30 Rock (season 4)

Thanks for the quick PR, I've fixed those copy vios (I really wish people wouldn't do that). Any ideas on where to search for a fuller episode count? Staxringold talkcontribs 21:43, 1 November 2009 (UTC)

Sulaiman Al-Fahim

Thanks for helping out. I couldn't find much in the way of citations, aside from one that I posted to Jessica Hoy's talk page. I was hoping she(?) was just inexperienced and might try the edits again with proper references or at least request help with improving the contributions. If you want to add it in, feel free, it doesn't look like she will be using it. --ShadowRanger (talk|stalk) 22:53, 12 November 2009 (UTC)

Candice Swanepoel

Hello. I saw your edit in Swanepoel's article and I just wanted to offer my explanation, as I hit a wrong key combination before finishing my edit summary. The idea that there are several new Angels is based on Victoria's Secret saying so on the company's Facebook page (the page you linked to demonstrates this). After being contacted though, VS admits it was an error and the Facebook page that started all this has been updated and now says that the models are simply "new faces" as opposed to to new Angels.  Mbinebri  talk ← 00:14, 14 November 2009 (UTC)

Here is the link with the models labeled only as new faces now.  Mbinebri  talk ← 00:17, 14 November 2009 (UTC)

Help

A user has made a host of moves that violate WP:DASH, and I can't revert them, since I am not an admin. Can you fix it, gradually? Dabomb87 (talk) 03:14, 18 November 2009 (UTC)

This is a response regarding a user above who is misguided on using en dashes. An en dash used correctly to show disjunction does not have spacing around it. For example: The en dash used in "Canada–United States relations" is correct. This is used to show the relationship between Canada and United States. My explanation is also supported at WP:DASHES that Dabomb87 had directed me to. Dabomb87 has been incorrectly introducing the spaced en dash in articles' names. Dabomb87 would incorrectly move articles with en dashes in their names such as "University of Wisconsin–Madison" to "University of Wisconsin – Madison" and "Canada–United States relations" to "Canada – United States relations." Thanks. —RJN (talk) 03:44, 18 November 2009 (UTC)
As I have explained to the user, the dash used was correct, but the spacing was not. However, given our discussion on his/her talk page, I think that only the bilateral relations pages should be moved back, not the university ones. Dabomb87 (talk) 05:26, 18 November 2009 (UTC)
I agree and have commented as such. Don't have time today but will get to it this weekend if it still needs doing by then. Best, Rambo's Revenge (talk) 20:02, 18 November 2009 (UTC)
Reverted obvious cases, commented further on University cases to provide my reasoning why I still think they need reverting. Rambo's Revenge (talk) 19:25, 20 November 2009 (UTC)
