User talk:Thanos6
From June 16, 2008, 12:24 EST, any discussion started on MY page will be replied to on YOURS. You then reply on mine. Conversational ping-pong, that's what I prefer.
Welcome
[edit]Hello Thanos6 and welcome to Wikipedia!
Here are some tips to help you get started:
- Try the Tutorial, and feel free to experiment in the test area.
- If you need help, post a question at the Help Desk
- Eventually, you might want to read the Manual of Style and Policies and Guidelines.
- Remember Wikipedia:Neutral point of view
- You can put pages that you edit on your "watchlist" to keep track of them easier, and see most recent edits to them.
- Explore, be bold in editing pages, and, most importantly, have fun!
Good luck!
P.S. One last helpful hint. To sign your posts like I did above (on talk pages, for example) use the '~' symbol. To insert just your name, type ~~~ (3 tildes), or, to insert your name and timestamp, use ~~~~ (4 tildes).
Warning users
[edit]You might warn to warn users such as User:68.12.20.87 with templates such as {{test1}}, {{test2}} to {{test4}} before intiating an RFC. Also, RFC tends to be reserved for user conflicts, simple vandalism can be listed over at WP:VIP once the user has been warned enough times (usually at least 2 or 3, test4 is used as a last warning).

Vandalism
[edit]Hi Thanos6, I just wanted to let you know I reverted the last few edits to your talk page as it was vandalism. I'm going to warn the users who did it too. — Moe ε 01:35, 21 January 2006 (UTC)
Quasar Entry Edit
[edit]Hi, Thanos6. I saw you added a bit to Quasar's Powers & Abilities. I had some questions about them, so maybe if you have a chance you can check out the Quasar talk page. Thanks!
Semi-automated template substitution

Request for edit summary
[edit]Hi. I am a bot, and I am writing to you with a request. I would like to ask you, if possible, to use edit summaries a bit more often when you contribute. The reason an edit summary is important is because it allows your fellow contributors to understand what you changed; you can think of it as the "Subject:" line in an email. For your information, your current edit summary usage is 15% for major edits and 31% for minor edits. (Based on the last 150 major and 150 minor edits in the article namespace.)
This is just a suggestion, and I hope that I did not appear impolite. You do not need to reply to this message, but if you would like to give me feedback, you can do so at the feedback page. Thank you, and happy edits, Mathbot 07:00, 2 March 2006 (UTC)
If a page is a duplicate of another page, or covers the same content but in a completely inferior way, there is no need to place it on AFD. You can just make a redirect to the other page instead. To do this, edit the article, remove all the text, and add #REDIRECT [[Other Article Name]]. Thanks! Stifle (talk) 18:51, 12 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit]I've added your criticism back into the writer profile section.--CyberGhostface 19:51, 25 October 2006 (UTC)
Jason
[edit]Ken was a stunt choredinator, not Jason. If he did any of them it was as a stunt double (which is hard to do since Kane Hodder is already a stunt man). Since Kane played "Jason", his stunt double doesn't count as a "portrayal" even if it was Ken (which you would need a source to prove that anyway, since Kane is already a stunt man and did his stunts). It isn't like the earlier movies where you had "unmasked" and "masked", because they were technically doing the same job, playing the character of Jason, not performing a stunt that the other actors couldn't do. Bignole 15:18, 26 October 2006 (UTC)
- Again, as I said, that doesn't make Ken the portrayer of Jason (especially in only 2 shots) when it's meant as a "stunt double". He wasn't acting, he was doing a stunt (granted "acting" is a loose term with this character). Stunt doubles do not count as "portrayers", otherwise Robert England wouldn't be the only person to portray Freddy Krueger. Kane Hodder portrayed Jason in Part 8, while Ken stood in as a stunt double for a couple scenes because of "time restraints". That doesn't classify as an actual portrayal.

- Sorry he got you involved with this. For the record, this person basically added his own fictional original research into the articles, so he got mad when I removed them. "Anyone" in this case just basically refers to him.--CyberGhostface 21:15, 28 October 2006 (UTC)
- The user at the end of the first message is actually Special:Contributions/172.134.129.246, who was trying to conceal his identity under the user JimmyMack, which has no contributions recorded at time of writing. Also, Wikipedia signatures usually have two dashes and not one, for your info. --Bruin_rrss23 (talk) 07:32, 29 October 2006 (UTC)
Crossbones
[edit]Thanks for editing "criminal scientist" out of the Crossbones article. I think I must have inadvertently left that there after accidentally pasting some text from the Superia article. Otherwise, I must have been on acid. --Halloween jack 04:55, 14 November 2006 (UTC)
NegaDuck
[edit]You added an edit saying the writers had been planning to square the two origin stories in an episode called "Opposites Attack"--do you have a source for that? I found a few mentions of this on the internet but people don't say where they got the information, I'm wondering if it could just be a rumor. Hypnosifl 21:05, 15 December 2006 (UTC)

Your edits to William Schoell
[edit]Thank you for contributing to Wikipedia, Thanos6! However, your edit here was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove spam from Wikipedia. If you were trying to insert a good link, please accept my creator's apologies, but please note that the link you added in is on my spam blacklist and should not be included in Wikipedia. Please read Wikipedia's external links policy for more information. If the link was to an Imageshack or Photobucket image, please read Wikipedia's image tutorial on how to use a more appropriate method to insert the image into an article. If your link was genuine spam, please note that inserting spam into Wikipedia is against policy. For more information about me, see my FAQ page. Thanks! Shadowbot 18:17, 18 January 2007 (UTC)

re Sherlock Holmes
[edit]I don't have time at the moment to revert some of your changes at Sherlock Holmes, but I recommend that you consult WP:MOS#Quotation marks with regard to the use of quotation marks with other punctuation. Deor 02:03, 27 April 2007 (UTC)
- No problem. It's not the way I was taught to do things, either, but it's a style widely used in Britain and Commonwealth coutries (although they use single rather than double quotation marks). Deor 16:34, 27 April 2007 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (Image:Dvd teentr ep274 scrn35.jpg)
[edit]Thanks for uploading Image:Dvd teentr ep274 scrn35.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. 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 that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (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 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" 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. BetacommandBot 08:38, 18 August 2007 (UTC)
Fun Destroyers
[edit]Could you please sop being so childish? Comments like "There's no such thing as cruft, but don't bother adding them, the Fun Destroyers will just remove them anyway" are not benifiting in any way to the article. 1.Cruft DOES EXIST, that it doesnt is simply a ingnorant point of view. 2. Calling benificial Wikipedians "Fun Destroyers" is rude,immature and childish. The people you call this are merely following the rules, and Wikipedia encourages that. Please stop. Atomic Religione 16:52, 21 August 2007 (UTC)
Justdont bring it to the talk pages, you are simply ASKING for a fight. Leave your opinions on your user page. Rules are meant to be followed, and changing them is sometime nessecary, but the way you are going about it will get you no where. Atomic Religione 17:30, 22 August 2007 (UTC)

Wikimania in Atlanta!
[edit]Hi! I noticed your involvement on U.S. South-related articles, categories and WikiProjects, and I wanted to let you know about a bid we're formulating to get next year's Wikimania held in Atlanta! If you would like to help, be sure to sign your name to the "In Atlanta" section of the Southeast team portion of the bid if you're in town, or to the "Outside Atlanta" section if you still want to help but don't live in the city or the suburbs. If you would like to contribute more, please write on my talk page, the talk page of the bid, or join us at the #wikimania-atlanta IRC chat on freenode.org. Have a great day!
P.S. While this is a template for maximum efficiency, I would appreciate a note on my talk page so I know you got the message, and what you think. This is time-sensitive, so your urgent cooperation is appreciated. :) Mike H. I did "That's hot" first! 09:45, 31 August 2007 (UTC)

Marvel Database Project
[edit]"Even on official policy pages they mention that you should throw up a link to an external fanwiki."
I've never seen that. I've only seen the policy that I provided a link to.
If you want to call an admin, that's completely within your right to do so. I'm not sure calling the Notability guidelines "Godawful" is particularly helpful in that regard. The usual first steps are to do a Request for Comment and Mediation. You want to that route, I'm perfectly agreeable. --Tenebrae 03:19, 1 September 2007 (UTC)
- No, that's actually just a list of some places editors can go to in order to find primary and secondary sources — nothing there says to use them as links. In fact, the specific policy at Wikipedia:Reliable sources/Examples says, "Wikis, including Wikipedia and other wikis sponsored by the Wikimedia Foundation are not regarded as reliable sources. However, wikis are excellent places to locate primary and secondary sources."
- As for whether a featured article or a Good Article lists wikis, that's irrelevant — we're not supposed to use examples of non-policy things in other articles to support a non-policy thing in an article in question. As well, articles continue to be edited even after reaching Good Article status, and sometimes non-policy edits and even vandalism can remain undetected for weeks or months. Positions need to be defensible on their own merits.
- Please see the lengthy discussion involving other editors and an admin, Steve Block, at User talk:JamieHari.
- I'm not sure why you're so adamant about including something against policy, particularly when the link, which other editors have removed as linkspam, was spread through WPC by that site's own creator in a self-promotional fashion to drive traffic to it. --Tenebrae 04:11, 1 September 2007 (UTC)
- Please don't use uncivil language on my talk page. Thanks. --Tenebrae 04:24, 1 September 2007 (UTC)
Fair use disputed for Image:Legion Of Doom (Justice).jpg
[edit]Thanks for uploading Image:Legion Of Doom (Justice).jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our Criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 18:30, 13 September 2007 (UTC)

The Fun Destroyers
[edit]The Fun Destroyers are the rot that is slowly eating away at Wikipedia. If something doesn't satisfy their small-minded, tunnelvision version of "notability," then like mindless, shrieking harpies, they fall upon it with cries of "cruft" and "trivia" and "non-notable" and get it deleted, sucking much enjoyment out of Wikipedia for everyone else. Well, no more, I say. We must stand up to the Fun Destroyers and keep this site worth coming to!
- I can see both sides of this argument. On the one hand I side with you, thinking that Wikipedia is created by the users and should reflect what the users are interested in. But there's another part of me that agrees with the Fun Destroyers, that achieving five minutes (not even fifteen) of notoriety for appearing in the funny YouTube video du jour doesn't necessarily mean that you deserve an encyclopedia article devoted to you. I think it has to be case-by-case. -- PurpleChez (talk) 17:23, 16 November 2007 (UTC)
- PS...I didn't mean to intrude upon your user page, but it seems as if you don't have a discussion page working...or maybe it's my browser (which has happened).... -- PurpleChez (talk) 17:40, 16 November 2007 (UTC)
Santa Claus
[edit]I enjoyed your addition to "my" Santa Claus article, pointing out that, by the end of the film, Santa still hasn't left Mexico City. One of the many, many things that I've always thought was so amusing about that movie was that its Santa Claus is perhaps the slowest Saint Nick ever. Some Santa stories talk about the magic involved in Santa being able to deliver all those presents in one night...Mexican Santa Claus would be hard-pressed to deliver presents to a single trailer park in one night. I also enjoy the fact that Lupita's dad goes job hunting in the pre-dawn hours of Christmas morning, that it's snowing inside Santa's extraterrestrial sweat shop, and that Pitch plans to (1) finish off Santa forever and (2) make him angry. No, no, Lupita! You mustn't steal! You'll be sorry! -- PurpleChez (talk) 17:18, 16 November 2007 (UTC)

The Centrality
[edit]A proposed deletion template has been added to the article The Centrality, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}}
notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. If you agree with the deletion of the article, and you are the only person who has made substantial edits to the page, please add {{db-author}}

Jesse Walsh
[edit]I'm curious as to what you are expecting to find for the character, because he's fairly non-notable in the series itself. The film was criticized for having homosexual undertones, but anything that is remarked about the character himself can easily be said on the film page (if it isn't already). BIGNOLE (Contact me) 01:09, 25 January 2008 (UTC)
- But being mentioned in spin-off books isn't considered "significant coverage in third party sources". It's just more plot sources. I think Nightmare needs a "List of characters in A Nightmare on Elm Street page, similar to List of characters in Friday the 13th--as just about everyone from the films have almost no real notability, but have appeared in various mediums of the series (thus, mentioning a comic book that isn't directly about the film the character started in might not be relevant on the film page, but is relevant on a list of characters page). BIGNOLE (Contact me) 01:17, 25 January 2008 (UTC)
- WP:NOTE--"A topic is presumed to be notable if it has received significant coverage in reliable secondary sources that are independent of the subject." That means, being mentioned in a comic books does not make one notable enough for an entire article devoted to it on Wikipedia. That also means that just because you reject the notability guideline that you don't have to follow it. It may be a guideline, but unless you can show that Jesse Walsh is an exception to the rule then WP:IAR doesn't apply. Also, making the bare minimum requirements of notability doesn't mean the topic deserves an article either, because if there isn't enough real world content to support the page it may just be better served on a page that covers are larger scope of the subject. So, in your search of those spin-offs you find secondary sources "independent of the subject". That means, him being mentioned in a book about A Nightmare on Elm Street wouldn't constitute "independent of the subject". You asked for "a couple of days" (which is 2), and you can have 3 days to find your sources before I simply AfD or put a merge proposal up on the article (probably the latter). BIGNOLE (Contact me) 02:05, 25 January 2008 (UTC)
- Well, until the notability guideline is done away with, you still have to follow it. If you choose to ignore it simply because you disagree with it, that's your perogative. No one can make you do anything you don't choose to do, that's why life is so wonderful. ;) BIGNOLE (Contact me) 18:21, 25 January 2008 (UTC)

Jason
[edit]I'm not aware of him every speaking in Jason Goes to Hell, what scene are you refering to? BIGNOLE (Contact me) 06:26, 3 February 2008 (UTC)
- That wasn't Jason though...it was his spirit in the body, but not him physically talking through his own body. That is what the statement is about. On a side note, that whole segment of that film seemed out of place with the rest of it. Why did he not speak in any other body for the entire film, yet when he jumped into the officer's body he all of a sudden begins talking perfectly. That was just weird.

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Dvd teentr ep274 scrn35.jpg
[edit]Thanks for uploading Image:Dvd teentr ep274 scrn35.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot (talk) 20:07, 13 February 2008 (UTC)
Orphaned non-free media (Image:Dvd teentr ep274 scrn35.jpg)
[edit]Thanks for uploading Image:Dvd teentr ep274 scrn35.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. 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 that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (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 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" 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. BetacommandBot (talk) 19:46, 17 February 2008 (UTC)

Image copyright problem with Image:Dinky Map.jpg
[edit]Thanks for uploading Image:Dinky Map.jpg. You've indicated that the image is being used under a claim of fair use, but you have not provided an adequate explanation for why it meets Wikipedia's requirements for such images. In particular, for each page the image is used on, the image must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Can you please check
- That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's description page for each article the image is used in.
- That every article it is used on is linked to from its description page.

Hi Thanos6,
I noticed you reverted my edit to the article linked above, and I was wondering if you wouldn't mind explaining why. Although the AfD clearly didn't come to the conclusion that I thought it would, a number of commentators agreed that the "cruft"--that is, the section I deleted--needed to go. Since our job as an encyclopedia is to provide an overview of the subject rather than an indiscriminate collection of information, I was hoping that you could explain (either here or on the article talk page) why you feel the inclusion of this section is vital to the article. Thanks! --jonny-mt 02:42, 16 June 2008 (UTC)
- Regarding your comment on my page, well, 1) I don't believe there is such a thing as cruft, and 2) if there is, this isn't it. I have absolutely no interest in the USoUD, and have no desire to listen to the song or watch the video, but if I'm ever curious as to what icons of pop culture made it in, and how they were removed, I want that list there. I don't see anything wrong with a list like that. Thanos6 (talk) 04:22, 16 June 2008 (UTC)
- Well, the question you have to ask is not so much why it shouldn't be removed but why it should be included. For example, we could write extensively about the specific painting techniques used by Michelangelo, but such a long discussion of his brushstrokes would be out of place in his general biography. In this case, we also have to look at the question of undue weight--that it, does the inclusion of this extensive list place an undue focus on the specific content of the video rather than its overall notability as web-based content. I'm of the strong opinion that it does, which means that the inclusion of this list violates Wikipedia's policy on neutral point of view.
- In addition, the inclusion of this content serves as a guide to the video, which is contrary to Wikipedia's nature as an encyclopedia. And finally, although there was never a formal discussion on its removal, the deletion discussion linked above carried with it a strong suggestion that the excess content in the article be removed, which you can argue constitutes a level of consensus on the matter. --jonny-mt 05:15, 16 June 2008 (UTC)
- Just as we have had AFDs before, this matter has been discussed extensively at the article and that is the proper place to continue this discussion. I am reverting the deletion of this material as it has long been part of the article and is quite informative. Colonel Warden (talk) 07:09, 21 June 2008 (UTC)

Monkey Island merges
[edit]Hi there, I had the impression the changes would not be controversial, but I was clearly wrong, sorry.
I've tried to explain my decisions a little bit on Talk:Monkey Island (fictional world), and I personally think the page gives a much more coherent view of Monkey Island's fiction as a whole, where it was previously pretty fragmented. But I'm repeating myself :). If you choose to revert, give us a shout and I will help to undo some of the link changes, updates to fair use rationale, etc -- Playclever (talk) 02:58, 7 July 2008 (UTC)
- Just to note, the above page was moved to Talk:World of Monkey Island. Paul Erik (talk)(contribs) 05:00, 29 September 2008 (UTC)

Personal attacks on your user page
[edit]To make it pretty simple, your entire user page is a giant personal attack, and although I'm inclined to delete it per CSD G10, I will give you the opportunity to clear your user page of all personal attacks. You are welcome to your views on notability, but disparaging other editors is not acceptable in any circumstances. — sephiroth bcr (converse) 07:47, 7 October 2008 (UTC)
- You find that your views are better expressed when they do not appear vitriolic or condescending. Calling administrators and editors who believe strongly in the notability guideline "fun-destroyers" and comparing them to the people who burned the Library of Alexandria is to be absolutely frank, disgusting and immature. Again, you are entitled to your views on notability. You can place on your user page that you don't agree with the notability policy, and you appear to be one of the editors that believes that verifiability is all that is needed. That is fine, although you should express it in a civil manner. Your personal attacks on administrators (this is very mature) and other editors all needs to be removed. — sephiroth bcr (converse) 22:28, 7 October 2008 (UTC)
- Much better. I appreciate your cooperation in this manner. Regards, — sephiroth bcr (converse) 03:37, 8 October 2008 (UTC)

Disputed non-free use rationale for File:Eco-Villains.JPG
[edit]Thank you for uploading File:Eco-Villains.JPG. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this file on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the file description page and adding or clarifying the reason why the file qualifies under this policy. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your file is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for files used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.
If it is determined that the file does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you. SchuminWeb (Talk) 18:30, 28 November 2010 (UTC)
