User talk:Simant

newbie question
Hello I just joined the Naruto wikia site because I wanted to add the Hidan trivia. I saw that the trivia mentioned the fact that Hidan was on a head of lanterns in one episode. But when I put in trivia of Hidan originally having bangs, it was removed for being "too small" trivia. I thought Hidan having bangs was really interesting since it has to do with his initial design changes... Is there no where that fact can be added to his wiki because I feel like that's an interesting fact commonly overlooked. >n<

Hi Simant

This is Amanim from the Japaneseanime wikia website. So you just want to change my Naruto pages to lead to my website instead of the Narutopedia website?

Please response back today on my talk Page Amanim when you get a chance.

This is amanim I agree to use the Narutopedia website as an original source for my website (Japaneseanime wikia).--Amanim (talk) 11:42, January 10, 2014 (UTC). I also agree that I will still help out with The Marutopedia website, and That you can help me with my website as well..--Amanim (talk) 11:42, January 10, 2014 (UTC) Thanks for your help Amanim Amanim (talk) 20:54, January 10, 2014 (UTC) This is Amanim,

I gave credit to the creators of the Narutopedia websites editors for creating the website. For example I Know ten editors of the Narutopedia website. They are Simant,Itachi7000,Steeveo920,Ninjasheik,Sinedd11,Leafshinobi,RexGoodwin,IloveInoxxx,Snapper2,and last but not least Entondark. Without all their help on the Narutpedia website,so far. I would have never gotten this far to learn about the anime,or the characters,and their abilities. That's why I want to have permission to copy the text on my website. With permission from http://japaneseanime.wikia.com/ to have rights with the Naruto franchise from http://naruto.wikia.com/. I just need your permission to copy some of the text from the character pages only. So can I ? Response back to me on my talk Page when you get a chance. Oh I will also make my links go to my website instead the Narutopedia website, so this way the page links,attribution and License can be complete. Thanks amanim --Amanim (talk) 01:17, January 20, 2014 (UTC)

This is Amanim, I did read the link that you gave me ,and it said that each wiki contains information on which license applies to your use of the text. It say that it is my responsibility to understand and adhere to that license. The text from external sources may attach additional attribution requirements to the work beyond what is described on this page.

When re-using Wikia text that has been posted subject a Creative Commons license, you must provide attribution to the authors using one of the attribution methods described in the section above titled “Attribution.”

Attribution example when re-using Wikia content on your own website: It says that I would have to list the information from the website that I got it from,and put who it is license from.

So I have to use my own text to describe a page in order for it to be attributed and licensed? Do I have to put Attribution on all my character pages? Please response back --Amanim (talk) 03:10, January 20, 2014 (UTC)

Again, for the Italian Wikia.
Hello there. Maybe you remember that there was a guy bugging you about how to copy the templates on this wikia to the Italian one. That guy was me. Back then you said it was pointless to copy them since they would not work on the italian wikia without the extensions. I have honestly given up on understanding which (or what they actually are) extensions you were talking about, but I'm trying to create a template from scratch. That's why I'd like to ask you some clues (if you don't want to answer, then please give me some links to pages that could help me to become a decent if not good template editor). First off, how should I do in order to make a parameter disappear when there is nothing written in it (since I'm unsure wheter I'm saying it right I'll make an example: there's a character whose age is unknown. So how do you cancel the line about "Age" in the infobox?). Second, how do you hide for example the Jutsu section in the Character infobox, despite it actually having some links?--JOA20 (talk) 18:46, October 29, 2013 (UTC)
 * Hello. Not to get into this but I could not help but be attracted to the nature of the question. First, allow me to introduce myself. I am KiumaruHamachi or just Hamachi. I know how to make templates from scratch as I've been teaching myself for roughly 4 - 6 years. I I am more than willing to help you, if you so choose. --KiumaruHamachi (talk) 19:10, October 29, 2013 (UTC)KiumaruHamachi
 * Hi! I'm a basic template editor and I've made several templates from scratch. In order to make a parameter hidden when there's nothing written in it, you must use parser function hooks. I see that they've used the #if: function to do this ('cause I do too). Here's a demonstration:

You must separate the results by pipes ( | ). To escape pipe characters, use this template: Template:!. And in order to hide parameters like the Jutsu section, you must insert  to the code (just before the style attribute; e.g.  . Hope this helps!  Eternal  Beast  10:38, November 14, 2013 (UTC)

Template:Infobox/Slideshow
Hi, Simant! Can you help me with the Infobox slideshow? I've created an infobox slideshow but with a different code. As I test it, it has a wide gap at the top and a small one at the left side. I've used CSS to fix this problem but still don't work (I purged it). Eternal Beast  10:44, November 14, 2013 (UTC)

Sorry, kinda forgot this. Right, it would probably make more sense to have it this way: Rather than just a that we use now. So, what you think?--~Ultimate Supreme  13:48, November 19, 2013 (UTC)

Affiliation
Hello, Simant. Long time no see, I hope you're doing well. I would like to ask for affiliation between this wiki and Code Geass Wiki. I would like to request affiliation with Gundam Wiki as well. If you are interested, here is the banner. Thank you. 11:13, November 23, 2013 (UTC)

Lineage
The same way that you are blood related to your distant cousin but it doesn't mean you descended from his father's father, it is a falsity that the Rinnegan page lists and links the Uzumaki Clan as Senju descendants based on the statement that Nagato is of Senju Lineage, you do not apply particular coefficient of consanguinity to holistic coefficient of blood relationships, any Genealogist will tell you that, especially a holistic group which maintains distant not close blood relationships with the Senjus. Nagato could haven one grandparent or a great grandparent from either his patriarchal or matriarchal sides who is of Senju blood but it doesn't pertain that the entire Uzumaki Clan descended from the Senjus or the Younger Son, it is absolutely erroneous.

Questions about Sections
What do you think of sections like bukujutsu, Intelligence, things like that? Case by case and overall? Need opinions of other Sysops.--TheUltimate3 (talk) 12:29, January 5, 2014 (UTC)

Photo Uploading
Hi! Do you remember me? You said leave a message in your talk page when I have a question or help. Minato01 (talk) 05:21, February 1, 2014 (UTC)

Traffic
Just wondering if there's actually available data on this and if yes, is it sharable with ordinary editors?--Elveonora (talk) 15:33, February 11, 2014 (UTC)

Re: Forum
No, the staff say they want to see how this feature does. So not for a while atleast. It has been the complain of all wikis using them, so the staff would probably re-think it.~Ultimate Supreme  06:48, February 12, 2014 (UTC)

Re:Thought
You mean as a replacement to the smw factbox? I think a link in infobox should suffice~Ultimate Supreme  05:48, February 16, 2014 (UTC)

Kekkei genkai annotation
For some reason, the "smoke transformation" annotation to the kekkei genkai parameter in infoboxes is bringing up one of the svg images ShounenSuki made for me back in the day. Maybe because it is considering only the "smoke" part of the name? Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 16:38, March 6, 2014 (UTC)

Hello. Today I noticed in my messages that there was a link to a blog post entitled 'our content' detailing the failure of Wikia central enforcing copyright. Being that I am not one of the sight's admins, nor even one who edits the wiki, I found it odd that I would be tagged in the post. I tried to find what you were referring to in that post and saw the Japanese Anime sight, but wasn't clear if that was what you were referring to or if it was something else. I would just like to say that if you are referring to something that I am doing, please let me know, and I would be happy to reverse any actions that you see as copyright. Any infringement on your content is purely unintentional, and I will make no hesitation to do something if need be. Thanks. Catero5 (talk) 06:02, March 15, 2014 (UTC)Catero5

Referring to my previous post, never mind. I went to another wiki that I have visited twice and found that I had nine notifications that had nothing to do with me. Sorry to bother you. Feel free to delete my posts altogether.Catero5 (talk) 06:16, March 15, 2014 (UTC)Catero5

Question
Hey. I saw a user make an edit to a user talkpage but I don't know whether it should be kept or not. The user who posted the message left it on the talkpage of an inactive user and posted their email address, not something that should really be messaged on a public wiki. Thought I would ask you to see what you think. --Speysider Talk Page 21:51, March 20, 2014 (UTC)

Opinion sought
I would be very much appreciative of your opinions of this discussion. Many thanks :) --Speysider Talk Page 11:35, April 7, 2014 (UTC)

"With" annotation
The "with" annotation, used in collaboration technique articles, is exhibiting an odd behaviour. When the user inside the annotation, after the with, has a macroned o in their name (for example, ), the entire thing becomes a red link. This doesn't happen with other macroned letters as far as I checked. For example, if a Hyūga is the one after the with, the annotation works just fine. I already asked UltimateSupreme and he has no idea what might be causing it. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 16:14, April 8, 2014 (UTC)

Video games infobox template
Hi Simant, can you add an additional check box for "Microsoft Windows" in "Game system"? Because every time when any article contains this template edited, it automatically removed after edition. Check Naruto Storm Revolution article history if my request is not clear for you. Thanks so much. — Shakhmoot  (Talk) 15:07, April 25, 2014 (UTC)

Handling vague age in infoboxes
Simant, do you think there's some way we could tweak and/or  so that when an age like   is used – for infoboxes like Infobox:Mei Terumī – the s gets trimmed for the part that goes into SMW while the s is output into the visible portion?

DPL question
Hai Simant. I was wondering: I'm trying to develop a template that uses DPL, similar to the one used here for archivelist. Problem is, I don't know how to get the numerical value from the page title (eg /Archive_1) so I can use it in the display text. Any tips? The template is here: w:c:elderscrolls:Template:UTPArchives. Thanks! --Speysider Talk Page 21:04, June 15, 2014 (UTC)

Do you think it would be possible to convert some of our infoboxes to use Lua?~Ultimate Supreme  08:00, August 17, 2014 (UTC)
