Harry Potter Wiki category change

Thanks for changing the category, but what is the "job queue"? John Reaves 05:05, 4 January 2007 (UTC)

See m:Help:Job queue. Basically, it helps to update things, for example, when a page gets created or deleted, it helps to change the color of the links to blue and red respectively. Also, when templates and categories get changed, it helps to update them on the affected pages. Without this, changes would only be updated when someone actually puts in the request, and an example may be manually updating it through null edits (edits in which the user clicks "edit" and then "Save page" without making any modifications to the actual content). GHe (Talk) 05:12, 4 January 2007 (UTC)

Is there anyway to actually see the job queue? John Reaves 10:51, 4 January 2007 (UTC)

You can see how many items are in the job queue via Special:Statistics, but I haven't actually been able to see the actual items. GHe (Talk) 15:34, 4 January 2007 (UTC)

New user's name

The name from a new user, Una Puta Caliente, are the spanish words for "A Hot Whore". Not sure if you want to do something about it. ‎Dreyesbo- (‎talk) 22:37, 7 January 2007 (UTC)

Oh... I'm really starting to hate online translators... Could you please request that the user change his/her username? Thanks. GHe (Talk) 22:38, 7 January 2007 (UTC)

Nvm. I'll ask. GHe (Talk) 22:41, 7 January 2007 (UTC)

Hello

Sorry for stupidly replacing the spoiler link at Main Page. I thought it was a dead link because it is in red. Shadeslayer 08:22, 9 January 2007 (UTC)

No problem. A dead link would be a darker red. GHe (Talk) 22:23, 9 January 2007 (UTC)

Award

Thank you for helping me with the Neverwinter Wikia and sorting out some JavaScript. I was going to give you your award on Wikia Central but your talk page redirected here. That means that I had to give a general award that means something in every wiki. I have chosen a barnstar. Feel free to convert this award and/or transfer it. Basically, do whatever you want to do with this award. --Leon (talk) 22:33, 9 January 2007 (UTC)

Congratulations!

I was going to leave the message on Central, but since you have it redirected, I'll leave it here: Congratulations, you're now an admin on the Central Wikia. If you need anything, let us know. Essjay (Talk) 01:27, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

Congratulations on your new adminship! I'm sure you'll do a good job. --CocoaZen 01:30, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

Welcoming User:64.203.20.10

Apologies, that was me you welcomed. Apparently I had been logged out of Inheriwiki, so I created my userpage under the impression that I was logged in. Thank you for the welcome, however. =) Kalathalan 05:18, 14 January 2007 (UTC)

Apologies

As a mod of ShurtyWiki, I would like to apologize for our user, Heir_of_Eragon that posted content directly copied from your wiki - though I'm sure he meant no harm. We are currently in the works of removing the content he copied, and will take precautions to ensure future users do not make the same mistake I hope you will accept our sincerest apology... - Superstition (www.shurtugal.com/encyclopedia/index.php/Main_Page)

No problem. Apparently, an additional 2 (if not more) articles were copied in the same manner, and I'm glad to see that this issue is currently being resolved. However, I do hope that such an incident will not happen again. GHe (Talk) 02:47, 29 January 2007 (UTC)

GFDL Violation on PIE

As the Editor in Chief of PIE, I appologize for the poor choice(s) made by the user Hier of Eragon on our site. We had no control of the user and when we found out what they had done we quicky deleted the content. Had we known any sooner we would have deleted it sooner. Any further information that is found to be coppied from your site will be deleted imidiately and if you find any more such articles, please notify us so that we may delete them too. Once again, we appologize.

-Allie2, Editor in Chief of PIE

Hoorah!

Seven new inheriwikipedians in January, it's stupendous! Therequiembellishere 23:12, 1 February 2007 (UTC)

Also, I have noticed that I am on the list of recently absent inheriwikipedians is there any way that can be changed, I know I'm not on much, but I'm not an absent member.Therequiembellishere 23:20, 1 February 2007 (UTC)

I think that's automatic. It's updated quite frequently, so you'll probably be off the list in a few days. GHe (Talk) 23:21, 1 February 2007 (UTC)

Imposter

Ahoy. It appears that you blocked User:Jeffrey O Gustafson (which is good). I was wondering if it would be possible to mark the page as an impostor account or somesuch, as it is someone clearly trying to impersonate me. I am an admin on the English Wikipedia. To confirm I am writing this message, see this dif [1]. Please contact me there if you have any questions. (The real, actual, honest-to-goodness Jeffrey O.

Topsites

It seems Shurtugal Topsites is currently down. Our Topsites button is remotely hosted on their server, and my connection is severely slowed down waiting for the button to load (it never does). I don't know if anyone else is experiencing this problem. If so, would it be possible to remove the button from the footer and just have it on the Main Page? ← Amina (Speak to me) 14:51, 2 March 2007 (UTC)

I've (temporarily) disabled the background at the footer. GHe (Talk) 17:19, 2 March 2007 (UTC)

Thanks. :) ← Amina (Speak to me) 17:20, 2 March 2007 (UTC)

Hello

Hola! What would you suggest I start working on? Any suggestions? Elven Arya 23:06, 2 March 2007 (UTC)

Hi, and thanks for joining Inheriwiki! You can check out the Community Portal if you're looking for something to do. :) GHe (Talk) 23:24, 2 March 2007 (UTC)

Template

Hiho here! I'm currently having trouble with a template on InheriwikiEs. The template is here. What I want it to do, is to have a border and be on the right side of the article whereit is used. Moreover, it got something you talked to me some time ago: the using if "ifs" to show only the categories placed in the article. ‎Dreyesbo- (‎talk) 14:07, 3 March 2007 (UTC)

How does it look now? GHe (Talk) 17:22, 3 March 2007 (UTC)

Much better, thanks :) ‎Dreyesbo- (‎talk) 20:05, 3 March 2007 (UTC)

Inheriwiki es una mierda means "Inheriwiki is a shit", so they should be deleted for bad grammar usage as well! Therequiembellishere 21:03, 4 March 2007 (UTC)

Community Portal

I had 2 questions on the help page (you might have noticed) and I they didn't fit in any other group so I made 2 new groups and I thought it was a bit much to be creating all these new headings for each individual new question, so I was wondering if that was bad, or its just simply what its for. ? Elven Arya 23:04, 5 March 2007 (UTC)

It's correct to start a new forum page for a new topic. :) GHe (Talk) 00:51, 6 March 2007 (UTC)

Thanx. Elven Arya 19:30, 6 March 2007 (UTC)

ShurtyWiki

Did you ever have that chat with ShutyWiki and Inheriwiki? What was the result? I saw the disscusion at Forum:ShurtyWiki and didn't really know what the outcome was. Elven Arya 17:48, 10 March 2007 (UTC)

We did have a chat; however, Mike refused to merge with us and instead, insisted that we merge with them because, to be honest, they want full control and absolute power over Inheritance in all fields and areas. Unfortunately, one who tries to accomplish too much ends up doing very little, and they've already had problems with mass vandalism. (I don't know (or really care) who's vandalizing their wiki, but it's not us. The vandal is being very creative though, since he/she used names of Inheriwiki and Wikia users.)

Us merging with them is unacceptable because:

• We started first
• We have more content
• We have better software and support

…as well as other reasons like…

• We're more established
• We actually know how to use MediaWiki properly and to its full potential

It was later found out that they did in fact want competition due to the following conversation:

GHe

• "so I'm just wondering if PIE started because the existence of Inheriwiki was unknown at the time, or whether Inheriwiki was deemed unsuitable for PIE"

Mike

• "I wasn't aware of Inheritance Wiki when we made the decision to start PIE"
• "it was made as a collaboration between the writers at SFF and our own staff, who had begun work on an encyclopedia"

GHe

• "would it have changed the decision if the existence of Inheriwiki was known, or would the project still have continued?"

Mike

• "continued"

GHe

• "because, as you may or may not know, there were already problems encountered"
• "one user tried to make PIE better and copied 5, if not more, articles from Inheriwiki without regards to the GFDL license"
• "it's resolved now, but I just wanted to point out the problems with duplicates and possible competition between them"

Mike

• "I've ran fan sites for over 6 years"
• "I'm well aware of the "problems", which I don't agree are problems"
• "competition is natural"

So if they want it that way, then so be it. We'll give them more than the competition they want. GHe (Talk) 19:20, 10 March 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for the clarification and I completely agree with you. I also took a look at their site, and I saw exactaly what your talking about. Thanks! Elven Arya 22:21, 10 March 2007 (UTC)

Map of Alagaësia

I created an article, Ardwen which is lake in Alagaësia, but I don't know how to put a Map of Alagaësia with a red highlighted spot on it. I also think in the actual Map of Alagaësia, you need to put a link from the picture to the article Ardwen, but I don't know how to do that either. Any ideas? Elven Arya 22:36, 10 March 2007 (UTC)

Actually, Ardwen Lake already existed, so I redirected Ardwen to there. There is already a highlighted picture for the lake, and I just added the link on Map of Alagaësia to Ardwen Lake. GHe (Talk) 22:37, 10 March 2007 (UTC)

Sorry about that. When I searched to see if Ardwen Lake existed as an article, I just searched 'Ardwen'. Thanks anyway! Elven Arya 22:44, 10 March 2007 (UTC)

I'll do just that....I'm working on it! Elven Arya 22:46, 10 March 2007 (UTC)

I fixed the Beirland article, and I believe you fixed the Ardwen article. I'll be more careful next time, and thanks for your help! Elven Arya 22:52, 10 March 2007 (UTC)

Wait, I thought I did, but when I went to Beirland or Ardwen, it doesn't have the redirect notice, but when I go to edit the page, it already has the proper HTML to redirect the page. Then I save the page and the redirect notice appears. What happended? Elven Arya 23:09, 10 March 2007 (UTC)

NEVER MIND!!!! Sorry for all the trouble, it is fixed. It was probably you, or someone else who fixed it. SORRY!!!!! ! Elven Arya 23:11, 10 March 2007 (UTC)

Most of the Bodies Of Water are not accessible from the map. Theses are: the Anora River, Az Ragni, the Beartooth River, the Boar's Eye, the Edda River, the Gaena River, Igualda Falls, the Jiet River, Kóstha-mérna, the Ninor River, the Ramr River, the Röna Lake, the Sea, the Toark River and the Tüdosten Lake. Quite a daunting list, but I think most of it is from the fact that rivers are hard to put an exact position on them. Perhaps a circle around the longest portion would work? Therequiembellishere 01:41, 12 March 2007 (UTC)

O, and the Southern Isles as a collective.Therequiembellishere

Hey, I have no idea how to do it either, but I would like to learn and might be able to help. What does it involve? Is there a help page or something I could learn it from? Elven Arya 19:16, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

Basically, you need an image program that can tell you the co-ordinates of a certain location on Image:Alagaesia.jpg. (This is often done through displaying the current location of the cursor, and moving the cursor to the desired location. Personally, I use GIMP as my imaging program, and it can be downloaded for free at http://www.gimp.org/.) Once you're able to find the co-ordinates, simply refer to MediaWikiWiki:Extension:ImageMap for instructions on how to use the extension. GHe (Talk) 23:25, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

I'll do that! Thanks. Elven Arya 20:46, 17 March 2007 (UTC)

One final question (I hope), is it same to assume that the patch of land above Aroughs are the Burning Plains? Therequiembellishere 04:47, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

It's been quite a while since I read the books, so I'm not 100% sure. Perhaps try asking Amina skywalker? GHe (Talk) 23:18, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

It's been a while for me, too. I did go back and look at the chapter "The Burning Plains", though, and as far as I can make out that patch is not the Burning Plains. As Eragon approaches the Plains from the northeast, the Jiet River is described as being "before" him, with the two armies (Empire and Varden) on the eastern banks of the river. Wouldn't that make the Plains more or less next to Melian?—The preceding unsigned comment was added by Amina skywalker (Talk ▪ Contributions ▪ Logs).

Doesn't it have to be somewhere near water since "The ship completed the seemingly impossible task and arrived at Surda in time for its crew to aid the Varden in the Battle of the Burning Plains." (from Dragon Wing#Through the Boar's Eye)? GHe (Talk) 00:17, 20 March 2007 (UTC)

I thought the ship traveled down the Jiet River to get to the Plains. (And apologies for forgetting to sign my name :P). ← Amina (Speak to me) 00:21, 20 March 2007 (UTC)

Not sure. :S Are there any other clues at the end of Eldest? GHe (Talk) 00:25, 20 March 2007 (UTC)

I assumed near Aroughs because it's near water and it's very close to the border; I don't think Surda would battle so far away from itself, they'd have nowher the run if they lost! Therequiembellishere 03:02, 20 March 2007 (UTC)

Toark/Torak

Oops! I took it from the Wanted pages.Therequiembellishere 03:35, 20 March 2007 (UTC)

I'm still having that problem with logging in, so if my IP # is anywhere please forgive me.

Now, if you think that an Admin disobeys rules/gives offensive content where can you comment upon it? I guess you could say: Where can I complain about it? ( Not just in Inheriwiki, but in other Wikis as well...) -Elven Arya

Depends on the wiki and the situation.. Any specific case/incident? GHe (Talk) 01:02, 15 May 2007 (UTC)

I recently joined Harry Potter Wiki and saw this. He/she did apologize, but I do this he/she could have shown a little more discretion in what they said. Do they possibly not have talk page guidlines on Harry Potter Wiki? I didn't exactly understand the context of the situation, but...-Elven Arya

I just found this too. -Elven Arya

The issue has been discussed with other users/admins/staff, and CatherineMunro left messages on the user talk pages of the two involved admins. GHe (Talk) 22:56, 15 May 2007 (UTC)

Copyrights

If there is a picture we get off of google image or such that is a still from a movie, can we put the picture in an article without getting a copyright? Does it depend on the picture? Is there a how-to article that answers my questions about this so I can stop bothering you? Elven Arya 19:56, 21 May 2007 (UTC)

This explains fair use of copyrighted works. (This may also help, though we aren't necessarily as strict as Wikipedia.) All uploaded files should have both the source and licensing stated. GHe (Talk) 20:24, 21 May 2007 (UTC)

Rollback rights

Yes, that would be nice, thank you. I have already been givin rollback rights at the Harry Potter wiki so I already know how to use it. - User:Dragon Rider

Fair Use

All the pages about uploading images look very intimidating... (With good reason) and I wanted to ask.. I wanted to upload an image of an urgal(it's farther down the page) and at the bottm it says, "Sources: Image property of 20th Century Fox". Would that mean the the group photo complies with the fair use rule or not? -Bella 23:56, 2 June 2007 (UTC)

It should be okay to use with {{fairuse}} and the sourcing stated. GHe (Talk) 19:53, 3 June 2007 (UTC)

Many thanks, Bella 00:27, 26 June 2007 (UTC)

An extra question....for Talk:Book 3, much of it makes absolutly no sense or has random comments scattered on the page. I was wondering, the whole section where peole listed rumors and such, can't that just be deleted? I think a lot of other stuff could be deleted on the page too. Or is it just not worth anyone's time to do it? Bella 00:34, 26 June 2007 (UTC)

Well, since the third book is not out yet, there really isn't much canonical content to write or discuss. Quite a lot of visitors come to talk about Book 3 and there really isn't an easy way to forcibly prohibit the addition of rumors, etc. Both the content and discussion pages are a mess right now (and any attempts to clean up would probably result in the pages returning to their previous state a few days later), and I think the best plan is to move both pages to /Archive or something once the third book does come out, and start anew under the actual book title. GHe (Talk) 18:01, 27 June 2007 (UTC)

Yeah, you're probably right, it was just bugging me that the page was just full of practically useless stuff. Bella 16:50, 30 June 2007 (UTC)

Are we having a meeting this month? I apologise if we've already had it, I've been working on a production. Therequiembellishere 04:04, 27 June 2007 (UTC)

Inzilbeth

I have received a message telling me how I have been, what was it "damaging", to Inheriwiki. I highly doubt that naming the section Tolkien Copying is "damaging". If one truly believes that the name Inzilbeth with the circumflex over the same letter as Tolkien's truly came from Mr. Paolini's imagination, than one most certainly know nothing of comparative linguistics.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 64.83.210.43 (Talk ▪ Contributions ▪ Logs).

What's so malicious? Hmm, maybe I'm blind. 64.83.217.109 20:37, 6 July 2007 (UTC)

If I may interject here, it is because no writer truly has an "original idea", they are all based off another writer. It is also extremely biased to assume he copied from Tolkien directly as they both based several items off of Nordic mythology. You also present this in a fairly malicious way which is damaging. Also, please sign your comments with four tildes and assume good faith, GHe is one of two people who have kept the Inheritance Trilogy Wikipedia going and verbally assaulting him and the entire community here does not bode well. Many thanks--Therequiembellishere 20:21, 30 June 2007 (UTC)

Category:Userboxes

How come at Category:Userboxes, under "A", my user name is listed? Bella 13:02, 3 July 2007 (UTC)

I fixed it. The userboxes are not really designed to be substed, but rather directly transcluded. Substing also carries over the category, which is why your page was categorized under Category:Userboxes. GHe (Talk) 17:01, 3 July 2007 (UTC)

Image

The above image is in use on someone's userpage, which I think you can do if it is only used on your userpage. What I couldn't find anything about was whether or not you can use that image in a userbox. Is there a help page about it or something? ~Bella 11:53, 4 July 2007 (UTC)

Sorry, it's just me and my stupid questions again....I figured it out. ~Bella 16:11, 10 July 2007 (UTC)

Therequiembellishere

That is outrageous! Yes, Tolkien was influenced by different things, but many aspects of his story were original. If you cannot see the significance in the name Inzilbeth, then you are truly blind. There is no character in all my reading on Norse mythology that is named Inzilbeth. The name is directly copied from Tolkien. Plus the circumflex is on the "e". How coincidental. Just because Mr. Paolini cannot come up with ANYTHING original does not mean that other fantasy writers cannot. Plus, if all writers are deriving from someone else, where did the deriving start? Your comment was totally out-of-line and illogical in attempts to justify the heinous copying of Mr. Paolini. Outrancier!—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 64.83.210.43 (Talk ▪ Contributions ▪ Logs).

Just as many of Mister Paolini's aspects are original! Don't dare to call me illogical or out-of-line, when you are attacking me on another users discussion page (GHe, I am truly sorry for this), and yes, I have read Mister Tolkien's works, yes, I do realise that Mister Paolini takes many things from him, so did Lewis, Carrol, Rowilng and other modern writers, this does not make them plagiarists. If any writer can make a work without showing similarities to another, they are, by far, the most ingenious writer. As to where the derivation began, I don't know or care to know. As my user page mentions, I am Obsessive Compulsive, but apparently not nearly to your extent! I don't care to trace writer-after-writer to find the first Greek writer to come-up with an original story. In addition to this, your little French comment did not go unnoticed either and as you can communicate in English so well, that I as a Grammar Nazi, applaud you for makes me wonder why you would do this? Do you think I don't know what it means? Ugh, please continue this on my discussion page if you will and sign your damn comments with four tildes as it says above. Therequiembellishere 05:10, 7 July 2007 (UTC)

On my and Turukano's behalf--

I would like to sincerely apologise for the above argument. we have since resolved the problem and I have informed him of using my page. I hope you never get caught (unwillingly, at least) in anyone else's disputes. Therequiembellishere 06:57, 9 July 2007 (UTC)

No problem. GHe (Talk) 01:13, 10 July 2007 (UTC)

Dutch

Ok you can do what you think you have to do ;-). Btw, when I click on "Monobook skin" (in your message), everything is in Dutch, but when I click on something else it's in English again. Can you make it permanently in Dutch? Glaedr 19:12, 30 July 2007 (UTC)

Simply go to Special:Preferences, and change en - English to nl - Nederlands :) GHe (Talk) 19:19, 30 July 2007 (UTC)

Skin

Hi GHe, when I open Erfgoed wiki while I'm not logged in the wiki is in the "smoke" skin. When I log in it changes to my skin, MonoBook. Smoke is the default, but I want the default to be MonoBook, like in the English Inheriwiki. How do I do this? Glaedr 10:57, 5 August 2007 (UTC)

I'll see if a Wikia staff can make the change. GHe (Talk) 01:57, 9 August 2007 (UTC)

The default should now be set to monobook. GHe (Talk) 03:18, 9 August 2007 (UTC)

Ok thanks! --Glaedr 18:47, 9 August 2007 (UTC)

Thanks!

Hi. Thanks for correcting the link on the Literature Wikia! And thank you for introducing me to the Inheritance books. I finally had a chance to read Eragon, and I enjoyed in very much! Take care. -- CocoaZen 02:58, 21 August 2007 (UTC)

No problem. Have fun reading. :) GHe (Talk) 16:36, 21 August 2007 (UTC)

Scrollbox

Hi, I am making the "Eragon (boek)" page and I want to use the scrollbox for the "list of chapters" like in the English page. So I copied the Template:Scrollbox... thing (I think that is called a template, and in Dutch a "sjabloon"), but when I save it there is a red link saying "sjabloon: scrollbox", so it isn't working. How do I show the scrollbox with the list of chapters? --Glaedr 10:29, 24 August 2007 (UTC)

Fixed. GHe (Talk) 15:43, 24 August 2007 (UTC)

Ok is it fixed for all the templates? --Glaedr 17:24, 27 August 2007 (UTC)

The templates themselves have to exist on nl.inheritance.wikia.com. GHe (Talk) 17:27, 27 August 2007 (UTC)

Ah ok and how do I make them?--Glaedr 07:52, 28 August 2007 (UTC)

Use the code from this wiki and translate any English terms to Dutch? GHe (Talk) 17:03, 28 August 2007 (UTC)

Which code? On the "Eragon (boek)" page I can't put in the Alagaesia map where you can click on the places to go to their article, neither can I make that "show and hide" prologue box.Glaedr 13:04, 30 August 2007 (UTC)

Added both. Feel free to make any necessary translations. Also, I'm assuming that [show] --> [tonen], but what's the Dutch word for [hide]? GHe (Talk) 20:11, 30 August 2007 (UTC)

Hide is "verbergen" and imperatif is "verberg". Thanks, do I always have to ask you to fix those templates? I mean, you can do it if you want, but I don't want to bother you too much, so if there is a way to do it myself... Glaedr 11:42, 2 September 2007 (UTC)

Most of the time, it's rather simple to carry features over to nl.inheritance as all that's needed is a single component like a template. Other times, extra scripts/variables/items needs to be considered, so it may be more complex. If something is in the form: {{something}}, you can simply go to http://inheritance.wikia.com/wiki/Template:Something, copy the code, and paste it into http://nl.inheritance.wikia.com/wiki/Sjabloon:Something for it to work there (any interface translations can also be applied). However, do note that the code itself may use code from elsewhere, and if that's the case, the template may not function like it's suppose to on nl.inheritance. If you need help with (a) specific case(s) in the future, feel free to leave me another message. :) GHe (Talk) 21:06, 2 September 2007 (UTC)

Ok can you show an exemple from a real template because I don't understand that code thing... Also, isn't it better to add "Orik" in the "favorite character" poll? I think I'm going to add in Erfgoed wiki. Glaedr 18:21, 3 September 2007 (UTC)

For example, if you want to use {{quote}} on nl.inheritance, copy http://inheritance.wikia.com/index.php?title=Template:Quote&action=edit, paste it into http://nl.inheritance.wikia.com/index.php?title=Sjabloon:Quote&action=edit (or translate "Quote" to Dutch and paste it into http://nl.inheritance.wikia.com/index.php?title=Sjabloon:TRANSLATIONofQuote&action=edit), make any necessary translations (none in this case), and save the page. Then, to use the template, simply put {{quote|The actual quote|The person who said it}} to produce:

As for Orik, I can't really add it now since the poll has already begun, and adding it would mean resetting the poll and losing all current votes. GHe (Talk) 18:30, 3 September 2007 (UTC)

On the edit page of the quote of the day there are no quotes: they are together in one template: {{QOTD}}. So I can't copy the code...

I added Orik and now I see that the poll was reseted... Fortunately there were only 4 votes ;-) Thanks. Glaedr 18:05, 5 September 2007 (UTC)

For now, just fill Sjabloon:QOTD/1 to Sjabloon:QOTD/31 with different quotes. That's all that's needed to get the quote rotation working on Hoofdpagina. GHe (Talk) 21:05, 8 September 2007 (UTC)

IP-adress

Can I send messages or communicate with people that make articles, but are not registered? I only know their IP-adress and I want to say them things Glaedr 19:18, 19 September 2007 (UTC)

You can talk to them via their talk page. It would be [[User talk:The user's IP]]. GHe (Talk) 22:52, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

Sorry for my long absence, I've been busy with school stuff and so on... I think there is missing something in the Eragon (book) article: in the prologue (A Shade of Fear) there is a long piece of text missing, maybe you should check ;-). Glaedr 18:25, 23 October 2007 (UTC)

Hi, the prologue should now be complete. GHe (Talk) 22:05, 26 October 2007 (UTC)

October 2007

Thanks a lot!

You probably don't know who I am ... I created this site a loooooooong time ago, and I just wanted to thank you for keeping it alive :) (P.S.: I won't be here for a while, so you can contact me at kumarhk@gmail.com if you want to ... which is unlikely ... anyway, thanks again!) Kumarhk 10:00, 26 October 2007 (UTC)

No problem! :) GHe (Talk) 22:05, 26 October 2007 (UTC)

Book 4

Hi, As new book has been anounced. Just tought you should know :P. --‎Dreyesbo- (‎talk) 15:13, 30 October 2007 (UTC) -Edit- Sorry for the double edit, but the last post was made really fast, 'cause the news. Now, major changes will have to be made, or not? Like renaming the Wiki, or editing tons of pages? Or just leave it like this, and post the info for Book 4? --‎Dreyesbo- (‎talk) 15:21, 30 October 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for the update. I'll try to look over it in detail over the weekend and see what changes need to be made. I'll try to stay on IRC at that time so if anybody else is available, discussion can take place. GHe (Talk) 21:04, 30 October 2007 (UTC)

Then why don't you do that (it would be easier for you guys)? I'll try to help out changing "trilogy" to "cycle" on articles so you shouldn't really have to worry about it. LethalReflex^{Fire Breath} 04:43, 3 November 2007 (UTC)

We are. The templates are subst:'d, so the actual text from one of the templates is reflected on the talk page. I already changed "trilogy" to "cycle" on the templates, so any further welcomes will result in "cycle". GHe (Talk) 04:48, 3 November 2007 (UTC)

Dutch Inheritance Cycle

All good and well, but I have no idea what "Erfgoed Trilogie" is going to be now: maybe "Erfgoed Cyclus"? Don't know, I'll have to wait to see the last Inheritance news on Dutch sites ;-). And also, can you help me making a good image for the site (in the upper left corner)? I have the image but I don't know how to add text. Glaedr 19:56, 7 November 2007 (UTC)

Dreyesbo (Talk) changed the text for the English logo, so he may be able to add it for the Dutch one too. I'm not very great with these image tasks, so it's probably better to ask him. :) GHe (Talk) 20:52, 7 November 2007 (UTC)

Ok thanks! --Glaedr 19:18, 9 November 2007 (UTC)

• About this, GHe, do you know what font was used on the logo in this wiki? I rather use that font on both Erfgoed, and InheriwikiEs. --‎Dreyesbo- (‎talk) 20:46, 9 November 2007 (UTC)
  • I'm afraid I don't. :S You'll have to contact Amina skywalker (Talk) about it. GHe (Talk) 21:54, 9 November 2007 (UTC)

Back with a bang!

I swear to you, once more information about book three comes out, I'll be your big editor again! Therequiembellishere 17:47, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

Hi

Are non-admins allowed to welcome new users or is it an admins job? LethalReflex^{Fire Breath} 17:24, 23 November 2007 (UTC)

I've done it, so you can. GHe is its just the usual person to do so. Amina used to do it occasionally too, but it seems she's working. Therequiembellishere 19:40, 23 November 2007 (UTC)

Yes, anybody can welcome new users, and it would be of help too. :) I'm currently quite busy in real life and as a Wikia janitor, I'm pretty involved with other aspects of Wikia, so it would be great if you can help out. :) GHe (Talk) 21:43, 23 November 2007 (UTC)

Then I'll try to do that then. LethalReflex^{Fire Breath} 22:58, 26 November 2007 (UTC)

Do I welcome IPs? If so then do I use the same template? LethalReflex^{Fire Breath} 02:29, 29 November 2007 (UTC)

IPs are {{w}} while user accounts are {{w-n}}. GHe (Talk) 02:53, 29 November 2007 (UTC)

Thanks. LethalReflex^{Fire Breath} 22:40, 29 November 2007 (UTC)

Trilogía > Saga

Hey, how are you doing? I was wondering if you can use the AWB to change "Trilogía" into "Saga" on all the articles who need it, in InheriwikiEs. Thanks in advance :P --‎Dreyesbo- (‎talk) 17:37, 5 December 2007 (UTC)

The majority of the changes should be completed. There may still be a few that'll need to be changed later on. If you're interested in AWB/MWB, feel free to download the program and explore it, and I can add you to the access list for the tool. :) GHe (Talk) 01:48, 6 December 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for the editing; I might try AWB, I'll let you know if I decide to use it ;). --‎Dreyesbo- (‎talk) 03:26, 6 December 2007 (UTC)

Template:Dwarves

What do you think about this template? Should we build each race a respective one, or is it redundant? It is based on Template:Clans, btw. --‎Dreyesbo- (‎talk) 19:01, 8 December 2007 (UTC)

We could have one for each race. It'd be a good summary of the various aspects of that race. GHe (Talk) 00:00, 9 December 2007 (UTC)
