Note I've uploaded the TV version without the year by mistake, I've requested a file move. --  [[ axg  ◉  talk   ]] 18:58, 4 October 2012 (UTC)


 * Top man! Where would I be without my knight in shining armour.  Thank you ever so much AxG, I appreciate it sincerely.   Wesley ♦Mouse 19:01, 4 October 2012 (UTC)
 * File has been moved :) --  [[ axg  ◉  talk   ]] 19:02, 4 October 2012 (UTC)


 * How come it doesn't allow me to add the maps into the infoboxes?  Wesley ♦Mouse 19:03, 4 October 2012 (UTC)


 * Ahhh the move has cocked up. We've forgotten there is already a file with the same name that contains the contest logo.   Wesley ♦Mouse 19:06, 4 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Yes I've just realised :o --  [[ axg  ◉  talk   ]] 19:10, 4 October 2012 (UTC)

About ABU Radio Song Festival 2012
Hello, I inserted a page, ABU Radio Song Festival 2012, but you reverted. I went to that the concert and saw who won it. Certainty, the winner was Bily Acoustie from South Korea. Danielle just received 'GOLD AWARD' which was gave for second place, NOT FOR A WINNER!


 * Firstly, please be civil when posting comments on editor's talk pages, using upper case letters like you did constitutes shouting and is most impolite way to conduct behaviour, especially if you aim to receive cooperation from a fellow Wikipedian.


 * Secondly, even though you attended the festival physically and witnessed who won, doesn't mean that alone qualifies for your content to be included, as that would be in serious violation of no original research. Everything that you find on any Wikipedia article is contributed based on information that is easily obtained via reliable sources which are published so that the content can be verified independently.  The reason I removed your input was because you didn't provide a citation (reliable source) to verify your input, and thus made the inclusion original research.  Thankfully, the ABU did publish the correct results an hour or so after you made the alteration, which meant that A) we now had a citation from a reliable source, that could B) verify what the article shown, and thus C) avoided original research.  Cheers!   Wesley ♦Mouse 19:23, 12 October 2012 (UTC)

Language of the Belarusian JESC 2012 entry
Hello Wesley! I have edited the JESC 2012 article to change the language of the Belarus entry lyrics to Russian as its current state is erroneous. You can see official lyrics in the Cyrillic script on the Official JESC 2012 lyrics page. The easiest way to distinguish three Eastern Slavic language is to find the I-sounds (Russian uses only И and Ы, Ukrainian uses И, І and Ї, while Belarusian alphabet limits I-sounds to І and Ы). You can see that the lyrics contain И and Ы - a set that can only be found in the Russian language. I haven't found any official sources that the song is composed in the Belarusian language. Also, I 'm a native Russian speaker and I can tell Russian from Belarusian. Take care! Maxim. --Mukaltin (talk) 15:40, 21 October 2012 (UTC)


 * There were 3 or 4 sources that I remember seeing that stated the language was in Belarusian and not Russian, but I can't for the life of me remember off hand, as I have since been involved in a hit and run accident where a car purposely knocked me down on a busy road, and has caused some memory issues. Looking at another source though [ESCKaz they have listed the song as Russian, so I suppose that should be enough to cite and verify the language until we know more at a later date.

Re:Infobox Eurovision
Calm down :) I've just tested it and see no changes whatsoever to any articles. The user removed it from the 'logo' and the old 'map' (which does not generate the 'i'), 'map year' is the perimeter which we now use. --  [[ axg  ◉  talk   ]] 20:27, 23 October 2012 (UTC)


 * Ohhh that's OK then. I get very protective over the templates, as I remember just how much tension they create when people just start altering them willy-nilly without 1) stating in the edit summary first time around and/or 2) notifying the project talk page.  The massive arguments over templates 7 months ago still still gives me nightmares.   Wesley ♦Mouse 20:32, 23 October 2012 (UTC)

I removed the BLPPROD from the article. A BLPPROD cannot be placed if any reference is present. Bgwhite (talk) 05:31, 24 October 2012 (UTC)
 * But the reference that is present is citing the award won, and not citing anything about person. If you view the source it doesn't even clarify what it is citing.  Nor does the source even verify the artist's date of birth or anything.  In fact the details on the source don't verify anything that is on the article.  11:38, 24 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Her own website is present. Unfortunately, this is enough to not place the BLPPROD tag.  I don't like it, but that is what was decided.  Bgwhite (talk) 17:05, 24 October 2012 (UTC)
 * How bizarre that is then, because the guidance on sources state a source needs to verify what it is citing. Yet the source on that particular article is citing the awards section, yet upon reading the source it doesn't verify what its citing.  That confused me. Anyhow, I suppose I should do the right thing and help to improve the article rather than PROD it.  I'm not normally a prodder lol.   Wesley ♦Mouse 12:30, 25 October 2012 (UTC)
 * I've noticed you are more of a lover than a prodder :) Of course I do have a wife, so I don't exactly remember what love is. :)
 * It is very bizarre and I don't understand it. The reliable source issue came up again recently and again last year. Some editors are vehemently opposed.  The last discussion is  here.  If it makes you feel any better, in the past month, two admins and one bureaucrat didn't know about it either.


 * I noticed that you also removed the ProjectEurovision banner from that article's talk page when you don't have the right to do that. Per guidance at WP:PROJGUIDE (which was pointed out to me weeks ago by the Project Council team, it is upto members of that project to decide if an article is of interest to the project or not.  Jae Ang participated in the ABU Song Festivals this month.  Those festivals fall under the scope of ProjectEurovision, and therefore any articles relating to participants/songs also fall within the scope of the project.  I have restored the banner.   Wesley ♦Mouse 12:00, 24 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Anybody can add or remove tags. Sorry, I had no idea a Korean song festival would be part of Eurovision.  Doesn't make sense, but I guess you have your reasons. Bgwhite (talk) 17:05, 24 October 2012 (UTC)
 * I must disagree on that one, because the team at Project Council advised me that anyone can add a banner, but it is ultimately the decision of the project to whom the banner is for, whether they decide to keep it there or remove it. And that is also verified at WP:PROJGUIDE.  I think if anyone would know the guidance on that, would be the people at Project Council.  And it wasn't really a Korean Song Festival, but a festival for the Asia-Pacific Broadcasting Union.  As there is no Project Asiavision yet, and the festival concepts are similar to that of Eurovision, then it made sense to include them into the scope of ProjectEurovision.  Even though one would assume that because the Project's name is Eurovision that they would deal only with Eurovision Song Contest, but that isn't the case, as the project deal with Eurovision Network (which includes contests/festivals of a similar concept too).  Hope this helps to provide understanding.   Wesley ♦Mouse 12:30, 25 October 2012 (UTC)
 * I agree with you to a point. I would add as long as it follows the project's guidelines. I've had members of a project add their tags to BLPs.  Problem being is that WP Film, WP Sports and WP Universities don't include people.  I recently had a member of WP Germany saying I was tagging wrong, problem being is I was tagging what the guidelines said to do.
 * I would rephrase it saying a project's member can add/remove tags as long as they are following the project's guidelines. WP Eurovision decided ABU was part of the project, so I was wrong in removing it and you were right in re-adding it... didn't matter if you were/weren't a member.
 * The highpoint of Eurovision has to be Lordi. That was entertainment.  The lowpoint was the Russians last year.  I'm still trying to forget those grannies. Bgwhite (talk) 05:43, 26 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Ahh someone who agrees with Lordi and disagrees with the Grannies. I share the same feelings with you on that.  Helena Paparizou was just as hot too.  While I was doing volunteering at London 2012 Olympic & Paralympic games, I actually came across a group of grannies who were a spitting image of the Russians, and I almost collapsed in shock, but then realised they were not the real Russian Grannies.

San Marino @ESC: Reply
I based my decision on what happened for Ukranian participation (see here and there).

Now it's confirmed and there aren't no more problems. --Gce (talk) 16:18, 15 November 2012 (UTC)

ABU x song festival 2012 articles
Hi Wesley Mouse, I'm sorry almost a month has gone by and I've not yet started. I will make some time this weekend (I've got an extra 1 & 3/4 hours as there is no Inspector Montabano on the TV) and will leave a reply on my talkpage (as per yellow box - top right), by Monday. Pyrotec (talk) 20:19, 16 November 2012 (UTC)


 * I totally forgotten about this to be honest, preoccupied trying to gather together 217 London 2012 volunteers to participate in the London New Year's Day Parade, and that isn't an easy task when a) I don't live in London, and b) I'm not even parading in it myself.  Wesley ♦Mouse 18:40, 17 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Well I'll leave you to organise it then. Best of Luck. (a) and (b) also apply to me, but I might watch it on TV. By the way, those two articles appear to have a good chance at GAN. I've not checked references; and reviews much represent the personality of the reviewer: there are some good reviewers, bad, competent and incompetent/misguided, and every point in between these four extremities so its the luck of the draw.

Hi
Just wanted to drop by and give a friendly hello, and say that I am semi-active on the site right now as I have a problem with my computer which will hopefully be fixed within the next week or so. I find it annoying and I can only do edits a few times a week right now. But on the other hand it has been quite good and relaxing to be on a semi-break from Wikipedia. Then when I have my computer back and working I can do edits with renewed enthusiasm. Cheers.--BabbaQ (talk) 18:28, 18 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Just wanted to let you know that user Erica has started to do her gossip magazine edits again on Paris Hilton. This user seem to be unwilling to learn and take suggestions to heart again and again editingthe Paris Hilton article into a gossip magazine article. --BabbaQ (talk) 17:07, 23 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Sorry for the late response. Been busy the last couple of weeks organising a few events and I've started a new job last weekend at the pub too.  On my next day off I will have a look at what Erica has been doing.   Wesley ♦Mouse 17:17, 23 November 2012 (UTC)
 * OK, well nice to hear from you anyway. OK thank you.--BabbaQ (talk) 18:02, 23 November 2012 (UTC)
