chicken song

Hey AussieLegend, the chicken song in the BBT is not trivial. Saying it is trivial in that particular episode is your own point of view. They (the writers) didn't choose it randomly. Are you as blind as Sheldon or Amy or can you see there is a meaning why they picked that song ? (not randomly and therefore NOT TRIVIAL). I'm getting tired here on WP to meet so much of (context)blindness Ziyalistix (talk) 21:00, 2 September 2012 (UTC)

For the purposes of the episode summary, it's trivial information that already makes a overly long episode summary excessively long. Episode summaries are supposed to be an overview of the episode's main events, and minutiae like dialogue, scene-by-scene breakdowns, individual jokes and technical detail should be avoided, as per MOS:TV. Summaries should be 100-300 words (with the upper limit being generally for 1 hour episodes) and this one is 299 words for a 22 minute episode without the chicken dance. It really needs to be pruned even more, not expanded with minutiae. Why the writers chose the song is irrelevant, and asserting that there was some reason without a reliable source supporting the reason is original research. --AussieLegend (talk) 05:35, 3 September 2012 (UTC)

And I watched the 8th episode of this season. It had again a song in it and I was wondering about. In the end I found out it was the song Everybody Hurts from R.E.M. that was used in that episode. I think it is a very bad thing not wanting to publish the used songs for a tv-program here on Misplaced Pages. It's something many people search for and blocked by few like you, who have no idea what "wanted" information all is about, I'm sorry to say. You are not helpful to the millions of searchers around the world wide web. Many People want to search and find out what song that was, only you as an individual think it isn't important enough. I'm sad for you. Talk further about the 100 to 300 words, maybe someone will think the same way Ziyalistix (talk) 19:17, 7 September 2012 (UTC)

The Big Bang Theory

Hello there. Regarding my contribution to The Big Bang Theory article, I would not agree that under my latest revision it bears any difference, regarding citations, to corresponding subsections of the "Elements" section of the show. Please feed back. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ngyi1983 (talk • contribs) 21:51, 8 September 2012 (UTC)

All content added to Misplaced Pages must be verifiable. Citations must directly support claims that are made. The references that you added do not do that. The entire section consists of original research of it, with much falling under WP:SYNTH. You need to provide reliable, secondary sources that confirms the claims that you have made. --AussieLegend (talk) 21:56, 8 September 2012 (UTC)

I understand that you see the passage as synthetic or novel. Have you considered the fact that it may be descriptive. Please compare it with the existing section on science and religion. I can make it less technical, for one thing. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ngyi1983 (talk • contribs) 22:00, 8 September 2012 (UTC)

It's not a case of being made less technical. Personal analysis is not permitted. As I have indicated above, you need reliable, secondary sources that support the claims that you have made. --AussieLegend (talk) 22:03, 8 September 2012 (UTC)

Could you please expose the difference between the description included in the "science"/ "religion" section, and my contribution. I understand that these other sections are disputed too, but they are there... Ngyi1983 (talk) 22:07, 8 September 2012 (UTC)

Ngyil1983, dont hold your breath. Benyoch (talk) 00:44, 14 September 2012 (UTC)

List of Degrassi: The Next Generation episodes

Sorry, I should have explained my actions earlier. I reverted your edits to the Degrassi: The Next Generation articles because you claimed that it would "provide for proper linking", but I saw no attempt to fix the links that you had broken by making those changes. Is there a way to search for links to anchors? I would like to fix links I broke when converting from the slashes. 117Avenue (talk) 03:21, 9 September 2012 (UTC)

The best way is probably to use AWB on each of the articles. The links will probably have to be changed manually, but AWB makes it easier to process each article. --AussieLegend (talk) 10:25, 9 September 2012 (UTC)

List of Dance Moms episodes

Here's the proof that the twenty-sixth episode of season 2 was the season finale: http://dancemoms.wikia.com/Nationals_90210 and http://thecelebritysizzle.com/dance-moms-spoilers-the-season-2-finale-national-90210/. There was another link, but it wouldn't let me save it. -- KyoXTohru1 —Preceding undated comment added 03:00, 13 September 2012 (UTC)

Wikis are not reliable sources and thecelebritysizzle.com seems to be an anonymous blog, and therfore not reliable either. Actual reliable sources like TV Guide and The Futon Critic show two parts of a reunion special still to air this season. The official guide shows Part 1 of the reunion. --AussieLegend (talk) 03:23, 13 September 2012 (UTC)

Where did "AussieLegend" come from? Well, obviously ... some people really are up themselves

I am curious about your claim ... 'I always thought was a bit up himself using the email address "legend@<domain>" so I decided to one-up him and become "Aussie legend". So, this would rightly mean when you decide to one-up John Laws then you become further up yourself than he would ever be? Yes, I think that is the only reasonable conclusion.
