You mean this thread - What else they say? if so it has been done. AzuraKnight (talk) 13:49, May 8, 2013 (UTC)

Yes. It won't let me publish some of the quotes I have found

Unique Items
You're right, it should be deleted. 02:10, June 9, 2013 (UTC)

Quest Category
Hi there, please don't add the quest category to location articles. That is for quests only. EbonySkyrim (talk) 09:33, June 12, 2013 (UTC)
 * Alduin, you don't need to add skyrim books category to skyrim books, it comes by default. :) EbonySkyrim (talk) 10:38, June 12, 2013 (UTC)

Categories
There is no need to add Category:Skyrim: Weapons to pages, as the template automatically add this category. Please double check pages before adding. Jimeee (talk) 09:10, June 14, 2013 (UTC)


 * This also goes for the templates such as SkyrimConjurationSpells. The category is auto-added with the template, please don't add them, and remember to preview before adding new categories to make sure they are actually there. — TombRaiser  SPEAK!  18:35, June 17, 2013 (UTC)

Maces
Hi Alduin, an easy way to see if there is already a page about something is to write in this case Mace in the searchbox and hit enter. Then you will get a list of pages with mace on top leading to this disambig page: Mace. There you see there is already a page for Maces in Skyrim. :) EbonySkyrim (talk) 18:27, June 22, 2013 (UTC)

I know. I am definly sure when I done that earlier it came up page does not exist in big red writing. I can remember because I found it really strange

Re: vandal
Hello,

It looks like Kennyannydenny already took care of the problem on Grelod the Kind. Also, please remember to sign your posts with ~ Kroq-gar78 (talk) 19:12, June 22, 2013 (UTC)


 * Can we atleast get the guy who vandalised it banned for a week as a punishment


 * According to this page, it actually looks like Kenny blocked him for a year! xD Kroq-gar78 (talk) 19:31, June 22, 2013 (UTC)


 * I see that this has been taken care of already. Anyway in future if you see a vandal report it to The Elder Scrolls Wiki:Vandalism in progress. 22:46, June 22, 2013 (UTC)

Bug
It wasn't listed there. I'll try what it said for Rikke, but the bug involved Tullius.

- Alduin's Bane

If that does not work try waiting 24 hours then talking to him.

Updated with new information
We have been asked to come up with a clearer set of forum rules, particularly for the off topic forum. If possible I would love to have some ideas and concerns you may think need to includeded. Also would love it if mods hop on the IRC a few times a week, I am on there daily if anyone would like to confer with me that way. It also gives you access to the CVN which makes watching the forums alot easier.

Thanks,

Mumble and Moderation
I have a Mumble server we can use to talk on as a group of mods, if we can all get a time together that we can talk and use it then that would be great. So if you'd jump on the open Moderator thread and list your time zone and convenient times to chat we can go from there. As it is my Mumble server the four of us are free to use it as needed, however it is just for us. . . I know that goes without saying, but I thought I'd better say it aloud (so to speak) anyway. Look forward to hearing some voices and getting some things taken care of.Ability is what you can do, motivation is how much you do, motivation is how well you do it.

Signing talk pages
Alduin, you are a staff member and represent the wiki, so you should already know to add a new header when leaving someone a new message on a talk page and to sign your message with 4 tilde (~). Please take this into account, because these are things that staff members should already be familiar with, no matter how minor it may seem. Thanks. — TombRaiser  SPEAK!  20:07, July 31, 2013 (UTC)

AzuraKnight
I had actually discussed it with him when the whole thing was being formed, he had no desire to take on the official responsibility. He was, and is, an active member on the forums and does his part to help keep them clean and helpful, but I think that's as far as he wants it taken for the time being.Ability is what you can do, motivation is how much you do, attitude is how well you do it.

Forum Arguement Help
I can't remember what discussion group that was in that you said you needed help on (Best Race for Warrior), but if it's out of hand just delete the whole thing.

So dude, have you solved that mod problem? (Sky Above,Voice Within (talk) 21:45, September 4, 2013 (UTC))

Letter to ZeniMax
Hey, so the new information doesn't get lost in the sea of comments, can you make edits to the original post of the blog as the letters are changed and/or sent and recieved? That way all the chain of conversation between us and them is together.Ability is what you can do, motivation is how much you do, attitude is how well you do it.

Console Commands do not disable Steam Achievements
Hey Alduin1996,

After seeing your comment on my "Do Console Commands disable steam achievments" thread, I decided to try an experiment. I picked the "Taking Sides" achievement, because I figured it was easy to get. I used console commands to spawn in the Penitus Oculatus Armor set (armor, boots, bracers, and helmet". And proceeded to see General Tulius about joining the Empire. I went through the quest, cleared out the fort, and went through the oath with the General. I got the achievment. So it seems that even when using console commands, Steam achievments are not disabled. Thought you'd like to know this.--Ryker6122:31, September 16, 2013 (UTC)~3:31pm 9/16/2013

It was to hide the accidental spamming I was doing when adding the abilities categories to the Online pages just now. Timeoin•Say G'Day•View my work 13:56, September 21, 2013 (UTC)

Here is the link, I think. It needs people to formally put down a reason for their nomination though. UAM has written some good reasons, however, he has done that for everyone lol). Timeoin•Say G'Day•View my work 15:02, September 25, 2013 (UTC)

Add merchants to the Ragged flagon through console commands
I can't complete the city influence quests through console commands, tried it already, so I just set my reputation to Guild Master. I need some sort of Global= command I think. Bot2345 (talk) 22:26, September 26, 2013 (UTC)

A reminder
Hi Alduin, Tomb asked you some time ago above that as you are a staff member to please sign properly on talkpages. I'm asking you again, as I've seen you forgotten to do this and the latest was today, to do so and also to remember to add a header. EbonySkyrim (talk) 15:30, October 5, 2013 (UTC)
 * Alduin, please sign with 4 tildes so one can see who it is. I see you removed the unsign I added but how is Timeoin going to see it was you who added something, he will have to go into the history to have a look as there is no link to your talkpage there now. EbonySkyrim (talk) 16:15, October 5, 2013 (UTC)


 * I thought I signed it but I clearly never. I am going to have to read over what I write next time to make sure that I do sign it.
 * Your mind is the most powerful weapon you have 16:19, October 5, 2013 (UTC)
 * I'm not very good at doing signatures.. there is something that isn't right. Why don't you ask PsijicThief as he also has changed his. :) EbonySkyrim (talk) 19:24, October 5, 2013 (UTC)

Neloth
I lowered the restrictions for you. Go fix the edit - because then you have more edits on the main-space :) Timeoin•Say G'Day•View my work 13:57, October 8, 2013 (UTC)

Signature
Hey Alduin, I see you are having some problems with getting the signature to appear correctly. It might have something to do with how you set up the "Custom signature" field, located in "My Preferences". If you're using plain text without wikilinks, then your signature will only appear as text. If you have wikilinks in the field, then you have to put a checkmark in the box that says "I want to use wikitext in my signature". If none of these solve the problem, then I would suggest leaving the custom signature field blank and use the default signature setting. — TombRaiser  SPEAK!  18:06, October 8, 2013 (UTC)


 * I will look into that. Thanks for the help Best Regards Alduin1996 18:09, October 8, 2013 (UTC)


 * Alduin, I made you a signature. Go to your preferences and add in the custom signature box and click the I want to use wikilinks and then save. Here you can edit it yourself as you please Signature.  21:14, October 8, 2013 (UTC)
 * Alduin, have you tried the signature? 22:17, October 10, 2013 (UTC)


 * Trying it now Remember your mind is the best weapon you have (talk) 08:41, October 11, 2013 (UTC)
 * Good, it works. :) If you want to change just edit the signature template. 09:32, October 11, 2013 (UTC)

Ban User

 * Can you ban a user please. He is trolling people and might start vandalising pages

Are you still able to edit if you wanted to, when you are at college? If not, we will need to fix that, because it means that it was a blanket ban for the college. Timeoin•Say G'Day•View my work 20:53, October 11, 2013 (UTC)

Re: Morrowind weapons
Yeah, I know... I've just started playing Morrowind and I haven't seen that many weapons yet! I'll see what I can add in time. :) 11:42, October 12, 2013 (UTC)
 * You can download the Morrowind Construction Set to find out things like that. Don't know where though but try at the official site. Official Site. 11:59, October 12, 2013 (UTC)

Re: Morrowind steel arrow coding
I think it's fixed now. Sometimes, the visual mode go bug-out and screws up the layout. Consider learning how to edit in source mode; adding and editing templates is way easier than in the visual mode. Let me know if you want to know more. (Sky Above,Voice Within (talk) 16:46, October 12, 2013 (UTC))
 * I just added a "*" in source mode. I have to go, thanks. (Sky Above,Voice Within (talk) 16:50, October 12, 2013 (UTC))

Book
You probably didn't find it because the page has a slightly different name, now that I think about it it should be a redirect instead of being deleted, so no one else creates the page again. 21:54, October 12, 2013 (UTC)

Morrowind Weapons
Yes. That is correct. There is currently no page for that weapon type. Feel free to make it if you want too! I'm about to go to sleep :( Timeoin•Say G'Day•View my work 13:21, October 13, 2013 (UTC)

Re: Name change quest
Yes, you can rename it. You must remember to add links when leaving messages, it's so much easier for others. Also add links to the articles. I have added the quest template to the Kill Hard-Heart. Click the little arrow beside the edit button and list will appear, click on move and there you can rename the article but you must leave a redirect or fix the articles that link to it first. Add a quest template to the other quest as well. Are you editing in source mode? That is much easier and you will get no extra code. 22:35, October 13, 2013 (UTC)
 * Also think about how you write, do not use first or second person, "you" or "the player". Write in third person.. :) 22:37, October 13, 2013 (UTC)

Lord Hadron
Is that a misprint of the IP maybe? If we could find it, then maybe. Timeoin•Say G'Day•View my work 14:41, October 16, 2013 (UTC)
 * Hello, i saw your question and thought i should clear it out a bit. I believe that Hadron's "stalking user" was referring to me, since i make it a habit reminding him of his banned account. The wiki contributor, however, is not me, and i haven't seen his IP anytime recently. Hope this helps. (Sky Above,Voice Within (talk) 15:07, October 16, 2013 (UTC))
 * No problem. I'll try to stop harassing him in the future, though it won't be easy. I suggest you don't take that guy serious. Thanks.(Sky Above,Voice Within (talk) 15:29, October 16, 2013 (UTC))

Regarding Forum posts.
Hi Alduin, I'm wondering about forum posts and how you discern where the posts should go. My latest post is ' Question Re: Skyrim Exploits and patches for consoles.' (Skyrim Forum) I wasn't sure if I should post in the Off Topic section and wasn't sure if the post will be overlooked because of post numbers in either section. Thanks for your time.Conan&#39;s Armpit (talk) 18:41, October 20, 2013 (UTC)

Hello again, thanks for contributing to the Guild Idea's thread. I'm guessing that was you that posted a message on my talk page, as it wasn't signed.

Regarding the Guild idea's thread, Pink Slim looks like he's removed a spam comment but I still see it on the page, I'm not sure what to do, I'm hoping you can fix as I don't know how to remove it properly. Thank's for you're time.Conan&#39;s Armpit (talk) 20:02, October 29, 2013 (UTC)

I'm at work currently, and will be until 6:30pm CST (GMT -6), but will be jumping into the chat as soon as I get home for a while. I was thinking I could help you out then if you are able to jump online about that time. I think I understand what you're looking at, but I wanted to talk in a more real time setting to ensure we're communicating properly. I could also get you the information to my Mumble Server if you wanted to chat live there. If you have a steam account shoot me a talk message with it and I'll friend you that way, as well.

Hope someone answers your question. Thanks. (Sky Above,Voice Within (talk) 20:32, October 24, 2013 (UTC))
 * I'm not sure I can give you an answer to that. All I know is what you can get from the creation kit/construction set for the games. And according to the wiki there are only Daedric Ruins in Morrowind.. 08:09, October 25, 2013 (UTC)

Catching da vandal
I think your college has your crook. Do you know someone named Blake? All that guy has done was vandalizing your page. Sky Above,Voice Within (talk) 16:20, November 21, 2013 (UTC)
 * yeah, the blog posts cannot be removed. They are your smallest concern, though, as he also blanked both your profile and user pages. I'd use the Vandalism in Progress but i don't know how it works, but i'll try to help out as much as i can. He made an account, so that's one step closer to the solution of the problem. Sky Above,Voice Within (talk) 16:34, November 21, 2013 (UTC)
 * Before, he was only an anonymous contributor, now he made an account, the one that vandalized your page. The name in his nickname (Blake) could help your college. Sky Above,Voice Within (talk) 16:43, November 21, 2013 (UTC)

Re User
Hi Alduin, well if he creates an account we can block him for a long time like with name but if he uses only a "A Wikia Contributor" with IP we can only block for at the most 3 days. Has he got another one going right now? 16:32, November 22, 2013 (UTC)
 * Itsnotmeblake has been blocked for 3 months by TombRaiser, the other account he used has been blocked by her too, but only for a very short time. Not at the moment though but he hasn't used it since yesterday. If he uses it again we can keep blocking him. But that's unfortunally the only thing we can do. I'm sorry for you that you have this problem with this person. I understand exactly how it must be as I have myself been through this sort of thing. 16:56, November 22, 2013 (UTC)

Blocking an user
Hello again Alduin, i was wondering what's the procedure for blocking an user. Dovahkiin217 is spewing senseless crap over and over, as seen in this thread : http://elderscrolls.wikia.com/wiki/Thread:411220. Could you report him to an admin or something? Thanks. 14:01, December 4, 2013 (UTC)
