Pichu

Ahaha, actually, I never made much progress with Pichu, but looking at the content you've scrounged up, it's definitely doable; that's a good start for conception information. I'll look for reception sometime. - The New Age Retro Hippie used Ruler! Now, he can figure out the length of things easily. 02:03, 4 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Raziel

Yep, I'll do my best. I may be biased but I've searched for sources before and there is what I'd call sufficient coverage on him out there, just been far too lazy to fix the article until now. Thanks. --Monere (talk) 12:30, 4 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I spruced up the Raziel article and consider it more or less worth staying where it is now; may even be worth a class reassessment. Take another look at it, let me know what you think. Thanks. --Monere (talk) 19:04, 17 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Misunderstanding!

I am sorry for the edit I made but one most remember that if we give users to much freedom on this site they will begin to walk all over the rules. You will not be censored be me again, but your reply does beg the question of why some individuals are banned for profanity and some are not? What is an account holder to make of these double standards that wikipedia seems to allow, are there no rules at all on wiki?Fakecatholic (talk) 16:43, 7 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Ideas for articles

User:New Age Retro Hippie - there's a list of articles I'd like to see created. If you share any interest in any in particular, gimme a ring and we can work on them. - The New Age Retro Hippie used Ruler! Now, he can figure out the length of things easily. 05:45, 8 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

?

File:Save-japan-cat.jpg DO you reside in Japan? « ₣M₣ » 23:50, 8 October 2009 (UTC)

Cause after I saw your epic image, I thought about SSBB... which will be on the main page soon with no image. I wonder if it is possible to locate the office used for its development after doing some research to find out exactly where it is in Takadanobaba. « ₣M₣ » 19:08, 9 October 2009 (UTC)

Unseen characters

Personally, I feel that he qualifies as unseen by the fact that for the majority of the game, we never see him in full form, kind of like with GLaDOS. - The New Age Retro Hippie used Ruler! Now, he can figure out the length of things easily. 18:41, 10 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Mmmm, I dunno. I think if the characters are well-noted as being unseen characters - like for GLaDOS, so many critics/players consider GLaDOS as an unseen character - I think the exception can be made. GLaDOS is famous for being unseen, and while she does appear at the end, it's more the unseen parts that made her famous. - The New Age Retro Hippie used Ruler! Now, he can figure out the length of things easily. 18:58, 10 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Rayquaza

Since you did so much work on Mr. Mime, which I used as a sort of starting template, I wanted your opinion on User:Scapler/Rayquaza, and what you believe its chances of being kept (rather than deleted, to state the obvious) from the real-world information and references are. I would appreciate it! Cheers! Scapler (talk) 06:15, 14 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you so much for your suggestions. Cheers! Scapler (talk) 11:47, 14 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I'm going to put it in mainspace, we'll see how it goes. Cheers! Scapler (talk) 14:56, 14 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Final Fantasy character reception

I decided to take a page from your book and make up this, after making what I think are great starts for Zidane Tribal and Vivi Orunitia. - The New Age Retro Hippie used Ruler! Now, he can figure out the length of things easily. 17:51, 15 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Wow

		The Video Game Barnstar
		For your amazing work at the Pokémon articles I give you with this Barnstar. Nicely done.Tintor2 (talk) 17:16, 16 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Arbok/Weezing

Well, while this is probably true, I think the comment in particular reflects more so to Weezing even though the article is about Arbok. - The New Age Retro Hippie used Ruler! Now, he can figure out the length of things easily. 21:01, 18 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Rayquaza former citation style

For that reference style that you could not "make heads or tails of", please see WP:CITESHORT. Cheers! Scapler (talk) 21:25, 25 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

If I can cut in, while that style can be useful it applies only to printed materials, not sources that can be found online (of which there were a very great many). See U2 for an example. MelicansMatkin (talk, contributions) 21:38, 25 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I more adhere to it because "they avoid the inevitable clutter when long citations are inserted into the source text". I wasn't opposed to changing it, however, as it appears there is probably consensus for it, and it matches the other Pokémon article referencing styles. I feel like I should apologize to Kung Fu Man; upon reading my comment above, it seems sort of rude, which was not my intention at all, merely to inform. Side effect of limited inflection online, and I apologize again. Nothing meant. Have a good day and Cheers! Scapler (talk) 21:48, 25 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Yah, that style of referencing is for if you are refering to multiple different pages in one book. You could have the book information listed separate from the reflist, where you just have the page number.. _Blake ^{(Talk·Edits)} 22:41, 25 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

MfD: Wikipedia:WikiProject Video games/BioWare

A discussion on the above proposed deletion is underway, and as one of the Project Members, I thought you might like to contribute your views at Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/Wikipedia:WikiProject Video games/BioWare.

Haunter

I was just reading your article on Haunter; don't you think it'd be better to call it "Gastly, Haunter, and Gengar"? Gives it a wider coverage but doesn't make them seem irrelevant, since they're pretty much inclusive with each other most of the time. - The New Age Retro Hippie used Ruler! Now, he can figure out the length of things easily. 07:34, 6 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Rugal Bernstein

Rugal passed GA! Good work Kung Fu Man.Tintor2 (talk) 20:21, 13 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Just curious, do you plan to make Tifa a GA?Tintor2 (talk) 13:56, 18 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Nah, that doesn't bother me. The only thing that bothers me is that most of the creation section is unsourced.Tintor2 (talk) 14:10, 18 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Wow that was fast! About Liu Kang, I don't know. I don't know what can be used to source a parts from his design section and like always my prose is not very good. By the way, there is a free image of Robin Shou in Shou's article, maybe that could replace the one of "in other media".Tintor2 (talk) 15:04, 19 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Do you know if Shou commented something about his role as Kang than can be used in the other media section?Tintor2 (talk) 17:55, 22 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

No problem. I know you are busy with the FFVIII FAR (by the way good work). Take your time.Tintor2 (talk) 19:54, 25 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Re:Not so silent actually

True. Two editors, that's not so silent after all, since that's all it takes to have one Good Article still under reassessment wiped from the Project Index. Spira and Gaia are not GAs, yet they still exist, and in even worse condition then what World of Final Fantasy VIII was by Project standard's. — Bl ue 。 15:13, 16 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

World of Final Fantasy VIII GAR

Um, where does it say demoted? The GAR page still shows it as pending. I looked for a decision, but all I saw was your edit on the GA page. Even the article's talk page still shows pending. Thanks, MrKIA11 (talk) 16:26, 16 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

OK. No problem, it's just good to have double checks once in a while. Thanks, MrKIA11 (talk) 18:03, 16 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Wally Week deletion/redirect

Hi,

You mentioned a lack of news results for Wally Week being a contributing factor for the redirect of this page to Mikro-Gen, do a couple of articles in Crash and Your Sinclair not count to making the character even a little notable?

If not then I am quite hapy to let your decision stand. AirRaidPatrol 84 (talk) 18:29, 16 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I'll have a go in a sandbox and if there appears to be enough then I'll redirect back to the character article. Thanks for your input. AirRaidPatrol 84 (talk) 18:53, 16 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

One Winged Angel

Unfortunately, there's not really enough out there to support an article on the song- you'd think there would be, but the majority of sources that mention it just say the same thing, that it's an "iconic song" that is the "most popular" Final Fantasy song. You basically would end up with the second paragraph of the creation section of Music of the Final Fantasy VII series, plus a paragraph or two of reception that mostly says the same thing over and over, and that's about it. There's just not that many reliable sources that discuss video game music out there, even if you stretch the definition. --Pres N 18:49, 16 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

As with many other articles, it is a slow process to achieve GAN, but I will do so. You have my word. Subzerosmokerain (talk) 02:49, 24 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Copied at Talk:Nemesis (Resident Evil)

Hi. I noticed that you removed the {{Copied}} at Talk:Nemesis (Resident Evil). Since some content (the EGM list) came from the list article's history, attribution must be maintained. The relevant guideline is WP:Copying within Wikipedia. I wrote an examination of the Nemesis content's multiple-article history at WT:Articles for deletion/List of creatures in the Resident Evil series (2nd nomination), but I haven't implemented my dummy edit workaround. I'm pretty confident in that analysis, but let me know of any errors. Flatscan (talk) 04:40, 26 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Paine

I don't really understand the logic to remove voice acting information from her reception. I don't see why such information is less relevant than the reception that was left in the article; the information is directly related to her, and it could be said that the quality of her voice acting relied on the actor's attempt to speak in such a way that she expects the character to. I've never understood this; if a character wins an award, it is true that the source material would share credit, but the reception came from the general quality of the character, not the game. - The New Age Retro Hippie used Ruler! Now, he can figure out the length of things easily. 18:40, 5 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

That's an interesting point. Come on, let's get into character. [aka - point taken.] Perhaps though we could make a quick mention of her voice acting quality? I mean, it's not entirely out of the question, don't you think?

And on an unrelated note, I did a massive dump of Bowser reception; you're far more knowledgeable with what's good for sources, and much better at picking what's good for reception than I, so if you have any spare time could you spare a hand? - The New Age Retro Hippie used Ruler! Now, he can figure out the length of things easily. 08:07, 6 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

This claim

Hello! It is not true that "not a single thing's been done to improve the article." Please note these additions. As with last time, I do usually add material to the articles under discussion and do not only template them and comment in the discussion. Thank you. Sincerely, --A Nobody^{My talk} 18:25, 6 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Yes because adding reception that has nothing to do with the actual characters is a great improvement (and please note by that I mean characters on the list. Bowser and so forth have their own articles). You basically did a block quote that ends up having less to do with the article at hand than improving it. What do puzzles have to do with the character list? Nothing. It just looks big so your best bet is to hope nobody gives it a critical read and is satisfied with the end results at a glance, and the same issues being brought up by other editors still persist.--Kung Fu Man (talk) 19:20, 6 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I am happy that you acknowledge that it is a great improvement. Thanks! Sincerely, --A Nobody^{My talk} 19:22, 6 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

...what?'--Kung Fu Man (talk) 19:33, 6 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Question

I'm currently trimming Rikku's reception. Do you think she warrants more mention of her voice actor due to being a pretty well-known voice actor, the award she received for her portrayal, and for appearing multiple times to voice her? - The New Age Retro Hippie used Ruler! Now, he can figure out the length of things easily. 20:21, 7 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

LeChuck

I think the time has come for this article to meet its cleaner, given that the plot section now runs to nearly 7,000 words across nearly 40 paragraphs, and that the article has only one decent reference at present. Its become a right mess. I'll still have to work on the finishing touches to Elaine's article, as well as get some cleanup work on Tales of Monkey Island now that's fully released, I was rather hoping you might be willing to lend a hand with finding sources—particularly reception—for LeChuck: you're better at source-finding than I am. -- Sabre (talk) 22:52, 9 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Left Half of the half Barnstar

		The Half Barnstar
		This is for yours and Tintor's tireless work on Liu Kang's article which just recently has been edited to a point in which I believe it is ready for a GAN review. Nice job, you deserve this. Subzerosmokerain (talk) 02:08, 10 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Nathan Drake

Just wanted to take a minute to thank you for doing the GA review for the article, and for the kind words within it. Cheers! Scapler (talk) 19:22, 11 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Silent Hill characters

Since you are great with video game character articles, can you like do something about both the Nurse (Silent Hill) and the Pyramid Head articles? I don't think they should be articles, but I need a second opinion. GamerPro64 (talk) 16:42, 13 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Mario Mania

So, is there anything in the way of development information for enemies that isn't already present in their articles/the list? - The New Age Retro Hippie used Ruler! Now, he can figure out the length of things easily. 19:47, 13 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thankies. I was surprised that after two years, it only took a day to save it. :p Admittedly, the new development info did help.

And GLaDOS is decent yeah, but I haven't done any work on the Appearances section and would like to expand the Reception section some more, specifically with some more comparisons to other characters. - The New Age Retro Hippie used Ruler! Now, he can figure out the length of things easily. 20:27, 13 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Zero images for GAN

Kung Fu Man- The only issue left at Talk:Zero (Mega Man)/GA1 are related to the images. As the uploader of the images, could you take a look at File:Zero-mmx.png and File:Zero-mmx.png, and make the necessary adjustments. Once they are taken care of, I'll pass the article. (Guyinblack25 ^talk 18:56, 15 December 2009 (UTC))[reply]

Resident Evil characters

Hello! I notice on your userpage that you list Nemesis (Resident Evil) as an A-article you contributed to. Please note my workspace at User_talk:A_Nobody/List_of_decisive_battles#Resident_Evil_series. Anyway, would you like to collaborate on getting the most significant characters from the series to DYK class? The two most "notable" female characters would have to be Jill Valentine and Claire Redfield (they appear as playable characters in multiple games, appear in the movie versions, and have multiple toys made of them and therefore we should be able to find sources on their appearances in the games, movies, and as toys) and probably Leon Kennedy and Chris Redfield for the guys (the former appears in the animated movie and the latter as an action figure; both are main characters in multiple games). The others listed on my userfied page have potential, but I can accept them being in the character lists. Jilly, Claire, Leon, and Chris have the greatest likelihood of working as stand alone articles (I wouldn't be surprised if they don't appear in some top ten lists as well, which incidentally, while taking care of an ill family member, I have been going through back issues of Game Informer, Electronic Gaming Monthly, etc. to compile a master list of all of their top ten lists and if you are curious what I have discovered thus far, drop me an email; I figure no one can challenge the reliability of these particular magazines; I have been working with another on this as well as seen at User_talk:A_Nobody/Archive_25#Source_request).

For example, we have something like “the top 10 boss fights,” GameInformer 181 (May 2008): 20, which lists "9 Garrador (Resident Evil 4) Of all the tense battles in the game, there was nothing quite like the sense of being hunted in your first encounter with the vicious Garrador. These berserk and sound-sensitive gladiators could easily tear you apart with their metal claws, so you needed to drive them into a frenzy by ringing nearby bells. We still remember the terror in that brief moment when we realized the Garrador had pinpointed our location and was ready to strike." This listing and commentary could form the basis of a reception section on this character. Now for the plot section of the article on the character, the Bradygames Signature Series Guide devotes all of page 14 (three big paragraphs) specifically to this character and goes beyond just strategy type of information (noting for example the name's meaning ("man with claws"), i.e. we have two print reliable sources that provide out of universe commentary and importance. Next would be to see what kind of development information exists, but for a number of characters beyond Nemesis, we have some good sources out there. Something else to look at is “WTFiction!? Deciphering silly stories” by Jeremy Parish spread out across Electronic Gaming Monthly 221 (November 2007), Electronic Gaming Monthly 222 (December 2007), Electronic Gaming Monthly 223 (Holiday 2007), Electronic Gaming Monthly 224 (January 2008), and Electronic Gaming Monthly 225 (February 2008). Each of the installements devotes at least two full pages entirely to the items on the below list and includes (in the case of the above cited Resident Evil characters listings/commentaries on several characters, locations, weapons, etc.:

No. 5: Xenogears
No. 4: Mega Man
No. 3: Final Fantasy VII
No. 2: Resident Evil
No. 1: Metal Gear

Anyway, I think the above are some priority articles and I am inspired after they said in a review of The Darkside Chronicles on X-Play something to the effect of needing to check Wikipedia for all the back story. Also, I received the collector's edition of Resident Evil 5 for Christmas (we give out some gifts early) and it has a DVD documentary bonus figures with all sorts of interviews on the characters, even the non-playable ones like Excella. Please note that I am working with another editor whom you seem friends with on this as well and I am confident he would welcome your help to. For our discussion, please see User_talk:A_Nobody#Resident_Evil. Best, --A Nobody^{My talk} 19:42, 24 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Haunter (2)

Well, I added that with the intention of making it less about Haunter and more about the Gastly line. I think that the three of them are similar enough that the contents don't deviate too much. In regard to the specific source, I don't think it really applies in the sense of "mentioning a few handful of Pokémon" as examples; If all they did was mention Gengar as having a strange appeal to him along with Chansey and Cubone that'd be one thing, but they also explain the appeal to him. - The New Age Retro Hippie used Ruler!

If you could work on the design and video game appearances, I'd really appreciate it. Again, sorry for the long wait, but real life has been more pressing than Wikipedia. (Guyinblack25 ^talk 19:19, 11 February 2010 (UTC))[reply]

Well, seeing as I contacted you in July 09 about working on the article and didn't start until six and half months later... I guess I should cut you some slack. :-p Take your time. Wikipedia isn't going anywhere, and real life should take precedent.

I should finish up the development and promotion section soon. After that, I'll start piecing together the reception content I have. I noticed the prose's flow is off in some areas. Somethings are referenced once and then again like it's the first time, or different sections don't match up well. Basically the new content will need a good copy edit. (Guyinblack25 ^talk 17:19, 17 February 2010 (UTC))[reply]

Once you guys are more or less happy with the prose, I'll be up for a copyedit... it's not world-class, but it's a help, I think :) Der Wohltemperierte Fuchs^(talk) 22:37, 17 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I certainly welcome an extra pair of eyes to review my work. I just don't have the time or ability to give it that extra shine. (Guyinblack25 ^talk 23:36, 17 February 2010 (UTC))[reply]

You have a decent amount of information in the article already, but there may be a few things in this source that you have missed. Arcade Magazine - Issue 1

So far, the article only mentions the word "sex" once, is that realistic? - hahnch e n 00:13, 18 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Cassandra

Hey, I think your article was actually good enough and should stay. And I also believe that Taki & Mitsurugi absolutely should have their own articles too. More than Talim etc. Anyway, I approciate your efforts, man. Just don't be so hard on yourself. --Asperchu (talk) 16:30, 13 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

No, really, for me it was good enough. And do Taki, too. I just did this in the topic, you can rate this or comment or whatever. Also my other edits too. --Asperchu (talk) 16:38, 13 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Link's Awakening

Could it be a FA article, I think it is almost there. You said in a previos FAC that it need a section talking about Development, but do we have the information? Taking into account that the game is from the early 90's is hard to find something in the net. Also a censur section can be sth important to add, but it is hard to find reliable sources. Can you help? OboeCrack (talk) 16:09, 24 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Told you. Merge means delete. List of Resident Evil characters

You argued that the weren't going to delete, but merge everything as a whole, while I insisted they'd delete most everything in time. There is now a proposal to do just that. [2] Dream Focus 20:53, 26 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

A thing

Hi. While waiting for Sonic and the Secret Rings to get a GA review, I've been working on the following article: Digimon Racing. You can probably guess that there isn't much out there about it in terms of RS's. You're experienced in this business, so can you quickly look at it and tell me any glaring changes that need to be made, or just anything you notice? I don't think there would be much point to doing a full peer review. Whatever you can tell me is appreciated. Tezero (talk) 05:47, 27 March 2010 (UTC) Update: It's at peer review now, here. Stop by if you can. Tezero (talk) 03:30, 29 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Entei

I'm aware that the Entei article isn't exceptional; that's why it's in a user page. Feel free to make whatever changes you see fit on it or the Latias and Latios article I'm also working on. On the subject of Rayquaza, I opened a merge discussion on its talk page, though I think I could probably find some additional reception if I take the same route that I took with Latias and Latios. - The New Age Retro Hippie used Ruler! Now, he can figure out the length of things easily. 01:13, 4 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Also, in the case of Unown, I believe that the reviewer meant to say that Unown's nature was to be ambiguous rather than criticizing the movie for being ambiguous with Unown's alignment. - The New Age Retro Hippie used Ruler!

Hello there!

It's me Logicartery your friend from the Soul Calibur times. Just a question, I've seen you on the MobyGames external links discussion regarding the user Larson. Is it really bad to include mobygames link to ELs? I didn't particularly added some but he removed them on one article I'm somewhat adjusting. Which is somewhat disturbing, although I tried reading his intentions.--JCD ^(Talk) 13:46, 7 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Copied at Mercenaries articles

Hi, I noticed that you removed {{Copied}} templates from the Talk pages of Jennifer Mui and Mattias Nilsson (Mercenaries). I previously contacted you at #Template:Copied at Talk:Nemesis (Resident Evil) above. I prefer to keep them even if the copied content has been removed, since it may be restored from the history. If the wording is an issue, I would be happy to work on a template parameter to represent this state. Thanks. Flatscan (talk) 04:17, 23 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

RE:Quick bit about Lara Croft

That was part of the article when I started working on it, and I agree that it's out of place. The development section would be the best place for it. The source for the "increasingly bloodthirsty" content should be removed along with the two sentences. But without it, the content about feeling guilty in Anniversary doesn't make as much sense. I've meant to try to track down the game source to see how to rewrite that bit as I don't want to just cut and paste. The article is choppy enough in several areas from my edits already. (Guyinblack25 ^talk 15:21, 7 June 2010 (UTC))[reply]

Oh yeah, I was hoping you could put together a "Design" section that describes the character. I've never written one such section for a character before and believe you could do a much better and quicker job than I could. This IGN article is a good starting point, but feel free to write without sourcing. I guarantee I have print sources to back up any statement you could write from just looking at the character, past and present. (Guyinblack25 ^talk 15:28, 7 June 2010 (UTC))[reply]

I addressed the reception bit you mentioned. I'll probably added more from the Arcade: The Videogame Magazine source in "Further reading" and Getting the Girl in "External links". But I'd say the article is good enough for GAN right now, and hopefully FAC afterward. Regardless, I hope you can give it a copy edit to ensure high quality. (Guyinblack25 ^talk 14:00, 18 June 2010 (UTC))[reply]

WölffReik on the Mercenary pages

Hi. I see you've been involved with these. You've had some talk with WölffReik about these, right? I've reverted his last disinterring of several of the character articles. I'm not quite clear on the merge/AfD status on these but believe whatever worthwhile bits have been merged somewhere. I'm open to suggestion as to how we should handle this.

The Final Fantasy Legend

Wrapped up copyediting. I looked out for the usual suspects that get crucified at FAC, like additionally/with & while in some usages/including in some usages. I also made the lead more conventional and tried to deal with some overlinking, which I absolutely got hammered for at my last FAC (hah, back then, I didn't realize it could be such an issue). Feel free to revert any of the changes to better represent the source material or improve flow. ZeaLitY [ Talk - Activity ] 07:03, 11 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Re Tifa

Sorry, I was confused due to all the reverts I did last day with the Fullmetal Alchemist articles so I did not realize I was doing the opposite. And considering that FFVII had to many adult themes like Cid's way of treating his woman or Cloud going to a mansion that has... it does not seem strange that the staff thought of doing that scene.Tintor2 (talk) 16:15, 11 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

You are now a Reviewer

Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, will be commencing a a two-month trial at approximately 23:00, 2010 June 15 (UTC).

Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under flagged protection. Flagged protection is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial.

When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Wikipedia:Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.

If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Karanacs (talk) 17:27, 15 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
