Editing SmashWiki talk:User pages

Kinda an important policy which had near unanimous support at the end. Shouldn't this be passed? [[User:Mr. Anon|Mr. Anon]] ([[User talk:Mr. Anon|talk]]) 21:37, 21 July 2011 (EDT)
:Support was far from unanimous, and this policy isn't important anymore as there haven't been user page problems. In short: no.

:::::::True, but that is because we never actually got the voting round. The policy was reformed to fit suggestions. We also need a user/user talk page policy, something this wiki lacks. Toomai's proposal here seems like a good policy that includes many of the unwritten rules that remain unopposed. As such, I '''support''' this policy.

== We have to stop being apathetic ==

I noticed users running into userpage problems a lot lately. And as such, we need a userpage policy. I '''strongly support''' making this an official SmashWiki policy immediately.

:::::::"''Why should I have to use the watchlist function for '''my''' fucking user page when it's some other user who's being an ass about something on there?''"

:::::::I'm pretty sure a user being an ass on your userpage would be them vandalising your userpage.

:::::::"''I was not threatening to vandalise your user page. I was simply presenting a situation in a sarcastic sort of way.''"

:::::::Threat or not, you vandalising my userpage is irrelevant to the matter at hand, and had no merit in the argument.

:::::::"''Your vandalism example fails because they are not following rules in the first place by vandalising, and I am referring to situations where another user changes something they think is a violation of their rights or policy or something.''"

:::::::Your own example was of a user vandalising userpages, and I responded as necessary. In situations where a user removes a policy violation, they can explain it in the edit summary, and a message on the talk page is just redundant as I already explained.

:::::::"''Why is it so hard to require a talk page message? It's not just for me; what if a user is new or rarely active?''"

:::::::Regardless of you're active or not, the watchlist still works fine. And why is requiring that talk page message unnecessary for notifying users? There's an option you can check that emails you whenever a page on your watchlist is edited. If you're paranoid over your userpage being edited for whatever reason, put your userpage on your watchlist, and check that option. There you go, you get a direct message whenever your userpage is edited. There's absolutely no need for this policy to force users to leave a redundant talk page message. No matter what this policy says, if you miss an edit to your userpage not made by you, it's your own fault, and the Wiki does not need to cover for you.

:::::::In the end, you're arguing over minor semantics, and opposing a perfectly fine policy over it. Policy already suggests users to leave a redundant talk page message, and as I pointed out, you can still get notified of your userpage being edited regardless of if a user leaves that talk page message. <span style="font-family:Edwardian Script ITC; font-size:12pt">[[User:Omega Tyrant|<span style="color:forestgreen">Omega</span>]] [[User talk:Omega Tyrant|<span style="color:forestgreen">Tyrant</span>]]</span> [[Image: TyranitarMS.png ]] 01:47, 4 September 2011 (EDT)

== Subpages ==

I think we should make it a rule that you must have all of your subpages linked to from your userpage, or have them all linked to from a subpage directory. It would prevent unlinked subpages from being "lost" (which could prove important if we ever have space issues and have to impose hard subpage restrictions, where we would get rid of non constructive subpages from inactive users), and it would make them easier to be kept track of (which will help us monitor users creating excessive subpages). <span style="font-family:Edwardian Script ITC; font-size:12pt">[[User:Omega Tyrant|<span style="color:forestgreen">Omega</span>]] [[User talk:Omega Tyrant|<span style="color:forestgreen">Tyrant</span>]]</span> [[Image: TyranitarMS.png ]] 17:21, 25 September 2011 (EDT)

== This "relationships with other users" thing ==

This is getting pretty stupid as far as I'm concerned. Rating other users by how much you like them is nothing but trouble and has proved to be such ever since the concept has spread from the userpages of the few to those of the general public. I'd like options on how we can kick it down a notch or seven, maybe even banning the concept (though that's a stretch).

:I would support banning them. They do nothing but strain relations farther between users, and lead to nonconstructive squabbles between users on talk pages that turn into outright insulting. Knowing what users anyone of nonprominence likes is not interesting in the slightest to begin with. It's just a retarded concept started by egocentric and tactless users, and with mine and RD's mocking of it making it even more popular, the only way to kill the fad is to ban it. <span style="font-family:Edwardian Script ITC; font-size:12pt">[[User:Omega Tyrant|<span style="color:forestgreen">Omega</span>]] [[User talk:Omega Tyrant|<span style="color:forestgreen">Tyrant</span>]]</span> [[Image: TyranitarMS.png ]] 23:16, 20 September 2012 (EDT)

This is too specific of a ban. We can't solve all of our problems by just making a rule that outlaws every little thing that goes bad on the wiki. Policies are supposed to be general rules that help the Wiki function in the long run, not specific rules we implement to solve our the problems of the now that won't be relevant in a week. We either need to ban the concept or just kill the matchup charts in other ways and then let it pass. Also, I would like to point out that if we ban the user matchup charts, it can be argued that it conflicts with the "X bugs me" is not a personal attack and therefore does not break policy provision.

:There's nothing wrong with banning something specific that has no constructive value and only has the potential to cause needless user disputes and disruption on the wiki. This isn't something that "won't be relevant in a week"; these "relationship matchups" have existed for a while now, and are only growing more popular. I'll also point out that saying we should find other ways to kill it without making any actual suggestions is hardly contributing.

:"''Also, I would like to point out that if we ban the user matchup charts, it can be argued that it conflicts with the "X bugs me" is not a personal attack and therefore does not break policy provision.''"

::Banning "lists of how much you like other users" is general enough to cover all the problematic cases while leaving things open to other possible lists of users (matchups, funny stuff, etc). I would like to leave the door open somehow for those like RD's because of how obvious it is they're a parody, but that's probably not feasible.

If these do get banned, then alongside that rule on the policy page, I would discourage the basis of these matchup charts, that being "Users I have met on this wiki". We can't ban those, as they do nothing to cause conflict, but they are plain pointless. As if anyone would care if you spoke to a rollbacker once, it's easy enough to just leave something on their talk page. On the same sentence that explains the banning of these matchup charts, I would discourage these too, in the style of a guideline. As for banning these charts in the first place, I'm neutral on that matter.

::Besides the aforementioned lack of actual reasoning there, I'll briefly say why that's a terrible and half assed way of dealing with this; it makes the Wiki look like tools who are afraid of negativity, and that will still cause problems (for example, someone who thinks they're your bestest friend sees you rated them lower than they like and starts arguing with you on your talk page over it, or someone who thinks you're their friend takes offense when you don't rate them and proceeds to argue about it). Plus, it still has absolutely no potential constructive value nor is of interest to anyone. <span style="font-family:Edwardian Script ITC; font-size:12pt">[[User:Omega Tyrant|<span style="color:forestgreen">Omega</span>]] [[User talk:Omega Tyrant|<span style="color:forestgreen">Tyrant</span>]]</span> [[Image: TyranitarMS.png ]] 23:54, 24 September 2012 (EDT)

-==Red links policy==
-I would like to raise the issue of red links appearing on user pages and subpages. Currently, the only restriction on this in place is to not create links to articles that are not intended to be made. However, it has been brought up by users such as Omega Tyrant that linking to wanted pages - pages that ''are'' supposed to be made - can also be problematic, as it could serve to artificially inflate the number of red links to a wanted page, pushing it up in the wanted pages cache, which can only display a limited number of pages. Should there be rules in place restricting the ability to link to wanted pages on user pages? And if so, how strict should these restrictions be?
