==[[Television Broadcasts Limited]]==

I've had to revert your edits on this article; the "obvious spelling and grammar errors" weren't, of course; they were perfectly correct British English, which you changed to U.S. English.  Articles should be left in the style of English in which you find them unless their subject matter is relevant to a certain style (you can change to "programme" to "program" in an article on U.S. television) or the style is inconsistent (in which case it should be made uniform in line with the style used by the original editor). --[[User:Mel Etitis|Mel Etitis]]  ([[User talk:Mel Etitis|<span style="color:green;">Μελ Ετητης</span>)]] 14:16, 24 September 2005 (UTC)

==[[User_talk:Zerida|Comments]]==

Thanks for your kind words. Glad to be of help :-) - [[User:Zerida|Zerida]] 09:06, 29 January 2006 (UTC)

Tutmosis, I want to lend a hand in adding to the Bay Area Hip hop scene. My personal interests are the [[Hyphy]] movement and [[Thizz]], but there is sooooo damn much culture and what not, from the 80's with [[Too Short]] - Thizz Nation now. I figure, you being the king of the wiki Hop hop project, you might know (or have advice on) how to put together a team on getting this on there. As for as the to do list, subdivisions and what not. What would be the best way to learn about how to put something like this together? Thanks for any advice you may have. [[User:Carlitosrosario|Carlos]] 18:41, 14 May 2006 (UTC)

==Dragon Ball names==
There was a discussion awhile back (I think it was on one of the category pages) and it was agreed to use the original Japanese names where possible. [[User:Beowulph|Beowulph]] 21:56, 2 February 2006 (UTC)

==List==
Ah okay, I get what you're saying; a merged list for each category of characters. I responded on the page :) [[User:Deckiller|Deckiller]] 03:01, 14 February 2006 (UTC)

== My Changes ==

: No Problem, I think that when I changed those pages in the begining, I should have warned you. By the way, I think that the pages look better now. [[User:Muchi|Muchi]]

== Template ==
Hey, a lot of us have agreed to place the SWProject template on the project pages that don't have any significant problems; just thought I'd give you a heads up. [[User:Deckiller|Deckiller]] 19:59, 21 February 2006 (UTC)
:Oh it's okay, most of those articles are good ones anyway. [[User:Deckiller|Deckiller]] 20:03, 21 February 2006 (UTC)
::Yeah, most of the articles you tagged are decent articles. [[User:Deckiller|Deckiller]] 20:07, 21 February 2006 (UTC)
:::Sure, sounds good. [[User:Deckiller|Deckiller]] 20:38, 21 February 2006 (UTC)

== JA Template ==
Hey, thanks for the comment. I just used the color scheme from most of the other SWU templates, but I think Wookiee is going through and making them all black and yellow. [[User:Deckiller|Deckiller]] 20:26, 22 February 2006 (UTC)
:What do you think about the character section? Think we should add a few more/take away Ona Nobis and Zan Arbor? [[User:Deckiller|Deckiller]] 20:34, 22 February 2006 (UTC)
:Or we could just give them a section in the minor villains lists, since I think Zan arbor also appears in a few other sources. [[User:Deckiller|Deckiller]] 20:46, 22 February 2006 (UTC)

== Spelling corrections ==

I'm sorry to be so blunt but it seems very strange to me for somebody to revert a spelling correction to an article without checking how the word is actually spelled. I'd just like to understand what would cause you to feel it's appropriate to revert good changes without checking that the revert was actually something bad.  Receive is actually spelled this way, and not 'recieve', as a quick look in any dictionary will tell you.  I'm not trying to be rude, I'm just trying to understand what compels a person to do such a thing, as it seems utterly bizarre to me. -- [[User:Rediahs|Rediahs]] 07:34, 23 February 2006 (UTC)
:It wasn't me, but it's okay, I'm not angry, I was just fairly confused.  Peace! -- [[User:Rediahs|Rediahs]] 22:47, 23 February 2006 (UTC)

==Artist Response==
Well I'm looking for something rather simple and square to go in{{tl|Star Wars Portal}} and/or {{tl|User Star Wars WikiProject}}. I can't be to complex because of the small size. It kinda of needs to be our Wikiproject's logo in a sense. Try using [[:Image:Nuvola apps package games.png]] for inspiration. [[User:Jedi6|Jedi6]] 04:40, 26 February 2006 (UTC)

==Star Wars voting==
Please make sure you [[Portal:Star Wars/Vote|vote]] for the Star Wars selected article, list and picture by Monday. [[User:Jedi6|Jedi6]] 10:49, 26 February 2006 (UTC)

== MoS ==
Hey, I've been taking some notes and whatnot. I'll try and get a draft up tonight, but that depends on whether or not I work on my college stuff :) [[User:Deckiller|Deckiller]] 00:03, 27 February 2006 (UTC)
:Yeah, that's a cool box. By the way, here is your edit count: [http://tools.wikimedia.de/~kate/cgi-bin/count_edits?user=Tutmosis&dbname=enwiki_p] ^_^. You should post that on your userpage. [[User:Deckiller|Deckiller]] 00:10, 27 February 2006 (UTC)
:It also works like a search engine. Here's mine: [http://tools.wikimedia.de/~kate/cgi-bin/count_edits?user=Deckiller&dbname=enwiki_p]. [[User:Deckiller|Deckiller]] 00:12, 27 February 2006 (UTC)
::Thanks ^_^ I might go for the big 10k tonight, not sure yet :) [[User:Deckiller|Deckiller]] 00:17, 27 February 2006 (UTC)
:::I edit all around, basically. My first major task was adding lots of information to [[Xenosaga]] and [[Xenogears]], merging all the information into lists, and so on. They still need a lot of cleanup, since I almost abandoned them for a time ^_^. Right now, I'm working on a template for King Crimson. [[User:Deckiller|Deckiller]] 00:26, 27 February 2006 (UTC)
:::: ^_^ Thanks, I see that you're a rising wikipedian too. I just finished that template, here it is: [[Template:King Crimson]]. [[User:Deckiller|Deckiller]] 00:39, 27 February 2006 (UTC)
::::: Thanks. It's the general navigation template for bands, so it was pretty easy to modify and add the albums. [[User:Deckiller|Deckiller]] 00:46, 27 February 2006 (UTC)
:::::: Lol, yeah. I need to archive my talkpage again pretty soon, anyway. [[User:Deckiller|Deckiller]] 00:49, 27 February 2006 (UTC)

==re:congrats==
Hey, thanks for the message ^_^. Sorry I haven't been around TOO much for the last two days, I've been on a SEMI-wikibreak, meaning only 40-50 edits per day :) That'll pick up soon. [[User:Deckiller|Deckiller]] 17:13, 1 March 2006 (UTC)

==Hey there==
Hey, nice work with the weapons/pronoun edits so far. Did you get a chance to read what I said about the video games on the talk? I think you'd probably be interested in giving me a hand with that. Thanks ^_^ [[User:Deckiller|Deckiller]] 22:20, 3 March 2006 (UTC)
:Cool. The only thing I recommend putting back is the sentence about disintegration for the disruptor rifle; I believe I read about that somewhere. [[User:Deckiller|Deckiller]] 22:31, 3 March 2006 (UTC)

== American/British Spelling ==
The old American vs. British style debate. Since Star Wars is an American product we would use American spelling. Also to check what links to a page just go to the first link on the left side of the page below the search bar. It says '''What links here''' or you can go to [[Special:Whatlinkshere/''pagename'']]. [[User:Jedi6|Jedi6]] 05:01, 4 March 2006 (UTC)

== New pages ==
I just created the [[Darksaber (novel)]] page, and a semi-complete [[Children of the Jedi]] page. Next up: [[The New Rebellion]]. Feel free to take a look and review ^_^ Talk to ya later. [[User:Deckiller|Deckiller]] 01:57, 5 March 2006 (UTC)
:Thanks! I think the Darksaber one should be a model novel page for the project; It is complete, and I was able to do it in under an hour. This format is a great way for us to pump out star wars novel pages in a short period of time ^_^ [[User:Deckiller|Deckiller]] 01:59, 5 March 2006 (UTC)
:By the way, any other novel pages you want to see created? [[User:Deckiller|Deckiller]] 02:03, 5 March 2006 (UTC)
::Hey. Yeah, I've been planning it out. I'm checking out your comment on the talkpage in a second (SWU fan club meeting right now ^_^) [[User:Deckiller|Deckiller]] 02:34, 5 March 2006 (UTC)

== 'The Price is Right' reedits == 

I removed the original paragraph because not only did it need to be broken down into several paragraphs, but was extraordinarily long and it seem to lack a neutral POV.  It can always be reverted by the Wikieditors or the original author if something was done incorrectly -- Cincgreen

:Mmm, [[Lego Star Wars: The Video Game]]. The edits seems to be strange, but assume good faith and assume the editor is trying to improve the article. Try to talk with them on their talk page (and encourage them to get a Wikipedia account). I'm not sure if it vandalism, because I don't know anything about the subject. The article's talk page may be another good place to discuss the changes - maybe someone who knows something about the matter can comment.--[[User:Commander Keane|Commander Keane]] 14:48, 19 March 2006 (UTC)

Sounds like a good idea.  I reverted your changes to the intro because, frankly, the [[hip hop culture]] page centers on a 1980's view of hip hop that ignores the fact that the music is the most notable thing these days.--[[User:Urthogie|Urthogie]] 08:06, 21 March 2006 (UTC)

== To Do list needs to be reformatted ==

I think each sub-section (specifically the stub list) needs to have their own section (the "==______==" header rather than the "===_____===" header). That way we can organize the stubs into seperate sub-catagories (i.e. album stubs, article stubs, etc.). What do you think?--chub 10:55, 23 March 2006 (UTC)

Hi Tutmosis. The way most portal colours are set is through a [[Portal:Box-header|box-header]] sub-page. The [[Portal:New Zealand|New Zealand Portal]] colours can be edited from [[Portal:New Zealand/box-header]]. Thus, for the portal you are trying to create, you need to create a box-header.

== Collaboration ==

I'm eager to nominate [[Illmatic]] (which is currently being nominated for [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_hip_hop/Collaboration hip hop collaboration of the week]) for FA-status, even though I feel that more can be done to improve it. I feel that with a collaborative effort from members of the hip hop wikiproject, we can bring up to FA status in no time. Do you think its time to close the votes for collaboration of the week, or should we leave it open for new members to weight their opinions in? --[[User:Chubdub|Chubdub]] 14:53, 15 April 2006 (UTC)

''''''design specific dates when next article voting will take place, unless we want it weekly.'''
* Considering that the amount of votes recieved are small and took place in a span of several weeks (2-3 weeks if I can recall) I don't think it should be weekly (atleast not until we gain more members). Perhaps the voting process may need to be done on a monthly basis? After all, bringing an article to FA status is quite tedious.
'''''Within a certain amount of days the article with the most votes wins.'''''
* see above

On further note, I think once a particular article has been selected, we should notify all the members of the collaborative effort. Thanks! --[[User:Chubdub|Chubdub]] 19:21, 15 April 2006 (UTC)

A new template should also be made to announce the current Collaboration, such as this:
{{CurrentCOTW}}--[[User:Chubdub|Chubdub]] 21:59, 15 April 2006 (UTC)

Looks great. Good Work! Have you made a time frame for when next article voting will take place? --[[User:Chubdub|Chubdub]] 15:25, 16 April 2006 (UTC)

Definetely!  A Hip hop peer review sound great. I'm certainly willing to be an active participant in that. Go for it!

On another note, how are things with recruiting new members to the project? I'd certainly be really to help --[[User:Chubdub|Chubdub]] 15:36, 16 April 2006 (UTC)


And will this peer review be accompanied with a rating sytem? --[[User:Chubdub|Chubdub]] 15:41, 16 April 2006 (UTC)

Hopefully, once the project becomes further established, hopefully individual members will be willing to assume a more active role. And yes, there is still an immense amount of work that needs to be done (see the To-Do list) before we see significant signs of improvement to individual articles. But right now, we need to continue establishing the project. As for the rating system/peer review, I think the whole criteria system (lead, substance, pictures, references) sounds great!  --[[User:Chubdub|Chubdub]] 15:54, 16 April 2006 (UTC)

:Honestly, I am not experienced enough to adress such topics. However, I think the obvious choice would be to post the announcement in the project's talkpage or send it to the project's most active members and try to get feedback from them. --[[User:Chubdub|Chubdub]] 16:10, 16 April 2006 (UTC)

Now that Illmatic has been inducted into FA-status, I think we should name [[rapping]] as our next collaboration and work on it in the coming weeks. Also, I believe we should create some sort of table which lists our featured articles with stars next to em... [[User:Chubdub|Chubdub]] 21:10, 4 May 2006 (UTC)

==Machine translation==

Hi, if you see the note on the talk page, I've been working on the article, and until problems (described in [[Wikipedia talk:Footnotes]]) are fixed in Cite.php, I'd like to keep using Footnotes3. There was also an HTML comment in the references section asking people to read the talk page before converting, I'm surprised you didn't see it. Anyway, if you'd really like to change the footnotes to Cite.php style, I'd ask you to look at [http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5885].

G'day there Tutmosis,

I appreciate your obvious strength of feeling [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Miscellany_for_deletion/User:General_Eisenhower/QRVS&diff=53620961&oldid=53571522 here], but comparing [[Wikipedia:Counter-Vandalism Unit|CVU]] members to [[Hitler]] was ''way'' out of line.  I'd appreciate it if, as a gesture of good faith, you struck out the comment.  Cheers, [[User:MarkGallagher|fuddlemark]] ([[User talk:MarkGallagher|befuddle me!]]) 11:01, 18 May 2006 (UTC)
:Thank you for doing that.  In response to your comments: it's not a matter of offending me (or any other person in particular); otherwise I could just say "hey, Tutmosis isn't here, I can say all the stuff that offends him now!"  It's a case of [[WP:CIVIL|being civil]] and [[WP:NPA|not making personal attacks]]; comparing those who want to delete a rather malformed and silly idea (note: I'm not among the ones arguing for deletion) to Hitler is rather uncivil, and could easily be taken as a personal attack.  I'm not always as civil as I should be myself, so I know how easy it is to shoot from the heart instead of the mind ... but it really makes everyone's time on Wikipedia a lot more pleasant if we're civil to each other.

Community Justice is no more. It has been reformed to [[Wikipedia:Concordia|Concordia]]. Membership has been transferred.

Concordia is an organization of editors on Wikipedia that strive to encourage civility and fair treatment among ''all'' editors in the Wikipedian community, from the [[Wikipedia:WikiGnome|Wikignome]] to the [[Wikiholic]]. The project was designed to have a friendly and helpful environment to support any unfortunate Wikipedians that have become victims of incivility, hostility, or continual disrespect.

We currently need help in getting going, and making the community understand our aims. We work for '''civility'''. Nothing more, nothing less.

If you have ideas, let us know at our talk page, or on the IRC channel. We aim to spread civility in every way we can.

Should you wish to unsubscribe to future newsletters, please add your name to [[Wikipedia:Concordia/Do Not Spam]].

== You have a impersonator! ==

It seems that user [[User:Tutmosis.]] mimics your user and talk pages and vandalizes articles on military ranks. It is a sockpuppet of the long-term vandal Roitr (see [[User:Roitr/sockpuppetry]])--[[User:Nixer|Nixer]] 09:54, 2 June 2006 (UTC)

== Your edits to a vandalized version ==

If you want to resize images and improve the table appearance, please do it with not vandalized version. The versions you've edited in [[Ranks of the People's Liberation Army Navy]] and [[Ranks of the People's Liberation Army Air Force]] were vandalized by Roitr and unfortunately we can not always manage to revert all his edits before other users modify them. His versions are wrong and completely different from the proper ones. He inserts bogus ranks in the tables as long as completely wrong correspondence of military ranks from different countries. He has IP addresses starting with 88.155, 88.152, 88.153 etc. You can see other his IPs and edit patterns in [[User:Roitr/sockpuppetry]].

It's the first edition of the WikiProject Star Wars newsletter, and yes, it's a semi-ripoff of the [[Esperenza]] newsletter. I think it's important to begin with some good news: ''[[Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones]]'', ''[[Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith]]'', and [[Jabba the Hutt]] have reached [[WP:FA|featured article]] status! Kudos to the editors who helped obtain these achievements!

WikiProject Star Wars is also on a mission to improve Star Wars articles using the following ideas:

* An out of universe perspective versus an in universe perspective (see [[Wikipedia:Writing about fiction]] and the future ammendments to our [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Star Wars/Manual of style|manual of style]])
* Evolving lists into regular articles
* Moving excess information and specifics to [[Wookieepedia]] (and providing links to Wookieepedia per the "see also" and/or "external links" sections)
* Enhanced communication amongst WikiProject members
* More to come

These should provide the basic steps needed to improve and "encyclopedia-fy" the Star Wars series of articles.

[[Jabba the Hutt]] is a solid character example, and [[Clone Wars (Star Wars)]] is quickly moving toward an out of universe perspective.

|-
|style="color:#000"|
As many of you know, lists of minor Star Wars-related themes are very common on Wikipedia; however, since these may be seen as violations of Wikipedia policy (and having seperate articles would breach ''even more'' policies), the tentative solution is to create general articles on a list's topic (for example, turning List of Star Wars devices into Technology of Star Wars, which allows us to cover everything from hyperspace to comlinks in a general encyclopedic fashion). This can be very tough for some broad topics, so the key is ''organization''. I encourage all editors to list their ideas on the WikiProject talk page. It will be a very difficult &mdash; but tangible &mdash; effort.

For an example, let me point you to the Final Fantasy WikiProject. Some of us over at that WikiProject decided to turn various components of ''Final Fantasy X'', such as [[Pyreflies]], [[Yevon]], and the backstory &mdash; into an article ''describing'' the world of Spira. Location descriptions were given a [[List of locations in Spira]] article, and the details themselves were placed on the [[Spira (Final Fantasy X)]] page. This is a decent template to follow &mdash; however, we will need to place priority on out-of-universe, "real life" topics and perspectives in realtion to the article.

Sounds confusing, eh? It won't, for examples will be popping up left and right in the near future!

Hey, that's exactly what I was pointing out; priority on an "out of universe" perspective with a basic "in universe" description. Actually, the entire reason I started the WikiProject was to ultimately push for this. It can easily be done for technology, creatures, and so on.

==Hungarian Revolution of 1956==
Thank you for reviewing the Hungarian Revolution article - you bring up a very valid point - one we have continuously debated - i.e. how to be accurately descriptive of the public sentiment without being too NPOV.  The crux of the problem is that the event itself is the result of precisely these very strong (and very NPOV) feelings, which are noted repeatedly in the referenced documents (esp. the UN report).  Only this strong emotion could persuade a small country to expel the Soviet occupation - certainly not calculated reason.  We would certainly welcome your constructive comments and will take each one seriously.  (I think you must have caught some of this back-and-forth precisely after posting your first comment).  Consensus on the page, at lest, is that to avoid the emotional language would be to mislead the reader.  If you can suggest a means of reconciling the conflict - i.e. achieving the best of both accuracy and NPOV then we are happy to hear it. [[User:Istvan|Istvan]] 20:49, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for the quick reply.  Ive begun to replace some of the more emotionally charged language as per suggestion.  Most of these are to be found in the summaries at the top.  I hope this is more acceptable now in this form.[[User:Istvan|Istvan]] 21:33, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

Ouch... Disrespectful?  Don't bite!  I'm still kind of new.  After the peer review, those of us interested really started to make some positive changes on the article, removing the quotes and placing the Wikiquote box.  Removing several unnecessary external links.  The problem was that since he is such a popular figure right now, we had so many people coming in adding new useless information and nonsense and vandolism that we had to clean up.  It turned out that there really weren't as many "serious" wikipedians interesting in doing the grunt work on the article.  I understand and completely respect your objections.  I would suggest however that in the future you leave comments to the article themselves, because honestly calling me "disrespectful" I took personally.  I think that I've done a great deal of hard work on wikipedia and this was my first article that I had ever submitted for FA candidacy and I personally thought it met the criteria.  I didn't know any better.  Thank you.--[[User:Twintone|Twintone]] 14:43, 10 October 2006 (UTC)

== Kiero ==

Hey, sorry, I don't know much about Kiero, other than three songs that existed on it (Rise Like The Sun (The Dawn), Ride Like The Sun (The Dusk), and Musical Essence) and the fact it was only available in Toronto for a short while. There's an interview [http://k-os.forumsunlimited.com/index.php?showtopic=7830&pid=13901&st=0&entry13901 here] where K-os expresses interest in re-releasing it, but only after being allowed to tamper with and redo the songs. Other than that, I've only found a few mentions here and there on various websites, but no meaty info. ([[User:Rishi B|Rishi B]] 20:09, 21 October 2006 (UTC))

Hey again, I recently found some more info on k-os... seems in addition to Kiero, he had something called "Take You There"... it was an EP that contained the songs Take You There, and the Rise Like The Sun songs. Just the three tracks. It sometimes pops up on ebay, and according to a [k-os.forumsunlimited.com k-os fansite], it's legit. Apparently, it was distributed by an indie label (Pure) in the states, and is pretty hard to find (duh).([[User:Rishi B|Rishi B]] 10:22, 25 October 2006 (UTC))

== Re: Hey ==

Hi. I find that musicsquare.net is useful for worldwide chart positions (though it only goes back to 2003), and you can find U.S. chart positions at billboard.com. There is also a less well-known chart called the [[ARC Weekly Top 40]], the official website for which is at rockonthenet.com. I should note that some of the information on top40-charts.com is inaccurate. As for choosing which ones to include, I'd recommend against including airplay or download charts because I think a country's main single chart is an adequate indicator of a single's popularity in that country - there's no point including three charts if one conveys essentially the same information. I do think it is good to include any relevant genre-specific charts; for example, in the U.S. you have the [[Pop 100]], [[Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs]] and so on. Hope that helps.

== Settlers II Gameplay ==

Hey I heard you were working on [[Settlers II]]. I looked over the gameplay section, and it looks pretty good. I wouldn't call it cheesy; it's written from an out of world perspective, and I think it covers all aspects (probably the two biggest problems of gameplay sections). I've never played the game, but are their different sides you can be (I.E. axis and allies in WWII games)?  That's really all I saw missing from the gameplay section (it's kinda hard to know what's missing if you haven't played the game, and it'd be pretty dumb for me to pull that "broad in coverage" junk.). Another thing that might be the reason that you called it cheesy was because most of the paragrapghs subjects were "the player." For example "During the beginning of the game, the main warehouse is the only building that has a radius granting the player territory. The player can expand his territory by building any of the three possible military complex's near the border of his current territory and sending atleast 1 soldier to operate the complex. A serf can become a soldier once a sword and a shield are constructed." could be "During the beginning of the game, only the main warhouse has the ability to grant territory for further growth. Territory can be expanded by creating one of three military complexs near territory borders. Each complex must have at least one soilder to continually operate the complex. Soilders can be created by constructing a sword and shield, and using them to upgrade a serf." I'm not great with prose or spelling, but the idea I was trying to convey was that the subject changes as the paragrapgh moves on. If you are talking about soilders and how cool they are and you want to move on to serfs, try to connect them. I know you've probably dealt with prose a thousand times, but I'm just trying to get across that prose is still there in [[real-time strategy|RTS]] games. If you need more help with structuring video game sections, [[User:JimmyBlackwing|JimmyBlackwing]] helped me out a lot. You're doing a great job though. Keep up the good work. --[[User:Clyde Miller|Clyde Miller]] 22:29, 28 October 2006 (UTC)

:Well look at the [[Wikipedia:No original research|orginal research]] stuff if you haven't already (good stuff there), but usually people are more leanent with what needs to be citied regarding video games. It goes case by case usually, but stats and actual ideas are usually citied. I think I may have citied some uneeded things in Empires, but I think it is usually better to cite more than less. <ref> me (stupid joke) </ref> If you say that soilders fight, don't cite it, but if you say that soilders can kill serfs better than other serfs, you might want to cite that. I dunno, it's kinda hard to define.--[[User:Clyde Miller|Clyde Miller]] 22:44, 28 October 2006 (UTC)

Even I had a thought of changing the colour to white but did not do it. I think the Motto looks somewhat smaller and the text to the links need to be in bold so that it looks attractive. I will do that.Thanking you.

The bold size did not work nicely. It looks very odd. So not making changes there.

== fair use ==

A couple of points.   Firstly, the issue of whether a free image can be created is a lot trickier than you seem to think.  Is it really possible to create a free picture of [[J. D. Salinger]] (note that someone has challenged the fair use rationale of the current image, from a book cover by his daughter, and, so it'll probably get deleted soon enough)?  In general, how easy is it to get a free picture of famous people?  I think that the idea that the possibility of getting some famous person to release a photo on the GNU license (through wikipedia's "clout") should be totally off the table in terms of fair use criteria.  If someone can get the person to do that, wonderful.  But the possibility of this (vaguely present with every living person, and even with dead people, presumably) shouldn't actually cause us to delete existing images.  The possibility of ''taking'' a picture of a famous person seems ''a priori'' similarly dubious - obviously there are exceptions, and there will be famous people it will be possible to get pictures of, but this is not easily possible to members of the general public in the way that, say, getting a picture of the Arc de Triomphe would be.  Anyone in Paris can take a picture of the Arc de Triomphe and release it to wikipedia.  To get a free picture of Tom Cruise is a lot tricker, and the conditions in which such a picture would be likely to be taken makes all the more likely that the picture will be awkward and poor and unprofessional compared to a promotional photo, which it would be perfectly legal for wikipedia to use.

[[Image:Concordiabig.svg|300px]] <big>'''NEWSLETTER'''</big>

Concordia is currently trying to relaunch. I, and all the members of the ex-council, wish to welcome new members to the group. We are a group who aim to promote remaining civil, in an environment where messages can easily be interpretated wrongly.

====''Help out now!''====
*Try and help people remain civil! Talk to them, and help them in any way possible. Do not be afraid to use the [[WT:CCD|talk page]].
*Give people the [[:Image:Civility_barnstar.png|Civility Barnstar]].
*Make and spread some Wikitokens so people know there are people to help if they want assistance.
*Add banners or logos to your userpage to show your support.
*'''Suggest some ideas!''' Add 'em to the [[WT:CCD|talk page]].
We are a community, so can only work though community contributions and support. It's the helping that counts.

====''Decision Making''====
The council expired one month ago, but due to the current position of the group the current council will remain until the position of the group can be assessed, and whether it would be sensible to keep Concordia going. For most decisions, however, it will be decided by all who choose to partake in discussions. I am trying to relaunch because of the vast amounts of new members we have received, demonstrating that the aims are supported.

If you wish to opt of of further talk-page communications, just let us know [[Wikipedia:Concordia/Do Not Spam|here]].

== 36 Chambers ==

I'm wondering about your decision to switch the word "earliest" to "first" in the sentence about the "Protect Ya Neck"/"After Laughter Comes Tears" single. Obviously, these tracks were recorded EARLIER any other tracks on the album (making them the '''earliest tracks to make the album''') but do we have any evidence that they were the FIRST to be selected for the album ('''the first tracks to make the album''', as the current version states)? 

Obviously, 36 Chambers ''probably'' contains just about everything Wu-Tang had recorded at that point, and it's ''likely'' that they picked these songs for the album because they were picking everything. However, I don't think we can simply assume that when RZA was assembling the tracks for the album he said "First off, I choose 'Protect Ya Neck' and 'Tearz'."

Maybe there's a better (less awkward) way to say "earliest to make the album", but I think "first to make the album" makes a potentially false assumption. Hope that makes sense. Hit me back. [[User:Venicemenace|Venicemenace]] 20:35, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

::I agree that it's awkward - that's why I didn't change it back - and I don't KNOW that it's false, but I also don't know that it's true. I'll try to think of another way to put it, and in the meantime leave your version up since it isn't a major issue at all. Thanks for your reply.

::Tutmosis, thank you again. It is great to see an unbiased opinion and help with this situation. About the archived material, that was done before I came onboard with Wikipedia and reading it is what intrigued me. On communication with these editors, I honestly have tried viamently to discuss and reason with them. Again, when I even such as suggest that there is ambiguous material in thier inclusions, they take a totalitarian stance and state thier way is "Right" and whatever I change, they will change it thier way. This raises many questions. If there are conflicting items that cannot be completely verified and conflicting references, then ambiguity must be stated. What thier objective is it seems is that any other information other than thiers that is conflicting, is wrong, period. Any kind of discussion with them ends up this way. Also, if you research the "Talk" page, editor in reference to including the "Moon" film subject, "DPSmith" objective is to quote "...<i>I've left it in myself because I think it's so silly that it undercuts any suggestion that the new Biograph is to be taken seriously</i>". This to me sounds like thier is a personal attack and bias here. I could honestly care less who is arguing with whom. All I care about is that a verifiable and clean article is included in Wikipedia, and it is not used as a personal forum. There are also other notes from these editors that suggest the same thing. This is also why I have posted the notices to obtain assistance from other unbiased editors to improve this article. Again, thank you and any thoughts, suggestions, etc. are greatly appreciated. --[[User:Roger the red|Roger the red]] 00:15, 4 January 2007 (UTC)

Well, first of all I am not an administrator so I can not block anyone if that what you ment. Even if I was and this applies to the current administrators blocking powers are used only on very specific cases such as WP:3RR or WP:VANDAL or WP:AGF. Action to be taken in disagreements over content require various quite long steps outlined in Wikipedia:Resolving disputes. Therefore, looking again at that last page the best thing to do at the moment is for all parties to stop reverting each other and enter discussion. Since you requested an advocate [me :)] I am welcome to represent you in any discussion. If all forms of discussion fail, you (and if you wish me) can move on to various other dispute procedures like WP:3, WP:RFM and WP:RFC. I hope this answers any questions/thoughts you had. —Tutmosis 21:11, 5 January 2007 (UTC)

Users will often be in conflict "unofficially". There needs to be no formal end to a conflict, no deals need to be made or anything. If the conflict has ended, then it is done, officially or not. Your handling of the case looks to be ok. There is no one right way to handle a case. Although there was one thing I did see on [[Talk:American Mutoscope and Biograph Company]] that looked a little odd, under the section [[Talk:American Mutoscope and Biograph Company#Notice to Editors|Notice to Editors]]. There is no Wikipedia protocal that says that changes ''need'' to be discussed first. The only reason that ever happens is when a page is fully protected from editing due to edit wars. Also, there is no reason to add tags to an article for the heck of adding tags. There needs to be a specific reason to add a tag, and that reason should be expressed on the talk page. There are much better ways to get the attention of editors. And new users are not always drawn in just by a tag. Basically, there needs to be a reason for, and because it's happened before and preemptive aren't very good reasons. -[[User:Royalguard11|Royalguard11]]<small>([[User talk:Royalguard11|Talk]]·[[User talk:Royalguard11/Desk|Desk]]·[[User:Royalguard11/ER|Review Me!]])</small> 23:07, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

::Thank you -[[User:Royalguard11|Royalguard11]] very much for your input. First, when I mentioned "Protocol" it was intended as etiquette, not "Policy". Also, if you notice in the "Talk" and "Archives", this article is far from looking decent, and there are many conflicting "Sources", hence the reason for "Tags". If these "Tags" can help, then they need to be there. As you started earlier, it is not "Protocol" to discuss everything on the "Talk" page first, which I agree, this includes tag additions. I am also in contact with our advocate and when enough verifiable information is gathered, the article will be re-edited and changed to a verifiable and proper form. Until these conflicting sources in the article are remedied, then this article will be of a questionable nature and its contents ambiguous at best. On the issue with the "discuss changes" part, that will come after consulting our advocate.

Tutmosis, I am posting for your review the most recent demand from [[User:Will Beback|Will Beback]] to tell "Him" hat the disputes are, or he will remove all the tags. Only one tag has to do with disputes. Please read the following [[Talk:American Mutoscope and Biograph Company]] and [[User talk:Roger the red]]. I would like to thank you for your impartiality and your assistance. Reading the "Talk" page postings from both links, there are [[WP:ATTACK|personal accusation]]s by this editor, which is truly reaching for straws and is not relevant to the improvement of "Content" for the mentioned article. First, I am not a part of an old company, or new company in this article, obviously. I have a couple of friends (Collegues) that are film historians helping me with certain research items on all articles, hence the word "Our" advocate, "Advocate" refering to you. I enjoy editing on Wikipedia without personal accusations and, I feel, harrassment in which I believe this is. It has happened time and again, and I post this [[User talk:Roger the red]] as just another example. Thank you.

Tutmosis, the postings on your "Talk" page have been removed with only links now. I only have a few minutes of time so this will be a disjointed reply to what is going on, but it will be as detailed as possible. I quickly reviewed your request and I will reverse the postings on the "Talk" page, however I will include a small link which the reader/editor can go to if they wish. On the other subject of tags, I insist they stay up. I will be happy to point out a "Case" on my return, but feel there is prejudicial circumstanes that have not been addressed. Since you are my "Advocate", you need to please review the postings of [[User:Will Beback|Will Beback]] and question him as well on the intentions of his accusations towards me and his insistance on removing ALL tags. I can somewhat understand to a point the "Factual" dispute tag with a "Case" in which I will compile, but the others "Neutrality", "Verifiablity", and especially "Confusing" (Articles like [[Mary Pickford]] and others like it are not confusing and understandable to the reader, this article is not) are valid and to stay. I also understand that all editors are to be treated equally, unless one is an actual Wikipedia "Administrator". I also question why it is such a major point to [[User:Will Beback|Will Beback]] to remove these tags. I respectfully request to you that my inclusions be treated equal as such. I refuse to make Wikipedia a "Battleground" and if this continues I will take this to arbitration and take further action through the proper Wikipedia channels, which I do not wish to do, or to further escalate this situation over "Tags".

Capsulated, the tags are there to notify any contributing editors of the articles problems, and for them to further edit this article. I shall be returning soon in which I will have a simplictic case ready.

==Urgent appeal==

I needed your assistance in a very serious problem and appeal to you as my advocate. There is an attempt to block me as a user on Wikipedia by [[User:Will Beback|Will Beback]] who is also an administrator. You can see the accusations on the talk pages. One of the main accusations is that I am somehow connected with the [[American Mutoscope and Biograph Company]] which I am not. Of course this will not give me even a chance to be able to write a rebuttal and explanation of the tags I have placed on the article. Unfortunately I am newer to Wikipedia and do not have members here in my defense. I can encourage friends and colleagues of mine who are involved with film history to join Wikipedia, but most likely they will be blocked as well. Whatever assistance you can be please let me know. I will be contacting Wikipedia administration to see what can be done. I do have my case mostly written in defense of my tag postings, but that may never happen because of this possible block. I have made my utmost attempt to follow Wikipedian policies and tried to provide fair editing and editing. But there is a coalition that does not wish to have outside contributions that negate their information. I am very busy and if this matter can be settled that would be nice, but I do have a life and need to focus on that, and on that note I will be absent for awhile longer though will try to log in periodically. If I am blocked, then it will be just an experience and that Wikipedia is something for anyone to truly avoid and definitely not support with contributions of information, membership or financially. This is not a threat by any means, for it is very sad at best. Please let me know as my AMA and thank you.

Hi Tutmosis, could I ask you to have a quick look at [[Talk:Pottery#Call_for_opinions]]? I really think that mediation has broken down and that we are back to square one again, again. Regards, Nick. [[User:N.Hopton|Nick]] 17:58, 25 January 2007 (UTC)

Hello Tutmosis. Will you be closing out [[Wikipedia:Mediation Cabal/Cases/2007-01-16 Difference of opinion about pottery.]]? It appears that Nick has deleted the introductory section that I thought we all agreed upon. --[[User:Brunnock|Sean Brunnock]] 17:22, 3 February 2007 (UTC)

==Helping out with the Unassessed Wikipedia Biographies==

Seeing that you are an active member of the [[Wikipedia:WikiProject_Biography | WikiBiography Project]], I was wondering if you would help lend a hand in helping us clear out the amount of [[http://en.wikipedia.com/wiki/Category:Unassessed_biography_articles unassessed articles]] tagged with <nowiki>{{WPBiography}}</nowiki>. Many of them are of stub and start class, but a few are of B or A caliber. Getting a simple assessment rating can help us start moving many of these biographies to a higher quality article. Thank you! --[[User:Ozgod|Ozgod]] 22:57, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

== Availability to help in a dispute? ==

Tutmosis, I'm trying to help improve the quality of the facts in a series of pages that involve the history of the Jewish Chasidic movement. I'm not a chasid, just a very knowledgeable historian who has a large number of quality resources and references available to add. However, I'm getting hammered by some fanatical chasids who don't want to listen to facts or reason. They think they own all the facts. Nor are they recognizing the references and facts I'm presenting in what I believe to be a neutral manner. These folks keep undoing my work and basically ganging up on me and my contributions. I'm not saying that I'm always right. But I don't have a particular agenda other than getting the best information into Wiki as possible.

Can you please help me? I'm not asking you to agree with my point of view, but can you please keep an eye on this dispute and maybe help tone these fanatics down? I'm relatively new to Wiki contributions (a lurker for about a year) and would appreciate all the advice you are willing to give.

For a starting point, take a look at [[Talk:List_of_Hasidic_dynasties|this page]]. This same dispute affects something like 5 or 6 pages of similar material.

Thanks in advance for you kind assistance! --[[User:Klezmer|Klezmer]] 05:38, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

The problem isn't Hasidic fanatics -- the problem is Klezmer who ignores any facts or published works that he doesn't agree with or which don't support his agenda, and won't compromise, so he arbitrarily just keep deleting/reverting and wants the articles to reflect just his own opinion/views despite the comments and input of others who are more knowledgeable than he is about the facts. --[[User:ChosidFrumBirth|ChosidFrumBirth]] 21:36, 7 March 2007 (UTC)

Hey, [[User:Tutmosis|Tutmosis]]. The old discussion about [[Tupac Shakur|'Pac]]'s birthname is back! I've filed an [[WP:RFC|request for comment]] hoping to clear this up. The RFC can be found under "Tupac Shakur" on [[WP:RFC/ARTIC|this list]], and the actual discussion can be found on [[Talk:Tupac Shakur#RfC]], in case you wish to participate. -[[User:My/sig|<span style="color:black;">Mysekurity</span>]] 06:15, 14 March 2007 (UTC)

== Done. ==

Wow. Finding references for the Shadow Cabinet was ''difficult''. Of course, cos it's all assumed to be common knowledge there's hardly anything I could use. I'm still working on that final Lib Dem cabinet claim, which was also not mentioned anywhere. Grr. Anyway. Hope you're well. [[User:Dev920|Dev920]] (Have a nice day!) 01:30, 22 March 2007 (UTC)

==Re: Barnstar==
Thank you for noticing, I really appreciate it. After seeing the horrid quality that this article was earlier this year (like [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=50_Cent&oldid=104543020 this version] for example), I couldn't help but do something about it. So thanks heaps for the barnstar, I think this is the third one I've got for this article :) [[User:Spellcast|Spellcast]] 17:31, 29 July 2007 (UTC)

==Orphaned non-free image (Image:Gang related (film).jpg)==
[[Image:Nuvola apps important blue.svg|25px]] Thanks for uploading '''[[:Image:Gang related (film).jpg]]'''. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a [[WP:FU|claim of fair use]]. However, the image is currently [[Wikipedia:Orphan|orphaned]], meaning that it is 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. [[WP:BOLD|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 [[Wikipedia:Non-free content#Policy|our policy for non-free media]]).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "[[Special:Contributions/{{PAGENAME}}|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.

In addition to the [[Wikipedia:Image copyright tags/Fair use|boilerplate fair use template]], you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found  [[WP:FURG|here]].

Please go to [[:Image:Shut_em_down_(album).jpg|the image description page]] and edit it to include a [[Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline |fair use rationale]]. Using one of the templates at [[Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline]] is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template.  Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
