Mod proposal
Edit
Hey Gunny. I've thrown my proposal together and it can be viewed here. Let me know if you have anything you'd like to add/subtract.
nihil novi sub sole 01:29, April 4, 2013 (UTC)
- I can live with conditional votes, as long as they don't get too complicated. There is already a mandatory condition for the second vote, and as long as everybody follows that I think it'll be fine. I'll post a link to the rough proposal for Js and get his opinion on it before I move forward.

Grandeur
Edit
Wasn't able to start work yesterday, but I managed a minor list and cross-reference pad today. Work starts up again tomorrow, so I'll try and get back with you over this on Monday.

User rights thread
Edit
Follower's working on a proposal that removes the moderator request. I'm sure you're aware of it. This also made me consider re-evaluating the admin requirement. What do you think of raising that to 1,250 main namespace edits? I've heard people (especially admins) are setting their standards higher and higher before voting yes on admin's requests. We've noticed it with Theo. And another thing Hal10k and KristofferAG are long eligible for removal of rights. I suggest we do that. They are inactive for more than a year. At the moment the inactive period for removal of rights is 9 months. What do you say we suggest upping that to a year? I think 9 months is too short after all. And then we have GhostAvatar. What do we do about him? I suggest we contact him in a while what his plans are. In any case, we should not remove his rights after 9 months in my opinion. That's too soon. A year, then ask Wikia to remove it, if he decides not to return or not answer our mail. Jspoel

Question
Edit
Hi Gunny. I was trying to edit with IE10 the other day, and I realised that my British English spell-checker was not working on any Wikia site. It was only checking in American English, despite the settings being for Br. E. and having that display on all other sites basically. I was wondering if you are aware that Wikia has a separate software/program for spell-check in source mode? --Skire (talk) 22:37, April 5, 2013 (UTC)
Check user
Edit
Gunny, I completely understand what you're saying. There is no abusive behavior, (Well, except for belittling a drug habit) but what I need to see isn't whether they're the same, rather, what country do they come from?--TwoBearsHigh-Fiving

Stuff
Edit
I've hardly seen any instances in the past few months that an admin needed to revert the blanking of a talkpage. Doesn't give that much problems, the revertal is mostly justified because 9 out of 10 it's to hide a warning. I've also seen bonafide removals of a welcome message which is ok by me. Don't see the real need of the notice tab, but I guess you can ask the community again in a forum thread what they think of it now.
Also, you may have missed it but Wikia staff added the image toggler to our infoboxes. If you add |imagetoggler = true to a page with multiple infobox images you can see the result (Leather armor (Fallout). At first Wikia added it to our common.css applying it to all pages but that didn't look right, so I asked to revert that. Try it on a page with 1 normal image in the infobox, you'll see what I mean.
And I have some concerns about the bug category. I've deleted an earlier post to you about this, and want to take another look at that. Jspoel
01:27, April 10, 2013 (UTC)
- You can work on it but I'm not crazy about it and don't see much purpose from the examples I've seen... About Fallout 4, time we create a forum gameplay/general discussion link to it like the other Fallout games. We can move the forum threads about Fallout 4 to it. Jspoel

Mods
Edit
Hey Gunny,
As resident "Gun Guy", and trying to deal with a situation with an editor I think we're both aquanted with, I was wondering how feasable it might be to add a mod section to the weapons infobox? Agent c (talk) 15:47, April 10, 2013 (UTC)
- Basically some positive confirmation that there is no mod to find. I was thinking that maybe a section in the infobox that listed any mods (with none for none)... But I think you're right on the length thing, it is risking information overload as it is. Agent c (talk) 20:31, April 10, 2013 (UTC)

What will it take to finish this up? I thought it was finished, as it was supposed to be for over a week now.

Some Assembly Required! 20:20, April 10, 2013 (UTC)
Edit
Your suggestions concerning the navigation menu are ok. Good work also with the move of the relating Fallout 4 topics. What do you think about that bug category? Do we really need it? Bleep is the only one working on it, and he has all the information in his sandbox where he can keep track of things. It's not like there will be a storm of edits/complete bug sections to process in the sandbox, can be done manually easy enough. And people may add bugs to page again, and the bug category wouldn't apply anymore. Don't feel the need for this category right now. Jspoel

- You mean creating categories for Fallout 4, like the Fallout 4 voice actors category you created in your sandbox? And once we know what the new game's name is, rename them, right? Don't see too many problems coming from it. You can go ahead and make a head start. Jspoel

New Categories for FO4

Let me know if you need any help setting up and organizing the new Categories for FO4. ---bleep196- (talk) 17:38, April 14, 2013 (UTC)
Robot and creatures article template
Edit
This is strange. {{Create article/creature robot/FO4}} has an entirely different creature stat box than we use on the pages. Special is included and attributes are missing. Jspoel
21:42, April 15, 2013 (UTC)
Consensus
Edit
I'm afraid that the only consensus that can be achieved at this point in time is if one party gives up, or ends up being removed for any reason. That being said, I'm outnumbered, so I'm going to have to go through you to moderate things.
So... what?
I suppose I could give up right? I could be wrong, they could be right; I could be right, they could be wrong. But if that's the case, why should I bother editing at all? It just becomes a matter of reinforcing popular opinion. I can make all the arguments I want; they can be sound, or they may not. But either way, I will state that this is not going to be any more productive.
If you consider me to be at the heart of the problem, then I suppose I'll just pack up stakes and leave.

Creature and robot template
Edit
I see you discovered some old templates and deleted them. No one ever thought about it till now since Porter left I guess... You added 6 attack and ability possibilities to the creature/robot template. I've only seen uses up till 3, maybe a few occasions 4. Isn't 3 enough as a standard? Jspoel
20:17, April 18, 2013 (UTC)
Charts
Edit
Hey Gunny, I was beginning to bring the charts into FO1 quests. The thing is, 2 of them are broken (Solve Phil's Canine Conundrum and Stop the Radscorpions). So, can you fix those two templates? Energy X

- Eh, Paladin117 has already fixed the issue... Energy X

Inactive bots
Edit
I'd say just remove the bot flag, but you don't have to block any of them. If they don't have a bot flag, they're just as any normal user and we don't block those because they're inactive. Charitwo has gone a similar way Ausir did by the looks of it. Changed employer and probably did something to annoy Wikia. Jspoel

New Message Glitch
Edit
I have a feeling that you've already noticed this, but I'll go ahead and throw the spotlight on it just in-case. It appears that when visiting a page and getting the 'New Message' pop-up for the first time, even after going to your TP and having it registered that you've checked the new message, it re-appears after visiting the previous page again. For instance, I was on Chad's TP when I got the NUN message from you. After checking the message, every time I visit Chad's TP now, the old pop-up re-appears.

Welcome Message
Edit
Hey, Gunny, I think the wiki welcome message that appears on new users' talk pages after they've made their first edit may be broken. A couple new users that have shown up and edited haven't had that on their talk pages such as User:Mr. Mantha. If this was disabled or some such disregard this message. Richie9999 (talk) 06:06, April 26, 2013 (UTC)
- Toughpigs said they'd been having trouble with it when I asked about it on Megami Tensei Wiki. Haven't checked to see if it was working today there. It was also doing something weird earlier where welcome messages using our signature with @latest would show up in our user contributions. Great Mara (talk) 07:13, April 26, 2013 (UTC)

Yeah, we've had an automatic welcome message for almost as long as the wiki has been here, but lately it seems to have stopped working. ---bleep196- (talk) 20:47, April 29, 2013 (UTC)

I was curious if you know how to make the box appear on the ww2 wiki.--Kingclyde (talk) 21:30, April 30, 2013 (UTC)
VA to FW
Edit
Gunny, those shortcuts from VA to FW are being fixed as we speak. So that you're informed. Jspoel
22:41, April 29, 2013 (UTC)
Hey Gunny. I caught your last message to Jspoel (whilst snooping). Did I mess something up? I was testing out AWB with the shortcuts and then manually creating the new ones. Is there another way it's supposed to be done? --Skire (talk) 19:44, April 30, 2013 (UTC)
- Pheww, alright then. Thanks. --Skire (talk) 19:49, April 30, 2013 (UTC)

- OK, my bot is working on it as we speak. --Skire (talk) 01:24, May 1, 2013 (UTC)
- I have programmed my bot to check all redirects that link to the pages in question (in the category you linked for me). I've been going page by page with 'what links here' so I cover all of them. Is there something more? --Skire (talk) 01:33, May 1, 2013 (UTC)

OK, so I believe all of the updating is completed. However, there may be a few odd errors, one of which is on Special:WhatLinksHere/Fallout_Wiki:F, where it lists the forum index as being a page linking to Fallout_Wiki:F. --Skire (talk) 20:26, May 1, 2013 (UTC)
- Hey Gunny. Just wanted to check in and make sure you received the last message. All the updating is done and I believe some of the redirects still need to be deleted. The above listed example is an anomaly I can't figure out though... --Skire (talk) 01:04, May 3, 2013 (UTC)

Template example images
Edit
Those newer templates (like {{Infobox incomplete}}) which we ported over from The Vault and use {{Mbox management}} don't give examples anymore how the template looks like. The older ones (like {{Merge}}) that use the {{Mbox}} template do give an example. Recently a user added the stub template to {{Stub/doc}} to show an the example but it's not proper procedure. Now that doc template is added to the Stub category. You think you might be able to solve it? I'd like to have those examples back on the templates if possible. Jspoel

You can remove this notice at any time by removing the {{Talkback}} or {{Tb}} template.
Stuff
Edit
1) Any chance you can give my talk-page a read? Specifically, the latest topic along with me responses to him. I think you'll be very interested in this opportunity since the loss of Theo.
2) I hope you're free early tomorrow. I need to discuss with you what we'll be wanting to discuss with them. I'm sorry that I'm asking this of you so late into the game, but I have been incredibly busy these past 3 weeks. Might do us some good to at least have our agenda somewhat prioritized.

(This isn't browser-specific btw. I see the exact same issue in Chrome, Safari and IE)
- Damn! My apologies! There seems to be a bug in one of the JS addons I'm using. It looks like I filed the bug report in the wrong place. Your wiki is most likely innocent. Thanks a lot for helping me figure this out though! -- pecoes 23:36, May 07, 2013 (UTC)
- Hi there!
- After hunting for that CSS bug in more exotic locales for two days, I'm back :) Again: Sorry about wasting your time with a false positive! Sometimes it's hard to know where to start :(
- It also looks like I jumped to conclusions about the amount of CSS skill you guys have! It sure looks like you have that covered. That renders my request for adminship pointless. Forget I ever mentioned it, please! My offer to help if you guys need help with JS or CSS still stands though. Just holler!
- So you've asked me if I know of pages with really large tables other than Fallout_3_perks... That's actually the largest one I'm aware of. But my knowledge of your wiki is - if that isn't perfectly obvious by now - very limited :) -- pecoes 17:22, May 09, 2013 (UTC)

Backgrounds
Edit
Out of curiosity: I noticed that both you and GarouxBloodline use custom backgrounds for your user pages. Is it just the two of you who do this, or is this a custom here? -- pecoes 02:56, May 10, 2013 (UTC)
- You gave me an idea with that one: How about a bit of JS that loads CSS that's specific to user pages? It's simple too, so I went ahead and wrote it right away: w:c:dev:SexyUserPage. Just add the script to a wiki's
MediaWiki:Wikia.jsand then every user can spruce up his pages by creating a CSS file just for himself :) -- pecoes 22:35, May 10, 2013 (UTC)
- I've set up a demo now at w:c:dev:User:Xëphnid. Let me know if you're interested! The idea was inspired by you guys of course, but it's ultimately unrelated to this wiki. So if it's not your thing, that's cool. Still, I'm pretty keen on an opportunity to field-test it :)
- The advantages are in short:
- It works for all users on the wiki but is strictly optional.
- It works on user pages, usertalk pages, message walls and all blogs without having to manually add elements to the individual pages.
- The CSS files are automatically edit protected. Only their owners and admins can edit them.
- The advantages are in short:
- Oh – and in case you're wondering – the two images you use on your own user page can be easily converted to pure CSS with pseudo elements ;) I could show you how... -- pecoes 09:43, May 15, 2013 (UTC)

User rights
Edit
I was thinking ask them a few weeks before 9 months expire, so that's why I asked Guardian a few weeks ago. Today I was planning to remove his rights today because it's exactly 9 months ago since what I consider to be his last edit. So that's the plan I have in mind. Now GhostAvatar is eligible for removal end this month so I suggest writing him a mail now and wait what he has to say. If he says I'm coming back and proves it with constructive editing then he gets to keep his rights. If he's just making a few edits (bc's call) or no response then the rights are gone after 9 months. If let's say he comes back 6 months from now I'd say two months of constructive editing in total is needed for adminship again. After first month patroller, then he can make an admin request a month later. So two months of continued activity I'd consider active again. If you can go along with that we would need to add that to the policy because things are not entirely clear. Concerning Avatar, I suggest writing him that post. Jspoel

- When you create an account, you need to set an email adres in your preferences. Then when you checkmark "Enable email from other users" in the E-mail tab, you can use Special:Emailuser to send an email. If it's not activated we will get a notification of that I think. In that case we place it on his talkpage. Jspoel
01:48, May 13, 2013 (UTC)
I think they need to have constructive edits on the wiki to be considered active again. Sorry for the short response but I'm in a pinch for time. Just the response to the question to "do you still want to keep you rights" isn't enough in my opinion.--Kingclyde (talk) 12:20, May 13, 2013 (UTC)

- I asked Wikia about it. Received response from Kirkburn who did some testing here today. But he can't find the problem yet because we have a very complicated infobox. He's asking me to try and reproduce the error with a simpler test case. I found out that once you add image size to the infobox parameter, the page returns back to normal. Maybe that will help him track the problem. I hope. Jspoel

- I really wouldn't know. Maybe you can give it a try, but I wouldn't mess around with it too much. Changes to this infobox template will have a major impact on pages, I don't have to tell you that. Otherwise send your tips to Kikburn, maybe you'll give him an idea on how to handle this. Jspoel

- Hi! My two cents: This has to be something wrong with mw:Extension:ImageSizeInfoFunctions. Just a wild guess. --Теодорико (talk) 06:26, May 16, 2013 (UTC)

- I posted what I suppose to be the cause of the bug on the mediaWiki site, but it looks like both the original author and the maintainer are inactive. It's probably best if somebody from Wikia writes a fix...
(Gamepedia/Curse) Vault
Edit
Hi Gunny. The Vault was vandalised last night. I have a good faith reason to believe one or more of our regulars may be repsonsible. I was thinking about putting something in the news to indicate that behaviour isn't acceptable. Do you have any objections to me doing this? Agent c (talk) 15:37, May 17, 2013 (UTC)
Wikia app
Edit
I added the My Wikia template to our main page. Can't hurt to give it some extra promotion, we have an app for it after all. Jspoel

Infobox misery
Edit
I suggest we ask Wikia tomorrow on the progress of the infobox errors. Hope it doesn't take them too long anymore to find the problem. Otherwise maybe we can ask Porter to lend a hand. I'm not having problems with the Wasteland wiki banner on the main page, as far as I'm concerned it can stay there. Jspoel

- I read it. Sure, go ahead. Hope it works. Jspoel

- Hey it seems to work. I'm glad. Can you inform Wikia on our progress, I'm pretty sure they want to know this coming to a definitive solution (Kikburn). Jspoel

- Ok, the images that are over 240px are sized down again, but now we have a problem with images smaller than 240px. Making an edit on these pages (primarily older games) displays the image in 240px, while the original is smaller. Try Home-made rifle for example. So the problem has moved. Jspoel

Featured articles
Edit
Hi Gunny. I've been talking to Chad a bit and I wish to discuss with you some matters regarding our current main page featured articles. This might be easier done in chat, but if not it can be done across talk pages. --Skire (talk) 01:19, May 18, 2013 (UTC)
Patroller
Edit
Hey Gunny, I was wondering if you might have need of another patroller. I watch the recent changes quite a lot and revert any bad/out of line edits as is, but I'd like to do so in an official capacity. I've made 387 mainspace edits, so I may or may not be within the acceptable parameters.

Infobox location
Edit
If you hover over a map marker that's been enlarged it gives an .x200px error. I tracked it down in the {{Infobox location}} template. If we remove it there, you think the map markers will return to a sized down state? Jspoel

Chat loading problem...
Edit
Is there some sort of chat loading problem, or is it on my end? I ask because for both on Nuka and the rp wiki the chat pages won't load.--Ant2242 (talk) 20:42, May 22, 2013 (UTC)

Tweaking the Weapon Templates for Pages
Edit
I was wondering if there was a way to add a new parameter to the infoboxes for showing enhanced critical damage (Crit DAM) as applied by perks. Earlier today I removed The Professional perk from the 10mm submachine gun (Fallout: New Vegas) and Sleepytyme (GRA) pages because it was conditional but also noticed that the perk effect was being added to regular DAM instead of Crit DAM as it should have been. Is there a way to modify the template for this? Every weapon affected by The Professional has a bonus to every critical hit it makes due to a bug in the game and this isn't corrected by any official patches.
