Some Naruto article

Latest comment: 5 years ago4 comments2 people in discussion

Since you are a bit active I wanted to ask you something, I rearranged the final sentence of Naruto Uzumaki#Part II since I found the inclusion of Kakashi weird as he is not mentioned before. Also, all character articles are GAs so I think we can promote a topic. However, the character list might need a bit of help. I'm not how this works but I wonder if the Boruto characters could have their own article similar to Fate/Zero. Lastly, I couldn't find anything about the adult designs of Naruto or Sasuke to add to their design sections not even in the wikia. Cheers.Tintor2 (talk) 20:42, 2 December 2018 (UTC)

@Tintor2: I'm aware of the change, and I'm not bothered.
I nominated the character topic here.
It depends on how many characters there are in the franchise. If there are too many, there may be a need to move them to a new list.
I haven't ran into anything about the adult designs either. -- 1989 (talk) 20:48, 2 December 2018 (UTC)
By the way, can I mention ping @Flowerpiep:? The user helped with a lot of GA articles including the characters, The Last and Boruto. He also tried taking Sasuke Uchiha to FA but we failed with it. I think the biggest problem wasn't the prose but how we had to rearrange the entire reception. In the meantime, we added more information involving scholars who talked about Sasuke.Tintor2 (talk) 20:52, 2 December 2018 (UTC)
@Tintor2: You'd have to collaborate with Mike if he's willing to help with the article. He opposed the Naruto article for FA as well and offered to help with it after I messaged him, and now it's FA. -- 1989 (talk) 21:25, 2 December 2018 (UTC)

Foster family

Latest comment: 5 years ago2 comments2 people in discussion

I don't know how it works in English, but in the Boruto manga Naruto became Kawaki's guardian. Does this make him an adoptive father or foster? Cheers.Tintor2 (talk) 22:01, 8 December 2018 (UTC)

I'm not sure. I'd call him guardian for now. -- 1989 (talk) 22:10, 8 December 2018 (UTC)

  Hello! This is a generic message created and copied to all editors using scripts that I have created. As I have recently changed my username from "User:AlexTheWhovian" to "User:Alex 21", any scripts that I have created that are listed at your common.js page may, at the moment, no longer be working. To fix this, simply update all occurrences of "User:AlexTheWhovian" to "User:Alex 21"; see here for an example. All the best! -- /Alex/21 11:02, 4 January 2019 (UTC)

Ideas for doing stuff at Wikipedia

Latest comment: 5 years ago7 comments3 people in discussion

Hi, 1989! At the RFA Comment page, you asked if I had any suggestions for more areas to work in - places interesting enough that you can remove that "Semi-retired" banner from this page, i.e., really get hooked as happens to many of us. I replied there, but was reminded that this kind of one-to-one commentary is better kept to user talk pages, so I'm moving my comments here. I said:

Well, let's see what you enjoy doing now. You seem to be really good at finding older pages - particularly older user and user sandbox pages - that deserve speedy deletion, and tagging them. That's a valuable service. I notice you don't log them; if you use Twinkle you can set it to automatically create a log of your CSD and PROD tags, and you might consider doing that, so people can see your record. From the fact that 11,000 out of your 36,000 total edits have been deleted, and from the few that I just checked, I think your tags must be quite accurate. So that's good, and valuable for the 'pedia. But it sounds like you want to become more well-rounded, explore some new areas, see if you can find some new areas of activity here.
I see that you have the New Page Reviewer flag, but you don't seem to use it much; would new page reviewing interest you? You do make corrections and reverts at articles, that's good. But if you really want a rich and rewarding (and addictive) WP experience, IMO the main thing you need to explore is content creation and article creation. Look at some articles about things that interest you, and expand them with referenced material. If you find a subject that Wikipedia doesn’t cover, create an article about it. Create a bunch of articles. Join a WikiProject in an area that interests you; most WikiProjects have lists of suggested articles to be written. (WikiProjects are also a good way of "meeting" and collaborating with other users with similar interests; that kind of interaction makes WP a much more enjoyable place to spend time.) Don’t be in a hurry, take your time to do it right, but do it. If you do elect for RfA someday, you will need a good track record in writing and editing articles. Most RfA !voters want admins to be experienced enough in content creation to be able to deal with the questions, decisions, and users involved in that area. Content, after all, is what this place is all about. -- MelanieN (talk) 22:22, 15 February 2019 (UTC)
BTW I am pinging my friend Cullen, who is really good at helping new and longtime users feel welcome here and find their happy place. He may have some suggestions for you too. -- MelanieN (talk) 22:24, 15 February 2019 (UTC)
I also want to let you know that I think some editors were too harsh with you in evaluating your chances at RFA. It is possible to be frank while still being kind, and that's something I try to do. So, thank you for all the work you have done to help improve the encyclopedia. I enjoy assisting new editors at the Teahouse, and perhaps you might enjoy that. Everyone always recommends that administrator hopefuls work at Articles for Deletion. If you can find articles worth saving there, and actually improve those articles, that is both satisfying and the sort of thing that your fellow editors respect. I suggest that you read the administrator's noticeboards such as WP:ANI and WP:AN but avoid the too common behavior at those boards of stating the obvious, being snarky or repeating things ad nauseum. If you can make an occasional remark that gets to the heart of the matter and recommends a way forward, people will start to think of you as a very useful contributor. Of course, I agree with MelanieN that writing new articles and expanding existing articles is very satisfying and useful, and solid content creators always have a bit of an advantage at RFA. In conclusion, here is a bit of friendly advice: If you think you might want to put your name forward for adminstrator in six months or a year, remove the "Semi-retired" banner now. In order to have a hope of becoming an administrator, you need to be perceived as committed to the project, and that is an obvious first step. Cullen328 Let's discuss it 23:08, 15 February 2019 (UTC)
@MelanieN and Cullen328: Would me reverting vandalism (+ reporting to AIV) and participating CSD and FfD be any good? I don’t think I’ll be able to participate in AfD because that is not my interest as of right now. Is article creation a mandatory thing? I’m mostly interested in improving existing articles. I’m able to expand articles (e.g. Steven Universe; added a lot of info and later got to GA). I have improved a number of articles that were later promoted to a better status (GA, FA, FL, DYK). I mentioned it on the comments page. Also, I use the npr flag to review user pages. 1989 (talk) 02:56, 16 February 2019 (UTC)
You already do lots of CSD, and you do revert vandalism; that's good. It would be good for you to learn when to report vandalism to AIV, and to follow up on the results of your reports so that you develop an understanding of policy in that area. FfD is a good area for you to work in because you are already a file mover and show expertise in that area. Improving existing articles is good, I hope you will do more of that - especially staying with the article to help get it to DYK or GA or FL. Reviewing new pages is excellent; it wouldn't hurt to reread Wikipedia:New pages patrol and Wikipedia:Page Curation/Help. Reviewing new pages not only enlarges your experience in what makes good content, it also gives you practice in interacting with other users, explaining your actions, instructing them where they need it - all in a clear and courteous way. That gives you a chance to display or develop what is referred to as the proper temperament for adminship. Cullen recommended the Teahouse and the AN and ANI boards; I agree that you should at least do some reading in those areas, not necessarily to participate but see how they work and how people think. Personally I avoid AN and ANI, referred to as the Drama Boards, because of all the unpleasantness that goes on there, but take a look.
From a broader viewpoint: I would rather NOT see you seeking things to do because they might improve your chances at RfA. I would rather see you seeking things to do because you are looking for areas where you will enjoy working - and will continue to enjoy whether or not you ever apply for or achieve adminship. To make WP an enjoyable and empowering place for you right now, a place where you don't want to be "semi-retired". Here's my concern: people here are VERY leery of people who seek adminship for its own sake, simply to get the title and the prestige; that is referred to as WP:Hat collecting and it is a real negative for many people. I am a little concerned that this may be your goal here. My advice: relax, be a Wikipedia editor, find a range of ways to be useful here. Maybe in six months or a year you will apply for adminship because you actually need those tools to support what you are doing here. That's how RfA should happen: it should arise as a natural consequence of the editing and other activities you are doing. Not a goal in itself. Follow?
One other thing: you haven't said why you are seeking adminship, but I should warn you it is neither prestigious nor particularly pleasant. A lot of what admins do is invisible chores, cleaning up the encyclopedia (that's why the sysop flag is referred to as a "mop"). A lot of the rest is high-profile unpleasantness - dealing with disruptive people, getting insulted without insulting back, putting up with abuse and accusations. I'm not trying to discourage you; I am glad to be an admin and to help WP in ways I couldn't before. I just want to inject a dose of realism into your thinking. -- MelanieN (talk) 19:13, 16 February 2019 (UTC)
@MelanieN: I’m not looking for adminship for selfish purposes. I would like to assist in areas like CSD, FfD, AIV, RfPP, and UAA. I’m aware what comes with adminship, as I know there are editors or outcasts whom don’t respect what you do. I’m willing to handle such mess into helping the project. That’s why I am an administrator on Wikimedia Commons right now.
IMO, I have done a lot in 2017, that’s why my activity wasn’t so good last year. I don’t know where I’m going after this. From my controversial past, I don’t even think I’d succeed anyway, or at least not until a few more years. Maybe being an admin somewhere else will soften the blow, I don’t know. Until then, I’d rather be an editor for right now and find my way before considering being an admin here. Thanks so much for the messages. May peace be with you. -- 1989 (talk) 19:38, 16 February 2019 (UTC)
Forgive me for talking down to you; I forgot that as an admin at Commons, you are already familiar with the downsides of adminning. I do hope you find some areas here at enwiki that you enjoy for their own sake. Hope to keep seeing you around the 'pedia. -- MelanieN (talk) 21:04, 16 February 2019 (UTC)

Pain/Nagato

Latest comment: 5 years ago5 comments2 people in discussion

I don't know if you saw it, but I kind of had the idea to make an article for Pain. You can see all the sources here but the important thing is that since Naruto has a good character article topic, it would be needed to have extra help to make it pass GA. If you are busy, I understand. I no longer make GAs due to issues with my prose so I wouldn't nominate it unless I was aided. Cheers.Tintor2 (talk) 15:23, 6 July 2019 (UTC)

I don’t mind looking at it and trimming things. 1989 (talk) 19:21, 7 July 2019 (UTC)
I'll be working on the sandbox. I asked Flowerpiep but it seem he is too busy. I'll send you another message later.Tintor2 (talk) 19:53, 7 July 2019 (UTC)
I think I did most parts. Feel free to edit my sandbox or make it an article. By the way, which image do you think we should give the lead? When volume 48 was released in my country, there was a color picture of the old Nagato but I guess we could show the Pains. Feel free to edit anything. Cheers.Tintor2 (talk) 23:22, 7 July 2019 (UTC)

Flowerpiep copyedited Nagato (Naruto). Do you think it's ready for a GA nomination?Tintor2 (talk) 16:44, 2 August 2019 (UTC)

Maybe, it’s up to them to decide. 1989 (talk) 22:59, 2 August 2019 (UTC)
Who? You suggest to request a copyedit from the Guild? I mean, shouldn't the article become GA to keep up with Naruto characters good topic?Tintor2 (talk) 23:02, 2 August 2019 (UTC)
Flowerpiep. For a double check, sure, and yes it needs to. 1989 (talk) 23:12, 2 August 2019 (UTC)
I'll request one once the copyedit of Atsushi Nakajima (Bungo Stray Dogs) is done. In the past months I created some articles from that series so I'm at my limit of copyedit requests.Tintor2 (talk) 23:21, 2 August 2019 (UTC)
I requested one. 1989 (talk) 23:27, 2 August 2019 (UTC)
Thanks. Just curious, but in the future have you thought about another big nomination considering how Flowerpiep tried turning Sasuke Uchiha into a FA? Sadly none of us (and the Naruto wiki) know about Kishimoto's ideas when drawing the adult personas of Naruto and Sasuke for the finale and the Boruto series.Tintor2 (talk) 23:30, 2 August 2019 (UTC)
No, not really an FA contributor anymore. 1989 (talk) 23:33, 2 August 2019 (UTC)

Possible image replacement?

Latest comment: 5 years ago4 comments2 people in discussion

Remember this image you uploaded? Would it be possible make png backgroundless of some of these characters like the one you did with the three versions of Naruto Uzumaki. From what I've been told is that full body shots are preferred in character articles and that image has some characters who might fit better in the infobox. What do you think? Feel free to be bold.Tintor2 (talk) 00:59, 10 August 2019 (UTC)

I'm not sure. What characters did you have in mind? 1989 (talk) 06:06, 10 August 2019 (UTC)
The ones who have articles but their images are too small. I mean Rock Lee's current image is kind of small but the artbook image you have has a full shot of his body instead which might be better preferred. On the other hand, Itachi Uchiha's present image might be better to stay as he it further shows his face. Also, a new user is trying to create a Madara Uchiha article but as I contacted him, I told him about the necessary stuff to create a fictional character article.Tintor2 (talk) 16:08, 10 August 2019 (UTC)
Update: The user made quite an upgrade in the Madara Uchiha draft by putting third party sources to create a big reception section. Still he's missing creation info and I found nothing about it.

Remember the Naruto statue by Tetsuya Nishio. I uploaded into the article. However, I've been told if we somehow got an image from China, it would come as a free image due to how the country handles copyrights. What do you think? I uploaded that image since it is kinda proof of the character's popularity. However, I have no idea how to request a free image in commons.Tintor2 (talk) 23:27, 25 September 2019 (UTC)

I was working in a film article named Psycho-Pass: The Movie and I found a lot of creation information thanks to these translations of a guidebook. However, I can't seem to find scans of it to know the page number of each interview.

Obito Uchiha

Latest comment: 5 years ago2 comments1 person in discussion

@Flowerpiep: As I checked Madara's article I realized there were a lot of sources discussing Obito/Tobi's character based on his role in the series. Thus I ended up creating Obito Uchiha. Sadly, I can't find too much about the voice actors other than his Madara impersonation voice. I'm not sure about the image since I think Kishimoto never made a colored image of adult Obito. I found the need to add an adult Obito image important since there is a lot of commentary about the twist of his identity but I couldn't find any Kishimoto image. Feel free to make any edit.Tintor2 (talk) 23:13, 16 October 2019 (UTC)

@Flowerpiep: BTW, I found actually coverage about the adult characters from Boruto's franchise, most notably the FA Naruto Uzumaki. You think it might be possible to find commentary by Kishimoto or Tetsuya Nishio through this? Check Check this.Tintor2 (talk) 17:26, 18 October 2019 (UTC)

Talaquega Park Page

Latest comment: 4 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

I had started the page "Talaquega Park". It was deleted because I did not input any material for a lengthy amount of time but I have since recently added material as I have gathered it. Please let me know if you can un-delete this page so that others may be able to enjoy the history of this cool building!

Please let me know,

@Flowerpiep: Hi there. Hope you are staying healthy. I happened to find multiple reviews about the Naruto finale online so I added them to the reception section for further coverage. They are manga reviews though. Also, as soon as I google in regards Naruto's growth in the series, I found quite an interesting article that praises Naruto's character as a good example of Bildungsroman. Considering you are one of the top contributors to these articles I wondered if you would revise anything I added to the articles. Anyways, take care guys.Tintor2 (talk) 22:34, 8 June 2020 (UTC)

I thought you left Wikipedia but then I saw that edit. I just wanted to tell you that I made major expansion to the video game Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 4. I don't know if you are interested with gaming but in case you are I wonder if you want to make it GA. The prose needs some improvements but I'm busy with other game articles like The King of Fighters XIV. I tried asking Flowerpiep since he likes editing articles but it seems he doesn't have the free time to anymore. Anywway, take care.Tintor2 (talk) 20:59, 21 August 2020 (UTC)

I edit occasionally. Not sure if I'm able to restore to the activity I was at years ago. I've done so much at the time, that I felt I've done enough. It's nice to see you tho. Brings back memories. 1989 (talk) 21:03, 21 August 2020 (UTC)
I see. Still stay safe in this complicated situation. Thankfully, I do office job at home. Feel free to edit the Storm 4 article if you want. I did make Storm 2 GA but that was quite smaller.Tintor2 (talk) 21:06, 21 August 2020 (UTC)

Dividing themes from reception

Latest comment: 3 years ago2 comments2 people in discussion

Long time no see. I've been kinda doing that with character articles from some big ones like Naruto Uzumaki and Sasuke Uchiha. I was kinda inspired by the editor behind most Evangelion articles like Shinji Ikari who recently became GA. However, it might be more worthy to move other stuff like how Kishimoto thinks of the character if you are interested. This is common in guidebooks or artbooks but it sure is hard to find translations. Feel free to be bold.Tintor2 (talk) 15:08, 19 February 2021 (UTC)

Hi there. I'm not sure if notes from Kishimoto should be moved to themes. The characterization section is quite large with opinions from scholars regarding the character and probably wouldn't be the best place to move the commentary. 1989 (talk) 18:19, 19 February 2021 (UTC)

News and updates associated with user scripts from the past three months (September, October, and November 2020).

Hello everyone and welcome to the 18th issue of the Wikipedia Scripts++ Newsletter:

  Twinkle has made a number of improvements, including using a change tag to identify actions made with it and automatically filing edit requests for protected XfD nominations.
SD0001's shortdescs-in-category is now compatible with scripts modifying category listings, such as Equazcion's CatListMainTalkLinks
GhostInTheMachine's TalkHelper2 is a newer version of their prior script, TalkHelper
GeneralNotability's spihelper updated to 2.2.10, fixing a number of small bugs, automatically tagging globally locked socks as such in the sockpuppet template, and restoring open cases following an SPI history merge.
Enterprisey's script-installer gadget has been updated with more internationalization of messages, as well as addition of a user preference, window.scriptInstallerInstallTarget to allow controlling where new scripts are to be installed.

Cite Unseen update

Latest comment: 3 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

Hello! Thank you for using Cite Unseen. The script recently received a significant update, detailed below.

  • You can now toggle which icons you do or don't want to see. See the configuration section for details. All icons are enabled by default except for the new   generally reliable icon (described below).
  • New categorizations/icons:
    •   Advocacy: Organizations that are engaged in advocacy (anything from political to civil rights to lobbying). Note that an advocacy group can be reliable; this indicator simply serves to note when a source's primary purpose is to advocate for certain positions or policies, which is important to keep in mind when consuming a source.
    •   Editable: Sites that are editable by the public, such as wikis (Wikipedia, Fandom) or some databases (IMDb, Discogs).
    •   Predatory journals: These sites charge publication fees to authors without checking articles for quality and legitimacy.
    • Perennial source categories: Cite Unseen will mark sources as   generally reliable,   marginally reliable,   generally unreliable,   deprecated, and   blacklisted. This is based on Wikipedia's perennial sources list, which reflects community consensus on frequently discussed sources. Sources that have multiple categorizations are marked as   varied reliability. Note that   generally reliable icons are disabled by default to reduce clutter, but you can enable them through your custom config. A special thanks to Newslinger, whose new Sourceror API provides the perennial sources list in a clean, structured format.
  • With the addition of the new categorizations, the   biased source icon has been removed. This category was very broad, and repetitive to the new advocacy and perennial sources categorizations that are more informative.

If you have any feedback, requested features, or domains to add/remove, don't hesitate to bring it up on the script's talk page. Thank you! ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 23:10, 20 December 2020 (UTC)

You are receiving this message as a user of Cite Unseen. If you no longer wish to receive very occasional updates, you may remove yourself from the mailing list.

Scripts++ Newsletter – Issue 20

News and updates associated with user scripts from the past month (January 2021).

Hello everyone and welcome to the 20th issue of the Wikipedia Scripts++ Newsletter:

  Open tasks

  • As a reminder, the legacy javascript globals (like accessing wgPageName without first assigning it a value or using mw.config.get('wgPageName') instead) are deprecated. If your user scripts make use of the globals, please update them to use mw.config instead. Some global interface editors or local interface administrators may edit your user script to make these changes if you don't. See phab:T72470 for more.

  Miscellaneous

  • For people interested in creating user scripts or gadgets using TypeScript, a types-mediawiki package (GitHub, NPM) is now available that provides type definitions for the MediaWiki JS interface and the API.
  • A GitHub organization has been created for hosting codebases of gadgets. Users who maintain gadgets using GitHub may choose to move their repos to this organization, to ensure continued maintenance by others even if the original maintainer becomes inactive.

  Pending requests

As always, if anyone else would like to contribute, including nominating a featured script, help is appreciated. Stay safe, and happy new year! --DannyS712 (talk) 01:17, 3 February 2021 (UTC)

Tagging pages for speedy deletion

Latest comment: 2 years ago3 comments2 people in discussion

Hello, 1989,

Please do not tag drafts for speedy deletion, CSD G13 as you did with Draft:Sans and Draft:تاريخ الإرساليات الأميريكية في بيروت و نشأت البروتستانتية في لبنان. You are not doing it correctly. These drafts are not eligible for G13 for MONTHS. Valid G13s were last edited on June 3, 2021 or earlier, not August or November. Please review WP:CSD so you better understand the criteria and do not tag any more drafts until you do. Thank you. Liz Read! Talk! 04:08, 4 December 2021 (UTC)

I also found Draft:Abut and Draft:RELAXED MIND that you mistagged and I needed to restore. Please, be careful when you are tagging pages for deletion. Liz Read! Talk! 04:11, 4 December 2021 (UTC)
@Liz: Duly noted. I was trying something where if the content itself wasn't touched in six months, I would tag it, now I know not to do that. I'll be sure to tag G13s properly next time. 1989 (talk) 04:41, 4 December 2021 (UTC)

  • Novem Linguae:

    • share ExpandTemplates url allows for easy sharing of your inputs to Special:ExpandTemplates. It adds a button that, when clicked, copies a shareable URL to your exact invocation of the page, like this. Other editors do not need to have this script installed in order to access the URL generated.
    • show tag names shows the real names of tags next to their display names in places such as page revision histories or the watchlist.
  • Tol:
  • Venkat TL:
    • ColourContrib color-codes the user contributions page so that pages you've edited last are sharply distinguished from pages where another editor was the last to edit the page.
  • Vukky:

All in all, some very neat scripts were written in these last few months. Hoping to see many more in the next issue -- drop us a line on the talk page if you've been writing (or seeing) anything cool and good. Filling in for DannyS712, this has been jp×g.

There has been a change about Boruto's images since the latest chapters had the timeskip. A user managed to find one of teenage Boruto without any logo to replace Design but I can't find the original source. Same with the infobox image. I have no problem with any image. Also, I'm not sure about it but I wonder if certain character articles need better reception as a result of how more strict notability guidelines have become. Just check my talk page. Now reception sections need scholars or article more centered around the character. I did research for Boruto including two scholars as well as some article focused on his recent changes as an example. Heard Sarada also became famous for her redesign which resulted into one of the fastest cosplays too. Cheers.Tintor2 (talk) 19:37, 4 October 2023 (UTC)
