[edit] Boogiepop and Others (novel)
I'm doing some Category's for novels at present, and wasn't sure if this is a novel, book, manga, graphic novel, or something else? Grey Shadow 06:46, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
- Thanks for you answer. I'm currently doing {Cat:year novels} or {Cat:year books}. I know which now. Cheers! Grey Shadow 07:03, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Sock puppetry by Ttchiem
FYI, I have filed a Wikipedia:CheckUser request on Ttchiem as I suspect that he has been using Wikipedia:Sock puppetry in order to continually restore Image:Japanophile.jpg and Image:Otaku.jpg to their respective articles under multiple accounts in a bid to circumvent the Wikipedia:Three-revert rule and the consensus of other editors that the above-mentioned images are inappropriate for Wikipedia.

[edit] ISBNs
Hi Elric, please let me know which peer review. Hyphenation (or spaces) is the standard according to the International ISBN Agency, and we can't use spaces. Rich Farmbrough 08:27 30 August 2006 (GMT).

- It was in this one. I seem to recall there being more discussion on it, but part of the discussion in that PR also disappeared somewhere along the way – my guess is that it was among that. Could your bot also stop being 'helpful' with categories? I am getting sick of reverting that three or four times a day. To get categories sorted alphabetically you often need to place them above templates, but your bot keeps moving them back to the bottom (which ends up giving me a mish-mashed order).

- Well it's done for now. I understand what your saying about categories, it raises two interesting points a. how should categories be ordered, and b. what to do about transcluded categories. The first has been thrashed out, and the conclusion reaced that alpahbetical order is not necessarily best (AWB used to order categories). The second is more probelmatical, I believe, for example that in general maintainance categories (and hence templates) should go after normal categories - and I thnk this is widely suported in principle. On the other hand it is common practice to put cleanup and wikify right at the top of articles. One off the things that AWB does in it's general options is to put interwiki at the end, and non-trancluded categories immediately before, so I will copy part of your comment and this reply onto the AWB talk page for discussion.
