Caps: perhaps I've got it all wrong
Hi Joja, we went through the telecom resistance to downcasing in items such as named protocols. Well, OK, although I'm not entirely happy with that. We hav established that laws, theories, theorems, principles, rules, should be downcased. Am I wrong to assume that named indexes should be downcased? Many are already downcased on WP and in the open literature. I'd appreciate your advice on the arguments for and against in this respect. Tony (talk) 07:01, 28 December 2011 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification
Hi. When you recently edited Marketing mix, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Franchise (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).

Silent River Film Festival
Long unsourced lists are not encyclopedic, even if sourced. We are not the film festival's promotional website. Yworo (talk) 03:19, 6 January 2012 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Silent River Film Festival
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
A tag has been placed on Silent River Film Festival requesting that it be speedily deleted from Misplaced Pages. This has been done because the article, which appears to be about a real person, individual animal(s), an organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, does not indicate how or why the subject of the article is important or significant: that is, why an article about it should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.
If you can assert the importance of the subject, . Clicking that button will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the article's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. You may freely add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Misplaced Pages guidelines.
See the guidelines for specific types of articles: biographies, websites, bands, or companies. Yworo (talk) 03:25, 6 January 2012 (UTC)
January 2012
Please do not add or change content without verifying it by citing reliable sources, as you did to Silent River Film Festival. Please review the guidelines at Misplaced Pages:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. You compared these additions to 2011 Sundance Film Festival. All the lists in that article have sources. Thank you. Yworo (talk) 14:42, 6 January 2012 (UTC)
- You're so quick on the trigger with this article that I wasn't able to add sources (they exist!) before you deleted the content. Since you appear to be unwilling to locate or supply sources yourself, I suggest you back off for a bit while others work on this. I find it especially unseemly when proponents of speedy deletion remove content during discussion. Last, I suggest you use the article talk page for these discussions. Jojalozzo 15:01, 6 January 2012 (UTC)
- I didn't remove any content until the speedy had been declined. Watch your accusations and don't make them until you have made sure they are true, I searched for sources on Google News, there was only one, and it was already used in the article. Yworo (talk) 15:22, 6 January 2012 (UTC)
- My apologies. I didn't see that bit of timing. Though I still question deletion of content while proposing deletion of the article unless you felt it might give the article a better chance to survive the proposal. In any case, I agree that the list of all entries was not so useful and is better replaced with the list of awardees, so it's all moot now. Jojalozzo 16:22, 6 January 2012 (UTC)

Gallery Added
(I'm copying this to Talk:Overpass#Gallery_Added let's continue the discussion there.)
Regarding the images on the article Overpass, the prior arrangement was somewhat unsightly due to the relatively small amount of text on the page and the large number of images. I left one image out of the gallery because, in my opinion, it was the image that is most descriptive of the concept of Overpass/flyover.
I did intend to move the image to the right side of the article, but I forgot to do that. I have just corrected that oversight.
In your note you mentioned that the images were, "moved ... to the railroad overpass section." I'm not sure what you mean. The article, and the gallery I added, is about both highway and railroad overpasses. What I did was create a gallery for all but one of the images to make the article flow better visually.
Finally, the policy I mentioned in my edit summary is Section 3.2 of Misplaced Pages Manual of Style/Images which talks about how to locate an image. But I was also influenced by Section 2 of Misplaced Pages:Picture tutorial, Avoiding stack-ups where we learn that stacking multiple images against large amounts of white space is visually undesirable. My edit was intended to fix that.
Finally if your interest is in railroad overpasses, I think the article would benefit from more railroad related images. If you have any that would be appropriate that would be great.

Violation of copyrights
Hello , You have violated the copyrights by editing the image without the permission from the owner, please revert back the images to original form. or face legal action. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Shrikanthv (talk • contribs) 09:09, 12 January 2012 (UTC)
- Shrikanthv, you seem to have forgotten that the license granted for that image explicitly included the right to modify it, which is what Jojalozzo has done, removing branding to make the image more useful to the public. You have been blocked for making a legal threat here, and will not be unblocked until that threat is explicitly withdrawn. --Orange Mike | Talk 22:09, 12 January 2012 (UTC)

Caps or no caps
I think overall capitalization makes but a trivial difference to encyclopedic content, but items such as Last Supper are generally caps. I think you should ask on talk pages before running a rename lawnmower all over the place. You seem to be renaming many many pages at will. This is overdosing on lower cases now. History2007 (talk) 18:07, 13 January 2012 (UTC)
- I think capitalization confers meaning and when it's applied inconsistently then meaning is confused. Last supper is down=cased per WP:DOCTCAPS (by my interpretation). I hear you on the lawnmower analogy. Sometimes it's hard to hold back. Jojalozzo 18:18, 13 January 2012 (UTC)
- Ok, so please discuss it at the Last Supper page to figure it out. Thanks. History2007 (talk) 18:20, 13 January 2012 (UTC)
See Misplaced Pages talk: WikiProject Christianity#Application of MOS guidelines on capitalization in articles on Christianity. Jojalozzo 19:08, 13 January 2012 (UTC)
- Yes indeed, you don't seem to have consensus there, & I will apply to have your premature renames reversed; they should have been discussed at each page first. You are misinterpreting the policy, which indeed could be clearer. Johnbod (talk) 02:07, 14 January 2012 (UTC)
- An RfC should stay active for a few days before consensus can be determined. Please see Misplaced Pages:Requests for comment#Ending RfCs. Jojalozzo 02:10, 14 January 2012 (UTC)
- It can stay "open" as long as you like, but you should not be making changes based on the reverse of the way it is clearly going in the meantime. Jesus at Herod's court is ok I think, but the others may not be. The Last Supper is very clearly a proper noun phrase, just like Gunpowder Plot. Johnbod (talk) 02:14, 14 January 2012 (UTC)
