Oh why can't this wiki have a Template:Clear like Guildwiki? /sigh..  --[[User:Shadowcrest|Shadowcrest]] 04:14, 15 March 2008 (UTC)
#redirect [[User talk:Emmett]]
:Many wiki(a)s have them located at [[Template:Clr|T:Clr]], T:Clrl, and T:Clrr. :) --[[User:Sky2042|Sky]] ([[User talk:Sky2042|t]] · [[Special:Contributions/Sky2042|c]] · [[w:c:wow:User:Sky2042|w]]) 22:25, 16 March 2008 (UTC)
::Win! I've only used GuildWiki and other Guild Wars wikis, didn't know that. Thanks!  --[[User:Shadowcrest|Shadowcrest]] 20:36, 17 March 2008 (UTC)
 
== Fighter Pages ==
 
First of all, thanks for helping out with cleaning up the character pages.  Secondly, just so your not editing something that is going to go away soon, take a look at [[SmashWiki:Post-Merge Cleanup]] to see the format that all the fighter pages are going to be put in once I/we get enough time to do them all.  [[Falco (SSBB)]] and [[Meta Knight (SSBB)]] are already in this format.  [[User:Clarinet Hawk|Clarinet Hawk]] <small>([[User talk:Clarinet Hawk|talk]] · [[Special:Contributions/Clarinet Hawk|contributions]])</small> 14:07, 12 August 2008 (UTC)
:I had noticed the format on different characters was off. I'll work on it when I get the chance (eg now). --[[User:Shadowcrest|<font face="vivaldi" size="3" color="Steelblue">Shadowcrest</font>]] 02:50, 13 August 2008 (UTC)
:Or not, I apparently share an IP with GalaxiaD and have been banned until tomorrow. Unless Randall checks his email between now and then. Remind me to rant on the admin noticeboard (wherever it is) about not using the auto-block feature.  --[[User:Shadowcrest|<font face="vivaldi" size="3" color="Steelblue">Shadowcrest</font>]] 03:10, 13 August 2008 (UTC)
::Unfortunately, we have to use the auto-block feature because many of the vandals have a range of computers or a slightly variable IP.  Hitting with auto-blocks keeps them from just logging out after they are banned.  It's much easier than calculating a binary range block code, and most of the admins wouldn't even know what to do.  Plus, that can go wrong and lock out whole continents.  [[User:Clarinet Hawk|Clarinet Hawk]] <small>([[User talk:Clarinet Hawk|talk]] · [[Special:Contributions/Clarinet Hawk|contributions]])</small> 20:52, 13 August 2008 (UTC)
:::I have a perfectly reasonable and rational explanation in my head, but it doesn't look good on paper :<
:::On an unrelated note, who are the prominent members here? There are a couple sysops that I can think of, but other than that I don't know anyone but Entrea, GalaxiaD and Oxico (and they have both left, or so I hear). --[[User:Shadowcrest|<font face="vivaldi" size="3" color="Steelblue">Shadowcrest</font>]] 21:02, 13 August 2008 (UTC)
::::Well, [[User:Randall00|Randall00]] and I are the most active sysops on here.  I take care of a lot of the day to day work and gameplay information and Randall does a lot of the back end work, although we really do whatever is needed at any point in time.  [[User:Sky2042|Sky2042]] is another sysop, and he's probably the most knowledgeable about templates and MediaWiki type stuff.  Also, [[User:Silverdragon706|Silverdragon706]] is a sysop, but she hasn't been around as much lately.  The active non-sysops that I often work with are [[User:Gargomon251|Gargomon251]] and [[User:Wolf O'Donnell|Wolf O'Donnell]], as well as my [[SLAPAHO|crew]]mate [[User:Semicolon|Ax]].  [[User:Clarinet Hawk|Clarinet Hawk]] <small>([[User talk:Clarinet Hawk|talk]] · [[Special:Contributions/Clarinet Hawk|contributions]])</small> 21:09, 13 August 2008 (UTC)

go rant.  --[[User:Shadowcrest|<font face="vivaldi" size="3" color="Steelblue">Shadowcrest</font>]] 04:46, 13 August 2008 (UTC)
:And prepare for a policy invasion. Must set up for that too.  --[[User:Shadowcrest|<font face="vivaldi" size="3" color="Steelblue">Shadowcrest</font>]] 04:51, 13 August 2008 (UTC)
 
::Let me have a look at fixing the block. --[[User:Sky2042|Sky]] ([[User talk:Sky2042|t]] · [[Special:Contributions/Sky2042|c]] · [[w:c:wow:User:Sky2042|w]]) 16:46, 13 August 2008 (UTC)
::Should be fixed. --[[User:Sky2042|Sky]] ([[User talk:Sky2042|t]] · [[Special:Contributions/Sky2042|c]] · [[w:c:wow:User:Sky2042|w]]) 16:52, 13 August 2008 (UTC)
:::Still blocked. #818, if you need it.  --[[User:Shadowcrest|<font face="vivaldi" size="3" color="Steelblue">Shadowcrest</font>]] 16:54, 13 August 2008 (UTC)
:::To clarify, only my IP is banned. My account is fine. Since Galaxia and I share(d) an IP, autoblock banned my IP for a day, and I am thus unable to contribute outisde my talk page.  --[[User:Shadowcrest|<font face="vivaldi" size="3" color="Steelblue">Shadowcrest</font>]] 17:09, 13 August 2008 (UTC)
::::Well, that stinks. (By the way, Hi!) I must be missing something here, what with mostly being outside the community here, but... what exactly got Galaxia (and, by extension, you) banned at all?[[User:Entrea Sumatae|<span style="color:#4682b4">'''–Entrea Sumatae'''</span>]] 17:38, 13 August 2008 (UTC)
:::::Hi Entrea! How'd you find me here? You weren't even on IRC when I brought SSBwikia up.
:::::I'm not quite sure, really. I think it involved him being a prick to someone who was an admin and they blocked him for it. Oh, and it might have also involved impersonating a user (who I think was an admin, and the same admin at that). Except for the impersonation, would you agree that would not have happened on guildwiki?  --[[User:Shadowcrest|<font face="vivaldi" size="3" color="Steelblue">Shadowcrest</font>]] 17:48, 13 August 2008 (UTC)
::::::I found you here because I RC patrol here too. I usually just correct facts and such, mostly ignoring talkpages and such except for rumors or stuff that are up for deletion. As for what happened, I still have no idea what event sparked it, but I'm sure as hell that a 3-month ban for a first block wouldn't last more than a couple hours on GuildWiki before someone overruled it.[[User:Entrea Sumatae|<span style="color:#4682b4">'''–Entrea Sumatae'''</span>]] 17:56, 13 August 2008 (UTC)
:::::::It's odd that on GWiki I don't do a lot of mainspace overhauls and crusades, but here I am planning on cleaning up a bunch of stuff. Did you know this place merged with Wikia like we did? And they all hate monaco? If I could figure out how to change the logo, I'd give them the "monobookization" customization Pan/Jedi/May did.
:::::::Unless it was Raptors (raa!) a 3 month ban would never have passed, I agree. I also saw a threat to ban anyone who disagreed with the blocking of Galaxia- am I correct in saying that that would have resulting in possibly a consequence as severe as desysoption on Guildwiki?
:::::::Do you think it would be a good idea to import a bunch of our commonly referred to policies? NPA, 1RV, maybe YAV, AGF, AUNC (users not content)? And the admin noticeboard.  --[[User:Shadowcrest|<font face="vivaldi" size="3" color="Steelblue">Shadowcrest</font>]] 18:02, 13 August 2008 (UTC)
::::::::I'm not sure it would be a cause for desysoption (unless they actually carried out the threat): everyone overreacts sometimes.
::::::::And I did know about the Wikia merge (except they actually did ''merge'', Wikia didn't have a Guild Wars wiki when we were absorbed). And if they don't like Monoco, showing them how to monobookize would be great. And yes, every wiki should have the exact same policies and stuff as ours, but it's probably unneeded to do a major overhaul.[[User:Entrea Sumatae|<span style="color:#4682b4">'''–Entrea Sumatae'''</span>]] 18:14, 13 August 2008 (UTC)
::::::::Also, stupid line.[[User:Entrea Sumatae|<span style="color:#4682b4">'''–Entrea Sumatae'''</span>]] 18:16, 13 August 2008 (UTC)
:::::::::Since I can't post anywhere other than my talkpage, I have to do everything here until I'm unblocked. Including importing policies, test revision of the Zelda (SSBB) article, and any other main/wikispace action I would have taken until then. I'm separating the talk from the policy with (you guessed it) a line. I hate licensing. A lot. Why couldn't guildwiki be GFDL?!? :(  --[[User:Shadowcrest|<font face="vivaldi" size="3" color="Steelblue">Shadowcrest</font>]] 18:20, 13 August 2008 (UTC)
::::::::::I'm sure there must be some way to have our customizations without our logo (Smashwiki with Guildwiki logo in the corner lol), so I'm going to find it.[[User:Entrea Sumatae|<span style="color:#4682b4">'''–Entrea Sumatae'''</span>]] 18:29, 13 August 2008 (UTC)
:::::::::::The simplest way would be to ask Pan, but he hasn't been seen in quite some time. --[[User:Shadowcrest|<font face="vivaldi" size="3" color="Steelblue">Shadowcrest</font>]] 18:34, 13 August 2008 (UTC)
Easy. Copy [http://guildwars.wikia.com/wiki/MediaWiki:Monaco.css] to it's SmashWiki counterpart (Or your monaco.css). Monobook background looks a little wierd with Beach, but that can be changed.[[User:Entrea Sumatae|<span style="color:#4682b4">'''–Entrea Sumatae'''</span>]] 18:35, 13 August 2008 (UTC)
:Way to edit conflict me. That's basically what I was going to say. We'd have to persuade smashwiki to set the same code but with their logo as their default to import it. I think.  --[[User:Shadowcrest|<font face="vivaldi" size="3" color="Steelblue">Shadowcrest</font>]] 18:37, 13 August 2008 (UTC)
::The code there will use SmashWiki's own code. On my own .css, I fixed the colors too. It has the right colors and logo, so anyone who likes the monobooco skin can just copy (or import) that. By the way, monobooco is now the official name for the Monoco/Monobook hybrid.[[User:Entrea Sumatae|<span style="color:#4682b4">'''–Entrea Sumatae'''</span>]] 18:44, 13 August 2008 (UTC)
:::According to who? Lol
:::I'd test importing your page, but I probably can't edit my own monaco.css. Anti-lol.  --[[User:Shadowcrest|<font face="vivaldi" size="3" color="Steelblue">Shadowcrest</font>]] 18:52, 13 August 2008 (UTC)
 
You should be unblocked now.  [[User:Clarinet Hawk|Clarinet Hawk]] <small>([[User talk:Clarinet Hawk|talk]] · [[Special:Contributions/Clarinet Hawk|contributions]])</small> 20:36, 13 August 2008 (UTC)

:I am auto blocked, once again. #857.  --[[User:Shadowcrest|<font face="vivaldi" size="3" color="Steelblue">Shadowcrest</font>]] 02:14, 15 August 2008 (UTC)
:Posting so I can add an edit summary to make this request more visible.  --[[User:Shadowcrest|<font face="vivaldi" size="3" color="Steelblue">Shadowcrest</font>]] 02:16, 15 August 2008 (UTC)
::Lol. SmashWiki hates you.[[User:Entrea Sumatae|<span style="color:#4682b4">'''–Entrea Sumatae'''</span>]] 02:19, 15 August 2008 (UTC)
:::The rant in my head is getting better by the second ;)  --[[User:Shadowcrest|<font face="vivaldi" size="3" color="Steelblue">Shadowcrest</font>]] 02:20, 15 August 2008 (UTC)
::::Thanks Charitwo.  --[[User:Shadowcrest|<font face="vivaldi" size="3" color="Steelblue">Shadowcrest</font>]] 02:27, 15 August 2008 (UTC)
 
== Signature Font ==
 
If you don't mind me asking, which font do you use for your signature? ([[User:Wolf O'Donnell|Wolf O'Donnell]] <small>([[User talk:Wolf O'Donnell|talk]] · [[Special:Contributions/Wolf O'Donnell|contributions]])</small> 07:28, 15 August 2008 (UTC))
:Just edit the page and look at his coding. (FYI, it's "Vivaldi")[[User:Entrea Sumatae|<span style="color:#4682b4">'''–Entrea Sumatae'''</span>]] 15:45, 15 August 2008 (UTC)
::Yes, it's vivaldi. Back on GuildWiki, I started using this font, and then like 8 other people started to use it :P
::You're welcome to use it as well.  --[[User:Shadowcrest|<font face="vivaldi" size="3" color="Steelblue">Shadowcrest</font>]] 19:19, 15 August 2008 (UTC)
