Hello Damesukekun, Regaurds about a translation I posted.
I was informed I needed to contact you about a translation I had posted to the song [//vocaloidlyrics.wikia.com/wiki/鬼火_(Onibi) http://vocaloidlyrics.wikia.com/wiki/鬼火_(Onibi)]

Hopefully you can view over my translation when you have the time and see for yourself if its to standard!

Thank you for your time Damesuke. ^-^ノ

Could you look at this please? I know coleena's on your rec list, but the end of the translation is missing, if you have time, do you think you could maybe finish it up if you can? AngelChu (talk) 22:47, February 16, 2018 (UTC)

About a certain metaphor
Hey, Damesukekun. I hope you don't mind if I ask you this.

Is it true that eating is considered a metaphor for sex in Japan? I tried researching about this but Google won't seem to give me the desired results.

Translation and transliteration clarifications
Hey, Damesukekun. I have a bunch of things I'd like to clarify and I hope you don't mind if you could help me with them.

Here a bunch of small translations and transliterations
 * Does ウグイス売女 really translate to Bush Warbler Whore?
 * 秘蜜〜黒の誓い〜 translates to Alluring Secret ~Black Vow~, am I right?
 * Regarding this video that was listed in the Derivatives section of Hello, Worker:
 * Does まめ助 really transliterate to Mamesuke?
 * Does えのいおり really transliterate to Ehonomi?
 * Does 獅ノ塚 玲央 really transliterate to Nodzuka Reo?
 * Does 若月悠乃 transliterate to Wakatsuki Yuno, Yukino Wakatsuki, or neither?
 * Does ろここ☆ねこ really transliterate to Rokoko☆Neko?

The previous 5 bullets are the people who worked on the utaite chorus video of Hello, Worker that I linked above?

Teto's actual age
Hey Damesukekun, quick question about teto. Does she have two seperate ages? As in a human age and chimera age? I know it's up to interpretation (atlas I think it is i'm not sure), but i'd just like to know officially because someone edited the Kasane Teto page to include both ages.

The16thLetter (talk) 17:11, May 1, 2018 (UTC)

Teto + Vocaloid again
Well, its come up again and again I'm approaching you. Has Teto had any Vocaloid voicebank in any way, shape or form made? A lot of westerners keep using Machine Translators to translate things, and I know this can be bad. If not for the reliance on machine translations and the fact I can't translate it myself, I would not keep asking about this. I really would apricate if something was said if you know on her comment section.

Thanks in advance. One-Winged Hawk (talk) 08:19, June 27, 2018 (UTC)

Translators Lists
Hello Damesukekun,

This is PandaKittenhybrid, a translator that you've put on the neutral list. Starting in January of 2018, my translations have been checked by Forgetfulsubs and the same group of translators that works with Magenetra. Considering this, could you re-evaluate my position on the list? I'd hope to be moved to the recommended list for the same reason that Magentra is on there.

Thank you!

 * The recent check was carried out on this June. I read each translator's latest posts once in a half year for re-evaluation. I know you do understand Japanese, but kinda-denpa songs are your taste in music and it's very hard for even native Japanese speakers to translate them. Unfortunately I found some phrase cutting and particle misreading in your translations that were uploaded this year. Don't take me wrong. You translate difficult songs so slight mistakes can easily sneak in. I don't mean your translations are bad, but listeners should know about the exact reliability of your translations.

Cidrblock needed
Hello Damesuke,

It's after the message of discussion on Viper's page I come to see you, if this is the only way...

We need a cidrblock and sadly Viper doesn't know how to do it. These are the possible cidrblocks against the vandal/troll going on several Wikis:

2001:8003:A885:4B00:0:0:0:0 (all mac adresses beginning by these 4 blocks)

155.205.200.0 (all IP adresses beginning by these 3 blocks)

If it can help saving us some time in the future...

Thanks and sorry if I sound desperate.

 * Thank you for telling me. Blocked them. Damesukekun (talk) 09:17, August 22, 2018 (UTC)

User block
Excuse me, I would like to ask about why you blocked TomboyJessie13. She would never abuse multiple accounts, and she hasn't been on the wiki in a long time.

I am one of the Creators of Sailor Moon NEO. (talk) 14:23, September 11, 2018 (UTC)


 * From what I see from her user page, she's never been blocked. She's only labeled as inactive.


 * A typical blocked user would be labeled as 'Blocked', with a block message appears on their contribution page.


 * I'm not familiar with user tags, so I'm not sure if this wiki set any rules for inactive users.
 * Lynnellet (talk) 14:55, September 11, 2018 (UTC)


 * It looks to me like she might have accidentally been affected by a range block.


 * Octofan (talk) 15:40, September 11, 2018 (UTC)


 * The situation has been resolved, so this message is a followup. We are so sorry for not getting back to this sooner. TomboyJessie13 was indeed caught in a range block intended for another user. She should be out now.


 * - NebulousViper Talk Page  18:55, September 12, 2018 (UTC)

Seems we have possibly another one... :( Not sure which block ID it is though, but it's related probably to the same group.

Tokina8937 04:38, September 13, 2018 (UTC)


 * Thanks Tokina. I'll contact them right away.

The block parameters were changed. Contact me if you still have problems. Damesukekun (talk) 07:16, September 13, 2018 (UTC)
 * Hello there,

CIDR block request
Hello Damesuke and sorry for disturbing...

Apparently we'll need another CIDR block for Amandamay... (Viper and I saw it because the same type of edits, like "create a page from a non-existing one that has been listed in a template") The IP used today is 152.228.188.26.

Try to see what is the best compromise between a 2 blocks or a 3 blocks rule. Either 152.228.0.0/16 or 152.228.188.0/24 (correct me if I'm wrong). The other CIDR blocks are to kept though, they're still well active.

Thanks :)

Copyright violations by Amandamay and possible modifs for the blocks
Hello,

Is there a way you can adapt the CIDR blocks for Amandamay so that her new accounts can be touched as well? Maybe for the large ones see if there is the possibility to restrain them a little so that we avoid false positives. And for the ones that are less... "Poisonous" (not too dangerous), just tweak them a little bit. Not sure if this is possible.

The new accounts seem to be on the new blocks which are "only for unregistered users".

Because she did again the copyright violations... >< We tell her, we tell her, and she never listens...

(Also requested to Viper if it is possible to protect the page of Hachune Miku Paradise, but it's fine if another admin does it if they fall onto it)

Thanks and sorry :s

Tokina8937 18:18, October 7, 2018 (UTC)


 * I'd be careful about CIDR blocks if this Amandamay person is continuously creating new accounts from previously-clean IP addresses. This might be a scheme to poison the well to deliberately trick us into banning clean IP addresses. Damesuke, please take those into consideration when creating the block range. I'd recommend page protection and possibly account-age-based article creation privileges, if they exist for Fandom/Wikia. If they're IP addresses used for proxy servers, then they can be added to the CIDR blocking, as proxies are almost always attack vectors. O Herman (talk) 19:55, October 7, 2018 (UTC)

Herman: to be honest, when I looked at the blocklist for several days, I saw the "autoblocks" enabling themselves several evenings in a row on several of Amandamay's accounts. Which meant her IP is not moving a lot (unlike some others...).

After the problem was with the blocks Damesuke instaured few weeks ago, we got 2/3 reports from innocent users who got caught because the block was too large. In answer to this, Damesuke modified the blocks to only touch unregistered users. A bit normal: like this, the chances of having false positives drops. To a "100% drop level" I'd even say. That's why when I made the request I thought "can we make blocks that are less large to still restrict Amandamay, even if the account is authentified".

For the proxies, Wikia has natively a way to restrict edits using some of the proxies (especially thinking to the TOR's ones, but I don't think Amandamay uses this... Looks more like an IP being a bit more static than for other users).

Are there privileges of account-age-based creation: actually there is only one, the "protect autoconfirmed", refraining accounts being less than 4 days old to do anything. I don't think any other method exists on Wikia... :/

Hope it helps a bit...

Unblock Request
Hi, I was looking through a Project Diva wiki and I saw a message saying my IP address was blocked due to multiple profiles. It said you were the one who blocked it. I was wondering if it would be too much trouble to unblock it please? When I was younger I messed around a lot on different wikis, sometimes for school, other times it was with a friend, so I apologize for that and I also apologize if my younger self had broken any rules or things of that nature. I will take responsibility for myself back then, and now that I am older, since its been years since I was last on a wiki, I would like to be able to look around for information about different Vocaloid Gumi rhythm games. I don't know if you are familiar with any games of that nature, but If you do I would like to talk about it just in case you can help me find the game I'm looking for.

Hope to hear back from you soon!

VisualEditor issues
Hello Damesuke,

In your last edit of Rettou Joutou, there was a lot of breaking in the code due to VisualEditor (so no worries it's not your fault, it's just VE behaving like this)... It has severe problems to interprete the "Shared" template. I think it tries to interprete it a certain way and there is huge data loss in the process. Hence the "weird code additions".

I tried to repair some parts of the edit but I didn't know how to fix everything especially in the lyrics... :( Can you try to see what can be done (go in source editor or rich text editor but not VisualEditor)?

Thanks and sorry :/ It's just not your fault if VisualEditor breaks like this...

Tokina8937 22:59, November 5, 2018 (UTC)
 * Sorry for your corrections. I used source editor. I don't know the reason of code breaking. Damesukekun (talk) 23:30, November 5, 2018 (UTC)


 * Hello, sorry to jump in but it says the history of the page that you used the VisualEditor, most likely by accident. Perhaps it was a glitch or something? Or did you use the source editor inside the visual editor, that you can access at the top?


 * -- akumi   (Need something~?)  23:40, November 5, 2018 (UTC)

by the editor if you save by having arrived within rich text editor. Same goes with VE, the "weird code addition" next to the Shared template happens when VE gets opened. Even if you switch to source just after, it's too late, it's already in the code... :(
 * Didn't even know VisualEditor had a way to switch to source... But the thing is, to better explain, the code corruption happens as soon you open an editor. Opening rich text editor with  ? They will be automatically converted into


 * One of the solutions you could maybe try Damesuke, since you're at ease with Wikicode, go and see in the Preferences page if you can enable Source editor by default (Modification tab (at least its Japanese equivalent), first dropdown menu you see). Like this, this corruption will never happen again.


 * After the same problem remains... The modifications on the lyrics have been lost, plus I saw there were some weird corruptions in the code when it happened. The only thing I could restore when I tried to "correct" it yesterday evening, it was the Reflist. :( Try re-applying the lyrics corrections by entering the source with source editor?


 * Again sorry ><

Okay, I understand. Thank you guys. Damesukekun (talk) 02:21, November 7, 2018 (UTC)

Unrecommended Reprinter
Hiya! I don't mind being listed as an "Unrecommended Reprinter" in your comprehensive list, but I'm uncomfortable having my real, full name on this wiki's pages. :( Would it be all right to update your list to show my YouTube username instead? https://www.youtube.com/user/kurayamiko

I've also removed all the subtitled videos from my channel, so maybe you could also consider removing me from the list completely ... but if you don't want to, I understand. Just please remove my real name from your list. :) Thank you! - El 222.127.8.125 07:25, November 6, 2018 (UTC)

A Request For Your Take On A Situation
Hello Damesuke kun ! I've noticed that there's a certain issue with the translation of a few songs, namely a poor translation being canon material, and I created a post talking about it a few days ago. There's been a suggestion about what to do about it that I think would work pretty well, though we have yet to have an admin weigh in on the situation. and ! it was brought to my attention that you're in charge of translations as it is, so I'd really appreciate it if you could look through the post and weigh in with your thoughts

Tobimisa (talk) 22:03, December 12, 2018 (UTC)Tobimisa
 * Thank you for letting me know. Yes, it's an important question. I posted my thoughts on the board and am waiting for your reply. Damesukekun (talk) 12:48, December 29, 2018 (UTC)


 * I commented on the forum, but FYI my main point is that I don't think standards should be compromised just because a translation is official in some way. It's rare in my experience, but if a translation is significantly misleading or riddled with errors, I don't think it has a place here or on VLW. ElectricRaichu (talk) 10:52, December 31, 2018 (UTC)
