Bride

Awesome research on the Bride topic. Thanks for the rewrite and additions. I'm more of a photo guy. The subject needed the research. --Mactographer 19:08, 28 May 2007 (UTC)

Infoboxes

I note that you have spent some time tagging a series of featured articles, suggesting that they should have infoboxes. Could you please explain? It strikes me that if an article has already passed the highest level of peer review at Wikipedia without an infobox, any request for one should be explained in detail rather than simply by adding a drive-by template. You may be correct that infoboxes might improve one or more of those articles; however, any significant changes to the style or format of a featured article need to be discussed properly. Could you please review your actions? Risker (talk) 21:46, 7 February 2009 (UTC)

Meanwhile, I notice that you have spent some time actually adding "infoboxes" to featured articles, occasionally with some attempt at reasoning (example) but usually without. Please get agreement before adding these widely disliked affairs, especially when the addition is to an article that has demonstrably succeeded without. -- Hoary (talk) 00:50, 8 February 2009 (UTC)

Just to let you know, I removed the infobox you added at Fanny Imlay. As noted above, there's no general agreement that they should be used, and I think it would be productive if you were to post a note on the talk page of these articles first to see if any of the article's editors would prefer to avoid an infobox. In the case of Fanny Imlay, at least two of the article's editors don't feel an infobox adds value, so I reverted your addition. Mike Christie (talk) 01:19, 8 February 2009 (UTC)

Same here with Nella Larsen. Please discuss your edits first and use a clearer edit summary. There has been an ANI thread started on you that you may wish to make a statement at. Dabomb87 (talk) 02:55, 8 February 2009 (UTC)

Why add the "junky"?

In this edit, you add what you choose to call a "junky infobox". Why? If you think it's junk, why add it? If you don't think it's junk, why call it junk? -- Hoary (talk) 02:24, 8 February 2009 (UTC)

Warning

You have had several editors now question your addition of infoboxes to articles that are already featured articles. Please stop immediately. A major format change to our top articles should always be discussed on the talk page of the article prior to insertion. Your refusal to stop could be considered disruptive or even tendentious editing. A discussion has been started here. Risker (talk) 02:44, 8 February 2009 (UTC)

I also would like you to stop. For a while you were adding 'infobox-needed=yes' parameters; I think that's less than ideal too, as it is subject to debate, but at least it would have the benefit of signalling the debate and allowing others to chip in before the infobox is added. Much of what you've done has been reverted and so is a waste of your time. Please make these changes via discussion. Mike Christie (talk) 02:50, 8 February 2009 (UTC)

Please do not add info boxes (at least without discussion) to architectural pages and biographies of which I am one of the primary/principal authors (the 3 you have added so far have been reverted). If the page does not already have one, there is usually a very good reason. Thankyou. Giano (talk) 10:28, 8 February 2009 (UTC)

Books

Well done on creating all those books! Very useful - rst20xx (talk) 20:12, 4 April 2009 (UTC)

Joseph Merrick infobox

Hello, I've undone your edit at Joseph Merrick. If you're desperate to have an infobox on that article, please start a discussion at the talkpage and get consensus first. That the article doesn't have an infobox isn't an oversight. Infoboxes can be very useful, but I'm not sure that this is one of those cases. Thanks, --BelovedFreak 19:41, 23 November 2010 (UTC)

Please use the "df=yes" parameter in the death date and birth date templates on articles with European-style dates. Thanks. DrKiernan (talk) 14:49, 24 November 2010 (UTC)

As I said, please use the correct date format. You just added an infobox to Daniel Lambert with the incorrect date format again. DrKiernan (talk) 17:45, 24 November 2010 (UTC)

Tom Crean (explorer)

I've taken that infobox off again. Last time it was there it generated more heat than light. See Talk:Tom Crean (explorer). Cheers. William Avery (talk) 15:19, 24 November 2010 (UTC)

Please, stop adding infoboxes

I've just removed another infobox you've added. Per the posters above, please stop adding these without consensus; infoboxes are useful for articles which are part of a series which has a lot of data fields in common (members of a team, and so on) but there's no policy that "articles need an infobox", nor are they appropriate on most articles. – iridescent 17:16, 24 November 2010 (UTC)

I agree with this sentiment, and have just removed the infoboxes (or "sideboxes" as you apparently call them) from three of the FAs I have written. Infoboxes are not mandatory, and many people prefer not to see them in biographical articles. Please cease and desist. María (habla conmigo) 18:00, 24 November 2010 (UTC)

Adding "needs infobox" to the talk page is not really any more helpful. You can discuss at the talk page if you choose, but not do a drive-by add to the talk header. note also that certain types of articles do not use infoboxes. For example, you added "needs infobox" to Talk:Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, but per WP:Composers composers don't use them. Nikkimaria (talk) 02:39, 5 December 2010 (UTC)

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for See below. Adding the template because it explains how to appeal.. If you would like to be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding the text {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}} below this notice, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first. Courcelles 10:37, 5 December 2010 (UTC)

I've blocked you indefinitely for the massive spree you went on this morning adding this needs infobox tag to around 75 talk pages after the warning above from Nikkimaria. This is a fairly massive violation of not hearing what you've been told. Any admin may lift this block if you acknowledge that your actions have been disruptive, and promise that you will not go on such sprees again. Courcelles 10:36, 5 December 2010 (UTC)

Just so you're crystal clear; this block is indefinite, as in "of no fixed duration", not infinite. It could very well be over with one reply from you. Courcelles 10:47, 5 December 2010 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Book:A Rush of Blood to the Head

The book Book:A Rush of Blood to the Head has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Unnecessary fork of Book:Coldplay.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, books may be deleted for several reasons.

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

Please consider improving the book to address the issues raised. Removing {{dated book prod}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes still exist.

Speedy deletion nomination of 🍜

Hello, Dwiakigle,

Welcome to Wikipedia! I edit here too, under the username Hughesdarren, and I thank you for your contributions.

I wanted to let you know, however, that I have tagged an article that you started, 🍜, for deletion, because it is a very short article that doesn't provide readers with enough context to determine who or what the subject is.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top. If the page is already deleted by the time you come across this message and you wish to retrieve the deleted material, please contact the deleting administrator.

For any further query, please leave a comment here and prepend it with {{Re|Hughesdarren}}. And, don't forget to sign your reply with ~~~~ . Thanks!

Message delivered via the Page Curation tool, on behalf of the reviewer.
