Fascinating edit

Following around your edits, I'm totally fascinated. You're completely obsessed with perceived exploitation and negative portrayals of fictional female characters, especially lesbian exploitation. Why? Also, you were snarky to me on my talk page, so I replied in due snark, and then further lowered myself with another note on your talk page, and your response was very impressive and humbling. Then you suddenly add a very cryptic line to your user page and blank your talk page. I'm riveted. -- AvatarMN 10:05, 2 September 2007 (UTC)Reply

Well, I admire your concern. But I notice you're directing it mostly at fiction instead of reality, with a curious interest in girl-on-girl behavior. I wonder what that means. I can't tell if you like lesbians or not, your opposition to identifying Poison Ivy as bisexual is curious. I also wonder if you're qualified. You're male, so lack an certain intimate conenction to the subject matter that would be an advantage; and you're very young, so lack the experience that leads to insight and understanding, too. My edits will show a lot of subjects that touch on LGBT related content, but I'm a 32-year-old LGBT person who keeps abreast of the issues with a lot of reading and such, so I pretty much know what I'm talking about. Another thing you're doing wrong is coming at it from a very emotional, unsubstantiated angle; I can tell you right now that your new "portrayal of women in video games" article is not going to survive long. It's nothing but opinion and original research. It's contentious stuff that you're going to have to back up with the sources, and I wonder if you really know enough about it. For example, you argued that Storm's eyes have not always been blue, which is completely false. Do you often put in content that you don't actually know is fact? Misogyny is the main focus of your interests in editing Wikipedia, and you didn't know how it was spelled. Do you really think you're ready for this? -- AvatarMN 20:06, 2 September 2007 (UTC)Reply

You're focussing on my credibility instead of what I've written, which goes against the basic principle of this site. This isn't the free encyclopedia that anyone can edit as long as they have no opinions. Another misdirected focus is being put on the fact that the content of the article I just started isn't up to standard. To say that an article whose subject matter has importance (and precedent in the form of the analogous comics article) shouldn't exist because of its current state is ridiculous.

No, I have addressed several specific things you've written, though I then went on to speculate on your credibility/ability and motivation, using them as examples. Maybe that's out of line, I don't know. And despite my efforts to help, the portrayal of women in video games article is going down in flames on it's AFD, as I predicted. -- AvatarMN 04:02, 4 September 2007 (UTC)Reply

Bat Villains edit

I'll do my best to chip in if you want to use the Bat-villain Talk Page to suggest some revisions, but I fear that the sensible/sweeping/controversial changes that have been suggested many-a-time will not happen without razor-sharp sources and a lot of willpower! And sources are few and far between - and when I found several, they were picked apart, ignored or stating the obvious... Still, let me know if more comes of this. :o) ntnon (talk) 21:15, 12 January 2009 (UTC)Reply

Well if you source it, I can guarantee you that it won't be reverted ;) Lord Sesshomaru (talkedits) 23:46, 24 January 2009 (UTC)Reply

Proposed deletion of Items in the Mario series edit

 

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Items in the Mario series, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process because of the following concern:

WP:NOT a game guide, previous article on a similar topic was deleted, see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Items in Super Mario Bros.

All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because, even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. shoy (reactions) 06:00, 17 May 2009 (UTC)Reply

Batman edit

Hi, Agx7. I'm sure that the current intention for the main continuity DC Universe comic books is for Dick Grayson to be Batman for a while; perhaps even for a few years. However, there are three arguments against mentioning this in the lead of the article: one, in every other presentation of the character (including many currently published DC comics, such as Batman/Superman and All Star Batman and Robin) Batman will continue to be Bruce Wayne. Second, there have been times in the past when other characters have become Batman for a period (Jean-Paul Valley, Dick Grayson for a while before), and it always reverts to Bruce Wayne. And third, the article introduction should describe the character as he has appeared in 99% of Batman stories, and not give undue weight to recent developments. It's appropriate to mention the current status with Dick as Batman later in the article (you'll note that I didn't remove your addition under the "characterization" section), but not in the article's lead. In an overview of the 70-year history of Batman, Batman is Bruce Wayne and the current DC Universe storyline isn't that relevant. —Josiah Rowe (talkcontribs) 05:14, 31 May 2009 (UTC)Reply
