Please do not use {{tl|start date}} inside ref template. This is a huge no-no. The first thing in the template documentation states this. Dates should be spelled out and no templates used. ] (]) 08:27, 30 July 2014 (UTC)

::"Please do not use" is not a nice way? Egads, you are easily offended then. What, I should have said pretty please?
::First thing {{tl|start date}} says, {{tq|This template should not be used in citation templates such as Citation Style 1 and Citation Style 2, because it includes markup that will pollute the COinS metadata they produce}}. Citation Style 1 and 2 templates are {{tl|cite web}}, {{tl|citation}}, {{tl|cite news}} and any other cite templates. By adding start date, you screw up the metadata, which is on of the primary reasons for the cite templates. There is no "must not" on Misplaced Pages as there can be a situation where "must not" doesn't work. "Should" on Misplaced Pages is were we follow it unless the is a valid reason not to. All MOS pages never say "must", but {{tq|Use common sense in applying it; it will have occasional exceptions.}} Common sense in this case says not to screw up a primary reason for a template by adding another template.
::Also, you signature violates ]. Pretty please change the yellow text as it makes it impossible to read. ] (]) 20:52, 30 July 2014 (UTC)
:::Two things:
:::# There is no reason to be sarcastic; anyway, I was referring to the "huge no-no" part (I'm not bothered by much but being spoken to like I am a child is a serious pet peeve).
:::# I don't see how my signature violates ]; and anyway, I've had it for years and no one has ever said anything (it only shows up as yellow on my own talk page). Why do ''you'' have so many problems with what I do all of a sudden? '''<span style="color:orange;">Erpert</span>''' <small><sup><span style="color:yellow;">]</span></sup></small> 00:19, 31 July 2014 (UTC)
::::#I had no idea what you found offense. You have to be specific if you don't like something, otherwise all I can do is guess. Where I come from, "huge no-no" is not offensive in any way and is not a childish term. it is a kid's term. Next time, don't have thin skin and tell somebody what you don't like.
::::# Per ], {{tq| If you use different colors in your signature, please ensure that the result will be readable by people with color blindness, defective color vision, and other visual disabilities.}}. You couldn't make out what the yellow words were. I have eyesight problems. I notice reading issues. Everyday I correct disability issues. Everyday I read the same crap from editors... Ignore all rules, It does say I must follow it, etc. Recently, one long-time editor, who is now blocked, refused to put the TOC in the right location. He put it so 1/2 of the article is not readable by people who use screen readers. Their excuse, I can read it just fine and fuck the blind. I find it offensive that editors do not care if other people can read what is on the screen. ] (]) 04:56, 31 July 2014 (UTC)
:::::::When I archived this discussion, what in the world gave you the idea that that meant "let's bring it back and continue it"? And if the colors can cause problems, they shouldn't be options; also, if the words can't be seen, well, just use your mouse and highlight them (that's what ''I'' did, and I have vision problems myself; I wear glasses). Anyway, I never use ] because I think it's a cop-out. Now, go away (and do ''not'' restart this in a new section).

Nadia G's Bitchin' Kitchen: The cast deserves its credit too!

It is very regrettable that you have arbitrarily decided to delete the info on the supporting cast of the show. They have worked with her on the show, as well as its spin-off, "Bite This!"

Doing so would be akin to deleting George, Elaine, and Kramer from the Seinfeld page. After all, Nadia doesn't do the show completely by herself, and they contribute a significant amount if information and entertainment to the show.Kaos 42 (talk) 04:51, 4 August 2014 (UTC)

The way the cast was listed (if they are the cast at all; none of that information was sourced) was some serious fancruft. If you feel you can rewrite the information in a non-neutral way, more power to you. Erpert 08:48, 4 August 2014 (UTC)
Here's a couple sources, although it seems to list more or less everyone whoever appeared on the show. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1790927/fullcredits?ref_=tt_ov_st_sm
Also, here's the show's official website with the "official bios" (note the quotes) of ther cast. http://bitchinlifestyle.tv/crew-bios/Kaos 42 (talk) 01:28, 12 August 2014 (UTC)
You don't have to tell me all this; just add it to the article. Erpert 02:48, 12 August 2014 (UTC)

IPs aren't exempt to the tag at the top of this talk page.
You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on The Girl Next Door (2004 film). Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Please be particularly aware, Misplaced Pages's policy on edit warring states:

  1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made; that is to say, editors are not automatically "entitled" to three reverts.
  2. Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.177.156.78 (talk) 00:28, 5 August 2014 (UTC)

I'm not in an edit war; notice how I didn't re-revert. Erpert 01:03, 5 August 2014 (UTC)
"There are nicer ways to say that". 75.177.156.78 (talk) 01:24, 5 August 2014 (UTC)
