User talk:Tim!/Archive 13

Hi Tim!
You welcomed me to WP and said I coudl ask you if I had questions. Now I have one! Someone deleted the DVD covers that I had added to List of Da Ali G Show DVD Releases citing WP:NFCC as the reason why it is not allowd on WP - is this correct? I feel that teh DVD covers add greatly to the list, giving a visual reference to the DVD releases in question. I accept that if it is against policy, they must go, but I think that they are helpful. I just wanted to get your opinion. As those DVD cover images are not being used in that article now, they are now marked for deletion next thursday [10/18]

Many thanks in advance! Etron81 17:14, 12 October 2007 (UTC)

sorry about that tim! I didn't realize the extent of the damage I was causing with my frivolous dr.who karate jokes. HAHAHAHA I actually thought that it wasn't allowing me to make an edit as this was my first edit, thus the repetitive nature of the postings LOL! I never would have dreamed a Doctor Who fan would've caught that edit so quickly especially the John Pertwee karate bit! Its a good thing your not a 'keeping up appearances' fan eh? eh? HAHAHA LOL! adamac —Preceding unsigned comment added by Adamac (talk • contribs) 09:38, 26 October 2007 (UTC)

Richard Curtis page move
Hi Tim, I've just noticed that User:VanTucky has moved the page about the writer Richard Curtis to Richard Curtis (screenwriter) because he's made a page about an identically named American politician. This appears to have caused a bit of a problem due to all the long-standing links going to Richard Curtis. I've turned it into a disambig page because it was just confusing otherwise, but ideally, I suspect it would be best to put the better-known person back to its original place. Obviously only admins can do that and I was wondering what your opinion is? Bob talk 22:03, 4 November 2007 (UTC)

Topic article rule
Hi Tim

I have just restored some categories which you removed from 1789 in Ireland and a few related articles. The Topic article rule says that such articles should not be only in the eponymous category. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 15:14, 24 November 2007 (UTC)


 * Thanks for your reply on my talk. I have replied there: see User talk:BrownHairedGirl. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 11:01, 26 November 2007 (UTC)

Thanks Tim!
Thanks for sticking the Wolves of Paris article in the History of Paris category! I've always been terrible at categories. At least maybe more than a few people will see it now. Bearerofthecup 11:42, 2 December 2007 (UTC)

Corporal Killings
That reference for the telegraph you used in the lead refers to three people convicted of which one had their conviction quashed, the other two are not those convicted for the killings themselves. My concern about the use of the reference is that none of these three or their case are mentioned in the main body of article, so their case shouldn't be used in the intro as it confuses the reader. So either it is removed from the intro or the case is included in the main body.--Padraig (talk) 12:20, 26 December 2007 (UTC)

Requests for adminship/Elonka 3
Thank you for your support in my RfA. It was definitely a dramatic debate, that landed on WP:100! I paid close attention to everything that was said, and, where possible, I will try to incorporate the (constructive) criticism towards being a better administrator. I'm taking things slowly for now, partially because of the holidays and all the off-wiki distractions. :) I'm also working my way through the New admin school and double-checking the relevant policies, and will gradually phase into the use of the new tools.  My main goals are to help out with various backlogs, but I also fully intend to keep on writing articles, as there are several more that I definitely want to get to WP:FA status! Thanks again, and have a great new year, --Elonka 18:15, 6 January 2008 (UTC)
