RE: Admins page Edit

Hey, Ilan. I looked at all the examples you gave me, and also looked at your work in the sandbox. Personally, I think it looks good. If the admins have no problem with it, I say go for it. Good work, and keep it up!--SAMurai (-.-.-..-.-) 18:54, January 6, 2012 (UTC)

I like it, but let's leave the former and inactive mods be for now. We can work on them a wee bit later.

The sandbox page looks good. If there's a clean way to add a talk link for each admin (either text or icon), I think that would be helpful. I suspect that most people going to the admin page would be doing so in order to contact an admin about an issue. A direct link would save them an extra click.

RE: Yo Edit

Sorry about that, man. No posts would show up, mine included. Chat does that sometimes, and the only way I know of to fix it is to leave. I'd get back on, but I'm gonna head off after I do a few more things here. Later!--SAMurai (-.-.-..-.-) 16:12, January 7, 2012 (UTC)

Re: Red Dead Answers Edit

Hey, good to hear that you took over Red Dead Answers (it's in good hands). What are your plans? I didn't even realize it was there for many months, then when I first saw it it was kind of a mess - lots of poorly phrased questions, lots of repeats, etc. I thought about attempting some clean-up myself but had enough to do here that I didn't want to tackle it.

Ok, thanks

Thanks Edit

Thanks. :) I don't know if I'll be on here that much, though. I've got a bunch I'm already on. Bunny J. The Bunny button 18:50, February 4, 2012 (UTC)

RE: Congrats+New template?Edit

14,000?! Really?! Man, I stopped paying attention, I didn't even realize... :D

But thanks.

And I'm glad you like the new template color woodgrain. I've been trying to get it to work off-and-on for a few months now, but Annonnimus came up with the working solution and now I've implemented it.

I think it looks aces, too. :)

Re: ONE YEAR! Edit

Thanks! I know some people have lost their progress because of the way Wikia calculates "days" (GMT instead of your local time), but I tend to edit shortly after Wikia's new day begins and it just became part of my nightly routine to hit at least a few pages before going to bed (or a few dozen if I got obsessed with something). Still, I'm glad it stops at one year ... if it had said, "OK, now keep going for another year" I would have deliberately skipped a day to keep from getting even more obsessed! :-)

Need some help in the Chat, we've got a troll by the name of Will Willson. Come if you can.

New editorEdit

Guess what Ilan, I've just made my first contribution here in this wiki. Since tomorrow will be the arrival of my copy, maybe I can contribute now, I guess so. Thanks mate talk to you later :). ExtremoMania ^{Talk To Me This Way} 10:53, March 16, 2012 (UTC)

Hey there, I just wondering, what was your edit to the new wiki page I started?

Sorry, I forgot to log in. The previous message was from me.

Thank you for responding so promptly, I completely understand and will follow your advice.

RE: Moving to BlogsEdit

Thank you for explaining how to turn a page into a blog. I didn't know how to do it, but what I did know is that the page should have been a blog. It would be greatly appreciated if you could complete the process, as it is obvious that I am not very experienced in the process.

Queyh (Talk) 16:24, April 29, 2012 (UTC)

Could you alert an admin to the situation?

Queyh (Talk) 16:29, April 29, 2012 (UTC)

Thank you very much.

The Dark Horse Edit

Hey ilan, sorry to ditch this on you but the dark horse page has some, lets just say out of place words in it and Im not gonna be on long enough to edit it properly and check it. So if you have any spare time maybe you could fix it + this is the only message I have time to leave so you also might want to report the guy to an admin for blocking as well, you'll see why when you read it. Friendly comment from Sykesey 14:44, May 2, 2012 (UTC)

Problem Edit

Hey,

HeretoHelp called Anvil cute and sexy. I told him that and that's about it.

AJ1776AJ1776 22:01, May 3, 2012 (UTC)

Shut up Edit

Hi,

No! Dont worry! I was talking to the wikis contributor that called him a dumbass.

AJ1776AJ1776 02:16, May 19, 2012 (UTC)

Report Edit

Hello,

I am reporting a whiny little (presumably a kid) to u. He posted on the "Rated M for Mature" blog and insulted ME and the blogger. I've seen u take out insulters before, may you make some more admins aware please.

Thank you!

AJ1776AJ1776 13:37, June 12, 2012 (UTC)

You have no prove its not canon as you haven't asked Rockstar yourself...

Chat Edit

Sorry about that! Hello IIan xd, i'm loving this wikia for far, what is Red Dead wikia policy on adding videos?

Thanks for the fix on the Undead Nightmare page, I couldn't figure out how to get that citation thingy to work. Jnzooger (talk) 19:47, October 20, 2012 (UTC)

Promotion Edit

Hey, ilan -

I just wanted to let you know that I've had a few discussions with Hobbes about recruiting some new admins and your name came up.

So, to that end, I have upgraded your position to Admin and you now have all the rights.

hobbes and I have not had as much time to spend around here lately, but that doesn't mean we are gone. Please feel free to contact us for any reason.

Hopefully, this will seem a little like a Christmas present. :)

Cheers!

Troublesome users Edit

Hi, Ilan. Just wanted to warn you about 92.25.79.5 and 68.32.89.112. They're using rude language and harassing each other on a blog post. Bunny J. [Bunnyjoke] 19:55 1/13/2013 

Re: Just asking Edit

Regarding adding a Personality and Traits section to character pages, would this be a few words in the infobox or a paragraph within the article? I think for the main characters it sounds good, since that kind of information is already in their background text and this could formalize how it's entered. For minor characters where not much is known to begin with it wouldn't make sense, but the section could just be omitted there, so that's fine.

To make sure the end result would be consistent, it would be good to think about what you would write for several characters offline first to determine a good style. With some of the big projects I started, I would get halfway through and realize my original plan wasn't ideal so I'd have to rework all the pages I'd already done. :-(

2ks4 (talk) 17:25, January 18, 2013 (UTC)

Looks good, but I wonder if the voice should be present rather than past tense ("Bill Williamson is ..." vs. "Bill Williamson was ..."). The wiki in general is presented as if written during the time of the game ("Bill Williamson is a central character ...") and I think if we're discussing personalities it should follow that same voice.

Also, I would stop short of mentioning details of missions or how a character dies or ends up (in this case the betrayal by Allende), keeping spoilers like that in the full character history and linked mission articles. The section should be relatively spoiler-free. For example, the second sentence might be rewritten as:

His ruthlessness and immorality were shown through countless acts of crime and intimidation, including arson, kidnapping and murder.

Rockstar's bios are a good starting point for some of the characters.

2ks4 (talk) 19:40, January 18, 2013 (UTC)

RE:'SupEdit

You made all of those? They're really good. I didn't quite get the rape one, though. Keep in mind that Allende is an antagonist and I don't consider anything that he did was brought up in a positive light in the game. Bunny J. [Bunnyjoke] 00:36 1/26/2013 

Dude, my mind has been twisted since I was very young and it is so far gone that there's no saving it. :) Bunny J. [Bunnyjoke] 15:36 1/26/2013 

Billy Cougar Edit

llan, based on several edits Billy Cougar makes, he appears to be adding false and unecessary info. Even after telling three times that he shouldn't add false information he did it again. Could you please give him a warning or something similair because I can't do very much about it.

Thanks.

I think it's time that Billy deserves a block, for example he added the same picture and false information to the Alice Thayer again and again after you reverted it.. He clearly goes his own way and doesn't know what to do and what you cannot do here
