Hey Les, I was told to redirect this question towards you so I figured I'd give it a shot. I was wondering if might be able to help me with something. a few months back I stumbled upon the "I Am Garoga" song page and saw that it didn't have an English translated lyric part, so decided to do it myself. The problem is, I have a feeling it didn't translate the song accurately enough and it looks really weird looking at it. what I'm hoping is that you might be able to do that it doesn't look wonky anymore

It's written "(i.e., 1989) which means "(that is, 1989), and "the Dave Matthews Band" is also written correctly, just like writing "the Beatles".
I've never noticed a comma being used after "i.e." and frankly I think it looks kinda silly, but it seems common from what I see online, so do as you will.
"The Dave Matthews Band" is definitely wrong though. I don't know the specific reason why, but Wikipedia takes care to (mostly) never use the preceding article. You even knew this at one point, because you reverted your own edit adding it. I don't know if maybe you have genuine memory problems, which I don't want to be insensitive of, but it is getting exhausting to repeat myself about all of this minutiae.
I think I've added enough information (with citations) to Sandbox:Soviet nuclear missile submarine to allow it to be promoted. Let me know if there's anything else I should add to the sandbox!
sorry to bother but does Assault! Armor Jack! happen to fall in the wikis scope?
I don't see a case for it. No official relation to anything we cover, nor any key Godzilla or Gamera staffers.
i see! thank u!
There's supposed to be a period where I put it; it's an abbreviation. It's supposed to be written "S.P." for 'Singular Point".
The show's Japanese title is ゴジラS.P, without a final period. In this case it is proper.
Thanks, I didn't know that.
What section do you think this deleted scene should fall into?

What exactly is a User Page? I have a Social Profile, but no User Page and you have one with all your information. I was hoping to know more about the User Pages and if I'm supposed to have one.
A social profile is the default, and gives you a template that you can fill out with your information. A user page is a blank slate that you can edit the same way as any other page, so it gives you free rein. When I click on your name it goes to the user page, it's just that you haven't added anything to it yet.
What typically goes on the user page?
Anything you want, really! A lot of people use an infobox for their basic information and then have lists in the body of the article for their figure & video collections, favorite movies & monsters, etc.
Oh interesting. Are there templates to choose from?
I recommend looking at the source code of an existing user page, like Les's.
If you hit the "edit" button on your user page, there's also the visual editor, and you can search for templates under the insert button.
What is the green box with info called that Les has on his page so I can have that on mine through the template search feature?
I'm using Infobox Person but some people also use Kaiju Infobox or Infobox Character. Depends what kind of information you want to display.
Les, Killer Whale was released on DVD in the U.S. in 2024; it even says so in the "Video releases" section. Why remove this fact?
The opening paragraph doesn't need to mention every video release. The thrust of the sentence is that the 2023 releases were the first in the U.S.
Les, Godzilla did fight the Thing as a heavily-mutated version of himself in The Thing #31, and Mothra vs. Godzilla's page does write this film's U.S. title as Godzilla vs. The Thing. What's wrong with these two edits?
Going into the mutation stuff just seems like a tangent. The important fact is that Godzilla met the Thing twice.
I just put "...ends." at the end of two films in the anime trilogy and one film in the Fest Godzilla series because that's just how it happened. If you don't state, no one new here will know it.
