Aston Martin Music (Wale song)

Hi. I just saw this edit you made to Aston Martin Music (Wale song) calling it a hoax. Could you explain to me why you think that? Because if it is a hoax it should be deleted, not just redirected. Cheers, Jenks24 (talk) 05:55, 21 March 2013 (UTC)

Album artworks

I saw no point at all, of you uploading an image that was EXACTLY the same for "Freaks". Doing this creates extra work for the Admins, as that one tried to point out to you multiple times. I do not know if you wanted to seem like the one who uploaded it first or what but there is no sense in those type of uploads. There is no noticeable difference between the two images. STATic message me! 01:00, 23 March 2013 (UTC)

Maybe it seemed clearer to you or on your computer, or the "colors seem better". It is still the same exact image. I have been here for much longer then you so I know more about what is and is not new to Misplaced Pages. As long as it properly displays the cover and is 300x300 or less, there is no point in a new upload to create more work. We both have to work together here and, I do not mean to come off harsh but it just seemed pretty pointless to me. STATic message me! 01:13, 23 March 2013 (UTC)

So it seems that the cover with just the tiger for Hotel California is the version for the deluxe and standard versions. Also i'm curious why you uploaded new versions of Wolf and Bugatti at all, let alone on separate file pages? STATic message me! 23:13, 4 April 2013 (UTC)

I meant next time just upload it on the same file page as the old one. Do not just create a whole new file: page. As for Hotel California it should just be the one with the tiger. I am trying to revert it to that one on the file page but for some reason everytime I try it turns back into the previous one. You know how to revert a image back right? STATic message me! 23:41, 4 April 2013 (UTC)

Alright good job I saw that. STATic message me! 23:46, 4 April 2013 (UTC)

What part of uploading a new version of a album cover on the same file page do you not understand? STATic message me! 17:54, 7 April 2013 (UTC)

Letting you know it is more work for the admins to delete a whole file then to just eventually delete old versions of a file, it also keeps all the history and everything together. Trust me at this I am just trying to help you out. STATic message me! 20:06, 7 April 2013 (UTC)

Or I understand what you mean, is the thing that happened with the Hotel California happening elsewhere? STATic message me! 20:10, 7 April 2013 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for April 2

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Misplaced Pages appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited 1999 (mixtape), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Sample (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.

Eve

Eve's new independent label is called "Blondie Rockwell Inc." not "From the Rib". As shown on Amazon, iTunes etc. Also "She Bad Bad" was the first release on Blondie Rockwell, followed by "Make It Out this Town". Please check your edits before changing factual information. — Lil_℧niquℇ №1 22:23, 5 April 2013 (UTC)

RED Distribution run a number of subsidiaries of which 'From the Rib' is one as far as I am aware. per 7 Digital (here and Amazon, Blondie Rockwell is the name of Eve's label, distributed through (RED) From the Rib. iTunes is necessarily always correct as proven at Talk: Trouble (Leona Lewis song). — Lil_℧niquℇ №1 22:45, 5 April 2013 (UTC)

April 2013

Hello. Regarding the recent revert you made to Reincarnated (album): you may already know about them, but you might find Misplaced Pages:Template messages/User talk namespace useful. After a revert, these can be placed on the user's talk page to let them know you considered their edit inappropriate, and also direct new users towards the sandbox. They can also be used to give a stern warning to a vandal when they've been previously warned. Thank you. Gold Standard 02:51, 9 April 2013 (UTC)

Commercial Performance

I have noticed that you constantly update these sections with the weekly sales figures, and I thank you as I have been the one to do it in the past and it can get pretty strenuous sometimes as I used to be the one that did that in the past. However I do not know if you agree with me, but I have been noticing with just having the first weeks sales and then "Since April 9 the album has sold...." in the section it makes it look awkward and small compared to the critical response section. I think from now on we should somewhat track the sales/chart positions in the section for I would say the first five weeks after release, like I partly did at I Am Not a Human Being II and The Nacirema Dream. Then after those five weeks, then have the tally of "Since April 9 the album has sold....". Every new week the total should then be removed from the end of the previous sentence. If you understand. This should make the article and section look better, also with HipHopDX updating us every week it should not be too hard. STATic message me! 22:00, 10 April 2013 (UTC)

I meant it should be more like this . Listing how many copies it sells each week for the first five weeks and then after that listing how many copies its sold to date. Do you understand what I mean now? STATic message me! 15:20, 17 April 2013 (UTC)

April 2013

Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Misplaced Pages, as you did to God Forgives, I Don't, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear constructive and has been reverted. Please make use of the sandbox if you'd like to experiment with test edits. Thank you.

Orphaned non-free media (File:Finally Rich Deluxe.JPG)

Thanks for uploading File:Finally Rich Deluxe.JPG. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Misplaced Pages under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Misplaced Pages. If the media 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 will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Misplaced Pages (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. 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 all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Hazard-Bot (talk) 04:11, 18 April 2013 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of File:3ca7864b5098a1fdc2664ad805828722.jpg

A tag has been placed on File:3ca7864b5098a1fdc2664ad805828722.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Misplaced Pages. This has been done under section F1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image is an unused redundant copy (all pixels the same or scaled down) of an image in the same file format, which is on Misplaced Pages (not on Commons), and all inward links have been updated.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Misplaced Pages's policies and guidelines.

Possible copyright violation

Hi there, great work on the Bob's Burgers episode articles like "God Rest Ye Merry Gentle-Mannequins" and "The Unbearable Like-Likeness of Gene", but in the future could you please take the time to write up fully plot summaries in your own words? The summaries on websites like TV Guide are almost certainly copyrighted, and as such copying these verbatim, as you've done, is a violation of the copyright policy. Thanks and happy editing!

RE: April 2013

MOS:ALBUM#Track_listing: "A track listing should generally be formatted as a numbered list ... In more complicated situations, a table or the {{Track listing}} template may be a better choice." Dan56 (talk) 00:28, 27 April 2013 (UTC)

I said this before while reverting you the first time. Dan56 (talk) 00:31, 27 April 2013 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Rittz

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Rittz requesting that it be speedily deleted from Misplaced Pages. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a band or musician, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

Your image changes

It would help if you used edit summaries so other editors know why you made your edits. You should read WP:BRD, because you like to make BOLD changes without edit summaries, then when reverted by another editor using an edit summary, you keep reverting back, most of the time still without any edit summary or even talk page discussion. Once you have been reverted, you should start a discussion somewhere, preferably on the article or image talk page, so a consensus could be reached instead of starting an edit war.

1) Asleep in the Bread Aisle - PNG is a preferred file format over JPG and should be used. You should have tagged the original file for needing to be reduced instead of creating a new JPG file that also was too big and needed to be reduced.

2) Certified, The Hunger for Moore - You never once explained why you replaced these files that were already at the correct size to pass WP:NFCC.

3) Scooby-Doo - This image was not too small.

4) Disney images except for Peter Pan - These images were not too small. The first versions are from October 12, 2007 and listed as "fair use reduce", so they were already at an acceptable size.

5) Peter Pan image - This image is different than the above because it is from a later date, but is the exact same size as the others.

Images have to be orphaned for seven continuous days to be deleted. Once the tag has been removed, you cannot simply revert because the process would have to start over again. You are clearing trying to game the system as can been seen in your edits to File:David Banner - Certified.jpg. You re-orphaned the image on April 25 after three days of it being back in the article, so you should have tagged it for that date. You clearly tried to speed up the deletion today by changing the date to the 17, then to the original 20 and then eventually to the 18, . These are very disingenuous edits that are not acting in good faith.

In summary, I hope that you discuss these edits here instead of reverting back to your preferred versions. I also hope that you can take some notes from what I wrote and apply it to your future edits. Aspects (talk) 23:52, 28 April 2013 (UTC)

I am sad, but not surprised, that you totally ignored my advice. I wanted you to take the time and address the concerns I brought up here, but instead you left one note and reverted back again. Also you did the edits without edit summaries and not restarting the orphaned image time frame, so it seems like you did not even read what I left because you ignored it all. I still would appreciate your opinions on each of the images and the issues that I brought up about them. I am going to find an admin to give a third opinion since you do not want to discuss these issues. Aspects (talk) 02:02, 29 April 2013 (UTC)

In the future, if someone starts a discussion on your talk page, you should contain all of that discussion on your talk page instead of trying to figure out the conversation by going back and forth between talk pages. Please keep all further discussion here as I have your talk page watchlisted and I can see when you add a comment. I have asked the admin User:Masem for their third opinion to help us with this discussion and I am not going to make any further edits to these articles/images until a consensus is reached. In response to your last message on my talk page, I did already ask/talk about the articles/images in each edit summary and in the start of this discussion. Aspects (talk) 02:12, 29 April 2013 (UTC)

Aspects asked me to comment here. We have a non-free content policy that requires minimal sizes, and it does appear your uploads are violating these. If you continue to upload larger-res versions of existing non-free images that have already accceptable sizes, you will likely be reported to WP:ANI and be blocked for your actions. --MASEM (t) 02:12, 29 April 2013 (UTC)

I was just uploading images that fit the infobox, i'm not trying to vandalize or nothing like that i'm just trying to help, the bot will re size the images to meet standards tonight so i hope there won't be any more problems. I will never do this again. Koala15 (talk) 02:18, 29 April 2013 (UTC)

Since the Disney images have been reduced, I am fine with their size. The Scooby-Doo image seems to be about the same size as the Disney images, so I am now fine with that. The Asleep in the Bread Aisle original file has been deleted, but since you provided a reason for the change, even if I could not see this border, I was fine with the original file being deleted.

Now my only concerns are with the other two images. Both the original Certified image and the original Hunger for More were already at the ideal 300 width per Template:Infobox album. I would like to know what were your specific problems with these two images. Aspects (talk) 06:38, 30 April 2013 (UTC)

There not even using The Hunger for More cover i uploaded anymore, and the reason i uploaded the Certified image was because it was a version without white lines on it. Koala15 (talk) 14:12, 30 April 2013 (UTC)

Koala15, you have my full appreciation and solidarity. I wish you success against this destroyer (Aspects), who hates images which do not conform to his rules, and who enjoys wasting a staggering amount of time vandalizing or otherwise pestering other editors. He enjoys damaging other editors' graphic contributions thus: he removes references in articles to their uploaded images, and then blames those same images for being "orphans", with the outcome that they get finally deleted. He freely admits his limitations, namely: "I have never uploaded an image and find that part of Misplaced Pages confusing, so I leave that to people who have more experience in that area.", but nevertheless has no shame meddling with images obtained and uploaded by true contributors who have devoted their time, dedication and effort. Also, he freely stuffs other editors' talk page with his sermons, his BS, and his opinions (as he has done in your case), yet has the nerve to forbid other editors from writing anything in his Talk Page (as if he owned it). What still amazes me is that they still call him "a contributor", and even grant him prizes such as "barnstars" & other stuff, despite all the damage he has done and keeps doing. --AVM (talk) 23:31, 30 April 2013 (UTC)

That is a spot on observation, i completely agree with you. Koala15 (talk) 23:39, 30 April 2013 (UTC)

In response to your message three above this message, where are the white lines you are talking about? Aspects (talk) 19:06, 5 May 2013 (UTC)

They are white lines from the original editor saving the image the wrong way, by cutting and pasting it. Koala15 (talk) 20:04, 5 May 2013 (UTC)

List of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (2012 TV series) episodes

Okay, I'll bite. How is adding a "TBA" episode placeholder, for a show that has a 3 season order, considered "original research"? Cyphoidbomb (talk) 16:04, 1 May 2013 (UTC)

"There is no need to add an episode with "TBA" as the title, your just assuming an episode will air that day. That kind of research does not belong on Misplaced Pages"

If you don't mind I'd prefer to continue the discussion here for convenience. Whether TBA belongs in the episode list is a matter of personal preference. I don't have an opinion one way or the other. But reverting another editor's contribution, then citing an imaginary rule about how "episode title (needs) to be here" seems like a matter of personal preference as well. TBA is a placeholder and doesn't impart any information, any more than "--" would. So I think you're stretching the interpretation of "original reasearch". And there is neither a guideline for, nor a prohibition of TBAs at WP:MOS:TV. That said, another editor suggested that another way to go is to create empty fields and comment them out. This way the fields can be used as needed, won't appear on the page, and there are no offensive TBAs. That is what I've done on the page. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 19:17, 1 May 2013 (UTC)

It is not an "imaginary rule" i've seen people use that rule on various episode list pages. Anyway your most recent edit of adding blank episode fields makes much more sense. Koala15 (talk) 19:28, 1 May 2013 (UTC)

Well, I got totally wrong about the latest poster being the final poster (sorry about that)! But I can say that it is a new poster, Moviefone says it right here. It also debuted later than the other poster and has the rating.----Plea$ant 1623 ✉ 06:30, 9 May 2013 (UTC)
