Transparency[]

Could I borrow your expertise for a moment? I am wanting to make the background transparent for this image: GarouxBloodline-Medic Dragon Skål! 19:17, June 5, 2012 (UTC)

Oh, don't mind that at all. I want my user-page covered, but I was using my talk-page to experiment with image sizing for some custom CSS that Ghost made for me. Thank you for the image though. I wish I had the tools available to do that myself. Dragon Skål! 20:07, June 5, 2012 (UTC)

Sig had redirected it to the new template. That's not gonna work, so I un-redirected it. (Is that a word?). Any page that it's on now should be fine. The Gunny 380px-USMC-E7 svg 19:41, June 6, 2012 (UTC)

NL[]

Yes, I have to bring this up again =/ We still need to make final decisions on the notable loot policy, or at least the fixed locations list you guys have compiled. Perhaps a vote will be set up soon? I want to get my project going again, and it's dragging on too long with no progress. By the way, I missed you in chat! --Skire (talk) 23:51, June 6, 2012 (UTC)

Images[]

I hope you don't mind, but I was looking at making a couple more images transparent: Enclave Soldier by AdrianBorgnine Dragon

I've recently learned GIMP can possibly help me learn how to do it myself, so hopefully I won't have to keep pestering you in the future. :) Dragon Skål! 09:04, June 7, 2012 (UTC)

Thanks again! Can you do the same for my sig as well? Just recently found out it has a white background still. Dragon Skål! 11:15, June 7, 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for the warm welcome to the wiki. If there are any projects or anything else that I could help out on then please let me know. Othere than that I will just be editing whatever takes my fancy. Cheers Brynden Bloodraven Cauthon 13:18, June 7, 2012 (UTC)

Starting Out[]

Thank you. I've been using this wiki for a very long time and thought that I should start giving back after raiding the site for every scrap of info that I could. I think I might start on the Anti Capitalisation Project. I am pretty good at punctuation and the like, so I think that might be a good place to start. However, my activity here may be quite low for the next few weeks as I have a glut of exams to get through. After that though, I will be on here as often as I can.

Many thanks for pointing me in the right direction, and hoping to start contributing soon. Brynden Bloodraven Cauthon 17:18, June 7, 2012 (UTC)

I have no complaints with the wiki. I've used it for all kinds of things, from tracking down collectables to finding my favourite songs from the ingame radio stations. I've always found the wiki incredibly useful, and as I say, I though that I ought to start giving back to such a great site.

Cheers Brynden Bloodraven Cauthon 17:31, June 7, 2012 (UTC)

NUN[]

Hey J, have you considered becoming a mentor yourself? I know more than one user has found your advice and help invaluable. Agent c 17:48, June 7, 2012 (UTC)

Welcome aboard... Our friend above I'm likely to pair with Guardian, but hopefully we'll find a nice EU based user for you soon. Agent c 17:55, June 7, 2012 (UTC)
Its just Guardian's been waiting for a while, has seemed quite eager, and ticks all of the usual boxes, but there's no reason you both can't be involved... Agent c 18:20, June 7, 2012 (UTC)

Work[]

Hi J. I saw your recent post to GoTW, and I know that I'm one of the admins you've always counted on for editing. School's been a little busier but it should be better really soon, so I'm ready to take on some things that need to be done around here. I don't like having the admin position and not editing heavily any more. So if you could, give me a specific list of things that need to be done and I can get to that. I feel like I work better when there is a clear goal or task that needs to be accomplished. Thanks =) --Skire (talk) 18:40, June 7, 2012 (UTC)

A'ight, sounds good. --Skire (talk)

Absent Admins[]

Well don't worry J, I'll be back and super active in a few days time, so you'll have one back at least. Al said that he'd start editing again soon enough, again after exams, so it'll be fine. Also, my first year of uni is ungraded, so if I do no work, then it won't affect my grade - hence my intention ;). A note though, don't know about other countries but here it is rude or a faux pas to apologise for something and then say 'but'. That's just a heads up though, nothing more. If you like I wouldn't mine you giving me to-do lists like Danny suggested :) -- GOTW User | Talk 19:03, June 7, 2012 (UTC)

Well it can hardly be serious enough at this age to warrant that, especially as we are going to different universities and I only have a part-time job. I'll only be 'dating' if you will because I can't possibly see her all the time. And I wish I could call her my girl, but we'll have to see :). So no, not really, it doesn't matter what happens there. And yeah sure, I'll look through attention required for you when it comes to it. -- GOTW User | Talk 20:06, June 7, 2012 (UTC)

Xcom Wiki[]

Hi J, in the past I've given a splash in the news for Clyde's Vietnam wiki to help encourage folks to edit over there, was wondering if you'd like something similar for the Xcom wiki... Just this comment on Twitter from Brian Fargo seems like a good "endorsement" as it were...

I like XCOM Enemy Unknown more each time I see it.— Brian Fargo, Twitter

Jenkins[]

Just to let you know, duffel and duffle are both proper ways of spelling it. ;) Duffel is actually the traditional way of spelling it though here in America. Dragon Skål! 22:44, June 7, 2012 (UTC)

Just felt like I should bring that up since we have a few other differentiations from in-game spelling. Dragon Skål! 22:48, June 7, 2012 (UTC)
Right off the top of my head? Pre-War would be a good examples, since we use pre-War here. Also, names for certain animals such as Brahmin are considered proper and are capitalized in-game. Dragon Skål! 22:53, June 7, 2012 (UTC)

FOT stubs[]

How do you like that J? I just cleaned out the entire Category:Fallout Tactics stubs - it wasn't too bad at all =) --Skire (talk) 20:12, June 8, 2012 (UTC)

Yeah, I'll get to rest of them soon. --Skire (talk) 20:22, June 8, 2012 (UTC)

Update: FO2 and FOBOS stubs have been emptied and moved =) --Skire (talk) 20:58, June 9, 2012 (UTC)

Sure, it's all yours =) And I've always updated some of the categories a bit, and separated FOBOS2 stubs from the FOBOS ones. I will be getting to the FO stubs soon, let me know if you need anything. --Skire (talk) 00:19, June 10, 2012 (UTC)
Hi J. I just finished up moving the FO stubs. Not it's all done! Nice work =) --Skire (talk) 19:23, June 11, 2012 (UTC)

G.E.C.K.[]

Downloaded it the other day. After reading through the instructions that came with it, though, it seems the only way I can use it is by adding it into a pre-existing Fallout 3/NV folder. You wouldn't happen to know if there is a work-a-round? Dragon Skål! 19:36, June 10, 2012 (UTC)

The problem is, I need the actual Fallout folder because it contains the libvorbisfile.dll needed to run the G.E.C.K. Mostly, I just want to rummage around in it so I can get an idea of what sort of tools would be made available to me. If I'm lucky, it can help me out with a project I want to start when I get back in August. Dragon Skål! 19:46, June 10, 2012 (UTC)
Oh, and it's because I don't have any of the Fallouts for the PC. :P For right now, I just have the G.E.C.K. on my desktop. Dragon Leon Skål! 19:57, June 10, 2012 (UTC)
That could possibly work. I'll just create an empty Fallout: New Vegas folder and put both the .dll and the G.E.C.K. into it. Hopefully it'll do the trick. Dragon Skål! 20:05, June 10, 2012 (UTC)
Oops, I completely missed that. Let me go a head and replace my sig. Dragon Skål! 20:27, June 10, 2012 (UTC)
Damn... it almost worked. I have the G.E.C.K. up and running. Partially running, at least. It just crashes upon opening it. Seems it needs to have corresponding information from the game itself to function properly. Thanks for your help, J. I have another option I'm going to try and take advantage of. Dragon Leon Skål! 20:51, June 10, 2012 (UTC)
That's alright. :) Once Clyde gets on next, I'll be able to get it running. It'll be interesting to finally be able to crack this G.E.C.K. open and see what treasures lie within. Dragon Leon Skål! 21:15, June 10, 2012 (UTC)

I'm sorry[]

Big Sal[]

When you change the link from [[Big Sal|Big Sal's]] to [[Big Sal's]], I think the link recognizes the apostrophe and 's' as foreign, so it breaks it:P--Bunny2Bubble 18:36, June 11, 2012 (UTC)

Of course you did. Computers only can make errors, but their motives are always correct;)--Bunny2Bubble 18:44, June 11, 2012 (UTC)

Holorifle[]

Hi, Sigma and I were discussing a recent anonymous edit to the Holorifle Adv. Calibration (Mod) page. I don't think that the addition was speculation, but rather that the Gun Runners case is indeed that default world object for all mods. Sigma feels that it is just spec and should be removed. What are your thoughts on this? Just so we can clear it up?--Bunny2Bubble 19:18, June 11, 2012 (UTC)

Thanks J, I think your condensed note is much better. --Skire (talk) 20:26, June 11, 2012 (UTC)
I saw your edit, thanks for the intervention. I thought it was worth a small note. I saw that you were talking to Sigma above about having a lot of work, and not many hands, anything you'd like me to focus on? I work about 7 hours a day this week, but I have free time when I'm off (I can stay up late)--Bunny2Bubble 20:28, June 11, 2012 (UTC)
Will do. Thanks!:)--Bunny2Bubble 20:39, June 11, 2012 (UTC)

NL[]

Yes, I thought of that but I didn't realise even 1 box of Sugar Bombs were notable. I thought it was only a significant quantity (for common repeatable quest items)? --Skire (talk) 21:15, June 11, 2012 (UTC)

Why the undo on my Shalebridge edit? I understand my other mistakes, but I thought Metal Armor wasn't notable?--Bunny2Bubble 21:18, June 11, 2012 (UTC)
Ah ok, just for future reference, where is the other?--Bunny2Bubble 21:20, June 11, 2012 (UTC)

Hey J. Do you plan on signing your progress on the project tables? That way we can keep track more easily and so peer reviews can be done. Plus, you don't want your work to go unnoticed eh? --Skire (talk) 23:36, June 11, 2012 (UTC)

Most the time, we can change spelling, grammer etc. , unless the spelling and such looks intentional, but then again, it's all about one's perception on what looks intentional. Detroit lions Hawk da Barber 2012 23:19, June 11, 2012 (UTC)

Butch[]

Hi J. An anon (71.142.59.213) has recently brought to my attention Butch DeLoria's race, showing as Hispanic on the page. It has been this way for quite a while and I think there must be something in the GECK that can give us confirmation, right? Since I have no access could you check that for me and either get back to me or the aforementioned anon? Many thanks. --Skire (talk) 00:56, June 12, 2012 (UTC)

No problem. I know you're always going around helping out =) I haven't seen Clyde in a while, so it looks like you have to handle a lot more now eh? --Skire (talk) 22:47, June 12, 2012 (UTC)

Yes and no. It might be there, but I couldn't find it earlier so I added what I already had. Can you point out where it might have been on here because I can't find anything else what I uploaded there.

This might help

Melissa[]

I had some knowledge of the older games but it was also from the original note that you tried to save many times. A bunch of editors called the whole thing "speculation" and removed it all, and I see you tried to keep as much of it as possible. I felt like "Melissa has a New Zealand accent" doesn't make for a sufficient note so I added some more. I'm glad you like it! --Skire (talk) 22:56, June 12, 2012 (UTC)

I just gave you the Dutch version as a service. Pollen is all good in English too (the same exact thing). The word itself originates from Latin anyway. --Skire (talk) 23:20, June 12, 2012 (UTC)

I guess can you come into chat? I have a little free time if you need to talk with me. Dragon Leon Skål! 00:22, June 13, 2012 (UTC)

I am on the game right now (PS3) getting the mini empty Sunset Sarsaparilla bottle and I went to the Mojave Drive-In, and waited till night. I don't really see where that was taken... And I also watched the OWB preview - couldn't find it in their either. Hmm... --Skire (talk)

Yes, I thought you would be happy to have another "pupil" of your own (I kinda consider myself a pupil of yours too :P). He seems to be editing quite often and goes to you for help already. Plus, you're more patient than me, so it's a better match I think. --Skire (talk) 19:16, June 13, 2012 (UTC)

Nightstalker[]

Why did you change nightstalker to night stalker? It makes things very inconvenient... --Skire (talk) 22:58, June 13, 2012 (UTC)

Oh really? I never noticed that, always thought it was nightstalker. Well now pages like nightstalker blood and nightstalker tail will have to be changed, as well as all links... I guess that's what you get for keeping the wrong name up too long. --Skire (talk) 23:05, June 13, 2012 (UTC)

Fallout[]

Hey, I noticed something a little weird. On the Fallout page, it says: "While often mistaken to be developed by Black Isle Studios, the development studio did not even exist at the time." However, on the Black Isle Studios page, it says the division was founded a year before the game came out and that they did develop it. I think the Black Isle Studios page is right, but what do you think? Paladin117>>iff bored; 14:15, June 15, 2012 (UTC)

My recollection is that they were "Interplay's non DnD RPG Unit" and were then named Black Isle after Fallout's release in honour of Fergus Uqhart (as Black Isle is a place in Scotland, and he's Scottish). Agent c 14:22, June 15, 2012 (UTC)
Yeah, you're right, they had their name changed to Black Isle in 1998, however didn't they still develop Fallout before the name change? Maybe the pages should be reworded a bit. Paladin117>>iff bored; 14:41, June 15, 2012 (UTC)

For Auld Lang Syne[]

I noticed that while playing my game (on the PS3) that if you turn the mutants in Jacobstown hostile, the quest will fail, even if you've already recruited all of the Remnants. I checked the article and the talk page and no one else has reported this, so I wasn't sure if I should add this to the notes section, the bugs section, or add it at all.

Generic title[]

Hi J, it's me - your worst nightmare/least tolerable admin. I was wondering what you thought about the 'project' me and Kas started before the split between ourself as a hobby project before I had to semi-bail on this place and the Vault in order to concentrate on getting into university. It involved logically deciding what parts of history had to have happened directly for items and places in Fallout to make sense. For instance, King John of England and John Wilkes Booth were both made by us for this reason. Therefore, as I will soon be setting up the project at the Vault, I wondered if you wanted it here? It will basically involve me thinking about what had to have happened, what people needed to exist etc. for the world to make sense. As with all projects, collaboration is key, but I would like to be very much in charge of this one in the sense that people must put a case to me as to why a part of our history must also coincide with Fallout history to avoid 'bad' pages. What do you think? -- GOTW User | Talk 23:21, June 16, 2012 (UTC)

Just so you know, I'm actually still up waiting on your answer ;) -- GOTW User | Talk 23:48, June 16, 2012 (UTC)

Projects[]

Firstly, I set up the new project if you are interested.

Secondly, I found this and to be honest, I think it was extremely... well, wrong. As Itachou said to me, you can't remove people from a project as they are no longer active, because it denies them credit in the end. Now I'm not concerned with a medal or badge or the like, but I spent an entire summer on that project, which I think content wise easily surpasses your input, but you just deleted me from the list of contributors? I think that is frankly out of order, to keep my tone civil. Now I'm not expecting an apology, as I know you'd never give one, but I am going to ask that you don't do that again. The only reason I can see that you would do that is to get another edit, which I think is hardly as important as giving people the credit they deserve. Either that, or you were being bitter which I highly doubt. I'm sorry that not mucking up my future came before this place, but that's not a nice thing to come back to. Remember that I can't edit both the Vault and here when Fallout 4 comes out - I have to make a decision eventually, one that I'm still making. This doesn't have to escalate, but I felt compeled to tell you that I think that is out of order, BC or not. -- GOTW User | Talk 23:08, June 17, 2012 (UTC)

Hi J, can you take a look at this user; except in the unlikely event it really is him I think we have a probable troll... The single talk page thing thats been left so far doesn't inspire confidence.

Hi, J! As you must already know, I've acquired the BC rights to the PT wiki, and as you must also know, there's a lot of work to be done there. Many articles are lacking, and even more pics too. I've come here to ask for permission to use in-game images from Nukapedia on the PT wiki articles (kind of an adaptation). What do you say?

Hi there. I'm with you on the skill magazines, my original edit was to add that there were a large number in the tents as well as in House Resort. I also mentioned chems/armor, which probably don't qualify. The skill magazines and chems are found in groups of 3 in some of the footlockers in the tents, and are all of the same kind (3 x Il fantoma or 3 x turbo for example). I found 8 skill mags in the tents. I didn't remove the bottles and the house resort skill mags until after someone had removed my edit lol I figured if skill magazines don't count in the tents, they don't count in house resort either, and the bottles seemed ridiculous to me from the start. Anyway thanks for your feedback, I'm pretty new to the wiki.

Achievements[]

Hey J. It looks like someone enabled many more achievement paths now. Is that OK with you? --Skire (talk) 23:21, June 19, 2012 (UTC)

Tracks[]

I was looking at the edit tracks the other day. I think I turned on Gun Runners, maybe another one or two that I see people were still editing alot of. Sorry, should have asked/told you or Clyde. The Gunny  380px-USMC-E7 svg 23:37, June 19, 2012 (UTC)

No problem, I just wanted to know if it was fine. And yes I will be catching up to you a lot easier now with more tracks haha. --Skire (talk) 23:56, June 19, 2012 (UTC)

Variants[]

I got an odd one for you Js. Before you had told me that the variants and comparison tables go off of the repair lists in the infobox for weapons, eg Lincoln's Repeater goes with hunting rifle, etc. What do I do with Old Glory? It's repair list is:

  • Pool cue
  • Throwing spear

Pool cue's repair list is:

  • Pool cue
  • Throwing spear

Throwing spear's repair list is:

  • Throwing spear
  • Throwing knife spear

The knife spear repair list (all of them) is:

  • Throwing spear
  • Throwing knife spear
  • Knife spear
  • knife spear clean

Here's what I'm thinking. I already have knife spear/knife spear clean/throwing knife spear on all three of those pages. I add throwing spear with those. I put throwing knife spear on throwing spear. I put pool cue and Old Glory together, but leave off throwing spear from those pages? Or do I stick with the rules and do them exactly as the repair lists have them? The Gunny  380px-USMC-E7 svg 00:42, June 20, 2012 (UTC)

Ok. Cool beans. I wanna press ahead, so I'll add the tables like I outlined above, and we can alter them if they need it tomorrow. It's easier to take off than to put on.:) The Gunny  380px-USMC-E7 svg 01:17, June 20, 2012 (UTC)
Eh, strike that. I ran out of gas. I'll wait to hear from you tomorrow. The Gunny  380px-USMC-E7 svg 02:15, June 20, 2012 (UTC)
It's in the repair form list. On Old Glory's page, it shows its repaired by the formlist "RepairPoolCue". When you look up that under the formlist section, it'll show that the formlist "RepairPoolCue" consists of the pool cue and the throwing spear. Not sure what they were thinking there, maybe because all of them have wooden shafts? But that's how the formlists work. The Gunny  380px-USMC-E7 svg 19:56, June 21, 2012 (UTC)
The formlists are in the "Miscellaneous" section of the GECK. You would look up the repair formlist on the weapon page, then you have to look at the formlist itself in the formlist section. All the vendor lists, ammo lits, etc are there in the formlist section also. The Gunny  380px-USMC-E7 svg 20:22, June 21, 2012 (UTC)

Inactive[]

Just wanted to swing by and let you know I will be off the grid for a week or two. I'm running around taking care of some things and have some leads on jobs. I've dropped work on my Vietnam War Wiki as well so you know it's not just here. I will be back as soon as possible. If you need anything feel free to email me. Thanks!--Kingclyde 05:05, June 20, 2012 (UTC)

Untitled[]

Man, these new achievement paths are getting me a bunch of 10-point ones and so I feel like it's back in November last year again when I started editing. I guess it'll be a lot easier for everyone (including myself) since I'll be getting more that I should have gotten before since they were turned off. I will say I don't mind it at all, since before this I only got the occasional Mr. Fixit or 10 Points of Luck. Anyway, if you need any help on anything you know where to find me. I'll still be working on my notable loot project, don't want that to be one of those poor inactive projects. It's summer break for me so you should be seeing me on more often now. Ciao! --Skire (talk) 14:24, June 20, 2012 (UTC)

Inter-Wikia Translation[]

Hey there J. Thanks to one of Agent's News Digests, I recently learned of El Refugio, the Spanish Wikia sister of Nukapedia. Since they have very few articles, and since Spanish is my second language, I was wondering: I am allowed to manually (i.e. with myself and a dictionary, not with Google Translate) translate pages from Nukapedia to El Refugio?

Thanks,

Hi J. Can you check the Oversized and undersized items page and scroll down to the one supposedly found in Underworld Outfitters? I've tried many times but I can only find the normal wrench, not the small one. Could you perhaps use the GECK or verify my findings for me? Thanks a lot. --Skire (talk) 15:54, June 22, 2012 (UTC)

That's what I thought. Thank you J! --Skire (talk) 17:03, June 22, 2012 (UTC)

I'm interested in universe and space, so I just had that name change because of it. Though I am amazed how it took much time for someone to identify me. That is all. Energy X 18:50, June 22, 2012 (UTC)

Ambient chatter[]

Hai J, I need to ask a favour of you. See, I've been looking through the basic game files of FNV for the soundfile that has the ambient background chatter of Freeside and the Strip, but I can't seem to find it. Do you think you could see if it's in there, accessible? Thanks beforehand. Hugs MadeMan2 "Say 'ello to my little friend!"

Overdue Bugs[]

I thought it was strange when I checked the Verification Overdue category and nothing was there, but it seems overdue bugs aren't being moved over to this category when the notice turns red. For instance the page Remnants power armor has overdue bugs under the Verify Category but they aren't appearing in the Verification Overdue category.

Portals[]

Hello Jspoelstra, my name's Andrew.

I'm an admin over at the Metro 2033 Wiki, and we've been preparing articles for a sequel due out next year. I've proposed that we create a Metro 2033 Portal, and a Metro Last Light Portal, similar to what Nukapedia uses for it's games, and I was wondering if you could offer any help, or point me in the direction for help, in regards to the creation of portals on a wiki.

Thanks for your time. Teddy Picker 22:55, June 25, 2012 (UTC)

Most people I know use this Wiki anyways, but thanks for the advice/speedy response though! Teddy Picker 23:46, June 25, 2012 (UTC)
Well thank you very much, sir! If you ever have a project related to Fallout 3 or New Vegas related articles I'd love to help out. Other than the portal-issue, things have been a little slow on the Metro Wiki. Teddy Picker 00:00, June 26, 2012 (UTC)
It's more out of habit than anything, I even use it with my friends in real life, but if you say so! But yes, if I get some spare time I'll drop by here and check on that "Projects" page. Again, thanks for pointing me in the right direction! Teddy Picker 00:25, June 26, 2012 (UTC)

Vandal[]

Someone has been destroying the user pages as well as some pages on the wiki.

Templates and other oddities[]

Hi. Your wiki was moved onto MediaWiki 1.19, and that's what's causing all the weirdness. I've filed the problem with the templates with our engineers; hopefully they will fix that fairly quickly.

I'm not sure what you mean by the problem with Recent Changes -- I checked and it displays normally grouped changes for me. It's possible if you use custom js that something broke with the upgrade, or that I'm just not understanding what you meant. It's also possible it's a browser-related issue. You might want to report the problem to Special:Contact so we can work on it.

If you see any more issues please let us know! -- Wendy (talk) 17:31, June 28, 2012 (UTC)

The recent changes issue is caused by the auto-refresh script, when viewed in the enhanced view only. This has been broken by the recent upgrade and needs to be fixed by someone with scripting know how. User:AvatarUser talk:Avatar 20:30, June 28, 2012 (UTC)
Since it is our own script (Porters design) and not theirs. I don't know how much help or how quick they will be with that. User:AvatarUser talk:Avatar 20:51, June 28, 2012 (UTC)
Hi. They reverted the wiki to MW1.16 while they sort out the errors with the templates under 1.19. Avatar is correct that fixing your local script is not going to be high priority for us but you have a chance to try to get it sorted now while we fix the other issue. A fair number of our wikis use an auto-refresh script of some type so it's possible there is already a known solution if you ask around. -- Wendy (talk) 03:23, June 29, 2012 (UTC)

I see. I can't blame them either - perhaps we should have a notice put up regarding this so people won't try to "fix" it? --Skire (talk) 18:38, June 28, 2012 (UTC)

Hi J, it is just about Newsday. Was planning to hold back a few hrs, but in light of this can publish a bit early saying "don't fix messed up pages" if you like. Agent c (talk) 18:42, June 28, 2012 (UTC)

Thanks, J. But someone just did it again - removed one of the template brackets >_> Hopefully they'll stop once they see it. --Skire (talk) 19:31, June 28, 2012 (UTC)

Is that the disaster over now? I'll remove the newsflash if so. Agent c 23:07, June 28, 2012 (UTC)

Another problem J, not sure if you're seeing this too. On Special:WikiActivity every time a user edits a page it displays all the categories of that page being added again as if the user did it. --Skire (talk) 13:23, June 29, 2012 (UTC)

Haha, it seems to be working for me. I'm not sure though, but it doesn't matter too much anyway. --Skire (talk) 13:58, June 29, 2012 (UTC)

Future Prospects[]

Actually, I will be leaving today for Norway just as a chance to see my significant other before finally joining up with the Navy. I'll be back in a month, and I'll be around for around 2 more weeks. After that, I'll be shipping off to Lake Michigan for basic training. You know, I'm not really into sentimental topics, especially so over the internet, but I have to admit that I was quite touched by your message. All I've ever wanted is to see this wiki prosper, and lately it's felt like I've really let the wiki down by becoming more lax with my editing. It's nice to know that I'm still appreciated around the community; especially by you. I'll be back one day though. It will be interesting to see what has changed and who has come and gone during a 6 year absence. Dragon Leon Skål! 09:42, June 30, 2012 (UTC)

Calculator: A.I or Cyborg?[]

Concerning the Behemoth (Robot) page, I was wondering why my edit was undone. The Calculator page states that it's not an A.I but a cyborg, since a cyborg is a fusion of human and robotic parts, which defines the Calculator. Draevan13 (talk) 22:34, July 3, 2012 (UTC)

Nav box order[]

Hey Js, quick question: Nav boxes are supposed to be ordered top to bottom with the most relevant at the top. On a dlc weapon page, would you consider the game's weapon navbox or the dlc's navbox to be most relevant? The Gunny  380px-USMC-E7 svg 00:51, July 4, 2012 (UTC)

I'd say that's a fair idea. The sounds section doesn't take up much space, so people will still see the galleries underneath them. Some of those galleries are so large, people probably don't even know the sounds section is down there. I'll move the ones on the pages I'm doing the tables on if you want me to. The Gunny  380px-USMC-E7 svg 01:15, July 4, 2012 (UTC)
OK. It'll give me a chance to double check those navboxes. In know I saw some that we're ordered correctly, I'll get those at the same time. The Gunny  380px-USMC-E7 svg 01:20, July 4, 2012 (UTC)

MediaWiki 1.19[]

I've fixed the AjaxRC script. As for the help pages, you're free to copy them although I wouldn't necessarily recommend it - usually Wikia has own help pages which better describe Wikia-specific functionality. For instance, Help:Category would be the Wikia equivalent of The Vault's Help:Categories.

As for your edit being blocked, that's likely because it contained an external link (the link to the forum thread). We've had some trouble with spambots so we disallowed anons to post external links. Since we've made some other improvements in that regard, I'll check back with Ghost whether that restriction is still needed. -- Porter21 (talk) 05:15, July 4, 2012 (UTC)

I see he replied very quickly. Yes, it is a bit odd that that is the case for you, but if you ever need any messages delivered, bare in mind I'm as active there as here (which is, granted, not that great at the moment due to family) but I do check here and there when I get a minute, so if you'd like you can feel free to ask me to deliver messages over there for you :) -- GOTW User | Talk 11:51, July 4, 2012 (UTC)
Yep, that's done for you now J. I think you might want to look through your preference pages though, because it is an option to turn that button into recent changes rather than wiki activity. You could also add it to your bar at the bottom of the page :). Hope that helps if Porter is slow to reply (not saying that he will be, as he's not marked himself as away). -- GOTW User | Talk 17:35, July 4, 2012 (UTC)
Yeah, sure. Go: Preferences > Gadgets > User interface section > tick the first box. Maybe it became unchecked when the upgrade came in, I'm not sure. And yeah, I'll put that little extra bit over for you, no problem ;) -- GOTW User | Talk 19:17, July 4, 2012 (UTC)

(It wasn't blocking you with the no links message, it was reminding you to add a signature. This was because you added a direct link to your message instead of using the normal ~~~~. If you had pressed submit again it would have posted it regardless of adding a signature or not. However I have updated the rule to now recognise direct links as well as the normal ~~~~, so it shouldn't be an issue for you in the future. User:AvatarUser talk:Avatar 23:02, July 4, 2012 (UTC)

Replacing the "Wiki Activity" button with a "Recent changes" one is done via the "AdvancedOasisUI" gadget (the same Guardian told you to check), which you were probably using before the update. It's not allowed to implement this change site-wide as that'd violate Wikia's Terms of Use (since that'd constitute as altering the user interface site-wide). The script itself is still working fine (I'm using it myself); if you're still having trouble with it it'd likely be due to other gadgets or scripts interfering. In that case you'd have to let me know which gadgets you're using so I can try to track it down.
The gibberish on RC looks like something Wikia broke during the upgrade; don't think it's caused by any custom modifications on this site. They'll likely fix it eventually. -- Porter21 (talk) 11:07, July 7, 2012 (UTC)

Auto-Hide[]

Hey J... Noticed with the upgrade the contents section seems to auto-hide... Any idea how to override it to make it all show? Agent c (talk) 17:44, July 4, 2012 (UTC)

Yep, the Table of Contents section. The element is there, but it auto-hides - you need to click on "Show" next to the title to see the actual Table of contents... Agent c (talk) 17:55, July 4, 2012 (UTC)

Recent changes[]

Just added it to the forum page, /wikia.css is not being imported. If you move it to /common.css (which is the mediawiki default) it will work. As for the button, I will need to look into that, there are a lot of issues I need to track the down and post in the forum page. User:AvatarUser talk:Avatar 20:16, July 4, 2012 (UTC)

What exactly is the issue with RecentChanges? User:AvatarUser talk:Avatar 20:39, July 4, 2012 (UTC)
You confused me there with saying "Recent changes still no dice". The broken links category it a auto generated category, this is something different to Special:WantedFiles. You can read about it here mw:Help:Tracking categories. Basically it is files linked to via <code>[[:File:....]], so that is what you want to be looking for. User:AvatarUser talk:Avatar 20:50, July 4, 2012 (UTC)
Just got your second message, I need to check into that one. But it isnt CSS related, I do believe that is JS driven and is probably due to the element changing name, so it no longer hooks onto it and makes the corrections. User:AvatarUser talk:Avatar 20:52, July 4, 2012 (UTC)
The issue with Catergory:Pages with broken file links wasn't GarouxBloodline talk template, but the improper use of the {{Infobox character}} template used within it. GarouxBloodline added '''.gif''' as the image for the infobox, I have corrected that issue now. Also it seems that [[File:Placeholder|thumb|220px]] that is added to every new user users page is going to create the same issue. Plus those already in place, but the existing ones wont show until the page is edited and rebuilt by the MediWiki software (may even update during the overnight wiki re-caching of special, although it seems to add and remove them real time at present), so there is potentially a massive amount of pages affect not yet showing.

Sorry about that. I must've accidentally hit the rollback. I have so many pages up in my browser now I kind of lost track :P --Skire (talk) 16:24, July 5, 2012 (UTC)

I have reverted my reversion so now it's the original version by the anonymous user. You can go ahead and rewrite the note now. --Skire (talk) 16:31, July 5, 2012 (UTC)

Hey J, could you check or find out for me if there are really any super mutants on Mothership Zeta? According to the article here and at the Vault, there are (see appearances) but I'm very doubtful of that. --Skire (talk) 17:11, July 5, 2012 (UTC)

Idea[]

So, since yesterday the slideshow didn't work the way it should, I have another idea. It may be a bit foolish, but I might have some later. You should discuss with Clyde (and GhostAvatar even) for this.

I would make a competition about a Fallout fan-fiction (not sure what to include yet), but the reward would be to become an admin for a day (of course, if he starts vandalising pages, he would get banned with his adminship revoked). To avoid that, maybe 200 edits are in order to enter the competition.

So, what do you say? Energy X 10:32, July 6, 2012 (UTC)

So I take it you don't approve? Don't worry then, I'll figure something out... eventually. Energy X 20:21, July 6, 2012 (UTC)

Point Lookout locations pages[]

Man, those were some tough pages. The formatting was off for a lot of the articles. But after a morning of editing, I've got them done, along with that section in the notable loot project too. I also went in-game to check for some things, including the rewards at the end of the An Antique Land quest. If you're up to it, could you help do some peer reviews for the project? You do look quite busy now with all the files and such. --Skire (talk) 16:50, July 6, 2012 (UTC)

It's nice to know I've succeeded in the ZAX challenge =) And I can fill in those project boxes for when you're done if you want. --Skire (talk) 20:29, July 6, 2012 (UTC)

My resignation[]

Hey there J. I've been a lousy admin, banning people for no reason and being a total hassle, and so I've finally decided I've been trouble long enough. I don't deserve it. Please take this as my official resignation from the site and my administrative duties. Also, please ban my account forever, because I don't want to ever show up here. Make sure to please remove my rights to edit my own TP as well. I will never come back and request to be unbanned, nor have my rights restored, and so if anybody comes back clamming it's me, ban them for sockpuppeting and impersonating a former administrator. Toodles! <3 Limmiegirl Lildeneb Talk! ♪ 00:48, July 7, 2012 (UTC)) Best to do that, wouldn't want people to see that (though it is fake). So we have 3 accounts like those: Limmegirl, Jpoelstra and Zeginfester. Somebody is really annoying. Energy X 08:13, July 7, 2012 (UTC)

Lol. Js, I've taken care of the imposter above, but I figured I'd let you read this before we finalize their ban. Right now, I gave them a month for impersonating an admin, but I believe that this is a sockpuppet of the person that keeps vandalizing Limmie's and Zerg's pages. You got any problems with a perma-ban? Let me know or change it yourself if you want. The Gunny  380px-USMC-E7 svg 00:56, July 7, 2012 (UTC)
So... not only does someone have way too much time and butthurt on their hands, but they also don't seem to realize you can hit up user talk pages on any wiki on wikia to get someone's attention... User:Great_MaraMessage 02:38, July 7, 2012 (UTC)

Chat[]

Hey, Js, chat is very busy still and there are no mods on. I got to get some sleep, so I temporarily gave Higgey and Hawk mod rights for the evening. If you get to it before I do, would you please remove them in the morning. The Gunny  380px-USMC-E7 svg 05:44, July 7, 2012 (UTC)

Promo[]

I have to ask about this - I think I have found someway to promote our wiki, but I have to ask first - is there some scripting that would allow a logo to appear in the chat at a certain time (like from 8:30 UCT to 13 CET)? Energy X 08:25, July 7, 2012 (UTC)

Not on the front page. I have an idea of making quiz in the chat, keep people entertained (not much buisness these days in the chat) and perhaps more people would come. But since you said that isn't possible, I guess I should think of other ideas. Energy X 16:25, July 7, 2012 (UTC)

GhostAvatar[]

Yes, his poll is done. Either this way (or he could have asked you about the rights) he should have the bureucrat position. Energy X 22:01, July 7, 2012 (UTC)

Ghost's poll[]

Is over, if one of you guys would like to pass the results. I've locked it so we don't get anymore late votes. The Gunny  380px-USMC-E7 svg 00:20, July 8, 2012 (UTC)
