| == I need you or another admins help, my other account was blocked wrongfully. ==
| |
|
| |
| Hello, I was wondering if you could help me with an issue I am having. Admin "Evil Tim" blocked me for no reason thinking I was some guy named "Burt", which I am not, my name is Danny. I tryed to contact him about it on my blocked account "Glock17gen4", but it wouldnt let me so I'm forced to use this account I made. I tryed to contact him and I have no received a reply, I think he is ignoring the msg or something. I was wondering if you could help and unblock my other account, thanks.

| == Some help ==
| |
|
| |
| Hello! You appear to have banned my main account "QueenSasha24" for the reason of it being a "spambot name". Well I assure you I am not a spambot, the name was given to me from a roleplaying community. I would really appreciate if you guys could unban my account, as I had some contributions to make to our wonderful site. :)

| ==Permission to restore a deleted article==
| |
|
| |
| I recently got the video game ''Alliance of Valiant Arms'' on Steam, and I noticed that we used to have an article for it but it was deleted. Since you were the one that deleted it, I wanted to ask if it was alright if I had a go at making an article for the game. As you can see from my past works (such as ''[[Project Reality]]'' and my overhaul of ''[[Battlefield 2]]''), I will give thorough descriptions of the weapons and good-quality screenshots of their use in-game. I hope to hear back from you on this, and wish you well. [[User:Orca1 9904|Orca1 9904]] 02:25, 23 April 2012 (CDT)

|
| |
| Hey man. I am working on creating some templates for the site. They are all pending admin approval of course but I need to recreate a template which you previously deleted. ([[Template:!]]). This template basically allows the use of the pipe character ("<nowiki>|</nowiki>") when passing arguements to a template. You can look [http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Template#A_parameter_value_containing_a_pipe_character HERE] on the MediaWiki site for more information. Just wanted to let you know that I am recreating this template for a purpose. Let me know if you have any questions. :-) --[[User:Zackmann08|Zackmann08]] 16:59, 24 April 2012 (CDT)

| Make sure you blank the "reason" text box when deleting spam pages, I have a suspicion they hope you don't since they almost always put links where they'd show up.

| == RE: The Collector ==
| |
|
| |
| Sorry for the late reply, I was having issues trying to leave a message. Anyways, I thought cropping most of the image would have helped clear the image of unnessecary space (and save server space). But if it's the rules, it's the rules, and I'll upload the entire image. And I really can't get any better resolution for screencaps. I got them from print-screening off of Youtube, and I don't have access to any fancy capture-devices or high-quality media players (nor do I have the money to). And the shotgun is a Mossberg 500, as when the Collector grabs the shotgun from the police cruiser, the safety is briefly visible. - [[User:1morey]] May 6, 2012 9:10 AM (EST)

| :Gotcha. Perhaps you as an admin can talk to [[User_talk:Pandolfini|Pandolfini]]. I had just spent a bunch of time redoing the [[MP40]] page and one of the things I did was to put the Episodes in the note column. He then comes along and moves them all back and says I'm stupid for doing it in the first place (possibly his translator messing up but still...). I don't really care if someone creates a new table and puts the Episodes in the title column but it's kind of annoying to have this guy moving them back there after they were specifically moved for a reason. Not trying to get all butt hurt just cause this guy called me stupid but some of his edits have been really bugging me (and others) lately. Let me know you're thoughts. Unless you say otherwise I will just leave this alone. Not really interested in getting in a pissing contest over something this stupid. --[[User:Zackmann08|Zackmann08]] 18:18, 12 May 2012 (CDT)

| ::Thanks. I got another question for ya... I'm working on the [[AEK rifle series]], as part of making sure that all the Assault Rifle pages have been converted to the proper table format. Should this page be sub divided into the 3 different models? I didn't want to change it but it seems unnecessary since the only difference is the caliber... Thoughts? --[[User:Zackmann08|Zackmann08]] 19:58, 12 May 2012 (CDT)
| |
| O I'm totally with you on the [[Remington 870]] page. But that has a lot more entries and a much bigger difference between models. But as you wish! --[[User:Zackmann08|Zackmann08]] 21:04, 12 May 2012 (CDT)

| Hey man. Quick question... I noticed that for the TV show ''[[Chuck]]'' you made the page titled ''[[Chuck (disambiguation)]]'' instead. Shouldn't it just be [[Chuck]]? This would match the format used on other shows that have been split up... [[24]], [[CSI: NY]], [[CSI: Miami]], [[Hawaii Five-0 (2010)]], etc. I would just move it but seeing as an admin created the page, I don't want to overstep. :-) --[[User:Zackmann08|Zackmann08]] 11:41, 18 May 2012 (CDT)

|
| |
| ==Chinese names==
| |
| Yeah, sure, I wasn't favoring one way or the either. Usually when I create a page for an Asian actor, I make the page under the IMDb name and then a redirect for the other way. (I did point out that Chow Yun-Fat/Yun-Fat Chow exception when I posted on the forum regarding the same topic.) As for going by how it's in the actual credits, that's always a little shaky. There are always some weird deviations. If someone is credited enough times, I'll just create a redirect, like [[Noel G.]] or [[Nick Corri]]. --[[User:Funkychinaman|Funkychinaman]] 02:40, 20 May 2012 (CDT)
