I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your messages on discussion pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question on this page and then place {{helpme}} before the question. Again, welcome!

That Hello Schmeater welcome to Wikipedia thingy mabobber is just something to keep memories I don't like it.

Some quick points

I've reverted a number of edits because:

We don't add plot when the issues haven't been published - solicitations don't count as sources
We use the cover dates, which run two months ahead of the date the issue is released

Hope that helps explain my edits.

I also suspect that the "People who I know that are annoying" section on your user page violates WP:USER, specifically WP:UP#NOT #5 and 10. (Emperor (talk) 23:11, 17 May 2009 (UTC))[reply]

Your recent edits

Hi there. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. If you can't type the tilde character, you should click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you! --SineBot (talk) 23:10, 26 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Can a human tell me next time Sine.--Schmeater (talk) 23:39, 26 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

re: the Blackest Night: Batman AfD

Read up on how AfDs work.

Just because you believe you've gotten the last word in does not mean you "win".

Generally they stay open for about a week at which point an admin, generally an uninvolved one, looks at what the editors who've commented have said. Evaluates it. And determines one of three results:

Keep either by virtue strong arguments based on policy/guidelines or consensus;
Delete/rename either by virtue strong arguments based on policy/guidelines or consensus; or
No consensus either way.

Since the AfD went up on the 2nd, it likely won't close before the 9th or 10th.

Now, some of how you've gone about things deserve comment on the AfD page.

Re: Red Robin

Done. The main problem I'm noticing in your edits isn't the content for the most part, it's basically just formatting. In most cases you don't need to add extraneous details like what story a particular title is tying into, usually you just add a link to the story itself and let the reader figure it out. As a pointer you might want to look over some WikiProject Comics policies in your spare time and just look at the formatting of some good articles to see how it's done.

Any other advice, let me know. --CmdrClow (talk) 04:27, 12 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Idiot Friend

My stupid friend did this on my computer. Made an acount on my computer. I try to apologize for his behaviour and I get blocked.

This blocked user's request to have autoblock on their IP address lifted has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request.

Decline reason: Looks like you were too closely involved. Toddst1 (talk) 16:18, 19 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Will this unblock me will it. I hope it does and if it does I want an administrator to delete Hate J Greb.

So this had nothing to do with this dispute?--chaser (talk) 04:59, 19 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

It wasn't even me. I was eating food when he was doing this. I don't know why he does this. He's too portective. I mean a guy swore at me he beat that guy up. I really think that J Greb won the fight for Blackest Night: Batman fair and square. Now if this explains enough I would like Hate J Greb deleted and for me to be unblocked. --Schmeater (talk) 01:25, 20 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Why don't you file an RFCU if you're so sure? Toddst1 (talk) 02:16, 20 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Blackest Night: Crossovers

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Blackest Night: Crossovers, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process because of the following concern:

lacks references, no indication of how this is notable

All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because, even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

Blackest Night: Batman

The problem is they have a point - this largely spins off from Batman RIP and the tie-in with BftC is pretty minimal.

Please take this to the talk page at Talk:Batman: Battle for the Cowl#Blackest Night tie-in as you are edit warring with the other editor and are bordering on WP:3RR. If you both continue this warnings can be issued and/or the article locked until this is resolved. (Emperor (talk) 13:09, 19 July 2009 (UTC))[reply]

Edit-warring

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing. Please do not repeatedly revert edits, but use the talk page to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. If necessary, pursue dispute resolution. Enigma^msg 05:30, 21 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Could you please re-write that?

In the article discussion, I asked - rather specifically asked:

"Without commenting on the merits of the others' positions, could folk verify that I am understanding their positions accurately?"

It is important to limit the content of your response to further clarifying your position, not your position in relation to others, so as to avoid further tangential discussion. I would like to suggest that you edit yourself to remove any reference to any position other than your own. Believe that I will enforce the same amongst the other two users, so the quicker you act on this, the better. I can almost guarantee that if you do not, choose to do so, you are only hurting your own position. - Arcayne (^{cast a spell}) 17:27, 21 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Do you wish to remove the first attempts? The past post was what we were looking for. - Arcayne (^{cast a spell}) 19:49, 21 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Yes I would like it to be removed. --Schmeater (talk) 19:52, 21 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Done, Now, we wait for the other folk to weigh in, and we can proceed. :). - Arcayne (^{cast a spell}) 20:03, 21 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Arbitrary break

I think that, while your intentions for improving the article are good and commendable, you are still kinda new at editing articles in Wikipedia. We aren't allowed to make some of the connections you think we should be making. I don't want to discourage you, and I suspect that pointing you to a bunch of links might do that. I am going to put a template here on your talk page that will help you decide for yourself what you want to learn about; it will help you to understand the policies and guidelines that are getting tossed around in discussions. Feel free to delete it if you don't want it. My door is always open if you have a question or need help in understanding something. If I don't know the answer,I will help you find the answer.
Just keep a cool head and focus on the edits, avoiding entirely comments about an editor, especially negative comments. Good luck to you. :) - Arcayne (^{cast a spell}) 16:19, 22 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Confirmation

You see I wan't to confirm one thing did you wan't Blackest Night: Batman in Battle for the Cowl because of it's articles deletion, and what relation does it have to Battle for the Cowl.--Stinkysoxmon (talk) 15:41, 15 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Well if you look at the Afd of Blackest Night: Batman Emperor suggested added a say into R.I.P or Battle for the Cowl.--Schmeater (talk) 21:09, 15 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

WP:COMICS

Summarization should never be on a per-issue basis and should only outline the plot rather than describe minor details. Additionally, plot descriptions must include cited reference to critical analysis published in secondary sources. Editors should approach the discussion of fictional concepts within a "real world context"; this means editors should describe fictional elements in terms of how they relate to the real world, as fictional characters or topics. --Cameron Scott (talk) 20:52, 21 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I am not sure what is difficult to understand, we do not write issue by issue plot summaries and we write about comics as fictional items not as if they are real. Now you could edit war over this but it is likely to end with you blocked. in addition, you are now removing relevent referenced material and that can be considered vandalism. So how would you like to do this? --Cameron Scott (talk) 21:07, 21 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

also is it okay if I make a page called Blackest Night Tie-in's for a series of plot summaries? It's been discussed and rejected on the Blackest Night page so would likely just be merged back into that article. --Cameron Scott (talk) 06:55, 22 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Batgirl

I think you should add the info on Stephanie Brown to the Batgirl article. I also think you should provide a reliable source for the information pertaining to its relationship to other series, and the info in the second paragraph. If it's out already, you could find an image of its cover to add to the Infobox. I also copyedited it to add some formatting and wikilinks. Aside from that, what help do you need with it? Nightscream (talk) 22:11, 1 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

How would you like to handle this

If I reported a certain account as being a sock of yours and they checked the IPs, I'm guessing they would come back as the same? Now we could get into a "I have no idea what you are talking about" and I could get a IP check down or you could log into that other account and put up a 'retired' notice and we will leave it at that? So how would you like to handle this? --Cameron Scott (talk) 12:45, 3 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Now to tell you I'm not the first in my family so if you do find another it could be my sister or brother, but to get on your good side I have had a wikipedia account before but it got banned and I deleted everything on it's talk page, I'm not sure if it was an aut-ban or something else but thats your answer, and I made that account about a year ago. --Schmeater (talk) 22:46, 6 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hard way it is then. ----
