Uprising

Though I agree that Democracy probably isn't best for BP, I believe that everybody should fight for what they think is right. Is there some way I could PM you (I can't get on to the BP forums and I don't even know if I could do that there). I just want to say something in private. Rpp 02:28, 11 June 2008 (UTC)Rpp

Wait... What happened? It showed too many things. Rpp 02:31, 11 June 2008 (UTC)Rpp

take it easy on the submit button! -- MAGNEDETH 02:34, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

I can't remember 5 Seconds ago! I'm not sure I over-pressed it. Rpp 02:39, 11 June 2008 (UTC)Rpp

If you want to PM me, the forum is set up for it... --FabuVinny ^{|Talk Page|} 15:24, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

I suspect that it's Fabu-Vinny there too? Rpp 18:56, 11 June 2008 (UTC)Rpp

Without the dash. I regularly post in the Bulbapedia forum and am a global moderdator so it shouldn't be too hard to fine me. --FabuVinny ^{|Talk Page|} 20:02, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

Check It

Goukazaru appears to be using his talk page as a user page. -- MAGNEDETH 02:41, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

So at what point does it become unacceptable? A lot of users are putting tags on their talk pages "until the ban ends," and nobody does anything about it. --Martonimos_{((Argh|Blargh))} 02:48, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

one or two tags, any maybe some notes to the user doesnt bother me, but, if its blatant, as in, taking up more of the page than actual conversation, then i feel it becomes unacceptable. but thats me. -- MAGNEDETH 02:55, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

I sometimes use my talk page as a sandbox (I just don't really know how to make one.) I also sometimes put tags on it for reference or as a joke. But nothing longer than a conversation. Rpp 02:56, 11 June 2008 (UTC)Rpp

At this point, it's sad. User Talk pages now are flooding the recent changes. Boywonder01 03:01, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

Yep, Hai, Oui, Si (Whatever other languages). Particularly because of me (←Also I know I use that too much...) Rpp 03:09, 11 June 2008 (UTC)Rpp

We ought to tell everyone with usertags on their pages to just put the code in a text document and keep it on their computer. Even if they can't do that, they should just write down the tags they want and keep that list for when the ban is lifted. This problem may become more serious than it seems; it is, after all, a partial circumvention of the ban. --Martonimos_{((Argh|Blargh))} 04:46, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

It wouldn't be that simple for people because some people can't get it through their heads. It's not rocket science, just put your tags on Word or Processor! Boywonder01 08:06, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

User talk:Goukazaru . Hes turning it into a user page..........Emperor's Cookies 16:08, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

Both TTE and SP252 have stated their positions against userpage content on user talk pages (and even though Fabu-Vinny hasn't responded to this conversation yet, he did remove content from that guy's page). --Martonimos_{((Argh|Blargh))} 03:14, 12 June 2008 (UTC)

Resigning

I don't think I'm ready for editing Bulbapedia in the long run. I have other things to do. Fabu-Vinny, could you delete my account? I'm considering leaving the Users.BlueJirachiWishMaker 19:00, 14 June 2008 (UTC)

No Fabu-vinny, don't delete her page, let me try and convince her to stay. Guardian of Earth 19:11, 14 June 2008 (UTC)

We're not going to delete anyone's account. If you don't want to contribute anymore, we can't force you to stay but your account is still tied to the edits you have done.

Plus, I don't have the power to delete accounts anyway. --FabuVinny ^{|Talk Page|} 20:55, 14 June 2008 (UTC)

Template:LinkSprite

The purpose of the template was to provide a sprite of the Pokémon that linked to its page. I had to hotlink because the Archives add those random numbers before each image name. --S^hi_ny ^No_ct^ow_l 14:52, 15 June 2008 (UTC)

Stealing bandwidth is still a big no-no. We link to the name of the species near the images anyway so there isn't much need for the template. --FabuVinny ^{|Talk Page|} 15:11, 15 June 2008 (UTC)

It's still better to have the image itself link to the page. It's annoying how images link back to the stupid useless page instead of being able to link to an actual page. --S^hi_ny ^No_ct^ow_l 15:13, 15 June 2008 (UTC)

Good point, I keep having to hit back when jumping pages either from missing the link and/or clicking the image. Gywall^(Talk) 15:17, 15 June 2008 (UTC)

There are some really complicated tricks with CSS and such that allow you to use standard image links but still link to any page you want. It's probably a Wikipedia template somewhere — but I don't recommend stealing the code. Maybe there's an extension... - 振霖_T 15:24, 15 June 2008 (UTC)

I had that template once, but it was annoying in that, instead of having the image link to the page, there was text in front of the image that linked to the page. Yeah, it works, but it looks weird if you highlight it. --S^hi_ny ^No_ct^ow_l 15:26, 15 June 2008 (UTC)

Sockpuppet

I believe User:Frazer Ketchum is a suckpuppet account for Sailor Earth. Sailor Earth has been in trouble for removing comments from peoples talk pages, and now Frazer Ketchum claiming to have hacked Sailor Earth's account. If you look at the contribution histories and talk pages of both users you will see that Frazer Ketchum has been in trouble for some of the exact same stunts Sailor Earth has been pulling. Trainer-c 15:28, 15 June 2008 (UTC)

Frazer Ketchum

Frazer Ketchum should be banned for hacking Sailor Earth's account. --S^hi_ny ^No_ct^ow_l 15:46, 15 June 2008 (UTC)
