No bother at all ;) Click on "my preferences" at the top, and the first link on the left is "User Profile"; under your name is a box for the signature. If you use coding like I do (you'll see the coding when you edit this page), check the box that says "Raw signature". More details are available at WP:SIG. Happy editing! :) RadioKirk (u|t|c) 20:32, 20 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks

I find myself shocked that dispite there being a garishly large warning against changing the genre listing for disturbed without additional references, that some people continue to do so! Thank you for catching the changes :) LinaMishima 15:35, 16 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

my appologies

Hello I appologize for changing the genre of disturbed's catagorization. I should have obeyed the warning not to. I just dislike the catagorization of nu-metal, i think alternative metal is a much better term to use.

Why did you delete it? - - 'twsx'talk'cont' 07:15, 18 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I deleted it because it had been in CAT:NS for 7 days, meaning that it had no source information. This is done routinely in accordance with speedy criterion I4. I will gladly restore it for you if you provide the source info. DVD+ R/W 15:26, 18 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, are you planning on answering the messages on my talk page? I left you my email like this its easier for both of us.

Thanks

Hey just wanted to say thanks for the props you gave me on my talk page. It was encouraging. Please contact me for any other disputes you need another prospective on, especially metal ones. I love helping out. - AidanPryde 21:48, 29 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Re:Disturbed reference

Hey, Yeah I will try to dig in the WWW in order to find some stuff that might give an overview of all the sources I have given. It might take a while though, but it will solve a lot of the problems that might arise. Thanks for suggesting this idea. --Zouavman Le Zouave _{(Talk to me! • See my edits!)} 07:12, 18 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

There doesn't seem to be any order to the listings, just fans wanting "nu metal" put low. And I found this on the talk page: "The genre line is now "Hard Rock, Nu Metal, Alternative Metal"", in which the order does not even match. Call it vandalism, but you're out on a limb if you seriously think it is "generally" accepted that they now play hard rock/metal. I totally agree with Zouavman, and I think that needs serious rewording. One or two sources calling them heavy metal makes no real difference, go ask any 80s metal fans what they think of this band. A simple search on the MA even provides us with the information "Not to be confused with the mallcore band" on a thrash metal band of the same name's page (mallcore being synonymous with nu metal). My point is, that sentence is completely wrong, and just sounds like some Disturbed fan trying to get the band credibility. It wasn't vandalism, it was getting rid of false information, and that's the bottom line. --Ryouga 20:28, 27 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

"Fact is, nu metal is a sub-genre of metal music." Haha, no, it isn't. That's just what Wikipedia and the fans say. The truth is, it is an amalgamation of various genres, the "metal" in the name really doesn't hold much, other than distorted guitars. You might dislike the Encyclopaedia Metallum, but they have a much better grasp on metal than what you may think. If we are in agreement that they really aren't "heavy metal," then changing that statement shouldn't be such a problem. It is really put as a statement, which it shouldn't be. I'm not really trying to make a point here: if I wanted to, I'd've removed heavy metal and any mention of it from the page, but that would be futile and unjustified. I doubt you see my point, but hopefully you understand that the one sentence in the opening paragraph is misleading. --Ryouga 21:13, 27 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Bro, I'm not here to have the entire page removed, I'm just not seeing a shed of light on that sentence, as per the sources. It seems like it was crafted to advertise new Disturbed as being "metal," which we both do not agree with either, whether sourced or not. Mentioning those genres is fine, but I guess for now I'll bring it up on talk and see what different sentences we can come up with. --Ryouga 21:22, 27 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Idalou Independent School District

I removed the {{prod}} on Idalou Independent School District and added {{Texas-school-stub}}, which seems more appropriate than proposing the article's deletion. --TruthbringerToronto (Talk | contribs) 01:46, 12 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned fair use image (Image:Disturbed-userpage-tws.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Disturbed-userpage-tws.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image 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 images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable under fair use (see our fair use policy).

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 any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.

David Draiman

Hello. You have reverted what you thought to be vandalism on the David Draiman article. However, it is not vandalism. See the talk page for more information (where my source is given).

Goodtones

The interview is sufficient proof. I have the magazine on my desk right beside me and Draiman clearly points out that he is homosexual. The article doesn't belong to you. Metal Edge magazine wouldn't make an insult on Draiman since they are very much interested in Alternative Metal bands like Disturbed, System Of A Down, Slipknot... Why shouldn't this part be added into the article? It's not used as an insult, and it's definitely not attacking Draiman's image (except if you look at this from a homophobic point of view). I am putting back the statement.

Goodtones

I posted the quote on the talk page. If all unsourced content was to be removed from the article, then the article should be blank. If you cannot accept the fact that Draiman is gay, then maybe you are taking this too personally. I will try to look for a source, but until then, I am putting back the statement for there is no reason to take it off the article. Goodtones 09:09, 2 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I am not trying to cause any conflict. You are telling me that I am using this as a derogative term, however I am myself gay and fan of Disturbed. There is no logical reason for me to attack Draiman's image. I should also remind you to assume good faith. I gave a source on the talk page that clearly establishes Draiman's homosexuality. I think it is a very important fact about Draiman and that ommiting it would be a mistake (for people generally tend to consider heterosexuality as normal). The entire article has no references, so why erase only this particular sentence? I think you are taking this personally (I have seen that you are also a Disturbed fan) and that you do not accept the fact that Draiman is gay. Could this end before it goes to further authorities?

Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Gianna Michaels (2nd nomination)‎

Just letting you know that you failed your duty as a wikipedia administrator today. Not only did you not care to acquire an overview of the debate, which would have lead to no consensus, you also failed to really read it. None of the keep votes gave any weightily base. WP:PORNBIO, which still is the official guideline for pornstar biographies is failed at one hundert percent, regardless, you let yourself be overwhelmed by the massive amount of keep votes by 15 year old porn lovers, who, whatever one may think of those people, do not put the common good of an important encyclopaedia over their own affection for these surreal women. Although I have always had a high opinion of almost all wikipedia administrators and I will keep doing so, you, sir, have shown great incompetence in dealing with the matter, and you are a shame to your kind. I don't think I care enough for the subject to pursue it any further, but even though I know you won't care for my opinion towards you and you will dismiss it right away, I needed to tell you this. Regards, ~ | twsx | ^talk_cont | 14:45, 10 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Wow. What a horrible, incivil comment to find on my talk page. I can assure you I read the AfD thoroughly, and if you have a problem with it, don't come running to me to whine about it. Take it to WP:DRV like any other user would. How dare you tell me I have "failed", and shown "great incompetence"? Let me point you to WP:NPA, WP:CIVIL and WP:IDON'TLIKEIT. Majorly _{(o rly?)} 14:54, 10 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The quote "don't come running to me to whine about it" is just as u(i)ncivil. Nevertheless, i'm sorry, I was just a little late with calming down.
I dare calling you those things because they are true. I was actually surprised that anyone could not only not decide for delete, but also skip the no consensus level. The circumstances are absolutely obvious and clear. Article fails the given requirements without an exception, case closed. But probably you can tell me what made you decide against the policy, and maybe i can even understand it? ~ | twsx | ^talk_cont | 15:10, 10 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I guess apologies for the personal attack are in order. Sorry. Everything else stands. ~ | twsx | ^talk_cont | 14:56, 10 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I can't really see what the problem is. Even if it was no consensus it would still have been kept. Majorly _{(o rly?)} 15:00, 10 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I am aware of that. I only pointed out that you two-way failed handling the decision, despite the fact that it doesn't make any difference. ~ | twsx | ^talk_cont | 15:11, 10 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I didn't fail. I may have written the wrong result (which I don't believe I did), but I didn't fail. Please stop saying I did because I didn't. Majorly _{(o rly?)} 15:18, 10 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Then explain, 4 paragraphs above. ~ | twsx | ^talk_cont | 15:37, 10 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

WP:DRV is the best place to go. I already said, I looked at every comment and thought the keeps were stronger. Majorly _{(o rly?)} 15:44, 10 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I have already addressed my intentions regarding further persuasion. Are you unable to justify your decision, or why can you not answer my question? ~ | twsx | ^talk_cont | 16:36, 10 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I went with the consensus, which was keep if you discounted the "I don't like it" votes. I didn't go against policy. Please take it to WP:DRV like I asked; I have no wish to continue discussing this, I have no preference of whether the article stays or not, and I'd rather other users discussed it if you are unhappy with the result.

Image:AnthonyAnderson_hbo-entourage2_nyc_premiere.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:AnthonyAnderson_hbo-entourage2_nyc_premiere.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:

Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{Replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. ˉˉ^anetode╦╩ 04:58, 13 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I just removed a personal attack on myself from the said page. Please don't make unnecessary attacks on me, it doesn't help anything. Thank you. Majorly _{(o rly?)} 22:24, 17 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I don't really care for your opinion, i guess thats what we have in common. Allthough you failed greatly on that AFD, i guess you generally are aware of wikipedia policies, and therefor i'll just assume that the statement on the logpage does consitute as breach of policy and you editing it is perfectly acceptable. Changed it, describing the decision incompetent, instead of the person. ~ | twsx | ^talk_cont | 00:24, 18 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

We've been through this, I did not fail greatly. Just because you wanted the article to go does not mean it necessarily should. Please stop making ad hominem attacks and let the matter drop. You can always nominate it again. Majorly _{(o rly?)} 07:46, 18 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

That's a good one! However, the person who keeps trying to push the matter is you. I have no intention of assaulting you again (about which i, again, am truely sorry), nor to take it to DRV, probably not even to re-nominate it, i'm just logging stuff for future reference... ~ | twsx | ^talk_cont | 12:19, 18 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I don't mind you logging it, what I do mind is you saying it was against policy which it wasn't. Majorly _{(o rly?)} 13:55, 18 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Twsx.

I noticed that you had placed "importance" and "unreferenced" tags on this article.

I'm curious about your reasoning. The article, as it stood when you tagged it, made several claims of notability and was well referenced. Or am I missing something? Thanks! DavidCBryant 17:44, 20 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
