Gorilla Grodd
So that you know, I haven't been able to watch the Gorilla Grodd page due to an impromptu Wiki-break that I had to take after having technology problems. I'm back now, so I will check and see if the persistent trivial non-appearances continued while I was away. Sorry if this is an inconvenience. My absence wasn't planned.

- I just checked. Fortunately, there wasn't any disruptive editing. I'll continue watching the page. DarkKnight2149 21:07, 10 June 2016 (UTC)
- Good to see you back at it. I, of course, have continued to monitor the page. —DangerousJXD (talk) 22:04, 10 June 2016 (UTC)
Picture Updates
Hello! I made the recent change to Paul Pierce's page so that I could catch someone online who knew what they were doing. As you know, a lot of the main pictures on Wiki are outdated (Like Paul Pierce on the wizards or Kevin Garnett on the Celtics). How could I go about updated these in the correct way. I am definitely willing to do the work to update those pictures. People should be able to find the players current team from the first picture provided. Many recently traded players are do NOT have updated pictures. If you could inform me on how to use pictures from the internet that I could then upload into the main picture slot, that would be awesome.
Thanks --RichieConant34 (talk) 22:25, 17 June 2016 (UTC)
- Hello, RichieConant34! I have basic knowledge of this so I suggest posting over at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject National Basketball Association. To put it in a simple phrase, if you want an image of say Kawhi Leonard in a Spurs uniform, you have to take it yourself or find an image where somebody has taken it themself. Virtually all images of basketball players and other personnel have been taken by somebody who went to a game with a camera. You'll get more information from other users shall you need it at the link I provided above. —DangerousJXD (talk) 22:34, 17 June 2016 (UTC)

Still don't get the punctuation guidelines
Sorry if I made some mistakes. I had been told by another editor that the way I was doing it was correct. I still don't really understand the guideline and I think it looks weird from the link you gave but I'll trust you know what you're doing when you're removing all my edits. Could you explain what is the correct way of doing it?*Treker (talk) 01:12, 1 July 2016 (UTC)
- *Treker, I have explained this to several users already so forgive me for not being up to giving a thorough explaination now. The post I left at your talk page is really all there is to it. WP:MOSLQ is the relevant guideline, Wikipedia uses logical punctuation, putting punctuation outside quotation marks when the quote is a sentence fragment is logical punctuation, and that's it. If you want more information, I have a paragraph on my user page about this which is more conclusive; search for the word "punctuation". The paragraph was directed at a sock/troll so that's why it sounds like it's talking to an individual. This is a common mistake people make, hence why somebody may have told you the opposite of what I'm saying. Non-logical punctuation itself isn't wrong (I myself strongly disagree but I know it's an accepted method of punctuation, just like those in the other boat) but its use on Wikipedia is. I wasn't trying to be "smug" by the way. —DangerousJXD (talk) 05:32, 1 July 2016 (UTC)
- I'm sorry about calling you smug. It was a misunderstanding on my part since I didn't know what Logical punctuation was so I thought you were telling me I was being stupid by being unlogical or something. I reacted to fast and didn't think things trought. I'm sorry, it was immature of me.*Treker (talk) 13:36, 2 July 2016 (UTC)
- Don't sweat it. —DangerousJXD (talk) 22:34, 2 July 2016 (UTC)

Category:Television episodes pulled from general rotation
No idea; I assume it's just some bored kid. Trivialist (talk) 00:27, 2 August 2016 (UTC)
- (Note.) Safe bet. I'll continue to handle this as I have been doing. —DangerousJXD (talk) 03:27, 2 August 2016 (UTC)
