If your not busy
I did something crazy helping out on a neglected wiki and I am still rusty with templates (the site has pretty much no templates). So I got ambitious and attempting a infobox transformer I must be missing something if it is something small or big, something I can do or have to get an admin (currently none on on the other wiki). So I figured I asked the one who I know knows templates. Now I know this is a favor and if it is a can of worms you not up to opening or what not, no problem. Thanks in advance. 05:00, September 13, 2011 (UTC)


 * No problem, link the wiki here and make sure I have write privileges. I can give you a hand tomorrow. -- 06:29, September 13, 2011 (UTC)


 * I hope privilege wise it is fine cause there are no active admins (nothing really is protected that we need I hope). My Template, the transformer , the info box , the test article , my temp template (that works) and just in case the infobox . If there are any troubles I have requested for adoption (I know I am mad) so if I get excepted in the next few days or week we can see what we can do then. I did base on the transformers I worked on here if that means anything good or bad.  Thanks again, message me if you need anything else.  06:48, September 13, 2011 (UTC)


 * It looks like the w:c:cafeworld:Template:Recipe Row uses anonymous variables which are referenced as, and so forth, while w:c:cafeworld:Template:Infobox Recipe Transformer uses named variables which are passed as ,  and so forth. For compatibility's sake, it would probably make more sense to change everything to either anonymous variables or named variables. Otherwise you don't really know what's being passed.


 * An example in this case is where the fourth parameter is not defined in w:c:cafeworld:Blue Cotton Candy. It is why it turns up as  ? -- 08:47, September 13, 2011 (UTC)


 * I want the name variables ideally cause it should take the variables from the info boxes instead of manually entering each field, the other is just temp cause it works atm (and was more for reference) and if I can't get the transformers w/ variables work ( then use the number variables till I can get it to work). The transformer with the template aren't working when I use then and that is really why I need your help just takes the infobox as is and doesn't form the table. Maybe I forgot something maybe its bigger, I just really need to know how to make it work or what my error was. Hope that makes sense and the other temp template did not distract from what I meant to need help with.  21:12, September 13, 2011 (UTC)
 * That's because you've chosen to name it . You should be using  . There's a working example in w:c:cafeworld:User:Tierrie/Sandbox 1 if you need to see it in action. -- 21:24, September 13, 2011 (UTC)
 * X / I had a feeling it was something simple/small, prolly shouldn't have been staring at it so long and late last night. Thanks it is good to know it was just me not paying attention. I appreciate that so much thank you. 21:45, September 13, 2011 (UTC)
 * No problem :) Glad I could help -- 21:50, September 13, 2011 (UTC)
 * So bugging again. I am having problems adding the article link to the image and for the life of me I can't get it to work. Sorry for bugging you again. 05:54, September 14, 2011 (UTC)
 * Can you describe the problem you're having as well as links to the examples? -- 06:22, September 14, 2011 (UTC)
 * Sure, regarding same template, in the case of the image I'd like it to be a link as well, to take back to the article. In my test templates here I have an image that links back to the article, when I attempt to adjust the template (reciperow) I only get the default image pop up. I thought [[File:|link=]] would do it but it hasn't.  08:26, September 14, 2011 (UTC)
 * I changed it for you. Here's how it works


 * Hope that helps -- 09:18, September 14, 2011 (UTC)
 * Thank you so much. now I'll try not to bug you for a while :P 18:58, September 14, 2011 (UTC)

Complaints
hello Tirrie thanks fore blocking me i have complained to head office about you and also about you getting rid of facts (exploits) (Cjbeattie (talk) 18:22, September 13, 2011 (UTC))


 * Make sure you get the right people to plead your case. Most users are also welcomed to get another admin's point of view, but seeing as you've already asked User:Loleil and she did not agree with you, I'd caution you from going down that path. In short, your continued contributions on the subject of Exploits or any pages related to it are no longer welcomed. Your contribution privileges will be revoked permanently if you continue this behavior. It is not important to me that your cousin is studying to be a game developer, and family relationship with a game developer does not make you an expert on the subject of exploits. -- 18:37, September 13, 2011 (UTC)

chat
Hello Tierrie, I have a small problem with the chat function in this wiki. It keeps popping up when I'm not even at my PC, resulting in messages like 'are you dead or alive?' from other chat users. This has happened 4 or 5 times and I was wondering if I'm the only one with this problem.--Schrödingercat (talk) 08:22, September 16, 2011 (UTC)

Affiliation
Hey Tierrie, I saw the new affiliated wikis template on the main page (it looks great by the way :D), and was wondering if there were plans for proposing affiliations with any other wikis?


 * I think the main page would look better with less distracting elements on it and I do feel that the affiliates icon can be distracting. With that in mind, I would like to keep the number of affiliates shown to a minimum. Otherwise it'd start looking like a banner ad. The only ones I feel should show up on the main should really be BioWare related or to a lesser extent, single player RPGs in a fantasy setting. You're welcome to suggest any wiki and we can take a look at it. -- 23:38, September 16, 2011 (UTC)
 * I agree that affiliated wikis should be Bioware related or fantasy RPG focused, so if we were going to affiliate with any more wikis, the only ones which spring to mind are the Witcher wiki and the Elder Scrolls wiki. The Elder Scrolls wiki appears to be a work in progress in some areas, so The Witcher wiki is really the only one that I think would be appropriate.

Need help on a Slider
Hi, I need your help on a slider (again) :) I have designed a slider for trailer in Deus Ex Wiki; click here to see. The problem is I don't know how to get rid of the "empty space" in between the video and arrows in "right hand-bottom corner". Appreciate any help you can give on this. -- 08:26, September 17, 2011 (UTC)


 * Thanks and if you have a free time please take a look into extending the design, as you have mentioned. :) -- 04:58, September 19, 2011 (UTC)

Affiliation template
Hey, I think we should keep the "Affiliation template" in the middle column, because there is extra space after "Twitter template". So the user doesn't has to go to the bottom of the page to see it. -- 08:35, September 17, 2011 (UTC)
 * Sounds good to me! Incidently, re the Deus Ex page, I will take a look at it as soon as I get some time once I settle in from my 2 day hike ;) This will probably be tomorrow or early next week. Cheers! -- 04:02, September 19, 2011 (UTC)

Conflict infobox
Hi, I added some guidelines for using the Template:ConflictInfoBox/doc because I'm seeing it used kind of incorrectly (or perhaps a bit too creatively). I hope it's okay but can you check it over? Sporran (talk) 17:41, September 17, 2011 (UTC)

Forum Intros
Do you want me to rewrite them now in a sandbox or when the forums are moved/renamed?

Dragon Age Answers?
Hi, What's with the change of our logo in top-left corner? I just noticed that. Did I miss anything important discussion regarding this? The user who changed the logo is User:Angela; she is one of the Wiki staff.-- 14:04, September 20, 2011 (UTC)
 * I didn't notice a change in the logo. Are you on Monobook? What are you seeing? -- 16:06, September 20, 2011 (UTC)


 * That is weird. Here is the screenshot and the link to the file history of the logo. I didn't revert the image because I thought you are aware of this change. -- 03:19, September 21, 2011 (UTC)




 * I have no idea how that came about. I see that you left her a message already. We'll see what she says in a few days and revert it if we don't hear from her. -- 03:58, September 21, 2011 (UTC)

She said it was a mistake. So I changed the things back to normal. -- 13:29, September 21, 2011 (UTC)

Banners
Tierrie could you take a look at the new icons for the forum banners? I've been tinkering for a while but couldn't change the icons for the life of me. Thanks! 10:55, September 25, 2011 (UTC)

Amazing ^^ I'm flattered that you liked it so much you decided to give it a try =P And very awesome idea of the little story thingy as the connection between the entries =D Thanks for the heads up, partner -- I announced it on the latest news post ^^ Good luck, and take care, Tierrie! -- D.

Circle of Magi in Orzammar
I made up a new page. It is about an Orzammar Circle of Magi. If I leave it up, will I get banned from writing new pages or editing anything ever again? I think it would actually be cool to have a Circle of Magi in Orzammar. Just saying. Please don't delete it and please don't ban me from using the site ever again or from editing anything.


 * Uh, Tierrie.... I don't know what happened but when I put his page up as a candidate for deletion it seems to have made a new page. My best guess is that when you moved his to the forums I was editing, and it somehow happened from there. Balitant (talk) 01:22, September 27, 2011 (UTC)

Portal codes
'Ello Tierrie, I just wanted to ask your permission on using the portal code - the one that's also on the Assassin's Creed wiki - for the I Am Alive wiki. I've seen you around a couple of times, so I thought I'd stop by and ask if I could use it rather than only taking it and creditting you. Please leave a message here or here. Have a nice day.

Need your eyeballs again
Hi Tierrie. I'm setting up your Sexy Slider™ at Ninja Gaiden Wiki. I got everything setup correctly (or so I think) and for some reason, the images aren't displaying on the actual slider, even though they appear fine on Portal/Main. When mousing over the "150px" (on the first slide) and "200px" (on the other slides), the browser is looking for Template Placeholder.png for some reason. (Placeholder.png is the image name) Here are the relevant links: Anyway, if you get a chance to take a look, either message me on Wikia somewhere or Skype me tomorrow. Thanks in advance.

Home again home again!
I just came back from being away from home for a month. So I was thinking about maybe on continuing some origin's clean up/updating but I scarcely know where to start. If you or the other mods have ideas or been talking about it, I'd be more than happy to start up a sort of long term clean up/updating project but I'd need some guidelines or wish list of some sort. I do have the new dragon age but I am playing origins/awakening on and off atm. (crossposted with Loleil). Lemme know 08:11, October 4, 2011 (UTC)

Could you help me?
Hi Tierrie, My name is Ian, and I've started creating my own wiki. I love the page slider you have created for this wiki's main page, and I've tried recreating it for my wiki, and it's just not working at all.... Could you help me get it to work, please? Thanks, Ian Bernard 19:13, October 6, 2011 (UTC)

About the Orlesian Mystery Murder
I'm not sure to who to contact at Wikia (I'm guessing you are more up to date regarding that, since you handled that part of the contest), but one of the winners for the Olresian Mystery Murder random giveaway, Thornsparks79, is having problems claiming his prize: the code is apparently invalid (see my talk page). --D.

Spell/Talent Origins Pages/Tables ref clean up tag
(This was first posted to Loleil about a week ago but she appears to be away.)

I have some possible changes for the a clean up tag on Spells (Origins), samples here. If still not clean enough if some suggestions (especially for clean up tags due to the new wiki look) would be greatly appreciated, so I can see what I can do :) 00:32, November 15, 2011 (UTC)


 * I was considering alternate ways to show the info (ie your idea of 2 rows of 2) but I assumed the set up was to mimic the in game spell book (which is why I ask specifically if it was enough or if going away from the original style was needed). I can make alternate views that go away from this in game likeness if you like and see if it is favorable even if it doesn't look like the in game style? 01:11, November 15, 2011 (UTC)


 * User_blog:Hollowness/Spell_Iconmini_Table_Samples. 2 more ideas, lemme know what you think. 07:16, November 17, 2011 (UTC)

Portal/Slider
Hi Tierrie, A few months ago I saw the portal/slider on the Assassin’s Creed Wiki. It’s quite impressive. I finally decided to try something similar for the wiki I’m on. From looking at the different templates, it looks like you’re the creator of the majority of the work (or at least the coding). I would really appreciate some information on how you get pages/templates to open in the same space on the main page. If you are willing to give me a few tips, I'd love to hear from you. Thanks :)  NickyLinnea Talk  04:59, November 16, 2011 (UTC)

do you think this template could be utilized?
Well, I couldn't sleep cause I had a template idea, lemme know what you think, I think friendship/rivalry need some consistency either way but this could help too maybe? User:Hollowness/Template 12:53, November 23, 2011 (UTC)

iconmini question
I was wondering it it was possible to have an alternate image if the default is not wanted (ie. codex entries that are used for but DA1 and DA2 have DA1 codex image File:Ico codex entry.png and I want to use the DA2 codex image File:Codex icon DA2.png). Also if we could have a textless option? I am not the most familiar with iconmini when you improved it and linked it with the inventory icons. Lemme know, thanks 03:39, November 25, 2011 (UTC)


 * No worries, real life trumps, have fun :) 03:03, November 29, 2011 (UTC)

Slider
Hi Tierrie,

I contacted you a few weeks ago about the Portal/Slider. I read your help page, and copied all the templates that I should need to make the portal pages work, but I'm still not getting any of them to open without it just linking me to the template page. The templates still need work, but I don't want to continue with that until at least one page will open the way it should. If you have the time, will you take a look at it to see what is needed? If you want to talk on chat, send me a message and let me know a time (and location). Thanks so much. NickyLinnea Talk 12:48, November 30, 2011 (UTC)

Portal/Component/Slider

Your Slider
Hi Tierrie. A few months ago, JoePlay helped me set up your slider over on w:c:NinjaGaiden and while it works in Oasis, I cannot get it to work on Monobook. I added the appropriate css to the monobook css and so it appears, it just does not slide, leading me to believe it is a problem in the js. If you have time, I would appreciate any help you can give me with this slider. Thanks. --

The Last of Us Wiki Portal
Hello Tierrie. I am Sackchief, the head administrator of The Last of Us Wiki. I have recently started this gaming wiki to cover information on the upcoming Naughty Dog title, The Last of Us. I would like to use the Portal template system that you created, if that's okay. I will make sure that full credit will be given to you where necessary. Thank you. Here is my talk page

Spoiler tags
When you're back, could you look into making spoiler tags for Dragon Age: Asunder and Dragon Age (Dark Horse Comics)? I could also make them if you're too busy, but I'm just not sure if they are meant to use a certain type of images since the former is from a book and the latter is from a comic. Asunder will be released soon... no pressure, at all! --D. (talk · contr) 01:10, December 17, 2011 (UTC)


 * Sure can! Any image you have in mind? -- 21:54, December 18, 2011 (UTC)


 * Lack of creativity here, so I would suggest using the image on the pages (the only ones which were released). It may look inconsistent with the other spoiler tags for the books since they use images from Origins and Awakening to keep the same style though. --D. (talk · contr) 02:38, December 19, 2011 (UTC)


 * Looks like I am going to be a little tied up. Go ahead and make the images. We can always replace them in the future if there's a huge drive for consistency as far as images are concerned. -- 04:55, December 20, 2011 (UTC)


 * Since I'm lazy, I only made the Asunder one and just made it somewhat the same style as the other books' spoiler tags. Not sure what the template should have been named though, so feel free to move it (Template:SpoilerASU). --D. (talk · contr) 18:52, December 20, 2011 (UTC)

Affiliation
Hello Tierrie. I'm not sure if you are the right person to ask, and if you are not, I hope you can direct me to the right person. I'm the bureaucrat of Hitman wiki, which has recently undergone a massive revamp (well, it's still going on, to be completely honest...) I'm currently working on getting affiliates, and since you have already affiliated with a few other wikis, I was hoping you would be willing to affiliate with us too. Please let me know! Nesty Contact me! 14:55, February 21, 2012 (UTC)
 * Hey there Amnestyyy! We don't have an official policy in place, but there was a community discussion that took place. It sounds like Hitman is a totally different genre and world type from Dragon Age. As such, it doesn't sound like there would be much overlap. But, as this wiki is run by consensus, I suggest also asking Loleil, D-day and Snfonseka if you feel strongly about this. However, we are all mostly of the same mind so they may just tell you the same thing. Cheers! -- 07:13, February 22, 2012 (UTC)

block appeal
hello tierrie, i wanted some help and you were the first admin i could find, i was blocked - not in this wiki though - but on the mass effect wiki, i believe the admin made a horrible, yet a little undertandable mistake in blocking me, i want to appeal but no matter were i look i cant contact the guy since he even blocked me fomr editing my own talk page! help!Señor action (talk) 23:40, February 21, 2012 (UTC)
 * Hey there Señor action. Unfortunately, we have no jurisdiction at the Mass Effect wiki. You might try contacting the admin through their community page, for example c:community:User:Tierrie clarifying your position. Good luck. -- 07:17, February 22, 2012 (UTC)

Vandalism
Hello Tierrie, I suggest that you or one of the other admins ban a certain user that goes by the username of Yaling520. That user has posted three blogs on the business of jewelry which as you know has nothing to do with the purpose of this wiki. User:Super Warden

Also, would you mind either locking or deleting the following: http://dragonage.wikia.com/wiki/Forum:SWTOR_Are_living_Steady_stream "forum" and giving a warning or reprimand to Swtorcreditsp? Not sure if they're deliberately trying to mess up the wiki, but it sure looks like it. ---- Isolationistmagi   06:58, March 20, 2012 (UTC)

for Dragon Age: Dawn of the Seeker wiki
Tierrie, we'd love to get in contact with someone on the Dragon Age wiki about giving you guys materials for the Dragon Age: Dawn of the Seeker wiki. Can you please contact me? You can email me at feedback@funimation.com -FUNimation-FUNimation (talk) 15:20, March 7, 2012 (UTC)
 * That sounds awesome! I'll get in touch with you. -- 22:17, March 7, 2012 (UTC)

Rollback rights
Hey, Tierrie. I was speaking to User:Asherinka and considering all the work she's done in the small amount of time, thought that it might be a good idea to give her rollback rights. She's alerted me and other admins to a lot of vandalism and has always reverted it promptly, so I figured, why not make it easier? She's accepted, but obviously feel free to chip in  17:18, March 12, 2012 (UTC)

 * They look a little inconsistent in their quality and their symbolism.

Retirement
Hey there Tierrie ^^ Hope everything is well =] Just to let you know that I am retiring from wiki duties. My life has reached a new level, and feel it´s time I follow this new journey.

Pink
Hi Tierrie, the new pink site is not easy to look at. The pink text hurts to see after a while. More importantly for those of us who are Red Green colorblind the pink text disappears, they only see blank spot where this is pink text. It needs to me more WWW compliant.

 * Yes, I realise that wikia controls the ads and we cannot utilise the entire space available on the main page. I wanted to use the Portal namespace for a subpage, but for some reason that namespace doesn't seem to work.. --Vatsa ( talk • Gentek ) 17:28, April 13, 2012 (UTC)

 * Aleroth Sarenford, I was there. I saw what you said to Skull Crusher Assassin 87 and it did not happen as you described. In fact, after he recanted his statement, you praised him for keeping the statement as is. At best this dishonesty has left me with a lack of faith in your actions, and at worst, a disappointing feeling that you do not fully understand what you have done.


 * The warning stands. You may appeal to the other administrators, King Cousland, D-day and Loleil and present your argument to them. -- 03:01, May 1, 2012 (UTC)

For some reason after I try to send the email, a wiki page comes up telling me that the action was 'throttled' and that I am unable to perform the action requested. I was wondering if there would be an alternate manner to send you the required information? Thanks in advance DeltaEcho (talk) 23:02, May 10, 2012 (UTC)

Playstation All-Stars Wiki Portal
Hello Tierrie. I am Sackchief, the head administrator of Playstation All-Stars Wiki. I have recently started this gaming wiki to cover information on the upcoming Playstation title, Playstation All-Stars Battle Royale. I would like to use the Portal template system that you created, if that's okay. I will make sure that full credit will be given to you where necessary. Thank you. Here is my talk page

Portal Help
Hey Tierrie, its Sackchief. Recently I asked to use your Portal system for my Playstation All-Stars wiki, but I'm having some trouble and hope you wouldn't mind helping me out. This is really the first time I used it by myself, before my friend Klock101 did it for me on my other wikis. First off, I have already made the templates for PortalTransformer, PortalSection and PortalPage, but I can't get them to work because I don't know how to edit the common stylesheet or edit classes. If you could give me some tips that would be very appreciated. Thanks

Emoticon Ideas.
Hey, wanted to say I love the emoticons here on DA Wiki, and I had some ideas I'd like to throw in for more. How about emotions of different memes? For example:


 * You Don't Say


 * Challenge Accepted

I think those two would be welcome additions, but it's just a thought. I don't want our lovely chat room to degenerate into a battle of rage comic faces.

Wiki Search.
#WikiaSearch button { padding: 0px !important; }

It will be useful ;)

Aleroth Sarenford
Hi Tierrie!

I understand you blocked Aleroth Sarenford. He just contacted me and asked me to fold my Jade Empire Modding Wiki into his Bioware wiki. Now I'm trying to figure out who this person is. Can you enlighten me a little? -- peco e s 16:35, July 04, 2012 (UTC)


 * On second thought: I just had a little chat with Aleroth and got about all the enlightening I can stomach. So, er, never mind! -- peco e s 17:12, July 04, 2012 (UTC)

TOR WIki - Friends
Hi there, I am the Admin of TOR Wiki and I was wondering if the two wikis can be friends (or affiliates if you wish) the same way you and the Mass Effect wiki are. Considering both of our wikis are for games made by BioWare I don't see why not. What do you think? Dosadnik 1 (talk) 05:06, July 19, 2012 (UTC)

Hello! Are you there? Should I talk to someone else about this, or do you have some policy where I should make a forum post or something? I know Mass Effect Wiki has one. Are you the right guy to talk to about this or should I contact one of the other admins? Dosadnik 1 (talk) 19:19, July 20, 2012 (UTC)

Thank you for considering this. Do let me know once you come to a decision. Dosadnik 1 (talk) 03:44, July 21, 2012 (UTC)

I see that you have added TOR Wiki to your list of affiliates.I thank you for that. I also saw that you uploaded an older version of our logo, so I went ahead and changed it to the new logo that we have. I will go ahead now and add Dragon Age Wiki to our list of friends. Thank you again! Dosadnik 1 (talk) 18:49, August 2, 2012 (UTC)

Re:Affiliate program
Well, based on the quality of the TOR wiki itself and the fact it's a BioWare game, I don't necessarily have a problem. Maybe we should call it a limit at three though? 11:35, July 21, 2012 (UTC)

RE: Affiliate program
Hey tierrie, In my personal opinion the two games have clear differences that similarities. Yes, it's a Bioware product; but The Old Republic is a MMO which targets different market (or different set of customers) where DA is a standard RPG which targets different set of players. Yes there are players who play the both games but that's the minority.

But that's only matters if we are going to consider similarities of the two games for the Affiliate Program. As I recall, my point of view regarding Assassin's Creed Affiliate Program was that the similarities of the two games cannot be considered as the major factor. In my opinion, from a Affiliate Program we expect to get new players into DA franchise; but at the same time the target Wiki shouldn't be something totally different (example, a Wiki that stands for Platformer or Social Game). While being different than DA, The Old Republic keeps some similarities also (at least more that Assassin's Creed); so in my opinion it is worthy to consider an affiliate program with that Wiki. -- 02:46, July 22, 2012 (UTC)

TY & A Question re: Images
Thanks for your note on my talk page! (I also noticed your edit re: self-referencing links & will try to keep that in mind in the future.) I have a question about photos:  On these pages 1 & 2 there are currently icon-based photos in the item info box. I don't want to step on anyone's toes so I left the page as-is, but I would like to know if it would be appropriate to replace them with the actual in-game photos I've recently added. Similarly, on 3 & 4 there are already pics (that are of poor quality, IMHO) so I left those alone as well- same question. Please let me know if I should go ahead and make further changes (and what should be done with the images I replace, if anything? (i.e. create a gallery, etc.) 14:45, August 7, 2012 (UTC)

Thank you!
Hi Tierrie,

Thank you for adding the citation to the Mage page for the "robes" trivia I added. I was having some trouble getting it to show up properly. Thank you! :) Circle Mage (talk) 01:23, August 9, 2012 (UTC)

Something's broken?
I've been noticing visible tags on pages where I haven't seen them before. For instance, near the top of (all) forums, and in the template I had used here. I'm guessing this may be an issue with wikia.com? I've noticed that the scroll bar in the preview pane (while editing) has starting working properly again, but it seems like they've broken one thing to fix something else. 17:28, August 16, 2012 (UTC)


 * Wow! I'm glad to see that you were able to find and fix that so quickly.  BTW, I've been toying around with this.  I have a feeling that something similar probably already exists, but if it can be useful somehow (after some cleanup / joke removal), let me know. -E. 21:39, August 16, 2012 (UTC)

Questions for the wiki master
Hey there,

During my little bout of editing today, I noticed a couple of oddities and thought that, as our resident coding expert, you might be able explain away/fix them. Firstly, when searching for an article if the search word is lower case, the search engine no longer redirects to the article. Instead it just goes to a list of search terms. Secondly, on the recent changes page, if I'm logged in there doesn't seem to be any auto-collapse. So if an article has had more than one edit all the edits will be on display. Any ideas on what's causing this? 06:12, September 2, 2012 (UTC)
 * Poke poke. Remember Tierrie, I made you and I can unmake you too... 02:23, September 14, 2012 (UTC)

Quest Info Box - Prerequisites
I started a discussion on Template talk:QuestInfoBox, please take a look when you have a moment. 19:10, September 2, 2012 (UTC)

User editing another profile
A user editing someone's profile. Someone you appear to be familiar with (not the editor but the profile). Balitant (talk) 02:18, September 8, 2012 (UTC)
 * I was more concerned about the history you had with the "owner" of the page who gave "orders". Considering how it seems he does not seem to be here anymore for a good reason (you're history) I thought it warranted a mention to an admin that dealt with the individual. Balitant (talk) 08:05, September 8, 2012 (UTC)

Synthesis International necessary?
Hello Tierrie, I found a page that doesn't seem to be very important: Synthesis International.

It is about a company that translated the DA games into Italian. I was wondering whether we need a page for every company that worked on DA.--Schrödingercat (talk) 14:34, September 22, 2012 (UTC)


 * somebody edited my message, I undid it and placed additional text here--Schrödingercat (talk) 15:14, September 22, 2012 (UTC)
 * (seems to be a translation company).and Spanish. It is also a company that translates any game into Italian, Japanese, Portuguese (Brazil) and Spanish.

Portal
Hello Tierrie. I'm Mousekat, an administrator of the Sly Cooper Wiki and I found your portal system very cool. If it's alright with you, I'd like to use it for that wiki. I will make sure to give proper credit where it is necessary. Cheers! Mousekat (talk) 06:15, September 23, 2012 (UTC)

Fixing stuff
I don't want to forget to tell you when you're back (and I don't know if you'll be back by next week). The portal script is apparently screwing up the lightboxes for images. I'm assuming you're using the default skin, so you can check on the front page and click an image in the "Feature images" box. The lightbox is supposed to be centered, but it's going to the right. I was contacted by someone (SpY) on the chat a while ago that any wiki that uses the portal script has this problem. He told me this happened for quite some time now, so I'm surprised no one even told us about it.

Also, thanks! :D I'll forever be a dork. I didn't get a reply regarding the logo, so tell me if you want any change before next week. 18:05, October 3, 2012 (UTC)

More Tunselous Nonsense
Hey Tierrie, we have a couple more people spamming pages.

http://dragonage.wikia.com/wiki/Special:Contributions/207.161.27.78 on page http://dragonage.wikia.com/wiki/User_talk:Aleroth_Sarenford?diff=445450&oldid=445449

I'm going to undo the spam and check for more, but just thought you'd want to know. ---- Isolationistmagi   22:36, October 10, 2012 (UTC)

Portal
Hey, recently we've been having a problem with the portal. The contents have been drifting and I am not sure what might be causing this.. --Vatsa ( talk • Gentek ) 04:40, October 14, 2012 (UTC)

Jak Darckner
Hey, I found the troll again on http://dragonage.wikia.com/wiki/Forum:If_you_were_in_the_world_of_DA?t=20121014184651. I'm not sure if he's still banned, but just wanted to give you a heads-up. 19:48, October 14, 2012 (UTC)

Those Who Speak spoiler quote
Hey. In Dragon Age: Those Who Speak the spoiler logo features Sten as an Arishok. So I found a quote of Sten which might be suitable to use. When Alistair tries to escape from the prison and Sten blocks his way, he called the Arishok as Sten and he replies while attacking: "I am no longer Sten."

Edit: Or if you find it too spoilery, perhaps this quote of Sten might look good: " Parasharra. You will not be permitted to leave. "

What do you think? 12:17, November 14, 2012 (UTC)


 * I feel like the first one might be a bit spoilerish, but the second one has the feel of Sten without giving away too much ;) Will you need help implementing it? -- 19:27, November 14, 2012 (UTC)


 * Nope, I just don't know the procedure with the spoilers, since some of them are protected which means that admins are involved in the whole process. Anyway I added the second one :) By the way it seems our timezones are in the complete opposite. Perhaps you can send me your email and talk from there? 11:46, November 15, 2012 (UTC)

Thank you for your actions
I want to apologize for my actions in the chat earlier today, and you are within your right to ban me for continually arguing with your decision. With that said, there's more to the story than you have been told. If you will allow me, I would like to give you the rest of the story. Make no mistake; I will abide by your decisions and wishes, but I would like to explain my frustrations. Once my ban is done and the next you're on at the same time, I would like the opportunity apologize to you for questioning your authority and decisions in person.

Again, thank you very much for keeping the chat safe and pleasant for all users, myself included. You have been very reasonable with your decisions. Hitokiri Akins (talk) 23:49, November 21, 2012 (UTC)


 * Hitokiri, while I appreciate the conciliatory tone in your remarks, your comments indicate that you have a poor understanding of why you were banned.


 * As I mentioned multiple times prior to banning you, this ban is a direct result of your inability to keep your conversations from degenerating into something sexual. Given your history of joking and flirting with the idea of pedophilia I feel very strongly that comments of a sexual nature should not be coming from you.


 * As we have in the past, you are welcome to appeal your decision to any of the active moderators including Michael Largness, Isolationistmagi, Teyx or D-day. -- 00:06, November 22, 2012 (UTC)


 * I have left a message for Isolationistmagi, requesting that she vouch for my behavior when you are not there and how, every time I mention sex, it does NOT end up in the offensive topic of pedophiliac inclinations and how offensive your assumptions that I am fixated on that subject are.

Slider Monobook Compatability
Hi Tierrie, I was trying to set up your slider system on another wiki, when I noticed that the JS used to make the sliders function strips away the styling on the slides in monobook. As seen here on this wiki, the slides lose their coloring in monobook. Is there a way to fix this?--

Confused
Hello Mr. Kittenface! Do you have any idea what this is for? Is it just there on the off chance we want to add hieroglyphs to the wiki? 09:15, January 14, 2013 (UTC)


 * Hello Miss Amazing Admin! I've never seen that page before. It looks like the Egyptians are taking over. Egyptian High Five!  -- 01:10, January 17, 2013 (UTC)


 * Awesome! I will celebrate with an Egyptian party frog!   01:19, January 17, 2013 (UTC)


 * "I heard party!", says the fruit bowl bearing antelope. (ps. I really have no idea why Wikia implemented this plugin)  -- 01:22, January 17, 2013 (UTC)


 * "I have the wine!" says the owl  (and I can only assume there must be tonnes of ancient Egyptian wikis out there that I've never heard of).  01:36, January 17, 2013 (UTC)

Recipe template breaking pages
It was literally every recipe. Potent Lyrium Potion Recipe for example. And Tranquil Proprietor as an example of someone whose page was also screwed by the template breaking, as he sold recipes. Your latest revision seems fine as far as not breaking them.
