Red Dwarf edit

Just asking about the link you removed from Red Dwarf page, i believe that the link isn't to copyrighted material, it is out of copyright as being less than a certain time it is allowed. Also it follows Google Video's rules for copyright violation. 86.129.89.52 13:44, 2 May 2006 (UTC)Reply

Hmm. I'm really not sure how clips from the pilot, however brief, can be classed as not breaking copyright. NBC own the rights to the pilot, and the makers of the Red Dwarf DVDs have stated how expensive it was to obtain the rights to show even the briefest of clips on the "Dwarfin' USA" documentary. Furthermore, I wasn't sure how the clip was particularly relevant to the Wiki entry. If you feel it is (a) relevant and (b) qualifies as fair use rather than breaching copyright, I'd suggest discussing it on the entry's talk page in an attempt to reach a consensus. Seb
No, i doubt it is 100% legal, i had no idea it was expensive for GNP to get hold of the clips. I think best to leave it. 86.129.89.52 13:44, 2 May 2006 (UTC)Reply

Hamish and Mouse edit

I've created a brief article on this strip in its own right, which expands a bit on the section on the RotR page. Hopefully I'll be able to add a little bit more and also add some images if I'm able to get my old RotR comics back.... ChrisTheDude 13:51, 8 June 2006 (UTC)Reply

Tommy's Troubles edit

Yeah, that was probably my favourite RotR strip back then, like you say it's a shame there's so little web presence for these stories, I'd have thought more people had nostalgia for them. I'm thinking of doing an article on Johnny Dexter next, that'll probably finish off the coverage of the "classics" of RotR (except maybe for those later ones you mention, but I had stopped reading it by then...). I've now been reunited with my old RotR annuals, courtesy of my parents, but it seems like the comics themselves are now lining a landfill somewhere, which is a shame.....

Damon Hill edit

Hey Seb! - Thanks for the comments on the Damon Hill peer review...it's now up for an FA, please can you show your support, please? --Skully Collins 08:05, 30 June 2006 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for the support and your understanding overthe lack of images :) --Skully Collins 10:24, 30 June 2006 (UTC)Reply
No problem. As I mentioned, there was a bit of work that needed doing language-wise (including over-repetition of certain phrases, especially in the lead), and the section on his post-F1 career was a bit of a mess in places (especially the Pizza Hut and Jenson Button bits). But I've tidied those up the best I could, and I think as it stands it's got a decent shout. Not sure how much other support you'll get, as FAC voters are notoriously stingy and will always find something to pick at, but for me it's comprehensive enough and the career biography, especially, flows well. Seb Patrick 10:34, 30 June 2006 (UTC)Reply
Yeah...Personally I'd just bit satisfied that it's better then the Schumacher article. --Skully Collins 10:39, 30 June 2006 (UTC)Reply

The new FAR/FARC process edit

Hi Seb

I noticed your excellent contributions to Roy of the Rovers on the FAC page, and wondered whether you'd be interested in dropping into WP:FAR occasionally (or often) to encourage, prod, critique, and—when the crunch comes—to declare "Keep" or "Remove". Your interests in popular culture and the media would be a bonus on top of your editing skills.

The new FAR process is now being swamped with nominations (currently 23 in FAR and 13 in FARC), and the four or five regulars are finding it difficult to service the needs of such a large process. The ideal is to encourage the guardians of the many substandard FAs to fix them; sometimes this happens, but all too often, a nomination is met with disinterest by those you'd have thought would be keen.

The contribution of more good reviewers there, particularly those who are focused on good writing, would have a powerful impact on the FA culture in WP.

Goal Timings edit

What is your source for goal timings on the Liverpool FC page? Thanks.--Franchecomté 18:05, 2 August 2006 (UTC)Reply

I've got a video of the ITV footage as it was broadcast. Even though the timings themselves may not be the official times (as it's ITV's own clock), the gap between them is surely still constant. I know there's debate over the whole "six/seven minutes" thing, but I just went back and watched it, and clocked the exact number of minutes/seconds between the two goals crossing the line.

An FAC edit

In case you've got some time to glance over it, I've got (video game music composer) Frank Klepacki sitting in FAC. I blew a tire from working on it seven or eight hours yesterday, so my strategic distance is toast. I'll probably do some kind of hardcopy or reference-less copyediting today, but I'm asking for assistance on a few talk pages just in case. Thanks for considering. --Zeality 15:35, 26 August 2006 (UTC)Reply

List of beat 'em ups undeletion request edit

I have nominated List of beat 'em ups to be undeleted, under the reasoning that it is not redundant to the category; it contains many games which are not covered by the category, and may never be able to be covered by it. In addition, the list can do more than the category. It can put date, developer, release date, system, et al., useful especially for articles that would be difficult to create an article for. I hope that you will vote on this and hopefully support its undeletion, on the basis that it does something that makes it not redundant to the category.

Concerning Red Dwaf— Isn't 1999 minus 1988 eleven years? edit

Hi Mr. Patrick: How I stubbled on your Wikipedia article I don't even remember— I think I was Wiki-ing Craig Ferguson or something— (I'm an an American, so I'm not even familiar with the series Red Dwarf— sorry. But anyway, at the beginning of your article you write: "Red Dwarf is a British science fiction sitcom that ran for eight series, from 1988 to 1999". Now math is my achilles heel, and not to be a wise aas, but Isn't 1999 minus 1988 eleven years?

Thanks for uploading Image:Melchester badge.png. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read carefully the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content and then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template.

Fair use rationale for Image:Red Dwarf IWCD.jpg edit

 

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Red Dwarf IWCD.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Melchester badge.png edit

Thank you for uploading Image:Melchester badge.png. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this image under "fair use" may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content.

Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a fair use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for images used under the fair use policy require both a copyright tag and a fair use rationale.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it might be deleted by adminstrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion.

Deletion of section at George Clarke (architect) edit

I am disappointed to see that you characterised the section I wrote concerning his personal probity as "doesn't seem particularly relevant to biography". It's a memorialisation of how Fake News was created in real time by a reporter, then picked up within hours and repeated by other media that are supposedly reliable sources, the type that are are deemed by WP convention to have vetted such leads as objective and accurate. Clearly this was not the case. It's fully referenced and written in WP:NPOV, IMO. The only thing I disagree with is the analogy of a falling child with a bowling ball, but a bag of taters probably wouldn't have provided as much sensationalism for the BBC video - mass-concentration and air-resistance probably would have made minimal difference.

I am interested to know how someone who appears to be a full-time professional writer only performed two actions in five months including deleting this section? How/why did you arrive at this article? As we clearly have polarised views on what is appropriate WP content, I have restored the section and placed a new Talk section where you can continue this, and where other editors can see and comment. This would be the first stage in any content-dispute, as I'm sure you will be aware. No-one else has commented or complained.

I am around WP only spasmodically mostly performing maintenance edits and I now write prose only as a last resort (ie - when I consider it imperative, as with this instance), so have only just seen your deletion when checking recent changes. Compliments of the Season to you.--Rocknrollmancer (talk) 02:32, 29 December 2019 (UTC)Reply
