Misplaced Pages

Revision as of 11:02, 30 September 2015

Just a little template for you.

I'm really unclear about what, if anything, the ping template does. Oh, well.   —Aladdin Sane (talk) 05:46, 17 March 2015 (UTC)

Talk of the town

In case you wondered, the above is a song reference from my generation. From the disam page: "Talk of the Town", a 1980 song by The Pretenders.

I didn't really mean it at first, but you are being discussed at "I mentioned you as a contrary reference on my User talk page.". The "you" in the title refers to Rjensen, not Bryce Carmony. The discussion, however, does, as it descends from the ANI. As I might have said there, "Shocking, just shocking" (a reference to the movie Casablanca), and meant both sardonically and in a diminutive sense, as was the original quote.   —Aladdin Sane (talk) 11:26, 17 March 2015 (UTC)

Melee

There was recently a deletion debate which you took part. The debate continues on the talk page of the article (see talk:Melee). Please join the debate so that a consensus can be reached on the initial issues of whether it is appropriate to include the maintenance {{coatrack}} at the top of the article Melee. --PBS-AWB (talk) 17:08, 6 May 2015 (UTC)

Invitation to comment on VP proposal: Establish WT:MoS as the official site for style Q&A on Misplaced Pages

You are being contacted because of your participation in the proposal to create a style noticeboard. An alternate solution, the full or partial endorsement of the style Q&A currently performed at WT:MoS, is now under discussion at the Village Pump. Darkfrog24 (talk) 21:20, 22 May 2015 (UTC)

Checking in

Hi Bryce! I just wanted to check in. How have things been going for you since our discussion? I must say, I'm impressed with your continued commitment to the 'Pedia, and professional demeanor on your user page. I don't doubt that you're an excellent editor, so I want to make sure that nothing has turned you off of editing. Do you feel any less stressed by other editors? Or do you feel like hitting your head against the wall at present?  ;-) – voidxor  01:27, 16 June 2015 (UTC)

Beatles

The Beatles were a band. See and please stop blindly reverting. Calidum 04:15, 30 September 2015 (UTC)

Discussing articles in userspace instead of the articles talk page is an attempt to circumvent consensus, if you have a disagreement about an article you can write about it in the articles talk page.Bryce Carmony (talk) 04:39, 30 September 2015 (UTC)

The consensus has been to use "were" forever. The only one undermining anything is you. The fact that you didn't even respond to the substance of my comment shows you have no idea what you're talking about. Calidum 04:46, 30 September 2015 (UTC)

Do you have a citation of the beatles being more than one band? if you do I'd love to add it to the article if not you are creating original research which is problematic. NPOV requires that we don't give undue weight to a fringe theory that the Beatles are multiple bands and NPOV is immune from consensus.Bryce Carmony (talk) 04:49, 30 September 2015 (UTC)

I'm glad it got sorted out at The Beatles but please don't take it too far in the other direction. Generally in the U.S., the verb used with sports teams follows the nominal number of the team's name - so, Washington Redskins "are", but Minnesota Wild "is".
