When you have time

I've been approached by an editor and requested to weigh in on a subject about which I have very little knowledge. You can find the message here. I have looked over the edits of Moosa888 (talk · contribs) and, while they don't appear intentionally malicious, they do appear to fall short in form and function (especially noting that many edits involved GAs). Could you take a look and offer an opinion? I do not have an aptitude for fiction/fantasy plot description and do not want to bite a well-intentioned but unskilled editor. Any advice would be welcome. Thanks Tiderolls 01:02, 1 March 2011 (UTC)

Trolls

I'd reccomend SPI, if you haven't already. Obvious socks are obvious, and that might allow for them to be blocked on sight. - The Bushranger One ping only 06:42, 1 March 2011 (UTC)

He only has so many account names left. He's gone through five or six already. Also checkuser hasn't found anything useful to block.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 06:43, 1 March 2011 (UTC)
Ah. I guess the duck test will have to do. - The Bushranger One ping only 06:44, 1 March 2011 (UTC)

I have to discuss something with you

Will you check my talk page please. Intoronto1125 (talk) 15:58, 1 March 2011 (UTC)

TAR 18

Okay.btw the first leg (aka leg 1) must two episodes (not one episode).But the leg isn't same with episode.The first leg with one episode wasn't finished in the place pit stop.

yeah tar or tara or tar latino was ever one leg have 2 episode.

Akuindo (talk) 05:06, 3 March 2011 (UTC)

TAR18 has had two legs. On the CBS website Phil has been saying "So you've been through two legs". Also don't put a table for no reason here. I don't know what else you're saying because English is clearly not your first language.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 05:13, 3 March 2011 (UTC)

Short Response...

I have notified the user that attempted to add Dutch versions of the episode in the following article: List of Pokémon: Black & White episodes. See also the talk page linked here. I will keep watch of the page.CHAK 001 20:07, 4 March 2011 (UTC)

Thank you.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 20:17, 4 March 2011 (UTC)

TAR 18

Hi, sorry, why did you revert my edit on the team history for The Amazing Race 18?

You added too much information.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 00:08, 6 March 2011 (UTC)

File:VictiniHero2.PNG

I Just Uploaded a better poster For Victini and The _____ Hero: Series. Are there any problems with it? LTC. K-O Capt (talk) 20:53, 13 March 2011 (UTC)

You shouldn't have uploaded the other ones too, but everything is okay.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 22:05, 13 March 2011 (UTC)
Could Those be used for any article? — Preceding unsigned comment added by LTC. K-O Capt (talkcontribs)
No.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 22:17, 13 March 2011 (UTC)

Please calm down

You're WP:BITEing Intoronto1125 and teetering on the edge of going from a civility violation into the realm of personal attacks.

I respect what you're trying to do with the content here, and I don't disagree on those issues, but if you can't explain Intoronto's issues to him in a constructive manner please ask for help at a noticeboard rather than abuse him.

You can remove things like Dianaa's note off your talk page, but doing so with a "Piss off" edit summary just makes things worse.

If you're really so angry at the moment that this is the only way you can interact with people here, take the day off. Please.

Thanks.

This whole thing is getting unnecessarily blown out of proportion because Intoronto1125 was upset at my sue of colorful vernacular not directed towards him. I am getting tired of him interfering in my attempts to improve the project because he does not seem to understand what I say to him the first time and he persists in continuing in the less constructive but what I know are good faith edits.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 18:53, 16 March 2011 (UTC)
You seem to have aimed a lot of colorful vernacular at his edits (and him, increasingly) and then at Dianaa in the edit summary.
WP:CIVIL doesn't establish a profanity police state by any means, but there's a big difference between a fleeting expletive and an ongoing apparently more personalized string of edits. If I thought he was being oversensitive and that there was no reasonable interpretation he could have made that the comments were abusive I would have said so to him. However, reading the series of comments, I got the other impression.
If you didn't mean that, and can adjust to engaging with him forcefully but not abusively, then carry on. As I said, no issue with the content stuff. I know you, you're a good guy, and I trust that you're not doing this to pick on him. Georgewilliamherbert (talk) 19:00, 16 March 2011 (UTC)
I am not trying to pick on him. It is just that every time I glance at the article in question he has modified it in a way that is not generaly helpful, and that means I have to revert the edit and then explain to him why it was wrong, but then he doesn't think I'm right about the situation and then goes on to revert me again. On WP:WQA he accuses me of adding these three words without a consensus, when that information was explicitly conveyed by the source material. I should not have used "piss off" in regards to Diannaa's comment (I was not aware at the time that Intoronto1125 had requested administrative assistance on this matter), but this whole situation is going mountain out of a mole hill and that is getting exasperating, especially when he has suddenly gotten on my case about not correcting typos immediately.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 19:03, 16 March 2011 (UTC)
If you honestly don't see what's wrong with the situation, you should take a break to cool down. They asked you to stop using profanity. Intentionally continuing to do so is bordering on disruption and uncivil. It doesn't matter how you feel, you've been here long enough to know that. I would recommend you respect their request starting now. Swarm X 19:08, 16 March 2011 (UTC)
It is how I write in a non formal setting. I do not mean to be rude, but it is just what I do.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 19:09, 16 March 2011 (UTC)
I know. Just try not to lose consideration of others. Regards, Swarm X 19:22, 16 March 2011 (UTC)

Source material

The source material you provided does not say that it was in that order. Intoronto1125 (talk) 19:13, 16 March 2011 (UTC)

Watch the explanation of the Roadblock, again. Phil very clearly states that the correct order is the way that the race conducted by the Buddha was finished.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 19:14, 16 March 2011 (UTC)

Discussion of MLM/Direct Selling on Vector Marketing

Hi, there is a discussion regarding the latest dispute on whether or not vector is MLM or Direct marketing. See the talk page for details. Phearson (talk) 22:33, 16 March 2011 (UTC)

I really only want to get involved if it's COI puffery.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 23:56, 16 March 2011 (UTC)

Samurai

Well, apparently the Samurai Power Rangers page is going to be deleted... ~Marvelous2011~ ( ★ AlienX2009 ★ ) 13:43, 18 March 2011 (UTC)

Someone does not know the proper policies. The pages are not gonna be deleted.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 17:44, 18 March 2011 (UTC)
I hope not. Otherwise, it ould have been a big waste of time. --~Marvelous2011~ ( ★ AlienX2009 ★ ) 21:39, 18 March 2011 (UTC)

Epic Meal Time

Any particular reason you decided to leave the episode list on Epic Meal Time? I see you removed the summaries copied from YouTube, but is there any reason the whole list shouldn't be removed? For a weekly show, it'll get quite long quite quickly, and I don't think it's necessary. GorillaWarfare talkcontribs 18:33, 19 March 2011 (UTC)

The episode summaries were copyvios. You can do what you want with the episode list.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 18:44, 19 March 2011 (UTC)

Lists of Pokemon

Just wondering, why do you always revert stuff like this? If there is something wrong with it, then fix it. If you revert every edit that is the least bit wrong, then the lists will never grow. I can't write every entry. Blake (Talk·Edits) 16:44, 20 March 2011 (UTC)

Not sourced. Not properly formatted. Full of game mechanic level trivia. I know it's going to take forever, but I just want to be sure the best quality content is up.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 19:04, 20 March 2011 (UTC)
You might as well delete a lot of the content in all the lists then, because many of them are not sourced. It doesn't have to be sourced if it's general descriptions or what seems to be Pokedex entries. Trivial "blah has high special attack" can be removed, but a lot of what you are reverting can easily be fixed, or left alone. Low quality is better then no quality. I also don't see why these lists need to be "up to par" when they are currently in an incomplete state. Any help is good help. At least say why what you are reverting is bad. It isn't terribly hard, and most of the time only takes one word. Blake (Talk·Edits) 20:24, 20 March 2011 (UTC)
Incomplete and not word for word Pokedex entries is better than anything else.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 20:32, 20 March 2011 (UTC)

Goggle-V and GoGoFive

Is there a reason why for one series we use the roman numeral "V" and the other we spell out "Five", as they both end in ファイブ? Just curious if I'm missing something. JPG-GR (talk) 19:35, 20 March 2011 (UTC)

"GOGOFIVE" is on the toys and other print materials. I don't know how if "Goggle Five" exists in that regard.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 19:39, 20 March 2011 (UTC)
Ah, didn't know that. Thanks! JPG-GR (talk) 19:48, 20 March 2011 (UTC)

List of Pokemon characters

I didn't notice until now, but a couple weeks ago, you changed the naming system of the Gym leaders and E4. Did you think to fix the redirects which linked there? This is just a friendly reminder to remember to think about redirects linking to the old system when changing to a new system. Thanks, Blake (Talk·Edits) 01:53, 23 March 2011 (UTC)

I don't know what you mean by "changed the naming system".—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 18:34, 23 March 2011 (UTC)
In these edits you changed "Kanto" to "Kanto Gym Leaders" and "Kanto Members" to "Kanto Elite Four". This broke the redirects for all Gym Leaders and E4 members. As you can see from my contributions, I fixed all the redirects, and then went on every generic name page like "Sabrina" or "Wallace" and fixed all the links that liked to "List of Pokemon characters#blahblah" to be "Name (Pokemon)". Blake (Talk·Edits) 18:49, 23 March 2011 (UTC)
Oh. I'm sorry.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 18:50, 23 March 2011 (UTC)

TAR18

I believe the Victoria Memorial was mentioned during the introduction of the task, so I think it should be added to the main article. Intoronto1125 (talk) 21:56, 28 March 2011 (UTC)

They didn't visit it. They visited the park that also has the memorial in it.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 22:24, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
I know but they mentioned the park outside of Victoria Memorial so we should mention it under leg 6. Intoronto1125 (talk) 22:26, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
Very well, but it shouldn't solely be a reason so you can say that the Pit Stops are similar.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 22:29, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
I forgot to mention that I was over that as it is clearly two differnt spots but similar, but under the Leg 6 subsection Victoria Memorial is no where to be found. Its there now though. Intoronto1125 (talk) 01:30, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
