Main page movement
Hi after an edit i made to remove the nasty redirect link that appear when entering the main page, User:Uberfuzzy correct me by creating the page MediaWiki:Mainpage‎ and putting the name of the new main page there. So i recommend if you continue changing main pages names to follow this procedure --Cizagna (Talk) 05:44, 13 January 2009 (UTC)

Tom Clancy Wiki
Hey Joe, first off I would like to thank you for the help over on our wiki, the Logo you created is PERFECT, I really think it suits us well and looks just like a canonical Tom Clancy site, Great work. One minor problem is that it's a tad to big and overlaps a tiny section of the top tabs. I would take care of it myself but the admin for our site doesn't pop on that much which leaves me with no sys op status to work on everything so I never was directed to a guide of how to do these things.
 * Second, the TCW skin. I like Monaco a lot, I think it has a lot of great features, but the load time for me and a couple other users is unbareable. I make too many edits to wait even 20 seconds between every preview. Is there any way that we can make a Monaco skin that works a little faster and includes the page going all the way to the right instead of being stopped by the image advertisments? Also is Monaco the only skin that is customizable? I like modern a lot but have been running into some problems with editing while using it, just wondering before I make a final choice! Other than that you are doing a great job and I think you wikia workers are fantastic (other than other computer workers that cost $30 just to speek to!)-- 01:34, 17 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Got ya, same time zone so I'll be on a little earlier in case you need to ask a question or something like that. Monobook would be great, you could call it Tom Clancy Book or TomClancybook or something like that. If it's not to much work I was wondering if you could make it kinda like the "Lostbook" on Lostpedia (not sure if it's against the rules). They have a great version of Monobook that works "REALLY" fast even on the slowest computers/browsers and would be great for every one. (I do like Monaco, i just don't have a great computer and kinda like to look for the people in my position but you guys did a good job on it).--[http://tomclancy.wikia.com/wiki/User_talk:JamesTFord1987
 * Hey it looks great, it's just what I was looking for, the colors fit good with the light blue as well. One problem I have found is that the top tabs jump down about an inch or two into the page/article. It would be great if you could take a look. I also hate to be picky, but Lostpedia made their "Monobook" skin so the two side advertisments were gone and it spread the page layout all the way to the right just like the modern skin. Just wondering if this is something you know how to do or can look into for me. Thanks for all the help.-- 03:16, 18 January 2009 (UTC)

Hi
Hello, could you make a Wiki-shrinkable image for the Ratchet & Clank Wiki. Take a look at Wookieepedia's wiki-shrinkable image and get some ideas. Lombax Jerk | My talk 05:19, 17 January 2009 (UTC)

Template Problem
Hi Joe, its EightyOne from the Gears of War wiki. I was asked to help create templates on a new Gears of War Fanon wiki, which I agreed to, but I can't get the template code to work. I have tried the code from both the Gears of War wiki 'Weapon Template' and the Halo Fanon 'Weapon Template'. For some reason the template does not work on the GoW fanon wiki. I think ther is a template missing from the fanon wiki that is required for the code to work properly, but I cannot fathom what. Sorry to disturb you, but your the only wiki helper I really know! Thanks. EightyOne 19:40 17/01/2009 (UTC)
 * Sorry Joe, but they still don't work. The wiki does not seem to recognise that they are templates. When you put all the info for the template in, it just comes up as what you raw code, not as a template. Look here to see what I mean. Sorry to disturb you but I don't really know what I'm doing. Everything I knpw about wiki code is what I have pecied together though trial and error and reading the occasional instruction page on wikipedia. How did you learn it all? Thanks again. --EightyOne (talk) 01:40, 18 January 2009 (UTC)

request for adminship
for [] on Gearspedia please and thank you.--Jack Black 05:26, 18 January 2009 (UTC)


 * Hey Joe it's Jack just stopping by as a friendly reminder that I am still waiting if Screenameless can get Adminship for Gearspedia.--Jack Black 17:58, 25 January 2009 (UTC)

GT Wiki-again
Hey, I was just thinkin'-you know how the Pro Wrestling Wiki has several different banners in circulation at once? If we had stuff like "Nissan GT-R at Gran Turismo Wiki" or "GTbyCitroen at Gran Turismo Wiki", and have them all in the lineup at the same time, we'd get more exposure! -- Gp 75 motorsports REV LIMITER GT-PT/GT-EN/CSW 14:04, 21 January 2009 (UTC)
 * OK, I think it should be Lotus Evora at Gran Turismo Wiki, GTbyCitroen at Gran Turismo Wiki, Nissan GT-R at Gran Turismo Wiki, Chevrolet Camaro Concept at Gran Turismo Wiki, and Art Morrison Chevy Corvette at Gran Turismo Wiki. I'll ping you when the articles are done so you can get to work on them. -- Gp 75 motorsports REV LIMITER GT-PT/GT-EN/CSW 13:59, 23 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Alright, we're ready. Here is a list of those articles. You probably should use the images provided for them. -- Gp 75 motorsports REV LIMITER GT-PT/GT-EN/CSW 23:27, 28 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Woah. That's awesome. I don't know what to say besides great job! -- Gp 75 motorsports REV LIMITER GT-PT/GT-EN/CSW 16:13, 30 January 2009 (UTC)
 * OK. What about the first one to go in to rotation? Will that stay up too or will it be taken down to make room for the new ones? -- Gp 75 motorsports REV LIMITER GT-PT/GT-EN/CSW 15:56, 3 February 2009 (UTC)

Lombaxpedia
Hi. The Ratchet & Clank wiki is changing it's name to Lombapedia on the 21st of February. I was wondering if you could change our logo to say Lombaxpedia rather then the Ratchet & Clank wiki in time. Ideally we'd like the logo to say Lombaxpedia at the top, and then the Ratchet & Clank wiki (in smaller writing) at the bottom but due to space I don't think this'll be possible. Anything you can do would be appreciated. As far as coloring goes, if the Ratchet & Clank wiki can fit on the logo then the colors can stay the same for that bit, but we'd like Lombaxpedia to be colored with shades of brown, similar to the ones in this image. Please contact me if you have any questions or anything. Many thanks, Hunterj | My talk 19:45, 21 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Thanks, especially for being so quick! Hunterj | My talk 17:04, 22 January 2009 (UTC)

Blargpedia
Hello, could you make a wiki logo and wiki-shrinkable logo for Blargpedia, the Ratchet & Clank Humor wiki. Thanks. lombax Jerk 08:46, 23 January 2009 (UTC)

RE:Blargpedia
Here it is. As for the logo and wiki-shrinkable, could you write Blargipedia instead of Blargpedia, because I'm having it renamed. Lombax Jerk | My talk 22:43, 23 January 2009 (UTC)
