RR >> WIKIA CODING!

Dear Ed,

I am pleased to announce that the forums have been restored to their former state...I'm anticipating a problem that hasn't come up yet, but I'll run further tests and see.

Oh, and thanks for adding the coding line in MediaWiki Commons.

Cheers,

Scratch that...a bug I didn't anticipate popped up and the bug I anticipated didn't pop up. Lolz, computers. =D Cheers, Ghost Inside the Machine (Whisper through the Storm) (My Journeys) (Omens) 23:35, 20 March 2007 (UTC)

Please

Dear Administrator,

As you are probably aware, there are substantial problems with the forums - new topics are not listed on the main forum page. This is a problem occuring on other Wikis as well, which I am trying to rectify if it is a local problem, and which Wikia, Inc. will correct if it is a MediaWiki problem.

Also, please enter:

{{User:RelentlessRecusant/Sitenotice}}

Into MediaWiki:Sitenotice. I have done a large amount of research on MediaWiki v1.9, which we have just upgraded to last night, and am just detailing the ramifications of the upgrade and also announcing the forum breakdown.

Thank you.

Best regards,

message function edits

Dear Ed,

I have done a small amount of research on the MediaWiki, and have come up with proposed MediaWiki edits on User:RelentlessRecusant/Tech. Please implement what is on there, and I believe the message function will be restored to v1.8-era by my manual patches. Thnx.

Cheers,

Ghost Inside the Machine (Whisper through the Storm) (My Journeys) (Omens) 20:38, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

Forum Fixed!

Dear Ed,

I'm pleased to announce that I have fixed the forums. The error was caused by an error in MediaWiki v1.9, but my measure is a (fully functional) stopgap before the Central Wiki fixes it and reloads it onto Halopedia.

Cheers,

UNSC Navy Enlisted Ranks

Hey ED. Noticed that you've tagged all the UNSC Navy Enlisted Rank pages as FactOrFiction, asking for sources. If you can tell me what you mean by that specifically, I can go about finding them. -- Manticore Fleet Admiral.jpg Talk | CSV 10:16, 23 March 2007 (UTC)

The pages just need sources. Any source will do, just a place where the rank title was mentioned is fine. -ED 22:52, 23 March 2007 (UTC)

2nd Term on Fan Art Committee?

I thought users could only do one term in a row for the Fan Art Committee. However, Ryangreenday is running for re-election, is this allowed? I really don't remember, i just have a small memory somewhere in my head that i can't quite place saying "only one term in a row". Please do excuse me if I'm mistaken, i honestly don't remember. Thanks for your time.

Like the page says, you can serve as many terms in a row as you want if you have the votes. -ED 02:45, 24 March 2007 (UTC)

Vandal

Do you think you can ban, 82.110.211.249, a repeat vandal? He has repeatedly vandalized multiple pages, talking about vulgar topics which I would rather not repeat.--Caboose File:Caboose.jpg Orange Juice and Cookies 00:37, 25 March 2007 (UTC)

Are you sure that is the IP? It doesn't link to anything. -ED 00:58, 25 March 2007 (UTC)
Done. -ED 01:01, 25 March 2007 (UTC)

Sarcasm?

Oh no im saying teh truth agree with wath your saying.--ME The Great 20:11, 26 March 2007 (UTC)

Oh, OK. I couldn't really tell how you said that...stupid internet. -ED 20:57, 26 March 2007 (UTC)

I'm not considered active?

I guess not because I haven't been on for a while, I just remembered my password today and have had to use other accounts such as gaga23 and parp555 Haloman333 23:36, 26 March 2007 (UTC)

If you're talking about the status of your account on the wikia rankings, yes if you make no edits on an account in 1 month, you are considered inactive. -ED 01:40, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

Unyielding Hierophant pic

Ed, how come we know a lot more about unsc technology then covenant, and not many pic's of there starships. I mean we have the discriptions of these vessels in the halo books, but bungie only shows three typs of covenant ships in the curent halo games, and high chaity only shows covenant battle cruiers in there large fleet. Same goes with the Unyielding Hierophant, the "larger cariers" and the "five bubus section ship" in halo first strike, why is bungie so reluctent to show these ships or picks?--Admiral Sozai NexesLegendary.jpgFLEETCOMM 11:10, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

The Halo series is going in a different direction tahtn other sci-fi universes. Halo is immensely popular and makes huge money for bungie, as well as keeping fans like us hooked on it. Someday they may publish technical manuals, starship and fleet schematics, and the like, but for now, they have only limited manpower, and are pushing for quality over quantity. After all, Halo has a much smaller audience than Star Wars. -ED 19:45, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
Yes I know, the games make alot of money. And with the movie and other games to follow(Halo 3,halo wars), halo will proably attract more people. but they have made hundreds of books and novels that tell the whole story, staship discriptions can easly take phsical form within a persons mind, but do they ultmetly fit the apperance of the vessel in pics? bungie could at least give some sort of art, silluate, or model. No, I am not aruing on this matter, I am just voicing my opion to the unsolved mysters of halo, like the fourruners and there tecnogly.--Admiral Sozai NexesLegendary.jpgFLEETCOMM 22:54, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
Not gonna lie, I wish they would release something like that, too. It would be a lot of fun to add to the wiki. -ED 23:02, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
Me to, but one thing that excapes me is the locatons of the weapons on both the unsc and the covenant's staships--Admiral Sozai NexesLegendary.jpgFLEETCOMM 15:04, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

vandal

i just wanted to let you know of this vandal i saw: 72.75.234.42 . he vandalized a wikia staff's user page:Sannse. he also vandalised leckgolo's talk page, but you already fixed that. File:UoH.gif File:Navy Vice Admiral.PNGThe Lieutenant General 20:55, 28 March 2007 (UTC)

I blocked him quickly, it looks like he was trying to vandalize again. Good work. -ED 20:58, 28 March 2007 (UTC)

re: award

Thanks for the award.--Raptor117 02:47, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

Any Fan fic

Since I know that you may or may not be on Halo Fanon much...(long boring explanation), you can put any fanon on the wiki. The format that we have, doesn't have to be the set design, that was just the excepted design. By the way, I gave you roll-back rights on Halo Fanon, since you are a Bureaucrat here. Anyways thanks, --H*bad 03:20, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

Thanks very much. I may end up there more often than I thought. -ED 19:13, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

Fanfiction

Yes, but the stuff that Esemono deleted was on my page. My personal page. I don't think that putting fan-fic up there is a problem, correct? Please let me know. Regards, SPARTAN-091 File:UNSC.jpg HelmetComm||Juliet 19:47, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
