I prefer to reply to comments on the page they were left, so if I left a comment on your page, reply there it is on my watch list. If you leave a comment here, watch this page until the discussion is done as I will only leave replies here. Comments which I find to be uncivil, full of vulgarities, an attempt at flame baiting, or that are excessively rude may be deleted without response. Comments from harassing editors or wikistalkers will also be summarily removed without response. If I choose not to answer, that's my right, don't keep putting it back. I'll just delete and get annoyed at you.

Are you here about an edit I made? You may want to check my user page first to get some general info on some common questions about edits I make. Here are some quick links as well:

• Explain the assessment you made on this TV or film article
• Why did you give X article Y tag(s)?
• Why did you change the reflist tag in an article to the references one, or visa versa?
• What do you mean you're "wikibonked"?

Anything I can help with?

Is there anything I can help with? I'm not really doing anything and I wanna help you out. : ) – J U M P G U R U @^{Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia} 16:06, 3 September 2008 (UTC)

Hmmm...I was going to try to find some refs on reception for Shojo Beat, to make sure its complete before I attempt to send it up for GA, particularly review type stuff. I've been having to deal with some other stuff, though, and haven't had time. Want to see if you can find anything? -- [[::User:Collectonian|Collectonian]] ([[::User talk:Collectonian|talk]] · [[::Special:Contributions/Collectonian|contribs]]) 16:10, 3 September 2008 (UTC)

I'll try. : ) – J U M P G U R U @^{Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia} 20:37, 3 September 2008 (UTC)

By the way....how does List of series run in Shōnen Book look? – J U M P G U R U @^{Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia} 20:43, 3 September 2008 (UTC)

I couldn't find one.... : ( Sorry. You must be having a rough week, huh? – J U M P G U R U @^{Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia} 20:33, 4 September 2008 (UTC)

No prob, thanks for looking. I'll go ahead and send it up for GA...cross your fingers! :) And yeah, been a pretty rough week. Sorry for not answering earlier. For the list, I think its looking okay so far, though probably don't need to break up the tables by years. I'd just do one for each decade. -- [[::User:Collectonian|Collectonian]] ([[::User talk:Collectonian|talk]] · [[::Special:Contributions/Collectonian|contribs]]) 21:43, 4 September 2008 (UTC)

I'm crossing mine. ; ) I totally understand that it's been a rough week. I could kind of tell by the vibe of some of your messages you posted before. : ( Anyway, thank for the advice on the list. : ) Anything else I can help you with? – J U M P G U R U @^{Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia} 01:55, 5 September 2008 (UTC)

Wait a minute.... Shōnen Book is monthly, doesn't that mean it should be by year? – J U M P G U R U @^{Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia} 01:59, 5 September 2008 (UTC)

Nah, having the tables by decade is fine. May also want to fix up the headers to use specific sizes so they are consistent from group to group instead of jumping sizes. -- [[::User:Collectonian|Collectonian]] ([[::User talk:Collectonian|talk]] · [[::Special:Contributions/Collectonian|contribs]]) 02:42, 5 September 2008 (UTC)

If I do it by decade, I will only have two sections for the years. Let's say every five years, Kay'? – J U M P G U R U @^{Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia} 02:46, 5 September 2008 (UTC)

Yeah, but two sections is fine. It doesn't have to have a ton of them, it just breaks things up more than necessary. I suspect some might even question of the list is notable or necessary for a defunct magazine. Though why is there a table in the main article as well? -- [[::User:Collectonian|Collectonian]] ([[::User talk:Collectonian|talk]] · [[::Special:Contributions/Collectonian|contribs]]) 02:49, 5 September 2008 (UTC)

I'll explain things a little better. Shōnen Book is the root of all Jump magazines. If I combined the list with the main article, it would make the page massive. :P The table on the main article is just the series that have become famous. Like Speed Racer. – J U M P G U R U @^{Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia} 15:12, 5 September 2008 (UTC)

I'm still thinking on this one. I think, though, that if there is a standalone list, in this case the table needs to come out of the main article because famous could be seen as subjective. Since it isn't being published anymore, maybe just a short, sourced prose summary with a link out to the list. The more we work on these various articles, the more I wonder about even having the magazine titles serialized, but that's a discussion for the project, I think. Sort of back and forth on it. -- [[::User:Collectonian|Collectonian]] ([[::User talk:Collectonian|talk]] · [[::Special:Contributions/Collectonian|contribs]]) 02:09, 6 September 2008 (UTC)

Sounds good, I don't get what you mean by, "the more I wonder about even having the magazine titles serialized". Could you explain that better. :P – J U M P G U R U @^{Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia} 06:06, 6 September 2008 (UTC)

Sorry, didn't right that well LOL. I meant I wonder if the articles even need a full list of the titles that are/were serialized in it. I'm guessing the coming Shojo Beat GA should help get some outside views on that. Soon as I can get someone to copyedit it, and its checked against the B checklist and any corrections made, I'll also be nominating Shonen Jump. :) -- [[::User:Collectonian|Collectonian]] ([[::User talk:Collectonian|talk]] · [[::Special:Contributions/Collectonian|contribs]]) 06:28, 6 September 2008 (UTC)

Sounds good. The point of the lists is that it gives American people a view on how the magazine ran, and all the Japanese series a normal English person won't know. This is kinda' weird we're having two conversations right now. – J U M P G U R U @^{Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia} 14:56, 6 September 2008 (UTC)

Um.....sorry. : ( – J U M P G U R U @^{Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia} 00:10, 6 September 2008 (UTC)

For what? -- [[::User:Collectonian|Collectonian]] ([[::User talk:Collectonian|talk]] · [[::Special:Contributions/Collectonian|contribs]]) 01:10, 6 September 2008 (UTC)

Never mind...I just really hate argueing with people. : ( What're you doing right now? – J U M P G U R U @^{Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia} 01:22, 6 September 2008 (UTC)

Oh, didn't think we were arguing :P Just been a long week and been tired so slow answering. At the moment, just came back with my dinner (I am so so sick of take out and will be uber glad when my kitchen remodel is done!) and plan to sit here and read. Mowed my lawn for the first time and discovered that mowing in 92 degree heat makes your heart do weird little things :P Tried to find a movie to rent, but the few that looked interesting were all out. Ain't that always the way on a Friday night? :) -- [[::User:Collectonian|Collectonian]] ([[::User talk:Collectonian|talk]] · [[::Special:Contributions/Collectonian|contribs]]) 02:06, 6 September 2008 (UTC)

I just went to Borders to look at the manga section. Tommorow I will go to a comic store called Meltdown, it has a lot of cool stuff, and a lot of very rare manga. :P You're getting your kitchen remodeled? :-O I just got mine too. : ) I totally understand about the take-out food. *_O – J U M P G U R U @^{Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia} 06:06, 6 September 2008 (UTC)

Cool on rare manga. My local Half Price books has some volumes of Sailor Moon. I'm tempted ot buy them all up to keep some as backups for my volumes and eBay the rest :P And yep, I am remodeling the kitchen. Doing most of the work myself. Ripped out the three ugly layers of lineoleum, ripped out all the tile counters, and am slowly working on refinishing the cabinets. Already have the new appliances in place, but I still have to do a little work on the counters before they can bring my new counters. Also have to replace the drywall on the backsplash and get the outlets checked to make sure they didn't get damaged during the demo ;) Need to decide if I'm going to make the effort to refinish the wood floors, or put down some tile there. But once the counters are in, I'll at least be able to cook again! :D -- [[::User:Collectonian|Collectonian]] ([[::User talk:Collectonian|talk]] · [[::Special:Contributions/Collectonian|contribs]]) 06:28, 6 September 2008 (UTC)

T-t-t-t-t-taaaake-out fooood. *_O At Meltdown I got two rare Battle Angel Alita issues by Viz, and I'm debating on wether I should get the Cobra Viz issues or not. What's your eBay user?, I might wanna buy some stuff. :D – J U M P G U R U @^{Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia} 14:56, 6 September 2008 (UTC)

I Think My Older Brother Used to Listen to Lagwagon

I'm not quite sure why you deleted the entry I added for this EP. I know it was missing details but I had added it as a starting point until I could flesh it out. On top of that I'm bewildered by the comment you made on the Lagwagon entry when you undid my edit: do not attempt to get around deletion by making a new article!. What attempt to get around deletion? I added the entry yesterday, then edited the Lagwagon entry to point to that. Mtrolley (talk) 15:14, 4 September 2008 (UTC)

The original article for that album was deleted by a redirect, so you made a new article instead. That's getting around deletion. The album is not notable, so please stop trying to keep remaking it. -- [[::User:Collectonian|Collectonian]] ([[::User talk:Collectonian|talk]] · [[::Special:Contributions/Collectonian|contribs]]) 15:22, 4 September 2008 (UTC)

Sorry, I didn't realise that there had been an article that had been removed. I wasn't trying to get around a deletion, just to contribute. Mtrolley (talk) 15:36, 4 September 2008 (UTC)

P. M. Pu‎

Why are these people so adamant about keeping an article about a non-notable scientist? --Kraftlos (talk) 20:37, 4 September 2008 (UTC)

No idea, but it seems like people are just going to let this guy keep that school paper up here. :( -- [[::User:Collectonian|Collectonian]] ([[::User talk:Collectonian|talk]] · [[::Special:Contributions/Collectonian|contribs]]) 21:48, 4 September 2008 (UTC)

I'm quoting wikipedia policy that explicitly states that they're wrong and they wont listen. WTF --Kraftlos (talk) 00:35, 5 September 2008 (UTC)

Oh, trust me I know how you feel. In album deletions for unnotable albums whose articles are just a release date, picture, and tracklisting, I quote policy and guidelines and people basically keep it anyway with variants of "I like it" or "I like the artist" *sigh* -- [[::User:Collectonian|Collectonian]] ([[::User talk:Collectonian|talk]] · [[::Special:Contributions/Collectonian|contribs]]) 00:37, 5 September 2008 (UTC)

• I would like to add a point amount the import of Pu's work. I am not familiar with the word "geek" used at the deletion page but most likely Mikhail Gromov cannot be considered one. Now Gromov systematically references Pu's paper in his seminal publications, including the important paper "Filling Riemannian manifolds" from '83 as well as his famous book, which has by now gone through 4 editions. Hope this helps. Katzmik (talk) 07:48, 5 September 2008 (UTC)

Not really, but congrats. First person I've seen get to keep his school paper on Wikipedia in ages. -- [[::User:Collectonian|Collectonian]] ([[::User talk:Collectonian|talk]] · [[::Special:Contributions/Collectonian|contribs]]) 14:04, 5 September 2008 (UTC)

On the Post Oak Mall front

1) The cinema issue continues to bother me. Maybe it wasn't 1999, because the other reference posted was also pretty suspect. What if it really did close circa 1997 or so and you might not find it in the papers because it wasn't there in the first place? And if it did close in 1999, would that mean I could open up a given 1998 paper and find the movies playing at that mall (that and Cinemark and the Schulman theater)? I did, however, find a reference for the club "Oxygen", which was one of the many clubs at Post Oak Mall's cinema space (Cactus Canyon and then Rockies). The Oxygen reference is here.

2) Steve & Barry's University Sportswear "ate" about seven or eight in-line spaces, that's why it's an "anchor store without a exterior exit". Could I "prove" this by showing a map of the stores near Dillard's and Sears before Steve and Barry's?

3) There's been a whole lot of incidents at the Mall over the last past five years...bank robberies, bar fights, and such...shouldn't that be put in as well?

4) Oddly enough, there's a blue link over the "Chinese fast food stall", which leads to "Chinese food". It could probably be de-linked, but I linked it to Manchu Wok instead.

5) Smoothies Ice Cream and Yogurt also serves gyros, apparently.

Well, that's all I got for now when reading the page. Please respond...TheListUpdater (talk) 21:49, 5 September 2008 (UTC)

1 - it may bother you but unless/until you find another ref saying otherwise, it stays as it is and I think the reference is fairly correct. I haven't found a reference in the eagle because I haven't had time to do more newspaper archive hunting. I did just buy a house and all, and as the eagle archives are mostly not indexed, looking up articles requires a manual search. A time consuming process. For the partial index that does exist, I did write down all possibles on the paper, which I think does include 1997...however all that is still currently packed and I'm not sure which box it is in :P I can't even find the print outs I did from my last trip right now, and I hadn't finished typing up all the stuff there. Argh. I also eventually want to make a trip to Carnegie, which has more local books than all the other branches, but they are all ones that can't be checked out.

2 - no you couldn't prove that by linking to a map, nor does it really matter "why" it is an anchor store without an exit, just that it is :P

3 - No, there is nothing unusual about any of that at all, or notable; all malls have crime, all cities have crime

4 - agreed and delinked

5 - yes, I know, and I think salads and baked potatoes and some other stuff, but for now its just listed by its rather generic name :)

Hopefully I can get back to the research soon...at least, as soon as I find the box that stuff was packed in. I have like 3 boxes of papers and notebooks :P -- [[::User:Collectonian|Collectonian]] ([[::User talk:Collectonian|talk]] · [[::Special:Contributions/Collectonian|contribs]]) 01:03, 6 September 2008 (UTC)
