Unproductive Edits
Again, edits are unproductive and frivolous because they don't make a functional or visual change to the page. They only serve to inflate edit counts and clog edit histories. Stop performing them. Dragonus Nesha (talk) 19:38, 4 June 2022 (UTC)

I know minor edits can be filtered from the RecentChanges page, so your response doesn't address anything that I said. Dragonus Nesha (talk) 23:50, 4 June 2022 (UTC)

Yet another reminder that edits like are pointless and unproductive. Dragonus Nesha (talk) 20:30, 6 July 2022 (UTC)

Dragonus Nesha (talk) 23:19, 6 July 2022 (UTC)
 * 1) You didn't mark that edit as minor anyways.
 * 2) I never said minor edits are unproductive. Minor edits certainly can be productive; I frequently use them to fix broken coding, misspellings, or grammar mistakes. They can be unproductive, whether marked as minor or not, when they that don't make a functional or visual change to the page. The removal of those spaces, like your capitalization of template names and the code, doesn't alter the function of the source code nor is it visually represented in how the article displays.
 * 3) If the spaces bother you that much, then wait to include their removal in a more comprehensive, productive edit. If there's nothing else to change about the page, then there's no reason for you to be looking at the source code to see them.

Sources for Cover Images
I've been using the WhatLinksHere special page to find images that need updating as it can collect them by chapter. However, these files won't show up in the list if they don't include the direct link to the chapter. And linking to the image file doesn't leave a trail to what images have been cropped from the cover.

Your argument that "the only part of the chapter this image comes from is the cover" doesn't really come into play since the covers are still parts of chapters and featured in the chapter articles. Dragonus Nesha (talk) 00:52, 7 July 2022 (UTC)

Except linking to the image file doesn't make it easier to find. It won't show up when searching images by chapter (basic search function would mix in images from Episode 744) and isn't included under the cover's "File usage" section, so there's nothing to indicate that a separate image file was cropped from the chapter cover. If you want to make clear that it's only from the cover, then simply add " cover" after the chapter listing.

The MangaPlus app has the English versions of series for free. ShonenJumpPlus has select chapters for free. Dragonus Nesha (talk) 18:14, 7 July 2022 (UTC)

Yes, it shows up if you search for links to the file, but searching each file individually is far more time consuming than simply searching for the chapter. Dragonus Nesha (talk) 12:10, 8 July 2022 (UTC)

Re:Shonen Jump Reference and Re:Rename
I assume you wanted me to add a way to display the year with the Shonen Jump reference. It now works like this: Weekly Shonen Jump 1997 Issue 34

However, I changed the name of the parameter to "jump" or "wsj". Category:Weapon Images is now renamed as well. 21:23, 18 July 2022 (UTC)

Re:Wiki Wordmark
I don't know where it's from; since it's a fanmade image with Creative Commons licensing, it's not particularly important. Kaido King of the Beasts (talk) 14:24, 20 July 2022 (UTC)

Re:Naviboxes
You can edit the navibox yourself the next time you see something missing. 21:24, 20 August 2022 (UTC)

Re:Changes
Hey Robert, I'm all for spinoff content getting pages as long as it is completely original, like Mao, Trip, and Tony-Tony Island. That's why I raised the question about Monday (Non-Canon) vs Miss Monday, which seems like a pretty close 1:1 and therefore might not warrant a page. To do expand into other versions of canon characters, like Bossy Luffy himself, we'd need a forum, and I'd argue that would become too unruly. Not sure about chapters just because we usually don't have enough info when they aren't official translated. Short exerpts Walrsu is writing are great but don't warrant individual pages. 02:48, 22 August 2022 (UTC)

Re:Characters
I think that would just clutter the volume pages. It's not very meaningful content. 19:35, 22 August 2022 (UTC)

Re:Non-Cover Story References
Use the chapter reference and page=1 or page=1-2. 09:20, 30 August 2022 (UTC)

Non-Canon Antagonists
Hey, if you remove the Non-Canon Antagonists category from a page (ex. Marine X and Komei), please replace it with one of the substitute categories you made, like Game Antagonists or Episode Special Antagonists. 15:28, 14 November 2022 (UTC)

Re:Source
I would rather not share pirating links, but you can find a link to it French subbed from the first Reddit page when you Google "Emergency Planning, a Perfect Strategy for the One Piece", which is where I watched it. Walrsu (talk) 17:07, 19 November 2022 (UTC)

Re:Protection
What change? 18:43, 1 January 2023 (UTC)

Re:New Pages
What pages? 20:41, 1 January 2023 (UTC)

10:59, 3 January 2023 (UTC)
 * 1) That's fine if you're willing to put the effort into making making them.
 * 2) Births and deaths belong on the timeline.

It's useful to see where character births fall in relation to events. Separating them would just complicate things. 12:48, 3 January 2023 (UTC)

Yes, the timeline page could be reformatted at some point. Certain lists may be acceptable, but some pages like that have been deleted in the past. 14:11, 3 January 2023 (UTC)

No, I don't think any of them are a good fit for categories. 18:51, 3 January 2023 (UTC)

Précieuses
Could you explain why you keep changing Précieuses to use the Gallery template and changing Template:Précieuses Gallery to link to the Précieuses page instead of the individual members? It makes no sense to have it set up differently from every other pirate group. Walrsu (talk) 07:36, 18 January 2023 (UTC)

To be fair I forgot about the navibox, I've adjusted it accordingly. What are you referring to by "pages affected", just the three fish-women or other pages as well? Walrsu (talk) 14:44, 18 January 2023 (UTC)

Redirects
Why do you dislike using redirects so much? The advantage of redirects that point to specific headers is that if the header changes in the future (new translation, etc), you don't need to modify every page that links to it. Once you change the redirect page, it (functionally) cascades to every page linking there through the redirect. For example, the header for the Juracho was changed from "Jura Chou" to "Juracho" 3 days ago; if any pages linked directly to Animal Species/Strong World instead of Jura Chou then their links no longer function correctly, and bring the user to the top of the Strong World page. Meanwhile, 1 edit on the Jura Chou page instantly fixes the links on any pages that used the redirect.

Obviously this only applies to redirects that point to specific headers on pages, not that point to pages as a whole; if it's just redirecting to the top of the page, it usually just means the wrong name is being used, and I agree that in those cases the redirects should be replaced.

Re:Interlanguage Links
It doesn't matter what order they are in the source text, they're automatically displayed in alphabetical order at the bottom of the article and the drop-down menu. 17:20, 19 January 2023 (UTC)

Categories are usually last in the source text, but the articles automatically display categories above the languages. 20:19, 3 February 2023 (UTC)

Re: Arabasta Odyssey Locations
I'm not sure tbh. I'm playing the game right now. 13:55, 22 January 2023 (UTC)

Kingdom Categories
Please, don't remove those categories. I left/added them so the locations would be better represented on the wiki. Dragonus Nesha (talk) 16:00, 25 January 2023 (UTC)

If you want to discuss the topic, you should do so on a Talk Page rather than frivolously edit pages. Dragonus Nesha (talk) 16:23, 25 January 2023 (UTC)

Memoria Locations
I haven't played the game or looked into the story, so I have no knowledge of it. 20:19, 3 February 2023 (UTC)

Subspecies
Those with enough information yes, but I'm not sure if all of the ones you mentioned have enough. 20:19, 3 February 2023 (UTC)

Source Notes
"Anime Notes" are also used with TV specials and such, some of the movies have "Continuity Notes" but I think the newer movies are missing those. Databooks mainly reveal statistical information so I don't think listing all of that in a "Notes" section would be a good idea. The Vivre Card main page already states what kind of information the cards contain, and the list of cards shows which characters have been covered. 20:19, 3 February 2023 (UTC)

Red Hair Pirates Officers
As the SBS points out, Dai Kanbu (大幹部) is the same term used for the Straw Hats' ranking within the Grand Fleet. That's why "Red Hair Pirates Officers" is more descriptive and specific. Dragonus Nesha (talk) 12:59, 11 February 2023 (UTC)

When did I deny that? "Red Hair Pirates Officers" still has the word "officers" in it. "Big Officers" is non-specific since two separate groups use that term, and the Red Hair Pirates don't have another layer of officers that require distinction. Dragonus Nesha (talk) 15:20, 11 February 2023 (UTC)

No, that article and Talk Page have nothing to do with this category and its name. Dragonus Nesha (talk) 23:09, 11 February 2023 (UTC)

If you continue to ignore Talk Page discussions and category rules, I will open a ban forum for you. Dragonus Nesha (talk) 20:26, 2 April 2023 (UTC)

Re:Shown Devil Fruits
Regardless of page count, It's not good categorization to mix the proper classification of Devil Fruits with unrelated information regarding their depiction in media. 15:42, 23 April 2023 (UTC)

Episode Parameters
Please, refrain from removing the episode parameters from Qref templates. They make it easier to find which ones still need to be filled out. Dragonus Nesha (talk) 16:08, 13 June 2023 (UTC)

Re:Non-Canon Royalty
Let's speed up this process and you describe what issue you're having with the category. Dragonus Nesha (talk) 13:29, 25 June 2023 (UTC)

Re:Non-Episode Releases
There are already specials listed on that page, check those. 16:31, 4 July 2023 (UTC)

NPMS Alliance Categories
As you are well aware, the Category Guidelines advise against large recategorizations without prior discussion. The fact that there is so much overlap between the two suggests that there is a flaw with the original category. Dragonus Nesha (talk) 19:18, 17 July 2023 (UTC)

That's exactly my point about the original category being flawed; that should be corrected rather than creating a duplicate category. Dragonus Nesha (talk) 19:45, 17 July 2023 (UTC)

I can't seem to find where you talked over this category project with Kaido. Can you link to the messages? Dragonus Nesha (talk) 20:52, 17 July 2023 (UTC)

Neither of those links have a discussion between you and Kaido. Dragonus Nesha (talk) 21:24, 17 July 2023 (UTC)

Re:Episode 491 End Card
I haven't checked but nothing was done with it nearly a full day after it was uploaded. Unused images are deleted, per Image Guidelines. If you have a use for it, feel free to reupload it. Walrsu (talk) 03:36, 21 August 2023 (UTC)

Wikipedia Template
At this time, W creates a visual error when used in text. Please, don't add into anymore articles until the issue is resolved. Dragonus Nesha (talk) 14:22, 29 September 2023 (UTC)

Re:Manga Image Update
Most images don't need to be replaced just because they come from a magazine. Unless the volume version has been changed, there's no difference - and those are already tracked in the Volume Changes section of a volume page, so it's not particularly difficult to ensure images are updated if they need to be.

A similar idea was considered here, where it was decided not to implement a category that would track something similar (manga/anime versions, in the forum's case). Walrsu (talk) 17:51, 19 October 2023 (UTC)

Re:Boxes
As in, the text? It's just dialogue from the narrator, instead of from a specific character. Walrsu (talk) 01:04, 20 October 2023 (UTC)

Ah I see. I guess I would consider it equivalent to a text bubble, that just doesn't point to the speaker; similar to the bubbles used for loudspeakers (see c.1095 p.2 for an example). If I'm not mistaken "captions" are text by definition.

The "boxes" could probably be compared to the info-boxes used to introduce characters as well, like the one used for Luffy in chapter 1 (p. 5). Walrsu (talk) 01:55, 20 October 2023 (UTC)

Update Chapter Images
Which chapter images are you referring to? I can get anything in volume 25, as well as 103-106(107 soon enough). ethan2awesome (talk) 17:21, 20 October 2023 (UTC)

I'll probably get around to volume 25 at some point, and possibly the others as well. I could explain what I actually do if you contact me on discord. The reason I haven't updated most of the modern ones is because the anime will eventually adapt them and most look OK at worst currently. ethan2awesome (talk) 17:30, 20 October 2023 (UTC)

Uta's Past Arc
While the Uta's Past Arc is mainly about Uta and Luffy's past together, Shanks and his crew are apart of the flashbacks and should be included. In Addition, The beginning and ending of the arc itself involves all of the straw hats, including Jinbe listening to Uta's song and deciding to go to elegia, so their involvement in the arc may be small but should not be overlooked since it leads into film red. That is my reasoning for the sections, it is not about them being in the present during the events of the arc, it's more about the straw hats being part of the set up for the flashback itself. Which if you watch the the beginning and end of the arc, they very clearly do, along with Uta herself having the flashback. So that my reasoning, that's why I did what I did. Plain and simple.
