The point of Omega Tryant's protection of my user page was so that I would edit mainspace articles. I have made 40 edits now, so I think my edit count is close to being balanced. Do you have the power the unprotect that page?

==An idea==
Toomai, you know the Smash Arena? I've noticed that when voting is in progress, The "Winner" picure at the top is blank other than the word "Undecided 0-0". I was wondering if you could make it so that Smash Arena will show the current score and the picture of who is winning. It would be a help if you're in a rush. Thanks, <span style="font-family:Andalus; font-size:12pt">[[User:MetaIke|<font color="indigo">'''Meta'''</font>]] [[User talk:Meta Ike|<font color="purple">'''Ike'''</font>]]</span> [[File:MetaIke.png|34px]]  10:54, 3 March 2012 (EST)
:I doubt Toomai could do that unless he checks the Smash Arena every few seconds. [[User:Accoolx|Accoolx]] ([[User talk:Accoolx|talk]]) 10:57, 3 March 2012 (EST)
This was suggested before and didn't get far. There's a bunch of reasons why it's a bad idea:
*Doubles the number of edits required to keep things up to date.
*Updating the score may edit conflict with people who want to vote.
*Possibility of bias towards leader is increased.
In addition, the reason you give of "be a help if you're in a rush" makes no sense the way you're worded it. How does a 2500% increase in maintenance help me if I'm busy?

:It would at least be nice to stuff an image like this [[File:MatchupUnknown.png|19px]] in there, rather than just blank space. <small>lol 48,955 bytes</small> [[User:ToastUltimatum|<font color="ff8c00">'''Toast'''</font>]] [[File:Wii U Logo Transparent.png|17px|link=Special:Contributions/ToastUltimatum]][[User talk:ToastUltimatum|<font color="01a3c4">'''ltimatum'''</font>]][[File:Transparent Swadloon.png|26px]] 12:45, 3 March 2012 (EST)
::That's not a bad idea. I'll think about it. [[User:Toomai|Toomai]] [[User talk:Toomai|Glittershine]] [[Image:Toomai.png|20px|link=User:Toomai/Bin|???]] The Golden 12:47, 3 March 2012 (EST)
I suggest to do this: "Currently Winning:<winner> <nowiki>##</nowiki>-<nowiki>##</nowiki>. This is a modification of MetaIke's suggestion. One more note bring this to a forum. Anyways we can get a willing person (possibly me, but I have high school work) to watch that. Maybe on a daily basis, not hourly.

==Redirect==
You deleted [[Rugia]], but we have JP-name redirects, for example [[Dogars]] and [[Kabigon]]. [[User:Accoolx|Accoolx]] ([[User talk:Accoolx|talk]]) 18:52, 3 March 2012 (EST)

==Mr. Curious==
Can I just delete all the posts made by Curious on my user talk, and any additional he'd make in the future?

:I guess there's nothing wrong with removing future ones. Past ones however should probably remain. [[User:Toomai|Toomai]] [[User talk:Toomai|Glittershine]] [[Image:Toomai.png|20px|link=User:Toomai/Bin|???]] The Chilled 19:12, 5 March 2012 (EST)
::Ok. Btw, perhaps protecting both the article itself and the talk page is in order for the [[CrappyCaptureDevice]] page.
