Admining
I know I'm not really around, but please do me a favor and at least let me know before you give admin privileges to someone else.

Thanks :3333 --Koroku 04:56, 21 August 2009 (UTC)


 * Sorry about that, will do so. --Ainz ( talk 05:56, 21 August 2009 (UTC)


 * It's not the end of the world, I just kinda want to know who has "big" power and whatnot, since the automatic back-up system is, once again, borked. Speaking of which, i should make a back-up. --Koroku 06:50, 21 August 2009 (UTC)


 * Yeah, definitely. --Ainz ( talk 06:54, 21 August 2009 (UTC)


 * Please do! I'm not sure my OCD could handle having to remake 800+ pages... again.--devkyu 04:32, 24 August 2009 (UTC)

Digimon.net
There is no www. in that adress, also the way you change the adresses, all those are non-functuioning links Example for a working link: http://digimon.net/cat-digimon-dictionary/04-ta/tokomon/index.html Just to inform you. Also most pages look kinda messed up right now. MugenSeiRyuu


 * Oh right, thanks for that, I'll remove the "www" bit, all of this is due to the new Template:S being implemented, so I'm slowly going through all 260 Digimon pages with links on them. --Ainz 09:05, 23 July 2009 (UTC)

Good. Is that also the reason why some alternate Translations of names don't show up, like for Ravemon and Kentarumon?MugenSeiRyuu

Yeah, I'm just going through fixing the small flaws in the new design. --Ainz 21:09, 23 July 2009 (UTC)

Lightlowemon
Sounds good to me. Guy seems trustw orthy.--Daisuke Motomiya 21:07, 21 May 2009 (UTC)

Thanks very much Ainz for putting me up for Adminship, although I have to ask, what's that much different from before, besides being able to block, protect, and edit the protected? I just hope I can do well. --Lightlowemon 12:34, 31 May 2009 (UTC)


 * No problem! --Ainz 14:25, 31 May 2009 (UTC)

Uploading images
I get a "The upload directory (public) is not writable by the webserver." error when I try to upload. Are you able to upload anything?--Daisuke Motomiya 15:07, 1 April 2009 (UTC)

Who should we contact about this?--Daisuke Motomiya 15:24, 1 April 2009 (UTC)

Thanks. It's working again.--Daisuke Motomiya 03:34, 2 April 2009 (UTC)

On an unrelated note, can you translate Mimi's attack names (Otome no Nage Kiss and Unchi Tsukami) from her mock Digimon Analyzer? I figured we could put it Notes and References section for that episode since she doesn't have an Attack Techniques section on her page.--Daisuke Motomiya 14:16, 2 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Here. It's been done for a while.KrytenKoro06 13:12, 19 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Based on this, and other uses of U-chi, I want to say it basically means "Buttocks" (The title of the article translates as "When [u] ○ [chi] hits, the slot machine starts turning lively, “the bedpan”"). It would make sense - we've all heard the rumors, and she is the most feminine character in that season.KrytenKoro06 13:17, 19 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Then again, I saw the term used for what I think is a parrot that just crapped, and the article was for a toilet; Unchi itself means faeces, and again, Mimi is the one always being chased by Sukamon and Numemon. So, it could be slang for buttocks, or just mean "Poop Grab/Grip".
 * Oh yeah, it definitely means "Poop" - here and here. What the hell, Japan?KrytenKoro06 13:23, 19 April 2009 (UTC)


 * Yeah, I was thinking the same thing, especially relating to the sixth episode of Digimon Adventure.--Ainz 13:30, 19 April 2009 (UTC)

Layout
"Can you please tell whoever maintains the wikimon skin that there are graphics in http://wikimon.net/index.php?title=MediaWiki:Monobook.css&usemsgcache=yes&action=raw&ctype=text/css&smaxage=18000 that doesn't exist and it causes the browser to make unnecessary call to php everytime a page is loaded. (really slows the website down)" <-- from pawitp

Card quotes
As per the request of other editors on the Digimon Wiki, I've started compiling the non-kata text on the cards we upload. The only such one so far is here. I went ahead and corrected the ChaosDukemon article with them.KrytenKoro06 23:12, 11 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Also, the animators of the moving sprites at WtW have given us permission to use them - they work very well for the Story-only characters such as ChaosDukemon Core, Chronomon, etc. You can copy ours, or go get theirs.KrytenKoro06 23:23, 11 November 2008 (UTC)


 * For the card quotes, I was thinking that, if possible, we could create a large compilation of quotes from HC, AE and BT/BT2, similar to that list of evolution references over at Digimon Wiki. --Ainz 23:41, 11 November 2008 (UTC)

Nefertimon
The Rosetta Stone also has Digicode on it, but I'm having trouble making out any of it but "hikari" on the first line. Do you have any high quality images or scans of the stone, and do you want to help?

Alos, LordKnightmon has Digicode as well.KrytenKoro06 15:45, 2 December 2008 (UTC)


 * Despite not having any high quality images of the Rosetta Stone, I'll see if I can help out with the code - I've managed to decode the first adn second lines, but I still can't make out the rest of third line. --Ainz 00:54, 3 December 2008 (UTC)

Here's what I'm getting:
 * ❌No - 多いなる光の???



Does this help?--Daisuke Motomiya 16:10, 5 December 2008 (UTC)

The "digicode" from above is present on St-443. --Ainz 17:16, 5 December 2008 (UTC)

Can anyone decode it? Is it still to small to read?--Daisuke Motomiya 04:33, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

I've managed to add the third and part of the fourth line (one character absent), which along with the antecedent lines is beginning to make more sense:

Line 1: ❌No (巨なる光の石よ inaru hikari no ishi yo, lit. "The stone of great light,")

Line 2: No (その誓うをして Sono chikau wo shite, lit. "That which vows,")

Line 3: No✅ (邪悪の闇を Jku no yami wo)

Line 4: No ?

If the unknown character was, then it definitely gets the message across. --Ainz 14:08, 19 April 2009 (UTC)
 * I didn't even see that fourth line. I would assume that ka would work.

The nochihakai is giving a bit of trouble properly translating, but I think it wants to be like this:

Upon the stone of great light This vow is made That the shadows of evil Will be destroyed.

From the anime: ❌No No(/0:0:0) No✅ No?

Problem is, this one definitely has at least one more line. I'll see if I can watch the episode, but I don't have a high quality version of it.KrytenKoro06 08:59, 13 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Never mind, that shot was the entire art for that scene. Well, I think it might be an, but it's good enough for now.
 * It's probably "ra", which would change the translation to:

巨なる光の石よ その力をして 邪悪の闇を 後破壊

From the stone of great light, This power is given That the shadows of evil Will be destroyed. Something something something something

Sorry
I haven't been around lately. Is there anything you need me to be doing, like Channel translations?KrytenKoro06 13:13, 19 April 2009 (UTC)

I've been trying to extract the text that Bokomon reads from that wall displaying Ornismon, AncientGreymon and AncientGarurumon  in Digimon Frontier: Revival of the !! So far, I've got:

憎しみの???デジコードを海鳥の羽に満たすべし、然ればわれ復活せる

It's missing one word but I've been having trouble trying to make out what it could be. --Ainz 14:24, 19 April 2009 (UTC)

Ravemon/Ravmon
Shouldn't we have it as Ravemon? Yeah, I know that the Bandai Website says Rav, but his Evolution Sequence clearly says Rave. Just like with Submarimon, where the Site says Sabmari, but the Sequence says Submari. MugenSeiRyuu

To avoid more inconsistency using a mixture of Toei and Bandai (and fanmade) names, keeping them to a minimum. Also, due to Bandai (and WiZ) originally starting off the franchise also comes into play. --Ainz 18:54, 24 April 2009 (UTC)

In that case, we probably should make some kind of note regarding those names. MugenSeiRyuu

Thanks for fixing it! MugenSeiRyuu

Featured
On Digimon Wiki, I've been using ; to substitute for the == headers in the featured article box. Maybe that would work to split up the sections?KrytenKoro06 05:43, 16 May 2009 (UTC)

Background
When we figure out what design to use, yeah. I don't think any of us over there have any graphics-coding experience. I was kind of thinking of jazzing it up like tfwiki did, but of course with Digimon-appropriate design.KrytenKoro06 16:40, 16 May 2009 (UTC)
 * I'm only seeing "ROSEMON". I think I might need to clear my cache, but I want to wait on that because I'm in the middle of submitting to another wiki which is having some technical difficulty, and I don't want to lose my write-up.KrytenKoro06 17:37, 16 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Okay, I'm seeing it now. It looks awesome, and would be a great border. Is there any way to make the lines greenish, though, to get that "Matrixy" feel that Tamers had?KrytenKoro06 17:59, 16 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Yeah, I'll put one up in a bit. --Ainz 18:03, 16 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Sorry about this, my Photoshop's playing up for some reason. --Ainz 03:24, 17 May 2009 (UTC)

Profiles
Thanks for the Info MugenSeiRyuu

Apollomon
His name is mispelled in the Box over his pic, but I can't fix it. Also the frontpage lists his Digimon Story Evo Requiremtns also under Championship, while the Article itself lists the actually needed ones. MugenSeiRyuu


 * Thanks for that (after all that time, how did I not notice that Apollomon was misspelled as appolomon in the box!?) --Ainz 05:35, 17 May 2009 (UTC)

No problem! MugenSeiRyuu

Pupumon and Octmon
That's pretty much it, yeah.KrytenKoro06 08:51, 19 May 2009 (UTC)

Common.js
Hello Ainz. I am Azul from the KHWiki. A user there named KyrtenKoro has brought your idea of tabbing to the Kingdom Hearts Wiki. If successfully activated, it will greatly help out of Wikia. I've created the Tabber pages, but I don't know how to add importScript("MediaWiki:Tabber.js"); without messing everything up. Since you are the one who came up with it, you must be skilled in editing Common.js ;} Most of us at the KHWiki aren't good at editing Common. I was wondering if maybe you can help me out? -Azul81677 21:22, 23 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Wow. Thanks. What caught me off guard, thinking that I had done something wrong was when I added it and pressed "Show preview". Everything looked out of whack. Thanks again! -Azul81677 21:49, 23 May 2009 (UTC)
 * It's not showing up for me either.KrytenKoro06 19:32, 24 May 2009 (UTC)
 * It could be to do with the "import script" thing, but even so it should still work. --Ainz 19:40, 24 May 2009 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure what you need me to do. I've copied our files to User:KrytenKoro/common1 and User:KrytenKoro/Commoncss. Could you modify those codes as needed, and I'll do a full paste over on the Digimon Wiki?KrytenKoro06 05:27, 26 May 2009 (UTC)

Wicked Dragon Type
Shouldn't that be changed to Evil Dragon Type? MugenSeiRyuu
 * They're essentially the same, but I'll change them to "Evil Dragon". --Ainz 12:39, 6 June 2009 (UTC)

Thanks!MugenSeiRyuu

Tabbing
Is there any way to organize the tabs themselves? Specifically, I would like the tabs here to be presented in two rows, but help wiki is incredibly non-useful about this.KrytenKoro06 03:22, 14 June 2009 (UTC)

Two rows as in directly below another row of tabs? If so I'm not sure how to organize the actual tabs themseleves like that, the only way I can think to getting close is to modify the common.css part of the tabber code. --Ainz 05:06, 14 June 2009 (UTC)

Images
Someone was on an uploading spree last night, 500 total images in the space between my edit from last night and my first today. You must have been busy. --Lightlowemon 11:10, 16 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Yep, now virtually all of the booster cards (excluding Bx# cards) have been uploaded. --Ainz 12:29, 16 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Actually, I finished up the Bx# cards last night. Now time to work on the Starter cards, woohoo! --devkyu 17:25, 16 June 2009 (UTC)

Affiliate
We would like to affiliate with your site.

I'm not really sure how such things are done, but if all we do is put up links on the front page, then I'd like to use the "Official Sites" template you have on the main page, but with "Affiliates" instead of "Other".KrytenKoro06 23:23, 30 June 2009 (UTC)

Likewise as well, I might add the extra "Affiliates" tab as well to the template. --Ainz 23:35, 30 June 2009 (UTC)

Digimon.net
Are you having trouble reaching Digimon.net? This is starting to look like the worst anniversary celebration ever.KrytenKoro06 01:54, 12 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Yeah, but I've managed to bypass it using a proxy, which is really irritating. Also when clicking to go to the main page on different subpages, it still directs to the old url then redirects to the new url for some reason. --Ainz ( talk 04:47, 12 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Okay, it no longer needs a proxy now. Woo! And hopefully we get AncientSphinxmon next week!KrytenKoro06 16:46, 19 August 2009 (UTC)
 * I'm still having trouble with it, hopefully it should work for me soon. --Ainz ( talk 17:40, 19 August 2009 (UTC)

Question
Someone recently told me how WtW hates the heck out of Digimon Wiki, and from what I've seen it's over stuff like us claiming that the Digi-Egg of Sincerity represents Sincerity in the Japanese version as well (to summarize, it's more complex than that). I was just wondering, do you feel that we have a lot of inaccuracies? I mean, if we do, we need to know, or we can't fix them.KrytenKoro06 16:46, 19 August 2009 (UTC)


 * I find find any inaccuracies yet, if any thing, over here has more inaccuracies (and inconsistencies) than Digimon Wiki, but I think understand why they're complaining over the names for the Digi-Eggs in question. They're source of justification probably comes from the following:


 * Digi-Egg of Reliability
 * Digi-Egg of Sincerity


 * However, Bandai has only done this for four of them (the other two being Digimental of Miracles as "Digimental of Miracle" and Digimental of Friendship as "Digimental of Friendship") as far as I'm aware, and knowing Bandai's unpredictable nature, they could possibly be subject to change. --Ainz 17:36, 19 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Forgot to say it earlier, but thank you. I've used these images as sources on wiki. Also, would you mind checking my Lucemon FM translation?KrytenKoro06 21:45, 23 August 2009 (UTC)
 * I've checked it, but for the first sentence I got something like "The strongest of the Seven Great Demon Lords, the ultimate Demon Lord Digimon which possesses both the divine and the diabolic", unless the "究極の魔王型デジモン" bit was intentionally omitted, but other than that, it all looks good. --Ainz ( talk 23:57, 23 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Don't know why I missed that; I readded it.KrytenKoro06 04:01, 24 August 2009 (UTC)

Wikia
Hi. I wrote about this to Koroku, but he send me to you. I'm running polish Digimon Wikia, and I would to ask if I can use images stored here, on Wikimon. To tell the truth, I don't know which license do you follow. My Wikia (as Digimon Wiki) runs under CC-BY-SA. Final Cannon 10:14, 21 August 2009 (UTC)


 * Wikimon currently isn't under any license, although I've suggested the CC-BY-SA. But, if you want to attribute the images you upload from here, that'll be fine. --Ainz ( talk 11:27, 21 August 2009 (UTC)

Ancient Wisetmon
Looking at the profile again (and the address), the spelling appears to be Ancient Wise"t"mon. This does not seem to be a mispelling - it's Thai for "Magic".KrytenKoro06 02:49, 5 September 2009 (UTC)
 * I'm really tempted to change it, since "wiset" can also mean "supernatural; god-like" in the same language which can relate to it, but the moment I do, everyone would probably go into a fit. --Ainz ( talk 07:47, 5 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Vote or request for discussion, maybe?KrytenKoro06 18:16, 5 September 2009 (UTC)

User
Special:Contributions/Delipa seems to be adding unofficial attack descriptions and translations, as well as very badly-written story descriptions. I don't want to remove them because I don't know what your policy is on "official" vs. "observed" attack descriptions, but I thought I should bring it to your attention.KrytenKoro06 18:03, 11 September 2009 (UTC)

Wikimon Logo v2
wow, I last visited wikimon like 2 years ago when I noticed the site was recovered and you guys were looking for the logo... (Wikimon:Logo) great job for keeping the wiki alive! I was very impressed at how the large the database had become :D And seeing that the theme was changed to dark, I thought the logo needed a little change in order for the text to be seen well. So I revamped the old logo (that I still had stored in my PC lol) and tried uploading.. but I think something was wrong with the server. Whenever I pushed upload the page just stopped responding and gave me the 503 error... several times. As a result, the file history is kind of jumbled up. But anyhow I'm sure you'll be able to distinguish which one is the new. Since I dont think just uploading a new version of picture changes the logo itself, you can go ahead and replace the current with the new one :) Cheers! --Kimatg 01:58, 25 September 2009 (UTC)


 * Since I can't change the logo itself, it would be better to ask Koroku regarding it. --Ainz ( talk 06:07, 25 September 2009 (UTC)

Affiliate pt. 2
How would DigiWiki go about setting up analogous links to wikimon like is done with foreign language pages?KrytenKoro06 05:09, 6 November 2009 (UTC)


 * Like how Bulbapedia does? It would involve creating a new namespace as described in, but with it being Wikia, I'm not sure (I'd guess it would be similar to how custom namespaces can be added on Wikia). --Ainz ( talk 05:52, 6 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Well, I don't want to make you guys rearrange things, then. How about what DigiWiki used to do on wikipedia, where there's a little "Wikimon has info on x" graphic at the bottom of the page? Would you guys want to design something like that, how you'd want it to be?KrytenKoro06 18:47, 7 November 2009 (UTC)

Hercules
I need help translating this line:


 * もはやこの究極の進化を果たしたヘラクルカブテリモンにかなう存在は少ないだろう

I think it's either


 * There are probably few beings now who are suitable to accomplish this Ultimate evolution to HerakleKabuterimon.

or


 * Having now accomplished this Ultimate evolution, there are probably few beings who can rival HerakleKabuterimon.

Could you take a look at it?KrytenKoro06 00:58, 12 November 2009 (UTC)


 * The かなう is really irritating me, but I'm beginning to tend more towards the "rivalry" side (first thing which comes to mind is that it could be descretely referring to GranKuwagamon, or at least be a "prelude" to GranKuwagamon's profile judging the context). I'd say that the second line would be more a suitable translation --Ainz ( talk 02:59, 13 November 2009 (UTC)

G Shurunen
I have been stumped on this for a while (that's why I've been avoiding those bios), but I think I've found a crude idea of what it may be

酒類念

酒類 is "Shurui", and 念 is "Nen". I don't get any uses of this anywhere, but it would roughly mean something like "drunk feelings". This seems to roughly correspond to the description of it being a wild attack of shooting lasers in a blind rage.

This is just an idea, and I would need to check this with someone fluent. I really don't like how no one has any idea what it is.KrytenKoro06 23:35, 12 November 2009 (UTC)

Could it be chinese?KrytenKoro06 23:42, 12 November 2009 (UTC)


 * Yeah, I was thinking that, I've been trying to find out the origin of Shurunen for a while and am still baffled. --Ainz ( talk 02:42, 13 November 2009 (UTC)


 * Ask Futamaru on DATS. He might have an idea. --Koroku 02:52, 13 November 2009 (UTC)

Questions
1. Do Wikimon have some kind of "image policy"? I ask, because i wanted to know if I can use images downloaded from here on my Wiki (of course credited).

2. I think that Category:Long Necked Dragon Type sholud be changed to Plesiosaur Type.

3. Do Baby I/Baby II Digimons have an attribute? I saw on lots of places that they're data. I remember that in DA Analyzers they being attributed as data, but they do the same with Andromon and Numemon.

Final Cannon 00:15, 25 November 2009 (UTC)


 * 1. Not currently, but we should think about implementing one in the future.

2. Yeah (although a "problem" occurs with Brachimon who is also of the same type).

3. Baby I/II Digimon don't have an attribute, the DA Analyzers probably displayed them all as "Data" since the (Anime) franchise was "still in its infancy".

Sorry about the late reply, I've been really busy over the week. --Ainz ( talk 10:51, 28 November 2009 (UTC)

Karatenmon
Could you check my translation for "Shougekiha"?KrytenKoro06 02:02, 20 January 2010 (UTC)
 * It looks OK, also I think that the reading for "伊由太加" could be a pun on "苛高" from the rosary "Irataka-juzu/nenju" (苛高数珠/刺高念珠) which was "...originally a Buddist device to aid concentration during meditation..." and was apparently used by Shugendou priests. --Ainz ( talk 07:18, 20 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Actually, I've found out that "伊良太加", "苛高", "最多角" and "刺高" all seem be alterative readings of "Irataka" and used in the same context, so that "solves" Irataka's connection to Karatenmon's Shugendou theme. --Ainz ( talk 08:05, 20 January 2010 (UTC)
 * For the actual meaning of "Irataka", it looks as though its debatable, I've found an incomplete quote from JSTOR:


 * ...Irataka is considered by some to be the sanskrit word for rosary, arataka. However, Yanagita Kunio says that ira meant thorn. This explains the claws of animals, etc., which are attached to the rosary and is not of Buddhistic origin... -Ainz ( talk 16:07, 20 January 2010 (UTC)
