Thanks for your message. In the latest months I've created pages for Bob Sinclar, Modjo, Joey Negro, Snap!, Ron Carroll. I've also made some updates to Boris Dlugosch, Rui Da Silva, Blaze and Jason Nevins. If you feel you can add anything to them, feel free.

Also, please take a look at the musician article requests and see if you recognize any name. I intend to do some of them later, especially the deep house artists. --Pc13 08:29, 17 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Dance Artists

Please watch your stubs! Hi Robert, please pay attention when placing solo artists into categories, for example if you were to put Mariah Carey into "female singers" you need to type it as "Category:Female singers|Carey, Mariah" so that the name is properly alphabetized on the category page. Thanks! -- eo 13:44, 23 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Radio stations

According to WikiProject Radio Stations, WXXX (AM) is the preferred format for AM radio station articles. There's no such thing as a radio station with an "-AM" suffix; all AM radio stations are unsuffixed. If you disagree, could you please discuss it with them rather than creating or moving existing articles to titles that aren't in accordance with the current policy? Thanks. Bearcat 19:30, 27 September 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Request for edit summary

Hi. I am a bot, and I am writing to you with a request. I would like to ask you, if possible, to use edit summaries a bit more often when you contribute. The reason an edit summary is important is because it allows your fellow contributors to understand what you changed; you can think of it as the "Subject:" line in an email. For your information, your current edit summary usage is 1% for major edits and 100% for minor edits. (Based on the last 150 major and 27 minor edits in the article namespace.)

This is just a suggestion, and I hope that I did not appear impolite. You do not need to reply to this message, but if you would like to give me feedback, you can do so at the feedback page. Thank you, and happy edits, Mathbot 04:06, 25 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] WMWB-LP Logo

Hello, I have a WMWB TV logo you can upload to the WMWB-LP page. I don't know how to add it to the page but I did upload it to this website. Here is the logo: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Image:WMWB_logo.jpg

[edit] Toronto radio templates

If you're going to put the Toronto AM and FM templates on stations in Oshawa and Hamilton as well as stations in Toronto, then could you please not put the Category:Radio stations in Toronto category on the template? Stations in Hamilton and Oshawa don't belong in the Toronto category, because they're not in Toronto, but putting the category on the template automatically applies the category to every article the template is on. Thanks. Bearcat 18:51, 6 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] RN

Since RN is Australia-wide, it's a bit pointless adding templates for radio stations in every major city that RN is also broadcasted in. We already have a list of radio stations in Australia. Perhaps you might like to make a template consisting of Australia-wide radio stations? Dysprosia 03:35, 8 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Your RfA

I don't want to sound like a big evil bandit here but from what I've read, you really don't need admin powers on Wikipedia. You might want to withdraw your nomination, take a few months, read the guide to adminship and try again. Thanks for running though, I think you're a great editor but I don't think you quite understand what an admin does -- Tawker 21:08, 18 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Request for Adminship

It is my regretful task to inform you that I have closed your request for adminship early as unlikely to achieve consensus. Please do not be discouraged; a number of users have had their first RfA end without consensus, but have been promoted overwhelmingly in a later request. Please continue to make outstanding contributions to Wikipedia, and consider requesting adminship again in the future. You may find Wikipedia:Guide to requests for adminship helpful in deciding when to consider running again. If I can be of any help to you, please do not hesitate to ask. Essjay ^{Talk • Contact} 03:05, 19 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Edit summaries

Hey Robert, I was just going to leave this on your RfA before I saw Essjay closed it. I'll repost it word-for word in what I was going to say:

• Comment: Check Wikiproject User scripts for a tool that will get you in the practice of using an edit summary. While a little annoying at first, I've checked mathbot a few times, and my summary usage has been at 100%. You have to understand that I typically don't oppose, and I feel bad about doing so, but I'd like you to get acquainted with the community a bit more. Forgive me for being a metapedian to your exopedian, but I guess that's just how RfAs are nowadays. Good luck to you in the future and let me know if I can help at all, Mysekurity^[m!] 03:06, 19 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Canadian FM stations

For your information : all Canadian FM stations have an -FM suffix to their call sign, unless they are extremely low-power stations with a VF- seminumeric call sign. Moving articles to titles without the -FM suffix does not conform to Wikipedia naming conventions and is incorrect in any case. — ABCXYZ (talk) 23:07, 9 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] The Groove Divas

In case you hadn't noticed, The Groove Divas has been proposed for deletion. NickelShoe (Talk) 15:12, 14 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Radio Monitor

Hey that's cool - the Billboard issue date and song didn't match, that's all. Wasn't sure if the date or song was incorrect and as I'm a Billboard.com/Billboard.biz subscriber that's what I had to go on. -- eo 10:41, 21 June 2006 (UTC)

Hi again - just curious as to what issue date you're going by for the Hot Dance Airplay article. If Billboard has Saturday issue dates, and the 06/24 issue has Madonna at number one, wouldn't the issue date be 07/01 for Nick Lachey taking over? For example, when Billboard issues its next round of charts (Hot Dance Airplay included), the website and print editions will not be dated June 25. -- eo 17:44, 21 June 2006 (UTC)

I figured it was something along those lines. I was going to suggest we decide on which issue date to go with, but your suggestion of sticking with Billboard makes sense. Best to keep all Billboard-related articles uniform, right? Thanks.... July 1 sounds best for the Lachey thingy. Talk to ya later! -- eo 18:41, 21 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Good job on the tv shows

Just wanted to say "good job" on all the follow-ups you've added to the tv pages I've worked on. SnappingTurtle 14:07, 23 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Template:Toronto FM

Hey, good job on the Toronto FM template, the colour is pretty good. What do you think about moving this template to Template:GTA FM? It is for radio stations in the Greater Toronto Area afetr all, not just Toronto itself. Gimme a shout back. --Reaper X _{→T →C} 22:00, 23 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Max Headroom Episodes Subcategory

Thank you for organizing an episodes subcategory for Max Headroom.--P Todd 23:51, 27 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Dance categories

Hi, the new Category:Dance musical groups is a good idea. Other genre categories split up groups and solo artists, so the dance categories should do the same. I have placed the new cat in the Category:Musical groups by genre and Category:Dance musicians categories as Category:Dance/Club music artists is being merged into Category:Dance musicians. --musicpvm 22:59, 3 August 2006 (UTC)

Also, based on previous discussions including Category talk:Categories named after people, most users have agreed that the only category that should be placed in an eponymous category is Category:Categories named after people or one of its subcategories. So for eponymous categories for musicians and musical groups (for example Category:Ace of Base), the only category that should be included is Category:Categories named after musicians. All other categories should be placed in the actual article. Thanks. --musicpvm 00:46, 4 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks for your comments: it is a new tag.

Thanks for your comments regarding {{catdiffuse}}. It is a new tag: I was cleaning up the Politics section and I noticed that the users and myself have a nasty habit for using general categories. My WP:INT project can apply to categories too: better subcategories to integrate content and reduce redundancy. Now if more people will go along with it, that would help things. Cwolfsheep 23:05, 3 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] R&R (magazine)

I thought that I would drop you a line , as I was bold and moved the R&R article from your name R&R(Magazine) since it is standard to have a space before the parentheses. I love what you wrote in the article!

I see we have several things in common, including Wisconsin and an interest in electronic music. Very Cool! --Royalbroil 04:44, 5 August 2006 (UTC)

Hi! I have a question. In the first sentence of the R&R (magazine) article, there is the word "cumes". I think either a replacement word or a definition of that would be appropriate -- I'd do it, but I'm not quite sure what it is supposed to mean myself. Thanks! -- ArglebargleIV 22:17, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

Thank you!! -- ArglebargleIV 22:56, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Wikipedia is not censored

Thank you for your attempts to improve Wikipedia. However, I would like to remind you that Wikipedia is not censored for minors, not even for profanity or pornography. You are welcome to remove clearly offensive material or inappropriate obscenities if they were added as vandalism, but please do not remove/censor profanities or remove/disclaim sexually explicit material or links that are relevant to the article. In the meantime, please be bold and continue contributing to Wikipedia. Thank you! -- Selmo 00:30, 19 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Natalie Reid

Please do not remove a wikify tag when the article clearly needs to be wikified. Thank you. Ohyeahmormons 00:52, 12 September 2006 (UTC)

What I mean by wikified is that it needs to be in a proper form of an entry. The information isn't bad, but it needs to be edited properly like an article. The tag is there so one of the more experienced users can edit it correctly. :) Ohyeahmormons 01:43, 12 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Vanished

Excellent--thanks for adding the categories. I'm not good at that sort of thing. I am surprised by how little action the Vanished pages have gotten. I've tried to put in place a framework that others can augment, but a lot of work can still be done. Thanks! Transcendentalstate 12:54, 13 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Signature

You probably shouldn't re-direct your signature to Robert Moore (politician). Ohyeahmormons 20:45, 17 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Bodyrox

Ain't that always the way things go around here?  :) I have honestly thought of motioning to enhance the instructions on a new page with a great big "STOP BEFORE PROCEEDING" warning. Of course, it would be ignored, so here we sit. Oh, well. - Lucky 6.9 06:32, 19 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Categories

Hello. Please do not add categories for channels broadcasting Six Degrees, there is a consensus at the tv wikiproject only to add categories for the original network or co-producers, et cetera, on television articles. thanks/Fenton, Matthew Lexic Dark 52278 Alpha 771

[edit] Fashion models

Shouldn't we make a seperate category for fashion models from other types of models?? It helps the viewer see the difference between fashion models and glamour models, foot models, etc.. Lil Flip246 21:58, 2 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Weeeird

My mistake, that was a really weird mixup. Let me know if something like that happens again - my apologies. JoeSmack ^Talk(p-review!) 18:54, 6 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Television series by network

I don't know if you're still doing this,[1] but please don't categorize television series by any network other than the one for which they were originally produced, which will include more than one only if it was a joint production (such as Rome). Rerun airings or international broadcasts in secondary markets are not definitive of the subject, compared to the network that ordered its production and can or did order its cancellation. Not limiting them in this manner also would inevitably result in a flood of dozens of categories on every TV series article that has been shown globally at one time or another. See the WikiProject Television[[2]] on this, as well as a prior discussion showing consensus for this narrow application. Apologies if this is now a moot point. Postdlf 01:25, 17 November 2006 (UTC)

Sorry, didn't notice until just now the section above titled "categories" that already addressed this issue. Postdlf 01:27, 17 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] link to British

Hello, when you want to link to the article about something British, please do not link to British, as that is a disambiguation page (which nothing should be linked to). Instead link to the one of the options found on that page such as United Kingdom or Great Britain by writing out [[United Kingdom|British]] or [[Great Britain|British]]. Regards, Jeff3000 20:36, 21 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Daytime TV ratings

I have nominated the article you edited in the past, "Daytime TV ratings," for deletion per Wikipedia policy (mainly Wikipedia not being a place for lists of statistics and nothing else).

[edit] Categories for fictional family relationships

Hi there, I wanted you to know what happened to things like Category:Fictional uncles, Category:Fictional mothers, and the like that you created recently. You're probably not aware that there were discussions just last month to delete this sort of categorization; you can see the discussions at Wikipedia:Categories_for_deletion/Log/2006_November_20#Category:Fictional_parents and Wikipedia:Categories_for_deletion/Log/2006_November_17#Category:Fictional_fathers. -- nae'blis 19:32, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Billboard links

Hi Robert, just letting you know I reverted your edit to the external links on the Hot Dance Club Play article. I don't think the links should point to Billboard.biz because users are required to pay for a subscription and have a login ID to view those pages, whereas on Billboard.com it is free and the link takes readers right to the chart page, even though it is not the full chart. If you disagree with this let me know - perhaps both could be listed? - eo 21:18, 18 December 2006 (UTC)

Hmmmmm interesting! Although it may be your subscription to R&R that allows you in, as they have merged. Try logging out of your R&R account and see if you can view charts on .biz. I'll do the same with my browser and see what happens. - eo 21:39, 18 December 2006 (UTC)

I guess so! I thought at first maybe there was a glitch with the sites, but I was also able (without loggging in) to go to R&R and look at the full charts and access all the info - and I've never subscribed to R&R. Makes me wonder now why I am paying for a subscription when just anyone can get the full listings... although I too get the print issues in the mail. Seems kind of silly to have the full charts on one site and abbreviated charts on another, don't you think? Go figure. - eo 21:56, 18 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Re:Ugly Betty

Hi Robert, thanks for letting me know about the changed circumstances of the Ugly Betty characters. I had a feeling when I closed the AfD that the article would eventually need to be split up if the series took off, so I have no problems with this being done. If there are any technical problems with moving articles that require admin tools to fix, please let me know and I'll do what I can. Cheers, Deathphoenix ʕ 04:18, 7 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Template 2

Is there anything you can tell me about {{2}}? It's a template you've used in all the "This user watches..." templates for Pittsburgh area and it was recently speedy deleted. Unfortunately that's forced all the templates you made (and any user who has it on his or her profile) to be placed for speedy deletion. All the templates seem to include it on the second line calling for a background color. I removed it from one as a test [3] and it seemed to work and not affect the template at all. Can you take a look at it and see if you understand what's going on? I'm at a loss, Metros232 23:07, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Ugly Betty

That's not explaining why I did it - that information is in the edit summary (where it should be) - the message in the links section is for the future addition of links. You are confusing the two. Anyway my explaination was entirely in keeping with wikipedia policy and practice. I notice you edit a lot of UB pages - make sure you are aware of WP:OWN. --Charlesknight 10:30, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] WKBT

Hi Robert,

You recently added affiliation details on Wikipedia's article for WKBT, a television station in La Crosse, Wisconsin. You added comments on secondary affiliations with NBC and DuMont. Do you have a source for this information? Someone (not I) has tagged the information with a (citation needed) tag, and I'm hoping to be able to verify the information you've provided, so that it can be kept in the article, and so that I can use the information on the List of former DuMont Television Network affiliates.

[edit] speedy delete, no assertion of notability

A tag has been placed on MCV Broadband, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article seems to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable, that is, why an article about that subject should be included in Wikipedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert notability may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is notable, you may contest the tagging. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page (below the existing db tag) and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm its subject's notability under the guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Alan.ca 19:39, 5 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Jowharah Jones

That is fine, but it is still in no way clear how she meets WP:BIO criteria in the article, so that would be something to work on here. I've also removed Personal Interests per WP:TRIV. Cheers!--Isotope23 12:06, 7 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] PWL Radio

A tag has been placed on PWL Radio, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because it is an article about a certain website, blog, forum, or other web content that does not assert the importance or significance of that web location. Please read our criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 7 under Articles, as well as notability guidelines for websites. Please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources which verify their content.

Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait a while for you to add contextual material, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on Talk:PWL Radio.

[edit] The Fighting Irish (30 Rock episode)

I reverted your edit to the above article regarding Molly Shannon's character as speculation. While I think that you may have a point, it is still ambiguous enough to where we would need a source to say that is what the writers were going for with that joke. They may have also been using a comically-Irish Catholic name, too. youngamerican (ahoy hoy) 03:23, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
