Quality of screenshots

Your screenshots for Trailer Park Boys appear to be of inferior quality. Can you please find better sources for these? It appeared that a previous user was able to and the ones you've uploaded also appear to be cropped weirdly. --Ben41 (talk) 01:58, 30 March 2014 (EDT)

Also, pepper spray doesn't qualify as an entry. --Ben41 (talk) 01:59, 30 March 2014 (EDT)

TPB poster

The poster you posted is for a specific film, which, as far as I know, is not covered on the page. If you want to cover that film, then you can create a new page just for the film. --Funkychinaman (talk) 22:39, 1 April 2014 (EDT)

Deletion

Hello, Slum 5050. I'm not absolutely sure, but, as far, as I known, according the rules: Rule2.1.5

Both pages contain a single firearm, but both a clearly IDed. As well, the gun wielding characters and actors are also IDed. This gun is seen firing onscreen. Not sure about Big Bounce, The (1969)‎ (as it was created by another user, administrator Ben41), but the shotgun in the Highwaymen‎ are seen many times throughout the movie and fired many times. So, it's real gun, so, I guess, that this pages are eligible. Pyramid Silent (talk) 16:11, 9 September 2020 (EDT)

Oh I see, I was unaware it was a major prop. I will unflag! --Slum 5050 (talk) 16:30, 9 September 2020 (EDT)
hey Pryamid I'm also not trying to delete any pages created by an admin aha, thanks...--Slum 5050 (talk) 16:54, 9 September 2020 (EDT)
Hello, again. I hadn't watch the Insidious movie, so, I'm not sure about Insidious page, but once again: while the only a single firearm appeared in this movie, it can be clearly IDed, it's not a toy, but a real gun, the actor-characters also IDed.

The rule tells: 1) the firearm is identifiable, well seen and important to the story. A film where 'some character' wields an 'unknown revolver' means nothing. 3) it must drive the plot forward and not be an 'incidental' prop (like something hanging on the wall in the background). 4) the single firearm rule only applies if the firearm is real. If it is an obvious toy or airsoft gun, then it does not qualify. Having a lone character wave around an 'orange plug' airsoft toy does not merit a page. If the film is filled with various replica or high quality airsoft weapons than can fool the casual viewer, then it qualifies, if only to shine light upon the fact that the guns are fakes.

So, I guess, that this page is eligible. Also, I had removed spoilers, add actor credit and director category. But, anywhere, I hadn't watch this movie, so I hadn't remove the "Noeffort" template, leave it's to Admin's decision. Pyramid Silent (talk) 18:41, 16 October 2020 (EDT)

Re: Insidious

Hey. I personally think it can stay. I mean it was fine for 9 years. But if other admins disagree, they will delete it. - bozitojugg3rn4ut (talk) 12:13, 27 September 2020 (EDT)


ID

THat's not a Kel-Tec. It's probably a Beretta Px4 Storm.--Ben41 (talk) 17:43, 16 October 2020 (EDT)

Re: Issue

Hi! Unfortunately, account activation is beyond my competence. Only Bunni, our Chief Executive Officer, is responsible for this. I can only advise to email Bunni using a link on his page. You can also write about the problem on the forum. Sorry that I cannot help. --Greg-Z (talk) 15:01, 20 October 2020 (EDT)

No, I cannot rename users. My admin privileges are mostly about deleting, undeleting and other janitor work.--Greg-Z (talk) 15:23, 20 October 2020 (EDT)
Weird, you're right emails aren't going out. I'll check on the email service this weekend. I'm approving all the backed up accounts now. --bunni (talk) 00:16, 22 October 2020 (EDT)
