Adhesivity should be Wall Crawling

[Iapitus_The_Impaler]

Looks good. Can I recommend some other people to be added to the examples list as well?

 

[Andytrenom]

Sure.

 

[Iapitus_The_Impaler]

Oudo Miyakonojou and Misaka Mikoto are both good examples

See here for all the pages that you preferably need to update: https://vsbattles.fandom.com/wiki/Special:WhatLinksHere/Surface_Scaling?namespace=0&limit=500

 

[Iapitus_The_Impaler]

We have a bot that does that right?

 

[Agnaa]

It's less than 50 pages anyway, it shouldn't be very hard to update manually.

 

[Andytrenom]

I am on it then

deep breath

 

[Agnaa]

Before we get too far into that, what should the new category be named? Surface Scaling Users or Surface Scalers?

 

[Iapitus_The_Impaler]

Surface Scalers sounds better

 

[Andytrenom]

Surface Scalers.

 

[Antvasima]

Promestein has a bot. You can ask her to handle it if you wish, but she has needed to take some time off recently.

 

[Antvasima]

Surface Scaling Users is more in line with our usual naming praxis though.

 

[Agnaa]

We have some categories like "Healers" and "Hackers".

I think when a power ends with "ing" like "Healing" the category is the power but with ing > ers, so "Healers", "Surface Scalers", "Hackers", etc.

I can't think of other examples right now, but I know that some categories do break that "{POWER} Users" trend.

 

[Agnaa]

I'm noticing some profiles (like Yanmega) don't fall under "Surface Scaling", but rather like the upcoming power "Adhesives Manipulation".

I've noted this one down but I've also changed it to surface scaling, is this the right protocol or should I delete the ability from them outright?

 

[Andytrenom]

If you find some blatant cases, delete. If you're not sure, change.

 

[Antvasima]

Promestein is usually in charge of the category naming conventions. You should ask what she thinks.

 

[Andytrenom]

I kinda already started replacing the categories tho. Sorry about that.

 

[Agnaa]

Same. I've asked her anyway.

 

[Antvasima]

Well, categories can be easily renamed with a mass-editing script.

 

[Agnaa]

WE DID IT!!!

It's meant to be adhesives manipulation, so you can probably delete it for now

 

[Agnaa]

Whenever I try to edit Vector the Crocodile, making super special care to only change Adhesivity to Surface Scaling, it deletes over 350 bytes of other data, including a gallery and random categories.

Why is this happening and can someone else undo my edits and fix this?

 

[Agnaa]

Andy, your edit seemed to do it too.

It seems like a glitch, perhaps re-add those removed categories?

 

[Andytrenom]

I rollbacked your edits and made the changes. Did it happen now as well?

 

[Agnaa]

I rollbacked your edits and made the changes. Did it happen now as well?

Yes.

 

[Antvasima]

It is due to that a previous editor added some categories above the gallery in a previous edit to the page, rather than at the bottom, as usual. As a result, the bug will happen no matter what edit that you make. You will have to re-add any missing categories manually afterwards.

[Agnaa]

I tried re-adding the removed categories but all the ones I tried were still there. It seems like the ones that were removed must have been duplicated before.

 

[Antvasima]

Well, then it should be fine as is.

 

[Agnaa]

Prome said that "Surface Scalers" is fine.

 

[Antvasima]

Okay. Then it is fine with me as well.
