User talk:Calebchiam

I have archived my talkpage for the fifteenth time. I archive after every 50 sections or so. On my talkpage, please remember to be civil and polite. If you ask, I'll be glad to add you to my friends list. Also, remember not to leave messages like this after I archive (referring to certain dubious individuals). Thanks.

Help with UserBoxes
Hey. Is there any chance you can help me with my UserBoxes? I tried to get some onto my page but only the text shows up, not the UserBox itself. :(

Thanks, Darvald 12:54, June 10, 2010 (UTC)
 * I fixed. 13:02, June 10, 2010 (UTC)
 * Thanks Evil! :) Darvald 13:08, June 10, 2010 (UTC)

Congratulations on admin :)

Question about 50 edits
Hey Caleb, I was wondering where I could find (if anywhere) the policy that explicitly states that a user needs 50 mainspace edits to take part in article/user/image of the month 08:57, June 16, 2010 (UTC)


 * Ah, thanks! How come this criteria isn't used for the featured image? 09:03, June 16, 2010 (UTC)

RE:
Lol, I forgot. I just hear people say something like "Wanna play the square game?" Or so. :S
 * Nice job on your bandos hilt share. Looks like you got what you lost back and slightly more! 11:34, June 16, 2010 (UTC)

Re: Slayer page
It's fine that you used my format :D It means I did it the right way :P I might be getting back into RS soon, too, with school ending soon (I have two days of final exams starting tomorrow...I should actually study soon). This means that I may actually update my slayer page. Take care, Elijah http://i480.photobucket.com/albums/rr166/InstantWinston/doucheface.png 20:35, June 16, 2010 (UTC)

Re:Graphical improvements
The reason is that they weren't stretched out... the game options for example, are made 140px big, and that fits within one line including the arrows. It looks ugly with a . Of course, I use Internet Explorer 6 with full screen mode enabled and have quite a big computer screen, so... I could take an image for you of how it looks for me. 13:53, June 17, 2010 (UTC) (in that case, one arrow should perhaps be removed) or just make them smaller to fit in the table on every browser. Have you got anymore thoughts? 14:18, June 17, 2010 (UTC)
 * Uhm... I'm very good at English (my teacher says, I live in Amsterdam), but could you please reword the last sentence?  14:08, June 17, 2010 (UTC)
 * "Thoughts?" isn't a sentence, as it has no verb. Well, on topic, we should either make two lines (Options (1) and Options (2)), two lines seperated by a
 * So are the Skills, but I just added a "(click to enlarge)". 14:42, June 17, 2010 (UTC)

FIMG
Hi there, I want to say something. First of all, you extended the nomination of Keldagrim Palace, after which you put it under Unsuccesful nominations of Archive 14. Uhm... Second of all, that new system with .../File:Example.png includes a directly under the heading, creating a double line. I wonder if that can be fixed. (see the top of this message for an example) 05:50, June 20, 2010 (UTC)
 * Great.  06:03, June 20, 2010 (UTC)

Last 10 mins
Well, that sucked... 11:33, June 21, 2010 (UTC)

Re:RE:Graphical Improvements - WTF?
Plausible. The e-mail said it was Coolnesse. >.< 15:28, June 22, 2010 (UTC)

Why did you delete Milky Moo
Milky moo will soon release, this isn't "personal" ? Is the Tehnoobshow Personal? I think not! Give me a good reason why please...?

Thanks anyway, For probably nothing but... Thanks,

VfD
Hey..How do you VfD an image? There is an image in particle that im not sure if its credible or not. Anyways, you can find the image in Rock climbing boots article. The image should be easy to find. ;) But in case you don't know, it's the 404k boots one. 16:23, June 24, 2010 (UTC)

Yeah yeah
I didn't want too either, but it worked, surprisingly. There was a previous forum that I had to close quickly because it was getting out of hand, er I think it's at the top of the complaints one. I haven't blocked anyone, but people were overreacting to nonsense, even me, I'm ashamed to say. But that's why I allowed it to be made and didn't close it right away as just complaining/whining. I ain't perfect either, I know, and it pushed me a little too much, to listen to a couple of trolls come in and make claims of unfairness and power abuse and favortism and whatnot. But it seems to be mostly over now, and no real harm down. 06:52, June 27, 2010 (UTC)


 * Can you close it? Several in the cc want it to be closed, but I can't as it will be seen as power abuse, etc and anyway I edited in it so I'm biased. Degen would but he thinks closing it will give him trouble too. So do you mind closing it before things get out of hand? 07:25, June 27, 2010 (UTC)


 * (50th conflict today) Yeah, but no on e thinks it will get anywhere because of how it started: I was kicked he should have been kicked too! That was the creator of the previous thread, who created this one right after I closed it. 07:39, June 27, 2010 (UTC)

Most people are doing it because they lack the ability to follow basic rules and they want someone else to blame for them getting kicked. They are using it to complain and no productive discussion is actually happening. 07:37, June 27, 2010 (UTC)
 * If it's really going to be a discussion to accomplish anything beneficial it will need to be in a new thread, by someone who is impartial and can't be accused of being on either side (because people are going to jump at that). The current creator is angry, and the current thread really only addresses one instance.  Do whatever you think is best, I have faith you will make the right decision.  I'm just providing what I think of it.   07:51, June 27, 2010 (UTC)

Total level
Nice total level on your page, haha. 09:46, June 27, 2010 (UTC)
 * Yes! I can now catch up to some of your skills now! Haha. I'm gonna get 80 agility and you can't stop me.  09:54, June 27, 2010 (UTC)
 * Well you might have a chance really. I haven't been training combat. The only combat skill I levelled up was only defence. And that was probably last week. 09:57, June 27, 2010 (UTC)
 * Maybe....total level right now? I still have 1 month of play time hehe. 10:05, June 27, 2010 (UTC)
 * Ouch....1k total levels to go haha. 01:57, June 28, 2010 (UTC)

Dialogue pages
I wish to give it a final week warning, ie it will be closed in 7 days. But although this is not a case for consensus, I still must respect that more people may have comments, and so do not want to close it immediately. The reason I'm telling you this is I want you to say/close it, as I hae already commented several times on the issue. A one week final warning, followed by deletion unless someone comes up with a legal way to keep them, not 'keep because we haven't been arrested yet' kind of thing. 12:13, June 27, 2010 (UTC)
 * Since I just saw you, I want to ask your opinion of this warning then close. 12:14, June 28, 2010 (UTC)
 * Yeah. It's just this is one of those times when our policies cannot help us, and that leaves me anxious about the backlash I will recieve, no matter how much it is proven that consensus doesn't fix anything. Can I count on your support if things all go to hell? 12:48, June 28, 2010 (UTC)
 * If you say so. I am going to put the final pending now. 12:59, June 28, 2010 (UTC)
 * Reda it and tell me what you think. I respect your opinion. 13:10, June 28, 2010 (UTC)
 * I thought so too, but I guess I've always been heavy-handed when it comes to things. Anyway if/when it happens I'mma need probably a lot of help cleaning up the mess 100+ pages deletions will have caused, you halp? 13:17, June 28, 2010 (UTC)
 * That suxs, but it'll all be worth it eventually. Anyway gnite. 13:21, June 28, 2010 (UTC)

civil
happy? 3AF 15:03, June 27, 2010 (UTC)


 * It's not only the words, but the general tone of your sentences that determine whether it is rather attacking and uncivil. 15:08, June 27, 2010 (UTC)
 * if i was uncivil againt anyone, it was jagex, not leftiness. 3AF 14:44, June 28, 2010 (UTC)

Blank pages while editing/uploading
Hi. I was just wondering if you ever had problems while editing and/or uploading, i.e. getting blank pages after hitting Save/Preview/Upload?

I have been experiencing this error on a frequent basis and I was wondering if you had as well... 04:35, June 28, 2010 (UTC)

oops >.>
I forget to protect it. Although, I wasn't too sure if right thing by semiprotecting wiki.png for 3 minutes, instead of uploading it myself, but I decided to be a little bold myself and go for it. Did I break any rules or anything by allowing him to upload it? 10:40, June 29, 2010 (UTC)
 * Ah, okay. I was just worried that it would come back to haunt me later on. 10:43, June 29, 2010 (UTC)
 * I have good reason to be: I was the only admin active at the time that flame forum started, and when I closed it, I as still the only one active then, too, so I was fighting for an hour, trying to keep people in hand. It's what caused me to put up that ominous block warning. And soon, I will be making my own change that will probably cause drama: the deleting of dialogue pages. tl;dr, I don't like drama. 10:54, June 29, 2010 (UTC)

err
Sorry, I didn't notice your question. Hmm. I think it is Forum:Dialogue pages. Plus the vfd that I will be closing soon er RuneScape:Requests for deletion/Template:Hasdialogue. It was for all dialogue pages, but of course it won't just be an quick mass delete. If possible, I will put parts of the dialogue if it is actually useful to the page. But for many things, like the heads and summoning familiars, the dialogue add nothing directly, it's just 'flavor text'. They wouldn't be any different without it, and their use probably wouldn't be any less. 06:45, July 1, 2010 (UTC)
 * The decsison is to delete. This isn't a simple consensus matter, it is a legal issue. And if you read the rfd, you will see that the 3 main options are

That's it. No amount of consensus on this wiki is going to change the fact that it is most likely illegal. And for #2, it would require every editor's agreement or else the entire wiki would have to be re-written. And 3 of course is just not reasonable, as I would hope anyone will understand. Even Robert H. recently made a comment that said our only logical choice is to delete. An simply put I don't know copyright law well enough to dispute it. 06:53, July 1, 2010 (UTC)
 * 1) Delete.
 * 2) Change the license, which would require consensus from every editor.
 * 3) Ignore it and hope nothing happens.
 * To give someone their last chance, ie cite a case that something like this has happened but was decided fair use. Something along those lines. Trust me on this one, I thought it out before clicking submit. 06:57, July 1, 2010 (UTC)
 * Well okay, I didn't think about someone making a new dialogue page within the week. I didn't plan for that, and so I probably overreacted. I really just did not expect it at all, so I was hasty, because I didn't really know what to do. Delete? Let it go, and delete later? Tell the guy about the high probability of it being deleted within a week? In retrospect, the last was probably correct. I made a mistake, and I regret it, because I probably scared him away. But I'm human. I overreact, or act on impulse without fully thinking out the consequences. I did that here. But I don't know what too do know, as he probably won't come back, as it is a bad experience, although relatively common, to have your first page deleted. 07:10, July 1, 2010 (UTC)
 * No, it was made after robert's post. In fact, I think it was robert himself who brought up that point somewhere, but I dunno for sure. But the reason I believe it is not simpyl a consensus materr is that We do not decide the law. If it is illegal, no amount of our policies are going to protect us. That is the point I think exists with consensus being a non-issue. And I know that guy left a response,I repsonded to that, I think. as for chicken's point, the point of the vfd isn't to debate other legality issues, that's for another time. We just execute them. Anyway, if it were consensus, I'd still have to say delete, as robert makes very strong points that no one has refuted. 07:19, July 1, 2010 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure you get my point. The point I'm trying to make is that this isn't a normal issue. Our process of doing things isn't set up for handling issues like this, and it's at these times that we must 'think out of the box'. Our policies aren't meant to cover every situation, and I believe this is one of them. You can't follow a policy religiously, hoping it will protect you from real consequences. That's a problem I have with many admins, but that's a different discussion. 07:30, July 1, 2010 (UTC)
 * That was what I was going to say, but I decided to change it. I don't think either of us understand what the other is trying to say, and I'm not sure how to make things more clear, as I am terribel at explaining things. 07:35, July 1, 2010 (UTC)
 * I think a good way to explain it is I'm using ucs. I believe I am using my common sense to tell me that following oyr policy of consensus isn't the best way to go. If that doesn't help explain it, then I dunno what will. 07:41, July 1, 2010 (UTC)
 * How about looking at this way: I had already determined that the arguements for deletion were must stronger, but instead of closing it right away, I decided to leave it open for a week to see if anyone would change my mind. 08:27, July 1, 2010 (UTC)

Oh, okay. I thought you were arguing against the legitimacy of me posting that warning. 08:32, July 1, 2010 (UTC)

On an unrelated note, do you think my accidental deletion of coins will cause any problems? I know large histories used to cause problems. 07:31, July 1, 2010 (UTC)

Gu'Tanoth
It had been almost a month since the removal of my proposal for delisting for the Gu'tanoth image, Could you please remove the closed debate from the 14th archive and reopen the discussion as the consensus of the wikians may of changed since then? 03:06, July 5, 2010 (UTC)

Rollback
Hey Caleb, I'm just doing what the page said to do about contacting an admin for rollback. Should be an useful tool like for those pharaoh sceptre edits. 10:00, July 8, 2010 (UTC)
 * I'm almost certain you need to ask a 'crat for the rollback tools... I asked azaz for mine, Good Luck! 10:07, July 8, 2010 (UTC)
 * This page is for users requesting rollback rights from a bureaucrat . - The first line of the page you highlighted :) 10:09, July 8, 2010 (UTC)
 * Okay thanks. I guess the statement on Help:Revert "All versions of an article are stored, so it is easy to revert a bad edit and return the article to its previous state." is where the confusion is at. 10:25, July 8, 2010 (UTC)

Re:Re:Featured image nomination

 * 2) Thanks for the help

 * Oh, the fact that you responded almost instantly to a post made on someone else's talkpage. It looked kinda stalkerish

Defining administrators
Hello Caleb, my latest project should be getting underway soon. Unfortunately, due to personal matters, I will not be able to be as active as is necessary for a project of this scope to succeed, therefore I'm delegating each unclaimed section to a willing administrator to moderate. To quote myself from Degen's talkpage: "Basically, you'd be creating the bulleted discussion points, keeping the discussion on track, be responsible for promoting the discussion you're in charge of, and if you wish, sum up the discussion afterwards to be included in the broader essay. (My wording makes it sound more difficult than it is). You also are free to edit any of the subpages (mostly to add in the discussion points that give shape to the section, otherwise it would devolve into aimless chit-chat). I'm of course still fleshing this out, however I think this would be the most efficient method thus far." If you are interested, please let me know, many thanks.-- 06:26, July 9, 2010 (UTC)
 * Excellent, I've added you as the moderator of the Expectations sections, I'll hopefully be able to fill the other positions promptly, I'd like to start the first discussion by the end of next week.-- 06:42, July 9, 2010 (UTC)

You said you saw the IP, block that too, for like a month. 02:22, July 12, 2010 (UTC)
 * If you do know the ip, can you block longer than the autoblock can give, the person is most likely to make a new account and try again. The autoblock of one day is not enough. 06:29, July 12, 2010 (UTC)

RE: Jad
I noticed that the opinions on that forum topic are very split, with some people saying that it's a big deal, and some saying that it isn't. Some are even denying the glitch/update altogether. Perhaps you should ask someone who you trust who recently did a fight cave run (and got to Jad), because I don't particularly believe anyone on the forums one way or another.
