User talk:Quarenon

Welcome!

 * Thank you! I've contributed to Wikipedia, and other MediaWiki's before, so I should be right at home here with the features. Hopefully, I'll make some worthwhile contributions, too! --Quarenon 04:27, 17 May 2009 (UTC)
 * You're doing great on this wiki, and nice page you got now =) 01:37, 14 June 2009 (UTC)

rcrollback
It doesn't seem to work for me even after refreshing my cache. 14:08, 15 June 2009 (UTC)
 * I'll just wait until it works on enhanced recent changes. Thanks though. 17:28, 15 June 2009 (UTC)
 * The rollback button appears on enhanced recent changes now but it disappears several seconds later. 23:13, 15 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Okay, thanks. 23:16, 15 June 2009 (UTC)
 * The only problem I've noticed is that the rollback link is next to all edits, even if they were made consecutively on the same article. Rollback only works on the most recent edit. Also, would it be possible to move the link over next to the talk and contribs links? (i.e. Soldier 1033 (Talk | contribs | rollback) Ignore that 23:27, 15 June 2009 (UTC)
 * I used it earlier and it worked. Thanks a bunch. ^^ By the way, I discovered that the rollback link will appear with AJAX if you uncheck and then recheck the box, but you have to do that every time you load the page. 00:13, 16 June 2009 (UTC)

Header on top
Could I borrow some stuff from it? It looks very nice. 16:46, 18 June 2009 (UTC)

Errrr ._.
I tried to use your Hiscore template, but for some reason it doesn't show up on my Userpage ... Help pl0x? :O 07:38, 20 June 2009 (UTC)

Those cookies I promised

'''Here you go. Enjoy and thanks for signing my guestbook.''' 13:33, 21 June 2009 (UTC)

Thanks
I fixed the code in my signature. Thanks for the heads up! 00:26, 22 June 2009 (UTC)

hi score bot
I know its not making great demands on the server at 1hr 10min seperations, but its excessive to the recent updates. And its really overkill if you think about it. How about twice a day?--Degenret01 16:17, 22 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Did it stop working? lol 07:25, 25 June 2009 (UTC)

LiveStats?
Was it replaced by EzStats? 01:32, 26 June 2009 (UTC)

Comments in Local Time
Could you tell me where the script for Comments in Local Time is? The link isn't working. Thanks. 15:47, 27 June 2009 (UTC)

Header above page
How did you get that? 13:57, 1 July 2009 (UTC)

CENTER tag
Hmmm.. although the tag might have been deprecated, "User agents should continue to support deprecated elements for reasons of backward compatibility." I'll fix the MediaWiki:Common.js now, but we use a lot of CENTER tags in this wiki. Finding and replacing them all would be a challenge. You up for the task? 15:26, 1 July 2009 (UTC)
 * I was about to edit that. Thanks for pointing it out.  15:48, 1 July 2009 (UTC)

>_>
If I had a dollar for every font tag I've corrected..... 17:10, 1 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I noticed it on recent changes and it's pretty 1337. 17:19, 1 July 2009 (UTC)

You're the best!
Thanks a Guthixian GodSword! How? 18:13, 1 July 2009 (UTC)

Bot
I was thinking of trying to write a bot to fix deprecated HTML tags but I have no idea where to begin. Could you give me some pointers? 04:34, 2 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Uh.. what cookie file do I use? 21:29, 2 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Okay. Do I need any of these: DB_FILE, LOCK_FILE, LOG_FORMAT 22:11, 2 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Thanks again. Wish me luck lol.. never tried this before. I went ahead and requested the bot flag at Forum:HTML Tidying Bot. 22:26, 2 July 2009 (UTC)

You, sir,
Are a God. 04:18, 3 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Can you add more smileys? Or just limited amount, so it won't clog the editing button things? 04:24, 3 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Is it ok to add more than one of your scripts? Or will it be "Corrupty" ? 04:37, 3 July 2009 (UTC) (Lol, corrupty)

Report button script
Would it be possible for you to make a script that reports vandalism at RS:CVU and reverts it? (You would make 2 separate scripts for rollback and normal users) If you could, that would be AWESOME. 20:46, 3 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Haha, that would've been 1337 if I had that back during my rollback days.  20:48, 3 July 2009 (UTC)
 * It would be great if you put it next to undo/revert, and even better if it appeared on Special:RecentChanges. 20:58, 3 July 2009 (UTC)

Bot st00f
I'm at the part of the code where I need to getArticle and editArticle but after looking at the source code for hiscores.php I'm not really sure how to go about it. I'm pretty sure I remember you saying to use str_replace, but where would I put that? 22:15, 3 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Ok, thanks again for all of your help!  03:50, 4 July 2009 (UTC)

RE: New Logging Option
Thanks, I added it. 13:08, 4 July 2009 (UTC)

FluffyBunnyBot source code
It's available here. Would you mind taking a look to make sure everything looks OK before I request the bot flag? After that I'm going to need to know how to get the bot up and running with the code. Thanks again! 17:54, 4 July 2009 (UTC)

Hi there!
Please can you help me with a bot i am going to make...

I want it to remove red links from pages and when needed, add a speedy deletion to pages that are useless.

Please can you make the source code and tell me what to do then because i am new to making bots.

Thanks,

18:05, 4 July 2009 (UTC)
 * I will get him the framework, don't worry about it Quarenon. ^^ 18:07, 4 July 2009 (UTC)

Thanks, soldier! 18:08, 4 July 2009 (UTC)

I tryed to do what soldier said for me to do but it didnt work so he said to speak to you, please can you make the source code for the bot?

I want the bot to find redlinks and remove or replace them and the bot's name is redlinkfixer. oh and, please put in the password place: Dont try to be cheeky! I dont want to tell you the password!

Thanks,

18:25, 4 July 2009 (UTC)

New source code ;D
If that looks OK I'll just need to know how to get the bot up and running so I can test it. Thanks again for all of your help! 05:53, 5 July 2009 (UTC)
 * OK, thanks again. Supertech1 is helping me get everything set up since it seems to be a bit harder to get everything going on a Mac.... 18:34, 5 July 2009 (UTC)
 * That's OK, the bot will be up and running sooner or later. :P Thanks one last time for everything you've helped with.  18:42, 5 July 2009 (UTC)

Some wiki code that might help you
Just a heads up. 18:29, 5 July 2009 (UTC)

Bot?
I just wanted to ask you for help on making a bot. It would be called SnackBot, to accompany SmackBot, to revert incorrect GEMW updates (i.e. old price wasn't changed but new one was, date of price update is in the future, etc.). I've never done JavaScript before, so I might need a littleLOT, really help. 20:28, 5 July 2009 (UTC)


 * I think I already made the bot acc. =/ Well, I have my sig for it at Signatures/SnackBot, but when I try to include it, I get Template:Signatures/SnackBot . Help? [[Image:Chocolate chip crunchies.PNG|Put the Snack in SnackBot!]]SnackBot[[Image:Wizard Blizzard.PNG|Put the Snack in SnackBot!]]


 * Oh, darn. I never look at what I need to, just the less important things. I'm not sure exactly what I'm going to do when I request the bot flag. Can I have some sort of example? 21:24, 5 July 2009 (UTC)


 * Hope this works... 21:55, 5 July 2009 (UTC)


 * Hey, could you add SnackBot to your bots page? I'm going to need a lot of help from you, and I think we would work well together. (IMO, of course) 23:20, 5 July 2009 (UTC)

Code
Can you please make a bot that removes redlinks (deleted or never created) and can you make it so that it checks the redlink first before removing.

If you need more details, contact me on my talk page found in my signature.

07:19, 6 July 2009 (UTC)

I just made a topic about this, please can you read it here

07:26, 6 July 2009 (UTC)

K,Thanks.

06:17, 7 July 2009 (UTC)

Recent Changes Rollback
It's not doing anything for me. :( 23:18, 6 July 2009 (UTC)


 * The links do not show up, and I am running Safari on Mac OS X Leopard. 23:28, 6 July 2009 (UTC)


 * Force refresh? Must I quote the note?


 * Note: After saving, you have to bypass your browser's cache to see the changes.


 * Internet Explorer: hold down the Ctrl key and click the Refresh or Reload button, or press Ctrl+F5.
 * Firefox: hold down the Shift key while clicking Reload; alternatively press Ctrl+F5 or Ctrl-Shift-R.
 * Opera users have to clear their caches through Tools→Preferences
 * Konqueror and Safari users can just click the Reload button.
 * Chrome: press Ctrl+F5 or Shift+F5


 * I think I had enough sense to press the refresh button. And I have no idea what AJAX even is. 23:38, 6 July 2009 (UTC)


 * Apparently you didn't understand that it was unchecked. 01:44, 7 July 2009 (UTC)


 * By "paste", do you mean copy them and give them to you? 11:23, 7 July 2009 (UTC)


 * Something tells me this won't do you much good. 22:52, 7 July 2009 (UTC)


 * Now it appears to be working. :S 23:44, 8 July 2009 (UTC)

High Scores bot
I noticed that you have a thread in Website feedback about your Highscores bot. I think that you will get a response by a Jagex Mod quicker if you request for the thread to be moved to the Jagex Lite forum. The thread was meant to be in in the first place. In the forum specific rules for Website feedback, it says:

Most threads have a J mod post on them within 24 hours of appearing in that forum 06:44, 7 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Sorry about that. I must have interpreted the rules the wrong way. Good luck with your Yew Grove suggestion. 06:01, 8 July 2009 (UTC)

New script idea
Wouldn't it be a good idea to make a script to alert you when a page is edited (as a usermessage)? 11:34, 8 July 2009 (UTC)


 * Could you please direct me to where the script for Auto CVU is? It's not anywhere... 22:08, 8 July 2009 (UTC)


 * It looks like you "borked" your spelling too. P.S. try to get a page history/recent changes-based version. 22:19, 8 July 2009 (UTC)

RE:Bot Test
I've been having some Mac compatibility issues so Supertech1 is helping me out. He's been rather busy lately so hopefully we will get it all set up soon. 02:01, 9 July 2009 (UTC)
 * By the way, I took your advice and changed "AJAX" to "RC AUTOREFRESH" to make sure everyone understands what the checkbox means. Thanks. ^^ 02:15, 9 July 2009 (UTC)

Thanks!
Hi, I would just like to thank your for your Scripts page. I love those scripts! 19:27, 9 July 2009 (UTC)

CVU script
Can you please check User:Powers38/monaco.js for me? I added the cvu script and passed by cache and it still won't show the report sign or am I missing something? Do you think I need to clear it the cache? 13:18, 11 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Hey thanks! It works now! You sure know a lot about scripts and computers and what not! 14:18, 11 July 2009 (UTC)

RE:
I changed it and made a test run with the bot, but as you can see from its contributions it blanks everything. :s 23:10, 11 July 2009 (UTC)

$page = $bot->getArticle($title); sleep(15);

$text = $page; $text = preg_replace('#(.*?) #gi', '$2 ', $text); $text = preg_replace('#(.*?) #gi', '$2 ', $text); $text = preg_replace('#(.*?) #gi', '$2 ', $text); $text = preg_replace('#(.*?) #gi', '$2 ', $text); $text = str_replace(' ', ' ', $text); $text = str_replace("", "''", $text); $text = str_replace("", "''", $text); $text = str_replace(' ', ' ', $text); $text = str_replace(' ', ' ', $text); $text = str_replace("", "'''", $text); $text = str_replace("", "'''", $text); $bot->editArticle($title, $text, 'Automated HTML tidying.', true, true); Looks fine to me.. 23:53, 11 July 2009 (UTC)
 * It works. :) Requesting bot flag at Forum:Requesting bot flag for FluffyBunnyBot. 03:01, 12 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Okay, thanks.  15:30, 12 July 2009 (UTC)

Help
Hey there. I understand that you are the scripting person, and I have a request. Is there anyway to get a script that adds a small box at the top of each page that has a list of pages specified by the person? If possible, and of course you want to do it, can you please pass me on the coding for something like this, as I might want to add or remove links later on. Thank you very much. 01:13, 13 July 2009 (UTC)
 * I'll go try that right now. I'll most likely be fine if it turns out good, as I don't use many of the pages on the sidebar. Thanks. 01:43, 13 July 2009 (UTC)

Hiscore thing
Hey, im confused about that auto-update thing. Check User:Kalindrum/Hiscores for me and could you sort it out? Thanks very much. 14:46, 13 July 2009 (UTC)
 * THANK you ALOT. 15:00, 13 July 2009 (UTC)

RE:Contrast in Gaming Skin
I agree. I would recommend bringing it up on the Yew Grove to make sure everyone knows what needs to be done. 20:15, 13 July 2009 (UTC)

Edit toolbar
Right, I have a little query - is there any way to remove the default edit buttons (i.e. these ones) without completely disabling the bar (via preferences). I want to create some custom edit buttons but without the standard buttons since I never use them... any ideas? 21:54, 13 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Seems to be working great. Your smiley toolbar script doesn't seem to work with it though... no worries. If I find anything else I'll let you know. Thanks! 14:27, 14 July 2009 (UTC)

Re: Hiscores thread
I still feel bad about giving you dodgy advice about your thread

While it cheapens the thread, one way to help get his attention again is to put a message at the top of the first post asking where he is. I once did this after Mod Timbo posted on one of my threads, told me to poke holes in his idea, then didn't reply for nearly a month. I got tired of waiting so I added a message asking where Timbo went and 2 days later he appeared again. I am not sure if it is a good way to go about it though. 02:48, 14 July 2009 (UTC)
 * He will probably show up sooner or later. Based on that he asked for someone who probably does something to do with the high scores, he wouldn't go on the forums that often. J mods are reliable, though nearly always very slow to respond.  03:13, 14 July 2009 (UTC)

RE:FBB
Thanks for the suggestions and link to the wikitech suggestion (which I found very interesting ). For now I'm going to let FBB finish replacing all of the oudated HTML and then start combining things. 04:44, 14 July 2009 (UTC)
 * By the way, FBB is about halfway done tidying up Category:Signatures and is working as we speak.  04:45, 14 July 2009 (UTC)
 * 05:24, 14 July 2009 (UTC)

Toolbox
Could you set up an auto-install for an item in the toolbox that says "Hiscores log" and links to your EzHiscores log? I don't like waiting an hour for looking at it, and I don't need more bookmarks. 16:32, 14 July 2009 (UTC)


 * And where is the link?

RE:All pages
So I just change function callAPI to public function callAPI and it will edit all pages? 18:37, 14 July 2009 (UTC)
