Re:Psych

Thanks for agreeing. I've seen people add statements like those and eventually they are almost always deleted due to the original research policy. :) And thanks for the userpage comment. Welcome, by the way! -→Buchanan-Hermit ™/?! 00:26, 11 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Re:Shawn Spencer Infobox

No problem. Actually, I'm glad to see someone working on some of the new summer television series. Your account seems to be new, but you seem to be catching on to things very quickly, having accomplished quite a bit already. As for hardcoded infoboxes on Veronica Mars character articles, I have no idea why that is, as someone made a custom infobox just for the series. Perhaps I may get motivated to do something about it. Anyway, good work, and happy editing! Dancter 16:43, 11 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I'll leave your style, but consistency is not something you claim as a reason for reverting. It's almost never consistent. – Someguy0830 (Talk | contribs) 20:47, 21 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Centering is ok for a field, but not so much for the options in that field. Better they align left. – Someguy0830 (Talk | contribs) 20:50, 21 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

That it is, that it is, but it also gets rid of the annoying empty inbetween space caused by center aligning. It's ok to center if your different sections are titled up top. Doing it with side-placed titles causes the fileds with a smaller number of options to get stuck in the middle. Works better when it's right next to the field. – Someguy0830 (Talk | contribs)

"Arc Significance"

First off, like I said in my edit summary, "Arc Significance" implies that the arc is either complete or entirely contained in that episode. Second, Capitalizing the s in significance is wrong, though it's a moot point. Third, "Significance in arc" works much better because it clearly relates the episode's significance to that of the overall arc.

Also, picking an arbitray point and saying "this is how it goes" won't work. Not every episode article has to look and work exactly the same, and most articles don't. There will always be variation. I, for one, would prefer to work with wording and styling that is perfectly clear rather than strictly adhere to the rules of a nearly dead wikiproject. – Someguy0830 (Talk | contribs) 23:21, 22 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

TV Barnstar

No problem! The barnstar proposal by User:TrackerTV was inactive for two days that I just needed a "boost". So then I just sent messages to all of the TV related WikiProjects.--Ed 20:55, 27 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The debate seems to be pointing to Image#4. Look at the discussion here and tell me what you think.--Ed 17:57, 3 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Vanished

I'm adding categories for all Vanished articles, including one each for the actors and characters. Robert Moore 02:53, 13 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Fair Use Deletions

I was messaged several times by some well meaning folks and some robots. Some folks have questioned a few photos I uploaded from press kits and labelled as fair use. I think on the whole that it is just better if I leave the photo uploading to those who know better. I took down their messages not because they weren't appreciated, but because they were red and unsightly. They can be seen in the history of this article should someone be dying to read them.Transcendentalstate 17:27, 14 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thank You

You are the nicest person on Wikipedia, myself included. Thank you Ice9Tea 00:19, 17 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Unreferenced BLPs

Hello Transcendentalstate! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot alerting you that 1 of the articles that you created is an Unreferenced Biography of a Living Person. Please note that all biographies of living persons must be sourced. If you were to add reliable, secondary sources to this article, it would greatly help us with the current 9 article backlog. Once the article is adequately referenced, please remove the {{unreferencedBLP}} tag. Here is the article:

Nathan Fields - Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL

Thanks!--DASHBot (talk) 18:05, 2 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Nathan Fields

The article Nathan Fields has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

No significant sources, no real claim of notability.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{dated prod}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Will Beback talk 01:29, 1 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification

Hi. In Andrew Skeet (musician), you recently added a link to the disambiguation page Conductor (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 11:48, 17 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Laszlo Dubrovay

Hello Transcendentalstate,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Laszlo Dubrovay for deletion, because it seems to be copied from another source.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to rewrite it in your own words, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. (t) Josve05a (c) 19:23, 21 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned non-free image File:Jo Lupo 1.jpg

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:Jo Lupo 1.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Stefan2 (talk) 21:38, 17 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

File permission problem with File:AndrewSkeet.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:AndrewSkeet.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.

If you are the copyright holder for this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en@wikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Kelly ^hi! 12:03, 2 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
