Looks like you have changed the navigation table on the left side. With these changes you destroyed the multi-language feature for the wikimedia-skin. I'd suggest either deactivating this function or to change back to the old setup. --Guenny 06:51, 28 Jun 2005 (EDT)
- Interesting, I didn't know that. On the other hand do we need the multi-language skin feature? Everything here is assumed to be written in english and is designed for the english speakers. Anybody else have any comments on this? --Ruroshin 23:48, 28 Jun 2005 (EDT)
Broken characters
It sounds strange, I noticed that some CJK characters are broken in many pages. I tried to correct, e.g., the page of Sekai no Chuushin de, Ai wo Sakebu but two days later I found that those characters are broken again (the history does show that I am the last modifier). Although this wiki is designed for english speakers, I think it should keep names of titles/artists correct in their mother languages. Any idea? --Panasonic 11:32, 8 Feb 2006 (EST)
Panasonic, you should read the last page of the DramaWiki discussion topic: Official DramaWiki Topic on D-Addicts --Gryzze 12:02, 8 Feb 2006 (EST)
- To answer Panasonic's question... We've settled on the idea that the kana names should be kept only in their primary articles, and to leave them out of any other articles linking to the primary. Trying to provide both the romaji and kana in EVERY SINGLE ARTICLE adds bulk to the database, and overall it is just redundant information that can otherwise be found in their primary articles. Also given the fact that every Japanese speaking person can read romaji. AND, the Japanese has their own drama wiki database at ja.wikipedia.org. So in the case of the article you were referring to, I'd remove the kana from all the artist references within the article. Groink 13:31, 8 Feb 2006 (EST)

Dramafever.com
Is the addition of external links by this user Dfever really allowed on Dramawiki? That guy keeps promoting his website while in fact the streaming is only for US and Canada area. I thought dramawiki is to provide info for dramas not to promote some online streaming websites?--Natokajun 23:55, 25 March 2010 (UTC)
contributing to d-addicts
I know I am relatively new on this wiki, but I would like to help it in any way possible. I am not a real active user of editing wikis, but rather administrative tasks/back-end type stuff. Is there any good place for me to get started on this? Thanks. Waf (talk) Hello! Goodbye! 02:02, 18 July 2013 (UTC)
Hi!
Hi~ right now I want to upload image on an artist page Su Ho but I have a problem with it, I read the Help page but don't understand much so please help me :( --The preceding unsigned comment was added by Junmyeons (talk) on 10:22, 20 January 2014 UTC
- Since Ruroshin rarely visits this wiki I will answer... The image has already been added. You couldn't upload because you didn't have the permissions to upload, yet. I have updateted the help page. It should be clear now. --MoerkJ talk 01:13, 24 January 2014 (UTC)
Page moves citing DMCA Notice
I noticed that you moved a whole bunch of pages to new, rather irregular page titles, citing DMCA Notice, which I assume has to do with some copyright issue with the original page addresses. Unfortunately, this has resulted in hundreds of broken links between the show and artists pages. Should we start updating these broken links or did you have something else in mind?--FritzB (talk) 23:01, 9 September 2018 (UTC)
- Ruroshin was requesting for help to update the broken links caused by this, so yes. --Zemus (talk) 16:31, 10 September 2018 (UTC)
Need Help Fixing Internal Links
Hi,
Yesterday and today I moved around 60 pages due to DMCA notices. Even though the said pages were not in violation. I had to move them because they were linked to infringing sources.
FritzB, yes, we do need help to fix all the internal links that have been broken due to the page moves.
I will add cleanup tags to the pages maybe later today or tomorrow. In the meantime, if you can find them and fix them, great!
Thank you.
- Okay. I've fixed all of the associated links for Athena: Goddess of War (2010-2011). I'll do more as time permits.
- To be perfectly honest, I'm not too thrilled with some of these new page titles like My Girlfriend is a Nine-Tailed Fox (Nae Yeojachinguneun Gumiho). They are rather ungainly and inconsistent with the Manual of Style. Would it be okay if I changed some of them again to something more in keeping with the rest of the database (as long as it is different from the original page title)? For instance, the previous example could become My Girlfriend is a Nine-Tailed Fox (2010) or My Girlfriend is a Nine-Tailed Fox (SBS). For many of the individual Artist pages, just adding the year of their birth in parentheses, such as Lee Dong Gun (Lee Dong Geon) -> Lee Dong Gun (1980) would be much better imho. We already use that general format is used a lot to readily distinguish different artists with the same name. --FritzB (talk) 16:24, 10 September 2018 (UTC)
- I have to agree with FritzB. Toda Erika (Actress, Model). In this example, do we really have to list every profession up in the page title? I think we should maintain a much simpler naming format and at the very least drop ", Model". --Zemus (talk) 17:39, 10 September 2018 (UTC)
