Halopedia
Greetings, I am Spartan 1138 of Halopedia. I was looking over the anti-vandal items that was presented by you guys. I disagree with them but that isn't what I am here to talk about. In my opinion the page for the Anit Vandal Coalition doesn't encourage the act of vandalism. I think it is the people who go on the vandal's talk page and say stuff like 'you vandals are all dumb and you're going down'. Another user and I have brainstormed some ideas on how to make the AVC more in line with Central's ideas. Here is the idea page: http://halo.wikia.com/index.php?title=Forum:Ideas_for_the_preservation_of_the_AVC&t=20070404222635

I would value your opinions and would love any ideas you may have--Spartan 1138 00:17, 5 April 2007 (UTC)

Help is always good :)

Half-Life Needs Help
Do you remember me from places like Halopedia and House? If not, ohh well. Anyways, i wanted to contact you about giving me Bureaucrat access to the (en) Half-Life wikia. It's currently dead, 11 articles, no sysops, almost no editors. I saw it today and i would like to fix it up. I'm sure i could get people like RR to help me. I already know how to be an admin, as I'm an admin of the Halo Fanon Wikia. I'm a great member and editor of Halopedia, just ask anyone there, I'm even their Halopedian of the Month. Within two months of my joining of Halopedia, i have almost 3000 edits. I've played the Half-Life games, i know there's a big following for the game, the people just don't know about the Half-Life wikia. So, can you help me out?

Thank you very much. I'll do my best to get the site back on track.

Actually, i do have one question though. How can i get the Half-Life Wiki Logo changed? Right now it's just the central wiki logo, i'd like to make it something a little more Half-Life(ish).

PS: I'll get working on the game listing right away.

Hey, i hate to keep bothering you like this, but i have one more issue. How can I remove a user's admin power? And if i can't, could you do it for me? I made RR an admin of the Half-Life because he said he'd work on the MediaWiki templates, etc. He has yet to really do anything overthere. I'd like to take back his admin powers, he isn't doing anything other than average user stuff, he doesn't need admin there. I'm afraid he may just have wanted the title of being an "admin" of another wiki. Could you help me out? There are other users there that deserve admin powers more than RR.

Quick Help in the ER Wiki
Hello again, Catherine!

The worst of my out-of-wiki responsibilities have passed, so I'm returning to spending more time working on my server's community and the Earthen Ring wiki.

One problem that has always irritated is in the biobox template. The box is, by coding, 250px wide, and all images inserted into the info box are resized to fit into it properly; however, text does not wrap in the box, sometimes grossly distorting its width. Is there a way to automatically wrap text within the box?

Thanks for the help!

 * Thanks for the help, Catherine! That should help immensely.  (Now I just have to remove the line breaks from the old Biobox pages.)


 * As a note, the Infobox Biography is the older template for the same function. All new pages are created with the Biobox.  In time, we're going to move all character pages to the Biobox and phase out the old format, entirely.  The change is one of the first goals for the new character page sysops, who will be brought in over the next week or so with the rest of the staff reformation.


 * By the way, I forget: Was a way to place a background image into tables ever discovered for use in the new Storyhead template?

Orionsarm
I think you misunderstood what Orion's Arm is. Orion's Arm already has a lot of content and does not need a wiki. I was requesting a wiki for projects related to Orion's Arm, but I will try on Novelas first. Eyu100 18:21, 12 April 2007 (UTC)

Licenses
The Earthen Ring Wiki is currently protected by the GNU FDL, just like many of the Wikia wikis. However, after reviewing the document I feel that it may not entirely protect the works of our users as well as they could be. The GNU site suggested the Free Art License for artworks. I feel it may more adequately protect the content on our wiki, the majority of which being comprised of original works and not really fitting the spirit of the GNU Free Document License.

What do you think about this? Would this cause us more complications, or better protect the creative works of our users? Would there be a way to protect our site with the FAL, and make that apparent in the same way as the FDL is placed on other wikis?

Heroes Wiki -- Thank you
Catherine, I wanted to thank you for your comments at User talk:75.80.137.192. I'm an administrator at heroeswiki.com, and many of our users were appalled at the vandalism for which one of our members was responsible. I replied to your comments and echo your sentiments. If you have any questions, you can contact me at this link. Thanks! Ryangibsonstewart 08:22, 21 April 2007 (UTC)

Landing page
I liked your idea for a Landing page on the community test wiki. I fixed the IE glitch there which caused the searchbox to be thrown to the right. It reminds me of wanting to make something that looked nice as a portal for the 4 corners of the WGEP whenever the WGEP got a home wiki above the other wiki in the project. But I liked that idea there enough that I think I'm going to borrow that page and combine it with the PD help from MediaWiki.org which is on the Animepedia to make a nice new Help page. ~Dantman(talk) tricks Apr 24, 2007 @ 06:59 (UTC)
