[edit] Dalek on FARC

Happy New Year, Terence!

Do you have any ideas on how to ensure that Dalek passes the FARC? I've done a substantial amount of citation work since it was put on FAR, but it seems that it's not satisfying the vocal objectors. I don't want to "stack the deck", but I honestly think the article is a good one and I'm at a bit of a loss as to what to do to improve it further. —Josiah Rowe (talkcontribs) 19:13, 31 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] JKD

Hello Terrence,

I am having a problem with a user over at Jeet Kune Do actually really just an IP number rather than a user. He keeps adding a non legitimate instructor. I've added a paragraph on the "talk" page describing that articles should be cited and reference as much as possible and that wiki editors need to ensure the information is accurate so we don't become a rumor mill. Anyway he keeps adding a "Carter Hargrave" who I have deleted in the past. I've researched this guy and he is a sham who just wanted Dan Inosanto to promote him and claims to be a "Grand Master". No record of the guy before early 90's?? The user is 64.149.40.27. Is there a way of blocking this guy temp until a long term fix is implemented? Can you help?? Suggestions?? Thanks FrankWilliams 14:35, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks!

Hey there. I'd been meaning to start contributing to some of the more overlooked areas of Doctor Who info for a while, but I've been daunted by the quality of what already exists. So I'd like to thank you for tweaking my contributions to the article on the Nightmare of Black Island, transforming my rookie additions into professional contributions. I greatly appreciate it! —Steffan Alun

[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:Dw2005logo.png)

Thanks for uploading Image:Dw2005logo.png. I notice the 'image' page currently specifies that the image is unlicensed for use on Wikipedia 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. Durin 20:12, 6 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] I need help from an admin

You are the only good admin that I trust, and I need help from an admin. Recently, I filled out a nomination for User:Val42, and User:Trödel said that I was not qualified to nominate. We got into a minor dispute over this, which started on Val42's talk page and Trödel moved it to our personal talk pages. Eventually I conceded that he had a valid point, and I conceded the argument, but he left me a comment after that that threatened both myself and Val42. He threatened to oppose Val42 simply because of our personal dispute, and he threatened to block me for trolling. I was not trolling by any stretch of the imagination. You can see the dispute on all three of our user pages in better depth. I'm scared that he is going to block me for an offense that I did not do and I need help. I don't want this to happen. If you can help in any way I would appreciate it.TheGreenFaerae 08:47, 7 January 2007 (UTC)

I just found out that he removed an addition to an article that was disputed and resolved some time ago. I believe this is a covert personal attack, as it was his first edit after threatening me, and he had no previous history on the page. the page in question is Chloe Sullivan.

[edit] Doctor Who Review links

First of all, a friendly "=)" because I'm really not intending to sound pissy... But basically I saw a couple of people had added links to reviews on Who sites (including The Massacre (cold, cold grave etc. ;)) and maybe a couple of others that are, well, by me [This http://www.whoniverse.org/reviews/W.php] = [this http://counter-x.net/doctor_who/reviews/010305.html, etc.]), so I'm slightly confused to see my reviews bracketed as 'non-notable' when they've received good feedback and been good enough for Outpost Gallifrey back when I submitted some of them... I get that you can't just have every lunatic with a out-of-the-box Geocities page banging links in, and my intention wasn't to spam, merely just add some of the reviews I've done that weren't on OPG/Whoniverse. Apologies for any wrong-doing, and cheers for your time.

Enjoy your vacation, Tom Prankerd 11:16, 7 January 2007 (UTC)

    • Cheers for your reply, makes sense :)

[edit] Template:Tenthdoctorcompanions

Hi, someone created the above template, and I've made a couple of comments on its talkpage (it's been added to the Martha Jones article most recently). I'd appreciate it if you'd take a look.--Rambutan (talk) 07:56, 27 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair-use image removed from your user page

Hello, Khaosworks. I've removed Image:Qmul.JPG from your user page, as it is a copyrighted, unlicensed image that is being used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. Unfortunately, by Wikipedia policies, no fair-use images can be used on user pages; please see the ninth item of the Wikipedia fair-use policy and Wikipedia:Removal of fair use images. This image has not been deleted from any articles. If you have any questions, please let me know. —Bkell (talk) 05:40, 26 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] WikiProject Doctor Who Award

The WikiProject Doctor Who Award
I hereby award Khaosworks with the WikiProject Doctor Who Award, for years of hard work maintaining and improving Doctor Who-related articles, and providing leadership in the WikiProject. —Josiah Rowe (talkcontribs) 03:06, 4 March 2007 (UTC)

If anyone deserves this, it's you. I know that you haven't been very active on Wikipedia lately, and I hope this is just due to busyness in real life. But since this WikiProject award was approved, I knew that you needed to be among its first recipients. —Josiah Rowe (talkcontribs) 03:06, 4 March 2007 (UTC)

Actually, World of Warcraft is almost certainly a better use of your time than following the most recent sad Wikidrama... —Josiah Rowe (talkcontribs) 06:10, 4 March 2007 (UTC)

An article by that name was deleted by a now retired admin and I was wondering if you would dump the article here please --SGCommand (talkcontribs) 13:01, 9 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Between the Lines (talk show)

Hi, I've placed a "{{prod}}" tag on Between the Lines (talk show), however I fully appreciate that you merely copied text placed elsewhere and weren't the original author. I've struggled to find any sources that link the talk show host to this title. Accordingly, I've prodded, but if you want to salvage this, I won't pursue to AfD. Addhoc 20:05, 18 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Mr chuzzlewit

I've got a slight suspicion that Mr chuzzlewit (talk contribs) is violating the policy at WP:COI, as I suggested to him on his talkpage and at Talk:Doctor Who: Original Television Soundtrack. His edits and edit summaries seem to suggest that he either is Murray Gold (very unlikely) or else an agent or close friend. He has only edited two articles (the soundtrack and Murray's own article), and then only to remove certain sentences which he claims are against policy (while then refusing to cite the said policies).

One edit summary said that "MG's publishers will shortly be in contact with Wikipedia", and a note on his talkpage said that information about MG's parentage and religion "are considered intrusive, tendentious and unjust by the LIVING persons concerned"; the use of the present tense and the lack of a qualifier such as "probably" is rather suspicious.

What do you suggest I do? Thanks,--Rambutan (talk) 18:33, 19 March 2007 (UTC)
