Issues[edit]

I had stopped writing and editing articles here because two of those I'd written (Ranma_½, Super Mario Bros.) had been deleted for "not being furry". I don't agree with that because the Fruits Basket article (which should be deleted for the same reason) still exists. Of course I should have, you know, said something to defend why they should be here in the first place.

I've since learnt that not all stuff that fits the furry definition is furry and I guess I can live with that now (it's been more than 2 years dammit). So I would only do articles on stuff that's created by furries (although I have aspirations on writing an entry on Darkstalkers <of course it could share the same fate>). Editing existing articles is another story entirely.

Blast...judging from my tone, I guess I'm still hurt over this...

User:Sawblade5/Hawk[edit]

Is there any reason why the hawk article was moved to this user name? I almost moved it back, but upon checking the page history, the reason isn't clear (at least to me that is) --Tai 1 2014/05/25 (UTC)

The article was deleted for being unreferenced. A copy was moved to Sawblade's user space because they asked for it. Also, it didn't have any furry-specific content; we'd prefer to link to Hawk on Wikipedia in such cases, because otherwise we're just giving users a worse article to read than Wikipedia's. --GreenReaper(talk) 20:16, 25 May 2014 (EDT)

But it appears in the Species stub pages, also you could say that about a lot of species related articles. I'm all for restoring it, and someone (maybe me?) would properly work on it…just saying…--Tai 1 20:25 2014/05/25 (UTC)

We do say it for a lot of species-related articles! Frankly, we should probably say it for more - you're welcome to nominate similar stubs for deletion. If you would like to recreate the article with content actually relevant to furry fandom (like famous anthropomorphic hawk characters in art and literature, discrimination against hawks in fursuit games, etc.), you're welcome to do that, too. Basically, look for things that wouldn't make it onto Wikipedia. --GreenReaper(talk) 20:38, 25 May 2014 (EDT)

Michael Vega/Miu[edit]

I was planning to do a redirect from Michael Vega to Miu but the redirect was deleted (since 2010 according to the delete history. According to his page he is Michael Vega. I don't want to include it in the Miu article, but I think the redirect would be fine, at least it would get rid of the red link for Michael Vega. Tai 1 (talk) 20:19, 17 July 2014 (EDT)

Access the Miu article, hit edit, read the Curator's note for editors why there's no redirect at this time. Hope this helps. - Spirou (talk) 23:51, 17 July 2014 (EDT)

Thanks for the heads up.[edit]

Missed that one =) - Spirou (talk) 02:49, 3 December 2014 (EST)

"Minor edits"[edit]

We have a specific checkbox for that; its use means that people don't get email about such edits. While your edits are appreciated, a more specific explanation in the edit summary is still appropriate so that other editors don't need to look at the diff in recent changes or the article history to tell what you did. --GreenReaper(talk) 20:41, 14 August 2015 (EDT)

Ah…I see. It's just that I've never gotten flak for doing that before. Tai 1 (talk) 20:48, 14 August 2015 (EDT)
No worries. That's why I'm here, when I can be here! Just call me Mr. Flak. Or Green. ;-) --GreenReaper(talk) 20:50, 14 August 2015 (EDT)

Danke[edit]

Thanks for the vandal reverts, appreciated. - Spirou (talk) 21:34, 14 August 2016 (EDT)

Reinstated (wrong positive)[edit]

Hallo Tai;

You are back on the running. I checked the logs, and yes, you were banned by Rat by mistake during a spam rush, apologies. - Spirou (talk) 23:20, 10 December 2023 (EST)

Yes, you got incorrectly caught up in a spammer ban wave. I am fine with the ban being reversed. --Rat (talk) 01:01, 12 December 2023 (EST)
