I was looking for talk page access revoked template and came across the one you created. However, I also just discovered {{Uw-blocknotalk}} which is very similar and handles a few different options. Perhaps you can merge the two templates together? -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 05:08, 7 September 2011 (UTC)

That's a really good question. I'm not sure either way, although it is possible to merge them. I've started a discussion at WP:TFD#Template:Uw-talkpageremoved where anyone is welcome to discuss the issue. HeyMid (contribs) 16:16, 7 September 2011 (UTC)

Marek Haščák

When updating an article, please try to build upon the content which is already within the article, and not just delete/change the content. When you remove old information to update and article, as you did with Marek Haščák, it does nothing to expand the article and only serves to remove referenced facts and content, and to actually shortens what is already a stub article.

If you feel that factual changes require inline citations, then I'm happy to add that. But, on the other hand, the transfer is noted at, for example, Eliteprospects. Cheers, HeyMid (contribs) 15:43, 7 September 2011 (UTC)
My concern is that you are needlessly deleting content. Please build upon what is already in the article. Dolovis (talk) 12:59, 9 September 2011 (UTC)
I do not consider it necessary to keep information about expired try-out contracts, especially because the article is a stub and the only career information noted is his former teams which are noted in the infobox. HeyMid (contribs) 13:02, 9 September 2011 (UTC)

Replaceable fair use File:Stefan Liv memorial.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Stefan Liv memorial.jpg. I noticed the description page specifies that the media is being used under a claim of fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first non-free content criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information or which could be adequately covered with text alone. If you believe this media is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to the media description page and edit it to add {{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original replaceable fair use template.
  2. On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per our non-free content policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Fut.Perf. 08:34, 11 September 2011 (UTC)

Re: The problem with the File:Melodifestivalen.svg image

Ah yes, I see, I did not put the image in the 2012 Contest article, but I think removing '2011' from the logo would still work fine along with an extra 'Non-free media use rationale' on the image page. So I will do this now. :) -- [[ axg ◉ talk ]] 21:12, 17 September 2011 (UTC)

What is the point of showing playing positions of the scoring leaders? That information can easily be found by going to each player's wiki page. Looking at other hockey pages displaying the same kind of stats these things are very rarely shown in the stat tables. Your other changes to the page are highly appreciated but I personally don't get this one. Ho-ju-96 (talk) 11:56, 22 September 2011 (UTC)

Showing the player positions directly in the table does IMO make sense. I mean, it's more impressive for a defenceman to make, say, 12 points in five games rather than a forward, because the defencemen's primary job is to prevent the opponents from scoring. HeyMid (contribs) 12:42, 22 September 2011 (UTC)
While I agree with your point about defencemen scoring, I think it's just as simple to find this information by going to each player's wiki as listing it there. Over the course of an entire season there's likely to be a lot of changes among the top scorers and then the extra effort of listing positions in the stat table seems unnecessary to me. There's also the point of no other similar pages showing this information. So would you be alright with removing this information (or me removing it)? Ho-ju-96 (talk) 08:17, 23 September 2011 (UTC)
That's fine for me. I simply gave my thoughts to the matter, but I've no problem removing the "POS" column. Regards, HeyMid (contribs) 14:14, 23 September 2011 (UTC)
