unexplained edits on Bocelli

You keep undoing my edits with no explanation other than that what I change "have been here for years." This is not a valid reason for undoing other people's edits. That sounds more like you don't like my edits. I looked under wikipedia rules and what you are doing counts as edit warring if you do it three times without a just explanation. You did it twice already. Do it once more and I will report you and you WILL be blocked. You can count on it. Consider this fair warning. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Scondilo (talk • contribs) 02:58, 18 January 2010 (UTC)

Hi Ahmad. I have restored your edits to the discography section because the reasoning you provided on Scondilo's talk page is valid. I have requested Scondilo not to undo the changes without a valid reason. As for the other changes under contention, I believe the reasoning he provided is valid. Many of the text he has removed relate to a nonworking link which is appropriate. As for the removal of content from the lead, the reason is valid there as well, as we should avoid clutter there and only include information provided on the identity of the person, that he is a singer, not all the accolades he has accomplished. That information is amply provided in the body of the article. I can understand the frustration of putting a lot of time and work into an article only to see some of your contribution removed but I'd like to remind you of avoiding the trap many people fall for of viewing Wikipedia as a personal workspace. Having put a lot of time and effort into something unfortunately does not qualify it for inclusion. What this means is that sometimes you will see someone remove one of your edits which may be painful but it may also be correct. I have sent Scondilo a similar message. This should end the dispute between you and Scondilo. --Tonalone (talk) 07:11, 18 January 2010 (UTC)

January 2010

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Andrea Bocelli. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24-hour period. Additionally, users who perform several reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. When in dispute with another editor you should first try to discuss controversial changes to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. Should that prove unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection. Please stop the disruption, otherwise you may be blocked from editing. BaronLarf 03:30, 18 January 2010 (UTC)

Popstar to Operastar

I've taken this here as it's inappropriate for the article talkpage Yes, I think of all of them Marcella Detroit and Bernie Nolan should be the final two. You say "older ladies"; interestingly (or perhaps not!) they bracket me in age - Detroit was 50 in June 2009, Nolan turns 50 in October 2010 and I was 50 last Wednesday! However even Kym Marsh seems to be improving week by week - she seems to be gaining in confidence. The female singers seem altogether more confident than the men. Somebody please tell Danny Jones that it's much harder to sing quietly than loudly - he always improves in the second half of an aria when he gains confidence and puts more power into it.

As for Detroit and Nolan, though, they've both been in the music business for a very long time, and it shows. Detroit has one hell of a voice (to sing that Queen of the Night aria is a challenge for anyone, let alone a soprano turned 50, and she really looked the part) and Nolan's acting skills made that "Voi, che sapete" a delight, IMO - all that about "I have to act like a 15-year-old boy!" stuff and then she actually acted like one... Talent will out! I guess Darius will win, though. Cheers Tonywalton ^Talk 02:25, 2 February 2010 (UTC)

Damn. Wish I'd put money on it. Tonywalton ^Talk 02:17, 20 February 2010 (UTC)

Trouble is it's down to the Public Vote (unless you're a complete cynic and believe that it's down to whose management company greased whose palm the most); Darius is a modern pop star, Nolan is a has-been joke (not my view at all, but that's what the Voting Public were likeliest to say). As for Marcella Detroit - who? (Again, per the Voting Public - no matter that she's written songs for Clapton and has been performing for longer than some of the Voting Public have lived). Agreed, Darius has a good voice, once they realised his range is more bass than baritone, and he came across as a very likeable chap, but to me Nolan and Detroit were the two technically best at both acting and singing. As for rumours of Bocelli and Boyle, it's always best to report rumours (or to report reported rumours) as such, not as fact, IMV. Regards, Tonywalton ^Talk 02:39, 20 February 2010 (UTC)

Bocelli

Hi Ahmad. The reason I took off the opera link in the template is because it is unnecessary. Also, there does not need to be separate articles for each of his opera recordings. There are countless opera recordings by many singers but we do not have a page for every single one. This is different from albums because the albums are unique of Bocelli. The opera recordings are not. The reason I took off the awards page was because it is excessive. We do not need that much detail about every single award he has won ore been nominated for.--Tonalone (talk) 03:10, 28 February 2010 (UTC)

yes classical and opera are the same thing. opera is a type of classical music. take it from me. i'm an opera singer and have sung with joan sutherland--Tonalone (talk) 03:40, 28 February 2010 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Seth Aaron Henderson

The article Seth Aaron Henderson has been proposed for deletion because under Wikipedia policy, all biographies of living persons created after March 18, 2010, must have at least one source that directly supports material in the article.

You are now a Reviewer

Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, is currently undergoing a two-month trial scheduled to end 15 August 2010.

Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under pending changes. Pending changes is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial. The list of articles with pending changes awaiting review is located at Special:OldReviewedPages.

When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Wikipedia:Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.

If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Courcelles (talk) 02:31, 18 June 2010 (UTC)

Sales figure WP:OR on My Christmas

Hello, Ahmad. I hope you have started 2011 well.

I have reverted your insertion of sales figures on the My Christmas article. The reason is that you did not provide references for the 2010 totals (usual is to provide the current aggregate totals, at whatever time you can find them). Instead, you took some figures from Billboard/Nielsen and then added a number from SoundSpike to get some number for United States sales. In fact, the time periods of the two sources appear to overlap. There's also the serious problem that the two sources may well have differing methodologies of gathering information. For the Canada numbers, SoundSpike didn't report anything, so you just guessed and added a plus-sign to the 2009 total.

This kind of work is original research and is not useful here on Wikipedia. If (or when) Nielsen/BusinessWire publish the figures for 2010, you can just add those numbers into the article, replacing the 2009 totals currently there. In the meantime, you can expect similar attempts to add WP:OR material to get reverted. WP editors don't accept non-verifable data like that (it's against WP policy), which is why I removed it. I hope you understand. Happy editing (anyway)! — JohnFromPinckney (talk) 06:25, 2 January 2011 (UTC)

I'll do that then, Nielsen/BusinessWire should publish the 2010 numbers very soon.--Ahmad123987 (talk) 06:29, 2 January 2011 (UTC)

Minor characters of Days of our Lives

Please read WP:PLOT, and WP:NOTE regarding the character of Sonny Kiriakis on Minor characters of Days of our Lives. Plot trivia and useless info clutters up the pages and does not fit in the scope of an encyclopedia. Minor characters such as Sonny also do not deserve their own article per WP:NOTE. Rm994 (talk) 06:38, 7 December 2011 (UTC)

The only thing I'm struggling with is your definition of a minor character. What makes Sonny a minor character? I don't see how he is; he first of all has significance in the show's history as the first openly gay character, and secondly the actor who portrays him is under contract. If the article name would be changed to "Minor and Recurring Characters", or just "DOOL Characters" then it would make more sense. Also Sonny isn't the only one that doesn't belong in an article titled so; Melanie has been a character for a few years and is heavily present on the show. Chad also is heavily present on the show, yet they are defined as minor character by you, when the three characters in question are all defined as recurring by the show, and the actors who portray them are all under contract. Finally, if "Plot trivia and useless info clutters up the pages" then remove it for all the characters in the article not just Sonny's. Having more articles on Wiki is a good thing not a bad one, so when there are many things to say about a character why not give him his own page, he is notable enough, otherwise he would't have enough story-lines to even mention.--Ahmad123987 (talk) 07:07, 7 December 2011 (UTC)

Truth be told, most of the characters aren't notable to warrant separate articles. And that's not MY definition, it's the rules of the site. Notability comes from outside the realm of soap operas and to be honest, none of the these have it. Melanie and Chad have already had separate articles created about them, and have already been deleted in discussions. A majority of editors agreed that these characters did not warrant separate articles. I assure you, the same thing would happen to Sonny. It's not personal...Personally, I believe they all should have articles, especially Sonny, because of the gay thing, but that's not how this site works. Rm994 (talk) 17:39, 7 December 2011 (UTC)

Fair enough--Ahmad123987 (talk) 19:09, 7 December 2011 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Template:2010 Kennedy Center Honorees

A tag has been placed on Template:2010 Kennedy Center Honorees requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section T3 of the criteria for speedy deletion because it is a deprecated or orphaned template. After seven days, if it is still unused and the speedy deletion tag has not been removed, the template will be deleted.

If the template is intended to be substituted, please feel free to remove the speedy deletion tag and please consider putting a note on the template's page indicating that it must be substituted so as to avoid any future mistakes (<noinclude>{{substituted}}</noinclude>).

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by visiting the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, 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. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Bulwersator (talk) 04:58, 16 December 2011 (UTC)

Template:Olympic champions artistic gymnastics Men TC

I have created {{Olympic champions artistic gymnastics Men TC}} when {{Footer Olympic Champions in Artistic Gymnastics - Men's Team All-Around}} was still named {{Footer 2008 Olympic Gold Medalists Gymnastics Men}}. I have now replaced it.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 03:20, 7 August 2012 (UTC)

The Template is too long so I separated it in 5.--Ahmad123987 (talk) 03:31, 7 August 2012 (UTC)

I had forgotten to post that option at Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Olympics#Gymnastic_team_Champsionship_templates. I had considered splitting them, but it does not seem to be a common thing to do for international sporting events. It is common to split a template such as Template:Academy Award Best Actor because many actors would have dozens of templates with about hundred links and their bios are interwiki link heavy, causing them to approach the upper bound of interwikilinks allowable on a page. If all the templates at Jack Nicholson, Meryl Streep or Barbra Streisand had the full list they would probably go over the limit of links in a page. Even the most decorated Olympian (Michael Phelps) has mostly templates with about a dozen names and then a few relay templates. This template is more like {{Kentucky Derby Winners}} or {{Tour de France Yellow Jersey}} where even though the template itself presents more than 100 links, it is not likely to be included on any page that would have upwards of two or three thousand links in templates. Thus, we lose a lot of the navigation usage without the need to do so based on interwiki overload. I personally, think we should go back to the long single page.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 06:26, 7 August 2012 (UTC)

Look at the footer at the bottom, it makes it very easy to go from one template to the other. Also it's much clearer now and less busy, which is a good thing. It's organized, and just because another template isn't doesn't mean it's better, maybe the other one needs to be updated too. On Wiki whenever something is too long or busy it's always encouraged to split it. This is like the kennedy center template, where each year you have multiple winners, so it becomes extremely long when all are in one. I think it's much better now. (I created a category linking all of them together as well)--Ahmad123987 (talk) 06:32, 7 August 2012 (UTC)

Also it isn't relevant the have all in the same one, since it's different periods, it's unlikely for someone to medal in more then one, except those who medals on the limit years of course.--Ahmad123987 (talk) 06:34, 7 August 2012 (UTC)

And the links you provided are a lot less busy then the way this used to be, I mean you have groups each time, not one individual or a couple, so the template itself becomes pointless if you're just gonna have 100 names not neatly organized.--Ahmad123987 (talk) 06:38, 7 August 2012 (UTC)

This is the only Olympic Gymnastics template that is split. It might even be the only Olympic template that is split. I think, we should have uniformity and most of the others don't need to be split. Even something like {{Footer Olympic Champions 4x200 m Freestyle Relay Men}} doesn't need to be split. I think we should get comments at the Olympics talk page. What do you think.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 06:39, 7 August 2012 (UTC)

Sorry but the {{Footer Olympic Champions 4x200 m Freestyle Relay Men}} is about a fourth of the size of the way this template used to be. This is a unique case since it consists of very large groups in the past, which is what makes it impossible to have them all in one. You start with years where there were 20 people, who's names need to be listed, and then you end up with 2012 when 4 people were part of the team. If from the beginning about 4 people won each time, then I would agree about keeping it all together, because it would still be presentable and not that long, but that is not the case. All the templates you've showed me are MUCH shorter then the way this was.--Ahmad123987 (talk) 06:47, 7 August 2012 (UTC)

Yes I think more people weighing in would be an exellent idea, but please don't make any big edits for now, cause it took me a long time to organize all the templates, so if we go back I wanna make sure it's by popular vote. And even if we go back to all in the same template, it must be represented differently, because it really looked like unfinished work--Ahmad123987 (talk) 06:49, 7 August 2012 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of File:Bocelli Concert Central Park Poster.jpeg

The file File:Bocelli Concert Central Park Poster.jpeg has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Non-free concert poster being used in a WP:DECORATIVE manner in Concerto, One Night in Central Park#Background. The article when the file is being used is about the album that was recorded live at the concert and there's already a non-free image of the album cover being used for primary identification purposes in the main infobox. The use of the poster would be fine if used for a similar purpose in a stand-alone article about the concert itself, but it's basically be used in the album's article to "illustrate" the "Background" section. There's no real additional and significant encyclopedic value gained from seeing this poster since it itself isn't the subject of any sourced critical commentary and it pretty much contain basic descriptive information about the date, place and time of the concert superimposed over a photo of Bocelli and the New York city skyline. It's a nice poster perhaps, but it doesn't meet the standard of WP:NFC#CS required by WP:NFCC#8 to justify its non-free use in the article.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated files}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the file's talk page.
