I have pseudo-epiphanies all the time ;) But now my computer is back I'll be able to get back to work, including the Bleak House page. Would that, in your opinion, be an appropriate page under the criteria of the history project? --Skire (talk) 02:14, May 30, 2013 (UTC)

I would certainly agree, especially in the sense that it just meets the criteria. Much like the Wright Flyer, the history pages aren't just limited to historical figures. That chalkboard says it all. While it may be less significant than certain others it still qualifies, in my opinion. Let's go ahead with this one. --Skire (talk) 02:38, May 30, 2013 (UTC)
I think they're great. It's always good to shed light on the obscure (I never heard of these until now.) And I'll try to get started on the page in a sandbox by tomorrow, if time permits. --Skire (talk) 02:49, May 30, 2013 (UTC)

Pristine Treatment[]

Thanks a lot for pointing that out! I completely forgot about looking through the film treatment as an example of term usage. Thanks a lot, Ci. If you're interested, you can give my sandbox a read. I would love further feedback on any additions or revisions that need to be made before release. ForGaroux Some Assembly Required! 15:06, May 30, 2013 (UTC)

I believe I can agree with all of that. And haha, would you mind re-writing that section for me while I'm finishing up the rest? I wasn't sure how much to write for the film treatment, as there is such limited information involved there. ForGaroux Some Assembly Required! 16:17, May 30, 2013 (UTC)
Thanks a lot! And yes, any further help would be greatly appreciated. :) I'll have the refs added in a bit. ForGaroux Some Assembly Required! 17:32, May 30, 2013 (UTC)
Hmm... aside from the refs that need adding, there's really not that much to do until revive forum part II to determine who is a pure human or not. Further re-writes might be needed, if you see something not to your liking. I'll be giving the entire sandbox another combing through in a bit after I've had some lunch. Thank you again for your help. ForGaroux Some Assembly Required! 17:55, May 30, 2013 (UTC)

Re: What's new[]

You speak English better than I speak French, I can tell you that much. I've just been over at The Vault doing some maintenance on perk articles, nothing too glamourous. I've noticed you've been having "fun" with the Fallout film treatment. --Kastera (talk) 20:36, May 30, 2013 (UTC)

The main reason I became a teacher was so I could illustrate to at least a sliver of students that history isn't just a bunch of dates or people to memorize, but instead a tool that can help one analyze current situations and propose possible solutions to those situations. I also wanted to break the mold that all history teachers/professors stand at the front of the room and monotonously drone on and on and instead engage my students and hold legitimate conversations with them along with asking their opinions on events and people to keep them "in" the conversation. --Kastera (talk) 21:41, May 30, 2013 (UTC)
I'd sure like to think so. Most students at least tolerate me, but there are always those that are difficult to get through to no matter what, y'know? It makes the job a bit more challenge, but I just keep trying... --Kastera (talk) 22:03, May 30, 2013 (UTC)

Re:Vandal[]

Got him. I forgot for a second that you couldn't do it yourself. It's a shame! --Skire (talk) 00:47, June 1, 2013 (UTC)

I've taken a look and I think they're very well done. It's especially good that there are a large number of citations/references (that most other pages lack). There are a lot of red links but they should be taken care of in due time. And the Bleak House page will be on the book, since that is the one referenced on the chalkboard, but nevertheless the eponymous house itself can be talked about within the article. Perhaps you would be interested in making this one? (My schedule is a little tight ATM.) --Skire (talk) 01:35, June 1, 2013 (UTC)

Fallout film[]

Looks ok to me. I'm not too happy with all those red links (+40 or so compared to 2 weeks ago) but I trust you'll make pages of them all. You may want to consider adding small pages like probably water chip to the Water chip page with the {{Film}} / {{Film/End}} tag though. Jspoel Speech Jspoel 14:38, June 1, 2013 (UTC)

Line breaks[]

I was removing some idle line breaks made by Skire bot (enable show bots). I tried to make Skire aware of the error, but no response, so I started correcting some of my own. And I can assure you I did it by hand. Jspoel Speech Jspoel 23:59, June 2, 2013 (UTC)

Edits[]

My bot has been going around for the last hour removing project tags, but unfortunately it has been leaving behind an extraneous white line where the project tags used to be. I now have resumed the separate program that removes the extraneous white line (along with other minor fixes) to follow the removals. I had paused this second program because I wanted the first program (removing the tags) to move ahead, since the second program had (somehow) been catching up and surpassing the first. Jspoel knows of this white line issue from a previous conversation and I think he's been removing them after my bot removes the tags. I hope you can understand what's going on and it certainly isn't anything malicious. Like I said, the second program is going again now and should get all of the white spaces. --Skire (talk) 00:00, June 3, 2013 (UTC)

No problem. It's really my fault, I should have responded earlier. And I know you have a lot on your plate now with the film but can you still take on the Bleak House page? --Skire (talk) 00:26, June 3, 2013 (UTC)

Thanks regarding the Avatar pic[]

Thanks for the compliment sir. Credits go out to User:DragonBorn96 for being bored one day and making my fanfic character for me to pass the time. He sent me a few pictures as proof and my avatar picture was commissioned afterwards.

there is an error on the bleak house page. it mentions that the book is referenced on the classroom blackboard in vault 13 in fallout 3 when i think it should read vault 101 as vault 13 isn't in fallout 3.

Ghoul[]

Hey, thanks for the support. I know that there's a Ghoul page already but I think tactics needs it's own page. The ghouls in tactics are mostly just creatures to be killed for xp, so I think having a page that has the stats of the different variants is useful. There's at least ten different variants. Whilst the ghoul page seems to be basically an overview of the ghoul race, I'd like the tactics page to be just like any other creature article with all the variants and loot.

Chat[]

I had no idea who was involved, just that I was talking on Skype, and it was pointed out to me that I was brought up when objectifying women was being discussed. Didn't even realize you were involved until Mel and I were talking and she was asking who had brought it up. I just thought it weird that a comment of mine would even be referred to, and I thought it was funny that it was brought up by men; not any actual women that I talk to. Sort of reminded me of how it's usually white people who get offended over the N-word, when most black people don't even care. xD ForGaroux Some Assembly Required! 16:03, June 10, 2013 (UTC)

To be honest, it's not like I was insulted. I thought the whole ordeal was pretty hilarious myself. :P But if it was all said in satirical fashion, then I won't keep blubbering on about it any further.

Hmm. I know what you mean, but I've never really encountered any issues personally. With my dad being an airforce military brat, I've traveled all across the States, and I don't think any of the black friends that I've made has ever given a shite that I use the N-word. Can't really say how it's received elsewhere across the world, as the majority of my travels has only taken me across Scandinavia and their close neighbors. ForGaroux Some Assembly Required! 16:51, June 10, 2013 (UTC)

In response to that, I'd refer you to this forum. A figure of speech is just that - a figure of speech. Nothing less, nothing more. You'll never actually see me making fun of rape, or advocating it. ForGaroux Some Assembly Required! 17:46, June 10, 2013 (UTC)
By observer, I mean someone who has had family members and etc. raped. I didn't mean that as in someone was literally there watching the entire deal. Anyways, you are correct in that I would stand behind you. Like I said, I do not make fun of rape, nor do I necessarily condone it. (Although, as a Nihilist, I don't make personal declarations of what is right and wrong.) If you'll notice, I only ever use the word whenever talking about objects, not people or animals. ForGaroux Some Assembly Required! 19:05, June 10, 2013 (UTC)
Ahhh, that's a more private discussion of my own personal beliefs that we would have to have away from prying eyes, you understand. Don't think of me too harshly by saying that, but Nihilism doesn't recognize the black/white jurisdiction very well. As for the rest, I'm certainly not going to argue with you about that. It's a touchy subject that I don't like to get into outside of professional debates. ForGaroux Some Assembly Required! 19:20, June 10, 2013 (UTC)
Well, if it was just you and I talking, I'd have no problem with that. I'm sure we'd keep it professional. But let's not kid ourselves that others wouldn't jump in. :P As for Nihilism, I wouldn't make judgment calls quite yet. I'm not one of those emo Existantialist Nihilists who think there's no point to living. As for our friendship, I hope the sake of it wouldn't ever be put up. I'm not necessarily here to make friends, but I do enjoy the friends I have made, and I never hold grudges just because of dumb arguments. Life is too short for that shit.

Audio Needed[]

Hey Guardian. Glad you're adding those maintenance tags for the audio files - as the maintenance tags are really quite useful to know what needs work, yet aren't used all that much - but I'd just like to leave you a heads up that it's best to always place them into the most specific categories. By this I mean instead of just Category:Audio needed you place them into ones such as Category:Audio needed (Fallout), Category:Audio needed (Fallout 2) and so forth. You can do this in the maintenance tags themselves by just placing a bar then input the game abbrevations such as {Audio needed|FNV}. Once again good work, and I'm really happy to see your activity increasing and increasing. Yours Always; --The Old World Relics (talk/blog/contributions) 00:16, June 18, 2013 (UTC)

When you add an audio file tag, you should remove the Notable Quotes Audio Project tag. No need to have two of the same. Also, a project tag precedes a file wanted tag. So first you would get the NQPT tag, then the audio file tag. While you're at it, you may also want to consider helping out uploading files. The less tags and the more audio files, the better it is for the wiki. Jspoel Speech Jspoel 15:31, June 18, 2013 (UTC)
I thought minor FO1/FO2 characters like Izo didn't have audio quotes? Only major characters with a tell-me-about have that, right? Jspoel Speech Jspoel 15:34, June 18, 2013 (UTC)
Seems all a bit overdone to me with all those tags. When you see that audio project tag, you know that a top quote audio file is meant to be placed as well... Jspoel Speech Jspoel 15:44, June 18, 2013 (UTC)

( You can let a bot do all that audio file tag work, you know. At least for FO3 and FNV pages. Jspoel Speech Jspoel 18:50, June 18, 2013 (UTC)

Audio needed template[]

Hey Ci! I was curious: doesn't that template kind of make Notable Quotes Audio Project superfluous? And do you need bot assistance in adding those tags? (Make sure they're at the very top of the page, since they are maintenance tags.) I was just wondering because it seems like most project tags nowadays have been added for little to no real reason... --Skire (talk) 20:09, June 19, 2013 (UTC)

No problem. But we have actual policy that dictates where things go at the top of pages, and that's what we should follow... --Skire (talk) 21:42, June 19, 2013 (UTC)
Now that I look at it, it is indeed quite odd, and suffice to say it bothers me a bit now too! I guess I've always treated "The Wastes" as both capitalised (kinda like The Hague), with "of" being de-capitalised because it is not significant. Hopefully that's somewhat of an explanation... I can write it however way it bothers you least, no problem. --Skire (talk) 22:46, June 19, 2013 (UTC)

Re talking about the Relics. Was wondering if maybe a series on SIGINT (Signals Inteligence) might be a good way to go.

I'm pretty sure when we went to mediawiki 1.9 that it broke the gadgets. I don't know if any of them are working. I'd already had it on the (long term) to do list. I'll mess with justified text to see what's up since I made it, therefore I'm more familiar with it. The Gunny  380px-USMC-E7 svg 19:22, July 8, 2013 (UTC)

Rollbacks[]

I'd appreciate it if you'd stop rollbacking my edits for no legitimate reason and/or without warning. Enclavesymbol 08:30, July 10, 2013 (UTC)

I apologize for jumping the gun, I just assumed since you were the most recent additions in the edit history when I noticed my additions were missing before the transcriber guy edited.
No hard feelings I hope. Enclavesymbol 18:42, July 10, 2013 (UTC)

Stuff[]

Hey Ci. How's it going? I thought you might be interested in seeing this edit. It's just something I caught the other day... Also, I'm still waiting for you to get those rights back ;) --Skire (talk) 22:58, July 22, 2013 (UTC)

Need your thoughts on something[]

How about an American Civil War page? --Skire (talk) 16:55, August 30, 2013 (UTC)

Perhaps one thing... What do you think would be a good image for the infobox? We can include the draft poster in the gallery but I don't think it's much for a main image. --Skire (talk) 16:38, September 5, 2013 (UTC)

Sure, whatever you can come up with. I have the page under work in User:Skire/sandbox5. --Skire (talk) 19:09, September 5, 2013 (UTC)
Also, I was thinking we make a separate category for pages that are related to the real-world instead of the Fallout universe as part of the project. --Skire (talk) 19:52, September 5, 2013 (UTC)
Category as in "Category:Real-world" or something along those lines. And very nice image, I think we can use it. It would also be the right thing to do to give the artist credit anyway. Make sure we have the proper citations or whatever so we don't face litigation or something XD --Skire (talk) 20:25, September 6, 2013 (UTC)

Sorry, beating your record...[]

Sorry, Guardian. I've beaten your 1-day editcount record. Saved uncategorized files for a week to make for some easy edits. I'm nearly at a 1,000 now and the day isn't over yet... Jspoel Speech Jspoel 18:03, September 6, 2013 (UTC)

An edit is an edit and categorizing is legit. I'm fine, still motivated for editing in a lot of departments as you can see, especially the files. I just added a few hundred soundfiles, and replaced most fo1 and fo2 character images. They're all 4:3 format now. Another fine improvement I'd say. We've got to keep our customers happy right? How's your mom? Jspoel Speech Jspoel 18:20, September 6, 2013 (UTC)
Good luck at University, and see you when you have the time. Jspoel Speech Jspoel 19:23, September 6, 2013 (UTC)

Etymology page[]

Hey - I hate to bother you, but I was wondering if you could create/update a few pages to bring my etymology page up to standards. Consider it pride on my part. ;) Thanks in advance. ForGaroux Some Assembly Required! 23:17, September 9, 2013 (UTC)

ACW[]

I've finished the page, here. I was wondering if you think anything should be fixed or added. --Skire (talk) 22:13, September 14, 2013 (UTC)

I don't teach children how to hyphenate, but that's how it was written here (not exactly hyphens, but a double dash (--)). Given it's on a Yale website, I'd say it's reliable. It may not be grammatically correct, but few sources from the 19th century are. ;) --Kastera (talk) 23:50, September 14, 2013 (UTC)

Hey, Ci. When you get the chance, can you give this forum a look? I have a few finished ideas that I'd like to get some community input from, and your feedback would be appreciated.

Salve Ci. Diu non locuti sumus et si omnia sint bene scire volo. Mox redi? (Sorry if that was atrocious, as I haven't practised in awhile...) --Skire (talk) 03:13, November 1, 2013 (UTC)

I've been working on improving the featured articles. I feel back since I told J I could have it done this Monday, but some things came up and it turned out to be a very busy time for me... Otherwise, things are going well. Hopefully your mother's condition improves, and you are able to manage your busy schedule with ease =) --Skire (talk) 01:46, November 7, 2013 (UTC)

Staff invitation to NotY[]

Hi there. As you may or may not know, the 2013 Nukapedian of the Year contest is currently ongoing. A lack of integrity in the original polling format has spurred a change in the voting system used. Inevitably, this new system has seen significantly fewer voters participating. As such, we would like to extend an invitation for you to go participate in the voting. Directions and voting itself can be found here. Thanks! --Skire (talk) (via the courier) 02:45, December 4, 2013 (UTC)

Re:Danny Boy[]

Sure, I'll take a look at it. And Happy New Year to you as well! --Skire (talk) 20:41, December 31, 2013 (UTC)

Not bad. Things have been getting busier for me as well this year, but I've been managing it all right I think. I've got another left of vacation before it's back to the daily grind! And how have you been? --Skire (talk) 20:44, December 31, 2013 (UTC)
I noticed awhile ago the missing film pages were being made. Although they didn't follow your precedents, I do think it's good that someone decided to take up the job, especially when we're seeing fewer and fewer active editors each month. They're looking great though, and the referencing is an important part (especially when much of the information on the wiki isn't referenced properly). I'm not doing much tonight, a few of my mother's colleagues are coming over for dinner. And it's great to hear that your mother's condition has stabilised! --Skire (talk) 21:40, December 31, 2013 (UTC)
I'm US East Coast, so it's 1720 here. --Skire (talk) 22:20, December 31, 2013 (UTC)

Done. --Skire (talk) 22:53, January 1, 2014 (UTC)

No, not at all. I've been multitasking a lot when on the wiki (simultaneously trying to finish vacation school-work =P), so I may not be as verbose as I used to be. --Skire (talk) 23:06, January 1, 2014 (UTC)
If not too inconvenient, could you do them? School resumes for me tomorrow (unless the incoming snowstorm forbids it) and I've been doing some work with Leon regarding inactive users. And what do you mean exactly by references on the other pages? They all have notes as to where they are mentioned in the Fallout universe. --Skire (talk) 23:43, January 1, 2014 (UTC)
It's a fine idea, but most of the content's source was Wikipedia (to which we've attributed in the edit summary upon page creation). --Skire (talk) 23:51, January 1, 2014 (UTC)

Thanks for fixing that on Gunny's TP, BTW, that was quite a foolish slip I made while trying to cut corners! And school has been cancelled for the next two days due to an impending snowstorm, so I can help with the history pages if you want. Also, you should know that I moved our project to "ongoing projects." --Skire (talk) 04:08, January 2, 2014 (UTC)

Fallout film[]

Yes, LolGuy (formely known as Broccoli) made work of them, and I didn't see a reason to intervene. I know you asked that you finish them, but you've been away too long and he was improving content (we had nothing). But you can go ahead and correct them and like you said, it gives you the motivation do polish them off, which may not have been the case if he hadn't created them. To answer some of your questions. I'm fine thanks; personally ok (spent holiday with my closest relatives) and the wiki is doing well too. Just received a big prize so that's a good way to start a year. Wouldn't know anything real major you missed. Things have been reasonably stable in the past half year. I'd go in chat and ask around for specifics. I do hope to see you editing again, it's one of the things I hope to see more of in general this year to come. I didn't remove any red links from the Fallout film. Ask LolGuy, from what I recall he did remove 1 or 2 links and changed them to redirects because they were too small for a page. Sorry, but I don't see a portal happening. It's a canceled movie treatment and not significant enough for an own portal. It has a link now in the Fallout in other media which Agent c created a while back. Good to see you back and best wishes for the year. Jspoel Speech Jspoel 16:12, January 2, 2014 (UTC)

Quick question[]

I usually don't like to read into things too much here, but what exactly did you mean by, "# Well, it seems it might very well be that way as Danny has undermined me on your TP I see."? I went to apologise in case I sounded too frustrated in my initial response to his post. It has no intention of undermine your stance (which I still agree with, but am looking for compromise at the same time). When I referred to "leaving it out," I meant leaving it out of FW:ADMIN, while possibly expanding it on FW:ABOUT (as part of a compromise). --Skire (talk) 02:25, January 3, 2014 (UTC)

I'm thinking of voting on both Ausir and Porter's rights (now that J has expressed disagreement) as well as permitting expansion of FW:ABOUT (as you, Chad, and myself believe it could be expanded) at administrative discretion. We can include Porter there. Also, maybe we can provide a link to them from the FW:ADMIN page (in the {{For}} template). And King Tut looks great! And leaving out the other one is fine - the post-WWII history may be contradictory at points and we should always go with canonical works. --Skire (talk) 02:44, January 3, 2014 (UTC)
By the way, I honestly do enjoy your presence here. Do you plan to stick around for awhile? Perhaps if you do, you should get those admin tools back. --Skire (talk) 03:14, January 3, 2014 (UTC)

Achievement[]

Now that's where you're wrong :) There is an achievement track for new pages, see Secret achievement tracks. One for an edit within the hour of the page its creation is the first one (other is 100 main namespace edits in one day). You've created quite a bit lately so you're well on your way. I got it 2 years back or so, when there were lots more red links. Jspoel Speech Jspoel 21:31, January 4, 2014 (UTC)

Ok you got me there. There isn't one specifically for creating a page. Go blame Wikia :) Jspoel Speech Jspoel 21:39, January 4, 2014 (UTC)
Admins can create achievements tracks for categories, but that's it I'm afraid. You can ask Wikia sure. Don't think you have much chance, but you can try. Jspoel Speech Jspoel 22:14, January 4, 2014 (UTC)
