Yamla
Actually...
My last edit, in which I included Jessica Alba in "People with eating disorders" category, is in fact supported by the article and a citation. I would suggest doing your research rather reverting someone as a knee-jerk reaction. Treybien 15:52 24 September 2006 (UTC)

...
You are not citing your sources either mr Yamla. By the way are 6 ft 1.83 m, NOT 1.82 as you list. Brad Pitt is back at 5-11
Wha?
What vandalism are you talking about? I dont believe I've ever added anything to wiki ever. I read it often - edit - never! cheers. (i'm not even sure if this is where I moan about the odd message! *grumble*)
Sitting Room page
What do you think? I added a picture to Sitting_room. There wasnt one before, so I thought I would add one. D'you think it gets the point across ok?
Jessica Alba Page
Sorry I did not realise what I was doing was wrong. I'm new to this malarkey. Thanks for telling me.
Nickelback etc.
Hi Yamla,
Just want some clarification -- the only reason those were added was that the Forbes lists are frequently cited. It seems only reasonable to add some Canadian references when the subject matter is distinctly Canadian. (Well, alright, Celine lives in Vegas these days, but...) And here I was thinking I was adding some value to the article, especially for Canadian readers who want may more information from another credible source. CB material is archived by libraries, FP datamart, Thomson, etc. after all.
Cheers,
CBO Editor
Monique Currie page
Can you upload the page and get some pictures of her and more info? thanks
tsk
Sorry, I was just trying to see what it would do, and I just picked a username at random.
external links
sorry didn't know adding related links are considered as spam. whether they are my site or someone elses site they are related to content of the page i edited i guess. i'll stop it as you say. but i'm sure spam is really very different than what i do :). at least what i do is something related with the content of entry. Onurz
Deathrocker
Deathrocker is known for doing this. If you check Heavy Metal related articles, he reverts any changes to what he calls 'his' articles Vandalism and Sockpuppetry. Deathrocker is also on probation by the Abbirition Commitee, stating that all his blocks for incidents of this nature should be logged there. I suggest doing so, and reading up on exactly what is supposed to happen from his parolem, as he was found guilty of accusing several adminstrators of admin abuse before when he has been blocked, and created several sockpuppets to evade those blocks.
Oh, and one other thing i call to point. I ask you keep an eye on this post, as Deathrocker also has the habit of removing posts on discussion pages by anomynous users and registered members alike that do not agree with him.
External Links
- 9/3/06 Sorry Yamla, didn't know I wasn't allowed to add links and stuff. Won't do it again. Well I just want to let you know that the link I tried to add to Aly & AJ's pages were official MySpace pages of theirs for fans so you can edit that page yourself instead. Sorry if I cause too much trouble =)
Really sorry that my adding links was against Wikipedia's policy. Thanks for doing your job right. - Joe21

From Temp77: Relaying A Message From 7g7em7ini
Dear Yamla: I am just relaying a message from 7g7em7ini due to the 24 hours block you imposed, thereby preventing a direct response from 7g7em7ini. The message is: "I see that you have deliberately targeted me again. This is the last straw. Rest assured that I will not be making any further contributions to Wikipedia and I shall be removing all of my contributions to it over the last month as is my right. Do not revert my removals under any circumstances as you did last time. I will remove my contributions exactly 24 hours after you blocked me. I would also add that whilst I was a user, I had right to put whatever I liked on my own talk page and all that has been removed is out of date entries"
seriously.

Re: Tool Edits
Hi Yamla. Recently you reversed an edit I made adding my Tool Concert Poster Archive to the Tool (Band) page. You suggested that is a commercial site. Just wanted to make sure you knew the site does not sell posters, nor advertising, etc - it's simply an image archive/reference site for Tool poster collectors. I believe it is useful to fans and collectors and should not in any way be considered commercial. Thanks! Battaglino
Help!
Can you help me upload pictures the right way so i dont get deleted anymore. Thanks.

Fair use rationale for Image:Melissamilano2.jpg
Done.
Just wanted to let you know why I didn't revert that edit: true, the designation probably is too generous but, if her name is next to a song (even if one of several names), "songwriter is technically accurate. Feel free to chime in. :) RadioKirk (u|t|c) 18:34, 20 October 2006 (UTC)
- Given how the music industry works, having her name next to a song no more makes her a songwriter than it makes me a songwriter. That said, I'd let it stand if it was cited. Stupid recording industry. --Yamla 18:51, 20 October 2006 (UTC)
- LOL! RadioKirk (u|t|c) 20:02, 20 October 2006 (UTC)
vandalism
I didn't say that you called it vandalism, it was an other user.
Fergie pic
Sorry, Yamla. I thought that the copyright issue of the image was already solved, so I removed the tag. Thank you for awaring me about. DagosNavy 16:55, 25 October 2006 (UTC)
Re: Angelina Jolie
well i will get the website i got the information. sorry i be more careful next time. thanks

Hi Yamla, on my talk page, I try to remove the Jamaica off my template but it doesn't work so could you please help me remove that link?DX the bomb
Evangeline Lilly
I share this computer with others, one of whom is a Lost fan, so I will adress them on the vandalism of the Evangeline Lilly edit. Thank you for notifying me of this, I'll make sure it doesn't happen again.
Copyright Image?
The image is copyed from CWTV.com (All of Us) & MTV.com (The Real World: Devener) now I may just have the wrong title for the licensing, and truly don't know where those images fit under the title of the licenses so I placed them under as "Logo". ;-(
- Dear Yamla, I've provided a reason on the image's talk page as to why I dispute that a replacable fair use for Image:Trisha 23.JPG can be found. Regards. -- Maddy20 11:47, 3 November 2006 (UTC)

Myspace.com links
What is the official rule of thumb for an official myspace.com link on a bio of a person? In the past I put a link to Torrie Wilson's official myspace.com page on Torrie Wilson and you reverted it citing "Removed myspace link as per WP:EL". I finally accepted that and have in fact removed several myspace.com links myself citing the same reference from other pages.
Yesterday I removed one from Jenna Jameson and I got a message from Wikipedia user, AnonEMouse, stating, "Wikipedia:External links, it writes "Except where noted, this list does not override the list of what should be linked. For example, if the subject of an article has an official website, then it should be linked even if it contains factually inaccurate material." Therefore, the official Myspace site of the person the article is about should be linked."
Who is right? Thanks for your help! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 207.16.198.77 (talk)
This is a good question, what is Wikipedia's official stance towards myspace links? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Laetnej (talk • contribs)
My reading of the policy has always been that MySpace links are inappropriate unless the article specifically mentions the MySpace page itself. Even if they are official links. Rereading WP:EL, however, I'm not sure this is what is intended. There are really three possibilities. The first, I've already mentioned. The second would be that if the only official page about a person (or band) was the MySpace page, it may be acceptable then. The third would be that a MySpace link is appropriate whenever it is an official page. I'll try to see what the consensus is on the discussion page for WP:EL. Thanks for bringing this to my attention and I'm sorry if I caused either of you any troubles. --Yamla 19:47, 3 November 2006 (UTC)

Trisha Krishnan
I've acquired permission to use this image [1] of Trisha Krishnan from Idlebrain.com during a press meet with her and Idlebrain taken by Idlebrain's photographer, G. Narasaiah. Will this image do? Regards. -- Maddy20 17:29, 3 November 2006 (UTC)
- Under what license? If you have acquired this under a public-___domain license or under the GFDL or Creative Commons license, yes. That would be ideal. However, if it is under virtually any other license, we still can't use it. Please let me know about the licensing terms. --Yamla 18:44, 3 November 2006 (UTC)
- The Creative Commons Attribution 2.5 license. Regards. -- Maddy20 14:33, 4 November 2006 (UTC)
- Yes, that would most definitely be suitable. Thank you for the effort you must have put in on this one. --Yamla 15:59, 4 November 2006 (UTC)
- Haha, no big. Thanks for all your help! Regards -- Maddy20 15:17, 5 November 2006 (UTC)

Hello Yamla! Looks like your back from your wikibreak. I hope you enjoyed your time off and I look forward to seeing you be a great wikipedian. Bye.Tennislover 04:37, 4 November 2006 (UTC)

About the tracklisting that i put on her evolution page. I found it on the Walmart site where the album can be pre-ordered, and i did put the link(source)

Apologies for calling you numskull (you owe me one too)
Hi Yamla, we owe each other apolgies for last night. I admit I over reacted over this issue, but if you would've seen from my talk page, I had a banning dispute with Zoe earlier, and got really cheesed off. However, admittedly, you were trying to do your job, so you have my apologies for the abuses last night. But I think you owe me too for assuming I acted in bad faith, which I most sincerely didn't, neither did I see the messages you left in my talk page before you blocked me, so I was doubly annoyed.Rueben lys 22:14, 4 November 2006 (UTC)
- Rueben, I too am sorry for the conflict we experienced and for my part in the fault. If you say that you were not acting in bad faith then I accept that. I can see that you have made many productive edits to the Wikipedia so I apologise for claiming otherwise. I have unprotected your talk page on the assumption that you perhaps do not want to leave Wikipedia. If there is anything I can do to help you out, please give me a shout. --Yamla 16:47, 5 November 2006 (UTC)
- Hi Yamla - Rueben 1ys brought this issue to my attention on my talkpage. I responded that it was clearly wrong for him to make personal attacks, but I hope you'll make sure that Rueben's block and suspected sockpuppetry is according to policy and procedure. Rueben has been a positive and valuable editor, so I hope you can work this out with him. I'm not familiar with what happened so I won't suggest anything else.

how did you find the photo so quickly?--Gubbio 18:46, 5 November 2006 (UTC)
- I monitor all changes to Monica Bellucci (and about 6000 other pages) and so saw that the page had changed. I went to the image page to ensure that an accurate license was placed there, saw that you were a new user, and decided to thank you. :) --Yamla 18:56, 5 November 2006 (UTC)
Wow 6000, that's a lot to keep up with, are you an admin?--Gubbio 19:23, 5 November 2006 (UTC)

Abi Titmuss
Yamla, I'm Anna, one of Abi's assistants - totallytitmuss.com IS her official website. Why do you keep removing it? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.12.177.232 (talk)
- I'm sorry, my understanding was that this web site was a well-established fake. However, taking a look at the site, it seems reasonable to believe that it is the real official site. In that case, you have my apologies. I was acting in good faith to ensure that the page was only linking to official sites. While I have you on the line, is there any way we could get a freely-licensed (different from no-cost) image to use to depict Titmuss? I think this would improve the article. I can explain the requirements if you think you may be able to help out. --Yamla 15:45, 6 November 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for the barnstar. I still have more images to upload, as I've got a whole folder full of free use images. Thanks. -- Mikedk9109 (talk) 01:33, 7 November 2006 (UTC)
