Make sure that you use the proper format here. The date column should not be "introduced" but "Produced" with the two dates. The date it was introduced and the date it was discontinued (or "present"). Also, remember that this site is not a gun encyclopedia. We are only adding guns to these pages that already have a page. The SIG-Sauer P238 and the SIG MG 710-3 should be removed. You should also check the existing links because many of them are not taking you to the correct location. Finally the Variants should link to their respective location on each page. Thanks for continuing to help with these pages. --[[User:Zackmann08|Zackmann08]] 19:32, 16 January 2012 (CST) | Make sure that you use the proper format here.

LOVE your SIG page! You took my mediocre, half baked idea and made it simply AWESOME! :-) I'm thinking of doing this for the 5-10 or so guns that have a large number of variants. The only other one that I can think of off the top of my head is the [[Beretta 92FS]]. I'd love to work on this with you if you feel like working together on this project.

Hey man. Thanks for your help with [[CSI: Miami]]. Can I make one request? With the screenshots that you upload, can you add the episode tag to the end of the caption? e.g. (S03E02). Check out [[CSI: Miami - Season 7]] to see what I mean. It just helps to identify where each image came from. Thanks buddy! --[[User:Zackmann08|Zackmann08]] 22:14, 14 April 2012 (CDT) | |||

::Hey man. I have a request. Can you refrain from adding the template to anymore pages for a few days? I realized that I am still working on it and if and when I make changes to the basic structure of the template, each instance of it may need to be changed. For example, I just realized that the "Character" and "Actor" parameters should be lowercase to match the other parameters. This means that we now need to change each instance of the template. I REALLY appreciate you help implementing this and really hope you will continue to help, but maybe hold off for a week or so? Just give me a chance to finish. :-) Thanks man! --[[User:Zackmann08|Zackmann08]] 09:50, 30 April 2012 (CDT) | |||

== Screenshots == | |||
I noticed that you mentioned that you save your screenshots as JPG's in VLC player. I've tried doing this and found that the shots turn out to be of inferior quality (there's a lot of blockiness to the shots). What I usually do is save them as PNG's first and then use Fast Stone Image Viewer to do a batch conversion to JPEG. This will also allow you to batch rename your files as well. You can delete the PNG's after you finish the conversion. --[[User:Ben41|Ben41]] 19:27, 4 May 2012 (CDT) | |||

== Links == | |||
In the future, when you are linking to a gun such as the [[Para-Ordnance P-10]], please do not use the <nowiki>[[M1911_pistol_series#Para-Ordnance_P-10|Para-Ordnance P10]]</nowiki> format. Instead, create the <nowiki>[[Para-Ordnance P10]]</nowiki> page and then redirect that page to <nowiki>[[M1911_pistol_series#Para-Ordnance_P-10]]</nowiki>. The issue is that we are currently splitting up the 1911 page and instead of just changing the redirects, we have to change every page that links because so many people use the bad format. I only mention it to you because I am currently working on the [[Para-Ordnance]] 1911s and saw that you used this format when creating the [[Para-Ordnance]] page.

Hey bro. Whats the status of Season 1-4 of [[CSI: Miami]]? I know you had discussed doing them and did a bunch of work. Just wanted to see what the status is and how I can be helpful. I took care of 5-10 and did all the actor pages but my thought for doing the gun pages (the cross referencing) was to do it all at once. So basically just open up 10 tabs, one for each season, and do each gun one at a time. I.E. Go to the [[Beretta 92FS]] page and add all the occurrences for all 10 seasons at once, instead of one season at a time. I don't want to do that until all 10 seasons are done though. Any way, let me know whats what and if you would like some help finishing up any of the seasons, just gimme a holler! --[[User:Zackmann08|Zackmann08]] 13:57, 18 June 2012 (CDT) | |||

Before you upload any more screenshots, please no PNG's!
Although it may be an acceptable format to upload, PNG's make the page load very slowly, so please upload as JPG's. --Ben41 01:16, 6 December 2010 (UTC)
- A previously banned member had set up another account and was vandalizing pages. If you look under "Recent Changes," you'll see. I was trying to contain the damage. I'm pretty sure I didn't delete anything other than what the vandal had written. --Funkychinaman 23:22, 2 September 2011 (CDT)
