Welcome

Hey there, Onikage725. Welcome to Misplaced Pages. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you enjoy being a Wikipedian and decide to stay! Here are a few good links for newcomers (or "oldcomers" for reference):

By the way, you should sign and date your comments on talk and vote pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~. Three tildes (~~~) produces just your name. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. Again, welcome!


Hey there, I noticed you had a blank talk page AND it looks like you're still figuring out a few things. If you want to sign your comments after editing a talk page (like I'm doing right now) you can click the signature button at the top row, second one from the right, or just type four tildes. Let me know if you have any more CT related questions, I also have a wikibook on the subject--BigCow 02:45, 2 February 2006 (UTC)

Hey, I was wondering if there was some way that I could contact you outside of wikipedia? You seem to be an intelligent individual (unlike certain anonymous users) with an in-depth knowledge of the Dragon Ball Z series. I would greatly appreciate the opportunity to speak with you regularly, rather than occasionally throwing up responses to each other when we notice that something new is up. I'd list my AIM address but I don't want any unsavory sorts to get ahold of it. Do you have an e-mail address I could send the information to?

Who moved Freeza to Frieza?

You said you were going to get to the bottom of this, so I decided to do some investigating myself as well and it turns out it was none other than Zarbon that did the honors of moving the page. Just check this out . Looks like we might have another "Wiki-star" on our hands...-3bulletproof16 23:39, 17 June 2006 (UTC)

I need help

Taracka has moved my talk page, and when I tried to move it back, I screwed up, and now my user page redirects to my talk page. It's screwed up and I have no idea how to fix it. Furthermore, Taracka refuses to leave me alone, has been vandalizing my talk page, as well as the Dragon Ball Z Power Levels article. If you know how to help me, or can contact someone who can, I would appreciate it.

Daishokaioshin 22:38, 19 June 2006 (UTC)

I've managed to fix my talk and user pages, but Taracka is still being a jerk. I see you put up a request for assistance. For some reason I have been unable to find the pages with such things. I go to Help, I go to Contact Misplaced Pages, and I don't see the option for such anywhere. Thanks a lot, and I hope that this user is dealt with soon so I don't have to keep bothering you.

Survey- Wiki-star's proposed edits

  • Change Super Buu w/ Gohan to reflect him as the "nicest" of Super Buu's forms.

Misplaced Pages is not a publisher of original thought - Misplaced Pages:Neutral point of view

  • Remove all mention of Buu's video game transformations.

Discussed millions of times and an overall consensus was formed.

  • Re-add the external links.

Misplaced Pages is not a soapbox Misplaced Pages is not a mirror or a repository of links, images, or media files

  • Re-add the episode appearences.

Misplaced Pages is not an indiscriminate collection of information

Just wanted to clear that up.-3bulletproof16 18:02, 22 June 2006 (UTC)

Staw Poll

Hello, you are invited to take part in a straw poll at the Majin Buu page to avoid another revert war with User:Wiki-star.--Orion Minor 23:44, 25 June 2006 (UTC)

Request to take Majin Buu to arbitration...

Snurk, snurk, snurk...

After doing a file report on WP:ANI that was lightly brushed away, administrators suggested taking the case to WP:ARB. The theory being, if User:Wiki-star is as bad as all out, he would shoot himslef in the foot (though he should be lookin' somethin' like the Black Knight by now). As a periphery, I don't feel it's right to act as a cornerstone. Would you organize it?

I'm posting this to several parties involved in this 'lil get-together at Majin Buu, so let them know if you get to it first or decline please. This looks to be our final measure. Papacha 06:07, 26 June 2006 (UTC)

Classification of Piccolo Daimaô

I'm going to put him down for Category: Fictional kings, but should he go under fictional extraterrestrials, fictional demons, or both due to story retcons? Voice of Treason 20:31, 8 July 2006 (UTC)

I would say both, mainly due to his creation. While Ma Junior was born with a normal body and soul (giving him that capacity for good), Daimao was pretty much evil incarnate, the bad impulses of a Namek-seijin given flesh. That's why, I think, his "children" were born as twisted demons and not just "evil" Namek-seijin (aside from Ma Junior of course). Though, if one category had to be chosen, extraterrestrial would be the better fit. Onikage725 20:43, 8 July 2006 (UTC)
Makes sense; that's what I was thinking but it's always nice to have a second opinion (especially in a case where it agrees with you). I'll get on it right away. Voice of Treason 20:47, 8 July 2006 (UTC)

With a song in my heart ~~

You can't always get what you want. But if you try sometimes, well you just might find... you get what you need. Papacha 05:42, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

Well isn't that always true, my good friend... You know, kinda makes you wonder if he'd really clean up his act this time around... ... ... NAH... --3bulletproof16 06:03, 13 July 2006 (UTC)
However... I am going to miss his dramatic way of writing... that Final Atonement speech almost (ahem... ALMOST) brought a tear to my eye. Well not really, but still pretty dramatic. --3bulletproof16 06:19, 13 July 2006 (UTC)
That final speech would have been more impressive if he had an adult proof read it first... Onikage725

The Return of Wiki-Star

Well for once I'm somewhat flattered that he actually addressed me this time. Though I'm not too fond of him saying that he was going to kill me, I do, however, manage to find some comedic relief in all this at the thought of him attempting to kill me. Here's my analysis: He can't write at all so my guess is another Dragon Emperor "Sockpuppet". However, the IPs responsible for the recent vandalism are AOL trolls so there is a slim possibility that Wiki-star could indeed be making himself look like an ass again... --3bulletproof16 21:44, 15 July 2006 (UTC)

If you're around right now

Check out the discussion for Kuririn, where Buster Sword cites the manga isn't an "official source", as it's a direct translation (along with FUNi's subtitles). Voice of Treason 00:03, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

It's more that I find it PREPOSTEROUS that "subtitles and MANGA aren't... official, they are simply a direct translation" is even thinkable, it's not even logical. It's one of the most nutty things I've ever heard on Misplaced Pages, and I've talked with Wiki-star... Voice of Treason
I find it funny that there's a group of anime fans who love the shows but hate the language. I'm not a dub hater, but I've seen companies do it too, especially 4Kids - making onigiri into ice cream(?!) on Pokemon, for example. Voice of Treason 00:50, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

Creation of character critique in articles

From what I was told in peer review, articles on fictional characters need to abide by WP:WAF, and getting a GA on one is tougher than before. That's all I know, as far as that goes. Voice of Treason 18:56, 22 July 2006 (UTC)

A tip

http://en.wikipedia.org/search/?title=Hercule_%28Dragon_Ball%29&diff=90001625&oldid=89893767

Don't move articles if their move requests failed. WhisperToMe 22:12, 25 November 2006 (UTC)

That's not an excuse to completely disregard policy. See WP:JARLAXLE - He tried to argue about how WP:MOS didn't apply to him. Didn't work. The policies you mentioned may give people some leeway, but they won't grant you an immediate escape from a failed move request. WhisperToMe 23:31, 25 November 2006 (UTC)

This wasn't an ordinary straw poll, anyway. This was Misplaced Pages:Requested moves - Since it ended in "Don't Move," the page shall remain that way. WhisperToMe 23:50, 25 November 2006 (UTC)
