I'll give him more time. He's probably having a Wikibreak. He's not always quick to respond. And as for Mount Rushmore, good idea, I would have to include three more in the box though because I try to even it up. You have any thoughts for those three are I will be glad to hear it. − Jhenderson 18:18, 16 December 2010 (UTC)

Advice
You're written a number of article stubs that require sourcing and inline citations to show notability. The film articles Cousin Bette and World War II: When Lions Roared look do-able. But a somewhat greater concern is the BLPs for Lauri Johnson, Tanya Fischer, Brian Patrick Wade, Nyambi Nyambi, David Valdes, Janet MacLachlan, Kenny Marino, and Keir Pearson. I would hate that they ended up at deletion discussion because they have not been improved. Care for some assistance? Schmidt, 20:10, 22 December 2010 (UTC)

Was just doing a moratorium on the most recent beat-down, and noticed I screwed up your initials a while back on the talk page. You'd think "RAP" would come more readily to mind than the acronym for the English's Royal Air Force in the 21st century. But perhaps that was just the form my PTSD took.

I saw your request for a UBX. Anything particular you want the description to say? Thanks, Adwiii Talk 21:12, 18 May 2011 (UTC)
- I have done a little bit of research into the movie (as I have not seen it) and I can't figure out what "famous quote" you want, there seems to be a few. Sorry i can't be of more help here, Adwiii Talk 14:28, 21 May 2011 (UTC)

Pirahna
I thought it was called Piranha 3DD or something? I don't mind helping where I can. Darkwarriorblake (talk) 15:10, 25 May 2011 (UTC)
- It's a problem on lots of pages, there are thousands of movies and only a handful of people to deal with them. That is particularly bad as it is a complete rundown of the entire film but unfortunately I haven't seen it so I don't know enough to say what is important and cut the rest. Least I don't remember seeing it, maybe as a kid but I don't remember anything about it. I try not to edit stuff I haven't seen so I don't remove stuff that is important. If you've seen it, feel free to layeth the smacketh down upon the article. Darkwarriorblake (talk) 15:07, 8 June 2011 (UTC)

- Ok it might be best to wait for confirmed filming. But it is still important to know the dating of when you started the article. Jhenderson 15:27, 28 May 2011 (UTC)
- In case you haven't figured it out. With the citation that you were adding. You just missed adding <ref> </ref> on the citation. Jhenderson 15:40, 28 May 2011 (UTC)

- Well yeah, if it is that different (I wouldn't know) they should call it something else because I doubt there are that many 21 Jump Street fans lying about that calling it that will attract a huge audience. But it still looked pretty funny, I'm loving the load of good comedies we've been getting lately.Darkwarriorblake (talk) 01:01, 3 November 2011 (UTC)

Piece of advice
I don't think she's going to let up with the mocking and I'm feeling pretty disillusioned right now so I doubt that admins are going to do anything about it seeing as how you've been given warnings for incivility while her attitude has been left to ride. My advice? Step away from the whole mess for now. I know you're trying to patch things up so that the content can be worked on (anyone with a modicum of reading comprehension skills can see that). But I think it's going to (extremely unfairly) dig a hole for you instead of accomplishing your goal. Find some other pages to work on for now and let the Buffy pages ride. While there are some GAs and FAs in the bunch, a fair amount of them have been cruft for a long time now. A little while longer isn't going to hurt. But I think you have a lot to offer and don't want to see you get ridden out by overzealous admins who refuse to read the history that led to your (understandable) defensiveness. Am I making any sense? I'm pretty frelling angry at how all of this is shaking out so I may not be. Millahnna (talk) 13:12, 27 October 2011 (UTC)
- And for the record, I wouldn't have guessed you were only 17 from how you write in general around the site. I say this as a chick old enough to be your (very young) mother (I'm 35). If the conversation hadn't gotten so heated that I started checking editor talk pages to fill in the gaps, I'd never have had a clue. You come off much better than some of the supposed grown ups my age and older around here. So ignore all of the agist BS getting thrown your way; it's totally unwarranted. Millahnna (talk) 13:30, 27 October 2011 (UTC)
Ditto. While I think you originally handled this in a suboptimal manner and I wish you hadn't risen to the bait thrown at you, you certainly didn't deserve the treatment you received either, and I do believe your changes were well-meaning. I'm doing what I can to repair the situation while avoiding my apparently non-productive involvement with the actual project at this time. While I'm sure this must have tarnished your opinion of Misplaced Pages, I do hope that you'll stick around...and frankly, I care a lot more about the quality of one's contributions to the project than how old they are or how long they've been here.

Template:Alien
I'm just going to hit the highlights since any long discusion should wind up on the template talk page.
Standing consensus regarding biographies is that:
- People are not categorized by employer or projects they have contributed to.
- They are also not included in navigation boxes for an employer or specific projects. This is especially true with actors and filmmakers.
Both of these are to prevent bloating in the footer of the article where prolific people can wind up with dozens of templates and categories making both worthless.
There are exceptions out there, but they tend to be few and they generally have tight limits on who gets added to the templates. But even then you wind up with something like the collapsed mess at Stan Lee.
There might, might, be good reason to add in the creators of the the two franchise. But not each director, screenwriter, producer, etc. And definitely not the actors.

Deletion discussion about Paradise Lost (2012 film)
Hello, Rusted AutoParts, and thanks for contributing to Misplaced Pages!
I wanted to let you know that some editors are discussing at Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Paradise Lost (2012 film) whether the article Paradise Lost (2012 film) should be in Misplaced Pages. I encourage you to comment there if you think the article should be kept in the encyclopedia.
The deletion discussion doesn't mean you did something wrong. In fact, other editors may have useful suggestions on how you can continue editing and improving Paradise Lost (2012 film), which I encourage you to do. If you have any questions, feel free to ask at the Help Desk.
Thanks again for your contributions! Template:Z82 BOVINEBOY2008 18:01, 4 December 2011 (UTC)

Re: Talk:Pretty Much Dead Already
- Discussion relocated from User talk:SMcCandlish; it's about the editing of Rusted AutoParts, not SMcCandlish.
Unfortunately, i do not view Misplaced Pages as an oligarchy, where the minority can trump the majority. spoilers are allowed, but whatever. I changed the picture. And NEVER accuse me of something i'm not. RAP (talk) 14:17 6 December 2011 (UTC)
- Or what? Go ahead and threaten me, like you did the one of the other editors who disagreed with you, please. You'll just be making my point for me. I have not accused you of being anything; while I don't go so far as E-Prime, I'm very cognizant of the difference between addressing perceived actions and labeling a person. I stand by my description of your behavior at that article, however. If you take issue with some aspect of the criticism, I'll by happy to explain, though I'm highly skeptical such a discussion would be productive, and certain that you would find it unpleasant (not because I'm mean, but because the facts, and more to the point your own words, speak for themselves, and what they say is not flattering).
- Also, you need to read WP:NOT#DEMOCRACY and WP:CONSENSUS (not to mention oligarchy; the term refers to a form of hierarchical rule by a colluding elite, which has nothing to do with the debate that was at hand, unless you think I and others disagreeing with you wield some kind of special wiki-political power that is wiki-oppressing you because of your wiki-economic wiki-class). In point of fact, one or more editors with principled, defensible objections do actually generally result in a case of no consensus having been reached (at that point; further discussion usually resolves matters).
- What really applied in this situation was the Bold-Revert-Discuss Cycle: You boldly inserted a spoiler, based on a minor guideline that does not trump policy or even other guidelines; others reverted this, giving reasons in both edit summary and talk page, because they felt the spoiler went too far and that you were not properly interpreting that guideline. What ame next should have been the discussion and consensus-building stage, but you short-circuited that with a editwar, aggressive behavior and outright filibustering, and even blatantly violated the Three-Revert Rule, an unwavering policy (except when reverting vandalism); you're lucky no one reported this at WP:ANI, because you would certainly have been blocked for a while, even if people ultimately agreed with your take on WP:SPOILER, which they mostly don't (I recall that one commentator on that talk page agreed with you, maybe there were even two, but the rest of us did not; bad odds).
- PS: When other editors suggest that you read this policy or that guideline, you really should read them. The fact that your edit summaries show that you misinterpreted my reference to WP:LAWYER as some kind of legal threat suggests that you are not reading any Misplaced Pages policy documents other than the ones you like for personal reasons, such as WP:SPOILER. You won't do well here if that's the tactic you take.
- PPS: You are a Notophthalmus viridescens!!! There, I just accused you of being something you are not. To quote St. Hulka from Stripes, "Lighten up, Francis."
- — SMcCandlish Talk⇒ ʕ(ل)ˀ Contribs. 00:41, 7 December 2011 (UTC)
- "It is not acceptable to delete information from an article because you think it spoils the plot." A simple statement of well-established consensus on Misplaced Pages. Article-specific talk page discussion does not override this general principle. Every article about a film or TV show should summarize the plot, without any regard for some people's emotional feelings about "spoilers". The same principle applies to images. Anyone who doesn't want to encounter a "spoiler" should not read the applicable Misplaced Pages article. Problem solved. Cullen Let's discuss it 07:00, 7 December 2011 (UTC)
Orphaned non-free image File:Sophia, Zombie.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Sophia, Zombie.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. Skier Dude (talk) 06:36, 7 December 2011 (UTC)
Conduct
Rather than go around littering every single talk page, I thought it best to bring this discussion somewhere more appropriate. I must admit I am not impressed by the way you have acted towards me, and hope that we can find some kind of resolution. You have accused me of a lot of things, none of which are true, and you seem to be trying to undermine my integrity as an editor. Warning people on their talk pages of things I might do to "their" articles is really the last straw.
At risk of repeating myself, I would invite you to re-read the guidelines at WP:NFF and WP:GNG and suggest that you only introduce articles for future films when they are in fact notable. This would avoid the frustration you may feel when other experienced and conscientious editors try to redirect these or nominate them for deletion. No-one is picking on you, just the articles. You may want to consider re-reading WP:OWN as well. You shouldn't feel protective over the articles. I know you're creating them in good faith.
I am not going around, as you have accused me of more than once, looking for articles to delete. However, from time to time, I do monitor certain things, and if I find vandalism, I will revert it, and sometimes, if I find articles that go against guidelines, I will try to fix this too.
You seem to want to disregard guidelines, saying that they are "just guidelines". Whilst this is true to some extent, they are here for a reason. They have been discussed and agreed upon by other editors, and consensus has been found. Therefore they are a good marker of common consensus and, whilst they should be treated with common sense, they should be, for the most part followed, as they distil the essence of other policies and guidelines, as well as the opinions of other editors. Of course, it is not always practical to follow them, but when it is, I believe this is the best course of action.
I'm sorry I had to bring this here, but I cannot let the way you have been acting towards and about me continue. Please do not assume bad faith. You seem to want to discredit me and make me into some kind of monster. I'm not - I'm just acting, like we all are, to make Misplaced Pages a better and more encyclopedic place. Sometimes different editors have differing opinions of what that is, but again, that is why we have guidelines to follow.
You know, we'd probably get on in real life. Have a good weekend! --Rob Sinden (talk) 17:03, 9 December 2011 (UTC)
- Well, i do act sometimes as if i own the articles, but that's really not why i get upset. When i created the Star Trek 2 article, it took me 3 hours of digging into the underbellies of the internet to source every last statement in the article so it be accurate. That's when i lose my cool. WP:NFF only annoys me because of that one part. When i create an article, i create it so over time it can flourish, rather than the day it begins filming, scramble to throw together a quick, half-assed article. As shown, the likes of Man of Steel and currently Star Trek 2 has been a frequently contributed to set of articles. Due to a one month premature creation, they could one day be featured articles or GA. And you're right, we could probably get along in real life. RAP (talk) 17:50 9 December 2011 (UTC)
- I can understand that frustration. When I redirected the Star Trek article, I'm sure I copied across the text though... That's what I mean about developing the articles on the subject matter page - that way the article can be developed until it's notable in its own right and there's no risk of people (like me!) coming along and nominating for deletion. I remember talk of a Godzilla film and the article survived a couple of AfDs and still hasn't seen the light of day - that's the kind of thing that shouldn't be on here. Eventually there was consensus to have that merged to the Godzilla (franchise) page. --I'm sure that won't be the case with Star Trek, but it can happen with other projects. --Rob Sinden (talk) 18:07, 9 December 2011 (UTC)

New Year's Eve
I thought I'd come here about my reversion of one of your edits. I tried to make my edit summary clear, but I didn't understand why you wanted to reorder the cast without listing the "starring" cast first. And I didn't understand what you meant by "remerge". I'll watch your Talk page so we can discuss it if you like.--Bbb23 (talk) 01:56, 14 December 2011 (UTC)
- I'd hardly call it an edit war. In your first change, you never said you were reordering the cast alphabetically - you didn't clarify that until you reverted. At least now I understand what you were doing. I tried to see if there was any consensus for alphabetical ordering at the Film Project's Talk page, but, so far, no consensus at all. So, I'll leave it the way you have it.--Bbb23 (talk) 04:44, 15 December 2011 (UTC)
Paradise Lost (2013 film)
You recently took part in a deletion discussion for this film, but given new information that the film is now on hold, would suggest a redirect to Paradise Lost#Films is more appropriate as per WP:NFF, and as per suggested by multiple editors at the deletion discussion. Would appreciate input at Talk:Paradise Lost (2013 film)#Redirect. --Rob Sinden (talk) 09:13, 14 December 2011 (UTC)
3RR
A breach of WP:3RR requires more than three reversions in a 24-hour period, so this is incorrect. According to the history at Russell Crowe, Bidgee has made only three reversions in 24 hours recently, so he hasn't breached 3RR. As of right now, he has made only two reversions in the past 24 hours, so right now he's not even close. However, you have made three, so you're close to breaching 3RR right now. For the record, Bidgee is correct, including a film that is in pre-production is WP:CRYSTAL. The film itself fails WP:NFF, so there shouldn't even be an article on it.--AussieLegend (talk) 16:57, 20 December 2011 (UTC)

As the editor trying to add to the article, the burden is on you to gain consensus for your additions. Blatantly edit-warring is inappropriate. Open the discussion first, gain consensus to add your content and then add it. Don't add it and then expect it to remain in the article while discussion is underway. The status-quo normally stands until there is consensus to change. You know that. --AussieLegend (talk) 09:21, 21 December 2011 (UTC)

So, just now I noticed you jumped the gun on me and nominated The Lion King. Well, you'd better put refs in Home media and Sequels/spinoffs, replace fansite ones (though one I just fixed to hide...), and fix the styling throughout the article (some are bare urls, other lack publisher, etc.), just for starters. I may even help you with that sometime. igordebraga ≠ 01:40, 10 January 2012 (UTC)

Non-free rationale for File:Tensessions.jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Tensessions.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under non-free content criteria, but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Misplaced Pages is acceptable. Please go to the file description page, and edit it to include a non-free rationale.
If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified the non-free rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Misplaced Pages page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Fut.Perf. ☼ 14:59, 16 January 2012 (UTC)
A good guideline
Please go here: http://en.wikipedia.org/Talk:Dorothy_L._Sayers#Written_like_an_essay to see how I handled the fact that I am about to do a major overhaul of an article, and note the specifics I gave, the reasons, the time-line, and the chance for others to comment. This is a good example of how to proceed when a big change has to be made by someone the page writers have never heard of before. If you follow such examples, you should avoid the sort of trouble stirred up before. Good luck in all your future endeavors.--TEHodson 20:45, 16 January 2012 (UTC)

Mike Comrie
Hey,
Note sure if you're aware or not, but to be included on the specific season page a player has to meet very stringent criteria (see here: Misplaced Pages:WikiProject_Ice_Hockey/NHL_season_pages_format#Debuts_and_Last_Games), which is meant to keep those who play just a few games or have minor journeyman careers (which I would argue Comrie fall under), as the list would simply just become too long. Note that this is a much more stringent criteria than WP:GNG or WP:NHOCKEY for having their own page. I looked closely, but don't see any category which Comrie falls under. If i'm wrong, re-add with the source (retirement, that is); or if you want to contest it, do so at the talk page. Ravendrop 02:59, 15 February 2012 (UTC)
Your edit on Act of Valor
Hello, I've reverted your edit on Act of Valor. It seems there was a missunderstanding. The parts I edited back in weren't the parts that were subject to a copyright violation. The "obvious copyright violation" that Parrot of Doom was talking about was not reverted back into the article. Also, with your edit, you reverted some vandalism back into the article and removed a valid category. This is also why I reverted your edit. 77.248.191.124 (talk) 15:14, 16 February 2012 (UTC)

RRHOF... Again
There is now a note. Why is that not acceptable? You said originally that you felt the distinction should be made. And now it is, which satisfies your demands. And everything is still in one category and follows the source, which satisfies this demand. Either way, I've requested a third opinion.
By the way, we're both probably going to get blocked again. Enjoy your day(s) off! -- Scorpion 23:53, 2 April 2012 (UTC)
Oh I did see that, and I still disagree. They are performers, so they should be included in the main table. Even if they are still in the same section, you're creating a distinction that the RRHOF disagrees with. Having everything in one table is also useful for sortability purposes. That way users can sort all performers alphabetically. -- Scorpion 02:27, 3 April 2012 (UTC)
April 2012
You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on List of Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductees. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.
Please be particularly aware, Misplaced Pages's policy on edit warring states:
- Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made; that is to say, editors are not automatically "entitled" to three reverts.
- Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.
If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. TransporterMan (TALK) | DR goes to Wikimania! 00:34, 3 April 2012 (UTC)

Hi, Rusted. Well, I won't revert at this point, but now the article contradicts itself: The lead and the infobox say April 14, but the main article body, in the death section, gives both the 13th and the 14th. We can't have the article contradict itself. What would be the best solution? --Tenebrae (talk) 02:49, 2 May 2012 (UTC)
- Well, it's more than speculation — it was reported the 13th by the LA Times, the Washington Post and USA Today, to name three major papers. And both they and the ones saying the 14th have cited family sources since the family made a premature statement and then told a few papers something different. So that's not a practical phrase. And having someone shoot the tombstone is OR.
- With all due respect, when major WP:RS papers contradict themselves, we can only report what they all say. Picking one over the other is POV. It also goes against the consensus on the article talk page.--Tenebrae (talk) 03:00, 2 May 2012 (UTC)

I've noticed that you have been removing The Intouchables from the list of highest grossing films on 2012 in film. Currently, the majority of people participating in a discussion on Talk:2012 in film think that The Intouchables should be included on the top 10 list. As I explained there, if we want to list films by the how much money they made in a given calander year, that would require significant changes to the film years lists. For instance, films like Avatar and Titanic, that made lots of money in the following year after their release, would need to be moved to another year or appear on two lists. Many other films might change places on the lists, as many films that were released near the end of the year probably made a lot of their money in the next year. I think the easiest way to handle the lists (and the way I think they have been handled until now) is to list films' grosses all for one year, and to use Box Office Mojo as the source for what year a film is counted in. I don't see a compelling reason to change from doing that. If you disagree, please discuss the reasons why you think we should do something different at Talk:2012 in film, rather than just removing The Intouchables from the list without explanation.

Edit-warring on BLPs
Your recent editing history at Bill Maher 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.
Your edit summary (he is very against religion. He is atheist) indicates a misunderstanding of what an Athiest is; it has nothing to do with religion, and refers to deities. Your edit summary (give me a source saying he's agnostic, whereas his actions on his show clearly show otherwise) indicates a misunderstanding of Misplaced Pages editing policy; we do not edit BLPs based on our own perceptions of a person's actions. We must rely instead on reliable sources. Maher has self-identified many times as an Agnostic. He has been referred to as an Agnostic in a multitude of reliable sources, such as this one, so he would fit that category. He has at times even denied that he is an Atheist.

Comic book movie
Hey i didn't want to revert you...but comic book movie seems to count as unreliable source. Tenebrae probably started with the realization of that. But overall if you notice it even says "fansite" on the url and that is close enough to prove that it's not really on Misplaced Pages's standards. Even still go on with your good work on Misplaced Pages Jhenderson 19:39, 14 June 2012 (UTC)
Tom Maynard 18 June 2012
In Deaths in 2012 you and another editor appear to disagree whether cause of death for Tom Maynard should be "train strike" or "hit by train," but I can't tell who prefers which. The current version is "train strike." Just inviting you to discuss this on Talk:Deaths in 2012 if you want. Guyovski (talk) 18:05, 18 June 2012 (UTC)

Once you stop being rude.Rusted AutoParts 14:26, 6 July 2012 (UTC)
- What on earth are you talking about? I am completely perplexed. You think it's rude to mention her scar? I think there are probably hundreds of people who heard something from a source of questionable reliablilty (say, Entertainment Tonight), and would come to us for the accurate story, which--with a source like the Daily Mail--we could provide for them. You are entitled to disagree about whether or not this merits inclusion, but to suggest I'm being rude is preposterous.
- Understand this: We do not all think identically here, and we need to recognize that when dealing with others. If you think I'm being rude, explain why, because it's sure as hell not clear to me why you think this. (Note: I do accept that you are being sincere in this accusation; if I was presuming to know everything, I might just conclude that you were being a troll, but I'm choosing to regard this as incomplete communication.) But when you do communicate, please be careful in how you do it. I still have absolutely no idea what word you were intending when you wrote "intricle". I looked it up, it doesn't exist, so I tried to guess what word you may have misspelled, and I just can't figure it out. So the point is, I'm trying to understand you. Now do your part, and please make yourself more clear.
- And of course, it follows from this, that perhaps I'm failing to make myself clear. If this is the case, please say so.
- Cheers, 76.106.149.108 (talk) 13:28, 7 July 2012 (UTC)
- Firstly, i was referring to previous edit summaries, where you have a rude demeanor. And your reply here is quite rude with sentences like "understand this" or doing this to certain words. And intrical (i spelt it wrong) is another word for integral, meaning it isn't a necessary part of the article. Rusted AutoParts 14:28, 7 July 2012 (UTC)
- Thank you, RAP, for your civil and cogent response. I'd like to reply now:
- First of all, on the article in question, I have made four edits, and left three edit summaries. To wit:
- Edit summary: No edit summary was left; I suppose that could be regarded as uncivil.
- Edit summary: Kiss off. Was that uncivil? Clearly, yes. Yet I hasten to point out that a) this was several days ago, b) it did not involve you, and c) the involved editor and I have worked things out rather well.
- Edit summary: Respectfully disagree with reverting editor. Consider A) it got a lot of coverage in the meda, and B) wikipedia is increasingly THE source for accurate information, and someone could well come here looking to verify this. Was this uncivil? Not in any universe I've visited. Indeed, if there were an award for the Epitome in Edit Summary Excellence, I think I'd put my own name in nomination for that one. And I hasten to point out that the editor I reverted there, User:Dodger67, expressed no misgivings about my demeanor.
- Edit summary: Well, I think we can agree that the addition was not "intricle" to the article, or anything else. I'll hold off on reverting your removal of material that I believe I justified, and ask that you tell us what word you were trying to use. Was this uncivil? I'm presuming you think it was, since this is the only one of my edit summaries that pertains directly to you. Here's my take: Actions speak louder than words. Now look at my actions: I did NOT revert you, even though I disagreed with you, because I wanted to give you another chance to explain yourself. If that's not civil, I don't know what is.
- My conclusion is that my edit summaries, while imperfect, do not distract so greatly that we could not have been discussing the content of the article, which is what I was clearly trying to do.
- When you say I am being rude by using phrases like "Understand this", I am not totally certain I understand, but I'm guessing that you feel it sounds dogmatic or overbearing. I choose, when I read someone else's words (and knowing that I cannot see them) to interpret their words as charitably as possible, so I would never have come to that conclusion. But, keeping in mind WP:CIVIL, I have to acknowledge that I cannot expect other editors to read the way I do. So I apologize for giving offense, and will try to avoid this in the future (though I'm sure the habit will take a long time to break).
- Now when you say I do this to certain words, are you speaking of the use of italics to indicate emphasis? If this is a complaint, I'm going to have to respectfully disagree. RAP, if we were sitting down in the same room, both you and I (unless you are a Rusty Bot) would be italicizing words all the time. Written English provides very few ways to add natural emphasis to our words. Of the four that come to mind (underlining, boldfacing, italicizing, and ALL CAPS), I tend to think that italicizing is the mildest and yet most effective way to imitate the natural "feel" of speech. And I don't understand why it would offend you. I've been editing Misplaced Pages since 2006, and this is the first time I've ever seen that complaint.
- Good talking to you. 76.106.149.108 (talk) 16:19, 7 July 2012 (UTC)
- I don't know, maybe it's the way you come off. I read this and all i can think of is "this guy is rude." Especially when you go into great detail to defend yourself, and even in the above comment, it seems very rude and condescending.Rusted AutoParts 04:58, 8 July 2012 (UTC)
- Well, I don't really know what to say. When I speak briefly, via edit summaries, I come across rude. When I "go into great detail", I come across rude. It's not helpful that you're not nailing down details, but that's not necessarily your fault, since sometimes (just as you say) someone can just "come off" in a certain way.

- I think it's best in a situation like this to simply assume good faith (which shouldn't be too hard to do, since I'm taking an awful lot of time trying to work things out with you) and instead of inferring my attitude, just look at my work and my ideas for the articles. After all, even if I am a bastard, that doesn't mean I can't be a valuable contributor to the encyclopedia, right? What do you say? 76.106.149.108 (talk) 12:16, 8 July 2012 (UTC)
2012 in film
I checked a few of the names you removed here, and the ones I looked at appear to be legitimate 2012 film industry deaths? Is there a reason you removed them? Cresix (talk) 21:45, 3 August 2012 (UTC)
- Every actor is considered notable if he/she has a Misplaced Pages article. I will be restoring them. In the future, please get a consensus on the talk page for such a major deletion instead of making a unilateral decision. If you feel that some of the actors are not notable enough for Misplaced Pages, you can go through the normal deletion process. Thanks. Cresix (talk) 21:55, 3 August 2012 (UTC)
- Since you're a regular I won't template you. But I suggest that you review WP:EW and ask you to discuss on the talk page instead of edit warring and making unilateral decisions. That's the way it's done on Misplaced Pages. You've been around long enough to know that. Cresix (talk) 19:21, 4 August 2012 (UTC)
- Edit warring includes more than 3RR. Again, review WP:EW. You are edit warring if you continue to revert after being asked to discuss on the talk page. Your opinion about what is "bloated" carries no more weight than my opinion or any other editor's opinion. All of the names are linked to Misplaced Pages articles. You alone don't decide what is notable. Please stop continuing to remove the information without getting consensus on the talk page. As I said, you've been around long enough to know this.

Hi Rusted AutoParts. I've just come across the "Notable deaths" section in this article, where you've edited it to include many people who died in 2010. It appears it has stayed that way for months now. I'm confused as to what's going on there. In your edit summary you refer to "an expansion process"...? Thanks, Paul Erik 07:11, 9 August 2012 (UTC)
Proposed deletion of Madison Lintz
The article Madison Lintz has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Misplaced Pages policy, all newly created biographies of living persons must have at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.
If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one. Mr. Vernon (talk) 16:59, 12 August 2012 (UTC)

- Just a heads up, you're past 3RR with this edit. It's likely someone will report you at WP:AN3, if you don't mind me suggesting, perhaps the best thing to do would be to self-revert until some consensus is reached on the talk page, in order to avoid being blocked? - SudoGhost 00:19, 2 September 2012 (UTC)

Take a look at this article House of Japan news report which dates from November 2010 and this Japan Today article which dates to January 2011.

When a man receives a knighthood, 'Sir' becomes a title part of their style of address. What on earth can it have to do with 'weight'? Sam Blacketer (talk) 16:31, 13 October 2012 (UTC)
- I'm disappointed that you have not replied. You are quite wrong; WP:NCR states that biography articles on Knights do not normally include 'Sir' in the article title, save where it is useful for disambiguation, but it is still a title that is invariably quoted on the entries in the Deaths in ... series.

Proposed deletion of Madison Lintz
The article Madison Lintz has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Misplaced Pages policy, this newly created biography of a living person will be deleted unless it has at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.
I reverted the redirect and PRODded the article as I don't think it's correct to redirect a person's bio to a TV show she appeared in. She has appeared in several other roles. It should either be made a real sourced article or deleted.
See WP:REDIRECT#DELETE: "If the redirect could plausibly be expanded into an article, and the target article contains virtually no information on the subject. In such a case, it is better that the target article contain a redlink than a redirect back to itself." Barsoomian (talk) 05:39, 30 October 2012 (UTC)
- Don't just put the redirect back. See Misplaced Pages:BLPPROD#Objecting. And The Walking Dead is not her only credit. She's also in Parental Guidance (film), After (2012 film) at least. That's why it's wrong to redirect to The Walking Dead. Barsoomian (talk) 14:30, 30 October 2012 (UTC)

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 1 month for personal attacks.. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding below this notice the text{{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}

This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).
Rusted AutoParts (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))
Request reason:
Well, considering the debate is still open and i've been blocked before i had the chance to explain myself, perhaps we should look at this as trigger happy and too soon? Plujs, allow me to point out the editor whose feelings i've "hurt" continued to revert? A little biased in his favor too.
Decline reason:
No grounds for unblock provided. This was quite sufficient. --jpgordon 22:20, 3 November 2012 (UTC)
If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.
- Your defence to "personal attacks" is "BUT WAIT, PEOPLE ARE STILL TALKING"? And you have a chance to explain yourself here. I'd suggest you take advantage of it. Ironholds (talk) 22:09, 3 November 2012 (UTC)
- Note. I notice this User Account has been blocked 3 times. I do not understand how This can lead to a Block, unlike the other Blocks that I seen on this User Account before. This is not too extreme to lead to a Block again. I suggest giving him a Warning instead, with a strong reminder that the next time will be an Semi-Permanent Block.--Bumblezellio (talk) 09:38, 4 November 2012 (UTC)
- My problem is that there is an ANI discussion about the conduct i used on the BB talk page and i can't discuss it as i was blocked way before i had the chance to explain plus the block wasn't even suggested at all, one editor just did it. I'm wondering why this occured when a block for the personal attacks wasn't even suggested. RAP (talk) 14:10 4 November 2012 (UTC)
- Alright, i'll move the ANI discussion here.
Rusted AutoParts (talk · contribs) began reverting me on Breaking Bad without discussion. When I initiated one on the talk page (here), he instantly became aggravated and starting pouring a bucket of ad hominems at me, while skewing other editors' opinions to conveniently suit his editing choice, which is discriminatory and offensive in nature. This is how his replies build up:
- Bullshit.
- Classic case of discrimination. (Pot calling the kettle... what?)
- "Corrected" the previous attack to an even more obviously personal one: Classic case of Americanism. "Made in America, so English only". Proud of yourself? (referring to my reply here, where I merely pointed out that it only makes sense that a US production, which airs on a US channel, will be primarily in English.)
- The big finish: Suck my d**k.
I know I should have known better and stopped reverting too, but RAP's outrageous barrage of attacks got the best of me. Hearfourmewesique (talk) 18:11, 3 November 2012 (UTC)
- Where do I begin? Bullshit. This wasn't even directed at you personally, i was stating that your theory German was a main language was. German was used twice in two episodes of one season, and Spanish, as Drivethroughosts pointed out, has been used in 4 seasons in a highly used manner. Classic case of discrimination. (Pot calling the kettle... what?)
"Corrected" the previous attack to an even more obviously personal one: Classic case of Americanism. "Made in America, so English only". Proud of yourself? (referring to my reply here, where I merely pointed out that it only makes sense that a US production, which airs on a US channel, will be primarily in English.) Now, i was going to remove this completely, but I know that is frowned upon. I thought it was the case as it was odd your focus shifted to just English being used, but I soon realized that you were just being petty because German was removed. Speaking of which, how did you get off scot clean when you continuously edit warred, even when i asked you stop until someone had the same exact view as you (Spanish and German, or none), as the comments clearly stated they were fine with Spanish staying in? And lastly is where the only place I'll apologize for (My car was damaged purposely around this time, so i was pretty pissed off). Asking anyone to perform fellatio is just grotesque, so i do apologize. None of these responses were aimed to be personal, but seeing as it hurt your feelings, i sit confused. I could just as easily cry at the sheer stupidity that was displayed. But i won't as i rarely cry and you aren't stupid, but the whole situation was stupid and unnecessarily escalated. Now, with that said, Hearfourmewesique, if it's an apology you seek, you'll not receive one (except the fellatio), but i do hope you acknowledge this wasn't a personal attack, just poorly expressed frustration. RAP (talk) 15:11 4 November 2012 (UTC)
- "suck my dick" is merely poorly expressed frustration? Get better at expressing frustration. Find a way of doing it that isn't so gratuitously and unnecessarily offensive. People who don't tend not to (or, rather shouldn't) last. Ironholds (talk) 15:26, 4 November 2012 (UTC)
- I already explained what spawned that crude and awful response. Some kids keyed my car and smashed a window. I wasn't exactly pleased in real life and on here. I regret the statement and can only hope that you can see that. RAP (talk) 15:33 4 November 2012 (UTC)
- I hope it passes in court for you someday: "Sorry your honor, some kids smashed my car window so I stabbed my neighbor." If you truly believe this is not a personal attack, you might be unsuitable for Misplaced Pages altogether. Hearfourmewesique (talk) 20:54, 4 November 2012 (UTC)
- A couple more points:
- Even if "bullshit" wasn't directed at me, this is not an appropriate tone to begin your part of a discussion. Especially when you refused to initiate it to begin with, forcing me to do so myself.
- Someone DID have the exact same view as I, it was TheOldJacobite, the second comment in the thread. Another editor expressed that his ideal position is just English, but he didn't care for it enough to vote either way. It doesn't mean, by ANY applicable logic, that he supports you, mainly because his ideal position is the same as mine. You are still misrepresenting those editors, and if that's not bad enough – you point at me in the most infantile of manners (hey look, the kid I just threw a rock at spilled ice cream over your lawn!) to try and soften your own fall. This, too, is extremely unsuitable for Misplaced Pages.
- Another piece of advice (still unsure why I even bother to begin with) – remaining unapologetic and refusing to acknowledge that you actually did hurt someone's feelings by putting quotation marks and using excessive sarcasm whenever the subject comes up is, again, the last thing you want to do. That is, if you want to redeem yourself. Hearfourmewesique (talk) 21:22, 4 November 2012 (UTC)
- Some tips for you as well:
- I hope it passes in court for you someday: "Sorry your honor, some kids smashed my car window so I stabbed my neighbor." If you truly believe this is not a personal attack, you might be unsuitable for Misplaced Pages altogether. Hearfourmewesique (talk) 20:54, 4 November 2012 (UTC)

- When someone asks for you to wait until a more ironed out consensus (IE, if that one editor is divided, you and Jacobite say no and me and another editor say it's fine) DON'T continue to revert, even if "my outrageous barrage of attacks" (i'm not putting quotes around this as a sarcastic theme, rather quoting what you said) gets "the best of you" (again, not meant to be sarcastic). I've been in that boat before, it don't hold water.
- When someone says "They misread your intentions" (meaning when you claimed I discriminated against you, how?) for one thing and then realizing it was you saying "my way or the highway", don't continue claiming discrimination, as it's slanderous to me.
- No one is a saint or a sinner in this case. My hopes is for both of us to push this behind us and be able to work together rather than biting one another's head off. And yes, my anger towards the vandals to my car should not have been radiated onto you. I am much calmer and reading back on half the things i've said, i must have come off as a giant asshole. I do apologize in all scenarios and perhaps this month block would give me time to really work on becoming a better editor. RAP (talk) 21:55 4 November 2012 (UTC)

Heya
In an attempt to get past the impasse that has been reached re the capitalisation of I in intro on the Star Trek into Darkness article, I have created two additional sub-sections where users can put their for/against argument comments in without getting caught up in Beating a dead horse. These sections are purely for providing reasons and not for arguing back and forth, although discussions are welcome to continue in the above section. If you could come and give your view that would be great. MisterShiney ✉ 21:31, 7 December 2012 (UTC)

In particular for the ongoing discussion on Star Trek into Darkness regarding a pesky little I.

Personal attacks
Regardless of the merit of your arguments, you are again resorting to edit-warring and personal attacks in edit summaries (such as here) as opposed to pursuing dispute resolution. Note if it continues you will very likely be blocked again. As your last block was for a month I'm sure you can find it within yourself to discuss the Matt Dallas article on the talk page or via WP:BLPN as opposed to arguing and calling others who disagree with you "stupid" via edit summaries? --Jezebel'sPonyo 20:12, 16 January 2013 (UTC)

I think the Deaths in 2013 page is wrong. The BBC source cited there doesn't actually give a date whereas the Guardian obit (which actually is cited in the Sophia Haque article) does. I will take this to Talk:Deaths in 2013.--ukexpat (talk) 17:23, 28 January 2013 (UTC)

Hi, sorry, but this post isn't acceptable. Ed 17:12, 1 February 2013 (UTC)
- That is an personalized and borderline personal attack not suitable for the article talk namespace. You put it on his user talk page, he read it, then removed it. Drop the stick; this is a last warning. Regards, Ed 17:35, 1 February 2013 (UTC)
