Alice in Wonderland: Reimaging

I was surprised to find that the link to the wiki article on Re-imagining is set to redirect to Remake (done a while ago). That's possibly what's contributing to the current edits. Each time the AiW article mentions Re-imagining, it's linked to an article... so I don't think we'll need to change the term. However, this may pop up now and again. Just a heads up.

OrphanReferenceFixer: Help on reversion

Hi there! I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. Recently, you reverted my fix to Saw VII.

If you did this because the references should be removed from the article, you have misunderstood the situation. Most likely, the article originally contained both <ref name="foo">...</ref> and one or more <ref name="foo"/> referring to it. Someone then removed the <ref name="foo">...</ref> but left the <ref name="foo"/>, which results in a big red error in the article. I replaced one of the remaining <ref name="foo"/> with a copy of the <ref name="foo">...</ref>; I did not re-insert the reference to where it was deleted, I just replaced one of the remaining instances. What you need to do to fix it is to make sure you remove all instances of the named reference so as to not leave any big red error.

If you reverted because I made an actual mistake, please be sure to also correct any reference errors in the page so I won't come back and make the same mistake again. Also, please post an error report at User talk:AnomieBOT so my operator can fix me! If the error is so urgent that I need to be stopped, also post a message at User:AnomieBOT/shutoff/OrphanReferenceFixer. Thanks! AnomieBOT 03:01, 2 July 2010 (UTC) If you do not wish to receive this message in the future, add {{bots|optout=AnomieBOT-OrphanReferenceFixer}} to your talk page.

Looks like you haven't been informed of List-defined references—the innovative way of referencing. Mike Allen 03:18, 2 July 2010 (UTC)

RE:Scream 4 script drama

Actually, I hadn't read this until you sent me the link. Thanks for the update. Sounds like quite a train wreck. They seem to be waiting on a statement, so perhaps it'll be easier to add something to the article once some things have been clarified. I dunno, while the source is notable, I don't know if they're reliability reputation is worth the time with just the info they've given so far. I'd love to help you, Mike, but I'm going to keep my hands off this for a short bit until they make some confirmations. Thanks again for the great work on the article. Geeky Randy (talk) 04:31, 3 July 2010 (UTC)

Yeah it seems like every source has a different story or viewpoint. I don't go for all of that. No rush, the article will still be there when their are some official confirmations. Right now it just reads like gossip. "A source "close" to production told me... " If they are having all of these problems and is the reason why some actors are unhappy (and dropping out)... that doesn't look good for the finished product. :( Filming just started a few days ago. Oh I keep saying to myself that I'm not going to work on anymore upcoming film articles. There's one I'm working on coming out this month, one in September and then another in October. If you've seen what a film article looks right after it's release... it's overwhelming to keep the article coherent and stable. lol Thanks for your kind words, despite the words we had back in November. :P Mike Allen 08:15, 3 July 2010 (UTC)

Your user page

Hey Mike, I made this edit to your user page. If I've changed something you didn't want changed, I apologize. The userboxes were out of alignment, and I'm a bit OCD about things like that. I also moved the </div> to the place I assume you meant it to be. If not, feel free to revert it.  Chickenmonkey  07:43, 3 July 2010 (UTC)

No problem. Too much code for me to be fooling with after midnight. Well, I get lost in all that code anyway. LOL :-D Mike Allen 07:52, 3 July 2010 (UTC)

You removed the hash because you forgot? Just do a new one. Jack Merridew 08:00, 3 July 2010 (UTC)

I don't see the point. No one is going to crack into my account. Mike Allen 08:15, 3 July 2010 (UTC)

Saw VS Paranormal

Damn I guess the war on. I was hoping PA2 would get lost in production and at least get delayed. That could mean a big dip in revenue for Saw VII. I would laugh hysterically if PA2 bombed, I dont care for ghost movies like that. Yeah this looks to be a pretty epic year for Saw I cant wait for the trailer. Maybe they'll do the smart thing and instead of release a teaser of a guy in a trap they'll actually show some Gordon lines or something to entice fans. hmm? What's the deal with Scream 4 anyways? GroundZ3R0 002

See Kevin's latest blog post. He posted some pictures (nothing very revealing). He said there should be some official ones pretty soon. There's been some rumored drama on set of Scream 4. Word is that the script is being rewritten by the Scream 3 writer, actors are getting pissed, some are dropping out and writer Kevin Williamson is off the project. They are supposed to release an "official" statement soon. Until then that shit isn't getting into the Misplaced Pages article. I'll fight to my very last breath to keep it out (it being protected for a month came at a good time, so that's helped). It's just rumored plunk, for now, with each website having a different story. Mike Allen 00:55, 6 July 2010 (UTC)
Good pictures, not as spoilerific as I'd like but good to see updates. Wow that sounds like a bunch of shit I love Scream I really hope something good comes from all this stuff. Yeah thats a good move keeping all the rumor mills out until theres clarification even though the drones will try to change that. GroundZ3R0 002 01:11, 6 July 2010 (UTC)
Oh and did you read this. The title of the article is "'Paranormal Activity 2' trailer pulled from 'Twilight: Eclipse' after audiences deem it too scary" -- so I'll give you a hint of what it's about. :P Makes me want to puke. Oh and someone has JUST created the Paranormal Activity 2 article 3 days ago. Like someone began working on it hours ago. Well.. there's not much information coming out about it, so that may be why. I don't plan on working on it, do you? :P Anyway, did you see the new Saw II: Flesh & Blood trailer? Carla is in an elevator trap (may be the same Carla as Saw, since she's Asian and is now a doctor a free clinic). Also CHARLIE IS DOING THE MUSIC! and we actually see Jigsaw's (Tobin) face. :D Mike Allen 01:21, 6 July 2010 (UTC)

Ugh yeah stupid twilight fans are pussies and now have given PA2 some steam.. gee thanks lol Yeah I noticed there was only a paragraph on the first films page for a long time, made me glad nobody cared enough to create a page. (If you cant tell i REALLY dont like paranormal hahaha) WHOA WHOA WHAT TRAILER?! do you have a link? that is exciting news for me i missed that completely! yeah i figured when the news release said Jigsaw would return and "provide his likeness" that he would be shown, good news. Are you sure clouser is doing the score? I know people added it to the page but no source and they still add him to the first game so idk. Source? Thanks a bunch ive got my Saw void filled for a while lol GroundZ3R0 002 01:30, 6 July 2010 (UTC)

"Hello Zepp" was played in the trailer. I'm sure I read that he is back dong the score. I'll have to find it. Here's the trailer -- CLICK. Mike Allen 01:45, 6 July 2010 (UTC)
Wow great trailer thanks for the link. looks like a definite improvement upon the first. i like how they rendered jigsaw it looks way better than what i expected. did you see the quick flashes of the girl in the glass box and the hitler-esque man in blue that looks similar to the Saw III freezer trap but with fire? Yeah I think that could be Carla from I. GroundZ3R0 002 03:49, 7 July 2010 (UTC)
I think you missed my first message a while back to you where I sent you links to the new pictures of the game where they use traps from Saw II and V. See here. Also, I don't think it's confirmed that Clouser will do that score (I can't find it). I guess people just thought that because of the "Hello Zepp" being used in the trailer. Mike Allen 04:34, 7 July 2010 (UTC)

Oh nice yeah i didnt see those i like the traps they're bringing back thanks. Eh as long as Hello Zepp is actually in it then thats already an improvement, even if they're using the Zombie house composer Alex Guilbert. I FINALLY got high speed internet good bye dial up wow my surfing is so quick now! GroundZ3R0 002 17:47, 8 July 2010 (UTC)

That's gonna piss some fanboys off GroundZ3R0 002 21:26, 10 July 2010 (UTC)

Hah. You've must have missed the drama the other day where it was reported (and CONFIRMED) by Lionsgate that it would be called Saw 3D: The Traps Come Alive. Oh people were so pissed.. including me. Stupidest shit I have ever heard. The next day, Burg and company did an interview with ShocktilYoudrop and said the title was just Saw 3D and the "The Traps Come Alive" was just the tagline. They also said there will be 11 traps in the film, the interview is in the article. I don't care for SAW 3D.. but oh well. Mike Allen 21:54, 10 July 2010 (UTC)

Pifeedback

Could you give your opinion on Misplaced Pages:Reliable sources/Noticeboard#Pifeedback.com?ChaosMaster16 (talk) 13:34, 7 July 2010 (UTC)ChaosMaster16

Since you already made a post, would you mind checking it out again? ChaosMasterChat 19:46, 15 July 2010 (UTC)

Tanisha Thomas comment that you made

I am responding to a comment that I believe shouldn't had been said.

"Apparenlty this low class article gets to stay, so the AfD has been removed, and off my watchlist."

That comment shouldn't have been said at all! Please leave your own "opinions" to yourself! You could've just said "This article gets to say blah blah blah" AJona1992 (talk) 21:48, 5 July 2010 (UTC)

And.. why can't I make that comment? The comment was directed at the article, not Tanisha Thomas. The article is a low class, it's a stub. It will probably always stay that way, along with IPs adding blogs and IMDb as sources. Blah. Also, please add your comments at the bottom of the talk page. Thanks.

New wikipedia page

Hi mike, i wanted to create a new wikipedia page about this website, http://www.thisman.org/.

Its a worlwide phenomon (fuck my spelling) where every night, hundreds of people dream about the man pictured at the website above. In cities like paris, rome, L.A, and cairo, there are flyers with the mans face asking people if they have dreamed the man and to go to the website.

Is this worthy of a wikipedia page, or is it not popular enough?

Just thought id ask before i went ahead and did anything

(Moviedude346 (talk) 06:43, 9 July 2010 (UTC))

I would really think not. It hasn't appeared in any reliable secondary sources to make it notable. I think that website provides all the information there is about the "man", no need for an encyclopedic article. Also, I've never seen that man in my dreams. Thank god. But I probably will now.. thanks. LOL. Mike Allen 07:33, 9 July 2010 (UTC)

Im afraid of dreaming him too :( lol. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Moviedude346 (talkcontribs) 02:08, 10 July 2010 (UTC)

I've got lots of time to waste, so I looked at some comments on the site, one says

Gross for Love Ranch

Wow. I thought $91,716 had to be a typo. But then when I first saw that Helen Mirren and Joe Pesci were going to be in the same movie, I thought that was a typo too. Cheers, CliffC (talk) 16:59, 11 July 2010 (UTC)

It just had a limited release in the U.S from what I read. Mike Allen 17:34, 11 July 2010 (UTC)

Mike, I need your help

Hey dude, this person keeps reverting my edits! on The Bad Girls Club (season 3). The person puts that Amber was nicknamed the "Firecracker" when really she was nicknamed the "Control Freak" can you help me out on like preventing that IP address from reverting the edit. I also asked him/her to stop on both, their talk page and the talk page of the article. So I hope you can help, thank you AJona1992 (talk) 01:47, 13 July 2010 (UTC)

Good job on creating the pages (why didn't you create a season one page?). Though I would look for some secondary sources to add (right now it's mostly just primary sources). Like interviews and news release. Personally, I don't see why the nicknames should be listed. They don't go by those nicknames, as opposed to that show I Love Money, where they exclusively go by a nickname. I'm going to remove them all, that'll put an end to it. Maybe. :) Mike Allen 02:20, 13 July 2010 (UTC)
But the nicknames are a good idea to put there! lolz I mean even though it's a great informative thing. And thanks ;). I didn't want to do season 1 because there wasn't really any sources I can find. The only thing I can find about season 1 is their names and ages lolz AJona1992 (talk) 02:36, 13 July 2010 (UTC)
Hey is my grammar ok in the Season 4 page (house section)? AJona1992 (talk) 02:39, 13 July 2010 (UTC)
"Great informative thing" does not make it encyclopedic. The nicknames were only used in promos and I think maybe the first episode. The house section needs some copy editing done. Was the house really that much difference than season 3 to deserve a whole section? Looks like it's undue weight to me. Mike Allen 03:45, 13 July 2010 (UTC)
True, and yea the bad girls club house is always different, in style, etc., than other seasons. Thanks for letting my know AJona1992 (talk) 15:33, 13 July 2010 (UTC)
