Re:Cutter edit
Eb, you're almost due for another talk page archive. At any rate, I feel almost embarrassed. Three admins interacted with the editor and viewed the page before anyone caught. Funny thing is: I had just finished editing his talk page to tell him how impressed I was with the amount of content he added to the article, only to find out it was entirely lifted from UESP. Ah well, by the way, I finally updated the policies and guidelines for bad usernames. Wanna check it out and give me some feedback? I tend to make large edits like that without getting input from others. Most of the time, the rest of you guys just agree with my proposed policy revisions, but I want to make sure. Another thing: any word about the member of the month award? Are we postponing it for some reason? We haven't had a user featured on the main page for it since, like, July. :) -- 23:51, December 1, 2013 (UTC)
 * I'm sorry for you loss. Hang in there, girly. Good luck with your move. If I was around, I'd help you pack and move. :P Where do you work? What do you do for a living? When I started editing here, I was unemployed and had tons of free time. Since, I've had two different jobs. Right now, I work in a call center as a CSR. Mostly technical support, sales, and customer service. I also do team leader sometimes, which is essentially a back-up manager pulled when there are not enough managers on the clock. Thanks for the info about the MOTM. I was considering nominating someone now, actually, but it's not a big deal. Soon here, I'm going to write a blog or post in the forum, reminding editors of how to report vandalism, since the role-playing threads block out the RC so much. Also, I'm considering using it as a campaign to recruit potential patrollers. For example, I'll mention that with the influx of edits that TESO will bring, we'll need more dedicated vandalism patrollers and list the requirements. Hopefully, key word there, it will convince more people to edit in the mainspace. -- 00:31, December 2, 2013 (UTC)
 * Same here, girl. Literally, I wake up, hop on my laptop, walk to work, and sit in front of another computer screen for 8 hours straight, then walk home, and spend the rest of the night on the computer. I spend more time online, before a digital screen, than anything else. It makes my boyfriend mad, hahah, because he's an athlete. Kinda pathetic, but life is so technologically-reliant, it's difficult to function in society without intense computer skills. -- 15:53, December 2, 2013 (UTC)
 * Cool. I noticed a while ago that you guys were debating about the inclusion of a lead on book articles. Just an FYI, before I even knew about that, I added a section about that to SF:BOOK. Check it out if you're interested. -- 06:38, December 3, 2013 (UTC)
 * Glad I could teach you something. See, I am good for something after all ;). At any rate, the  code is not crucial, but it is helpful and saves time. It's quite tedious to put apostrophes before and after every paragraph. Really, putting two apostrophes at the very start of the in-game text, and at the very end of the entire thing achieves the same effect. I find my method to be cleaner and neater. Also, I have this weird OCD thing about "saving" wiki space. I.e. using less characters is somehow better. Granted, less characters helps the page load faster for the reader, and helps the editing window open faster, if there's less data to load, but something so miniscule would have no detectable affect. -- 07:08, December 4, 2013 (UTC)

Becoming admin
Hi my names Ryan and i love Skyrim. I have spent many hours playing it and have started over playing many times. I wanted to see how i could go about get a position as an admin on this wiki and what i would have to do.
 * Thanks for the help i have started to edit and help others on issues they are having with followers or easy ways to get money. I will continue to work and hopefully soon be nominated. Thanks.Dorkwad the Dark Elf (talk) 02:25, December 11, 2013 (UTC)

PNG images
Not sure if you were planning on doing this, but could I convince you to delete the jpgs you're replacing with pngs? That would really help us lower the list of unused files. Thanks :) -- 20:09, December 10, 2013 (UTC)
 * Wasn't sure if you were planning on doing it already. Figured I would remind you either way. :) -- 20:26, December 10, 2013 (UTC)

Unused Images
Hey there! Sure, I can explain it. Back when I had free time (pre-children), I took a whole heap of screenshots of characters and locations in Morrowind. A lot of those characters didnt have pages at the time, but I uploaded them for when they WERE added. (being easy then to add an image, if it existed). Many of those pages are now created, and you and others have been going through and improving a lot of the images. So yes, by all means, if there are better copies out there (png, for example) feel free to get rid of them. They were only really added there to remove them from the Unused Files list (Which I was reducing down to a meaningful level, and got about as far as F or G. :( Ah well. Anyways, hope that clears things up. Timeoin•Say G'Day•View my work 12:34, December 11, 2013 (UTC)

Help
EbonySkyrim, Deyid Petteys blocked me for taking off classes while I was editing. You told me not to put classes on the article but Deyvid blocked me because I did what you said. I'm not sure what to do. Can you help me? EternalScroll (talk) 19:19, December 14, 2013 (UTC)EternalScroll
 * The block was probationary, only to stop the disruptive edits so you could read the talk page. I believe the class name should be included in both the infobox and lead. Why not? The reason we don't list classes in other articles, mainly, is because a). most of our expansive content is from Skyrim where there are no clear class structures and b). most of the Morrowind articles did not exist until very recently. The more useful information we can add to articles, the better. -- 19:29, December 14, 2013 (UTC)
 * I don't really know what to do with this class thing. I get what you are saying and understand, but Deyvid Petteys put a probational block on me just because I was trying to take the class stuff off. I don't really know what to do with him other then put the classes on. EternalScroll (talk) 22:02, December 14, 2013 (UTC)

NPC leads
Hey Ebony! As we were talking about earlier, I have started the discussion on creating a new standard on how we word the NPCs introduction lead. Check it out here. :) — TombRaiser  SPEAK!  01:35, December 15, 2013 (UTC)

Duplicate Images
I see you are already on top of the duplicate images used by HumbleDaedricServant, I appreciate it.

It was a community directive some time ago to remove/replace all images with names like those images have as well, because they are clearly copies of images that already exist. Mostly this was to prevent intersite image plagiarizing, and it makes even less sense to reupload images already present on this wiki.

Having those duplicates may make it more confusing to users trying to use those images on other articles or their personal pages or whatever.

I may mark those images for deletion based on the two reasons above, but I would like to allow HumbleDaedricServant time to correct his page before those images are removed.
