2015 SSBMRank

I'm finished... I added images for every player in the ranking that needed them, replaced almost all old images for new and better ones if necessary, put their rankings on their corresponding pages (with a lot of help from Dinodomain), and even fixed some things that were missing on their pages. How did I do? -- The 70's called. They said BeepYou was here :v 02:41, 8 January 2016 (EST)

Great! Thanks for that, it needed done badly. Serpent King 02:42, 8 January 2016 (EST)

You're welcome ;] -- The 70's called. They said BeepYou was here :v 02:52, 8 January 2016 (EST)

lol I think that IP you blocked was just a Ranai fanboy. -- The 70's called. They said BeepYou was here :v 21:15, 17 January 2016 (EST)

It's still vandalism... Serpent King 21:17, 17 January 2016 (EST)

That's what I'm trying to explain. Because someone is salty because Ranai was sent to losers! XD -- The 70's called. They said BeepYou was here :v 21:21, 17 January 2016 (EST)

Motsunabe

Since you asked for proof of notability (which I probably should've included in the edit summary to begin with, admittedly), he's currently ranked 3rd in Japan. I think that's good enough, considering Japan is one of the hardest regions for Smash 4. :P PokemonMasterJamal3 (talk) 23:17, 13 January 2016 (EST)

That's good, thanks :D Serpent King 23:19, 13 January 2016 (EST)

Blade Flurry / Blurring Blade

That page was "moved" by copy-pasting to a redirect. Could you move it properly for the sake of the history and talk page? I'm not sure how moving over a redirect works. (It's called Blade Flurry in the PAL version of the game, incidentally). Zyrac(talk•contribs) 05:52, 14 January 2016 (EST)

Got it, thanks for letting me know. Serpent King 08:39, 14 January 2016 (EST)

SW:CNA

Then can we discus this in SW:CNA's talk? Are people permitted to make minor changes and stuff? -- Ethan (Discussion) 13:49, 18 January 2016 (EST)

These IP addresses

Would you do the honor of unblocking IP addresses 68.61.182.60 and 73.185.36.79? As I looked at the block list, Miles had indef-blocked these addresses, something you're not supposed to do as per SW:BLOCK. 76.220.46.149 20:23, 18 January 2016 (EST)

Why not ask him? I do not know under what grounds they are blocked. Serpent King 20:29, 18 January 2016 (EST)

I did. He hasn't replied yet. 76.220.46.149 20:30, 18 January 2016 (EST)

ESRB leak redirect

Please explain to me why this should be an exception. -- Ethan (Discussion) 20:29, 22 January 2016 (EST)

The same reason we have a redirect for Copy ability. It's a significantly high-use name. Serpent King 20:35, 22 January 2016 (EST)

But that's different because it is more than just capitalization change, but making the title singular. If I type "ESRB Leak" (Leak is capitalized) it should work with out the redirect, right? -- Ethan (Discussion) 22:55, 22 January 2016 (EST)

It'll work without, yes, but anyone who puts "ESRB Leak" in the search bar will be out of luck. It's not always necessary to have capitalization redirects, but in this case, I don't see the harm. Serpent King 23:04, 22 January 2016 (EST)

If putting "ESRB Leak" won't directly take them to the page without the redirect, then I see use for it. But take "Double jump" for example, if you insert "Double Jump" (jump is in caps) into the search bar, it works and does not say "(Redirected from Double Jump)" at the top left of the page. -- Ethan (Discussion) 00:20, 23 January 2016 (EST)

Leffen

This. I discussed it with Miles as well, but he says it looks okay. -- The 70's called. They said BeepYou was here :v (talk) 01:39, 24 January 2016 (EST)

Unless you have an up-to-date suitable replacement, this will have to do. The image will be changed down the road eventually anyway. Serpent King 01:43, 24 January 2016 (EST)

I hope so. It just looks so bad. -- The 70's called. They said BeepYou was here :v (talk)

User:Le vivre

It's kind of strange. Looking at his contributions, none of them before where vandalism. He also deleted text from the page he started. -- Ethan(Discussion) 20:09, 25 January 2016 (EST)

Honestly, I feel an infinite block was a bit overboard. This is the first time they did that. Disaster Flare (talk) 20:10, 25 January 2016 (EST)

Yeah, maybe that was a little rash. I'll lower it and give talk page privs back. Serpent King 20:23, 25 January 2016 (EST)

I think this user may have been hacked, as (like Ethan said,) all of their contribs. were good faith. Maybe a check user would be needed. Penro, the and main. 20:27, 25 January 2016 (EST)

Unlikely. The page they were blanking was a page they created. Could be possible they wanted the page deleted, but was doing it in a seemingly bad faith way. Disaster Flare (talk) 20:28, 25 January 2016 (EST)

Oh, ok then. Penro, the and main. 20:30, 25 January 2016 (EST)

(edit conflict) I was thinking about that being a possibility, too. Does anyone know of users getting hacked before? -- Ethan(Discussion) 20:31, 25 January 2016 (EST)

The only one I'm aware of was 15DWS's old account, IronMaidMaryan or whatever. Disaster Flare (talk) 20:32, 25 January 2016 (EST)

After you finish talking with DF

I can't seem to enter the IRC channel. Every time I want to, I just never get inside to talk wih people publicly. What would be the problem? -- The 70's called. They said BeepYou was here :v (talk) 23:10, 27 January 2016 (EST)

Not sure. Are you sure you're connecting to #smashwiki? Serpent King 23:12, 27 January 2016 (EST)

I do. But from my PC, it just never works. -- The 70's called. They said BeepYou was here :v (talk) 23:40, 27 January 2016 (EST)

I'm not sure how to help you without actually being there and seeing what's happening. Serpent King 23:41, 27 January 2016 (EST)

Well, dang. I guess I'll have to use talk pages. -- The 70's called. They said BeepYou was here :v (talk) 23:46, 27 January 2016 (EST)

Low tier fan?

I think I saw you on eventhubs and I'm a fan! How did you get that picture and list of mains? Anyway, thanks for the message. I love low tiers, and you main low tiers! So I'm not alone! ^_^ —Preceding unsigned comment added by Swagman (talk • contribs) 00:30, 31 January 2016 (EST)

First, please remember to sign your comments (it's four tildes, like this: ~~~~). Second, yeah I main lowtiers but I am not on eventhubs, so you are probably thinking of someone else. Third, refer here for the infobox like mine. Also, welcome to our wiki! Serpent King 00:28, 31 January 2016 (EST)

How do you make templates? Swagman (talk) 00:42, 31 January 2016 (EST)

You mean how do you use them? For that particular one, just copy the code here into your page and fill in the information. Serpent King 00:44, 31 January 2016 (EST)

I did it!!Swagman (talk) 01:08, 31 January 2016 (EST)

Congrats!! Serpent King 01:11, 31 January 2016 (EST)

Why does a luigi icon appear in your name and not mine? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Swagman (talk • contribs) 01:14, 31 January 2016 (EST)

It's part of my signature. See this and this. Serpent King 01:14, 31 January 2016 (EST)

How did you get it?Swagman (talk) 01:16, 31 January 2016 (EST)

In preferences, you can change your signature. Make sure that "Treat signature as wikitext (without an automatic link)" is unchecked. I'd use the sandbox to test it before trying to apply it there. For info on using images, see Help:Images Serpent King 01:20, 31 January 2016 (EST)

Could you show me a code example?Swagman (talk) 01:27, 31 January 2016 (EST)

Sure. Mine is:
<span style="font-family:Monotype Corsiva; font-size:12pt">[[User:Serpent King|<span style="color:#083">'''Serpent'''</span>]] [[File:SKSig.png|16px|link=]] [[User talk:Serpent King|<span style="color:#ed0;">'''King'''</span></span>]] Serpent King 01:34, 31 January 2016 (EST)

I don't get it, sorry.Swagman (talk) 01:42, 31 January 2016 (EST)

Let me explain it at a time when I have more time on my hands, k? Serpent King 01:44, 31 January 2016 (EST)

Ok, thanks!Swagman (talk) 01:45, 31 January 2016 (EST)

I'm new!

I need a long explamation on how to get a fancy signature(y'know, colors and icons). I also wanna know how to list more than 1 main. If anyone can help me, please do.Swagman (talk) 22:37, 31 January 2016 (EST)

Could you perhaps describe for me what you are after, and I'll make it for you? This would be a lot simpler. Serpent King 22:46, 31 January 2016 (EST)

Hello? Serpent King 23:33, 31 January 2016 (EST)

Remember? I want to learn how to put an icon next to my signature like yours.Swagman (talk) 23:35, 31 January 2016 (EST)

Yeah but which? I'll make your sig if you give me details. You can then toy around with what I give you to get it just right. Serpent King 23:39, 31 January 2016 (EST)

I would like to have a Cloud icon and if you can, make the name blue. P.S. I hope this isn't too much. I'll change it if it is.Swagman (talk) 23:49, 31 January 2016 (EST) Or you could do the Mr.L icon from Project M and make the name green.Swagman (talk) 23:54, 31 January 2016 (EST) It didn't work.{{SUBST:User:Swagman/sig}} (talk) 00:31, 1 February 2016 (EST)

Did you check off the "Treat signature as wikitext (without an automatic link)" box? Disaster Flare (talk) 00:35, 1 February 2016 (EST)

You mean put a check in the box?{{SUBST:User:Swagman/sig}} (talk) 00:38, 1 February 2016 (EST)

Yeah. That should fix your issue if I recall correctly. Disaster Flare (talk) 00:38, 1 February 2016 (EST)

My fault, I meant to say to check it, but I think I told you to uncheck it :c Serpent King 00:40, 1 February 2016 (EST)

It doesn't work. Maybe I just suck. Maybe the page hates me.{{SUBST:User:Swagman/sig}} 00:43, 1 February 2016 (EST)

Hang on I think I know the problem. Put the "SUBST" in all lowercase, like "subst". Oh, and capitalize "Sig". Disaster Flare (talk) 00:44, 1 February 2016 (EST)

still doesn't work. I suck like Kirby!{{subst:User:Swagman/SIG}} 00:48, 1 February 2016 (EST)

No, I meant like "Sig", not like "SIG". Links can be very case-sensitive. Disaster Flare (talk) 00:49, 1 February 2016 (EST)

Though I'm very jerky, I like to eat turkey. Then I'm very perky. And then I want beef jerky! True-Perky, False-the rest. I did It!!!!!!Swagman (talk) 00:55, 1 February 2016 (EST)

Congrats!!! Serpent King 00:55, 1 February 2016 (EST)

Enjoy your new signature. :D Disaster Flare (talk) 00:56, 1 February 2016 (EST)

I, Swagman, the ultimate Cloud main, arises!Swagman (talk) 00:58, 1 February 2016 (EST)

Just out of curiosity, a luigi fan to a luigi fan(me), can you get the data for green letters and luigi's Project M mr.L palate swap? Just look up luigi pm to see it.Swagman (talk) 01:07, 1 February 2016 (EST)

Angle images

Should we just round images for angles to the nearest 10 so we won't have broken links? I remember someone else said to do this. -- Ethan(Discussion) 22:51, 31 January 2016 (EST)

Honestly that doesn't solve much, as then it'd be inaccurate. I think it'd be best if we just waited until Toomai gets them. Disaster Flare (talk) 22:53, 31 January 2016 (EST)

We're waiting on Toomai to upload those I think. I'll ask him about it if he doesn't in the next couple of days. Serpent King 22:54, 31 January 2016 (EST)

I'm sure I saw someone else do it, maybe their edit was undone. -- Ethan(Discussion) 22:55, 31 January 2016 (EST)

I'm aware that there are currently 3 pages that need angle icons, and each one has a reason why I have yet to do them. For two of them, it's because I need the time to check some related things. For the MK back throw one, it's because it's incorrect, but I can't fix it until I make the proper template. Toomai Glittershine The Superlative 00:01, 1 February 2016 (EST)

RED STATUS ALERT!!!!!

PEOPLE ARE SAYING THE STATUS SHOULD BE CHANGED TO RED!!! EVERYONE SHOULD CONTRIBUTE MORE THAN TALK! WORSE, TWO NEW CHARACTERS ARE COMING SOON!! lISTEN TO ME AND MAYBE SPREAD WORD!Swagman (talk) 07:27, 1 February 2016 (EST)

You don't need to bring it to a talk page. The status on the front page is enough for most people to realize when not to edit their userspace. And if people are still editing userspace, the admins can add a reminder. I suggest you look over SW:TALK if you haven't already. John PK SMAAAASH!! 09:37, 1 February 2016 (EST)

Um, how do you become an admin?Swagman (talk) 11:07, 1 February 2016 (EST)

I am a Luigi fan so...

Do any of you want to help me and make an icon that is green AND has the Mr. L head sprite from project m? The Mr. L I'm talking about is one of Luigi's costumes in project m.Swagman (talk) 07:30, 1 February 2016 (EST)

Kirby

Just wondering but could i get Yellow Kirby's icon from smash 64 on my signature? Thanks KirbysCrazyAppetite (talk) 17:33, 1 February 2016 (EST)

You just have to reupload it at a user image and add it to your signature, you don't need permission :P ---Preceding unsigned comment added by you. Or maybe DatNuttyKid. 17:34, 1 February 2016 (EST)

But how? And can i do this with a PS4? KirbysCrazyAppetite (talk) 17:40, 1 February 2016 (EST)

Idk if you can do it with a PS4... It's in preferences. ---Preceding unsigned comment added by you. Or maybe DatNuttyKid. 17:42, 1 February 2016 (EST)

I could reupload the image for you. But you'd have to add it in via preferences, like Nutta said. Aidan, the Wandering Space Warrior 17:44, 1 February 2016 (EST)

I have a window on preferences and [[1]] now, I use "siginclude"?

Nope never mind i did it Kirby's Crazy Appetite ~ 18:13, 1 February 2016 (EST) Almost. -.- Kirby's Crazy Appetite ~ 18:14, 1 February 2016 (EST)

You have to add a link and fix the size of the image. ---Preceding unsigned comment added by you. Or maybe DatNuttyKid. 18:16, 1 February 2016 (EST)

Is this correct Kirby's Crazy Appetite ~ 18:20, 1 February 2016 (EST)

Image is still a little big. Try putting 50x20px instead of 25px. ---Preceding unsigned comment added by you. Or maybe DatNuttyKid. 18:22, 1 February 2016 (EST)

OK (Also i need to talk to you on your talk page DNK) Kirby's Crazy Appetite ~ 18:27, 1 February 2016 (EST)

My edits

Today I edited Lucas earlier. And I just finished my Mario edit! Serpent King, after reading it, tell me if you like it and if my chances of becoming an admin have increased very slightly.Swagman (talk) 20:20, 1 February 2016 (EST)

P.S. DatNuttyKid, start using a signature. Everyone has to. A little note for the future.Swagman (talk) 20:27, 1 February 2016 (EST)

I am using a signature. And if you have a message for me, you should leave it on my message wall, not someone else's. ---Preceding unsigned comment added by you. Or maybe DatNuttyKid. 20:28, 1 February 2016 (EST)

Also, yours is too big. 25px tall tops Serpent King 20:29, 1 February 2016 (EST)

Even still, 2 edits is nothing. Adminship requires a whole lot more than 2 edits. It requires leadership skills, conflict resolution, etc, etc. Serpent King 20:30, 1 February 2016 (EST)

Yeah.....................................................................Swagman (talk) 20:34, 1 February 2016 (EST)

You didn't fix the picture. Change it from 25px to 50x20px. ---Preceding unsigned comment added by you. Or maybe DatNuttyKid. 20:36, 1 February 2016 (EST)

I haven't felt right...Swagman (talk) 20:44, 1 February 2016 (EST)

...Okay? What does that mean? ---Preceding unsigned comment added by you. Or maybe DatNuttyKid. 21:05, 1 February 2016 (EST)

Dude calm down. You'll never become an admin with this attitude. To be precise, you become an admin once you do a large number of edits that are productive, you have to help many users and collaborate on several projects (like uploading images for every smasher in the SSBMRank or writing the technical data about every move of a fighter), and most importantly, be very active. But to become one, you must not stalk other admins. Becasuse seriously, King is not the only admin, there are other admins as well that are also active, like Nyargle and Miles. OT is also a reliable admin, but he isn't too active.

Now look at me. I've made a decent amount of edits, a huge number of them are productive, I've uploaded some images to help update the wiki, and you can see them here. And I'm not showing off, in fact I'm still not an admin, not even a rollbacker. This is because and while the difference between our two accounts is noticeable, I'm still new for the wiki's standards. Like you, my number of edits isn't still noticeable like an admin. Meanwhile, King and Nyargle made their accounts since roughly 2014, and Milesis an admin since 2008, and all of them have made a huge number of edits, with most of them being very productive.

It's a pretty damn long way to become an admin son, but it's not impossible. Simply put, you just need to be an efficient and good user for a long time...-- The 70's called. They said BeepYou was here :v (talk) 21:17, 1 February 2016 (EST)

Miles has been an admin since 2008 so...yeah. Serpent King 21:26, 1 February 2016 (EST)

Wow, I never knew Miles was an admin since 2008. I thought it was since 2010. Corrected it then...-- The 70's called. They said BeepYou was here :v (talk) 21:29, 1 February 2016 (EST)

Admin noticeboard

Ganonmew just archived the administrator noticeboard, so the protection settings need fixed :P ---Preceding unsigned comment added by you. Or maybe DatNuttyKid. 16:08, 2 February 2016 (EST)

33 KB!

You may wanna archive soon. Penro, the and main. 16:21, 2 February 2016 (EST)

Xerneas image

Any reason it needs to have the old name? I know it doesn't really matter, just wondering. Tepig (talk) 12:21, 3 February 2016 (EST)

It's part of someone else's signature (even though that isn't allowed, this is why btw). Serpent King 18:56, 3 February 2016 (EST)

Why?

You banned me. Why did you ban me? Am I banned permanently?Swagman (talk) 23:15, 3 February 2016 (EST)

See your talk page. Serpent King 23:19, 3 February 2016 (EST)

Is XL.... not....not human?Swagman (talk) 23:22, 3 February 2016 (EST)

thank you

Poultry (talk) the fluffy 10:48, 5 February 2016 (EST)

Oh thank you :P Serpent King 19:01, 5 February 2016 (EST)

this also applies to NB Poultry(talk) the fluffy 19:30, 5 February 2016 (EST)

You should tell him that then :P Serpent King 19:31, 5 February 2016 (EST)

Your better than a star, your a COMET Kirby's Crazy Appetite ~ 19:37, 5 February 2016 (EST)

You're too much, thank you ^_^ Serpent King 19:41, 5 February 2016 (EST)

It's part of my charm. Kirby's Crazy Appetite ~ 19:45, 5 February 2016 (EST)

When you don't add your signature

Do you need to point out it is a preceding unsigned comment? Or do you just put your sig before someone notices it? On a side note, do you ever think I'll get over my grammar issues?? -- The 70's called. They said BeepYou was here :v (talk) 02:15, 8 February 2016 (EST)

Nah, you can just put it in as long as someone doesn't get you with the unsigned template first. Serpent King 02:16, 8 February 2016 (EST)

Then why did I did this?? I can undo it right?? -- The 70's called. They said BeepYou was here :v (talk) 02:26, 8 February 2016 (EST)

Yeah sure. Serpent King 02:29, 8 February 2016 (EST)

I should stop being harsh with me. BTW, how can I know which are my unsigned comments? -- The 70's called. They said BeepYou was here :v (talk) 02:31, 8 February 2016 (EST)

Well hopefully you won't have too many that you can't keep track. If you have comments that are unsigned from a long time ago, you can't sign them (have to use unsigned template) :P Serpent King 02:36, 8 February 2016 (EST)

Oh. -- BeepYou, a user with no grammar at all :v (talk) 02:40, 8 February 2016 (EST)
