LGBT Anime Additions
[edit]Please stop adding things like Nagisa Saitō and Kyubey. Neither are even remotely appropriate to add. --Tarage (talk) 23:33, 9 April 2018 (UTC)
- Oh ok...that's cool :) --GlitchyM. (talk) 15:29, 10 April 2018 (UTC)
And while we're at it, please add series/characters one at a time. It makes it easier for me to revert if they are inappropriate. Likewise please stop adding character like the Synphogear characters. Aside from the two transgender characters, none of the ones you added have ANY sources confirming their sexual orientation. I've deleted it twice now. Don't add it again, and PLEASE notice when they get removed so you don't keep re-adding them and others like them. --Tarage (talk) 00:40, 20 April 2018 (UTC)
- Sorry, just saw your message now. I somewhat understand but on the wiki page, it does say that Miku has a crush on Hibiki. Furthermore for the character I said was genderqueer (Saint-Germain) , it stated for her that she likes dressing like a man too. But if it's not truly a reliable source then ok sure. --GlitchyM. (talk) 02:02, 20 April 2018 (UTC)
- Dressing like a man doesn't make you genderqueer. --Tarage (talk) 05:05, 20 April 2018 (UTC)
- Also, one question. The character, Ryōko Sakurai (still from Synphogear), it states that "She tends to sexually harass Hibiki and shows inappropriate interest in her." The part where it says "inappropriate interests in her", couldn't that be of lustful and sexual desires for Hibiki which could display signs of lesbianism or bisexuality? --GlitchyM. (talk) 02:09, 20 April 2018 (UTC)
- Sexually harassing a character does not guarantee that said character is a lesbian or gay. What you are talking about is synthesis. If a reliable source doesn't say "This character is X", then we don't report it. --Tarage (talk) 05:05, 20 April 2018 (UTC)
- Ok!! Thanks! :D --GlitchyM. (talk) 17:46, 20 April 2018 (UTC)
PLEASE only add/modify ONE SERIES AT A TIME. I'm getting tired of asking you to do this. ONE AT A TIME. --Tarage (talk) 17:54, 26 April 2018 (UTC)
- Also I'm getting really tired of removing things you keep adding over and over and over again. If you add something and it gets removed, TALK ABOUT IT ON THE TALK PAGE BEFORE ADDING IT AGAIN. --Tarage (talk) 17:56, 26 April 2018 (UTC)
- Just seeing this now. Wait so I have to save each and every edit I do before moving on to the next one? That seems a bit long but since it's actually becoming a problem then...I'll try. Furthermore, the edit that your talking about in Synphogear, it does say that Miku has a "crush" on Hibiki both on Wiki and the website. That still means that Miku has a love interest in Hibiki despite the fact that Hibiki is seeing her as a best friend. GlitchyM. (talk) 01:46, 29 April 2018 (UTC)
- If there is no reliable source strictly saying they are a couple, we don't report it. Also, I feel like I shouldn't need to say this again, but they are CHILDREN. Thirdly yes, hit save between each addition. Otherwise you create a mess when I need to revert or remove things. --Tarage (talk) 20:47, 29 April 2018 (UTC)

Mirrors
[edit] Thanks for contributing to the article List of animated works with LGBT characters. However, one of Wikipedia's core policies is that material must be verifiable and attributed to reliable sources. You have recently used citations which copied, or mirrored, material from Wikipedia. This leads to a circular reference and is not acceptable. Most mirrors are clearly labeled as such, but some are in violation of our license and do not provide the correct attribution. Please help by adding alternate sources to the article you edited! If you need any help or clarification, you can look at Help:Contents/Editing Wikipedia or ask at Wikipedia:New contributors' help page, or just ask me. Thank you. Kuru (talk) 12:06, 7 May 2018 (UTC)
- Thank you so much for this. When I need help, I'll definitely turn to this. :) GlitchyM. (talk) 13:45, 7 May 2018 (UTC)
Copying within Wikipedia requires proper attribution
[edit]Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from various articles to List of animated works with LGBT characters (your additions have since been removed). While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. If you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, please provide attribution for that duplication. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 21:09, 8 May 2018 (UTC)
I see you are still not adding the required attribution, as required under the terms of the CC-by-SA license. Please have a look at this edit summary as an example of how it is done. Please leave a message on my talk page if you still don't understand what to do or why we have to do it. Thanks, — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 13:19, 17 September 2018 (UTC)
You can move your article to the manga wikia
[edit]You are the only content editor on your article Wife and Wife, so just copy your work over to the Manga Wikia and you can preserve your work and expand it as you see fit. http://manga.wikia.com/wiki/Special:CreatePage Dream Focus 18:35, 29 May 2018 (UTC)
- Ok. I've got a request though. I'm quite busy with the GCSE exams for the next two weeks so I don't really have much focused time to spend editing that page for now but I will edit it. Likewise, could you save the "Wife and Wife" page so that I could refer to it later on? Thanks. --GlitchyM. (talk) 14:11, 31 May 2018 (UTC)
- OMG!! Thank you so much!!! -- GlitchyM. (talk) 17:51, 31 May 2018 (UTC)
- GlitchyM., I already commented at the AFD, but you should know that the article will almost certainly be deleted regardless of notability criteria as it appears to consist largely of copy-pasted text. I'm telling you now for your benefit that you should never copy text onto Wikipedia unless it is "free" (free text here means very old, public domain text, text that includes no original prose such as bulleted lists like this one, etc.; it does not mean any material that is available free of charge). The reason for this is that each time you click "Publish changes" you are agreeing to release it under a free license, but you aren't allowed release someone else's text under that license.
- After seeing the ふ〜ふ article at AFD I did a check on your other edits and fount that this edit also appears to include text taken from other sources.
- I must emphasize that you are not in that much trouble here as long as you do not continue adding copyrighted text to Wikipedia. A lot of new editors have trouble with copyright, and you're honestly lucky this was found early in your Wikipedia career: late last year I came across an editor with several thousand edits and over 100 article creations under their belt, spread out over four years, and it turned out they hadn't a clue about copyright and inappropriately-close paraphrasing.
- Anyway, good luck in your GCSEs, and if you want to ask about copyright concerns (or anything else wiki-related, honestly) feel free to message me on my talk page! :-)
- Cheers!

- GlitchyM, did you just copy from this other website? Its down now so can't tell if you did or if its one of those sites that just has a bot so anytime an article for a new Anime or Manga are created on Wikipedia, it copies information to it. A lot of websites out there do copy stuff from Wikipedia after all. Or was the information from both locations copied from the source manga? Dream Focus 14:35, 1 June 2018 (UTC)
- As I stated at AFD, such a bot would need to be incredibly fast, have been operating either while or immediately before the site was taken down for maintenance, and most significantly have known to create separate pages for the individual characters. Read: extremely unlikely.
- If both were taken word-for-word from another source: that might be fair use as myanimelist uses it, but not as we have been: the site being down, for all I know it was in quotation marks or was otherwise clearly attributed to its source. It doesn't really matter, therefore, whether it was copy-pasted from an anime fan site or from some "official" source.
- Hijiri 88 (聖やや) 14:43, 1 June 2018 (UTC)
- Bots would run every day, it not taking long to do this. As I said, I'll have to wait and see when the site comes back up. And if its fair use there then its fair use on the wikia most likely. Dream Focus 14:52, 1 June 2018 (UTC)
- No, Wikia's license is the same as ours,[1] and if you still don't understand how that works ... well, technically if your only recent violation was on a different website you can't be sanctioned for it here, but it doesn't bode welll that you think entire paragraphs of copy-pasted text, not marked as quotation, are acceptable under Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike License 3.0. I'm not a copyright lawyer so I am not certain whether, under circumstances where a reader would likely assume text was borrowed from elsewhere, it is therefore acceptable not to say so directly and call it fair use, but I really don't give a damn about whether some anime fansite violated some manga localizer's copyright: per both Wikipedia and Wikia rules, you are not allowed take text you found elsewhere and release it under a free license. I'm being polite to GlitchM. because they're new, but you really, really should know better at this point. Hijiri 88 (聖やや) 22:49, 1 June 2018 (UTC)

- Just seeing this now. Thanks for telling me all this. I shall keep that in mind for any future edits I do. Also, yes I used both MyAnimeList and a manga source to make the edits. Furthermore, I just finished reading the manga myself so I still had most knowledge of the characters anyway. -- GlitchyM. (talk) 17:26, 1st June 2018 (UTC)
- Cool. Just go over and reword things a bit, and it'll be fine. Dream Focus 17:13, 1 June 2018 (UTC)
- GlitchyM., I should clarify: don't "just reword things a bit"; you need to completely rewrite everything you add to Wikipedia in your own words, and once you have done so you should go to an admin (User:TonyBallioni is my go-to in copyright cases) and ask for the previous versions of the article to be removed from the public logs.
- As for tips on writing, if you are familiar with the original source material, I would imagine it would actually be easier for you to write your own descriptions from scratch, than to take what other fans have posted online and try to rewrite it in your own words. Technically, it is also a violation of policy to cite a secondary source, but incorporate stuff gleaned from a primary source into what you attribute to that secondary source, but that's actually a bit more complicated to explain than our copyright policy, and unless you plan on turning your talk page into a "safe space" for me (don't ask), I'd really rather not get into nitty-gritty stuff like that here right now: if you want more explication of WP:V and WP:NOR I can do that on my talk page.

Last warning: Add one at a time, stop reverting without explanation, and USE THE TALK PAGE
[edit]This is unacceptable. Not only did you once again remove Korra, but you are mass adding again. This is the last time I am going to warn you about this behavior. I have reverted it because you need to do this ONE. AT. A. TIME. Failure to do so will result in me reporting you for vandalism. If you get reverted, USE THE TALK PAGE. Is that clear? --Tarage (talk) 17:57, 8 October 2018 (UTC)
- The reason why I removed Korra was because it was duplicated. The Legend of Korra series came out in 2012 but for whatever reason, there was a duplicate in 2005. If this was because of the original Avatar series, then shouldn't it be combined or something? Also about the mass adding, most of it was based on original research on the page (along with my observations). If it is a problem, then fine...I'll have to inform the talk page more often then --GlitchyM. (talk) 23:00, 8 October 2018 (UTC)
- Was that so hard? I've gone ahead and removed it, and while removing it I used an edit summary so people know WHY I removed it. You'll notice I do that with nearly everything, including when I revert you. Communication is required here. If you just mindless add/remove stuff, especially in bulk, and don't even leave an edit summary, or worse, REPEATEDLY do it, people like me come pounding on your door. Also yes, original research is not something we use here. You've been told this numerous times. If there's no concrete source saying something, don't add it. I keep having to ask you do to these very basic things and it's frustrating the heck out of me. I don't want to ask again. --Tarage (talk) 22:53, 8 October 2018 (UTC)

[edit]@GlitchyM.: Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear to be constructive and has been reverted. If you only meant to make a test edit, please use the sandbox for that. Thank you. HeartGlow30797 (talk) 21:17, 12 December 2018 (UTC)
- Oh no, I wasn't removing anything. The Wiki page was just looking messed from that section of the edit, so I was just re-adding it in order to fix it. GlitchyM. (talk) 21:20, 12 December 2018 (UTC)
Copying licensed material requires attribution
[edit]Hi. I see in a recent addition to List of video games with LGBT characters you included material from the Super Mario wiki. That's okay, but you have to give attribution so that our readers are made aware that you copied the prose rather than wrote it yourself. I've added the attribution for this particular instance. Please make sure that you follow this licensing requirement when copying from compatibly-licensed material in the future. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 13:34, 11 March 2019 (UTC)

Copying within Wikipedia requires attribution (2nd request)
[edit] Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from List of The Garden of Sinners characters into List of animated works with LGBT characters. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g., copied content from [[page name]]; see that page's history for attribution
. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. The attribution has been provided for this situation, but if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, please provide attribution for that duplication. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. If you are the sole author of the prose that was copied, attribution is not required. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 20:03, 1 April 2019 (UTC)

[edit]Removing references on List of animated series with LGBT characters
[edit]I don't mind you changing Rui to being genderqueer and some other minor changes, but I don't get why you removed references to episodes, which are accepted as fine on the page itself. If you want to add additional sources, feel free, but please don't remove references to episodes, as they are generally accepted on this page. I say that as a person who added most of the episode references, which are necessary for anime due to the fact that there are often very few English-language reviews of the anime shows out there, and those that are out there are on random blogs, which are not reliable sources. That's all.Historyday01 (talk) 23:42, 25 December 2019 (UTC)
- I removed them because they were placed in the wrong series. For e.g. you placed Boogiepop references into Wataten. I didn't know where exactly to place them for the Boogiepop table so I ended up just removing it from Wataten. Sorry about that...GlitchyM. (talk) 21:06, 27 December 2019 (UTC)
Surreal comedy anime and manga
[edit]Please, do not just add series to the Category:Surreal comedy anime and manga without reliable sources confirming the genre. Without sources, the addition is considered simply personal interpretation.--Xexerss (talk) 00:52, 8 January 2020 (UTC)
- Oh alright then. I'll be sure to do that next time. GlitchyM. (talk) 21:31, 8 January 2019 (UTC)
Edits to list of animated series with LGBT characters
[edit]While I would grumble about you removing the entry for Asteroid in Love, perhaps I was reaching too far. Maybe its the amount of anime with yuri themes I've watched that brought be to that conclusion, dunno. I doubt those characters will appear in future episodes, just like Shep in Steven Universe Future will likely be a one-time character. I remain hopeful for the future episodes and will do what I can to continue updating the page. Thanks for being a vigilant editor of the page!--Historyday01 (talk) 22:03, 14 January 2020 (UTC)
- I get what you mean though XD. Majority of the yuri anime on this list were added by me almost two years ago, and I was constantly reminded to always add some referencing (instead of always referring to original sources). For advice, I would let the series finish first before finding traces of lesbian characters...unless maybe there's sources from the manga that already confirm them to be the latter. GlitchyM. (talk) 06:48, 15 January 2020 (UTC)
- Yeah, I think you are right about Farina Jenius / Mirage. I probably extrapolated too much from that. In any case, she did seem to like Hayate, as did Freeja. I do wish that there was more representation in that show. I'll have to watch Matross Frontier again, but I don't think there are any LGBT characters apart from the one listed on the page presently. In any case, I'll keep watching more in the remaining months this year. I guess Interspecies Reviewers was too risque for Funamation, so they won't be streaming it anymore, although the show is planned to have 12 episodes.--Historyday01 (talk) 18:00, 1 February 2020 (UTC)
- Yeah I heard...it's a shame considering this show was BLATANTLY accurate, hence why I loved it! GlitchyM. (talk) 21:55, 1 February 2020 (UTC)
- Anyway, thanks for the recent edits to the page. I admit that what I put for Crim and Iena probably needed improvement and I'll try to do that more in the future. Its just, sometimes, there's a lot to say, and its hard to restrain that. But, I'll do my best.--Historyday01 (talk) 18:44, 26 February 2020 (UTC)

"Open for business" (in terms of editing pages on LGBTQ animation)
