Welcome
Hello and welcome to Wikipedia! Hope you like it here, and stick around.
Here are some tips to help you get started:
- To sign your posts (on talk pages, for example) use the '~' symbol. To insert just your name, type ~~~ (3 tildes), or, to insert your name and timestamp, use ~~~~ (4 tildes).
- Try the Tutorial, and feel free to experiment in the test area.
- If you need help, post a question at the Help Desk
- Follow the Wikipedia:Simplified Ruleset
- Eventually, you might want to read the Manual of Style and Policies and Guidelines.
- Remember Wikipedia:Neutral point of view
- Explore, be bold in editing pages, and, most importantly, have fun!
Good luck!

Thanks for your message. In the latest months I've created pages for Bob Sinclar, Modjo, Joey Negro, Snap!, Ron Carroll. I've also made some updates to Boris Dlugosch, Rui Da Silva, Blaze and Jason Nevins. If you feel you can add anything to them, feel free.
Also, please take a look at the musician article requests and see if you recognize any name. I intend to do some of them later, especially the deep house artists. --Pc13 08:29, 17 August 2005 (UTC)
Dance Artists
Please watch your stubs! Hi Robert, please pay attention when placing solo artists into categories, for example if you were to put Mariah Carey into "female singers" you need to type it as "Category:Female singers|Carey, Mariah" so that the name is properly alphabetized on the category page. Thanks! -- eo 13:44, 23 August 2005 (UTC)
Radio stations
According to WikiProject Radio Stations, WXXX (AM) is the preferred format for AM radio station articles. There's no such thing as a radio station with an "-AM" suffix; all AM radio stations are unsuffixed. If you disagree, could you please discuss it with them rather than creating or moving existing articles to titles that aren't in accordance with the current policy? Thanks. Bearcat 19:30, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
Request for edit summary
Hi. I am a bot, and I am writing to you with a request. I would like to ask you, if possible, to use edit summaries a bit more often when you contribute. The reason an edit summary is important is because it allows your fellow contributors to understand what you changed; you can think of it as the "Subject:" line in an email. For your information, your current edit summary usage is 1% for major edits and 100% for minor edits. (Based on the last 150 major and 27 minor edits in the article namespace.)
This is just a suggestion, and I hope that I did not appear impolite. You do not need to reply to this message, but if you would like to give me feedback, you can do so at the feedback page. Thank you, and happy edits, Mathbot 04:06, 25 February 2006 (UTC)
Toronto radio templates
If you're going to put the Toronto AM and FM templates on stations in Oshawa and Hamilton as well as stations in Toronto, then could you please not put the Category:Radio stations in Toronto category on the template? Stations in Hamilton and Oshawa don't belong in the Toronto category, because they're not in Toronto, but putting the category on the template automatically applies the category to every article the template is on. Thanks. Bearcat 18:51, 6 April 2006 (UTC)
RN
Since RN is Australia-wide, it's a bit pointless adding templates for radio stations in every major city that RN is also broadcasted in. We already have a list of radio stations in Australia. Perhaps you might like to make a template consisting of Australia-wide radio stations? Dysprosia 03:35, 8 April 2006 (UTC)
Edit summaries
Hey Robert, I was just going to leave this on your RfA before I saw Essjay closed it. I'll repost it word-for word in what I was going to say:
- Comment: Check Wikiproject User scripts for a tool that will get you in the practice of using an edit summary. While a little annoying at first, I've checked mathbot a few times, and my summary usage has been at 100%. You have to understand that I typically don't oppose, and I feel bad about doing so, but I'd like you to get acquainted with the community a bit more. Forgive me for being a metapedian to your exopedian, but I guess that's just how RfAs are nowadays. Good luck to you in the future and let me know if I can help at all, Mysekurity [m!] 03:06, 19 April 2006 (UTC)
Canadian FM stations
For your information : all Canadian FM stations have an -FM suffix to their call sign, unless they are extremely low-power stations with a VF- seminumeric call sign. Moving articles to titles without the -FM suffix does not conform to Wikipedia naming conventions and is incorrect in any case. — ABCXYZ (talk) 23:07, 9 May 2006 (UTC)
Radio Monitor
Hey that's cool - the Billboard issue date and song didn't match, that's all. Wasn't sure if the date or song was incorrect and as I'm a Billboard.com/Billboard.biz subscriber that's what I had to go on. -- eo 10:41, 21 June 2006 (UTC)
- Hi again - just curious as to what issue date you're going by for the Hot Dance Airplay article. If Billboard has Saturday issue dates, and the 06/24 issue has Madonna at number one, wouldn't the issue date be 07/01 for Nick Lachey taking over? For example, when Billboard issues its next round of charts (Hot Dance Airplay included), the website and print editions will not be dated June 25. -- eo 17:44, 21 June 2006 (UTC)
- I figured it was something along those lines. I was going to suggest we decide on which issue date to go with, but your suggestion of sticking with Billboard makes sense. Best to keep all Billboard-related articles uniform, right? Thanks.... July 1 sounds best for the Lachey thingy. Talk to ya later! -- eo 18:41, 21 June 2006 (UTC)

Max Headroom Episodes Subcategory
Thank you for organizing an episodes subcategory for Max Headroom.--P Todd 23:51, 27 July 2006 (UTC)
Thanks for your comments: it is a new tag.
Thanks for your comments regarding {{catdiffuse}}. It is a new tag: I was cleaning up the Politics section and I noticed that the users and myself have a nasty habit for using general categories. My WP:INT project can apply to categories too: better subcategories to integrate content and reduce redundancy. Now if more people will go along with it, that would help things. Cwolfsheep 23:05, 3 August 2006 (UTC)
Dance categories
Hi, the new Category:Dance musical groups is a good idea. Other genre categories split up groups and solo artists, so the dance categories should do the same. I have placed the new cat in the Category:Musical groups by genre and Category:Dance musicians categories as Category:Dance/Club music artists is being merged into Category:Dance musicians. --musicpvm 22:59, 3 August 2006 (UTC)
- Also, based on previous discussions including Category talk:Categories named after people, most users have agreed that the only category that should be placed in an eponymous category is Category:Categories named after people or one of its subcategories. So for eponymous categories for musicians and musical groups (for example Category:Ace of Base), the only category that should be included is Category:Categories named after musicians. All other categories should be placed in the actual article. Thanks. --musicpvm 00:46, 4 August 2006 (UTC)
I thought that I would drop you a line , as I was bold and moved the R&R article from your name R&R(Magazine) since it is standard to have a space before the parentheses. I love what you wrote in the article!
I see we have several things in common, including Wisconsin and an interest in electronic music. Very Cool! --Royalbroil 04:44, 5 August 2006 (UTC)
Hi! I have a question. In the first sentence of the R&R (magazine) article, there is the word "cumes". I think either a replacement word or a definition of that would be appropriate -- I'd do it, but I'm not quite sure what it is supposed to mean myself. Thanks! -- ArglebargleIV 22:17, 12 August 2006 (UTC)
- Thank you!! -- ArglebargleIV 22:56, 12 August 2006 (UTC)
Please do not remove a wikify tag when the article clearly needs to be wikified. Thank you. Ohyeahmormons 00:52, 12 September 2006 (UTC)
- What I mean by wikified is that it needs to be in a proper form of an entry. The information isn't bad, but it needs to be edited properly like an article. The tag is there so one of the more experienced users can edit it correctly. :) Ohyeahmormons 01:43, 12 September 2006 (UTC)
Excellent--thanks for adding the categories. I'm not good at that sort of thing. I am surprised by how little action the Vanished pages have gotten. I've tried to put in place a framework that others can augment, but a lot of work can still be done. Thanks! Transcendentalstate 12:54, 13 September 2006 (UTC)

Television series by network
I don't know if you're still doing this,[1] but please don't categorize television series by any network other than the one for which they were originally produced, which will include more than one only if it was a joint production (such as Rome). Rerun airings or international broadcasts in secondary markets are not definitive of the subject, compared to the network that ordered its production and can or did order its cancellation. Not limiting them in this manner also would inevitably result in a flood of dozens of categories on every TV series article that has been shown globally at one time or another. See the WikiProject Television[[2]] on this, as well as a prior discussion showing consensus for this narrow application. Apologies if this is now a moot point. Postdlf 01:25, 17 November 2006 (UTC)
- Sorry, didn't notice until just now the section above titled "categories" that already addressed this issue. Postdlf 01:27, 17 November 2006 (UTC)
link to British
Hello, when you want to link to the article about something British, please do not link to British, as that is a disambiguation page (which nothing should be linked to). Instead link to the one of the options found on that page such as United Kingdom or Great Britain by writing out [[United Kingdom|British]] or [[Great Britain|British]]. Regards, Jeff3000 20:36, 21 November 2006 (UTC)
Billboard links
Hi Robert, just letting you know I reverted your edit to the external links on the Hot Dance Club Play article. I don't think the links should point to Billboard.biz because users are required to pay for a subscription and have a login ID to view those pages, whereas on Billboard.com it is free and the link takes readers right to the chart page, even though it is not the full chart. If you disagree with this let me know - perhaps both could be listed? - eo 21:18, 18 December 2006 (UTC)
- Hmmmmm interesting! Although it may be your subscription to R&R that allows you in, as they have merged. Try logging out of your R&R account and see if you can view charts on .biz. I'll do the same with my browser and see what happens. - eo 21:39, 18 December 2006 (UTC)
- I guess so! I thought at first maybe there was a glitch with the sites, but I was also able (without loggging in) to go to R&R and look at the full charts and access all the info - and I've never subscribed to R&R. Makes me wonder now why I am paying for a subscription when just anyone can get the full listings... although I too get the print issues in the mail. Seems kind of silly to have the full charts on one site and abbreviated charts on another, don't you think? Go figure. - eo 21:56, 18 December 2006 (UTC)

Re:Ugly Betty
Hi Robert, thanks for letting me know about the changed circumstances of the Ugly Betty characters. I had a feeling when I closed the AfD that the article would eventually need to be split up if the series took off, so I have no problems with this being done. If there are any technical problems with moving articles that require admin tools to fix, please let me know and I'll do what I can. Cheers, Deathphoenix ʕ 04:18, 7 January 2007 (UTC)

CHBN-FM Article in need of cleanup - please assist if you can
Hi Robert,
You recently added affiliation details on Wikipedia's article for WKBT, a television station in La Crosse, Wisconsin. You added comments on secondary affiliations with NBC and DuMont. Do you have a source for this information? Someone (not I) has tagged the information with a (citation needed) tag, and I'm hoping to be able to verify the information you've provided, so that it can be kept in the article, and so that I can use the information on the List of former DuMont Television Network affiliates. Best wishes, Firsfron of Ronchester 02:05, 24 January 2007 (UTC)
Howdy! I noticed you moved the content of Talk:Vidas de Fuego/Temp to Vidas de Fuego/Temp. Should it go to Vidas de Fuego or do we need to wait for the copyvio template to be removed? (I haven't worked with copyvio before, so I am not sure.) - fmmarianicolon | Talk 08:28, 26 January 2007 (UTC)
- Thanks for the compliments on the changes to the two pages, and thanks for working to move the page! - fmmarianicolon | Talk 21:32, 26 January 2007 (UTC)
- I thought we had to wait a week to see if the original creator of the page wanted to contest the copyvio. Jaysbro 16:23, 29 January 2007 (UTC)

That is fine, but it is still in no way clear how she meets WP:BIO criteria in the article, so that would be something to work on here. I've also removed Personal Interests per WP:TRIV. Cheers!--Isotope23 12:06, 7 February 2007 (UTC)
I reverted your edit to the above article regarding Molly Shannon's character as speculation. While I think that you may have a point, it is still ambiguous enough to where we would need a source to say that is what the writers were going for with that joke. They may have also been using a comically-Irish Catholic name, too. youngamerican (ahoy hoy) 03:23, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
Buses WikiProject
I notice that you have edited lists of bus routes recently. You might be interested in helping with the new WikiProject buses, especially the proposed Bus route list guide. We are also working out when a bus route should have its own article and other issues. --NE2 15:38, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
A friendly tip
If you want to have articles appear in a category under the subject's last name, or any other name, you can type {{DEFAULTSORT|Lastname, Firstname}} at the beginning of the category list, and all the categories will automatically follow the stipulation. I haven't done this myself, but I've seen it done. YechielMan 05:03, 29 April 2007 (UTC)

Hybrid buses
Please double-check when adding Category:Transit authorities with hybrid buses to certain articles. I have already removed the category from the LACMTA and MBTA articles. Neither LACMTA nor MBTA operate hybrid buses. LACMTA is mostly a compressed natural gas (CNG) fleet, which are not identical to hybrids. As for MBTA, the confusion might lie in their dual-mode electric/diesel trolleybuses, rather than true diesel-electric hybrids. ANDROS1337 22:04, 24 June 2008 (UTC)

Number-one dance airplay hits of 200x (U.S.)
Hey there.... I know you're a major contributor to this info - hope you're OK with what I did here. Thanks for clearing up the 2003 page.... I went through every week from 2003-present on Billboard's online archive to make sure all issue dates and number-ones were completely correct, although since they had those "unpublished" weeks, their online info was incomplete for the chart's beginning. I realize that this is a component chart but as you know that main article was just going to become way too huge and cluttered if it continued as it was. Let me know if I made any glaring mistakes!

Similarly, I also intend to expand and properly reference most of those other related articles. Please note that in the template "state" refers to collapsed or not - nothing to do with Wisconsin. -Secondarywaltz (talk) 22:16, 5 March 2009 (UTC)
Invitation to Meetup/Seattle6, a focus group
Hello. I'm part of a research group at the University of Washington (Seattle campus), and my group is reaching out to Wikipedians in the Puget Sound area. We're hosting a focus group designed to gather information on what Wikipedians would like to know about each other when interacting on Wikipedia. Our end goal is to create an embedded application that helps people quickly know more about others' history and activity on Wikipedia, and we feel our design will be much more useful if it's based on insights of users like you.
I'm hoping that the chance to help out local researchers, to engage in lively face-to-face discussion with other Seattle Wikipedians, and to contribute to Wikipedia in a new way will entice you to join us. The session lasts 2 hours and snacks are provided. Sessions will be held on UW Seattle campus - directions will be sent after registration. Your contribution will be greatly appreciated!

WFMX
Do you have any sources for the information you added to the WMKS article? After their recent format change I decided to do some tinkering and discovered most of the article is unsourced.
I don't doubt any of what you said except that the station was picked up in Raleigh-Durham. Asheville, probably. Greenville-Spartanburg, maybe. Tri-Cities, Tennessee, more than likely. But Raleigh-Durham? I don't think so.
I also remember them building that Rowan County tower late in the 1980s and can't believe I never added that. I know Broadcasting Magazine could be a source for that, but let's face facts. Even the library databases only go back to the mid-1980s. I'm not going to waste my time at Wake Forest looking for stuff that can probably be found through some other means. I go to UNC-Charlotte even less often, but Broadcasting and Cable Yearbook or whatever it was called could also be used. Would you know of anything?Vchimpanzee · talk · contributions · 18:16, 25 May 2009 (UTC)
KHCM
Hello there. I saw that you did a split on this article and turned it into a disambiguation page. I've come in behind you to clean up a few things, and I wanted to point them out in case this situation ever presents itself again:
- I've done a null edit to both KHCM-AM and KHCM-FM indicating the source of the content. When you do a page split like this, it's important to note in your edit summaries the fact that you've taken the content from the originating page or that you've moved the content to the receiving page. This ensures that the correct history is maintained for attribution and licensing purposes
- I've moved KHCM-AM to KHCM (AM). While this article does need something to distinguish it from KHCM-FM, AM radio stations in the United States never use the '-AM' suffix. So, the convention that's used is to put the 'AM' in parentheses instead
- I've revised a number of other articles to point to either KHCM (AM), KHCM-FM, or both, as appropriate. When you create a disambiguation page like this, it's important to check the 'What links here' link to make sure that there are no articles pointing to it — it's very rare that there should be
Just a friendly heads-up. Nice job on the split itself, by the way — too often that sort of stuff just sits around here undone. Mlaffs (talk) 14:18, 3 July 2009 (UTC)

Hello Robert Moore! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot alerting you that 7 of the articles that you created are tagged as Unreferenced Biographies of Living Persons. The biographies of living persons policy requires that all personal or potentially controversial information be sourced. In addition, to ensure verifiability, all biographies should be based on reliable sources. If you were to bring these articles up to standards, it would greatly help us with the current 3 article backlog. Once the articles are adequately referenced, please remove the {{unreferencedBLP}} tag. Here is the list:

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. Gigs (talk) 16:53, 19 April 2010 (UTC)

Re: Living Lohan
Yeah, I'm not an Ali Lohan or a Living Lohan fan. Not that my opinion on the subject matters but, I find the entire Lohan clan rather useless as a whole. I watch the article because I work on quite a few television show articles and people have a tendency to change the tense in lede when a show is no longer airing and that happens to be a pet peeve of mine. I saw the exchange on the talk page and I commented because I thought it would be somewhat helpful. I'll think twice before doing that again. Good night. Pinkadelica♣ 04:27, 4 June 2010 (UTC)
You are now a Reviewer
Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, will be commencing 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. Courcelles (talk) 21:57, 15 June 2010 (UTC)

Collaborative news on quippd
Hey, I noticed that you had recently edited the Emmys article, and I hoped that you could help out on another collaborative community edited project.
I run quippd, a collaboratively edited social news site, which mixes elements of Wikis, social networking, and social news sites. You can get some more information about what we are doing at: http://quippd.com/about/intro
Basically, we want to get good coverage on news stories, collaboratively edited, like Wikipedia. We are trying to take the ideas of WikiFactCheck -- to make news less biased and speedier (unlike something like Wikinews). By combining social elements to the project, we hope to bring the benefits of wiki enabled fact checking and npov ideas to the masses.
I hope you check us out -- and feel free to contact me with any questions, comments, or concerns.

Hi! Would you mind fulfilling some photograph requests at Honolulu Airport?
Your profile says that you work at the airport, so hopefully it will be convenient for you to photograph the building.
Some places at the airport and in the area:

- Headquarters of Island Air - 99 Kapalulu Place Honolulu, Hawai’i 96819
- Honolulu Main Post Office - 3600 AOLELE ST RM 209 HONOLULU, HI
- Federal Detention Center, Honolulu - 351 ELLIOTT ST, HONOLULU, HI 96819
- While there is a PD pic at http://www.bop.gov/locations/institutions/hon/graphics/HON.jpg - it may be nice to have a higher quality pic of the exterior or main gate with the words "FDC Honolulu"
- Headquarters of Aloha Air Cargo - 371 Aokea Place Honolulu, HI 96819 - Map
- Mokulele Airlines offices - 150 Kaulele Place • Honolulu, HI 96819

DYK for The Jeremy Kyle Show (U.S. TV series)
On 9 August 2011, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article The Jeremy Kyle Show (U.S. TV series), which you created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that there is to be a US version of Jeremy Kyle's successful British talk series? You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, quick check) and add it to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000.

Top 40 update
If you haven't noticed, I have taken the unsourced "by year" lists of number ones on the Rhythmic chart and created fully sourced lists of number ones on the chart by decade. I've reached the current decade, where you have added sources for each of the individual years to a Top 40 Update link, which is great because those update sheets are rather informative. I was planning on keeping those sources until I read the disclaimer in them that says "Chart data presented is this update is preliminary and subject to change, pending final review by Billboard and BDS." While it may be rare where a final review results in a change at number one, since the data is not considered final, I am not sure it can be deemed reliable. Since the Billboard update of their Biz side of its website, it is now possible to view the number one song for most weeks of any chart even without a subscription, and I have been pointing to those as the source. As you are the main contributor to these articles and have a personal interest in them, I'd like to know if you find it acceptable for me to continue and complete the decade lists in this manner? Thanks. --StarcheerspeaksnewslostwarsTalk to me 18:09, 13 May 2013 (UTC)

Help
I don't watch Once Upon A Time, but as I remembered Rapunzel once appeared in this series. Could you add a piece about this to Rapunzel (Disney) as what you did on Elsa (Disney)?
However I'm not sure if the Rapunzel in Once Upon A Time shares any similarities/basis with the Tangled's Rapunzel, or that's a completely different character. If not, then Once Upon A Time's Rapunzel shouldn't be included in the article about Tangled's Rapunzel. Please help with this. ALittleQuenhi (talk to me) 17:14, 12 May 2014 (UTC)
Capitalization of radio formats
Hello, I've seen all the contributions you've made to 2014 in radio and I've often edited those so that they follow Wikipedia's Manual of Style. Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Capital letters, at MOS:GENRECAPS, says "Radio formats such as adult contemporary or classic rock are also not capitalized." I don't mind going in and making the fixes, but I thought that if you could follow the rule as expressed at MOS:GENRECAPS, things could be correct immediately.

Dance club songs
Hey! How are you doing? Just giving a heads-up... when you update the new #1 on the songs list, please remember to update the ref for the prior week also. Billboard deletes the "chart highlights" articles once the new charts are published, which leaves a dead link in Wikipedia. Therefore we need to repoint the prior week's source directly to the chart itself. I've left an example here: [3]. You may also want to check the dance airplay lists too; I know you work on those. Thanks! - eo (talk) 11:52, 7 April 2015 (UTC)
