No, don’t worry - it’s no trouble at all. I just wanted to make sure you knew, so that it won’t look like I’m just deleting all your hard work when I make the changes and delete that page. As for your lost password, that’s not something I can help you with myself, but porplemontage should be able to reset it for you.

Also I forgot my password, is that something an admin can tell me?

Hey man, thanks! I was not aware of this project and will keep it in mind. Sorry if I have caused trouble for you guys.

Hey, I noticed you were doing some work on the SRS99-S5 gameplay page. I just wanted to let you know that there’s currently an ongoing project that is going to make all /Gameplay pages obsolete (don’t worry, though, all of the content of those pages will be moved elsewhere). Basically, instead of having SRS99 AM sniper rifle/Gameplay, SRS99C/Gameplay, 99D/Gameplay, etc, we’re going to have one big gameplay page titled “Sniper Rifle”, where all of that info will go. For a draft of that that page will look like, see this page. We’ll be doing this for all weapons, vehicles, enemies, etc, in the future. Just wanted to let you know so that when the change comes, it doesn’t look like your work just got deleted - it’ll only have been moved. Also, you’re welcome to help out on these pages if you like :)

No worries. Everyone's got to start somewhere! I had about the same amount of edits of you this time six years ago (albeit on Halo Nation), and I was made admin there within two and a bit years. Just keep at it!

Hey! As far as the official criteria go, they're all listed here. However, in terms of the qualities that people tend to look for in patrollers before nominating them, we usually look for folks with a good deal of experience with the wiki, who know how it works, and are familiar with the policies and editing conventions. Additionally, it has to be someone who's shown maturity and level-headedness, so we know they won't misuse the abilities the rank grants. Finally, the last quality we would look for would be a demonstrable long term commitment to the wiki - we wouldn't want to give the rank to someone who then just disappears and doesn't continue to contribute. Oh, and joining the Discord helps, as it makes it easier for everyone to get you know you.

Hello. I know I am no where near ready, but what qualities does a patroller need? Becoming a patroller has been an ambition of mine, but I feel like being a patroller is more than just making good edits. Thank you for your time.
