B-class article drive

I see you've signed up to improve Bright Eyes (band). While I'm not a fan of the group (I actually, uh, dislike them very much), I have a some Spin and Mojo article on the group and Conor Oberst that might help. Let me know if you need assistance. WesleyDodds (talk) 01:37, 2 February 2008 (UTC)

Template:User category

Hi. I noticed that you edited Template:User category to try to emphasise the need for collaborative merit. While I support the idea behind the change, I'm a little concerned about some of the unintended consequences it may have.

Not all useful categories imply an interest in collaborating on articles related to the topic mentioned in the category title. For instance, the utility of language categories lies primarily in the ability to translate content rather than in an interest to collaborate on articles about the language itself. The same is true of software categories and the numerous Wikipedia-related categories (most of which I think we could do without, but that's another issue...). I'm also worried about whether the transcluded statement will unintentionally give a certain level of artificial legitimacy to categories whose primary purpose is not collaboration (e.g. support/oppose categories).

What do you think? – Black Falcon ^(Talk) 19:11, 5 February 2008 (UTC)

I think your addition reflects the consensus at UCFD, so I would like to see the statement remain in some form. Perhaps the simplest solution is just to reintroduce the statement and remove the template from the few categories to which it is not suited... There are relatively few such categories as most transclusions of the template are in "alma mater" categories. I'll try to implement that by tomorrow (I don't know why I didn't think of it before). Thanks, Black Falcon ^(Talk) 09:23, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

I recall being asked once before, but not by you. What's with the lack of editing at {{User instrument}}? Don't pressure me into becoming admin for me to have to do it. I spend too much time here anyway, easier just to tell you what to do, e.g. protect {{usbk}} and related templates for high use. I'll definitely let you know when I'm interested. –Pomte 22:39, 2 March 2008 (UTC)

(rather taken aback)

- a.) User instrument somehow fell on the "back burner". I vaguely recall actually discussing with the page's creator.

- b.) pressure you? Nope, not now, not ever. (There are others who I have "pushed" a bit in good humour, But I don't believe my above comments come even close.)

- c.) I'm strongly hoping that the above was said tongue-in-cheek. - jc37 23:02, 2 March 2008 (UTC)

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Marilyn Manson - Portrait of an American Family.jpg

Thank you for uploading Image:Marilyn Manson - Portrait of an American Family.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this image under "fair use" may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the image description page and add or clarify the reason why the image qualifies for fair use. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a fair use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for images used under the fair use policy require both a copyright tag and a fair use rationale.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it might be deleted by adminstrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion.

Maynard James Keenan discography

I've worked this back into the article, as it is very redundant of the main discographies, which I should have considered before creating it. I'm planning to tag it for deletion, but I wanted to get everyone's input first. Please reply here or drop a line on my talk page. Regards, Lara❤Love 02:05, 18 March 2008 (UTC)

WP:Wikiproject Tool update

A few updates in events:

• Maynard James Keenan has been listed for copy-edit at the WP:LoCE, however, the backlog is quite long. Therefore, if anyone has copy-editing skills, please go over the article. I would do it myself, but I've done quite a bit of work on the article and I am incapable of copy-editing my own work.
• Maynard James Keenan discography has been worked back into the bio and has been determined to be redundant of the main discographies. It will most likely be deleted this week.
• Devo Keenan has been created. I think this is a good opportunity for the project to get together and create a DYK entry. The article needs to be expanded and referenced. Hopefully this is possible. I've not yet looked to see how much information is available. Please take time to help with this, if you can. We have four days!!

Thanks to everyone who has helped thus far. The project is still very new, but good progress is being made! Lara❤Love 03:59, 18 March 2008 (UTC)

AfD nomination of Rachel Marsden

An editor has nominated Rachel Marsden, an article on which you have worked or that you created, for deletion. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also "What Wikipedia is not").

Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Rachel Marsden (4th nomination) and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).

You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 19:00, 31 March 2008 (UTC)

Yo

This review, that you removed from MJK's bio, I believe was written by a member of the Prog Archives staff. One of 92 reviews from him on the site. Am I reading the site incorrectly? Without this source, or another to replace it, we'll probably need to remove the sentence it follows. Lara❤Love 19:59, 2 April 2008 (UTC)

The author is a Prog Review. "Prog Reviewers devote their time to writing reviews that give visitors/members an insight into the vast amount of music that is covered by the site."[1] But still, the reviews are self-published and Prog Archives isn't a known review publication. If it is to be cited, there's a bunch of other praise for the lyrics in the other reviews for Lateralus as well.[2]

(Unrelated: Looking through that list, someone on that site has a Tool-inspired username like mine.)

On the article, I think it's not a big loss to remove "Keenan was acclaimed for his songwriting on the album". One could say that he's been acclaimed for his songwriting on all Tool albums, there are probably numerous reviews that favour the lyrics of each. It's hard to tell which is more acclaimed, you'd have to skim through a ton of them.

The "dark, intelligent, compelling, and unexpected lyrical twists" quote right before that is a general comment not specific to Lateralus, so maybe it should be moved to the 'Writing and performance style' section. –Pomte 20:40, 2 April 2008 (UTC)

Doin' the splits

"How do you not strain your muscles? It looks like you performed the splits forwards and then upside down over at WP:UBX and its subpages. Actually, I don't even want to know. Here's an aerobatic barnstar. –Pomte 15:57, 12 April 2008 (UTC)"

Well, at first it seemed smarter to "split" up the page at "Design and construct". But then in hindsight I realised that (potentially in the future) it could be transcluded on more pages than just Wikipedia:Userboxes. So I'd better make sure that that section was fully intact in one location. So essentially, I reverted the moves/splits to "content" and "construct" back to a unified "Design and construct". (If any of that makes sense...)

I've also been working on removing all the personal shortcuts to Wikipedia:Userboxes. It seems everyone had their own preferred form which only they used.

The only one left that needs doing (since it was a bit more broadly used) is WP:BOX. It really should be used for the Wikipedia:Sandbox. It shouldn't be much of an effort to change the links to BOX to point to UBOX instead. (I just don't have the tools to make it convenient : )

Anyway, Thanks for the barnstar. Hope you're having a great day : ) - jc37 16:17, 12 April 2008 (UTC)

Maybe WP:BOX should have redirected to the sandbox to begin with, but now it seems too late. With ~408 incoming links over 2 years including many over the past few months, I'm not sure it's worth altering people's conception of it. Anyone searching for WP:BOX would be acquainted with WP: prefixes, and so would probably try WP:SAND immediately afterwards (if they happen to miss the hatnote on WP:BOX). –Pomte 18:04, 12 April 2008 (UTC)

Well, 408 actually isn't all that much compared to most other shortcuts I've seen. That and I think we're all better off making it easier to get to the sandbox. And even after my pruning, there's still a great many shortcuts to Wikipedia:Userboxes : ) - jc37 20:45, 12 April 2008 (UTC)

Wikipedia voting question

Hi, sorry to bother you, but you've helped me out in the past and I don't really know who to turn to regarding certain Wikipedia questions. An article I worked on (Samwell) is up for deletion. It's been up for about a year and has been added to and modified, mostly for the better, so I'd really like the article to stay put. My question is this: who usually ends up voting when an article is up for deletion? How do people know there's a vote taking place? I love that Wikipedia is a huge democracy, but I don't understand how users know what to vote for or when. Shatner1 (talk) 05:17, 4 September 2008 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (Image:SpookyKidsFlyer.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:SpookyKidsFlyer.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 '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 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) 05:27, 16 September 2008 (UTC)
