Could you make it so anyone can see it, please?  Plumber 

He won't be back for awhile.--Aipom_Banana_2.gif Aipom  --

I know, but when he is back, he'll see this.  Plumber 

Don't think this is going to happen, sorry. --Steve (talk) firefox_27x15.png 09:00, 15 April 2007 (EDT)

Well, can you just install an Edit Count.  A fan of Yoshi | Here

Hel-loo.  A fan of Yoshi | Here

Give me a link to an extension. Why does it even matter? --Steve (talk) firefox_27x15.png 23:14, 17 April 2007 (EDT)

en.kirby.wikia.com has a special page there. (I don't know how to link to extensions.)  A fan of Yoshi | Here

This is what YoshiFan is talking about. --KPH2293 23:21, 17 April 2007 (EDT)

The extension Wikia uses is currently unavailable for other MediaWikis (I've looked many times). Besides, there'll be more important extensions to install in the near future. Wa Yoshihead.png TC@Y 00:17, 18 April 2007 (EDT)

vandalism

There's a vandal and will you please block him. I've been reverting for awhile.--Aipom_Banana_2.gif Aipom  --

I think I reverted all of it and he's gone.... for now.--Aipom_Banana_2.gif Aipom  --

Well he's been blocked. --Steve (talk) firefox_27x15.png 09:00, 15 April 2007 (EDT)

Thank you.--Aipom_Banana_2.gif Aipom  --

New "Only Block" User Group

As talked about on the main page talk, we need a new user group for just blocking rights. An in-between of sysop & user.

I think these lines in LocalSettings.php takes care of it:

$wgGroupPermissions['patroller']['block'] = true;
$wgGroupPermissions['patroller']['rollback'] = true;
$wgGroupPermissions['patroller']['patrol'] = true;

Where "patroller" is the name of the user group. Wa Yoshihead.png TC@Y 18:17, 15 April 2007 (EDT)

Group added. Fire when ready. --Steve (talk) firefox_27x15.png 20:36, 15 April 2007 (EDT)

Image:PaperLuigi.PNG

That file page & it's talk page can't be edited. Is there another blacklist text string like -psy- that's causing this? Wa Yoshihead.png TC@Y 21:32, 15 April 2007 (EDT)

Yeah, it's being caused by "perl" in the page title. --Steve (talk) firefox_27x15.png 14:46, 16 April 2007 (EDT)

User:Grandma Logan

Block him Great Gonzo

No need to warn me if I'm not online. Sir Grodus took care of it. --Steve (talk) firefox_27x15.png 14:46, 16 April 2007 (EDT)

Collapsible tables

Steve, some navigation templates don't have some esthetic like to qualify as template, because some are too big or another has extrange colors combination. So, it's possible to reorganize those defective templates to create some styles, for example, the Racecourses template should have a Collapsible table property, for reduce all the space that it contains, or at least, compact all this info that it has.
€zloI'll hope your call
PS:Look the exampple of the wikipedia link, that is should has our template.

do you think Grandpa and Grandma Logan are the same person...Great Gonzo

Maybe. We have the collapsible table extension installed, so you can fix up the tables if you'd like. --Steve (talk) firefox_27x15.png 14:46, 16 April 2007 (EDT)

sorry but, how I can set the box class that i want? can you give me any example of how i can make a collapsible table on this wiki? €zlo.

I don't even know. Wayoshi had me install the extension, maybe he knows something. --Steve (talk) firefox_27x15.png 06:49, 17 April 2007 (EDT)

Special:CheckUser

I just realized: CheckUser probably isn't set to allow patrollers access. Can you set this? Thanks. Wa Yoshihead.png TC@Y 00:48, 20 April 2007 (EDT)

I've done away with the CheckUser user group (annoying) so now all sysops and patrollers can check users right from the start. --Steve (talk) firefox_27x15.png 14:47, 20 April 2007 (EDT)

2 Extensions to Consider

  • Delete a user permanently from the database. We have some rude names and duplicate accounts that make this useful. Probably bureaucrat-limited
  • Oversight. Think: As mentioned on the page, personal information is exposed or something secret comes out accidentally (I know of a case of that in this wiki right now). This is a good thing to keep in handy, and we can limit it to bureaucrats as well.

Wa Yoshihead.png TC@Y 19:16, 24 April 2007 (EDT)

That's pretty cool.--Aipom_Banana_2.gif Aipom  --

I installed the Delete User one. What kind of exposed personal information are we talking about here? --Steve (talk) firefox_27x15.png 19:47, 24 April 2007 (EDT)

Well, if there's no personal information, extreme vandalism that's vulgar can be removed. I was thinking possibly an email address was revealed that is supposed to be kept hidden, or some sort of secret between two users that is accidentally hinted or released on a user talk page edit that needs to be kept hush-hush. Wa Yoshihead.png TC@Y 20:08, 24 April 2007 (EDT)

OK, I have one that will help with searching: here

 Plumber 

That extension isn't available yet (testing). Wa Yoshihead.png TC@Y 22:02, 24 April 2007 (EDT)

What's your verdict on Oversight? Also, there's a new version of DynamicPageList. Wa Yoshihead.png TC@Y 22:38, 25 April 2007 (EDT)

I updated DynamicPageList. I suggest you make sure it's running at full efficiency. Oversight is installed and revisions can be hid by sysops and patrollers. When looking at a past edit of a page (from the history), there's a new hide revision tab. Hidden revisions can be reviewed at Special:Oversight for sysops only. Also, I plan to update the MediaWiki software to the latest version soon. --Steve (talk) firefox_27x15.png 15:04, 26 April 2007 (EDT)
I tried all 3 ways the Extension page said the Oversight tab would be and I'm not finding anything. Wa Yoshihead.png TC@Y 15:33, 26 April 2007 (EDT)
The new tab is all the way to the right on old page edits. Should see it here. --Steve (talk) firefox_27x15.png 20:40, 26 April 2007 (EDT)
Still not seeing any hide revision tab. Can you take an image to show me where I should be looking? Wa Yoshihead.png TC@Y 20:46, 26 April 2007 (EDT)
K. Maybe try a hard refresh. --Steve (talk) firefox_27x15.png 20:50, 26 April 2007 (EDT)
The hard refresh did the trick because I've left this window open for days, even during Stand Bys on my comp. Wa Yoshihead.png TC@Y 20:53, 26 April 2007 (EDT)
Good to hear. --Steve (talk) firefox_27x15.png 13:38, 13 May 2007 (EDT)

User#1481-1483

Hey steve can you delete the user number 1481-183 due to its rude username manner in list of registered users.F g 

That's something I wanted to bring up with you. I tried deleting those users, but they still appear in Listusers. Wa Yoshihead.png TC@Y 15:32, 26 April 2007 (EDT)
The extension wasn't working and is removed. I read deleting user tables in the database can screw up the wiki, anyway. Maybe just try renaming the vulgar names to anything else. --Steve (talk) firefox_27x15.png 20:42, 26 April 2007 (EDT)

Hey, you ever face a wiki user in MKDS?  Plumber, Wayoshi pwns 

Yes. --Steve (talk) firefox_27x15.png 23:36, 27 April 2007 (EDT)

Who?  Plumber 

I played Wayoshi, WarioLoaf, and I believe 3dejong in a tournament we had. --Steve (talk) firefox_27x15.png 11:30, 28 April 2007 (EDT)

Yeah, I was there. You whooped my butt. Or did I whoop yous?   3D, bahaha!  

I killed you. --Steve (talk) firefox_27x15.png 13:38, 13 May 2007 (EDT)

edits

Not trying to be like, mean or nothing, but do you ever make any edits to regular articles? Full Metal Moogle 

What do you think? NO! --Steve (talk) firefox_27x15.png 22:44, 29 April 2007 (EDT)
Hmph.   3D, founder of the wiki, and all he does is keep it up. Go figure.  

Guys! He made the stinkin' Wiki! Isn't that enough? Max2 (talk)

Yes and no. --Steve (talk) firefox_27x15.png 13:38, 13 May 2007 (EDT)

Thanks

Thanks Steve. -- Son of Suns

Not a problem. --Steve (talk) firefox_27x15.png 20:27, 30 April 2007 (EDT)

Sprite

File:Myguys.PNG
Your the Blue Bowser.

It took me a lot of time, took me about 20 minutes to do one of your sprites but here you are! I noticed lots of people were using Bowser as your sprite, so I decided to make it more custom. Do oyu like it? I hope you like it...and I hope I didn't waste your time...  Paper Jorge (Talk·Contribs)

Looks good, I like it. --Steve (talk) firefox_27x15.png 12:44, 6 May 2007 (EDT)

Delete Users

Can't you do something to delete users with inapprioprate names?F g 

MediaWiki recommends we don't delete users, so the best we can do is rename the usernames to something else. --Steve (talk) firefox_27x15.png 13:38, 13 May 2007 (EDT)

Extensions

Remember this? I think there's been a new release. Can you install it now? Wa Yoshihead.png TC@Y 13:47, 12 May 2007 (EDT)

I still can't access the server command line to install it. --Steve (talk) firefox_27x15.png 14:00, 12 May 2007 (EDT)

This requires that $wgDBadminuser and $wgDBadminpassword are set up in AdminSettings.php

If there is a problem running the script, use the table definition in patroller.sql to create the table in the database

Did you check both of these? Wa Yoshihead.png TC@Y 14:15, 12 May 2007 (EDT)

I never got to hear your opinion on this. I said in the IM that less than 10% of wiki users join the forum, which would mean making the chat accessible from here would really increase activity. Wa Yoshihead.png TC@Y 20:54, 12 May 2007 (EDT)

Thanks for pointing that out, I got the one extension installed now. Guests can access the chat now. I'm going to move the chat so it isn't worked through the forum. --Steve (talk) firefox_27x15.png 13:38, 13 May 2007 (EDT)
So you're installing Extension:IRC Chat or doing it another way? Also, this has finally come out. I've heard an overwhelming yes in the chat room. Wa Yoshihead.png TC@Y 13:42, 13 May 2007 (EDT)
Yay, chat's coming to the wiki!  Plumber  13:48, 13 May 2007 (EDT)
Not particularly. It may be hosted somewhere entirely different. Wa Yoshihead.png TC@Y 13:49, 13 May 2007 (EDT)
I just noticed that the IRC extension page says MediaWiki 1.9.3 or greater is needed. We are still at 1.8.2. Issue? Wa Yoshihead.png TC@Y 14:04, 13 May 2007 (EDT)
Gives me a reason to do the upgrade now. --Steve (talk) firefox_27x15.png 14:13, 13 May 2007 (EDT)

Is there another MediaWiki page that controls what text appears before the chat applet (currently none)? A little list of basic features or a link to a chat help page might be helpful. Wa Yoshihead.png TC@Y 15:22, 13 May 2007 (EDT)

Deletion

Can you delete the Sammer Guy Tournament article? I created it just to find that the tournament from Super Paper Mario was called the Duel of 100. I've created an article called Duel of 100 now, but I don't know how to delete the first article I made. I think you can, though. Thanks.

Mariofan132

Thanks.

Mariofan132

Okay. --Steve (talk) firefox_27x15.png 13:38, 13 May 2007 (EDT)

Hi Porplemontage

Hi Porplemontage,

im SPL and thanks for creating this wiki!

i wanted to ask you a question, how come most peoples pages aren't protected?

--Super paper luigi 17:53, 13 May 2007 (EDT)

You're welcome, and they're unprotected so people can edit them. --Steve (talk) firefox_27x15.png 18:15, 13 May 2007 (EDT)

Hello Porplemontage

Hello Porplemontage

Can you help me put a logo on the Paper mario wiki? this is what i did so far [1]

Thanks

--Super mario97 11:47, 14 May 2007 (EDT)

You're welcome. The trick was to put the image URL on this page. You can remove the image from the MediaWiki:Sidebar page now. --Steve (talk) firefox_27x15.png 14:44, 14 May 2007 (EDT)

Smileys

On the chat, we lost a lot of smileys. Can you put the ones that aren't on anymore back on?  Plumber  16:51, 14 May 2007 (EDT)

All your old favorites should be there now. --Steve (talk) firefox_27x15.png 19:09, 14 May 2007 (EDT)

Thanks about the paper mario wiki

--Super mario97 15:39, 17 May 2007 (EDT)

No problem. --Steve (talk) firefox_27x15.png 20:43, 17 May 2007 (EDT)

hey did you know sos is leaving?

--Super paper luigi 22:42, 17 May 2007 (EDT)

Yes, I've heard. I've also noticed other users dissatisfied with the site. Hopefully tomorrow I'll be able to hear everyone out and fix whatever problems people are having. --Steve (talk) firefox_27x15.png 22:57, 17 May 2007 (EDT)

ya, i think max2 left.

Master Crash

Why? --Steve (talk) firefox_27x15.png 15:41, 18 May 2007 (EDT)
Actually I believe hes staying.  XzelionETC

He is staying...blocked, though.  Plumber  23:06, 18 May 2007 (EDT)

First Users

Who were the first users here besides you?  Plumber  23:06, 18 May 2007 (EDT)

Most of them aren't here any more. A man more recently in the news, A Link to the Past, was the fourth user here. After him was Ghost Jam. --Steve (talk) firefox_27x15.png 19:17, 19 May 2007 (EDT)
Oh. Were Hk, Agentseethroo, and Son of Suns earlly users too?  Plumber  00:35, 22 May 2007 (EDT)
HK joined after me, in June. Son of Suns was April, and Agentseethroo was very early, but dropped out...even I never saw him edit. Wa Yoshihead.png TC@Y 10:43, 22 May 2007 (EDT)
I worked with him on GamerFocus, which ended up having a wiki network, this being one of the wikis. The only other wiki that made it out was Halopedia, which I moved to Wikia after I couldn't host it anymore. --Steve (talk) firefox_27x15.png 14:58, 22 May 2007 (EDT)

PS2

Hey do you own a PS2 console?F g 

Yes. --Steve (talk) firefox_27x15.png 19:17, 19 May 2007 (EDT)

Do you have ATV offroad fury,socom,or gran turismo 4?F g 

Nope, can't say that I do. --Steve (talk) firefox_27x15.png 19:22, 19 May 2007 (EDT)

Sortable Tables

This is something DPL offers that makes a table of a certain class able to be sorted, ascending or descending, by any column (see the first example here). Wa Yoshihead.png TC@Y 13:02, 22 May 2007 (EDT)

Another unrelated issue. I'm trying to finally get around to listing the smiley codes, but when I try to directly paste the image url, like http://www.mariowiki.com/img/sourire.gif, I get "sourire.gif". Wa Yoshihead.png TC@Y 13:20, 22 May 2007 (EDT)

Use the <nowiki> tags like in Help:Icon. And I'm not sure the table sorting extension is worth the trouble. --Steve (talk) firefox_27x15.png 15:02, 22 May 2007 (EDT)
DPL can only organize to a certain extent. On my test page, the user can select to have the episodes in order of production, who wrote them, what the song was, the Log #, etc., ascending or descending. Wa Yoshihead.png TC@Y 16:22, 22 May 2007 (EDT)
And also, not what I meant on the smilies. When I type the full url of an external image, I'm supposed to get the image. When I type http://www.mariowiki.com/img/sourire.gif, I get "sourire.gif". No image appearing. Wa Yoshihead.png TC@Y 16:46, 22 May 2007 (EDT)
That means that no image exists at that location. --Steve (talk) firefox_27x15.png 18:26, 22 May 2007 (EDT)
Then what does
param name="style:smiley1" value=":) img/sourire.gif
mean? Wa Yoshihead.png TC@Y 18:29, 22 May 2007 (EDT)
All the images are /irc/img/. So that one is here: http://www.mariowiki.com/irc/img/sourire.gif sourire.gif. --Steve (talk) firefox_27x15.png 18:45, 22 May 2007 (EDT)
I thought it was a difference in the link url. Thanks Wa Yoshihead.png TC@Y 19:26, 22 May 2007 (EDT)
No problem. --Steve (talk) firefox_27x15.png 19:28, 22 May 2007 (EDT)

Wow u are very creative. You say it was bound to happen any time but i dont think so. You have created a great hobbie for all of us. I am the new girl on site and i would like to be friends:). The more friends the better thats wat i always say:) Petals

Okay. --Steve (talk) firefox_27x15.png 20:35, 22 May 2007 (EDT)

More Help

What does , edit the code, and add this text, replacing the name and caption appropriately mean?

Petey_Piranha

It means to add the image code to the page using actual information to display an image. So for example you would use:
[[Image:MP8Mario.png|thumb|It's Mario!]]
To display the image on the right:
 
It's Mario!
Because we're using Image:MP8Mario.png for the image and "It's Mario!" for the caption. --Steve (talk) firefox_27x15.png 21:51, 26 May 2007 (EDT)

Willy on Wheels

Willy is getting HORRIBLE. He's hitting on me in chat (saying he wants to have $** WITH ME), saying things that should be rated "X", and totally ruining everything for us. He vandalized the main page, and put up horrible pictures and a really bad "announcement". IS THERE ANY WAY TO BLOCK HIM? He keeps getting new IPs! THIS IS OUT OF CONTROL!   3D, WE BEG YOU!  

You need to move the chat back to the forum.SaudyTalk!
Why? How did he get into your account? --Steve (talk) firefox_27x15.png 20:39, 29 May 2007 (EDT)
I dunno, but he's crazy. He's horribly inappropriate, needs to go, and I'm not allowed in chat because of him. I did have a pretty simple password, but I've changed it.SaudyTalk!

You remember when I asked you how to put the image in the edit box and categorys? Well, it didn't work. I try and try and it just doesn't work! Any suggestions?Toadbert101 00:50, 9 June 2007 (EDT)

If the code doesn't work, then I don't know what to tell you. --Steve (talk) firefox_27x15.png 03:17, 9 June 2007 (EDT)
Never mind. I got got it working. Turns out I only had to restart my computer to see it! Lol.Toadbert101 00:22, 10 June 2007 (EDT)
The trick must have been clearing your cache. --Steve (talk) firefox_27x15.png 00:25, 10 June 2007 (EDT)

SpecialForm

From what I understand from this, I can create any form I want and have it sent to any email specified. If so, can you install this and make the to user line Wayoshi, and allow everyone, even guests, to have showform rights? This would be perfect for the Mario Awards. Wa Yoshihead.png TC@Y 17:00, 9 June 2007 (EDT)

I'm not using the database for the awards. --Steve (talk) firefox_27x15.png 17:49, 9 June 2007 (EDT)
Too minor? I'll work around it. Wa Yoshihead.png TC@Y 18:39, 9 June 2007 (EDT)

Oh yeah, there's also this. Can be used for a) countdown to awards day, b) countdown to end of voting, c) countdown to end of a proposal vote, etc. Wa Yoshihead.png TC@Y 22:43, 9 June 2007 (EDT)

Hmm it didn't work. --Steve (talk) firefox_27x15.png 23:03, 9 June 2007 (EDT)

MarioWiki Chat

I can't access the MarioWiki chat. It says I'm disconnected. I also think WarioLoaf is having the same problem. Is there any way to reconnect me again? Thanks.Marcelagus (TCE)

Refreshing the chat should really reconnect you. --Steve (talk) firefox_27x15.png 17:40, 10 June 2007 (EDT)
For me, the internet always closes, so I have to use Darkmyst chat. Also, can you install the Extension that can change titles?  Plumber, Yo ho Yo ho A Pirates Life for me!~ 
What extension is that? --Steve (talk) firefox_27x15.png 19:31, 10 June 2007 (EDT)
I think you tried NoTitle and it didn't work. Also, I have gotten several complaints of the chat occasionally failing. Wa Yoshihead.png TC@Y 20:06, 10 June 2007 (EDT)
No good; I tried refreshing, using the darkmyst channel, and it didn't work. I even tried downloading the whole client, ( C:\unzipped\pjirc_2_1_1_bin\NormalApplet.html ) but it still didn't work. Marcelagus (TCE)

1.11 & User Smilies

1.

Maintenance update MediaWiki 1.11 is not released yet, even though MediaWiki 1.11 is currently running on all Wikimedia sites (since January 2007), see these notes about the "continuous integration" development model with quarterly snapshot releases. Third-party users should probably not use the development version to run a public site unless paying close attention to development and ongoing releases, and unless really keeping up with fixes. If you want to grab and install the latest development version, read Download from SVN as appropriate. [5]

The proposal that requires FlaggedRevs will be finished tomorrow and should be improved. I was planning to start without the extension, though difficult, but does this mean you can get a beta version of 1.11 and make it work? Or are we one of those 3rd-party groups (even though we directly use the software) and it is too risky?

2. Users want to put upload their own smilies of their sprite heads to use in the chatroom. Is this ok? It would count as a personal image for them to have the privilege. Wa Yoshihead.png TC@Y 19:17, 12 June 2007 (EDT)

I don't update the site until a version is officially released. They release it for people to test and search for bugs and betas are not usually used on mainstream wikis. And I don't see the point on the smilies thing. I wouldn't allow users to edit the chat code, so managing the smilies could get annoying. --Steve (talk) firefox_27x15.png 21:37, 12 June 2007 (EDT)
I meant that users make their own smilies and sysops can add the smilies in. Maybe make a MarioWiki page to keep track of requests done/rejected. The param name code is easy to handle. Wa Yoshihead.png TC@Y 22:43, 12 June 2007 (EDT)
I understand that, but I don't like the idea. --Steve (talk) firefox_27x15.png 22:50, 12 June 2007 (EDT)

OK, Special:SearchLog failed. Might as well remove. This might be more helpful. Wa Yoshihead.png TC@Y 19:33, 14 June 2007 (EDT)

Look at it. The table is a bunch of messy code (at least on Firefox). Wa Yoshihead.png TC@Y 19:41, 14 June 2007 (EDT)

It's a MediaWiki extension, so you probably can't install it on EditThis. --Steve (talk) firefox_27x15.png 22:58, 12 June 2007 (EDT)

The two user wikis are merging.SaudyTalk!
Well you use Special:Export and compile a list of the pages you want exported. That will create an XML file. Then go to Special:Import on the wiki you want the pages imported on and upload the XML file. --Steve (talk)   19:41, 16 June 2007 (EDT)
We had trouble after we exported them. We don't know how to save the XML.SaudyTalk!
Just go up to file on the menu bar, and do save.  Plumber 

Excuse Me

May I ask why HK-47 was demoted?  XzelionETC

Sysops should be keen on enforcing the rules. If you've got a problem, you can talk to me about it, but what I don't need is a young rebellious sysop in the public eye. He's a good man at heart, but I'm afraid the sysop gods did not give him their blessing. --Steve (talk)   22:13, 18 June 2007 (EDT)
Yeah, I understand. It was cool while it lasted. I should have talked to you, yeah.SaudyTalk!

Five Links

um... why can we only have 5links in our signature? It's sparking arguments at MarioWiki:Proposals. Can you please tell? Max2 (talk)

Sigs are just supposed to be a little line of text so we know who the poster is. A little added bonus is fine, like the Firefox image in my sig. That gives me User, User talk, and one extra link. As soon as you have four or more extra links, you're defeating the purpose of the sig, which is just supposed to let people know who posted what message. They become annoying when too many images or links are added to them. A line had to be drawn at a certain number. --Steve (talk)   12:37, 19 June 2007 (EDT)

Well, the "useless wikis" are only on there because they're there by default. Do we link to RETROSega a lot? --Steve (talk)   00:08, 20 June 2007 (EDT)
I was thinking of doing it on my page, and now that sonic and friends are starting to cross over, it may become useful at some point.SaudyTalk!
A site like Sonic Retro, our new affiliate, would be much better suited for a reference to Sonic stuff. RETROSege seems inactive and just overall not as good of a source. --Steve (talk)   01:44, 20 June 2007 (EDT)

I've gotten a couple of complaints of either can't-get-on at all or extremely-slow today. Also, the max user connections error is popping up more frequently. I definitely notice a slow-down.

Teh Big Problem

Yes, it's me, back to annoy you further. I'm sorry I have to do this, but Xzelion has seriously disturbed the peace at MWuserpedia. here is a log of our arguement:

MURZON: Um, why'd you delete Troll possession tragedy? [10]Lord Dice Is HERE

XZELION: Cause its part of my comic and you had nothing to do with it, I was the only possesed in the event. --Xzelion (Talk)

MURZON: The comic was canon, right? Right. So if it was canon, other things than what was shown in your comic could be happening then, right? Okay. So yes, I was not in your comic, and I don't pretend to be. In the actual event, in the storyline, I was there but no one saw me so I wasn't in the comic. Get it? [11]Lord Dice Is HERE

Xzelion:You have nothing to do with it, not even there in the shadows. --Xzelion (Talk)

MURZON: I didn't think you cared. And Xzelion, on an unrelated note, you are walking down the same path that wayoshi did: Nice user then, stricter then, stricter then, stricter then, unfriendly then, very very frustraing. Okay? You overreacted about the pics of Dark Wayoshi, and you're overreacting about this! Why didn't you just delete the part with me in it? Sigh, Xzelion, you get harder to work with every day. [12]Lord Dice Is HERE NOTE TO PORPLE: Yes, I admit that at this point I overreacted a bit. But that's not the worst thing that happened.

XZELION: Shut your face dummy, you don't know anything. you always act like you're important well you're not. You're just some annoying brat, so go bug someone else, don't ever bother me again. ~~Xzelion

MURZON: I AM TRYING TO HELP THIS WIKI! You half-witted freak, this is why so many users are leaving! BECAUSE YOU AND YOUR OH-SO-SPECIAL SYSOP BUDDIES ARE DRIVING THEM OUT! [13]Lord Dice Is HERE

XZELION: And what do you do to help the wiki jackass nothing you're just someone that drives everyone insane. I'm sick of you you're just some idiot with a dumb name. And Hk isn't a Sysop FYI. --Xzelion (Talk)

AIPOM: Whoa! Settle down. Why don't we just meet in the middle to solve all conflicts?--Aipom_Banana_2.gif Aipom  --

MURZON: Ohh, I don't know, why don't you just look at his most recent comment on my talk page? THAT might explain it! [14]Lord Dice Is HERE

XZELION: What the hell do you know, you're just as annoying as the crybaby-overreactor Max. --Xzelion (Talk)

MURZON: What do I know? I know this: You've changed with your name. The great gonzo is gone. And in his place is someone who ridicules users instead of helping them, insults those who disagree with him, and is overall a carbon copy of what wayoshi had become before Reform. [15]Lord Dice Is HERE


Okay, that's it. Please do something. [16]Lord Dice Is HERE

The row of Google ads is appearing inside the wiki content space, before categories on pages that have them. Shouldn't it be on the side? Wa Yoshihead.png TC@Y 17:56, 23 July 2007 (EDT)

There are ads on the side as well. I'm trying out ads in both places to see how it affects revenue. --Steve (talk)   19:43, 23 July 2007 (EDT)

? Glitch

I'm getting a weird glitch; whenever I use the search bar to search up a name with question marks in it (such as Bowser???), the question marks are omitted and I'm redirected to an article without them, even if such an article doesn't exist (which is the case with pages like Toadstool's ???). Would it be possible for you to fix this? YELLOWYOSHI398

The New Advertisements

I understand that they are required to stay since the server costs more money, however can you place it under the category area? Since it's placed between the content and the categories, it looks a bit confusing.Knife (talk) 22:50, 23 July 2007 (EDT)

Exactly what I was trying to ask earlier today. Wa Yoshihead.png TC@Y 00:01, 24 July 2007 (EDT)
I understand the dislike for the new ads and their location. However, they really need to be above the category box for the illusion that the ads are at the bottom of the article, and not just below the article at the bottom of the page. I've tested them below the category box and it really makes the page look weird. On the bright side, it looks like that rectangle at the bottom of the page is going to help to generate enough revenue that we won't have to pray on people donating in order for the site to stay up, and all that is getting pushed a little farther down is the category box. I appreciate it that the wiki members aren't letting these new ads distract from enjoying and editing the wiki. --Steve (talk)   18:05, 24 July 2007 (EDT)

I know the proposal wanted to change the template to conserve energy. If you want a template that looks like shit but conserveres energy, go ahead and edit your monobook, but I'm not going to make an official wiki template unless it looks nice. --Steve (talk)   16:15, 25 July 2007 (EDT)

Donations Not Needed

Does this mean you've found a good source of revenue?Knife (talk) 22:56, 25 July 2007 (EDT)

Yes, the ads at the bottom of the page. --Steve (talk)   23:03, 25 July 2007 (EDT)

Harvest Moon

I was curious as to if someone had created a Harvest Moon wiki yet and happened across this: [17] The creators name is down as Steve and was curious as to if this was one of your other, possibly forgotten, projects. I've done some minor editing already and would be interested in getting things running. --  Chris  08:30, 27 July 2007 (EDT)

I don't think Steve would do a Wikia, though I may be entirely wrong. Wa Yoshihead.png TC@Y 12:16, 27 July 2007 (EDT)
Hey, I hope its our Steve's! I love Harvest Moon..... If it isn't Steve's.... and for some reason Ghost Jam (unlikely) changes his mind, I'd love to help get it up and running.SaudyTalk!
Nope, not mine. --Steve (talk)   12:38, 27 July 2007 (EDT)
Hmm. Alright then. I'll see about adopting the wiki. Help is welcome from anybody who's interested. --  Chris  16:58, 27 July 2007 (EDT)

Porplemontage Studios

How goes Porplemontage Studios?  Plumber  17:08, 27 July 2007 (EDT)

It's good. Crazy people on a forum. --Steve (talk)   18:43, 27 July 2007 (EDT)
The Couch Slave Wiki didn't fare so well, did it?SaudyTalk!
Matt Wilson stopped making cartoons, and wanted the site taken down. --Steve (talk)   18:53, 27 July 2007 (EDT)
You run anything else of interest?SaudyTalk!
No. --Steve (talk)   19:01, 27 July 2007 (EDT)
Do you remember the animation you did for Jeromy's Led Zeppelin thing?SaudyTalk!
Yeah, I remember that whole thing. I didn't make the animation, though. --Steve (talk)   19:22, 27 July 2007 (EDT)

Sprites

Do you know where I could find them?{{User:Toadbert101/sig}} 14:02, 28 July 2007 (EDT)

What kind? --Steve (talk)   14:04, 28 July 2007 (EDT)
well,toa Waluigi said you had only two sprites for the comic. Do you know where though?{{User:Toadbert101/sig}} 23:54, 28 July 2007 (EDT)
Nope. I know nothing about where sprites are. --Steve (talk)   08:09, 29 July 2007 (EDT)

Licenses

Can we update our picture licenses to include the not-free poster license. There's going to be a slew of new Mario-related movies, possibly even a trilogy of Super Mario Bros. movies, and a narrative Donkey Kong movie. I don't know where exactly you might find this license, but it would be useful in the future.SaudyTalk!

If you figure out the license you're free to make the template and I'll get the category and drop-down menu setup. --Steve (talk)   20:17, 28 July 2007 (EDT)
Question: Wouldn't posters as such go under {{photo}}, since it's promoting the movie? Wa Yoshihead.png TC@Y 20:20, 28 July 2007 (EDT)
Yes! --Steve (talk)   20:22, 28 July 2007 (EDT)
So that means an extraneous license isn't necessary? Wa Yoshihead.png TC@Y 20:26, 28 July 2007 (EDT)
It isn't actually that simple. A movie poster is still copyrighted, so it falls under not-free poster, we can use it as long as we have justification, which I can just copy from wikipedia, as they justified their use.SaudyTalk!
Well, I added a template. Just add it to the list, and we're all done with this!SaudyTalk!

Main Page Banners

Is it alright if we change them to these (Credit to WarioLoaf)  XzelionETC:

Those are cool!{{User:Toadbert101/sig}} 21:20, 29 July 2007 (EDT)
Looks good to me. --Steve (talk)   21:31, 29 July 2007 (EDT)
Can you revert these back for now? There's disagreement among the community due to the fact that different type of artwork was used; I'll work on a simpler, same-artwork set later this week. Wa Yoshihead.png TC@Y 18:34, 30 July 2007 (EDT)
They're fine staying up. If I believe a new set of banners look even better, I'll make the change, but there's no good reason in my opinion to take the current ones down. --Steve (talk)   19:25, 30 July 2007 (EDT)
Erk... I see no problem with them, either, but that hasn't stopped me from starting to design my own set using similar artwork on each.SaudyTalk!
For the record, I was responding to MarioWiki:Main Page Talk Archive 13, Section 23. Wa Yoshihead.png TC@Y 20:47, 30 July 2007 (EDT)

Personal Message

do you know if you could make something like a personal message?

Master Crash

Not on the wiki itself. Private PM's should be handled through the forum or wiki email function. --Steve (talk)   23:24, 29 July 2007 (EDT)

ok, just asking.

Server

Hey Hk and I own a Muwserpedia (a wiki about Mariowiki Users) but we're an editthis, but we've run out of room on the editthis. Could we possibly move to your server> And if so would it be for free or would we have to pay?  XzelionETC

Please?(Toadbert101| |Give a yell) 16:28, 30 July 2007 (EDT)
I'm afraid I would have to charge you guys, sorry. Have you tried Wikia? --Steve (talk)   19:27, 30 July 2007 (EDT)
I doubt they'd let that happen. I understand.  XzelionETC
Can I have an estimate? I may be able to work something out with Xzelion.SaudyTalk!
You guys are really better off with a professional host. For $9/month you get more than you need with HostDime. You would also need a domain, which you can get for about $6/year. --Steve (talk)   20:10, 30 July 2007 (EDT)
That's not much guys.(Toadbert101| |Give a yell) 12:29, 1 August 2007 (EDT)

Name change

Could you please change my name to Moogle? Full Metal Moogle 

Okay Moogle. --Steve (talk)   21:16, 30 July 2007 (EDT)

Thanks :D Full Metal Moogle 

I've got a problem

Go to my userpage and see the ads. Can you fix them please?(Toadbert101| |Give a yell) 12:36, 1 August 2007 (EDT)

You need to fix your code. --Steve (talk)   12:51, 1 August 2007 (EDT)
How?(Toadbert101| |Give a yell) 14:43, 1 August 2007 (EDT)
I don't know, but I removed it. --Steve (talk)   14:47, 1 August 2007 (EDT)

Controversy

There was some disagreement in chat as to your gender. On one side were those arguing that your real name is Sarah, and that you were a girl. The other half was under the impression that you were a guy named Steve..... Could you settle this?SaudyTalk!

Sounds like gossip. Judging to Steve's signature... - Cobold (talk · contribs) 16:35, 1 August 2007 (EDT)
Well, I just want to hear it from him myself....SaudyTalk!
From what I could tell, his name is Steven Shinn from his donation pages and stuff.Knife (talk) 16:42, 1 August 2007 (EDT)
I get that. I just want him to say it here, so those in chat can find closure, and for the "Steptics" to find out how wrong they are.SaudyTalk!
This is too stupid to warrant an actual response. --Steve (talk)   16:49, 1 August 2007 (EDT)
So does that mean there is some deep dark hidden secret you've been hiding?SaudyTalk!

Sorry, Journalist reflexes kicked in.SaudyTalk!

Chat Colours

Well.... They do get out of hand sometimes.... And we can't have any of the staff come in there without complaining about them because of the Wayoshi incident.... Maybe setting the room as mode +c isn't a too terribly bad idea.SaudyTalk!

What colors? What does setting the room as +c do? --Steve (talk)   23:05, 1 August 2007 (EDT)
It turns off the font colors that people are so keen on using. But I have graver news than some stupid colors. Certain users of the chat, (Wayo, Knife) have got us in bad with the darkmyst guys. Its, uh, so bad, I suggest we find another java applet that would work with the catzilla server.SaudyTalk!
What did I do?Knife (talk) 00:38, 2 August 2007 (EDT)
Whata ya think you did?SaudyTalk!
Oh, yeah. It isn't so bad that we have to find another java applet though. :twisted:Knife (talk) 00:42, 2 August 2007 (EDT)
I'm also taking into account the numerous past incidents. The darkmyst guys genuinely hate us.SaudyTalk!
I haven't heard of any past ban incidents, besides mine and Plumber. Share with us your story.Knife (talk) 00:47, 2 August 2007 (EDT)
The #darkmyst birthday incident was isolated. Notice they haven't come back after that day. Wa Yoshihead.png TC@Y 11:46, 2 August 2007 (EDT)
Isn't it fun to be wrong? They come around plenty when you aren't around, Wayo.SaudyTalk!

Name

My third and final wish, oh great porplegenie, is to have my name changed to Sadaharu. Gracias en el advance.SaudyTalk!

Yeah sure. --Steve (talk)   23:05, 1 August 2007 (EDT)
Thanks.SaudyTalk!
