WT:OPERA
No problem as things stand - I had no particular intention to use any of the other synopses (some of them written by me, BTW!), and I imagine that Kleinzach would want to get the permission of the author if/when any such occasion arises. As for OTRS, I know less than nothing about it - could you make any necessary links, perhaps in collaboration with User:Moonriddengirl. Best. --GuillaumeTell 13:50, 9 July 2009 (UTC)

Is a cleanup possible?
Hi, Shoemaker. I was wondering if it was possible to clean up the sound on , or even if it was worth it. It's the only known episode to survive of a radio show from the 30s, and it has fallen into the public domain. The accompanying article is an FA, and I'd like this file to be, too. Also, would it stand a chance of being promoted at WP:FSC, cleaned or "dirty"? Thanks, Matthewedwards : Chat 04:39, 10 July 2009 (UTC)
- OK, thanks. There's no hugh rush so if you have other commitments it can wait. Matthewedwards : Chat 04:49, 10 July 2009 (UTC)
I have another Q on something unrelated. When a composer has written/recorded/published a piece of music before 1923, and then it has been re-recorded/reinterpreted/covered after 1923, is that recording copyrightable or is it PD because it's all about the state of the original work?

Closure of the lawnmower picture
Hi,
Not sure how I'm supposed to do this, but I would like to respectfully oppose this closure. Sure I only put a neutral vote, but raised an important question that goes further than this picture. I would like community input on this question, and maybe then the vote will be easier for every one else. Regards Ksempac (talk) 09:38, 14 July 2009 (UTC)

WikiCup participates in the Misplaced Pages:The Great Misplaced Pages Dramaout
Hello all, iMatthew here. I just wanted to let you know about "The Great Misplaced Pages Dramaout" which starts this Saturday. The goal of the Dramaout is to spend five days working on improving articles and abstaining from any of Misplaced Pages's drama. I don't think that any of you will have a problem focusing on articles for five days, because of course, any work you get done during the Dramaout will count towards your score in the WikiCup. Details are on the page; hope to see you all signing up! :) iMatthew at 00:27, 17 July 2009 (UTC)

Mannatech Article
Hello Shoemaker's Holiday, just wanted to touch base with you. I have reverted your edit you made today to the Mannatech article; for some reason you had removed a few months of edits including a major clean-up and improvement I and others have been working on (adding the company logo, organizing all the public scrutiny into separate sub-sections, etc). FYI, I am not affiliated with Mannatech at all. Let's talk if you have any objections to my revert. Have a good day.prhartcom (talk) 12:03, 19 July 2009 (UTC)
- Thanks for your reponse (on my page); I definately know what you mean about this article; I have seen many attempts to add marketing content. I keep an eye on it frequently for that reason. I have, I believe, improved it quite a bit in the last few months so I do appreciate it if we talk before you remove any of those improvements. Have a good day.prhartcom (talk) 12:40, 19 July 2009 (UTC)

Re: ANI post
If you refuse to withdraw a harmful accusation when only oversighters can see the full truth of the matter, I believe that this is necessary. Misplaced Pages:Administrators'_noticeboard/Incidents#User:Stephen_Bain —Preceding unsigned comment added by Shoemaker's Holiday (talk • contribs)
- The page is merely deleted, not oversighted, any administrator can view the revisions. As for the amendment request, you will have to await the other arbitrators' views if mine do not suit. --bainer (talk) 14:00, 23 July 2009 (UTC)
- No, some of the revisions - including most of the outing of me - was oversighted, before the deletion of the page was considered. If you're basing your accusation on the events on the post-oversighting page, then you are not really looking into the situation. Shoemaker's Holiday (talk) 14:41, 23 July 2009 (UTC)
- I have blocked Arion 3x3 (talk · contribs) indefinitely as an emergency measure, after what I deemed to be his attempted outing of another editor at the current arbitration he is involved in. I was approached privately by both Filll and Durova, who noticed it, 'and decided it was worthy of oversight. In my opinion, whether or not his hunch is correct (which I cannot confirm) the fact that he was trying to out the real name of someone who had explicitly left the project due to the publicity of his real name is troubling. Sorry if this all sounds cryptic, but it's hard to say much, given the circumstances. I would like us to have a discussion now whether the indefinite block should be made permanent, or how to react. Dmcdevit·t 03:31, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
- Shoemaker's Holiday (talk) 14:50, 23 July 2009 (UTC)
- Three edits were oversighted, two made by User:Arion 3x3 and one by another uninvolved user whose edit contained the same contents as those two. Your edits, the ones we are talking about, were not oversighted but deleted, and can be viewed by any administrator. --bainer (talk) 15:14, 23 July 2009 (UTC)
- We are not just talking about mine, since you are making the accusation that I am mostly, or equally at fault for outing, when mine was accidental and non-identifying, and theirs was an edit warred harassment campaign. Shoemaker's Holiday (talk) 15:31, 23 July 2009 (UTC)
- Three edits were oversighted, two made by User:Arion 3x3 and one by another uninvolved user whose edit contained the same contents as those two.

If you're talking about the passage I removed as unsourced but subsequently replaced and added the correct supporting ref, the page linked to in the ref was evidently the wrong one and didn't support the statement, although it was from the same collection of documents. But yes, I do find it wise to follow up on any claims he makes about sources. Brunton (talk) 18:26, 31 July 2009 (UTC)

Hey, thanks for taking up your time to do the tedious task. Just wondering, wasn't this nomination closed too early.

- Thanks for your offer on my talk page. If you allow me to have a rain check on it, I know exactly which document i would like restored. However, I will need to get a hold of a bigger scan/photo straight out of the BNF before anything can be done. That's gonna require some work (and luck !) which I'm a bit too lazy to do for now.
