Your submission at Articles for creation

[edit]
Thank you for your recent submission to Articles for Creation. Your article submission has been reviewed. Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. Please view your submission to see the comments left by the reviewer. You are welcome to edit the submission to address the issues raised, and resubmit once you feel they have been resolved.
Thanks for all your hard work. Use "wikilinks" instead of citing Wikipedia pages as references. For example: John T. Scott was an American sculptor as opposed to John T. Scott [1]... Cheers! Stella BATPHONEGROOVES 04:26, 26 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the encouragement and for your time - left you a response on your talk to this last comment... I've used wikilinks throughout my article where it seemed appropriate... somehow referencing the names of episodes that way seems odd. There are no articles with those names, and likely there never will be, so that doesn't seem appropriate. I can change every single reference to a title of an episode to point to the syfy.com website, but that just seems like a ridiculous waste of time when the only purpose of the citation itself is for the name of an episode title which is going to the same everywhere.Electprogeny (talk) 05:00, 26 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
No need for frustration. I didn't make the guidelines, but I do agree with most of them as they work to maintain the integrity of the articles for historic purposes... IMDB information is user-generated (believe it or not); information is typically added by site users as opposed to the actual networks or movie studios. Same, of course, with fan sites, plus they tend to be biased toward the subject. I understand what you are trying to do; as an alternative, I would like to suggest adding episode information to the Warehouse Season articles instead of making this article more congested. In sum: Focus on the subject, the character. If you are compelled to include episode details, add it to the season lists. Cheers! Stella BATPHONEGROOVES 05:08, 26 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Pretty sure there's NEVER a NEED for frustration. :p In any regard, I'm nearly finished pointing all the references to they syfy.com website (only 4 more to do) and will be resubmitting. Nothing I've stated is about the episodes - it's ALL about the character's persona, motivations, associated data points, and growth through the seasons. Thanks!

Okay, I've edited all those links so they no longer refer to the wiki page and resubmitted the article for review. Thanks so much for all your assistance!

Beyond the references (which I am cleaning up right now), the article still needs a little work. See Douglas Fargo for a good example. I will wrap up this round of editing shortly; please do not edit until the blue box at the top of the page is gone. Cheers! Stella BATPHONEGROOVES 05:51, 26 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I'm headed to sleep. If you like, please review the edits that I made to the first paragraph. Also, please be sure to take a look at Douglas Fargo and work toward emulating this entry. I removed the image link on your article (couldn't find it). Cheers! Stella BATPHONEGROOVES 06:16, 26 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Wells

[edit]

I'm simply trying to rewrite the page without in-universe references, as the template at the top requests. Are you telling me that you have a problem with that? --Bold Clone (talk) 02:34, 27 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

It was already NOT in-universe and was being reviewed by a wiki-helper for the tag removal. Please do not make any further deletions as your actions are clearly vandalism. Electprogeny (talk) 02:36, 27 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Please remember to assume good faith when dealing with other editors, which you did not do on User talk:Bold Clone. Thank you. AussieLegend (talk) 03:21, 27 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Sure thing, though I had been talking with a wiki-helper in the live chat at the time that all occurred and was given instructions on what to do to revert it. I have left a note for you on your talk page. Electprogeny (talk) 03:24, 27 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Mel Brooks, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page The Producers. 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.
