Bots[edit]

Check out WP:WP:AWB. It's a fairly easy to use/set up bot. I mainly use its find/replace features so you'll need to learn a bit out that stuff (and be very careful with it ;)). -- Prod (Talk) 00:52, 26 September 2007 (CDT)

What exactly does that have to do with bots? Lunar Knight (Talk to me + Contribs) 17:55, 26 September 2007 (CDT)
What do you want your bot to do? If it's things like automatically moving a bunch of pages from one category to another, it's a matter of finding the category text and replacing it with the new category. Similarly, spell checks/formatting checks all require find/replacements. -- Prod (Talk) 19:39, 26 September 2007 (CDT)
I want my bot to categorize images. Lunar Knight (Talk to me + Contribs) 17:37, 30 September 2007 (CDT)

Cleanup project members[edit]

As part of our ongoing cleanup project, we are transitioning to a category based membership scheme for the StrategyWiki:Cleanup project. The member listing at the bottom of the page has been removed so if you would like to rejoin the project, please add Category:Cleanup project members to your user page. -- Prod (Talk) 13:05, 12 October 2007 (CDT)

Recruiting[edit]

I suggest you hunt down some forums for the games you're working on to find interested help. --Notmyhandle (talk contribs) 19:14, 27 February 2008 (CST)

I've already tried on Neoseeker, I have a few people, but they won't be around until the summer. I have yet to make any sort of recruitment attempt at Gamespot/Gamefaqs, I see about doing that. Lunar Knight (Talk to me + Contribs) 10:34, 29 February 2008 (CST)

forum registration issues[edit]

There is a thread on this at the staff lounge, although if that doesn't help, try asking echelon on his talk page. --Skizzerz (talk · contribs) 16:59, 30 March 2008 (CDT)

Ech was trying to fix it last night. Have you tried again today? -- Prod (Talk) 14:21, 6 April 2008 (CDT)
Yeah, I tried it earlier and to no success. Lunar Knight (Talk to me + Contribs) 15:04, 6 April 2008 (CDT)

Good to see you alive[edit]

As gamers, it's quite easy to fall out of communities as we get addicted to the games we love... ahahaha. --Notmyhandle (talk contribs) 19:50, 22 June 2008 (CDT)

Yeah, I really need to get back to contributing, I have a lot of work to get out of the way. One problem: I just discovered the awesomeness of Starcraft. It may be awhile... ;-) Lunar Knight (Talk to me + Contribs) 17:04, 23 June 2008 (CDT)
Yup, it's kind of hard not to love such a perfect game. --Notmyhandle (talk contribs) 03:19, 25 June 2008 (CDT)

Hey LK. Prod is the ToC master, he does a much better job of arranging that stuff than I. The ToC looks fine in general to me, and if he approves of your edits, then you're golden. My only suggestions would be to merge all of the Alt-forms into one page, put that page under "Multiplayer, Basics", and move the list of Hunters to directly below the Basics list, which would collapse the length of the ToC a little bit and fill in some of the white space. Procyon (Talk) 15:05, 5 July 2008 (CDT)

I would actually say merge the alt forms to the hunters pages. Since morph ball is samus' alt, i'm assuming that they can change back and forth between them so it makes sense to have both strategies together. As Procyon said, if you can get rid of the alt forms column, you can get rid of the whole bottom row. Are the different modes multiplayer specific, or are there multiple single player modes? -- Prod (Talk) 20:15, 5 July 2008 (CDT)
Yeah, I thought of that earlier. It didn't make much sense to merge all the alt form info into one page because the hunters had their separate pages, it would make a lot more sense to move all the alt form info onto the hunter pages. The game modes are multi-player specific. Lunar Knight (Talk to me + Contribs) 20:19, 5 July 2008 (CDT)

Banning[edit]

Over here, we haven't really discussed a banning policy, but we're trying to attract visitors. I'd prefer we just ban malicious vandals as long as it takes for them to forget about the site (week should be long enough). -- Prod (Talk) 16:45, 5 July 2008 (CDT)

Got it. ;-) Lunar Knight (Talk to me + Contribs) 17:59, 5 July 2008 (CDT)

MPH[edit]

Ahaha! You've definitely earned it man. --Notmyhandle (talk contribs) 18:42, 8 July 2008 (CDT)

Happy Birthday[edit]

Sorry I'm late XD --Notmyhandle (talk contribs) 15:18, 13 July 2008 (CDT)

Thanks. I'm not bothered, you're one the only people to say that. ;-) Lunar Knight (Talk to me + Contribs) 15:17, 14 July 2008 (CDT)

last.fm[edit]

Here I am. --DrBob (talk) 13:40, 17 August 2008 (CDT)
