Vandal gone
Hey, just wanted to let you know I've perma'd the vandal you were dealing with earlier. No more second chances. Thanks for staying on top of that, sorry you had to deal with it.--Xilinoc (talk) 01:56, 20 March 2022 (UTC)

Re:Edit warring
Second edit was mistakes and accident...but before that tell me why my edits are been undo it?Yon Bonyis‎‎ (talk) 19:57, 21 March 2022 (UTC)

Images
Hey listen I am not trying to make things harder for anyone. The initial upload was of poor quality and was cropped off, so it did not show the full image in the scene. If it is necessary I will upload them as new images, and ask that you replace them in discussions. I had wished to talk to someone regarding these issues but most administrators had locked their talk-pages so I was unable to bring the subject up.--Tuxedo12 (talk) 20:18, 19 May 2022 (UTC)

Resurrecion
Hi, I Am Very Sorry For the Misinformation that i Edited. I Will Pay Attention To What i write Next Time. Thank You,Ann

Absence
Hey Timjer, hope you're doing well. You've probably noticed that I've been pretty inactive aside from sporadic edits for the past 2 months or so, and I wanted to explain why that is. Haven't abandoned the wiki or anything like that (my dang summary project's not even halfway done!) - rather, I've been driving myself completely insane writing up these guides for Bleach: Soul Resurrección ahead of the anime's return, under the assumption that people might want to play it with the renewed interest in the series and as a way to promote the wiki itself for interested readers (primarily in the second one). It took me many, many, many hours but I'm finally done with all that and ready to pick up where I left off here; this is mainly to let you know that I'm once again fully available for anything you need help with, images/corrections/grammar/etc. Just say the word. Cheers!--Xilinoc (talk) 04:27, 23 May 2022 (UTC)


 * Nah man, don't worry about it - far as I'm concerned, you've been doing great maintenance work recently, and I fully understand your desire to avoid burnout (was doing the same last year by pausing between summary "binges" for other activities like gaming). So you're totally fine there, very glad we'll have you around when the anime debuts and wiki activity kicks into high gear.--Xilinoc (talk) 17:28, 23 May 2022 (UTC)

Re: Colored Images request - again
Sure, no problem. Starrk's is uploaded, Ulquiorra's will come soon since that's literally the next volume I'm doing. As for Zommari and Szayelaporro, I don't know if they ever show their tattoo on-screen, but I'll definitely be uploading more profile alternatives for them as I continue with the summary project if that's what you mean.--Xilinoc (talk) 04:37, 30 May 2022 (UTC)

Zangetsu profile pic arguments
So I like the current image I don't feel it needs to be changed but I mentioned Ukitake because it wouldn't hurt to have his manga appearance in the appearance section instead of replacing his profile image as an alternative. It makes it appear more professional I looked at other fandom sites at how they basically do this. As an alternative we could just keep it as is and just adopt a similar style to other wikia, though this is just a suggestion.--Tuxedo12 (talk) 21:42, 7 June 2022 (UTC)

Re: Colored covers reverting
Hey, I did figure that since they looked to be character-centric covers for the Espada rather than random ones, so I totally get it - I just want to ensure some viewing consistency, hence the revert reason for that first one. But as for your other uploads, you're totally in the clear and in fact encouraged there, haha - I was wondering if you'd ever come across the colored manga yourself on some scan site or another to start replacing the anime images that didn't quite do the manga justice yourself, and you clearly have, which you're more than welcome to do for the sake of improving the quality of the wiki since my project/editing is currently on a sort of downturn.

See, I realized after I finished volume 32 that, while I hadn't hit absolutely everything on the wiki as I'd naively hoped to do before the anime finally came back, I had fixed up and/or brought up to par the section(s) of the wiki that needed it most: basically, everything covered by episodes 1-167 of the anime leading up to and including Grimmjow's defeat, as that chapter is around when the wiki was founded, such that everything that came out after it got plenty of attention and detail on pages as chapters/episodes released weekly while everything that came before kinda languished with only partial work being done in a scattershot manner across the years, especially when it came to stuff like Ichigo Kurosaki vs. Grand Fisher where we just used censored and inaccurate anime images/scenes in place of the canon content and no one noticed.

So now that I've covered all that (particularly the Bount arc, which was the only of the four filler arcs to remain horrendously outdated presentation- and content-wise) and know that I've done work on basically everything that follows it, even if not always to the level of a complete overhaul, I'm not quite as on the ball and sprinting toward the finish line when it comes to my summary project; I'm not stopping by any means and in fact have the first episode of the Amagai arc all re-written up with images ready to go (just waiting for a good time to publish that), but I'm definitely slowing down my output due to a combination of both that motivation change and my new job tiring me out/giving me a lot less free time than I had during the pandemic...which also means the remainder of the Arrancar arc stuff that you've been working on image updates/replacements for won't be hit by me anytime soon. As such, this is a long-winded way of saying you have my full blessing to go about replacing those black-and-white images of pivotal moments with colored ones as you see fit, though I'd still suggest leaving the covers alone for now, because they definitely work better for the articles than anime stills do 99% of the time and I fully trust you to make the right calls on what should go where, what colors and aspect ratios work best, etc. etc. And I fully appreciate you offering to lighten the load for me, because I sure don't get paid enough (or at all) by FANDOM to do every single thing on my own. So thank you, man.--Xilinoc (talk) 04:43, 9 July 2022 (UTC)


 * Yeah, I learned that from going alllllllllll the way back to the original version of Nnoitra's page (Christ, we've come a long way since then), where the latest info was from around what would later be put in volume 33, and when I did the disparity of info/quality on certain article totally clicked into place, haha. But that's finally settled to the point where, short of those Japan-only games that we've historically struggled to get info on, a reader can go to just about any page on this wiki and be properly informed by it now, which I feel is a good enough midpoint to hit.


 * And don't worry, I've got no intention of leaving you guys anytime soon, especially not in or around October - in fact, I'm gonna see if I can get a day off moved to Tuesday or whatever the airdate of the new episodes is specifically to help tackle each one on release date - it's just that my output is gonna slow down as I balance editing with work, other hobbies, and all that other "real life" stuff. But I'll always be around to help, I promise you that!--Xilinoc (talk) 15:44, 9 July 2022 (UTC)

Re: Klub Q&A "controversy"
Oh sure, I can mock something up tomorrow, probably as a blog post (god I wish we still had the forum threads, that would be SO much easier to use). Thanks for bringing this to my attention + sorry that we didn't do something sooner, I didn't realize it would be a CFYOW pt. 2 in terms of reader reactions.--Xilinoc (talk) 05:17, 3 August 2022 (UTC)


 * Decided to do it tonight instead, here ya go.--Xilinoc (talk) 05:42, 3 August 2022 (UTC)

HQ Screenshots
Sure I have no problem with that requests, to be honest I was going to get around to episode 284 screenshots anyway, and I definitely will get some of the Guardian of the Menos Forest. I am hoping to finish uploading the (Arrancar: Downfall arc) to the The Lost Substitute Arc before the Thousand Blood War Arc Starts.Tuxedo12 (talk) 16:03, 16 August 2022 (UTC)

Thanks for the help
Hey, just wanted to say thanks for helping with the gallery filling, really saved me a lot of time (and god knows I don't have much of that anymore, as you probably guessed from my spaced-out additions for volume 34 this past week). Really appreciate it.--Xilinoc (talk) 19:45, 30 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Eh, it's alright, there's a lot of them lol.--Xilinoc (talk) 18:52, 31 August 2022 (UTC)

Shihakusho
Great work on the Shihakushō page, dude! Long overdue to get its own page, and now it'll be that much easier to type out since I can use autofill, haha. Well done.--Xilinoc (talk) 17:17, 8 September 2022 (UTC)

Locked Images
Hey there are some images I noticed that are poor quality, but are locked so they can't be replaced. that Would you possibly unlock it so a higher quality version can be uploaded. Also I haven't given up on the Guardian Forest profile I am planning to get around to that. Tuxedo12 (talk) 22:45, 20 September 2022 (UTC)

Here are some image that need to be unlocked:

Re: Lack of work
That's entirely okay, dude! I'm working on the episode summary right now and will be uploading as many images as I can before leaving for work, so hopefully that'll give you something to work with until D+ sorts itself.--Xilinoc (talk) 18:24, 10 October 2022 (UTC)

Sorry about the "The Bloud Warfare" episode creation.
I just wanted to make a page for The Blood Warfare that people can edit, then move it to The Blood Warfare, so people could edit The Blood Warfare. I'm sorry for creating it. SaidaiGendo (tawk) (I like amo ngus) 18:37, 10 October 2022 (UTC)

Game plan going forward
Hey there. So I realized in hindsight that my editing behavior this morning/afternoon probably seemed kinda weird without context, since I didn't really explain what I was doing to anyone in advance, so I wanted to lay it out for you since you're a fellow mod and the most active/prolific contributor after me and will thus be in the trenches alongside me on these hallowed Bleach Mondays.

Basically, here's my game plan:
 * 1) Whenever we make a new episode page, lock/protect it immediately. This is done so that, leading up to and on the day of the episode premiere, we don't have 50 different people all trying to edit over each other to add a single detail at a time.
 * 2) When the newest episode premieres, I'm gonna fill out all the sections at once. I'll probably miss a few details and am open to correction on stuff after the fact (as demonstrated today with Chojiro's Bankai), but this is me ensuring everything on there is well-written, detailed, accurate, and filled-out as possible. During this time, if you want to upload images (assuming D+ doesn't continue to screw up for international viewers for all subsequent episodes), you're more than welcome to and I'll happily use pertinent ones in the summary.
 * 3) Then, and only then, we unlock the page and make editing it accessible to everyone. I'll be at work for 9 hours after this point and will do anything remaining when I get home as best I can, but I have full confidence you can moderate and improve pages during the slew of editing that's sure to follow.

Normally I wouldn't lay out such restrictive measures (we certainly didn't/don't for new chapters), but given the sheer hype and activity surrounding the anime's return and all the new people it's gonna be bringing here, I figured it's better to be safe than sorry - the last thing we need is a cubic buttload of edit conflicts when we're just trying to fill out summaries. Let me know if this works for you, if there are any alterations you'd suggest, or if I've finally cracked and gone full authoritarian.--Xilinoc (talk) 05:51, 11 October 2022 (UTC)

Re: Moving positions of quotes and page tabs
It never occurred to me, but I don't think it was ever set in stone as a policy - just how the first quote was put up and then what all subsequent ones followed the example of. I do like having the wider template be at the top of the page to "encompass" it, however, and doing some tests on Jin Kariya's page (since it also has one of the canon notices), I found that it helps visually to have a buffer zone between those two templates and the actual opening paragraph + the character template on the right side, since flipping it around kinda crams it all together. So personally I'm in favor of just keeping it as is.--Xilinoc (talk) 17:36, 12 October 2022 (UTC)

Hiyori Edit
Hello Timjer. Just to make sure I've understand what you're saying underneath Hiyori's article, is it due to me wording my descriptions reasoning "Due to Discussion from Discord", or the actual references itself in said article? If the latter, what is it exactly I'm doing wrong since I follow the format from other references I see? Or by chance did I duplicated the reference and not reused the same one? Let me know so I can prevent it from happening again. Thanks. Xeno Gotenks [10/16/22 at 1:00 AM EST]

Thanks for the explanation. I'll keep that in mind going forward. When making references previously, I was going by what I saw and even in Source Editing I didn't see that for many references. Xeno Gotenks [10/17/22 at 9:44 PM EST]
