Concerns about user page

Greetings! I came across your user page while I was fixing some syntax problems that are present on articles across Wikipedia (specifically, you are using {{BASEPAGENAME}} when you should be using the magic word instead).

Anyway, while I came here originally to request that either you fix this minor issue or allow me to fix it, I do have other concerns.

I'm not usually one to judge the quality of edits to Wikipedia, as every edit is valuable, but having a user page which displays a notable amount of partial nudity and unnecessarily excessive detail about yourself seems to be unhelpful to the project. Also, Wikipedia tends to not look very favorably upon single-purpose accounts, accounts created to do one thing and one thing only (such as creating a disruptive user page, or vandalizing a specific article), and so far, the edit creating this user page is the only one that you have made on this Wikipedia.

I would recommend looking at Wikipedia's user page guideline about what is and isn't allowed and make some changes to this user page to make it a bit more presentable (and cohesive). As well, if there are ways you can contribute to the project, such as by fixing or improving articles, don't hesitate in doing so. If I don't see some improvement to the page, or at least hear a response from you within a reasonable amount of time, I may bring this page to the attention of an administrator here.

I'm not here to try to be threatening or scary, and I hope I don't come off that way. I'm simply notifying you that this content can be seen as disruptive. I'm willing to be as cooperative and friendly as possible. Thank you. JaykeBird (talk) 21:52, 24 August 2015 (UTC)

I've removed the photos from your user page, per Wikipedia guidelines (see Wikipedia:User pages § What may I not have in my user pages?). Trivialist (talk) 14:40, 12 November 2016 (UTC)

Wikipedia and copyright

Hello Jason elijah, and welcome to Wikipedia. All or some of your addition(s) to The Jungle Book (Disney franchise) has had to be removed, as it appears to have added copyrighted material without permission from the copyright holder. While we appreciate your contributing to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from your sources to avoid copyright or plagiarism issues here.

• You can only copy/translate a small amount of a source, and you must mark what you take as a direct quotation with double quotation marks (") and a cited source. You can read about this at Wikipedia:Non-free content in the sections on "text". See also Help:Referencing for beginners, for how to cite sources here.
• Aside from limited quotation, you must put all information in your own words and structure, in proper paraphrase. Following the source's words too closely can create copyright problems, so it is not permitted here; see Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing. (There is a college-level introduction to paraphrase, with examples, hosted by the Online Writing Lab of Purdue.) Even when using your own words, you are still, however, asked to cite your sources to verify information and to demonstrate that the content is not original research.
• Our primary policy on using copyrighted content is Wikipedia:Copyrights. You may also want to review Wikipedia:Copy-paste.
• If you own the copyright to the source you want to copy or are a designated agent, you may be able to license that text so that we can publish it here. However, there are steps that must be taken to verify that license before you do. See Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials.
• In very rare cases (that is, for sources that are public domain or compatibly licensed), it may be possible to include greater portions of a source text. However, please seek help at the help desk before adding such content to the article. 99.9% of sources may not be added in this way, so it is necessary to seek confirmation first. If you do confirm that a source is public domain or compatibly licensed, you will still need to provide full attribution; see Wikipedia:Plagiarism for the steps you need to follow.
• Also note that Wikipedia articles may not be copied or translated without attribution. If you want to copy or translate from another Wikipedia project or article, you can, but please follow the steps in Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia.

It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices, as policy requires that people who persistently do not must be blocked from editing. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 16:23, 22 January 2016 (UTC)

Genre

Hi there, genres are subjective labels, and as such, they must be sourced. We also don't need excessive genre chaining like what you've submitted here. Please stick to main genre and main sub-genre. See MOS:FILM for guidelines and if you have questions feel free to ask at WikiProject Film. Unsourced content will be reverted. Note also that per WP:CAT there must be an obvious reason for categories to be added to articles, so adding categories without there being sufficient context, is not particularly helpful, as it comes off as editorializing. For instance, if an article doesn't mention that a film's genre is "adventure" and you add various adventure-related categories, there is no obvious reason why these cats would be added. Sourced article content should exist before adding categories. Thank you. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 20:03, 9 July 2016 (UTC)

Film categories

Please don't sort film categories alphabetically when they're already arranged per WP:FILMCAT. It's not a big deal, but this makes it easier for editors to tell at a glance when important categories are missing. Trying to hunt down the categories for the production companies and director when they are lost in a sea of semi-relevant categories is frustrating.

You're still sorting categories alphabetically when they're already sorted per WP:FILMCAT. I've asked you stop doing this. Will you please explain you're still doing it? NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 03:39, 28 October 2016 (UTC)

Triple hyphenate?

Re: this, as has previously been explained, please source genres, and please stick to generality. Primary genre, one sub-genre...that's pretty much all we need. A triple-hyphenate is just obnoxious. What major sources describe it as an "adventure-musical-comedy", and especially all hyphenated like that? If you'd like other opinions, feel free to ask at WT:FILM how you should go about presenting genres. Thanks. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 02:05, 8 December 2016 (UTC)

Buddy films by decade

OK, I noticed on pages like The Jungle Book (1967 film) and Toy Story 4 you removed the categories like 1960s buddy films and 2010s buddy films. Why? These films ARE classified as buddy films officially. I could only understand the removals on pages like The Great Mouse Detective and Gordy. But not because the categories are useless, but because Gordy and The Great Mouse Detective were NOT described as buddy films. Therefore I took the remaining buddy films categories (American buddy films and Animated buddy films in the case of The Great Mouse Detective) off and replaced them with Films about friendship. Even films like Charlotte's Web (both the original animated film and the live-action remake were not classified as buddy films from what I could find. But films like Lilo & Stitch, Monsters, Inc., and The Emperor's New Groove were ALWAYS classified as buddy films from what I found. So why remove the buddy films by decade? These categories still exist, and fit the films I mentioned. They only don't fit on movies like Gordy and The Great Mouse Detective, but they DO fit on films like Lilo & Stitch, The Jungle Book, Monsters, Inc., and The Emperor's New Groove. Is there a particular reason you're removing them? And also, I made the same mistake on classifying films like Frozen (the Disney animated film) and Charlotte's Web (both films and also the 2003 sequel Charlotte's Web 2: Wilbur's Great Adventure) as buddy films when they aren't. But on the other hand, I don't think Geraldo Perez was correct in this edit to Big Hero 6. The only category that didn't seem to fit would be the teen films, because I couldn't find proof that Big Hero 6 was a teen film, but it WAS classified as a buddy film. From what I've seen, teen films refers to films like Teen Beach Movie and High School Musical, but not films like Big Hero 6. But Big Hero 6 IS a buddy film as far as I know, and HAS been classified as such. I'm talking to Geraldo Perez about it. If you'd like to chime in, be my guest. Thank you.

You didn't answer my question. I need an answer. Message me about it. Kkjj (talk) 08:39, 25 January 2017 (UTC)

Send me a message! Shrek is another movie where the 2000s buddy films category was valid. I need to know why you're removing these categories on every page about buddy movies. Go to User talk:Kkjj and send me a message. Kkjj (talk) 11:02, 27 January 2017 (UTC)

Categories

Hello Jason. I noticed that you've recently gone through a number of film articles adding several genre-related categories to each. I suggest that you read Wikipedia:Overcategorization for guidelines on categorizing articles. Generally, articles should be categorized by the subject's most defining characteristics, not every trivial or tangential connection it may have to other topics. For example, The Flight of Dragons is a fantasy film. Yes, it has one or two humorous lines of dialogue, but that does not make it a "comedy-drama film". In most cases you should also avoid categorizing an article in both a subcategory and its parent category: for example, "1980s fantasy films" is a subcategory of "1980s films", so the article only needs the more specific "1980s fantasy films" category.

Related to this, you might find WP:LEADSENTENCE helpful. In this edit you added four genres back-to-back in the lead sentence. This doesn't help a reader understand what the topic is; it just clutters the sentence and would confuse a reader. Stick to the primary, overarching genre that best describes the film, in this case "fantasy" (it's about magic, dragons, wizards, etc.). Also related is Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Linking, specifically WP:LINKSTYLE, which advises to "avoid placing links next to each other so that they look like a single link", which is what you did in that edit. Instead, try to structure the sentence so that you are only linking the most relevant and helpful topics, and so that the links do not appear side-by-side in the sentence.

I hope this helps in your future contributions. Happy editing. --IllaZilla (talk) 00:22, 21 February 2017 (UTC)

August 2017

Hi! You re-created a page; List of programs broadcast by Cartoon Network (Pakistan); that had been deleted earlier, as it didn't meet the stability criteria required for a page. So this time too it would be deleted. If you try to update and modify the page as List of programs broadcast by Cartoon Network, may be that would work. Or it is better to merge the page into Cartoon Network (Pakistan). Hope you understand, Thanks! M. Billoo 09:32, 7 September 2017 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of List of programs broadcast by Cartoon Network (Pakistan)

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on List of programs broadcast by Cartoon Network (Pakistan), requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion discussion, such as at Articles for Deletion. When a page has substantially identical content to that of a page deleted after a discusion, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here. –Davey2010^Talk 12:11, 7 September 2017 (UTC)
