Your recent edits

Hello. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Misplaced Pages pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. You could also click on the signature button or located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment.

Re:Logo reducing

You don't need to do anything. A bot will come along and resize the logo and remove the reduce tag when it's done. We hope (talk) 02:38, 30 April 2012 (UTC)

OH! Thank-you. Also, I would prefer to use the other license (promotional) if possible because that was more in-line with the permission that was granted when I downloaded the graphic. Is there a way to change that or should I wait 'till the bot comes-along? HousewifeHater 02:47, 30 April 2012 (UTC)

Let me go back and take care of that also. BTW--the only time to worry that something's going to disappear is when a notice says something about the image being deleted or being deleted in X number of days unless you take care of (fill in the blank). ;-)We hope (talk) 02:52, 30 April 2012 (UTC)

A done deal! :-) We hope (talk) 02:55, 30 April 2012 (UTC)

Muuy Thank-You! Yeah that is exactly what I was worried about because I thought that I saw something that said that the clock was ticking-something about "48 hours"...maybe that has something to do with the bot that re-sizes?? Also-I want to make sure that I use the graphic/and license correctly because I would like to start cleaning-up some of the other Real Housewives pages HousewifeHater 02:57, 30 April 2012 (UTC)

These Misplaced Pages:Template messages/Deletion are the ones that say something serious is up. The bot usually does the resizing within those 48 hours. ;-) We hope (talk) 03:02, 30 April 2012 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:The Real Housewives of New Jersey.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:The Real Housewives of New Jersey.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Misplaced Pages under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Misplaced Pages. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Misplaced Pages (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Senator2029 ‖ Talk 19:15, 27 April 2013 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for May 28

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Misplaced Pages appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Atlantic City, New Jersey, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Imitation of Life (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.

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 14:53, 28 May 2013 (UTC)

July 2013

Your recent editing history at The Great Gatsby (2013 film) shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

To avoid being blocked, instead of reverting please consider using the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. See BRD for how this is done. You can post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.  — Statυs (talk, contribs) 04:18, 15 July 2013 (UTC)

I think that I will take it to IRC thank-youTeeVeeed (talk) 04:19, 15 July 2013 (UTC)

Good idea. I definitely agree with you that it's an Australian film. I'm not even sure how it's even an American film; it's only tie is that the distributor is American. But I'm not sure how much that really matters. It's clear the other editor is having no interest in discussing the matter.  — Statυs (talk, contribs) 04:23, 15 July 2013 (UTC)

TY-I didn't even start it, trying to follow procedure but instead getting pulled into warring. Plus I resent the additional clarifications and cites that I added being "poofed"-like that.TeeVeeed (talk) 04:28, 15 July 2013 (UTC)

The other editor finally responded on the talk page that the film was distributed by Warner Bro. But there is also a link to "Baz"-"Boz"? (a producer?) in a secondary source titled, "Baz/Boz says GG is "Australian". If there is some policy involved with countries and movies, that would be different, but the financial assistance provided, (and probably the controversy surrounding that)-should probably be included.TeeVeeed (talk) 04

DRN Restructure

There seems to be a problem with the DRN page this morning.]

I was not able to get to our page to post my comment because the links to open disputes are all broken. I am going to be unavailable for most of the day so I'm leaving my comment here which you can post if you wish, or, I will try again at the end of the day when I'm back home.

Thank you for your help.

If comments could stay focused on the text only I think we could make useful progress. It's very hard to look at text and comment when simultaneously your character is being attacked. I still think we need a neutral third party arbitrator in cases where consensus can't be reached.

LoreMariano (talk) 12:47, 18 July 2013 (UTC)

I'm trying to fix something with how the dispute is listed.

I'm sorry if you feel attacked with anything that has been said there so far, but I assure you that any comments that I made about trying to solve the problem by following the usual policy of Misplaced Pages was not aimed at you or any other editors personally. I think that someone such as myself who looked at the article for the first time, not knowing anything at all about the topic, is a pretty good representative of a user of Misplaced Pages.TeeVeeed (talk) 11:56, 19 July 2013 (UTC)

Tildes

Hi, I notice that you are leaving edit summaries with four tildes in them ~~~~, probably due to the message SineBot left on your account when you first started. I wanted to let you know that leaving these in edit summaries is ineffectual and just clutters the field. Tildes are required when discussing on talk pages, it is how you sign your posts by leaving them at the end of a line, as wikicode inside the box. The Wiki substs them automatically into a signature. This process does not happen in edit summaries, which are intended to be concise digests of what you did. Individual edits are always "signed" with your name in the database, so we can always tell who did them and there is no need to sign. I hope that clears it up for you. Elizium23 (talk) 04:23, 29 July 2013 (UTC)

WHAT? I had no idea! Ty for letting me know about that. It might take awhile to get out of that habit.So-don't sign when editing articles? Wow.Housewifehader (talk) 05:11, 30 July 2013 (UTC)

You're welcome. It looks like you're on the right track. Elizium23 (talk) 05:21, 30 July 2013 (UTC)

Alternate accounts

I note that you are editing under both User:Housewifehader and User:TeeVeeed. The policy on that is at WP:SOCK#LEGIT and I do not see that you are using alternate accounts for an illegitimate purpose. But, with a previous block for block evasion, I would very strongly recommend that you disclose your alternate accounts on your TeeVeeed user page (not here on your talk page) using one of the user boxes listed here and be very, very careful not to use them for any purpose which might even remotely be thought by someone to be illegitimate. Best regards, TransporterMan (TALK) 20:01, 29 July 2013 (UTC)

Thank-you for the advice. I will attempt to try that but I am having a lot of trouble staying with one account! All of my contributions keep vanishing, (so it looks like i have been here less-than four days!), and the system keeps logging me out. I am really thinking about trying a CLEANSTART, just to get a new account at this point, no SP intended, and i have never SP'd or tried to intentionally pretend that i am not one person here. That SP investigation that was alleged actually was between myself and another(S?) editor, because I agreed with his edits so I was accused of being one of his/their socks. It wasn't even about me being a sock really.OH-and my agreement to not be banned from the SP bs, was that I would log-in with a user name, and really I had better luck staying with the same identity when I was IP-editing. Now I have to look for my IP, my old name, and my new name, and 90% of the contributions that I make while logged-in are not showing-up when I want to check on my older edits with those screen-names. That's why I'm thinking that it might be worth a try to start another account and drop this one?Housewifehader (talk) 05:07, 30 July 2013 (UTC)Housewifehader (talk) 05:03, 30 July 2013 (UTC)

The new face of DRN: TeeVeeed

Recently the Dispute Resolution Noticeboard underwent some changes in how it operates. Part of the change involved a new list of volunteers with a bit of information about the people behind the names.

You are listed as a volunteer at DRN currently, to update your profile is simple, just click here. Thanks, Cabe6403 17:15, 7 August 2013 (UTC)

Your involvement with DRN

Hi there, I noticed that you haven't been as active at DRN as you was before. DRN has been a bit backlogged lately and we could use some extra hands. We have updated our volunteer list to a new format, Misplaced Pages:Dispute resolution noticeboard/Volunteers (your name is still there under the old format if you haven't updated it) and are looking into ways to make DRN more effective and more rewarding for volunteers (your input is appreciated!). If you don't have much time to volunteer at the moment, that's fine too, just move your name to the inactive list (you're free to add yourself back to active at any time). Hope to see you again soon :) Steven Zhang (talk) 13:19, 25 September 2013 (UTC)

DRN needs assistance

You are receiving this message because you have listed yourself as a volunteer at the Dispute Resolution Noticeboard.

We have a backlog of cases there which need volunteer attention. If you have time available, please take one or more of these cases.

If you do not intend to take cases or help with the administration of DRN on a regular basis, or if you do not wish to receive further notices of this nature, please remove your username from the volunteer list. If you later decide to resume activities at DRN you may relist your name at that time.

Best regards, TransporterMan 15:52, 8 January 2015 (UTC) (current DRN coordinator)

Help needed at DRN

You are receiving this message because you are signed up as a volunteer at the Dispute Resolution Noticeboard. We have a number of pending requests which need a volunteer to address them. Unless you are an inexperienced volunteer who is currently just watching DRN to learn our processes, please take a case. If you do not see yourself taking cases in the foreseeable future, please remove yourself from the volunteer list so that we can have a better idea of the size of our pool of volunteers; if you do see yourself taking cases, please watchlist the DRN page and keep an eye out to see if there are cases which are ready for a volunteer. We have recently had to refuse a number of cases because they were listed for days with no volunteer willing to take them, despite there being almost 150 volunteers listed on the volunteer page.

Hello, I'm GenQuest. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Ahmed Abou Hashima, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you.

Edit warring

Your recent editing history shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.CFredkin (talk) 23:56, 19 March 2016 (UTC)

Yeah-that is exactly what you are doing warring behavior. Personally, I think that after or before current issues are resolved, maybe you should take a topic-break? You're getting a little heavy-handed, imo.TeeVeeed (talk) 00:04, 20 March 2016 (UTC)

DRN help needed and volunteer roll call

You are receiving this message because you have listed yourself on the list of volunteers at Misplaced Pages:Dispute resolution noticeboard/Volunteering#List of the DRN volunteers.

First, assistance is needed at DRN. We have recently closed a number of cases without any services being provided for lack of a volunteer willing to take the case. There are at least three cases awaiting a volunteer at this moment. Please consider taking one.

Second, this is a volunteer roll call. If you remain interested in helping at DRN and are willing to actively do so by taking at least one case (and seeing it through) or helping with administrative matters at least once per calendar month, please add your name to this roll call list. Individuals currently on the principal volunteer list who do not add their name on the roll call list will be removed from the principal volunteer list after June 30, 2016 unless the DRN Coordinator chooses to retain their name for the best interest of DRN or the encyclopedia. Individuals whose names are removed after June 30, 2016, should feel free to re-add their names to the principal volunteer list, but are respectfully requested not to do so unless they are willing to take part at DRN at least one time per month as noted above. No one is going to be monitoring to see if you live up to that commitment, but we respectfully ask that you either live up to it or remove your name from the principal volunteer list.
