Seasons greetings
Hi Anemone, I hope you're well? Are you any good with histormerging? -- Lil_℧niquℇ №1 [talk] 20:02, 28 December 2010 (UTC)
- Yes what do you need doing? AnemoneProjectors 20:03, 28 December 2010 (UTC)
- Oh goodie =) Could you histomerge User:Lil-unique1/Sandbox/2 with Ass on the Floor please? -- Lil_℧niquℇ №1 [talk] 20:05, 28 December 2010 (UTC)
- Isn't that just a simple page move? AnemoneProjectors 20:06, 28 December 2010 (UTC)
- Oh I was under the impression that to preserve page history a histomerge was required. -- Lil_℧niquℇ №1 [talk] 20:09, 28 December 2010 (UTC)
- No, your redirect has no history other than the fact you made a redirect. You should be able to move your sandbox over the redirect and the history of your sandbox will move to the history of the new article. If you can't move it I can delete the redirect. I'll also delete the redirect created by the move in your userspace if you want! But a history merge isn't required. AnemoneProjectors 20:10, 28 December 2010 (UTC)
- It says Administrator action required. But yes if you could do that and then delete the user page for me it would be appreciated :) -- Lil_℧niquℇ №1 [talk] 20:12, 28 December 2010 (UTC)

- Thank you very much. How are the holidays (as in Christmas season) going for you? I'm itching to hear some new Leona music soon... The David Guetta collaboration sounds interesting though I was disappointed to hear she's worked with Tedder again. I really wanted to her what she and Timbaland had recorded together... -- Lil_℧niquℇ №1 [talk] 20:43, 28 December 2010 (UTC)
- Oh not bad, you? Yeah I'm excited for the Leona/Guetta track. She said she'd work with Timbaland again next time, so hopefully she will. I wanted to hear her Xenomania collabs too. I think she'll always work with Tedder though. AnemoneProjectors 20:57, 28 December 2010 (UTC)
- Ugh! They have moments together it just too much of a good thing can ruin one's credibility when one of those collaborations disappoints. It would be great to here her go more urban. I liked the vibe she had with JT on Don't Let Me Down. -- Lil_℧niquℇ №1 [talk] 01:16, 29 December 2010 (UTC)
- That's my favourite Leona song. What if this was real? :) AnemoneProjectors 01:21, 29 December 2010 (UTC)
- o_O F*ck me lol. That would be hilarious. I hope this time she blows everything out of the water. with everything she's been through there should be enough meat to really create a deep record with lush beats and heart-string pulling vocals :P who else do you follow musically? P.s. you really should GA the leona articles. (most are really good... :P) -- Lil_℧niquℇ №1 [talk] 01:28, 29 December 2010 (UTC)
- Some of them are GA, Forgive Me and Better in Time I think. I want Bleeding Love and the two albums to be GA. Ummm my last.fm page is probably a good indication of my other tastes! AnemoneProjectors 01:34, 29 December 2010 (UTC)

- Quite eclectic ... but similar to mine i'd say. (a real mixed bag). Well I have some free time during these holidays (I'm not at uni see) so I could take a look at Bleeding Love and either: 1) Make some changes for GA-prep or 2)produce a list of suggestions. I can't promise a perfect pass but I have done nine now so i have a rough idea what can be expected. -- Lil_℧niquℇ №1 [talk] 01:58, 29 December 2010 (UTC)

Hey Anemone, I'm pretty sure that this recent page of of Hot R&B/Hip Hop Songs → Hot R&B/Hip hop Songs is incorrect per WP:Capitals as the chart is a published work. Anyhow it would require administrator action to fix. Could you take a look and see if my thinking is correct. If its any use... it was moved by Unreal7 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log), a user you've previously encountered and warned for unhelpful editing. -- Lil_℧niquℇ №1 [talk] 01:21, 8 January 2011 (UTC)
- The chart on Billboard appears to be hyphenated anyway so it can just be moved back to where it was before Unreal7 moved it. It doesn't need an admin but... I've just done it anyway. AnemoneProjectors 01:40, 8 January 2011 (UTC)
- I did try moving it but it came up with the "a page already exists with this name... you might require administrator attention" etc. -- Lil_℧niquℇ №1 [talk] 01:51, 8 January 2011 (UTC)
- Thank you! -- Lil_℧niquℇ №1 [talk] 01:52, 8 January 2011 (UTC)
- That's because you tried to move it to Hot R&B/Hip Hop Songs instead of Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs :-) AnemoneProjectors 01:55, 8 January 2011 (UTC)
- My BAD! ... i think its time for bed lol! hope you're well. egh! the holidays are over so I have university again on Monday. Really CBA! -- Lil_℧niquℇ №1 [talk] 01:56, 8 January 2011 (UTC)

Question!
Hey Anemone, are you following me as I update all these images, Deleting them after I've added rationale etc? :D --GSorby-Desroid - (Contribs!) 23:19, 29 December 2010 (UTC)
- They're all on my watchlist, so I thought I might as well remove the old revisions as you edit them. AnemoneProjectors 23:22, 29 December 2010 (UTC)
- Kay let me know on my talk page when you want to stop and we'll continue tomorrow. Am I doing it right yes? --GSorby-Desroid - (Contribs!) 23:24, 29 December 2010 (UTC)
- Yeah you're doing fine, you can stop when you want, if I can't keep up then I'll just leave them lol AnemoneProjectors 00:09, 30 December 2010 (UTC)
- Well I've stopped for tonight. But the unused revisions have to be deleted eventually so you might as well do them now (no not trying to be bossy ;) lol) --GSorby-Desroid - (Contribs!) 00:11, 30 December 2010 (UTC)
- I'm catching up on my watchlist, so will attend to each one as I come to it :) AnemoneProjectors 00:12, 30 December 2010 (UTC)
- Oh I think you might have resized File:Geoff Barnes.jpg a bit too small, it's less than 200px! AnemoneProjectors 00:17, 30 December 2010 (UTC)
- I just noticed, can you restore the older one a moment please? --GSorby-Desroid - (Contribs!) 00:18, 30 December 2010 (UTC)
- There we go :) --GSorby-Desroid - (Contribs!) 00:23, 30 December 2010 (UTC)
- File:Kelvin1.jpg as well is slightly under. AnemoneProjectors 00:44, 30 December 2010

Okay Anemone! Ready to start chasing me again? :) --GSorby Chat with Me! 19:08, 30 December 2010 (UTC)
- If you're resizing them all, would it perhaps make sense to do them to around 300px, just so we have leeway on size. That's still relatively small.GunGagdinMoan 19:16, 30 December 2010 (UTC)
- Well, some of your images are huge in size, but very bad quality, so the smaller they are, the better quality they become. :) --GSorby Chat with Me! 19:18, 30 December 2010 (UTC)
- What's that got to do with it? They never get past 250 px on the page, so even if slightly bigger/lower quality on the image file it makes little difference because the reader only sees it reduced. By all means reduce them, some of them were way too big, but im asking if you can leave them slightly larger than 200px in size, so we have leeway for increasing if needed on the article.GunGagdinMoan 19:24, 30 December 2010 (UTC)
- So let's say the lowest dimension can be 220 minimum? --GSorby Chat with Me! 19:26, 30 December 2010 (UTC)
- Thanks, that would be grand.GunGagdinMoan 19:28, 30 December 2010 (UTC)
- Just out of interest Gungadin, why are all the old images (characters from around 1985-2000) really large but bad quality? Just wondering :) --GSorby Chat with Me! 20:00, 30 December 2010 (UTC)

- 300px is a pretty standard size for a fair-use image. Album covers are usually uploaded at 300x300, but appear as 200x200 in articles. AnemoneProjectors 20:02, 30 December 2010 (UTC)
- By the way, you don't have to change the category sort key to {{PAGENAME}} because when I added the sort keys, I used {{subst:PAGENAME}}, so it makes no difference. AnemoneProjectors 21:05, 30 December 2010 (UTC)
- Oh no, I use this template that I created in Notepad and fill in the fields. I delete the whole page and paste that in :) --GSorby Chat with Me! 21:18, 30 December 2010 (UTC)
- I thought you might say that. You could subst it... AnemoneProjectors 21:22, 30 December 2010 (UTC)
- Not that you have to... I just think it looks better. AnemoneProjectors 21:26, 30 December 2010 (UTC)
- Re GS: Many of the images you are cropping are very old uploads now. When we first started uploading images for these pages in 2005, size wasnt really taken into consideration and fairuse rationales weren't even needed, just the screen template; plus as you know, the image size on the file is never the image size that appears in articles so I didnt think it mattered to be honest. Prior to using screen shots, we used promo photos taken from cast cards. we got in trouble for using them and they were all deleted. We ere told e could use screenshots or nothing as copyright laws are less strict with screenies. The older images are lesser quality because, due to their age and the lack of availability of the episodes at the time, they are taken from episodes that I downloaded via torrents from UK Nova, which have been uploaded from TV, prior to digital etc. Obviously, they are going to be lower quality shots than ones taken more recently because A) they did not air in digital/HD B) they were taken from torrent files not direct episodes as aired and quality gets compromised C) the episodes and characters are up to 26 years old and filming techniques have changed dramatically.GunGagdinMoan 21:23, 30 December 2010 (UTC)
- Re AP: Okay so you want me to replace it with [[Category:EastEnders images|subst:{{PAGENAME}}]]? This may sound stupid but what does the subst exactly do?
- Re Gungadin:Oh right...I did notice you used promophotos. But yeh good point about the non digital... --GSorby Chat with Me! 21:27, 30 December 2010 (UTC)
- You can, but you don't have to. But not like that, it's not subst:{{PAGENAME}}, it's {{subst:PAGENAME}}. It substitutes, meaning it puts in the actual page name (e.g. Luisa dimarco.jpg) rather than the template ({{PAGENAME}}). AnemoneProjectors 21:41, 30 December 2010 (UTC)

Hello there! Favour?
Could you possibly move Les Battersby-Brown to Les Battersby for me please? Obvious reasons of course, thanks! :) Ooh, Fruity @ Ooh, Chatty 01:38, 31 December 2010 (UTC)
- Done! AnemoneProjectors 01:41, 31 December 2010 (UTC)

- Hi, could you protect List of Coronation Street characters?. There's been persistent vandalism by the same previously banned IP for days, the same one who'd been adding 'Aleesha Compton', 'Roxanne Barlow' and 'James Barlow' all over the place. Thanks :) Ooh, Fruity @ Ooh, Chatty 19:25, 3 January 2011 (UTC)

Peggy's Images
Anemone, can you do me a favour...? I know this sounds really stupid but Peggy's Image file name, Pegegegegege or whatever, everytime I see it I wanna smash my laptop up cos it gives me a twitch in my eye :S Urgh...could you rename it to Peggy Mitchell or Peggy Mitchell EE please? and Happy new year! Cheers GSorby Chat with Me! 00:50, 1 January 2011 (UTC)
- I'll do it after sleep. Or if someone else sees this who can do it, maybe they will do it. AnemoneProjectors 01:02, 1 January 2011 (UTC)
Paul Burling and Paul burling
Hi there, Anemone! and a Happy New Year to ye. I have converted the Paul Burling page, which formerly redirected to Britain's Got Talent (series 4) to an article, albeit still at stub stage. There is, however, still a Redirect page called Paul burling (note the surname with lower-case initial) which still goes to the BGT Series 4 page. Could you please delete the Paul burling redirect page, as I don't know how to? Or if you tell me what to do, I will try to do it.
Completely off topic - go to here for a beautiful seasonal cat pic. If you want more, google "Winterfyre litters" and go from there. . . .awww! Best wishes, FClef (talk) 20:53, 2 January 2011 (UTC)
- I changed it to redirect to Paul Burling. Cute cat :-) AnemoneProjectors 20:58, 2 January 2011 (UTC)
- Box clever, there! Thanks. The cat is a Norwegian Forest Cat, arguably the most beautiful breed in the world, allegedly brought to Britain in the 9th century by Vikings, with its majestic ruff, etc. Winterfyre have fabulous pictures of their litters (Baby Photos) chronicling their lives from birth onwards. Alas, these pix are not on Wikipedia. FClef (talk) 21:17, 2 January 2011 (UTC)
Hi again. While research Paul Burling, I came across this Celebrity impersonator. There is an ancient suggestion to Merge it with Impersonator. I would do it myself as Wikipedia directs, but I read elsewhere in Wikipedia that History pages apparently need to be Merged too to preserve authorship. This I am not familiar with and don't know how to do.
Is it necessary to perform a merge on the History page? If not, I can do the Merge myself. Otherwise, please could you take care of it, if you think fit. Thanks again. FClef (talk) 21:34, 2 January 2011 (UTC)
- It shouldn't be necessary to perform a history merge. What you can do is when merging the information, leave an edit summary when saving Impersonator saying something like "Content merged from Celebrity impersonator" and when you redirect Celebrity impersonator, leave an edit summary saying "Content merged to Impersonator", and that should be enough. AnemoneProjectors 21:38, 2 January 2011 (UTC)
- Or basically follow the instructions at Wikipedia:Merging#Performing the merger! AnemoneProjectors 21:40, 2 January 2011 (UTC)
- Eek, Anemone, I have done it (NB I have done merges before) but ballsed up the redirect to section, so I just stuck with the article name. But the redirected page (the source article, Celebrity impersonator looks odd, and the redirect doesn't throw you onto the destination article page - why not? I have followed the format. Please review it at your leisure (hah!) and correct as necessary. Gramercy.FClef (talk) 22:26, 2 January 2011 (UTC)
- Because the < and > aren't meant to be included :S I fixed it! AnemoneProjectors 22:50, 2 January 2011 (UTC)
- Blimey, aaaarrrrrkkk! (that's a bird-squawk noise) - my technical and logical abilities are even worse than I thought. But I have looked at the page and it hasn't allowed your fix. I have even checked the edit screen, and though your edit shows up, the source page is not accepting it. Check by searching for Celebrity impersonator Would an undo help? Will this need to be done at a stratospheric level? (Just a thought: Is this because I put the dreaded <> brackets on the destination page as well? Perhaps removing them might help.) I leave this mess in your capable hands (grovel)FClef (talk) 23:01, 2 January 2011 (UTC)
- It's redirecting fine for me, my edit was accepted. Maybe you're viewing a cached version. The only other place you put the brackets was in an edit summary. AnemoneProjectors 23:27, 2 January 2011 (UTC)
- You're right, it's worked. Thanks. I must have looked at it very soon - I'm talking milliseconds - after you did it and perhaps the system was discombobulated.FClef (talk) 23:43, 2 January 2011 (UTC)

BGT Navbox on Paul Burling - default Hide/show setting
Dear AP, Final request of the evening - and this one I am not empowered to do - is, can you please alter the Default setting on the BGT Navbox at the bottom of the Paul Burling article so that it is hidden and you can press the button to Show the Navbox?
I ask this because I am applying the Wikipedia principle, does a reader of the Paul Burling article really want all that information? Would they want to read about all the other people on there? I see why the Navbox should be there, but should, I feel, default to Hidden.
Two precedents: the X Factor box on the Rhydian article, which you helped re-title among other things, is also defaulted to be hidden, so that one can request it to be shown. Even on the Britain's Got Talent (series 4) page, the Navbox is defaulted to be hidden.
Thanks for being around in the holiday season to lend your expertise with all this. I bid you good night.FClef (talk) 23:51, 2 January 2011 (UTC)
- Oh good night :-) Hmm, on Britain's Got Talent (series 4) the navbox isn't hidden on my screen. On Rhydian it's probably because there are two. When there are many navboxes (I don' know if it applies if the article is particularly long), the navbox is automatically collapsed. To be honest I don't think it's a huge issue and I'd rather not change the template to suit a single article :S Hope that's ok! AnemoneProjectors 00:04, 3 January 2011 (UTC)
- Interesting, didn't know about automatic collapsing of navboxes. I thought it was possible to just just tailor the Hide/Show button within a single articles. But I respect your view. :-) FClef (talk) 11:03, 3 January 2011 (UTC)
- I worked out how to do it, I had to add a line to the original template and then a bit to Paul Burling's page. AnemoneProjectors 12:11, 3 January 2011 (UTC)
- Seriously, thank you for that. Non-seriously, I have my uses after all. I have been obnoxious and you have expanded your knowledge! :-D FClef (talk) 16:03, 3 January 2011 (UTC)
Patrick, Denise and Kim's recent move
Thought you might know this as I obviously missed the relevant episode - Why are Patrick, Denise and Kim living with other people at the moment? Heard it was because of an overflowing bath which flooded the house, but who did it? Any answers? Bleaney (talk) 16:23, 3 January 2011 (UTC)
- It was Kim who left the bath running. Not sure how relevant it is to storylines, but hmm they must have done it for some kind of reason, right? AnemoneProjectors 16:29, 3 January 2011 (UTC)
- Maybe so, I just think they are giving us a bit of interaction between the characters ahead of the new Fox storyline arc (the B&B), which also may explain Jordan's departure. Thanks for this Bleaney (talk) 16:37, 3 January 2011 (UTC)
- Ah maybe. Thing is those two houses used to be one anyway, when Patrick ran the B&B with Yolande. It's daft! lol AnemoneProjectors 16:40, 3 January 2011 (UTC)

Character article sections
Hey, I was just looking through some articles, notably Ronnie Mitchell's and Danielle Jones and really like the idea of having the storylines first, I was just wondering how did changing the order of the sections come about?--AcidBrights (talk) 08:51, 4 January 2011 (UTC)
- Hi, MOS:TV suggests putting storylines first. It helps to give context for the following sections. We've only just started doing it on a few articles, and we're making so the storylines are cut down before we do it. AnemoneProjectors 14:10, 4 January 2011 (UTC)

Diphallia picture
Okay, I'm going to quit uploading photos. Every time I do, I get a boilerplate message about how it doesn't fit in. From now on, I will simply be adding links to pictures. I used to work for the Wisconsin Department of Revenue, auditing tax forms. That was far less frustrating than trying to get a free picture onto Wikipedia. I noted in the description of the diphallia pic that it is a free image. It doesn't fit into a certain type of license, but it is perfectly plumb pellucid that the website allows the use of the image for any purpose. I imagine it's pretty hard to find a picture of a guy with two penises, since there has been a request up for a picture for years. Go ahead and delete it. It will probably scare children anyway. PBF1974 (talk) 03:04, 5 January 2011 (UTC)
I quit. Please courtesy blank my pages.
Today I had to deal with some guy who seems to assume bad faith and make uncivil personal attacks on a daily basis. Then I find that you have deleted a picture of diphallia clearly labeled as such by the Centers for Disease Control. I rather doubt that you have the credentials to make that determination, but Wikipedia is a game of attrition, and a winner is you. I'm done. Please blank my pages, so that I can move on with real life and not end up like some of the freaks I've encountered here. I'll go ahead and blank the pages. PBF1974 (talk) 00:00, 6 January 2011 (UTC)
X Factor
Hi mate, Just saw that you had reverted my edits on the x factor series 4 article. I was attempting to move the details of the finalists to a separate article to create some level of consistency with the hope of expanding the entries. I planned to do this for each of the first four series. 03md 01:38, 6 January 2011 (UTC)
- If you're going to expand the entries, then ok, go ahead. But I'd prefer not to have red links on the navigation template, so could you wait until you've created the articles until you add the links? AnemoneProjectors 01:41, 6 January 2011 (UTC)

Help
There are a number of editors causing concern for me. User:PringlePan doesn't take any warnings on board and carries on removing characters from lists, listing characters as departed on there pages and so on. Hollyoaks related, also.. could Mercedes McQueen, Carmel McQueen, Jacqui McQueen and Theresa McQueen have IP protection, for a long time the middle names have been disputed. Only have been mentioned on-screen, I'm an avid viewer, but there is no reference of how to even spell these pointless long middle names. It's not exactly how the characters are known out universe anyway... but IP's ignore hidden messages, a number of warnings... this has been going on since last year.RAIN..the..ONE HOTLINE 13:29, 18 December 2010 (UTC)
- Hmm, PringlePan is on a final warning so next time they do it, if someone else doesn't block them or request them to be blocked, don't forget to make a request at WP:AIV. I don't think the pages need protecting because there's not a high level of vandalism, in fact there's not even a high level of edits on any of them. I would suggest adding a hidden comment
<!-- Comment -->
to explain why people shouldn't add the middle names. It doesn't always work but it's the best I can suggest really. AnemoneProjectors 15:52, 18 December 2010 (UTC)- Oh well okay. Hidden comments didn't work any, so there gone. Thanks for taking a look.RAIN..the..ONE HOTLINE 16:57, 18 December 2010 (UTC)

I was wondering if you could look at something, On User talk:212.183.128.67 I warned the IP for a spree of vandalism, which IMO adding fake characters to articles is, but I gave a level for because of over 7 bad edits were made... but I've had a complaint on my talk page with a suggestion. Do you think the action I took was hasty? Or is this person complaining because it's his IP too?RAIN..the..ONE HOTLINE 18:16, 30 December 2010 (UTC)
- Hmm personally I would have started with a level 1 warning. I think you were a bit hasty this time. AnemoneProjectors 18:52, 30 December 2010 (UTC)
- Not sure if I can just remove it, If I can't you can hide the revision can't you?RAIN..the..ONE HOTLINE 19:17, 30 December 2010 (UTC)

Hey there. I don't know if you noticed but me and Junegloom have been cleaning Home and Away up again and I was wondering if you could move page names of Liam Murphy (Home and Away) to Liam Murphy which is a redirect to a unsourced character list of Rescue Me, that one can be moved to "Liam Murphy (Rescue Me) and still serve as a redirect, it's untouched for a few years so it doesn't look like anyone's interested. Plus our Liam appears more searched, and talked about on google.RAIN..the..ONE HOTLINE 21:52, 12 January 2011 (UTC)
- Hi, I didn't notice but I can do that. However, there are a couple of things linking to Liam Murphy that are nothing to do with either of the characters, so I think a disambiguation page would be more appropriate, though the others would be red links. Is that ok with you? AnemoneProjectors 22:07, 12 January 2011 (UTC)
- What other pages link to Liam? I clicked what links here button and it was just a few user pages and Home and away related things.RAIN..the..ONE HOTLINE 22:17, 12 January 2011 (UTC)
- I've just disambiguated them. There's an author, an athlete and a footballer all with that name, and their red links would belong on a disambiguation page. AnemoneProjectors 22:18, 12 January 2011 (UTC)
- Ahh okay, didn't realise there were so many in use, tis a bummer!RAIN..the..ONE HOTLINE 22:28, 12 January 2011 (UTC)
- Actually, as most of them are red, I could make the dab page at Liam Murphy (disambiguation). Maybe in future someone will want to move it though. AnemoneProjectors 22:33, 12 January 2011 (UTC)

Story line
Hi again. Noticed the recent issue. According to Merriam-Webster, "story line" is two words. Searching for it as one word will redirect you to the two. -- James26 (talk) 15:59, 12 January 2011 (UTC)
- Not sure about that. WP:MOSTV refers to "storylines", Wikipedia has an article at Storyline (Wiktionary agrees), Google asks "Did you mean: storyline", and everyone knows that it's "storylines" not "story lines". I suggest not changing it either way, just leave them all as they are. AnemoneProjectors 16:11, 12 January 2011 (UTC)
- I'm pretty sure Merriam-Webster has more credibility than Wikitionary or Wikipedia.
- That said, I know that "storyline" is used commonly, but "story line" is used as well. According to Merriam-Webster, however, "story line" is not incorrect. Worth noting. It's likely just a matter of preferance, so I agree with leaving them all as they currently are. -- James26 (talk) 19:53, 12 January 2011 (UTC)
- Well that's fine but honestly I have never seen it as two words. Ever. EVER. AnemoneProjectors 20:28, 12 January 2011 (UTC)
- I have also never ever seen it as two words. Looking at the Oxford Dictionary online, looks as if they agree with my spelling. Nothing found for story line.--5 albert square (talk) 23:02, 12 January 2011 (UTC)
- Thanks, I had tried to find an online version of the Oxford Dictionary. I knew it would agree with this spelling. AnemoneProjectors 23:06, 12 January 2011 (UTC)
- Nice seeing that. Between Webster and Oxford there are two credible dictionaries with two different spellings (as mentioned, I've seen both). I imagine neither is incorrect. Must be an interesting etymology. :) Cheers. -- James26 (talk) 00:45, 13 January 2011 (UTC)

Lloyd Tavernier
Hi, would u have any objections to me merging Lloyd into Etta and celestine? I think it would help expand the article a little.GunGagdinMoan 09:12, 13 January 2011 (UTC)
- Ummm would you want to rename the article or would it still be about Etta and Celastine? I don't think it necessarily needs expanding in terms of length. I'm not sure I like the idea really... AnemoneProjectors 15:44, 13 January 2011 (UTC)
- It would be renamed as Celestin, Etta and Lloyd Tavernier and would be about all three, only info re Lloys storylines included and stuff on his casting.GunGagdinMoan 16:32, 13 January 2011 (UTC)
- I don't think I like the idea of making an article about three people. A family is ok, a couple is ok, but I don't see the point of that to be honest. AnemoneProjectors 16:42, 13 January 2011 (UTC)
- Why does it make it any better if it's an article about 2 characters as opposed to 3? It's just a page to redirect to that houses the characters. It's not like anyone is going to type into wikipedia, "Celestine and Etta Tavernier". They will type in Celestine Tavernier and get redirected to the couple page. Same if one more is added to the page. I could make Lloyd a separate page, but I think a collective one for those 3 would be more convenient and lessen rehash of information that we would have across the lists and articles.GunGagdinMoan 18:10, 13 January 2011 (UTC)
- It just seems odd to have an article about a couple and one of their children, but keeping the rest of the family separate. What would you do about the infobox? AnemoneProjectors 18:21, 13 January 2011 (UTC)
- I thought there's an option for a third image in the infobox template, was going to just use that. Shame there's no Tavernier family image as that would be better.GunGagdinMoan 19:53, 13 January 2011 (UTC)
- An image of the three would be better. But what about the parameters? There will be three of everything, plus the family will be weird. By the way the duration looks a bit weird even with just the two characters. AnemoneProjectors 20:01, 13 January 2011 (UTC)
- Yeah, but we will be able to alter the duration once we decide on option e to 1992-1994, cant we? Otherise I can do a separate line each for duration for each character? GunGagdinMoan 20:58, 13 January 2011 (UTC)
- Oh yeah that's true, though Celestine has a different exit year. Is it at all possible to change it to a family article to also include Hattie and the other one? Or not? AnemoneProjectors 21:09, 13 January 2011 (UTC)
- Dont think so, Hattie's is quite long already and not complete, and Clyde's will be the same once I get around to doing it, Jules is quite long as well. And the problem is with those 3 is that they were much bigger characters than the others with separate storylines, more integrated. Lloyd, Celestine and Etta were a self-contained unit really, which is why an article with just those 3 works because they all were part of the same storyline, if that makes sense? For instance Lloyd had sickle, parents were involved with that, and Lloyd got in trouble with police, parents involved with that as they opted to move away. Hattie had relationship with Steve, job with Ian etc likewise Clyde had relationship with Michelle, Eddie Royle's murder; A collective storyline for them all would be a bit random and unrelated to Etta, Celestine and Lloyd. Only thing that could be done is something similar to Flaherty family I suppose, which links to Connor and Mary's separate articles. Maybe it's easier just to see if I can find enough to make Lloyd his own page. I suppose it doesnt matter hugely if there's repetition, does it?GunGagdinMoan 21:38, 13 January 2011 (UTC)
- Repetition is ok. I've come around to the idea of the three having one article though :-) AnemoneProjectors 21:42, 13 January 2011 (UTC)

Romances
You keep rolling back "Oliverrox" but see the discussion I've started here - I'm not sure automatically reverting is currently justified according to that template... Stephenb (Talk) 19:10, 21 January 2011 (UTC)
- It's WikiProject EastEnders that doesn't want it in EastEnders articles. That's all. AnemoneProjectors 19:16, 21 January 2011 (UTC)
- Can you point me to that policy? If it has been previously discussed and agreed, it ought to be added to Wikipedia:WikiProject_EastEnders/Manual_of_style so that we can inform editors that add this otherwise valid field. Otherwise, it's more like WP:OWN... Stephenb (Talk) 19:20, 21 January 2011 (UTC)
- I found a discussion here but I think before that it's just been one of those things the members decided on, maybe via a user talk page or in edit summaries or some such. It used to be just an EastEnders template, and the romances field was only added when it was made available for any TV series, so that other shows could use it. AnemoneProjectors 19:25, 21 January 2011 (UTC)

- Good enough for me, I'll add it to the Wikipedia:WikiProject_EastEnders/Manual_of_style so we can refer people to it. Stephenb (Talk) 19:37, 21 January 2011 (UTC)
- I found a discussion here but I think before that it's just been one of those things the members decided on, maybe via a user talk page or in edit summaries or some such. It used to be just an EastEnders template, and the romances field was only added when it was made available for any TV series, so that other shows could use it. AnemoneProjectors 19:25, 21 January 2011 (UTC)
- Can you point me to that policy? If it has been previously discussed and agreed, it ought to be added to Wikipedia:WikiProject_EastEnders/Manual_of_style so that we can inform editors that add this otherwise valid field. Otherwise, it's more like WP:OWN... Stephenb (Talk) 19:20, 21 January 2011 (UTC)

I dont get this GA nomintating shit. Can you fix it for me please? GunGagdinMoan 13:08, 23 January 2011 (UTC)

Online Ambassadors
I saw you have been really active lately and I clicked on over to your user page and was pretty impressed. Would you be interested in helping with the WP:Online_Ambassadors program? It's really a great opportunity to help university students become Wikipedia contributers. I hope you apply to become an ambassador, Sadads (talk) 23:50, 25 January 2011 (UTC)

Glee images
So...what happened?? CTJF83 chat 17:30, 27 January 2011 (UTC)
- They were all FFD'd, but I was too late to save them. Apparently they can all be replaced by free images of the actors. It's stupid, the only image that can depict a fictional character is a picture of the character, and as you can probably tell from my edit summaries, images of the characters help with identification because some people know them by face but not by name, including myself! –AnemoneProjectors– 17:34, 27 January 2011 (UTC)
- (ec) Oh, ok, thank you, CTJF83 chat 17:39, 27 January 2011 (UTC)
I bought up a policy discussion about this situation at Wikipedia talk:Non-free content/Archive 50#Characters/actors images replacement. Thought you might want to contribute to it. JDDJS (talk) 22:04, 28 January 2011 (UTC)
- Thanks. This makes me mad. It was never an issue before. A fictional character can only be depicted via a picture of that character! –AnemoneProjectors– 22:24, 28 January 2011 (UTC)

16th National Television Awards
Hey. I've done quite a bit of work to the 16th National Television Awards page. Please let me know what you think. Can you think of anything to add? Or maybe you could copy edit it if the wording is poor... Thanks. --Twentiethil1986 (talk) 00:33, 29 January 2011 (UTC)
- I think it's pretty good. The only thing I can think of that could be added is the people who presented each award. What do you think? –AnemoneProjectors– 00:41, 29 January 2011 (UTC)
- Yeah that would be good but I can't remember all of the presenters, plus I can't seem to find a source that lists them all... --Twentiethil1986 (talk) 00:48, 29 January 2011 (UTC)
- Hmmmm... I'll see if I can find one. I know some sites were blogging live so might have included the presenters. Ooh you could add that EastEnders was the big winner with three awards, and that two audience members were asked to present an award. That's all mentioned in the Beehive City reference already in the article. –AnemoneProjectors– 00:54, 29 January 2011 (UTC)

worth a mention?
Hey Anemone, Hope your well? This interesting article appeared online in the last few days. I'm wondering if its worth using to add information to some artists about their leaked songs? I thought it could be used at Echo (Leona Lewis album). It mentions the song "Pulse" which was recorded for the album? -- Lil_℧niquℇ №1 [talk] 19:55, 29 January 2011 (UTC)
- I've been meaning to ask about this because I found this yesterday, though I didn't read it fully yet. Yes I would say it's worth adding to Echo (Leona Lewis album) (and any others that may be involved). –AnemoneProjectors– 20:02, 29 January 2011 (UTC)
- I've had a go at mentioning it at Echo (Leona Lewis album) and This Is Us (Backstreet Boys album). I'm not sure if its ok or not. What do you think? -- Lil_℧niquℇ №1 [talk] 20:25, 29 January 2011 (UTC)
- That sounds good to me. (Ugh, just reminded myself of that awful Eurovision song!) –AnemoneProjectors– 20:28, 29 January 2011 (UTC)
- Oh dear... that song made me embarrassed to say I was from Britain lol. I don't know what's worse: the fact the UK went with that or the fact that Pete Waterman defended it afterwards!! -- Lil_℧niquℇ №1 [talk] 20:32, 29 January 2011 (UTC)

Hmm... they need a good ballad written by a good old fashioned songwriter e.g. Gary Barlow. I was meaning to ask... what are the qualifying criteria for Eurovision artists? I was under the impression that it was only unsigned or soon-to-be signed artists? Shame someone like Leona couldn't represent US. -- Lil_℧niquℇ №1 [talk] 20:38, 29 January 2011 (UTC)

non-free images
Can you start an official vote on the policy change please? I would but I am unsure how. JDDJS (talk) 20:52, 29 January 2011 (UTC)
- I was hoping someone else would do it :S –AnemoneProjectors– 20:58, 29 January 2011 (UTC)
- I was going to try a RFC but I don't understand it. JDDJS (talk) 22:17, 29 January 2011 (UTC)
- (talk page stalker) RFC is actually pretty easy, you just need to put {{rfctag|policy}} on the talk page, with a brief and neutral statement below - something like "Are free-use images of actors sufficient in articles on the fictional characters they play, or should a fair-use image of the character be allowed?". A bot should take care of the rest. It's been an interesting discussion so far, but I'm not meant to be on Wikipedia again until Tuesday so I don't want to dive in, haha. Frickative 23:06, 29 January 2011 (UTC)
- See, if I was going to do it I'd ask something like "So and so is trying to change long-established policy to force their own POV on the Wikipedia community. They're wrong to do this, aren't they?". Which is why I don't want to start it! –AnemoneProjectors– 23:23, 29 January 2011 (UTC)
- LOL. Thinking about it, it might be better to address the NFCC directly, maybe something like: "Does a free image of an actor adequately constitute a free equivalent of characters they play?" Because, as you say, the debate is more about interpretation of existing policy than something new. Frickative 23:33, 29 January 2011 (UTC)
- Perhaps, but JDDJS has started an RFC now. –AnemoneProjectors– 23:36, 29 January 2011 (UTC)
- I was just about to inform you about that. JDDJS (talk) 23:37, 29 January 2011 (UTC)
- Not that it actually matters, but we did both post at the same time. I'm not being deliberately obtuse :p. Frickative 23:41, 29 January 2011 (UTC)
- Sadly I fear it's a waste of time. The policy is so stupidly ambiguous which is why these deletionists have managed to twist things so much, And it's no coincidence that they linger around fair-use policy pages instead of actually editing, because for some unknown reason they have a desperation to get the policy altered and vote accordingly, and it's all a lot of them seem to care about - they think they are being constructive, they dont realise they are a bunch of hypocrites, they need a new purpose .... I can guarantee that most average users would advocate for the use of fair-use images in fiction articles, but they are far too busy editing articles and dont tend to even know about the annoying discussions that go on at these policy pages. A lot are scared to get involved because all they do is quote long-winded essays and policies at everybody, while simultaneously contradicting themselves on so many levels with their pseudo-intellect and pompous way of talking at people. The policy doesnt state that the images cant be used, it just happens that the deletionsists got their way on the glee images because they are on a mission to delete and watch the deletion pages waiting to pounce. There is little chance of policy being changed, and note that it doesnt suggest fair-use cant be used anyway so they'll say there's no need to change it, so I think contesting the deletion instead of the policy may be more fruitful.GunGagdinMoan 23:54, 29 January 2011 (UTC)
- I'd love to see them actually contribute to articles instead of asserting power over everyone. You're right, they do throw every policy in the book at editors, all high and mighty. Totally unfair and IMO it's bullying others into thinking they are wrong, when the policies actually allow these images..RAIN*the*ONE BAM 16:50, 30 January 2011 (UTC)

The never ending fair use argument
I have enough with Hammersoft and MASEM. They are just going by their interpretation of policy, and ignoring everyone else's opinion. Masem has actually said that consensus doesn't matter here. That is just ridiculous. I really just don't know what to do. I am hoping you do because I want this to end already. JDDJS (talk) 01:27, 4 February 2011 (UTC)

- Well, I think all we can do is fight for our images to be kept if they go to FFD, and if they get deleted then I'm sure someone will come along pretty quickly and upload a new one. They still think it's ok to have fair use in Eleventh Doctor and Characters of Friends, yet there's just no difference. –AnemoneProjectors– 08:30, 4 February 2011 (UTC)

Thomas F. Duffy
Hi, I was wondering why my article marked G5? I never even used Wiki before? I am only trying to enter an article for one of my clients Thomas F Duffy, who has received many inquiries why he is not on Wikipedia. As you can see, he has many Wikipedia links, and thousands of web links. I am sorry if I violated some Wikipedia rule, but I was trying to post this honestly, with first-hand knowledge.
Thanks, Mrcrebbs.

Help needed
I have a tricky one for you. Home and Away character Bobby Marshall, common name Bobby Simpson is ready for the mainspace. But there's a problem. She has existed over three page names and the situation was never adressed. However the page Bobby Simpson was taken without discussion for Bob Simpson (cricketer) but it's just a redirect and the cricketer in question was only ever refered to as Bob or Bobbie, not Bobby. So that where I want to put the article. But then redirects for Bobby at Bobby Marshall (Home and Away), Bobby Marshall (character), Bobby Simpson-Marshall. I'll only need 'Bobby Marshall (Home and Away)' to redirect to Bobby and I'll want it moving to 'Bobby Simpson'. So the other need deleting because theyre not needed and the other to make way for the move.RAIN*the*ONE BAM 19:29, 30 January 2011 (UTC)
- Ok, I'll delete Bobby Simpson for you, as well as the two other redirects and you can do the rest :-) –AnemoneProjectors– 19:59, 30 January 2011 (UTC)
- Thankyou AP!RAIN*the*ONE BAM 20:01, 30 January 2011 (UTC)

- Ooh, this one's nice and tricky (probably not as bad as Morag Bellingham though, which has been protected against creation). Bobby Marshall (Home and Away) was the article that was PROD'd, so shouldn't Rain recreate the article there and then move it to Bobby Simpson? He would have to speak to the deleting admin (Magioladitis) about restoring it first though or take it to WP:UND. Bobby Marshall (character) should then redirect to it? Or is that all wrong? If so, I fail and have some reading to do, lol. - JuneGloom Talk 20:44, 30 January 2011 (UTC)
- She had two pages anyway for some reason and no one objected. The page was never deleted just redirected after that discussion and the fellow article was nominated and it gained a consensus to keep.RAIN*the*ONE BAM 20:52, 30 January 2011 (UTC)

- I've created it now. You could merge BM Character with BM Home and Away, right? Then it won't matter about deleting 'BM character'. I'd say it's almost certain it will be deleted in any case if I take it to redirects for deletion. Would just take ages though, when it could be done quick. Then two combined history can sit happily in the other article.RAIN*the*ONE BAM 22:21, 30 January 2011 (UTC)

Look at Bobby Simpson edits history, somneone put a disambig note on the page, so i repaired it, but critised it's inclusion in my edit note, next thing I know the editor goes and decline by DYK of Bobby, and hides a message about it in my Archived talk. Is this even aloud, plus I did expand it didn't I,it's just the addition of different edit history in their after, the reason the editor is trying to use to decline .. because of the revision history apparently.RAIN*the*ONE BAM 18:59, 31 January 2011 (UTC)
- I don't think they were refusing because of your edit summary (which I did see and did think that they probably wasn't sure if it was one of the links on the dab page or not). But I've left them a reply because it's basically my fault for doing the history merge. –AnemoneProjectors– 19:11, 31 January 2011 (UTC)

- MOS:TV#Plot section "Plot summaries do not normally require citations; the television show itself is the source, as the accuracy of the plot description can be verified by watching the episode in question. An exception to this rule may be shows containing plot details that are unclear or open to interpretation, in which case the different interpretations should be sourced to reliable sources." –AnemoneProjectors– 20:34, 8 February 2011 (UTC)

Linking
The relevant guideline is at WP:OVERLINK. In general, reader utility is the best guide; why would it benefit the reader to repeat the same link multiple times? --John (talk) 15:36, 8 February 2011 (UTC)
- Well, it says "As a rule of thumb, link on first reference only", but that's not refering to the references section is it? I believe that repeating links in the references is acceptable because the order can be changed and when I add a new reference or rearrange an article, I don't want to have to keep making sure the first occurance is linked! WP:REPEATLINK doesn't meantion this but it gives only three examples, and implies there are others. I believe this is one. It's certainly never been brought up in any GA or FA nomination that I've seen. –AnemoneProjectors– 16:20, 8 February 2011 (UTC)
- I take your point. If you ever discuss this centrally please let me know. Meantime I am going to assume that OVERLINK is still a guideline. --John 16:38, 8 February 2011 (UTC)
- Ok. Well, I'm not going to revert you if you do it on any other articles I'm watching, but I'm probably going to keep on linking! If it comes up at an article I nominate for GA or FA then I'll change it :) –AnemoneProjectors– 16:43, 8 February 2011 (UTC)
- I've just asked for clarification here. –AnemoneProjectors– 17:27, 8 February 2011 (UTC)

Hi there,
Just saw what you did after I undid your edit, your way looks better! So I'll undo my edit and keep it that way! Sorry! Mjs2010 (talk) 16:55, 9 February 2011 (UTC)
Reverting good faith edits
I'll try not to make this into a rant or a personal attack. Please do not go in all guns blazing and revert good faith changes made to EastEnders related articles because you don't like them or don't agree with them. You have no ownership over these articles and it very much feels like you think you do. It is disconcerting and offputting to other users of Wikipedia to spend their time making perfectly good edits, only to have you come along and revert them. Every time I have personally tried to make an edit you disagree with it has felt like an uphill battle, having to get consensus to go against what you prefer, and even when consensus is reached, you continue to argue that your way is right. All I am asking is that you take a step back and look at your personal conduct when it comes to good faith edits, because the manner in which you conduct yourself has made my experience on Wikipedia less than enjoyable. I am not trying to be rude or disrespectful, I think a lot of your work on here is wonderful, it just seems that you get a little too involved with articles sometimes and lose sight of what is best for the community as a whole, as opposed to just yourself. Please don't be offended and try to take my comments on board. 144.124.121.55 (talk) 05:42, 11 February 2011 (UTC)
- if this is about tvtv, they have published incorrect information before that has been used on Wikipedia, so I feel it is an unreliable source. I'm sorry you feel that way though. –AnemoneProjectors– 08:13, 11 February 2011 (UTC)
- I've reverted myself and let the tvtv info in now. I don't think we should continue to add informaton from there, but next week the BBC will confirm these characters so we can change to BBC sources then. –AnemoneProjectors– 08:21, 11 February 2011 (UTC)
How?
how do you put refernces on a charcetrs profile like you did with connor about the bubble awards?--MayhemMario (talk) 20:48, 13 February 2011 (UTC)
- Basically, if you put
<ref>
and then some text and then</ref>
then the text between the two comes out as a reference. In the edit screen you should see a symbol that says <ref /ref>, which will give you the tags. Lots of people just put the url in between, like<ref>http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/soaps/scoop/a303447/in-full-all-about-soap-bubble-nominations.html</ref>
, which is ok but it's better to use a citation template, like {{cite news}}, {{cite web}} or {{cite journal}}. You can get more information from Wikipedia:Citing sources. –AnemoneProjectors– 21:37, 13 February 2011 (UTC)
did you see me doing the max branning one? You kinda of beat me to it though....--MayhemMario (talk) 16:33, 14 February 2011 (UTC)

Hello AP. Can you please restore Heather's previous image? Thanks --GSorby Chat with Me! 11:41, 15 February 2011 (UTC)
- Done, is that the one you wanted? –AnemoneProjectors– 11:44, 15 February 2011 (UTC)
- Thanking you AP. You now may re-delete. --GSorby Chat with Me! 11:50, 15 February 2011 (UTC)
- Well, you've changed the image to that one now. So I'm going to leave the last one there in case someone prefers it. In fact, I do, because it shows part of her everyday sort of clothes, rather than her work clothes, and her clothes have been criticised ("Her frocks and matching Alice bands could have been stitched together out of Nigel Bates's old ties", for example). I think a lot of our images need to be more than a headshot. In fact, we should probably use promo images instead of screenshots. But that's something that should be discussed more centrally. –AnemoneProjectors– 11:55, 15 February 2011 (UTC)
- If I recall, we got in trouble for using promo photos? --GSorby Chat with Me! 11:59, 15 February 2011 (UTC)
- We used to use scans of the actors' cast cards. But in many cases, the promo photos show a more typical or maybe more extreme look, for example, Naz Mehmet in her red jacket with fluffy hood. The recent WP:NFC discussion implied, in places, that promo shots were prefered to screenshots. But this is another discussion for another time. I just prefer the other image of Heather because it shows more of her outfit. Showing the outfit as well can be helpful if there's critical commentary on it. –AnemoneProjectors– 12:04, 15 February 2011 (UTC)
- But basically, never mind. –AnemoneProjectors– 12:07, 15 February 2011 (UTC)

Entered first reference on Thomas f Duffy page
Hi, Entered first reference on Thomas f Duffy page. If I did this correctly, I will continue and enter more. Let me know. Mcrebbs Mrcrebbs (talk) 20:11, 16 February 2011 (UTC)
- Close. I fixed it for you. after {{Cite web it's a pipe '|' but think you put the letter 'l'. Also if using the {{cite web}} template, you have to specify a title for the reference as well. A minor thing as well is that the reference should go directly after the punctuation, not before it. –AnemoneProjectors– 20:16, 16 February 2011 (UTC)
Checked out this guy and floated article again -- were previous WP articles on this spanish author botched? Three references, looks solid (imo) but if its still not satisfactory let me know.--Tomwsulcer (talk) 13:57, 18 February 2011 (UTC)
- It's much better now than before, yes. Basically it didn't show why he was notable. –AnemoneProjectors– 14:04, 18 February 2011 (UTC)
- If it still needs improvement, let me know. I'm particularly adept at taking a competent article and making it into a real mess. :)--Tomwsulcer (talk) 14:14, 18 February 2011 (UTC)
- The only problem is "fictional book", which implies the book itself is fictional rather than a story or novel about fictional events... –AnemoneProjectors– 14:23, 18 February 2011 (UTC)

Hello, AnemoneProjectors. Would you mind weighing in on this, especially the Téa Delgado part? Flyer22 (talk) 19:42, 24 February 2011 (UTC)
- I've left a comment. I don't remember editing One Life to Live character articles, though maybe I did one or two when I've been working on the list of soap opera villains! –AnemoneProjectors– 20:08, 24 February 2011 (UTC)
- Don't you think they should use a screenshot? Aren't pictures meant to cropped or made low res so they can't make profitable copies anyway?RAIN*the*ONE BAM 20:24, 24 February 2011 (UTC)
- They're both screenshots, but I believe the original one is from the opening titles of the show (correct me if I'm wrong). But that's fine. But I think it could have its resolution lowered a little bit. –AnemoneProjectors– 20:59, 24 February 2011 (UTC)
- The former one isn't a screenshot. It's a promotional shot, but I fixed its licensing after Raintheone reverted to it. Flyer22 (talk) 21:06, 24 February 2011 (UTC)
- Fair enough. Promo shots are just as good though :) –AnemoneProjectors– 21:10, 24 February 2011 (UTC)
- The other one is listed as a promo, so I think adding the incorrect tags on purpose can carry a warning, can't it?RAIN*the*ONE BAM 21:12, 24 February 2011 (UTC)
- If it was done on purpose, yes. But I don't think 5teevee5 did it on purpose. If you look at the length of his talk page, it's pretty clear that he's been very unfamiliar with adding images correctly (which includes licensing and all that). I would wager that he only recently learned what to do by copying the format from some other image and then filling in the correct information when uploading it to a different image; the only thing is...he's still unaware of all the different types of licensing. That's why he keeps putting the promotional image license for all his images. Flyer22 (talk) 00:49, 25 February 2011 (UTC)
- Well aslong as no more happen, or else I'll have warn him, because I've assumed good faith now.RAIN*the*ONE BAM 01:59, 25 February 2011 (UTC)
- I'm inclined to agree. If he's been told how to correctly licence the images he uploads and still does it wrong then a warning is in order for the next time. –AnemoneProjectors– 08:41, 25 February 2011 (UTC)
- It may be time for that warning. Also, judging by his talk page, he is no stranger to edit warring, no matter the reason/reasons he is being reverted. Flyer22 (talk) 20:38, 26 February 2011 (UTC)
- You know what? I'm going to semi-protect the page. –AnemoneProjectors– 20:46, 26 February 2011 (UTC)
- Just realised it won't help because it's not an IP doing it (though the last one was) –AnemoneProjectors– 20:47, 26 February 2011 (UTC)
- It'll help, in that he'll have to log in to revert again (I'm pretty sure that IP is him). So, yes, thanks for the help. I wasn't even aware that you're an administrator, as I didn't look at your user page too carefully, if at all (though I did just moments ago). I just wish that he would continue to engage in conversation so that we can work something out. I don't love the picture; I just prefer it to his upload. Flyer22 (talk) 20:55, 26 February 2011 (UTC)

Who mentioned the Facebook link on the X Factor US page as a possibility for deletion? 1Dbad (talk) 00:08, 26 February 2011 (UTC)
- I don't think it was me, no. –AnemoneProjectors– 09:30, 26 February 2011 (UTC)
- Oh okay. I didn't think so, but I wasn't 100% sure. I must have misread the history or something, lol. So do you know who did, or is this just something happening as a whole on Wikipedia? 1Dbad (talk) 12:51, 26 February 2011 (UTC)
- I don't know who it was. Generally Facebook pages aren't recommended but in this case I think it should be, it's an official one and it's currently one of the best ways to get info about the show. But I wouldn't use it for references. –AnemoneProjectors– 12:57, 26 February 2011 (UTC)
- I didn't either, but I just pulled up the discussion about it and found out who did it. Apparently a guy (I believe it's a guy) by the username of Alpha Quadrant is trying to get all Facebook pages removed from Wikipedia pages, but luckily everyone seems to be against it so I don't think it'll pass. At least hopefully it won't. And I completely agree! I think as long as it's official it should be fine, especially in this case since like you said it's one of the best sources of information about the show at the moment. And yeah, I wouldn't either. 1Dbad (talk) 12:48, 27 February 2011 (UTC)

unblocking brianwazere
let me know when my block is up please,this is brianwazere (not logged in) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.46.219.31 (talk) 15:23, 27 February 2011 (UTC)
- Your block was indefinite because you were making death threats to other Wikipedia editors. This included on your own talk page, which is why you are unable to edit there. If you wish to calm down, make no more threats and request an unblock, I will enable you to edit your talk page again and do so. –AnemoneProjectors– 15:28, 27 February 2011 (UTC)
- Yes ok fair enough, but if i didn't request an unblock just out interest how long would my block last for?. because to be honest i fell i shouldn't need to request an unblock ye should realize your mistake and unblock me immediately without causing trouble for yourself please! signed-brianwazere —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.44.231.254 (talk) 18:55, 27 February 2011 (UTC)
- I think it would be highly unlikely that someone would ever come along and unblock you, so you would have to request it and show that you understand why you were unblocked, etc. I didn't block you so I didn't make a mistake. I don't think the blocking admin did either, because you made several edits that were vandalism and insulted several editors. Death threats are not on. –AnemoneProjectors– 19:01, 27 February 2011 (UTC)
Well i am not going to beg to unblocked thats what sad people do, so i will just set up another account on another computer so i assure you u haven't seen da last of me on this, i will not beg for anyone or anything and trust me dat user did make a mistake and they will regret it i can assure you! 86.44.231.254 (talk) 19:04, 27 February 2011 (UTC)
- If you create another account, it will be blocked for block evasion. The only way to get out of this is to request an unblock. Don't see it as begging, you don't have to beg. Just address the reasons why you were blocked. –AnemoneProjectors– 19:09, 27 February 2011 (UTC)
ok fine but how do i request and unblock i never had to do it before
- Well, first I allow you access to the page, then you log in as Brianwazere and add
{{unblock | reason=your reason here ~~~~}}
to the page, changing "your reason here" to the actual reason you feel you are ready to be unblocked. Then an admin will come along and review it, and either unblock you or give a reason they have declined to unblock you. You might want to read Wikipedia:Guide to appealing blocks first as well, but I'll go and change your block settings now so you may appeal. –AnemoneProjectors– 19:20, 27 February 2011 (UTC)

- A minor role in a film and a part of a band that aren't famous? That's why. Even members of The Wanted don't have their own articles, and The Wanted are a notable band. If the band becomes notable (if they have a hit single or album), then you can write about the members in the band's article, but none of them are going to be notable individually. –AnemoneProjectors– 00:12, 28 February 2011 (UTC)

X Factor US Discussion Page Edit
I noticed you undid my X Factor US Discussion page edit and said not to do that. May I ask why? All I did was remove my own comments (not anyone else's), and I only did that because I already did them so I didn't see the point of keeping them there. 1Dbad (talk) 01:19, 9 March 2011 (UTC)
- Well firstly it was unclear what you were removing as none of the comments were signed. Secondly, it looks like one comment got changed, and also another one had replies which would make it unclear. I think it's best to leave the comments there, and either close the discussions or mark them as done, or set up archiving so that old comments are moved to a subpage. I think archiving is the best option. I'll set it up. –AnemoneProjectors– 07:45, 9 March 2011 (UTC)
- I can understand that, and I apologize. Those comments were made before I realized I could edit the page with my account, so I just commented when I wasn't logged in and didn't sign anything. (since I knew it'd just use my IP address instead) And one comment of mine I did edit a bit, but I had planned to also delete it later after I did what I left. (I left one part of one of my comments instead of deleting it to remind me of an edit I wanted to do later) And really? I edited one with replies? My bad then. It's funny you mentioned marking them as done though -- I had actually thought about doing that a couple of times myself. I didn't know you could also close discussions or put them in an archive though. Thanks for the info and I'm sorry about that, I'm still fairly new to editing Wiki pages, discussions and all of that. And that sounds good, definitely go ahead and set up the archive and we'll just do that. 1Dbad (talk) 10:39, 9 March 2011 (UTC)

- Great! Thanks for that. If you don't mind, could you help me on using it? Want to make sure I don't mess anything else up again, haha. And huh, I hadn't thought of that. You're definitely right that archiving is the better option then.

And that sounds good, definitely go ahead and set up the archive and we'll just do that. 1Dbad (talk) 10:39, 9 March 2011 (UTC)
- And oh darn it. I didn't realize you were on right now and I just tried to edit my comment, but since you already replied to it it wouldn't let me do it. (I believe that's why it wouldn't let me) But if you don't mind I still want to include how I was going to edit my reply to your comment below, since I think I explained myself better on it. Hope that's okay. :
- "Oh I'm sorry about that, I made those comments before I realized I could edit the page with my account, so I just commented when I wasn't logged in and didn't bother to sign anything. (didn't really see a need to at the time since it would have just left my IP address anyway) I can understand your concern though, but I assure you I only dealt with comments that were mine. (they just weren't signed) As for the comment changes, yes I did that as well. Most of my comments that I already did, or decided against doing, I removed; and with one or two others I just edited them a bit. One I just edited instead of deleting because there was one thing on it I wanted to do later, so I thought I'd keep it until I did it as a reminder. (I was going to delete it as well after I did it though) I don't remember edited a comment with a reply though, but I very well could have. If I did then (which apparently I must have since you noticed it) my bad then. Either I thought it wouldn't hurt to remove it or I may not have noticed/remembered it had replies -- I can't really remember at the moment to be honest. But okay, I'll leave my comments there then. Out of curiosity though -- would you like me to sign the comments I did, or just leave them alone? Thought I'd double-check before doing anything else in case I shouldn't do it for some reason. I didn't know you could close discussions though, that's interesting. I did know about marking them as done, since I actually contemplated posting a reply to my comments saying it was done a few times, lol. (I ultimately decided against it though, obviously) I also didn't know you could archive them either, but I agree with you that that sounds like the best thing to do. Thanks for offering to set it up too, I'd really appreciate it! Now you can either teach me how to archive the comments of mine I want to or I can tell you which of my comments I'd like archived. Your choice.
- Oh! Before I forget...I want to say thank you for all the info about all of this, I'm still fairly new to editing Wikipedia and doing things here. So all the help you have been giving me the past few weeks is greatly appreciated. :) (and trust me, I'm learning) I really want to apologize for all of my foolish mistakes though, I'll try to be more careful so I don't mess up so much like I (unintentionally) have been recently. Hopefully one day I'll get as good as you and some of the other users here, haha."

Help Needed Thread

Am I right in removing Aaron Livesy and Jackson Walsh from the supercouples list? They worked hard to get refs on there mentioning the fact they are supercouples.. but Jaaron superfans insist they are a super couple, just because.. the ref used before didn't mention it, i read on them a lot and have never seen it. Plus the new ref they have added is a soaplife magazine without the correct data like issue, p no. etc... looks made up. Can you help? (I had a go at cleaning Jackson, they sneakily covered DS episode summaries as references and named them like proper news articles... but I noticed so cut the storylines right down. They have put them next to each other in the ED template. It's fancruft madness. aha)RAIN*the*ONE BAM 17:21, 23 February 2011 (UTC)
- British soaps don't tend to have supercouples - there aren't even any EastEnders couples listed. I would say it needs a source saying they're described as a supercouple specifically. If there's no issue number etc, then it's unverifiable. –AnemoneProjectors– 17:30, 23 February 2011 (UTC)

It looks like that greg jessop and tanya will be marrying on the same day as the royals like I said before. They have definetly confirmed that there will be a couple marrying on the same day asnd as they are marrying in April it seems likely that Tanya and Greg are the couple. Please if you may could you revert my edits on greg jessop so it says that they may be wedding on that day as 1) i cant find them as it was a long time day 2) you only need the wedding part not the ian beale and phil and shirley part.

One Night in Heaven edit
Just so you know, in the line "The song has been noted for its similarity to a UK top 20 chart hit from 1975, Highwire performed by Linda Carr", I meant the "whom" tag to apply to the "has been noted" bit as in who has noted this song for its similarity. As for removing the line altogether I was willing to wait for the editor who put that in to add a citation (I left a general note on that editor's talk page about the many problems in the article) but I'm also cool with you deleting it as it seems very unlikely to me that a citation was ever going to be produced for that particular bit. SQGibbon (talk) 01:23, 15 March 2011 (UTC)
- Oh ok. If you had put the tag after the word "noted" I would have realised that and probably left it in. It looked like you were asking who Linda Carr is/was. It was probably original research anyway. –AnemoneProjectors– 01:31, 15 March 2011 (UTC)
- Yep, you're right, I should have placed it better. But I think it worked out for the best anyway as it does look like original research and properly tagged would probably have stuck around for a long time. SQGibbon (talk) 01:52, 15 March 2011 (UTC)
Notification: changes to "Mark my edits as minor by default" preference
Hello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have (or very recently had) enabled.
On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (consensus discussion, guidelines for use at WP:MINOR). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was true
. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to false
in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and all users will still be able to manually mark their edits as being minor in the usual way.
For well-established users such as yourself there is a workaround available involving custom JavaScript. If you have any problems, feel free to drop me a note.
Thank you for your understanding and happy editing :) Editing on behalf of User:Jarry1250, LivingBot (talk) 20:11, 15 March 2011 (UTC)
- Oh no, I better do the JavaScript thing so I don't keep marking my minor edits as non-minor and my non-minor edits as minor. –AnemoneProjectors– 20:15, 15 March 2011 (UTC)
- Actually I think I'll leave it due to the times I've accidentally left an edit as minor when I was in a hurry. I just hope I realise when I'm ticking the box by mistake and untick it before I save. –AnemoneProjectors– 20:20, 15 March 2011 (UTC)

Bit of confusion....
Right you know i've been editing the 'list off ee charcacters 2008' page well you seem to be reverting a lot of my edit or 'cuing' them. I, on say Mr Lister put a gap form his first apeparance and his storylines so it looks much neater than from what it is know. I think that you do need paragraphs to seperate there first appearecne from there storylines. I have not left some gaps on more minor charcters as they havent got enough storylines to fill a paragrpah. I hope i have meade it clear why i leave the gap as before it was very untidy. I think i finished..... few!!!!MayhemMario (talk) 13:17, 20 March 2011 (UTC)

Oh! What a Lovely War
Dear Anemone, I refer to Oh! What a Lovely War, which seems to breach Wikipedia's core policies of Neutral Point of View, as well as No Original Research, and Verifiability, and Burden of Evidence. The main problems occur in the long, biased and unreferenced sections 1 (Synopsis) and 3 (Themes and social commentary).
There is far too much plot summary and detail in the so-called Synopsis section, heavily skewed to reflect political bias, without a single footnote supporting the assertions.
Section 3, on "Themes and social commentary reads as a critical socio-political essay without a single reference. As a musician I am familiar with the songs and with the film and much of the material here is presented with bias and lack of balance. Anyone coming to the film for the first time would not get a balanced view of it via this article.
Please could you flag Sections 1 and 3 of this article as lacking in citation, with a warning that it could be removed. As a whole, the article would benefit from a complete re-write and clean-up to meet wikipedia's standards. The entire article should , carry several templates regarding citation, clean-up and neutrality attached. The film was an important one, certainly Left-wing, but the article is doggedly "red" in political persuasion and displays almost no balance or neutrality. It seems only to reflect the views of the author.
It should be watched and possibly deleted if no one steps forward with a re-write, or at the least Sections 1 and 3 should be deleted. Unreferenced politically-skewed plot summary and "social commentary" sections along the lines of university critical essays are surely contrary to Wikipedia guidelines.
Oddly enough, despite its disregard of Wikipedia core policy, this article is on a number of project websites.
Thanks for action and for monitoring this article. FClef (talk) 02:02, 22 March 2011 (UTC)
- Update - I have removed section 3 of the article (see History) as non-neutral, containing original research, and unverifiable. Please watch the article. I think most contributions are unsigned by users and just have an IP number. I would be grateful if you could monitor this article, or pass it to another Admin if you think it is more in their ball park. Please let me know. FClef (talk) 03:52, 22 March 2011 (UTC)

Hello1 I am just asking about your article on Rainie Cross you did. You never added it to the wikipedia just made a copy in some ways. If i wanted to start a article how would i go about it without it being published?--MayhemMario (talk) 18:11, 23 March 2011 (UTC)
- You mean you want to make a draft in your userspace? You create a page like User:MayhemMario/sandbox. You could go to edit your userpage, type
[[/sandbox]]
, then preview the page and click on the red link and start the page, or you could go to your userpage and in the address bar just add /sandbox to the end. Obviously you can put anything in place of the word "sandbox". See WP:USERSUBPAGE for more info. –AnemoneProjectors– 19:05, 23 March 2011 (UTC)

Leona Lewis template
Regarding your edit summary, the reason I added them to the template was because that's what I was advised to do when I sought help on creating books (it's a new thing for me). My guess for these additions is to keep everything to do with a subject together: I agree that the category is probably redundant in the template (books aren't meant to just be a collection of links for convenience, based on what I understand about them), though when adding the category and making similar edits, I was merely being consistent. Thanks. Acalamari 22:59, 25 March 2011 (UTC)
- I understand, but I just dislike it. I took the bold off, it's the icons that make it look bad. I mean, Template:EastEnders has a link to a portal at the bottom but it looks neater beacuse there's no icon. These icons are all over templates now but I don't see the point. –AnemoneProjectors– 23:18, 25 March 2011 (UTC)
- Actually, I just previewed the Leona Lewis template without the icons, and you're right, the book/category parts at the bottom look better without them. Where would be the most appropriate place to raise this? Acalamari 09:59, 26 March 2011 (UTC)
- I honestly have no idea! I've just never liked the icons, I think they're unnecessary and a casual Wikipedia reader wouldn't need them there. They seem to be purely decorative. But no, I don't know where you could bring it up. The only thing that springs to mind is something like Wikipedia:Navigation templates but that's an essay, I think a MOS, policy or guideline page might be better. –AnemoneProjectors– 10:02, 26 March 2011 (UTC)
- The only place I thought of was Template talk:Navbox musical artist: so far from what I've seen, it's mainly that type of template that has the icons (and of course, I am guilty of adding icons to a few of them!). However, more discussion seems to take place on Wikipedia talk:Navigation templates, so even with it being an essay, I think I'll post there about this topic, and if someone else knows a better location for the discussion to take place, it can be moved accordingly. Finally, I'd like to say sorry if my first note here came across as annoyed: I assure you it wasn't meant to be (it was nearly 11pm, and I probably should have waited until the morning to discuss it!) Best. Acalamari 10:23, 26 March 2011 (UTC)
- Oh it didn't come across as annoyed. Yeah maybe that is the best place to discuss it then. I noticed that Template:Doctor Who has the icons too, an example of a non-musical artist using them. –AnemoneProjectors– 10:26, 26 March 2011 (UTC)
- Okay, that's good! I posted at Wikipedia talk: Navigation templates#Book, category, etc. icons on templates, which I think covers what we've talked about here. Acalamari 10:44, 26 March 2011 (UTC)

Just A Heads-Up
Be sure to remove any edits to the US X Factor page saying that Steve Jones might be the host. That's already been confirmed not to be true in a video interview with Dermot when he said that he had made the shortlist for being the host along with 4 other people, and although he didn't say who the other 4 were, he did say that they were all Americans. Which rules Welsh Steve Jones out immediately. I'll try to find the video link later, I remember it was from ITN's youtube. And don't worry, I'll continue trying to help as well, but I can only check so often, lol. 1Dbad (talk) 02:42, 27 March 2011 (UTC)
- Although it is probably not true, these things change and Dermot's word cannot be taken for gold. Even if it is the best we have, this subject is so flakey because there is so much media speculation. Nothing should be added until a line up is confirmed and anyone added who is in the shortlist, only added if Cowell actually confirms it as fact, by no one else.Rain the 1 BAM 02:53, 27 March 2011 (UTC)
- Well obviously anything not from a reliable source will be removed. I think I did read somewhere that the shortlisted hosts were all American. I don't think Nicole Scherzinger should be the host though! That's just silly. She should be a judge. On the UK version! Repacing Cheryl Cole, who's bloody useless! –AnemoneProjectors– 09:52, 27 March 2011 (UTC)
- I seriously doubt they would change, since they obviously have narrowed it down to a shortlist. Now if they hadn't done that already then I admit there might be a possibility, but I seriously doubt things would change this late in the game and so close to it being confirmed. And actually, yes they can. Unless we see a video or radio interview from Simon, Steve Jones, ect. or a very reliable source stating otherwise then I would believe Dermot's words over anything else since they're the closest we have to official confirmation. Otherwise I do agree with you that nothing should be added until the line-up is confirmed and that add nothing about anyone being on the shortlist unless it comes from Simon's mouth or some of the other people officially involved in the show. (like producers, ect.) 1Dbad (talk) 02:48, 28 March 2011 (UTC)

My line up would be:
- US: Simon Cowell, LA Reid, Shania Twain, Paula Abdul. (aparently enrique is being touted as a host with a female).
- UK: Gary Barlow, Louis Walsh, Nicole Scherzinger, Dannii Minogue. — Lil_℧niquℇ №1 [talk] 22:18, 27 March 2011 (UTC)

- I don't want Cowell to leave either but I can't imagine him staying. The show's in its eighth season and Cowell seems to get easily bored. I really Hollywood Magazine a few weeks ago and it said that Cowell had originally approached JLO, Marc Anthony and Tommy Mottla for the pannel. But Mottla seemed unkeen as he had not been involved in the industry for a while. Lopez had already been offered Idol and was more drawn to that whereas Anthony didn't want the couple's marriage to be exploited on air.

- Well we don't know what day of the week it'll go out in the US so maybe he'll just fly across the Atlantic twice a week! But that wouldn't be good for mentoring his acts. I don't think he'd be able to do both. But Simon Cowell is The X Factor! –AnemoneProjectors– 22:46, 27 March 2011 (UTC)

Mill articles
WP:MILLS convention is that mill articles are housed at (mill name), (location) titles. See WT:MILLS#Mass moving of mill articles. Mjroots (talk) 19:47, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
- Are you sure? Just looking at WP:MILLS#DYK I can see several not in that format. It's not really right to disambiguate article titles that aren't ambiguous. Also that discussion starts off asking if it's a naming convention of the project but it wasn't answered. I can't see anything on WP:MILLS about this. Anyway I just happened to come across the article on the mill at Breachwood Green, didn't think there'd be another one on Wikipedia with that name so checked, there wasn't so I moved the article. –AnemoneProjectors– 19:56, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
- Oh sorry it says "it is the convention" not asking "is it", I misread that. But has it really been discussed or was it something just decided by someone? I don't see it being necessary to do. –AnemoneProjectors– 19:57, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
- I'm as sure as I can be, seeing as I set up the WP. The naming of such articles is for consistency across the project, but with deference to WP:NRHP which was going before WP:MILLS was (i.e. their naming convention takes precedence in respect of NHRP listed mills). Mjroots (talk) 20:04, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
- Neither project makes any mention of this "convention". I'm not going to get involved but I'm pretty sure it goes against the general Wikipedia naming conventions. –AnemoneProjectors– 20:35, 28 March 2011 (UTC)

Ian Gallagher
Please do not take away the new material I added to Ian Gallagher. I have included several sources that discuss the character, how that character was developed and critical response to the character. Harley Hudson (talk) 00:45, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
- Several? Three sources, the rest are episode citations. In reality it's just a article with too much in universe information. You did not create it under the correct namespace either, there is more than one Ian G... TBH the the british Ian is more notable looking online. It needed a lot of work too, more development info, the citations were laid out incorrectly all round. I didn't see the much or any critical response?Rain the 1 BAM 01:16, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
- If I understand Wikipedia's policy on notability, three independent reliable sources about a subject are sufficient to establish the notability of the subject. if you believe that the article is named wrong then please rename it. If you believe that the British Ian is more notable then you are free to write an article about him. If you think that the article needs work then work on it. But please do not simply remove the information since the character is notable. Thank you. Harley Hudson (talk) 01:32, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
- It is notable enough for a list entry perhaps, as it stands of course. In context this is a new character. Lets now break down the chosen sources. The online ones are fine, at the end of the day they are just dicussing development, they can be expanded on. The rest are episode citations which need more info.. The references need filling out with the correct parameters. Might help if you read up on the MOS for writing about fiction. I'm not going to work on the article, Shameless is great but it needs a lot of work. It is up to you to name the article correctly and not mess a DAB page up.Rain the 1 BAM 01:50, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
- If the online sources are fine then I don't understand why you have a problem with the article. I don't understand what "episode citations which need more info" means. I put the name of the episode and the episode number. I don't see anything in the guidelines that says that the way I wrote the article is wrong. I wrote about what we know about the character and I wrote about how the creator came up with the character, how the actor who plays the character approaches it and a little about how critics have responded to the character. You tell me it's up to me to work on the article. If you can explain how I'm supposed to do that when three different people constantly take the article out I'd like to hear it. Harley Hudson (talk) 02:07, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
- You could make a sandbox in this name User:Harley Hudson/Sandbox to carry out your edit tests, expand upon on it until there are enough sources. It could be moved at a later date. The template for citing episodes is at Template:Cite episode, it will explain more info. Webcite sources need setting out correctly, publishers-work-author-url-date-access date-title and so on... If there are no more than three sources I would not bother until there is more info and keep it into a list. When writing plot summaries, keep them short and breif.

- I really don't care whether you would bother writing an article with three sources. Your not doing so doesn't mean that others wouldn't or that you should undo their hard work based on your opinion.

Harley Hudson (talk) 02:28, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
- I've tried to help. It's not my opinion, along the way it has been met with a general consensus. My satisfaction has nothing to do with the way sources are formatted, it is another pointer in the manual of style... plus it helps fight link rot. You really don't care? That is also fine.

Please point out this "general consensus" that three sources are not enough to write an article, because I don't believe there is one and there certainly isn't one that there have to be 30. Whether or not a particular reference is formatted in a particular way is not relevant to its usefulness as a source or whether the source counts toward the subject being notable.

There isn't one with thirty, I was just pointing out I include plenty of OOU info and it is never contested. Again did I say it was, I was again pointing out some improvements for when you do make the article, which in my view was offering helping hand.

"The article will not exist until it is correct"? Putting aside the implied threat, what you're saying is that you have no objection to the existence of the article, just the format. So I take it that if I put it back and format it the way you insist you won't undo it again. And I never said I didn't want help; I said that whatever you think you're doing here isn't helpful. Harley Hudson (talk) 02:54, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
- No threat from me, stating a fact. I have no objection once it written to an acceptable standard and place under the appropriate name space. More sources though, there must be some lying around on the net. It's not helpful for you that I am contesting this, I'm helping Wiki though..Rain the 1 BAM 03:11, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
- Your "acceptable standard" has no basis in Wikipedia guidelines. WP guidelines say that multiple reliable sources mean that a WP article can be written. I have provided multiple reliable sources yet you still object. Your objections have no basis in fact. Harley Hudson (talk) 05:40, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
This discussion is too long for me to be bothered about reading but if you want to make an article, please make a new one instead of writing over an existing disambiguation page. Thanks :-) –AnemoneProjectors– 08:04, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
- There is already an existing disambiguation page. It's at Ian Gallagher (disambiguation). There is no reason why there needs to be two disambiguation pages for two articles and a list. Harley Hudson (talk) 15:55, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
- No, you cut and pasted the disambiguation page to that title, which was a redirect and is now again a redirect. So that's two mistakes you made, because you should never cut and paste articles to rename them. –AnemoneProjectors– 15:58, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
- Ian Gallagher (disambiguation) has existed for almost two months and was created by a robot. There is no reason why it can't serve as a disambiguation page and there is no reason why there should be two such pages. This whole mess started because you unilaterally decided that the character was not notable. I have explained why the character is notable based on the existence of multiple sources and a second editor agrees with me. Did you even read the article or the sources before deciding to undo the work? I doubt it since you've said here that you can't be arsed to read your own talk page about a problem that you caused. If you would stop being so pig-headed and would admit that you might possibly have made a mistake and that the page that actually includes the word "disambiguation" in its name is a good enough disambiguation page then this whole problem would be solved.

- You just want your own way and are hounding three editors ever since you joined wiki yesterday. 5 editors have stated why they believe the page is how it stands..Rain the 1 BAM 16:58, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
- Actually, one editor has said that the character isn't notable, which isn't true since it has multiple sources (although he probably didn't bother to read them), and two others have acted as enforcers without offering any answer to the very simple question of why there need to be two pages to distinguish amongst three articles while throwing around accusations of "vandalism" and "disruption". Two editors have voiced their support for having the article on the American character under the character's name. Who is it that just wants his own way, the person who's trying to add an article to the encyclopedia or the people who are preventing it from happening for no good reason?

- Go ahead and create your page, all I'm asking is that you don't create it on top of the disambiguation page Ian Gallagher. Thanks. –AnemoneProjectors– 17:34, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
- I'll even split the page history for you. –AnemoneProjectors– 17:38, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
- Actually, one editor has said that the character isn't notable, which isn't true since it has multiple sources (although he probably didn't bother to read them), and two others have acted as enforcers without offering any answer to the very simple question of why there need to be two pages to distinguish amongst three articles while throwing around accusations of "vandalism" and "disruption". Two editors have voiced their support for having the article on the American character under the character's name.

Harley Hudson (talk) 17:23, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
- You just want your own way and are hounding three editors ever since you joined wiki yesterday. 5 editors have stated why they believe the page is how it stands..Rain the 1 BAM 16:58, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
- The DAB is at Ian Gallagher (disambiguation). There don't need to be two. Wherever I work on it, the end result is still that it should be at Ian Gallagher with a note directing people looking for other Ian Gallaghers to go to Ian Gallagher (disambiguation). Harley Hudson (talk) 16:37, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
I've done that. Now we can deal with the notability of the character appropriately. By the way, I don't watch Shameless, but do they have completely different storylines? Are the two Ian Gallaghers not just different versions of the same character? Should they not both be covered in the same article? –AnemoneProjectors– 17:44, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
- Reading that article the SL's match British Ian's storyline totally. Just about 2 characters have different names.Rain the 1 BAM 17:49, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
- So it looks like both series have the same storylines and the same characters. So it's just American characters and British characters and that's the only difference. They probably have the same personality too. I'm just wondering why a British actor is playing him! –AnemoneProjectors– 18:37, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
- It is daft, they are essentially the same subject. Mandy has a different second name, Yvonne is called Linda.. that appears to be the slight difference. That article has issues I'll pull up on.Rain the 1 BAM 19:51, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
- Ah so there are some differences. But yeah, pull up on the issues! –AnemoneProjectors– 19:53, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
- They are not the same subject, "essentially" or otherwise. They are different characters with different story arcs on different series. Yes, the American version is drawn from the British one and they are similar but the American series is not a direct remake of the British one and there have been plenty of diversions both for this character and for the show. And even if the two shows were shot-for-shot, line-for-line identical, it doesn't matter. What matters is whether there are sources about the American character and there are. Psycho (1998 film) is practically a shot-for-shot remake of the earlier film but there's an article for it becuase there are sources, just like there are sources for this character. American Ian is not played by a British actor. Cameron Monaghan was born in California. Harley Hudson (talk) 01:17, 30 March 2011 (UTC)
- Well, when I wrote that, the infobox said that Dominic Monaghan played him, and you wrote that, so I believed it. Someone else changed it a few hours ago. And I disagree that there are lots of sources. There are
threefour that are independent of the subject and one of those is a blog. That's not really enough. –AnemoneProjectors– 07:50, 30 March 2011 (UTC)

How do i do that? it looks cool though i dont have enough talk to fill one up.... Another question, how do you see who is watching/stared a page? (If you even can!) --MayhemMario (talk) 16:40, 3 April 2011 (UTC)
- Hi, if you want a bot to archive your talk page like a bot does mine, you can follow the instructions at User:MiszaBot/config. There are other bots that do it but this is the one I use. If you go to the edit screen of this page you should seen the template {{User:MiszaBot/config}}, which is how the Bot knows what to do. You can't actually see who is watching a page but you can see how many people are watching it, go to the page history and there are some links "External tools: Revision history statistics · Contributors · Revision history search · Number of watchers · Page view statistics", click "Number of watchers" and as long as there are more than 30, it'll tell you how many. This page has 83 stalkers! (Well, me and 82!). –AnemoneProjectors– 16:51, 3 April 2011 (UTC)
Mine has well less than 30 =(.... How do you submit a article to reach good article status? --MayhemMario (talk) 17:07, 3 April 2011 (UTC)
- I suggest that you read Wikipedia:Good article criteria to see if the article meets Wikipedia's standards. If it does, then you can go to WP:GAN and follow the instructions on how to nominate it. Be aware though that you may be waiting some time for it to be reviewed though. Also, if the article isn't quite up to scratch, I would suggest that you carry out a lot of work on it before you nominate it.--5 albert square (talk) 17:13, 3 April 2011 (UTC)

Hey, check out the recent edits. The person editing is saying they are Linda Davidson. They seem genuine but are unsourced, and she has completely removed all the personal information about herself which were sourced from published material, like her relationship with Nej Adamson and what her mother did. Plus, she she got her date of departure wrong as Mary definitely left in 1988! Should the edits stay?GunGagdinMoan 11:42, 4 April 2011 (UTC)
- I stand corrected, she's left the dancing bit in.GunGagdinMoan 11:45, 4 April 2011 (UTC)
- Hmmmmmm, I would send her a police notice about conflicts of interest, and some of what was added looks like advertising as well, so perhaps clean up the page and request citations, or revert it all though she might feel insulted by that?? But it would need cleaning up, for example she's used her first name where we should be using her last name, etc. –AnemoneProjectors– 11:48, 4 April 2011 (UTC)

Semi-locking request for Titanic (1997 film) article
AnemoneProjectors, will you semi-lock the Titanic (1997 film) article? An IP is refusing to adhere to consensus established on the talk page and keeps nitpicking at the lead. I am pretty sure I know who it is (which user) and have stated as much on the talk page. As we know, the article being locked won't stop his user edits, but it will stop him from editing as an IP. This will also draw out the user, and, if he strikes again as that user, I will report him in some form or another. I may even request a WP:User check. Flyer22 (talk) 15:10, 7 April 2011 (UTC)

About the Foxes
Was it ever said online that all of the Fox siblings (Denise, Kim and Daphne) were just half-sisters? Arjoccolenty (talk) 11:35, 11 April 2011 (UTC)
- I can't remember, but they're listed as half sisters on here. Daphne's relationship to Denise and Kim was only ever given as "sister", so even if Denise and Kim are half sisters, there's no reason to assume that Daphne is a half sister to both of them. She could be a full sister of one. But the EE website says Denise and Kim are sisters. So I don't know where this half sister thing came from. –AnemoneProjectors– 11:59, 11 April 2011 (UTC)

- So in conclusion, there must be sourced discussion about the visual appearance of the character. That means hairstyle, costume, makeup, etc. But at least it means we can use non-free images in rare instances. At the moment, I can't think of any character where it would be appropriate. –AnemoneProjectors– 17:27, 11 April 2011 (UTC)

Thanks for all the help...
Just popped in to say hi and to say thanks for all the work you have doen to help me make EastEnders 2008 a better article!It looks good now with the paragraph at the top edited by guess who... YOU! and all the articles full to the brim with refs. It now looks exactly like EastEnders 2010 (well not exactly) as it has the whole new 'others' table which you kindly helped me with. Its been good fun, im EXHAUSTED! day in day out adding more,changing, swapping, deleting, changing, deleting again.Im having a extended break like Bianca Jackson though i'll probably come back tomorow! I cant stay away... See you after my extended break (i.e. tomorow!)
QUICK FACT? Did you know that overall i have spent 2 days on the List of Eastenders characters 2008 (well you and me).--MayhemMario (talk) 17:10, 20 April 2011 (UTC)
- I haven't checked your other changes yet but yeah it's good, are you done with it now? Please don't start on any others lol at least not for 6 months so I can have a rest ;) –AnemoneProjectors– 17:45, 20 April 2011 (UTC)

Molly Conlin
As you can see i have undone your edit on Molly Conlin as i thought why? You seem to have done this on your own not with any discussion to any other users. If you didnt have to discuss things before you do them then i would go round and split off every EastEnders character in Wikipedia. I cant go round deleting articles without saying or having a appropriate reason. To be honest i dont see why its bad. It looks better than many other articles. If you look at James Forde he is only known for playing Liam Butcher yet he has got his own article, Maisie Smith again same reason. Himesh Patel same reason, Kylie Babbington same reason, Belinda Owusu same reason. All these articles have less than Molly Conlin so why delete her? Kylie Babbington is ONLY known for EastEnders as it is her ONLY tv role. Sorry i'm having a BIG mone at you im just a bit annyoed you didnt discuss it with anyone else before you decided to delete it. MayhemMario (talk) 13:31, 23 April 2011 (UTC)
- (talk page stalker) Hi Mario, AP didn't need to discuss it because it was already discussed here and here, and both discussions concluded that she is not yet notable enough for a Wikipedia article. The only difference between the article now and then is that she's appeared in a couple TV adverts, which constitutes a minor enough change that the consensus of the deletion discussions should probably stand. Also, WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS isn't a good argument to employ, because it usually results in someone looking at the other articles listed, and deciding maybe some of them should be deleted too! Frickative 14:45, 23 April 2011 (UTC)
- Yes, like Frickative says, there have already been two discussions, and appearing in adverts don't really make her any more notable than she was before. I'm not going to argue over other articles. I'm sorry you're annoyed though. –AnemoneProjectors– 16:33, 23 April 2011 (UTC)
Ken Barlow
Hellorr AP. I'm just wondering if you would be interested in a big collaboration on the article Ken Barlow. I think the article is really neglected and could be GA with work put into it - not that just better than it is now. I've also asked another three editors in addition to you - I think quite a few heads would really help. We each work on a different section.Rain the 1 BAM 16:40, 23 April 2011 (UTC)

File:Emmapillsbury.JPG
Hi AnemoneProjectors, I think I have to disagree with you here. The deletion debate did not discuss the exact images displayed but rather the use of non-free images to illustrate specific characters where there are free images of the actor. If you allow any slightly different image, with a different name to be used then the entire deletion discussion was moot and can be safely ignored by editors. I hardly think that this is a reasonable interpretation. Can you please reconsider - Peripitus (Talk) 23:41, 23 April 2011 (UTC)
- Well, assised from that, I suggest you read the "Characterization" section on Emma Pillsbury. A non-free image would clearly be appropriate here, same as in Eleventh Doctor. –AnemoneProjectors– 23:46, 23 April 2011 (UTC)
- I suppose then that you are ignoring the debate at Wikipedia:Files_for_deletion/2011_January_20#File:SantanaLopezGlee.jpg where an image of this character File:Emma Pillsbury.jpg was discussed and deleted ? I was fairly sure that DrV was the correct place to dispute this. I notice that in your blind reversions of my edits you've taken articles with an image of the actor to an article with no image. I suppose to some that this is an improvement. Peripitus (Talk) 23:55, 23 April 2011 (UTC)
- One person !voted to delete. Nobody addressed the fact that costume was discussed in some of the articles, meaning that fair use images are appropriate. If you want to add images of actors to the articles, you can but please don't put them in the infoboxes. And especially don't add actor images to infoboxes when the same image is already in the article. –AnemoneProjectors– 23:57, 23 April 2011 (UTC)
- If an article is deleted at AFD, but is re-created and the issues from the AFD have been addressed, the article stays and there's no need for a discussion. The same applies to images. The speedy deletion of the three images was incorrect, in my opinion, because the three characters have information on the costume, etc. –AnemoneProjectors– 00:01, 24 April 2011 (UTC)
- I don't know what I was really thinking last night, I was wrong to just reverse your actions like that. I apologise. However I still think those three images should be kept. –AnemoneProjectors– 10:37, 24 April 2011 (UTC)

Eastenders Images
I'm trying to get Eastenders images, so if they start getting uploaded by any one we have never come across, new user or a IP - they are legit and we just need to edit the data - because this lady said we can have them.Rain the 1 BAM 13:21, 21 April 2011 (UTC)
- What do you mean? What images? What lady? –AnemoneProjectors– 13:41, 21 April 2011 (UTC)
- On DS i asked everyone "Have you had your picture taken with a soap actor?" - This lovely lady said she has had loads with EE people - so I then asked if Wikipedia could have them and she said yes. You should come along and suggest how we get them here. I don't want to be cheeky and suggest she put them on Flickr.Rain the 1 BAM 13:44, 21 April 2011 (UTC)
- So they're images for actors' articles, but they'll all have some strange woman in them? That's not very encyclopaedic, is it? lol, does she know that "Wikipedia can have them" means "the whole world can have them"? –AnemoneProjectors– 13:48, 21 April 2011 (UTC)
- You have to be carefull with things like that....--MayhemMario (talk) 13:51, 21 April 2011 (UTC)
- Haha, Mario. I sent her a PM saying besically cut yourself out of the photo, explained everyone will see it and she would have to give permission to hand it over. She has already replied saying she is cropping herself out of them. I just want to know what we will have to do with them, this is a odd way but if she knows how to upload them and hopefully clicks the right tag - they'll be fine right? I didn't get too technical or anything, I've tried it before and it didn't work - that massive template I've emailed many flickr people with, it scares them off.Rain the 1 BAM 14:06, 21 April 2011 (UTC)

- Well we have an image of Shane so she doesn't need to share that one if she doesn't want. Same for June Brown. There's no article for Meryl Fernandes but it doesn't mean we can't have an image, it could go in Afia's list entry. I would say Thomas Law's current image could do with being replaced as it's poor quality. But basically... all of them :D –AnemoneProjectors– 09:42, 22 April 2011 (UTC)

The new one is a little worried about giving the images, if you went on DS and give her a nudge there is a better chance. She doesn't understand why she cannot watermark them lol Why can't you take pictures of the cast? You live really in traveling distance of the studio!Rain the 1 BAM 20:35, 25 April 2011 (UTC)
- lol I've only been to Elstree Studios once and that was for the Big Brother 4 final. I can't just pop down there, it's not just down the road! I don't have a car. To get a train there I'd have to go into London and back out again. Thing about it is if she doesn't herself upload the images, and one of us does it for her, she'll probably have to email OTRS anyway. I suppose she could watermark them and still release the watermarked image with a free licence, as long as it wasn't watermarked with a copyright symbol...

- I was saying that one (or the other one) should be cropped so his body and legs aren't in it. I might be able to get a picture of Larry Lamb, the person who took it said he was ok with it being used but wasn't happy with the original being used because Erin O'Connor was in it and they'd just met, so it might imply they were friends, and then he wasn't sure about it being cropped. –AnemoneProjectors– 20:46, 25 April 2011 (UTC)

- I don't understand OTRS. I don't think you'd be able to do that, but you could upload them on her behalf, I suppose you could put in the "source" part that she gave permission via email or whatever, you might have to give her contact details along with her name as the author.

Cora Cross's storylines are REALLY low. It dosent even hardly look like she has appeared. All that fuss about one character and al that reception/development and she has only got one line of storylines! 1. She could be returning like GSorby said or 2. she was just a plot device to bring rainie back. What do you think? MayhemMario (talk) 10:45, 25 April 2011 (UTC)
- Like I said in my edit summary, "did she do anything? was she pointless? or just a plot device to bring Rainie back?" Other than being a bit of a bitch, she didn't actually do anything, so there's not really any storyline to add, unless someone adds things about what she said. There's not really that much character development info, the personality stuff was seen on screen, though dd she really attempt to heal the rift between Tanya and Rainie? There's lots of reception for Poppy Meadow, so reception doesn't necessarily relate to the amount of screen time a character gets. The rest is just casting quotes. I think anything she did is probably covered by real-world information. –AnemoneProjectors– 11:02, 25 April 2011 (UTC)

Hi, I nominated this for DYK and added you as an author. Hope that was ok. TheRetroGuy (talk) 22:04, 25 April 2011 (UTC)
- Oh of course I don't mind. I had forgotten that it would be eligible for DYK, probably because I didn't start it. Thanks. –AnemoneProjectors– 22:17, 25 April 2011 (UTC)
- You should be listed as an author as well. You edited it before I did. We both added the majority of info. Should not the original creator be listed as well? –AnemoneProjectors– 22:20, 25 April 2011 (UTC)
- I'm down as nominee, but should be an author as well I guess. I basically looked at who'd added teh most info and did it that way, but you're right about the original author. It was originally a two line article which was speedied, but I managed to rescue it. I dropped a note on the user's talk page, but will name a note at the DYK noticeboard. Cheers TheRetroGuy (talk) 22:53, 25 April 2011 (UTC)

Hello Anome
Just wondering you seem to have a lot of experience with good articles. If you were reviewing the article Birth in Sri Lanka what are your thoughts. I know it doesn't have a very informative lead section, I have already been told that by User:Armburst but other than that, what are your thoughts. mauchoeagle (c) 22:08, 26 April 2011 (UTC)
- It's Anemone but I'll let you off. At a glace, other than the lead, it seems quite good. I've never revied a GA, only written them so I might not be the best person to ask. You can always request a peer review. The only thing I did see is that references should go after punctuation, not before it. –AnemoneProjectors– 22:19, 26 April 2011 (UTC)
Connected
Hello. I am not being bias towards Myles and Connor, I am just getting facts straight. Myles and Connor have had all links to them deleted at times, whereas ReConnected have never had all their links deleted (these links include other pages), so is that not showing bias towards ReConnected? I am fine with both links and have no problem with both Myles and Connor and ReConnected sharing the link to Connected, so if the links are shared we can leave it at that. I am just being honest to all the people about Connected as i am not a fan of either group. Thank you. Apkid55. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Apkid55 (talk • contribs) 12:20, 29 April 2011 (UTC)
- I do ask to reply on your own talk page... but anyway. I was talking more about the Connection disambiguation page. Anyway, as for BGT they should probably neither be linked because it does show bias. Connected were more than just Myles and Connor. I guess it's complicated. I don't think we can "share" the links. –AnemoneProjectors– 12:37, 29 April 2011 (UTC)

Marc Zammit
Hey thought you might be interested, on this website http://www.uk.castingcallpro.com/tvshow_view.php?p=1&uid=5 it shows a Marc Zammit being cast in a Feature role. Not yet sure what that entails just thought it might be something you'd want to keep an eye on. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Hunkyfunkybilbo (talk • contribs) 14:36, 2 May 2011 (UTC)

Could you re-apply the semi-protection, as the BLP issues have obviously not gone away yet. Thanks, --♦IanMacM♦ (talk to me) 18:49, 2 May 2011 (UTC)
- Done. I considered it but thought I'd see if it was just a one-off the last time. –AnemoneProjectors– 18:53, 2 May 2011 (UTC)
- Question: I can understand not including alleged gossip about possible affairs in their articles, as that would fail the BLP policy. However, mentioning that they took out a superinjunction in regards to this would be relevant and not fail the policy and would be backed by multiple sources. Thus, can information about the existence of a superinjunction be added? SilverserenC 23:15, 2 May 2011 (UTC)
- It's mentioned on Thomas's page, but it can't be mentioned on the page of the person who took out the superinjunction because the superinjunction blocks the media from reporting the identity of that person, so there are no reliable sources for it. –AnemoneProjectors– 23:20, 2 May 2011 (UTC)
- That sorta falls into a gray area of WP:OR, doesn't it, as enough would be described by the sources to pretty definitively say it was this person, but we can't just say it is unless a reliable source does and they're all under an injunction not to. Seems like a Catch-22. SilverserenC 23:22, 2 May 2011 (UTC)
- TBH I don't know what's been reported but if they've given clues without giving a name then yes it's covered by WP:OR. I'd be surprised if they had been giving clues though. –AnemoneProjectors– 23:25, 2 May 2011 (UTC)
- The Daily Mail gave quite a few clues, actually. If I was more knowledgeable about people in Britain, I could probably figure out who they are. Though it seems Andrew Marr has already admitted to being one of them anyways, so that's one checked off. SilverserenC 23:28, 2 May 2011 (UTC)
- Oh yeah he's fine. He outed himself. I know there are four celebrities with superinjunctions at the moment, and I saw a report that their identities had been revealed on Wikipedia. That's why I started getting involved in one of them. It worried me and I knew I could remove the edits from the page history. But I have no clue to who the other three might be so couldn't even start to look into those articles. –AnemoneProjectors– 23:35, 2 May 2011 (UTC)

Hello
Hello, i've been quite quiet on the EE articles lately after I edited Kat's article a few months ago. Anyways, I was wondering if there is anyting I could be doing on the EE articles. I fancy creating a character's article as I have never created an article for an EE character, maybes Michael Moon or anyone you can think of? Its up to you really, I like the idea of doing some work on EE articles.--AcidBrights (talk) 14:45, 3 May 2011 (UTC)
- Oh I'm not sure really. Michael Moon's already created because the page is a redirect to the list entry, and if it became an article it would copy from the list entry, so technically you wouldn't be creating anything. Also we always discuss before we split off a character from the lists and at the moment there's nobody we want to split off, though there are discussions ongoing. But you can work on articles. Storyline sections can always be shorter, out-of-universe sections can always be longer. We have a category for articles needing information, Category:EastEnders articles in need of real-world perspective, and also our to-do list, which you'll find on any EastEnders-related article's talk page in the WikiProject banner. So although I can't think of anything specific, there are lots of ways you can help out. –AnemoneProjectors– 15:00, 3 May 2011 (UTC)
DYK for Don't Scare the Hare
On 4 May 2011, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Don't Scare the Hare, which you created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that TV quiz show Don't Scare the Hare has been described as "fantasy based toddler telly with an adult twist"? You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, quick check) and add it to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page. |

Hey Anemone, can you restore the one version that Gungadin uploaded with the comment: new sparkly, adorable, cuddly picture? Thanks GSorby - Talk! 19:57, 3 May 2011 (UTC)
- Are you planning to add it to her article an an image of how she used to look? –AnemoneProjectors– 00:38, 4 May 2011 (UTC)
- Yeh cos it's 2007 and it was quite good quality. GSorby - Talk! 10:23, 4 May 2011 (UTC)
- I don't think it's necessary. Do readers need to see how she looked four years ago to significantly increase their understanding of the topic? Would the omission of the image be detrimental to that understanding? –AnemoneProjectors– 10:38, 4 May 2011 (UTC)
- I just noticed there's already an older image in it. The one you wan't isn't really better quality, she just looks younger. –AnemoneProjectors– 16:48, 4 May 2011 (UTC)
- Well yeah it's earlier...the one on there is 2008. GSorby - Talk! 17:50, 4 May 2011 (UTC)

Help!
Yo AP'izzle! It is the time off the month I call for your assistance. Could you restore this last stable version [5] of the List of Hollyoaks characters (2010) article. A few of the characters have gone walkies. (My twinkle has gone funny so I'd have to do a manual repair.) Then as you can see IP's love a good vandal session, so could you protect it? It has been before and proved a big help.Rain the 1 BAM 22:45, 3 May 2011 (UTC)
- I'm confused, why can't you do a manual repair when that's what you're asking me to do? You can just edit the old revision and press save, or view the diff between the old revsion and the current one and use "undo". Meanwhile, I'm unsure if you mean the 7 April revision by you or the 16 April one by AcidBrights. –AnemoneProjectors– 00:36, 4 May 2011 (UTC)
- If you had twinkle there is a button that says restore this version. I've learnt something new, I normally find the old version before the changes and past the relevant parts back into the article - which racks me off normally. I genuinely never realised you could just click save on old revisions, I've never thought of reading the text in the red box either. :/ Rain the 1 BAM 01:38, 4 May 2011 (UTC)
- lolllll that's how we had to revert before the undo button was invented ;) –AnemoneProjectors– 01:39, 4 May 2011 (UTC)

The X Factor (New judges)
Hey Anemone Projectors. I was just messaging you to see if it is a good idea to start to build bridges for the new X Factor judges and who is being link to take over the seats of the judges. E.g. Frankie Sandford has had a lot of attention after meeting with the X Factor producers after digital spy stated here and more sources. Just an idea. :o) --SATURDAYmight. (talk) 18:56, 5 May 2011 (UTC)
- I know I removed a bit about possible judges, but I guess we could mention who is officially a possibility. But it'll all get removed once the actual judges are confirmed, so is it worth it? I won't remove it if you add it. –AnemoneProjectors– 19:02, 5 May 2011 (UTC)
- Yea, i'll get to it. I think it is important people to know who is actually in talks for the panel. Anyway, thanks for your feedback. :) --SATURDAYmight. (talk) 19:05, 5 May 2011 (UTC)
Semi-Protect?
No matter how many times I try to say it or undo their edits, people keep constantly adding back stuff saying Nicole and Steve Walsh are the new hosts and Paula's the final judge, although nothing has been confirmed by Fox. Can we semi-protect the article again? Because I'm think that's all we can really do since no one seems to stop and listen...1Dbad (talk) 22:52, 7 May 2011 (UTC)
- Steve Jones? Yeah I'll semi it again for a week or so. I protected the UK article too because people are adding Gary Barlow and Frankie Sandford as replacements for Simon Cowell and Cheryl Cole. –AnemoneProjectors– 22:54, 7 May 2011 (UTC)
- But I guarantee we'll have an edit request soon to add them! –AnemoneProjectors– 22:56, 7 May 2011 (UTC)
- Oops! Yeah I meant Steve Jones. xD I dunno why I said Walsh. And thanks for that, really appreciated! I had noticed that with the UK article as well so I'm glad you semi-ed that one too. Both articles really need it with how much vandalism is going on. And I'm sure we will! Haha. At least with the US show we'll find out the hosts and final judge tomorrow, so maybe after that people will leave it alone if we're lucky. 1Dbad (talk) 00:35, 8 May 2011 (UTC)
- But I guarantee we'll have an edit request soon to add them! –AnemoneProjectors– 22:56, 7 May 2011 (UTC)

User
Hi. I just wanted to ask a question. There is this user, Fatty2k10 who is continuing to remove sourced stuff (Gary Barlow now X Factor judges) and acting in an agressive manner, how can we stop him doing this? --SATURDAYmight. (talk) 09:14, 9 May 2011 (UTC)
- I've warned him for breaking the three-revert rule. I'll block him if he reverts again. –AnemoneProjectors– 11:25, 9 May 2011 (UTC)
- Thanks for your support :) --SATURDAYmight. (talk) 11:30, 9 May 2011 (UTC)
- I got confused though about Barlow being a judge. I guess we can include him since Cowell said he's definitely going to be one, but his contract isn't signed. But it's confirmed. –AnemoneProjectors– 11:32, 9 May 2011 (UTC)
- Yeah, he must of agreed to do it if Cowell's announced it. The auditions have also been pushed back so they do not clash with Take That's tour. That guy is still being a pain. --SATURDAYmight. (talk) 11:38, 9 May 2011 (UTC)

- Thanks again for your support. So do you think Frankie will get the role over Alesha? I think she probably will as they want Frankie to be the new "Cheryl" and shes had so much media over this yet she hasn't denied anything + Alesha's contract with Strictly.. :) --SATURDAYmight. (talk) 11:54, 9 May 2011 (UTC)
- I can't see Alesha doing it. I don't know what Frankie's like as a person so I don't know if she'd be any good. I'm sure there are better people. –AnemoneProjectors– 12:02, 9 May 2011 (UTC)

There probably is better people to do it, but they are probably looking for someone who is in the public eye at the moment and she's known for her out-spoken opinions. Plus they'll be wanting someone who has a big fan-base and shes known to be the more popular member of The Saturdays. :) --SATURDAYmight. (talk) 12:06, 9 May 2011 (UTC)
- Oh is she outspoken and opinionated? That's a good thing then. Unlike Gary Borelow, right?! –AnemoneProjectors– 12:15, 9 May 2011 (UTC)
- Yeah, that's how she became a huge candidate in the whole thing and when she met with producers they said she was great. I generally don't think Gary is right for the job, although i think he's great; i think he will struggle to say no to people, if you get me? --SATURDAYmight. (talk) 12:23, 9 May 2011 (UTC)

One Direction
About the One Direction article, don't you think an AfD would help, because I have provided sources and so what if a single hasn't been released, there are featured in the press etc and that should count as notable?

Discreptioncy within Albert Beale and Lou Medeemey's marriage
The article here says that Albert and Lou's marriage began in 1939 and ended in 1970. But Albert Beale died in 1965 which would dissolve their marriage after he died. It also said that Harry Beale was the first legitmate child born to Albert and Lou, but he was born in 1936. So shouldn't their marriage be from 1936-1970 and not from 1939-1970? Arjoccolenty (talk) 01:36, 16 May 2011 (UTC)
- Albert Beale says he died in 1965, Lou Beale says he died in 1970. Best place to ask is Talk:Lou Beale or Talk:List of EastEnders characters or WT:EE because I don't know. –AnemoneProjectors– 07:36, 16 May 2011 (UTC)

Also, there are no free images of Tosin Cole or Amanda Fairbank-Hynes, and I feel you shouldn't be bringing this up on a review. –AnemoneProjectors– 16:50, 12 May 2011 (UTC)

Happy footprints
Hello Anemone, as you know I'm willing to promote Footprints in the Sand (song) to GA, but probably you didn't know that you are the main contributor. Because of this, I'm asking permission to you nominate the article, first to a proper PR, and later to a GAN, to avoid future problems with this. Even it is not a rule, is courtesy notify main authors before doing contentious nominations. Also, since you are also the main contributor of Happy (Leona Lewis song) (by over 100 edits than me) it's pretty clear that I need your permission with the article.
On the other hand, could you help me with a revision of "Footprints" prose? You know that I suck at that, thank you so much. Tbhotch* ۩ ۞ 06:51, 18 May 2011 (UTC)
- Of course you're welcome to do that for both. I did kind of want to do Bleeding Love and Spirit (Leona Lewis album) myself, had planned to do them a long time ago, but you could even nominate them if you want. I'm not sure what kind of contributions I've made to Footprints and Happy, if I really have added lots of information or just reverted a lot of vandalism, but if you nominate and get them to GA standard, would you mind if I listed them on my userpage as articles I'd helped to reach GA standard? –AnemoneProjectors– 09:26, 18 May 2011 (UTC)
- Of course I won't get mad for that, I got most of the information from Spirit/Echo and Better in Time articles, so you helped to reach thier (upcoming) GA standard ;) Tbhotch* ۩ ۞ 23:08, 18 May 2011 (UTC)

Anemone, this user NEEDS to be blocked indef. All he's doing is being abusive to other users. Ta GSorby - Talk! 19:11, 24 May 2011 (UTC)
- They've had a final warning, so really I should wait until they're abusive again. –AnemoneProjectors– 19:34, 24 May 2011 (UTC)
I fixed what appeared to me to be an obvious cut&paste move by a red-linked user. After that, I noticed that you, just yesterday, had notes in the deletion log about splitting histories. My fixing of the cut&paste move obviously undid that. At this point I'm not totally certain exactly what you split, so I will get out of the way, and if you want to redo your work from yesterday, please go ahead. Sorry for stepping on your efforts. - TexasAndroid (talk) 14:48, 25 May 2011 (UTC)
- Oh, it's ok because Can't Breathe was a redirect for the Leona Lewis song, which was replaced with the Fefe Dobson song article. I didn't realise that was a cut/paste move rather than a new article. I wanted to retain the redirect to Lewis's album so split the history so that could still be one. The Lewis redirect is at Can't Breathe (Leona Lewis song) and the Dobson is where you put it. So no problems! It's all sorted. –AnemoneProjectors– 15:28, 25 May 2011 (UTC)
User
Hi there mate, sorry for having to bring this to your attention but a user you have blocked in the past, Fatty2k10, is again acting aggressively and inappropriately to myself and other users. He is using both his account and another IP account of User:2.124.196.36 (in which he is swearing and removing requests to follow good faith) to revert changes to articles and to act in an intimidating manner. If you could find time to have a look into this matter i would be very grateful. Many Thanks Yids2010 (talk) 22:56, 29 May 2011 (UTC)
- Yids2010, the would-be article owner of Gary Barlow, sees fit to continually revert valid edits (these consist merely of improving the article and making it less cryptic by specifying exactly where the "greatest songwriter" poll was from), while giving no valid explanation whatsoever ([8], [9], [10], [11]). He/she has also vandalised my talk by accusing me of being Fatty2k10: clearly we have no interests in common, other than the fact that Fatty2k10 made one edit to Barlow recently in an attempt to halt Yids2010's vandalism. It should be noted that Virus101 appears to have a similar agenda ([12]), and has also been heavily involved in Take That-related articles. 2.124.196.36 (talk) 23:01, 29 May 2011 (UTC)
- Well it's certainly right to say where the poll was from, but this edit is not vandalism, it's a perfectly good faith edit. So 2.124.196.36, I suggest you read WP:AGF and stop refering to edits as vandalism. Secondly, please do not edit war! You have both violated WP:3RR and could potentially both be blocked for it. So please take that as a warning. Read WP:BRD. If your edit is reverted and you disagree that it should have been, you should discuss it on the talk page instead of making further edits. This doesn't apply to vandalism, but there has been none in this case. This edit war has been going on for days. So just stop. I don't really care if 2.124.196.36 and Fatty2k10 are the same person, but since Fatty2k10 was warned about his behaviour, it has greatly improved in my opinion. So stop fighting, or I'll fully-protect the article in question. –AnemoneProjectors– 23:23, 29 May 2011 (UTC)
- I'm not too familiar with the project: I apologise if that edit wasn't vandalism. But it's clearly not right for him/her to revert my constructive edits with no justification, and to accuse me of being another editor. I know it's not fashionable to side with an IP over a registered user seeing as we are viewed as the "scum" of Wikipedia by most, but you've stated that the source of the poll should be noted, and I thank you for your moderation. 2.124.196.36 (talk) 23:46, 29 May 2011 (UTC)

Head judge
Hi. According to the sun, he has completely took over Cowell and he is now head judge. here :) --SATURDAYmight. (talk) 22:20, 2 June 2011 (UTC)
- The impression I get reading that is that they're calling him head judge because he's sitting where Simon always sat, not that he actually is the "head judge". I don't imagine Louis would want to move anyway. I don't think any of them can be called "head judge" now. They should just all be equal. In fact, Simon wasn't really a head judge because his vote didn't have any more weight than the others. He was equal as well. Unlike another show I've seen (can't remember which one, but it's old) when one judge had the deciding vote even if it was 2-2. Anyway, I don't see why this should affect the order of the navbox. Louis Walsh has been there the longest, so why not list them in that order? –AnemoneProjectors– 22:33, 2 June 2011 (UTC)

BGT list
I've created List of Britain's Got Talent finalists (in the pattern of the X Factor and similar lists, if you want to cast your eye over it. The main thing I wanted was some consistency on how the acts are referred to e.g. some are called Child Singers while other children are referred to as just singers. I will reference the article in due course. I have also added this link to the template, alongside redlinks for individual finalist pages (as we have for X Factor) because there is no other information on the page for each series other than name, age, act and location. 03md 12:19, 5 June 2011 (UTC)
- OK, good stuff. I will have a look. I don't know if we should refer to people like as "child singers" when we don't refer to people like Susan Boyle as "adult singers". But I suppose it's helpful, so I would go ahead and put it in. –AnemoneProjectors– 12:26, 5 June 2011 (UTC)
- I was thinking the same, but I've tried to keep them consistent with the main series articles. 03md 12:38, 5 June 2011 (UTC)
- Well, with the latest series, I remove the "child" part thinking it wasn't necessary, but I realise now that it probably is. –AnemoneProjectors– 13:04, 5 June 2011 (UTC)
- I've now gone ahead and made a stub for List of Britain's Got Talent finalists (series 5), but I need to spread the word to attract some editors. 03md 19:57, 5 June 2011 (UTC)
- Cool, I think Jai McDowall should be merged there and will bring it up at my AFD! I hope information gets added as nothing was added to the series 3 list and I had to redirect it. It was just empty sections. –AnemoneProjectors– 20:00, 5 June 2011 (UTC)

Question
I've recently been referencing Radio Times online for episode cast details on List of Coronation Street characters (2011), only they seem to delete the page after the week has ended. Is it still a valid reference if you can no longer view it? I've looked at several guideline pages and can't find an answer. Ooh, Fruity @ Ooh, Chatty 19:18, 5 June 2011 (UTC)
- I guess so, but it's a bit tricky though. Is it the same details they would print in the magazine? If so, you should be able to convert it, though the page number etc would not be known. In future, you can archive the pages at http://www.webcitation.org/ as soon as you access them, and include "archivedate=" and "archiveurl=" in the reference. Then they will never go dead. –AnemoneProjectors– 19:23, 5 June 2011 (UTC)
- Oh thanks for that, I think I've probably seen that before but not taken any notice. Yeah, it's the same sort of details they print in the mag, I just don't know what page they're on or anything. I'll archive in future, thanks for the help :) Ooh, Fruity @ Ooh, Chatty 19:35, 5 June 2011 (UTC)
- Quite often if a newspaper reference goes dead and we can't find an archive or a replacement, we just remove the url and treat it as an offline reference. The same could be done in this case, I suppose. But yes, do archive in future. It's good to do it anyway as anything can go dead in the future. Though I only do it with sites I know go dead. –AnemoneProjectors– 19:37, 5 June 2011 (UTC)

Celebrity Juice
Hi,
Sorry to bother you, but I had an editing opinion question to ask you. As I am an inferequent editor and don't know many mods, I thought of you.
On the Celebrity Juice page, where I contribute, I am having a few problems. There are certain people like BSBOfficial who are changing the look of the page, by adding a Captains section to each series grid, which I find unnecessary as a simple note would suffice under each series grid. Also Celebrity Juice was part of 24 Hour Panel People. I set up a special section titled "Other Episodes" talking about the special episodeas it was broadcast on the Internet and then in Chunks on BBC as part of Comic Relief on BBC, not ITV2 as Juice is usually aired. It is not part of Series 5 at all. Different Network, Different look. Yet BSBOfficial (who is suspected as being a sockpuppet) keeps on adding it to Series 5 as Episode 4b. (Other panel shows, like 8 out of 10 Cats, or Would I lie to you? credited their appearance on 24PP in a separate block on the Episodes page and not as part of a particular series.)
I'm trying to handle everything but I don't know how to come to a consensus about this particular page without getting into edit wars and without cluttering the page. I was wondering if you could take a look at it and give some Advice for proper page maintenance. Who do you think is right? Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

- I've had a brief look at the two and I agree with your version of the page. If he's a suspected sockpuppet, why has nobody started an SPI or requested a block? Sockpuppets should be blocked. –AnemoneProjectors– 16:50, 7 June 2011 (UTC)
It's happening again. Well somethings going on. After a few days rest, now someone else has did a little bit of editing. I think the sockpuppet thing is happening as the person put a note on one of their posts, with BSBOfficial at the end meaning that this could be the same person as earlier this week using another account. Is that what "sockpuppet" means? I don't know how to request a block of a "sockpuppet"? Do you know how? In any regards, I am confused as to what the appropriate thing is to do and if this person's edits are valid, or if I should revert back to my original edits? He has just reverted my reverts. Wold you be able to sort it out with him? Just to reiterate why I didn't like a captains column in the grid is because it would make for "busy grids" with too many columns, when just a note on the bottom will suffice. Once again, I'm sorry to bother you.65.94.246.123 (talk) 17:01, 9 June 2011 (UTC)samusek2
- I think they've just edited while logged out, maybe they were somewhere they couldn't log in. I don't think it's sockpuppetry as they put their account name in an edit summary to let people know. Well, you two are going to have to discuss the page layout at Talk:Celebrity Juice and try to come to some sort of compromise because you clearly want the article one way and the other editor was the article another way. It's best to discuss first before reverting again, try to reach an agreement first. If you can't agree, there are steps that can be taken. –AnemoneProjectors– 17:13, 9 June 2011 (UTC)
hi question about my block appeal
hi there, i have recently appealed my block as a user here on Wikipedia, however since i couldn't edit my own talk page i had to appeal via email to that email address given for appealing blocks and i was just wondering since you are an admin here you might be able to tell how long it will be before i will hear back from them?, will i receive an email reply or will they write on my talk page?
and finally i mentioned in my appeal that i would apologize and take full responsibly for my actions of late whether that be making invalid edits or abusing you and the other users
I know you have no reason to like me anymore and i perfectly accept that i don't deserve any kind of reply or help from you and you have every reason to be angry with me, but i am going to ask you to accept my apology and i assure you my past actions will not continue and i promise to only make appropriate edits and no longer abuse you and the other users
I would really appreciate it if you could accept my apology and than help me with my queries and then we can start afresh:)
Thank you and Sorry 86.43.186.172 (talk) 22:11, 9 June 2011 (UTC) (Brianwazere)
- Hi Brian. To answer your question, I'm sorry I have absolutely no idea how long it takes as I've never known anyone to request an unblock via email before. Also, I don't know how they will reply. Good luck anyway, I hope if your unblock is successful, that you keep your promise and become a productive editor here. –AnemoneProjectors– 22:16, 9 June 2011 (UTC)
I promise i wont let myself down and i was also just wondering is there anyway you could allow me to request an unblock through my user page as it may not be as difficult as an email request, i have no problem writing a brand new appeal if i must:), thank you for accepting my apoligy:) 86.43.186.172 (talk) 22:23, 9 June 2011 (UTC)

Britains got talent series 5
Ok, i didnt realise the image had been deleted!! I think though that we need to find another image to put in here as all previous series have a picture of the winner. Colinmotox11 (talk) 11:44, 15 June 2011 (UTC)
- Well, that's only possible if someone takes a photo and releases it with a free licence. It's not about being consistent, it's about pictures being available. Usually, they don't become available until the person has made a public appearance. And we don't actually have one of Spelbound. –AnemoneProjectors– 12:28, 15 June 2011 (UTC)

- Yes Poppy doesn't need one, she's a two episode character (so far)! Fatboy's promos are from 2010 when the series 1 E20 characters were announced. Try to get one in an Ed Hardy top, if you know what that looks like. There are several on the E20 site. –AnemoneProjectors– 17:49, 13 June 2011 (UTC)

I only delete the EastEnders ones when you do a new upload because they don't get tagged. –AnemoneProjectors– 07:46, 16 June 2011 (UTC)

- We already have a picture showing Vanessa's clothes so we don't need another. And being a nice picture isn't a good reason to use non-free images. And no, we can't put it on Harry's either. I think you knew the answer to that one already :-) –AnemoneProjectors– 19:10, 18 June 2011 (UTC)

- Thanks. Well, we decided last year that the original artist wasn't necessary in the actual X Factor articles, as they're often disputed, or the version performed wasn't that of the original artist. And the same should apply to the contestant pages. And it did for Jedward, I was just reverting really. –AnemoneProjectors– 09:04, 20 June 2011 (UTC)

Eddie
See I know Eddie is your pet project and I thought I'd give you the interview from Soalife. You better use it! :P So he will be off screen for a while then I take it from the last question...
Soaplife, fortnight ending 24th june, issue 252, "Eddie's family secrets" by Sally Brockway on page 25.
How's Eddie coping with the ice-cold welcome Michael's dishing out? Eddie keeps reaching out to him, as a father does. Michael blames Eddie for his mother's death... She commited suicide when he was six years old. But atleast Alfie's happy to see his uncle.
Is Eddie a single man?
He's separated from his wife, so yes, I think he is. There's a spark between him and Carol. He starts off pushing her away but they get closer when he helps out with Liam. Carol thanks Eddie and he kisses her...
What sort of bloke is Eddie?
As a younger man he might have been a mirror image of Michael, but he's become a bit more philosophical. He's not as hot headed as Michael. He has a chequered past but he's not a bad guy.
You turned down Eastenders' first invitation to join the show...
Yes. They wanted me to play Honey's dad. I didn't do it because of a timing issue but there's much more texture and weight to Eddie's character. He's more interesting. The show's taken over my life now but I'm enjoying it.
You've topped the charts, acted on stage and screen and written your own work... Why go into a soap? It's something I've never done before. If I didn't respect Eastenders I wouldn't be in it. Even so it's been daunting. There are people who've been here for 20 years. It's like going to a new school.
Who's showing you the ropes? Jake Wood [Max] is my mentor but I've only seen him twice. His advice was 'When you get free time, learn your lines.' I'm full of respect for soap actors now as there's very little time for rehearsals.
Tell us about Eddie's sons Anthony and Tyler... He gets on very well with them. They're Michael's half-brothers. Only Tyler actor Tony Discipline has been filming so far and we're having a right laugh.
What's coming up for Eddie? I don't know yet but it's going to be a great adventure for me.
How long are you with the show for? Untill August when I go on tour with All The Fun Of The Fair. Then I'll have a chat with them to see what happens next. Things are pulling me out of Eastenders but emotionally I am here.

Doing It My Way/Ray Quinn (album)
Hi AnemoneProjectors. You might be right about the above page, though evidence was provided at the requested move on the talk page that it is properly titled Doing It My Way. I did some independent searches and it does appear that this is the proper title. But that's not really the issue. Whoever is correct, after a requested move is closed, I think you should start a discussion for the move back and not use administrator tools to undo another admin's action in closing and acting on a formal move request. Of course, you may not have noticed my edit summary pointing to the discussion, nor looked at the talk page, and so you may not have been aware of the reason for the move in the first place. I am assuming the latter but wanted to make sure it was clear this time around.--Fuhghettaboutit (talk) 23:32, 5 July 2011 (UTC)
- Sorry I wasn't aware of the move request. At the time, the page was moved about several times but the majority of Google searches I did showed the title to be Ray Quinn. Including official sources and online stores. Which is why I moved it back again. –AnemoneProjectors– 09:55, 6 July 2011 (UTC)

Eddie
See I know Eddie is your pet project and I thought I'd give you the interview from Soalife. You better use it! :P So he will be off screen for a while then I take it from the last question...
Soaplife, fortnight ending 24th june, issue 252, "Eddie's family secrets" by Sally Brockway on page 25.
How's Eddie coping with the ice-cold welcome Michael's dishing out? Eddie keeps reaching out to him, as a father does. Michael blames Eddie for his mother's death... She commited suicide when he was six years old. But atleast Alfie's happy to see his uncle.
Is Eddie a single man?
He's separated from his wife, so yes, I think he is. There's a spark between him and Carol. He starts off pushing her away but they get closer when he helps out with Liam. Carol thanks Eddie and he kisses her...
What sort of bloke is Eddie?
As a younger man he might have been a mirror image of Michael, but he's become a bit more philosophical. He's not as hot headed as Michael. He has a chequered past but he's not a bad guy.
You turned down Eastenders' first invitation to join the show...
Yes. They wanted me to play Honey's dad. I didn't do it because of a timing issue but there's much more texture and weight to Eddie's character. He's more interesting. The show's taken over my life now but I'm enjoying it.
You've topped the charts, acted on stage and screen and written your own work... Why go into a soap? It's something I've never done before. If I didn't respect Eastenders I wouldn't be in it. Even so it's been daunting. There are people who've been here for 20 years. It's like going to a new school.
Who's showing you the ropes? Jake Wood [Max] is my mentor but I've only seen him twice. His advice was 'When you get free time, learn your lines.' I'm full of respect for soap actors now as there's very little time for rehearsals.
Tell us about Eddie's sons Anthony and Tyler... He gets on very well with them. They're Michael's half-brothers. Only Tyler actor Tony Discipline has been filming so far and we're having a right laugh.
What's coming up for Eddie? I don't know yet but it's going to be a great adventure for me.
How long are you with the show for? Untill August when I go on tour with All The Fun Of The Fair. Then I'll have a chat with them to see what happens next. Things are pulling me out of Eastenders but emotionally I am here.

Ronan Parke & Cher Lloyd Deletion Nomination
I think you should nominate the Ronan Parke and Cher Lloyd articles for deletion via Afd to decide whether they are notable enough because it does seem as if they both meet the notability guidelines. 82.46.152.122 (talk) 14:55, 5 July 2011 (UTC)
- They're both only notable for one event until such time as an album or single charts or they do something else like Stacey Solomon did when she won I'm a Celebrity... and she didn't have an article until she won it, not even while she was on it. So for the time being, a list entry is sufficient for both of them. WP:BLP1E. –AnemoneProjectors– 09:57, 6 July 2011 (UTC)
- But wouldn't it work to see what other users think? An AfD will stop users undoing the redirects, as that'll make the final decision for now. 82.46.152.122 (talk) 18:34, 7 July 2011 (UTC)
- Also, other acts in the past like Hollie Steel have had articles even during the show and she came 6th place and her audition was nowhere near as popular as Ronan Parke's. Think about that. 82.46.152.122 (talk) 11:28, 9 July 2011 (UTC)
- That is, of course, an invalid argument. WP:OTHERSTUFF. –AnemoneProjectors– 14:52, 10 July 2011 (UTC)
Image Problem
Hello AP. There's something wrong here. Whenever I upload images of a different resolution ratio, it either gets stretched or squeezed. This happens to ALL my uploads. File:Naima Jeffery (1985).jpg is an example. Any ideas? ..George Sorby • Talk • Contribs .. 13:41, 7 July 2011 (UTC)
- Oh and it goes back to normal if I re-name the image. ..George Sorby • Talk • Contribs .. 13:41, 7 July 2011 (UTC)
- I don't know why, but it's not just you. There must be somewhere you can ask, as it may be an issue with the Wiki itself. –AnemoneProjectors– 13:43, 7 July 2011 (UTC)

Your GA nomination of The X Factor (UK series 7)
Hello, I just wanted to introduce myself and let you know I am glad to be reviewing the article The X Factor (UK series 7) you nominated for GA-status according to the criteria. This process may take up to 7 days. Feel free to contact me with any questions or comments you might have during this period. Puffin Let's talk! 13:32, 7 July 2011 (UTC)
Could you please stop reverting people's attempts to redirect Cher Lloyd-related articles to her personal article rather than the X Factor series page? As I explained in my edit summary, she has her own article, so I don't really understand what the motivation is here. Best, JonChappleTalk 10:07, 11 July 2011 (UTC)
- I've just glanced up your page a bit and it appears you believe she's not notable enough. If that's the case, you need to get her article deleted—it can't just sit there and have everything redirected away from it. JonChappleTalk 10:09, 11 July 2011 (UTC)

I dont think it is helpful to active contributers. As they already know what's going on, and inactive contributers are not active, so they likely dont care.GunGagdinMoan 22:50, 17 July 2011 (UTC)
- Exactly, like I said, everyone knows what's going on as we're such a small project anyway. You just have to watchlist the project page and its subpages to know what's going on. –AnemoneProjectors– 11:59, 18 July 2011 (UTC)
- Can I just say, to defend it and everything before you ALL change your minds, the newsletter isnt about 'what's going on' (GSorby,Gungadin and AP) it's a summary of all are achievements of the month. It dosnt realy have anything to major in it, just the cast changes of the month, and ends with an award, GA nominees, DYK's, and thats really it. I am most likely (I think Frickative told me this) do a section on articles which need expanding, as it is easier to sumamrize it all up in one page, rather than have it on all seperate pages. :) MayhemMario 15:26, 18 July 2011 (UTC)
- Well, by all means do it if you want, but maybe it should be posted somewhere else other than talk pages? It becomes quite cluttered on talk pages with templates and what not, and I get irritated by such space wasting things. Could you not have a subpage from the wikiproject to post it to? That way we can look at that if we want to. While I appluad you for being inventive, it wont be particularly useful for me. Just being honest, and I hope it doesnt cause offence. It's not that I dont appreciate what you are trying to do, and if other people want it delivered to them, then great.GunGagdinMoan 15:36, 18 July 2011 (UTC)

- lol what's going on?! I think the newsletters should be stored on subpages of WP:EE, in fact, it's supposed to go here Wikipedia:WikiProject EastEnders/Outreach every month. But as there was no point in having a newsletter, nobody created one. I still think there's no point, as the subpages give a summary of what's been promoted to GA, DYK, etc, recently. And the award is a bit silly too. But if you really want to create one, create it there. I don't mind receiving it if it's done that way, and then I will just remove it once I've read it. –AnemoneProjectors– 13:15, 19 July 2011 (UTC)

Ronan Parke
I do think he is notable now, with plenty of press coverage, a record deal, and plenty of appearances. I think with this kind of article, an Afd is better than just redirecting it, so i'd advice you to start an Afd. Emirates123 (talk) 15:38, 4 August 2011 (UTC)
- I don't think an AFD would go my way and I can't really be bothered arguing over it anymore so I'll just let the article stand. –AnemoneProjectors– 10:18, 5 August 2011 (UTC)
- Although it is still a redirect and it seems nobody has contested this for some time. But if you're going to do it then I won't stop you. –AnemoneProjectors– 10:27, 5 August 2011 (UTC)
A kitten for you!
Just testing the wikilove button I just found ;-)
Advice from Good Article contributor
I am trying to get this to Good Article status. It has a long way to go, but I was wondering what Good Articles I can use as a reference. I am annoyed that this article was tagged for notability at S&Man with so much content that there is available to use. Joe Chill (talk) 15:23, 11 August 2011 (UTC)
- I'm not really sure as I don't work on film-related articles. I can only suggest that you go through the list of GAs. –AnemoneProjectors– 10:36, 12 August 2011 (UTC)
Congratulations!
100px | New GA! |
The article The X Factor (UK series 7) you nominated fro GA status has passed. Well done! Puffin Let's talk! 13:44, 17 August 2011 (UTC) |
YES YES YES YES YES!!! Thank you :-) –AnemoneProjectors– 13:45, 17 August 2011 (UTC)
AP
I know you probably got no time at all atm to spare. Could you fly by File:WarrenFox.jpg and delete the previous as there is to many atm.RaintheOne BAM 13:27, 16 August 2011 (UTC)
- Done it but you can also tag it as "non-free reduced" and the old ones will eventually be deleted that way. –AnemoneProjectors– 13:37, 16 August 2011 (UTC)

Hey AP.. could you move James McKenna to Jimmy McKenna please. I've never understood why the title is James when he has been credited as Jimmy since he started at HO in 1996.RaintheOne BAM 02:24, 26 August 2011 (UTC)
- Done! I'll let you do anything else that needs doing. –AnemoneProjectors– 15:08, 26 August 2011 (UTC)
How about protecting List of EastEnders characters in light of all this IP activity.RaintheOne BAM 00:12, 1 September 2011 (UTC)
- You couldn't protect List of current Home and Away characters for a while could you? The layout keeps getting changed, content and sources are being removed, etc. - JuneGloom Talk 13:14, 1 September 2011 (UTC)
Re: EastEnders - is it worth it now? Not much point asking me at night time! WP:RFPP is better. Re: H&A - the message just appeared as I was replying re: EastEnders so I'll look into that. My time at the library is precious so probably best not to request such things of me while I only have limited access :-) –AnemoneProjectors– 13:16, 1 September 2011 (UTC)
- Apologies, you were the first admin I knew to be online. - JuneGloom Talk 13:19, 1 September 2011 (UTC)
- Only cos of twitter :D protected both for a week. –AnemoneProjectors– 13:20, 1 September 2011 (UTC)
Leona Lewis Discography
I don't get why you undid all my changes? Nearly every other discography has that outline... So I'm confused.. I can give you a number of featured list discographys that have that layout... took me forever to do aswell. :o( MusicFan94 (talk) 16:58, 25 August 2011 (UTC)
- Furthermore... I correctly sources and changed a number of false information.. So I'm really confused. I did a lot of editing and corrected a lot of info :/ ?? MusicFan94 (talk) 17:00, 25 August 2011 (UTC)
- For example, Lady Gaga discography, Kesha discography, Kelly Rowland discography, Hilary Duff discography, Sugababes discography, Rihanna discography, Spice Girls discography, Pussycat Dolls discography... to be honest, all recently updated discographys have THIS layout... look.. i'm sorry to bombard you with comments but i'm just trying to show that, not only you shouldn't have reverted the edits 'cause of this layout, but also 'cause i have correctly changed info. So please can you revert the edit? Or I will? :o) MusicFan94 (talk) 17:18, 25 August 2011 (UTC)
- For now, i have rv the edit.. just till you can talk again :o) MusicFan94 (talk) 14:22, 26 August 2011 (UTC)
- Why have you changed the edits again? I've said that you've also reverted false info. I don't get why, i've gave you a number of explanations, yer you leave me here, like im talking to a brick wall. It's like, just because you created the discog, you want it that way. Well, I've created a number of discogs, but i forgot the password to my old accounts. Please reply. I might try n get help to prove you wrong, tbh... please, do me a favour and reply..

Sorry, I didn't see this until just now. The layout is wrong, it should be as it was, to conform with WP:ACCESS but just do what you want. When I'm back full time, I'll sort it out properly. I didn't know there was false information and I'm sorry that I had to revert new additions to fix the layout but I did mention that in my edit summary. Anyway, do what you like. –AnemoneProjectors– 13:33, 28 August 2011 (UTC)
- Sorry that was harsh. But I won't revert again, I'll just fix as I see fit. Sorry. –AnemoneProjectors– 13:36, 28 August 2011 (UTC)
It's ok, no need to apologise :o) there was just false certifications ect and i sourced a lot of stuff, but ty.. MusicFan94 (talk) 15:51, 28 August 2011 (UTC)

"i think it read better before, also the actors' names should NEVER be removed!!! so don't do it"
If that comment was directed towards me, then I assure you, it was not intentional. I reverted the vandalism by an unregistered contributor, without noticing that I also inadvertently removed several names of the actors, which was my mistake but please control your temper in the future. As an admin, you should approach a situation or a problem in a more respectful manner rather than giving an immature tantrum. A simple "Please do not remove an actor's name." would have sufficed. Revan4000 (talk) 12:01, 29 August 2011 (UTC)
- I do apologise. Time is something I don't have much of so I can't really think about what I'm doing as much as I normally would. At the moment my internet access is very limited so I'm just tending to put the first thing I think of without thinking about what I'm actually saying!!! So yes I am sorry. I don't know if it was vandalism but I'm sure there were some good things in there. I though I was reverting new changes to an old one but if I was reverting a revert then I again am sorry about that! –AnemoneProjectors– 14:31, 30 August 2011 (UTC)
- The aforementioned contributor basically wrote an alternative story with Bradley alive instead of falling to his death from the Queen Vic and Becca (the girl who called the police on Bradley) stalking Stacey, which really belongs in fanfiction territory. Revan4000 (talk) 10:35, 31 August 2011 (UTC)
- Was I reverting to that? Oh god I didn't realise, I should have checked the history better. Sorry!! –AnemoneProjectors– 11:01, 31 August 2011 (UTC)
- It's okay, no hard feelings. --Revan4000 (talk) 01:21, 3 September 2011 (UTC)

Hey AP!
Might I suggest that you make yourself familiar with Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Theunknownnun/Archive.
Basically this is a banned user that seems to create numerous socks. The editor was banned for copyright violations and the socks generally upload copyrighted images to soap star BLPs. The most recent EastEnders ones I can remember them targeting are Maisie Smith and Lorna Fitzgerald. When Checkuser carried out a check for sleepers yesterday I also found out that Jacqueline Jossa's image had been uploaded to her page by one of the sleepers.
Because copyvios are quite serious on Wikipedia, I asked User:HJ Mitchell for his opinion on Jacqueline's image tonight just to get a second opinion and he's of the same opinion as me, that the image is a copyvio. I've looked on Google tonight and I can literally find that image all over the internet. I know it says it's released under a Commons licence but I'm seriously wondering if it's just been taken from another website and uploaded to Commons under a false certificate. HJ says he will investigate more later on and see if the user that uploaded it to Commons is the same user that put the image on Jossa's page.
Sighs.
Oh and when are you getting a new computer?! I had to get a new keyboard today, other one started to give up the ghost for some reason :(--5 albert square (talk) 00:26, 7 September 2011 (UTC)
- Thanks. I alreayd have that user's SPI page watchlisted but atm I'm only really looking at EastEnders and X Factor pages, instead of everything on my watchlist. I agree that the Jossa photo is probably copyvio, have thought this a long time. Also think the Polly Perkins picture is, as it was used by The Sun around the time she was announced as joining EastEnders. I don't know when I'll be back full time, I'm still saving up, it's really hard. I hope it's not too long. Was hoping to be back before the new E20 started, but at least there are omnibus episodes on BBC Three... maybe by Christmas!!! –AnemoneProjectors– 13:34, 7 September 2011 (UTC)
Question
Say a characters final scenes air one night. The characters body appears dead a few days later covered so you could only her hair and a hand, the actress and character are not credited. The actress says it wasn't her posing in the back of the boot. Would you use the credited or uncredited for a last app date?RaintheOne BAM 21:35, 14 September 2011 (UTC)
- I would use the last credited date - it's like Archie Mitchell's corpse vs Den Watts' hand being dug up. We counted Archie's corpse episodes but not Den's as it wasn't the actor. –AnemoneProjectors– 13:10, 15 September 2011 (UTC)
- Okay, thanks for that. Big help. =)RaintheOne BAM 14:01, 15 September 2011 (UTC)
Family Trees
Are you off hiatus yet? Or is it still ongoing? Arjoccolenty (talk) 17:33, 1 September 2011 (UTC)
- Still ongoing. I know the trees are out of date. Well, the Moon one is but it's not used in articles (yet), which others are? –AnemoneProjectors– 12:00, 2 September 2011 (UTC)
- The Beale family tree is that Ian and Jane are divorced, Maggie's maiden name is Medeemey, Sean Flaherty isn't dead, Eamonn and Brenda have 5 kids, Dora Beale married a husband, Ronnie Beale is deceased and married a woman name Gail. Michelle Fowler married a man named Tim, David and Lorraine Foster are divorced, Carol was Branning and not Jackson when they conceived Bianca and Albert has an aunt named Dolly. Arjoccolenty (talk) 16:51, 2 September 2011 (UTC)
- Right, that's a lot. Maggie's maiden name is unknown but she should have legally taken her father's name not her mother's. Sean Flaherty isn't dead so where is he? How do you know this? Who were Eamonn and Brenda's other children? Do I want to add people whose names we don't know if they're not really important? Carol's never been known as Branning so I'm against putting that. This isn't real life, so it's hard to know what names to use - common names or what they were at the time. Anyway, nothing I can do about it at the moment. –AnemoneProjectors– 13:03, 3 September 2011 (UTC)
- Maggie's article says that her maiden name was Medeemey. Last time Sean Flaherty was seen was in Ireland when the deceased Mark groined him. He's still in Ireland. Eamonn's children are Eamonn, Carl, Declan, Kylie and Colette. The section marked family members as well as all of their profiles has this information.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Arjoccolenty (talk • contribs)
- Sorry to butt in, but when you get more time on here we should probably have a discussion about all things relating to the Hugh Miller novels in the articles. I sort of feel they arent canon and should be removed.GunGagdinMoan 14:20, 3 September 2011 (UTC)
- I'm kind of inclined to agree with you. Although I think an "other media" or "other appearances" section might be helpful for these books in the character articles, we would have to say "the canonicity of the novels is unknown", and assume that it's non-canon, and not use any details for family trees, etc. But the Flaherty stuff I can change, when I'm able to. Not sure how long it's going to be! And I may have to start from scratch (though that's not going to be too hard). –AnemoneProjectors– 10:22, 5 September 2011 (UTC)
- Do you have an estimate of when they will be done or is it up in the air. 74.97.17.150 (talk) 16:40, 17 September 2011 (UTC)
- I don't know how long it will be until I have a new computer. Anyone is welcome to update the family trees, as long as they're done neatly :-) –AnemoneProjectors– 11:47, 19 September 2011 (UTC)

Craig
Do we know for sure that Maggie is Craig's mother (and Michael's full-brother?) 74.97.17.150 (talk) 17:47, 16 September 2011 (UTC)
- Craig is Michael's full brother, I think it was mentioned in Inside Soap or Digital Spy. I'll try and find it. - JuneGloom Talk 18:28, 16 September 2011 (UTC)
- Nevermind. I found it. "Eddie takes Michael to a care home and when they get inside Eddie introduces Michael to a man with down syndrome. His name is Craig Moon, and Eddie explains that Craig is Micheal’s brother. Michael cannot believe he has another half brother and then he is even more stunned when Eddie tells him that they are actually ‘full brothers’." this was from eastendersspoilers.co.uk. 74.97.17.150 (talk) 18:38, 16 September 2011 (UTC)
- Ah, well done. It was also just confirmed by Eddie himself. :) - JuneGloom Talk 19:03, 16 September 2011 (UTC)

Please do not revert changes made by OTRS agents in their official capacity when you're explicitly asked not to. We never make controversial edits and "hide" them behind the OTRS seal. This is a purely factual matter; if you have any doubts about its veracity, you should contact an administrator with OTRS access. Again, you are asked not to make any changes to this edit, Thank you! Asav | Talk (Member of the OTRS Volunteer Response Team) 19:29, 16 September 2011 (UTC)
- I replied at User talk:GSorby after I realised it was OTRS I have reverted. There was nothing to say I was reverting OTRS until I checked the edit history. Also, it was still unverified and I feel at any time in the future someone could tag it as such so surely it's better to remove it altogether? –AnemoneProjectors– 13:51, 17 September 2011 (UTC)

Big Brother 2011
Hi, just wondering if you think the weekly summary section on Big Brother 2011 (UK) is too long and needs to be cut down? --MSalmon (talk) 12:27, 19 September 2011 (UTC)
- It could probably do with being cut down. Also, the note with the yellow square - wouldn't that be better as a "key" above the table? I dunno, I don't think BB articles have used a key like that but The X Factor articles always do... –AnemoneProjectors– 12:30, 19 September 2011 (UTC)

Divorce
Are Zainab and Masood divorced? Islam law says that have to say it three times, which Masood did, but Syed needs to track Amira down for a divorce. So are they divorced or not? Arjoccolenty (talk) 16:11, 27 September 2011 (UTC)
- (Sorry to butt in), people are only legally divorced when they file for one and it's successful. GSorby – Ping! 10:17, 28 September 2011 (UTC)
- According to Muslim tradition, they are, but Syed did say when someone said "just say 'I divorce you' three times, that they would still be legally married and would still have to go through courts or whatever. So going by that, Zainab and Masood are currently married. (Also, Syed would have to find Amira because he would have to say the words to her face anyway.) –AnemoneProjectors– 13:24, 28 September 2011 (UTC)

X Factor 2011
Hi, an IP user keeps putting back the judges houses performance tables. Please help. --MSalmon (talk) 21:28, 4 October 2011 (UTC)
- The only way I can help is with page protection. In fact that's probably the best way to deal with it. I'll do that now. I can't do a lot else with only an hour's internet access per day! –AnemoneProjectors– 11:18, 5 October 2011 (UTC)

Popstars: The Rivals
Hi mate, I have been developing the Popstars: The Rivals article to try and bring it up to date with The X Factor ones. DO you want to check it out and make any tweeks. I've added a results table but do not have finishing positions or voting percentages for each week. I've also made a template article for List of Popstars: The Rivals finalists which I will develop. 03md 14:48, 16 October 2011 (UTC)
- I don't really have time to look over the article in detail but it looks pretty good from what I can see just looking it over briefly. I didn't watch the series though so if you're missing details I wouldn't be able to help. But yeah, it looks quite good! –AnemoneProjectors– 10:52, 17 October 2011 (UTC)
Quick Q.
Hi! Can you look at the newest message on GSorbys page?!, its a favour from me, just wondering if GSorby says no maybe you could do it?

Oh, do you remember anything about Tanyas dad, william, like D.O.B, date of death, occupation?. Thanks a lot!!!! :) MayhemMario 13:59, 24 October 2011 (UTC)
- I would love to know the answer but I don't have time to do that right now. Perhaps if GS won't do it, someone like Raintheone, JuneGloom, 5 albert square or Frickative would do it. –AnemoneProjectors– 14:11, 24 October 2011 (UTC)

Hi AnemoneProjectors, in responce to your comment on Roxy Mitchell's page she was the Landlady of the flat above Booty where Stevie Dickinson was residing in Series 2 of E20.

Dancing with the Stars (U.S. season 12)
Hi, I was just wondering what your view is on this http://en.wiki.x.io/wiki/Talk:Dancing_with_the_Stars_%28U.S._season_12%29#NOTSTATS.2FVERIFY. Thanks. --MSalmon (talk) 12:07, 7 November 2011 (UTC)
- I don't really have the time to look into it :( –AnemoneProjectors– 13:43, 7 November 2011 (UTC)
- Ok thanks anyway --MSalmon (talk) 14:14, 7 November 2011 (UTC)
- Though I have briefly looked and I think I know to what you refer. I kind of agree though it looks like useful information. Not sure. Not being a fan of a similar show in the UK, I don't really look at the article for it, so it's hard for me to say how these should things go on Wiki. –AnemoneProjectors– 14:44, 7 November 2011 (UTC)
- Sorry, just wanted your opinion on whether this http://en.wiki.x.io/wiki/Dancing_with_the_Stars_%28U.S._season_13%29#Call-Out_Order should be included or not? --MSalmon (talk) 22:49, 11 November 2011 (UTC)
- My opinion is that it is not necessary to list the order the contestants were announced. We don't do this for The X Factor because it doesn't affect the result in any way. Also, I went blind looking at it ;) –AnemoneProjectors– 11:48, 14 November 2011 (UTC)
- Every time I keep removing it, it keeps coming back --MSalmon (talk) 14:37, 16 November 2011 (UTC)
- I've left a comment on the talk. See if that helps! –AnemoneProjectors– 14:40, 16 November 2011 (UTC)
- Ok thanks, and one more thing on Season 12 a user keeps removing bulk of information incl. scoring chart, weekly scores (but not on any other season) --MSalmon (talk) 14:43, 16 November 2011 (UTC)
- Well that stuff is needed. How many times has it happened. Maybe semi-protection is needed. –AnemoneProjectors– 14:50, 16 November 2011 (UTC)
- Quite a lot, but Semi Protection won't do as it is a registered user that is removing it. --MSalmon (talk) 14:53, 16 November 2011 (UTC)
- Would the three-revert rule apply? If they are making many reverts in a 24-hour period, you can warn them about the three-revert rule, and then they can be blocked. –AnemoneProjectors– 14:54, 16 November 2011 (UTC)

DOB's of X-Factor competitors
Hi Anemone, I notice you've taken up the cause of getting people to cite their sources of X-factor competitors DOB's. Well done, I totally agree. It seems to be getting out of control this year. I notice last year the issue was raised and generally verifiability was adherred to.
I removed the uncited DOB's a few weeks (maybe days) ago. This was on the basis of WP:BLPPRIVACY policy. Do you think it would be better to remove the uncited DOB's, leaving only the year of birth if necessary? DOB's will very rapidly spread into the public domain if they are left on Wikipedia for too long. I'm not a member of the X-Factor Project (or BLP); I just have a big issue with (anonymous) editors using dubious means/original research to uncover private facts about Z-list celebrities :) Sionk (talk) 16:29, 22 November 2011 (UTC)
- Well, they've been removed now. I just found it easier to tag them than remove them, as I don't have a lot of time right now. Their ages are known, which is what was there before. I would rather have the ages than anything else, unless it's known. The birth date would replace the age, I guess. –AnemoneProjectors– 16:31, 22 November 2011 (UTC)
File:The X Factor world map.png/X-factor
I have been speaking to some people and we reached a Consensus on Talk:The X Factor (TV series) that the UK version was not a joint version as neither ITV or TV 3 call it a joint version so I was wondering if it was possible to have File:The X Factor world map.png updated to reflect that. C. 22468 (talk) 16:31, 25 November 2011 (UTC)
- Oh yes. Although I only have access at the library at the moment, I can certainly do this. –AnemoneProjectors– 13:26, 28 November 2011 (UTC)
More inconsistencies on Eastenders
The birth order of the Branning children was April, Carol, Derek, Suzie, Max and Jack. But now they are saying that DEREK is the oldest child. Also, Cora said she only had two kids and not three kids. So Debs is not their sister apparently. What do you make of these changes? Arjoccolenty (talk) 13:19, 26 November 2011 (UTC)
- I think Debs should go as I have no idea where she came from and even if she was mentioned, she's now been deleted. As for the Brannings, well I was never sure how we knew the order of the children, so I'd go with Derek, April, Carol, Suzie, Max, Jack, I guess. –AnemoneProjectors– 13:20, 28 November 2011 (UTC)
- One episode in Eastenders had Tanya threatening to send her brats to their "auntie Debs". I think that was where it came from. Also, I only have a problem with it because it was said that Jim only married Reenie because she was pregnant with APRIL. Unless Derek was illegitamite and Jim stepped up so that he wouldn't have to out-of-wedlock kids. Which in the 1960s would have been frowned upon majorly. Arjoccolenty (talk) 01:47, 30 November 2011 (UTC)
- Well, we've had inconsistencies in family trees before. I think we should go with the most current information, which is Cora has two children (Debs could be Tanya's aunt?) and Derek is the eldest of the Branning siblings. –AnemoneProjectors– 11:58, 30 November 2011 (UTC)
- Derek being the illegitamite oldest Branning and Debs most likely being Cora or Bill's sister works. Arjoccolenty (talk) 16:20, 30 November 2011 (UTC)

Infoboxes
Hi, I was just wondering how we should list presenters/judges in infoboxes? --MSalmon (talk) 11:34, 3 December 2011 (UTC)
- Erm, as we already do? Are you talking about something other than The X Factor? –AnemoneProjectors– 13:29, 5 December 2011 (UTC)
- Well any series, just wondering if there is any order they need to be in --MSalmon (talk) 16:17, 5 December 2011 (UTC)
- Hmm, well I kind of feel that in some cases, like The X Factor, they could be listed in order of "seniority", though in the past we have gone with the order they're announced in at the start of the show. Sometimes I just think alphabetical by last name would be more encyclopaedic. I guess it's up to the editors of each article to decide. –AnemoneProjectors– 14:09, 6 December 2011 (UTC)
