User talk:The Ink Daddy!

You are now a Reviewer
Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, is currently undergoing a two-month trial scheduled to end 15 August 2010.

Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under pending changes. Pending changes is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial. The list of articles with pending changes awaiting review is located at Special:OldReviewedPages.

When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.

If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Courcelles (talk) 18:02, 18 June 2010 (UTC)

Brooklyn Nets
This is concerning the attachment of the Return of the Secaucus 7 internal link to the nickname "Secaucus Seven" in the Brooklyn Nets article. The connection was made to reflect the movie title being the inspiration for the moniker. Attempted to find out if those seven New Jersey-based investors were based in Secaucus but had no success. They could've easily been based in Hoboken or Tenafly or Passaic. Also tried to find the actual basis of the nickname, also with no success. Absolutely convinced that the movie title was behind the nickname despite the film's plot being totally irrelevant to the Nets and its investors at the time. It was just too convenient for those clever folks who throw nicknames around. Ron Jaworski's "Jaws" moniker is a shortened version of his last name; strongly doubt if he ever had a habit of emerging from the water to scare the bejesus out of his teammates. Additionally, if the selection of Secaucus was random, it could've easily been the "Short Hills Seven," too. This should explain my edit. Looking forward to your response. The Ink Daddy!

 * This link to the movie doesn't belong here until reliable sources are found and confirm the nickname's connection to the movie. Just because you're "absolutely convinced" doesn't mean anything without reliable sources. Although, this probably should be taken to Brooklyn Nets. Maybe someone with knowledge about this nickname will come there and tell what is what. – Sabbatino (talk) 10:17, 10 April 2016 (UTC)

Suggestion
I suggest that if you move the NCAA userboxes to different galleries that you should do the same with the categories. And can you please make the userboxes first, before putting the name in the gallery. It looks like the userbox was deleted. Catfurball (talk) 22:10, 3 May 2022 (UTC)

Cyr
Please note that disambiguation pages like Cyr are meant to help readers find a specific existing article quickly and easily. For that reason, they have guidelines that are different from articles. From the Disambiguation dos and don'ts you should:


 * Only list articles that readers might reasonably be looking for
 * Use short sentence fragment descriptions, with no punctuation at the end
 * Use exactly one navigable link ("blue link") in each entry that mentions the title being disambiguated
 * Only add a "red link" if used in existing articles, and include a "blue link" to an appropriate article
 * Do not pipe links (unless style requires it) – keep the full title of the article visible
 * Do not insert external links or references - Wikipedia is not a business directory

Thank you. Leschnei (talk) 12:12, 13 September 2022 (UTC)
