| == Hidden cats ==
| | ---- |
| | |
| Got a reply back from [[user:Dopp|Dopp]] today, which reads:
| |
| :Thanks for contacting us about this issue. We've phased out that preference due to lack of use across Wikia, and anyone who still has it is grandfathered in until they select "Restore all default settings" in their preferences. We don't currently have a way of overriding this phase-out.
| |
| | |
| :Hidden Categories still work, however, and you can see them in [[:Category:Hidden categories]] and in your pages' source code (although i see that you're embedding them in templates, too, so that further complicates things). Apologies for the complications this raises. I hope the existing tools provide enough of a workaround for your team members to support the wiki.
| |
| I've responded with a feature request to just make it a standard admin power to see hidden categories. This is, I'm sure, technically possible, but I wouldn't hold out hope. If that change is technically easy — which it ''might'' be — then someone on the dev team might say, "Yeah, that's worth 1 minute of my time." If it's ''at all'' time-consuming, I wouldn't expect much action, because the move has a terrible cost/benefit ratio for Wikia. It's only a few big wikis like us, MemAlpha, and Wookieepedia that even care about hidden cats, despite the fact that they are in wide use on Wikipedia. So we're effectively asking for something ''for us'', rather than a change that most of Wikia will actually use.
| |
| | |
| Basically, in your position, your only hope of access to hidden cats is to go to [[:category:Hidden categories|Hidden categories]] or [[:category:Maintenance|Maintenance]], where most of the hidden categories are attached. {{user:CzechOut/Sig}} <span style="{{User:CzechOut/TimeFormat}}">18:31: Fri 02 Mar 2012 </span>

| == Rory's main page image ==
| |
| | |
| [[File:Rory_-_TDTW&TW.jpg|thumb]]This is what you said last night when I edited the main image to the Rory page:
| |
| | |
| "SO what if its new - it's better to have a older, better quality quality picture than an badly cropped, poor quality newer one."
| |
| | |
| Now, to be honest I don't appreciate this as it quite rude really. The image is taken from a BBC One HD screencap - the quality is good, it is not poor. It's not badly cropped either - I just cropped Amy's hair out as it's not relevant to the Rory page is it?
| |
| | |
| There's no need to be rude like that. There really isn't.
| |
| | |
| I'm just doing this because I find it contradictory as Rory's current page image [[File:RoryWilliams1.jpg|thumb]]should really be cropped as half of it doesn't contain Rory.
| |
| | |
| Portriat images on this wiki help the page flow much better which is what I was trying to do. The fact its a newer image too, which I've been told on here before is the best thing to have makes the page more upto date. That's a key thing surely?
| |
| | |
| The current landscape image scrunches the page up and doesn't make it flow well, so surely one that is much better for that, irrespective of whether it's super high quality is surely better? Beside, when the page is at it is, the image doesn't appear high quality until you click to see it full-sized, so surely my image, which is the same quality all the time is much more suitable?
| |
| | |
| I just hope you reconsider this as I didn't appreciate your rude reason last night. Atleast I've had constructive criticism before in the past, not just plain rudeness, so I'll leave it at that.

| |
| Thanks for the great suggestion! {{{voice actor}}} is now a part of {{tl|Infobox Individuals}}. I've also thrown in {{{other actor}}} for those cases of performances of characters in limited narrative circumstances, like youth/age/alternate universe/because Frazer Hines got sick/because William Hartnell inconveniently died.

| == Cardiff, Wales ==
| |
| | |
| Personally, I'm not sure either way. Though putting "[Earth country], Earth" I would absolutely ''never'' do. I completely agree [[Cardiff]], [[Wales]], [[United Kingdom|UK]], [[Earth]] isn't right.
| |
| | |
| I think I put it up because of the way it flows more than it being necessary. What would you say about smaller towns like [[Foxgrove]] or [[Dry Springs]] with that pattern? -- [[User:Tybort|Tybort]] ([[User talk:Tybort|talk page]]) 20:45, March 11, 2012 (UTC)
| |
| : Actually, I wasn't thinking of that at all. I was fine with [City] for major cities and [City], [Country/State] for smaller and fictitious places. I considered the [City] style was because most people know what you mean by London, Liverpool, Beijing and so forth and you ''wouldn't'' for much smaller villages and [City], [Country/State] would be okay for them. I was just double checking you thought that was okay. -- [[User:Tybort|Tybort]] ([[User talk:Tybort|talk page]]) 20:54, March 11, 2012 (UTC)

| == Requested variables ==
| |
| *'''Home era/Era active/anything like it'''. No. Just no. Not going into that minefield again. It's out for good. As you'll remember, in the thread [[Forum:Home Era]] '''you yourself''' de-activated the line after a lengthy discussion that was well attended by a lot of people. As far as I'm concerned, you determined the consensus on the matter and implemented change based on that consensus. If you want it back, now, you'll have to reverse yourself and get it approved through the forums. And it does rather look like both I and Tangerineduel were strongly opposed to it in the original discussion, so I wouldn't expect a reversal from either of us, unless you come up with arguments not originally put forward. I've got a bot run planned to eliminate all that data, based on the original consensus, so if you're going to start a new discussion, please let me know in the next 24 hours, or the point will be moot anyway.
| |
| *'''Affiliation''' is a part of {{tl|Infobox Individual}}, as has been written up in the documentation.
| |
| | |
| So that's two for three on new variable requests. That's pretty good. Keep 'em comin'! (But please use [[Forum:New infoboxes and you]] from now on, so that it's all centralised.) {{user:CzechOut/Sig}} <span style="{{User:CzechOut/TimeFormat}}">21:44: Sun 11 Mar 2012 </span>

| ==Eighth Doctor infobox pic==
| |
| Hey, sorry to jump on it so quickly, but I've deleted the pic you just uploaded for the [[Eighth Doctor]]. That pic, or one very like it, was what was on the page for a long time, and then deliberately deleted, per the discussion at [[talk:Eighth Doctor#Infobox pic]]. The one in the elevator was arrived at after quite a bit of discussion and it's actually pretty great. Is it left-looking? No, but it's not ''right''-looking, and the body angles are all slanted left, because he's standing left, but looking up.
| |
| | |
| A part of the deal in changing out these doc pics is to emphasize the need for, as much as is allowed by the body of work of the actor, extreme closeups in infoboxes.
| |
| | |
| The elevator shot ticks the boxes of a great infobox pic, and, moreover, it was agreed through discussion. What we really need is a more characteristic Tenth Doctor pic that's tight, left looking and preferably smiling rather than the dour I'm-about-to-die thing that's currently going on. I could look for it, but I need to get back to infoboxes. {{user:CzechOut/Sig}} <span style="{{User:CzechOut/TimeFormat}}">15:35: Wed 14 Mar 2012 </span>

| |
| [[File:Zygons_Attack_of_the_Graske.jpg|thumb|336px|The image is in it's "I don't want to update" mode, so I posted it on your page.]]
| |
| Yeah, sorry, lemme explain. Both Wikipedia and Tardis wiki suggested that the Zygons appeared int this episode, so I searched through the episode, looked at all the scenes with pods, and found that the Zygon was either [http://images4.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20120328221246/tardis/images/archive/7/7d/20120328222507%21Zygons_Attack_of_the_Graske.jpg this] or [[:File:Monster_Attack_of_the_Graske.jpg|this, possibly some horrendous re-imagining]], and after studying the clip, I realized that it was obviously the first. I have increased the pictures quality and found a better frame, so I hope you can now see it. compare [[:File:Zygons Attack of the Graske.jpg]] to [[:File:Mo zy01.jpg]]. You can defiantly see the yellow-head-sucker-coral-things on his head.... [[User:OttselSpy25|OS25]] ([[User Talk:OttselSpy25|talk to me, baby.]]) 22:37, March 28, 2012 (UTC)

| == MA GOR ==
| |
| Yeah, I was kinda wondering what happened to the MA thing. Do me a favour and just upload the raw pictures you've got to [[w:c:tardistest]]. That is, completely bypass [[Special:AchievementsCustomize]] and upload them normally. I'll then take the raw pics and figure out what to do about the rest. Thanks for your work on this so far!
| |
| | |
| As for ''Confidential'', yes, '''absolutely go for it'''. By the way, the new conflicts one may seem silly at first since there are so few pages in the category, but I'm going to be doing a major revamp on the infobox that will give people something to play with for a bit. Lots of little fiddly changes to make, so I figured people should be rewarded. Kinda the same logic as the classic series editing track. And that's worked well; people seemed to have rallied in the cause to make sure the novelisation gets put into the infobox, and to sorta condense the infobox language.
| |
| | |
| There'll probably be a few more achievement tracks to support new infoboxes over the coming days. I've got about 10 planned, which means that realistically 5 will materialise. {{user:CzechOut/Sig}} <span style="{{User:CzechOut/TimeFormat}}">15:56: Fri 30 Mar 2012 </span>

| ==Infoboxes==
| |
| Sorry about that! I must have missed that forum discussion. I've been taking a break from the Wiki for a while. I'm removing them now anyway. I assume that the same rule applies to "(regenerates)" in a Doctor's final story? Oh, and thanks for the compliment!

| == GOR: CON ==
| |
| Your pics all look great, and I really like the motif of using CON narrators! I've gone ahead and started the track here at tardis. All you need do is add your pics to the mix. Note that the track is called "CON episodes edit track", as I'm getting in a quick name change to the category before the track is enabled. Within the next few minutes, all CON episodes will be under the simplified name [[:Category:CON episodes]].
| |
| | |
| I've gone ahead and saved new names for each award at [[Special:AchievementsCustomize]]. Here's a little trick about naming that I didn't understand at first. When choosing names, we need to remember that the name of the award appears in the context of a sentence which goes "Blah blah blah the "''<award name>''" badge blah blah blah". Therefore, to make the sentence work best, we don't want to start with ''the'' or end with ''award'', cause that would mean we'd get a sentence that went "Blah blah blah the "The ''<award name>'' Award" badge blah blah". So I've tinkered with the names to make them fit the sentence.
| |
| | |
| Anyway, this one looks done to me. Feel free to add your pics and enable the track at any time. Thanks for the great track! {{user:CzechOut/Sig}} <span style="{{User:CzechOut/TimeFormat}}">13:52: Tue 03 Apr 2012 </span>

| Look, I know you apparently don't like [[:File:Big_Ron_Hole_Frame.jpg]], But I think it works very well at thumbnail size, despite your suggestion that you "can't tell what it is..." I also DID put it through colour correction and sharpening the file... Certainly you can see that in the file history section... But, like I said, It's easy to make the image out, and it dosen't look THAT bad up close, just a bit graphic-y... But as a thumbnail it looks fine. I truly don't see what's wrong with it...

| Why do you keep deleting my images for being more than 250px? Isn't the rule that it can't be LESS than 250px? I know for one that [[:File:Varga.jpg]] was at least 400px on the original upload. So in other words, there was no reason to delete it for size. [[User:OttselSpy25|OS25]] ([[User Talk:OttselSpy25|talk to me, baby.]]) 15:45, April 9, 2012 (UTC)
| |
| | |
| : Ops! I meant to link to [[:File:Varga2.jpg]]... Yeah, I have been trying to clean up my images before uploading them, and I'm going to try and get a better copy of [[Attack of the Cybermen]] out. I tried very hard to update and clean up [[:File:Peri main less blurry.jog]], and I thought it looked pretty good, especially compared to pictures I uploaded next to it. I had even tried to make the pixilated-bit more clear. But besides these two images I mostly understand the problems you have. 18:00, April 9, 2012 (UTC)
| |
| ::You did actually delete [[:File:Varga2.jpg]] erroneously. It was, as far as I could see, completely within [[T:ICC]]. I've restored it. It certainly wasn't <250px, but rather above 400px. Since there are no telesnaps available from the 60s, the only place we can get an in-universe image is ''City of Daleks'', so OS25's shot is just about the best we're gonna get. I'd already deleted a previous attempt of his for poor aspect ratio, and the newest Varga2.jpg was in full compliance with my requests. {{user:CzechOut/Sig}} <span style="{{User:CzechOut/TimeFormat}}">20:11: Mon 09 Apr 2012 </span>

| == Beware GOR over-saturation ==
| |
| Didn't realise you'd snuck in an SJA television stories GOR track. Let's give a rest to the SJS/K9-themed story tracks, shall we? We've got SJ audio stories, K9 TV stories, and SJA TV stories, meaning that we've created quite a number of double-point-value editing opportunities. The little loopholes at [[Romana I]] and [[Romana II]] — being in both the companion and individual Time Lord edit tracks — are bad enough, but now you've got easily 10 pages that are going to offer double points. We can leave it on for a bit, but if it becomes clear that people are making a lot of trivial edits to ''[[Invasion of the Bane]]'' or ''[[The Gift (TV story)|The Gift]]'', we'll need to yank one of the two. {{user:CzechOut/Sig}} <span style="{{User:CzechOut/TimeFormat}}">18:53: Wed 18 Apr 2012 </span>
| |
| :Good God, man! No need to apologise about being bold. I'm jazzed that you slipped another editing track in there. And there's a particular need to pull ''any'' of these out of rotation — yet. In fact, I'm going to re-enable SJS audio, because very few people have actually done a lot of work with those, judging by the medal count. And looking at the pages, they can certainly use some work.
| |
| | |
| Double-point pages are just something to ''consider'' when making new tracks. Overlap isn't in itself bad. It's just that it creates a kind of "exploit" for the game. If people are abusing it, then, sure, you have to get rid of it. But if people are adding valuable material to the article, because they're attracted by the double-point values, then the overlap is actually working for us. It's just something you have to casually monitor.
| |
| | |
| If it does come to having o disable ''something'', though, you're right in that it should be the K9 track. What's happened there is that my enabling of a track for all classic stories has overlapped your broader K9 track. If it were "K9 TV series", that'd be fine. But because it's "K9 television stories", then there's a good 20 pages for which you get "double points". Again, though, until it really looks like it's becoming a problem with several competitors, I don't mind awarding double points as people bring the new infobox into full use.
| |
| | |
| And, for the record, you don't need my "permission" or anything like that to do an edit track. I'm certainly happy to be here to bounce ideas off, but if you get inspired, don't let me stop ya! {{user:CzechOut/Sig}} <span style="{{User:CzechOut/TimeFormat}}">20:33: Wed 18 Apr 2012 </span>

| == Image size ==
| |
| | |
| My apologies. There was a typo in [[T:IUP]] that I didn't catch because I had transferred most of my editing time to [[T:ICC]]. The rough upper limit of our policy is 100 '''kb'''. The pre-written deletion reason says a file is just too damn big once it exceeds 1 '''mb''' (though in practice I start deleting at 200 kb and over, unless there's a damn good reason not to). The maximum MediaWiki (i.e. software) limit is 10 '''mb''', though I have seen some things slightly bigger than that. Dunno if that means the system message is a lie or what.
| |
| | |
| In easy-to-read list form:
| |
| | |
| *100kb — our basic limit (some exceptions allowed)
| |
| *200kb - ''strongly'' consider deletion or, if you have time, compression
| |
| *around 1mb — the point at which you really have to delete
| |
| *10mb — the official maximum size

| == Shend ==
| |
| | |
| Shend's [http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0791511/ IMDB page] says his real name is Chris Harz, as well as his date and place of birth. The link is right on his article. If you think it's worth mentioning his real name (personally, I don't see why not), I'd appreciate it if you put my contribution back.

| |
| | |
| :Okay, that's understandable. However, Shend was a member of a band called ''[[Wikipedia:The Very Things|The Very Things]]'', and they, too, list his birth name as Chris Harz. It's not a big deal, so I won't pester you about it. If you don't think this information is credible and/or it's unimportant, that's that.

| ==Chat==
| |
| I asked for something similar when the feature was introduced. They didn't see the value of it then. And in truth, given the inactivity of our chat room, I can see their point. If they give you a different response, of course I'll be interested to know.
| |
| | |
| As I've thought about it since, I'm not sure I ''really'' want something that's auto-recording chat. Text chat is so easily misunderstood, especially by third parties who are viewing it later. Our [[tardis:chat policy|chat policy]] has given us adequate protection so far.
| |
| | |
| Has there been a recent incident in chat that has suddenly concerned you? {{user:CzechOut/Sig}} <span style="{{User:CzechOut/TimeFormat}}">23:07: Mon 07 May 2012 </span>
| |
| :Don't forget that when there is a problem, you can cut and paste the contents of the chat window. The window remembers ''everything'' for as long as you've had the window open. So as long as the window hasn't aborted at a crucial moment, you can make records of incidents, such as [[User:CzechOut/Chat paste]]. It's crude, but it does at least work as a way to preserve a conversation.
| |

| |
| | |
| Promotional or not, the image was a PNG, which, correct me if I'm wrong, I believe aren't looked on favorably when it comes to main images. Or is it just screenshots that shouldn't be PNG? And for that matter, aren't promotional images supposed to be restricted to situations when a screenshot is unavailable?

| == Images ==
| |
| okay, aren't you going a bit ''over'' with the hole "I need to delete images" thing? Most of the images that you deleted were ''fine'', and did not need to be deleted. I find it easier to believe it with my older pics, but some of the newer ones you deleted for "<250px" I know for a fact were longer than 250px. Images like [[:File:Prelude Transit.jpg]] weren't really ''that'' bad, and that image in particular would have worked well on the [[Prelude Transit]] page. [[:File:Sixth Doctor.jpg]]'s only issue was tHat it wasn't a good info box image, and could have been used elsewhere. On the wiki out main priority should ''not'' be to delete all unused images, especially those that can be used in the future.

| :[[:File:Backtime.jpg]] was not Colourized. The comic was printed in a mix of colour and black and white. The first page of every issue would be put in colour, the rest would be printed from colour. Thus [[:File:Backtime.jpg]] was not colorised.

| | [http://tardis.wikia.com/d/p/2895919597658048401] Rose's frustration of the TARDIS Translation circuit |
| Not following you around today, honest! This guy [[User:JarodMighty|JarodMighty]] posted right in the middle of the conversation I was having with OS25. His comments, being non sequitor, obviously made no sense. So I had to go to his talk page and figure out what he was talkin about. And there I stumbled across your attempts to manage his user images.
| |
|
| |
|
| I just wanted to point out that you keep saying people are only allowed "3 images on their user pages". This is not actually what the policy says. It says people are allowed three user images, and then goes on to specifically define what a user image is.
| | [http://tardis.wikia.com/d/p/2897826161650304990] David Tennant's accent |
|
| |
|
| As far as I can see, he doesn't actually have ''any'' user images on his page. All of them could potentially be used in articles. There is no limit to the number of images one can have on one's user page. The limit is on those images defined as "user images". Roughly speaking, this means images that are so personal they could ''only'' plausibly be used on that particular user's page.

|
| Basically, the rule exists to stop people turning their user pages into their vacation albums or their fanon repository. It's not at all trying to limit their use of imagery that is, or could be, used in other namespaces. {{user:CzechOut/Sig}} <span style="{{User:CzechOut/TimeFormat}}">19:42: Wed 09 May 2012 </span>
