User talk:NOBODY

Hello reader! Welcome to my talk page, the place where you can talk to me. I read and reply to messages every day, and will reply to you between 6-24 hours of you messaging me. I answer any types of questions people ask me.

Also, please note that I may not answer messages in the morning, as in the morning when I come on the computer, I peek at the recent changes, then begin doing my schooling. During the afternoon, I will answer and read messages only after I finish browsing the recent changes, as I have had a tendency in past years of looking at messages, browsing the recent changes, then forgetting I had a message to answer.

Lastly, please do not ask if I can go on the chat. I personally am very against the chat, as I find some users here spend too much time in it. Also, it is very time consuming and goes against the scope of the Wiki.

Furthermore, if you want to know what time it is where I live, it is :. Numbers before the : from 1-12 are in the morning, while numbers 13-24 are in the afternoon. Click here to refresh the page and see the time change.

Rustyard
Please have a look at the Rustyard Template. I'm trying to revise the pages related to Rustyard and I'm keeping the template as guideline. But I noticed that the template of Rustyard isn't complete as well. More, I'm thinking that the arrow buttons should be listed under buttons and not under blocks and Coloured Buttons and the other one should be listed on the Buttons_Rustyard page and not on the Blocks. Mind having a look and checking what's incomplete. Thanks!  Sim533


 * Alright, I have a look in it tomorrow. First editing avatars now I can access them again by link guessing :)  Sim533

Re: WIP
The wiki is for everybody. Since avatars are new, I decided to not add WIP. Go ahead and add that official source thing - but as all the others everything is official source. Isn't it better then to make it global?  Sim533

RE: Icebreaker news
Thanks! The article was very interesting. I didn't know the people at Nitrome were so depressed. Also, maybe they should restart the work at Super Feed Me from the ground up. 14:29, July 18, 2013 (UTC)

Lazybones!
Look at the page Under Dwell/Quotes! They said that you edit it, but you can do better! Hurry up, you're as slow as a slug-turtle hybred!

Renaming
I can't undo some of the article renames that Magnavox Oddysey Fan made for some reason, and it tells me to ask an admin for help. So, could you help with that? Thanks. --  04:38, July 19, 2013 (UTC)

Public Announcement: New Account Requirement on Nitrome Wiki
preliminary discussion: http://nitrome.wikia.com/wiki/User_blog_comment:SQhi/What%3F!%3F_Anonymous_editing_is_now_blocked_on_Nitrome_Wiki/@comment-SQhi-20130703040630

Hello people, this is SQhi. As we know at the start of July anonymous editing was blocked on Nitrome Wiki network. The purpose of this discussion is to bring the active and prominent users together to inform our readers and followers of this drastic change.

I am sending this message to NOBODY, Santi, Ayernam, Emite, Takeshi and NTPYTO. If you feel that anyone else should be brought into the discussion, please let me know (talk page).

The first three steps I am proposing are as follows.

1. Through Wikinews. I suggest this entry.
 * 21 July - It is now necessary to have a Nitrome Wiki account to edit and comment on Nitrome Wiki and its sister wikis. This is due to changes in US law which does not allow our website to track IP addresses of children. If you would like to gain access to editing, commenting and more, please sign up for an account. You do need to be thirteen or older. official press release

2. Through banner on our Main Page (and/or through SiteNotice)

Dear readers, you now need to sign up for a Wikia account to edit and comment on Nitrome Wiki and its sister wikis. Changes to US law in which our website is hosted prevents us from tracking anonymous contributions from children using IP addresses. IP addresses can be used to approximate the location of internet access of children. official press release

3. The official press release through a blog entry.

Nitrome Wiki congratulates Nitrome on their official launch of Nitrome Profiles.


 * Since 1 July 2013, it is now necessary for all editors and blog commenters on Nitrome Wiki and its sister wikis(Fan Fiction Wiki and Pixel Love Wiki) to have a valid Wikia account.
 * This is because of changes in US legislation which prohibits US-hosted websites from collecting certain information from children including IP addresses. Nitrome Wiki is hosted on US servers.
 * Unfortunately, IP addresses is the means through which our software MediaWiki tracks anonymous contributions, hence, anonymous contributions are disabled.

Revision to COPPA A recent revision to Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) (http://www.ftc.gov/os/fedreg/2013/01/130117coppa.pdf) which came into effect 1 July 2013 does not allows US-based websites from collection of geolocation information from children, such as Internet Protocol addresses (IP). Nitrome Wiki is hosted on a US server and hence has to comply with US laws.

MediaWiki's use of IP MediaWiki tracks all anonymous contributions through the IP which they are posted from. IP is the internet addresses of your gateway to the Internet. This is an important tool for us as it helps us better identify users, and provides us the means to tackle disruptive acts such spamming, vandalism and uncivil behaviour.

IP of registered users are also recorded, though as such users can be easily identified by their username, this IP information is strictly archived. This information will only be accessed by the webmaster only for the investigation of the most severe of disciplinary offences such as sockpuppetry or vote-rigging, which can be carried out through the abuse of multiple accounts.

Risk of tracking through IP IP is also a form of geolocation information. Through tools such as whatismyIP, an individual can find out the geographical location of a child's internet access point, and hence approximate the location of the child in the world. The safety of the child can be further jeopardised if the child reveals personal information.

Blocking of anonymous editing If we were to allow collection of IP information, our webmaster would have to receive parental consent, which would be impractical to do so. We apologise for the inconvenience caused to all, especially to our young readers who are most affected.

Nitrome Wiki recommends that contributors sign up for an account as long as they are no longer children Since there are no restrictions prohibiting the collection of IP from anyone aged 13 and above, anyone above the age of 13 can sign up for an account for free. You only need an email address and your birthday (to verify your age). Your generous contributions will be fully credited to you on the edit history of each page, ascribed to your member-name. You will also gain access to all the privileges of a member, such as the chatroom, your own profile and talk page, ability to create blogs and upload photos and more.

Hi people, thank you for participating in this discussion. Since there is strong support for the wikinews option thus far, I'll get it ready to put it into effect. Before that though, I do need your consent for the official "press release". Thank you. Also, let's do decide together on what other channels to communicate this to our readers and anonymous contributors.

RE:Transfering flash game save data
I'm sorry because, to be honest, I'm pretty short of time right now.

If you have the time, could you give me a brief summary of how you attempted to transfer your saves. Yep, including which files and from which folder. It would better help me determine where you went wrong, and even whether the method no longer works. It's now Nitrome 2.5 after all. SQhi&bull;(talk)Wiki Planner 05:12, July 21, 2013 (UTC)

Hi people, thanks for taking your time to read my proposal. Many of you seem to be fine with the wiki news blog, but since this is for public announcement purposes I do need your approval and consent. Could you look through and see if you agree to the blog content? It is a community affair after all. SQhi&bull;(talk)Wiki Planner 18:28, July 25, 2013 (UTC)

Summer holidays and logo
Hello Nobody! Like past year, I'm going on vacation next tuesday (July 29th), so I already made the logo. http://pbrd.co/1dYmPs6 But it's not definitive because Nitrome could release a flash game this week. Anyway, I won't be here in August (only the last days of the month) and I wanted to let you know. Goodbye! 21:43, July 25, 2013 (UTC)
 * Oh, I forgot to tell you. I will be able to make september's logo, so if they release a game in August, I think we should add it to next month's logo instead. The release of profiles seems as important (or even more important) as the release of a game. 10:24, July 26, 2013 (UTC)


 * Anyway, if you want to make a logo, feel free to make September's one if you want. :D 10:34, July 26, 2013 (UTC)

Background
I think it's time to change the wiki background. What do you think? 11:51, July 28, 2013 (UTC)


 * Hmmm... what about adding the background once the game is released on Android? Knowing Nitrome as well as we do, they could even release Icebreaker in september. 13:25, July 28, 2013 (UTC)

RE:The reason you don't edit
Hello, NOBODY.

I know I used to edit more in past occassions, however, I just prefer to avoid editing here a little bit.

This is because I believe the wiki is fine as it is, and you no longer need my contributions. It's not like it's just because my edits get reverted, but I think that because of them to be getting reverted, I'm doing something wrong.

And yeah, you may probably notice that I don't like to have my edits reverted that much... it makes me feel like I'm always doing something wrong/bad so I'm not sure myself, or that my edits are pointless.

And I know that I haven't been like the other users that contribute a lot, so I apologise for that.

21:16, July 28, 2013 (UTC)


 * The last message helped me understand things quite better. Thanks for that, I just needed to know if I really wasn't needed here.


 * Oh and by the way, with "fine as it is" I guess I meant that the users that were actually most active here were enough to organise all of the articles themselves. But I think that it doesn't matter after all.


 * Oh, and another thing actually. Does the Nitrome Wiki allow british vocabulary? For example, changing "needs" to "has got to have" - is that allowed? Or is it just prefered like the US spelling? Some words as well, like organization and organisation - which is prefered?  22:39, July 28, 2013 (UTC)
 * I think I could. And, okay.  22:53, July 28, 2013 (UTC)
 * It is done now, but I think it needs more basis.  23:13, July 28, 2013 (UTC)

RE: Thanks
No problem! :D --   16:07, July 29, 2013 (UTC)

RE:WIP
Oh yeah, I know very well about that template - but since it was only a small edit I just wrote that on the preceding summary. Now the article may be edited. 23:48, July 29, 2013 (UTC)

Too many templates!
Hey. I've found that this article Ice (Ice Breaker) has got too many disambigunation templates. And I believe some of them should simply be deleted, or.. I don't know. Because of the following reasons: Solution: keeping the one on the top of the article and deleting the rest of them.
 * First of all, on top of the article there is one template which I believe is enough, as it clearly (in my opinion anyway) generalises about the sections it has got.
 * I find it pointles adding a template to the beginning of each section, because of the above reason and also, what the template says can be considered to be wrong - it says "This article is about..." when it appears to be actually a section only.

If you believe it's better to keep the templates however, I would suggest that at least we should create special templates that may read "This section is about..." and use it for the sections only, keeping the top one.

I also thought of bringing it to a blog post or even forums but did not know myself how to qualify the relevance/importance of the topic. 02:44, July 30, 2013 (UTC)

Hello, I just created a infobox for Icebreaker map packs, and because I don't have much experience with Wikicode, it won't work at all. Can you help fix it? 02:19, August 3, 2013 (UTC)

A response
Thanks very much! Well, Mutiny has always been a game I like a lot, so I guess that now that I had completed it it was time to keep up with the edits. And the images thing was something I wanted to do since quite a long time, but eventually I would give up trying. Now I'm going to focus more on the writing part of these enemies articles.

And well, it has been hard... pretty hard indeed. I had to beat the whole game again, because my saves (all, except Colourblind's saves, oddly) were reseted.

And now... it is as if the long games list on my user page had - from one moment to another - been thrown to the rubbish can. How bad, isn't it? Oh well, at least I've been able to re-beat NMD already, as well as some very few games. 04:39, August 3, 2013 (UTC)

RE: Nitrome Wiki account
Do you mean the Nitrome Wiki YouTube account? Sure, you can have access to it. Funny that you asked today, because I was actually deciding to discontinue the BotW series and thinking about other videos we could upload. (Since the BotW videos didn't really work.) Showing how to get avatars could be a great way to attract viewers! Anyway, should I PM you via YouTube for the password? --  20:55, August 4, 2013 (UTC)
 * Oh, so you did mean the Nitrome Wiki Nitrome account. Unfortunately, I didn't create that account, so I don't have access to it.  I guess it's your choice which account you want to upload the videos to, but I don't think it matters as long as the Nitrome Wiki is linked in the description.  Also unfortunately, I didn't create a video for this week because I was going to discontinue the series.  I'm glad you liked them though!  --   21:17, August 4, 2013 (UTC)

Ribbit unofficial names
Hello Nobody! I've got a big doubt about the names of Ribbit's enemies, which is if the fact that their given names are official is true or not. You may view them here.

I believe users around named each enemy themselves, as none of those names is mentioned in the game. Perhaps we should use the unofficial games template, shouldn't we?

I've got to admit that the "Catpiders" name is a creation of mine...

 * Never mind, fixed it. How come you didn't spot that one? :P 20:57, August 9, 2013 (UTC)

Explanation, just in case you want one
I've managed to crack it. So some noob put an open  tag for some strange reason, and for an even stranger reason didn't close it. Now, as you might have noticed, my signature's template is directly transcluded onto my navbar template. The fact that there was an unclosed noinclude at the end of my signature not only stopped the closing  tag being carried with the navbar (making the navbar styling spill out onto the page), but also made sure that the former would be very hard to spot, as the tag was also at the end of the navbar itself; that meant that nothing else apart from that closing tag was left out in the transclusion, causing no visible change to the navbar itself to occur and thereby giving me no clues whatsoever as to what the problem was. Hope you understand; if you don't, this might help. 21:17, August 9, 2013 (UTC)

RE: Great job!
Thanks! Yeah, I was just viewing the Icebreaker iOS template and I knew I had to make an article about my favorite character. :P --  04:15, August 10, 2013 (UTC)

Random
What program do you use for recording the videos you upload on Youtube? I think I'd have to quit using Bandicam, since it generates a text on the top part of the videos, and it is rather annoying.

BTW I almost got an edit conflict with the money page. XD

23:12, August 11, 2013 (UTC)

Uploading new versions of files
If you're uploading a new version of a file, it's normal for the update to not show immediately after you've saved the changes. You just need to wait, and the changes should take place after a few minutes, maybe an hour at most. Sometimes adding ?action=purge to the end of the url should help, but you don't need to keep uploading the same image over and over, and you certainly don't need to upload it under a different name, unless you don't see any changes after a day. 20:22, August 15, 2013 (UTC)


 * It can; it just depends on the cache or the time the system takes to apply the changes to the file in all locations. You can even use the former file name if you like. 20:28, August 15, 2013 (UTC)

Sending a message
Remember that message about removing the Related Videos and Photos modules on the right rail? This one? I logged out of the wiki to see if you removed it (as at the time you made the blog post, I added the CSS to hide it on my personal CSS sheet) and it seems as though you haven't. Did you ever send out that message? 16:40, August 17, 2013 (UTC)


 * Aren't you the one who started composing the email in the first place? You have the message prepared; all you need to do now is copy and paste it into a contact form. Come on, NOBODY, thirty seconds is all you need. Besides, I'm about to send off a message about the Mobile namespace, remember? :D 22:19, August 17, 2013 (UTC)

Logo
Hello Nobody! Just using my mobile phone. Is it a bug, or the logo hasn't been changed? Bye! 09:38, August 18, 2013 (UTC)

RE:Transfering flash game save data
Not really that hard to find. Here's a brief file map which I hope would help you.

Start from your Main Drive, on which your Windows is installed. Normal it would be C:

From there, Go to User> (Your Computer Account Name)> AppData> Roaming> Macromedia> Flash Player> #SharedObjects> (random-jumbled-letters)

Note that AppData is a hidden folder, so you the easy way in is just to type it into the address bar.

Nitrome cookies are at cdn.nitrome.com

cdn for content delivery network when i googled.

I don't really know much about the Fluffball topic, but since it is a somewhat hidden/not new game, I would see a Fluffball logo a bit weird, don't you think so? Bye! 22:44, August 18, 2013 (UTC)

Image Crisis
Great job. I've just noticed the thing you added when someone uploads a photo. That was a clever way to tell people to never forget.

--13:32, August 22, 2013 (UTC)

Regarding: Image Crisis
If a user presses the "Upload Photo" they will see a message not to add fanon. Unless it wasn't you who added that.

By the way, I seem to have a problem on seeing notifications. Whenever someone messages me, I don't see the red ntification.

Forum closed
Hello Nobody! I've closed the forum, but I don't know where the new namespaces can be requested (anyway I'm using my mobile phone and it's hard to navigate the wiki). Can you do it? Meanwhile, I'll start designing the mobile pages. Bye!

Fliptic Wiki
Do we have a new friend wiki? Nice, but, shouldn't it be below "Friend wikis"?

Mobile namespace message
I was going to send one, but I wanted to confirm that the wiki just wanted a custom namespace called "Mobile" and no others (like a Portal namespace). I notice that someone has closed the thread already, so I can't tell if someone else sent out a custom namespace request or not. Sorry I was out for a few days. 00:01, August 25, 2013 (UTC)


 * All right, then I'll send it. 00:56, August 25, 2013 (UTC)

Dear NOBODY...
'Ello, this is AC4E. If you may not have noticed, I finished my comic series NMDFFM. Can it be September's featured article on the Fanfiction wiki please? I worked hard to finish it, with a grand total of 98 episodes. I almost developed arthritis in my spine because of my countless hours working on them. To be honest, I don't think you really care about the things I do, but if you take the time to think about it, you're trying to calculate how many sweat-filled, brainstorming hours it took this gal to finish her endearing series. To be honest, it took me until 6 AM to draw certain scenes in the comics (Y'know the scene where Bennet slaps Safety for being a moron? I doubt it, but that was one of the scenes that took long to draw).

So please, think about it (if there are other people who want their stuff featured, I'd be glad to wait in the hiatus line).

Idea with the logos
Hello Nobody! When I was on vacation, I could check out the Wiki some days with my smartphone, and I noticed the current wiki logo isn't seen correctly with the WikiaMobile skin because it becomes smaller. When I came back to the computer, I asked in the Community forums and found a good idea: with some code, I can change the current logo only with oasis skin. If we do that, the defaut logo will be a bigger one without characters, made for mobile devices, and the monthly logo will be added with MediaWiki codes. What do you think? 14:56, August 31, 2013 (UTC)
 * I've been testing the idea and now it works perfectly. When you use wikiamobile skin or a page is been edited, the bigger and default logo will be seen. 15:24, August 31, 2013 (UTC)

RE:Adminship
I'll tell you what happened: Pjray, RSK and me were on chat. Pjray started to "have lots of ideas". After that, he said he wanted to become an admin, I told him that he didn't need the adminship. I asked him: tell me why you need adminship (a good reason) to help the wiki, and he told me that he wants to manage the wiki, and that he deserves it for editing a lot. Then, I told him that the adminship wasn't an award, and admins aren't better than common users, so if he didn't need admin powers (he said to edit more) or he just wanted to be an admin to look like an important user, he couldn't be an admin. And then he left chat. I think I told him everything correctly, and I didn't use bad words or something like that. 20:20, August 31, 2013 (UTC)

Does anything go beyond gold?
I'm not sure if anyone else has awarded you with this, so allow me to be the first. Why? Well, because, why not? :D

Actually, it's because I wanted to say "goodbye". You are, after all, the first editor I ever spoke to on the wiki, and over the years, I'd say you're probably one of the few editors I've seen change drastically in terms of editing styles. You used to misplace "their" with "there" on a lot of articles and it really irritated me. XD Also, I remember I used to ask a lot of questions on your talk page because I didn't know much. You never really responded to them, and I thought I was bugging you because you responded to other users' messages but not mine. XD I guess I do have to thank you for that, because I learned to be more independent and not depend on a single user for learning everything. Nonetheless, as users who happen to live on the opposite ends of Canada, we saw the wiki grow and thrive. It has changed a lot, because we did great things with it.

But overall, your diligence with keeping up with the wiki has not gone unnoticed. Not by me, anyways. You have shown yourself to be an exemplar editor for the entire wiki. After all, it is the new users who become great contributors that come to you for advice on how the wiki runs.

Judging by my last "leave" post, I know I won't be gone forever, but I can't guarantee anything, so I'll just assume I won't be editing Nitrome Wiki after tomorrow. My plan is to stay focused on editing Nitrome Pixel Love Wiki (if I ever have time to edit), so I'd like to remain an admin there. You can, however, remove the "rollback" rights from my username. I'll remove the admin rights from my userpage tomorrow, since I want to delete some of my user subpages first.

Oh yeah, and don't forget to update MediaWiki:Wiki-navigation when a new game is announced/released. 07:53, September 2, 2013 (UTC)


 * Aw, thanks. I hope I will do well in university. Could you remove my rollback rights from the wiki, please? They're a duplicate of a task admins have. 15:24, September 2, 2013 (UTC)

Request
Just a small one. I'm not guaranteeing that I'll ask for it, but it's more for a "secure" state of mind. If I am to return someday, could I regain my adminship rights by asking for them? 04:28, September 3, 2013 (UTC)

Re: A revision to the avatars template
Hi there, I just did the revision to the Avatar template. It was a hard task because the reward template was made for both unlockable avatars and unlocked avatars on default and above that also for badges. So, welcome 3 new templates on your wiki (which will get documentation soon). Template:Reward is unused and may be deleted if you can do that. This will probably be not the latest revision.

Regarding: Reporting video theft
Well thanks for pointing this out, I already warned him. I noticed that he has also stolen hundreds of ideos uploaded by others without giving them credit. If he doesn't listen to me then I'm sorry that I can't do anything because YouTube asks for my personal infromatio such as address and full name just to report someone. Sorry but YouTube isn't really that good of a company. (Youtube Partners say that too.)

And now, I don't know what to do...

Problem with logos
Hello NOBODY! I think this year I'll have more time to edit here, because I used to be slow at doing my homework and I spent twice the time I should. This year I'm being a lot more organized, so I'm going to have more free time. But that wasn't the topic I wanted to talk about.

The last months, more less since the release of Icebreaker iOS, Nitrome doesn't release many games/features, even releasing one flash game each two months. In July and August, I could make a logo thanks to the profiles and IB iOS, but if Nitrome doesn't release anything on monday (and I doesn't look like it's going to happen), I wouldn't have anything to make next logo. Should we wait until Nitrome releases something instead? Goodbye! 10:26, September 28, 2013 (UTC)

Hello NOFACE!
Hello there Noface, you faceless facetard! I just wanted to stop bye to called you a facetard, facetard! And if you start crying this guy will slap you:

Oh wait, you don't have a face! So cry all you want NOFACE! http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20120927002508/neutronized/images/thumb/d/d1/Sharky!.png/150px-Sharky!.png Grammar Cat    (talk)  16:54, September 28, 2013 (UTC)

Upcoming games
Hey NOBODY, can you update the Upcoming Games wiki nav tab (change Cheese Dreams 2 to Cheese Dreams: New Moon and add Test Subject Arena 2)? --  22:13, October 1, 2013 (UTC)

It looks like he isn't listening to you, he probably has the same problem of not being able to see notifications. Be careful though, he might be the legendary Nitrome Fan 1, creator of Nitrome: The Movie.

I am so jealous...
Did you honestly buy Sothink to have an advantage of hacking into games? Yet your tutorial literally asks us to buy that product even if we have no access to credit cards even if we wanted to help the wiki!

(That sentence felt gramatically wrong...)

But seriously, I would rather not have that tutorial on if it costs money. It costs 3,457.40 in my currency!

Thanks
Wow, I wan't really expecting this, thank you. I once said to myself a long time ago, "I am on the quest to complete all Blast RPG pages." And that's really what made me so interested in that game aside from it resembling a Japanese animation or  an RPG game.

--15:19, October 14, 2013 (UTC)

Still, how are you capable of knowing the value of EXP an enemy in Blast RPG gives?

Logos
Should I make the logo with Icebreaker achievements stuff, or instead I wait for the release of the new flash game? Maybe if I include both in this month's logo, next month I have the same problem. What do you think? 12:45, October 16, 2013 (UTC)

 * Ok, But I do have a gut feeling that Matt is the first one and Jon is the 2nd. Cris might also be the 9th one though. 7th might be Aaron, r probably the 8th. The 8th one looks like Giuseppe but actually Skywire VIP came before they hired him. 8th one might also be John Kennedy. Stefan Ählin looks nowhere to be found there. But that's just my guess, I stil could be wrong. But I am sure that Matt is the 1st one.

Spotlight Request
Hi. Nitrome Wiki looks good and I've added it to the approved spotlight list.

If you wish to choose an image, then please post it on your original spotlight request, along with any suggested text. There are no dimension requirements -- Wikia will create the spotlight from the image you provide. There is no need to have the wiki name be part of the image -- a graphic is usually more powerful. Don't feel that you have to choose one - we can also pick one out for you. -- Wendy (talk ) 12:25, October 23, 2013 (UTC)

RE: Star Tokens
Yes, I do intend to finish it if I can (planning on doing it today). As far as actively editing goes, I try to edit here whenever I get the chance (which is often only on Fridays), but High School has been swarming me with homework lately. I wish I could edit as much as I used to.

15:02, October 25, 2013 (UTC)
 * Thanks, I like to write about things aside from the regular old game articles. I think that since this is a wiki about Nitrome, everything deserves an article.


 * Oops, I didn't know that Top Tens were allowed. I'll revert my edit and remove my message from his talk page. I do know what namespaces are (such as the page I am writing on right now's name space is User_talk:), I just didn't realize how different pages were allowed in different namespaces, so thanks for clearing that up. I think Nitrome dg might be the first user to create pages for Top Tens, although I'd have to check (not including community stuff such as BotW).

RE: The Beta Project
Hi NOBODY! This is very exciting! A secret domain, you say? However, it's also a bit controversial. I think we should create a forum on whether or not we should write articles on these beta pages, as some members of the community might not agree with it. Plus, there is a risk that Nitrome will shut down the domain if they see all of this beta content being released, as they did with the recent one.

Nevertheless, if it is accepted, I would be most interested in writing about the pages. Feel free to email me with the links, and I will see what I can do. Also, could you perhaps email me an example article so that I know how to write these?

Thanks,  02:24, November 25, 2013 (UTC)


 * Message received. Thanks a bunch!  Most of the games seem to be exactly the same as their released versions, except for minor features.  Nonetheless, there are also quite a few that are really interesting!  Thanks for the sample article as well.  Perhaps we should split the work between us and/or the community?  I'll create a forum for it.  --   20:46, November 26, 2013 (UTC)

Thank you very much for giving me this award !!! Actually I am not finished with the Tiny castle articles, I have file with 70 pictures that I have posted or that I need to post, maybe less... And I have more bugs to add to the "Glitches" section, I did not know that you can discover so many bugs by taking screenshots and editing pictures ! Thanks again !!!

A bit of grammar
Hi NOBODY! You're right, themself is not a word in the English language. But when speaking in terms of the player, themselves is not correct either. This is because "player" is singular and "themselves" is plural. Therefore, in order to address the player using a reflexive pronoun (one which refers back to the subject), you must use the third person singular, that being "himself/herself". --  16:22, November 29, 2013 (UTC)


 * That's really a moot point, considering we use the pronoun "they" when referring to the player anyways, and using he/she also has its issues (who comes first?). It's not the most grammatically correct, bu using "they" as a pronoun for the player at least keeps it more gender neutral. The only workaround I can suggest is referring to a group of players rather than just one. Or, in the case of that Gunbrick glitch, focus more on the character of the game. (Players don't shoot themselves down.) 17:27, November 29, 2013 (UTC)


 * Yeah, we should stick to the character as much as possible. Using "they" is gender neutral, but it still doesn't match the word "player" in terms of syntax.  Perhaps we should refer to players in the plural in cases like these.  --   00:33, November 30, 2013 (UTC)

A bit of testing
When you edited the pick ups page (of Tiny Castle), you wrote that turkey restores 2 life. I tested all of the pick ups at 1 life only and saw that all of the food heals 1 life, even the turkey. I also tested the points:
 * All of the food gives no points
 * The golden coins gives 10 points
 * The orange gems gives 50 points
 * The bags of money gives 100 points

RE:Facebook page
I saw it yesterday and I thought about deleting it, but I saw he was arabic, so maybe he doesn't speak English. I think we could ignore it and, if he spams again, delete the comment.

RE:Editing
Hey NOBODY! Thanks for asking. The main reason is just that I don't play much Nitrome anymore, which led to not editing as much. The only video game I really play right now is League of Legends, and I'm pretty into it. I will try to edit some more, but it's unlikely that I will ever go back to editing as much as I used to.

Woop I'm back
Got a final exam on Thursday, but after that, I'm pretty much free for the rest of the month. It's time to return and take my rightful place on the throne do what I do best: annoying users with the talk of verifiability and proper referencing. Or maybe not. :D

I noticed the icons in Template:Icons have been affected by a recent change Wikia implemented. It causes our lovely icons used for featured articles and Touchy compatible games to be partially hidden by three giant "share" icons. It's a bit of a nuisance, but it might be fixable by changing around some code in CSS.

Knowing you, the request of asking you to go and make these adjustments would most likely lead to a "Sure" that never gets carried out. Plus, you probably have some other project in mind that needs to get done. Thus opens the request, hinted in the worst subtle way possible. No, I'm not trying to boot out the other RFAs by the way; I'll be dormant by the end of the first week in January, starting up the spring term. 07:15, December 10, 2013 (UTC)

Congratulations on 30,000 edits here on Nitrome Wiki!

Okay, I feel really guilty asking for this, but since I'm off uni for the next few weeks, may I request my admin rights back? Kfwlaekfjewa I realize it was selfish (in a sort of way) to keep whining about how poor my contributions were - and I see a lot of "behind the scenes" work that probably isn't in your focus area at the moment. You did say here that I could receive admin access upon request, even should they only be until January, when I go back to school.

According to Forum:Can the April Fool's images stay?, the agreement was to move the page over to the fanfiction wiki. Otherwise, you could just preserve the page in its entirety without linking anything. 16:35, December 16, 2013 (UTC)


 * Did you try importing the page to Nitrome Fanfiction Wiki? The import tool makes it a lot easier to transfer pages from one wiki to another. It's not a lot of work to do so, if that's your big concern.


 * Wait...you're talking about the columns for the main page, right? Yeah, that could be an issue. But I'm not keen on using links to the images just for the April Fool's page. That's not really "using" the images. 20:42, December 16, 2013 (UTC)

There are already so many years since I contributed msyelf to the first Nitrome x-mas story that gained so much popularity?

I just re-read it,as well as a few others,getting some nostalgia.

Should we make a 3rd one,dirrectly on the Nitrome wiki (its a story for Nitrome wiki not NFF wiki).Maybe just us,and a few old users like TNY,Santi,TCG,Axiy,Lilo,and obviosly,we can not exclude the new contribuitors that would love! to join our wikis xmas tradition!

Maybe a blog post?

Also since X-mas is so nearby,maybe we should extend the story to:

SQhi?
So SQhi is the new admin now? Only one comment... he's been inactive lately. Shouldn't we have waited until he is active again?

Overlapping definitions
Who said that an obstacle isn't harmful, or that interactive objects, by definition, have to be beneficial to the player? Or that hazards cannot be enemies? An obstacle just prevents progress or the character from passing through. It does not have to be harmless; in fact, an enemy in Skywire could technically be considered an obstacle if the cable car couldn't pass through it. I would also argue that enemies are a more specific categorization of hazards since they are "potentially dangerous" and that hazards are a specific type of interactive object - one that harms the player. Some categorizations for these objects can overlap (ex. Water in Bomba is both hazardous but can be used to float bombs). 00:49, December 30, 2013 (UTC)


 * Well yes and no. Think of it like the "General" section in game navbox templates: characters and games tend to go in this section, right? Everything could be considered "general", since this categorization encompasses the overall components found within a game. Of course we could put every article relating to the game into this "General" category, but that would make the template appear disorganized and quite daunting to navigate. Many of these links can be separated into more specific categories, like "Hazards" to define the general links that cause harm. For categories, the general rule of thumb on this wiki right now is to only use the most specific type of category to tag a components article with. Of course, this doesn't really apply to games and their genres at the moment, just components. We probably don't want to play around with moving categories a lot until we can get a bot.


 * If a hazard harms "the player", is this not a form of interaction? To interact means to have an effect on something. Hazards interact with the player by harming them, usually on contact. This harm is an effect that results with the player (or their character, pardon me) interacting with this "object".


 * Using "obstacles" as a categorization requires a different definition altogether. Obstacles should be entities that hinder or prevent progress. Some obstacles can be hazardous. Some are more interactive. I'd say obstacles can also be considered interactive objects in some cases because there is an interaction between the character and the obstacle. The player cannot pass through an obstacle, and this is considered an effect. In some cases, obstacles, at the same time, cause harm to the playable character. Yes, that makes them hazards, but also obstacles.


 * I'm not certain if we want to use these overlapping characteristics to categorize and just go with a guideline like "all pages are only categorized by their most specific category". What this idea of overlaying these types is that it allows for some quick explanations, such as:


 * An interactive object is an entity that can have a direct or indirect effect on the player
 * A hazard is an interactive object that causes harm or potential harm to the player
 * An obstacle is an interactive object that is specifically designed to prevent the player from passing through it.
 * An enemy is a life-like hazard that is capable of attacking the player.


 * Just a rough sketch, but that's the idea. Rather than having to redefine the terms, define one term using a previous term. I wasn't planning on using this to categorize all hazards with interactive objects by the way, but more for the purpose of having some form of viable explanation for components of games that kind of waver between the strict definitions of hazards and interactive objects, for example. 07:55, December 30, 2013 (UTC)

Re: Categories
Oh thanks aa lot, NOBODY ;) What can I do with the categories I added? Must I delete them? And, if I must delete them, how do I delete them? Superyoshibros20 (talk) 09:06, December 30, 2013 (UTC)

Hyphens & links on desambiguations
Hello, NOBODY. Are we now meant to use simple commas and categories without links, on desambiguation pages? I'm confused as for this edit, where it seems that everything's been simply replaced. I'm just asking, as I'll be working with these kinds of articles. 15:19, December 30, 2013 (UTC)
