Welcome to my user talk page!

Please do all of the following:
  • Always link to the text, image, or edit you want to discuss. When linking to an image, use a colon. For example, "[[:Image:Example.jpg]]" produces "Image:Example.jpg".
  • Don't forget to provide a proper Edit Summary for each and every edit, and a proper signature for each and every post to a talk page or notice board. I may revert edits that do not have such features, rather than respond to them.
  • Reply to interactive messages at the location of the original topic to not scatter talk all around, fracturing the discussion. I do have nearly all pages I have posted to recently on my Watchlist. If I missed a comment, please use {{Talkback}} to drop me a short reminder with a link here.
  • Respect my babel boxes. Write in English. I'm also able to communicate in Spanish a bit, but with that language I can't give a guarantee that I will really comprehend the meaning of your message.
  • If you're copying files from any project to Commons, be sure to use the CommonsHelper.
  • If you're copying pics from Flickr, be sure to use Flinfo, the easy way to upload pics from Flickr.
  • If your text or image is lacking source, license, or permission, fix that instead of asking here what is wrong. There should be a message on your talk page explaining things in detail. Apologies for having to be so clear if this message is not related to the matter you would like to address.
  • Post if you want to reach me, or reply to a post below via the edit link above that post.

So long, and thanks for all the fish!

Talkback and you've got mail notices

Please place your talkback and you've got mail notices below this line in this section (no subsection necessary). I plan to delete them when I have read them. Thank you.

do not VANDALIZE MY TALK PAGE

--Rullekake (talk) 04:00, 21 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

(talk page stalker) Relax, Rullekake. He didn't vandalize your talk page: see WP:VANDAL for a more accurate description of what is considered vandalism on WP. However, I agree with you that the edit that seemed to "set you off" concerning Bidgee is concerning. This revert of you was not something that should have been reverted and warned at all that I can see. Bidgee? Are you watching? Doc talk 04:08, 21 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Precisely. --Rullekake (talk) 22:06, 21 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Under what circumstances would adding a space between a full stop and a ref tag be appropriate? I think I remember reading that it was inappropriate in WP:MOS.   — Jeff G. ツ (talk) 04:34, 21 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
You and Bidgee are overreacting. NO damage was done, but you and your pal only want notoriety, apparently. Will this behavior help with your strong desires to achieve adminship? Gosh. --Rullekake (talk) 22:06, 21 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
But I will assume good faith, It's the best for everybody. Cheers, --Rullekake (talk) 22:13, 21 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
You should start assuming good faith now by letting this go away quickly. Bidgee doesn't want you posting to his page, which is his right per WP:BLANKING. It's best now to just move along and edit productively. Doc talk 22:57, 21 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
That's my plan. It's shameful that Bidgee doesn't face me like a man, sending messengers instead. What a [redacted]. Thanks anyway. --Rullekake (talk) 01:16, 22 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Facepalm Facepalm He didn't send any messengers. Don't attack him by calling him childish names; and just carry on. Doc talk 02:04, 22 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Final Fantasy VII name changes

I changed the name Yazoo to Azul on Advent Children and Sephiroth (Final Fantasy) and I see these changes have been reverted. I can tell you, 100% positively, that Yazoo is an incorrect name, and I am not vandalising the page. Can you please explain to me why you are deleting these edits? — Preceding unsigned comment added by J3N0VACALAMITY (talk • contribs) 20:44, 21 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there JEFF, VASCO here, longtime no see,

unfortunately, vandalism again is what brings me to your attention (since i see you have reverted this vandal minutes ago): this "user" has had an anon IP blocked for unexplained removal of contents in boxes of players and introductions (please see here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/177.0.204.119), the original account (BRUNO) has also served two blocks, he does not care, he continues, did his deed also in Rúben Micael.

Attentively, keep it up - --Vasco Amaral (talk) 03:50, 22 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, but can you please help me find the original account name (it's not User:BRUNO)?   — Jeff G. ツ (talk) 03:55, 22 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

184.32.45.191 (talk · contribs)

Can you please stop reverting my changes on Shaman and All That I Am, those two albums are Santana's eighteenth and nineteenth albums respectively. Take a look at the rest of the discography. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 184.32.45.191 (talk) 03:52, 22 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, but can you please indicate that information in your Edit Summaries?   — Jeff G. ツ (talk) 03:59, 22 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Quotes supporting Inanna as planet Venus

I've declined your CSD tag on Quotes supporting Inanna as planet Venus; the crucial segment of "short article lacking suffient information to identify its subject" is "short article"; it makes the subject fairly clear in the title alone; quotes supporting the idea that Inanna was represented by or consisted of the planet Venus. Take it to AfD. Ironholds (talk) 01:38, 24 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Might it be better to merge that content with article Inanna?   — Jeff G. ツ (talk) 01:41, 24 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I'll leave that to your discretion. Ironholds (talk) 02:00, 24 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Given my lack of expertise on the subject, I've suggested a merge at Talk:Inanna#Inanna_as_the_star.2C_Venus.   — Jeff G. ツ (talk) 02:11, 24 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks

Thanks, for reverting the personal attack, Jeff. WayneSlam 02:42, 24 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

You're welcome.   — Jeff G. ツ (talk) 02:43, 24 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Replaceable fair use File:Jani Lane.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Jani Lane.jpg. I noticed the description page specifies that the media is being used under a claim of fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first non-free content criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information or which could be adequately covered with text alone. If you believe this media is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to the media description page and edit it to add {{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original replaceable fair use template.
  2. On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per our non-free content policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. We hope (talk) 15:22, 24 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

So I would like to ask why you keep removing my information from the talk page? I'm trying to do a project for a class and you're making it difficult. Is there a problem with my information? Please let me know thanks.

I'm sorry. I left the previous message but did not sign. Once again, please let me know what the issue is here.

Rojast07 (talk) 19:51, 25 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I received your message. I got my information from a reputable book and did cite the information. It's a book that contains information about honor within families, cultures, etc. I'm going to put the information back up and if you have a problem with my citation let me know. Thanks.

P.S. I'd appreciate if you wouldn't erase my information.

Rojast07 (talk) 19:56, 25 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I have done nothing of the sort since 02:05 (UTC) on the 19th. I only wrote to you after that to notify you and apologize at 15:19 that day.   — Jeff G. ツ (talk) 00:52, 26 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Edit on 'Contagion' movie page

Hi, My edit intends to show the error that crept into the movie cast list. I do not know how to fix the cast pane. So I added a comment to the Plot section to fix the casting list on the right. Please feel free to remove my comment and please fix the cast list (replace Mark Wahlberg with Matt Damon). Thanks Kal — Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.29.242.58 (talk) 03:47, 26 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry about that. While I appreciate your intentions, your methods could use improvement:
  • We don't comment on article pages, we comment on talk and other discussion-type pages, like Talk:Contagion (film).
  • We read the messages posted on our user talk pages carefully, and follow the links in those messages.
  • And we don't blindly revert the ClueBots.
I have reverted the vandalism that concerned you, and the warnings on your user talk page.   — Jeff G. ツ (talk) 14:54, 26 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The Trail of tears is a Historically inaccurate name for the Trail of BLOOD and Tears. this needs to be corrected immediately. I tried to fix myself, and you would not allow. Trying to edit out Blood from the true name is wrong. Fix it now.

I had family who were beaten on the Trail of Blood and Tears. They BLED on the trail of blood and tears. A lot of Indians did not survive because of the Brutal treatment they endured. Does Wiki want to hide this? The trail of Blood and Tears was an American Indian Holocaust. To edit out the word "Blood" is very disrespectful to those who suffered and the Families who died and those who barely survived this travesty. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.228.80.4 (talk) 03:16, 28 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, but you changed the name of the image reference, without changing the name of the image file. You may try to justify changing the name of the image file on its associated talk page.   — Jeff G. ツ (talk) 03:19, 28 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The more accurate Name The Trail of Blood and Tears

I Corrected the name again and was given a level 2 warning by Falcon8765 for filling out Wiki's own request as to "WHY DID YOU MAKE THESE CHANGES" Why do they ask, if all they are going to do is REPRIMAND you for telling them WHY??? This system is flawed and I need my Complaint escalated to a higher up.

want a few references for the True Historically Accurate name "The Trail Of Blood And Tears"??

1.) http://www.ex@miner.com/foreign-policy-in-baltimore/prayers-held-for-independence-of-balochistan-from-pakistan-iran-u-s-church

9th Paragraph: "The A.F.B. activist recalled the atrocities meted out to the Native Americans in United States two centuries ago in the Trail of Blood and Tears of Cherokee Indians, the Sand Creek Massacre of November 29, 1864 and the massacre of the Yuki of Northern California (1856-1860). "The situation in Balochistan today is an exact replica of those sad chapters of U.S. history and you can help us stop this," the A.F.B. activist urged the gathering."

As Jeff said, you may try to discuss on the talk page of the article...however, I can tell you that none of these qualify as reliable sources. I went to Google books and haven't turned up any reference supporting the statements that you are making. Maybe you might find one.

No. All of those words are on that page but not together in the phrase that you are claiming. All that shows is that the word blood shows up on the page that Trail of Tears shows up.
