[The_Smashor]

Would it be possible to make catagories for the Sumeragi and Eden groups from Gunvolt, similar to the likes of La Squadra and Nanto Rokusei Ke?

 

[Antvasima]

I suppose that seems fine, as long as you specify that they are referring to the Gunvolt verse. For example: "Eden (Gunvolt)"

 

[Gewsbumpz_dude]

Possible answer here?

 

[Antvasima]

I replied.

 

[ChocomilkAlex]

I think One Piece's Supporters tab is locked. Can someone add me to that please?

 

[Skalt711]

One Piece verse page is not locked

 

[ExodusNexus]

Vahi and Ignika need the Masks category

 

[Antvasima]

I added it.

 

[ChocomilkAlex]

One Piece verse page is not locked

lol nvm I'm on mobile, but I think Dragon Ball's is locked

 

[Elizhaa]

One Piece verse page is not locked

lol nvm I'm on mobile, but I think Dragon Ball's is locked

It is also unlocked. You just need to use source editor to make to make edit on the section like Supporters, Opponents, Neutral section

 

[ChocomilkAlex]

Ok, gotcha. Thank you!

 

[Elizhaa]

You are welcomeƒæì!

Can Where's Waldo? have its name changed to Where's Wally?, as that is the unlocalised name for it? Waldo will need his name changed accordingly.

 

[Antvasima]

I think that he seems more well known as Waldo, but I can create redirect pages for "Where's Wally?" and "Wally".

 

[Mindovin]

As Portal Users category already exist and in use so https://vsbattles.fandom.com/wiki/Categoryortal_Creation is redundant and unnecessary so it should be deleted.

I removed / change the category with the correct one from every page it used already.

 

[Antvasima]

I think that he seems more well known as Waldo, but I can create redirect pages for "Where's Wally?" and "Wally".

I have done so.

 

[Antvasima]

@Mindovin

Thank you for helping out.

Me and Promestein each have a Bot account that can handle category renaming via automatised scripts though.

 

[Damage3245]

Speaking about unnecessary categories, this category needs to be removed from the pages it is still on: https://vsbattles.fandom.com/wiki/Category:Insect_Users

 

[Antvasima]

Why is it unnecessary?

 

[Mindovin]

@Ant

https://vsbattles.fandom.com/wiki/Category:Perception_Manipulation_Users characters who use this should be change

to https://vsbattles.fandom.com/wiki/Category:Perception_Users.

I think some pages has both of them like https://vsbattles.fandom.com/wiki/Aquaman_(Post-Crisis).

 

[Antvasima]

Okay. I will handle it.

 

[Antvasima]

@Mindovin

Done.

@Damage3245

Never mind. I will handle it.

 

[Damage3245]

@Antvasima; thanks for handling it. I wasn't able to answer your question in time, but I was just going to say that the category was already deleted.

 

[Antvasima]

No problem.

 

[The_God_Of_Procrastination]

I think that he seems more well known as Waldo, but I can create redirect pages for "Where's Wally?" and "Wally".

Is "more well known" enough?

 

[Antvasima]

Well, the redirects that I created should be enough to find him during searches in any case.

 

[Mindovin]

https://vsbattles.fandom.com/wiki/Category:Hacking is unnecesarry when we have https://vsbattles.fandom.com/wiki/Category:Hackers

 

[Antvasima]

I will fix it.

 

[Elizhaa]

Is alright if unlocked the Shin Megami Tensei Tier 2 profiles that don't have Tier 1 rating? The last time in the tier 2's unlocking thread that unlocked most of the uncontroversial Tier 2 profiles, I was against the majority of Shin Megami Tensei's pages being unlocked because many were under revision but currently the revisions are roughly done now.

 

[KnightOfSunlight]

SMT is a bit too controversial imo. Though, I'm not a mod so.

 

[Elizhaa]

From my opinions and I think some supporters' opinions, the verse is not that controversial but I am willing to wait for inputs on the subject.

So just there is no confusion on the matter as this point just came up, I will unlock many the pages temporarily as I got a request about about opening them from an accepted CRT.

So, the topic of the non-tier 1 pages being unlocked is still up for debate.

 

[Mindovin]

https://vsbattles.fandom.com/wiki/Category:Forcefield_Creation

is unnecesarry because of this:

https://vsbattles.fandom.com/wiki/Category:Forcefield_Users

 

[Antvasima]

@Elizhaa

I am not sure. The tier 2 SMT pages may be too controversial to keep open, but perhaps I am overly cautious. More staff input would be appreciated.

 

[Antvasima]

@Mindovin

I will fix it.

Edit: It was already handled.

 

[Walker21232123]

Close this because it done.

 

[Elizhaa]

@Elizhaa

Alright, I think I can contact some staffs, in general, later today or tomorrow.

 

[Antvasima]

@Walker

Done, but that isn't the sort of thing that you should ask here.

 

[Mindovin]

https://vsbattles.fandom.com/wiki/Category:Time_Manipulation we have Time Users for it.

https://vsbattles.fandom.com/wiki/Category:Toons we have Toon Force Characters for it.

Also, we need Transdual Characters category. Can bot add the category automatically to the pages who have transduality or it needs to be handled manually?

 

[Bobsican]

Why do we have a category for Game Characters AND a category for Video Game Characters?

I think the latter should be merged with the former, or the latter getting a description to make it clearly different.

Also, a similar issue happens with Negation Users and Power Nullification Users

 

[Walker21232123]

Game characters can be card game, video game, and board game can fix in there

 

[Bobsican]

Then the description on it probably could be more specific to mention that

Also, there´s still the other issue with the Negation/Power Null categories

 

[Crazylatin77]

@Bobsican I handled it.

 

[Antvasima]

https://vsbattles.fandom.com/wiki/Category:Time_Manipulation we have Time Users for it.

https://vsbattles.fandom.com/wiki/Category:Toons we have Toon Force Characters for it.

My automated script handled it.

 

[Antvasima]

Also, a similar issue happens with Negation Users and Power Nullification Users

Negation seems to be a wider concept. Also, both are very large categories, so they shouldn't be replaced without very thorough consideration, and strictly handled by a bot if it is deemed absolutely necessary.

 

[Damage3245]

The 12 profiles in this category: https://vsbattles.fandom.com/wiki/Category:Intangible_Characters need the category changed to https://vsbattles.fandom.com/wiki/Category:Intangibility_Users

 

[Antvasima]

I will fix it.

 

[Bobsican]

Negation seems to be a wider concept. Also, both are very large categories, so they shouldn't be replaced without very thorough consideration, and strictly handled by a bot if it is deemed absolutely necessary.

Negation redirects to Power Nullification, and considering "Power Nullification Users" is far more used because of the sheer name contrary to what you would otherwise think, I think it would be a good idea to just merge the former to the latter with a bot.

 

[Antvasima]

You can ask Promestein if she is willing to replace the Negation Users category with Power Nullification Users. I am currently very busy and going to bed soon.

 

[Bobsican]

Very well, thanks for the input.

 

[Ultima_Reality]

@Elizhaa

I am not sure. The tier 2 SMT pages may be too controversial to keep open, but perhaps I am overly cautious. More staff input would be appreciated.

I don't think SMT is that controversial; At most I can see YHVH continuing locked, and even then, he is a Tier 1 page, so that'd happen anyways.

 

[Antvasima]

@Ultima

Okay. That is probably fine then.

 

[KnightOfSunlight]

I would like to have this page reviewed before creation, as the weapon's previous page was deleted for unknown reasons.

If this page is accepted, it would apply to all COG Gears of War profiles

 

[Bobsican]

By the way, just contacted Prom, she took care of the Power Null category issue already

 

[Elizhaa]

I would say you can still improved the pages following the Common Editing Mistakes guideline as some mistakes are present. Scorching a large portion of a planet's surface is usually at High 6-A; if it calculation is not possible, it think it would good to a scan, video linka or Statements providing the justifications for the High 6-A feat- this point may be nitpicky.

Otherwise, the page looks fine.

 

[Elizhaa]

@Ultima

The Hammer of Dawn Counterattack is a well known event in the Gears of War verse. To get exact and actual quotes and statements would require me to find or make scans of Jacinto's Remnant, which I don't have currently (I did have the book, but lost it during a move)

 

[Antvasima]

By the way, just contacted Prom, she took care of the Power Null category issue already

Thanks.

 

[Antvasima]

Only the tier 2 SMT pages in that case. Although it is probably simpler if I handle it with my automated script.

 

[Antvasima]

I have handled it.

 

[Elizhaa]

Alright, thanks you, Antvasimaƒæì

 

[Antvasima]

No problem.

 

[Mindovin]

https://vsbattles.fandom.com/wiki/Category:Mothers

https://vsbattles.fandom.com/wiki/Category:Fathers

I think they are unnecessary because of this:

https://vsbattles.fandom.com/wiki/Category:Parents

 

[Antvasima]

You can ask Promestein if she agrees and is willing to handle it.

 

[Bobsican]

I think the category Healers should be merged to the Healing Users category

Both cover the exact same ability, as you could guess.

 

[Walker21232123]

Healers category is make by this guy

 

[Bobsican]

And...?

 

[Walker21232123]

Ask him about it.

 

[Bobsican]

It´s obviously a basic category, "Healers" was aroudn first, before than "Healing Users", but because of that, the former has far more pages indexed, so I´m not sure to which of the two it should be merged, but because of the "standard" sort of name, I would go with just merging the former with the latter.

 

[Damage3245]

I believe the Healing Users category shjould be merged into Healers.

 

[Bobsican]

I agree, one thing for sure is that one of them has to be merged to the other with a bot.

 

[Gewsbumpz_dude]

Can this page be renamed to "Graveyard Residence (Goosebumps)"

 

[Elizhaa]

^^ I handled it.

 

[Gewsbumpz_dude]

thanks

 

[Elizhaa]

I agree, one thing for sure is that one of them has to be merged to the other with a bot.

I agree Damage's opinions but yeah this point is more or less true.

 

[Antvasima]

I believe the Healing Users category should be merged into Healers.

Agreed. Healers is fine to keep and has a few thousand entries.

 

[Antvasima]

I moved Healing Users to Healers with my Bot account.

 

[Nemo212]

https://vsbattles.fandom.com/wiki/Haast's_eagle

Rename to Haast's Eagle.

 

[Bobsican]

While we are at it...

Could this page be renamed to "ALF (Character)"?

 

[Crazylatin77]

https://vsbattles.fandom.com/wiki/Haast's_eagle
Rename to Haast's Eagle.

Mindovin took care of it

 

[Crazylatin77]

While we are at it...

Could this page be renamed to "ALF (character)"?

But that's already the name of the page

 

[Bobsican]

But that's already the name of the page

Oops, I meant "ALF (Character)"

 

[Crazylatin77]

I handled it

 

[Gewsbumpz_dude]

Close This and This

These matchs have been concluded and the results will be added to the profiles soon

 

[Bobsican]

I moved Healing Users to Healers with my Bot account.

I think this category should be deleted too, to avoid misclicks when adding categories.

 

[Antvasima]

I cannot do anything more to remove that category than I have already done. The Fandom settings are not perfect.

 

[HeadlessKramerGeoff777]

https://vsbattles.com/vsbattles/3618588 Was still being discussed, Gewsbumpz shouldn't have asked for it to be closed.

 

[Antvasima]

I have reopened it.

 

[HeadlessKramerGeoff777]

Thank you

 

[Antvasima]

No problem.

 

[Bobsican]

I cannot do anything more to remove that category than I have already done. The Fandom settings are not perfect.

Could I ask Promestein then? I´m sure she was able to delete an empty category before.

 

[Antvasima]

That category was never created by writing in it, so it also cannot be deleted.

 

[Bobsican]

Fair enought, thanks for the input.

However, in that case, something can just be written on it so it can be deleted.

 

[Antvasima]

I suppose, but I doubt that it would cause any difference for if it is featured as an option when adding categories.

 

[Bobsican]

Well, it´s worth a try.

 

[Skalt711]

Categories themselves are independent of their pages, so it's not possible to ban the use of them or to remove the category from all the pages in one click.

 

[Antvasima]

Skalt is correct.

 

[Bobsican]

Okay then, thanks.
