Re Homeworld Wikia

 * Let me be first one to make edit here :)
 * So... Thanks for the news! I should clean up a bit out there, hehe :) I was wondering - if you perhaps know any hints for keeping editors for a longer while on my wikia. I've got quite lot of ppl who come, make edits in 1-2 days, and then go away - what isn't cool :( I think I made everything I could - greeting new visitors, making forum, creating news, helping people as fast as I can... still no results good :/ Maybe there are some things I could do to keep ppl at least for a week...

 * Skywalker, keeping editors interested is rather difficult :(, I would say things like posting welcome messages on their talk page to open a dialogue on what needs to get done on the wiki is a good start. It sounds like you're trying hard, so it could just be the game(s) or the editors. Let's see if we can get some good editors with the spotlight. Also, you might want to try recruiting in the official forums or talk to Relic for some links. BTW, I am more than happy to help you with Relic if need be :). -- Doug  (talk ) 15:41, 9 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Relic already featured Encyclopedia Hiigara on it's community links page - few nice words they wrote there :). I'm also advertising it on community forums, both English and Polish (as that's my native language). Well, hopefully spotlight will bring some fresh blood. ;) SkywalkerPL 16:34, 9 October 2008 (UTC)

Gaming wiki
Hi, I've been trying to create a wiki on various other hosts (gameapedia) for gaming reviews, strategies, guides and walkthroughs as well as character information etc. Basically one wiki for gaming information. The reason I haven't tried wikia (which is the best wiki host around in my opinion) is due to wikia gaming. All of these other hosts have really let me down, so I've decided to have a go at getting wikia to host it. I think it could be different to wikia gaming as wikia gaming seems to be a hub for other wikis, with some gaming content. I am doubtful that gameapedia can be created on wikia, but I thought that I may as well try, so I've left a message here to discuss with you before I try to request it. If you would like to discuss this more than please leave a message on my talk page or I might be in #swgames on the IRC. Many thanks, Hunterj | My talk 20:25, 9 October 2008 (UTC)
 * As an extra note, in my opinion gameapedia shouldn't host info on online games, just licensed PC, PS3, Xbox 360, Wii and the older consoles etc games.Hunterj | My talk 20:30, 9 October 2008 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure if you've not been around, if I'm being impatient, or if I didn't expalain my message properly (which is most likely) but I was talking to sannse who reccommended that I talk to you, as a member of the wikia gaming community, for your opinion of my idea before I try to request it. So if you get a chance could you please leave a message on my talk, or I might be in #R&C on the IRC. Many thanks, Hunterj | My talk 17:22, 13 October 2008 (UTC)

Hello
I am Nicmavr, and I work on the Greek halopedia here:http://el.halo.wikia.com/wiki/%CE%91%CF%81%CF%87%CE%B9%CE%BA%CE%AE_%CF%83%CE%B5%CE%BB%CE%AF%CE%B4%CE%B1

Anyways, I'm intersested in becoming a wikia helper, so, how and where would I do that?

 * Nicmavr, thanks for the interest. If you would like to email me at douglas at Wikia-inc.com, I will walk you through what we look for, and what responsibilities being a helper entails. Cheers! -- Doug (talk ) 18:54, 10 November 2008 (UTC)

StarCraft wiki flowchart templates
Hello. I'm the bureaucrat of the StarCraft wiki.

As you know, StarCraft II is coming out. One of the new features are very branched missions, which you can see here (the names are joke names currently) and I thought the wiki could use a flowchart template (with boxes that could link to the appropriate pages) to arrange them in the proper order when the game comes out.

I've been introduced to this flowchart template from MediaWiki and want to make a request to install it. Kimera 757 (talk) 03:04, 25 November 2008 (UTC)

Jumpgate Evolution Wiki Guidelines
At the Jumpgate Evolution wiki we're working on some editing guidelines. I wondered if could check them to see they aren't out of line with wikia's general guidelines. Thanks. --Lord Alderaan 16:41, 10 December 2008 (UTC)

Thanks
I just wanted to say: thanks!

Also, do you know where to go for technical issues? I've had a few, I did send em on to JoePlay but I have the suspicion he's a bit busy right now though he's been really helpful so far!

(by the way, spam filter is acting a bit funny:

What is
this? Central Wikia is inactive? &mdash; 17:19, 16 March 2009 (UTC)
 * a bug. Should have been promoted on Assassin's Creed, somehow affected Central. -- Doug (talk ) 17:43, 16 March 2009 (UTC)
 * I see. Nevermind. &mdash; [[Image:BalisticSig.png]] 21:02, 16 March 2009 (UTC)

StarCraft slideshow
I tried the first slideshow here:

It isn't working at the moment (neither is the preview), but I'll check that daily to see if it starts up. If so, I'll spread it to the StarCraft forums I visit. PSH aka Kimera 757 (talk) 22:16, 16 March 2009 (UTC)
 * I can't get any images to load :(...let me see what's up and I'll get back to you. -- Doug (talk ) 00:29, 17 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Bladebronson to the rescue, so you need to put in the image url (just click on the image until you can't click anymore,and that will be the image not the page url) also, try this code      <embed src="http://images.wikia.com/common/skins/common/flash_widgets/wikia_widget.swf" FlashVars="backgroundColor=336699&backgroundImage=&borderColor=333333&dropShadow=on&headerColor=000000&headerAlpha=.2&headerBorderColor=FFFFFF&headline1=StarCraft Wiki presents&headline1Color=CCCCCC&headline2=the protoss airforce!&headline2Color=FFFFFF&clickURL=http://starcraft.wikia.com&wikiURLColor=FFFFFF&wikiaLogoColor=FFFFFF&logo=http://images.wikia.com/starcraft/images/b/bc/Wiki.png&type=slideshow&slideshowImages= http://images1.wikia.nocookie.net/starcraft/images/3/3d/Phoenix_SC2_Rend1.jpg, http://images1.wikia.nocookie.net/starcraft/images/1/1d/VoidRay_SC2_Rend1.jpg, http://images4.wikia.nocookie.net/starcraft/images/0/02/Carrier_SC2_Cncpt1.jpg, http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/starcraft/images/7/71/Mothership_SC2_Game1.jpg&=Preview images in the widget&" quality="high" wmode="transparent" width="300" height="250" align="middle" allowScriptAccess="always" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" name="wikia_widget" /> -- Doug (talk ) 00:52, 17 March 2009 (UTC)

Demigod wiki
Hi, thanks for your messages (on both demigod and supcom). I don't think I'll be overwhelmed, as most players will be too busy actually playing the game than editing, so I think I'll be fine. If we need any help, I'll be sure to contact you. I've been on the forums, but under monarch_dodra. Happypal 07:55, 15 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Great, we put up a spotlight for you guys and we'll be around helping out. Cheers -- Doug (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 17:22, 15 April 2009 (UTC)

Re Assassins Creed Wikia
I would like to thank you for your willingness to help me create a new main page on Assassins Creed Wiki. I took a look at the links you gave me and I wouldn't mind a Main Page similar to that of Last Remnant Wiki. I will be inactive within the next week or so on the 4 Wiki's I am an Administrator on due to problems at home. Please don't hesitate to leave messages on any of my Talk pages s I will respond as soon as possible. --Hells Angel 12:47, 24 April 2009 (UTC)

Wikia Newsletter
As admin and frequent editor at the Burnout wiki, the newsletter gave me some great insight. I wanted to drop by tell you that your efforts are appreciated and that I'm looking forward to the next issue. Thanks, Exlonox 02:32, 1 May 2009 (UTC)
 * It said to tell you ideas - it didn't say where, so I thought I'd go here. I think the next Newsletter should say something about deprecated tags. The only reason they squeak by here is because the doctype here is transitional, not strict. Some examples, in case your not familar with them, are:


 * &lt;font&gt; tags. (A quick note - you have two in your sig)
 * "clear" attributes on &lt;br&gt; tags.
 * "bgcolor" attributes.
 * "width" attributes.
 * &lt;center&gt; tags.
 * "align" attributes.
 * All of this markup has been deprecated by the W3C in favor of CSS. I always feel horribly peeved by these things, and I feel more people should be aware of the problem. Ti m e ro o t T • C • E 00:21, 2 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Awesome, thanks for the feedback =0), I'll make sure to have a link to the most common markup issues, and include tags. -- <font color="Blue">Doug (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 17:26, 4 May 2009 (UTC)
