Request for editing the Total Drama pages

Hi, I want to make myself useful on Total Drama pages, particularly by improving the wikitables cosmetically. I invite you to correct me if I'm doing not right for you (sorry for my bad English).

Total Drama All-Stars Exclusive clips

Excuse me, but I'm not making this stuff up. Please tell me how you are not able to view those videos as they work perfectly. 96.237.242.157 (talk) 21:23, 19 February 2014 (UTC)

Never mind, I just saw the Total Drama Wiki and the information that you added is legit. Sorry for the confusion, it's cus it takes me days to find out new Total Drama info now that I'm banned from the Wikia network forever Giggett (talk) 21:26, 19 February 2014 (UTC)
It's fine, and I apologize if I came off a bit fistey. Just curious, though, how come you weren't able to view the videos? 96.237.242.157 (talk) 21:33, 19 February 2014 (UTC)
I'm on iPad, it says "sorry, this video is not available in your device". Stupid Steve Jobs for not putting Flash on iPad :P Giggett (talk) 21:34, 19 February 2014 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Total Drama All-Stars, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Friday Night Lights (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

TD season 7 announcement

Hi there.

When I noticed you put in the table for season 7, you said there was an announcement for it. Do you know whom confirmed this by any chance? 72.200.181.84 (talk) 17:05, 2 March 2014 (UTC)

Season 7, has not yet been announced Giggett (talk) 17:26, 2 March 2014 (UTC)

Ok..... then why did you put in an announcement box saying "for season 7 that will be announced next month"? 72.200.181.84 (talk) 22:01, 2 March 2014 (UTC)

Cus a new season always gets announced 15 months before its original airdate, so if Season 7 airs on June 2015, then we might get an announcement as early as March or April this year Giggett (talk) 21:07, 4 March 2014 (UTC)

Guess Who

Hello old friend! RiMiEg007 (talk) 20:36, 4 March 2014 (UTC)

Hello, I see that you made it here on Wikipedia. This place is kinda like the Total Drama Wiki, only that 85% of the Total Drama stuff that you see in here was created by me. :P So yeah, this is basically my version of the Total Drama Wiki, with new character articles coming soon Giggett (talk) 21:04, 4 March 2014 (UTC)

Yeah, finally we can talk and edit freely! It's been rough at Wikia for the last week! TDIFan13 is bribing people to shut my wiki down, but thankfully my awesome little broth created a back-up wiki and copied all the nessisary data over to it. It's great talkin to ya again, I miss your bullshit :O

So far I made this awesome page, Drew Nelson (actor)! It's incomplete, but I can possibly finish it tomorrow! — Preceding unsigned comment added by RiMiEg007 (talkcontribs) 03:51, 5 March 2014 (UTC)

Reception

You need to put actual reception that the producers give out not fan based reception. 72.220.176.33 (talk) 03:54, 8 March 2014 (UTC)

Ello1

Hey man, you planning on going back to wikia? I know you say that you don't want to be banned by TDIFan13, but he won't ban you if you make sure that your new account doesn't act like you! plus I bet he will ban anyone that joins during TDPI, since he knows you will be there at that time. Just make a new account, make productive edits, and don't act like you, and you won't get banned there again. Getting banned on the same wiki 20 or 30 times isn't really something to be proud of, even though it is impressive! I hope to see and talk to you later man!

RiMiEg007 (talk) 03:45, 10 March 2014 (UTC)

Well, I did run the roleplay from TDI to TDPI so I'm basically done with that, and yes, I'll be back to join the Total Drama Wiki again in June but I won't tell you who I am Giggett (talk) 16:05, 10 March 2014 (UTC)
Yeah, Only 3 or 4 months till TDPI. — Preceding unsigned comment added by RiMiEg007 (talkcontribs) 15:07, 11 March 2014 (UTC)

REAL Reception

https://www.facebook.com/thefreshchannel/posts/10152161018323147?comment_id=29492635&offset=0&total_comments=4 If you scroll down to Jeremy Gasta's comment, Fresh TV gave out the REAL reception of the season. You're adding false information with no source. 205.153.156.221 (talk) 15:56, 10 March 2014 (UTC)

I undid your edit to TDAS as it was unsourced and WP:SYNTH. You should not be adding "citation needed" to your edit when you make it. Please find a reliable source to support your edit. Avoid WP:QUESTIONABLE sources. Thank you Jim1138 (talk) 18:39, 10 March 2014 (UTC)

My apology, but I blanked the reception section again. I did not realise that Fresh TV was TDAS which makes it a primary source. Please find a tertiary source for this kind of thing. See wp:RS. Thank you
Regarding Multiple Personality Disorder of Mike: From facebook Ashley Moore: I have my bachelor's in psychology and the way you portrayed MPD/DID is complete and utter... Jim1138 (talk) 01:38, 11 March 2014 (UTC)
I'm sorry, but I looked everywhere and I can't find any source that is not a blog or a site from the production company. People really just don't review this show as much as the other popular shows on TV. It's either blogs or Facebook, or no reception section at all. Giggett (talk) 05:37, 12 March 2014 (UTC)

Total Drama Wiki Sorority Blog

550720, from the Total Drama Wiki, mentioned you in a blog (http://totaldrama.wikia.com/wiki/User_blog:550720/Total_Drama_Winners_Speech:_Motivated_for_Canada%27s_Finale). 76.89.202.233 (talk) 03:17, 18 March 2014 (UTC)

BTW, are you going to vote for the TRUE winner of All-Stars, because everybody's voting. Here: http://www.teletoon.com/en/tv/totalDramaAllStars/ <--It's starting to bug me that a guy keeps winning "Total Drama". I understand Jesus Hernandez claimed that Alejandro was the Alternate Winner of TDWT, because I read about it elsewhere, but we need to give a woman a chance, after what they've been through last season, when Scott, a misogynistic jerk, got Dawn (an obvious fan favorite) eliminated. It's up to you, since you said that "you go by the Canadian Winners". 76.89.202.233 (talk) 00:20, 23 March 2014 (UTC)
Yes, I did voted for Zoey since Canada does indeed need a girl winner for once (I could care less about Dawn though), and if Zoey does win tomorrow then of course I will start accepting both finalists as winners, instead of just the Canadian one Giggett (talk) 15:38, 26 March 2014 (UTC)

Welcome Wagon!

Hi, my name is PuppyCatBree (I'm named after the web show, similar to Adventure Time's Fionna and Cake). I joined, so I can help the Total Drama community. I added a few pages to my watchlist, so I can make sure that when the TDAS finale airs on Thursday for Canada, I can make these changes as quickly as possible. PuppyCatBree (talk) 23:47, 25 March 2014 (UTC)

Well, thanks for joining, but seeing that most information about the finale was already added in here after it finished airing in the USA, it seems that the only TDAS edits that will be made on here on Thursday night are when Zoey wins, and means that many complex string of edits are going to be done so that the ranks on the elimination/character tables can host two winners, not just one. It will take a whole day to perform those edits, but I'm already planning on doing them myself sometime on Friday, but you are welcome to help if you want Giggett (talk) 23:52, 25 March 2014 (UTC)
At least you got the blog that my IP address left a few days ago, which was partially based off the Sorority Girl letter (even with the part where I said "I do not give a fart"). PuppyCatBree (talk) 01:03, 26 March 2014 (UTC)

Hey!

Hey Man! It's been a while! When are you gonna make a new Wikia account! Make sure you tell me when so I at least know it's you! And how bout' them TDPI Characters? They look a little but more normal now that we know what they'll really look like! RiMiEg007 (talk) 18:15, 27 March 2014 (UTC)

Wikia is not a priority right now, I already got enough work to do here on Wikipedia now that the TDPI characters are confirmed and that the TDAS finale is today in Canada, so got a lot of editing to do here. Besides, I don't like to spend my weekends on Wikia anymore, I got better stuff to do in the coming months. Giggett (talk) 18:23, 27 March 2014 (UTC)
Well that sucks to hear. Well, I hope Mike wins in Canada!
RiMiEg007 (talk) 18:26, 27 March 2014 (UTC)
Nah, Zoey is gonna win, and that's why I gotta do a whole lot of editing here on updating the winners before I leave tomorrow. Got a busy weekend coming up and no way I'm gonna be here seeing whatever edits go on so might as well perform those edits today in order to minimize the editing from other users while I'm gone. Giggett (talk) 18:29, 27 March 2014 (UTC)
Sounds like fun! :P
RiMiEg007 (talk) 18:33, 27 March 2014 (UTC)
Yeah, I gotta go to some stupid business meeting tomorrow in Laguna Beach, then on Saturday we gonna go to Disneyland, and on Sunday I gotta go to Newport Beach for my Grandma's Birthday. I don't even know if I'll have time to see the new Noah movie :P Giggett (talk) 18:38, 27 March 2014 (UTC)
Sounds like a busy weekend! My weekend plans are sleep in till 1 in the afternoon and Skype my girlfriend!
RiMiEg007 (talk) 19:11, 27 March 2014 (UTC)
Skype on Xbox One is better, trust me. You can talk to anyone, while still being able to play games without them knowing cus they only see your face :P Giggett (talk) 20:35, 27 March 2014 (UTC)

I'm sorry for the confusion, the image has been in the article for weeks now with no disputes, but apparently an IP user revoved the image for no reason (probably vandalism), so I just added it back. Please do not delete the image as it is still being used in articles. Giggett (talk) 14:10, 21 April 2014 (UTC)

Page considered for deletion

Hello Giggett, I'm sure you've seen me before, but we've never had a chance to talk one-on-one before. The reason I'm here is we've got quite a big problem, if you haven't noticed already the TD character page has been considered for deletion due to it being too sloppy, having too much unnecessary info, too much unsourced material, and I think the guy who marked it just hates Total Drama in general. Drastic times call for drastic measures; I think the only course of action now is we (everyone who regularly edits this page) need to cleanup the page and legitimately this time, if required might have to do a bit of mass deleting. Anything that's too 'in-universe' will have to go, and we have to find as many TD character sources as possible. I think a good place to start is Fresh’s TD character bio’s on their website. If you have any other suggestions; you know how to contact me (my wall or yours – I'll check both). Snowy66 (talk) 08:41, 7 May 2014 (UTC)

Well let them do what they want. I ain't editing that page until the deletion tag is gone or the article itself. In fact, they should go ahead and delete List of Ben 10 characters too since that article is worse than this one. Giggett (talk) 15:32, 7 May 2014 (UTC)
Hey I tried pointing that out, to him (almost every character page has those problems) but he just goes and shows me the Sesame Street character page which has sources (even though most of those are for actor information). And they should totally delete the Ben 10 page it's atrocious, especially since every character is listed on each season. Btw Giggett, if it does get deleted does this mean you'll reconsider coming back to TD wiki? Snowy66 (talk) 13:04, 8 May 2014 (UTC)
The Total Drama Wiki has their own problems which is none of my business. They have their own articles to take care of, while I have my articles to take care about here. I've been wanting to rewrite the whole characters article for a long time now and I think that this might finally be our chance to fix that article once in for all. Giggett (talk) 15:43, 8 May 2014 (UTC)
Alright, if that's what you want, then that's fine. Snowy66 (talk) 04:52, 9 May 2014 (UTC)

Season 7

Unless we get viable proof about this, it's a rumor and said evidence you're trying to use isn't even on Twitter which means it's a fake pictue. Don't put it up again without any concrete proof. 68.105.101.190 (talk) 17:05, 7 May 2014 (UTC)

What are you talking about, Season 7 has not even been ordered yet by the networks. I'm sure the producers have some sort of secret plans for future seasons, but nothing is set on stone until such a season is ordered first. Giggett (talk) 17:14, 7 May 2014 (UTC)
I've pointed out to the user that s/he is the one adding voice cast members with Twitter as a citation. —C.Fred (talk) 17:13, 7 May 2014 (UTC)
Look C.Fred, I'm sorry about that, thing is there a number of non-social media sources, but whenever I put the link on Wikipedia they just don't work. It's like Wikipedia has trouble with sites which end in ".php", I've tried really hard to find one which doesn't result in a faulty link but for now that's the best I can do.

FYI

Regarding [1], so if tomorrow AASHTO, the organization who actually assigns highway numbers in the US, decides it's approve as I-13, is it still imminent to be signed as I-11? I don't think the word imminent is appropriate until those decisions have been made. Dave (talk) 20:35, 16 May 2014 (UTC)

Did you see my edit? I replaced the word "imminent" with "present" since I-11 signs are already installed in the corridor. Giggett (talk) 21:10, 16 May 2014 (UTC)
Yeah, I think it reads better now. Cheers. Dave (talk) 01:02, 18 May 2014 (UTC)

You really need to go on the Total Drama Wiki, all the news is there. Giggett (talk) 18:59, 30 May 2014 (UTC)

So do you think we should add that to the Ridonculous Race since Julie Giles said she saw some of them on the lineup? 68.105.101.190 (talk) 17:46, 11 June 2014 (UTC)

It doesn't say who, so for now only Carrie is confirmed. Giggett (talk) 17:50, 11 June 2014 (UTC)

No, the Mal image isn't official. It's a fan created image (you can tell by the rounded corners on his body) and by using it on here, not only are you committing art thievery, but you're also using fan mad material on an official wikipedia article. Unless you want to show me where you got the Mal image, because I've never seen it posted on an official Total Drama website. --75.89.198.83 (talk) 19:35, 13 June 2014 (UTC)

Alright, I'll leave it be. If I were you, I'd just screenshot a full body picture of Mal from an episode of TDAS. All of the episode are in HD at watchcartoononline.com.

Images

Giggett, quick question. I see you've uploaded a lot of images, but when I try it I always get told off for not having appropriate rights or licence. How do you upload images like TD logos or cast without bringing up trouble with those guys? Snowy66 (talk) 11:20, 17 June 2014 (UTC)

I've been editing here for years. At first they kept asking me to delete the images since they were copyrighted, but after a while they just stopped asking and as you can see, almost all of the Total Drama images were uploaded by me (even the logos). Now every once in a while a vandal goes into an article and removes an image during a weekend (when I'm less active) and then I come back on Monday and get those lame "orphaned non-free deletion tags", but other than that, my images seems to stay online for a very long time. Giggett (talk) 15:38, 17 June 2014 (UTC)
Okay thanks. But is there anything special you do? What origin and rights do you list the images under when you upload? Snowy66 (talk) 02:14, 18 June 2014 (UTC)
Well if it's a logo image, then I add {{non-free logo}}, if it's a picture about the show in general, then I add in {{non-free television screenshot}}, if it's a picture about a character or many characters, then I add in {{non-free character}}, and finally if it's like a promotional image, or like a poster of a new season, then I add in {{non-free promotional}}. After that, you have to make sure that your images are not full resolution and are no bigger than 400 pixels wide. Later, you have to add a {{non-free use rationale}} and add all the settings like the source of the image and its purpose of use (See this for example). Later, you have to make sure you organize the image's setting into sections (kinda like a mini article), and oh yeah, don't forget to add in categories. After you do all of that, then make sure you do all of it on ONE EDIT and put in all the copyright info RIGHT WHEN YOU UPLOAD, not after, or else it gets tagged by admins. Hope that helps Giggett (talk) 16:09, 18 June 2014 (UTC)
Thank you Giggett, that was a huge help. Snowy66 (talk) 03:46, 19 June 2014 (UTC)

What did this edit really accomplish? The history is available to administrators on the page; a capture of the text without full attribution almost creates more problems (from the attribution and rights side) that it helps. —C.Fred (talk) 17:22, 6 August 2014 (UTC)

I reverted the edit right away so it won't violate any non-free media regulations or any other Wikipedia rules. The redirect is still there 205.214.232.90 (talk) 17:24, 6 August 2014 (UTC)
Yes, and in the page history, so is the WP:RUD violation. —C.Fred (talk) 17:37, 6 August 2014 (UTC)
Okay then, I guess you are right, so can you just go ahead and re-delete the article again since it was never supposed to be re-created anyway, but after this user did, I had no choice but to add the redirect, but I think it's better if we had no redirect at all and just delete the page again like it was when the AFD debate closed. So yeah, can you just delete the article? Giggett (talk) 17:38, 6 August 2014 (UTC)

Next Season for Total Drama

Do you know When the Season of Total Drama Come on ?

Total Drama's production schedule is currently on hold right now since the producers are still working on The Ridiculous Race right now. As soon as TRR is done, then Total Drama production will continue, so don't expect to see Season 6 of Total Drama until 2016-2017 at least. Giggett (talk) 19:40, 21 August 2014 (UTC)
Oh okay. It's Actually Season 7 not Season 6. Wikipedia is wrong. Season 6 already done.
Wrong. Season 5 was just finished while the next Total Drama season will be Season 6. However, TRR will not count as any Total Drama season since it's a completely new series, so TRR will be Season 1 om its own. Giggett (talk) 21:23, 26 August 2014 (UTC)
That Makes a lot of sense Common Sense. Anyways On the Next Season are they ever going to Show Sky's Boyfriend Keith. Because they never go to show him. I was wondering if they going to show him fighting against Dave for Sky on the Next Season Right ?
Yes, Sky and Dave's relationship in TDPI was left unresolved, so I'm sure that TDPI characters will appear in Season 6 so yeah, that Dave and Sky's friendship/rivalry will continue then so I'm sure they will start off fighting but then fall in love again soon enough. Also Brady appeared in Season 2 so I don't know why Keith didn't appear. Giggett (talk) 21:23, 26 August 2014 (UTC)

I will be Happy to see Season 6. coming out. It would be more funny if that had of Put Johnny Bravo and Brock on there. Johnny Bravo and Rodney would be fighting. But that's not going to happened. So How Many Characters are going to in Season 6 Maybe 21 or 20?

I checked the APTN website to see if Total Drama: Pahkitew Island was part of the network's schedule. It is not listed in the schedule, neither is it one of the shows included as part of APTN's schedule, and it is most likely that APTN did not co-produce TDPI either. I should also point out that the poster who included that info, Mewtwowimmer, has a history of putting false information in articles and has been repeatedly blocked for doing so. This doesn't look to be any different given his history. Creativity-II (talk) 04:01, 5 September 2014 (UTC)

Well APTN sponsored the series, so that counts as you can see here http://www.freshtvinc.com/blog/pahkitew-island-pronounce-pahkitew/
A quote from the link is "Total Drama: Pahkitew Island was produced by Fresh TV in association with the Aboriginal Peoples Television Network"

Don't Rodney See like that he is acting like Johnny Bravo and Brock From Pokémon ? Because they like Girls ? ? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:E:1980:532:5411:350C:48AF:1B1B (talk) 20:58, 5 September 2014 (UTC)

Total Drama Reception Sections

I apologize for hastily deleting the reception sections of many of the seasons, but at the same time, I must ask why they remain there, uncited for so many years. Ever since the first time I have viewed the page, they have been uncited with some occasional additions that are still uncited and, quite frankly, this isn't a good way of having a critical reception section.

With the exception of TDI, the sections all rely too heavily on fan reception and user reviews on various sites, which is not a reliable source. From my knowledge of the show's reviews, the only ones that I have seen are two reviews of the DVD of Total Drama Island and a negative review from "The Age" that appears to no longer exist, and I have seen no other sources. But a lack of critical reviews should not mean that we need to resort to fan opinion to determine the critical reception section. Metacritic user reviews, IMBd, TV.com, and I think even Common Sense Media are determined solely by users and that is not a source I see outside of this page. The fact that specific events that within the show are mentioned really shows that the reviews are heavily biased towards the fan opinion. An example that REALLY stands out to me is this, from the World Tour section:

"However, some events of the season were severely criticized, such as the over-use of popular characters like Owen and Duncan getting more screen time and the under-use of characters like Noah and Tyler who were booted off early."

This is a clearly opinionated. Overuse of "popular" characters? Why would they not use a popular character, and if the critics recognized this why would they think this is a bad idea? Underuse of characters like Tyler and Noah? I doubt that, even if there was a review that existed which there does not seem to be, that this would not actually happen. They would care more about what they got, not who was "overused" or who had potential, which something that is more of a subjective opinion in the fanbase. Speaking of this, why is everything coincidentally something that the fanbase focuses on so much? This is more of a petty issue that a critic would not go with. Issues such as "Gwen and Courtney's friendship being ruined again" from the overall TD section, "overuse of season four characters" from the overall TD section, "Ezekiel being the first one kicked off" are also things that a critic couldn't care less about that but the fandom got worked up about. There is no way that a critical review would mention how they expected more out of Ezekiel because of the format of it. Notice how the critical reviews of Regular Show and Adventure Time will talk about the fundamentals of the show as a whole, not something like the elimination order or, well, utilization of characters. They also mention specific sites with specific names, which only one review of TDI does. They also talk about the concept of the show as a whole, the way all the characters are handled, and how they go through all existent plotlines, not the specfic plotlines they go through and how utilized characters are. Any awards the show gets are specifically mentioned where they got it and in what section and if they won. All sections of Total Drama do not do this.

As a side note, the rewards Total Drama World Tour won are unspecified for their location and the fact that it mentioned "many other rewards" particularly irks me as well. What are these other rewards? Or is this another assumption?

This brings me to the assumption that there is no actual critic reviews for any season past TDI, and the lack of citations for so many years and my aforementioned reasons only seems to back up my claim. Even if they did happen, why is reception for season five being removed when it has exactly as many citations (zero) as all the other seasons? I understand that having a link to Tumblr is dumb and should not happen, but everything else seems to already be assuming that critics felt the same exact way as the fanbase, so... yeah. All I'm wondering is why this reception remains the way it is for so many years, and if nothing is being done about it, why it is a bad idea to try to remove unsupported and potentially false information.

So overall I still think that much of the information is useless and think that you should reconsider rollbacking my edit towards the pages.

Thank you for your time.

Your change on the HTC One (2013) article, according to your edit summary, also implied an Apple bias. We go by what the reliable sources say. If they call it a unibody, we call it a unibody.

Total Drama

About the Total Drama series, the reason I removed the category Cartoon Network original programs from the article is for what the category page lists:

This category is for television programs produced by Cartoon Network that have regularly aired their first-run episodes on the regular Cartoon Network schedule.

Cartoon Network does not produce Total Drama, it only airs the show in the United States. That's why I had to remove that category, because to have it there would imply that CN produces the show (like it does/did Dexter's Laboratory, Johnny Bravo, the Ben 10 shows, The Amazing World of Gumball, The Marvelous Misadventures of Flapjack and Chowder, among others CN has developed and produced), even though it does not. Creativity-II (talk) 21:44, 10 December 2014 (UTC)

The reason for removal

The reason I removed the template because, some other users belive that the animation industry templates I added to this and other articles has nothing to do with the article, or there isn't a refference to it. These are the edits that got undone;

Total Drama will soon become a franchise though in June when the second series airs in a new channel in both Canada and the US so adding that new template makes sense. Besides, no one else seems to be removing it, so until someone else does remove it for a reason than just saying "other people are", then I say it should stay. Besides, the new template looks cool Giggett (talk) 17:07, 21 January 2015 (UTC)
