RE:FIMG
Hmm, should we give it awhile to see how the nomination goes? Or just revert it? You choose, it's your nomination ^_^

Prffdinas
(sorry if I spelt it wrong) Well, I thought that requiem's version was straighter and nicer, and some of the comments said they preferred that version. Sorry that I didn't say or anything, I was in a hurry and had to go. Revert it to your version if you prefer that, I don't mind.-- 15:05, 6 July 2009 (UTC)

FIMG nomination for "Lesser reborn ranger"
Could you provide a link to where the nomination was withdrawn, or provide an explanation as to how the nomination was withdrawn? 11:48, 5 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Okay, thanks. 11:52, 5 July 2009 (UTC)

Hey I want to let u know something Caleb.
Hello, recently I've checked what you have said which means stuff like your characteristics. I'm also a Christian and i don't swear and things you already know. You seem like a person just like me, and i will ask you if u will add me on rs so i can get to know you. My name is Mega Cute67 on the game.




 * Sure. I'll add you to my Friends list, I won't get on anytime soon though (as I'm signing off for the night). 15:52, 5 July 2009 (UTC)

Oops
Oh, sorry. I was checking recent changes and checked out the Demon page. I saw that Nightgunner removed something that looked like vandalism to me, and the last person to edit that page was 76.226.135.229. I thought that they were the one who added that. Sorry. 12:41, 7 July 2009 (UTC)

Re: Oneiromancer
Nice try...


 * Just as a NECRO-mancer draws their power from the energy the dead, and the CULINARO-mancer draws his power from the energy of food, the ONEIRO-mancer draws her power from the energy of dreams...
 * Inaccruate, and not worded appropriately. There's really no need to shout. (-mancy is divination, seeing the future; -mancer is thus one who sees the future.)
 * ...so that a member of the Fremennik tribe may understand what it is to be a member of the Moon Clan...
 * Most people don't pay attention to quests. This line assumes the reader already knows he's Fremennik.
 * ...the Oneiromancer suggests that the player helps him by entering his dreams...
 * Okay, it didn't copy, but it links to Dream Mentor. It's already linked to in the subtitle. Plus, it should be explained that you do it in Dream Mentor. "During the Dream Mentor quest, the Oneiromancer suggests that the player helps..."

Apart from that, there's the occasional inappriate word ("Incredibly", for example) and no mention is made of a few key facts - she'll kick you off Lunar Isle if you try talking to her without a Seal of Passage, for example.

It's a small list, thus, not a bad article.. B+. You avoid detention. JalYt-Xil-Vimescarrot 18:08, 7 July 2009 (UTC)

Please be consistent.
Hi - thank you for the edits to the God bird page; I was unaware there is a Wiki capitalization policy and would appreciate a link.

However, given your status I was rather surprised at your inconsistency and lack of follow through in your corrections. If you only clean up half an article and not search for further examples, it's not the most helpful contribution to the rest of us. I'd much rather spend my time continuing to create new articles and overhauling ones in bad need of it rather than chasing down someone's unfinished efforts. Farmyboy 18:02, 9 July 2009 (UTC)


 * Perhaps you were 'multitasking' again when you wrote your response, since I appear to have touched a nerve or two and yet you still haven't addressed what I brought up.


 * I politely requested a link to any policy on this Wikipedia that stated a capitalization policy and in turn you told me that I was 'reprimanding' you. You seem to have done an innumerable amount of redirects and edits in accordance with one, yet your 'minor edit' did so only halfway, leaving myself (and I presume others who you've done this to) confused, not to mention spending our own time cleaning up articles in accordance with an editing rule that doesn't seem to be readily available.  Thus, I was wondering exactly what the policy was, or if this falls under what you define as a long series of 'voluntary' edits.  If it's the latter, I'd be quite happy to open up an RFD and work with you and others on formalizing something, although I suspect we'd be at wildly differing viewpoints on its importance and consistency.


 * Either way I do hope you find time to write more content sometime soon, since contributing all of a single stub article as your sole new content article contribution of 2009 does tend to remove administrators from the concerns of those who spend hours coming up with content, capturing pictures, finding pricing, and other things that actually draw people to this wiki. I have no problems with those who are editors rather than contributors on any wiki - we all volunteer in our own way - but I do think Jimmy Wales got it right when one of his five principles early on was that perfection wasn't required because endless editing serves no one, but new content serves all.  Farmyboy 08:06, 10 July 2009 (UTC)


 * Thank you for finally responding to my request.


 * I will be quite happy to open a RFD/VFD (or whatever you call it here) to help come up with a MoS that is supported by something like Strunk & White or the Chicago Manual of Style rather than someone's opinion being supported by "common sense," since that part is not an "extremely trivial" matter whatsoever. Perhaps you haven't had a chance in your primary schooling to read either yet, but Wikipedia wisely came up with their MoS (based largely on those two classics) a few years back to precisely prevent the plethora of inconsistent edits you've seemed to prioritize over content adds.  1000000 differing views of "common sense" style rules tend to waste everyone's time since it creates incomprehensible, defensive responses by those confident their on their own opinion of style is "right" with no need for consensus to back it up.


 * It may be a while before I do that, however, since in what limited time I have here I have a number of long-overdue, half written articles that need to come first, along with any number of screen captures that need to be edited for content. Unfortunately, I've been delayed in finishing them as I've run across far too many articles that have content that's just outright wrong; spending hour after hour looking for style changes when there are so many articles in bad need of correction just doesn't seem like a good use of time to me, since bots can do that just as well.  I suppose we differ in our opinions on that too.


 * But you're right - my time could have much better been spent elsewhere instead of pointing out that repeated, inconsistent style changes that aren't supported by a formal MoS don't help anyone. Of course, had you responded with a more appropriate answer to my question with a link to the semi-skeleton style guide, it would have answered my confusion without this discussion, since as it turns out it does directly addresses capitalization of titles in the style you refer to, just like British spelling is used over American.


 * However, I do hope that if you can spend some time rereading that link, as not only was your answer to me incorrect - there is in fact a Wiki policy - but it might actually help you aim towards consistency in your continued efforts to perfect articles until such time as the community can have a more formal discussion on the matter of coming up with a more robust MoS that everyone can refer to instead of relying on their own personal opinions. Have a wonderful day, and I do hope you can find the "chance" to contribute content sometime soon in between all your style edits.  Farmyboy 09:33, 10 July 2009 (UTC)

Weee
I'm back, hope you didn't miss me too much. :P 06:17, 10 July 2009 (UTC)
 * It was for reals. I would have said I needed to get my keyboard fixed if I really was getting it fixed. >.< 06:22, 10 July 2009 (UTC)

Your Userpage
This is your userpage with 640x480 resolution on Google Chrome, is that what it looks like on your laptop? -- 06:26, 10 July 2009 (UTC)

Wiki apostrophe
I don't see the difference.=| What's the wiki apostrophe and what is the difference with the current ones? 08:01, 10 July 2009 (UTC)

Congrats
Good job on being UOTM!! Youdead00 17:47, 10 July 2009 (UTC)

Interview
Hey, since you are UOTM, I was wondering if you wanted to be interviewed for the RuneScape Wiki Post. If you just said yes, here are the questions. Just show me your answers on my talk.

Why did you join the Runescape Wiki, Calebchiam?

What do you think of what Jagex did in December 10?

When did you join the RuneScape wiki?

What do you think is the greatest update for RuneScape?

What is your greatest contribution to the RuneScape Wiki?

Do you think free players should have more features?

Do you think that being a member is worth it?

How do you feel about being User of the month?

Youdead00 20:53, 10 July 2009 (UTC)

why?
why did you delete the pictures of me and mod paul? what rules does that break? theres a pic of you with someone famous on ure profile!

Bye
Caleb, I’m retiring. I thought I’d tell you since you have been the most helpful to me, like pointing me in the right direction and stuff. Thanks for all the help you’ve given. For a full explanation of why I’ve retired, check out my user page. There’s also a link to my wiki about poo that me and my mates made as a joke ,lol. You can message me on it should you have any questions. Good luck with getting 99 Firemaking. Goodbye!

My wiki has been closed down, this is the last contact we will have for some time. Our little April Fools joke kinda got us in trouble... I might return to this wiki after all, but I won't be continuing to play RuneScape. If I decide to leave for good, tell one of the 'crats to remove my rollback rights. But, for now, keep them.

HI
It's pokj47 :), ty for a enjoying read on your profile :) Hope your woodcutting and firemaking goes all the well.

Re:FriendyBot?
If you haven't noticed already, I want bots, bots and more bots. So yes. 23:23, 12 July 2009 (UTC)


 * How about AntiAbuseBot for RuneScape Wiki? :S 11:30, 13 July 2009 (UTC)


 * I could make it report people who blank pages, or replace pages with less than 1,000 bytes (only in the mainspace and RuneScape namespace). Your thoughts before I start another stupid idea? 11:50, 13 July 2009 (UTC)


 * Lawl, I'm too tired to know what to say *thinks of new bot*  22:38, 14 July 2009 (UTC)

Good Point
Makes good sense about the IP regarding the intro as unnecessary. It's been a while since I've been on the Wiki, so I'm having to get back in the swing of things. I hope I didn't cause any problems reporting the IP as a vandal. -- JalYt-Xil-BicycleCat user 07:02, 14 July 2009 (UTC)

RE:RE:Good Point
Thanks for welcoming me back! It's nice to see that the Wiki's still a friendly community to be part of. I hope to do my best to help out around the Wiki now that I've returned. -- JalYt-Xil-BicycleCat user 07:12, 14 July 2009 (UTC)

Your talk page
Was vandalized! :O 03:03, 17 July 2009 (UTC)
 * The talk page stalker is glad he can help. And its up to you to protect it. Maybe you should not protect it yet since it was only a first time. 06:02, 17 July 2009 (UTC)

You split the topic in two. Christine answered to one while Mo 55 55 answered the other one. 12:01, 17 July 2009 (UTC)

Orphan pages/files
Do you monitor Special:LonelyPages and Special:UnusedImages? If you do, could you comment on Forum:Orphanage? Thanks. 10:05, 18 July 2009 (UTC)

Re:Rswfan
I have left Rswfan a message on his talk page. While I have not removed the tool, I have given him a formal warning about future use of rollback. Thank you for letting me know, and please contact me again if Rswfan continues to misuse his privileges. Dtm142 22:48, 18 July 2009 (UTC)

RE: Redlink
It's deleted now, good you noticed. 12:39, 20 July 2009 (UTC)

oldhp
What harm does it do? I just thought it would be a good idea to make a separate template for the old hitpoints bar. You can feel free to delete it if you think it needs consensus. 11:08, 22 July 2009 (UTC)


 * Ok, just tell other sysops not to delete it or Category:Old combat images just because they are unused unless consensus is to delete. Thanks for clarifying, I don't really think about these things at night. 11:14, 22 July 2009 (UTC)


 * Sorry, I didn't realise that consensus hasn't been reached yet. Really really sorry. -- 11:19, 22 July 2009 (UTC)


 * No response... What now? 23:21, 25 July 2009 (UTC)


 * OK then. 12:31, 26 July 2009 (UTC)


 * 11 days. 2 supports. 1 comment. This is getting a little annoying. 20:31, 2 August 2009 (UTC)

The curse of arrav
When you deleted The Curse of Arrav, you made a red link in the front page. I don't know how to fix it, so..can you fix it please? 14:45, 22 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Er....It got fixed when I was typing this to you. :| . 14:51, 22 July 2009 (UTC)

WGS
So I finally got 270 QP and used boosts to start WGS (Yes!! I don't have to use money on seedssss thank God! *Ignore that :)*) and I was wondering, do you have any tips for me? I tend to overestimate bosses and kill them real easily. With my stats, will I have difficult times during any part of the quest? 06:44, 26 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Yea..I finished it also, I am about to duo torm demons with Syu. 12:58, 27 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Lol, I know. It was surprising for me also to find out that he plays everyday and does not edit this wiki much anymore! >.< 13:13, 27 July 2009 (UTC)

Talk page stalking
Lol, I guess I'm not the only one who is talk page stalking. 05:05, 30 July 2009 (UTC)

Opinion plz...
When my Zezima conspiracy story was half completed, you read it and said that some parts didn't make sense. I have finished writing it/submitted it and I was hoping you could tell me if it makes more sense now (it is here). I still have time to fix sections before it becomes August. 07:44, 31 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Huzzah!! Thanks for that. 07:53, 31 July 2009 (UTC)

Delete this page plz

RE: Conflict
Thanks for commenting on my talk, that was ment to other yours, not you. Some wikians that are not familiar with reverting may revert that image and it could start off a conflict. You however understand which is good. Hope no feelings were hurt. P.S Just had a very very very hot chilli. 18:35, 1 August 2009 (UTC)
 * In featured images, do you need to wait one week for the nomination to reach a final choice or you can do it whenever you want because at the moment its got 7 nominations up. 09:44, 4 August 2009 (UTC)

Could you replace this image (File:Category sword.png) With this one:

A few Questions (._.')
Ahoy Caleb, Just 3 questions for you, You see on ElfAnurin's page, at the bottom on his Wallpaper section, how did he manange to make the Imageshack link into a smaller thumbnail? How do I make Userboxes, and could you change the text in my signature to: My Name, then next to it Beauty, not Vanity (with this link: http://runescape.wikia.com/wiki/User:Requiem1160/BnV) and get rid of Talk, Snapshots and GIFs?

Thanks Caleb ^_^

Archive
I hope you don't mink but I played around with your archive code to make mine. 08:43, 6 August 2009 (UTC)
 * I realise that they are free, I just felt that I should tell you anyway. I chose yours out of about 5 archive boxes that I looked at.  11:27, 6 August 2009 (UTC)
 * It takes the same amount of time to redirect that as it would have to fix the link (if it had not been fixed yet). It is only 2 steps away from the actual name. Also, powers job is to be the first person to post on archived talk pages. 12:03, 6 August 2009 (UTC)
 * It isn't important, though I will try to explain it anyway. It might take 20 seconds to find the link on the page and change it to where it was meant to go. At the same time, in about 20 seconds, I could click on the red link and redirect the page to where it was meant to go forever forever achieving the same result and in the off chance that someone types that in again, it will go to the proper page. This might seem strange but before I did the quest I thought that it was called "morning's end". 12:17, 6 August 2009 (UTC)
 * I see where you are also coming from and you are probably right. The next time that I notice that I will fix the link then redirect if it is not obvious. There is a lot of work possible if someone goes and fixes every commonly mis-spelt link. Garden of Tranquillity is called Garden of Tranquility a lot  06:20, 7 August 2009 (UTC)

HELP!!! (is this the wiki or me?)
Hi

When I try to edit a whole page of the wiki, I get a message asking me if I want to download or open index.php. If i select open, firefox downloads the file and asks me again (grr...). Why is this? Is it my PC or the wiki? When will it be fixed? How can I fix it? Thanks (I think?)(wait, I think! I didn't know that!)

17:02, 7 August 2009 (UTC)

FIXED - have removed the image - thanks 78.146.207.114 17:16, 7 August 2009 (UTC)
