User Trouble
Mind stepping in here. This user believes he can add whatever he wants to the articles and that we have no right to remove it no matter what--God (Pray)  02:04, September 12, 2010 (UTC)

Request
Hey, sorry If I'm bothering you. But I was wondering if you could explain to me how you hide a section of an article on wiki's. Everyone I've asked has either outright ignored me, or simply don't know themselves and I don't know where to begin to try myself. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks a bunch, man. Out of six people, you're the only one's who's replied. Thanks a lot! My friend and I couldn't figure it out for the life of us. Kenji Hiroshi (talk) 17:05, September 12, 2010 (UTC)

Yo Bro
Can you check my edit on Hogyoku's History section, added that Aizen too had created his own Hogyoku, it didnt appears, or is it wrongly done?Soulreaper1234 (talk) 11:44, September 13, 2010 (UTC)

New Page Idea
Hello, I just wanted your opinion on whether or not I could/should start a page for the High-Speed Regeneration that Hollows have. A large number of characters and Hollows have used it, and the manga has given us a lot of information regarding its weaknesses, strengths, etc (as explained by Ryuken and Ulquiorra). A lot of this info is already on the wiki, but it is spread all over the place; the idea for the article would be to make it easily accessible, with maybe even a gif or two demonstrating the ability. We have way more information about the power than we do for Bala or Gonzui, so I think it could merit its own article. Mohrpheus (talk) 13:15, September 15, 2010 (UTC)

Re: Templates
I added a Romanji parameter. Sorry, I didn't know it was off limits. Shall I undo it or do you approve? WD  Talk to me  16:31, September 15, 2010 (UTC)

PS. I'm trying to make an infobox template for dolls, is that OK? WD  Talk to me  16:33, September 15, 2010 (UTC)

The romanji parameter did appear in Ichigo's page, but I'll undo the changes because of the spacing problem. As for the dolls, isn't there a way to have the vacant brackets invisible? I know it's used in some of the character infoboxes. I used the Zanpakutō template for Dalk as a pilot on Gō Koga's page. It looks fine to me. WD  Talk to me  16:54, September 15, 2010 (UTC)

Re:Inactivity
Yeah I'm done with it at least for now, sorry about not saying anything. It's just that I'd rather focus on the Anime Summaries right now since it needs a lot of work done with it, and then maybe in the future if I find enough time I'll help out more with the fight summaries. Once again, sorry about this. TheDevilHand888 (talk) 19:49, September 15, 2010 (UTC)

Question about Arrancar powers.
Hey Salubri I have a question for you, being an admin maybe you can clear this up. I noticed all the Arrancars that are Hand-to-Hand combatants, Sword Experts, etc... Are not listed in the Zanjutsu and Hakuda sections respectively. Is this done on purpose for a certain reason. Or, has no one thought to add the Arrancar, I just wanted to clear it up. Thanks. Ltjuno (talk) 19:57, September 15, 2010 (UTC)

I guess Arrancar109 made his position clear on it already. So I guess they are not to be added. Ltjuno (talk) 19:59, September 15, 2010 (UTC)

Re:Inactivity
I guess I'm going through a bit of a rough patch; never in a mood to do anything at all. So yes, I've changed my stance from last time we spoke; I think it's probably best if I stepped down.

For what it's worth, may I suggest Godisme as a possible replacement. Thanks. TomServo101 (Talk)  21:50, September 15, 2010 (UTC)

Re:New wiki stuff
No disrespect intended to any of them, and I feel kinda bad saying this, but if someone is not contributing to the wiki, then I don't think that there is much point in them being an admin and so they should probably not continue to be an admin. They effectively are not an admin atm anyway due to their inactivity and thus the wiki is not going to suffer if their admin status is removed. The wiki is certainly not benefiting from it right now. If they ever return, they will have to reacquaint themselves with the site and policies which will take time, especially if they return after Wikia's New Look is implemented. We can review their case then, but in the meantime, well, times move on.

However, I think that if their admin status is removed, we should consider creating a section for them on the admin page listing them as former admins to acknowledge their past contribution to the wiki.

Tinni is the obvious candidate for a new admin and I would fully support her as an admin if she agrees to become one. We all know the work and dedication she has put in to this wiki, she is fully familiar with the policies and very helpful to other users, has good ideas and is good with the technical side of things. Unlike the recent flurry of user's asking to be admin in the mistaken believe that it will help them to edit, Tinni would actually benefit from the access to admin privileges and use them well. On top of that, with the New Look on the horizon, I think a fourth active admin would be quite good in case there are problems.

I have seen a number of people recently applying to be an admin saying that it will help them to make edits etc (see the request to be admin page and Forum:How to become an administrator). There seems to be a misconception out there that being an admin makes editing easier, with people not understanding that their edits are undone because they are poorly done, flat out wrong or against policy.

I also support Godisme for the Committee. He meets the requirements and would be good for the committee, imo. Looking at the discussion that was held over who should be the new number two on the committee to replace Minato88, I just hope that there is not so much trouble getting someone to be the new committee leader as there was then.

As sidenote, I started doing the beta testing for the wiki's New Look over the last two days. This basically involves editing as normal, while using the new look. So if you see any odd things in my edits, let me know so that I can fix them and report the problem to Wikia. You'll also see me making some edits at MediaWiki:Wikia.css. This is purely for the new look and will not affect anything related to the way the site is currently. I'm not allowed to say much about the new look other than what has been announced on Central Wiki, but my impressions are that presentation-wise it is a nice clean look, but there is much less space due to the fixed width, huge navigation bar at the top and fat sidebar on the right. There is a new blog post on central about the themes for the New Look. Going by that, the fixed width is there to stay and the empty space to the sides will be part of the theme/design and will be (relatively) easy to customize. Unfortunately I actually don't know anything more than that about it as they are not testing that bit yet. But I'm keeping an eye out for the hacks and mods that other users make to it for their own sites to get around things they don't like. I'll post about them if they're an issue for us here. There are already a couple of those popping up. 15:15, September 16, 2010 (UTC)


 * Will do and I'm definitely in favour of a theme more relevant to Bleach. Most pages are holding up fine with the new layout so far despite the huge change. The main page is perfectly fine in the new look, bar the poll template continuing out too far to the right, but that seems to be an issue on Wikia's side rather than ours. That's probably about all I can get away with saying about it right now. 15:36, September 16, 2010 (UTC)

I don't feel I have to say all of the reasons, since Yyp said it already, but I'm in full support of Tinni becoming an administrator and Godisme being in the Committee.

I also like Yyp's idea of putting up a section of former administrators on the page, as I feel they each did some important contributions to the Wiki. I'm thinking we should probably close off the "Requests for Adminship" page, due to too many misconceptions. Obviously Yyp explained that part too, and I'm kind of getting tired people applying to be administrators just because their edits are undone, they're not reading the policies, or because they just hate the policies we have set up. Whether we get rid of the page itself is altogether, but I think we should at least close it off for now (and have it closed off indefinitely; I still see people trying to apply for adminship for these reasons after the theoretical reopening date comes).

As for the site design... Just go with whatever you want. I admit we need a new look, but I haven't been able to keep up enough with any sort of changes you had in mind since you pitched the idea on the Admin Talk page, which is why I haven't said much about it in the past. If there's something I missed afterwards, then please fill me in on the details I missed. Also, if you think our Favicon needs changing (the icon that shows up next the web address when on this site/the icon that shows up on your browser when the site is opened in a tab), let me know what you guys come up with, as I've been wondering about that part myself without copying either the Spanish Bleach Wiki or the German Bleach Wiki's Favicons.

Yes I saw the resignation and as for SerielSniper, he hasn't edited his other wiki since July the last I checked. So I think that's a case of RL getting in the way too. I am happy for SerielSniper to be dropped but with only Godisme as a replacement candidate, I think it is best to leave Nwang2011 alone. Nwang2011 has been very upfront about his commitments. He explained that he was going to be starting his 1st year of college in August, during the fukutaicho discussion and its just September. Which means that he's just getting used to college life and figuring out how to balance things. We should give him more time to adjust to his new life as a college student and if he still can't make time then we can think about it.


 * As for myself becoming an admin... umm... well, the things is that last monday I was offered a job in the UK. I currently live is Australia and have to relocate to the UK by 1st of November. Right now, nothing's going to change as nothing I have to do between now and end of October is going to impact much on how much I can edit the wiki. However, all things going smoothly (I don't even have the required Visa yet), I have no idea where I am going to even live come November. Plus new job in a foreign country... I guess what I am saying is that its not that I don't want to become an admin. But I think its best that I don't become an admin until November/December. I mean, if you have someone who can start immediately then go right ahead and promote them. But I am not comfortable saying yes to being an admin now when I might have to even resign my post as Taicho of the committee come November/December because my new job and just general life in the UK leave me no time for anything.
