AfD nomination of D.W. the Picky Eater
[edit]An article that you have been involved in editing, D.W. the Picky Eater, has been listed for deletion. If you are interested in the deletion discussion, please participate by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/D.W. the Picky Eater. Thank you. Do you want to opt out of receiving this notice? JuJube (talk) 04:12, 30 September 2008 (UTC)
- The discussion is closed and both articles were redirected. If you want to dispute its closure, WP:DRV is the place to do it. JuJube (talk) 05:36, 13 October 2008 (UTC)
Your userpage
[edit]May I refer you to WP:OWN? When you press "Save Changes", you are releasing your contributions under the GFDL. In particular, this means that others are allowed to edit or otherwise use in any way your contributions. If you are not willing to let others edit your contributions, then you might be interested in another website. Thanks. RJaguar3 | u | t 18:39, 11 October 2008 (UTC)
Your recent edits
[edit]Hi there. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. If you can't type the tilde character, you should click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you! --SineBot (talk) 18:57, 11 October 2008 (UTC)
Articles
[edit]These articles don't belong to you, they're public, anyone can edit them. I only kept reverting your edits becuase i felt that articles don't need theme song sections, and when they do have theme song sections it doesn't include the lyrics. You're acting really childish about this, i'm afraid that you're getting way to personal about this. If you keep this up than you may be blocked. Elbutler (talk) 20:44, 11 October 2008 (UTC)
- I didn't delete your D.W. picky eater page, i don't have the power to delete pages, only admins can do that. And your page wasn't deleted, it was redirected to List of Arthur episodes. Also i didn't "find" your pages, i edit this wiki too. And i can edit every tv article because this is a free will site, if you follow the rules. And i'm not being rude to you, i'm trying to settle this feud. Elbutler (talk) 21:37, 11 October 2008 (UTC)
- I didn't redirect your Helen Loraine page, User:TexasAndroid (Helen Lorraine) and User:Sandstein (D.W. the Picky eater) redirected your pages. Thanks for apologizing, i hope we can be friends. Elbutler (talk) 21:54, 11 October 2008 (UTC)
peep
[edit]No i didn't, Citicat did. P.S. Most of the time lyrics aren't included in articles becuase their copyrighted material. Elbutler (talk) 21:21, 12 October 2008 (UTC)
Seafood
[edit]I don't eat seafood, and why do you want some seafood recipies any way? Elbutler (talk) 16:45, 13 October 2008 (UTC)
Picky eater
[edit]Your page was not deleted but instead turned into a redirect, follow this link and i'll show you. But it was nominated for deletion on September 30th 2008. Elbutler (talk) 17:03, 13 October 2008 (UTC)
Sub-page
[edit]Making a sub-page is easy, here's a link to where you can create your page User:Simulation12/D.W. the Picky Eater. Elbutler (talk) 22:36, 13 October 2008 (UTC)
Picture
[edit]I don't have a picture, i don't upload photos of myself. Also how i "found you" as a user, each user has a list of edits that they've made called their "user contributions". And yes we can be friends on YouTube. Elbutler (talk) 11:24, 14 October 2008 (UTC)
Synopsis
[edit]Oh, so that's what you mean't about synopsis, we don't usually seperate the first 2 minutes, and the rest of the episode. That's why we kept talking to you about your article. Also articles usually have dialougue seperate from the plot (in the qoutes section). Elbutler (talk) 16:41, 14 October 2008 (UTC)
Arthur
[edit]I didn't remove the season 12 section, and why do you keep blaming me anyway?? next time check the history of pages (the button next to discussion that says history) before you accuse someone. And i keep making typos becuase my keyboard is broken. Elbutler (talk) 18:00, 14 October 2008 (UTC)
October 2008
[edit]Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, talk pages are meant to be a record of a discussion; deleting or editing legitimate comments, as you did at User talk:Doug, is considered bad practice, even if you meant well. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you.⋙–Berean–Hunter—► ((⊕)) 21:17, 14 October 2008 (UTC)
- Please do not add pages from your user space to navigational templates as you did to Template:Arthur that are used in article space. You have been reverted. If you would like to discuss this please do so on the template talk page. User pages are not allowed in navboxes and categories designed for articles. This was explained to you in an edit summary yesterday...so that makes your edit here today seem intentionally defiant to Wikipedia guidelines & standards. Thank you, ⋙–Berean–Hunter—► ((⊕)) 19:09, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
- Your edits here, and here, show that you are either openly defiant or really dense. The next time you do it, I will take you to WP:ANI for being disruptive. The user account you created
here(just deleted) and the category Category:Arthur episodes appear to be disruptive as well. Please explain your actions. ⋙–Berean–Hunter—► ((⊕)) 03:50, 21 October 2008 (UTC)

upload
[edit]I don't know how to describe uploading files, why don't you ask someone else? Elbutler (talk) 21:19, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
Re:Yikes
[edit]I went to work today, i can't stay on the computer 24/7. Elbutler (talk) 21:58, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
Elbutler
[edit]I apologize. As for how i found the information, the longer you stay editing wikipedia, the more tricks you pick up from asking others questions. Elbutler (talk) 12:16, 17 October 2008 (UTC)
Job
[edit]I can't tell you about my personal life. As for your questions, when people redirect pages, the page's old information is still in the database, just hit the history button and go to a time beor it was redirected, then you can copy this info and make a sub-page (highlight the page, right click the highlighted info, hit copy, and later on the sub-page hit paste). Elbutler (talk) 16:17, 17 October 2008 (UTC)
True, 310 can be used in Burnaby, but no numbers of that area code will be based there - see Area codes 310 and 424. Dl2000 (talk) 23:13, 17 October 2008 (UTC)
re:WordGirl
[edit]It's not that you CAN'T add the tag, but it's considered good form to explain yourself on the talk page and to provide suggestions as to how you think it can be fixed. Anyone can stick a tag on something to say "oh, I think there's a problem", but unless you can provide a possible starting point for a solution, it's basically meaningless. Gladys J Cortez 12:42, 20 October 2008 (UTC)
Also, this is from the guidelines for article size:
Do not take precipitous action the very instant an article exceeds 32 KB overall. There is no need for haste, and the readable prose size should be considered separately from references and other overhead. Discuss the overall topic structure with other editors. Determine whether the topic should be treated as several shorter articles and, if so, how best to organize them. Sometimes an article simply needs to be big to give the subject adequate coverage. Certainly, size is no reason to remove valid and useful information.
So just because it's 32kb long, that doesn't mean it's "too long". It's still quite readable. Gladys J Cortez 12:50, 20 October 2008 (UTC)
User page
[edit]I have deleted your user page, as it's sole purpose seemed to be to call out another editor. This is considered an attack page, please do not recreate it. --Smashvilletalk 14:33, 20 October 2008 (UTC)
Truman and the Deep Blue Sea
[edit]Please stop creating episode pages for tv series, it'll just end up like D.W. the Picky Eater. You already have a sub-page for this article. Elbutler (talk) 19:24, 20 October 2008 (UTC)
October 2008
[edit]Regarding your comments on User:Sarahssilks: Please see Wikipedia's no personal attacks policy. Comment on content, not on contributors. Personal attacks damage the community and deter users. Note that continued personal attacks will lead to blocks for disruption. Please stay cool and keep this in mind while editing. Thank you. -- ArglebargleIV (talk) 03:42, 21 October 2008 (UTC)
Proposed deletion of Martha Speaks merchandise
[edit]A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Martha Speaks merchandise, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}}
notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. Gladys J Cortez 08:06, 21 October 2008 (UTC)
Martha Speaks Merchadise
[edit]I'm not doing anythng to the Seasickness, i was fixing a link. Also i have suggested that we merge your article with Martha Speaks. I know you meant well but the "Songs of Toil" CD wasn't real, it was a spoof ad (When you advertise something that isn't true just to be funny). Elbutler (talk) 11:44, 21 October 2008 (UTC)
- I noticed that you said you were getting spam messages, what exactly did these messages say?? Also i know that being the victim of vandalism is hard, but the important thing to remember is that to just ignore it, and to let the admins handle it, instead of sending out personal remarks. Elbutler (talk) 19:33, 21 October 2008 (UTC)
Speedy deletion of Dallas Jokic
[edit]Please refrain from introducing inappropriate pages such as Dallas Jokic, to Wikipedia. Doing so is not in accordance with our policies. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}}
to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. MisterWiki talking! :-D - 18:08, 22 October 2008 (UTC)
Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but your recent edit removed content from Kimee Balmilero. When removing text, please specify a reason in the edit summary and discuss edits that are likely to be controversial on the article's talk page. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the text has been restored, as you can see from the page history. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia, and if you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. Your edit to this page broke the infobox. Infoboxes are generated through templates, and so you can't just go changing the titles of the item (like Birthdate to "Born"--it breaks the link.
Please learn to use the Preview button so you can actually SEE the result of your changes before you save them. It will save a lot of cleanup work for others. Thanks. Gladys J Cortez 18:59, 22 October 2008 (UTC) Gladys J Cortez 18:59, 22 October 2008 (UTC)
Speedy deletion of "Emily Elizabeth Howard"
[edit]A page you created, Emily Elizabeth Howard, has been tagged for deletion, as it meets one or more of the criteria for speedy deletion; specifically, it is about a real person, group of people, band, club, company, organisation, or web content, but does not indicate why its subject is important or significant.
You are welcome to contribute content which complies with our content policies and any applicable inclusion guidelines. However, please do not simply re-create the page with the same content. You may also wish to read our introduction to editing and guide to writing your first article.
Thank you. --RedHillian | Talk 21:27, 22 October 2008 (UTC)
Speedy deletion of The Martha Speaks ad
[edit]A tag has been placed on The Martha Speaks ad, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to have no meaningful content or history, and the text is unsalvageably incoherent. If the page you created was a test, please use the sandbox for any other experiments you would like to do. Feel free to leave a message on my talk page if you have any questions about this.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}}
to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay.

AfD nomination of Martha Speaks merchandise
[edit]I have nominated Martha Speaks merchandise, an article you created, for deletion. I do not think that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Martha Speaks merchandise. Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time.

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Motion sickness (nausea from movement), and it appears to be very similar to another wikipedia page: Motion sickness. It is possible that you have accidentally duplicated contents, or made an error while creating the page— you might want to look at the pages and see if that is the case.
This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page. CorenSearchBot (talk) 00:31, 23 October 2008 (UTC)
Welcome to Wikipedia. The recent edit you made to Motion sickness has been reverted, as it appears to be unconstructive. Use the sandbox for testing; if you believe the edit was constructive, ensure that you provide an informative edit summary. You may also wish to read the introduction to editing. Thank you. DARTH PANDAtalk 00:33, 23 October 2008 (UTC)
The recent edit you made to Motion sickness constitutes vandalism, and has been reverted. Please do not continue to vandalize pages; use the sandbox for testing. Thank you. DARTH PANDAtalk 00:34, 23 October 2008 (UTC)
Removing tags
[edit]You cannot remove tags from an article like that. Just because the tag is not there, it does not make the problem go away. I have replaced the tag and it needs to stay there. Do not remove any more tags. Thank you. Gladys J Cortez 00:42, 23 October 2008 (UTC)
Okay, look.
[edit]I understand that you're in elementary school and you're fairly new here to WP, and I don't want to bite your head off by blocking you for things you don't understand. But you are making a LOT of mistakes and causing a LOT of people to have to clean up after you. For example:
- Creating articles about voice actors from all the PBS cartoons, or ads, or merchandise that doesn't exist yet. That is called "cruft" around here--it means "stuff that is of no possible interest to anyone except fans of the show". It gets deleted almost without conversation.
- Copying articles and giving them different names, then creating redirects to your article--If you were looking for info about motion sickness, THAT is the term you'd search for. NOT "Motion sickness (nausea from movement)". That's not a phrase that jumps into peoples' minds to search for. If anything, YOUR article should be redirected to "Motion sickness", NOT the other way around which is what you did. (and I see another user has already taken care of it.)
- Removing enormous chunks of information like you did at "Motion sickness". What, doesn't all that other information matter???
- Some of your talk page comments show quite a bit of attitude, which is not going to do you any good here. Remember--just like we all were once, you're still new here. Most people here have accumulated a lot more experience than you've currently got, and know more about Wikipedia policies and guidelines just because they've been here long enough to learn. Which you haven't, not in less than a month (Sept 24-Oct 22 isn't long enough to learn it all.)Would you go into the teachers' lounge at your school and start scolding the teachers and telling them what they can and can't do? When you get about two or three years of experience here, maybe then you can scold and boss--but surely not now. I suggest you go back and read all those pages in the Welcome message above--that's a good start.
As I said, I don't want to bite your head off but it would be a REALLY EXCELLENT IDEA to slow down, learn more about what does or does not deserve an article, and how people here interact. If you keep on the way you're going, I can almost guarantee that you're going to end up blocked. You don't want that, I don't want that, I don't think ANYONE wants that. Just some friendly advice....Gladys J Cortez 00:57, 23 October 2008 (UTC)
This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Move Your Body (Hi-5 song), and it appears to include a substantial copy of http://www.tsrocks.com/h/hi5_texts/move_your_body.html. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences.
This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page. CorenSearchBot (talk) 01:05, 23 October 2008 (UTC)
Temporarily blocked
[edit]You have made a whole bunch of questionable edits in the last few hours... removing content from Motion sickness, a bunch of redirects, etc.
These may be mistakes, or you may be in over your head on understanding how Wikipedia works - we ask that you discuss serious changes on article talk pages, and that inexperienced editors not make serious structural changes to articles and so forth.
Because of the situation over the last few hours, I have placed a short term (3 hour) block on your editing Wikipedia articles. Hopefully this block will let you know that you've gone too far with some recent edits. If you slow down and talk more, and listen to some of the people who reported problems on your talk page here, you should be able to edit in the future without causing problems.
Thanks. Georgewilliamherbert (talk) 02:04, 23 October 2008 (UTC)

Simulation12
[edit]For quite some time i've been lying to you about how helpful you are to keep you from getting your feelings hurt, so here's the truth. When i first met you were a stubborn kid who liked to boss around adults, well wikipedia doesn't work like that, so either so you start doing some helpful and fix that attitude you will keep be blocked and your articles will keep being deleted. Also, don't redirect other peoples articles, but get mad and try boss someone else when they edit your pages, this is a being a hypocrite, and you can be accused of a being vandal.
