You do not seem to grasp the fact that Wikipedia is not a tv guide. Don't add stuff that's going to be inaccurate real soon, like air times and recent air dates. If you're going to add broadcast information, do it in such a way that it remains accurate in the long run and is relevant to the reader. People do not go look up Irish air times for this week's episode of The King of Queens on Wikipedia, so this is not relevant. -- Atlan ( talk) 14:16, 22 April 2014 (UTC)
Please stop setting infobox image sizes to 300px. Lead images should not be set to greater than 300px but when set to 300px they cause the infobox to exceed the 300px limit. This is why we normally set infonbox images to 220-275px. -- AussieLegend ( ✉) 18:47, 4 May 2014 (UTC)

Please do not change TV series infoboxes to use different colours to the default, a you did to
Good Morning Britain (2014 TV programme). There is a long-standing consensus that only certain TV series are to use other than the default infobox colours. This is why the bgcolour
and colour text
are not documented at {{
Infobox television}}. TV series that have been authorised to use other than the default infobox colouring are included in
Template:Infobox television/colour. If you believe a TV series should use non-default colours, please gain consensus for that at
Template talk:Infobox television/colour. --

Hi there, I'd really like to stop having to revert your edits on those 24 characters articles, but you keep undoing my edits, and it seems you have yet to read the Wikipedia guideline, WP:JUSTPLOT (plot-only summaries of fictional works), which is what Wikipedia is not. This is why outside wikis like the the 24 Wikia exists, to house this type of "in-universe" information. But, this is Wikipedia, articles need to have notable real-world information for them to exist. Unless you plan on expanding each of these articles beyond a plot summary (casting of the actor, writing and development of character, reception to character, etc.) and beyond what is already in the 24: Live Another Day article, then there is no reason for these articles to exist. I hope you understand. Thank you. Drovethrughosts ( talk) 21:15, 25 July 2014 (UTC)

Hello, and
welcome to Wikipedia. You appear to be engaged in an
edit war with one or more editors according to your reverts at
List of Four Rooms episodes. Although repeatedly
reverting or undoing another editor's contributions may seem necessary to protect your preferred version of a page, on Wikipedia this is usually seen as obstructing the
normal editing process, and often creates animosity between editors. Instead of edit warring, please discuss the situation with the editor(s) involved and try to reach a
consensus on the
talk page.
If editors continue to revert to their preferred version they are likely to be blocked from editing. This isn't done to punish an editor, but to prevent the disruption caused by edit warring. 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, breaking the three-revert rule is very likely to lead to a block.
Please note that you have already made 3 reverts in the past 7 hours, so you are at 3RR now. Another revert will result in a 3RR breach. AussieLegend ( ✉) 16:25, 1 August 2014 (UTC)
Thanks for uploading File:How I Met Your Mother The Whole Story Seasons 1-9 DVD.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image 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 images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. AussieLegend ( ✉) 17:06, 6 August 2014 (UTC)

Your recent editing history at Good Morning Britain (2014 TV programme) shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.
To avoid being blocked, instead of reverting please consider using the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Hi JohnGormleyJG, I'd like to make some comments regarding this edit: section titles should not be bolded or contain links per the Manual of Style ( MOS:BOLD, MOS:HEADINGS), the bios of the people listed are copied directly from the source which is a copyright violation, and the references being used are bare references (just the url).

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. This is a notice to inform you that a tag has been placed on Arthur & George (TV Series) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here. — Masum Ibn Musa Conversation 14:41, 2 March 2015 (UTC)
Any website can put up a poll. But that does not mean that an otherwise unremarkable poll needs to be specifically singled out with that much weight placed on it in the presentation. The BuzzFeed poll is notable primarily because it was BuzzFeed that helped further spread awareness of this phenomenon, but it also does not need to be weighted so heavily in the presentation.

The page is now back to a version that says he is coach at charlton. This is incorrect. If you could revert it to the page I created (with the addition of that line) that would be great. Thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.159.129.65 ( talk) 14:30, 23 June 2015 (UTC)

Hi,
You made a mistake in calculating Cyprus's point difference. They ended the group stage with +50 point difference, but you put down that they scored 93 and conceded 37 or 38, which would give them a different point difference. They had +50, and it went down to who got more points (had they been level on small points they still would have gone through as Ukraine had more yellow cards).
Sorry for not mmentioning the changes properly, I was sure I commented those changes.

![]() Welcome to the GA Cup! In less than 72 hours, the competition will begin! Before you all start reviewing nominations and reassessments we want to make sure you understand the following:
Also, rather than creating a long list on what to remember, make sure you have read the "Scoring", "Submissions", and "FAQ" pages. Now some of you are probably wondering how on earth the rounds will work. The rounds will work in a similar fashion as the previous competition, with the exception of the first round. Round 1 will have everyone compete in one big pool. Depending on the final number of participants after sign-ups close, a to-be-determined number of participants will move on (highest scorers will move on) to Round 2. We guarantee that the top 15 will move on (this number may change), so make sure you aim for those top positions! Moving on to Round 2, participants will be split into pools. The pools will be determined by a computer program that places participants by random. More details regarding Round 2 will be sent out at the end of Round 1. It is important to note that the GA Cup will run on UTC time, so make sure you know what time that is for where you live! On that note, the GA Cup will start on July 1 at 0:00:01 UTC; Round 1 will end on July 29 at 23:59:59 UTC; Round 2 will commence on August 1 at 0:00:01 UTC. All reviews must be started after or on the start time of the round. If you qualify for Round 2 but do not complete a review before the end of Round 1, the review can be carried over to Round 2; however that review will not count for Round 1. Prior to the start of the the second round, participants who qualify to move on will be notified. Finally, if you know anyone else that might be interesting in participating, let them know! Sign-ups close on July 15 so there is still plenty of time to join in on the action! If you have any further questions, contact one of the judges or leave a message here. After sign-ups close, check the Pools page as we will post the exact number of participants that will move on to the next round. Because this number will be determined past the halfway mark of Round 1, we encourage you to aim to be in the top 15 as the top 15 at the end of the round are guaranteed to move on. Cheers from 3family6, Dom497, Figureskatingfan, Jaguar and MrWooHoo. To subscribe or unsubscribe to future GA Cup newsletter, please add or remove your name to

Hi John,
I'm unclear what information you believe to be incorrect, or what is wrong with the citations I provided:
Tensions in London ran even higher with the approach of 23 April
St George's Day in England -- the Friday preceding the bombing -- due also in part to three previous IRA-related bombings in England that year: the two
Warrington bomb attacks on 20 March and a bomb attack outside of Harrods on 28 January.
[1] Although another bombing attack in London was not unexpected with threats "every night, virtually", the location so close to the
Baltic Exchange bombing was.

Hello, I would like you to please reverse your quick fail of the nomination. Firstly, it is not uncommon for articles to be given time to address any issues. Secondly, you are mistaken on a few of your assessments. It is not necessary to have references in the lead or a syopsis. The lead summarizes the entire article and therefore all references are in the body of the article. Honestly, I would just like a second opinion. You may notice that it already passed a "Did you know..." review and the issues that you brought up were not mentioned.-- Deoliveirafan ( talk) 00:36, 9 July 2015 (UTC)

![]() Greetings, GA Cup competitors! Wednesday saw the end of Round 1. The Rambling Man, who was eliminated during the first round in our last competition, earned an impressive 513 points, reviewed twice as many articles (26) as any other competitor. It was a tight race for second for first-time competitors BenLinus1214 and Tomandjerry211, who finished second and third with 243 and 224 points, respectively. Close behind was Wugapodes, who earned 205 points. The change in our points system had an impact on scoring. It was easier to earn higher points, although the key to success didn't change from last time, which was choosing articles with older nomination dates. For example, most of the articles The Rambling Man reviewed were worth 18 points in the nomination date category, and he benefited from it. BenLinus1214 reviewed the longest article, A Simple Plan (at 26,536 characters, or 4,477 words), the 1994 film starring Bill Paxton, Billy Bob Thornton, and Bridget Fonda and directed by Sam Raimi, and earned all possible 5 points in that category. After feedback from our participants, the judges slightly changed the rule about review length this time out. Shorter reviews are now allowed, as long as reviewers give nominators an opportunity to address their feedback. Shorter reviews are subject to the judges' discretion; the judges will continue their diligence as we continue the competition. Despite having fewer contestants at the beginning of Round 1 than last time, 132 articles were reviewed, far more than the 117 articles that were reviewed in Round 1 of the inaugural GA Cup. All of us involved should be very proud of what we've accomplished thus far. The judges are certain that Round 2 will be just as successful. 16 contestants have moved onto Round 2 and have been randomly placed in 4 groups of 4, with the top 2 in each pool progressing to Round 3, as well as the top participant ("9th place") of all remaining competitors. Round 2 has already begun and will end on August 29 at 23:59:59 UTC. Information about Round 2 and the pools can be found here. Good luck and remember to have fun!

We had one withdrawal early in Round 2, so he was replaced by the next-highest scorer from Round 1. Round 2's highest scorer was Pool D's Tomandjerry211, who earned an impressive 366 points; he also reviewed the most articles (19). Close behind was Zwerg Nase, also in Pool D, at 297 points and 16 articles. The wildcard slot went to Good888. Congrats to all! Round 3 will have 9 competitors in 3 pools. The key to moving forward was reviewing articles with the longest nomination dates, as it has been in every round up to now. For example, 2 competitors only needed to review 2 articles each to win in their pools, and each article were either from the pink nomination box (20 points) or had languished in the queue for over 5 months (18 points). The GA Cup continues to be a success in many ways, even with fewer competitors this time. For some reason, the competitors in the 2015 GA Cup have reviewed fewer articles in Round 2, which has made the judges scratch their head in confusion. We've speculated many reasons for that: the summer months and vacations, our competitors are saving their strength for the final rounds, or they all live in the Pacific Northwest and the heavy wildfire smoke has affected their thinking. Whatever the reason, Round 2 competitors reviewed almost 100 articles, which is a significant impact in the task of reviewing articles for GA status. We've considered that the lower participation this competition is due to timing, so we intend to discuss the best time frame for future GA Cups. For Round 3, participants have been placed randomly in 3 pools of 3 contestants each; the top editor in each pool will progress, as well as the top 2 of all remaining users. Round 3 will start on September 1 at 0:00:01 UTC and end on September 28 at 23:59:59 UTC. Information about Round 3 and the pools can be found here. Good luck to the remaining contestants, and have fun! Cheers from Figureskatingfan, 3family6 and Jaguar, and MrWooHoo.

There are some films waiting for assessment in Wikipedia:WikiProject Film/Assessment. Please consider. -- 106.66.180.39 ( talk) 13:20, 12 September 2015 (UTC)
Please stop removing references from this article. Although a reference is not required, removing a reference that is already included is not action that should be taken per WP:V. Also, the episode counts for each season are not referenced. Although an episode has aired, there is no source stating that the number of episodes listed actually aired, while some weeks aired reruns or skipped episodes altogether.

Could I ask you why you've deleted series 19 and series 20 cast lists that some of us have put hard work into doing them for the past year. JJloose ( talk) 00:06, 25 September 2015 (UTC)
Hi. Can you offer your opinion in this discussion? Thanks. Nightscream ( talk) 04:44, 27 September 2015 (UTC)
Should we go ahead and close this? It has been a more than a month and has two supports, no oppositions. Usually it is closed by now, and I forgot about it. I don't know how to do the "whole closing a discussion" thing, so if you know how I'd say go for it and merge this sucker. If you don't, I'll go ahead request an administrator do it. Corkythe hornetfan 22:31, 29 September 2015 (UTC)
Do you still have all the lists? So I can make my own website for this but I need all the line ups that you took down :) JJloose ( talk) 00:30, 30 September 2015 (UTC)
I mean for example the tables that has Monday and the underneath had Ruth Langsford etc etc and it was on for series 19 cast list and a series 20 one until you deleted them :) — Preceding unsigned comment added by JJloose ( talk • contribs) 20:35, 30 September 2015 (UTC)
Could I please bring this table back in, as me and several other editors have worked hard on this, as other editors and myself of this page are quite annoyed of your constant disruptive edits of this.

Can I just add why do you say "this but it is too trivia" when it's not hard to understand and it helps Wikipedia editors like yourself and myself who edit that page regularly to categorise panelists in to which seat they sit in, the amount of appearances, etc ( User talk:Bob N1C2)13.22, 27 October 2015 —Preceding undated comment added 13:22, 27 October 2015 (UTC)
Well youre right it no longer needs to be on wikia as, there is now a forum of TV guides of presenters, p.s. Could you please leave the bit where it's says John Stapleton : 13 May 2014 - 22 July 2015 as I have researched it. Thank you User talk: Bob N1C2 —Preceding undated comment added 16:19, 27 October 2015 (UTC)
Hi mate, you reverted my change on the Fiji National football team page, if you look at the fixtures and results, they played American Samoa on the 27th August, so it should read caps and goals updated after game against American Samoa.
Cheers

Although you did not make the top 16 of Round 1, you did participate and you still deserve a barnstar. Thank you so much for being a part of the 2nd Annual GA Cup and we hope to see you next year! MrWooHoo ( talk) 23:27, 1 November 2015 (UTC) |

site bans,
topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The
arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to

Seeing as you seem to have an attachment to this particular article, I suggest you take a close look at the diffs and see what content was added, replaced or moved: no presenters were added nor removed from the infobox in my edit. Please do not revert entire edits without taking into account the contributions of other Wikipedia users - this is extremely basic policy and acting with the civil attitude that is expected of you. I'd advise you to refrain from entering into arguments with other users about a trivial listing of television presenters. If you are so hellbent on the inclusion of a full list, then feel free to edit the article and add/remove names at will - but reverting entire edits (which includes restoring references and rewording weasel words into proper English within numerous sections of an article) demonstrates particularly poor judgement.

![]() Greetings, all! We would like to announce the start of the 3rd GA Cup, a competition that seeks to encourage the reviewing of Good article nominations! Thus far, there have been two GA Cups; both were successful in reaching our goals of significantly reducing the traditionally long queue at GAN, so we're doing it again. Currently, there are over 500 nominations listed and about 450 articles waiting to be reviewed. We hope that we can again make an impact this time. The 3rd GA Cup will begin on March 1, 2016. Four rounds are currently scheduled (which will bring the competition to a close on July 31, 2016), but this may change based on participant numbers. There will be slight changes to the scoring system, based upon feedback we've received in the months since GA Cup #2. The sign-up and submissions process will remain the same. We're also looking to spice up the competition a bit by running parallel competitions. Finally, there's a possibility of assisting a WikiProject Good Articles backlog drive in the last three weeks of February, before our competition. Please stay tuned for more information as we get it. Sign-ups for the upcoming competition are currently open and will close on February 20, 2015. Everyone is welcome to join; new and old editors, so sign-up now! If you have any questions, take a look at the FAQ page and/or contact one of the judges. Cheers from 3family6, Figureskatingfan, Jaguar and MrWooHoo.
