Fraps[]

That is the software I mentioned in chat yes. If there is video tutorials showing how to do it then I would go ahead and grab the software. Sakaratte - Talk to the cat 16:02, June 4, 2017 (UTC)

Van Buren special encounters[]

Where did you get the information for these special encounters? I couldn't find it. Some links are also very vague and of not much use. I've also removed the links in your sandbox. If you could justify the links, I wouldn't make it more than an overview page, like the random encounters. Jspoel Speech Jspoel 22:43, June 5, 2017 (UTC)

Re: References.[]

Thank you for bringing my attention to this, that is very useful information :-) AllYourFavorites (talk) 14:32, June 10, 2017 (UTC)

Richie quotation[]

I know nothing about FO1 as a whole, but reading taht quote against the article I can't help but question if it were the Vault Dweller that said that and not Richie. Can you confirm for me? Sakaratte - Talk to the cat 18:00, June 10, 2017 (UTC)

It's all good, better to check than do something without knowing the facts. Thanks for getting back to me. Sakaratte - Talk to the cat 18:19, June 10, 2017 (UTC)

Correcting fixing my mistakes and improving my contributions[]

I sent this to you (and others) because i want to thank users that usually correct me and fix my mistakes, those mistakes and errors are mostly based on english language rules. Since my english language is self-thaugh and i never (ever) been to any place where english is spoken my english is far from perfect. i do (and will do) lots of english language mistakes and "typo", i try to improve, but, i know it will happen. thats why i value a lot of your corrections, fixes and such, i dont just "see them" i "look at them" trying to learn. and avoid repeating that error.

I hope that my contributions do weight more than my mistakes on the wiki. Thank you very much! --Holakc (talk) 20:47, June 19, 2017 (UTC)

Waking Cloud[]

It was something both me and Dakiatte missed when we did the quotation run. I've been back through his contributions and there were just over a dozen errors, which I've now fixed. Sakaratte - Talk to the catmin 13:24, June 25, 2017 (UTC)

Floater[]

Its all good, the way the image sections work is they look for the image to hit either maximum height or width before stopping. 30px was very small so I took the max size limit off to see how it appeared. I don't think the difference is that much, maybe twice the size of what it was before. Sakaratte - Talk to the catmin 18:13, June 25, 2017 (UTC)

Piper Wright[]

I've locked the article down now so there isn't the back and forth edit warring. I don't think this going to go away, so do you mind putting your thoughts on the talk page? I'm at work right now so I'll put mine in later Sakaratte - Talk to the catmin 14:40, July 13, 2017 (UTC)

No worries, you and Lone were doing what you needed to uphold the rules. You mentioned pings in your first message. Was I showing in chat? Sakaratte - Talk to the catmin 17:11, July 13, 2017 (UTC)

Fallout 2 characters overhaul[]

I've done an overhaul on the Fallout 2 characters page for Arroyo characters. Would you be interested in working on it? It's going to be a rather massive task, but on a major page like that a lot of service for the viewer and yourself once it's done. Jspoel Speech Jspoel 14:32, July 18, 2017 (UTC)

Yes, you put the yes template if the character is a doctor, merchant or repairman. Jspoel Speech Jspoel 21:34, July 19, 2017 (UTC)

Farenheit[]

Technically you got involved in an edit war, but if anything you were assuming good faith in part of a patroller. If it's clear cut vandalism then going with a patroller's actions is fine, when there might be a reason for it going back and forth it's sometimes best not to get involved and flag an admin.

P.s. did you know gamepedia is actually built from this wiki as it was a few years ago? There are quite a lot of articles that will be identical or near identical with the older games. Sakaratte - Talk to the catmin 17:52, July 26, 2017 (UTC)

25,000th article page![]

Congratulations! You just created the wiki's 25,000th page, Olympia! A milestone to remember. It should be noted in a special blog I think, you feel up to it? Jspoel Speech Jspoel 16:54, August 1, 2017 (UTC)

Most important thing is that it's created in itself. I have a nice little reference for you I remember from the past, a forum about the wiki's 10,000th page. Jspoel Speech Jspoel 17:11, August 1, 2017 (UTC)
That was exactly the day Fallout: New Vegas was released in Europe I see now. Jspoel Speech Jspoel 17:13, August 1, 2017 (UTC)
It's a bit too short. You can also mention the 10,000th page was made almost 7 years ago, so we created about 2,200 pages a year since then. And we have 52,567 images, which is a little over 2 image per page. Jspoel Speech Jspoel 18:13, August 1, 2017 (UTC)
I adjusted it a little (links to the vault should be avoided) and added an image. You can create that blog now. Jspoel Speech Jspoel 18:49, August 1, 2017 (UTC)

Marked as patrolled[]

If you look at Recent changes you'll see edits with a, ! next to them. hitting mark as patrolled clears that indicator. Sorry I was a little AFK in chat when you asked. Sakaratte - Talk to the catmin 14:09, August 19, 2017 (UTC)


Sandbox[]

Hey, sorry Numbers. I was creating the Durable Dunn page and forgot to remove the categories after I created the page. The Courier NCR for life (talk) 18:58, August 24, 2017 (UTC)

Van Buren[]

Just spotted this article has a section needed tag on it. Mind taking a look to see if there is anything to go in there or remove the section for me? My Van Buren is poor as hell. Sakaratte - Talk to the catmin 22:55, August 24, 2017 (UTC)

UK article[]

That was a quote from Emil. I didn't put it in, someone else just undid it, it was there before. The Courier NCR for life (talk) 12:43, August 25, 2017 (UTC)

Did you know[]

If the templates not locked then feel free to do it, I trust you not to break anything. If you're struggling let me know and I'll pick it up after work. Sakaratte - Talk to the catmin 14:08, August 31, 2017 (UTC)

That's it done. Nothings broke because all I had to do was change a link without altering anything else. Thank you. 123123abcabc (talk) 14:23, August 31, 2017 (UTC)

Video Negotiated Settlement[]

Thank you very much for your vote on the petition. We have had talks with Wikia/Fandom, and a settlement has been proposed. I encourage you to review it and have your say here. Agent c (talk) 20:38, September 8, 2017 (UTC)

Console commands[]

Just had a quick look and the code change wasn't vandalism, its just the HTML codes for the characters. Sakaratte - Talk to the catmin 12:06, September 10, 2017 (UTC)

Video Forums[]

Thank you for participating in the video forums so far.

In order to work out where to go from here, I've created another forum asking the community where our "Red line" is, and whether or not I should continue to be the point person on this.

You can find the new forum here. I look forward to seeing your thoughts on this matter. Agent c (talk) 16:13, September 10, 2017 (UTC)

Hello, this is just a quick message to let you know a fourth question has been added based on the current feedback, especially from those who voted for removing the videos. Sakaratte - Talk to the catmin 19:51, September 10, 2017 (UTC)

All Hands Meeting[]

Okay, I think its clear that going ahead with a meeting is a good idea. At this stage I would like to open the floor to agenda items. We have the following things to discuss.

  • An update on any negotiations, and other actions
  • Possible action to progress our case further whilst staying on network
  • Possible engagement with Wikia on video in line with the proposed deal- if we should participate and whom that contact person should be.
  • Possible alternatives if the situation cannot be resolved.

Please let me know if you want anything added to the agenda here

I'll be asking a number of people to speak on certain issues, but as always there will be plenty of room for discussion.

I propose that the meeting be held at 3pm North American Eastern Time on Sunday 24 September, this should be 8pm in London, 9pm Central European time, and Midday North American Western. If there are any objections please note them below and we'll look into alternative scheduling, the more objections the harder we look for a new time.

We have arranged facilities for the meeting, it will be held online. It is open to all persons who have participated in any of the video discussion threads up to today, except those employed by Fandom/Wikia inc (as this is the Community's meeting), or have been employed by them in the recent past.

Votes taken in this meeting will be taken as consensus view of the wiki, so everyone is encouraged to attend.

We have setup a discord server (Nukapedia's Fallout Shelter) located here. It is mobile friendly (via an app) and is very flexible.

Although everyone is welcome in our social space (The-Common-Room), only persons who meet the above criteria will be admitted to The-Town-Hall (where the meeting will be located). You may be asked to verify your account before this access is granted. Agent c (talk) 21:53, September 11, 2017 (UTC)

Discussions[]

Hey numbers, with what's happened in Vegas today, two of our DM's are out of commission for the next day. I've granted you temporary DM rights to help cover the boards. Sakaratte - Talk to the catmin 12:53, October 2, 2017 (UTC)

Don't worry about being a bit late. Any bit of help that you can give is appreciated. Did you enjoy fixing the categories instead of having to grab someone? Sakaratte - Talk to the catmin 18:41, October 2, 2017 (UTC)

Patroller to Content Moderator[]

Hello, can you cast your eye over this forum and give your input? Sakaratte - Talk to the catmin 21:16, October 7, 2017 (UTC)

Projects[]

If that is all that is needed for those ones, then it might be worth getting a few patrollers and admins to do the peer reviews and sign them off, lay them to rest in the completed projects list. As for VB, are you looking to pick that back up yourself or are you shoot for us to move it to inactive and review at a later date? Sakaratte - Talk to the catmin 09:40, October 19, 2017 (UTC)

If you want to, feel free to give the peer review and mark it off. As long as the same person who did the revision isn't the one doing the review that's all that really matters Sakaratte - Talk to the catmin 11:48, October 19, 2017 (UTC)

Content Mod vote[]

I've just added an update to the forum. Mind looking back as it may affect your voting decision. Sakaratte - Talk to the catmin 00:04, November 12, 2017 (UTC)

Valentine's Day[]

In this revision you un-capitalised "Valentine's Day" to "Valentine's day". As far as I can find on Google, the "D" in "Day" should be capitalised. Or is it spelt with a small "d" in-game? I don't have the game so I can't check.
- FDekker talk 20:29, December 1, 2017 (UTC)

Crisp[]

Hey, I just got off work, and when I read your message I was really confused because I was looking at it and the time stamps and I'm thinking wtf. But I remember now. When I saw the page and made my edit, for whatever reason it only showed the Anon edit, not yours. So when I saw the page it just showed what the Anon put, which had a Red link, and I thought ok I'll just fix the link which is all I did when I hit submit. Not exactly sure what happened with the timestamps though, or why it didn't show your edit. But I've gone back and removed them. Xa3 (talk) 04:55, January 27, 2018 (UTC)

Character affinity[]

Apologies for the generic message.

This forum was raised almost a week ago to tweak article guidelines so we could get companion reactions added into the layout guidelines with the hope of achieving a consensus rather than a vote. Can you take 5 minutes to cast your eye over and give your input? Sakaratte - Talk to the catmin 14:36, May 12, 2018 (UTC)

Notable content[]

Hello, one of the requests that was made quite a while ago, was a review of the notable content template, to make it clearer there is hidden content. A new draft has now been created and is fully functional. Can you swing by, take a look and give you input as to suitability/changes? Sakaratte - Talk to the catmin 11:38, May 23, 2018 (UTC)

Nukapedia and Fandom/Wikia talks[]

Hi,

Apologies for the impersonal nature of this message, as I'm relaying the same thing to admins and people who have previously expressed a view on featured video. Forgive me if I tell you some things you already know.

We have a call scheduled with Wikia this Friday. We need your input - and the input from as many others as possible. We're hoping to settle once and for all what our relationship is, if it can be salvaged, and what the future should be, as until we settle these featured video can't be settled.

Please, have a look at this forum and tell us what you think.

In addition to looking at our own future hosting option, we've also been in talks with other hosts. Included in these is Gamepedia/Curse. We have an ongoing dialogue with them, and if you have any questions about a possible unification to the vault, please do let me know and I'll relay any similar response we've had, and if your question is a first, I'll ask the question.

Thanks again. Remember, War never changes. Agent c (talk) 21:05, July 2, 2018 (UTC)

So[]

Heard you were asking about me a few months ago. How you doing? Sakaratte - Talk to the catmin 16:16, July 13, 2019 (UTC)

Mom's Diner[]

Nice image added to the Mom's Diner page. Can you make it a bit larger? 240px by 180px or so. Preferably taken by daylight. Jspoel Speech Jspoel 19:41, August 5, 2019 (UTC)

Yes. Thanks! Jspoel Speech Jspoel 19:59, August 5, 2019 (UTC)
At what circumstances does she go out of business? Can you add that to the page? Jspoel Speech Jspoel 20:02, August 5, 2019 (UTC)
Can you make Tubby's out of busines picture a bit larger? About 240 by 180px Jspoel Speech Jspoel 20:33, August 5, 2019 (UTC)
Ok. Is good. I was thinking of a little project for you. Find all shops that can go out of business in Fallout and Fallout 2 and make a picture of their out of business sign. Jspoel Speech Jspoel 20:41, August 5, 2019 (UTC)

( Ok, thanks, sooner ready than expected. Jspoel Speech Jspoel 20:03, August 6, 2019 (UTC)

Gauss rifle[]

No, I wouldn't want them on the pages. If we add that one, we could put all images from the guide on the wiki. Also poor quality and copyright issues. Jspoel Speech Jspoel 20:22, September 12, 2019 (UTC)

Hello[]

Hello DogeNumbers, it certainly has been quite a while! Yes, much did happen after you faded away, there was a whole bunch of drama between different parts of the wiki, and I foolishly thought I'd become Bureaucrat and fix all the issues. Needless to say, it took a toll on me, and I resigned months later. I realized the Wiki was not doing me any good anymore, and I did not enjoy it. Since then I have found other things to fill my time and that make me happy.

I am really happy to see you are doing well, I have thought of you a few times, wondering where you went, always hoping things were going fine for you. I definitely enjoyed being on the wiki with you back in the day, you are an interesting fellow.

The pandemic definitely sucks, mostly because I can't party in the last year of school before university, but also because people are getting sick :P

I'll definitely give Saka and Cassie your regards, unless you want to talk to Cassie in person, she still frequents the Discord server. --DisgustingWastelander (talk) 21:48, April 25, 2020 (UTC)

Indeed, all exams have been cancelled, of which I was supposed to have 4 written exams and 1 oral, so I am very, very happy that I don't have too. I used to a go to a gym weekly before all this, now I fear I might have lost some of the gains I have been working to get because I haven't lifted a weight in two months, but eh whatever. Happy to talk more on Discord tomorrow if you want. --DisgustingWastelander (talk) 22:07, April 25, 2020 (UTC)
