Johnny Depp page

The reason why I put down the category "American tenors" is because of his singing in Sweeney Todd. I know that is a lame source, but I'm just letting you know why I put that down. Tribal44 (talk) 02:21, 29 August 2008 (UTC)Tribal44

Oops, I made the same mistake on the Amy Winehouse page. I'm not good on relible sources, lol. Tribal44 (talk) 14:47, 5 September 2008 (UTC)Tribal44

Thanks for sending the "Guide to referencing" page. I just added another source/reference on the Annie Lennox page. Was the source good enough? Lol. Tribal44 (talk) 17:40, 7 September 2008 (UTC)Tribal44

Ok, I've added two sources so far today. Hope I did good this time around, lol. Tribal44 (talk) 18:02, 8 September 2008 (UTC)Tribal44

In use

Hi, I just spent a fair amount of time assessing from the actress list, and then I realized there could easily have been edit conflicts. I'm working on the actor list for change, so I'll put an in use tag on it. Maybe we should do this, as we seem often to be online at the same time. Cheers Rossrs (talk) 15:15, 30 August 2008 (UTC)

No, not at all. There has been no problem. I intended to only spend a few minutes, and then I became absorbed and lost track of time. I don't plan on staying around for much longer either. See ya Rossrs (talk) 15:27, 30 August 2008 (UTC)

oh my god, that's a lot to deal with. I remember the Johnnie Ray thing, but I didn't realize it spilled over into so many other areas, or that it was still going on. As for finding your name and email address, that's crossing the line. How does someone even know how to go about that? I would imagine it would take some time and effort, not to mention a considerable degree of premeditation, and that's disturbing. Rossrs (talk) 08:11, 31 August 2008 (UTC)

That would give me the creeps too. It's bizarre isn't it? However she went about checking, it's just wrong that she even thought about doing it. Obviously there are two posts deleted from IMDb, so I don't know exactly what "mstyn" was replying to, but I must say "mstyn" sounds like a complete moron. I'm assuming the "what a winner" comment is about you? So she's telling her children not to trust Misplaced Pages, but she's taking someone's word at face value on an IMDb talk page. Is that clever?

On a more serious note, the name "Cindytrells" is very like a name I've seen on Misplaced Pages at Anne Frank and Talk:Anne Frank (example). I mention this only because the name is not one you listed on your sock puppet page, and her recent edits have been on the Marilyn Monroe films Something's Got to Give and The Misfits, and Marilyn comes up in the sock puppet edit histories. Maybe it's no more than a coincidence, as I can't see any other connections in article subjects, and I hope I'm not being unfair. Rossrs (talk) 13:44, 31 August 2008 (UTC)

Follow-up

Hi, I posted a follow-up on Misplaced Pages talk:WikiProject Actors and Filmmakers#Extlinks to Broadwayworld website () If you could, please respond. Thanks. Broadwayworld2 (talk) 17:51, 31 August 2008 (UTC)

Adminship

Hi, I asked you about a month ago whether you might be interested in becoming an administrator and you said you'd give it some thought. Sorry I've been mostly away since then - I was wondering whether you'd come to a decision? WJBscribe (talk) 01:18, 1 September 2008 (UTC)

I respect your decision and I don't wish to pressure you. The offer remains open, do get in touch should you change your mind the future. WJBscribe (talk) 01:55, 3 September 2008 (UTC)

WikiProject Films roll call and coordinator elections

It's that time of year again – we're wiping everyone's name off of the active members list and doing a project roll call. Your username is listed on the WikiProject Films participants list, but we are unsure as to which editors are still active on the project. If you still consider yourself an active WP:FILM editor, please add your name back to the Active Members list. You can also add your name to any of our many task forces!

More crazies

I should stop it! How dare I removed someone's interpretation of the bible! Speaking of POV, I see your friend is back and using more IPs. I guess the lithium is running low. Pinkadelica (talk) 08:32, 1 September 2008 (UTC)

I saw it, but you may have sent it to me. I noticed someone else made a suit and tie comment. Can't remember where, but I laughed. Did you do some recruiting? Pinkadelica (talk) 08:40, 1 September 2008 (UTC)

Do I request like I would regular page? Pinkadelica (talk) 22:17, 1 September 2008 (UTC)

Yeah, I have Twinkle. I use Huggle to patrol. It's fast! Those IPs hate it...obviously. Thanks for the tip. Watch me get denied. lol Pinkadelica (talk) 22:27, 1 September 2008 (UTC)

It is nominated for deletion. The guy who created it kept removing the tag. Don't tell me he created more. Pinkadelica (talk) 07:48, 4 September 2008 (UTC)

I'm not pissed. lol Was I snippy or something? I didn't originally tag the article, I just saw the guy removing it without adding the {{hangon}} thingy. I always thought that even if someone removes the tag, an admin can still delete it if it wasn't notable. Pinkadelica (talk) 08:15, 4 September 2008 (UTC)

Well, disregard my last comment then. Pinkadelica (talk) 08:16, 4 September 2008 (UTC)

I agree. It sounds like a Doodlebug rant, only religious. Pinkadelica (talk) 08:23, 4 September 2008 (UTC)

Anthony Burgess

Kudos for your efforts to fix up Anthony Burgess. :-) -- 201.17.36.246 (talk) 20:44, 4 September 2008 (UTC)

I second that. I've only had time for a very quick look at the article, and it has multiple issues to be dealt with. I'll have a closer look at it when I have a little free time. I'm unexpectedly (and unwillingly!) working this weekend, but I will find some time in the next couple of days. Rossrs (talk) 14:21, 5 September 2008 (UTC)

No worries. It was worse than I expected, but what shocked me was the attitude. Ignorance really is bliss! Let's see if they care enough about the article to sign up and work on it. I wouldn't recommend holding your breath waiting for that to happen.  ;-) Rossrs (talk) 12:29, 7 September 2008 (UTC)

TimothyMok

I guess so - perhaps a checkuser first to 100% establish the editors are one and the same? The Rambling Man (talk) 10:18, 5 September 2008 (UTC)

Re: Note

Thanks for the heads-up... I would not have noticed otherwise. Darth Panda (talk) 15:42, 7 September 2008 (UTC)

MTV VMAs

I didn't watch it but someone seems to think he was being harsh. Anyone that makes fun of the Jonas muppets is ok with me. Pinkadelica (talk) 04:09, 8 September 2008 (UTC)

Featuring .....GENE WILDER!

I feel pumped this week, wanna try and make Gene Wilder a Featured article with me?--Yamanbaiia 13:58, 8 September 2008 (UTC)

Your note

I responded on my talk page. I will drop you a line, I need a bit of help to work up a checkuser case. Ta. LaVidaLoca (talk) 01:02, 10 September 2008 (UTC)
