Hi Telecineguy, and let me echo the welcome to Wikipedia! I notice you've made a lot of edits to television and videotape-related articles, and I just thought I should mention WP:JARGON (ie, just remember Wikipedia is for a general audience) and WP:CAPS (Wikipedia capitalization), though by the looks of your most recent edits, you might have read these already!

As someone who obviously knows something about the tech side of things, I'd be interested on your take on two articles I started, An Evening with Fred Astaire and The Edsel Show, if you can add anything to them. If, for example, you know anything about the technical issues regarding 405-line television (and BBC One, which contains the early history of the BBC Television Service), please add it. Of course, there are lots of other articles - just follow the links or check the categories at the bottom to find those that are related.

I hope you enjoy your time here on Wikipedia! Regards, ProhibitOnions ^(T) 22:52, 5 March 2007 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Thank you for subject article. I have just one suggestion. Are you quite certain the five-inch gun mounted on these tankers was the 5"/25? The 5-inch/38-caliber gun was much more widely used on defensively equipped merchant ships. Thewellman (talk) 21:27, 12 June 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

• Good eye, link fixed, to correct gun: 5-inch/38-caliber gun

	For your amazing article, Naval Base Trinidad!! Buckshot06 (talk) 11:27, 6 August 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Many thanks again for the super article!! Buckshot06 (talk) 11:29, 6 August 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Hate to mention it, but this article has a typo:

The US Navy started construction at Trinidad on January 193, 1941

I saw what you did with the List of auxiliaries of the United States Navy § Fleet Ocean Tugs (ATF, T-ATF) and was inspired by it. I thought that this 'see also' link belonged better with the earlier List of auxiliaries of the United States Navy § Fleet Tugs (AT) section, so I extensively revised it and added multiple V type boat wlinks, one for each class. Please take a look! Tfdavisatsnetnet (talk) 19:20, 27 August 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

• Thank you. Telecine Guy (talk) 19:22, 27 August 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

I saw your changes to this article, and I made the following enhancements:

1) I increased the size of the lead image to make it more attractive

2) I consolidated the 2 references to Miller's War Plan Orange into 1. Question: where does Miller reference gate craft? As far as I can see there is only one location the book where nets are mentioned at all. I suspect that we both have the ebook version which does not have page numbers.

Also you don't have a page number for the first citation you added, the one from Friedman. Can you add it?

Thanks! Tfdavisatsnetnet (talk) 05:43, 10 January 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

• 1)Thank you for the change to the picture.

2) Added Page 67 to the boom defence vessel. I have a pdf with page 67. Telecine Guy (talk) 06:02, 10 January 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Hi Telecineguy! Thank you for getting Weston Havens House up in mainspace. Looks like you did a copy-paste of the content from Draft:Weston Havens House to create the new article, which is alright, but it's more efficient to "move" the article from draft to mainspace (File:Moving an English Wikipedia article from Draft to Mainspace.pdf), because that preserves the article history, creates the redirect, and redirects the talk page, all in one fell swoop. Dreamyshade (talk) 22:28, 19 October 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

• Sorry, will remember next time, to late now. Was started with credit: Dreamyshade started in July 16, 2023. Telecine Guy (talk) 23:21, 19 October 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

• If you need something, it is still there: [1]

• No worries, I appreciate that you went ahead and got it published! Just might save you a minute next time. :) Dreamyshade (talk) 05:11, 20 October 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

I have never understood how to give out barnstars so in lieu, here is an award I just invented: Congrats to you Telecineguy as the inaugural winner of Smol California Butterfly Award! You have done excellent article-creation work for many years (Naval Base San Pedro comes to mind) but thank you especially for all the recent California Historical Landmark article creations. Nice job. jengod (talk) 20:44, 2 November 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Hi Telecineguy! I noticed that you recently marked a number of edits as minor that were not minor. "Minor edit" has a very specific definition on Wikipedia—it refers only to superficial edits that could never be the subject of a dispute, such as typo corrections or reverting obvious vandalism. Any edit that changes the meaning of an article is not a minor edit, even if it only concerns a single word. Please see Help:Minor edit for more information.

I also noticed that you added some sources that fall short of the reliable source guidelines. I've removed several of them. If you'd like to find better citations and add them to the article, please do so. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. More specifically, user generated content such as forum posts, photographs on photograph sharing sites, etc. are not sources that should be used in articles. See WP:RSSELF and WP:UGC for more information. Please don't remove the ((Unreliable sources)) template from the article until there's talk page consensus on removing it. Daniel Quinlan (talk) 21:08, 3 November 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

• Thank you for the feedback on minor edits.
• There was no note on the talk page about, reliable sources. The tags in the page there now for reliable sources was not there when I remove the tag. It is not go to tag and run, that many do, with no post on the talk page about the tage. I removed the tag as I added many sources after the tag. Telecine Guy (talk) 00:59, 4 November 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

  Thanks for responding. However, I'm concerned that the feedback about marking changes appropriately appears to have been overlooked, as you subsequently made two non-minor edits and marked both as being minor. Please do not continue to do this.

  Please also read those links regarding sources. It doesn't matter how many sources you add when the sources are unreliable, user-generated (such as forum posts), etc. Daniel Quinlan (talk) 02:42, 4 November 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Thanks for uploading File:SimpsonSpenceYounglogo.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 17:40, 4 November 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

• Fixed, Thank you, Telecine Guy (talk) 23:20, 4 November 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you. Daniel Quinlan (talk) 22:47, 5 November 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

If you continue to mark non-minor edits as minor, as you have been doing, you will be indefinitely blocked from editing the article mainspace until you can convince an administrator that the block is no longer necessary. I highly encourage you to take part in the discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents#Misuse of minor edit flag by User:Telecineguy. - Aoidh (talk) 01:00, 6 November 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Hi Telecineguy: I've turned Chris Wade (real estate broker), an article you created in 2007, into a redirect to Bill Clinton pardon controversy. See my edit summary for the rationale. Before doing so, I added him to the list of people pardoned by Clinton on his last day in office, using a reference from the article plus a news article. (I made a search to assess notability and found that there were articles in several major news sources from the day he pled guilty, none of which we were using, but otherwise nothing; I couldn't even substantiate the article's statement that he was sentenced to 15 years.) Since you created the article, and also removed the PROD, letting you know about my WP:BOLD action. Yngvadottir (talk) 07:43, 6 November 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

I wanted to let you know that your autopatrolled user right has been removed per this ANI discussion. Please note that lack of autopatrolled doesn't affect how you edit; it is used only to manage the workload of new page patrollers. - Aoidh (talk) 02:46, 9 November 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
