The photo of the silver tabby Maine Coon that you provided is beautiful. I actually never knew that such a color existed in the breed, let alone in the cat world. Thank you for finding it and putting it into the Maine Coon article! – Ms. Sarita Confer 10:35, 4 August 2010 (UTC)
Thank you for keeping an eye on the Maine Coon article. Between two jobs, part-time school, and a full-time boyfriend, I have not had ANY time to come in and keep an eye on it. So, thank you! – Ms. Sarita Confer 20:48, 23 August 2011 (UTC)
Ok, sorry to add irrelevant stuff to List of 70 mm films; I was wikifying Around the World (1967 film) and wanted to make sure it didn't get lost if it belonged. Nice of you to tell me. :) Jodi.a.schneider (talk) 15:04, 29 August 2010 (UTC)
Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute to the encyclopedia, but when you add or change content, as you did to the article Apollo 13 (film), please cite a reliable source for the content of your edit. This helps maintain our policy of verifiability. See Wikipedia:Citing sources for how to cite sources, and the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia.

For quickly finding and adding a source for a quotation in the Pat Tillman article instead of just complaining that there wasn't any, like some folks were doing, including me. GeorgeLouis (talk) 17:06, 14 February 2011 (UTC) |
Re. Pat Tillman, and the quotation/censorship debate,
In order to clarify, I am asking users to briefly, clearly state which version of the quotation they support or oppose.
Please see Talk:Pat_Tillman#Clarifying_for_consensus
I am sending this message to everyone who has previously participated in the discussion; I do not wish to make any assumptions of the previous opinion.
I want to show clear consensus, so the issue can be resolved and edit-warring can be prevented.
Thanks,

WP:FILMRELEASE says, "Release dates should be restricted to the film's earliest release, whether it was at a film festival or a public release, and the release date(s) in the country or countries that produced the film".

Hello, and thank you for removing vandalism from John Carter (film). This is much appreciated, but unfortunately your repair was not successful in restoring the article to its pre-vandalised state. For future reference, it is better to deal with vandalism by checking the article's page history to determine how it appeared before it was vandalised. You can then restore the whole article, or the relevant part of it, to an appropriate earlier version. If you simply delete the visible vandalism then any content removed or overwritten by the vandal is lost. See How to deal with vandalism for details. Thank you.

Welcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, please note that there is a Manual of Style that should be followed to maintain a consistent, encyclopedic appearance. Deviating from this style, as you did in The Pirates! In an Adventure with Scientists (film), makes articles harder to read.

Hi, I'm working an an educational videogame with which I'm trying to build a bridge between animal awareness and Pokemon fans among others. It started out as something small but it's getting bigger and more professional. I saw one of your pictures: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:MaineCoonSilverTabby.jpg
And I would like your permission to use it under that license with the following attribution: Barry Wom
Also, because I want to make sure there's no misunderstanding, you are the original photographer correct? It sometimes happens that another person simply takes a picture from somebody else and uploads it to wikipedia with a license to distribute. That is why I'm asking.
There is more information on the game here, including a short video that tells a little bit about the background: https://www.redacted.com/projects/238178285/animalalbum
I also have a demo version of the game available so you can see for yourself in what way the pictures are presented: http://dromedarydreams.com/index/demo/0-8
Please let me know if I have your permission, if the picture is yours and if you want a different attribution.

Barry you have accused me of vandalism of the Tutankhamun page and threatened to ban me from editing. This is an unfair accusation. I have given sufficient argumentation for updating the Tutankhamun page image. Wikipedia does not say anywhere in any rules that the most famous image should be the wikipedia page image. The page image should be the image that is the best depiction of the person. Wikimedia Commons has a great image of his mannequin, which is a fully painted depiction of him. I linked the mannequin image to his page because it better represents his appearance than his gold mask.SmoovOpr8r (talk) 15:53, 26 July 2021 (UTC)
Hi Barry Wom. After reviewing your request, I have rollback on your account. Keep in mind these things when using rollback:
For some more information on how to use rollback, see Wikipedia:Administrators' guide/Rollback (even though you're not an admin). I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, but feel free to leave me a message on my talk page if you run into trouble or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism. Happy editing! ~ ToBeFree (talk) 18:08, 3 August 2021 (UTC)
If the mention of national headlines were removed, then Geldof's onstage remarks would at least be verifiable content in themselves.
The trouble with verifying the headlines, as with any wave of tabloid-related notoriety, is that since the headlines themselves appeared in banned sources such as [1] therefore the only means of verifying the existence of the headlines would be for a reliable source (such as a broadsheet newspaper) to comment on the tabloid coverage (as opposed to directly covering the story - which they might still do but in a more low-key fashion not constituting headline coverage in its own right). Highbrow roundups of tabloid ravings are sadly rare and hard to trace (Punch used to do a good such section back in the day.) Romomusicfan (talk) 17:49, 11 August 2021 (UTC)

I’d like to extend a formal apology for recent edits. While I have been editing and contributing to what I felt was towards the consensus, I realize that it is not what others see and has resulted in a back and forth between other editors and myself. I’ve decided to refrain towards major edits towards the South Park related articles until a final decision be made on the film series page, and even then I will be doing my best to abide by the consensus in a more direct way. One again, my apologies for any trouble or hassle over the past few days. Zvig47 (talk) 03:16, 20 January 2022 (UTC)
Wikipedia editors are supposed to assume good faith (at all times), this is something our civil society thrives on and so do I, but apparently not yourself. This article is a mix between general information, international law and technical knowledge. Why you insist on UK and EU unity is beyond me, their laws are distinct and the directive you so kindly found does not any longer include the UK, legally. It says "Addressee: The fifteen Member States: Belgium, Denmark, Germany, Ireland, Greece, Spain, France, Italy, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Austria, Portugal, Finland, Sweden, United Kingdom" so keep your edit, if you were focused on "Good Faith" or if you assumed it, you would have edited it to make it ring true or be an authoritative section. EU laws simply no longer apply to any members of the Commonwealth of Nations. Right now the way it stands people doing research will be forced to closely examine the law to decide if they are in the UK or in the EU which laws apply to them. France, Germany, Switzerland, Belgium, Italy, Spain and the UK all have their own laws and regulations regarding chocolate as well as exceed the directive you so kindly found which I did not. So thanks for finding that, just keep your roll-back reversion, leave people without additional information and be extra happy with your great accomplishment of doing nothing except wasting my time and effort trying to collaborate at Wikipedia as a volunteer. Arbitrators are not judges, they are mediators their opinions force the entities to come to a resolution, you did neither and pulled a Donald Trump move with no apparent benefit to anyone except your own ego.

Why did you remove my storyboard edits for multiple shows (such as Futurama, American Dad, The Cleveland Show, even children's shows like Ben 10)? I worked very hard to improve those pages but now since you removed them, the writers and directors (specifically co-directors or co-writers) are a bit of a jumbled mess. I already the discussions that storyboard artists are only allowed for children's shows (Nick, CN, Disney) but why you are removing the storyboards from almost all adult/primetime shows? I know they were credited in the credits and only the writer and director were credited in the opening titles, but why you are taking away my hard work on adding the storyboard artists. I promise I will not add composers, overseas studios, supervising directors, etc. because it can overclog the page and it will become unreadble. Most people can only find the storyboard artists on IMDB but the problem with that is that it is always vandalized. Take a look on the SpongeBob episodes "Squirrel Jelly/The String" (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt8260950/?ref_=fn_ep_tt_1) and "Plankton's Intern/Patrick's Tantrum" (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt10084374/?ref_=fn_ep_tt_1). Even if the writers and voice actors were correct, the animation department section was totally vandalized. They claim that the crew from The Simpsons Movie and The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie have involvement in these episodes but that's is not true! How Rich Moore, Gregg Vanzo, Steven Dean Moore and Lauren MacMullan are involved in these episodes?! They didn't even work on SpongeBob, they worked on The Simpsons! But you see, IMDB is not always a reliable source. Can you please restore all of my storyboard edits for most of the shows I mentioned (same applies to The Simpsons and Family Guy)? I worked so hard on adding those pages, but you are taking it all away! Thank you. 69.255.225.138 (talk) 16:09, 15 September 2022 (UTC)
Hello Barry. I saw you reverted my edit. You are right, I was hasty. I keep reading on the web (the last two times, yesterday on Wikipedia and right now on another site) people that use "prequel" as if it means "prologue" or "precursor" or "previous episode". I just wanted to emphasize the fact that a prequel has to be released AFTER the original. Do you see my point? Shall we work together towards a reformulation that makes that apparent even to the "hasty-reader-who-stops-after-less-than-one-line"? --Abacos (talk) 22:04, 3 November 2022 (UTC)

Yes, I know you were in the right policywise ... the source CMJ2 kept providing was not reliable. But that's only an exception to 3RR when it involves a BLP. It takes two to edit war, and unfortunately you were the other person (I haven't blocked you for as long). You could have explained it in detail on their talk page instead of continuing to revert, or requested protection. Daniel Case (talk) 05:01, 3 April 2023 (UTC)
Hi. Your edit is fine; but, just to be clear, the reason I'd removed that comma was that it is incorrect to precede a restrictive appositive with a comma. Moreover, a comma before an appositive, even where that's correct (i.e., with a nonrestrictive appositive), would need to be paired with a second comma after the appositive. People often add gratuitous commas before titles of books, movies, albums, TV shows, etc., perhaps because they make an erroneous analogy with the correct practice of putting a comma before a quotation (i.e., an actual quotation, not a short-story or song title with its conventional quotation marks, which do not automatically call for introductory commas). In any event, your edit stands, but I wanted to explain why that comma was indeed incorrect in the version I addressed. Jcejhay (talk) 13:20, 8 April 2023 (UTC)

Undid revision 1197096256 by Szagory (talk) Unfortunately the plot additions break the upper word count limit of 700. Please reword to stay below this.
I'm just curious where that limit of 700 words comes from - and since what time is it in effect? I've never heard about anything like that... Also, under what circumstances is that limit supposed to be enforced, does it apply to every single edit (in which it would be conceivably very easy to break, when new material is added to previously empty section)?

Hi, I noticed that you reverted my edit to the plot summary of Over the Hedge (film) with the edit summary "The plot needs trimming, not added to." I agree that the plot could be trimmed, but the small amount I added was a sentence explaining the core conflict of the film, which was a very necessary addition. I also made some necessary changes to improve cohesion that didn't effect the length, please be cognizant of reverting entire edits due to an objection with just one element of the edit. I'm writing you here with an explanation because I don't want to start an edit war, but for now I will be undoing your undo due to the importance of the line I added. I will also try to pare down the summary a bit as a good will gesture. I hope this addresses your concerns over the length of the plot summary. pluma♫ ♯ 21:48, 20 January 2024 (UTC)
