Accidental revert on Prison Break image

I'm not having my night, I accidently reverted to some older version of the Behind The Walls screencapture (which you added). I instantly reverted it back, I'm really sorry Ladida. I noticed from your user page that you're part of the Counter-Vandalism Unit, so you'll probably have tons of experience of cleaning up after people. Could you please do the same for stupid old me? I'm going to stay away from Wikipedia for a while... again I'm sorry —Preceding unsigned comment added by Brucevdk (talk • contribs) 22:02, 20 May 2006

Fall/Autumn

Hi, just to clear my edit up. I meant that it was not a WWW view because autmn/fall happen at different times throughout the year - not because "fall" is an American term - I'm not opposed to the term "fall" - just that it happens at different times in different places. Your doing a great job at the PB page, though I have not been editing there as much as I used to, as Iam avoiding season one spoilers, so I'll be editing it again in a couple of weeks. Cheers.

Image Tagging

Image:Dominic Purcell.jpg

Warning sign
This media may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:Dominic Purcell.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then there needs to be an argument why we have the right to use the media on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then it needs to be specified where it was found, i.e., in most cases link to the website where it was taken from, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag then one should be added. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media qualifies as fair use, consider reading fair use, and then use a tag such as {{Non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other media, consider checking that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, 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 unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Arniep 17:27, 11 May 2006 (UTC)

Image:Swcallies.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Swcallies.jpg. The image has been identified as not specifying the source and creator of the image, which is required by Wikipedia's policy on images. If you don't indicate the source and creator of the image on the image's description page, it may be deleted some time in the next seven days. If you have uploaded other images, please verify that you have provided source information for them as well.

Image:Casey stratton.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Casey stratton.jpg. Wikipedia gets hundreds of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 04:04, 27 May 2006 (UTC)

Regarding the Prison Break page

Could you give me one good reason why you deleted Mike Jones? Here are two reasons why I put him back.

  1. He appeared in more than one episode.
  2. He is notable off screen.

Therefore, he IS a notable guest star. M. Burmy

you're clearly not a prison break fan.

  • As you said it yourself, your site is a forum site and is often deemed inappropriate for Wikipedia articles. However, upon revising the rules stated in Wikipedia:External_links#Occasionally_acceptable_links, I will leave your link as it is. Other fansites have been removed from the page prior to this. Moreover, the external links section is NOT for you to advertise your site. -- Ladida 10:18, 22 June 2006 (UTC)

  • The wiki site is technically not a fansite or a forum; unlike yours. That is the reason I have not removed it. However, I am not sure about it. Furthermore, will you please spamming wikipedia? People edit wikipedia articles to improve the quality of the articles, NOT because they want to advertise their site. -- Ladida 07:24, 30 June 2006 (UTC)

Numb3rs

(Re: your message on my talk page.) No worries about removing my modifications to the DVD section of the Numb3rs page - you've done a much better job on the DVD table at List of NUMB3RS episodes. However, would it not be better to merge the content currently on 'List of NUMB3RS episodes' with the 'Episodes and DVD releases' section of NUMB3RS? As in, replace that section with the table on the list page, and make the list page into a redirect to the main page. There doesn't seem to be enough content to justify having two pages. Mike Peel 14:19, 1 July 2006 (UTC)

I would agree with the split if there was more content. I only tend to justify seperate pages when there is currently too much content for just one page, or they cover seperate topics, though, and I don't think either applies here. I'm also unsure that the season summaries can grow much longer than they already are - the episodes don't tie themselves together well enough to form storylines, which tend to make up most of a normal season summary. I'll post a question about this on the NUMB3RS talk page so that more people can give their opinion on this. I'm OK with leaving the pages as they are for a couple of days, though. Mike Peel 14:33, 1 July 2006 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Numb3rs Insignia.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Numb3rs Insignia.jpg. The image description page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles 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 fair use images lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Prison Break characters

Why did u delete those Prison Break characters?—Preceding unsigned comment added by DanDud88 (talk • contribs) 14:08, 27 July 2006

Hi, DanDud88. My reason for the removal of those characters' descriptions can be found in Talk:List_of_Prison_Break_characters#Excessive_minor_characters. Although your contribution to the page is appreciated, the list of characters pages are to provide information on the significant characters of the TV show. There is no need to add minor characters that have a tiny role on the show. This is to avoid an exhaustive and excessive list. Regards, Ladida 10:11, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

Re: Beijing Film Academy

Hi, I got your comment on Beijing Film Academy. I checked all the names for you. They are all correct, except for the one that is linked to http://www.bfa.edu.cn/faculty/filmlogy/index.htm. I read some of the content, and I believe the department is about film theory rather than performing arts. For example, they have a course in film critique and another one in film analysis. After all, there is already a performance institute, so I doubt they would have two deparments/schools for performing. Lulu288 18:30, 11 August 2006 (UTC)

Template: Prison Break episode

Hi, how come you created a prison break template? ifbx:episode suficed. What i've done is redirected to ifbx:television episode and added annother opt. tag to tv ep so as black BGs work correctly. Matthew Fenton (Talk | Contribs) 21:03, 11 August 2006 (UTC)

PS: If you created prison break template, background colouring was already in infobox tv episode. Matthew Fenton (Talk | Contribs) 21:08, 11 August 2006 (UTC)

Okay, I see where your coming from and while i would possibly like a template for each show it just shouldnt be done if we can condense them into one template, personally my self i prefer the episode chro. next to each other and not on seperate lines as it doesnt look chuncky then and "blends" well. PS: There may be someway i could "switch" chronologys, ie have two versions. It could be done using advanced template markup.. If you are interested i'll see what i can do today about setting it up, anyway sorry if i annoyed you at changing something you created, I know my self it can be a bother but the best thing we can do is standardise one template. Matthew Fenton (Talk | Contribs) 07:57, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

Prison Break episode summary edit removal

Hi' I humbly ask you the reason why you deleted the edit on the last episode of prison break season 1. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Demorphica (talk • contribs) 22:34, 26 August 2006

Replied on Demorphica's talk page.
With all due respect... Tell me Ladida, if a person in south-east Asia needs to know the detailed episode summary of a TV show which does not air in their country, how do they go about it?
There is a real need of a resource to be available for this. As to your words on the summary needing to be on the main page, the summary present there is a very brief Season summary, and not an episode summary, which is nowhere near detailed enough.
If for example I am needed to submit a report on American TV shows, and i need to expound upon the differences in plot 'dynamics' between American shows as opposed to those airing in my country, I believe there should be a resource available. In my opinion, the well-formatted episode list tables are the best place for this.
After all, i believe the essence of any encyclopedia is verbosity. That is why we say it is 'encyclopedic'. The articles avilable are not available on a need-to-know basis, but rather, a want-to-know basis. And that i believe is a step towards freedom of availability of information, which in turn is a step towards the actual assimilation of information.
Do reply and tell me where I am wrong, if I am. Demorphica 00:58, 29 August 2006 (UTC)
Hey, Demorphica. I think you misunderstood my meaning of "main article". I meant the main article of the individual episode, as in the page that you will be directed to if you click on the episode title. Of course you are welcome to expand on those summaries. I am sorry if I confused you. The reason you shouldn't really add any more onto those short summaries in the List of Prison Break episodes page is because there is very limited room and it should only provide a quick summary of each episode. Good examples of these "List of TV episodes" pages are given in the Wikipedia:WikiProject List of Television Episodes page. Regards, Ladida 07:23, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

Prison Break Spoilers

Hi Ladida

I noticed that you edit the Prison Break episodes very frequently and thoroughly. So I figured I would ask you your opinion on spoiler tags in the episode summaries. I have edited a main template to create a prison break spoiler tag, which provides a link to the List of Prison Break episodes page.

However there seems to be some contention over the use of spoiler tags. Although I have already implemented them throughout the Prison Break pages, if spoiler warnings are a problem let me know. Personally I feel it is obvious that a spoiler is coming but that others might be caught out. GenestealerUK 12:19, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

Hi! Generally spoiler tags should be present at the top of all the television episodes articles, which is basically all articles which contain a plot summary. I remember putting those tags in all the season 1 episodes' articles after the US season 1 finale, if they weren't already there. I haven't noticed if the second season's episodes' articles were tagged or not, since I personally don't care about spoilers. You're right, all those articles should be spoiler tagged. I was just wondering, why didn't you use {{spoiler}} instead of creating a new one, not that I have anything against it but I was just curious. :) -- Ladida 12:42, 7 September 2006 (UTC)
I'm guessing someone removed the spoiler tags then. I previewed several including the main one, however they either didn't link at all to the List of Episodes or didn't link correctly. This is because the headers on that page aren't simply "Season 1" but have a date following them. Therefore the automated links didn't work, so I had to create a template that linked directly to the page regardless of which Season the episode is.GenestealerUK 12:50, 7 September 2006 (UTC)
I see. Good work! -- Ladida 12:56, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

Hey there, well i do think it would be a good idea to go the Lost way on the matter of characters, it would probably also be neater and more informative. On the second matter i'd happily help you improve the article . thanks/Fenton, Matthew Lexic Dark 52278 Alpha 771 09:23, 14 September 2006 (UTC)
