Wikisimpsons

Hey. How're you doing? (Peace be with you. Praise Jebus.) Just wanted to tell you something you're probably not aware of. The Infosphere has recently become affiliates with Wikisimpsons. Since you're more of a Simpsons fan than a Futurama fan, I guess you'd be interested in knowing how to link there. Here it is: [[simpsons|Wikisimpsons|Wikisimpsons]][[simpsons:Wikisimpsons|Wikisimpsons]]. (Disclaimer: This may or may not be related to your edit to The Simpsons article.) I'm out.

{{et}}

Hi. Coming by to tell you a little about the use of the Et template, as I'd like us (you, me, and the rest of the wiki) to be editing in a close way. Articles like The Grumpy Snail and Rab-Bot specifically deal with information from only one episode, so if we want to use the template, it kind of makes sense that it be separated from all the text. However, that's not what if was made for. (See this for details.) In these cases, we've been going with what seems more logical. For instance, you can say Fry worked at a pizzeria without referring to 1ACV01, but you probably should refer to it when mentioning "the first time he visited the Head Museum". Also, regarding your redirect, you could've just moved (renamed) the page. Do you know how to do that? Sanfazer 00:37, 15 February 2011 (CET)

Hola. I will admit that I'm still a rookie on the whole use of templates. So should the Et template be used within an article when citing a specific fact (such as the second sentence of Rab-Bot), as opposed to the end? And no, I haven't the faintest idea how to move an article. I looked around and couldn't figure out how to do it, so I just moved text around. -- DeepSpaceHomer 01:13, 15 February 2011 (CET)
Well, I just figured out how to move a page. So that problem is solved. -- DeepSpaceHomer 02:19, 15 February 2011 (CET)
Yes, exactly. There's only one more thing, not really as important, but still a thing: When you add categories, be sure to sort them alphabetically. The Infosphere used to have a bot for this kind of thing, but it seems to be inactive. And congratulations on learning how to move particles. Sanfazer 23:39, 15 February 2011 (CET)

Episode credits

The episodes you added to the Bill Oakley article are 3ACV01 to 3ACV19, not including 3ACV16. Was that a mistake, or did you check the end credits? (Third section by...) Sanfazer 02:49, 20 February 2011 (CET)

That wasn't a mistake. Those are the episodes that are listed on his IMDB page. I checked it at more than once, because it seemed weird to me, too. -- DeepSpaceHomer 04:05, 20 February 2011 (CET)
I'm glad to hear/read that. IMDB didn't even occur to me. Sanfazer 00:07, 21 February 2011 (CET)

Pool

Buenas noches (CEST), Deep. Would you mind re-uploading File:Hank Aaron All Star Parade 2008.jpg on the pool? I'll delete it here as soon as I receive your feedback. Don't forget we have a pool! Sanfazer 23:11, 5 May 2011 (CEST)
Had to delete it first, obviously. Sanfazer 23:27, 5 May 2011 (CEST)

I thought I did. Hmm, must have clicked the wrong link or something. I have clicked the link you provided and will attempt this again. -- DeepSpaceHomer 23:39, 5 May 2011 (CEST)
The image is back in the picture. (Funny?) Thank you for your collaboration. Sanfazer 20:12, 6 May 2011 (CEST)
Always pleased to be useful. -- DeepSpaceHomer 20:25, 6 May 2011 (CEST)

Imitator

Why do you obstinate to lie? --DeepsaceHomer 17:27, 15 June 2011 (CEST)

I'm leaving this up for posterity. And the humor. -- DeepSpaceHomer 18:45, 15 June 2011 (CEST)

Please Explain

Why are caracters that are both unseen, unidentified and unheard from so notable? It just doesn't make sense! Clearly, Green Yonder proved that there are a plethora of named characters so much that those who aren't even named don't need to be on the wiki--Icyweaner2999 19:38, 3 August 2011 (CEST)

DeepSpaceHomer does not have to explain anything. He is following the rules. And so should you. Do not nominate That guy from the future for deletion again. It will not be deleted. Please take a look at this. Sanfazer 19:45, 3 August 2011 (CEST)

That doesn't mean anything. Without the rule, your point is moot. I have every right to nominate it again, on account of unnotability and any reversion would mean hypocrisy--Icyweaner2999 19:47, 3 August 2011 (CEST)

Indeed, but those are the rules. Technically, you do have every right to nominate any article for deletion. Notability isn't a requirement though. What we care about is relevance. - Quolnok 10:25, 6 August 2011 (CEST)

Sockpuppeting

Are you sockpuppeting as Svip?--Icyweaner2999 20:17, 5 August 2011 (CEST)

No. -- DeepSpaceHomer 20:17, 5 August 2011 (CEST)

Then why are you claiming Svip's points as your own?--Icyweaner2999 20:25, 5 August 2011 (CEST)

Uh...because I am DeepSpaceHomer? At least, I was the last time I looked in a mirror. -- DeepSpaceHomer 20:28, 5 August 2011 (CEST)
My previously snarky comment now makes no sense since Icyweaner's change in his comment. Now it makes me look like a narcissist. (Yes...look like one...) -- DeepSpaceHomer 14:45, 6 August 2011 (CEST)
Look, you might feel like you are being ganged up on, and for that I apologize. But you have zero right to accuse me of being a sockpuppet, or of sockpuppeting another account. -- DeepSpaceHomer 20:29, 5 August 2011 (CEST)

It just seemed like it from the comments on the episode talkpage. I'm sorry for accusing--Icyweaner2999 20:33, 5 August 2011 (CEST)

Water under the bridge. -- DeepSpaceHomer 20:36, 5 August 2011 (CEST)
Alrighty, but as I was watching Mobius Dick on my DVR, I realized that I'm so used to hearing for every character name, whether it be for Futurama or Family Guy, I was about to add "Amanda Zandt" to the character list, but then I put on the CC and learned Farnsworth actually said "Amanda'S aunt"... I found that a bit funny but facepalm-worthy--Icyweaner2999 20:43, 5 August 2011 (CEST)

Catalog/ue

If you look in the News Archive you'll see all the other times it was spelt Catalogue, I was going off of that, ;) DannyJC13 (talk) 17:10, 4 December 2011 (CET)

It's wasn't meant as a personal slight against you, mate. I hadn't paid much attention to the "Catalog/ue" spelling when the news items were posted, except for some reason I decided to look up the agency today, and found the Copyright Office page, which spells it as "Catalog". I normally can keep my inner pedant at bay but, since it's a proper title, I figured it should be spelled...uh...properly. -- DeepSpaceHomer (talk) 17:24, 4 December 2011 (CET)
No problem, things like that annoy me too. ;) DannyJC13 (talk) 17:46, 4 December 2011 (CET)

The Fishsticks reference

Granted, that last clause is an opinion and I'll remove it. However, if you are familiar with the South Park episode "Fishsticks" you may remember that Cartman, through much self-convincing, can't help but claim that he wrote the joke, and believes it wholeheartedly.

I'd recommend re-watching it, ignoring the whole Kanye West skewering which unfortunately detracts from the joke-stealing narrative.

I have seen the episode a few times. I remember the plot. However, I really don't see the connection between Cartman, the joke, and Fry's exclamation. It sounds more like a random throwaway line by the writers than any concrete reference to South Park. -- DeepSpaceHomer (talk) 22:27, 24 March 2013 (CET)

Apologies; there is a misunderstanding. Fry's line could easily be a throwaway. But I believe it's a direct reference to--or directly influenced by--Jimmy's joke (which was wholly deconstructed for the remainder of the show). What I'm trying to say is, if the writer of that particular line were to claim to have made it up on his own then he would be no better than Cartman (or Carlos Mencia as depicted) in that episode. Personally, I find that funny to contemplate. I've reworded things but, if you feel the need to re-edit, please just put a period after "...aired 2009" in my post, as I believe the first opinion is valid for readers to consider in the context of the South Park page. -- ChadwellAK (talk) 03:24, 25 March 2013 (CET)

It seems a bit of a stretch to me. I would advise taking it to either the South Park talk page or the Near-Death Wish talk page and see what others think about it. -- DeepSpaceHomer (talk) 14:19, 25 March 2013 (CET)

Cinema

There's something I'd like you to participate in. You think you're up for the task? Sanfazer (talk) 19:12, 1 April 2013 (CEST).

I participated. I now feel my existence as a human is validated. -- DeepSpaceHomer (talk) 19:32, 1 April 2013 (CEST)
I couldn't agree more. "I rank. Therefore, I am."
Thanks. Sanfazer (talk) 20:24, 1 April 2013 (CEST).
