Hey buddy, talk to me here. The pages you are marking as lacking source are pictures of Transformers that are no longer at www.transformers.com, so I removed that info from the page. How do I properly site a page that no longer has the image on it, but once did? ] (]) 01:07, 8 June 2008 (UTC)

Okay

Seriously, edit warring is a very, very bad thing. It would have been much better to leave me a note on my talk page rather than simply revert back to the redirect. I'm gonna be honest, I'm somewhat pissed by it, even though I understand why you thought it was okay. EVula // talk // ☯ // 16:40, 30 April 2008 (UTC)

  • I don't see it as edit warring: I see it as you missing that I opened and was withdrawing the AfD and that there was a consensus at the previous AfD (which wasn't flagged on the List of...'s talk page -- which is why I opened a second and unnecessary AfD). It's not something to get even a little bit pissed about. --EEMIV (talk) 16:44, 30 April 2008 (UTC)
    • It's still better to leave a talk message than to just up and do it; like I said, I understand why, but there was still a "what the hell?" moment when I first saw it. EVula // talk // ☯ // 16:50, 30 April 2008 (UTC)

deprodding

I have deprodded some of your star wards universe characters & suggested changing them to a redirect instead, as the name might well be looked for. since I dont know just where in those pages to redirect to--not being much of a fan--I leave that to you. Or maybe there's a good merge. DGG (talk) 14:35, 3 May 2008 (UTC)

Nightmares

In response to this

Anakin tell Padme in episode II that when he is outside meditating that "jedi don't have nightmares" --Vertigo315 (talk) 18:12, 6 May 2008 (UTC)

Force Lightning

Please be careful when removing backlinks. That is a redirect and so should be deleted itself not just have the link unwikified. JoshuaZ (talk) 23:56, 6 May 2008 (UTC)

Yikes, my bad -- I hadn't seen a redirect fired up, but I should have anticipated one. :-/ --EEMIV (talk) 00:00, 7 May 2008 (UTC)

Honorverse stuff

Yes, I agree some of them cant hold up as independent articles. But since the terms are likely to be searched for, wouldn't a merge or redirect be more appropriate than deletion? You're more likely to know the right places than I, so perhaps you should do it. DGG (talk) 23:23, 7 May 2008 (UTC)

Gameplay

In response (I think) to this

My bad on the content, I have an assignment for one of my classes going right now to edit a wikipedia article, so I figured I would add a bit. I figured it would be gone soon, but I thought it would last more than 8 minutes.... :-(

Not a bad call on the edit though. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Skavvchill007 (talk • contribs) 04:16, 8 May 2008 (UTC)

Honorverse cleanup

Thanks for cleaning up this mess. I don't have time to fix it all, but I'd highly suggested a series of mergers instead of outright deletions. For example, the recently deleted ship-classes should have been merged into their a single list or added to the list of ships in Honorverse. I will clean up a few articles today, but I'd appreciate it if you could do some mergers, too. Also, please notify User:Dotz Holiday of deletions, he maintains User:Dotz Holiday/deleted honorverse articles with the intent of transferring deleted stuff to dedicated honorverse wiki. Thanks, --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk 17:21, 8 May 2008 (UTC)

Church Software etc

Hi, I have no objections to the prod of church software, EasyWorship and MediaShout. All three articles were created by others and I only worked on them as my recent editing of contemporary worship included some cleanup of related articles. I have updated worship presentation program to include a link to a survey that gave EasyWorship and MediaShout as the two most popular packages. I don't know if that would be considered as a WP:RS but it's certainly my personal experience as well. Whilst they are notable (IMO), I don't feel that a separate article on each is necessary.

New Star Wars Encyclopedia On The Way?

Hey, a new source will be coming out that you may want to check out. See here. Sincerely, --Le Grand Roi des Citrouilles 15:27, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

Could indeed be an odd bug though, you may have done some unusual sequence of clicks, even a mouse gesture they haven't caught. Gwen Gale (talk) 14:44, 26 May 2008 (UTC)

User talk:70.178.56.123

In response to this

Hello. Just wanted to let you know that I reverted your revert of the blanking of User talk:70.178.56.123, since as per WP:USER, editors may remove messages from their own talk page at will. Thanks, --Kralizec! (talk) 12:07, 27 May 2008 (UTC)

I didn't think that applied for IP pages, since by virtue of being an IP no single user is guaranteed to always connect to that IP. (Although, yes, I know this particular IP seems to be used by the same editor.) --EEMIV (talk) 12:09, 27 May 2008 (UTC)
Never mind; just looked at WP:USER and saw the relevant line. --EEMIV (talk) 12:11, 27 May 2008 (UTC)

Redirect on Mysteries of the Sith

OK, I feel sorry for my "rvv" comment but I don't think that it is a good idea to redirect an article what is well described. Volkov 17:19, 28 May 2008 (UTC)

"Well described" is insufficient for retention on Misplaced Pages. See WP:WAF and visit the Video Game wikiproject page for content guidelines. --EEMIV (talk) 17:26, 28 May 2008 (UTC)

70.178.xxx.xxx

Do you think it's time to think about proposing a range block for our friend? That's what an admin suggested at Misplaced Pages:Requests for page protection before semi-protecting one of the page-redirects anyway. – sgeureka 14:45, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

I was just about to post something at ANI -- the archived my discussion without comment when I brought it up earlier. --EEMIV (talk) 14:46, 3 June 2008 (UTC)
