[edit] Hiro's occupation

Hi. I reverted your contribution to the article on Hiro. According to Hiro's blog, sponsored by NBC, he works in sales. I don't know any official source that says he's a programmer (heroeswiki is NOT a credible source, I'm afraid). Primogen 00:56, 26 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] No Personal Attacks

[edit] Theory

I didn't say you added that hypothesis. An edit summary/comment is not necessarily directed at the last person to have made an edit. It is, instead, more likely to have been directed at the person who made the edit that is being referred to in the comment, as in this case. Sorry if there was a misunderstanding there.

[edit] Nice job

Just wanted to say nice job on the Larry Fleinhardt article. Also wanted to say that you might want to consider registering. Yonatanh 22:10, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Spider-Man 2

If you've seen other film articles with plot sections just as long, then they need the {{plot}} tag as well. Wikipedia is not a substitute for watching the film. Please see FA-class film articles to get an idea of the appropriate length of Plot sections. —Erik (talk • contrib • review) - 20:51, 17 February 2007 (UTC)

Please stop readding the information that was removed from the plot. It's clear you are trying to readd the exact info, just in short quick edits. They were removed for reasons. Wiki is not a substitute for watching a movie, and verbose text, extraneous details, or original research should not be in a plot, or any other part of an encyclopedic article.  BIGNOLE   (Question?)  (What I do)  22:21, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
Being "vilified" by Jonah is nothing new, and thus it's extraneous. He's been "vilified" since Jonah first laid eyes on Spider-Man. Secondly, his loss of powers is already noted, and saying it is because of "psychological burnout" is considered original research, because they do not say that in the film; secondly it's just verbose wording as just saying "he lost his powers" suits just fine.  BIGNOLE   (Question?)  (What I do)  22:25, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
I added a bit about his powers shorting out at the bank robbery, so as to not imply that it was some freak thing that occurred after the engagement. Trying to explain why it occurred, when it wasn't explained (just alluded to, which you can't say in an encyclopedia without reliable sources) is Original research.  BIGNOLE   (Question?)  (What I do)  22:29, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Charlie Eppes

Using TWELVE fair-use images/screenshots in a single short article is not even CLOSE to compliance with fair-use policy -- or aesthetics, for that matter. I'm removing them. --Calton | Talk 22:22, 13 June 2007 (UTC)

Altough we dissagree on the use of fair use image I must say you are doing a great job with the Numb3rs articles. Rettetast 10:52, 17 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Physics Theory

Hi, 68. I've taken out the bit you added to the Theory and Experiment part of Physics because I think that, while your point is interesting, it's a little too much detail for that part of the article. I just wanted to let you know my reasoning since I think we may have cut and re-added it before. If you still think it's important that those sentences are in there, maybe we could discuss it at Talk:Physics in order to reach some kind of compromise. Thanks, Gnixon 07:46, 22 July 2007 (UTC).

I appreciate the good work you're doing on Physics, but could we please dialogue a little about some of these things so we don't end up edit warring? Gnixon 20:17, 22 July 2007 (UTC)

Please keep in mind the recommendations at WP:SUMMARY and limit subsections to 3 or 4 paragraphs. The quantum section is already too long and will need to be cut back a bit; the same is probably true of the astrophysics section. It's good, though, that you've added lots of info, because it's easier to edit things back than it is to write new stuff. Gnixon 22:18, 22 July 2007 (UTC)

Further to Gnixon's comments, you've made a large number of edits to Physics without explaining any of them. Many are perfectly fine, but some are quite unnecessary, or at least appear to be (repeated mentions of chaos for instance). It's really not difficult to add an edit summary to one's edits, and adding one makes it less likely than one's edits will be mistaken for misbehaviour or POV-pushing.

[edit] Please use edit summaries

Hi there. When editing an article on Wikipedia there is a small field labeled "Edit summary" under the main edit-box. It looks like this:
Edit summary text box

The text written here will appear on the Recent changes page, in the page revision history, on the diff page, and in the watchlists of users who are watching that article. See m:Help:Edit summary for full information on this feature.

Filling in the edit summary field greatly helps your fellow contributors in understanding what you changed, so please always fill in the edit summary field. If you are adding a section, please do not just keep the previous section's header in the Edit summary field - please fill in your new section's name instead. Thank you.
