Re: Blog Comment[]

What gibberish comment where you refering to? --UserofMagnum 11:29, June 30, 2011 (UTC)

Right I'll make sure not to do it again. Thanks for clearing that up. --UserofMagnum 11:40, June 30, 2011 (UTC)

Skill fighters[]

I'll start on the energy weapons fighters from F:NV. Kastera (talk) 16:14, June 30, 2011 (UTC)

Ouch, you look all character one by one directly from the G.E.C.K.? You have a great courage my friend ;), this must be a exhausting work!
Honestly I do not know, I know we can export dialogues but that's all, I never found any other way to export information from the G.E.C.K. May be you can see in Fallout Nexus if a modified version of the G.E.C.K. with this possibility exist.
Betty? The identity of Stanislaus Braun in Tranquility Lane? Haha, interesting =). Sorry I can't help you more =(, I can just wish you good luck my friend. Itachou [~talk~] 16:27, June 30, 2011 (UTC)

Oooh, that may put me in bind. I don't have access to the GECK right now, so I'll just ahve to go down the line of the Fallout : New Vegas characters page and manually look. I may miss out on a couple of energy weapons fighters, but we can always come back later. Kastera (talk) 16:43, June 30, 2011 (UTC)

Yes Kastera ;). Otherwise, with new Fallout games anyway, pages will have new persons and will be re-adjusted, maybe later the number could also be adjusted, but this is a rather distant future for now.
H? Haha, like I said you are a god! The One in action =)! Itachou [~talk~] 16:49, June 30, 2011 (UTC)

Deletion[]

I don't think it was intentional, but you deleted part of my signiture. Just checking to see if you knew and if there was a reason before I re-upload it. Please get back to me as soon as you can (I'm sure you will). :) TheGuardianCalligraphyGuardianoftheWastesTag I had a scan through the rules and I couldn't see the problem so I put it back, but please tell me if you have a problem with it :) TheGuardianCalligraphyGuardianoftheWastesTag

Just the text. You said it was due to it being unused, but you weren't to know :). I came back today and it just said 90px. It seems obvious that it was a misunderstanding. Thanks for your time and have a nice evening :) TheGuardianCalligraphyGuardianoftheWastesTag

Notable skilled people[]

Hello my friend ;)

I would like to send you some rules that I thought to give a nice layout, reliability and quality.

  • Relied on the skills I think is necessary only for non-combat skills - for invisible skills. If an important person or companions uses a weapon, even if his skill is not tagged, the correct to do is to put in the section. If an important character have a taggued skills but no weapons directly in its inventory that can be used for this skill, he should not be in the section, since in-game and generally in the Fallout universe, he will never use this weapon (I think it's the best solution because the SPECIAL is not something totally reliable, the Master have only 3 in charisma when he should have a charisma of 10 easily for exemple, or 3 in intelligence for Marcus, I think you see where I'm coming ;).
  • Apart from special case proving in-game that the person is competent in several combat skills (like Joshua Graham with his dialogue when he put into melee weapons, Fawkes with he first uses primary a supersledge and after a gatling laser or Frank Horrigan with simultaneous use of a knife and an energy weapon, in addition to killing a deathclaw in one punch), the best thing is to put it only on one page, the principal weapon he used, to avoid duplication and especially not re-view each time the same character.
  • There is no need to put the number if we use a taggued skill, since it's a background section.

What do you think my friend =)? Itachou [~talk~] 20:26, July 1, 2011 (UTC)

Yes. In fact we can not say that a person is a notable user of this skill if it can not even use it directly (no energy weapon in this inventory for exemple) and not have the habit of using it in-game. It works only for combat skills as we can see what weapon skill a person use in-game (also excluding Toshiro Kago, all important characters and companions have the skill taggued for their primary weapon).
For non combat skill, we can rarely see them in-game (except for Lenny (Doctor), Myron (Science) and Vic (Repair) in Fallout 2 and repair for some merchants in Fallout 3 and Fallout: New Vegas). It's better I think to rely on what we can see in-game, which really happening in the world of Fallout.
All Fallout mappers and GECK are things that are out-game and their data are not normally visible, and well, they are sometimes distorted as I have shown you, but they excel when we can not get directly the information in-game. What do you think my friend =)? Itachou [~talk~] 21:39, July 1, 2011 (UTC)

Inserting nonsense/gibberish into pages[]

This guy caught vandalizing Festus (Fallout: New Vegas). Please block him before he causes more vandalism/ --M72 GauzzUser talk:Gauzz Rifle 09:22, July 3, 2011 (UTC)

Caravan cards[]

Since you've done a lot of work on the current Caravan card pages, I figured I'd coordinate with you regarding a new setup I'm planning :) Basically, I want to combine all the card pages into one ("Caravan card") with the names of the formerly separate pages linking to the corresponding entry on the combined page (similar to how Fallout: New Vegas keys works). I've created a first draft at User:Porter21/sandbox4; please let me know what you think. Personally, I think we should get rid of the GECK IDs since each card has an unique name anyway, but I wanted to hear other people's opinions first before I do that.

The "card decks" section on that page is not finished by the way - we're looking at 34-84 cards for each deck and I'm still pondering how to organize them so they don't use too much space. Maybe I'll also move them off the page entirely (to the Caravan deck article). -- Porter21 (talk) 12:15, July 3, 2011 (UTC)

I added image links for all of the cards to the gallery in my sandbox - galleries just don't show images which do not exist anymore (if you edit the section you'll see it). I wasn't aware there are images of the actual ingame cards around somewhere. If you're referring to the Collector's edition card images which are currently used on the card pages, these should go on Fallout: New Vegas promotional items in my opinion as they aren't really images of the ingame items. -- Porter21 (talk) 16:39, July 3, 2011 (UTC)
Form IDs != GECK IDs; I was talking about the "CardClubs2b"-type IDs. Regarding the CE images, proper organization of content is more important than prominent image placement to be honest, and the card pages really do not have enough content to stand on their own. That said, we could move the CE caravan cards to an own page ("Caravan card (promotional item) entirely if you feel that they'd be drowned on the promotional items page. That page could then be linked from the articles "FNV promotional items", "Caravan card" and "Caravan (game)". -- Porter21 (talk) 18:41, July 4, 2011 (UTC)

Hello again :)[]

Not sure if it is within you powers, but I need a page renamed. The Redding Sheriff's Department is called Sheriff's office, but it is not the only one (for example the one I made yesterday for the one in NCR). Would it be possible for you to rename it Redding Sheriff's Department for me or should I ask a bureaucrat? If you could get back to me either way please? Thanks Jspoel, TheGuardianCalligraphyGuardianoftheWastesTag 13:48, July 3, 2011 (UTC).

I see, thanks. In the game the only name is on the sign which simply says 'Sheriff's', but I see where you are coming from and I'll do that now. Also, just to let you know User:Nectu is removing all your Van Buren images, but I did drop him a friendly note just now, so give him a minute to pick that up first. So, basically I'll rename them 'Sherrif's Department (-town name-)@ because that is the correct terminology and no clear name is given. Seem fair? TheGuardianCalligraphyGuardianoftheWastesTag 14:31, July 3, 2011 (UTC)

Page renaming[]

Having some small problems, which I have no idea how to sort out. First, when typing either into the search, they don't come up. Secondly, Sheriff's office goes to a disambiguation page which needs to be got rid of. I'd rather you told me how to do it like before for the experience, but if its easier for you to do it, please do. Sorry about this, TheGuardianCalligraphyGuardianoftheWastesTag.

Edits[]

I've only just realised you've made over 30000 edits. Congrats, I'm sure it took quite some doing :) TheGuardianCalligraphyGuardianoftheWastesTag

Thanks to you too. I try to improve the images and was a bit shocked that some locations, like Rawhide Saloon, didn't exist on here. I've made it my very own mini-mission to add these locations, as well as fit in the FO1 and 2 cahracters project, which again I'm the only one doing at the moment ;). It's good fun though, and I can see why you are number one and why you put those spare hours in :) TheGuardianCalligraphyGuardianoftheWastesTag
Nice of you to say :). I'm ging to do the Hall of Congress before the end of tonight too. Do you play the older ones at all? TheGuardianCalligraphyGuardianoftheWastesTag 17:29, July 3, 2011 (UTC).

Department, office etc[]

Sorry about the late reply :). I accidentally capitalised department: I can assure you that I meant no offence to you whatsoever. Also I just forgot to add town because I was trying to do it as quick as possible for people. And lastly, in the US of A, they are called Sheriff's department not offices (I looked it up beforehand) - ;). It's as simple as that really, TheGuardianCalligraphyGuardianoftheWastesTag 16:33, July 3, 2011 (UTC).

Thanks for explaining that to me Jspoelstra. Im new so yea, Just trying to help.

Whats up[]

hey dude

um, is it alright if you give some advice about how to get a character info box in my page because I like designing but is it ok.


hope u get this message mate.

cheers!

Vandal Carnage[]

Did you notice the carnage form the vandals that was here earlier? Anyway, me and gears fixed it. There's a link to one of the vandals on Cartman's talkpage. Hugs Scar: "Say 'ello to my little friend!" 12:55, July 4, 2011 (UTC)

  • Yeah, Gears suggested it today, I've heard it before. I might just do so ;).

Vault 0[]

Hi, i'm new to wikis and trying to learn, so thanks on your help :)

  • Err... How am i going to remove that part you mentioned? As i said, i am new to wikis(less than a month and only a few minor-medium edits) and in the learning phase right now.

Older Fallouts[]

I would definitely recommend them, especially Fallout 2. There quite cheap at the moment and are certainly worth the money. I got both of them for less than £10 and probably less than 10 Euros. I understand what you mean too; it is indeed good fun editing on here, but can be very time consuming. Last night I spent at least 4 hours on pictures for Westin Ranch. The whole area shot took at least 20 different pictures. The only problem is with a newer computer it is very hard to get rid of the 'rainbow effect'. It took me two patches and a bit of tinkering with the installed software itself to get it going, but now I have 1366x768 resolution, which is very good really. Would you have problems getting it though? Talk soon :); TheGuardianCalligraphyGuardianoftheWastesTag.

P.S. Sorry about the late reply, I didn't realise you had done until just now.
Yes, I've seen some of your pictures as you upload them. They really are fantastic! Do you take them on PC and then upload them? And thanks very much, that is kind of you to say. It's nice when someone acknowledges hard-work ;).
Well you are one of the hardest workers of all, and that is plain to anyone who comes on here. Some of the caves you do are really good, and they look quite real occasionally. All in all, I think it is more than fair to say you do a sterling job :) TheGuardianCalligraphyGuardianoftheWastesTag 19:39, July 4, 2011 (UTC).
Upon reflection, it seems unlikely you will have come across the term 'sterling' before, it really is a very English thing to say ;). Basically, great as well as consistent.
Sorry, I've been distracted by various things for a few hours, but I wanted to say that the way that you capture the light is very good indeed. Anyway, before I leave you so that you can complete what I'm sure will be greater works, I would like t6o suggest a few things, if I may. If you do get the time to play the older games, then I would strongly dissaude being a slaver. Nothing good comes of it and even extra caps become useless very fast. Also, it is a good idea to tag skills which you plan on using heavily, and to get Science and Lockpick to a decent level too. Lastly, have a decent Charisma (8ish) and then get the Magnetic Personality perk. 5 companions is always handy. I'm certainly not trying to patronise you, so don't take this the wrong way. Perhaps, if you do start playing them, we could do a quest overhaul too? Just an idea for now. See you soon and (probably) goodnight. TheGuardianCalligraphyGuardianoftheWastesTag 21:03, July 4, 2011 (UTC).

P.S. Your English is, although I hesitate to admit it, better than many native speakers. Might I ask why? Of course do not feel obliged to answer as that would be plain rude of me otherwise ;).

Oh I see, that makes perfect sense then I suppose :).Okay then, it's been nice chatting, so thank you Jspoelstra.

I hope to see you around, on the same friendly terms of course ;). Thanks again, TheGuardianCalligraphyGuardianoftheWastesTag 21:18, July 4, 2011 (UTC).

Super mutant in GECK[]

Goedenavond Jspoelstra ;)

Well, I don't know if it's normal, but I can't equip a super mutant with a weapon, although I put him a weapon, he remains bare hands. I tried to do with other pre-created super mutant and it's the same, they even seem to have "super mutant special weapons" in their inventory, but in the pre-view window, they remain bare hands.

It's the same for you? Have you a solution? Thanks in advance for your help my friend =)! Itachou [~talk~] 22:48, July 4, 2011 (UTC)

Hartelijk dank =), this is not something wrong with my GECK I was afraid. I'll ask Avatar tomorrow I go sleep, if ever this problem can be solved, I'll let you know. Goeienacht and see you soon Jspoelstra ;)! Itachou [~talk~] 23:53, July 4, 2011 (UTC)

Timeline[]

Hi, i found an inconsistency in the timeline;

October 15: Colonel Spindel commits suicide. All scientists are executed

October 23: The Mariposa Military Base survives; the soldiers and scientists within protected from the radiation and FEV flooding the wasteland

but i am hesitant to change it as it may be because of the inconsistent information given in game so i am reporting it to you instead of changing it myself.

Map marker images[]

Well, the short answer is "next week or at the end of the month". The long answer is that today I want to finish cleaning up the FNV misc item overview and my "auto-join chat" script, tomorrow I'll start working on finally getting the new infoboxes done (which will take a few days) and then I'll start working on the mapping tools (starting with the map marker functionality since you're waiting for it). Unfortunately, I'm going to be away (once again) from 13 July until 25 July, so I don't know how much progress I can make before that. -- Porter21 (talk) 12:47, July 6, 2011 (UTC)

Yeah, local maps will be affected as well. What I call "mapping tools" basically encompasses world maps, map marker images and local maps. World maps and map marker images will be intertwined, i.e. the map marker images will basically be sections of the overall world map. It'll then be possible to add markers to all those maps without having to use an image program; you'll be able to do it directly from the wiki. The only images we'll still need are the base world map of the game and the raw local maps. -- Porter21 (talk) 13:19, July 6, 2011 (UTC)

Chat[]

Hey I thought you could maybe interwene here, we got a troll on the chat who is generally annoying, and has called some users "Fat" and "Fatty" repeatedly, not listening to warnings. Do you mind? Hugs Scar: "Say 'ello to my little friend!" 14:42, July 6, 2011 (UTC)

Sexy sleepwear[]

I go with a split every single time purely to save confusion between DT and DR. Even though DR is not prevalent in FNV in favor of DT, it still exists in some cases (i.e. Rebreather).

Quick question[]

I know that capitalisation is a 'hot topic' right now, but do you think that power plant should be capitalised in a page name? It is not an official name (Fallout 2) again so it's really up to judgement. I think that it probably shouldn't because it is not the official place name. As a side note, there isn't one. Thanks Jspoel TheGuardianCalligraphyGuardianoftheWastesTag 20:44, July 7, 2011 (UTC)

Okay then. That's what I was thinking and I'm inclined to agree with you. Thanks for the help :) TheGuardianCalligraphyGuardianoftheWastesTag 21:06, July 7, 2011 (UTC).

So long[]

Well J, it's been a fun ride. But now that everybody THINKS I am a guy, I may as well just leave the Vault because I am never goign to be respected here again. Even Ausir agrees with this stupid Rumor. Why is it that a girl like me, after all I have been through, can't just be left alone? I hate the internet. This is the second time something like this has happened to me since I moved in with my roommate. I HATE people... Well anyway I guess this is good bye. --PipGirl101 03:56, July 8, 2011 (UTC)

Well J, I have been told by many people to just stick it out for a while and see how it goes so I will not be leaving, yet. I will however be spending less time here. This expierience has tought me that I shouldn't get close to people anymore because everyone I ever have gotten close to ends up hurting me. So I guess I will be here for a while longer. See you around I guess. --PipGirl101 14:57, July 8, 2011 (UTC)

I've looked into this, and PipGirl definitely isn't who "she" says she is. I don't really mind people using a different identity online than in real life, but I've found the overall drama about it disruptive to the community. Ausir(talk) 08:10, July 9, 2011 (UTC)

Okay.[]

Will do. Gheart 15:46, July 8, 2011 (UTC)

I didn't do this for the achievements, I did it because of the redlinks, I stopped at the quality assurance because I wasn't sure if I should of added them or not since they just tested the game. Gheart 16:24, July 8, 2011 (UTC)

As I've been asked[]

Can you say why you blocked User:Maggots! usernamr as he was asking me on the chat. - RASIC Talk Poll 16:19, July 8, 2011 (UTC)

I have to voice my opinion, and I don't think this is offensive at all. If his name was "Youareallmaggots", then maybe, but it isn't. I think this issue could be attributed to the language barrier if anything, as I and many other users don't find the name offensive. --User:Cartman!User talk:Cartman! 17:12, July 8, 2011 (UTC)
I don't see what's offensive about it either. Ausir(talk) 08:07, July 9, 2011 (UTC)

Haha you were not forced =), in fact I just wanted to know the reason why he did that. He was a "good" vandal, he did not look too aggressive so I thought maybe he had something to tell (my Burning Man side). Anyway, I think he deserved in the end, so good job!

Category shift.[]

I thought that because of other towns that was required. I'd really rather you didn't, because I am adding pages to them nearly daily as a sort of mini-project: could they not be left as they are? TheGuardianCalligraphyGuardianoftheWastesTag

Fair enough. I made the original category too, by the way :). Just a quick question: do you dislike me. I'm not saying that you're picking on me or anything of the sort, it's just you come across as a bit cold, even when I'm being friendly. Again, as always, don't feel you have to answer. TheGuardianCalligraphyGuardianoftheWastesTag 22:15, July 9, 2011 (UTC).
Yes, that seems understandable and I can empathise with you. It seems unavoidable that you have grown to dislike me though, and I am unsure why. I tried to be friendly so that we could get on from the start. I'm sorry to have bothered you and I will try to be less 'effort' for you, even if that means to stop contributing. Sorry to have clouded up the wiki with problems. Good day Jspoelstra, sorry for ruining it for you. User:GuardianOfTheWastes.

What say we start again? I'm not entirely sure why you dislike me, but I think that us both being active was bound to cause problems. I'd like to extent the hand of friendship once more. If you do not want to, then I am sorry, but I can do no more. I await your reply. TheGuardianCalligraphyGuardianoftheWastesTag 19:17, July 10, 2011 (UTC).

I couldn't be more pleased that you agree :). Thanks, Jspoel. I know that we both want the same thing (to help and improve the Vault), and we were bound to clash, so I'm glad we can start fresh.

Anyway, I will stop it until you say otherwise. Sorry I bothered you!MysteryStranger 22:07, July 10, 2011 (UTC)

Richthofen[]

By all means ask a bureaucrat, as this is definitely an unusual situation. What you suggest is probably the only thing we can do, until reliable sources (e.g. non-Admin Chat Mods) are established, however the witnesses were reliable in my opinion. Three days isn't very satisfying judged upon the severity of the issue, but the bureaucrats will be the deciding factor as you say. --User:Cartman!User talk:Cartman! 22:02, July 10, 2011 (UTC)

I would not put to much weight into screen shots, those can easily be modified if desired. What is needed, is a short term chat log that can be accessed by admins. As for chat rules, The Vault:IRC channel#Channel rules apply to chat as well. User:AvatarUser talk:Avatar 23:45, July 10, 2011 (UTC)
Ausir would be the best, since he is Wikia staff. Already told another Wikia staff member (who was in chat a few days ago) about a few things that need adding (forgot to tell them about the chat log thing). But I did suggest separating kickban into kick, and ban. With kick just banning them from chat, while ban bans them from both chat and the site. Also suggested about adding in time frames for the bans in chat as well, so no need to manually remove them. Lets hope they add them soon. User:AvatarUser talk:Avatar 23:55, July 10, 2011 (UTC)

Small bullet(s)[]

Hello my friend ;)

I just turn my PS2 and the game on, and reach one of my saves with a vendor. The full name is "Small bullet ammo" =). Itachou [~talk~] 23:13, July 10, 2011 (UTC)

You're welcome Jspoelstra =).
Also, I don't know if you saw but I don't edit at the moment although I'm on The Vault. In fact, I'm doing a monstrous job on the Reaver Movement page, combining all the information available in-game as their gods, their beliefs and so on. I'll stop there but I think finished tomorrow, take a look you may be surprised (seeing things like Electric Father of Creation, Satansoft or Be'alza-Gates)! Nog een goede avond mijn vriend en goeienacht ;)! Itachou [~talk~] 23:27, July 10, 2011 (UTC)

kirisu[]

Yeah I just saw that, the way the sentence is structured made me think they were both girls for some reason, should have clicked on his link I suppose, sorry --BattlecattleBeware4sig 00:54, July 11, 2011 (UTC)

Opinion, again[]

Once again, I'd like your opinion on a matter here concerning if "Leg. healing powder" is "Legate healing powder" or "Legion healing powder". I personally think it's the former, because only Legate Lanius uses the healing powder, thus "Legate healing powder". Kastera (talk) 04:02, July 11, 2011 (UTC)

Capitalization policy[]

Sorry to be a bother (again), but Great Mara and I were wondering what the Vault's policy is on capitalizing directions while they are a part of a proper noun. An example would be Freeside's north gate, which is what it's called now. But shouldn't it be Freeside's North gate? Just wondering what your take on it is. Thanks. --BattlecattleBeware4sig 05:32, July 11, 2011 (UTC)

  • Ok, sounds good.
There is some inconsistency on this site in regards to this. In the original The Vault:Anti-capitalization project it states "Please remember! Proper names like Fat Man, Stealing Independence, or Fort Constantine are not to be changed, nor are locations with a map marker even if that name isn't a proper name, such as Deathclaw Sanctuary." Yet this has not been added to the capitalizing section of the Vaults policy, remaining undefined in that respect. User:AvatarUser talk:Avatar 20:29, July 11, 2011 (UTC)
At the time of the project all locations that appeared on the world map should be capped. However, since it isn't in the current policy, I can only assume 2 things. Either it wasn't added because some forgot to add it or felt it didn't need to be mentioned because it was obvious. Or it was removed and changed for various reasons at a later stage. Since I wasn't around at the time and it would be hard to track down any kind of change that might have happened at a later stage after the completion of the project, I cant really say. But I am like you, I feel that all map markers on the world map should be capped regardless. User:AvatarUser talk:Avatar 20:48, July 11, 2011 (UTC)

Blogs and images[]

I want to make a blog, but it requires a title. When i make a title, it refuses. Do you know how to fix it? Also, how do you make an image in the game? I know how to upload an image. MysteryStranger 10:21, July 11, 2011 (UTC)

Wait - I figured the blog. How do you make images? I really would know. MysteryStranger 10:29, July 11, 2011 (UTC)

Chatroom problems[]

Regarding Richthofen, I'd say "in dubio pro reo". If no admin was around, we have no way to verify what has been said and simply going by the word of other users (no matter who they are) would just open up a can of worms I'd rather keep closed (i.e. we do it once, we'd have to keep doing it). I wouldn't block anyone for vandalism if I couldn't verify the vandalism myself either.

Regarding the current technical limitations and quirks, I'm well aware of those but I can't really do anything about it that you couldn't do yourself (i.e. submit the feedback via Special:WikiaLabs or post a comment on w:User blog:Ohmyn0/Chat is Now in Wikia Labs). Regarding permanent chat mods, it's something I've been considering as well but I wanted to wait until the feature's trial period is over. -- Porter21 (talk) 18:07, July 11, 2011 (UTC)

Images[]

Do you wish more of them during daylight? Write to me more about it. MysteryStranger 20:16, July 11, 2011 (UTC)

Thank you.[]

Thanks for giving Mystery Stranger advice, I tried my best for you :). I haven't done much today apart from seek and dole out advice: hopefully tomorrow will be more productive. See you soon, and thanks again. TheGuardianCalligraphyGuardianoftheWastesTag

It seems that way doesn't it :). A grand total of three page edits I believe. I think I'll add one page I was going to and then go to sleep. I thought of a quote to go here, but it slipped my mind as I began writing, so I'll simply say good night Jspoel :) TheGuardianCalligraphyGuardianoftheWastesTag

Block[]

How long was it? I'm currently trying to ban Chat abusers and unban someone from the chat. - RASIC Talk Poll 22:02, July 11, 2011 (UTC)

He needed to change his username, and is due a ban, but not that long, if you can help out that would be much appreciated, also do you know how to unblock people from the chat? - RASIC Talk Poll 22:05, July 11, 2011 (UTC)

Dutch and Reaver Movement page[]

Hello Jspoelstra ;)

Thank you =), I try to understand more a little each day but I have learned only the the basics of the basics for now. Also sorry, with the human page and the Old World Blues content come from the trailer that I had to put, I haven't finished the Reaver Movement page, but I really think that tomorrow will be good =).

Nog een goede avond and see soon! Itachou [~talk~] 22:26, July 11, 2011 (UTC)

Transclusion[]

I take it you know what you are doing with these from looking at your edits, only thing I would advise is to be careful because they are cap sensitive with which sections they transclude. User:AvatarUser talk:Avatar 23:16, July 11, 2011 (UTC)

Okay, sorry Im still new to this but if anybody knows what to do, its you man. Thank you--Zachattak471 01:56, July 12, 2011 (UTC)

Late replies[]

I think it being reported by trusted users is enough for a block. As for separating ban and kick, it's beyond my powers.

As for marked locations, I don't really have a strong preference there. And as for splitting the radiation suit page, yeah, good job, same should be done for other unsplit item pages. As for adding the FO3 unmarked locations, unfortunately there's only 1 category per track possible. And you can add new category tracks via Special:AchievementsCustomize. Ausir(talk) 02:19, July 12, 2011 (UTC)

Yes, you have to type the exact category name in, and it creates a track for that category and that category only. Ausir(talk) 02:44, July 12, 2011 (UTC)

Cazaclaw presents[]

Would you mind not giving them out? We had a kind of exclusivity thing going on where contributors to the concept are given them. --User:Cartman!User talk:Cartman! 18:51, July 12, 2011 (UTC)

Yeah it feels quite maddening to get something you've lovingly created handed out by someone that, no offence, has had nothing to do with them. Imagine if you created something you cherished, and really was proud of, and then someone start handing it out to people without permission. You feel backstabbed and aggravated. I know that was not your intention, and I hope you understand our point of view. Hugs Scar: "Say 'ello to my little friend!" 18:54, July 12, 2011 (UTC)
No offence guys, but this is a wiki. The whole point of a wiki is to share and disseminated, not to create exclusivity etc. If you want to retain control, then a wiki isn't the best platform to do it in. User:AvatarUser talk:Avatar 19:15, July 12, 2011 (UTC)
@Jspoelstra, thanx ;). No offence taken, but Ghost, you've got to see our point in this. We made this, and we're proud of it, and share it with the community, to the joy (and confusion) of hundreds. And if sharing is the main part, shouldn't everyone get a present? An equal amount of presents? No, you have to work for them, just as you have to work for ours. Scar: "Say 'ello to my little friend!" 19:22, July 12, 2011 (UTC)
I'd like to think the point of a wiki is to share knowledge and information, not presents. --User:Cartman!User talk:Cartman! 19:32, July 12, 2011 (UTC)
Scar, Cartman, this isn't about presents, this is about the content of the wiki. While I understand you are proud of what you have made and I see your point, I am simply playing devils advocate here for which you must also see the point. Anything added to the wiki is done so under fair usage, as such it can be used by others. Dont take this as an attack, just stating the facts that a wiki isn't the best platform to develop such a thing if you wish to retain control of your work. By doing so you should expect such things to happen. User:AvatarUser talk:Avatar 19:35, July 12, 2011 (UTC)

Richthofen[]

An admin vote is probably a good idea at this stage, as Ausir and Porter are both conflicted regarding what course of action to take. --User:Cartman!User talk:Cartman! 19:10, July 12, 2011 (UTC)

Actually, I guess I'd agree with Porter after all. Ausir(talk) 19:24, July 12, 2011 (UTC)
Given the severity I would vote for extended block. - RASIC Talk Poll 19:26, July 12, 2011 (UTC)
I have been following this and I am with Porter. Regardless of how much you trust someone, once that door is open it cant be shut. I know there are some non-admins on here I would trust. But, on the other hand, that would be my personal opinion and as non-admins, they haven't been given that trust by the community. Doing this we are essentially becoming a tool for there interpretation (and not our own) of the rules, policies in the situation at hand when asking for a ban. There is a reason we have the whole process for inducting admins, and trusting a non-admin when banning someone is negating that process.
The one question I would ask, is what measure did they take at the time to prevent the abuse. Did they leave messages for admins to join chat and view it for themselves?

We did. Scar: "Say 'ello to my little friend!" 19:31, July 12, 2011 (UTC)

To whom did you leave a message, because I never received one. User:AvatarUser talk:Avatar 19:36, July 12, 2011 (UTC)
Well in the meantime (until they log it), my PC is very rarely off. So I am going to leave my bot account permanently in chat and save the chat every so often. User:AvatarUser talk:Avatar 20:01, July 12, 2011 (UTC)
I think this has been decided already, but for the record, I contacted Gothemasticator, and I believe Scarface11235 got in touch with Cartman!. BILLYOCEAN 06:02, July 13, 2011 (UTC)

When you click the link for the location the sink in the old world blues it takes you to a page that is kinda messed up and confusing. It shows a pic of the character in the add-on called sink.

Harold[]

Hello Jspoelstra ;)

In fact, you wanted to create a page for Bob, the tree of Harold? I think you see that the page is already here: Bob (tree).

If you want to create a separate page for Harold when he was a tree I don't agree. It's always Harold, like he was a human, also like Attis (a super mutant) when he become an FEV mutant, or the Master (a human at first) when he also become a FEV mutant. What do you think my friend?

Yes I see the Ulysse image bug. It's work I done a new image =)! Itachou [~talk~] 14:26, July 13, 2011 (UTC)

Ha ok, no problem my friend ;). Yes good idea, "Harold (FEV mutant)" sound good I think =), since he appeared in many games, it's pretty hard to give a name for him. Itachou [~talk~] 16:25, July 13, 2011 (UTC)

Vault 13 humans[]

I wanted to check with you before I continue but is it alright if I go ahead and remove pure from all of their pages? It would probably prevent people form seeing it and thinking it should go on all other vault pages and such --BattlecattleFontBeware4sig 20:52, July 13, 2011 (UTC)

Fallout 1[]

Been doing a lot of these quest pages: start playing the game today :). When did these badges get introduced? Was i t because of my suggestion to Ausir? TheGuardianCalligraphyGuardianoftheWastesTag.

No I meant the Fallout 1 quest ones. Did Ausir put them in? We were discussing a way to overhaul the Fallout 1 and 2 quests yesterday, and now this is on here :). Fear not, I don't make it my business to decieve :). TheGuardianCalligraphyGuardianoftheWastesTag.
Well it looks like he did at least :). I think it's about time, I'll get rewarded for my edits, and people may start to pay more attention at last. Shame they don't look as good as the others. Thanks for the help/chat. See you soon Jspoel :) TheGuardianCalligraphyGuardianoftheWastesTag.

Do you think you could take a look at the Radscorpion (Fallout) page for me? All the tables are empty and have been like that for a while now, but I don't know any of the stats so I can't do it myself. I thought you were the best person to ask. Thanks. Yes Man default 01:16, July 14, 2011 (UTC)

Radscorpion[]

Hello my friend ;)

Thanks, but not perfect unfortunately, I can't open the proto file of Fallout for now - just read some data that can't complete the template.

For the other from Fallout 2, they come from the proto file of Fallout 2, containing all the data of all critter (character, creature etc.). They are in the master.dat, if you want to extract them, you need a dat extractor (NMA have a lot of this kind of program, like datexplorer) = [1]

Appeal of Conduct[]

Hi there,

I felt the need to leave an appeal of your conduct as a site administrator to the page of Tagaziel. Nothing personal, just think you handle yourself a bit too aggressively.

I agree, would have been a better idea to just give him a talk page warning first. Ausir(talk) 16:47, July 14, 2011 (UTC)
Sorry, but I don't see the differential between a directed insult or a generalise insult that is aimed towards the reader of the sentence (whom ever that may be). Offensive comments regardless of whether directed towards a singular or a group (regardless of the intended target audience), is still offensive. Now I can understand if it was a borderline breach, but to me this is a clear breach of the rules. Although a single day ban can be considered a warning in itself, since the norm is 3 days.

Chat feedback[]

Hi, I got your feedback about the Chat feature; thanks for sending it! Right now, we're trying to gather all the feedback and feature requests, so we can figure out what's important for the next revision. A chat log is definitely an interesting idea, but we haven't pursued it so far because the logistics just seem overwhelming. If chat is running 24/7 for a year and it's fairly active, then you end up with 365 long text files, which aren't that useful. We figure that most people who want to keep a record of a specific chat will end up doing a copy-and-paste onto a wiki page anyway. But if you have some ideas about how that would be helpful, then let me know! We're definitely looking for ways to make the chat better.

We've heard a bunch of people asking for a more nuanced approach to kickbanning, so that's definitely under consideration too. Let me know if you have more thoughts! Thanks -- Danny (talk) 22:24, July 14, 2011 (UTC)

Sorry.[]

Sorry jspoel, I didn't think it would be considered hateful or anything and that was most certainly not it's intent I realise it may be considered nasty just when I saw it it made me angry I suppose because it's the most stunned English Iv'e ever seen and I feel some people just don't appreciate what they have as it's a fact that most English speaking denizens have some of the easiest lives in the world and there are people who would kill to have what we have and some people just assume everything should bow down to them. In this case the language they have been brought up with.

Sorry if this sounds like rammbleing It most probably is as I'm very tired and am now going to bed after a long days work.

I'll remove the comment now.

Sorry for any trouble caused.


Sorry about that jspoelstra I was just angry and tired after work today because of my boss and then when I got in after over time I had to go fix some things at my sisters house so I was angry and fed up and regret posting the comment. If Rainblowrose's takes offence to it I will happily accept any form of punishment you see fit for my comment. Thank you for setting me straight and I promise it won't happen again.

P.S. thanks for wishing me a good night hope you have one also when you go bed anyway.

Huh? That was uncalled for.

  1. I have an equal status to you and I didn't feel I knew enough about the situation, so I forwarded this to Ausir, as the guy who not only runs this wiki, but is paid to solve these kind of problems.

I think you should see something[]

Some way or another, I found myself on the userpage of User:Paul Golden. Now, not only did he insult another user on Ausir's OWB giveaway blog post for no reason at all, his page is something that might concern you. I just don't see why he needs to put profanities there. Also, upon clicking his User talk page, it redirected me to the talk page of a page titled Breaded, which I believe was not a userpage, but a page in the main space. This issue confounds me. Could you take a look into it? It would make more sense to see it rather than me try to explain it. Thanks, man. Yes Man default 10:56, July 16, 2011 (UTC)

Thanks for that. To say the blog comment was insulting was maybe an overstatement, but it certainly was mean and completely unprovoked. I'll show you a picture. Check the recently added images and you'll see the image (I tried putting a link, but I failed badly at it)

Also, while I'm here, is there any policy on those present things some users share? Yes Man default 11:45, July 16, 2011 (UTC)

Yeah, I didn't want to put the image there but I didn't know how else to add it. Sorry about that, I'm still not very good at all the technical stuff. Yes Man default 11:53, July 16, 2011 (UTC)

I'm writing anonymusly because I have a request. My friend has been banned by an administrator named Crazy Sam10. However, I'd like that you speak to him about this. Tell him that he should warn not only my friend, but also other contributors BEFORE banning them. Would you be so kind (leave your reply here)? Did you done everything? I'd like to do this as fast as possible.

Offended by Report[]

Hi there,

I read your post concerning me and my complaint on Tagaziel's page, and as I see you and Tagaziel already have made some conversation over it I don't feel the need to deeply analyze my actions any further. Tagaziel summed up my thoughts already, (Wiki transparency, etc.) and I felt what you did was somewhat uncalled for. Like I said, this is nothing personal and I wish to keep things simple and somewhat friendly - me being a fan of Fallout and therefore unnecesessary stir amongst the Vault would be undesired.

I replied to your link (the one which you showed me that contains the "insult") with a rather sneering reply, I admit, but I thought you might have figured the message out and explained me your behaviour. Which you did not. Therefore, reporting my concerns was the only available solution I had in hand. Whether or not you agree with my procedures, I do not think I have made something gravely wrong by reporting my experiences to the site administrator. I admit having being hasty what comes to judging what I should put on to my talk page, but since I hadn't received a single comment yet, I thought it might stay there - at least for a while. To summarize; I had not received any and all "fanboy rage" as I called it, hence the whole sentence being a cocky remark to the dogmatic style of fanboy culture. No offense inteded here, of course.

Hopefully we are able to figure this out.

With love, --Yliannos 20:59, July 16, 2011 (UTC)

Me again :)[]

Sorry to trouble you Jspoel, but I noticed that alot of the pages in Van Buren have these
but some don't. Should I be adding or removing them on pages? Fear not though I haven't toucked any before asking you, and I shan't either until I recieve a reply :). Nice talking to you, and I hope to hear from you soon. TheGuardianCalligraphyGuardianoftheWastesTag.
Okay then Jspoel, will do :). Thanks for the input, and until next time TheGuardianCalligraphyGuardianoftheWastesTag.

Perk bonus[]

I was looking on the page for the Man Opener and I see that it has the bonuses for the perks Ghoul Ecology and Superior Defender but none of the other weapons have the bonus listed under them. The page for Ghoul Ecology says the damage bonus is for all the enemies in the bugs section but does the superior defender only affect some of the weapons or do you want me to add the perks bonuses to all of the fallout 3 weapon pages. Chief editor 13

Ghoul Ecology I am aware of. Since it is never going to be patched now and does effect all weapons, I would treat the perk as if it does just that and add it to all weapons, this is regardless of whether it is intended to be that way or not. As for Superior Defender, that is a situational perk where certain criteria have to be meet in combat. The bug doesn't actually effect all weapons at all times, the bug is simply related to a false damage stats being shown in the PipBoy, it isn't applied to combat unless actually standing still. So that one should be removed. User:AvatarUser talk:Avatar 17:50, July 17, 2011 (UTC)

Back on-line![]

Howeee! Finally, the ban was removed! I'm writing this because the administrator, Crazy Sam10 has banned me without warning me first. I saw the talk page, saying that he and some of the others have been undoing EVERY edit I made. Of course, that isn't true, as I made some things that STAYED on the pages. I have two questions:

1. What are you going to do with Crazy Sam10?

2. Are my edits bad, at least at first time I edit them?

I'm waiting for your reply. MysteryStranger 16:00, July 17, 2011 (UTC)

Yes, my English is not perfect, but it is okay. However, for the "solider", I need to change that becausew I will "reformate" the BoS characters, as the roles (for example, Knight) need to be put as ranks, while the roles (solider) need to be changed. For the Overseer page, I think it's a bit funny, but I guess seriousness should be first. And, I will speak to Crazy Sam10 when I get a chance. However, some contributors have warned me, but not him. MysteryStranger 17:20, July 17, 2011 (UTC)

Oh - warn the user named "Ridiculously stupid assult puppy" to change his name. Some might find it stupid, if not if offensive.

Jury St. Metro Tunnel Map and Wonderous mole meat[]

I was wondering why you deleted my map with a little note to the position of the mole rat wonder meat section? GhostAvatar wrote its because it belongs on the wonder meat page.. i have a slight issue with this. It is IN the tunnel! Its an entity, a sort of symbiotic relationship, wonder meat is in the tunnels; the tunnels have the wonder meat. It shouldn't matter, some people don't like to have to go through link after link to find an exact location of something when it can be shown right there, right away! Of course it belongs on the wonder meat page but it should be clear on the jury tunnel page. A lot of times a simple "it's on the right all the way down by the tunnel entrance" or whatever is not good enough. What is the BIG deal!? I really, really want to know! Convince me, please! --DrunkenSushi 17:39, July 17, 2011 (UTC)

Capitalizing[]

Sure thing J. I'll keep an eye out for them as well.

Effects[]

Hey J,

iwas wondering if a perk like ghoul ecology would effect the overal damage of an explosion or burn effect and also since bloody mess effects your damage, would it add on 5% damage to the weapon with the +5 damage and the weapons base damage or just the weapons base damage.

Quick note[]

With literally no offence intended, I feel I should tell you that cancelled has two 'L's. You write it with one :). Sorry if this causes you offence, I really don't mean to. See you soon, TheGuardianCalligraphyGuardianoftheWastesTag.

I apologise, Jspoel. Apparently, it is the American spelling, so you are right, and I wrong, once more. I'm sorry for the inconvenience :). TheGuardianCalligraphyGuardianoftheWastesTag.
As I said, I am sorry :). I just didn't realise, even in the USA, it was spelled another way. TheGuardianCalligraphyGuardianoftheWastesTag.
No, I was aware of the policy, and pains me though it does, I try to stick to it, but I was blissfully unaware of that spelling entirely. Thanks Jspoel :).

┌────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘I got to admit, I wasn't even aware of that spelling in the states, seems you do learn something new every day lol. User:AvatarUser talk:Avatar 22:19, July 17, 2011 (UTC)

Are you talking about the page creation templates? And yes I am on most the time still, I just spending most my time on my bot account coding the auto corrections. User:AvatarUser talk:Avatar 23:32, July 17, 2011 (UTC)
I will take a look at them tomorrow, but if you want to have a try, they are all in Category:Article creation templates. When you go to to the template for the respective page, just hit edit and it will be like editing a normal page. User:AvatarUser talk:Avatar 00:02, July 18, 2011 (UTC)

Re: Blog Comment[]

Ok man I understand. I was doing it as a joke and I wasn't actually trolling. I completley understand, it won't happen again. Sorry. --Wiseman of the Wastes 00:05, July 18, 2011 (UTC)

It's no problem, it seems a lot of these incidents are popping up now where blocked users try to display some level of authority over admins or try to cite rules that don't exist. And it was definitely a bad call, I can't even comprehend how he thought that would be a good idea. I'll keep a look out if anything else like this happens. --User:Cartman!User talk:Cartman! 00:32, July 18, 2011 (UTC)
