Regarding the "Green Tree Memories" page and disputes

Hoy Owen. I've seen your most recent edit on the Green Tree Memories page and looked at the source you provided. I believe you have misinterpreted the source and thus have reverted it again (though not completely undone it). Now, before you do anything else regarding that page, let me quickly remind you what the dispute policy is so (assuming you still want to challenge this point) you don't repeat what happened last time. (full details on the Dispute policy page)

A dispute happens when an editor (in this case you) makes a change to a page and another editor (in this case me) comes and disputes it by reverting the edit. If this happens, and the disputing editor cites a valid reason for performing the undo in the edit summary (as I have done), it is now your responsibility as the person who initially brought up the change to take the discussion to the article's talk page (or the disputing user's talk page if that's more appropriate) to debate why you believe your disputed change is valid. From there, the debate takes place until a conclusion is reached (or is not reached, in which case it moves to Step 2 as defined on the policy page).

That said, if you want to dispute this point, the next proper step is to go to the Green Tree Memories talk page and make your case under a new section. If you simply try to insert the edit again, you will violate the policy and have a strike made against you. I hope I made this clear, and I'll see you around. --Fubaka (talk) 23:40, 30 September 2019 (UTC)

Also, I just looked at the dispute policy page again, and I seem to have forgotten to elaborate on what a dispute is there. So I will take basically what I've said to you here and put it on the page so we don't have any further confusion going forward. Keep in mind, you are not in trouble yet. I'm posting all this for your benefit so you don't end up in trouble again. --Fubaka (talk) 23:51, 30 September 2019 (UTC)

Let me clarify on the source in question. I believe you interpreted it based on the title card of the source alone instead of what's actually listed in the Japanese credits for Super Kirby Clash. In this case, at around the 2:17 mark are the credits for エンディングソング (Ending Song). The name of the song in Japanese is written as 『グリーンツリーメモリーズ from 星のカービィ』 , surrounded by the Japanese equivalent of quotation marks or italics, further supporting the claim that the "from Kirby" part really is supposed to be part of the name of the song in question. The English credits equivalent doesn't really use italics or quotation marks to identify "Green Tree Memories from Kirby" at all, which must have led to the confusion a few days back. – Owencrazyboy17 (talk) 23:58, 30 September 2019 (UTC)

I see. That does appear to be more compelling. Apologies for all the fuss. I am still working out the kinks in the policy, and I did get frustrated with you because you wouldn't respond to me on your talk page earlier. I will go ahead and change the title of the article and reinstate your edit. For your part, I will remove your block from my mental record, so no hard feelings, eh. Just remember to use talk pages more often. :P --Fubaka (talk) 00:14, 1 October 2019 (UTC)

Good work so far

Hoy Owen. I am just writing to let you know that I appreciate the work you've done to keep watch over the wiki and monitor recent changes made. You've been very vigilant and I don't want to give the impression that your work has gone unnoticed. Keep up the good work. --Fubaka (talk) 03:31, 18 December 2019 (UTC)

Thanks for that! – Owencrazyboy17 (talk) 15:13, 18 December 2019 (UTC)

Hello

I am here for anti-vandalism work. --InvincibleGal321 (Talk to me!) 12:17, 2 January 2020 (UTC)

Well, thanks for the message. It's good to know to have another user specialize in driving away vandalism on this wiki! – Owencrazyboy17 (talk) 14:59, 2 January 2020 (UTC)

Kirby's Super Star Stacker

Just so you know, Kirby’s Super Star Stacker is indeed an official name. Your edit was all well and good, just thought you might want to know. --YFJ (talk · edits) 23:12, 15 January 2020 (UTC)

Yeah, I was wondering if that was worth noting or not... I probably should've asked first. Either way it seems like just Star Stacker is the most current official title if we go by Robobot (the OST also supports this). StrawberryChan (talk) 23:23, 15 January 2020 (UTC)

Regarding Power Ploy and the other unfinished anime pages

Hoy Owen. I noticed that you made an edit to the Power Ploy page. I should point out that those later anime episode pages were made quite sloppily by another user, and it is my intention to eventually rewrite them completely, so unless you want to beat me to the punch, you might just want to ignore those pages. I've been considering just deleting them outright until I can get to those myself. --Fubaka (talk) 18:27, 21 February 2020 (UTC)

Yeah, I'm just the kind of guy who fixes the minor stuff when I first point them out. I'll let you get to work on the others. I'll say this, you've been doing a good job on those anime episode pages recently. Keep it up! – Owencrazyboy17 (talk) 18:53, 21 February 2020 (UTC)

Thank you. I was hesitant to do them at first, but the work's actually quite enjoyable when compared to many other wiki doings. --Fubaka (talk) 18:55, 21 February 2020 (UTC)

Administrator

Hey, Owen! You've been working hard these past few months and have made consistently helpful edits to the wiki. How would you like to be promoted to administrator? In addition to the rights you already have as patroller, you'll be able to delete pages, block users, and edit protected pages, to name a few. You will also be given authority to settle disputes, and you will be entitled to a pink username and a platinum medal on your userpage. Is this something you're interested in? --YFJ (talk · edits) 21:16, 3 April 2020 (UTC)

Definitely! – Owencrazyboy17 (talk) 00:38, 4 April 2020 (UTC)

And done! Pink name coming shortly! --YFJ (talk · edits) 02:02, 4 April 2020 (UTC)

Important

There's a rather serious wiki matter being discussed in the NIWA Discord right now that I want your input on. As far as I know you do not have a Discord account, so I'm writing this message to encourage you to do so. If there's some reason you cannot, please let me know and I'll try to find some other way to contact you privately. Thanks! --YFJ (talk · edits) 15:58, 11 April 2020 (UTC)

Sorry about that. The second best thing in my case would be...sending a e-mail? That's about as close to private as you could possibly get. – Owencrazyboy17 (talk) 16:56, 11 April 2020 (UTC)

Actually, I was thinking I could post what I think should be done on my userpage instead. Can't really think of any other alternative options off the top of my head... – Owencrazyboy17 (talk) 17:47, 11 April 2020 (UTC)

So, we did eventually come to a solution. Many staff discussions are held on Discord and I do encourage you to create an account so you don't miss any such discussions. (In case you're wondering, it was about RMV and it ultimately led to his demotion.) Thanks! --YFJ (talk · edits) 18:21, 11 April 2020 (UTC)

The name of "A Well-Earned Rest"

It seems you don't have a Discord, so I'll have to explain it here. According to Fubaka, old head of the wiki, arrangements still count when going through the naming process, while originals are still preferred. However, the original song was never given a name, and even the one you wanted to give it was conjectural (lowest priority). The KTD arrangement was chosen for the name because it fit the majority of the uses of the theme. Here's a link to the original message from Fubaka, asking about what the name should be (if you ever do get a Discord account): [1] -iliekchez (talk · edits) 02:50, 15 April 2020 (UTC)
