Your vandalism comment
I realize that this comment was tongue-in-cheek, but it could be easily misinterpreted. Please refrain from posting comments like these - remember that the reader can't possibly infer your tone of voice. Shinobu 11:00, 24 May 2006 (UTC)

new game page
Emulator, you wrote such a long article at List of Monster Hunter monsters that I wanted to talk to you about it before I proposed it for deletion. It just seems unnecessary to me to have so much detailed information about this game in an encyclopedia. Also, I think it violates our policy, WP:NOT, which says that wikipedia is not a game guide. While this isn't game guide info per se, it's level of detail isn't necessary for an encyclopedia. Perhaps you could put an external link to such information in the page for the game itself?--Kchase02 T 04:26, 12 June 2006 (UTC)

After looking at the game's page, a move seems merger seems most appropriate. Would that be amenable to you?--Kchase02 T 04:29, 12 June 2006 (UTC)


 * The article was simply taken from the Monster Hunter article. I do agree with you. It is up to you what you do with it. --TheEmulatorGuy 07:39, 12 June 2006 (UTC)


 * I'll merge it.--Kchase02 T 07:42, 12 June 2006 (UTC)

M vs M15+
OFLC naming conventions say the short version of the classification is "M", not "M 15+" 

Additionally, the 15+ has been dropped from all newer markings, and the OFLC have asked that older classifications drop the 15+ as well to maintain consistency.

I'm happy to continually remove the 15+ as the OFLC request as well as to maintain consistency between older "M 15+" and new "M".

You misunderstood
I was correcting another act of vandalism on a different part of the article. I think it was corrected before I finished my edits, so it might not show. I do know that the page refreshes, but what I have a problem with is you saying that it displays new content. It obviously doesn't yet, so saying that it does is nothing but prediction and speculation. Velessar 23:19, 30 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Then it is quite obviously a misunderstanding, caused simply by the mixture of vandalism and good edits which the page is suffering interchangeably. I changed the section so that it did not state that the page would be updated with new content, and must have swallowed your correction in the process. Velessar 23:25, 30 June 2006 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:The Black Mages - More Friends.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:The Black Mages - More Friends.jpg. The image description page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

FFVIII in European territories
Hey. While I don't know if I'd say that the information you added in your recent edit is necessarily irrelevant (though, in all honesty, it isn't jumping out at me), that wouldn't be the proper way to include the information. Also, the claim can't be its own reference. Ryu Kaze 23:44, 4 August 2006 (UTC)
 * By the way, part of the reason why I'm not convinced that the information's terribly relevant is that every game released in Europe doesn't get a release in every last European country anyway. There's a whole lot of them over there after all. Ryu Kaze 00:05, 5 August 2006 (UTC)
 * It's not incorrect, though. The game was released in Europe. Just not all of it. Exactly which countries it was released in is a matter for an article discussing the release of video games in PAL territories, as this information you've added applies to every game released in Europe. That's general information about video game releases in Europe, not release information specific to Final Fantasy VIII. Ryu Kaze 14:52, 5 August 2006 (UTC)
 * For that matter, an understanding of what release in PAL territories means tells someone which countries are included when one refers to a European release. That's why it's a general matter, and not something that every last video game article (or at least the articles for those games released in Europe, which is still a lot) needs to mention. Ryu Kaze 14:55, 5 August 2006 (UTC)
 * See PAL region. The concept of PAL, as written there, says "Australasia and the majority of Europe" (emphasis added). It doesn't suggest that it covers every last country in Europe. There's nothing misleading when making reference to a European video game release. Ryu Kaze 15:03, 5 August 2006 (UTC)

Ronnie Johns
Hi, just wondering why you removed the links to the YouTube videos on the Ronnie Johns article. Not saying you were wrong, but with no edit summary I wasn't sure of your reason behind it. Confusing Manifestation 00:47, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

Final Fantasy IX
A good portion of the information in that article is referenced by the game manual itself (per other FF FAs); and, per most other FF FAs, the citations were placed at the end of the paragraphs to lessen redundancies. Don't worry, I'll get around to the article like I promised eventually :) &mdash; Deckill e r 23:19, 18 August 2006 (UTC)

Unspecified source for Image:050110 sativa tree 2.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:050110 sativa tree 2.jpg. I notice the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this file yourself, then there needs to be a justification explaining why we have the right to use it on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you did not create the file yourself, then you need to specify where it was found, i.e., in most cases link to the website where it was taken from, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the file also doesn't have a copyright tag, then one should be added. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the GFDL-self tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Fair use, use a tag such as or one of the other tags listed at Image copyright tags. See Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following [ this link]. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Nv8200p talk 01:13, 30 September 2006 (UTC)

Image tagging for Image:Final_Fantasy_VII-Elmyra_Gainsborough.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Final_Fantasy_VII-Elmyra_Gainsborough.jpg. The image has been identified as not specifying the source and creator of the image, which is required by Wikipedia's policy on images. If you don't indicate the source and creator of the image on the image's description page, it may be deleted some time in the next seven days. If you have uploaded other images, please verify that you have provided source information for them as well.

Orphaned fair use image (Image:Tomba - Dwarf.jpg)
Thanks for uploading Image:Tomba - Dwarf.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently specifies that the image is unlicensed for use on Wikipedia and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable under fair use (see our fair use policy).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Gay Cdn (talk) (Contr.) 17:00, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

Vaseys vs. Vasey's
It would be nice if you could post your rationale on the talk page, and not just in the edit summaries, so this response could be seen by more editors (I reposted it on the article's talk page). But normally I would agree with you about government sources trumping most others. However, these sources did not deal directly with the topic of vaseys paradise, and only mentioned it in passing. For these reasons, I think scholarly works would be much better researched. (It should also be noted that Google gives more hits for "vaseys paradise" than "vasey's paradise" when searching within the .gov domain. vs. .) Additionally, not all government sources call it vasey's. Here is one from the USGS which does not use the possessive (and generally appears much better researched.) --YbborT  04:06, 26 November 2006 (UTC)

CAT1-X Hyperion Gundam series
Obviously, I'm not convinced that all of the nearly 100 pages violate policies. All I have in support of that assertion is your word. I, as well as apparently many other editors, do not think it's a good idea to delete dozens of pages this way, with editors voting "keep" or "delete" based on their review of perhaps half a dozen pages (and, often, of only one). What needs to happen, really, is that a WikiProject needs to address the category systematically; I'd like to see its constituents kept until such a thing can be organized. --Hyperbole 01:11, 1 December 2006 (UTC)
 * I think you're wrong to assert that the articles are "stolen." I Googled four phrases from CAT1-X Hyperion Gundam series - two from the introduction, one from the Specifications section, and one from the Trivia section.  The two from the introduction and the one from Trivia returned only Wikipedia and mirrors - it appears to have been written for this site.  The stuff from the Specifications section does in fact appear to be copyvios and should be removed.  But that's an issue for the editorial process - not for a massive AfD.  I'll go ahead and delete the Specifications section out of that article.  --Hyperbole 01:30, 1 December 2006 (UTC)
 * When you talk about "policy violations," all you seem to be contending that the articles all violate WP:NOT and/or WP:NOR, right? You apparently claim that they violate WP:NOT on the basis that they're "indiscriminate" - but WP:NOT lists seven specific categories of "indiscriminate information," and these articles don't appear related to any of those.  As for their violation of WP:NOR, well, I quite simply don't follow you at all, there.  I don't see any evidence that any of the information in these articles was made up by Wikipedia editors.  As I said, I don't have any evidence other than your word that the articles are violating policy.  --Hyperbole 01:37, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

Calm down
I've made the same mistake about these kinds of cruft cleaning on Wikipedia. Before you make individual AfDs, I suggest making a request for comment discussion where we can set up sub-groups for deletion. This way people will see that the articles have been evaluated, etc etc. It just makes people a little bit more comfortable about this kind of thing. And this will be faster than individual AfDs. It's really frustrating, I know, but remember that Wikipedia is a bit like a wild animal. -- Ned Scott 23:57, 1 December 2006 (UTC)


 * And I'd be glad to help set up that RfC. -- Ned Scott 23:58, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

Warcraft
I agree with Ned Scott (in this specific case, I disagree with changing of the Rhonin and Aegwynn articles to redirects. The subjects of the aforementioned articles are quite central to the Warcraft Universe, the former being a main character in four (out of seven) novels and the latter having caused (albeit, somewhat indirectly) the original conflict that started the whole Warcraft line. Regardless, while they may not be important to you or the world (the latter being somewhat debatable), they are quite central to Warcraft. Granted, that is one of the reasons you brought up for changing the articles to redirects, but the same could be said about any article regarding fictional subjects. Are you on a crusade as well to remove all articles on Marvel Universe characters? Lord of the Rings? Harry Potter? I would hope not, but if you are, the most I can do is ask you to first make individual AfDs, or, at the very least, request discussion on the article's talk page. I am therefore going to revert your edits to the Rhonin and Aegwynn articles. If you still feel that they should be redirected, put up AfDs for each one or request discussion on either the article talk page or at WikiProject Warcraft. And as a sidenote, your edits created circular redirects.--Arabani (Talk ∞ Contribs) 23:13, 3 December 2006 (UTC)
 * That's not what Ned Scott was talking about, in fact, it was something completely different. I've left a message on your talk page. --TheEmulatorGuy 23:20, 3 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Oops, how embarrassing. At first glance, it did appear somewhat related (AfDs and whatnot), but I guess it isn't. :D Anyway, you do bring up a valid point, although I still think it's better to discuss it first before arbitrarily redirecting. A request for improving the articles could have also been made at WikiProject Warcraft; if after several days your concerns were not addressed, then I would have no argument with you. I just dislike seeing articles arbitrarily removed. --Arabani (Talk ∞ Contribs) 23:36, 3 December 2006 (UTC)

CAT1-X Hyperion Gundam series AfD
I am in the process of closing Articles for deletion/CAT1-X Hyperion Gundam series. I just wanted to let you know that when you create a second, third, etc. AfD that you should not modify the previous AfDs. You need to create a separate page for each AfD—do not overwrite or modify the previous AfD. In this case, you started by replacing the previous AfD that was closed on April 29th. —Doug Bell talk 07:57, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

Well this is strange. I figured you would have been notified for sure since your actions are called into question. I think it is very bad form that you weren't notified that my closing of your AfD nomination is up for review here. —Doug Bell talk 20:57, 6 December 2006 (UTC)


 * A simple comment on this AfD: Dear god, please, never do such a mass nomination ever again. It really helps nobody. Also, for a happy note, keep up the good work on video game articles. -- Kicking222 16:20, 7 December 2006 (UTC)

Gundam deletion
Thanks for taking on the challenge of dealing with ripping out such a massive pile of inappropriate material all at once. I've been considering doing something about it for a while, but the scale of the problem was daunting. When you've recovered, you might want to consider the other gundam continuities, there's several hundred more articles along the same line where that came from that really go into far too much detail. Category:Gundam templates has a dozen templates like the one you took on in it, each with a bunch of links each. Good luck cleaning it out. Night Gyr (talk/Oy) 14:31, 9 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Psst, Early Universal Century Mobile weapons. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Night Gyr (talk • contribs) 14:36, 9 December 2006 (UTC).

If I could make a suggestion. While I've stated several times that as painful as they are, mass AfDs are probably still preferrable to a mass of AfDs, I do think it would be helpful to try and do some grouping in the AfD to make it easier for people whose position is somewhere between keep all and delete all. It will help make the discussion more sane when people don't feel forced into only one of these two options on all of the articles in the AfD. I realize your position in nominating the articles would be that they all need to go, but you risk a trainwreck by not allowing for a consensus between the two extremes. Please see Articles for deletion/Cosmic Era vehicles for a saner approach, although you're welcome to adopt your own format. I do plan to try and create a guideline for doing these mass AfDs as I think there has to be a way to do these, but for now please try to at least apply whatever lessons you feel you learned from the last one. These will alway be painful, but perhaps they can be less painful. —Doug Bell talk 20:21, 9 December 2006 (UTC)

Dont mind me stating this but you sure do some hard headed  arguing you might make a good arguer... but take it easy with the gundam extremities.--Spartan117009 03:25, 17 December 2006 (UTC)

Greek Translation
Hi there - the characters are Greek, not Cyrillic. The top row is all capitals apart from the final letter, the bottom row is all lower case apart from the first letter. The "text" cannot be read as there are not enough vowels in the top row. The scond row could be read but makes no sense. The letters make no sense even if they were english script written on a Greek keyboard or written with the symbol character set of the old windows. A transliteration gives: "XKhM;D BFOG_th | Kore, fytadapso" I hope this helps. --5telios 08:35, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading Image:050110_sativa_tree_2.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:


 * 1) Go to the image description page and edit it to add , without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
 * 2) On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on [ this link].

Fair use
Despite my last comment probably being overly snarky. I don't want to be a jerk, sorry if you think I am. If I can find the citations (when I have a moment) I will provide them for you. Good enough? IvoShandor 11:44, 30 March 2007 (UTC)


 * Couldn't agree more. It was dumb to allow fair use if the goal was libre, whatever though. The funny thing is, with the first comment, I was actually trying, consciously, not to be rude, or an asshole, guess that worked, huh? Heh. The offer above still stands, but yeah, overall, we can avoid mundane nonsense. Sounds good to me, I just thought the original argument, "unprofessional" was weak, otherwise I wouldn't have said shit. In hindsight, I wouldn't have either. Ah well. Peace.

Final Fantasy WikiProject
Apparently, our take on fiction has not received enough popularity or support to really turn the tide against the sprawling unsourced lists on an eycyclopedia-wide scale.

 * Not quite yet, although I want to see if I can make some room tonight to expand the reception section. As for the lists, I proposed an ammendment of sorts to the plot summary concept at WP:NOT, but that's not going to fly for many editors, so I'm just going to retreat and worry about our projects and not wikipedia as a whole. &mdash; Deckiller 01:25, 8 April 2007 (UTC)

Image:VBBoundHigh!1.png
Hello Teggles, an automated process has found an image or media file tagged as nonfree media, such as fair use. The image (Image:VBBoundHigh!1.png) was found at the following location: User:Teggles/List of cancelled Virtual Boy games. This image or media will be removed per statement number 9 of our non-free content policy. The image or media will be replaced with Image:NonFreeImageRemoved.svg, so your formatting of your userpage should be fine. The image that was replaced will not be automatically deleted, but it could be deleted at a later date. Articles using the same image should not be affected by my edits. I ask you to please not re-add the image to your userpage and could consider finding a replacement image licensed under either the Creative Commons or GFDL license or released to the public domain. Please note that it is possible that the image on your page is included vie a template or usebox. In that case, please find a free image for the template or userbox. Thanks for your attention and cooperation. User:Gnome (Bot)-talk 06:11, 19 May 2007 (UTC)

stop your merging
this is a polite request that you stop merging articles like Happini and Mime Jr.. the merge process outlined at WP:POKE/Layout is the result of months of discussion and the move that has garnered the most support and consensus. Your actions do not follow any agreed upon discussion and merely reflect your interpretation of wikipedia guidlines and policies. i am more than willing to discuss the finer points of things like WP:SS, WP:OR, WP:N, and WP:WAF with you, but your current actions conflict with current consensus which is a policy about how things work in wikipedia - to violate policy in order to enforce your interpretations of guidelines (whether they are more accurate than others' or not) is just not acceptable. please use discussion and debate before making controversial moves. -PokeZap (Zappernapper) 18:23, 1 July 2007 (UTC)
 * i'm sorry that you got angry (which i realize is a non-apology), i really wish you hadn't. it's just i don't see why an article's mention of real-world context has to be some stunning analysis. Like i said, take a look at Eevee. i forgot that the merch section had been moved to the talk page, so i put it back. besides merch info, why doesn't something like:
 * "Bulbasaur made their first video game debut on February 27, 1996 in the Japanese games Pocket Monsters Aka (ポケットモンスター 赤) and Pocket Monsters Midori (ポケットモンスター 緑) (replaced in other countries by Pokémon Blue). "
 * qualify as "enough" real-world context? i really do want to make these articles better, but i don't agree that "better=shorter". after we accept that individual pokemon are just described in order for readers to better comprehend Pokemon as a whole, and that gameguide != game description, we can start improving these articles rather than spending time arguing about their existence. -PokeZap (Zappernapper) 15:19, 2 July 2007 (UTC)

Unspecified source for Image:Final_Fantasy_VIII_-_Leviathan.png
Thanks for uploading Image:Final_Fantasy_VIII_-_Leviathan.png. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, then you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, then their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the GFDL-self tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Fair use, use a tag such as or one of the other tags listed at Image copyright tags. See Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following [ this link]. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 11:17, 3 July 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. ShakespeareFan00 11:17, 3 July 2007 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:7-marlene-a.jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:7-marlene-a.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. MER-C 10:25, 7 July 2007 (UTC)

Cruft chain
Basically, by adding total cruft, you get total cruft. If someones sees that a minor one is being talked about in the anime, they'll think its OK to add another's appearances. Then people will expand on them as they see that they're allowed to stay. The same goes with trivial moves. Everybody will classify talking about a certain move as important. Pretty soon, people suddenly start adding the other garbage like the TCG crap. It probably wouldn't be that rapid, but it would start to happen, leaving us with mini-versions of the bad articles in the long run. That would take a lot of reverting. TTN 10:59, 13 July 2007 (UTC)

Metal Gear Solid
The production information has merely been moved because per notability guidelines for films, the film is not far along enough to warrant its own article at this point. See Spider-Man 4, Jurassic Park IV, Wolverine (film), and Magneto (film) for similar merging actions. —Erik (talk • contrib) - 02:13, 11 August 2007 (UTC)


 * Would it be better placed at Metal Gear (series)? There is no issue with the notability of this project, but the consensus is to keep development information about a film in the article of the source material or something similar until filming begins.  There's no reason for this project to be exempt from the guideline -- the examples I provided are arguably more notable, but they are fine in their film series article until actual production takes place. —Erik (talk • contrib) - 02:29, 11 August 2007 (UTC)


 * Notability (films) is clear on future films. It pretty much says that they should only have their own article if the production itself is notable. First, the film isn't in production so it doesn't even fit the exception clause. There is nothing notable in what I read from the development of that film. A lot of "he said this then", "he says this now". It isn't like they've been spending the better part of 20 years to get a film off the ground.   BIGNOLE     (Contact me)  02:36, 11 August 2007 (UTC)
 * As I said, it can be merged into Metal Gear (series), not the Metal Gear Solid video game. --Teggles 02:38, 11 August 2007 (UTC)


 * Ok, I can place the information at the series article. I just want to make sure that I do not oppose recreation of the article down the road if/when the film progresses.  I keep track of a lot of future films (see here), and the industry is known to be shaky in terms of going from an announcement to actual production.  In regard to the date, I had removed the Japanese reference because the English-language citation seemed to suffice, so using just that, I used the general time period in the article.  I've never noticed specific dates used in film articles other than filming dates; usually, if something is announced on August 10, 2007, doesn't mean that the deal was sealed that very day and publicized. —Erik (talk • contrib) - 02:40, 11 August 2007 (UTC)

Image:Adel.PNG
I have tagged Image:Adel.PNG as orphaned fairuse. In order for the image to be kept at Wikipedia, it must be included in at least one article. If this image is being used as a link target instead of displayed inline, please add article name to the image description page to prevent it being accidentally marked as orphaned again.
