I Never Did Say Thank You...

Hehe, I've only just realised that the above message isn't just a automatic system Mailout or such, and was actually posted by a real person? I feel bad for never saying thank you, also if anyone ever reads this, I'd really be thankful for any advanced help about Wikipedia (in Layman Tems)...  Doktor  Wilhelm  00:44, 20 October 2007 (UTC)

Hello

Help? Well you seem to be doing a fine job on your userpage, so you must be an intelligent, computer literate person. I'm sure if you just click the links above and explore for a while you'll find everything you need, and more. Sometimes you can find helpful stuff using search. I found http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Wikipedia_essays an interesting browse, but it's probably not what you need right now. Have fun! --Akiyama 01:56, 20 October 2007 (UTC)

Thank you.  Doktor  Wilhelm 

I made this userbox

This User is a fan of:
"Burlesque and the Art of Teese".

I just want to know what I'm ment to do with it, specifically how to make it better known? anyone know?  Doktor  Wilhelm  03:48, 23 October 2007 (UTC)




{{helpme}}

Hi. What do you need help with? - Rjd0060 04:00, 23 October 2007 (UTC)
Use the infobox as a template. Store it in one of your subpages, like User:Doktor Wilhelm/Userboxes/Fan of Burlesque, or store it at User:UBX/Fan of Burlesque or some other creative name. Oh, and please ask your question below the {{helpme}} template. Hope I helped! Goodshop 04:04, 23 October 2007 (UTC)

How do I complain about a fellow wikipedian, making disruptive edits and being offencive towards myself?  Doktor  Wilhelm  15:22, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

If the user is violating No Personal Attacks you can make a report at Administrators' Noticeboard/Incidents. If it is just vandalism a report at Administrators' Intervention against Vandalism will be sufficient. Hope this helps! - Rjd0060 15:28, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

Re: Special Effects on Hellraiser

What would make it okay to include that information in the article? Surly it is of use to know just how much Clive Barker worked on the film? (Sorry to aske here, but I wasn't sure how these things work!?)  Doktor  Wilhelm  17:02, 25 October 2007 (UTC)

Have you listened to the commentary yourself? If you have and you can tell me the specific DVD release etc, I'll put something together and cite it properly. The key is that we can't simply paste stuff from IMDB; and if someone decides to ask for a citation (as they did here), there needs to be attribution to a source. --Domestic Correction 18:36, 25 October 2007 (UTC)
I never really knew it was a " copy and pasted" job, I'll have a look see about the DVD (I've listened to it), it's part of a box set released by Anchor Bay (though I doubt that link'll be any good for citation), I'll have to find it for more details, if you let me know the exact details needed I'll try and supply them (sorry if this is causing any trouble, I'm still a bit new at this)  Doktor  Wilhelm  19:59, 25 October 2007 (UTC)
Don't worry, the link's sufficient for me to write the citation, as it gives me the right title. Primary sources are allowable, provided they're properly cited. --Domestic Correction 20:17, 25 October 2007 (UTC)

Virtual Console

No problem. I know they upgraded the visuals, but it was still the same basic game. I kept it in on the Virtual Console page, but mentioned the fact that it had been translated as part of Super Mario All-Stars (not that there is much to translate in the game though).

WikiProject Nintendo Page Redesign

A new page design is being considered for the WikiProject Nintendo page. A rough draft can be viewed here. Please add all comments and thoughts to the discussion. From the automated, Anibot 22:43, 29 October 2007 (UTC)

Revert of edit by Froth on Nintendo

There wasn't anything wrong with reverting his last edit, but you should be more careful with what you call vandalism, he could easily have been led to believe the false information (Nintendo's founding date) from an error on a website, magazine, etc.. Only claim vandalism when it's obvious, and per WP:Vandalism#What vandalism is not (although I would assume you've seen that by now). Haipa Doragon (talk) 21:45, 2 November 2007 (UTC)

Thank you, and sorry, I assumed vandalism, because Froth changed a message left by someone else, that was intended to tell people that the date was right (and asked for it not to be changed), into a misleading message, even a quick scan of the article would have proven the original date to be right (as this wasn't changed, only the date at the top of the article was changed), and as such, unfit for change! Though if there is an easier term than "Vandalism" to use in such matters, I will gladly use it (I didn't mean any trouble).  Doktor  Wilhelm  22:14, 2 November 2007 (UTC)
I Feel Bad Now!  Doktor  Wilhelm  23:20, 2 November 2007 (UTC)

CruftC

Cruft is a shortening of "fancruft". It generally means it has lots of information that fans of something, but only the fans would be interested in. Just so you know :) i (talk) 00:11, 3 November 2007 (UTC)

Re: Metal Sonic

I keep removing the part about Silver Sonic II from the "games"-section of the article because it has nothing to do with the games. Mentions of the various robotic Sonic incarnations in the comics belong in the "comics"-section. Nowhere else in the game-section of the article are the comics versions of robot Sonic's mentioned. And in order to keep the article uniform and simple to read, i feel that the paragraph about the Sonic Adventure-robot Sonic should be no exception. Rattis1 (talk) 19:01, 21 November 2007 (UTC)

Though the character from the game influencing the comic, is not details of the comics chracter, but a detail of interest about a character in the game, who otherwise, really isn't worthy of his own section with the lack of anything other than: "He's in Sonic Adventure", I could understand if this "uniform" article idea waas applied to all Sonic The Hedeghog articles, with any mixed information being seperated into Games first and then comics, but because of influences on both, this wouldn't be possible!  Doktor  Wilhelm  20:35, 21 November 2007 (UTC)

Invader ZIM

Hi, I was just wondering if you wanted to help on Invader ZIM being moved since you're a member of Invader ZIM task force. :)Leslie Granger (talk) 03:32, 27 November 2007 (UTC)

I must note that Invader ZIM and there is already a Invader Zim are two diffrent articles, for the same thing? I just found this out while looking into moving the article!  Doktor  Wilhelm  20:06, 27 November 2007 (UTC)

NIN Wikiproject

I'd like to invite you to join the newly-formed Nine Inch Nails WikiProject. There's alot of NIN-related articles on Wikipedia that could use a little attention, and I hope this project can help organize an effort to improve them. So please, take a look and if you like what you see, help us get this project off the ground and a few more Nine Inch Nails pages into the front ranks of Wikipedia articles. Thanks! Drewcifer (talk) 03:09, 28 November 2007 (UTC)

Dealing with spam

Hi Doktor. Regarding your post to User talk:24.211.8.58, the way to deal with this is to revert the links and warn using the templates series {{Spam}} ({{Spam2}}, {{Spam3}}, {{Spam4}}). Since when you came across the conduct the user had already added many, you would revert them all, then warn once using the first level warning. For each subsequent instance after that first warning, you would esclate the warning until reaching {{Spam4}} which is a final warning. If the conduct continued after placing that template, you would go to WP:AIV and report the user or ip to get a preventative block (follow the instructions there). There are many such escalating series depending on the type of improper conduct. Please see WP:UTM for a organized list of warnings. The helpme template was not a bad way to go, but it's more for placement at your own talk page. Hope this helps. Cheers.--Fuhghettaboutit (talk) 17:25, 24 December 2007 (UTC)

"In the original STH 2, there are no rings, and debug doen't bring up any rings!"

Here :) -- RattleMan 17:56, 2 January 2008 (UTC)

Emulation is pretty much a perfect copy of the original. I don't know why your game seems to not let you place rings in DEZ... @_@ -- RattleMan 14:44, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

At first you removed my edit because you said it was not possible to get rings then you claimed that wikipedia was not gamefaqs to defend your decision to remove my edit after i posted video proof that i was right. I don't know what cheat you used but it wasn't debug mode and if it was it would be pretty hard to miss the rings when they are one of the only two items available. In case you didn't see this already here is the video proof and i just did the same exact thing on my sonic 2 cartridge http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kVcEWyoKuOc Next time make sure you know what you are talking about before you tell others they are wrong. I will not undo your revision only because I stated it would be my last edit on the issue. The only reason i linked to the video was to show proof that what i said was valid and I should not have needed to in the first place.

Help Me

{{helpme}}

User:TTN keeps deleating articles, with out warning: specifically: Other characters in Sonic the Hedgehog (games) and Other villains in Sonic the Hedgehog (games), I really don't want an edit war, but I don't know what I should do!

Next time, he does it again, give him a final warning. If then, he should repeat his behavior, you can report him on Wikipedia:Administrator intervention against vandalism. Then the administrators will take care of him. Happy editing.--Thw1309 (talk) 18:03, 9 January 2008 (UTC)

Block threats

It's pretty obvious that there's disagreement over TTN's trimming of material, right? Do you see people both agreeing and disagreeing with it on the talk page? You'd do better to engage in actual discussion of the issue instead of just leaving warning templates which threaten a block. Friday (talk) 17:11, 9 January 2008 (UTC)

The block threats arn't about "triming of material", they have been removing entire articles without any warning!  Doktor  Wilhelm  18:37, 9 January 2008 (UTC)

Fair enough, but please don't call it vandalism. It's not. Friday (talk) 18:38, 9 January 2008 (UTC)
Yes, it is, as they keep doing it, with out first discussing it, or giving any reason!  Doktor  Wilhelm  18:40, 9 January 2008 (UTC)

Sonic articles

That content does not belong on this site. You are welcome to utilize Wikia if you would like to continue editing that form of content. Restoring the articles only prolongs the inevitable, so it would be much better if were to stop reverting them. TTN (talk) 17:55, 9 January 2008 (UTC)

The way you are editing the articles, would be more suited to something like a Wikia! But that isn't my main problem, it's your lack of warning &/or discusion before removing/redirecting the articles!  Doktor  Wilhelm  19:03, 9 January 2008 (UTC)
No, Wikia is for fan information, not pruned, encyclopedic information. If I had proposed removing the lists, I would have received the same response that I am now, so that is also pointless. TTN (talk) 20:08, 9 January 2008 (UTC)
So, because you knew no one else would want it deleted, you deleted it wthout warning? your not really pruning anything, just copying bit's about the chraracters from the game articles, and adding it together within one big List, which is not good enough to survive on wikipedia!  Doktor  Wilhelm  20:32, 9 January 2008 (UTC)
Oh, people would be fine with them being merged and trimmed; just not you guys. There's no point in trying to run it past die hard fans. The list is fine, and it has a better chance of surviving than the others. It'll be beefier after I merge the characters that are less important than Amy. TTN (talk) 20:37, 9 January 2008 (UTC)

I will be reverting those articles and setting up a merge discussion for the rest non-notable characters. Please leave the articles as they are until the discussion is over. If the discussion does not end up working, the articles can go back to the way that they were. TTN (talk) 16:28, 10 January 2008 (UTC)

Why can't you just leave them alone until the merge discussion is over?  Doktor  Wilhelm  17:03, 10 January 2008 (UTC)
I need people to be able to see how the articles are going to be structured. Just please leave it. TTN (talk) 17:07, 10 January 2008 (UTC)
Please remember that if the discussion does not end up working, everything will go back to the way it was. You have nothing to lose. TTN (talk) 17:09, 10 January 2008 (UTC)
I am not trying to win anything, if you continue to remove content from Wikipedia, I will have no choice but to report it to a Admin!  Doktor  Wilhelm  17:17, 10 January 2008 (UTC)
This is a content dispute, so the only thing an admin would possibly do is block both of us for edit warring. Please leave the articles until the discussion is over, so people can see the actual outcome instead of a indiscriminate list and two bloated lists. TTN (talk) 17:21, 10 January 2008 (UTC)

Please stop the reverting and discuss this on the talk page. Also, please don't refer to a content dispute as vandalism. Friday (talk) 17:28, 10 January 2008 (UTC)

Removal of content/articles, without warning &/or dicussion, could easily be Vandalism (and in this case I believe it is), and I will take it to 'a higher power' to see what they think, if TTN continues to remove the articles!  Doktor  Wilhelm  17:52, 10 January 2008 (UTC)
Friday is a "higher power", and again, this is only a content dispute, so nothing will come out of it (admins cannot do anything with content disputes past protecting pages). I really, really suggest that you head over to Wikia because the changes that will be happening here in the next few weeks will not be to your liking. For example, the main characters are going to be severely cut down after the list is all set. If they do not have a Sonic wiki already set up, I can help you move articles over after you start one. TTN (talk) 18:12, 10 January 2008 (UTC)
Right- I happen to have admin tools, but an admin's opinion means nothing more or less than that of any other editor, when it comes to content questions. The reason I object to calling this vandalism is that TTN has clearly explained that he's doing what he thinks is best for content. Vandalism is intentionally making an article worse. TTN is trying to make it better. You may disagree, but this is why we have talk pages. Calling it vandalism just makes useful discussion more difficult. This appears to essentially be a disagreement over how appropriate it is to have detailed information that's only relevant to the game universe, rather than to the real world. Friday (talk) 18:21, 10 January 2008 (UTC)
I think you've got the wrong end of the stick! They never said what or why they were doing it, originally, they hadn't even posted merger or deletion tags, they just removed two articles! This 'disagreement' is a about how TNN is going about doing what they have done, it's not even about the content of the articles, as I have stated within the merger discussion!  Doktor  Wilhelm  19:26, 10 January 2008 (UTC)

Centralized TV Episode Discussion

Over the past months, TV episodes have been reverted by (to name a couple) TTN, Eusebeus and others. No centralized discussion has taken place, so I'm asking everyone who has been involved in this issue to voice their opinions here in this centralized spot, be they pro or anti. Discussion is here [1]. --Maniwar (talk) 21:13, 15 January 2008 (UTC)

Thank you, though I haven't been involved in anything TV related! My areas of editing are mostly related to Music and Video games, the latter of which is where I've been at odds with TTN and their merge-hunger! I do have a interest in TV, but as I've hardly edited at all in that area of articles, I'm not sure I should be involved!  Doktor  Wilhelm  00:17, 16 January 2008 (UTC)

Resident Evil articles

See thats the thing. The links I added are not external links - they are third party references, which are far more important that notes from the game itself. They meet WP:RS and WP:Verify. Furthermore, the links help verify down all'' the information in the article. --ShadowJester07 ► Talk 23:34, 20 January 2008 (UTC)

I still do not see why you feel they are not needed. You are seemingly violating WP:Verify be removing them. Furthermore, they i no way infringe on Capcom's ability to make profit; the author's of each clearly address all legal issues. Other FA articles use a 'general reference' section to verify information like this. If you were to completely rely on a notes section, the article is susceptible to an AFD, as it possess no 3rd party references. Infact, without the general reference section, the article can , and will be deleted on terms of WP:A. The section even meets WP:EL, which states that links are allowed given they directly provide useful information to the article. --ShadowJester07 ► Talk 23:48, 20 January 2008 (UTC)
You are failing to see that the links are in fact references; I do not recall any lines within the context of WP:Cite that claim references need to be wrapped in references tags. Articles such as History of the New York Giants, Starship Troopers, Chicago Bears, and Fight Club (film) all use “sources” or “further reading” sections, which verify general content within the article. The legality of the references does not seem to be a particular problem – Section 2.2 of WP:EL only restricts links that directly interfere with someone’s copyright text. Since the pages do not directly inhibit Capcom’s ability to make profit, and are only used for educational purposes, I their inclusion into articles is any different from the use of images. Furthermore, the links provide information directly from the game itself, in essence, providing an infallible and official plot summary.
As I stated before WP:A is Wikipedia’s most important policy, as it allows users to remove unverifiable information, or delete articles without verifiable and encyclopedic content. Without third-party references, all the Re articles I spent the weekend working on can, and will be deleted. I have justified the use of the these references with respect to WP:A, WP:EL, WP:RS, and WP:V. Simply removing these links for the sake you “feel” they do not belong on Wikipedia because they seem unencyolpedic is not really a feasible rationale – ask user:Tecmobowl, who was banned twice for doing so. --ShadowJester07 ► Talk 00:31, 21 January 2008 (UTC)
The links state that one is not allowed to directly copy its content onto other sites; it does not directly state that one is allowed to post links to it on the internet, or other websites. What is the difference between the section I added and the reference/notes section of Rex Grossman#References, which also contains several articles and webpages? Both sections are being used to make sure their respected articles stay fair with WP:A and WP:V. --ShadowJester07 ► Talk 00:53, 21 January 2008 (UTC)
Once again, do you have a specific policy that explicitly states what I'm doing is wrong? If you cannot come up with anything, I'm going to re-add the content, and take this up with WP:AIN if anything else 'comes up'. --ShadowJester07 ► Talk 01:09, 21 January 2008 (UTC)
As I stated for the fifth time, the links are solely being used to verify information. The five policies I previously listed support their inclusion, whereas your removal of them can be seen as vandalism, similarly to the user:Tecmobowl incident. --ShadowJester07 ► Talk 01:23, 21 January 2008 (UTC)

Goon Moon

Umm thanx for the myspace bulletin, just what is goon moon? I have never heard of them, are they the band Twiggy left after rejoining Marilyn Manson?Mutlee (talk) 15:19, 25 January 2008 (UTC)

3RR

Regarding your question in an edit summary on Lyn Z, it does not count with the removal of obvious vandalism. With the birth date thing, there isn't actually a reliable source cited- perhaps if you did that, it would deter the IPs a little. I don't think changing the birth date (unless it is changing it to 1412 or something) counts as vandalism- we will have to assume good faith and call it a content dispute, especially where 3RR is concerned. J Milburn (talk) 11:50, 26 January 2008 (UTC)

Perhaps, I'm not sure. There does seem to be an awful lot of dispute over her date of brith- if you find a reliable source and cite it, then we can count any changes as vandalism, I reckon. J Milburn (talk) 15:51, 26 January 2008 (UTC)

Whoops

I guess I should read things like WP:3RR, then I'd know how things work, I also guess it might help with my editing of Wikipedia, not that I'm gtting more into it!?  Doktor  Wilhelm  23:08, 26 January 2008 (UTC)

Assessments for the Sega Project

Hi. I saw on the assessment department page that you expressed discontent at the temporary copy of the WP:VG/A page there. As a member of the Sega Project, I have fixed the page and made it new, and could use your help with some of the article assessments now if you've got time. The page is still the same old link, but there's a new shortcut to it named WP:SEGA/A. If you could help me make this assessment department a success, that would be great. Gaogier also approves of the new page. Redphoenix526 (talk) 21:33, 31 January 2008 (UTC)

A tag has been placed on Image:Doktor Wilhelm.jpg, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done for the following reason:

Wikipedia is not a blog, do not upload images of yourself or friends that are not for use in articles

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not meet basic Wikipedia criteria may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as an appropriate article, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is appropriate, you may contest the tagging. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm its subject's notability under the guidelines.

  • Well, the policy allows active users to put a reasonable amount of personal material on user pages; indeed some users have uploaded their photos on Wikipedia and this is also generally tolerated (as long as the photo is under a free license and is actually used in user space). Now if you genuinely don't want your photo to be used on Wikipedia any more, you can mark it for deletion by placing the {{db-author}} tag on its description page. - Mike Rosoft (talk) 11:59, 8 February 2008 (UTC)

I suspect that these are the same person

{{helpme}} Two diffrent editors and a ISP number have all vandalised my user page in close sucession, I have a feeling that they may in fact be one person due to the wording/timing of the vandalism and the original set up of editors user pages and talk pages, the users are Special:Contributions/ConjurusRex, Special:Contributions/PerilSpellbinder & Special:Contributions/86.129.174.152. I have looked for a way to flag this up, but everything seems to be for admin to report cases? So I was wondering if there's anything I can do? Even just so that someone may look out for any old/further suspicious vandalism by the 'two editors'? Sorry if I'm causing trouble!  Doktor  Wilhelm  03:48, 8 February 2008 (UTC)

Try Wikipedia:Suspected sock puppets. I hope this helps, if you have anymore questions feel free to ask me on my talkpage.--Sunny910910 (talk|Contributions) 03:55, 8 February 2008 (UTC)
Alternately, you could have reported them at one of the administrators' noticeboards, such as intervention against vandalism or (if some discussion is needed) incidents; that might have resulted in a swifter response. That said, I have blocked ConjurusRex for a month for vandalism, trolling, and sockpuppetry (he seems to have made some useful edits, so I am being lenient), and PerilSpellbinder permanently as a vandal account. - Mike Rosoft (talk) 11:36, 8 February 2008 (UTC)

WP:SEGA

Hey, Doktor Wilhelm. I'm sure you've seen by now that Gaogier's been blocked indefinitely. With that, I wanted to discuss with you where we should take the project in his absence. I've seen the visual changes, and they look sharp, though we really need to link those red links somewhere. I had a discussion with Gaogier before he was blocked, and it sounded like the two of you had some type of fallout? It looks pretty bad seeing what's above. Anyway, he wanted to kick you off the project if he could have, and I think that's just plain overreacting on his part. You've contributed so much to the project that I would like to work with you to improve it. I'm keeping up with the Assessment Department pretty well, as I assessed about 75 of those articles and we haven't had an unassessed one in a while. I'm not experienced with templates, though, so the visual designs are completely your changes for now, unless you've got some suggestions that you want to run by me first. Thanks for your time, and I look forward to improving WikiProject Sega with you in the future. Redphoenix526 (talk) 18:11, 13 February 2008 (UTC)

Nothing really comes to mind for being a part of the header except that we should have links to all of the project's pages. Gaogier actually had a set of his templates designed in blue and white, which he was using for Wikipedia:WikiProject Microsoft. He said he had no plans to use it at The Sega Project, though, so I'm not sure exactly what he was thinking.
Also, I can't believe I'm about to say this, but I think TTN might be right about one thing: it would be a good idea to start up a Sonic Wiki and link it to the project. The problem is that I have absolutely no clue how to go about this or even if I could run it. I'll just take the idea and archive it, and we'll consider it later. Anyway, thanks for the help!

Looks really good, but you missed the bar that said "WikiProject Square Enix" on the left panel. I've fixed it, though. I really like the look, but we do need to change it up a bit so we don't look exactly like WikiProject Square Enix. Redphoenix526 (talk) 20:55, 13 February 2008 (UTC)

Hey, I've got something for you

I think you've really helped The Sega Project, and for that, I want to award you this new award:

The Sega Project Honorable Mention

To Doktor Wilhelm for all your help improving The Sega Project. We hope to see you as a great member of the project.

Well, it's my pleasure to award you it. We'll come up with a formal nomination for the actual Award (the one I have from Gaogier) later on, but I thought we really needed this honorable mention, and you definitely deserve it! Also, I'm going to change the background color of the invitation just to differentiate it from the award. Might I also recommend you put this on your userpage; wear it with pride!

Thanks for your heads up

Thank you for coming directly to me. I think I have everything covered but if this sort of disruption and sock puppetry rears its ugly head again let me know directly. Best wishes--VS talk 04:58, 14 February 2008 (UTC)
