Re: Return of the Jedi

Hey. I've worked on some FA pushes (i.e. Final Fantasy XII). I am looking forward to working with you. I am usually interested in FA pushes. Can you help me out? I am considering some articles for my self-nomination. All Wikiprojects always stride for GAs and FAs, remember? By the way, thank you for your comments both on the Return of the Jedi article and on my talk page. They are much appreciated. :D Good luck and regards. Sjones23 17:50, 10 June 2007 (UTC)

I've halted the FAC on the Return of the Jedi until these issues that you explained are resolved (see Talk:Star Wars Episode VI: Return of the Jedi#FAC). Thanks. Sjones23 21:15, 10 June 2007 (UTC)

I would need some help in finding sources, especially for the production section. I will need some people from the League of Copyeditors for the copyediting. Thanks. Sjones23 22:17, 10 June 2007 (UTC)

I've done some copyediting on the article, placed a copyedit request at the WikiProject League of Copyeditors and added a "copyedit" tag, but is there anything else left I can do to help with this article on becoming an FA status? Thanks. Sjones23 20:11, 17 June 2007 (UTC)

Also, I would be very much appreciated if you help me find a copyeditor or find reliable sources for this article. Thanks. Sjones23 20:15, 18 June 2007 (UTC)

• I did some considerable copyediting to ROJ last night, but I have some questions regarding your recent reversions of a few of my edits. Please see my comments near the bottom of the talk page. —beverson 20:44, 23 June 2007 (UTC)

I also did some proofreading. Thank you for your comments earlier, both on the ROTJ article and on my talk page. I fixed a few errors that Beverson made. By the way, I have earlier placed a final proofread request at Wikipedia:WikiProject_League_of_Copyeditors/proofreading#Ready_for_final_proofread. I have made some editing and cleaning up as well. If I made the FA push without you, I apologize. :D All the best. Greg Jones II 23:58, 26 June 2007 (UTC)

Also, please see my comments at the talk page as well. Thanks. Greg Jones II 00:10, 27 June 2007 (UTC)

AfD

I've made my recommendation, but I have to say that it unfortunately looks like the AfD will wind up for keep or no consensus. These processes are usually a WOFT because most editors don't know what arguments to avoid in deletion discussions. I think, also, the general rule of thumb is that the longer the AfD page (not in terms of votes recommendations, but back-and-forth discussion), the less likely a consensus is reached. Also, quid pro quo, would you mind checking out Road to Perdition? I've been expanding it (still need to rewrite the Plot section and add a decent Critical reaction section), but thoughts on the structure would be appreciated. I still have citations on the talk page that I'm incorporating into the article. —Erik (talk • contrib) - 17:17, 12 June 2007 (UTC)

No worries. You basically said what I said, just (as I reflected on it when I put it back) with a little less "tone".  BIGNOLE  (Contact me) 01:31, 13 June 2007 (UTC)

Made in America (The Sopranos)

In regard to your recent edits to the article, I noticed you changed the section title "Plot summary" to "Plot". The addition of "summary" was to clarify that the section is meant to summary, rather than the entirety of the plot. The shortened title is also dwarfed by the subsection that proceeds it. Just64helpin 01:46, 15 June 2007 (UTC)

Made in America (the Sopranos)

You deleted a submission to the Sopranos article adding only four letters to describe your reasons for doing so, typing 'rv or', i presume you mean 'original research' - the contribution was as follows:

"Most interpretations of the ending scene take no account of the song playing in the diner as Tony first enters - "All That You Dream" - its chorus is - - "I've been down but not like this before - Can't be 'round this kind of show no more" - Given that Chase has said he will make no further comment, the significance of this is up to the viewers."

If you had bothered to cut and paste these lyrics into the web you would see that by now thousands of people are discussing this. the only section of the contribution that could be qualified as original research is the final sentence, stating that given the writers will make no comment, the viewers are left to interpret its meaning for themselves.

So why did you remove it?

Middle-earth in popular culture - pre-DRV request notification

Hi there. I'm leaving a courtesy note to let you know that I am asking the closing admin to reconsider Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Middle-earth in popular culture. My arguments are laid out at User talk:Coredesat#Middle-earth in popular culture - pre-DRV request. As you opened the original AfD, I'm notifying you so that you can add your opinion, either there or later if it goes to DRV. Thanks. Carcharoth 11:58, 5 July 2007 (UTC)

The Godfather/Sandbox

A {{prod}} template has been added to the article The Godfather/Sandbox, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice explains why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may contest the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. If you endorse deletion of the article, and you are the only person who has made substantial edits to the page, please tag it with {{db-author}}. Postcard Cathy 12:35, 24 July 2007 (UTC)

How's it going?

I wanted to see what your up to, what articles are being pushed, and what does ROTJ need to be ready for an FAC push? Also, are we going to work on the Star Wars article to make sure it stays a featured topic? All the best! Judgesurreal777 20:41, 8 August 2007 (UTC)

About half done copyediting, no problems thus far :) Judgesurreal777 23:13, 11 August 2007 (UTC)

Will finish copyediting tonight/tomorrow. Also, I have a important request. I have created an article, Ghostbusters (franchise) to cover all of the Ghostbusters stuff, and I have merged a ton of articles into it, so it is kind of a mess. Could you please help me with it? Copyediting, trimming junk, etc? Thanks so much... Judgesurreal777 02:24, 13 August 2007 (UTC)

Hey. I've been a little busy trying to finish up old priorities, so I might not be able to get to those articles. — Deckiller 02:32, 14 August 2007 (UTC)

re:"Fanboy" vandal

Unfortunately, the other account wasn't blocked indefinitely, so we can't get him for block evasion. He's one revert away from 3RR, and if starts again yesterday, I'll block him anyway for gaming the system. — Deckiller 18:38, 16 August 2007 (UTC)

re:ROTJ

I know the feeling. — Deckiller 03:44, 18 August 2007 (UTC)

Yeah. He's quite...enthusiastic? [1]. — Deckiller 03:47, 18 August 2007 (UTC)

Yeah. I'm a firm believer that the main editor should nominate the article. If necessary, a vote can be held for the honors. — Deckiller 03:56, 18 August 2007 (UTC)

Star Wars articles and production info

I just wanted to say a few brief words off of the FAC. First of all, congratulations on making it this far on getting the entire series to FA status. It's quite an accomplishment, especially in the light of the high trafffic the articles must get!

My comment regarding the ROTJ FAC is mainly that there is not enough out-of-universe information there, although what is presented is done well. In comparison, the ANH article has an extensive amount of info regarding Lucas's personal travails making the film, which I think are no less worthy than the challenges faced by the crew en-masse or the technical innovations required to create the films. The problem is that the information sources (particularly the links I provided) can be rather tech-speak and don't necessarily provide the most obvious context. I'd be willing to help not only with the ROTJ article, but also with the other SW articles each in bringing a lot of this up to spec. Particularly, it's distressing to see the ANH article mention the "groundbreaking" work of ILM in the lead (quite a justifiable statement), but then fail to mention much about ILM aside from its founding and the politics. Specifically, what made it groundbreaking? I also have the Mark Cotta Vaz book, so I'll see what can be dug up. I guess my overall objections are simply that for films that are so expensive, technically intensive, and innovative if not groundbreaking, one would be hard pressed to learn this if your only encounter with Star Wars was reading the WP articles. Thanks for your time, Girolamo Savonarola 21:56, 21 August 2007 (UTC)

Okay, I've just gotten started. I think I'm probably also going to split off the post-production/visual effects information to a new section, especially given how SFX intensive and groundbreaking the films were. (Don't worry, there's still more relevant info that I plan to populate that with). Anyway, just wanted to give you a heads up. Please take a look and let's continue the discussion. Thanks, Girolamo Savonarola 02:17, 24 August 2007 (UTC)

Image:RevengeOTJedi.jpg

I agree that the previous thumbnail was too small, but I think your version is somewhat too large based on WP:NFCC#3b. Would it be possible to upload a version that's about 300-400 pixels on its longest side? This should satisfy any non-free use concerns. Thanks! Videmus Omnia ^Talk 01:20, 22 August 2007 (UTC)

Sorry, one last quibble to make the image fully compliant with NFCC - who is the copyright holder of the image? The source doesn't specify. Thanks! Videmus Omnia ^Talk 02:50, 22 August 2007 (UTC)

Movieguy999

I just want to let you know that the TPM, AOTC and ROTS articles are having problems. Movieguy999 has now added weasel and neutrality tags to these articles to prevent edit war. Movieguy999 has been constantly removing reliable sources in the reaction section before this. Your comments regarding these situations will be very much appreciated. Thanks. Greg Jones II 18:04, 23 August 2007 (UTC)

I have now reported that incident at WP:ANI. Greg Jones II 18:10, 23 August 2007 (UTC)

Movieguy999 has also said, in his most recent comment, on Talk:Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith, that the discussion has been completely one-sided. He has said that [he] has made [his] case, the article clearly has issues, and no one has made an attempt to resolve them and [he] had given exact details of what is wrong and has commented to you that [you] have done nothing but point to other articles and [your] own fan opinion. I am getting sick and tired of having to revert his edits. If that happens again, can we report this issue to the administrators? Thanks. Greg Jones II 14:26, 29 August 2007 (UTC)

I have once again reported that incident at WP:ANI. Any comments there should be very much appreciated. Greg Jones II 17:01, 29 August 2007 (UTC)

Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace

Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace has been nominated for a featured article review. Articles are typically reviewed for two weeks. Please leave your comments and help us to return the article to featured quality. If concerns are not addressed during the review period, articles are moved onto the Featured Article Removal Candidates list for a further period, where editors may declare "Keep" or "Remove" the article from featured status. The instructions for the review process are here. Reviewers' concerns are here. (Note: This is a notification by myself, because you were the nominator and main editor of this article). Greg Jones II 01:43, 14 September 2007 (UTC)

Revenge Of The Sith

"Though many critics and fans saw it as one of the best of the series, or at least, the strongest of the three prequels, others saw it as more or less on par with The Phantom Menace and Attack of the Clones."

This reads exactly like: "Though some people liked the movie, other people didn't."

And your source, the New Yorker article, makes absolutely ZERO mention of Revenge being on par with AOTC and TPM, being one of the best of the series, or being the strongest of the three prequels.

Unspecified source for Image:Nathan_fillion_gun.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Nathan_fillion_gun.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, then you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, then their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 06:29, 29 September 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Videmus Omnia ^Talk 06:29, 29 September 2007 (UTC)

Preity Zinta FA

Hi there. The Preity Zinta article has recently achieved A-class status. Due to the wealth of support I have decided to now nominate for an FA class article which I believe and judging by the comments of others is pretty much up to. In my view it is better than some existing FA actor articles. I would therefore be very grateful if you could give it a final review in your own time and leave your comments and views at Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/Preity Zinta. Thankyou, your comments are always valuable. ♦ Sir Blofeld ♦ ^"Talk"? 10:57, 1 November 2007 (UTC)

Justice League of America

Can I ask you to undo the setup of the film article? Per the notability guidelines for films, stand-alone articles on unproduced projects are not warranted. I assume that you set it up because of the declaration of a release date, but that does not mean that the film will be produced. For example, Prince of Persia similarly has a release date declared, but production hasn't started on it yet. That's why we've had articles like Spider-Man 4 and Jurassic Park IV under broader articles. —Erik (talk • contrib) - 00:00, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

I've reverted your changes; I hope that's alright. Let me know if you have any issues with the approach. If filming starts, which may not happen what with the strike and all preventing necessary rewrites, the project may not go underway. If it does, though, we can restore the article. —Erik (talk • contrib) - 05:01, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Return of the jedi 4.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Return of the jedi 4.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. 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 it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot (talk) 20:49, 5 December 2007 (UTC)

Peer Reviews

Happy New Year, Filmaker! Given your vast contributions to film pages (and per a recommendation by User:Erik), I thought I could solicit your assistance. I've submitted two articles for peer review, and thought that you might like to critique them:

• Duck Soup. I've listed this article for peer review because, even though I and other editors have contributed much information and references, I'm certain that there are other aspects of this classic film that have yet to be covered. I'd like to hear feedback from you, so that I can get help in improving this (and other Marx Brothers films) quality.
• Princess Leia Organa. I've listed this article for peer review because it right now seems oddly cluttered and, despite a lot of references as of now, lacks reliable source citations. Although I've already requested another peer review, as long as it helps the articles get better, I've got the time. Comments and suggestions are appreciated, as this should help me in expanding other Star Wars-centric articles.

If you have the time, it'd be great if you could look over those two articles and assess their flaws and weaknesses. Thanks, and, once again, a Happy New Year to you! — Cinemaniac (talk • contribs) 22:24, 1 January 2008 (UTC)

Heads up

Since you've substantially edited the first episode, I'm letting you know that I plan on redirecting most of the "List of House episodes" per WP:EPISODE soon. Every episode after "Pilot" lacks multiple secondary sources which must be present for a single episode to need an article. This includes reception and development. I'm sure you are aware single plot summaries and trivia don't make a substantial article, and it is usually only the first and last episodes that pass the notability guideline to warrant their own articles. « ₣ullMetal ₣alcon » 22:13, 9 January 2008 (UTC)

If you know of any other episode can have more than just plot and trivia, please let me know here. « ₣M₣ » 22:53, 15 January 2008 (UTC)

A Beautiful Mind

I was looking through the article history, and I noticed that you're the most recent primary editor of the article. Being as the article is already at A-Class status, would you be interested in taking the article through an FAC? Girolamo Savonarola (talk) 22:45, 15 January 2008 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (Image:A-beautiful-mind-3.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:A-beautiful-mind-3.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 '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.

Preview button

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. Regarding your edit(s) to Kevin Smith, it is recommended that you use the preview button before you save; this helps you find any errors you have made, and prevents clogging up recent changes and the page history. It appears you've been around a while. Just wanted to remind you about the "Show Preview" button. For those of us monitoring pages for vandalism it is easier to see a single page of many edits than traversing through many pages of single edits. Thank you for your cooperation. --TreyGeek (talk) 08:07, 20 December 2008 (UTC)

Star Wars

Since you've worked in Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace, which I've edited a lot after the FA demotion, I wondered if you could take a look at the article and do some copyediting, as I intend on taking that to A-Class (or probably FA again). Thanks. igordebraga ≠ 03:25, 13 July 2009 (UTC)

Repost of The Green Lantern (film)

A tag has been placed on The Green Lantern (film) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia, because it appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion process. If you can indicate how it is different from the previously posted material, place the template {{hangon}} underneath the other template on the article and put a note on the page's discussion page saying why this article should stay. Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do with the page. If you believe the original discussion was unjustified, please contact the administrator who deleted the page or use deletion review instead of continuing to recreate the page. Thank you. TriiipleThreat (talk) 13:05, 30 July 2009 (UTC)

Thank you for remaining courteous in your message but yes I was the nominator of the article for speedy deletion. It meet the criteria for speedy deletion because the article had already been deleted through the AfD process though under a different title (see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Green Lantern (movie)). The same reasoning for deletion still applies to this incarnation of the article as the film has yet begin principle photography. I do realize that this is highly anticipated film and likely gross a lot of money but notoriety does not guarantee that the film will be free of set backs (see WP:NFF) and wikipedia is not a crystal ball. Again thank you for your courteousness. -TriiipleThreat (talk) 18:20, 30 July 2009 (UTC)

Unreferenced BLPs

Hello The Filmaker! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot alerting you that 2 of the articles that you created are Unreferenced Biographies of Living Persons. Please note that all biographies of living persons must be sourced. If you were to add reliable, secondary sources to these articles, it would greatly help us with the current 107 article backlog. Once the articles are adequately referenced, please remove the {{unreferencedBLP}} tag. Here is the list:

1. Gustavo Sorola - Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL

You are now a Reviewer

Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, is currently undergoing a two-month trial scheduled to end 15 August 2010.

Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under pending changes. Pending changes is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial. The list of articles with pending changes awaiting review is located at Special:OldReviewedPages.

When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Wikipedia:Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.

If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Courcelles (talk) 18:02, 18 June 2010 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of John Finley Williamson

A tag has been placed on John Finley Williamson requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F9 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the file appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted content borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

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. Karst (talk) 10:26, 8 January 2016 (UTC)
