Eley Way Police Department

Hello! I'm a bit surprised about your large edit of Eley Way Police Department. I can imagine what you're trying to bring across, but I wonder if you attempted to convice the main editor of that page, User:lane grate. A lot of what you deleted I'd consider valuable content and it might have been appropriate to move it elsewhere instead of just deleting. What you left of the page appears quite impersonal to me, compared with what was there before. - Stephen Krantz 17:46, 6 June 2009 (BST)

There was a large chunk of POV, followed by a larger chunk of news copy-pasted from various suburbs. The copy-paste stuff certainly isn't useful, but if you, the author or anybody else wishes to keep the POV part I'm not against putting it back in or finding another home for it (preferably the latter). Generally though, locations are intended by be reasonably NPOV and not used to by groups to stake claims (even though many are), hence my edit. I'll drop a note by his page to see what he thinks (and maybe convince him to use the neglected danger report). -- User:The Rooster RoosterDragon User talk:The Rooster 18:02, 6 June 2009 (BST)
Thank you, that's certainly a productive idea - Stephen Krantz 21:12, 6 June 2009 (BST)

User:lane grate here, after the shock of what was done, I realize a revamp of Eley Way Police Department's wiki is probably overdue. I have since I began UD built the site from scratch and assistance and advice of others. Any further advice can be sent me on my User page or through my email.

The newsbriefs were outdated, admittedly, but were included to inform of conditions in the SW-1 district. Vital communication is crucial to avoiding a suburb collapse into ruin. Current conditions in Tollytown, Freyer Bank, Milltown; are conditions that could have been contained to RED status if communication and co-opporation were employed by the Pro-Survivor community. The recent retaking of Griggs Heights is a prime example of a community re-establishing order through communication.

The Police Departments, regardless of who occupies the command,(MPD, Military, or group) are 1) a prime target for Pro-Zombie players, to deny ammo and flak jackets etc and demoralize a population. 2) a priority for Pro-Survivors to gather ammo and join as a community by planning strategy and informing one another of known dangers. I will find a NPOV way to inform and prepare the citizens and my fellow officers to the hazards ahead. Detective Lane grate MPD SW-1 18:59, 2 July 2009 (BST)

A little advice

Hey there, you seem like a fairly helpful sysop so maybe you can help me out with a quick question. What's the policy on drastically changing the "History" section of a location? The location in question is Vincent Square Police Department and man is it ugly. Spelling and grammar errors abound in each sentence and the thing drones on like a wall of text. What kind of license can I take in "restructuring" the info there? --GANG Giles Sednik CAPD 17:17, 8 June 2009 (BST)

I'm not a sysop, and probably not fairly helpful either :P. Anyway, locations pages are community based so you have free reign to make any edits that will improve the article. The history bit shouldn't even be signed... So yeah, feel free to correct the errors, or rewrite or remove the whole thing as you see fit. -- User:The Rooster RoosterDragon User talk:The Rooster 17:21, 8 June 2009 (BST)
Thanks, you ARE helpful. And you're not a sysop? Weird, I see your stuff all over the place. --GANG Giles Sednik CAPD 17:23, 8 June 2009 (BST)
He probably should be a janitor-op, unless he's totally opposed to the idea (hint, hint) -- boxy talk • teh rulz 13:59 21 June 2009 (BST)
Him running for ops is one of our favorite things to talk about in IRC.--Mr. Angel, Help needed? 21:21, 21 June 2009 (BST)
STOP IT! ALL OF YOU! IT WAS MEANT TO BE A SURPRISE FOR AFTER BOB'S BID! DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION (TALK | CONTRIBS) 00:09, 22 June 2009 (BST)
Oooooo! Fancy fancy! You've got my "vote". =) --GANG Giles Sednik CAPD 15:48, 22 June 2009 (BST)

I didn't feel like starting a new thread here, but I wanted to alert you to the fact that I've included a question in my vouch vote for your sysop bid. Please check it out and register an answer. Thanks =) --GANG Giles Sednik CAPD 18:36, 8 July 2009 (BST)

Hey

Thanks for the info, haven't gotten around to it yet.--Mr. Angel, Help needed? 01:57, 9 June 2009 (BST)

Protection

Any parts of your new DS you want to request protection on? --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 21:46, 9 June 2009 (BST)

Not really, I don't think there's any risk to any of it. -- User:The Rooster RoosterDragon User talk:The Rooster 21:50, 9 June 2009 (BST)

Wiki Cookies...?

You're cited at my 'talk:'

Kittithaj made some comments on my talk page that invoke your worshipfulness. Take a look? --Lariat2301 03:15, 11 June 2009 (BST)

Rippon Building

You removed the buildingstatus template for what reason?

I am in the process of creating the page for that structure. It was barely up there 5 minutes. So just FYI, please don't take it back down.-- Belgianrofliron 21:00, 18 June 2009 (BST)

I took it down because that template isn't intended to be called directly onto pages. You need to create a danger report and call that. I removed it as trying to track down bad calls is impossible after the fact. -- User:The Rooster RoosterDragon User talk:The Rooster 21:05, 18 June 2009 (BST)

Emergency

The last in a long line of wiki coders, I need your assistance, Beowulf! My lands have been cursed! DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION (TALK | CONTRIBS) 12:59, 20 June 2009 (BST)

No moar!
Some guy removed the </noinclude> tag, which broke quite a few templates. Linkthewindow  Talk  13:08, 20 June 2009 (BST)

Sig

How does this one strike you? Better?--User:Zombie Lord | T | BALLS! | 23:06 22 June 2009

Additional info for your convenience: First I made a new template page, User:Zombie Lord/sig2. I removed all calls regarding Timestamps on that page. Second I put 
{{SUBST:User:Zombie Lord/sig2}} <tt>{{subst:LOCALTIME}} {{subst:LOCALDAY}}
{{subst:LOCALMONTHNAME}} {{subst:LOCALYEAR}}</tt>
in the Nickname space on my preferences page. Now I only sign with 3 tildes. --User:Zombie Lord | T | BALLS! | 00:07 23 June 2009
An innovative solution, and it looks nice. -- User:The Rooster RoosterDragon User talk:The Rooster 15:23, 23 June 2009 (BST)

Sidebar

My, that's a sexy side navigation bar you have there, Rooster. --  AHLGTG THE END IS NIGH! 01:57, 23 June 2009 (BST)

It'd be better if the last box led to #urbandeadwiki instead of the ancient #udwiki ;) DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION (TALK | CONTRIBS) 02:49, 23 June 2009 (BST)
^^^^^ --Cyberbob 14:03, 23 June 2009 (BST)
It no longer leads to #udwiki, happy now? -- User:The Rooster RoosterDragon User talk:The Rooster 15:23, 23 June 2009 (BST)
I promote you using one or the other, or both, not neither, Rooster. Bah! DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION (TALK | CONTRIBS) 04:30, 27 June 2009 (BST)

Annus Horribilis

Hey Rooster. Thanks for the heads up.

Could you please explain how I can replace the black boxes with Wiki things or whatever you recommend.

Thanks x --  ▧  : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : 21:56, 29 June 2009 (BST)

Okay, all fixed now, hopefully. With a lickle help from BobB. --  ▧  : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : 23:28, 29 June 2009 (BST)

Quickly

I would like to point you back into this discussion here. It seems I have some unfinished revelations to discuss with those who are interested. DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION (TALK | CONTRIBS) 12:34, 1 July 2009 (BST)

I would now like to point you in the direction of Known_Bugs#Game_News_Bug. I don't know any other user who would be qualified to assist Kevan appropriately. DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION (TALK | CONTRIBS) 14:53, 3 July 2009 (BST)

Well then you don't know me well :P I'm using IE and I don't know much about web-coding or javascript or whatever, so you're barking up the wrong tree entirely. Midianian might be better, he writes a couple of scripts and seems to know about this stuff. -- User:The Rooster RoosterDragon User talk:The Rooster 15:49, 3 July 2009 (BST)
Awwww. Well Moonshine helped me out some. Maybe next time, Micronoobsoft. DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION (TALK | CONTRIBS) 15:58, 3 July 2009 (BST)

Thank you very much for your help. Perhaps I should brush up on my wiki-fu
