Bus Stop's disruptive editing
Hi Tony. There's a serious problem with Bus Stop and his disruptive editing. Check out this, which is a transparent attenpt to grotesquely distort what was in the source. This comes mere hours after being told to stop. He is fully conscious of his actions (though astoundingly feigning innocence). He is clearly not editing in good faith.

Thanks for your upload to Misplaced Pages:
You provided a source, but it is difficult for other users to examine the copyright status of the image because the source is incomplete. Please consider clarifying the exact source so that the copyright status may be checked more easily. It is best to specify the exact Web page where you found the image, rather than only giving the source domain or the URL of the image file itself. Please update the image description with a URL that will be more helpful to other users in determining the copyright status.
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source in a complete manner. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page or me at my talk page. Thank you. Message delivered by Theo's Little Bot (opt-out) 21:07, 1 August 2013 (UTC)

FOUR lists
Sorry, I can't remember how I originally did those lists. I've created User:J Milburn/List for Tony, which lists every article in Category:Did you know articles that are featured articles that isn't listed on Misplaced Pages:Four Award/Records. This is by no means a perfect check (as the category is incomplete, and some FAs formerly a DYK perhaps won't have been through GAC), but may help you find some more. Sorry!

Requesting your opinion on a photo
Hi. We really need your opinion on which of these photos would make the best Infobox portrait for the Rick Remender article. Could you please offer your opinion in that discussion? The most recent subsection of that discussion is here, so you can just chime in there if you don't want to read the whole thread. I really appreciate it. Thanks.

In a World...
I did not remove anything from the page. I simply moved the background farther down the page, after the plot and cast because in every film article I've seen in the past, those two things always go first. Yes, I should have used an edit summary, but you also should have made sure that it was actually vandalism before treating it as such. JDDJS (talk) 04:09, 8 August 2013 (UTC)
Wham support/oppose
The only bold strong oppose under my signature is me quoting Modernist in disgust. Since the ones responsible for promoting/archiving are humans and not robots, I can't imagine it possibly being an issue. Curly Turkey (gobble) 11:42, 8 August 2013 (UTC)
- Sorry to see the article was archived. I hope it doesn't discourage you from trying again, though I totally sympathize with why you wouldn't. Curly Turkey (gobble) 00:07, 12 August 2013 (UTC)
- I'll likely support, though there are things I'd prefer to see worded differently. Curly Turkey (gobble) 13:08, 12 August 2013 (UTC)

DYK for In a World...
| On 9 August 2013, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article In a World..., which you created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that Lake Bell wrote the female-protagonist-driven In a World... after being intrigued that the prototypical movie trailer voice was male? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/In a World.... You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, quick check) and it will be added to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page. |

Articles you might like to edit, from SuggestBot
We are currently running a study on the effects of adding additional information to SuggestBot's suggestions. Participation in the study is voluntary. Should you wish to not participate in the study, or have questions or concerns, you can find contact information on the SuggestBot study page.
IMPORTANT CHANGES: We have modified the selection of articles SuggestBot suggests and altered the design to incorporate more information about the articles, as described in this explanation.
Note: All columns in this table are sortable, allowing you to rearrange the table so the articles most interesting to you are shown at the top. All images have mouse-over popups with more information.

Changes to SuggestBot's suggestions
We have changed the number of suggested articles and which categories they are selected from. The number of stubs has been greatly reduced, the number of articles needing sources doubled, and two new categories added (orphans and unencyclopaedic articles). We have also modified the layout of the suggestions and added sortable columns with various types of information about each article. The first two columns are:
- Views/Day
- Daily average number of views an article's had over the past 14 days.
- Quality
- Predicted article quality on a 1- to 3-star scale. Placing your cursor over the stars should give you a pop-up describing the article's quality (Low/Medium/High), current assessment class, and predicted assessment class.
The method we use to predict article quality also allows us to assess whether an article might need specific types of work in order to improve its quality. The work needed might not correspond to cleanup tags added to the article, since our method is not based on those. We have added five columns reflecting this work assessment, where a red X indicates improvement is needed. Placing your cursor over an X should give you a pop-up with a short description of the work needed. The five columns seek to answer the following five questions:
- Content
- Is more content needed?
- Headings
- Does this article have an appropriate section structure?
- Images
- Is the number of illustrative images about right?
- Links
- Does this article link to enough other Misplaced Pages articles?
- Sources
- For its length, is there an appropriate number of citations to sources in this article?
SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. We appreciate that you have signed up to receive suggestions regularly, your contributions make Misplaced Pages better — thanks for helping!
If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please let us know on SuggestBot's talk page. Regards from Nettrom (talk), SuggestBot's caretaker. -- SuggestBot (talk) 23:43, 12 August 2013 (UTC)

Image review for Whaam!
Hello Tony, maybe it's a good idea to get a second opinion for the fair-use situation in Whaam!. User:Masem is active in fair-use discussions and also seems to have some knowledge in the topic itself; they may be better able to judge the relevance of the used images, especially of the sketch. Just a suggestion to avoid any unnecessary, lengthy disputes for the second nomination - of course i am glad to help, if you have any further questions on images for the nomination. GermanJoe (talk) 20:04, 13 August 2013 (UTC)
GLAM and WALRUS
Hi Tony. GLAM isn't really a centralized effort, but I've been involved in it for a couple of years, have done a fair aount of museum and library stuff, and sort of started the Misplaced Pages Loves Libraries thing. There are no hard eligibility requirements for WALRUS, we just want people who are reliable and have a bit of wiki experience, and who have the trust of their local community (incidentally, we're in the midst of another WALRUS naming debate - meta:WALRUS/August 2013!). Also, thanks for pointing out my error, of course I meant Sept 21 for Misplaced Pages Takes America.--Pharos (talk) 20:24, 14 August 2013 (UTC)
Carlos Brown (American football)
In looking at some Mich. football articles, it appears that the article you developed on Carlos Brown (American football) was heavily vandalized. I'm not sure what's vandalism and what's not, but thought you'd want to know. I also notified Jweiss, and he's done some reverting, but it could definitely use another set of eyes (and some updating as well). Cbl62 (talk) 05:18, 15 August 2013 (UTC)

Nice to hear from you, Tony. Things are going fine here, I just won a bet and am on my way out next door to collect my margarita prize, and likely will NOT be doing much editing afterwards. My only Chicago news is that I just received a nice red tee-shirt from my daughter - it was the shirt from her school during the teachers' strike last year. I wear it with pride.

- On the other hand, you caught me at the right moment, and I posted my suggestions to the article's talk page about five minutes ago. Finetooth (talk) 22:13, 21 August 2013 (UTC)
- Oh, bother! I see this morning that what I reviewed was actually 2013 NCAA Men's Division I Basketball Tournament rather than the one you asked me to review. I think the one I reviewed has a good chance at promotion if you are interested. It needs a little more work on the citations, mainly. My suggestions are on the talk page of the tournament article. Sorry about the mixup. Finetooth (talk) 17:30, 22 August 2013 (UTC)
Nomination of Jarmere Jenkins for deletion

Let me politely refuse this thanks
Hey Tony, I see that you're mass-adding notices of thanks to GA reviewers, and I'd appreciate it if you'd leave me out from any further notes. Frankly, I'd prefer if we didn't interact for a bit after your spreading bad-faith accusations against me over more than a hundred project and user pages just two days ago, which to my knowledge you haven't in any way retracted. But even if that weren't the case, it's unnecessary to give to me an individual userbox for any article I review. Let's just take a break. Cheers, -- Khazar2 (talk) 19:09, 21 August 2013 (UTC)

WP:NSONGS
Please see WP:NSONGS, the song has yet to even receive its official release as a single so why would we have an article on it? That makes zero sense. You can create it in your sandbox, and do a little thing called waiting. You might want to also see WP:TOOSOON and WP:CRYSTAL. Will it probably chart? Yes, but it is CRYSTAL BALLING to just assume it will and that the song is notable. This is why "Survival" does not have an article, when if anything Survival has been covered more by sources, the audio barely came out two-three hours, there should not be an encyclopedia article on the topic yet. Any proper content is available on the album article. The song currently fails WP:NSONGS and WP:GNG. STATic message me! 06:13, 27 August 2013 (UTC)
- There is a lot reliably sourced content out there. Misplaced Pages's job is to summarize this. This passes both NSONGS and GNG for this reason. We have every reason to believe that this article will grow to more than a stub. Readers are probably googling and looking for content.--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 06:41, 27 August 2013 (UTC)
- And everything that was mentioned in the article is already found at The Marshall Mathers LP 2. The article definitely does not pass NSONGS and GNG, you might want to have a good look through of the two pages. "We have every reason to believe that this article will grow to more than a stub. Readers are probably googling and looking for content." sounds alot like WP:CRYSTAL to me. You really need to understand WP:DR and have a proper discussion before jumping to AN. But I see that you have a negative history there, which makes you taking it there make even less sense. STATic message me! 06:55, 27 August 2013 (UTC)
- The fact that people are denying a place for this article and forcing the content to be in the album, has no bearing on whether this article should exist. Yes it fails the three enumerated reasons, but those are not criteria, but rather suggested considerations. Reread the first sentence: "Songs and singles are probably notable if they have been the subject of multiple, non-trivial published works whose sources are independent of the artist and label. This includes published works in all forms, such as newspaper articles, other books, television documentaries and reviews". This song passes that test. Let your fingers do the walking on google. There are several articles out there.--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 07:03, 27 August 2013 (UTC)

We noticed though that when you edited Kasim Reed, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page WGCL (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.
