He falls under the category of Messiah because in the second movie it is prophesised the world would turn to Ash (to save it).Zythe 22:12, 5 July 2006 (UTC)
G'day, HighwayCello! ...no, I'm not Australian. I just needed a greeting that didn't start with an "H." Anyways, I came to ask your advice. The Omnitrix talk page is riddled with forum-ish comments. Do you think I should just delete them, like done on the Super Smash Bros. Brawl talk page? Or is there some better action I could take, like put that big notice at the top? Thanks.--The Ninth Bright Shiner talk 04:02, 26 June 2006 (UTC)
Hi, thanks for reviewing the Peggy Mitchell article. You came to the same basic conclusion I did. However, I wanted to remind you to remember to change the {{GAnominee}} template to the {{failedGA}} template when failing a nomination. Also, of great use for instructing the editors of fiction-related articles is the new Wikipedia:Manual of Style (writing about fiction) / WP:WAF guideline. There are a LOT of fiction articles written with an "in universe" perspective, rather than an "out of universe" perspective. That guideline is part of the GA qualifications, so is an important thing to bring up when reviewing fiction articles.
Anyway, thanks for your help with the GA project, I just thought I'd leave you this little reminder. :) Phidauex 21:55, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
I wanted to request that you not 'game' the Good Articles system by renominating articles that haven't had their problems addressed, in an attempt to get a more lenient or 'fellow fan' reviewer who will pass the article without consideration for the qualifications. It runs counter to the intent of the system, wastes the time of reviewers (who are already working with a fast growing backlog), and is just a bit dishonest.
Fiction articles need to abide by the Manual of Style guidelines regarding writing about fiction. Namely, WP:FICT and WP:WAF. The required "out of universe" perspective isn't always easy to write in, because most fan sites and fan-wikis recommend an "in universe" perspective, so this is how most people are used to writing. This guideline is being taken more seriously both within the GA system, as well as the FA system. I know there are articles that 'got through' before the guideline was well known, but with time, they will either get updated, or delisted.
If you'd like to dedicate time to improving these articles, it makes more sense to work on the articles themselves, instead of spending time trying to sneak them through. I've been trying to work with some editors to help improve their fiction articles, and you could do the same. Thanks. Phidauex 22:07, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
Sure, all of the peer reviews come from javascript; just add {{subst:js|User:AndyZ/peerreviewer.js}} to your monobook.js, and while editing an article click on the peer review link right next to the log out button (the responses come in template form though :( ). By the way, great job with the Torchic article; besides the default responses and several erronous messages, the remaining issues were all minor. Andy t 22:52, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
Hey HighwayCello,
Just stopping by to say hello, and I see that your stress level is beyond massive, and that you've gone on wikibreak for an indeterminite amount of time - that's no good at all! I'm very sorry that your stress has gotten that bad, I was hoping it would dissapate, but it seems not. Let me know if there's anything I can do, for now I'm off to list you at Esperanza Alerts so that you can have some more support. -- Natalya 13:05, 9 July 2006 (UTC)
That's good that you made a category - it makes it more fun that way. :D -- Natalya 23:03, 10 July 2006 (UTC)
Hi there. I would like to thank you very much for your vote in the Esperanza Elections, your trust in me was appreciated and I hope I will be able to live up to your expectations. Thanks again! Regards -- Banes 09:57, 10 July 2006 (UTC)
Right, im not trying to get you mad, and im not blaming you for anything, but I would like to know if you just ended up at the Charizard article, or if you WikiStalked me there Minun (talk) 15:19, 10 July 2006 (UTC)
Thanks for the stressbusting. :) I think I know what I'll do about it, but at the moment I'm just doing some non-figure skating related stuff. I surely will keep up with the admin coaching; let me know if you have specific questions. I will also try to think up some stuff to coach you on. :) --Fang Aili talk 16:13, 10 July 2006 (UTC)
I'm sorry I didn't know posting non-serious comments on talk pages was spamming.Again, Sorry.Raichu 17:19, 10 July 2006 (UTC)
Though it goes without being said, I wish to offer many thanks for your support in the Esperanza Election, Highway. I am so glad and honored by it, and look forward to living up to it and working to keep Esperanza all Esperanzial! -- Natalya 01:26, 11 July 2006 (UTC)
I wasn't trying to vandalize the page. I won't lie in saying that I am a 4chan surfer (not necessarily a /b/tard as most would say. ) The phrase popped up in more than one place but was most prominent on there (4chan) so I put it here. Sorry about that though. AYV 01:53, 10 July 2006 (UTC)

I have added FU rationale to the images. Aside from this, most of your comments aren't applicable for failing the article. Please see its talk page for my logic and then reassess the article. If you still feel the article is not worthy, please contact me and I'll try to address your concerns if I can. --SeizureDog 05:26, 11 July 2006 (UTC)
Hmpf, no fair! I must learn to keep up...Oh well. By the way, thank you very much for remaining active in the Barnstar Brigade and keeping it updated. I need to award some barnstars myself one of these days...Cheers -- Banes 16:44, 11 July 2006 (UTC)
Thanks! It's my first original barnstar! By the way, I noticed you had an interest in Friends. I was considering moving all the minor characters (Jack Geller, Judy Geller, Ugly Naked Guy) to their own list. I suugested this on Talk:Friends, but that page is dead apart from the odd forumish post. Thoughts? smurrayinchester(User), (Talk) 18:51, 11 July 2006 (UTC)
Yep, that's really how much I want to thank you - what a truly fantastic barnstar! It really made me smile. I'm glad to have gotten to work with you and become such a good friend here on Wikipedia - I really value it! (But of course you already know that!) Thanks again. -- Natalya 22:09, 11 July 2006 (UTC)
I have added an in other media section to the article (See Charizard#In other media.) The section will need expansion, please help expansion, cheers Minun (talk) 10:47, 12 July 2006 (UTC)
Hey, saw on your page that you were kind of very stressed out, and I just thought that I'd drop by to how you were. Also to remind you that no matter how stressful and generally stupid wiki can get, there are always editors here who are willing to help, and very grateful to have someone like you around (I know I class myself in that category! ;). Hope you feel better soon. Thε Halo Θ 12:10, 12 July 2006 (UTC)
You're doing a good job with Chierimu, Pachirisu and Dorapion. Can you please help with the expansion of Diaruga and Parukia? Thanks :) --Lividore 15:31, 12 July 2006 (UTC)
Dude, I take offense at calling my edit on Dorapion vandalism. It was more an error on my part after I heard that it was potentially a mistranslation. On something as current as this unless someone puts down Type: Poop you shouldn't credit it as vandalism. Again, no biggy, but if I was in the same mood I was in yesterday I'd probably be flipping out at you right now. --ArrEmmDee 22:09, 12 July 2006 (UTC)
I apologize for badmouthing you on the FAC page Minun (マイナン) 10:02, 13 July 2006 (UTC)
For those of you who supported my RfA, I highly appreciate your kind words and your trust in me. For those who opposed - many of you expressed valid concerns regarding my activity here; I will make an effort in addressing them as time goes on while at the same time using my admin tools appropriately. So, salamat, gracias, merci, ありがとう, спасибо, धन्यवाद, 多謝, agyamanak unay, شكرًا, cảm ơn, 감사합니다, mahalo, ขอบคุณครับ, go raibh maith agat, dziękuję, ευχαριστώ, Danke, תודה, mulţumesc, გმადლობთ, etc.! If you need any help, feel free to contact me.
PS: I took the company car (pictured left) out for a spin, and well... it's not quite how I pictured it. --Chris S. 23:54, 13 July 2006 (UTC)Hey, Since you made a template of the Barnstar Brigade members, how is it possible to then add one's name since the template merely mirrors the names of those already on it? Should I just add myself below the template marker? Thank you. Michael 04:15, 14 July 2006 (UTC)
I don't know if you're an admin, but I'm getting sick of deleting the same external link that doesn't meet the WP:WEB guidelines over and over @ the Friends page and the List of Friends Episodes page... Is there anything someone can do? Thanks for your time. --EmmSeeMusic 10:53, 14 July 2006 (UTC)
I've fixed all the problems you pointed out, anything else? M inun (Spiderman) 15:41, 14 July 2006 (UTC)
I've temporarily move protected it. I'm watching Lucario too; that one tends to get moved to Rukario a lot. smurrayinchester(User), (Talk) 17:27, 14 July 2006 (UTC)
If nothing else, may I ask why? It's rather confusing, because even though we'll probably get higher quality pictures in a few days, it seems like advertising for Serebii (not accusing you of that, by the way). Heck, even pokemonelite2000 has higher quality pictures. --ArrEmmDee 21:26, 14 July 2006 (UTC)
Just kidding! ;) Without your awesome friendship and support, I wouldn't be here. *plots to give you more barnstars* -- Natalya 22:42, 14 July 2006 (UTC)
-- Natalya 22:52, 14 July 2006 (UTC)
I notice you've been getting a lot of flak for beginning each Pokemon creature article with "The Pokemon-name". Now, I'm totally willing to apply that treatment to the articles myself, but it would help if I know that there was a consensus to have that as a rule. If there was one somewhere, could you point me to it? Thanks. Erik the Appreciator 20:41, 15 July 2006 (UTC)
Regarding my RfA, I would like to thank you for voting. Although you opposed my RfA, thank you for letting me know what points you feel I should work on. I wasn't really too suprised when my RfA didn't pass, nor am I disappointed. I will keep trying to do my best here at Wikipedia and I hope you will vote again on my next RfA. Paul Cyr 22:10, 15 July 2006 (UTC)
You're going to give yourself a concussion if you continue with all the head banging! And then you wouldn't be able to fix all the newbie mistakes that people make, and where would we be? It can be a thankless job, and IP (and other) users may get mad at you when they keep doing things wrong and you keep correcting them, but sometimes there are just things that have to be fixed over and over again. Usually it's okay to do it, but sometimes (like now), they really get on your nerves, and I'm sorry that it's that way. Just do your best, and if it's really getting to you, tell yourself you'll come back to it later, and step away for a second to take a breath. -- Natalya 02:25, 16 July 2006 (UTC)
Since your the one who rejected Cloyster from being a GA, what can I do to improve it. M inun (Spiderman) 15:28, 16 July 2006 (UTC)
That was me, I just thought it looked better if it was at it's full size on it's page, so why do you want it smaller? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Hero of legend (talk • contribs) .
Interesting to reinsert useless words. What2do 22:30, 16 July 2006 (UTC)
I noticed your problems are finished, do you support it yet? —M inun Spiderman 15:58, 17 July 2006 (UTC)

Hi there HighwayCello. I saw your frustration at your Pokemon articles not being selected at Template talk:Did you know. I think you can avoid this because even if you create all the pages on a day of work, you should perhaps only upload them one a day, because the guidelines tell us that you can only have one entry per topic on a given update for diversity. Sometimes I created three swimming bios in a day's work, but I didn't upload them in one day for the same reason. That way, all of them managed to get in. Alternatively, if you were the only author, I can delete the page for you, so that you can repost it and then it gets a fresh start at a later date. Thanks, Blnguyen | rant-line 00:51, 18 July 2006 (UTC)
Hello again. Just FYI, I had to dismiss a bogus WP:AN/3RR report against you filed by User:Wikipedian06 at the page Unknown Pokémon. Thanks, and happy editing, Blnguyen | rant-line 05:49, 18 July 2006 (UTC).
Thanks for your contributions! ++Lar: t/c 01:01, 18 July 2006 (UTC)
Hi there. I just wanted to know whether your removal of the "the" in Pachirisu without changing the "is" to "are" was merely accidental. Thanks --Lividore 17:22, 18 July 2006 (UTC)
Oh, plenty more I should imagine ;). —Celestianpower háblame 19:22, 18 July 2006 (UTC)
