[edit] Template- Belgian King??
Why did u make this template, there was a much better one there before that was standard for all monarchs, and much more accurate. And his heir apparent is not Duke Philipe it is Prince Philippe, Duke of Brabant, there is a difference. Mac Domhnaill 02:18, 1 December 2005 (UTC)
- When I visited those articles there was no infobox template, I did not know the existence of a generic template, furthermore I think it looks fine :)
- Prince Philippe, Duke of Brabant is too long of a title to fit in the info box. I merely shortened it to Duke Philipe you can change it to whatever you feel is more accurate but please if you can try to make it short so it looks nice :) -- Cat chi? 12:19, 1 December 2005 (UTC)
I apologize if I may have seemed rude. There had been a template there, but apparently it was not you who removed it. Thank-you Mac Domhnaill 23:32, 1 December 2005 (UTC)
- Thats alright, so is it better now? All sorted? The Belgian king articles were a mess due to misaligned infoboxes... :( -- Cat chi? 10:41, 2 December 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Slovenian Armed Forces's Military Ranks Insignias
As you're author of these insignias on :commons, could you also done CO's and Generals ranks (so far I found only Soldier's and NCO's ranks - I collected them here). You could find CO's and General's insignia on Slovene insignia. If you have already done them, could you direct me to them? Regards, --Klemen Kocjancic 12:02, 1 December 2005 (UTC)
- Oh that’s easy, I meant to move those images to commons, if you can do that for me you will make me very happy, its just too much work for me :)
- Images are available in Ranks and insignia of NATO, I have only completed "Army Officer" and "Army Enlisted", I intend to do air force, navy, and others sometime.
- There is a naming convention you should use (trust me this makes things easy on the long run) to rename the images so they all are standard named. The convention for officers is xx-Army-OF#.gif where xx is the country code and # is the NATO code. Ex: Image:US-Army-OF9.gif. Enlisted follow this: Image:US-Army-OR9a.gif -- Cat chi? 12:15, 1 December 2005 (UTC)
Well, SAF uses one set of insignia, so you have one Armed Force completed ;). I'll moved them according to others, you've already move (on licence and so one). Regards, --Klemen Kocjancic 12:23, 1 December 2005 (UTC)
So, what do you think? Is it OK? Regards, --Klemen Kocjancic 12:39, 1 December 2005 (UTC)
- Cute, i really like it however you may want to use tables instead of galleries, bah Ill fix it :) -- Cat chi? 12:43, 1 December 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Yet another award from Dynamo_ace!
 |
|
An Award |
| For another massive set of new Ah!My goddess! contributions across multiple pages. I, Dynamo_ace, award you the Tireless Contributor Barnstar Award |
And no doubt more of this is on the way! -Dynamo_ace Talk
- Oh, I was only beginning my edit storm. :) -- Cat chi? 17:53, 1 December 2005 (UTC)
-
- Can you wikify the pages I create on List of Oh My Goddess episodes? I have too many pages to create :) -- Cat chi? 18:03, 1 December 2005 (UTC)
- I'd be glad to wikify the page- mind telling me what needs attention..? I know I should make some character pages...-MegamanZero 20:32 1,December 2005 (UTC)
I did try to include a section showing what character refers another character as (For example, Belldandy refers Keiichi as Keiichi-san) but it was removed for being non-encyclopedic. -Dynamo_ace Talk
- It is encyclopedic if you explain its something to do with the japaneese culture. -san is for respected, -sama is for nobility and gods goddesses etc.. -- Cat chi? 10:36, 2 December 2005 (UTC)
You have both been blocked for twelve hours, subject to review (see WP:AN/I).
- This is a copy of comments I've made on the talk pages of your other mentors'
Cool Cat has recently engaged in very aggressive, unprovoked attacks on Karl Meier, including blindly reverting the latter's edits on two Kurd-related articles--on which Cool Cat has not previously edited for over two months.
He and Karl Meier have both edit warred on Kurdistan, and I've just blocked both for twelve hours. Cool Cat's edits on Kurdistan, without the aggressive behavior, would be borderline, but in the circumstances I'm inclined to the view that the problems are unlikely to be resolved because Cool Cat will not improve his behavior. I think we should consider banning him from editing any articles related to Turkey or the Kurds for two weeks. Please see the talk page of the mentorship (the link in the subject header of this section). --Tony Sidaway|Talk 21:08, 2 December 2005 (UTC)
- Oh I read them alright. Sorry I cant reply to you on your talk page. If you haven’t noticed I have walked away from that revert war. Karl is know for his disruptive revert wars, I'd like to remind you that he also failed to make an effort to use discussion properly aside from declaring me random titles similar to his behavior on his stalking spree which I find highly uncivil. Please have an objective approach. I do not like how this is going.
- Because of them I have suffered greatly and apparently am still suffering. 5 out of 5 blocks I received on wikipedia were requested by Karl, The 6th and current block is a result of Karls actions as well. Why am I the only person bothered by this fact? Davenbelle's recent behaviour should also be examined (He actually restarted opposing me on straw polls). -- Cat chi? 21:16, 2 December 2005 (UTC)
I warned you both and yet you both ignored me and resumed edit warring, which isn't good for Wikipedia. I'm giving Wikipedia a twelve-hour rest from you both. I've subjected the case to review on WP:AN/I.
Being able to edit articles on very volatile subjects means knowing how to deal with very disruptive behavior by other editors without making matters worse. You haven't yet acquired that skill. If we do decide to ban you, it will be for a short period, and will be solely in the interests of Wikipedia. We won't be saying that your input isn't acceptable, but that your actions aren't sufficiently sensitive to the circumstances. --Tony Sidaway|Talk 21:44, 2 December 2005 (UTC)
- I think I was doing fine. Again (like it has always been) Karl is interfering with my edits on a volatile article. I could be viewed as pushing Kurdish pov there as far as an average Turkish nationalist is concerned. I have made references to US history on why several sections don’t belong to the article, the actual discussion have recently started a ban of me from that article will complicate matters. Karl is not a part of that discussion see his comments. If I made such comments I would be eaten alive on #wikipedia for months. -- Cat chi? 21:49, 2 December 2005 (UTC)
- I have asked redwolf24 to mediate this one (prior to being blocked), if he agrees I think I can manage this (Kurdistan). No? -- Cat chi? 21:51, 2 December 2005 (UTC)
[edit] IRC vandalism script
Could you please add me to wherever I need to be added to have Computer2 recognise me as an administrator, not just a whitelisted user? Thanks. Harro5 03:23, 3 December 2005 (UTC)
- Done -- Cat chi? 18:59, 3 December 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Baj insignia
Image:Baj1.png, Image:Baj2.png, Image:Baj3.png, Image:Baj4.png, Image:Baj5.png, Image:Baj6.png, Image:Baj7.png, Image:Baj8.png, Image:Baj9.png
Could you please give you sources and categorize these images properly? --Saperaud 05:46, 3 December 2005 (UTC)
- Sure. See: Comparative ranks and insignia of Star Trek -- Cat chi? 18:59, 3 December 2005 (UTC)
I see you had a bit of trouble with Karl Meier on Kurdistan. After Karl Meier telling you were doing the wrong thing you should of asked someone else for their opinion and gotten them to change it if they thought that it should of been changed. Put on the talk page a link to the difference page of how you think it should be and see what people think and ask for someone to change it if they agree. Please stop going on so many wiki breaks, people want to speak to you with suggestions for the bot and other things (positive things). --Adam1213 Talk + 12:08, 3 December 2005 (UTC)
[edit] About Oh! My Goddess....
...I've looked at the pages, and the first step to making them conform to a higher quality would be making info boxes, stating their names, ages, elemental affinity, etc. I've drawn out a prototype below:
Species: (Human, Goddess, sprit, etc.)
Gender:
Dimension: 3rd (Humans), 10th (goddesses and gods)
Measurements:
Age:
Birthday:
Height:
Weight:
Hair color:
Eye Color:
Elemental Affinity: (Fire, Earth, wind, etc.)
Angel(s):
First appearance:
Voice actor:
What do you think..? If you agree, I'll make it and insert in into the articles, as well as dividing the information into subsections for easier reference. -MegamanZero 15:06 3,December 2005 (UTC)
- Doable. I would like that, however "Age" will be a controversial thing since we know Urd is several hundred thousand years old although time flows differently in heaven, one second there could be several hundred years here. :) -- Cat chi? 18:59, 3 December 2005 (UTC)
- Great to see your keyboard problem is over with, and nice to have you back. Actually, she's only in her late twenties. =) Furthermore, I've made the templates, which can be found here. Tell me what you think. Also, You didn't reply to [my last comment above. Thanks. -MegamanZero 21:36 3,December 2005 (UTC)
-
- I created a more generic Template:Oh My Goddess Infobox based on your code. Try applying it to Belldandy. :) -- Cat chi? 20:01, 3 December 2005 (UTC)
- Okay. I'll do just that. -MegamanZero 22:30 3,Decmber 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Signature
Can you add a talk page link to your sig? :) -- Cat chi? 20:03, 3 December 2005 (UTC)
- Be my guest. And, if I may be so kind to inquire, can you show me how to customize my username..? I was thinking of making the Zero part in MegamanZero red colored text. :) -MegamanZero 22:27 3,Decmeber 2005 (UTC)
-
- OK click "preferences" and mark "raw signatures" checkbox then replace the signature field with something like this: [[User:MegamanZero|MegamanZero]] [[User Talk:MegamanZero|Talk]] I'll leave the creativity bit to you :) -- Cat chi? 20:22, 3 December 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Progress
Here's what I got so far:
- Belldandy
- Urd
- Skuld
- Peorth (still doing analysis)
....and I'll finish everyone else up sooner or later.-MegamanZero 1:12 4,December 2005 (UTC)
- Thanks, I am reprocessing your work and making minor adjustments here and there, see: Belldandy ;) -- Cat chi? 23:00, 3 December 2005 (UTC)
- Yes, I saw that. Well, fuck me then. :) That's very nice-looking. Mind doing that to the other articles too..? I'm busy with research on Peorth.-MegamanZero 1:19 4,Decmber 2005 (UTC)
- Why dont you tag along on irc? Makes life more bearable when wikipedia is down. :) -- Cat chi? 00:07, 4 December 2005 (UTC)
- How do I do that..?-MegamanZero 2:26 4,December 2005 (UTC)
- Oh, get an irc client and go to server irc.freenode.net and join #wikipedia :) -- Cat chi? 00:27, 4 December 2005 (UTC)
- I'm have IRC now, but I'm having a hell of a time finding you on a server. Could you be more specific..? With server and location info, I mean.-MegamanZero 3:26 4,December 2005 (UTC)
[edit] That damn IRC
- Hmmm....This is being very difficult...I do not see a way out of it...I still can't find it -could I request you give me directions starting form after one pushes the file tab in the upper left-hand corner and then give me instructions from there..?-MegamanZero 3:57 4,December 2005 (UTC)
-
- Pass through all menus till you reach the status bar.
- Type "/server irc.freenode.net" on the text box without the " "
- Once logged in (you may need to change nicks) type "/join #wikipedia"
- -- Cat chi? 01:50, 4 December 2005 (UTC)
[edit] WTF...?!
Are you serious...? That's like a bazillion edits all in the course of five minutes. Try using the "preview" button, pal.-MegamanZero 14:28 4,December 2005 (UTC)
- The nature of the edits are quite different. in total about 6000+ bytes were removed wikipedia, thanks to the usage of the template. I generally make many large edits :) (and yes I do use preview) -- Cat chi? 12:26, 4 December 2005 (UTC)
- I just found it somewhat humorous; after all, they were all done in succession. :) -MegamanZero 14:42 4,December 2005 (UTC)
- Heh. You should have seen me during my last edit storm :P. -- Cat chi? 12:31, 4 December 2005 (UTC)
I added the template but have no idea where you are getting data regarding them :) so I'll let you fill in the blanks.
Also couldn’t manage to IRC? I can help you more but I have no idea what’s keeping you :) -- Cat chi? 14:34, 4 December 2005 (UTC)
- Consider them done. As for IRC, its sooo damn confusing... How about this..? Just give me detailed step-by-step instructions on how to find your server, etc. starting from when a person opens up the program.-MegamanZero 16:52 4,December 2005 (UTC)
May I ask what was wrong before? [1]. Hope that didn't happen in too many places. -Mysekurity (have you seen this?) 15:11, 4 December 2005 (UTC)
- No I noticed it quickly, however never bothered to fix the damage :) -- Cat chi? 22:54, 4 December 2005 (UTC)
Thanks for deleting those images. May I ask a favor? Can you please "rename" some of the images that appear on this page? The ones under Season 1 section. I was trying to get them all to follow the Oh My Goddess 1x??.png pattern. -- Cat chi? 02:07, 5 December 2005 (UTC)
- I don't think images can be renamed. You might just have to upload them and get the old ones speedily deleted :( Cheers. Enochlau 02:10, 5 December 2005 (UTC)
- I know that thats why it was in quotes :P -- Cat chi? 10:06, 5 December 2005 (UTC)
[edit] "Editcountism"
Cool cat, My vote on Luigi30's RfA has nothing to do with how many edits he has. I personally wouldn't care if he had half the edits that he has. I really wouldn't. What concerns me is a very significant lack of involvement in the project. There are a broad spectrum of people who are involved in Wikipedia. Some are serious wikiholics, like User:BD2412. Some barely contribute, making just an edit here or there every few months or so. Outside of the users who edit once or twice and disappear, everyone is somewhere along that spectrum. A number of people, myself included, feel that being very close to the low activity end of the spectrum is bad for an admin. There are a number of reasons for this.
Emblematic of one of those reasons; Luigi, in response to critics of his low activity level, has had a surge today in activity. But, in at least two instances he has not followed procedure. He placed a copyright violation notice on Tarrytown Music Hall ([2]), but did not place a notice regarding the copyvio at Wikipedia:Copyright problems/2005 December 5, per procedure. This also happened at Anna Rosmus ([3]). An active contributor to Wikipedia would most likely not have made this error. Luigi30 in these instances is not demonstrating knowledge of procedure nor due diligence in properly executing procedure. This to me shows the marks of an inexperienced editor. This has nothing to do with how many edits he has; it has to do with his dedication, experience, and knowledge of current policy and procedure.
Personally, I think Luigi30 is very, very dedicated to IRC but he lacks dedication to Wikipedia. We're not building an IRC channel. That's not our purpose. Our purpose here is building an encyclopedia. His statements that he does not have the time to contribute much on Wikipedia right now are simply false. He did in fact make more than 1900 comments on IRC over the last three weeks, while making just 14 edits over the same 3 weeks to Wikipedia. He most definitely does have the time but, either passively or actively, has made a choice not to contribute to Wikipedia very much at all, and instead focus his time on the IRC channel. I don't have any problem with someone being on the IRC channel. But, to use school taking up his time as an excuse while being highly active on IRC is simply fallacious.
If Luigi30 spent a fraction of the time he spends on IRC learning Wikipedia policy/procedure and demonstrated proper execution of same, I probably wouldn't have any problem supporting him. But, right now, he's simply proving the point that his activity level is problematic. This isn't "RfA cult"ism or "editcountism".
Thanks for your attention, --Durin 16:09, 5 December 2005 (UTC)
- And to head off criticism from other vectors; I'm not trying to sway your vote in any respect. I'm explaining my vote, and why I feel it has valid basis. I don't care how you vote. I vote in good conscience, and do not make votes lightly. That's all I was trying to convey to you. --Durin 16:14, 5 December 2005 (UTC)
- And an admin deleted images I uploaded (for suspected copyright infringement which was not the case) and the templates they appeared on without bothering to list it on the copy vio page. People make mistakes regardless of if they are admins or not. Also how do you expect him to do admin work without admin powers?
- Don't underestimate the IRC, several of the tools available on IRC such as my vandal detection bot and NullC's bot make admins job easier. RC patrolling without admin powers is like attempting to glide towards the wind. You can only go so much...
- Besides even hyperactive people such as myself are not adminised so that shouldn't be a criteria. -- Cat chi? 16:20, 5 December 2005 (UTC)
- I'm not suggesting that hyperactivity is a criteria for being an admin. Rather, the lack of knowledge of Wikipedia policy (as Luigi30 demonstrated today) is a reason against being an admin. People, including admins, make mistakes all the time. It's the nature of being human. For example, 1 out of every 400 keystrokes you make (on average) will be an error that you do not detect. Admin candidates need to be evaluated based on the information at hand. A low level of activity is, to some people, a demonstration of lack of ability and/or knowledge and/or dedication. To some, missing one or more of these qualities is a disqualifying factor for an RfA. I made my vote Luigi30's nom on low activity because of this, and I've been borne out by his errors today (I've found a third similar error as well). Luigi30 doesn't need admin powers to place copyvio notices in appropriate places. I do not in any respect discount the value that IRC does contribute to Wikipedia. It can be tremendously helpful.
- I did not take your comments personally. Frankly, I find the ongoing hatred of me on IRC hysterical. I periodically review the logs and find it amusing reading. Some weeks back, I allowed myself to get very upset about a situation here, but now I let such criticisms roll off of me, and do not take them personally. Your comments were very mild in comparison. I just wanted to explain my vote to you. --Durin 16:46, 5 December 2005 (UTC)
- I am not aware of such hatred. I would find such hatred disruptive. You are a fine wikipedia editor. However do realise several people on IRC enjoy upsetting others. That reminds me, I should have xeeded 15,000 edits. Is it possible for you to update the graph? :)
- Dont let people on IRC upset you remotely. Try tagging along on the RC patrol chan if you really want to entertain self :) -- Cat chi? 16:51, 5 December 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Archive, why did this move here? I mean the edit box?
* 204.218.244.11 (talk • contribs • page moves • block user • block log) -- User has been banned 7 other times. Is now back online vandelizing other articles, stating blatant lies; Hubble Telescope, Pamela Anderson and other, see talk page, which he/she seems to revert and impersonate an admin. JedOs  08:47, 5 December 2005 (UTC)
- I see. This has been the user that has been blatantly vandalising at my school. If its any corelation, He's the reason why I've been blocked on several occasions when I try to make (constructive) edits. I wish there were a way to stop him so that editors like myself could continue to edit in good faith without being blocked.... May I make a suggestion..? How about I add all his "contribution" pages to my watchlist..? That way I can revert his vandalising and other editors can continue to edit in good faith without being blocked. -MegamanZero 22:49 5,Deacember 2005 (UTC)
Sounds like a very good way of doing something constructive about the vandalism. Also you could talk to Cool Cat, he may be able to help you to track vandalism from that IP, because he has a vandalbot written to run on mirc. --Tony Sidaway|Talk 21:21, 5 December 2005 (UTC)
- Sounds like a plan; I'll talk to Cool Cat concerning your bot advice.-MegamanZero 0:34 5,December 2005 (UTC)
- That IP is blacklisted. Any edit coming from that ip will be monitored very closely at #wikipedia-en-vandalism thank you for the notice but we were already watching him. If you could IRC things would be much easier. (Try ircing from home, your school might have disabled/blocked irc. -- Cat chi? 02:10, 6 December 2005 (UTC)
- School ips like all shared ips breed vandalism cleaning up your schools mess is nice and quite a noble move. However only thing I can offer is the irc bot which requires you to be on irc :P -- Cat chi? 02:10, 6 December 2005 (UTC)
- You could use CDVF but I do not know how it works. -- Cat chi? 02:10, 6 December 2005 (UTC)
I took the initiative...., I was wondering if you wanted to take a gander at how I'm doing...-MegamanZero 3:42 6,December 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Your bot
Hi Cool Cat, would it be possible for your IRC bot to respond to certain strings of text the edit summary field? Although most vandals don't leave an edit summary, it would be nice if we could have the bot report edits that have a stuff like "test4" in the edit summary, or a 'code' we agree upon, like "**", that non-admins can add to an edit summary to get admin attention quickly. (if I remember correctly this was originally one of Doc Glasgow's ideas, but it was never followed up on). Ideally, it would be nice to be able to add stuff to it ourselves (like we can with the commands bl and wl add, and cvp, etc), but even a short, preprogrammed list would be helpful. Well, just see what you can do with it, whenever you feel like it. And thanks for all you efforts, your bot really is cool! :-) --JoanneB 13:10, 6 December 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Oh My Goddess! (OVA)
I have added all the plot details I intended to included for Oh My Goddess! (OVA): if you have any comments or objections on these, please let me know. I can now add to your individual episode pages, though I was wondering if you had any particular format in mind for this, or could direct me to a similar, albeit more complete, article, where I could see how one of this kind should be formatted. Thanks! Elric of Grans 01:36, 7 December 2005 (UTC)
- Oh I already prepared the format for you :) Just edit below the spoiler tag and you should be fine :) -- Cat chi? 01:40, 7 December 2005 (UTC)
- Thanks! I have just added content to Moonlight And Cherry Blossoms: if you like the way I have done it, I can the other four over the next two days. I may expand on this at some later date too, though the plot section should remain relatively static. Elric of Grans 04:10, 7 December 2005 (UTC)
- Great job, I am eager to see the reviews for other episodes. You may want to never mention trivia for future episodes instead mention trivia on the future episode (in context). Something like "Keiichi's huntch on episode 1 was because of his previous encounter when they were younger." Etc... -- Cat chi? 19:18, 7 December 2005 (UTC)
- Thanks. That is not a bad idea with the trivia, but all of it only applies in the final episode, so it would mean it all piles into one article, rather than being spread out over the series. I am thinking more along the lines of `make sure you do not miss' than `if you saw it, then this is why'. Elric of Grans 22:15, 7 December 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Are you accusing ME of vandalism?
Striver took my comments out of context and reorganized them. I tried to revert to a version before he started editing me. If I omitted any of his comments, it was inadvertent. Please ask HIM not to unilaterally reorganize other people's comments (as he has done previously), don't call me a vandal. Zora 01:37, 7 December 2005 (UTC)
- You removed over 2000 bytes, I do not care about the details. You are being no better than an average vandal with your careless editing. Also two wrongs don’t make a right. Please try not to make large removals. Thanks. -- Cat chi? 01:40, 7 December 2005 (UTC)
Well, will YOU please restore the article? Or stop Striver? He feels that he has been vindicated and is re-arranging the talk page again. Zora 03:02, 7 December 2005 (UTC)
- Aargh, it's worse than just rearranging my comments. Apparently he has decided to reorganize all the older entries on the talk page and move them into Striver-created archives by subject. Zora 03:21, 7 December 2005 (UTC)
-
- I really don’t like this. I'll investigate this. -- Cat chi? 14:30, 7 December 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Re: Commons: bajoran ranks
It is pd because drawing them takes little effort and hence a copyright cannot apply. This is like copyrighting starfleet pips which are basically golden circles. Too simple to copyright. Source will be myself. I drew them but I wouldn’t be surprised identical images appear on the web as like I said they are to simple of a design. -- Cat chi? 18:34, 6 December 2005 (UTC)
I created Category:Star Trek as you requested. -- Cat chi? 18:48, 6 December 2005 (UTC)
Anything else I can do for you? -- Cat chi? 18:57, 6 December 2005 (UTC)

Please vote at this AFD. It was relisted due to a lack of votes. I would like to close this sometime. Thank you.Voice of AllT|@|ESP 17:10, 8 December 2005 (UTC

[edit] What's up?
- This is Aaron (used to be c2aaron). Had to get a new username. I'm not in Lincoln Place anymore. So, I got a new IP.
- Nice to meet you. Stick around, join us. :)-MegamanZero 23:32, 8 December 2005 (UTC)
- Welcome back. Glad to see you sticking around. -- Cat chi? 11:20, 9 December 2005 (UTC)
Your bot has stopped working and I have a really old version where can I get the new one and can you restart yours and add in something so that if in 5 mins the amount of suspected vandalism has not changed it will respond to computer restart (checking that you said its nickname) --Adam1213 Talk + 04:41, 9 December 2005 (UTC)
- I rebooted the bot, although I suspect ıt started working prior. I'll add that to the things to do. Realise that wikipedia does die and when that happens I do not want the bot to restart. So this will be some hard core programming. -- Cat chi? 11:25, 9 December 2005 (UTC)
[edit] "I am not a heavenly creature, please assist"
Remember found days of wiki-stalking and harassment..? Thought you might like to know I got some of my own...(Here and Here) :) -MegamanZero 18:31, 9 December 2005 (UTC)
- Oh I have been continuously stalked since April or perhaps further back... Tonigaku "How about you stop being a jackass?" is a clear violation of WP:NPA and WP:CIVIL, I'd post it on WP:ANB/I without delay. -- Cat chi? 00:45, 10 December 2005 (UTC)
- I have no tolerance to stalking. Whatever you do, do not violate any of wikipedias policies. Don’t leave them any room to make random noise and confuse arbcom as stalking generally goes on forever. So long as you play by the rules I will do everything im my power to help you. Ie consider yourself under my wing unless you play with matches ;). -- Cat chi? 00:47, 10 December 2005 (UTC)
- Thanks Cool Cat. I'm not quite that bold though; I won't violate any policies just to get back at a person. I did, however, add both TheOgry and K Lantis to the list of WP:NOOB, though. BTW, what did you think of my responses in each of those situations..? -MegamanZero 07:54, 10 December 2005 (UTC)
- It is "OK", some people might complain but not much. I would ignore his comments with any level of incivility, just notify admins on the notice board. Or you may want to RfC him although it may be a bit premature for that atm. -- Cat chi? 11:09, 10 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Ranks of Slovenian Armed Forces
If you're willing, I would like to ask you to make a naval rank insignias of Slovenian Armed Forces. I could use the official images, but they aren't so good as yours (see here). Regards, --Klemen Kocjancic 14:10, 10 December 2005 (UTC)
- I will do that, however I want to do all airforce and navy insignias in the process :) You may like Ranks and insignia of NATO -- Cat chi? 03:59, 11 December 2005 (UTC)

Im terribly sorry

[edit] Images
Hi - Regarding the images you're moving to the Commons, the versions remaining on Wikipedia can't be speedy deleted. According to WP:CSD, "Redundant. An image which is a redundant copy, in the same image file format and same or lower resolution, of something else on Wikipedia. This does not apply to images duplicated on Wikimedia Commons, because of licence issues; these should be tagged with {{NowCommons|Image:newname.ext}} instead." Please use that tag instead. Thanks! -SCEhardT 15:56, 11 December 2005 (UTC)
- Well, the images I moved are identical with same file format. I just renamed them sligtly so they follow the Ranks and insignia of NATO armies officers format. Rank insignias cannot be copyrighted, doing so violates international law starting with Geneva convention (combatant identification). I have to deal with over several thousand images here so please assist as formalities are overstressfull, I do not want to waste time nicely listing several thousand images on IFD. -- Cat chi? 16:08, 11 December 2005 (UTC)
- I was certainly not suggesting that you do that :-) At one point both CSD and IFD said that 'NowCommons' images should not be deleted. Now the pages conflict, with the IFD page saying that they can in fact be deleted. I'll try to figure this out. -SCEhardT 16:15, 11 December 2005 (UTC)
- Looking at Wikipedia talk:Moving images to the Commons, it looks like deleting the image IF it is Public Domain is fine. So disregard what I said earlier, except you might want to use a tag like {{db|Now in Commons - Publc Domain images are deletable in this case per [[Wikipedia talk:Moving images to the Commons]]}} to avoid confusion. -SCEhardT 16:28, 11 December 2005 (UTC)
- Speaking of which, Cool Cat, why does fruit snack redirect to fruit..? They are two different things.-MegamanZero 16:02, 11 December 2005 (UTC)
- Could you answer the question, please..? :)-MegamanZero 16:18, 11 December 2005 (UTC)
-
- Never mind...it seems someone made an article for it. My mistake; it was a redirect earlier today...-MegamanZero 16:20, 11 December 2005 (UTC)
[edit] A few things thrown your way
- I revamped my userpage: Here
- I settled my differences with K-Lantis in a constructive manner: Here
- I figured out that redirects on wikipedia can be a very bad and sick thing.
- I've learned more and more how to be a better candidate for adminship.
- Question: Why do you have mentors..? You are a very well-behaved individual..
- I added templates to Hild, The Almighty, and Welsper.
I was hoping you could respond to all these and tell me your opinions. Thanks! -MegamanZero 21:20, 11 December 2005 (UTC)
-
- Nice, I see you copied bits from my userpage, I am honored however you may want to review what you have been accused. :)
- Being able to resolve disputes without involving many bodies of dispute resolution is an admirable talent which admin candidates are expected to have. That is a great plus for you.
- Redirects can be annoying. In the past wikipedia did not have a "Search" button so we were forced to place multiple redirects for basically every possible reference for a given topic. Now with search redirects aren’t all that important.
- Do not worry about adminship, when certain people think you can survive an RfA they will ask if you would like to be a candidate. This does not mean one will immediately be an admin but its more likely that way. Do not feel stressed if your RfAs do fail, I have two failed RfAs and hence I do not feel Ill ever be an admin soon if ever. That’s just how it is.
- I have mentors because Arbcom decided that I needed mentorship. It was one of the decisions arbcom ruled on the arbcom hearing. It is one of the more famous and complicated hearings arbcom recently processed. I am not bothered by this ruling at all, I seek guidance on issues I am not certain what course of action to take rather than risk a disaster. Two of my mentors are people I frequently directed questions at. It is somewhat formal now. The third person I knew about though he is the quiet kind, you know... I also ask for guidance from tens of other users on IRC.
- Nice job, I modified some with some info. Thanks. I was going to do that but then again I really am a very lazy.
-
- Anything else I can do for you? ^.^ -- Cat chi? 22:59, 11 December 2005 (UTC)
- Yes, just one more thing- could you take a look at the this and tell me your opinion? I think its nice to have lots of wiki-contacts.-MegamanZero 23:10, 11 December 2005 (UTC)
- Yup. Looks nice. Its hard to keep track of people at times. I try my contact box with symbols, easier for me and looks better. For your case, you may want to use colors to make it look neet :) -- Cat chi? 23:39, 11 December 2005 (UTC)
I have added all the plot details I intended to included for Oh My Goddess! (OVA): if you have any comments or objections on these, please let me know. I can now add to your individual episode pages, though I was wondering if you had any particular format in mind for this, or could direct me to a similar, albeit more complete, article, where I could see how one of this kind should be formatted. Thanks! Elric of Grans 01:36, 7 December 2005 (UTC)
- Oh I already prepared the format for you :) Just edit below the spoiler tag and you should be fine :) -- Cat chi? 01:40, 7 December 2005 (UTC)
- Thanks! I have just added content to Moonlight And Cherry Blossoms: if you like the way I have done it, I can the other four over the next two days. I may expand on this at some later date too, though the plot section should remain relatively static. Elric of Grans 04:10, 7 December 2005 (UTC)
- Great job, I am eager to see the reviews for other episodes. You may want to never mention trivia for future episodes instead mention trivia on the future episode (in context). Something like "Keiichi's huntch on episode 1 was because of his previous encounter when they were younger." Etc... -- Cat chi? 19:18, 7 December 2005 (UTC)
- Excellent job. IF we had like one or two screen caps per ova it would be perfect. :) -- Cat chi? 11:15, 11 December 2005 (UTC)
- I would like to provide some, but I only have old, low-res fansubs of the OVAs --- you cannot get it here. Elric of Grans 21:53, 11 December 2005 (UTC)
- On articles we would use images that are perhaps no larger than 300px. It is better than nothing. Do not tell me that the fansubs are worse than that >_< -- Cat chi? 22:38, 11 December 2005 (UTC)
- It is 352x240; fine for a thumbnail, but there would be no option of viewing it at a larger size. If that is OK, I can probably add them this week. Elric of Grans 22:44, 11 December 2005 (UTC)
- Should be ok, and anyone with better image quality can upload the better version of same picture. ;) -- Cat chi? 23:36, 11 December 2005 (UTC)

Yay! Now... subliminal message? Luigi30 (Ταλκ) 14:39, 12 December 2005 (UTC)
- Now I feel important. I went away for a day, and when I came back, CSD had 50 entries! I deleted 20 or so. How many barnstars is that worth? :P Luigi30 (Ταλκ) 15:22, 12 December 2005 (UTC)
- If you did clean up the rank insignias after me (which most are now in commons) that would be a deletion barnstar. Yes, this does sound like birbary, infact it is. :P -- Cat chi? 17:11, 12 December 2005 (UTC)
- Wouldn't that make me a deletionist? ;) Luigi30 (Ταλκ) 17:16, 12 December 2005 (UTC)
- Perhaps! :)-MegamanZero 17:17, 12 December 2005 (UTC)
- Where did you come from!? Luigi30 (Ταλκ) 17:29, 12 December 2005 (UTC)
- No deletionists (my usage of the word) are disruptive people trying to delete knowledge (hence are no better than blankers), this is merely a delete of duplicated images. :) -- Cat chi? 17:19, 12 December 2005 (UTC)
- Wait, isn't that the page with so many images that it single-handedly brought down the images server once? Luigi30 (Ταλκ) 17:28, 12 December 2005 (UTC)
- Actually, I speculated the image servers had gone down because I went mad one night and uploaded a mass amount of MegamanZero and Oh My Goddess images; for some reason it crashed after I was done... :)-MegamanZero 17:45, 12 December 2005 (UTC)
- Yea. I think so, my level of edits generally overstress the wikipedia servers. The problem actually was the complexity of the tables not number of images, however after the incident the page was broken into first 3 and then two (total of 6) pages.
- Tonikaku, I am trying to move images to commons, I already moved a large portion and the copies on en must go to wiki hell. I'd love to give you a list but you checking my history would be much easier. It should be among the past 500 edits and it is really hard to miss :) -- Cat chi? 18:44, 12 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Winged logo
Hi, Cool Cat. Photoshop is a graphic program, and doesn't take drawing too well. In any case, I have tried my best to draw your requirement, and if it is not good enough, maybe you ought to find someone who uses a vector program. — PM Poon 19:43, 12 December 2005 (UTC)
- It is great. However I ask for a few minor modifications if possible, please. Its my fault because I perhaps did not describe it well. Sorry for the extra hassle in advance :(
- Firstly the wings look great. The golden rigs are pointing in the wrong direction. Aside from that are perfect (see above comparasion).
- Also notice the small reddish rings.
- Aside from those minor points it is perfect.
- Thank you for your prompt response and efforts, honestly I wasn't expecting to hear from you for at least for a week :) -- Cat chi? 20:15, 12 December 2005 (UTC)
Hi Cool Cat, the original red is more like purple. However, this red seems to be too bright and contrasting. If you have any preference, please give me the hexadecimal color code and I shall change it accordingly. — PM Poon 13:40, 13 December 2005 (UTC)
- The color of #990099 (based on [4]) looks close enough. Actually now you mentioned the smaller rings, I noticed they arc a bit (just a tiny bit). If you can do that we will have absolute perfection :) -- Cat chi? 14:01, 13 December 2005 (UTC)
Revision uploaded as per your requirements. I was at first puzzled with the two smaller purple rings. Apparently, it is curved because of the slight angle away from the center. — PM Poon 17:01, 13 December 2005 (UTC)
- Yup. Thanks. Hmm... -- Cat chi? 20:07, 13 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Uploading images to wikipedia
Help, im having troble uploading images to wikipedia. Hamedog 06:11, 13 December 2005 (UTC)
- What kind of problems? Do realise wikipedia does not allow certain file formats such as .bmp because of the sake of harddrive space and bandwidth. Also if you simply rename a .jpg as .gif and attempt to upload to wikipedia, the servers will interpret the image as being "corrupt". If that's the case try resaving image on for example windows paint as a .png or .gif which should "fix" it. -- Cat chi? 14:13, 13 December 2005 (UTC)
- Thanks. Its working again but before I was trying to upload on Firefox it was saying "Alear, no document' after hitting submit. On internet explorer it was saying page cannot be displayed. It was kinda of odd. Hamedog 14:25, 13 December 2005 (UTC)
- That happens to all of us from time to time. When wikipedia servers are overloaded enough they rarely ignore some requests all together. It is a known bug I guess. We need better servers to compensate. :) -- Cat chi? 14:36, 13 December 2005 (UTC)

- The bot should fix itself. There is nothing I can do about it until I get to the bot on Friday. I will investigate why this happened (on Friday) and devise a way to fix it so it doesn't ever happen again. The bot should return to service on its own by that time though.
- Do you see the bot on irc.wikimedia.org in #en.wikipedia ? (I also have no access to IRC during weekdays) -- Cat chi? 14:54, 13 December 2005 (UTC)

Okay, looks like I'm hated...please look at my history, and note all the edits by User:TheOrgy are personal attacks.. What should I do...? Note I apologized to him on his userpage before this incident started, mind you. -_- -MegamanZero 15:19, 13 December 2005 (UTC)
- Here is how this is going to end, you either stop screaming at each other or warrant mutual destruction of each other. Personal Attacks are NOT welcome on wikipedia. You are welcome to discuss content on articles. You both are violating WP:NPA and hence are equally guilty as far as I care.
- I kindly ask both of you to please discuss article content only NOT each others personalities.
- Please focus on what’s better for the project and I can assure you that is not you screaming at each other for whatever the reason is. -- Cat chi? 15:58, 13 December 2005 (UTC)
- May I inquire how I have been screaming at anyone..? I attempted to talk about the article on a neutral point of view, I apologized to him earlier for my previous shouting out, and I have not committed any personal attacks... How have I been unfair..?-MegamanZero 16:02, 13 December 2005 (UTC)
- Now stop being a silly sausage is a personal attack. If one side is bad other is not any worse as far as WP:NPA should be concerned.
- As visible from [6] other party is also violating WP:NPA. Modifying sigs can ALSO be interpreted as vandalism. I am not treating this any lightly than it should be.
- I can only help the side ceasing personal attacks. If you both stop then there wont be a reason for my interference. -- Cat chi? 16:14, 13 December 2005 (UTC)
-
- During this entire situation, I have kept my cool, I have asked nicely for theOrgy to come over to my userpage and talk like civil people. Finally, his supposed "personal attacks" are false: I did not misspell his name on purpose, and I even had enough civility to go back and fix the misspelling...Cool Cat, I understand how people can be wrong in a situation like this, but I know I have attempted to be sincerely kind throughout this whole situation, and I am not afraid to accept the fact when I am wrong in a matter. But, despite my kind gestures, he responded with a barrage of attacks on my talkpage, insulted my intelligence, and tried to use a article's talkpage for his own means. I am asking for a moderator (ie. you) and not one's opinion on who's fault it is in the matter.-MegamanZero 16:17, 13 December 2005 (UTC)
- Yes, that’s why sparks didn't fly. He seems to have ceased his behavior (and you too).
- Please understand I cannot take sides when both sides were somewhat "wrong". I am not remotely suggesting his behaviour is remotely acceptable.
- If he touches signatures again I'll see to it that sparks do fly at his general direction as that is not only a violation of WP:NPA but also falls under Vandalism.
- Currently I am treating this as you and him saying things you regret/will regret in hopes that things will be settled with out involving administrators. -- Cat chi? 16:32, 13 December 2005 (UTC)
- "Now stop being a silly sausage" was not a personal attack. It was simply a refutation of his baseless attack on me. If I recall, he used a talkpage just to insult me. That line was simply meant to say, 'that's not true, and you're being silly". In other words, I was saying that his assumption on my stupidity and my good faith was incorrect and completely unjustified. Finally, I have not committed any personal attacks; I feel TheOrgy is being unfair, and I do not hold any ill will towards him. I would simply like something to be done about his baseless attacks against me and come to an agreement on the article. But, when I tried, he blew me off and said "I lacked intelligence and proper views".-MegamanZero 16:26, 13 December 2005 (UTC)
- Look, if someone suggested that I was being a "silly sausage" I would feel somewhat insulted. Your intentions may not be an attempt to insult him but sadly it may be interpreted as such. -- Cat chi? 16:32, 13 December 2005 (UTC)
- I understand that, and I didn't realize I was being insulting when I made that statement, however, I still would like to know how I have been wrong in this situation. You have said I was "screaming", I was not. You said I was violating WP:NPA, I had not (meant to). Finally, you say, "I have ceased my behavior"...Please, tell me, what I did that was so wrong...I believe I have been very nice about this matter, and I shall continue to be.-MegamanZero 16:40, 13 December 2005 (UTC)
- I placed a notice on WP:ANB/I [7], I would normaly pursue the matter further but I have to attend an important meeting and will be back later or perhaps the next day. -- Cat chi? 17:43, 13 December 2005 (UTC)

Hi Cool Cat, thank you for "The Graphic Designer's Barnstar". Actually, the work was nothing much.

- Also you may want to join the discussion in Wikipedia talk:Assume good faith regarding the image, I decided to push it to be the symbol of "Assume good faith" (since it is nice enough). -- Cat chi? 13:04, 14 December 2005 (UTC)

The bot is down and I still onl have a really old version of it to run. --Adam1213 Talk + 13:18, 15 December 2005 (UTC)
- I see. Drini has the updated version, I have no access to IRC or the computer the bot runs on. I'll look into this weekend and the bot should be able to "fix" itself meanwhile. -- Cat chi? 13:58, 15 December 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Fake impersonator account
- User:Cool Cat is a fat fat appears to be a fake user page for a nonexistent account. The admins' blocking tools do not appear, and an attempt to block it failed, saying the account did not exist. -- Karada 16:16, 15 December 2005 (UTC)
- According to kate's tool it exists. Type "Cool Cat" on [9]. Strange... :) -- Cat chi? 16:19, 15 December 2005 (UTC)
- Am I seeing wrong? -- Cat chi? 16:21, 15 December 2005 (UTC)
I've found the problem: the "real" impersonator account has a period at the end: see User:Cool Cat is a fat fat. -- Karada 16:25, 15 December 2005 (UTC)

I don't know about mirc programming but in most programming languages reading or writing to files takes a while and uses CPU. I think that the bot does this. if it had the files contence as variables instead of reading files all the time it could go much faster and use less cpu --Adam1213 Talk + 06:50, 16 December 2005 (UTC)
- Somewhat true, reading from the hard-drive uses more CPU but not all that much. Just a few extra instruction exchange in different levels of memory (including system bus) and of course there is the delay due to hard drive read lag. However, in practice that isn't all that much infact all of it does not even take a second.
- Keeping track of wikipedia requires quite a lot of RAM if you try to keep everything in memory. Just the list of IPs can suck up all the ram like there is no tomorrow. The bot currently does not compare a given IP edit to all of the IP's stored. It follows a makeshift binary search tree model reading from a sorted system of folders and files (over several thousand files just for IPs. The bot does not even read admin lists, blacklisted pages if a minor edit is made by a user (NullC's bot covers sneaky vandalism so I don’t worry about that as it requires direct access to wikipedia servers which I lack and NullC does not).
- Also the now 700+ lines of admin lists would not fit in a single memory variable on mirc which at most holds 1000 characters. Anything above is declared an overflow and is ignored. A lot of admin usernames have a decent length. So it would take a number of variables just to take care of that. Since the start of the bots lifespan we had about 200 new admins. The growing list will require more and more variables which is increasingly harder to implement and keep track of compared to overwriting a single file.
- These are few of the many problems why I am hesitant to dump it all to memory.
- The primary reason of bots speed is because of my very very slow internet connection. I am yet to convince Brion/Tim to allow me to host the bot on the wikipedia servers which would make the bot reliable however would also make it hard to update.

(Being bold and removing {{Wikipedia:Counter Vandalism Unit/Watched}}; considerable objections at the talk page. Thanks!)
- What the heck? There wasn't a single mention of the template on the talk page? There needs to be an overwhelming opposition for such a drastic action. You cannot test something without testing it. I am restoring the "watched" template. Please do not consider this as a revert, I just want to test the idea ok? :) -- Cat chi? 23:28, 16 December 2005 (UTC)
- Sorry, I should have made myself clearer: there is considerable objections to the use of the template at Wikipedia talk:Counter Vandalism Unit. I, too, have concerns about the use of such a template. Would you mind testing the template somewhere else, perhaps on a subpage of the CVU modeled after a real article? Thanks a lot. Flcelloguy (A note?) 00:09, 17 December 2005 (UTC)
- Oh I see. The problem with that is I know no one will vandalize the discrete page no one knows about with that template. I placed that template on two articles that are already vandal magnets (its not like we are risking vandalism). If we observe a decrease in vandalism that’s a good sign, if not it is inconclusive. So it is a long process. In light of that what do you think? -- Cat chi? 01:07, 17 December 2005 (UTC)
- OK, I see. I don't mind having a "test" of the template, as long as it is kept short (a week or so) and is limited to one page. I still don't think it should be used, but I don't think having a test will hurt either, as long as other people don't object. Perhaps you should remove the template for now and ask other editors if they mind having the template up for a week? Also, if you're going to do a test, I wouldn't recommend doing it on George W. Bush or John Seigenthaler Sr.. The former's article is currently part of an ongoing debate about whether to include section editing, and the vandalism will fluctuate with that. The latter will receive less attention throughout the week, so vandalism will bound to drop there. How about at Wikipedia? I still suggest asking at the talk page and see if anyone minds the test for a weel. Thanks! Flcelloguy (A note?) 01:26, 17 December 2005 (UTC)
- Ok, I am fine with that, however may I ask you insert the template ^-^' -- Cat chi? 18:07, 17 December 2005 (UTC)
- All you have to do is to ask at the talk page and see if anyone minds; if no-one objects, then you can add the template for a test. Keep in mind that this should be a "test"; I still oppose the use of the template. Thanks! Flcelloguy (A note?) 18:17, 17 December 2005 (UTC)
- Bah people will definitely complain if I suggest anything there exist people who oppose ides just because I am suggesting it. -- Cat chi? 19:34, 17 December 2005 (UTC)
- Sorry, there's nothing I can do then. If people don't think adding the template, even for a test, is a good idea, or if you are unable to post such a message, I can't help you out. In either case, I still don't like using the template for any non-testing purposes. Thanks! Flcelloguy (A note?) 20:20, 17 December 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Ataturk?
What's this about "all images of Ataturk are public domain"? DS 13:20, 17 December 2005 (UTC)
- It has been over 50 years sice the man died (one reason why all images should be PD) and even when he was alive his photos were declared "national heritage" and hence were a part of the public domain. After all the man was a "national hero". :) -- Cat chi? 14:32, 17 December 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Ataturk (more)
Okay, first, the mere fact of Ataturk having been dead for +50 years does not automatically make any-and-all photos of him public domain. It would make works by him public-domain if he was American (or, um, certain other nationalities; I'm not 100% sure about what the jurisdictions are in which those rules apply). But a photo is automatically copyright of the photographer, not of the subject. Is the photographer still alive? Was the photo taken under the auspices of a corporate entity which still exists?
On the other hand, there's your statement that all photos of him were declared "national heritage". All photos of Ataturk are property of the Government of Turkey, is that it? No matter who took them? Can you provide a source for that? What if it was a photo taken by a non-Turk? Taken and developed outside of the country? Could the Turkish government mount a legal challenge to image ownership if they felt it necessary? If someone found an old photo of Ataturk at a café in Damascus, taken by the café owner, and then left in a box in the café basement for ninety years, would the Turkish government offer to buy the photo? Would they be obliged to do so? What about the image of him on the cover of TIME magazine (Man of the Year, 1923)?
Next, let's assume for a moment that you're correct in that all Ataturk images are property of the government of Turkey. That can mean that they're all public domain. But it doesn't necessarily. Has the government of Turkey explicitly released its images and info into the public domain, the way the US government has?
If so, we should have a formal copyright template - "All images of Mustafa Kemal Ataturk have been declared to be National Heritage by the Government of Turkey, and are thus presumed to be in the Public Domain", or words to that effect. It would be helpful, since multiple Ataturk images have "questionable copyright" tags attached to them. DS 15:13, 17 December 2005 (UTC)
- Yes I realise this. But I am having difficulty finding any copyright info. I do not believe Time magazine owns the copyrights for the Ataturk cover of theirs, given they did not take the photo. No one is making copyright claims as far as I can see. Hence why I have no problem accepting it as PD. Throughout my stay in Turkey I never heard of anyone complaing about copyrights regarding Ataturk... I am no expert in the matter.
- I know this is just logic and week legal documentation but I really cant find anything to that extent. -- Cat chi? 16:36, 17 December 2005 (UTC)
- No one quotes any copyrights when using the images either in school textbooks or newspapers so I do not believe we have copyrights protecting them or else they would be quoted right? -- Cat chi? 17:04, 17 December 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Proposed solution
Newspapers *do* list copyrights on photos, in small text on the side/underneath/etc. Textbooks either list the copyright on the page with the photo, or have the info in a little section at the front or back. Or do you mean, specifically, Turkish newspapers and textbooks do not list copyright info on images of Ataturk?
You can create a "Photos of Kemal Ataturk have been declared National Heritage by TurkGov and are thus believed to be Public Domain" template if you want (I'm not up to creating a template from scratch just now), and attach it to all the images of him on WP; that'll make things much easier from a legal standpoint.
Oh, and as for Time Magazine -[[Image:Time_Ataturk.JPG]] looks more like a drawing than a photo. DS 17:09, 17 December 2005 (UTC)
- Yes, however on any image of Ataturk we don’t see copyright info. We could do what you suggest, although we probably want better wording. :) -- Cat chi? 18:16, 17 December 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Overhall
As you can see, I've made some big changes to my talkpage. My only problem now is getting the format to match my userpage...see how my talkpage's "pattern" consists of gray..? I want to do that to my userpage, but so far I can only get the red borderlines to encompass it... How do I make the inside of the infobox gray..? -MegamanZero|Talk 21:11, 17 December 2005 (UTC)
- I fixed that one for you. :) -- Cat chi? 22:20, 17 December 2005 (UTC)
- Now I'll be blunt about a problem with your user and user talk page. If I don't complain about it someone else will, since you are an experienced wikipedian there are some legal issues you may want to fix. Usage of copyrighted images on userpages is a problem as that conflicts with the "fair-use" agreement. All Megaman and megaman zero images are copyrighted by Capcom or other various companies (anime etc). Hence are not GNU compatible. -- Cat chi? 22:20, 17 December 2005 (UTC)
- I see. I'll make sure we're cleared on those, Cool Cat. Also, thanks so much for helping me with that, I was doing quite well with making the templates and such, but for some reason, couldn't get that to work...thanks again. Now, most importantly, the question: What do you think of think of it..? :) I got the design as a melding of mine,yours, Mr.Sidaway's, and Master Jimbo's pages respectively. -MegamanZero|Talk 01:35, 18 December 2005 (UTC)
- Jimbos userpage is my design, some of tonys userpage is also my design and my own page is also my design ;). -- Cat chi? 01:58, 18 December 2005 (UTC)
- :P I see! So, let me rephrase that: I got the design from Cool Cat! :) Still, the design, it looks nice, no..? -MegamanZero|Talk 02:01, 18 December 2005 (UTC)
-
-
- Your userpage looks ok (red is a bit to bright but that’s my taste/bad taste) your user talk page has too much stuff. Those are my views based on my taste, you are welcome to keep them as you wish.
- Regarding copyrights, I am sorry but fair use images cannot appear anywhere on your userspace. I do not like copyrights myself but as wikipedias we have to obey international copyright laws. :( -- Cat chi? 02:02, 18 December 2005 (UTC)
- Oh, I understand the copyright situation. My apologies for that. One thing though, may I ask how you're so good at this and all..? I mean, you being a Cat, I mean....how do you type with those paws of yours..? :) -MegamanZero|Talk 02:24, 18 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Hey....
Are you going to replay to my query or not...? -_- -MegamanZero|Talk 18:20, 19 December 2005 (UTC)
- I will not because I have no right to weight another’s overall edits. So long as ones intentions is to expand wikipedia they are good they can be even better if they follow wikipedia guidelines which exist only to increase the efficiency of the process. Sorry. -- Cat chi? 18:31, 19 December 2005 (UTC)
- You misunderstand the question... I meant could you give me advice on areas you think I am lacking in as far as a candidate for admin, etc..? I simply said I wouldn't ask you this until I made it past 2000 edits, but it has little to do with what I am inquiring of you. -MegamanZero|Talk 18:38, 19 December 2005 (UTC)
- ^-^'
- You should IRC more :P.
- editcountism can be fatal.
- -- Cat chi? 18:48, 19 December 2005 (UTC)

- Absolutely. But its one of the factors voters look at when selecting an admin.
Anything else I can improve in..? You know, like my dealings with other wikipedians, for instance..? -MegamanZero|Talk 18:57, 19 December 2005 (UTC)
-
- Google for IRC FAQs. I really cant explain it better than them :)
- False, editcountism is not an admin criteria. I would be an admin if anyone really cared about edit counts. Edit counts is generally an excuse for people to be dicks and oppose for no good reason.
- -- Cat chi? 22:15, 19 December 2005 (UTC)

- Okay, I'll try looking it up.

[edit] SpongeBob SqurePants
Cool Cat, Caldorwards4 IS removing vandalism. SpongeBob episodes after season 4 are unconfirmed and fail WP:V. Please stop reverting his edits on the SpongeBob SquarePants episode page. --Apostrophe 19:42, 19 December 2005 (UTC)
- He is NOT reverting vandalism, granted wikipedia is not a crystal ball either. I will revert ANYTHING labeled as vandalism when it is not.
- Please make sure he reads and understands Wikipedia:Vandalism, especially "what is not vandalism" section. I would explain to him myself but I doubt he would listen to me.
- Thanks -- Cat chi? 22:11, 19 December 2005 (UTC)
- I fear I have a looser definition than yours, then. Adding fanfiction episodes compromises the integrity of Wikipedia by making people assume that those hoaxes are somehow canon or actual when they are not. Regardless, even if it is incorrectly labeled as vandalism, I don't see the point in blindly reverting it and causing an edit war. Explain on the user's talk page what he is doing wrong, and don't revert changes that were beneficial in the end. Everybody's happy. --Apostrophe 23:33, 19 December 2005 (UTC)
- You probably do not know the level of vandalism wikipedia suffers from. Allow me to explain on average an RC patroller has about 5 seconds to review a number of pages for vandalism (few tabs). After that 5 secs of review and reverts there are 10 or more new cases to review. You occasionally have to glance at history and if I see multiple people reverting a specific user who is removing lots of sane sounding material, I will not spend too much time reviewing all the details. And that’s for more "obvious" cases.
- Hoaxes fall under WP:POINT not WP:Vandalism they are still not welcome.
- If my revert of what I suspect is vandalism is reverted back in a few minutes labeled as "vandalism" resulting in the removal of sane sounding content it goes beyond my scope of "Good Faith". "RVV" on edit summaries is reserved for more obvious cases of vandalism such as page blankings.
- If ones "RVV" is reverted as "RVV" one should not revert it without explaining him/herself in the edit summary. Us RC patrollers know each other so we rarely run each other, lots of vandals blank pages labeling it as an "RVV". Now if he reverted saying: "Reverting Hoax see talk" we wouldn't have a problem.
- Please explain all of this to him. :)

Selam Cool Cat, türkçe yazmayı uygun gördüm sorun varsa bir dahaki sefere. Kurdistan adı altında bir kategori var, türkiyenin illerine bakarken 2-3 ilde Kurdistan kategorisini silmiştin. Ama buradaki yöneticilerden birisi politik görüşümü karıştırmakla yaptıklarımı geri almış. Burada aktif olan birisi olarak seni gördüm. Bu arada anime konusunda bende meraklılardanım. Türkçe wikide yönetici pozisyonundayım o yüzden buraya fazla ilgi gösteremiyorum. İng. wikideki mesaj sayfamdan cevap verebilirsin, iletişimde olmak istersen. Kolay gelsin--Ugur Basak 21:26, 19 December 2005 (UTC)
- Good day - Iyi günler - Konnichi wa (こんにちは),
- Sorry but I really havent mastered any language but English well enough to carry out a discussion with.
- Category:Kurdistan was created recently on 1 Dec 2005 based on the history added by User:Diyako. The best way to get rid of that category is put it up for deletion arguing about inappropriateness. Given it is a controversial subject you really need to build a strong case. I am sorry but it is in your best interest if I do not get directly involved reasons being quite complicated. I simply do not want to risk further harassment.
- Anime is nice. I'd reccomend the ones listed on my userpage although there are perhaps thousands of different series out there.
- What do you think of the Turkish on my userpage, Mind if I ask if you can check for spelling and grammatical errors? :)
- Do you guys in Tr.wiki suffering from vandalsim? If so you are welcome to use my bot in combating them. I can set it up if you guys are interested. You can observe its performance on irc.freenode.net in channel #wikipedia-en-vandalism

Cool cat, i get it:) Naruto and Full Metal is my favorites. We can talk later about that bot. I guess you are from Cyprus. I edit some minor things on your page, later i will edit again.

- Sorry I keep personal info a matter of out most confidentiality. Please dont take it personal, its just my personal policy :)
- Actually (if you dont mind my asking) can you translate everything in the Turkish section? I'll restructure the page a bit to make it easier. Also feel free to rewrite the section so it looks "better" making it mean more like the english section :) -- Cat chi? 23:28, 19 December 2005 (UTC)
No problem for me. About translations i dont want to promise you but i want to help you. Maybe sentence by sentence:)It's time for me to sleep. bye--Ugur Basak 23:53, 19 December 2005 (UTC)
- I also detected a Category:Anti-Kurdism. This really is getting trobblesome... -- Cat chi? 20:22, 20 December 2005 (UTC)
[edit] The test
Cool Cat, when will the test end at Talk:John Seigenthaler Sr.? As I said earlier, that test won't be too reliable because the amount of attention has gone done significantly. Just curious; I don't want the template there that long... :-) Flcelloguy (A note?) 22:16, 19 December 2005 (UTC)
- Maybe because of the template? ^-^'. It can end the second you wish to end, I do not care about it anymore.
- I decided I am no longer going to come up with ideas that may/may not make wikipedia better.
- All I get is people annoying me or oposing my ideas with out bothering to cite reasons. See talk of WP:AGF.
- The only thing people dont push me around too much is when I write about Anime. -- Cat chi? 22:39, 19 December 2005 (UTC)
- I've removed the template now. Thanks! Flcelloguy (A note?) 00:46, 20 December 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Deaparture
Hey, Cool Cat. I'm going back to the States with my girlfriend for the rest of the month, and I need you to keep an eye on things for me. You know...vandalism on my user and talkpages, etc. I telling you ahead of time, because I don't know if I will be in possession of a internet connection where I'm going... Finally, could you relay this info to Mr. Sidaway, Oni Okami Alfador, and The Wookiepedian..? They edit the articles I work on, so I need them to keep a vigilant eye too. Thanks, and I'll see you all when I get back! :) -MegamanZero|Talk 06:55, 20 December 2005 (UTC)
P.S. Merry Christmas!
- Ok, I'll pass the word around. Merry Christmas! :) -- Cat chi? 19:08, 20 December 2005 (UTC)
[edit] RE: Hello!
Been busy and keeping my head down. About to get back into the mix though. And dear god your talk page looks pretty.--Tznkai 16:17, 21 December 2005 (UTC)
- What? You in a wiki-trench? O_o'
- Oh thank you, actually lots of userpages out there have been my design recently ^-^' -- Cat chi? 16:27, 21 December 2005 (UTC)
Citation? YOU ASK FOR CITATION?. OK :) I added the section you requested. Should be enough :P -- Cat chi? 21:48, 21 December 2005 (UTC)
- No need to shout at me, I'm on your side. I'm sure it's not long before your list becomes featured (indeed, I hope to be the one that actually promotes it, unless ALoan jumps in first:) ). I'm glad you've already got there with your references - though I'll stick to my 4 day allowance in case there are any further references that strike you as apposite, and to allow for further comments as to whether the list is now adequately referenced, or for other comments. On the face of it, though, it's currently looking that your Christmas Day will include a present of promotion of your list to featured list status. Good luck, jguk 22:14, 21 December 2005 (UTC)
- No I wasn't shouting... Sorry sorry sorry, I am merely excited. :) -- Cat chi? 22:16, 21 December 2005 (UTC)
- Just remember, you shouldn't open your presents before the 25th:) jguk 22:15, 21 December 2005 (UTC)
- Ok. :) -- Cat chi? 22:16, 21 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] User Vcxlor
Well I have no intention of keeping up withthe rapid change in good ole goldfishbowland (can you imagine the wat yahhiccup and growgle will be coping with the increased userpage mayhem with urrser boxes) the extent to which yr hnorable self & others (& I while in it) will in all probability (I had no intention of making a link to adam's book as I am thoroughly disbelieving of his explanations of 42) create a user box problem (cermen had 70+ lastcont)which will require surgery or limits - and the extent that one can constantly steal from other users, the userbox 5+ will be redundant I will guess by new year 2006 with some lovely wikipedia usia hiting 100+) viz my own boxes referring to it as mania/compulsive obsessive disorder. There are serious issues mind you, and I would guess that by the 12day of chrsmaass moves will be afooot to do something aboutit.

Is it possible for you to move that page to Skuld? -- Cat chi? 16:34, 23 December 2005 (UTC)
- Only if there's a consensus for it. --Phroziac . o º O (♥♥♥♥ chocolate!) 16:45, 23 December 2005 (UTC)
- Hmm.... If I request a vote they mention it to everyone interested in norse mythology and come up with artificial votes. If I move it myself they move it back etc using admin powers. What should I do? -- Cat chi? 16:49, 23 December 2005 (UTC)
-
-
- Cool cat, as I suggested on Talk:Skuld months ago, you should attract some people to vote in your favour who are neutral. Until then, there is no consensus to move the article, only in your mind... / Fred-Chess 17:04, 23 December 2005 (UTC)
- I kinda agree with fred. --Phroziac . o º O (♥♥♥♥ chocolate!) 17:15, 23 December 2005 (UTC)
[edit] IRC bot
Is it possible to put the IRC bot on a new channel to be used by portuguese wikipedians (to fight vandalism on portuguese wikipedia)? How it can be done ? thanks. -- lijealso 22:25, 23 December 2005 (UTC)
- It can be done with a few keyboard commands on my part, however I will need help in translation of the bot. Ill make the necesary adjustments. -- Cat chi? 23:42, 23 December 2005 (UTC)
-
- What needs to be translated? I'll try to do it (or ask some help from portuguese wikipedians). thanks. -- lijealso 23:54, 23 December 2005 (UTC)

- The bot is active at #wikipedia-pt-vandalism I am working on uploading the pages to wikipedia. -- Cat chi? 00:10, 24 December 2005 (UTC)

- User:Cool Cat/IRC Bot/Pt/lang-IP.txt
- User:Cool Cat/IRC Bot/Pt/lang-reguaruser.txt
- User:Cool Cat/IRC Bot/Pt/lang-results.txt (highly optional lots of tedious work)
- I'll need the translation of all but the last one of the files listed above, last one has some code in it so is hard to translate others shouldnt be too hard. If translation does not happen the bot will work just fine but will post in english rather than portugeese. -- Cat chi? 00:17, 24 December 2005 (UTC)
- Ok. im testing it on #wikipedia-pt-vandalism. I also made an announcement for other users in pt.wiki about this.
- I'll try to translate the files. When finished, i'll post here. Thanks again. -- lijealso 00:55, 24 December 2005 (UTC)
- Oh please edit the pages. You do not need to post the translations here, just edit the actual pages :), it would be nice for you to mention when done, although Ill know about it even if you dont mention ;) -- Cat chi? 01:04, 24 December 2005 (UTC)
- Sorry, didn't notice the links had "pt". I think its almost done. Probably needing minor adjustments. lijealso 01:56, 24 December 2005 (UTC)
This is not an anime character, it is merely the super computer maintaining reality as we know it. :P -- Cat chi? 01:45, 24 December 2005 (UTC)
- Dude, I've spent the past week sorting through thousands of stubs in various categories, and the only comment I've gotten was from you on this article about five minutes after I edited it. Cut me some slack, would you? Kerowyn 02:02, 24 December 2005 (UTC)
- Oh, dont mind me I watch a lot of articles. Sometimes my response time can be unreasonable. I am NOT criticising you. You are doing a decent job which I wouldnt dare (sorting stubs). Is there a stub category for anime "objects"? All I want to achieve from this is the article have the right stub cat. The ignorant and stub person (me) does not know which one that shold be. :) -- Cat chi? 02:09, 24 December 2005 (UTC)
- Sorry if I snapped. It's just a bit aggravating that the only people who notice are the ones who correct me. *sigh* The thankless life of a stub sorter. =)
There isn't a category for "anime objects" specifically, although there is probably a sci-fi/fantasy object section, which isn't accurate at all. Although I think the category is more in need of a section for seiyu, and maybe separate categories for "anime" and "manga" althought that last one might be difficult. Kerowyn 02:14, 24 December 2005 (UTC)
[edit] disambig
Umm this one is derrived from the nprse tree and fulfils the same duty. One watching the amime will be more than likely of the origin and other ygdrassils on other anime which are listed in the disambig page. :) -- Cat chi? 01:59, 24 December 2005 (UTC)
- Well, someone's only going to get to the article from Oh My Goddess! articles, or Yggdrasil (disambiguation), so the disambig stuff doesn't need to be at the top of Yggdrasil (Oh My Goddess!). But, hey, whatever, you think is best.--Sean|Black 02:06, 24 December 2005 (UTC)
- I just want to make it easy for the reader. The Anime and the norse legends go back and forth quite often although not too much. -- Cat chi? 02:08, 24 December 2005 (UTC)
- I see. Like I said, whatever you think is best, you know more about this than me :).--Sean|Black 02:12, 24 December 2005 (UTC)

- Assuming you know about the mythology, can you check the factual accuracy of norse mythology referances on any/all articles related to Oh My Goddess!? You can use the nav box :) -- Cat chi? 02:13, 24 December 2005 (UTC)
- Hey, that sounds like fun! I'll take a look around. By the way, I really dig the tables used in the "Cast" section on the main Oh My Goddess! article. I may have to swipe that to use on some of the Transformers (toyline) articles I'm working on.--Sean|Black 02:20, 24 December 2005 (UTC)
- You can also use Template:Oh My Goddess Infobox-Generic infobox for character and episode pages. -- Cat chi? 13:56, 24 December 2005 (UTC)

Could you please make a general template for the 42 userbox @ Template:User 42 for everyone to use? Thanks in advance, --Jamdav86 10:33, 24 December 2005 (UTC)

Hi Cool Cat, i'm not so active for these days on en.wiki. Mostly spending my time for daily life and tr.wiki. I've seen xmas messages, Merry Christmas to you. Görüşmek üzere--Ugur Basak 20:01, 24 December 2005 (UTC)
- Thank you, I know christmas isn't celebrated in Turkey though, I know you guys celebrate the New Year thing. Hence best wishes anyways. -- Cat chi? 20:06, 24 December 2005 (UTC)
- That's POV sentence:)(just joke) In Turkey it's not celebrated among the muslims. But christians celebrate it, there are also some French, Austrian etc. schools, at least they make holiday in Christmas days. We celebrate New year on December 31, i dont celebrate it either:) don't like celebrations.--Ugur Basak 20:18, 24 December 2005 (UTC)

Merry Christmas to you, CoolCat! In the same spirit of your welcoming me to Wikipedia, I wish you the best this holiday season. Also, when you get a break from your yule-tide celebrations, I'd very much appreciate it if you could contact me; I have some questions about what to do on Wikipedia with POV material showing repeatedly on the same page despite removal. Thank you, and God bless! MaRoWi 07:55, 25 December 2005 (UTC)

Hello, you are adding the WoW template to User:64.27.5.168 - I deleted it and I deleted it again. We don't recognise IPs as sockpuppets and we never block them indefinitly. I have not blocked that IP as it has stopped vandalising, so there is no point in adding the template. Thanks. Izehar 13:56, 27 December 2005 (UTC)
- Oh OK, sorry for the extra burdon, however we do block IPs on some occasions indefinitely, I really suspect that one is an open proxy. -- Cat chi? 13:57, 27 December 2005 (UTC)
It may be, but how do we prove it. I know that there is a way to check, but I haven't found out how to. Izehar 13:59, 27 December 2005 (UTC)

just to let you know the irc bot computer2 has gone belly up ;-)Benon 19:13, 27 December 2005 (UTC)
- eh? -- Cat chi? 19:26, 27 December 2005 (UTC)
- i.e. It's disappeared. Also please can you send me a version of your bot if possible. FireFox 20:06, 27 December 2005 (UTC)
- Only possible on friday as I cannot do anything. Net con the bot runs on is unstable due to a variety of problems ranging from power faliures to god knows what. We should campaign so that the bot runs on a wikipedia server :P -- Cat chi? 20:15, 27 December 2005 (UTC)
- I assume you are ignoring me. FireFox 20:13, 27 December 2005 (UTC)
- No I am not ignoring you, I only cannot respond the instant you post, geez patience! :P -- Cat chi? 20:15, 27 December 2005 (UTC)
- I can. FireFox 20:16, 27 December 2005 (UTC)
- I can too normaly but often I do attention demanding tasks such as modifying the Template:Oh My Goddess Infobox-Generic which is tedious work as one error (such as an extra line) will break over 60 pages. -- Cat chi? 20:20, 27 December 2005 (UTC)
- Fair enough. Is there any way you can send me your bot then? FireFox 20:22, 27 December 2005 (UTC)
- No but I am attempting a remote dekstop which I so far havent been successfull. It sometimes works some time does not depends how much the computer I am using the one the bots running and all the ones inbetween feel like. -- Cat chi? 20:29, 27 December 2005 (UTC)
- Where can I find your bot then to download a copy or something? By the way Computer2's disappeared again. FireFox 20:31, 27 December 2005 (UTC)
- Ill email it to you and I see the bot in the chanel please visit an optician. -- Cat chi? 20:55, 27 December 2005 (UTC)
- Well it left and came back again. FireFox 21:00, 27 December 2005 (UTC)
Why are you standing in the way of the fight against WoW? Hexagonal 01:18, 28 December 2005 (UTC)
- I am not. The only way RC patroling is acceptable is when RC patrolers do not interfere with the "article writing process", when writing on Kurdistan Workers Party I expect no one (or only an elite few) to know what my ip is. It is easier to write on such topics when you know you have annonymity. Furthermore nutcases such as Daniel Brandt should never have such access.
- Also as an RC patroler I want my IP kept as a state secret away from people who try to spoof it. It has happened before and my IP has been blocked for vandalism even though it wasn't my doing. I obviously am not a vandal and the vandal spoofing my IP got it by dnsing me on IRC. Since then I have taken mesures to better hide my IP.
- I never underestimate the enemy (vandals), while additional powers if used properly would help us deal with vandalism better, misuse of same powers would create a mess ten times worse. Unlike post sep 11th period in USA, we should not be paranoid at a post Seigenthaler here on Wikipedia.
- CVU as far as anyone should be concerned is a joint effort against vandalism. It should not however hand over power to random people strictly because they are members.
- I do however agree more checkusers should exist strictly to lift the weight from David Gerards sholders. He is doing a decent job but he is having a hard time keeping up with all of it. Arbcom should hand out more check users and the process should have nothing to do with CVU directly. -- Cat chi? 09:21, 28 December 2005 (UTC)
- This isn't about Daniel Brandt, nor is it about the Kurdistan Workers Party. We need you to join us in taking the fight to the vandals, not waiting for them to hit us when we're most vulnerable. Preemptive blocking is the only way we can keep them out. We know where they reside, and preemptive blocks will not only keep them out, but cause the disgruntled bystanders to pressure their ISPs to weed out vandals. Hexagonal 23:52, 28 December 2005 (UTC)
- What is the point of an editable encyclopedia if no one can edit. There exists admins that use ip ranges vandals also use on the sole fact that they are in the same country/state/isp. What you are suggesting is we ban entier nations from editing wikipedia. It really wouldn't work well. Majority of the people want to help wikipedia be better, the annoying pests (vandals) always stayed in the minority. What you suggested has already been suggested for AOL for example and was heavly opposed. Innocent till proven guilty rather than guilty regardless please. -- Cat chi? 10:11, 29 December 2005 (UTC)

Hi there, thanks for uploading Image:Original Goddess.jpg. I noticed that there is some required information missing from the image description. The Wikimedia Foundation has to be very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law. We need you to specify two things on the image description page:
- who created the image
- the copyright status
If you created the image:
If you haven't already, please add a note in the description of the image saying that you created it.
Next you need to choose a copyright license so that people on Wikipedia know what they can and cannot do with your image. There are only a few licenses to choose from for images you created yourself. Once you have decided which one you wish to use, simply copy the tag exactly as shown into the image description. Please note that you MUST allow people to freely use and copy your image (you may apply some conditions to that), else it may not be used on Wikipedia.
If you didn't create the image:
If you haven't already, please provide a URL to the site it came from (or the name of the source if it didn't come from a website) and the name of the person or organisation that owns the copyright.
You next need to add a copyright tag so that other users know how the image may be used. Please browse the list of image copyright tags and determine which applies to the image. If, after browsing this page, you are unsure of the tag to add, please add a {{Don't know}} tag to the image description and someone will help you choose the correct tag.
Please note that if you do not choose a copyright tag for the image within seven days, it will be deleted. Please could you ensure that any other images you have uploaded also have the above information in the description - you can see a list of the images you've uploaded by clicking on My Contributions and selecting Image from the drop-down box. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask on my talk page. Thanks! --David Johnson [T|C] 21:54, 28 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Activism vs. encyclopedism
Hi CC, please accept my comment here and at Categories for deletion/Log/2005 December 29#Category:Anti-Semitic people in a good faith. I think you misunderstand what anti-semitism is. It is not a slur. Instead of deletionist activism, I think it would be better for the project if you get familiar with the issues first. I believe we can come up with encyclopedic criteria and an NPOV title. We should bring scholarly authoritative opinions, discuss and strive for consensus. That out of the way, cheers and Happy 2006! ←Humus sapiens←ну? 23:46, 30 December 2005 (UTC)
- It is a slur. Anti-Semitic by dictionary definition is: One who discriminates against or who is hostile toward or prejudiced against Jews. [14] hence one declaring random people Anti-Semitic and putting them in the same category as hitler you cant quite think of NPOV. -- Cat chi? 01:09, 31 December 2005 (UTC)

- I said "encyclopedic criteria and an NPOV title". Who said "random"? Please, do some reading. ←Humus sapiens←ну? 01:21, 31 December 2005 (UTC)
- Thats just it. You cannot declare anyone Anti-Semitic at random. What is the borderline that makes a person Anti-Semitic? We cannot establish that hence we either have to declare random people Anti-Semitic or we will not declare anyone Anti-Semitic. -- Cat chi? 01:28, 31 December 2005 (UTC)
Please help the List_of_computer_viruses stay alive! You seem to have a heavily vested interest in this article. A-Day 23:59, 30 December 2005 (UTC)
- Thank you! A-Day 04:08, 31 December 2005 (UTC)
- Oop, looks like there's similar voting going on for the list of trojan horses. Thanks again (and sorry for bothering you!) - A-Day 22:09, 31 December 2005 (UTC)
- I appreciate you taking the time to cast your second vote. I'll never bother you again. Thank you, A-Day 22:26, 31 December 2005 (UTC)
- Oh you are not bothering me, feel free to inform me of such votes, my comments were directed at the nominator... :) -- Cat chi? 23:03, 31 December 2005 (UTC)
- Hey hey! I'm glad there are no hard feelings. On the bright side, the nominator has to be doing a good job editting articles. A-Day 00:58, 1 January 2006 (UTC)
- Well, voting knowledge for deletion is something frowned upon by the masses here on wikipedia ^-^' -- Cat chi? 01:02, 1 January 2006 (UTC)
[edit] ORCA images
On the page ORCA Aircraft you placed a number of awesome images, but they do not have a source. I am loath to tag such images with {{nosource}} templetes, so I was wondering if you could add your source. Thanks in advance. TomStar81 00:35, 31 December 2005 (UTC)
- Hi, they are in game screen captures, I/someone else had taken these from the game movies between missions (the images have been sitting in my drive since the games were out so I cant exactly recall). I do not know how can I cite sources :) -- Cat chi? 01:13, 31 December 2005 (UTC)
- Thats ok, with this information I can make the apropriete citations. In this case all that needs to be noted is that they were taken by you during the ingame movies. TomStar81 01:42, 31 December 2005 (UTC)
