Please remember to assume good faith and please do not post any more harassing messages on my talk page
Dear Rob, yes, you are wrong, I post in lots of AfDs that you have not created: [1], [2], [3], [4], [5], etc. Both you and I seem to post in the "in popular culture" ones. Please remember to assume good faith and not make inaccurate allegations. You have posted a number of increasing incivil or accusatory messages to my talk page: [6], [7], [8], [9], [10], [11], [12], [13]. Considering that you have posted after me in a few AfDs, [14], [15], [16], [17], etc. and that I have NOT participated in every AfD you created, such as this one Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/List_of_Player's_Choice_titles_unavailable_on_the_Virtual_Console, I again urge you reconsider your allegations. I am happy to discuss with you in a civil and constructive manner. Please extend the same courtesy. If you are unwilling to do so, then I ask that you refrain from making false and unconstructive allegations. Thank you and have a pleasant night. Sincerely, --Le Grand Roi des CitrouillesTally-ho! 04:26, 2 October 2007 (UTC)
Trivia on Butters Stotch
My mistake I guess. I forgot to check out the discussion page before removing the tag. I should have made a post there first before removing the tag. Thanks for pointing it out. However, I still maintain that the section was NOT TRIVIA. Every section that requires a cleanup does not automatically become trivia. The section dealt definitely with butters' talents and was not made of isolated unrelated facts stuck together. And I did state the same in the edit summary.vineetcoolguy 14:57, 3 October 2007 (UTC)
I have closed this discussion, and the result was Keep, based on consensus and WP:HEY. Thanks for your work in prodding this. Bearian 17:47, 3 October 2007 (UTC)
Stalking accusations
Rob, you are making improper accusations of stalking against editors who are involved in the same recent surge of popular culture deletion discussions. I thought this claim was not unreasonable, but then you accused [18] DGG of vandalism because he asked for discussion before content is buried behind a redirect. Then you claimed [19] that he de-prodded the article because he was stalking you. These claims would be a lot more believable if you didn't engage in the exact same behavior, like !voting in AFDs [20] [21] that Roi had already participated in right after you left the missive cited above. These improper accusations are disruptive. If this continues, I will block you.--chaser - t 01:08, 4 October 2007 (UTC)

Why did you remove the memorable moments from the Bigger Bang Tour page you wanker! Thats vandalism! Fuck off and die fuckwit! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 122.148.67.159 (talk) 10:26, 7 October 2007 (UTC)

Congratulations to our 225 new members |
The newsletter is back! Many things have gone on during the past few months, but many things have not. While the assessment drive helped revitalize the assessment department of the project, many other departments have received no attention. Most notably: peer review and our "workgroups". A day long IRC meeting has been planned for October 13th, with the major focus being which areas of the project are "dead", what should our goals be as a project, and how to "revive" the dead areas of our project. Contribute to the discussion on the the new channel (see below) We decided to deliver this newsletter to all project members this month but only those with their names down here will get it delivered in the future. This is your newsletter and you can be involved in the creation of the next issue. Any and all contributions are welcome. Simply let yourself be known to any of the undersigned or post news on the next issue's talk page
Lastly, a new WikiProject Biography channel has been set up on the freenode network: Our thanks to Phoenix 15 for setting it up.

family guy wiki
Its fine that you are redirecting people to the wiki, but not all of the info you are deleting is being moved in its entirety. If you are going through the process of redirecting people, you can at least move the info Grande13 20:16, 8 October 2007 (UTC)
censorship
The syndication edits are indeed pointless to have as most shows have similiar cuts when they go into syndication. Although with Family guy its slightly altered as they have multiple versions. The initial version on fox has a good deal of edits, that change entirely on dvd. There are different scenes, jokes and such which are much more than just syndication edits for time and standards, as fox already is a free broadcast network. I think the section should be allowed that shows the difference in scenes from the initial TV version to DVD as those are somewhat notable as they might contain completely different things in segments. Although this adding extra stuff for the dvd didnt start til season 4. So remove all of those, but maybe you can remove the straight up syndication edits on teh later episodes, but keep the alterations to the dvd version category intact.

Lookout
Hello, there is a user named User:Cardsplayer4life who keeps reverting the tags I have added for various large trivial lists here, saying things like "cultural references aren't trivia". I tagged and found some pretty bad/trivial lists, as you can see by my contributions. I've reverted the tags back for most, I still think they should be retained on most. Just thought you might like to know. 75.5.225.151 08:26, 27 October 2007 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Alkivar
You've been mentioned at Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Alkivar/Workshop. This doesn't make you a party, but it is standard to notify users if they are brought up. In truth, don't worry, there's very little chance the committee will adopt any proposals related to you. Picaroon (t) 01:29, 3 November 2007 (UTC)
MUA-related
When I saw a clip on YouTube where there was special dialogue with Magneto and Fin Fang Foom, it sounded like Richard Green reprised Magneto. Don't you agree? Rtkat3 (talk) 9:21, 6 November 2007 (UTC)
Hey Rob, I saw that you requested some box art and a screenshot for Fire Emblem DS. I've removed the request for a screenshot as the article currently consists of the lead only, so we shouldn't really have a screenshot yet as the image should be reserved for the box art. I'll restore the request or add an image once the article expands thanks. Ashnard Talk Contribs 15:55, 14 November 2007 (UTC)
- I'd prefer it if you communicated via talk pages and not edit summaries. As I've said, you're requesting something that cannot yet be used. Ashnard Talk Contribs 23:46, 17 November 2007 (UTC)
- I seriously don't know what your problem is. Please, I urge you to discuss this on the relevant talk pages and not via edit summaries. As you're unwilling to do this, I'm reverting your edit. Ashnard Talk Contribs 15:45, 3 December 2007 (UTC)
- I've left a note on Fire Emblem DS talk page. Let's keep the discussion there. Ashnard Talk Contribs 20:42, 3 December 2007 (UTC)
Screenshot Request for Dino Crisis 3
Betacommandbot constantly deletes the screenshots. Apparently it does not believe the fair use is legitimate. despite being proved wrong multiple times, it continue to delete them anyway.OsirisV (talk) 12:50, 18 November 2007 (UTC)
comment
You really should back off. You're always complaining about something, and then you go rally other people to help you. --LN3000 (talk) 00:23, 20 November 2007 (UTC)
- I haven't claimed ownership of everything. Please feel free to make a notice board post if you want. I haven't done anything wrong. --LN3000 (talk) 04:42, 20 November 2007 (UTC)
Accusation
Please do not accuse me of making things up.
Someone on the deletion debates (more than one) called the pages and/or the shows "crufts" which can be slang for something boring - I am only assuming that's what they meant. MJN SEIFER (talk) 17:12, 24 November 2007 (UTC)
Done, and have seeded requests for feedback. --MASEM 19:21, 28 November 2007 (UTC)
The trivia
Be consistent in removing it. Like you said in your edit summary, policy cannot be overridden by consensus. Eventually it will not come back. RyanGerbil10(Говорить!) 20:14, 30 November 2007 (UTC)
- Rob, as you certainly know, policy is made by consensus,and there is no policy against trivia--such a policy has been consistently rejected by the community. Please don't take such advice to set one's own idea of what policy ought to be above that of the community about what it really is. If there were a policy against trivia, I would not be defending it.

Talk:List of Virtual Console games (North America))
You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions in a content dispute within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing. Please do not repeatedly revert edits, but use the talk page to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. TJ Spyke 23:48, 2 December 2007 (UTC)
Video game categories
Stop removing the main game category, when it's only for a certain system. This is just fine. Here is a discussion on it: Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Video_games#Question_about_games_exclusive_to_a_certain_console. RobJ1981 00:26, 3 December 2007 (UTC)
I don't see what the harm is actually, if a category is under another category, what's the point of having an article under both categories? By taking these out I was able to reduce the amount of categories they were in making it more organized. Technically the video game articles would still be under the same category. Unknown Dragon 00:32, 3 December 2007 (UTC)
Prods
True, they are around and will take away the prods, but don't worry, I keep track of them to make sure they get AFD'd even if the tags get taken. Judgesurreal777 (talk) 04:49, 11 December 2007 (UTC)
Your Template:Inactive at WP:CUE
Um, an entire project is not inactive because only one editor regularly maintains the project page. WikiProjects (that focus on articles rather than templates or other Wikipedia internals) exist to create and improve articles, not sit around editing themselves; that most of the project members are working on articles instead of the project page is a good thing. WP:CUE#New articles demonstrates that the project is actually quite active. — SMcCandlish [talk] [cont] ‹(-¿-)› 22:21, 13 December 2007 (UTC)
Imaginationland-related
I would, but where else are people supposed to easily recognize the familiar characters there....unless the Imaginationland trilogy has a page on a South Park wiki. Rtkat3 (talk) 4:12, 14 December 2007 (UTC)
Cartman
Wikipedia is a resource for people to get information, not a list of links to other sources. If a fictional character is very culturally significant, we have to make the page reflect the character. I agree that some of it was too trivial, but deleting everything that isn't cited isn't how you should go about it. Clean it up, and put a warning at the top that we need to find more citations and that some of the information is not verifiable. What's the point of wikipedia if there is no clear information on it? Simpson, Bart (talk) 17:09, 15 December 2007 (UTC)
Frank West votes
I did not mean for it to be percieved as a means of leaning the polls towards my thoughts, as we know, Wikipedia is NOT a democracy. I was simply notifying previous participants whom showed support for the article. Smile Lee (talk) 04:49, 17 December 2007 (UTC)
PPV win percent
On what grounds though? In the last MFD, I thought it became clear that there is nothing at WP:SUBPAGE that would support it being deleted. I know you may not like it, but whether it ever becomes an article or not seems to be irrelevent since it doesn't violate any policies or guidelines that apply to subpages. If you want to help turn it into a full article, feel free to make suggestions. I started the project several years ago since I don't know of any site on the Internet that did something like this for wrestling. Maybe I should submit it to a site like Obsessed with Wrestling, would you finally stop trying to delete it if they published it? TJ Spyke 07:15, 20 December 2007 (UTC)
- I e-mailed two websites about the list. The webmaster of Wrestling Information Archive ([22]) has said he will add it to his website and list me as a contributor if I continue to update it on a regular basis. TJ Spyke 23:04, 20 December 2007 (UTC)
- I do have it on my computer (and it's more up to date. The one on my computer is up to Armageddon, while the one here is up to Unforgiven). If I have my work published, it's not really OR anymore (unless any kind of statistics is considered original research). I can provide you links to every single PPV that was used to compile the list. With the WIA agreeing to publish it (and OWW saying they might link to it once I get it up), that will be 2 sites that can be used to help turn it into an article. Even if it never became an article though, it doesn't violate any policies or guidelines to warrant its deletion (which I thought was made clear in the last MFD). TJ Spyke 06:23, 21 December 2007 (UTC)
Will you leave TJ alone, please? It was established that the subpage is not in violation of any policies in the last MfD. You may disagree with the result, but we've all been in that situation before, and we all move on. Just leave the man alone, please. The Hybrid T/C 06:45, 21 December 2007 (UTC)
"rescue"
I reverted you. Charges of vote stacking are not AGF. Policy is we try to improve articles if possible, rather than delete them. And if the article does not get improved, then it will get deleted. Only the good ones really get consensus. Its not as if everything he supports gets kept--far from it. People here tend to think for themselves. I don't always support him, or him me. And neither does anyone else. why make it look personal? just discuss the article at AfD. DGG (talk) 01:07, 22 December 2007 (UTC)
On the roster selection of this game, why can't there be a list? In my opinion it makes the page more organized. Tech43 (talk) 15:36, 25 December 2007 (UTC)
- Yep, I agree - it MUST be a list, or are you going to change the SvsR2007 page also to suite your taste? ArcAngel (talk) 20:05, 28 December 2007 (UTC)
And what the hell is your problem with a list anyways? Tech43 (talk) 20:52, 28 December 2007 (UTC) I apologize for my attack on you. Thank you for the reference, and thanks for the kind warning. I will improve in the future. Again, soory. Tech43 (talk) 04:41, 31 December 2007 (UTC)
