==External Image Links==

Thanks for your help: 

''"To link to an image you just use this format [[:Image:Name of Image]]. - Vantar 06:04, 26 August 2007 (BST)"''

Thing is, that doesn't seem to work. It works fine for internal links, but not for external ones. I always ends up looking exactly like what you see up there: a link, but the image doesn't load. Perhaps I'm doing something wrong, but I just can't seem to find any help that tells me how to do correctly. I'll continue digging and maybe I can "reverse engineer" some code somewhere... Cheers... --[[User:WanYao|WanYao]] 21:19, 26 August 2007 (BST)
: Aaaaaaah... Gotchya... I just didn't want to waste server space on it, so I figured I'd host it in my PhotoBucket. Thanks. --[[User:WanYao|WanYao]] 23:31, 26 August 2007 (BST)

==Moving Pages==

Don't know if I should respond here or not.  I wrote The Pescodside Incident with an alt of mine, I thought I was signed in as my alt but I guess not.  Sorry about that.

Thanks for pointing me to the UD Leaderboard, its what ive been trying to find. oh well ill kind of keep going with this and try to build on it. [[User:Me101|Me101]] 12:15, 16 April 2007 (BST)

==Alphabetizing==

When you add or modify building pages that begins with "The" or "Club", it'd be helpful if you set up the categories so they come up properly on the category pages like [http://wiki.urbandead.com/index.php/Category:Museums Museum Category Page] and the suburbs pages.  [[The Hibbert Museum]] is an example.  Thanks for fleshing out the wiki!  --[[User:Tekka Maki|Tekka Maki]] 16:26, 2 May 2007 (BST)

: I saw your change to [[The Ive Museum]] and the category info was still not quite right.  If you put the "The" at the beginning, it will show up under "T" instead of "I".  You can look at my change to see what I mean.  --[[User:Tekka Maki|Tekka Maki]] 18:45, 3 May 2007 (BST)
:: Yeah sorry about that, I had been dropping the sort key in categorizes such as Museums and Buildings  for awhile, mostly because all the pages in those categories start with "The" so they will all be in alphabetical order anyway just all in the T section of the Category. As for the Ive museum, simple copy paste error I overlooked thanks for catching it, just out of curiosity why are you adding ",the" at the end of the category labels with the way that the buildings are all named you don't really need it.  - [[User:Vantar|Vantar]] 20:36, 3 May 2007 (BST)

::: I don't think it matters for the building pages but on the suburb pages, there could be a The Something Building and Club Something, and then it would be useful.  It's not a big thing either way but it doesn't hurt to put in the extra characters. --[[User:Tekka Maki|Tekka Maki]] 19:45, 4 May 2007 (BST)

==[[Zombies Unlimited]]==
Thanks for categorizing the locations I did in relation to that group.  Is there any reason I couldn;t also add other categories relating to the locations use?  --[[User:Swiers|Seb_Wiers]] <small>[[Vita ex Mors|VeM]]</small> 20:44, 3 May 2007 (BST)
:No problem, add as many categorizes as you want along they apply to that location.

==Uhh..Why?==

Why are you creating [[The_Pope_Museum|pages]], adding the templates, and leaving them? Aren't you supposed to ''finish'' them?--{{User:Axe27/Sig}} 20:38, 6 May 2007 (BST)

:Right now I'm going thought the uncreated pages on [[List of Museums]], I'm adding the location block and category information, a number of the people who collect the museum data have a tendency of leaving that stuff out when they are putting in the information about the museum type and until something major happens at these locations there is not much more to add about them - [[User:Vantar|Vantar]] 20:49, 6 May 2007 (BST)
::Alright,Thanks. --{{User:Axe27/Sig}} 20:56, 6 May 2007 (BST)

==Fethed Computer==
It's probably your power supply or your motherboard.  Power supplies are cheap but tricky to put it, sorta, while you have to be very careful about replacing your motherboard.  You should get the exact same model, hard with a 7 year old computer, or make sure all your stuff, especially your processor, will work with a new model you find.  Also, replacing one is time-consuming and complicated.  Of course, I only know this because of my power problems.  Otherwise I wouldn't give a feth and thus know nothing.  Stupid computers.--{{User:Lachryma/sig}} 07:00, 13 May 2007 (BST)
:Going only on the fact that it was been over 3 hours since my computer's last hissy fit I think I've fixed it, turns out it was a corrupt copy of Rainbow Six that was causing the shutdowns. If it happens again I'll look into power supplies. Thanks for your help, and grammartization of the safehouse supporter template. - [[User:Vantar|Vantar]] 08:45, 13 May 2007 (BST)

It's not pretty, but I hope it helps. If you notice a "***FILL IN***" let me know at what location that it occured at so I can fix it up. There are *alot* of variation on street titles (Grove, Plaza ect) and so I don't know if I got them all. Of course you may need to fill in the data yourself around special buildings, but for the most part it should make your life easier.

::Ah, thats easily fixable, that issue mainly came about because of my lack of knowledge about how the location blocks were done.

== Deleting Pages on the Wiki ==

Hi, I thought I'd come here to continue [[UDWiki:Administration/Deletions | the discussion on my page]] without clogging up the deletions page, and I didn't really know where else might be a good place to discuss this.  I really just have two questions:  first, how did my page end up on the "Special:Uncategorizedpages" page?  Is that some kind of spider or bot that goes around and collects pages with only 1 link to them or something?  Just wondering, since I obviously never linked it there.  And second: why does this really matter?  I mean, why is it important that a page be properly filed and categorized and not just "shoved into a filling cabinet," as you say?  To me a wiki is like the net itself:  tons and tons of uncategorized random stuff that just needs a good search engine to get around in.  I mean, it seems like it would take dozens of people hours a day to monitor and remove all the garbage that gets spewed into a wiki, and it'd be a pretty thankless, never-ending job.  Why not just ignore it and make your wiki smart enough to handle it?  Like my page, for instance.  What could it possibly be hurting, just sitting out there by itself?  I mean, sure the ''name'' of the page would be taken if anyone else wanted to use it, but how many other people are honestly going to want to grab that namespace?  What else does it possibly damage?  Is this just organization for the sake of being organized?  Don't get me wrong; I'm not trying to defend a position - just honestly asking a question here.  And as for the page in question, I'll still be happy to move it - just let me know when and I'll go ahead and do it (especially since now I know better how to do things like that than when I originally made the page). Or if I need to leave it and let someone else move it, I can do that, too.  Just let me know. --[[User:Evilbob|evilbob]] 19:34, 6 November 2007 (UTC)
:The [[Special:Specialpages|Specialpages]] are lists that the wiki automatically compiles. [[Special:Uncategorizedpages]] is made up of all the pages without a [[Help:Categories|category]]. In order to be useful to users the wiki can not just be random uncategorized stuff for two reason. First the search function sucks and second the wiki is meant to serve as a guidebook to the game so if you know what type of information you are looking for you know where to look with out needing the search function. 
:As for having the wiki categorize itself, it can't be done be done to the same level of accuracy as a human. On the average day 5-7 new page are created without categorizes and I categorizes 10+ pages and it is as you said a pretty thankless, never-ending job (thats why I only do 10 a day, 7 months ago I was doing a 100 a day). Left alone without a category you page would not cause the wiki to explode or do any other damage but the problem is it won't be left alone, it will be joined by lots of other uncategorized pages and after awhile those pages cause problems (such as masking spam pages, page duplication, and the odd name space disputes). This isn't really "organization for the sake of being organized" but more of "organization because it works slightly better than disorganization". 
:The page will either be moved or deleted in around 12 days, judging by the current votes it has I would say it will be moved and not deleted. There is a special way of moving pages that leave the page history intact that can only be done by Sysops, so you can just leave it alone and it will be moved for you - [[User:Vantar|Vantar]] 04:41, 7 November 2007 (UTC)

Anything that happened either before the outbreak or involves events that clearly never happened get placed into Category:Fiction.

::::::::::If they do any more then yes thats almost unquestionably bad faith but since they have have been primarily making fun of the character you are going to have a hard time proofing that harassment of the user was indented, making fun a of a group or a character is allowed (think about all the anti-Big Bash stuff there has been) to prove harassment you need to be able to establish  that they were continuing mocking him after they knew he was taking their tauts personally. Also since they are not responsible for tracking Marty every comment his complaints on boxy's and kevan's talk page doesn't count as letting them know he was offended until they commented on it and mocking his legal threats isn't harassment since he may not be in a position to make good on them, so you would need new material to emerge to get the harassment call. (of course Marty may have asked them to lay off earlier already, I haven't looked that far back yet,if he has then harassment would be relatively easy to prove) - [[User:Vantar|Vantar]] 02:49, 16 April 2008 (BST)

[[UDWiki:Administration/Misconduct/Archive/Hagnat/2008#2008.2C_January_31|When the issue resurfaced]] I tried to resolve the issue but Grim took my ruling as an attack on him instead of the request for compromise I meant it to be. In later misconduct cases things not much would change and around the same time there was an influx of promotion bids so, to me at least, it looked like certain users were trying to establish a controlling majority over misconduct rulings. That mixed with rather baseless accusations of being part of an "old boys club"  made me lose all desire to remain a bureaucrat.- [[User:Vantar|Vantar]] 08:46, 7 June 2008 (BST)
::Thanks for the (well-considered) answer. There certainly is a lot of pointless conflict around this wiki. It's alright when it's just polite intellectual dissension (in fact that sort of conflict is probably healthy) but when it gets into people speaking to each other to antagonise them, that's horrible. Sometimes I think it would be nice if each time there was a disagreement, like exact wording vs spirit of rules, the wiki sub-divided into two and people went to whichever group they wanted. It'd be like that saying that people get the government they deserve, and if someone had ridiculous views they couldn't impose them on others. By the way, I'm a bit late but good work on the image categorisation project. --[[User:Toejam|Toejam]] 02:06, 12 June 2008 (BST)
:::Thanks but the my contributions to image categorization were minimal at best. [[User:Boxy|Boxy]] championed the idea and [[User:Nubis|Nubis]] deserves a lot of the credit, he has categorized well beyond what I have done.- [[User:Vantar|Vantar]] 02:19, 12 June 2008 (BST)
::::Thank you. [[User:Rosslessness|Rosslessness]] and I worked very hard on that. I hope in the future that a sysop team eventually gets created that is more wiki oriented than policy directed. It's always a shame to see people that actually used to enjoy doing work and contributing leave. --{{User:Nubis/sig}} 03:51, 12 June 2008 (BST)

== Template on user page ==

Hey, could you replace the wiki coma template on my user page to the one that Hagnat just made? {{tl|Gone}}

My page is protected, and I'd rather keep it that way. This should be the only change I make. --{{User:Dux Ducis/sig}} 14:07, 13 June 2008 (BST)

:Sure no problem , sorry this took me so long to get to this something seems to have gone afoul with in my notification system - [[User:Vantar|Vantar]] 12:56, 18 June 2008 (BST)
::Nah, it's cool. I only logged in yesterday. Thanks. --{{User:Dux Ducis/sig}} 09:55, 22 June 2008 (BST)
==Heya==

You still around?--<small><span style="border: 2px solid #DDD">[[User:Vista|'''<span style="background-color: Ivory; color:Black">&nbsp;Vista&nbsp;</span>''']][[User_talk:Vista|<span style="background-color: #DDD; color: Ivory ">&nbsp;T&nbsp;</span>]]</span></small> 00:06, 28 November 2008 (UTC)
:Not really, I lurk on occasion but mostly to borrow formatting for other wikis, all my characters have idled out in game, and I have lost interest in wiki politics and mass categorization so without a project I feel like working on I have more or less drifted away. - [[User:Vantar|Vantar]] 05:24, 29 November 2008 (UTC)
::Yeah I thought so... to bad, I would've gone to your safe house again.--<small><span style="border: 2px solid #DDD">[[User:Vista|'''<span style="background-color: Ivory; color:Black">&nbsp;Vista&nbsp;</span>''']][[User_talk:Vista|<span style="background-color: #DDD; color: Ivory ">&nbsp;T&nbsp;</span>]]</span></small> 05:41, 29 November 2008 (UTC)
:::Actually last I heard the safe house was still up but that was a month ago- [[User:Vantar|Vantar]] 07:17, 29 November 2008 (UTC)

== Last Merged Page ==

{{quote|Vantar|These may have been the last locations page that needed to have location blocks made - [[User:Vantar|Vantar]] 14:58, 11 June 2010 (BST)}}
[[Special:DoubleRedirects]] would like a word. {{User:The_Rooster/Sig}} 15:04, 11 June 2010 (BST)
:Yes, but as far as I know those are all just merged page, the location blocks are created, they just need to be broken down into individual pages, for some of the streets in Reganbank I had to actually fill out the location block template. - [[User:Vantar|Vantar]] 15:09, 11 June 2010 (BST)
::I stand corrected. Then again I could be an ass and mention [[Pullin Square]] in all it's locationblock lacking glory. {{User:The_Rooster/Sig}} 15:18, 11 June 2010 (BST)
:::Well if you are going for ass points just mention the fact that 99% of [[Monroeville]] and [[Borehamwood]] are unblocked still :) - [[User:Vantar|Vantar]] 15:27, 11 June 2010 (BST)

== Thanks for the help! ==

{{Demerge}}

Thanks for your work demerging location pages. While the job was tedious, your assistance was invaluable in completing the task. As thanks for helping to improve this wiki, have template. {{:User:Red Hawk One/sig}} 01:20, 13 June 2010 (BST)
:No problem, glad to help out, just as long as we don't change the preferred [[LSG|location style]] back to merged again - [[User:Vantar|Vantar]] 01:30, 13 June 2010 (BST)

== Safehouse ==

Does [[User:Murdoc]] have permission to do [http://wiki.urbandead.com/index.php?title=Vantar%27s_Safehouse&diff=1732527&oldid=1720031 this]?--{{User:Yonnua Koponen/signature‎}} 17:29, 27 June 2010 (BST)
:Nope, but I'm pretty sure its an in game thing spilling into the wiki, If he does it again I'll take him to [[A/VB]] - [[User:Vantar|Vantar]] 18:35, 27 June 2010 (BST)
