Sorry to disturb...

Hi YT, I'm Daysleeper, new member here. I want to ask you something, hopefully you can help me. Here's the thing, I saw this page Harada_Ryuji and his picture there is not in right box. How to place the picture in the appropiate box?

Thank you very much.

Click on the "edit" box and look what's wrong... (little hint: The box is on the first line and the wrong images are the three next lines. You may also try the help page) --Le Piaf 05:20, 28 Dec 2005 (EST)

Inserting Images

Most can follow this format:

 [[Image:insert URL here.jpg|thumb|description]]

or:

[[Image:insert URL here.jpg|frame|description]]

File:YamadaTakayuki11.jpg Yamada Takayuki

File:YamadaTakayuki11.jpg Yamada Takayuki

If you want to go further and force the image to a certain size then insert the pixel size

[[Image:insert URL here.jpg|thumb|200px|description]]

Thank you

Hi YT, Thank you very much for the update you made upon my question. :) BTW, I found this link containing the picture of actress Bold Takagi Miho (she played in Gakkou e Ikou!, the old dorama with Asano Yuko and Fuse Hiroshi).

Maybe it can be useful somehow. Takagi Miho : http://www.wendy-net.com/cyumoku/image/153top.jpg

Thank you. --Daysleeper

Entered - Takagi Miho. What is her date of birth, 1979 doesn't seem to be correct. --YT 02:06, 31 Dec 2005 (EST)

I think you should start learning how to insert images yourself. The instructions are stated above. All you have to do is upload the image using the link on the left hand menu "Upload file". --YT 20:56, 1 Mar 2006 (EST)

Drama Listings

Please make sure that when you add a drama to an artist's page that it is listed accordingly to the broadcast date and not just the year (i.e. with Sin Ho Ying's page you recently edited). Thank you! ladys07 00:37, 7 May 2009 (UTC)

Some hints to improve your editing

Thanks for your many many DramaWiki contributions. It would be nice if you would plan your edits a little more to (a) save some system resources and (b) make it easier for other editors who try to patrol the recent changes list. I noticed that some of your contributions (page edits) could have been done with less saves. Just in case you didn't know, every time you save an edit you create a new copy/backup of the whole article inside the wiki's database. It's a good idea to use the Preview button to see what your change will look like, before you save it. This helps reducing (unnecessary) saves, especially when testing edits.

Here are some hints to avoid some unnecessary edits/saves:

• preview (and test) an edit before saving it to reduce the number of consecutive edits due to typos or forgotten information
• somehow plan your edit before making the contribution (e.g. by collecting information offline) ... and try to create new articles with one edit
• postpone trivial (cleanup) edits until your next "real" edit
• do a full page edit instead of several consecutive section edits
• using multiple edit windows (in a tabbed webbrowser) helps a lot to test previewed edits or when working on several related articles

Last but not least, it is very helpful for other editors (patrollers) if you comment more of your contributions, especially when adding new information to a page. For example, simply use "+ring" when adding a dramaring (and remove the misleading "/* External Links */" edit comment in case you add the ring template through a section edit). Thanks and happy editing. --MoerkJ ^talk 23:50, 4 Jul 2009 (UTC)

Regarding your translations

Hi YT~ It's really great that you're contributing a lot, but I've noticed that most of your japanese translations for episode titles, are incorrect or are grammatically awkward. It seems like you're just running them through a translator, however, when you do that it doesn't always capture the full meaning. I do appreciate your effort, but please refrain from translating if you don't know it well, since others have to go back and fix them or the wrong information will be given, and at dramawiki, as you know, we try to keep the information as accurate as we can. Thank you! -- iwaseJEN

yeah i've just been running them through google translater and some don't make sense. --YT 00:39, 12 May 2011 (UTC)

Hanazakari...

Hey YT. For Hanazakari, I was stuck between whether it needs a new page or not, since it's a remake with a completely different cast. What do you think? Also the full title is a tiny bit different as well, and ja wiki is treating it separately from the first one. I wasn't sure about this one, since its not that common i don't think for japanese drama remakes. so any input? =) -- iwaseJEN

I think should keep under same page since same title and story and JP wiki have combined them together as well... --YT 06:56, 26 May 2011 (UTC)

Hrm, I guess, but I also noticed most remakes get separate pages. Also ja wiki has it combined on the same page because its under the manga page, but its in aseparate section within it. But I guess we'll see as more information turns up, like if it has a completely diff cast i think diff page. But thanks~ -- iwaseJEN

If it has different title it should get diff page. Have you got examples of remakes that have separate pages? --YT 13:23, 30 May 2011 (UTC)

Well the title for the first one is 花ざかりの君たちへ〜イケメン♂パラダイス and for the remake it is 花ざかりの君たちへ〜イケメン☆パラダイス. They obviously can't change the entire title since it's just that of the original manga's but they do show that it's different by making a very subtle change to the title. Minami-kun no koibito and Kou kou kyoshi are the ones that I found. I guess it's very unconventional for a tv station to make a remake within 4 years of the original XD

Probably should get it's own page since remakes in the past have been handled this way. --YT 02:15, 31 May 2011 (UTC)

RE: Two-way linking

Thank you for your message. Yes I am fully aware of that. What I do is I actually watch the episodes then write down the guests/their roles so I have a complete credited guests list. And I was planning on watching episode 2 today, and since episode 1 and 2 are connected to each other, I was going to wait and see if they appear in the second episode so I don't have to go back and change it right the next day. Prevents the multiple saves I have to make. --iwaseJEN

As long as you are fully aware. As such most never get done and are hard to track if not done on the same date of the edit --YT 07:55, 24 August 2011 (UTC)

Guidelines for uploading new photos

Hi YT, I just wanted to remind you of the photo guidelines for the profiles. I understand that many people would like to put up current pictures, however, quality comes before how current a picture is. Most of the pictures you uploaded were good, but some were unnecessary in that, the quality was lower than the previous (blurry, lower pixels, complete face not shown etc), so please keep that in mind for next time. And thanks for your contributions as always =) --iwaseJEN

I don't see much difference in the quality to the one you replaced as for not showing complete face not shown is a laugh. I only replaced Usuda Asami as her face was more tilted to the front. I think sometimes comes down to personal preferance. --YT 08:34, 10 September 2011 (UTC)
