Congratulations of reaching FA status for the Shawshank Redemption. Andy Dufresne(Your article) has finally arrived in Mexico(Featured Article).
I currently have Deep Space Homer at FAC. This will be my first FAC and I am wondering if you could help me out in leaving comments and looking it over. I totally understand if you're busy, but do you have any interest in looking over it? I'd be happy to return the favor if you have any outstanding nominations yourself. If you have any GAN's you need to get cleared, ill be more than happy to review them. Thank you so much for your contributions. AmericanAir88 (talk) 19:22, 15 January 2018 (UTC)

[edit]Hello:
The copy edit that you requested from the Guild of Copy Editors of the article The Thing (1982 film) has been completed.
I wanted to draw your attention to the Aftermath section – There is no mention of the outcome of Stark’s lawsuits.
Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns.
Good luck with the article going forward.

Twofingered Typist (talk) 16:49, 18 February 2018 (UTC) Twofingered Typist - Thanks for your swift response to my GOCE request. The Stark lawsuit, I literally cannot find anything on it. I had to take out a membership with newspapers.com just to get the three sources I got about the start of the lawsuit, the response, and the additional lawsuit. I'm conscious that nothing probably came of it, or very little given there is no news, but just cannot find any information about it.

The Thing: Possible Information
[edit]Looking over the article again, there probably should be at least a brief mention of the canceled sequel to the original video game since that information is particularly noteworthy. There was an indie/fan-made sequel to the video game that was released a while ago. Don't know if it's worth mentioning or not considering it is a fan-made game (probably not). I've played the game myself and it's pretty good. Anyways, I just thought I'd mention that. Now I guess I need to get back to making my movie... Later.--Paleface Jack 16:19, 21 February 2018 (UTC)
- I don't think a concept of a game is worth mentioning on the film page, and there isn't sufficient notability for a fan game. Darkwarriorblake / SEXY ACTION TALK PAGE! 22:49, 21 February 2018 (UTC)

The Thing (1982 film)
[edit]Hi DWB:
I have finished my second copy edit of The Thing (1982 film). I went through the whole hing because there have been dozens and dozens of edits since my first effort.
You might want to consider removing most of the reviewers' names in the first and second paragraphs of the Critical Response section if they are not notable in the film reviewer community. Obviously Roger Ebert Richard Schikel and David Denby are exceptions.
Let me know if you have any questions or concerns and good luck with the FA process.

[edit]Do you have any books/magazines that discuss the early mature readers DC-Vertigo comic books? I just discovered how terrible Wikipedia's coverage on the subject is and am going to try and give them their own articles (or clean up existing ones). I've found some online sources but am coming up dry on interviews and the books I have don't really go that in-depth. (Also—thanks for the 1001 Games book! I was able to use it for Sonic Adventure.)

Possible Collaboration Projects
[edit]Hello DarkWarriorBlade, I forgot to congratulate you on your getting the article on The Thing up to GA status, something I've been pushing for a long time. I'm sorry about my lack of help with that, life stuff sort of made it impossible. However, based on your work on that article I had an idea for several possible articles that we can collaborate on. DarkKnight and I have been working hard on expanding the article on the character Leatherface via a userspace that I created and we're always looking for more help with that article and your the first person I thought about that could help us see it through to completion (Our goal is to get it to FA status). Another future project that we can do later down the road is this, I've started a draft for a possible article on the extraterrestrial character The Thing and since you've done some work on the previously mentioned article we can probably get a lot done via copy editing from your expanded article on Carpenter's The Thing before we have to start digging for more information. These are just a few snippets of some possible collaborations we can do. I still have a lot of non-Wikipiedia stuff I'm doing on the side so I might not get a lot done until June or so. Feel free to let me know what you think about these possible collabs.--Paleface Jack 15:46, 8 April 2018 (UTC)
- I'll think about it, character articles aren't really my strength and I have a lot of work to do for this FA. But if I can help I will. Darkwarriorblake / SEXY ACTION TALK PAGE! 20:41, 9 April 2018 (UTC)
No worries. Character articles weren't mine either. I had do do some research as to their structure and writing before I was able to work on them. The article on The Thing is looking great so far, good luck.--Paleface Jack 23:00, 10 April 2018 (UTC)
Die Hard
[edit]TheOldJacobite is at it again in Die Hard, he has removed additional cast members and the character descriptions on it. He's gone too far with it. BattleshipMan (talk) 18:27, 14 April 2018 (UTC)
- Ok. Well don't get into an edit war over it, if it happens again we can discuss it on the talk page. I agree with yourself, the elimination of the vast majority of the cast and descriptions was unnecessary. Darkwarriorblake / SEXY ACTION TALK PAGE! 21:05, 14 April 2018 (UTC)
- If it happens again and the talk page is set up on it, I'll let you know. BattleshipMan (talk) 22:44, 14 April 2018 (UTC)
- TheOldJacobite has reverted my edit and I reverted back. It's time to set up the talk page on Die Hard about it. BattleshipMan (talk) 01:39, 15 April 2018 (UTC)
- Here's the talk section about the cast section of Die Hard. BattleshipMan (talk) 01:55, 15 April 2018 (UTC)
- I may need some assistance on the talk page on Die Hard again at the cast section with the user Hijiri 88. BattleshipMan (talk) 23:22, 22 April 2018 (UTC)
- The above message reeks of canvassing. I'm really not interested in an extended discussion: I've already said my piece and I'd appreciated not being dogged on until I agree that Die Hard is a "revolutionary" film and that that has any bearing on the level of detail necessary in the plot section. Hijiri 88 (聖やや) 23:36, 22 April 2018 (UTC)
- For the record, I am well aware of the ongoing discussion at Die Hard without battleship notifying me, just feel no need to become further involved after statements made by myself and Erik. Darkwarriorblake / SEXY ACTION TALK PAGE! 16:41, 23 April 2018 (UTC)

Re:PC Data sales figures
[edit]Hey. I noticed that you removed the figures I added to Vampire: The Masquerade – Redemption, so I'm dropping by to bullet-point the reasons why the sales need to remain in the article.
- Quarter to Three was a game journalism site founded by Tom Chick, a famous and respected member of that field from the period. He's so famous, in fact, that a single review of his received an entire article of coverage in Rock, Paper, Shotgun. Chick was a regular at publications like Computer Games Magazine (where he was a columnist), CNET Gamecenter, Computer Gaming World and many, many more. He's also the co-author of the piece you keep removing, The Year's Ten Best-Selling Games. Mark Asher, the other co-author, was a long-running columnist for CNET Gamecenter and a regular contributor to many respected game publications. Even disregarding Quarter to Three as a guaranteed-reliable source (I have no idea one way or the other), this particular article's reliability is unquestionable.
- PC Data did not "speculate" about sales figures. It was a point-of-sale tracking firm that worked directly with almost every software retailer in the United States to confirm, down to the individual unit, what was selling. Sales figures from PC Data were cited in every single major newspaper (The Washington Post, The Los Angeles Times, The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times) in America throughout the '90s and early 2000s. Its only use of anything resembling "speculation" was its extrapolation of data, based on advanced calculations and partnerships with outside companies, to account for 100% of the market up from its guaranteed 80-90%. This is exactly what NPD, Nielsen and every other market-tracking service in existence do to this day, and no one considers it unusual. These numbers subsequently determined all chart placements in PC Data's weekly, monthly and annual rankings, which you have already cited in the article. Finally, because PC Data did not cover regions outside of North America, my addition to the article specified this in exact words: "Redemption had sold 111,193 units and earned $4.88 million in North America" (emphasis added). This comes directly from the text of the Quarter to Three source in the inline citation.
In conclusion, there is no reason for these figures not to be included in the article. Its authors are reliable journalistic sources and PC Data was quite simply the most reliable source in existence for sales figures in its region. If you have no further objections, I'll re-add the sales figures to the article. JimmyBlackwing (talk) 04:41, 22 July 2018 (UTC)
- Ok, but if you have to explain all that to me to justify the source being notable and then having to give me information not covered in the source to compensate for stuff the source says, then it isn't a great source. Regardless, I've added it back in. Darkwarriorblake / SEXY ACTION TALK PAGE! 21:09, 22 July 2018 (UTC)

[edit]Marvel's Spider-Man (2018 video game) AKA "Spider-Man PS4"
[edit]I'm that anon who kept editing the Spider-Man video game's description to add the alternative name "Spider-Man PS4". Link to the edit.
I understand that's not it's official name. But as I said before, it's a shorthand name that not only fans but even the developers and publisher companies of the game officially recognize. #SpiderManPS4
it is also refereed to as such in numerous online news articles.
Moreover, Nintnedo does not recognize the shorthand name "Super Smash Bros. 4", "Smash 4" or "SSB4" for their game Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U. And yet the shorthand name is recognized in this article as "Super Smash Bros. 4".
I do not see how a shorthand game's name that can be recognized by a larger company cannot be recognized by Wikipedia if there's a shorthand name not recognized by a larger company being recognized by Wikipedia. Given this I say we either recognize both names or neither.
24.161.105.220 (talk) 16:28, 3 January 2019 (UTC)
- A hashtag adding ps4 is to differentiate it from the multiple other media it is appearing in at any one time. It's still not the name of the game, nor is there a need to identify it in such a way here. If you disagree with me however, you can open a discussion that game's talk page and get input from other users. Darkwarriorblake / SEXY ACTION TALK PAGE! 19:12, 3 January 2019 (UTC)
This may be of interest of you. I feel if the article can be done. Than maybe the plot of the dlc’s can be added too and redirected there. But of course it’s obvious that it’s help of your work on the parent video game article. Especially the sources which feels like an Easter egg hunt to find the ones I need and not need on how you used them. Jhenderson 777 19:25, 26 January 2019 (UTC)
- Also sorry for the rollback. I meant to click the thanks button. Jhenderson 777 19:29, 26 January 2019 (UTC)
- It's not something I have time to help you with but you could do with adding reception of the character/costume as I'm sure there was a lot of feedback on the costume design. There is some info about that in the game article now but the reception of it would be good content. Darkwarriorblake / SEXY ACTION TALK PAGE! 20:00, 26 January 2019 (UTC)

Out of curiosity
[edit]I noticed that it's been a couple of years since Joker (character) was last nominated for FA status and much of the FA discussions themselves no longer appear to be pertinent. Is there still more work to be done? How close do you think it is to FA quality? DarkKnight2149 23:48, 1 February 2019 (UTC)
- It is already FA quality, it is perfectly complete, but CurlyTurkey blocks it every time because it doesn't fit what he thinks a comic article should be. He blatantly ignores that there are separate articles for alternative versions of the character outside of comics and demands that the comic character is not the original character, so the article should cover all versions ever made. On the last nomination he flat out said "no changes have been made since last time", at which point I linked him to the hundreds of changes that had been made, so he just ignored that and went "oh, oh well err... still blocking this". It doesn't work in the way he wants it to so is just deliberately obstructive, and Wikipedia isn't smart enough to deal with people like that. And since FA nominations are hard to get participants for in the first place, every discussion dies a death quickly. Darkwarriorblake / SEXY ACTION TALK PAGE! 07:50, 2 February 2019 (UTC)
- If there's no more work to be done, I would recommend another nomination (since it's 2019). Since the article already looked up to standard, I was going to see what minor changes needed to be done to improve it. But as a heads up, I can't and won't involve myself in the first thing you said, though.
- I have thought about doing more work on Joker in other media, but I'm not sure yet. I already rewritten one of the sections and thought that it might have potential. That being said, I'm already pretty busy and am doing work on a few other drafts, so I'll have to wait and see on that. I'll keep an eye out for any pertinent information for the 2019 Joker film, but that probably won't be until it has been released. DarkKnight2149 08:31, 2 February 2019 (UTC)
- Ha, so you've had experience with Turkey too. So you aren't surprised. I will see. It could be something as simple as moving Joker (character) to Joker (DC Comics character) to satisfy his moaning. I do want to improve Joker in other media, I did a lot of work on early games a few years ago, but it's just such a huge project i find it hard to follow through on it. Darkwarriorblake / SEXY ACTION TALK PAGE! 13:59, 2 February 2019 (UTC)
- Just bare in mind that I have nothing to do with that. My primary interest is with the content itself. DarkKnight2149 20:20, 2 February 2019 (UTC)
- Hey Darkknight2149, just letting you know I've not forgotten this. With my time more limited these days I tend to have to be particularly interested in a topic to put time into it. I did The Thing (1982 film) for instance but got mega fed up at teh end and it took me months to sort out the cinematic analysis section after someone added a bunch of fluff to it. I will get on nominating it after I've got through the South Park and Spider-Man video game FACs. Darkwarriorblake / SEXY ACTION TALK PAGE! 19:50, 16 May 2019 (UTC)

Joker in Gotham
[edit]To clarify on the Joker situation, there is no Joker in Gotham. Just his direct precursors. The showrunner says that Jeremiah might become the Joker in the unseen events after the series finale, but they ended up leaving it ambiguous on purpose. See:
There are also a tonne of sources at Joker in other media. If we absolutely must address the Joker lineage stuff at Joker (character), it should probably say something along the lines of "The Joker's philosophical ancestry was fleshed out in the prequel television series Gotham" (or something to that effect). DarkKnight2149 01:40, 27 April 2019 (UTC)
- Whatever works, I stopped watching Gotham after S2 so I don't really know what is going on with this character or if it is a rights issue, I don't particularly want it there at all because it's not the Joker, but can only revert so many times. If you know about that version then please feel free to edit as needed.Darkwarriorblake / SEXY ACTION TALK PAGE! 07:12, 27 April 2019 (UTC)

About Dredd
[edit]I knew it's sci-fi action and I reverted the removal of sci-fi here, but the user called UKER seemed like a top admin and that's why I felt the urge of complying with his edits so as to avoid any threats of vandalism. By the way, thanks for restoring SF. I know it's a sci-fi action film but still added the BOM source so that he at least doesn't add the word "fiction" to the action genre.
BTW, can you help me out with The Terminator as well? It's also a sci-fi action film and no source denies that, except a bunch of editors allowing no genre edits on the page? You need to check it out if you want to. Thanks once again. (77Survivor (talk) 13:47, 25 May 2019 (UTC))

Your contributed article, Ghostbusters: The Video Game (Nintendo DS game)
[edit]If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
Hello, I noticed that you recently created a new page, Ghostbusters: The Video Game (Nintendo DS game). First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as you. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page – Ghostbusters: The Video Game. Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will continue helping to improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at Ghostbusters: The Video Game. If you have new information to add, you might want to discuss it at the article's talk page.
If you think the article you created should remain separate, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "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 deleted 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. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Wikipedia looks forward to your future contributions. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 18:50, 9 September 2019 (UTC)

- Hi DWB; I've come across an awkwardly phrased sentence in 'Design --> 'Creature effects': "The Scoleri Brother ghosts, Tony and Nunzio, were inspired by a pair of brothers who robbed Ramis' father's story". Was the father's story stolen or are some words missing here (who was robbed in Ramis' father's story)? I don't think this story has yet been mentioned in the article so the context should be made clear if it's significant. I'd check the ref but it looks like a printed source I don't have access to. Cheers, Baffle☿gab 03:07, 5 October 2019 (UTC)
- Sorry Baffle gab1978, it's "store" not "story".

Joker FAC
[edit]Saw your comment at the Rogue move discussion... if you're referring to who I'm thinking of, they retired a while ago. (I do think you should be careful about calling them an "idiot" though, as they've done a lot of good work on the site, and it's borderline NPA.) Regardless, if you want to bring it to FAC again, I'd be glad to do a copyedit. JOEBRO64 00:42, 9 October 2019 (UTC)
- Eh, they can warn me for it, the guy wasted years of my work by blocking those nominations before any meaningful discussion took place. I will get to it, I'm currently focused on getting Ghostbusters 1 and 2 to FA first before the new film comes out, then I will come back to Joker. It's already fairly perfect as is IMO, just needs putting to nomination. Darkwarriorblake / SEXY ACTION TALK PAGE! 16:14, 9 October 2019 (UTC)
Orphaned non-free image File:South-Park-Phone-Destroyer.jpg

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).

[edit]Do not make false accusations of vandalism. See WP:NOTVAND and WP:NPA. 46.208.152.121 (talk) 20:33, 14 October 2019 (UTC)
- I did not make a personal attack, and removing content and refusing to discuss it when it is disputed is vandalism, plus you were literally WP:EDITWARRING, aiming to force through your changes and telling me that I should just know why you are doing the edits you are. If you wish to edit Wikipedia, I suggest creating an actual account first, and then being willing to discuss things next, per WP:BRD. If you'd explained your edits there wouldn't have been an issue, but when it is disputed, just attempting to brute force your edit into place is not acceptable. Neither word is controversial or untrue.Darkwarriorblake / SEXY ACTION TALK PAGE! 07:55, 15 October 2019 (UTC)
- You did make a personal attack, and you clearly have not read WP:NOTVAND, or at least you have not understood it. You need to get less ignorant about policies. 46.208.236.215 (talk) 10:18, 17 October 2019 (UTC)
- So I should have tagged you for edit warring instead, you were still intransigent and when I asked you to explain why you were removing content you just reverted the edit without explaining, and when you finally did talk you just said I should understand. I've not made any personal attacks unless you consider reporting you to be blocked because you were edit warring a personal attack, which it is not. I've asked you to talk and your tone is confrontational and that your way should just be accepted despite having not explained why you are doing what you are doing. You are in no position to criticize me. Darkwarriorblake / SEXY ACTION TALK PAGE! 10:29, 17 October 2019 (UTC)
- Hi 46.208.152.121, I fully agree with Darkwarriorblake. I reverted your last edit. Reading the log, you are being uncivil which isn't sane for a debate. Even if you think that your edits are valids, you have to justify them and others shouldn't have to interpret them. Furthermore, it was on a featured article, that meet certain criterias. Seek consensus, and don't blatantly delete anything you find (and I quote you) "absurd, pointless, useless, awful or poor". Thank you, CocoricoPolynesien (talk) 10:14, 19 October 2019 (UTC)

Concerning the unregistered IP
[edit]Hi ! You and I recently have been confronted by an unredistered IP that doesn't want to abide by the rules. However it doesn't seem to constitute vandalism, but highly distruptive editing and edit warring. A admin redirected me to WP:ANEW however it only covers edit warring and not the behavior of the IP. Do you want to help me, and if so, any lead ? Good day, CocoricoPolynesien (talk) 14:37, 20 October 2019 (UTC)
- CocoricoPolynesien, it is WP:EDITWARRING. That's why the article was locked because the admin involved Darkwind locked the article. Now whether that was fair or not I don't know, the edit history showed I was restoring a featured article while asking for an explanation while the IP is openly hostile to anyone who disagrees with their edits. Any edit summary they leave can be boiled down to "I am right, you will not stand in my way", this is something I can see you have experienced by reverting the article to the Featured version only for the IP to continue their edit war with you instead. Personally my life isn't empty enough to spend my time monitoring the article for these two words the IP is removing, but their attitude, IMO, is not acceptable for Wikipedia and despite being given opportunities by myself, yourself, and a cooling off period by Darkwind, they don't really seem interested in collaboration or cooperation. So if you want to take it to WP:ANEW I will be happy to support you in that. Darkwarriorblake / SEXY ACTION TALK PAGE! 15:01, 20 October 2019 (UTC)
- Yeah I know... I don't have the time for that either, and it took enough of my free time today. I'm willing to take it to WP:ANEW. However he is also starting to be really dispectful... Thanks for the support. CocoricoPolynesien (talk) 15:09, 20 October 2019 (UTC)
@CocoricoPolynesien: and Darkwarriorblake. The belligerent IPs are socks of the community-banned WP:LTA/BKFIP. Favonian (talk) 17:42, 21 October 2019 (UTC)
Ghostbusters
[edit]Please open a thread on the article talk page to discuss sourcing. Responding to my closing statement isn't an ideal place to dispute comments that reviewers have left. I'd be happy to offer further input on the matter on article talk if you like. --Laser brain (talk) 14:05, 21 October 2019 (UTC)
Terminator: Dark Fate
[edit]Paramount doesn't have a full cast-and-credits list available yet, but here is the confirmed billing and top credits, plus what I've excerpted from the production note cast/crew biographies. Having seen it, I do know Edward Furlong is credited, but it's near the end of the end-credits with the wording (which I don't remember exactly) something like "John Connor imaging."

- Thanks Tenebrae. I'm really surprised that Boneta is billed along the rest of the cast, if he was a huge star I'd understand. Darkwarriorblake / SEXY ACTION TALK PAGE! 17:18, 29 October 2019 (UTC)
