== RE:Thunderbirds ==
I was thinking to just have a proper, full-on thread going over it all, but your plan is probably a good idea, as we have definitive rule 4 for that, and then move on to the rest of it. On the other hand, perhaps a full-length thread would be a good idea, as I think we're going to have more or less the same amount of difficulty convincing people that they should be covered, and much the same arguments apply. Any help you could offer would be much appreciated, I've been researching it over the last couple of days and will probably be ready to make a start on the OP soonish.

: I think Fireball XL5, even "Space Vacation" would be a lot more difficult to validate than even Captain Scarlet under the current rules. We'd need a pretty major rule change first (which may or may not happen with [[Forum:Rule 4 by Proxy and its ramifications: considered in the light of the forum archives]]. Looking like it's probably a no, though). Also, though a nice idea, asking people to chip in on the validity debates wouldn't be terribly helpful, as blind assertions of agreement don't do much in forum threads, it's all about the arguments.

::I do feel like it would be easier to start with Thunderbirds, with possibly Captain Scarlet at the same time and possibly leaving it for a bit later, and then doing 21 afterwards, and then leaving Fireball until we've got retroactive licencing, because currently people won't accept anything with licensed DWU elements that debuted before the DWU elements popped up in DWU media.

Ah. Okay. I assume you're on desktop/laptop? I don't use mobile, can't comment on how to do it for that. Firstly, there's three dots near the search bar. You need to hover over them and then scroll down to "upload file". Like [https://imgur.com/a/d8OocH6 so]. Click on "upload file" and you'll get a page like [https://imgur.com/a/XJX0uSS this]. Click "choose file". It'll open a new window where you have to navigate to the file on your computer's file system. (Or, if you have it on your desktop, you can just drag it into the opened window and it will snap to the appropriate place.) You then have to give it a decent name that accurately represents the file and a license from the drop down list. (There's a bunch, you'll figure out which one works best.)

Re: discussion board question[[edit source]]

Hi, in response to your discussion board question about the forums, you can find the list of wiki admins here: Tardis:Administrators. Thanks Shambala108 02:55, 10 December 2021 (UTC)

Re:Tables[[edit source]]

If you want, I can add your support to the proposals you want. Just lemme know which ones on my talk page. Najawin 22:02, 24 February 2023 (UTC)

thanks for the offer I may take you up on it at a latter date when I have got the hang of editing other things.Anastasia Cousins 22:56, 24 February 2023 (UTC)

Re:Forum Validity a better world.[[edit source]]

Hi. I'm not the admin you contacted, but I have already locked the thread and will be writing a closing post soon. Bongo50 16:47, 22 August 2023 (UTC)

I do hope at some point the thread can be re done as I feel the topic is import to nail out for the characters concerned in the story. I just was excited for this thread and for it fall apart so quickly was disappointing. Anastasia Cousins 19:25, 22 August 2023 (UTC)
Sorry I didn't get your message in time. Suffice to say, I would not have pre-emptively closed the thread while there is still more discussion to be had. Shambala108 03:10, 23 August 2023 (UTC)
I didn’t really want to close it I just wanted someone with some level of authority to step in and give them a stern talking to. But it seems that bongo felt the only option was to close it down. I myself think that in a year or so it should be restarted this time with less bad faith accusations.Anastasia Cousins 07:28, 23 August 2023 (UTC)
Yeah, too bad, I would have given everyone involved in the argument a stern talking-to, but left the discussion open. But User:Bongolium500 is a relatively new admin and sometimes it takes time to learn these things. Shambala108 15:30, 23 August 2023 (UTC)

Discussion boards[[edit source]]

Hi, regarding your post in the discussion boards "@Shambala108 you said previously not to call someone a homophobe unless they have called themselves a homophobe Correct?", could you please link to the place where I supposedly said that? I don't remember ever saying something like that, but it's probably something that I said that was interpreted a certain way. If I could see what I said then I can better respond to it thanks. Shambala108 15:22, 5 September 2023 (UTC)

I can not remember exactly where but I will go back through and see if I can find it. I am pretty sure it was you who said that.Anastasia Cousins 17:00, 5 September 2023 (UTC)
whilst I could not find it I have made a a lot of posts and it was a few months to a year ago now. However I would like a Very brief temporary block from the discussion pages if not the editing pages as recently the pages for the the Harry Potter corssovers have been being updated and they rubbed me the wrong way (not the edits themselves but because something created by someone’s who’s ideology is so anathema to mine links to my favourite franchise) and I got so pent up I felt like I would wack it in any discussion if I could.
