Adoption
I voted for the adoption when I saw you're message to Takeshi64. Also, could you vote for me in my RFA? 15:09, April 19, 2012 (UTC)

RE: Using external images
I know what you mean that everyone's edit show up as having added a picture, but I don't know how to use external images. I think that I will just take off the pictures, at least until I know how to use them. Also, I answered the question you put on my RFA and also, I will make an edit on the Spanish Nitrome Wiki to that my vote will count.17:21, April 19, 2012 (UTC)

Ummm...
Just wondering, do you know that you are in the chat with me? 18:45, April 19, 2012 (UTC)

Logo Time!
This is my competed logo. If there's anything that you think i should change tell me. The logo features Cave Chaos 2 and Gunbrick.

RE:Hot Air Series
Apologies for the late reply. I had a busy schedule this week.SQhi

According to the Oxford English Dictionary


 * 1 [mass noun] the action or process of receiving something sent, given, or inflicted:sensation is not the passive reception of stimuli
 * [count noun] the way in which a person or group of people reacts to someone or something:the election budget got a stony reception in the City

We extract information about reception to Nitrome games from primary and secondary sources, quantitative and qualitative sources.(shalln't explain unless requested)

I'll consider Wikipedia to be my gold standard.

Good Article Example: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Braid_(video_game)#Reception

Featured Article Example: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Age_of_Mythology#ReceptionIf

wikipedians go to such lengths to create that section obviously it holds importance to the encyclopedia.

Note the numerous citations.game rankings. reviewsand subsequent comments, on various components of the games. Awards. research. link to soundtrack. sales volume.

what else can we look for(in addition to those wikipedia relies on)? the game rank on the page. The shares for the games, thumbs up thumbs down on hosting sites. fb page, fan base. player reviews, further broken down my components. If possible, interviews(we don't have enough clout at the moment). We have more than enough on hand to add the reception section for many Nitrome games.

I do feel this is worth discussing about.In the meantime, let's get our act together for projectrevise, nav box colouring. Let's get our basics right first.SQhi 12:32, April 20, 2012 (UTC)

Boss?
Could you post a picture of the boss? If you beat the boss level, you can't come back to it, so please post a picture of it before you beat it. I would do it myself, but I'm stuck on level 2. 16:56, April 20, 2012 (UTC) Thanks! 17:08, April 20, 2012 (UTC)

Untitled
Thanks for that. I'm new to wikia, so I assumed that wikipaedia was part of wikia and so I followed instructions from there. I only realised the instructions were wrong when it told me to go to "My Settings", which I could not find. So anyway, thanks for showing me how to do it.

RFAs
Wait another week, then close them all, as they have all been up for less than a week. -- 19:39, April 21, 2012 (UTC)

Logo
Oh,Okay then! What about This!

Logo
Sure! I would Love that!

:O
Oh... Well, if that doesn't work then, okay, whatever. I can live without it. But it would have been kinda neat. But I would still like to know how to make the edit button take someone to a different page. That would be like protecting it without protecting it.19:56, April 25, 2012 (UTC)

Cool!
Takeshi64 just created a new page, and I saw the icon! It looks pretty good! I wish I could do as much code as you.19:58, April 25, 2012 (UTC)

Hmmm.
About the login thing, I thought you might be right. But just to see, I tried it again, and it does the same thing. Go to this link, and click the edit button, then watch. User:Bluefire2/wikia.css20:12, April 25, 2012 (UTC)

Move Wiki Activity
- There. That could be the icon for moving a page in Wiki Activity. I modeled it after Movable Boxes. I made it the same dimensions as the talk icon. I will try to make the Category one.

00:47, April 26, 2012 (UTC)

css
The edit icon is good!14:36, April 26, 2012 (UTC)

Is this good?
I had an idea... I used it here to test it out. Do you like it?

00:35, April 27, 2012 (UTC)

Sure
NTPYTO had the same idea. I've already started creating the blueboy image, it'll be ready in a bit. Feel free to use the coding, although it may be an inter-wiki thing you can't change (Maybe there's a MediaWiki for it).

20:36, April 27, 2012 (UTC)

Changes
The changes are awesome! They look better than the usual wikia images. -- 21:12, April 27, 2012 (UTC)

Modifying image size in url
I can't modify this. I read your earlier message about editing the size of images in the url code, but it never works. Does it only work in the code on the wiki and not when you type it in in code?

22:54, April 27, 2012 (UTC)

Yes, I did modify the image location, but instead of typing 3c, I typed 4f. Anyway, I'll be sure to try it again, next time I need to do it. Thanks!

P.S. How did you find out I wanted it in 120px? Did you check the history of my signature page?

10:55, April 28, 2012 (UTC)

RE:Hiliting your name
I know I'm allowed to change my highlighted username, except that I couldn't figure out how :/. Believe me, I would really like to remember all those codes, but not matter how many times I look up the stuff like that, I can never remember quite exactly how it goes.

Also, I have actually only been gone since last Saturday, because I haven't been able to edit during the week due to sports and school. I try to edit every weekend (friday and saturday) but i have been spending much time on the Lego Star Wars wiki.

Thanks, 17:54, April 28, 2012 (UTC)

Okay, thanks! Sorry to be a pain. -- 18:06, April 28, 2012 (UTC)

RFB
Let's do it like RSW does - instead of calling it what you said, call it Nitrome:RFA/Santiago Gonzales Martin (bureaucrat). Eh? 17:14, April 30, 2012 (UTC)

Bureaucrat rights
Santi, I'm afraid you don't quite understand how much the wiki needs you as bureaucrat. Couldn't you help out here and run the spanish wiki at the same time? 12:08, May 2, 2012 (UTC)
 * Oh :O :D 12:23, May 2, 2012 (UTC)

RE:
Oh sorry; I renamed Template:Vid to Template:Vid walkthrough, and I was going around replacing with  on pages, using the Notepad replace function cuz I was lazy. Unluckily, I forgot that Notepad doesn't support non-english symbols. So, after copypasting it into Notepad and back, I guess the symbols vanished D: Sorry for that; I forgot :O 13:21, May 3, 2012 (UTC)

Congratulations!
Congratulations Santi on adopting the wiki! -- 22:09, May 5, 2012 (UTC)
 * Gratz from meh too :D 06:11, May 6, 2012 (UTC)

Vote!
Hi Santi! Remember this topic? Well, I've proposed to close it and place the rules in the policy. It would be great if go and vote for it to be closed so I can place the rules in the policy. Thanks! However, remember I'm not forcing you to vote for it to be closed, I thought I'd just notify you that I want to close it and want you to vote for it so the voting isn't extended for a week. -- 21:48, May 8, 2012 (UTC)


 * I mean vote for it to be closed so I can place the rules in the policy. -- 12:56, May 9, 2012 (UTC)

irrelevant sysop protection
Hi Santi, could you take the trouble to un-protect this template? Template:Stub

This is an old relic left behind dating back to the Crystal era.

RE: appearances
okay, I will undo it. I was just trying to fix them for Revise 2, but if you think it looks good before, I will undo it. 15:51, May 10, 2012 (UTC)

I BEAT GUNBRICK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
YEAH! This is amazing! I finally beat the boss! I figured out a few tricks to beat him, and on my last try I hit him all 10 times without being hit myself. Once you learn the trick it is easy. Even NOBODY's video on the gunbrick page doesn't compare. If I can figure out how to make videos with my computer, I will put the video on the gunbrick page. 19:38, May 10, 2012 (UTC)
 * Oh, I almost forgot to tell you, what with beating the boss and all, but the voting templates look good! I tried one out on my sandbox. 19:44, May 10, 2012 (UTC)
 * Hey, you want to see something funny? Click the I beat gunbrick section on your messages template, then look at the taskbar.19:45, May 10, 2012 (UTC)
 * Okay, Cya. 19:50, May 10, 2012 (UTC)

Coding
SQhi added the category "Templates" to several templates. This turned out to be a problem. The pages on which the templates were added were in the category too. I put them (the category codes) under the noinclude tags, but they still appeared on pages. Should I remove the coding for now?

01:16, May 11, 2012 (UTC)

Infoboxes on recurring objects
So I was browsing another Wiki the other day, and they too also had to deal with characters that had different appearances depending on where they come from. However, instead of putting it in a gallery, or the template we are currently using, they used something else that I should have thought of eons ago: tabber! I look at it and think, "That's crazy! There has to be a reason why we didn't try this yet." I go to my sandbox, copy the infobox from a random character page and input tabber. It actually works quite nicely (see my sandbox, I put in some random gibberish to show what it looks like against text. :P) and users would be able to easily switch between appearances - within the infobox. The only limitation is that if we put in long names, it might break up the text a bit. But we can put in abbreviations like it already has in the infobox, and I think that will suffice.

I can't remember who thought of the idea to put in the template we currently have (which I'm not at all saying is a bad idea), but I thought this might be an easier way to compare them at hand. It sounds like something you would do though, so I just wanted to know what you think of it. Oh, and also, I was looking through the logs, and noticed that you are now a bureaucrat! Congrats on your new powers (xD) and I wish you all the best as you continue to look after this Wiki. 06:09, May 11, 2012 (UTC)


 * I thought you were the one who said not to use user elements on mainspace pages! Anyway, I can't deny it's a good idea, but I think the style of tabber is departing from our usual style, in terms of the wiki info stuff.(infoboxes, management templates, etc.) Also, I thoroughly agree with your sentiments about Santi becoming a b-crat.


 * 10:13, May 11, 2012 (UTC)


 * That's not exactly a "user element". There are quite a few Wikis out there who use tabber on mainspace pages. It's not really the element, but how people use it that defines whether it belongs on the mainspace or not. And now I am drawing a blank to when I said that. I'm not too certain what you mean by "departing from our usual style", though. What style is there when it comes to just adding pictures in infoboxes? I won't put this up for suggestion until a much later time, probably, but I just thought it's something we should have considered when we were going through that forum proposal. (This is directed at both Santi and Takehi64.) 16:19, May 11, 2012 (UTC)


 * I just thought the font and color of the tabs were a bit odd. Objects aren't defined by how they're used, though. People can use things in a ton of different ways, and we have to avoid the stereotype of how we think they're always used, in order to apply them to other things. In any event, I think we should add these to the mainspace. We need a system for clarifying what issues are large enough to have a forum topic, and which can automatically be added. We need to reach a good decision as quickly as possible, for time's sake. The longer we discuss it, the more time we could be using it (if it's an asset to helping build pages).

 * We can use the voting thing, it looks really good! -- 14:22, May 12, 2012 (UTC)

RE:
Not really, now that you're bureaucrat. 17:26, May 12, 2012 (UTC)


 * Oh please. They knew about the whole thing beforehand. Remember, we're not cancelling them because the users are bad candidates. 17:34, May 12, 2012 (UTC)


 * Yes, and then when RFAs open again the users can just make a new one. 18:03, May 12, 2012 (UTC)


 * Okay, back to basics, isn't the reason we suspended the RFAs in the frist place because NOBODY was not in a good position to close Takeshi's RFA? Since we have a second bureaucrat now, shouln't it be high time to close the suspended RFAs? The RFAs has already been discussed extensively by the community and has dragged on for far too long. I do even feel that the community is getting tired of the promotion process. CC: Santi SQhi&bull;(talk) 15:09, May 13, 2012 (UTC)


 * Now that the RFAs are closed, shoudn't the RFAs be evaluated? It seems like Bluefire is IC of the promotion process now...SQhi&bull;(talk) 15:15, May 13, 2012 (UTC)


 * It does matter. When RSK became a less active admin, we started the RFAs to promote a(or more?) users to adminship, so as to take up the slack. Now, what we ended up doing was promoting you to bureaucratship, so instead of having someone on board to take up the workload, we have you as another bureaucrat who can close discussions. SQhi&bull;(talk) 15:27, May 13, 2012 (UTC)


 * Thanks for your concern. =) If you would peek a look at Bluefire's talk page... =D SQhi&bull;(talk) 15:36, May 13, 2012 (UTC)

Okey dokey
Okay! I like! I was planning on doing it (but never got around to it, obviously). I think there should also be a "neutral" icon for neutral points made during discussions as well. It seems to not be on the template at the moment. 05:24, May 15, 2012 (UTC)
