Italics removal
I don't see any manual of style articles here explaining how articles should be written but I see you've removed the italics from the prior to on the evolution episode, should all articles like this not have italics there? Should the prior to above that under the episode captured also be not italicized? I can see why you would want the italics gone, it does look better without. 19:05, October 9, 2013 (UTC)
 * Oh also if you direct me to some well-written articles of different types like say a good article on a pokemon, on a person, on a game, on an episode, etc, I can mock up some mock-ups of potential Manual of Style articles or even just a single descriptive MoS article (though personally I prefer the example route because people find that easier to understand and follow). 19:08, October 9, 2013 (UTC)
 * Including the episode caught? Ok I removed that too then. 19:09, October 9, 2013 (UTC)
 * Personally I find example pages to be easier for the common user to understand and easier for the article writer to compile. 20:10, October 9, 2013 (UTC)

Two things.
Hey there.

1. I think it's tome you got this talk page archived.

2.

I think it's time to make another template.

Thanks. Oh and we're gonna need a color scheme for Fairy types. Picked out a color to start. The hex code is FFC3E1. What do you think? Or maybe FFB4D9 and FF96CA and FFA5D2. Think about it for a while.

Signed, Winxfan1. I am the ultimate fan of Winx Club 12:16, October 11, 2013 (UTC)

So...
Serebii start putting up the info so this is close to official. Or this could all still wait til launch. Your call. --OmegaRasengan (talk) 15:28, October 10, 2013 (UTC)
 * X and Y page? The official page or the wikia's page? --OmegaRasengan (talk) 16:11, October 10, 2013 (UTC)
 * Personally it might be safer to wait until launch, one thing I always hated about Bulbapedia is how much speculation they always put on their pages when a new gen is about to come out. As a seasoned wiki editor, I despise speculation...
 * But that is just me, as Om said, your call. 12:59, October 11, 2013 (UTC)

Community Messages
Hi~ I noticed that you have on the community message not to steal images from Bulbapedia. Would it make sense to add Serebii to that as well, since it's just as popular?

Actually, that should be extended to all sites, no? We wouldn't want anyone to comment how we "steal" images from other similar sites.  Energy X  17:26, October 13, 2013 (UTC)

Yes, very true. It was only a suggestion, since I know some fans (who might not know any better) who only want to help have taken images from other websites. I've actually seen it happen on Bulbagarden before, although I think they were taken down... I only browse there, I don't edit. Also, I noticed how you just changed the message, and I must say, that sounds /much/ better now, and it's clear that taking any information from other websites isn't allowed. I do apologize if I seem like I'm talking down on you with the "much better" thing; it's not intentional and I'm not trying to be rude.

Reply
Sounds like a fancy idea, I'll find the colors today.

OH and archive your talk page. >.<


 * Well at least archive it when you get to 100 messages, T'is my only mandate.

List
Not that I want to tell you things need to be done but there is a small list:

1. Ask Ken Sugimori for all gen vi official artwork.

2. Work on Fairy-type color scheme for Valerie's article.

3. Pokedex overhaul. Include height, weight, and real XY pokemon small sprites.

That's it.

Signed, Winxfan1. I am the ultimate fan of Winx Club 20:03, October 13, 2013 (UTC)

1. Sorry. But now there are no trainer spries this time around just offical art in game. And I saw the Swimmer Female. Besides, we have official art for half the Gym Leaders of Kalos so why not include the other half. And we'll need badge art for the upcoming XY episodes.

2. Can do.

3. Serebii.net got the small sprites and I got started already. Just separate the small sprites from the big ones.

Front Page FOB
Template:Commenter2comments Okay, I need for you to fill out that template for the front page Festival of Battles thing, and you can leave it in plain text or pretty it up if you want. I put my text into my template thingy.

FOB
I want to run next weeks FOB so here are the pokémon that were decided on. Golem and Aerodactyl. I'll be setting up the stuff next week after we archive the first battle. and I'll build another template to keep track of who has won and who moved to the next round.

Create your own gym
I made a template for it. and you can select the colors on it the same way as in the pokébox template. Template:Createagym See there!!!

>.< I can super simplify it. if you'd like. >.<
 * How much simpler does it need to be? because I can go super simplification-nation and make it so that it requires minimal input...

Thats pretty freaking simple. >.<

Yea should have said that in the first place, cuz thats pretty freaking simple to explain.


 * Check the bottom of the page

Evolution line template
To try to not copy Bulbapedia but still design an evolution template so that evolution can be listed as a clear image, I took the PokéBox template apart since that is code belonging to here and definitely not Bulbapedia and I was able to throw together a general idea of what I had in mind, the coding is a bit messy but the general idea of it is there. I used a luxury ball for friendness to try stay away from what Bulbapedia uses but the breeding thing should be an egg but there is no good egg sprite here I could use for this general draft. The final version would have options for the Hows, like you could say level|13 and it would automatically fill that stuff out, but I figured this is just a preview version to show the general idea of the design and then in the pokebox itself where the evolutionary line is currently you could put the PokémonPrevNext template instead and just have it be based on numbers automatically instead of manually. Thoughts? 16:05, October 15, 2013 (UTC)
 * Yeah I originally tried that egg sprite but it has a huge clear border that just stretches out the area sadly.
 * Hmmm, lemmie try that then, sec. 16:23, October 15, 2013 (UTC)
 * Is this what you had in mind? (I added the Shinx line to show how it looks like with regular evolutions.) 17:07, October 15, 2013 (UTC)
 * Uhhhhh... &gt;.&gt;; lol you are fine to edit it yourself because I already tried to code it like that but totally had a brain fart and went the other route instead that you didn't like. 17:46, October 15, 2013 (UTC)
 * and then here is what I was talking about doing with merging the PokémonPrevNext template into the PokéBox in place of evolution. 17:58, October 15, 2013 (UTC)
 * I'll ask someone if they can figure out how to split the columns while in the same box then. 18:08, October 15, 2013 (UTC)
 * Because it puts the info of the PokémonPrevNext in the PokéBox where the evolution line used to be. 18:08, October 15, 2013 (UTC)
 * See here, did I describe what you were looking for? 18:16, October 15, 2013 (UTC)
 * Slay knows about it, I was actually told to tell you about this by Slay lol, but this TyA guy is pretty good, I've known him for years across various wikis and I think he works for Wikia itself even, maybe. I know he didn't used to back in the day. 18:32, October 15, 2013 (UTC)
 * I think so, yeah. So do you see why I was suggesting replacing the evolution line on the PokeBox if this Evolution template gets used with what the PokemonPrevNext template shows? 19:34, October 15, 2013 (UTC)
 * What exactly do you have against it? The images? The number showing instead of the name? The arrows? 00:21, October 16, 2013 (UTC)
 * Pointless markings? Could you copy and paste what those markings are? I pretty much took the PokemonPrevNext template and put it exactly as it is onto the PokeBox, and then added images because people like pictures. 16:09, October 16, 2013 (UTC)
 * Yeah I copied the arrows and the v-lines directly from the PokémonPrevNext template? 16:23, October 16, 2013 (UTC)
 * Oh wait, so you don't like the PokémonPrevNext template too? I thought you did like it that was why I based the PokeBox usage from it... 16:27, October 16, 2013 (UTC)
 * Is it because it is on the bottom? I can move it to the top if that would help? 16:35, October 16, 2013 (UTC)
 * But there is nothing telling you what it is on the PokémonPrevNext either?
 * Yes I've noticed some pokemon articles have that there, but if the evolution template I suggested is able to get tweaked to the way you wanted then there would be no need for that in both places, I was suggesting this to clean up the articles so that there would be less things popping out at the viewer potentially confusing them seeing all info at once especially all info in various color schemes. This suggestion would remove the need to have both a PokémonPrevNext window and a PokéBox window on the same page because it moves the info to in the PokeBox making the article more compact and easier to read and less flamboyant. 16:43, October 16, 2013 (UTC)
 * It has been brought to my attention that the PokémonPrevNext template shouldn't even be used anymore since the PokeBox template already says what the PokémonPrevNext says in it lol. I am reworking my design then. 22:52, October 18, 2013 (UTC)

Hi!
I just saw your messages, I AM SO terribly sorry! I recently registrered and I didn't even see that I had gotten any messages from you.

I will go back and change every entry to meters! I did read the policy, I must have missed that however. I just assumed (as a European) that it would be easier to read in centimeters.

Again, I'm really sorry, it won't happen again! I really love doing this though so I hope it's okay that I continue.

Since in the Kalos PokéDex number 42 is marill, reclicanth, and purrloin, I updated the Template:PokéBox, is that ok? 15:01, October 22, 2013 (UTC)
 * Actually... you know what would be better? A #switch function, that way only the specific type of Kalos PokéDex shows up and the other two types are ignored, one sec while I try to code that in... 15:09, October 22, 2013 (UTC)
 * What exactly are you doing with the pokébox template? Sorry for the Extra message Jade.
 * I am trying to make it so that only the kind of dex of the Kalos region that the Pokémon is in will show up, I think I figured it out though one moment. 15:20, October 22, 2013 (UTC)
 * Well... it is broke now? You want all three kinds to show at once? I guess I can revert it back to that then. 15:23, October 22, 2013 (UTC)

Pokémon nav template
Energy X says he would like to see a Pokémon nav template and to see whether you think it should be all in one template (with each gen being collapsible of course) or would you think it better in separate nav templates 18:15, October 22, 2013 (UTC)
 * Well the coding for the nav boxes are already set up in Template:Navbox and so referencing that code in a template for Pokémon is a lot easier to read and understand. See Template:BerryList for an example. 18:21, October 22, 2013 (UTC)

 * Template:GenInav
 * I can either keep them merged into one or I can separate all the gens into individual nav templates. 12:57, October 24, 2013 (UTC)
 * Just the image itself? hmmm... that would make the gen 6 nav template pretty small then lol.
 * lol you're right (see above), that does look better. I was just going to split them up so their name didn't get separated from their image but I like this. 14:00, October 24, 2013 (UTC)

Bulbapedia
A while back you told me you work at Bulbapedia. So I have a few concerns there:

1. This is obvious, Bulba managed to do a beautiful, if not fully detailed, episode plot for XY001.

2. I find it a bit unfair that Celosia of Team Flair has her own "by herself" artwork, yet the other three have to have their groupshot artwork. If they had their own "By herself artwork, that would be great. The Kalos guide came out and there's official art of Mable, Bryony and Aliana by themelves, not in a group. There's also Olympia, Wulfric, Malva and Siebold. There are for Wikstrom and Drasna but neither pic is good.

3. Voice actors. I believe that, through process of elimination, you can find a chafracters voice actor/actress if you differentiate them from the rest of the cast. For example: Sarah Natochenny, Eileen Stevens, J Griff and Pikachu are the bulk of the main cast. But remove them from the equation of cast members, listen to the voices, try to match and you may find what you're looking for. I seen enough episodes of 5d's to tell Gemma was voiced by Cassandra Morris before Eileen took over. I just saw the Clair episode, No idea who voices new Clair though.

Just thought you should know.

Signed, Winxfan1. I am the ultimate fan of Winx Club 17:06, October 26, 2013 (UTC)

You too? I watched enough of the old episodes to recognize the old va's but new ones throw me for a loop. And this may be speculation on my part but I think Malva's eyes are pink. either that or pinkish orange. Bulbapedia is not like us. I mean, every site said Lisa Ortiz was the voice of Bianca in Pokemon Heroes. but I heard the voice of Tara Sands (Tara Jayne back then) more than enougn times to know that she was Bianca, not what most sites say. If only she could tell them that it would end this war of confusion. And the plot thing, you must have a really great writer there. When I have time I'll try to bit by bit fill in every detail of the plot, without making it seem like I copied from Bulbapedia.

Wikia Parent Filter
Hey Jade! :D Doug from Wikia again! How have you been? Wanted to stop by to let you know that Wikia has recently incorporated a Parent Filter feature for the site, to help give parents a few key details about particular wikis that their children may be browsing.

The page can be reached at /wiki/MediaWiki:ParentFilter

We would really appreciate if you, or another admin on the Pokemon wiki, would fill in some of this key information onto the Parent Filter page. I also have the ability to fill this out for you, if time is limited for the admin base for any reason.

A few great examples of a completed parent filter can be found here and here. Thank you for the cooperation! Let me know if need any help with this process. Have a good one!

Me (Talk to me • What I have contribed) 09:29, December 27, 2013 (UTC)
 * Oh sorry, when I wrote the page for that did I get something wrong? This is probably that thing I put in that was supposed to generate a random article from a category but since I didn't have access to it I couldn't test that it would work on this wiki and are you saying that it is assigning categories too? 00:49, December 30, 2013 (UTC)

I'm back!
Sorry i was off so long, i was trying to get my head around the formulas for experience on Bulbapedia. Have I mentioned I'm on Bulbapedia now? RTA fan (talk) 12:09, December 27, 2013 (UTC)

Can you unblock
me on the HG wiki? I'm officially 13 :D

Talk page
As seen on my talk page, there is a discussion whether the users are allowed to remove messages from their talk pages. I believe people shouldn't remove (unless they move it in an archive), what do you think of it?  Energy X  12:10, January 7, 2014 (UTC)


 * See wikipedia's policy on it, because that one applys here too. You can remove personal attacks and comments off your own page if you want. Shardsilver (talk) 12:17, January 7, 2014 (UTC)


 * Personal attacks, spam or any other nonsense, yes, but any important messages (like warnings or even congratulations) shouldn't be removed, in my opinion.  Energy X  12:19, January 7, 2014 (UTC)


 * Then we'll wait for drift, because I highly disagree, you should have the right to remove what you wantr off your own talk page (if I ever caught someone revert me for removing content off my own talk page, I would report them for doing something they have no right to do). Reverting someone who is removing content off their own page can be deemed vandalism if you don't back off after they tell you to to leave their page alone. Shardsilver (talk) 12:24, January 7, 2014 (UTC)

I've given a fair warning on my talk page that people should not post immature comments or anything in those realms, and then add that any other comments will simply be later archived. You misunderstand; I'm completely up for warnings to stay on talk pages too (they should), but reguler comments, well let me give an example; say someone edited your profile without your permission (a huge no no unless an admin, or you gave permission to someone), you revert them for editing it without your permission, and then you get reverted saying you can't revert them. Wouldn't that be very wrong (I know I sounded frusterated in the last post, but I wasn't trying to remotly pick a fight)? I'm going to have to explain what you said to other admins on various wikis, because most have it that you can remove normal comments off your talk page, and they punish one who attempts to revert you for that. I probably will eventually get around to doing a community discussion about talk page right, but not now. Shardsilver (talk) 18:02, January 7, 2014 (UTC)
 * Rainbow Shifter, can you elaborate why, because the idea that someone can't remove normal comments off their own talk page is quite possibly the (no offense to the follwing words) stupidest thing I've ever heard (why does the person have to be forced to archive it? You can go through their page history to see old comments). Shardsilver (talk) 17:39, January 7, 2014 (UTC)

I used the profile as example since it is yours. Your profile isn't something anyone can just edit (admins are an exception to that though), likewise I was trying to apply that to your talk page in a matter of speaking. Anyways, I've been patient and polite as best I can throughout our discussion, so I'm going to let this discussion go before I start getting irritated (I find it wise to simply opt out when necassery to stay out of trouble). Shardsilver (talk) 18:22, January 7, 2014 (UTC)

I'm not almost annoyed over that (people agree and disagree, there's no reason for me to get annoyed over that). What I'm almost annoyed about is you could have been a little nicer in some of your sentences like the one saying you didn't care if a person felt it was their right to remove any comment off their talk page (I could have been a tad nicer myself too, so I do apoligize if even once I came off rude). On another note, are you a vstf (been curious)? Shardsilver (talk) 18:41, January 7, 2014 (UTC)

By community discussion, do you mean individual wiki discussion (there's tons of wikias after all, and I'm only on some. Some wkias most people have the same thought as you on it, while others most users will have similar thoughts as I had)? Shardsilver (talk) 18:51, January 7, 2014 (UTC)

Okay, I can do that. I'll do it on my most visited wiki first, and then come back here afterwards (or some point in the future). Shardsilver (talk) 19:00, January 7, 2014 (UTC)

While I don't want to revive this, I read the policy, and I am going to qoute it; "Users may freely remove comments off their own talk pages, although archiving is preffered. They may also remove some content in archiving. The removal of a warning is taken as evidence that the warning has been read by the user. This specifically includes registered and unregistered usrs." and if you see the link further down about the comment removal policy and read it, it says "If a user removes comments off their own page, it should not be restored. By removing the comment, the user has verified that they have read it. The comment is still visable in the page history, so it is not necessary to keep it visable just to show that the other user recieved the message. It is also wrong to force them to keep it there." Further in that next link it says "Users who repeadetly restore the same comment to another users talk page may be blocked for voilating the three-revert rule or harassing another user, regardless of wether the talk page is for a registered editor or for an unregistered editor". Shardsilver (talk) 19:53, January 7, 2014 (UTC)


 * Disregard the above post; I didn't know that different wikis have different rules. Forgive me for not knowing that. And I hope I didn't cause any trouble for you or anyone. Shardsilver (talk) 22:03, January 7, 2014 (UTC)


 * While on the subject, I personally was talking about talk pages in general, not just User talk pages, and since we are clearing things up could we talk about that too? 05:26, January 8, 2014 (UTC)
 * If you broke talk page rules (I'm saying this about anime talk pages etc), the persons comment can obviously be removed because they're not saying anything that helps improve the article or are attacking other users etc. Another thing I see enforced on some wikias is that you don't add onto a discussion that ended a year ago, because it's practically deemed archived by that point. As for the other thing;The user page thing varies-some wikias don't enforce it because most there (including admins sometimes) feel their pages is their right period to do what they wish and as such follow the wikipedia policy on it (which I quoted above), while others like this pokemon wikia feel that shouldn't be the case and so the opposite is enforced on this one wikia. Shardsilver (talk) 10:51, January 8, 2014 (UTC)
 * I've never seen that archiving thing before, if it were actually archived I've seen that, but not when it is still on the talk page? 19:02, January 9, 2014 (UTC)


 * I've seen it on a few wkias. If a discussion is over a year old, they prefer not to add on to it since it's an old subject that has not had anything added for so long, and as such they consider it archived at that point (I especialy notice this in forums). Shardsilver (talk) 02:04, January 10, 2014 (UTC)
 * Weird... but a bit off topic lol 06:36, January 10, 2014 (UTC)


 * Well we are our own wiki and other wiki's policies don't really apply to us as we have our own. As for article talk pages I don't see a need to actually make an archive for it until it has about 50-80 section headings. Then, once it is moved into an archive it can be considered a closed discussion. 07:44, January 10, 2014 (UTC)


 * I was saying I saw people removing content from article pages and someone told me it was allowed here. 08:39, January 10, 2014 (UTC)

Hello
My name is TheUltraman, I'm the head admin and runner of the Super Smash Bros Wiki (http://supersmashbros.wikia.com). Recently our wiki has become partners with the Mario Wiki (http://mario.wikia.com), I have contacted you and the two other active admins here asking if you're wiki would like to become partners with ours aswell. Pokemon is one of Nintendos biggest franchise's and because of that they have had alot of apperances in Smash. If you would like to accept my offer post below and we can make an announcement on both wiki's. If you decline I understand.

Thanks for taking the time to read my announcement. TheUltraman (talk) 20:04, January 11, 2014 (UTC)

Main Page
Oof. With the impletation of Family Tree template, the Main Page looks bad.  Energy X  20:54, January 11, 2014 (UTC)


 * Actually, got it fixed. Stupid unseen scrpits...  Energy X  21:00, January 11, 2014 (UTC)

Affiliates
Hello, my name is Dreb607 and I would like to ask the same thing Ultraman is asking. Would you like to become partners with the following wikis: I know that, but The other wikis are Nintendo-related and that is what i'm going for. And sometimes spinoff wikis have more information than the wiki that the series is based on.Dreb607 18:30, January 12, 2014 (UTC)
 * Mario Party Wiki (www.diceblock.wikia.com)
 * Mario Kart Racing Wiki (www.mariokart.wikia.com)
 * Mario & Luigi Wiki (www.mlrpgseries.wikia.com)- I have not started on it but you can put the wiki name on the main page. Dreb607 18:19, January 12, 2014 (UTC)

Episode plots
Huh, what happened with plot writing (or manga)?  Energy X  21:20, January 12, 2014 (UTC)


 * Heh, try to get those anime episodes soon, else I'll write them all (currently on Orange Islands section). Still, I have recently obtained a source for Pokémon Manga and you can make plots from it. Not sure where to get images from, except that site...  Energy X  18:24, January 13, 2014 (UTC)

Comment
Hey, could you comment on the final FOB of Johto region?  Energy X  22:38, January 13, 2014 (UTC)

Delete
Remember when you helped with deletion. Any chance you can help me out again?--Kyurem147 (talk) 03:38, January 15, 2014 (UTC)

Rainbow can you please help me?!--Kyurem147 (talk) 20:46, January 15, 2014 (UTC)

I'd put a good reason if knew the good reasons are. There's a reason, but I can't think of it.--Kyurem147 (talk) 19:34, January 16, 2014 (UTC)

No I mean there's reason I just help knowing which ones are legal. Why'd you delete Virgil's Espeon?--Kyurem147 (talk) 19:51, January 16, 2014 (UTC)

Ok I get it, infrastubs was wrong was word. So which ones are legal? Why'd don't ask dragonspore you can trust her. Why'd you delete Virgil's Espeon?--Kyurem147 (talk) 19:58, January 16, 2014 (UTC)

Yeah I get you and X's statement. But it's more personal matter, it's complicated. It's favorites. This very deep for me. I just wanna recreate it beeter.--Kyurem147 (talk) 20:06, January 16, 2014 (UTC)

Kyurem147
Can you please talk with Kyurem147? He is pestering about some strange stuff (as seen [User_talk:Energy_X#Delete here]), plus he tags pages for deletion that can be put as a stub (as seen here).

FOB
So, after some time, it would be good if you host this week's FOB. The theme are Gen. III Pokémon, and I was thinking that the Pokémon fighing would have in common that all of them know a same move (move is your choosing). So, do you have any ideas?  Energy X  16:56, January 19, 2014 (UTC)

Anime characters
So, why replacing background with history?  Energy X  20:13, January 23, 2014 (UTC)

FOB
My, this was an excellent decision. Ludicolo won by only 25 votes, marking such popularity between both Pokémon.

Also, can you comment on the FOB battle?  Energy X  23:53, January 27, 2014 (UTC)

Vote
Could you vote on this, please?  Energy X  22:27, January 29, 2014 (UTC)

Pokepower
We should not close the idea of poke power that new users will replace the old ones cause you know they might never come back but still we can re-start the project for te betterment of this wiki. Blaze   Fire  09:17, January 31, 2014 (UTC)

He has a point. Though it may be they will never return, maybe making a "Hall of Fame" for the inactive users (like an archive)?  Energy X  18:52, January 31, 2014 (UTC)


 * There already is, they just aren't on the main template, but they are on the member profile templates. 19:01, January 31, 2014 (UTC)

Hi Jade
Energy told me that i can create a FireRed Walkthrough Page on my own he said that he would like to test my skills as a game editor i'm new but i already helped this wiki a lot by reverting some bad edits nice meeting you Jade :D Plasma X (talk) 16:57, February 2, 2014 (UTC)

Thanks Jade!I will try me best!BTW you also live in UK.Plasma X (talk) 09:03, February 4, 2014 (UTC)

Come to chat.Please! Plasma X (talk) 09:16, February 4, 2014 (UTC)

Please come again my net was disconnected Plasma X (talk) 09:44, February 4, 2014 (UTC)

Hey Rainbow are there any other admins besides you and X?--Kyurem147 (talk) 01:01, February 6, 2014 (UTC)

Manga
Hi there, I'm Ellis99, but you can call Ellis. I had edited a few times on a site called Pokemon Adventues Manga(which is also on your front page) and wondered if you would like to team up with a person called Aly of the crooked eye to help you with the manga pages on this site because she deals with all the manga on the site.Ellis99 (talk) 13:44, February 13, 2014 (UTC)

Reply
Welcome for before, plus I'm waiting for a reply from the person in question.Ellis99 (talk) 17:02, February 13, 2014 (UTC)

Episode Plots
Hm, do you still want to write the plots for older episodes? It may be that there is a season needing more info.  Energy X  23:14, February 15, 2014 (UTC)


 * It would be best to search for those episodes, using search results. When you find those episodes, I suggest starting from AG001, as the plots could use expansion.  Energy X  20:40, February 17, 2014 (UTC)

Main page
Hi, Rainbow Shifter!

I was wondering if you had any input about Main page tweaks. I might just keep missing Slayingthehalcyon.

Best regards, Raylan13 ( talk ) 20:59, February 19, 2014 (UTC)
 * Thanks for getting back to me ;) As luck would have it, Slay and I met on Skype, so things should look good now! Raylan13 ( talk ) 22:54, February 19, 2014 (UTC)
