Re:Images

It's not my job to format your userpage. It's yours to follow policy, and in this case, mine to enforce it. I harbor you no ill will, I'm simply applying policy by removing the images. Whether you wish to maintain them as a list or another method is completely unknown to me, and in any case, how could I know what format you wanted them in? Unreasonable demands cannot be met.

Big O episodes

I created Template:The Big O episodes. It adds any article where it's transcluded into Category:The Big O episodes.--Nohansen 23:37, 14 November 2007 (UTC)

A category for the episodes would be better. Then, that category can be placed in Category:Television episodes by series.--Nohansen 23:44, 14 November 2007 (UTC)

Category:Screenshots of The Big O

I saw that. There's a procedure for moving all articles in one category. It must be requested and then a bot takes care of the rest. But I don't know how to make the request.--Nohansen 23:58, 14 November 2007 (UTC)

Improper speedy tagging

Hi, I just noticed that you tagged Template:Babellist and Template:BabelUser for speedy deletion improperly. They were both tagged with {{deprecated}} less than a day ago, a process which has a 14-day waiting period. I'd notified the template's original author and he was supposed to have that period of time available to him in order to respond. Please don't add speedy templates to templates marked deprecated in the future, if they really do warrant deletion they'll go away in the fullness of time and they cause no harm in the interim.

I will ask a checkuser for IP verification. Mr.Z-man 03:04, 26 November 2007 (UTC)

Note they have a very similar editing style. Cheers,JetLover (Report a mistake) 03:17, 26 November 2007 (UTC)

I've been watching this user for some time. (I didn't want to block someone just due to "similar" editing habits.) However, there have been some edits which have clinched it for me.

Incidentally, the user need not be unblocked to discuss on this talk page. I'd rather wait, than to risk continued SOCKs. (See also User:Sox207.) - jc37 06:37, 26 November 2007 (UTC)

I asked Deskana (who did the last check on PatPeter) on IRC. The check came back "likely" that they are the same person (same ISP, same area). Mr.Z-man 17:41, 26 November 2007 (UTC)

"However, there have been some edits which have clinched it for me." I would like to know what these are, because after going over some of my edits I have come across a couple similarities. First of all when I started editing userboxes it was off-topic for me, I just came to edit The Big O articles and upload images etc. etc. I put user en-3 on my userpage because I thought that was what level I was on, but after reading more at babel I see that I am probably just user en (the whole chain confuses be how en is inbetween en-4 and en-5) but then I got in a discussion with Tasco about color schemes and how the userboxes seem to follow the visible spectrum blue indigo green yellow red, except three is blue instead of green, which doesn't make much sense, and also the userbox was created in '05 by an inactive user. After this i began to look at other level three templates, some of which I found to be green, and some of which looked absolutely horrible. A lot of the templates didn't have Template:Languages so I started adding that, then I came across Category:User templates en and i noticed two types of categorization. You Jc37 put "Userpage userboxes" in usersubpage categories to sort them with the rest of their kind and keep them away from templates. PatPeter on the other hand does "Userpage user templates" both of which are pretty long, so I just cut off both second and third words for just "userpage," I did this following your lead jc37. After that I started standardizing other templates, like the en-sco I got a barnstar for. I noticed that all the en-sco were at the top of the User templates en list and obviously didn't think the belonged there, they belong with the rest of the templates, so I took the space out.

So yeah it's funny how our minds work, how I jumped from one topic to another. Sorry for any bad grammar and spelling, as I said I don't know where I would be on the Babel list, but I came here to edit The Big O and any other anime I come across that I can help, just want to help the project. -The Big X 20:24, 26 November 2007 (UTC)
