= Recategorizations on Metroid articles. =

Hi, I d like to talk about your recategorization of various Metroid articles. I notice that you re adding the categories Nintendo characters , Metroid , and Video game characters to a lot of them. Well, the thing is, the category Metroid characters encompasses all of these categories. Metroid characters is a subcategory of Nintendo characters , which is a subcategory of Video game characters , and Metroid . Adding these categories is redundant and unnecesary. That s why they re getting removed from those articles, okay : ) -- 06:35, Nov 8, 2004 (UTC) :I hadn t actually noticed. ^^ 23:03, 2005 Jun 1 (UTC)

= Jean Grey as fictional elemental =

I don t think Jean Grey qualifies as a fictional elemental. The Phoenix (comics) has never really been called a fire elemental, has it And what with the Jean was never Phoenix retcon, one could argue even if the Force were a fire elemental, Jean never was. At most she was linked to the Force. :I ve seen the phoenix referred to as a sort of primal force of the universe, the embodiment of life itself. I never meant as a fire elemental. I don t think the phrase life elemental was used though. 08:52, 2005 Jun 4 (UTC)

= Edit summaries =

You ve added a lot of redirects lately without edit summaries. This makes doing edit reviews a lot harder; could you please try to remember to include edit summaries when creating redirects (and in fact on all edits) Thanks. 23:38, Jun 6, 2005 (UTC) :Yeah, I ve goofed on some, sorry. 23:38, 2005 Jun 6 (UTC)

Thanks for cleaning up after Pearle. I fixed a small bug which should prevent the same thing from happening in the future. -- 01:56, 11 August 2005 (UTC)

The CVG Wikiproject discussion page. I don t see why you d want to make the image optional. The infobox collapses if you don t use an image anyway. 03:59, August 11, 2005 (UTC)

I am just letting you know, i undid all of the changes to chrono media items by adding 12:21, 11 August 2005 (UTC)

= Use of Category:Computer and video games =

Hi! Thank you for adding the infobox to the article on Children of the Nile. I had no idea this was available.

I wanted to let you know I added back the category computer and video games . I notice that many but not all games are [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Computer_and_video_games categorized] this way. Perhaps there is a systematic effort underway to make all title articles accessible I did go ahead and add the game to the 00:36, 2005 August 13 (UTC)

:Ok I created the new subcategory City building games (per your edit) under existing subcategory Computer and video game genres which is under master category Computer and video games . I will remove the master category from the article. Thank you for your help! -- 03:55, 2005 August 13 (UTC)

Categories would be ok, however it should probably be something like 11:48, 2005 August 16 (UTC)

I ve visited your [http://www.ldodds.com/projects/musicbrainz/schema/mb.html link] on 15:57:36, 2005-08-29 (UTC) :I didn t post that link.

Thanks for doing the leg work for me, I m still new here. Didn t even know wikipedia had movie, etc. information. -- 07:00, 21 August 2005 (UTC)

= The Category again =

Just because the category survived VFD doesn t mean I am not trying to do something to the category. As a matter of fact, only you and one other person straight voted to keep it.. everyone else voted to keep if renamed or delete or rename . 02:14, 27 August 2005 (UTC)

= Onimusha breaks =

Hi, I was wondering what the difference, if any, between and are I m guessing the latter is just the wiki interpretation of the break 02:52, August 30, 2005 (UTC) :It s a template. . 04:25, 2005 August 30 (UTC)

= hi... regarding =

regarding ... sorry i didnt document it properly... anyway i copied it from Template:Star Wars character...

parameters: *IMAGE - is the code to display the character s image (insert a html comment if no image yet) *BGCOLOR/FGCOLOR - background color and foreground color (i copied from star wars infobox... supposed to be the background color and foreground color of the infobox)... *GENDER - character gender: Male/Female *RACE - character race: e.g. Orc/Night Elf *CHARACTER - the character of the unit in the game: e.g. Death Knight/Paladin *AFFILIATION - who is the character aligned with: e.g. The Horde/ The Nathrezim *OCCUPATION - role of character: e.g. Frostwolf Clan Chieftain, etc.

hope this clarifies things =) any questions feel free to drop me a message...

thanks :: 14:30, 30 August 2005 (UTC)

= About language templates =

Why did you make 01:26, 1 September 2005 (UTC) : Okay, as I ve seen no response I ve reverted this change. I also don t agree with your other babel edits (you seem to have created templates for each of your -- and only your -- computing interests. I would consider myself a c-N and an sh-N and a 03:24, 1 September 2005 (UTC) : it s all good. 04:09, 2005 September 1 (UTC)

CyberSkull, Hi. I m not sure that this is actually doing what you may intend. 05:48, 4 September 2005 (UTC) :DOH! stupid typo 10:50, 2005 September 4 (UTC)

= Love the template! =

CyberSkull, I love your template. I normally consider myself an expert at template editting, but there s a small error and I cannot figure out how to fix it. On the category pages, the language code in the box on the left has an extra space in it (it says en -3 instead of en-3 ). I can t see where to get rid of the space... -- Reinyday, 15:21, 4 September 2005 (UTC) :I ve been trying to figure that out too. I think it may be a bug in the software, it may not be chop() -ing the text from the parameter. I m still trying ;) 15:25, 2005 September 4 (UTC) :Ok, I think I fixed it. 15:40, 2005 September 4 (UTC) ::Looks great! You might want to consider making a separate template for the programming languages that does not include a native category . Personally, I also think there should be no foo-0 templates, except for English. -- Reinyday, 17:07, 4 September 2005 (UTC) :::The language-category parameter is now optional. 17:16, 2005 September 4 (UTC) ::::Now the pages have a redlink to Template:User language/category . -- Reinyday, 21:10, 5 September 2005 (UTC) :::::Yeah, what s up with that 22:26, 5 September 2005 (UTC)

= Templatized Babel for other Wikipedian categories =

Hi there. I kind of like your blank templates, with their color coding. (Was it your idea, or did you copy it from elsewhere in Babel Never mind, I should check these kinds of things before I say something.) I think has a point about the {sub,}category templates, though: there probably shouldn t be interwikis in the template.

Anyway, I thought I d let you know, I m planning on doing something similar for 22:43, 5 September 2005 (UTC)

= User leet =

Why did you create this after the existance of User 1337 ) 23:29, 5 September 2005 (UTC) : I didn t notice that until after I made mine. 01:01, 2005 September 6 (UTC)

= wow revert =

im sorry that my revert caused some of your edits to be lost, but you introduced a very weird effect where all info past virtual world was put into a sort of box and i was unable to find out how to fix that. check the history to see what i mean. again, i apologize. 07:49, 6 September 2005 (UTC) :No, it was a coding error in the template that caused the effect you were talking about. Look at the history [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.phptitle=Template:World_of_Warcraft_instances&oldid=22615810 here] to see it. 19:10, 2005 September 6 (UTC) :: that s also possible, anyway when i reverted to the other one from you it was fixed, prolly because that template wasn t in there yet. 08:20, 7 September 2005 (UTC)

= =

You changed the colours over to a green scheme. I think they should be reverted back to a blue set (like I had it set to) in line with other programming language templates (ref: 12:56, 7 September 2005 (UTC) :The color system I copied is from the lang series, green being the appropriate one for that user level. See templates , , , , and . 13:49, 2005 September 7 (UTC)

= Vandalism Count =

Yes the Jack Thompson (attorney) page seems to be the most vandalized article after Dubya, however we don t really like vandalism counters on article pages. However, most of us are okay with it being hidden text. ) 01:48, 8 September 2005 (UTC)

Hi. I see you discovered what we re doing over in 02:19, 9 September 2005 (UTC)

= Commons images =

Hi, I was gonna delete some of the images you listed at IFD, but noticed that some of the Commons images had a tag that said This file was tagged for being under a free license, but is missing information required for that license (basically, Who made this logo, and is there any reason to think it s GFDL ). 15:29, 9 September 2005 (UTC)

= Jenn Dolari Bio Page=

Howdy. :) Sorry I took so long to get back to you, but I ve kinda left Wikipedia. I signed on only to put in a new message on my talk page, and caught your post on it. Feel free to use whatever you d like on the Bio page, and if I can help you with any additional info, I d be happy to fill you in. My EMail address is on the comics page. :) 15:36, 9 September 2005 (UTC) :By the way, I find it INCREDIBLY ironic that after nearly getting my comics deleted for vanity last year, I have my own biography on the site. ::laughs:: 15:41, 9 September 2005 (UTC) ::Well, that was before I became active ;) . It s mainly that 23:38, 2005 September 9 (UTC)

= Font sizes for babel boxes -- Templates the answer =

Noticed you reverted the font change to ... I was trying to make all the font sizes match (as you might notice, looks a tad ugly with them all random sizes!), which is why I changed re-2 and the like... But quickly gave up, as there s way too many of them!

I m thinking of replacing all them with a template, i.e. , so only one place needs to be edited to change the appearance of all -2 programming language boxes... (instead of the current situation, which seems to be massively cut-and-paste based). But since you seem to also be working on these, figured I should get your opinion first.

What do you think Extra server load, using templates instead of subst Not needed Wait until there s a bot to automagically generate the templates and categories instead of doing it by hand, given the language code, language name, and article Any ideas

Thanks, 03:32, 25 September 2005 (UTC).

:I d prefer to use metatemplates, but there has been a huge backlash against them. 03:36, 25 September 2005 (UTC)

::Afraid I m not familiar with metatemplates... have a reference on them Thanks again, 04:24, 25 September 2005 (UTC)) :::A metatemplate is a term for a template used inside of a template, specifically a template designed to be used in another template, like the old 04:31, 25 September 2005 (UTC)

Wow, if I understand the what links here correctly then you are one of two people using Babel-18. Just thought you deserved some recognition of that. :) -- 18:27, 4 October 2005 (UTC)== Re: re == Sorry, didn t know about the babel box.

Hi - thought I should tell you that I ve just taken to 05:18, 17 October 2005 (UTC) :Untrue. I am using the feature, which guarantees that any pages using the template are not included in the category. 10:47, 17 October 2005 (UTC) ::Hi again - firstly apologies for not realising what was going on with the way you did that category, and sorry also for any annoyance at my stupidity! Can ask one favour though with it - it s very useful to be able to see what stub category stub templates feed into, so please make those categories visible on the templates when you add them to !

With regards to [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.phptitle=Template%3AAlbum_infobox&diff=25692601&oldid=25016032 this edit] of the album infobox, you should be aware that the xhtml specification requires that all values be quoted. I am also puzzled as to why you added an empty pair of noinclude tags at the end. 01:35, 24 October 2005 (UTC) :I thought it was the other way with quotes. Oh well. 01:38, 24 October 2005 (UTC)
