Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that your username may not meet Wikipedia's username policy because the use of "loser" and "jay" might suggest you are trying to insult someone. If you believe that your username does not violate our policy, please leave a note here explaining why. As an alternative, you may file for a change of username, or you may simply create a new account and use that for editing. Thank you. Daniel Case (talk) 15:14, 31 October 2009 (UTC)Reply

Could you please explain your username as per the above? If you continue to edit without doing so another admin may feel compelled to block you, at least temporarily. Daniel Case (talk) 14:06, 1 November 2009 (UTC)Reply


hi, I choose to use this user name because that was my nick name in high school back in 1999, no I am not offending or insulting anyone. if you want more information about my user name let me know, i will be happy to answer any more questions.

OK, not a problem. The consensus at WP:UAA was that it was OK if you weren't editing disruptively. Carry on. Daniel Case (talk) 15:07, 2 November 2009 (UTC)Reply

Signing your posts edit

Heyo, I just wanted to let you know that after your write something on a talk page, you can just type "~~~~" at the end and it will automatically put your name and date for you. Anyways, welcome to wikipedia. Everything isn't as difficult as this requirements thing is turning out to be, so don't get too discouraged. --TorsodogTalk 22:02, 2 November 2009 (UTC) Also, please don't bold your posts. People just don't do that here and it is unnecessary. If you have any other questions, let me know. --TorsodogTalk 22:06, 2 November 2009 (UTC)Reply

Ya, it's pretty much the only way of editing. It is confusing at first, but if you do it enough, you'll remember it all eventually. This Cheatsheet helped me out when I first started. Take a look, maybe it will help you too! --TorsodogTalk 22:15, 2 November 2009 (UTC)Reply

Nocturne edit

Almost every aspect of the trivia section is unverified and challenged since February 2008. It's nearly February 2010. There is no reason to keep it, and using capital letters doesn't make you right. DurinsBane87 (talk) 19:18, 4 November 2009 (UTC)Reply

Tonight Show with Jay Leno edit

Per the WP:CRYSTAL policy, we cannot assume what the new title of Jay Leno's Tonight Show might be. It could be called "The Tonight Show starring Jay Leno", or it could retain the same title as the 1992–2009 version. Until a press release or a reliable news source confirms what the exact title of the 2010 show will be, we cannot create a new article for the 2010 version. If, for example, the show is called a new name like "The Tonight Show starring Jay Leno", then we can create a new article with that title for the 2010 incarnation. If the title remains the same, we can create a new article titled "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno (2010 TV series)", and rename the currently existing article to "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno (1992 TV series)", with the namespace for The Tonight Show with Jay Leno becoming a disambiguation page. But we cannot do anything in regard to this until more information about the title of the 2010 series is revealed, because for now it's all speculation. Please be patient, we will certainly address the issue when appropriate. — CIS (talk | stalk) 05:55, 10 February 2010 (UTC)Reply

Loserjay10, The Tonight Show with Jay Leno is merging as I type. The 1992 page is back to its original namespace and the 2010 page will be removed and redirected tonight at 8:00pm ET. Let me be clear, I am doing everything in my ability to make sure that nothing from the show's original history is removed. Rewording is necessary, but the information will to the best of my power remain. If you have any questions for me personally, my talk page is always open.

Colors in television infoboxes edit

With edits like this, [1], per Template:Infobox television, all television shows should be the same color because what one editor thinks is the "more appropriate for the show", another editor might think another color is the more appropriate for the show and that falls into personal opinion.

Bear Grylls edit

No I'm not kidding you. How is IMDb a reliable source for biographical content when most of its content is user-submitted? There have been several discussions about the use of IMDb at Wikipedia talk:Identifying reliable sources and WP:RSN and the general consensus seems to be that IMDb is not reliable for BLP info. Edit warring is unhelpful. If the Isle of Wight is correct as you say then you should have no problem finding another source. Barret (talk) 12:45, 2 September 2010 (UTC)Reply

Disambiguation link notification for August 19 edit

Hi. When you recently edited Nissan Silvia, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Fukushima and Iwaki (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). 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.

ArbCom elections are now open! edit

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process.

This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
