Why am I getting this when I clearly wish not to get those? TheBlazikenMaster (talk) 11:03, 2 April 2008 (UTC)}}
- You should probably ask the bot's controller what's gone wrong. Algebraist 13:28, 2 April 2008 (UTC)
- Weird, you should have gotten removed. I don't know why you didn't, I'll make sure you get removed next time. Cbrown1023 talk 16:22, 2 April 2008 (UTC)
Doomsday (2)
I am. :) However, it's a British film, and there will undoubtedly be more coverage about Doomsday when the film is released there. There could be more background information, and I think it would appropriate to incorporate British reviews for a British film. Also, the DVD usually has special features that can have additional background. —Erik (talk • contrib) - 17:12, 3 April 2008 (UTC)
- There's probably a couple of editors whose conduct I haven't always liked, but I thought the message sounded like too much of a blanket statement. Most of them are consistently stellar, so I didn't think the message was needed. (Of course, not going to name names.) —Erik (talk • contrib) - 22:36, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
List of Family Guy characters
I'm going from active Family Guy users who frequently edit pages to discuss a situation that has arisen. Please see the discussion page to reply, thanks~!- Yours truly, S (talk) 19:37, 12 April 2008 (UTC)

Eh, he's been arguably one of the most disruptive Wikipedians irt fiction, and he's been told by people more articulate than me before. Sceptre (talk) 19:05, 16 April 2008 (UTC)
On Archiving...
It's good to know that you'll still be editing here. I have a small tip on talk page archiving. It may not be very merciful on Wikipedia's bandwidth or a boon for organisation, nor is it a very time-efficient method, but please hear me out.
Instead of relying on a bot to clear your stuff, why not do it yourself whenever you're free? It doesn't have to be overly complicated, and it's only slightly slower than a bot archival. I mean, look at my talk page, for instance. Apart from putting a simple little rule at the top of the page, all I did was to create a new page, cut 65 535 bytes of text and format and paste that onto my new page. The process alone takes up only about ten minutes, probably five if you cut out all the fancy stuff. I'm sure you can spare that amount of time.
I have your user and talk page on my watchlist. Whenever I have some free time (which I don't have much), I view edits made to user or talk pages I have on my watchlist. Sometimes, I might even take a trip down one of these talk pages and blank all the personal attacks I see.
Another alternative is to not clean up your talk page at all. I mean, look at this, for example. All he does is to remove automated messages (see the first section on his talk page).
Archiving a talk page every 65 535 bytes is actually quite fun, in my opinion. Just read through everything you archive and you may understand what I'm getting at. -- Altiris Helios Exeunt 01:48, 17 April 2008 (UTC)
How can I stop pages from automaticlly appear on my watchlist when somebody moves them?
{{HelpMe|I really need help, because I'm sick of seeing vandalism moved pages being added to my watchlist. It can be a pain in the ass to clean up afterwards, so can somebody help me? TheBlazikenMaster (talk) 10:46, 19 April 2008 (UTC)}}
Response.
No, there was not. However, there does not have to have been a discussion to merge it. I was being bold, as suggested. I merged because the two articles were smaller than they should be, and almost everything in Emerald is just repeating what is said in R&S. - A Link to the Past (talk) 23:53, 29 April 2008 (UTC)
