Horrah!

Congrats, baring a miracle of meatpuppeting, in 20 minutes you will be the proud ruler of this wiki! I mean there's the whole kevan thing, but your predecessors have shown nothing but disdain for his role and i'm sure you'll continue the tradition in style! I remember the day you became sysop *blinks back tears* they grow up so fast....--xoxo 10:11, 23 October 2008 (BST)

Congrats, Oh magnificant and benevolant overlord. May your reign as consul 'crat of the republic empire wiki be long and fruitful. Conndraka^{mod TAZM CFT} 19:20, 23 October 2008 (BST)

Yep. No meatpuppeting at all. Well done. Now remember when you attempt a coup, get Kevan on side first. --Rosslessness^{Want a Location Image?} 20:46, 23 October 2008 (BST)

Got it. ;) -- Cheese 10:45, 29 October 2008 (UTC)

Hey

As you are the most reasonable of the sysops I have encountered, I just want to know what edits I am getting my ban for (the ones on the A/VB that were telling bob the convo was over, or my involvement in the A/SD shitstorm.) Heres hoping this makes it through to you before some troll strolls in and tries to be witty. Ty in advance. Also, congrats on 'crat, your the right one for the job.--CyberRead240 02:26, 25 October 2008 (BST)

And you try to paint me as a brown-nose? --HAHAHA DISREGARD THAT, I SUCK COCKS 02:27, 25 October 2008 (BST)

I voted for him, and many, many times talked about my wish for him to get 'crat IRL to many of my Wiki going friends. He is the right person for the job, and I had been planning to tell him so and give him my congratulations just as I sat down to my computer last night. Well, there was a wiki shit storm, and I have not since had the chance to say so, so I thought I would add it in to this message. Sorry for that Cheese.--CyberRead240 02:32, 25 October 2008 (BST)

I don't know. =/ It's all so confusing. All the multiple cases and counter cases make my brain sore. =( Thanks for voting by the way. =)-- Cheese 22:24, 28 October 2008 (UTC)

Proof of bias

You bitch at me, and in the same breath again condem him for being the douchebag that you know he is, you condemn me for not standing up to him, when he had all you sysops backin him, and you call me a fuckhead for not fighting hard enough against him??? I backed out because YOU all had his back, he fucked with me in game, and in wiki, he accused my friends of being zerg accounts of mine, you even told him to back off because you knew he was full of it, but you DID NOTHING!!! Now you want to blame me saying that you can't man up and deal with his shit because i walked away??? What kind of a cop out is that??? You all fucked me from all ends, and then call me the bitch because I didn't give you the reason you needed to put a stop to his shit? The worst is that you lash out at me, then delete it and hope it fades away in your history...

Again i say its nice to see sysops are spineless cowards how allow assholes to bully the wiki when they are unwilling to do shit about it, but rant on those few who are victims... Thanks for doing your job, i hope Kevan is proud of you.--Happykook 05:54, 25 October 2008 (BST)

Hagnats

What're thinking? --  AHLGTG THE END IS NIGH! 21:28, 28 October 2008 (UTC)

I'm not sure. =/ I vouched for him initially but now I'm having second thoughts. He hasn't been on for about 2 weeks now and doesn't really seem that bothered about it. Plus there was this gem. =p You? -- Cheese 21:53, 28 October 2008 (UTC)

Looking at his last bid, he received a lot of vouches, but I'm noticing some of those vouchers that time around are now voting against. And on top of that, people who vouched initially seem to be changing their mind and there isn't very many strong yes' going for him (although he has been a long time sysop, so that counts). His policies were sloppy, but well intended I think. I agree though, his inactivity is a worry. Either he doesn't care enough to check, (or thinks because he was a sysop once before, he wouldn't have to bother) or there is some conflict IRL preventing him from wikiing. Either way, it doesn't look too good. --  AHLGTG THE END IS NIGH! 22:01, 28 October 2008 (UTC)

Yeah. I noticed that. It's mostly the folk who are changing their minds that are making me lean towards saying no. There's 18 (not counting mine) outright vouches, 10 outright against, 2 abstain and 4 that have changed from vouch to against. He also hasn't done much (besides the policies) since he came back. =/ -- Cheese 22:14, 28 October 2008 (UTC)

He does have a point about it, though. It wouldn't hurt to have the sysop team review the permabanned users and apply the current vandal banning rules to them and give them the due process of a sysop team vote. They are permabanned, so it is not like they are going anywhere, so the sysop team can take a little bit of time (say a month) to go over the cases and make a ruling. Most will be upheld (the one-shots and impersonators), but some might be able to get a second chance. I don't think that is too much to ask for, do you? --Akule ^{Maker of fine, hand-crafted UDWiki sass since 2006 -- Akule School's back in session™} 22:12, 28 October 2008 (UTC)

I know the last thing you guys want is regular users to spam this discussion you are having, but Hagnat has been inactive because he is finishing his written thesis. He's IRCing now if you want to jump in! D^ANCED^ANCER^EVOLUTION (TALK | CONTRIBS) 22:35, 28 October 2008 (UTC)

Tell him his thesis is unimportant and that he should probably poke his nose in and say hello. ;) --  AHLGTG THE END IS NIGH! 22:37, 28 October 2008 (UTC)

Yeah but his response to needing to be more active on this wiki was "meh". -- . . <== DDR Approved Editor 22:39, 28 October 2008 (UTC)

Should I point out the current list of sysops who are basically saying "meh" or have gone on multiple breaks for over two weeks? Basically, it boils down to this: Does Hagnat know what he is doing and does he improve the wiki as a sysop when he is here? If so, then if he fits into the current guidelines for sysop activity? --Akule ^{Maker of fine, hand-crafted UDWiki sass since 2006 -- Akule School's back in session™} 22:41, 28 October 2008 (UTC)

Hi. RL > UD. Right ?

Permabanned Users

So it seems that members of the team are open to reviewing previous vandal banning cases in order to bring them up to date with this policy. Does this work for you, or do you have any comments that you would like to make? --Akule ^{Maker of fine, hand-crafted UDWiki sass since 2006 -- Akule School's back in session™} 20:41, 2 November 2008 (UTC)

Two Things

Its regarding that arbitration case, need ya before it gets nasty. First, this: http://wiki.urbandead.com/index.php/Template:Ridleybankgroups Look at the history. Now, in some suburbs where Umbrella is active, one or two of our subgroups is active too so we place them under our name in the active group list as seen in Ridleybank (or Shearbank among others). We have been doing that for a long time now, long before any arb case. Since haliman uses the same acronym, UBCS, and even the same emblem he seems to want to separate that. I disagree. We are not going to adapt our subgroup list just because he is such a copying *******. If he wants to list his group so badly in Ridleybank then he will just have to place above or below ours. And then there will be two UBCS's listed in Ridleybank but he stays away from ours.

Second, at his group page it still says (under "Announcements") * Haliman has taken Airheadoh up on his offer and has taken over the UBCS. This is not hostile, as Haliman had the consent of Airheadoh. Sept. 27 The arb case proved that this is not true so I dont see any reason why it needs to stay.

I hope you want to help with this, I thank you for you time in advance.--Thadeous Oakley 09:11, 4 November 2008 (UTC)

If he wants to add his group to that page, he should do so without interfering with yours (or at the very least get his own emblem). On the second point, it's up to him what he puts on his page, but I will talk to him later on about it and ask that he changes that particular statement. -- Cheese 17:05, 4 November 2008 (UTC)

Cheese is vile???

I had no idea you felt that way... ;) --xoxo 13:06, 8 November 2008 (UTC)

Vandalism?

This guy has one of those annoying fake orange message bars on the top of his page. When someone clicks on it, they're logged out of the wiki, and this can be quite annoying when you're working on something in a different tab. Would I be justified in making a vandal report, since he doesn't seem to have been around since January? Is there a policy on malicious links anywhere? Thanks, --Pestolence^(talk) 18:52, 9 November 2008 (UTC)

There is a malicious links policy but, this isn't normally considered covered under it.--Karek^maps?! 19:08, 9 November 2008 (UTC)

I see. I've had a look at the policy pages and the only one that seems to prohibit malicious links is the one against malicious links in sigs. Could you direct me to the malicious links policy? or were you referring to the malicious signature policy? --Pestolence^(talk) 19:53, 9 November 2008 (UTC)

Wasn't Finis or somebody warned way back when cause he had one of those? Or am I not thinking right...--/~Rakuen~\^Talk I Still Love Grim 20:07, 9 November 2008 (UTC)

That would be it I think, anything else is considered vandalism under bad faith. However we generally only consider malicious sites or links that crash the wiki vandalism. I know this specific thing has come up a few times in Vandal Banning and has always been ruled not vandalism, although it's annoying it's not really harmful.--Karek^maps?! 20:15, 9 November 2008 (UTC)

Not vandalism? Er, I know for a fact that Special:Userlogout links in those orange bars have always been considered vandalism. --HAHAHA DISREGARD THAT, I SUCK COCKS 23:00, 9 November 2008 (UTC)

You sure that wasn't just in signatures, 'cause I know it's definitely against the rules to link there but I can't remember us ever ruling it vandalism in the orange bars, I'm pretty sure there are actually still some pages with them.--Karek^maps?! 23:38, 11 November 2008 (UTC)

You seemed positive about this on Developing Suggestions and its going to fail Peer reviewed as it stands by 1 vote. Any chance of you mucking in? --Rosslessness^{Want a Location Image?} 22:01, 9 November 2008 (UTC)

Images

Hey, Cheese, I know there isn't a policy and radda radda, but when I go through the unused images I usually don't delete the "alternate" images for malls just in case they are actually used when the mall is taken. I also leave images that are just a month old alone just in case. There are always plenty after the deadline anyway that need to go. It's always so tempting to make an image ark when I go through them! --– Nubis ^NWO 03:44, 11 November 2008 (UTC)

Dw he only deleted the pngs, theres jpgs of them all and Mall Images will save us all! --xoxo 03:55, 11 November 2008 (UTC)

Much ta. =p I shall bear that in mind. -- Cheese 18:18, 11 November 2008 (UTC)

All PNGs of mall images are duplicates, the used versions should be in jpg format and are already image arked somewhere, I think in a subpage of Hagnat's.--Karek^maps?! 23:29, 11 November 2008 (UTC)

Well we have a community page of it now, and it's happened before (with the jpg version) so yeah.--xoxo 00:06, 12 November 2008 (UTC)

Erm, JPEG should really only be used for photos. Unless the JPEGs are the most original files available and nobody has access to source materials used to create them, PNG should be the technically superior choice. ᚱᛁᚹᛖᚾᚨᚾᛏ 07:55, 12 November 2008 (UTC)

Does anyone actually use it?--xoxo 03:28, 20 November 2008 (UTC)

Not really, there's not much that would fit the category of things that should be marked as such unless we wanted to start patrolling for vandals by marking non-vandal edits.--Karek^maps?! 18:03, 20 November 2008 (UTC)

Regarding Badges

Hey, Cheese... I was wondering if I could update some of the ops on the special ops page with links to the badges... just wanted to check with you first to see if it's cool... Lorddragonfang 05:54, 22 November 2008 (UTC)

Soldier UDW

• 11/22/08: I have scraped the Z.E.M.A. Profile one for deletion because the name is too big to fit onto Graffiti in Urban Dead. I have made the ZEMA Profile one because the name is more smaller. Your supposed to delete the other one, not this one! -- 01:41, 23 November 2008 (UTC)

P.S. The plan was to create an article for Advertizement and User Profile uses so I created the ZEMA Profile one. The other one you have merged was auctully scrapped for deletion. And once I made the ZEMA Profile page, it then gets moved to Zombie Emergency Management Agency/Profile and I could still use the origonal name for it to all work. That was the plan! And you deleted the Z.E.M.A. Profile one but you duplicated it to make the Zombie Emergency Management Agency/Profile and sent the ZEMA Profile one for deletion which is the opposite. If this dosen't make sence then just delete both the Zombie Emergency Management Agency/Profile and the ZEMA Profile and then I will go back to Square One.

Drama and Propaganda

Hello. I've recently noticed that a certain user (http://wiki.urbandead.com/index.php/Special:Contributions/Captain_Rickety) continues to write lies and negative propaganda against my group, and we do not like that.

I hadn't noticed that. Also noted the similar flaws on pages,

leaving a space at the beginning of lines. It happens a couple of times on Firetwigs page. 

That and the fact the edit histories of the socks fill in the gaps of each other? Still. Might be coincidence. --Rosslessness^{Want a Location Image?} 21:38, 2 December 2008 (UTC)

Users?

Hi there. I was wondering, do the users listed on User:Light_Master really exist? Or I should place those pages in the Speedy Deletion Queue? --Janus ^talk 23:11, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

You can check yourself. Click their link then check if User contributions is a button on the left and has any edits in it. If it does, it's real. If not, it's fake.--xoxo 23:19, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

Already checked. They do exist. He's created accounts for them all so that means even more to keep an eye on. We can't ban them without him committing vandalism since I'm pretty sure we don't have any rules against alt accounts. -- Cheese 23:23, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

On that, it really shouldn't matter considering he hasn't made an edit since October. =) -- Cheese 23:31, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

I see. I checked the User Contribution page as J3D said, but only his main account and other three (User:Super_Fast, User:Vince_Light, User:Ryan_Striker) "made edits". --Janus ^talk 23:33, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

Yeah. Like I said, he hasn't made any edits for about 2 months and I've made a list on my sandpit to keep track of them all just in case. So hopefully nothing to worry about. =) Thanks for pointing it out though. -- Cheese 23:35, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

Okay. Thanks! :) --Janus ^talk 23:39, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

Cheezels is there a way to check if a user exists other than the edit check? If not, shouldn't the one's that haven't edited be deleted?--xoxo 00:35, 10 December 2008 (UTC)

User contributions is the fastest way, there's Special:Listusers, the user toolbox should also always have Email, Block, and User Contributions links. If they aren't there it's not a real user.--Karek^maps?! 01:29, 10 December 2008 (UTC)
