== I had a question. ==
Well this User:Grimblackreeper has a talk page, but no user page. It was recently made, I think February, and there's no log of deletion for the User Page. [http://wiki.urbandead.com/index.php/User_talk:Grimblackreeper Here] is the page I stumbled on, and I was wondering what to do with it, put it up for speedy delete, or what cause of action should be followed?
Oh and another question, do you know how to configure an auto update for the UDTool? I'm really stumped and can't seem to figure it out. Any help would be much appreciated Link, thanks. --{{User:Denver Randleman/sig}} 06:39, 7 April 2009 (BST)
:As for the user talk page, it doesn't really matter. Quite a few users have a {{[[Template:WN|WN]]}} posted on their user talk page, even when they don't have a user page. So, just leave it for now :).
:I've done autoupdatable lists before. They aren't easy to do, but if you've got a large group, then they will save you some time.
:You could try having a look at the [http://zombies.dementiastudios.org/boards/index.php?topic=12.0 zerg list] (I stole my code of them,) and trying to figure it out that way.
:I don't really have the time now for a detailed guide, but if you've got any specific questions, fire away. {{User:Linkthewindow/Sig}} 10:21, 7 April 2009 (BST)
::Yeah, I can't really think of any I'm just hammering away at it. Oh, I can't seem to get the Text Rapist auto update to work on the [[FANNY/Ignore List]]. I already have the zerg liste auto update, but the ignore list isn't working for me. Does it work for you?
::On a side note, I saw that you did the wiki info on Kevan's April Fools joke, do you need more screen shots of different location? Since I was in a Train Station and I took and iwitness [http://iwrecords.urbandead.info/04-01-09_2000hrs_PRIVATE/IN_0-0_April_Fools_92a-f26-c00.html here]. Completely random, but I figured it couldn't hurt to ask. --{{User:Denver Randleman/sig}} 17:19, 8 April 2009 (BST)
:::The Ignore List doesn't have an autoupdater, but it doesn't usually get updated the amount the Zerg Liste does.
:::Oh, and I'll throw that on the [[April Fools]] page when I'm less tired. It would be nice to have one from each location. {{User:Linkthewindow/Sig}} 08:24, 9 April 2009 (BST)
::::Yes it does at, the bottom underneath the "UDTool List" heading it says,"To have UDTool automatically update this list, include the following code in your UDTool list" and then it gives you a code, which I can't seem for the life of me to get to work. I just have it all working manually, I think I'm gonna keep it that way for now. :P --{{User:Denver Randleman/sig}} 16:19, 9 April 2009 (BST)

You probably don't like other people putting these headings on your thing, but I thought it was necessary...
Anyway, I wanted to know if my template for new users [[http://wiki.urbandead.com/index.php/New_user_template]] could be added to the help section. I think it could.

== 'Outing' you ==
So far my post has been removed, I've been reported for vandalism (which nobody bothered to tell me about), I've been warned and now the warning has been retracted. My question is did you interpret it as a joke, which was how it was intended, and if so do you have any issue if I undo the removal? (with a small alteration to ensure people realise who this is directed at and that it is indeed a joke) --[[User:Roorgh|Roorgh]] 18:03, 29 April 2009 (BST)
:Link always knew it was a joke... But no one else did. We (including me) thought it was purely aimed at Callista, and no, you can't put it back up, Boxy said on your case that you shouldn't <u>pretend</u> to give out personal details either. {{User:DanceDanceRevolution/sig}} 13:42, 1 May 2009 (BST)
::Yeah (sorry for the late reply, I seem to have forgotten about this.) Anyway, yeah, I knew it was a joke. I laughed at the stupidity of it. But DDR's right, for those that don't know me (it's common knowledge that I'm Australian,) it could be seen as serious, and since people seem to think it was aimed at Cali (especially considering post-Twitter thing,) it's a bit too far, and crosses the line. Personal information is something that one should be very careful about revealing - even as a joke. {{User:Linkthewindow/Sig}} 13:45, 1 May 2009 (BST)

== Redundant Disclaimer ==
I've been looking at my archived promotion bid [[UDWiki:Administration/Promotions/Blake_Firedancer|here]], and the disclaimer bothers me.
It asks that the page not be edited, yet surely the fact that these bids are Protected from editing shortly after being created (and thus, impossible to be edited by anyone other than SysOps) shows that this disclaimer is not overly necessary.
As the SysOps are the only ones with the power, wouldn't it make more sense to warn them during the archival process? Granted, the disclaimer in its current state does not harm the wiki in any way, however anything which makes the matter clearer wouldn't hurt either, and would be an improvement.
If there is any reason why the disclaimer is the way that it is that I may have missed, then I would be glad to hear it. I'm just wondering why the page warns against doing something that is impossible.
I was thinking about taking this to Policy Discussion, but I thought I'd ask a current SysOp and see if I can get some answers before I pursue the 'official' path of inquiry. --{{User:Blake Firedancer/sig}} 11:31, 19 June 2009 (BST)
:I've got no idea - it was created before the history purge - it's old, and perhaps predates when sysops realize that they could protect things?
:Ether way, there can occasionally be quite a gap between the actual archiving of the page (often done by a regular user,) and the protection (done when a sysop realizes it needs protection.) That's probably why the template is worded the way it is. {{User:Linkthewindow/Sig}} 11:35, 19 June 2009 (BST)
::I may be off the mark cause I've had a few beers, but firstly, as Link. Secondly, Sysop's don't need to be warned not to edit protected archives because its common knowledge, knowledge that a sysop would have to know, had they made the position. Even the dumbest sysop would know that protected archives are done so for a reason. No point making a template for a public archive warning sysops not to protect it, and on one else. Just last week I went and protected archives arbitration cases from 2 or 3 years ago that sysops hadn't protected. Just an example of how things can be missed. {{User:DanceDanceRevolution/sig}} 13:56, 19 June 2009 (BST)

== RE: Edit to the Danger Building page ==
Allow me to thank you for the welcome and I can assure you that these danger reports will serve their purpose in time with a helpful project that I am in the mere first stages of (well more of a prototype than a project).
In response to your initial question, there are two reasons that I removed the information:
*Firstly, was that the group Black Mesa has not existed on the wiki for sometime.
*Secondly and most importantly,I was under the impression that [[UDWiki:Location Style Guide]] was applicable for all location pages.
I understand your concerns and respect your authority on these matters, however, I would like a second opinion on this subject or a link to a page that supports what you have previously stated.  This request is not made from any contempt for you or the rules, it is just that I am now confused with local editing practices.  I will gladly halt the editing of the Urban Dead wiki until this matter is clarified (so as not to make the same mistake twice).--[[User:Matthew Kuper|Matthew Kuper]] 15:20, 20 June 2009 (BST)
:I see your points.  But, what if a two groups are trying to claim the same location as their own?  Or, a groups location page conflicts with role play flavor of that location (i.e. [[The Danger Family]]).  Are group locations first come first serve or a messy free-for-all? I guess I have questions of group/location legitimacy issues rather than humor issues (of which I completely understand).
:Perhaps an easy solution would be to create [[The Danger Family]] as trenchies.

==Listen You==
I'm going to tell you the same thing I've told Boxy and everyone else: Leave me the hell alone. I'm not causing you or anyone else any grief, so why must you always hunt me down like a worthless animal? Its not fair, I was always unjustly banned by Grim and even now that he's been proven a fascist freak like I always pointed out, I'm still here having to sneak on using a multitude of socks just to update my group page. Its pissing me off and if I'm going to continue to be treated like a vandal, then a vandal is what you'll get. Leave me alone and you won't even notice me. Its obvious by now you can't stop me anyway. And Suicidal Angel promised he'd take action to make this right. Can't I be given a fair chance, especially now that Grim's judgement has been proven unsound?
I await a REPLY, not a banning. If you have any honor you'll at least give me that much. [[User:Angelfood Cake|Angelfood Cake]] 03:03, 5 July 2009 (BST)

Well honestly I've never had to throw one before. Usually people listen to reason, not arbitrary bureaucratic nonsense. At any rate how am I supposed to motivate the community to do anything if I cannot even speak with them? Can't I have some sort of account that is limited to a talk page, or something? That way I could at least speak with SuicidalAngel.

What I'm referring to is that before Grim even got involved, I had an email discussion with you and clearly warned you of the consequences of continued vandalism. You ignored that, instead choosing to use a sock puppet to avoid my short (48hr) ban.
You keep saying you'll change, but your actions speak louder than your words, which have become worthless, to me.

I don't see to what you are referring, "being reasonable with me".
Using socks is the only option I've ever had, and that's to simply be heard, not to get away with anything else. Whatever "threats" I may have made, you and I both know I can't truly accomplish anything of meaning using sockpuppets alone. My only intention always has been to convince the community I'm not a threat. My frustration pushes me in other directions at times, but I assure you I only want to come back so I can update the Lockettside Valkyries and Lockettside suburb pages when necessary. You are a sysop. The "options" you speak of are illusions. You are one of a few with any real authority, if you used it to do what is right here I doubt anyone would complain. In fact, in my experience onlyyou and cyberbob ever had any real problem with me, other than of course Grim, and we all see now how much his opinions mean.

I tried being reasonable with you 2 years ago, and all you did was come back to the wiki and commit exactly the same type of vandalism again, and then go on your sock puppet spree when caught.
Threatening to constantly vandalise the wiki to make us forget your past isn't going to get me to let you back. If someone make a policy discussion asking for you to be allowed back, and the community shows that they are prepared to give you another chance, then I will respect that, otherwise I have no option but to enforce current policy.

Just telling you incase I missed something. It's the latezor and it's the first time I've cycled the guides. --[[User:DanceDanceRevolution|<big><u><span style="color:DarkSlateGray">ϑ</span><span style="color:DarkBlue ">ϑ</span><span style="color:DarkSlateBlue">ℜ</span></u></big>]] 15:35, 28 July 2009 (BST)

== Correct location for policy discussion? ==
I was wondering, where is the correct place to initiate a discussion of vandalism reporting policy? Is it [[UDWiki_talk:Vandalism|UDWiki:Vandalism:Discussion]]? I only ask as I'm surprised that that page currently doesn't exist. As for why? The lack of notification that you've been reported, unless you're fastidiously checking the vandalism reports is, in my opinion, quite disagreeable. --[[User:Roorgh|Roorgh]] 09:10, 5 August 2009 (BST)
:Policy discussion is at [[A/PD]], although for something like this, it isn't worth a policy (which is, understandably, quite a bit of bother.) Try [[UDWiki talk:Administration/Vandal Banning|A/VB talk]]. {{User:Linkthewindow/Sig}} 09:17, 5 August 2009 (BST)

He's another one of the dickhead crowd (Jed, Read etc); he referred to DDR by name and is part of the BBK which is a group of people from their school. I wouldn't even mind betting he's got some people around at his house tonight because he pretty much never edits and nobody else from that group except DDR has been.

I may soon apply for sysopship. What would be your opinion on the matter? (And in fact, if you're reading this, and aren't link, what would be YOUR opinion?) I've made a substantial amount of edits of recent, primarily to the suburb pages. I've been archiving news posts, which I'll be doing again on the 12th, and I'm in the process of adding icons to the headers of the suburb pages. Although I've been trollish in the past, I've worked on it recently, and would do even more so if I were to run for sysop. So, what do you think? Should I run, or not?--{{User:Yonnua Koponen/signature‎}} 20:18, 4 September 2009 (BST)
:How much do you like drama, especially the silly sort of which we now encounter with the 2 "Cool" group trollin' up and down the wiki? --'''[[User:BobBoberton|<span style="color: #FF4500">Bob Boberton</span>]] <sup>[[The_Fortress|<span style="color: #6B8E23">TF</span>]] / [[The_Fortress/Dark_Watch|<span style="color: #778899 ">DW</span>]]</sup>''' [[Image:Littlemudkipsig.gif]] 20:26, 4 September 2009 (BST)
::Personally, I think that the whole 2 cool thing has been allowed too much leniancy, especially with ALiM. Sure, it should exist still, but it shouldn't be anywhere near as prominant. They've turned large numbers of locations pages that were stubs in to stubs with a vague reference to prostitution. However, as it stands, unless there was a massive overhaul, they should just be kept to themselves. On the note of drama as a whole, I'm opposed to it, naturally. Drama should always be avoided, especially silly kinds.--{{User:Yonnua Koponen/signature‎}} 20:35, 4 September 2009 (BST)

:Because I have reason to assume he's just petty enough to think he can get away with enforcing a ban on users participating in a page based for discussion and knowing he's a touchy bitch when it comes to me I feel like saving you guys drama, I'm going to comment here instead and then consider proposing a policy in a similar vein to perform the same basic function without the major obstructive issue of nonsensical words that can only be used for banning unsuspecting users for not going through enough motions. There's some very massive issues when it comes to trying to assign page ownership principles to images, the biggest being that images are page elements not pages, ownership would essentially just lead to duplication of large space files that can actually cause server problems. The proposal there is largely counter to the purpose of the policy. The statement that signatures like his aren't currently banned under the sig policy is actually well established as false, they always have been and it has been enforced as such in the past. The idea behind the sig policy is that it needs to be easily identifiable to readers who is making what comment. The rest is sorting what has been determined to be excessive, useless, and distracting to the actual page content. ''That'' is the purpose to all wiki sig policies and is an ideology represented by the extents of wikipedia's equivalent that goes so far as to limit code length for user convenience and templated sig limitations as a functionality issue. Basically, as it works out the policy will have an issue with the claimed intent of it, it'll actually cause more problems with wikilawyering to get users banned for not knowing ''enough'' wiki rules instead of making it easier on the users to insert creative and interesting content to the wiki. Better to just modify it to ''not'' limit content particularly and to develop a guideline page that's raised in profile on what's generally considered non-constructive in a signature and taking a soft warning approach to it that focuses on discussion of how it can be done in an non-obstructive manner. --<small>[[User:Karek#K|Karek]]<sup><font face="Monotype Corsiva">[[User:Karek/ProjDev/OmegaMap|maps?!]]</font></sup></small> 13:45, 17 September 2009 (BST)

hi, just one question: when adding a comment to a Suggestion page, what teplate should i use so I have my name and current date there? could not find it anywhere

The Only reason I reference Isc and Thad, is that there's been no one better recently. --I'm not the Ross UDWiki needs, I'm the Ross it deserves. 12:09, 8 September 2012 (BST)

I figured. This place has gotten really undramatic lately by the looks of things. Somebody throw a coup. Linkthewindow  Talk  07:34, 9 September 2012 (BST)
Your observation is dead on. This is a very different wiki to the one we 'grew up' in. I'll say that, the the dead will return, I bet... A ZOMBIE ANT 07:49, 9 September 2012 (BST)
Not sure about that, the drama peaked around the whole Grim coup saga and has been steadily decreasing since. I've returned/lurked occasionally since I left, and it's become - and stayed - a lot less dramatic (which is good.) On an unrelated note, love reading my comments from three years ago.

Welcome to Linkthewindow's talk page!

The Rules: Please use proper spelling and grammar when editing. I know a lot of you can't spell, but please no chatspeak, lolspeak, or leetspeak. Of course, being my page, I reserve the right to delete a comment, but I hope never to do that. I will only delete spam. Also remember to sign your posts-it saves a lot of time.
To Post: Ether click here or click the big + at the top of the page. Keeps it nice and ordered. Or, just post all new stuff at the bottom. If you post something in the wrong spot, then it will be moved without the post being modified.
Misc: Archives are here. I'll usually respond here, but if it's urgent I'll respond on your talk page as well. If you followed a redirect from another one of my pages, please state that page before commenting. Please use the chatbox for shorter messages (located to your right.) I can also be contacted by the email user function, although you'll get a faster response here.

If you are looking for a quick reply, I'm usually active or lurking between about 17:00 - 21:00 AEST (7:00 - 13:00 GMT, same day,) most of the day on weekends. During these times, I'll likely be found on #urbandeadwiki
