Something's wrong with comment sections

The comment sections on some of the pages keep loading endlessly and won't show up. Is there any way to fix this? SuperStreetKombat (talk) 01:48, February 24, 2024 (UTC)

Comments are loading fine for me. That being said, I do have one complaint with comments in that they're not mobile-friendly; this issue can easily be fixed with CSS, as I have done before. Tali64³ (talk) 02:20, February 24, 2024 (UTC)

Well, it's mostly the Warner Bros. Discovery page with the comment section that won't load. Also, how can an issue like this be fixed with CSS? SuperStreetKombat (talk) 02:43, February 24, 2024 (UTC)

Your perceived issue with comments not loading probably can't be fixed with CSS; my issue with comments not being mobile friendly definitely can. Tali64³ (talk) 04:50, February 24, 2024 (UTC)

I'm using mobile, and do you mean to tell me that the comment section on that page is beyond repair because I'm using mobile? That wouldn't be good if that was the case. SuperStreetKombat (talk) 05:06, February 24, 2024 (UTC)

The issue I'm describing applies to the Comments extension in general, not just that specific page; however, the page you're having issues with does appear to fail for me, not just for comments but for every other section. Tali64³ (talk) 05:09, February 24, 2024 (UTC)

Well, do you think there's something wrong with that page? Can anything be done about it? SuperStreetKombat (talk) 08:05, February 24, 2024 (UTC)

Probably not but I can save a link to the page and forward it to OA at some point if he can see anything internally.

The extension has and will continue to have bugs, some of them being difficult at best to resolve or appearing and disappearing quite arbitrarily. It is what we're left with now, the ship on a replacement has sailed unless there's a proper movement to change it. --Raidarr (talk) 10:27, February 24, 2024 (UTC)

Y'know, I'm starting to think that the reason why a lot of comments and videos aren't loading on many pages is because those pages have WAY too much content, like the Mario Movie page and the Warner Bros. Discovery page, since those pages have SO MANY details that I can't access the comment sections in them at all. I wonder if I should try to trim them down a bit? SuperStreetKombat (talk) 02:18, March 7, 2024 (UTC)

I agree. This is for the best. Snow (talk) 02:56, March 7, 2024 (UTC)

Too many embeds would probably affect comments, I don't think detail itself is the problem although it's always not a bad idea to wipe out pure nitpicks or gigantic lists if a page already has plenty going on. Maybe consider a limit to how many embeds as that is what would cause the most stress from a software perspective though OA could probably say better than me exactly. Comments are frankly a partially broken jank system that I take for a grain of salt if it specifically works or not. You, SSK, should particularly remember the problems Miraheze had with that extension. --raidarr (💬, admin) 11:25, March 7, 2024 (UTC)

Should the second season of the Clone High reboot be a good page?

Because I read and watched reviews of it and most people aggre that this season is way better than the previous one. Batboy234 (talk) 20:28, February 26, 2024 (UTC)

If it cumulatively seems more positive then the page should focus on those improvements yes. --Raidarr (talk) 23:08, February 26, 2024 (UTC)

I recently watched the second season of the reboot, and while this season is an improvement over the previous one, I still think that the overall season is still mid at best. Especially with the first few episodes being just as rough as the first six episodes of the first season of the reboot. As well as the unnecessary gore and swearing still being present. Maybe have the perspective written as decent or average? Snow (talk) 02:47, February 27, 2024 (UTC)

The difference is barely distinguishable to be honest. Just ordering the positives/negatives differently and slight tweaks to other bits and to categories. I think a balance to average it out as better but not quite there listing improvements first and then reiterating negatives wouldn't be too hard. --Raidarr (talk) 09:34, February 27, 2024 (UTC)

Avatar The Last Airbender (2024)

So the new Netflix Avatar reboot came out and while I enjoyed it, it has some serious problems, should we add it? Drag0n (talk) 02:05, February 27, 2024 (UTC)

So far, all I could say about the series is that it is a vast improvement from M. Night Shyamalan's infamous live action movie. Though it's still not as good as the original animated series. It can be added, but maybe the perspective of the page should be written in the mediocre/decent/average tone. Snow (talk) 02:52, February 27, 2024 (UTC)

Night Swim (2024)

Night Swim came out at the beginning of this year, and people DON'T seem to be too kind to it. Should we add it here?

SlashcraftGaming (talk) 22:54, March 5th, 2024 (UTC)

If you want to. Then add it. (Drag0n)

Re; Topic headers.

I believe having relatively free reign on topic headers would be a good idea. As far as I know they're not particularly harmful, most users here don't have a problem with them, and having every word in a header start with a capital can be a bit unsightly.

Any possible covering on Sweet Baby.Inc or is this not allowed on this wiki?

Hi, as of a couple days ago I've been tuning into some exposure of Sweet Baby. Inc covered by WDW Pro and many others and I'm not sure if Sweet Baby.Inc is gonna get its own article on this wiki or not. If you don't want to add it in, don't worry, I can accept and take no for an answer. NL(TheRealCecil) (talk) 21:07, March 13, 2024 (UTC)

I actually plan on adding that company to this wiki because of their actions, and I'll work on their page in my sandbox beforehand. SuperStreetKombat (talk) 2:53, 13 March 2024 (UTC)

What is wrong with them? a game having a diverse cast doesn't always mean that it is bad, you can have a game with a protagonist of color with a good story and good gameplay and a game can be still bad if it features a white male protagonist, most of those games that are hated for being woke are bad for having bad gameplay or story or any other reason that isn't it having LGBTQ+ characters, there are good media that have LGBTQ+ characters. MandalorePrinny (talk) 02:45, March 17, 2024 (UTC)

SBI is just a narrative consultation studio, they don't actually do much. The steam group thing was also blown way out of proportion, the steam group was made deliberately to boycott SBI for having a "woke agenda". The employee who was suggesting to report them was doing the right thing. MisterSandmanAU (talk) 03:19, March 17, 2024 (UTC)

Why transphobia is bad?

I want to know transphobia is bad since I was talking with a transphobic friend and I not decided to explain why transphobia is bad to him because I did not wanted to be betrayed like those friends that once betrayed me and I still miss. I have befriended some transgender persons and in my opinion trans people deserve to get nromal jobs like anyone else. Any good arguments to refute transphobia?. MandalorePrinny (talk) 02:39, March 17, 2024 (UTC)

Uuuuuhhhhhh.... do I even need to explain why it's bad to be transphobic? SuperStreetKombat (talk) 7:47, March 16, 2024 (UTC)

Please say it so everyone can know it!. MandalorePrinny (talk) 18:13, March 17, 2024 (UTC)

Because it's offensive to trans people and they'll feel discrimated against if you say anything offensive to them or call them any slurs? Are you serious? SuperStreetKombat (talk) 11:35, March 17, 2024 (UTC)

Transphobia is literally just discrimination against trans people. I don't think I should have to elaborate on why that's bad, especially since SSK gave a pretty succinct answer. MisterSandmanAU (talk) 08:44, March 18, 2024 (UTC)

Okay, I started to hate conservatism because I have been researching and I discovered that a lot of conservatives are homophobic bigots, not all of them take it to the extreme but still. MandalorePrinny (talk) 03:07, April 3, 2024 (UTC)

That is very obivous MandalorePrinny (talk) 17:57, March 20, 2024 (UTC)

This is probably a poor place to find arguments that are going to work on that friend. Transphobia along with other behaviors like homophobia and racism aren't something you can talk out of a person casually. If you want to make a difference you need to understand why they think that way and it's probably upbringing, often religiously laden, and a lifetime of assumptions backed by whatever contrived supports they wanted to make for it. If you confront and argue you'll make him defensive. Defensive = no progress, no mind change. You're not going to undo these overnight. You may be able to subtly prove them wrong and if you're really fortunate you might figure out a way to strike at the heart of the bias and loosen him up a bit, assuming he's not constantly reinforced by other factors. But it's probably too complicated a matter to go on about here and I'd look for dedicated resources elsewhere on the internet for this topic. --raidarr (💬, admin) 09:54, March 18, 2024 (UTC)

I've befriended some trans people on internet and I think they deserve to be happy and have the same rights like everyone else, but is ironic how they call gender-reassignment surgery "mutilation" but they don't say anything about other surgeries like those to remove parts of your body that have a cancer, by that logic other types of surgery are also mutilations, ironic. MandalorePrinny (talk) 16:59, March 22, 2024 (UTC)

Also there are straight people that let babies get circumcised and that has even caused deaths, no children should get circumcised. MandalorePrinny (talk) 03:02, April 3, 2024 (UTC)

Religions are responsible for many horrible things that have happened in history like conflicts, sexism and many other bad things. MandalorePrinny (talk) 03:03, April 3, 2024 (UTC)

A user called Angry109 keeps edit warring with me

A user named Angry109 keeps edit warring on the Modern Cartoon Network page over the infobox quote, he wants it as the new slogan for CN, but the other quote is funny to me, can staff talk to them?TheMoonandEarth (talk) 21:33, March 19, 2024 (UTC) TheMoonandEarth (talk) 22:29, March 20, 2024 (UTC)

I'll handle this. SuperStreetKombat (talk) 00:45, March 21, 2024 (UTC)

i think the original caption should remain because if i had to guess i would say more people on the wiki want that caption instead of the one Angry109 wants ToTheEdge (talk) 17:26, March 21, 2024 (UTC)

A vandal named Wacki came here, and is changing infoboxes quote into nonsense and adding nonsense display titles to pages, I believe they might be -abigblueworld. TheMoonandEarth (talk) 03:28, March 21, 2024 (UTC)

Should pages for the flash seasons 1-6a in good media and 6b-9 in bad media be created

i've watched the show and while i have heard criticisms starting with season 3 i started hearing it called bad much more often when season 7 premiered and i would say the decline really kicked into full gear after Crisis on infinite earths happened which is why i'm saying 6b i'm asking because this might end up being disputed so i want to know where it is generally considered to have become bad - ToTheEdge (Talk)

Are websites going to move to ShoutWiki's Rotten Websites Wiki?

I noticed pages about website are less added and ShoutWiki's RWW still exist. Oldwish12 (talk) 11:46, March 23, 2024 (UTC)

I'd also forgot to mention if this wiki exclude other entertainment industry music and radio. Oldwish12

No decision has been made regarding pages about websites, but I'd personally be in favor of moving them there (for negative pages, at least, since no FWW exists at the moment). Tali64³ (talk) 23:59, March 27, 2024 (UTC)

Website pages should move and be removed as they are not in scope here. Likewise, music & radio are not in scope either. --raidarr (💬, admin) 00:41, March 28, 2024 (UTC)

Most negative pages have been moved; positive ones will remain for the moment (unless another admin decides to delete them) since there's no wiki to move them to. Tali64³ (talk) 02:28, March 28, 2024 (UTC)

About Jirard the Completionist

Okay, so I'm sure pretty much a lot of people, including ones from this wiki, probably know about the controversy surrounding Jirard the Completionist and his charity months ago, and pretty much everyone has turned on him because of it, and almost no one will probably ever take him seriously again, so I'm wondering if we should continue to use him as a reliable source to various pages on this wiki despite what he did months ago. SuperStreetKombat (talk) 04:12, April 1, 2024 (UTC)

I'm not quite sure anymore, considering what he did... CarltheToonMan42 (talk) 04:18, April 1, 2024 (UTC)

Wait, is embezzlement really that SERIOUS of a crime, I barely heard about what it is.--TheMoonandEarth (talk) 04:23, April 1, 2024 (UTC)

If anyone really considers him reliable and uses him as such that should stop for sure. If it's a side opinion and wasn't clearly plagiarized (the real issue that probably strikes a good number of reviewers at this point), it can be a backup reference as embezzlers can still be right about things. As crimes go it's not the worst but it's bad enough and outs him as a dirtbag so nothing should be dependent on him either way. --raidarr (💬, admin) 08:38, April 1, 2024 (UTC)

Do you guys agree with the term “If buying isn't owning, then piracy isn't stealing”?

I recently saw a YouTube video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rUFDRAEducI&ab_channel=SalC1) that shows if you didn't migrate your Minecraft account to Microsoft one after the migration window ends then you lost access to Minecraft and the 20-ish dollars you paid for the game is now gone and even if you send your proof of purchase to MS, Then they will send you the same automated response from MS saying that the migration window is ended.

Also Ubisoft said that that gamers should be “feel comfortable not owning their games” (https://en.as.com/meristation/news/ubisoft-gamers-should-feel-comfortable-not-owning-their-games-n/) and then delete inactive accounts unless there's a purchase in the account (https://www.pcgamer.com/ubisoft-clarifies-it-does-not-delete-inactive-accounts-that-have-purchased-games-after-its-policy-came-under-question/)

So a message to all New Qualitipedia users and admins, Do you guys agree with the term “If buying isn't owning, then piracy isn't stealing”? If not, then why. FrankInHD2010 (talk) 02:00, April 6, 2024 (UTC)

It's irrelevant if we do or don't tbh, the law is what it is and the law explicitly lets companies screw users in these manners. For that reason I draw the line that this discussion cannot go into advocacy.

That being said I think piracy is a scare-word that doesn't actually apply to unauthorized copying (you can't steal what was never a single hard thing, however the act of unauthorized copying is no brighter than dark grey at the best of times) and copyright is a runaway evil used to justify absolute garbage behavior and regressive practices like these. So morally I do agree and to an extent am probably even more radical. --raidarr (💬, admin) 08:38, April 6, 2024 (UTC)

Alright, also fun fact: In the Minecraft official website, the word "buy" in the "Buy Minecraft" button is now changed to "get", meaning "Get Minecraft" which increased the debate whatever or not buying and piracy are indeed owning/stealing.FrankInHD2010 (talk) 17:52, April 6, 2024 (UTC)

I wonder if some good medias have this, mainly because some bad medias do have some good morals. Sejdini3333 (talk) 01:41, April 17, 2024 (UTC) It depends on the specific media you're talking about, but some good media really have bad morals. YouTubePoop2000 (talk) 15:07, April 22, 2024 (UTC)
