Apology and explanation
There's no easy way for me to do this, so bear with me.

For starters, I wanted to apologize for yesterday. Sleeping and calming down have given me a new perspective on things. Funny how that works.

Thing is, I suppose that my issue was that I kept taking it personally whenever you closed discussions that I was a part of. You were just doing your job (which I can imagine isn't always easy) but I took it the wrong way. Likewise, I think I should emphasize that I'm an aspie with a depression. What that means is that, as it turns out, I take criticism far harder than regular people. Now, I know that constructive criticism is a thing, really, but whenever people criticise me, I just can't help but strongly feel like they don't like what I'm doing.

...Wow, this was easier in my head.

Point is, I realize I shouldn't bear you ill will. If anything, I kinda empathize with your position here more. Plus, if it makes you feel any better, I am on antidepressants for years now, and likely for years to come.

...See, this is why I prefer to talk things out. I know you had your reasons, but stopping discussions before people can fully get things off of their chests only makes things worse IMO.

So, yeah, TL;DR is this: I'm sorry. Timjer (talk) 06:51, April 25, 2019 (UTC)


 * Just wanted to let you know I read your reply and I am touched that you were so open with me as well. Sorry for being so late to reply, as I kinda let it sink in and I didn't really know how to respond. TBH, I'm not really that good at, well, this. Honestly, I thinkt that having talked like this really helped patch things up between us.


 * PS: Just in case you don't have the wrong idea, I only mentioned my medication to build a bit of a bridge. I wasn't implying that you'd be happy I am reliant on it.Timjer (talk) 09:38, April 26, 2019 (UTC)


 * I'm fine, thanks for asking. I just had some internet problems these last few days, hence my lack of responses. Regardless, rest assured I'm not planning on giving up my work on CFYOW (or any other work on this wiki I can do). Partly because I've already put so much work into it I might as well finish it.

Verification
Hi there! Just wanted to verify that I am reaching out to you on Discord! Furusato (talk) 23:20, April 30, 2019 (UTC)

Yachiru Topic From Over a Year Ago
hey i didn't get notifications about replies to my thread before it closed (https://bleach.fandom.com/wiki/Thread:119400#6)

my concern is that when yachiru touches kenpachi a power emerges from the area she touched him.

even discounting translations she tells him that the power is bankai explaining it to him before he uses it the first time.

the during the fight she is seen on his shoulder (presumably) inside his head and not in the real world.

https://youtu.be/VlIfZ8TLj30?t=114

she also appears to regulate his powers with the comment about releasing to much.

again sorry for not responding while the thread was open Nailo1 (talk) 11:55, May 11, 2019 (UTC)

The Canonicity Thread
It would appear that the thread has been closed. I'm sorry to see that. When I saw that you had posted that thread, I was quite interested, thrilled even. It seemed like you were giving the userbase a chance to speak with you on equal grounds about the canonicity of the light novels, which seems to have been a touchy subject on this wiki for awhile. Yet the thread has been closed, so did you not open it with the intention of discourse? I would hope that you read a little further past the mention of the word "crappy" in GokBlack's post? There were users — and I would happily count myself among that enlightened number — who were making perfectly valid points. I do hope that you will go back to that thread, closed or otherwise, and hopefully look at the comments that were striving to make a point or two? This wiki has the capacity to become beautiful, but not at the expense of cutting new content at the root. I hope to be able to help you all for quite some time in the future, as a fellow fan of Bleach.--Cuter than you ( talk to me ) 09:13, May 18, 2019 (UTC)
 * You have my sincerest condolences for any negative experiences you may have had with certain individuals in the past, but all I can really offer are those hollow words. However, I don't believe someone's negative behaviour immediately negates their words if said words happen to be of worth. I am aware that this wiki has novel pages, that much you all are doing. The subject I would like to broach is the incorporation of this material onto proper articles of the actual characters — such as Hisagi, who is critical, and the creation of articles for the characters who debut in these works, such as Hikone. A discussion that would require a revision of your canon policity is certainly critical in this juncture, but it appears as if Xilinoc would also be interested in addressing this matter, so that certainly gives me hope that this can be rectified.--Cuter than you ( talk to me ) 09:40, May 18, 2019 (UTC)
 * Presumptuous of me though it may be, I do not believe that tabbers are the way to handle this matter. I will pull from my contributions to that thread in this regard: Kubo is an acting consultant for these novels. He seems to have had actual conversations with the writer of the novel and shared information with the writers of these novels. He has provided both concepts and illustrations for these novels, outright designing character Bankais and I believe even the illustrations used within the work are done by Kubo himself. I believe you said on the thread that if we consider it canon, that's fine, but you do not consider it canon here. Those words could be reversed with ease: If you don't consider them canon, fine, fantastic, but I believe it would do you well to listen to others and open your mind to be convinced. If Kubo is as heavily involved as he seems to be, that should take precedence over any agreements you've had in-house over the years.--Cuter than you ( talk to me ) 09:45, May 18, 2019 (UTC)
 * These novels, being influenced directly bu Kubo on such a large scale, would weigh far more heavily than the games or movies, which do not possess near that much credit. The fact that these novels tie directly into the manga, serving as a direct continuation, with input from the original author far surpassing anything except the original published work, would be more than enough for most wikis. I hope I can change your mind in a potential thread, as Xilinoc stated he intends to open discourse on this matter once again. Despite what was said in that thread, he seems like he would be more reasonable and open to new ideas on this matter. I sincerely hope we can come to an agreement at some point. I will be an active contributor for a little while further, as I've been adding game content from Brave Souls to certain articles. Hopefully that will be of use for now.--Cuter than you ( talk to me ) 09:52, May 18, 2019 (UTC)

Hello I start the thread in the hopes of discourse but I got caught up in going to basic training and forgot about it till recently, no offense. I'm on my phone not sure how to do the signature on here it's nailo1 got home Nailo1 (talk) 21:25, May 21, 2019 (UTC)

Re: Heads Up on Closure
Don't worry, I get it. That thread instantly devolved into a lot of newcomers throwing excrement around for no reason. Some valid points were made, yes, and some users tried to keep it civil, but it was mostly drowned out by the toxicity. Might as well scuttle it before it degenerates further. Timjer (talk) 09:22, May 18, 2019 (UTC)

Re:Thread
Yes, your statement has proved most illuminating. Thank you.--Cuter than you ( talk to me ) 19:11, May 21, 2019 (UTC)

Implementation of Novel Content
Hello SunXia, I don't think we've ever actually talked. I'm Kenji and I've been an active editor of two Bleach fanon wikis over several years, and a frequent lurker of the question boards over here. I don't intend to start anything unsavoury -- I just thought I'd throw that out there before you read anything more, considering some of the heated debates regarding the topic of my heading lately. Reading other messages I believe its the tabbed system you and others on the admin team prefer? Or are there other plans for implementing the information? I'm just curious because I could start posting some of the information in my sandbox for the time being. Kenji-Taichō (Talk)  12:14, May 25, 2019 (UTC)


 * No problem, and cheers. I'll drop Timjer a message first and foremost and see which translations he uses predominately, so we're singing from the same hymn sheet as it where. Hope you have a nice day! Kenji-Taichō (Talk)  12:36, May 25, 2019 (UTC)


 * CFYOW is probably the most documented; a lot of fans where excited about Shinji and Hisagi's promised Bankai, and that was easily the question I seen the most on various forums. I've seen several translations for CFYOW -- some impressive, some not so much. MissStormCaller on tumblr is widely linked though. This reddit post might prove useful and is the page I use when looking things up. Kenji-Taichō (Talk)  12:54, May 25, 2019 (UTC)

Re: Proving yourself
Thanks for the concern, that's honestly very touching. Regardless, rest assured I don't feel pressured, as the message was meant less for you fellow bleach wiki workers and more for anon visitors to assure them that, despite my edits being infrequent, I'm still commited to finishing it. Sorry if it came out wrongly, as I have a bad habit of doing that. Timjer (talk) 13:24, May 28, 2019 (UTC)

Oh, you play Brave Souls? What's it like anyway, especially the gameplay? I've been thinking of finally trying it, but I'm cautious because I have no idea what to expect. I'm also a bit afraid it's a "pay-to-win" cashgrab, you see. Timjer (talk) 14:25, May 28, 2019 (UTC)
