Favor

Hey, I was wondering if I can ask a favor from you? On Maura West's page, I added the part that she earned an Emmy nomination for GH but I am not sure if it is written nicely and gramactically corect. Therefore, can you check it over for me? Here it is, ″West's portrayal of Ava, has been met with critical acclaim, having garnered her the nomination for the Daytime Emmy Award for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series in 2015, this is her sixth nomination in this category, but her first for her role on General Hospital″. I would really much appreciate it! Thanks!  — SoapFan12 (talk, contribs) 21:15, 3 April 2015 (UTC)

Sandy Hill

Livelikemusic. I cannot remember what the decision was about Sandy Hill being listed on the GMA article; do you remember? Morningtv13 was blocked and has created multiple accounts (Which have all been blocked), but he re-added her with references. What's your take? Do we leave her or do we remover her. Personally, I think only those with articles should be listed, but the guidelines say otherwise. Corky | Chat? 19:08, 6 April 2015 (UTC)

@Corkythehornetfan: I cannot recall, either. If she's a host (a.k.a. anchor) than she should be included; if not, then she should not. And yes, Morningtv13 will likely continue to re-establish their identity.

Alrighty, thanks! Corky | Chat? 23:01, 7 April 2015 (UTC)

@Corkythehornetfan: If Sandy is not an anchor, then she should be excluded from the inofobox. Though, I don't avidly watch Good Morning America any longer, and have not since the departure of Diane Sawyer. I only watch if a musical artist I enjoy appears on the programme. livelikemusic ^{my talk page!} 23:05, 7 April 2015 (UTC)

Sandy was an anchor back in the late 70s-80s I think. I'd have to look at the sources they provided. Corky | Chat? 23:13, 7 April 2015 (UTC)

@Corkythehornetfan: Wow.... I just saw the edit-history of the GMA article and "WOW" is all I can muster to say! livelikemusic ^{my talk page!} 23:15, 7 April 2015 (UTC)

Yep... I was pretty speechless too when s/he started that mess. Corky | Chat? 23:28, 7 April 2015 (UTC)

@Corkythehornetfan: It's disappointing, especially in them throwing around the word "retarded" as some sort of insult. livelikemusic ^{my talk page!} 23:38, 7 April 2015 (UTC)

Yeah, shows you the kind of person they are in real life. There are definitely plenty of other words that could have been used! Corky | Chat? 00:30, 8 April 2015 (UTC)

@Corkythehornetfan: At least others are now aware of how disruptive they are in their editing [patterns], and it won't become an issue any further. livelikemusic ^{my talk page!} 00:32, 8 April 2015 (UTC)

"Plainlist"

Hi! I saw your edit to the Days page where you added "plainlist" etc... and wanted to ask: What does that mean? I see that quite a bit but, have no idea why? I'm not asking because I don't think you should have done it, please don't take this that way, I'm honestly just curious because the end result between how I did it and how you just did it looks the same to me so wondered what the difference is? Is there a reason behind it and should I start doing things that way from now on? I'm just sorta stumped. Thanks in advance.Cebr1979 (talk) 23:00, 7 April 2015 (UTC)

@Cebr1979: Per {{Infobox television}}, it is preferred to use {{Plainlist}} instead of the "BR" code, as it is a cleaner and more translatable code. livelikemusic ^{my talk page!} 23:05, 7 April 2015 (UTC)

Ah! Thank you!!Cebr1979 (talk) 23:07, 7 April 2015 (UTC)

Courtney

Me again! this has been posted where the actress states "this isn't the end" but, then says "goodbye for now." So... we'll see her again but not for awhile??? Sort of contradictory. Should we remove her from the current cast list or wait and see?Cebr1979 (talk) 23:27, 7 April 2015 (UTC)

@Cebr1979: I think the "goodbye for now" was more-so to her fans, by stating this won't be the final time she appears on-screen on a television series. I think we should wait for the upcoming issue of Soap Opera Digest, they were the ones to official confirm that Atkinson would continue shooting as Austin; they might give the same tidbit about Kelli's role with Courtney. livelikemusic ^{my talk page!} 23:38, 7 April 2015 (UTC)

Agreed!Cebr1979 (talk) 10:37, 8 April 2015 (UTC)

Discography sections

I partially reverted this edit you made to Azealia Banks. The discography section is not exclusive to studio albums but any major works, which may often be only studio albums. In this case, 1991 (EP) seems to qualify as a major work. Dan56 (talk) 18:54, 10 April 2015 (UTC)

So many IPs

So this person is back. What can be done about someone who constantly makes the same disruptive edits over and over again but, uses so many different IPs?Cebr1979 (talk) 22:29, 11 April 2015 (UTC)

Jackie

ASCAP is a searchable database. Performer - type Ciara - Click Ciara, you'll see all her songs. ASCAP is a reputable source in the music industry. All of my other sources are Rap-Up and "I Bet"'s credits are already confirmed. Before reverting, can you check to see what you're doing. We you revert, you add Jamal Jones as writer for Fly - but thats not sourced or confirm. So please check my sources and then manually edit if needed, because I took out some unsourced content.MobFlash (talk) 19:11, 25 April 2015 (UTC)

@MobFlash: Unfortunately, you have to link directly to the information; you cannot assume people know how to search. Until the specific link to the specific information is added, it's continued as original research. Also, bare links are not allowed on Wikipedia, you must properly cite your sources. As well, the second single cannot be in the infobox, as that is a clear violation of the crystal ball policy, as its release is not definite. livelikemusic ^{my talk page!} 00:49, 28 April 2015 (UTC)

Recurring actors upped to contract status

Hi! Question for you: Both Judi Evans and Mary Beth Evans have been upped to contract status with Days. Since they are "returning" to contract status, do we add them to the "Returning" section of the cast members list or, since they are already in the "recurring" section, do we just leave them there until their contract episodes begin to air? Thanks in advance.Cebr1979 (talk) 20:31, 30 April 2015 (UTC)

@Cebr1979: If there are reliable sources for their being upped to contract, then they should automatically be put into the "Main" portion of the cast list. livelikemusic ^{my talk page!} 00:47, 1 May 2015 (UTC)

Reverting talk comment?

Whoa, that's how you treat a fellow editor? -- reverting (not just deleting...) a comment that was not intended to be offensive (and again with no explanation in the edit summary). I was trying to be informative and helpful. What you did was disrespectful. --Musdan77 (talk) 20:49, 1 May 2015 (UTC)

@Musdan77: Any removal of comments left for me on my talk page is of my own choice, with or without reasoning. I do apologize if it offended you, however, my editing The Voice (U.S. TV series) hadn't been finished yet. And given the suspect information I was removing, and have done on previous edits before, I simply did not feel stating that a suspected sock-puppet through IP was warranted. livelikemusic ^{my talk page!} 21:36, 1 May 2015 (UTC)

I just ask that you try to think about how your actions might affect others. It's one thing if you're dealing with anonymous IPs or known vandals or something like that, but it's another if it's another experienced editor. We're here to work together, not make enemies. --Musdan77 (talk) 02:20, 2 May 2015 (UTC)

Cher Lloyd

Hi! Question for you. On Cher Lloyd's page, it mentions that she has been dropped from her label and is working on her third studio album. The first four references are speculation, rather than solid information, but reference 54 is a solid lead into this matter. And the page to reference 53 has been deleted. So may the first four references be removed? Thank you for your time and input. Ilovechristianmusic (talk) 22:56, 2 May 2015 (UTC)ilovechristianmusic

NOW: Volume 1, 2015

Hello again! Thanks for patrolling "NOW: Volume 1, 2015". I linked a reference from iTunes that gives the complete information of this album, so how is it not referenced? Ilovechristianmusic (talk) 02:08, 18 May 2015 (UTC)ilovechristianmusic

Reverting Coach Table on the Voice

I would like to understand why you reverted my most recent change to The Voice coach timeline. I understand that the first revert was because season 9 is unconfirmed, although I pulled that information off of the season 9 page. I admit and apologize for not checking references pointing to any press release before making the update to the table.

However, nowhere on this page is there a concise view that shows the winning coach throughout the history of the series, and I believe that adding this level of detail is an improvement to the page. Let me know if there is some better way to convey this in the table. --Mll1013 (talk) 00:08, 23 May 2015 (UTC)

@Mll1013: Just because another page does have that information does not mean it is reliable information and someone who has been editing on Wikipedia off-and-on since 2005 should be aware of that. And yes, there is a "concise view" of the winning coaches. as dictated in the page's series overview. The judges' timeline does not need to specifically state who the winning coach is. As such, it shouldn't be about which coach won a season; it should be about the contestant who won. livelikemusic ^{my talk page!} 00:13, 23 May 2015 (UTC)

True, I have been on wiki since 2005, but it is certainly more off than on, as you can see from my scant contributions. I applaud those, like yourself, who have contributed to wikipedia and who help ensure its integrity. I did see the series overview table, but I personally did not see that as a concise view. It is a jumble of colors that requires decoding the color key one by one in order to assess the winning coach. OTOH, the timeline table seems like a better place to quickly determine the order and number of wins by each coach. I appreciate that the main focus of The Voice should be about the artist, but I think it's hard to refute that the producers feed on the "game within the game", based on the competitive drive of the coaches, and I trust that there are viewers who are engaged by this element of the show. I would hope that you might reconsider allowing the inclusion a more concise view of this as stated, whether it is in the timeline or some other section is insignificant. Thanks, again, for your contributions! Mll1013 (talk) 00:27, 23 May 2015 (UTC)

@Mll1013: Unfortunately, it isn't about what you "personally" did or did not see; the table used for the coaches' timeline is the standard of use for what it is portraying, and the series overview is where the detail of breakdown between contestants and coaches belong within the article. And you need not "decode" by colour as one of the parameters of the table is that of "Winning coach", which therefore eliminations your argument for adding said-information elsewhere. The colours are merely to associate team, not winner or non-winner. livelikemusic ^{my talk page!} 00:40, 23 May 2015 (UTC)

Can you please explain what you mean by "wrong citation on Soaps She Knows", because I'm not sure what that is in reference to. --IJBall (talk) 00:36, 31 May 2015 (UTC)

present tense for fictional characters

Can you please tell me where it is that says fictional characters need to be present tense? I cant remember and I have a editor who just doesn't understand.Cebr1979 (talk) 20:39, 1 June 2015 (UTC)

Rogers/Weston

I e-mailed you but, thinking about it now, that was pointless when I could have just asked you here...

In regards to Ben on Days, I feel like I should ask a quick question in case I'm doing something wrong...

You always seem to be on the ball with that show so, having said that, is Ben Rogers now going by Ben Weston? I won't have time to get caught up on that show until Monday (and even that's only a maybe) and am just wondering if I should stop reverting all the 'Rogers to Weston' edits?

Thanks in advance!Cebr1979 (talk) 02:17, 6 June 2015 (UTC)

@Cebr1979: Ben changed his name to Weston, yes, but the character should remain "Ben Rogers" per the common-name policy, as the bulk of his history is under "Ben Rogers". Changing his name last month does not negate the months of writing under the Rogers surname. livelikemusic ^{my talk page!} 12:20, 6 June 2015 (UTC)

K, good. That's what I was thinking too.Cebr1979 (talk) 20:31, 6 June 2015 (UTC)

@Livelikemusic: I am doing great, thank you very much. I believe you forgot to sign your comment. Also would like your opinion on the other discussion below the one I made. I just want to stop an edit war. Jester66 (talk) 03:15, 8 June 2015 (UTC)
