I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your messages on discussion pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, check out Misplaced Pages:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question on this page and then place {{helpme}} before the question. Again, welcome!

Verifiability

Just to let you know, your changes were reverted because your source was an illegal upload. While youtube is a great resource for viewers it is not a source allowable on Misplaced Pages as it is technically illegal to upload scenes from Days of our Lives. Thank you for understanding. If you can find another source, I was unable to, you can return the reverted content. Again, thank you. IrishLass (talk) 13:45, 2 January 2008 (UTC)

Post note: You can also not use geocity fan sites, including Dustin's site. While some believe Dustin to be the ultimate authority, many do not. Regardless, at the end of the day, Dustin is only a fan, not a reliable source per WP:V. IrishLass (talk) 16:53, 2 January 2008 (UTC)

Advice

Just as a friendly note, if you want to prove people wrong about who you are, I'd say just go edit some articles. That would make it rapidly obvious that you're a "real" editor and not a secondary account. Looking at your contribs though, Rm994 (talk · contribs), it seems that you've been focused on little else but KellyAna for the last month. Things are definitely in motion now though, so you don't need to give it so much attention. Just get back to the encyclopedia, and we'll get the rest sorted out.  :) --Elonka 04:07, 6 April 2008 (UTC)

Yeah, DAYS is the only show I watch, therefore the only page I really touch. Don't have too much time though, being in grad school. But I REALLY appreciate your advice. And I didn't mean to sound so hateful in my email to you, I was just a little angry about the situation. Thanks again!!! Rm994 (talk) 04:12, 6 April 2008 (UTC)

Then by all means, work on the DAYS articles. There are definitely plenty which need cleanup, especially to have plot summaries trimmed down and real-world sources added: Category:Days of our Lives. Or, just click on "Random article" in the lefthand navigation toolbox a few times. I find that if I do that, and rapidly click through multiple articles, I usually find something that needs fixing within less than a minute. Even if you're just bolding a title or adding a section header, every little bit counts.  :) --Elonka 05:51, 7 April 2008 (UTC)

Sorry

You have been cleared by WP:RFCU of having any relationship with KellyAna and/or Irishlass0128 so I will again personally apologize for my suspicions. -- Dougie WII (talk) 21:24, 7 April 2008 (UTC)

I'm moving this from the mainspace as Dougie WII accidentally posted it to a non-existent article talkpage rather than your user talkpgae. AniMate 22:47, 8 April 2008 (UTC)

Days of our Lives

Hey. I haven't found any other sites for Days "comings and goings" concerning Melanie, let alone for anyone. By the way, who is Melanie and when is she scheduled to appear on the show? Later dude! HabsMTL (talk) 21:32, 4 July 2008 (UTC)

Hey. Someone apparently has not followed the WP rules concerning a name change. That person decided that it should Lucas Horton and not Lucas Roberts. Can you look into it and have it changed? Thanks bro! HabsMTL (talk) 00:58, 22 July 2008 (UTC)

Well if my entry for Melanie Layton was erased then I would like to see the entry for Liberty Ciccone from As The World Turns erased as well. As you put it, a character has to be present for YEARS in order to get an entry. I will be keeping tabs on this request. Thank You Phenomenon8980 (talk) 17:30, 16 September 2008 (UTC)

I will report you for vandalizing my page then too! Lay off my stuff and Ill lay off yours. Nobody needs your input.

July 2008

Welcome to Misplaced Pages. The recent edit you made to List of Days of our Lives cast members has been reverted, as it appears to be unconstructive. Use the sandbox for testing; if you believe the edit was constructive, ensure that you provide an informative edit summary. You may also wish to read the introduction to editing. Thanks. —Sean Whitton / 15:16, 24 July 2008 (UTC)

Sorry, not sure what happened there. Your edits certainly weren't vandalism. I think I may have hit the wrong article. Thanks for your understanding. —Sean Whitton / 15:21, 24 July 2008 (UTC)

RE: Help

Hey. I've taken a look at the article history and I can see that you've had your work cut out. However, semi-protection (that is, blocking ip edits and edits by accounts under four days old) is only applied when things are really out of control *now* - i.e. the edits are going on presently, and from what I can see you haven't had trouble for several days. If I were you I would watchlist the article and keep and eye and keep posting messages to their talk pages, in the hope that one gets read. If it does get worse, take a look at requests for page protection. Thanks. —Sean Whitton / 09:29, 25 July 2008 (UTC)
