User talk:Xilinoc

Welcome
Hi there, I'm Xilinoc, an administrator and member of the Policy and Standards Committee here on Bleach Wiki. Feel free to ask me anything about anything, be polite, and remember to sign your posts with four ~ so I can properly respond to you. Thanks in advance.--Xilinoc (talk) 21:53, 9 August 2023 (UTC)

Kirio Hikifune revert
Hey Xil, I just noticed you had to revert an edit on Hikifune's page by the user "Jerryalphonso". The reason I bring this up is that I've had to revert almost every edit made by that user so far, and a large majority of them consist of changing wording on Hikifune's page like what you just had to revert. Aside from Jerryalphonso's blatant edit warring on that front, I've also long since warned them about their edits, but they clearly refuse to listen. Perhaps a time-out is in order? Timjer (talk) 09:08, 20 March 2023 (UTC)

New page - opinion
So, I was thinking of adding a new page to this place; a page concerning the supposed "primordial world" the Soul King was born from (according to CFYOW, of course). See, both my recent discussion with "Yaujj75" concerning some inaccurate translations I was still relying on, as well as the fact that I'm having withdrawal symptoms from a lack of Bleach content (July can't come soon enough), and my existing fascination with the "primordial chaos" trope, I felt like writing a page about the subject. While I've already written up a WIP on my sandbox, I'm hestitant to make it into an actual page; we have no official name for said realm, we have no images to fill the page with, no info on the structure or society of said place... I mean, even Hell had more to go with back in the earlier days. Hence why I wanted your opinion. Do you think it's worth making it into its own page? And if so, what should we name it? If we can't find a use for it, I'll just keep it on my sandbox for now. Timjer (talk) 18:42, 11 April 2023 (UTC)


 * Fair enough. Hopefully I might still be able to so something with it in the future. Who knows, maybe the TYBW anime or the Hell arc might incorporate some CFYOW elements into canon. A recent interview had Kubo imply he was working on some new designs for something... Timjer (talk) 18:50, 11 April 2023 (UTC)

Lost Agent Arc Timeline Minor Discussion
Sorry to disturb you but I need to talk to you about the Lost Agent/Fullbringer Arc timeline who just recently reverted. The first section say the date is May 2003 but the rest of the table state it took place in April. So does the Arc take place in May or April? I thought 17 months from December 2001 would be May 2003, I could be wrong but I really don't understand the contradicting month. So which is it? Yau JJ the Editor (talk) 03:40, 12 April 2023 (UTC)

Colored Covers - again
Hey Xil, I was thinking about a discussion we had several months ago, concerning waiting with adding colored versions of chapter covers. I know what you said back then, and I understand it, but I still feel like making those changes. It just bugs me that some really awesome covers are still uncolored. Now, I know you'd prefer if they were all done in order by chapter number, but I'll be honest here, it's a bit harder for me to do it that way. Not only does the free website I use only allow for so many jpg-to-png conversions per day, but my slight ADD kinda compels me to work on the "prettier ones" first. I know that might be annoying to some people (and even to me it is) but I'm afraid that if I'm going to start forcing myself to do it more orderly, I'm going to burn out quicker.

Anyway, what I'm trying to say is this, either I'll still leave them for now, or I'll do them in my own, more "disorganized" way. I'll just leave it to you to decide what you prefer. Timjer (talk) 12:12, 21 April 2023 (UTC)


 * Tbh, it doesn't sound that fair as now it seems like I'm making you do all my work... That was meant for humor, btw. I appreciate it, though, and I'll see if I can post several more myself by next week. Timjer (talk) 18:28, 21 April 2023 (UTC)

Impolite troll in comment section
Hey, this may sound a bit stupid, but I wanted to report the user Kyler cranor for a timeout. What started out as a semi-mature discussion quickly devolved into name-calling and cursing on their end after I politely tried to factually correct them... You can see it here. Timjer (talk) 12:26, 25 April 2023 (UTC)

Ise Nanao?
Hi there! I was re-reading the TYBW arc and the reveal about Nanao's mother, and I'm not sure it can be considered cannon that Nanao was fathered by Kyoraku Shunsui's brother. Shunsui states his brother died shortly after getting married, and Shunsui was a child then. Nanao would have to have been conceived before this death, leaving her to be nearly the same age as Shunsui. Perhaps I missed something? Also, wouldn't Shunsui have called her his brother's daughter / his own niece? Thanks in advance if I missed something and you can clarify! Wazawhy (talk) 07:39, 10 May 2023 (UTC)


 * Thank you for replying! I can see how that would be a conclusion to come to. Just for the sake of getting my thoughts out there, I still find it weird that Shunsui went from 8-9ish to 40ish and Nanao went from 3-4ish to 9-ish in the centuries between the death of Shunsui's older brother and the events of TBTP, but I suppose there are probably other characters who have remained chlidren for that long. Shunsui is well known for helping women in their times of need, so I didn't consider he would need a blood relation to help out Nanao. I immediately thought it was him wanting to help his brother's widow, and that the reason we learn so much about the relationship between Nanao's mother and Shunsui's brother is that it's what motivated Shunsui to care enough to help do something so risky and for Nanao's mother to trust him to be able to do it. I simply felt it was more of an assumption that they're related, and that Nanao's mother wouldn't have conceived later in a way that jives with the timeline. I have a feeling this has come up before for you haha sorry to have added to it! Wazawhy (talk) 08:22, 10 May 2023 (UTC)

Unbanning a certain jokester
Hey Xil, you may not remember this, but recently you permabanned a user (TaytheChicken) after they made a rather dumb "joke" on their userpage about how this site hates them apparently. Now, I'm bringing this up because other people are asking to unban them here. While I didn't give them any guarantees, I did promise to talk to you at least, as according to them, Tay really just was making a very dumb joke and didn't mean to offend. So, perhaps a permanent ban is a bit excessive. Timjer (talk) 15:49, 15 May 2023 (UTC)

Relationship, Potential New Section
Hi, I have talk with Timjer about new potential section of Relationship at least for important characters. While I was browsing through the wiki, I noticed the Jin Kariya's relationships are mixed in the personality section which I think makes reading very confusing. What are your thoughts on this? Timjer gave it thoughts about it. Yau JJ the Editor (talk) 02:01, 16 May 2023 (UTC)

Reporting a spammer in the social section
Hey, just wanted to report a user named "Miss terin auh". They keep spamming fanart unrelated to Bleach in the social section. I keep having to remove it and I even warned them about it, but it seems they keep doing it. I think a timeout is in order. Timjer (talk) 08:40, 22 May 2023 (UTC)

Transphobic vandal
Hey Xil, you might want to do something about the user "Akudabar". They've been changing Giselle's pronouns to "he" and such on various pages despite me telling them to stop. Timjer (talk) 17:16, 28 May 2023 (UTC)

Upload Error
I am having a problem with replacing the image you unlocked the other night. It just states the following, "This page has been protected to prevent editing or other actions." Should I wait a couple days to try again, or is it a bug? Greatsage92 (talk) 19:13, 28 May 2023 (UTC)

Why was I blocked for a year?
About a year ago, I was blocked for seemingly no reason. Now I'm finally unblocked. But I never got a reason to why I was blocked for a year. Why was I blocked for a year? my feet GlowstoneLove (tawk.) 22:14, 5 June 2023 (UTC)

Potential sockpuppet
So, concerning the user "19johndoe96nd2" and their recent edits that both of us had to revert, I actually find them a bit suspicious. While I may not have concrete proof, I can't help but feel their pointless-at-best edits are very similar to a bunch of other pointless-at-best edits a very obstinate and currently blocked user ("Jerryalphonso") made in the past. Both always felt the need to make edits to Noel and especially Hikifune's pages about their body types. Timjer (talk) 10:51, 6 June 2023 (UTC)

Schrift infobox image
Hey, just wanted to thank you for uploading an image for the Schrift page. I figured there was such an image in the manga (although I somehow remembered it being a different letter than "B"), but for the life of me I simply couldn't remember which chapter it appeared in hence why I hadn't added it myself.

Also, on a side note, just wanted to reassure you that I'm fully ready for the 8th of July, so I'll be able to start adding any anime-exclusive info from that episode ASAP. Timjer (talk) 19:35, 6 July 2023 (UTC)

Expanded about Bleach: Official Character Book 3 UNMASKED techniques
Good evening Xilinoc I am writing to you with a question about the techniques of Bleach: Official Character Book 3 UNMASKED on pages 154 and 155, there are 5 techniques that I do not see among those listed in the Unmasked Project/Archive Techniques 5 which belong to the categories of Hakuda, Zanjutsu, Body Reconstruction, Quincys and tactics of a student, which belong to the following

Hakuda

KUKAKU SHIBA "Kūkaku Empty Smash" (空鶴叩き潰し Kūkaku Tataki Tsubushi) Kūkaku proceeds to close his fist putting all the force crashing it against the head of his target.

"Kūkaku Heel Crush" (空鶴かかと潰し Kūkaku Kakato Tsubushi) Kūkaku proceeds to perform a high heel kick into his target's head.

ZANJUTSU

YUMICHIKA AYASEGAWA "Beautiful sword fight" (ビューティフルチャンバラ, Byūtifuru chanbara, "Beautiful sword fight"): Technique that consists of shaking the Zanpakutō quickly and strongly while holding it with both hands.

BODY RECONSTRUCTION

MAYURI KUROTSUCHI "It’s the Mayuri-style *** technique!" (マユリ式○○○(ビー)術ダヨ Mayurishiki *bī* jutsu da yo) Kurotsuchi proudly speaks to us of this technique he used to revive Nemu following her playing host to Szayelaporro's "Gabriel" technique. However, the data is actually *bleep*'d here in the book because, if you remember that part of the story, the process was apparently raunchy beyond telling and should not have been viewed by anyone.

QUINCY

URYU ISHIDA Sōru Dokkingu (ソウル・ドッキング, Soul Docking): Uryu proceeds to use Kojaku with the Zangetsu tied to his head while Ichigo holds it to amplify his spiritual power from the Kojaku's arrows fired at a target, this first joint work of Ichigo and Ishida.

TACTICS OF A A STUDENT

MIZUIRO KOJIMA Fascination (魅惑 Miwaku) Mizuiro "He has a cute face, but he's actually a cute boy", he embarrasses himself by waving a wet look and shining strength at whoever looks at him, he's shy in nature and irresistible to everyone.

I would like to know if these are being taken into account as techniques or discarded for some specific reason and if in the future they will be included as techniques here in this wikia or if they are not taken into account for some reason, I would appreciate an answer from you on this subject.

I say goodbye bye.

Please unprotect the page The Last 9Days.
Please unprotect the page THE LAST 9DAYS (episode) so it can be edited, so I can add the episode info.

New images
First of all, great work on the extensive summary and the new images. Coincidentally, you started uploading them just as I was going to leave my PC to do something less constructive, so perfect timing on that by the way. Anyway, that aside, if you don't mind me asking, there are 2-3 images from the episode I'd like to have here as well. First, the bird's-eye view of Ichibe's city. Secondly, the close-up of Ichibe's shrine in the mountains (of which I'm stilly trying to figure out what the name refers to so I can give it a proper page), and finally a close-up of Askin's Gift Ball. Think you can still manage? Timjer (talk) 20:36, 8 July 2023 (UTC)


 * Don't worry, that pic of the shrine is exactly what I meant, sorry if I wasn't clear enough. It really gives a much better idea of the sheer scale of the place than the manga image does. Timjer (talk) 21:08, 8 July 2023 (UTC)

Rude user in social section
Hey, I came here to report the user "Bob74h2"; they've been calling other users "retarded oafs" and such during a discussion, which is something that I think we shouldn't allow. At least one user (who I found to be a refreshing voice of sanity in the social section) felt insulted enough to leave because of that. Timjer (talk) 19:33, 14 July 2023 (UTC)

Episode 381 - BG9 image
Hey Xil, if you don't mind, could you upload a screenshot of BG9 holding its Minigun just as it's about to be used on Omaeda? Thanks. P.S.: I agree that the episode was a bit underwhelming, but I really hope the next one will fix that again. Timjer (talk) 11:11, 16 July 2023 (UTC)


 * Huh, I just rewatched that scene and you're right. The missing Wandenreich emblem was a detail I overlooked. Still, there is something else I've been meaning to ask; can you tell me who among the team is currently responsible for helping translate Japanese? I've been itching to make a page for Ichibe's temple (and by extension the weird pathway Ichigo is in), but I'd prefer to have the proper name of the place (both Kanji, Romanji, and translation) before starting on it. Timjer (talk) 18:22, 16 July 2023 (UTC)

"Appearances in Other Media" text overlap with table glitch?
I noticed that the Appearances in Other Media section on various pages seems to have a glitch where the first word of the bulleted text below the table of video-game appearances overlaps with it, appearing on the upper left side of the table -- which is what I meant in my editing reason for White's page. Is that supposed to happen, is it just the browser I'm using, or is it a genuine glitch in the Bleach wiki's coding? Ascha&#39;Vovina (talk) 06:24, 19 July 2023 (UTC)

Time out for new vandal
Hey Xil, you might want to give the user "AaSTC" a time-out. Their first and only edit so far consisted of vandalizing the Gigai page. Timjer (talk) 09:58, 19 July 2023 (UTC)

Young Zaraki image - episode 376
Hey, I noticed we lack a proper profile pic of child Zaraki like we have for Shunsui. I was wondering if you could upload one from episode 376; I'm thinking of the image at 3:26, 4:01, or 6:00 (at least, according to D+ timestamps). Whatever one you think is best, thanks. Timjer (talk) 07:06, 20 July 2023 (UTC)

Ep 382 image requests
Hey Xil, once again good job on the summary of the latest episode. If you don't mind, I'm actually looking for two images you haven't uploaded yet. One is of the closed flower bud of Shinji's Bankai, and the second is of the hollowfied Daiguren Hyorinmaru (the second frame, once Hyorinmaru's spirit itself is gone from the background). Thanks. Timjer (talk) 07:46, 23 July 2023 (UTC) EDIT: On second thought, could you also upload an image of Shinji standing in front of the firing squad of Soldat? Thanks. Timjer (talk) 07:51, 23 July 2023 (UTC)

Image request
I can't edit Yhwach's gallery so could you add this to it? File:610Yhwach declares.png

Also, could you add a pic of Uryu after he drinks Yhwach's blood in the anime? Lightning Laxus (talk) 17:56, 26 July 2023 (UTC)


 * Bump on the Uryu drinking blood pic? Lightning Laxus (talk) 11:22, 31 July 2023 (UTC)

Reporting a spammer - again
Hey, I wanted to report the user "Miss terin auh" for spamming the social section with non-bleach fanart, again. They have been blocked for the exact same reason before, so maybe a more severe ban is in order. Timjer (talk) 18:08, 1 August 2023 (UTC)

Mask Vollstadig
I think this crop looks better but I rather not go through the drama of overriding you so I'll just let you decide. Lightning Laxus (talk) 23:54, 5 August 2023 (UTC)

Image request.
Hey Xil, I was looking for a specific image from Episode 380 - THE LAST 9DAYS. Specifically a shot near the very end of the episode of the Seireitei and the Shakonmaku mere moments before the Shadows start enveloping it. Thanks. Timjer (talk) 10:26, 6 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Bumping this in case it might have flown under the radar. Timjer (talk) 09:07, 8 August 2023 (UTC)

Locked Episodes
I attempted to update images from ep 137 with blu-ray versions, however the episode apparently has the cascading option on, preventing updates, I think 136 maybe the same. If possible would you unlock the episode? Greatsage92 (talk) 16:32, 6 August 2023 (UTC)

Thanks because this is what it is giving me. "This page has been protected from editing because it is transcluded in the following page, which is protected with the "cascading" option turned on:
 * Patros's Rebellion" Greatsage92 (talk) 21:12, 6 August 2023 (UTC)

Reporting a spambot/scammer
I've already deleted their spam post, but you might want to do something about "Henderson247". Timjer (talk) 16:41, 8 August 2023 (UTC)

How do you do it?
Hey, this may be a bit of an unconventional post, but I was browsing the Bleach subreddit and it seems the users are once again having a hate boner for us (here. Seems like that time of month again. Now, thing is the usual vitriol and disagreements I can tolerate. They're entitled to disagree with policies and all. But what annoys me the most is how our own fandom keep spreading lies about this place. Like saying we hate the ending and novels because we are Ichiruki shippers (yes, really), or that we personally purged the Media Wiki, or that this place is utterly devoid of novel content whatsoever, or that we refuse to acknowledge Kubo's own statements for... whatever inane reason now. Anyway, what I'm trying to say is does it bother the rest of you guys? I don't recall many other wikis having such a bad reputation amongst its own fanbase. Now don't worry, I'll still continue editing this place as at the end of it all I still enjoy doing so. And I'll be damned if I let our own fandumb take that away from me. But sometimes I wonder if it would be nicer if we wouldn't be a scapegoat for everything wrong with our fandom or Bleach as a franchise... Sorry for this small rant, I just wanted to get this off my chest. BTW, thanks for cleaning up the discussions. It was getting hard doing it all by myself. Timjer (talk) 09:06, 9 August 2023 (UTC)


 * Yeeesh, I didn't know death threats were sent this way. That's messed up. Anyway thanks for the pep talk, really. And keeping on because you don't want to give them the satisfaction is as good a reason as any if you ask me. P.S.: Now, I realize that the edits I just made to the Mask and James pages may seem like I'm capitulating to the complainers, but I swear I was just looking at the official site for new info on the next episode and, out of curiosity, looked at James section which now has him listed as "Sternritter S". So, yeah. P.P.S.: You know, a funny thing about Narita that I noticed was that, even among his devotees for writing the "Bleach Holy Book", they still often silently agree that his powerscaling tends to make no sense whatsoever. Timjer (talk) 18:40, 9 August 2023 (UTC)

Latest Submission Removed
I'm confused again. This time, I just removed two manga pics from Nanao Ise's page and replaced them with the anime version of the picture and they were both removed. I made sure I filled out a FUR template for the first picture and got it in a high quality. And for the second, I just used a picture that was already submitted. What did I do wrong?

Blocking obstinate user
Hey, I'm reporting the user "Vampiro2018" once again. They've been warned, blocked, and warned again several times for their unconstructive edits that I keep having to revert and they just refuse to respond. I'm very tired of their behavior. Timjer (talk) 19:50, 15 August 2023 (UTC)

Reporting a spammer in social section
Just FYI, the user "Pillspogchamp" keeps making the same pointless posts about "how many years was the blood war". No matter how many times it's answered or how many times I've deleted it, they keep reposting it. One time even with a list of "answers" that are just random numbers. Timjer (talk) 14:16, 17 August 2023 (UTC)

Key Visual names
I was planning on uploading TYBW key visuals 4 and 5 but I noticed that the file names are not consistent for 1-3, so I don't know what to name them as.


 * File:TYBWKey Visual1.png
 * File:TYBWKey Visual2.png
 * File:TYBWKey Visual3.png (This is the third)

Could you standardize them? Lightning Laxus (talk) 19:09, 17 August 2023 (UTC)

Admin+
Hey there! I’m reaching out to introduce the Admin+ program (if you haven’t heard about it already!) & let you know I’m here if you have any questions about it. Take a look at the details here & feel free to send over any questions you have. pikushi ✧.*  19:33, 17 August 2023 (UTC)

Ichibei
Hello Xilinoc, sorry for the inappropriate editing but wouldn’t Ichibei be considered a Master Swordsman considering he is the leader of the Royal Guard. He fought evenly with Yhwach. Yhwach easily fought Ichigo in Bankai at the time and kinda had the upper hand the whole fight. And about his physical strength; this man literally sent Yhwach flying back to the Soul King Palace entrance with just a simple swing of his weapon. Senri Tsūtenshō sent Yhwach flying 1000 ri or 2,440 miles away. That takes immense physical strength to do and to just casually send him back like that is insane. We normally see characters at best send other characters through buildings or simply to the ground.(MasterCTP1 (talk) 13:53, 24 August 2023 (UTC))

Oetsu
Is there a talk page for Oetsu. I wanted to bring up a topic about him be promoted to Shunpo Master like his fellow members of the Royal Guard. Oetsu quickly overwhelmed Yhwach’s elite sternritter with extreme speed and quickness; he easily blitzed Pernida before it could react, casually blocked multiple bullets from Lille’s X-axis power that pierces through anything or anyone caught in between its line of sight and proceeds to slash him across the chest, defeated Gerard in one attack after he easily dodges his attack, and moved so fast that Askin didn’t know what happened until after Oetsu slashed his throat.(MasterCTP1 (talk) 01:16, 25 August 2023 (UTC))

Is there a block on Oetsu’s talk page? Every time I try and post my question it says error.(MasterCTP1 (talk) 12:28, 25 August 2023 (UTC))

Something is wrong with the page sir. Every time I try and post my topic I get this message.

The page you wanted to save was blocked by the spam filter. This is probably caused by a blacklisted link or pagename. Block ID #545781 Your content triggered the spam filter for the following reason: Illegal online scan link If you think this is wrong, please contact us here. Please, provide a copy of this message when reporting any problem.

This is weird.(MasterCTP1 (talk) 19:33, 25 August 2023 (UTC))

Shinji’s Weight
I just did research. Shinji’s weight is 60kg not 58kg. It’s on the sketch that shows all the captains and vice-captains from turn back the pendulum. It shows their height and weight in the Bleach: Official Character Book 2 MASKED databook.(MasterCTP1 (talk) 05:49, 26 August 2023 (UTC))

Re: Late Summaries
Hey, let me first say that I get it, truly. This wiki is something we fans are supposed to do in our free time for fun. It's not a good sign if you have to start forcing yourself to do so. None of us want to be burned out here. As for how I'll handle it, I'm not sure yet. I agree that Edanakas could get the most important images up instead, but I am kinda worried if I unlock the pages for summaries that numerous newcomers will start edit warring over it. On the other hand, if I keep them locked I'm sure other newcomers will start throwing vitriol around like "how come this wiki isn't updated yet!?" I'll have to think about that first. Luckily we're on a one week break now. Timjer (talk) 07:29, 27 August 2023 (UTC) P.S.: Just so you know, I plan to make pages for the Bambies' unique attacks, so don't feel pressured about doing it all yourself now. I just don't have an ETA for when I'll be finished with them. Timjer (talk) 08:56, 27 August 2023 (UTC)

Byakuya
Hello again, I made a new topic on Byakuya’s talk page and I just wanted it to r known to you and to get your opinion on it.(MasterCTP1 (talk) 21:56, 27 August 2023 (UTC))

No Breathes from Hell colored
Hey Xil, just in case you didn't know, but apparently the No Breathes from Hell chapter will recieve a digital colored release next week. It'd be nice to get some color versions of the various images from there. Normally I'd leave it to you, but if you want, I could try to make some decent screenshots to upload if I can find them. Like profile pics for Rukia, Szayelaporro, and Mayuri, for one. Is that alright? Timjer (talk) 09:28, 28 August 2023 (UTC)


 * Thanks for pointing that out about Edanakas, as I'm not entirely sure I'd be able to find decent material to work with in time. Regardless, I'll do my best to coordinate our work. Timjer (talk) 10:42, 29 August 2023 (UTC)

Navigation tab at the top suggestions
Hey, there are some things about the Navigation tab at the top that have been bothering me, but I neither want nor can't alter it without admin approval, so I wanted to talk to you first. First of all, I find it weird that "Quincy" are not amongst the "Races" group, but Toju (a filler sub-group of Zanpakuto) are. Likewise, maybe we should remove "Quincy" from "terms" and switch it with the "Oken" or something. What do you think? Timjer (talk) 09:40, 31 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Thanks for agreeing with me; but wasn't it modified through this page? Timjer (talk) 19:49, 31 August 2023 (UTC)
