Welcome

Hello ShawnHill, and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are a few good links for newcomers:

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and vote pages using three tildes, like this: ~~~. Four tildes (~~~~) produces your name and the current date. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. Again, welcome!

Ronald20

Regarding your remarks made on the Talk page for Ronald20: Although his editing style can be quite frustrating, you should not have expressed your feelings in the way that you did. I suggest that you review Wikipedia:Civility and Wikipedia:No personal attacks.

FYI: Ronald20 is a young editor who probably has some sort of learning difficulty, or maybe a behavioral problem such as OCD or Asperger's. Although editors with these conditions may cause problems on the Wikipedia, there are also other editors with the same conditions who are making valued contributions to the Wikipedia. Recently there have been a number of editors who are trying to improve the situation with Ronald20, and he does seem to doing better with his recent edits. If you still think that his editing is unacceptable, your next step would be to file a Request for comments on him. BlankVerse ∅ 04:31, 9 August 2005 (UTC)

If that's truly the case, then my apologies to him. I think I remember glancing over a comment that this particular person has a learning disability. However, I feel that if each page is already edited to conform to a certain standard of quality, then he should leave well enough alone. The way I and maybe others see it, Ronald is doing these edits just for the sake of doing them. I can certainly appreicate if someone comes behind me and makes proper corrections to my contributions, but when someone else comes around and basically ruins the hard work you've accomplished, then there is some just cause to be frustrated. I can understand that he, and along with other editors, have made valuable contributions, but that's not the point. My point is simply is that I don't appreicate anymore ruining the work I take my valuable time of doing, nothing against him personally.--ShawnHill 18:03, August 9, 2005 (UTC)

The best way that I've found to deal with Ronald20's edits is to try to lead by example. For example, when I make a correction of one of his edits, I try not to just do a knee-jeck revert, but will also try to do some wikification, or add more info, or do some copy-editing. He does do good edits (besides the odd ones, like when he adds stub tags to large articles and removes them from small ones), and many of his good edits seem to be from following the examples of other editors.

You also need to be careful not to confuse the edits by Ronald20 (including the two sets of IP ranges that he also edits from as an anon) with some of the other anons that are also doing problematic edits to radio station and TV station articles. There is, for example, someone editing from AOL that is adding large amounts of confusingly written background history, even though the current info on the station may only be a couple of lines.

User page edit

• I apologize for editing your user page without leaving you a note explaining the edit. I was using AWB to automatically fix redirected wiki links. However, you may want to review Wikipedia:User page for the policy on this issue: "Pages in user space still do belong to the community", "Other users may edit pages in your user space", "It is considered polite to avoid substantially editing another's user page" (emphasis added). --taestell 19:15, 2 November 2006 (UTC)

License tagging for Image:Fsn Houston.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Fsn Houston.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

• Wikipedia:Image use policy
• Wikipedia:Image copyright tags

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 22:07, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

Template:Los Angeles Lakers franchise

Hello, you did a great job creating the above mentioned template. I just had to re-create that template at {{Los Angeles Lakers}} to be consistent with other similar templates. Now, I'd like you, as a creator, to put "{{speedy}}" tag at {{Los Angeles Lakers franchise}}. We're not going to need two identical templates.--Crzycheetah 19:01, 13 May 2008 (UTC)

Re:NBA team templates

Nxt time you want to make one of these templates, just put ?redirect=no next to the template name. For example, if you want to make one for the Memphis Grizzlies, type in Template:Memphis Grizzlies, you'll see the roster, but in the address bar it will say Template:Memphis Grizzlies, you just need to add ?redirect=no and you'll get Template:Memphis Grizzlies?redirect=no, then hit the "enter" button. I hope it didn't sound complicated.--Crzycheetah 19:10, 29 May 2008 (UTC)

License tagging for File:Prospect Studios gate.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Prospect Studios gate.jpg. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information; to add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia.

For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 22:11, 20 December 2008 (UTC)

Replaceable fair use File:Clippers exec Gillian Zucker.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Clippers exec Gillian Zucker.jpg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:

1. Go to the file description page and add the text {{di-replaceable fair use disputed|<your reason>}} below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing <your reason> with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
2. On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Fut.Perf. ☼ 07:59, 18 August 2015 (UTC)

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. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. 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.

June 2016

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Template:30 for 30. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been or will be undone.

• If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, please discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant notice boards.
• If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, please seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive. Continual disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. Please read the documentation at WP:NAV#Properties for proper formatting of nav box templates. Thank you.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/NBC Sports Live Extra until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. Adam9007 (talk) 22:56, 7 January 2017 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. We welcome and appreciate your contributions, including your edits to Media in Los Angeles, but we cannot accept original research. Original research refers to material—such as facts, allegations, ideas, and personal experiences—for which no reliable, published sources exist; it also encompasses combining published sources in a way to imply something that none of them explicitly say. Please be prepared to cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. Your info seems to be good, but where did you get it? We need some WP:Reliable sources. If you don't know how to the citations, just tell what they are on the Talk page and somebody will be along to insert them for you. BeenAroundAWhile (talk) 05:59, 2 February 2017 (UTC)

Please do not add original research or novel syntheses of published material to articles as you apparently did to Media in Los Angeles. Please cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. Please cite your sources, as mentioned above. BeenAroundAWhile (talk) 04:22, 7 February 2017 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Howard Leeds

The article Howard Leeds has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Obit for non-notable individual.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. reddogsix (talk) 01:08, 3 March 2017 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for March 10

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Howard Leeds, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page The Queen and I. 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.

KABC-TV

My edit to KABC-TV was correct. WP:NOTDIRECTORY. We only need a list of NOTABLE on air staff. ACMEDeputy (talk) 13:33, 7 November 2017 (UTC)

I honestly couldn't care less about the notable people list, whether it stays or not...argue with someone else about that. My main edit was to correct the year KABC-TV went on the air. ShawnHill 18:44, 7 November 2017 (UTC)

I reverted to the edit with the correct year but I reverted the on air staff to the last good edit before one other user added the full on air staff. I already told him about the WP:NOTDIRECTORY and WP:NOTTVGUIDE. ACMEDeputy (talk) 21:21, 7 November 2017 (UTC)

Dave Grusin revert

You added unsourced material to the Dave Grusin entry. Is that correct?Vmavanti (talk) 19:28, 9 January 2018 (UTC)

Yep...it's correct. Search for it for yourself if you don't believe me. For some stupid reason, Wiki doesn't allow (or discourages) YouTube links, because there's where the real proof is. ShawnHill 21:28, 9 January 2018 (UTC)

No, I'm not going to search for it. I've got plenty to do. You understand that I have no qualms about deleting unsourced material. I'm sure you know that one of pillars of Wikipedia is to use sourced material with citations. As to your question about YouTube, there are many possible reasons why it's considered bad source. One, most of the material on YouTube is copyrighted or in violation of copyright. Two, anyone can contribute to YouTube, which means it relies on user-generated content.
–Vmavanti (talk) 23:37, 9 January 2018 (UTC)

Fair enough, self-appointed moderator...I have plenty to do as well. At the end, it's not that big of a deal to me...just thought I add a little item to Grusin's page. ShawnHill 00:05, 10 January 2018 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for April 16

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Media in Los Angeles, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Laff. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Hello, I'm Vami IV. I noticed that you made a comment on the page Media in Los Angeles that didn't seem very civil, so it may have been removed. Wikipedia is built on collaboration, so it's one of our core principles to interact with one another in a polite and respectful manner. If you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. ♠Vami_IV†♠ 13:55, 11 October 2021 (UTC)

Sir, you should also consider changing the language of your userpage, as its vocabulary and tone are not collegiate and is in parts insulting. –♠Vami_IV†♠ 13:56, 11 October 2021 (UTC)

Yeah, I don't need any advice from you or anyone else around here as far as conducting myself. Since you're worried about my edit, I reverted back because I wrote plenty of information on that page, and some doofus from a made-up "task force" got some bug up his ass, plus some of his buddies decided to take it upon themselves to delete what I consider pertinent information. So yes, I got upset and rightfully so...I get that Wiki is suppose to be a "collaboration", blah, blah, blah. However, some of you exert whatever power you THINK you have over other editors...if we don't collaborate YOUR way, then you'll use your "power" to block or ban whomever you see fit, which is absolutely ridiculous. But my tone and vocabulary is insulting LMAO...man, please. GTFOH with that. ShawnHill (talk) 00:23, 14 October 2021 (UTC)

I don't need any advice from you or anyone else around here as far as conducting myself clearly you do Shawn.. you really really do ~TNT (she/her • talk) 00:31, 14 October 2021 (UTC)
