SiteMeter
Hi Az, why do we have the sitemeter on the wikia rail? It's sort of in the way and I was under the impression that Quantcast did a better job of getting information. 10:23, December 31, 2010 (UTC)
 * Is there any reason we can't have it at the bottom of the page? It seems like some people will think we're saying "Look how many pageviews we have." If we put it in a less obvious place, wouldn't we get the same information with less hassle? Because we didn't have the sitemeter running for so long, it's not entirely accurate; we have had many more than 123 million page views since March 2009m but because it's been off the pages for a while, that's what it said Also, why have the statistics not been updated for so long?

Thanks,

20:23, December 31, 2010 (UTC)
 * I'm not exactly sure when it stopped working, but I remember it was at 122 million in August. 04:06, January 1, 2011 (UTC)

Yew Grove stuff
In your new system of sorting YG stuff, can you please adapt it to use the parser? Currently last edit dates are showing up as 21:40, December 31, 2010 (UTC), but by using, it'll show up as. I think leaving out the time is nice because that's not especially relevant when going through the archives, and it'll save a bit of precious horizontal space. Though if we simply must have the time, then it'd be, which outputs. OK BYE! 21:40, December 31, 2010 (UTC)
 * P.S. the hours are zero padded, so it would show up as, for example, 05:40, December 31, 2010. If you think it would be best to have non-zero padded hours, change "H" to "G". 21:42, December 31, 2010 (UTC)
 * Yeah. I was thinking of doing that... 02:57, January 1, 2011 (UTC)

You broke something
Forum:Yew Grove, "Next →" doesn't work. 19:27, January 3, 2011 (UTC)

RE: YG stylesheet
MediaWiki:Wikia.css (the new look doesn't take common.css anyway). I checked what it looked like in monobook before I moved it, and it looked really quite bad (in my opinion). If you want to add some appropriate css to monobook.css/common.css with better colours, go for it. 03:35, January 7, 2011 (UTC)
 * New look does since yesterday when "@import "/index.php?title=MediaWiki:Common.css&action=raw&ctype=text/css";" was added to MediaWiki:Wikia.css. 03:39, January 7, 2011 (UTC)

AzBot and Archiving
Hi Azaz, I noticed that you had AzBot update the archive parameters on many old threads. However, I noticed that it had merely removed Archive on three old YG threads without adding anything else, thereby activating those threads again. I rearchived them, but I think you should take a look to see what's going on. The latest two were Forum:WikiGuild:Lumbridge University and Forum:Permanently ban Fruit.Smoothie. Thanks, 03:35, January 7, 2011 (UTC)
 * Whoops, sorry about that Az. I've typed Azaz so many times that I guess I'm used to it now. It's a shame he had to retire.  03:55, January 7, 2011 (UTC)

MediaWiki:Oasis.css
Why not just delete it? 04:10, January 7, 2011 (UTC)
 * So very new, you are.  04:18, January 7, 2011 (UTC)

Re: YG pages
I was initially referring to RuneScape:Community Portal/Sections and my own module User:Ryan PM/Portal/Component/Forums. However the second no longer applies since I was previously forgetting one additional parameter of  seeing as a couple pages appear in the Sticky and Yew Grove categories that shouldn't. Now for the Community Portal, an active discussion category may be needed as dictated by the odd result of "-3 active discussions" on that project page. At the moment it's using the following to calculate active discussions. 0 I'm not great at figuring out the above, but I would have thought an Active thread category would solve this issue if it's not user error on the above calculation. That's all I was pointing at with my previous comment on the thread. Thanks. 17:45, January 8, 2011 (UTC)

Archiving
Um did I archive wrong? I placed your new template over Forum:Reopen the RFRs but it doesn't show up in the archive section. 08:59, January 10, 2011 (UTC)
 * Nvm cook fixed it. New to using your archive thingy. >.> 09:02, January 10, 2011 (UTC)

Broken something?
Forum:Clan Chat appears to be empty to me. 07:02, January 11, 2011 (UTC)


 * Glad to hear it's fixed now. ^^ 02:02, January 13, 2011 (UTC)

RE:You broke the Clan Chat forums
>.< Not that first time I've done that... 01:13, January 12, 2011 (UTC)

!important
Why did you do this? Instead of do that, you could just separate the css for the quest deatils by put what should appear on monobook skin in MediaWiki:Monobook.css and what should appear on wikia skin on MediaWiki:Wikia.css. 01:34, January 22, 2011 (UTC)
 * You didn't edit MediaWiki:Monobook.css... 01:37, January 22, 2011 (UTC)
 * I know what those do. I'm saying you don't need those !important's if you move the background colours from MediaWiki:Common.css to MediaWiki:Monobook.css. 01:46, January 22, 2011 (UTC)
 * fien (I don't even use the wikia skin).  01:47, January 22, 2011 (UTC)

Timers
I closed your Forum:Remove lag-causing timers and counters thread as successful. Please implement the consensus, as I have no idea how to do it without breaking anything. Thanks, 03:22, January 29, 2011 (UTC)
 * The timer for how long ago someone edited still works. Can't we just use .timeago {display:none !important;} for the time being, until Wikia removed it? 19:58, January 29, 2011 (UTC)

File:GEMH Dragon battleaxe.png
Is that normal? I don't see the epic spikes in the RS GEDB... 16:01, January 29, 2011 (UTC)
 * Oh sorry 16:13, January 29, 2011 (UTC)

i know i'm going to forget
to tell you happy birthday on Wednesday/Thurs next month...so... happy 26th birthday :)

How does one create a wiki bot?--Smbzfan2 16:21, February 28, 2011 (UTC)

Main page links
I recall that we made an effort to reduce links on our main page as somehow that messed up our Google ranking or some such thing (I will not even pretend I understand this in the least), and have noticed our events team messages often contain numerous links. Should we reduce this or does it not matter? Thanks, --Degenret01 06:55, March 6, 2011 (UTC)

Disambig
Just wanted to let you know that I like the disambig template with 100% width. I support and I hope it stays! If it does stay this way, I think the banner would look better at the top of disambig pages rather than the bottom. Would that go against an existing policy? Good work =D 01:13, April 15, 2011 (UTC)
 * I don't know of any policies or guidelines either. Perhaps some general/loose/suggestive guidelines should be written regarding the formatting. I've seen like two dozen different formats, but most of them work and look fine. It would just be to set at least some standards for what not to do, and then we throw in two cents about where the template goes. Heehee... who wants to move all the disambig templates to the top? 02:00, April 15, 2011 (UTC)
 * Fantastic! I'm glad you have a bot. I was thinking about a section in RS:SG too, but now that I look at it, I think it should be "RuneScape:Disambiguation style guide" instead (similar to RuneScape:Quest style guide and RuneScape:Store style guide). Let me know if you want help with any of it. 02:29, April 15, 2011 (UTC)
 * I have edited RuneScape:Disambiguation mainly in the page style section. I feel like I rearranged your words quite a bit, so check it out to make sure I have not misinterpreted anything. Also, I couldn't get the automatic numbering to work - perhaps you could fix that. I'm am quite the noob when it comes to wiki stuff and I have never used the YG. I think you should do the proposing. The guide states that the disambig template be located at the bottom of the page because this is the current consensus on style. However, if you do the "proposing," propose the guide as a guide, and separately propose the change in placement of the template. 01:28, April 23, 2011 (UTC)
 * Looks great! You find the best examples. I do however disagree with the use of section headers. I think that bolded titles using a ";" looks much cleaner. It also is currently the most common way on disambiguation pages. 19:20, April 23, 2011 (UTC)

Can I change the the disambig policy to give the following example:
 * 1) * For long lists, use section headers to group the entries:



18:51, April 29, 2011 (UTC)
 * Yeah, not having a TOC was kinda the point. The sections wouldn't be big enough to justify taking the space at the top for a TOC. 21:45, May 1, 2011 (UTC)
 * Ok. Fair enough =D 03:09, May 2, 2011 (UTC)

Sitemeter
Hey azliq, can u help me to put a sitemeter on ym wiki? http://pt-br.rsbr.wikia.com/wiki/MediaWiki:Common.js/sitemeter.js

If you can, I want the same as this wiki. Thanks very much Yugibr1 23:35, April 27, 2011 (UTC)


 * Thanks, but check it, it show the image, but the image don't show the visits. thanks alot Yugibr1
 * Thanks alot bro, now it is working. Thanks aigain Yugibr1

Compressing
Could you please let your bot compress the GEMH/GEMV files before uploading them? I tried compressing the most recent one, and it reduced the filesize to 90%. It would help quite a bit for pageloads of indexes, and a slight bit for all pages with those files on them. I'd say it can't hurt (unless you're too busy of course). Thanks already, 23:48, April 27, 2011 (UTC)
 * I tried compressing File:GEMH Zuriel's staff.png with PNGGauntlet, and it reduced the filesize to 90% of the original size. I tried compressing some more recent files, and they all compressed to something around 90%. That reduction to 12 colors sounds very good though. I was just wondering if you could compress it even more. 14:40, April 28, 2011 (UTC)

PAGES ON THIS WIKI module
Hello, I noticed the sitemeter on the right sidebar and I was wondering:
 * 1) What HTML/JS/CSS coding did you use to edit that?
 * 2) How did you make it like that?
 * 3) Did you use a template?
 * 4) What MediaWiki program did you use?
 * 5) How did you get PAGEVIEWS SINCE JANUARY 2011 on there?

Thanks for being helpful Leave message on my talk page --Andromeda Vadum 14:22, May 4, 2011 (UTC)

Creating a bot
Hey, a few days ago Forum:Filenames was closed with the consensus to have all files named like it is said on RS:IMG. Because this would take very long for humans to do, and a bot could do it much faster, I would like to ask you if you could program a bot for this purpose. I can understand it is too hard to make the bot move animations to be named like the action it's doing, or scenery like what it's showing, but it would be nice if the bot could move things like item inventory/detail images, or monster body/chathead images. If you got time to program the bot, that would be great. Thanks in advance, 20:44, May 14, 2011 (UTC)
 * Currently the filenames are all different for a lot of files, but they are in certain categories. If you could rename the files in Category:Detailed item images, Category:Item inventory images, Category:Monster images and Category:Non-player character images, Category:Chat head images, Category:Equipment images and Category:Construction images to the filename it should be for RS:IMG, that would be great. If you need categories where only, for example, full body shots of monsters are listed, so that you can find the file easier, you should just ask me, because splitting some of those categories probably also makes things clearer anyway. If you need any help for me doing something like AWBing things, you could always ask me, I want to help as much as I can with this. 17:51, May 17, 2011 (UTC)
 * Hey there. I saw Forum:Filenames and I was planning to do that, if you aren't going to. Can you leave me a message on my talk page? Thanks. — KolakCC (talk) 15:49, May 21, 2011 (UTC)
