thread_title:  uncited information 

message: Until such a time as there are a significant amount of Teen-Grid centric entries, any information regarding "well known" Residents, whether they be from the Main or Teen Grid, should go in this article.
If the article grows to a size that requires some pruning along the guidelines of WP:SIZE, I'm proposing now that a similar list be created for the Teen Grid Residents over on Resident (Teen Second Life)

thread_title:  Teen Grid Residents 

message: I was talking to someone about the list article, and it seems that they though that the lists should be alphabetically ordered by surname.
Thoughts ?
# Should the list be re-ordered by surname ?
# Should only the 2 lists with a primary focus on natural persons (as opposed to virtual persons) be re-ordered by surname ?

message: What're people thoughts on breaking out the 3 lists into two or three separate articles ?

message: *I am seeing a ton of modification of this article for no rational reason except to put in false information, and so I have added the semi-protection vandalism tag. Sorry if this restricts anyone trying to give relevant information, but this article keeps getting trashed. --Texas Patriot - Frank 08:13, 18 May 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Vandalism 

message: It seems that the opinion of the Wikipedia Community with regards to "Notable Residents" is that it's rather dubious and prone to spam.
In order to encourage a more focussed peer review process, I have copied the section on Residents who achieved fame or notoriety through Second Life to the SL Wiki, the argument being that we (the Residents) are in a better position to gauge whether or not a Resident is "famous" or "notorious" for their Second Life activities.
Since account creation and anonymous editing of the SL Wiki is restricted, contributions to Notable Residents and the talk page can be considered as verified as being made by the Resident whose name is listed in the edit history (whereas linking a wikipedia account with a Second Life accounts is generally unauthenticated and not reliable).

thread_title:  Focussed Peer Review 

message: I think this Page (if any of the content is conisdered Encyclopedic?), should be moved to a more appropriate name, such as "Second Life Culture". It seems to be a bit of a fancruft definition meant purely for self definition of the standing of people within the world at the current, and with all the lists and spiel ripped out it could be expanded to be more about the world, which would also help reduce the size of the primary article. - Jimmi Hugh (talk) 20:45, 18 September 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Well considering the "activities" section, subculture subsection and essay on internal politics, I'm going to move the page, but I think it's probably one for an AfD, perhaps a little too much unsourced fancruft. - Jimmi Hugh (talk) 19:34, 4 November 2008 (UTC)

message: This section should be rewritten. Ginsu Linden, as well as most companies, left Second Life. Gmacar (talk) 13:59, 23 March 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: That shows how out-dated this article is. That question was asked in March, 2011. Should we divide the section into former and presents influences?--Canoe1967 (talk) 13:29, 11 February 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: I think that is the main problem with 2nd life articles. All the sources are inworld and not reported in reliable sources for Wikipedia. Residents just add line after line of unsourced material. You could email the second life inworld newspapers and see if they can help. I think they may be reliable enough for Wikipedia's 2nd life articles about inworld material.--Canoe1967 (talk) 14:27, 11 February 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  External influences 

message: Cyberbot II has detected that page contains external links that have either been globally or locally blacklisted.
Links tend to be blacklisted because they have a history of being spammed, or are highly innappropriate for Wikipedia.
This, however, doesn't necessarily mean it's spam, or not a good link.
If the link is a good link, you may wish to request whitelisting by going to the request page for whitelisting.
If you feel the link being caught by the blacklist is a false positive, or no longer needed on the blacklist, you may request the regex be removed or altered at the blacklist request page.
If the link is blacklisted globally and you feel the above applies you may request to whitelist it using the before mentioned request page, or request it's removal, or alteration, at the request page on meta.
When requesting whitelisting, be sure to supply the link to be whitelisted and wrap the link in nowiki tags.
The whitelisting process can take its time so once a request has been filled out, you may set the invisible parameter on the tag to true.
Please be aware that the bot will replace removed tags, and will remove misplaced tags regularly.
Below is a list of links that were found on the main page:
*http://del.icio.us/search/?all=secondlife+blog
*:Triggered by \bicio\.us\b on the global blacklist
If you would like me to provide more information on the talk page, contact User:Cyberpower678 and ask him to program me with more info.
