Disambiguation link notification for January 8

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Misplaced Pages appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Buffy the Vampire Slayer Season Nine, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Underdog (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Ennis Del Mar and Jack Twist articles

Hey, Zythe. You might be interested in this discussion. Flyer22 (talk) 16:59, 13 January 2013 (UTC)

You

Are an elitist douche. You're the problem on Misplaced Pages. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.207.65.88 (talk) 08:37, 14 March 2013 (UTC)

Apologies for reverting your edit one time...? And thanks for making the start to my day so negative and personal. Cheers.Zythe (talk) 09:57, 14 March 2013 (UTC)

Yeah, it was one edit. But it's a reversion I've had too many times. I was once an admin here, with tens of thousands of edits and several FAC's under my belt. Reversions like yours are why I left. With your worldly, 22-year experience of life, you dismissed my edit as "cruft", an intentionally insulting term. The "cruft" was a mention that the 10th Doctor's final words, "I don't want to go," are clearly an inversion of his catchphrase, the French term for "Let's go." That's just "cruft". If you'd reverted it looking for a citation that that is what Davies intended - and I have no doubt but no proof he did - I would've shrugged it off - fair enough - and not gotten snippy on your talk page. You're a 22 year old kid who thinks he knows the rules better (other than WP:OWN, of course) than anyone else and feels you have carte blanche to revert anyone with an IP address rather than a user name. Sorry, dude, but you ARE the problem on this website. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.207.65.88 (talk) 08:12, 27 April 2013 (UTC)

Erm, I wouldn't say cruft was insulting: I didn't see how the addition was helpful to summarily telling the story in broad terms for non-fans. I don't think I'm the problem with the site, tbh, but thanks again for making another personal disparagement. The fact that I'm 22 rather than 44 shouldn't make a lick of difference. I resent the accusation that you think I think I "own" articles because I try to discourage trivial overexpansions of content. The "I don't want to go"/"Allons-y" thing is clearly interesting but belongs in a different section with a lovely source to support it.Zythe (talk) 08:32, 27 April 2013 (UTC)

The term "cruft" is insulting. Period. I'm not going to get into why; research it. My addition, long ago, was not a significantly large expansion of an article; it was a single sentence. You reverted it with an insulting edit comment. You decided your "I'm a user-name editor with many edits on Dr. Who articles" opinion was more important than "some anon IP edit" gave you the right to revert, rather than tag it for a citation. That's why I tagged the relevant WP policy and called you elitist. I throw around your age because I remember what an asshole I was when I was 22 - at which age i'd been a Who fan for 15 years already - and honestly, am trying to wind you up, because I remember how sensitive I was about references to my age when I was a kid who thought I was much smarter than everyone older than I. Also, we'd have much in common in our interests, which makes me sad that we've been introduced in an antagonistic fashion. You were crapping in diapers when i became a hardcore Buffy fan. Xander FTW.

I wasn't crapping diapers at 7, but okay. I was even potty-trained by the time the movie came out. Look, I don't dislike you and I'm sorry if you think I think I am some bigshot, but obviously I don't think that and I don't believe I throw my weight around. The fact that I have a username is about convenience not some kind of prestige. As everyone knows, editing Misplaced Pages is not something one is proud of. Look man, I just edit on this thing, and probably could be more tactful with edit summaries, but I don't mean to come over like a dick and I'm sorry if you think my edit summary was indexical of some enormous set of juvenile traits or something. I don't want to get this into a whole discussion about what kind of guy I am outside of Misplaced Pages, but I'd like to think people don't think I'm an asshole blowhard. Can we call peace?Zythe (talk) 09:37, 27 April 2013 (UTC)

Yeah, truce. Sorry dude. I have a lot of grudges against the Misplaced Pages "elite", and the power structure here is still as messed up as when I quit it years ago. Part of that is hyper-elitism against IP edits, and a frequently heavily-loaded use of the word "cruft". Looking back at your edits, you're really not the problem, but reverting an IP edit using the word "cruft" led me to a bunch of assumptions, and I took out a bunch of frustration about that against you, and you didn't deserve it. My apologies. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.207.65.88 (talk) 08:29, 30 April 2013 (UTC)

Talk:Buffy the Vampire Slayer (TV series)#Requested move

I figured that you may want to weigh in on this new move discussion, since you did last time. Flyer22 (talk) 15:56, 27 March 2013 (UTC)

Pansexuality article

Also, Zythe, I've been meaning to tell you about this removal (the Jack Harkness addition that you added). The removal is invalid, of course, because a person can be both pansexual and sexually attracted to aliens or non-human animals, just like a person can be both heterosexual and a zoophile or heterosexual and a pedophile. Besides, what you added to the article about Jack shows that he has sex with aliens that often take the human male or human female form (I'm not sure if he's had sex with an alien while the alien isn't in human form or doesn't naturally look human, because I'm not familiar with the character...though I have watched some episodes of Doctor Who before; it was when there was a different Dr. Who -- the Ninth Doctor (and a bit when the Tenth Doctor came about). And while the Lost Girl entry was unsourced, and sources more often refer to Bo as bisexual, it's not like she has sex with any of the Fae who are non-human animals while they are in non-human form. And just as importantly, if not more so, the information was in the In media section. That means it's about how the media has portrayed pansexuality and other things relating to the media and pansexuality; there is no obligation that the media needs to be accurate before we can include information about their take on the concept.

Talk:Torchwood/GA1

Zythe, the reviewer of this article—a first-time reviewer who had only made a few dozen edits before then—hasn't edited on Misplaced Pages since making the review you so strongly disagreed with. The nominator, Kevin101, has made a large number of edits since then, but a diff doesn't show anything significant. Do you want to take over the review, or does it make more sense to put it back into the reviewing pool and find a new reviewer who will start from scratch? Please let me know. Thanks!

In The Flesh

Hi, I actually had no idea they were "lovers", I assumed you were just adding things you thought were needed when they wasn't ... :So I apologize if I offended you and for the undo's - I was clearly in the wrong! Also the "What are you on" wasn't really needed

ANYWAY Apologies!, Happy Editing!, Kindest Regards, Davey2010 Talk 00:20, 1 April 2013 (UTC)

Haha. The revealing of his injury to his lower forearm is fairly evident of suicide; specifically as it followed Ricks apparent death. Then there was the comment about them "messing around"... ;) Reedy (talk) 01:00, 1 April 2013 (UTC)

Edits

Why do you insist on undoing all of my edits? I am adding more information to the last appearance, you've gone and pressed undo or every single character! I spent alot of time doing that to try and improve these pages and you just go and do that! Who the hell do you think you are? What gives you the right to decide? I was making it more detailed, adding years, adding last full appearance and last cameo for clarification and you delete it all? The way you've left it, some of them don't have a last appearance field at all.

Reading this page, it seems you've done this to many others! It's downright selfish and childish! People like you ruin this website! Pathetic! — Preceding unsigned comment added by I am the real slim shady (talk • contribs) 21:13, 3 April 2013 (UTC)

Last appearances isn't a field which is very useful for 99% of fictional characters. It works best with finite works (e.g. Sherlock Holmes), but not with ongoing serials (such as Doctor Who). It's also not best to specify whether there are "cameo" last appearance and "real" last appearances, as the infobox is for snappy factual data and a "last" appearance is by definition singular if it can be said to even exist.Zythe (talk) 23:05, 3 April 2013 (UTC)

I give up. What gives you the right to decide? Reading this page, you clearly go around deleting everyone's work because you think you're better than everyone else and have the right to decide what goes into each page! I spent quite a while adding that information for every single new series companion and you go and delete it all?! Forget it, I'm done making Wiki edits now and trying to improve pages! What's the point when bullies like you come and destroy other people's hard work? What a spiteful person you are. Hope you're happy. — Preceding unsigned comment added by I am the real slim shady (talk • contribs) 01:07, 4 April 2013 (UTC)

These things have all been debated at great length (e.g. Template_talk:Infobox_character/Archive_3). I'm not spiteful; I'm not sure what there is on this page to make you think so. Please be less emotive.Zythe (talk) 12:02, 4 April 2013 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (File:Carolyn Lance.jpg)

Thanks for uploading File:Carolyn Lance.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Misplaced Pages under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Misplaced Pages. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Misplaced Pages (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Misplaced Pages page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Hazard-Bot (talk) 04:06, 10 April 2013 (UTC)
