Hello
Please say you're back for good! We desperately need you!!! Have you seen the state of the EastEnders articles? anemone │ projectors  15:49, 16 January 2008 (UTC)
 * I don't want to jinx it but I should have internet access at home sometime this week, and then I'll be back for good :) I'm out of practice though, I keep forgetting to type and ~ and do edit summaries etc! -Trampikey(talk)(contribs) 15:50, 16 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Don't worry, you'll soon get the hang of it again! :) anemone  │ projectors  15:53, 16 January 2008 (UTC)

Fair use rationales
Easy to use: Rationale. Just make sure you put the right article name next time ;) anemone  │ projectors  00:53, 22 January 2008 (UTC)


 * Seriously, it's really simple. Much better than copying and pasting an old (and very generic) rationale from another image. anemone  │ projectors  22:02, 6 February 2008 (UTC)


 * I don't know what to write for "portion", "replaceabilty" and "purpose" -Trampikey(talk)(contribs) 22:12, 6 February 2008 (UTC)


 * I always leave "portion" blank anyway. Replaceability is the "no free equivalent is available or could be created" bit and the purpose is the "identifies the subject of the article"/"specifically illustrates a relevant point in the article" bit. Maybe it wasn't as simple as I assumed. For the optional section at the end I always put the "the image is not used in a manner that would likely replace the original market role of the original copyrighted media" bit. In the description bit I always try to say who the character and actor is, and in the source bit you should put the date of the episode. You should try to do that anyway, even if you don't use that template. Although the main thing is getting the article name in there somewhere, which you do, so it doesn't really matter if you don't want to use the template. It's just a suggestion really, so feel free to ignore this. anemone  │ projectors  22:33, 6 February 2008 (UTC)

If you do insist of ignoring this template, could you at least use the appropriate bits of text from the WPEE FUR template? The rationales we used to use are totally rubbish. anemone │ projectors  19:50, 16 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Thanks :) anemone  │ projectors  00:25, 17 February 2008 (UTC)

Ye olde EE Infobox
I don't fully understand; I thought the adjustments for the infoboxes would be a bit more of a permanent fixture. I think it looks a bit neater and not so jumbled, but if it's only on certain articles, I can understand. I was also thinking to employ this technique on the Emmerdale ones Conquistador2k6 26 January 10:47 (UTC)
 * Infobox EastEnders character 2 is actually better than the original and is used on more articles than just Pauline Fowler. The original one is good for the list articles, and the second one is good for articles with a lot of information in the infobox. anemone  │ projectors  14:56, 26 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Also one of your edit summaries said "both work fine" so I don't know why you felt the need to revert. anemone  │ projectors  14:58, 26 January 2008 (UTC)

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions in a content dispute within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing. Please do not repeatedly revert edits, but use the talk page to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. If necessary, pursue dispute resolution. S M S  Talk 19:28, 31 January 2008 (UTC)

The Monologue kicked about 20 kinds of Arse. I didn't think EE could pull off a One-hander,but with someone who gives 110% like June Brown, it HAD to be good. If they get screwed over for an award; I say we all march down there and kick up the place! :) Also, your final resolution on the infoboxes?

 * The British Soap Awards. Nana Moon won it in 2005/2006. -Trampikey(talk)(contribs) 23:22, 31 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Zoe and Kat won it too. A two-hander and a special episode. Dot is bound to win. anemone  │ projectors  23:23, 31 January 2008 (UTC)

By the way, I think we should mention somewhere (not sure where) that the closing credits were different to normal and used "Pretty Baby" instead of the usual theme tune. anemone │ projectors  00:46, 1 February 2008 (UTC)

Are you interested in being one? I think it would be handy to have two admins watching over EE articles, and youve been here ages.Gung <font color="0047AB">adin 17:36, 3 February 2008 (UTC)
 * To be honest I think you'd be a better one. I have too bad a history on here... -Trampikey(talk)(contribs) 17:38, 3 February 2008 (UTC)
 * lol, ive been warned for being incivil about 20 times over the last few months, 19 of those were from Elonka (check out my talk and Pauline archives). Plus, if someone started bashing me on the RFA, i'd bash them back, i.e. i'm not a good candidate for being an admin. You know lots about the functioning of wiki and rules and you do a lot of vandal watching. All I do is extend articles, and they will say I dont need admin tools for that. I think we should get you nominated, maybe AP could do it.<font color="FF1493">Gung <font color="0047AB">adin 17:49, 3 February 2008 (UTC)

 * See here for my previous RfA. -Trampikey(talk)(contribs) 18:03, 3 February 2008 (UTC)
 * That was ages ago. you only got 30 opposers, and most of the stuff they complained about you have corrected. I cant believe people oppose based on edit summaries. That thing is like a job interview!<font color="FF1493">Gung <font color="0047AB">adin 18:20, 3 February 2008 (UTC)

Cool, on an unrelated note, where do you get all your OOU sources from? I'm trying to do an OOU section for Mo Harris, but don't know where to start looking! -Trampikey(talk)(contribs) 18:31, 3 February 2008 (UTC)


 * This is a good free archive which has loads of old articles. Here's another  it's pay for access, but it gives snippets, so you may find something of use in a search. Google archive  sometimes comes up with some good stuff. Otherwise it's worthwhile searching through newspaper websites, like The Guardian, Sun and Mirror, Daily Mail etc. Putting in Mo Harris EastEnders into the search bar, and seeing if a review or interview comes up.<font color="FF1493">Gung <font color="0047AB">adin  18:55, 3 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Thanks. How's the admin thing going? -Trampikey(talk)(contribs) 19:10, 3 February 2008 (UTC)
 * I'm writing you a summary now, bigging up all your achievements. It's very complicated. Ive run you through wannabe Kate's tool to get your edit count and everything. I dunno if i'm doing it right, lol. This may take some time.<font color="FF1493">Gung <font color="0047AB">adin 19:20, 3 February 2008 (UTC)


 * It's really hard to answer the questions because I want to sound good, but whatever you write can't be taken back as it'll always be in the edit history! They hated my answers on my last RfA, so I'm really wary! -Trampikey(talk)(contribs) 20:22, 3 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Dont worry about it, they can always ask you to elaborate. You've matured in your outlook since then anyway, and you know more about wiki in general. Anyway, if it fails, it's not like it matters. We can just nominate you again in a few months :) <font color="FF1493">Gung <font color="0047AB">adin 21:11, 3 February 2008 (UTC)

Trampikey, hi, just my $0.02 of advice, it's pretty obvious that the RfA isn't going to pass. You might want to consider withdrawing and just closing it, rather than putting yourself through this for another week. :/ Up to you though. --Elonka 02:13, 5 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Thanks, Elonka. I know it probably won't pass; how would I go about it if I decided to withdraw? -Trampikey(talk)(contribs) 16:03, 5 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Pretty much the reverse of accepting. Go and cross out your "I accept" language with and tags, and add a line that explains that you are choosing to withdraw at this time.  Say as much in your edit summary as well.  Also remove the listing from the main RfA page.  Then either you or one of the clerks can go in and do the formal "archiving" a bit later, and it'll be over. --Elonka 20:59, 5 February 2008 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of Regina Freedman
A tag has been placed on Regina Freedman requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article 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 article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Regina Freedman
A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Regina Freedman, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the  notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. If you agree with the deletion of the article, and you are the only person who has made substantial edits to the page, please add  to the top of Regina Freedman.

Fair use rationale for Image:Alistairmcgownasdot.jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Alistairmcgownasdot.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

EastEnders on hold (GA sweep)
I have reassessed this article as part of WikiProject Good articles/Project quality task force. We are currently revisiting all listed Good articles in an effort to ensure that they continue to meet the Good article criteria.

In reviewing the article, I came across some issues that may need to be addressed; I have left a detailed summary on the article's talk page. As a result I have put EastEnders's GA status on hold. This will remain in place for a week or so before a final decision is taken as to the article's status.

I've left this notice here because, from the article history, you have been a significant contributor. If you no longer edit this article, please accept my apologies and feel free to disregard this message ;)
