Marines vs Navy
You should only ever use Marines here. That's the correct name for the group and is what Oda himself uses. SeaTerror (talk) 21:14, August 31, 2014 (UTC)

Edit quality
While it is good that you're trying, you need to get better at it. I suggest you look at http://onepiece.wikia.com/wiki/One_Piece_Encyclopedia:Guidebook/Manual_of_Style

re:Pica~
It's because he wasn't the last person in the group to be introduced. There was Kyuin after him and there could still easily be more named members (even if they are just peons) to come later. 16:20, September 8, 2014 (UTC)

Spoiler rules
Please don't talk about spoilers from the new chapter anywhere. We wait for the chapter to be out in English before we allow any content to be added to pages. Thanks 18:18, December 10, 2014 (UTC)

Active Discussion template
Hi Grievous, when discussions reach a solution/majority decision, please leave the template in the discussion until the work to the pages has been completed. Otherwise, people will forget about the changes that must be made. Thanks. 21:22, August 15, 2015 (UTC)

There's something wrong
I reverted your edit because there's something wrong within the template itself (It displayed the statuses first before the template itself). For now, it will be using the previous format while waiting for somebody who has knowledge to apply the code properly.

DUDE
DUDE

DON'T

AND ESPECIALLY DON'T INCLUDE THEM IN YOUR EDIT SUMMARY!

Alright, I forgot to tell you this yesterday, but if you see something in a raw scan of the new chapter before the chapter is released in English, you're not supposed to put ANY info regarding that chapter ANYWHERE on the wiki. That's also why Farul's status was changed back to unknown. I thought we made it clear on chat but apparently it flew right over your head. OH well, don't do it again. 11:47, August 20, 2015 (UTC)

Ah okay sorry, I thought the raw counted already as not spoilers but I understand. Also that gif XD

Grievous67 (talk) 08:50, August 21, 2015 (UTC)

The images I saw that you uploaded from 797 did not contain any information. There was no source, licensing, or categories. You never edited the image's page. While not deletion worthy, your filenames also did not have proper capitalization. You also didn't add Category:Episode Images for the anime Aremo Ganmi images you uploaded, though I added that myself and did not delete the files.

Thanks for caring enough to learn the proper way to do things, that's always appreciated in new users. 13:14, August 21, 2015 (UTC)

Discussion Clarifications
When there is an edit war, the policy is to leave the page the way it was before the change was made. In the case of the Scarlett issue, that would be leaving Scarlett in the normal section. If you want to make a change, the burden of proof is on you to prove your change is correct via discussion before the page is altered. Also, our discussions work on a timescale of weeks, not hours/single days, so please stop saying "if nobody responds, I will make the change". A minimum of approximately 4-5 users is generally needed to solve a discussion in most cases, but it varies frequently. It's difficult for people to even know the discussion exists if it's very short, and you don't add Active Discussion to it as well. Please keep this in mind as you continue to edit, because you are often "jumping the gun" on most issues here. Thanks. 13:28, August 21, 2015 (UTC)

Re: Yukai Sareta
I didn't look at your links but I assume it means 誘拐された (Yuukai Sareta- She's been kidnapped) 19:12, August 21, 2015 (UTC)

Re:Beta Beta no Mi
It's unlocked for now. 12:30, August 23, 2015 (UTC)

Re:Tondeki
Lol, I just realized what your avi looks like up close.

Anyway, "Tondeki" isn't a word, but from the context I assume it's a cut-off version of "Tondeku" (飛んでく), which means "It's flying away". 13:46, August 27, 2015 (UTC)

Goshikito
You don't just slip an image file in-between the link. [link] [image]. You, however, did [li][image][nk] this. 18:48, August 30, 2015 (UTC)

I did not. I placed the image correctly. The guy who did the image in between it was the guy who changed it to the One Py Berry Match image. My image was correct.

Grievous67 (talk) 20:22, August 30, 2015 (UTC)

No, the record show it was you. And besides, you didn't add proper categories into the said image. 22:45, August 30, 2015 (UTC)

Speculation 101
Insert statement X. Is X literally stated or visually implied in the manga?

Yes --> Alright, put it on the page

No --> Is it possible to deduce this fact with the use of multiple evidences?

Yes --> Unclear situation. Do not put information on the page without discussion.

No ---> Speculation. Ksshhht. BEGONE. BEGONE.

Is it stated in the anime but not in the manga?

Yes --> Screw the anime.

No ---> Screw the anime anyways :P

Here you go. Hope this helps with future situations :P. 22:19, August 30, 2015 (UTC)

Spoilers
No spoilers on the wiki means chat as well. Keep that in mind next time, people have been banned for spoiling in the chat before. 18:06, September 2, 2015 (UTC)

Yeah I kept that in mind so I only discussed them with Nova who was fine with it

Grievous67 (talk) 19:20, September 2, 2015 (UTC)

You know, there is something they call a PM, a private message. Use it to talk about spoilers with someone who is fine with it. But the rules are rules, do not ever talk about spoilers again in the main chat. 19:24, September 2, 2015 (UTC)

Oh yeah forgive me. I wanted to make another user for another matter on another wiki (since I want to mantain this user centered only in the One Piece wikia) but I accidentally answered here. Sorry XD

But yeah anyways, I'll keep it in mind and won't do it again. Thanks.

Chat
Chat's just broken again, is all. Every so often staff try to improve it and end up breaking it for a few weeks.

17:32, September 7, 2015 (UTC)

Alrighty then, see you all in a few weeks ( .___.)/ Roranoa Drake II (talk) 17:45, September 7, 2015 (UTC)

Ah ok, thanks for answering!

Final Image Guidelines Warning
Hi there! I know you're trying to help the wiki, but you need to read the other messages on your talk and read the Image Guidelines, or else you could face a ban for uploading images incorrectly. Feel free to ask me or other users questions, though the Guidelines Reminder that's been posted already on your talk page points out what you've been doing wrong on your uploads. Don't forget it links you to the FAQ which can tell you all the steps you need to upload images correctly! Thanks. 13:02, September 24, 2015 (UTC)

Just going to leave this here
This article may prove of interest to you. I'm aware that you're under threat from a few other areas of editing conduct, but let's not forget this one too.

21:57, September 24, 2015 (UTC)

re:Throne Wars
I'd need a raw to check :) 02:11, September 25, 2015 (UTC)

SBS
Hey Grievous, just a pointer that we get our SBS translations, when possible, from User:JapaneseOPfan, to ensure we get an accurate translation and also to avoid accusations of plagiarism. User:Klobis provides us with raw images that aren't simply pictures of the book. Don't worry, the page will be filled soon 23:17, October 4, 2015 (UTC)

Your Ban
Grievous, please read the Image Guidelines carefully. You've been warned several times about them. Here's all the things wrong with the image you uploaded today:


 * 1) It was a .jpg file, which we never allow.
 * 2) It was not sourced.
 * 3) It had no licensing.
 * 4) It had no categories.
 * 5) You made no attempt to add any of those things.
 * 6) It was also improperly named for use on an SBS page, as those have a strict system for filenames.

There are several warnings on your talk page that include instructions on how to do these things properly, so I am not going to state them again, I just expect that you will read them now. If you break the guidelines again, you'll end up with a ban that's longer than this one. 02:36, October 5, 2015 (UTC)

So
Just a heads up - it's that the way you're trying to be the voice of the community that's pissing the community off. Try waiting for other people to post before spamming long walls of text nobody will ever bother to read.

Discussion
Hey Grievous. I came in a little late to the blow up today, but I just wanted to talk to you about what happened.

First off, I want to say I'm not here to blame you, ban you or anything, I'm just here to talk about what happened and why, and how we can avoid situations like this in the future.

You can start by reading these sections that talk about how to handle your conflicts with the wiki. I STRONGLY recommend reading those carefully, especially since they speak generally and without bias, and aren't about our specific argument.

Next, understand that the Weeble/Weevil issue is fairly low-stakes and unimportant. The odds of a Shichibukai getting a romanization in a future chapter or databook are quite high, and we will use whatever name that is. Until that time, going with either option doesn't really matter. What matters is that the content of his page is high quality, not the spelling of his name.

Then, there's matter of using IPs to artificially post on talk pages to make it seem like people support you. Don't do this, it could result in a ban if you do it again. If you're truly correct on an issue, then real editors will take your side. Just understand that it takes time for editors to see discussions, as this wiki is not totally active 24/7 with a million editors.

Regarding the "silencing of your opinion", sometimes endless discussions are really bad for our community. As an admin, I have to watch out for the community's general health. The Weeble/Weevil discussion was going nowhere, no new people were getting involved and only getting more heated with the people posting. It was time to end it, and to go with the option our translator and the more trusted manga translations used.

And your chat kicks were because we don't like to take heated wiki discussions into main chat. It spoils the fun that chat is supposed to be, and it generally only makes arguments heat up faster.

Regarding the comments other people have made about "the community not liking you", just be aware that your conduct speaks much louder than your opinions themselves. Opening a bunch of discussions at once about issues you refuse to yield on is going to get you noticed in a negative light. My advice is to pick your battles, pick the timing of them, and to pick when to let them go.

Anyways, I hope all that helps to cool our relationship in the future. 16:43, October 18, 2015 (UTC)
