advice?

Hey Satyr, I know you saw Leah's post about BeBe K'Roche, since you gave her the commons link. <bok bok! Ummm... anyway> I think her idea about userfying it seems reasonable, but I'd like another opinion. What do you think? Aleta ^Sing 02:41, 1 April 2008 (UTC)

I suspect userfying would be fine, though I'm not sure it needs to be. It asserts notability and has one semi-RS on it. With a tiny bit of work it could be a "Start"-class article. My fear about userfying is that Poetiik might be a one-off editor - sie only made three edits while here, this being one of them. If the article is userfied and sie doesn't come back, it will languish in userspace. -- SatyrTN (talk / contribs) 05:29, 1 April 2008 (UTC)

You make good points. I'll leave it in the mainspace. I found one other issue of the same newsletter to cite. There doesn't seem to be a lot else to use for sourcing. It does sound like maybe it should be notable, but I'm not finding much. Oh well, thanks for looking at it! Aleta ^Sing 16:23, 1 April 2008 (UTC)

WP:AUS tagging

Hi there Satyr, WP:AUS is now waiting for you at User:Moondyne/AU categories. The false positives and dupes have been removed and {{WP Australia}} is the relevant template. If the article is already tagged as a FA and GA, then please set "|class=FA" also. Thanks again, Blnguyen (vote in the photo straw poll) 08:27, 13 March 2008 (UTC)

Hi, Blnguyen! I see that you, Moondyne, and Dihydrogen worked on the list - was there discussion with the project someplace? I was unable to find it. Thanks! -- SatyrTN (talk / contribs) 13:44, 13 March 2008 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Australian_Wikipedians'_notice_board/Archive_28#Australia_related_article_growth is a bit. I could bring it up again if necessary. There is also some chat on Moondyne's current page so at least a fourth Australian agrees with it. Blnguyen (vote in the photo straw poll) 22:59, 13 March 2008 (UTC)

If you don't mind, post a quick note? Just to make sure no other bots are doing the same thing, and to give people one last chance to review the cats :) Many thanks! -- SatyrTN (talk / contribs) 00:57, 14 March 2008 (UTC)

Looks good. Definitely no other bots, otherwise we wouldn't have been looking about so long....Blnguyen (vote in the photo straw poll) 03:22, 14 March 2008 (UTC)

I think we have a consensus now. Blnguyen (vote in the photo straw poll) 00:08, 17 March 2008 (UTC)

Hi, Blnguyen! I did 100 categories last night, and I'm doing 500 tonight. I'm sorta easing into it because this is a *huge* job - 4,000 categories is a bit! In any case, do let me know if the project gets any notices, complaints, or otherwise due to the bot. Thanks! -- SatyrTN (talk / contribs) 05:08, 18 March 2008 (UTC)

It's not picking up any articles! Blnguyen (vote in the photo straw poll) 02:24, 20 March 2008 (UTC)

Is it fixed? Blnguyen (vote in the photo straw poll) 03:56, 25 March 2008 (UTC)

Seems to be running just fine now. Guess the API got itself together :) -- SatyrTN (talk / contribs) 04:15, 25 March 2008 (UTC)

It's jammed at the moment, Blnguyen (vote in the photo straw poll) 05:30, 25 March 2008 (UTC)

I have it programmed to stop if anyone leaves a message on its talk page. Just in case it hits an icy patch and runs away. In any case, I replied to Hesperian and nudged the bot into continuing :) -- SatyrTN (talk / contribs) 06:13, 25 March 2008 (UTC)

Can we fire up the next round please? Blnguyen (bananabucket) 01:31, 26 March 2008 (UTC)

The current run was quick....so the bot is waiting for its master to allocate some more work :). Thanks for hte VN run yesterday. Blnguyen (bananabucket) 00:56, 3 April 2008 (UTC)

Bisexual TV shows

The L Word is a lesbian show, but it does have major bisexual characters, as does Torchwood. I'm pretty sure most of the first season of the L Word is dealing with Jenny's bisexuality. Alice's bisexuality is kind of important to her relationships too. The catagory I've made is bisexuality-related tv series. I'd say Torchwood, with all it's bisexuality, is pretty bisexuality related. Even if it's not the central theme. The show has an lgbt category, and would you argue that that's not important to the show either? The producer Russel T Davies stresses the importance of the show as a drama before fantasy, just as with Doctor Who. Bob & Rose is a mini series that revolves entirely around the issue of a Bob's bisexuality. So does Portrait of a Marriage. It's the whole theme of A Shot at Love with Tila Tequila. I understand that there aren't a lot of shows where bisexuality is an fairly frequent issue, but I argue that definitely with these shows, it is. Enough so that they are 'bisexuality-related'. Also, you said, "Even Torchwood, where all the characters are bisexual, it's not a central issue to the show." I'm not sure what you mean by that. Does it not count because they don't talk about it? Or they're not oppressed for it? I mean, it's a fairly important part of Jack's life, and it's definitely an important part of Ianto's drama in the show. It's pretty blatantly shown that traditionally, members of Torchwood aren't monosexual, and that's a fairly significant portion of the drama. Without it, a lot of things would be different in this show. Andral (talk) 03:18, 1 April 2008 (UTC)

I understand that bisexuality is present on a lot of the shows - let's take Torchwood, since it's the only one of the lot that I've seen :) So yes, all the characters are bisexual. And being bisexual is part of the characters. But it isn't important to the series. They don't talk about being bisexual. They don't have to come out to their parents as bisexual. I don't even think the word bisexual has been uttered. So actually, I would argue that it's not important to the show. Would you categorize the show with "Category:Gambling-related television series? They gamble with their lives almost constantly. And for The L Word - yes, some of the characters are bisexual, but the series is lesbian-related, right? I guess what I'm getting at is that bisexuality may be significant to a character or set of characters; it may even be a significant part of some episodes, but is it central to the series, which is what the cat is for. And given that question, is it a common enough theme - or even "notable" enough - to warrant its own cat? -- SatyrTN (talk / contribs) 05:42, 1 April 2008 (UTC)

Obviously I think it is. So if you want to nominate it for deletion, that's up to you. But I don't think your arguments are particularly valid. Just because the characters sexuality isn't socially problematic, doesn't mean it's not important to their development. The show is catagorised as a drama, meaning the dramatic elements, not just the sci fi, are important. Would the fact that they're all bisexual only matter if someone said "Hey guys, we're all bisexual!"?Andral (talk) 19:55, 1 April 2008 (UTC)

You're totally missing my point. The category is "Bisexuality-related television series". Can you show me in the description of the series how it is "bisexuality-related"? I've already agreed that several/all of the characters are bi/omni sexual, but I think you'd be hard-pressed to find any source at all that says the series is bisexuality-related. -- SatyrTN (talk / contribs) 22:13, 1 April 2008 (UTC)

OK, so whether or not some or all of the regular stars are bisexual, it's not bisexuality related unless somewhere says it's a bisexual show? I can only come up with stuff like Russel T Davies saying all characters' sexualities are intended to remain fluid, but that's even quoted on the Torchwood page (or the themes in torchwood page). I mean otherwise all you can get is stuff like this http://www.biresource.org/717, http://www.johnbarrowman.com/outabout/press/2006/GT102006.html, http://www.afterelton.com/TV/2007/9/torchwood . So if that's not enough for you, I don't know how to convince you. But I still don't think that excludes the show from this category.

You know we should probably be having this discussion on the Torchwood discussion, because I really don't believe you're going to convince me, and it'll ultimately come down to what everyone else thinks. Andral (talk) 13:58, 2 April 2008 (UTC)

It's alright. I understand that the category may be "too soon" or not large enough, but I chose the shows I did for very specific reasons, over many other shows featuring bisexuality. These shows majorly feature bisexuality. There are a lot of films and shows that feature homosexual relations that are in the lgbt category that don't mention homosexuality either. Come to think of it, I think the word 'gay' has only appeared in Torchwood twice in two seasons, and both times been made obviously incorrect. Andral (talk) 16:32, 2 April 2008 (UTC)

WP:VIET

Hi there. Your bot seemed to forget last Wednesday's run (Wiki time). Thanks, Blnguyen (bananabucket) 02:13, 2 April 2008 (UTC)

User account, donation of copyrighted material, and re-deletion of article

SatyrTN,

Please find the user page of ITU-T clarified, with a donation of copyrighted material. Two questions; where can ‘Someone from Wikipedia’ (as written in DCP) be notified about the donation, and after this is done, how can the ‘permission group’ be contacted for re-deletion of the article on Malcolm Johnson (Director)?

16:54, 2 April 2008 (UTC), ITU-T

Hi, ITU-T! I'm not quite sure... I've left a message at Wikipedia talk:Donating copyrighted materials. WP:COPYREQ says the email address is permissions-en AT wikimedia DOT org - I would email them for more information. -- SatyrTN (talk / contribs) 18:48, 2 April 2008 (UTC)

Haha, oh dear

I found your userboxes very, very funny, especially the conflicting 'I am accused of being a homophobe'/'I identify as gay' ones. Hats off for your comedy. αѕєηιηє ^t/_c

Unexplained removal of talkheader by bot

It might not have been your intention, but your recent edit removed content from Talk:English language. When removing text, please specify a reason in the edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the text has been restored, as you can see from the page history. —teb728 t c 22:46, 2 April 2008 (UTC)

Hm. The bot is programmed to recognize and keep {{talkheader}}s - I don't know why it was removed. I'll take a look and see what's wrong. Thanks for letting me know =D -- SatyrTN (talk / contribs) 00:53, 3 April 2008 (UTC)

SatyrBot Error?

For some reason, SatyrBot has added the WikiProject:Australia banner to Talk:The Fly (U2 song) and Talk:The Saints Are Coming, two songs which - to my knowledge - have little or nothing to do with Australia. Is this an error by the bot? MelicansMatkin (talk) 05:10, 3 April 2008 (UTC)

Hi, MelicansMatkin! Both were number one singles in Australia. The bot is going through User:Moondyne/AU categories - a list of categories the project developed. I'm not totally convinced all the articles in Category:Number-one singles in Australia should necessarily be part of the project, but you could leave a message with the project if you disagree. Thanks for letting me know! -- SatyrTN (talk / contribs) 06:02, 3 April 2008 (UTC)

I removed WP Australia from those two articles. I agree that it was a mistake to tag these types of articles with the Australian project template. We're working on fixing this now. Apologies. —Moondyne click! 06:20, 3 April 2008 (UTC)

I'm removing the banner from "Bring Me to Life" as well. Simply being a #1 single in a country is an extraordinarily thin reason for adding a project banner. Also note that this edit damaged the code (apparently) in its attempt to handle the WikiProjectBannerShell implementation, and removed {{TalkHeader}} in the process. Was that last part intentional? — Huntster (t • @ • c) 08:10, 3 April 2008 (UTC)

Thanks, Huntster. The bot is supposed to recognize {{talkheader}} and not remove it. I need to do some testing to figure out what's wrong with that. Thanks for pointing it out. -- SatyrTN (talk / contribs) 13:53, 3 April 2008 (UTC)

Uh, I hope your bot was not taking a "short break" because I insulted it. I didn't realise it had feelings, or I wouldn't have sledged it so. Hesperian 14:02, 3 April 2008 (UTC)

Well, it is rude to alter a bot page - especially when it says right at the top "Please do not remove or change any information unless you know what you're doing." =D

But it's actually taking a break because I'm traveling for a couple days, and I need to fix the "talkheader" issue that has annoyed several people :) So no worries! =D -- SatyrTN (talk / contribs) 14:04, 3 April 2008 (UTC)

Cool. I was running a script on the Flora of Australia category subtree, and one of the last things it did was list all the categories that appear on any of the articles in the subtree. Since that page was tagged into all those categories, and some of them were in my subtree, all those other categories got added to my list, and I was left wondering "WTF? Which plant article is also a Men at Work album?" Hesperian 00:21, 4 April 2008 (UTC)

Thanks - that made me giggle =D -- SatyrTN (talk / contribs) 02:17, 4 April 2008 (UTC)

Kentucky Fairness Alliance NPOV Question

Hi! I was wanting to get your opinion on a section of the Kentucky Fairness Alliance article. The section discussing disputes with the Kentucky Equality federation seems to me to be very POV, and as much as I would personally like to delete it, some of the statements made in that section are factual. What are your thoughts on ways to fix that section, or should the section jsut be deleted? --Antcjone (talk) 21:59, 3 April 2008 (UTC)

I'm not fond of much of that article. I dealt with it a little, but the whole thing needs some TLC. Perhaps take out the person's name, and maybe the quote? That would leave the factual info while not pointing fingers. Just my $.02 :) -- SatyrTN (talk / contribs) 22:03, 3 April 2008 (UTC)

I'm going to spend some time on it tomorrow and try and give it a little rehab. Thanks for your input!! --Antcjone (talk) 00:48, 4 April 2008 (UTC)

Of course

My apologies I was removing deleted categories for WP:CfD, and I realized that those categories were re-added by the users and there is apparently no policy on re-adding deleted categories, so I stopped when I read that. Again, so sorry for any inconvenience. As for the XHTML-ing, I do that automatically in article namespace, and it was a holdover. Prior to your message on my talk, I have also removed that rule from AWB. Thanks so much for your note. -Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 03:50, 4 April 2008 (UTC)

Carolena Nericcio

Hello. She invented an entire style of dance that is now performed all over the world by hundreds of dancers, what is not notable about that? And she has already been written about in several other wiki articles (as being the person that founded the particular style of dance) If users have written articles about dancers who used to be students of Carolena's and are now famous dancers themselves, then surely Carolena is notable as well? You may not have heard of her if you are not a belly dancer but there is not a belly dancer on the planet who has not heard of her. Please review this subject again, Thanks (please reply on my page, cheers) ChaosBaby (talk) 02:40, 1 April 2008 (UTC)

All the info I added here ---->>>> http://en.wiki.x.io/wiki/User:ChaosBaby/Carolena_Nericcio <<<-----is from either http://www.fcbd.com/ or other bellydance sources. I have added all the references and websites on to the above link. Is that not enough info?

RE:WP:PACKERS

You told me to tell you when I would like to have the bot run per my request here. Well I'm ready for it! Thanks a whole bunch. I also had a question on whether or not you could also have your bot do another request, this being just a one-time request. I was wondering if you would be able to search Category:Green Bay Packers players and Category:Green Bay Packers coaches and make a list of all the articles missing an Infobox. I figured that you could just search the articles for the string "Infobox" and any articles that miss it could be placed on an appropriate sub-page (Wikipedia:WikiProject Green Bay Packers/Infobox needed). Then the project could go and place the appropriate infobox on the articles. Well let me know if this is possible and if you would be interested. Thanks a million again for your help. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk ♦ contribs) 07:15, 30 March 2008 (UTC)

Hi, Gonzo! I'm a little behind at the moment. The bot is a little over halfway through a 4000 category job for WP:Australia, and I have a WP:Opera job after that.

William Jarvis, Weathersfield

Hello again, my friend. Many thanks for all your help. I have one small niggling question that I'd like to run by you if you don't mind. I made a contribution to an entry on Weathersfield, Vermont, in the 'notable people' section. A fellow deleted the entry (although he left my contribution about it on the history section intact), and basically challenged the fact that the individual was important by noting that the person didn't have a wikipedia page. Well, my experience is that just because someone doesn't have a page on wikipedia doesn't mean they're not important. :-) In any case, by and large I've found people here very courteous about this sort of thing. Before I knew what I was doing, I made an entry on the Fox Talbot, the inventor of photography. Rather than delete it outright, a person pleasantly asked me to substantiate what I'd posted. Thanks to you, by then I knew how to footnote. I went back in and added the appropriate footnotes, and the entry stands as I wrote it. My (longwinded) point is that it would be nice if before people simply delete, they at least run it by you and give you a shot at authenticating what one has written. Is that too much to expect? Just curious..... Again, many thanks for all your help.MarmadukePercy (talk) 21:52, 8 April 2008 (UTC)

I have subsequently fleshed out a great deal of the history on William Jarvis but have not yet written a full-scale page on him. However, I just received this message from the individual I mentioned earlier: "I've realised that I missed the thing about how any person recognised as of great significance in his/her field (i.e. sheep ranching in the USA) is considered notable." I think this is getting out-of-hand. Is there an appeal to a higher authority on wikipedia?MarmadukePercy (talk) 00:41, 10 April 2008 (UTC)

Incidentally, this person went ahead and created a stub entry on William Jarvis, although it was pretty clear from discussion that it was I who was interested in Jarvis and probably knew a bit more about him. Is there such a thing as wikipedia etiquette?MarmadukePercy (talk) 21:20, 10 April 2008 (UTC)

You can help expand that article. Anyone can create an article, so it's not really about etiquette. AgnosticPreachersKid (talk) 21:22, 10 April 2008 (UTC)

Okay, thank you. I suppose I figured that having argued with this individual over the importance of Jarvis, it might stand to reason that he would let me know he was going to go ahead and write the piece. Oh well. So much for manners. I will go ahead and contribute to it, now that it's done. Have a good day.MarmadukePercy (talk) 21:41, 10 April 2008 (UTC) Yes, now that I think it over, I consider that sort of behavior rude, arrogant and discourteous. Having argued ad infinitum with someone over the lack of 'notability' of an individual, then to turn right around and post an article without even having the courtesy to let the person know you were going to do it.... Well, I suppose one can do that, but it doesn't exactly endear one to fellow wikipedians, which is pretty obvious reading that individual's talk page. Thanks again for your help.MarmadukePercy (talk) 21:59, 10 April 2008 (UTC)

One minor question

Just wondering how one approaches the wikipedia commons for a clarification. I posted two photos that were sent to me by a family member, personally taken by her, with express permission for me to use them in whatever way I saw fit. I posted both here (one of a family house, the other of a tombstone). But it appears that wikipedia commons is denying me a right to use them (or at least a 'bot' is). I wonder if there's a way to straighten this out. I know the person who sent them to me and she has no objection to their being used. Many thanks and take care.MarmadukePercy (talk) 16:46, 10 April 2008 (UTC)

In the same vein, I wondered what the wikipedia policy is on using photos from flickr? I recall having read something about it but now can't recall. Thanks!MarmadukePercy (talk) 01:13, 12 April 2008 (UTC)

I can't figure out the wikipedia commons for the life of me. I uploaded the two files to the commons, and then posted them. I have posted a couple of different times to the 'bot' who seems to have me blocked (or is it an actual user?). No answer. And now wikipedia commons prevents me from communicating to anyone, claiming that I uploaded two images without permission. I do note that the 'bot' or actual human being notes on its web page that it has a 'basic understanding' of English. Hmmm.... What gives? Thanks! MarmadukePercy (talk) 01:36, 13 April 2008 (UTC)

As I didn't hear back from you, I was unsure how to proceed on this. I posted repeatedly to the Commons for a clarification. There was never one forthcoming. Tonight they deleted my two photos. Do other folks find it frustrating to use the Commons? I sure do. Thanks. MarmadukePercy (talk) 06:27, 18 April 2008 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (Image:Aquafina logo.png)

Thanks for uploading Image:Aquafina logo.png. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box.

Your bot is presently being discussed at WT:BAG, specifically here. Please, consider discussing the matter there. SQL^{Query me!} 05:00, 21 April 2008 (UTC)

Thanks. I've responded there. I'm not sure when I'll make corrections to the bot, but it won't be running until I get it fixed. -- SatyrTN (talk / contribs) 06:29, 22 April 2008 (UTC)

Page for deletion on the french wikipedia

Hi, I just sent you a notice on your talk page over there because an LGBT article is filed for deletion, and I don't think it should be deleted. Maybe you can help by stating your opinion. Thiste (talk) 14:47, 21 April 2008 (UTC)

Since you and your bot are on holiday (so to speak)...

Is it OK if I manually empty this page: Wikipedia:WikiProject LGBT studies/SatyrBot maintenance/Deletion possibilities? Aleta ^Sing 15:58, 24 April 2008 (UTC)

Sure :) -- SatyrTN (talk / contribs) 17:55, 25 April 2008 (UTC)

Masonic era

I see that you deleted Masonic era with "G12: Blatant copyright infringement: http://www.phoenixmasonry.org/mackeys_encyclopedia/c.htm)". Could you restore it? It was based on the work of Albert Mackey who died in 1881. Please leave a note in my Talk page when you answer. --Error (talk) 22:21, 28 April 2008 (UTC)

Ann Scott page

Can I ask you for help on the Ann Scott page (french writer) as I noticed you updated it once or twice ? I'm updating it with new relevant changes and a another user is undoing everything all the time. He goes by the name of Olaf150 (which is my name reversed, and I don't know why he's doing that) and also by different London ip's. He's undoing links I add, new lay outs for the bibliography, new translation of french citations that were not properly translated, and so on. He's coming after me every time I change something, and as I'm not an administrator, I can't block him. I don't know what's wrong with him, as he never explains his own changes. What can I do ? Thank you in advance for your help. Olaf750 (talk) 15:25, 5 May 2008 (UTC)

Another Illinois Query

I was wondering, whenever you get back I was hoping you could run your bot through all the Illinois articles, and possibly locate all the ones that have pictures in them? Is something like this possible? I am looking for those that I have missed, that need tagging or moving to Commons. I don't know when you will be back, but if you could just respond to my talk page so I know you might be around, I would really appreciate it. I took a wikibreak myself and I need to take a look at that other list of stuff from the last run. Thanks again for your help in the past!--Kranar drogin (talk) 03:28, 7 May 2008 (UTC)

Image copyright problem with Image:Amherst Town Seal.png

Thanks for uploading Image:Amherst Town Seal.png. You've indicated that the image is being used under a claim of fair use, but you have not provided an adequate explanation for why it meets Wikipedia's requirements for such images. In particular, for each page the image is used on, the image must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Can you please check

• That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's escription page for each article the image is used in.
• That every article it is used on is linked to from its description page.

The following images also have this problem:

• Image:Deerfield Town Seal.png
• Image:Chichester Town Seal.png
• Image:Charlestown Town Seal.png
• Image:Bristol-Town-Seal.gif
• Image:Bradford Town Seal.png
• Image:Bedford Town Seal.png
• Image:Antrim Town Seal.png
• Image:Andover Town Seal.png

Orphaned non-free media (Image:La-Fea-mas-Bella.png)

Thanks for uploading Image:La-Fea-mas-Bella.png. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 12:11, 12 May 2008 (UTC)

I took care of this issue. Someone uploaded a new image, Image:Lafeaa.jpg, today and replaced the one you uploaded in the article causing the one you uploaded to be orphaned. The new image the person uploaded did not have a license or FUR. I reverted his/her change back to the image you uploaded. We know you're off building condos all over the world so we got your back! - ✰ALLSTAR✰ ^echo 13:34, 12 May 2008 (UTC)

question re dealing with uncited material

When dealing with possibly factual but uncited material continually added to an article, do you think it's better to keep removing it and leaving a note on the editor's talk page, or to look for a source myself? On one hand, the material sometimes seems easily verifiable, on the other hand I don't want to feel like I'm continually fact-checking for people who can't be bothered to do their own (and show their work).

Mistake by SatyrBot

This relates to an old edit I've only just noticed, so the problem may have been fixed by now, but: on February 12, SatyrBot duplicated the existing 'oldafd' template when updating the rating on Talk:Tom Walsh (coach).

Schillaci

You wrote: Having a relationship (sexual or otherwise) with a man when you're a man - that's what homosexuality is. Labeling Schillaci gay is incorrect by any definition. His molesting was about power, not the gender of the person being molested.

And you couldn't be more wrong. Paedophiles may be either heterosexual, homosexual or bisexual. He's a homosexual paedophile, simply. Read up on Pedophilia and get your facts straight. Nor is pedophilia about power/domination, I guess it could be, but that's rare. Stop speaking about things you don't understand, please. --81.234.213.165 (talk) 19:57, 25 June 2008 (UTC)

Bad edits by SatyrBot

Hi, I saw this edit by SatyrBot today. It looks like the bot is adding an "importance" parameter to the {{WPBiography}} template. This parameter was deprecated a long time ago for {{WPBiography}}. WPBiography uses the "priority" parameter instead (don't know why). Please update SatyrBot accordingly (or convince WikiProject Biography to go back to using "importance"). Thanks!
