Voltarmeunt
Yeah i looked at that talk page and was about to say something about it but i could have just gotten myself into an edit war with her/him, isn't this sort of thing against the rules or something and completely wrong in a social point of view.--SalmanH 18:15, 24 June 2009 (UTC)

You may be right the sysops may not want an edit war but this isn't a wiki thing anymore it's gone a bit beyond that. Otherwise I think that we are allowed to remove his message.--SalmanH 18:31, 24 June 2009 (UTC)

Re: Yoruichi's Tattoo
Yeah, looking back on it, I probably shouldn't have removed it from the Trivia section, which is where it would go best. Anyway, you can put it back up, but it didn't originate from the episode; the episode actually got it off of a Manga bonus page that featured most of the Bleach female characters in swimsuits. So if you put it back up, include that part too, but it still should only be put in the Trivia section. Arrancar109 22:41, 17 July 2009 (UTC)

Help
Hey Tom do you mind if I ask you something, for one have you ever heard of samurai jack if so do you like it or not and if you do, would you be willing to help me out on that wiki because the only users there number to about five i think including me and they are barely if ever on that site there are about 11 articles on that wiki most of the stuff are copied directly off wikipedia and I am having a tough time building it up and fixing the existing articles, but if you're too busy or simply because you don't want to I understand and if you know anyone who you think would be interested let me know. Thanks.--SalmanH 15:05, 10 August 2009 (UTC)

Actually I'll take all the help I can get, but really it is up to you I can't make you help me but do you know anyone who could possibly be interested. Thanks.--SalmanH 15:45, 10 August 2009 (UTC)

RE:Significant Battles
I dont really have to much of an opinion on this after i read what was in the forum. It an interesting idea, and it may be very useful in the form of it's own page. I would suggest that you ask what arrancar109 thinks and ill go along with whatever he thinks best.Salubri 23:37, 30 August 2009 (UTC)

Re:Forums
Hi, thanks for letting me know about the changes going on here I think that I've been off the wiki for a couple or more weeks (been spending too much time here I suppose).--SalmanH 06:04, November 4, 2009 (UTC)

Re: Protected status
Yup. A page that is protected can be edited by admins, but nobody else. If we go ahead with the watch-list, which seems likely, then it will be protected so that only Admins can edit it. --Yyp 18:52, November 14, 2009 (UTC)

Sorry for the delay in replying. I missed your post while carrying out some other work and only noticed it now. In answer to your question, not as far as I know. I'm not sure how useful warning other wikis would be as any vandals can just use a different username if they're really determined and they typically do their damage with their first posts - so there's not much we can do to stop that. --Yyp 23:59, November 16, 2009 (UTC)

Anime Summaries
Hi there. I am Minato and I saw u'or question on the Project Page, which I answered. I also saw u'or edit on episode 44 and would like to thank u for u'or help. The 4th Hokage 16:15, November 18, 2009 (UTC)

Going ahead is fine. In regards of the links or redirects for Zanpakuto. It is the same with the other links. Just use with words in between. For now though u really don't have to worry about those, thats why i'm here. On episode 44 I have already fixed them & sometimes they can be alittle difficult & tricky to link. The 4th Hokage 16:31, November 18, 2009 (UTC)

Volume Summary Project
Hi Tom, its me Minato. I really appreciated u'or help with my project, but unfortunately I am now a little overstaffed and it has become hectic and chaotic for me. However Volume Summary Project is in need of some help. So I figured I'd ask u if, whenever u have some time, u wouldn't mind helping this project out. Thank U Minato88 02:25, November 20, 2009 (UTC)

Re:Episode 42
Yup I meant for it to be linked to the Zanpakutō article as I have already placed links for the respective Zanpakutōs mentioned later in the episode, have I made a mistake or something? Abigail16 19:36, November 24, 2009 (UTC)

Uploading Images/Renji
I did think about that shot, but initially dismissed it and forgotten about it. If I can get a better version of it, should I bring it up on the Talk Page? Arrancar109 00:06, November 30, 2009 (UTC)

I can do it. Arrancar109 00:22, November 30, 2009 (UTC)

Policy and Standards Committee
Hey Tomservo, u know me as Minato, the Fukutaicho of the Bleach Wiki:Policy & Standards Committee and I was curious if u might be interested in joining this group.

I have looked over u'or contributions and in accordance with the Qualifications of this Committee u are one of the Users here who is qualified for the job. Even if u do not know about this committee, it might be in u'or best interest to read the link I have given u. Here are a list of the responsibilities.


 * Regularly assist in the committee projects
 * Quality check the work of committee members and non-members who participate in committee projects
 * Quality check the recent edits to articles, especially articles identified as high risk
 * Quality check articles in general
 * Assist members with edits and other issues
 * Roll-back vandalism

The Admins are the ones who decide whether u are granted the rank of Lieutenant on this Wikia and the position of Fourth Seat on the committee. If u do qualify u will be given Rollback Rights. I have talked with Tinni about the Other Seats and she has informed me that only the first two seats have official projects assigned to them, at least for now. Whilest selecting the Third Seat, Salubri made it clear that there is more projects that need to be done, but they are not organized enough just yet.

If u would like this position, u could nominate uorself or let me know u would like to join and I will nominate u. Minato 20:52, December 2, 2009 (UTC)

OK I have nominated u. The Admins will discuss u'or nomination and will have an answer in a couple of days. I don't know why they wouldn't pass u, but good-luck and I look forward to working with u in the future. Minato 11:08, December 3, 2009 (UTC)

Re: Deleting Articles
Hi. I moved the page as according to ANN, that is the correct title. Moving a page does not leave a page behind under the old title, so there is nothing that requires deletion. I am aware that it is still appearing in the "newest articles" widget in the sidebar, but there is no actual page or content there to delete. In answer to your question, the delete page option is available only to Admins. You can, however, mark a page for deletion by adding to the top of the page. Let me know if you have any other questions. -- Yyp  (Talk)  14:40, December 9, 2009 (UTC)

Re: That Stunning C you blocked...
Thanks for letting me know. I only blocked him due to his username being inappropriate. There's nothing wrong with what he changed it to imo, so as far as I'm concerned, no action will be taken over the name. -- Yyp  (Talk)  11:33, December 30, 2009 (UTC)

The Committee
OK Tom, the admins have come to a decision. First, I feel I should tell u that due to edit history, count and free-time, Gold has been moved to promotion for the Fourth Seat, but the third seat and lower positions aren't considered ranks, just titles. Anyway, they couldn't decide via vote by u'or current contributions so they want to give u and u'or Committee Partner Gold An Initiation.

The task; U have to write a total of 8 Manga summaries or 5 Anime summaries from these two projects. The Volume Summary Project or the Anime Summary Project.

This is so the Admins can observe u'or edits and caliber. Good luck to u both. Minato (Talk)  19:23, December 16, 2009 (UTC)

Well, uhm... uh... I can't decide that, but I will ask Yyp. They were Renji Surprised?! The Two Zabimaru and Authentic Records! School of Shinigami right? Minato (Talk)  00:15, December 17, 2009 (UTC)

Well, I didn't get a straight answer, but I looked at u'or edits and while extremely good and in line with the rules, with epi 249 u didn't write the summary. So, in my decision, u can write 4 anime summaries or 6 Manga, it doesn't matter which. Minato (Talk)  01:07, December 17, 2009 (UTC)

Hey Tom, u can disregard what I said above. I kno u must be sick of wondering whats going on with the Committee and this must seem like a hassle. Ur last edits to the Anime Summaries were about the Zanpakuto Arc. Anyway u seem to be following that Arc so I am going to give u a list of Summaries I would like u to do.


 * Byakuya, Disappearing with the Cherry BlossomsFinished
 * Zangetsu Becomes an EnemyFinished
 * Senbonzakura's Bankai! Offense and Defense of the Living World
 * Dark History! The Worst Shinigami is Born U Don't need to do
 * Byakuya, the Truth Behind his BetrayalU already did, Finished

OK thats it. There is no time-limit on this, just whenever u can get to them. The Admins r letting me watch ur progress and I will be paying attention, so u do not have to worry about contacting me. Anyway, the sooner u finish this and if it looks good, I will personally contact the Admins and let them kno how u did. And thanks for ur patience. Minato (Talk)  14:53, January 4, 2010 (UTC)

Hey, just reminding u to make sure and proofread ur stuff. Theres a pretty obvious error in the first sentence and a couple of other grammar and one link error. After ur next edit on Byakuya Disappearing, I will fix any remaining errors, but I want to see if u can find them all. Minato (Talk)  16:40, January 4, 2010 (UTC)

LOL. :) Well, u still didn't get all of them. Heres a link . Anyway, I would still be neutral based on that edit, but I would like to see some better ones from the other three. Lets see what u can do. Minato  (Talk)  23:27, January 4, 2010 (UTC)

Well, according to Dictionary.com, Recognize is correctly romanized with a Z. It is commonly spelled in Britain, Recognise, however this spelling is generally looked upon as being incorrect romanization(is romanization a word LOL). Minato (Talk)  23:37, January 4, 2010 (UTC)

Hey just marking off one the ones for u to do as u have done a different one. Good Job. Minato (Talk)  13:04, January 6, 2010 (UTC)

Hey, I didn't get a chance to congratulates you so let me do that now. I will assume that you will keep helping out with the Anime summary project and have put a tag next to your name on the committee page saying that you are affiliated with the anime summary project. Have fun writing the anime summaries and working with fellow committee member and anime summary contributor SerialSniper14. Let me know if you run into any problems. Tinni  (Talk)  11:44, January 11, 2010 (UTC)

Policy & Standards Committee
As affirmed by the other Admin they agree with the nomination. You therefore have been made a lieutenant on the wiki and therefore now possess rollback rights (side note: please dont abuse it, otherwise the other admin will come down on your head with a wrath and take it away). Also you are now the 6th Seat of the Bleach Wiki:Policy & Standards Committee also reached through the community sidebar or just community page. Familiarize yourself with the additions on there as well as the Bleach Wiki:Policy and corresponding policies if you haven't already. so discussions are easier and have more room they can be had on the discussion page of the Policy & Standards Committee. Congrats. Salubri (Talk)  16:24, January 8, 2010 (UTC)

Congrats and Archiving
Well, congrats on ur promotion. U r now a Lieutenant on Bleach Wikia and u can now display the on ur userpage if u want. Just reminding u that Rollback rights r for undoing vandalism, threatening comments, spoilers, or anything inappropriate. If it doesn't fit in these categories, then the undo feature is what should be used. Also, please remember to regularly check the Committee Talkpage for updates and conversations with the rest of the Committee.

Also, as a Lieutenant u will probably need the Archive feature in the future. Instructions can be found here and if u have any questions about Archiving, about the Committee, or anything, feel free to ask me, Tinni, or Mohrpheus. Minato (Talk)  16:58, January 8, 2010 (UTC)

Re: Names
For the most part I've been only using their first names, unless it is their first appearance in the series or it sounds good for dramatic effect in a sentence. To me, the last names are usually superfluous since they will be noted anyway in the Character section, so lets stick with first names (except in cases where character go by last names like "Sado" and "Ukitake").

Also on that note, I'd like to go through all of the summaries and replace all the Japanese last name uses (like "Inoue" and "Ishida" and "Hitsugaya") and replace them with their first names, considering this is an english Wiki and no one here says "Inoue-san" when they think of Orihime. The thing to be careful of is to make sure the sentence structure still works. If you could help with this by fixing errors where you see them, that would be great. SerialSniper14 (Talk)  20:09, January 30, 2010 (UTC)

I'm back
Hey Tom. I'm finally back. Yyp told me u have been helping Serial with the Anime Summaries. I just wanted to say thanks for that. Minato (Talk)  00:27, March 24, 2010 (UTC)

RE: Rollback
Im somewhat confused what are you having an issue with.Salubri (Talk)  21:48, April 4, 2010 (UTC)

Ok well you would have to use it logically. You really don't need to use it unless alot of edits have been made by the same individual 2 times or more. Therefore you can just simply undue them. But ill help out when i can if you get it wrong.Salubri (Talk)  23:10, April 4, 2010 (UTC)

Hey, sorry to but in but I think I figured I would explain a few things about rollbacks. If you accidentally rollback something that you didn't want to, you can undo it yourself. As a the rollback action appears as a single edit that can be undone by anyone. I suggest you experiment using the rollback on your User page. That's what I did. Hit roll back and watch everything to back to how it was and then undo it and confirm for myself the capabilities of the rollback, how it works and how to undo it. Tinni  (Talk)  02:39, April 5, 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for that, guys and gals. Makes me feel a little better about using it. As it turns out, someone (I think Arrancar109) undid the edit in question. TomServo101 10:29, April 5, 2010 (UTC)

Yo
Hey I don't suppose you play Legends of Zork do you? SerialSniper14 (Talk)  00:44, April 8, 2010 (UTC)

Oh ok, it's a poor wannabe-MMORPG but I found a player named Tommy Servo and just thought it would be a pretty cool coincidence if it was you. SerialSniper14 (Talk)  19:35, April 8, 2010 (UTC)

Yeah, I've heard of MST3K but I just thought I would ask anyway. SerialSniper14 (Talk)  16:16, April 9, 2010 (UTC)

re: Featured article
Hey, Tom

I didn't know regular users could edit the featured article. I mean, you've got rollback but the template is actually open to anyone. I thought the way to edit the FA was through the main page. Now I know better.

PS, how long did it take for you to get Rollback once you applied? Weedefinition  (Talk)  06:10, April 15, 2010 (UTC)

RE: Stuff
I see your points, but I still think that, at the very least, those character pages need to be condensed. They don't have to go into every single line of dialogue of every conversation or cover every single movement of every combatant of every fight that character was ever involved in. Imrlybord7 23:44, June 20, 2010 (UTC)

New Committee member
I don't know if you saw it or not but WD  has put himself forward as a potential member of the committee. So it's time to exercise your vote to either him or  him. Please vote as soon as possible. Thanks. Tinni  (Talk)  09:23, July 2, 2010 (UTC)

Hey Tom, its me Minato. I kno what ur thinking, "Who?", but yes I am still indeed in the world of the living. Firstly, I wanted to say thanks for voting so fast on "Weeds" Nomination to the Committee. Anyway, I moved ur "Support" for him to the talk page, as it is meant to be discussed there. I'll make sure the others kno that the talkpage is where his promotion should be discussed. Thanks again. Minato (Talk)  19:40, July 2, 2010 (UTC)

Well, I keep wanting to try and get back on here on a more regular basis, but my life is also busy, and I keep getting sidetracked. I will try to do more then I have(which has been nothing), but I think I can try to get more done in this month then in the previous ones. Minato (Talk)  20:02, July 2, 2010 (UTC)

Image Policy
The Image Policy has changed and has new guidelines please read and become familiar with them as they now determine how pics and gifs will be handled on the site from now on. It is also important that you help others follow them. thank you.--Salubri (Talk)  11:42, July 9, 2010 (UTC)

Inactivity
Just wondering if there's a reason that your not on more regularly especially during the summer. If your not available or into the sight anymore that needs to be addressed as there is still alot of work to be done and being that your in a position of authority here and not really engaging on a regular basis only defeats the purpose of having the position. Salubri (Talk)  14:10, July 21, 2010 (UTC)

Well theres still many things to do on the sight. I haven't brought this issue up with various committee members to the other admin im just trying to see if theres gonna be some actual contribution or not in general the specifics on what you pick to do is not that important compared to whats not being done in general.--Salubri (Talk)  15:42, July 21, 2010 (UTC)

Hey Tom, I saw the message you left on Salubri's page. If you don't have a lot of time right now, how about helping out with the the article improvement project. The articles on the Karakura town humans, Keigo, Tatsuki, Mizuiro and others are badly in need to plot section update and referencing. You can do that slowly and in your own pace and with the Chapter summaries all written, you can just refer to the chapter articles to get the information you need to fill those sections. I am trying to work on Mizuiro's article but other things always get in the way and some of these other things, like making gifs, I can't delegate to other people. So I think that if time is short, you should focus on the the article improvement project, which does have a whole host of "odd jobs" that need to be done and isn't as time consuming in one hit as writing an anime summary. Tinni  (Talk)  05:48, July 22, 2010 (UTC)

LOL. I see u don't have much free time either. Bummer. I decided this would be the best place to leave this msg. Anyway, getting to the point, I am resigning from the Committee. I left a msg here explaining. See u latr Tom, its been fun. Minato (Talk)  16:20, July 23, 2010 (UTC)

Hey, with Minato  resigning with now have an empty fukutaicho spot. I have started a new discussion on the talk page on this matter and am open to input. Just to be clear on the duties of the fukutaicho, in the past Minato has been the one recruiting for the committee. He was also in charge of the Anime Summary project - which at the time was one of only two of our projects. He also communicated more regularly then me with the other members to address issues they might be having and to help them follow committee and wiki policies. So, in the past, it's primarily been a people position. However, the new fukutachio can redefine the position to their own taste and within reason. Tinni  (Talk)  03:17, July 24, 2010 (UTC)

Aizen
Thanks man, its always nice to have some help--God (Pray)  23:23, August 31, 2010 (UTC)

Inactivity
As a member of the committee your somewhat expected to contribute more. Whether its anime summaries, improving articles or other project. There is really no excuse if your active now we need losts of stuff done. If you cant then we need to reevaluate the position in the committee. We really need contribution if its a chore i can understand that.--Salubri (Talk)  19:20, September 15, 2010 (UTC)

Discussion on Wikia's New Look
Hi. I was hoping that you could take a look at User blog:Yyp/New Wikia Skin:What we can expect? and give some feedback when you have a chance. I'd like to gather as much input & thoughts on this change as possible so that I can present it to wikia (if you don't want something passed on to them, its not a problem). It would be great if you could post on your general impressions or specific things that you like/dislike or any suggestions etc. Thanks for your input, 11:46, September 26, 2010 (UTC)

Stray userboxes
So, while looking through some categories, I've realized that alot of former Committee members (including yourself) actually still show up in the Rollback Users category due to the userboxes. Because I don't particularly enjoy editing other people's userpages unless completely necessary, I hope it's not too much to ask for you to remove the non-applicable userboxes from your page. Thanks in advance,
