[edit] Zanpakutou
There's rumor that details about his zanpakutou were released in the Wii guidebook. Can anyone confirm this? Kurotsuchi mayuri 19:00, 11 January 2007 (UTC)
- Even if, that couldn't be taken as an offical source. Lord Air 07:15, 4 February 2007 (UTC)
- Doesn't have to be official, it just needs to be reliable. Kraft Foods could make a press release announcing new information about Ulquiorra and that information could be cited... though admittedly, one would find such a souce quite unusual. –Gunslinger47 08:16, 4 February 2007 (UTC)
- Exactly: reliable source. And your example wasn't a realiable source. Anyway, I don't remember saying anything against a citation.. just remember what's official and what's not. Lord Air 03:23, 5 February 2007 (UTC)
- My point is being "official" has nothing to do with reliability. Secondary sources are acceptable. –Gunslinger47 03:50, 5 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Image
I don't know why the filepath suddendly "doesn't matter", but the image doesn't show up without the proper filepath. That would communicate to me that the filepath does matter. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Biokinetica (talk • contribs).
- It works for me regardless of whether a space or an underscore is there, and every other form of link in Wikipedia is the same way. For instance Characters in Bleach vs. Characters_in_Bleach. --tjstrf talk 23:40, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
- It shouldn't make a difference. Besides, the picture was origninally uploaded without an underscore. // DecaimientoPoético 23:41, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
Whether or not it shouldn't desn't matter; it does make a difference. -Biokinetica 00:05, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
What does this look like to you? And if it really doesn't matter, then why won't you leave the edit alone? -Biokinetica 00:12, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
- It looks like your browser isn't keeping up. The Wiki formatting allows for underscores to be replaced with spaces to no ill effect. — Someguy0830 (T | C) 00:23, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
"Isn't keeping up"; what a wonderful, descriptive explanation. But you still haven't answered the subsequent question. -Biokinetica 00:26, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
- I thought so. To be clearer, however, it means that your browser simply gave up on loading the image. Happens to me a lot. As for the "_", it's the principal of the thing. Underscores are evil. — Someguy0830 (T | C) 00:30, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
What the effing hell? "...the principle of the thing. Underscores are evil"? What kind of logic is that? And if this really happens so much, then maybe wiki's infallible formatting shouldn't be trusted anymore... -Biokinetica 00:35, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
- This is why it doesn't matter:
- Image location without the underscore
- http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/c/c1/Ulquiorra_mugshot.jpg/250px-Ulquiorra_mugshot.jpg
- Image location with the underscore [1]
- http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/c/c1/Ulquiorra_mugshot.jpg/250px-Ulquiorra_mugshot.jpg
- The supplied URL in both cases is identical. You might be encountering an obscure bug. I suggest analyzing the source code in both cases and attempting to determine why your browser is refusing to render the page properly. If you can't solve the problem yourself, I suggest compiling a bug report to submit to MediaZilla. Regardless of the explanation, the proper method is without the underscore and it's not going to be changed to accommodate one (possibly) broken browser. –Gunslinger47 00:40, 1 March 2007 (UTC)

- To add to that, the image being skipped by the browser is a client-side glitch, not a server-side one, and can be easily corrected with a simple refresh. — Someguy0830 (T | C) 00:42, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
No, it can't be "easily corrected with a simple refresh", because it never shows up.
"Regardless of the explanation, the proper method is without the underscore" -Proper without an explanation; so these are the people i'm dealing with. An edit that supposedly doesn't matter due to an infallible server being reverted simply because the one doing so is scared of underscores. What do you call this? -Biokinetica 20:40, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
