Someone beat me with the welcome message. Darn. *grins*
Good contribs so far; something you might want to do is find references for some of the info you've included, like the mention of the Toyota statement, and add links to them. Just to make sure we meetWP:RS. Oh, and be sure you use edit summaries, too!Tony Fox(arf!)21:27, 16 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Just noticed something... are you making an assumption thatSlash, the G'n'R guitarist, is the same asHarry Slash? 'Cuz I don't actually see any mention on the Slashtones' page of Slash being part of the recordings, and I don't see anything on Slash's page of the ECW stuff... check with me Wednesday or drop me a note on my talk page, okay?Tony Fox(arf!)19:39, 20 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Either you are confusing me with someone else or your impression of acceptable Wikipedia edits is somewhat mistaken. I changed the wording of the section slightly and moved the link to Cho's article to the first mention of him. I did notice that my edits had not been removed, or at least that someone else had returned them. --Arsene17:53, 17 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Re your edit toShego, :Stop Team Go" has aired. That episode went out on Disney channel Europe at about midday Eastern Time.

You are cordially invited toList of Kim Possible episodes, where it has been requested that you "finish" the tables for seasons 2-4 so that they no longer have placeholders for the pictures that you removed.
Creating formatting problems and leaving them for other users to fix is a disruption of Wikipedia and a breach of etiquette.

Rdfox 76: Just wanted to throw you BIG props on your tough defense ofStop Team Go. Wrote almost every word of it (standing on the shoulders of giants, of course). That article is in a tough place: people have some strong opinions about it. So thanks again.Sbgdcom08:01, 28 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Rdfox,
For recent edits on Animaniacs, you said that certain new edits were "mentioned in the referenced interviews." Please cite the proper source on the article; Otherwise I'll have to delete it because it'll beoriginal research. Thank You.

Big favor to ask: I've gotten into a dispute due to an edit that I reverted on 2 July over at theSupergirl entry; my change is disputed and argued over at theTalk:Supergirl#Kara Zor-El page. Since you're an editor whose work I respect, I'd appreciate it very much if you could serve as an objective observer and express an opinion about the dispute at the Talk page. As I've said there, I'm willing to abide by whatever resolution an objective, experienced observer might suggest. (I thought I'd try to resolve things through this route before requesting arbitration or anything like that.)--Galliaz00:55, 11 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

You may want to reconsider how, exactly, you want to phrasethis talk page response. The user to whom you're responding is obviously not wiki-savvy (he doesn't even know how to tilde-sign his IP address yet) and, if he is who he says he is, has probably borne witness to a rather profound, senseless tragedy. If someone comes up with a bad idea while trying to be helpful, it is not necessary to insult him ("...is this what passes for a tech school sophomore's literacy level these days?"). Just tell him no and why.
Though I won't refactor your comment, I would ask that you readWikipedia:Please do not bite the newcomers and seriously weigh whether or not you want that kid to read what you wrote when he checks back to see if anyone responded to his concerns.--Dynaflowbabble17:25, 18 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I am a professor at Boston College studying the development of the Wikipedia page on the Virginia Tech massacre. You were one of the top 5% of editors to the page, and I was wondering if you would be willing to answer a brief survey about your participation.
Your participation will help me (and hopefully the Wikipedia community) better understand the collaborative process that results in exemplary articles. If you do not wish to participate and this solicitation was unwelcome, please accept my apologies and simply delete this message from your talk page. I will not contact you again.

Hi. I've reverted your reversion. I'm addressing this here so we can discuss it rather than go through a pointless edit war. Poison Ivy's status as a bisexual has never been confirmed, only insinuated. I just want to be accurate. We can't label the character as LGBT based on assumption. Can you verify her bisexuality with a reliable source?A gx712:23, 6 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
the evidence you have provided is still not conclusive. We can't allocate categories that depend on a certain interpretation or assumption; this is a place of facts. Let's be honest, not much thought goes into it. Lesbian tendancies are freqently used for titillation. They don't prove a character's orientation. Until DC have definitively categorised Ivy as bisexual then I don't think we should either.A gx706:39, 7 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. I recently noticed your edit to theKim Possible article. I have replaced your edit with mine concerning the airdate. Despite that the final episode has yet to air, we know when it will air thus completing the season and show (unless there is a fifth season in the works). I feel it is necessary to add in the final airdate since it would have been added in eventually. Thank you for your time.TrackFan18:49, 13 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Hey, I want you to know, I reverted the removal of the mention of the Power Girl fanfilms from the mainPower Girl page because there was a pretty healthy debate over it when articles about the first two came up for deletion.
It's great that you are here to uphold Wikipedia's strict standards, that is why the site is so great today I am sure.
But you have misunderstood the situation.
Gsmr's comment added nothing to the discussion and was pure spam. We do not need to flood discussion with personal opinions.
The fact that I said "noone gives a sh&t what you think" was in a private message to him, and if he found offense to that, well too bad, he needs to grow up.
It is ridiculous that everyone is so politically correct and worried about stepping on everyone else's toes; there was no profanity of any sorts..... especially since it was in private, I see nothing wrong.
I am one of the users of wikipedia that are careful to make sure it is of the highest quality: editing poor quality out, and supplying my own input from time to time (referenced, and carefully written). Gsmr has a history of vandalism and pointless spam, so I was writing him a message in hopes he would get the point and stop defacing this site in the future.So if he came complaining to you, well, that's just too bad that you've let him pull the wool over your eyes.— Precedingunsigned comment added byJovack (talk •contribs)

I see that you've edited out some lines on the mainKim Possible article. While I certainly understand your reasons for doing them, erasing this one sentence puzzles me:
"He is considered Kims main arch rival."
Aside from the lack of an apostrophe, what's wrong with it? Drakken is the main villain in the majority of episodes. I hope I don't seem so nitpicky about this, but I was just curious. ----DanTD05:08, 15 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, he was an awesome wrestler...too bad he had his issue there at the end. It was very shocking to me because he just didn't seem like that type. I still wonder what those bibles mean. For Roid Rage, you are raged out, it's like he placed those there for a purpose. Perhaps to save each soul from the horrible death it was going to have, I don't know. Weird.The Cleveland Browns are awesome!18:32, 17 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I do apologise. I have no idea why it happened, I certainly didn't do it deliberately. Looking at the timings of the edits it looks like it could have been a combination of of edit conflicts and something going awry. If you look at the last edit I made and the one immediately before it, it's a duplicate the only difference being the time stamp and the missing comment. It looks like the server has received 2 copies of my message with Wanderer57's comment sandwiched between them which in effect deleted his. Weird. ----WebHamster02:23, 28 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I was originally going to post this on that talk page but decided it would be even more off-topic to continue it there. Anyway, thank you. Yeah, my question was kinda forum-y, but 1) I'm not registered on any forums and 2) I thought if it was true it should be noted (as I said).

Welcome[edit]Welcome to the first monthly issue of the WikiProject Severe weather newsletter! In this issue, we will welcome you to the newsletter, and give you an idea of what the project is about, what it has done, and what it plans to do. So, enjoy reading the February 2008 issue! If you have not signed up to receive the newsletter, you may do so atthe newsletter page. If you do not sign up, you will not receive the next newsletter! New project articles[edit]
Featured story[edit]This featured story focuses on the relative WikiWork for this project. The relative WikiWork is the measure of how lose a project is to having every article featured. It is a complex calculation; ω = a + 2g + 3b + 4s + 5t where a is A-class articles, g is GA-class articles, b is B-class articles, s is start-class articles, and t is stub-class articles. Thus, the closer you are to 0 (zero), the closer you are to having every article featured. The WikiWork number for every class is added, then divided by the number of articles, similar to averaging, and it is found that the relative WikiWork for this project is Ω = 4.182. Ω is a symbol for the relative WikiWork factor. That is not the best number, as we are closer to 5 than we are to 0, and we are very close to 5. This means that the majority of the articles in the project are either stub, or start. That is what we need to change. So, while more severe weather articles are good, we should try not to publish as many stub class, and fewer start class articles.

Significant storms[edit]Main article:January 2008 Tornado Outbreak Sequence Significant storms last month included the outbreak in the United States in early to mid-January that produced 71 tornadoes and killed three people. Severaltornado emergencies were issued in association withsupercells during this outbreak. This outbreak was very similar to a classic spring severe weather outbreak, but extending farther north than even most late season outbreaks. The hardest hit areas on January 7 were theSpringfield, Missouri metropolitan area and areas immediately to the north ofChicago, three people were killed near Springfield throughout the Southwestern MissouriOzarks. On January 8, my area, the Tri-State region ofEvansville, Indiana, was hit with the tornado outbreak. Only a few funnel clouds were reported in my area. Most tornadoes of the day were confined to theMemphis, Tennessee area and EasternArkansas, where one person was killed. On January 9 only a few wind and hail reports were received[1]. On January 10, however, the action started back up. More tornadic storms developed across theSouthern United States, including several significant storms that produced tornadoes. These tornadoes severely damaged rual towns inMississippi,Alabama, andGeorgia. The most notable of these tornadoes was reported inLamar County, Alabama where 1 person was injured as several buildings were destroyed in thisEF-3 tornado. Five more deaths (three by tornadoes and two by straight-line winds) were reported on January 29 from a series of scattered tornadoes and a serial derecho across the Ohio Valley stretching south into Arkansas.[2] References[edit]

Welcome[edit]Welcome to the second edition of theWikiProject Severe weather newsletter. In this edition of the newsletter we will detail the upcoming severe weather season, touch on last month's tornado outbreaks, and look at a new proposal for formatting tornado outbreak articles. New project articles[edit]
Featured story[edit]This month's featured story has two parts, the first part detailing the upcoming severe weather season, and the second part will detail a new proposal for tornado outbreak articles. With numerous outbreaks already, this season may very well be one of the worst ever. First, a review of past seasons. Last year's severe weather was mainly focused on the western High Plains, with no classicOklahoma tornado outbreaks. Most of the outbreaks last season had supercells forming along either a cold front or dry line in westernKansas and the panhandles ofOklahoma andTexas. Most of these storms moved due north or northeast, producing flooding problems. The severe weather season was especially boring farther east in the Midwest where only an occasional squall line moved through. I personally missed the Greensburg tornado because I went to Saint Louis on May 5 to watch a baseball game. I can still remember seeing the high risk in Kansas on the monitor in the rest stop. 2006 was a little bit more active and widespread. As always, the NWS and SPC did an amazing job of forecasting the storms. Back to the future (ha!) theCPC outlooks are saying warmer and drier than normal in tornado alley. However, it looks to be a bit more exciting severe weather season for people farther east in the Midwest (including me) with warmer than normal temperatures and equal chances of being above and below forecast values, which usually means normal amounts. As local TV stations have pointed out, we should all be prepared. I know we have all heard it, but it still needs to be repeated. Two words:Weather Radio Everyone should have a tone-alerted weather radio, SAME if you perfer to not be woken up for a flash flood watch 50 miles from you. Weather radios will also go off if your local emergency management agency requests a statement be issued by the National Weather Service for things such as evacuations. (Note: Even though there was a gas leak in my town with evacuations, a prodcut was not issued by the National Weather Service, even when they are issued to request people to stay off roads.) If you are under a tornado warning or a high end severe thunderstorm warning (i.e.: 70 m.p.h. winds +) go to an interior room on the lowest floor of your building, preferably a basement. Stay away from windows and any other hazardous objects. I may not have included it all, so obey the safety rules in warnings from the National Weather Service. Spotters should call the NWS immediately upon observing severe weather. If the event was borderline severe, use E-Spotter (If your office uses it). Remember the #1 thing:Stay Safe this season anywhere you are, from chasing in Oklahoma to watching it unfold on TV in Ohio. New Standards[edit]With the upcoming severe weather season,User:Southern Illinois SKYWARN has proposed new standards for tornado outbreak articles. Overview States the number of tornadoes, fatalities. Briefly describes any strange events and records set. (Required) Meteorological synopsis Describes weather leading up to the outbreak and SPC products issued.(Required) Confirmed tornadoes Tornado table, no text besides that in the table (Required, should be split into list if very large) Significant storms (Variable name) Describes the most significant storms and tornadoes (Required) Aftermath Describes aftermath in detail, should also include disaster declerations (Required) Non-thunderstorm effects/Non-tornadic effects Use the first if snow or other non-thunderstorm events occurred (Optional) The latter should be standard on all pages describing effects from a squall line, hail, flash flooding, or other non-tornadic effects (Required) Oddities/Records Only used if necessary (Optional) References (Required) See also Should always link to at leastList of North American tornadoes and tornado outbreaks (Required) External links External links should only go to news stories or NWS pages (Required) These standards have been developed for tornado outbreaks where a lot of information is available. Older outbreaks should include as much information as possible. Readers are encouraged to express their opinion atWikipedia talk:WikiProject Severe weather/Tornado. Wikiwork statistics[edit]Wikipedia:Version 1.0 Editorial Team/Severe weather articles by quality statistics Members section[edit]New members[edit]
Featured member[edit]This month's featured member isUser:JForgetThe following text is fromUser:Southern Illinois SKYWARN's nominationThis user has started numerous articles on older, significant tornado outbreaks that met notability requirements. JForget recently received a barnstar (even if it was from me) for his work in WikiProject Severe Weather. JForget is one of the most tireless contributors to the project and deserves to be this month's featured member. Note: Readers of this newsletter are urged to check the newsletter page for nominations for featured member and featured story. Main article:2008 Super Tuesday tornado outbreak  Obviously the first order of business for this section is the massive, devastating tornado outbreak on February 5, orSuper Tuesday. 82 tornadoes and 59 fatalities were confirmed in association with this outbreak. This was the deadliest outbreak since theUnited States-Canadian Outbreak in 1985 which killed 88. Tornado watches, many of themParticularly dangerous situation watches at one point extended from theOhio Valley to the Gulf Coast. Instability and shear values were extreme, especially for February. This was a very well forecasted and warned event, despite media reports of people receiving no warning. I am sorry, but I am going to rant a little about this. The National Weather Service field offices and the Storm Prediction Center did an amazing job of warning of this event despite the speed of the storms. Many National Weather Service offices held at least one conference call with emergency managers, media, spotter groups, and other interested parties. I am outraged that the media reported this as if the forecasters were asleep at the wheel, while this really was one of the best forecasted events ever. Now while we will have to wait for the likely service assessment to come out, I believe that all numbers from the false-alarm rate to the probability of detection were above national averages. Now that I am done with my little editorial, I will get back to the outbreak. A high risk was issued by the Storm Prediction Center on the morning of February 5 for most ofArkansas, the first such issuance in February since 1998. Later in the morning, it was further was extended to include westernKentucky, northwesternMississippi, theMissouri Bootheel, WestTennessee, and Far SouthernIllinois (Close to where I live, Yikes!). A moderate risk surrounded this area, where the squall line was the main problem. A massive squall line developed in the Great Plains prompting only a few warnings at first, but when it came into the area where the cap had broken and unfortunately supercells went through, it exploded producing strong winds, hail, and a few tornadoes. Now for the supercells. Supercells began to develop late in the day in Arkansas and Missouri after the cap broke much later than expected. These supercells began to move north and east and then became tornadic. A record fivetornado emergencies were issued in association with this outbreak. One supercell developed to the southwest of Memphis and devastated eastern and southern suburbs. Other notable supercells had tracks of over 200 miles and produced several tornadoes. For more information about its non-tornadic effects see the article and the upcomingWikiProject Non-Tropical storms newsletter.

Hi Rdfox,
I appreciate your efforts to fight vandalism on theList of Animaniacs episodes, however your automatic reversion was not appropriate in this case, as it reverted much more than just the vandalism. It took me a long time to remove the inappropriate links on that list, and it took me a long time today to remove them yet again. Please revert vandalism manually in the future when the previous edit does not constitute vandalism.
Thank you,

Hi. Re. user Nailedtooth war editinghttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_civilian_nuclear_accidents to hide nuclear incident in France. The entry clearly fits the scope of the article as the incident involved a uranium leak and is therefore fissile material. If you still agree could you assist against Nailedtooth who has a history of censoring edits on this page. Thanks.AzureAnt (talk)20:51, 20 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

How is me adding the statuses of the characters completely unnecessary? Was it because I put a little to much in them as well as what I added to the paragraphs? STCooper1(STCooper1 (talk)15:08, 25 July 2011 (UTC))[reply]
That's an excellent detail you added about the film, citing Favreau on the DVD commentary. But could we please have a timestamp of where this information purportedly appears within the roughly two-hour commentary? Otherwise it's like citing a book without giving a page number.
Also, while not required, it would also be extremely helpful to quote his exact words, since unlike with Web sources, other editors cannot instantly check a DVD track to see if what he says matches the information. You'd be surprised, and I'm sure it's not the case here with you, but I have seen countless times that other editors will take a quote in black-and-white text and say in a Wiki article that the quote says something it doesn't.
Anyway, it is agreat piece of information you found, and I hope we can get in fully cited and footnoted. With thanks,--Tenebrae (talk)14:36, 3 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
You might want to take a look at that edit again - before my removal, there were two exact copies of the information in the section, one right after the other. I simply removed one of the copies. I've reverted it back. -Jack Sebastian (talk)02:36, 1 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Just for clarity, no I did not re-start the edits for which I was blocked. And I patiently waited out a month when I was not blocked but had to act as if I were (and because of this no admin would consider an "unblock").Rich Farmbrough,15:25, 1 May 2012 (UTC).[reply]

I am just here to say that bias you have against me is plainly obvious, and I am asking you kindly to back off, as I am starting to get annoyed. I am starting to think that you see my username and instinctively hit revert. You pretty much admitted this in your reversion of the 1965 Palm Sunday article. If you would simply do some basic fact checking, this could all be avoided
My change to "Lacon, IL" was sourced via Grazulis, and you obviously reverted because you saw my username, and didn't even check or research the validity of my edit. I would bet money that if any other user made that edit, you wouldn't have reverted it. If you have this idea that I make willy-nilly edits with no basis, then you are mistaken. I dig through hours online resources, old newspaper archives, books, and pdf documents to find my information. I take pride in providing valuable, detailed, and verifiable info on historical tornadic events. Seeing the reversion of all this work is frustrating to say the least. All I ask is for you to trust me a little more, and actually READ the sources and information provided.Sharkguy05 (talk)04:01, 11 July 2013 (UTC)Sharkguy05[reply]

I am not "copying" the article,Thunderbolt siren. I am merely fixing it and giving it a NEW PAGE. This is not stealing anything and there is no need to delete it.

Hot Spot was directed by Friz Freleng, not Chuck Jones. Also, can you add "directed by (insert director's name here) in (insert year here)" on the Wikipedia video links as well as replacing "Hot Spot, directed by Chuck Jones in 1945" with "Hot Spot, directed by Friz Freleng in 1945" on the Wikipedia video link, please?24.180.56.157 (talk)22:31, 30 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
The destroyer escorts built for Britain (the Captain class) were painted originally in US Navy Measure 16 (arctic) camouflage, also known as the Thayer System after its author. The pattern was indeed white with polygons of a pale blue of Thayer's invention, hence its (official USN) name of Thayer Blue. It was defined according to the 1929 Munsell color system as 5B 8/2.Solicitr (talk)05:05, 17 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Dear project member, This message is being sent out to encourage new ideas and feedback on those proposed in regard to the colors debate for WikiProject Weather. For those who are unaware of what's been happening over the last year, I will give a brief summary. We have been discussing proposed changes to the colors of the dots on tropical cyclone maps and templates and infoboxes across the entire weather project in order to solve issues related to the limited contrast between colors for both normal vision as well as the various types of color blindness (MOS:ACCESS). We had partially implemented a proposal earlier this year, however, it was objected to by a number of people and additional issues were presented that made it evident this wasn't the optimal solution. We tried to come up with other solutions to address the issues related to color contrast, however, none of them gained traction and no consensus was generated.
We need your help and I encourage you to propose your own scale and give feedback on those already listed. Keep in mind that we areNOT making a decision on any individual proposal at this time. We are simply allowing people to make proposals and cultivate them given feedback from other project members. Please visit ourproject page for additional details. The proposal phase will close no later than December 31st at 23:59 UTC.NoahTalk04:09, 21 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I invite you and anyone else who wants to to editDraft:list of particularly dangerous situation watches. It seems as if that article has sorta been forgotten about. We’ve only gotten down to 2020 (for completely listed and in some cases not even that far) and if I recall, the entries only go back to 2018. There’s still a lot more in IEM archives. Your help at expanding the list to mainspace ready format would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
