br clear is awesome
OK, so before now I just thought you were pretty great. But now, you are my absolute hero! I'm such a dummy when it comes to HTML, but this:
<br clear="all" />
is a godsend! Thankyou, I will now proceed to use this everywhere (but never to claim that I discovered it) :) --Adam (talk) 10:41, 20 January 2008 (EST)
- Ha ha... I found that earlier. I just dismissed it as a useless chunk of code, but after really looking at it I was like "no way. Surely it doesn't do that." Sure enough, it does. :P It's a fantastic little piece of code. Much better than typing <br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br> etc. Ando 10:46, 20 January 2008 (EST)
- Not only that, but <br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br> doesn't actually work very well anyway, since it defines a specific number of lines. I have a widescreen monitor, so it would format the page completely differently to someone else using a different screen resolution. I had exactly the same reaction as you when I realised what <br clear="all" /> does. What a discovery!! --Adam (talk) 11:04, 20 January 2008 (EST)
Craziness
Its like good or something you like http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=mint
Its manchester slang and im from manchesterZanramon
it was my little bro he goes on the computer every so often--Zanramon 11:50, 2 March 2008 (EST)
Did you only come on the wiki in january ive been here since november and you've nearly done as much edits of me--Zanramon 18:00, 7 March 2008 (EST)
- Yeah, I've been here since January. I'm, uh... sorry that I've made so many edits? :P --Ando (Talk) 20:31, 7 March 2008 (EST)
no i did't mean it like that
And also Majora's Mask
You've completely finished MM? I've finished it like 99.9% I just can't find ONE heart container
--Yuvorias, 20:30, 30 May 2008 (EST)
- Aye, I have finished it. Well, it's my favorite game of all time, so can you really expect me not to? :P Yeah, some of the heart containers can be really annoying to find. I'd offer help, but it could be any one of the 52. :/ --Ando (T : C) 07:36, 30 March 2008 (EDT)
Sorry
I thought the "& problem" only applies to images. O_O I was wrong. Sorry.--Green 16:20, 30 March 2008 (EDT)
Thanks
I just signed up a while ago, and the Pedestal of Time was the first thing I ever nominated on this site, or actually any site. Thanks for supporting my article :)
--Seablue254 17:15, 2 April 2008 (EDT)
- Hey, no problem. It's a good article, and you made a good choice (unlike, unfortunately, many other nominated articles). --Ando (T : C) 17:21, 2 April 2008 (EDT)
cough minda cough--Zanramon ( ' .' ) look its kirby ['_>'] 17:40, 2 April 2008 (EDT)
- I... what? Midna was never nominated for featured article status... Unless you're talking about the picture of Midna? Which would still be confusing because that's a pretty good picture. --Ando (T : C) 17:47, 2 April 2008 (EDT)
I was just wondering, would you like to be friends? --Seablue254 15:37, 3 April 2008 (EDT)
Actually it was, and I nominated it :p. Anyway, congrats on becoming a sysop, you deserved the postition, good luck.--Link hero of light 18:59, 3 April 2008 (EDT)
Yeah, you definitely deserve it, and I wish you luck with it! --Seablue254 19:26, 3 April 2008 (EDT)
- Wait, seriously? It's not in the Failed Nominations listing. :O
- Anyway, thanks, both of you. Much appreciated. --Ando (T : C) 19:28, 3 April 2008 (EDT)
Because it never failed. It only got one vote in like, one or two months so I removed it seeing it's probaly not going to be featured. But I don't know why Zanramon said it was bad, I thought it was good. But that's just my opinion, maybe he's not the only one who thinks it was bad. After all, only one person voted for it.--Link hero of light 19:34, 3 April 2008 (EDT) i didn,t say it was made just not good enough to be featured--Zanramon ( ' .' ) look its kirby ['_>'] 16:27, 4 April 2008 (EDT)
Oh my god. I can't believe my eyes. My first ever nominated article and it's already on as the featured article. Yes! This is unbelieveable! I actually didn't think it would happen. Wow. Thanks for voting! --David (T : C) 07:59, 6 April 2008 (EDT)
Congrats!
The ZW.org staff has nominated you to become a sysop. Do you accept the position? ;) --Jase 07:43, 3 April 2008 (EDT)
- Oh, shoot... Was not expecting this. Craziness. :O
- I do accept, sir. I do. Few things I enjoy more than helping the greatest Zelda resource on the Web become more awesome. :D --Ando (T : C) 12:33, 3 April 2008 (EDT)
- It. Is. Done! Alright sir; now I should need your email so that I may email something to you. --Jase 21:46, 3 April 2008 (EDT)
- AWESOME. Thanks much, all. As for email, mine is kaoskastle(at)gmail.com. --Ando (T : C) 22:20, 3 April 2008 (EDT)
- Congrats to you, from me. --Sheik-Yumil1988 10:54, 4 April 2008 (EDT)
good for u congradulations--Zanramon ( ' .' ) look its kirby ['_>'] 16:28, 4 April 2008 (EDT)
- Yo, belated congratulationals ;) Since you've basically been doing what's expected of a sysop for months now, it seemed a natural step to include you in the team. Beware, it can be dull !
- At least now I have someone to share the workload with, on which note; I see you've started patrolling some articles - how would you like to divide the chore between us? I guess we could both just pick away at it piecemeal, but that wouldn't work if we're both online at once. Or if you wanted to be all formalised, we could have a rota to alternate days? Let me know (or tell me if I've scared you off the task altogether ;)
- Cheers —Adam (talk) 04:18, 6 April 2008 (EDT)
Manga
I got your message. Thanks for the update, I'll be sure to keep an eye out! --Yuvorias
Can you help?
Ever since Jase uploaded new software today, I've been getting problems with seeing newly written things. For example when I asked the question to Jase and put it on The Heart Container, the only things I could see were the first things that I wrote on either place. The only way I can see newly written responses or anything are by editing the question. Do you have a way to solve this, or will I need to make a new account? --David (T : C) 16:01, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
Wow, that little piece of text on you're user page about me and Douken is funny (and i mean that in a good way). I guess that since i'm running safari on a vista, it may have different cache settings then yours (I think you said somewhere it was Firefox?) Anyway, thanks for helping :) --David (T : C) 18:18, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
- Haha... Glad you were able to get it fixed. Guess we know what to do if this ever happens again. --Ando (T : C) 18:22, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
Main Page Fixins
wow my user page went evil i mest with the codes like you said--Zanramon ( ' .' ) look its kirby ['_>'] 21:03, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
oh good you sorted it
- There... there's a difference between editing the source code a little bit to figure out the problem and widening the whole danged page to several trillion percent its normal size. It isn't a width-of-the-page problem, more of a something's-wrong-with-the-inside-of-that-particular-section. I take it you're having the same issue that others have had regarding the Featured Picture bar overlapping the picture? --Ando (T : C) 21:06, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
yea
Guys, I fixed it, Check sandbox--Magnus orion 21:13, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
- Aye, I edited the main page. Does it display correctly on your monitors? If so, then it sounds like we have a successful fix (thanks to our good buddy Magnus :D). --Ando (T : C) 21:14, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
Hey, Thanks
Thanks for editing my other uploaded picture. It seems that I am such a dummy when it comes to these templates! ;) --David (T : C) 19:05, 7 April 2008 (UTC)
- No problem. I edited that template's page with instructions on how to use it, so as long as you learn that, we should be good. ;) --Ando (T : C) 19:25, 7 April 2008 (UTC)
Whoa, hang on! Nothing to apologize for. We've all made mistakes and "bad edits". Your good edits have vastly outweighed your "bad" ones, so I'd say that it's nothing to worry about. --Ando (T) 05:36, 12 April 2008 (UTC)
Ok --David (T : C) 15:47, 12 April 2008 (UTC)
That's not fair!
I see that you and Adam have agreed to alternate the work on an alternating day basis. But with the other 12 bureaucrats on the site and other 4 sysops, you guys should only have to work once about every 2 weeks, considering everyone takes the workload on your alternating day basis. Shouldn't the other bureaucrats/sysops work to help, or are they so important they can just leave the work to you guys? --David (T : C) 19:49, 8 April 2008 (UTC)
- Thanks for your concern. :P I think the primary reason it was decided between us was that we're the two most active sysops (or, at least we were at the time; a couple more admins have been slowly increasing their time here). The others never really said "Okay, YOU GUYS are doing this while we go hang out elsewhere". We decided on our own. Plus, you've got to remember, a lot of the bureaucrats also have their own sites to maintain as well, so you can't really blame them for not doing the work-that-takes-quite-some-time-to-do. --Ando (T : C) 20:48, 8 April 2008 (UTC)
Yeah, thats true. It just didn't seem fair that there were all these other people here and you two are the only ones doing the work. At least you got other people here that do some edits, like me and Link hero of light. --David (T : C) 22:36, 8 April 2008 (UTC)
- True enough, sir! And without the people who edit pages, where would we be, right? --Ando (T : C) 22:46, 8 April 2008 (UTC)
yea--Zanramon ( ' .' ) look its kirby ['_>'] 20:52, 9 April 2008 (UTC)
Am I allowed?
Am I allowed to add videos to my user page? I asked Jason the question and haven't gotten a reply from him yet. --David (T : C) 20:36, 12 April 2008 (UTC)
- I'd say that as long as you don't go overboard (one, maybe two videos, with links to a couple more if needed), it should be okay. --Ando (T) 01:43, 13 April 2008 (UTC)
Ok :) --David (T : C) 13:38, 13 April 2008 (UTC)
Hey
How can you figure out all the edits i did to fix them? Do you watch my user contributions page? Or do you just sit around the recent changes list just waiting for something to happen? --David (T : C) 19:40, 14 April 2008 (UTC)
- Several of us patrol the recent changes page, watching for all the new changes. And... that's about it. :P --Ando (T) 01:35, 15 April 2008 (UTC)
Ok. Cool. And lastly, (this may be a bit of a personal question...) I was wondering if you are American, out of sheer curiosity. If you are, Ihave this great template you can user (which you actually edited.) It's {{user US}}. Just wondering. --David (T : C) 19:05, 15 April 2008 (UTC)
- Yup, I do in fact live in the US. I guess that I could be bothered to update my user page with a few new userboxes. --Ando (T) 02:25, 16 April 2008 (UTC)
Wow! I didn't know that you lived in Tennessee! Wow, I thought your were near me, over here in New York! Cool! --David (T : C) 19:42, 16 April 2008 (UTC)
P.S. I'm actually taking a vacation to Tennessee this summer :)
Useful program
Hey, i found this. I suggest all of us who want to communicate quickly use it. When you install it, try going to moznet then type /join #Zeldawiki. Since it's a free chat program, we can use our usernames as nicknames, considering nobody has it, and talk in real time. --David (T : C) 13:46, 19 April 2008 (UTC).
- Yeah, I saw that. Nice. :D I've got it installed and running. Thanks for the link. --Ando (T) 19:38, 19 April 2008 (UTC)
No problem. It's amazing to see a channel i made this morning become an official channel quickly! --David (T : C) 22:02, 19 April 2008 (UTC)
Ouch
You were throwing up, ouch! Feeling better? --David (T : C) 22:08, 19 April 2008 (UTC)
- Yeah, thanks. :D Due to the circumstances involving the sickness, it might become a sort of habit for me, but we're working to prevent that. But if there's times where I'm not around for days, well, that's why. ;) --Ando (T) 04:05, 20 April 2008 (UTC)
What virus/disease did you get? --David (T : C) 12:50, 20 April 2008 (UTC)
- Well, actually, it's like some tumor or something (they can't tell what it is! GO FIGURE) that's spawned on a nerve which, theoretically, MAY affect certain stomach functions, and as a result might be causing the nausea. Maybe. But I'll stop before this turns into a whiny emo blog. :P It's really nothing to concern anyone with; it's been this way for two months or so, and it'll go away when it feels like it I suppose. --Ando (T) 15:59, 20 April 2008 (UTC)
Hmm. Weird, well, good luck! --David (T : C) 17:02, 20 April 2008 (UTC)
Zelda Universe
Are you signed up to Zelda Universe? --David (T : C) 23:30, 20 April 2008 (UTC)
- I am indeed. --Ando (T) 00:03, 21 April 2008 (UTC)
Do you have ftp access? --David (T : C) 19:17, 21 April 2008 (UTC)--David (T : C) 19:17, 21 April 2008 (UTC)
No, here. --David (T : C) 20:13, 21 April 2008 (UTC)
- Oh, no. I think that Jason might be the only one with FTP access. Why do you ask? --Ando (T) 20:19, 21 April 2008 (UTC)
On the site, we're trying to find Jason so that he can get a web chat up for the IRC (shhhhhhh):). If you enter right now, you can talk to Capn and EA. --David (T : C) 20:22, 21 April 2008 (UTC)
Section 17
Thanks for the advice Ando , Robeluke
Thanks for deleting that. --David (T : C) 15:45, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
- No probalo. I had never seen it before, so it's good you pointed it out; I'm not really sure how it passed when it was uploaded. --Ando (T) 16:26, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
Friend Code
Hey, got the game, here it is: 3866-7007-9200 --David (T : C) 20:21, 23 April 2008
Just wanted you to know, i can give you your fight today or during the weekend. However, i'm gonna have to find my (missing) DS Lite. Anyway, as soon as i find it, ill let you know. --Seablue254 19:20, 2 May 2008 (UTC)
- UM. O... kay. Maybe. I'm not free tomorrow... Sunday, though, I believe is open. And... yup. I'll get you my friend code before hand, though. --Ando (T) 23:08, 2 May 2008 (UTC)
- No need to give me the code. You have already given it to me. Even better, i found the DS. I'll take you on right now, if you feel like it. Just come into #zeldawiki and i'll connect into wi-fi --Seablue254 23:15, 2 May 2008 (UTC)
Oh! I did give you the code, didn't I? Well, I can't get on right now, due to the fact that I need to eat dinner before leaving for somewhere in... actually, just a few minutes. Hm. I need a sign that says "GONE TO DINNER BE BACK WHENEVER". --Ando (T) 23:16, 2 May 2008 (UTC)
Ok. Just leave me a message and if we get the chance today, awesome, if not, see you Sunday. --Seablue254 23:18, 2 May 2008 (UTC)
Ready when you are. --Seablue254 20:45, 4 May 2008 (UTC)
- Oh. Right. Sorry about that; I had a terrible night's sleep last night and was essentially asleep in front of the TV all day. :/ Perhaps later? --Ando (T) 03:03, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
It's ok. :) Anyway, ill fight you right now if you want >:) Just enter the chatroom --Seablue254 20:46, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
OK! Now that i see you on, would you like to take me on now? Just enter the chatroom. --Seablue254 20:06, 6 May 2008 (UTC)
- I don't have all my Pokemon ready. I've only got, like, one ready. I've never been a big competitive battler so I've never really had a full team ready at any given time. I've been busy recently, too (and freakishly tired, so sleeping as well). Maybe EVENTUALLY, but... Not yet. --Ando (T) 20:11, 6 May 2008 (UTC)
Ok. Pssst. Come in right now, (or accept my gtalk invitation) and ill trade you a "useful" member for your team. ;). --Seablue254 20:15, 6 May 2008 (UTC)
Sorry
Sorry about the recent pictures getting deleted. I'm trying to make it easier with the warning template. --David (T : C) 11:02, 24 April 2008 (UTC)
- Yeah; I think this might be one of those content policy things the staff's gonna have to go over. --Ando (T) 16:30, 24 April 2008 (UTC)
Do you think
It would be okay if i uploaded a pokeball for some pokemon userboxes? --David (T : C) 13:12, 24 April 2008 (UTC)
You don't need to. Here's a picture right here
. But if that's not what you are looking for, it would be fine for you to upload some poke ball picture for userboxes.--Link hero of light 14:53, 24 April 2008 (UTC)
- Exactly. Kirby pictures have been uploaded before for the purposes of userboxes, so why not Pokemon? As long as you don't go overboard and make a userbox for EVERY Pokemon we should be good. :P --Ando (T) 16:30, 24 April 2008 (UTC)
Well, i was only going to do it for the games, really :P --David (T : C) 17:09, 24 April 2008 (UTC)
Can you help? I can't seem to use the template. Oh, and i may have a solution for the ops thing online, come into zeldawiki. --David (T : C) 17:26, 24 April 2008 (UTC)
Where you goin' for the weekend? --David (T : C) 22:23, 24 April 2008 (UTC)
Image
After I chased some of the links from the Library page, I came across the exact same image I added. How or who do I talk to get mine deleted or merged(preferably) with the other one? It's on the Book of Seals page.Axiomist 00:18, 29 April 2008 (UTC)
- Whoops! Well, I switched the image on the Library article with the existing image, and deleted yours (they were technically the exact same image, pulled from the same site). Merging two images doesn't really work since the MediaWiki software can't tell if they're the same images or not. Regardless, though, the problem is fixed; thanks for pointing this out. ;) --Ando (T) 00:47, 29 April 2008 (UTC)
- Thanks, sorry about that. :( I thought I thoroughly searched this site for an image. I was hoping to find a pic of the outside of the building but oh well.Axiomist 03:39, 29 April 2008 (UTC)
Ctrl + C is sometimes not your friend
Advice taken ;) --Seablue254 20:29, 30 April 2008 (UTC)
i see that i didn't do very well on revering the vandalism, it'll take me some time to learn to fix that stuff. --Seablue254 19:17, 1 May 2008 (UTC)
- ? What? I'm... not totally sure I know what you're talking about? I haven't been able to go through and see the full extent of the damage yet, so... --Ando (T) 19:19, 1 May 2008 (UTC)
Sorry. It's just that i saw you deleating some "--- on Epona" vandalism and i thought that since i reported them, i should have done it. --Seablue254 20:14, 1 May 2008 (UTC)
- You should have done what? Deleted them? You can't delete things with your privileges; that's a sysop thing. :P --Ando (T) 22:21, 1 May 2008 (UTC)
Nah, i mean i should have deleted the content from the page to make your work easier. --Seablue254 22:39, 1 May 2008 (UTC)
- I'm still not entirely sure what you mean. I mean, wiping a page clean isn't going to increase or decrease MY workload at all. Unless you mean tagging it with the delete tag. In which case, yeah, maybe you should have. ;) No problem, though; as long as it all got fixed in the end, right? --Ando (T) 22:42, 1 May 2008 (UTC)
Yeah. Anyway, can you delete :Image:Axiomist pic.png for me? It's a duplicate. --Seablue254 22:57, 1 May 2008 (UTC)
