J3D's latest
If J3D is going to be warned for impersonating a sysop, how long is the template going to stay on his page? --DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION-- 07:23, 28 August 2009 (BST)
- That's a good point. Your reward shall be having the honour of being the one to remove it. (might be prudent to ask him to do so first before wading in) Cyberbob Talk 08:32, 28 August 2009 (BST)
- Nice try, why should I be the one to do it? I don't have a problem with having him on there. As the voter of vandalism and the giver of the warning, perhaps it should be your reward. --DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION-- 09:08, 28 August 2009 (BST)
- Fine, I'll do it - though you should be willing to uphold the decisions of the team even if you disagree with them. Cyberbob Talk 09:17, 28 August 2009 (BST)

Orphaned Recruitment pages
I noticed that a lot of the orphaned pages are abandoned recruitment adverts. Now in fairness it doesn't look like they will be reused. What do you think? Put them up for deletions, move them into their groups namespace, or just leave a message on the groups talk page, with a link to the old recruitment add included? --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 13:23, 21 September 2009 (BST)
- Hm, I think I remember taking a look at these myself and not being able to work up the effort to do anything about them at the time. Personally I would say have them deleted, but it's probably a better idea for them to be moved into subpages with maybe a short note left on the group's talk page alerting them to their ad's new location. If you set the request up on A/MR I'll be happy to do it. Cyberbob Talk 13:35, 21 September 2009 (BST)
- Cool, Ill do some tonight. --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 15:23, 21 September 2009 (BST)
- Ive created a complete list of all the orphans (Making them not orpahns, but anyway.) Do you think a template would be best, that way I can roll it out on all the talk pages? --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 16:01, 21 September 2009 (BST)
- Feel free to take Necrotech_Assassins/Recruitment off the list now. It's mine, and I put it up for speedy.--Yonnua Koponen Talk ! Contribs 16:18, 21 September 2009 (BST)
- A template sounds like the easiest way to do it, yeah. Cyberbob Talk 16:36, 21 September 2009 (BST)
- Hang on, it looks like they're all subpages already. No need for A/MR I guess; I'll give you a hand with the posting of the template. Cyberbob Talk 16:40, 21 September 2009 (BST)
- Nubis did the latter (of ross' post) quite a bit, I think it's a pretty good way to go, at leased in terms of cleaning up orphaned pages. --DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION-- 16:42, 21 September 2009 (BST)

Orphaned Page
|
The following page(s) were orphaned, meaning they weren't linked from any other page on UDWiki. For house-keeping's sake, we are adding the link onto the relevant talk page. If you don't want the pages anymore just post them on the Deletions Page. You aren't required to do anything, but we'd appreciate if it you kept the link on any one of your pages.
Please note that the link provided below will not remove the page from Orphaned Pages, so you'll still need to manually make a link for us. Thank you.

Hows that? --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 15:43, 22 September 2009 (BST)
- Looking good! Cyberbob Talk 15:50, 22 September 2009 (BST)
Hmm, I was just looking at a/vb, and noticed some rather odd things. Firstly, there was your moving of Read's comment to the talk, which seemed to undo itself, then redo itself again. But you already seem to know about that, so that isn't the issue. i'm more concerned with the fact that you responded to Akule on the DCC case, and the response isn't appearing on the page. In fact, I came along and responded myself, because I saw no response. Odd. Any idea why?--Yonnua Koponen Talk ! Contribs 22:31, 25 September 2009 (BST)
- I have absolutely no idea. My best guess would be something to do with when I opened the tabs in which I made my edits. Cyberbob Talk 22:34, 25 September 2009 (BST)
- Very odd indeed. If you want your comment in the conversation, then I moved his original message to the talk.--Yonnua Koponen Talk ! Contribs 22:38, 25 September 2009 (BST)
- Nah, yours covers the point just fine on its own. Cyberbob Talk 23:07, 25 September 2009 (BST)
What the fuck?
You pressing protect by mistake now? Thats a pretty complex trick you did there. --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 21:29, 13 October 2009 (BST)
- I think I was going for the watch button, but my brain...slowed...down. I had no idea I'd even done it until I went back to recentchanges after posting on the talk page. Cyberbob Talk 21:36, 13 October 2009 (BST)

Hey, A/VB#Archives. I'm not as familiar with A/VB archive templates. Which one should be gone here? --DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION-- 10:03, 20 October 2009 (BST)

Protections
I know I've been away for a while, but editing a protected page is still misconduct? Right? :p -- . . <== DDR Approved Editor 18:07, 15 September 2009 (BST)
- Oh, whoops - I didn't spot that you wanted feedback on the main page and I didn't spot that the talk page was protected. It's weird - normally there's a warning message that pops up when you go to edit a protected page but it didn't happen this time. I'll move the comment to the main page. Cyberbob Talk 18:10, 15 September 2009 (BST)
- My wonderful unspoiled history, and you sullied it! My wonderful system for keeping the uninvited off the main page doesn't seem to be going well either :p I remember the fun of throwing out a thousand misconduct and A/VB cases, considering I could have two successful ones in as many minutes, you'd best be remembering that next time someone bad mouths me :p -- . . <== DDR Approved Editor 18:15, 15 September 2009 (BST)
- If you want the history wiped just submit it for Speedy Deletion and recreate it. Nobody would be so dumb as to call you out on recreating a deleted page with this conversation on the record. Cyberbob Talk 18:17, 15 September 2009 (BST)

Praise
If you wish to congratulate me or say thanks for anything I've done, please do so here.
Good job
Having different headers for praise and criticism and such is all nice and dandy, but when you got so much shit on your talk page things get cluttered real fast. Praise for finally archiving things. May I humbly suggest that you do that more often from now on? Also, I made a comment on your classification list. Also, first.--Thadeous Oakley 20:53, 26 August 2009 (BST)

- I think Grim's coup will be forgotten once this ends (new template opportunity for me). Simply because we may be dealing with a complete breach and abuse of the sysop system. The Nubis vigilante actions that were always borderline misconduct in particular.--SirArgo Talk 01:00, 11 September 2009 (BST)
- I don't think so- Grim's Coup was iconic of himself as the ruler of the wiki, and he earned his powers before he stomped everyone with them. Whatever Nubis had done would have been by cheating the system. Vandar already had an infiltrated account as a sysop before anyway. In fact, methinks "Nubis" just got bored of never achieving crat (so he could actually do the next coup) an just gave up ;D --DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION-- 01:04, 11 September 2009 (BST)
- Hmm. Very true. I guess not knowing exactly what things were like before all of this, I really can't make a clear judgment. I'm just flabbergasted that the account control lasted this long.--SirArgo Talk 01:17, 11 September 2009 (BST)
- I hope that's just a really bad joke because Nubis was not after a coup. Cyberbob Talk 01:52, 11 September 2009 (BST)
- It sounds more like Nubis was making a statement on the whole "Trusted User" discussion that Grim created, which was months before the coup. --Akule Maker of fine, hand-crafted UDWiki sass since 2006 -- Akule School's back in session™ 01:55, 11 September 2009 (BST)
Nubis was tired of the petty wiki lawyers and the lack of common sense that runs things. Also, Bob, the "case" I was referring to wasn't actually made into a case (but I couldn't be arsed to edit my post), but it was one of those things that J3D bitched about and probably would have made a case about if the other things hadn't come up. I'm actually surprised that it wasn't one with the bitching that went on about it.-- #99 DCC 23:48, 12 October 2009 (BST)
- Well I pretty much knew about why Nubis left... but thanks for clarifying the other point. Cyberbob Talk 02:29, 13 October 2009 (BST)
Oh, Crat was never a serious consideration. Nubis would have promoted people like Wan and Iscariot just to see what would happen. And Nubis told both of them that he would do it, too. -- #99 DCC 23:50, 12 October 2009 (BST)

Another quetion
When it comes to requesting a page move,... how easy is it for moderators to do them in bulk? I have a quite a few pages that really need to be moved from one category, to another. At that, if theres a way for moderators to do so in bulk, I'd prefer it to be done that way, instead of one by one the way I could do it. How's that sort of thing work? -Poodle of doom 03:14, 28 September 2009 (BST)
- Moving pages "in bulk" is no different to deleting a whole bunch "in bulk" - you do have to do them one at a time. It's still far easier (and better - you keep the page histories) to move them with the sysop function than by copypasting them across though. Cyberbob Talk 03:18, 28 September 2009 (BST)
- However, if Poodle means, as he's said, that he wants a page moved from one category to another, it's merely a matter of editing each page to omit one category to facilitate another. If this is the job at hand, I'd be happy to do all the moves for you, Poodle. --DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION-- 03:20, 28 September 2009 (BST)
- It is as DDR understands it. At that, to clarify,.... You'd still have to go back and edit each page individually? If that's the case,... I'd be interested in just doing it myself. I couldn't justify pawning off my burden to someone else. -Poodle of doom 03:29, 28 September 2009 (BST)
- If you say so. It's not skin off my back though, so if you change your mind, feel free to contact me. And yes, the only way we can move pages to categories is to just edit each individual page, adding the new category and getting rid of the old. It's not so hard once you get used to it. Good luck. --DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION-- 03:33, 28 September 2009 (BST)
- I've got a pretty effective system down... it's just that I was hoping there was an easier way. Thank you kindly. -Poodle of doom 14:06, 28 September 2009 (BST)

Yonnua
Alright, I'm tired of people saying everything I do is for "cred". As demonstrated by when I was put up, I'd have had several more vouches if not for that Policy thing. In fact, I'd have had probably mostly vouches (from what was there). So, why on Earth would I be doing more stuff for "cred"? It's pretty blatant, therefore, that I was actually trying to be helpful. But then again, why should we try to resolve conflicts with other members of the community? We should just ostracise them instead!
- Seriously though, I'm not really getting pissed, although I sound it, I'm just tired of everyone claiming I only help them for Credit. --Yonnua Koponen Talk ! Contribs 11:34, 29 October 2009 (UTC)

- Nothing sticking the head in the sand and doing a couple hundred of edits can't fix. --DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION-- 12:38, 29 October 2009 (UTC)
- I'm just amazed that it took a lengthy personal engagement with Iscariot for Yonnua to see how much of a petulant child he is. Especially given Yonnua's attempts to pass himself off as a Wise Mediator; you'd think he would have some idea of the personalities he's dealing with. Is he stupid, or did he really truly believe that he could extract a moment of sanguinity from Iscariot? Cyberbob Talk 12:41, 29 October 2009 (UTC)
