MarioWiki:Main Page talk archive 6

Welcome to Main Page talk. This is where technical issues go. For all general questions, please visit the FAQ.

Just a quick question

How come when i searched for : the main page came up?
The preceding unsigned comment was added by Isyou (talk).

Odd. It links to "http://www.mariowiki.com", which goes to the Main Page. It's like a Home redirect. Wa _T^C_@^Y 19:42, 6 March 2007 (EST)

RareWiki

Could someone add the link to the side box with the Wiki Forum, etc.-- Aipom --

We're not affiliated with the RareWiki, so no. --Steve (talk) 18:38, 1 March 2007 (EST)

Remember we're separate entities. The transferring of articles is the only thing related. Wa _T^C_@^Y 20:04, 1 March 2007 (EST)

I understand. I just thought that since you created it and part of it will be about the trietary focus of this Wiki and all.-- Aipom --

Well Banjo & Conker are gone – I removed tertiary focus from MarioWiki:Importance Policy. Wa _T^C_@^Y 20:13, 1 March 2007 (EST)

When will the articles be deleted? --Steve (talk) 14:38, 2 March 2007 (EST)

Hello? The "Remove the Tertiary Focus from the Importance Policy Picture" was my idea. you guys seemed to forget about the whole page! Max2 (talk) Like the sig, Steve?

I was creating Help:Article. The articles need to be deleted by sysops as soon as all images are transferred. If I'm on tonight, maybe I'll undertake the dirty work. Wa _T^C_@^Y 15:02, 2 March 2007 (EST)

I would have thought that once a page was moved, it would be marked for deletion, which would have made this matter moot. -- Chris 18:51, 2 March 2007 (EST)

I'm going through Special:Allpages at RareWiki tonight and plucking them out one-by-one. Yes they should have, but something happened... Wa _T^C_@^Y 21:59, 2 March 2007 (EST)

I just wasted spent 75 minutes getting rid of all RareWiki articles and images, as well as a few templates. :D Wa _T^C_@^Y 00:47, 3 March 2007 (EST)

Why was Conker deleted? I cut down Banjo and his' articles just to have their Diddy Kong Racing Appearance in their article. So why was he deleted? ^Plumber

It would seem that Conker is still there or has been restored. -- Chris 19:25, 5 March 2007 (EST)

I noticed Conker was deleted for reasons unknown and rewrote his article from scratch, instead of restoring it. -- Sir Grodus

Apology

Sorry for the mix up with gallery tags. My home computer has a smaller monitor than the one I am currently using. I can see the I was mistaken about three pics per gallery tag and am in the process of fixing my mistakes. If you have no idea what I'm talking about, don't worry about it. -- Chris 20:15, 6 March 2007 (EST)

RareWiki Isyou

There's an imposter on the RareWiki using Isyou's name. The real Isyou is Super isyou on RareWiki. Someone please help me find out who the fake Isyou is.-- Aipom --

Is this faker causing trouble? If not, I don't see why we need to worry about this. We aren't even affilitated with RareWiki.-- Chris 20:23, 6 March 2007 (EST)

I'll help. are there any Sysops or any Administrator there? Max2 (talk)and 2nd, is Fake Isyou a troll?

So far, he/she has only had 1 contribution, but Wayoshi seems sort of mad at me for not telling him, so I figured that it must be pretty important.-- Aipom --

I'm on it! Max2 (talk) Ace Detective! (seriously, I'm a pretty good detective.) Wish Me Luck!

I'm just going to note this: The only contribution that the RareWiki Isyou made was done before that Wiki was created. --KPH2293 20:31, 6 March 2007 (EST)

How's that even possible?-- Aipom --

huh? Max2 (talk) 8( I can't search that! OK, we need a Sysop on RareWiki! $25 for helpin' 8) not really.

It was done before? how is that possible? Isyou 20:38, 6 March 2007 (EST)

Wait... How'd YOU know that? 80 Max2 (talk)

You can look at the dates the edits were made on wikis in history i think... Isyou 20:40, 6 March 2007 (EST)

He's right. He also left fake Isyou a message on his talk page. And Yoshi626 said it a few lines above.-- Aipom --

I don't get it either. -- Sir Grodus

Max2 (talk) OK, suspects:

1. Yoshi626
2. Aipom
3. Anybody here.

(After two edit conflicts, I can finally post this) Look through here. That edit was made about a week before the RareWiki was created. It's a result of the page being imported from here. Isyou must've been the last person to edit that page before it was imported to the RareWiki. --KPH2293 20:45, 6 March 2007 (EST)

That make some sense, but who come in didn't do that with the other articles. And 3 edit conflicts for me :(-- Aipom --

New Suspects: Max2 (talk)

1. Aipom
2. Real Isyou
3. not a suspect, but if you forgot, I'm the Detective. Thank you!

Why me!?! I'm the one who alerted this.-- Aipom --

oh, sorry. I meant... wait. did you say "Isyou must've been the last person to edit that page before it was imported to the RareWiki."? Max2 (talk) Just a bit of something, check the I.P address on that isyou on the rare wiki. Its not the same I.P that i o on everyday (although today im on a different computer) but its still different. Isyou 20:52, 6 March 2007 (EST)

Could a sysop just look through the deleted page history of Conker: Live & Reloaded? If there's an edit by Isyou on 15:56, February 17, 2007, then they are the same person. --KPH2293 20:52, 6 March 2007 (EST)

I have to go. but before I do... It's someone on this Wiki' Max2 (talk)

Wow, this spiraled pretty far out of control in a little over ten minutes.-- Aipom --

First of all stop talking about another website. If you want, discuss this at RareWiki, not here. I'm not trying to be mean but you should be talking about MarioWiki on MarioWiki and talk about RareWiki on RareWiki.

Second to resolve all this and get it off the Main Page talk, it may have been a glitch. Or there is a possibility that someone has created an Isyou account somewhere on Wikia, but that still doesn't explain how that Isyou edited on MarioWiki. Regardless, the only way for Isyou to get his name on RareWiki is to use the glitched account's password. Maybe you'll have to contact Wayoshi for that, he's the only sysop on RareWiki for now.Knife (talk) 21:06, 6 March 2007 (EST)

Question. If someone makes an account on Wikia, then does that person automatically have an account on all wiki running through Wikia? -- Chris 22:05, 6 March 2007 (EST)
