| Good work, mate, but I'd like to change around the message content a tad (I'm a bit busy at the moment, so pay me no mind), and as you can see [[User:VI/SandboxII|here]] (ignore the textual content, it's just a placeholder) I re-did the colour and indent settings to fit more pleasingly into the template. Did you say you redid the scan update template thingy of Alka's? Bravo! Do you have a link to it? I don't see it in your sandbox. Sorry for the brusqueness, I'm a bit pressed for time. {{User:VI/S}} 06:37, 14 June 2009 (BST)
| | Hey man how you been? Long time no see we all sorta drifted off at some point. Anyway back to the point the DSS is working up a new game plan swing by the forum for details if you're interested. If not no hard feelings but if you're still in Ruddle you may wanna try talking to CAPD I'm sure that a couple of their officers would be happy to revive a fine upstanding member of the community such as yourself.--{{User:ZIPO/sig}} 07:32, 25 April 2011 (BST) |

| | Some time back, by [[User:Asheets|CRES Doctor]] noticed the [[The Big Prick]] was beginning to stagnate, leading him to put out a call for individuals interested in helping TBP move forward. I have volunteered my services to help this happen. In my humble opinion, the idea behind the formation of TBP was among the more unique in Malton's history. In its time, it broke up the monotony that was quickly setting in and gave adventurous individuals a chance to try something new. It also helped de-stigmatize people regarding combat revives and make Malton a place where those of dual nature could have a chance to explore their separate agendas. As many of these issues are not as large as they once were, it may seem we have reached a time when Malton no longer needs The Big Prick. I say, it's not all about being needed. Do you still enjoy reviving zombies? Is your first response at a break-in to check for brain rot? Mine is. Being a prick is not a job, it is part of who we are, and though it may not need us in the same way that it once did, with the rise of Apathy and the decline of survivor groups in Malton, the city cannot afford to lose the Big Prick. Accordingly, I have begun reworking some of the format of TBP pages including a [[User:A.schwan/sandbox/TBPretool|retool of the main page]] and the introduction of [[User:A.schwan/sandbox/TBPretool/members|and achievement system]] that will let pricks gain recognition on their own time on their own terms. As a person who still chooses to fly the colors of TBP, I would appreciate your feedback on my talk page or [http://s4.zetaboards.com/bigprick/index/ on the TBP forum]. Thank you for your time and may your syringes never be blunted. |

|
| | Amen, brother! Yes, the first thing I do is check for brain rot. To CRAP or not to CRAP is not a question for me. I continue to have far too many needles on me at any given time. I am currently doing research in Mornington, stop by if you get a chance. Thanks!--[[User:Dr Mycroft Chris|Dr Mycroft Chris]] 17:02, 22 September 2012 (BST) |

| == Template:NWnews == | | ==Thank you== |
|

|
| I've took the liberty to fix it. Setting <code>align="left"</code> causes the template box to hover to the left and the text to wrap around it. By removing alignment code altogether, the template stays to the left but the text doesn't wrap.
| | Thanks for showing me the way to NecroWatch :) I've added myself to the list and have started scanning. I also [[User:Peralta/Scans|borrowed the map]] you use to keep track of which NT facilities you already scanned. Grtz, {{User:Peralta/Signature}} 00:26, 5 November 2012 (UTC) |
| | |
| Just one question though, was the decision to change the template yours? Or was it a team effort?
| |
| | |
| The reason I'm asking this is because, while the template looks nice and professional, I kind of miss the good old A.L.I.C.E. -- [[User:Kittithaj|Kittithaj]] 18:17, 17 June 2009 (BST)
| |
| | |
| :As you are doubtless aware, NecroWatch is at best a loose confederation of like-minded citizens. We recieved a "complaint" about the ALICE template being too obtrusive. We started a discussion between it's creator and us. He gave us carte blanc to re-do as we saw fit. However, we also took this opportunity to change the design as this new template promotes NecroWatch, which is the whole reason we started the template idea to begin with. The ALICE template is sooo cool, but only promotes us tangentially. I must admit, I took action quickly once we had a general consensus and no one voiced a dissenting opinion, so voila! Nothing is carved in stone, all things can change. But it is nice to just get it done, too. BTW, thanks for the adjusting the code. That's a bit of a weak spot for me.--[[User:Dr Mycroft Chris|Dr Mycroft Chris]] 21:08, 17 June 2009 (BST)
| |
| | |
| ::Well, to tell the truth, I'm not a Wiki code master either. I tried to change its position to <code>align=center</code> as a temporary (and "obtrusive") solution. But I misspelled it to "ce'''m'''ter" and the preview worked fine. So I just removed the alignment altogether. Talk about a lucky mistake.
| |
| ::Anyway, the A.L.I.C.E. template is now forever preserved on the discussion page so people can relive their fond memories of it. -- [[User:Kittithaj|Kittithaj]] 16:31, 19 June 2009 (BST)

| == Recent News Template ==
| |
| | |
| Hey there Dr Mycroft. I just wanted to let you know that I'm reverting your [http://wiki.urbandead.com/index.php?title=Template:Recent_news&diff=1491554&oldid=1482115|the recent edit] to the template [[Template:recent news|recent news]].
| |
| | |
| The way the template is supposed to work is you type <pre> {{recent news}} </pre> onto a location page and the template will set up a news archive link. You don't actually add any information to the template itself, but rather to the location page. I hope that makes sense? Anyways if you have any questions on how to use the template or if you have any suggestions on how to improve the directions for its use please feel free to contact me via my talk page.

| |
| | |
| ::Thanks for that, 'cause it was a little bit confusing and I still have no idea how that happened.

I've checked your past history a bit, and you don't seem to be the "delete everything" type. I see you usually save longer news, but remove really short ones, those without signature or timestamp.
| |
| | |
| Well, don't do that. Every news, no matter how trivial, has historical value. An unsigned news can still be salvaged, just check up its history, and use [[Template:Unsigned]] <code><nowiki>{{Unsigned|User name|Edit time}}</nowiki></code> to add the signature (you can see my example at those pages, where I edit back those news.) If you can't find that information (edit older than August 2008, that history was removed), then just leave it as it is. Thank you. -- [[User:Kittithaj|Kittithaj]] 01:16, 23 September 2009 (BST)
| |
| | |
| :I absolutely agree! Just so you know, what I regularly delete is the "Nothing to report" comment at the "Current Events" section of NTs or yes, an undated, unsigned comment IF it carries no historical value, i.e. "Zombies are trying to break in...!" or "I rested here and my penis RULZ!" Uggh...
| |

| :However, your point is very well received. If you wish, I will forward to you any material I find questionable. Thanks for your support in the past and I look forward to working with you in the future.--[[User:Dr Mycroft Chris|Dr Mycroft Chris]] 02:32, 23 September 2009 (BST)

| |
| | |
| :Yes! I can't post the template onto the respective suburb & building pages and their needs to be proof that I actually did make that scout report. Besides, who you gonna' ask?

| Hey, me again. I was about to create the new Scout report template for [[Vinetown]], but noticed an inconsistency.

| |
| Hi Dr Mycroft Chris,
| |
| I'm a newbie in UD and NecroWatch and I saw that you are decidedly experienced in updating NecroTech scans so... I have a problem that I can't solve and I hope you can help ... I followed the guide and I've updated the scan image of a building (Coutts Building - EastonWood),but I noticed that the previously scan remains in the wiki page, when I'm expecting that it changes... I changed the previous user sign with mine, hoping that something happends but nothing. Searching in the Nechrowatch database scan I also find the image that I've updated...so the question is...where is the mistake in uploading the scan?
| |
| Sorry for the bad English, and thanks in advance --[[User:Vera Potter|Vera Potter]] 18:26, 20 December 2009 (UTC)
| |
| : Vera, it looks fine to me; I see your uploaded scan on the Coutts page. I think the problem is you have to refresh your browser after you make the update; you are probably seeing an older version of the scan as your browser has not reloaded the page yet. Welcome btw! -[[User:MHSstaff|MHSstaff]] 20:20, 20 December 2009 (UTC)

| | |
| :::Sorry for the lateness of my reply, but it seems MHS has answered your query. Welcome aboard BTW!
