| | == RE: Multiple edits == |
| | Hello there. :D Yeah, I learned about the talk page problem ages back; been over a year now since I last did it ahah. Thanks for the reminder though ^_^ |
|
| |
|
| == story titles ==
| | About the editing, that's kind of just how I edit - mobile editing is a pain when doing entire articles, especially big ones, given loading time and subsequent lag and the like - so it's just faster to edit the sections separately. Plus, the managing of edits is easily fixed by just going on to a page's edit history and comparing the page before and after my edits. |

| Hi! Please note that it is not necessary to pipe switch story titles to their dab terms (unless of course there is more than one article with that title). In fact, it is preferred that you do not change them at all. If you choose to write citations with the dab term, that is ok, but making edits just for switching to dab terms is highly discouraged. Thanks! [[User:Shambala108|Shambala108]] [[User talk:Shambala108|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 13:31, May 6, 2014 (UTC)

| == Re: stretched images ==
| | Addendum: Just saw your expansion. I've always followed the neatness it creates, similar to how we do likewise for things like ((Father's Day (TV story)|)) to create ''Father's Day'' rather than just leaving ((Father's Day)) in the box. Plus, is there are real harm in the minimal extra data when big articles are already massive? |
|
| |
|
| It's not just you. It's either a wiki-wide thing that will have to be fixed on our end, or someone on our wiki is working on something and images are temporarily wacky. It will probably be fixed soon, but if you want you can leave a report at [[Board:The Drax Cave]].

| As for your second issue, I assume you're talking about the contents box? That's not an issue I'm having. What browser do you use? Wiki doesn't support IE anymore, so it just doesn't work in many ways (when I use it for wikis, it crashes). Also, Safari was having problems a little while back, as you can read at [[Thread:154468]]. Since this is specific to you, if you're not using one of the problem browsers, you should definitely bring this one up at the Drax Cave.
| | Yeah, I'm weird in that (while most people play mobile games, reads news or whatever when waiting in line, on transport or have a spare five minutes) I come on here to edit on my outside down time :D. Might as well do something semi-productive I reckon.

| And that is pretty much the limit of my technical know-how. Reporting your problem on the Drax Cave should get the attention of the more tech-minded admins. [[User:Shambala108|Shambala108]] [[User talk:Shambala108|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 22:33, May 12, 2014 (UTC)

| | Hey there, I hope your Halloween was decent. As you might know, we've not had forums for over two years at this point. A few of the regular editors have been having a discussion on this topic at [[Forum talk:Index]] and we'd like the input of other prominent editors if you have the inclination. Cheers.

| Thanks for reporting in with technical issues. We're working fast to resolve them. You should already find that the stretched image thing is not a problem anymore, though you may need to clear your cache to see the resolution:

| If you could provide more details on your table of contents issue, it'd be helpful.
| |
| {{user:CzechOut/Sig}}{{User:CzechOut/TimeFormat}} 00:49: Tue 13 May 2014</span>
| |
| :Sorry, I don't know what you mean by the phrase "content box". Nor do I really understand what you mean by "growing bars". Could you please take a screenshot of the issue? Thanks :) {{user:CzechOut/Sig}}{{User:CzechOut/TimeFormat}} 13:32: Tue 13 May 2014</span>
| |
| ::Ahhhhh, now that you've given that text mockup I see what you mean by "contents box". Thanks for the clarification. In the code, the phrase "content box" is ambiguous. You're talking about a "table of contents", or TOC, but now that it's clear what you're talking about, choose your own noun :)
| |
| | |
| ::What's still not clear at this point is what sounds like some kind of animation on unhiding the TOC. That's '''not''' at all happening in any browser to which I have access. If you'd upload your screenshot and put it on my user talk page, that'd be most helpful.
| |
| | |
| ::Also, if I could get your browser and operating system version numbers, it might go a long way to helping to diagnose. Thanks :) {{user:CzechOut/Sig}}{{User:CzechOut/TimeFormat}} 17:17: Tue 13 May 2014</span>
| |
| :::Thanks for the greater clarification of your situation. I've tried in about 10 browsers under iOS 7.1.1, and none of them present the results you describe. The TOC pops up pretty as a picture in every single one of them.
| |
| | |
| :::I'm left to conclude that the problem would be solved by simply upgrading. We at Wikia are in a tricky place with iOS 6.
| |
| | |
| :::As a member of Wikia staff, I point you toward [[help:supported browsers]], which says that we ''do'' support iOS 6, but "we recommend accepting all prompted browser updates to ensure you have the best browsing experience".
| |
| | |
| :::As Tardis' chief technical admin, I have to advise that I don't really have an easy way to actually support iOS 6 on this site, since my devices are at 7. And from the sound of things, all the IOS devices owned by local admin are also at 7.
| |
| | |
| :::Nevertheless, I have submitted a bug report to Wikia's engineering department, to see if they can offer any more advice. If they do, I'll let you know as soon as I do. {{user:CzechOut/Sig}}{{User:CzechOut/TimeFormat}} 04:36: Wed 14 May 2014</span>
| |
| | |
| ::::Hey, just checking back in with a question from our Engineering Team. Are you still having this TOC issue? Rhey've tried in Safari on iOS 6.1.3 and they aren't able to reproduce the bug. Is your device maybe running something ''earlier'' than iOS 6.1.3? It'd probably be helpful for you now to go to Settings > General > About and find your exact version number. Thanks :) {{user:CzechOut/Sig}}{{User:CzechOut/TimeFormat}} 19:37: Thu 22 May 2014</span>

| == Gaffabek and more ==
| |
| | |
| Do you have a source for the "Gaffabek" spelling? If I'm going to correct such an old page, I'd prefer to have a source behind me.
| |
| | |
| On another note, I changed the category on your user page from <nowiki>[[Category:User pages]]</nowiki> to <nowiki>[[Category:Users]]</nowiki>. The first category is for wiki policies regarding user pages.
| |
| | |
| Lastly, I appreciate the vandalism patrolling as you did on CzechOut's talk page, but it's better if you just notify an admin. Only admins have a rollback feature that can undo several edits by the same person in one easy move. That makes cleaning up vandalism a bit easier than having to search through multiple edits and undos for the most recent correct edit.

| :Forgot to get back to you on this. We actually had a discussion a while back, at [[Thread:127706]], that concerns closed-captioning. It doesn't look like Netflix captions count at all, and CC is placed so low on the list of preferred sources that I'd rather hold off on renaming the article unless/until we can get some better confirmation. If I get a chance, I'll dig out my DVD, but there may be some higher-preferred source that comes to light.

| Hey, a while back you created the page [[Spam (email)]], but you didn't include any sources. Right now, the page is just an unsourced definition.

| :It's not necessarily that you've been taught incorrectly. I could be wrong, but I think it's the British way of using quotation marks, and if you're not British, then you're not used to this way.

| == Editing ==
| |
| | |
| You are probably not aware that it is my habit when working on a short story page to go back and forth among the story page and the articles I am creating. It makes my task more difficult when I have to deal with edit conflicts when someone is dogging my steps and editing immediately after me. Thanks.
