== Hadaka no Taisho Horoki ==
I noticed you made changes to several artist pages regarding this drama. Please complete the edit by adding these artists into the [[Hadaka no Taisho Horoki]] article itself. [[User:Groink|Groink]] 17:16, 8 May 2007 (CDT)
:Never mind, I made the additions. [[User:Groink|Groink]] 17:26, 8 May 2007 (CDT)

== Asami Reina ==

I noticed that you removed Asami Reina's credit to DBSK's music video. Why did you do that? I see other pages (e.g. [[Miyazaki Aoi]]) have such headlines too. - [[User:Rikayla|Rikayla]] 12:45, 11 Aug 2007 (CDT)
:I removed the section because it doesn't belong in artist articles, and as per the [[DramaWiki:Japanese Artist Article Formatting|style guide]], such sections shouldn't be made. The only sections that should go into an artist article are: profile, tv shows, movies, endorsements, recognitions, trivia, and theme songs sung if applicable. Also just because other articles may be have such sections doesn't mean it's correct. --[[User:Pinkpineapple|Pineapple]] 12:56, 11 Aug 2007 (CDT)

== Joshi Deka! ==
Great way of handling the guests! [[User:Groink|Groink]] 00:26, 6 Nov 2007 (CST)

== Kaze na Bankara ==
Please move to Kaze no Bon kara. Thanks! -- [[User:Quashlo|Quashlo]] 22:48, 20 Feb 2008 (CST)

== Replying to the message you left me ==

Well... I'm sorry about that.
Hatsu Kare was in the Movies section of all those artist, and it's NOT a film. It's a net drama recently released on DVD, so I thought it was better in the TV Shows section than in the Movies section.
Anyway, what should I do then with Hatsu Kare and 100 Scene no Koi in the [[Mizushima Hiro]] page? They are net and mobile dramas, but are released on DVD. I would like Hiro's information to be as complete as possible, that's all.
Edit: Sorry, I forgot to tell who I am. [[User:Arimi|Arimi]]

: Keep in mind that the word "movie" doesn't just mean you need to walk in a theater to watch it. So until we create the infrastructure for OVDs and net-based shows, continue to store them under the movies section. [[User:Groink|Groink]] 20:47, 18 Mar 2008 (CDT)

:: OK. Then may I add these two dramas to the Movies section? And should I specify they are net and mobile dramas somehow? [[User:Arimi|Arimi]]

::: Yes, indicate the movie as such. [[User:Groink|Groink]] 22:36, 18 Mar 2008 (CDT)

== ORIGINAL banners preferred ==
Please don't take the following personally. It really should be read by all editors, but the rv of the [[Jodan ja nai!]] banner just reminded me to convey the following... Since day one, us editors here are trying to keep DramaWiki as ''original'' as possible. This goal affects all components: the synopses and the graphics. Never have we said that we prefer 100-percent stolen images off the official web sites, over originally created banners. If you've noticed my work on banners, I try my best to take parts of the graphics from the official sites, remove the time/dates and other clutter, re-arrange and even add the romaji. I do the same with most of my correlation charts. If an editor does not have the Photoshop skills to produce an original banner or other imagery, that does not mean the uploaded image is preferred over a home-made, DramaWiki original image. Please think of the possible legalities DramaWiki might face if, for example, TBS visits DramaWiki and demand all their graphics be removed from here. But don't take this as a full-on ban of copyrighted imagery. We do allow images from other web sites IF it is the only thing we have at the time. We also do allow photos of artists to be taken from their respective talent agencies because the talent agencies encourage free-use of their images (exception is Johnny's Jimusho.) But we still do not have a clear indication that the TV networks allow the same freedom of their images. "Fair use" laws differ from country to country. That's the point I'm trying to convey here - originally produced banners using a combination of original art and additional changes by DramaWiki editors are preferred over exact screenshots taken from a web site.

== Matsumoto Jun (female) drama listing ==
On 2007-Jul-27, you added a huge list of dramas to [[Matsumoto Jun (female)|this artist's list]]. But, you did not go to each of the dramas and add her name. Please do so, otherwise I'll remove the listings that do not link back to her. [[User:Groink|Groink]] 23:29, 1 Sep 2008 (CEST)

== Boku no Imoto ==
A few days ago, hackers invaded DramaWiki and FansubWiki. Ruroshin had to erase the server and restore from an earlier backup. Your creation of Boku no Imoto probably happened after the backup and before the hack. Therefore, I'd check your "my contributions" list to see what other editing efforts might have been lost.

:Thanks for the heads up, Groink. I wasn't aware of the the attack. --[[User:Pinkpineapple|<FONT COLOR="#EC008C">Pineapple</FONT>]] 19:22, 18 Feb 2009 (UTC)

== Rating numbers in articles ==
Whenever a rating value is less than 10-points, please add a "zero" to the left of the value. Ex: 09.8, 07.4, 08.0... This is to keep the decimal point in the rating values aligned. Even if there are no values in the table higher than 9.9, keep using this format. The only exception is the seasonal drama listing, as we've stuck a parameter in the table to keep the values right-justified.

You may not realize this, but there is an ergonomic reason for this. When the eye is scanning through a list of numbers vertically, the eye becomes fixated on the decimal point. When the decimal point is not aligned, the eye starts moving rapidly back and forth trying to follow the decimal point, causing eye fatigue which also causes things like headaches. We were doing this until Autumn 2008 - when you took over the rating numbers. [[User:Groink|Groink]] 01:54, 1 Jun 2009 (UTC)

:Well, I think it was me who has removed all those leading zeros along with some other redundancy when I did some global text optimizations directly in the database. There will be better ways to justify columns of rating tables in the future. So, I recommend not to add those otherwise redundant zeros. --<b>[[User:MoerkJ|<font color=green>MoerkJ</font>]]&nbsp;<sup><small>[[User talk:MoerkJ|<font color=red>talk</font>]]</small></sup></b> 07:00, 6 Jun 2009 (UTC)
