If you want to leave a comment, please put it under the appropriate heading using a Lv. 3 header (===Header===). You can also add a new section with the + key, and I'll move it myself, but I'd really prefer you use the first way. Whether thw conversation stays here or moves back and forth between two talk pages is completely up to you. BIC Stuff BIC: Update Status This is for keeping track of major edits to the BIC, both by others and myself. Please do NOT edit this section. I've taken it upon myself to create a BIC for every suburb in Malton (67 of them didn't seem to have one when I started). Top two rows done! Only 56 more to go!...--Red Hawk One 09:05, 5 July 2009 (BST) 53 left, quite a few of these mid-city suburbs are rather lacking in details.--Red Hawk One 05:27, 6 July 2009 (BST) Working on Stats reports on the side, I've got all fire stations A-H done. On a side note, I think I've got this signature working.--~ Red Hawk One Talk | space for lease 20:27, 6 July 2009 (BST) A danger report has been filed for every fire station in Malton.--~ Red Hawk One Talk | space for lease 06:54, 7 July 2009 (BST) Woo-hoo, halfway! (50 suburbs down). Chudleyton was a real mess, but other than that, this seems to be getting easier. A quick check at the danger report categories shows that most Hospitals and Police departments have reports, so it should be mostly smooth sailing from here.--~ Red Hawk One Talk | space for lease 08:33, 7 July 2009 (BST) The color red is slowly creeping across the city... Is it the return of a mega-horde like The Dead? No! it's the BIC- Coming to a suburb near you. Top four rows are done, with most danger reports out of the way things are moving along pretty quickly, although some suburbs are still pretty bare (such as the (in)famous Dunell Hills).--~ Red Hawk One Talk | space for lease 00:29, 8 July 2009 (BST) Ending the day with 70 complete BICs.--~ Red Hawk One Talk | space for lease 06:55, 8 July 2009 (BST) It's done, a Building Information Center has been filed fo each suburb. it was hard work (I still can't beleive I finished in a mere 4.5 days!), but its there to stay. A big shoutout to all the contributers: The Status Reporters, for coming up with the idea first and doing the NE and NW. Red Hawk One (myself) for picking up the project and updating 50+ suburbs and countless reports. Rorybob, for linking each suburb to the BIC, updating southern Malton, and making a BIC template. Bldg. Info Center This user supports the BIC The countless other users who have created and maintained BIC pages and Danger reports. Without the contributions of these people, it would have never gotten done (or at least would have taken the forcasted two weeks). That out of the way, there's still a bit of work to be done- uniforming, catigorizing, aesthetics- it will be even more thankless from this point, but someone's gotta do it. ~ Red Hawk One Talk | space for lease 08:16, 9 July 2009 (BST) Minor aesthetic improvements, including the below image from Sunil.~ Red Hawk One Talk | space for lease 22:58, 9 July 2009 (BST) Overhauled the BIC page (Now with Navbars!), began uniforming the suburb listings (top three rows). ~ Red Hawk One Talk | space for lease 03:58, 10 July 2009 (BST) Moved all of the fire station reports from Category:Fire Stations to the more appropriate Category:Fire Station Danger Levels.--~ Red Hawk One Talk | space for lease 08:31, 12 July 2009 (BST) Rorybob and The Rooster are creating status maps for the buildings listed in the BIC. They have completed: A hospital map A police department map Great job Rorybob and The Rooster!--~ Red Hawk One Talk | space for lease 20:52, 21 July 2009 (BST) Uniforming the SIB pages (4/10) by removing creator sigs and adding factory listings. Rorybob is currently writing up listings for all the factories. Quite a daring task!--~ Red Hawk One Talk | space for lease 03:53, 23 July 2009 (BST) The Rooster strikes! as we speak his amazing army of bots is filling in reports for all reportless buildings.--~ Red Hawk One Talk | space for lease 20:14, 26 July 2009 (BST) Finished uniforming the SIBs. Found out the Lockettside Building Information Center is really comprehensive.--~ Red Hawk One Talk | space for lease 00:08, 27 July 2009 (BST) BIC Progress Map This map courtesey of the now inactive group The Status Reporters. ~ Red Hawk One Talk | space for lease 08:18, 6 July 2009 (BST) Finished 2009-7-9 at 7:16AM BST Dakerstown Jensentown Quarlesbank West Boundwood East Boundwood Lamport Hills Chancelwood Earletown Rhodenbank Dulston Roywood Judgewood Gatcombeton Shuttlebank Yagoton Millen Hills Raines Hills Pashenton Rolt Heights Pescodside Peddlesden Village Chudleyton Darvall Heights Eastonwood Brooke Hills Shearbank Huntley Heights Santlerville Gibsonton Dunningwood Dunell Hills West Becktown East Becktown Richmond Hills Ketchelbank Roachtown Randallbank Heytown Spracklingbank Paynterton Owsleybank Molebank Lukinswood Havercroft Barrville Ridleybank Pimbank Peppardville Pitneybank Starlingtown Grigg Heights Reganbank Lerwill Heights Shore Hills Galbraith Hills Stanbury Village Roftwood Edgecombe Pegton Dentonside Crooketon Mornington North Blythville Brooksville Mockridge Heights Shackleville Tollyton Crowbank Vinetown Houldenbank Nixbank Wykewood South Blythville Greentown Tapton Kempsterbank Wray Heights Gulsonside Osmondville Penny Heights Foulkes Village Ruddlebank Lockettside Dartside Kinch Heights West Grayside East Grayside Scarletwood Pennville Fryerbank New Arkham Old Arkham Spicer Hills Williamsville Buttonville Wyke Hills Hollomstown Danversbank Whittenside Miltown Suburb Influence Level Colors No BIC This suburb currently does not have a BIC.

I tried an idea like that once. The Status Reporters. --Haliman - Talk 04:21, 6 July 2009 (BST) Fortunately for me, I already had 33 suburbs knocked out out of the gate, and plenty of reports to use as templates. It's going to be time consuming, but I think I could have this done solo in 2-4 weeks. Sooner if a few people would would be willing to help with writing up danger reports. (stupid fire departments :/)--Red Hawk One 04:26, 6 July 2009 (BST) P.S. For anyone who cares about the method to this madness, I'm working from the top-right to the bottom-left, making sure that all Hospitals, Fire Stations, Police Departments, and NTs have reports, then creating a Building Information Center for the suburb with all of the above plus phone masts, malls, and landmarks (mansions, cathedrals, stadiums, etc).--Red Hawk One 04:34, 6 July 2009 (BST) I got the NE corner. Well, TSR did. --Haliman - Talk 05:17, 6 July 2009 (BST) I noticed. You guys really saved me some time there. Thanks! Also, would you mind if I "borrowed" your map to chart my progress? --Red Hawk One 05:27, 6 July 2009 (BST) Go ahead, mate. TSR is dead. My main focus is on the UBCS now. YOU SHOULD SO TOTALLY JOIN. --Haliman - Talk 07:04, 6 July 2009 (BST) Thanks for the clearance. And as tempting as your offer is, I'm afraid Santlerville is a long commute from Rhodenbank.--Red Hawk One 07:07, 6 July 2009 (BST) You sure? We could use a dedicated player like yourself. --Haliman - Talk 07:10, 6 July 2009 (BST) Will ya at least check out our chatbox? Lol. The guys would love to meet you. Just say Hal invited you. I'm currently banned for 10 minutes for spamming. LOL. --Haliman - Talk 06:56, 9 July 2009 (BST) Is it possible to be any more awkward? --Cyberbob 07:16, 9 July 2009 (BST) We could easily make it more awkward.--Mr. Angel, Help needed? 07:20, 9 July 2009 (BST) I am gonna go out on a limb, and say your desperate. Hali desperate for members, and Bob desperate for trolling. SA is just being a me-too.--Thadeous Oakley 00:01, 10 July 2009 (BST) Okay, this is just getting bizzare.~ Red Hawk One Talk | space for lease 01:18, 10 July 2009 (BST) Welcome to the wiki!--Thadeous Oakley 11:47, 10 July 2009 (BST) You're desperate for human contact. Any human contact. --Cyberbob 12:16, 10 July 2009 (BST) Great job creating all those suburb information centers and building danger reports. I had to change your navbar to fit the other resource pages, and i created a map linking to all the burb center pages, so it would be easier to find them. Still, if you hadnt made the initial push, this would never had happen. Good job --People's Commissar Hagnat [talk] [wcdz] 13:13, 10 July 2009 (BST) A FREE COOKIE hagnat has given red hawk a cookie for creating suburb information centers for every suburb in malton Ideally I'm hoping to model the BIC page on Necrowatch, but until then your navbar modification looks quite a bit easier to use. Thanks for that map thing as well, I can't beleive I didn't think of that! Mmmm, cookie... ~ Red Hawk One Talk | space for lease 20:39, 10 July 2009 (BST) I just noticed that several suburb information centers have been signed. While i (and the community) appreciate the work and effort of creating such pages, since they are supposed to belong to the community they shouldnt be signed by the user who created them. Could you please remove them ? --People's Commissar Hagnat [talk] [wcdz] 02:13, 23 July 2009 (BST) No problem No problem, I just need to make the Building Information pages once i've fnished with teh suburb pages. D: That'll be a pain, but it'll make the wiki a better place i'm sure. Congrats on thinking it up, by the way. :) --RahrahCome join the #party!21:51, 7 July 2009 (BST) Righty; i've linked up all the suburbs (fingers crossed i've got them all, and dealth with the No-NT suburbs correctly), so now we have to make the TRP report templates, put them in the BIC's and we're done? :D --RahrahCome join the #party!22:16, 7 July 2009 (BST) Ah yes, must remember to do that. Also, thanks for editing Buttonville's BIC to include Buckley, I forgot. That's an interesting map,(the one on your talk page) is it recently updated? And thanks about the template :D ----RahrahCome join the #party!19:37, 8 July 2009 (BST) That's good! I'm currently working on a Malton-wide TRP/Mall/Suburb status map, located here. It'd be great if you could help. Adding in the TRPs, copy and paste one that was done before, like :<div style="position: absolute; left: 25px; top: 17px"> {|{{User:DangerReport/Dovey Boulevard Fire Station|template=StatusMap Formatter}}| |}</div> and replace the "left" with the x co-ordinate, timesd by 8, then add one. Do the same for "top" but for the y co-ordinate. Then replace the name of the TRP where the name is present. --RahrahCome join the #party!08:44, 13 July 2009 (BST) Yeah; The one at the moment is a PD one. It's not a problem, it was a simple thing; and Rooster has offered to make one using his bot. :) The probelm is, when I use {{StatusMap PD}} on a page, it breaks. Strange. The template breaks, that is. I suppose what would be a good thing to do now is to try and spread the word, get some big groups using the BIC, like the DEM and MOB, things like that. :) --RahrahCome join the #party!}20:09, 21 July 2009 (BST) Stuff Good work with the suburb Building Information Center what-not. --  AHLGTG THE END IS NIGH! 04:43, 10 July 2009 (BST) Agree. Just wondering, did you do all of this by hands? Or, more appropriately, with a bot? -- Kittithaj 16:22, 11 July 2009 (BST) By hand (I wouldn't even know how to find or program a bot anyways). I had about 5-8 tabs running at all times, and kept copying and pasting the neccisary info. It was mostly smooth sailing (turning out a report/listing per minute), but there were quite few times where I'd have to go in and write up something completely by hand. I'm not completely sure a bot could have patched those holes. Besides, I actually kind of enjoyed filing all those reports.~ Red Hawk One Talk | space for lease 20:42, 11 July 2009 (BST) Wow. You are really diligent. If you need help with bot-assisted automated updating, try asking The Rooster. -- Kittithaj 15:26, 13 July 2009 (BST) Danger Reports Man, I think you need to reorg some of those headers, it's all a bit haphazard concerning the BIC and reports and whatnot. Anyway, no problem with the danger reports. I created every last possible one. I also churned out Status Maps for every building type. You can see them on each subcategory of Category:Building Danger Levels if you're interested. Can I ask you take a look through Category:Danger Reports and its subcategories for any errors, particularly with regards to the BIC category which I also messed with. Ongoing discussion regarding all this is spread over many user talk pages, but there is a little centralised stuff on my page if you want to mention anything important there. Thanks for the help. --  RoosterDragon  01:50, 30 July 2009 (BST) I didn't see anything wrong with the categories (granted, I olny scanned over them). I'm curious, is thee any way to organize the nameless buildings (junkyards, factories, etc.) by a different method, such as by suburb? Alphabetically is a little hard to find the particular building you're looking for. As for the goofy headers, I'm planning on remodelling the page, ideally modelling it off of Necrowatch.--~ Red Hawk One Talk | space for lease 06:00, 30 July 2009 (BST) Aye the sort key's could be changed, but to what? If we sorted them by suburb all the "S" suburbs would show up under one section, etc etc. Could always come up with a code system using the 52 letters (upper and lower case). A=suburb a and b, B=Suburb c and d etc. Alternativly I could key based on co-ords and pad the zeros so we get ten sections, each one representing a "column" of Malton... I'm just throwing ideas about here, I agree that sorting them all under one heading is a bit useless. Any other thoughts? On a semi-related note, I had to muck about with you sig as the pipes were interfering in the danger report templates, causing some of the sig and the timestamp to be cut off. I even threw in some tag fixes so it's a bit nicer to edit, hope you don't mind. --  RoosterDragon  22:09, 30 July 2009 (BST) BIC: Complaints If you've seen a mistake or undesirable change by me, please post it jere and I'll look into it. Not sure why you felt the need to overwrite my Pennville Building Information Center besides to spread your name everywhere, given that it is virtually identical. But it looks fine to me, so whatever. Bodicus 11:24, 21 July 2009 (EST) Your center was a category, while all the other ones were just pages. Sorry about switching them out, I'm just trying to make the BIC as uniform as possible.--~ Red Hawk One Talk | space for lease 18:54, 21 July 2009 (BST) Hi this Officer VarVarna from StäV we are maintaining the Crang telephone mast......you changed the status in the wrong way crang is since X-months without any problems. Please undo your changes... It's already back up to date.--~ Red Hawk One Talk | space for lease 22:53, 13 July 2009 (BST) Other Stuff Misc. Hi, not sure if this is the right place for it, but I googled the name of a PK'er (Zomburrito) and read your comment about his activities in Rhodenbank. I just saw him killing my contact in Shuffery Cinema (Earletown). Thought you might be interested. Thanks!--Jovanc 19:48, 29 July 2009 (BST) Project NecroWatch Hello!
