==NOEDITSECION Theory==
I have a hunch that adding <nowiki>__NOEDITSECTION__</nowiki> to the top of pages actually helps against vandals, as they're very lazy in scrolling around. =P --[[User:Arrow|Arrow Windwhistler]] ([[User talk:Arrow|talk]]) 04:42, 7 December 2009 (UTC)


== Spam accounts ==
== Ad suppression ==


Hi Arrow!  Thanks very much for your help trying to block auto-generated accounts. I just had one question: How are you determining whether an account is a spam account or not?  What I tend to do is look at the IP addresses for each new user, and if I catch one that has two or more accounts created in a recent period of time (a month or two), I flag the accounts.  But if they've only created one, my confidence isn't so high that they are spam because it's too hard to tell.  What method are you using, maybe it's better than mine?  Thanks!

Hey, noticed your message to Skizzerz about the ads. I think this in your [[User:Arrow/BlueCloud.css|CSS page]] should get rid of 'em.
:OK, no problem, I appreciate the effort regardless.  Yeah, I'm always afraid of false positively catching someone up in a sweep, that's why I look for multiple accounts from the same IP. I added you to the Check Users group so you can use [[Special:CheckUser]].  It's a time consuming process but it can give you greater assurance that you're banning people who have no intention of contributing to the site.  I should talk with Prod about improving our captcha process again.  '''[[User:Procyon|<span style="color:red">Pro</span>]][[User talk:Procyon|<span style="color:grey">cyon</span>]]''' 18:30, 13 February 2020 (UTC)
::I've undone this as CheckUser is a very powerful permission that needs to be properly approved first. -- [[User:Prod|Prod]] ([[User talk:Prod|talk]]) 18:31, 13 February 2020 (UTC)


== For welcomes ==
<pre style="margin-left:20px;border:1px dashed #000;background-color:#dedede;padding:10px;width:250px">#bannerAdBox {display:none;}
It should work fine if you use <nowiki>{{subst:Welcome}}</nowiki>.  Then it should properly insert people's names and everything.  '''[[User:Procyon|<span style="color:red">Pro</span>]][[User talk:Procyon|<span style="color:grey">cyon</span>]]''' 15:02, 24 February 2020 (UTC)

Thanks for using Template:File on your recent uploads. I will ask that you do not add CC-BY SA to the files' license section as they are not eligible for fair use under creative commons. It will automatically be filled as fair use through the inclusion of "Icon" in type (see [[:File:CC2 Achievement PilotsLicense.jpg]]) through a more correct licensing. Thank you!

:Nothing T_T --[[User:Arrow|Arrow Windwhistler]] ([[User talk:Arrow|talk]]) 06:47, 13 December 2009 (UTC)
::I dunno then, bro. "bannerAdBox" and "towerAdBox" are the ids for the two ad divs from a page source I looked at, and it worked for me when I tested it in my BlueCloud.css. You could try using <tt>{display:none !important;}</tt> instead, although that wasn't necessary for me. I assume you used Ctrl+F5? Oh well, good luck, maybe Prod knows of a better way. — [[User:Najzere|<span style="color:#909090">najzere</span>]]<sup>[[User talk:Najzere|<span style="color:#993300">T</span>]]</sup> 20:56, 13 December 2009 (UTC)

==BSP==
==Multiple edit warnings==
It looks like you are mostly responsible for the images in [[:Category:Battlestations: Pacific images]]. Did you capture all of these yourself, or were some taken from other places? Just trying to pat down a source before I mess with em all. Thanks. [[User:Trig Jegman|Trig]] - 04:49, 4 February 2022 (UTC)
Hey, just a heads up – making multiple, rapid-fire edits is no longer a warnable offense. See {{t|consolidate}} for our new approach. BTW, did you ever get the ads sorted out? — [[User:Najzere|<span style="color:#909090">najzere</span>]]<sup>[[User talk:Najzere|<span style="color:#993300">T</span>]]</sup> 17:44, 2 January 2010 (UTC)
:Same for [[:Category:Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos images]], actually. [[User:Trig Jegman|Trig]] - 04:51, 4 February 2022 (UTC)
 
== Warcraft III ==
 
Can you take a look at the human info on [[Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos/Undead units]] and clear out any that isn't useful to transfer over to the relevant human units and buildings pages? -- [[User:Prod|Prod]] ([[User talk:Prod|Talk]]) 06:57, 25 January 2010 (UTC)
 
== Concerns about your edits ==
 
I know you're trying to help with cleanup and whatnot, but I feel that some of what you're doing is counterproductive. These are some things that I think will help both of us and the wiki as a whole.
# Put "subst:" in the beginning of message templates (e.g. <tt><nowiki>{{</nowiki>subst:consolidate}}</tt>).
# Don't hide edit summaries unless they contain copyrighted material, offensive content or personal information, per [[SW:AG#Hiding/deleting information in page histories and logs|SW:AG]].
# Put cleanup tags ''above'' the {{t|Header Nav}}.
# Don't stub articles that have [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl/Stages|10+ sections]], all of which [[Final Fight 2/Characters|have content]].
# Only use {{t|wikify}} to signify that the page needs wiki markup.
# Make your edit summaries meaningful and descriptive.
In general, sticking a bunch of cleanup tags on a page isn't all that helpful, especially when they don't include a reason. I'm not trying to be a jerk, but I do hope you take these points under advisement. Thanks, — [[User:Najzere|<span style="color:#909090">najzere</span>]]<sup>[[User talk:Najzere|<span style="color:#993300">T</span>]]</sup> 17:50, 26 January 2010 (UTC)
:I'll just leave cleanup to you =P --[[User:Arrow|Arrow Windwhistler]] ([[User talk:Arrow|talk]]) 18:57, 26 January 2010 (UTC)
 
== Upcoming meeting ==
 
As a reminder, there is a meeting this Saturday, May 29, on IRC taking place at 2:00pm EDT (UTC -4). As always, agenda is available on the forums, so you may view it and suggest additions there. Hope to see you there! --{{User:Ryan Schmidt/sig4}} 04:03, 27 May 2010 (UTC)
 
== Deleted userpage ==
 
Have you disappeared?  I noticed you deleted your userpage? -- [[User:Prod|Prod]] ([[User talk:Prod|Talk]]) 20:31, 10 April 2011 (UTC)
 
== Centering images ==
 
It appears that |center now works in image tags (believe it was in 1.16 that it was fixed).  The code produced is pretty much the same as what you changed it to though. -- [[User:Prod|Prod]] ([[User talk:Prod|Talk]]) 17:34, 2 June 2011 (UTC)
 
== 900px widths ==
 
We might actually be switching to an 800px fixed width in the future (replacing those 200px with additional functionality).  Haven't figured out an exact timeline, but setting the width that large may not come out properly after. -- [[User:Prod|Prod]] ([[User talk:Prod|Talk]]) 22:54, 15 June 2011 (UTC)
 
== AoE ==
 
Alright, thanks. I've gone back through them and changed what I've found. Let me know if I left anything out, though. I'm always looking for ways to make them better- and it's kind of fun going back through these old games. : )

== Final Fantasy Tactics ==
 
Hello!!<br />
My (user)name is drkelflord and i would like your help<br />

You see, after touring this site and subsequently joining, I<br />
realized that the Final Fantasy Tactics page has a great deal of pages<br />
that are simply gone or missing(or never there)and i would like to rectify <br />
that. If you or anyone else could help me with this i would be greatly apreciative<br />
<br />
<br />
thank you for your time<br />
sincerly--[[User:Drkelflord|Drkelflord]] 19:44, 12 March 2012 (UTC)
