XY

Hello, seeing as you added the Japanese names, it would be awesome if you could find a source for them. Also, a source for the legendary X/Y would be great as well. Starship.paint (talk) 12:10, 8 January 2013 (UTC)

Video's the source. That's all that's necessary.—Ryulong (琉竜) 12:11, 8 January 2013 (UTC)

Kamakura move

You might want to take another look at Talk:Kamakura#Requested move, I don't think he's proposing what you think he is. Jpatokal (talk) 00:54, 14 January 2013 (UTC)

Macdaddyc/Youngsevon

My finger is hovering over the block button for Youngsevon. Got any evidence that would help me convince the rest of the world that were are right? Something that would fill in the missing three years?—Kww(talk) 04:56, 16 January 2013 (UTC)

I recall that there were some images posted to the commons by Macdaddyc and Youngsevon used in his page or something. But the coincidences are just too strong.—Ryulong (琉竜) 05:08, 16 January 2013 (UTC)
If you can spend some time searching, I'd appreciate it. I've come up dry. I'm really suspicious of this editor for a number of reasons (primarily his music article contributions, which always appear to be cut-and-pastes of deleted articles, but I can't prove they are cut-and-paste jobs). If I block based on a 4-year-old autoblock glitch, I'll be laughed at, and I can't piece together anything more concrete.—Kww(talk) 16:32, 16 January 2013 (UTC)
I don't know. That autoblock evidence is pretty strong.—Ryulong (琉竜) 06:42, 17 January 2013 (UTC)

Sotsugyō (Yuki Saito song)

You state that B-sides are omitted in the length of a single in the infobox here. The template documentation doesn't state that anywhere that I can find. Where is this elusive guideline to be found? Thanks! ···日本穣? · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe · Join WP Japan! 07:12, 16 January 2013 (UTC)

I think it's deep in WP:SONG. I know I had the full length included in many articles on singles I've written only for some MOS warrior to trundle along and cut it down to just the A-side length.—Ryulong (琉竜) 07:24, 16 January 2013 (UTC)

Power Rangers Megaforce

Since you don't like complaints more than three sentences long I'll get straight to the point. Yes, I copied stuff from Nicks website but not directly for a reason, as isn't there a wikipedia rule that states "Do not copy and paste directly from sources"? Also the Teaser has been released by Nick therefore you can no longer deny that Megaforce will use stock footage from Goseiger and even if it was 99% likely before (but you wouldn't accept that 1% of doubt) it has now been confirmed now as the footage in the teaser is Goseiger footage. Radix Z (talk) 20:34, 19 January 2013 (UTC)Radix Z

My complaints about the character biographies were that they were still way too close to how things were written on the Nick website. And for the fifty billionth fucking time I am not denying that Megaforce will use stock footage from Goseiger. I am saying posting it on Wikipedia when there has been no written proof of that fact being true is a violation of several of the website's core policies, particularly WP:OR and WP:V. Why do you think this damn discussion took place? You know it's Goseiger. I know it's fucking Goseiger. But the only reason we fucking know it's Goseiger is because we watched Goseiger. And we are not allowed to make the connection ourself because it is against the rules of this website. I don't care that there was a Megazord fight and the Gosei Great card was blatantly shown on screen. That still doesn't make it okay to say "This is from Tensou Sentai Goseiger" because the actual words "Tensou Sentai Goseiger" have not appeared in conjunction with anything from Megaforce. Now do you fucking understand? I'm tired of repeating myself to you and every IP who is someone from Rangerboard or /m/ who thinks I'm a complete fucking idiot because I'm not allowing this shit to be posted because they don't think I know the god damn truth.—Ryulong (琉竜) 00:05, 20 January 2013 (UTC)
Ohohoho, I see. In the end, "It contains stock footage from Tensou Sentai Goseiger" will eventually make it on there anyways" so why NOT sooner? Because the laws of Wikipedia say so? Don't you realise the need to bend the rules a little bit and use some common sense sometimes? Just because of a few rules we have to deny what's blantly obvious? There's no doubt of what will happen yet just because of a few rules you won't allow it. Are the rules really THAT absolute?
You think you're doing Wikipedia a favor? Fine, makes sense. But to all the users of Wikipedia, not so much. No wonder you get into so many arguments. I won't hold a grudge against you, as you seem to have your reasons. However I still can't wait to sit back and smile when those words are permenantly on there. Also lets not forget that once it's revealed that the names Vrak, Malkor and Creepox are offical and you will have no power to remove them from the page, just as I promised many moons ago.
Radix Z (talk) 00:31, 20 January 2013 (UTC)Radix Z
It's going to end up there eventually, but only when we have tangible written proof of it. You don't seem to understand that WP:Verifiability and WP:No original research are two of the most important rules on this site and there should never be any leeway in its application. Verifiability is a core pillar of this website. If something cannot be verified, then it should not be on Wikipedia. And do you not fucking understand that I don't care that once the information is proven to be true that the information will be on the article? It just can't be there now and everyone in the god damn fandom wanting it to be there now is what is pissing me off. So wipe that fucking smug look off of your face already. Once the first episode airs (or once other character names are posted by Saban or Nickelodeon), then I will gladly put "Goseiger", "Vrak", "Malkor", and "Creepox" (or whatever they may be called because for all you know those might be wrong) onto Power Rangers Megaforce. Until then, Wikipedia:Verifiability and Wikipedia:No original research must be followed because we presently have no written confirmation that Goseiger has anything to do with Megaforce and we do not have any character names outside of the six on the page already.—Ryulong (琉竜) 00:37, 20 January 2013 (UTC)
Okay, but what about what I said before? "Isn't there a wikipedia rule that states "Do not copy and paste directly from sources"?" That's the reason I dodn't copy word for word but now either you or someone else has copied it directly. What about that? Radix Z (talk) 16:45, 20 January 2013 (UTC)Radix Z
No. It has not been copied directly. I have no idea where you've gotten that idea from. What I've done is rewrite it because you copied way too closely. Don't you remember anything from elementary school? Write in your own words. That's what I did. I went to the pages, read them, and wrote them in a way that was not basically a quote. It's not a direct copy-paste or whatever you did. Also, learn how to indent on talk pages. This is getting annoying.—Ryulong (琉竜) 02:16, 21 January 2013 (UTC)

Question

I understand why you removed the list of episodes because people can make stuff up. However what would count as a reliable source for those episodes? MajorOcean (talk) 03:35, 21 January 2013 (UTC)

TV Guide, some official schedule on Nick.com, something in a real news site's article. Pretty much anything that isn't a fansite or whose information comes from a fansite. I found one source but I discounted it because it's information came from Ranger Crew, and while they're reputable amongst the fans they cannot be considered reliable on Wikipedia.—Ryulong (琉竜) 03:39, 21 January 2013 (UTC)
Ok that makes sense! I'm sorry for the unsourced episode list addition. I won't happen again, thank you. MajorOcean (talk) 03:42, 21 January 2013 (UTC)

Vento Aureo

Hello, I was under the impression that we were only going to add infoboxes to Stone Ocean, Steel Ball Run and JoJolion, because they were the ones that were removed from the infobox at JoJo's Bizarre Adventure. I assumed that was done because those are the parts that have their own tankōbon volume count and as such can be considered "separate series". Xfansd (talk) 17:12, 24 January 2013 (UTC)

I honestly don't see why it's not useful to have the infoboxes on the first 5 parts. My only problem was having difficulty finding the proper release and end dates for Vento Aureo.—Ryulong (琉竜) 01:48, 25 January 2013 (UTC)
Once again I assumed something without reading up on it, always thought those type of infoboxes should only be in a subject's main article (of course, I can't think of any other manga that's broken up like JoJo, so it's not like there are other articles to refer to). But after actually reading MOS:INFOBOX, it says any type can be used on any article, so I guess I'm cool with adding them to each part of JoJo.
But this leads to other questions, should we add the novels/film/anime stuff to the infobox of whichever Part they adapt? If we do add them, do we leave them in the main JoJo article's infobox? I almost always have trouble finding the publishing dates of the magazine issues that older manga started and ended in. I can't read Japanese, but I would think there are thorough fan sites of both JoJo and Shonen Jump that might have them (don't know if you looked for them that way?). Xfansd (talk) 03:42, 25 January 2013 (UTC)
I think the infoboxes can have the information for the novels and films and OVA, but I think the current anime should be left mentioned in the parent article. And the best I've found is the Japanese Wikipedia has the volumes that the different arcs were serialized in, but I can't find the corresponding release dates anywhere.—Ryulong (琉竜) 13:04, 25 January 2013 (UTC)

PRLG

How's this? List of Power Rangers Lost Galaxy characters ~Switch On 2012~ ( ★ AlienX2009 ★ ) 22:51, 24 January 2013 (UTC)

Yes. That's good. Now try to do the same for Lightspeed Rescue, Time Force, etc..—Ryulong (琉竜) 01:48, 25 January 2013 (UTC)

Userfication req.

As the ultimately deleting editor, could you userfy Easter Egg Archive under User:Lexein/EEA, including the Talk page and all possible history(ies)? I plan to flesh out the article, as the site is now cited by RS, has been published in book form, and has been written about in RS. I'm aware that the histories may be missing article sizes and change sizes, due to a bug from that era. Thanks. --Lexein (talk) 08:40, 25 January 2013 (UTC)

You're asking me to restore a page I deleted 5 years ago when I was an admin. The fact is I currently am not and I cannot do anything to help you. And honestly, if it was deleted as db-web five years ago your best bet is to just start it over from scratch.—Ryulong (琉竜) 13:04, 25 January 2013 (UTC)
No prob. Sorry, didn't notice you're not an admin. --Lexein (talk) 15:14, 25 January 2013 (UTC)

Deleted Power Rangers stars articles

What's wrong with me delinking specific Power Rangers stars articles that have been deleted, which I did via the 67.191.213.183 IP address? 70.193.165.67 (talk) 17:00, 25 January 2013 (UTC)

They could be made into proper articles in the future.—Ryulong (琉竜) 04:01, 26 January 2013 (UTC)

About Towa Chiki

Hi Ryulong. I've done what I can for the article within my limited abilities. Could you possibly have a little look at it? --Shirt58 (talk) 09:49, 27 January 2013 (UTC)

I've sent it to prod because it was a very shitty machine translation.—Ryulong (琉竜) 11:13, 27 January 2013 (UTC)
Thank you. Could you also perhaps have a quiet word with the article's creator about their other contributions? Again, they are a bit out of the scope of my knowledge. --Shirt58 (talk) 14:37, 27 January 2013 (UTC)
