What's wrong with the edits I did now?

First of all Godzilla Raids Again did happen six months later and into the following year after Godzilla That's a fact.

Second, what's wrong with "...from the inside out..."? Everyone says that.

Third, Godzilla and the Lost Continent was the fifth and final novel in Cerasini's series; that's just to separate it from Ciencin's series.

So can these three please get reinserted?

You are adding unnecessary clarification and making things more long-winded than they need to be. These edits are not adding any important or useful information, they're just rephrasing things and making sentences longer without adding anything worthwhile. We've been asking you to stop making these edits in the past, but you keep doing them even after we remove them, then complain about it on our walls when we remove them again. This is an ongoing cycle that seems to never end because you refuse to listen to our feedback and continue to make the same edits and get upset at us for contesting them.

I will make this as clear as possible: Your edits keep being reverted because you are simply overcomplicating or rewording things in some attempt to make them sound more "distinguished," which serves no real beneficial purpose. Almost none of your edits consist of adding new information, they're just rephrasing what is already there. Sometimes you may correct a grammatical or syntax mistake, but a lot of the time you're just making things sound more long-winded and wordy, or changing something that is fine as it as already worded, seemingly just for the sake of changing it. I'm losing my patience because I keep having to comb through your edits and figure out what to keep and what to remove, then when I'm done I can expect you to leave an angry message on my wall, forcing me to explain my reasoning, which is pretty much the same every time.

Daimajin1966 (talkcontribs)

You goofed on one of them. In the Godzilla: Second Generation section in the part on DAM, it said "..., they Godzilla to attack New York City." The word "sent" was one I put in there, then you removed it, so I had to put it back just now. I've got you right there. You goofed this time, not me. I saw it and you didn't. I was right and you were wrong. All of which just goes to show that even your judgments are not infallable.

And you may notice, btw, that I haven't even touched contractions anymore.

And I'm not giving you angry messages; I'm trying to explain things. And I'm not trying to be "distinguished" at all; just presenting facts that I know, like everyone else does here.

I'm sorry, but proclaiming "You goofed this time, not me. I saw it and you didn't. I was right and you were wrong. All of which just goes to show that even your judgments are not infallable" over a small oversight makes you sound really pompous and smug, and it makes the claim that you're "not giving you angry messages" fall apart. Even King's noted that he usually reverts all your edits, then goes through to find the good ones, because it's easier to do that than hunt through all your tiny edits. This doesn't disprove anything, he already knows this.

Frankenstein addition

Daimajin1966 (talkcontribs)

If I might say so, one of my additions to Frankenstein should be put back in; i.e., the one that said that Victor Frankenstein was a medical student, not a scientist, when he created the Frankenstein Monster.

If you've ever read the original Mary Shelley novel as I have, you'll see that's right. So may I please put that back in?

Les (talkcontribs)

The page's Origins section is talking specifically about Frankenstein vs. Baragon, in which he's alluded to as "Dr. Frankenstein."

Daimajin1966 (talkcontribs)

Okay, that's right; I was specifically referring to my addition to the part of that section that talks about the novel, not the film.

Daimajin1966 (talkcontribs)

I was told once that, if a number is the first word in a sentence, it's written as a word, not as a number. Therefore, the way it was is grammatically correct, unless I'm wrong, which I don't think I am here.

Daimajin1966 (talkcontribs)

I beg to differ, but Godzooky is Godzilla's nephew, not his cousin. Everyone knows that. So why was it changed back to the wrong term?

The King of the Monsters (talkcontribs)

No, he isn't. The show's official materials all say "cousin." I've been trying to change it sitewide for months now but you keep reverting it.

Daimajin1966 (talkcontribs)

Okay, thanks. I didn't know that.

Godzilla, King of the Monsters (Dark Horse comic) book covers

3
Daimajin1966 (talkcontribs)

If you look in the references to both covers when you edit it, one says "Godzilla Classic Collection '95 Volume 1 cover 1.jpg" and one says "Godzilla Classic Collection '95 Volume 1 cover 2.jpg". So why can't they be listed as such?

The King of the Monsters (talkcontribs)

I just named them that because I needed something to distinguish the names of the files. They aren't the official names for the covers, so please stop adding them like they are.

Daimajin1966 (talkcontribs)

Okay, thanks.

Chayse R. (talkcontribs)

chayse a. r.

p.s. im really srry about any problems ive caused

Daimajin1966 (talkcontribs)

Is something the matter with placing the Showa Gamera first? After all, he was first.

The King of the Monsters (talkcontribs)

If you look, every monster on the site who has incarnation tabbers in its infobox places the most recent incarnation first.

Daimajin1966 (talkcontribs)

Okay, sorry, I didn't know that. Thanks for telling me.

MechZilla74 (talkcontribs)

Yeah those photos were low quality but they weren't "leaked", they're pictures from the theater program.

The King of the Monsters (talkcontribs)

It doesn’t matter where they’re from, we don’t include low quality photos from new movies on gallery pages.

Zillaman98 (talkcontribs)

Yeah its not really a leak at all if this is actually just pictures from the theather program.


I actually found better quality versions of the pictures as well not scans unfortunately but definitely better quality.

MechZilla74 (talkcontribs)

Ooooh, ok then.

Movie Monster Series edits

3
Daimajin1966 (talkcontribs)

Didn't you just tell me that 'Version" is part of the figures' names? I was just capitalizing the ones that weren't capitalized because I figured you'd forgotten them. Am I wrong here?

The King of the Monsters (talkcontribs)

The edit I reverted was you making them all lowercase.

Daimajin1966 (talkcontribs)

I just did, as I said before, a few near the end that weren't capitalized. Just confirming here. I'll check and see if they're still there.

Godzilla Rivals: Vs. King Ghidorah edits

2
Daimajin1966 (talkcontribs)

Why remove my changes from "Ghidorah" to "King Ghidorah" It's used in the issue, it's his full name, and I say give credit where credit is due.

The King of the Monsters (talkcontribs)

"Ghidorah" is a common shortening of his name that we use across the site. We don't need to say his entire name every time.
