User talk:0-172/1

=My Talk= Hello, this is my talk page. Please feel free to discuss anything with me. I will answer to your message as soon as possible.

"Vandalism"
I noticed your message on PRIME HUNTER's talk page about vandalism of one of the MPH pages. Although it could be called vandalism by some, I don't believe that starting a page with the word "hi" in it is vandalism, as it's not damage to existing property. I suppose it would be making a nuisance of oneself, but I don't believe that this is of any level of severity to warrant a warning. Regardless, in future, could you report vandalism (and related stuff) to a SysOp or bureaucrat such as myself or echelon on our talk pages, and we'll deal with it; it's much cleaner that way. Thanks. :-) --DrBob (Talk) 12:18, 3 September 2006 (CDT)

Most promising guide of the month
The most promising guide of the month is to be decided by consensus in community issues, not just decided by you because it's your guide. I'll let it go this time, but please don't do it again. --DrBob (Talk) 13:54, 23 September 2006 (CDT)

Sorry about that, I was just checking it out. I should not have done that. 0-172 13:56, 23 September 2006 (CDT)

Metroid Prime Hunters
I fixed the pic for you. You had it right, just with upper case letters. Also, try to make a more descriptive image name, perhaps Metroid Prime Hunter Trace or something. (I don't really know how the game works). -- Prod 22:14, 23 September 2006 (CDT)

Image categorisation
I see you've been uploading a few images lately. When doing so, could you please make sure to categorise them using the correct image categories? The image policy is viewable here, and contains all the information you'll need to categorise future uploads. --DrBob (Talk) 16:41, 24 September 2006 (CDT)
 * 0-172 can you please categorise your images when you upload them? In not doing so, you're just creating unnecessary work for others. --DrBob (Talk) 19:46, 29 September 2006 (CDT)
 * Categorisation doesn't just mean creating a category for the game's images (which should coindidentally have "images" in the name rather than "Images"); it also means adding the image to categories such as "Items" or "Characters" and "Models", "Sprites" or "Artwork". Please re-read the image categorisation policy. --DrBob (Talk) 10:03, 30 September 2006 (CDT)
 * I can see a marked improvement here; well done. However, the "Artwork" category is intended for things like artist's drawings; the Halo images you put in there could better be categorised as "Models", as they are images of the actual models used in the game. --DrBob (Talk) 13:57, 30 September 2006 (CDT)

Image filenames
0-172, I hate to pile on you with DrBob, but there are significant issues with your image contributions. In addition to DrBob's point about image categories, I don't feel that you are taking enough time to properly name your filenames. Sticking a 1, 2, 3, and so on at the end of your filenames is not doing a good job. If you can take the time to say that such and such a file is a picture of a Ford or an Audi, why can't you just put Ford or Audi in the filename?

Look, the fact is, you're one of StrategyWiki's most energetic contributors, and an asset to the website in general. But if you would only take the time and care more about the organization of the website (that includes properly sub-paging when appropriate), than you would be even more valuable. But if you don't take the time to improve some of your habits, and stop creating more work for DrBob and I to fix up, there's going to be consequences, and I don't want to see blocked from this site. Please ask me any questions if you're not sure what to do, OK? Thanks! Procyon 14:30, 30 September 2006 (CDT)
