Hey. I found this, which I think would go very nicely in a new section, perhaps Legacy, with it regarding the Skittlebrau that Homer thought of during the episode. Just Google Skittle Brau or Skittlebrau, it's turned pretty big. Do you think you could add it in? I'm not sure how, as I've never done a Legacy type thing. xihix(talk) 19:40, 11 November 2007 (UTC)

Ah, thanks. Also, wanted to mention that in the commentary, Mike Scully mentioned that "The Skittlebrau was a very cool idea, we could have spun it off to make a new business..." Not sure if it's really addable, but you can fit in if you wish. xihix(talk) 19:45, 11 November 2007 (UTC)

One last thing, there are more articles at the bottom of the page I gave you with many other expirements the guy did with the Skittlebraus that you may want to check. xihix(talk) 20:19, 11 November 2007 (UTC)

Well, the website seems pretty formal and stuff, and not just some blog thing. I think it's notable... xihix(talk) 23:27, 11 November 2007 (UTC)

Also, there are products on it like clothes. There's also a website dedicated just to it. xihix(talk) 23:31, 11 November 2007 (UTC)

Another thing I just learned is that the Skittle Brau was seen in another episode apparently. I know I've seen the episode before but I can't remember which, but it involved a 33-cent store... xihix(talk) 23:43, 11 November 2007 (UTC)

Ah, I remember now, it was Thirty Minutes Over Tokyo. xihix(talk) 23:45, 11 November 2007 (UTC)

Not being an admin

just so you know, you don't have to be an admin. All you would have to do is choose the lists and someone else could protect them. Admn ship is not needed for the position. The Placebo Effect 22:18, 11 November 2007 (UTC)

well, all that is need is a LOTD manager. Everything else can continue the way it is cause it isn't a mess like early Featured Articles. Its just that you seem the most active at promoting and i think you would be able to choose lists to appear on the main page that wouldn't make people angry. The Placebo Effect 22:33, 11 November 2007 (UTC)

Help?

Do you wanna help with reformatting...as discussed here Ctjf83 02:03, 12 November 2007 (UTC)

well?? Ctjf83 05:16, 12 November 2007 (UTC)

are you going to create a page for all the diff families, like you did with the Van Houtens? It would be nice! Ctjf83 05:22, 12 November 2007 (UTC)

are you saying we dont need them, or you're just not doing it? Ctjf83 05:26, 12 November 2007 (UTC)

curious as to whats up with the remerge? Ctjf83 05:55, 12 November 2007 (UTC)

LMFAO, wow...anonymous like IP, or u don't know...cause i figure who cares what an IP user says Ctjf83 6:00, 12 November 2007 (UTC)

Well that is the dumbest thing i've ever heard...I'm gay, and the thought that u got rid of them, cause "they are gay" never crossed my mind. repost the merge, and i'll agree to it...it should just be merged due to 3 talks on the project page. Ctjf83 06:12, 12 November 2007 (UTC)

i was wondering if you knew how to put words on my page, specifically "Happy Thanksgiving" under the turkey I have, centered, but in bigger font, than the standard size? Thanks, Ctjf83 22:24, 12 November 2007 (UTC)

the real one? lol...anyway, i just tried it, and it didn't work, please help! Ctjf83 22:38, 12 November 2007 (UTC)

Huh?! it is the same size as normal for me...hmm Ctjf83 22:44, 12 November 2007 (UTC)

why is GuruAskew still messing with the page?! isn't that why he was blocked to begin with...what can we do about it? Ctjf83 02:33, 13 November 2007 (UTC)

Never mind, i see he is blocked for a month Ctjf83 02:47, 13 November 2007 (UTC)

I was wondering why you have never applied to be an admin? u know alot about wiki Ctjf83 01:48, 14 November 2007 (UTC)

ok...lol..how did u find that out? u check out my contrib? also what does "Prosify" mean...on the proj page number 5, under tasks. Ctjf83 02:07, 14 November 2007 (UTC)

did u really need to answer like that....Ctjf83 02:11, 14 November 2007 (UTC)

I suppose you're right..i dont know alot of the specifics on policies, and i really don't feel like reading them at this point in time...so i'll wait till i do read up on more Ctjf83 02:31, 14 November 2007 (UTC)

You really need to watch your 3RR...i'd hate to see you blocked again...for violating that..esp. if it is for a week or more, and ur good contributions are gone for that amount of time. I'd like to post the 3RR template on his talk, but then i'd have to do it for you too, and don't want to do that Ctjf83 23:34, 16 November 2007 (UTC)

Great job on the seasons, listed on the episode infobox...it looks great!! :) Ctjf83 21:29, 18 November 2007 (UTC)

Good call. I'll be on the lookout. faithless () 06:58, 12 November 2007 (UTC)

thanks

Thanks, I knew I'd done something wrong, but couldn't see where Jimfbleak 07:44, 12 November 2007 (UTC)

geog list at FLC

You participated in the discussion, and you also participated in the previous discussion of which this is essentially a direct continuation of. You've showed through your comments that you are opposed to the list as it currently stands. Therefore, it would be a conflict of interest for you to close the discussion. However, in general, if the supports don't outweigh the opposes by at least a proportion of 3 to 1, then I would have no objection with you closing the discussion as failed. I intend to source the list, and therefore I don't want featured status to be granted until after sourcing is completed. (Without sources, it would probably just be put up for review right away anyways). I'll source it before resubmitting it. But since the discussion is still providing valuable feedback, please let it continue. I expect more people will click on it when it reaches the bottom of the list. Thank you. Sincerely, The Transhumanist 15:55, 13 November 2007 (UTC)

List of films that received the Golden Film

Thank you for your comment to List of films that received the Golden Film. I added sources to the introduction. – Ilse@ 19:32, 13 November 2007 (UTC)

Talk:The Simpsons

I can't answer why the banner shell template was removed. One thing I personally think might be worth mentioning though is that maybe the 1.0 template might be separated from the other templates, maybe being placed underneath the banner shell. I only say this because that template doesn't refer so much to a specific WikiProject, but indicates that the article in question is included in one or more of the print or electronic versions of wikipedia, which is possibly important to all the projects, and also, honestly, can be seen as being at least a little point of pride for the people who've worked on the article. Just an opinion, of course. John Carter 21:16, 14 November 2007 (UTC)

Question

there is no discussion on the merge of the Flander's kids, with the Flanders family like it says there is Ctjf83 03:04, 15 November 2007 (UTC)

also, is Kearney's last name ever mentioned, i dont remember it, but he is listed as having one Ctjf83 03:15, 15 November 2007 (UTC)

on the contributions page, why does it sometimes say (top) what does that mean? Ctjf83 03:30, 15 November 2007 (UTC)

Luck

Basically I use luck to find them, BBC News is ok, and Digital Spy is actually prety good because they mention nearly all of them. Gran 07:21, 15 November 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for that, and yeah I do use EW. As for NHC, its only really an occasional thing, I was a regular poster years ago (with a different account) but I got bored of it. Gran 18:30, 15 November 2007 (UTC)

List of National Hockey League statistical leaders

Hello Scorpie, perhaps you should've discussed 'removing' the flags first. I've opened a flag discussion at Misplaced Pages: WikiProject Ice Hockey, to see what the Project decides. GoodDay 16:14, 15 November 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for considering not removing the flags 'til Project decides (I know, I'm being sarcastic). GoodDay 16:26, 15 November 2007 (UTC)

No problem, I'm just not overly quick. GoodDay 16:31, 15 November 2007 (UTC)

Quotes

Do you know how to make multiple quotes? The best I could do is this...

Lisa Simpson: "This ranch is appalling! It's built on a legacy of cruelty to animals and oppression of indigenous people!"
Rich Texan: "Just our way of making y'all feel welcome!"
Lisa: "You're not listening!"
Rich Texan: "I never do!" YEE HAW! (Bang, Bang)

Is there any other way to improve on this? --Simpsons fan 66 20:54, 16 November 2007 (UTC)

Don't you think that the references to the simpsons section in The Simpsons Hit and Run is relevant? It doesn't list all the references, it merely uses some examples to highlight one of the main features of the game. --Simpsons fan 66 22:46, 18 November 2007 (UTC)

Please stop reverting The Simpsons: Testify

Information is from the booklet. If the information is incorrect, you would need an official source for that. Remember, "The threshold for inclusion in Misplaced Pages is verifiability, not truth." WP:VERIFY---- Svetovid (talk) 22:11, 16 November 2007 (UTC)

Tiny reminder

Remember the source I used to find information on Little Orphan Millie (how Kirk and Luann where to be remarried) from this link? I plan on finding out what's after Funeral for a Fiend. - Yours truly, Superior_(talk) 04:45, 18 November 2007 (UTC)

Thanks though. How can I find a press release form to look forward to, as I continously keep scanning throughout the internet for anything, and the only decent thing I trust are the TV Listings and the Reliability of Misplaced Pages; which, at the moment, seeing as I struggle with locating sources, I find aren't entirley reliable. How can I find a good link or source to look forward to? Thanks for reply, - Yours truly, Superior_(talk) 04:54, 18 November 2007 (UTC)

Simpsons Halloween episodes

Yeah, I'll try to take a look soon. Lately, I've been caught up in basketball stuff, since the NBA season is in full swing, but I'll get back to Simpsons aricles eventually. Zagalejo^^^ 06:30, 18 November 2007 (UTC)

I have a question about this sentence: "Every Treehouse of Horror episode features an opening segment which precedes the modified version of the opening sequence." When you talk about the "modified version of the opening sequence", what specifically are you referring to? The couch gag and the TV screen credits? Thanks. Zagalejo^^^ 05:19, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

So should we really begin the sentence with the word "Every"? Zagalejo^^^ 05:32, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

I think I'll just write a new sentence from scractch. The segment/sequence distinction is too vague. Zagalejo^^^ 06:27, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

Just a brief content-related question: Doesn't Marge give a brief warning at the start of Treehouse of Horror IV? I remember her telling viewers to listen to "War of the Worlds" on NPR. Zagalejo^^^ 22:47, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

Well, that's kind of an indirect warning, no? Zagalejo^^^ 02:24, 20 November 2007 (UTC)

Re: Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Animated Program (For Programming less than One Hour)...

Just wondering - is there an award for animated programs longer than an hour? Zagalejo^^^ 00:39, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

Simpsons

What is the proper way to merge the Flander's articles (with the exception of Ned) into the family article. I also commented on your post about the kids' mentions of "being gay", and it is absolutely ridiculous that it is mentioned in their articles. Ctjf83 03:22, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

Ugh, freaking people! BTW, I commented on your post on Benjiboi's talk page, in total support of you, in removing an references to their "gayness" Ctjf83 03:30, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

oh, and also, in the future if someone accuses of you of removing "gay stuff" from an article, just because you don't want it there, it wouldn't hurt to let me know. If they see a gay person weighing in, in support of you, it would help them "understand" why it doesn't need to be there Ctjf83 04:03, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

UGH, this user feels it necessary to revert my deletion of his unsourced cultural references to Husbands and Knives i gave him the 3RR warning, but I can't rvt again, or I'd be violating, if you want do check out the CRs and see if they need to stay or go Ctjf83 17:05, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

What can i do to speed up my GAC reviews....I am beyond antsy for it to get done! Ctjf83 01:18, 20 November 2007 (UTC)

Tree House of Horror (Series) FAC

I can't believe this, I try and do the article a favor and this is the thanks I get. I didn't see anything about a GA given that its at the very bottom of the notices. And I haven't caused a major problem, all you have to do is archive the FAC then create a new one --Hadseys (talk • contribs) 19:27, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

Oh darn. Anyway, just one thing before I pass it as a GA. Do I put it before "Treehouse of Horror ", or do I list it alphabetically.

By the way, I saw the clip of Alan Moore, Spielgman and Cloves on YouTube. Very very funny, how good is the rest of the episode? Alientraveller (talk) 19:38, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

Just passed it, I put it under TV episodes. So about "Husband and Knives"... Alientraveller (talk) 19:47, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

They took the mick out of that at the end of one episode, as well as "Treehouse of Horror I". So I don't think it'll ever reach that point. I do like how the writers are aware they're not as good as they used to be ("like Homer jumping the shark") but not every episode can be "Deep Space Homer" now can it... Alientraveller (talk) 19:53, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

I can see very cynical fans getting a kick out of that one. I'm probably gonna cry like hell though when the series is ended. Then I'll subscribe to the comics. LOL. Alientraveller (talk) 19:59, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

Cast

I'm adding a casting type section to the cast list, and I remember hearing in a commentary that Groening was forced to use Kavner and Castellaneta. I thought it was 138th Spectacular, but I;ve just listened to it, and its not mentioned. So do you have any idea which one it is? Gran 20:34, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

I've asked at NHC, although I think I must have imagined it. As such, do you have any other good casting info for the pair? Gran 20:56, 19 November 2007 (UTC)
