Revision as of 12:24, 17 September 2006

Welcome!

Promo performances

Thanks for your message. I removed the lists of performances because it wasn't really clear what they were, nor if they were (or whether they could be) complete. Other articles on singles don't usually include such lists, but if you could make a case for them they could go back in. --Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 20:01, 29 January 2006 (UTC)

Thanks

Hi Thankyoubaby, thanks for supporting my request for adminship! Unfortunately, it ended with a final tally of 45/15/2, no consensus. I may have another go in the near future, once the school year is over. Thanks again! -- getcrunkjuice 23:10, 15 May 2006 (UTC)

Call on Me

Tokio Hot 100 is a radio station in Japan. It is not the Japanese charts. Charmed36 25 July 2006 (UTC)

Ain't No Other Man

Hello =) I've trimmed some of the charts on that page. My edit will probably be reverted by an IP soon, so I'll keep the page on my watchlist! — getcrunk what?! 01:48, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

AMA request

User Tigermichal continues to remove anything negative about the song, and is showing strong PoV on the page towards the song, and will not stop removing other's work, examples: removes anything on poor chart performance, adding unofficial charts. I have not added anything to the page, just monitered it and reverted this user's deletes. Just by looking at Tigermichal's talk page it's obvious this user is a loose canon. Just compare my last edit to his most recent one.

Thankyoubaby 23:33, 17 August 2006 (UTC)

Hello Windermere06, I'm Steve Caruso from the Association of Members' Advocates. I'm sorry to hear about your troubles with Tigermichal. I'm writing to inform you that we have recieved your request, and that we are currently in the process of finding you a suitable Advocate. You should be hearing from us soon. In the meantime, be sure to read through the AMA pages here at Misplaced Pages to get more aquainted with the process of Advocacy and what to expect. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to leave me a message on my talk page. :-) אמר Steve Caruso (desk/AMA) 16:56, 18 August 2006 (UTC)
Hi Thankyoubaby. I am Wikiwoohoo, a member of the AMA and I would like to help with the problem you are having. What I would ask is that you let me know the full details of the problem you are having and I will then contact the other party involved directly, in order to begin communication to solve the trouble quickly and with the least disruption. Thank you! Wikiwoohoo 19:01, 24 August 2006 (UTC)
Thank you for your message. I will now contact Tigermichal though I will taking a week long break from saturday the 26th of August. If I can receive a reply from the user either today or tomorrow then I will try to sort things then, otherwise, would you be able to wait another week, or I could ask one of my colleagues at the AMA to help you in my absence. In the meantime I will contact Tigermichal regarding the situation and your AMA request. Wikiwoohoo 20:40, 24 August 2006 (UTC)
Apologies but after checking today, I have found that I will in fact be away for two weeks from tomorrow rather than just one. You could email me via my details on my userpage however during this time and if possible I will reply to you through there. I have not as yet reeived a response from Tigermichal. Wikiwoohoo 20:56, 25 August 2006 (UTC)
Apologies for the delay in contacting you again but this is to check how the situation is progressing. If the problems you were having have ironed themselves out then I shall mark this case as closed on the AMA requests page but if you would like, continue to monitor it.

There has been no response so far from tigermichal to my message to them regarding the request. Wikiwoohoo 15:32, 13 September 2006 (UTC))

Personal attacks

  1. Please do not make personal attacks on other people. Misplaced Pages has a policy against personal attacks. In some cases, users who engage in personal attacks may be blocked from editing by administrators or banned by the arbitration committee. Comment on content, not on other contributors or people. Please resolve disputes appropriately. Thank you.
  2. Please do not remove legitimate warnings from your talk page or replace them with inappropriate content. Removing or maliciously altering warnings from your talk page will not remove them from the page history. You're welcome to archive your talk page, but be sure to provide a link to any deleted legitimate comments. If you continue to remove or vandalize legitimate warnings from your talk page, you will lose your privilege of editing your talk page. Thanks.
  3. I don't know what song article to which you were referring that had "about" in the title, but not too long ago the Misplaced Pages:Naming_conventions#Album_titles_and_band_names policy was changed to include the capitalisation of articles, prepositions (such as "about") and conjunctions if they are over four letters long. It's not about me "changing my mind"; it's about abiding by policy, which all users are expected to do.
  4. Your supposition that I merged the Ciara single articles into the album page because I dislike her is completely untrue. As can be seen at Talk:Goodies (album), at least one other editor agreed with me about merging; see also Misplaced Pages:Notability (songs) and the related talk page (to which I directed readers of the Goodies talk page). If one user does something and explains why on the talk page, and several other users revert without responding civilly or at all to them (for an indication of the temperament of one of the users who reverted me, see, for example, this), then how are those editors "good" and the other one "nitpicky"? The main reason I didn't try to merge the "And I" article again was because I knew sooner or later someone would revert me again, with or without explaining themselves. It's quality of articles, not quantity, that matters; if an album article is extremely short, why write dozens of short song articles that only consist of padding and marketing-report material (chart positions), when they can be combined to make the album article more comprehensive?
  5. That my userpage is frequently vandalised means, if anything, that some users prefer to engage in ad hominem attacks rather than discuss issues with me on my talk page. I see that you have chosen to write about me on your userpage rather than tell me why you think my edits are problematic; if you believe there are sufficient grounds, file an request for comment on me, but users are generally supposed to make an effort to resolve the dispute first (and ignoring other editors is generally frowned upon).
