[edit] Ellen

Why do you keep removing information about other broadcasts from The Ellen DeGeneres Show? The way I have pared it down, I don't see how it correlates to what rule you are quoting. I see that the international broadcast tables have been removed from every show, though. Your argument doesn;t hold about how the article should be about the "show" not its airings because this shows its internatioal popularity. bmitchelf•T•F 03:08, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

Seconded for The Class and 30 Rock. The WP:DIRECTORY page says that you can't use schedules, even if series premiere dates and channels are listed, I do not see how this is a schedule. If the scheduled time are removed, I do not see this breaking any policies. Jamie jca 20:19, 29 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Giuliani

I reverted your edit on Rudy Giuliani because the information contained has many links to sourced information. As a practical matter, Giuliani has taken different positions on the issues at different times. It would not be right to say his position on an issue is X at time A while ignoring a different stance he took at time B. Jmegill 21:59, 4 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Admin?

Would you like to have a few more buttons on your toolbar? I'd be happy to nominate you. Tim Vickers 02:37, 7 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Your GA nomination of Ron Paul presidential campaign, 2008

The article Ron Paul presidential campaign, 2008 you nominated as a good article has failed , see Talk:Ron Paul presidential campaign, 2008 for reasons why the nomination failed. If or when these points have been taken care of, you may apply for a new nomination of said article. If you oppose this decision, you may ask for a reassessment.

[edit] LOTD proposal

You either voted on the original list of the day proposal or the revised version. A more modest experimental proposal is now at issue at WP:LOTDP. Feel free to voice your opinion.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/tcfkaWCDbwincowtchatlotpsoplrttaDCLaM) 17:30, 7 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Featured List of the Day Experiment

There have been a series of proposals to initiate a Featured List of the Day on the main page. Numerous proposals have been put forth. After the third one failed, I audited all WP:FL's in order to begin an experiment in my own user space that will hopefully get it going. Today, it commences at WP:LOTD. Afterwards I created my experimental page, a new proposal was set forth to do a featured list that is strikingly similar to my own which is to do a user page experimental featured list, but no format has been confirmed and mechanism set in place. I continue to be willing to do the experiment myself and with this posting it commences. Please submit any list that you would like to have considered for list of the day in the month of January 2008 by the end of this month to WP:LOTD and its subpages. You may submit multiple lists for consideration.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/WP:LOTD) 15:50, 17 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Re your good article nomination of Dismissal of U.S. attorneys controversy

Here are the potential problems with a good article nomination of Dismissal of U.S. attorneys controversy

  • A thorough reviewer will notice that more than a few citations are to dead links.
  • The article drops off in the summer of 2007,
  • It is non-uniform in how it handles its narrative: timeline versus thematic discussion
  • repetition of various issues among sections
  • which lead to the need for a comprehensive re-write of much of the article.

It would be preferable to colaborate with editors familiar with the article to see if it might be gone over and improved before submitting a Good Article nomination. Also, having the collaboration and goodwill of knowledgable editors means there might be prompt reply to failures to meet the GA standard. At the moment, there is no such advance commitment to do that.

  • What do you think of withdrawing the nomination pending some discussion on the talk page about the current state of the article?

[edit] Sweeney Todd

Thanks for catching my mistake! Typically, the Golden Globes uses the full title of the movie, as they did with Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan. This time they didn't (probably because the production company nominated it by its short title... I failed to realize that. Thanks for moving the page back! If you have any questions, please contact me at my talk page. Ian Manka 05:25, 14 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Re: Edit to Lost (season 4)

Perhaps =) I've been traveling around Europe for the past several months, so I haven't been keeping up with Wikipedia. I plan on slowly re-integrating myself into editing when I have some free time. Jtrost (T | C | #) 05:25, 20 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Sriram Das

Hi:I prodded the article already, and I don't think an article is supposed to prodded more then once. So how about dragging it to an afd? --brewcrewer (yada, yada) 06:03, 27 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] William Lowndes Yancey

This article's Good Article promotion has been put on hold. During review, some issues were discovered that can be resolved without a major re-write. This is how the article, as of January 6, 2008, compares against the six good article criteria:

  1. Well written?: Fail
  2. Factually accurate?: Fail
  3. Broad in coverage?: Pass
  4. Neutral point of view?: Pass
  5. Article stability? Pass
  6. Images?: Fail

Please address these matters soon and then leave a note here showing how they have been resolved. After 48 hours the article should be reviewed again. If these issues are not addressed within 7 days, the article may be failed without further notice. Thank you for your work so far. haydn_likes_carpet (talk) 22:45, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

Hi Wikipedical, I have passed William Lowndes Yancey as a Good Article. Well done! Please consider reviewing an article or two at WP:GAN to help with the backlog. --haydn_likes_carpet (talk) 00:30, 15 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Inducks

Hi, I've just added various external sources on the Inducks article. Maybe you want to have a look at them and consider if this affects your vote regarding the deletion of that page. Thanks. Herve661 (talk) 22:14, 12 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Spitzer

Where's your sense of humor or the moment (and the period wasn't necessary in your edit)? Spitzer deserves less than spittle. He might well be deleted from the improving list of notable HM alums.SLY111 (talk) 23:23, 13 March 2008 (UTC)SLY111


[edit] parenthesis clarification with the title of the series only

Referring to the CSI episodes. Why just include "(CSI)" when there are still plenty of articles with "(CSI episode)"? 92.233.156.165 (talk) 16:17, 26 March 2008 (UTC)ZoDanma
