Beer brands

You might want to do a quick count; you do not have consensus for inclusion. I am not sure why you are seeking a pissing match over this, but I am rather firmly convinced that going into the minutiae of naming the brands that each drank does not serve the article as it is undue weight and trivial, and I think you are going to find that most of the others feel precisely the same way. We hd been willing to compromise in preserving this crufty little matter int he footnotes. At best, that is the only place it should be. Please do not edit-war over the matter. - Arcayne (^{cast a spell}) 02:54, 2 August 2009 (UTC)

Yeah, I had to come back here to make sure, as I was sure I asked you not to editwar over the material. I did. And you disregarded it. Consider this your 3RR warning. This is a stupid way to make a point, Peregrine, and you are better than this. Please knock it off. - Arcayne (^{cast a spell}) 02:19, 3 August 2009 (UTC)

I don't like your tone, and you need to work on your counting. - Peregrine Fisher (talk) (contribs) 04:52, 3 August 2009 (UTC)

About the tone, sorry about that. I guess I tend to get a little frustrated when I ask people to use the discussion page and they completely ignore me, Go figure. Now, allow me to advise you that if you continue to edit-war a version, citing a non-existent consensus (as discussion is going on, and at the very mest, you are still in a numerical minority), matters will escalate. I truly hope you take a step back. Just as you are put of by my tone, understand that it was inspired by your bad behavior in constantly reverting. Please do not make this matter escalate. PF. - Arcayne (^{cast a spell}) 11:15, 3 August 2009 (UTC)

Expedition

Hey, I don't want to make assumptions, but looking good! :) We've got a few supports and no opposes... good work! BOZ (talk) 01:21, 3 August 2009 (UTC)

Volcano (South Park)

Hey Peregrine. Would you mind striking the concerns at the FAC for Volcano (South Park) that you feel are addressed? Right now it's hard to tell which ones are fixed and which ones aren't because they aren't yet struck. Whenever you get a chance... — Hunter Kahn _(c) 01:37, 3 August 2009 (UTC)

North by Northwest

Hi, thanks for notifying me about the North by Northwest images, however, I don't think I'll use them because there's not much room for them. Anyhow, thank you very much.--Music26/11 20:09, 3 August 2009 (UTC)

Hope I wasn't acting presumptuously ...

... when I added the word Support to your post on Pete's modest proposal. If so, just quietly revert it and accept my humble appologies. In retrospect, I should have just put a comment here inviting you to edit your own post. YBG (talk) 04:38, 6 August 2009 (UTC)

That's fine. I meant support, but I forgot to add it in bold. - Peregrine Fisher (talk) (contribs) 15:15, 6 August 2009 (UTC)

It is really great to see you again my friend

Expedition to the Barrier Peaks FA

Congrats! A really good article. Hekerui (talk) 13:46, 12 August 2009 (UTC)

Excellent work, my friend!  :) BOZ (talk) 15:07, 12 August 2009 (UTC)

Thanks, guys. - Peregrine Fisher (talk) (contribs) 16:20, 12 August 2009 (UTC)

		The Dungeons & Dragons Barnstar
		For your excellent work in bringing Expedition to the Barrier Peaks up to Featured Article status, I hereby award you this barnstar! Great job! –Drilnoth (T • C • L) 15:19, 14 August 2009 (UTC)

Wow, I might just have to read a D&D article...something I never thought I'd say! Congrats Peregrine :) -Pete (talk) 18:03, 14 August 2009 (UTC)

LOL. Be careful, they're addictive if you ever used to play. - Peregrine Fisher (talk) (contribs) 18:14, 14 August 2009 (UTC)

More module GAs?

I was looking around at what we've got to see what would be good for a go, if you'd be interested. I'd say as my benchmark for getting a decent GA, an article would need to have a reception section with at least three RS's. The Sinister Secret of Saltmarsh, The Hidden Shrine of Tamoachan, Scourge of the Slave Lords, and Desert of Desolation all pop out as meeting that requirement. Some of these need more work than others (particularly the last one). Scant or nonexistant plot summary sections can easily be taken care of as I believe I have copies of these at home. Thoughts? BOZ (talk) 19:36, 12 August 2009 (UTC)

It depends on how this little FA run I'm trying to start goes. I'd like to get Descent into the Depths of the Earth up to GA, and the rest of that series, although it's Publication history section is kinda crappy. The Reception part would be easy to fix. Even with what I've done to Ravenloft, Against the Giants is almost closer to FA. They both just need a bunch of copy-editing to avoid some early pile on opposes for prose. - Peregrine Fisher (talk) (contribs) 19:54, 12 August 2009 (UTC)

Hey, I'm up for whatever. :) I tossed on all the Wired.com links for the "Top 10 modules in storage" series that I could actually find, and we can expand those articles later. He actually said somewhere he was "going to 11 like Spinal Tap", so I count six working links, with two modules on one of those links, and AtG piled on as three modules onto another link, so that makes 10. I know we used one for Tomb of Horrors, so that makes 11 unless I'm mistaken somewhere. BOZ (talk) 22:08, 12 August 2009 (UTC)

And regarding Descent, the Reception section can be beefed up by moving some items out of the lead (in fact, I'll do that now). A look at the review from Different Worlds would be ideal. BOZ (talk) 22:11, 12 August 2009 (UTC)

Cite buttons gone

Hi Peregrine, I currently seem to have the same problem that you had then. Were you able to solve it? I miss my old button bar, and the cite buttons.

My editing environment changed after I switched the WikEd gadget on and then off again (I didn't like it that much). Things have not been the same since. Would be grateful if you could drop me a hint. Cheers, --JN466 19:09, 14 August 2009 (UTC)

My problem was caused by using the new beta environment. I had to go back to the old one. - Peregrine Fisher (talk) (contribs) 00:49, 15 August 2009 (UTC)

Thanks. Switching WikEd on somehow seems to have subscribed me to Beta as well. To get my buttons back I had to formally join Beta (even though I already had their toolbar) and leave it again. All is well now; thanks for the pointer. Regards, --JN466 11:05, 15 August 2009 (UTC)

Third opinion and List of guest appearances in Doctor Who

I too voted on the deletion discussion for the article above. Our opinions on the deletion differed, but I agreed with you that a part of the article should be removed. I removed it, but was caught up with an editor who beleived I had done so simply on my own volition and so required a third opinion.

I feel a bit steamrollered by the whole thing (not being quite so well read on WP policies I guess) and perhaps I've not explained well enough here, would you mind looking over the article and talk page if you have a chance? Alastairward (talk) 00:23, 16 August 2009 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (File:Man vs. Wild title screen.jpg)

Thanks for uploading File:Man vs. Wild title screen.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 'file' 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 "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. BJBot (talk) 05:30, 19 August 2009 (UTC)
