Thanks For the welcome
Hiya hellhound thanks for the advice i will take it in and use it. I hope that all my contributions help support the growing obliviowiki pages and community. cheers ~Mattiosis-dewey~


 * Everything you contribute is helpful. If you need any inspiration or ideas on things that need doing, you can improve stubbed articles or create wanted articles. You can also contribute to any Collaborations and their family of articles. If you need any editing help, the basics are located here, or you can ask myself or other users if you have any questions. It is also common practice to sign your comments using ~ at the end of your last sentence, similar to how I have it below. We look forward to any help you can offer us. \*\ Hellhound43 15:51, 19 July 2007 (CDT)

I wanted to also extend my thanks for the warm welcome. I'm still getting used to this whole 'Wiki formatting' thing, so you'll have to pardon me if any of my attempts at code or scripting look like gibberish. Haha. ~ Badger / WhiteFangRMB ~


 * No problem. Again, if you have any questions feel free to ask. \*\ Hellhound43 12:08, 24 July 2007 (CDT)

Symbols of Office?
Heya gang! Does anybody know how to complete the Symbols of Office quest? I got the Eye, but I need the twigs from the Tree of Shades or something like this. GameSpot game guide says that once I enter the Grove of Reflection, I'll get a message like "I have entered the Grove of Reflection(...)" etc. I have entered the Grove and nothing happens. Does the newest patch fix the problem? Dr4goN 04:22, 2 May 2007 (CDT)

Alright, found a way myself. Look here: Fix Thanks to DevDude from Bethesda forums. Dr4goN 07:18, 2 May 2007 (CDT)

Shivering Isles Main Quest-ion
Hey Hellhound, I'm working on the Shivering Isles Main Quest. I've only got a few done. But I noticed on the main quest articles like Breaking the Siege of Kvatch there is a table with each quest in order, and the article's quest highlighted. I was wondering how that was done. andy 00:34, 4 May 2007 (CDT)


 * For the coding see Template:Main Quest. The highlighting occurs when a link goes to the same page that you are already on, for example User Talk:Hellhound43 becomes User Talk:Hellhound43. \*\ Hellhound43 00:54, 4 May 2007 (CDT)

Thanks! andy 01:06, 4 May 2007 (CDT)


 * And now another question: do I make a new category for Shivering Isles Main Quest? Seems like a good way to seperate these quests from the others in the Isles.  How do I go about doing that?  I assume I start a new page titled "category:Shivering Isles Main Quest", add the quests to that page, and then put that tag on all of the appropriate pages - right? andy 12:58, 4 May 2007 (CDT)


 * You don't even have to "start" the category article, but you should put on a short description of it, along the lines of "Storyline quests for the Shivering Isles expansion." The category articles don't need anything else, they are categorized automatically. After that, just put the category tags on all of the relevant quest articles. \*\ Hellhound43 16:45, 4 May 2007 (CDT)


 * I just noticed that putting just put this page in the "Shivering Isles Main Quest" category.  Whoops - I'll delete that.  Just out of curiosity - I've had that category for at least one article (A Door in Niben Bay) but the category link has remained red.  Does it only become a real page after you link two or more articles to it?  I'm new to this wiki thing and learning a lot, and I sure appreciate all your help. andy 19:06, 4 May 2007 (CDT)


 * No, the page is "created" when you type a description into the Category:Shivering Isles Main Quest article, just as you would for a regular article. This is what I meant when I said to type in a description like "Storyline quests for the Shivering Isles expansion." \*\ Hellhound43 19:56, 4 May 2007 (CDT)

Thanks for the welcome!
Hey Hellhound,

Thanks for the welcome. I'll continue adding location screenshots to where they are not present. My toon is lvl3o+, so I get highest tier loot and rewards, but many earlier rewards and loot are vendored off earlier. However, I have the entire Knights of the Nine armor highest tier, and all the Deadric Artifacts save for the Hammer, which I donated to Martin Septim. Let me know what you still need.


 * There's still a lot of work to be done on this wiki. If you need any ideas for what to do besides the locations you're working on, check out the OblivioWiki:Task List. You can also check my user page's task list, as well as theSpectator's task list on his user page. \*\ Hellhound43 10:37, 20 May 2007 (CDT)

Jhaerik's Conjuration Mod
Hey Hellhound,

Where do I get the Jhaerik's Conjuration mod u got? Dr4goN 06:39, 3 June 2007 (CDT)


 * Here you go, . \*\ Hellhound43 09:01, 3 June 2007 (CDT)

melee re.
Hellhound, ok, on my melee page should i add things like that combat to the "see..." part? From blackaven


 * Actually, I think your melee page should redirect to attack instead, where there is a section of "Melee Attacks," and is more specific. You can add additional information and description there. --theSpectator talk 21:50, 5 June 2007 (CDT)

how do you redirect pages? blackaven


 * By putting in: #REDIRECT article to redirect to . Don't worry about the melee article, though, as I've already redirected it to Attack (you can see this by going to the melee article, where you will end up at the attack article but it will say (redirected from melee) just underneath the title of the page. If you click on that link on the attack article, it will bring you back to the melee article in case you want to change the redirect or remove it and put content on the page. \*\ Hellhound43 11:55, 6 June 2007 (CDT)

ok thanks Hellhound and thanks Spectator i will be sure to use your help and recommendations. blackaven

Grand Ring of Detect Life
sup guys I started the Grand Ring of Detect Life page I use that ring so i will get more info about it on the weekend(hopefully). if any one wants to program the borders i can get the info if someone puts it together. plz inform me if this page has already been made.^-^blackaven


 * I've moved the page to Ring of Detect Life, because there are three versions of this ring. Go ahead and put the yellow colored table on the page for enchanted items, located here (just copy the source for it, and change the numbers as necessary, oh and if you can't obtain the ID for it, leave it blank for now and I'll add it in later). Feel free to do this for any other items you want to add, and if you want to add armor or weapons you can use the other tables on my test page for those. For now, I'm working on the weapons, then armor and apparel last. \*\ Hellhound43 00:43, 8 June 2007 (CDT)

ok blackaven

Manual of Xedilian / Team of modmakers...?
I made an article about Manual of Xedilian and put it to Books category. I don't have Oblivion on the computer I am writing this on(holiday!!! yay), so could somebody add its Contents and/or correct the things? I don't remember this book well...

Also, I'm going to start a team of modmakers. I don't know what we'll be doing, but I'm still a OCS-noob, so the future is uncertain. Anyone up, though?


 * I'll add in the contents for the book later, when I get back to adding the weapons. As far as the modding goes, you might consider posting about it on the Official Bethesda Forums, as you'd likely find more, and better help there than on this wiki. That said, you could also post a topic about it in the OblivioWiki Talk: Community Portal if you like (I can't think of a better place for it, at any rate). \*\ Hellhound43 12:32, 9 June 2007 (CDT)

Encumbrance bug?
Hello,

I *think* i have found an encumbrance bug. Once I have finished the quest for Gauntlets of the Crusader(Stendarr's Mercy in Knights of the Nine)after lifting the curse from Kellen. The article(and the game itself) says that fatigue should be drained instead of encumbrance. Any fix for this? Dr4goN 09:58, 10 June 2007 (CDT)


 * Provided that you have the latest patch and everything, I'm not sure. Sorry, \*\ Hellhound43 12:55, 10 June 2007 (CDT)


 * I did EVERYTHING as it says ta lift this goddamn thing... and the problem existed even before 1.2(and SI).

Hey, it seems I FOUND a way around. It has two options: Feather and/or... editing the scripts :) Hope this works. Dr4goN 14:09, 10 June 2007 (CDT)


 * What about your Strength? If memory serves, strength fails as well. ~+~ Dragon of the Imperial 21:25, 15 June 2007 (CDT)


 * Yeah, but it wasn't Strength. The way to override this thing was to cheat my Strength up to 255 and enchanting Umbra's Armor with Feather. I did it another way, though. I just made a new char(Crusader) with the same level and stats as the previous one. Dr4goN 14:05, 23 June 2007 (CDT)

Sign of Encomium

 * Thanks! \*\ Hellhound43 14:28, 16 June 2007 (CDT)

Grey Cowl of Nocturnal & The Crusader Armour
Since you seem to know alot about oblivion I though I'd ask, "If you don't have Crusader armour equipped and you wear the Grey Cowl do you still have to do the pilgrimage all over again to wear the armour?? -


 * I believe so, as it adds 100 infamy and requires you to perform the pilgrimage again if you are wearing the armor (which would be unequipped). \*\ Hellhound43 07:36, 20 July 2007 (CDT)


 * Thanks-

Ok, new question, it says that the unicorn won't be were you first found it if it dies. Does that mean that it never re-spawns again or just re-spawns in a different part of the grove?- Oblivion MasterTalk 03:22, 25 July 2007 (CDT)


 * I'm not sure, it should theoretically respawn in the same place if it does indeed respawn. If not, you'd have to start a new game. \*\ Hellhound43 09:31, 25 July 2007 (CDT)


 * The unicorn does not respawn. Once it's dead, there are no more unicorns. In my playing time, the unicorn had died early in the game and so far, I have never seen another, either at the grove or elsewhere. --theSpectator talk 10:21, 25 July 2007 (CDT)

Character Creation
I was wondering if we could make a very in-depth character creation page? --Skellydude 12:19, 27 July 2007 (CDT)
 * You can expand on the one started at character creation, as it doesn't have much. --theSpectator talk 12:23, 27 July 2007 (CDT)

Ok cool thank you. i was also wondering how to make boxes and things like the orange 1 at top of page. --Skellydude 12:28, 27 July 2007 (CDT)


 * Using and  tags is the easiest way to make "boxes", but in the case of my talk page archive box I made it in a table format. Wikipedia has good help articles for editing, see tables here and you can get a tutorial for using span and div tags at HTML Dog. You can see both of these methods in use in various places around this wiki, such as on my test page for tables, and the Main Page for div's. \*\ Hellhound43 13:06, 27 July 2007 (CDT)


 * Thanks Hell for that HTML link as well. While I have a general idea of how to use HTML; the link helps a lot in clarifying other questions. --theSpectator talk 18:03, 27 July 2007 (CDT)


 * Wow that realy helped alot thanks so much. but the first 2 links dont work --Skellydude 18:40, 27 July 2007 (CDT)

Ok i added onto character creation and i need some people to help me with it. -- Skellydude 19:05, 27 July 2007 (CDT)


 * The links work for me. As far as the character creation is concerned, I'm not entirely sure where you're going with it yet. The heading should have a more concise title, though, and strength isn't a skill, by the way; I'm guessing you mean attributes. Also, don't sign your name on article pages, just on talk pages. I've removed unnecessary bits and expanded the table a bit, but there's something missing from this idea that I can't put my finger on. \*\ Hellhound43 20:28, 27 July 2007 (CDT)


 * Ok thank you for the help. feel free to add new things or anything you can to help out to the character creation.

A question.
"WARNING: This page is 59 kilobytes long; some browsers may have problems editing pages approaching or longer than 32kb. Please consider breaking the page into smaller sections." I happened to see this warning in the Bugs discussion when I was in the page edition screen, should something be done there? --Bippo Ernesti 21:47, 30 July 2007 (CDT)


 * That simply means that the talk page is too long and should be archived. I haven't archived it yet because I, nor any other person, have gone through the talk to see which ones are actual, widespread bugs (and thus worthy to be put on main bugs page), or if the bugs are individual differences. What do you think Hellh? --theSpectator talk 22:02, 30 July 2007 (CDT)


 * Eh doesn't matter to me. I don't think it matters too much that the page is too long, so is the ingredient article. If anyone wants to archive it, go ahead. I can't confirm any bugs anyway, considering that I can't play (and don't really want to go back to this from Morrowind, which is really a better game overall, though less addicting). \*\ Hellhound43 23:51, 30 July 2007 (CDT)


 * I will also point out that the warning is only referring to problems pulling the article text into a single text editor box. This only affects REALLY old browsers, like Netscape 4.xx and Opera 6.0.  (These are years out of date, at least.)  There was also a Firefox bug that was exposed by using an old version of the Google toolbar, but that has been fixed for over a year.  It barely rates a message at all, it certainly doesn't rate a "WARNING!".  In fact, I'm pretty sure recent versions of WikiMedia editing the whole message out, it now just says "This page is x kilobytes long.". Kutulu 12:47, 1 August 2007 (CDT)

Morrowind?
There was recentely a request by someone suggesting a morrowind gamewiki, since your an admin I though maybe you could decide on this. Could this site also become a wiki for Morrowind? Thanks - Oblivion MasterTalk 05:46, 31 July 2007 (CDT)


 * Well, the wiki would have to be renamed, and I'd have to have the time for it (which I don't really, have to prepare for my upcoming career). Besides, UESP has it covered already pretty well. \*\ Hellhound43 09:46, 31 July 2007 (CDT)

Question on Writing ...
Is it against the policy of the Wiki or its admins to link to or post "Oblivion" fan fiction? I've wanted to write about my characters for a while, and was wondering if maybe I could use my User Page as a good home for such material. (This way, since the content is entirely fictional, my submissions will be away from the main body of info on the Wiki.) -- Badger 11:02, 7 August 2007 (CDT)


 * Not at all, feel free to write about or link to almost anything you want on your user page. \*\ Hellhound43 11:38, 7 August 2007 (CDT)

Sancre Tor, the fort
Now, I haven't been playing Oblivion in a long while, but I think that Sancre Tor is a fort ruin, and it is also shown on the list, but the link there goes to the quest Sancre Tor. I was wondering about making the article, but what do I name it? There is a possibility that I missed the article about the fort itself, but I used the search-option and the best results I found were Sancre Tor, Battle of Sancre Tor, and The Legendary Sancre Tor. So what I was thinking, was that maybe the Sancre Tor quest could be moved to Sancre Tor (quest), or if not, then the fort could be Sancre Tor (fort). --Bippo Ernesti 09:54, 12 October 2007 (UTC)


 * Hmm Indeed, Sancre Tor would probably be best for the fort itself, and then the Sancre Tor (quest) for the quest. I'll move the quest now and start the fort article. \*\ Hellhound43 14:17, 12 October 2007 (UTC)

Requesting immediate ban
There is an IP address, 207.160.8.131, vandalizing articles, I am suggesting that the IP should be banned as soon as possible, thank you. --Bippo Ernesti 20:10, 16 October 2007 (UTC)


 * Thanks for reverting some of the articles. You can place the template on the user's talk page next time, makes it easier to find them that way in case it's too far down the recent changes list for us to see. \*\ Hellhound43 20:31, 16 October 2007 (UTC)


 * Ah, I didn't know such a template existed, thanks for telling. By the way, are you going to revert the rest of the articles, or will I? I don't mind reverting them. --Bippo Ernesti 20:32, 16 October 2007 (UTC)


 * Go ahead, I'm going to be completing the articles for the new Fighter's Stronghold plug-in I just took screenshots for and I'll double check to make sure they've been reverted later. \*\ Hellhound43 20:36, 16 October 2007 (UTC)


 * Okay, I'll revert all the articles I see that was vandalized. --Bippo Ernesti 20:39, 16 October 2007 (UTC)


 * Thanks. In case you aren't aware of it, you can use his contributions page to track all of his vandalism. If there are any articles to be deleted just put a tag on it like you did with the Red Valley Ogre one. \*\ Hellhound43 20:42, 16 October 2007 (UTC)


 * Oh, that's convenient! I didn't even think about the contribution page, that saves a lot of trouble. By the way, it might be good to delete the Like Like and Master Sword articles, since Like Likes are from The Legend of Zelda, and I don't think that Master Sword exists in Oblivion --Bippo Ernesti 20:47, 16 October 2007 (UTC)
