About the rules
DP, after you finish your job with the background, we should start thinking about the rules of that game. 18:00, June 20, 2011 (UTC)

DP, can you please block the comments on the war blog, we need to make the participants pay attention on creating the rules and at least vote for them, after that blog is closed, I or you could make a blog/forum about the rules, we need to decide or else this game will go to waste and the idea is pretty good 19:13, June 22, 2011 (UTC)

New template
I created the template Edit war for images, I don't know if it's useful, but sometimes those stupid edit wars without even a discussion were annoying. This will not solve the problem, but placing a notice it's a start. If you don't like it delete it (or edit it).

Superhuman-strength - deletion
Usually I bother Yatanogarasu with this stuff, but I think you should have the honor to take the head of this monstrosity. Who would have thought that your proposal to remove fishmen and giants would lead to the articles deletion?

Anyway, on behalf of the community (Superhuman-strength: Deletion), please kill it and lets pray it never returns. 00:17, June 21, 2011 (UTC)

can i add links on pages or is that a bad idea Tuckyd  01:24, June 21, 2011 (UTC)

links
can i add links to pages or is that a waste of my time Tuckyd 01:26, June 21, 2011 (UTC)

SHS
There are only 4 pages that link to it(but I'm running my bot on all the 9000 pages)..but yeah who took care of the category?


 * Only 4 pages were there so I took care of it manually...I was surprised by your title on my talk though!

Superhuman-strength - complete annihilation
Hey DP,

I noticed that the article is deleted but the page itself still exists, is that intended?

If not, could you completely erase the page so the links leading to it appear red or "broken"? It would be easier to identify them on the articles, the link also leads to an empty page that encourages contributing content.../shiver. 10:21, June 22, 2011 (UTC)


 * This is because redirects to the article have not been deleted, and most pages linking to "Superhuman Strength" actually link to "Super-Human Strength". I just asked Roranoa to finish the job with his bot, no need to do it by hand.
 * I see, thanks. 11:37, June 22, 2011 (UTC)

Re:629 cover
What, you mean this? みかん If you mean that, it means "tangerine" lol. The sign that looks like an S is Nami's tattoo, although I think you can tell XD 19:27, June 22, 2011 (UTC)

Pictures on the slide show (Main Page)
Hi, I was wondering if you made the pictures on the slideshow on the main page. If you did could you tell me how you did it. I would like to create 4 for the Pandora Hearts Wikia. DSM144 19:58, June 22, 2011 (UTC)

Why was he banned? His last edits were "fine", he hasn't done any of his annoying stuff recently? 12:12, June 24, 2011 (UTC)

I'm not against you locking the pages up,but please give a sensible reason so that we can check out the Lock logs for reasons instead of flooding admin talk pages.Thanks:)

re: More Jabra stuff
Oh! Whoops, Jyabura goes in the romanized section, but Jabra should be in the English section. My bad.

CTVP?
Hey Dance. Well I was "flipping" through the wiki and thought of a new project we could start. Let's call it... the CTVP (Create the volume pages) Project. Anyway, do you have any volumes of ONE PIECE? (Language probably doesn't matter) Well if you do, notice how there is a Usopp Gallery Pirates section, and a section on the front cover of the book where Oda writes a random thought of the day that we haven't covered yet. With this, what I came up with is to create Volume pages (total 62 for now, obviously). The layout I thought of is roughly: For earlier volumes without SBS or Usopp gallery pirates, we can always take that part out or say "No SBS/ UGK". I'll ask Levi about providing all the images, and I'll probably be able to handle most of the work quickly. I may ask Roa of sff9 about handling the redirects too. It's a hassle, but nice (the outcome). What do you think? 03:07, June 28, 2011 (UTC)
 * Title (Volume 1, etc.)
 * Volume infobox with cover as image
 * Oda's random thought with image
 * Volume Summary (We could use the summaries already provided on the actual volume back covers)
 * All the Volume info provided in Chapters and Volumes  page.
 * (optional) Characters in order of appearance?
 * List of chapters (ex: Chapter 1: Romance Dawn - The Dawn of the Adventure  and so on. No summary)
 * (optional) Gallery of chapter covers
 * SBSs in between (Possibly merge SBS pages w/ volume pages. Of course redirects. If not, we can link like the chapters.)
 * Usopp Gallery pirates (Maybe gallery form, and "Usopp's comments" as the caption. Prize-winner image can be shown as a large image apart from gallery)
 * Color-in pages (Yes there are color-in pages in the volumes)
 * Little paper crafts/cut-outs that come with the earlier volumes (Yes these too)
 * (optional) Trivia
 * Site Navi

Well if the SBS moving is too much, we can link them can't we? Ah whatever. Wait, so I create the UGP galleries all on one page for all 62 volumes? Also, the "Oda's random comment w/ image" isn't talking about the UGP. Inside the outer cover. Ex: http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_qTIFUKnEDyo/SGGXnHoz8kI/AAAAAAAAAx0/fTL7G1AdY-s/s400/One%2BPiece%2BVolume%2B50.JPG

the very left of the cover; see the boxed image and some words below? That. Where should this be added? Should I create 1 new page with 62 gallery images? And if so, what should it be titled.. Oda's random thoughts? 19:16, June 28, 2011 (UTC)

If you want to check this other war with other rules....

re:Moving Forward
Actually all the samples I showed you are under 100 kb, so that's not a problem, because photoshop has an option "to save for the web", so I can use the images on the wiki. I looked around, and there isn't a "right size", basically I have to add a color gradient on the border and make the background the same color of the gradient (like the avatar wiki)... I think I'll try to add the map border of File:Map_of_East_Blue.jpg  as a frame, what one will actually see is up to his resolution and screen-type (widescreen/4:3) so some users with low resolution will not see the border (unless they will zoom out). Now, theese are the samples I made so far, they aren't ready to go yet (and they are not well-made), but if you tell me which "concept" do you like, I'll try to fix it. There is also a CSS script to add to make the background static. Of course if you have other ideas tell me.

I made a sample of the east blue map, you can see what it looks like on the italian wiki. It's static and if you zoom out you can see the whole picture, it depends on the user resolution what will you actual see "by default". I think it will look better on this wikia since here there is a more yellowish theme. I'm a little busy these days, but I'll try to make other backgrounds. Of course if you have suggestions tell me.


 * wow, and happy 9000th edit...

Another background I made. It has a glich, so if you don't see it (it's not the east blue map), look.

Please move Hyozo to Hyouzou, as seen in  Chapter 630 , but you have to delete  Hyouzou  first.


 * The talk page's history is lost. Guess it was on Talk:Hyouzou2  since Leviathan moved it here.

Mistake
On the Little Garden page you made a small inaccurate plot mistake which I knew of and fixed after double-checking my copy of Volume 14 of the manga. Thought you should know. - Adv193 19:34, June 29, 2011 (UTC)

Ah, that's why I couldn't move Hyozo to Hyouzou! I'm referring to what Leviathan said. I tried to do it before you, but I failed. Now I know why. :-) -- Meganoide 20:40, June 29, 2011 (UTC)

Volume 58
Hey man, quick question.

Could you edit the reference of volume 58 in the Chapters and Volumes  pages, since it sais that the next volume (58) comes out at Oct. 4th, although it is for sell at Sep. 13th. I can't edit it, are you capable? I'm talking about the Viz Manga version ofcourse.

Yountoryuu 08:56, June 30, 2011 (UTC)

Chapters
Hi DP, I noticed that in the first chapter, there are subtitles and information that is not needed and not used anymore, like Trivia, attacks and quotes, Panda already deleted that on the first chapter http://onepiece.wikia.com/wiki/Chapter_1, but on the second it still exists http://onepiece.wikia.com/wiki/Chapter_2#Quotes

But it is pretty useless, I even asked this on its talk page, its not like the latest chapters information, so should we delete them? 13:50, June 30, 2011 (UTC)

Images once more
Okay, so this is once again about the Oda avatar thing. (CTVP convo) Where should I place the "Oda's quote avatar" thing? If I make a new page for it, what should it be called? Oda's volume introductions? If you're lost, click the link on the CTVP section. Oda's intro is on the left side of the cover with the square image of Aokiji (?) and some words below. 00:41, July 2, 2011 (UTC)

Yeah I was thinking about something similar like that too. We could give it a shot. I just don't know how to fit more stuff into the charts :/ 00:58, July 2, 2011 (UTC)

Alright, I'll work that out somehow. By the way this is a different topic, have you seen this guy? All he did is upload Nami bath scenes... it isn't necessarily hentai but do we just leave him be? In any case, can you delete the images since they're sorta disturbing? Thanks XD 01:12, July 2, 2011 (UTC)

Well they have been sitting here for about an hour... I'll just ask him directly 01:22, July 2, 2011 (UTC)

Major Problem
Ricizubi and Stone Roger have started deleting information such as trivia from chapter pages when there was no vote to decide that. SeaTerror 00:38, July 3, 2011 (UTC)

There has to be a vote ESPECIALLY when a forum about it already existed. http://onepiece.wikia.com/wiki/Forum:Chapter_Page_Mess SeaTerror  00:46, July 3, 2011 (UTC)

It doesn't matter. They are deleting what was already there for the chapters when the forum already existed. There has to be a vote on every major change. Unless you like the fact that you can abuse your power. SeaTerror 00:54, July 3, 2011 (UTC)

There was no vote for it and there was no discussion for it. They ignored the discussion that was already ongoing. This is not a dictatorship where you can decide what you like is the best way to do it. SeaTerror 01:00, July 3, 2011 (UTC)

The really hilarious thing is you created that forum. "There are a lot pages with information just strewn about. Characters and attacks are just listed, instead of in character charts and attack sections, and they sort of blur the line separating them from plot points." I guess you have selective reading if you don't like something you said before. You also obviously didn't even read what I said. I said every major change needs to be discussed especially when deleting useful information. Editing something when a chapter comes out is not the same thing at all with what I am talking about. SeaTerror 01:16, July 3, 2011 (UTC)

Article :if it is unknown
I was having a glance through main articles like: Sabo .It is noted there that :"it is unknown, if sabo ever knew about Dragon being luffy's father".Why can't we delete those type of sentences, which are not even mentioned anywhere in series.They only show fan interest. Stone Roger 09:58, July 3, 2011 (UTC)

Oi!
Oi DP..I was one of the few people who proposed to remove the QUOTES from the start of my editing work here..but we are changing a  basic policy  and they need to be resolved in a forum right?

Yo!..also please know that I'm not even against it..I just want to change to OFFICIAL LAYOUT itself to be amended..so we NEED a forum for that..hope you understand buddy:)--


 * Come on!..I dont believe you cant understand ...removing the quotes section is against the layout ..and changing the layout(policy matter) needs a forum right?--

Never thought you would give sucha rep!..we are going against the basic layout..we first gotta change it then use THAT layout:)

Excuse me..but where's the current layout?...thanks:)

Update?..excatly what I'm talking ..we need a forum for that:)

Blue Walk?
Do you think Blue Walk should be left on the Rokushiki page. They are similar but it is not confirmed whether it is Rokushiki or not, so why should it even be on there? What do you think :]]]]-- Comasbasks 17:21, July 3, 2011 (UTC)

Archive- Doomed
You still there? Just noticed that Archived forums can't be edited. *Sigh* Any way to Un-archive it? Here. Thanks. 23:44, July 3, 2011 (UTC)

Colors Trap
I merged Colors Trap in Miss Goldenweek's page, when you have time delete it.. Thanks 00:19, July 4, 2011 (UTC)

Archive stuff
Never mind, I typed in the editing mode URL myself and just made a test edit which unlocked the Archive lock automatically XD 03:52, July 4, 2011 (UTC)

re:jozu
firsy off how can you ban me? i thought this was a free wiki where you can put down your own thoughts and second of all the only reason why he lost to the aokijo was because he got distracted like when marco got distracted and riddled with holes by kizura

oh plus when Jozu hit ice-man to save whitebeard, whitebeard was confident enough to leave it to him to fight him off

I don't know man where can i fight this because not everyone agrees to that, i mean the same can be said about marco he got pretty messed up by the admirals too. Is there anyway i can make that change permanent ?

Also how do i sign my posts?

Very true, but then again they were still caught off guard and if jozu or marco where paying attention they wouldn't of been caught by either of these attacks besides everyone knows you can't freeze a diamond to it's core if anything he could only freeze him on the outside. Plus if you take into consideration he defended mihawls slash a person who fought on par with one the of the four yonkou shanks, i believe it should be changed 03:37, July 4, 2011 (UTC) Highseas7

ok of course he becomes diamond look at luffy, daz bonez their both paramecia users there body becomes the substance. And jozu is the same otherwise when he switches back to normal the diamonds would just fall off not disappear. Perfect example Mr. 3 is also a paramecia user but does not turn into the substance only secretes it, afterwards leaving the substance or evidence of it behind. Plus no offense Marco was shoot by laser something you could recover from, Jozu was frozen solid something you cant undo unless with outside help. The piont being jozu was one of the 3 tp commanders of whitebeard he would of had to have the strength and clearly did to fight on par with the admirals Highseas7 03:59, July 4, 2011 (UTC)

WOW lol ok fine i'll give you the time thing which in my perspective doesn't really make a difference, but Jozu does not produce diamond he becomes diamond just like luffy or daz bonez. And again we've seen just how fast aokijo can freeze something he frze an entire part of an ocean in a matter of moments so again the only reason jozu lost was because he was caught of guard and not because he was inferior. And come on White Beard make mistakes? not likely

then how come Kizaru got off virtually scout free? he wasn't even dirty dude? theirs a big hole in your theory

true but man come on even vista and MARCO himself was looking a little beaten up and akianu himself. And it doesn't matter if he was a logia you get beat up you get beat up it shows on everyone even logia users

what? i know that man but still with your reasoning marco isn't at admrial level either, all im saying is jozu can fight on par with an admrial, whether or not he can win i don't know depends on the admrial i think

ok so what your saying is if marco was competely frozen he cold still walk off the battlefield? dude all im saying is certian people can't walk away from certian situation i.e being frozen solid

your leaving no wiggle room dude, one great example is when luffy beat eneru. if he wasn't made of rubber theirs no way he could of beat him, all im saying is jozu can fight on par with an admiral that is certian can he win that is unclear

is that like every post i make? or just these talks? Anyway dude the facts are he can fight on par with an admiral you just said it! " he could hold his own for a few minutes, can he win neither of us are sure so please, just change the info

ok now he didn't get trounced he got beat lets not get carried away here, and if thats true then why not change it now and see who else changes it? if so many people do believe he got beat then as you say someone will change it all i ask is that you leave it until someone besides you does, or at least say both shickibuchai and admrial

So then other people agree with me? So i believe it should be changed and i didn't notice anyone but you change it

idk man i still say we should change it can i make a poll or something ? Highseas7 05:59, July 4, 2011 (UTC)

cool so how exactly do i start a poll on the main page?

Merge
Ugh the topics keep getting pushed up! Anyway, I've asked Yatano but are you sure you don't want the SBS, UGP, and Intros to be merged into Volume pages? We can create redirects, and Levi and I think it's efficient... 21:31, July 4, 2011 (UTC)

The SBS page are not so long if you compare to a chapter page or any character page... I think the ideal solution will be converting the whole SBS section in a "Special Volume Contents" (or something like that), where for each volume there will be the volume intro, the sbs, and the UGP. Well for now I have to upload yet all the pictures, so we have time to decide on this.

New Samples
Hi! I made other background samples with the images you suggested... you can find them here:

http://www.mediafire.com/?xc17g2uglc3c3f5

http://www.mediafire.com/?ww9uor6tx3axyy6

http://www.mediafire.com/?bnqmif2h76ad6f7

You can also view them online. They are just tests, I probably still have to fix some things, so tell me your suggestions. But at the present, I prefer the most the background of East Blue, or the present background of the Italian Wiki (Skypiea + Water 7).

Member Since
http://community.wikia.com/wiki/Forum:Reseting_member_since_? maybe now is solved since it has stopped at 29th June. By the way thanks for the renaming job! I will upload the rest of image when I'll have some time...

Member since?
It's just a part of the staff's update..if it doesnt get fixed in a couple of weeks,..I'll be the first guy to contact the staff about this!:)

One more
Can you rename File:UGP Volume 11c.png  to File:UGP Volume 011c.png? Thanks!

Auto Refresh
I'd like to suggest you a little new feature: by adding this code to MediaWiki:Common.js, you will add an auto-refresh option for the Wiki Activity, LC, New files and other pages like those. If you want to see an example, see here, see the button at the top with the check box? By activating the check box the page will be automatically refresh. I think it can be useful.

Re: Fukaboshi
Okay, so I looked in the volume, and it said Fukaboshi is a フカザメ(Fukazame) Merman. Now "Fuka" is another way to say "Shark" (Same/zame) in japanese, so Fukazame would basically mean "SharkShark". As far as I know, no such shark exists, so basically Oda created a merman of a fish that does not exist. 04:57, July 8, 2011 (UTC)

Re: It's Up
Nice. Agree. And for the 'Unsure List' I say: Brogy, Dorry, Chimney, Gonbe, Motobaro, Conis and Pagaya should be out. The others from Water 7 kinda helped the crew to save Robin. They all helped. 11:21, July 8, 2011 (UTC)

re:Wikkii
I agree, we are two different wikis, so let's just erase all the links there. But we may need to ask others, as there may be people who disagree with our thinking. 06:02, July 9, 2011 (UTC)

Just a suggestion, but if no real complains, then let's get started. The problem is that I fear edit wars, as someone may simply put the link back up. 06:12, July 9, 2011 (UTC)

Okay, and yeah, I hope no one catches on and edit wars us. 06:20, July 9, 2011 (UTC)


 * Yo!..come over to the chat if you are online right now:)

Done!
I took care of all the links....--

So..
So.. What's goin' on with the 'allies' thing? Are we okay or not? 19:05, July 9, 2011 (UTC)

Chat modidity?
As you already know,SOME users constantly cuss on the chat..we've told 'em a lot of times not to do it or atleast move them to private chat rooms,even warnings have been given..maybe blocking (as we do for regular vandals) is necessary at least for a couple of days since THEY are taking warnings too lightly...we dont need to do it right away...maybe a few more chances..I'm waiting for your rep..thanks:)

can you help?
hey DP, could you help me and deal with this guy(http://onepiece.wikia.com/wiki/Special:Contributions/124.123.81.54) on my blog(battle of the admirals) he is trolling the place up and im trying to shut him and he just stays there in an ALL CAPS rage. its getting really anoyying and if you look i didnt start the argument. i just wanted to explain to him but he got all personal and started cursing so can you do something about this guy cause he is really pissing me off and i feel like admins should deal with guys like him. Imhungry4444 21:16, July 12, 2011 (UTC)

Bot Requests
Hi,


 * Here is a list of pages containing "Hordy" (I made it some time ago so it's possible that some "Hordy"s have been corrected):

I've got no time to write a program allowing to replace all "Hordy"s 'cause file names for example must not be modified, and I don't want to screw things up...


 * About the appearance section, I can make a list, but I will be absent for some time, so it'll have to wait!

Pandaman picture
hey Im not good at this whole editing thing x( but I found a pandaman while I was watching the near end of the impel down arc?

since you like editing (I'd assume) I have a picture that isnt in the Pandaman Cameo pictures.

do what you want with it, I have no attachment to it I just thought this one was funny :)

I found it on episode 452 when all the prisoners realize that jimbei is taking the stolen navy ship to NavyHQ



http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5405553/1/The_Boy_with_Haki
look over DP

from Stormbaron

Image vs text!
Yes I get what you are talking about (but cant see it on Boshi's page)..but when such a conflict occurs..I THINK the best way to handle it is by changing the image's dimensions..hope that helps:)

the boy with haki?
i don't think that was luffy thinking it, i think that was the author putting his input to the situation.

and i meant for you to see the whole thing, not all at once, but to atleast know of the stuff.

you can skim if you want to

i hust want your input to the idea to the everlasting effects this idea will wholed to the great story

Re: Salinity
Lol Enbun Noudo means Salinity in Japanese. Luffy is just making things up because he doesn't understand. Also I think Morgania is モルガニア and Peace Main is ピースメイン but I'm not sure since I'm not home and do not have access to raws until I return on 7/20. Please check with Klobis if you didn't already. 02:39, July 15, 2011 (UTC)

Suiren
I made it. -- Klobis 08:25, July 16, 2011 (UTC)

Redirects
Redirects are used when the name of the searched page is not correct. I can say I'm correcting wrong links (while a redirect is only a fake correction). In addiction to this, even if my work is unnecessary, I don't hurt anyone or damage anything. And correcting those links, I can go random throught this wikia and I can read many pages without using the boring "random page" function. In the end, correcting grammar mistakes is my principal way to help. Please don't ask me to stop. -- Meganoide 12:42, July 16, 2011 (UTC)

Well, but you said all the other thing about redirects which make my work useless, and that I don't need to work on them. Are you ok if I change every Luffy in Luffy (etc.)? -- Meganoide 15:57, July 16, 2011 (UTC)


 * Unofficial response:I think you can go on with the link fix..not on talkpages(article talks,user talks..etc)

re:Suiren
I'm not going to be back home until 7/20 remember? XD Or maybe I didn't tell you. I don't remember. What, should I post this on my talk page?? Anyway, either wait till then or ask Klobis/Levi. Sorry I can't help. 03:16, July 17, 2011 (UTC)

Hah! Nevermind I just saw Klobis' post. Forget it all 03:19, July 17, 2011 (UTC)

Right under my Re:Salinity post. He said "I made it" meaning he did the job for you right? 14:45, July 17, 2011 (UTC)

Lol I guess that's how frequently people update your tp! 02:59, July 18, 2011 (UTC)

DPL
Hi, can you request  the activation of the DPL Extension (Dynamic Page List)? It will not change anything, but we will be able to create Dynamic List. You can do a lot of useful things with them, for example you can make a list which will be automatically update itself if new items are added to a certain category, or in a similar way a table. For example see this page, that table will show every elements categorized as "grenade" and its attributions, without having to update the table each time a item is added. We can do a similar thing with the pirates, for example. Well, I need to get used to the code, but if you activate it, I can do some tests (also I think Sff9 and Rora can be helpful). Anyway as I said there will be not any changes in the wiki itself, so it's worth a try.

Did you miss by any chance this massage? If not, then you aren't gonna activate them? It's a "technical" extension, there will be not any change in the wiki, only the possibility to use the DPL tags will be add.

I thought so, Don't worry. Then I'll remind you this weekend if you don't do it yourself, it's nothing urgent anyway. Thanx.

DPL reminder: if it's ok, just contact  the staff saying that you want to active the DPL extension. Thanx.

The activation itself doesn't mean the immediate use of it, so the activation is still ok. An example of built-in use of DPL are the forum pages (they update themselves when there are new threads). When I activate it on the Italian wiki they did immediately, probably they warn us, because this is a big wiki. I'm gonna check something, just to be sure so I'll let you know. On the Italian wiki, as for now, I created a list which randomly picks 5 well-done articles every day, a template which show the ban and delete requests (useful for admins), and another one which keep track of the last discussion (separating the main talks from the others) which otherwise they will be lost in the activity feed. On another wiki they made a table like this one. Well then I'll let you know again, although I think there is no arm in activating it.

Ok, I talked to an user at the central wiki, and he said that it's ok, that mail was to warn us to don't overuse the dpl for things that they don't require it. So you can request its activation, and if you have any ideas about what we can do tell me. For now, I'll create those template I showed you.

Redirects
Can you explain me exactly what is getting annoying? Are you talking about seeing me correcting wrong links? Well, look somewhere else in that case. -- Meganoide 21:25, July 17, 2011 (UTC)

Yes, those pages haven't edited in over a year; this isn't important, however. Sometimes I see grammar errors in "normal pages" which haven't been edited for a year. Do you mean that I cannot correct them too? I know I flood the activity feed, however I control it every day. You (expert editors) are the one who improuve the wikia; unregistered contributors and me work on fixing details. For me every page has the same importance, being it a straw hat pirate page, a talk page, a template page. All I try to do is searching perfection :-) even in small particulars. Wrong redirects are small particulars, of course you agree. -- Meganoide 21:41, July 17, 2011 (UTC)

Hey, equilater triangles don't have hypoten... that thing!! Since the (example) page is called Monkey D. Luffy, a page that links to "Luffy" is wrong. Redirects are only a way to hide that mistake. -- Meganoide 21:53, July 17, 2011 (UTC)

Of course they are done to avoid to write someone's complete name. You can do this. Then I come and I do my job fixing them. I don't want to be thanked. I know the page doesn't look better after my work, simply I do it because I believe in it. Surely it doesn't look worse... -- Meganoide 22:06, July 17, 2011 (UTC)

Unneeded doesn't mean vandalic, or illegal, or everything else. -- Meganoide 22:17, July 17, 2011 (UTC)

Site news
Hi, I suggest you to add this template Last talks and a small new blogs list (to reduce the blog invitation) to the site news, just add this code:

 Blog posts at the end of this page. Ah, I also suggest to increase the forum display count from 4 to 5 (at least for site problems and wiki appearance), just edit " " in each sections.

Sure, at least consider to add the "last talk" template, since usually file talks and such are completely ignored.


 * Hey no offence..really cool template..but I dont think that is needed on the Community corner..there's always something called Recent changes which serves the same purpose in a better way:)

The problem is that since there are a lot of users in this wiki, the discussions are lost in the activity feed, if you think about it few hours is enough to miss an edit, and remember that the majority of the users are using the Wiki Activity, which don't even list the file talks and generally other name spaces other then the main one. Just take the file talks as example, they are basically completely ignored, which leads to edit wars without a proper discussion.

Guys, if you're going to discuss this, take it to each others' talk pages, please. Nothing personal, I just don't need constant new messages notifications popping up. 14:38, July 18, 2011 (UTC)

re:Community Messages
Yes, I think his ideas are good, we should add them. Are the other admins okay with it though (YazzyDream, Klobis, MasterDeva)? 00:40, July 19, 2011 (UTC)

I think it's a good idea too. Go for it. :)

10000
congrats on 10,000 edits Imhungry4444  05:29, July 19, 2011 (UTC)

DPL
Wow..I really like Levi's idea of using DPL on the wiki..but I just wanna know which all cases are we currently using it?

Report
Hi! I don't know if you'll find this template useful, but take a look: Report. If a file will be tagged for deletion or a new ban request will be added, you will instantly know. You can put it in your profile or talk page. Ah by the way... Happy 10,000th edit!

Links
Now you are getting annoying. I will continue to correct redirects and talk pages, but only of anon users. It is you that are not listening to me. Tell me just one good reason to stop. And please remember: useless correction are not bad correction. Understand??? -- Meganoide 18:09, July 19, 2011 (UTC)

It serves for no purpose? Damn, I told you this is not a good reason but probably you don't understand, you're too busy in breathing to listen to people. It alters the... that thing? Who cares, I control it every day. Now you have a second chance to say one good reson. Be careful not to waste it. -- Meganoide 18:16, July 19, 2011 (UTC)


 * just to add, if by chance you'll arrive to the point to decide a ban, then shouldn't a forum  be opened on this?

It is you who disturb me. I'm doing my job and you come and start to say do this/don't do that. -- Meganoide 18:23, July 19, 2011 (UTC)

Affiliation
About Daz Bones, in the "Affiliation" field do we have to put an organization? Why not a person? I ask you this because I saw a lot of cases where there was a person instead of an organization, for exampla Sabo.

About the long summaries
I ran my bot and scanned the pages as you told me...but wow I was surprised to find out that nearly half of them dont have them ....I guess there are just too many for me to link to you (A brief description of the situation though:Ch 1-100:All have them..Ch 101-500:Seriously NEARLY None of 'em(pick some out randomly) have the section empty!..500-current:All seem to be well)....hope that helps ...tell me if you need any more help..always happy to help:)--

Forum protection
For the forum creation protection, if you ask the staff what namespace and what level of protection you want ("Forum" and "Registered users" in our case) they will do it. So you can propose it if you want.


 * Ah, what about the chapter/episde list where a character appeaared in? I need to do some test, but it can be done, and relative easy.

Re:Blog Rules
I don't really know, since I no longer do blogs. But isn't blog a free expression of fan-based ideas and imaginations? Besides, how are we gonna put down rules that people would follow? I agree if it tones down the arguments and speculations, but the problem is how? 04:58, July 23, 2011 (UTC)

Hm, I kinda agree with Yatan. The blogs are the only totally fanbased area on the site, and I don't think it would be quite right to restrict what people want to write/discuss about on them. However, basic rules of etiquette would be a good idea. Basically people just need to be polite, but otherwise... yeah. Enforcing this is another matter. I don't really bother with blogs anymore, so I definitely won't see any trolling or whatever, and I have absolutely no desire to go read every single blog to make sure the masses are behaving themselves.

I suppose as long as you clearly define what "too heated" means, that should be fine.

I agree with the rule, but as Yazzy said, "too heated" needs a proper definition. 06:29, July 23, 2011 (UTC)

Oh! I also just came across a neat CSS code that highlights admin comments. Shall I install it?


 * And done and done. The code is located at MediaWiki:Wikia.css jsyk. I also picked blue as the highlight color since it's nice and simple, but it can also be changed (so you know for future reference.) It's working already if you check your blog comments.

You have no right to forbid certain types of blogs, simple as that. And I'm the first one to complain to the main wiki if you think you can simply ban topics that don't meet your personal "literary standard", or whatever. If some people go too far and insult others in a blog, it's a problem with the individual users. 12:43, July 24, 2011 (UTC)

An important Blog?
10:18, July 24, 2011 (UTC)

DP, I've made a blog which could be usefull if edited properly, I'm sure you will enjoy reading it, but could you please see if there are any grammar mistakes left or expressing mistakes(maybe like this one and if you can, add some links to those blogs mentioned, maybe even have all of the leagues there mentioned for people who have the patience to read it allXD

The blog: http://onepiece.wikia.com/wiki/User_blog:Ricizubi/Blogs

Weird and ironic name right?

Comments
Oi..I use the comment high lights too:)

Hey DP, I can not access the chat for 2 days now, could you please check what the problem is as an admin? Blackendedsoul 13:20, July 25, 2011 (UTC)

[http://onepiece.wikia.com/index.php?title=Forum:Marine_Ranks_merge&t=20110526103020 According to this forum,no one disagrees with tabulation of this page ....so we can go on right? ]--

Vote for switch
Please DP, would you open the official vote regarding the switch on this forum: here

And just as Levi said, you should open one for Switch between before and after the time-skip and one for manga and anime, also you should leave some room for suggestions. 82.78.244.213 12:21, July 28, 2011 (UTC)

I can do that myself, I wanted to open it tomorrow... but if you want to do that it's the same for me.

The correction of the "Yami" Article
Hey DancePowderer

I am the one who thinks that the name of the article about "Yami" should be changed, and I was left a reply. So I did some reseach that proves that "Yami" is not an sutiable name for it. Check the talk page on the Yami Article, and you will see it. You'll see that

裁きの番人 (Yami's Japanese name) = "Guardian of the Justice" which closely resembles Doom Guardian, but does not say yami

check this badass out

Image Glitches Again
We have another glitch in the image system. This time, File:Mermaid Princess Shirahoshi.jpg  is on the fritz, can't get the color one properly uploaded. What can we do to fix it, or do we have to wait again? 06:38, July 29, 2011 (UTC)

Tried deleting, tried reverting, didn't work. Maybe I'll wait a while before re-uploading the entire thing, hopefully it will clear up soon. 07:45, July 29, 2011 (UTC)

Removing Sysops
Hey DP, I was thinking that since Mugiwara Franky  and  BattleFranky202  are no longer active admins (that is to say they don't participate in voting/community "events" etc.) they shouldn't be on the Admin page. I don't want new users or otherwise to go them for problems since they're unlikely/not responsible for what happens on the wiki anymore. Well, at least MF isn't since he "officially" left. I have no idea what BattleFranky is doing, honestly. Only someone with bureaucrat can do it though. I've contacted Wikia about removing Justyn  and should be hearing back from them within the next few days.

Since Kazuya2070 founded the site, I guess we could give him a special privilege or something. Like, maybe a special template on his user page to indicate it. But the other three, once BattleFranky202 is confirmed to have resigned (or if he does not respond to us for an amount of time), we can remove them. 21:00, July 29, 2011 (UTC)

Hi Matt I am 7oo7 a new member her I am 19 years old it will be great to have a friend to talk with him about different things such as my favourit anime one piece hope we can communicate Seeyou

One Piece in Italy
From One Piece in Italy : "When the Water Seven arc was broadcast, One Piece often reached up to two million viewers and more than 13% of share." I saw your comment in the history asking what's the "share". I thought it was term used in English too, it's a show's percentage of audience, how you call that in English?

I found the article in wikipedia: Nielsen Ratings. On the Italian wikipedia, the share is defined as the rapport between the average number of viewers of a channel and the total active viewers in front of the tv during the transmission of a show. So yes, 13% of the Italian viewers in that moment was watching One Piece : ).

It's not "currently", it was during Water 7 arc. Then what about this: "...and more than 13% of the total Italians viewers."?

Sorry
Sorry. I thought that there was no problem in doing that. I'll make all edits on a page in a single edit from now on. Sorry for the trouble. HanaArashi16 07:10, August 1, 2011 (UTC)

About Shirahoshi trivia
Hello, I noticed you reverted a contribution I made to Shirahoshi's Trivia section and dubbed it 'not important', I can understand that, but I do however have a small question: If it is a trivia section where anecdotal information goes, why the fact Shirahoshi is the second princess the crew befriends is unimportant? The fact right above what I posted looked to me like the same kind of circunstantial information and I've seen this type of trivias in other pages as well. I have this little doubt so I would appreciate if you help me up.

Thanks for your attention, -- Omartron 07:53, August 4, 2011 (UTC)

Chapters - Anime Episodes Section
As the title suggests, I have a question concerning the "Anime Episodes" section in some of the chapter articles. Should they be kept or deleted? Although in my personal opinion, they should be deleted since they seem to serve no purpose.I apoligize for bothering you about this now, but I wish to consult you first before I do anything to the section.

Thank you for your time,

Why am I blocked?

 * Nope,checked and double-checked,you are not blocked:)--

Hey.. Ok, can you delete the pages (i marked them as candidates for deletion) that he made and ban him? Thanks. That guy

Found the song!
You were right on the mark DP, it was Vivaldi! It's their song Four Seasons, but Brook's version of it is deeper and a few notes here and there. Please, take a listen to make sure it isn't me, but Arctic-Fox and I think this is the song which it is based on.

re:Resuming the work
I have the files here and old "concept" here. If you go to the Italian wiki I've upload another background. But how are you going to proceed? Open a forum? Test some backgrounds and hear everybody's opinions? There are probably some minor changes to do on the files, but let's decide which one use first. If you have suggestions, as always, tell me.

Well, it's your choice... tell me how you want to do that. So you want to start a forum a gather opinions on the samples we have? Anyway, I'm not really a designer, but I can do some editing. So let's first decide which image use, then edit it to our tastes to adapt it to the wiki.

is this kid serious?
Hey DP, i think you need to do something about FMF. he just wont stop. hes trying so hard to tell me off and look cool doing it but its not working. hes writing these massive comments and i dont even know what for. you of all people should know not to take the things i say seriously or to heart and FMF just wont stop. ive tried to handle this like an adult and maturely but FMF just wont stop. look at his recent comments. also, i apologize for stirring things up and all that but c'mon, is FMF really serious? you've got to admit, he is acting very immaturely. Imhungry4444 22:57, August 8, 2011 (UTC)

SeaTerror
I see these past few days that SeaTerror has been argumentative again. I saw the editing war you had with him on Soran. And he stubbornly refused and argued against results in forums and polls, and even change things when the votes are already cleared. He's been warned, but still acts like so. Do you think we should ban him, like we did Drunk Samurai (who was once a great editor, but turned bad by insulting everyone)? 06:49, August 9, 2011 (UTC)

Jinbe says we need a forum, so should we? But personally, I think at least one month. 17:07, August 9, 2011 (UTC)

I'll do it. I was just a little busy these past few days. Here's the forum. 07:50, August 11, 2011 (UTC)

Forum:Minor_adjustments_to_Image_Guidelines

Re:Sig Code
Oh shit.. Okay, I asked Roranoa to help me cause he made it.. Sorry, I dunno about this stuff.. !!

Hody Jones
Just curious, but why is Hody being compared to the KKK to begin with? Both Otohime and Fisher Tiger are compared to Martin Luther King and Malcolm X respectively, so logically wouldn't Hody be more in line with the Huey Newton and the Black Panthers as opposed to the Klu Klux Klan, the latter which human society is indirectly compared to by the tones of both the aformentioned articles?

Also, I find the idea that Hody is in line with the KKK because he's a Great White Shark fishman to be a pretty weak connection. By that same logic, Shirahoshi and Whitebeard would also be among their number, because both characters have "white" in their respective names (and in Shirahoshi's case, base fish species).

-WZA

Black Panthers
Just following up on your last message. In actuality, the Black Panthers more than practiced what they preached; while I'm not sure if they preached about being superior to whites, they were renowned for going around and harassing people in Oakland and abroad, both whites and blacks, as well as even going after their own members for any number of reasons. That said however, the group did become somewhat non-radical during the 70s, even going so far as to reneg their original message of black nationalism (which in turn caused the more violent members to break off and form the Black Liberation Army), but overall they're not considered the opposite number of the Klu Klux Klan for nothing.

In Hody's case, I compare him to Huey because both were megalomaniacs who started their respective movements purportedly for the defense of their communities (both through inspiration from their respective role models no less), but became corrupted with power over time as well as completely disregarding of human life. Huey himself was known for being extremely violent and tempermental, as well as for killing people on a whim; for two examples, he murdered a policeman over a minor traffic altercation (John Frey) and later on he killed a prostitute (Kathleen Smith) for calling him "Baby". And just as I wrote in the article, like Hody he too used narcotics (crack cocaine), though obviously he used them recreationally as opposed to Hody using them for doping purposes.

With all that said, is that good enough to write a comparison?

-WZA

Sig codes
Yea,I just noticed that LPK's sig caused a very tiny problem(it's now fixed anyways..),about running a bot,I dont think that can help since I can't get a list of pages that contains codes for signatures('cause we dont maintain a category for user sigs,not needed either')...but I'll try to go through all the codes to spot any mistake,you can do that too..just search the code for any open tags and nearly all the problems will be fixed:)--

Isshi-20
Hey, isnt it obvious that they are in fact Isshi-20? They look alike. The glasses and the masks(changed due to the theme).. And that they are serving Wapol again. Who can possibly be?

Hmm, fine. I'll wait till the next chapter to see, okay..

Deleting a User Page
Do you know how to delete User:Strawgirl ? Apparently, it was a mistake page, not an actual user page, but I don't know how to delete it. So do you? 22:06, August 20, 2011 (UTC)

4Kids Edits Tabs Deletion
Dibs!
 * All done (I think). I still have to remove the tab template, but PX-Bot does not need the admin status to do that.
 * Sorry, forgot the redirects. Should be fast.
 * All done, hopefully.

New profile
Hi DP! There is a bug in the new profile that will display you as chatmod if you are both admin and chatmod. Maybe it will get fixed, but the easiest solution is to remove your chatmod status. You don't need that if you are an admin, you are one as default. And you should increase the size of your avatar! (max is 150x150px)

Ah pobably that bug will be fixed in some days, but if it won't then do as I said!

Yeah DP! Do what levi said! Rici Bot

Re: SBS 63
Thanks for everything! I know I can always depend on you. Anyway, I would also like the entire front cover and the intro for translating, if you don't mind. Just to note, I've erased your address from my talkpage to avoid spamming and so on. Thanks again! 04:29, August 26, 2011 (UTC)

Great. The second cover (right) is probably another message from Oda to the people who are suffering the quake and more (Since luffy is cheering us up). I'm not sure but aren't those messages posted somewhere on this wiki? 14:46, August 26, 2011 (UTC)

Ricizubi's language
Could you talk to Ricizubi about his language? He told me to "fuck off" in an edit summary for the Tori Tori no Mi, Model: Falcon page and called me an aho (which I assume means asshole) and a moron in the chat page. Furthermore, he said that I ran away before he could troll me when I closed the chat page for a second. Bastian 9  6  4  19:25, August 26, 2011 (UTC)

Past vs Present Tense
Sorry to bother you, but on history pages for characters, should past or present verb tense be used? I think present, but before I go editing all the history pages, I want to know which is correct. Thanks.  Pacifista15  | Talk  | 3:52 27/Aug/2011 UTC

Ok I meant that say if it was referring to the Saobody Arc, would I use present or past. "The Straw Hats attacked the pacifista before Luffy destroyed it with a Gigant Rifle" or "The Straw Hats attack the pacifista before Luffy destroys it with a Gigant Rifle." The arc happened in the past, but it occurred in the main storyline, so what happens there.  Pacifista15  | Talk  | 13:23 27/Aug/2011 UTC

Vivi reading pic
Yeah, I don't know why it does the image glitch. It's everytime I upload an updated image for anything it does that. I usually leave it up to some of the mods to fix it. Uploading another I don't think does anything...

Also,do you know why when I add in images to areas of text it doesnt add in the space as I put and jumbles everything together?
