:::The other templates have been created a long time before your by another editor. To delete theirs and allow yours to take presidency is highly wrong, and not cooperative in any form whatsoever. You should have sought consensus from the project talk page before going ahead and creating templates that are no required. If duplication or overlapping articles ever occur, then any editor would take into account the one made first, and the duplication would get deleted. There are templates for artists, templates for years, templates for host cities - so why create one covering all of them, it is pointless - and they will look very messy as more and more details become added to them.

A barnstar for you!

Thank you for fixing up that language debacle. We could have been here until 26 May if you didn't step in! Spa-Franks (talk) 10:51, 26 February 2012 (UTC) |
A cup of coffee for you!
Thank you for your hard work on fixing the languages issue across many different Eurovision Song Contest articles. CT Cooper · talk 11:59, 27 February 2012 (UTC) |
- Sluuuuurrrrp! Ahhhhhh! Thank you for the coffee, it came at a perfect time, and its black coffee too which has certainly woken me up. I soon hit the pillow with tiredness after doing all those changes. Wesley☀Mouse 12:39, 27 February 2012 (UTC)
Re: Alteration of Finnish Television details on various Eurovision articles
Hi Wesley I receved the infomation of the YLE broadcast of the Eurovision from a Finnish ESC fan, who gave me which years TV1 and TV2 took turns in broadcasting the contest. I could give you his contact, if you wish to double check.
Regards Mrluke485 (talk) 17:11,(UTC)
- Unfortunately that is going against no original research, as the information has been sent privately to yourself from a fan, and not from a reliable source. Therefore the information cannot be used, sorry! Wesley☀Mouse 17:14, 1 March 2012 (UTC)
Re: Engelbert Humperdinck for UK
I didn't add it, but have edited it, there is still bound to be some similarities. -- [[ axg ◉ talk ]] 22:07, 1 March 2012 (UTC)
- Its OK, I've managed to re-write it better, avoiding copyvio - Wesley☀Mouse 22:09, 1 March 2012 (UTC)
Re: nominations of various Eurovision Representatives Templates
Why did you remove all the templates I have made?? A. There is NO such templates, I made a template for ARTISTS and you mentioned the template for YEARS, I know it is very usefull because not everyone want information about years. B. There are not templates connected to artists, you can check every artist and see that after what you have done you can't go through sevral artists from the same country. C. Most important - besides adding templates I made changes because there are couple of formats for the bottom list of the artist before and after, so I wanted to go over all the artists to have the SAME format, why ruin that? Please fix this issue, I can't find any reason why not let me do job, and as I said, I wanted to do it for ALL the Eurovision artists (Hundreds of them!). — Preceding unsigned comment added by 123o (talk • contribs) 22:26, 4 March 2012 (UTC)
- As discussed with another editor (which can be seen here) we need to keep the number of template navboxes to a minimal as possible. The mass creation of such templates like the ones you created without consensus is problematic, and you should have checked with the project first before going on your own back and making them. 9 times out of 10, you'll find there are templates already in existence which cover what you expected. Currently your created templates overlap with "Country in the Eurovision Song Contest", and really either these new templates should list purely the contestants for each country (in perhaps the same style as Template:Venues of the Eurovision Song Contest).

My change
I'm sorry about my change, I didn't mean anything by it. I just noticed that Diggiloo Thrush has the extra lyrics for Norway 1973 down as "Serbo-Croat". In my mind I was doing what we had agreed upon, but if you wanna change it back then I understand. It is your work like, shouldn't have stepped on your toes. Sims2aholic8 (Michael) (talk) 23:53, 4 March 2012 (UTC)
- Yeah I noticed those too. But Bosnian was already included in the original article. What I found untidy was the language column for Norway was listing 10 different languages, so I left the ones that Diggiloo quoted, and moved the rest to a footnote; just for the fact that a previous consensus could have been reached to list it as Bosnian, that we're not aware of. Wesley☀Mouse 23:56, 4 March 2012 (UTC)
- Right I agree that 10 languages in the column wouldn't work at all, but I didn't see Bosnian listed before your changes were made. Sorry again. Sims2aholic8 (Michael) (talk) 23:58, 4 March 2012 (UTC)
