Re: Image not showing
I don't know why it wasn't working. I was able to add it in with adjustable file sizes. :-\ — TombRaiser  SPEAK!  01:21, March 12, 2013 (UTC)

Amulet of Axes
This amulet is an item found in random loot, so that is why Amulet of Axes redirects to the Enchanted Jewelry (Oblivion) page. — TombRaiser  SPEAK!  16:09, March 16, 2013 (UTC)


 * It's not really a generic item like most other loot, so it probably should get it's own article. Mundane Ring is similar in that sense. Jimeee (talk) 14:56, March 18, 2013 (UTC)



Re: Hey
Hi Ebony,

Yeah I was looking at an older edit, and I realized that you already fixed it when I clicked "Newer edit". Sorry about that ;) Kroq-gar78 (talk) 19:55, March 16, 2013 (UTC)

Image request
Hey Ebony,

Im working on the articles missing information, and i came across Mage Apprentice. there are five or six apprentices if i remember rights and the article only has two of them. I was wondering if you could get the rest of the images for that article next time you are at the Arcane University.

Thanks and happy editing-Cheatcodechamp (talk) 22:25, March 16, 2013 (UTC)

Thanks Ebony. I'll do that from now.

MAJOR PROBLEM!!!
User 99.67.197.208 has been committing acts of EXTREME Vandalism on several articles!!! HELP!!! Cpt. Nemo (talk) 23:32, March 19, 2013 (UTC)

The Forlon Watchman
What is his name appear as when you approach him? It's been while since I've played to know for sure. Is it Grantham Blakeley or "The Forlon Watchman"? If it's his given name, then you can merge the (Ghost) article with the Grantham Blakeley article. — TombRaiser  SPEAK!  00:04, March 20, 2013 (UTC)


 * In that case maybe there should be two separate pages. Just like there are two separate pages for the Gray Fox and his other alias. — TombRaiser  SPEAK!  19:34, March 20, 2013 (UTC)

Possible vandalism
There appears to be some vandalism or just random weirdness on the page of Roggi Knot-Beard. Mainly at the bottom of the first paragraph and the bizarre-ness at the quote section. Just thought you may like to know. 76.231.196.191 11:03, March 20, 2013 (UTC)

Re: Plug-ins and weapons
I do like the structure that is used on The Thieves Den plug-in, so it would be nice to have the other plug-ins with the same structure.

As for the durable weapons. I don't see why they shouldn't have individual pages. In Skyrim, we have a page for the Supple Ancient Nord Bow and Honed Ancient Nord Sword. Those are similar to what the durable weapons of Shivering Isles represent. — TombRaiser  SPEAK!  02:05, March 28, 2013 (UTC)


 * Hey Ebony. Sorry for the delay in response, I've been busy entertaining my family visiting over Spring break. The Orrey page looks good and yeah, there is not much to be said about it since it's really just one quest, so the way you did it is fine.


 * The Wizard's Tower should be it's own page since that is the proper name of the plugin and the quest Frostcrag Spire to have it's own quest page. You already have the general idea of what needs to be done. :) — TombRaiser  SPEAK!  00:37, March 30, 2013 (UTC)

Pages not loading
Not sure what is going on, I looked in Community Central's tech updates and no one has reported any issues like this one. If it's only happening on your main computer then maybe you need to clear the cache. To force clearing the cache use CTRL+F5. Hopefully that will end the issue. — TombRaiser  SPEAK!  16:46, March 31, 2013 (UTC)

Re: Question about articles
Yes, I have deleted the page "Sump of Misery" as sublocations do not get their own pages. The other page "Kvatch Descendant Gate" should have it's contents moved to the quest page "Breaking the Siege of Kvatch". I don't think it's necessary for the Oblivion Gates to have a location page as all of the static gate locations are tied to quests and all information about the gate could be on the quest page. If they did have a separate location/quest page, I think the information on both pages would just be redundant. So, merging to the quest page would be the better outcome. — TombRaiser  SPEAK!  17:18, April 3, 2013 (UTC)

Image templates
Hey Ebony,

I just wanted to tell you that you can add simple image templates to add all the categories for you :P

For example, OblivionLocationImages, OblivionQuestImages, OblivionCharacterImages, etc.

Hope it helps ;) Kroq-gar78 (talk) 23:56, April 8, 2013 (UTC)

Spoilers
Hey there. You can just remove spoiler tags on sight. We shouldn't be using them anymore. Thanks! Jimeee (talk) 09:24, April 17, 2013 (UTC)


 * Everywhere. It's a pointless template. We are a wiki, and if the purpose of the site is to provide information, our content will contains spoilers by default. Jimeee (talk) 09:37, April 17, 2013 (UTC)
 * Yeah, the "Unless otherwise stated" part I see no benefit in having. It should be assumed. Jimeee (talk) 12:14, April 18, 2013 (UTC)

Raven Rock
Pfff..kollade history på Raven Rock (Dragonborn) i går eller i förrgår och såg att dessa "vandaler och troll" du nämnde hade egentligen alla försökt lägga till samma sak, åtminstone många av dem. En liten notering om en plats med samma eller liknande namn i Fallout 3. Är det bekräftat att det inte finns en referens till Fallout 3?

Pfff..checked history of Raven Rock (Dragonborn) yesterday or the day before yesterday, and found out that those "vandals and trolls" you mentioned actually did try to add the same thing, at least many of them. A little note about a location with the same, or at least a simular name in Fallout 3. Is it confirmed that there are no references to Fallout 3 within this location or its name?

Restore Health
Hi, I've noticed that you're very active with Oblivion, and was wondering if you'd be interested in creating a Restore Health (Oblivion) article? I'll be writing a corresponding article for Morrowind shortly, creating a disambig, and updating links - but I don't have Oblivion installed right now to help with writing an article for it. If you can find the time to get something up, or know of any other active users who are into Oblivion at the moment that might be willing to do it, that would be fantastic. By the way, your work with Oblivion images is awe-inspiring. I don't know how you get so much done so quickly, but it's really amazing! 16:16, April 20, 2013 (UTC)

First journal
Hi Ebony,

This is my first time making a journal table, so can you look over it please? It's at Contract: Kill Beitild. Thanks! :) Kroq-gar78 (talk) 19:40, April 20, 2013 (UTC)

Re: Smuggler's cave and Amulet
I think in the case of Smuggler's Cave, it's okay to have it as a separate article. That way it can be linked to in both Castle Anvil and the Thieves Den, explaining on the Smuggler's Den page it's function before and after the installation of the plugin.

As for the Arnora's Amulet being split, it really shouldn't, because one is actually called Arnora's Amulet and the other Arnora's True Amulet in the game. Even though information on the two pages may be similar, they're still unique individual items. — TombRaiser  SPEAK!  16:47, April 22, 2013 (UTC)


 * Yeah, for the amulets, their separate pages should stay, and not contain identical information, since they are not the same. You could also upload two separate images too, if you wanted.


 * You are correct in fixing the Interactions/Quests headers the way you did in the page M'desi. You might take a look at it again though, as there appears to be two Interactions headers. :) — TombRaiser  SPEAK!  22:41, April 22, 2013 (UTC)

Re: Bug
It's been so long that I've played that part, but I don't recall encountering a glitch, I'm sure I would have known if there were problems with my playthrough. If you can't get the wall down to get to Mucianus Allias, perhaps try clipping through the wall with 'tcl' and wait for the journal to update. I don't know what to suggest about the other issues. — TombRaiser  SPEAK!  17:36, April 25, 2013 (UTC)


 * About the Oblivion CS, are you loading the data set (Oblivion.esm) after you launch the program? (File --> Data... --> Oblivion.esm) A valid source has to be selected in order to retrieve information from it. If you have done that, and nothing still comes up, then maybe there is something wrong with the CS you downloaded. Where did you download it from?


 * As for the effects not going away, the only other suggestion I have to offer is either uninstalling Oblivion and installing it again, or running the "Verify game cachce" option in the Steam properties window for Oblivion. Before doing any of that you should make a backup of your save file just to be safe. — TombRaiser  SPEAK!  00:30, April 26, 2013 (UTC)


 * Sorry that you are having so much trouble with this, the last thing I can think of is a console command that is supposed to dispel all spell effects. Select your character, and enter the command . I really hope that works. *fingers crossed* — TombRaiser   SPEAK!  20:34, April 27, 2013 (UTC)


 * I found this while trying to search for a solution to the problem you're having, it sounds similar to what you are experiencing, so maybe if you try the method in the #4 comment, it may solve your issue. — TombRaiser  SPEAK!  23:32, April 28, 2013 (UTC)
 * Glad to help and to hear that solution worked to fix the issue! I know it would have sucked to have to start a new character all over again. :) — TombRaiser  SPEAK!  20:09, April 29, 2013 (UTC)

Adamus Phillida
You recently edited the Adamus Phillida article. One of the changes was moving the "assassination" subsection down to under "Prrsonality," with the edit summary "formatting." Could I ask more specifically what the reason for this is? It seems to me that he events of his death are more appropriate for the "biography" section than "personality." I can see it being put there because of the quote, but I think it would be better to only move the quote, and leave the stuff about his death under "biography" or maybe "involvement." --LeDaea (talk) 01:47, April 28, 2013 (UTC)
 * I understand the reasoning, but his death doesn't really have anything to do with how he treats the player. I was just trying to keep the formatting consistent with the style guide. Though actually, I checked it again, and "Biography" isn't even a heading that shows up there, which I think is the problem. Background, Personality, and Interactions are all listed as major sections of an article. I think it would be reasonable to separate the Assassination, as you say, and put it under Interactions somewhere, since it's neither Background info about the character (since it occurs in-game), nor Personality. That would put it after both of those sections. Would that be better? --LeDaea (talk) 12:17, April 28, 2013 (UTC)

Editing Question:
Which is the proper grammer:

Master Robes of Destruction "is"

Strange ID's
Hi Ebony,

By the way, I just saw your page when it was exactly at 12,000 edits :D congrats~

Anyway... can you check Fimmion's ID's if Oblivion is working for you? They ID's start with two zeros, but, as far as I know, all DLCs' ID's start with xx. Kroq-gar78 (talk) 00:58, April 30, 2013 (UTC)


 * Woah, didn't realize that. Can you add that to the xx page about how Shivering Isles is the exception? I'm not quite sure how to word it... Thanks for the info, and glad to hear that Oblivion's working again ;) Kroq-gar78 (talk) 01:23, May 1, 2013 (UTC)

Re: Quest
Not a stupid question, but yes those quests should be separate. One called The Necromancer's Amulet (Quest) and the other The Bloodworm Helm (Quest). — TombRaiser  SPEAK!  22:12, April 30, 2013 (UTC)


 * Don't worry, you're not going crazy, it was there before. I removed the lead from the OblivionQuests template, so it doesn't automatically add the "PAGENAME is a quest available in ." — TombRaiser  SPEAK!  21:39, May 1, 2013 (UTC)


 * Yeah, that's the way it's going to be now. That template can be edited by anyone, so feel free to fix the links to the correct quests. — TombRaiser  SPEAK!  21:59, May 1, 2013 (UTC)


 * You can still add a leads to quest pages as long as it's not the old standard phrase. I'll be removing the auto-added leads from the SkyrimQuests and MorrowindQuests templates too. — TombRaiser  SPEAK!  00:08, May 2, 2013 (UTC)

Re: Tables and colors
The table colors should all be the same, the grey-black version. So, if you see any that aren't using the standard, then you can change them. I've also fixed the color scheme for the ShiveringIslesClothing template. — TombRaiser  SPEAK!  18:26, May 6, 2013 (UTC)

Oblivion Daedric quests
Hi Ebony,

I remember a while ago you said you were going to start moving information away from the Daedric Shrines in Oblivion into their own quest articles. I see you've done this with Peryite (Quest), but which others have you done? I'm thinking of making a category called "Oblivion: Daedric Quests", similar to how one for Skyrim already exists, but I want to make sure there are more than two articles before making the category :P Kroq-gar78 (talk)


 * Heh, yeah. I've been reading the talk pages and have seen that you've committed yourself to a lot of stuff ;) Anyway, no rush. I'll create the category (and page, as you've suggested) now. Kroq-gar78 (talk) 22:54, May 8, 2013 (UTC)


 * Ok, I've created Category:Oblivion: Daedric Quests and the page Daedric Quests (Oblivion), but I've seen some problems with the rewards. One, in Oblivion is it "Spellbreaker" or "Spell Breaker"? The page is named the latter, while in the article Peryite (Quest) it's called the former but still links to the latter.


 * Another problem I've seen is with Masque of Clavicus Vile. Is it called "Clavicus Vile's Masque" or "Masque of Clavicus Vile" in Oblivion? Also, the page is a complete mess, and we'll have to clean it up.


 * Anyway, that's an overview of what I've been doing for the past 5 mins :P Kroq-gar78 (talk) 20:55, May 11, 2013 (UTC)


 * Ok I've created a new article called Masque of Clavicus Vile (Oblivion) and moved some stuff out of Clavicus Vile's Masque, but the former is still pretty incomplete :( Kroq-gar78 (talk) 00:47, May 12, 2013 (UTC)

Tribunal icon?
Hi Ebony,

Do you know of any icon for ? I've found one for Bloodmoon, but I currently need one for the Stub template. It shows the Skyrim icon otherwise :( Kroq-gar78 (talk) 23:42, May 11, 2013 (UTC)

Random loot
I felt the Amulet of Axes was notable and had a unique enchantment that warranted it's own page because it is vital for players who want to achieve 100% Reflect Damage. Not all random loot should have its own page, so really it's a judgement call on what you think warrants it's own page. If it's just 20 points Spell Absorption, then it's probably not really notable. Hope that helps.

Jimeee (talk) 15:05, May 16, 2013 (UTC)
 * Is the enchantment unique or rare? (like the Amulet of Axes)
 * Is there a location where it is very likely or guaranteed to spawn?

Re:Opinion about style
The use of sub-headers in the Walkthrough section are really for those long walkthroughs that need separation for clarity. Numbered lists are usually reserved for the Quick walkthrough section, however, I can see how using a numbered list in "Finding the Thieves Guild" could be a reasonable exception, being that are three different ways to find them; I don't think the walkthrough is long enough to need sub-headers for each of the three points. I did do a preview of how the page would look with the use of sub-headers, and it turns out looking very bunched up on the page, because how little information there is in each point. — TombRaiser  SPEAK!  17:44, May 16, 2013 (UTC)

Vandals
Hello. IDK if you can block users are if you know how to get in touch with an admin to do it, but these two are on a spree; 173.252.38.234 and 124.170.4.118. Thanks. Goddy5890 (talk) 11:56, May 17, 2013 (UTC)

Auto-lead removal
Hey Ebony, an update on the removal of the auto-leads added in templates. I've removed all of them from Oblivion, Shivering Isles, Dragonborn, and Knights of the Nine templates. Now since the leads have been removed, some pages like Ingredient pages need to be double checked to make sure the beginning sentences make sense. I'm looking through the Oblivion Ingredients pages for now. — TombRaiser  SPEAK!  18:50, May 17, 2013 (UTC)


 * That's okay, take your time on it. Just fixing the intro section is good enough for now. I also have to try to remember some of the information about the Oblivion ingredients, since the last time I played Oblivion was long ago. :) — TombRaiser  SPEAK!  20:21, May 17, 2013 (UTC)


 * You may want to ask Kroq-gar about the changes to the effect fields in the ingredient templates. — TombRaiser  SPEAK!  20:25, May 17, 2013 (UTC)

Re:Ingredients Shivering Isles
Hi Ebony,

I just copied over the changes to the main ShiveringIslesIngredients template, and, by looking at Heart of Order, it looks like it worked. I've also fixed MorrowindIngredients, if you're wondering. Thanks for the heads up, and tell me if there's anything that doesn't work ;)

Daedric Quests nav
Hi Ebony,

I just made the Daedric Quests Oblivion nav template, so can you add new quests to it when you make a new Daedric quest article in Oblivion? Also put that template at he bottom of the new pages. Thanks ;) Kroq-gar78 (talk) 05:32, May 19, 2013 (UTC)

Oblivion Walker
Hello Ebony, could you take a quick peak at Oblivion Walker page please. Think it could do with a major rollback, as 2 edits seem to have taken a huge chunk out of the article, cheers Lee VEGETA  talk 12:04, May 27, 2013 (UTC)
 * Thank you =) Lee VEGETA  talk 12:40, May 27, 2013 (UTC)


 * Cheers, I had a quick look at what the history of the article, and I think, well, more certain, that I might have lead you on a goose chase with that one. I may have seen an old email notification with the edits to it from a while back and thought it was a recent one.
 * I do apologize for that. Going back over it, I've only just realised the mistake I made. Sorry for wasting your time =) Lee VEGETA  talk 22:39, May 27, 2013 (UTC)


 * Cheers, I think it's just polite to apologize for my mistake lol. Thanks again. Lee VEGETA  talk 07:28, May 28, 2013 (UTC)

Inter wikia Favor
Hey Ebony,

Im moving tomorrow, and besides the fact ill be on the road form VA to Illinois all day i have a small concern.

A user, Tcr810, on the Breakout kings wikia, came to me for help to teach them the ropes on how to edit. I told them the basics, but im on my phone more times then not when i edit nowadays and the phone sucks when editing wikia. I need contacts for them if they need help tomorrow, and i feel your one of the few people who could help.

Im linking your name on my message to them on the BOK's wikia, if they need help they might come here. I doubt they will need help with anything about the show, but i can help with editing and codes from the road tomorrow.

I doubt they will ask, i just hate to leave them without any help for a day, i need the help over there and they are the only one on the wikia besides me.

Thanks and happy editing-Cheatcodechamp (talk) 07:08, May 30, 2013 (UTC)

Honeyside
Hey I noticed you like to edit, and thought if you had free time,you could possibly take a look at the page Honeyside, kinda feels weirdly written. Thanks.

Re: Image Servers
Wikia did have an update saying that their image servers would be offline for a few hours while they did maintenance. I think that was from yesterday, so either their still doing maintenance or there is a problem. I did see that you have been able to upload some images around 10 hours ago. — TombRaiser  SPEAK!  16:44, June 6, 2013 (UTC)

Re: Missing images
Are you talking about the images that are still needed for Oblivion characters? Because we have individual pages for vampire sub-types on the vampire page for Skyrim. If this is for Oblivion, and the vampire sub-types don't really have much info to add about them in an individual page, and you think all relevant information can be added in a neat table, then you can list them all on one page instead of making separate pages. Same with Mythic Dawn and Dremora.

And, the page Scourge Barrow was actually misspelled as well as misplaced like you thought. It's actually a location from Daggerfall, and it's Scourg Barrow. I've made the fixes. — TombRaiser  SPEAK!  05:46, June 11, 2013 (UTC)
