User talk:J Greb/Archive Sep 2012

Just a question

Hi J Greb! I'm a new user and is very interested about catwoman and batman. I was just asking why I can't create a page about IGN's list of Top 100 Comic Book Villains as you said that wikipedia doesn't copy lists of magazines but IGN is like AFI, a website dedicated to media and comics, not a rubbish magazine like Wizard. So, I was just wondering if I could recreate that deleted page if you would allow me? Thanks! TheBat&TheCat (talk) 10:25, 2 September 2012 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (File:Ambush Bug Nothing Special 1.jpg)

Thanks for uploading File:Ambush Bug Nothing Special 1.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Hazard-Bot (talk) 04:08, 6 September 2012 (UTC)

Need help with infobox

Hi J Greb. I have tried unsuccessfully to make {{infobox D&D creature}} into a collapsible infobox. Can you help me fix that, or would I have to create a new one kind of like what you did with {{Comics character list header}}? BOZ (talk) 13:57, 30 August 2012 (UTC)

It really depends on what you want to do with it. The list header is defaulting to a collapsed box since in most cases only the "Additional reading" section has content.

What part of the D&D box were you looking to colapse?

- J Greb (talk) 22:28, 30 August 2012 (UTC)

I was thinking of using it on a page which would look something like List of G.I. Joe video games - that's a pretty good example of what I'm trying to do, I think. The VG infobox is already collapsible. BOZ (talk) 22:35, 30 August 2012 (UTC)

hrm... {{Infobox}} does not have a collapse option so it looks like {{Infobox video game}} was locked with tabular formatting to allow the collapse.

An {{Infobox D&D creat colapse}} could be reverseed from the VG infobox.

Cool, I'll try copying it and see what I can get - I'll let you know when I do, if you can help me set it up right. BOZ (talk) 14:23, 31 August 2012 (UTC)

I tried adding this, but no such luck (unless I'm doing something wrong). I'm going to ask at the Wikipedia:Help desk and see if someone there can take a look. BOZ (talk) 16:22, 6 September 2012 (UTC)

Witwicky

Hi, just popped by to note that I've renamed and history-merged Sam Witwicky to Spike Witwicky as the content had been copied to the latter title and was later listed at WP:RM. Thought I'd let you know in case you want to take a look, considering that you semi-protected the redirect earlier and the article has been edited primarily by IPs under the other title.

The Punisher a Superhero?

User Ash Loomis[1] is calming that the Marvel comic book character the Punisher should be listed as a Superhero even though everything about the character doesn't Categories him as that at all. The only reason this user has come up with so far is that just because an enemy of his is listed as a Supervillain (which was wrong), he should be listed as a Superhero and that doesn’t make any sense. But you see the Punisher lives in the Marvel world where it's full of Supervillains, he eventually runs into them.99.174.168.3 (talk) 03:24, 17 September 2012 (UTC)
