User talk:HighwayCello/Archive/3

Re: Adminship
Wow, HighwayCello, I really appreciate your confidence! I'd love to eventually become an administrator, but I'm not sure how much now would be the right time. I became an active user in January, so my edit count is still a bit low, hovering a bit less than 2000ish, I believe. Also, though I've recently begun getting more accustomed to fighting vandalism, I'd like to give my vandal whacking stick some more practice before having the possibility of using adminship powers to do so. I really appreciate that you have the confidence to nominate me, though, that means a lot. Tell you what, I'll start reading up the Administrator's reading list, and see how things are in a couple months. Oh, and Jyllands-Posten Muhammad cartoons controversy does look like a good article, so no fear! It's just controversial... hence the title. :) Thanks again! -- Nataly a  18:57, 25 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Thanks! And I'll always be glad to help with stuff, admin or no. :) -- Nataly a  21:21, 25 April 2006 (UTC)

fair use
Which ones aren;t tagged? - and the fair use one is from the Smithsonian, and I was told that these are allowed? -no?--Irishpunktom\talk 21:04, 25 April 2006 (UTC)
 * [[Image:Humayun sitting.jpg]] is tagged with the Smithsonian fair use image, so too is [[Image:Timur with babur and Humayun.jpg]] - What do you do with that copyrighted image? It is released to be used whereever and whenever --Irishpunktom\talk 21:17, 25 April 2006 (UTC)
 * I just changed the copyrighted one to a commons image.. what were the other ones? --Irishpunktom\talk 22:01, 25 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Yeah, got rid of that request for a Diagram. i might do it later, if i can figure out how. As for the rational, I just copied from the help page - Is that acceptable?--Irishpunktom\talk 22:25, 25 April 2006 (UTC)

Pokemon
My favorite Pokemon is Meowth. Also, how do you feel about the pokemon anime recast?


 * Your favorite Pokemon is Meowth! My favorite are Minun and Plusle. Oh yeah, and do you like the Pokemon Advanced series? User:Po132 05:06, 4 May 2006

Thanks!
Thanks for the huge plane! I really appreciate it. I wish I could edit some more this week, but I have to really start studying for my three AP Exams next week. Though after May 5, I will be finished with a few classes and will be able to edit a lot more. PCEevee 01:50, 26 April 2006 (UTC)

Good article nomination rule changes
excuse me, but it was Anjoe who unilaterally changed the rules on the 22.4. Besides the current rules are inconsistent to the rules on Good_articles/Disputes. Raphael1 16:53, 26 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Well it has to do with you, if you regard my changes as vandalism and revert them, where I was actually reverting Anjoes changes 4 days ago. Raphael1 17:05, 26 April 2006 (UTC)

Thank you for worrying about me, but I'm fine. I withdrew because: 1.I wasn't going to win 2.I won't be having much time on the internet for awhile. I Lov  E Plankton 21:25, 26 April 2006 (UTC)

Skarmory (again)
Several things: - Skarmory is _never_ used in doubles. - Skarmbliss is obsolete, and Skarmbliss was never a combo used in doubles, they don't fight along side one another, but simply switch in and out, since Blissey counters Skarmory's weaknesses and Skarmory is strong against Blissey's counters. - By simply specifying that Spikes is a ground attack, explanation that it doesn't hit fliers is unecessary. - The first paragraph already gives a basic explanation of Spikes mechanics anyway. - Charziard was used in GSC, but in that generation Skarm didn't learn Spikes. - Ever since 2003, Charizard has seen very little competative play, hardly "the most powerful Pokémon," and virtually none in standard advance tournaments. - The syntax of the last sentence doesn't make much sense, it seems to contradict most of what's stated above.

Taking all that into account, it's probably best just to delete the second paragraph. If you're just trying to fill space, then dig up the part about counters, it's better to have unnecessarily redundant information than to have information that's factually inaccurate, and besides, Magneton deserves mention much more than Charizard.Artemis Kuiper 22:03, 26 April 2006 (UTC)

Recast
There not being fair to the actors are they?

Re: AHHHHHHHHHH
Hey Highway, first step, close your eyes, and take a deep breath.

*BREATH*

There. I'm sorry to hear that this situation has escalated into such unplesantness. But the most important thing is to not let it get to you! Take some time away from the issue - nothing long, just a few hours, half a day perhaps. Edit something you have fun with, hang out at the Coffee Lounge, or do something completely non-Wikipedia related altogether. When there is a buildup of anger from different parties, it is hard for anything to be accomplished.

You are not alone in your frustration with User:Raphael1. If you take a look at the section User_talk:Raphael1 and the two sections below on his talk page, others share your concern.

I have been reading over the disagreements relating to Jyllands-Posten Muhammad cartoons controversy, both the dispute of it as a good article and the larger issue of who should be allowed to delist article, and think I have a general grasp on things. I will do my best to try and diffuese the situation. -- Nataly a 03:13, 27 April 2006 (UTC)


 * Ahhhh you crack me up. I'm just hoping that I can accomplish something. :D Thanks for fixing the misplaced comment on my talk page, by the by. -- Nataly a  11:04, 28 April 2006 (UTC)


 * You can't link directly to your talk page from your signature? Really?  I thought a lot of people had that...
 * And what about the random acts of kindness barnstar? I didn't get it. -- Nataly a  11:35, 28 April 2006 (UTC)


 * Oh, haha, I get it now, I thought you meant "you" as in anyone, not me personally. Well, I can at least fix the barnstar; I was trying not to make the page too wide for smaller viewing sizes, but if should just go down to the next line if it's too small anyway.  I fixed that one :) -- Nataly a  15:54, 28 April 2006 (UTC)


 * It's still in progress, but I am hopeful :) -- Nataly a 16:06, 28 April 2006 (UTC)


 * There was one (the auspicious one on the wrong line) for answering Help Desk questions. I don't understand the masses of barnstars lately, but it's nice!  Yours is still the funniest I've gotten.  -- Nataly a  16:19, 28 April 2006 (UTC)

Re: Salac Berry
Salac berry currently functions on Netbattle as it should, and I fail to understand why this was brought to my attention, unless it was to make the point that Netbattle standards shouldn't be used for example. If this is the case, it's probably worth mentioning that Nintendo's Journey Across America series of doubles tournaments has gone to numerous locations, and Skarmory and Blissey have yet to see any play, because being walls, they thrive in singles.

Guess who voted for you! ME!!! Oh, and I wathched the Pokemon episode today. Did you like it?

Re:Trading Spaces
Thanks! I haven't thought of nothing specific, but I wanted the color not to be very dark, and I wanted something clean, on which I could build on later. Thanks again!  F e  tofs  Hello! 16:28, 29 April 2006 (UTC)

Articles you might like to edit, from SuggestBot
SuggestBot predicts that you will enjoy editing some of these articles. Have fun!

SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. Your contributions make Wikipedia better -- thanks for helping.

If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please tell me on SuggestBot's talk page. Thanks from ForteTuba, SuggestBot's caretaker.

P.S. You received these suggestions because your name was listed on the SuggestBot request page. If this was in error, sorry about the confusion. -- SuggestBot 16:38, 29 April 2006 (UTC)

Your Signature
Not to be fussy, but in your signature User talk: doesn't have a capatalised U. IMO, it's good practice to have a captalised U - and I'd appreciate it if you could fix that! Thank you, very much! Computerjoe 's talk 19:30, 30 April 2006 (UTC)

Leaving Wikipedia
Thanks for all the help you have given me in Wikipedia. Unfrotuanly I must leave permantly. There are some people on this encylopedia who just make joke edits and do not care about others. I can not take this any more so I must leave. I hope you understand. I will not be leaving untill you write back. I want to make sure you know. Please do not let anyone destroy my user page or talk page. I want people to see that page and say there goes Lord Dude. I am also withdrawing form the Pokemon project. I was glad to help Wikipedia better for the short time I was here. Thanks for everthing. P.S- Respond quickly.And CHEERS!


 * I dont have much of a choice. Thank you for all your help.  Also good luck in your next elections.  Please contunie to block vandals from my talk and user pages.  Thanks for everything.  Cheers.


 * I have to I am needed at another wiki. Have you ever heard of Baulbapedia?  I am there now.  Cheers!


 * I have decided that every month I will come back to Wikipedia to say Hi. Usually the first day of every month.  You will know by my IN icon.  Cheers! And Good Bye!!!

Thanks
This is last time I will speak today. Thanks for putting the speedy deletion on my project I cancelled. Cheers! aka: user:Lord Dude

Re: Second opinion
According to the WP:3RR, it does look like it. If you look at the reverts on 29 April, you can count them at 6:49, 11:23, 16:49 (a partial revert), and 17:22. That makes four within less than 24 hours, none of which were simple vandalism or anything else not counting under the rule. I have listed it at the 3RR Administrators' Noticeboard. -- Nataly a 17:04, 1 May 2006 (UTC)

Re: Fruity award
Last time I checked, "fruity" was still a derogatory term referencing homosexuality. That, combined with the less-than-friendly tone of the entire message don't make it very helpful, or appropriate. Just check to make sure that we're not missing out on an actual award (barnstar, etc.) that is called the "Fruity award". I doubt it, though. And there's no need to apologize, I'm always glad to help. :)-- Nataly a 23:13, 1 May 2006 (UTC)

Help
I have decied to come back to wikipedia but I need your help. The user:Zoe blocked me for repeated creation of a Pokemon article. Please talk to her. Also I need you to respond quickly. Thanks.

Another Problem
The user:The JPS has profanity on his user talk page. Please block him. Cheers.


 * You cannot block somebody for profanity, unless it is a personal attack, and unless they have been warned. Wikipedia is not censored for minors. WP:NOT. -- George Mon  e  y Talk   Contribs 01:19, 2 May 2006 (UTC)


 * The profanity was on his user talk page. He talked about nudity,  Cheers.

HI
I hope you like my decising to come back! Now lets work on that Pokemon Project!

Questions
I am I ready for Ezpersanza?

Just to let you know...
Just to let you know, if you see me in your userpage's history, I was reverting vandalism, not creating it. -- George Mon  e  y Talk   Contribs 07:25, 5 May 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for the intervention

 * Hate to gripe, since you've been so helpful and all &mdash; but! &mdash; it's 'just' not quite what I'd pictured. Is there a wikimarkup (think that's what this pseudo-HTML is called) guide you can direct me into to finding?
 * Haven't ever really played with HTML save in sprucing up email's I'm forwarding. Seem to need something that tells the box to stay firmly right. Is there another command besides the float that will do that?

Thanks for the assist! Best regards Fra nkB 23:23, 5 May 2006 (UTC)

Template:Nihongo
What damage are we taling about? -- Cat out 23:49, 6 May 2006 (UTC)
 * I think all articles in question should be modified to be more compatible with my change. Taking care of repetive usage is the point of templates. -- Cat out 23:51, 6 May 2006 (UTC)

It's late, I'll explain tomorrow. Basically all the articles used the template with "it is known as !"$%£ in Japanese" and you changed it to "it is known as Japanese:!"$%£ in Japanese". Yeah. H ig hway Rainbow Sneakers 23:51, 6 May 2006 (UTC)
 * I see. Still I think "it is known in japanese" is unnecesary. We can just use the format I came up with. -- Cat out 23:52, 6 May 2006 (UTC)


 * Your change does not work into good English. It is very difficult to make a defunct label work into context. And it isn't your template, all edits are equal. H ig hway Rainbow Sneakers 23:53, 6 May 2006 (UTC)


 * I am going to fucking sleep. I will deal with this tomorrow. Please leave it until I can sort this out. H ig hway Rainbow Sneakers 23:53, 6 May 2006 (UTC)
 * There is no one forcing you to respond immidiately. When I post on a talk page I expect people to respond at the most convinient time to them. Please be civil.
 * My change works fine with english. I have been using that syntax on a very large number of articles. Take a look at List of Oh My Goddess episodes and all linked episode pages (aside from ovas).
 * Any template I create or make significant change becomes "my template" in a conversation for easy referance. Saying "my" is much more conviniant than repetively typing out the templats name. This doesnt mean I own them of course.
 * -- Cat out 09:16, 7 May 2006 (UTC)


 * Fine, I'm sorry it was 1am and I was tired. Is there any way we can come to a compromise? Could we have to separate templates? It's just completely fecked up articles that use paragraphs. H ig hway Rainbow Sneakers 10:55, 7 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Well, we can rewrite every paragraph to make them better. I vote for that option. All I want is whats best for wikipedia. The syntax I propose has been the standard I observed.
 * We do not have to follow either suggestion. I just feel a sentence is redundent when its talking about the japanese meaning in a lenghty tone which could also be achieved with one word: (Japanese: )
 * -- Cat out 14:16, 7 May 2006 (UTC)
 * All that does is trap editors into having rewrite a sentence a particular way because of it. Now you can have Japanese shoved at the front of another template, but please at least leave one that still functions fine alone to at least preserve the thousands of articles it would damage. H ig hway Rainbow Sneakers 14:19, 7 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Ok, lets get one thing straight. I am not trying to disrupt wikipedia nor trapping anyone. Your hostile attitide is starting to bother me.
 * It is possible to rewrite the 'thousands of articles' with a bot in a few seconds so thats not an issue either. So there is no damage.
 * So what is the issue, that I dont understand.
 * -- Cat out 15:38, 7 May 2006 (UTC)
 * I also do not see a single article my modification "breaks" -- Cat out 15:41, 7 May 2006 (UTC)
 * That's because I reverted it. Your template turned various article from -


 * Something (known as !$%$"!$% Konichiwa in Japanese)


 * to


 * Something (known as Japanese: !$%$"!$% Konichiwa in Japanese)


 * Is it possible to subst the template, since you won't even try and see my opinion? H ig hway Rainbow Sneakers 15:45, 7 May 2006 (UTC)
