Website Updates

31/03/2008 - Wiki Removal Douch

It seems like some douch bag over at Wiki is removing my site from all the pages about Akira as he deems the site inappropriate. Some turd of a man who actually doesn't understand the guidelines he so often points people towards, who has nothing better to do with his time other than take a grudge out on the site. The clue? the fact that BlueBladeAkira remains in the links section to the Akira (Manga) page and Akira2019 was removed, strange methinks. If one is relevant, then the other is also. Here's what the dick left me on my talk page, my reply is after.

Akira (film)

"Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did in Akira (film). Wikipedia is not a mere directory of links nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Inappropriate links include (but are not limited to) links to personal web sites, links to web sites with which you are affiliated, and links that exist to attract visitors to a web site or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam policies for further explanations of links that are considered appropriate. If you feel the link should be added to the article, then please discuss it on the article's talk page rather than re-adding it. See the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you. -- ReyBrujo (talk) 11:21, 31 March 2008 (UTC)"

- I just love how he says "please do not ADD inappropriate links to Wikipedia" - like I've just come along and added it, no, I was there first, the link has been there for years, he removed it, does he have alzheimer's or something? Would you all say this is a pretty appropriate site to link on a Wki page about Akira? I certainly would. I don't get how some people just think they have more right over others when it comes to Wiki, he's just some loser sat at home, much like me really, who has no right to be bossing people about or thinking he knows what's right when he clearly doesn't. You know what, the link was already there, so maybe he should have discussed why it should be removed on the talk page instead of just removing it. Practice what you preach mate.

Akira External Links

"Can you please explain to me how BlueBladeAkira remains in the Akira (Manga) page and how Akira2019.com was removed? You was the last to edit it and it seems you removed one and not the other. It seems like you are taking an over zealous approach to what links can and can't be included based on your personal opinion. I've read the guidelines and still see akira2019.com as the most relevant link there is to any article about Akira. Seems like nothing more than a grudge against the site. Just explain how RottenTomatoes and BlueBladeAkira are deemed relevant and Akira2019.com isn't? as per these articles -

You seem to have zoned in on one singular part of the links to be avoided article, mainly this part 4. Links mainly intended to promote a website. I think you are missing the point of this rule, the 'MAINLY INTENDED' part. if I was only 'mainly intending' to promote a site I would have linked any old irrelevant site, but instead I am linking a massive Akira resource, in fact, the largest on the web. The site has also been part of the links section along with BlueBladeAkira since Feb 2006 when I was editing the page back then. I didn't realise someone would come along with a skewed perspective on what constitutes official and relevant, and what is allowed to be apart of Wiki. in fact I often remove irrelevant links myself, such as Otomo's Freedom project link from the Akira (Manga) page because this is an irrelevant link, Akira2019.com on the other hand isn't. I've already spent too much time thinking about this, do as you wish, a better man walks away in the right. --Damn-Deal-Done (talk) 12:04, 31 March 2008 (UTC)"

I left this on the Akira (Film) talk page.

External Links

""If the link is to a relevant and informative site" - Akira2019.com has been linked since feb 2006, added by me and has remained there for a long time. It is one of the, if not the most relevant site about Akira and therefore, for this wiki. Someone also mentioned only "official sites please" when removing Akira2019.com from the links. Well I wouldn't exactly call Rotten Tomatoes site official, it's a tiny review, how is that more relevant than a site that is aimed at every facet of Akira. What makes a site "official"? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Damn-Deal-Done (talk • contribs) 11:29, 31 March 2008 (UTC)"

- Well I've had my rant. People like him really get my feckles up. Just another crashing boar ready to tell people NO! at every step because it makes him feel big and important - editing a open source he had no part in creating, I hope he gets piles or worse, fuck him. Crashing boar, dick, motherfucker, If I was Jack Black I would give you such a karate chop to the neck, eat shit. :)

27/03/2008 - 23:09:09 GMT - New Site Design Live

Wow, what an update. That's right, you can probably see for yourselves that the site has had a facelift. These updates have been down to the news of an upcoming Akira Live Action Film which has inspired me to get this site up to shape again.

I won't blab on about all the new features, I will let you discover them on your own, but lots has changed. A few new pages have been added and many cleaned up.

In the days after this update there will be a few smaller updates as I get everything finished and weed out any mistakes.

Hope you like it.

18/03/2008 - New Contact Form

Yes, it's an update. It's only been two years but I've now added a new contact page to the site, this time with a form. Hopefully this should stop all the spam I receive.

I think soon I will give this site a makeover like I've been wanting to do for a while now, some of it just seems a little crappy to me now. Maybe soon.

30/04/2006 - Happy Birthday Akira2019

Akira2019.com is now one year old, it almost happened without me noticing. Man what a crappy year I've had, let's hope the next one is better.

What can we expect with this new year? well most of what I've been meaning to do, content, content and more content. Plus many new and improved optimisations to get this site kicking some ass. Well until then, bye xx

19/01/2006 - Happy New Year

Happy new year from Akira2019.com

What do I have planned for this year then, well I would like to get this site pretty much complete. Still loads to do such as the image pages and characters page which are next on the agenda as well as more tidying and optimisation.

You might have noticed that I have removed the main reviews and articles pages, I figured I wouldn't give these things a section but instead keep them linked from pages deep within the site. They will still be listed on the side menu of the home page though.

I have also figured how to get this site a good G00000GLE rank because basically I don't have one yet. I put the plan into effect today so hopefully we will start to see my ranking go up and traffic to the site improve considerably.

20/11/2005 - Manga Page Up

I have added a page in the info section on the Akira Manga, not much really but at least it's something. This site still has lots of work to be done which I am getting around to very slowly.

I understood what you meant Laura about this front page having no purpose and useless info, so I have put a brief synopsis here instead of the stuff I had before, hope you like it better now. I still miss you so much because you are my life. xxx

20/11/2005 - Hot Linking Scum Balls

I have so far caught two sites hot-linking images from AKIRA2019.com. Those lucky sites all had a nasty surprise awaiting their next visitors. I must warn you that I do not take kindly to bandwidth theft and will do everything in my power to see that you leeches don't do it again. If you want an image please save it to your own site. Thank you... The WEB-GOD.

10/07/2005 - Good News For Me

I have been accepted to be the editor of the Akira section at DMOZ - the open directory project. All it involves is accepting and editing submissions to the directory. I rule!

No big changes to this site yet just a new article on the Medicom 12" Limited Akira Action Figures those toys kick ass.

I have also optimised the title of each page so G00000GLE will cache my site better and maybe increase my ranking which I am really getting killed at. The site is still not in the top 100 results for the word Akira, but hopefully as my content builds up so will my G00000GLE rank.

14/06/2005 - Two & Half Months Old

This site is roughly two and a half months old and continuing to fill up at a steady rate.

New pages include a Katsuhiro Otomo page, Domu page, temporary akira synopsis of the film and just added is a great article about Steve Oliff and Olyoptics who revolutionised how comic books are coloured, and it only happened to be Akira that they did this on.

I have also added a new download, the Akira FAQ by Taro Rehl. You must read this as it is very clever.

What can you expect? well I am working on my characters page which will give a detailed explanation of each characters involvement in the plot. I will also add some wallpapers ready for downloading including an original AKIRA 2019 wallpaper. Some general image optimisation's and tidying up.

This is a big site so please be patient in regards to content, best place to see the progress of content is the MAP, gray means content and white means no content, simple.

...oh yeah, I almost forgot about my lovely style switcher. Now you can customise the site to your preferred taste, the Comic or Film? it's your choice.

30/04/2005 - Online, Yippeeee!

The site has gone online even though it still remains over half empty. Expect it to fill up pretty quickly.

Online since 30/04/2005 - 21:27:33pm GMT.
