Okey-dokey, you now have my blessing to discuss discuss all you want.  ^__^

Very much agreement on AKA.  ^v^

Probably better to create a Proposed Height page later on in the Wiki's life.  

Reason is,... while some of those stats were assessed based on a double-blind sample set of drawings (e.g., using a 152cm ME-tan as a primer), the majority are either from my own (or Aurora's) characters, or were pulled from a particular orifice....  Ã,­Ã,¬vÃ,­Ã,¬

[SleepyD]

riiight, yeah you can keep that data to yourself. XD;

It's a good art reference, tho.

The question is, where should the "Also known as:" section be placed?
First, perhaps?

[C-Chan]

/Cchan likes first.  ^__^

[SleepyD]

yush, I shall implement that.

Just a note, this hasn't been finalized, so until we all agree that the infobox is the best it can be, it shall remain at 3.1-tan's page for testing purposes.

btw, is 3.1 tan known by any other name?

[CaptBrenden]

the goddess @.@

[Tsubashi]

Just add "align = whatever" into the first Class line

Duh! That makes more sense. Thanks C-chan.

And I changed both the date format to what SleepyD suggested, as well as the actual release date of 3.1-tan. Despite major differences between 3.0 and 3.1, it's more practical to assume she's still the same OS.

Sumi masen! I didn't realizes 3.1-tan represented both 3.0 and 3.1. Should have been obvious though, I've never seen a 3.0-tan...

Glad we've resolved the date format!

btw, is 3.1 tan known by any other name?

Other than what C-chan has already listed in the annex (and what CaptBrenden said, I suppose), I've never heard 3.1-tan called anything else... though it wouldn't be the first if I were wrong

[C-Chan]

Very cute link, btw.  ^__^
Tuesday -tans.... ^v^

...once I draw some more, I wonder if he wouldn't mind creating an article on Amiga-san.  ^__^

Just a note, this hasn't been finalized, so until we all agree that the infobox is the best it can be, it shall remain at 3.1-tan's page for testing purposes.

Agreed.  That sounds responsible.  ^___^

btw, is 3.1 tan known by any other name?

Aside from "3.1-sama" and "Goddess"?  ^v^

Hmmm,............................................ not really.  -v-'

the goddess @.@

Right on queue.... -v-

Duh! That makes more sense. Thanks C-chan.

You're welcome, and self-inflicted Duh's are outlawed, btw.  ^v^
The beauty of collaborative work is that we all allow one another to help eachother out.  ^___^

Sumi masen! I didn't realizes 3.1-tan represented both 3.0 and 3.1. Should have been obvious though, I've never seen a 3.0-tan...

The closest thing to an alternative release 3.x-tan is Aurora's 3.2-tan (the Chinese version).
Other than that, nope, no 3.0-tan.  ^^

And that's good, cause that way, especially in my second micro-OVA, I can depict Windows 3.0 as simply a younger, cute-as-a-button version of 3.11-sama.  ^___^

No DOSkitty yet, but certainly would make it obvious that she wants a cat.  ^v^

Glad we've resolved the date format!

SleepyD's suggestion makes perfect sense.  ^__^
Conversely, we could've just stuck with MMMM DD YYYY, but DD MMMM YYYY is rarely used so I'm all for trying something different.  ^.^

Other than what C-chan has already listed in the annex (and what CaptBrenden said, I suppose), I've never heard 3.1-tan called anything else... though it wouldn't be the first if I were wrong

If we had a bit more sway, we could probably market a new nickname for her.  ^^

But at this point, we're just reporting what's currently out there....  ^____^;

[SleepyD]

right then. ^^ Shall I leave it alone?


Ah, right, I'm not exactly sure where to put the Tuesday-tans link. It does, however explain the status of Vista pretty well, I think.  

Oh, I posted a link up there with links to other personifications:

I find Citrus-tans quite amusing. ^^

You mean her nickname?  Might as well,.. not sure if they'd get the reference to 3.1-sama.  -v-'

Ah, right, I'm not exactly sure where to put the Tuesday-tans link. It does, however explain the status of Vista pretty well, I think.

Given their emerging popularity, I'd venture to create a new section entitled "OS-tan Blogs".  You never know when another one might pop up.  ^__^

http://www.gijinka.org/blog/

See, there's another one!  ^v^

Oh dear GAWD, I thought I saw everything with Spiderman-tan.  ^^;

Lime-tan is cute, but I say Lime from 'Saber Marionette' predates her!  ^v^

[Tsubashi]

You're welcome, and self-inflicted Duh's are outlawed, btw. ^v^

Oh, oops! Didn't see that rule...

If we had a bit more sway, we could probably market a new nickname for her. ^^

We could probably could if we just put it on the wiki anyway seeing as our wiki has a better findability / comprehensive-ness than most any of the others (except for wikipedia)

Anyway, speaking of wikipedia, I created a Wikipe-tan page and avi (though not quite up to par with C-chan's). I decided to use the new "infobox" template, cause it look good, and I realized that we're probably going to need to adjust the "OS Represented" boxes for Non OS tans, and omit "Latest Stable Release." Right now the wikipe-tan page still says "OS represented."

Also, it seems we have duplicate pages:

http://ostan-collections.net/wiki/TrendMicro
and
http://ostan-collections.net/wiki/Trend_Micro

I recommend the first one for deletion, since it's not linked to

[C-Chan]

Your Wikipe-tan avi is actually very good, but given how similar it is to the one I made here (even using the same Wikipe image), you could've saved yourself the extra work.  ^^;

http://ostan-collections.net/post-13746.html#13746

But oh well, moving along.  -v-'

For the non-OS-tans, it would simply be a matter of creating another template with different wording.  I can probably try doing that later, since I have to learn how to create templates eventually.  ^^;

And I'll go ahead and get rid of TrendMicro then.  -v-

[Tsubashi]

Oh, well I feel sheepish -v-
I'll replace that eventually, I'm a little busy right now

it would simply be a matter of creating another template with different wording.

Right, I was just wondering if we were going to make a separate one for each category (e.g. App-tans, Game Console-tans, Hardware-tans, etc.) or make a general "Non-OS tans" Template

I award you 500 points for not bowing apologetically.  ^_~

In any case, now I'm really starting to wonder if perhaps we should agree to that framed 100x100 avatar style as being the standard.

That way, we can produce a really nice (and VERY colorful) page featuring all the avatars in one orderly tapestry.  ^___^

Right, I was just wondering if we were going to make a separate one for each category (e.g. App-tans, Game Console-tans, Hardware-tans, etc.) or make a general "Non-OS tans" Template

To that I say "why not?".  The more diversified we are, the more expansive and relevant our Wiki will become.  ^___^

I'm gonna go ahead and test run at least two new categories tonight and see how that goes.  ^^

Added after 30 minutes:

Oh BTW, I added you to the "Our Artists" list cause,...

A)  I was in it and am not an artist.  ^^

and

B)  I expanded the list to included collagers, which you undeniably are.  `v'

Also spruced it up a bit.  ^___^

http://ostan-collections.net/wiki/Our_Artists

Now I just have to ask NewYinzer if he remembers where this page is being linked from.  Otherwise, we have to make it more visible.  -v-

[Tsubashi]

I added you to the "Our Artists" list

I just noticed the update on the RSS and was about to come post objections on the grounds that I haven't drawn anything (I only looked at the page title).

I expanded the list to included collagers, which you undeniably are.

I suppose by technical definition, but comparatively, my small amount of work really doesn't qualify me to be put in the same category as all the others.

I was in it and am not an artist. ^^

Artist: (n) a person whose creative work shows sensitivity and imagination

Hmm... seems like you fit the description to me

[C-Chan]

Technically-speaking, I am a Numismatist that allots enough time -- and has enough creative will -- to forge things that look like drawings.  Not necessarily self-derogatory, as there's a certain sense of pride in knowing that my techniques are primarily self-taught.  I never formally trained in carpentry or agriculture either, but I've tried both through the same systematic means and am not that shabby at them in my opinion.  -v-

But as far as you being on the list, I'm glad you at least agree to be on the list as a collager.  ^__^

Otherwise, I would've said there weren't gonna be any Ifs, Ands or Buts about it.  ^v^

Fufufu.... ^.^

Anyway, as far as the standard wiki avatars go, I've redesigned the -kun pics to follow that same 100x100 standard format:




Added after 5 minutes:

I rather like the idea of this standard format, for the reasons mentioned earlier.  ^__^

However, while Tsubashi-san already has a template, some of you might want to create avi's of your own.  In which case, I'm making the template I use officially GNU.  ^.^

I've relabled the layers to be a little self-explanatory, but if you have any questions please drop me a line.  -v-

Enjoy!  ^v^

Added after 55 seconds:

Oh, and if you like, maybe I can add this to the Downloads section...  -v-
