[edit] re: Should we note this is the exact same power as Phoebe Halliwell in Charmed?

I still haven't watched "The Fix" but i don't think there is really a need to compare the two. Unless the actual POWERS are the same (I didn't watch more than say 6 eps of charmed after pru died) then its not really important, just the same word. But again, if phoebe's powers really are the same as Peter's, i say mention it on the Talk Page over there. WookMuff 18:44, 6 February 2007 (UTC)

Cool, then I say go bring it up in the talk page over there, because if its essentially the same then it has a place there, as an antecendent or precedent or both WookMuff 20:09, 6 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Your user page

Hello, I just happened to be looking at your user page and realized that your link to the Angel episode "Your Welcome" is wrong. Just thought I should let you know. Thefro552 01:23, 7 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Chris Halliwell

I just want to clarify what exactly we were arguing over. The article written before I added anything, implied (to me at least) that Chris had not died, but returned to the future just in time with a different memory. What I wrote in was that the reason his body had disappeared wasn't because he had suddenly changed the future just enough to save his life in time, but because he did die and his body dissapeared from present time because he was dead, and his spell to send himself back to the past couldn't be sustained with his magic anymore (of which there are several examples of spells no longer working after a character has died before in the show). I wasn't trying to write things in that "i worked out for myself," or only fan-speculative, but if I was in some way going against wikipedia policy then I apologize but please elaborate on what exactly I did that was wrong, because that paragraph seemed awfully overly-optimistic way to look at his death. At that point, they had no idea if the future had changed or not, but the article reads as if they did. Now, I did rewatch the episode, and I saw the line you mentioned, but that wasn't what I had been asking about. I already knew he definately died (although I don't think the article states that clearly enough)I wanted to know where it stated that the future had definately changed, and how that was the reason for his body disappearing.

On the other note, you again deleted the references and several internal links I put in, including the ones that had nothing to do with the paragraph in question. Now, I admit I am still fairly new to wikipedia, which is why I didn't revert the article again since you seem to have been here longer than I have and I don't have that much expierience with adding references to articles, but I really have no idea what I did wrong there. I was under the impression that the more references an article had, the better the article was. So I decided that where I found a statement talking about a specific episode, to add in the reference to that episode, to help try and improve the quality of the article, which is how it seemed to me references had been treated in there already. Again, I could be wrong, but if I am please specify how. If I was being excessive (which I can agree I was being a bit in the statistics box) then please tell me that, but I still would like to know why with the internal links were cut as well.

I would just like a specific reason for why the internal links and unrelated references were taken out, as well as an elaboration for your view of my added statement in the last paragraph, because although Chris is my favorite character on Charmed, I honestly wasn't trying to sound like an overexcited-and-ignoring-the-facts "cHriS iz sOoOo hOtt!" fangirl; and I am extrememly sorry if that was how I came off. Thank you. Irish Pearl 21:46, 7 February 2007 (UTC)

    • I completely understand what happened, and thanks for trying to put the references back in! (Those things take a while to do...and it was one of the first times I was trying to put in references, which is also partially why I had gotten so upset about it...so I apologize if I came across as overreacting) So I guess we both misread what the other was saying. But I understand, so thank you for telling me about the mix-up! I was confused over what I had did wrong, so I really appriciate you getting back to me about it so quickly! Thank you. Irish Pearl 22:24, 7 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Gay icon

Hi and thanks for your addition of the reference for Dykon in this article. Unfortunately, it's not usable in its current form (damn those picky Wikipedians!). You only gave the Newspaper, date and page number, but not the author or name of the article. We do need that if we are to be able to verify that source. Can you find it again? Otherwise we will be forced to revert to the Urban Dictionary. The fate of the entire English language Wikipedia rests on your shoulders. Good luck! Jeffpw 22:41, 7 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Links to redirects to Cardiff Rift

Hi, Zythe. Thanks for fixing the links to redirects to Cardiff Rift, but it's really not necessary. See Wikipedia:Redirect#Don't fix links to redirects that aren't broken. The important thing is that the link display correctly and bring the reader to the right article. (I made the same mistake myself early on.) Thanks! —Josiah Rowe (talkcontribs) 21:47, 14 February 2007 (UTC)

Actually, WP:R does say to fix links to redirects in templates, so you were right on that one. It's all good. —Josiah Rowe (talkcontribs) 21:52, 14 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Juliet Burke's Opening

Hey, I'm new to editing wikipedia. I'm just wondering what you meant when you said to avoid using POV terms? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Brian815 (talkcontribs) 05:06, 17 February 2007 (UTC).

Hey, you helped me earlier and I had another question. The picture for Juliet Burke is horrible, and I was wondering how to add/edit pictures.

[edit] Re: Your moving Maxxie and Anwar

Just making sure you knew, the rule is that you don't disambiguate titles unless the namespace is already taken. It was decided a couple months ago. The rule is at WP:TV-NAME. Also, while on the subject of skins edits... the template, which doesn't need to exist might I add. Consider spouse is used to refer to any partner, not just those to whom they are married. A good example of this is the Marissa Cooper infobox. ~ZytheTalk to me! 15:41, 26 February 2007 (UTC)

Hi, didnt realise about the naming convention, i just thought it was inkeeping with the other articles. No matter, no harm done. Thanks for letting me know. As for the reference to skings edits, and a template, i havent added any templates, so im not so sure what you were meaning regarding that. Cheers Reedy Boy 17:31, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
Whoops, got you and Trampikey muddled up with that last bit.~ZytheTalk to me! 18:15, 26 February 2007 (UTC)

Woo, thank you, and you. Just found yours. Nice horse :P ~ZytheTalk to me! 18:28, 26 February 2007 (UTC)

Haha, that horse has no brain. Dontya think maxxie (well, the guy that plays him..) is quite fit :o ;) Reedy Boy 19:19, 26 February 2007 (UTC)

Definitely. Too bad no information on Mitch Hewer actually exists yet.~ZytheTalk to me! 19:24, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
Yeah! One question that keeps being asked on the E4 forums, is which way does he swing in real life... Reedy Boy 19:27, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
I found a bunch of those threads when googling for any information on him whatsoever.~ZytheTalk to me! 19:28, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
{I agree} -Trampikey(talk)(contribs) 19:34, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
It is a bit weird there is nought on him, but then, he hasnt been in anything big realy... Hmmmm Reedy Boy 19:44, 26 February 2007 (UTC)

The infobox on Marissa Cooper is simply wrong. A spouse is the person you are married to. -Trampikey(talk)(contribs) 18:46, 26 February 2007 (UTC)

I would like to award you this television barnstar for your hard work on Torchwood and Skins-related articles. -Trampikey(talk)(contribs) 18:58, 26 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Charmed family and friends revert-war

I'm not sure I'm understanding correctly, but in your most recent revert ([1]) your comment seems to indicate that you're removing speculation, but the actual edit looks more like you're adding the speculation back in. Am I misunderstanding the conflict, or did you revert something you didn't mean to? --Maelwys 20:15, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] LGBT WikiProject newsletter

[edit] Ganon Article

I'm increasingly becoming of the opinion that the article is hopeless. More and more OR, flowery prose, and a general sense that it's more an overdramatic fanpage than an encyclopedia article continue to run rampant, especially, of late, in the Wind Waker, Twilight Princess, and most prominently, the OOT sections. (Maybe doing away with the sections for individual games will be necessary.)

In short: There are far too many people editing the article who don't care about whether it's encyclopedic, or what has been decided about it. We need to either semi-protect it or just accept the fact that it's gone to the dogs for good. -- Digital Watches! 00:37, 4 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Narnia/The closet

Hey Zythe, I'm sorry, I did a quick Google search without much luck (just one urbandictionary result that was a bit ambiguous, and only that -- no other instances within the first few pages), so I figured it was something left over from a vandal. I'd never heard it before, and it sounded rather odd to me. Just if you could provide a citation, that would be awesome. Thanks. --Fbv65edel / ☑t / ☛c || 00:59, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

Don't contact me on my myspace to talk about Wikipedia, that's just rude.

If it's not explicitly verified in the series or in an external interview it doesn't go in the episode.

What's your point? His actual powers as seen in the show as both baby and adult are listed.

Wikipedia business goes on my talk page, not here, for reference and so there's documentation of it. I'm going to move this conversation there if you wish to continue it. Thanks.

Also, didn't Huntster (talk contribs) revert you and not me?~ZytheTalk to me! 20:02, 17 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Skins character pictures

You provided all the character pictures from the Skins myspce-style site... don't you think that screenshots would be better? They're not posed, and not at those awful jaunty angles... I'm just asking your opinion before I change them to screenshots of the characters... -Trampikey(talk)(contribs) 15:01, 18 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Thank You

I cannot thank you enough for cleaning up the personal section of Billie Joe's article. It really means a lot to me personally, and I think it'll be less likely to be vandalised now that it is *even more* clear that previously stated. Honestly, from the bottom of my heart, thank you.

[edit] Kudos and question

As Mike said above, the way you handled closing that category seemed very fair to me. You listified and kept the right ones, and set precedent for CfD (listifying and deleting trivial superpowers) in future. Anyway, my question is: Is there any way to repopulate any of the categories that Cydebot stripped down? ~ZytheTalk to me!

Thanks for your comments : ) - Best I can think of is to go through his or his bot's edit history. I presume that the category members would be grouped together. - jc37 03:40, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
Suppose I'll just have to use that Wikipedia cache I found and do it manually.~ZytheTalk to me! 11:36, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Powers categories

Please stop adding these to articles. Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2007 March 7#Category:Fictional characters by superhuman power, a discussion you took part in, again disallows these. --Chris Griswold () 13:54, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

Did you look at the much more recent March 14 discussion which I posted on your talk page? The result was that some were kept, and some were liftified. Have some respect for the due process of that CfD and revert your edits.~ZytheTalk to me! 13:59, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
Zythe, I think your last sentence may come across (unintentionally, I hope) as a bit less than civil, but that aside, in the future, perhaps if you had used an edit summary on each of your restorations, there might not have been the confusion. Perhaps something like:
I hope this helps : ) - jc37 19:23, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
I apologise to Chris if I came across uncivil.~ZytheTalk to me! 09:25, 28 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Dead Like Me and categories

Yo. I've reverted several of your edits introducing categories, these are needless (and with possibly endless additions) clutter that all to often are deleted (the one you added has been deleted prior I believe). Creating some typo of list of pertinent healers is a solution imo. Matthew 23:19, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

Then get consensus to add those categories into the articles. I dispute the insertion of the categories into the articles, thus get a consensus to add them. Matthew 10:51, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
