British/American spelling
Hi. Maybe there is a Wikipedia policiy I don't know about...but just to let you know that 'realise' is the British (and original) spelling of the US 'realize'...so its not really worth changing. Good to see another Gamecube fan, you know they have taken the Gamecube games out of most shops over here now...:( Kernow 21:38, 13 March 2006 (UTC)


 * Hey. Yeah, I figured that "realise" was the British spelling, but I think it was inconsistent throughout the article so I made sure it was spelled the same each time. Really a trivial thing, but I was bored. A shame about the Gamecube, but we've still got Twilight Princess to look forward to. tktktk 00:09, 14 March 2006 (UTC)

Cowboy Bebop
Hey, no problem with the external links, I'm glad it was resolved. I was able to find a bit of code that should make that sort of thing easier for you in the future.

* and * will display the following respectively.



The number in either of these cases is taken from the URL of the show you are looking to link to. In the case of IMDB you just have to remove the tt from the beginning, as this code compensates for that. Hewinsj (talk) 13:30, 19 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Ah, I see. Thanks for your help. tktktk (talk) 14:19, 19 May 2009 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of PS3 exclusives
A tag has been placed on PS3 exclusives, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion debate, such as at articles for deletion. Under the specified criteria, where an article has substantially identical content to that of an article deleted after debate, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.  Zoo Fari  00:16, 23 May 2009 (UTC)

Deadliest Sea
Hey! Just wanted to say thanks for your contribs to Deadliest Sea. First time I've started my own article, and I appreciate the help! Lekoman (talk) 02:43, 23 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Absolutely. Glad to be of assistance. tktktk (talk) 08:02, 27 July 2009 (UTC)

Propolis
Hi. I put "Human Use" into the headers because propolis clearly has uses and health benefits for the bees themselves, so I thought that to assume that "use" only means "human use" represents an overly human POV. What was your reason for taking this out again? --RichardVeryard (talk) 18:24, 28 July 2009 (UTC)


 * Hey RichardVeryard. Sorry for the confusion; see my response on the talk page. tktktk (talk) 03:06, 29 July 2009 (UTC)

I wanted to say thanks for the hand with the article (and using the signature function). I found a subject (Cowboy Bebop) that I know quite a bit about and have been busy trying to clean things up. Didn't really know what I'm doing but I'm getting there. You've been a big help. --MrsSpooky 13:55, 14 September 2009 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by MrsSpooky (talk • contribs)

Conspiracy journalism
Thanks for your observations. The page needed more establishment for its context. Hopefully you will continue to provide inputs! Jettparmer (talk) 17:09, 30 September 2009 (UTC)

Help with dermatology-related content
Are you interested in dermatology-related content? If so, I am always looking for more help at the dermatology task force, particularly with our new Bolognia push 2009!  Perhaps you would you be able to help us? ---kilbad (talk) 21:10, 17 October 2009 (UTC)
 * I don't know if edited a dermatology-related page or something, but if I did it was just coincidence. Sorry, but no, I'm not particularly interested in dermatology. — tk tk  tk  21:17, 17 October 2009 (UTC)

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) 17:52, 18 June 2010 (UTC)

Hi! I've cleaned this article up to Wikipedia standards and I was curious if you could help, or at least bring more contributors who are interested in the subject.-- Gniniv (talk) 10:37, 10 September 2010 (UTC)

Your work on Widow's Peak article
Thank you for your recent work on Widow's Peak. I revamped the article several months ago and unreferenced examples keep creeping back in. I have removed some, but wonder if I'm too strict on the insistance of using referenced material; you've reinforced my belief that ONLY referenced material should be used.

It'll be interesting to see if your notes help.

Again, thank you. Bettymnz4 (talk) 13:42, 20 January 2011 (UTC)


 * No problem, happy to help.


 * To answer your question: On the one hand, there are certainly cases where unreferenced information is better than none at all. However, the "Villains" section of widow's peak is basically a "popular culture" section, and those tend to attract a lot of users who want to add their favorite characters, shows, and so on. For that reason, I often remove unreferenced material from them. Holding them to a higher standard keeps them from growing out of proportion with the rest of the article. However, before deleting it's sometimes a good idea to do a quick Google search to see if any reliable sources are readily available.


 * By the way, you might consider changing that section's title to "In fiction" or "In popular culture", especially since I'm pretty sure Eddie Munster isn't a villain. — tk tk  tk  17:01, 20 January 2011 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the suggestion, I'll change the section heading to "In popular culture".
