Hello

i noticed you edited

The Great Big Quiz
recently - your edits have been reverted by "Mel Etitis" a user who I personally dislike very much as I have had the same problem with her over the past three months or so - she doesn't have a clue about The Great Big Quiz yet she is determined to wreck the page and keep it from becoming a bigger and better page. She just deletes every edit you do - no matter what. I've told a few other people about this, and hopefully with your help too we can convince this twit that we're right and they're wrong. Just look at the page history!

Thanks

Hi,just to let you know why I have amended your recent edit to the above page as unfortunately your edit removed a link to a local newspaper article about her appearance in the Notes section, and did not link the official Soapstar Superchef website to Notes. If you look at the history of the page it might appear that I have just reverted your edit, but that was the best way to retain the newspaper article link that had been removed by your edit. I have of course, put all the information you provided back in! Thanks♦Tangerines BFC ♦·Talk 18:31, 13 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Copyvio on City Lights

Hello, and

City Lights (ITV series), but we regretfully cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from either web sites or printed material. This article appears to be a direct copy from http://www.tesco.com/entertainment/product.aspx?R=770821&bci=6%7CDVD*247%7CTelevision*92%7CComing%20Soon*4294919743%7CComedy%20Drama, and therefore a copyright violation
. The copyrighted text has been or will soon be deleted.

If you believe that the article is not a copyright violation, or if you have permission from the copyright holder to release the content freely under the GNU Free Documentation License (GFDL) then you should do one of the following:

It is also important that the text be modified to have an encyclopedic tone and that it follows

Wikipedia article layout. For more information on Wikipedia's policies, see Wikipedia's policies and guidelines
.

If you would like to begin working on a new version of the article you may do so at

Talk:City Lights (ITV series)
saying you have done so and an administrator will move the new article into place once the issue is resolved. Thank you, and please feel welcome to continue contributing to Wikipedia. Happy editing!

This seems to be lifted straight from the official synopsis of the series. Perhaps you could rewrite it, describing the series in your own words? Thanks. TomPhil 14:14, 19 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Minor edits

Please remember to mark your edits as minor when (and only when) they genuinely are minor edits (see

Wikipedia:Minor edit). Marking a major change as a minor one (and vice versa) is considered poor etiquette. The rule of thumb is that only an edit that consists solely of spelling corrections, formatting and minor rearranging of text should be flagged as a 'minor edit'. Thanks! --Mel Etitis (Talk) 16:34, 21 April 2007 (UTC)[reply

Message moved from User page

Recently you removed a section on the ITV page setting out the reporters and presenters ... why did you do this when the other pages on TV news networks do the same. Sky for example has a long long list of reporters and presenters? You left no explaination as to why you did this, please explain your actions if you are going to just hatchet articles. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.255.52.28 (talkcontribs) 04:25, 21 April 2007


Your edit to Anna Williamson

Message posted on Monday, April 23, 2007

Please do not post copyrighted material to Wikipedia without permission from the copyright holder, as you did to Anna Williamson. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites (http://www.gm.tv/index.cfm?articleid=13448 in this case) 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. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously, and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If you believe that the article is not a copyright violation, or if you have permission from the copyright holder to release the content freely under the GNU Free Documentation License (GFDL) then you should do one of the following:

Otherwise, you are encouraged to rewrite this article in your own words to avoid any copyright infringement. After you do so, you should place a {{hangon}} tag on the article page and leave a note at Talk:Anna Williamson saying you have done so. An administrator will review the new content before taking action.

It is also important that all Wikipedia articles have an encyclopedic tone and follow

Thanks for uploading Image:TomWeirSTV.jpg. The image has been identified as not specifying the source and creator of the image, which is required by Wikipedia's policy on images. If you don't indicate the source and creator of the image on the image's description page, it may be deleted some time in the next seven days. If you have uploaded other images, please verify that you have provided source information for them as well.

Don't be silly. First, "unexplained" means that no edit summary was given; I gave one. "Unsourced" is irrelevant when the edit consists solely of making a correction in line with MoS or WikiProject style. --Mel Etitis (Talk) 13:13, 5 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Mel, you changed www.tgbbq.com to http://www.tgbbq.com - stating in your edit summary "tidied" isn't very acurate, is it?GMc 13:17, 5 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
It's as accurate as it needs to be; the piped form isn't in the WikiProject, and I can in any case see no point. --Mel Etitis (Talk) 18:48, 5 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. You keep changing the order of the categories on the Kingdom article. They're listed in alphabetical order, which is the recommended order. Please don't change it back again or at the very least provide an edit summary with a reason for doing so.

If the consensus at Wikipedia talk:What Wikipedia is not is going the way it is, full and comprehensive programme lists may be encyclopedic. ie. full = a lot more than ten! Should be fun..!

Move Channel 4 programming (reversed)

I've undone your move of

Channel 4 programming - see talk:Channel 4 programming
.

The article is pretty messy because it is a mixture of list and prose which is why in its current guise, I don't agree with the move, that doesn't mean I don't agree in principle with the idea of a list article of Channel 4 programmes or the name you chose. I just think attention should first be drawn to the state the article is currently in and what should be done to tidy things up a bit, before we settle on a different name for the article.

Your comments much appreciated in above talk page.

ITV Regions

Hi GMc, was contacting to see if you could help me out with a reference for ITV regions. I'm currently building up the Barrow-in-Furness article and adding citations to the text that is already there. Your Image:ITVmap.jpg tells me pictorially tells me what I know to be true: that Barrow falls into the Granada ITV region. What did you source your map? I'm not sure, but I don't think I can reference your image per se. Any help would be much appreciated. Kijog 14:11, 25 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

itv.com/citv -> citv.co.uk

It's interesting to note that you've changed itv.com/citv to citv.co.uk on the main article, no doubt because itv.com/citv no longer redirects straight to that site. The reason that it is interesting is that I changed it to that way back in December 2006, upon which you started an edit war, insisting that it should be itv.com/citv. There's even the discussion we had still on the CITV list article talk page. Just thought I'd point it out ;) TheIslander 23:51, 3 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

As I explained last time, CITV advertise both itv.com/citv and citv.co.uk. As the latter is the actual adress, it is the one that should be used - why link to a redirect? TheIslander 20:33, 8 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
