Heya

Hi Brian :) We actually talked when you first arrived at WP, so I think we never actually met at LGB. But still it's cool that people bump into eachother in strange places :) Cheers, jaco♫plane 13:47, 19 September 2006 (UTC)

September Esperanza Newsletter

Program Feature: Barnstar Brigade Here in Wikipedia there are hundreds of wikipedians whose work and efforts go unappreciated. One occasionally comes across editors who have thousands of good edits, but because they may not get around as much as others, their contributions and hard work often go unnoticed. As Esperanzians we can help to make people feel appreciated, be it by some kind words or the awarding of a Barnstar. This is where the Barnstar Brigade comes in. The object of this program is to seek out the people which deserve a Barnstar, and help them feel appreciated. With your help, we can recognize more dedicated editors! What's New? September elections are upon us! Anyone wishing to be a part of the Advisory Council may list themselves as a candidate from 18 September until 24 September, with the voting taking place from 25 September to 30 September. Those who wish to help with the election staff should also list themselves! Appreciation Week, a program currently in development, now has its own subpage! Share your good ideas on how to make it awesome there! The Esperanza front page has been redesigned! Many thanks to all who worked hard on it. Many thanks to MiszaBot, courtesy of Misza13, for delivering the newsletter.

The last AC meeting (full log) The proposals page has been updated, with some proposals being archived. Since the program in development Appretiaion week is getting lots of good ideas, it now has its own subpage. The September 2006 Council elections will open for nominations on 18 September 2006. The voting will run from 25 September 2006 until 30 September 2006. If you wish to be a candidate or a member of the elections staff, please list yourself! The new Esperanza front page design has but put up - many thanks to all who worked on it! TangoTango has written a script for a bot that will list new members of Esperanza, which will help those who welcome new Esperanzains greatly! Signed...

Although having the newsletter appear on everyone's userpage is desired, this may not be ideal for everyone. If, in the future, you wish to receive a link to the newsletter, rather than the newsletter itself, you may add yourself to Wikipedia:Esperanza/Newsletter/Opt Out List.

Jake.

I would be delighted to have you help, but short of having you go through the references and make sure the commas and full stops are harmonised, I cannot think of anything. I will be sure to let to know if I do need help. Thankyou for your offer. Dev920 15:22, 21 September 2006 (UTC)

Leo DiCaprio

I noticed you removed this source about him being raised Catholic - and that was definitely a good idea. Adherents.com is only reliable when it cites its sources. Those large lists of "Catholics" they have? They were copied word for word from Wikipedia's lists of Catholics (same for their Jewish, etc. list). In fact, a large majority of sources that aren't first-hand (first hand being interviews and the like) get their info directly from Wikipedia, which is exactly why we can't use them. :-) We've become our own worst enemy in that regard.

Philly meetup

Hi, Brian1979! There will be a Wikipedia Meetup in Philadelphia on 4 November. If you're interested in coming, RSVP by editing Wikipedia:Meetup/Philadelphia 2 to reflect the likelihood of your being able to attend. If you have any questions, feel free to ask me on my talk page. Hopefully, we'll all see you (and each other) on the 4th! --CComMack (t•c) 17:14, 6 October 2006 (UTC)

WikiProject Disambiguation Talk Request

This is a form message being sent to all WikiProject Disambiguation participants. I recently left a proposed banner idea on the WikiProject Disambiguation talk page and I would appreciate any input you could provide. Before it can be approved or denied, I would prefer a lot of feedback from multiple participants in the project. So if you have the time please join in the discussion to help improve the WikiProject. Keep up the good work in link repair and thanks for your time. Nehrams2020 22:39, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

November Esperanza Newsletter

Program Feature: Admin Coaching (needs coaches!) Admin Coaching needs coaches!!! If you are an administrator, or even a generally experienced user, do consider signing up to be a coach. Admin Coaching, now being coordinated by HighwayCello, is a program for people who want help learning some of the more subtle aspects of Wikipedia policy and culture. People are matched with experienced users who are willing to offer coaching. The program is designed for people who have figured out the basics of editing articles; they're not newcomers any more, but they might want some help in learning new roles. In this way, Esperanza would help keep hope alive for Wikipedia because we would always be grooming the next generation of admins. What's New? The Tutorial Drive is a new Esperanza program! In an effort to make complicated processes on Wikipedia easier for everyone, Esperanza working to create and compile a list of tutorials about processes here on Wikipedia. Consider writing one! A discussion on how Esperanza relates to the encyclopedia has been started; please add your thoughts. Many thanks to MiszaBot, courtesy of Misza13, for delivering the newsletter.

The last AC meeting (full log) The list of proposed programs has been updated, with some proposals being archived. There is now a new program: the Tutorial Drive! Consider writing a tutorial on something you are good at doing on Wikipedia. The suggestion of adding a cohesive look to all the Esperanza pages is being considered; join the discussion if you are interested! In order to make a useful interlanguage welcome template, those involved in translation projects will be asked what English Wikipedia policies are most important and confusing to editors coming from other language Wikipedias. A discussion of Esperanza's role in Wikipedia is being held, with all thoughts of all Esperanzians wanted! Shreshth91 informed everyone that he will be leaving the Esperanza council as life is rather busy; his spot will be filled by the runner up from the last election, HighwayCello. Signed...

Opera company articles

Thanks for your note on my page about the Vlaamse Opera. This is one I can certainly try to get to, but don't know when..... There's a lot to do and I'm not sure how much info I can rustle up. So, if someone else does begin, no problem. Vivaverdi 01:48, 6 November 2006 (UTC)

Brian Thomson

No problem! Cheers, Sliggy 15:15, 9 November 2006 (UTC)

Florence Klotz

You are right, I should not have deleted her alleged "birth name" (Kathrina) without putting it up for discussion, I just seriously doubted/doubt that it really was her birth name - regardless of whatever IMDb or IBDb says.

As far as "Ms." being non-encyclopaedic, I am afraid we must agree to disagree unless you can show me something in writing to back up your assertion.

Yours sincerely,

HOT L Baltimore 20:48, 11 November 2006 (UTC)

RMS Umbria

Regarding your edits to the above-linked article, per Wikipedia article form, only the first word in a headings (and proper nouns) should be capitalized. I'd fix it myself, but I'm unsure of what needs to be capitalized specifically (the proper nouns). Please see Wikipedia:Manual of Style (headings) for justification.-FateSmiled&DestinyLaughed 03:05, 22 November 2006 (UTC)

BRIAN 1979

Your comment is noted but in this case RMS is a title namely ROYAL MAIL SHIP and is representad in the same way as you would HMS for ship of the royal navy or in the case of SS for state ship, or MV for a merchant vessel.

Stavros1 12:43, 22 November 2006 (UTC)

Thanks

Brian1979 - thanks for your dab on my article on Norton Priory. I am VERY new to Wikipedia and have yet a lot to learn, so that's helpful. It was particluarly pleasing to me to see that my article had been seen by someone 'across the pond' within 24 hours of its being posted.

Best wishes, Peter I. Vardy 17:04, 22 November 2006 (UTC)

Thanks again! Capitals now adjusted. There's so much to learn!!!! Peter I. Vardy 22:50, 22 November 2006 (UTC)

Edit summary on GWB

I agree with it!--Hamedog_Talk|^@ 00:53, 23 November 2006 (UTC)

I personally aqree too, but please refrain from this sort of edit summary in the future. It violates WP:CIVIL and WP:POV. Its only going to inflame an already heavily contested article. While we all like to let off steam, please avoid doing so in edit summaries. Thanks, Gwernol 00:57, 23 November 2006 (UTC)

Deletion request on French Wikipedia

Hello! I saw from your Babel box you're fr-4 so I hope you can make a request on the French Wikipedia for me.

I have nominated the unencyclopedic user page of User:Bestlyriccollection for deletion; however he has copied the same trashy content to the French Wikipedia (user talk page too. Please help me make a request for deletion over at the French WP (maybe here?). Thanks in advance! Kimchi.sg 09:01, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

The user is using his user page to store material not related to the Wikipedia project - how things like the "Jours de garbage" section, or the enormous mass of both internal and external links in the "Cellphone Technologies" section help him in Wikipedia-related tasks is beyond me. You could claim that he is using them as references in articles, but he has made very few edits to cellular phone-related articles; the last was to Sanyo mobile phones, more than 7 months ago. Also, the "Free Surfing Forums" section on his user talk page consists mostly of forum links, which we never use as references around here. It looks more like his personal bookmarks list than a series of references for an article. Lastly (and perhaps not so significantly), if it really is a bona fide list of references, why does he have to register an account on the French Wikipedia (and several other wikis) just to store the same content in his user page there? At the very least, it is suspicious. Kimchi.sg 11:34, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

OK, I'll sleep on it. Kimchi.sg 17:59, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

Deletion of my controversy addition to Lisa Kudrow article

I just noticed that you deleted my Lisa Kudrow controversy edit because it was non referenced and POV. I tried to get a reference to her actual words but was unable to. And as for the POV aspect of my edit, I did reference national health care to a wikipedia article. The French health care system is considered to be excellent per various ratings but I did not reference that either---here are some belated refs [[1]] [[2]] [[3]]. So I agree for the reasons of your deletion, but I still feel strongly that her comment was controversial and made no sense. I am an user of the French health system, and I know from experience and knowledge that a patient has access to medical doctors at all times, French doctors do not disappear during the summer. When I searched the Web, I came across Americans stating that they now know that all socialized medicine is useless because Lisa Kudrow said so. So her comment was controversial, misleading, and wrong. I will write a Wikipedia article on the French Health Care system, so next time I need to reference it, I can. --Gondola 11:51, 30 November 2006 (UTC)

Lisa Kudrow advice

Perhaps if it's worded diffferently it won't be POV? Honestly I only vaguely remember having done it. How long ago was this? I'm glad you didn;t take it personally. -FateSmiled&DestinyLaughed 11:57, 30 November 2006 (UTC)

Perhaps the deletion of the last sentence would make it less POV, even through it is true!:

On the Tonight Show, aired on August 1, 2006, she mentioned to Jay Leno that she was unable to receive proper medical attention while vacationing in France and had to resort calling her own doctor in California. The French publicly-funded health care system provides for medical doctor visits at home for a nominal fee and provides for medical personnel to be available every day of the year. In addition there is private medical treatment available. Her comment therefore has caused puzzlement among the users of the French health care system.

Your edit was dated Sept 21 per that article page's history. No need for me to take your edit personally, as you gave good reasons and I could contact you directly.

Even with improving the POV language, Kudrow's words still need to be referenced, and I tried very hard without success to get a transcript or a video of her words. Wikipedia takes possible slandering of celebrities very seriously as they need to.

But the positive aspect of your edit is I am now motivated to write an article on the French national health care system, so I thank you for that!--Gondola 14:08, 30 November 2006 (UTC)

Miami Vice

Hi dude! :) How are you? Miami Vice was good that's all i can say! It did make a success for farrell's career, since it qualified for a boxoffice status! :) Ramirez 06:00 December 3, 2006 (UTC)

Reply: Hi there! :) I like all of Farrell's movies, since I'am a big fan. My favourites are Phone Booth, Recruit, S.W.A.T and The New World, Miami Vice etc.. Alexander was a good film, some people just took the whole homosexuality to seriously, but as Oliver Stone would say "Alexander and Hephastion's relationship was more of a friendly issue; there is nothing wrong with a king who cries and express emotions". All of it's stories though was based on facts and real events. :) Ramirez, 22:30 03 December, 2006 (UTC)

Sorry

Sorry mate, as you can see this is the second mistake I've made today, the ability to discern vandalisim from a ligitimate edit will take me some time, I'm sorry for the confusion. Dfrg.msc ^{1 . 2 . Editor Review} 01:45, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

Thanks!

Hi! Thanks for the kind words. I still have a lot more work to do on Assault on Precinct 13, but one can only procrastinate so long. My dissertation advisor would probably be really annoyed if he knew how much time I've devoted to writing about a 70s action film.

Concordia Newsletter

NEWSLETTER

Concordia is currently trying to relaunch. I, and all the members of the ex-council, wish to welcome new members to the group. We are a group who aim to promote remaining civil, in an environment where messages can easily be interpretated wrongly.

Help out now!

• Try and help people remain civil! Talk to them, and help them in any way possible. Do not be afraid to use the talk page.
• Give people the Civility Barnstar.
• Make and spread some Wikitokens so people know there are people to help if they want assistance.
• Add banners or logos to your userpage to show your support.
• Suggest some ideas! Add 'em to the talk page.

We are a community, so can only work though community contributions and support. It's the helping that counts.

Decision Making

The council expired one month ago, but due to the current position of the group the current council will remain until the position of the group can be assessed, and whether it would be sensible to keep Concordia going. For most decisions, however, it will be decided by all who choose to partake in discussions. I am trying to relaunch because of the vast amounts of new members we have received, demonstrating that the aims are supported.

If you wish to opt of of further talk-page communications, just let us know here.

- Ian¹³/t 20:29, 13 December 2006 (UTC). Kindly delivered by MiszaBot.

Just friendly FYI

When you've used the appropriate code to italicize a television program for example, there is no need to but further quotes around it (as you did in Michael Hogben). See Wikipedia:Manual of Style. Happy editing! -FateSmiled&DestinyLaughed 22:32, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

As you refer to the Michael Hogben article, I put it together rather quickly and was going back to it - but thanks! Rgds, - Trident13 22:39, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

Eulogy category - reply

hi. since the description of the LGBT-related films category reads, "films that deal with or feature important gay, lesbian or bisexual or transgender characters or issues and may have same-sex romance or relationships as an important plot device", i figured having both that category and the lesbian film category attached to Eulogy (film) was redundant. J. Van Meter 02:42, 15 December 2006 (UTC)

Re:Normal (film)

I am not sure why I did that because, as you may have noticed, it was done three months ago. :) It was probably because at the time, Made-for-TV movies had not been in WP:FILMS's scope. However, now they are, so I have rated that article on its quality. Thanks for bringing this to my attention, Cbrown1023 21:26, 15 December 2006 (UTC)

Hot guys

Hi Brian. Attention grabbing headline, yeah?

After devoting article after article to species of genus Acer, dead Boston Brahmin, medieval literature, stupidly obscure films like Kjærlighetens kjøtere and other topics well-removed from my immediate personal experience, I recently turned my attention to a few gay topics. I just made articles for Adam4Adam and The French Connection (videos) and completely rewrote Manhunt.net and Party and Play. The French Connection videos article gave me an excuse to post some images of hot guys (really, more than was needed) just like it gave me an excuse for the above headline.

I thought it might be fun to point these out to you. I think the rest of my Wikipedia contacts play for the other team (although one has a goatee and wears a baseball cap, i.e. highly suspect!).

(John) ◄HouseOfScandal► 18:29, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

Update: the French Connection article is up for deletion on the grounds that its too akin to an advertisement. It would be cool if you read the article and saw my comments on the talk page of the article and chimed in accordigly. If your views on this article disagree with mine and you think it shoud be wiped, they'll be no hard feelings.

WP:FILMS Newsletter

File:Transparent film reel and film.png The Films WikiProject Newsletter Volume I, no. 2 - December 2006
Project News Two new templates have been created to alert editors on how to improve film articles. Add {{needs film infobox}} for an article that is missing an infobox and {{film needs synopsis}} for an article that needs a plot summary for the film. Both templates go on the talk page on the film article and once the information is added, the templates can be removed. Talk pages that have these templates are accessible from Category:Articles that need a film infobox and Category:Films that need a synopsis. So if you are looking from something to do, go there! We are introducing a new department this month, Spotlight. This department will show articles and members that we are especially proud of or achievements that the project or its members have made. One of the key features of this new department is a listing of the project's featured and good articles. In addition to have the listing on the department page, Spotlight will showcase the new additions in the newsletter each month. Here is the first update: Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope (12/3) Samuel L. Jackson (12/4) The Fountain (12/7) Drew Carey (12/9) The Public Enemy (12/15) "She Shoulda Said 'No'!" (12/16) Ginger Snaps (12/16) Snakes on a Plane (12/20) The Boondock Saints (12/20) The Blues Brothers (film) (12/21) As you can see, several films and film-related articles have reached GA and FA status in December. Keep up the good work! The Collaboration Department finished its collaboration from last month, Psycho (1960 film). It improved greatly over the two week time period and is now being peer reviewed in preparation for a featured article nomination. The current collaboration, Back to the Future continues to improve. They appreciate any help in editing before the next collaboration is chosen on December 23. You can vote for the next collaboration here. The project banner has had a new feature added to help show the past and current collaborations' improvements inside the template. Check out the usage information for details. The Assessment Department continues to grade our many articles as they are added. If you feel that you have greatly improved an article or think a grade is outdated, you can go ask the people at the Assessment Department to assess it. You can also view the project statistics there. The Peer Review Department has had five new articles this month, with two becoming good articles. Another improvement for that department is MartinBotII listing our peer review pages on the general peer review page, allowing the articles to get more feedback than before. Member News We have had twelve new members to the project this month: Jim Dunning, Joe, Australian Matt, PhantomS, Made of people, Silent reverie86, David Spalding, Schmiteye, Ryan Sanderson, Badbilltucker, Rhthpr, and Daniel Case. Cbrown1023 has become an administrator this month. Please contact him on his talk page for any film-related admin help.	Current proposals and discussions The Naming Conventions for films have been updated. We are currently discussing whether we agree with the changes to get a consensus and allow them to stay. The World cinema pages have been getting a lot of attention and the talk page is littered with different posts relating to it and its new navigation template.

Well, if it was outright vandalism I'd suggest Wikipedia:Administrator intervention against vandalism or Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons/Noticeboard (and you could try those), but it just appears to be useless, non-n info, and the user(s) haven't broken 3rr (yet). Next time it gets added, you could warn them about WP:3RR and then report all of them when they break it (i.e. it should be easy to convince the folks over at 3RR that it's obvious sockpuppetry used to break 3RR).

Thanks for the thanks! I'm just doing my WikiGnome thing with AutoWikiBrowser. It does all the heavy work. I just glance over the changes it proposes and approve them or tell it to skip the article. Quite easy and it runs in the background checking page after page, only beeping when it hits a page with changes. Wow, I sound like a salesman, huh? Just my little contribution to making WP a better reference. This is my mindless copyediting mode as opposed to actual editing and writing in articles. I can do that as well, really. Best. --Pigman (talk • contribs) 06:10, 24 December 2006 (UTC)

Channing Tatum on Wikipedia:Administrator intervention against vandalism

Hi Brian1979, although Mad Jack suggested that you post this case on Wikipedia:Administrator intervention against vandalism, this page is for cases of blatant vandalism where users have already been issued warnings. Yours is a complex case, so I moved it to Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents. I will, however, issue warnings to the two users that you mentioned. --Deathphoenix ʕ 17:57, 24 December 2006 (UTC)

Merry Christmas is fine by me, and a Merry Expired Christmas to you! More than likely, the user simply went to another computer. As this was a single edit, not ongoing, further action isn't necessary at this time. But if there are any more persistent edits of this fashion, a block may be in order. Cheers, Deathphoenix ʕ 19:51, 28 December 2006 (UTC)

Re: Admin Help

Glad to see it's been taken care of - sorry I didn't get back to you sooner. -- Natalya 16:16, 26 December 2006 (UTC)

Cinema Collaboration of the Week

Thanks for proposing Pulp Fiction for Cinema Collaboration of the Week. Do you think you could do me a favor and vote for my proposal, "A Trip to the Moon?" Thanks. --GHcool 07:10, 31 December 2006 (UTC)
