Work on Shrine pages
Hey Deyvid,

I was thinking about doing some work to templatize and cleanup the Divine Shrine pages (Shrine of Kynareth, Shrine of Mara, etc...). Right now things are somewhat chaotic, some of these pages are about specific locations which doesn't make a whole lot of sense since these shrines always exist in multiple locations. I would like to create a specific template for them, possibly a special category as well (we already have 'Skyrim: Daedric Shrines', so we could use add 'Skyrim: Divine Shrines'). The idea is to make these pages more consistent, and more similar to Shrine of Talos which at least has a consistent lead.

Are you okay with this ? I will start with the Shrine of Akatosh page as it's the only one (out of the 9 divines) that doesn't exist yet.

Dinerdefilles (talk) 20:52, April 2, 2012 (UTC)

A quick update on this. Right now, the Shrine of Mara page is pretty much completed. The other shrine pages will follow a similar model, some are nearly complete as well. You'll notice the Shrine of Mara page doesn't have the Locations category, mainly the page is more about the shrine - the object, rather than a specific location. But one could argue that since locations are listed it, it should be in that category. I don't have a strong opinion on this.

Morrowind overhaul project
On most of the morrowind pageg it says the article is a part of a overhaul and needs help editing. since i have been doing alot of work on these pages i want to know if i should remove these once a large amount of work has been done, move them if works been done, or keep them regardless of work done.

Cheatcodechamp (talk) 02:43, April 6, 2012 (UTC)


 * I'll answer this one instead: Yep! When its been added, remove them :) Same with the stubs, too. A lot of pages won't ever have a lot of text on them, but if they are complete, then they're complete :) Timeoin•Say G'Day•View my work 03:11, April 6, 2012 (UTC)

Cheevo Archive Wiki Affiliation Request
Hello! I am Tawatson representing the Cheevo Archive Wiki. You are probably wondering "who the hell is this freak?!" but hear me out!

Cheevo Archive Wiki is a wiki dedicated to listing the achievements on PS3 and XBox games and how to get them. The lists vary in detail, and the affiliation with the Elder Scrolls Wiki will help the process of adding more content to both wikis.

General Credentials
Here is a list of facts that could support us both. The above facts and the current affiliates (as of April 6th 2012 AEST):
 * 1) We impressed ALL of the Wikia Staff through the expansion of the wiki
 * 2) In one month we managed to:
 * Gain Wikia Spotlight
 * Break 250 Page Mark
 * Assassin's Creed Wiki
 * Battlefield Wiki
 * Call of Duty Wiki
 * Minecraft Wiki
 * Splintercell Wiki
 * Uncharted Wiki
 * Infamous Wiki

I have seen you have affiliation with AC Wiki. If you need to ask them about us, refer to D. Cello and what he thinks of us...

I thank you for reading this all... I have bored you to death enough. Thanks for considering us...

Daedric Armor (Skyrim)
Hi Deyvid =)!

Can you unlock the Daedric Armor (Skyrim) page or edit it for me? It is written in the intro that "Daedric Armor ranks above Ebony armor and below Dragon armor in terms of attributes.", but it's false since the Daedric Armor has the highest base armor value and therefore it is above the Dragon Armor in a neutral and general consideration (without perks or something). People without the specific perks can be mislead by this.

Thanks in advance and good day! Light-Revan (talk) 15:13, April 7, 2012 (UTC)

Cheevo Archive Wiki Afiliation Request
Hi Admins,

I am here on behalf of the Cheevo Archive Wiki in order to make a request of the Elder Scrolls Wiki. I have already contacted other admins on this wiki, however did not recieve a reply so i hope you can help me out.

Firstly, I guess I should give you a rundown on exactly what Cheevo Archive Wiki is. Well basically it is a wiki that was made in order to provide easily accessible guides and to Video Game (such as Skyrim) achievements/trophies. The wiki was formed on February 28th 2012 and so far is going pretty well. We were approved of Wiki Spotlight on the 22nd of March and are now working on getting some partnerships going with other affiliated Video Gaming wiki's such as this one.

So now the big question, would the Elder Scrolls Wiki Wiki be interested in forming some kind of affiliation/partnership? We would add a link to the ES wiki on our main page and add the ES Wiki to our list of Affiliated Wikis. We believe the partnership could be mutually beneficial.

I would be interested in hearing your thoughts on this request.

Thanks

Hey can you tell me how to get a picture from a dif site on my profile page? Thanks in advance for any advice/ taking the time to view this messege. 6 Xero 9 (talk) 03:41, April 20, 2012 (UTC)

advice
Hey,

Im not sure if im being of help here or just being a noisy snitch, but i have watching an editor for the last day or so and im starting to think he is badge hunting.

when ever he edits a page, instead of doing everything at once, he will publish each separate update (once do this 7 times on one article). He has done almost 300 edits in the last 2 days because of this.

I Recommended to him that he should be more careful, but im not sure if he cared (its also possible he never saw it, but i cant tell)

Before i start throwing names i want to know if im over reacting, if im not ill send you a link to him.

Sorry to bug you, and happy editing

Colored nicknames
Greetings!

I am the administrator of Russian The Elder Scrolls Wiki. We faced with a broblem on our site. We wanted to change the colors of nicknames of some useful members but css-file doesn't want to work... I couldn't solve the problem, so I am writing to you. I had a supposition that it doesn't work because of our cyrillic letters in nicknames, but after I saw that nicknames with English letters also hadn't been changed, I refused my thought of Russian alphabet.

Things, I've done are:
 * Created MediaWiki:Common.css/highlights.css
 * Imported to Common.css
 * Imported to Wikia.css

Maybe there are any more css files, that I hadn't created?

Hope you will help!

PS Sorry, if there are any mistakes, English is not my mother tongue, you know :)

Regards, 19:17, April 22, 2012 (UTC)

I'm not good at this coding stuff, nor am I deyvid but I can give you some advice. Try clearing your cache before refreshing, just last night I had a issue with my name not appearing in yellow, but after clearing cache it fixed, also try seeing if coding is corrupted/interfering with other coding. Mask2697 (talk) 19:23, April 22, 2012 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the advice but, unfortunately, it still doesn't work :( I tryed to find the mistakes for hundreds times, but still couldn't see any of them. 19:44, April 22, 2012 (UTC)


 * Ok, I'll try to ask Elch. Thanks a lot for your reply!:D  07:40, April 25, 2012 (UTC)

Good day. i was just wondering why Derkeethus, possibly the most notable Argonian as he is the only Argonian follower isn't on the 'notable argonians' section of the Argonians - Skyrim page. well, really i was hoping you could possibly add him in.

thank you for your time.

Have a look see please
Hey Deyvid, I took a stab at an article for a set of enchanted rings (one enchantment, 3 different rings, 3 levels of enchantment). Could you take a look at Ring_of_Aegis and let me know if this kind of treatment works for you? If it does, I'll go ahead and do the same for the other enchanted rings that use the same 3 rings.

BTW, am I the only one that's having a terrible time editing pages? I have to refresh a number of times before I finally get the edit mode to load. Thanks, GramsJ (talk) 03:06, April 27, 2012 (UTC)

I NEED HELP!
There's something funny happening to me, and I don't know what it is. I don't know if it's just the computer and it's freezing up or something, but I'm unable to leave comments on blogs and and other comments made on blogs. Am I blocked or something??

Lore character infobox.
Greetings, green-named person,

I wasn't sure whom to ask, so I am asking this to you. Is there a proper template for lore-character infobox? One that's similar to Skyrim, Oblivion, Morrowind etc. NPC infoboxes.

Sorry for bothering you,

Ikabite (talk) 08:11, May 1, 2012 (UTC)

RE:RE:Lore infoboxes
Thanks for the info, but Jimee already helped me out with those. Race infoboxes are good for now. Only problem is that some lore characters don't have any info on what race they actually were. Additionaly they are quite glichy, but it's fixable by manualy tinkering with the code.

Examples of my recent work, where I put them to use: Mantiarco; Lord Vhokken; Queen Amodetha

Ikabite (talk) 08:39, May 5, 2012 (UTC)

Signatures
When you created a signature template, did you create a new article using the "this page does not exist?" This is how I'm understanding it, but I don't want to create a future problem. I saw these cool signatures and got jealous. :P

Hey, thanks for the update and welcome. I'll do my best! However, I need you back at full power to help me fix the wiki!

Forgot to leave this header :p
Hey Deyvid,

I'm a frequent editor here and I have a few questions.

I have worked with Jimeee quite a bit, he's been a big help really. I would have been lost without him. But recently I did some work with him and he helped me write the outline for the 2nd standardization of the Skyrim: Thane Weapons. Not a problem at all, I had standardized them and he helped me see errors and such on what I did.

Anyways, I'm looking to extend my relations here on the wiki as well as improve my editing skills. If you get the time could you go over one of the thane weapons pages and drop me a few pointers on how I could improve? The more opinions and tips I get the better. I really want to bring all I can to this wiki and how else to do that but to sharpen my skills.

If you don't it's not a problem, but any advice or criticism whatsoever is always appreciated.

I am a firm believer in constructive criticism, and collaboration.

I hope to have the chance to work with every admin, mod, sysop, regular editor etc... here on the wiki.

Thanks for taking your time to read this.

Hey Deyvid, thanks for letting me know. Now if I can only remember the password (hehe).GramsJ (talk) 22:34, May 22, 2012 (UTC)

Also, could you point me to the conversations where it was decided that the categories such as Category:Females and Category:Locations are being removed so I may catch up on those? I haven't been "in the loop" very much. I'm being told that the hardest part of my chemo is past, now, (I'm half way through) so hopefully I can keep up better.

Re:Dragonborn armor
Thanks for letting me in on what has been happening around the Wikia world! I am having a little trouble with the fact that I have no idea on how to get licensing on a picture.

Hey there Deyvid, just checking in. Anywho, I was wondering why Brynden Bloodraven's edits were reverted. As his edits were gramatical. Commander Faol (talk) 19:43, May 23, 2012 (UTC)

Names
I noticed that all the members names (mainly admins and other ranked members) all have blue names, is this desired change, or did something happen with the last batch of updates? I know this doesn't really effect me, but i kinda liked seeing the different colored names and would hate to see that gone.

Cheatcodechamp (talk) 05:48, May 24, 2012 (UTC)

i would just like to point out that the experts robes are wrong normaly i would just fix it but the page is blocked from editing so if you would be so kind as to unblock itOzrowO (talk) 21:28, May 25, 2012 (UTC)

Me being an idiot
Yeah sorry for not getting back to you quicker, I haven't had much free time this week. Anyway I just wanted to apologise for screwing up on those locations pages, I'm sorry if I gave you more work correcting the dumbass newbies mistakes.

Cheers, Bloodraven. Brynden Bloodraven Cauthon (talk) 21:31, May 25, 2012 (UTC)

Skeleon Key
why did you revert my edit on skeleton key skyrim? .
 * The edit was poorly formatted and appeared to be unnecessary and unproductive. If it was necessary, then accept my apologies and add it back into the page, using proper grammar and formatting. Thanks! -- 21:50, May 25, 2012 (UTC)

i mean that artical about that vulpine thing. mythic won't just put where he found the info i asked him twice to do it but didn't really get a response as to where he got it.

aswell i just got called uneeded name because i kept reverting the edit on that artical, its on my talk page. could you do something about it?

sorry about not signing (Twilightdragongod (talk) 21:59, May 25, 2012 (UTC))

okay i saw what i did wrong with the skeleton key(skyrim). sorry about that my bad. P.S. i thought i was undoing the part that said go to helgen and take to cyrodil, but ended up putting it back my bad. sorry (Twilightdragongod (talk) 22:06, May 25, 2012 (UTC))

RE: Barbaras
Ah, that probably happened from the turnback. Someone else turned it back because, for some reason, when I edited, the whole page wasn't showing up. It looked like 1 image and the categories. That's probably why it needs work again.
