No kitty[]

Hi, is the anti spam measure for posting external links will ever go away? or can it be adjusted to only effect users with less then x posts or something. Because it gets really annoying after a while of posting new info with references. (Eternity wiki--AnotherArk (talk) 00:44, 11 December 2013 (UTC)

NP, thanks for looking into it. --AnotherArk (talk) 01:34, 11 December 2013 (UTC)

Theme[]

I was looking into improving our theme, and noticed the tabs on pathofexile Wiki I was wondering its ok for us to copy that tab design?--AnotherArk (talk) 08:41, 7 January 2014 (UTC)

Yeah, sure thing. If you have any problems implementing it, let me know and I can get a team member to have a look. CrsBenjamin (talk) 22:23, 7 January 2014 (UTC)

Hello! sir, got some questions![]

hey, game widow brougth me here to ask you something, you guys do giveaways (https://www.gamepedia.com/giveaways) and i've been wondering if something like a Founder Pack Giveaway from Infinite Crisis, maybe the Basic founder? cuz i'm wanting one but can't afford it, and maybe to have the chance to win one or maybe giveaways crisis coins just asking, thanks :D

Hey there! You've come to the right place. I don't have anything planned like that right at the moment, but I've noted this away in my "Prize Ideas" document and will definitely consider it as a possibility for an upcoming giveaway! Feel free to leave any other suggestions for me anytime! :-) CrsBenjamin (talk) 22:13, 22 February 2014 (UTC)

Hey hi again, so i the founder's packs are gone this 12th march, and i was wondenring if you considered for a basic founder's pack or just some crisis coins, i know at sompoint i will need some crisis coins, and i really want the basic pack, and i hope if this happens it will be a giveaway that last at least for 3 days, sometime i'm busy and i can't check the whole time the website, just that, thanks :D --MrLucho (talk) 05:31, 7 March 2014 (UTC)

I did reach out to them to see if they'd be interested in sponsoring a giveaway but did not hear back yet :-( So, we've got the Titanfall contest right now, and then another one starting in a week or so. Sorry to disappoint on the Crisis coins. CrsBenjamin (talk) 16:44, 7 March 2014 (UTC)

Requesting help at translating goat-sim-articles[]

Hi!

I'd like to help you guys translating the existing articles of goat simulator to German. And I'd like to add some, too ;). Your guidelines (https://help.gamepedia.com/Translation_guidelines) say, I have to contact an admin on his/her talk-site... Uhm... Where the hell shall I post this now? I'm very sorry as I'm totally new to this stuff ;).

Greetings! - Mo

Hi Mo! As far as the Translation Guidelines go, we just ask that you translate the Main Page and one or two others into German first. The best way is to create the same page with the de language code, and then do likewise for a couple other pages. Then, just write me again and we'll get the German domain started!

Bot[]

Hey, I'm an admin on the Terraria Wiki and recently started using a bot to automate some tasks. This is working great, however to be able to filter the changes made by the bot from the recent changes page and to be able to bypass user rate limits (which actually is already possible by setting up a new session) it would be great if the account was added to the bot user rights group. As an admin I am unable to do so. I've already contacted the local bureaucrats and curse members, however they all seem to be inactive so I came here for help. If possible can the bot account also receive admin user rights, so that I can use it to delete pages (for example to delete pages of completed translation projects) instead of using my main account? --0icke0 (talk) 11:09, 15 June 2014 (UTC)

Done, please add a note on the bot's userpage as to its purpose and bot-ness. CrsBenjamin 16:17, 16 June 2014 (UTC)

Double redirect[]

Hi. I just wanted to let you know there is a double redirect in your userspace. Also, please delete this page. −50.141.212.168 (JEC6789) at 01:27, 9 December 2014 (UTC)

Thanks! Guess I've been careless moving around some of my pages. I've deleted Pokemon as well. CrsBenjamin 02:32, 9 December 2014 (UTC)

Filter for non-English text.[]

Hello. I fixed text at Translation Guidelines for Russians. But Filter revert my saving at this page. Can you replace Russian (Русский) text with this updated. I even can't add text at this page. So I post it at my sandbox page. ← Alex Great talk 15:57, 12 August 2015 (UTC)

Sure thing, done! Probably just being caught because you don't have many edits here. Once you've got 3-5, even just "test" edits in your sandbox, the filters should relax and let you be. CrsBenjamin 16:12, 12 August 2015 (UTC)
Maybe. Thanks. P.S. Cyrillic letters doesn't support text font. And it's look terrible. But header texts looks perfect. ← Alex Great talk 16:27, 12 August 2015 (UTC)
Can you elaborate on that? I'm not quite sure what you mean. Are you talking about the <tt> </tt> tags? Or that the font used on this wiki doesn't properly support Cyrillic? For the latter, you could try using something like <span style="font-family: sans-serif;"> ... </span>.CrsBenjamin 16:36, 12 August 2015 (UTC)
Yes, I'm talking about Montserrat font that doesn't support cyrillic. I think it's the little things on the wiki is not so much the Cyrillic text. As default font used sans-serif. ← Alex Great talk 16:40, 12 August 2015 (UTC)
Well, if you're serious about wanting to translate the Help wiki, once we set up a new domain we could use a more compatible font for sure. Also, a lot of our pages are copied/adapted from MediaWiki's help pages, so as you translate you could probably do likewise and save yourself some effort. CrsBenjamin 16:47, 12 August 2015 (UTC)

Promotion request - Heroes of the Storm[]

Hey, The Wiki Admins in the Heroes of the Storm Wiki and the Guardian barely edits or enter in the Wiki leaving lot of work to do; like deleting pages (there are lots of articles and images that need delete), ban spammers. I am requesting to be promoted to Guardian of the Wiki. --Senescalzin Talk with me! 17:27, 8 July 2016 (UTC)

I've passed this along to the Wiki manager for that project, User:Malvodion, for consideration. CrsBenjamin (talk) Curseicon 18:22, 8 July 2016 (UTC)

News on disabling achievement popups?[]

Hi. I talked with you about a year ago about disabling popups here. Do you know if there's been any progress on this issue? - AnnanFay (talk) 03:01, 30 March 2017 (UTC)

Good timing! We're actually testing a new version of the Achievements system right now that includes this feature. So, soon(tm)! CrsBenjamin (talk) Curseicon 14:58, 30 March 2017 (UTC)

Outdated fortnite video[]

Hello, I participate in fortnite wiki (editor in english wiki, wiki guardian in italian version) and I'd like to change the video in the front page because the gameplay shown and its graphics are highly outdated. Do you guys have any plans on making a newer video? Is it ok if we use another video?.Edgarjdq (talk) 00:44, 22 June 2018 (UTC)

Have a chat with Kittymmeow, your wiki manager — Game widow (talk) 14:35, 22 June 2018 (UTC)
Looks like we're working on a plan for this now! CrsBenjamin (talk) Curseicon 15:09, 22 June 2018 (UTC)
