[edit] 3RR

You already have. Don't wikilawyer unless you're in the clear. — Someguy0830 (T | C) 21:29, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

Your first edit is a revert, as are subsequent ones. — Someguy0830 (T | C) 21:40, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Your {{helpme}} tag

Hi, I noticed your {{helpme}} tag. Do you need help with something? --KFP (talk | contribs) 21:57, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

• Well, I suggest that you try to resolve the dispute by explaing your thoughts at Talk:Orochimaru (Naruto) and Talk:Kakashi Hatake and discussing the disputed edits with Someguy0830 and other involved editors there and hopefully you will reach an understanding. I cannot really "take sides" in this argument as I am not at all familiar with Naruto. Let me know if you cannot reach a consensus through discussion or if you have further questions. Cheers, --KFP (talk | contribs) 22:54, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Databook scan

You could find it yourself. I'm not in the mood to scan and edit it. It's on page 109. — Someguy0830 (T | C) 06:51, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Category

Instead of blanking the category , wait for the CfD to finish. What you're doing is just confusing and disruptive. — Someguy0830 (T | C) 07:06, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

You're just being disruptive, intentionally or not. They are immortal, regardless of your belief otherwise. The parent category is appropriate. — Someguy0830 (T | C) 07:10, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Nemu's wannabe

That seems rather unusual he was reverting to all of Nemu's previous versions and editing in the very same way, sockpuppet maybe? either way he was blocked for 48 hours if he does it again we have him blocked for vandalism. -Dark Dragon Flame 01:05, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

Sure thing, I am considering requesting semi-protection there just to let the vandalism wave cool down. -Dark Dragon Flame 01:13, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Categories

Quit being a wikilawyer and pay attention. It's really tiring. It does no good to categorize redirects. You cannot access redirects and navigate their categories through anything other than article editing. Furthermore, since the obvious has escaped you, you especially can't access foreign wiki versions of a redirect without needless trouble. Get it? — Someguy0830 (T | C) 01:20, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

It's not my problem if a few redirects are done incorrectly. However, I've told you why your actions are unnecessary. For once, accept that and move on. — Someguy0830 (T | C) 01:33, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

Why should a redirect have a category? It's a page kept to take people to articles, it is not an article itself. Does George W Bush have all the categories of George W. Bush? Should it? No. This is common sense. Imagine how HUGE categories would get if filled with redirects. Infact, the only category the redirect George W Bush has is Category:Protected redirects which is clearly appropriate. --Deskana (request backup) 01:42, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

Should I gather two or three more people to make you give up, PL, or are you going to stop now that three different people have told you why your actions are useless? — Someguy0830 (T | C) 01:46, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

Well, answer me this: why do some of the Digimon characters that are redirected have categories in them? Please answer me. Power level (Dragon Ball) 01:50, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

Because whoever made those articles has done an absolutely terrible job of properly formatting and categorizing them. I don't even know where to begin. Suffice to say that their screwups do not allow you to repeat their mistakes. Learn from mistakes, do not help spread them. — Someguy0830 (T | C) 02:04, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

Give me the names of the pages and I will use AWB to remove all the categories. --Deskana (request backup) 02:05, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

It's much, much worse than that, Deskana. See Category:Data Digimon and pick the first thing. Suffice it to say that categorized redirects are the least of that article series' problems. — Someguy0830 (T | C) 02:10, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

(edit conflict) There are WAY, WAY, too many Deskana. Some I think I remember at the moment are Birdramon, Garudamon, Megakabuterimon, Kabuterimon, Angemon, Wargreymon, and so many others. I'll find out later tonight though if I have the strength. Also, to Someguy0830, don't give me that "Learn from your mistakes and don't take other mistakes crap" because I actually thought that there was no prob in doing what I did. As I've said before in the past, I never do mistakes on purpose: only tests and other edits. I don't vandalize like a jerk-off since I've changed my ways. So, quit givin' me that gay speech because its useless. Power level (Dragon Ball) 02:17, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

If it were useless you'd have caught on by now. You wouldn't keep arguing until an admin shot you down, which is basically the only thing that ever stops you from wikilawyering things into oblivion and beyond. — Someguy0830 (T | C) 02:19, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

ENOUGH!!! This conversation is over as of now. I'm gonna eat somethin'. Power level (Dragon Ball) 02:21, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

I'd like to point out that the only category Digimon redirects should be in is Category:Redirects from Digimon, as that seems to be the purpose of the category. ~SnapperTo 03:30, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Nemu's articles for deletion

Just letting you know that he went ahead and nominated Tullece, Bojack and Janemba for deletion, I will add my comments there tomorrow since I have to sleep, see you then. -Dark Dragon Flame 05:05, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

So I've noticed. I guess I'll give my vote tomorrow too... Power level (Dragon Ball) 05:11, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

Well I was going to add my comment to the deletion denominations, but when I looked for the pages guess what I found, Yup Nemu redirected them, was there a consensus before this move or is he acting on his own again? -Dark Dragon Flame 19:39, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

To clear things up, it wasn't Nemu that closed it. It was the closing administrator. Power level (Dragon Ball) 05:54, 25 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Re: Rō Kaiōshin

Sorry for the late reply. No, I don't really approve of it. And if I moved it back again and told the user to talk about it on the talk page, he would just change it back to Rō Kaiōshin and give me the same reason: "He's not a dai." Plus, the article might be merged into a list, so I want to figure out what's going to happen to it before acting. // DecaimientoPoético 16:43, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Earthlings

"earthlings" is improper capitilization. Since Earth is planet, it is capitalized and, hence, so must "Earthling". See Martian for an example. Beowulph

Oh, and I've left a message on talk:Piccolo (Dragon Ball) for awhile now. Beowulph 19:25, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Potential CFD

Hi! Yes, sorry, I have been pretty busy. If you'd like to propose that rename I will certainly vote for it. --Masamage 21:45, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Re

I do understand what you were trying to tell me, but this is something you do not understand. He pretty much ruined the whole character page. In doing this, he will have to make me, spend hours of my time fixing it back. Since you work on Dragon Ball pages, maybe you could help me (if you agree)? Tyar 23:58, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

Redirecting these pages is something that almost everyone at WP:DBZ agrees upon. Hate to break it to ya, but one person's disapproval will not be enough to keep the articles. // DecaimientoPoético 00:04, 25 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] My new WikiProject

Hey there I know it's not Dragon Ball related but I recently suggested the creation of a new WikiProject based on Devil May Cry, and I was wondering if you might be interested in supporting us, if you are please sing the Interested Wikipedians section on the Devil May Cry entry here, cheers! -Dark Dragon Flame 08:59, 25 February 2007 (UTC)

Good will you join us? we need someone to keep us vandal free and my aplication to vandal proof hasn't been ansered yet. -Dark Dragon Flame 23:22, 25 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Dragonball Template

I was recentally taking a break from wikipedia and when I returned the Template for Dragonball Charecters was really messed up. am I the only one who liked it the way it was? DBZROCKS 23:02, 26 February 2007 (UTC)

About the new Template I think shortening it was a good idea but the charecters displayed seem random. We should display only a few charecters from each catagory ex: Saiyans: Son Goku Son Gohan Vegeta Humans: Kuririn Yamcha Tenshinhan Muten Roshi Bulma Aliens: Piccolo Frieza Majin Buu Androids: Doctor Gero 18 Cell ect. also I think that shortening it to that extent was to drastic DBZROCKS 23:21, 26 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] funimation videos

I think I may have some Funimation Dragonball Z videos somewhere in my garage but I don't know for sure. DBZROCKS 23:11, 26 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Hearing

Not off hand, nor am I particularly concerned with filling it. — Someguy0830 (T | C) 09:14, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

Genius is a subjective term, and the category has been removed more times than I can remember. — Someguy0830 (T | C) 09:17, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

Do you simply like complaining about pointless crap? Really, you focus on the stupidest things then doggedly complain until you're shut down or get your way. Go do something useful. Geniuses are generally actually smart, not merely talented. Of all the examples you gave, only two are actually geniuses. Were we to judge in the respect of abiility, anyone with a shred of talent in any given field would be a genius. It defeats the purpose to have a category when it is so full you can barely navigate it. — Someguy0830 (T | C) 09:32, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

Quit being impatient. Don't assume I agree with you because I don't respond instantly. Nothing obligates me to do so. — Someguy0830 (T | C) 09:33, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

Find something better to do than complain about a category. I've explained myself and will not do so further just because you're incapable of letting it go. Shikamaru is a genius. Neji is talented. One does not equal the other. — Someguy0830 (T | C) 09:45, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

I have no idea what you're talking about now. Since you know what I mean, figure it out for yourself. — Someguy0830 (T | C) 09:53, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

Like I said, figure it out on your own. I'm tired. — Someguy0830 (T | C) 09:56, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Slow down

While the amount of effort you put into Wikipedia is admirable, I think you need to slow down and find out a bit more about guidelines and policies. I see you making a lot of changes that don't fit into them, such as treating fictional characters as real people.[1] I'm also really disturbed by the way you treat your talk page, constantly blanking warnings and giving false edit summaries that you are somehow archiving them. I had to do quite a bit of digging to find out how often you've been warned for 3RR and civility violations - in itself a disturbing trend. I can only conclude that you don't really know how to deal with your talk page or you are intentionally trying to hide such warnings (your continual removal of links to what archives that do exist would support this idea). So just slow down, read up on policies and guidelines, and ask questions before you simply revert somebody else's edits. CovenantD 20:36, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

Then remove them. You're misusing it. It does not apply the the innane and unused redirects you create en masse for no reason. — Someguy0830 (T | C) 23:13, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

Quit acting stupid for once. I'm not willing to deal with it. Instead of actually reading what Retlor told you, in which he covered this very situation, you are acting stupid and asking me questions which have already been answered. Another thing, Orochimaru doesn't use soft physique modification. His version isn't surgery-based, it's a different jutsu. Furthermore, he's actually a collaboration of many tiny white snakes hiding inside human skin (344 spoilers), so most human tricks don't apply. — Someguy0830 (T | C) 00:04, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

I don't know Burdock and Ive explained the shortcut thing to you. — Someguy0830 (T | C) 00:14, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Your warning

• I was merely reverting vandalism from another author and you know it. I'm not part of this content dispute over techniques. Issuing a blanking warning was completely out of line. Don't do it again. JuJube 23:29, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
  • No, it doesn't. Don't be ridiculous. You'd better resolve this content dispute with Someguy0830 before you decide what is and what isn't blanking. JuJube 23:34, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
    • We did solve it, somewhat. Now he's goin' back on it. Power level (Dragon Ball) 23:37, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
      • Reading the talk page, it appears that, if anything, it was resolved in favor of not having the technique. But, again, I'm not part of this dispute. JuJube 23:42, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] "Shortcuts"

Several redirects you created have been nominated for deletion. CovenantD 00:02, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Artificial Beings

Hey P got a question for you. I know why Andriods, Robots/Cyborgs and Machine Mutants are on the respective page now. However do you really think they need to have there own list page? Just think about. I know if I remember there was a List of Artificial Beings in Dragon Ball, but bring it back would seem somewhat right would it not? I know they were put on them pages because of the nature of where they was created at but really none were naturally born with the exception of Dr Gero, A 17 and 18, Dr. Uiro (Wheeler) and Dr. Kochin but later made into artificial beings. I wanted to get your opinion on it. I am not making a big deal but it just doesn't seem right to put robots and androids as natural earthling with the exception of the ones I mention earlier. Machine Mutants well I think they could stay but again if not natural born but created into machines they could go if decided to put a new list for the AB.

Heat P 17:40, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

It's cool with me. Just wondering if you thought it would be ok to have a list for them but again I am still down with them being on their respective race lists. As for the title of the article? myself it seems ok to me but it is ok to change to that(List of earthling in Dragon Ball). Heat P 11:01, 1 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Zarbon and Dodoria

The pages have been fine for a long time now. They are heavily important characters (responsible for idea behind masterminding the destruction of saiyan planet) etc. They appear more than super 17 and broly. It was never agreed in wikiproject dragonball that their pages be removed fully. This is blatant discrimination against characters. Please refrain yourself from destroying the pages. —the preceding comment is by 149.68.98.18 (talk • contribs) 149.68.98.18: Please sign your posts!.

[edit] Overuse of templates

Just a quick note with some friendly advice regarding your usage of templates, often at inappropriate times. Please be more careful with what you post on userpages/user talks with templates, and make sure that the contents of the template actually apply to the situation. For example, your constant use of "Blatantvandal" and "Test4" in cases of content dispute. When somebody disagrees with you on the content of an article, that does not make them a "blatant vandal". You should discuss the problems on the articles talk page, and attempt to work it out rationally before you call them a "blatant vandal".

Also, your use of the sockpuppet tag. A sockpuppet, by definition, is an account created by a user that already has an account. So any IP/anon accounts cannot be sockpuppets, because they're not really accounts, they're just default usernames for people that haven't created accounts yet. And if somebody is on a dial-up connection, or using a public library/school connection, they'll have a lot of different IPs (a new one each time they connect, most likely), but that doesn't mean that they've got a lot of "sockpuppets", it just means that they're on a rotating IP. So claiming that each IP is a sockpuppet just clogs up the sockpuppet categories. Also, in most of those cases (especially in a case like an AOL IP, or a school computer lab) there are probably a lot of different users that have an equal chance of using the same IP, meaning that flagging an IP as a "sockpuppet" of an account is inaccurate, because the next day somebody entirely different and unrelated to that account could be using the same IP.

Anyway, just some advice I wanted to share. If you have any questions about templates or policies, feel free to let me know (here is fine, I'll watch this talk page for a while to keep responses all in one place) and I'll be happy to help you out anyway I can. --Maelwys 20:34, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
