WP:RFAP

Oh, a bit AGF on your GF revert but can you explain futher why is not useful? KGirlTrucker81 huh? what I'm been doing 01:56, 4 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@KGirlTrucker81: there are a few reasons: A) it's redundant to what is already implied in the warning. B) it's confusing. What is the "Even if" supposed to be modifying? The sentence before it that states, essentially, that asking when you're clearly not ready is just a waste of time? And C), it really breaks the flow of the warning. I won't be able to respond to your reply, because this is the last post I'm going to make tonight. G S Palmer (talk • contribs) 03:20, 4 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]


RFA

@BlackAmerican: I appreciate the offer, I really do. However, I don't feel that I'm ready for adminship at this point, and real life matters limit the amount I can edit Wikipedia, so I wouldn't have time to devote to an RFA. So I'm afraid I must decline. Thanks for your understanding, G S Palmer (talk • contribs) 22:14, 13 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

How much time does an RFA require? Also, I have seen many semi active admins. All the best! BlackAmerican (talk) 22:19, 13 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@BlackAmerican: from what I've seen, it requires the candidate to be there, ready to answer questions, for the entire week. G S Palmer (talk • contribs) 03:46, 14 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Tappei Nagatsuki

I'm happy that you created an article about the author of Re:Zero, but do you think that Wikipedia is really ready for an article about him? Personally, I don't feel that he meets WP:AUTHOR yet - he comes closest to meeting point #3, but I don't think he quite meets it. Perhaps it would be best to redirect it to Re:Zero for now, like I did with Okayado and Monster Musume? G S Palmer (talk • contribs) 13:02, 25 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, I had doubts about it, but I risked. If you will redirect it to the article, I shalln't see a problem.--White DemΩn (el psy congroo) 13:14, 25 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
@White Demon: okay,  Done. Sorry about that. Hopefully we'll need an article on him sometime in the future. G S Palmer (talk • contribs) 17:11, 25 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

ORCP

Hi GS, I’ve just been having another look at your entry at WP:ORCP. It may well be time for you to take a serious decision now. Let me know what you think. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 05:48, 17 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Kudpung: if you're suggesting that I run for adminship, I'm busy IRL at the moment, but might have time around the middle of December (I can't guarantee any time before that). However, I wouldn't feel comfortable self-nominating, so if I were to run, I would need someone who would be willing to get the process going.

New deal for page patrollers

Hi G S Palmer,

In order to better control the quality of new pages, keep out the spam, and welcome the genuine newbies, the current system we introduced in 2011 is being updated and improved. The documentation and tutorials have also been revised and given a facelift. Most importantly a new user group New Page Reviewer has been created.

Under the new rule, you may find that you are temporarily unable to mark new pages as reviewed. However, this is nothing to worry about - most current experienced patrollers are being accorded the the new right without the need to apply, and if you have significant previous experience of patrolling new pages, we strongly encourage you to apply for the new right as soon as possible - we need all the help we can get, and we are now providing a dynamic, supportive environment for your work.

Find out more about this exiting new user right now at New Page Reviewers and be sure to read the new tutorial before applying. MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 04:29, 13 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi GS, In this edit at List of Twin Star Exorcists episodes, I pulled out a ton of content because they were dumped without proper attribution by a sockpuppet of Sage of the Six Paths who was indeffed months ago for copyright violations. He apparently still doesn't know how to copy within Wikipedia while giving proper attribution since it looks like he may have yanked them out of the main Twin Star Exorcists article. Anyhow, I notice that some of the episode summaries may have been contributed by you. Can you verify which of the summaries you wrote from scratch? If you did, then they could be restored to the article with proper attribution to Twin Star Exorcists (per WP:CWW). Otherwise, they'll have to be omitted. Many of the summaries were identical to summaries found at Wikia, but in the case of this episode summary it looks like you submitted it several days before it appeared at Wikia. Any help you can provide here would be greatly appreciated. Thanks and sorry for the hassle. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 06:00, 31 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Cyphoidbomb: I wrote the episode summaries for episodes 1-8 (see this revision) from scratch. I'll add them to the list right away (with proper attribution, of course). G S Palmer (talk • contribs) 20:33, 31 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

On 1 March 2017, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Call of Cthulhu: The Official Video Game, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that concerns over whether video game Call of Cthulhu had been cancelled proved unfounded, when it was revived by a different developer more than two years after its original announcement?

About info table on Re:Zero's manga adaptation of the 2nd arc

The serialization has stopped. The adaptation ends at chapter 20 (aside from the extra chapter). You can check the Re:Zero wiki, the official twitter or Mangaka the twitter. You can also read the last chapter on batoto.

http://rezero.wikia.com/wiki/Dainishou_Manga_Volume_4

Hope that helps.

Iron maw (talk) 08:53, 24 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

If you have a Tweet from the official Twitter account confirming serialization has ended, then you can use that as a source. Otherwise, the statement is OR. G S Palmer (talk • contribs) 12:49, 24 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Hey, I did some searching and I found that the manga artist mentioned on Twitter that the manga ended in the issue sold at the end of December, and the following month they mention it again when they talk about the mayonnaise chapter that was published in January (which Crunchyroll also did an article on). So it would appear that the mayonnaise chapter was the last serialized chapter on January 25.--十八 20:08, 24 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Stop icon

Your recent editing history at Junji Ito Collection shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly. —Farix (t | c) 03:21, 24 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

File:Ueno-san wa Bukiyō, volume 1.jpg

Hi, I'm RonBot, a script that checks new non-free file uploads. I have found that the subject image that you recently uploaded was more than 5% in excess of the Non-free content guideline size of 100,000 pixels. I have tagged the image for a standard reduction, which (for jpg/gif/png/svg files) normally happens within a day. Please check the reduced image, and make sure that the image is not excessively corrupted. Other files will be added to Category:Wikipedia non-free file size reduction requests for manual processing. There is a full seven-day period before the original oversized image will be hidden; during that time you might want to consider editing the original image yourself (perhaps an initial crop to allow a smaller reduction or none at all). A formula for calculation the desired size can be found at WP:Image resolution, along with instructions on how to tag the image in the rare cases that it requires an oversized image (typically about 0.2% of non-free uploads are tagged as necessarily oversized). Please contact the bot owner if you have any questions, or you can ask them at Wikipedia talk:Non-free content. RonBot (talk) 18:30, 24 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Deletion discussion about Zombieland Saga

Hello, G S Palmer,

I wanted to let you know that there's a discussion about whether Zombieland Saga should be deleted. Your comments are welcome at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Zombieland Saga .

If you're new to the process, articles for deletion is a group discussion (not a vote!) that usually lasts seven days. If you need it, there is a guide on how to contribute. Last but not least, you are highly encouraged to continue improving the article; just be sure not to remove the tag about the deletion nomination from the top.

Thanks,

Etzedek24 (Would it kill ya to leave an edit summary?) 03:17, 6 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Dream Focus: please don't be patronizing to me. It's not as if the AFD is trending strongly towards delete. G S Palmer (talk • contribs) 16:25, 8 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
You are right, it could end up with no consensus default to keep. Or the closing administrator could say it doesn't pass the general notability guidelines, and just eliminate it from mainspace. Either way, the manga anime wikia I created to save articles from deletion on Wikipedia will still welcome your article if you want to stick a copy of it over there. Dream Focus 16:47, 8 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry I responded the way I did. It felt like you were just trying to shuffle me off to some fan wiki, and I didn't appreciate that. But if that's not what you intended, or even if it was, I shouldn't have gotten irritated at you. G S Palmer (talk • contribs) 16:50, 8 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Kobayashi Genre.

You undid my edit on Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid, wherein I added the genre of “Yuri” to the list, on the grounds that my citation makes no mention of this.

The article I cited speaks of the main characters as a lesbian couple, surely this would suffice as a point of reference for labelling it as “Yuri”, which is the anime/manga genre of lesbian love stories.

Regards, IronBridge (talk) 13:05, 9 July 2018 (UTC)IronBridge[reply]

@IronBridge: No, that would be WP:SYNTH. You need a source that explicitly refers to the series as "yuri". If anyone could use a source that says a: "well, this series contains this", and then use it as a basis to claim b: "well, this genre usually includes this, thus this series is this genre", then there would be no point in using sources at all, because the primary work can be used as a source for a, and thus you could assert that a series was a certain genre based merely on your opinions as to what defined that genre. And we can't have that, because Wikipedia only reports what has already been said by others, not the opinions of our editors. G S Palmer (talk • contribs) 15:54, 9 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Having "start" instead of "starting" also changes the meaning: "start life in another world" is a command, whereas "starting life in another world" is descriptive. G S Palmer (talk • contribs) 12:17, 1 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

All right! And thanks for putting "starting" in the article "Re:Zero − Starting Life in Another World"! I thought to do it but you did it for me. 11 Tom (talk) 18:09, 2 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
