Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but your recent edit removed maintenance templates from Alex Karev. When removing maintenance templates, please be sure to either resolve the problem that the template refers to, or give a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, as your removal of this template has been reverted.

Hi. I'm really all very new at this so I apologize for the mistake. I don't know exactly if this is the correct way to communicate back but if isn't, I'm sure one of you will let me know. I'm available through AIM with the same user name, so if you're ever on, please feel free to IM me.
In regard to your question, yes I'd like to help. I just did some minor changes to everyone's infobox in terms of occupation and title. For example, I moved Chief Resident from Bailey's occupation to title, considering her actual occupation is a general surgeon, much like Chief of Surgery for Webber. Other things I noticed was Hunt didn't have a title when his doctor's coat has post-nominal titles of MD and FACS. I added an Arizona Robbins page, and yes it is very bare since I'm still new to all these and I didn't have alot of information to go by.
Anyway I'm looking forward to this.

Hey, I was wondering what you thought of us starting a Grey's Anatomy WikiProject? It would really just be a place to centralise discussion on improving the articles, and somewhere to refer other interested editors to, but I think it might come in handy. If you think it's a good idea, just let me know and I'll put one together! :) Frickative 14:34, 22 February 2009 (UTC)
Yea, I'd be happy to join. I'm excited about this as well. Dabrain930 ( talk) 22:50, 22 February 2009 (UTC)
Thanks for uploading Image:Hermione Granger.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 orphaned, meaning that it is 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).
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 Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Skier Dude ( talk) 04:06, 9 April 2009 (UTC)
Not to try and steal you away from wikipedia or anything but just a heads up on a website I'm a b'crat on, the greys anatomy wiki [1]. In case you don't know what a wiki is, its basically an encyclopedia (in this case its on greys anatomy). I see that you're interested in GA and we're looking for new editors so please check it out!- 2Anthony4 ( talk) 13:54, 4 June 2009 (UTC)
I've reverted the change in infobox to the Smallville character pages. For one, I cannot stand those boxes. They are based on a set formula, which means you cannot change/alter them without altering the primary coding (which in effect alters every character page that uses that box). Secondly, per WP:WAF, infoboxes should contain only the most important info needed to understand the character. Who they had a relationship with doesn't help you understand them, because unless you've read the article you won't know who these people are. Occupation may or may not help you understand, depending on the job, but in Clark's case he is not a reporter - at least not yet. He's a copy boy, who has written a few articles for the Daily Planet (this was stated a few times during the past season). Also, fictional characters don't have "final appearances" even when they've been killed off. Being fictional means they never actually die. The only important appearance is the first appearance. 21:28, 25 June 2009 (UTC)
I like most of the changes you made to the article, since it resembles the featured article Lost (TV series) in formatting, but I changed and or tweaked a few of the minor changes. For one, the lead was too long and went into detail that should ideally not be in the lead (though some leads are just as long, but there are better reasons for those). The lead is supposed to simply summarize the article after all. The detail about the creation of the show should be in the Production section, which is where I put it, not the lead. I am also thinking about putting the Series timeline section in the Production section, instead of where you put it (as part of the Plot section). It seems to be just as relevant to the creation of the series, given the way he designed the timeline.
Also, do we really need a guest artists section in the article? I was tempted to remove it, and still am, since we already have the Music section (which notes guest stars, who are usually of a musical nature within the series). I would leave a bit of the relevant information in, but that messy bullet-point list noting each and every guest artist is not appealing Wikipedia-wise. On the other hand, neither is linking and naming as many guest stars as we do in the Music section. I would not think that all the guest stars need to be named.

Sorry I didn't reply earlier i've only just checked my talk page. The gossip girl page is a complete mess. It defiantly needs a huge change. I would be happy to team up with you. My next changes will be to create a season two article as I need to finish what I started. Your edits so far have greatly improved the article. I too tried to change the template and it got changed straight away, which was frustrating since obviously ours were following wikipedia's standards and the current one doesn't. Keep up the good work and I will start on a season two article SmallHill ( talk) 14:35, 8 August 2009 (UTC)
Thanks for uploading File:Gossip Girl - five regulars from the 1 season.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Ellen Parsons.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use.

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Patty_Hewes.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. 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 Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Game of Thrones (season 2), you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Caucasian, Skins and Showtime ( check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Hi. I see in a recent addition to Human rights in North Macedonia you included material from a webpage that is available under a compatible Creative Commons Licence. That's okay, but you have to give attribution so that our readers are made aware that you copied the prose rather than wrote it yourself. It's also required under the terms of the license. I've added the attribution for this particular instance. Please make sure that you follow this licensing requirement when copying from compatibly-licensed material in the future. — Diannaa ( talk) 14:23, 15 March 2021 (UTC)
