'''Welcome to my talk page. Don't be a dick.'''



Sect stubs
Hi there, please do not add the in articles, in some articles there was already a stub template. We use the instead at the bottom. There is no need for several stubs in an article. Thanks 13:55, December 17, 2013 (UTC)

Sorry, I'll make sure not to do it in the future, thanks for telling me. Flugsmith (talk) 14:33, December 17, 2013 (UTC)

Ariela
Hello. I am not sure if you are the one who did it, but you Edited the page about her and you put Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind when she is from Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion. I Edited and changed it back to Oblivion.

Yeah, I think that was me. Apologies, I don't what I was thinking. Thanks for correcting it :) Flugsmith (talk) 16:12, December 22, 2013 (UTC)

Quotes
Hello,Im interested in helping you add a quote for every character in Skyrim,perhaps so,can I help you out? M.Owen LFC! Say Hi! stalk 17:23, December 26, 2013 (UTC)


 * Yeah sure, I would appreciate it if you helped out. At the moment I am doing them a city at a time, as its easier to keep track that way. Thanks in advance :). Flugsmith (talk) 18:30, December 26, 2013 (UTC)

RE: Necessary Articles?
I think it's safe to assume that these are actual characters from in-game, unless otherwise stated (e.g. Vikalar Skull-Shatterer). Reading the stuff from the interactive map, it's made clear that it's either in-game dialogue, or from a journal, notes, letter, etc, much of which references characters and events confirmed to appear in ESO.

Why the revert?
Hey can you please explain to me why you reveted my edit. Here i can show you a link http://elderscrolls.wikia.com/wiki/Elisa_Pierrane?diff=1316457&oldid=1316455 thanks please tell me Crazy131 (talk) 17:48, January 10, 2014 (UTC)


 * I reverted your edited because there was a mistake, and the rest was unneeded. The mistake was 'Breaton', which is spelt 'Breton'. The rest, well, perhaps it could have stayed. But, I felt the former edit was worded fine, and did not need changing. Mostly the spelling error though. Okay, nothing personal. Flugsmith (talk) 17:56, January 10, 2014 (UTC)
 * However I think other than that mistake I it read better however so I think my information was pretty good so but I need another opnion Crazy131 (talk) 18:00, January 10, 2014 (UTC)


 * Maybe I was a bit hasty with the revert once I saw the spelling error. I apologize. Feel free to reword the article again, looking over the article again, I see you morive. Watch for spelling errors though. Flugsmith (talk) 18:02, January 10, 2014 (UTC)

Unproductive category-adding
Thanks for telling me. I've been watching his edits ever since he added that a character's name means "buckle" in Icelandic. However, i'll have to wait until my connection clears up, as it is barely usable by now (hence the late reply). Hopefully, one simple warning will make him stop. 19:58, January 12, 2014 (UTC)


 * Sure thing, I'll leave a warning next time :). Flugsmith (talk) 22:28, January 12, 2014 (UTC)

Thanks for telling me about the categories.

Sincerely (talk) 21:27, January 18, 2014 (UTC)

Reverting all of my edits
Flugsmith,

I understand now about me changing Background to Combat: that section wasn't even supposed to be there. I think you may not have noticed some of the other edits I've been making to those pages.

When I add which Daedric Prince they serve, I am getting my information from within the wiki, on their pages from oher games. If the problem is I a not referencing my edits, I will be sure to do so in the future

Sincerely (talk) 22:16, January 19, 2014 (UTC)


 * Ok, I've been removing the edits that state Daedra as serving a specific prince. Since  is not out yet, we cannot state points, such as which Prince they serve, as this information is unconfirmed. Please don't add anymore info like this, until you can fully, and comprehensibly source, and prove your claim. Thanks. Flugsmith (talk) 22:26, January 19, 2014 (UTC)

Re:Daedra serving Mehrunes Dagon?
I'm sorry, I will check my references more in the future.

Sincerely (talk) 22:35, January 19, 2014 (UTC)

Re:Removing Redlinks
My logic was that people will know to link certain things if they are not linked on the page, if they try to pull up the page they're bound to find out it doesn't exist, and better yet create the page. The redlinks just make the page look unprofessional for no good reason. Zippertrain85 (talk) 23:22, January 23, 2014 (UTC)
 * I see your reasoning, but redlinks are there for a reason. Yes, redlinks may look a bit shabby and make the article look untidy. But, if there are no redlinks to warn editors, admins and patrollers that that page requires creation, than there is a possibility it will be missed out and not created all together. Please don't remove redlinks in the future as it is unhelpful to the wiki. If you feel I am wrong, feel free to ask an admin on the issue, and if I am wrong, fair play.

I understand. It kind of hints editors of pages they can work on, that makes sense. I won't do it again. Zippertrain85 (talk) 17:41, January 24, 2014 (UTC)
 * Alright, thanks. Also remember to put an indent after replying to a message, it makes it easier to read :). On source mode its the 'colon' key.

My Edits
I was unaware of said policy and I thank you for informing me. I was just using the UESP's to fill some of the many many many blanks the Morrowind articles have. Had I not used some of the info the pages I edited would be mostly blank. I looked at some of the other "Writ for" Morag Tong Quests and they were strikingly similar to the UESP version. Like the Writ for Toris Saren page, it was almost identical to the UESP version. Harold Burned-Mane (talk) 14:25, January 25, 2014 (UTC)
 * Okay, thanks. When you say they were similiar, do you mean they were like that before you added the UESP content? Also please could you remove the stuff you took from UESP, wouldn't want them getting angry now, would we.
 * The Link I posted to the Writ for Toris Saren above is from the history, its from before I edited it. If you click on the link and the one from the UESP you can see that they are almost identical. In fact whoever wrote those only took out a few sentences that were in parenthesis from the UESP. Harold Burned-Mane (talk) 14:40, January 25, 2014 (UTC)

Dark Brotherhood (Lore)
It's an ok article, there are many that are in worse states and I've seen you working on it for some time now. But if I had time to do it, I'd rewrite the page in places.

Major things I see are:


 * I'm not sure if all mentions of player character and games have been removed. I removed some of them, but not all.


 * Notable characters section include all members we known, that's not really correct. Minor members can be left to specific game pages. The section should be filtered out reorganized. It also look ugly just being a long thin list of names.


 * Notable sanctuaries section also needs to be filtered. Minor mentions can be left to the history section.


 * Page has many quote and picture issues, we have to make all of this work in layouts of different sizes.

--Ikabite (talk) 14:47, January 25, 2014 (UTC)
 * Okay thanks. I'll try to focus more on those areas whilst editing the page. Perhaps the notable members should be filtered into Night Mother, Listeners, and Black Hand members? And maybe a few others such as Veezara, the last Shadowscale.

RE:My Edits
Hey Flug, I've started to fix the pages I previously edited so they don't look like the UESP pages. I would rather not remove all the info...so the pages don't stay blank like they were before. So I've rewritten most of what was there. Here and here are the pages I've already changed. See if this is ok, if its not contact me and I'll remove and/or change it more. Harold Burned-Mane (talk) 20:12, January 25, 2014 (UTC)
 * I've finished fixing all my edits on the Morrowind pages and have also fixed two other Writ quests that where almost identical to the UESP. You are welcome to take a look and see if they are all according to the policies. Harold Burned-Mane (talk) 22:26, January 25, 2014 (UTC)
 * Woah, nice job. The pages are great, although, the layout is still very similiar to the UESP page still. I doubt that is a problem though. Thanks for being so easy-going :). And remember, if you see any UESP plagiarism going around the site. Don't hesitate to warn the person or an admin about there wrong-doings. Thanks again for helping out.
 * Thank you and will do. I already change two more pages that were almost identical to the UESP ones. Its hard to keep the info but make it look different than the UESP but its not impossible. As for the layout well there is no other way to make a quest page layout than Summary, Quick Walkthrough, Walkthrough, Reward; as that is the layout used in all other quest pages(Wiki and UESP). Harold Burned-Mane (talk) 13:13, January 26, 2014 (UTC)
 * Alright, thanks alot. I'll try and help out if I have the time. :)

Re:Removal of Services?
I'm sorry, I don't even remember doing that. If I did it mistake, I'm really sorry and I won't do it again. Zippertrain85 (talk) 00:28, January 27, 2014 (UTC)

RE:Unneccesary Categorising?
Hi, Flugsmith. Actually, after reviewing the category on these pages, I do think that those shop locations should have the Skyrim: Shops category, as there is no other category defining the place as a shop, only that it is a location in Skyrim or location in such-and-such Hold. The only shop location pages that have specific defining categories are Skyrim: Alchemy Shops and Skyrim: Inns and Taverns. And, categories like Skyrim: General Goods Merchants or Skyrim: Blacksmiths actually belong on a character's page instead of the shop's location page. — TombRaiser  SPEAK!  02:32, January 27, 2014 (UTC)
 * Ok, thanks alot. Just wanted to make sure. :)

Catagory.
Can you please stop undoing the pages when I add the "Online: Creature Stubs" catagory? It's an existant catagory and it does seem to have a purpose due to all of the Stub creature pages on the Elder Scrolls: Online articles. So if you could stop doing that it would appriciated. Thanks. Shor&#39;s Bones (talk) 17:49, January 29, 2014 (UTC)
 * Zipper, did you see my message on your talk? The category is there for future purposes or extremely short articles. I only have this opinion because I saw an admin or patroller(I can't quite remember say this to another user) say this to another user.

Delete templates
Please stop removing delete templates from pages. They are there for a reason. If you have a problem, contact an administrator, but please don't remove them because you feel like it.

Sincerely (talk) 23:00, February 1, 2014 (UTC)
 * I removed those pages frmo the deletion candidates category because they are not in need of deletion. Every bit of information helps on the wiki. 11:31, February 2, 2014 (UTC)

Lifts-Her-Tail
Flugsmith,

If my version of the page is just as good as the last one, then why keep undoing it? Please stop, let's end this now.

Sincerely (talk) 13:13, February 2, 2014 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I just thought that. I think we may be both right, as "in the employ" is correct as well. Just remeber not to just revert a revert. Contact someone on their talk page. 13:15, February 2, 2014 (UTC)

Lifts-Her-Tail
Flugsmith,

If my version of the page is just as good as the last one, then why keep undoing it? Please stop, let's end this now.

Sincerely (talk) 13:16, February 2, 2014 (UTC)

Never mind, I guess we are both right

Sincerely (talk) 13:16, February 2, 2014 (UTC)
 * Oops, I guess that disagreement was kind of pointless. :P 13:17, February 2, 2014 (UTC)

Dark Brotherhood (Lore)
Hey Flug, amazing job done on the DB Lore page. Sorry about never responding to your questions, I've been pretty busy, but I see it was taken care of. Hopefully as more info is added and Online comes out, the page can be GA or FA.

Happy editing! — AutoBlood  Talk  00:56, February 7, 2014 (UTC)
 * Wow, thanks alot for the compliment! I know I wasn't the only one who put time into the article, I mean you were working on it long before me! And yeah, with the state the article is in now, the added content from Online has the potential to push it into the FA category. Thanks again for noticing :). 18:22, February 7, 2014 (UTC)

Re:Sorry you feel that way
I am so sorry. I've gone back and I've seen how your edits have been productive. The Jesus stuff is kinda funny, too. I think I was wrong about you. I think it's that messages set my impressions of people =D

PS you have my full support to become a patroller!

Re:Landmarks

 * I was under the impression that the "Landmarks" category was subjective, but if it's factual, I'll make sure to undo my edits on other pages I put it on. Thanks for telling me. :) I am Sylar (talk) 18:54, February 9, 2014 (UTC)

Re: Stubs
Thanks, Flugsmith. I kinda forgot about the rules on that. I've removed the stubs from other Online pages, too :)

Vandalism Reporting
Thanks Flugsmith, I was wondering how you guys were doing it like that I will remember that in the future :) Ghost Anubis (talk) 15:59, February 15, 2014 (UTC)

Re:Ned1230

 * Yeah, TombRaiser told me. I'm not sure why he didn't clear that up with me though. Since I did warn him about deleting messeages. I am Sylar (talk) 18:57, February 15, 2014 (UTC)

Patroller
You are now a patroller! Congrats! Keep up the good work. :) —TombRaiser  SPEAK!  22:54, February 15, 2014 (UTC)

 * Congratulations on becoming a patroller :D Fire Wolf Pup (talk) 23:15, February 15, 2014 (UTC)


 * Nice job on becoming a Patroller Flugsmith! I think you'll do great with it, and I'm glad you have it. :) I am Sylar (talk) 00:36, February 16, 2014 (UTC)
 * Thanks alot Tomb, Sky, FWP and Zipper. Hope I can benefit the wiki with my newly-found patrollership. :D. Flugsmith (talk) 10:31, February 16, 2014 (UTC)
 * Thanks! Lol. You keep up the good work too! :D Fire Wolf Pup (talk) 11:58, February 16, 2014 (UTC)

Reverting vandalism
Hallo Flugs, thanks for beating me to it reverting and reporting the recent vandalism, but, next time, could you use the rollback tool? That way, the recent changes page isn't clogged with vandalism and its removal. Thank you. 21:19, February 18, 2014 (UTC)

Re:Vandalism in Progress

 * Alright, thanks for telling me. :) I am Sylar (talk) 15:47, February 19, 2014 (UTC)

Re: Hey Ghost
Hey Flugsmith, I appreciate your message. I have been reconsidering, for the past few days & I believe I will stick around for a while to see what happens. I didn't know about how he was in the past, I didn't start editing much until a few weeks ago, but I noticed it pretty quickly. Thank you, I try to give good edits & I enjoy helping the wiki, it's not foreverybody but I do enjoy it :P Ghost Anubis (talk) 23:22, February 19, 2014 (UTC)

Re:The Re-Evalutation

 * Yes, I definitely think they should, if one of them could, that would be great. I am Sylar (talk) 20:31, February 20, 2014 (UTC)

Screenshot Licensing?
Hello, I had a question about photo license procedure. I was adding a photo to Thunderbug (Online) and I'm not sure that I did it right. I tried to make sure I was following the steps to actually fill out the required fields for the uploaded photo. for the license part I got confused though and I'm just not aware of where to find the answer. the photo I added is just a screenshot from the game that was on a fansite. for licensing is it copyright by zenimax since it's just a screenshot?

I want to know how to do it right so I can correcty contribute and not just create hassle. your help is appreciated.

Mass Vandalism
Is there anyway to stop the mass vandalism that is currently happening on the mainspace? Because it doesn't looks] like any admins are going to check the VIP page, and he keeps messing up the pages. Thanks. Zippertrain85 (talk) 20:20, March 2, 2014 (UTC)
