Comics Collaboration of the Fortnight

edit

As a member of WikiProject Comics, I thought you might be interested in the Comics Collaboration of the Fortnight we have set up. Please feel free to vote on the articles listed, although bear in mind that a vote for a particular article means you are pledging to help improve the article. The goal of the collaboration is to improve articles to Featured Article status, as we feel Comics is under-represented in that area. Thanks for your help.

talk:Lois and Clark: The New Adventures of Superman

edit

Lois and Clark: The New Adventures of Superman refers to a television series. Is the wikiproject comics tag really appropriate? RJFJR 21:01, 10 December 2005 (UTC)Reply

your reply:Well, I figured that, as the subject matter was drawn from comics (no pun intended), that the tag would be appropriate. I've also tagged a few other television shows, such as Smallville, and I believe I tagged the Justice League cartoons. I'm aiming to cover a widebase of comics, not just the characters and comics proper, but also techniques, artists, and related media, when appropriate. I was merely trying to be bold. However, if you find it inappropriate, then go ahead and untag it. I've been on a rampage lately, tagging for the Comics project.
I just wanted to make sure you relaized it was a television series and not a comic book series. As long as you know that and have taken a minute to consider then it's find by me.
Please remember to sign your posts on talk pages with ~~~~ since it makes it easier to reply to you (I just looked in the history but it's easier if you sign and on very active pages it can be hard to find). RJFJR 15:59, 11 December 2005 (UTC)Reply

Unstubbing Rann

edit

To be honest, I wasn't aware of your contributions when I unstubbed it, only that there was certainly enough info there to warrant stub tag removal. I see that you have added a lot of the current article single-handedly though, and you deserve a compliment on putting together so much information. :) --Pentasyllabic 05:48, 6 January 2006 (UTC)Reply

Secret Society of Super-Villains

edit

I'd say our collective efforts have done a lot of good. We helped preserve the hard work of other editors, added to it, and split it properly so no one page got too cluttered. I just added a link to your page on the main Society article. Cybertooth85 06:23, 27 April 2006 (UTC)Reply

Your mediation request

edit

You recently requested for mediation at Wikipedia:Mediation Cabal/Cases/2006-04-29 List of Secret Society of Super Villains members. However, the case, as it involves a user who does not respond to those involved, is not one for the mediation cabal to handle. However, I have gone to WP:RfP and referred your case there to have List of Secret Society of Super Villains members semi-protected as the user had a changing IP, and because of this it is now semi-protected. I'll be closing the case unless there are any problems. Cowman109Talk 17:09, 29 April 2006 (UTC)Reply

Questions on uploading pictures

edit

Hey Doc,

I've recently been scanning pictures from my Top 10 collection so there could be more pictures on the respective articles pages. Could you give me some pointers for uploading comic images and then including them on pages, because the How-To info is spread across several pages it seems. Cybertooth85 23:29, 5 May 2006 (UTC)Reply

I'm curious

Should I post responses to your post on my discussion page here or at your main account? --Basique 14:17, 9 June 2007 (UTC)Reply

Fair use rationales

edit
 

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Wikipedia I notice the image pages of the item listed below specifiy that the images are being used under fair use but there are no explanation or rationale as to why thier use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description pages a specific explanation or rationale for why using these image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

Please go to the image description pages and edit them to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' 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 "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. ShakespeareFan00 11:42, 8 July 2007 (UTC)Reply

Hi, I have deleted your sandbox, as it was being used exclusively to link to a download site outside of Wikipedia. Wikipedia is not a personal webspace, nor does it exist to allow for the downloading of copyrighted material. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.

Calm down.

edit

I see that you've gotten in a few scuffles with ScottKazama. While he has indeed been a problem over the past few months on several pages, his edits now are justifiable. With people getting their hands on MvC3 copies, info like Galactus as the final boss is pretty much official. Also, his message to you contained no threats at all, though his edit summaries did. Thanks. TheStickMan[✆Talk] 01:39, 3 February 2011 (UTC)Reply
