I need some help with people and editing

Hello, I'm having a bit of trouble with editing the Yumeiro Pâtissière page. I was wondering what should I do when an editor and her friends (or possibly the editor herself using different accounts) change the article to what I think is a less Wikipedia-approved version? I have already tried discussing the issue with the main person, but she hasn't replied to me yet. I know I should wait a while, but I have a weird hunch that she has most definitely already at least seen my attempts to discuss the article with her. So, I don't know what to do if she continually ignores me and tries to win at this so-called editing war... In addition, I have discovered that most of the new changes taking place on this anime page are the exact same descriptions that were taken from the yumeiropatissierewikia page. (I'm too lazy to give citations right now but let me know if you want them).

But, in my opinion as of right now, the article should no longer be B-rated as it is currently.

So... what should I do when I can't even have a good discussion on what needs to be edited on this article?

If you are interested in helping me (please), then please look at this talk page on YP.

Please and thank you!!!!!!!! Reeniereindeer (talk) 02:08, 2 September 2010 (UTC)

Hello Reeniereindeer and welcome to Wikipedia,

I'll try to answer your questions in order. If an editor refuses to engage in discussion, then that's considered "disruptive editing". Usually, the best thing to do in such a situation is to ask for administrator help. You can do that at the administrators' noticeboard for incidents. Before you do that, however, make sure to read WP:DDE. Using different accounts ("sock puppets" as they are called on Wikipedia) is forbidden in most cases. Simply mention your suspicion about this in your report to the noticeboard. As for inserting material into Wikipedia that has been copied from another website, that is a tricker question. If the material is in the public domain or licensed in a way that is compatible with the licenses of Wikipedia (the CC-BY-SA 3.0 and the GFDL) and is properly attributed, then there's no problem. Only copyright violations aren't tolerated. As for the rating, don't worry about it. These ratings are mainly used to track progress in article development on a large scale and to help point local editors to what can be improved at an article. Whether a particular article is rated C- or B-class, isn't that important. I hope that answers your question. You can always come to me if you need help with anything. Also, there's usually lots of editors willing to help out at WT:ANIME. Good raise 03:09, 2 September 2010 (UTC)

PS: I just noticed that there are messages for you at User:Reeniereindeer. It would seem the editor you are having a conflict with is confusing your user page with your talk page. Perhaps you didn't see the messages there? The same thing happened to me when I was new, because I didn't have my own user page watchlisted. Good raise 03:56, 2 September 2010 (UTC)

Hey, yeah I saw those messages. They're not very constructive, honestly, but I tried to reply to them on the talk page of Yumeiro Pâtissière. Still haven't had a good constructive discussion going on. But anyway, thank you for your help, I really appreciate it. I honestly don't have the heart to deal with all of the energy and passion that this editor has, and I'd hate to burst her bubble for something that she strongly believes in as well. I think it's great that she's fighting for something that she wants, even if she uses the wrong means to do so. But to me, this is not really worth fighting for. If she wants the article to be what she wants, then that's fine, she (and her friends?) can have the article. What she's doing anyway is voicing the opinions that everybody, including me, has while watching the show. But obviously, that's bias --not very Wikipedia-like. Anyway, with that said, I don't plan on turning her in to the Sock puppetry noticeboard.

Thanks for everything!! I really really really appreciate it!!!! :) Reeniereindeer (talk) 06:24, 2 September 2010 (UTC)

"I don't plan on turning her in to the Sock puppetry noticeboard." - Don't think of it that way. Administrators simply have the means to enforce discussion and stop foul play. But never mind, I'll take a closer look at what is going on at that article myself. Good raise 07:22, 2 September 2010 (UTC)

Manga character list reference style

Note: Title changed. Good raise 20:46, 29 January 2012 (UTC)

I implemented the new style you showed of citing volumes in List of Naruto characters. It looks very good! Anyway, do you think it would work with the Fullmetal Alchemist lists as some volumes also contain Gaiden chapters apart from the regulars and do not use volume titles? Regards.Tintor2 (talk) 02:41, 6 October 2011 (UTC)

Thanks. Glad you like it. Though I'm still not satisfied. When citing a page number, one must specify which version the number is referring to. And that just looks clusmy like this.^{[vol. 21:39 (ja)]} Anyway, you could cite a gaiden chapter like this.^{[vol. 57:gaiden]} Or like this.^{[vol. 24:"Daughter of the Dusk—Prologue"]} Or you could use a normal <ref ...>-footnote and link to the volume entry from there without using {{gnr}}. Perhaps like this:

Fullmetal Alchemist: Volume #24. Gaiden chapter: "Daughter of the Dusk—Prologue".

Lack of volume titles isn't really a problem, since {{gnn}} doesn't take care of the reference numbering and its |ref= parameter is freestyle. You could do it like this:

Volume No. 24: Vol. 24 (ch. 21–24): March 7, 2001. ISBN XXX-X-XXXX-XXXX-X. (in Japanese). and August 1, 2004. ISBN XXX-X-XXXXX-XXX-X. (in English).

In any case, there's still massive room for improvement. Suggestions and criticism more than welcome. Good raise 04:22, 6 October 2011 (UTC)

Thanks. I find this one better as it links to the specific volume noted. Maybe placing a "p. #" or "pp. #" for plural would help to explain readers it is referring to a page. Regards.Tintor2 (talk) 15:22, 6 October 2011 (UTC)

Well, there's nothing stopping you from doing it like that.^{[vol. 24, p. 16]} Much like {{rp}}, {{gnr}} allows for a variety of styles. Something else: Do you think there should be a space after the period,^{ch. 84} like this?^{vol. 13} Good raise 01:58, 7 October 2011 (UTC)

I suppose considering the size it has in the articles.Tintor2 (talk) 02:29, 7 October 2011 (UTC)

Hello,

I received a CCI Notice from you for my latest Wiki edits. I work as the PR for a magazine and I have been editing our news onto Wikipedia, but apparently I have violated some rules by doing so. I think I was confused before as I thought if I completely cited our website as well as directly linking the exact news article I posted information from would suffice as a proper citation. I have re-edited my earlier posts, in hopes of editing the Wiki pages in an appropriate manner. From this point on, if I were to refer to our news articles as a source of information and re-write our news in a Wiki edit, would it be possible to have this CCI Notice revoked? I apologize for still being unfamiliar with all the editing rules on Wikipedia and violating these rules, but now that I am fully aware of my errors, I would greatly appreciate it if I could be forgiven for my errors and given another chance to properly contribute to the Wiki pages.Ohhellomai (talk) 09:21, 19 November 2011 (UTC)

That depends on what you want to report. I don't know what is going on between you, because I'm not following you around. As I see it, your options at this point are as follows:

Look for the answer yourself. It should be somewhere in Wikipedia:Dispute resolution.

Go directly to Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents, tell them what happend and ask for help.

Ah, Goodraise, no need for apologies or a cookie, but thanks nevertheless. I have no issue with anything you've brought up, and I'm sorry to read that you have "dissatisfaction over the FLC process". Is there anything specific that we need to do better? I'd hate for this to turn into a counselling session, but there's no way I'd want one of most senior contributors to harbour some kind of issue without us getting an opportunity to perhaps do (or at least, start to do) something about it, improve the process and make it better for all. Times at WP:FLC are tough at the moment, we're down to our lowest ever turnover of featured lists (gone, perhaps thankfully, are the days of most cookie-cutter FLs, but nominations are few and reviewers fewer). Your comments on any FLC are always welcome, and I hope you know that. I've saved you half a cookie, just in case you pop back..... The Rambling Man (talk) 19:06, 3 February 2012 (UTC)

Good to know I didn't step on too many toes. My usual reaction, when I realize my contributions are colored by an emotional state, is for me to get away from editing for a while.

Wikipedia:Requests for comment/Muhammad images

Hi Goodraise. I just wanted to ask you to reconsider your opposition to the functional hatnote. I picked you because your wording is so similar to how I think of the situation. Wikipedia doesn't need to get mixed up in censorship. Our readers should, in every browser, have the ability to view without images-- every browser has that.

I feel like pointing this out to our users, that their own browser can do this job for them, is the ideal solution. Once upon a time, my ideal solution was exactly the same as yours: Just educate readers about what their browser can do-- no images is a standard option.

Unfortunately, when I initially made that conclusion, I dramatically underestimated the cultural and technical barriers to IT education. Consider that I routinely am unable to help my grandparents understand very simple, user-friendly technology like a GPS or a cell phone. Now remember that my grandparents are unusually intelligent and highly educated-- they spent 12+ years of life in full time study, they learned to read as small children, they had every advantage, but they still could never figure out how to turn off images in their webbrowser. That's just the truth-- I know of no way to teach them how to do something that complicated.

Now, consider the population that is reading Wikipedia. They may not be fluent in English. They may not be highly literate. They may not be technically literate. Walking them through every possible language/browser combination with instructions on turning off images is very very difficult. I couldn't write a good walkthrough in English, how could I write one in Farsi?

The simple truth is that while telling users to turn off images using their browser is the IDEAL solution, philosophically speaking-- it doesn't work. We do not successfully communicate the instructions to our readers-- it's just a little too much.

It doesn't need to be this difficult though. Instead of making users click on talk, then on a subpage, then on instructions, then on their browser options-- we just need to have one simple box that toggles images.

I'm promise, I'm not trying to harass ya :). It's just your reasoning is right on. This should be handled in browser.

Two lines of javascript could end the whole "controversial images" debate. And with an in-page image toggle, NOTCENSORED would be even stronger. No valid complaints from readers-- we would seize the moral highground by pointing to the image toggle box any time someone brings up the notion of deletion. It would be a stable solution that educates are readons about how we don't censor, but we don't force images on people either.

Anyway, that's my pitch. :) Either way, thank you for participating in the RFC. :) --HectorMoffet (talk) 06:09, 20 March 2012 (UTC)

Well, I'm warming up to the idea somewhat, but I could only support such a hatnote if it were placed on each and every article, not just this one. And even then, I'm not sure I would. I'll have to give it some thought. Good raise 06:31, 20 March 2012 (UTC)
