Renee Alway or Renee DeWitt

Her name on the show was Alway. Since the beginning of her cycle, she was called Alway. I dont know, why you always have to edit right things. You can see it here. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/America%27s_Next_Top_Model_(cycle_8) or here http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-2379211/Troubled-Americas-Next-Top-Model-finalist-Renee-Alway-shaves-head-court-appearance-burglary-arrest.html or here http://abcnews.go.com/Entertainment/renee-alway-americas-top-model-prison/story?id=28236042 She was always called Alway. — Preceding unsigned comment added by DDKay (talkcontribs) 18:15, 27 January 2016 (UTC)

No she was known as Alway on the show. Dewitt is the name of her husband. But she stays with er name. — Preceding unsigned comment added by DDKay (talkcontribs) 18:38, 27 January 2016 (UTC)

So why was all the time Renee Alway her name on Wikipedia? One other thing. The table is so concentrated. Can we edit it, like the other tables of the other Topmodel Shows? because of the facet, it is concentrated, the table is so long. and i dont get the fact with polands next topmodel 5.... why is this the only cycle who was deleted. i mean its wikipedia and wikipedia provides so many infos. i think every cycle is very important and has many important facts... the call out order for example and the ages and hometowns of every single constant. — Preceding unsigned comment added by DDKay (talkcontribs) 18:53, 27 January 2016 (UTC)

So if we know, her name was DeWitt, we can edit her name in her cycle too. I mean the table is so crushed. I think the nowraps for the dates can smooth away. the fact with polands next topmodel isnt so good.... where can i take a look in the cycle now? — Preceding unsigned comment added by DDKay (talkcontribs) 19:31, 27 January 2016 (UTC)

Other good candidates for deletion

My mistake.

"Shut Up and Drive" used to be a disambiguation page, but is no longer. Obviously, the cardboard link intends the material, not the song. Your reversion of my edit was quite right, thanks. bd2412 T 19:45, 1 February 2016 (UTC)

Don't worry, it's fine :) Linguist111 (talk) 19:47, 1 February 2016 (UTC)

Oliver Stummvoll

Hi, that tag was added by error. I have reverted it now. The article seemed messed up as it did not contain a 'References' heading before listing all the references. This caused me to perceive references as being totally absent. Rollingcontributor (talk) 14:28, 7 February 2016 (UTC)

Adding an image to an article

Hello admin(s),

I want to add an image to this article, but I'm not sure if I can, due to copyright. How can I add the image while avoiding copyright violations?

Thank you in advance,

Linguist111 (talk) 17:03, 7 February 2016 (UTC)

Please come to IRC because we will be able to answer your question easier. Thanks, Tom29739 [talk] 18:04, 7 February 2016 (UTC).

Laura Penelope quit

Hello, Laura Penelope decided to go voluntarily. The Jury said to Laura Franziska, she is in and ask Laura Penelope, if she will get an Makeover. She said no. She wanted to keep her dreadlocks. After that she comes with the other bottom girls to get their decision. The Jury asked her again and she dicided to go. So she quit, because normally she was in the next round. — Preceding unsigned comment added by DDKay (talkcontribs) 23:36, 12 February 2016 (UTC) Yes i am german. It was her decision to go. She had the choice to stay and get an makeover or to go and keep her dreadlocks. She goes. — Preceding unsigned comment added by DDKay (talkcontribs) 12:21, 13 February 2016 (UTC)

Hey :)

I just wanted to say thank you for all your recent efforts improving top model articles! Really helpful. Trafalk09 (talk) 22:57, 22 February 2016 (UTC)

AsNTM

Why do you keep putting the full names of the models in the AsNTM page? Unless sourced by the official AsNTM page, its original research. It makes the table look cluttered/messy in general, and the table alignment should be left to make everything look uniform/neat. Why do YOU think you are correct, if you're gonna undo my edits and threaten "to block me from editing" then at least give a valid explanation. 76.168.49.73 (talk) 21:42, 27 February 2016 (UTC)

"Vandalism"

My edits are not even vandalism? Am I changing any information about anything?? Please before you claim that I do something actually know. I've explained my edits already so please don't call my edits vandalism. Have a good dayPokemon315066 (talk) 01:41, 3 March 2016 (UTC)

Evelina Säkk

She's real name is Säkk, not Syakk. So please don't change that. Ahsoous (talk) 19:40, 7 March 2016 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Ena Kadic, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Tyrol. 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.

AsNTM: "Representatives per country"

Hello, Linguist111! In lieu with the "experiment" on Asia's Next Top Model, I decided to remove the section because I think it wouldn't be easy to manage, especially with that size with all four seasons in consideration. Imagine if we had twenty-two (or more) seasons for Asia's Next Top Model just like America's Next Top Model? It will be so big and overwhelming and unnecessary, even for an ordinary reader who really have no idea with the show. Maybe we could represent each contestant with a flag icon before their name in the "Cycles" section, but that would be overwhelming as well. The "Representatives per country" section will always be a welcome change, especially for us Top Model fans, but I think the projection of information isn't the best at the moment. Maybe we can find a better way right now, for the future contestants to come. Waiting for your reply, K CMS.

P.S. I removed it, if you don't mind. I will come up with a better lay-out for the information. Feel free to talk with me on my page if you have any ideas I can take into consideration. — Preceding unsigned comment added by K CMS (talkcontribs) 15:21, 12 March 2016 (UTC)

Thank you for the suggestion! I hope we can work with more Top Model articles in the future. k_cms (talk) 15:36, 12 March 2016 (UTC)K CMS

I actually have! I'll be uploading the code in a bit. k_cms (talk) 10:41, 19 March 2016 (UTC)

I almost forgot to tell you I've made two tables, following the franchise's description about its coverage being Far East (East Asia and Southeast Asia + South Asia). — Preceding unsigned comment added by K CMS (talkcontribs) 10:58, 19 March 2016 (UTC)

Tables posted! Feel free to apply changes, but I recommend leaving the names as it is in the tables. Find it under "Contestants per country," as used in the show to refer to the models more often. k_cms (talk) 12:48, 19 March 2016 (UTC)

Stop to threaten other admins

Don't threaten me with blogging, only because you don't like rectifications. We don't add the flacs of the Winners and runner-ups into the table. These table isnt for those informations, rather the site for each cycle are. So if you have questions, why i deleted the flacs you can asked me and dont threaten me and remove youre things. thank you — Preceding unsigned comment added by DDKay (talkcontribs) 22:12, 12 March 2016 (UTC)

Which country the winners and runner-ups represend are informations in each cycle site. On the headline of the colomn is writing "Winner" and "Runner-up/s" and not "Winner and Countrie". These aren't informations for this table. — Preceding unsigned comment added by DDKay (talkcontribs) 22:24, 12 March 2016 (UTC)

I think, we can put at least an extra column into the table, if its really important to have these informations n this table. And i think only for the winners and not for the runner-ups. — Preceding unsigned comment added by DDKay (talkcontribs) 22:40, 12 March 2016 (UTC)

Gntm

Hello, i've found out, that the order of elimination in one epiosde have something to do with the placement of the constants. For example Christin and Yusra. This two are eliminated in the same decision, but Yusra was stronger than Christin. So we know, which one got which placement. Christin was eliminated directly and Yusra was at first, with Laura Franziska, an constant, who go back, because the judgement was unsure. If the placement of Christin and Yusra are the same, why did they eliminated one directly on the other not. So i dont think the eliminations at Gntm counts as double or triple eliminations, expect the one with Nancy, Lisa and Linda in Cycle 8. Im not sure, if the "&" symbols are right. — Preceding unsigned comment added by DDKay (talkcontribs) 10:35, 13 March 2016 (UTC)

The decision with Yusra and Christin is only an example. There are more decisions like that, in the complete history of Gntm. I think every desicion is like that. The order of the eliminations in each week shows, which one is higher.DDKay (talk) 11:36, 13 March 2016 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by DDKay (talkcontribs) 11:34, 13 March 2016 (UTC)

No, ive found out it is reflective of placement. In every desicion. They always eliminated the weakest one at first in each week and than the second and/or third weakest.

There is not really a source i can show. i live in berlin and ive talked to Michael Michalsky. And on the other hand oyu can see it in the call-out order. Shirin was better than Sophie, Saskia was better than Fred, Laura Br. was better than Jennifer and so on. Its to see in the other cycle too.DDKay (talk) 11:48, 13 March 2016 (UTC)

Flags in column of Winners and Runner-ups

Hello, is it okay, that i make and new column in the table for the flags of the winners at Asia's next topmodel and the others? But only the winners? — Preceding unsigned comment added by DDKay (talkcontribs) 10:40, 13 March 2016 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Benelux' Next Top Model (cycle 1), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Gillette. 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.

Britains Next Topmodel

Lucy Ratcliff wasnt Lucy Emily Ratcliff on the show. She only held as Lucy Ratcliff. Samantha Gerrad wasnt held as Sam on the show. — Preceding unsigned comment added by DDKay (talkcontribs) 17:37, 18 March 2016 (UTC)

AsNTM: Contestants' names

To start off, I'd like to thank you for your huge contribution to Top Model articles here on Wikipedia. I'd like to raise my concern about their names on these articles, especially Asia's Next Top Model contestants and their names. I believe every Wikipedia article should be clear and concise, so should be AsNTM articles as well, right? A clear and concise article will help everyone find out more about its subject. I suppose the names of the contestants should (a) display nicknames, aside from their real names, for transparency's sake and a way for people to keep track of them when looking up for them in modelling agency websites, (b) remove names of other languages, take the Chinese names of contestants with Chinese descent as examples, as they really aren't referred that way in the show, knowing the show's medium is in English, (c) these names should be cohesive from information available on the show and on its official website. Hoping for your reply soon. k_cms (talk) 12:26, 21 March 2016 (UTC)

Speedy deletion

Speedy deletion for G3 has to be blatant vandalism. I don't see how the article Asia's Next Top Model (cycle 5) is blatant vandalism. I removed the template because I was contesting the deletion of the article in good faith. When that happens you should move to another deletion process in the future, instead of retagging the article. As you noticed with the template you placed on my user page, the only rule for removal of speedy deletion tags is that they can't be removed from pages that you created yourself. Since I was an uninvolved editor, I decided that G3 did not apply and removed the speedy deletion. Speedy deletion is intended to be for removing either content that could cause legal issues or uncontroversial deletion, and as soon as an editor removes a speedy deletion tag it's clearly not uncontroversial. Regards, Appable (talk) 19:20, 21 March 2016 (UTC)

AfD

When you place a Afd tag at an article like you did on Eleonore Lilja, it is a good faith move if you let the article creator know this. For future reference. Thanks.--BabbaQ (talk) 12:56, 24 March 2016 (UTC)
