User:TheOrgy

I asked TheOrgy to stop editing your user talk page to call you silly names, and he complained that you've been misnaming him as "TheOgry". I said I'd ask you to stop. Please stop upsetting him, and try to get along with him. --Tony Sidaway|Talk 20:50, 13 December 2005 (UTC)Reply

  • That was a misspelling error on my part, and if you look at his talkpage, I apologized. How is it insulting to make a spelling error of "g" and "r"...? TheOrgy is simply trying his best to dig up false claims on false personal attacks.-MegamanZero 20:54, 13 December 2005 (UTC)Reply

On Iori Yagami

Instead of a poll

Instead of a poll, which obviously in this kind of case only produces division, I'd like MegamanZero and TheOrgy each to write a 100-word defence of their favored versions.

Two rules:

  • You must not mention the other person or his version; concentrate on the good points of your own favored version.
  • You *must* stick to the 100 word limit. I won't tolerate long, unreadable tracts. Write short sentences that emphasize the good points.

I'd like to see if we can get some agreement on what is good about each version. --Tony Sidaway|Talk 22:55, 13 December 2005 (UTC)Reply

I am glad Tony is handling the matter, I failed you as a good mentor. :( --Cool CatTalk|@ 11:45, 14 December 2005 (UTC)Reply
I think you got a little hostile about the situation too quick, but you proceeded to put the incident on the admin board and helped as best you could. You are a very respected mentor in my eyes, Cool Cat, and do not think otherwise. :)-MegamanZero 11:47, 14 December 2005 (UTC)Reply

Thesis MK- II

Mind looking at this, and telling me your opinion on the talkpage..? Thanks..! -MegamanZero 16:37, 14 December 2005 (UTC)Reply

I really dont know anything about the subject. It would not be right for me to comment... --Cool CatTalk|@ 16:46, 14 December 2005 (UTC)Reply

You can achieve this by

  1. clicking "preferences"
  2. sellecting "raw signature" check box
  3. replacing stuff in the textbox captioned: "Nickname:" with something like [[User:MegamanZero|MegamanZero]] [[User talk:MegamanZero|Talk]]

Nicole (DOA)

Following the press release that bungie made regarding the halo based DOA character, I have created and polished off the article for her. If you have the time please take a look at it, as I'd like to get some opinions regarding the article and anything I may have overlooked. Thanks a bunch.--Oni Ookami AlfadorTalk|@ 05:13, 15 December 2005 (UTC)Reply

You did a fine job. I'm wondering where you got all that information, though, since such in-depth analysis's can't usually be made when the game hasn't been released, but hey, that just shows how good you are! :) Also, about Mr.Sidaway's talkpage, he doesn't really dabble in video games or anthing like we do, so you perhaps shouldn't ask questions like that.. :) -MegamanZero |transerver 05:55, 15 December 2005 (UTC)Reply

I got all the information from the press release at the bottom of the article, coupled a smidge with with my own (want to call it expertise but wont) knowledge of the Halo universe.--Oni Ookami AlfadorTalk|@ 06:05, 15 December 2005 (UTC)Reply

Re: revert

No problem, cheers. Christopher Parham (talk) 07:47, 15 December 2005 (UTC)Reply

Howdy

I saw you had posted a couple of times on my talk page. I'd be happy to help you, but I am not very familiar with the types of articles you tend to edit, so as far as content disputes, I may be of little help. However, if you link me to specific arguments I can at least leave my opinion.--MONGO 12:45, 15 December 2005 (UTC)Reply

I'll finish up everyone else tommorow; I have to construct drafts and thesis for every character's personality section. Now is time for sleep, however... Need anything else..? :) -MegamanZero |transerver 22:58, 14 December 2005 (UTC)Reply
Thanks. :), oh is it posible for you to use the template rather than the table, it really does the same thing, template requires less effort. :P --Cool CatTalk|@ 16:06, 15 December 2005 (UTC)Reply
Actually, I think the template is harder, because I can't keep track of the categories whilst I am writing. -_- -MegamanZero |transerver 16:17, 15 December 2005 (UTC)Reply
Hmm, how I do it is I copy an existing characters bio and overwrite it with data from tables you provide. Of course I am not complaining but you know... :) --Cool CatTalk|@ 17:10, 15 December 2005 (UTC)Reply

You may want to vote on this. Assuming you dont have objections to article recieveing a FAC status, this one is one step away from featured list status. It needs 4 votes. Feel free to review the critaria before voting. :) --Cool CatTalk|@ 17:10, 15 December 2005 (UTC)Reply

How do you Like the archive infobox layout that I stole borrowed from Tony..? Nice,eh..? -MegamanZero|Talk 09:44, 16 December 2005 (UTC)Reply

A Thank You

 
For doing what I always wanted to do with the Tekken articles (but was too reluctant to), and for all your videogame contributions in general, I, LordViD, award you this Barnstar.

Thx

I only just noticed: Thx for reverting the vandalism of my userpage yesterday; it is much appreciated. And sorry about the outcome of your RfA; I'm sure it well work out next time. Lectonar 12:33, 16 December 2005 (UTC)Reply

Why did you move the wikibooks links?

Why did you feel it was necessary to go through all of the street fighter characters and move the wikibooks link from the top to the bottom? The point of putting them at the top was to alert people to the project and get them to start contributing. With the link moved to the bottom, hardly anyone will notice it. Unless you can defend your decision, I'm going to move them back up to the top.Plotor 19:18, 16 December 2005 (UTC)Reply

  • Sorry about not alerting you or anything, but in the current situation and my concensus, it should be obvious. I'm speculating that when you inserted the wikibook templates into the articles, you didn't use the preview button did you..? When you simply when in, and (apparently) disregarded the text's conformity, you should have noticed that sticking the template up top forces the character sprites, pictures, and sometimes contents link into the text and in a appaling manner that renders the nearby text unreadable. Concerning your query and concensus regarding people noticing the project, I'm sure it won't impede that, they just need to look at the bottom, and the wikibook link, being a well, link, belongs in the "external links" section anyway. -MegamanZero|Talk 19:24, 16 December 2005 (UTC)Reply

Bantha vandalism

Heheh. Yeah, I remember that. I was going to add it, but forgot. Thanks for adding it! Another too funny not to list entry, yet I forgot to list it! :O ;) The Wookieepedian 19:59, 16 December 2005 (UTC)Reply

Me as well. I have a "odd edits" section, similar to your "too funny not to list" section, and I'm going to add it in as well. BTW, take a look at my odd edits section (found here) and tell me what you think of them. Finally, notice anything different about my user and talk pages..? :) -MegamanZero|Talk 20:06, 16 December 2005 (UTC)Reply
Yeah, it's cool the way you've got your user and talk page formatted. And I'm going to add that list of strange edits to my "too funny not to list" section. The Wookieepedian 20:10, 16 December 2005 (UTC)Reply
Not a bad idea. :) -MegamanZero|Talk 20:12, 16 December 2005 (UTC)Reply

KoF Template

Yo MMZ, your template looks good. I'll take a better look at it later when I've got more time. For now I've added a category to the template so that every character you add this to will automatically be placed in the SNK Characters category. I couldn't find a specific King of Fighters Characters category ... perhaps you should create one ;) Cheers, Jacoplane 13:40, 17 December 2005 (UTC)Reply

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)Reply

I fixed that one for you. :) --Cool CatTalk|@ 22:20, 17 December 2005 (UTC)Reply

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. --Cool CatTalk|@ 22:20, 17 December 2005 (UTC)Reply
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)Reply
Jimbos userpage is my design, some of tonys userpage is also my design and my own page is also my design ;). --Cool CatTalk|@ 01:58, 18 December 2005 (UTC)Reply
: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)Reply

Wait just a damn minute...

Wait, what have I been thinking..? You've been a great and creative mind at wikipedia, and you've helped so many of us make great-looking userpages... Here, have this barnestar for your creative mind.!

Thank you for the barn star! --Cool CatTalk|@ 05:57, 18 December 2005 (UTC)Reply

P.S. Could you answer my question, please..? :) -MegamanZero|Talk 02:50, 18 December 2005 (UTC)Reply

The copyright thing doesnt bug me at all (its not like I own the copyrights), you dont need to apologies. I just wanted to warn you before someone else ;). Oh, I am not all that great, I make some prety nasty mistakes from time to time. I try to learn fro from them. :).

Your comment...

Maru: "Wikipedia is not paper."

  • Indeed. However, this was something asked of me by Tony in hopes of reaching a concenus for the article. Seeing that my first composition was more directed toward the Orgy's actions, I reconsidered and constructed a new thesis to depict my respective view on the article. As you can see, it was clearly shown at the top of the page, and in the end, I proved my point and the article has been conformed to a higher standard of quality. Just thought I should clear that misnomenor up. -MegamanZero|Talk 17:05, 17 December 2005 (UTC)Reply
I was specifically referring to: "Also, the fact that my version cuts down on GB and space consumption rectifies its reason for not putting a strain on the servers." Which both doesn't make sense to me, and if you were trying to say that a smaller version was better, I strongly disagree (I am very much of the more is better school- superfluous data can easily be filtered out by a reader, and often turns out not to be superfluous, whereas missing useful data cannot be filtered back in, and often the lack of it goes un-noticed, so the reader couldn't fix it even should they have wished to.) --Maru (talk) Contribs 01:30, 18 December 2005 (UTC)Reply
I see. My mistake, but I still agree with my reason for a smaller article. In this case, the exceeded use of images and quotes had no business in the article, as to put it quite simply, they didn't acomplish anything. So, why consume space and GB when there's no reason to..? -MegamanZero|Talk 01:58, 18 December 2005 (UTC)Reply
Now here we are disagreeing on the quality of the content itself; I supported removing the pics because of copyright considerations, but elsewhere we part paths. --Maru (talk) Contribs 02:03, 18 December 2005 (UTC)Reply
  • As as the quality of the article is concerned, I believe we agree: It still needs some work. In paticular, the text still reaks of POV and sounds very un-encyclopedic....

Also, concerning the template, you said why "didn't I make a full-fleged one?" I had, and I have inserted into other KOF articles as well. -MegamanZero|Talk 02:20, 18 December 2005 (UTC)Reply

BTW, the template can be found here.-MegamanZero|Talk 02:42, 18 December 2005 (UTC)Reply
Yeah, but it doesn't seem to be used at all, according to whatlinkshere. --Maru (talk) Contribs 02:51, 18 December 2005 (UTC)Reply
Yes it does. :) See my contributions. -MegamanZero|Talk 02:53, 18 December 2005 (UTC)Reply
I think what we have here is a failure to communicate- when I say use a template, I mean tuck all that html code away on a [[Template:FOO]] page, and only invoke it with {{FOO|bar|baz|etc}}, not do a cut and paste and fill in the approriate values. --Maru (talk) Contribs 02:57, 18 December 2005 (UTC)Reply
I assure you, our cummunication is fine. The reason why I do not do it like that, is because it makes it harder to list and keep track of information while I fill in the table's respective contents, so I simply copy and paste the template on the article.-MegamanZero|Talk 03:00, 18 December 2005 (UTC)Reply
There are reasons copy and paste is deprecated... syncing the many uses with an updated template, ease of use, and just plain aesthetics of the source code, among others. --Maru (talk) Contribs 03:15, 18 December 2005 (UTC)Reply
Really? I always just copy the actual template over from a reference article (typically Yoda, for {{Sw character}}) and fill in the values. Even easier than copy/paste of the actual html and wikimarkup of the original template. (Plus it is vastly more easy to understand and add to.) --Maru (talk) Contribs 04:42, 18 December 2005 (UTC)Reply
  • Oh no, no.....the actual information itself it not the problem...its just when you're filling in the "updated" template, there's no values to look to when you insert the actual information. It's akin to looking at a high school test and having to answer the questions, but there's no questions to look at... That's why its so...so difficult. -MegamanZero|Talk 05:48, 18 December 2005 (UTC)Reply
