Kenshin

Do you think that the article may require another image?(Tintor • contribs) 9:31, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

Ok, reworded. Do you think that length of the top is ok?(Tintor • contribs) 15:18, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

Ah, about of the design, Watsuki made Kenshin the opposite of Seijuro Hiko, not the real hitokiri.Tinto2 contribs 15:18, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

About "complained" you can replace it (no idea what word). About Them Anime Reviews it was italisised in the sasuke and sakura articles and passed GA, no idea if its neccesary, I also italisised Animeondvd. About the desings JadziaLover told he/she was a bit busy but soon will explain the details of the design.Tinto2 contribs 16:00, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

I changed that because that review was too long and I changed it for the most critical info. You can add the other info if you want.Tinto2 contribs 20:30, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

Yes, its better now. I noted that you edited another link to those yaminobu in background.Tintor2 contribs 20:44, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

I found info about a character from Buso Renkin that Watsuki comments he designed her with the face of Battosai. Where would that go? Reception or other media?Tintor2 contribs 12:24, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

Since Kenshin is a human and his appearance doesnt change in the series until the end it may not be neccesary.Tintor2 contribs 15:54, 13 February 2008 (UTC)

No idea, notojutsu is supposed to be opposite of battojutsu, if battojutsu capitalized maybe notojutsu should also be, (about shinsoku, yes it should).Tintor2 contribs 16:12, 13 February 2008 (UTC)

Ok.Tintor2 contribs 16:17, 13 February 2008 (UTC)

But should battojutsu be capitalized?.Tintor2 contribs 16:17, 13 February 2008 (UTC)

But the others yes?.Tintor2 contribs 16:23, 13 February 2008 (UTC)

I have capitalized all with the exception of battojutsu.Tintor2 contribs 16:33, 13 February 2008 (UTC)

About Rurouni Kenshin article, could you tell how should it be organized?.Tintor2 contribs 15:25, 14 February 2008 (UTC)

I have one describing the vacuum of the amaka and the 2nd hit at the same time. Im thinking in using that since its the most fictional and important technique of Kenshin. So? Ok?Tintor2 contribs 20:34, 14 February 2008 (UTC)

Well, the ones I was thinking were two that I combined. There is also a picture with a large number of Hitenmitsurugi techniques but no victims. The one of the amaka(long...) has a victim.Tintor2 contribs 20:53, 14 February 2008 (UTC)

Kenshin uses lots of hiten mitsurugi techniques. Amakakeru ryu no hirameki is the most notable of all of them and also the most fictional. So should I add a picture about it?.Tintor2 contribs 21:36, 14 February 2008 (UTC)

If you can reword it, do it.Tintor2 contribs 9:03, 15 February 2008 (UTC)

No idea, the GA nominations are normally slow? It was 10 days ago it was nominated. Well, if Jadzialover doesnt answer me Ill ask to another user about the images of the designs. Maybe that image of "Kenshin in his Battosai state" is not helping too much, since it looks only dark because it was at night and in that moment Saito said "is he battosai now? or he is just angry?". Well, see you.Tintor2 contribs 9:03, 15 February 2008 (UTC)

The point is that in the Battosai state there are no physical changes, he only becomes angrier enough to use all his strength resulting in the death of the opponent. Apart from that I found one image showing a better design of Kenshin in the OVAs. Ill upload it and show it to you decide.Tintor2 contribs 20:56, 16 February 2008 (UTC)

Ok here it is [1], if you think it should replace the other one I can cut it.Tintor2 contribs 21:02, 16 February 2008 (UTC)

Yes, in the OVAs. You decide, if you want I can cut it and reupload it.Tintor2 contribs 00:07, 17 February 2008 (UTC)

I can cut it to delete the back.Tintor2 contribs 00:16, 17 February 2008 (UTC)

I have found information in a tankobon saying that watsuki created kenshins moves in based to a swordman called matsubayabshi henyasai. There is no article about that, so should I edit a link? It would look red.Tintor2 contribs 00:39, 17 February 2008 (UTC)

The character.Tintor2 contribs 11:56, 17 February 2008 (UTC)

Well, not only Sojiro was so fast, Yukishiro Enishi could block the technique and later hit Kenshin before performing it. To be more directly Sojiro is the fastest character from the series. About the change, what do you suggest?.Tintor2 contribs 15:47, 21 February 2008 (UTC)

Sorry, I didnt pay attention so changed. I wont be here until night, so see you.Tintor2 contribs 16:01, 21 February 2008 (UTC)

Is that Kenshin encounters Enishi two times in the manga, the first time Enishi defeated the amakakeru ryu no hirameki by avoiding ther vacuum, but enishi received the kuzuryusen. In the 2nd fight Enishi could stop the kuzuryusen twice but the vacuum of the amakakeru ryu no hirameki was stronger that time. Shishio could also block the amakakeru ryu no hirameki but he was trapped by the vacuum (as you see in the image). A bit confusing what I have written, isnt it? Well maybe the one of Enishi shouldnt be mentioned but the one of sojiro yes. Ill add that later to the article.Tintor2 contribs 20:28, 21 February 2008 (UTC)

This is a doubt I have. When we say techniques in Himura Kenshin we have Battojutsu and Hiten Mitsurugi Ryu. The mitsurugi ryu is a kenjutsu style and battojutsu style. In my opinion battojutsu should be deleted from the top to avoid confusions. Do you agree?.Tintor2 contribs 22:05, 21 February 2008 (UTC)

Apart from that there was only one ref that I arranged.Tintor2 contribs 13:45, 22 February 2008 (UTC)

No objection.Tintor2 contribs 15:28, 22 February 2008 (UTC)

Please tell me this is a joke. The link of Juang Mayal goes to Akira Toriyama and there are no sources.Tintor2 contribs 21:55, 22 February 2008 (UTC)

I arranged a bit the end of the abilities section. If you see a mistake, feel free to correct it.Tintor2 contribs 11:42, 23 February 2008 (UTC)

I did that to explain the reason why Kenshin is not able to use his style in the end of the manga. I never thought in taking the article to FA but I read that note of sephiroth.Tintor2 contribs 15:40, 23 February 2008 (UTC)

Do you think some information of the article is cruft or unneccesary in-universe info?.Tintor2 contribs 15:50, 23 February 2008 (UTC)

About that I will see if I can do something because my english is not very good.Tintor2 contribs 11:07, 25 February 2008 (UTC)

I arranged a bit the anime and manga websites reviews depending what they mention. Please check.Tintor2 contribs 00:07, 26 February 2008 (UTC)

Ok, I arranged a bit more. Please tell me if it was better before or if you have a different idea.Tintor2 contribs 00:43, 26 February 2008 (UTC)

That of Seijuro being more suitable to use the hiren misrurugu ryu is explained in the same chapter that is explained kenshin will not able to perform that technique in a few years. It is never explained what does Kenshin has, but he comments that he feels his body strange after every battle. Any idea?.Tintor2 contribs 09:08, 26 February 2008 (UTC)

I dont understand very much. Could you edit that sentence in the article?.Tintor2 contribs 13:33, 26 February 2008 (UTC)

I dont know users who know about the series except for User:DarkAngel007 that he appears more or less in the morning. However, I think that sentence would something like: explanation of suitable body of the style- Body of Kenshin unsuitable-Kenshin not being able to use it.Tintor2 contribs 13:54, 26 February 2008 (UTC)

I rephrased it a bit. Maybe "Kenshin's slender build" does not fit very good.Tintor2 contribs 14:12, 26 February 2008 (UTC)

He becomes unable to use it forever. About Ryukansen, all variations are almost the same but in different positions. Maybe "The Ryūkansen (龍巻閃, Ryūkansen? lit. "Dragon Spiral Strike") and its respective variations are moves which takes advantage of the centripetal force used to accelerate the draw of the blade while simultaneously avoiding the adversary's assault, shifting directly into a counterattack."Tintor2 contribs 14:27, 26 February 2008 (UTC)

Added.Tintor2 contribs 15:16, 26 February 2008 (UTC)

No probelm with that of ryukansen. But more user boxes would cool. Where can I get them?Tintor2 contribs 20:38, 27 February 2008 (UTC)

I was thinking in something saying like this user is not a navite englsih speaker.Tintor2 contribs 14:16, 28 February 2008 (UTC)

Thanks dude.Tintor2 contribs 17:48, 28 February 2008 (UTC)

Ah, thanks again. About this you are also welcome if you want to.Tintor2 contribs 00:32, 29 February 2008 (UTC)

Hi, sessho... I saw an orphaned an unknown list List of Rurouni Kenshin chapters. However, there is no need to stop since the article is not in good style.Tintor2 contribs 20:59, 29 February 2008 (UTC)

I moved the draft to the article [2].Tintor2 contribs 21:11, 29 February 2008 (UTC)

No`problem. I uploaded the cover of the first volume and it is in the article now. The thumb is very small, could you check the size? Also, in the volumes there are explanations saying that not all covers are new (that they were used in previous chapters) as watsuki was so busy he couldnt draw anything new. Is it worth to mention it?Tintor2 contribs 22:25, 29 February 2008 (UTC)

Naruto links reverted

Hi, and thanks for telling me those links i made were reverted. I am mentally smacking myself in the face for not noticing that the same links were already in the article about a paragraph before where i put them. (**sitting at computer feeling stupid) Anyway, thanks for telling me and undoing my mistake. Ichliebezuko (talk) 19:29, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

Re:Link

No problem. I'm afraid I'm not entirely sure what you're referring to with the dates. Axem Titanium (talk) 03:36, 11 February 2008 (UTC)

I see it. I don't see any reason why it shouldn't be wikilinked. Go ahead. Axem Titanium (talk) 04:00, 11 February 2008 (UTC)

His flying ability is not really central to his character in the way that it is for, say, Superman. Neither is his teleportation skill, for that matter. Use your discretion but know that I may forget this discussion in the future and remove those categories again. Axem Titanium (talk) 05:07, 11 February 2008 (UTC)

I'll take a look and see what needs doing. Axem Titanium (talk) 23:59, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

I explained my reasoning on the talk page. I'm still not sure about the teleport/flying thing so I left it alone for now. Do you recall any notable instances of his use of these abilities? Axem Titanium (talk) 02:25, 13 February 2008 (UTC)

Someone else removed teleport. I guess it's a moot point now (I'm not familiar with the TV series). Axem Titanium (talk) 03:01, 13 February 2008 (UTC)

I don't know. I find it helpful to think of it in terms of usefulness. Would a person searching the category "fictional characters who can fly" be confused if Ganon were missing? I would say no since he's not entirely notable for flying. Same with martial artist (although the SSB series is technically non-canon, as well). Axem Titanium (talk) 03:16, 13 February 2008 (UTC)

I guess the categorization issue is fine now. Hopefully, centenarians will stay off and demons is still a bit iffy. Other than that, I personally am fine with things as they are. Axem Titanium (talk) 20:55, 13 February 2008 (UTC)

Re: Kazu

The messages are there; he'll respond when he has time, I'm sure. He's probably just busy with real-life stuff. I know I am. x_x --Masamage ♫ 16:15, 13 February 2008 (UTC)

Aww, a post about me; I'm flattered lol. No, seriously, I've been busy so I was doing only minor edits during breaks. Rearding the category... Yes, I should remove it from any articles that don't follow the criteria. I'm gonna do it tomorrow if I have some time, otherwise it'll have to wait till weekend. Kazu-kun (talk) 04:40, 14 February 2008 (UTC)

Re:User name

Thank you very much, Sesshomaru boy (I suppose you watch Yu-Gi-Oh). Anyway, I need to change my name on the other WikiProjects I am a part of, thanks for reminding me. Cheers. Maximillion Pegasus (talk) 13:37, 14 February 2008 (UTC)

Did you used to, or still do, contribute to other wikis? Maximillion Pegasus (talk) 20:21, 14 February 2008 (UTC)

How did you know my old user name is registered on Simple English? Just curious, thats all. I am going to do a rename when I get the chance. Do you mean the wikia Dragon Ball wiki? Maximillion Pegasus (talk) 20:30, 14 February 2008 (UTC)

Oh, ok. For my name sake see, Maximillion Pegasus, if you did not get my comment I made, Maximillion has a tendency to put "boy" after peoples names. Would you know anyone interested in a cards wiki? Maximillion Pegasus (talk) 20:44, 14 February 2008 (UTC)

Well, I have obsessed over series in the past, but like you said, I was a kid then. Now, the only thing I obsess with is Wikipedia, Commons, and Wikia, maybe I should get a life. Anyway, the only reason I chose this name besides liking it, is, Maximillion is one of my favorite anime characters. I don't see the point in obsessing over it either. Maximillion Pegasus (talk) 20:58, 14 February 2008 (UTC)

Creatures of Terabithia

Thanks for all your help before, I have a favor to ask, can you look at my article Creatures of Terabithia and see if it meets wikipedia standards, thanks Wikizeta (talk) 20:48, 14 February 2008 (UTC)

Ok, thanks, i'm doing well, how have you been? Wikizeta (talk) 20:59, 14 February 2008 (UTC)

That's good to hear Wikizeta (talk) 21:13, 14 February 2008 (UTC)

WT:RFR

Hiya. Look, I'm sorry; I appreciate you mean well but I've undone your edit again [3]. Please bear in mind that in a lot of countries outside the US dates are expressed a different way. e.g. 10/12/08 in the US may be the 12th of October but in the UK it would be the 10th of December. It's a minor matter after all, but better IMHO to avoid any ambiguity and to use the full Monthh / Date here. Pedro :  Chat  22:06, 14 February 2008 (UTC)

Re: popups

Re your message: I think it does, though I've never used that feature. Try setting the popupFixDabs option to true. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 07:03, 15 February 2008 (UTC)

Re your message: It appears that you are using the Gadgets version of popups. Add

popupFixDabs=true;

to your monobook.js. Then reload the monobook.js to see if that takes and the available options change. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 07:08, 15 February 2008 (UTC)

Re your message: You can follow the directions on the top of the popups page to install it by either adding it to your monobook.js or checking the Navigation Popups under My Preferences/Gadgets. Either way, you need to add in the bit that I listed above to your monobook.js. So, for example, if you went with a complete monobook.js install, you would have in there:

importScript('User:AzaToth/twinkle.js');
importScript('User:Lupin/popups.js');
popupFixDabs=true;

If you went with the Gadgets method, you would drop the second line. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 07:24, 15 February 2008 (UTC)

Re your messages: If you are at your monobook.js page (not editing, just viewing), then the reload should work. If you reload and then visit a page, popups should be there for any link if you hover over it. I haven't used Twinkle, so I can't help you there. You only need the three lines in your monobook.js that I listed above. The first line is Twinkle, the second is popups, and the third is the extra options for popups. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 07:42, 15 February 2008 (UTC)

Re your messages: Okay, I figured it out. About your first message, you don't need Java to run popups or Twinkle, just JavaScript enabled on your web browser, which most users have enabled. I checked the disambiguate fixing function with popups and I understand how they work now. What I listed above and what you currently have in your monobook.js should work. What happens is that if you float your cursor over this link Syndication, which is a disambiguation page, you will see a bunch of green links at the bottom of the popup menu. You select one of those and it will automatically make the link. However, if you already have a piped link like syndication, you can not edit the piped link through popups. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 19:23, 15 February 2008 (UTC)

Re your message: popups works with IE7. To clear your browser cache under IE7, you select Tools/Internet Options/General/Browsing history Delete.../Delete files.... That will delete your browser cache. You only need to do this when you change your monobook.js file, you don't need to keep doing it to use popups or Twinkle. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 20:24, 15 February 2008 (UTC)

Re your messages: I'm glad you got it to work. The popupFixRedirs option allows you to fix redirects as explained at Wikipedia:Tools/Navigation popups/About fixing redirects. The other tool finds redirects, but you can also use the "What links here" link in the toolbox, though that could be a more manually intensive task. I'm not really sure what you are asking about with redirects. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 06:40, 16 February 2008 (UTC)

Re your message: What you listed is correct. When you load the scripts, it makes default settings. So you want to change it after the defaults are set, which is why the options are set after loading the scripts. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 04:23, 17 February 2008 (UTC)

Re your message: Did you flush your browser cache per the instructions above? You need to flush the browser cache every time you make changes to your monobook.js. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 08:13, 17 February 2008 (UTC)

Naruto genres

Honestly wouldn't know. Not a good judge for that. Anyway, there doesn't always have to be the maximum. — Trust not the Penguin (T | C) 07:42, 15 February 2008 (UTC)

Oh, I figured you already went with it from your edit summary. Adventure is fine, yeah. — Trust not the Penguin (T | C) 05:14, 18 February 2008 (UTC)

Walter Mellon Head

I think that User:Walter Mellon Head is taking that first warning on his talk page too seriously. He stopped reverting until it had officially been declared a new day and then he kept on with his vandalism. Personally, I think it is pretty humorous. Just thought I'd let you know. Currently, I reported him at WP:AN/3RR. Maybe he'll stop before the GA nom. Thanks for the smiles. Parent5446^{(Murder me for my actions)} 01:41, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

I just wanted to let you know about that user. Your request on WP:AIV might be rejected (trust me, I tried earlier today and they told me to report him on WP:AN/3RR which I did). However, that is not my concern. I am a little worried about the full protection. Think about it. The major editors of the article are not admins. That means right when WP:ACID is going to attract new editors and right when we might need to make quick fixes during the WP:GA nomination, only admins will be able to edit the article. I suggest you change it to semi-protection because we will still be able to edit the article but that Walter guy cannot (since his account is not autoconfirmed). Parent5446^{(Murder me for my actions)} 03:06, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

I suggest we keep it at semi-protection or even take the request off. The user has been blocked indefinitely for being a vandalism-only account. In addition, since he is blocked, a full protection request is never going to go through. Parent5446^{(Murder me for my actions)} 03:14, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

Yeah, don't worry, I'll never edit another editor's comments again. Sorry about that. The good news is that if that user makes another account and starts vandalizing we will not be violating 3RR so we can revert him as many times as we want. (Thank god for the sockpupper exception) Parent5446^{(Murder me for my actions)} 15:12, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

You helped choose Aang as this week's WP:ACID winner

Re: Snapper2. Ideas?

It seems that Snapper2 is focused on making changes that he sees fit without regard to discussing beforehand. When he does, it's only to make his claim with nothing to back it up, and by then he has already tried to change the information. I sent him a request to talk things through and show proof before changing, but if he doesn't is there a way to prevent him from making these changes so quickly? I don't always have the time needed to monitor the Naruto Uzumaki page, and after two weeks away he nearly nuked the Abilities section. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. DestradoZero 02:37, 20 February 2008 (UTC)

Re: 2pac

Yeah, sorry. I must have missed your first comment on my talk page. I see nothing wrong with your edit. Thanks. --Zimbabweed (talk) 04:58, 20 February 2008 (UTC)

RE: Agent007ravi‎

Yes I meant that we shouldn't be this harsh on the newbies. If someone makes a mistake, we can always correct it rather than just removing the name. What do you think?  UzEE  04:59, 20 February 2008 (UTC)

Yeah. But often people don't refuse to follow it. They somehow just overlook it. So that's why we should guide them instead. How does it look now?  UzEE  05:07, 20 February 2008 (UTC)

I agree that is the easy way but why not try it this way for a while. If we still get too many violations, we can always revert back.  UzEE  05:20, 20 February 2008 (UTC)

Apology

I'm just here to apologize for blowing up at you last week. And thanks for the warning about the edit summaries. --VorangorTheDemon (talk) 11:44, 20 February 2008 (UTC)

The reason why I changed the opening paragraph in Goku's article because the opening paragraph is extremely jumbled, and actually doesn't tell a whole lot about his character. The Opening paragraph of the articles is supposed to be a brief sum-up of the article (and/or character in this case). I was simply changing it so it wasn't so jumbled with general information about Dragon Ball, without focus on Goku's character. --VorangorTheDemon (talk) 11:53, 20 February 2008 (UTC)

Re: Your userpage ...

Ok, thanks. I think he was angry because he uploaded some unneccesary images to Son Gohan (he uploaded the same in Son Goten) and I deleted them.--Tintor2 (talk) 10:02, 21 February 2008 (UTC)

article words in dab descriptions

Hi, Sesshomaru. It's only on dab entries that are people, and normally just on {{hndis}} dab pages, that you should remove the articles "a", "an", or "the" at the start of a dab entry description. These were probably okay. -- JHunterJ (talk) 12:16, 21 February 2008 (UTC)

Dragon Ball Z: Burst Limit

Hey there. I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but it seems that Dragon Ball Z: Burst Limit has been the subject of vandalism there. Ryu Ematsu has most recently placed a comment at Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Anime_and_manga/Dragon_Ball#Burst_Limit if you are interested. What should I do about this article? I would appreciate it if you respond to this. Thanks, Greg Jones II 18:48, 21 February 2008 (UTC)

Actually

It's a shared IP. I know I was at risk in revealing my true location. But people hardly ever watch revision histories of talk pages if I'm right. If you look at the IP's talk page you'll see it's a shared IP. I hardly ever log in at school because I'm not really using Wikipedia like I use it at home.

Dragon Ball RJ

Was the page deleted before? Can't find the link in the deletion log. The speedy tag should be re-placed on the article if so. Lord Sesshomaru (talk • edits) 22:54, 22 February 2008 (UTC)

• Yes, have a look at this revision: [4]. It was deleted a few times before, but at this time it looks more or less ok. I think it passes the guidelines for now :) Excirial ^{(Talk,Contribs)} 23:02, 22 February 2008 (UTC)

I've been keeping tabs on Agent007ravi (talk · contribs) and am doing an investigation on the activities of MangaRJ (talk · contribs) and Laxfox620 (talk · contribs), who appear to be single purpose accounts. Do they strike you as puppets by any chance? The article in question has images with licenses that say the artwork is self-made. What to do? Lord Sesshomaru (talk • edits) 23:12, 22 February 2008 (UTC)

• I think that User:MangaRJ is a single purpose account for sure. The account has begon on the article we have been discussing seconds after its creation, which is one of the ways to recognize a sock puppet. As for User:Laxfox620: i think he is a semi vandal account who just wandered in this article. And last but not least: Agent007ravi. I cant really say anything about him. Its an established editor who has a user box stating he is part of the DBZ project, so he might just as well have wandered in to improve the article. Maybe an admin can run an IP check on the sock and his account, but i don't know if there is enough proof to do so.

As for the images: I think the only way to deal with them is tagging them for deletion. they are indeed copyrighted, but the problem is that its edited copyrighted material, which means that they can't fall under fair use. I think ill just tag them all, will be done in a minute :) Excirial ^{(Talk,Contribs)} 23:20, 22 February 2008 (UTC)

• A little update on this one: I went trough the article and it ended up being a whole lot of nonsense. I simply filed it as a nonsense page with CSD, and it has been removed now. Oh, and the images are also gone. Guess all is clear now :). Excirial ^{(Talk,Contribs)} 09:35, 23 February 2008 (UTC)

Re:Kenshin Himura and WP:WIAFA

No, I don't think the article is ready, as it suffers from several problems with 1a and 1b. 1a is very, very strict for FAs, and copy-editing concerns are the easiest way featured article nominations fail. I've had and seen nominations fail due to single oppose based on copy-editing concerns. You can read User:Tony1/How to satisfy Criterion 1a to cleanup yourself, but remember that the prose needs to be "engaging, even brilliant, and of professional standard." Unless you're a pretty good writer, doing it yourself is pretty difficult. As such, you either need to know a good copy-editor or solicit one from WP:LOCE. Making a request for a copy-edit isn't practical because it's mired in a giant backlog, so you have to contact the LOCE members directly, but many of them are busy on their own projects or tackling the backlog at the requests page. Even then, copy-editing right now is not practical because the article still has problems with 1b. The model you followed at Sasuke Uchiha does not work for FAC. It's fine for GA, which was all that was intended for it. Several sections still suffer from being too heavily in-universe, containing excessive plot details, and not flowing very well (the abilities section in particular). Your reception gives the impression of being very shallow. At FAC, reviewers look for critical reception on his personality, his part in the storyline, etc. Practically all your statements are mere observations, not critical review, or rather they don't express a strong opinion concerning the character. That he looks "mopey" or that he was a "smartass" give an impression of being trivial, not critical. Again, it's alright for GA, but FAC sees right through it. You have a big flow problem while reading the reception also. As such, the article isn't comprehensive in this regard. Master Chief (Halo), Cortana, and Link (The Legend of Zelda) are character FA examples you can peek at (format is basically the same). Cheers, Sephiroth BCR ^(Converse) 04:51, 23 February 2008 (UTC)

Naruto GA

You know, you can remove Naruto from the GA nominations on your own. To quote another editor:

'...it can be self-withdrawn with very little fuss, just note it in the edit summary "self-withdrawing Naruto per discussion on Talk:Naruto" or something - it's not the usually done thing, but it shouldn't cause a ruckus.' —Preceding unsigned comment added by Artist Formerly Known As Whocares (talk • contribs)

fixing redirects

Hi, you asked me on my talk page about a monobook fix to do with redirects - unfortunately I'm not sure what you mean! The best place to ask would be at the Village Pump - Technical, which is where anything I have in my monobook came from. DuncanHill (talk) 14:37, 24 February 2008 (UTC)

RE: Nonsense to Yamucha

I agree. He should be reported. I also noted that those lines seemed familiar.  UzEE  09:11, 25 February 2008 (UTC)

He did that again and I have reported him. Hope that cools him off for a while.  UzEE  09:23, 25 February 2008 (UTC)

List of Blood+ characters

Hi. You tagged this one for too many non-free images. Please see the lengthy discussion on the talk page (we've gotten it down from the former 30+ it did have), and offer any additional suggestions on how we can further reduce it. The article now has six images for four groups and twenty-seven major characters. We've tried to find group images where ever possible so as not to have individual character images.

Astro Boy

Ahh, I see. I didn't know they made a remake of the AstroBoy. Adult Swim did play Astro Boy but the older version. I'll revert the edit. My bad. Thanks for clarifying that for me. Fox816 (talk) 01:49, 27 February 2008 (UTC)

My eyes completely missed the (2003) tag on the article, would have saved the confusion. I wonder what the CG movie will be like. It should be good I hope. A lot of Hollywood studios are picking up anime series to adapt which is nice though I'm not anticipating the Dragon Ball live action. Fox816 (talk) 02:01, 27 February 2008 (UTC)

I haven't seen the Sailor Moon (ENG) anime since I was little. In terms of information and plot editting I'm limited to zero. Earlier, another editor and myself took out the Oracle refs and I managed to nix a few of the SailorMusic ones. Basically any help cleaning out the rest would be great. Fox816 (talk) 02:17, 27 February 2008 (UTC)

They did play it on Toonami but it also ran on tv in the mid-to-late 1990s. I can't remember which station played it but I used to watch it before school. To be honest, I liked all the english names better. For the most part, I'm not sure. Just the refs seem to be the problem now and finding replacements. It's almost certain they'll lose GA status which is a shame. Fox816 (talk) 02:26, 27 February 2008 (UTC)

sorry

Excuse me for being replacing the photo of Article inoue orihime xD Not knew ^ ^ sorry for the english *google translation* —Preceding unsigned comment added by Igorotik (talk • contribs) 05:33, 27 February 2008 (UTC)

My DBZ edits

The edits I made are not considered vandalism under my standards. I'm simply changing it to where it doesn't sound dumb or simplistic. (Son Goku, as seen in the Dragon Ball Series sounds much better than Son Goku by Akira Toriyama. It sounds like the guy is a book!) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Armageddon1994 (talk • contribs) 23:54, 27 February 2008 (UTC)

I have no idea who the user is, but from the looks of it this he may have been editing as a anon prior to creating the account. - Caribbean~H.Q. 05:39, 29 February 2008 (UTC)

Its to early to tell, although there is certainly some simmilarity between the posts to your talk page. - Caribbean~H.Q. 05:57, 29 February 2008 (UTC)

From what I see in their contributions neither of the accounts has been disruptive, so I can't really block the user for just having more than one account. - Caribbean~H.Q. 13:47, 29 February 2008 (UTC)

71.61.6.190

Hmm, if the IP has been doing this repeatedly, vandalizing, conforming just before being blocked, and then later vandalizing again, I would bring it up at WP:ANI. I imagine that would be sufficient behavior to warrant a block. Lots of admins check out ANI, so if I was you, I'd gather some diffs and take it there. Useight (talk) 05:30, 28 February 2008 (UTC)

I have given him a level 4 vandalism warning, an only warning. Useight (talk) 06:11, 28 February 2008 (UTC)

Shooting/Stabbing victims

The problem is the name. JFK was a shooting victim, and Caesar was a stabbing victim. You can't just change the definition of the category by fiat and expect people to follow it. I could edit Category:Blue objects to say that it means only blue objects that are smaller than a breadbox, and then go around complaining about people who assign the category to larger objects, but I'd be rightly denounced as a nudnik. I see that there's a proposal to rename Shooting victims to Shooting survivors; once that goes through people will use it as you intend. If you want the stabbing category to include only survivors, propose to change it. Or else just create new subcategory for shooting survivors and deaths by shooting, and start recategorising all articles that are there. -- Zsero (talk) 04:01, 29 February 2008 (UTC)

You can copy the wording I put in Shooting victims, changing "shooting" to "stabbing", but first you need a category to put the deaths by stabbing in. -- Zsero (talk) 04:09, 29 February 2008 (UTC)

If I were doing this I'd suggest Survivors of shooting/stabbing, and Deaths by shooting/stabbing. But I'm not sure why you're so insistent on separating the deaths from the survivors in the first place. They're equally victims. -- Zsero (talk) 04:15, 29 February 2008 (UTC)

How about this: abandon the rename of Shooting victims to Shooting survivors. Instead, create a subcategory Survivors of shooting, and start moving people from the top category into the subcategory. The advantage is that those whom you didn't get to are still properly categorised - they are victims. In the end, there should be nothing in the Shooting victims category but the two subcats.

Next, do the same for stabbing - create two subcats, Survivors of stabbing, and Deaths by stabbing, and start moving people into one or the other depending on whether they died. -- Zsero (talk) 04:29, 29 February 2008 (UTC)

It is a lot of work, but it doesn't have to be done all at once. And you'll have to do it anyway, won't you? Or is there a bot that does moves automatically? -- Zsero (talk) 05:04, 29 February 2008 (UTC)

I've made a start. -- Zsero (talk) 06:24, 29 February 2008 (UTC)

Both "survivors" categories say "seriously injured". I don't think "death" needs to be qualified. Dead is dead. And the "victims" category includes both. Not sure what to do with cases like James Earl Ray, though; if his death was ultimately the result of his stabbing, he's not a survivor. The stabber would be charged with murder, I'd imagine. Same with that German commie student. -- Zsero (talk) 06:57, 29 February 2008 (UTC)

The "victim" categories don't need descriptions - they have two subcategories, one for the ones who lived and the other for the ones who died. The only description required is for the "survivors" categories to make it clear that a nick or a flesh wound doesn't make one a survivor. -- Zsero (talk) 07:17, 29 February 2008 (UTC)

Redirects

All I can say is, thank god for tabs. Makes the redundant editing really quick. — Trust not the Penguin (T | C) 05:46, 29 February 2008 (UTC)
