User talk:Onizuka-gto

Hi Onizuka-gto.

I've been trying to raise a suggestion regarding the English translation of Volume 4 but since the "system" never recognised any change log if all I simply edited was the comment in the summary box at the bottom, my suggestion never went through.

Anyhow, the title of volume 4 currently stands as the The Vanishing of Suzumiya Haruhi and the first thing that has always come to my mind in the past is that it just doesn't read well. To check out the translation of the Japanese word, I looked up 消失 (which is pronounced something along the lines of "shiyoushitsu" I think) and what it accurately translates to is 'disappearance". This translation of the kanji is ideal as not only it is accurate (disappear is synonymous with vanish) and the substitution of "vanishing" with "disappearance" is grammatically correct.

Hence I would suggest the title of Volume 4 be changed to: The Disappearance of Suzumiya Haruhi.

Regards,

Hi again.

I've read your message. Oh and thanks for the advice. So yes, I shall proceed to raise this point in the format/style guideline tomorrow.

Cheers.

New Images

Yeah, these images are definitely from the novels. Personally, I'd like to see someone come up with a better scan of volume 8.

New editor?

I just sent you a reply in a PM on the forums. Sorry about the surpise! Anyway, time for me to watch Ep 9 (and actually understand the dialogue)!

--BlckKnght 15:45, 30 May 2006 (PDT)

Regarding recent IP

The original Japanese word is "バッタ(batta)", so "grasshopper" or "locust" is correct. Because "locust" is confused with "cicada" in USA, I think "grasshopper" is appropriate.

So was his comment. I also think the erasure was a mistake?

Should you take back the Yellow then?

velocity7, Jul 18 2006 12:37 EDT

I just realized... there is a good possibility that they intended the edit but something screwed up their connection and they lost it for 18 seconds, and the wiki database might have accidentally picked up the incomplete send or something? During that time, the person might have changed IPs (dynamic IP).

velocity7, Jul 19 2006 19:07 EDT

Yellow?

You forgot about 64.93.73.62. Anyways, if you're not around am I able to issue Yellows?

IP spamming : a solution

Hello there

well, sorry to read you hate cats :)

Down to the point, I've seen quite more and more spam by bots theses last few weeks, so I think you'll be interested in this ; Well, I'm not too sure you're the one having server access, so if I'm wrong please forward to the right person.

The mediawiki spamBlackList extension prevents any save containing known spam adresses. All explanations about installing it should be on there.

I also suggest using the current wikimedia spam list here for starting, since that should cover most spams.

DarkoNeko talk 11:08, 24 July 2006 (PDT)

meow =_=

seeing that the extension has been installed, I did some minor edits to simplify it (a few more badwords, less url) some hours ago, but it seems to has gone mad -- filter blocking edit on the spamlist page itself, and blocking badwords even outside url on the wiki... (althought, I'm not sure whereas it was already doing that before my edit or not)

I tried to blank the page so I could restore the original list afterward, but... it's still bocking at saving : internal list seems not to have been refreshed with the page content, althought in should do so 10/15 minutes, and it's been almost hald an hour now.

So, well, sorry for the mess ; I don't know exactly what kind of bug is currently happening

Could you please try to restore the old version ([1]) to see if it correct the problem ? If that don't work, someone on IRC/#wikimedia-tech also suggested to delete completly the page and restore it a few moment later with the right version.

I'll continue asking on the mediawiki tech chan for now, hopefully someone will wake up andknow exactly what the problem is :)

DarkoNeko talk 04:21, 30 July 2006 (PDT)

I somehow managed to restore it ^^, I just had to remove a few word so it accept saving the pageagain (s.tikipad, p.hentermine, a.dipex -- still active so I can't type them directly right now)

I'll do some more tests to try to re-add them again (when the setting are auto-refreshed from the page) and not break anything ^^;

DarkoNeko talk 06:05, 30 July 2006 (PDT)

Hmmm, it seems that the changes made in the page are never refreshed to the actual script list (at least, even after 5 days)... I wonder why ^^;

DarkoNeko talk 04:07, 4 August 2006 (PDT)

You can ban User:Testuser's IP as well. Browse through his edits, compare them to the spam added afterwards, make your decision. Though that is not going to be a great help most likely. Earwin(talk)

wiki, ZnT

Meow :)

about the ZnT editorial team, it's unlikely : english is not my native language (I'm french), so apart from a few typo I can't correct anything :/ But once it's moved on wiki, I think I can do most maintenance related things (navigation bar, etc.)

I'm not sure it's possible to read-protect mediaWiki pages (more if it's only some pages and not all pages), but I'll search about it and come back to you in a few moments/hours, hopefully with an answer :)

DarkoNeko talk 09:08, 12 August 2006 (PDT)

Well actually, when I say I'm experimented of wikis, it's from an "user" point of view : I'm sysop/bureaucrat on the french wikipedia, but I've never installed a wiki myself :)

I'm not sure what the last guardian tried, but I found that :

Well, preventing access for every page of wiki is not the goal so the "simple" access right by group won't do... but if you create Custom namespaces (the namespace is what's before the ":", like in "User talk:Onizuka-gto"), you can affect special permissions to each namespace independantly.

In our case, the namespace Zero_no_tsukaima: (and Zero_no_tsukaima talk:) could be created for this project, with "no permission for anything" by default , the people participing in it would be added to the special project group, and only that group would have access to the page.

I've no local wiki to test it myself, but apart from the installation, the settings should be something like :

//creation of the 2 custom namespaces
//the first custom namespace start at 100 on every wikipedia, there must be a good reason so please do the same :)
$wgExtraNamespaces = array( 100 => "Zero_no_tsukaima:", 101 => "Zero_no_tsukaima_talk:");

//if the permissions are "false" by default, don't mind theses following lines
$wgGroupPermissions['*']['ns100_read'] = false;
$wgGroupPermissions['*']['ns100_edit'] = false;
$wgGroupPermissions['*']['ns100_create'] = false;
$wgGroupPermissions['*']['ns100_move'] = false;
$wgGroupPermissions['user']['ns100_read'] = false;
$wgGroupPermissions['user']['ns100_edit'] = false;
$wgGroupPermissions['user']['ns100_create'] = false;
$wgGroupPermissions['user']['ns100_move'] = false;

At least, according to the help pages

and the ZeroProject user should be added to the "NamespacePermissions Extension"-created "nsZero_no_tsukaimaRW" and "nsZero_no_tsukaima_talkRW" groups

Voila, hope I helped :)

DarkoNeko talk 10:52, 12 August 2006 (PDT)

hmmm²

after further search, I found http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Preventing_Access#Setting_permissions_for_a_Group_on_a_whole_new_Namespace that should explain things better than I did ^^;

DarkoNeko talk 11:01, 12 August 2006 (PDT)

I guess it won't hurt to warn about this : don't create zero_no_tsukaima:smth (or other futures custom namespaces) page before the namespace is software-ly created, or it may cause problems

For that extension, the pages indicated "1.5 or higher" so there should be no problems... I hope ^^;

About the communist thing, I don't really agree : it IS implemented that you can prevent non-identified people from reading a wiki... the problem that is, basically, it's either for all pages or none. But well, maybe the "access-by-namespace" feature we're needing will be fully integrated in the 1.8 version, we can hope :).

DarkoNeko talk 15:55, 12 August 2006 (PDT)

Er..."Software-ly" created? : about this, I meant creating it forehand with the administration thing (I read it can be added directly here with the 1.7 version), so it appears in the namespace list here. The main problem to add pages with a "fake namespace" before the creation, is it'll be counted as being in the "main" namespace instead of the real one (like Zero no Tsukaima:teaser is currently) -- well maybe there are other problemes, but I never heard about them :)

I don't really like the idea of putting an email on a public wiki (spam bot collecting adresses and all), mail send doesn't work on this wiki >_<

Navigation template

Meow :)

First, I had some problem with my mails, you could you please confirm wether you received the one I sent you a few days ago ?

to the main topic, I'm working on a template to replace the current "navigation bar" code at the bottom of each chapter.

(here was some code)

There is one little flaw : the parameter is the same for the adress and for the display (that's explains why "Chapter1" is displayed instead of "Chapter 1")

We can either rename the pages so there is a space, or add 2 separate parameters for the display (which IMO, complicate it quite a bit compared to the simplicity the template is supposed to offer)

Which one would you (or big boss) prefer ?

DarkoNeko talk 13:50, 15 August 2006 (PDT)

NB: please note that I won't have access to internet starting friday evening until the end of august

Nav-same

Meow :)

About the template, this diff comment gave me the idea, and also, I saw an (aborted) attempt of doing so in the templates pages

The 2 box are the same, it's on purpose :) The advantage of having a template, well, it's just taht the day you wants to change the navigation appareance, you just change the template and not all the page... but appart from that, you're right about the fact it doesn't hold much interest (plus there is not that many pages to change)

About the search bar, the one currently appearing is broken : I suppose theLastGuardian changed the link directly in the code or something (but Special:Search is still available if typed directly).

Also, I wondered for some times why the spamlist didn't update, but I surprisedly had an edit blocked yesterday because the page contained "display:none;".. I didn't quite understand ^^; could you please ask him about this ? (you'll need that code to make the search bar disappear anyway)

DarkoNeko talk 16:05, 16 August 2006 (PDT)

Fate/stay night rename proposal

...is located here. I've prepared everything to be moved from "Fate-Stay Night*" to "Fate/stay night*" (original name), and (if no complaints are received) I'd like old pages to be deleted. Thanks beforehand.

Upd.: ...and yes, index page is now duplicated under new name Fate/stay night as well. Feel free to proceed with deletion of old pages - there's nothing valuable left that wasn't copied to new pages. - Const2k 15:47, 4 May 2008 (PDT)

Okay, now almost everything is as I wanted it to be. Thanks, oni. Just a couple of actions more, to finish this matter:

Судьба-Ночь Схватки:Пролог День3 is still online, though it is copied byte-to-byte to Судьба/Ночь схватки:Пролог День3

Main page still has 'Fate/Stay Night' in 'Interactive/Visual Novels' subsection of 'Active Projects'. Shouldn't it be 'Fate/stay night' instead?

SHnY and other Vietnamese PJs

I noticed that you've added Chapter 1 Vol.2 for SHnY and created temp. links for the Vietnamese PJs. I'm sure it's a great help since recently I have some problems when connecting to B-T by my PC, the link will stupidly change to http://project/XxX with no reason ~.~ About SHnY and ZnT PJ, their leaders still editing some typing & grammatical mistakes (to tell the truth there's a lot of them :p) , so maybe it would take some more time to post the translation here, especially when I'm the only one who can update the wiki page for them T_T --Nanaya 04:06, 13 August 2009 (UTC)

Asking permission for Baka to Test to Shoukanjuu Vietnamese

Hi, I came across the light novel named Baka to Test to Shoukanjuu after Suzumiya Haruhi was down. I find Baka to Test to Shoukanjuu really interesting. I would like to translate it into Vietnamese using the translation on baka-tsuki. Would you mind if I use it as source? Since I intend to post it on vnsharing.net, I'll update my translation on baka-tsuki too.

Thank you for reading

ps: I have completed 2 chapters already. It will take sometime before I can get acquainted with posting translation on baka-tsuki. Sorry in advanced if the translation is not on-date.

Baka to Test to Shoukanjuu Vietnamese

Sorry for the late reply and thank you for your attention.

I've been working on chapter 9 of volume 1 which has 10 chapters in total. Ironically, it seems that the english BTS project hasn't been updated for months. I wonder if the translators were doing fine or they've posted it somewhere else? I would like to continue this project, but by the time I finish volume 1 and there is no new update (*sob)(*crying), I guess I'll switch to another project like Utsuro no Hako to Zero no Maria.

I'm very, very appreciate all you guys' work.

ps: by the way, I don't know how to deal with posting my translation on baka-tsuki. Really.

thx for the info

thx for the info. now, i'm re-update the vietnamese index of baka to test to shoukanjuu

favor:

Onizuka, could you possibly undelete the pages of shakugan that were translated before the project was abandoned? (excluding volumes 1-4)? it would save translators alot of work, and help attract readers to the project: currently it doesn't have even a teaser :( Thank You! --Saganatsu 20:39, 25 February 2011 (UTC)

Edit: Kira uploaded saved copies, so we don't it's probably not needed, but if if things get missed feel free to undelete --Saganatsu 22:28, 25 February 2011 (UTC)

Toshokan Sensou Novel Translation

Hey, this is Melithiel from LiveJournal. You messaged me about sharing my translation of Toshokan Sensou on Baka-Tsuki. Sorry I didn't get back to you sooner--I tried the Hotmail address on your profile, but the mail bounced back to me, and this was the only way I could think of to contact you. I'm definitely interested, but I'm not sure what form this sharing should take. Were you thinking of just posting links to my translation, or copying the whole thing into the wiki format you have on B-T?

Dear Meth, I think i'm in exactly the same situation that you mentioned, I still haven't figured out how to send messages on livejournal! So i apologise if you receive this message twice from....two different places. Also i'm confused that my link didn't work, but i have a solution! We have a Baka-Tsuki Forum: Baka-Tsuki Forums. Specifically there is a topic regarding this matter here:Toshokan Sensou Topic

My personal email is: onizuka.gto.uk (at) gmail (dot) com

Hopefully we can have a more detailed conversation with some solid contact, but to answer your question briefly, the solution we usually pursue is the latter method that you mentioned on my Wiki Talk Page. That is, I would like to take a copy of your script on Livejournal and "reconstruct" the pages together into clear divided Chapters as it was intended to. It will be quite a task i imagine, but if you have a copy of your previous script in one text file, that would be very helpful. Usually at Baka-Tsuki.org we allow scripts to be edited by volunteers, to catch out the little grammar & Spelling mistakes, however as the single translator to the project we can lock the scripts as well for your peace of mind> Hopefully you will receive this message and we can somewhat be able to communicate on one single method. :P

Best regards,
