Just a debate about the usual stuff edit

Not to out you, but your activites have been mentioned in a debate I conduct. As I do not want to operate behind anyone's back, I should inform you about this conversation: User_talk:Bryan_Tong_Minh#Kurdistan. Please don't take it personal ;-) Bertilvidet 13:48, 1 February 2007 (UTC)Reply

Okay, I made my comments at Category talk:Kurdistan -- Cat chi? 14:04, 1 February 2007 (UTC)

Category:Kurdistan edit

Please do not drastically change inclusion criteria and participate in the discussion under Category talk:Kurdistan. There is no logical reason I can see why we should tag airliners, squares and provinces as well as others under the same category. -- Cat chi? 03:13, 2 February 2007 (UTC)

Whose inclusion criteria? Your own? Why must you empty 90% of a category when it's already gone through sevral CfDs? Khoikhoi 03:16, 2 February 2007 (UTC)Reply

I was using the inclusion criteria on several encyclopedias as well as how we include cities and towns elsewhere on wikipedia. No sourced information provided establishes kurdistan as a cultural region. Sources I used present on the category page before you removed was: Encyclopædia Britannica, Columbia Encyclopedia, Dictionary.com. I have the option to remove any category I feel fit from an article if it has been added without a rationale on occasions by people who are banned from wikipedia such as User:Diyako
The Category going through several CfDs is irrelevant. We never categorise cities based on geographic categories. Take New York City for example. No doubt it is in North America but categorizing it like that is silly why must cities inside the geographic region Kurdistan be treated any differently?
Also for instance why must Kurdistan Airlines be inside the geographic category? Is it an article related to geography? One would be hard pressed to consider an article about a Market or a Square to be geography related.
-- Cat chi? 03:32, 2 February 2007 (UTC)

Category:Kurdistan edit

Why did you revert my edit? -- Cat chi? 03:52, 2 February 2007 (UTC)

It is accurate and it's from 2002, I don't agree with your reasoning. --Mardavich 03:57, 2 February 2007 (UTC)Reply
USSR was not around in 2002. Map makes no mention of the word "kurdistan" establishing Kurdistan as a cultural region based on a map like that falls under WP:OR. -- Cat chi? 04:02, 2 February 2007 (UTC)
Okey, I replaced the map with another one. --Mardavich 05:03, 2 February 2007 (UTC)Reply
That still is a "kurdish inhabitance" map with no mention of kurdistan. That map can be used on Kurdish people to show the ethnicities distribution. It is not an accurate representation of the geographic region. It also does not establish Kurdistan as a "cultural region". -- Cat chi? 05:07, 2 February 2007 (UTC)

List of Pokémon edit

Remarkable! -- Cat chi? 16:53, 5 February 2007 (UTC)

Something is wrong with it though. "Evolution" field does nothing. And several diamond and pearl Pokemon lack a # (I do not own the game so I am curious why). -- Cat chi? 16:56, 5 February 2007 (UTC)
So far the game is only available in Japan, and since I've not yet seen any comprehensive online Pokédexes for the new Pokémon, I can't yet number them. As for the evolution column, I myself am not completely sure as to its purpose; someone else added it at a later date. The list probably won't be complete until the US/European release of Diamond and Pearl, when the English Name and number columns can be filled. Laïka 17:30, 5 February 2007 (UTC)Reply
I am looking at sites like http://www.serebii.net/pokedex-dp/493.shtml ... The last column is for diamond and pearl and Sinnoh no is left blank there too. I am not certain but the player probably acquires national dex before being able to acquire or see the unnumbered species... This should be clarified on the list. Much like how it is on Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald -- Cat chi? 18:20, 5 February 2007 (UTC)
Um, yeah. I already said that below. And, there is already clarification on the list. Right in the intro it says “the fourth generation combined some (for the first time not all) of the 107 new creatures from Pokémon Diamond and Pearl with a number of the old ones to form the new regional Pokédex (of Sinnoh)”. --WikidSmaht (talk) 19:03, 5 February 2007 (UTC)Reply
I generally don’t intrude in other people’s conversations on the wiki, but I feel a need to make an exception here. The brilliant idea of the sortable list was Laïka’s, but I am the one who actually merged the lists and implemented the table. I created it using the old List of Pokémon by National Pokédex number and then spent several days adding the rest of the numbers. I am also the one who added the “Evolution” column. It doesn’t do nothing! It sorts Pokémon by evolution! Honestly, I thought that was pretty fucking obvious, but clearly I was mistaken; you guys are not the only ones who have had trouble figuring it out, so don’t feel bad.
What it does is insert new evolutions and pre-evolutions in the list below and above the original Pokémon, so for instance when you sort by Evolution, Pichu is before Pikachu, Crobat is after Golbat, Elekid and Elekible are respectively before and after Electabuzz, etc.. Perhaps the problem is that you don’t scroll down far enough after clicking the sort button. The first 24 Pokémon have never gotten extra evolutions or pre-evolutions, so there really is no difference from the National numbering system until you get down to the Pichu-Pikachu-Raichu line. If you have any other questions, feel free to ask them at Talk:List of Pokémon, where we are trying to solve the issue of getting people to understand the Evolution column( not on my personal talk page, please).
Oh, and to answer the question about D/P Pokémon not having numbers: For the first time, several of the new Pokémon in D/P are not included in the new( Sinnoh) regional Pokédex, and obviously they wouldn’t be in the Johto ’dex or Hoenn ’dex, so those species only have a National Pokédex number. --WikidSmaht (talk) 18:10, 5 February 2007 (UTC)Reply
Just to clarify on WikidSmaht's comments, the column contains a series of hidden numbers in the form 025a, which are arranged to allow the list to autosort. The Pokémon without numbers are legendaries caught outside the normal area. As a result, they only appear in the National Pokédex, and not the regional ones. Laïka 20:47, 5 February 2007 (UTC)Reply

Your Mediation Cabal case edit

Good Evening (GMT time); I have accepted your Mediation Cabal case - requested by yourself - on behalf of the Mediation Cabal. I am prepared to commence mediation as soon as possible. I would like to start by enquiring if you wish for mediation to be conducted at the Mediation Cabal subpage, or on the article talk page.

If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to Contact Me; I will try to answer all your questions as fully as possible in so far as it does not compromise my neutrality.

Kind regards,

Anthonycfc [TC] 20:06, 5 February 2007 (UTC)Reply
Hi we can start right away. The mediation cabal page probably will be the best location to discuss. I have already made some points prior to me requesting a mediation cabal case. Please see them at Category Talk:Kurdistan -- Cat chi? 20:43, 5 February 2007 (UTC)
I've started the mediation at the mediation case page; I invite you to contribute with regards to my request which has been posted at the bottom of the page. Once again, please do not hesitate to contact me - see my contact page for more information. Kind regards,

Mediation Cabal case Category:Kurdistan edit

Good morning (GMT time); I'd just like to ask what course of action you would like to take as a result of inactivity on behalf of every other editor at the above case. I have been respecting WP:NEHAMFTAY, but that grace period has now expired in my opinion and it is time to press on regardless of presence of other editors.

Awaiting your response,
Anthonycfc [TC] 02:26, 10 February 2007 (UTC)Reply

Good afternoon! Not sure. We can go right ahead and apply Wikipedia:Naming conventions (categories). -- Cat chi? 09:29, 10 February 2007 (UTC)

Image copyright problem on commons edit

Hi, as a commons admin, could you perhaps have a look at the contributions of commons:User:Ibrahimjon there? He's uploaded a number of images, for instance Image:Abuali Sino Avicenna.jpg, credited to a painter called "Immodinova C." and at the same time claimed to be released as "own work" - but his own real name as per his userpage doesn't match, he calls himself Ibrahimjon Rustamov there. Fut.Perf. 20:14, 11 February 2007 (UTC)Reply

Hi, it would have been better to contact me on commons. :)
I have asked him if they are his. I want to act after a defense.
-- Cat chi? 20:29, 11 February 2007 (UTC)
Sure, thanks. Your talk page over there directs one here, by the way. Oh, and I don't envy you your job with all the image copyright problems there. Just did my first day on the image deletion beat here on en today. Oufff ;-) Best, -- Fut.Perf. 21:01, 11 February 2007 (UTC)Reply

I wish to ask you to clean up this which has nothing to do with Wikipedia. The images are now are almost deleted and discussing my here is not the right way - hopefully you will delete this, otherwise I will delete or take other actions. Thanks--Ibrahimjon 15:12, 8 November 2007 (UTC)Reply

My apologies edit

Hi Cool Cat.

I do appreciate your attempt negotiate an agreement on categorization of Kurdish related articles, and I believe your attempt to find a solution through a mediation cabal is a good faith and mature way of dealing with such things. Thus, I am even more sorry not to have reacted. I have been too busy in outside-Wikipedia life lately, and as you might have noticed I have not even followed the debate. If I never intended to participate I would have told so at a much earlier stage in the process. Cheers Bertilvidet 18:04, 16 February 2007 (UTC)Reply

Help me ! edit

Could you help me at all to make a cool looking user page such as yours? I'm not very good at this... ~ UBeR 19:46, 16 February 2007 (UTC)Reply

Thank you for your nice comments. I would love to help you with your userpage, though it would be easier if you asked something a bit more spesific.
For me my userpage is more or less a sandbox where I try different designs and styles. If I like the designs, I use them on articles/templates/etc.
-- Cat chi? 13:43, 19 February 2007 (UTC)
I don't know. I tried fooling around with the code on your userpage. I was able to get the "My watchlist" in a small table (like the user box list) that was just one column, but it was messy. Having that though, with small text, and on the left side of my user page would be awesome, especially then I could write inbetween that and the userbox (so the main text is in the middle). And maybe some table or something for my awards... Not sure. Do you think you could help me out with that? I just noticed your user page and thought it was very well done. ~ UBeR 18:47, 20 February 2007 (UTC)Reply
Hi, Sorry for the somewhat late response. I'd be glad to help, but if I do all the work, I wouldn't be really helping you. :) You may want to create a few sub pages.
Could you draw me what you want on paint so I know what exactly is you want. (userpage is often a matter of taste)
-- Cat chi? 17:36, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
I understand. I tried messing around trying to get a little better. Didn't make much progress lol. I am not very fluent in this coding language ^^. But anyway, here's an example of what I'm trying to do. Not sure if you'd be able to do so, but any help would be much appreciated! ~ UBeR 19:20, 22 February 2007 (UTC)Reply
How is it now? Note that I created two sub pages for you: User:UBeR/Userboxes, User:UBeR/Watchlist -- Cat chi? 21:09, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
That's precisely it! Thank you very much! ~ UBeR 21:43, 22 February 2007 (UTC)Reply
Is there any way to make the userboxes column move down slightly, so that it is aligned? ~ UBeR 21:53, 22 February 2007 (UTC)Reply
Never mind ~ UBeR 22:03, 22 February 2007 (UTC)Reply
