Films

You could create articles on missing films. List of Argentine films of 2008 for instance. I could provide an example for you, but you'd have to retrieve the correct urls for imdb/cinenacional to source/external link them.♦ Dr. Blofeld 16:31, 19 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

My internet is currently going quite slow and often dies on me. I will once it speeds up a bit. ⇒TAP 16:34, 19 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

OK. Everything alright? You seem, a little deflated?♦ Dr. Blofeld 17:31, 19 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Not really! There has been a few threats off-wiki coming towards me.. ⇒TAP 17:43, 19 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

You're forgetting to add Category:Municipalities of Morocco to the municipalities when you change the category and add template.♦ Dr. Blofeld 21:12, 21 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Oulad Fares El Halla

This is an automated message from MadmanBot. I have performed a search with the contents of Oulad Fares El Halla, and it appears to be very similar to another Wikipedia page: Oulad Fares. It is possible that you have accidentally duplicated contents, or made an error while creating the page— you might want to look at the pages and see if that is the case. If you are intentionally trying to rename an article, please see Help:Moving a page for instructions on how to do this without copying and pasting. If you are trying to move or copy content from one article to a different one, please see Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia and be sure you have acknowledged the duplication of material in an edit summary to preserve attribution history.

It is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. MadmanBot (talk) 20:13, 21 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Answer

The common practice seems to be to not capitalize ordinary nouns in infobox templates; whether it be village, city, bowler, wicketkeeper, etc, but there are numerous counter-examples. Since "village" is not a title per se, but a rough translation of the Iranian equivalent, it seems to be an ordinary noun and hence not capitalized. There seems no exception in Wikipedia:MOS_(capitalization). Carlossuarez46 (talk) 20:38, 21 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Actually I would have to disagree with that Carlos. I think it looks strange not to capitalize and looks odd in lower casing. I've started a few ten thousand place articles with capital letters see Mali, Algeria etc. As far as I know its only you and the editor changing the Indian infoboxes using lower casing.♦ Dr. Blofeld 21:14, 21 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Bot request

Hi there, I found User:Thine Antique Pen/welcomebot. This would not pass because of this. I would advise you not to open it as it would be denied quickly. Rcsprinter (talk) 15:13, 22 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Don't worry, I think this was found, advised against, and abandoned, pretty soon after it was created. I'm not sure why it was still in the open requests category, though, so thanks for fixing that. --Demiurge1000 (talk) 15:18, 22 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Yep, abandoned. ⇒TAP 15:29, 22 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Wedding dance

Hi TAP, I left a few more comments on the painting. Meeting the "brilliant prose" standards is very difficult, and usually requires help from several experienced writers. I suggested someone you could ask for advice on the review. I hope you're not discouraged if this nomination is unsuccessful, it usually takes a while to get the hang of FAC. The best advice I can give you is to get help from copyeditors and peer reviewers as much as you can. Regards, Mark Arsten (talk) 16:18, 25 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I've outlined all issues listed there now. Thanks! ⇒TAP 16:33, 25 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Ok, thanks. I'll try to revisit the FAC, I've got another couple articles I'm trying to get around to reviewing first though. FAC can be a really rewarding place, even though it is often frustrating. Good luck! Mark Arsten (talk) 16:50, 25 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
OK! I sharpened the lower right-hand detail image. From this to this. Thanks! ⇒TAP 16:53, 25 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Question

Hi, i noticed your activity at Wikipedia:Requests for permissions/Autopatrolled and was wondering how i find out how many pages/articles i have created. Can you tell me how to find this information? Thanks and have a good evening Jenova20 16:19, 28 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Alwats remember to add municipality and rural commune categories to the articles before you start the missing ones!!♦ Dr. Blofeld 16:29, 28 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

A barnstar for you

Hoteliers Barnstar of Excellence
You deserve one these for your impressive new meaty stub/start class articles on DC hotels. Not to mention you were actually reading my mind when i was thinking about how many notable hotels were missing! Keep it up!! ♦ Dr. Blofeld 19:47, 28 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you! Template:Hotels in Washington D.C. completion is my goal. After this, on to the United Kingdom. :) ⇒TAP 19:50, 28 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I have a |Good Hotel Guide to the UK. Still missing tons of country house type hotels. Hotels are something of my speciality on wikipedia. You might find more for Inna Garuda BTW.♦ Dr. Blofeld 20:31, 28 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

De nada! A tip though. Google the hotel and wikimapia and retrieve the coordinates to go in the infobox and add the locator map. Also avoid things like "within walking distance ". That comes across as an advert/tousrist guide. Just state exactly where the hotel is, e.g The hotel is located on xxx avenue, roughly 200 metres northwest of the White House. And to do that. just look on google maps once you retrieve the coordinates. ♦ Dr. Blofeld 12:56, 29 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks! See email. ⇒TAP 13:05, 29 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

You did copy my programming for google books and ref maker didn't you? Just wondering why you don't go to google books as a first resort. Google books then highbeam should be in order of priority. Most web based sources on hotels are crap although for some hotels you might find difficulty finding anything in the books and have to rely on them...♦ Dr. Blofeld 13:53, 29 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
