@4TheWynne: Please don't template anonymous editors with block warnings when you decide to revert their edits. If you disagree with the edits, please revert and discuss them in a civil manner without threatening to block. Your versions of the articles may be better, but this anonymous editor's edits are not "disruptive." I am posting this message here so that it is clear that these are not blatant examples of disruption for any administrator that comes along. Malinaccier (talk) 20:23, 2 August 2017 (UTC)

[edit]Your recent editing history at Hocus Pocus (song) shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.
Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

Friday the 13th
[edit]Regarding your edit summary to Friday the 13th: The Game, Jason Voorhees didn't become an undead zombie until Friday the 13th Part VI: Jason Lives. Watch the first four films, where he is a living running killer. He didn't die until Friday the 13th: The Final Chapter, when he took a machete through his head before getting stabbed repeatedly (his "death" scenes in Part II and III were simple stabbings that were retconned by the following films). And yes, his supernatural abilities were expanded upon in Jason Goes to Hell: The Final Friday and Jason X, but he didn't have any of these abilities until after his resurrection. You also brought up his drowning, but it has been stated more than once throughout the series that Jason didn't actually drown. Besides - if he did, he would still be a child by the time of Part II. DarkKnight2149 16:29, 9 October 2017 (UTC)
Umm he was clearly killed in Part 3 but came back to life at the start of Part 4. He was taken to a Hospital you really think a Hospital wouldn't know he was still alive? Jason did drown it even shows you him drowning in Part 1 very briefly. I say he was always undead therefore we shouldn't be claiming he was only undead from Part 6 onwards when he clearly miraculously comes back to life in earlier films. Also incorrect Jason died in 1957 which is confirmed by the truck driver at the start of the first film so no he wouldn't still be a child in Part 2 he'd be in his early 20's. 82.40.107.245 (talk) 16:48, 9 October 2017 (UTC)
- He didn't die in Part III. He was stabbed in the side of the head with an axe (wearing a hockey mask no less), and he woke up in the morgue in the following film... Which isn't the emergency room. He didn't become a supernatural undead zombie until Part VI, and he displayed no superhuman feats prior to that film. He was clearly a living, running killer in the first four films. He wasn't an unstoppable killing machine until Part VI (and aside from a couple of red herrings, he only died in The Final Chapter before then). As for Part I, the ending is a confirmed hallucination; likewise, there is no evidence to suggest he truly drowned. DarkKnight2149 20:18, 9 October 2017 (UTC)
He didn't die because he was already undead. He was hung as well, pretty sure any man that heavy would die from being hung from that height. Exactly he wouldn't be sent to the morgue unless he was pronounced legally dead. Therefore he did come back to life. In Part 3 he clearly did show superhuman feats I mean I don't think many men could crush another man's skull making his eye pop out with his bare hands. Also how can his strength be explained? Did he have a set of weights in his cabin or something? 82.40.107.245 (talk) 22:19, 9 October 2017 (UTC)
- I'm not going to spend too much time on this, but what I will say is that plenty of people have woken up in the morgue in real life (news stories of such can be a bit unnerving). The characters involved, especially the doctors at the morgue, also weren't particularly competent and Jason wasn't the only "body" at the crime scene. The implication is that Jason is just a strong man; in Part II, he is seen constantly wrestling with the male protagonist, and there is a bit of that in Part III as well. Friday the 13th has never been realistic. Crushing one mans head with brute strength is nothing compared to some of the stuff Zombie Jason has done later in the franchise. Also, if he were always "undead" as you say, why wasn't he given a more definitive "death" in The Final Chapter (which was intended to kill him off)? And how did he suddenly go from being a vulnerable, running killer in Final Chapter to being the slow moving unstoppable Hulk in Part VI and beyond? Even the makers of the films, as well as the people behind Friday the 13th: The Game have acknowledged that he was a living killer in the series' initial four films. In fact, Jason Voorhees (Derek Mears) in Friday the 13th (2009) was intended to be based on the original, living Jason and be a departure from the slow moving Jason of late (though that film wasn't very good in my opinion, that's a whole different discussion). DarkKnight2149 22:41, 9 October 2017 (UTC)
Which is a rare occurrence i'm sure even rarer for someone who was hung from the top of a barn and axed in the head to wake up despite being pronounced dead. How can you say they're not competent? Their ability at their job had never been shown. How is it nothing compared to what he's done later in the franchise? What has he done later in the franchise that makes him appear even stronger? Idk i'm not Joseph Zito or Tom Savini you'll have to ask them that. You could also ask how did he put on so much muscle between Part 2 and 3 when Part 3 is supposed to be the next day. The amount of muscle he put on would take at least a year of intense training. The answer's simple it's a director's decision. None of the Jason's have been particularly consistent with all of them looking and appearing different, even the ones played by the same person. 82.40.107.245 (talk) 02:23, 10 October 2017 (UTC)

Making edits while logged out reveals your IP address, which may allow others to determine your location and identity.

Unsubstantiated edits
[edit]Please avoid making edits based on original research, as you did at Freddy Krueger. Per our policies on citing sources and verifiability, "It's clearly not Robert's voice" is not a good enough reason to remove reliably sourced material. If the developer (Ed Boon) says that Robert Englund voiced the character, then that's what we are going by. If you disagree, then please find a reliable source that contradicts it. Thank you. DarkKnight2149 02:00, 29 November 2017 (UTC)
- And in regards to this, Ed Boon's Twitter account has been verified. It would only qualify as "not a source" if it wasn't verified. DarkKnight2149 02:05, 29 November 2017 (UTC)
Friday the 13th
[edit]There are 2 issues here. First, youtube isn't reliable not because of what is being shown, but because video links are unstable and can be deleted whenever. Then you no longer have a source. Second, videos of conventions have a history of getting deleted for copyright issues. Second, the cast section is a reflection of actual credits, not what is "true". You would need to explain the situation in prose below the cast, without changing they way they are credited in the film. BIGNOLE (Contact me) 22:58, 19 December 2017 (UTC)
In this instance the video in question is an official upload from the host seen in the video so there is no chance it will be deleted for copyright infringement. 82.40.107.245 (talk) 23:31, 19 December 2017 (UTC)
- Ok, then you're still left with what I said before. You don't change a cast list that is based on actual crediting in the film. THat stuff is connected the actor's guilds and stunt guilds. They are credited that way on purpose. You can discuss in prose below about who was filming certain scenes as a character. BIGNOLE (Contact me) 02:12, 20 December 2017 (UTC)
Not always, for example in Wes Craven's New Nightmare Freddy Krueger is a credited as "Himself" which is impossible because Freddy Krueger is not a real person. 82.40.107.245 (talk) 08:06, 20 December 2017 (UTC)
- Providing an exception to the situation that is clearly meant more as a joke doesn't change the fact that when it comes to actual, legal credits, we go by how the studio has them listed. There is a reason that he's not given actual credit for that scene, and that's because it wasn't significant enough to earn credit. It's the reason Joss Whedon doesn't have a co-directing credit for "Justice League", because the director's guild has a percentage requirement to earn that credit. Actors have a percentage requirement as well. That isn't even restricted to just this Friday the 13th film. It happened on other ones as well. A few of them to be more clear. BIGNOLE (Contact me) 19:36, 21 December 2017 (UTC)
It seems different rules apply to different articles. Plenty of times I have seen "Uncredited" sections in articles but according to you these cannot be listed because they're not "official". What about articles on films where the director has officially credited himself as "Alan Smithee", those articles still put his real name in them. 82.40.107.245 (talk) 20:34, 21 December 2017 (UTC)

[edit] You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Symphony for the Devil (Type O Negative album). Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.
Please be particularly aware that Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states:
- Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made.
- Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.
If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection.

[edit]Hello, I'm FlightTime. Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. I noticed that you unlinked one or more redlinks from Vixen (band). Often redlinks can be helpful, so we don't remove them just because they are red. They help improve Wikipedia by attracting editors to create needed articles.
In addition, clicking on the "What links here" special link (in the Wikipedia Toolbox at left) on a missing article shows how many—and which—articles depend on that article being created. This can help prioritize article creation. Redlinks are useful! Please, only remove a redlink if you are pretty sure that it is to a non-notable topic and not likely ever to be created.
