Design Request
Hey, JoePlay, it's Tim from the Third Turn. I have got a lot of feedback for your front page redesign, so another million thank yous for your help there. I was wondering if you could help design a scheme that would replace some ugly headers on the Third Turn. I hope that would be quick and simple; let me show you what I am talking about:. I would like to replace the level heading "Modifieds" with something sleek yet big, so that there aren't five or six level headers running across the page (since in the end, most drivers will have at least 3 level headers). I was thinking maybe going back to how you had done the word "Third Turn" in the chrome style? Have "Modifieds" chromified to say "Modifieds Statistics"? Does that make sense.

There is no real urgency to this, but I would greatly appreciate it, considering you did such a great job last time (the curse, eh? Do so well that people ask you for help again). Best regards, --DaNASCAT 05:30, 6 April 2009 (UTC)

Hello! I appreciate the offer you left me yesterday. At this time however, I am a little bit overwhelmed with school, my newborn daughter and my application as a voulenteer at the hospital in my community. While I cannot devote the time I would love to devote to keeping up with the wiki, I can keep an eye on the page I am making. If I happen along any sections that I am able to make current, I can do that as well. Should anything change in the near future, I will certainly let you know!

Again, thank you for the offer!

Images on Ratchet & Clank wiki.
Hi! I would need help. See, the logos of the games have images and they can be seen in this page. I have edited some of the logos using paint quickly and the boarders are not good. So could you help me? You would only need to take the logos from these images:

And upload them here:


 * w:c:ratchet:Image:GoingMobile.jpg
 * w:c:ratchet:Image:CloneHome.jpg
 * w:c:ratchet:Image:Future.jpg

Also, notice that the "Going Mobile" logo is alligned strangly. Could you allign it like this:

Oh, and if you don't mind, could you delete the black boarders from these images:

Hi! I would only need little help. Could you remove the black boarders of http://ratchet.wikia.com/wiki/File:French.gif Thanks! HiQu (My talk) 09:37, 1 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Thanks! HiQu (My talk) 16:08, 1 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Oh, could you change the file back to its original width and height (reason: used in template)? (I can't because I only have Microsoft Paint software which makes the colors strange when editing a .jpg or .gif file.) HiQu (My talk) 16:13, 1 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Thanks again! I have some files which would need removing the edges. Some of them are used in FA archive and some are used in an FA itself. (The pages are mixed with different colors of edges and no edges) I don't really care about the normal files but I would really like the FA files to be clean. So would you like to remove them (the edges)? If so the files are:

 * http://ratchet.wikia.com/wiki/File:Al.png


 * Ok, yes, that wasn't the one used in archives so it wasn't that necessary to do. But thanks a lot! HiQu (My talk) 11:25, 2 May 2009 (UTC)

Embedded objects with HTML
Is it possible? Is there some kind of edit that needs to be made to activate full HTML in a Wiki article? --AeronPrometheus 13:51, 1 May 2009 (UTC)

Spotlight Image Problem
Hello Master Joeplay! Sir, I have a problem with the Spotlight image of the Club Penguin Fan Fiction Wiki. I really don't know how to put it... but... it's insulting to the theme of the database. I apologize for the criticism, but a lot of us down there just hate it. You see, the CPFW is more than just the island of Club Penguin. It's ALL of Antarctica in a huge CP theme. An orange penguin on a sled does not capture ANYTHING about our database. In fact, it should be for the real-world version, the REAL Club Penguin Wiki, not the fanon one. We held a competition to submit an image to the Wikia spotlights, and we were all terribly disappointed to see the spotlight image we saw. Could you head on down and use one of our submitted images instead of the sledding penguin you have now? Also, we never see our image on the rotation anymore, what happened to it? Thank you for the considerations, Master JoePlay.

Turtleshroom, Thanks for the feedback! You should be happy to know that the CPFW spotlight served over 10 million impressions throughout the Wikia Gaming vertical. While we appreciate the spotlight contest, and all the effort the CPFW put in making them, we create our own spotlights, that adhere to our branding guidelines. After we clear through the que of spotlight requests from communities that have been on hold, we would be more than happy to create a new CPFW spotlight that the community is happy with.

Problems with something I'm trying to do on Gearspedia
Hi Joe, long time no see. I'm tryin to the little symbols in the top right hand corner of an article, (in the title line), that tell you what games the subject appeared in etc. This page on the Fallout Wiki is a good example: see the little images that say "Fallout", "Fallout 2", etc? They're what I mean. I have tried to copy the code from the templates that make this work (on the Fallout Wiki; Template:Games and Template:Gameicon and what I think is the relevent code from the MediaWiki:Common.css file. However it just won't work. I have also tried the code from Halopedia (Template:Era and Template:Eraicon) and Wookiepedia (Template:Era and Template:Eraicon), and their respective MediaWiki:Common.css codes. Each one was different in one way or another, but it still won't work. It's driving me crazy, I hate being totally stumped by something. What am I doing, or have done, wrong? Thanks, --EightyOne (talk) 11:50, 13 May 2009 (UTC)


 * I have just added the code from the Fallout Wiki MediaWiki:Common.js, but still nothing. I have tried it with and without the code from the Common.css. Have I made a mistake in the Gameicon template? I change large sections of this to make it relevent to Gearspedia, so I could have removed something important by accident. The images that I have used in the template are just temporary, to see if it works. --EightyOne (talk) 17:54, 13 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Joe, thank you so so much! I saw those  tags and wondered if they were meant to be there, but thought that they must be. If you don't mind my asking, how did you learn things like .css, javascript, and the more complex wiki functions? I looked all over wiki help for info on these kind of things but never really found what I was looking for. Did you know it before you went to work with Wikia, or did they teach you? Once again, thanks so much, --EightyOne (talk) 18:39, 13 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Always a pleasure to have you helping! Thanks for the tips. I know what you mean about learning new things being interesting. Gearspedia is the first (and only) wiki I have properly been involved in. I have learnt so much just for fiddling around and using the preview button alot. I now spend more time messing around with templates and the MediaWiki files than making mainspace edits other than copyediting! I'm always interested to learn more about how they work. Anyway, thanks again for all your help. --EightyOne (talk) 19:22, 13 May 2009 (UTC)

____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Joe, I'm so sorry to bother you again, but there's a problem. Take a look at these pages: Dominic Santiago, Skorge, and Queen Myrrah. The icons push down a section of the page. In addition, the images on the Marcus Fenix article have not changed to the new ones (I have refreshed the browser cache). --EightyOne (talk) 19:49, 13 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Joe, Porter21 has fixed the problem. The noinclude> tag was too far down the template, leaving a gap which somehow was causing the icons to stack. Thanks for all your help and sorry for any hassle this has caused you. Thanks, --EightyOne (talk) 10:54, 14 May 2009 (UTC)

I love you for that

New skin + logo for The Sims Wiki
I can't access the preview. --a_morris (talk) 20:11, 22 May 2009 (UTC)
 * I like it. However, I have already begun a community wide logo contest, so I couldn't accept your logo without going through the submission and voting process. You can submit your logo here. --a_morris (talk) 13:27, 23 May 2009 (UTC)
 * I was thinking of starting the voting next month, which means the logo won't be chosen before The Sims 3 is released on June 2, so it might be better to change the skin earlier. --a_morris (talk) 20:41, 23 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Either the 1st or 2nd of June would be a good time for the skin to go live. --a_morris (talk) 21:14, 25 May 2009 (UTC)

Creative Common nc License
Hi JoePlay, this is Reinhart77 from the Castlevania Wiki. I recently started posting some images that I've found under the creative common licenses. Most people who use these licenses put in a clause "nc" or "non-commercial" and "nd" or "non-derivative". I looked at those and thought "I'm not doing this to make money" and "I'm not altering the images in any way, just adding them to a gallery and giving a proper credit and link back to the author's original page". Then when I started doing some searches for Castlevania related images on Google, I ran across some information about how Wiki Media is now handling creative commons licenses which have "nc" or "nd" clauses in them. It makes it very clear that you're not supposed to upload any images with those clauses. I'm not sure about what Wikia's policy is though. I don't think of adding content to a wiki as a commercial application, but I suppose wikia itself is making money from ads on its site, so it is getting some kind of commercial use out of any contents. I see all sorts of pages that say Wikia is using the GFDL license and that they are not compatible, but I also ran across a page "http://www.wikia.com/wiki/Creative_Commons", which is confusing me. It says "As of June 2005, all sister projects of Wikia are licensed under the CC-BY-NC-SA." Is this implying in some way that we may upload content under an nc license, or is that just wishful thinking on my part? Anyways, I guess I want to know if I need to take down all my nc/nd images I just uploaded or else contact each artist and get explicit permission to host the file. Here are two examples, one from flicker and another from Deviant Art. Thanks, --Reinhart77 20:27, 23 May 2009 (UTC)

Thanks a bunch. That was a pretty quick response considering it was Memorial weekend.--Reinhart77 04:25, 27 May 2009 (UTC)

Re: StarCraft outreach
Announcing the contest at SC2Pod's community tracker would probably draw a lot of attention. They use some sort of RSS feed system. I'm in close communication with StarCraft Legacy, and sometimes deal with Shadowie (from SC2pod), StarCraft.org, Blizzplanet and StarCraft2Forum. (Starfeeder and SC2Blog have both occasionally posted stuff on the wiki too.) I'll have to establish a tighter communication network, and send you those email addresses. PSH aka Kimera 757 (talk) 22:42, 26 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Shadowie didn't give his email address but I can still PM him on SC2pod. He had this to say: "If you guys got some rss feed only for news, just send that url and I can add you to the tracker as well." PSH aka Kimera 757 (talk) 23:04, 27 May 2009 (UTC)


 * How does the RSS feed know which are "new" articles and which aren't? (That'll help in designing the page and/or template.) PSH aka Kimera 757 (talk) 01:42, 28 May 2009 (UTC)

Request for adminship on Bioshock wikia

Logos
Over at Atlanta Thrashers Wiki and we like a logo please. I tried with a logo but did not go through. The Logo is on the Main Page and it needs Thrashers Wiki underneath with the team colors. Also, over at Ice Hockey Wiki (Russian) needs a logo as well. We prefer a hockey puck with Russian language of Ice Hockey Wiki in the center with white lettering.
