I've just been lazy, by the time I see most episodes, people have already updated the pages. If I happen to see something that hasn't been updated, I simply update it =P Myzou (talk) 21:56, 1 October 2008 (UTC)

So your saying you just contribute when you feel like it?. Mythdon (talk) 04:33, 2 October 2008 (UTC)

No, I contribute when I have something to contribute. I live on the west coast. By the time I watch episodes, typically users from the East Coast have already updated it. When an episode airs early/is captured by a user on a forum early, I can typically help by updating with new info. Myzou (talk) 03:19, 20 January 2009 (UTC)

What did I tell you about inappropriate questions?—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 06:40, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

Are you telling me I broke the talk page guideline?. Mythdon (talk) 06:49, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

Um... there aren't any particular feelings I experience, I guess. Wikipedia hasn't ever evoked any significant emotions in me. May I ask why you ask? Master of Puppets _{Call me MoP! :)} 06:40, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

I was just curious. Mythdon (talk) 06:49, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

Your welcome. Also, earlier I reported the IP user and that the IP has been blocked with an expiry time of 24 hours. Mythdon (talk • contribs) 08:16, 10 October 2008 (UTC)

This "attack" was not intended to be an attack. See, I have Asperger Syndrome, diagnosed by a doctor and everything, which makes it medically difficult to anticipate the consequences of my words and actions. Now, per the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, Wikipedia must accomodate this or risk being sued for millions of dollars. Despite the fact that the Aspergers article on Wikipedia claims it's not a true disability, the federal government recognizes it as such. Trust me, if I wanted to attack him, I'd say something like "You have no idea what the hell you're talking about, moron."

If my Aspergers kicked in in that paragraph, I once again apologize. I'm just giving pure facts, regardless of how cold or blunt they may be.Dstebbins (talk) 14:47, 10 October 2008 (UTC)

How about this: Is there a wiki site that is devoted to fictional lore? If it makes you happy, I'll put my section about the Morphing Grid on that site.Dstebbins (talk) 14:46, 10 October 2008 (UTC)

Hello I have proposed that WP:Sims to be moved to a task force in WP:VG under there Inactive project cleanup Task force. Since WP:Sims has been tagged inactive. There is a discussion on it, here.Hereford 17:03, 18 October 2008 (UTC)

Are you just on a personal mission to delete every single power rangers article except the most basic core ones because you simply don't like the Power Rangers? You deleted my edit about Aurico being second in command simply because the "previous statement was good."

Listen, if you continue to vandalize the Power Rangers articles, I'm going to contact an admin and ask for you to be blocked. You're nothing but a troll. Yes, I did just go there. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Dstebbins (talk • contribs) 22:39, 18 October 2008 (UTC)

Yes, that was how I became aware of the situation, but I subsequently read through the block log and the user's contributions. ffm 20:18, 19 October 2008 (UTC)

That tells me that I called the attention to his disruption. I'm not surprised that my alert about Dstebbins made you aware of the situation. Thank you for the response. —Mythdon (talk • contribs) 23:05, 19 October 2008 (UTC)

When I said there is no SVG version, I meant the company did not have a SVG version of their Hardee's logo. It has nothing to do with my web browser. —Mythdon (talk • contribs) 23:31, 27 October 2008 (UTC)

Exactly. I had retraced the image from the PNG, and there are mistakes in the Brazier curves if you look really closely (no retrace is perfect! ). I know there is no publicly-available SVG-logo, but there is an SVG version here. Thanks, Jonathan (talk • contribs • am I wrong?) 12:51, 28 October 2008 (UTC)

Why is the PNG version such an issue? If it is an issue. —Mythdon (talk • contribs) 17:42, 28 October 2008 (UTC)

PNG's are less efficient in the servers. The file size was reduced by 9KB. Not much, but it's a good thing if someone just happens to refresh the SVG's description page 50,000 times (almost humanly impossible, someone would probably use a bot) with no caching. If you do the math, that saves 450,000 KB (439.45 MB) of bandwidth. A file of that size would take about six hours to download on a good day for me. That keeps Wikipedia fast and in good working order. See what I mean? Jonathan (talk • contribs • am I wrong?) 22:30, 1 November 2008 (UTC)

I see your trying to save bandwidth, but I strongly encourage you to keep the image as a PNG, because altering an image destroys the truthfulness and reliability of the image. I disagree with the SVG version, because, like I said, altering an image destroys the truthfulness and reliability of the image. I wish for the PNG version to stay. —Mythdon (talk • contribs) 22:47, 1 November 2008 (UTC)

Also, the non-beveled logo is used on soda cups and some indoor signage, I assume for printing reasons. If we did the bevel effects, the SVG file would be HUGE due to blur effects that MediaWiki doesn't really like anyways. I wish for the SVG version to stay. The New Phobia (formerly Jonathan) 01:23, 2 November 2008 (UTC)

Forgot one thing: we can get someone from the outside of this to choose which one...like an admin not related to this. It would be kind of like a mini-mini-RfC. Involving one person. Are you okay with it if I choose one out of random and contact them? I won't do it until you give a green light, though. :-) The New Phobia (formerly Jonathan) 01:30, 2 November 2008 (UTC)

Okay. Out of this group, I scrolled up and down blindly and ultimately ended up with Emperor. I have contacted him and created a system for !voting. Whoever gets 2 votes obviously has the !win. I ask that you make a statement from your POV to make an equal request. Thanks! The New Phobia (formerly Jonathan) 03:12, 2 November 2008 (UTC)

I don't know what your problem today was, but I've rolled back every single instance where you removed every image from a page. This was highly unnecessary, as each image should have a fair use rationale for the article it is being used in, and in many places, you removed the only image from an article. If you do this again, you will be blocked.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 23:48, 30 November 2008 (UTC)

I don't think we should be using excessive images, because sometimes you can use images too much. I don't care how many images are on the articles, as long as it is excessive use of images, it is too much. —Mythdon (talk • contribs) 23:58, 30 November 2008 (UTC)

Since when did you become so focused on image usage?—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 00:03, 1 December 2008 (UTC)

There is a such thing as using images too much. Should we have 45 images on a single article? Should we have 5 images of Homer Simpson specifically dedicated to him? Wikipedia is not an image gallery. —Mythdon (talk • contribs) 00:07, 1 December 2008 (UTC)

You are using massive extremes here and completely wrong analogies, as usual.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 02:46, 1 December 2008 (UTC)

How?. —Mythdon (talk • contribs) 17:53, 1 December 2008 (UTC)

The items you are tagging are so blatantly true that they do not need to be referenced whatsoever. Various items you are requesting a citation for are information from the primary source (the show itself) or can be inferred by anyone reading later text on the page.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 22:22, 7 December 2008 (UTC)

If the content is not sourced, then what's stopping the {{fact}} tags from being useful?. The tag is necessary for unsourced content. I also undid one of your reverts. —Mythdon (talk • contribs) 22:29, 7 December 2008 (UTC)

Some statements are taken for granted as being true with or without a source. The fact that there is a Power Rangers: RPM and that the one picture of it we have prior to its naming is that of Go-on Red would mean that the two are related. You are tagging things that are taken for granted. That's like requesting a {{fact}} for "The sky is blue."—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 22:34, 7 December 2008 (UTC)

"That's like requesting a {{fact}} for 'The sky is blue.'" - No, that is blatantly wrong. Tagging information that says "There is a Power Rangers: RPM" is not nearly as blatant as "The sky is blue". Also, information on Wikipedia should be either sourced or they will be either tagged or removed. That's the bottom line. —Mythdon (talk • contribs) 22:44, 7 December 2008 (UTC)

You are misinterpreting policy yet again. You don't need to reference every single statement. And some items that aren't referenced can be supported in other ways.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 22:48, 7 December 2008 (UTC)

Ryulong, you said "You don't need to reference every single statement". Show me a policy and/or guideline that says this, if any say so. Also, you seem to be interested in mostly sourcing future things and mostly ignoring sourcing for past subjects. Wikipedia just can't have articles that do not adhere to WP:V. —Mythdon (talk • contribs) 22:51, 7 December 2008 (UTC)

There's nothing that says it and nothing that doesn't say it. It's just common sense. These articles do adhere to WP:V. The information is verifiable. The source of the information is just not stated explicitly in the text.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 01:55, 8 December 2008 (UTC)

You say "These articles do adhere to WP:V", but then again you say "The source of the information is just not stated explicitly in the text". You also say "The items you are tagging are so blatantly true that they do not need to be referenced whatsoever", but WP:V says "The threshold for inclusion in Wikipedia is verifiability, not truth—that is, whether readers are able to check that material added to Wikipedia has already been published by a reliable source, not whether we think it is true". Also, as per WP:NOT, You cannot have information on Wikipedia merely because it is true. —Mythdon (talk • contribs) 04:31, 8 December 2008 (UTC)

I'm using common sense as to what is and is not explicitly referenced. You are not. The information is true and is verifiable. Again, you are looking too into the strict adherence of these policies. These pages are fine in all Wikipedia policies as far as I know and am concerned as an administrator.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 05:27, 8 December 2008 (UTC)

"You are looking too into the strict adherence of these policies" - No I'm not. I'm looking into the important adherence of these policies and WP:V is one of the policies that articles should adhere to. If the content is not sourced, it should either be removed or tagged as needing a citation. That is a fact. —Mythdon (talk • contribs) 05:32, 8 December 2008 (UTC)

The articles adhere to WP:V. The information is verifiable. It has been verifiable. No one has had any problem with the information until you started saying "this needs to be cited, and this needs to be cited." I have constantly told you, "if it isn't broken, don't fix it," and this is one of those situations. Just let it be and everything will be fine. The article is not going to be in any danger of being deleted (unless you decide that Wikipedia does not need it) and I am tired of seeing your issues with everything every day. Please find another topic to edit on, or try not to use a strict reading of policy.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 05:37, 8 December 2008 (UTC)

You cannot have information on Wikipedia if it is not verifiable, or at least hasn't been verified yet. Every time I have searched for sources on information for Power Rangers articles, I have found no reliable sources and that is why I have been nominating multiple Power Rangers articles for deletion lately. —Mythdon (talk • contribs) 05:48, 8 December 2008 (UTC)

The information is verifiable. And the articles are fine. As it was stated in the AFD on the minor characters, the information is out there, it's just you who thinks that the various sources are not reliable.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 06:19, 8 December 2008 (UTC)]\

But if the information is not reliable, then where does the information have a place on Wikipedia?. —Mythdon (talk • contribs) 06:21, 8 December 2008 (UTC)

The information is verifiable. You just feel the sources that list this information are unreliable.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 07:15, 8 December 2008 (UTC)

We cannot have articles on a subject if no reliable sources can be found. Also, we can't have articles on a something if it does not adhere to WP:V. —Mythdon (talk • contribs) 07:18, 8 December 2008 (UTC)

You can't find these "reliable sources." Other people have.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 07:22, 8 December 2008 (UTC)

Every time I start an AfD concerning lack of coverage in reliable sources, I'm perfectly fine with editors finding reliable sources. If they want the article kept, they should cite their sources. If not, the article is doomed. —Mythdon (talk • contribs) 07:26, 8 December 2008 (UTC)

Have you even written an article yet? All I see from you is complaints about content that is easily fixed or you can find the sources that do exist out there. You are not the person who decides whether or not a source is reliable or not. It is up to the community at large.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 07:37, 8 December 2008 (UTC)

I have written an article, but not a real big one. Just stubs. Jeremy Hubbard (here is the diff of when I first made it) is an example. —Mythdon (talk • contribs) 07:43, 8 December 2008 (UTC)

Have you contributed as such to a Power Rangers article lately?—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 07:45, 8 December 2008 (UTC)

What I've contributed lately? Lets see, I pretty much haven't added stuff to Power Rangers articles lately. Its all been removals lately. —Mythdon (talk • contribs) 07:48, 8 December 2008 (UTC)

Information should be cited, but adding a <ref> to every sentence makes prose un-readable. Same with {{fact}} tags. Use common sense, please. Thanks! --MZMcBride (talk) 01:59, 8 December 2008 (UTC)

Okay. You just asked for a reference for the synopsis of SPD. This is beyond ridiculous. Stop this frivolous tagging now, or you will be blocked.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 08:49, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

And I just saw that you did this for every single series/season. That is it. The next fact tag I see you add to something which should use one's common sense, I will get someone to block you.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 08:51, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

How is that a blockable offense?. —Mythdon (talk • contribs) 19:55, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

Disruptive editing.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 03:19, 10 December 2008 (UTC)

Way should i cite a source if the current schedule is on ABC Kids website. What next are you going go to the The CW article and remove the current schedule saying cite a source. Powergate92Talk 04:42, 8 December 2008 (UTC)

If you want the information to stay, cite a source. Otherwise, I will keep removing it. —Mythdon (talk • contribs) 04:45, 8 December 2008 (UTC)

The ABC, NBC, CBS, FOX, The CW, MyNetworkTV and ION Television articles do not have sources for there schedules as there schedules are on there websites. So way should the ABC Kids article need a source for its schedule if its schedule is on its website. Powergate92Talk 16:32, 8 December 2008 (UTC)

Because information on Wikipedia needs to have already been published by a reliable source per WP:V. —Mythdon (talk • contribs) 20:03, 8 December 2008 (UTC)

Their official website has been dead for nearly a year now. Leave the section in the main article for now, as it is verifiable that it exists.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 08:39, 8 December 2008 (UTC)

Cite a source. If you want that information kept in the article. —Mythdon (talk • contribs) 18:04, 8 December 2008 (UTC)

What part of "The Power Morphicon website is gone" don't you understand? The information is staying.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 21:43, 8 December 2008 (UTC)

Because what we have is right, and I, as an administrator say that the content is fine as it is.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 22:22, 8 December 2008 (UTC)

Then add the citations. —Mythdon (talk • contribs) 22:23, 8 December 2008 (UTC)

I say it is fine as it is.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 22:28, 8 December 2008 (UTC)

You may say so, but Wikipedia has to have information sourced. —Mythdon (talk • contribs) 22:33, 8 December 2008 (UTC)

As a Wikipedia administrator, I say the content and its current level of sourcing is fine. It could be better, but it is fine as it is.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 22:35, 8 December 2008 (UTC)

Then why aren't you making it better?. —Mythdon (talk • contribs) 22:39, 8 December 2008 (UTC)

Do you think the {{fact}} tags need to be on the articles until sources are placed?. —Mythdon (talk • contribs) 20:52, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

Hi! I regret that I must inform you that your request for the rollback permission has been denied. You can discover why by checking the archives at Wikipedia:Requests for permissions/Denied/December 2008#Mythdon. SoxBot X (talk) 22:00, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

The way you format your talk page with your archive box being a navbox directly on the bottom of the page is highly unnecessary and frankly not very useful, as you constantly have to move it downward. I would suggest you not treat this thing as a navbox (which I warned you about earlier this year) and use it as a header box as normal users would.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 23:14, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

I'm not changing it. I'm not going to use the normal talk page archiving methods. I like how I can format my talk page navbox any way I want to, and that way, I can add additional archiving links besides just the archived talk pages. Sure, my talk page may not be within the normal range, but at least I have an archiving method. —Mythdon (talk • contribs) 23:25, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

Navboxes are not for talk pages. They are for organizing related articles.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 01:06, 10 December 2008 (UTC)

That is what they are meant for, but I'm using them in a different way for my talk page archives. Also, I replied to one of your posts in the "fact tagging" section, but you have yet to reply. —Mythdon (talk • contribs) 01:17, 10 December 2008 (UTC)

Well, it'd be more useful if you kept the box at the top of your page, because you constantly need to move it anyway.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 03:20, 10 December 2008 (UTC)

I chose to merge Mesogog after seeing the AFD. Just because it closes as "no consensus" does not mean that someone afterward can go in and decide "I want to merge this."—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 05:34, 13 December 2008 (UTC)

Well, the AfD did show a consensus to merge, so maybe I was wrong to revert your merge. I guess AfD doesn't decide everything. —Mythdon (talk • contribs) 05:35, 13 December 2008 (UTC)

The AFD was closed as no consensus. I decided to merge after I saw several other similar articles (Lothor, Katherine Manx, Omega Ranger) had pretty much the same merge result.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 05:40, 13 December 2008 (UTC)

I know it was closed as no conensus, but it also shown a slight consensus to merge, and that slight consensus to merge included me as one of the two editors to say merge. I guess I'll let the merge stand. —Mythdon (talk • contribs) 05:44, 13 December 2008 (UTC)

Are you actually following where I've editted? Why else would you have put {{unsigned}} all over SSRanger's talk page for his comments?—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 07:47, 14 December 2008 (UTC)
