WFSB

Hi, I've reverted your edits to WFSB, since you provided no reliable sources for the claims made in your edit. In addition, per WP:NAMEPEOPLE, you must create an article for everyone in a list of names before adding them to the list. The Mark of the Beast (talk) 02:50, 9 July 2011 (UTC)

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Misplaced Pages, as you did at WFSB. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted or removed. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. The Mark of the Beast (talk) 02:58, 9 July 2011 (UTC)

Hello! I was the one who deleted the History section, becuase it does not have any information about how the station was created, built, run and entirely staffed by Chuck Norris. Don't you find that incredible? I DO!

Okay, now that you see how absurd that is: I cut out everything that was unreferenced... because it was unreferenced. You can't just add it back in without citations. Please let me know if you want to discuss this further or have any questions. Best, Markvs88 (talk) 15:25, 11 July 2011 (UTC)

Like It Is (public affairs program)‎

Hello. Thanks for your work on Like It Is.

I just wanted to point out that you should mark edits as "minor" only if they truly are minor edits. In accordance with Help:Minor edit, a minor edit is one that the editor believes requires no review and could never be the subject of a dispute. Minor edits consist of things such as typographical corrections, formatting changes, or rearrangement of text without modification of content. Additionally, the reversion of clear-cut vandalism and test edits may be labeled "minor".

Thanks again, — Malik Shabazz /_Stalk 22:49, 12 October 2011 (UTC)

"n"

Please note that all the Veolia schedules use little "n"'s, not capital "N"'s. — Train2104 (talk • contribs) 14:49, 1 January 2012 (UTC)

The letter may be in a lower-case on the schedule, but I don't think that should be taken literally. Look closely at the text and you'll notice the use of upper-case "N"s as well. I much prefer going back to the upper-case, as it keeps in line with the other services. DreamMcQueen (talk) 18:07, 1 January 2012 (UTC)

Saw the buses in action today, and there is no lower-case "n" on any of them. Thus, the upper-case "N" should be restored. DreamMcQueen (talk) 23:17, 1 January 2012 (UTC)

Your invitation to participate in a Wikimedia-approved survey in online behavior.

Hello, my name is Michael Tsikerdekis, currently involved as a student in full time academic research at Masaryk University. I am writing to you to kindly invite you to participate in an online survey about interface and online collaboration on Misplaced Pages. The survey has been reviewed and approved by the Wikimedia Foundation Research Committee.

I am contacting you because you were randomly selected from a list of active editors. The survey should take about 7 to 10 minutes to complete, and it is very straightforward.

Misplaced Pages is an open project by nature. Let’s create new knowledge for everyone! :-)

To take part in the survey please follow the link: tsikerdekis.wuwcorp.com/pr/survey/?user=89886934 (HTTPS).

Best Regards, --Michael Tsikerdekis (talk) 12:05, 22 February 2012 (UTC)

PS: The results from the research will become available online for everyone and will be published in an open access journal. As a thank you for your efforts and participation in Misplaced Pages Research you will receive a Research Participation Barnstar after the end of the study.

UPDATE: This is the second and final notification for participating in this study. Your help is essential for having concrete results and knowledge that we all can share. I would like to thank you for your time and as always for any questions, comments or ideas do not hesitate to contact me. PS: As a thank you for your efforts and participation in Misplaced Pages Research you will receive a Research Participation Barnstar after the end of the study. --Michael Tsikerdekis (talk) 13:24, 16 March 2012 (UTC)

WBAL-TV

Please stop edit-warring and take your concerns to the talk page to reach consensus before moving further. Also, using an IP to get around the 3RR rule is, in fact, against the rules. Please only use your sign-in account when editing. - Neutralhomer • Talk • 00:02, 26 March 2012 (UTC)

WICU

Please provide a clarification on specific reason(s) why my edit to the article was reverted. Just saying "unneeded changes" is too vague and should be explained. Also, I spent a few days updating the sections (as I am now doing for WSEE-DT2) and do not feel a revert was necessary unless you provide exact issues and/or suggestions. As mentioned above for WBAL, using an article's talk page along with consulting its history page is the best way to reach agreements about what edits should be made. Feel free to look at my other edits i.e WFFF, WENY, WZVN, KESQ to see similar changes as WICU and WSEE. Strafidlo (talk) 18:35, 27 April 2012 (UTC)

Regards to List of CBS television affiliates (table)

Hello there. I am sending this to you to ask why you keep reverting my edits on the above mentioned article. I created it so people could get to the info on the CW stations and indies more quickly. You DID realize that the NBC and FOX lists also have this as well. WE NEED TO STOP EDIT WARRING. Thank you! Fairly OddParents Freak (Fairlyoddparents1234) 00:56, 3 June 2012 (UTC)

Notice of Dispute resolution discussion

Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion at Misplaced Pages:Dispute resolution noticeboard regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. The thread is "List of CBS television affiliates (table), List of ABC television affiliates (table)". Thank you. --Fairly OddParents Freak (Fairlyoddparents1234) 21:43, 24 June 2012 (UTC)

Hello there.....

Can you please explain clearly WHY you had to remove the CBS Television Stations link on the

And by the way, nice job vandalizing the FOP wiki. Fairly OddParents Freak (Fairlyoddparents1234) 18:27, 26 June 2012 (UTC)

DRN discussion reopened

Though I previously closed it, I have reopened the listing at Misplaced Pages:Dispute_resolution_noticeboard#List_of_CBS_television_affiliates_.28table.29.2C_List_of_ABC_television_affiliates_.28table.29 due to the objection of another volunteer at DRN. Please resume proceedings there. — TransporterMan (TALK) 13:16, 26 June 2012 (UTC)

Attention:

QUOTE: Can you please do me a favor and LEAVE ME ALONE. Your cries for attention are almost as ridiculous as your user name. DreamMcQueen (talk) 01:39, 26 June 2012 (UTC) The above is considered a talk page attack as per the second sentence, STRONGLY NOT ALLOWED HERE. Please avoid such insults or else I WILL REPORT YOU TO THE ADMINS! Thank you. Fairly OddParents Freak (Fairlyoddparents1234) 14:39, 26 June 2012 (UTC)

WHY WHY WHY WHY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I need answers from you NOW!

Tell me why you want to torture me. Why can't we just settle this with a calm discussion ClubPengiunDark/ Lightning McQueen?!?! I need answers from you now! I will keep sending you messages like these until you clearly tell me why you decided to remove the CBS Television Stations link from the CBS affiliates table. And WHY did you have to remove the DMA nimbers from the CBS and ABC tables when they are still on List of NBC television affiliates (table) and List of Fox television affiliates (table)? Why can't remove those as well?! I am so sick and tired of having to deal with you! If you're pissed of me too, why don't you BAN ME?!?!?! I want you to!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Fairly OddParents Freak (Fairlyoddparents1234) 18:39, 26 June 2012 (UTC)

Can we please just have a discusson?

We nee to talk on settling our feud with each other. We can't choose edit warring, that is against WP policies. Unless you're of course, a heartless scum-filled vandal who wants to ruin Misplaced Pages and the lives of Wikipedians. And by the way, calling my user name ridiculous is also against policies. Repeated user harassment may cause you to be blocked and even worse, banned. Thank you. Fairly OddParents Freak (Fairlyoddparents1234) 19:00, 27 June 2012 (UTC)

		I happened to stumble across you and... wow. Just wow. Your recent encounters with one particular editor on here have been just gruesome. I can only hope that this will ease some of the pain. Let me know if there's anything I can do. Rotorcowboy contribs 09:54, 29 June 2012 (UTC)

Hello...

Hi there. I've been noticing you've been removing the DMA numbers from several affiliate lists. Can you please point out which talk page thread lead you to do this? And please be calm, nice, an say your "please" and "thank you"s. Thanks. Fairly OddParents Freak (Fairlyoddparents1234) 11:49, 30 June 2012 (UTC)
