Listings

I think the "Listings" section in each game's article are really big and should be moved into their own separate article. What do you think? --Jase 14:16, 29 March 2007 (CDT)

Yeah, they are too long and it's tiresome to have to scroll down through them all. I'd been wondering for a while if there was a better format we could use; not sure if placing them all on separate pages might fragment it too much, but it does open the possibility of expanding the lists with images, so it might work out quite well. What were you thinking, something like "List of Items in The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess" for example? Adamcox82 15:38, 29 March 2007 (CDT)
Pretty much. I believe we also have a Characters in TWW page, too. It would kind of be to that effect, I take. Personally, I think the lists create clutter and would need to be CONSTANTLY updated, but if some people find them useful they should be put somewhere - just not in the articles themselves. A link to the new list article would be put in the game article, though. --Jase 15:53, 29 March 2007 (CDT)
OK, I finished moving all of the Listings from the Wind Waker page to separate articles (except Dungeons, seemed a bit too short to bother); you were right Jase, it looks much better. At some point I'll go through the other games and do at least the Items and Enemies sections (which are usually the longest). --Adamcox82 14:28, 20 May 2007 (PDT)
Cool. I really like what you did with the page; it looks great. Keep up the good work! The wiki appreciates it. ;)... By the way, it's so weird to see somebody call me "Jase." You are probably the third person to actually call me that. I know I set it as Jase in my signature, but usually people call me Jason or GC. Not that Jase is bad, it's just neat to see it catching on to some degree. :P --Jase 16:01, 20 May 2007 (PDT)

BLOCKED

Guys, back me up here. Am I being unreasonable? http://kingdomhearts.wikia.com/wiki/User_talk:Adamcox82 --Adamcox82 01:20, 21 June 2007 (PDT)

Thanks Jason, it makes me feel a lot better to have someone speak in my defence :) I'm not sure what Scottch's response (if any) will be, but I would really like to get him to unblock me. I don't actually want to contribute to that wiki now - his attitude has soured the whole place for me, and it seems far too much like a dictatorship. But I want him to acknowledge that he judged me unfairly. --Adamcox82 15:39, 21 June 2007 (PDT)
Anytime. Just shows the difference between that place and this, I guess ;)... plus, I know you're a great contributor, and that guy just has to be wrong, and I'd hate to see him get away with it. --Jase 17:36, 21 June 2007 (PDT)

Update

Finally got myself un-banned from Kingdom Hearts wiki, and it only took involving Angela, the co-founder of wikia! Now that leaves all my time free for editing here, as I won't be going back to that stupid wiki in a hurry! --Adamcox82 04:51, 1 July 2007 (PDT)

Image Location

Where did you find Three-Eye Reef? I am attempting to find the other islands from this map to put in their respectful pages. I know it is from a map in a walkthrough guide, but I cannot find it online. Do you have a link? Could you upload the whole map? 42bens 10:32, 25 June 2007 (PDT)


Don't worry, I have a similar image for all of the islands, just haven't got around to uploading them yet! Can't remember where I downloaded them from, but they seem to have been scanned from a walkthrough map. I promise I'll do the rest this week :) --Adamcox82 12:31, 25 June 2007 (PDT)
I could do it for you if you send me the map 42bens@gmail.com. 42bens 13:33, 25 June 2007 (PDT)
Nevermind I got it. I'll finish it up. 42bens 19:41, 28 June 2007 (PDT)
It's okay. It saved me some work and they do look a bit better. I may do the work on the Four Swords Adventure levels though. And thank you for your support. Some of those images are really hard to find, especially the Bean Seller one. 42bens 18:09, 29 June 2007 (PDT)

While I'm Gone

Since you're awesome and everything, since I'ma be gone for three weeks, you want some tasty temp powerz so that you can add the featured article to the front page when the last vote rolls around? You can also do whatever the heck else you want while I'm gone, too, just short of blowing the place up. --Jase 11:14, 6 July 2007 (PDT)

I would be honoured to accept :) In fact, I was about to suggest that someone(s) be appointed to look after the place (not necessarily me :)) while you're gone, since last time you were away it degenerated into a complete vandalism-fest! --Adamcox82 11:21, 6 July 2007 (PDT)
You now has temp powers. Enjoy. Don't spend every waking moment on this place, though - it's not good for you. ;) --Jase 17:52, 6 July 2007 (PDT)

hullo?

Umm, I just tried to delete some crappy links, and I found my IP address was blocked. Why is that? what did I do? -user:kasei

I'm sorry, I have no clue :/ What IP address do you have please, so I can unblock you?? --Adamcox82 23:51, 23 August 2007 (PDT)

72.95.54.188 Is the one I see when I log in. kasei

Hi, I've unblocked you now - really sorry! I understand what happened now, you'd reverted one of the many spam edits, but because I use the enhanced recent changes view, your address was right next to the spammer, and for some reason I blocked you both! Again, really sorry - I'll click more carefully in future... --Adamcox82 23:41, 24 August 2007 (PDT)

help!

Okay, I think your a moderator, right? First off, nice to meet you, second, I would like some help. I just cleaned up two articles that were being spammed up with links to other sites. I found the guys IP address: 91.151.224.17

maybe you could talk to him . . .

Hi, and welcome to ZW.org! Unfortunately, we get this kind of vandalism fairly regularly, from a variety of different IP addresses. I've blocked that address permanently from making edits, and thanks for reverting the damage. Don't worry too much; I usually do a sweep of all new edits pretty much daily to check for any vandalism, so either myself or Jason should spot these problems. Thanks again, and enjoy editing here :) --Adamcox82 23:03, 17 August 2007 (PDT)

hi!

hi! can I copy the picture RedChuTP.jpg for a german site called stupidedia.org? its a satire-website like the uncyclopedia. i need your picture, bc i haven't found a picture of a red chu in twighlight princess on the internet. it would be really great if i had your permission for the license!

Sure you can use it, it's just a screenshot I took from a video on YouTube so I can't really claim any rights over it :) --Adamcox82 11:24, 21 August 2007 (PDT)

Discussion of category deletions - non-existent

Hi,

I've just found this site today and went and tried to put some more structure into it. One of the things I did was creating per-game categories to collect all articles concerning the various games beneath. (No, this cannot be seen from their respective articles.) I wanted to bring it up for discussion first and spent about an hour and a half browsing about the site, looking through docs, etc. to see how the community around this site handled structural changes (or style guidelines or, well, anything), but since there seemed (and seems) to be no place for such discussions, I decided to go ahead with the addition of the categories, somewhat expecting to be challenged on their usefulness, but at least I believed that they would be marked for deletion before being deleted, thus giving some room for discussion of the justice of having it. But there you go. Feel free to DeleteWhenCooked.

-Freso 14:44, 6 September 2007 (EDT)

I'm sorry if the deletion seemed somewhat abrupt. What you have to bear in mind is that the category structure here is fairly well established, having developed over the course of more than 2 years. While I can understand your thinking behind "per-game" categories, this would actually constitute quite a dramatic shift in the structure of the wiki. The problem with such broad categories is that, unless they contain everything from that game, they are ineffecive. And one mustn't underestimate the task of adding a new category to hundreds of pages without missing any... (beware of this as you build the Places categories!) The preferred direction here has been to make all per-game related articles accesible either directly from each game article, or else via specific sub-pages within the Listings section. I hope you won't take it personally, and I think your contributions so far have been very valuable. --Adam 15:59, 6 September 2007 (EDT)
Well, I see what you mean with that being a tough task - if you want every single directly applicable category listed on every article. But you don't need to - you have category inheritance for that! So, for instance, Category:The Great Sea belongs to Category:Places in TWW which in turns belongs to Category:Places. This means that Category:The Great Sea is under Category:Places as well, and thus any article belonging to Category:The Great Sea also implicitly belongs to both Category:Places in TWW and thus, again, Category:Places. Having Category:Places in TWW listed under Category:TLoZ: TWW would then mean that everything under Category:Places in TWW (including, for example, articles in Category:The Great Sea) would also implicitly belong to Category:TLoZ: TWW. Not only would this give a very clean and very flexible category structure[1], it would also mean less cruft in the category sections of the articles. But these are just my two rupees.
Also, thank you for your comment on my contributions in general. :) -Freso 17:28, 6 September 2007 (EDT)
  1. E.g., MediaWiki's Category:Extensions is an excellent example of this.
