Actually...

My last edit, in which I included Jessica Alba in "People with eating disorders" category, is in fact supported by the article and a citation. I would suggest doing your research rather reverting someone as a knee-jerk reaction. Treybien 15:52 24 September 2006 (UTC)

...

You are not citing your sources either mr Yamla. By the way are 6 ft 1.83 m, NOT 1.82 as you list. Brad Pitt is back at 5-11

Wha?

What vandalism are you talking about? I dont believe I've ever added anything to wiki ever. I read it often - edit - never! cheers. (i'm not even sure if this is where I moan about the odd message! *grumble*)

Sitting Room page

What do you think? I added a picture to Sitting_room. There wasnt one before, so I thought I would add one. D'you think it gets the point across ok?

Jessica Alba Page

Sorry I did not realise what I was doing was wrong. I'm new to this malarkey. Thanks for telling me.

Nickelback etc.

Hi Yamla,

Just want some clarification -- the only reason those were added was that the Forbes lists are frequently cited. It seems only reasonable to add some Canadian references when the subject matter is distinctly Canadian. (Well, alright, Celine lives in Vegas these days, but...) And here I was thinking I was adding some value to the article, especially for Canadian readers who want may more information from another credible source. CB material is archived by libraries, FP datamart, Thomson, etc. after all.

Cheers,

CBO Editor

Monique Currie page

Can you upload the page and get some pictures of her and more info? thanks

tsk

Sorry, I was just trying to see what it would do, and I just picked a username at random.

external links

sorry didn't know adding related links are considered as spam. whether they are my site or someone elses site they are related to content of the page i edited i guess. i'll stop it as you say. but i'm sure spam is really very different than what i do :). at least what i do is something related with the content of entry.

Deathrocker

Deathrocker is known for doing this. If you check Heavy Metal related articles, he reverts any changes to what he calls 'his' articles Vandalism and Sockpuppetry. Deathrocker is also on probation by the Abbirition Commitee, stating that all his blocks for incidents of this nature should be logged there. I suggest doing so, and reading up on exactly what is supposed to happen from his parolem, as he was found guilty of accusing several adminstrators of admin abuse before when he has been blocked, and created several sockpuppets to evade those blocks.

Oh, and one other thing i call to point. I ask you keep an eye on this post, as Deathrocker also has the habit of removing posts on discussion pages by anomynous users and registered members alike that do not agree with him.

External Links

9/3/06 Sorry Yamla, didn't know I wasn't allowed to add links and stuff. Won't do it again. Well I just want to let you know that the link I tried to add to Aly & AJ's pages were official MySpace pages of theirs for fans so you can edit that page yourself instead. Sorry if I cause too much trouble =)

Really sorry that my adding links was against Wikipedia's policy. Thanks for doing your job right. - Joe21

From Temp77: Relaying A Message From 7g7em7ini

Dear Yamla: I am just relaying a message from 7g7em7ini due to the 24 hours block you imposed, thereby preventing a direct response from 7g7em7ini. The message is: "I see that you have deliberately targeted me again. This is the last straw. Rest assured that I will not be making any further contributions to Wikipedia and I shall be removing all of my contributions to it over the last month as is my right. Do not revert my removals under any circumstances as you did last time. I will remove my contributions exactly 24 hours after you blocked me. I would also add that whilst I was a user, I had right to put whatever I liked on my own talk page and all that has been removed is out of date entries"

seriously.

I think this user, whom you blocked, has a sockpuppet, Joesatisgod. I reported it here.

Sorry for adding external links

Hi Yamla,

I am sorry for adding external links. I didn't know it was against Wikipedia's policy.

Three cheers for doing your work right.

I would like to continue using Wikipedia because I want to publish some articles.

Thanks,

Joe (Joe21)

Absolutely, you are welcome to continue using Wikipedia. The only goal of the warnings was to have you stop adding inappropriate external links to the Wikipedia. We do encourage and look forward to your contributions. --Yamla 15:57, 29 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks

for the reverts to my usertalk. I appreciate it. Regards, alphaChimp^(talk) 18:41, 29 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The Fray

I wondered why you removed these links as "Spam" from The Fray page:

The First one is The Fray's Official Myspace which people can hear music from. The second is a very imfomative fansite, from which a lot of the original artical information came from (including the information on Movement and Reason) as well as the webmaster (me...which is why I am asking) checks all the information on The Fray articles to make sure they are completly accurate. So I'm wonering why it was labeled Spam.... — Preceding unsigned comment added by Frayawaytheedges (talk • contribs)

Please read WP:EL. Thanks. --Yamla 20:23, 1 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. I hadn't known that. I'll make sure that if I edit the article and that information can be found at the website that I put it as a refernce then.

Also could you tell me how do I reference to a webpage?

And how does one cite primary information? I know the guys of The Fray, so all the information I have to add is what they have told me directly and I don't know how to cite that to prove it's authenticity.

Reese Witherspoon

I wasn't reverting you. I started editing the old version before and I guess the software merged it together oddly. I was fixing the way the ip had added the picture (with the frame). Sorry about that. The picture should go and I should have checked the history. Broken Segue 20:30, 1 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I Don't Like You Either

I love helping to contribute to revolutionary Country singers who have become very famous in their lifetimes. All I did was add a new album picure to Sara Evans' background information. What is wrong with that and how is that vandalism. Leave me alone and find somebody else to bother. Don't bother me again, please! (LovePatsyCline 22:39, 1 October 2006 (UTC))[reply]

Please use the preview next time before submitting your changes so you can verify if what you did worked (or not, as in this case). --Yamla 22:45, 1 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Images on episode lists

Are fair-use images allowed on episode list pages?? (Yugigx60 13:56, 2 October 2006 (UTC))[reply]

No, not in my opinion, not unless they are being used to provide critical commentary on the specific episodes. They may not be used solely to illustrate an episode list. --Yamla 13:59, 2 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The only thing I asked that because, I am having problems with some users with images on the Pokmeon episode list, like I wrote images idenitfy episodes visually and identify key moments. But this Pokémon Collaborative Project voted on not having images which I wasn't imformed with.

I got a commit from a two users liking the idea of images:

Well I personally think they improve the article, and I've followed certain Featured List Candidates involving fair use images, and opposers have always stated that images should be in relation to the text, much like any other image, and not there for decorative purposes. Highway ^Daytrippers 20:24, 1 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I really like the images, and so many articles have it, I think it's accepted. —Mets501 (talk) 20:36, 1 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The users that are causing this problem is A Man in Black and Ryulong. Some of the iamges have the Fair Use Rationale for the images. Please help me (Yugigx60 14:15, 2 October 2006 (UTC))[reply]
