Deletionism and inclusionism are opposing philosophies held by editors of the online encyclopedia Wikipedia, regarding the criteria for including or deleting content.
Accounts are back open on twitter. Bray and Chas's profile pictures and backgrounds have been changed and they seem to be ready to chat. But is Toni on as well? Or is it a trick?
Hope you're pumped about the chance to win a Flip Cam. Here's how it'll work
- The contest will begin on September 8th and run till September 15th.
- To enter, use your Twitter account to tweet #Level26. A winner will be chosen, at random, each day and announced via Level 26s official Twitter account (www.twitter.com/Level_26) the next morning.
- Each of the 7 winners will get a Flip Cam HD Mino with exclusive footage that I will shoot that day. If you win a Flip Cam you will not be eligible to win again.
- Each tweet sent with #Level26 included will be considered an entry into that day's giveaway. You dont have to use the hashtag, but you must include Level26 in your tweet to be eligible.
- No purchase is necessary to enter (i.e. you do not need to purchase a copy of the book, or be an existing follower of @Level_26, in order to be eligible to win the daily prize. Of course I hope you will buy the book and follow our Twitter!). All you need is a Twitter account!
- If you win, go out and shoot your own videos and upload them to your Level26.com profile for the whole community to enjoy!
After a ridiculously extensive deletion battle at Wikipedia, mostly caused by a sole editor who must still be upset that Bree was fake, the page on Jackson Davis has been SAVED! And with a warning to those who want to take down the Resistance in the future: "Advise that it should be a lengthy time before a 4th AfD is even considered."
WIKIPWNED!
Both Miles Beckett and Greg Goodfried have noticed and thanked us for our tireless efforts. Congrats to all who took on this job!
From this experience, I became aware of a group of Wikipedians who fight against the evil deletionist tendencies of Wikipedia, known as the Article Rescue Squadron. It's worth checking out if you feel like getting involved on Wikipedia. Especially when it comes time to create and defend a wikipedia page for Pharma Guy! Proof. Of notability .... is EVERYWHERE!
ETA 12:51pm PDT: Well, the war is not over apparently. The same wiki editor has now nominated Mesh Flinders for deletion. Please weigh in on that if you choose. I personally believe it does meet the requirements for notability. Now, although Miles Beckett and Greg Goodfried's articles were deleted in March 2008, that was before a lot of other notable events, including the founding of EQAL, release of Lg15:The Resistance, Harper's Globe, Paula Deen, Umbrella, etc. I believe both should merit an article now, as would EQAL. I encourage anyone who wants to start those articles to do so--LGPedia would be a good start -- don't wholesale copy, just reword, paraphrase, etc., and dig up citations whenever you can to ward off the Deletionists. -- cheers, milo
"I want to see if we can get a few more early adopters signed up to the website in the final five days leading up to the release. This contest is very simple: get as many of your friends as you can to create a profile on Level26.com. To prove that they were referred by you, and for you to get credit, they need to post this phrase: “YOUR NAME made me a Level 26er” to the comments section below, or in the Level 26: Early Adopters Contest Forum.
The three 26ers who can get the most new people to register before Tuesday will get an autographed copy of the book, a Marc Ecko Level 26 t-shirt signed by me and a Swiss Army computer bag with the logo of my production company, Dare to Pass."
Jeromy: Yeah, you know, I think it’s really, really important to whatever audience you’re performing for, you listen to them and you figure out ways to hear what they think.
Some of the change is cultural. Users have been flocking to social networking sites like Facebook and Twitter, where they voluntarily share all kinds of details about their lives.
Like what has Andrea gotten herself into? Talk about some totally grody bohunks showing up just to bag the instructors man. Being with George doesn't look so bad anymore does it?

1) 18 and older rule. We are going to keep that rule as is. We really aren't comfortable with minors submitting and then having to work with their parent/guardian and verify that it is actually their parent or guardian. Sorry to those under 18, but this is the only we can do this.
2)OpAphid, like any other character, is fair game and can be expanded on based on the producer's desire.
3) Need to look into the IRS issue. My assumption is that the $5,000 will go to production costs for the producer and that it won't be taxable as income. I'm not a tax expert so I need to look into this.
4) Yes, we will take the video from the LG15 YouTube channel and embed it on the lonelygirl15 and Resistance channel pages. We will not be uploading the videos directly to either channel. Yes, we can send out myspace bulletins. Good suggestion. Please remind me if we happen to forget to do it, but that is a very good suggestion.
5) We will be acquiring the rights so the producer cannot submit the show places without our consent. But please note that we are doing TSIY2 to showcase talent so if the producer wants to submit their content to a festival we will be supportive. We will just want to make sure the submission is clear and doesn't confuse the LG15: TSIY2 submission with lonelygirl15.
6)I went to wikipedia and read through everything. that is great! I'm sure Jackson really appreciates it! Miles and I don't have pages, our names auto refer to lonelygirl15. Oh well, one can only dream :) Also, the grease monkey link fix is very cool. We know this community is talented, resourceful, and passionate and we hope TSIY2 is a step in the right direction showing you how much we appreciate it.
"The detective had told me, "You might not get a positive." What he asked me to do was if I got a negative, to pretend that I got a positive so that he could use that against her to get her to confess."
On episode nine of the Web.Files, the lovely and talented Kristyn Burtt interviews the hosts of Movies You May Have Missed. She also appears as a special guest host on the latest episode of MYMHM, where they review and discuss her movie choice, the 1945 class Mildred Pierce staring Joan Crawford.
Movies You May Have Missed covers movies which you may have missed, I guess everything you need to know is right there in the title. The two hosts are Juan Carlos Bagnell, the black-and-white classic movie snob, and Lee Buckley, the snarky normal one. MYMHM is not your typical movie review show, the analysis airs towards the erudite and at times they seem to over analyze things; however, if you enjoy movies beyond the latest Michael Bay explode-o-fest the show is definitely worth checking out.
"Clyde and I get to know Bonnie's new roommates, Sandy and Beatrice. Beatrice looks a lot like that chick from lonelygirl15. My dad shows up to use the exercise bike, which is just weird. Oh and we find out about Justin's little 'secret'...BUSTED!" -Paul.
Starring Kevin G. Schmidt, Samantha Droke, Wes Whitworth and Zack Bennett as Paul.
Co-starring Palmer Scott, Zach Cumer, Sean Michael Beyer as Mr. Ted with Special Guest Star Jessica Rose as Beatrice.
