Accessibility

I've noticed you removing alt text a lot, such as in this edit. That text is needed for blind readers or other non-visual readers, and its removal puts the article out of compliance with Wikipedia's guidelines. Wikipedia:Accessibility explains this in more detail. Pagrashtak 17:00, 2 January 2009 (UTC)

Thanks. Just to be clear, does alt text just apply to Images or other things aswell? Bovineboy2008 (talk) 17:41, 2 January 2009 (UTC)

I'm not exactly sure what you mean by "other things". Pagrashtak 18:03, 2 January 2009 (UTC)

Nevermind. I did my research now; I still am not always sure of the syntax. Bovineboy2008 (talk) 18:05, 2 January 2009 (UTC)

Receptions

Hi, can you do the receptions for these two articles? Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World and Mega Man ZX. I can't seem to do the VGreviews template right. How did you find out the website's symbols? What do you do if those sites are not on the list? Please reply, thank you.DragonZero (talk) 19:43, 11 January 2009 (UTC)

The Sound of Music (film)

Strike-through text

[copied from your Guestbook:]

Just wondering why all text on your talk page is strike-through? --Thomprod (talk) 18:57, 16 January 2009 (UTC)

I received notifications that the images that I have uploaded had been orphaned and once the image was deleted, I "strike-through"ed the the notification. I don't want to delete it entirely so I can keep a record. Bovineboy2008 (talk) 20:19, 16 January 2009 (UTC)

OK, but it looks like all of the posts on your talk page show up that way, even those that have nothing to do with an image, like mine. --Thomprod (talk) 20:28, 16 January 2009 (UTC)

I think I found the problem: You added the tag <del> before the first section you wanted struck-through, but didn't add the end tag </del> afterwards. This results in the rest of the page being struck-though as well. Just put </del> after the last text you want struck-through and you should be good. --Thomprod (talk) 20:35, 16 January 2009 (UTC)

Obama Inauguration speech

There is no such policy that forbids this information. That is the article that it belongs in. As a historian, I am appalled by the president's apparant lack of knowledge on U.S. History. I have no idea why. Perhaps it comes from his many years going to school abroad, but he has a serious lapse in that department. There is no other article or section to place this information. It is best suited there. Regardless of party or support, the sentence was cited properly and has been placed in its proper section. Any removal means that those removing it are not interested in improving wikipedia, but are only here to protect Obama's image.--Jojhutton (talk) 18:09, 26 January 2009 (UTC)

N yes I could create as many or up to a limit of accounts here so I don't care if u know who I am or not....I could be Gahndi for all I care just let us do our own thing n work together in our own way ...we all got different ideals on how to do things.....just because I want to put more info on things than most ppl would doesn't mean its bad just as you do your things in a different way so just let it be ......cause Im not the only 1 with an opinion here....now I was thinking of putting a regular box chart but I havent seen 1 done here sooo can somebody make one n put in any of the resident evil articles so I'd know how to do it.......n yessss I could read the articles n how to's on doing things on this website but I don't want to spend all day reading....I don't know bout u but I'm just a lil lazy when it comes to reading all dat....so what have we learned today? "WE ALL SHOULD WORK 2GETHER...in our own way but for the same cause...there is no I in team I'm as grateful I have ppl helping out this site more specifically sections I go into just as I assume other members being grateful with my knowledge n contributions to said articles or articles so 4get all the banning jibber-jabbin n lets just be wat we want n honestly there's no point in ppl tryin to band each other here especially the ones who are not messing up the site so u might or might not work for wikipedia directly but I know nothing will happen to me or others doing the same thing as me cause they'll be a riot here ppl would know about this cause they'll put N E thing in the media.....u could have a dog shitting gold shit n ppl would put it on the news cause they aint got nuttin better to do so lets just BE ALL DAT WE CAN BE ...LOL... n just do our thing (in our way....but for good intentions on helping Wikipedia not harming it.)

Coraline (film)

Can you give an explanation as to why you reverted the expansion of Coraline (film)? What was wrong with what you reverted? Who then was a gentleman? (talk) 02:53, 16 February 2009 (UTC)

The Cast section was tagged for being long, it used a blog as a reference and the production section lost good information. If you think it should be contested I don't mind, I just think this version is more helpful/readable.BOVINEBOY2008 02:58, 16 February 2009 (UTC)

banned user reverts

From WP:BAN: " By banning a user, the community has decided that their edits are prima facie unwanted and may be reverted without any further reason. " When I find one of these socks of this user, I don't even look at what he is doing, I just revert. The point is to deny recognition to abusive users like this. This[2] will give you some idea of the scope of this problem, and those are just the socks verified by checkuser, there are about 100 more suspected. I take a revert, block, ignore approach to this problem, quickly reverting the edits, reporting to WP:AIV and moving on. Giving him support, as you have, will only encourage him, we want to convince him that his efforts are futile and he should go away instead of trying to sneak back in every week. Getting banned from Wikipedia doesn't just happen, you have to repeatedly prove you are disruptive. Beeblebrox (talk) 21:28, 19 February 2009 (UTC)

Vgrelease template

Hello there. Just noticed you reverted some of my changes on the Extreme-G articles (to do with formatting - I used {{vgrelease|NA=whatever}}{{vgrelease|PAL=whatever}}, you reverted to {{vgrelease|NA=whatever|PAL=whatever}}). When you stack release dates in a single template call, they appear to get sorted randomly, rather than chronologically (as they should be sorted). It's not a problem in this case, put if you look at something like Twilight Princess, it would cause problems. Just letting you know! Thanks! Fin©™ 16:29, 9 March 2009 (UTC)

I do realize it doesn't sort them chronologically, but there is a specific order that they source and when happens to align with the releases chronologically, it might as well be collapsed. Thank you, though. BOVINEBOY200816:32, 9 March 2009 (UTC)

Fair point, I wasn't aware there was a specific order to them, I'll look into it and use it in the future! Thanks!Fin©™ 16:44, 9 March 2009 (UTC)

Nintendo task force membership update

I am currently gauging the active membership of the Nintendo task force. I have split the members list into an "active list" and an "inactive list" and have moved all members (except myself) to the "inactive list". To confirm that you're still an active participant in the task force, please go to the membership list at WP:NIN and simply move your name from the "inactive list" back onto the "active list". If you no longer wish to be a member, simply remove your name from the list. After two weeks (around 23 March 2009), I will remove all names on the inactive list. Thank you, and hope you're still interested, MuZemike 20:33, 9 March 2009 (UTC)

Tony Hawk Soundtrack Lists

hello, i see that you've been deleting the soundtrack lists from the TH games. let me remind you that wikipedia policy is against such lists when they list random or irrelvant information. In the case of the TH soundtracks I believe they are indeed notable and deserve to be included. Let me also remind you that The Tony Hawk games have spawned numerous successful commercial CDs based on these games. Many which used to have their own pages, but were merged into the games' articles, eventually only to see themselves deleted from the games pages (most notably the soundtrack CD information for the TH3 CD which you recently deleted). Going back to your comment about lists, it is true that lists are undesirable under normal circumstances. But let me point out that many pages for other games like Rock Band and Guitar Hero contain such song lists. And although it can be argued that those lists are justified for those games being considered "musical" games, the Tony Hawk games were some of the first games to feature actual spoken songs as background music. On top of that, the Tony Hawk games contain some of the best soundtrack music in gaming. So much that this has led the franchise to win numerous nominations and awards for them (most notably Tony Hawk's Underground, which was nominated for best Outstanding Achievement for a Licensed Soundtrack by the Academy of Interactive Arts and Sciences. Anyway, regardless of what I have to say or can be argued, people have been deleting these lists without warning and ignoring ongoing discussions on the talk pages. This is can be considered edit warring and this is, unquestionably, against wikipedia policy. You are not above all the editors who have been contributing to these articles. So if you feel very strongly against these lists, I suggest you go and make your case against them in the talk pages like the rest of us before you start deleting them again.---djsinietro (talk) 08:19, 12 March 2009 (UTC)

VGInfobox

Hiya. Just a minor point on your tidying of collapsible lists in the vginfobox - it's still a good idea to keep the platforms as a header for the first release date, just makes for easy reading. Like this as opposed to this. Good work though! =) Thanks!Fin©™ 15:19, 12 March 2009 (UTC)

Yeah cmon man its not cool

Cmon mate. Please stop deleting the soundtracks off THPS 2 and other Tony Hawk articles. It just screws up the whole.

Talk 2 me bout it ok man

Hello

When an actor dies, it is not customary to describe him or her as "late" in the articles about their films. If that were the case, every film article would need to be amended every time a cast member passed away. LiteraryMaven (talk) 16:42, 19 March 2009 (UTC)

I didn't add the term late, I simply removed the comma between March and 2009. But thank you for letting me know.BOVINEBOY2008 17:33, 19 March 2009 (UTC)

I know what happened, I didn't remove the term when I edited it and for some reason it added it back!BOVINEBOY2008 17:34, 19 March 2009 (UTC)

external links in infobox

Just a FYI, I hadn't noticed that the external links in Template:Infobox Film had been deprecated. It would have been helpful to me if you'd mentioned that and included a link to the discussion in your edit summary when you removed the links. Might not hurt to do going forward, especially when reverting. Cheers. -- Intractable (talk) 18:29, 23 March 2009 (UTC)

Knowing

Hello, glad to have a helping hand at Knowing (film). I still need to see the film, otherwise I would work on the article a little bit further. I'd just expand the "Reception" section myself with Ebert's review and other reviews if I didn't want to avoid spoiling myself. Have you seen the film yet? Any chance you could do a small expansion? Everyone seems to want to mention Ebert, which I don't mind... just that not everyone saw the film his way. —Erik (talk •contrib) 21:17, 28 March 2009 (UTC)

I haven't seen it yet, but the reviews do need to be balanced and notable. That's the only reason I've been removing it.BOVINEBOY2008 21:19, 28 March 2009 (UTC)

Alright, just wanted to check. I may drop a request at WT:FILM if the obsession with the Ebert review continues. Just to nip the situation in the bud. Happy editing! —Erik (talk •contrib) 21:26, 28 March 2009 (UTC)

Succession boxes

Hello, I noticed earlier this week that you were combining succession boxes at various film articles and thought this was a good idea. When someone added the UK succession box to Knowing (film), I combined them, but I did not realize it meant deprecating the {{Box Office Leaders USA}} and {{Box Office Leaders}} templates. Do you think they are now useless? Or could there be a better designed approach for using one or more succession boxes? —Erik (talk •contrib) 00:09, 1 April 2009 (UTC)

Those templates are useful, in my opinion, if the film is a #1 in only one country. It seems rather jarring to have two different sized boxes. Maybe if the start and end were taken out, they would be more useful, but that would break a lot of the templates.BOVINEBOY2008 00:13, 1 April 2009 (UTC)

The reason for the templates was people were typing in any old thing into the boxes (Not mentioning the country, for instance). If it's broken, the template should be fixed, not discarded. - Richfife (talk) 01:24, 1 April 2009 (UTC)

Have you seen this: User:Richfife/MultipleBoxOfficeDemo - Richfife (talk) 04:42, 1 April 2009 (UTC)

There is something to be said about collapsed boxes, generally down upon. And perhaps a manner of style needs to be disscussed about succession boxes. BOVINEBOY2008 04:45, 1 April 2009 (UTC)

Veggie Tales

Why did you revert this edit onVeggie Tales? (a) There is a German version and website of Veggie Tales, and (b) "Moe and the Big Exit" (story of Moses) is a sequel to "The Ballad of Little Joe" (story of Joseph). Both edits were correct... TheAE talk/sign 01:13, 3 April 2009 (UTC)

Listing every language is not notable and indiscriminate. The fact that Moe is a sequel to Little Joe is not that notable and unsourced.BOVINEBOY2008 02:04, 3 April 2009 (UTC)

It isn't available in every language, I'd be surprised if it is in hardly any. And even if some part of it is translated into another language, they don't have fully made websites. As for the sequel, how can it be sourced? It is a work of fiction, and has a different notability guideline. The Dark Knight isn't notable as a sequel to Batman Begins, and that fact alone doesn't have its own source. It is just notable because it's true, and shouldn't be reverted without explanation.TheAE talk/sign 03:27, 3 April 2009 (UTC)

Reverting vandalism

Hi, when you revert vandalism, I'd suggest you add a warning on his/her talk page so that an admin can eventually block the account if the vandalism keeps on going. The rule is usually that after four warnings, the account should be blocked. Laurent (talk) 17:31, 5 April 2009 (UTC)

"Clarify me" cleanup

When cleaning up {{Clarify me}} and similar tags, please do not simply delete HTML comments that follow them explaining why the tags were put there, nor comment out the entire sentence to which the tag was added. If you find something like {{Clarify me|date=June 2008}}<!--Some reason or issue expressed here-->, please update it to {{Clarify me|date=June 2008|reason=Some reason or issue expressed here}}, or later editors are in many cases highly unlikely to know why the tag was placed there. — SMcCandlish [talk] [cont] ‹(-¿-)› 05:54, 14 April 2009 (UTC)

COraline Cast

it is not within wiki standards. THEREFORE. not "better" why place the name of the cast member yet explain the character? thats vandalism. the character description is already in the coraline book article, therefore no description in the movie. simple as that. also it looks wrong. —Preceding unsigned comment added by24.249.176.77 (talk) 17:22, 20 April 2009 (UTC)

I'm not exactly sure which edit you are talking about, but here is the manner of style that the cast should be for a Film article. BOVINEBOY2008 01:21, 21 April 2009 (UTC)

Knowing

Hello, would you mind if I reverted your edits to the dates at Knowing (film)? Non-breaking spaces were inserted because month and day are paired together, so end-of-line displacement would be awkward. See WP:NBSP for more. I would revert you, but I was not sure what other clean-up tasks you attempted. —Erik (talk •contrib) 01:42, 21 April 2009 (UTC)

Oh, yeah go ahead. Sorry! BOVINEBOY2008 01:44, 21 April 2009 (UTC)

a tiny request, only for me

Hola. Feel free to ignore this and continue doing what you have (correctly) been doing to the UP article with regards to removing the MPAA rating info. I know you reverted my initial edits along those lines, and in reading the FILM:MOS subsequently, I agree that I was wrong for putting it in the article and have joined you in removing it as it has been added since. So far, so good. My one teeny compaint with how you make that specific edit is your edit summary of "POV" - only because the ratings edit isn't a POV item, it's a MOS issue. The info being added is factual and correct, it just shouldn't be a part of a film article (there's even a current TALK item about it on the film style page). POV makes it sound like the info isn't correct in the first place. Anyway, I'm sure that this only annoys me, but it might be what is leading those who aren't paying attention to the MOS to think that you're fighting the factual nature of the ratings edit. (I hope this didn't come across bitchy, as it's not intended to. More of a "hey, dude here's what I think kinda thing".) SpikeJones (talk) 13:46, 27 April 2009 (UTC)

Yeah, that makes more sense to me. I was putting POV because it seems like giving a certain point of view of a certain country, giving only that rating. MOS seems more accurate to me though. BOVINEBOY2008 14:05, 27 April 2009 (UTC)

Coraline Cast

its wrong

there are three ways to show the cast and character properly

1) voice actor (main character) and than continue to talk about voice actor and her/his thoughts on the main character

OR

2) main character (voice actor) than continue to talk about the main character.

instead you mixed the two examples by saying voice actor as (main character) than all of a sudden continue to talk about the main character (even though it started off with the voice actors name)

you see how it interupts the flow of the voice cast description? —Precedingunsigned comment added by 71.36.116.62 (talk) 23:43, 2 May 2009 (UTC)

I didn't make the guideline, I just use it. BOVINEBOY2008 06:54, 3 May 2009 (UTC)

You probably shouldn't edit war on his talk page. He is allowed to remove warnings. Just thought I'd let you know before you wind up getting in trouble over something silly.  :) Lychosis ^T/C 06:15, 6 May 2009 (UTC)

Meryl Streep

Excuse me, but according to this source andthis source, both of which I saw before making the change, the role has been determined and recorded. Also, the template you used isn't generally used in the manner you placed it in her filmography.Wildhartlivie (talk) 00:24, 7 May 2009 (UTC)

That's fine, just make sure you provide one of those references. BOVINEBOY2008 02:50, 7 May 2009 (UTC)

Protection of VeggieTales?

I've been watching you revert a lot of unsourced IP nonsense from VeggieTales (as well as some other VeggieTales pages). Do you think this warrants temporary semi-protection? Just wondering. American Eagle(talk) 03:21, 7 May 2009 (UTC)

Actually, it seems most of the problems are coming from a roaming IP address, but I don't know how to do any kind of protection.BOVINEBOY2008 03:23, 7 May 2009 (UTC)

If more IP nonsense continues, you (or I) can report it to WP:RFPP and an administrator will protect it. ;) American Eagle (talk) 19:44, 7 May 2009 (UTC)

Got 'im.

The IP turned out to be a school IP...no big surprise given the history. I blocked it for 48 hours. Thanks for letting me know.  :) --PMDrive1061 (talk) 15:49, 15 May 2009 (UTC)

Sure!

What do u say then to changing the source on all of them to the same one,thanx--Aldamira (talk) 21:09, 21 May 2009 (UTC)

Jon And Kate

Feel free to delete this after you read it, but I would direct your attention to the talk page of the article, and the history of the dispute regarding the page. The overwhelming consensus is for inclusion of the information about the affairs, and there is a large amount of documentation there. Instead of removing information from an article if you disagree with it, please check the talk page to see if it has already been a point of contention and well sourced before your arrival. I understand that some people will move things around and citations can get lost temporarily, so I am asking you to please type[citation needed] instead of deleting the information, that will allow the other editors to get the page to a higher standard, instead of being distracted by the fact that large amounts of information are sometimes deleted by fans of the show.Pink-thunderbolt (talk) 17:12, 1 June 2009 (UTC)

American Idiot

Hi. Can you please explain why you removed the background and recording section here? Timmeh!_{(review me)} 20:16, 9 June 2009 (UTC)

A good majority of it was unsourced and seemed crafted. BOVINEBOY2008 20:23, 9 June 2009 (UTC)

To me, it seems most of it was sourced. Although I can't verify the sources, I think we should assume good faith from the editor who wrote it. You could ask WesleyDodds if the information is correct, as it looks like he contributed a good amount to the section. Timmeh!_{(review me)} 20:32, 9 June 2009 (UTC)

As for the other changes in that last edit of mine, I seriously don't remember making them. I must have accidentally restored an old version of the page. You were in the right reverting those. Timmeh!_{(review me)} 20:41, 9 June 2009 (UTC)

Thank you for bringing that section to my attention. BOVINEBOY2008 22:28, 9 June 2009 (UTC)

Dragonball Evolution

Clean up[3] isn't necessary nor is it helpful. The changes you are making are not improving the article: changing the article structure to go against the MoS and introduce unnecessary sections, removing content, and changing the dates without discussion. You boldly changed the structure. Feel free to bring up individual issues you have with the article on the talk page, otherwise please do not continue reverting. --Collectonian (talk · contribs) 01:59, 20 June 2009 (UTC)

Jon & Kate Plus 8 DVD Section

I know that Region 1 is both Canadian and American but for some odd reason, the first four sets of DVDS have a different release date in Canada, but not for the one coming next month. I put Canada because everyone needs to know that the third date is Canadian.

Other shows have more then one release date listed for Region 2 DVDs and it says in brackets which country they're for. If it's allowed there, why can't it be allowed for Jon & Kate? R7604 (talk) 20:40, 22 June 2009 (UTC)

Ice Age etc.

Thanks for your note, the bot actually only changes a very small subset of templates, and only when it's doing other work. This one was a bad choice since it was, as you say at the (technically incorrect) location, so no purpose was served. Thaksn again for your note.Rich Farmbrough, 17:59, 29 June 2009 (UTC).

Filmographies

Hi. I noticed you'd changed back the filmography heading on Helena Bonham Carter to one that is based on the now defunct prettytable class. The WP:ACTOR project came across issues because that style is defunct, so we have updated the style we're using to one that basically displays the same style but uses wikitable, which is the style class that is supposed to be used. The main WP:ACTOR page looks the same but uses the new style coding. I have a page on my user space that has the style displayed as a template to copy and paste, and you're very welcome to use that when you're working on filmographies. It is at User:Wildhartlivie/Projects Filmography and has both the basic filmography template plus one that can be used whenever two filmographies (such as for film and television) are needed. Some project members have been working quite hard to convert these to the wikitable style before someone runs a bot to do it that might result in table errors and it gives us a chance to clean up awards links and correct any errors we've noted. Also note that the project is urging editors to use one line for each of the items in filmographies such as:

|-
| rowspan="3" | 1998
| ''[[Dil Se]]''
| Preeti Nair
| [[Filmfare Best Debut Award]].<br> Screened at the ERA New Horizons Film Festival<br /> & the Helsinki International Film Festival
|-
| ''[[Soldier (Indian movie)|Soldier]]''
| Preeti Singh
|
|-
rather than all of each line of data on one line as used to be used:
|-
| ''[[The Nearly Complete and Utter History of Everything (film)|The Nearly Complete and Utter History of Everything]]'' || Lily || TV film
|-
| 2000 || ''Carnivale'' || Milly || Voice role
|-

It makes it much easier to locate errors in the table layout and work with the content if each is on one line. Thanks so much!Wildhartlivie (talk) 03:38, 30 June 2009 (UTC)

Thank you Wildhartlivie! BOVINEBOY2008 03:41, 30 June 2009 (UTC)
