Male/Female

No need to create this. I created Char2 to fix the problem. See Teletubbies for an example. ~ Phinbart (talk • contribs) 13:32, 3 May 2012 (EDT)

Blog:Episode framegrabs or promo images in the infobox

Since episode framegrabs got the most votes on Blog:Episode framegrabs or promo images in the infobox, should we change infobox images to framegrabs? ~ Phinbart (talk • contribs) 14:11, 3 May 2012 (EDT)

Regrettably, probably. |

Another independent wiki

There is another independent wiki started by some unknown user **cough cough me cough**. Defiance Wiki for the tv and game series, wikia is not going to get the upper hand here! Escyos 12:45, 4 May 2012 (EDT)

Capitalization topic

I actually might be able to get on for the editor meeting today, but I wanted to make sure I had a "HELL NO!!!" on record as regarding capitalizing any of the words on that list when they occur in titles (except when they're the first word). Every style guide I've ever seen takes that approach for articles and prepositions: When they occur in a title, you only capitalize them if they're the first word of the title. My $.02 worth; hope to see you at the meeting. -- Mythigator 09:58, 5 May 2012 (EDT)

Some of those words are generally capitalized (Is for instance, Wikipedia capitalizes it). Most I agree with though. I'll be sure to pass on your thoughts if you don't make it though. ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 10:01, 5 May 2012 (EDT)

"Is" and "Are" would be capitalized in titles because they're verbs. I didn't notice them on the list. -- Mythigator 10:35, 5 May 2012 (EDT)

Delete

Why did you delete User:Phinbart/Fade in and out ? ~ Phinbart (talk • contribs) 11:04, 7 May 2012 (EDT)

Because it isn't notable, there are hundreds of scenes that fade in and out, at least one every episode and we just don't need a page like that. Solar Dragon ^{(Talk • Contribs.)} 11:06, 7 May 2012 (EDT)

Oh, right. I've only scenes fade in and out in two episodes. ~ Phinbart (talk • contribs) 11:08, 7 May 2012 (EDT)

No, many episodes have scenes that fade out. The Solar Dragon ^{(Talk - Contribs.)} 11:09, 7 May 2012 (EDT)

Wordless stories and Quotes tabs

Got a question/idea and I wanted to see what you thought about it. For wordless stories (for example, a lot of the ones by Sergio Aragonés), there won't be any quotes to put in. However, the Quotes redlinks for those stories are bothersome and look sloppy. What do you think about putting a note on these stories' Quotes tabs, along the lines of "This is a wordless story; as such, it has no quotations."? That way we don't have the redlinks just sitting there, giving the impression that there's supposed to be something under the tab and that we haven't bothered to put it in yet. -- Mythigator 09:23, 9 May 2012 (EDT)

Instead of doing that, I'll add in a parameter to the tabs to exclude the quotes tab by putting "|quotes=no" or something similar. ☆The Solar Dragon ^{(Talk - Contribs.)}☆ 09:25, 9 May 2012 (EDT)

Excluding the Quotes tabs completely is probably a better solution, but I wasn't sure how feasible it would be. Well, best of luck with the tweak and thanks for yout thoughts. -- Mythigator 09:28, 9 May 2012 (EDT)
