== Staff meeting ==
== SEIWA ==


Hey Moydow.  Prod is not online, and I wanted to let someone else know that I can't make the meeting today. I'm attending a volunteer fund raiser, and I'm heading out soon. Please extend my apologies to everyone. Thanks.  '''[[User:Procyon|<span style="color:red">Pro</span>]][[User talk:Procyon|<span style="color:grey">cyon</span>]]''' 10:15, 30 October 2010 (CDT)
Hi there, I'm KeybladeSpyMaster, editor at the ''Kingdom Hearts'' Wiki. I'm sorry if this isn't the appropriate place to dump this, but I'm not sure where else to put this. My understanding is that you have control of the SEIWA site ([http://www.seiwanetwork.org]). I was hoping you could help me in my recent efforts to revive SEIWA, following yours, Tacopill's, and Sove's opposition to disbanding it. I've made a post on the SEIWA forums (which I can't link because the images to verify against spam don't load), which includes a link to a draft I made for the new SEIWA hub. Tell me what you think! I sure hope we could ultimately revive SEIWA so that it finally becomes the vibrant and complete alliance it was originally designed to be!

:That's OK, I'll let them know. Hope to see you there next time. {{User:Moydow/Signature}} 10:24, 30 October 2010 (CDT)
::Well, Prod wasn't there either, so there was no meeting today. {{User:Moydow/Signature}} 15:52, 30 October 2010 (CDT)


== "Image:OR Dr. Kubota.gif" has been marked for deletion... ==
:I'll respond on the forum itself. (wonders why the wiki didn't send a notification email about this) --{{User:Moydow/Signature}} 19:00, 29 October 2014 (UTC)


...as I have replaced it with the screenshot "Image:OR Dr. Kubota's Machine.png". I have also requested "Image:OR Kiwi R2.gif", "Image:OR Kiwi Base R2.gif" and "Image:OR Fire Turtle.png" to be renamed to "Image:OR Kiwi R2&7.gif", "Image:OR Kiwi Base R2&7.gif" and "Image:OR Fire Tortoise.png" respectively. You may also have noticed that I have marked [[Ordyne/Tips]] for deletion as well, on account of the fact that I had merged its content with the renamed [[Ordyne/Getting Started|Getting Started]] page yesterday.

== Thank you for the welcome! ==
Hello Moydow, thanks so much for helping me out with the box art pictures of the games. I will try to be more organized in my future edits for the box art. Again thanks for helping out and sorry for wasting your time for helping me out. -- [[User:RodKimble|RodKimble]] ([[User talk:RodKimble|talk]]) 21:06, 2 December 2014 (UTC)


Thank you very much for the welcoming you gave. This is not my first Wiki page I have worked on, as I am a Computer/LAN technician for the US Army and I have had to make several from scratch for various training networks I have built. This is however my first time creating a game guide, and the method of editing this particular site seems wonky to me. That is not a complaint about the site, just an acknowledgment that it is new to me.
== Apologies ==


I do have one question up front for you. I was reading some of the help pages, and also researching on what is normally expected here. One of the things I saw, and cannot seem to figure out how to do, is layouts for Table of contents. The example given on [[StrategyWiki:Guide/Table of contents|Table of contents]] under Common Layouts is what I am referring to. I know [[Fallout: New Vegas]] is going to require me to modify the current layout to make it more aesthetically pleasing to me (OCD here). What I am primarily questioning, is if you can point me to a couple of guides that demonstrate each of the examples given, so I can look under the hood and see how it ticks.
Hey Moydow, I just wanted to apologize real quick about the typo on RK's page, brain fart on my part. I hope you weren't offended. '''[[User:Procyon|<span style="color:red">Pro</span>]][[User talk:Procyon|<span style="color:grey">cyon</span>]]''' 15:43, 3 December 2014 (UTC)
:Haha, no problem. No offence taken. --{{User:Moydow/Signature}} 00:10, 4 December 2014 (UTC)
::Sorry about that Moydow. I feel so bad for wasting your time fixing my problems, instead of helping out strategywiki. I will look back at my work before going straight to another page. -- [[User:RodKimble|RodKimble]] ([[User talk:RodKimble|talk]]) 02:12, 29 January 2015 (UTC)


Thank you again.

Hey Moydow.  Thanks for making all of the modifications to this guide.  I had no idea that Nintendo decided to release the game in US on the 3DS.  So thank you very much for taking that on and updating all the pages and images.  I appreciate it.  '''[[User:Procyon|<span style="color:red">Pro</span>]][[User talk:Procyon|<span style="color:grey">cyon</span>]]''' 18:50, 14 February 2015 (UTC)


== F-Zero: Climax ==


Between Procyon and Prod, I was able to figure out what I wanted to do. Just wanted to let you know.--[[User:Cypherwulfe|Cypherwulfe]] 04:20, 2 November 2010 (CDT)
Hey Moydow. Sorry for deleting that F-Zero page, it's just all F-Zero Games have these : before Like F-Zero: Maximum Velocity, F-Zero: GP Legend, and F-Zero: Climax so I just think it looks more organized that way. -- [[User:RodKimble|RodKimble]] ([[User talk:RodKimble|talk]]) 01:36, 23 February 2015 (UTC)
:That's ok. I got called out around when you posted your first message, and had no time to reply, but at least you got what you needed. Best of luck. {{User:Moydow/Signature}} 06:41, 2 November 2010 (CDT)
:Yes, but it's not a case of what looks more organised, it's a case of "F-Zero Climax doesn't have a colon in its title, therefore we don't have a colon in its title here". --{{User:Moydow/Signature}} 01:24, 23 February 2015 (UTC)
::This is the last time I'm trying to help you out I'm trying to be nice and your messing with my pages at least notmyhandle helps me unlike you. -- [[User:RodKimble|RodKimble]] ([[User talk:RodKimble|talk]]) 01:36, 23 February 2015 (UTC)
::: I'm sorry if you took my changing things you've edited the wrong way. I'm not trying to "mess with" anything, just trying to ensure that everything is correct and in order. I certainly don't mean to cause offence by it. --{{User:Moydow/Signature}} 01:42, 23 February 2015 (UTC)
:::: No don't be sorry I should be sorry for saying that to you. Everyone here including you has been so nice, and on strategywiki more than I have been. -- [[User:RodKimble|RodKimble]] ([[User talk:RodKimble|talk]]) 02:42, 23 February 2015 (UTC)


== [[Ordyne/Strategies]] has been marked for deletion... ==
== References ==
If not within the guide, where should references be placed? - [[User:Lexmechanic|Lexmechanic]] ([[User talk:Lexmechanic|talk]]) 23:51, 23 February 2015 (UTC)
:Usually you would put a link on the talk page, as you did, or just drop it in the edit summary. We're not like Wikipedia, in that we don't require every detail to be referenced, but we do ask you to at least acknowledge your sources when you use material from other sites. --{{User:Moydow/Signature}} 00:24, 24 February 2015 (UTC)
::Alright, I'll do that. - [[User:Lexmechanic|Lexmechanic]] ([[User talk:Lexmechanic|talk]]) 00:28, 24 February 2015 (UTC)


...as its content has been merged with the individual round pages. Unused redirect [[Metal Hawk/Elements]] should also be another page intended for the trash can, and I have requested that "Image:MH Jeto 1.gif", "Image:MH Jeto 2.gif", "Image:MH Eakurafuto.gif", "Image:MH Inparusu.gif", "Image:MH Jipu.gif" and "Image:MH Basu.gif" be renamed to the properly-romanized "Image:MH Jet 1.gif", "Image:MH Jet 2.gif", "Image:MH Aircraft.gif", "Image:MH Impulse.gif", "Image:MH Jeep.gif" and "Image:MH Bus.gif" respectively.

== Name Change ==
:Done {{User:Moydow/Signature}} 11:17, 7 November 2010 (CST)
 
Hey, Moydow. Can you change my name to "Justin ZW?" I haven't gone by Neo in probably three or four years. I'm honestly surprised I was able to guess my username at all, haha.[[User:ZW Neo|ZW Neo]] ([[User talk:ZW Neo|talk]]) 07:39, 25 February 2015 (UTC)
 
:I can't change it myself, but I'll pass this on to Prod, and he should be able to change it for you. --{{User:Moydow/Signature}} 16:03, 25 February 2015 (UTC)
::The user "ZW Neo" has been renamed to "Justin ZW". -- [[User:Prod|Prod]] ([[User talk:Prod|talk]]) 18:05, 25 February 2015 (UTC)
:::Thanks, dude.[[User:Justin ZW|Justin ZW]] ([[User talk:Justin ZW|talk]]) 20:53, 25 February 2015 (UTC)
 
== Awesome ==
Hey Moydow, I just wanted to say how awesome you are and I want to like you when I grow up. -- [[User:RodKimble|RodKimble]] ([[User talk:RodKimble|talk]]) 19:41, 14 April 2015 (UTC)
 
== Call for help - patrolling edits ==
 
Hi Moydow, this is a public service announcement for active admins. Our unpatrolled queue is hovering around 1500 and I am having difficulty keeping up with the queue. We need your help. If you have any spare time, I would really appreciate it if you could please take a look and see if you can patrol (thoroughly) anything. Some people take this as an invite to go to a page and click the patrolled link without doing anything - that's not what I'm asking. I need quality control. If you have any questions, please let me know. The URL I use to view the whole queue at this time is [http://strategywiki.org/w/index.php?title=Special:RecentChanges&hidepatrolled=1&days=60&limit=1800 here] (60 days old, hide patrolled, show up to 1800 edits). Many thanks, --{{User:Notmyhandle/Sig}} 20:32, 20 April 2015 (UTC)
 
:I'd help if I could, but at the moment I'm bogged down in college work and exams, and don't really have enough time to commit to this. I won't be finished for about 2-3 weeks. Also, congrats on the promotion. --{{User:Moydow/Signature}} 16:39, 22 April 2015 (UTC)
 
::No problem! Thanks for getting back to me. We're under 1000 unpatrolled right now so we are getting a hold on things. I appreciate anything you can put into the site. Good luck on your finals! --{{User:Notmyhandle/Sig}} 00:35, 24 April 2015 (UTC)
 
== Duel Destinies ==
 
When are you going to finish the editing on the walkthrough of Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney- Duel Destinies? {{unsigned|Yuval}}
:Whenever I get around to it. Leaving comments like "i did my job, now do yours" isn't going to make me do it any sooner, it just makes you sound ungrateful (particularly when your "job" consists of two images, and nothing of substance to the guide). Remember that StrategyWiki's editors only work on the guides in our spare time because we want to do them - it's not our "job" and we don't get paid for it. --{{User:Moydow/Signature}} 23:03, 6 November 2015 (UTC)
Yes, I'm sorry. I will wait. But will you finish the walkthrough before Ace Attorney 6 will come out?
By the way, I did a good job with the editing there right? {{unsigned|Yuval}}
:Since you asked for feedback, I'll be perfectly honest with you: not really.  Compare your effort to the amount of effort Moydow has made.  You added two images, which I left a message on your talk page about because you didn't include the proper categories when you uploaded them, and as of right now, you still haven't.  You added a sentence that was a) unnecessary and b) grammatically incorrect.  So, no, you didn't do a good job with the editing.  Understand that this is a wiki, and no one is required to work on any particular guide at any particular pace.  People are invited to contribute as much or as little as they feel like.  And stop forgetting to sign your posts.  '''[[User:Procyon|<span style="color:red">Pro</span>]][[User talk:Procyon|<span style="color:grey">cyon</span>]]''' 16:14, 7 November 2015 (UTC)
I am just 16 years old. Do you really think I amd understanding wiki editing?
:Uh... what kind of excuse is that?  We have several editors who are younger than you, and they do an excellent job.  '''[[User:Procyon|<span style="color:red">Pro</span>]][[User talk:Procyon|<span style="color:grey">cyon</span>]]''' 19:08, 7 November 2015 (UTC)
I am 16 years old and I only start wiki editing like a month ago.
That's better!?
 
== Administration nomination ==
 
Hi Moydow. What's the craic in Eire? I was recently nominated for administrator. Can I ask you to give your opinion? It is [[StrategyWiki:Requests_for_permissions/Abacos|here]]. --[[User:Abacos|Abacos]] ([[User talk:Abacos|talk]]) 10:07, 9 February 2016 (UTC)
 
== Fates stats ==
 
When I'm listing the stats of a boss, do you think I should include the bonuses that they may get from items or skills? I'm not sure whether or not to do so. [[User:Lukey140701|Lukey140701]] ([[User talk:Lukey140701|talk]]) 14:23, 24 July 2016 (UTC)

Hello! Someone hasn't added ARMS Institute to the main page. Could you take care of it? --[[User:Raltseye|Raltseye]] ([[User talk:Raltseye|talk]]) 15:47, 27 July 2017 (UTC)
:I took care of it, sans any kind of icon... '''[[User:Procyon|<span style="color:red">Pro</span>]][[User talk:Procyon|<span style="color:grey">cyon</span>]]''' 16:49, 27 July 2017 (UTC)
