Welcome
Hi, welcome to D.GrayMan Encyclopedia! Thanks for your edit to the Episodes page.

Please leave a message on my talk page if I can help with anything! -- Nick D Wolfwood (Talk) 20:35, January 7, 2011

Congrats
congratgulations, you are now an admin. ^_^ Hlp922 00:24, January 10, 2011 (UTC)

Re: Great
"Is it really great what I'm doing at this wikia or is it going a but too far??" ProGamerP9 (Userpage 吉 Talk) 19:37, January 11, 2011 (UTC)

yes, i think its great. but what do you mean about the last part? Hlp922 23:09, January 11, 2011 (UTC)

Mistaken for a Fanfic wiki...
Someone has mistaken this wiki for a fanfiction wiki, but since I'm not an admin I can't do anything about deleting their article. Could you possibly take care of that? The page is under the name "Dimana D Gray-Man(FanFiction)". Thank you. .Seshat. 17:53, January 12, 2011 (UTC)

^.^ Yes, I saw; thank you very much for replying. .Seshat. 07:12, January 13, 2011 (UTC)

That article you were asking about is the Spanish fanfiction post of the same person who posted that fanfic OC character page I asked you to delete the other day. I've explained that this is an official information site only to the person in English and in Spanish, but s/he posted that page anyway. Feel free to delete it, and could you talk to the user? If they keep this up and ignore the rules they may need their IP address blocked. .Seshat. 21:42, January 13, 2011 (UTC)

Thank you... Like I said, I've tried to talk to the person; I even gave them a link to the D.Gray-Man fanon wiki so they could go post their material there, but I've been ignored. They even deleted official information from Klaud Nine's page and deleted the reference section to put in their own fanfiction-related trivia, which was directly related to the same fanfic story in question.

If they don't answer me or even respond to my posts, there's nothing I can do other than undo the vandalism they're doing to this wiki, but as a regular user I can't delete the pages they add. I'm sorry to trouble you with this, and thank you very much for taking action. .Seshat. 21:55, January 13, 2011 (UTC)

Concerning proper nouns, from character names to the names of places...
Since there are nineteen volumes of the D.Gray-Man manga out in English, can we start editing the names of characters and places to change them to how they are spelled in the official manga?

I know this project will make several users unhappy (a lot of them prefer to use the names given to them by translators, like Binktopia, who post on online manga reading sites), but if we want to be taken as a serious wiki we need to use the official English names as they are presented to us by Viz.

I've compiled a list of incorrectly used character names and posted them in my most recent blog, and I'd be happy to help move character articles to properly named pages, but I need the endorsement of an admin before I do anything or I'll be stepping on toes...

Your feedback would be much appreciated. .Seshat. 22:27, January 13, 2011 (UTC)

Thank you very much. ^.^ I'll begin work immediately. .Seshat. 07:03, January 14, 2011 (UTC)

Sorry, but could I ask for your help? I'm trying to move the Timcampy page to rename it 'Timcanpy' as it's translated in the manga, but the wiki won't let me; it says the action can't be performed, but it's a bit vague as to the reason why. .Seshat. 17:13, January 14, 2011 (UTC)

I'll be sure to come to you if I have troubles again. ^.^ Thank you. .Seshat. 19:05, January 14, 2011 (UTC)

Hi Progamer,

The volumes do also have their own pages with the chapter summaries on each. If this wasn't what you meant let me know.Wolfwood (Shoot)  13:25, January 15, 2011 (UTC)

chapter pages
the only chapters that have their own page at the moment are the ones not currently in volume format. I designed the list of volumes, summaries pages etc on the Bleach wiki style of giving volume info. If each chapter had it's own page trying to navigate through might become a little tricky!

Although we could add links on the volume list with a page for each chapter. Could you re design one of the new chapter summaries that isn't on a volume page to see how it'll look?..... oops just realised i didn't log in when i typed this!!Wolfwood (Shoot)  20:13, January 15, 2011 (UTC)

When is Fo's 1st appearance in the anime? What episode? atlanta girl  19:12, January 23, 2011 (UTC)

Vandalism...
I'm sorry to bug you with this, but someone just made a page here http://dgrayman.wikia.com/wiki/Yuu_Kanda sheerly for the sake of vandalizing the site... Could you please delete that? Thank you. ^.^' .Seshat. 19:47, January 23, 2011 (UTC)

^.^' Hehe, I'm sorry... Actually, there was something else I've been meaning to talk to you about. There are a few pages on the wiki that are intended to redirect people to certain articles, but they don't redirect properly; instead of going there directly, they take the user to a mostly blank page that has the new redirect. I think they're broken redirect links from when a few pages had their names changed...

For example, For used to redirect to Fou, but now that Fo's page has been renamed, when people search for For they get this http://dgrayman.wikia.com/wiki/For. Would fixing the redirect options get rid of that, or do those pages have to be deleted? .Seshat. 19:58, January 23, 2011 (UTC)

Ah, I see... Kinda. ^.^' I get the basic theory behind the mechanics, so your explanation does make sense. Thank you for that, and I'm sorry for the trouble. .Seshat. 20:13, January 23, 2011 (UTC)

^.^' Another day, another 'useless page' from me... An anon has created a page for Kanda: http://dgrayman.wikia.com/wiki/Yuu_Kanda. May I call upon your almighty admin powers to delete this article? (bows head low) Please and thank you. .Seshat. 19:31, January 29, 2011 (UTC)

This is getting to be a problem... Another 'Yuu Kanda' page by an anonymous contributor, only judging from the text they inserted, they did it sheerly for the sake of vandalism. The page is here, and could you block this user? I've fixed the redirects to Kanda's page, so there should be no reason that anyone would think that making another page for him is necessary. Besides, with the only text on that page being 'the king', this person is just vandalizing instead of contributing. Thank you. .Seshat. 18:52, February 1, 2011 (UTC)

Template design
Thank you very much for taking care of the Yuu Kanda page... May I bug you further? You know how you designed new templates for the character biographies? How do you make those templates? I wanted to redo the Asia Branch and European Branch pages, and I wanted to insert information templates into those pages to reflect certain pieces of information (like Bleach wiki did with the individual division pages for the Gotei 13). .Seshat. 22:01, January 29, 2011 (UTC)

Ah, I see... Okay. ^.^ I'll be waiting. Thank you. .Seshat. 15:42, January 30, 2011 (UTC)

Oh, so that's why templates have their own pages... I'd never been sure if that was for functionality or for testing. ^.^ Thank you very much for your help; I'll try to use what you've taught me to make this a better wiki. Keep an eye out for my attempts~! ^.^ .Seshat. 18:30, January 30, 2011 (UTC)

(cowering in a corner) Cannot... do... it... Too... much... coding... Can't figure it out... I'm sorry, sensei; I failed you. (dies) Just kill me and erase the evidence... .Seshat. 19:19, January 30, 2011 (UTC)

Facebook chibis...
You're the one who does the DGM Facebook, right? Well... I noticed you'd found a Lenalee chibi, an Allen chibi, and a Kanda chibi, so I found... a Komui chibi~! http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3057/2795247947_76f47659b1.jpg

And look a Lavi chibi~! http://gi56.photobucket.com/groups/g174/9TROSXN74K/lavi_chibi___.jpg

XD Long live DGM chibis~! .Seshat. 18:31, January 31, 2011 (UTC)

Aah, yeah... (sighs) Sadly, it seems some of the admins here aren't as active as they used to be... There's one admin, Bon3z, who hasn't logged in in three years. .Seshat. 19:38, January 31, 2011 (UTC)

^.^ I know I like what you've done so far~. Thank you so much for all of the improvements you've made; it's been so much easier to navigate around and even just look at the wikia since you've made changes. And it's nice to have an admin who answers messages frequently... .Seshat. 19:44, January 31, 2011 (UTC)

I'd be honored to be considered as such~. ^.^ I love DGM and am happy to help out in any way I can at this wikia, including helping dedicated admins such as yourself. You've always been willing to help me, so if ever you need the favor returned, I pretty much always have the D.Gray-Man Wiki homepage open. .Seshat. 20:20, January 31, 2011 (UTC)

RE: background color
you can try it, and if you think it doesn't look good you can change it back and if you like it we can have a vote. ^_^ Hlp922 23:20, January 31, 2011 (UTC)

What about if we had the background be transparent, so we can see the pictures behind it? Like they did at the Assassin's Creed wiki (http://assassinscreed.wikia.com/wiki/Special:WikiActivity). .Seshat. 21:34, February 1, 2011 (UTC)

Just one question. Why its white instead of black? It was so much better :(. Urizithar 10:33, February 2, 2011 (UTC)

How large would the new background picture have to be? .Seshat. 14:12, February 2, 2011 (UTC)

^.^' I'm not good at making wallpapers... I was just going to compile a list of suggestions, if that's alright. .Seshat. 17:59, February 2, 2011 (UTC)

I'm pretty sure these are all official D.Gray-Man images, and I'll be uploading one more soon. .Seshat. 03:40, February 3, 2011 (UTC)

Okay, in that case I struckout the one that won't meet the criterion. The rest of them should be fine... I think. Which picture do you like? .Seshat. 07:04, February 3, 2011 (UTC)

^.^ Okay~. Thank you for taking this into consideration. .Seshat. 07:13, February 3, 2011 (UTC)

New Chapter Page
Hi Progamer,

I really like the new look chapter pages they are excellent. I´m writing up the summary of the new chapter now and it´ll be up soon.

Also great to see so many fans on the Facebook page too. The new wiki front page is also brilliant. you really are a credit to this wiki. Wolfwood (Shoot)  08:36, February 2, 2011 (UTC)

How did you make the facebook widget work. I have a problem on my wiki.

Episode?
What episode is this picture from? atlanta girl  23:46, February 3, 2011 (UTC)

Page move...
Can you undo a page move? Someone moved Sheril Kamelot's page and renamed it Sheryl Kamelot... .Seshat. 19:01, February 4, 2011 (UTC)

Destroyer of Time -> Crossroad
That volume page you just moved... The previous title was correct; Volume Seven is titled "Crossroad". .Seshat. 19:07, February 5, 2011 (UTC)

I don't know what the Japanese title of the volume is, but I know the English title is Crossroad. I have volume seven next to me right now... There was probably a mixup in the Japanese to Viz versions. ^.^' Sorry, Viz screws things up all the time. My bad. .Seshat. 19:15, February 5, 2011 (UTC)

D.Gray-Man Fanbook
I've recently bought and received the D.Gray-Man Gray Arc Fanbook for the job of renaming character pages to what they should be titled, but certain character articles will not let me make the necessary changes (I think it's because redirect pages of the same name exist). If I give you a list of names and what they should be changed to, will you please help me? .Seshat. 19:00, February 8, 2011 (UTC)

^.^ Thank you~

Yū Kanda -> Yu Kanda

Winters Zokalo -> Winters Socalo

Fō -> For

Now, there's one translation in the fanbook I'm not sure what to do about... The fanbook doesn't translate the Millennium Earl's name as Millennium Earl. It translates it as "The earl of the millennium", with the only part that's capitalized being the 'T' in 'The'... Should we leave the page titled as it is and put up at the top that his name is translated in Japanese as "The earl of the millennium"? .Seshat. 19:18, February 8, 2011 (UTC)

Alright. ^.^ Thank you very much for your help. .Seshat. 19:28, February 8, 2011 (UTC)

Re:Bureaucrats Rights
i made you a 'crat, so please use your powers wisely 'kay. ^_^

Lenalee Lee page
http://dgrayman.wikia.com/wiki/User:Lenaleechan

This person has, in just a short amount of time, completely destroyed the Lenalee Lee page. Can you undo the damage they've done? Also, I'd like to request that they be blocked without warning. This kind of blatant vandalism clearly isn't something this person feels any remorse for, and if they can't respect work people on this site have been building up for years, then they don't deserve to have editing rights to this site.

I'm sorry if I seem unusually harsh... This isn't a pleasant thing to wake up to in the morning. .Seshat. 14:08, February 9, 2011 (UTC)

Thank you, and I'm sorry that this is one of the first things you have to see after you've just logged back in. This is just a fine example of one of the times that Wikipedia's "Anyone can edit" idea blows up in our faces. .Seshat. 14:24, February 9, 2011 (UTC)

When the former user Lenaleechan moved Lenalee's page, they also moved her talk page. The Lenalee Lee talk page has been redirected to here: Talk:Mikaela patanao. How would I undo that? .Seshat. 18:03, February 9, 2011 (UTC)

Thankyouthankyouthankyou!
Yes I know I forgot the spaces, but I'm just THAT happy you fixed the Lenalee page. I may not be a serious editor (I generally edit out grammar mistakes and the like, since I'm not that experienced), but I do appreciate the work that's done on here. Heck, I would've let you know myself if my computer battery hadn't died. Stuff like that is just so... ugh, there are no words. At least, not ones I could use in a polite conversation.

17:11, February 9, 2011 (UTC)

Administrative request
^.^ Thank you for taking care of the Lenalee Lee talk page. May I ask one more thing of you? The problems with vandalism (today's example being forefront at the moment) have made me aware of how little power I have when people vandalize, especially when they do one vandalism on a page after another and make it impossible for regular users to undo it without requesting administrative help.

I was wondering if I could be granted rollback permission. I always have the Recent Activity page open so I can keep an eye on the changes non-regular users make to the wiki, but if I leave for a while and come back to find vandals have made multiple abuses on one page, there's only so much I can do to correct it without opening a new tab and doing a side-by-side comparison as to what changes the vandals made, and I'm starting to feel guilty for filling your talk page with requests for vandalism correction.

I would still, of course, come to you or one of the other admins for any help I need, but if I had rollback permission guarding the pages would be much easier for everyone involved. I appreciate your consideration... .Seshat. 19:22, February 9, 2011 (UTC)

Thank you very much~ .Seshat. 22:05, February 9, 2011 (UTC)

Sorry to bother you but how did you put the picture of Allen with the crown on top of the page ?

Spotlight Request
Hi. D.Grayman Wiki looks really good and I will add it to the approved spotlights list. One request; would you consider changing the link color to a slightly lighter gray? I find it very hard to read at the current color. Even a few shades lighter would help immensely. -- Wendy (talk ) 03:54, February 12, 2011 (UTC)


 * Also I'll pass along your suggested image to the people who create the spotlight graphics. But they have the final say on what to use and what not to use. They do generally take an image from the wiki even if the one you suggested won't work. -- Wendy (talk ) 03:59, February 12, 2011 (UTC)

Hi one more question. How did you become the admin of this wiki. I would like to become the admin of one other wiki but I don't know how to. This wiki's admin is not very active. DSM144

Spoiler warning
I know it stands to reason that, because this is a wiki, there will be spoilers, but shouldn't there be some sort of warning for people who are visiting for the first time and can't put "wiki" and "spoiler" together in the same equation? I know some manga sites, like the Bleach wiki, have had problems in the past where people visit an article, read spoiler information, and then complain about having the series ruined for them, and even though I don't think we've had that problem yet, it's still better to be prepared than to have someone who would overreact stumble across us, get extremely angry, and then complain to the main Wikia community.

We wouldn't have to put warnings everywhere; just on the main page should suffice. Like, right below the "follow us on Facebook" link and above the "D.Gray Man Cast" box.

It would simply have to say something like "Warning: This wiki contains an abundance of spoilers related to the D.Gray-Man series, including information from chapters not yet released in tankōbon format. There will be spoilers. Read at your own risk." .Seshat. 22:47, February 16, 2011 (UTC)

Generals page
^.^ Thank you for acting on my spoiler warning suggestion. Could I possibly ask for something else? When I redid the Black Order page, I added new categories, including the Structure subsection of the Organization section, and under this subsection I gave an overview of the General title, even though there is already a Generals page.

The Generals page, though, was made back when there wasn't enough information on the individual Generals and thus did not have their own pages, and reading the Generals page now... It's a bit useless. When I gave an overview of the generals on the Black Order page, I did it with a lot less redundancy, and the General title doesn't really have enough information for it to merit its own page. Basically, the page is a waste of space. Could we delete it? .Seshat. 19:15, February 17, 2011 (UTC)

^.^ Thank you~. .Seshat. 19:38, February 17, 2011 (UTC)

o.o' Sorry, but could you do this page, too? Grand Generals Jeez, people really did add so many useless pages.... .Seshat. 19:44, February 17, 2011 (UTC)

My apologies for making your talk page nothing but a page of deletion requests, but could you also delete the Heart of Innocence page? The information was just copypasted from the Innocence page, nothing is referenced, and we don't have enough information on the Heart for it to have it's own page. Thank you. .Seshat. 05:41, February 19, 2011 (UTC)

I have an question
I've been thinking - since you seems like a person who can do stuff like this

could you be able to make an notification/template similar to the article stub but warning about of serious lack of references?

I find it frustrating that the minor character (like Link, Emilia, Timothy etc.) has like every sentence(sometimes almost every word) properly referenced but such characters like Kanda, Allen, Lavi etc. have none so to speak - maybe such notification will mobilize some users to sort the informations given.

--Wszemir 11:42, February 26, 2011 (UTC)

Re:Re:I have an question
Thank you! I'm counting on you then :)

--Wszemir 14:43, February 26, 2011 (UTC)

User block request
I'd like to ask that the anonymous contributor 112.204.145.158 be blocked for vandalism done to the Allen Walker page. Please and thank you. .Seshat. 22:50, February 28, 2011 (UTC)

Could you also block anonymous contributor 95.133.53.45? They tried to destroy the Index Forum. .Seshat. 04:23, March 1, 2011 (UTC)

Will you please block anonymous contributor 180.190.234.60? They have been changing the information on For's page despite me leaving an explanation on their talk page as to why 'Fou' is incorrect, and they've also removed the "reference lack" stamp from the page. .Seshat. 15:04, March 5, 2011 (UTC)

Page deletion request
Sorry to disturb you, but could you delete the God page? It has absolutely no content, and we have nothing to fill it with. .Seshat. 01:55, March 2, 2011 (UTC)

Thank you very much~. ^.^ There was one other thing I needed to talk to you about... I've been going over the Gray Ark Fan Book a lot lately (been researching the specific names of character abilities and stringing together the proper Japanese characters to put on the pages), and the correct way to spell D.Gray-Man is actually with a lowercase 'm'... So, it should be D.Gray-man. Would it be possible to change that so that's what's displayed on the bar at the top of the internet window when people open it? .Seshat. 08:11, March 2, 2011 (UTC)

^.^ Thank you~. .Seshat. 08:18, March 2, 2011 (UTC)

Thank you for taking care of my List of Characters page request~. I have another page deletion request... Could you delete the Headquarters page? It doesn't serve any actual purpose, and it's just taking up space. Thank you~. .Seshat. 04:32, March 7, 2011 (UTC)

New character template
Could you make a new character template specifically for Akuma? The main difference it would have from the regular character templates would be that it would display the level of the Akuma in question, as well as the names of the two humans that were used to make them (Like even though Marc's Akuma is simplified to be called Marc, Claire was also used to make it). It'd still need all of the other things, though, like blood type, voice actors in English and Japanese, appearance in the anime and manga... .Seshat. 01:45, March 3, 2011 (UTC)

( And could you also block the anonymous user 180.193.168.5? They vandalized the Allen Walker page, then undid it like no one would notice, but vandalism is still vandalism. .Seshat. 14:29, March 3, 2011 (UTC) ) Ah, I see you already took care of it. ^.^' Thanks. .Seshat. 14:38, March 3, 2011 (UTC)

Thank you very much~. .Seshat. 14:41, March 3, 2011 (UTC)

Hi. If you want you can use this image for the background. Just an idea, don't have to use it if you don't like it :) This is some exorcist sign. Took it from the D.Gray-Man calendar.



^.^ Thank you. Could you do one other thing for me? Could you add the option 'Species' to all of the current character templates we're using? Cococrash was asking me about it the other day, and I find I kind of agree with them on this... .Seshat. 15:53, March 5, 2011 (UTC)

^.^ Thank you~. .Seshat. 17:20, March 5, 2011 (UTC)

Template help
^.^' I'm sorry to be flooding you with template requests... but could you help me, please? A while ago, I asked you how to make templates, and then I tried to make one of my own... And I failed. Miserably. I thought I'd done it right, but... eh-heh, it just doesn't want to work. ^.^' The template I was trying to make is here; it was something I wanted to put on the pages of the separate Black Order Branches (like Asia Branch) to act as an infobox for basic information. Could you please help me make it work? Or, if it won't work, could you delete it?

Again, I'm sorry to bug you with this... but you're the only one I can ask. (bows) Thank you for your time. .Seshat. 20:26, March 5, 2011 (UTC)

Thank you so much~. .Seshat. 20:33, March 5, 2011 (UTC)

List of Characters page
Hello~. On the List of Characters page, could you possibly change the colored heads on the tables to a lighter or darker shade of blue? Because the links are blue, the color of the tables makes it difficult to read when words are linked. .Seshat. 00:01, March 6, 2011 (UTC)

Page block request
Would you mind blocking the Noah Family page so that only registered users can edit it? I've been having a lot of problems recently with anons adding speculative information and changing the names of the Noah to fan translated material... .Seshat. 13:24, March 11, 2011 (UTC)

^.^ Thank you~. .Seshat. 18:53, March 11, 2011 (UTC)

Drop down menu on the top...
Could you possibly add the List of Characters page to the D.Gray-man section of the drop down menu at the top of the page? It seems odd it has links for the Male, Female, Akuma, Exorcist, Black Order and Noah Family characters without it having the actual List of Characters page with them... Please and thank you~. ^.^ .Seshat. 07:15, March 12, 2011 (UTC)

Character templates
There are a few categories on the personality sections of the fanbook profiles that only apply to certain characters (for example, instead of having Rescue like Allen does, Kanda has Supportive Role). If I send you a list of these specific character personality options, would you mind putting them on the character templates? .Seshat. 18:59, March 14, 2011 (UTC)

I know you've made templates for the Black Order characters and Noah Family characters and Akuma, but I can't seem to remember if you made any for regular characters... This is the one I've been using: Template:Charbox. Did you make a better one that I just can't think of? Or, if you haven't, could you possibly fix this one up a little so it doesn't do things like display empty categories? ^.^' My apologies, this one is just a little messy... .Seshat. 02:42, March 18, 2011 (UTC)

When you finish coding the Charbox template, will all of the information that was filled in on the pages it was used for before come back? When you didn't finish when you started, the information disappeared, and now no one can add information when they put the template on a new page... .Seshat. 04:34, March 22, 2011 (UTC)

Aaaah, I see... ^.^ Well, thank you for finishing it~. .Seshat. 16:33, March 22, 2011 (UTC)

Can you help me?
Hi, my name is DancePowderer. I am an admin over on the One Piece wikia. I left this message on Nick D Wolfwood's talk page, but he doesn't seem to be very active at the moment, so I am coming to you. We are considering getting a One Piece wikia facebook page and it was brought to our attention that this wikia already has one. I have looked at the page and I must say it looks very nice. There are two big issues the users on the wikia have, privacy and vandalism, which brings me to why I am here. Would you please tell me if you noticed an increase in vandalism on the wikia after you launched the facebook page? Also, some users are afraid that they won't be able to edit or take part in the page without revealing personal information, ie their real name and basically access to their profile. I do not believe that a person's username and real name can be connected to one another unless that person outright says what their username is, like if I left a comment saying "I am DancePowderer." Is that correct? I am sorry to bother you with this and I thank you for your time. You can respond to me on my talk page here, or, if you wish, on my talk page on the One Piece wikia, link http://onepiece.wikia.com/wiki/User_talk:DancePowderer. Once again I thank you for your time in this matter. 23:26, March 23, 2011 (UTC)

Thank You
Thank you for your help and input. It will be very useful when we get the page going. 15:09, March 24, 2011 (UTC)

Noah character box template...
There seems to be something wrong with the Noah character box template; the information is filled out correctly on Allen Walker's page, but when it displays it it displays his height underneath both height and weight (even though when you go to edit the content of the box, the weight is entered correctly). Would that be something wrong with the coding?

Also, the Featured Article poll ends today... How do we close that and start up the new one? .Seshat. 17:01, March 31, 2011 (UTC)

^.^ Thank you~. .Seshat. 17:18, March 31, 2011 (UTC)

Logo
Hi, did you make the logo for the wikia? If so, could you please make a logo for the Ao no Exorcist wikia. I am having some problems with it (the correct size and to be transparent).

Wikia Anime on Twitter
Hello, I'm Kate from the Wikia Content team. We are trying to create a WikiaAnime Twitter group, where all of the amazing wikis can come together and share their most exciting information, and hopefully get a lot of new users! To join, all you need to do is post this Twitter button and tweet list on your main page.



Then you can visit the Anime Twitter Suggestions Page and post tweets you'd like to see, with links back to your wiki.

Please share this with your other members and admins and see if it's something they'd be interested in joining! Let me know if you have any questions, and we hope to see you there!

Kate.moon 21:24, April 5, 2011 (UTC)

Oooh, a more or less automated message... Hi, ProGamer~. ^.^' I may as well leave my opinion here... I'm not interested in doing this. I know you have several other wikis on your hand, so I don't know about you, but I don't really see the point in going to another wiki to make a suggestion that may or may not go up on a Twitter (or, as I call it, Facebook for people with ADHD) account that's just for the wiki anime hub, in general. I can't see this possibly garnering any more attention for us than our Facebook already has, and come on, if you Google search "D.Gray-man", even without adding the "wiki" part, we're the third result (the picture results aside).

If we were going to do something like this, I'd prefer that we have our own wiki Twitter that the anime hub could link others to if they so saw fit, but like I posted above, Twitter is just a Facebook for people who don't care to pay attention to posts for longer than a few words. I, personally, don't use Twitter, and I have no interest in using it. We have a Facebook that we can control, and we can talk to people on there in a much more in-depth way, and we can do it without having to go to a go-between suggestion page.

And our Facebook page has, what, 614 Likes on it? And that might have led to 30 or so people who don't even contribute joining? No, I'd say we're pretty set for attention; people who are actually going to make worthwhile contributions aren't going to find us through a site that people usually post on using text speak. They'll find us while they're trying to Google search information on one of the D.Gray-man characters and come up with one of our character bio pages as a result. .Seshat. 22:10, April 5, 2011 (UTC)

Seshat, Actually all the suggestions you make for DGrayman will get tweeted by me :) If you make a D.Gray-man Twitter that's great; this is actually for all of the anime wikis as a community as well as your wiki. By putting it on the mainpage, it really helps all the wikis; the tweets have been getting re-tweeted and featured in several posts like paper.li newsletters. Also it really does help with page views.

I hope all the admins will at least consider the option, it's been working out really well for other anime wikis!

 * I have no idea where i can put it?? But I don't know sure about adding it either. ProGamerP9 (Userpage ⁝ Talk) 06:27, April 6, 2011 (UTC)

If you like, we can do a trial run and see how you like it. I know your wiki is doing really well but I think it's a good way to attract users/bring traffic/raise awareness!

Thanks! Kate.moon 21:08, April 15, 2011 (UTC)

Thanks! I've noticed all the work you do around several anime wikis I really appreciate your support! ;) Don't hesitate to let me know if you'd like me to tweet something for your wikis! http://community.wikia.com/wiki/Community_Central_talk:Content_Team/WikiaAnime_Twitter_Suggestions?cb=9431

Sorry, I meant to place this here and not on the Magico wiki, but yes, I'd be happy to tweet about all 3 of them, they're looking amazing. I recently did tweet about Kaminomi and Dgrayman. I'll add Magico to my to-tweet list.

^.^ Again, welcome back~! .Seshat. 18:59, April 22, 2011 (UTC)

Request for background
Hi ProGamerP9. The wiki is in great shape, so I'm here to help design a new background image. Did you have any image(s) in mind that you wanted to be used? A quick Google image search lead me to this image, which would be fairly easy to work with. I could display Allen and Lenalee on the left side and the rest on the right. I made a quick preview that you can view here. On the finished version, I would put a smooth color fade on the left, right, and bottom edges.

Which leads to my next question: what color do you want the background to use? If you like that preview and want to use it, just let me know what bg color you like and I'll put the finishing touches on it and upload it here. Again, if you have another image you'd rather use, link me to it and I'll get to work on that. I just put together that preview using that image I found because it was easy to use.

 * Glad you liked the image. I put a fade to black on the edges and just uploaded it. If you'd like to make the image stay on the screen when you scroll (some people prefer it), just copy/paste this code to MediaWiki:Wikia.css:

body { background-attachment: fixed; }

Black Order Character Navbox
Hi, I was thinking about reorganizing Template:Black Order Characters Nav and .Seshat. said I should run it by you. I was thinking of making it look something like this. Is that okay with you? I'm also open to any suggestions. --DreamPunk 17:48, May 10, 2011 (UTC)

re:Facebook
The overall group consensus seems to be against the page, so I don't think we're going to go through with it, as much as I'd like to. I appreciate all your help in the matter. If for some reason, we decide to go through with the page, you'll be the first to know. Thanks again. 16:49, May 12, 2011 (UTC)

Re: Watch Out!
Gotcha. Thanks for the heads up. .Seshat. 21:32, May 18, 2011 (UTC)

Re: Yo
It doesn't seem to be working... Did you remember to Like the DGM wiki Facebook? .Seshat. 19:30, May 21, 2011 (UTC)

Got it~! ^.^ .Seshat. 19:40, May 21, 2011 (UTC)

Oh, yeah, I've got things covered. We haven't had much traffic recently, anyway, and we probably won't until the next chapter comes out, so I'm pretty sure I can handle it. ^.^ Have fun with your other projects, ne? .Seshat. 19:45, May 21, 2011 (UTC)

Will do~. Actually, could you maybe do me one favor? ^.^' Could you archive my talk page again? I still can't do that properly... .Seshat. 19:48, May 21, 2011 (UTC)

Thank you very much~. .Seshat. 19:54, May 21, 2011 (UTC)

Featured Article
Yo~! Just wanted to remind you that it's the end of the month, and the new featured character is Link... As for the CROW (I think that's your question at the bottom of the page, isn't it?), just do the Third Exorcists (Madarao, Tewaku, Goushi, Tokusa, and Kireidori) but leave Link out, since, technically, he isn't a CROW anymore. .Seshat. 00:15, June 1, 2011 (UTC)

Heya~. ^.^ End of the month again, and this month's winner is Tewaku. For the Equipment-types, I was thinking we'd just stick with the main ones: Kanda, Lavi, Bookman, Miranda, Cross... I would include Lenalee, but she's not really an equipment type anymore... .Seshat. 17:10, July 1, 2011 (UTC)

New templates
Hey~, long time no see! ^.^ I noticed you'd made some new templates for the Black Order/Noah characters... Are we going to be switching all of the appropriate characters over to these new templates? .Seshat. 14:56, June 27, 2011 (UTC)

Gotcha~. On the new templates, though, are you going to code the personal statistics (Battle Ability, Education, etc.) sections back into them, or should those be put elsewhere? .Seshat. 15:01, June 27, 2011 (UTC)

Understood~. .Seshat. 15:06, June 27, 2011 (UTC)

Chapter 1
^.^' I'd kinda been redoing the first chapter, myself, before you changed the synopsis... Can I revert it to the way it was and insert the summary I wrote? It's a bit more... in-depth. .Seshat. 16:16, June 27, 2011 (UTC)

Ah... Okay. .Seshat. 16:19, June 27, 2011 (UTC)

Can I post the summary I did and show it to you? .Seshat. 16:20, June 27, 2011 (UTC)

I posted the summary I did on the chapter's talk page; it uses words, phrases and quotes from the VIZ translations, but the appropriate name translations from the D.Gray-man -Gray Ark- Fan Book. .Seshat. 16:25, June 27, 2011 (UTC)

So it's too thorough? .Seshat. 17:53, June 27, 2011 (UTC)

^.^' Nothing; sorry, I misread you in your last message. .Seshat. 17:59, June 27, 2011 (UTC)

I'll just start with Chapter 1 and go all the way through, checking/rewriting/creating as I go. It'll take a while, but if I bounce around from chapter to chapter it'll become too confusing and mind-numbing and I won't be able to finish. .Seshat. 18:02, June 27, 2011 (UTC)

^.^ Right. .Seshat. 18:07, June 27, 2011 (UTC)

Re: Infobox Templates
I did edit with the infoboxes, but I only edited them so the appropriate categories would appear on the pages on which they are used (i.e. the "Episodes" category to the episode infobox). I only did this with the intention of making searching easier; I sincerely apologize if this was out of line. --DreamPunk 10:38, July 8, 2011 (UTC)

Um...
On your future plans on your user page... you said you're going to "remove all references"... What do you mean by that? .Seshat. 23:26, July 9, 2011 (UTC)

Alright... Because removing the references isn't something I agree with at all. I'm not sure what you mean by "messy," because if references are handled properly they can be immeasurably useful and actually be used to keep things tidy, but references are the only thing that keeps our information from being interpreted as fanfiction. Without references to back up things that are posted, people can just write anything and say it's true. If we don't have references in the articles, then the article talk pages will just end up getting filled with people arguing about pieces of information they don't agree on; all it would spell out for the future would be an endless barrage of edit wars that would never happen if things stayed referenced. Like the disagreement I had with a user previously about Timothy Hearst's Innocence being equipment or parasitic; the user was only able to prove their point using a reference that I had no access to. .Seshat. 23:36, July 9, 2011 (UTC)

I'm afraid I don't understand what you mean... You want to remove the references, just to add them back later? The reference information isn't going to change insofar as where it is located in the manga, and the contents of most of the pages are already written in sequential order. Taking the references away just to add them back later, would just be a waste of time... .Seshat. 23:48, July 9, 2011 (UTC)

If the information is essentially going to be the same, it would be a waste of time. How do you plan on remodeling the character pages? .Seshat. 23:53, July 9, 2011 (UTC)

I know; that's why I'm trying to understand. It worries me when you start to make major changes to things without telling me what's going on; the layout of the character pages is something that was decided by admins before us, and it's the same layout that much more successful manga wikis use. I don't think the page layouts should change. .Seshat. 23:58, July 9, 2011 (UTC)

Then if the Plot and History sections are going to be the same, and the Appearance, Personality and other things are going to be essentially the same, simply reworded, I don't see why all of the references would have to be removed. I mean, if a line were going to be rewritten in a way that the reference would change to that of another page, I could see that, but if they're just being reworded, the information would still be on the same page. .Seshat. 00:16, July 10, 2011 (UTC)

Well, first you said you were going to remove all of the references, then you said you were going to completely redesign the character pages (which made me think you had come up with some entirely new layout). I don't mean "the information would be on the same page" as in the wiki. I mean, if you're going to reword a sentence and the reference will still point to the same page in the manga, I don't see why the reference has to be removed at all. .Seshat. 00:23, July 10, 2011 (UTC)

Ah... Alright. Well, if, in the future, you do get the idea cemented and you decide to try it out, would you mind showing me what it would look like before you start overhauling pages? Please? .Seshat. 00:28, July 10, 2011 (UTC)

Okay... .Seshat. 00:34, July 10, 2011 (UTC)
