Brotherhood Outcasts and grammar[]

The anon isn't correct in that edit. The subject of the sentence is the group, which is singular. Saying 'the group are engaged in x activity' is incorrect, so the sentence should read "The Outcasts play a major role in Operation: Anchorage, in which a group of Outcasts in the Outcast Outpost under the command of Protector McGraw is trying to acquire advanced military tools..."

Talk Pages[]

Hey there, besides wanting to see that no-removal rule for myself, I would appreciate being able to delete irrelevant (off-this-wiki subject), insulting/harassing (e.g. "fuck(ing)", "dumbass", "bitch", and a generally nasty tone) posts on my talk page. That argument took place six years ago, involves a community that I left nearly four years ago, and when asked to elaborate on it by a member of this community I never received a reply. I've actually tried to hide the conversation using the Collapsible content template before blanking the page, but no luck there. My point is, this is a matter of appearances now. I don't need someone commenting on my talk page from now onward, only to be greeted by a loony screaming at them through the ages, lol. --NFSreloaded (talk) 18:36, February 17, 2015 (UTC)

Maybe let this one go, its ancient history and doesn't involve us. Agent c (talk) 18:38, February 17, 2015 (UTC)

Yes. Besides, this was a user request, which contains some conflict from something that should've been spoken elsewhere. ☢ Energy X ☣ 18:44, February 17, 2015 (UTC)

I appreciate your input, lads, and kudos for the revert and linking me to the relevant guideline, Richie. I've seen the no-removal rule applied in other communities I frequent and in most cases it was more of an unwritten convention. Good to see you keep an orderly house and thanks again. --NFSreloaded (talk) 21:05, February 17, 2015 (UTC)

Why?[]

Why lock the page for all anons just because of the behavior of one (and one registered user, who could have been the same person anyway)? It makes more sense to talk to the violating user and if need be stop them from editing, instead of making it so no anon can edit the page.

Hi Richie, just wanted to get your opinion on the cut content icons on the Molotov cocktail disambig page. Should I have put them there? I'm not sure. I look forward to hearing back from you. Thanks, -- War Never Changes Bigsamcrew 15:58, March 6, 2015 (UTC)

My Edit[]

Hi,

Can you please tell me why my edit on Hamilton's Hideaway was removed? I'm not complaining, clearly it was a bad edit, but I'd just like to know what I did wrong so I can avoid doing it in future and hopefully make valuable contributions to the wiki.

Thanks, Dan DanPaddyPower (talk) 21:09, May 23, 2015 (UTC)

Vaults[]

I noticed that you reversed my edits regarding the location designations of the vaults. As the vaults were designed before the war, state names should be used. Why did you change this?

I admit to have made a sockpuppet account, and I admit that I was being a dick and and overall, just completely annoying, and I want to say I apologize for my behavior.

Checkueser[]

The IP adress belongs to that user. Thought that note on the protectron page wasn't that bad though. In Fallout 3 and FNV they clearly had a different (standard) color. It would be something to note that standard protectrons in this game have a different basic color. Jspoel Speech Jspoel 11:42, June 8, 2015 (UTC)

Police car[]

Sorry about that, it was a mistake on my part. When I looked at your edit, my brain somehow took it as the opposite, and thought that you were adding that information about the FNV car, rather than removing it. User ayyyy  OfficialLolGuy  Talk  Blog  14:50, June 10, 2015 (UTC)

KICK FOR ADEQUATE REASON

As the above suggests, don't kick me from chat for telling my fellow chatters to stay on topic. I was only being a good Samaritan. This is why I hate wikia and its format, people have no sense of reason. Whatever, respond angrily or something, whatever keeps your insulin from dropping too low.

Lincoln's repeater[]

I am not sure it's the Lincoln's repeater. It was the only image left in the image overview Digital provided. The weapon that was left on the Fallout Shelter page without image was the repeater so I added the two together. I was going to take a closer look at it later on tonight. It is possible that Fallout Shelter has a "This Machine" weapon, and the repeater uses the hunting rifle image. Probably the case. Jspoel Speech Jspoel 20:41, June 21, 2015 (UTC)

I can explain that. It's because most of the users on Nukapedia don't have any IOS phone or tablet. We are depending of videos and players to add it ultil it be released for Android. Lincoln Speak! 20:51, June 21, 2015 (UTC)
Has to be the lever-action rifle image now I take a better look at it. The Fallout 3 version has lever-action and the only Shelter image having that is the lever-action rifle. Jspoel Speech Jspoel 20:53, June 21, 2015 (UTC)

Wild Bill's Sidearm[]

We don't need Wild Bill's sidearm. Really. It'd be Wild Bill's Sidearm by the way. With your disambiguation, you get three search results, while if you redirect Wild Bill's Sidearm to Wild Bill's Sidearm (Fallout 3) you only get 2 search results, which limits the choice and is more direct. Jspoel Speech Jspoel 16:30, June 30, 2015 (UTC)

Wild Bill's Sidearm (Fallout Shelter) also quickly appears in the search suggestion. So you can click on that, no problem. We don't need the disambiguation. It's clutter. Jspoel Speech Jspoel 16:41, June 30, 2015 (UTC)

What should I do?[]

I get it, you make edits and risk them being reverted. I'm not offended, I just don't understand in this instant my edit was reverted. I've decided to take an more active approached to this wikia.

I noticed that the the Tesla-Beaton Prototype was written as Tesla-Beaton prototype, and not Tesla-Beaton Prototype in much article. Since it's written in the game as Tesla-Beaton Prototype in the game, that's what I corrected it too.

I came straight to you instead of that user because I'm new to this particular wikia and I'm not quite sure how to approach this with other user. Thank you for reading this and your eventual reply.

You reverted one of my edits in Dr. O's page. Muggy himself said (or claims) Dr. O was jealous of Robert House's securitrons. I just finished the DLC quest and I even recorded the conversation to which I can upload for proof if needed.

Hey richie please get on chat when you can to help mediate something OnionRings (talk) 16:36, July 20, 2015 (UTC)

User Conflict[]

Back in November, you rightfully decided to step in as a mediator for the conflict seen between me and the Agent c. This can be seen with this quote:

Both you and Agent c have been in a conflict and this needs to stop. You have both left messages on each others talk pages to the effect of being done talking to the other and I suggest you adhere to that.— Richie9999 (talk) 02:27, November 24, 2014 (UTC)

I agreed with the principle, but I ultimately disagreed with my eventual ban in the conflict, as I was not the only one at fault in what you had already deduced as a conflict between two users. But I grew from that incident, and since then, I have been doing my best to remain neutral in my interactions with Agent c, even though, at times, I have to bite my tongue. Hard.

However, this same courtesy has not been extended to me in return, for quite some time now. Since your mediation, my talk-page has received additional bad faith comments and assumptions towards my character, and now, I am coming to you, because his conflict towards me is currently seeking to derail a forum that I recently started, that embraces what should be fun and collaboration.

I have remained as neutral as possible, and I have attempted to be as respectful as possible. But as seen here, not only is he making assumptions that he cannot back up, but he is also preaching prejudice, is making up information (such as by saying that I had adhered to a bureaucratic decision only, which I most certainly did not), has outright lied (such as him saying that a user's talk-page can only be used in emergencies, which can easily be checked and verified as false), and is currently talking down to reputable users of this wiki that have dedicated years of their life to the betterment of this wiki. His beef with me and Tag I understand; but frankly, I am disgusted that this attitude is also being extended to Kastera, who has been, and still is a loyal member of Nukapedia and its sister wikis/affiliates.

I am asking for you to please look into this matter. I have been made so tired over the past couple of years, because a single user has been hounding me over almost everything I do - both on and off of the wiki. I have put in a good faith effort to remain civil with this user, and in return, I have essentially had my face spit upon.

I am sorry to have to had send you this message - I prefer dealing with issues on my own. But apparently, this is not an issue I can resolve on my own, and so I am now asking for you to step in. Thanks for your time and consideration. User:Sarkhan the Sojourner 19:26, August 6, 2015 (UTC)

I appreciate it. I just want to get back to what I love - contributing to the wikis that I am a part of, instead of consistently having to defend myself. Have a good day at work, and I will be looking forward to your further mediation. User:Sarkhan the Sojourner 19:31, August 6, 2015 (UTC)

I have not derailed the forum. I have however questioned a vote and the process, which not only am I entitled to do, its my job.

My posts have been entirely on topic and have not discussed Leon's character at all. Although Leon and I have had conflicts in the past, it would be remiss of me in following out my duty to not do so simply because he is involved.

I have not said a word about Kastera. However, I do admit to be being mistaken about Kastea's level of participation here.

I have not "spat on" Leon's face. I have simply asked questions and raised points; I have also indicated that a non member of this community cannot be a part of community consensus. I have even suggested that he can address my concern by placing comments by non members of this community in a different section.

I am actually holding my tounge by not offering a theory as to why Leon has decided to take this track, nor offering a narrative of them.

My responses and points have been straight and factual, and is up to Leon if he wants to address the points within. A previous user conflict however does not preclude one of the participants asking questions and acting in good faith within the forum, and doing their job as an administrator. Agent c (talk) 19:35, August 6, 2015 (UTC)

I do not plan on making a huge discussion on your talk-page, Richie. I am just going to use this chance to call out what, exactly, I have had a problem with, and why that problem exists, instead of those problems being weaseled out of. After this comment, I will patiently await your mediation:
  1. "Why are people who have chosen to disassociate themselves attempting to fashion what I can only describe as a faux community consensus?"
  • As can be seen by this comment, in which only 3 users, with the sole exception of Chad, had made their opinions known, Chad was not referring to a single "...person," but instead, to "...people..." - In a plural sense, Chad was, indeed, referring to more than one person.
  1. "My posts have been entirely on topic and have not discussed Leon's character at all."
  • When I was speaking of him making assumptions towards my character, I was referring to his talk-page messages to me. You will notice that I made mention of that before getting into the forum conflict.
  1. "Tagaziel has completely dissasociated himself with us, refuses to talk to us about interwiki issues, and his profile says its only in use for emergencies."
  • This is an outright falsehood. On his user-pages on both The Vault and on Nukapedia, you can personally check yourself, and can verify that nowhere is this ever said. Not only is he participating in an interwiki matter right now, but if you check through his talk-page histories, you will see that nowhere has he ever made it where he could only be contacted in emergencies, unless he was away from the wiki for a short period of time. And even then, I do not believe he has ever had that statement on his talk-page(s).
  1. "This is about respect for us. He isn't a part of this community, he chose to estrange himself from it."
  • Chad does not get to make this decision. While Tagaziel chose to go to The Vault, he is within his full rights to return to Nukapedia whenever he wants. Chad does not rule this wiki, and he does not get to dictate who and who is not a part of our community.
  1. "I also have reason to believe he is employed in some way by curse. He was described by a developer working on Shadowrun Hong Kong as "Our man at curse"."
  • Not only is this a huge assumption, but if it turns out to be true, Chad just broke our policies by revealing personal information about another user. Regardless of our conflict, this one needs to be seriously looked into.
  1. "you pledged to accept the bureaucrats decision on it (which you have reneged on)"
  • This is also outright false. I insist on a quote, because I know for a fact that the quote does not exist. I am absolutely tired of having words put into my mouth. I only went to the bureaucrats for a preliminary opinion. Nothing else, and nothing more.

Those are the relevant points for the forum conflict. However, I am also willing to point out the issues over my talk-page(s), as they ought to be pointed out, too. I will leave that at your discretion. User:Sarkhan the Sojourner 19:52, August 6, 2015

I wont be addressing most of the points because I have no desire to turn this into an actual user conflict. However, I cannot let the following stains on my character survive unchallenged.

This is an outright falsehood.

Tagaziel has, as Leon conceeds, indicated his profile here is for emergency use only. He has refused contact when discussing issues of plagarism in the past, and when a user this week attempted to contact him on his talk page over there found it protected. When attempted to be contacted via other users he refused contact.

He is of course welcome to return. Until he actually participates as a member of this community however he cannot be described as one.

Not only is this a huge assumption, but if it turns out to be true, Chad just broke our policies by revealing personal information about another user.

Public information is not personal private information. If Tagaziel has issues with him being associated with curse, his correct place of Redress is with Aidan and the other staff at Hairbrained Schemes LLC who published this.

If quoting a publicly available piece of information is "personal information", every user on this wiki is guilty of the same by using each others name.


Agent c (talk) 20:12, August 6, 2015 (UTC)

  1. I conceded to nothing on that point. Once again, I insist on a quote. He also did not refuse comment - he specifically asked me to act in his place as an emissary, because of a personal reason that I am not going to get into on here, and because he was preparing to go to GamesCom 2015.
  2. What a huge leap - a slight mention that Tag is someone that works with the Gamepedia wikis, and suddenly he is chums with Curse's innermost circle. I work for Wikia. I work for Gamepedia. Hell, I even put the fact that I work for wikis, on my resume, as it looks damn good on it. User:Sarkhan the Sojourner 20:20, August 6, 2015 (UTC)

As long as the people on the forum are no longer being demeaned, and the accusations come to a stop, I will be happy. This forum is not a chance for a bureaucrat with a grudge, to start taking potshots. We specifically created this competition, so that everyone could have fun.

Constructive critique, I am fine with, as seen in my responses to both J and Paladin. So hopefully, as the competition progresses, any additional critique will continue to be constructive - that is all I ask for. User:Sarkhan the Sojourner 22:40, August 6, 2015 (UTC)

Weapon/Outfits IDs (Fallout shelter)[]

Hello Richie9999, sorry if here is not the right place to do this, but maybe you can help me anyway. Well ... it's more a suggestion that a question. The thing is, how Fallout Shelter has come also to Android, there were a lot of people who managed read the game datas and even hack the Save Games. So for the inclusion of a weapon or outfit in FOS Saves there is necessary to inform the weapon/outfit ID. The ID who is needed to be informed is in text, so the proto parameter don't want handle it. Anyway, my suggestion at all is to add a specific ID Parameter to handle the FOS IDs. Or maybe there is still a parameter, if it is, maybe could you tell me what is the parameter?

Portable infoboxes[]

Heya :) Just stopping by to see if you have any thoughts on the Portable infobox project that Shining-Armor started up a little while ago. Because of Fallout's obvious importance to Wikia, particularly as we approach the launch of Fallout 4, we'd like to make sure that all your infoboxes are as accessible by mobile devices as is possible. Please drop by the forum as soon as you can and give your views. And of course my user talk page is always open to whatever comments — even rude ones — that you'd like to make!

Capital Wasteland super mutant conflict[]

No. I mean comming from your point of view it makes sense. I mean, I'll admit I forgot about Talon Company. So, I see no issue with the change.

Also, change of subject, I was wondering if we could add a "Mariposa super mutant conflict/crisis" from Fallout 1. That was much a major battle as the Capital Wasteland conflict (as well as other conflicts that are missing like the Brotherhood-Viper War or the 2241 Enclave conflict from Fallout 2. I could make the event infobox and leave the rest to everyone else as well as other edits. I wanted to let you know first before I begin. --Matthew Paul (talk) 05:06, October 31, 2015 (UTC)

Ok, so first off; how was my post on the tank article not relevant?

Second off, is speculation not allowed on this Wiki? I had made an edit to the Assaultron article.

Third, to get it out of the way; the fact that you haven't found an Assaultron without a female personality isn't really a good reason.

Just had some concerns. Merry Christmas!--TheRoyalNate (talk) 04:32, December 26, 2015 (UTC)

The ban you gave earlier[]

Regarding the user:TheModernSoviet, upon seeing their contributions I don't think they did that "blanking" on purpose if you could just recheck his/her past edits, must be a misunderstanding. My theory is that they planned to copy their old edit to the new ones but instead accidentally copy pasted the entire previous revision. Maybe if we could let him/her explanation the situation would let us know the reason as to why, as I don't really think they did it on purpose. --吉野Cassie ~可愛いの猫 13:40, May 4, 2016 (UTC)

He's a Demon[]

I've listened to the song at least 100 times, it sounds more like "He'll call me late at nine." but according to every single Lyrics site it says "He'll call me late at night." Just take 5 minutes to check up on it. Maybe they all got it wrong, or maybe we're not hearing it right. Rebel427 (talk) 20:21, May 1, 2017 (UTC)

There's a lot more sites as well, as I said I was only going off the research that I did before undoing the edit. I'm pretty sure all of them just copied the lyrics from the first site that had the them. Wasn't trying to be a rebel or argumentative about it. I apologize if I came across as such. Rebel427 (talk) 03:14, May 2, 2017 (UTC)

I also listened to the song on loop, I don't hear Late at Night either. I don't make edits unless I've done research or have experienced it myself. It's sad that all of those websites are wrong though. Thanks for the input. Rebel427 (talk) 03:27, May 2, 2017 (UTC)

(Easier to keep conversation in one place) Well at least we know we have the correct lyrics, as a bonus they also show up very high in the search engine too. Bonus points to us for showing the internet up on this one imo. Sakaratte - Talk to the cat 03:37, May 2, 2017 (UTC)

Sensor Module Apology[]

Dear, Richie9999 To start off with, I am so sorry that I kept on adding new text to the "Sensor module" On the Fallout 4 wiki. I am new here so I barely saw your message. I deeply regret what happened and it will not happen again, anyways sorry If I made you think I was a stubborn mule keeping on posting that text. I also didn't mean to start a edit war with Great Mara. I now know what not and what to do. Thanks for pointing that out though! :)

Philly[]

Hello Mr. Richie9999, I have just been notified that you took down my page. The reason for no mod/fan fiction. I understand that you would like to keep this wiki clean of all un cannon sources, and from what I've seen on your profile page you have been doing a great job. I use this site often to get lore and the facts right for stories I create, so I do thank you for making sure the data on here is correct and well written.

I started this project on Philly for my little brother, and maybe the hopes of trying to make it into something a little bit bigger later on. I would appreciate if you would allow me to continue my work with Philly. Thank you again for you hard work, and your consideration. --Jonyeck1 (talk) 03:11, May 6, 2017 (UTC)

Machines are still randomly generated. They can generate Nuka-Cola, Nuka-Cherry, Quantum and empty bottles and have them set in the compartment of the machine.

Regarding your offer[]

I have to respectfully decline. I share Ulaume's feeling with respect to how poorly the entire situation was handled, and if this wiki isn't going to respect facts over opinions, and if a moderator has the right to disregard votes that go against the singular vote of his friend, I have no inclination in participating at all.

Please see User blog:The Gunny/Admin talk - Discussions moderation for a few site wide changes wikia has made as well as some details on discussions moderating. I will be opening a discussions topic in the next day or so with the intent to better introduce all of our site moderation team to the users there (most of them have no idea who most of us are). When that topic goes live, I will leave another talk page message for you asking that you navigate to the topic to introduce yourself and interact a bit with users there. I feel this is very important and a problem we need to fix. The Gunny  UserGunny chevrons 16:43, July 2, 2017 (UTC)

I plan on making that discussions topic tomorrow finally, around noonish my time. I plan on introducing the rest of the admin/mod team who the discussions users don't know very well. I am going to do it in a kinda AMA format, and I'll start by explaining who I am and what I do here. I would really appreciate it if any admins/mods who don't currently spend a lot of time there to chime in. I really feel this is important.  The Gunny  UserGunny chevrons 01:32, July 8, 2017 (UTC)

Hey Richie, we have the moderators choice in motion for this month, I've suggested the others hoard them all in one place so we I know what is on the list, I know they are using notepads etc to do it, but would prefer they keep them here so we can look through nice and easy. If you spot anything just chuck it in, means we have to spend less time at the end of the month finding everything and discussing it. I'm thinking we select a top 5 and announce a winner, will encourage people more to get involved. Sakaratte - Talk to the catmin 09:22, August 7, 2017 (UTC)

NV engine bugs[]

A while back I added to the New Vegas bugs page two bugs relating to weapons with the 'Ignores DR/DT' effect and explosive weapon impact damage - the latter has already been mentioned on the NV missile launcher page.

As for the Ignores DR/DT bug, the real proof is by looking at the JIP/LN NVSE plugin - the guy maintaining that NVSE plugin actually fixed both of the aforementioned bugs (check version 50.80 under the changelog). If you have the PC version of New Vegas try installing it, there's a huge difference in how the ripper and chainsaw perform against targets.

You can also test the explosive weapon impact fix with a fat man - load it with a timed nuke, try scoring a direct hit on something before it explodes - the fat man should do 400 impact damage, but if you don't have the JIP plugin installed it won't deal any impact damage at all. --ffs (talk) 10:28, August 31, 2017 (UTC)

Wikia's forced addition of videos to the wiki[]

Hello, This is a message to all listed active members of the leadership team, so please accept my apologies if this seems a little impersonal.

As you may be aware, Wikia/Fandom have added a number of videos to pages on the wiki that they have self authored. Although the consensus view so far seems to be that these are not to our standards, I encourage you to view these for yourself and make up your own mind.

You can find a link to all the videos, and a petition I would like you to consider here. If you believe that these videos do not meet our standards, detract from the wiki, and should be removed, I encourage you to vote yes on this petition. You are of course welcome to vote no if you do not believe this is the case.

Thank you for your consideration. Agent c (talk) 21:13, September 7, 2017 (UTC)

Video Negotiated Settlement[]

Thank you very much for your vote on the petition. We have had talks with Wikia/Fandom, and a settlement has been proposed. I encourage you to review it and have your say here. Agent c (talk) 20:34, September 8, 2017 (UTC)

All Hands Meeting[]

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Although everyone is welcome in our social space (The-Common-Room), only persons who meet the above criteria will be admitted to The-Town-Hall (where the meeting will be located). You may be asked to verify your account before this access is granted. Agent c (talk) 21:50, September 11, 2017 (UTC)

Theories[]

I did mention Banfield's prejudice and bias. However, my problem was in Paladin117 claiming Banfield admitted his theory was due to the prejudice and bias. Banfield never made any such admission about his theory. While he does say earlier he fears ghouls and believes in discrimination, using it to claim he "admits his theory is due to prejudice" due to it is baseless. He believes ghouls carry communicable diseases too. MatthewOne (talk) 01:59, June 21, 2018 (UTC)

I started the discussion at Feral ghoul about Paladin117's claims regarding Banfield admitting his theory is based on prejudice. You are mistaking in thinking that I'm trying to argue for the theory to be included. That is not my intent. My intent was only Paladin117's edit. Read my first comment which states I'm only talking about Paladin117's unverified assertion: (https://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Talk:Feral_ghoul?diff=2866551&oldid=2866543)
Everything else except Paladin117's edit should be discussed in a separate section. MatthewOne (talk) 03:21, June 24, 2018 (UTC)
The whole comment was about Paladin117's edit. That was my only purpose. I'm not lying. I even said what it was about in the opening sentence. MatthewOne (talk) 07:24, June 24, 2018 (UTC)
Also the first one to revert was me who reverted Paladin117's claims. Our dispute was actually about Paladin117's claims. I am not disputing whether the theory should be removed. MatthewOne (talk) 07:26, June 24, 2018 (UTC)
I did try to improve the article. But it doesn't make sense to put another dispute in an another dispute. Regardless, if you want to discuss I can't stop you. MatthewOne (talk) 10:49, June 24, 2018 (UTC)

Nukapedia and Fandom/Wikia talks[]

Hi,

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

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

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

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

User issues today[]

Hi Richie,

I am loath to escalate a drama but some statements have been said on the forum and in discord today that we feel we need to draw to your attention.

After the vote became clear I let you know what our intentions were vis a vie exodus. As agreed in community vote last year, the Exodus platform is available to extend the wiki into areas that cannot/will not support, such as the Pip View project. The Pip View project doesn’t link to anywhere but Nuakpedia, and is intended to be something a Nukapedia visitor would pop into, and then pop back into the main wiki, as we would intend any future project in this vein.

The only remaining elements of “Exodus” is the Interactive/Simtek wiki (Where PipView lives), and the nukapedia email addresses. The mirror wiki and coordinating wiki have been removed permanently, and have been gone for some time. There is no intention at this stage to add more “Exodus” sites, although if there are wiki projects that cannot be accommodated on Wikia, they are welcome to be hosted through Interactive.

As you know we respect the community’s vote not to move/fork/etc. As we have said, we’ve moved on to other projects, and when we get away from some of the drama that seems to follow certain people, we are actually enjoying getting some productive work done in the other projects that we’re working on under the umbrella of a private company we both operate.

That company continues to operate Interactive.nukapedia.wiki for and on behalf of the Nukapedia community. We hope this relationship can continue.

That said. We do take exception to the behaviour of Leon in Forums and discord and to a lesser extent Silent in discord today, to the point where we feel we need to make our concerns officially known in a formal complaint.

When we approached with a suggestion with some sort of relationship or link to a directory of guilds that we are considering developing (outside of the Exodus system) this was met with accusations that we were somehow trying to circumvent the rules, or force an affiliation.

As This was the initial conversation about such an issue here and we simply made an offer to work with the wiki, Claiming that we were “Circumventing process” by actually making a suggestion in the first stage of the decision making process on Nukapedia is completely nonsensical. That such a suggestion might be seen as forcing an affiliation is equally non sensical. Given Leon’s history on the wiki, particularly with affiliated sites, we struggle to see how this could be a good faith misunderstanding.

If we go ahead with the project, we’re actually looking at a number of non-exclusive links we can make with the wider Fallout community, we hope Nukapedia can be part of that, if it chooses to be. If not, thats fine too.

That Leon would then follow this up with a demand for transparency (when in making the suggestion at a very early stage we were being completely transparent) and some sort of accusation about some secret cabal of admins making decisions for and on behalf of the wiki is alarmist, and again, we struggle to see how he can make these in good faith.

That there would then be suggestions in Discord that we are somehow trying to take over the wiki, or force exodus through this unrelated project we find particularly distasteful. We made an offer, in good faith, to link to a proposed project (if it is completed) that might solve a problem the wiki is having, and answered some good faith questions about it. Nothing more. I remind you neither of us voted for Exodus to take on Nukapedia, and suggested that UESP would be a better partner.

If we wanted to “Take Over” the wiki, we’d simply reboot the mirror of Nukapedia, update it, and start approaching editors directly, as we are legally entitled to do. The fact that you haven’t received an invitation I hope should help convince you that we’re not doing that… and if we were it would hardly be a secret.

We know that Leon does not speak in any sort of official capacity for the wiki; and that his actions and seemingly manufactured outrage stand in contrast to his repeated claims to have no personal interest/non involvement in the wiki.

However, we cannot stand for repeated accusations of bad faith on our part. We made a good faith offer; the offer was twisted out of any sense of reality from what the offer was and we were accused of bad faith and rule circumvention, without any sort of official challenge

We would like to retain our relationship with Nukapedia, but if doing so is going to invite back the drama that we were trying to escape, then we may have to revisit our plans to continue to host interactive.

I hope that you see the value in our offer to host non Wikia compatible content, and like me look forward to the imminent availability of PipView. However if it no longer serves Nukapedia a purpose please let us know.

-Agent C and Sakaratte.

High Ground Article Conflict[]

Hello Richie,

I want to ask you to help resolve a conflict with Patroller Great Mara on the High Ground article. The disagreement stems from whether or not the character P.A.M. should be referred to on the page as "it" or "she/her."

I have made the point that P.A.M., as well as all other robot characters, are addressed in accordance to their implied genders throughout the wiki as well as in the game itself. Additionally, their respective articles make use of gender-specific pronouns, rather than "it," as the noted Patroller has insisted on using for this page in particular.

I would appreciate your opinion on this matter, and if I have performed any misconduct myself, please let me know. --Tingz0r (talk) 17:57, September 17, 2018 (UTC)

/*An experiment I did*/[]

Hey Richie9999. I recently edited an article (specifically the Glowing Sea) and reported an experiment that I just did concerning the rad levels with specific apparel. So, I just wanted to check if that's ok.

Kind regards,

On the events that to led to my Discord ban, a questioning and a defence[]

Salutations, Rich

As you'll well aware, I was banned from the Discord server, I'd like to make a solid defence on why that ban was ludicrous, incoherent to server rules and poorly executed. First, let's give it a look on the curse of events that led to the ban itself:

  • On the Editing Bullpen, L84TEA and LovelyGaslight are talking about Gas disappearing, Gas says he had the room muted.
  • I make a joke saying that's something a /d user would do, using the word "degenerate", if I did insulted someone on that joke, it was Gas, and he took no offence, remembering that I got banned for insulting gas in the past.
  • Gas also makes a /d joke, the conversation moves on as it was just a joke.
  • One hour and a half-ish after that happened, the user Saxheel calls Cassie to check the joke I made, and my joke only, not Gas' for also making a /d joke. I was the only one to receive an warning for Cass.
  • Gas and I start to question on why the reason of the warning because the joke was made hours before and no one complained or warned, Sax had no purpose on doing that since it was whining and necroposting, furthermore he never complained about /d jokes before, and as someone who's in the server for almost three years, you'll se more /d jokes than any other jokes on that server and none of them seemed to bother him until that point.
  • The argument moves from the bullpen to the common room on Cass' request, it lasts for a few minutes until everyone starts speaking about Dead Island, the argument is over.
  • More than two hours after the original joke and almost an hour after the first argument that was now over, Bleep pings me on the Editorial Bullpen to issue me an warning, I say that it was kinda late because the argument was done, Bleep agrees it was too late but insists on warning anyway.
  • I, again, start to question the reasons of the warning and Bleep says to move over to the Common Room, in response I say no because that argument should be over.
  • Bleep, although I request to end that argument there, moves to the Common Room, disrespecting a clear Rule 9 request and necroposting once more.
  • I question again the reason of the warning, Bleep says he's gonna ban me if I question again, which is pretty much authoritarian and shows how some users who claim to be bringing positive changes to the community are threatening bans because an user tried to defend himself.
  • I ask if /d jokes are now banned, I ask if people talking about killing commies is banned too now, since talk about the extermination of a group based on political opinions is far worse than making a joke about a discussion board, Bleep's response is a ban threat.
  • I make a joke on White Genocide, Bleep bans me and says I was talking about the Holodomor, which I never said it was fake or it didn't happened, all I said it was used by nazis as propaganda, which, is also an historical fact.

Now let's go trough the problems with the reasons why I got banned, according to Bleep himself:

Repeat flamebaiting, prolonged instigation of toxic environment, lack of self awareness, blatant disrespect of historically acknowledged genocides, insulting users. You've had far too many chances, and frankly, I'm tired of it. Permanent ban.
  1. Flamebaiting: The definition of flamebaiting is: "a message posted to a public Internet discussion group, such as a forum, newsgroup or mailing list, with the intent of provoking", which it wasn't my intent, it was a /d user joke, even /d users make /d jokes and no one got banned over it in almost three years of Discord Server, there's no rules against making jokes against /d, I also would like to remember that I defended /d users many times when Gunny showed up defending to just terminate /d completely. Not to mention that I already made regular wiki jokes and no one got upset about it.
  2. Prolonged instigation of toxic environment: this is completely bollocks, Sax brought it up an hour and a half after the joke, when the conversation was way passed that message. When Bleep brought it up again I asked to end that argument and not move over to the Common Room, Bleep insisted and moved to the Common Room, interrupting the conversation that was happening between users to issue an already given warning. At some point on that conversation I even say I was gonna be blamed for starting drama, even though I was the one asking for Bleep to stop.
  3. Lack of self awareness: If someone lacks self awareness is Bleep, every violation he pointed to justify my ban was violated by himself, furthermore, where in the rules says "You can't have lack of self awareness", we're just making up rules so we can ban people we don't like now?
  4. Blatant disrespect of historically acknowledged genocides: If Bleep thinks White Genocide is historically acknowledged he should study History a little bit more.
  5. Insulting users: once again, I did not insulted any users, if someone had the right to feel insulted that was Gas, not Sax, and Gas took no offence and joked about it as well.

Now let's move over to the message Bleep left on my talk page:

The ban was implemented as a result of a long term pattern of behavior, after discussing with chat and administrative staff in the staff channel on the discord.

This is truly interesting because staff on the discord usually say past behavior is irrelevant when checking for rule violation, I'd like to know which behavior is that since I was inactive for almost two weeks before that ban happened, and before being inactive I was not in Nukapedia, so the reason for my ban as long term pattern behavior is a first on Nukapedia previously "past doesn't matter" golden rule that was used many times to justify the permanence of a few users on chat, including some that are now banned for disrupting the chat and trolling. Bleep was the one who resurrected a dead argument, brought to the common room and invented rules to ban me, even though all I did was defend myself after asking to stop the argument because an issue was already warned by a mod that's far more chat active than Bleep.

Having said that, I truly hope you can revise and check the conversation that day. I'm not gonna lie that I am very much disappointed with Nukapedia, admins that barely speak can just show up to resurrect dead arguments and invent rules to ban people, an admin that only edits on the wiki to make forum posts "to change things" in order to gather popularity and try to revert his overall irrelevance to the chat or to the wiki, an irrelevance that resulted in the past on a vote to remove said admin's rights for inactivity.

Hope the situation is evaluated and sorted out by more efficient and chat active staff,

Folks[]

Cheers Richie. Yeah, you’re right about people being abrasive but I feel the same way when people treat my edits without any respect. I’ll take everything you’ve said into absolute consideration. I’m a pretty nice guy to talk too, even though I have Dwarfism (and other complex conditions) and well, Dwarves are renown for their destructive criticism. I’m excellent at researching into everything but I tend to forget how people will treat my research in general terms. I suppose it’s what Great Mara said “grain of salt” —- take it lightly and treat it as such.

I hope to improve my behaviour on here and elsewhere but I’m extremely useful if a certain task requires my experience and abilities.

I’m actually wanting to avoid edit wars altogether but talking it out is something I tend to avoid as to avoid conflict altogether. I’ll bare it mind that a good conversation is always useful, even with a talkative folk such as myself.

I hope you have a pleasant day or evening wherever you are in the world (morning where I am).

Holotapes vs Terminal Entries[]

The confusion seems to be hardware vs software. I see the content as text files and computer programs, with any computer able to read it, whether it is an actual terminal or a PIP-Boy. For example the holotape is the thumbdrive and the content is the entries/programs. In regards to adding the category back I'm not going to do so.--Ant2242 (talk) 01:16, May 26, 2020 (UTC)

Hi Richie

I don't know which bureaucrat to send this to so I'm sending all three the same message expecting that at least one of you will action it. Please remove my content mod rights as I will not be needing them anymore.

Rights Request[]

I'm requesting to be made a patroller. I have 842 article edits, have been here forever, and am confident in my editing abilities and as well as my ability to help others as needed. The Dyre Wolf (talk) 05:56, September 1, 2020 (UTC)

Thank you! Also, congrats on that counter up top ticking over 10,000. Regardless of what all went into that number, 10k is a lot of anything.The Dyre Wolf (talk) 02:08, September 2, 2020 (UTC)

Hey, Richie

I'd like to officially sponsor the user CamelChip for consideration regarding Patroller rights. They are a hard-working and diligent editor, and I feel like they'd be a perfect fit for the role. Don't really have much more to add onto that - their editing contributions more than speak for themselves. 寧靜 Fox 18:15, September 11, 2020 (UTC)

Call to Action[]

There have been quite a few sweeping changes to the wiki lately, and now that the Unified Community Platform has come to fruition here, it's more important than ever for our leadership to get together and inspire innovative changes for the next generation of wiki editors/readers.

As someone who is somewhat inactive myself, I understand how life gets in the way, and I'll fully understand if many of you are unable to commit, but I'd still like to try my best to appeal to you all in getting involved in a few of our currently active projects; especially so since rights-users participating in our discussions/votes are at an all-time low, and many internal decisions are having to be made between a select few users, which is bad for building consensus on important matters.

As such, I would like to ask for you all to look into two of our most important projects right now, as it would mean a lot to me and the wiki if as many people as possible got directly involved in helping shape our future:

  1. The Vault Academy is a program for the training and acclimation of new and even veteran users, training them on how to get involved in the various facets of the wiki, as well as helping them build bonds with their fellow users. The program has kicked off in a big way, and we are in desperate need of more rights-users to sign on as mentors, as we're having to share multiple mentees between each mentor. If you're looking to leave your mark on the wiki, then signing onto TVA program will be your way of doing so.
  2. As a minor update, we now have a new plagiarism point of contact. Should you suspect plagiarized content is at play, please get into point with the user FDekker who will be the initial handler of all such cases going forward.
  3. We have an upcoming meeting of the minds coming up on the 20th of this month, and we need people to come forth and pitch their ideas for adapting to the recent UCP changes, and to possibly adopt some of the ideas that our new datamining friends have been pitching to us.

Thanks for your consideration, and I do hope to hear back from you all! Even if it is just some of you dropping by to check the place out and say a quick hello. 寧靜 Fox 14:07, 13 November 2020 (UTC)

Resigning bureaucrat status[]

After a long talk with Kate, I've decided to resign my bureaucrat status and remain as simply wiki manager and regular admin. She pointed out that this generates a potential conflict of interest, and we'll be discussing other means to move forward and making sure our relations go in the right way.

This doesn't mean I'm going away, don't worry, I'll always be on hand to break wiki configuration. ;) Тагазиэль 18:31, 16 April 2021 (UTC)

Me and DayteBayte clarification[]

Fully understand the confusion there. User:Daytebayte and myself work at the same place and are either swapping computers (yay hotdesking) or posting from the same network (and thus the same external-facing IP). Hope that helps Darthfish (talk) 01:39, 7 May 2021 (UTC)

Alex6122[]

Giving those rights was not meant to be an official content mod user right handout. It's sort of an upgraded interwiki status, with some more options than just interwiki who can deal with deletions over here that affect on the Russian wiki. He can't apply for admin with it. I wouldn't hand them out to just any Russian wiki user with some status over there. I know him from back when I started out at the end of 2010, he's walked the same path, became bureaucrat. So he's a very trusted and veteran user. I would say he can be considered an ambassador from the Russian sister wiki, with me being the American ambassador over there (I got the same rights there). It felt as a natural move to me yesterday. Though I can understand some reactions to it. Jspoel Speech Jspoel 11:49, 16 June 2021 (UTC)

I'm sensing there's not enough community support for a direct promotion. I think I'll propose an interwiki+ (content mod rights) request then to Alex, if he's interested. Jspoel Speech Jspoel 20:32, 16 June 2021 (UTC)
