Simpsons Trademark

I wasn't the one who added that information to the Simpson's article, but it is true (I recall seeing something about it in the news at the time). Check the database at [1]. It kind of makes sense, given all the speculation over the future of Sears Canada, that Sears might want to secure the rights to alternate names should ties with the American parent be severed (whereas the Bay presumably has less use for the trademark). Interestingly, in 2008 Sears Canada transferred all of its trademarks to 1373639 Alberta Ltd., including the Simpsons trademark. I don't know why, but suspect it is just an internal corporate organizational matter (presumably making it easier for the chain to be sold in the future, should the need arise, without the trademarks) - I'm guessing the numbered company is a wholly-owned shell company. Sears Canada ads (see, for example, this one), now have boilerplate at the bottom stating that the trademarks formerly owned by Sears Canada are now owned by 1373639 Alberta Ltd.--Skeezix1000 (talk) 14:18, 27 May 2009 (UTC)

WP:LEAD

Hi. Thanks for working on the Midway article. Please read WP:LEAD. You cannot mention anything in the lead unless you say it lower down in the article. It's not redundancy, it's that the lead is an overview of the most important information contained in the article below. This is a very important guideline in Wikipedia. Thanks! -- Ssilvers (talk) 00:12, 29 October 2009 (UTC)

The further shortening of the Lead looks even better, thanks! -- Ssilvers (talk) 00:16, 29 October 2009 (UTC)

GA reassessment of Burger King

I have conducted a reassessment of the above article following this request. You are being notified as you have made a number of contributions to the article. I have found some concerns which you can see at Talk:Burger King/GA1. I have placed the article on hold whilst these are fixed. Thanks. –– Jezhotwells (talk) 03:39, 14 March 2010 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for File:Atari logo.gif

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Atari logo.gif. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the file description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 19:16, 9 May 2010 (UTC)

Delete the Upstate New York article? Absolutely not!

I understand your frustration with the POV of some paragraphs, but I disagree with your proposal to delete the whole article. Upstate New York is a region and culture distinct from downstate New York, and is eminently worthy of its own article. The geography and history of the region is little known and poorly understood, and will not be adequately treated in an article about NY State as a whole.

I agree that there are problems with the sections of the article dealing with politics and culture, but deletion of the article as a whole is not justifiable. Don Argus jr (talk) 06:13, 6 June 2010 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of J B Lefebvre

The article J B Lefebvre has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Unreferenced article for which I can find no reliable sources to verify the information. In addition, WP:ORG states that for notability criteria to be met "A company, corporation, organization, school, team, religion, group, product, or service is notable if it has been the subject of significant coverage in secondary sources. Such sources must be reliable, and independent of the subject", which does not appear to be the case here.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{dated prod}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Jezebel'sPonyo^shhh 14:51, 9 September 2010 (UTC)

Esophageal cancer

When changing numerical claims, as you did on esophageal cancer, it would be helpful if you could provide a source for this (even if the original content was unsourced).

Verbal Abuse Article

I have placed a warning on User_talk:Ilmiomare regarding attacking editors in edit comments and manually undone some of Ilmiomare's edits. I know little about the topic so please feel free to fix, being careful about the 3RR.

The IP soap vandal

FYI, there's no "problem" between myself personally and the IP. The issue, if you're not already familiar with it, is that this individual (through a regularly changing IP) that has been vandalizing the project for quite some time now. They have a clear pattern of disruption, which features adding invalid "facts" and a passion for trying to post in articles that certain soaps have been "announced" as being cancelled in 2020. If you see such a pattern, please revert the IP's contributions on sight and report them as a vandal. --Ckatz^chat_spy 08:19, 21 June 2011 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/Farine

Hello Farine. I noticed you, or another editor created a Requests for Adminship page under your name, and I was wondering as to what the status of that request might be. If you are still intent on running for adminship with that request, please do let me know; otherwise, I'll go ahead and delete the RfA page for you in about a week or so from today. Eagles 24/7 (C) 00:20, 22 June 2011 (UTC)

You will need to transclude your RfA at WP:RFA by following the instructions at WP:RFA/N. However, with only 23 edits to Wikipedia space pages, I'm not sure your request will succeed. I suggest you not run at this time, but of course, the decision is entirely up to you. If you still want to go through with the RfA, just transclude it at the main RfA page, but if not, I will delete it for you. Eagles 24/7 (C) 15:44, 22 June 2011 (UTC)

Les Ailes Express

Hi. I'm a little confused with the paragraph about Les Ailes Express. Was it called I&F up until early 2010 when it was changed to GLAM, and then again in 2010 changed to Les Ailes Express? As the article currently stands, this is how it reads. Why would they go through rebranding twice in one year? I know it's Fairweather so anything retarded like this is possible, but I think it needs clarifying either way. Also a source would help, thanks. Imperatore (talk) 18:02, 25 June 2011 (UTC)

I agree the dates should be removed, unless sourcing like newspaper articles can establish firm dates (doubtful, don't think anyone cares).

FYI, this Fairweather Group, or 'The I.N.C. Group' or whatever, really is a mess. I noticed a while ago on their website they plagiarize Macy's department stores' in-house brand logo of similar name, 'INC International Concepts', by doing a simple MSPaint-like job so that the logo can look like it's 'I.N.C. Group', as evidenced on one of their random brand websites (upper right corner) http://www.stockhomme.com/. What's ironic is that media outlets have reported Fairweathers' intention to sue Target Corp. for copyright infringement over their entry into Canada should Target choose to use the name 'Target' in selling their clothing, since Fairweather has a similar named store banner called Target Apperel in Western Canada/Ontario; Someone needs to tell Target Corp. / Macy's that it's Fairweather themselves who are the copyright infringing culprits by cloning one of Macy's' brand logos! Coupled with the fact that I've heard they've had lots of problems with store shut downs in Toronto when they tried to launch all these random brands as standalone store banners, it doesn't surprise me to hear about an i&f/glam/express crazy rebranding scenario play out in like 1 year's time.

Target Canada

Unfortunately, I didn't create the article Target Canada, it was User:Stickguy who created the article. but I only made a lot of edits for Target Canada article. I think you should talk to User:Stickguy who created the article, not me. I only made a lot of edits. Steam5 (talk) 23:42, 4 August 2011 (UTC)

Hi there! Thanks for the detailed discussion of your views on the article. My interpretation of "confirmed" came from the fact that some, but not all, of the landlords have specific agreements in place with Target that their locations will definitely be converted to Target stores and not resold – see, for example, the discussion of the RioCan and Primaris properties here. In light of that fact I had chosen to take the word of those landlords who had made announcements to the effect that their locations would be converted as indicating similar assurances, although I concede that (a) some landlords might not be 100% forthcoming about the presence or absence of such assurances for their locations, and (b) Target could theoretically change its mind on some of those by paying an appropriate penalty.

In regards to WP:NOTDIRECTORY, I did not intend to have the list there once Target Canada opens its doors and has its own list of its operating stores, much as WP does not normally include lists of stores for most other operating chains. But I had felt that compiling the specific definitively-confirmed locations – which to my knowledge Target itself hasn't released publicly, and wasn't otherwise available – might serve to override those concerns. That said I concede there isn't any particular exemption for directories not available anywhere else, and in any event, collapsing the two sections would basically make it identical to a list that Target has publicly released.

For now I will (shortly) reduce the "Proposed Locations" section to a short discussion of the fact that 105 Zellers locations have been selected (plus one new build site), and that not all of the Zellerses will be necessarily converted to Targets, but that some landlords claim to have assurances that their locations will be converted, all with appropriate references. Hopefully this will provide sufficient information to the reader to figure out which locations may or could be converted. Cheers! — stickguy (:^›)— || talk || 03:21, 5 August 2011 (UTC)

Inquiry about Soap Sourcing

I have a question, would you consider that Soap Opera Digest over-rides a soap opera's closing credits on TV? Because there's a bit of debate about someone being on contract vs. recurring. I believe she's recurring, which is what SOD says, but the soap says contract. I would like a third/fourth opinion in this. The chat is on Daniel Case.
