Capes of distinction
Hey, I noticed your edit to the cape of distinction article. I believe that the reason your edit spit out random code is due to the fact that you're using the rich text editor. If you edit pages in source mode, this should not happen. Hope this helps. 08:35, April 3, 2011 (UTC)

Signature
Hey. I've noticed a slight problem with your signature - specifically that it is posting the code directly on to talk pages. Looking at it this is most likely due to your preferences. To fix it, go to your preferences, ensure that "Custom Signature" is checked, and paste this into the "Signature" field: Signatures/Flaysian This should fix it. Feel free to ask me questions. 14:06, April 3, 2011 (UTC)

RE:RfA Request
Hey, thank you for wishing to nominate me. (: However, I don't think this would be the best time for several reasons, one being that I am in the middle of a huge move to another state... Nonetheless, I appreciate it, but now is just not a good time. (: 21:44, April 14, 2011 (UTC)
 * Aww thanks. (: 16:08, April 15, 2011 (UTC)

Signature
It appears that your signature is still depositing code everywhere, could you please make sure that you've followed the instructions from the user above who previously noticed the issue and that the problem is actually fixed. If you don't understand something or run into problems, just ask. Cheers, 00:33, April 17, 2011 (UTC)
 * Whoops, you just did it again on my talk. I think I'll try and help you with this problem, could you copy and paste exactly what it says in the signature box in your preferences onto my talk page. 01:00, April 18, 2011 (UTC)

I was going to have "Hi..." as my section header, but apparently the spam filter doesn't like that
Look, if somebody says not to remove something, please, don't remove it. Especially if they provide a reason. And if they add Under construction, and they have the reason of "Please don't remove the construction template. I have a lot more to add, but can't do anymore today." don't remove it with the edit summary "Removed Under Construction template - all information seems present and accurate." because that makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. Seriously... 21:52, April 20, 2011 (UTC)
 * I did say I wanted it kept... 22:28, April 21, 2011 (UTC)

RE:Thanks
Sure. I know you're not lying now, with the thread and all, it just didn't seem likely that the hacker would be on and then 15 minutes later you were on. Glad I could help, but I didn't do much. Sorry I doubted you, too. Good luck with all.

Question is, why aren't they in the user talk namespace where they will be notified instead of their userpage? Last time I checked, welcome messages on this wiki are only on talk pages. 14:14, July 15, 2011 (UTC)
 * Looks like you've been here since last December, so I take it was your joining of the Welcoming Committee. Anyway, no, you do not have to redo anything. Cheers, 17:08, July 15, 2011 (UTC)

Where is his name in the Wanted Pages? 18:15, July 17, 2011 (UTC)

It's okay. I make mistakes too. Smithing (talk | contribs) 21:34, July 17, 2011 (UTC)


 * Remember that you only need to clear red links that are on articles/talk pages/project pages and not special pages (such as recent changes or upload logs). It's because the red links on articles/talk pages/project pages appear in the Wanted Pages, and we don't want to clutter up the list. Thanks, 18:41, July 22, 2011 (UTC)

Cook's Assistant
I've looked over the revision, and I've noticed some problems with it. The first is saying "he tells you", instead of the shorter "he says". It's simply unnecessary to put a you there. It's neater to put he says in my opinion.

In the Obtaining the ingredients section, why was the "you can" removed? Right now, it's written as though it's necessary to take the empty pot on the table, when in reality it is only optional. The "you can" should still stay there.

Why did you replace the and with an or under the Obtaining a super large egg subsection? And is used to connect the two words together, so as to say that you can pick up a super large egg in Fred the Farmer's Farm, which is both north of Lumbridge Castle and south-east of Mill Lane Mill. Or, however, is not ideal as it can be used to introduce another possibility.

Also, why did you replace the "extra fine kind" with "extra fine flour"? Flour is now used three times in a single sentence. It would sound less repetitive if it was only said twice in the sentence.

In addition, you removed content from the "Required" section, and changed the title to a misleading one. In the section, your version also has less detail than the other one. Accident maybe? Cheers, Smithing (talk | contribs) 13:53, August 8, 2011 (UTC)

Changing it to "it is advised" is also sort of a problem, because it is like telling someone what you think he/she should do. However, another way people can obtain the item is mentioned in the paragraph. If players should do that, then what is the point of giving them another option? "Talk to Millie Miller about making extra fine flour from your normal flour before climbing to the top floor, as otherwise she will not convert it." For the quest, you shouldn't have any normal flour to begin with. In addition, stating "as otherwise she will not convert it" is not specific enough. This only tells readers what she will not do, not what she will. Readers should know what she actually will do. The version still has too many problems in my opinion. Smithing (talk | contribs) 16:32, August 8, 2011 (UTC)
 * Using tells or says isn't that big of a deal anyways. I have some more issues with the changes.


 * Sorry for the late response, just did not feel like responding 'till now. I made some changes to your version due to some accuracy and wording concerns. For example, "the these". I also removed the "it is advised" part as it seemed to be more of an opinion than based on sources. Anyways, thanks for helping make the article better. I did not even think about replacing the "He requires you to obtain a bucket of top-quality milk, a super large egg, and a pot of extra fine flour, and to bring the items back to him." part with something shorter. Smithing (talk | contribs) 23:39, August 10, 2011 (UTC)


 * I just removed "it is advised" based on what the sources were advising players to do. SalsRealm suggests that you buy the pot from the general store. Tip.It suggests that you get it at or around Mill Lane Mill, or you buy it at the general store. If it was so obvious, than I do not see why those sites do not suggest this. Sources suggest different things, so I continue to believe "you can" is the most appropriate thing to use here, based on what some of them are saying. It is better to remain completely accurate.

The reason I used "you should" in the extra fine flour section is because practically every source suggests that, although it is not necessary to obtain the grain there. I checked the sources before editing the article.

"Required to complete" may mislead readers. I mean, the quest is not required to complete a Lumbridge painting, it is required to buy one. I agree with you that "Required" is not a suitable title. Smithing (talk | contribs) 14:12, August 11, 2011 (UTC)


 * True, but I'm still unsure as to the factual accuracy of that statement. That still seems more like opinion than fact, but feel free to make the change. Also, don't think that another section should be added. The section is already short enough, making another section would only make it shorter (and less appealing to read in my opinion). I would recommend just changing the name to "Required for". Smithing (talk | contribs) 16:14, August 12, 2011 (UTC)

Ok, cool. Nice working with you too. Smithing (talk | contribs) 19:40, August 12, 2011 (UTC)

RE: Altered comment?
The "removal" of the comment was just a standard edit conflict, though I don't why I didn't get a warning about it. I might've copied what I had, refreshed the page, and pasted for some reason, I can't really remember. I don't know what question you're referring to. 14:29, August 8, 2011 (UTC)

Warning users
This is not vandalism. 16:52, August 10, 2011 (UTC)
 * It wasn't nonsense either. 17:03, August 10, 2011 (UTC)
 * RS:AGF?? He was adding what he thought was a nice little bit of trivia regarding the cape. 17:07, August 10, 2011 (UTC)
 * Just so ya know, Test1 would have been sufficient for that 17:27, August 10, 2011 (UTC)
 * Okay, but it wasn't "nonsense", just unnecessary. Ciph is right, just make sure to not overly-warn people and scare them away, especially when they're not vandalizing. 17:33, August 10, 2011 (UTC)

This isn't vandalism. 18:36, October 14, 2011 (UTC)
 * I'm not "out to get you". I just don't like when people misuse the rollback tool, so please don't. (: 19:08, October 14, 2011 (UTC)

RE:Undoing the undone
The first one was a matter of consistency with the rest of the article. This edit that you undid was, however, wrong. The IP edited the link to make it go to the correct page, but you reverted it back. 18:10, August 12, 2011 (UTC)

Userspace edits
Avi.Kris was doing nothing wrong, and did not need to be warned. As her edits were marked as minor, they can be hidden from the Recent Changes, and so they do not neccessarily flood the RC or make looking for vandalism harder 15:22, August 14, 2011 (UTC)

A little thing to say thank you,

Featured content box
I still don't see how that does anything more than what we could accomplish by adding a "vote here" link/button to the existing modules for featured images/articles. As for featured user, I think it's bad idea to advertise voting on it on the main page because it requires 50 non user/user talk/sandbox edits to vote on. I counted 34 words total in that box, in a space of about 108,000 pixels. It's just not a very good use of space with all of the whitespace surrounding it. 22:36, August 25, 2011 (UTC)

Re: Citadel pure
Yeah, Ciph suggested that in game. Right after I pressed save page. It could fit into skill pure though, as a specialised form of one. 16:31, October 31, 2011 (UTC)
 * I've put Citadel pure into Skill pure and redirected the page I made. I think it worked, anyway. I'm not too good at redirects, even with the practice I've had the past couple days. 16:51, October 31, 2011 (UTC)

RE:Deletion
Lol, I shall await that day with cewkies. ^-^ 17:07, October 31, 2011 (UTC)
 * Well, all of those redirects were made because they had a high count on search digest. But people complained on the admin requests so I deleted them. I'm pretty certain that either a small amount of people searched it a lot of times due to fail javascript, or 27 people just had fail javascript. We can't compensate for the amount of times javascript fails (sometimes it fails in the middle of a word, sometimes at the end) and people are smart enough to realize why their search came up with no results.. 00:45, November 1, 2011 (UTC)

logout fake message
You need to remove that from your page. Tricking people into signing a guestbook or other nonsense is allowed but making them log-out is not, this was discussed a couple years ago when we had another guy who didn't know better either.--Degenret01 23:22, November 3, 2011 (UTC)
 * There was no YG thread, it was reasonable people in a talk page discussion who all said yea, we shouldn't do that. The guy doing it was Jake, I do not know his wiki name anymore, he changed it a few times. Are you going to be the kind of guy who insists on a YG thread to force him to be polite? Degenret01 23:36, November 3, 2011 (UTC)
 * Thanks.--Degenret01 23:49, November 3, 2011 (UTC)

Hello, I've removed the false messages box on your userpage. Linking to Special:UserLogout is nothing short of disruptive, especially when another user politely informs you of why it shouldn't be there. In regards to your conversation with Degenret01 above, I'd suggest that you read RS:DBAD. Thanks, 00:00, November 4, 2011 (UTC)

For the kind gossips that I know have been following this conversation, I would like to add that I find no validity or integrity in the above statement, and that the contents of this page have since been restored. 00:40, November 4, 2011 (UTC)
 * Flay, why are you being so stubborn? There doesn't have to be a policy to use common sense (well, actually, UCS is a policy...). And I note your page has been blanked yet again. There's a difference between redirecting someone to a guest book and unwillingly logging them out. 02:32, November 4, 2011 (UTC)
 * It's over, Hofmic, there's no need for that. If nearly any other sysop had come to me about it with a reasonable explanation, I probably would have just removed it and left it at that. 19:50, November 4, 2011

Don't Bite The Newcomers
Come on Flay, this seems really unnecessary. He or she is new and trying to make connections and be a part of the community. Instead of sounding very mean about why he shouldn't apply and won't get the job, you can politely tell him what he can improve on to increase his chances. 05:27, November 20, 2011 (UTC)
 * That's not worded very nicely. A simple "I don't think you're ready yet for this kind of role. Try getting more integrated within the community first" would have been better. It's not just you though. For some reason, many wikians aren't the nicest to new users, whether it be explaining a mistake or something like this. 22:12, November 20, 2011 (UTC)
 * Okay. I remember a lot of times when I thought that explaining things to newer members wasn't great. Sometimes we're nice, sometimes we're not so nice. 22:41, November 20, 2011 (UTC)
