James Bond film series has been nominated for a good article reassessment. Please leave your comments and help us to return the article to good article quality. If concerns are not addressed during the review period, the good article status will be removed from the article. Reviewers' concerns are here.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/WP:CHICAGO/WP:LOTM) 02:56, 7 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Yang is a classical guitarist known thoughout all of Asia which represents 3 billion people so please do not simply vandalise the article List_of_classical_guitarists by simply ripping out her name without any discussion.

So create an article. In Wikipedia terms a red link equates to non-notability. Oh and by the way, the next time you leave a comment here have the decency to sign it. --WebHamster 19:00, 14 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hang on, what the fuck are you talking about? I didn't remove Yang Xuefei it's still there, what I did do is supply the wikilink to the PRC. Perhaps you should lay off the rice wine and check your facts before having a go at me. --WebHamster 19:06, 14 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Ahhh, got it. The trolling fuckwit Yiwentang can't even go on holiday without thinking about me. How touching. --WebHamster 19:22, 14 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

A Permanent Lapse of Reason? Or just a bit of Meddling? ;) Parrot of Doom (talk) 20:18, 14 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

yet another example of the incivilty of Kurt Adkins and all his various socks.86.41.81.228 (talk) 09:16, 26 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I've made a start here. It shouldn't take long to whip it into shape. Parrot of Doom (talk) 16:25, 21 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The only bit I'm having trouble with is the final paragraph in the Background section, which contains some interesting material I'm not able to find a source for. Google Books is sick of me and won't let me read Mabbett's book any more, so I'm a bit stuck now. It'll have to go if I can't find a source for it. The rest of the article is mostly done though, and needs a copyedit to tidy up my writing, and citations for the re-releases. It was a fairly good article to begin with, so I didn't have to do much. I'll copy it across now. Parrot of Doom (talk) 13:25, 22 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Cheers, I'll see if I can find the books. They're all packed away in boxes ready for a move I never made 12 months ago :) --WebHamster 20:35, 22 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, there may be a bit of an edit war coming up unfortunately, see the article's recent history. I didn't bother posting anything on the talk page as the last two times I did so, nobody responded. Parrot of Doom (talk) 20:37, 22 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry WebHamster, I hadn't seen that. That's exactly the kind of article that we need more of. --Malleus Fatuorum 00:02, 22 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

No probs, I was only taking the piss :) As for the article. I was just fascinated as it showed up when I was doing research on BV zoo. In fact the article had mentioned it but some editor deleted the info as irrelevant. Some of the detritus of the gaol demolition was used to line the floor of the lake. Jennison was a canny bugger who used whatever he could get hold of :) --WebHamster 20:39, 22 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, I must of been bit on auto-pilot, I try to keep things with text at legible sizes when it seems like the image is useless otherwise. I'm afraid that one slipped through. You may want to either remove the {{Non-free reduced}} and replace it with a {{Non-free reduce}} or remove it altogether. As it stands, it'll be put into to administrative backlog in 7 days, when it shouldn't be. Thanks for letting me know. RandomStringOfCharacters (talk) 03:04, 24 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, you are mentioned in a discussion at ANI here and please stop reverting at the Richard Gere page as you are close to a 3RR violation. Ta. Off2riorob (talk) 20:44, 28 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I already have stopped, although how a 'see also' is a BLP violation I have no idea. --WebHamster 20:46, 28 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Well, if using common but completely unproven urban legends about a supposed incident between a rodent and an actor is not a massive violation of WP:BLP, I'm not sure what is ... (talk→ BWilkins ←track) 22:12, 28 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

It's only a BLP violation if it continues the rumour, not if it reports a very well known urban legend. Next time, please sign any bollocks you wish to leave on my talk page. --WebHamster 20:52, 28 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

You're a silver-tongued devil WebHamster, but if you need any lessons in diplomacy I'll be only too happy to help. :lol: --Malleus Fatuorum 21:16, 28 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Well I was going to ask... ;) --WebHamster 21:18, 28 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Fair enough. Who is it that you want me tell to fuck off then? :-) --Malleus Fatuorum 21:27, 28 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Probably me, hammer-man :-) (talk→ BWilkins ←track) 22:14, 28 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

(Put a huge smile on my face while I tell you this) We both want, for good reasons, a mention of that urban legend to appear on the page. However your recent behaviour in the dispute and your editing record on the page edge on disruption. I understand you may not think so, but try to err on the caution side. Staying cool is difficult but ultimately rewarding: you usually catch more flies with honey than with vinegar. Pushing your opinion regardless of discussions and making blunt comments on talk pages is only going to backlash and to make other editors angry (including yourself). I'm not telling this to you to "patronize", take it more of an advice to get your points being heard in this and other discussions. Thanks! --Cycl^opia - ^talk 21:04, 28 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for the advice but I can assure you that I don't need it. I am neither angry nor intent on kow-towing to the current crop of wikilawyers. I am however a tad frustrated at the bullshit being spouted by the people with their fingers in their ears. 'Blunt' is the only way I know and I'm far too old to change now. --WebHamster 21:08, 28 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Notice the difference: in order to kowtow it is necessary to raise one's trousers back into the customary above-the-crotch position and touch one's head to the floor. Although the two gestures are superficially similar they carry opposite social connotations. Other options between these two extremes are also available. Thumbing one's nose would be a step up, but unfortunately that isn't an article yet. Perhaps it would make a good entry for Template:Did you know? Durova³²⁰ 22:25, 28 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

This is the only warning you will receive for your disruptive comments.
The next time you make a personal attack as you did at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents, you will be blocked for disruption. Comment on content, not on other contributors or people. →ROUX ₪ 23:49, 28 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
