Just checking in with you. I got an email that said that you posted a comment on my talkpage, but I'm not seeing it, or maybe it's not showing up. I did want to express my condolences about your userpage. Another way to look at it is, it really is a huge compliment to you and what a brilliant coder you are, that so many people wanted to have a similar userpage to yours (or at least similar features on their own userpage), but I can understand how frustrating it must be to see your stuff showing up on other people's userpages and them not even asking you if it is okay that they borrow it, and then on top of that, modifying it little if at all, so it is obvious that it is your coding. I truly hope that you can find some kind of compromise, such as, perhaps, protecting your userpage from editing from anyone but yourself (actually, that might not be a bad idea for ALL users, something for the admins to think about...).

:Sceptile Maniac had coppied theirs entire talk page to yours when they put that other stuff there as well. Jello was simply removing the stuff that shouldn't have been there. With Jello's userpage, the issue there is that protecting it doesn't stop people from looking at the coding and stealing it, it just stops them from saving changes, so protection wouldn't really have helped in this case. And in general, pages can only be protected so that certain user groups can edit them, rather than it being a user-by-user basis. In other words, there isn't a way to protect ordinary users' pages so that the user themselves can still edit them while other users can't. <span class="sc">[[User:Werdnae|<span style="color:#2D4B98;">Werdnae</span>]]</span> <small>[[User talk:Werdnae|<span style="color:#009000;">(talk)</span>]]</small> 01:31, 15 October 2010 (UTC) | :Sceptile Maniac had coppied theirs entire talk page to yours when they put that other stuff there as well.

Just wanted to say sorry for thinking Shell Blade had been used in the newest episode. I saw in a screen what I thought was the animation for Shell Blade but was just Water Gun at an angle. I feel bad since I may have helped make you get extra annoyed at people adding Shell Blade to Mijumaru's moves list to the point of threatening a ban.

== Template overlap, again == | |||
Hey Jel, remember I discussed the template overlap problem few months ago, it's happening again. Last time, you fixed it so I thought it's better to inform you about this. Just to be clear, I'm using Chrome and noticed this issue in it only while it's perfectly fine in firefox or opera. <span style="color:#FF0">♫♪</span>[[User:Adyniz|<span style="color:#00FA9A;">'''Ady'''</span>]][[User talk:Adyniz|<span style="color:#9F9;">'''Niz'''</span>]]<span style="color:#FF0">♪♫</span> 05:45, 17 October 2010 (UTC) | |||
:Yeah hey, I could have easily fixed by removing the width parameter but...it's being used. Anyways, if you see a page messed up because of this template, just remove the width=something when using the template. Also, could you use Photobucket or imageshack next time to host your files?

== Issues... == | |||
First, Hi Jello. I was just posting my response on Ataro's page here so you can see it. | |||
("Yes, perhaps I should have brought this up in Talk:Iris (anime). Next time I'll do that. I believed I gave a pretty good explanation that what she is wearing is a Dashiki.") | |||
I'll make sure to discuss it next time but this time I believe we discussed it that it is Dashiki. I'm just saddened that this caused such a uproar... -_- [[User:Crystal Power|Crystal Power]] 20:01, 29 October 2010 (UTC) | |||
:Don't worry about it, I saw your reply. Things like this do cause an uproar because Bulbapedia is very much against any speculation. In order to make assumptions, proof needs to be given, and now you know that. So, just bring it up on the article's talk page. <span style="color:red">—<small>♥</small></span> <b>[[User:Jello|<span style="color:orange;">Jello</span>]][[User Talk:Jello|<span style="color:#3FA9D0;"><sup>talk</sup></span>]]</b> 20:03, 29 October 2010 (UTC) | |||
:Alright, I just really wish that since we talked about this already that trivia can stay. I promise I'll make sure to discuss things in the articles talk page in the future. You know it's that I seen that [[Caitlin]] has a similar trivia. "Caitlin dresses in the Japanese himegyaru ("princess gal") style." yet there is no proof. I posted the proof I even edited it to say only "that it resembles a Dashiki". I felt that I was attacked so quickly because I said ''African'' Dashiki. I notice people replied and said "she's not Black", the funny thing is I never said that? I was feeling very curious about those response I didn't try to break the rules. I hope you can understand this. [[User:Crystal Power|Crystal Power]] 20:17, 29 October 2010 (UTC) | |||
::If I may interject, Jell asked me to reply. I looked over the isshu, and to be fair for all parties, I looked it up on Google and Wikipedia. To be honest, I don't see the resemblance between them and Iris's shirt. However, that is me and what I see. You see that she is wearing this dashiki. We both have conflicting views and we could argue about it forever. However, it would be best to just not add it or bring it up with an admin to add it if they see fit. However, if one person is just constantly adding it in, an admin might remove it as an opinion because one user is adding it in. As for Caitlin, I did look it up, and they did look extremely similar, however, I do believe that the look is up to the viewer to interpret. I hope this has clarified some bits of information.

== Regarding manual editing of Pokémon disambiguation pages == | |||
So, it seems you guys have decided to make Pokémon pages direct to the species. It pains me to witness users doing it by hand. Are there really no programmers on the team that know how to send the form remotely? It would be as simple as copying the HTML for the submission form, modifying a few field values based on the Pokémon's name, and then adding the piping to the redirect before submitting. This could essentially be done for all 649 Pokémon in one fell swoop. [[User:Hexagon Theory|Hexagon Theory]] 08:23, 7 November 2010 (UTC) | |||

Thanks Hexagon Theory. I added color to the page [[List of Pokémon by egg group]]. {{unsigned|Cool649}} | |||
== Regarding Generation V sprites... == | |||
So, I set up a convenient macro system to upload the Generation V sprites fairly rapidly only to eventually consider that perhaps the earlier Pokémon had been left empty on purpose; I imagine you're planning to eventually have all the G5 stuff be [[http://www.arkeis.com/animatedsprites.html APNG]], no? —<font face="Times New Roman">'''[[User:Hexagon Theory|<span style="color:#ab2742;">hexagon</span>]][[User_talk:Hexagon Theory|<span style="color:#60809f;">THEORY</span>]]'''</font> 15:57, 13 November 2010 (UTC) | |||
:It's actually fine to upload them static, but yeah, eventually we do plan on having them be apng. What macro system are you using? I would love it if everything uploaded by itself too. It's actually pretty tiresome to upload all these sprites manually, hence why we're still missing quite a few of them. Anyways, whatever you're doing, keep on doing it, it's really helpful. Thanks! <span style="color:red">—<small>♥</small></span> <b>[[User:Jello|<span style="color:orange;">Jello</span>]][[User Talk:Jello|<span style="color:#3FA9D0;"><sup>talk</sup></span>]]</b> 16:56, 13 November 2010 (UTC) | |||
::Hmm, it's a tad off-putting that you're okay with static even though you intend to eventually have animated; it makes it seem as if you reckon that day is rather far off—speaking personally, I imagine the spriting community will have everything done in a month. Either way, I don't mind uploading the statics and will continue to do so after a short nap. The macro is written using AutoHotKey, which is a small program that lets you "talk" to your computer in all sorts of ways. Essentially, I'm having a user JavaScript file run in the background, pluck out the relevant data (back or front, number, male/female, shiny) from the filename being uploaded and having it fill in the description accordingly. Then, I'm using that same information to concatenate the filename required to grab the requisite sprite from my machine; I'm putting that data into a dummy input field so that AHK can simulate a click and copy; from there, AHK simply "clicks" the blank upload field, simulates a paste and Enter to submit the form, then the file is uploaded. The only kink I ran into is having it know which blank file it should try to upload next; seeing as how there is so much variation due to some files being uploaded already and others not, as well as some Pokémon having gender differences, the script has to simulate going back two pages to determine the next red link to click. From there, it starts the process all over again. : ) It's really rather endearing to watch it work, but it's still quite a bummer that I don't have restricted FTP access of some sort; the entire Generation V set of sprites could be updated in no more than two or three minutes. —<font face="Times New Roman">'''[[User:Hexagon Theory|<span style="color:#ab2742;">hexagon</span>]][[User_talk:Hexagon Theory|<span style="color:#60809f;">THEORY</span>]]'''</font> 17:05, 13 November 2010 (UTC) | |||
:::Huh, that's really interesting, although a bit complicated. About the static sprites, it's better to have ''something'' rather than nothing, right? The spriting community animates in .gif anyway, so we'd still be stuck converting them to apng. Not many people know how to animate in the apng format, so it's usually one person doing them all. Not many people upload either. FTP access would make this a hundred times easier, but you know how wikis are. :P Thanks for explaining things. <span style="color:red">—<small>♥</small></span> <b>[[User:Jello|<span style="color:orange;">Jello</span>]][[User Talk:Jello|<span style="color:#3FA9D0;"><sup>talk</sup></span>]]</b> 17:31, 13 November 2010 (UTC) | |||
::::Only the description I put to it is complicated; essentially, it's a computer being made to do something exactly the way a human would, only slightly more efficiently. : ) Regarding static, yes, I suppose anything's better than a blank space. Now, on the matter of converting, I can deduce from the way you spoke there that the administration here at Bulbapedia doesn't consist of a single programmer; this notion utterly baffles me. Rest assured, when the time comes, I'd be happy to make perl turn all the .gif files into APNGs automagically. ^_^ —<font face="Times New Roman">'''[[User:Hexagon Theory|<span style="color:#ab2742;">hexagon</span>]][[User_talk:Hexagon Theory|<span style="color:#60809f;">THEORY</span>]]'''</font> 17:41, 13 November 2010 (UTC) | |||
:::::I'm not really a programmer per say but I can usually understand the gist of it, haha. I think we have 2 tech guys who who work on the server side, and besides from the Editor in Chief himself, I don't think anyone else has access to the servers. I actually did find a little tool to convert the .gifs to apng but it only does one file at a time, sadly. Great to have a programmer on board on this wiki though, can't wait to see what you come up with next. <span style="color:red">—<small>♥</small></span> <b>[[User:Jello|<span style="color:orange;">Jello</span>]][[User Talk:Jello|<span style="color:#3FA9D0;"><sup>talk</sup></span>]]</b> 18:18, 13 November 2010 (UTC) |
