Re: slash fiction on the Mr. Spock and James T. Kirk pages:

It just occurred to be that it might be a better idea to inform you on your talk page than to reply to you on mine, but the response is over there. I'm still iffy on adding a "see also: slash fiction" to any fictional character articles, but if you feel it's relevant, I won't object to it being put back. You probably know more about Star Trek than me. --Ardonik 00:03, Jul 14, 2004 (UTC)

As fate would have it, there is an extant reference to slash fiction in the Harry Potter article, under "fan fiction." I stand...corrected...sort of. --Ardonik 00:09, Jul 14, 2004 (UTC)

Tuvix

I was glad to see that you created an article for "Tuvix". It's not one of the episodes I expected someone to write about. In any case, a fairly significant part of the article on "Tuvix" describes the events of the episode "Riddles". What do you think about moving that information to a new article on "Riddles"?

Acegikmo1 18:00, 17 Aug 2004 (UTC)

Thanks for your response. I'm sorry I wasn't more specific; there is no article for "Riddles". When I read what you'd contributed to "Tuvix", it seemed to me that the information would be better suited for a new, seperate article on "Riddles". The "Tuvix" page could linke to such an article and describe the overlapping themes of the two episodes.

Acegikmo1 21:21, 5 Sep 2004 (UTC)

That sounds good. ShutterBugTrekker 19:44, 8 Sep 2004 (UTC)

Star Trek articles

Hi, glad to see someone else taking care of the much neglected Star Trek articles. I'm currently concentrating my efforts on DS9. I'm trying to make it such that all DS9 related articles have links that go to similarly completed pages. No red links! Also, I am trying to put a relevant picture on every DS9 related page: they make reading articles so much more pleasant, don't you think? I'm slowly adding episode information.. starting with the 6th season (my favorite) right now. It's slow going and would appreciate any help you can dish out. EDGE 22:49, Sep 27, 2004 (UTC)

I'm watching the fourth season of DS9 and the third season of VGR, so most of my edits will have to do with that time period. I like the pictures too. I just learned how to take a still from a DVD with WinDVD Player the other day. ShutterBugTrekker 18:41, 3 Oct 2004 (UTC)

Harry Potter 47 for you

At the end of the first Harry Potter movie, Slytheryn has 472 points. 207.74.196.20 22:39, 28 Dec 2004 (UTC)

That's a substring 47. Please let me know if you find a stronger 47 in the Harry Potter books or movies. ShutterBugTrekker 17:33, 6 Jan 2005 (UTC)

"You've just gone without 4 7 years just about." I guess that was intetnional? You asked about 1771561 (re tribbles) - it's 11^6. Rich Farmbrough 23:34, 25 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

future episodes

very nice. I didn't mean to generally pan future episode articles just stubs like the season 5 episode that was deleted. I personally wouldnt make articles on future eps but thats only because i like to stay spoiler free ive got no objections to other people doing it if they can make a complete article.

Cleanup

It was decided upon a few weeks or month ago in the discussions regarding wikipedia cleanup and such that the proper format would be to intergrate as much as possible into various forms, but if necessary use the categories of Cultural references, notes, triva, and other....in that order. So if one was going through all of the pages this would be the template used to help keep everything in one standard uniform template. A few days ago all the episodes for family guy were changed that werent previously in this correct format, as the cleanup process is underway. Grande13 00:23, 29 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

You referred to a non-existent discussion. The real discussion is taking place at Talk:List of Family Guy episodes. ShutterBugTrekker 23:45, 2 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

A request for assistance

Would you support the concept of moving the Earhart "myths" to a separate page or article? The reason for my suggesting this is that the main article should be an accurate and scholarly work while the speculation and conspiracy theories surrounding the disappearance of Amelia Earhart are interesting, they belong in a unique section. Most researchers, as you know, discount the many theories and speculation that has arisen in the years following her last flight. Go onto the Earhart discussion page and register your vote/comments...and a Happy New Year to you as well. Bzuk 02:50 3 January 2007 (UTC).

I'm sure some researchers are interested in studying the conspiracy theories and the various ways in which Amelia Earhart has been mythologized. However, I support your idea of the move to a separate article (while maintaining a summary at the original page) only because the article as it is is kind of unwieldily long. ShutterBugTrekker 23:16, 5 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Whoa, there, ShutterBugTrekker. Your move is a bit precipitous considering the majority opinion has not yet decided for this action, in fact, revert it for now and check the discussion page to see where the survey is going. I believe it is the usual course of action to wait at least a week before making a major change that is being canvassed for support. At this point, I think the majority view is to keep the section within the main body since the article of Amelia Earhart is not large enough to warrant a restructuring or division into associated articles. Bzuk 01:12 6 January 2007 (UTC).

I agree. I've undone your change for now and deleted the article. It will be easy enough to recreate if consensus decides to go that way. --Guinnog 06:56, 6 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

That's what I get for answering "A request for assistance." Whatever. ShutterBugTrekker 22:24, 7 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

License tagging for Image:Sela TNGRedemption.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Sela TNGRedemption.jpg.

Masters of Science Fiction

Will you be watching the premiere of Masters of Science Fiction next month? Cromulent Kwyjibo 01:02, 31 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, but on TiVo. Contrary to what network execs might think, some sci-fi fans do have things to do on Saturdays besides watch Star Trek reruns. ShutterBugTrekker 23:03, 2 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

47 (number) and "super-thin" text

That image was going to get deleted from the article by being in the inline text, so I put it back where it was, but used the "thumb" tag instead of the "frame" tag. I really have no clue what you refer to as "super-thin" text. As it was before, "There exists a 47 society,[4] an outgrowth of a movement started at Pomona College," showed up on the first line next to the picture. To me, 14 words is not super-thin. What screen resolution are you using? Is it less than the standard 1024x768? Admiral Memo 22:37, 9 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Family Guy reference desk proposal

I linked your recent comment on Talk:Family Guy from a discussion thread on WP:FG about the possibility of starting a Family Guy reference desk. Anyone who feels we should be answering general Questions about Family Guy is encouraged to participate in this discussion. There are ways we can do this. / edg ☺ ★ 22:35, 19 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

You're back

I guess you missed the question I asked you in the AfD. You commented with some kind of implied distaste about the Family Guy wiki transwiki. I asked you what you meant by this, but never got a reply. Can you fill me in on this? Preferably on Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Culturally significant words and phrases from Family Guy, but if private is better for you that's fine. / edg ☺ ★ 14:31, 5 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Happy Labor Day to you too. My problem with the FG transwiki is how lazily it was done. Select all, copy, paste. There was no thought given to whether or not the FG wiki has the same templates Wikipedia has. If I ever do such a slipshod transwiki to Memory Alpha, shoot me. ShutterBugTrekker 14:38, 5 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It's my first such effort and I basicly followed instructions. FWIW, I spent a lot of time linking the Edit history on the Talk page, but as for the article, I don't know how the Family Guy Wiki project wants to handle alien templates, and did not want to make this decision for them. It would have been easy to substitute all those templates and leave a lot of good looking but non-reusable crud. I could have began duplicating all the used Wikipedia templates on the Family Guy Wiki, and have all this work wasted if they decided not to accept the article or use the templates.

What I chose to do instead was leave a message on their main Talk page asking what they wanted done. So far there's been no reply. I create their Transwiki log and I'm offering to help in the way the regulars at that wiki want, rather than imposing my contribution on them. Technically, translating the imported article to their system is entirely their responsibility, not mine, but I'll help out any way I can.

And after all this, I don't really like having my work disparaged. Not that you care. Keep it up and I guess I'll just have to get used to it, but I'm asking you to cut it out. / edg ☺ ★ 16:58, 5 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

You asked what I meant by my first comment and I answered. ShutterBugTrekker 17:13, 6 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

In-universe tags on Star Trek articles

Hi, I noticed your edits to William Riker and your comment in the edit summary about the in-universe tag. I just thought I'd inform you that per your request and the tag, I added a summary about this in the discussion page in the article. What is needed for this, and all other tagged character bios is an out-of-universe perspective. The article should be primarily about real-world aspects, like fan reception, casting information, character development (writing), critical commentary, things like this are what is needed to bring these articles up to code per say. If you have any of this information, and you have its sources, then by all means add it to the article and cite it as well. I would though start discussions on the talk pages of the changed articles if you have any questions about the material in question. Hope this helps you out. Ejfetters 00:17, 8 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, that does help me and other Wikipedia editors who are fans of Trek. Without those clarifications on the talk pages, the in-universe tags seemed like an effort to systematically harrass Trek fans.

The real-world info is stuff that I've been wanting to add to the articles. I'm gonna have to dig out my old Star Trek: Communicator magazines (do they still make that magazine?). The official Trek magazine is so much in-universe that it probably would be of no help in the in-universe clean-up. ShutterBugTrekker 23:03, 14 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Blocked

After investigating a report at Wikipedia:Requests_for_checkuser/Case/PrimeFan, I have come to the conclusion that this account, along with a large number of other accounts, are all being operated by the same person as abusive sockpuppets. Operating multiple accounts is not permitted when they are used to edit the same articles and debates. However, due to the nature of the IP addresses involved, it is possible that some of these users have coincidentally shared a computer or IP address. If this is the case, you may request to be unblocked by emailing the blocking admin or the unblock mailing list with your official University email address. This is to prevent one person from spoofing the admins with multiple free throwaway email accounts such as gmail or yahoomail. (Your email address will not be stored or used other than for verification.) If this is a misunderstanding I apologize in advance, and your account will be unblocked as soon as you provide proof that you are a separate individual. Be advised two checkusers examined this case and agreed on the results. — Rlevse • Talk • 03:01, 4 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Non-free rationale for File:Sela TNGRedemption.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Sela TNGRedemption.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under non-free content criteria, but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable. Please go to the file description page, and edit it to include a non-free rationale.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified the non-free rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' 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 "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page.

Proposed deletion of The Discarded

The article The Discarded has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

The coverage (references, external links, etc.) does not seem sufficient to justify this article passing Wikipedia:General notability guideline requirementnor the more detailed Wikipedia:Notability (books) supplement. WP:BEFORE did not reveal any significant coverage on Gnews, Gbooks or Gscholar. If you disagree and deprod this, please explain how it meets them on the talk page here in the form of "This article meets criteria A and B because..." and ping me back through WP:ECHO or by leaving a note at User talk:Piotrus. Thank you.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. _{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 02:22, 17 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
