Slowpoke article

Ummm, dude, what are you trying to do? You keep editing back and forth, adding and deleting the same sentence... --ElectAbuzzzz 15:31, 19 July 2007 (UTC)

Response: Well I keep adding that sentence in the wrong place.--Golbat 15:36, 19 July 2007 (UTC)

Your edits seem to sometimes change foreign characters into question marks. Do you know why this is happening? If so, is there any way you can prevent it from happening...? --Pie ~ 03:59, 28 July 2007 (UTC)

Response: Uhhh... What?

Do you see here, how you changed the Japanese characters of Nurse Joy's voice actors into question marks? That's not the only time you've done that. --Pie ~ 17:35, 29 July 2007 (UTC)

Response: Well I don't mean to do it.

It's probably because you don't have data for Japanese characters installed on your computer, hmm. -Happy Mask Man 20:19, 29 July 2007 (UTC)

The problem is that it happens only in certain instances, and not to all the characters in an article, it seems. Plus, even if his system didn't display the characters, it shouldn't replace them, I think... not unless he's copying and pasting text into another program which doesn't support the characters. That's how we get a lot of those damn "smart" quotes into our articles: people editing in Word, which automatically changes them... but that's why I asked if he knew why it was happening. --Pie ~ 21:13, 29 July 2007 (UTC)

Response: ??????

Response: How do you tpye those letters like pie did?

If you mean the Japanese characters, your computer has to have support for them. What operating system is your computer running? -Happy Mask Man 20:28, 29 July 2007 (UTC)

Response: Yeah I got a response, uh, what???

You know, like Windows XP and Mac OS... -Happy Mask Man 20:36, 29 July 2007 (UTC)

Response: OHHHH that jazz well I run on windows ME.
