User talk:Evil yanks

Forum
Yeah! I made my first RS forum post, I'm catching up with you! only another like, 27900 27564 odd left to go. 03:10, November 15, 2009 (UTC)
 * Hehe, that stops archive spammers as well. 13:39, November 15, 2009 (UTC)

Jatizso
About Jatizso and your reverting of my edit; If you read the article and then what I wrote, no, the other section does not say what I wrote. In fact, it goes on about a lot of obscure references to Dutch and Norwegian versions of the words, whereas I pointed out that it likely simply is a reference to the English expressions of "yah" and "nay", to mirror the IMO far better description at Neitiznot, which the article in no way mentions previously. See Talk:Jatizso. --85.81.86.44 07:23, November 16, 2009 (UTC)

Shooting Star
You placed that landmark tag on every single image there. 05:36, November 17, 2009 (UTC)
 * So would the first version of File:FremProvStar.png be what is expected for the in-game view? 09:29, November 17, 2009 (UTC)
 * Ok, Ill expand those images later. Someone told me that they had to be cropped and placed a cropping tag on it. I just didn't want it to be deleted. 15:51, November 17, 2009 (UTC)
 * Is there a tag thing for renaming files? 23:55, November 18, 2009 (UTC)
 * I think the replacement of the in-game image with a link is a retrograde move, if you want an HD image available surely you could keep the smaller image in place but keep a link to the larger file?--Marzinnia 08:16, December 5, 2009 (UTC)

Re: Wilderness Runite Mine
Yes, that's where I saw the "Duplicate Article" as both directed to the same page with the same information. Sorry if it was considered False-Labeling. -- 07:31, November 17, 2009 (UTC)

Re:Username limit
Rofl. I've never heard of a username limit for Wikis though. Unfortunately. 07:32, November 17, 2009 (UTC)

In game views of stars
Scanning down the list most of them don't really help out at all. Considering how much they add to the page (size) I would like to remove them to make it more efficient, but its kinda your baby and don't want to step on your toes. The map pics do a fine job of telling people where to look.--Degenret01 07:44, November 19, 2009 (UTC)
 * Even if they were better they wouldnt add much that the map pic doesnt have. And for my weird edit, I wondered where the word "typo" went to, was supposed to be in summary lol.--Degenret01 09:43, November 19, 2009 (UTC)
 * Thanks. Since it was something that would take more than 3 saves and several test edits for me I was waiting till I can edit from home. I'm too spoiled by real comps to enjoy a lot of editing from this work comp that takes 30 secs per page.

Hmm
I guess.. It wasn't really my intention to flame the guy. But I'll keep my remarks about vandals to myself.

Nah, it's not to early; Another month tomorrow. 10:20, November 24, 2009 (UTC)

Re:Returned the favour
I was just about to leave a message saying you could block him, but I noticed you already had done so. Fast work. 07:53, November 26, 2009 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I know. But I was wondering, why didn't you block User:Sirnot1? I saw what he did, and it was a bit of vandalism, and he's been blocked for it before. 07:59, November 26, 2009 (UTC)

Are you....
Are you from New York? -- 01:04, November 29, 2009 (UTC)
 * I bet he says cuz of the Yanks in your name.--Degenret01 01:14, November 29, 2009 (UTC)
 * Degenret got it!!! -- 01:26, November 29, 2009 (UTC)

Re:Mines
It's fine, but maybe you could add a location for unclear mines? Some of the images are basically useless for locating, like this. Also, is there any way to auto-hide the mine navbox? It is pretty large, although, like you said, the infobox does help. 02:49, November 29, 2009 (UTC)
 * Uhh, something else. Do you think Exchange:Mint cake should be semi-protected? A lot of ips have been vandalizing it, almost daily. For some reason, it seems to be a big target for vandals. 02:53, November 29, 2009 (UTC)
 * I don't mean how to get there, just a little more specific location, like 'Northeast Tzhaar'. In some infoboxes, stuff you don't have can be deleted, and won't show up. I suggest something like that for mines without a good location image, or maybe all mines. 03:13, November 29, 2009 (UTC)
 * No wait, it can't be done. Our Template:Navbox doesn't have the necessary features to make it collapsed. (I looked on Wikipedia:Template:Navbox) 03:41, November 29, 2009 (UTC)

Hey, what are you doing with the mine template? I saw an edit summary that I did not understand: (Aha! If I like to where I will create the pages in the future, then I wont have to change the links). What does this refer too? 05:15, December 1, 2009 (UTC)
 * One question: I'm going to update Template:Mining, and I was wondering, should I make the main link link to the rock, or the ore? Like Iron rock (ore) or Iron ore (rock) . 05:29, December 1, 2009 (UTC)
 * Two things: is the size of the pictures good for you or would you like them bigger/smaller? Also, we don't have most of the rock/vein pictures. Oh yeah, also, when making the pages for Daeyalt and Rubium, they should be veins, not rocks. 06:14, December 1, 2009 (UTC)

I say Adamantite rock, for consistency. But make Adamant rock a redirect page, so it'll be easy to find. 09:50, December 2, 2009 (UTC)
 * You know what I meant.  10:00, December 2, 2009 (UTC)


 * Don't forget about Mithrite! Its the formal name that's never used in the game! Anyways, Rwojy said you were making the pages, so you would be the one to show these to:


 * Far be it from me to brag, but I'm really happy with the way they turned out >_> 05:05, December 3, 2009 (UTC)
 * Wasn't 100% sure what you meant. The word "Mithrite" never appears in the game, but they used the word in Postbag 41:

"Adamantite is the name of the ore - like mithrite, blurite and runite - whereas the name of the metal is adamant. For simplicity's sake, let us also assume that dragon metal is made using dragonite ore (although it may be an alloy or composite of other known or unknown metal(s))."

- Thurgo


 * 05:21, December 3, 2009 (UTC)
 * Ah I see! They also call it Adamantite bar, Adamantite limbs, and Adamantite nails, which is against their own naming conventions. They are silly. 05:26, December 3, 2009 (UTC)
 * It makes sense though, and I think that's how they should do it in the game. Hopefully they will one day! 05:35, December 3, 2009 (UTC)
 * Forgot blurite! 23:38, December 3, 2009 (UTC)

Little lone
The expression is "let alone" Homophones ftl. 05:22, November 30, 2009 (UTC)

RE: Categories
I highly doubt that would be ever be a special page called "Pages with the least categories". Since the MediaWiki hard limit is 1000 pages, theoretically, all pages in that special page would at least have 1 category... unless the total number of pages in that wiki is less than 1,000. (Pages with zero categories goes into the "Uncategorised pages" list.) So the "Pages with the least categories" special page would not be that useful. Anyway, why would you need such a page? 11:44, November 30, 2009 (UTC)

UotM vote
Thank you, Evil yanks, for voting for me for UotM. I feel extremely honored. 14:51, December 1, 2009 (UTC)

I cant find anything anymore
Can you link me to where the intro paragraphs are for the featured articles? The one on Fally needs a bit of work. Ever since we mirrored the main page and made it rotating I am lost as heck. On another note, don't be discouraged if an idea of yours doesn't pan out. Your an awesome contributor to the wiki. You make us better.--Degenret01 06:19, December 3, 2009 (UTC)
 * It didn't appear hostile to me. Honestly. Maybe a bit silly but not harsh or anything. And I don't think you argue unreasonably, just passionately. Nothing wrong with caring about your work here. Many people agreed with your Location deletion nom, and I think sailing as an article is ridiculous but just didn't care enough to get involved. Take a couple weeks off the YG if you feel you must, but don't stay away. Often opposite idea and opinions result in something better coming to light. Did you see how not a single person agreed with me on not tagging sd pics? no biggie. And I once was the sole opposer of an RFA for some one that turned out to be real good. Let your past mistakes go Evil (and I wouldn't even call them mistakes really). Its' how we move ahead.--Degenret01 06:47, December 3, 2009 (UTC)

Re:Fancy Dang-fangled new calculators
I'll look into it, I bet Wikia forgot my request again... Since it is already approved it should be activated next week hopefully. - 15:42, December 5, 2009 (UTC)
 * I've sent in a reminder to them and a new version, which fixes a few bugs, bumps to version 1.0, removes a feature that never worked and updates to the current Hiscores Lite URL. - 16:56, December 5, 2009 (UTC)

Do I get a trophy :3?
Well at least I'm done for now I plan on adding the hiscores images such as this lonely 1/24, to another category after my break. First I've gotta upload the other 23 though Work Work Work! 10:19, December 6, 2009 (UTC)
 * Rofl, I know, I can't refresh the page one time without a new message ! Kinda hard to work too, :| heh. 10:40, December 6, 2009 (UTC)


 * Omgz u evil, I call da polees on u! 10:44, December 6, 2009 (UTC)

User page template treasure trails thingy
Don't worry, I had already put it up for speedy deletion and within about 30 seconds, Psycho Robot had deleted it :) Laurencio2 10:54, December 6, 2009 (UTC)

Re:Woah!
Sorta, Rwojy and you did a lot too, so it wasn't the full 500. Did take a long time though  08:58, December 7, 2009 (UTC)

Re:Relekka Mine
I have to tell the truth and say I was 80% sure there were no requirements. But now I think about it, there is hardly anything you can do in Relekka without finishing that quest, and it does kind of infer there are requirements when there is a gate around it. I'll try and find out later, maybe we should change it back for now. Cheers, 10:27, December 7, 2009 (UTC)

Re:Not vandalism
I believe it was,. because from what I know, the only way to get a dragon spear is a drop from monsters, or buying it from someone else/on ge. Anyway, I didn't see anything on the page that said the store price would be 400k. Also, there isn't any dragon weapon, except for the hatchet and 2hander, that goes for more than 200k. 04:24, December 8, 2009 (UTC)

Oh noes. 10:12, December 8, 2009 (UTC)

that mine
Sorry, I really didn't have the foggiest it was there. I sort of got to thinking if a star doesn't land there it isn't a mine lol. Maybe Khazard west?--Degenret01 10:13, December 8, 2009 (UTC)
 * It does seem slightly awkward, but it is descriptive. Hmm, could we take a minipoll of people who have actually mined there? Add a link to a poll from the page or something? I know its not how we normally do things but it might help in this case since there isn't an in-game name.--Degenret01 10:48, December 8, 2009 (UTC)
 * You should always feel free to ask peoples opinions here, and that goes for me doubled. I would love to see a standard convention for names as it would greatly help us out. Might even be worth a YG thread although you don't want to go there, how about the talk page of mining? So more people can see it and participate.--Degenret01 11:42, December 8, 2009 (UTC)

Featured Article Touch-Up
Hey Yanks. A few days ago you asked me if I was interested in editing the featured article blerbs (is that how you spell it?) that appear on the front page. I've gone ahead and touched-up a couple of them, hopefully for the better. I'm glad to see you think I'm up for it; I actually never knew how to edit those things before now. See you around =) 02:12, December 10, 2009 (UTC)

Undo without summary
The thread you started, Forum:Undo without summary = Rollback??, has gone for nearly two months without even a comment, and the whole time without a significant objection. I have decided to close the discussion, and "rule" that the consensus is approval of the philosophy/concept on this wiki. I just don't know exactly where to put that in terms of a policy guide that would not be buried in the Yew Grove archives. If you have an idea for where to add that sort of feature to this wiki, feel free to place such a suggestion wherever you seem it would fit.

Thanks for suggesting this concept, and I do think it would be some good advise for users new to the concept of using the rollback feature when they get it. --Robert Horning 16:48, December 10, 2009 (UTC)

Rolled-back
I'm 80% sure of it... but I don't really care about it that much, so you can change it back. Or we could ask someone else  06:15, December 11, 2009 (UTC)

 * I did a test edit here, but I really think that the whole page should be split up into separate pages, just like all the updates have their own pages. Any agreement there? 03:07, December 12, 2009 (UTC)
