Adventure Express ride time
Why don't you look at the Kings Island website and notice that the 2:20 time for Adventure Express is INCORRECT on here. That's why I changed it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.64.202.74 (talk) 03:05, 28 February 2016 (UTC)
- @71.64.202.74: First of all, thank you for the explanation. For future reference, it would be helpful for you to state the reason in the edit summary, so others can see immediately why you made the change. Both times you left this blank. As for park information, it is often inaccurate and sometimes even inconsistent. Per WP:PRIMARY, Misplaced Pages prefers to rely on 3rd-party sources, called secondary sources. Primary sources such as the park's website are acceptable, but when they conflict with secondary sources, we go with the latter. Primary ones can sometimes be promotional and use different standards of measurement for ride times, height, and other specs than the rest of the industry. Here, RCDB.com clearly states 2:20 (link). If you believe this needs additional discussion, then begin a new one at the article's talk page. Thank you. --GoneIn60 (talk) 13:14, 28 February 2016 (UTC)
Adventure Express Station/Dedication Photos
I should have those photos for Adventure Express by tomorrow or Monday, and I'll be sure to send them from this exact talk section for you to use and post them in!
Though I do want to know if you want the Station to be a Panorama or just a long-view? I also might NOT have the Station by Tomorrow or Monday. Oblivioux (talk) 15:33, 9 April 2016 (UTC)
Magic Mountain Rollback?
Do you have rollback privileges? There were several unsourced edits done to the Six Flags Magic Mountain page by RocketSledder77. It would be great if you can just roll the page back to the last known good edit. Thanks —JlACEer (talk) 15:25, 11 April 2016 (UTC)
- @JlACEer: I don't have rollback rights, but I use Twinkle to accomplish the same thing. I went ahead and reverted those edits. One thing I'm curious about, however, is that the article suggests a change was made to Superman: Escape from Krypton to increase its speed from 100 mph to 104 mph. Do we know if that has been confirmed? RCDB still has it listed at 100. --GoneIn60 (talk) 19:54, 11 April 2016 (UTC)
- Thanks, I see he is at it again from an anonymous IP. All sources I have seen indicate the coaster's speed is 100 mph. The park has not made any claims that it is now going faster. You know that if the speed did increase, marketing would have been all over it. I don't know where these figures of 104 and 105 mph are coming from.—JlACEer (talk) 15:53, 12 April 2016 (UTC)
Cannibal
You misread the "Ultimaterollercoaster" it means there are 7 trains that can hold 12 passengers. As it states; trains-7 for a total of 12 passengers. DisneyFan22 (talk) 05:14, 24 April 2016 (UTC)
Independence Day
Firstly, thank you for your willingness to get involved in this dispute.
Secondly...wow, this is going nowhere fast... At this point I'm inclined to say we should contact the protecting admin and say we believe we have a consensus, and if the dissenting editor wants to escalate matters they can pursue other forms of dispute resolution. If you want me to say that on the Talk page I will, but (believe it or not) I'm trying to avoid saying anything that might inflame the situation any further. DonIago (talk) 20:37, 28 April 2016 (UTC)
- DonIago: I understand your hesitation to further inflame the situation, but it does look like from his second-to-last post that he's finally provided a few of his main concerns with your proposal. Perhaps you can find a way to address some of them. For example, there might be a more elegant way to reinsert the "suicide mission" detail as a first step to finding a compromise. Just a thought. --GoneIn60 (talk) 21:57, 28 April 2016 (UTC)
- If you'd like to propose something along those lines, I won't stop you and may even support you, but at this point I feel that he has no interest in anything I personally might have to say (he's ignored previous comments, including at least two requests to be proactive and offer a compromise), and that his interest in this matter may be less about improving the plot summary than making a WP:POINT. Were I to actively assume bad faith I might think he's trolling us and intends to drag this out as long as possible, given what I have perceived as misleading statements and personal attacks. I'm sorry, but until he offers an olive branch I don't believe my going out on a limb to work with him (no pun intended) will be productive. Best of luck to...well, all of us, really.

Lightning Rod
Heads up; getting individual reports that LR is in "technical rehearsals" now. Park guests are receiving tickets allowing them to ride, as long as the ride remains functional. Hardly anything encyclopedic, but we should be ready if editors start adding this. --McDoobAU93 18:04, 23 May 2016 (UTC)
- @McDoobAU93: Thanks for the heads up. By the way, I replied to the thread "Under refurbishment" and WP:TRAVELGUIDE about this sort of thing. The more I think about it, the more we should probably do away with "Testing" at the very least. It's a short-term status that doesn't need to be tracked on an encyclopedia IMHO. Someone could modify the infobox template to automatically change testing to "under construction" when someone enters it. --GoneIn60 (talk) 18:11, 23 May 2016 (UTC)
frivolous warnings on my IP
Don't appreciate being accused of being unconstructive or disruptive. Don't see any formal consensus against the contributions and refinements you keep reverting. The page could afford 2 be more concise and less verbose without all the point of view warring on both sides. Learn 2 have good faith and leave some of us alone 2 do our magic. This is a pattern of WP:OWNERSHIP.
I noticed you made reverts to contributions on Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. If you wish to modify this further, please start a new discussion there to help determine a formal consensus with a vote for the preservation of your exact structure of the page. The BOLD, revert, discuss cycle (BRD) is one method we use to reach agreement when there is a disagreement within the article but has not been used here.
Please refrain from making unconstructive reverts to Misplaced Pages, as you did at Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. Your reverts appear to be disruptive and have been or will be undone.
- If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, please discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek a formal consensus with them. Alternatively you can read Misplaced Pages's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant notice boards.
- If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, please seek assistance at Misplaced Pages's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.
Please ensure you are familiar with Misplaced Pages's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive. Continual disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.170.231.217 (talk) 18:41, 31 May 2016 (UTC)
ANI Thread
There is currently a discussion at Misplaced Pages:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you. I did not open the thread but saw you had not been notified. Please see THIS thread.--Cameron11598 20:33, 31 May 2016 (UTC)
