Redirect

Hi there Ppk01. I can't seem to figure out why you would create a page called SBEMAIL! to redirect to rock opera. Could you please explain? -- Tom 16:39, 16 Jul 2005 (UTC)

"'SBEMAIL!' is the title of Strong Bad's rock opera from the email of the same name." Ppk01 17:12, 16 Jul 2005 (UTC)

Fan of Japan

Hey, there. I just saw you added a list of Japanese character names for the H*R characters. I'm a big fan of both H*R and Japanese (a friend of mine in Hawaii is teaching it to me even). But, unfortunately, my computer can't display other characters like in Japanese. Do you have the romanji forms? --DorianGray

Be under no illusion; don't think I actually know Japanese. I know katakana and that's about it. I'm not sure if I typed them out correctly, but I'll be happy to provide the romanji as well. Thank you for reading. Ppk01 20:36, 15 Aug 2005 (UTC)

That'd be great. And I only know hiragana myself... And a few random kanji. I really only use my dictionary for making up names for my characters. --DorianGray

Revised votes

Hey Ppk01. In STUFF, only your bottommost vote to accept counts. You had two accepts on one item, and the upper one has been removed. If you'd rather switch them, you can. Thanks. — It's dot com 18:21, 16 Aug 2005 (UTC)

Sorry, I probably wasn't paying attention. I'll see to it that it won't happen again. Ppk01 21:13, 16 Aug 2005 (UTC)

Redirect controversy

Please stop making redirects to all the Strong Bad emails. The sysops are probably going to delete them anyway. Thanks. --BazookaJoe 15:09, 22 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Well, obviously the above is out of date. Sometimes things change. Sometimes you've got to help them change. You obviously did the right thing by starting this discussion, because you'll note that I agreed with you almost immediately. Then E.L. Cool agreed. He ran into the same problem you had when he started to make the redirects. But the issue didn't go away, and we were able to talk the issue through and eventually get it done. So the lesson here is, if you have what you think is a really good idea, challenge the so-called rules, and be prepared to back your idea up with well-thought-out discussion. As for credit for coming up with the idea for redirects, JoeyDay suggested this nearly ten months ago. As for stealing your glory, sorry, but that's the breaks. I've written an entire transcript only to find out that someone else uploaded the same transcript mere seconds before I tried to upload mine. And in this case, I'm especially proud that I was able to upload 110 redirects in less than 30 minutes, an average of one every 16.4 seconds. Thankyouverymuch.It's dot com 16:19, 18 Aug 2005 (UTC)
