| I have a batch of incomplete minifigures. I need help identifying them to find
out what parts I need to complete them. I seem to remember there were a couple
of sites which had this information but I can't remember the names.
Can anyone help please?

Interesting, more than ten years and almost nobody noticed it.
(OK I understand we can see them only from the front as they never retreat when
they attack so you can't see their back  )
Interesting in our catalog torso is showed without long line.
According to the information which I found here
http://minifigs.nl/swminifigs/mfnl-shadow-ms.html
one with long line could be from magnet set from 2009.
* | | 852715 (Inv) Magnet Set, Minifigures SW (3) - Darth Vader, Snowtrooper, Shadow Trooper - with 2 x 4 Brick Bases blister pack
Gear: Magnet: Star Wars |
so from sets which were issued earlier 2007 and 2008 could be one with short
line
My with short line is from set
I have also two in my collection with long line but bought them years ago loose
without sets.
I submitted both as new as in this case sw0166 should be marked for deletion
as we don't know which one is currently sell under this entry.

Today I am very pleased to announce we have a new Catalog Associate! As you may
see from the Hall of Fame, StormChaser has previously held two catalog-type admin

returned to the site.
We're delighted he has decided to come back, and I know many of you missed
him as well. He has many ambitious plans for the catalog, and now that we have
more staff on board, it's looking as though we can start making some serious
headway.
So please join me in welcoming him. You can see his familiar profile in line

As far as I'm aware, yes. It is a bit annoying, but true.
Once the initial image is approved or discarded, then another image can be added.
However, I believe it is possible for multiple users to add multiple photos
for the same pending item.

Thanks for that, a bit odd, but not too big a deal.
I will just add the main photo for now and once the part is approved i will add
the other photo.
Great to have you back working on the Catalogue.

I just added 2 photos of a new part that i added to the catalogue, one a rendered

photo i added and the other has disappeared.

But...but...under "BrickLink Staff & Volunteer Administrators", it says that
StormChaser has only been a catalog admin for less than a day! Sheesh! A person
in such a responsible position should have more experience than say, 12 hours.

You sound like at this point you're willing to give up BrickLink's independence
for the opportunity to be ruled by the LEGO Group.
And yet in another message you don't seem to be fond of the idea of losing
BrickLink's ability to make independent decisions:

now believe that every word they say is gospel and not to be questioned?
Look, I understand disagreeing with decisions. And clearly you disagree with
this decision. But I encourage you to retain your rationality.

There are two aspects to be considered in this color business: 1) useful and
meaningful choice of color names, and 2) consistency between different platforms
(which makes life easier for everybody, buyers and sellers).
I do not care as much for 1) as I do care for 2). The recent change has removed
some discrepancies between Lego.com and BL, but I am not sure what other platforms
will be doing. One should simply settle for any standard naming set (and I seriously
do not care which one it is) and then use it consistently on all platforms.
For obvious reasons TLG will not change their current color names. We are talking
about a company which operates on a global level and has production streams that
are distributed all over the world. Just think what happens if some color names
are suddenly changed to any of these production streams. This is simply impossible.
It is important to face realities and think about what would be the best for
the majority of BL users (sellers and buyers alike) in the long term. BL is not
some backyard garage run website project any more, but part of a globally operating
company.
As someone nicely stated it already: TLG is the manufacturer and they decide
how their product is called as long as they can sell it.

It is hard for me to imagine that Lego would say, "No, don't use our color

Russell is a LEGO employee now, so would you like him to talk to himself?
Kidding aside, who exactly would you like him to discuss it with? BL reports
in under Julia, and Julia has been deferring to Russell on community-specific
decisions. The AFOLET also falls under Julia, but they are AFOL experts, not
BL historians. There isn't a single person establishing the vision for the
future (which is a whole different discussion topic).
I'm supportive of this change because its logical. I don't think BL
should change all names to match (imagine the chaos of green vs dark green).
I like the suggestion that TLG start using the more logical BL color names,
at least informally.

1. I think I know what pitz wants; I'll PM you a demo. But I'm 99.9%
sure the addition of the cookie business on BL's end broke that functionality.
2. I don't know how you'd implement it if you could get it to work, given
your interface uses the entire window. You'd have to make the buttons and
search fields very small to accommodate the iframe to hold the BL window. And
it would be impractical on a mobile device no matter what.

But I'll try to make this post the last thing I say about it. In a recent
response to a different post:
https://www.bricklink.com/message.asp?ID=1176109
Russell said:
"Many historic accounts, such as major contributors or Dan's own personal
account were intentionally untouched by the process."
So this means that someone at BrickLink made a determination based on subjective
criteria about who would be erased and who wouldn't.
All I'm saying is that an objective standard should have been (and still
could be) used: if a member ever contributed to the catalog/inventories, then
they should not be turned into a number.
Erasing contributor usernames is a breach of the promises made here (and in other
places):
https://www.bricklink.com/help.asp?helpID=2472
And beyond that, it is simply disrespectful.

Catan is very frustrating for me. The game usually ends very abruptly. Now
and then it is obvious a turn away, but in those case there is usually nothing
to be done. It is often difficult to even tell who is winning until it happens
and suddenly all of my plans are for nothing.

Another vote here for Azul and Wingspan. We also play a lot of Scythe, Terraforming
Mars, and Tapestry recently.
Carcassone, Agricola, and Belfort are my all time favorites. I can't play
Catan... dice don't like me.

Yah, Splendor is awesome. I love the "compactness" of the game, both in the amount
of "game parts" and in playing time. Azul is similarly compact, and also very
addictive.
We play Carcassonne with a friend. We are working through all the (official)
expansions (minus "The Catapult" - that one just doesn't fit). Haven't
played Catan for quite a while, never played Pandemic. If you haven't tried
Wingspan, give it a go. It is one of the most beautiful games out there.
Game on!

My first take.
Took a long time to load for me. I don't necessarily attribute that to whatever
code you have going on, but just saying.
Search for Yellow Head, Any Stud Type, keyword: scar. Returns zero results.
I believe this should return 38 results.
I believe this to be at least in part a flaw in original goatleg code.
Search for Black Torso, Blue Arms, no hand color selected. Returns zero results.
I believe this should return 8 results.
I believe this to be at least in part a flaw in original goatleg code.
With yellow hands also selected, returns 3 results. I believe this to be correct.
It appears that for any search all dropdown options must have an active selection
to function. I would suggest this is not the optimal solution as sometimes arms
or hands may be swapped on a torso. Also if you want to find all heads with glasses
irrespective of what stud type something has...then I don't think three searches
should be required to achieve that.
At narrow screen widths the wrap is malformed or something...button gets cut
off. Screen Grab attached.
Would be nice if the layout better adjusted to a narrow (phone) layout.
Good start, though.

I actually like your older version better but great job either way. But what
you have to figure out how to do is is to get it to stay at the top of the bricklink

I agree. But I will qualify that by saying that once you make some contribution
to the world, you may have to trade a little privacy for that. And BrickLink
has made no secret of the fact that contributions are credited to users. Everyone
should know the deal going in when they choose to contribute.
There is such a thing as later changing your mind and asking to be removed from
public/private records, but I don't believe that these contributors did so.

Maybe. This is the general consensus. I think it was more of a case of a poorly-researched
law and an over-reaction.

Yes, but companies and individuals have the ability to challenge unjust laws.

You know, sometimes you seem to misinterpret the stuff I put in the comics as
a personal point of view. That is not the case. The comics stuff is made to be
funny...well hopefully funny...not to be anything else.
If you want my personal point of view, it is that it is the individual in question
who should decide whether or not their sh*t is public. Not you. Not I.
Bricklink in this instance is presumably attempting to meet compliance with these
new privacy laws. I'm not debating the efficacy of the laws, or the aesthetics,
or morality or anything else, because it's irrelevant. The law is the law
and the affected bodies must be in compliance or in violation.
Given that there are a number of users X whom, presumably Bricklink cannot contact
to affirm their willingness to allow their sh*t to be displayed on the site,
BL likely doesn't have a choice but to anonymize them. Well, they have the
choice to be in violation of the law, but I assume that isn't the choice
that has been made.
Melville and Shakespeare are long dead. You can't cyberpunk them and steal
their identities. The cases with the anonymized users are likely unknown.
I don't necessarily disagree with your general sentiments. But your sentiments
are not the law. BL doesn't have to disagree with your sentiments either,
but not being in compliance with the law is a whole different deal.
Apples and oranges.
Now go ahead and point out where I'm wrong, and I'll make another comic
strip, and tomorrow will be another day.

Correction: perhaps the trend is not so recent. There was another time and place
in history when people were reduced to numbers by those in power.
Should I bring that up? No.
Is it in any way comparable to what BrickLink has done? No, there is no comparison.
I only mention it to illustrate the thought process that goes into disrespecting

No, from what I can tell by reading a summary of that law it would not be applicable
in this situation.
The following is not directed to you, but to several readers who really don't
seem to get it. I understand getting it and disagreeing, but some people really
aren't getting it.
So: there is a somewhat recent trend in society of erasing people from history.
A number of different reasons are used to justify this. In this instance, privacy
appears to have been the reason. Obviously I disagree with that trend.
BrickLink assigns each person a unique identifying number upon sign-up. This
is necessary for their database of members. Now it has reduced certain users
to that number, even though the vast majority (probably all) of them did not
request it.
I will present a couple of situations that may be somewhat analogous depending
on perspective.
Imagine a graveyard where the company that owns the graveyard has assigned each
gravesite a number. One day the company goes through and erases the name from
every headstone (or most of them) and replaces those names with the numbers they
have assigned to the plots. The reasons why they did so are irrelevant - it
should be obvious that this is not a wise decision on the part of the company.
Here's another: imagine that someone comes up with a numbering system for
authors and assigns every author throughout history a unique identifying number.
Then, one day, they have the power and ability to replace each author's
name with a number in all records kept by humans. So they do it.
And then we have Hamlet by Author_291763. Moby Dick by Author_9182772. 1984
by Author_3177634. I could continue, of course.
mfav makes the point that these contributors didn't contribute much and it
was a long time ago. He's saying that it therefore doesn't matter how
we treat them. Using the analogy above, then, if an author hasn't contributed
much to the collective human store of literature, then it's okay to erase
them. But Shakespeare, much as he desired anonymity, won't get it because
he contributed too much.
Of course, the logical response is that catalog contributions are not works of
art. That is fair, but they are still effort someone put forth with the understanding
and promise that they would receive perpetual credit for the volunteer work they
did. BrickLink has broken that promise and there is no way to justify that.
A username is not (and correct me if I'm wrong) PII.
It amazes me that I'm putting so much effort into explaining the effects
of erasing history. I think I may know the reason: nearly everyone alive today
grew up in cultures where everything is disposable. It is a logical extension
to see humans in the same way. I'm arguing against that way of looking at
the past. I'm arguing for treating people with the respect they deserve
and keeping promises. I'm arguing against erasure.

This is what happens when regulators (read government flunkies) pull their snouts
from the trough of public money long enough to do something. It becomes an unmitigated
RFU. The privacy and scrubbing laws exist for a reason, what some might view
as a good reason, but a reason none the less. It is easier to place the burden
on a few companies than to make all individuals behave like responsible citizens.
But I will say for this process - at the same time as scrubbing members, existing
members who have contributed should be contacted and requested to agree that,
as part of the process of contributing to the catalogue, such contributions are
acknowledged. Furthermore, members contributing, must sign a waiver allowing
BL Corp to keep using the contribution and BL's acknowledgement thereof,
for as long as the site persists. When a member closes his/her account, they
must be reminded of the waiver again and agree again as part of the process of
closing an account. Members who choose not to outlive the site, must make sure
that their wills make provision for the contributions to be acknowledged as long
as the site persists. BL must just learn to manage properly, is all. Members
must just learn to be responsible, is all.
The heartbreaking thing is that sans BL managing this, all catalogue contributions
will eventually be made by BLUSERs. So why bother at all? Just acknowledge all
contributions as by BLUSERs already or, alternatively, manage the process of
contributing and membership a bit better. You cannot do anything about the lot
who never thought to give BL their permission to outlive their usefulness, but
you can deal with the existing membership in a better manner.

A username is personnal information that helps identify someone.
An example of what privacy laws entail:
When you go to the “I lost my password” page on a website, you enter a username
or an email address (another username, associated to an email provider).
The website should NOT answer:
“Sorry, this username/email-address is unknown.”
nor
“Okay, we know you, a message has been sent.”
The website should answer something like:
“If we know about that email address, a message has been sent.”

You make a fine argument. And if we were all to agree with it, then this page
should be removed from BrickLink altogether (which you clearly support):
https://www.bricklink.com/catalogMembers.asp
But to answer your question, I'll give you one way in which it actually does
matter. Catalog and inventory administrators sometimes have to make judgments
about the reliability of information that members submit. Contributors build
a reputation based on the quality of work they've done in the past.
Looking back on past work done to know how reliable it should be considered,
it actually does mean something to be able to identify a user and not just see
that one the blusers did it.

Yeah, but if you truly believed that, then you would refer to all your employees
by a number. You would say things like, "Employee Number 3827, go assist Employees
Number 99234 and 439 with the task they're working on."
But you don't. Because people have names and you treat them like people,
not cogs in your machine.
At least I hope you do.

I think most people would agree with you - the trouble is the big things are
taking much longer than anyone really anticipated to get to grips with so people
wile away their time with minor things. Maybe, just maybe if we concentrated
on the big things to let the new owners know our feelings we could help move
this along - maybe not - large corporates rarely listen in depth to what we have
to say (at least in the past, anyway).

This was done wholesale for a large number of users at the same time and thus
was likely NOT based on privacy laws. The likelihood that hundreds of thousands
of users simultaneously requested that their information be removed is remarkably
low.
The Help Center states:
If you have done any of the following, then that information and your user
profile cannot be deleted but all other information attached to your user profile
will be deleted:
•Placed or received at least 1 order
•Changed your username or a profile was merged into your username
•Added at least 1 item to the catalog
•Added at least 1 image small or large to the catalog
•Added at least 1 inventory of an item to the catalog
•Added at least 1 relationship to the catalog
•Added at least 1 link to the links section
•Added at least 1 inventory change request to the catalog
•Added weight, dimensions or color code for at least 1 item in the catalog
•Are an inventories verifier and verified at least 1 inventory
•Sent any messages to other members through the contact form
•Posted a message in our discussion forum and it is still there
•Moved a discussion forum post and the message is still there
•Are currently or have been before banned from Chat
I assume BrickLink decided that sentence in bold meant that the username was
part of the information that should be removed.

the username is what I have a problem with. I don't see any reason whatsoever

Respectfully, Yeah, no. That happens, I’m going to have issues with two of you.
Andrsv, you want to take the two hours to write yourself your version based on
the instructions I’ve posted, then fine. Don doesn’t want that old version out
there and neither do I.
Also, be aware you may have maintenance issues with the code, and you’re probably
going to need to update regularly for colors.

He linked to my page from goatleg.no. What makes you think he don't want
someone to host it?
Why don't you want it out there? What's wrong?
Btw, I haven't used it myself, I just noticed people wanted it.
I may update it on request. Also I plan to put a tool there which combines duplicates
in your inventory. Currently I'm running a lot of self-made tools locally,
I needed a place to host it
I've bookmarked your instructions on how to create search function. It was
too long to read, so I didn't have time yesterday. Is it better than goatleg?

I'm sure people would be willing to pay a small fee to use it. I would.

I have my own copy of the mini-figure-outer site that I always found to be far
superior. Could not get used to a frame above (goatleg) unless I rotated my
monitor to portrait mode. I'm a tab person.
Nice part is with your own copy you can move things like the colors yellow and
light flesh to the top of the list under head colors. I also ripped out the
color headings and tweaked it to make it as fast as possible (for me anyway).

Wanna share?
I'll host it here http://avbricks.no/
