Unfortunately, this is NOT the place for that. There are a group of fans working on creating a Tori wiki; that is an appropriate venue. Not Wikipedia where few Tori songs bear any relevance to the masses or have any sort of citeable notability. You may find my AfD-ing some articles of yours unbecoming; however, as the GGEB AfD page shows, your goals and the goals of the most of us (and the encyclopedia in general) differ quite a bit.Butterfly0fdoom (talk) 07:53, 22 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I know all about the "fan wiki". I'm the one who began mention of it. In either case, I'll just stick to updating the albums on here. Thank you for your time (and patience). Mark-Alexis Gabriel

You are welcome for the compromise, and thank you for not taking my edits so personally. I remember when I started out as a Wikipedian, I would be hurt/dismayed by edits, but I quickly learned that they were not to be taken personally-- rather they were made to improve the overall quality of the article in question.

I haven't had a chance to take a close look at the Midwinter Graces article yet, but you have done a great job compiling info and sources for Abnormally Attracted to Sin article. I particularly like the critical reception section, so 'job well done'! =)

Thanks for the compliments on my edits/changes. I strive to make articles concise and flowing. Some of my "babies" are the Boys for Pele article and the Tori Amos discography list. Cheers! --Pisceandreams (talk) 02:50, 24 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Of course you can contribute. Anyone can contribute. I'm well aware that there's plenty more info out there on the album, I just haven't had the time lately to go search for more to include. (If you look at the article's history, you'll see that I haven't made any significant contributions to the article in quite a while. A lot has happened in life to keep me from delving into the article further.) My ultimate goal with the article is to nominate it for Featured Article status (it would be the first one of any of the Tori-related articles to achieve such a feat), so please contribute what you think is truly encyclopedic and pertinent, and for which you can provide a valid source.

I didn't read through all of your blog post yet, but I did skip down to the section on "Doughnut Song" (my favorite song on the album and one of my all-time favorite songs of hers) and it's interesting that she said, "I think one of the most important lines in the entire record for me was, “You told me last night you were a sun now, with your very own devoted satellite. I’m happy for you, and I am sure that I hate you; two sons [suns] too many; too many able fires.”" because that's the line that spoke to me the most, and that I believe is the essence of the album. Looking forward to reading your contributions. =) --Pisceandreams (talk) 06:01, 25 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hello MarkAlexisGabriel. I've been enjoying working with you on the article for the upcoming Tori Amos album, Night of Hunters. Thanks for helping to keep out non-encyclopedic info and all other stuff.

Just to clarify one of my edits, I moved the 'touring' section out from under the 'Background' section to give it its own section, as per the articles on most of Amos' other albums. I wasn't understanding how a tour to promote an album after its release could be included in a section devoted to the album's background, involving its inception and creation. Perhaps as more information is released and the article begins to take shape, everything will fall into its right place. =) --Pisceandreams (talk) 14:34, 15 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

You need to review

From the Acoustic music page: "Often a microphone is placed in front of an acoustic instrument which is then wired up to an amplifier." From the Classical guitar page: "It is an acoustic instrument." If you google "acoustic instrument" you get over one million hits. The idea that there is no such thing as an acoustic instrument is absurd. 99.192.58.167 (talk) 13:43, 3 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

You might want to check out how to format your contributions to talk pages. Firstly, when responding to a comment, you do not need to start a new section. Just hit "edit" on the section that exists and add your comments to the bottom of the existing section. Secondly, be sure to indent your comments by one more level than the one before. You do this by putting as many colons (":") before your paragraph as you want spaces indented. So if you are replying to a comment that starts with three colons, start yours with four. (If that explanation was not clear, just check any Wilipedia talk page with extended discussion and click on "edit" on one of them and look for the colons at the start of paragraphs. Thirdly, you always must sign your comments on talk pages. The way you do that is just put four tildes ("~~~~") at the end of your text. Wikipedia will automatically add a signature for you when you do that. (After writing a comment, put your four tildes and then hit "show preview" and you should see the signature as it will look when added.) For me, the four tildes translates to this ---> 99.192.87.117 (talk) 16:57, 5 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I see you are a fan of Lange, which I sympathise with, but statements such as "I like the lead" do not really make the lead good in accordance with

I spent half an hour to copyedit it and all of its mistakes, the huge amount of POV and redundancies. I added several films which were not mentioned and toned down the fan-led stuff. And there are many more such instances throughout the article which I am willing to take care of.

If you still "like the lead" the way it was before, then I don't mind taking it to

The article is in need of a major copyedit. Some portions of it are just really poorly done, and it has a lot of POV and little sources. Shahid • ^Talk2me 08:10, 8 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Your use of multiple Wikipedia accounts

Hi. An editor has opened an investigation into

sockpuppetry by you. Sockpuppetry is the use of more than one Wikipedia account in a manner that contravenes community policy. The investigation is being held at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/MarkAlexisGabriel, where the editor who opened the investigation has presented their evidence. Please make sure you make yourself familiar with the guide to responding to investigations

, and then feel free to offer your own evidence or to submit comments that you wish to be considered by the Wikipedia administrator who decides the result of the investigation. If you have been using multiple accounts (in a manner contrary to Wikipedia policy), please go to the investigation page and verify that now. Leniency is usually shown to those who promise not to do so again, or who did so unwittingly, but the abuse of multiple accounts is taken very seriously by the Wikipedia community.

Jessica Lange filmography page. This user does not care about maintaining the encyclopedic integrity of this page, but rather continues to make edits that make the article convoluted and confusing to read, as a proper review of his edits and revisions will show.

Comment

I believe I have learned a lesson, no less have other contributors who had the privilege to "work" with you. You have no respect for any other individual and for any matter else, but you and your self-destructive obsession with JL, and you have no sense what so ever for a neutral point of view as clearly obvious. For the past two years, you keep posting a content exclusively reserved to herself, her awards and accolades so forth and so on. You were told a hundred times there is

an article featuring such list with full details, and yet, you keep exhausting her additional articles with your countless totals of her awards in each possible section, just the same way as you keep creating your new and new "alter egos", filling all her articles with your own "rave reviews", adding irrelevant templates such as e.g. Infobox comedian awards, etc. As a matter of fact, your tiresome edits rather disrupting than contributing, they all make public dislike the woman actually than the other way around. This is not her fan page, some of us are also trying work around. My advice to you, get a life as soon as possible because you keep wasting your time, so much of those who have a real job to do. For what it's worth, I myself would not recommend to unblock you ever, my formal friend. Tweny13 (talk) 15:13, 27 July 2013 (UTC)[reply
