{{BebopKate|time=22:50, January 26, 2010 (UTC)|text=Ah, looks like we missed some images from our last clean out; all of those were dated from ages ago. Thanks for letting us know about them, Xion; I'll take care of them. | {{BebopKate|time=22:50, January 26, 2010 (UTC)|text=Ah, looks like we missed some images from our last clean out; all of those were dated from ages ago.

As for the talk bubbles, I have no issues with them if a user wants multiples; as long as they keep them to one page and remain responsible for the coding and maintenance, I'm not going to concern myself with them. The only issue I have is if someone is uploading massive amounts of non-wiki material to use as their avatar; one or two is fine; ten is not. It looks like those folks all use existing avatars, however, so as long as they can keep up with them and don't cause broken links or other page issues, I don't have a problem.}} | As for the talk bubbles, I have no issues with them if a user wants multiples; as long as they keep them to one page and remain responsible for the coding and maintenance, I'm not going to concern myself with them.

ETA: Oh, and the image/talk bubble/user page policies are all on or linked to the [[Help:New user guide|New Member Guide]] now.}} | |||
{{Xion4ever|time=23:33, January 26, 2010 (UTC)|text=@ Kate: No problem, I'll finish searching through the user image category for any stragglers. | |||
I'm sure the multiple talkbubbles (more than seven) will later turn into a problem; eventually one user with thirty talkbubbles will delete some.. But I digress, its safe to conclude (for now) that multiple talkbubbles are okay as long as they don't break any of the rules Kate has said and that users are allowed a couple of user images. Is there anything I missed in the conclusion? | |||
Edit 02:10, January 27, 2010 (UTC): I went through the [[Category:User images]] template; could an admin go back over to see if I missed anything. Also, some of the images have two category titles (User Images and Articles for Deletion), mainly because my computer is being a pain. -_-}} | |||
{{MM841|21:09, January 27, 2010 (UTC)|I am going to start deleting them now. Thanks for your help Xion4ever. If anybody has any objections, speak quickly.<br>'''EDIT:''' http://i418.photobucket.com/albums/pp262/MM841/deletionspree-1.jpg <br>Done.}} | |||
{{BebopKate|time=22:29, January 27, 2010 (UTC)|text=Good grief, man! That's got to be some kind of record. I honestly thought we got rid of most of that stuff ages ago. Guess it just slipped in-between the updates.}} | |||
{{Xion4ever|time=22:41, January 27, 2010 (UTC)|text=Your welcome, thanks (both of you) for deleting them! ^^ Oh and Ultima that is an insane amount of edits.. Haha, you didn't plan this all along did you? <small> Just kidding!</small>}} | |||
{{MM841|23:26, January 27, 2010 (UTC)|I think it is a record, but that does not matter really. What matters is that deleting things is super fun. Oh, and i have been planning to delete all the items in the articles for deletion category, but I just had not found any free time up until today.}} | |||
{{ZTG|time=22:28, February 14, 2010 (UTC)|mickey=Personally I think a user should be able to have as many as they want. I fell special though, I was mentioned 3 times! Still to Random and LA, I know how to make them now, so I know what I am doing. I even made Sonic123678 a talkbubble. Still, I really think that we can have as many as we want. Oh yeah, Xion, you may want to change example 1 to 28. I will get rid of all of my talkbubbles if one asks. I will be lazy and save to coding to a word document. I think I will do that now so I don't get a warning for my talkbubbles ^_^.}} | |||
{{Xion4ever|time=22:33, February 14, 2010 (UTC)|text=This part was settled weeks ago. Don't just delete the coding, any removed talkbubbles you put on other users talkpages will appear as blanks! This is why I dissaprove of more then seven talkbubbles, but oh well. Either way, as long as they don't show blanks and what not, you won't be warned.}} | |||
==Reopening== | |||
{{Xion4ever|time=16:56, February 13, 2010 (UTC)|text=Okay now that we got the user images cleared out, its time we focused on [[:Category:Videos|this]]. I've go through and added the deletion template to the videos that weren't being used/weren't relevant. But could an admin/someone go through and see if I missed any? Also, the articles for deletion category is filling up rapidly. | |||
But I digress, do we have a video policy anywhere? Most of the videos we had/have are either on articles or on userpages.. The articles I can understand, but for userpages..can't they just use the coding?}} | |||
{{BebopKate|time=18:54, February 13, 2010 (UTC)|text=I would think video policy would be similar to image policy...but for some reason I think we had a disagreement on that somewhere. Let me dig around... | |||
Yay, yet another goodie to inevitably add to the New Member Guide. | |||
ETA: Okay, I've deleted some of the more obvious ones we don't really need. I want to check on a few, though, to make sure they've got good quality counterparts linked in the articles. I do need to leave, so I'm afraid things will have to wait unless another staffer wants to jump in.}} | |||
{{Dan da Man36|time=19:31, February 13, 2010 (UTC)|happy2=Hey there, if it helps to clear up space on the wiki, I'd be happy to delete my talk bubble images and link them in from photobucket. Here they are: [http://kingdomhearts.wikia.com/wiki/File:Dan's-soratexthappy1.png] [http://kingdomhearts.wikia.com/wiki/File:Dan's-soratext2.gif] [http://kingdomhearts.wikia.com/wiki/File:Dan's-Soratextwisdom.png] [http://kingdomhearts.wikia.com/wiki/File:Dan's-Soratextvalor.png] [http://kingdomhearts.wikia.com/wiki/File:Dan's-Soratextmaster.png] [http://kingdomhearts.wikia.com/wiki/File:Dan's-Soratextfinal.png] [http://kingdomhearts.wikia.com/wiki/File:Dan's-Soratextanti.png] [http://kingdomhearts.wikia.com/wiki/File:Dan's-Soratextsanta.png]. I'll nominate them for deletion in a second...}} | |||
{{TNE|time=02:19, February 14, 2010 (UTC)|text=Touching on the number of talkbubbles. My actual number (including the userbox) would be... easily 12 ? 13 ? It all depends on how many emotions a character has. | |||
But yes, again, uploading user images which are not related to the series onto the wiki is against wiki policy. | |||
As for video policy, I placed in the new MOS that uploading is highly discouraged. A simple embed from YouTube would suffice.}} | |||
