IP warning
The IP you warned a few days back was apparently trying to create a redirect. The IP is a self-declared noob (see here). Just thought you should know. :) --Gp75motorsports REV LIMITER 21:50, 6 March 2008 (UTC)

Dale Earnhardt Jr.
Carl Edwards who actually won the race actually got penalized for cheating and earned enough points to finish 26th so technically Dale Jr. now has 18 wins because he had more points.(Gordon24fan (talk) 04:39, 7 March 2008 (UTC))
I take your point; however, WP:V applies and anything unsourced is liable to be challenged and removed; sure, if you can find a reliable source, feel free to put it back in. --Rodhullandemu (Talk) 17:31, 14 March 2008 (UTC)
- I can see the problem here, History of Doctor Who presumably sources the continuation from an offline source, and it's obviously implicit in Eccleston being the 9th Doctor that it is intended to be a continuation. I would suggest reverting for now and see if anyone complains; but to take bits here and there from other articles to justify the continuation is a technically a breach of WP:SYNTH, although I doubt if anyone will whinge. References to other sci-fi series as examples, however, are OR. Hope that helps. --Rodhullandemu (Talk) 17:46, 14 March 2008 (UTC)

Sarah Jane and the Five Doctors—response
As the third Doctor clearly recognizes Sarah when they first encounter each other in this story, he has not been taken out of time from before he met her. Indeed, as he has a good idea of what his next incarnation will look like ("all teeth and curls"), this figures to be very late in his "life" from his perspective. His "Nice meeting you, too" to her is in direct response to her saying the same to #5. That she doesn't understand is just not open to reasonable debate. Nice thought, but all facts considered, it doesn't work. On the other hand, Ckatz has taken out the details but left the core statement that she doesn't realize #5 is the same Doctor as he and #4 whom she saw him turn into in the article, which is good enough for me. (Just got your "moot" note!) Ted Watson (talk) 21:34, 21 April 2008 (UTC)
Yep, I changed the wrong parameter. I'm not so great with adjusting templates once they are expanded like that. I changed an "If" argument instead of the length amount. Some days I'm a little slow. Thanks for the tip. Cheers, Pigman☿ 05:04, 29 April 2008 (UTC)

Scrubs entry
"Hello, if you have a citation to the LA Times article you mentioned in your edit summary, could you please place it in the article? I moved the sentence you added after the two references, as neither of those contains that information. If you can, please replace the {{fact}} tag with the reference. (If you any need help with it, feel free to send me the link, and I'd be happy to put it in.) thanks! --Umrguy42 (talk) 18:29, 14 May 2008 (UTC)"
Sorry about that, I don't know how I didn't properly cite the article. I had to dig for it again. Here's the quote in the article: "McPherson also confirmed that ABC has picked up "Scrubs," which NBC canceled after what was supposed to be its seventh and final season. The single-camera comedy, produced by ABC Studios, would have ended its run this month, but NBC chose not to produce the final episodes."
"Now it will air in midseason at 9 p.m. Tuesdays. The run could extend to future seasons if it performs well, McPherson said. "It helps us as we're expanding our comedy franchise," McPherson said."
Are you able to add the entry back into the Scrubs article? I'm still a newbie. http://www.latimes.com/entertainment/la-et-upfronts14-2008may14,0,3549448.story

Every now and then I'll find some interesting info about various railroad stations, even those in parts of the country(and world) that I've never been to. I don't know if you skipped over it or not, but railroad-related subjects are one of my interests.

It is not true that he is the only Zoltán Kiss on the wikipedia: Zoltán Kiss (born 1986). Even both of them are football players, both are playing in the Hungarian first division, etc. I think moving Zoltán Kiss back to Zoltán Kiss (born 1980) is necessary. --gabute (talk) 08:40, 16 July 2008 (UTC)

Re. vandalism warnings
Please be careful about labelling reverted changes as vandalism, as you did here. You also left a message on the editor's talk page, identifying the change as vandalism. The user attempted to change the order of the names, and made some technical errors that could have been fixed. I don't know his reason for this change, but there is nothing here to indicate vandalism. Please change the talk page message to remove the accusation. --A Knight Who Says Ni (talk) 16:55, 20 October 2008 (UTC)

Dale Jr, Concord, Kannapolis
I'll try to find the local Concord/Kannapolis paper announcing Jr.'s birth (in October 1974 that would have been The Daily Independent for Kannapolis), but my current source is http://www.answers.com/topic/dale-earnhardt-jr, which contradicts some of the information from the Wikipedia links about the Earnhardts' birthplaces. My real source is my own experience growing up in Kannapolis, and I don't mean to pick a fight. I'm just curious about where Jr. was born, given that he could have been born in a Charlotte or Mooresville hospital as easily as the Concord hospital (called Cannon Memorial Hospital, at the time). I reinstated the birth city, but I'll be interested in seeing whether anyone finds a better source. Curious given that Wikipedia appears to be repeating a mistake from a NASCAR publication.

THE FIVE DOCTORS (not forgetting THE TWO DOCTORS and THE THREE DOCTORS and TIME CRASH)
I agree to "Other actors have also played the Doctor, though rarely more than once (see the list of actors who have played the Doctor). The actors who played the First, Second, Third, and Fourth Doctors also appeared in 1983 in The Five Doctors special." which was incomplete, being changed to:
"There have been instances where actors have returned at later dates to reprise the role of their specific doctor. In 1973's The Three Doctors, William Hartnell and Patrick Troughton returned alongside Jon Pertwee. For 1983's The Five Doctors, Troughton and Pertwee returned to star with Peter Davison, while Hartnell and Tom Baker were shown in archive footage. Patrick Troughton again returned in 1985's The Two Doctors with Colin Baker. Finally, Peter Davison returned in 2007's Children in Need short "Time Crash" alongside David Tennant. There have also been instances where another actor has filled in when the original individual has been unavailable, such as when Richard Hurndall played the First Doctor in The Five Doctors. For more information, see the list of actors who have played the Doctor."
Although the final sentence can still be worded better in my opinion; William Hartnell was more than unavailable (he was dead) and Richard Hurndall did more than fill in; in that he played the role to the extent that he is featured on the covers of both the BBC video and the DVD! NO other actor has ever fulfilled such a prominent part in Doctor Who by playing The Doctor! (The article was seriously wrong by not including a direct reference to Richard Hurndall in 1983.) Adding all the other actors' later appearences (but outside of the panel) is a very good idea.
But by all means stick with the original content of the panel, if this revised wording is added.

The Last Starfighter / Heather Locklear
I'm moderately new to Wikipedia, so I didn't know how else to contact you. I'm having a problem with your removal of some material I added to The Last Starfighter page. I believe I only added that Heather Locklear played the alien that showed Alex around upon his arrival at the base. I'm not sure why you felt it necessary to remove that. It's true. It's certainly not damaging or inflammatory. I'm curious who appointed you judge, jury and executioner over such trivial, and non-threatening, information.Twinsdude (talk) 18:07, 5 April 2009 (UTC)twinsdude

Knights of Columbus page
Since I saw your name on the talk page for Knights of Columbus I thought you might be interested. It is currently up for Feature Article Review and right now most of the votes are to remove it for IMHO minor reasons. Just figured you might me interested in commenting.

Re: St. Louis Rams/Cardinals
Someone created articles at the titles starting with "Saint" in 2001, then a couple years later, another editor moved them by cut and paste to titles starting with "St.", so I had to do a history merge on both articles to put the two parts of the edit histories back together again.

Apology
Hi, Umrguy42
I apologize for my behavior in regard to recent events. I was terrible to you and others.
I understand that I was misguided, acting under the impression that I'm just sticking to Wikipedia policies, having forgotten two of the most important rules here: Assuming good faith in others and not being zealous to the point other goals are lost.
For that I'm sorry. I promise I never do that again. (At least I try... I hope it has not become a habit.)
Again, I apologize
Best wishes, Fleet Command (talk) 09:49, 2 October 2009 (UTC)
- Hey, thanks for the apology. Not to worry, though, I didn't take anything personally, or think you're a bad person or bad editor - just someone with a difference of opinion. I'm glad we could work the situation out - I certainly didn't intend to get everyone riled up by it! :D Best wishes, and happy editing! umrguy42 16:24, 2 October 2009 (UTC)

FF7 needs you again
Tintor2 has decided to change Aeris name to Aerith. There has already been discussion and concensus that it should remain Aeris. Obvious reasons include all English versions of the game say Aeris. I would like your opinions on it please chocobogamer mine 23:58, 6 October 2009 (UTC)
- Can you show me a link to the discussion? I'm just seeing what appears to be the result not the reason.Tintor2 (talk) 16:40, 7 October 2009 (UTC)
- Like I said in the FF7 talk page: there needs to be consistency between aerith's article and FF7's article in how her name is written. Having both ways of writting her name across wikipedia will cause a lot of good faith edits from users. Having Aeris when referring quotes used in references is okay since that is what the game says, but the way Aerith/s' name is written needs to be consistent. I think we should continue in the talk page from FF7 rather than here. By the way a user said that this issue started a few years ago and still the article wasn't GA. I think the story section still needs some trimming, but I haven't been able to do to much, since I'm still replaying such game and the last time I played was various years ago. I think we should continue the discussion in the talk page from FF7. Regards.Tintor2 (talk) 19:36, 7 October 2009 (UTC)
- I don't think the in the previous FLC there were some objections regarding Aeris' name. About having "relevant explanations of the difference in the FF7 article and in the main Aerith article", there are none which why I'm confused. As far as I'm experienced I remember that wikiprojects focused in a series used to have rules that were against the ones from wikipedia (remember what happened with the pokemon articles?) and if there is no consistency with aerith/s' name (I don't what name should be used though) there will be more good faith edits to the FF articles and more reverts. Unfortunately I'm having problems with my computer and I will be a bit inactive. Regards.Tintor2 (talk) 19:56, 7 October 2009 (UTC)

There's only one reason why I've called the old Busch "The Field where the Curse of the Bambino died." In 2004, the Red Sox won the World Series at Busch Stadium, not at Fenway Park. The Red Sox had home field advantage in the World Series, because the American League won the All-Star Game and the World Series ended in a sweep. That's why I felt that the old Busch Stadium is known as "The Field the Curse of the Bambino died." SNIyer12, (talk), 21:49, 16 October 2009 (UTC)
- True, but unless it's common (and reliably sourced) that that nickname is used by more than just yourself, it's pretty much original research, and we can't use it. umrguy42 18:26, 17 October 2009 (UTC)
Your question
I have no strong opinion either way about posting the Red Sox templates at Busch Stadium. I recommend you raise this question on the talk page at WP:Baseball and see if you can get their attention. ←Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? carrots→ 00:22, 23 October 2009 (UTC)

Scrubs
OI YOU STOP MAKING THESE CHANGES TO SCRUBS. UNLIKE U IN THE USA U KNOW THE JANITORS NAME UNLIKE I FROM THE UK DONT KNOW IT SO WEN I WENT ON THE PAGE AND SAW IT RUINED THE SURPRISE OF FINDING OUT THE NAME JUS LIKE U HAD WEN U WATCHED IT. GET IT! ITS NOT FAIR. WIKIPEDIA IS FOR USERS AROUND THE WORLD NOT JUS USA SO IT WOULD BE MORE FAIRER TO THE OTHERS IF U KEPT INFORMATION OF THE MAIN PAGE. I MEAN PUTTING IT ON THE JANITORS PAGE IS FINE. USERS WOULD KNOW SUMTHIN LIKE THAT WOULD BE ON THERE BUT NOT ON THE SCRUBS MAIN PAGE WHERE U GIVE A SUMMARY OF THE CHARACTER WITH TOO MUCH INFORMATION! Swanseajack4life (talk) 16:08, 27 October 2009 (UTC)
- I'm sorry, but WP:SPOILER makes it quite clear that we don't remove information that might be a "spoiler". I'll give you a counter-example - I like Doctor Who, and have to deal with the fact that you all in the UK get to see it before I do in the US. I avoid the parts where I know there might be spoilers. Fact of life. Sorry. umrguy42 16:26, 27 October 2009 (UTC)
fact is that i too have avoided such a thing with the janitors name. i would avoid the janitors page beacuse i would know that type of info was on it but not on the scrubs main page so thats why i was disappointed to find out his name when i wanted to know during the episode like u would with ur doc who which is boring and dont like. nvm i just think it is more appoprite if stuff like the janitors name was off the main scrubs page and kept in a different page so others would know not to go on there and avoid stuff like it.

Circles of Dr. Who
Hi--would you have a look at my post at talk Dr. Who and perhaps throw something in there also? You seem most knowledgable about the series, more than I am!
Full quote of mine:
"The Language of Circles Could some expert do a short thing--I know the article is terribly long already--but I have a fascination with what appears to be the Time Lord alphabet/language. I noted this writing on documents near Timothy Dalton in "The End of Time", recall it from a few VERY early episodes decades ago, and on eBay there is a "Dr. Who" ring with these same beautiful symbols. As an iconologist, I'd love to know where that came from and if there's any sort of story behind it.76.195.83.35 (talk) 11:32, 3 January 2010 (UTC)
Retrieved from "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Doctor_Who"
By the way, I see you like Tolkien, so I ask whether you know of a good biography and whether you have read any of his work in philology (a field of mine but not in Prof. Tolkien's languages).76.195.83.35 (talk) 11:38, 3 January 2010 (UTC) Sorry, jumping back in to ask if you can reply at Dr. Who's talk page. That will be sufficient.76.195.83.35 (talk) 11:40, 3 January 2010 (UTC)
