Hi
You reverted my edit here, and said that an article needs to be created for Deaths in December 2012, but isn't there already an article for it?--Mjs1991 (talk) 06:58, 2 January 2013 (UTC)
- We don't put redirects on that page, which Deaths in December 2012 currently is. I and another editor take care of that on/around January 7. Thanks. — WylieCoyote 07:07, 2 January 2013 (UTC)
- Oh yes, now I understand. I apologize for that. Thanks. --Mjs1991 (talk) 07:10, 2 January 2013 (UTC)
- It's okay. Personally, I think it could be listed now, but we wait 7 days for those late reports, mainly for the main-year articles. Most people go to those before the Lists of deaths page. — WylieCoyote 07:15, 2 January 2013 (UTC)
- Oh yes, now I understand. I apologize for that. Thanks. --Mjs1991 (talk) 07:10, 2 January 2013 (UTC)
Deaths in December 2012
Hi, why not invert the December list already? The seven-day period does not really apply at the end of the year. Deaths in 2013 already has a separate list. Regards, WWGB (talk) 11:42, 2 January 2013 (UTC)
- Because this edit from last year took eight days. But if it doesn't matter, then I will do it. — WylieCoyote 11:52, 2 January 2013 (UTC)
Category:Best Film Satellite Award winners
Category:Best Film Satellite Award winners, and other similar categories which you created under Category:Satellite Award winners, have been nominated for possible deletion, merging, or renaming. If you would like to participate in the discussion, you are invited to add your comments at the category's entry on the Categories for discussion page. Thank you. --StarcheerspeaksnewslostwarsTalk to me 02:34, 3 January 2013 (UTC)
- Great, another week's Wiki-work shot to hell. — WylieCoyote 06:06, 3 January 2013 (UTC)
Very nice article - and particularly good as I guess you aren't too familiar with European racing? --Bcp67 (talk) 14:47, 5 January 2013 (UTC)
- Thanks! No, I'm not familiar and I didn't find much sourcing here in the States about him. If more pops up, I'll put it in. I'm thinking about adding a table of the known races with their lengths, but that would also require finding those that he didn't win. Thanks for stopping by! — WylieCoyote 15:04, 5 January 2013 (UTC)
- You should be able to find the info at the Racing Post website; www.racingpost.com - you can search for any horse in their database.--Bcp67 (talk) 15:22, 5 January 2013 (UTC)
- Seconding Bcp's comments. Just read about the old boy's death this morning. He had been on my "to do" list for ages. His race against the three-year-old filly Marling (he lost by a head) at Goodwood was one for the ages. Tigerboy1966 15:54, 5 January 2013 (UTC)
- Thanks, folks! Actually I didn't know about him until his red link popped up at Deaths in 2013 so I did it off the cuff of my sleeve. Once I got to his medical situation, I knew I was doing it for a good one. — WylieCoyote 16:03, 5 January 2013 (UTC)
Articles for deletion/Frank Morrone
Hi CAWylie, Thanks for your input. I put in a response to your comment on the page. Forgot to put it on your talk page. I put in a clarification for your Governor/Emmy comment. Not sure if this clears up the question for you. Being a Governor doesn't impact having an Emmy so I don't think it violates anything but please let me know if you think this is not clear or a problem. Also the Awards section is from a couple of sources and not only from ref#8 but I can remove the IMDB reference if it would be better. This is my first article so I'm not sure if there are any other items you would suggest I should correct. I didn't have the references in correctly at first but I think they should be okay now. I saw it was giving a stubs error so I removed the stubs categories. Think this is what the help section required. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! Pro999 (talk) 21:38, 5 January 2013 (UTC)Pro999
- It just barely passes not being a stub article. It appears you've done all that you can do for this one. (I know how it is, trying to find information.) I suggest Googling the individuals awards that don't have cites, if possible. I'm giving the AfD nom a "weak decline," meaning it no longer meets the original reasoning. The added Career section saves it, in my opinion. Good work! Hopefully his career continues and more can be added to it. (Sidenote: any TV show, movie, music work gets italicized, unless for an episode or song.) — WylieCoyote 00:59, 6 January 2013 (UTC)
- Thanks so much! This is very helpful. Wasn't sure how much detail to try to include. I'll check the italicized items and will see if there is anything I can add for the awards without cites. Pro999 (talk) 03:34, 6 January 2013 (UTC)Pro999 03:33, 6 January 2013 (UTC)
- Thanks for helping with the additional cites on the article. Appreciate it. - User:Pro999 05:32, 8 January 2013 (UTC)
- You're welcome. Obscure awards are hard to look up, but I got it down to a science, I think. It's all in the Google-search wording. Haha. — WylieCoyote 07:38, 8 January 2013 (UTC)
- Hi. Could you please take a look at the article for me. It cleared the deletion notice and now it has had another notice put onto it by the same editor. I'm not quite sure what is wrong with it and don't know what else I can do with it. I don't understand what they are asking for. Any input would be great. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pro999 (talk • contribs) 05:43, 15 January 2013 (UTC)
Selkirk
No problem. You just caught me going out to work so it'll be this evening (UK time) before I can take a proper look. Tigerboy1966 07:53, 8 January 2013 (UTC)
- No rush, except maybe traffic. It's 3am here in the States. — WylieCoyote 07:56, 8 January 2013 (UTC)
thanks for your feedback. I was not trying to sneak in another article under a different name (though it may have been misinterpreted that way) but mistyped my grandfather's christian name by mistake.
I did not understand the feedback on my original submission where it was declined with the following comment:
==
Submission declined on 13 October 2012 by France3470 (talk). We're sorry, but we cannot accept blank submissions. Please consider submitting to Wikipedia:Requested articles instead. If in fact you did include text within the article, but it isn't showing, please make sure that any extra text above your entry is removed, as it may be causing it to hide and not be shown to the reviewer.
==
I understood the 'blank submission' to mean that somehow what I had written could not be seen, and so I tried resubmitting with no success, and I could not get feedback from Wikipedia as to why the page was unacceptable. I therefore decided to resubmit the page from scratch but inadvertently introduced a typo, as described above. I have now edited the original submission as requested and hope that that page is acceptable.
- First, please sign your future messages with ~~~~. Second, here's your original submission. It's just a submission request with no article. Something must've happened in the original upload or you just messed up somehow. You've added to it since without re-submitting, which you can do by clicking the "When you are ready to resubmit, click here" part in the pink Decline box. (Every decline will have this, unless the decline from someone else is similar.) When you feel comfortable enough with the recent additions, you may re-submit. — WylieCoyote 23:13, 8 January 2013 (UTC)
Not sure I am doing this right since I am first time submitter. My article Promont was rejected as reading more like an advertisement. Could you be more specific? The only portion I can think might be advertisement-like is the section on Promont Today that refers to the museum. I have read other articles that refer similarly to current museums occupying historic structures. Do you have suggested wording? RoadSignGuy (talk) 03:21, 9 January 2013 (UTC)
- Hi Guy! Remove the Promont Today part that says "Please check the museum’s website for visitor information. Promont house is located at 906 Main Street (also known as Goshen Pike) Milford, OH 45150". Wikipedia is not a directory. Thanks and good luck! — WylieCoyote 03:59, 9 January 2013 (UTC)
- Thanks. Will do. RoadSignGuy (talk) 01:53, 10 January 2013 (UTC)
Alfie Fripp (RIP): DYK nomination
Thanks for your work. Please see Template:Did you know nominations/Alfie Fripp. Kiefer.Wolfowitz 01:00, 10 January 2013 (UTC)
- Thank you for your help and the DYK update! — WylieCoyote 01:38, 10 January 2013 (UTC)
About closing RFDs
My understanding is that when an RFD is closed because the redirect was turned into an article, the result is "Moot" not "Removed". FrankDev (talk) 04:37, 13 January 2013 (UTC)
Your comments on my recently submitted Damian Barr page
Hello CAWylie,
I just wanted to say thank you for reading through my article and leaving some helpful comments. I tried very hard to make it Wikipedia appropriate after reading as much of the guidelines on Wikipedia I could find, so useful to have some advice and suggestions when the article is declined.
Peterhutton (talk) 16:10, 14 January 2013 (UTC)
- Hello. You're welcome. We at AfC Review have tried to make it a point to leave notes, either in cleanup or in declining, to further help those new editors understand what needs to be done with new articles, rather than just give the boilerplate decline reason. Not all newcomers know the intricacies of an article. The important thing for you is to not take a decline personally, work on the article(s) in question, and re-submit if notable enough. Thanks for stopping by! — WylieCoyote 19:20, 14 January 2013 (UTC)
American actors, namely Ned Wertimer
There is no reason to remove someone from a television actor cat just because they acted in other mediums. The general way to deal with such things is to put people in all applicable medium categories.John Pack Lambert (talk) 22:38, 14 January 2013 (UTC)
- Which is something you failed to do with your original edit. — WylieCoyote 22:42, 14 January 2013 (UTC)
- The solution to which is to add more categories, not move someone up the tree. The person in question was clearly a television actor, so he should be in that category.John Pack Lambert (talk) 04:50, 15 January 2013 (UTC)
- Agreed, but he was also a stage actor AND a film actor, so limiting him to just "American television actor," as your previous edit did, is wrong. You act like you want ME to add cats and, last I checked, it was a WikiWORLD. — WylieCoyote 18:11, 15 January 2013 (UTC)
- It also appears from your talk page that you have had previous categorization issues and edit wars with others. I will not take up any more of my page with this discussion as I have better things to do. Ned Wertimer's cats will not be touched by me. — WylieCoyote 18:18, 15 January 2013 (UTC)
Date format
Hi! I saw this edit of yours. I restored the original date format. See WP:DATE. Please do not change the date format and remember most of the Japan-related articles use the mdy format. Thank you. Oda Mari (talk) 09:24, 16 January 2013 (UTC)
- Why are you calling me out, when others did the same??? — WylieCoyote 09:28, 16 January 2013 (UTC)
- His edit was adding information with wrong format and it could be a simple careless mistake that he didn't check the format, but your edit was changing format and it seemed to me an intentional edit. You should have checked the date format of the article. Oda Mari (talk) 14:08, 16 January 2013 (UTC)
- Still, you didn't have to come here and bitch me out. A simple edit summary explanation would have been fine. Had I known you would have done this, I would not have worked on Oshima's article at all. Last I checked, Wikipedia was place for everybody to edit, even for those who make mistakes, which I did, from lack of understanding. In future, if I see your name anywhere near an article, I will not edit it. — WylieCoyote 20:41, 16 January 2013 (UTC)
- Removed all my work from his page. — WylieCoyote 20:52, 16 January 2013 (UTC)
- I have to say I don't see why Oda Mari left this comment on your talk page. Thanks for your edits, and I hope you will see fit to restore the work you did. JoshuSasori (talk) 23:09, 16 January 2013 (UTC)
- Also please note this was the first time Oda Mari ever edited the article, she's never edited it before this. Also, there is no special restriction on date formats in Japan-related articles. Have a nice day. JoshuSasori (talk) 23:35, 16 January 2013 (UTC)
- Thanks, JoshuSasori. I see you have reverted the removal of my edits to his Awards section and that is fine, since that is proper Wiki-standard formatting. As for the date situation, I don't really care about which is correct, it's just her coming here to complain when a simple edit summary explanation would've sufficed. There are far worse offenses than mine on Wikipedia. — WylieCoyote 04:44, 17 January 2013 (UTC)
- I don't understand that either since Oda Mari has not edited the article at all prior to this event. But I know that she watches a lot of articles and reverts various edits. I don't know if she usually adds notes to User talk pages like this. It's great if people do all the work to make date formatting consistent and so on but frankly I often do not take the trouble to do it, if the date is legible and correct then that is enough I believe, and I will let people with a better eye for details than me resolve the remaining problems. Perhaps this makes me a careless editor. Thanks for your inputs. JoshuSasori (talk) 05:43, 17 January 2013 (UTC)
- Some editors hold to their beliefs and traditions, I suppose, as she must. Still, her coming here is unnecessary. As for you not getting involved in future possible edit wars, that's not carelessness, just tactful and smart. Thanks for stopping by! — WylieCoyote 06:07, 17 January 2013 (UTC)

Stray code
[1] At the beginning of the section. I'm not sure how to fix it? Enigmamsg 04:48, 17 January 2013 (UTC)
- I fixed it. That was coding from some hidden editor's note that someone chose to remove or wrote over with this edit but didn't get all of it. It happens. — WylieCoyote 05:29, 17 January 2013 (UTC)
AFC Ziad Ghanem
Thanks for your fixups to Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Ziad Ghanem. Unfortunately, it was a near-duplicate of Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Ziad Ghanem Fashion Designer from 2011, so I declined it. You may be interested in the comment I left explaining the "decline." davidwr/(talk)/(contribs)/(e-mail) 00:29, 22 January 2013 (UTC)
- Thanks but I only moved it from sandbox to AfC and cleaned it up. If Ziad Ghanem, fashion designer or actor, would've popped up as already being created, either in mainspace or at AfC, I would've removed the AfC request entirely and suggested work be done on AfC/Ziad Ghanem Fashion Designer. I'm aware duplicates get attempted for many different reasons, whether the submitter is aware of originals or not. Once I move articles from sandboxes, I don't care what happens to them at AfC. — WylieCoyote 04:27, 22 January 2013 (UTC)
Winner, Robert Michael ?
The removed reference stated "Copies of birth, marriage, civil partnership and death certificates are available from Camden Register Office - if the event took place in the present London Borough of Camden - or in the former St Pancras or Hampstead Registration Districts or some parts of Holborn." and specifies how to check and where to visit its Register, holding full details on purchase of (certified) copy of this certificate of birth, given a full name, date and place of birth. Freely available data, but not necessarily free of cost to check. To buy info, try on-line. Only way to check which of names, Michael or Robert, was given first, sorry. --Ricksy (talk) 07:30, 22 January 2013 (UTC)
- Thanks, but since Wikipedia is free to view and use by its readers, its sources should be as well. Also, sources should automatically take you to the source, without having to use extra search engines, which I didn't mind to fix elsewhere. I was wondering which came first...Michael or Robert, as some pubs vary, but I'm not paying to find out. — WylieCoyote 07:39, 22 January 2013 (UTC)
- It may remain kind of private; there can be annotations on any entry on registers, a transcription of (an old) Index won't reveal! You could pay £18 to search the historic register in person, but the information is only released on a certificate (£10 each). An easy link to the once quarterly released index is not definitive as the G.R.O., aims to be? I had put the reference (as per volume 1a, page 745 @ Hampstead) in my edit summary. Easier to have than an Obama birth certificate, methinks. Have a nice day! --Ricksy (talk) 08:54, 22 January 2013 (UTC)
- As I said, I don't think I nor any other reader would pay to verify which name is which. I also do not think Wikipedia would support such an action. And as an American who just watched my President in his second inauguration, please do not make such political comments on my page. Thanks for stopping by! — WylieCoyote 09:12, 22 January 2013 (UTC)

I work for Spartan Games and have permission to share the copyright. I have two questions: (1) How do I confirm with Wikipedia that I have the copyright and (2) Is my content that you deleted recoverable as that was almost a days work? Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Spartan Games. — Preceding unsigned comment added by SpartanGames (talk • contribs) 11:16, 22 January 2013 (UTC)
- Hello. Sorry for blanking the page but that is usually customary at AfC in the cases of those who copy/paste without permission. I have created a page with your original work and added it for your username. You can find it here. As for the copyright permission, please read this article, in particular, this section. There are several wikilinks (clickable blue words) to guide you where you need to go/what you need to do. If all else fails, just re-word the article to not sound verbatim with the website, and it will be fine. When the time comes for resubmission, I will guide you through that. — WylieCoyote 11:48, 22 January 2013 (UTC)
Thank you - that is much appreciated. I will follow these instructions and look forward to your guidance once the time comes for resubmission. SpartanGames (talk) 11:56, 22 January 2013 (UTC)
- You're welcome. To make things easier, I have restored your original work at the AfC article and changed my note there. Other reviewers should leave it alone, for a while. — WylieCoyote 12:02, 22 January 2013 (UTC)
Excellent. I will get to work.SpartanGames (talk) 12:08, 22 January 2013 (UTC)
Litvinova
I have nominated the article for DYK here, since it is a new article and also a recent death, I added all contributors' name for attribution which they have removed. Feel free to change/suggest a new hook!
PS. Last time I counted the article had 1650 or so prose characters (DYK requirement is 1500 characters)! --Tito Dutta (talk) 08:31, 23 January 2013 (UTC)
- There are doubts on her age (2 sources say she died at the age of 29, 1 sources says 30), that's why I haven't added it in the hook! --Tito Dutta (talk) 08:34, 23 January 2013 (UTC)
- Cool, thanks for the heads up. And I'm looking for a specific birthdate, surely some source would have one. — WylieCoyote 08:38, 23 January 2013 (UTC)
- No result in web (Russian and English)! --Tito Dutta (talk) 08:41, 23 January 2013 (UTC)
- But, I searched yesterday! It'll be fine if you can find birthdate! I thought to add a {{Citation needed}} tag for birth year, then changed mind for this DYK nom. --Tito Dutta (talk) 08:45, 23 January 2013 (UTC)
- I had thought the Miss Universe website would have it, but they begin at 2009 with their entrants and only list the age at the time. I know Russian topics on the 'net are hard to come by, but someone like her and her career should have more. — WylieCoyote 08:51, 23 January 2013 (UTC)

Article on KC Cole
Hi CAWylie,
I was hoping you could take another look at the KC Cole article? I've made significant changes and feel that it is ready.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:Articles_for_creation/KC_Cole
Thanks, Benjamin max (talk) 22:56, 24 January 2013 (UTC)
- The added sources help. To re-submit, click on "When you are ready to resubmit, click here" in the decline box. We'll see what others say about it. — WylieCoyote 04:53, 25 January 2013 (UTC)

Death Anomalies
Hi CAWylie, if you fix a death anomaly as you did today you are very welcome to remove it from the list, rather than just renaming it. ϢereSpielChequers 13:10, 25 January 2013 (UTC)
- Thanks, didn't know that, but thought as much. He'll probably get moved again anyway. — WylieCoyote 13:12, 25 January 2013 (UTC)

Hi Wylie, thanks for the barnstar and thanks for helping to simplify the refs. I really hope this speeds up the page loading. Regards, WWGB (talk) 04:30, 28 January 2013 (UTC)

you have two January 3 and no January 2! WWGB (talk) 05:54, 28 January 2013 (UTC)

- If you notice, I'm doing this manually without the aid of a bot. Know where I can buy one? My eyes are crossing. — WylieCoyote 06:02, 28 January 2013 (UTC)
Regarding Oijl
Hi, I saw the message you left on Oijl's talk page. I thought I should let you know that he/she went ahead and remade Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Carolyn Brent / Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Delete Me as a mainspace article, see Carolyn A Brent. Cheers, — dain- talk 23:10, 28 January 2013 (UTC)
- Thanks for the heads up, but next time, the original needs worked on, instead of making two duplicates, which will now have to be CSD'ed. Most people at AfC do not catch duplicates in time or just let them be made, which wastes others' time and Wiki-space. — Wyliepedia 03:08, 29 January 2013 (UTC)
- "But next time..." huh? They aren't my articles, just something I noticed that that other person did. — dain- talk 03:19, 29 January 2013 (UTC)
- I understand. Thanks again for letting me know. I informed Oijl. — Wyliepedia 03:33, 29 January 2013 (UTC)

RE proposed Leslie Frankenheimer DYK
OK. If you think so. Yours, Quis separabit? 16:40, 29 January 2013 (UTC)
- What's up with the DYK. Did you change your mind? Quis separabit? 21:13, 5 February 2013 (UTC)
- Apologies, I got distracted offline and I didn't have her on my watchlist. It's too late for the DYK nom, as the cutoff time is within 5 days of article creation. So sorry. But we did an excellent edit job on the article! — Wyliepedia 00:31, 6 February 2013 (UTC)

Frank Morrone article
Hi CAWylie, Was hoping, if you had a chance, you could take a look at the article and see if you could make some suggestions. It's been tagged with lacking citations and neutrality. It has so many references now I'm not sure what would add to it or how to address the neutrality comment. If you can make any contributions or suggestions it would be great. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pro999 (talk • contribs) 20:34, 31 January 2013 (UTC)
DYK Nom for Jake McNiece
Hi CAWylie,
- I've put another paragraph of info in the article under the heading "Other honors" (its over 300 char). Can you forward this fact to the nom page?–Kiwipat (talk) 07:29, 1 February 2013 (UTC)
- I could, but you can easily do it at Template:Did you know nominations/Jake McNiece. Just copy-paste what you put here below the last comment. Thanks! — Wyliepedia 07:34, 1 February 2013 (UTC)
- Hi, I've found a link to the Ponca City News newspaper with the obit article in it (pdf), and replaced the dead link. Regards–Kiwipat (talk) 21:02, 1 February 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading File:AmericanSeriesTeaser.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Hazard-Bot (talk) 04:19, 2 February 2013 (UTC)

Congrats on Jim Muri DYK
Hey, I saw where your DYK picked up almost 18,000 hits today. That should put it on the all time list. Nice job! Sarnold17 (talk) 03:19, 12 February 2013 (UTC)
- Good-googly-moogly! I saw earlier where it had a mere 2,000 hits or so. Thanks for the heads up! It's all in the hook and our crafty editing! It looks like someone added "along the line of" to the flight deck part, but I guess that's okay. — Wyliepedia 03:24, 12 February 2013 (UTC)

Great job in creating the article! I had it in my sandbox all week to start and got deathly ill and couldn't do much of anything. Thanks for keeping the Saturns alive! — Wyliepedia 05:59, 23 February 2013 (UTC)
Kaal Madhumas
Hi,
You declined the article about the film Kaal Madhumas with the reference to "Wikipedia is not a crystal ball" I am unsure what makes you think the sources are a collection of unverifiable speculation. This is not an anticipated event. The shooting of the film is about to complete and I have put reference to all these with proper press releases. Can you please be a bit more specific what is the exact reason for the decline so that I may work on that aspect to provide evidence. awesomeme111 05:32, 8 March 2013 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Awesomeme111 (talk • contribs)
- Hi. If you would click the WP:CRYSTAL link I gave at the article, you will find this: "Individual scheduled or expected future events should be included only if the event is notable and almost certain to take place. Dates are not definite until the event actually takes place." Here in America, movies get pushed out all the time and the original expected date may not happen. If you wish to continue seeking another reviewer's opinion, you can either re-submit the article or ask at at the help desk. Thank you. — Wyliepedia 05:44, 8 March 2013 (UTC)
- P.S.I am also longer a member at AfC so do not ask anything further regarding submissions. — Wyliepedia 10:01, 9 March 2013 (UTC)
Article Feedback deployment
Hey CAWylie; I'm dropping you this note because you've used the article feedback tool in the last month or so. On Thursday and Friday the tool will be down for a major deployment; it should be up by Saturday, failing anything going wrong, and by Monday if something does :). Thanks, Okeyes (WMF) (talk) 23:12, 13 March 2013 (UTC)
- I check it from time to time and hadn't planned on doing so for a while, but thanks for the heads up! — Wyliepedia 23:36, 14 March 2013 (UTC)
Citing Non-Digital Sources
Hello --
Thanks for your help. I have been away from this article for some time, due to family emergencies. Please forgive the delay.
I have begun revising the references to include access dates and, where available, page numbers and URLs. However, many of of my sourcs are print editions of periodicals from the 1990s and early 2000s, so they are not clickable online. In some cases, I have copies of the articles, but the page number is cut off. I can therefore cite everything about the source but its exact page number.
Please advise how I should advance with these sources and if I have done the first few revisions to meet Wikipedia's standards.

Thank you!

Can you give this article an assessment? Also, Cheers (season 2)? --George Ho (talk) 18:31, 26 April 2013 (UTC)
- Okay but this really belongs at Wikipedia:WikiProject Television/Assessment, especially since there is no gratitude. -- Wyliepedia 04:47, 27 April 2013 (UTC)

Hello, I'm BracketBot. I have automatically detected that your edit to List of Revolution episodes may have broken the syntax by modifying 1 "{}"s. If you have, don't worry, just edit the page again to fix it. If I misunderstood what happened, or if you have any questions, you can leave a message on my operator's talk page.

TemplateData is here
Hey CAWylie
I'm sending you this because you've made quite a few edits to the template namespace in the past couple of months. If I've got this wrong, or if I haven't but you're not interested in my request, don't worry; this is the only notice I'm sending out on the subject :).
So, as you know (or should know - we sent out a centralnotice and several watchlist notices) we're planning to deploy the VisualEditor on Monday, 1 July, as the default editor. For those of us who prefer markup editing, fear not; we'll still be able to use the markup editor, which isn't going anywhere.
What's important here, though, is that the VisualEditor features an interactive template inspector; you click an icon on a template and it shows you the parameters, the contents of those fields, and human-readable parameter names, along with descriptions of what each parameter does. Personally, I find this pretty awesome, and from Monday it's going to be heavily used, since, as said, the VisualEditor will become the default.
The thing that generates the human-readable names and descriptions is a small JSON data structure, loaded through an extension called TemplateData. I'm reaching out to you in the hopes that you'd be willing and able to put some time into adding TemplateData to high-profile templates. It's pretty easy to understand (heck, if I can write it, anyone can) and you can find a guide here, along with a list of prominent templates, although I suspect we can all hazard a guess as to high-profile templates that would benefit from this. Hopefully you're willing to give it a try; the more TemplateData sections get added, the better the interface can be. If you run into any problems, drop a note on the Feedback page.
