Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to Wikipedia, at least one of your recent edits, such as the one you made to I am... Sasha Fierce, did not appear to be constructive and has been reverted. Why Don't You Love Me (song) is not a single. Thank you. Tbhotch^{Talk C.} 18:37, 6 May 2010 (UTC)

miss taiwan's title

dear sir or madam: please do not unilaterally changed the title and flag of miss taiwan in miss universe page. although miss taiwan was required to use chinese taipei in 2003 and 2004, but according to news report that they were also allowed to use miss taiwan sash out off stage. thus, i editted miss taiwan(chinese taipei). i believe the way i did is very fair and objective. when i made the change long time ago, the page's editor agreed with me, so why my edit stay still until recently you changed. please stop any edit if you can't provide enough citation. thanks 台灣護士 (talk) 05:09, 9 May 2010 (UTC)

1990 Eurovision

Please, if you are going to make changes to several articles regarding the 1990 Eurovision Song Contest results, you need to cite your changes. I can see your reasoning, but unfortunately, your changes are WP: Original research and not certified by the references given. Ireland were listed as joint 2nd and until an announcement is made by the EBU to affect this change, we must abide by it as well. Thank you.--Tuzapicabit (talk) 23:03, 15 May 2010 (UTC)

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. When you make a change to an article, please provide an edit summary, which you forgot to do before saving your recent edit to Wushu at the 2009 Asian Martial Arts Games. Doing so helps everyone to understand the intention of your edit. It is also helpful to users reading the edit history of the page. Thank you. Trafford09 (talk) 18:23, 17 August 2010 (UTC)

TOTD

Tip of the day... Please summarize your work using the Edit summary box If you make anything other than a minor edit to an article, it helps others if you fill in the edit summary. Edit summaries are visible in the page history, watchlists, and on Recent changes, so they help other users keep track of what is happening to a page. If you use section editing, the summary box is filled in with the section heading by default (in gray text), which you can follow with more detail. You also can put links to articles in the edit summary. Just put double brackets around [[the article title]] like you would normally. The summary is limited to 255 characters, so many people use common abbreviations, such as sp for correcting spelling mistakes, rm for remove, ce for copy-edit, etc. Prior tip – Tips library – Next tip Read more: Edit summary

Dear Trafford09, I usually edit in the wikipedia in the portuguese language (my first language) and i have a small knowledge in the English language,but when i have a knowlegde in certain theme i put the information.

I have many problems about the english language like many latin language speakers and because this i don´t use the sumaries,it´s hard to write,but easy to speak english.

Daniel Callegaro (fala! status)02:30, 09 November 2010 (UTC)

Hello Daniel. It's good to talk to you - thank you for discussing this. I think that if you want the right to edit on English Wikipedia, you must accept the responsibility that comes with it - that is: to Help:Edit_summary#Always provide an edit summary. So, the question is: is your English good enough for you to edit on English Wikipedia?

I think that your English is quite good (much better than my Portuguese - and I would not edit on Portuguese Wikipedia). You expressed yourself above very well - I understood everything that you wrote. So, I would say you are ok to continue editing on English Wikipedia - provided that you supply edit summaries (ES's).

I'm sure you could do that. For instance, let's take your last 3 edits, and see what you could have added as edit summaries:

• A good ES for this edit would have been "Added Portuguese".
• A good ES for this edit would have been "c-e etc.". (c-e is short for copy-edit, e.g. a minor spelling correction.)
• A good ES for this edit would have been "added the day".

So, you see, it's not difficult, and your English is quite good enough to do that, do you not agree?

Best wishes, Trafford09 (talk) 08:31, 10 November 2010 (UTC)

I think your real problem is that you just do not like supplying edit summaries - in any language - including your edits on Portuguese WP? Trafford09 (talk) 08:58, 10 November 2010 (UTC)

Two points

1. Northern Ireland doesn't have a flag and as per the Irish Manual of Style please do not add one unless you can provide a reference that the organising body uses a flag.

2. Please consider reading Help:Edit summary and provide a clear reason for all of your edits (example here of not leaving a reason).

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. Before saving your changes to an article, please provide an edit summary, which you forgot to do before saving your recent edit to 1996 Summer Olympics. Doing so helps everyone understand the intention of your edit (and prevents legitimate edits from being mistaken for vandalism). It is also helpful to users reading the edit history of the page. Thank you. 4twenty42o (talk) 04:57, 8 July 2011 (UTC)

Ditto for the 1988, 1992, 2000 and 2004 Olympics. I've undone all those edits as there was no explaination for removing the content - Basement12 (T.C) 08:54, 8 July 2011 (UTC)

Venue of the 2012 Eurovision Song Contest

Please do not add Baku Crystal Hall as the confirmed venue in the Eurovision Song Contest 2012 article or elsewhere. The EBU have explicitly stated that the venue for the contest has not been confirmed yet, although Baku Crystal Hall is one of the options. Oikotimes is sometimes used a source in Eurovision articles, but its reliability remains disputed, and it should not override EBU (Eurovision.tv) sources. Please see the discussion at Talk:Eurovision Song Contest 2012#Venue is confirmed. CT Cooper · talk 23:30, 5 September 2011 (UTC)

Removal of San Marino from JESC 2012 article

Is there any reason as to why San Marino has been removed from Junior Eurovision Song Contest 2012? A reliable source was used as a link, and a reasonable paragraph included, which explained the inclusion for "possibles", which are permitted in the article as long as they are sourced, and explained. There was a mini-discussion on the article talk page. Before removing or adding content, always check on the article talk page, to see if there are any details which could be important. In the meantime, I shall revert the removal, until we know more. Thanks - Wesley Mouse (talk) 23:53, 1 December 2011 (UTC)

Eurovision Song Contest 2012: Your entry of Poland Withdrawal

Dear Daniel, Please could you revert your recent edit on Eurovision Song Contest 2012 regarding Poland withdrawal. There is an ongoing discussion at Talk:Eurovision_Song_Contest_2012#Polish_withdrawal regarding this matter, including a full explanation as to why the article isn't including details of the alleged Poland withdrawal at this present time. TVP haven't announced anything about ESC2012 on their official website. The ESCToday, Oikotimes, and ESCDaily have all cited themselves as source of their own published information - which is against WP:NPOV. TVP announced on their Facebook that they haven't given ANY press release to media sources regarding their decision for ESC 2012. TVP1 (a television channel belonging to TVP) have stated that they no longer wish to broadcast the event. TVP (the network on a whole) are looking into switching the broadcasting rights to one of their other television stations. Until an official statement by either TVP (on their official website) or by the EBU (via Eurovision.tv) has been released, then Poland should remain as a "possible withdraw". Otherwise everyone is going to be undergoing unnecessary edit warring, and facing blocks for no reason. We're only in a situation similar to Slovakia's participation in 2011, when they announced they were in, and then withdrawing, only to be back in again. Thank You - Wesley Mouse (talk) 23:51, 19 December 2011 (UTC)

I sincerely advise that you participate in the article talk page, before continuing adding information about Poland's withdrawal. Oikotimes are an unreliable source, and shouldn't be used whatsoever (unless they cited a reliable source in their own articles). Disruptions of this nature are slowly breaching edit warring territory which is unacceptable, and can resort in users being blocked. Wesley Mouse (talk) 00:07, 20 December 2011 (UTC)

Caro Daniel, Por favor você poderia reverter sua edição recente no Festival Eurovisão da Canção 2012 em relação a retirada da Polónia. Há uma discussão em curso em Discussão:Eurovision_Song_Contest_2012 # Polish_withdrawal sobre este assunto, incluindo uma explicação completa a respeito de porque o artigo não está incluindo detalhes da retirada Polônia alegada no tempo presente. TVP não anunciamos nada sobre ESC2012 em seu site oficial. O ESCToday, Oikotimes e ESCDaily têm-se todos citados como fonte de suas próprias informações - o que é contra a Ponto de vista neutro. TVP anunciou em seu Facebook que não deram qualquer comunicado de imprensa a fontes de mídia em relação à sua decisão para CES 2012. TVP1 (um canal de televisão pertencente a TVP) têm afirmado que já não deseja transmitir o evento. TVP (a rede em um todo) está olhando para mudar os direitos de transmissão para uma de suas outras estações de televisão. Até que uma declaração oficial por qualquer TVP (em seu site oficial) ou pela UER (via Eurovision.tv) foi lançado, em seguida, a Polônia deveria permanecer como uma "possível retirada". Caso contrário todo mundo vai estar passando por editar desnecessários em guerra, e de frente para os blocos sem nenhum motivo. Estamos apenas em uma situação semelhante à participação da Eslováquia em 2011, quando eles anunciaram que estavam, e depois retirar, apenas para estar de volta novamente. Eu sinceramente aconselho que você participa na página de discussão do artigo, antes de continuar a recolher informação sobre a retirada da Polónia. Oikotimes são uma fonte confiável, e não deve ser usado de qualquer natureza (a não ser que citou uma fonte confiável em seus próprios artigos). Interrupções desta natureza estão lentamente editar violar território em guerra o que é inaceitável, e pode recorrer em usuários sendo bloqueados. Obrigado - Wesley Mouse (talk) 00:44, 20 December 2011 (UTC)

Various naming alterations

Daniel, I've noticed that you've done a variety of naming alterations across various Eurovision articles; changing English written text into Azerbaijani text. This isn't really permitted per guidelines at WP:ENGLISH, as this is the English version of Wikipedia, then articles need to be titled using the English alphabet; unless circumstances are decided upon via the method of talk page discussion. Also when you made the page move for Leyla Aliyeva (presenter) to Leyla Əliyeva (presenter), an official request for move should have been submittedc first at WP:RM, so that a discussion can take place between other editors, to see if the move is supported or opposed. As this hasn't been done, I have made a request to the help desk, for admin to revert the move; to keep things within scope as per WP:ENGLISH. Thanks - Wesley☀Mouse 23:43, 16 April 2012 (UTC)

Leyla Əliyeva (presenter) has been moved back to Leyla Aliyeva (presenter), and Leyla Əliyeva back to Leyla Aliyeva.--ukexpat (talk) 01:31, 17 April 2012 (UTC)

Manual of style for Eurovision Song Contest 2012 article

Hi Daniel,

When you made this edit to Eurovision Song Contest 2012, you added the full address for the venue, which isn't really needed per manual of style for Eurovision articles. Your edit has subsequently been reverted, as the project decided that the sufficient way to detail venues on Eurovision articles is by "arena, city, country". So in this case, sufficient information would be "Baku Crystal Hall, Baku, Azerbaijan"; and no need to mention National Flag Square. Please make sure you adhere to this style on similar related articles. Many thanks - Wesley☀Mouse 20:54, 5 May 2012 (UTC)

WikiProject Eurovision: This is a reminder to all members of Project Eurovision, that there is still an ongoing RfC discussion taking place at the project talk page. It is vital that everyone participates in this discussion, as it concerns the future manual of style and article layout in regards to Eurovision Song Contest by Year and Junior Eurovision Song Contest by Year articles.

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 Eurovision Song Contest 2013, makes articles harder to read. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. The context added in regards to Armenia, is suppose to be there to add more details to the non-Eurovision fan about Armenia. This I have only just found out should be done on articles per WP:MOS. Wesley☀Mouse 20:09, 18 June 2012 (UTC)

Message from the Editorial Team Bienvenue! Willkommen! Welcome! Please be warm-hearted in encouraging everyone to do their best to contribute to all Eurovision-related Wikipedia articles, and welcome our new members to the project. It is easy for editors to get into conflict with each other, and things can get very nasty on the most trivial of issues, whether that be on the language of songs, the names of certain countries, or how we deal with incidents at the contest. In such circumstances it is worth remembering one thing: we are all here to build an encyclopedia, and the contribution of Eurovision to human knowledge can only be given justice if we work together and make articles, not drama! If you would like something to appear in the August 2012 Edition of the newsletter, then please inform us at the Project Newsdesk. If there is an article you think we should have? Request it here. Happy editing! Project News When creating new articles about a performer or song, please remember to add sources either from Eurovision.tv, ESCToday or other reliable sources. If you're not sure a source is reliable enough, then ask the project for an opinion. Remember to only add content to articles that is relevant to the article's main subject. Anything not in relation to the article may be questioned and/or subject to redirection to an article that would benefit it's inclusion. Again if in doubt, ask on the article or project talk pages for an opinion - communication is an important tool. On the subject of communication, please make use of the article talk pages. They are a vital tool in conducting consensus talks of additions of proposed new sections and/or removal of unnecessary section. If you don't use these pages to put across your views, then you only have yourself to blame if actions are taken that you disagree with and you end up wandering into edit warring territory. The 2012 season of Eurovision has drawn to a close, and we now start preparations for the 2013 edition. While things will be slow to start of with, now is the ideal opportunity to do a clean-up exercise across articles relating to the project. There's over 4,500 articles associated with the project. If you happen to see a Eurovision related article without the {{EurovisionNotice}} template on the article's talk page, please add it. You can also read Wikipedia:Version 1.0 Editorial Team/Assessment if you would like to help assess or reassess articles in our project if you see that they have outgrown their current assessment. There is currently one unassessed article. And finally... a massive thank you to all members of the project for your constant hard work on collaborating and contributing to Eurovision related articles. Keep up the good work team! Project Alerts Please remember to keep checking the project articles that have been flagged up as an alert. Since our last publication the following alerts have flagged up: good article nominees - Eurovision Song Contest 2012 requests for comment - Blue and Project Eurovision	Headlines Project Gossip The RfC discussion in regards to article layout, is still taking place on the project talk page.

Welcome to Wikipedia. Please be aware of Wikipedia's policy that biographical information about living persons must not include unsupported or inaccurate statements. Whenever you add possibly controversial statements about a living person to an article or any other Wikipedia page, as you did to Eurovision Song Contest 1985, you must include proper sources. If you don't know how to cite a source, you may want to read Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners for guidelines. Thank you. Wesley☀Mouse 00:01, 10 July 2012 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for July 13

Hi. When you recently edited Brazil at the Olympics, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Anderson Rodrigues (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).

Independent Olympic Athlete at the 2012 Summer Olympics

Hi, Daniel. This is just a notification that I have merged the material from Independent Olympic Athlete at the 2012 Summer Olympics into the article Independent Olympic Participants at the 2012 Summer Olympics, and will be nominating that first article for speedy deletion here shortly. This is just a minor clean-up task so we don't have multiple articles duplicating the same topic. The material you wrote and contributed is fine, and I'd like to thank you for your contributions! Evanh2008 ^{(talk|contribs)} 01:53, 22 July 2012 (UTC)

Okay, now I'm not sure what's going on. I think I might have been wrong about the distinction between IOA and IOP. I started a thread at Talk:2012 Summer Olympics to clarify this, and have withdrawn my CSD nomination of the article until I know more. Cheers! Evanh2008 ^{(talk|contribs)} 02:15, 22 July 2012 (UTC)

Hello, Daniel Callegaro. You have new messages at Talk:Independent Olympic Participants at the 2012 Summer Olympics.
You can remove this notice at any time by removing the {{Talkback}} or {{Tb}} template.

Proposed deletion of Independent Olympic Athlete at the 2012 Summer Olympics

The article Independent Olympic Athlete at the 2012 Summer Olympics has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

the article's content is duplicated at Independent Olympic Participants at the 2012 Summer Olympics

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

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

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

HOME • TALK • PORTAL • NEWSDESK • ARCHIVES
Message from the Editorial Team Bienvenue! Willkommen! Welcome! Please be warm-hearted in encouraging everyone to do their best to contribute to all Eurovision-related Wikipedia articles, and welcome our new members to the project. The past month has been an eventful one for the project as a whole. Old dramas have closed, new ones have begun. Four articles nominated for GA review, three of them passed and promoted, with one of them making ProjectEurovision history by being the first annual contest article to ever achieve GA status. If it wasn't for the hard work and the many hours of team collaborations that we have endured on this project, then those accolades would never have been gained. Each of those article promotions are as a result of your continuous determination to be part of the best team this project has seen for a long time. There is a teamwork barnstar with this newsletter for you to cherish and you may display the award on your pages if you wish. Now we look to the months ahead and start preparations for Malmo 2013, and see if we can work to getting another annual article to GA status. Here's to you - the team of excellence. If you would like something to appear in the September 2012 Edition of the newsletter, then please inform us at the Project Newsdesk. If there is an article you think we should have? Request it here. And finally... a massive thank you to all members of the project for your constant hard work on collaborating and contributing to Eurovision related articles. Keep up the good work team! Happy editing!
Headlines Page Milestones Malmö Arena was promoted to GA status on 15 July 2012 Eurovision Song Contest 2012 was promoted to GA status on 16 July 2012 Lena Meyer-Landrut was promoted to GA status on 22 July 2012 Project Alerts Please remember to keep checking the project articles that have been flagged up as an alert. Since our last publication the following alerts have flagged up: Anggun is currently a GA nominee as of 19 July 2012. Eurovision Song Contest - MALMÖ 2013 File:Eurovision Song Contest 2013.svg So far 21 countries have confirmed participation for the Eurovision Song Contest 2013, which is scheduled to take place in Sweden. Please remember to only cite reliable sources when adding countries to the article. On 8 July 2012 Malmö Arena in the city of Malmö was confirmed as the host venue for Eurovision Song Contest 2013. Junior Eurovision Song Contest - AMSTERDAM 2012 The tenth edition of the Junior Eurovision Song Contest is scheduled to take place on the 1 December 2012, in Amsterdam, Netherlands. Details about confirmed participation are slowly filtering out into the world wide web. Please cite reliable sources when including new information. Israel announced on 10 July 2012 that they will make their début in Amsterdam. Thus bringing the total number of confirmed participant to 9 countries so far. The contest needs a minimum of eleven in order for the show to continue. The EBU had extended the submission deadline to 29 June 2012, although no further details in regards to the contest has been released. Asiavision Song Contest - SEOUL 2012 File:Our Sound - The Asia-Pacific Song Contest logo.svg After several postponements, the first contest is now scheduled to take place in the South Korean capital of Seoul; on 14 October 2012. Could all members please find any reliable sources on participants etc, so that we can consider creating an article for this event. Eurovision Young Musicians - VIENNA 2012 On 11 May 2012, Norwegian, Eivind Holtsmark Ringstad, won the 16th Eurovision Young Musicians 2012, in Vienna, Austria. This is a biennial event, and the next contest will take place in 2014, with Vienna most likely to be the host nation for a fifth consecutive time. Eurovision Young Dancers - OSLO 2011 The next contest is scheduled to take place in 2013 - the host city is expected to be announced towards the end of 2012. Eurovision Dance Contest - GLASGOW 2008 Glasgow were the hosts of the Eurovision Dance Contest 2008, and since then there have been no announcements of the contest continuing with a third edition.	Project Gossip The RfC discussion in regards to article layout, is still taking place on the project talk page. Could all members please ensure that they participate in the discussion so that we can all agree on important article structure issues. If you don't take part, then you only have yourselves to blame if a consensus is passed that you disagree with. Project News Project 1 - Contest by year and contest related pages involves: A page for each year's contest Improving/maintaining all the contest related pages in the project. Project 2 - Contestants and songs involves: Creating a page for each contestant and song involved in the contest. Project 3 - "Country" in the contest involves: Creating a page for each participating country in the contest. This will give information about a country's efforts and achievements in Eurovision. Project 4 - "Country" in the contest "year" involves: Creating a page for each country participating in the contest each year. This will give information about the year in Eurovision for that country, like how the song was chosen (selection events), how well it did, any other information about its participation that year. Project 5 - Sourcing involves: On Wikipedia, it is very important not only to have the correct information, but to show where you got it from so it can be verified. Editor's should be finding additional sources to reference information with. This project also includes checking all similar pages to make sure things are consistent across the board and correcting any errors. A listing of pages marked for some sort of cleanup is available here. When creating new articles about a performer or song, please remember to add sources either from Eurovision.tv, ESCToday or other reliable sources. If you're not sure a source is reliable enough, then ask others members of the project. Project 6 – Assessment involves: Assessing project pages. The first thing to do to assess an article is to add {{EurovisionNotice}}, the project banner, to the talk page of an article if it does not have one. If an article already has a banner, you should assess the article using the assessment scale. Assessing articles gives us a good idea about the quality of the articles in our project and can help identify short comings. Communication involves: Remember to only add content to articles that is relevant to the article's main subject. Anything not in relation to the article may be questioned and/or subject to redirection to an article that would benefit it's inclusion. Again if in doubt, ask on the article or project talk pages for an opinion - communication is an important tool. On the subject of communication, please make use of the article talk pages. They are a vital tool in conducting consensus talks of additions of proposed new sections and/or removal of unnecessary section. If you don't use these pages to put across your views, then you only have yourself to blame if actions are taken that you disagree with and you end up wandering into edit warring territory.

WikiProject Eurovision: Recent changes

Hello,

Please note that there have been some changes to operations surrounding Eurovision articles, these being that:

• Template names have now been modernised and/or megred into super-templates, for example Countries in the Eurovision Song Contest has now been merged into Template:Eurovision Song Contest making it even easier to find everything under one template. If you are planning to create a new template, please keep the standardised titles in mind. Other templates have been modernised and a full list of them can be found here.
• The Eurovision Song Contest and Junior Eurovision Song Contest articles have now been standardised to keep a consitancy throughout the project and to the genral reader too. Skeleton article drafts can be found for Eurovision Song Contest by Year and Junior Eurovision Song Contest by Year.

If you have any questions, please ask at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Eurovision.

You are receiving this message since you are listed as a member of WikiProject Eurovision. If you are no longer interested in contributing to Eurovision articles, please remove your username from this page.

Message from the Editorial Team Bienvenue! Willkommen! Welcome! Please be warm-hearted in encouraging everyone to do their best to contribute to all Eurovision-related Wikipedia articles, and welcome our new members to the project. Remember that this project can only operate if we act in a cooperative manner and engage in discussions regarding article matters. It is seen as best practice to put forward ideas to other members of the project before rushing ahead and acting on a potential falsifying action. If you feel an article may warrant a deletion, why not test the waters by opening a discussion on the article's talk page or our very own project talk page - before rushing off and submitting an AfD. It saves wasting time nominating an article for deletion which could end up with an overwhelming "keep" by other editors. Communicating with each other is a vital tool and a skill that may prove advantageous in real-life scenarios. Also be on the look out for potential new members to the project. Post {{subst:EurovisionInvite}} (which will produced this template) on any user page you think is interested to join the WikiProject, to officially invite them to join. If you would like something to appear in the October 2012 Edition of the newsletter, then please inform us at the Project Newsdesk. If there is an article you think we should have? Request it here. And finally... a massive thank you to all members of the project for your constant hard work on collaborating and contributing to Eurovision related articles. Keep up the good work team!

Project Memorandum

Eurovision Mini Memorandum 16 September 2012 A new RfC has opened at Project Eurovision in regards to how "Country by Contest" articles such as Albania in the Eurovision Song Contest, Denmark in the Junior Eurovision Song Contest and Australia in the ABU Song Festivals will be stylised. It is important that all members of this project participate in the discussion so that we can share our views on how these articles should be presented, what content could do with being added/removed. If a consensus is reached and you have failed to participate then you only have yourself to blame if you disagreed with the layout style that has been reached.
