Congratulations on Rollback!

The fact that it passed aside, in doing that RfR and being able to take someone's advice when they advise against something you had planned on, which is not an easy thing to do, you have earned my respect. :) DoctorPain99 _{ROLLBACKER} 23:17, 27 January 2012 (EST)

Gee, thanks. I wasn't sure that I would pass, because of previously mentioned reasons. Is it true that rollbackers can suppress redirects when moving pages? Mousehunter321 (talk · contributions) 23:24, 27 January 2012 (EST)

Unfortunately, no. Only admins can. DoctorPain99 _{ROLLBACKER} 23:46, 27 January 2012 (EST)

I think you would be even better as an Admin. But Rollback can still be good. ..... The Overmind 14:20, 28 January 2012 (EST)

Indeed he would, but we have already gone over that. Toast

Image deletion

When an image is deleted, a version is automatically archived, but only admins can see it. For example, the old HungryBox image can be found here. You can't see it, because you don't have the required user rights, but trust me, that's the image I deleted five minutes ago. That means that, if we ever need the image again, an admin can just undelete the page, or go to that URL and save the image to their computer, then upload it again. You don't need to be re-uploading images tagged for deletion to archive them. Penguin of Death 16:26, 29 January 2012 (EST)

Okay, thanks for letting me know. Mousehunter321 (talk · contributions) 16:34, 29 January 2012 (EST)

Sorry for getting carried away with stuff that was bad. ..... The Overmind 20:10, 30 January 2012 (EST)

Just keep in mind that sometimes blank fields in an infobox are kept to be filled in once more information is available. Mousehunter321 (talk · contributions) 20:44, 30 January 2012 (EST)

Friendly tip

Yes, you should remove red links to deleted files, but it's also courteous to also link in any replacement images for the file (i.e. the new Multiman Mode pic). --Havoc 48 >:D!!! 19:56, 3 February 2012 (EST)

I usually do link in replacement images when moving files/removing redlinks, but in your case, I didn't know what the new image name was. Mousehunter321 (talk · contributions) 22:35, 3 February 2012 (EST)

No

How nobody noticed this I don't know, but you using rollback on Dot's Smasher page edits (you know, when he was removing blank fields) was unacceptable. Rollback is for vandalism only, and that wasn't vandalism. I assume you did it to get the job done faster, but don't do it again, as it is misuse of rollback. BlindCol ours 20:46, 3 February 2012 (EST)

As you assumed, I used rollback to get the job done faster. The reason no one commented on it was because it was not a misuse of rollback. (Unless you're suggesting that everyone missed my 20+ consecutive edits that were in bolded green due to the high number of characters). I was following the spirit of SW:ROLL, not the letter. Additionally, I explained my edits on Dots' talk page. I would suggest you find something else to do besides berate users about their actions on this wiki. The majority of your past 50 edits have been to talk pages, the Smash Arena, or other minor edits. And frankly, couldn't you come up with a better section title? "No" isn't descriptive at all, and makes you sound more pugnacious than you are. Mousehunter321 (talk · contributions) 22:16, 3 February 2012 (EST)

My 50 most recent edits have little relevance to anything. I'm not as active as I once was so I don't do much, and when I do, it's nothing major. Also, how are you "following" the "spirit" of SW:ROLL? And I don't really care about what you think about the section title.BlindCol ours 22:29, 3 February 2012 (EST)

Mousehunter explained to Dots the fault with the edits before he rollbacked them. And really, the only issue with using rollback on non vandal edits is that you don't have access to the edit summary to explain the fault with the edit. As the explanation was made, there was really no issue with Mousehunter using rollback in those edits. Omega Tyrant 22:59, 3 February 2012 (EST)

You two guys have been getting into a fair amount of disputes lately. Blindcolors, while I disagree with Mousehunter's claim that you have an overly large amount of talk page edits, it may be best that you leave him alone for now. It's fine for you to raise concerns about rollback use, but I think the way you approached this was a bit too aggressive. Remember to try and see things from Mousehunter's point of view, and consider the fact that those rollback uses took up a large amount of recent changes, so it is likely that Dots himself and the admins here had little problem.

SW:RFA (cont.)

Come on, make an RFA. Like OT said, you would be good as an admin, and it'd be nice to have a new admin here. THE AVENGING BANDIT 18:37, 9 February 2012 (EST)

I agree but we gone over that and well just wait. ..... The Morning Sun 18:59, 9 February 2012 (EST)

Deletions

Thanks for tagging those! I'm about to head to dinner, so either another admin can swoop in while I'm out or I'll get 'em when I get back. Miles (talk) 18:49, 9 February 2012 (EST)

No problem! Those early SmashWiki(di)ans would probably look back and realize that it was more efficient to merge trophy info into the subject's article, instead of creating a whole separate page. If SmashWiki is still around in say, ten years, I wonder what the editors then will think of how we do things today. Mousehunter321 (talk · contributions) 18:57, 9 February 2012 (EST)

What's your method for finding all these (trophy) pages? I was thinking I could start deleting from the back end while you work on the front end (less +d edits in total). Toomai Glittershine The Interspacial 19:14, 9 February 2012 (EST)
