While grateful for your support in the promotion bid I feel I really should point out that I simply do not have the skills or patience to do many of the technical functions that a sysop normally does. This is not to say that I cannot and will not learn enough to help out, rather to point out that I currently have no clue as to how they work. If you were voting for me because you trust my judgement on issues like A/VB and Misconduct then thank you… if you think I can be trusted to maintain the wiki infrastructure then please change your vote to abstain because I am crap at editing stuff let alone fixing other folks mistakes. --[[User:Honestmistake|Honestmistake]] 13:58, 3 February 2009 (UTC)
:Wow! Honesty on '''my''' wiki!
 
:Seriously though, I think you'll do a fine job. We've got people who understand the technical side of the wiki, and, personally, I imagine that there would be other sysops like you, that don't understand what Perl, MySQL, and Apache are, but they still make fine sysops.
 
:I've got sysop poweres on a wiki (I'm the only member :P,) and the tools aren't ''that'' hard. It's mostly just point and click.
 
:Oh, and you ''really'' need to learn how to use paragraphs :P. {{User:Linkthewindow/Sig}} 14:08, 3 February 2009 (UTC)

== [[NecroWatch]] ==
I was alerted your recent NecroNet scan update for the [[User:NTScan/The_Woodborne_Building|Woodborne Building "Scan"]]. Let me begin by thanking you for your past contributions to the NecroWatch Project. The success of the project has, and always will be, through the continued support of the UD community, and thus your contributions are therefore greatly appreciated. With that out of the way, I investigated the issue you encountered with the scan update and it appears to have been a problem with the image file upload. While I am not privy to the exact details suffice it to say the upload appeared to have failed, and yet, I was still able to view the image you had attempted to upload. I have since copied said image to my desktop as a BMP, converted it to PNG, and re-uploaded it successfully. I also included your original signature/timestamp on the associated User page (giving credit where credit is due). Please visit the link above and confirm that everything is now accurate. I hope this setback does not in any way discourage you from continuing to report scans via NecroWatch in the future and should you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact me. Thanks. --[[User:Mobius187|Mobius]] 17:37, 10 February 2009 (UTC)

Hi, Link.  I'm hoping you can help me with this question.  Are there specific guidelines (or rules) governing what may or may not be included on pages within a certain category such as a user page or a group page?  I've scanned the help pages, but I haven't seen anything of this nature discussed in there. (although I could have missed it) I'm not talking about general guidelines governing all pages, but more specific rules governing content on a group page or a user page. Thanks!--{{User:Lois_Millard/sig}} 12:52, 18 February 2009 (UTC)

:Drive-by response: Pages belonging to user or groups are "owned" by those entities, they are welcome to put up mostly whatever they like, and since it is not a community page, they are not subject to policies like NPOV. They are still subject to things like no personal attacks and no-wiki breaking content. People who are not that user or part of the group are generally not supposed to edit those pages unless express permission is given. Though nobody minds minor fixes; typos, broken links, categories and the like. This is the general impression I get anyway. {{User:The_Rooster/Sig}} 18:24, 18 February 2009 (UTC)

:I'll take a look now. {{User:Linkthewindow/Sig}} 10:52, 29 July 2010 (BST)


Okay, so here is what I've figured out already.
== 'Cussing' ==
*There are actually two tables/wiki pages needed.  One for the hard code used in the table, and another to enter in your variables.
*Practically the entire table uses <nowiki>{{{variables}}}</nowiki>.  At least three for each cell: one for it's corresponding X,Y location, one for its background color (which would correspond to certain text entered in), one for the hover-over tooltip showing the name of the location block, and potentially a fourth if you wanted to have a variable text in that block as well.
I haven't noticed any special wiki-code for it, so there is probably some standard HTML coding for the hover function, and CSS for the background color.  But I don't know if the wiki supports CSS within coding blocks, in which case I still need to figure out the particulars of that variable.
That's all I've figured out so far.  --{{User:Maverick Farrant/sig}} 18:30, 20 February 2009 (UTC)
:<small><small>With apologies to Link for stalking his talk page...again.</small></small> You've peaked my interest. What's all this about then? Are you referring to [[:Template:BarricadePlan]]? I was literally messing about with that template in my sandpit just yesterday to create an expanded plan of 12x12 so you could see how the plan meshed with the plans of neighbouring suburbs. I'm not sure if that's related, but I might be able to answer a few questions regardless. {{User:The_Rooster/Sig}} 19:38, 20 February 2009 (UTC)
::Pretty similar, Rooster.  I actually wanted to make a composite plan so you could see the barricade plan over an entire district (I was looking at [[Crooketon]],[[Grigg Heights]],[[Lerwill Heights]],[[Mornington]],and [[Reganbank]] for group reasons), but [[:Template:BarricadePlan]] doesn't support more than a 10x10 grid.  So I've been trying to figure out how they had the code set up. I'm currently coding it off of the wiki, and will probably create my own sandbox for this crazy thing once I get the framework laid out. --{{User:Maverick Farrant/sig}} 23:45, 20 February 2009 (UTC)
::Just created a [[User:Maverick Farrant/Sandbox|Sandbox]], or sandpit if you prefer, that has all the coding I've done for it thus far. --{{User:Maverick Farrant/sig}} 00:34, 21 February 2009 (UTC)


''Got conflicted, but I've got a nice long post to waste your time while I look at your code.''

:No idea sorry. Any idea where the term came from? I've started to hear it a bit (on the TV, but never IRL,) lately, and I'm rather confused as to why people can't just say "swearing." {{User:Linkthewindow/Sig}} 22:24, 2 August 2010 (BST)
::I kinda think it's to help keep the word "swear" intact as referring to taking an oath. If referring to them as "swear words" and saying "he's swearing" were our only means to describe that action and those words, the other meaning of "swear" might be lost. Kinda like how "ass" only ever refers to a person's rear end these days, as opposed to a donkey. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 23:13, 2 August 2010 (BST)

Two part post. First my quick interpretation of how the current template works, and then an explanation of what I was doing with my messing about.
== JUST WATING ==


The template takes the suburb's name, and and x and y variable. The x and y are the first digit of the suburbs positions in Malton, and is used to 'cheat' on giving a key.
IM waiting for the info and job, first time joining so im on the wait, let me know something...--[[User:EYE LASHES|EYE LASHES]] 00:38, 6 September 2010 (BST)


<pre>style="{{Template:BP{{{type00}}}}}" title="{{{text00}}}" | {{{content00}}}</pre> A typical call for a block
== yo yo yo yo ==


The template takes 3 variables for each block. One for it's type, this can be a raft of things, '''EH''' for EHB buildings (all shown yellow). VSB buildings are shown in their usual style. So you would enter '''Hospital''' for a VSB hospital block. This type variable decides what template is called to provide the format Sey you entered '''EH''' for <tt>type00</tt> this will in turn call <tt>Template:BPEH</tt> which includes the formatting code for an EH building. In this case returning <tt>background-color: #FFFF00;</tt> so you end up with
you back for real this time? As always your return is more than appreciated. -- {{User:DanceDanceRevolution/l}} 08:41, 7 January 2011 (UTC)
<pre>style="background-color: #FFFF00;" title="{{{text00}}}" | {{{content00}}}</pre>
:Probably just another holiday addiction :P I'm leaving on a two-week camp on Monday, but I'll be editing again after that. Again, probably become a bit less active when I go back to school. {{User:Linkthewindow/Sig}} 12:43, 8 January 2011 (UTC)
Which so far, just sets the colour of the cell to yellow.


The text bit is the building's name. That's it. So entering '''The Awesome Building''' for <tt>text00</tt> gives
== You too ==
<pre>style="background-color: #FFFF00;" title="The Awesome Building" | {{{content00}}}</pre>
The title= bit is just the mouseover text.


The content bit is just whatever text people wish to have appear inside the cell. Notice how the variable for <tt>content00</tt> appears after the pipe. Mostly this is left blank. If we entered '''TEXT''' for <tt>content00</tt> in this case we'd get:

And so that cell would show up yellow, with "TEXT" written on it, and the tooltip  would be "The Awesome Building".
== Just getting back into the game, could use some help ==


Repeat this for 100 blocks and you've got your map. If you wanted to extend this to be two suburbs wide, you literally just double the table up. You'd have to add 100 new blocks and so a total of 300 extra variables. On each row you'd have 20 cells as opposed to 10.
Hey there, I wasn't sure who to talk to but you seem like you've got some authoritah so I guess I'll ask you about this! I've been on a three-year hiatus from Urban Dead and I'm just getting back into it. I was wondering, is there anything major that's changed in that amount of time that I should be aware of? I've pretty much gotten the hang of things again but I'm still somewhat lost as to what I'm doing. I've reacquainted myself with my suburb (West Greyside) and I've gotten some combat experience again, but I feel like I've been gone forever and am not quite "in the know." If there's any updates or information you could offer me, I would appreciate it!


Now my messing: I had code set up in my sandpit, which might help. You can find a modified template [[User:The Rooster/Sandpit/8|here]], an example output [[User:The Rooster/Sandpit/6|here]] and the extra formatting template [[User:The Rooster/Sandpit/10|here]]. This calls the existing templates for nearby suburbs and adds their data in automatically.  This however is too template expensive for real use (about 91% of the include limit). That said, it does do a lot of processing in order to include the templates automatically. It would work with a lot less calls it you set the extra squares manually. This however could create a problems in consistency and can make updates a hassle since if you altered any buildings on the edge for one plan, you'd have to go and update another plan too. One idea I had to get round this would be to have a store of code for all 10000 blocks in Malton (or maybe a district, of 500) and then a plan could call the buildings it wanted. I'm not sure how the inclusion limits would fare, there are less calls made but since you'd have to transclude from a massive store of data, that would cost a lot. A district sized store would probably work fine though.
(I also took a look at my user page on the wiki here and apparently you scolded me for editing another user's page without permission a long time ago. Like, March 2009 ago. I don't even remember that at all, haha. But I figured you were a moderator or something so that's why I'm here asking you for help. Just a funny story of how I got here. Thanks!)  --[[User:Darth Elsij|Darth Elsij]] 00:23, 24 March 2012 (UTC)
:link is not around so much anymore.. main page, and wiki news will answer most of your questions.. you could also try project welcome. welcome back --{{User:Sexualharrison/sig}}<small>14:32, 24 March 2012 </small>


You would have each block stored by it's co-ords. EG <tt>type1356</tt>, <tt>text1356</tt> and <tt>content1356</tt> for the block at (13,56). You would also set up the list so it could be called with a template of your choosing.


To set up a table, you'd have something like this as the call for each block:
==You==
<pre>style="{{Template:BP{{{type1356}}}}}" title="{{{text1356}}}" | {{{content1356}}}</pre>
piece of shit, don't think for just one second that I fell for it!
And you'd enter the co-ords you wanted for each block manually. This is of course a bastard for 500 blocks since that needs 1500 manual bits of typing. You can reduce it by calling the table through another template in a method which is too complicated for me to be able to think about and explain proerly with all the other templates I'm having to create in my imagination rather than having to hand. However, you could set about 5-10 numbers in this template, and it would create the other 1500 co-ords wanted for you, then you can call the thing with these created co-ords, and then...something magical happens and you're left with an awesome cade plan for many suburbs.

Not what we're after Ross. We've got the system already, but we want it to be automatic.


Anyway, a store is easily possible. Take the current DangerReport system (for building's). They are all data store's in a sense. If you include one on a page, the template used is one that create the usual danger report we are all used to seeing by use of the template. The magic bit is that you can call the page and specify the template you want to use! This allows systems like the [[NT Status Map]] or the [[Mobile Phone Mast]] page to work because coders can decide how they want this data processed. So an example:

The store holds what we want, and the map can call the building's it wants. The only problem is that the coder would have to manually enter what he needs for every block! Too long. Let's say we were dealing with Dakerstown and just wanting it's plan. All the blocks there range from 00-09 on X and 00-09 on Y too. We can take advantage of this with another template. If the plan has generic squares 00-99 on each side, we need to tell these squares which Malton block to reference. Let's say we are after blocks in Peddlesden Village. They range from 00-09 on the X and 20-29 on the Y. We can input X=0 and Y=2 and get most of the work done for us. So say we wanted 4,26 called.


*Map Template: <tt>title="{{{text0406}}}"</tt> with <tt>x=0|y=2</tt>
Needs more friending me on Facebook because I ain't got time to fuck with other shit. Haven't been on steam in ages, backloggery in years, and I don't even remember what IRC program to use at this point.
calls
*Co-ord Caller Template: <tt>text0406={{{text{{{x}}}4{{{y}}}6}}}"</tt>
calls
*Data Store: <tt>text0426=The Awesome Building</tt>


I ''think'' I've got that right. The map template has the usual 100 generic block locations like we've got now, and using the x and y vars can set up a mapping for each generic block to an exact Malton block. Then the mapping can retrieve the data for the Malton block. I'll try setting it up in my sandpit... {{User:The_Rooster/Sig}} 20:22, 21 February 2009 (UTC)

:I hate to sound like a total luddite, but for mavericks purposes, could you not just include the barricade template 4times in a 2*2table? Stripping out the key from the template (obviously). {{User:Rosslessness/Sig}} 20:30, 21 February 2009 (UTC)
::Could do actually. All this automatic transclusion has fried my brain. Is this for the OBR? Might be worth just looking into totally substing all the current plans then manually combining them.

But like I said, brain failure for the moment. {{User:The_Rooster/Sig}} 21:22, 21 February 2009 (UTC)
:::Specifically the one I'm working on is for the [[OBR]], yes.  But I think it'd be great if we could find a way to generalize it for any district in Malton.  I'll check out your sandpit in a little bit, Rooster.  The repetitive coding I've been doing in my sandbox coupled with the information you've just presented has smoke coming from my ears.  >.<  --{{User:Maverick Farrant/sig}} 19:50, 22 February 2009 (UTC)
::::I still haven't got the data store thing to work properly. I think my above example may be flawed badly to some extent. I have realized that I need like 7 or so pits to get it working as I envisage, and I don't have the capacity for that right now, nor do I fancy having 17 subpits. But the old example where it includes adjacent 'burb edges is still there.

:::::We'll have to think of another way to make it happen then.  I like what you did with the adjacent 'burb plan.  It looks very nice and certainly gets the job done.  Ross--since I forgot to address you in my last reply--a 2x2 wouldn't be enough.  Because of the way districts are set up it would have to be either a 3x2 or a 3x3, depending on the district.  Also, we're trying to figure out a way to construct such a plan that will automatically update with existing barricade plans. --{{User:Maverick Farrant/sig}} 20:37, 22 February 2009 (UTC)
::::::I am impressed you had the perseverance to put up with adding all those blocks. Commendable! Now, here's why you need a plethora of templates to make this work (and why it therefore, probably won't :P) You make another template and call your current one, and set each variable. EG: <tt>textR00=The Awesome Building</tt> Repeat for all 1500 variables. Now, what you'd rather have is '''The Awesome Building''' to automatically be the text00 call in the related cade plan. So you make another template (We'll call it ''BoringTemplate'') which simply has <tt>{{{text00}}}</tt> in it. Then you call the related cade plan you want, and have the template call set to the ''BoringTemplate''. To do this you need to make another template (''CodeCaller'') with <tt><nowiki>{{RelatedCadePlan|template=BoringTemplate}}</nowiki></tt> as its code. You'll also need to edit the related cade plan so it starts with <tt>{{{{{template|BarricadePlan}}}</tt> as opposed to <tt>{{BarricadePlan</tt>


::::::The ''CodeCaller'' Template hopefully now shows the text, so you could just add this code in in order to show that block automaticaaly. But we'd need a ''BoringTemplate'' for every possible generic block! So instead we add more templates to allow us to set x and y vars and whether we are after the text, type or content. Some more magic happens. Eventually the server crashes and the apocalypse comes. But we now have an automatically updating cade plan woo! I think my first paragraph is actually what would need to be done though, if we build it up step by step. {{User:The_Rooster/Sig}} 20:54, 22 February 2009 (UTC)
:::::::What about making 4 large tables (one for each quadrant), and then setting up a ''BoringTemplate'' for each of those?  Wouldn't it then be possible to create a ''CodeCaller'' template for whatever final product is desired (a single suburb, a district, what have you)?


:::::::I guess what I'm thinking of is something similar to the Suburb Danger Map.  You update an individual suburb's danger level, and it updates on that suburb's page as well as the larger page with all the suburbs. The mini-map in the corner of each suburb page also displays the danger level for surrounding suburbs, so wouldn't it be possible to do something like this except with each individual block of Malton?  Or am I just talking crazy and barrelling head-first towards Armaggeddon?  --{{User:Maverick Farrant/sig}} 21:11, 22 February 2009 (UTC)

::::::::Yeah, that's a rather obvious thing to do actually...I'm certainly not entirely on the ball right now. Set ''BoringTemplate'' up for one suburb, then you can have ''CodeCaller'' getting you the code for one specified burb. Then you can set up a template for a district by calling ''CodeCaller'' for the suburbs you want. Probably some other template trickery involved, but yeah...could work if I'm thinking right for once. {{User:The_Rooster/Sig}} 21:26, 22 February 2009 (UTC)

Go to your preferences at the top right of the page.
Check the raw signatures option.
Put the following code in the signature field: {{SUBST:nosubst|User:Monkey See monkey Do/sig}}
Now you can alter your sig at any time and all instances of you signing with that sig will change. You then only ever have to make changes on your sig page itself.

I know you're not so active around here these days, but I figured I'd give it a shot anyway. —Aichon— 01:31, 21 April 2010 (BST)

Just noticed

you speak indonesian at basic levels. where do you learn it?

why i ask? because im a indonesian :D so MAYBE if you want to learn more indonesian language, i would gladly teach you :D--Evan ArnoldiTalkStoriesTimeMachine 16:01, 22 July 2010 (BST)

I don't speak a great deal anymore - I learned it at school up until last year but I dropped it due to timetable concerns.
Thanks for the offer, but I think I've got enough on my plate, with college and all :( Linkthewindow  Talk  22:02, 22 July 2010 (BST)

Your name has come up...

...in relation to a Misconduct case. I apologize for not having mentioned it earlier, but it completely slipped my mind to notify the affected parties at the time that I posted the case. —Aichon— 04:43, 29 July 2010 (BST)

I'll take a look now. Linkthewindow  Talk  10:52, 29 July 2010 (BST)

'Cussing'

I know, me too. I was going to write something about that but couldn't find a way to make it funny. If you have any ideas do let me know. --Dawkins DAWKINS IS WATCHIN' [T][P!][W!][♞] is currently: having his arm torn off by a zombie. 22:20, 2 August 2010 (BST)

No idea sorry. Any idea where the term came from? I've started to hear it a bit (on the TV, but never IRL,) lately, and I'm rather confused as to why people can't just say "swearing." Linkthewindow  Talk  22:24, 2 August 2010 (BST)
I kinda think it's to help keep the word "swear" intact as referring to taking an oath. If referring to them as "swear words" and saying "he's swearing" were our only means to describe that action and those words, the other meaning of "swear" might be lost. Kinda like how "ass" only ever refers to a person's rear end these days, as opposed to a donkey. —Aichon— 23:13, 2 August 2010 (BST)
Bob Ross is the only man who can get away with using words like "cussing" and not sound stupid. But that's just our little secret, right there. We're coming to get you, Barbara 23:27, 2 August 2010 (BST)
Whoa whoa whoa. You're fully forgetting Clint Eastwood. At leased, I hope you forgot.. *angry squint* -- 02:06, 3 August 2010 (BST)
Clint is a man who does not mince his words. We're coming to get you, Barbara 02:13, 3 August 2010 (BST)
Good point, Aich. I always just assumed that people were smart enough to tell which meaning was warrented when :/. Linkthewindow  Talk  08:07, 3 August 2010 (BST)
As do I, but I think we might be putting too much faith in humanity. —Aichon— 20:52, 3 August 2010 (BST)
Faith in humanity? Bah. Humans are not worth the flesh they are printed on. --Maverick Talk - OBR Praise Knowledge! 404 09:03, 4 August 2010 (BST)

you back for real this time? As always your return is more than appreciated. -- LEMON #1 08:41, 7 January 2011 (UTC)

Probably just another holiday addiction :P I'm leaving on a two-week camp on Monday, but I'll be editing again after that. Again, probably become a bit less active when I go back to school. Linkthewindow  Talk  12:43, 8 January 2011 (UTC)

You too

You people suck at this. How many more of you guys welcomed users verifiably over two years old? Shit, welcome newbie still sucks. --Karekmaps 2.0?! 23:02, 9 May 2011 (BST)

Just getting back into the game, could use some help

Hey there, I wasn't sure who to talk to but you seem like you've got some authoritah so I guess I'll ask you about this! I've been on a three-year hiatus from Urban Dead and I'm just getting back into it. I was wondering, is there anything major that's changed in that amount of time that I should be aware of? I've pretty much gotten the hang of things again but I'm still somewhat lost as to what I'm doing. I've reacquainted myself with my suburb (West Greyside) and I've gotten some combat experience again, but I feel like I've been gone forever and am not quite "in the know." If there's any updates or information you could offer me, I would appreciate it!

(I also took a look at my user page on the wiki here and apparently you scolded me for editing another user's page without permission a long time ago. Like, March 2009 ago. I don't even remember that at all, haha. But I figured you were a moderator or something so that's why I'm here asking you for help. Just a funny story of how I got here. Thanks!) --Darth Elsij 00:23, 24 March 2012 (UTC)

link is not around so much anymore.. main page, and wiki news will answer most of your questions.. you could also try project welcome. welcome back --User:Sexualharrison14:32, 24 March 2012


You

piece of shit, don't think for just one second that I fell for it!

Okay, I did. :( --SA 21:22, 2 January 2013 (UTC)

I'm just holding a grudge against you guys because you deleted UHUB. It was like the first thing I did around here. Linkthewindow  Talk  08:14, 3 January 2013 (UTC)
I didn't know that was deleted! D: That sucks. Also, if you had been following any sort of wiki history, I was banned for a long time. So it wasn't me.--SA 13:09, 3 January 2013 (UTC)
You're easy to blame. :P Also, you were unbanned by the time it was deleted, I think. —Aichon— 15:38, 3 January 2013 (UTC)
Blame me. Soreee. --Rosslessness 15:56, 3 January 2013 (UTC)
I see A/M hasn't been used much lately. Seriously two cases in 2012? What the hell happened to the UD Wiki? Linkthewindow  Talk  16:28, 3 January 2013 (UTC)
We got some Sysops with the intended level of responsibility and dedication to the job. Also the number of active users dropped bellow the 'peak troll margin' and the normal run of malcontents causing trouble peetered out. Parson Johanas 16:34, 3 January 2013 (UTC)
I left about threeish years ago now, and I've been coming back/lurking every few months. This looks like the culmination of a long term trend - when I left, there was little drama, and it's been on a downward spiral ever since. Linkthewindow  Talk  23:51, 3 January 2013 (UTC)
The period of inactivity at A/M is directly tied to my last demotion. We're coming to get you, Barbara 23:47, 3 January 2013 (UTC)
Which means to liven this place up, you and I need to be promoted.--SA 00:25, 4 January 2013 (UTC)
I heard thar be lil drama in the wiki... it would be a shame if someonehappened to it... --hagnat 23:50, 8 January 2013 (UTC)

Which includes me you cock knuckle. :( --SA 21:25, 3 January 2013 (UTC)


Also, come back and we could become crat's together. And rule the wiki with our iron fists again! D: --SA 00:26, 4 January 2013 (UTC)

I answer on Facebook. :|--SA 20:17, 25 May 2014 (UTC)

No-one ever leaves UD. --Janus talk 19:20, 5 June 2017 (UTC)

It's like an infernal vortex that keeps on sucking you back in. It's pretty funny to think when I started though, that was like six Australian prime ministers ago, god knows how many Italian prime ministers, and I hadn't even graduated high school.
