Items kept on death.
That sounds like a good idea. Imagine a calculator where you enter in some item names and it shows the items that you would keep and loose. You should probably talk to User:Azliq7 about it since she would know how you would go about implimenting it. 05:02, December 16, 2009 (UTC)


 * Hmm... it is a good idea. And the parameter can remain hidden unless the value is entered. Do you want to start collecting the data? If not, why don't you propose a WikiGuild at the Yew Grove?
 * I think you should ask User:Gaz Lloyd and User:Catcrewser for the "death value" calculator, or simply post your idea at Forum:Java calculators.


 * Thanks. 07:00, December 17, 2009 (UTC)


 * I've created Category:Untradeable items. This category is currently empty, but it will be filled soon (in a day or two) with a list of untradeable items that you wanted. 06:17, December 21, 2009 (UTC)


 * Hmm... first, let's compile a list of items with different "death" values. Then, we'll decide whether to include this into the Item infobox. I want to know how many items require this information... If only a handful of items have different "death" values, it would be pointless to create a new parameter for it. We should probably just include the information in the article. 06:35, December 21, 2009 (UTC)


 * Undo-ing my edit made it impossible for me to spot which items were added into the category. Give me an example?  09:42, December 21, 2009 (UTC)


 * You reverted my edit because of that one item? The problem was at the infobox in the article, not at the template itself. I've fixed it, but a few untradeable items may be excluded from the category if the article still used the old parameter "tradable" instead of "tradeable".  10:12, December 21, 2009 (UTC)

My bad. I'm on a different laptop than the one I usually use, and... it's hard to explain, but the (prev) pages are confusing to read on this laptop. Eh, I'll just stay away from reverting vandalism right now. 04:06, January 3, 2010 (UTC)

 * I am not sure if M unit162 was trying to vandalise the wiki with that page on Gertjaars. Warning him for vandalism seems like a bit too much imo. 07:12, January 3, 2010 (UTC)

Re: Special:Contributions/67.142.163.37
It looked A LOT like blanking when i looked at the history, but alright 19:16, January 3, 2010 (UTC)

Oh, I thought warnings were admin only 22:44, January 3, 2010 (UTC)

I didn't, just didn't get the message copied yet 23:28, January 6, 2010 (UTC)

Ok, because I don't know where to put quar.'s code; thanks -- 23:34, January 6, 2010 (UTC)

0.0 I'm not sure; how do I find out? 23:38, January 6, 2010 (UTC)

Ok, thanks for installing it, I refreshed the cache, now next to edits, there is a report button. Also, when editing user talks, there is a drop menu; which item is a warning? 00:38, January 7, 2010 (UTC)

misinformation
Well, its all about my anti-vandalism tactics. By phrasing it in such a way some youths (I have bounced my ideas off my own teens to help me refine my approach as to what is more likely to work) will see that humorously and decide we are "cool" enough so won't bother messing with us any more. Part of giving second chances, I generally try to not use the template as its so impersonal that no one getting the template will likely ever be turned. Of course, some vandals by what they do show they aren't worth trying to turn anyhow. But sometimes it's just refreshing to try an individualistic approach, like rolling the dice and seeing what happens so to speak.--Degenret01 00:46, January 4, 2010 (UTC)
 * I do use the template a lot, just sometimes its nice to try an alternate method. --Degenret01 00:52, January 4, 2010 (UTC)
 * I don't have crazy expectations lol. I sort of just hope that maybe one out of a hundred will decide to help us instead of vandalizing. Its worth the attempt I think.--Degenret01 00:55, January 4, 2010 (UTC)

Errr.... this guy..
You blocked him already? He only made one bad edit, he should at least get a warning and a second chance before being blocked. In the future, I'd advise you give them at least one more chance, I mean come on, maybe he just got bored and decided to do that. It was only one edit. 06:22, January 4, 2010 (UTC)


 * Well drink a glass of water or somethin', one bad edit, boredom or not, shouldn't give him a block of three days! Maybe a few hours if you really feel the need to, but even still, that's a bit much. One warning can change a person's attitude when they edit the wiki, and blocking him right away probably just angered him more. Boredom was a bad example, but no matter what the case was in his head, it's still only one edit. The warning templates are specifically designed to handle that first/second/third bad edit, whereas a block would be used when it's obvious the editor just won't listen. 06:31, January 4, 2010 (UTC)


 * I did not know that... can't say I think it's fair to the vandal, but eh, what can I do about it? 06:42, January 4, 2010 (UTC)
 * I would have given 5 days, heh. 11:35, January 4, 2010 (UTC)

Deleting too early
Why did you delete the file called lol.png?? While it is a slightly suspicious name, there is no evidence that it was a personal image. I normally either wait until they place the image on their userpage, or about an hour has passed since they uploaded it and nothing has happened to delete the image. 05:39, January 7, 2010 (UTC)
 * I undeleted the image since he used it on the Armour/Strength page. 05:42, January 7, 2010 (UTC)
 * Really, assume good faith. To use a very dodgy, overused, even capitalist and nationalist phrase, "They are innocent until proven guilty". 05:47, January 7, 2010 (UTC)
 * That is not assuming good faith, that is just how different people think that different things are block-worthy. Me and Caleb have had big debates over whether someone should be blocked for vandalising a gemw page with the wrong numbers. If Caleb blocked for a week for that, then that is completely within the outlines of the blocking policy. AGF is when if it is reasonable possible, you assume that the user was trying to make a constructive edit instead of vandalising. That is what I felt you needed to do. 05:57, January 7, 2010 (UTC)

Problem with the custom theme I'm using...
The search box's header displays in white lettering instead of the green lettering used by the other headers and is also not aligned with them. I'd fix this myself, but my knowledge of the coding needed to customize themes is rather limited and I can't seem to figure out how to get the search box header to display correctly. Could you please help me with this rather annoying problem? Thank you for your time. 05:59, January 7, 2010 (UTC)

I updated the Carbon Monobook theme on RuneScape:Theme...
With my updated theme that you and Quarenon helped me with the errors I had experienced using it. I also added a note to the "Credited to:" that states that myself, you, and Quarenon had helped to update it. I hope you won't mind me doing so, as I felt that without Quarenon's and your help, the errors would never have been fixed. Thank you again for helping me with my favorite custom Wiki theme! 06:15, January 8, 2010 (UTC) P.S.: I know that this is an almost carbon-copy of the message I had posted on Quarenon's talk page, but I hope you won't mind.

RE: Release date
I haven't been around RS for very long to be certain, but from what I know we have sources for most updates since at least when RS2 came out, either from [ our update archive], RS's archives or other sources, and for updates before RS2, people liked the idea of using some "filler" text so that truly unknown dates are separated from the articles which have a missing known release date, allowing a useful category to be created. -- 23:41, January 9, 2010 (UTC)
 * It may not look great, but I have to disagree, since less attention would be drawn from editors to help get those fixed. Maybe it's something to debate on the YG thread? -- 00:01, January 10, 2010 (UTC)

Block Policy
I changed the time that you blocked ths ip for since it went beyond the maximum that the blocking policy recommends for that situation. "If they did minor vandalism, such as less than five incidents, then limit the block to less than a week." 01:42, January 10, 2010 (UTC)
 * Technically it is set in stone since it is a policy. I personally can't be bothered arguing, change it back. I probably would have warned him again, then blocked him for 3 days, then blocked him for a week then finally block him for 2 weeks if he keeps on persisting.  01:50, January 10, 2010 (UTC)

Re. that stuff...
Ok, thanks for the head up. Also, a question: if I spotted, reverted, and warned a vandal, do I still have to report him? 21:06, January 10, 2010 (UTC)


 * So in other words, only report him if he has a final warning and vandalizes again? 21:11, January 10, 2010 (UTC)

ancient statuette
what makes you think its zarosian? not all ancient items are zarosian, such as the ancient diary. also, jagex changing its name from zaros to ancient is a retraction, what it used 2 be should not effect what it is now.

so if the saradomin sword was renamed the zamorak sword, you will still call it a saradomin item? no. what we are doing is ASSUMING that jagex still wants it to be considered zarosian, something we have no evidince for. lastly, i dont recall any guthix statuette, thus not all gods have statuettes.

so you think we should ASSUME that because it used 2 be called zarosian, it still is, even though its name was changed? you are correct that theres no evidince to suggest it is not zarosian, there is also no evidince to suggest that it is. just guesses based off canon that was changed. even things like the devious minds relic, which direct quotes say are zarosian, arnt in the article, and yet, items that currently have no stated connection to him are? the past is the past- what the item was formerly called should have no effect on what it is called now.

so if the saradomin sword was changed to being called a zamorak sword, we would still list it as a saradomin item, because "it does not mean to us that the previous name is invalid or retracted?"

how about if we put in the trivia " the ancient statuette may be a zarosian item, seeing as most zarosian items are called ancient and the statuette was at 1 point actually called zarosian." or something like that.

there is no way of knowing weather its zarosian or not. simply no way, unless we where to ask jagex, and thus we should not assume it is or is not. if you dont want to put it in trivia, at least mention next to the ancient stat that theres really no evidence that it is zarosian.
