Image sharing feature
Greetings Atvelonis,

I'm an admin of the french TES wikia, and you recently brought some precious advices in order for us to upgrade the quality of our wikia : many thanks for this again. Among other stuff, you authorized us to use the english wikia's pictures and images if we credited the image with a ling back to your wikia.

However, it has been brought to my attention there was a possibility to activate the Wikia Image Sharing Feature. It would allow us to use your images directly, using the same file name as you. It only works one way, so our own image imports would not affect your wikia. Would you agree to let us activate such feature ? If the credits of the image seem too unclear of not visible enough, we can manage to find other ways to give your work the visibility it deserves.The only things required are the source wikia agreement, and a Fandom admin request.

Looking forward to read from you soon,

Giveaway
Hi, Atvelonis!

Bethesda reached out to us in order to help promote their newest giveaway. I posted about it in the forums here and highlighted it; if it isn't in the right place, please feel free to move it. If there's any other way to help promote it, like a badge on the main page or anything, please let me know of any other options :)

Best regards,

 * Thanks! That would be wonderful :) Raylan13 ( talk ) 00:41, November 18, 2016 (UTC)

Ulfric Stormcloak
Just mentioning a potential edit war. Personally, I think the initial edit was reletively pointless, and Bron agrees in that reguard. I was just wondering what your opinion was on this.
 * My defense is that the adjective is appropriate, relevant to the section of the article since it regards a clarification of an opinion of an NPC, and thus should remain without someone trying to remove content or change words so as to change the intent and meaning of the author. Since Ulfric considers the Empire too weak to protect its citizens along with exploiting them for their own personal gain, then an "inept" or at least an "incompetent" adjective should be a worthy edit addition, instead of Ottoman cutting it out because he subjectively finds the tone of the adjective distasteful. If it's apt and sourced, why should it not remain? If it is such a trivial addition, why are people so determined to remove it? And if people can remove content every time they are triggered by how a phrase is worded, it makes me question the impartiality of this wiki and the abuse of power by its mods.(Sports72Xtrm (talk))
 * " Let's present all significant, competing views sympathetically." By denying me an edit that just provides a clarification of an opinion of a lore character, it would be trying to suppress a competing view.(Sports72Xtrm (talk))

Bad block?
I'm pretty sure you didn't intend to block this user for "removing information", but rather the IP of the user who preceded to edit that same article for the same reason. --Sajuuk 15:39, November 28, 2016 (UTC)
 * No worries, it happens to the best of us. ;)
 * On a separate note, I really think talkpage policy needs to be formalised as a real policy, 'cause there are still instances (limited, but they happen) of people using talkpages like forum boards. I don't want to make a whole thread about it, can it be discussed at the next moot, whenever that will be? --Sajuuk 15:43, November 28, 2016 (UTC)

Editing problem


Atvelonis, I have a question, if you take a look on the image shown here, there is a problem.

MisterClover (talk) 19:23, November 30, 2016 (UTC)


 * You will have to be a bit more specific in what steps you took to get here. We can send this in as bug report in case anything broke. Did you change anything to the page before trying to save it? Try going back and give a detailed step-by-step report if you can. — Flightmare (talk) 19:52, November 30, 2016 (UTC)

Chat Notices
On the Chat Box where the join chat button is, there’s a “Please Read” section. How did you add that? Is there a Dev Wiki page about it? (I couldn’t find any). ~Ursuul 03:25, December 2, 2016 (UTC)

Super Walkthrough update
Hey hey :)

Just wanted to give you and the rest of the admin staff a li'l heads up. Yesterday, Bethesda requested changes to Super Walkthrough:The Elder Scrolls Online. That means I'll be doing some work on the constituent templates in the coming days.

The main changes will be done to Template:ESO Continents, which Bethesda feel needs to be tweaked to present geographical information with a bit more impact for the player. The changes are a direct response to their notes, and will give a little more information about each region.

Feel free to reach out to me if you have any questions. -- CzechOut 17:22, December 7, 2016 (UTC)

Resignaition
I need to resign. I insulted a user in an edit summary tonight. I can not continue here if I do that. I will continue to make my usual maintainance edits, but i feel that it will be wrong of me to continue calling myself a staff member if I say stuff like "Ugh... Somebody else can patrol this person's substandard images." in edit summaries. That was nothng more than me taking my anger out on someone else. This wiki deserves some one better than me for my position The Cat Master (talk) 10:07, December 9, 2016 (UTC)


 * I decided to stick around a while longer. Things have not been going so great IRL, and last night I had an emotional break down, and I tend to act rashly when I'm in that state.  I know that user has a reputation for consistently uploading images that don't meet our standards, but I feel that my comment on the edit summary to their edit was uncalled for, and I could have handled that better.

 * can you help me

Merry Christmas and (a bit too early to wish it already, but i'll do it already anyway) a Happy New Year!
I would like to use the Christmas/New Year-wishes-tradition, to thank those around me who kept wikia and daily life more fun for me during the past year. Everything just seems so normal and evident that we are here almost every day, yet it's very worthwhile to consider for a moment how wonderful it is to have people like you around me, making editing and being on chat a lot more enjoyable. I would also like to use this opportunity to wish a happy and healthy new year for you and everyone around you who is dear to you. I hope you'll have a great and healthy new year in which all your wishes may come true! - Greets Peace'n Hugs  (talk) (blog) 02:22, December 24, 2016 (UTC)

Template|Game Categories
Hey Atv. Merry Christmas! Had to find a way to bother you as a present, so here I am.

I'm not sure if you've noticed or not – You probably have – but some of our templates leave categories on the template pages theirself as well as the pages they go on. If you don't understand what I mean, check the categories on this. The page is registering as an actual Skyrim page, and not a template in terms of categories. This is all pretty stupid for me to tell you, I guess, but I thought I'd mention it.

As for actually fixing it, because the issue is with more than one template, I wanted to suggest that we use and > on the entire thing. Pretty stupid for me to mention that too I guess, but I want to run this by you before I actually do it, in case I break something, like I normally do.

One last thing, could you get the category off of this by replacing/removing the template? Thanks man. And again, merry Christmas.

Question about categories
Hey Atv. I was wondering about a little something for future reference. I came across a page missing a race as missing data and I was wondering if there was a specific category that treats just that specific missing data? Because I wouldn't mind going through all of those and fixing them accordingly but I don't really feel like wading through all the ones that are only missing their level or something. If that's something that can be done or you can point me in the direction, that would be great. Louise 069 (talk) 08:11, December 25, 2016 (UTC)

Thieves Guild and Dark Brotherhood Characters
I just realized something. I forgot to change the categories to the appropriate add-ons while making my edits. I would love to fix them but I created so many pages I've lost tracked of them :/ So yeah. I will do so in the future but I don't know what to do about them. Louise 069 (talk) 19:14, December 25, 2016 (UTC)


 * Sorry to barge in... ThievesGuildCharacters and DarkBrotherhoodCharacters can be used instead of OnlineCharacters to correctly categorize appropriate NPCs. &mdash;TheDefiant604 (talk &bull; contribs) 19:31, December 25, 2016 (UTC)

Rawl'kha (Lore)
Hey, Atvelonis

I don't think Rawl'kha (Lore) should be merged with the other page. Just because it only appears in one game, doesn't mean we can't have a lore page. Morthal and Sadrith Mora only appear in one game and yet they have lore pages. Another game could come out in the future and provide us more lore for the city. Besides, the other Rawl'kha page is an ESO specific page, if I can't put the Lore: Cities category there and label it as lore, then why should we move the lore there. --Vincentius1 (talk) 19:31, December 26, 2016 (UTC)


 * True I did make those pages but if Rawl'kha (Lore) was suggested to be merged then what about those two. If you want to get rid of the (Lore) suffix that's fine, but the whole point of a lore page is to include the overall information of whatever the page is about. History, architecture, cuisine, events, etc should go to a lore page. Besides, I don't think there will be any confusion with the different pages. We have the suffixes (Skyrim) and (Oblivion) to show that those pages are specific to those games. If it doesn't have those suffixes then it can be assumed that it's either the general page or the disambiguation page. If people want the version of Windhelm in Skyrim, they go to Windhelm (Skyrim), if they want to learn lore they go to the regular Windhelm page. --Vincentius1 (talk) 20:25, December 26, 2016 (UTC)


 * I've gotta grand it to Vincentius, lore pages are more useful for, well, the lore. While the game-specific pages are usually cluttered with what happens in the game it belongs to, which is what it's meant for. Also, when it comes to lore-pages, they are, usually, easier to change than game-specific ones, and by having one in advance we save ourselves the time of having to create a new page when a location does make a second appearance. But that's just my opinion, do with it as you see fit.

I need help with something
I somehow ended up with this thing at the bottom of my profile: Retrieved from "http://elderscrolls.wikia.com/wiki/User:The_Cat_Master?oldid=2277370".

I have never seen this before, and can not figure out how to get rid of it. I have tried editing and reediting my profile, but the code for it does not show up in the editor. Would you by chance know what it is, and how to get rid of it. If not, would you know of anybody who may know about it? The Cat Master (talk) 08:32, January 4, 2017 (UTC)

Monobook Bug (had to switch to Wikia to post this)
(Sorry for external image but apparently you’re not allowed to upload images for some bureaucratic reason.) http://i.imgur.com/Cck3xlM.png

^This is what I see, I can’t edit it or anything, & this applies to all User Talk pages & User Profiles. It’s just greyed out & I cannot interact with it in any way. Is this a bug? MikePence4FTW (talk) 10:29, January 5, 2017 (UTC)


 * EDIT: Turns out the whole bloody site is like that. I can’t click links, edit pages, view images, anything. Plus, with the greyscale, I can’t even read anything either unless I zoom & squint. Is this Fandom’s issue, or something to do with the Monobook.css/js?

MikePence4FTW (talk) 10:41, January 5, 2017 (UTC)
 * Also, bit of a side note, the Table of Contents doesn’t load on this Wiki in the Wikia Skin for me either...like, at all. It just loads indefinitely & I can’t click any of the links. I’m 80% sure this is either a Fandom or Cookie issue, but it might be on your end, I don’t know, thought I’d mention it so that you’d be aware, since I just now noticed it upon switching to Wikia.
 * There haven't been any reports of this issue before. It does look like some modal isn't loading. If you think the issue goes beyond this wiki, you should contact staff, they have far better insights in these type of issues. It also helps if you pull up your browser's dev tools to see what errors it might be listing, or try a different browser such as Firefox or Chrome. — Flightmare (talk) 14:29, January 5, 2017 (UTC)
