Whoops
I added those previous vfd templates to the articles instead of the talk pages didn't I..:s. Thanks for catching that. 21:08, 15 June 2009 (UTC)

Prayer
Can you please undo my edit on the Prayer article? I tried to undo an edit because prayer isn't 100% needed for barrows, but when I undoed it, most pictures were replaced with "ModifyDeletemove" and when I try to undo it, it just won't. Can you fix the problem please?=) 14:12, 17 June 2009 (UTC)

RE:Rollback
Hi, I would love to use the Rollback tool. It seems much easier for big vandalism than the "undo" tool. I have one small question about it though: it can only rollback edits by one user, and not a whole bunch of different editors, right? Other than that, I think I know how to use it.

By the way, thanks for the compliment =).   Oli4burggraa  Talk 14:09, 18 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Okay, that cleared it up.  [[Image:Zaros_tally.PNG‎]]  Oli4burggraa  Talk[[Image:Runecrafter_hat_y.PNG‎]] 14:20, 18 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Okay, I saw it. Thanks, I will try to use this tool the best I can.  [[Image:Zaros_tally.PNG‎]]  Oli4burggraa  Talk[[Image:Runecrafter_hat_y.PNG‎]] 14:27, 18 June 2009 (UTC)

Question:
Since you're a 'crat, I'll assume you'll know stuff. How can I find out who the administrators are on a wiki where I can't find a list of administrators? 21:23, 21 June 2009 (UTC)

Mmmmmmmmmmmkay, thanks. 20:11, 23 June 2009 (UTC)

Signature category
Could you please add to your signature? Thanks, 16:39, 22 June 2009 (UTC)

Edit lock
I've noticed many users (including you) have userpages that only the owner can edit. Can you post how to do it on my talk page?? Thx, 13:25, 23 June 2009 (UTC)

Yeah, thats what I mean. Thx 13:05, 24 June 2009 (UTC)

Protect
Good call. :P Christine 05:30, 24 June 2009 (UTC)

Nowiki?
Why're you adding &lt;nowiki&gt; to red links in userpages and talk pages? 15:36, 25 June 2009 (UTC)

AzBot
It is a semi-automated bot. I'm monitoring the uploads manually. "The process of creating a bot should usually begin with an idea for a bot being discussed by the community." Since no one responded to the forum post, Forum:Uploading new GEMH images, I can't create a separate bot account, and have to use this semi-automated bot. 01:04, 30 June 2009 (UTC)
 * I do need to add/modify categories for the images, and since there will be 3,300 images, it will flood the RecentChanges. For now, I'm just uploading the images and should not be a problem in the RecentChanges. What should I do? 16:57, 1 July 2009 (UTC)
 * \ Make a bot account. I'd support. Yeah no1 responded to that discussion but its a very old topic. And it annoys me to see all those graphs in the new files. Can't easily see wether some1 uploaded a (wrong) image. 17:02, 1 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Hmmm.. then the new account would need sysopping as well, since I'm planning to delete the old GEMH images which are no longer required. 17:16, 1 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Perhaps you could upload the images on a new bot, mark the old ones if necessary, and delete them with your main account.-- 17:37, 1 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Wouldn't it be easier to host them elsewhere and link them externally so it doesn't have to be constantly uploaded/deleted on the wiki? Aren't deleted images still hosted on the wiki somewhere (for undeletion)? -- 17:20, 1 July 2009 (UTC)
 * How do we host 3,300+ images? Photobucket? The images are linked from templates, and may be included in the Exchange pages themselves. I'm just continuing where PointyBot left off. Just to clarify, only images for moved/deleted Exchange pages will be deleted.--
 * Hmm, can we change what web hosts are allowed for external images, or does Wikia have to do it? -- 17:37, 1 July 2009 (UTC)
 * @Quarenon: Wikia.
 * @Azaz: I don't how many there are, but I'm guessing there might be a lot to delete. I might end up using a semi-auto bot to delete them. This negates the purpose of having a separate account, since I end up using bots for both accounts. 17:43, 1 July 2009 (UTC)

I'll figure out the deletion issue later. For now, I shall upload the images under the account AzBot. Can AzBot be granted bot status, or should this be discussed further in the forum thread I created earlier? 17:58, 1 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Since it in essence is simply the new pointybot (whose purpose already has undergone discussion) I'll bot it as soon as the account is up. As for the deletion part, that will need consensus before it is implemented.-- 18:02, 1 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Azliq, thanks. I suppose this is the best we can do then; using imageshack or photobucket is going to be even messier to deal with.  -- 18:06, 1 July 2009 (UTC)
