Just one problem

http://zeldawiki.org/Category:Enemies_in_The_Legend_of_Zelda:_Phantom_Hourglass Click that, you'll see your name is now categorized in every category used on this rewrite. :S But I'll see what we can do to kill the categorizations of userpages by wiki media scripting so that users can do something like this on their own page.

I would have finished it up then and there, but I was called away abruptly and this was the first and easiest option that popped into my head. I'll just finish it up on the actual page now. It was never meant to stay here, not by a long shot. --Ionizer (t c) 03:38, 16 August 2009 (UTC)Reply[reply]
No problem. I understand it wasn't intentional. It's happened before as well. The Sandbox won't categorize anything and is a good place for test edits.Axiomist (talk) 07:17, 16 August 2009 (UTC)Reply[reply]


To Do

Hi there. Please don't do your "To Do"! The templates have been blanked for a very good reason, to make it unnecessary for any poor soul(s) to suffer the tedium of removing them all. It's not a perfect solution, but it's one which achieves the required outcome with no manual editing. And let's face it, nobody wants to see over 2000 images edited for absolutely no visible benefit or change! However, a far more necessary and valuable task is Special:UncategorizedFiles; many files here need to have the {{Copyright}} template added (basically, all game or game-related content). The exclusions from that are fanart, website screenshots and and other random user-related stuff. Don't feel obliged to do huge amounts of it, but if you wanted to do a little productive image editing, that'd be super :) Adam [ talk ] 07:44, 22 August 2009 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Heh. I was actually hoping someone would come along and tell me to stop. If I get bored again, I will try that other thing you mentioned. Thanks for letting me off the hook. (Note to Self: Check exactly what a task entails and how large an undertaking it is before attempting it.) I'll go do something productive now. --Ionizer (t c) 21:00, 22 August 2009 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Ugh...now I'm really confused. Axiomist posted something and then deleted it while I was replying to it. I still don't know what "autopatrol rights" are and I'm not sure if I did anything wrong. I'm sorry. I'll stop doing whatever I did wrong, if you'll only tell me what it was in first place. --Ionizer (t c) 23:39, 22 August 2009 (UTC)Reply[reply]

No problem, I was gonna see if we could get you autopatrolled before undertaking it. But it'd be at least tomorrow before I could ask Adam. So if you want to do the image thing go ahead. You did nothing wrong. Autopatrolled means we won't need to load the page, work behind you and confirm each and every change. In the meantime, If you'd like to work on it, feel free to. I'm going to talk with the rest of the staff to smooth out our part. Axiomist (talk) 23:44, 22 August 2009 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Okay, you've been temporally promoted to autopatrol (autopatrol simply means we won't have to patrol all the image work you're doing). So, instead of spending time patrolling the work you do, we can actually help you out until you're finished :PMandi Talk 00:15, 23 August 2009 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Okay. Well, I don't plan on submitting any images (I'm not really an artist), so anything I do would be minor adjustments like fixing up the templates or descriptions. I'll work on it little by little, I guess. --Ionizer (t c) 00:27, 23 August 2009 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Oh, I didn't mean image uploads, I was talking about what you're doing with the {{copyright}} tags.Mandi Talk 00:33, 23 August 2009 (UTC)Reply[reply]

I know, I was just kinda saying I wouldn't abuse whatever you gave me. Anyway, any image I find that I'm not sure about, I'll leave it as is. It's easier for someone to come in after me and add the tag to something I missed than for someone to search through everything to find one I tagged by accident. --Ionizer (t c) 00:43, 23 August 2009 (UTC)Reply[reply]
We're fairly confident you won't abuse it. When you want to put this task down and work on other things, mention so in my, mandi, or any other Admins talk page and we'll toggle it off to keep an eye on article changes. There's also the {{Fan art}} template. Self explanatory, I think. Axiomist (talk) 00:58, 23 August 2009 (UTC)Reply[reply]
