==Well now this wiki has a reference section.== | |||
Feel free to add any of the references from the French version if you want. [[User:Antiyonder|Antiyonder]] ([[User talk:Antiyonder|talk]]) 03:24, 11 January 2021 (EST) | |||
:Thanks for the consideration, but I usually don't edit here apart from interwiki links, because I'm already pretty busy with the French version. I can share with you the references I find for you to add, though. --[[User:Tigali|Tigali]] ([[User talk:Tigali|talk]]) 03:31, 11 January 2021 (EST) | |||
::Sounds good. I'll make sure to credit you on my user page and talk page for the article, and anyone else who might share info. [[User:Antiyonder|Antiyonder]] ([[User talk:Antiyonder|talk]]) 03:36, 11 January 2021 (EST) | |||
:::You don't have to, but I appreciate it. A lot of references I have found perusing the DQ subreddit, people pointing things out, like this here thread: https://www.reddit.com/r/dragonquest/comments/f6yie9/i_was_just_watching_some_anime_and_then_wtf_does/ . As for the ones in the French page currently, there's this Katrielle Layton puzzle looking like DQII, StreetPass Quest on the 3DS being a quite obvious parody, Me when I reincarnated as a slime when a slime says "I'm not a bad slime", The disastrous life of Saiki K. when a character looks like III's hero, and Will Riker in Star Trek Picard episode 7 "Nepenthe" cooking bunicorn. And loads more I haven't added yet. | |||
::::I'll keep that in mind, just that I like to have permission from those who first upload the info if I don't come across it myself (my user page for example having acknowledgements of some material I implemented in past edits). One I would like your input on is that yes I am an ''MLP'' fan:-). One episode of ''FiM'' Season Two centering around the character Spike is titled "Dragon Quest" and it's later established that the one who rules over dragons is given the title/status Dragonlord. Sound like someone on the staff being ''DQ'' fans or too generic/vague to be counted as such? [[User:Antiyonder|Antiyonder]] ([[User talk:Antiyonder|talk]]) 18:58, 11 January 2021 (EST) | |||
:::::I'm not familiar with MLP (yet. I have a huge backlog of animated series to watch), but I think I'd add it. Not sure. Determining stuff like that is tough.--[[User:Tigali|Tigali]] ([[User talk:Tigali|talk]]) 07:14, 12 January 2021 (EST) | |||
::::::Well if you have Hulu or HBO Max, there is ''Adventure Time''. Doing two marathons in a row was a pretty fun time to be had. And Max incidentally has a sequel miniseries to the show still going on. [[User:Antiyonder|Antiyonder]] ([[User talk:Antiyonder|talk]]) 08:40, 12 January 2021 (EST) | |||
:::::::I heard good things about this series and I def wanna watch... Still, call me chauvinistic, but I wanted to prioritize French animated shows for the time being. Code Lyoko, Wakfu, Valérian et Laureline, etc. ^^--[[User:Tigali|Tigali]] ([[User talk:Tigali|talk]]) 09:06, 12 January 2021 (EST) | |||
== A big misunderstanding == | |||
Vandalism? If I wanted to commit vandalism (and I never wanted to), I would not send you a link to the "vandals team" page on day-one and wait a month without acting. This is a big misunderstanding. | |||
Also, a bot would need '''administrator privileges''', something that I obviously do not have. | |||
Let me start '''from the beginning.''' After Follower of Light reverted my edits, I looked for the Staff Lounge of Dragon-quest.org . On the [[Dragon_Quest_Wiki:Community_portal#Community_interaction|'''Community portal page''']] I found the "community interaction" section with the link to the forum. I thought it unusual that you had a forum on a different website, but after all Discord is a different website, too. My message was addressed to the administrators and editors of Dragon-quest.org , therefore I invited Follower of Light, and then I thought the people who replied there were members of the Dragon-quest.org community. ''(<small>The last guy was very toxic, indeed, therefore I replied politely to avoid any escalation and repeated the purpose of the discussion. No further activity.</small>)'' | |||
Just to be clear: | |||
* My misunderstanding was that I thought that the forum on Woodus.com was exclusive for administrators and editors of Dragon-quest.org | |||
* Your misunderstanding was (understandably) to think that I was plotting behind your back. | |||
'''I assure you that I am in good faith.''' If you pass near Nantes (Pays de la Loire), I will be happy to offer you a dinner. --[[User:Abacos|Abacos]] ([[User talk:Abacos|talk]]) 15:14, 3 September 2023 (EDT) | |||
: '''TL;DR''' (<small>I guess this is the way to use this abbreviation</small>) If I wanted to commit vandalism (and '''I never wanted to'''), I would not send you a link to the "vandals team" page on day-one and wait a month without acting. This is a big misunderstanding.--[[User:Abacos|Abacos]] ([[User talk:Abacos|talk]]) 15:14, 3 September 2023 (EDT) | |||
::Seriously just stop, dude. You wrote "shall we launch a bot" or something to that extent on Woodus, because you just thought something HAD to be done about our pesky use of the word etymology. You've made a fool of yourself to a lot of people, and you asking me out to dinner (?) is yet another example of your difficulty in reading social cues. Seriously, I feel sorry telling you off, but after trying to be professional and help because linguistics is an interest of mine, I'm just at a loss here. As my friend put it, the heatwave makes us do crazy things. Have a nice rest of your journey, but please don't insist, you'd be screaming into the void at that point. --[[User:Tigali|Tigali]] ([[User talk:Tigali|talk]]) 19:33, 3 September 2023 (EDT) | |||
::Ah, just another addition. Maybe I've been needlessly combative about all that. I'm not the best social person, also neurodivergent, and going through other stuff when I started responding. Parting amicably is not a bad thing as far as I'm concerned. We won't come to an agreement, but I'm happy to not keep hard feelings.--[[User:Tigali|Tigali]] ([[User talk:Tigali|talk]]) 19:45, 3 September 2023 (EDT) | |||
Before you accused me of planning vandalism, I was starting to think that you were right and I was wrong about etymology. I wanted to ask you a few more questions to better understand, but I am afraid it is too late. | |||
About the dinner: if we were in the States or in a Germanic country, I would have invited you for a beer. Since I understand you are French, I thought you were ''une bonne fourchette'' like me. | |||
: >>> ''You wrote "shall we launch a bot" or something to that extent on Woodus, because you just thought something HAD to be done about our pesky use of the word etymology.'' | |||
No. Because the thread was going off topic. I wrote "shall we" just because I mistranslated the French pronoun "on". | |||
You are neurodivergent? Truth is, I am borderline Asperger (e.g. Sheldon Cooper, e.g. as you wrote, "difficulty in reading social cues"). If you are curious, I will tell you how I was stonewalled. Maybe you can explain me what went wrong there.--[[User:Abacos|Abacos]] ([[User talk:Abacos|talk]]) 20:27, 3 September 2023 (EDT) | |||
:::No, I'm good, really, that ship has sailed. Good night. --[[User:Tigali|Tigali]] ([[User talk:Tigali|talk]]) 20:48, 3 September 2023 (EDT) |
