QuestionEdit

If an image has been watermarked: "Copyright <insert comany name, year> Do not distribute" that means I can't upload it, dosen't it? HellKaiserryo12[ADMIN] (Talk•Contribs) 00:03, July 25, 2010 (UTC)

Tehcnically, no. However, technically, we can claim Fair Use under U.S. Copyright Law and upload it anyway, although maybe you shouldn't do this since we don't restrict usage of copyrighted images (like Wikipedia does). I might be able to give you a better answer if you provide me with a link to the image in question. --FastLizard4{ADMIN} (Talk•Contribs•Logs) - Would you like to participate in the new forum trials? 07:19, July 26, 2010 (UTC)
http://www.sciance7.com/COMPUTERmodel4up.html - look near the bottom of the page. HellKaiserryo12[ADMIN] (Talk•Contribs) 19:44, August 3, 2010 (UTC)
Hmm. Technically, you can upload them here, but I wouldn't, since there was a specific request not to, they're not from an official Nintendo source, and they have a rather obtrusive logo/watermark on them. --FastLizard4{ADMIN} (Talk•Contribs•Logs) - Would you like to participate in the new forum trials? 10:03, August 5, 2010 (UTC)
OK then, I wont bother. Shame though, they were good renders. Thanks for the advice. HellKaiserryo12[ADMIN] (Talk•Contribs) 11:48, August 5, 2010 (UTC)

Blasted licensing! Edit

Arrgghh, I cannot seem to get these image licenses correct. I went and reread the images policy, and I believe I (somewhat) understand. Fanart should be tagged as such, and all non-fan-made, Metroid related pictures are under fairuse. There is also a rule against duplicate images. Is this all correct?


Wonderwalrus 11:48, August 3, 2010 (UTC)

Yup, that's all correct. --FastLizard4{ADMIN} (Talk•Contribs•Logs) - Would you like to participate in the new forum trials? 10:03, August 5, 2010 (UTC)

Forums Verification Edit

Hello, I would like to be verified on the new forums, my username is the same as it is here, Mochtroidprime1045.


Mochtroidprime1045 11:55, August 3, 2010 (UTC)

Verification process complete - you are now marked on the forums as a verified Wikitroid user. --FastLizard4{ADMIN} (Talk•Contribs•Logs) - Would you like to participate in the new forum trials? 07:54, August 4, 2010 (UTC)

Patrolling Edit

Hi. I'd just like to state that I have been the only admin patrolling lately. No one else is taking the initiative to do it. You wonder why my patrol count is overly high... --RoyboyX{ADMIN} 23:58, August 4, 2010 (UTC)

Re: Edit

Sorry about that. I just looked in the User creation log and saw that there was accounts that were welcomed that never edited so I got kinda carried away ^^""" I won't happen again. — SaradominO o (talk) 07:43, August 5, 2010 (UTC)

Ahh, don't worry about it, I was just curious why you did it. Not sure how those got missed in the first place, probably because there were no admins around at the time. --FastLizard4{ADMIN} (Talk•Contribs•Logs) - Would you like to participate in the new forum trials? 10:03, August 5, 2010 (UTC)

RfA vote Edit

Bah, I was twelve minutes too slow. I went and checked through his contribs in the middle of the edit, so I had to rewrite stuff. But it doesn't matter either way. The MarioGalaxy2433g5 {talk/contribs/Logs} 04:56, August 8, 2010 (UTC)

Lava Edit

Hello Fastlizard4

Not to be nit-picky or anything, but shouldn't the lava article be re-named magma, since technically most of the molten rock encountered in Metroid is subterrenean?

Wonderwalrus 01:15, August 17, 2010 (UTC)

Nope. Even though in reality, its magma, it is always refered to in the games as lava. The MarioGalaxy2433g5 {talk/contribs/Logs} 02:03, August 17, 2010 (UTC)
Begs the question, if it is subterranean but still in contact with air, what is it called? ChozoBoy [ADMIN] (Talk/Contribs) 07:26, August 20, 2010 (UTC)

Reply Edit

What else could I have said in my deletions? Sure, it was rash, but it was finally over, and that's why. As for the deletion template, I changed it to remove a red link, because I didn't know of any other way to get rid of it. And can we please stop yelling at RBX for everything he does? --RoyboyX{ADMIN} 13:56, August 20, 2010 (UTC)

I will stop yelling at you when you start thinking about what you're doing before you do it. Did you not consider that the red link was there for a reason? --FastLizard4{ADMIN} (Talk•Contribs•Logs) - Would you like to participate in the new forum trials? 02:14, August 21, 2010 (UTC)

Isn't there an alternate solution? The link is on the template itself, and I'm not talking about the link that's made when you put it on a page. --RoyboyX{ADMIN} 02:27, August 21, 2010 (UTC)

Way to dodge a point. And, oh no! There's going to be a few more non-article redlinks on Special:WantedPages! What a big deal! Well, it's not a big deal, so, well, deal with it. --FastLizard4{ADMIN} (Talk•Contribs•Logs) - Would you like to participate in the new forum trials? 02:32, August 21, 2010 (UTC)

I don't care if it's not a big deal, why can't you let me get rid of the link somehow? --RoyboyX{ADMIN} 19:38, August 21, 2010 (UTC)

Because it's not a big deal. That's why. If you keep on pushing this, I'm going to desysop and probably ban you. I've had quite enough of your red link antics. Got it? --FastLizard4{ADMIN} (Talk•Contribs•Logs) - Would you like to participate in the new forum trials? 00:50, August 22, 2010 (UTC)

ULF Worthy?Edit

Do you think a ULF page of that Metroid: Other M creature that I just uploaded necessary? I didn't want to make the page 'cause I don't know if it's really necessary since everyone seems to be annoyed by the amount of ULF pages. To me it looks like a Space Pirate from Prime 1, but that's very unlikely. Although, since it has machinery on him, it also indicates that it has some sort of high intelligence. Dr.Pancake 07:17, August 21, 2010 (UTC)

Also, why did you undo what I wrote on the ULF 28 page? Its actually true. [[1]]

Assuming that you mean File:Cryosphere_creature.PNG, you could if you want. I see no real reason not to, because the game comes out in less than 10 days, and once it does, we can go through and clear out what we don't need and expand what we do need. Also, while your edit may have been true, it violated the POV Policy, and although now I think I know what you were trying to say, I wasn't sure what you were trying to say when I patrolled the edit, so I undid it. If you reword it properly, though (see the POV Policy), you can readd it. --FastLizard4{ADMIN} (Talk•Contribs•Logs) - Would you like to participate in the new forum trials? 09:18, August 21, 2010 (UTC)

Reply Edit

You have also made me quite angry at you, but you shouldn't even be surprised. I'm not surprised that this happened. Oh, and why didn't you order him to remove his ADMIN? badge? And why isn't he in the same situation as me? I think he needs to suffer similar punishment. As for my status as admin, i don't even care anymore. --RoyboyX{ADMIN} 13:40, August 24, 2010 (UTC)

RFC-? Edit

howdy sorry to bother you, but I was recently reading around on talk pages, and the terms RFC and Rollback are mildly confusing me. Would you do me the grand service of explaining them?


Wonderwalrus 02:04, August 31, 2010 (UTC)

Hello there. RfC (the "f" is usually left lower case) stands for Requests for Comment, which means many things on different sites, but here it refers to our process for changing policies and things like that. For example, an RfC was used to decide what should happen to all of those "cameo and crossover" articles that have since been mostly deleted. You can see all of our RfCs, both current and previous, here.
Rollback is a term that describes a restricted ability that administrators and approved users have on the wiki. It's essentially an extra button that they see when they view an edit which allows them to instantly revert it if it's vandalism. You can get more details about rollback here and here. --FastLizard4{ADMIN} (Talk•Contribs•Logs) - Would you like to participate in the new forum trials? 06:23, September 1, 2010 (UTC)

RE: SignaturesEdit

On the contrary, I might have to decline. Why? Because it represents myself, AND I do work on other Wikipedia pages (and neither complained). Should resizing it be more better?

Also, if they can't read the bolded black, isn't highlighting a better option? darkboyavi.png Shadows guide me... 01:14, September 2, 2010 (UTC)
Oh, I set it to that Subst thing, long ago (like on Lostpedia), But I don't know how to make it vandal free, so can you tell me how?? Metroid101 14:28, September 26, 2010 (UTC)
Like I said, just change your signature to {{subst:User:Metroid101/sig}}. --FastLizard4{ADMIN} (Talk•Contribs•Logs) - Would you like to participate in the new forum trials? 23:31, September 26, 2010 (UTC)

(RE) Edit

Nope. No scan feature. Got the official Nintendo guide. Expect possible bad translations by Nintendo America. But I stand by that it is Kihunters. Extraxi 05:22, September 2, 2010 (UTC)

Ok, that works. I noticed, though, that you've kinda jumped in a little too quickly, and there are a few issues with the recent edits you've made. First and foremost is that you should thread talk pages by using sections, and not leaving messages in a random section on a talk page. You might also want to go through the editing tutorial, the editing cheatsheet, the wikimarkup guide, and our simplified Manual of Style (or Wikipedia's more comprehensive Manual of Style). Also, when resolving unknown names, remove the name from the template. You also need to be more careful when editing; for example, the trivia section edit here (line 12), and could you explain to me why you removed all those categories in the same edit? --FastLizard4{ADMIN} (Talk•Contribs•Logs) - Would you like to participate in the new forum trials? 05:31, September 2, 2010 (UTC)
Sorry, I just hit Post a Comment up top. I don't remember that edit, I've been whizzing through them, and I decided to clean up the template at the end, which I'm doing now. I mostly just wanted to put up all the names immediately and trim down on excessive amounts of categories by simply putting them all together in a Beastiary. Extraxi 05:34, September 2, 2010 (UTC)
Bestiary makes some categories redundant, but not all of them. Remember to think when editing; in this case, "Does the Other M Bestiary category encompass the categories I'm removing?" In this case, it doesn't for any, because you haven't subcategorized the bestiary category. Also, remember to bold the subject's name in the introductory paragraph of an article. --FastLizard4{ADMIN} (Talk•Contribs•Logs) - Would you like to participate in the new forum trials? 05:42, September 2, 2010 (UTC)
That's fine. I'm sure someone will correct it. There've been two editors following me through my entire renaming spree, correcting as I went. They weren't bothered by the categories, so I didn't think much of it. Anywho, I'm done except the two robots simply known as Guard Bots. You think I should just make a page referring to them as that, or just leave it as is? Extraxi 05:44, September 2, 2010 (UTC)
Yeah, I'll eventually get there and correct it then. Administrators, like myself, check by hand every single edit made to the wiki. I'm also not sure what you're referring to for the Guard Bots, or is this a completely new page you're creating? Also, if you'd like, you can join me in Wikitroid's IRC chat channel, where we can talk without having to edit each other's talk pages. --FastLizard4{ADMIN} (Talk•Contribs•Logs) - Would you like to participate in the new forum trials? 05:54, September 2, 2010 (UTC)
UAM 10, I think. Extraxi 05:59, September 2, 2010 (UTC)
Sure, if that's what they're called, go right ahead. --FastLizard4{ADMIN} (Talk•Contribs•Logs) - Would you like to participate in the new forum trials? 06:01, September 2, 2010 (UTC)

IRC :D Edit

Never been invited there before :D Sure, How do I get on? Everytime I try, my Mac says "Could not open page" :( Metroid101 11:39, September 2, 2010 (UTC)

Vandalism Edit

There was once a page made by a vandal that stayed on for two hours until Piratehunter deleted it. At the time, I was the only user that was formerly or was an admin active. Now another one has popped up, and someone vandalized the Metroid page. Just wanted to let you know. If I'm not an admin, can you at least regrant me rollback? --RoyboyX 19:37, September 3, 2010 (UTC)

If you want rollback, apply for it like any other user has to. --FastLizard4{ADMIN} (Talk•Contribs•Logs) - Would you like to participate in the new forum trials? 08:24, September 4, 2010 (UTC)

Delete an imageEdit

Can you delete the image 'Maurice Deceased'? I uploaded the wrong one by accident and when I tried to replace it, well, it did work, kinda. Every time I try to replace it in the article, it keeps putting the original one. So, can you delete it? That way I can upload it again, the right way. Dr.Pancake 22:53, September 6, 2010 (UTC)

Deleting the image is unnecessary. The problem is a caching issue on Wikia's end, which will hopefully get fixed soon. Also, next time, please provide a link to the image, or at least the full filename, so I don't have to go searching for it. --FastLizard4{ADMIN} (Talk•Contribs•Logs) - Would you like to participate in the new forum trials? 10:24, September 7, 2010 (UTC)
Oh, sorry about that, man. So, what do you suggest I do? Place the image now or wait until it gets fixed? Dr.Pancake 20:02, September 7, 2010 (UTC)
Bleh, sorry for the slow reply, been busy for the last couple of days. It should be fixed now, so try placing it; otherwise just keep trying every so often until it works. --FastLizard4{ADMIN} (Talk•Contribs•Logs) - Would you like to participate in the new forum trials? 08:59, September 9, 2010 (UTC)
Alright, thanks! Btw, can you add these two images to the Ridley gallery since its locked? Dr.Pancake 09:12, September 9, 2010 (UTC)

Not doing it, because it's not a necessary change. You can do it yourself when the protection expires. Also, you know you can link to images by putting a : between the [[ and the File: prefix, right? That is the preferred way of linking to images on talk pages to avoid clutter. --FastLizard4{ADMIN} (Talk•Contribs•Logs) - Would you like to participate in the new forum trials? 09:27, September 9, 2010 (UTC)
Aww man. I wouldn't mind waiting to place it, but you extended the protection time till 9/23/10. Its gonna be pretty hard to add those two images to the gallery by then, but I'll see what I can do. Also, nah the old maurice image still shows up. I guess I'll try again later. Dr.Pancake 19:13, September 9, 2010 (UTC)
Nvm, it works after reverting it for the second time. Dr.Pancake 04:49, September 10, 2010 (UTC)

Editing Edit

Sorry to waste your time, but i seem to be having a situation. Whenever I edited a page ( I never deleted anybody's stuff ) I saved it but, I checked it today and none of my changes were there! So I'm really confused on how that worked, so if you could send me a response I would be very happy.

It was because your edits were speculative. Somebody reverted them. The MarioGalaxy2433g5 {talk/contribs/Logs} 02:51, September 11, 2010 (UTC)

Patrolling a new pageEdit

How do you mark a new page as patrolled? I can't get the before-and-after comparison to show up if there's only one edit, and there's a few unpatrolled redirects I was trying to take care of... Dazuro 07:48, September 18, 2010 (UTC)

For a page creation that has no edits otherwise, just click on the article name link and find the [Mark page as patrolled] button below the text of the page. As for removal of speculation, that's up to you to decide; patrolling is intended as an anti-vandalism tool, but has many uses beyond this. My opinion, though, is that you should be bold and try to remove it, and if your removal gets reverted, go to a talk page. --FastLizard4{ADMIN} (Talk•Contribs•Logs) - Would you like to participate in the new forum trials? 07:53, September 18, 2010 (UTC)

Righto, then. But uh... Here, for instance. [2] I see no such button. Is my skin incompatible or is that accidentally an admin-only feature, perhaps? Sorry to be a bother about this. Dazuro 08:01, September 18, 2010 (UTC)

You're clicking the wrong button still. :P In the recent changes readout, if there's a page creation with no subsequent edits waiting to be patrolled, it looks something like this:
N ! 20:51 Entrusted One‎ (diff; hist) . . (+24) . . ChozoBoy (Talk | contribs | block) (Redirected page to Samus Aran)
For edits like this, you click the article's name, Entrusted One in this case, and look for the mark patrolled button on the resulting page. --FastLizard4{ADMIN} (Talk•Contribs•Logs) - Would you like to participate in the new forum trials? 08:06, September 18, 2010 (UTC)

RE:<br /> Tag Edit

Just to be on the right track, please show an example of when the subjected tag is appropriate. Shadowblade777 09:02, September 19, 2010 (UTC)

I believe they're commonly used in the input for Template:Infobox Beam and other infoboxes (simply because using actual linebreaks makes the template source code look ugly and can sometimes break things), and I sometimes use the magic clear="all" parameter to clear a CSS div clash. I also sometimes use them in instructions and the like when a list is impractical. --FastLizard4{ADMIN} (Talk•Contribs•Logs) - Would you like to participate in the new forum trials? 09:08, September 19, 2010 (UTC)

Question Edit

Why are you even on Wikitroid? As far as I know, you know nothing about the series itself and are only here to run the place. --RoyboyX 02:10, September 20, 2010 (UTC)

If he can tell you what is fanon, then he obviously knows about the series. The MarioGalaxy2433g5 {talk/contribs/Logs} 02:14, September 20, 2010 (UTC)

Homemade video question Edit

Hey fastlizard. I took a video on my cellphone of the SA-X doing something silly. If I tag it properly, can I upload it to My user page, or is there a rule against that? Wonderwalrus 20:15, September 21, 2010 (UTC)

Sure, if you tag it correctly. But, I don't think you can directly upload videos to Wikitroid; you'll have to do something like upload it to YouTube first (and you can then directly include the video from YouTube using <youtube> tags). --FastLizard4{ADMIN} (Talk•Contribs•Logs) - Would you like to participate in the new forum trials? 23:06, September 21, 2010 (UTC)

(arbitrary section break to separate threads) Edit

I want to put Flamethrower.Wii on my page, But i don't know how.

Could i please have some assistance here?

[[3]] 22:00, October 4, 2010 (UTC)

I don't understand what you're asking; could you rephrase your query? Also, please fix your signature so that it points to your local userpage, and include your username in your signature. --FastLizard4{ADMIN} (Talk•Contribs•Logs) - Would you like to participate in the new forum trials? 20:06, October 6, 2010 (UTC)

Edit war Edit

Currently there is an edit war going on over the Biology section on Bottle Ship. The war is between me and Extraxi. He wants the section removed, and I don't. Please do something. --RoyboyX 11:54, October 7, 2010 (UTC)

Yes. "Removed." Let's lie blatantly to admins. It really helps the situation. Extraxi 19:38, October 7, 2010 (UTC)

You pretty much did remove it. --RoyboyX 20:17, October 7, 2010 (UTC)

Well, it's been a while since the dispute, but 3RR was not violated and a consensus eventually did occur, so nothing needs to be done by me about it at this point. --FastLizard4{ADMIN} (Talk•Contribs•Logs) - Would you like to participate in the new forum trials? 07:10, October 10, 2010 (UTC)

Skin Edit

Apparently we can get most of the skin back up via Special:ThemeDesigner. We'd have to change the text color at MediaWiki:Wikia.css. Also, we can change the "Wordmark" (think logo) to an image that is 250x65 pixels (only .png files). So we would need a new logo. The MarioGalaxy2433g5 {talk/contribs/Logs} 17:32, October 8, 2010 (UTC)

Yeah, I was looking at that, it looks doable. We'd have to do some mucking around in Wikia.css for a couple things, but that shouldn't be too difficult. Also, I has a surprise for you! --FastLizard4{ADMIN} (Talk•Contribs•Logs) - Would you like to participate in the new forum trials? 07:10, October 10, 2010 (UTC)

So, how do you change the skin? The theme designer won't work for me for some weird reason (or I'm not doing something right). Think you could share some light on the situation or should I stay in the dark so I don't screw the whole thing up? :P The Exterminator {ADMIN} (talk • e-mail • contribs • count • logs) 01:19, October 12, 2010 (UTC)

I noted that the word marks have similar dimensions to the old wide logos from Quartz, but I didn't realize they were THAT close. The dimensions still aren't perfect, but that shouldn't be too much of a problem.
Exterminator: Are you trying to use it from Monaco or something? You must be using it from the new skin. The MarioGalaxy2433g5 {talk/contribs/Logs} 19:56, October 13, 2010 (UTC)

That's the thing. I am using the new skin. But the links on the page don't do anything for me and the article thing is shrunk to a box. The Exterminator {ADMIN} (talk • e-mail • contribs • count • logs) 20:26, October 13, 2010 (UTC)

Monobook Edit

You think you might be able to code our skin to work on Monobook? Or is it just going to look the way it does already? --RoyboyX 02:37, October 27, 2010 (UTC)

Well, there's two answers to this question:
If you mean our current Monobook skin here on Wikia, part of the agreement with the new color scheme was that the monobook skin would remain black-on-white for people that don't like our default white-on-very-dark-blue layout. Besides, since most people use Oasis/Monaco (for however long Monaco will still be around), it's probably unnecessary to go through and recode the color scheme to Monobook's layout, especially since people that do use Monobook mostly use it for the black-on-white color scheme.
Now, if you mean Monobook as in the default skin if we were to move Wikitroid to an independent site, yes, I probably would then take the time to recode the color scheme. Also, MediaWiki 1.16 and later (1.17 is going to be released soon), which is what we'd use, ships with two "default" skins, Monobook and Vector. Vector is the default skin on Wikipedia (and other Wikimedia Foundation sites), which is similar to Monobook in many respects, except that it is also compatible with Wikipedia's actually pretty good WYSIWYG editor. But, if we were to move to an independent site, I (or we) would (or should) take the time to adapt our color scheme to whatever skin we chose as default, Monobook or Vector. --FastLizard4{ADMIN} (Talk•Contribs•Logs) 08:10, October 27, 2010 (UTC)

Beta? Edit

What's with this beta thing in the admins part of the statistics? You, PH and RAN are marked with it. --RoyboyX 22:18, October 28, 2010 (UTC)

What exactly are you referring to? --FastLizard4{ADMIN} (Talk•Contribs•Logs) 08:11, October 30, 2010 (UTC)

Moving Wikitroid Edit

Have you ever considered moving wikitroid away from wikia? I only ask because of the fact that they're changing the format of the site, and, according to what I heard (I have no idea whether this is true), are taking away the option of monobook, or monaco, or whichever we had before the change. If this is true, I wouldn't like it very much, and I'm sure there would be other few users who wouldn't like it either. Now, if they keep the option not to change the format, GREAT. I'm just wondering if you ever thought about moving wikitroid to something like NIWA, or...something. The person who thinks this seems like it's passive agressive, but really isn't, DekutullaZM 16:00, October 31, 2010 (UTC).

Yeah, it's crossed our minds ("our" as in us admins and informed others) several times, especially since the skin change. A lot of the discussion has happened on IRC, but the move question was touched on a little on Metroid101's blog (somewhere in the comments). But, yeah, they are removing Monaco (which is the old skin that had the orange borders with white on dark blue text) in favor of the new skin (called Oasis), but as far as I am told they are keeping Monobook (which, as it's currently set up, is a normal black-on-white text and will probably stay that way). Yes, it's a nuisance, but we've been weighing what would have to be done in a move. We'd have to buy hosting (probably buy a few servers for load balancing, actually), pay for a domain name and all that good stuff, then on top of that transfer the wiki content to the new site (although this is relatively easy now that Wikia provides XML dumps of wikis). And, of course, I (and whoever else can help me with system administration) will have to invest lots of time into setting up the servers and maintaining the MediaWiki installation, which Wikia does for us here. But, there are several glaring caveats to a move - among them that Wikia will not (somewhat understandably) divulge the users database, which means that all user accounts would be lost in the move. Then, on top of that, Wikia asserts that per the terms of the CC-BY-SA license that we use, Wikia is entitled to keep the old wiki as it is up and running. So, essentially, we'd be splitting off, but leaving a perfect competitor - our former selves - in our place. That said, to be honest, I don't know what Wikia would do if we just went through and deleted all the pages here on Wikitroid and salted them once the move was completed (and I think there might be a "moral rights" argument potentially on our side in there). Summed up, it's probably more trouble than it's worth. We might as well just adapt to the new environment, but that said, if the community supports a move, I would too. I'm just playing devil's advocate and pointing out all the problems involved with moving a wiki, especially from Wikia. --FastLizard4{ADMIN} (Talk•Contribs•Logs) 08:15, November 3, 2010 (UTC)

About the new skinEdit

A user has complained to me that the Template:Reallife has been messing up articles in the new skin. I'd imagine this is going to be a problem for other templates too. I noticed Template:Cleanup also needs some jiggerypokery. The Reallife template is forced into the top left of the article, where the first sentence should start. It also has no border. I was wondering if you could/knew how to fix it? Also I was wondering if we could change the page width like the WoW wiki? Would you know how to alter that or is it fixed? HellKaiserryo12[ADMIN] (Talk•Contribs) 20:19, November 3, 2010 (UTC)

The page width is fixed. You'd need to change the template.
BTW: it appears the White text color is also applied to the search box. Any way to fix that? The MarioGalaxy2433g5 {talk/contribs/Logs} 15:34, November 12, 2010 (UTC)

AWB Edit

I need instructions on how to use AWB to add all the rest of the talkheaders. My list of them is complete. I've been trying to get PH to help but he kept telling me to ask you. Please please please respond soon. --RoyboyX 18:59, November 13, 2010

Gosh darn it! I accidentally deleted part of the of the message up there! Sorry... Bossbeater 03:39, November 22, 2010 (UTC)

what? Edit

i went to the page for the first metroid game, and something that shouldn't be there appeared. something innapropriate. something that said "dickhead". i noticed that you edited that page most recently(i had been there about a miniute ago), and that i couldn't click the edit button. is this your doing? could you fix it? please?

A vandal user just attacked all of Wikitroid adding that to things. Someone's already taken care of it. --RoyboyX 21:58, November 23, 2010 (UTC)

This vandal created a category :

http://metroid.wikia.com/wiki/Category:Pages_in_that_suck

Are you able to delete that?(24.201.170.219 22:02, November 23, 2010 (UTC))

To be honest, I'm not sure why that's there. I've checked all possible templates, cross-referenced the vandal's contributions, rechecked the source code and history of the page, but I can't figure out why, for me at least, that page still appears in that category. My guess is that it's just a software error (caching?) somewhere that will go away eventually. --FastLizard4{ADMIN} (Talk•Contribs•Logs) 10:51, November 24, 2010 (UTC)

what? Edit

and of course, it is gone as soon as i go check. my luck sucks.

Moderator guy Edit

He has just posted on the talk page of an ally stating that he has recruited seven other users that he will use as his spies to destroy me and all of my allies. I am currently trying to force him to identify his followers, but currently, I believe that the user named "Iiossb" that heavily attacked us a few days ago is one of them. Something is happening, and you must agree to work with me. --RoyboyX 01:51, November 27, 2010 (UTC)

Edit: He has stated that he has no knowledge of the user, leaving him out. He states that one of the users' names "starts with a c, ends with a y." It did not take me long to guess that ChozoBoy is helping him. --RoyboyX 01:54, November 27, 2010 (UTC)

WTF is going on? Metroid101 02:02, November 27, 2010 (UTC)

This is no lie, because I have found this. I need action taken as fast as possible. --RoyboyX 02:10, November 27, 2010 (UTC)

WOW those people need to get a life ... Metroid101 02:48, November 27, 2010 (UTC)

Wait.... Let me get this straight. First, you decide that you're going to piss a lot of users off - including me to some extent - by creating a few hundred blank talk pages with nothing but a talkheader on it, and proceed to pretty much say that a wiki's policies and community mean nothing, insisting that everyone hates you, and so on. Then, not two days later, you come back to me and ask me to go out of my way and handle yet another Moderator Guy situation.
In other words, when "the system" as it were works against you, you insist that it must die. But, when "the system" works for you, you proceed to take advantage of it, and really game it, without batting an eye.
In even simpler terms, you hate the rules when they work against you and accuse me and others of hating you, but when the rules help you, you say that they should be used to punish the people that go against you.
In fact, I can sum you up in one word: You are a hypocrite.
Because of your behavior, amongst other things, I refuse to help you in this current situation. What ChozoBoy said is outside my jurisdiction, therefore, I don't really care about what you have to say about it, or what Moderator Guy said either. Until you decide to follow the wiki's procedures, policies, guidelines, and expected standards as you expect others to follow them, I will not assist you in situations like this, unless the actual situation occurs on Wikitroid itself. --FastLizard4{ADMIN} (Talk•Contribs•Logs) 10:56, November 27, 2010 (UTC)

I would at least like to state that Moderator guy had ordered me to summon you at once, because he thinks you might like to be one of his users, due to your hatred of me. --RoyboyX 15:13, November 27, 2010 (UTC)

Moderator guy never said FL hates you. Nobody I know of on this wiki hates you, so stop trying to make it seem like we do. I seem to remember you said a while ago you were planning a revenge act? The fact that ChozoBoy seems to be involved makes me sceptical that this is real, thanks to you and his previous episodes. In any case, you aren't helping by responding to him with in a similar melodramatic manner. If it was serious you and the others wouldn't be talking in such a ridiculous sentiment. HellKaiserryo12[ADMIN] (Talk•Contribs) 21:12, November 27, 2010 (UTC)

There is evidence that the two have met on Punch Out Wiki. --RoyboyX 21:15, November 27, 2010 (UTC)

Although this violates your new law. I ask you to restore my user blog for merely 5 minutes. 5 minutes, so I will be able to copy it down and move it to a more suitable location, where this whole "moderator guy" fiasco will be resolved. This is my request, feel free to deny it. I will not judge you for doing so. Mach9 00:19, November 28, 2010 (UTC)

Sure. Please come on IRC so I can coordinate with you. --FastLizard4{ADMIN} (Talk•Contribs•Logs) 00:36, November 28, 2010 (UTC)

Phantoon's page Edit

Hi there. I'm writting you this message to ask two things: if Extraxi continues to attempt making the Phantoon article his b***h (yes, he wrote that) when he returns from his ban, should I restrict myself from doing anything to the article and come straight to you for assistance?

Also, you posted on my page saying that I had made some comments that could be considered uncivil in the article talkpage despite me doing, what I believe was, my absolute best in staying calm. In the past, I have seen others who discuss with Extraxi rendered, out of frustration, into profanity-screaming individuals. The only thing I can see in my posts which could be considered uncivil is when I said that his theory (on Phantoon growing larger thanks to the Bottle ship) was silly. If that's the case, I'd like you to know that I said it because he first considered anyone who believed the Federation had a role in Phantoon's return, was an idiot and utter moron.

I want to do my best to prevent repeating my mistakes. Thank you for your time.(Latinlingo 23:25, November 27, 2010 (UTC))

If you have any problems with Extraxi, or any other user really, that brings you to that level, notify me or another administrator (or both). As for what I considered uncivil, I just thought the whole exchange was getting out of hand. I thought it'd be best if warnings went all around. --FastLizard4{ADMIN} (Talk•Contribs•Logs) 23:39, November 27, 2010 (UTC)

Hi Edit

Hi I was looking for a user by the name of Ccalen. It could possibly just be an IRC name for this user, I wish to find this user to have a discussion with he/she. Thank you for aiding me in my search. Tangible 21:45, November 30, 2010 (UTC)

FL, i have already answered his question. We need to keep his true identity a secret for the moment. --RoyboyX 22:13, November 30, 2010 (UTC)

Pardon me? His TRUE identity? So he isn't just another user on IRC. I politely request the name of this user. This seems like a very bad way to welcome new users. You wouldn't want me to report this would you? Certainly it would be very bad if the admins were hiding things from new users! Tangible 22:16, November 30, 2010 (UTC)

FastLizard4, I would like to alert you to a message I left on RoyboyX's talk page. Please deal with this situation accordingly. Tangible 02:20, December 1, 2010 (UTC)

In RoyboyX's defense let me issue you this following statement. RoyboyX WAS SET UP. There is no dispute over this point. Now let me tell you why. Look at the following conversations, near to the bottom:

http://science.wikia.com/wiki/User_talk:Morboso

http://science.wikia.com/wiki/User_talk:RoyboyX

Review these carefully, you'll notice the time and date this was posted. You'll also begin to notice Tangible's name there. Then, not a day later, Tangible appears here requesting Ccalen. You know who Ccalen is. I know who Ccalen is. Then what was Tangible's excuse for coming searching for Ccalen? That he's a great motivator! Only a select few on this wiki have had the pleasure to meet Ccalen! And yet, Tangible's account was only created YESTERDAY. How could he hear of someone through someone in less than a day! Even overruling that, Tangible appears to have full knowledge of how to use a wiki! Including IRC! How could this possibly be? My theory is that Tangible was sent here to get information about Ccalen, it also didn't hurt him to antagonize RBX either! Knowing RBX's compulsive nature (no offense) Tangible used it to his advantage, by denying everything and making sure to ask RBX, who is NOT an admin (meaning that he would have to be chosen out of the blue) Tangible was able to make sure that two goals would be achieved. On this thesis alone, you should be able to make out the holes in Tangible's story. RBX should not be banned. Mach9 20:33, December 1, 2010 (UTC)

I request that you review my statement and deal with Tangible accordingly. Please get back to me on your decision. Mach9 01:06, December 2, 2010 (UTC)

I see... I certainly hope that you don't think I WAS Murky and Observer. But not Tangible. I will take what you said into account. Thank you for insulting my argument skills. I will be off then. Mach9 01:12, December 2, 2010 (UTC)

Hi!Edit

Thanks for the warm welcome FastLizard4. You're very nice, and I should warn you that I have little to no Metroid experience. In other words, I've never played a metroid game in my life so I don't know how much help I can be, but I'll do my best! Once again, thanks and nice talking to you. PhantomHeartless5 20:09, December 2, 2010 (UTC)

A Funny Metroid Game Edit

Hiya FastLizard,

I was snooping about on the internet, and I came across a Metroid flash game. I don't think it was an official game, but I am interested to hear whether you want me to write an article about it or not. Let me know.

Wonderwalrus 17:26, December 29, 2010 (UTC)

Something Edit

Sorry, but you without actual reason took out most of my edits which annoyed me greatly, and on you're talk page, I have read some pretty nasty things. If it will allow me to edit, I'll quit insulting anyone.AnyGuy 07:50, January 8, 2011 (UTC)

I'm talking about information I put, not because of spelling, people do that all the time, no I meant that the information I put about Marines, was deleted because of "Pure Speculation". There's a lot of speculation in Wikipedia pages, so things make sense. Leave me alone please.AnyGuy 08:02, January 8, 2011 (UTC)

Not much of my edits are play edit's okay. End of discussion.AnyGuy 08:08, January 8, 2011 (UTC)

Sorry Edit

Sorry for misspelling, it's just that I'm a diabetic, and I'm low and my hands are a little shaky. Sorry for all the trouble.AnyGuy 08:41, January 8, 2011 (UTC)

Don't say sorry; do something about it. Many web browsers today have some sort of built-in spell checking. If yours does, use it; but if not, Wikipedia has a nice chart here listing which browsers have built-in spell checking (look under the Spell checking column; examples of common browsers that include spell checking are Mozilla Firefox and Google Chrome). --FastLizard4{ADMIN} (Talk•Contribs•Logs) 08:48, January 8, 2011 (UTC)

Sure Edit

Okay.AnyGuy 11:42, January 8, 2011 (UTC)

A Little Problem Edit

Hey FastLizard4. I'm writing to tell you that there's a little problem with the MB page. It's like this, when I try to save my edits, it runs out of memory. At first I thought that it was my computer, but now I'm starting to think that it's a glitch because I tried editing the page while I was at school today and the same thing happened. Please message me when you get the chance. PhantomHeartless5 02:44, January 15, 2011 (UTC)

First of all, I am unable to reproduce the problem you describe. Of course, your description is itself very vague. What exactly do you mean by "it runs out of memory"? In any case, the problem was likely due to glitches experienced today at Wikia's main datacenters. --FastLizard4{ADMIN} (Talk•Contribs•Logs) 10:34, January 15, 2011 (UTC)

Mythology Edit

What do you think of a mythology page? like all the writing, music and story techniques used in Metroid andall the recurring themes like the Death, Good vs. Evil, Good turning to Evil, Deceptions and cons, Imprisonment, Dreams, Isolation, Revenge, Leadership, Scientific Experiments, War and etc. Metroid101 19:55, January 22, 2011 (UTC)[http://lostpedia.wikia.com/wiki/Secrets ]

Create it and see what happens. Also, your sig is broken. --FastLizard4{ADMIN} (Talk•Contribs•Logs) 09:35, January 23, 2011 (UTC)

Many thanks. Edit

Many thanks. I was wondering how to do that. Tuckerscreator(stalk) 22:11, January 26, 2011 (UTC)

Five image policy violations Edit

Hi. I just discovered five off topic images that were used in old revisions of Rundas, GF Naval Base Demeter, Ceres and Horus Rebellion, all uploaded by one user, may I request that he be talked to? Below are the images' names. I have removed them from their respective pages and have not tagged them because my edits will just be lost, and I have not linked them because they'll become red after their deletion.

  • File:Demeter_Pio-Clementino_Inv254.jpg
  • File:Hittite_Rundas.jpg
  • File:Horus1.jpg
  • File:Ceres.png
  • File:Ceres optimized.jpg --RoyboyX (Talk • Contribs • UN) 22:09, January 30, 2011 (UTC)

thx FastLizard4, i totally forgot about the licensing part of posting... my bad :P Etecoonboy 04:10, February 8, 2011 (UTC)

Two link errors Edit

Alright, I'm beginning to get fed up with the fact that Category:Techniques and Wikitroid:Articles for deletion/The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess are still in the Wanted Pages. Both have been in there for a long time after you used LizardBot to change the name of Techniques to Special Actions and with the AfD when they became RfDs. Like, why? --RoyboyX (Talk • Contribs • UN) 03:08, February 10, 2011 (UTC)

Looks like a caching issue somewhere or otherwise technical issue with the MediaWiki software. In which case there's nothing you or I can do about it. --FastLizard4{ADMIN} (Talk•Contribs•Logs) 07:13, February 12, 2011 (UTC)
But they've been there a long time. Longer than normal. --RoyboyX (Talk • Contribs • UN) 15:11, February 12, 2011 (UTC)

I'm now fed up with their presence there. The only way to remove them is for you to delete Wikitroid talk:Requests for deletion/The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess and Category talk:Special Actions. I have the content on them copied down, so if you delete them I will recreate them the next time I come on. I ask you for this because PH won't (as per usual). Don't restore them, it may just cause the errors to come back. <alienreference>It's the only way to be sure.</alienreference> --РoйбoйX (Talk • Contribs • UN) 01:38, March 10, 2011 (UTC)

I'm not doing it either, since there's no reason for it to be done. Losing page history for the purpose of keeping you happy as it were is not acceptable. We must keep complete page histories where possible to comply with the wiki's license and copyright law. Now, if you can explain to me how getting two inconsequential entries off WantedPages is more important than following our wiki's own copyright, I'll be glad to do it. --FastLizard4{ADMIN} (Talk•Contribs•Logs) 02:37, March 10, 2011 (UTC)

Um, I'm sorry, but what does copyright have to do with this? It has nothing to do with making me happy, I just don't know why they have to exist. Before you say "I have had quite enough of your red link antics. Got it?", they are not such a priority to me anymore. I just don't know why they have to exist. Maybe you could restore deleted revisions except for the renamings unless restoring those revisions will not also restore the caching issue. And if that's vague, then fuck. --РoйбoйX (Talk • Contribs • UN) 02:45, March 10, 2011 (UTC)

I think I just said what copyright has to do with this. "We must keep complete page histories where possible to comply with the wiki's license...." To put it simply, it isn't going to happen, no matter how big of a fuss you want to make with me or others. Learn to live with it, which shouldn't be too hard considering that "they are not such a priority to [you] anymore." On a side note, please view messages in context. My request for you to be more specific was in relation to your request for me to write you an IRC bot. --FastLizard4{ADMIN} (Talk•Contribs•Logs) 02:57, March 10, 2011 (UTC)

wanted pages Edit

Hi FastLizard4. I was wondering if it would be ok if I placed new links to pages that don't exist on my user page. I mostly want to do this for organization and we will need these articles eventually. Thanks. Metroid Master 19:00, February 12, 2011 (UTC)

Sorry about that Edit

sorry, I didn't know I had to tag the images on this wiki. Won't do it again.

Template glitchEdit

The template for Template:Infobox Station Area is malfunctioning along with Template:Infobox Planet Area. Varying sections of them do not display the lines that split them up according to image size. Also, some templates are not displaying all the bulletpoints used in a section. I think this might be a problem with the software. Can you look into it? HellKaiserryo12[ADMIN] (Talk•Contribs) 20:21, February 20, 2011 (UTC)

I can't help you because your "bug report" (if you will) is too vague (and I'm not even sure what you're talking about). Please link me to examples of this happening on articles for each problem you're reporting, and if you can, take screenshots of the behavior you're talking about and upload them somewhere for me to look at (not Wikitroid, of course, but sites like Photobucket will do the trick). You may also want to take a look at this guide to effectively reporting bugs, for this bug report and any reports you make in the future. It will make your life (and the life of whoever you're reporting the bug to) easier. --FastLizard4{ADMIN} (Talk•Contribs•Logs) 10:32, February 21, 2011 (UTC)

Notices below the "Edit" window? Edit

Greetings!

Allow me to introduce myself, I am InvaderMEEN.

I am an admin at Invader Club Wiki and Invader Zim Wiki. I am interested in the notices underneath the Rich Text Editing Window (Before you save your edits... etc.). More specifically, how you did it.

If you know how to edit it, please contact me at my talk page. If you do know who did, please direct me to that person. If you don't know who did it, please let me know.

Best Regards,

InvaderMEEN

That was another AMAZING message, from ME, InvaderMEEN!Contact me here! 06:36, April 14, 2011 (UTC)

Umm. First of all, sending a message to one admin would have sufficed, and it wasn't necessary to spam all of us....
Anyway, to edit the text shown beneath the edit window, edit the page MediaWiki:Copyrightwarning. As with any page in the MediaWiki: namespace, you must be a sysop to edit it. To restore the default text, all you have to do is delete the page. See the MediaWiki Wiki for more info. --FastLizard4{ADMIN} (Talk•Contribs•Logs) 08:02, April 14, 2011 (UTC)

ThanksEdit

Link errorEdit

As I expected, another caching issue was created with the move of the Ooromine category. The page in question is Category talk:Ooromine System (not linked because it will become red if deleted). It has been found that deleting and restoring pages is able to get rid of the issue, so please, take care of it this time, because it will satisfy you in preserving deletion histories. --РoйбoйX (Talk • Contribs • UN) 12:29, April 25, 2011 (UTC)

First let me introduce myself I am an admin/bureaucrat from the Alien Species Wiki and anon has made a personal attack against Nexus11 and he mentioned this wiki could you contact me about it thank you.--Owen1983 21:44, May 10, 2011 (UTC)

Issue Edit

There has been an issue On the AliensWiki where an anonymous user has claimed to be from wikitroid, threatening and personally attacking users. The user has since been blocked but claims on their talk page they are still active on Wikitroid on a different IP (but with a user account), and that if the AliensWiki users they attacked ever set foot on wikitroid, the user's friend will block them here. This issue was raised on my talkpage, where the user who alerted to me to the problem linked to the Anonymous user's talk, here. Is there anything you can do about this problem? Thanks, HellKaiserryo12[ADMIN] (Talk•Contribs) 16:53, May 14, 2011 (UTC)

I suspect this has to do with the whole Moderator Guy incident a while back. There's not much I can do about it, so the next step would be for whoever is "in charge" of the wiki in question to contact Wikia staff. --FastLizard4{ADMIN} (Talk•Contribs•Logs) 07:19, May 17, 2011 (UTC)

thanks Edit

We had a spate of vandalism and anti social behavior the anon claimed to be on this wiki so i contacted someone who rectified the problem thankyou.Owen1983 19:10, May 17, 2011 (UTC)

URGENT MESSAGE!! Edit

Okay, we have a HUGE problem with the "Ridley" article. And I'm not talking about the usual b.s. details that.users have been squabbling about for the paat century. THIS IS SERIOUS. Take a look at the page: not an inch of it is legible! Please fix it now.

VandalEdit

I've been reverting this guy since I got home from school, and (s?)he shows no sign of going away. The problem is, the vandal's IP address is constantly changing, I don't have time to look up how or why that could be accomplished. Some of the ones (s??)he's used recently are 200.220.189.254, 128.118.53.26, 207.255.179.8, 211.105.221.132, 201.12.130.72 .

This user is currently blanking (and in a few cases vandalizing) pages. We could use an IP ban and revert to all his edits. Likely the same asshole. Gogogosamurai 14:34, January 18, 2012 (UTC)

Main Page CSS issues Edit

Several table classes and the like of the old monaco.css were never transfered over to MediaWiki:Wikia.css. It is causing the main page to look not so good. If you receive the message, can you please fix this? Thank you. The MarioGalaxy2433g5 {talk/contribs} 00:16, November 23, 2011 (UTC)

Lizard BotEdit

I have a question. Do you actually have Lizard Bot as a machine in your home typing on a keyboard? Or is it just auto-editing software? I looked at the wikipedia page for bots, (bots, not robots) and it showed an image of one of them. Is that how Lizard Bot is?

Hah, I wish it was a machine in my house typing on a keyboard (although, after thinking about it, I'd rather invest in some decent server equipment). No, it's just some automated (or semi-automated) editing software, specifically - as noted on lizardBot's userpage :) - AutoWikiBrowser and pywikipediabot. --FastLizard4{ADMIN} (Talk•Contribs•Logs) 07:22, May 9, 2012 (UTC)

I see.
