Thanks for uploading '''[[:File:Erica Hill at CBS Upfront.jpg]]'''. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of [[Wikipedia:Non-free content|fair use]]. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the [[Wikipedia:Non-free content criteria|first non-free content criterion]]. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have ''no free equivalent''; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:

# Go to [[:File:Erica Hill at CBS Upfront.jpg|the file description page]] and add the text <code><nowiki>{{di-replaceable fair use disputed|<your reason>}}</nowiki></code> '''below''' the original replaceable fair use template, replacing <code><your reason></code> with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
# On [[File talk:Erica Hill at CBS Upfront.jpg|the file discussion page]], write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, [[Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission|requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license]], or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

:Just a follow-up note: per [[Wikipedia:Non-free content]], non-free images of living persons are almost never acceptable on Wikipedia as it could reasonably be expected that someone somehow could obtain a freely licensed photograph of said living person. Non-free material is generally only acceptable in cases when it would truly be impossible to obtain an alternate image, such as with deceased persons, logos, copyrighted media, and the like. If you have any questions, please let me know. <span style="white-space:nowrap; text-shadow:gray 5px 3px 1px;">— [[User:Huntster|Huntster]] <small>([[User talk:Huntster|t]] [[Special:Emailuser/Huntster|@]] [[Special:Contributions/Huntster|c]])</small></span> 18:39, 31 December 2014 (UTC)

== Non-free images of living persons ==

Please stop uploading images of living persons that are not freely licensed. Wikipedia policy is that fair use images may only be used sparingly, and never in place of freely licensed images. Additionally, because living persons have the possibility, however remote, of being photographed and a freely licensed image of them released, non-free images of them are not acceptable except in extremely limited circumstances (such as a significantly notable moment in time that could not be reproduced in a freely licensed image). An article merely having no image of a person is not a reason to use a non-free image (such as with [[Erica Hill]]), nor is an older image in an article an acceptable reason (as with [[Zooey Deschanel]]). I'll be happy to answer any questions you may have about this situation, but do not continue uploading images as you have been doing. Thank you. <span style="white-space:nowrap; text-shadow:gray 5px 3px 1px;">— [[User:Huntster|Huntster]] <small>([[User talk:Huntster|t]] [[Special:Emailuser/Huntster|@]] [[Special:Contributions/Huntster|c]])</small></span> 19:03, 31 December 2014 (UTC)

A tag has been placed on [[:File:Erica Hill at CBS Upfront.jpg]] requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under [[WP:CSD#F7|section F7 of the criteria for speedy deletion]], because it is a [[Wikipedia:Non-free content|non-free file]] with a clearly invalid licensing tag; or it otherwise fails some part of the [[Wikipedia:Non-free content criteria|non-free content criteria]]. If you can find a valid tag that expresses why the file can be used under the [[Wikipedia:Non-free content|fair use guidelines]], please replace the current tag with that tag. If no such tag exists, please add the {{tl|Non-free fair use}} tag, ''along with'' a brief explanation of why this constitutes fair use of the file. If the file has been deleted, you can re-upload it, but please ensure you place the correct tag on it.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may '''contest the nomination''' by [[:File:Erica Hill at CBS Upfront.jpg|visiting the page]] and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion".

Edit summaries

Hi IPadPerson, I know that Wikipedia can be a frustrating place sometimes, but could you try to tone down the edit summaries some? I'm not personally very sensitive about profanity, but some other contributors are, so it's good to avoid it if you can. Thannks, Mark Arsten (talk) 00:25, 3 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Revert

Please do not revert my edits again without explaining why. I removed that section because it was a repetition of what was in Background and release section. prism 20:14, 11 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

question about warnings

Hi, so I noticed warning that you placed on a user's talk page and, try as I might, I cannot find where they have added defamatory content to any articles whatsoever. Do you have a diff of when and how they did this? Thanks so much! Deville (Talk) 04:57, 16 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The "defamatory content" of IP address 94.14.112.118 is on several articles. You can go to his/her contributions page. He/she has changed articles by 63 bytes by adding "See release history" in small text (See differences between revisions for those articles). I along with other users have reverted those edits he/she made because that is disruptive editing, and has been told why and warned on his/her talk page; he/she has done this since yesterday (February 15th). I then reported him/her to administrators and he/she has now been blocked for 48 hours for his/her unconstructive contributions. --IPadPerson (talk) 00:31, 17 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Would you change the phrase: 'As of June 2013, she has sold an estimated three million albums and ten million singles worldwide' to now he updated: 'With over 15 million singles and 4 million album sales worldwide'. Thanks. SOURCE:http://premier.ticketek.com.au/shows/show.aspx?sh=ELLIEGOU14 — Preceding unsigned comment added by 110.174.41.161 (talk) 22:50, 8 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Vandalism warning

You do know that this edit was to the automated bot that was trying to wrap up the FAC on the article? Perhaps a nice polite note on the page would be better? (Btw, even if it was a vandal, it's unhelpful to jump straight to a level 4 warning as a first offence). - SchroCat (talk) 20:31, 9 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I deleted that picture because it was on her page twice with the exact same caption and everything. So maybe we should just have one copy of it on her page? Sorry, next time I'll put that in the summary.... --Divine618 (talk) 21:39, 13 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

IPadPerson,

Given your edits to Demi Lovato-related articles, I thought you might support this. Care to join the WikiProject if it is created?

My Apologies

Hi IPadPerson,

I apologize if it appeared that I was making disruptive edits, I simply forgot to check for typos before I saved the changes on Paranoid (Ty Dolla Sign song)

WikiCup 2014 March newsletter

A quick update as we are half way through round two of this year's competition. WikiCup newcomer Smithsonian Institution Godot13 (submissions) (Pool E) leads, having produced a massive set of featured pictures for Silver certificate (United States), an article also brought to featured list status. Former finalist Oh, better far to live and die / Under the brave black flag I fly... Adam Cuerden (submissions) (Pool G) is in second, which he owes mostly to his work with historical images, including a number of images from Urania's Mirror, an article also brought to good status. 2010 champion (Pool C) is third overall, thanks to contributions relating to naval history, including the newly featured Japanese battleship Nagato. Rhodesia Cliftonian (submissions), who currently leads Pool A and is sixth overall, takes the title for the highest scoring individual article of the competition so far, with the top importance featured article Ian Smith.

With 26 people having already scored over 100 points, it is likely that well over 100 points will be needed to secure a place in round 3. Recent years have required 123 (2013), 65 (2012), 41 (2011) and 100 (2010). Remember that only 64 will progress to round 3 at the end of April. Invitations for collaborative writing efforts or any other discussion of potentially interesting work is always welcome on the WikiCup talk page; if two or more WikiCup competitors have done significant work on an article, all can claim points equally. If you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is at good article candidates, a featured process, or anywhere else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews. If you want to help out with the WikiCup, please do your bit to help keep down the review backlogs! Questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. Good luck!

Hey, sorry I am not a regular on Wikipedia but I did see a clear mistake in Rebel Wilson's age. I booked her travel for Night At The Museum 3 and can confirm that her full name is Rebel Melanie Elizabeth Wilson and her birthdate is 02/03/1986.

Need your help

Hello, IPadPerson,

I need some information from you. WP:VisualEditor (or Parsoid, which is its backend infrastructure) screwed up something when you made this edit. The developers are trying to figure out how to fix it, but (of course!) it works correctly for them. So could you tell me what kind of web browser and computer you're using for these edits? It would really help them narrow down the options. Thanks, Whatamidoing (WMF) (talk) 22:21, 17 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I am using Mozilla Firefox on a Dell Inspiron One desktop computer.--IPadPerson (talk) 22:24, 17 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks! I'll tell them to focus on Firefox for their testing. I assume that you're running Windows on your Dell, since that's what that model appears to ship with normally, but let me know if you're not. I really appreciate your quick response. Thanks again, Whatamidoing (WMF) (talk) 00:37, 18 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Calvin Harris

Is the United Kingdom not a country and a sovereign state? --Erzan (talk) 03:25, 19 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The United Kingdom IS a country and Scotland is a part of it as its own country, and you have edit-warred over it on that article repeatedly after getting reverted. Do not violate the 3RR policy, or you may be blocked for doing so.--IPadPerson (talk) 11:31, 19 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

If the United Kingdom is a country and a sovereign state, what is the problem with Calvin Harris wikipedia entry being edited according to his citizenship, country and sovereign-state? Which is the United Kingdom. The user SnapSnap has engaged in six edits, not made any attempts at discussing the issue and has yet received a warning. --Erzan (talk) 12:10, 19 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

That user has told you that your addition of "United Kingdom" is potentially unconstructive and unhelpful. He does not need a warning for your vandalism that you commit. I reverted you twice for the exact same thing, and you're still edit warring. If you continue, you will see yourself blocked again.--IPadPerson (talk) 12:19, 19 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I'm unclear how mentioning Dumfries, Scotland, UK on the Calvin Harris birth place is unconstructive and unhelpful? that would make many similar wikipedia entries which follow the same pattern (city, region, sovereign-state) unconstructive and unhelpful too. Vandalism is any addition, removal, or change of content, in a deliberate attempt to compromise the integrity of Wikipedia. Examples of typical vandalism are adding irrelevant obscenities and crude humor to a page, illegitimately blanking pages, and inserting obvious nonsense into a page. How is editing Calvin Harris location to Dumfries, Scotland, UK vandalism?

Is it not possible to have both Scotland and the UK mentioned? --Erzan (talk) 12:42, 19 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I feel I should comment: Scotland is a country, UK isn't so much a country as it is a union of countries. Scotland is part of the UK along with Wales, England, and Northern Ireland. This is why it is often ambiguous to call something "British". I would not include "UK" in ones birth location since it is not one country. XXSNUGGUMSXX (talk) 15:24, 19 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Hello, XXSNUGGUMSXX I am unsure how or where you have reached the conclusion that the UK is not a country. But every international and regional organisation recognises the UK (or formerly the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland) as a country. For example the Olympics, UN, NATO, EU, WTO and OECED. I could cite many respected academic sources that describes the UK as a country and could easily list plenty of media articles from reputable media organisations from around the world that does. --Erzan (talk) 15:41, 19 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Moving "Kiss Me"

I saw the move and the reason, that I didn't quite understand, that "another Wikipedia page has the same song title", but I don't see that page or a dab that was constructed to deal with that. Care to explain, on the article's talk page? Walter Görlitz (talk) 06:10, 21 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

IPadPerson, I know you don't like hearing about this, but please take more caution with your edit summaries. This can easily come off as an insult.

WikiCup 2014 April newsletter

Round 3 of the 2014 WikiCup has just begun; 32 competitors remain. Pool G's Oh, better far to live and die / Under the brave black flag I fly... Adam Cuerden (submissions) was Round 2's highest scorer, with a large number of featured picture credits. In March/April, he restored star charts from Urania's Mirror, lithographs of various warships (such as SMS Gefion) and assorted other historical media. Second overall was Pool E's Smithsonian Institution Godot13 (submissions), whose featured list Silver certificate (United States) contains dozens of scans of banknotes recently promoted to featured picture status. Third was Pool G's United States ChrisGualtieri (submissions) who has produced a large number of good articles, many, including Falkner Island, on Connecticut-related topics. Other successful participants included Rhodesia Cliftonian (submissions), who saw three articles (including the top-importance Ian Smith) through featured article candidacies, and Washington, D.C. Caponer (submissions), who saw three lists (including the beautifully-illustrated list of plantations in West Virginia) through featured list candidacies. High-importance good articles promoted this round include narwhal from Canada Reid,iain james (submissions), tiger from Wales Cwmhiraeth (submissions) and The Lion King from Minas Gerais Igordebraga (submissions). We also saw our first featured topic points of the competition, awarded to Nepal Czar (submissions) and Indiana Red Phoenix (submissions) for their work on the Sega Genesis topic. No points have been claimed so far for good topics or featured portals.

192 was our lowest qualifying score, again showing that this WikiCup is the most competitive ever. In previous years, 123 (2013), 65 (2012), 41 (2011) or 100 (2010) secured a place in Round 3. Pool H was the strongest performer, with all but one of its members advancing, while only the two highest scorers in Pools G and F advanced. At the end of June, 16 users will advance into the semi-finals. If you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is at good article candidates, a featured process, or anywhere else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews.

She Looks So Perfect

you have got to be kidding me 5 Seconds of Summer is nothing close to pop punk do you even listen to pop-punk? The wonder years, the story so far, all time low, neck deep, man overboard, blink-182 5sos sounds NOTHING like those bands, especially that song it has NO PUNK INFLUENCE WHATSOEVER i will defend pop-punk!! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.189.29.198 (talk) 04:42, 6 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

look i'm not even saying they're a bad band or anything, they're really talented and they play actual instruments and write their own songs. but their sound is more pop/rock like hot chelle rae, allstar weekend, etc. just because they cite blink 182 and all time low as influences doesn't make them pop-punk, they legit sound nothing like those bands! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.189.29.198 (talk) 04:49, 6 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

You definitely need to stop personal attacking me and edit warring before I have to report you to ANI. You are probably not that familiar with them and carelessly removed the genre from the She Looks So Perfect article without an explanation. I suggest that you listen closely to more of their music before you carelessly remove genres, as "pop punk" was still on the band's Wikipedia article. IPadPerson (talk) 10:34, 6 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not personally attacking you, I'm just stating facts. I've listened to their earlier stuff before, I knew about them for about a year now, since before they were famous. Don't assume. SOME of their early songs had pop-punk style in it, gearing more towards the pop side. but she's so perfect, not just the song but the EP itself, is so far-stretched from pop-punk music. And I'm NOT saying they are a bad band, okay they're good, they're really talented, but you can't just throw them into a genre simply because they were influenced by those kind of bands. --24.189.29.198 (talk) 06:10, 7 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Cavallari picture

Adding images to an article help it. The image is of her pregnant with her second child and it's a recent picture from this year.

Adding notes and insufficient edit summaries

Hi, Firstly, thank you for the excellent work you have been doing. I have two things to bring up with you if I may?

  1. Notes like this would be seen as disruptive as there have been no issues with genres in the last few days. Hidden notes should ALWAYS be kept to a MINIMUM as they can become annoying and redundant.
  2. When you leave an edit summary, can you please try and be a bit more detailed. For example instead of just saying "Note" say something like "adding hidden note about genres due to recent edits/vandalism".

This helps others to work out useful edits from useless ones. Many thanks. → Lil-℧niquԐ 1 - { Talk } - 21:55, 11 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Removal of navigation templates

Why did you do this?—Kww(talk) 14:03, 13 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Because the article on the celebrity had 292,069 views in the past 30 days and the article on the boxer only had 1,147 views in the past 30 days. When you type the first four letters of the celebrity's name, his name is the fourth that comes up and the Australian boxer does not come up unless you type its full name and gives you two options, since the celebrity is more well-known than the boxer. IPadPerson (talk) 14:38, 13 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
"The Australian boxer does not come up unless you type its full name" is precisely why we have those links. When people don't arrive at the article they want, they get a pointer to the article that they do want. Don't remove such links in the future.—Kww(talk) 14:51, 13 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

WikiCup 2014 June newsletter

After an extremely close race, Round 3 is over. 244 points secured a place in Round 4, which is comparable to previous years- 321 was required in 2013, while 243 points were needed in 2012. Pool C's Smithsonian Institution Godot13 (submissions) was the round's highest scorer, mostly due to a 32 featured pictures, including both scans and photographs. Also from Pool C, Scotland Casliber (submissions) finished second overall, claiming three featured articles, including the high-importance Grus (constellation). Third place was Pool B's , whose contributions included featured articles Russian battleship Poltava (1894) and Russian battleship Peresvet. Pool C saw the highest number of participants advance, with six out of eight making it to the next round.

The round saw this year's first featured portal, with Republic of Rose Island Sven Manguard (submissions) taking Portal:Literature to featured status. The round also saw the first good topic points, thanks to Florida 12george1 (submissions) and the 2013 Atlantic hurricane season. This means that all content types have been claimed this year. Other contributions of note this round include a featured topic on Maya Angelou's autobiographies from Idaho Figureskatingfan (submissions), a good article on the noted Czech footballer Tomáš Rosický from Bartošovice v Orlických horách Cloudz679 (submissions) and a now-featured video game screenshot, freely released due to the efforts of Republic of Rose Island Sven Manguard (submissions).

The judges would like to remind participants to update submission pages promptly. This means that content can be checked, and allows those following the competition (including those participating) to keep track of scores effectively.

Disambiguation link notification for July 2

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Savannah Guthrie, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Today (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

DPL bot, in case you didn't know, when I cicked on fix with Dab solver, it says that the Toolserver was discontinued. Now, I will have to do so manually to the Savannah Guthrie article. Would you mind fixing the issue with the disambiguation fix page? IPadPerson (talk) 15:32, 2 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Mind Yourself

Do not come to my talk page and litter it with irrelevant, poorly reviewed commentary. 3RR concerns continuous back and forth reverts between two parties, so you have no business cluttering my page with that. Accidentally reverting your correction, instead of restoring a previous version obviously does not fully constitute that. If I remember you have a block history, so I'd suggest you avoid harassing others pointlessly and mind your own editing habits. ––––Carmaker1 (talk) 15:05, 2 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Didn't see that coming as an harassment. :( IPadPerson (talk) 15:25, 2 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hey IPadPerson. I reverted your edit to Jimmy Kimmel Live! since you removed a gigantic chunk of content. Just wanted to let you know. Was it a mistake or a glitch? --k6ka (talk | contribs) 13:44, 3 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I only intended to adjust a little chunk of text to that article, but it turned out to be a removal of the entire page. So yes, it was a glitch. IPadPerson (talk) 20:08, 3 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hi! Would you care to review my FA nomination for the article Of Human Feelings? The article is about a jazz album by Ornette Coleman, and the criteria for FA articles is at WP:FACR. If not, feel free to ignore this message. Cheers! Dan56 (talk) 10:24, 6 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Profile picture

Can you change Ariana Grande's profile picture to Break Free? And how come you can edit Ariana's but I cannot? — Preceding unsigned comment added by IArianasPrivate (talkcontribs) 10:56 am, Today (UTC−4)

An infobox article of a BLP must contain an image of that person, not screenshots of album/song covers or music videos. The reason that you may not be able to edit Ariana's article is because you may not be an autoconfirmed user since the article currently allows only autoconfirmed users to edit.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Erin McCarley, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Adult alternative.

Oh yeah, article texts says "perfect pop-rock hooks" that is a musical idea, often a short riff, passage, or phrase, that is used in popular music to make a song appealing and to "catch the ear of the listener". 183.171.160.163 (talk) 01:08, 22 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Jessie J

Hi, I saw you have been working on Jessie J's new single "Bang Bang", I'm a huge fan of hers, so I would like to ask you if you could
keep in touch about the US charts, like the Billboard Hot 100, so if this song enter that chart you could be able to update it on
this song's article. Waiting for your answer in my talk page. Thanks for helping. JD3rulo (talk) 21:23, 31 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Juju Chang

Hello. You reverted out my addition to the caption of the infobox on Juju Chang as "redundant". Perhaps and seemingly so. But I was trying to clarify for whom she worked in 2007 when the photo was taken. There seems to be some murkiness in this information in the article itself. Been editing Wikipedia since January 2005. --- Wikiklrsc (talk) 23:41, 31 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Oh. IPadPerson (talk) 23:48, 31 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
No real problem. I've done some more editing but left the non-redundant version intact for now. Thanks. --- Wikiklrsc (talk) 02:55, 1 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Miley Cyrus

The edits were previously reverted because some charities did not have Wiki pages and were thus considered non-notable. So I deleted them without a fuss. But most of the other charities that are included in the article have their Wiki pages and are therefore notable, and not applicable for deletion under WP:INDISCRIMINATE. Therefore they will not be deleted. Don't go around threatening to block me for verifiable edits. CyrockingSmiler (talk) 16:47, 1 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

@CyrockingSmiler:: Please abide to the revert summaries and warnings that myself and User:Lady Lotus have inputed. Also, I am not an administrator. IPadPerson (talk)

I listen to Lady Lotus at once when he/she deletes my edits. I have followed every rule and deleted the charities when Lady Lotus told me to do so. But the rest of the charities have their own Wikipedia pages and have been included because they are notable. So how come some editors continue deleting them, even though they are notable? CyrockingSmiler (talk) 17:00, 1 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Drake & Josh

Hello you told me I vandalized the Drake & Josh page but I never did and I'm worried because you said it was my final warning when I never did anything — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24lakers2 (talkcontribs) 10:50, 2 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

@JohnGormleyJG: The cover for the DVD was a copyright violation and the information was not from reliable sources. IPadPerson (talk) 14:50, 6 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The Pinkprint

It would be appreciated if you looked over and voted on the move request for The Pink Print to the The Pinkprint. Up to this point there hasn't been a direct response as to which spelling was correct. Nicki Minaj herself clarified the question directly stating it was written, "The Pinkprint", (https://twitter.com/NICKIMINAJ/status/497117375712329728). Leave either your support or opposition for the move here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:The_Pink_Print#Requested_move_06_August_2014.

Your rollback request

Hi IPadPerson, I have granted rollback rights to your account in accordance with your request. Please be aware that rollback should be used to revert vandalism, spam and blatantly unconstructive edits; using it to revert any other type of edit - such as by revert-warring or reverting edits you disagree with - can lead to it being removed from your account...sometimes without any warning, as some admins do not warn if they become aware of any misuse. If you think an edit should require a reason for reverting, you should use a manual edit summary instead of the rollback tool. For practice, you may wish to review Wikipedia:New admin school/Rollback. Good luck. Acalamari 14:47, 11 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

@Acalamari: Thanks a lot! I totally appreciate it. IPadPerson (talk) 14:50, 11 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Cody Simpson Edit

You deleted my Cody Simpson edit as you consider the source to not be good enough. It may be a celeb site but most of his other sources are. The source in question also has comments posted from his personal twitter account therefore the information posted is reliable.

WikiCup 2014 August newsletter

The final of the 2014 WikiCup begins in a few short minutes! Our eight finalists are listed below, along with their placement in Round 4:

  1. Smithsonian Institution Godot13 (submissions), a WikiCup newcomer, finished top of Pool A and was the round's highest scorer. Godot is a featured picture specialist, claiming large numbers of points due to high-quality scans of historical documents, especially banknotes.
  2. Scotland Casliber (submissions) is a WikiCup veteran, having been a finalist every year since 2010. In the semi-final, he was Pool B's highest scorer. Cas's points primarily come from articles on the natural sciences.
  3. Nepal Czar (submissions) was Pool A's runner-up. Czar's points come mostly from content related to independent video games, including both articles and topics.
  4. Oh, better far to live and die / Under the brave black flag I fly... Adam Cuerden (submissions) was Pool B's runner-up. Another featured picture specialist, many of Adam's points come from the restoration of historical media. He has been a WikiCup finalist twice before.
  5. Wales Cwmhiraeth (submissions) won the WikiCup in 2012 and 2013, and enters this final as the first wildcard. She focuses on biology-related articles, and has worked on several high-importance articles.
  6. Florida 12george1 (submissions) is the second wildcard. George's points come primarily from meteorology-related articles. This year and last year, George was the first person in the competition to score.
  7. Colorado Sturmvogel 66 (submissions), the third wildcard, was the 2010 champion and a finalist last year. His writes mostly on military history, especially naval history.
  8. Canada Bloom6132 (submissions), the fourth and final wildcard, has participated in previous WikiCups, but not reached any finals. Bloom's points are mostly thanks to did you knows, featured lists and good articles related to sport and national symbols.

We say goodbye to this year's semi-finalists. Herm Matty.007 (submissions), Ohio ThaddeusB (submissions), United States WikiRedactor (submissions), Idaho Figureskatingfan (submissions), Greece Yellow Evan (submissions), Portugal Prism (submissions) and Bartošovice v Orlických horách Cloudz679 (submissions) have all performed well to reach this stage of the competition, and we hope they will all be joining us again next year.

There are two upcoming competitions unrelated to the WikiCup which may be of interest to those who receive this newsletter. The Stub Contest will run through September, and revolves around expanding stub articles, especially high-importance or old stubs. In addition, a proposal has been made for a new competition, the GA Cup, which the organisers plan to run next year. This competition is based on the WikiCup and aims to reduce the good article review backlog.

There is now a thread for brainstorming on how next year's WikiCup competition should work. Please come along and share your thoughts- What works? What doesn't work? What needs changing? Signups for next year's competition will be open soon; we will be in touch. If, at this stage of the competition, you are keen to help the with the WikiCup, please do what you can to participate in review processes. Our finalists will find things much easier if the backlogs at good article candidates, featured article candidates, featured picture candidates and the rest are kept at a minimum. As ever, questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. Good luck!

Twinkle question

Hello IPadPerson. I have heard that WP:Twinkle can generate 3RR reports, but have never tried doing that. Was your recent report at WP:AN3 made with Twinkle? If so could you link to how that is done? Thanks, EdJohnston (talk) 21:14, 4 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

@EdJohnston: Yes it was. The way to report edit warring using Twinkle is that you go to a user's page/contributions, fill out the information about where on Wikipedia is the edit warring escalating, and you must also include the reverts by the one you reported on that page. You may want to be more specific about it in the comment box. You then click Submit and it will automatically direct you to the 3RR noticeboard. IPadPerson (talk) 21:42, 4 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for your reply. I can see the 3RR submission screen now. I assume 'Submit query' opens an actual report on the noticeboard? EdJohnston (talk) 04:04, 5 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hannah Davis (model)

I'm unclear on what you were asking for in regards to semi-protection for the page. The page is already semi-protected. CBWeather, Talk, Seal meat for supper? 19:32, 4 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

@CambridgeBayWeather: I meant to request for a change in protection, but I didn't know it would end up in the reduction in protection section. IPadPerson (talk) 19:57, 4 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I take it you were looking for full protection then? I wouldn't go with that right now. They only added it once and you warned them. If they return then it could be reconsidered. CBWeather, Talk, Seal meat for supper? 20:02, 4 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]


I understand that the well-established fact about Hannah Davis & Derek Jeter that I posted days ago, and that you removed, does lack published sources, ones that I will be happy to add ASAP: Has been in a relationship with baseball legend Derek Jeter since 2012, including very public appearances along side him and his parents during his highly celebrated final career games in September 2014.

...BUT, can you please tell me why you considered the post so outrageously "derogatory" that you had to immediately threaten me--in my first-ever such scolding--with the following?: "This is your only warning; if you violate Wikipedia's biographies of living persons policy by inserting unsourced or poorly sourced defamatory content into an article or any other Wikipedia page again, as you did at Hannah Davis (model), you may be blocked from editing without further notice.

Thanks for adding the note, but it's probably unnecessary. These are socks of JoMontNW and their interest in editing these articles is apparently a manifestation of OCD, not a sincere misunderstanding of the facts or of Wikipedia policies. Dwpaul Talk 21:11, 5 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Twitter as a source?

Hi,actually sometimes twitter can be used as a source. However it should be used as a reference as long as:

  • the material is neither unduly self-serving nor an exceptional claim;
  • it does not involve claims about third parties;
  • it does not involve claims about events not directly related to the source;
  • there is no reasonable doubt as to its authenticity;
  • the article is not based primarily on such sources.

I'm posting this on your talk page because I thought you'd like to know more about using twitter as a source. But regarding the revertion you did at Lucy Hale you did the right thing. Because the linked profile says she lives in Tennessee not LA. As the article already states, she is a native of Tennessee and there is no indication of anything related moving out of Tennessee. And please make sure to assume good faiths. Cheers! --Chamith (talk) 16:47, 17 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification for October 24

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Beating Heart (song), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Zedd. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Just wanted to let you know that I sort-of reverted you. I restored essentially the same sentence within the text, and fixed the ref formatting since the source is good. ATinySliver/ATalkPage 02:24, 25 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

IP User:174.25.126.174‎

Hi there! I noticed you reverted most (if not all) of the edits by 174.25.126.174‎ (talk · contribs · WHOIS). I am not arguing this, because I myself have found many of the edits to be questionable at best. What I am not sure if you are aware of, though, is that (I believe) this editor edits from a large number and large range of IP addresses. He is an extremely prolific editor, and I am not sure that he can be easily deterred. Just my 2 cents.--Logical Fuzz (talk) 21:21, 4 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

WikiCup 2014: The results

The 2014 WikiCup champion is Smithsonian Institution Godot13 (submissions), who flew the flag of the Smithsonian Institution. This was Godot13's first WikiCup competition and, over the 10 months of the competition, he has produced (among other contributions) two featured lists and an incredible 292 featured pictures, including architectural photographs and scans of historical documents. Wales Cwmhiraeth (submissions), 2012 and 2013 WikiCup champion, came in second, having written a large number of biology-related articles. Scotland Casliber (submissions), WikiCup finalist every year since 2010, finished in third.

A full list of our prize-winners follows:

Congratulations to everyone who has been successful in this year's WikiCup, whether you made it to the final rounds or not, and a particular congratulations to the newcomers to the WikiCup who have participated this year. We warmly invite all of you to sign up for next year's competition. Discussions and polls concerning potential rules changes are also open, and all are welcome to participate. The WikiCup judges will be back in touch over the coming months, and we hope to see you all in the 2014 competition. Until then, it only remains to once again congratulate our worthy winners, and thank all participants for their involvement! If you wish to start or stop receiving this newsletter, please feel free to add or remove yourself from Wikipedia:WikiCup/Newsletter/Send.

WikiCup 2015 is just around the corner...

Hello everyone, and may we wish you all a happy holiday season. As you will probably already know, the 2015 WikiCup begins in the new year; there is still time to sign up. We have a few important announcements concerning the future of the WikiCup.

  • We would like to announce that Josh (J Milburn) and Ed (The ed17), who have been WikiCup judges since 2009 and 2010 respectively, are stepping down. This decision has been made for a number of reasons, but the main one is time. Both Josh and Ed have found that, over the previous year, they have been unable to devote the time necessary to the WikiCup, and it is not likely that they will be able to do this in the near future. Furthermore, new people at the helm can only help to invigorate the WikiCup and keep it dynamic. Josh and Ed will still be around, and will likely be participating in the Cup this following year as competitors, which is where both started out.
  • In a similar vein, we hope you will all join us in welcoming Jason (Sturmvogel 66) and Christine (Figureskatingfan), who are joining Brian (Miyagawa) to form the 2015 WikiCup judging team. Jason is a WikiCup veteran, having won in 2010 and finishing in fifth this year. Christine has participated in two WikiCups, reaching the semi-finals in both, and is responsible for the GA Cup, which she now co-runs.
  • The discussions/polls concerning the next competition's rules will be closed soon, and rules changes will be made clear on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Scoring and talk pages. While it may be impossible to please everyone, the judges will make every effort to ensure that the new rules are both fair and in the best interests of the competition, which is, first and foremost, about improving Wikipedia.

If you have any questions or concerns, the judges can be reached on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, on their talk pages, or by email. We hope you will all join us in trying to make the 2015 WikiCup the most productive and enjoyable yet. You are receiving this message because you are listed on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Newsletter/Send.

Mistake?

Did I make a mistake? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Curtiss christenson (talkcontribs) 8:45 pm, Today (UTC−5)

@Curtiss christenson: You entered incorrect information such as songs that were not singles and artists that were not featured on it. IPadPerson (talk) 01:51, 10 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I noted your revert of my edit where you say "Source does not say such". If you click on the link provided in the article you can easily see that "executed" is misspelled as "excecuted". What is so hard to see about that? Please check the ref again and you will see that I am right. Just to make it easy for you, you can see the same link here. Then use ctrl-F to search for "excecuted". When you find it perhaps you will consider reverting your revert. I put the sic tag there so that people would realise that the misspelling was originated by the text in the ref and not by Wikipedia. Jodosma (talk) 12:27, 11 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

@Jodosma: Okay. I will add it back. IPadPerson (talk) 19:46, 11 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Would you care to make a comment in the above nomination? Thanks in advance. :) —Indian:BIO [ ChitChat ] 09:19, 15 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

@IndianBio: Of course. Thank you. IPadPerson (talk) 10:56, 15 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Ipad, I think you need to mention whether you support or oppose the promotion. Hehe. —Indian:BIO [ ChitChat ] 05:58, 16 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Accidentally reverted your revert

I saw an opportunity to revert some vandalism on Charli_XCX and ended up reverting your revert. I don't know whether to apologise to you or this IP block. Thanks for making Wikipedia great. --65.202.51.130 (talk) 23:56, 15 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hey there! I noticed that you have reverted my edit on The Family Jewels Tour article stating that the information I added was incorrect. Spark has very recently rebranded herself as Jessica Morgan, therefore I felt it was appropriate to include the name that she goes by now onto the article. I didn't want to merely replace "Spark" with "Jessica Morgan" as that was the stage name she went by at the time of the tour. I hope this clears up any confusion. =] Thanks, Jonny (talk) 23:53, 20 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Just thought you should be aware, given your extensive work in music-related articles, a new editor is attempting to break Wikipedia policy and precedence at The Pinkprint with how producers are listed. Any help would be greatly appreciated. livelikemusic my talk page! 23:24, 26 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

@Livelikemusic: Everything is resolved now. I reverted to the last clean version and left a polite message on that user's talk page. Thank you for notifying me. IPadPerson (talk) 01:44, 27 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Anytime! I'll definitely be keeping an eye out to see if the edit returns, because if it looks like a duck and quacks like a duck, it's likely to be a duck. And it seems to have already quacked. livelikemusic my talk page! 01:47, 27 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
@Livelikemusic: You're absolutely right. Plus, it got reverted by another editor anyways when I was in the middle of undoing it. Let's see what will happen in the future, but I guess it may continue :P IPadPerson (talk) 01:59, 27 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
That edit wasn't undone; their edits to the album reviews was changed. Production is still the same. User has ignored the warnings, and has wiped their talkpage clean, so I'm guessing they're going to do it again. livelikemusic my talk page! 02:01, 27 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I opened an edit-warring report against them, if you wish to discuss there, as well! And re-named this section, since it kept directing me to one up above. livelikemusic my talk page! 01:29, 28 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I wonder what's up with the user(s) making accounts for the sole purpose of including a "friendship" with some pop tart who lies somewhere between WP:NN and WP:IDGAF? ATinySliver/ATalkPage 22:32, 30 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I guess they didn't read the policies and guidelines of Wikipedia before and after joining. I guess it's about time for page protection. IPadPerson (talk) 22:35, 30 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Dunno that I would go there yet. It's still infrequent, if persistent—sort of like a fly in a restaurant. ;) —ATinySliver/ATalkPage 22:44, 30 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
