4 things
I'm asking all admins the first 3
1. In the past before I took a leave of abscence for personal reasons I deleted content of troll pages and possibly some others so it became a habit of mine and didn't know it was against the rules to remove content from irrevelant pages. I should mention others did it as well but can't remember who.
2. I occasionally log in to my old account to get access to my old blogs. This time because a user forgot I changed accounts which and left a message which I removed causing me to be active on it today. Along with that I blanked my profile and moved it to my new one and as mentioned previously blanked my talk page. Would that be sockpuppeting? I'm just wondering because I only edited my profile and talk page(and in one case another user's to make them think I left so thy wouldn't edit it and also posed as a new user so the community wouldn't know so they wouldn't think my new account was a sockpuppet. Is all this ok?
Thanks for notifying me; I've gone ahead and perm-blocked this ip for this behavior. - PrinceZarbontalkcontrib 17:53, December 10, 2012 (UTC)
Re:Zarbon is the best
Yeah, good to know I'm not alone, haha. I sure thought I was. Done! Huh, not sure what's up with the top 10 on my userpage, it's all wrong. Any way, the real top 10 favorites can be seen in that forum. You're a Dodoria fan as well! That's awesome! BulbasaurBeach 05:04, December 12, 2012 (UTC)
Yeah ive seen the page before. Ive actaully tried making my own section quite a few times but i cant narrow my down whose my favorites. lol To many to chose from. Yeah ive noticed that to. We also like some of the same music an other TV shows such as Futurama, Married with Children, and The Simpsons Thanks for looking at my page by the way. :)Supremegogeta 22:59, December 12, 2012 (UTC)
Hiya, man! ^.^
Hey PrinceZarbon, what's up? I wanted to talk to you about an art suggestion, if you're up for it.I was looking through your DA, and was pretty amazed. Any way, you know the "Zarbon's hands" piece you did a while ago? Would you ever consider doing one with Dodoria? Because I think that would look really cool, with his awesome forearms, and the nails. Well, just something to consider. Thanks! Also, to update my opinion on the collectibles page: Still going really well. The only thing I dislike is you making me want things I'l never be able to afford. xD -- CookiePirateTalkContribs 02:52, December 13, 2012 (UTC)
I had my wife draw out the Zarbon, The Demon Within (which is my idea in pictorial format); I'm having her do most of the art for me generally, primarily due to the fact that she's more of the artist and I'm more of a music-lover; technically, I am a music writer. It's very difficult for me to locate a good production company however as it's my primary joy. I may or may not be able to draw a Dodoria's hands one in the future, depending on whether I can get a scanner as i do not have one currently and my previous one broke. Unless, i do it on photoshop, which I'm not fond of using. Yes, I prefer traditional art to digital art. Also, i did draw out scenes from Sopranos, Oz, and The Shield (my three favorite live-action series) and centralized around the death scenes of the best supporting characters throughout the series [the best deaths]. I will probably be working on other characters here for the most recent updates in terms of the collectibles articles as I want to have a complete encyclopedic resource here for collectors and character lovers in general. - PrinceZarbontalkcontrib 03:00, December 13, 2012 (UTC)
RE: Top Ten
Hi, PZ. That's a good idea, I'll add it in a moment. Cheers - SaiyanEliteTalkContrb 21:33, December 13, 2012 (UTC)
Two things
1. As I noted in my profile I'm only semi active currently so I'll get to the forums when I can. I did once but not sure when.
I was wondering if you were taking suggestions for quotes and if so where I should suggest it and if so do you accept them from video games and if so from what-if battles of video games and if so from what-if characters of what-if battles from video games?Yes yes, long sentence.Buuuuuuuuuuuuuu!! 01:49, December 14, 2012 (UTC)
No, I am currently not taking any suggestions from the games; only from the anime, movies, and manga. - PrinceZarbontalkcontrib 18:56, December 14, 2012 (UTC)
Collectibles Questions
First of all love the series you're adding on them I'm curious where you're getting all the info and and if you plan on doing every character. I have info on some but that's just because I own them. I do feel that some that only have one like in Ninja Murasaki and Yamu's cases should be combined with the article. For example Goten and Trunks in the Mighty Mask was part of the Irwin Toys minature lineup. Lastly links are missing at the bottom of some pages like the one you made for Eis Shenron. The User Who Has Long Since Forgotten His Name (talk) 20:42, December 14, 2012 (UTC)
I'm not going to be fusing any of the articles because it makes it easier for people to locate them by their title. When it comes to the case of Ninja Murasaki, he actually has many more pieces than just one. When it comes to the hero articles, I won't be doing any of them until I have completed all the villain ones. Eis Shenron seems to be the only one I hadn't linked to, likely because I had forgotten, but that's done now. Thanks and keep checking as I'll be updating more characters in the near future. About the info itself, I'm getting it from official release dates and actual technical details, such as the lineup and series numeric by company release. Is there any one villain you're looking forward to seeing? - PrinceZarbontalkcontrib 22:02, December 14, 2012 (UTC)
Frieza, Cooler, and King Cold and Nappa and Raditz. I know Cell Jr. has a miniature but not sure on anyone else. Babii and rest of the movie villains I'd also like to see. I knw Hiurdegarn has a minature but I don't own it. Commander Red, Colonel Silver and Staff Officer Black are last but take your time. Did you make Tao yet because I can't find him. Oh here is a photo of a pinball game with Frieza.
I won't be doing Frieza anytime soon because that article is likely going to be the absolute longest out of all the villain collectible ones... if it isn't the longest out of all basic articles on this wiki all by itself. I will definitely be making Tao, Red, and Black very soon. I don't think there is anything for Silver at all (at least I haven't been able to find anything). I will likely do Hirudegarn and King Cold after the aforementioned, followed up by Baby. Nappa and Raditz are also going to take quite some time to bring together, so I might do them last, but I'd finish them before I even undertake the very difficult task of making a Frieza article. I am not going to do the Frieza, Cell, or Buu articles until all other villains are completed. - PrinceZarbontalkcontrib 22:09, December 15, 2012 (UTC)
Yeah, I noticed. I am deleting the useless spam now, lemme know if I missed any of it. - PrinceZarbontalkcontrib 21:31, December 18, 2012 (UTC)
Thanks. Not sure if you saw the one on this blog yet btw. Also, I was following a blog to see if it was noticed, but I guess it hasn't been, someone made spam comments on this blog. Buuuuuuuuuuuuuu!! 21:44, December 18, 2012 (UTC)
Yes mate. The zenny to Zeni bit, changed it on the archives. Thanx for letting me know. - PrinceZarbontalkcontrib 01:18, December 19, 2012 (UTC)
I Need Help... i dont get this wikia/site .-.
Re: Deceased category
I also don't see why having such a category would go against an in-universe PoV. Although, in a series like Dragon Ball, it might be less ambiguous to have a category like "Characters last known to be dead" (name could use some work, but you get the idea). -- talkcontr 23:12, December 22, 2012 (UTC)
Deceased is the best bet because it distinguishes characters last known to be dead as such. If a character isn't deceased, then the category doesn't serve a purpose to be on their article. One could argue saying that there isn't a category for living, so why for the dead; but that in and of itself is erroneous in argument because there would be no way to decipher one from the other if there was no line to distinguish the differential; those who are deceased should be noted as such. No matter how many times a villain escapes from hell, if he is sent back in the end of the series, then he should be noted as "deceased." This is by far the biggest problem I have found with both the Wookiepedia (Star Wars wikia) and the Farscape wikia, just to name a few, which neither has yet allowed the inclusion of this very important category. It is irrelevant if we look at what-if scenarios or the in-game universe, but I'm going to go ahead and add the deceased category to the characters who pertain to it as such based on the manga and anime canon. - PrinceZarbontalkcontrib 01:26, December 23, 2012 (UTC)
Avatar image
Hey mate, how's it going? Anyways, I noticed your avatar's quality, so I took the same image in a higher quality. It's from a previous pic on the wiki but cropped just to fit Zarbon's head and armor breast plates. If it's good enough, I think an avatar change should suffice. The Odd Musketeer 09:24, January 2, 2013 (UTC)
You won't believe this, but I prefer my current one due to the coloring being darker, more like the original footage rather than the kai version. - PrinceZarbontalkcontrib 00:30, January 3, 2013 (UTC)
Haha, it's fine dude, it's your personal preference, everyone has their preferences. I think the screenshot is actually from the Remastered Box-sets rather than Kai. You still got enough quotes to last through 2013? The Odd Musketeer 01:24, January 3, 2013 (UTC)
I believe I have enough to last through 2020. Btw, I've been working on the collectibles articles; have you seen them? - PrinceZarbontalkcontrib 01:27, January 3, 2013 (UTC)
Oh, yes, I've seen them, they're extremely well done mate, great job. Due to Tao being one of my favourite villains, the figurines you've found interest me, I'm considering getting one of them. I assume you've either collected all these figurines you list in the said articles or just have a very good foreign website at your disposal. Great job anyway! The Odd Musketeer 01:30, January 3, 2013 (UTC)
Actually, I've collected the data from my years of research on online auctions. These are likely the best resources for all kinds of merchandise. The best one is definitely ebay in my personal opinion. And on behalf of my own collection, I only have almost all the merchandise pertaining to Zarbon, Dodoria, and Cui as they are my three favorites overall in the DB universe. I sold most of my other pieces in order to obtain the ones I want most. - PrinceZarbontalkcontrib 04:06, January 3, 2013 (UTC)
Ah, I see. It would be pretty difficult to fit all the villian character figurines in one place, haha. I have a few figurines from stuff I enjoy, but not that much. What would you consider your most valued piece? The Odd Musketeer 22:49, January 4, 2013 (UTC)
My most valued is the Unifive Banpresto Sofvi Zarbon standing at 6 inches, released in 2004 as its the best at the basic figure scale. My most wanted piece is one of the only ones I am actually missing; the Zarbon, Dodoria, and Frieza statue model kit set released in 2009. - PrinceZarbontalkcontrib 22:58, January 4, 2013 (UTC)
Babidi and Dabura Question
Since you usually give the best answer I'm asking you if it should be added on Babidi's page that he was the last canon villain to die and go to Hell and Dabura the last canon villain to die and go to Other World? GT villains are non canon and we don't the fate of any bessides Myuu or Rildo.
I'm not sure if being canon or not plays a role really in the situation of life and death, but I'm currently in the process of trying to figure out a better name for the category to portray deceased characters throughout the series without sounding too ambiguous. Category Talk:Deceased is where we decipher what to call the category as of now. All incentive is welcome. - PrinceZarbontalkcontrib 23:57, January 7, 2013 (UTC)

Can you please escort our guest out of the mansion please?
Is this interference chat-related, because I am not a chat mod, and he already appears to be blocked from chat as it is. - PrinceZarbontalkcontrib 20:52, January 13, 2013 (UTC)
He's vandalizing articles and uploading pornographic images. The Odd Musketeer 20:53, January 13, 2013 (UTC)
Hello!! Have you see Wings of the Heart page? In section "Lyrics". I have done this. Do you like? If you like this, I can do the same in the other openings and endings. This it easy for me, because in almost of songs in Dragon Ball catalan wiki I have done this (I'm a sysop in this catalan wiki). If you go there, in the home page, clic in tab "Música" in "Navega per Bola de Drac Wiki!". In there, you can see all openings and endings and, if you clic in one, you can see the same that I did here and the same in catalan language.
If you are agree I can do the same in the other songs here.
(sorry for my english, this language it's very difficult for me, not was my favourite subject in high school...)
Seems interesting; you might want to bring this up with my admin comrades as well just to see what they think; but it seems like a nice addition to me; personally, I was never crazy about any of the lyrics as I am more an expert on the music itself rather than the lyrics in the openings or closings but I encourage any and all additional information as it will aid our mission at being a fundamentally stronger encyclopedic resource. - PrinceZarbontalkcontrib 05:48, January 25, 2013 (UTC)
Just to throw an opinion in here, I really like what you've done, and would 100% support this change. It looks really nice! -- CookiePirateTalkContribs 19:50, January 26, 2013 (UTC)
Hey! In catalan wiki, I have done a test with Dragon Soul song about what we was talk. Now it's only in two languages, But the idea is extend it for more idioms, like spanish, portugese or french. What do you think? This is only a stub, but the last result will look like this.

If you wouldn't mind...
Apparently a new user on chat (with only 5 prior edits) instigated a forum about having me demoted, and emailed staff at a point when it was like 8 to 3 in favor of the motion (all 8 being people that chat and don't edit much if at all). Anyway, I know I shouldn't be worried, but if you get a chance I would appreciate you voicing your opinion either way. http://dragonball.wikia.com/wiki/Forum:Admin_powers_should_go Thanks! -- 10X.Ka.me.ha.me.ha.....talk.....contrib. 23:06, February 21, 2013 (UTC)
He's got over 40 edits now. You're talking about SkyTerror aren't you. I want to drop it but he's not going to. I know this forum is going to carry on a bit while. 10X I have a better idea is that instead of you being demoted how about Kotsu be the new admin but you're not demoted. I think we do need another one.
Seaterror had 5 edits prior to that forum. I am fine with adding more admins, but that is a separate discussion than the forum you made. Generally we add admins when there is too much work in the articles to handle for the current ones. What in particular do you feel that another admin would add to the site? The biggest problem that people complain about is harassment in chat, and chat mods like Kotsu have complete power over the entirety of chat matters. We also assigned SSJ4 Vegito as the "Social Admin" to be the lead admin in charge of chat and blogs, including being the main decision maker for new chat mods. -- 10X.Ka.me.ha.me.ha.....talk.....contrib. 23:19, February 21, 2013 (UTC)
10X, I am rarely in disagreement with you about the workings of this wikia; Anyone who feels we need more admins is not in their right mind; what we really need is to restrict such behavior on the chat itself. Personally, the chat is the least area of my expertise and perhaps, the least in dealing with the actual work we are doing here. It is also the most useless in terms of maintaining an encyclopedic resource and definitely not the determining factor of what makes a good admin. Worst case scenario, we can add some more chat mods... but that's only if the idiocy and spam is kept to a minimum; it is unavoidable. There will always be spam. It is our duty to try our best to keep it to a minimum. I feel, personally, that these addendum areas have actually negated from the powerhouse that is our wikia; chats do not determine a good resource, they are merely a fun factor for members; our great grandeur as a resource has always been our ability to work coherently alongside each other. So don't worry mate. I'm on your side with this; as a matter of fact, I admit that most of the complaints and useless gibberish has been a result of the chat this entire past year; this one cursed at that one and that one spammed that one, it's seriously childish behavior. More than half the complaints coming about chat are all secondary compared to our primary focus here on the wikia: Maintaining an encyclopedic resource. Just one more thing 10x, please let me know of a suitable title for the deceased category, I really would like one re-added; any help on that matter is greatly appreciated on my behalf. - PrinceZarbontalkcontrib 23:38, February 21, 2013 (UTC)

I don't think renaming files is a very imperative and important issue. As long as the file is used in the proper instance and without profane material, the title is of little concern, whether it depicts an episodic breakdown or the character name. - PrinceZarbontalkcontrib 02:50, February 24, 2013 (UTC)
It just makes them more organized when named something correct. What about the citation needed thing? SeaTerror (talk) 05:08, February 24, 2013 (UTC)
Isn't that a link to the one piece wikia? I'm not an admin on that wikia. - PrinceZarbontalkcontrib 19:36, February 24, 2013 (UTC)
I'm showing you what the OP wikia uses. It would be a good thing to have on here because there's a lot of things that need sources. SeaTerror (talk) 21:39, February 24, 2013 (UTC)
Did you bring this up to my comrades? I am currently occupied with other projects on the wikia; primarily the further addition of completed Collectibles articles and Background Music articles. This is my current work criteria. Citation of certain instances can wait when we are at a major lack of other imperative material on the wikia in and of itself. I might take a look at this myself if I get the spare time, but you might want to bring this up to 10X, as this is his primary focus; mine remains the very addition of content to the wikia as well as reverting of improper instances or proper formatting. - PrinceZarbontalkcontrib 21:45, February 24, 2013 (UTC)
We have a group called the "Citation Crops" that is tasked with adding citations to articles. For specific things that you are doubtful of, you can use the citation needed template. Try not to overuse it to the point that it clutters the articles though. The best thing to do is just add in the reference yourself if you can find the source. -- 10X.Ka.me.ha.me.ha.....talk.....contrib. 06:53, February 25, 2013 (UTC)
Soundtracks
Is it true you're working on adding soundtrack articles to the wiki? If so, I found a couple of Wikipedia articles that aren't on the wiki yet in relation to soundtracks.
I would add them myself, but I thought that if this is your own project, you know more about how to do it than I, and I didn't want to just copy and paste the wikipedia article or anything. Shakuran13ThisendsNOW! 00:38, February 25, 2013 (UTC)
As you know, I greatly prefer the Japanese soundtrack in its composition to the English, (I only really like Scott Morgan's work with Faulconer productions) so I will work on those articles when I have completed the Japanese soundtrack. Feel free to contribute any of the English material at your leisure as it is the last of my to-do-list. - PrinceZarbontalkcontrib 00:44, February 25, 2013 (UTC)
Okay, then I'll add these to my to-do list, but just so you know, these are not the English soundtracks; it says it's composed by Kenji Yamamoto and on the infobox it says that that the language is Japanese. Shakuran13ThisendsNOW! 03:59, February 25, 2013 (UTC)
Oh, and speaking of preferring the Japanese soundtrack to the English one, have you, by any chance, heard Nathan Johnson's soundtrack to Wrath of the Dragon? While I prefer the Japanese theme for Tapion, Nathan Johnson's arrangement for it in some parts is really quite good. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eKP16ZYc7KsShakuran13ThisendsNOW! 04:04, February 25, 2013 (UTC)
Yes, I have heard all those tracks. Also, when I refer to the Japanese tracks, I am referring to the Shunsuke Kikuchi originals, as those are the ones I love. My favorite English version tracks are Pikkon's Theme and Electronic Circus (19's theme). Most of the rest just annoys me (such as the cell themes and overall cell games stuff, it just sounds like loony sound effects rather than actual tune). - PrinceZarbontalkcontrib 04:02, February 26, 2013 (UTC)

Voice actors
Hey! My friend Piece Enrik and me will put the catalan voice actors in a lot of pages. We have seen that the Voice actors link is only in English dub. If we put the link for Bola de Drac Wiki in catalan voice actors would be any problem? For example, "Joan Sanz" is the catalan voice actor for Vegeta. In the catalan wiki exists the page Joan Sanz. The idea is to make a link in the part of Vegeta's voice actors to the actor voice page.
We can't link to the other wikis but the best you can do is reference how the name would be in the catalan. You can easily translate the catalan articles you desire and make them here on this wiki as we can't have users going back and forth for these minor links. - PrinceZarbontalkcontrib 00:34, March 12, 2013 (UTC)
I'm here because of a very strange mistake. On the Continuous Energy Bullets page, Gogeta's energy barrage is listed as Soul Strike. In Infinite World and Budokai 3, Soul Strike is the combination of kicks Gogeta used before killing Janemba. Can this be fixed?
Hey, I'm new here. I was wondering if it was possible to nominate a featured quote? If not, I'll do it right here: "You lose, Frieza!' ~ Vegeta. Thanks for listening! D3T&FS (talk) 03:07, March 20, 2013 (UTC)
"You lose, Frieza" isn't much of a quote; it's more of a random quip that a few hundred characters have said to each other, like "You lose, ____" fill in the blank. I tend to actually insert things that have meaning or some form of moral intention, irony, or anything that designates a meaningful line. If you look through the history and archives of quotations, you'd find that almost all of them have some form of meaning. The nearest one that hasn't had any is "Me Buu, Kill you,"and that's because it's likely one of kid buu's only quips; still having some form of more meaning. Wanna give me any more recommendations, feel free to do so in the future. - PrinceZarbontalkcontrib 22:40, March 20, 2013 (UTC)
Thanks, I guess I should have chosen a better quote; perhaps, "My name is Goku, and I live here. Now, leave us alone!" from Goku, obviously. I love that quote because of the anger in Goku's voice when he says leave us alone is so tense. But there you go, thanks again! D3T&FS (talk) 03:37, March 21, 2013 (UTC)

When it comes to the addition of these articles, when I get to characters like Frieza, Cell, Buu, etc. [the articles will be huge] I will re-add any information; no probs there. But this project is something I've undertaken and it would only confuse me to have input prior to my insertion of the articles; pretty much make things harder for me. I've done fairly well up until this point. Are there any other characters you are looking forward to seeing who aren'tmajor characters with approximately 800 or so pieces of collectibles? - PrinceZarbontalkcontrib 20:08, March 31, 2013 (UTC)
I see you removed my deletion tag from this picture, and possibly moar, saying in-use pictures shouldn't be deleted. However, under the 'File Usage' section, it says "There are no pages that link to this photo." Why can't it be deleted if it isn't being used and is a duplicate of an already existing file? Buuuuuuuuuuuuuu!! 18:25, April 5, 2013 (UTC)
Due to the fact that I uploaded the image, it's difficult for me to keep track of images I've uploaded if they are deleted systematically. This is why I'd prefer if none of the images are replaced. It would make things easier if other images that are similar in context are uploaded so as not to cause conflict with pre-existing ones. In the future, I'd appreciate if you can check to see if the image was uploaded by an admin before tagging it because more than most of the time, the images are being used on articles. In this case, it's an exception, but a lot of the time, images previously used on articles are best kept on the wikia and not tampered with; especially if they are my uploads because they are almost always in use. This is why I am against the replacement of images but am more for the addition of superfluous ones. - PrinceZarbontalkcontrib 20:28, April 5, 2013 (UTC)
Yah, and keep in mind that we don't have any space limits or anything. If wikia started bugging us about filling their servers or something it might be different. -- 10X.Ka.me.ha.me.ha.....talk.....contrib. 22:05, April 5, 2013 (UTC)
Thank you, kind sir.
Truth is, I've already had experienceson other wikis, and I felt obligated to share my theory about Goku and Nuova Shenron. Good day to you! THoH ~ doo-dudu-dum! (talk) 22:18, April 6, 2013 (UTC)
Curious
You get the 'Collectibles' images from eBay, right? (I'm not going to steal your project if that's what you might think) Buuuuuuuuuuuuuu!! 01:46, April 12, 2013 (UTC)
I get the images from everywhere (not just ebay). Some images are from numerous dragon ball sites. The difference is that everywhere else, they are listed in a very annoying method (by series sets) and this is harder for collectors to obtain all the items in relation to a specific character; this is now the only resource that will allow collectors and information seekers to find items by character rather than series sets. I'm well on my way through most of the supporting cast now and hope to get done the rest of the characters in the future. - PrinceZarbontalkcontrib 15:51, April 12, 2013 (UTC)
Archived
Can Archvie it? on my talk page? I kinda don't know why i want it archived. i guess i just do. Strawberry Ichigo Talk 23:30, April 14, 2013 (UTC)
Refresh My Memory
I just wanted a quick refresher on the subject of certain information. For example, the page Future Gohan. Within his infobox, it states he was revived and then links to a video-game. Now, if I recall our MoS states that all manga/anime sources are without question the undisputed source that our data comes from, followed by guidebooks etc. However, why is it that within the infobox it states he was revived, when in the manga/anime this is not true. I feel as if this will only confuse readers, and his article is not the only place I see this. Shouldn't this video-game only revival concept be left in their perspective sections within the article and in the trivia? If there is too much confusion on this, I feel we will need to overall revamp the MoS and make all our editors familiar with is.
I agree with you, and as a matter of fact, I have found much of the material of this caliber annoying me as well. Much of these guidebooks and video game non-canon stuff belongs only in the trivia sections and not in the infobox directly. - PrinceZarbontalkcontrib 01:16, April 25, 2013 (UTC)
Re: Backstories from guide books
Those are official info about the character's backstory, they belong to the main article according the MoS. It is the move to the trivia sections that should have been discussed first. Info are added to trivia only if they do not belong to any section in the main article. Those moves you made had to be discussed before being made. I request you revert the pages to what they were before the edit war and discuss the changes you want to make on the talk pages. Those are the rules of the wiki. Apply them, it's also what was stated on User:10X Kamehameha's talk page and the other users also agree that those info have to be restored to the character's bio (see 10X Kamehameha's talk page). JeangabinTalkContrib 23:38, April 24, 2013 (UTC)
10XKamehameha is my very loyal comrade when it comes to the formatting and the MoS, so before you go completely full throttle with the "it is the move to the trivia sections that should have been discussed first" bit, remember that the articles were never originally constructed in that method when they were initially set up. So in the last year or so, I found many things very distasteful on the articles themselves in terms of the non-canon material finding its way in the primary bio sections. You can try all you want with pushing the Daizen and video game material as canon to the formatting and MoS, and if need be, I will bring this forward to 10X so it is properly adjusted on the MoS, so that we won't have this problem anymore. Frankly, I am baffled that anyone would even try to push non-anime and non-manga material into the primary focus of each article when it is nothing but trivia. - PrinceZarbontalkcontrib 01:10, April 25, 2013 (UTC)
Please take a look at my current collection and the pieces I need, which I have marked with red. Anyone who can help me with my Zarbon, Dodoria, and Cui collection, please be sure to give me a heads up. All the pieces I am missing I have highlighted with red markings and a red numeric. I am currently missing 5 Zarbon pieces (out of 54), 6 Dodoria pieces (out of 36), and 3 Cui pieces (out of 10). Anyone who can help me locate these 14 pieces or anything I may have overlooked in relation to these characters, I would greatly appreciate it. - PrinceZarbontalkcontrib 01:04, April 26, 2013 (UTC)
Two things
1. Are tour missing parts supposed part of the characters collectible pages or for a personal hobby? Just wondering.
2. This user's profile art as I'll put it that he has on both sides is starting to obscure the wiki. Do I take it up with him on fixing it or is that an admin's job. It happened before but I don't remember as I just returned from a 1 year leave of absence.
3. Speaking of the collectibles how are they going?
4. I renamed my account and two comments disappeared from a blog but my comment replying to someone on it still shows up in my contributions The Wikian Who Has Long Since Forgotten His Name (talk) 21:07, April 26, 2013 (UTC)
I'll try my best with this...
1. The missing parts are those I need for my personal collection. I need help from wikians to locate them for my collection.
2. You need to let that user know himself because we can't alter user pages unless they provoke vandalism or have crude language, or some form of extreme/nude images.
3. The collectibles articles are fine. I'm well around 120 articles for separate characters.
4. Comments should still show up as they are to be deleted separately if at all. They aren't going to disappear as they have no attachment to your account via member settings. If it's something you don't want seen, you can probably adjust them or delete them yourself from blogs. - PrinceZarbontalkcontrib 21:52, April 26, 2013 (UTC)
hi.
Can u tell me pls
why shenryu(i didn't know who write ryu and why) became shenron ( i thought it must be shenlong)
Tjakari has come on our chat (Degrassi Wiki) and he pretty much invaded it with very rude and homophobic remarks. Also, not only did he come on, but a mod came on our chat too. He/she isn't invading though..js'
{{SUBST:CrAsh/Sig}} 22:12, April 28, 2013 (UTC)
I remember this character from before. However, I myself don't ban based on chat alone; so if this colorful person decides to "invade" the wiki itself, I will be pleased to deal with him. In the meantime, pass this message along to comrade 10X as chat is more his area of expertise. - PrinceZarbontalkcontrib 22:23, April 28, 2013 (UTC)
Collectibles
Hey, I got your message about the Collectibles articles. I understand, gotcha. By the way, that Master Roshi collectibles article, sometime could you undelete it and fix it? The info I had wasn't exactly right. {{SUBST:User:Jadenyuki93/sig}} 14:23, May 2, 2013 (UTC)
Delete This Photo
Please Help! Someone just uploaded hentai of Marron. I tried to make a new version by replacing it with a Roblox screenshot, but it didn't do anything. Hentai needs to be deleted, and please hurry!
Actually, I just got the replacement to work. See you around!

Thanks for the heads up, if you get see anything else in the future you are unable to delete or alter, notify me and I'll be glad to if I'm online. - PrinceZarbontalkcontrib 01:02, May 5, 2013 (UTC)
Two users in a row uploaded hentai-esque images. I hope it stops here for now. Thanks for the heads up. - PrinceZarbontalkcontrib 01:43, May 5, 2013 (UTC)
Help PZ - Again
Sorry to need you again, but this guy is currently being a vandal, can you block him? Thanks, Buuuuuuuuuuuuuu!! 00:22, May 6, 2013 (UTC)
Gave him a two-week block. - PrinceZarbontalkcontrib 00:24, May 6, 2013 (UTC)
Thanks. But now this guy is a vandal >:| Not sure where they are coming from. Buuuuuuuuuuuuuu!! 00:35, May 6, 2013 (UTC)
Sorry, just noticed 10X is on and got him. Buuuuuuuuuuuuuu!! 00:36, May 6, 2013 (UTC)

Please check with comrade 10XKamehameha in regards to this ban. If it's an automatic ban, then I can't unblock it because I was never responsible for blocking you in the first place as it is not in my place to decide unblocking someone whom I did not block. - PrinceZarbontalkcontrib 19:03, May 7, 2013 (UTC)
Help before I overturn my desk
This guy is vandalizing pages, such as putting a link to what he saws is a porn site - not clicking it to verify though. Buuuuuuuuuuuuuu!! 03:40, May 8, 2013 (UTC)
