Sorry, but you're continuing to create the same problem; there can be neither a "trivia" section nor bullet points. Anything notable (most of that was not) and reliable (IMDb is fan-written, and is not) must be written into prose within the body, not into a separate "trivia" section. We're sorry for any inconvenience, but encyclopedias are not fan pages and must adhere to certain guidelines. RadioKirk (u|t|c)

- Because removing it from other articles is a slow process. "Trivia" should not be in any article, and you may feel free to remove it from wherever you see it per the cleanup task force.

Please don't add material which is original research like you did to ILNY. It is in violation of a core policy. Thank you. Real96 18:25, 3 February 2007 (UTC)
Your edits to "Bengal (cat)"
edit Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but your recent contribution removed content from Bengal (cat). Please be more careful when editing articles and do not remove content from Wikipedia without a good reason, which should be specified in the edit summary. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. If you would like to experiment again, please use the sandbox. Thank you. Sue H.

- Oh, whoops! Please accept my apologies. I was going through Recent Changes reverting vandals. However, next time can you please state "see discussion page for explanation" in your edit summary? That way, people won't accidentally revert your edits thinking you're a vandal. Sue H. Ping (talk • contribs) 04:33, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
- Sure! Check out the section below for Wikipedia help. =)
Welcome to Wikipedia!
editDear Yeyosmoka21: welcome to Wikipedia, a free and open-content encyclopedia. I hope you enjoy contributing. To help get you settled in, I thought you might find the following pages useful:
Don't worry too much about being perfect. Very few of us are! Just in case you are not perfect, click here to see how you can avoid making common mistakes.
If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the New contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type {{helpme}} on your user talk (discussion) page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. A third option is to ask a more experienced user such as an administrator.
One last bit of advice: please sign any discussion comment with four tildes (~~~~). The software will automatically convert this into your signature which can be altered in the "Preferences" tab at the top of the screen. I hope I have not overwhelmed you with information. If you need any help just let me know. Once again welcome to Wikipedia, and don't forget to tell us about yourself and be BOLD! Sue H. Ping (talk • contribs) 04:41, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
Edit Summaries
editWhen editing an article on Wikipedia there is a small field labeled "Edit summary" under the main edit-box. It looks like this:
The text written here will appear on the Recent changes page, in the page revision history, on the diff page, and in the watchlists of users who are watching that article. See m:Help:Edit summary for full information on this feature.
Filling in the edit summary field greatly helps your fellow contributors in understanding what you changed, so please always fill in the edit summary field, especially for big edits or when you are making subtle but important changes, like changing dates or numbers. Thank you. Sue H. Ping (talk • contribs) 04:43, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
You're welcome

Adoption accepted
editI hope you have many eventful or unevenful (depending upon how you want to look at it) edits. You can tag my talk page with any questions. Thane Eichenauer 15:35, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
Virtual Villagers 2: The Lost Children
editThe article looks fine to me. Be aware that there is a movement that sometimes will submit an article for delection if it isn't notable. Notable being subjective your article may last, not that I have any particular preference on deletions. Don't forget to include the four tildes when you add info on a talk page.

Image tagging for Image:Vv2.JPG
editThanks for uploading Image:Vv2.JPG. The image has been identified as not specifying the source and creator of the image, which is required by Wikipedia's policy on images. If you don't indicate the source and creator of the image on the image's description page, it may be deleted some time in the next seven days. If you have uploaded other images, please verify that you have provided source information for them as well.

Request to participate in University of Washington survey on tool to quickly understand Wikipedians’ reputations
editHello. I'm part of a research group at the University of Washington. In April, we met with some local Wikipedians to learn what they would like to know about other editors’ history and activities (within Wikipedia) when interacting with them on talk pages. The goal of those sessions was to gather feedback to help design an embedded application that could quickly communicate useful information about other Wikipedians. We have now created a few images that we feel represent some of what our participants thought was important. We would appreciate it if you took a few minutes of your time to complete an online survey that investigates whether or not these images would be useful to you. Your quick contribution would be very valuable to our research group and ultimately to Wikipedia. (When finished, the code for this application will be given over to the Wikipedia community to use and/or adjust as they see fit.)
Willing to spend a few minutes taking our survey? Click this link.
Please feel free to share the link with other Wikipedians. The more feedback, the better! The survey is completely anonymous and takes less than 10 minutes to complete. All data is used for university research purposes only.
Thank you for your time! If you have any questions about our research or research group, please visit our user page. Commprac01 (talk) 01:06, 10 June 2009 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of File:Coming.PNG
editA tag has been placed on File:Coming.PNG requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section I10 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a file that is not an image, sound file or video clip [i.e. a Word document or PDF file] that has no encyclopedic use.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}}
to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you. • S • C • A • R • C • E • 09:00, 25 August 2009 (UTC)
Breaking Dawn
editPer: this edit. Words like "interestingly" are extremely bias. The image is not needed, you did describe it already. That type of content belongs more on a blog. Also, you should write content in the article as if it's going to be on there as long as the article is. • S • C • A • R • C • E • 09:04, 25 August 2009 (UTC)
Oh okay thank you, but I still think that information should some how be in there. (chris (talk) 12:03, 25 August 2009 (UTC))
Orphaned non-free image File:Coming.PNG
editThanks for uploading File:Coming.PNG. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image 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 images 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 "file" 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 "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Skier Dude (talk) 03:00, 14 December 2009 (UTC)
