SkyrimLocations finished
Hey Tomb, I think I'm done with Template:TestTemplate2. Do you want to look at it? Kroq-gar78 (talk) 20:23, March 11, 2013 (UTC)

Name missing
Hi Tomb, can you see the same as I on Thoring? The name is missing above the image and it's only half the size as it should be. I have seen this on a couple of others and I tried to "fix" it but I can't. Is there something wrong with it, assuming you too see it? EbonySkyrim (talk) 21:00, March 11, 2013 (UTC)


 * Fixed the issue. It was because of the "|name =" field being empty. :) — TombRaiser  SPEAK!  21:04, March 11, 2013 (UTC)
 * Ok, I'll remember that when I see any other page with the same issue. EbonySkyrim (talk) 21:09, March 11, 2013 (UTC)

Image not showing
Hi, I was adding the image File:Ogre's Teeth.png to Ogre's Teeth but it only shows 250px, it's the same template as S'jirra's Famous Potato Bread and when I test that image it works fine but not with the other?? EbonySkyrim (talk) 00:27, March 12, 2013 (UTC)
 * Hm, that´s strange. Thanks... I was a bit sad yesterday also and tried to occupy my brain. My friend who told me about Skyrim lost her 3,5 year fight with cancer and passed away last week. EbonySkyrim (talk) 06:28, March 12, 2013 (UTC)
 * Thanks, yeah and she was the one who found this Wiki and told me about it. We had an almost daily email contact for 3 years until last Christmas when she said she was too tired to sit and play as she did before. We used to compare our way of playing the game and send screens to eachother. She loved playing Skyrim. We saw eachother in person about 5-6 times only despite living in the same city but on opposite sides. I'm really going to miss her. Well, I managed fine today adding an image of the Daedroth Teeth so it was maybe a glitch on my side last night.. :) EbonySkyrim (talk) 19:19, March 12, 2013 (UTC)

ODST Greetings
Just like to say hi.

IRC privileges
Hey Tomb, For some reason I lost my IRC privileges on #TESWiki and was kicked from #TESWiki/Staff (didn't do anything, as far as I'm aware). Do you know what's going on? o_O Kroq-gar78 (talk) 22:04, March 15, 2013 (UTC)


 * Don't know why that happened. D: I'll check it out in a few minutes and see what I can do. — TombRaiser  SPEAK!  22:09, March 15, 2013 (UTC)


 * Lol thanks ;) It looks like it was a Netsplit, and I think Elchzard kicked/de-op'd me/everyone to make sure nobody hijacked the channel. Kroq-gar78 (talk) 22:10, March 15, 2013 (UTC)


 * Haha, ah, okay. Well, at least you weren't singled out. :P — TombRaiser  SPEAK!  22:15, March 15, 2013 (UTC)

Burned out
Hey Tomb,

Ever since i got the year edit (and some massive edits on the Spartacus wikia), ive felt really burned out and have felt like ive had little to contribute to this wikia. Do you know of any jobs here that could use some attention, im needing a new goal/job to focus on and most of my jobs are completed.-Cheatcodechamp (talk) 07:41, March 16, 2013 (UTC)


 * Thanks, hopefully a project to focus on will get me back on track.-Cheatcodechamp (talk) 21:40, March 16, 2013 (UTC)

Question about a redirected page
Hi Tomb, I was going to add Amulet of Axes but discovered it used to be an article but it has been done to a redirect. Should it still be like that with the named jewelry or can I "open" it again? EbonySkyrim (talk) 07:48, March 16, 2013 (UTC)

hey do think u could help me out pleaze and like have a skype call or sumtin plz      Anal Ikea (talk) 05:45, March 17, 2013 (UTC)Anal Ikea

Azura
The Planes of Oblivion category needs to be removed from Azura. 08:10, March 17, 2013 (UTC)

Food items in Oblivion
Hi Tomb, I just thought about the food items in Oblivion as I did an image for the cheese wedge. Are they supposed to be only in ingredients? I saw there is a food template but is the foods in Oblivion on ingredient templates because one can use them to make potions? EbonySkyrim (talk) 22:08, March 18, 2013 (UTC)


 * It can be listed under food and ingredients, since in Oblivion they are used as both. But, use the OblivionIngreident template and just add the Oblivion: Food category. — TombRaiser  SPEAK!  22:17, March 18, 2013 (UTC)
 * Ok, got that :) EbonySkyrim (talk) 23:32, March 18, 2013 (UTC)

Phasing out templates?
Hey Tomb,

I just wanted to make sure that we're going to phase out the special Skyrim locations templates in favor of a single SkyrimLocations template. The reason I asked is because Little flying red balloon changed The Lover Stone (Skyrim) back to a specialized template and added the LocationID field to Template:SkyrimGuardianStones, but I wanted to make sure about discontinuing their use before undoing that user's edits.

Thanks :) Kroq-gar78 (talk) 23:38, March 18, 2013 (UTC)

Another adjusment
Hi Tomb, it's this one Diadem of Euphoria, I've resized the image as it's too big otherwise. EbonySkyrim (talk) 21:02, March 19, 2013 (UTC)


 * I just saw your edit about it. All done! :) — TombRaiser  SPEAK!  21:06, March 19, 2013 (UTC)

The Forlon Watchman
Hi again :) I just did that quest and found 2 pages, one with the ghost and one with his name. Grantham Blakeley and The Forlorn Watchman (Ghost). Should I merge these and if in that case, to which do you think? EbonySkyrim (talk) 23:04, March 19, 2013 (UTC)
 * He is a ghostly figure first, I had to check the journal entries. I can't remember if it says The Forlorn Watchman Ghost actually (will check it tonight), when he approaches. He then explains who he is but it isn't until the end of the quest when you release him in the ship he is named Grantham Blakely's Ghost. I have to check that again I think. EbonySkyrim (talk) 06:37, March 20, 2013 (UTC)
 * I had another look and he is called The Forlon Watchman when you first approach him. It's not until he speaks to you after following him for a while he says his name is Grantham Blakeley and then when you have released his body on the ship he is called by his name. EbonySkyrim (talk) 19:25, March 20, 2013 (UTC)

MAJOR PROBLEM!!!
User 99.67.197.208 has been committing acts of EXTREME Vandalism on several articles!!!! HELP!!!! Cpt. Nemo (talk) 23:35, March 19, 2013 (UTC)
 * I reverted the articles and reported him EbonySkyrim (talk) 23:38, March 19, 2013 (UTC)

Dawnguard?
I have Hearthfire & Dragonborn, finally, for PS3. Is Dawnguard worth the 20$? I don't know anybody that has bought it. I love Oblivion & Skyrim. I just never cared for being a vampire on either. It was more trouble than it was worth. In case you're wondering why I am bothering you, it says that you're an administrator so I respect your opinion since you obviously know Skyrim better than myself. Your opinion willbe greatly appreciated.

Sincerely, Christopher 71.28.245.123 14:59, March 20, 2013 (UTC)

You should've got everything the first week it came out! 50% off, great deal. And if you want Dragonbone weapons (strongest) and crossbows chances are yes

Suspect uesp image
Tomb, this image is the same as on the uesp skyrim. File:Skyrim Pics.jpeg, here http://www.uesp.net/wiki/File:SR-creature-Ice_Wolf.jpg I think he has just made it smaller. EbonySkyrim (talk) 20:01, March 20, 2013 (UTC)

Ring of Sanguine Unseen Wisdom
I recently renamed the Ring of Sanguine Unseen Wisdom article to fix a typo in the title. The page was orphaned prior to the rename. A redirect ("Ring of Sanguine Unseen WIsdom" -> "Ring of Sanguine Unseen Wisdom") was automatically created, which I imagine is unnecessary because it was orphaned and can probably be deleted. 10:09, March 22, 2013 (UTC)


 * It is an unnecessary redirect if nothing links to it, so I have deleted it. Thanks. — TombRaiser  SPEAK!  17:17, March 22, 2013 (UTC)

Many Thanks
Hey TombRaiser :) Thank you for welcoming me to the wiki. I fully intend to continue to use this wiki and improve it to the best of my abilities :D

P.S: My apologies if I have written this in the wrong place as I am still getting used to how the wiki works.

Many Thanks

Plug-ins and weapons
Hi Tomb, I'm trying to bring order of the Plug-ins in Oblivion, to clean and add to them and structure them (among all the other projects I've started :) ). But I'm not sure how it's thought it should be. Should there be a "main page" like The Thieves Den with the quest to acquire the location and the stuff like Dunbarrow Cove (Quest) and location article Dunbarrow Cove (Location). Or like on the Orrery main article with the journal entries added and so the quest.. sort of... Hope you see what I mean. EbonySkyrim (talk) 21:21, March 27, 2013 (UTC)
 * Oh, and another thing. I asked Jimeee but I suspect he didn't see it as I haven't got a reply. I found this article Durable Weapons with a lot of red links. Is the thought that there should be a seperate article for each of those weapons or has someone just added those as they thought it should be? EbonySkyrim (talk) 21:26, March 27, 2013 (UTC)
 * Ok, I can see The Thieves Den, Fighter's Stronghold and The Vile Lair with the same structure in the end. Main DLC article, location article and quest article? I was thinking of doing the smaller ones first now, Orrery and Wizard's Tower. Should I just add a quest article to Orrery or should that one be just the one article with the quest on the same page. Not much to write about it on a separate main, what do you think? I see that Wizard's Tower was merged in 2006 with Frostcrag Spire but the quest for that one is called Frostcrag Spire and the DLC is Wizard's Tower. It is a little confusing, that's my personal opinion. I would like to move everything to the Wizard's page and use the other for the actual quest. What do you think? Will start the weapons articles too, slowly :) EbonySkyrim (talk) 18:27, March 28, 2013 (UTC)
 * Hi Tomb, I redid the Orrery article. I added a quest template as there isn't much to say about the actual DLC more than what is said in 2 sentencies. I'm not sure about the bugs section and I added a new link to the DLCs on the official website. Does it look ok? EbonySkyrim (talk) 20:18, March 29, 2013 (UTC)

The Dra9onborn
Hay Tomb can you look at my page and tell me what you thing? The Dra9onborn (talk) 20:18, March 28, 2013 (UTC)

Signature
Thanks for fixing my sig the other day, I haven't had that happen on other wikis, and wasn't sure what was going on. Much appreciated! 23:44, March 28, 2013 (UTC)
 * No problem. I've seen it happen before, it's usually because the noinclude tags were missing. — TombRaiser  SPEAK!  04:41, March 30, 2013 (UTC)

Websites
do you know a websit that lets you make you own website and it be free? The Dra9onborn (talk) 02:37, March 30, 2013 (UTC)
 * You could try www.weebly.com. Or just do a search in google for "Free websites". — TombRaiser  SPEAK!  04:41, March 30, 2013 (UTC)

Armor mannequin glitch
Found a working fix for the armor mannequin duplication glitch, and i was wondering if you would make a video for me since i can't and it is hard to explain. P.S. I was sad when you deleted my page.


 * Your page was not deleted, it was moved here to the archive forum because the page you created was in the mainspace where only relevant articles should be created. It's not for suggesting methods of obtaining gear via glitches. Your page was best suited either for the forum or a blog. And, sorry, but no, I cannot create a video of this for you. — TombRaiser  SPEAK!  04:41, March 30, 2013 (UTC)


 * I don't know how to reply to posts so I'm just making a new one. My post you moved was not how to duplicate things, it was how to fix the glitch. So that you can put different items on the mannequin.


 * Yes, I know, and the information is identical to the page I linked you to. The page was first created out of a category, which is why that version was deleted and moved to the archive forum. Nothing else has changed. — TombRaiser  SPEAK!  02:05, March 31, 2013 (UTC)

Questions
I noticed that Morrowind weapon articles use a variety of formatting to indicate damage, including: "8 to 12", "8-12", and "8 - 12". I assume that it should be consistent across all the articles, so which format is preferred? I'd also like to know if a MW article with an image gallery should have the Gallery placed before or after Appearances? 18:07, March 30, 2013 (UTC) PS: I used the "Leave message" button, and when clicking "Show changes" all the other content on your talk page appears yellow as if it is going to be deleted if I click publish. I find this very odd, it doesn't happen on any of the other three wikis that I use. I'll cross my fingers and click publish, if something does go awry I'll undo it asap.


 * Definitely things should remain consistent in regards to format. Let's go with the "8-12" format. Seems like that is how it appears on most of the pages. The image gallery is never to be below Appearances, it should be above Trivia and Bugs. As for that issue with my talk page, I don't know why that happened or what to make of it, so I guess it resolved itself. — TombRaiser  SPEAK!  02:14, March 31, 2013 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the quick reply. About the yellow text issue, it occurs only (and consistently) when I do Show changes on all user talk pages after having used the Leave message button. It only occurs on this wiki, not on any others. It's weird but not really a problem, clicking Publish works as normal and nothing is actually deleted. 07:41, March 31, 2013 (UTC)

It's really frustrating
Hi Tomb, I'm not sure if it's the wiki or something on my computer but suddely last night, my night, I could do no editing. The dropdown menus where not working, clicking on the edit button just made the page "running and running" but it didn't come to the edit page. The images don't display most of them and then 2 hours later it worked... for 5 minutes. This morning is the same. I managed to edit for 5 minutes and then for an hour it's the same again! Finally it works again and I thought I would ask you if you have heard about any stuff going on for others or if the Wiki are doing anything so it doesn't work everywhere as I can see others are editing. EbonySkyrim (talk) 07:12, March 31, 2013 (UTC)
 * Don't really understand this. I managed to edit after I had posted here for about 30 minutes and then after that it was the same again. I'm now on my laptop and it seems to work here. I haven't a clue what's going on. I have unistalled and reinstalled Java, Adobe, Shockwave and so on and still there is problems. This has not been going on so long before. I have only experienced this a few times before and then only a few minutes.. Don't know what to do on my main computer no w. Have you heard about this problem before? EbonySkyrim (talk) 07:59, March 31, 2013 (UTC)
 * Hi, I just started the computer after being out for several hours and crossing fingers, it seems to work now. It looked like there was some issue with the javascript thing, at least that's what I think, as the issues where similar to what javascript do on a website. Keep you fingers crossed :) EbonySkyrim (talk) 16:50, March 31, 2013 (UTC)

More Vandalism
User 70.140.57.168 made some very trolling edits to the Daedric Sword page. Check history. Cpt. Nemo (talk) 16:12, March 31, 2013 (UTC)

Neloth Images?
If possible, here is a list for the page we talked about. Thanks! Jimeee (talk) 12:35, April 1, 2013 (UTC)
 * Neloth (arms folded if possible) observing the people at the earth stone.
 * Neloth talking to/berating Talvas in the tower.
 * Neloth standing or sitting reading a book.
 * Neloth leaning over a table.
 * In the middle of casting his two-handed divination during Old Friends
 * In the middle of combat, fighting a reaver outside Nchardak. A shot that captures his combat style, like shooting lightning etc. Maybe with his Whirlwind Cloak active too.
 * Neloth studying the control panels in Nchardak - something to illustrate his involvement in the quest.

Months
I was wondering if we should add months like Hearthfire, Last Seed, Frostfall, etc. Just wanted to make sure with you, I don't want any problems happening. ☞ Яǐɱ 20:04, April 1, 2013 (UTC)


 * If you mean to create individual pages for each month, then no, we don't need to do that, because they already exist but they are redirected to the Calendar page which gives detailed information about each month. — TombRaiser  SPEAK!  20:20, April 1, 2013 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the info, so should I just add the link and the elderscrolls.wikia.com/wiki/Calender#(Section name of Month) to a disambiguation page? ☞ Яǐɱ 04:11, April 3, 2013 (UTC)


 * They don't need to be disambiguated because they are redirects. Disambiguation is for listing multiple same named pages, and as far I as know only Hearthfire could be disambiguated, which is actually called "Heartfire" when talking about Calendar months. — TombRaiser  SPEAK!  17:24, April 3, 2013 (UTC)


 * Oh, I never really noticed that, and thanks. And as for my signature, I don't really know whats going wrong with the time. ☞ Яǐɱ ( Chat with Meh ) ( Updates )20:15, April 3, 2013 (UTC)
