Adoption
Hi Ajraddatz,

Thank you for your help providing some on the Adoption requests page when we got behind in answering them last week; I appreciate your kindness. However, we would prefer to let staff and helpers answer requests on this page. Thanks! — Catherine (talk) 00:15, September 9, 2009 (UTC)

Your Monaco.js
See this page on Central. No need to create your custom js on every wiki you edit ;)-- Austin (Talk) 21:37, November 20, 2009 (UTC)
 * Thanks, forgot about that one :) Ajraddatz Talk 21:38, November 20, 2009 (UTC)

IRC
Hi! Charitwo told me that you know a user who has troubles with German wikis. How can I help him? Regards, Marc-Philipp (MtaÄ)   (Talk)  17:55, November 28, 2009 (UTC)

Rich text editor beta testing
Morning! You expressed an interest in beta testing the editor on My LEGO Network - are you still up for this? Where is the best place to announce/talk about this on that wiki? 14:03, December 1, 2009 (UTC)

I did
I did tell him how, but he couldn't figure out where to go. Then I supplied him a link (it was the right link), but that didn't work. I am just going to ask wikia to make me a bureaucrat please don't tell anyone for now the wiki is supposed to be a secret. -BobaFett2

gamespy
if you have gamespy or aoe3 gamer thing pls tell me the name and we can start a wiki clan and play against/woth eachother
 * Whoops, my template directs you here. I will respond on AoE Wiki. Ajraddatz Talk 21:25, December 27, 2009 (UTC)

Help with sig
Can you help me make is smaller? see- User talk:Flamethrower13
 * Not really, no. You should know how to make your sig all by yourself, and if you can't, then you need to use simpler code. Sorry, Ajraddatz Talk 19:36, December 31, 2009 (UTC)

spotlight images
Yes, it is possible to have more than one spotlight; however in general that's only done for wikis that the content team is highlighting and not for the requested spotlights. Occasionally it's also possible to swap out one spotlight image for another one (replace it basically) after a few days or so. -- Wendy (talk ) 04:29, January 4, 2010 (UTC)

Re: Re: Merge
No, I want wiki's one into the other one, so the inactive one can be gone, and the other one gone. Why? So more people go to this wiki and one less wiki to worry about.-- 19:25, January 9, 2010 (UTC)

Thanks!
Thanks for the crowd management over at Ibanez Guitar Wiki ;) --Bram Talk! 08:49, January 11, 2010 (UTC)

Just so you know
The reason I am removing the Nimbus Station content is because it is leaked. Nimbus Station hasn't been shown in any videos or previews and the details in that page are very, well, detailed, and plus, I'm a LU Alpha Tester and member of the LKIC, so I know somebody did not just make them up. Please don't spread leaked info - remember, if you are an Alpha Tester and leaked this info, then you might be banned from the test and LKIC, as another user recently was. So be careful!

Thanks for your help
Thank you for keeping vandalism off our wiki --Squilibob 09:38, February 11, 2010 (UTC)
 * You're welcome :) Ajraddatz Talk 14:42, February 11, 2010 (UTC)

The Splinter Cell Wiki is not even remotely active.
There is no "community." It is essentially just ChaosTheory07 and a few editors who maybe come on once every few weeks. Imrlybord7 01:47, March 25, 2010 (UTC)

hey
hey man why'd you block me on your Uncyclopedia and destroy my article?TyBoyd 23:14, April 16, 2010 (UTC)
 * I didn't do either; I'm not an admin on Uncyclopedia. Sorry. Ajraddatz Talk 23:16, April 16, 2010 (UTC)


 * Um... I mean the Lego Uncyclopedia. Are you sure your not an admin on that?TyBoyd 03:29, April 18, 2010 (UTC)
 * Oh, yes, I blocked you because some Uncyclopedia users were plotting to troll there, and your edits were far less than productive. I may unblock you at some point, but for the moment I will keep that up there. Thanks. Ajraddatz Talk 04:12, April 18, 2010 (UTC)


 * Your wiki looked like it really needed a help. I don't see how my article was so unproductive.  It had a few sections and even a picture.  Many articles have only a few sentences.  Honestly the wiki looks like a lost cause, trying to build an entire satire wiki on Lego Blocks, but I thought I could do my best to try and help.  What would you recomend I do next time I write a humour article?

Problem Users
Parsonsda is hardly the first "problem user" that I've encountered, and the unfortunate thing is that the discussion about them tends to divert nearly the entire wiki (at times) from getting much of anything else done when they show up. Some are gadflies that simply like to stir up trouble in their wake for the fun of it, and a few are simply very immature individuals who simply need to grow up.

Parsonsda seems to me as simply a very immature kid that doesn't know when to shut up. That is hopefully something that can be fixed with age and experience, which is why I still hold out hope for the kid.

Still, as I'm saying, this is hardly the first time I've encountered this situation, and I'm trying to think outside of the box for a minute and see what else we can do when these situations come up. Empowering admins and site overseers to have more options available is always useful, and I think it certainly would be a healthy discussion to try and come up with a method to deal with these guys that doesn't necessarily have to be so blunt as the user block tools tend to be.

For myself, if this were a just world and if it would make a difference, I'd simply tell Parsonsda to take a year or so off in their life and come back when they are ready to be serious with participating on the wiki. Unfortunately I don't think what he has done warrants a 1 year block either. --Robert Horning 16:44, May 1, 2010 (UTC)

Why did you remove Wicca Wiki from Adoption request page?
You seem like a normal editor like me, so you should know its not up to us to remove requests. Whats wrong with the request? You should have just posted why it shouldn't get the adoption and left it at that. Anyways I have reposted it. Please leave a comment there on why not instead. Devilmanozzy (Talk Page)  04:30, May 20, 2010 (UTC)
 * Also vandalism started happening only a few days ago at Wicca wiki and you may want to note that. The Wicca Wiki needs help at this time, not being looked away from. I think we have a lot in common here, but you may have walked into something you were unaware of. I brought in Sarah Manley as I told her all about the issues I'm seeing. You should address her too on this as its starting to get into a bigger problem. Devilmanozzy  (Talk Page)  04:39, May 20, 2010 (UTC)
 * That wasn't a request for adoption, that was a request to close the wiki. That isn't the right place to request that the wiki be closed. Ajraddatz Talk 13:06, May 20, 2010 (UTC)
 * True to a point. It was however a request of some sort, that and I had responded to it. I feel at that point a Helper is the only one that can address it. Erasing a topic means we lose content and information. You may not value the content, but it was a request to Adopt a wiki to close it or merge it. I stated I didn't agree with it, but its a helpers place to address it, and in open public so people following it will know the outcome. Erasing Comments and requests leads to confusion. Devilmanozzy  (Talk Page)  17:32, May 20, 2010 (UTC)
 * You aren't a helper, and there is a place specifically for reporting wikis. That request has no business being on the adoption page; and a closure of that wiki would be rejected. Ajraddatz Talk 18:00, May 20, 2010 (UTC)
 * I made a comment to it, so it had became a conversation. Your no helper either. Don't play god with my comments next time. Devilmanozzy  (Talk Page)  18:04, May 20, 2010 (UTC)
 * First of all, stop being a dick. Second, I'm not playing god, I was helping to keep the adoption requests moving by not completing requests, but rather correcting missing elements. Anyone can do that. Now that the Wicca Wiki actually has a request for adoption, it is fine. However, as stated above, that is not the place to request the closure of a wiki.
