I recieved an email from another admin asking me to go through some of the Hollywood legends articles to see if I could reduce them and sub page them to make the articles look neater and more uniformed. I started doing that. If you don't mind and have a moment could you look and tell me what you think of what I have done so far. The biggest ones I have tackled so far is Bob Hope and Marilyn Monroe.

Hi Bibliomaniac. The above page is protected from all editing and has been for some time. I think it was you who protected it and I was wondering if there was a specific reason that it was still protected?

Thanks

Ok ole teacher, I have completed my what-if questions and they are ready for your review. I am sorry it took me so long. First off I didn't know they were there and second, I have been battling a really bad flu bug. So, I hate to say it, but wikipedia has not been my main focus these past two days.

Hello there. You did indeed remove the copyrighted material from the summary unfortunately the same material is in comment section of the file history.

Hi.

I noticed you joined up as a member of the Lists of basic topics WikiProject.

I have a couple requests for you...

As you browse/edit Wikipedia, please be on the lookout for links you can add to the lists of basic topics (and each time you find one, add it to the appropriate list). The ones that need the most work are listed at Wikipedia:WikiProject Lists of basic topics.

You can also help build the set by adding or completing lists. Set a personal quota (build or complete one list per month, or per week, or per whatever time period you think you can handle), and keep up with your quota. These lists take from 3 hours to 8 hours each to complete, even if you know nothing about the subject to begin with. (The basic topics of a subject are pretty easy to identify). Even partial lists are useful for study and navigation, so don't be shy. Others can pick up where you've left off.

Links add up, so even if you add one link at a time, here and there, it will help. Please acquire the habit. The more people we get involved with this, the sooner the project will reach its intended scope.

Many thanks for thinking I would make a good administrator and offering to nominate me. I don't actually have any desire to be an administrator, and I'm not at all sure I would be a suitable person to either be one or be nominated to be one. At the moment, I find myself wanting to edit and create articles without having sufficient time available to do so. I think I must try to devote more time to editing and creating articles, as it would let my editing colleagues and friends down, especially within the Cheshire Wikiproject if I did not. The problem is that being an administrator would necessarily mean becoming committed to engaging in more administrator-related issues which would eat away at my editing time; I am already behind what I had hoped I would get done because of various other calls on my time, some unexpected, from family and home commitments. So, once again, many thanks for thinking I might be suitable, but I don't think it would be fair on my editing colleagues and the greater aims of the project for me to accept. Best wishes.  DDStretch  (talk) 09:41, 13 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I noticed you have a request in at peer review which has not yet received any response besides the semi-automated script. Have you tried requesting a peer review from the volunteers list? Another idea is to review someone else's request (particularly one from the list of requests without responses), then ask that they look at your request. Hope these are helpful suggestions and help to get some feedback for your request soon, APR _t 02:00, 14 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

OK, I understand the difference between the G1, G4 and G11, but are there learning pages that you can direct me to that I can learn more about these in depth. These are the areas you wanted me to go into and I truly do not want to dive in there and be hit by a speeding bus for not knowing the ins and outs of these workings. So, if there are direct pages for them, I would certainly appreciate you directing me to them. Thanks Canyouhearmenow 12:45, 14 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Bibliomaniac15! Thank-you for your support in my RfA (91/1/1). I take all the comments to heart and hope I can fulfil the role of being an admin to the high standard that the community deserves. Seraphim♥ Whipp 17:09, 14 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I restored this page - it had been vandalized in January & truncated to the level where it appeared to qualify for CSD-G11. There was a rather detailed and well referenced page hiding in the history. --Versageek 18:15, 14 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

(related discussion - relocated from the top of your talk page) Bibliomaniac15, I am the University of Washington professor facilitated the creation of the wikipedia site: Sounth Maury Island Environmental Issues. I understand that the site was radically changed recently and there was a quick deletion action taken. I understant why it was deleted. One of the students recently sent me this link: http://209.85.173.104/search?q=cache:NQ50O_fTG0UJ:en.wikipedia.org/wiki/South_Maury_Island_environmental_issues+maury+island+environmental+issues&hl=en&ct=clnk&cd=1&gl=us&client=firefox-a

I would like the wiki site to be reinstated to its original form before the substantive and biasing changes. The original wiki was based on months of class work, visitors from both sides of the issues, and honest student input. Even if it's reinstated into the 2006 or early 2007 version, it would be acceptable to me.

What can be done in this instance?

Sincerely, Patrick Christie, Associate Professor, University of Washington, Patrickchristie1

Hi, I have made a proposal that no peer review request be archived without some response. To aid in this, there is a new list of PR requests at least one week old that have had no repsonses beyond a semi-automated peer review. This list is at Wikipedia:Peer review/backlog.

There are just over 100 names on the PR volunteers page, so I figure if each of these volunteers reviewed just one or two PR requests without a response from the list each month, it would easily take care of the "no response" backlog (as there have been 2 or 3 such unanswered requests a day on average).

If you would be able to help out with a review or two a month from the "no responses" backlog list that would be great (and much appreciated). Please discuss questions, comments, or ideas at the PR talk page and thanks in advance for your help, Ruhrfisch _><>°^° 00:13, 16 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Happy Easter! ok we could start the admin coaching tomorrow.

Let me give you my WikiResume first so you can adjust your lessons:

1. I have several DYK's and helped improve a few articles to GA status
2. I have contributed to all Xfd's although my primary focus is Afd's
3. I have no sanctions against me (bans or blocks)
4. I have contributed to "miscellaneous" pages such as WP:ANI, WP:RfA, WP:RFC and WP:AIV though I do not focus my attention on these things
5. The primary articles that I edit are Philippine based or Biology based
6. I do gnomish works such as categorizing pages, reverting vandalism and assessing articles (Which takes up most of my time)
7. I only have a few hours to spare in editing for now due to schedule changes in real life
8. I prefer to call you teacher or sensei (depends on your preference) but not coach since it sounds like you are my fitness regimen adviser :).
9. You could choose where you would do the teaching, my talk page or yours. --Lenticel ^(talk) 08:40, 23 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Hallowcvg.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. 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 non-free media lacking such an explanation 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. Polly (Parrot) 23:01, 18 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

What I did was select the edits with the redirects and then clicked "invert selection" (at Special:Undelete). That restored the pre-redirect versions. Then I realized that I shouldn't have selected the edit with the CSD template, so I undid that one.

Glad to see someone else step up on that article; I think I tried tightening it up at one point but got sidetracked by the Cycluras or something. I don't feel comfortable enough doing a full peer-review, because I'm not the best proofreader in the world and I'm a bit biased against the toxicofera theory...I consider it junk science, but it's out there and it's sourced so...what can you do. The only sources I would suggest replacing are #3 and #10. The information cited by those sources is available among the others you already have and if not, both sources link to other more reputable sources; they're probably ok but look "self-published" and the komodo deserves better, and the FAC reviewers will puke all over you for that! Ref #32 (sign on the cage) might not hold up at FAC, either; again...that information is out there somehere else, I'm sure. I can help complete some of those other sources, missing dates, etc if you need me to; I might even have some additional literature not cited. Good luck...this will make a great featured article!--Mike - Μολὼν λαβέ 05:03, 20 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Well, the only thing in ref #3 I would really question is the size of (V. salvadorii) to my knowledge, it is only presumed they can grow longer than (V. komodoensis); I do not believe this has been proven, yet.

I think it makes sense to mention Varanidae because it is used later in the article. Maybe it should be mentioned in the initial sentence? example from cougar: "The cougar (Puma concolor), also puma, mountain lion, or panther, is a mammal of the Felidae family, native to the Americas.". This sentence sounds strange to me: "A monitor lizard, it is the largest li...". I think it's nice to have both mentioned but it just might take some tweaking to make it flow well.

I am trying to build a working outline and bibliography. You could grab a heading or two to work on, or maybe just add any good sources you know about to the biblio. Thanks --Laser brain (talk) 19:42, 28 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I was reviewing the same image as you when you deleted it, except I came to the opposite conclusion so I was wondering if you could tell me why you deleted Image:incline.gif, I-1 only applies to the same file format doesn't it and the other image is a .svg not a .gif - Also the other image isn't on Wikipedia it's on Commons.--Doug.^{(talk • contribs)} 19:35, 29 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Heyo. You were lead to believe a few weeks ago that deletion of the article Son of Stimpy, a recreation a material deleted at AFD, is prohibited by Arbcom injunction. The injunction only applied during the duration of the case, which concluded before you deleted the article the first time. The article meets WP:CSD#G4, and if Catchpole wishes to restore it, he will have to demonstrate consensus to do so at DRV. Cheers, ➪HiDrNick! 19:49, 29 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Deleted. bibliomaniac15 Hey you! Stop lazing around and help fix this article instead! 20:20, 29 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

You did a fair bit as well, I think you're ignoring the fact that there are two "i"s in "Tzatziki." ;) · AndonicO ^Hail! 21:13, 30 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hello! I'm here to inform you that the Tzatziki Squad has begun a new collaboration, history of timekeeping devices. The goal for the article is Featured status. Please pitch in as much or as little as you can, we appreciate your help! Keilana|^{Parlez ici} 21:17, 30 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I started a peer review at WikiProject video games for The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. I'd appreciate any input: Wikipedia:WikiProject_Video_games/Peer_review#The_Legend_of_Zelda:_Ocarina_of_Time Thanks! Voyaging^(talk) 01:25, 3 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hey Bud! I wanted to let you know I have been doing some heavy work on mainspace with the Lucille Ball article and getting it ready for GAstatus. I went in a reformatted a lot of things. Would you mind looking at it and telling me what you think? I have nominated it already as I feel it is in good article condition, but I would like an opinion. I could brush up a few things if you see something. Canyouhearmenow 03:55, 3 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I have not been feeling very well. I think I had the flu and I certainly didn't feel like even looking at a computer! I have removed the bullets and put everything into a paragraph format. I hope that works. I also went through and polished up the reference section. I added a great deal of sourcing to this article and I sure hope that someone will appreciate it! LOL That was a lot of research. Talk to you later Canyouhearmenow 05:58, 3 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Ok..Ok.. If anyone should say that this article is not referenced, I will just kill over! I have spent almost 5 hours going through and referencing every single thing in this article! You know I may just have to give myself a Barnstar!!! I deserve it after this task! LOL just kidding. Anyway, will you look at it and tell me what you think? I think that even you may be impressed with the way this article has shaped up. I am very proud of it. Thanks Canyouhearmenow 14:26, 5 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hey Bud, I wanted to let you know that I have been working so hard on this Lucille Ball article. I have gone through and rewritten a lot of it and sourced it out the wazoo. If you get a chance can you take a look at it and tell me what you think? I am very proud of this one. I know you wont hold back, but plese be gentle as I am sensitive! LOL Canyouhearmenow 15:09, 13 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, I was planning on using the template for the ISBN, I just had not gotten around to it because the reviewing editor gave me a huge list of things to be done. I have been plugging away at it piece by piece. How do you like the header? I rewrote it and extended it. IMHO I think it looks pretty good. If it needs anything, I think it would probably be more on the I Love Lucy show and her being a major studio head. However, I think that developes in the article, so I did not put that in. I will if you think it needs it. But, all in all, what do you think about what I have done? Canyouhearmenow 22:59, 13 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

You are my teacher! Of course I would love it if you would help me. Anything you see the article needs, please feel free to edit it in a fashion you should see fit. I think the header is head on and I am not sure of anything I could do to make it any better. So, if you see something that would make it better, by all means have at it. Thank you Canyouhearmenow 23:20, 13 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I just reduced the death part of the header. I think that it reads better now without so much fluff. What do ya think? Canyouhearmenow 23:28, 13 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

If you would give this a peer review, I would be honored :) It is sooo close to FA, I need prose help Judgesurreal777 (talk) 16:37, 4 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Bibliomaniac15, and thank you for your kind and very unexpected offer to nominate me for adminship. This is not something I have sought, hence my surprise, but after taking some time to consider your offer I would be honoured to accept the nomination. Thank you once again, EyeSerene^talk 18:46, 4 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Please restore this article you have deleted twice now and save us from all the unnecessary bureaucracy. Catchpole (talk) 20:40, 4 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

A quick note; I will probably support but I suggest you don't transclude with existing supports. I believe that has caused trouble in the past. I haven't dug up the history because I wanted to drop you a quick note but can do so if you like. Mike Christie (talk) 23:58, 6 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It doesn't bother me either, but I wanted to make sure you were aware of the possibility. You caught me just as I was about to post a support, so I'll head over there now. Mike Christie (talk) 02:30, 7 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Biblimaniac, I wanted to apologize for my most recent edit to EyeSerene's RfA. I am of the opinion that the question about Cool Down Blocks is not a very useful question, and so I subverted the question. By doing so, I caused at least one editor who otherwise would have supported to go neutral. Obviously, damaging EyeSerene's prospects was not my goal (I'm aware of what a good editor he is), and I should have been able to predict the consequence of my action. I really do feel awful for having made such a rash and immature mistake. --JayHenry (talk) 01:51, 7 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Not your fault at all Jay, you couldn't have known. · AndonicO ^Hail! 02:28, 7 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The issue had already been raised at WT:RFA and you are absolutely correct that I should have discussed the issue there instead. I absolutely should have known better and I really am sorry. --JayHenry (talk) 02:35, 7 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Jay - while I was rather upset myself about users other than the candidate answering the question, I do agree that the type of questions being asked are well... (as Majorly put it) crap. I think we all understand where you are coming from, and an apology is really not needed. I see it as a learning experience, and who knows maybe a new addition to WP:RFA will ba added in reference to questions. Overall, it does not appear to have effected the RfA too much, and I really see no harm done. Tiptoety ^talk 02:38, 7 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Well said! Tiptoety ^talk 02:31, 7 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks User:Bibliomaniac15 I agree and I started the whole thing. To JH, Tiptoety gives great advice, look at this as a learning experience. ShoesssS ^Talk 02:54, 7 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for the comments. Did you see anything else that needed addressing to this article that I missed? What is the normal procedure for On Hold? I was referring to my FA knowledge when saying the article is On Hold. I can go back and change it to failed if this article is not complete enough. Lastly, I used the GA template, but the after effect looks bad? Any quick tips to ensure it looks good when I use it? Thanks again, PGPirate 19:41, 7 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

OK I got it. fyi, I thought the wtf parameter ment On Hold. That is what i put for criteria 7. PGPirate 20:14, 7 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I have been watching (watchlist) that article for some time now. So, do you want me to remove the nomination?--RyRy5 ^{Got something to say?} 01:44, 8 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Oh. I'm very sorry, I didn't know that it was growing to be a better article. When do you think I should nominate it again? Any comments?--RyRy5 ^{Got something to say?} 01:47, 8 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I removed the duplicate voter, User:Spencer. This is OK, right?--RyRy5 ^{Got something to say?} 02:10, 8 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yes she did. She already taught me what to do if that happens again. Thanks.--RyRy5 ^{Got something to say?} 02:49, 8 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I am not sure to contact regarding this matter, but I saw that you are a pretty active wikipedian and so I thought I would ask. I am very tired of the crappy search engine that wikipedia uses. Is there not some way to mimic google's search where if you misspell something it asks you "Did you mean _____?" or displays close matches to what you are trying to say? If I am unsure how to spell something, it come back blank and then I search google, it finds what I mean, I click yes and then the wikipedia entry comes up on google. Is there anything that can be done?

Thanks —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.152.99.117 (talk) 15:19, 9 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Well, I guess I can get my own toast, if necessary. Good find with EyeSerene. Useight (talk) 00:26, 10 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hey bud, can you please look at this issue here [4]? These two editors are just at each other and each one are very close to committing the 3RR rule violation. One feels that the source is not appropriate and the other one continues to remove it. Maybe you can see how you feel about it.. Thanks Canyouhearmenow 01:28, 10 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Lawd, this one is a mess. Neither one of these editors want to move on this subject, so I just went ahead and found the reference and fixed it myself and told them both to just get off of each others bumpers. I even gave them the cite web template you gave me so that they could reference the source correctly and one of them continues to send the link to a site with an excel spread sheet. I think I have maintained civility pretty well, but you may want to check and make sure I have not fallen off the wagon or need a support group that promises a chip after a 12 step program!

Sounds great, and I just wanted to say thanks for being a great coach. As for the date of a nomination, I think I'd like to wait until June. That way, I can get in around 6 weeks of good experience in more Wikipedia-space work. Anyway, have a great day, and we'll keep in touch! Mastrchf91 (^t/_c) 21:43, 10 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hey Bud, I think if you look at my current history you will find out that I have been very busy lately. I have had to have the Lucille Ball page semi-protected. Someone put an unsubstantiated rumor on the David L Cook page and I had to have that removed by oversight. I have continually had to argue with one editor over a source they wanted to put on the Lucy page that was a subscription page and they just could not understand why I would not allow their edit to remain. So, I say that to say this. I have rewritten the header to the Lucy page and I would like for you to look at it and tell me what you tinhk. I took a totally different road with it, but I did it. I also merged the radio career into the main body like you had suggested. Is there any rest for the weary? Does wikipedia have a page that describes how this can be accomplished without being guilty of a POV or an administration violation? If so can you send me a link! LOL Thanks for everything bud Canyouhearmenow 03:08, 15 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Well I actually went on AIV to report the user and the Admin suggested that because they are an IP address that he semi protect the page. So, it was the admin that did that, not me. As far as all of the editing, I am ok with all of that. It is just the little things that people throw at you that keeps you moving along. I am not really complaining as much as I am kidding around with you. Although it may sound like it! Canyouhearmenow 03:16, 15 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I thought I would drop by and let you know that we finally got Lucille Ball to GAstatus! I am so excited and proud. I really worked hard on this one. I want to thank you for all of your help and patience while i fumbled around with it! You are a true Wiki friend! Canyouhearmenow 03:31, 16 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Do you think you could be brave enough to help me through another one? I am thinking about tackling the Bob Hope or Jerry Lewis article. I think I will look at them and see which one would be the easiest to polish up first. Canyouhearmenow 03:55, 16 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

You should see User:Gtstricky/Admin coaching. I've made multiple additions to the process here. Cheers! Malinaccier Public (talk) 11:58, 15 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
