Thank you for your edits to this page! I think you are doing positive work on a page I have spent a lot of time working on. I looked at your User page (at User:Aardvarkzz) and it looks like you could use some advice. Your userpage can be seen by everyone, even by people who don't have Wikipedia accounts! I would not recommend putting sensitive or private information on your user page. I would stay away from giving your real name and where you live (saying which state you are from is fine, even city, if you live in a big place). Take a look at other people's user pages (here is mine: User:JEN9841) to see what other people use their user pages for.
The user page is where you can tell other Wikipedians about yourself, what types of articles you edit, and your general thoughts about Wikipedia. Technically anyone can edit someone's user page (unless its been protected), but it is common courtesy to not edit other people's user pages (its usually very much frowned upon; any outside edits would practically be vandalism). The pages you are allowed to edit are the user talk pages, which is the kind I am writing on now. My user talk page is at User talk:JEN9841). Feel free to make a new section on my user talk page to communicate with me.
Thank you again!
Also never forget to sign after you write on talk pages or discussion pages of articles with four tildes (~), as this signs your name with the date...it ends up looking like this: JEN9841 (talk) 07:00, 18 August 2009 (UTC)
- It is superb to have an actual expert on the topic working on this page. As you can probably tell, I am no film expert, just a fan, and I think your position/opinion would take precedence over mine on anything with regards to this article. If you see any film on this entry that is not in the public domain, please promptly remove it. Also, you may have seen already on the talk page {Talk:List of films in the public domain in the United States}, but I removed a large amount of films that I could not find citations for and moved them to a subpage under my namespace, at User:JEN9841/List of films in the public domain. With your added resources, if you can find a citation for them, it would be great to have them added back to this list as a film that is in the public domain. JEN9841 (talk) 16:29, 21 August 2009 (UTC)
You may disagree, but I'm not sure that this article meets guidelines for inclusion. Take a look at
Table re-formatting of List of films in the public domain in the United States
Thank you for your concern with this article. While I still would prefer to change the article to a table under namespace and, once complete, move it to article space, the way it is currently being transerred, though not ideal in my opinion, is still acceptable. As for your concern about information in the table that is not directly relevant to a film's PD status, one of the most important aspects of having list articles (as opposed to mere categories) is that more information can be conveyed to the reader. This information, as you point out, may or may not be directly relevant to the subject of the article. Once the table is complete, unnecessary columns can be removed (it is a good idea to defer, at least initially, to have more columns than less, as it is much easier to remove something than add it later).
I have actually taken part in the transfer, as I have already moved all of the "B" titled films into table format. Your added information to the list was very helpful in putting the info in the table. If you like, you can also begin transferring the work into the table.JEN9841 (talk) 14:45, 18 September 2009 (UTC)

Thank you for your report on 71.49.85.160 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · filter log · WHOIS · RDNS · RBLs · http · block user · block log). Reporting and removing vandalism is vital to the functioning of Wikipedia and you are encouraged to revert, warn and report inappropriate conduct. I have however declined to act on this report for the following reason:

Speedy deletion nomination of Judith Paige Mitchell
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 page 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 page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

Peter Graves (actor)
I noticed that you inserted a few references that were in the following form: "Obituary (name of publication as internal link) (date of publication)." I had to remove them because readers expect such references to be external links to the online form of the actual articles. Here's a few tips you might want to consider: (1) Find the actual article online. Make sure you collect the piece's ENTIRE web address (http://...). (2) When you're on the edit workpage of the entry you're attempting to alter, use the "<ref/ref>" icon, which is the one at the far right above the text screen. Activating it will provide you with the basic format for references. Next, erase "Insert footnote text here" and tap the External links icon, which is fourth from the left with the planet Earth on it. This will automatically give you the proper format for you to type in the article's ENTIRE web address. (3) When you're finished editing, what needs to appear in the link name are the author's name (if available), the complete title of the article, the publication's name italicized and the date it appeared in print form (or the date it appeared online if the former is not expressed). Here's an example:[1]
The only time I can think of when references aren't in the form of external links is when the text of the cited sources are not available online, such as actual books, publications from long time ago, match programs/magazines from sports entities, etc.
Please consult the information provided by Wikipedia because they are the ultimate authority on this matter and can explain everything better than I could. I, myself, have been the beneficiary of a few good tutorials from fellow editors. Your efforts in editing are appreciated because they make life a lot more easier for the rest of us. Best of luck in all future endeavors! The Ink Daddy! (talk) 02:55, 16 March 2010 (UTC)
Reply from The Ink Daddy!
My first apology is having forgotten to sign my previous comment above. It was purely accidental. I guess I was too preoccupied with NCAA Division I Men's Basketball tournament brackets, filling out the Census form, doing research on my book, etc.
I checked throughout Wikipedia to find the information relevant to this dilemna and found it in Wikipedia:Inline citation. First, you are correct that there are no strict requirements for using them. Second, you make an outstanding point that lots of external links go dead after a certain period of time. This is especially true with articles from Tribune Company-owned newspapers, which pains me greatly because I'm a reader of The Baltimore Sun. One exception is The New York Times, whose articles have some staying power, except for the ones from the 1960s through the early-1980s which have a price tag attached to them.
I was thinking along the lines of how to best serve the readers of Wikipedia. I strongly feel that it is important for the entries to be as informative and professional-looking as possible, considering that Wikipedia's reputation is always being questioned. By no means was I trying to be condescending.
I was originally going to comment on the contentious nature of your correspondence, but I remembered that I was exactly like that when I started, and boy do I regret it. Then again, I guess it's all part of the learning process. I do respect you for challenging my comments & actions because it forced me to learn more about the details behind Wikipedia.
What you were doing was correct, and I apologize for my actions. Just as a modest suggestion, you might want to mention the author's name and the exact title of the article in your references, too. Just a modest suggestion. The Ink Daddy! (talk) 02:55, 16 March 2010 (UTC)

Hey Aardvarkzz, I was sifting through my contributions and noticed this AFD I filed a few months ago. I came by to say that I have learned since then to not tag articles so early :).

- Wikipedia's volumes of rules and scads of related tags are not clear or obvious. I used one image sent to me the owner at my request, and suddenly I have five warning messages. Based on the Summary and Licensing with other books on Wikipedia, as well as permission from the copyright owner, I have supplied what I hope will be acceptable to Wikipedia. If there is some technical conflict with what is acceptable, please correct it for me so I will know what to do in the future.

File source problem with File:The Irish Filmography.jpg
Thank you for uploading File:The Irish Filmography.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of that website's terms of use of its content. However, if the copyright holder is a party unaffiliated from the website's publisher, that copyright should also be acknowledged.
If you have uploaded other files, consider verifying that you have specified sources for those files as well. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged per Wikipedia's criteria for speedy deletion, F4. If the image is copyrighted and non-free, the image will be deleted 48 hours after 05:20, 24 August 2010 (UTC) per speedy deletion criterion F7. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Salavat (talk) 05:20, 24 August 2010 (UTC)
Variety cites
Please don't just stick a plain cite to Variety obits into article

Quoting from the obits is something I intend to add later. If you want to quote from the obits now, that will be a welcome contribution.

Hi. Thanks for the message. You wrote: "...VARIETY OBITS: An Index to Obituaries in Variety by Jeb H. Perry. It ends at June 21, 1978, so I’ve used it to put in some page numbers. I’ll go back later to fill in some I missed."
Thanks. But please note that a bare citation, while helpful, is not as useful as a *discussion* of what the obit says. If the obit discusses this person's life, tell us what the obit says, and if there are any interesting quotes, you can quote them. For an excellent celebrity Biography article that uses sources well, see, for example,

- "I ask you to instruct User: Wikiwatcher1 to tolerate their presence in articles about movies and celebrities." That's not how this kind of thing works. It looks like you're adding extraneous references to articles. Why are you doing that? If the information is already verified (remember that leads don't need citations if they draw on verified material in the rest of the article), then adding citations to your pet references is pointless make-work. If those references actually have new information, then by all means add it to the articles and use a reference, but don't add hundreds or thousands of references to articles just for the sake of it.

Kyron
FYI - I have started a new article,
- I’m glad that someone has restored a page on this highly publicized case. There are people in the Wikipedia hierarchy that have a penchant for deleting pages on all but the most famous kidnap-murder victims, even those cases receiving widespread reportage. You appear to have started from scratch, even though there was lots of material in the previous article. Possibly it is unwise to ask the administrator who deleted that article to restore the material someplace where you can selectively add it back to your new article, as that administrator might delete your new article; if that’s not a problem, then why not ask?
Possibly you remember the case of Somer Thompson, who was kidnapped and murdered in 2009; her page was deleted too, despite lots of articles about her and her murderer. How does one go about appealing the unwarranted deletion of such articles?Aardvarkzz (talk) 00:09, 9 February 2011 (UTC)- The original article was deleted because the subject of the article was Kyron himself, i.e. it was a biography of Kyron.

We noticed though that when you edited Richard Sylbert, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Tequila Sunrise and Shoot to Kill (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.
