I've noticed you still don't appear to have an opinion on that article.  Did you get to read my explanations on that talk page as to why it is not a real running gag? [[User:Bad Bad Guy|Bad Bad Guy]] 17:07, 15 February 2008 (UTC)

Wait, {{p|l=http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php?title=Fonts&diff=546361&oldid=545974 what}}? I see through your plan: to flood the history with similar edits and summaries to throw us off our guard so that you can sneak your hidden ALT text agenda edits in. Crafty. ;) On a more serious note, why not do the 280px adjustments ''en masse,'' or at least in groups of, say, 5 or 10? — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 17:11, 25 February 2008 (UTC)

:Oh wait. I get it. You changed the content of the image, thus requiring a new caption. Hmm. Maybe it would be better for you to upload images with new names if you're replacing the actual content (as opposed to just making the format better), rather than overwriting the old files. — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 17:13, 25 February 2008 (UTC)

::I wouldn't edit [[Fonts]] at all except that it's a live page and I don't think it ought to have an image column width of 500+ (nor should its ALT text be incorrect) for any amount of time.  As far as overwriting images, I think it's been appropriate where the filename is the name of the font (which is ideal, IMO).  Yes, the history of [[Fonts]] is being affected by all of this, but that's [[User talk:OptimisticFool/Font Name List#The Fate of Fonts|another subject]].  {{User:OptimisticFool/sig}} 18:17, 25 February 2008 (UTC)

IRON CUP'd!

Nice work, Fonteroy!
I'm buying you a pizza.

Thank you, Mr. Couchyman, for all your dedicated and hard work on Fonts and the related. Here, have some soup. --Mario2.PNG Super Martyo boing! 02:48, 29 February 2008 (UTC)

Mr. Couchyman? Nice.... Anyway, thanks for the stew my Brother. (Makes me want to shout "Amen, Brother!" like those TV evangelists.) But I want a pizza trophy when I'm done, okay? =] OptimisticFool 05:36, 29 February 2008 (UTC)
As requested, here is your pizza trophy. Awexome job, OF. Homestar-Winner (talk) 00:47, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
Right on! Thanks, Winner! =] OptimisticFool 05:05, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
Very nice work, OP. Vera nice work. I've been following your font edits since almost day 2 and I went over most of your uploaded images (as part of my daily log track). It looks wonderful, awesome, it rocks and I wish I had thesame kind of stamina you had while making this. Rock rock on and all that. — Elcool (talk)(contribs) 08:20, 5 March 2008 (UTC)
Yes! I've been checking it out, too. Awesome jorb! Respect. :-) Loafing 11:17, 5 March 2008 (UTC)

ASCII

How did you make the whale? Surely you didn't do it manually, right? -DAGRON 15:42, 19 March 2008 (UTC)

Where to Allow Second-Person

In response to your recent edits to "change 'your' DVD's audio language..." in various articles (which are essentially reverting the changes that SlipKnot and I made), I can't really say if that's good or bad. The community still hasn't figured out where second-person is and isn't appropriate and, frankly, HRWiki:Article Cleanup has come to a standstill because of it. I've asked on the talk page for Article Cleanup about if articles on games should use second-person and haven't gotten a response yet. We all need to have a discussion and set up some guidelines. For now though, don't revert anything, okay? -Brightstar Shiner 23:46, 3 May 2008 (UTC)

It's certainly nothing personal; when something is considered a "major revision" it ought to be discussed first. In this case, for every toon that has DVD commentary this would have to be re-written (assuming a rewrite is community-approved), so I'd call that pretty major. So, until it is discussed, I'd advise against changing this particular wording on the pages you proofread, thus eliminating any chance of me reverting anything. =] To let you know, though, I think I'd support a rewrite, but at this point I have no suggestion as to the wording. But I digress.. the wording is not a subject for my talk page. OptimisticFool 23:59, 3 May 2008 (UTC)
That's okay; I didn't take it personally. ^_~ I also know that your talk page won't turn into the host of the discussion. I just wanted to let you know that I won't change that particular part of DVD commentaries or proofread any more articles until something is worked out. Maybe I can jumpstart a conversation on Article Cleanup to figure out second-person. This is getting very tiring and I wish I didn't feel like I'm the only person supporting this project... -Brightstar Shiner 00:23, 4 May 2008 (UTC)
