Why do you not consider The Times a reliable third party source? Also, the article cited specifically states one million copies "sold" worldwide, not "shipped". 86.1.249.35 (talk) 20:34, 19 August 2008 (UTC)

Civility/threats

This is not the right way to communicate with other editors. Take it to the talk page and, please, lay off the threats. Beeblbrox (talk) 06:18, 24 August 2008 (UTC)

Your report to WP:AIV

Hello - thanks for making a report to WP:AIV. We appreciate your assistance, but AIV is for ongoing, current vandalism, and the IP you reported is not a vandal and is not currently editing.

First, he has not made any edits at all for the last seven hours. Current means current, as in the last few minutes, not hours. Second, his contributions show he's a good faith editor who has made many constructive edits, although they may be against consensus or not in the correct place or format. He's not violating WP:3RR, he's not uncivil, and he sources his content with references.

Even if he was a vandal (which, again, he is not), vandals must be warned more than once to stop their ongoing, current behavior before you report them to AIV. It's important to understand the difference between vandalism and content disputes, and this is a content dispute.

If someone is indeed a vandal, they'll either stop after they're warned or they'll keep going until they're blocked. As I said, though, this guy is not a vandal and he's not going to be blocked now. KrakatoaKatie 07:30, 24 August 2008 (UTC)

This is an uncivil comment. Please be more cautious in the future. Dreadstar † 07:50, 24 August 2008 (UTC)

Just checking - how did that second report to WP:AIV go for you? You know, you asked us for help - remember? We're trying to help you, by pointing out applicable Misplaced Pages policies and guidelines so you will understand why we must say yes or no to a particular request. We are being civil and polite when we do this. In return, you have made personal attacks and have been rude and disrespectful to more than one experienced editor. I do indeed know what I'm doing - I've blocked hundreds of actual vandals and have declined to block hundreds more. My admin logs are open to everyone in the community, including you. Learn Misplaced Pages guidelines or don't, edit here or don't, but settle down and stop assuming bad faith of Wikipedians who disagree with you or tell you 'no'.

KylieX2008 Anon IP User

Hi. I don't know if you are having the same problem. As I am sure you may have noticed, there is an anon IP user on the KylieX2008 page. He/she is reverting other edits I have made on other articles and I think it may be happening to you. On User talk:Ericorbit], I have collected what I believe to be a list of the IP addresses that he/she are using. Please check your contributions to see if this is happening to you. Thanks.

Orphaned non-free media (Image:MadonnaRIT.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:MadonnaRIT.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Misplaced Pages under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Misplaced Pages. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Misplaced Pages (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Misplaced Pages page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 05:23, 19 September 2008 (UTC)

Blond Ambition World Tour

Point 1: Please do not leave messages which are childish and condescending. Your attacks on other users are not going unnoticed and any further will result in you being reported. I started a discussion in the discussion page for this tour and you have reacted with personal attacks and childish behaviour which quite frankly is immature. If you find the changing of the title as petty, then why do you keep changing it?

Point 2: I have added my scan of the official tourbook which clearly depicts the title as Blond Ambition World Tour. I can also prove this by showing links to the official laserdisc and tv broadcast: and also a site which has scans of official posters and concert tickets

Point 3: If you go to Madonna's official site there a various errors which some seem to be taking as real;

The title of the tour is Blonde Ambition Tour which is incorrect.
There is a date for the tour on July 21, 1991 in London which is incorrect.

Point 4: Just because its an official website does not mean there is no mistakes, I think that I have proved my findings.

Point 5: Your claims proving the real title of the tour through a copyright site is ACTUALLY the laserdisc release which was live from Nice not a registration of the actual tour. If you go to the imdb.com website you will clearly see the tours title

I have proven the tour's title through concert tickets, the official tourbook, the laserdisc release - ALL OFFICIALLY released by Madonna and her record company. Your arguement is unfounded and is basically being created by you to cause trouble. Many Thanks JWAD (talk)

October 2008

Hi. I notice you're involved in a content dispute with User:JWAD over at Blond Ambition World Tour over the tour title. While I've got no opinion on the dispute itself, I have noticed that you occasionally express opinions that are slightly less than ]. In particular, this comment was not phrased particularly well. So, while you are of course free to think whatever you like about other users (though I would suggest you also check such thoughts, to avoid unnecessary contention), could you please not express such sentiments on Misplaced Pages? Thanks. lifebaka++ 16:32, 3 October 2008 (UTC)

Arbitration Request Notification

Hello. I am asking that you please provide your thoughts in the Blond Ambition World Tour Title Dispute. From the edit history, you appear to be involved in this conflict and a consensus between editors needs to be made. I have reverted any recent edits done to the article and I kindly ask that you refrain from making any edits until this case has come to a conclusion. Thank you for your participation in advance.

Removing references

Please do not remove inline references from an article. This is actively damaging to the quality and reliability of the article, and is really, really unhelpful. It's also a massive waste of everyone's time, since you have to remove them all and then I have to come back and fix them. Shimgray | talk | 00:07, 7 November 2008 (UTC)

Citations are a positive addition to wikipedia. Removing them has a negative impact. Fighting to lower the qaulity of the article is really pointless. ---J.S (T/C/WRE) 17:35, 9 November 2008 (UTC)
