Short version (long version will be posted tomorrow; I have somewhere to be):

Editing
When you get to college and are studying Physics, let me know if you can find the time to edit for hours like you do now and keep your grades up, because I honestly can't. I've been hit with exams after exams for these past two months, presentations, essays, plus other real-life issues (yes, I actually have issues in real-life aside from college). I still find the time to do a few things here. I told you I was using my own break from studying just to talk to you about the issue with the categories. Believe it or not, we actually have a tool that can help with updating pages/templates. That said, I had not noticed it takes a considerable amount of time before templates are updated, so it's only been used for images thus far. This is an issue you could have brought to my attention.

Also, do note I used to edit just like you do. That was before I got to college. Difference is, I got to college, studying one of the most - if not the most - complicated scientific fields there is.

Stone miniature
I've explained the issue with this ad nauseam, and it has nothing to do with power-induced stupidity. It's about reliable confirmation. I honestly don't care what Derrick thinks of the wiki; his opinion of the wiki is worthless to me when the example he provided of a "good" wiki was one that consistently appeals to his ego.

For the record, in case Derrick reads this, I don't know you as a person, therefore I am incapable of disliking you. However, the way you presented your case made me reject the relevancy of your opinion.

Rook's Brother
Similar issue with Charmcaster. Charmcaster's name is Hope, but she always presented herself as Charmcaster. Even after we knew it was an alias, we had no more to go on than her alias. Rook Ben, on the other hand, had a designation; a placeholder "name" because he didn't have an actual name. It's that simple.

Rollbacking
Believe it or not, I actually took the time to check the pages before your edits. I was simply going to reorder the sections, but the articles appeared better before you removed the images. However, I had not noticed the images were low-quality, since they, like all images, were resized to fit in the articles without disrupting them.

Candidates for deletion
That category is on my "Following" list. I get a notification when it is added to articles and/or images. However, sometimes, for whatever reason, there's a long delay (think a day or more) between the time when the category is added and when I get the notification. When I finally see it (another delay that can last up to several hours - the time when the notification is sent and the time when I see it), Superbike10 has already deleted the relevant data. You can go complain to Wikia about that.

My knowledge of the MoS
I do not, cannot, and will not ever know the MoS by heart. In case you haven't noticed, it's enormous, covering everything I could think of in detail. When I created it, I covered every type of article on the wiki - or so I thought. I went through hundreds of articles, trying to find every type in existence. It took me a long time to draft that MoS, longer still to "work out the bugs", publish it, and fix any errors that might have occurred during its creation.

Promises
This is where I must apologize. Some things do escape my mind, but I did not and do not ignore your contributions or your requests. If you believe I forgot something (obviously you should give it some time before concluding this), you are free to remind me of it, and I'd thank you for it. I didn't tell you about the crossover simply because I honestly don't know what to do with it. It's a situation I had never foreseen and isn't covered by any existing guidelines (obviously, since it was unforeseen). My best suggestion, off the top of my head, is to create some kind of "Dubious canon" template, stating the crossover's canon status is unknown, and add an underline effect to links to it.

Power
Yes, I make mistakes. I routinely admit this fact. However, those things you mentioned aren't mistakes. Information was given, processed, and either considered reliable (verified) or unreliable (unverified). That's all. I did not voice my opinion on the stone miniature right away when I locked its page and made a highlighted thread regarding it, but I was of the opinion that it was Darkstar. You (and others) don't seem to grasp that I was not talking about what I believed, but what was verified beyond reasonable doubt. I could believe the moon was made of cheese and have Neil Armstrong himself say so, but it would still not be reliable, because the analysis of moon rocks and any basic telescope will show you it's not true.
