Re: Asking ShonenSuki something that has nothing to do with this wiki
I had to ask ShonenSuki something, and I happened to see your post while I was there. I can't read kanji or any other Japanese writing, but I do know that those smaller symbols are called furigana. They're used to help the reader with pronunciation, I think. Darth Havoc (talk) 04:07, 9 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Darth Havoc is right, the smaller signs are furigana, usually written in hiragana or katakana. The basically show how a kanji is supposed to be pronounced. For example, the kanji would have the hiragana じんちゅうりき as the furigana. However, they can also be used to bring more nuance to the text. To take 人柱力 as an example again: it wouldn't be strange to see these kanji with the katakana, for example when an Akatsuki member is talking about Naruto as the jinchūriki of the Nine-Tails. I've also seen the kanji for  and  with the names for Sasuke and Itachi as furigana, or those of Gaara and Kankurō. --ShounenSuki (talk 09:40, 9 May 2009 (UTC)

Re: Ranks
Those are obsolete. We used to alias bureaucrat=kage, sysop=jonin, rollback=tokubetsu jonin, user=genin, anon=academy student just for some fun. However I removed this recently because people started to ask for "chunin exams" and "promotions" and were turning simple permission flags into a social status game. The userboxes were created then. ~ NOTASTAFF Daniel Friesen (DanTMan, Nadir Seen Fire) (talk) May 16, 2009 @ 19:17 (UTC)

Re: Parallels to "foreign" games and series
Some people tend to add parallels to other games and serieses hinting that Naruto is some kind of a rip-off of that game or series. From the top of my head I can only recall the parallel put to some monster in Dragon Ball called Ino Shika Cho, some minor (I think) Naruto character had "strong resembelence" to some Bleach character, and then we have these quotes: "Rock Lee (like several other characters through the series) hold a strong resemble and may even be based off of video game character Wangtang from Capcom's Arcade game, Power Stone. (...)". Are these things okay to have in the articles, or should they be removed? ~Hakinu (talk 21:13, 3 June 2009 (UTC)


 * Those kind of statements are pure speculation, they have no basis to them. Frankly you can round up a few dozen anime/manga/games, look for similarities between characters in them, and you're almost guaranteed to find some. If you're looking for something you're going to find it, that doesn't mean it's at all relevant to the series. If someone had some citation that Kishimoto was influenced by something, coming from an interview, then ya it makes a good trivia note. But comparing naruto to X of Y type of media and saying that part of naruto MIGHT be based on it, is junk. There's far more complexity to that, it could be completely random, or it could be that both of the things were influenced by the same thing, that doesn't mean any relevance between them. For example, Soul Eater has Shinigami, Bleach has Shinigami, and Death Note has Shinigami. All are based of Japanese Shinigami, that doesn't mean that the series have any connection to each other or were based on each other in any way. While this one is obvious a lot of these subtle "might be based off of" may actually be because there was something they both were based on in Japanese myth which we, as foreigners are not familiar with. ~ NOTASTAFF Daniel Friesen (DanTMan, Nadir Seen Fire) (talk) Jun 3, 2009 @ 21:22 (UTC)

Re: Spoilerblocks
I am well aware of the chapter's releases on various websites. Part of the way to keep this Wiki running at tip top efficiency is to know what is going to happen before the masses. And to make sure it runs efficiently, you need to have a system. Having spoilers thrown into the Wiki a week before the chapter is "released" to the masses can cause problems, more problems than I would like to deal with. Therefore we've adopted the "Friday release" policy. There is a similar policy (albeit better) at the Bleach Wiki. This "Friday Release Policy" however is more or less an unwritten rule that has been worked without problems for years.

Yes this was alot longer than I expected it to be.--TheUltimate3 (talk) 00:46, October 9, 2009 (UTC)


 * Actually, because I typically don't bother coming here constantly on Thursday, spoilers put up get past my watchful eye. The Friday thing still stands even if the chapters are released on Thursday, it's just when I log on and see like 10 edits across the site I just tell myself to let it go.--TheUltimate3 (talk) 01:22, October 9, 2009 (UTC)

Help!!
Hi Hakinu!!! Hey, i was wondering... i've just realized that you were the one who substitute Ao's principal image. And i was wondering if you could help with something? An image from the last chapter where we can see Kiba, Sai, Sakura and Rock Lee arriving with Naruto at the Land of Iron!!! Can you upload a better image?! Or something please? I've been searching all this time but i always find the same image I uploaded :S, thanks for everything. --Kiba91 (talk) 15:51, October 17, 2009 (UTC)

Re: Re: Naruto Genin (aka (fanfare) Hakinu butting in!)
It was the mission to meet Sasori's spy at Orochimaru. Shikamaru mentioned it in episode 54, something like: "next time I can help you, now when the god-dam chunin exam is over". Jacce | Talk 14:11, October 18, 2009 (UTC).

Re: Your work?
They're similar to my Sharingan image, but I didn't make those two images. --ShounenSuki (talk 21:54, October 26, 2009 (UTC)

Re: What does it do?
I am hoping it'll force the server to put up the right picture. On articles it still shows the Scanlation versions and I am hoping deleting the scanlation the raw will be up.--TheUltimate3 (talk) 21:24, October 28, 2009 (UTC)

Image
OK, but could you tell me something? I was trying to upload new version of a picture several times, but maybe I didn't quite understand how to do it. First I press "Upload a new version of this file", second - should the picture be with the same name or it doesn't matter and in the section "File changes:" what should I write: Example - "Better quality" or all the data for an image? And when I did that the new picture looks like the old one(don't know why) or when I try to make the new picture "current" it makes new pictures and doesn't make it "current". What I am doing wrong?--Donatelo (talk) 16:57, November 1, 2009 (UTC)
 * OK. Here what I understood. My Cache is the problem and from what Dantman had written you, should I understand that only I see the old image instead the new one? And when this Cache problem fix itself I will see the new picture? And this problem can fix itself all by yourself but it will take time - how long? And I can force it to fix itself but I didn't understand what is that "green refresh (purge) tab beside the watch tab"?--Donatelo (talk) 18:05, November 1, 2009 (UTC)
 * Yep, still nothing. I did clearing Cache several times but still don't want to show me the new picture. Tell me something: What image do you see here: The Missed Target?--Donatelo (talk) 19:12, November 1, 2009 (UTC)
 * Sorry about that. :) You said: "in the file history there are 2xnaruto and choji going D:... agh, it's odd!" This is my big problem. It doesn't show the right picture in file history. And what you see is that in file history, not the real picture. That is why I give up from uploading new version of image. But then see this one: Yagura (anime). You should see picture of him 1280:800, but I think you actually will see a stretch picture of him. I uploaded 640 and 1280 and in file history 640 is fine, but 1280 is a mess. Why is that, what is going on? I don't know. It is really complicated. I can't even set it to "current".--Donatelo (talk) 19:33, November 1, 2009 (UTC)

Re: I can't agree with you there
The rule to not upload new image over a older image was made as part to avoid people uploading completely different images on top of older ones. For example, using Xandotablet's as an example, he uploaded a Part II images of Sasuke's Sharingan overtop a Part I image. That picture was removed and deleted as it was not the same image. However, pictures of Madara's Mangekyo Sharingan and Izuna Uchiha were replaced by their exact same image, except in the anime format. Not taking into account Madara's Mangekyo image was broken anyway, it didn't break the Image Policy because the image replaced was the image shown, but in higher quality (think how we replace scanlation images with RAW images of the same thing. Same concept except different media.)--TheUltimate3 (talk) 18:17, November 19, 2009 (UTC)
 * I don't know what Dantman said, but yeah. If anything this can be argued as a loophole. As long as the rational is updated to match the new image (in the loophole cases)then things should be fine. Anyway that's my stance, if you feel it requires further explanations or a final ruling ask Dantman.--TheUltimate3 (talk) 18:58, November 19, 2009 (UTC)

Re: which one?
I also figured they were actually the same character, but I haven't been able to check so far. I only managed to verify Chichiyasu and his mention in of the pre-timeskip filler episodes. Is it possible you could perhaps verify if the Land of Swamps and its daimyō are mentioned in the Shippūden movie? I could then check if the names are the same. --ShounenSuki (talk 01:49, November 21, 2009 (UTC)

Re: another translation question
The kanji used to write the word daimyō (大名) literally mean great name.

According to my sources, the word isn't short for, but for. However, this does come from.

In the end, the name means something like: "a person who controls a large amount of named lands". A feudal lord, in other words.

However, I'm not an expert on etymology and the origin of words is, more often than not, murky and ambiguous. I'll try to find a more definite source for you, if you find it necessary. --ShounenSuki (talk 21:34, November 21, 2009 (UTC)
 * We could also remove the translation completely and link to Wikipedia. Let them take care of the real-life origins of the word and simply focus on the Narutoverse application here. --ShounenSuki (talk 14:57, November 22, 2009 (UTC)
