Scott MacGillivray

Hi. I see you've been here a while, but as no one seems to have extended you an official Wikipedia welcome yet, let me belatedly take care of that now: Welcome!

Hello, Scott MacGillivray, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are some pages that you might find helpful:

• The five pillars of Wikipedia
• How to edit a page
• Help pages
• Tutorial
• How to write a great article
• Manual of Style

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question and then place {{helpme}} before the question on your talk page. Again, welcome!  Cheers, -- Infrogmation 16:48, 10 May 2007 (UTC)

P.S.: Please don't be afraid of red linked names if they are someone we ought to have an article on (eg Tony Sbarbaro); this is a project still under construction of course, and such red links help show things we still need to fill in. Cheers, -- Infrogmation 17:07, 10 May 2007 (UTC)

Flesh and Fantasy

Reading about that film in your Gloria Jean book, I thought the Gloria Jean portion of the film, as described, sounded like an extraordinary piece of filmmaking. Maybe ahead of its time? Baseball Bugs ^{What's up, Doc?} 17:58, 11 March 2009 (UTC)

Hello Scott MacGillivray! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot alerting you that 1 of the articles that you created is an Unreferenced Biography of a Living Person.

Once the article is adequately referenced, please remove the {{unreferencedBLP}} tag. Here is the article:

License tagging for File:Gloria Jean pose.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Gloria Jean pose.jpg. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information.

To add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia. For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 18:05, 7 June 2012 (UTC)

Chaplin

Hi! Thank you for your recent addition to the Charlie Chaplin article - I appreciate that you spent some time writing it all up and that you were only trying to improve the article. Unfortunately I have reverted these because 1) there was already some information about Essanay making films out of his material in a footnote, and I'm afraid your version went into excessive detail, and 2) it is a WP:Featured article and we simply can't have these large chunks of unsourced text (by the way, I looked at your edit again after I reverted and apologies - my edit summary was wrong as I see that you had simply moved the information about his popularity). Again I'm genuinely sorry but myself and another editor spent a lot of time trying to get the perfect level of detail in the article, and I fear that your stuff was a bit on the long side, about something not entirely essential to his career...although you may well be right that we should make a brief mention of it in the main text, and then add more detail in a footnote. I hope you understand! Cheers, keep up the good work --Loeba (talk) 22:11, 27 January 2014 (UTC)

Gloria Jean
