GT

I understand why you think the air-dates that I'm adding are unnecessary, but I don't believe that they are. It's been almost a decade since GT first aired in the U.S., and I think the GT episode list should have the air-dates on it from the series being re-aired on Nicktoons for the kids who are watching it nowadays. Because I'm sure there are kids out there who have missed some episodes of GT being re-aired on Nicktoons and wanted to catch up by watching online and so they came to Wikipedia to find out, but there was no mention of what episodes were aired on what day, so they go to another site to figure it out. I would rather they stay on Wikipedia, because I have always used Wikipedia and have always supported Wikipedia and what they provide. So that is why I keep re-adding my material back to the episode list. Also about me adding false air-dates for first 14 episodes, that was just completely my bad, it was just a typo during the process of having to re-add the material, 100% accidental. Now I believe that I have explained myself quite well, and I respectfully ask that you leave my edits alone from now on. Cause I know what I am doing, I'm not just editing for the Hell of it. C.epps (talk) 05:41, 21 February 2012 (UTC)

First off I do apologize, I knew I shouldn't have added it right back, but I was 100% fed up with you. That's why I took so long to write back, because all I wanted to do was curse you out and then you would have a legitimate reason to try and get me kicked off Wikipedia. But anyway back to the matter at hand, in your last message you assumed that I was wanting to add these air-dates for my own reference, which is completely untrue I am a grown man and I saw this show back when it first aired so I have a pretty good recollection of the episodes order. Like I stated in my first message, I'm sure there are kids out there who have missed episodes of GT being re-aired on Nicktoons and wanted to catch up by watching online and so they came to Wikipedia to find out, but there was no mention of what episodes were aired on what day. That is why I believe the air-dates on Nicktoons should be on this page, and I'm not the only person who thinks this. I was looking back at the page history and I discovered that not just one other person, but at least ten people have either made revisions and added the Nicktoons air-dates or have just completely left the Nicktoons air-dates alone when making their own revisions and I am sure there are plenty of more people who think that the air-dates should have a place on the page. Also, just so you don't think I am making that up, cause that sounds like something you would say to me, the people were, Wikialexdx, OliverDF, Secretlondon, Fraulein451, 190.124.216.57, 68.193.30.155, 173.71.172.178, 68.44.76.120, 70.189.104.97, and 68.191.91.110. And you actually undid a few of those peoples revisions when they added the Nicktoons air-dates. This isn't your page, you undo too many peoples revisions. Now if it was vandalism then fine undo it but they weren't, all of us have the right to add what we think is relevant and there are many of us who thinks that the Nicktoons air-dates are relevant. Like I said before it's been almost a decade since GT first aired in the states and it hasn't been on any television channel since then, and a whole new generation is watching it now on Nicktoons, and to those kids it is a brand new series and there should be some sort of reference to the Nicktoons air-dates on this page. Now like you said, we need to work this out, because I am really getting tired of this. We need to come to a compromise, so you need to either accept my revision, think of some other kind of comprise, or if you can't do either of those then just stop visiting the page. Because one way or another I am gonna have the Nicktoons air-dates on this page.C.epps (talk) 11:17, 10 March 2012 (UTC)

I said figure out some kind of compromise, cause all you want to say is no. You haven't given any other options but no. And I did say one way or another I am gonna have the air-dates on the page, but I wasn't saying it in some hateful manner. I meant that in some form or another, whether it was my revision exactly or if it was in some other way, depending on what kind of compromise you would come up with. Cause I am open for other ideas to get the air-dates on the page in some form.C.epps (talk) 04:04, 11 March 2012 (UTC)

PR casts

Please stop adding supporting actors to the infoboxes. We've intentionally limited the lists to just the actors portraying the Power Rangers rather than everyone appearing in the opening credit rolls.—Ryulong (琉竜) 06:30, 20 August 2012 (UTC)

Who's we? All I see is you decided this and it's wrong. The opening credits are the main cast. --Shadow (talk) 06:32, 20 August 2012 (UTC)

It's been a long standing decision that's probably stuck on some user talk page. It's just easier to not have like 10 people listed when the "main cast" is pretty much just the protagonists.—Ryulong (琉竜) 06:40, 20 August 2012 (UTC)

You removed those in February, that's not that long ago. I really am curious and what to know where this was supposedly decided, because it's wrong. You don't see other tv shows doing this. It doesn't matter if the Rangers are the main focus of the show. People who appear in the opening credits are stars of the show and need be listed. You're honestly saying characters like Divatox weren't main characters? That's just beyond ridiculous. It doesn't even make sense. Divatox, for example, is the main villain of Turbo. She's in every episode. --Shadow (talk) 01:44, 21 August 2012 (UTC)

It is just incredibly easer to just limit the information in the infobox to the most essential cast members, which in this case would be the protagonists and the protagonists, alone.—Ryulong (琉竜) 02:24, 24 August 2012 (UTC)

Easier for who? and what makes omitting parts of the cast making things easier? There's nothing hard about it. It says starring, so it should list all the stars. --Shadow (talk) 02:46, 24 August 2012 (UTC)

You know what. You're right. I can't unilaterally decide these things. But let's at least leave the voice actors out.—Ryulong (琉竜) 23:13, 24 August 2012 (UTC)

Years active

"They were still together as a band. Hundreds of bands take a few year hiatus without breaking up and it still lists those years in the templates." You do realize the point of this field is to display the years in which the band were active, meaning they did something, together? Saying 1990-2006 means they were active during each and every one of those years, which is wrong.  — Statυs (talk, contribs) 04:42, 6 February 2013 (UTC)

Roman Reefer

Hi there, it looks like you're edit warring on Roman Reefer. While I'm not going to take sides here, I would like to ask if it's you think it's possible this article could be improved to a state where it does belong on Wikipedia. After all, you didn't object to it's belonging on Wikipedia on User talk:TheDirtyBubblezzz, you just said this article is sloppy work. If not, perhaps you could just open a deletion proposal instead of edit warring. Transcendence (talk) 23:59, 25 March 2013 (UTC)

Glassheart Tour

Do you understand what WP:ACCESS is? Its a movement to make pages more accessible and it is part if the wikipedia guidelines now. Most single and album pages have made strives to be accessible as have discographies which now use an accessible table per WP:DISCOGSTYLE. Just because the project for concert tours has not caught up doesn't mean that the access changes at Glassheart Tour should be undone. In fact if the only reason you've undone the change is because its its not at WP:CONCERT then that is a poor reason for changing. And whilst neither format is incorrect once an article has been made accessible one you should not revert it back to a less accessible style. Also WP:CONCERT is presently blank regarding concert tour styles. — Lil_℧niquℇ №1 ^[talk] 08:56, 19 May 2013 (UTC)

Unova and Beyond

Do not unilaterally merge pages just because you have a website that says "THIS IS STILL SEASON 16". It makes it easier for us on Wikipedia to divide them up because for the following reasons:

• The pages were separated due to the Japanese broadcast and everyone who built up the page is not properly atributed as the authors of the content in your version.
• It's a different title in both languages, even though only slightly so in English, so it makes sense to divide them up.
• It's just the Pokémon anime it doesn't matter that much.

I've changed "Season 17" to "Season 16.5". Do not merge the pages again unless a consensus forms that says it should be done.—Ryulong (琉竜) 11:34, 22 September 2013 (UTC)

Do not edit war with me over the inclusion of the Dent episode/special whatever the fuck it is. You removed it. I reverted you. This does not mean you revert again.—Ryulong (琉竜) 22:59, 28 September 2013 (UTC)

You don't own this goddamn website. You are not the law of the land. Stop acting like a stuck up asshole and learn to work with other users. Your ignorance and inability to work with other people is exactly why we have wrong information on the site. You need to get a life outside of Wikipedia because you act like only you can decide how things are and that could not be farther from the truth. The Japanese website lists as "extra edition" because it's not a regular anime episodes. --Shadow (talk) 23:33, 28 September 2013 (UTC)

There's no need for it not to be listed for whatever these reasons may be. There is nothing "wrong" on any of these pages. The Cilan episode is going to be part of Da! just as the Brock and Dawn episodes were part of Sinnoh League Victors.—Ryulong (琉竜) 20:17, 30 September 2013 (UTC)

There is though. The Dawn and Brock specials do take place after Season 13, and the Cilan episode does take place just after Season 16 ends, but they are not regular anime episodes, they are specials. Main anime episodes revolve around Ash. This is most evident in the fact that the Dawn and Brock episodes aired in the middle of Season 14.

Leona Lewis

Thank you for taking the time to convert the Leona Lewis infobox properly.

If whoever made the previous attempt had done the same, instead of just changing the name of the infobox and leaving it with all kinds of inappropriate fields and formattings (and another musical artist infobox trapped inside), I wouldn't have reverted it.

I'm happy to consider the infobox you made "the proper infobox for someone who is primarily a singer". The infobox I reverted was not a proper infobox for any kind of article ever. — Paul A (talk) 08:59, 14 February 2014 (UTC)

ArtRave: The Artpop Ball

Regarding your edits to the page, first I'd like to say thank you for explaining the change this time. However, I'm not sure if Manhattan really is "not a city", seeing to it as it is one of the five main parts of New York City. Also, for town/city location listings, it often helps to be more specific on location when possible, as "New York City" can sometimes be relatively ambiguous. Seeing to it that Madison Square Garden is in Manhattan, I personally see no reason not to list the location section as "Manhattan" in the tour dates box. XXSNUGGUMSXX (talk) 03:53, 8 April 2014 (UTC)

There is no need to explain the change at all. You know full well why it was changed in the first place. It doesn't matter if Manhattan is more specific. It's not a city itself, and the column is to label the city, which is New York. It clearly states the concert is at MSG, which if you click on the link, tells you it is in Manhattan. We can't go and label every single specific part of each city. --Shadow (talk) 03:58, 8 April 2014 (UTC)

Perhaps I should've rephrased..... seeing to it that it is a major part of NYC, it only seemed suitable to list as such when the city is part of is relatively broad. Why go with ambiguities? It's not like I was saying to give the address or county or anything, though. Also, it just didn't seem helpful to change content without stating so in edit summaries. I was mainly referring to major cities when talking about going into specifics. XXSNUGGUMSXX (talk) 04:18, 8 April 2014 (UTC)

Repeated reverts on Danity Kane

Why are you edit warring over Aundrea Fimbres' departure from the group claiming that she is still touring with them as a member? I searched Danity Kane and Aundrea Fimbres on Bing and found many sources saying that once she made the announcement of leaving due to her engagement and pregnancy, she is now no longer an actual member of the group even if she is still touring with the other members. If you continue to edit war over that, you will be reported. IPadPerson (talk) 10:44, 21 May 2014 (UTC)

I'm correcting the article, that is all. She is still part of the group.

• A picture of them performing together after announcement. Another photo of them.
• Video of them at the second tour stop and video of Aundrea saying she wasn't continuing on with the group at the second tour stop.
• Local newspaper/website proving she was on stage at the second tour stop.

She announced she was leaving, but that doesn't mean she left right then and there. You guys are assuming that. She is still with the group for their tour. --Shadow (talk) 18:08, 21 May 2014 (UTC)

Question for administrator

I frequently help make minor edits to articles about concert tours. When an artist announces new tour dates you add them to article and source it. The problem I am encountering though is how to post the information. For instance, if the source abbreviates an arena name, do you use the abbreviation in the article or continue to use the full proper name? If the sources says the arena is in one city but it is actually in a smaller neighboring city, do you still put the city the source says? I can't find a Wikipedia policy that really describes the situation.

If it helps, an article currently looking at is The Circus Starring Britney Spears. The source showing the boxscore date sometimes abbreviates the arena names. For instance, it calls the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas MGM Grand Garden. Other users say we go by the source, but if that is not the arena's full name shouldn't the full name still be used? That is the proper name after all. --Shadow (talk) 04:11, 8 June 2014 (UTC)

Hi! While I'm an administrator, I've changed (and I hope you won't mind too much) this request to a more general template to attract a possibly wider list of people who can help you with this. While I've been around here for a long time, and people trust me to do a fair number of trusted things--I haven't worked with concert articles, and there are people with far more experience on our usual habits there.

It may very well be that there isn't really a specific policy for what we do there, I haven't seen one. I personally would almost always use what the source says for the city name, though, because WP:V. As to whether to abbreviate something or not, I would bet that that is often a context-dependent judgment call.

Another place you can ask for help is to leave a note at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Rock music. Often, questions related to specific types of content are better understood by the folks working together on articles of a given type. --j⚛e decker^talk 20:15, 10 June 2014 (UTC)

Here's an alternative response. I would always give the full name of the arena; we routinely silently correct things like abbreviations of names. On the locations, that's more of a judgement call, and I second the suggestion of asking at WikiProject Rock Music. The fact is that promoters often use the name of the large nearby city although the arena may be located just outside, and in such cases my own gut feeling is, use the large city name because for purposes of a concert tour, it doesn't really matter if it's a few miles beyond the city limits. However, I've seen some extreme cases, such as calling Shoreline Amphitheatre San Francisco. I suppose one could pipe San Francisco to San Francisco Bay Area? Yngvadottir (talk) 22:08, 10 June 2014 (UTC)

Although there are differences between the two responses above, as I see them the central point in both of them is "make a reasonable judgement, based on intelligent common sense", and in my opinion that is probably the best answer to your question. It certainly isn't an administrative issue: an administrator's opinion on this is of no more and no less value than the opinion of any other experienced editor. The editor who uses the pseudonym "JamesBWatson" (talk) 08:15, 11 June 2014 (UTC)

That's the problem though. My common sense tells me to use the full arena name because that is the proper name. Others say to call it whatever the sources says. That's why I was hoping for a direct answer from an admin. --Shadow (talk) 19:30, 11 June 2014 (UTC)

Actually - all 3 of us are admins :-) The project just isn't that rulebound. I think you should have faith in your own judgement - and remember that piped links are cheap ways to clarify something. Yngvadottir (talk) 20:01, 12 June 2014 (UTC)

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on The Apprentice (U.S. season 14). Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Please be particularly aware that Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states:

1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made.
2. Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

In particular, editors should be aware of the three-revert rule, which says that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. While edit warring on Wikipedia is not acceptable in any amount and can lead to a block, breaking the three-revert rule is very likely to lead to a block. If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection.

This is known as a "cut-and-paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is legally required for attribution. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.

In most cases, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page (the tab may be hidden in a dropdown menu for you). This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Requests for history merge. Thank you.

Dream Within a Dream Tour

It was cancelled and it's not including at the box office. The numbers are only for the first show. And as well documented as "cancelled show". — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mb4422 (talk • contribs) 10:57, 23 January 2018 (UTC)

It was canceled mid-show, therefore she performed, therefore it counts. If the box office only counts one show that is fine, but she performed that night, period. --Shadow (talk) 19:17, 23 January 2018 (UTC)
