The name in itself is a little discouraging. This won't completely kill the server or murder it in some other resource-intensive way, will it? Will we have the power to moderate its usage?--Dan 21:37, 30 April 2007 (CDT)
 * Well, it's been enabled. Enjoy.--Dan 19:52, 1 May 2007 (CDT)
 * :( It doesn't work, I thought the ":R" in the Meta page meant add a title here but it actually took 1,000 and made it 1000, this means we can't do the count unless there's a way to make the PAGESINNS go into cats. P.S how do you get cplimit to work in the query.php, every time I try it with a cat, it comes out blank e.g here.Rocky http://media.strategywiki.org/images/thumb/7/78/Rally-X_Rock.png/25px-Rally-X_Rock.png (Talk - Contributions) 10:14, 2 May 2007 (CDT)
 * They are working on a function to count articles in a category. It is not checked in yet but it should be soon... (I think). -- Prod (Talk) 07:34, 2 May 2007 (CDT)
 * Err.. Prod who's they, the MW team or us?Rocky http://media.strategywiki.org/images/thumb/7/78/Rally-X_Rock.png/25px-Rally-X_Rock.png (Talk - Contributions) 10:14, 2 May 2007 (CDT)

What do you want me to do with this, do you want me to reformat it because it's a jpg and I don't think that you can add transparency to those?--Rocky http://media.strategywiki.org/images/thumb/7/78/Rally-X_Rock.png/25px-Rally-X_Rock.png (Talk - Contributions) 13:46, 16 May 2007 (CDT)
 * I'll do it, I have a program that can format it as .png and add transparency. --Ryan SchmidtTalk - Contribs 19:04, 16 May 2007 (CDT)
 * Done, I'll start on the rest of the pages in the transparency category now. --Ryan SchmidtTalk - Contribs 21:49, 16 May 2007 (CDT)

Can I tweak the block to stop account creation, it's only for 1 day and I want to check something out.--Rocky http://media.strategywiki.org/images/thumb/7/78/Rally-X_Rock.png/25px-Rally-X_Rock.png (Talk - Contributions) 10:18, 17 May 2007 (CDT)
 * I was giving the account the benefit of the doubt by not blocking account creation, IP address, etc. Because I really don't know 100% that Cedricong900 is the same person as Cedricong, I left it open for that person to create a non-Cedricong named account (as you can see on User talk:Cedricong900). If, in that one day, the person was truly legitimate and just picked a bad name and coincidentally started adding stuff to MapleStory (which I don't think was entirely vandalism, just didn't follow formatting and guidelines) and tried to create another account that got autoblocked, that would discourage a potential good editor. If you truly wish to experiment, create another account yourself, block it w/ account creation blocked (highly suggest you don't block the IP though :P), and test it out (you can always unblock later--even if your IP is blocked, too (I think, don't quote me on that), it won't block Rocky, so it should be fine). If another account with Cedricong in it is created by the time Echelon gets CheckUser running, I'll (or someone else will) be able to verify for sure if they are in fact the same person. (sorry for the incredibly long response). --Ryan SchmidtTalk - Contribs 15:08, 17 May 2007 (CDT)

What did I do?
You (somewhat rudely) asked me to look at the Strategy Wiki Guidelines. But what did I do? The only thing I can think of is adding my name to a guide, when you're not supposed to. Can you please tell me what I did wrong? Confused, Myth 21:40, 17 May 2007 (CDT)

Thanks
Thank you for the helpful advice. And you're forgiven. I really didn't know what I was doing, and I didn't want to make mistakes. And frankly, the Strategy Wiki introduction article really isn't that helpful; I didn't know until you told me how to indent, start a numbered list, or start a new paragraph. Also, if you corrected my walkthrough for Kollin and my items list, it's much appreciated. I thought I'd have to delete my Kollin Walkthrough because it wasn't in th right format. Thanks again, Myth 22:07, 17 May 2007 (CDT)
 * Content usually never gets deleted unless it is a copyright violation or obvious vandalism (and then it is usually reverted, not deleted). Also, the meat of the introductory article is in the subpages, not the first page. If you check out Guide/Table of Contents, you can see what it all has to offer. --Ryan SchmidtTalk - Contribs 22:11, 17 May 2007 (CDT)
