Contact Information

Do you have an AIM account or email I can contact you at? I'd like to talk with you a bit, especially since you're experienced with Wikibooks. Thanks. --Echelon 16:08, 6 February 2006 (PST)

Project Admin

Garrett, I've promoted you to SysOp and Bureaucrat because I believe you have exceptional experience with maintaining wikis. I look forward to working with you to make this project a successful one! :) --echelon talk 17:33, 11 March 2006 (PST)

Hey

Thanks for linking here from wikipedia. This is going to be another wiki that will take up WAY more of my time then I need it to. Congrats on being an Admin too ;).

Hope I can help out here with you guys. Mason11987 17:44, 24 April 2006 (PDT)

Deleting redirects

Double redirects are fine to delete (like the pointless "system" ones I made), but some like Microsoft should probably stay to redirect to Category:Microsoft. -- Mason11987 (Talk - Contributions) 17:01, 25 April 2006 (PDT)

Ah, yeah, I guess so. GarrettTalk 17:02, 25 April 2006 (PDT)

Template removal

Hey there. I saw you were merging some stuff from Wikibooks for Adventures of Lolo 2 (Japanese). You may have noticed I was using a template to try to draw levels with small graphics. I had thought that the use of a template would have eased things, but instead it's made things extremely nightmarish. I was wondering if it would be possible to get rid of the material I submitted for the template? I'm using modified versions of screenshots to get the point across and so far that's working out well.

The template basically consisted of images starting with: "Lolo_TileLandxxxx.png", where xxxx.png is the name of the tile. The whole template was a bad idea, and I'm sorry about it. --Sivak 18:25, 13 May 2006 (PDT)

Done. We all have dumb ideas sometime. :) GarrettTalk 19:06, 13 May 2006 (PDT)

Can you meet me in IRC?

Garrett, if you're going to be here within the next 30 minutes, would you mind meeting me in IRC? I have an idea I want to share. echelon  04:31, 19 May 2006 (PDT)


Format of Recruitment Pages for Radiata Stories

Garret, I have added a suggested format for the recruitment pages of Radiata Stories. Since you seem to be the only existing user to have touched it, I thought I would ask you before changing the format.

Basically, I am taking my FAQ (which is available on my home page as well as GameFAQs) and putting it into the wiki. I don't see the recruitment page as being easy to do. Actually, I don't think it is feasible to create it using the current format.

Please look at my suggestion and let me know what you think. wrp103 (Bill Pringle) 10:03, 19 May 2006 (PDT)

Screenshot template

Garrett, have you got anything planned for the screenshot template? It's sitting at the top of Special:Wantedpages looking lonely, as is the GFDL template. ;-) --DrBob 14:19, 28 May 2006 (PDT)

Successor

Ha! I was in the process of fixing my dumb mistake 'cause someone else was editing that page, so it wouldn't let me. Now I just look dumb.  :( Oh well, there's plenty more edit for me to do to make me look dumb.

I did it again. "there's plenty more edit for me to do..."--Filthy swine 15:07, 7 June 2006 (PDT)

Relicensing StrategyWiki - request for comments

Hi, I'm posting this notice on various user pages so that you can vote on our course of action. Please take a look at this topic about relicensing StrategyWiki. Your comments and vote would be much appreciated. Thanks.

If you have any questions regarding this matter, feel free to ask me on my talk page! echelon 11:04, 25 June 2006 (PDT)

Common.css

I just copied it as is while trying to find out what was up with the dynamic nav thing...It doesn't seem to work regardless of skin, see my userpage. -- Mason11987 (Talk - Contributions) 22:40, 26 June 2006 (PDT)

Upscaling

Hi Garrett. I noticed you upscaled the images on the retro titles I worked on. That's cool, however I was trying to conform to the changes that DrBob made to my Donkey Kong page. I'm comfortable following whichever formatting is correct, but now there's a discrepancy between DK and the other pages that I started. Just want to know which one I should use from now on (and if DK needs to be fixed.) Thanks!

Tagging non-main pages?

I saw you were tagging some guide subpages with the GDFL tag, I thought you said you weren't doing this anymore. -- Mason11987 (Talk - Contributions) 19:13, 30 June 2006 (PDT)
