Spaces and Boston Legal episodes

Speedy deletion of Guantanamo by the Bay (Boston Legal)
editA tag has been placed on Guantanamo by the Bay (Boston Legal) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a blatant copyright infringement [of http://www.tv.com/boston-legal/guantanamo-by-the-bay/episode/1026569/summary.html]. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.
If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must include on the external site the statement "I, (name), am the author of this article, (article name), and I release its content under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2 and later." You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}}
to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. • Gene93k (talk) 09:37, 18 September 2008 (UTC)
Copyright infringement
editPlease do not add copyrighted material to Wikipedia without permission from the copyright holder, as you did to Guantanamo by the Bay (Boston Legal).

You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing. • Gene93k (talk) 09:40, 18 September 2008 (UTC)

Zack and Miri Make a Porno
editHi. Thanks for adding the Rotten Tomatoes info to the article. In the future, however, please make sure to cite the source in the text more explicitly (in this case, a link to the RT page). Not doing this violates Wikipedia's Verifiability policy. Another editor deleted the material because you didn't do this, but I went to RT and added the link myself, and restored the material. Thanks. Nightscream (talk) 04:10, 25 October 2008 (UTC)

June 2009
editI thought I would reply and explain how things work. Other than the big PPV's (WrestleMania and Bound for Glory), we don't create articles for PPV's until about 2 months before the event. That means no article for Breaking Point should exist yet. When it does come time for an article, it will be at "WWE Breaking Point", not "Breaking Point (2009)" (since there has not been any other WWE event called Breaking Point). TJ Spyke 03:24, 29 June 2009 (UTC)
Ok, thanks, I only named it 2009 because it will carry on Uforgiven's lineage and also because all the other pay per views have been changed by year. Also, I would hope users to consider creating the page again, as it gives people information on the upcoming PPV. I wanted to know about it, and thus researched and thought it could be shared with others. Where's the harm? I hope you and other users will think about it. Thanks
- Please remember to sign your posts. The event will get an article eventually, probably in mid to late July. The basic reason is that the article would have no information other than the location. Right now the Unforgiven article contains the same information that would be in the Breaking Point article. TJ Spyke 03:33, 29 June 2009 (UTC)
Survivor Series
editIt doesn't make any sense. The match can be added to the article provided that has been formalized at the official website. Those are the rules. Archibald Leitch (talk) 13:38, 30 October 2009 (UTC)
January 2010
editPlease do not add content without citing verifiable and reliable sources, as you did to Royal Rumble (2010). Before making any potentially controversial edits, it is recommended that you discuss them first on the article's talk page. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. See the article talkpage. TJ Spyke 01:04, 14 January 2010 (UTC)
Please do not add unsourced or original content, as you did to Genesis (2010). Doing so violates Wikipedia's verifiability policy. If you continue to do so, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. TJ Spyke 01:35, 14 January 2010 (UTC)
- A few things. First, when linking to the British newspaper, write [[The Sun (newspaper)|The Sun]] ([[The Sun]]</nowiki]] redirects to <nowiki>[[Sun]]. The Sun also goes in the Work field, not the Publisher slot. Finally, see Wikipedia:WikiProject Professional wrestling/Style guide#Manual of Style (MoS) for how PPV articles should be formatted. TJ Spyke 18:01, 30 January 2010 (UTC)
Rotten Tomatoes
editPlease follow the sentences' wording for Rotten Tomatoes and Metacritic at WP:RTMC. The rating systems need to be explained accurately. Thanks! Erik (talk | contribs) 13:31, 17 January 2011 (UTC)
- Please read the above essay for wording of Rotten Tomatoes and Metacritic. Erik (talk | contribs) 00:10, 31 January 2011 (UTC)
Okay will do although I must argue that the "official wording" is inaccurate as the % is not so much a score, but rather a percentage of positive reviews. Score implies an individual or group simply awarded the number whereas Rotten Tomatoes actually reports the percentage, its an aggregate.
- I reverted you on Priest (2011 film). Rotten Tomatoes gives the film a score based on its own determinations; it doesn't happen to have the percentage that it shares with everyone. Erik (talk | contribs) 11:12, 26 May 2011 (UTC)
December 2013
editHello, I'm BracketBot. I have automatically detected that your edit to Hostages (TV series) may have broken the syntax by modifying 2 "[]"s and 2 "{}"s likely mistaking one for another. If you have, don't worry: just edit the page again to fix it. If I misunderstood what happened, or if you have any questions, you can leave a message on my operator's talk page.
- List of unpaired brackets remaining on the page:
- premise and handsome production values, but its twisty plot sometimes strains credulity.'<ref>[[cite web |url=http://www.rottentomatoes.com/tv/hostages/ | title=Hostages: Season 1 Reviews |
