User talk:Bulmabriefs144

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This page's existence is a nuisance to me. Every time I log in, I do not want or need new comments on some post I have done. The bright orange "new message" is obnoxious, and the comments are either unnecessary, or outright unhelpful (such as quibbling with me about where I got a source, I either read it somewhere, heard it from a reliable source, or didn't). Simply use your better judgement and post a note using comment text in site, it isn't that difficult. Oh, and if you do decide anyway to post here, leave the sprotect up. I can tolerate (barely) registered users posting here, but people with names like 153221.385792.93857 should have no business entering into a user page.

[edit] Since People Will Post Anyway

Sigh... At least keep it neat by posting down here, rather than editing the top. Bulmabriefs144 (talk) 17:32, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] January 2008

Hello. Please don't forget to provide an edit summary, which wasn't included with your recent edit to Fruits Basket. Thank you. Please remember to use a good edit summary on your edits to help other editors explain your actions, particularly when you are tagging sections. Collectonian (talk) 01:36, 18 January 2008 (UTC)

Please do not add original research or novel syntheses of previously published material to our articles as you apparently did to [[:Secret of Mana and Mana (series)]]. Please cite a reliable source for all of your information. Thank you. Take a look at the five pillars if you do not know what policies wikipedia has. MythSearchertalk 16:50, 8 February 2008 (UTC)

Okay, I really don't understand that one. From playing the game, this is how it works. And the part about the monsters name's is not original research, the poem about the Jabberwocky is actually where the name came from, along with the term vorpal blade which is often used in TSR games. I also don't appreciate you reverting the article for this either, when you could simply have put an Original research tag on the section, and edited the content. The 5 pillars doesn't explain at what you are getting at, either, due to the fact that encycopedic nature of Wikipedia is only one of the five points, since it must also be free content (meaning although it attempts to be encyclopedic, it won't be and some sections, particularly game, anime, and Star Trek will have non-encyclopedic content such as original research), and does not have firm rules. That is, although original research is frowned upon, it is cause for editing not reversion. Bulmabriefs144 (talk) 15:49, 11 February 2008 (UTC)

Since it is where I do not think anyone could get a reliable source as a citation. The names comes from the translators, not the original game designer, and the Japanese version of the game does not carry those names. Wiki does not have firm rules other than the five pillars, and WP:NOR is one of them. It is an official policy, All articles must follow our no original research policy, and editors must strive for verifiable accuracy: unreferenced material may be removed, so please provide references.

Yes, it's mainly a decision by the translators. Which is why I'm trying to figure out whether the timeframe was feasible to render it a cause-effect decision on the part of the translators. I don't care about the Japanese version, so if I decided that they actually did come afterwards (this was under debate with Buffy) I will make it clear that this only constitutes the English translation. For this reason the tag to probably be used is that it does not reflect something wordlwide. Okay, I found references although some work may be needed on them (I never mastered the MLC format).

I said Japan does not have an 8 element concept in their mythology, that is why I reverted that edit, that sentence incorrectly stated that the 8 element comes from Japan mythology. The 5 element concept is from China's taoism, 金, 木, 水, 火, 土. Look clearly at what I have edited, and about the timeline, I admit I was wrong, but it does not alter the effectiveness of the policy against original research. MythSearchertalk 06:28, 12 February 2008 (UTC)
K, whatever. Someone else can figure out if these sections can be sorted out, and possibly re-referenced. I'm gonna let the matter drop, because I'm stubborn, and arguing with equally stubborn people becomes an exercise in time exhaustion. Bulmabriefs144 (talk) 03:55, 18 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Wikipedia:Delegable proxy

Here is that page I was telling you about. Please provide any ideas you can think of at Wikipedia talk:Delegable proxy. Thanks, Ron Duvall (talk) 16:33, 17 February 2008 (UTC)

I'm sorry, but I dunno what the heck you're talking about. Bulmabriefs144 (talk) 03:55, 18 February 2008 (UTC)


NO! I don't want to be involved, you can't make me. Bulmabriefs144 (talk) 14:43, 26 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] AfD nomination of Pillar System

I have nominated Pillar System, an article you created, for deletion. I do not feel that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Pillar System. Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time. Do you want to opt out of receiving this notice? NickPenguin(contribs) 02:14, 25 May 2008 (UTC)

Go ahead then. Better yet though, merge it with Magic Knight Rayearth, since it is actually key to understanding the series. Jerk. Bulmabriefs144 (talk) 12:13, 3 June 2008 (UTC)
