[edit] Jeremy Clarkson

I was baffled to see that you have deleted this article as "not sufficiently notable". Mr Clarkson is one of Britain's best-known television personalities and motoring journalists. I see from the logs that he has had articles deleted before from lack of sources, but notability should not be an issue. Would you support me if I created a new article, every quote being sourced from the website of the BBC or a major newspaper?--Ole.Holm 17:14, 1 January 2010 (UTC)

Yes, you are correct - I accidentally selected the wrong reason. But the deletion was made because the only content on the page was "Geez, why can't I access history of deleted page? That's so lame." Feel free to recreate the page, provided (as you said) the quotes are properly sourced. ~ UDScott 19:10, 1 January 2010 (UTC)

[edit] Wikiquote:Votes for deletion/Hiromu Arakawa

[edit] My great UDScott Show Pity upon my merciless sole?

Hello, great UDScott! I'm new here and before I just "jump into things" I wanted to ask a few questions. I'm asking you because I was told you are a great leader here at Wikiquote. Here's the Q's dog:
1.) Are there any special rules or traditions I should know of?
2.) Is there a type of hierarchy here I should know of?
3.) Any ideas of where I should start?
4.) Anyone I should stay away from or be aware of? (Trouble makers, notorious vandals etc.?)
Thanks for your help,

I CAN SEE FROM THE RECIENT CHANGES THAT YOU ARE ONLINE WHY ARE YOU IGNORNG MY QUERIES? ISHOOTHORSES 20:58, 20 January 2010 (UTC)

See the welcome message I left on your talk page on where to begin. ~ UDScott 21:08, 20 January 2010 (UTC)
Thank you but that does not answer a few of my questions (#'s 1,2, and 4). If you you answer these PROMPTLY it would be much appericated. Have a great afternoon lad! ISHOOTHORSES 21:22, 20 January 2010 (UTC)

[edit] UDScott can you show me the light?

HI UDScott, I am in the process of transcibing the audio from The 99p Challenge (http://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/The_99p_Challenge) gameshow, I saw that you had put the stub label on it & thought best to contact you as a WikiQuote Guru. Have you ever heard the show or have any experience with quoting Gameshows. I need some guidance on how best to approach this. Looking at the page now each episode is a section & a whoever entered that stuff has put a page break for each 'round' and selected 1 or more quotes.

Just wondered if you or anyone you know, would be able to advise me on the most appropriate way to proceed. Thanks, Darkroomwithaview 23:06, 26 January 2010 (UTC)

I would suggest that you continue with the episode approach - but you should base the number of quotes on the limits set at WQ:LOQ - which would translate to 2 quotes per episode for a half-hour show and 5 per episode for an hour show. So that would mean that the first episode needs to be trimmed already. Hope that helps. ~ UDScott 01:16, 27 January 2010 (UTC)

[edit] QUESTION?

How would I go about adding sources for a quote I recently added to the Call of Duty Page? Thank you for your anticipated response. ISHOOTHORSES 20:44, 3 February 2010 (UTC)

In this case, I don't think you need to do any more. ~ UDScott 20:54, 3 February 2010 (UTC)

[edit] Thank you

Thank you UDScott, but "some" films of I created, doesn't have film templates as rottentomatoes.com, example Alice in Wonderland (1976) and The Opening of Misty Beethoven (1976), because these are porn movies. But, The Opening of Misty Beethoven has a IMDB quotes page. --Danilo Andres Ramirez Nuvola Chilian flag.svg Problems? 20:07, 5 February 2010 (UTC)

No problem - thanks for adding it where it fits. I was also thinking of other additions you've made (e.g. Airport '77). ~ UDScott 20:21, 5 February 2010 (UTC)

[edit] Other thing

Wait that my English you understand it, sometimes isnt' easy for me, I speak in Spanish language, but you dont' speak Spanish, is hard for you. Well, but that isn't important. Greetings! :) --Danilo Andres Ramirez Nuvola Chilian flag.svg Problems? 20:22, 5 February 2010 (UTC) P.D: If you see in my user page in Babel, I can to contribute in en-1 and native language is Spanish.

[edit] Gordon Wu

I'm contesting the Prod. He's a knight and an honorary citizen of New Orleans. He was declared International CEO of the Year by George Washington University in 1996. How much more notable must a businessman be before he can have a page? Maybe not a brilliant quote, but that's a different issue.--Ole.Holm 20:59, 5 February 2010 (UTC)

Not a problem - I didn't get any sense of notability from the intro that was there - and at that time I didn't have a chance to look into it. That's what is nice about the prod - it gives some time to correct or research a page before it is subject to deletion. I have no problem with you removing the tag. ~ UDScott 21:13, 5 February 2010 (UTC)
