Major characters in the works of Tanith Lee

Welcome to Wikipedia! We welcome your help to create new content, but your recent additions (such as Major characters in the works of Tanith Lee) are considered nonsense. Please refrain from creating nonsense articles. If you want to test things out, edit the sandbox instead.

[edit] List of The Claidi Journals characters

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of List of The Claidi Journals characters, and it appears to be very similar to another wikipedia page: The Claidi Journals. It is possible that you have accidentally duplicated contents, or made an error while creating the page— you might want to look at the pages and see if that is the case.

This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page. CorenSearchBot (talk) 19:28, 9 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] AfD nomination of Art Blastside

I have nominated Art Blastside, an article you created, for deletion. I do not feel that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Art Blastside. Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time. Master of Puppets Call me MoP!☺ 21:27, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

Hello again! I just thought I'd suggest something; if the Art Blastside article is deleted, please feel free to include pertinent information in the main article, as long as it follows guidelines. Cheers, Master of Puppets Call me MoP!☺ 00:29, 16 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] January 2008

Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but your recent edit removed content from Amelia Peabody's Egypt. When removing text, please specify a reason in the edit summary and discuss edits that are likely to be controversial on the article's talk page. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the text has been restored, as you can see from the page history. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia, and if you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you.

[edit] Stub sorting

Hi, I've noticed that you've created a number of stubs recently, and tagged them with the uncategorised {{stub}} tag. It would be very helpful if, where possible, you could use a specific stub tag, such as {{sf-novel-stub}} or {{fantasy-novel-stub}} - a full list can be found here. Also, please note that articles that do not provide at least a claim of notability are more likely to be deleted. Thanks, Jeodesic (talk) 22:28, 8 January 2008 (UTC)


[edit] Boy Princess

A tag has been placed on Boy Princess, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. If you plan to expand the article, you can request that administrators wait a while for you to add contextual material. To do this, affix the template {{hangon}} to the article and state your intention on the article's talk page. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this.

[edit] En-mass tagging *****-ai as a minor theme

Excuse me, but what exactly do you think you're doing, tagging a few dozen anime/manga series at the same time with these categories? Granted I have only read perhaps 1/5 of the series, but the vast majority of them do not fit at all. Please provide evidence, or undo the taggings. Zyrxil (talk) 23:39, 13 January 2008 (UTC)

The series that were tagged in this category were previously listed on the page "Shonen ai". Many people have expressed upset at losing the links. I was putting the links in the category of "Shonen ai as a minor theme" because that's how they were previously listed at that page. TigressofIndia (talk) 01:12, 14 January 2008 (UTC)
That's great from a functional point of view, but again I have to point out that the vast majority of the series tagged absolutely do not have Shounen/Shoujo Ai as a minor theme. I'm not familiar with the discussion regarding the Shonen Ai article, but there needs to be a criteria for tagging, more selective than the series simply having main characters that are the same gender.

[edit] AfD nomination of Art Blastside‎

An editor has nominated Art Blastside‎, an article on which you have worked or that you created, for deletion. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also "What Wikipedia is not").

Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Art Blastside‎ and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).

You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 14:14, 14 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Drinking Sapphire Wine

Another editor has added the "{{prod}}" template to the article Drinking Sapphire Wine, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but the editor doesn't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and has explained why in the article (see also Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not and Wikipedia:Notability). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia or discuss the relevant issues at its talk page. If you remove the {{prod}} template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

[edit] Ashley Davies

Hello, TigressofIndia. The reason that I changed Ashley's sexual orientation listing on the List of LGBT characters in film, radio, and TV fiction from bisexual to lesbian-identified (twice now) is explained in the edit history of that article, as well as showcased by simply looking at Ashley's article, which I recently fixed up. On her talk page, after I fixed up that article, I also explained more about categorizing her sexuality.

If you still feel that we shouldn't list her as lesbian-identified on the list mentioned above, then what do you suggest, besides listing her as bisexual? I really don't feel that she should be listed as bisexual, at least not until we see her really fall in love with or sexually attracted to a guy that is not in direct response to her romantic feelings for Spencer Carlin. Even then, I'm not sure we should classify her as such, since she identifies more so as a lesbian...but rejects labels at the same time. On the above mentioned list...we could list her as "Gay, possible bisexual", like what is done in concerns to Ennis Del Mar and Jack Twist. I'll probably tweak some more with how to list her there, since some people may want to list her as a lesbian...while others may want to list her as bisexual. Flyer22 (talk) 04:50, 15 February 2008 (UTC)

For now...I'll list her as "Lesbian, possible bisexual" on that list. Or maybe "Lesbian-identified, possible bisexual" would be better for her. That seems a better fit. Flyer22 (talk) 05:03, 15 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] List of LGBT characters in modern written fiction

Hi TigressofIndia, thanks for your recent edits to List of LGBT characters in modern written fiction. The way you referenced your additions didn't work, so I fixed them. Wikipedia:Citing sources is a page I've found helpful in the past. I also reverted 2 of your edits, the characters of Amber and Tony, since the link you provided didn't mention Amber, and it mentioned Tony but didn't say that he was gay. I've had a quick look for a better reference but couldn't find one. If you find one, feel free to add them back. All the best, --BelovedFreak 14:43, 16 February 2008 (UTC)
