| == ZW Firefox Search Plugin == | | == Welcome to talking! == |
| After having major luck putting together a working Firefox search plugin for VGRC, I was messing around and realized that if Wikipedia has one, then why not Zelda Wiki? I've got one together somewhat (hobbled together from the Wikipedia search plugin and the VGRC plugin I made) and testing reveals that it works, but I need a copy of the ZW favicon in 16x16 png format. I don't check in this place often, so hit me up on AIM; you know the sn. --[[User:Captain Cornflake|Captain Cornflake]] 23:27, 9 October 2006 (CDT)

| == Deletion requests == | | ==I want to delete my account!== |
|
| |
|
| Hi, I was wondering if you could delete [[:Category:Creatures]] and ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time]]'' for me. ''Ocarina'' so I can move the article there to match up with the rest of the games articles, unless you feel like doing that yourself.
| | I can't find out how. Can you help me!? |
| <br>Also, the Category links on the Main Page can be done by typing the same as you would to categorise that page but then putting a : in front, like this:
| |
| <pre>[[:Category:Zelda]]</pre>
| |
| That way you don't have to have the external link appearance, or as much code in the source. Thank you for your time. [[User:Ian Moody|Ian Moody]] 07:01, 25 Jun 2005 (CDT)

| Finished with the jobs you requested. ;)
| | :Hey there. Because of how wikis are structured, we cannot delete your account. However: |
| | | :*You are able to clear your "real name" and email address in your [[Special:Preferences|preferences]]. |
| :Thank you very much. :) | | :*We can delete your user page. |
| :I was wondering if you would think it useful to have a [[:Category:Articles for deletion|category of pages for deletion]] so any pages someone thinks should be deleted could just be placed in there, or perhaps a general [[Zelda Universe Wiki:Messageboard|messageboard]] where people could leave requests for mod help, or just comments or requests for help from other users. We could also perhaps create something similar to [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Db one of wikipedia's deletion templates] (and by create, I mean modify the code of one of wikipedia's).
| | :Please let me know if you would like us to take that action. [[User:TriforceTony|TriforceTony]] ([[User talk:TriforceTony|talk]]) 00:47, 28 March 2024 (UTC) |
| :Oh and also, if the disambiguation template is put in the disambiguation category, any pages using it will be put in the category to without putting the tag in the page. I'd make the change myself but the disambig template is locked. It probably won't make that much difference if we were to do it that way instead, but I thought I'd tell you. I may implement it with my Enemy and Boss templates. [[User:Ian Moody|Ian Moody]] 03:14, 27 Jun 2005 (CDT)

| == Extension request ==
| |
| | |
| Hi, I was wondering if it would be possible for you to install the [http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/ParserFunctions ParserFunctions extension] so it could be used in templates? Thanks for your time. — [[User:Ian Moody|Ian Moody]] <sup>([[User talk:Ian Moody|talk]])</sup> 11:24, 8 October 2006 (CDT)
| |
| | |
| : Looks useful, so I installed it. Thanks for recommending that. It wasn't as easy installing it through my laptop, though - my normal computer up and caught fire on me and died. Should be up and running again tomorrow when the spare parts come in. (Haven't you noticed I haven't been around doing anything? That's because my compy blew up. ;) ) --[[User:GoldenChaos|Jase]] 12:25, 8 October 2006 (CDT) | |
| | |
| ::Thanks a lot :), now I'm gonna go make full use of it in templates. I haven't been active on this myself for months but recent changes and activity have spurred me into doing stuff again. — [[User:Ian Moody|Ian Moody]] <sup>([[User talk:Ian Moody|talk]])</sup> 12:35, 8 October 2006 (CDT)

| :::Great! Having an experienced wiki-er around is motivating. :) --[[User:Jin|Jin]] 17:55, 9 October 2006 (CDT)

| Sorry to bother you again but I'm having trouble with using HTML table code inside if functions. [http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/ParserFunctions#Tables] suggests "setting $wgUseTidy=true; in your LocalSettings.php" might fix the problem so if that were possible I would be grateful. — [[User:Ian Moody|Ian Moody]] <sup>([[User talk:Ian Moody|talk]])</sup> 13:44, 8 October 2006 (CDT)
| |
| | |
| : Done. Let me know if there are still problems. --[[User:GoldenChaos|Jase]] 15:31, 8 October 2006 (CDT)
| |
| | |
| I'm getting little errors at the top of each screen that distort the whole of the wiki's appearance, which I believe to be caused either by the extension or the variable I enabled after installing it. Are you also seeing this? If so, I would like to try disabling that variable and see if it solves the problem. --[[User:GoldenChaos|Jase]] 20:36, 8 October 2006 (CDT)
| |
| :Yeah I'm getting them too. I've posted a help request to [http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Project:Support_desk#Error_messages_after_setting_.24wgUseTidy_to_true the MediaWiki support desk] but in the meantime it's probably best to just change it back to <code>false</code>. Hopefully there will be a way to fix it properly but if there isn't I think I can get the template working another way; it's just going to make the code harder to read, but that shouldn't be a major problem as it shouldn't be edited that often. — [[User:Ian Moody|Ian Moody]] <sup>([[User talk:Ian Moody|talk]])</sup> 04:19, 9 October 2006 (CDT)

| == Hey, I'm new ==
| |
| | |
| Hi. I'm Dinoshaur, and I was wondering about this wiki. I've a few questions/requests.
| |
| | |
| *Why are there so many pages that have nothing to do with Zelda? (e.g. Chrono Trigger, English etc.) | |
| *Could we change the colour scheme? For one, the odd font colours and background are little painful on the eyes.
| |
| *Could we move some of the projects (Like the Firefox plugins) on to the wiki namespace? If we changed it to <font color=blue><u>Zelda Wiki.org:ZW.org Search Plugin</u></font color> and got a page for stuff like that (and possibly a category for them) it'd be more organised.
| |
| | |
| Peace out! --[[User:Dinoshaur|Dinoshaur]] 12:45, 21 December 2006 (CST)
| |
| | |
| : Hey there. I'll address your requests one by one...
| |
| :: 1.) This is probably one of the most asked questions. On top of offering a ton of Zelda info, we don't object to pages about Nintendo in general. While it's not the main focus, there is a category for "Nintendo," and there's nothing wrong with it, considering that the Zelda franchise spans far beyond just the games themselves. As for the nonsense articles like "English," they go into a category which was made for random, miscellaneous articles. Occasionally we get people who object to its existence, but generally people don't mind having a small category where random, fun articles can be created.
| |
| :: 2.) I just redid the layout to look like what you don't like. And it was one heck of a job. Most people don't have a problem with it, so unless I get confronted by a hundred people I think I'll leave the layout as-is. ;) (Oh, and if you're really seeing ODD colors, let me know - I see dark blue and subtle grey-white, which is definitely not hard on my eyes.)
| |
| :: 3.) That's a good idea, actually. I'll move it there.
| |
| :If you have any more questions/suggestions, just keep tossing them out - I love to answer them! (Except layout stuff, I might be too lazy to completely change the layout stuff.) --[[User:GoldenChaos|Jase]] 14:46, 21 December 2006 (CST)
| |
| | |
| Heh, very well, if you enjoy questions and requests so much...
| |
| *Could we add a "signatures" to preferences? There's a subst lock on it, so we need to get around that. It makes putting posts on talk pages so much more pretty. If you need the code, I could fish it out for you. | |
| *Could we add a <nowiki>{{tobedeleted}}</nowiki> code? If we slap it on a bad or unwanted page, it could alert you or other admins to the page in mind.
| |
| *Is their other administrators other than yourself? Could I see a list so I know who to go to if there's a problem?
| |
| *One last thing, do we have a list of interwiki links?
| |
| Once again, thank you for your time. --User:Dinoshaur/sig 04:05, 22 December 2006 (CST)
| |
| | |
| : Alrighty, let's tackle all this...
| |
| :: 1.) I thought that already was an option. If it's locked, I didn't know about it. Any idea how to unlock it? ;)
| |
| :: 2.) Sure. Again, feel free to make the template (or any others you wish to make). Make sure that the template puts the corresponding articles in the "Articles for Deletion" category.
| |
| :: 3.) There are MANY more administrators. In fact, they come from every website that manages this Wiki. While I'm the most active, they are not nonexistent, since they, too, work on the wiki. I do know that some of them might be gone for the holidays or are currently visiting relatives, so they might not respond to you. (I'm Jewish - my holiday ends tonight, and my present was the Wii.) If you want to see the full list, go [[Zelda Wiki.org:Administrators|here]].
| |
| :: 4.) No, I'm pretty sure we don't. Though, it would be helpful. ;)

| == Quote template ==
| |
| | |
| Can we get a Quote template?--[[User:Herbsewell|Herbsewell]] 10:34, 2 January 2007 (CST)
| |
| : Sure. Just make one. (As in, don't know how, and I don't have the time to find out.) if you can do Wikipedia's, that would be great - just search their's and make it here. If the colors are off, I'll find that and fix it later. --[[User:GoldenChaos|Jase]] 14:06, 2 January 2007 (CST)
| |
| *I was thinking of making a quote template for well quotes. I thought that we could take articles on people like Link, Zelda, Ganondorf, etc. and have a quote from every game that they are in.--[[User:Herbsewell|Herbsewell]] 14:16, 2 January 2007 (CST)
| |
| **Is it okay if I just copy and paste? I don't really use Wikipedia, but I am part of some wikias and actually hosted on myself, so I'll just be taking it from my favorite one.--[[User:Herbsewell|Herbsewell]] 14:32, 2 January 2007 (CST)
| |
| | |
| == A Link to the Past ==
| |
| | |
| For ''A Link to the Past'''s main picture, can we use the one from Wikipedia?--[[User:Herbsewell|Herbsewell]] 15:22, 2 January 2007 (CST)
| |
| : Sure, just don't copy the whole article while you take the picture! And on the topic of you last question - you can use any quotes template that suits you. As long as it serves its purpose. ;) --[[User:GoldenChaos|Jase]] 16:19, 2 January 2007 (CST)
| |
| | |
| == Abbreviations ==
| |
| | |
| I've seen some articles that use "LoZ", "OoT", "TWW", etc. Some of the titles are long I must admit, but can we put the whole name for article formality?--[[User:Herbsewell|Herbsewell]] 15:20, 3 January 2007 (CST)
| |
| :Might I suggest something? Maybe we can abbreviate them the second time after the title is addressed... [[User:Erebus|Erebus]] 15:26, 3 January 2007 (CST)
| |
| *Well that's what I'm talking about. We could do that but then the article would look unprofessional and low-grade.--[[User:Herbsewell|Herbsewell]] 15:32, 3 January 2007 (CST)
| |
| | |
| I believe that writing it out first and then abbreviating it would be good enough. I would like to comment on how many of the articles for items and such don't have the game they were for. I believe that should be corrected.
| |
| | |
| *Why don't we use a system of pictures?--[[User:Herbsewell|Herbsewell]] 19:02, 3 January 2007 (CST)
| |
| | |
| : Eh, if this is what the conversation has come to, move it to a different page... it doesn't belong in my talk page anymore... ;) --[[User:GoldenChaos|Jase]] 21:10, 3 January 2007 (CST)
| |
| | |
| == Healing Items ==
| |
| | |
| Could you change Category:Healing Items to Category:Health Restoring Items?--[[User:Herbsewell|Herbsewell]] 13:09, 4 January 2007 (CST)
| |
| : Eh, when I have time... right now, I don't. You can do it yourself, though. Just make the new category and switch the category tag in the articles. --[[User:GoldenChaos|Jase]] 14:22, 4 January 2007 (CST)
| |
| | |
| == Two quick questions ==
| |
| | |
| Should the names of games look like this '''''[[The Legend of Zelda (game)|Legend of Zelda]]''''', or like this ''[[The Legend of Zelda (game)|Legend of Zelda]]''?
| |
| The second question is why do have some articles like [[The Godfather]] that have nothing to do with Nintendo?--[[User:Herbsewell|Herbsewell]] 18:50, 4 January 2007 (CST)
