== RE: Template standardization ==
+
I understand what you mean, but if you don't mind I have an idea. In the episode pages that have galleries to display pictures from the episodes, how about I create a gallery page for the romantic couples for Shinichi and Ran and Heiji and Kazuha. However don't worry, I won't do anything until I hear what you think first. --[[User:Sbrady538|Sbrady538]] ([[User talk:Sbrady538|talk]]) 23:00, 24 April 2016 (CEST)
  
First of all, thanks for the initiative! :) Regarding the template, I'd convert it into a "DCW"-flavored layout (so that we're not too much like wikipedia in the way we present things - plus we like to focus on presentation, readability and attractiveness/user-friendliness in our own unique way). For example, songs have the pink color here in this wiki. It's alright, I'll have a quick look if you don't mind and see how nice I can make it look like. As for the documentation, we don't really use the Doc template here since we're certainly not as big as wikipedia (which does need to centralize a lot of their processes). We can simply include a "usage" section in the template itself in between &lt;noinclude&gt; tags, a bit like how it was done here: [[Template:InfoBox_Music]]. I hope that answers your questions! Btw, don't forget to edit [[Anokata]] to redirect the link to the song to its local page here. Keep up the great work! :) --[[User:Maurice|Maurice]] 20:22, 1 January 2011 (UTC)

:I don't have access to the movies/episodes right now, so I can't double check, but this is how I would decide. A character can only reoccur if they are the same character as the person from a prior appearance. A character is more than their appearance, they are also a personality who does certain things. Some characters like [[Azusa]] went through several character designs because the animators were forgetful, but she was always the same person: the main waitress at the Poirot who voiced by the same woman. On the other hand, certain background people may look the same because the animators recycled old designs rather than bothering to create new ones, but the characters are not meant to be the same people. These lookalikes are pure filler. A character is really only the same one if they have the same position and behave substantially similar to their previous appearances. It's a bit of a judgment call. I can tell you what I think for these two cases when I have access to somewhere I can watch the movies/episodes. I can tell you right now without seeing anything that I am very skeptical of Toshio Moroboshi, a character developed specifically for movie 6, showing up 2 movies earlier. That would be a violation of [[Wikipedia:causality|causality]]. It would be okay to mention in trivia that someone who looks like Toshio appeared two movies earlier in trivia, but I would not list it in his appearances page or recurring character page. The first is airing an interesting speculation, the second is declaring a fact.

It seems picture thumbnails on other pages are still messing up. Also it seems one of the [[User:Jimmy-kud0-tv2/Non-Canon_BO_images#Movie_20_Spys|guidebooks released this year had bad information]], which resulted in me uploading M20's Aquavit and Riesling's photos in the wrong file names. I tried to fix it by simply moving both of those existing images to temporary names and then uploading new pictures to the original file names, but that didn't seem to work and they are still showing the original pictures. I have uploaded the same correct image twice to each file name. The 116 size image is the correct male Aquavit image, and the 123 size image is the correct female Riesling image. If you do manage to fix it, then the image file names will need to be switched back to their original positions on a bunch of pages (like M20) that that one anon edited after he/she noticed that they were incorrect (example:Riesling character box has Aquavit file name so right name with picture). In addition I have also uploaded cleaner (less light reflection) versions of the volume 90 keyhole and detective that also haven't updated to the newest version on the pages they display on. --[[User:Jimmy-kud0-tv2|Jimmy-kud0-tv2]] ([[User talk:Jimmy-kud0-tv2|talk]]) 16:50, 22 August 2016 (CEST)
==Is Okiya a Rival to Scar meaning Scar is Not BO but likely FBI==

{| style="float:left;"

The way I see it is that the way Okiya reacted to Scar no getting shot leads me to believe they are not enemies but rivals. A enemy would be glad at the others misfortune. Okiya remark smiling "wolfs missing their prey". To me it seems like he was glad scar was not killed. if Scar had been Okiya's Enemy, I would have expected a remark like "Rats! he is still alive" Also suggesting Okiya is a rival to Scar is Okiya reaction to Conan about how Conan prevent Scar getting killed again with that smile. He seem glad

+
{{clear}}
:My interpretation of that quote was that [[Okiya]] was being ironic. If you go by the theory that [[scar Akai]] is Bourbon, Okiya noticed scar Akai was on the floor with him and that Chianti was set up to kill someone. Okiya realized that the person the BO was after was scar Akai, and that Gin and friends had made a mistake. Okiya knew scar Akai managed to safely get away without being shot because there was no panic about someone being shot outside the store. His comment was a sarcastic remark that the "stupid wolves" (BO) who were trying to kill their own agent by mistake not only let the guy they were trying to kill (scar Akai) get away, but they also completely overlooked the real Akai (Okiya). Okiya called it a silly story because the mixup made the BO look foolish.
 
:Okiya already figured out why Conan acted to keep scar Akai from being shot; Conan wanted to keep everyone safe without knowing the full situation. Also Conan is the type that wouldn't want to let anyone die, even a murderer or a member of the BO, and I think Okiya can appreciate that viewpoint.
 
:Even if you go by the theory that Scar Akai is Bourbon and Okiya is Akai, it could be that Akai views Bourbon more as a "rival enemy" rather than a "mortal enemy" like Gin. We know that Bourbon hates Akai, but Akai might not view Bourbon with the same amount of hate. [[User:Chekhov MacGuffin|Chekhov MacGuffin]] 19:14, 3 January 2011 (UTC)
 
 
 
::I think by the time Conan "called" customers back in. He did not know Okiya was there. He assume Scar Akai is real Akai so he try to save him. -User 4869
 
:::I don't think Conan was sure who scar Akai was at the time. His "Could it..." "Could it be..." may be followed up by "Bourbon?" or "Vermouth?" because I'm sure, following the bank heist, Conan thinks it doesn't make sense that Akai was out of disguise in public and would happen to appear at a place where the FBI were. (Remember Conan knows Okiya is Akai) After the bank heist, Conan is probably leaning towards the real Akai not being a fool and that someone was impersonating him for some reason, probably a member of the Org. Conan's only info comes from the DB, so he might think scar Akai could be Vermouth who might act to save hm from the bank robber.
 
:::Back at the dept store, when Jodie grabbed him, Conan had a really nervous expression, but it changed when Jodie mentioned the coaster with the warning Akai's writing on it. I think Conan becomes confused because leaving a warning like that is something the real Akai might do, so he decides to protect whoever this scar Akai is now and figure it out later. Luckily Okiya steps in and clarifies things for Conan with his "I know that person from a long time ago" quote. Chekhov MacGuffin 17:17, 6 January 2011 (UTC)

== Next Conan's hint, Bullet? ==
 
[[Image:Scar Akai gun manga vs anime.JPG|thumb|right|150px|In the the anime version of the Teito bank heist case, scar Akai's scar and the skin where the duct tape which had covered his eyes are visible. In the manga, it is much more ambiguous; the gun and the shadow of the hat scar Akai is wearing hide the scar and the part of his face where the tape had been removed from his eyes. If Scar Akai is someone wearing a mask this could result in an anime error. ]]
 
 
 
What is your opinion of "Next Conan's hint" from Episode 503 (which is bullet) since in next episode (504) only time bullets were use is when Kir shot Akai. Can it be interpret as "The bullet is fake"
 
You appear to avoid to mention non-conan scene when Okiya appear in the same time as Kaitou Kid to prove Okiya is not Kid. I wonder if you discard the Hint thing for the same reason.
 
-User 4869-
 
:Yeah, I tend to avoid using things from the anime as evidence since it is unreliable for hints. They make mistakes like turning Fusae Campbell and Billy into generic looking shadow people when they followed the detective boys, and even recently messing up scar Akai's shooting scene. (See picture at right) The bullet could be a hint that Akai was going to "die", or that a "silver bullet" was involved, or maybe Gosho tipped off the animators and it really was a hint the bullets were blanks. Who knows?

== Re: Plot overviews ==
 
 
 
Okay, I get the point. However, personally I would recommend establishing '''Plot Overviews''' on their own entry pages, as I think that for sone characters these would get too extensive, even in abbreviated form, for the main description to hold comfortably. A link (for instance "See: Conan Edogawa key situations" or something) leading to those entries would be suggested.<br>In addition, I think it would also be better if the '''Character Background''' included a brief summary of how the character was introduced to ''Detective Conan''. I noticed that you re-added the sections describing how '''Heiji Hattori''' had first met and eventually found out about Shinichi/Conan's secret to the '''Plot Overview''' section. From the narrative style angle, I personally say: not recommendable. The character's introduction should blend into the respective '''Background''' as smoothly as possible, and then the '''Plot Overview''' can flesh out the details of he first meetings and then pick up from there. At least, that's how I would have done it.<br>And by the way, one last message: The section you re-added to [[Sango Yokomizo]]'s '''Personality''' section about him having never learned to swim is already included in the '''Background''' section and is therefore a bit superfluous.[[User:Daniel46|Daniel46]] 17:21, 15 January 2011 (UTC)
 
:Precisely what I'm talking about! For instance, Heiji's and Kazuha's backgrounds should in any case include how they first met Conan and company and how friendly relationships were established, something I have relocated to the Background sections in some cases. Finer and more details should be contained in the Plot Overviews, like, for [[Ai Haibara]], her encounters with the [[Black Organization]], how her love interest - if she really gets one - evolves in the series etc., while the gist of it should be mentioned in the Background section, if it significantly shapes her character evolvement. I think the summarization work I've done so far should serve as an adequate example for this style.[[User:Daniel46|Daniel46]] 18:29, 15 January 2011 (UTC)
 
::Perhaps it's a misunderstanding or a poor choice of expression from my part, but I think just the same. I've just included a summarization of how Conan managed to dissuade Vermouth from pursuing Ai anymore in Shiho's/Ai's Background section. Exactly HOW this was achieved can be dealt with in detail in the Plot Overview, if one would want to cover this. Likewise, I think the appearance of Subaru (suspected Bourbon) is likewise worth a subsection which I have called "The boling point" in the Background part, since I think this encounter is highly significant. Exactly how significant it acutally turns out must be found as the series continues. I hope it won't be too long before Aoyama finally comes to a resolution, though; after all, DC has been running on for 6 years already![[User:Daniel46|Daniel46]] 18:43, 15 January 2011 (UTC)
 
 
 
== Setting Sources? ==
 
 
 
Could you please provide your sources for the edits you made for the Setting page?  Things like "District 5" and the "B" you list for Shin'ichi's residence.  The only known source for his address I've found is Movie 1, and there is no mention of him living in "house B". It wouldn't make sense.  The reason Holmes is mentioned to live in 221B Baker Street is the number of the flat and the specific room he's located in.  The Kudous own that entire house and it's not split up like a duplex or something similar, so why would the "B" be necessary? '''EDIT: Found another reference for Shin'ichi's house.  Conan Drill page 41 lists the address as I previously had listed on the page minus the "B".'''

== Canon vs. Non-Canon ==
 
 
 
By "a user", do you mean Abs.? :)
 
 
 
Regarding the canon vs. non-canon content flagging, I hear you. Although we do already have a "Manga source" label in an episode's profile box (e.g. [[Roller Coaster Murder Case]]) as well as a "Manga source" column for season lists which says if the episode is an AO or manga-based (i.e. which files and chapters it's from), adding color to the mix would indeed be a nice touch. And you're right about the other pages: it would be harder to tell if a piece of info is canon or not. And labeling these pieces of information as such would be even harder. Maybe we'll be able to think of some kind of syntax or code (e.g. color code) to flag explicit non-canon statements. I'm used to facing such "presentation" challenges so I'll see if I can think of a neat way of doing this. But to be honest, I would say that it's not quite a priority at this time as long as, for example, non-canon info is referenced as such with proper citations (and because they don't represent a necessity on the readability, comprehension and user-friendliness fronts --> it's really just an extra feature).
 
 
 
But to go back to the episodes, I believe we can come up with some better labeling system for their profile pages. I wouldn't color the whole page like you suggested since, as per wikipedia's standards, some background-colored pages do hold certain meanings, such as system, projects, portal pages (and more...). We're not quite using something similar here "yet", but it could happen in the future, who knows. Something like a "Magic Kaito" portal, etc... What we could do in our situation here would be to style the profile box of an AO episode differently. Again, we may need to think of a nice layout and some standard for that as well. I'll definitely spend some time thinking about possible styling options and see what could be great candidates for our purposes. Once again, I wouldn't say this is a priority either but since it's easier to do (and really a nice plus), we can focus on this one for now.
 
 
 
Thanks for the good ideas btw! And I'll see if I can play around with the BO chart table when I have some time (I totally own those ebil tables >:P). --[[User:Maurice|Maurice]] 00:34, 19 January 2011 (UTC)

== Kyousuke Kazato ==
 
 
 
But [[Irish]] was part of the BO, which is quite a substantial fact by itself, making him an "important person". It seems the character [[Kyousuke Kazato]] was only introduced for the purpose of the movie and nothing else (plus he was arrested, which means he won't be appearing again). I just see him as one of the people involved in the movie's "case" and should as such be presented/mentioned on the movie's page only. However, he could have his own section/subsection on the article page to describe in details the character and his role/impact in the movie. But I'm definitely open to suggestion. How do you see him? --[[User:Maurice|Maurice]] 01:40, 1 February 2011 (UTC)
 
:Yeah, I see what you mean. I guess it wouldn't bother me too much either but if we make a page for him, we should logically make pages for other such characters who only appear for a specific case. However, what we could do in the future is a "List of culprits" page (which we could break down into anime cases, movie cases, etc...). And, even further down the road, we could have a "List of suspects" page, etc... We could make redirects for the names to the subsections of those lists. Just an idea for now. --[[User:Maurice|Maurice]] 01:54, 1 February 2011 (UTC)

Something about Natsuki turning to Conan to ask him this question bothers me, but I can't put my finger on it... am I overreacting?
 
:It was definitely deliberate. Conan didn't hide his intellect during that case much. She was treating him as someone knowledgeable.[[User:Chekhov MacGuffin|'''<font color="#B22222">Chekhov</font> <font color="#2F4F4F">MacGuffin</font>''']] <sup>[[User talk:Chekhov MacGuffin|'''<font color="#696969">talk</font>''']]</sup> 03:14, 5 February 2011 (UTC)
 
 
 
2. The other thing is the entire case of the Night Baron bothers me -- the one with the floppy disk and the guests at the hotel. I'm not sure why, but it just... does for some reason. Checkhov, are there any cases out there that just bother you? Like you feel like when you watch it, you're missing something?
 
 
 
Thanks Chekhov!!

:Night baron case with the disk: You can read more about the [[List_of_minor_recurring_characters#Kaneshiro_family|Kaneshiro family]] here. I wonder if the reference to the Org at the beginning was because the Nigh Baron virus would be would be used later? The biggest unsolved mystery for me is Akai's rejection from the Org story. I have already pinpointed the part that bothers me: the random old guy who walks in and sits down. It doesn't make sense that the guy is Vermouth because they were testing Akai to see if he was worthy to meet Gin and not setting a trap. Using Vermouth would be throwing a different executive agent to the wolves. It had to be someone else. Do they matter? How Akai found James Black in the Panda case still bothers me to this day. Itakura and the history of his program bugs me a little because I keep wondering if there were more hints about what it was about.

== Episode title profile pictures ==
 
 
 
Now that you mention it, there's never really been a consensus or official standard for that. As far as I can recall, it was an idea CC suggested a long time ago: [[User_talk:Maurice#Images]]. I personally don't mind having a picture from the episode as the profile picture. It would indeed be more colorful and expressive. I'd say go ahead and start changing those images. If the need for further discussion arises from this, we may have to add an "official standard" later to the MoS. --[[User:Maurice|Maurice]] 03:54, 5 February 2011 (UTC)
 
:Sounds like a good plan. As for the naming convention, I was thinking that we could rename the title cards to, say, "TV_Episode_X_Titlecard.jpg" (old conventional naming scheme + "_Titlecard" suffix). As for the actual profile screenshot (i.e. for the profile box), we can keep the current naming convention: TV_Episode_X.jpg. Actually, now that I think about it, we could even get rid of the "TV_' prefix since the fact it's an "Episode" already makes it clear what's it's about (moreover, OVA and Movies are already named OVA_X.jpg and Movie_X.jpg). I think it would also be a wise idea to start adding categories to those images, such as "Episode profile images", etc... --[[User:Maurice|Maurice]] 03:05, 7 February 2011 (UTC)

== Magic Kaito timeline ==
 
 
 
The Magic Kaito timeline takes place at the same time of the Detective Conan timeline, despite both of them being frozen. This can be proven in many ways:
 
 
 
-In both the first chapter of MK and Kid's debut in DC, 8 years have passed since Kid's disappearence.
 
 
 
-All MK chapters take place in a short amount of time, since charcacters always attend the second year of high school. Kaito has only a year left to find Pandora and in DC he is still after it.
 
 
 
-In Kid's debut in DC, in the end, both Kaito and Aoko have Ekoda High school uniform, meaning that they haven't gradueated yet.
 
 
 
-Hakuba is 17 in both Dc appearences, as aspected from a second grader.
 
 
 
-In volume 4 of MK, the frame of chapters 3-4 is set simultaneously of Kid's debut in DC, while the flashback is set when Shinichi is already famous, just before he was shrunk.

As you said, in V16-6, chapter 156, or anime ep 76, that Agasa said, "Shinichi-kun, I have compiled some information from your father's files and the recent newspapers, but Kaitou 1412 still seems to be shrouded by mystery. He first appeared 18 years ago in Paris. Ten years later, he suddenly disappeared, and many said he passed away. However, now, eight years later, he has resurrected and is now mostly active in Japan".
 
 
 
Kid first appeared 18 years ago. Ten years later [i.e. 8 years ago] he suddently disappeared. He has "resurrected"  eight years later, i.e. eight years after his disappearence eight years ago, i.e. few months ago. Read also the evidence I posted above.

:This is something Maurice will have to do. I've tried the Wikipedia technique of forcing an update by appending ?action=purge to the end of a image, and while it works at first, it doesn't seem to stick. I think there is a maintenance cycle where Wiki purges its cache and then recreates the thumbnails. This isn't something in my league as far as I know.

Hi, it's Random Fan again (who asked about the Kaneshiro family a while back). Chekhov, do you think that there are any people within FBI/CIA/"The Good Guys" who are actually double agents working for Black Syndicate?

== Thumbnail errors ==
  
== Request ==
+
It seems that the thumbnail errors only occur if the image uploaded has to be resized on the wiki's end. If an image is uploaded already at the size that one wants to display (pixel wise) then the image will still display correctly on the page it is linked to. For example, the person who tried uploading multiple versions of the Case photo for [[The Death God Jinnai Murder Case]] was not able to get it to display correctly because the Info Crimebox resizes the photo to a standard size of 290px. However I just reuploaded the image at 290px and it displays correctly on the page! I guess that will be the only way around the thumbnail issues until the problem is fixed. --[[User:Jimmy-kud0-tv2|Jimmy-kud0-tv2]] ([[User talk:Jimmy-kud0-tv2|talk]]) 01:58, 15 September 2016 (CEST)
Mr. MacGuffin, I have a request for you. Could you go to Lupin III vs. Detective Conan and can you upload Lupin III, Jigen, Fujiko, Goemon, and Zenigata's images that's 100 px on the Cast section? For me, it takes a long time to make into a square shape so could you please do that? I would really apprecaite it. --[[User:S261157|S261157]] 01:55, 14 April 2011 (UTC)
+
:My understanding is that when a page calls for a resized image the wiki software does something like...
 +
:Originally-sized uploaded image --> function that resizes image --> save resize in the cache --> display resize from the cache when a wiki page calls for the image at that size
 +
:It only has to run this once and then can call the image from the cache after that, unless a new size is called for. The problem seems to be in step 2 or 3. I'm not sure which. I would not be surprised if it had something to do with the related problem we had where the image and the cached copies were not being updated when a new image was uploaded. You should PM Maurice with these findings. Good idea on the workaround for now.

Given that the Anime still hasn't even touched on the Haneda Kouji case yet, nor have they even gotten to the Envelope case, I'm wondering if things like the identity of the Middle Bro, Father Akai, and Shukichi's mention of Kouji need to have spoiler soft redirects similar to the one seen on the page: "[[Bourbon]]". An then reverting some of the Akai family pages so that they link to those soft redirects rather than directly linking to those pages, so that the Anime only people don't get way too much information for just clicking on a single link. --[[User:Jimmy-kud0-tv2|Jimmy-kud0-tv2]] ([[User talk:Jimmy-kud0-tv2|talk]]) 22:37, 24 September 2016 (CEST)

Hmm, they look exactly the same to me. And I used the standards from Wikipedia to make the template. To sum up, it behaves exactly like that on Wikipedia as well. I don't see any weirdness or bug about the template... So, I'm not sure what could be wrong here.
+
Imgur link with slightly higher definition : http://imgur.com/a/4ycqK
  
And as for having multiple articles in the "main" template, it is perfectly fine as well. That's how Wikipedia does it too. The "main" template was made to handle several links (and a lot of them). However, I could maybe see where S261157 is coming from when saying to leave it as Law Enforcement only: having the two links like that looks like presenting a general topic then a subset of that same topic. It's more common to use many "main" articles when they compliment each other or extend on two similar but different subjects. It could seem a bit redundant and possibly confusing to the reader (who could maybe ask why we have two links to introduce the [[Law Enforcement]] topic in DC). I must admit I'm ok with both ways though. It might be simpler to leave it as Law Enforcement and simply further guide the reader on the corresponding page if he/she wants to know more about minor characters. What are your thoughts on the subject? --[[User:Maurice|Maurice]] 01:30, 17 April 2011 (UTC)

I noticed that you said that the source of his name has bothered you. It seems his name appears in episode 785 (air date July 18, 2015) even though it did not appear in the manga version of the same scene (opening the sealed move envelope). if we want to take that as confirmation that it is indeed his name going forward.--[[User:Jimmy-kud0-tv2|Jimmy-kud0-tv2]] ([[User talk:Jimmy-kud0-tv2|talk]]) 02:53, 27 April 2017 (CEST)

Ms. MacGuffin, can you try to contact Shogakukan at info@shogakukan.co.jp? I try to ask them a question of that they can contact the authors like Gosho Aoyama. But they won't respond to me. I was thinking maybe it was the tsunami problem. There's also another thing that I just don't get it. If the Detective Conan manga always get published at Shogakukan. Why don't they ever respond to my question? Of course I send them a message by using Japanese language and English message (just in case) but why won't they ever respond to me? So you know I was kind of asking you a favor. Can you try to contact Shogakukan at info@shogakukan.co.jp? --[[User:S261157|S261157]] 04:26, 9 May 2011 (UTC)

== One page or multipage case? ==
 
  
I think it's alright to have them be on the same page due to the way the episodes are set up: they indeed act like "parts" even though the titles are different. It would be more convenient for the reader to read about the cases if they're told in the same context, and thus the same article. When I face a typical challenge like this, I always put myself in the reader's shoes and think of what's more convenient and the best way to convey the information. So, I think it makes sense in this case to talk about the different episodes on one single page. I'm just curious though. Where did you get the names for the case titles: "Tomorrow is There" and "Thirteen Red Shirts"? Or did you make those up? --[[User:Maurice|Maurice]] 01:33, 16 May 2011 (UTC)

I've read the discussion between you guys and I don't think this is as big of a deal as it seems... I believe speculations in this wiki are alright as long as they're backed up by intelligent comments and contextual references. I also think it's a good idea to separate facts sections from speculations ones so that the reader knows what he/she's getting into. For example [[Subaru_Okiya#Identity]] implies that we're getting into the realm of speculations since his "identity" is unknown. In this case, this section is valid and has merit. The point is that users may want to look for well-informed objective views on a subject at times and as a "fansite wiki", we have the potential and power to do so. We want a wiki that relays facts but that can make you think as well. That's not a bad thing. Even Wikipedia sometimes have speculation sections on specific subjects/topics because it makes sense to do so. Just one example after a very quick search on google: [[wikipedia:Royston Cave|Royston Cave]]. Anyway, that about sums up my thoughts I think. --[[User:Maurice|Maurice]] 18:14, 19 May 2011 (UTC)

Hi, I want to point out that two years ago you blocked an Italian IP, but the block had the unfortunate effect of also preventing me from editing this wiki, even though my IP is completely different to that of the person you wanted to block. I tried writing from other computers, from two different Italian regions, but all of them were blocked. The ban was meant to last one year, but aftet that you prolonged it for one more year, .until it finally expired yesterday. If you ever need to block an Italian IP again, I hope that you can find a way of doing it without other unregistered users being involuntarily affected by the ban. --[[Special:Contributions/185.93.230.10|185.93.230.10]] 14:54, 9 March 2018 (CET)--

I have a problem with the Voice Cast of some episodes (in occurence episode 536, 627-628, 652-655 and 602). I posted it also on Skyechan's talkpage but she (or he?) didn't answer me. It (because I don't know Skyechan's identity) said it helped me fix it on episode 651 but it didn't work on these three. Thanks for helping (if you can).
::Rest assured Aoyama doesn't visit my talk page. I doubt Aoyama has even heard of DCW, DCTP or any of the English fan forums. He probably couldn't read it even if he did. I realize the name "SJ" is somewhat uncommon and could possibly lead to this page being google searched especially in coordination with Detective Conan. So I have abbreviated it to just the initials so it cannot be found via google search.

== Dark Blizzard soliloquy images all wrong ==
  
==Detective Boys Template==

Can you delete all the soliloquy images starting from 2019-02-18? I have no idea where Dark Blizzard is taking them from but they’re not the original pictures, maybe they’re compressed or something I don’t know nor do I care. I have saved all of the original pictures but the wiki is stupid and is telling me “this is a duplicate” when I try to replace Dark’s ones (I may be doing something wrong idk). They’re not duplicates, Dark’s are missing a lot of metadata, have different colors, and different file sizes. So can you just go ahead and delete all these so I can upload the originals? A few of his dates are wrong too but that’s besides the point.

:I'm not sure how to best put this, but if you are getting this emotional and bent out of shape because we allow wikilinks in the people section, then you need to take a step back and reconsider what you are ultimately trying to achieve by editing the wiki in the first place. The most important goal of editing case/episode listings is to provide a highly informative, comprehensive, and accessible guide to each case. However, each case is different, whether it be length of airtime, number of episodes, cases, manga vs. anime differences, major events, spoilers in weird places, etc. Because of this, it is impossible to create a unified page layout and format style that best presents every case. That's why when it comes to page layout and formats, there are no rigid rules. There are preferred rules which govern some article aspects which are detailed in the manual of style - but there will be cases where those rules will be modified, or even outright ignored because breaking the rules makes the wiki better by making it easier read, navigate, etc. Furthermore, that doesn't mean the way it's been done up until now is the best. That's why there has been a shift, albeit slow, towards including episode galleries, replacing the titlecards with episode pictures, gadget sections and other stuff like that. Part of being a good editor is flexibility: recognizing when habitual practices like [[Holmes Freak Murder Case|one infobox per case]], [[The Strange Person Hunt Murder Case|not including unusual sections]], or [[Head-to-Head_Match_with_the_Black_Organization:_A_Dual_Mystery_on_a_Full_Moon_Night#People|not listing main characters in the people section]] collide with making the wiki better and siding with making the wiki better. If dealing with something different makes you this unhappy, I would suggest you pick something else to do, like uploading pictures, or add better case descriptions to cases.

I've talk about Superintendent General Hakuba and Toshio Moroboshi background appearance in "Trivia". What do you think? --79.16.7.86 17:05, 5 May 2016 (CEST)

I don't have access to the movies/episodes right now, so I can't double check, but this is how I would decide. A character can only reoccur if they are the same character as the person from a prior appearance. A character is more than their appearance, they are also a personality who does certain things. Some characters like Azusa went through several character designs because the animators were forgetful, but she was always the same person: the main waitress at the Poirot who voiced by the same woman. On the other hand, certain background people may look the same because the animators recycled old designs rather than bothering to create new ones, but the characters are not meant to be the same people. These lookalikes are pure filler. A character is really only the same one if they have the same position and behave substantially similar to their previous appearances. It's a bit of a judgment call. I can tell you what I think for these two cases when I have access to somewhere I can watch the movies/episodes. I can tell you right now without seeing anything that I am very skeptical of Toshio Moroboshi, a character developed specifically for movie 6, showing up 2 movies earlier. That would be a violation of causality. It would be okay to mention in trivia that someone who looks like Toshio appeared two movies earlier in trivia, but I would not list it in his appearances page or recurring character page. The first is airing an interesting speculation, the second is declaring a fact. Chekhov MacGuffin talk 20:43, 5 May 2016 (CEST)

Picture previews are messing up again

It seems picture thumbnails on other pages are still messing up. Also it seems one of the guidebooks released this year had bad information, which resulted in me uploading M20's Aquavit and Riesling's photos in the wrong file names. I tried to fix it by simply moving both of those existing images to temporary names and then uploading new pictures to the original file names, but that didn't seem to work and they are still showing the original pictures. I have uploaded the same correct image twice to each file name. The 116 size image is the correct male Aquavit image, and the 123 size image is the correct female Riesling image. If you do manage to fix it, then the image file names will need to be switched back to their original positions on a bunch of pages (like M20) that that one anon edited after he/she noticed that they were incorrect (example:Riesling character box has Aquavit file name so right name with picture). In addition I have also uploaded cleaner (less light reflection) versions of the volume 90 keyhole and detective that also haven't updated to the newest version on the pages they display on. --Jimmy-kud0-tv2 (talk) 16:50, 22 August 2016 (CEST)

File name for female Riesling
File name for male Aquavit
This is something Maurice will have to do. I've tried the Wikipedia technique of forcing an update by appending ?action=purge to the end of a image, and while it works at first, it doesn't seem to stick. I think there is a maintenance cycle where Wiki purges its cache and then recreates the thumbnails. This isn't something in my league as far as I know. Chekhov MacGuffin talk 21:54, 22 August 2016 (CEST)
DCW burecratas should check this out ^. Cached images is an issue for me too. --Intervencion (talk) 10:09, 12 February 2019 (UTC)

Thumbnail errors

It seems that the thumbnail errors only occur if the image uploaded has to be resized on the wiki's end. If an image is uploaded already at the size that one wants to display (pixel wise) then the image will still display correctly on the page it is linked to. For example, the person who tried uploading multiple versions of the Case photo for The Death God Jinnai Murder Case was not able to get it to display correctly because the Info Crimebox resizes the photo to a standard size of 290px. However I just reuploaded the image at 290px and it displays correctly on the page! I guess that will be the only way around the thumbnail issues until the problem is fixed. --Jimmy-kud0-tv2 (talk) 01:58, 15 September 2016 (CEST)

My understanding is that when a page calls for a resized image the wiki software does something like...
Originally-sized uploaded image --> function that resizes image --> save resize in the cache --> display resize from the cache when a wiki page calls for the image at that size
It only has to run this once and then can call the image from the cache after that, unless a new size is called for. The problem seems to be in step 2 or 3. I'm not sure which. I would not be surprised if it had something to do with the related problem we had where the image and the cached copies were not being updated when a new image was uploaded. You should PM Maurice with these findings. Good idea on the workaround for now. Chekhov MacGuffin talk 18:50, 15 September 2016 (CEST)

Can you fix the Thumbnail errors

The Thumbnail errors still ongoing and not yet fixed. Can you fix the Thumbnail errors. --Mohammedalkhater (talk) 02:33, 15 September 2016 (CEST)

I can't fix it. The thumbnails not showing up are caused by a malfunction of the wiki software that builds and maintains the pages. That is something the owner of the software, Maurice, must fix. I don't have the database source code, I'm just a mod. Chekhov MacGuffin talk 18:32, 15 September 2016 (CEST)

Soft redirects

Given that the Anime still hasn't even touched on the Haneda Kouji case yet, nor have they even gotten to the Envelope case, I'm wondering if things like the identity of the Middle Bro, Father Akai, and Shukichi's mention of Kouji need to have spoiler soft redirects similar to the one seen on the page: "Bourbon". An then reverting some of the Akai family pages so that they link to those soft redirects rather than directly linking to those pages, so that the Anime only people don't get way too much information for just clicking on a single link. --Jimmy-kud0-tv2 (talk) 22:37, 24 September 2016 (CEST)

I have not seen people complain too much, but your idea sounds proactive and kind. I support it. Chekhov MacGuffin talk 05:36, 25 September 2016 (CEST)

The Black Chronicle

You asked someone in the DCTP chat box for the source of the Agasa and Miyano family meet time line thing, I've scanned all 4 pages now. Just a note, since the comment from Agasa about meeting them is actually pointing to the spot between 25 and 27 years ago, then shouldn't it be ~26 years ago that they met ? I kept seeing people say "27 years" in the chat box. --Jimmy-kud0-tv2 (talk) 02:03, 6 January 2017 (CET)

I noticed that !27 discrepancy too, so I was making an attempt to translate to confirm the events, which I am very slow at. I'll continue doing what I can.

Chikara name

I noticed that you said that the source of his name has bothered you. It seems his name appears in episode 785 (air date July 18, 2015) even though it did not appear in the manga version of the same scene (opening the sealed move envelope). if we want to take that as confirmation that it is indeed his name going forward.--Jimmy-kud0-tv2 (talk) 02:53, 27 April 2017 (CEST)

Hideous Anime Aggregate Site Watermarks?

Hey Chekhov, it's been a while. Glad to see the place is still up and running! Quick question for you. I noticed a strange category while reading the Masumi Sera page. [[Category:This page has images with hideous anime aggregate site watermarks]]. There are a few pages that have this category. Do you know anything about it? --Jigsaw (talk) 05:26, 14 August 2017 (CEST)

No Chekhov, but DCW images should be watermarkless. TV watermarks are accepted but let's say a watermark with the name of the anime site on it moving around that's something DCW don't want. I'll check out that category someday and see if there's anything to do. --Intervencion (talk) 10:09, 12 February 2019 (UTC)

Delete image

So I made the mistake of relying on Google translations for a minor character I saw listed in the credits of an episode. As it turns out, the translation was flawed and the character in question has no name. Would you mind deleting this file for me when you get a chance? Thanks! --Jigsaw (talk) 05:01, 28 August 2017 (CEST)

Problem with blocking an Italian IP

Hi, I want to point out that two years ago you blocked an Italian IP, but the block had the unfortunate effect of also preventing me from editing this wiki, even though my IP is completely different to that of the person you wanted to block. I tried writing from other computers, from two different Italian regions, but all of them were blocked. The ban was meant to last one year, but aftet that you prolonged it for one more year, .until it finally expired yesterday. If you ever need to block an Italian IP again, I hope that you can find a way of doing it without other unregistered users being involuntarily affected by the ban. --185.93.230.10 14:54, 9 March 2018 (CET)--

Episodes 536, 627-628, 652-655 & 602

Hi Chekhov! I have a problem with the Voice Cast of some episodes (in occurence episode 536, 627-628, 652-655 and 602). I posted it also on Skyechan's talkpage but she (or he?) didn't answer me. It (because I don't know Skyechan's identity) said it helped me fix it on episode 651 but it didn't work on these three. Thanks for helping (if you can). Nakamura.

Normal Characters

I'm thinking of creating pages for each normal characters and other minor law enforcement characters. I know I'll first need approval. I saw they put pages for normal characters in Conanwiki.org. Do you think it's appropriate?

Go ahead :P Wiki's moto is "be bold" as in don't feel shy to create something. Recurrent characters is better to have pages, but it doesn't hurt to have really minor characters to have its page. --Intervencion (talk) 10:09, 12 February 2019 (UTC)

Dark Blizzard soliloquy images all wrong

Can you delete all the soliloquy images starting from 2019-02-18? I have no idea where Dark Blizzard is taking them from but they’re not the original pictures, maybe they’re compressed or something I don’t know nor do I care. I have saved all of the original pictures but the wiki is stupid and is telling me “this is a duplicate” when I try to replace Dark’s ones (I may be doing something wrong idk). They’re not duplicates, Dark’s are missing a lot of metadata, have different colors, and different file sizes. So can you just go ahead and delete all these so I can upload the originals? A few of his dates are wrong too but that’s besides the point.

Sorry. Well the page looked abandoned. Deleted them for you. The older ones were taken from external source. The last 2 were taken from official Conatsu website and yeah they aren't compressed. Do tell me if any change is required. Since you uploaded new version of the first one, it was kept that way. Thank You. Dark Blizzard (talk) 18:30, 24 June 2019 (UTC)
You’re right your last 2 uploads are good. I tried replacing the other ones and most seem to be fixed, but I don’t think you deleted your 03-01, 03-08, and 03-15 versions? Those are still wrong despite my attempt to replace them. 04-27 too actually.
As far as the rest of the page goes I stopped reading Conan a few years ago and my upkeeping of the page has been dwindling ever since. I still follow the Conatsu site to always save the images because I know those disappear rather quickly and I don’t want them to be lost. I delay updating the wiki though just because I’m lazy I guess.--ALAKTORN (talk) 02:11, 25 June 2019 (UTC)
If you mean that it still shows the old version, it's fine. It is a common problem with the wiki's caching system. It will show the right image after a few days. And, I will be updating that page if it goes outdated for weeks. In that case, just tell me if anything is wrong. Dark Blizzard (talk) 05:29, 25 June 2019 (UTC)
