Dynamo_ace's talk page

[edit] About Card Captor Sakura media information

Hi, i was who wrote the info about the Latin America version of CCS, specially the info about Chile, but its seems that you delete it with this reason: Possible destablizing in the latest contribs forces me to revert the article... there is no such thing as a US version (only in WB and Disney's mind there is...for the purposes of flaming!)

Of course that there is a US version, "The Cardcaptors" is a butchered version of the original work of Clamp and it was aired in Latin America without cuts (even their show the pseudo-homosexual relations between Sakura/Tomoyo, Yukito/Touya, etc.) and i guess that comment that isnt flaming at all, at least i dont understand why you delete the "Chile" entry on "Broadcasting Stations". Just writing this for advice you that i dont get any intentions of flaming anything :) and hope that at least can put the name of the channel who broadcast the series in my country. --User:Hayama Akito User talk:Hayama Akito 10:45, 22 Nov 2006 (UTC)

[edit] User:Dynamo ace/User AMG

I have detected and improved the template as per your request. I have also moved it to your userspace and the reason is strictly to evade an unnecesary ruckus. Userboxes are often treated with little dignity these days. --Cat out 22:28, 13 May 2006 (UTC)

Well... did you like it? :) --Cat out 13:09, 17 May 2006 (UTC)

Yes i do, thanks for the recoluring and icon to the userbox, its looks much better. Could you see if it can be catagoraized (like with other userboxes)

Also, i been fidling around with a screencap program and got some good screencaps of Sakyo Mishmia which would be better than the ones on the article, do you want them uploaded?

-Dynamo_ace Talk

Sure, I'll categorise it.

I do not know what to say untill I see the screen cap. :)

[edit] New pic uploaded

I have uploaded the new Sakoyo Mishima picture for its article. Can you check if it is OK?

Link is: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sayoko_Mishima

-Dynamo_ace Talk

Much better image. I have reuploaded it over the old one :) --Cat out 10:35, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Belldandy

We need the belldandy infobox expanded to include both Anime series 1 and Anime series 2 shots. I have tried but failed. -Dynamo_ace Talk

Sure thing, though I feel it is unnecesary to treat the two "series" as seperate entities. --Cat out 14:13, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

Its just the engine was upgraded in season 2, that was all. -Dynamo_ace Talk

Well, I neither object nor support the issue either way, but have modified the infobox to have an "image8". --Cat out 14:18, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

Thanks, do you want to do the edit or me? -Dynamo_ace Talk

You are welcome to do it, I do not mind it either way. --Cat out 15:30, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

It doesn't seem to be working, when i add Image8 it duplicates the image7. -Dynamo_ace Talk

Try now. --Cat out 16:24, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Digimon

Do you ever think 'they' will ever play the Digimon series 1-4 on a common channel, at a common time again? JaJaon 15:48, 1 August 2006 (UTC)

I would hope so, but the current state of play suggests otherwise -Dynamo_ace Talk

[edit] CCS external links

Hi, this is in response to the discussion thread you started in my talk page. According to Wikipedia:External links and Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not, excess links to fansites and fanlistings, etc. should not be added in an article, Wikipedia isn't a web directory, after all. For example, if you look at recent featured articles, such as today's, Simon Byrne, it doesn't contain a single external link at all. If you look at most anime and manga articles at the Japanese Wikipedia, there aren't any fansites whatsoever. The Cardcaptor Sakura article's external links section has been tagged for cleanup, rightfully so, and in my opinion, I think the entire article should not be degraded or considered as being tagged for cleanup merely due to some fansites; you see, it can degrade the efforts of a lot of honest editors who are trying to improve the article's quality.

[edit] Regarding your Yager edit

Please edit without using inflammatory edit summaries. There is no reason to rock the boat when you could have made the same edit without being antagonistic. Chicken Wing 23:00, 26 September 2006 (UTC)

Hi, DynamoAce! I'm here and I read your message. The US Cardcaptor pic is from Michael's Cardcaptors and the one from the Aus Version, I found it on google image search. When do we begin? ~Queenrp

[edit] WP:AIV

I've delisted the entry you placed on AIV regarding User:A_Man_In_Black. There is not OBVIOUS VANDALISM going on that I can see. Please note that A_Man_In_Black is also a wikipedia administrator. This does NOT mean that they are infalible, but that generally they are positive contributors. If you feel there is something going on that can't be worked out on talk pages, please try The Admin Noticeboard Incidents Page. Thank you, — xaosflux ^Talk 22:55, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

I'm really not up for mediating this dispute. If you think an admin is out of line, please start a thread at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents. If these actions are not concerning the use of administrator privledges, then please see Wikipedia:Resolving disputes for options. If you believe that the actions are OBVIOUS VANDALISM then relist on WP:AIV, I won't delist again but leave it for another sysop. Thank you, — xaosflux ^Talk 23:03, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Your vandalism warnings

I've reverted your doubled-up vandalism warnings to my user talk page. Removal of unsourced information is NOT vandalism, and NO vandalism requires a double-warning, PARTICULARLY not a test-3 and a test-4. Please be advised that in future, the definition of vandalism should be construed more narrowly. 138.130.165.178 09:05, 19 October 2006 (UTC)

Please understand that reverting "vandalism" and warning "anonymous vandals" is not a game. By warning me twice, you accepted both that my actions were vandalism, and that they merited the two top warnings, instead of starting with test1. 138.130.165.178 09:34, 19 October 2006 (UTC)

Oh, and I did fill in the editsummary box. 138.130.165.178 09:35, 19 October 2006 (UTC)

You seem to have a very misguided notion of the nature of vandal-fighting. Vandal fighting exists to prevent damage to the encyclopedia from those who are deliberately seeking out to harm it. You obviously seem to think that it's a game. You are seriously mistaken. I really couldn't care less about your "differnent procedure" for warning "vandals". What I do care about is your treatment of me as a vandal, for removing unsourced material from a page. You also inadvertantly double-warned me. Please construe the idea of "vandalism" a little more narrowly in the future. 138.130.165.178 09:26, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

I've responded to your comments, or will do so in the next few minutes. 138.130.165.178 13:01, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

Seriously, Dynamo_Ace, what the hell are you on about? You warn a decent contributor, you don't revert an edit but give the warn... In my days as a vandal fighter (2000+ edits on my actual account, don't ask - take me to MedCab if you must) we assumed good faith, knew what vandalism was (which you seem to have totally lost here) and only warned if we felt an edit deserved to be reverted. "Don't shoot the messenger," an old saying, and one totally irrelevant here. If you're in CVU, or do a fair bit of RC patrol, I'd question just how negative an impace you're having on Wikipedia's image when incorrectly dealing with newcomers.

Sure, there are vandals. We have Lupin's tool, we have VP2, we have MWT, we have VS, VF, everything. We revert. Life goes on. We see a decent edit. We feel happy. We give the person a {{smile}}. But under no circumstances do we ignore rules with no real justification as to why. Policy has been established for years, and is there for a reason. So please, don't bite the newcomers. Last time I checked, removing unjustified, irrelevant, idiotic warning templates was acceptable. And its his user page. Be reasonable. --59.167.223.241 13:12, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

This debate is now settled, i have pardoned the anon user and allowed him\her to remove the comments. IMO, i was acting rashly. --Dynamo_ace 13:24, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Vandalism warnings and WP:AIV

Hello, I noticed one of the reports you made to WP:AIV, and saw that the user you reported was not properly warned. When warning vandals you should use the test1, test2, test3... progression of warnings, instead of immediately using test4. Then report them to WP:AIV if they have been warned up to test4, and vandalise again. For more info see WP:VAND. Thanks, Prodego ^talk 16:23, 19 November 2006 (UTC)

It is very important to assume good faith, and using the test message progression is an extention of this. You should not warn a user until the first message was read (never give two warnings at the same time), and you should always make sure a user isn't just testing, and is definitly vandalising. Here you warned a user twice for a single blanking, and the user had already reverted the edit. Here a {{selftest}} warning should be used, pointing the newbie to the sandbox. Please read more about this at WP:VAND, it has information like this there. If you have any questions about this, please let me know, Prodego ^talk 22:03, 19 November 2006 (UTC)

Yes, in fact it is necessary that we treat these newbies that represent some percent of the 'vandals' well, so that they can become new members of the community, and allow us to keep up with the expansion of the encyclopedia. Prodego ^talk 22:24, 19 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Couple of reminders

Hi,

When using certain template tags on talk pages, don't forget to substitute with text by adding subst: to the template tag. For example, use {{subst:test}} instead of {{test}}. This reduces server load and prevents accidental blanking of the template.

Also: Hello. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. You may also click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you!
