Hi, DangerousJXD. We had a discussion a few months ago about the infobox picture of Batman. The current picture doesn't show his full costume and we agreed the Alex Ross picture wasn't much better. I found [https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/5/53/Batman-Comic.jpg this image] and would like your opinion on whether or not you think it's a good candidate for the infobox picture. If so, I'll discuss this on the talk page about seeing what other editors think. I just wanted to run this by you first. Drawn by Jim Lee, it's promotional art for ''Batman: Rebirth'' #1 (June 2016) and shows the full costume in frontal view. Thanks, [[User:DrRC|DrRC]] ([[User talk:DrRC|talk]]) 02:49, 19 August 2016 (UTC) |

:Hey [[User:DrRC|DrRC]]. I think this new image is, overall, better than the current infobox image at [[Batman]], and I would support this change. The difference in quality and appropriateness for an infobox between these two images isn't as glaring to me as the last discussion, but I would lean towards this new image. (I hate ''some'' of Alex Ross' art with a passion.) I will be watching for any discussion you start. —[[User:DangerousJXD|DangerousJXD]] ([[User talk:DangerousJXD#top|talk]]) 03:20, 19 August 2016 (UTC) |

Batman Image
Hi, DangerousJXD. We had a discussion a few months ago about the infobox picture of Batman. The current picture doesn't show his full costume and we agreed the Alex Ross picture wasn't much better. I found this image and would like your opinion on whether or not you think it's a good candidate for the infobox picture. If so, I'll discuss this on the talk page about seeing what other editors think. I just wanted to run this by you first. Drawn by Jim Lee, it's promotional art for Batman: Rebirth #1 (June 2016) and shows the full costume in frontal view. Thanks, DrRC (talk) 02:49, 19 August 2016 (UTC)
- Hey DrRC. I think this new image is, overall, better than the current infobox image at Batman, and I would support this change. The difference in quality and appropriateness for an infobox between these two images isn't as glaring to me as the last discussion, but I would lean towards this new image. (I hate some of Alex Ross' art with a passion.) I will be watching for any discussion you start. —DangerousJXD (talk) 03:20, 19 August 2016 (UTC)
- Glad to hear, DangerousJXD. I started a discussion regarding the image on the Batman talk page. Your input would be great appreciated. Take care, DrRC (talk) 17:23, 19 August 2016 (UTC)
DangerousJXD, I add a few other options on the talk page, and I'm leaning towards this one, considering how high the quality of this image is. Thanks again for your input. DrRC (talk) 00:50, 20 August 2016 (UTC)
- I think any one of the proposed images would be a suitable choice for the infobox; they are all the ideal type of image for an infobox and are good quality images. I do not really have a strong opinion on which image out of the ones being suggested so far should be used in the infobox. I will continue to watch the discussion and comment further as necessary. —DangerousJXD (talk) 03:13, 20 August 2016 (UTC)
Jokić
Do not remove power forward from Nikola Jokic. You probably never heard for him before he signed in NBA, but i know him for many years and he also plays power forward, which was actualy his primary position in Europe. There are milion sources with that information, so do not remove that. I also provided a website of ABA league that is reliable, its offcial league website.--Bozalegenda (talk) 01:43, 24 August 2016 (UTC)
- Calm down mate. I was handling the article how all NBA player articles have always been handled in regard to position, height, etc.: listing exactly what Basketball-Reference and/or NBA.com list. You didn't need to post here either; I give up easily enough. Further discussion is unnecessary. —DangerousJXD (talk) 03:09, 24 August 2016 (UTC)
Cover of The Dark Knight Returns
Hi, your input in this matter would be greatly appreciated. Essentially, the cover of The Dark Knight Returns has been overused in too many articles and is being considered for deletion in many articles. I for one believe we should keep it in the Batman and The Dark Knight Returns articles. Thanks for your time! DrRC (talk) 20:53, 26 August 2016 (UTC)
- Hello, DrRC. I would prefer not to get involved in this particular discussion as it's discussing things that are more outside my knowledge. The Batman image discussions are essentially "which one is the coolest" whereas this is more like "let's delete things for any reason we can find as we delve into the rulebook". I have little knowledge of uploading images and such in general. For what it's worth, I would say keep for The Dark Knight Returns and Batman, remove at the other articles. —DangerousJXD (talk) 22:36, 26 August 2016 (UTC)
- That's completely understandable. Thanks for your response. DrRC (talk) 23:37, 26 August 2016 (UTC)

Doctor Doom in other media
I have requested that Doctor Doom in other media be semi-protected. In the mean time, I'd suggest opening a sock investigation if you haven't already. DarkKnight2149 05:04, 10 September 2016 (UTC)
- Darkknight2149, that will stop the troll at that particular article for now. I didn't bother requesting protection myself because they troll many articles and I don't care about them. I'm just reverting a troll. As for opening a sockpuppet investigation, I simply don't get involved in those. With IP hoppers like this one, I feel that any actions taken will be frivolous. Since they don't actually get on my nerves and their edits are incredibly easy to find (too me, they're just making a fool of themself), I'm happy with reverting them until they get bored and move on. After all, they are a ten-year old (copycat games, likes Clash of Clans, immature trolling). You or anybody can handle a sockpuppet investigation if it is deemed necessary to start one. I just prefer not to get involved in things that aren't focusing on the article namespace. —DangerousJXD (talk) 05:16, 10 September 2016 (UTC)
- After doing some thinking, I believe it would probably be better for me to go to WP:ANI (if necessary) rather than opening a sock investigation because the user just seems to discard their IPs after using them for an edit or two (which renders any blocks completely redundant to said IP addresses). I'll probably gather a list of the user's IPs, then take it to ANI, and see if a range block is possible. That seemed to help when I was dealing with the Nolantron debacle. DarkKnight2149 21:40, 10 September 2016 (UTC)
- Right now, I'm just going to wait and see if the user stops anytime soon. DarkKnight2149 21:42, 10 September 2016 (UTC)
- So it's Monday where I'm located, and in case you were unaware, they haven't stopped trolling. Now they're moving more towards the 'I'm innocent' approach, and have mixed up their trolling a little. —DangerousJXD (talk) 21:08, 18 September 2016 (UTC)
- Alright. I'll try to file the report sometime within the next 24 hours. DarkKnight2149 21:13, 18 September 2016 (UTC)
- Thought I'd note this. Possibly the same user and you may wish to note this in the list you are compiling. It's suspicious. The user rocks up all of a sudden to correct a grammatical error at my user page in a section that mentions trolls. They have two total edits, both to my user page. —DangerousJXD (talk) 22:21, 18 September 2016 (UTC)
- Will also note this. The link there is what I was referring to in the below section (them personally attacking admins or something like that; haven't been watching for any of that). —DangerousJXD (talk) 09:47, 19 September 2016 (UTC)
Clash of Clefairies
Hey there. I noticed that an IP user was trying to say that Clefairy was in the game Clash of Clans, a claim which you reverted. While I do personally think that the Clash game is a bit childish, you might find it helpful to focus on discussing content rather than contributors. Civility's one of the five pillars of Wikipedia, and calling a user an unfunny "childish ten year-old" just isn't as effective or respectable as noting that the user's claim was unsourced.
It's just a suggestion; I'm not an administrator, and I'm not saying that what you did was wrong, but I've found myself getting hot-tempered at other users and ultimately being viewed negatively as a result. Just thought I'd offer some advice. Cheers! –Matthew - (talk) 23:08, 13 September 2016 (UTC)
- The IP hopper has been trolling all over Wikipedia for months, just so you know. They are a self-admitted troll. They mostly engage in this particular behaviour but they have harassed some other users. I haven't been watching any of their actions directed towards what seem like random editors but I know at least one of the IPs they have used was blocked for their personal attacks on an admin. Of course, several users have reverted their edits and multiple articles have been semi-protected. See the section directly above this one. Anyway, that particular comment is a summary of the whole matter. It is the last comment I intended to make on the matter that isn't a generic revert edit summary. I will continue to revert their trolling and stick to ignoring them until they move on. As for being angered by their trolling, that's not true at all. I see their trolling as the most childish trolling I have ever seen and it thus does not annoy me. If anything, I'm laughing uncontrollably. As for lacking civility, I believe my attitude towards this user has been appropriate and there's nothing outrageously uncivil coming from me. I understand how one should handle such matters and I believe I'm doing fine. They're just a troll. —DangerousJXD (talk) 03:02, 14 September 2016 (UTC)
- @MatthewHoobin: If the user doesn't stop pretty soon, then I'll probably end up taking action. Even though DangerousJXD is doing a good job reverting this user, there is still potential damage to the Wiki due to the possibility of undetected vandalism (esp. if the user uses a new IP address to edit an article of a different topic). My initial thought was to open a sock puppet investigation, but that would probably be pointless since we know it's the same user and they seem to discard their old IP addresses, from what I've seen so far. What I'll probably end up doing is gathering a list of IPs and filing an administrative report to see what next steps need to be taken, such as rangeblocks (for instance). That seemed to help with putting an end to the Nolantron incident.
- @DangerousJXD: I'll let you know if anything comes from this, but I understand that you don't really want to be involved in this sort of thing. DarkKnight2149 04:52, 14 September 2016 (UTC)
- I'll certainly monitor anything that you ping me to and provide input if necessary, but yes, I'd rather not be spending too much time at a noticeboard or sockpuppet investigation. —DangerousJXD (talk) 05:16, 14 September 2016 (UTC)
- My apologies. I wasn't aware that this had been going on for so long. –Matthew - (talk) 16:00, 14 September 2016 (UTC)
- It's fine. I certainly wouldn't throw around the 'just a punk kid' comment at some random IP that I'm not familiar with. In fact, I'd say my first interactions with the user were far too lenient, especially since they were playing this game with another user, who asked me to intervene. —DangerousJXD (talk) 21:05, 14 September 2016 (UTC)
Disambiguation link notification for September 19
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Lisa the Iconoclast, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Miss Hoover (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.
