Big Thank You
Thanks so much for the congratulations on MOTM! I had no idea I was even concidered. I'm honored. I try to do my best in editing also, having some spelling errors or grammar error maybe as english isn't my first language. BTW, are there any other images I can help with or replace? I also try to have the same size on the ones I replace now, didn't think of it earlier...               EbonySkyrim (talk) 07:34, November 3, 2012 (UTC)

Galathil
Hey Tomb, i got a question. Someone told me on my talk page that he obtained a gold ring from Galathil, but not a random gold ring but "Galathil's Gold Ring". Could you look up for me if something like that exists in the Creation Kit? I already looked if she wears it when you pickpocket her, but she doesn't. 15:52, November 4, 2012 (UTC)
 * ok, thanks. 18:50, November 4, 2012 (UTC)
 * I'll ask, thanks for looking it up! 21:40, November 4, 2012 (UTC)

Semi-OK
Hi TR-- Thanks for asking. I'm afraid I got somewhat overwhelmed with the daily radiation treatments and the resulting aftereffects. I tried to keep up for a while but found it just too difficult. Perhaps I should reliquish my admin status. Thank you for thinking of me. I'll try to stay active...there are a couple of projects I haven't completed. GramsJ (talk) 17:01, November 4, 2012 (UTC)

Pickpocketing gold from trainers
Hiya. The pickpocket page says that you can pickpocket gold from trainers (gold that you just paid them), but last I checked, the gold is displayed in their inventory but always has a 0% chance to steal. I will try to confirm this next time I get a chance, but I was wondering if you knew what's true.

Editing question
I edited the armor template on the steel armor page to show the armor rating, weight, and value of the set with and without the shield... is this an appropriate edit?

I edited the page because, as I was comparing steel plate armor to steel armor, I noticed that steel armor had a higher armor rating. This confused me until I saw that the shield was factored in. I have looked at the other armor pages and noticed that the shield is factored in for all of those as well... but what if you don't use shields, and you still want to compare armor ratings? It makes more sense to me, but I dunno... figured I'd ask someone who knows things.

Also, do you know what that check mark is?

Help
Hi Tomb, I need your help. Just because I got this MOTM I had to mess things up. I have because of the name in the journal named the photos to the wrong journal! I'm so sorry... and I couldn't even spell journal right. Something is wrong with me today.

(links removed)

They should be named: Expedition_Manifest_1-2 and Expedition_Manifest_3-4.

I have already moved them to the right journal. So sorry for messing up!

EbonySkyrim (talk) 21:31, November 7, 2012 (UTC)

Re: Editing question
So, it would be alright to modify the other pages to show the amounts both with and without the shield?

Does make more sense.

Sinjai (talk) 23:44, November 7, 2012 (UTC)


 * But steel plate armor isn't the only armor set that doesn't have a shield. If you're trying to compare armor sets, having the shield included doesn't help, whether you don't use one, or the set doesn't have one.

Page lock
Hey Tomb,

The Taste of Death needs to be locked so only registered editors can add to it. I see more worthless edits then good ones on it and until its brought to wikia standards we cant have reverts.

Also, I was fighting Alduin, and he said something about me using the blades sword that isn't added to his article.

"You wield the weapon of my ancient foes, but you are still not their equal."

Cheatcodechamp (talk) 04:46, November 8, 2012 (UTC)

Ill work on taste myself if that help, as soon as im done with my work on some of the other wikias (im helping ACwikia since the game came out and i found one i can help fix)

And ill archive after that's done, you seem to be the only one that dosnt like me having 50 messages out at a time :)

Cheatcodechamp (talk) 18:41, November 8, 2012 (UTC)

Editing question
Hi, TombRaiser... I replied a while ago to your messages but I suppose you haven't seen it or haven't thought to reply... I'd like a reply.

I edited my reply, but I'll re-post here...

But steel plate armor isn't the only armor set that doesn't have a shield. If you're trying to compare armor sets, having the shield included doesn't help, whether you don't use one, or the set doesn't have one.

Sinjai (talk) 22:54, November 9, 2012 (UTC)

I understand now
I was going though other wikia, and by looking at the talk pages for their admins i know see your point about archiving my messages, i dont think they have even heard of archiving.

Re:PAGENAME
Hey and thanks for the clarification on the subject. Sorry if I caused any sort of hassle. The removal of the PAGENAME template follows me from another wiki I'm active on. Old habits die hard you know? Anyways, I'll be sure to keep in mind THIS wiki's editing guidelines in mind for future editing. Again sorry for any possible hassle and thanks for the clarification.

Question
Hey Tomb, i have a problem and maybe you know the answer to it. I created a template for clothing in Bloodmoon: Template:BloodmoonClothing. I wanted it, just like all other infoboxes to automaticly add it to Category:Bloodmoon: Clothing. If you look at Mantle of Woe it adds the cat on the bottom of the page, but when i look in the cat it still says "This category currently contains no pages or media". I've tried everything, you can see that at the history :D, but i really don't know whats causing this. Do you? 15:36, November 11, 2012 (UTC)
 * Ok, thanks! Well i've worked on the bloodmoon pages in the past, making pages about main quests etc, but later started working on Skyrim pages again. Now, after working a lot on Skyrim pages, i decided to get back to my work with the bloodmoon pages. I like bloodmoon, like it more then the main game. I bought Morrowind + both expansions, not knowing that the seller ripped me off by not telling me that the tribunal cd wasn't in there. So now i only own the main game + bloodmoon, not tribunal >.<


 * I've seen some of your pictures, they look great! Always loved you pictures, good to know you can also take pictures of bloodmoon stuff. Btw, if you come across any of these things (Which don't have a pic yet) could you add these please. I started these pages but I'm not very good at making pretty pictures :D 17:14, November 11, 2012 (UTC)

MOTM nomination
Awwwwwww, that sucks. I always thought it was really weird that you didn't became MOTM. You really, really deserve it. I've selected Zimakaru because he also really deserves it. 19:41, November 11, 2012 (UTC)

Hello There, TombRaiser!!!
I am excited to say hello to you. I am grieved that Tim no longer edits here, I have just recieved word that he now has a major life outside this website...I have failed him. He felt like a mentor to me, in some ways. Anyways, intriguing as you are, being presumably female, let's get to the business: The Bloodmoon Template doesn't see to be present for my own use at this time. I am not sure why this is. I absolutely love creating pages. Your contributions are taken into consideration on the part of correction in that way. If you find Any redlinks,, orphans, or just pages uncreated, or mostly stubs, feel free to send me the lists or what have you on to my profile. I will be sure to check them out. Please. I have a lot to offer, and I want to do this for my once-good friend of sorts, Tim, aka Timeoin....haha.

I have a large amount of work to go over tonight, as I am still part of school these days. I am available around 8 and up at night times during the week, s far as I know of my current schedule. I really want to do this until forever, when my soul floats to Aetherius, but alas, I cannot, for life is as unbalanced as it is unforgiving. (or is it 'forgiving'..? negative-positive subject agreement :D)

I swear I will respond to you if you make yourself available. I can prove to be a modest ally if ever you need one.

Thanks for the message,

Lucas

Youtube videos
Hey Tomb

Some user called User:DefragZA added a bunch of videos a few days ago and a few of us think they need to be deleted but dont know the exact way to handle it

He hasnt broken any rules that we know of, but the videos are all from his own youtube and its clear he is doing this for adverting.

should we delete them or keep them?

Regarding Redlinks
Like I said, if you feel so inclined, please notify of any pages of major consieration fo creation. I will get on it right away. Since my timezone is two hours ahead of your time...wait, three...don't expect me up from now unti morning. A for the Template for Bloodmoon...I no longer source edit. It irks the living Oblivion out of me. So Template, or how ever it is, is no part of my Visual formed edits. I will be doing Source edits, then, if this i the case.

NOTE: The Redlinks on the 'Quests (Bloodmoon' )- that is, all of them- will be dealt with, and if at all possible, by me. I intend todo this myself, as I have neglected my editoril duties of late. Unless you'll take the helm, I'd love to do those pages; I'll check in tomorrow afternoon (long time, it seems, unfortuntely).

Check with me if you have any objections of me taking this oppurtunity head-on.

Thanks again for your help.

PS, I dunno what happened with that link up there^

In Response
I feel like I am taking up the entire talk page...I think IRC would be the best way for a chat. But maybe for the last time page-to-page, I will say this: I will do those redlinks, and even do as many other ones as I can. Yeah, I understand you just fine about the Templates. I'm extremely busy lately, too. Oh and don't mistake me saying such great things about myself for a desire for attention :P I used to be a simple, immature kid last period of time I was on here...back when Tim was still around ;( I have grown away from my old ways a little. Anyways...gosh...when you said you had few people aound here lately that knew their lore, what did you mean? I'll try to be on around 8 tonight.

Yep, I was edit-following you, I have no shame! You seem to like daggers XD How's everything going? I'm about to play Oblivion, thought you could "join" me...

Well...
Chances are you won't be hearing from me anytime soon. I'm just about done with people on this wiki...again. I'll put an edit or two a day in. As for that, I won't be talking to anyone anymore, just say, for a week until further notice.

Yeah. Whatever.

The Pursuit page fix?
I believe I have fixed the The Pursuit quest page, removing the need for the "Does not adhere to quest and Neutral point of view manual of style." warning. Could you please take a look and see if the warning can be removed? If not, please tell me what needs to be changed and I shall do so.

Thanks!

Signature
Hello again, hope I'm not being a bother.

I was just wondering, how do you change your signature? I know that it's in Preferences, but when I tried to change mine to Sinjai (Talk) as a test, the talk part was simply bolded. Also, how do you get superscript in your signature? Are colored signatures allowed for non-staff? If so, how do you do that?

Sinjai (talk) 03:12, November 16, 2012 (UTC)


 * This is a tad late, but thanks for your help with the signature.

Sorry for doing it again!
Hi Tomb...        I was playing the quest Siege on the Dragon Cult and tried to rewrite the questpage at the same time. It took some time and I also took a few photos. I wanted to add some tonight or early morning (it's 3.45 am here) before I went to bed and of course as it was late, I did it again. I wrote Forelhurst instead of Forelhost when naming the photos and then I tried to reupload them with the right name but the two I tried still got the wrong name. I'm so sorry.. shouldn't be doing this so late at night. The files in question are:

(links removed)

They are all on the quest page. 4 in the gallery and one in the infobox. I feel so stupid but after 3-4 hours doing the quest and writing I guess my mind isn't that qick and clear!

Articles to be Merged
I have noticed that a few of the articles in the category "Articles to be Merged" have been there awhile. Do we have a time limit for something like this?

I would say that deciding if they need to be split or not should be decided in a few weeks at most. either through the IRC or conciseness track.

Cheatcodechamp (talk) 07:55, November 17, 2012 (UTC)

P.S

Is there i way i can link you a category without adding your message board to that category? If so i would love to know how.

Fanon?
Do you allow the posting of fanfiction articles on this site? I don't ask because of any wish to do so myself, but rather I found an artivle that I believe may be fanfiction here. Have you heard of the Cyrodiil Vampyrum? I have never heard of it, which makes me think that it might be fanfiction. Though more power to it if that is allowed on this site. I am your master! At your service. (talk) 00:45, November 18, 2012 (UTC)

Clean-up
Can you please remove or re-write this section on TES:Skyrim page:

"...possibly as placeholders for future expansions or downloadable content. Hints pointing to this possibility include: The presence of an impassable gate in the southeast of Riften that seemingly leads into the province of Morrowind, another gate southwest of Falkreath that would lead to Cyrodiil and a half-modeled portion of the White Gold Tower in what would be the Imperial City."

It would be muchly appreciated, as the page is currently locked and this passage is quite speculative. GarouxBloodline Some Assembly Required! 01:23, November 18, 2012 (UTC)


 * Thank you for helping me with that. GarouxBloodline

Page really necessary?
Hi Tomb, I always look out for pages missing pics and maps and so on as you know. Stumbled on this one and now I have had a look at this "unmarked location". It's only half a mammoth skeleton with halv a human skeleton inside. Nothing to loot, nothing of interest to pick around the place at all. I did take pics if you think its a page that still should exist. Swallowed Skeleton: Greymoor Foothills.

EbonySkyrim (talk) 21:32, November 20, 2012 (UTC)


 * Sure, Ill do it then. Took an image of it and maplocation.

Memes
Why do we allow memes on the wikia? the only people who use them, are trolls and those who vandalize.

Cheatcodechamp (talk) 20:51, November 21, 2012 (UTC)

None of the articles have any memes at the moment, Jimeee alone would never allow that.

Some dude added two memes for his blog, and neither had anything to do with his topic. and every other time i see a meme added its for trolls to add to their comments in blogs.

I just dont understand why we allow this when they add nothing to the wikia. Cheatcodechamp (talk) 04:34, November 22, 2012 (UTC)

As you recently did with the Clanbringer page, how do you make the properties and decription of the items or places better. AutoBlood (talk) 18:26, November 22, 2012 (UTC)
