Hey Mr. Boxman!

If you use Fire Fox 2 do you think you could look at this revision and tell me if Engel's character box is in the middle of the page, and not after a giant stretch of space? Last time I looked at my page, it was FF2, and it looked fine. I get FF3, and all of a sudden, the character box was pushed waaaaayyy down my page, for no reason. I made some changes to fix the way it looks here, but I'm just curious now.-- dǝǝɥs oʇ ɯɐds: sʎɐʍ1ɐ! 01:48, 31 December 2008 (UTC)

Try <br clear="both" />--Karek^maps?! 12:06, 31 December 2008 (UTC)

I'm using FF3, and it's the same. Changing the table width to 65% (instead of 95%) fixed it for me. It's because your character table is too wide for what remains of the page when you take into account the sidebar with the templates on it, I think -- boxy ^{talk • teh rulz} 14:56 31 December 2008 (BST)

I know, but in FF2, which I used up until 2 days ago, I never had to change it, and it always looked fine. That's why I was wondering if it was an FF 3 thing, and I didn't want to have to down grade, check, and then upgrade again and find all my bookmarks and neat tid bits again.-- dǝǝɥs oʇ ɯɐds: sʎɐʍ1ɐ! 15:01, 31 December 2008 (UTC)

Weird eh? Dunno, can't help -- boxy ^{talk • teh rulz} 15:03 31 December 2008 (BST)

Firefox 3 probably has stricter standards support then Firefox 2 so it is possible that it would cause problems on some pages.--The General ^{T Sys U! P! F!} 18:03, 1 January 2009 (UTC)

I figured as much when I first saw it, I just was wondering if anyone had FF 2 could tell me if that revision looked okay. I'm not looking so much for a fix (Karek), or an explanation as to why (Monsieur Box), but more just a quick check up should anyone use FF2 still. But thank you all anyway. I am grateful. :) -- dǝǝɥs oʇ ɯɐds: sʎɐʍ1ɐ! 19:27, 1 January 2009 (UTC)

Hilariously enough it works in IE7.--Karek^maps?! 19:30, 1 January 2009 (UTC)

It works in IE7, but not FF3? Damn you Mozilla!-- dǝǝɥs oʇ ɯɐds: sʎɐʍ1ɐ! 19:47, 1 January 2009 (UTC)

And actually Style="clear: right;" would probably fix the problem.--Karek^maps?! 19:35, 1 January 2009 (UTC)

Don't worry about it, no one uses Firefox 2 anymore. In fact, you were the last person to switch to Firefox 3. ;) --Zs L 19:42, 1 January 2009 (UTC)

I probably was, I waited to get 3 until the Red Shift theme was released for it. :D -- dǝǝɥs oʇ ɯɐds: sʎɐʍ1ɐ! 19:49, 1 January 2009 (UTC)

You know you can disable the theme/add-on filters right?--Karek^maps?! 21:47, 1 January 2009 (UTC)

Firefox 2 is teh awesome. Firefox 3 is teh suxxor. (i refused to move to ff3) --People's Commissar Hagnat ^{talk mod} 00:34, 5 January 2009 (UTC)

Great Fire ambiguity

Hey as one of the wikizens around here that has a background with ALiM projects that goes back before the purge, we'd greatly appreciate if you went here and testified. We are asking for witnesses who can confirm the fact that the page, Great Fire of 1912 was indeed created by and largely moderated by myself and User:J3D. The task of claiming our creation over the page is complicated by the fact that no history is available to back up our claim due to the history purge. Thanks for you time.--Nallan (Talk) 08:12, 11 October 2008 (BST)

Colloquialisms

It is neutral tone, the nav bar really recognises the people who have put effort into making the page and linking to other relevant projects that might interest readers. cbf repeating, see cyberbobs talk.--x o x o 03:27, 11 October 2008 (BST)

The nav bar is ugly and intrusive,
The nav bar is bloody ugly and intrusive, and doesn't fit the overall style of general community pages,
If you want to make a guide, and put it in the guide namespace, please try to make it look professional,
I'm getting real sick of the constant spam and cross-promoting being done by the 2 Cool crew to get page hits up on their "quality projects".

Just because your group helped make those pages, doesn't mean that you should be allowed to spam adverts to your group page, and other, often totally unrelated, pages you created -- boxy ^{talk • i} 05:58 11 October 2008 (BST)

It's a guide for colloquialisms, by it's very nature it is going to be somewhat unprofessional hence stuff like the picture and the text adds to the character of the page. I think the ALiMnav template is quite beautiful, it got a tad out of hand with the add for the ALiM party but since that is removed it's back to it's old beautiful self. We are thinking of redesigning it to make it more streamlined (wider and not so tall) but yeah, that won't be until november or so. --x o x o 06:08, 11 October 2008 (BST)

You think that a nav bar that is baby shit yellow, over half a page wide, and 11 lines high isn't out of hand at the moment? Please? Your nav bar screams "look at me, look at me!". It's a bloody advert -- boxy ^{talk • i} 06:21 11 October 2008 (BST)

We did have a community discussion about the implementation of the navbar, shame you are opposed to democratic process or you could have joined us...--x o x o 06:29, 11 October 2008 (BST)

hum... the 2 cool navbar is sooo awesome :D i think i am going to copy it and add it to all pages i helped create and improve... lemmesee... the Suburb page, the suburb template, Arbitration, Policy Discussion, the building danger reports, the main page... all these and many others will advertise me, so everybody knows how awesome i am :D --People's Commissar Hagnat ^talk 13:57, 13 October 2008 (BST)

lolz -- boxy ^{talk • teh rulz} 14:07 13 October 2008 (BST)

We already know hagnat, and they have to be pages you (or your group) singled handedly sculpted from nothingness fyi, or else it's not really 2C, ya dig? Feel free to borrow our awesome navbar for any purpose though.--x o x o 00:29, 14 October 2008 (BST)

Willfully ignoring his point, by pretending to take his sarcasm at face value, doesn't change the fact that what you are doing with these pages you create is extremely petty. Demanding to be acknowledged, in such an obnoxious way, as the creator is pathetic. Look at the MIC, Hagnat created that from scratch. The closest thing that I see to your garish navbar is a single category linking to Category:Style Up!.

MIC = Classy

ALiM = Obnoxious -- boxy ^{talk • teh rulz} 11:17 14 October 2008 (BST)

There is one key difference here you are willfully ignoring, ALiM etc pages are fictional lulz, MIC etc are informative pages and are not the place for links to other stuff you've created. Unless of course the other stuff you've created is somehow relevant, in which case go for it! What we do is more comparable to groups listing their allies in a section of their page.--x o x o 11:29, 14 October 2008 (BST)

What? Caiger Mall isn't just as fictional as the great fire? :P

If you want to claim your pages as fictional, non-informative pages, then perhaps you should keep them totally separate from the "factual" side of the wiki, and not implant links to them into suburb, locations and other informative pages?

And no, I don't expect you to do that, I just expect you to concede that there is no clear "fictional" "factual" divide, and that you are placing many of those pages into the community section of the wiki, regardless of the clearly humourous intent in a lot of them.

The colloquialisms page (the topic under discussion, lolz) is clearly meant to be mostly an informative page, explaining abbreviations, btw. Extremely petty to remove it from the main namespace, and place it in your own private area simply to control it's styling so that you can keep your advertising banner on it.

Perhaps I'll edit the redirect so that it has all the content, without obnoxious banner and group ownership problems? Good idea, wat? -- boxy ^{talk • teh rulz} 11:42 14 October 2008 (BST)

and waste kevan's precious server space?? I think not...--x o x o 11:55, 14 October 2008 (BST)

if pages created by ALiM are fictional and owned by 2 Cool, then this template shouldn't have been added to all locations, as its merely advertising your group. There was a similar issue months ago with Dunell Hills Police Dept. overcategorization of buildings, and it was shot dead by The Dead (lol) and with the support of many sysops (myself included). ALiM should either turn into public domain, with a nice and unobtrusive template on its pages, or have all advertise of the group removed from building, suburb and other public domain pages. --People's Commissar Hagnat ^talk 14:14, 14 October 2008 (BST)

I seem to have broken talk:suggestions formatting. I have no idea how and am scared to try fix it in case i make things worse! If you are first on line could you take a look? Thanks...--Honestmistake 14:44, 25 September 2008 (BST)

I've fixed it for now, by moving a huge chunk of the page to the overflow page. That page requires regular cleaning out of old, dead, suggestions discussion to avoid the problem -- boxy ^{talk • i} 15:02 25 September 2008 (BST)

Looks like it only affects a couple of edits you made around the same time. Perhaps you just picked the wrong time, while an upgrade was happening (perhaps the recent deletion of the older diff comparisons)? If it doesn't happen again, and your page is fixed now, I wouldn't worry about it -- boxy ^{talk • i} 13:46 11 September 2008 (BST)

Misunderstood!

Hey Boxy, I appologize about getting all pissy at you. I thought you may have deleted my stuff but you only moved it to our group page and made it better for us. Please accept my appology. I jumped to conclusions way too quickly.

Thanks for the help.

Also,

Im confused about how to get the Group link to work on our page. Is there an easier way to do it? Im still learning and Im trying to teach my brother and my cousin .-. SpacemanSpiffReturns 06:53, August 19, 2008

Stuff I'm Thinking About

I'm seriously contemplating moving barricade plans to group subpages, as it's where they should have been in the first place and will stop all this pointless bickering.--Karek^maps?! 05:52, 24 July 2008 (BST)

Trouble with that solution is that it's usualy a collaborative effort between survivor groups/individuals, rather than each group in an area "owning" their own plan -- boxy ^{talk • i} 10:02 24 July 2008 (BST)

UBP subpages for the ones that are UBP group "neutral".--Karek^maps?! 10:20, 24 July 2008 (BST)

I know we could fit them somewhere, I just don't feel that it is a good thing. They are usually a community resource, and even though they are survivor POV, they should remain as a community page if possible. I don't remember much drama coming from them before the Dunell Hills situation. The occasional dispute about whether a building should be an entry point, or EHB... but meh, that's what arbies is for -- boxy ^{talk • i} 10:28 24 July 2008 (BST)

This whole thing has gone so far out of proportion. I think the Santlerville model is the best. Survivor orientated cade plan on the page with the larger plan linked to and a zombie plan linked to from the bottom of the page, everyone's happy.--x o x o 10:31, 24 July 2008 (BST)

Funny J3d, as a zombie minded player I've always found those plans to be more of an insult than most things on the wiki. --Karek^maps?!

you talking about the actual cade plans or the zombie 'plans'? I find the zombie ones pretty shitty but if people want them there i figure they should be allowed to, despite the fact that serve no actual purpose...--x o x o 10:37, 24 July 2008 (BST)

The zombie ones. It's just an excuse to avoid addressing the actual issue.--Karek^maps?! 10:39, 24 July 2008 (BST)

I could see this becoming Wan's a/a case v2.0...the wiki is here to provide information to players, barricade plans (majority enforced ones) do that...while i can understand some people not liking them on the suburb page that should at the very least have a full sized heading explaining the purpose of the cade plan, the major local groups who endorse it and to what scale it is followed with a sizeable link to the actual cade plan because as much as you might not like them they are an important resource for survivor players.--x o x o 10:42, 24 July 2008 (BST)

That's one of the great ironies about this, they aren't, the other one, of course, is that the same people that use them now will still use them if they're moved off of the suburb pages.--Karek^maps?! 11:07, 24 July 2008 (BST)

As a self confessed zombie player you aren't really the right person to judge whether or not cade plans are an important survivor resource. While i agree they are largely bullshit i use them when i'm out of town and need to find an ep, you'd be suprised how often the ep the cade plan points to is the one that is in use, regardless of whether or not i feel it is the most logical choice for an entry point to a resource building. Anyway as to your second point - i agree, so move them to a subpage of the suburb but keep them well linked so people can find them! If a suburb is having a tantrum then you can look into splitting them into 'group cade plans' or whatever but 99% suburbs don't need that.--x o x o 13:01, 24 July 2008 (BST)

I'm a zombie player, not an idiot. That being said I have frequently participated in the survivor game for quite some time now, it's both how I started playing and how I ended playing, I classify myself as a zombie player not because I'm biased to their side but because I refuse to associate myself with the "survivor" mindset and I prefer the "zombie" metagame. And to refrain from using a segway I've already used; I've had this discussion before and wasn't the only one who came to the conclusion, 99% of them aren't followed and never have been(I only know of one suburb that I could ever say consistently did).--Karek^maps?!

It's not "an occasional dispute" this has been going on for over 2 years now and it's because of the absurdly POV nature of them that contributes to the general POV nature of the suburb pages. They're group resources_{(I doubt you'd dispute that)} it's idiotic for us to leave them on community pages, especially when they never should have been there in the first place. It's a major nuisance and one we should have solved long ago.--Karek^maps?! 10:33, 24 July 2008 (BST)

I've no problem with them coming off the suburb pages. I'll help with that. But I don't think group sub-pages is the place for them. Suburbname Barricade Plan (as seen on Category:Barricade Plans) would be the place I'd put them -- boxy ^{talk • i} 10:37 24 July 2008 (BST)

Thanks for the comments boxy. In answer to your questions.

Yes. It will be time consuming, about 6 weeks worth in fact. But i reckon I can probably remove 30% of all groups. After which it will be less stressful, they've just never been properly done before.
In future I will make it burb specific, but for now its just the truly inactive groups im purging. Besides who wants to get dragged into a "Were active in this suburb" debate? A hilly suburb on our western border alone would probably implode if i asked that question. I will make the cahnge but not yet.
As for the timestamp idea, its possible, Maybe a {{Welcomegroup}} template explaining how things work? But thats for the future, ive only just finished the location pages for vinetown, and i fear my brain will give up...--Ross less ne s s^{Want a Location Image?} 11:17, 13 July 2008 (BST)

Wiki

Hey Boxy, I noticed that at about 1 AM GMT-6, all the wiki's text got much larger. I've check on other sites and deleted all my cookies, etc., so I know it's not my browser. Any info? - Vigeous _RHA 08:36, 11 July 2008 (BST)

Has it cleared itself up? Often closing the browser/puter and restarting fixes these little glitches. Only thing that I can think of is that you may have upped the font size on the page. I use firefox, and occasionally bump the mouse scroll wheel while holding in ctrl. This can change the font size up or down on individual sites while not affecting other web pages in different tabs -- boxy ^{talk • i} 11:22 12 July 2008 (BST)

So that we can track when groups are added to the list, and perhaps, in the future, set up a system where groups can be removed regularly if not updated... a fringe benefit may be that edit conflicts on the group lists doesn't mean that the whole page needs locking -- boxy ^{talk • i} 13:54 17 June 2008 (BST)

Images

After 17 days of slaving away Rosslessness and I have brought the amount of uncategorized images down to 1390. There are a few images in there that are [deleted] but won't go away (same with the uncategorized pages). I plan on going through the main categories and cross referencing any images that can go in more than one, but we figured getting all of them in at least one was the main goal.

There are also some images that change category with usage. I think going back through them will also help cut down on the dups that are just different sizes because the user may not know how to alter the size in the code or forget what they named it when they uploaded it. And I agree - those survivors love their ribbons! --– Nubis ^NWO 16:47, 5 June 2008 (BST)

Ah yeah, i did. I had 2 user talks open both called Penny _____, there was that one and another. Anyway it did have a sig of yours on it. Templated sigs do make edit pages a lot cleaner though...also have you seen the awesome new ALiM navbar?? It totally rox!--x o x o 07:54, 20 May 2008 (BST)

Jamie's Headerpage templates

Thank you Boxy for moving them to the right place, I did not know what name to put the under. By the way; what did you think of them, not very good are they.--Jamie Cantwel3 ^TalkAll glory to the Hypnotoad! 04:25, 18 May 2008 (BST)

I've seen worse ;) -- boxy ^{talk • i} 04:34 18 May 2008 (BST)

Sorry I stuffed up this one on you. But you could have fixed it by simply putting a backslash (/) in the last noinclude tag. The noinclude tags (<noinclude>xxxx</noinclude>) mean that whatever you put between the tags shows up on the page, but when the template is used on another page (like your user page) that text doesn't get included (hence noinclude) -- boxy ^{talk • i} 04:41 18 May 2008 (BST)

Ok I will remember that next time thanks.--Jamie Cantwel3 ^TalkAll glory to the Hypnotoad! 23:13, 18 May 2008 (BST)

hey boxy

hey boxy i know you are way busy modign the wiki and you dont have time for looking for stuff but sence u have seen just about every wiki page evermade here i was wondering if you have seen a wiki page with the little picture saying "this user has visited ackland mall and the templates like that i was going to add some to my page well if you can drop a comment on my talk page thanks tomer mall tour 07/X:00

Thanks...sorta.

Thanks for fixing my grammar/spelling errors on the Cockburn page. However i don't think its really your place to remove the link to 73, if he wanted to he could have. I thought you would be happy that real history was being incorporated into the location's history, apparently not.--x o x o 07:28, 7 March 2008 (UTC)

Quick Question

Just a couple questions regarding Wiki ethics; Would it be considered improper to edit the spelling on someones user page even if the user is not an obvious newb? And what about changing the wording to produce correct grammar or to provide clarity? -AbSent 16:45, 29 February 2008 (UTC)

I wouldn't, unless I was pretty sure they wouldn't mind. Ask them on their talk page first is the best bet -- boxy ^{talk • i} 21:53 29 February 2008 (BST)

Question

Is it okay to delete irrelevant discussion on discussion pages? Example: there's stuff on the Building Types discussion page that's just no longer relevant. Okay to delete it, you think? --Funt Solo ^QT 18:47, 15 February 2008 (UTC)

Sure, if it's really irrelevant, I guess. I'd make a section at the bottom of the page, and label it for deletion, and give it a week or two there. After that, if no-one has seen fit to save it to an archive, delete it -- boxy ^{talk • i} 10:13 16 February 2008 (BST)

Hey.

That is not my character. Please ask before creating pages that are not necessary. Thank you. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Nny7229 (talk • contribs) 21:07, February 5, 2008.

Well it was a character page in the wrong namespace, you created it, so it got moved to your page. Sorry if it wasn't yours, but we get a heap of pages in the wrong place like that, and waiting for a reply from every one of their authors would mean that many of them would never get put right -- boxy ^{talk • i} 22:00 5 February 2008 (BST)

Thank you

Thank you Boxy, for the help with my chef page.--Jamie Cantwell3 06:02, 5 February 2008 (UTC)

Interference Links

Please stop adding them, read the page's talk page, a page with that purpose already exists and is where all current data on the matter is and has been going since the day of the update. It's also in the footnote at the bottom of the page. The Interference page is pretty much nothing but unneeded content spam.--Karek^maps?! 07:40, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

I think a page is needed on this development -- boxy ^{talk • i} 07:46 29 January 2008 (BST)

That isn't it. If you want a page that is about the flavor and what is meant by interference fix that one up, but don't use it as a link to how interference effects building barricades as that is misleading. As such it doesn't belong on the barricades page until it has content itself, or at the very least relevance to the barricades page, such as is the case with the stub door.--Karek^maps?! 07:54, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

Well people arn't going to be able to provide the information in one place unless there's a link to it so they can find it, and know that their information is needed. (I can't update it, because I'm not playing a survivor in a siege, but I'd love to know what the effect is (both flavour and percentages wise). Would you be happy to have the link in the footnote area? -- boxy ^{talk • i} 07:58 29 January 2008 (BST)

A link in the footnote area is more than fine. You should be able to fit it in nicely as part of Note 3.--Karek^maps?! 08:01, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for taking up this cause Boxy. I was in exactly that situation (wanting to help coalesce knowledge on the subject without having any term or handle for the idea). That's the intent of the Interference page, and I'm astounded Karek doesn't see that. CloseCall 01:23, 2 February 2008 (UTC)

I didn't see it because of how you were choosing to link to it, it was misleading.--Karek^maps?! 05:33, 2 February 2008 (UTC)

Club Head

So you want me to get rid of the Fenis thing? Is that the only problem you have with the edit? Because i find mods to be temperamental beings and don't want to resubmit only to be banned for not clearing up the unspoken issue.--Jed 12:00, 17 January 2008 (UTC) My bad...--Jed 12:01, 17 January 2008 (UTC)

The rest of your "contribution" to the page is pathetically unfunny, but I really couldn't give a shite. If others make a case against it's inclusion I may though. Why don't you go do something productive with your time -- boxy ^{talk • i} 12:10 17 January 2008 (BST)

Hey, hey, hey...each to his own. Until then I'll stick with what i wrote minus Fenis.--Jed 12:13, 17 January 2008 (UTC)

Oh and you're more then welcome to make suggestions re:doing something productive with my time.--Jed 12:25, 17 January 2008 (UTC)

Random question

Xela798, new user. Anyway, he's updated the status of Southall Mansion without signing, and generally editted the page to be his own special home.(Regardless of its internal revive point status.) But its not vandalism is it. Because its a public page? Isnt it?--Ross less ne s s^{Want a Location Image?} 22:19, 10 January 2008 (UTC)

Karek has cleaned it up, and I fixed up his sig on the status report. Him saying that zombies arn't allowed, and barricades should be up isn't much different to what was there before, stating that they should be down, and zombies are welcome. It's all one groups view on how things should be run (ie POV material) -- boxy ^{talk • i} 23:42 10 January 2008 (BST)

Thank you sir!--Ross less ne s s^{Want a Location Image?} 16:55, 11 January 2008 (UTC)

Questions

So, with the suggestions. It says: Individual suggestion pages that were spamminated or removed from voting. Does that mean any page that has closed? Or just withdrawn and spamminated? Matts wording was: for spamminated or otherwise closed from voting suggestions. So I suppose that qualifies for a schedueled protection, right? (And do I need to put the Template:Protect?) Lastly, for some reason, I'm getting the unprotect button instead of the protect button on almost every UDWiki namespace pages, like A/PM.-- AHLG T G THE END IS NIGH! 16:57, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

Anything removed, at least that's according to this slightly older scheduled protections request which, while it's from the old system, should be able to justify protecting closed suggestions votes.--Karek^maps?! 20:46, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

Yep, looks like they're all covered. You should be free to protect any suggestion that has been removed from voting... and those in peer reviewed, rejected, ect. have been removed from voting. Those admin pages being protected is a hangover from the old days, when everybody had the ability to move pages around. If you click on unprotect, you'll probably see that they are protected from moving, even though it makes no difference now that the default is that only sysops can move pages -- boxy ^{talk • i} 22:50 6 January 2008 (BST)

Oh, mmkay. -- AHLG T G THE END IS NIGH! 23:39, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

Hmm. Just noticed that there's a "block unregistered users" except you can only edit if you're logged in. A shame really. There is semi protection on Wikipedia, stops the recently registered. Anywho, default = sysops only?-- AHLG T G THE END IS NIGH! 00:03, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

I just read your comment on AHLG's promotions bid, I actually do have every suggestion that I have voted on on my watchlist, so unless it was spam removed extremely fast or dupe removed extremely fast it's on there.--Karek^maps?! 23:44, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

Nah, that's ok I understand. Same thing happens to me, I suppose it is better the other way. --_Ducis ^Dux_Sloth^Talk 12:00, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

Oh I doubt that he refused everyone, but he does have to be a bit careful cause his last ruling was a soft Wikigate(I was looking at a specific ruling in that from Kevan's talk page and it's almost the exact ruling used with some small differences).--Karek^maps?! 20:38, 5 January 2008 (UTC)

Tables

With this table I want to have grey verticle lines/borders separating the three columns. Is there a way to do this? --_Ducis ^Dux_Sloth^Talk 01:01, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

Tables arn't really my thing... I do 'em, but it's a battle -- boxy ^{talk • i} 01:05 3 January 2008 (BST)

It's actually significantly harder because of how you chose to do the tables. Try HTML or ordering them by columns, not rows. Then I'd bet <div style="border-right:2px solid #000;"> would probably work if it surrounded the column. But the style code ''"border-right:2px solid #000;"'' Should do the trick giving you a 2 pixel solid black border on the right border of the column, If you do use HTML just add style="border-right:2px solid #000;" to the <TD> tag._{(you can see an example of how to do it on my ProjDev page, the map with the green background uses a similar code on a smaller scale.)}--Karek^maps?! 01:41, 3 January 2008 (UTC)
