| − | Hey! Thank you very much for adding that image for the Grinchlin Stalker, if you find other image for the Grinchlin Thwacker/Scorcher with better quality (and to fix my grammar when i wrote the article, i'm sorry) i would be very grateful :)

| − | -Sir Onox
| + | I don't know whether you'll check this again. And if you do, you might find this message irritating. But thank you for all of your work on the wiki. Thank you for your research into shields and other aspects of the game. Your effort has not gone unnoticed, and I'm sad to see you leave. Happy travels.

| − | == gunner update innacuracy ==
| + | I was gonna draw a thing, but then I realized that I can't draw very well under stress! We didn't always agree on things, but in the end what all of us have made so far has made the community pretty happy. Hope to keep seeing you in-game. -[[User:Novaster|Novaster]] 11:42, 13 October 2014 (UTC) |
| − | i have corrected a minor inaccuracy in your edit. the page is not a candidate for speedy deletion, but a golden drop of truth

| − | Just in case you haven't noticed it yet, image tags need to be in the fancy brackets{} and not parentheses(). --[[User:Equinox|Equinox]] 22:34, 9 February 2013 (UTC)

| | + | Can you not remove WiPs because of your "personal(ly)" opinion? These are physical entities in the game and need to be documented. -[[User:Novaster|Novaster]] 08:56, 14 February 2015 (UTC) |
| | | | |
| | + | ==Clotho's Talk Page== |
| | + | Here's a huge important chunk of what you missed regarding the leadup to even bothering making that tag (also sent you this mail in game): |
| | | | |
| − | As far as I can see Vial Belt.png uploaded just fine, and is visible on the Pickups page. What you may have seen was the wiki's old habit of taking forever to get up to speed with a newly uploaded image. --[[User:Lithium31337|Lithium31337]] 05:25, 7 April 2013 (UTC)
| + | <em> |
| | + | Went through and "fixed" rarity icons. All that's left is outdated filenames on the Supply Depot page, which is currently protected, so I can't edit it. Would you mind changing the filenames to the ones used on the wiki now (all examples on Rarity page)? Or you could unprotect the page (again, haha - like you did so I could link to Supply Depot Sale stuff). The risk here is that I might not be online when it's unprotected, I suppose. |
| | | | |
| − | == Battle Sprites ==
| + | Just got fed up with a switch system, but I realize this sort of "reuploading things to better names" activity isn't ideal. There's a lot of inconsistencies on the wiki when it comes to this sort of thing (materials, perks, etc), and well, I've decided that it's not worth anybody's time (certainly not mine) to "fix" this sort of issue by reuploading files to better names, when you can just make an ugly (but functional) switch. There's more reasons than time though: |
| | | | |
| − | To be completely honest, I was trying to get images of about all the evolutions and their ultimate variants rather than just a huge group picture of all of them, luckily after constant waiting, I was able to get nearly everything. [[User:KawashiroNit|Midnight-Violet]] 21:11, 13 August 2013 (UTC)
| + | :1) the game could give multiple functions to a single entity, as with "buff" effects (pickup items as well as triggered by monsters on each other or battle sprites on knights is just one example) - I just fixed duplicate file issues regarding these today |
| | + | :2) the game could change the arsenal classification of an item to be another arsenal classification, potentially rendering filenames inaccurate, and a hassle to "fix" if there's hundreds of them. But nobody really sees filenames except editors, so inaccurate filenames of this specific kind don't matter as long as published page content is clear, right? |
| | + | :3) we are at risk of losing easy access to archive data using the "reupload to a better filename to fix" method. I've often used the date an original icon was uploaded to make sense of the order of events. For example, I used the file history of the accessory icons for several of the older Round Shade accessory items to try and discern the relative date Round Shades were first released (not everything has release notes or admin posts), and a few others. |
| | | | |
| − | == Request Image ==
| + | In the future, I'll be sure to just deal with a messy switch that only editors who have to muck around with code have to see. I'll "fix" odds and ends that I see though, like if someone just uploads a file to ads;jkflhasdfjkh.jpg or something like that :) |
| | | | |
| − | Hello Acies, i saw that you took a perfect image for the mission interface The Gauntlet: http://wiki.spiralknights.com/The_Gauntlet
| + | should I put the above reasons in a sort of "how to wiki" guide (a few of us are planning on revamping the style guide page to be more up to date), if you think they're prudent/correct? |
| | | | |
| − | My request is: Can you do the same for the ancient generator and crossing the chasm article? Many thanks!
| + | -Novaster 14:15, 11 February 2015 (UTC) |
| | | | |
| − | http://wiki.spiralknights.com/The_Ancient_Generator
| + | :I've fixed the icons. I'm not sure why you have to reupload them when it's so much easier to move the images to a better name. Just provide me with a specific list and the proposed names and I'll move them. --Clotho 16:52, 12 February 2015 (UTC) |

If you give me a list, I'll move them to the right spot. That way we don't lose history or resolution. --Clotho 22:00, 12 February 2015 (UTC) |

| + | </em> Sorry for any confusion caused by my "cleanup" of what I consider to be "clutter" on talk pages I'm involved in. -[[User:Novaster|Novaster]] 20:09, 17 February 2015 (UTC) |

| + | |
| − | Can i re-add the vog cub for historical purposes? I forgot to add the obsolete tag. :/ --DragonFaku
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | :I can't really say for historical purposes. I've seen a lot of people try to add it for historical purposes but it just flat out isn't in the game nor has it even been. Vog Cubs have never existed in the game. If there was a point where it was in game aside from the promotional trailer, that would be a different story like with the Golden Trojan or Golden Gun Puppy, they both existed during Private Beta and were removed later. Vog Cub doesn't follow this rule hence it shouldn't be noted. --[[User:Acies|Acies]] 23:56, 1 October 2013 (UTC)

| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | :No, it wasn't. I didn't realize that Oceanic removed that section from the original page since all I did was copy over the changes he made back to The Third Troika and replaced the unannounced name with The Third Troika as it wouldn't let me revert it to the previous changes for whatever reason. I'll add it back in here in a second. --[[User:Acies|Acies]] 20:12, 10 November 2013 (UTC)

| + | |
| − | Why are you undoing source links?
| + | |
| − | :Source Links are not needed for everything aside from a few-cases such as the Iron Sets and the Total War promotions. I had no intention of actually removing the sources from that. I just checked the history and re-added the original obtainment method. --[[User:Acies|Acies]] 09:49, 20 May 2014 (UTC)
| + | |
| − | ah okay, some of those were wrong and broken links, so be careful please. I've got precise source links for the individual item requirements (which took a little while to find, and are different per item).

| − | | + | |
| − | ==Serene Things==
| + | |
| − | Do you think the serene items (and dangerous brig/draped) need their own pages, or are they fine where I've put them?

| − | | + | |
| − | ==Communication==
| + | |
| − | -I noticed you've removed the root tags for several of my animations. Could you please post on my usertalk page when and why you do this? Cause I don't want to spend more time later making them if you're just going to take them down (which you shouldn't do in general, because many players have asked me over the years for such a thing, and now that I've done it, even more are asking for more...so I do it for everything I see now, as fast as I can).
| + | |
| − | Anyway, just respect my time as I respect yours - cause like I said, don't wanna spend time making something that will be deleted later.
| + | |
| − | IMO: Unattached and Overworld are needed, especially for things like the grand topper and auras that leave trailing effects. I won't do any more inspect windows, those are large and don't really reveal anything more than the unattached does, besides clipping and special circumstances like the leafy aura (which sticks parts of itself on your head). -[[User:Novaster|Novaster]] 05:15, 21 May 2014 (UTC)

| − | ==Your Edits==
| + | |
| − | Could you be a little less..."scalding" or "mean" with your edit comments, please? We're all just trying to make the wiki a better place, after all. Several people wished to have the root functional gear for the costumes be the oldest form, so cobalt isn't wrong - it is correct (as it is the exact same "form"). For the sake of consistency across costume pages, the Spiral Crescent (functional gear) Helm is of course better. So yes, spiral crescent is better ''now''...but it's hardly an "apple and orange" difference. Just be nicer with how you word your edit comments, please. [[User:Novaster|Novaster]] 16:07, 4 June 2014 (UTC)
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | :I don't exactly how it was ''Scalding'' or even ''Mean'' if the message wasn't exactly directed at anyone specifically but at a piece of information that I thought was wrongly put there. I probably could have worded it better, I agree, but I apologize. --[[User:Acies|Acies]] 16:19, 4 June 2014 (UTC)

| − | ==Icon Recolors==
| + | |
| − | I uploaded a few icons for table experimentation (it involved page width for certain browsers) - anyway, these are RGB, and when I uploaded them I tagged them with a general temporary [http://wiki.spiralknights.com/index.php?title=Special:WhatLinksHere&target=Template%3ANeeds+update "needs update" tag] to find 'em all later. If you're feelin like working on those icon recolors again, the ones with that tag would be a great start, IMO. I'd look into them, but I don't have a good process in place yet. [[User:Novaster|Novaster]] 16:46, 4 June 2014 (UTC)
| + | |
| − | :I'll help with some whenever I figure out how to correctly get the color-coding working as spot on as it can. A lot of my notes were all over the place hence I have yet to update the generalized Icon topic about my method. As such, I'm '''still''' looking into it and it has yet to die off. I plan on going back into conversion methods later on. Specifically after the charity event. --[[User:Acies|Acies]] 17:10, 4 June 2014 (UTC)

| + | |
| − | ''Found this page via "what links here" during a format project for Battle Sprite icons - deletion tags.''
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | Hello, I decided to fix the names for the battle sprite icons. Most "icons" on the wiki have "icon" in the file name, in order to make tables easier to manage and so on. For whatever reason, battle sprite icons were not uploaded this way! Feel free to check [[User:Novaster/Sandbox|this page]] for icons with consistent names, and replace the "bad filename" icons on your page if you wish (it makes it easier for Clotho/other Wiki Admins to go through and delete images with bad file names if no pages link to Deletion Candidates). Have fun playing! -[[User:Novaster|Novaster]] 00:16, 14 August 2014 (UTC)

| − | ==Your recent edits about weapon types at the top of pages==
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | Please don't undo work like this. It's useful work that users have asked for. And it's not repetitive information, actually. Yes, the image is usually a dead giveaway, but not always. This information is NOT readily available on the page in text form either - it's down near the category section, sure, but not all users look there, and that's inconvenient anyway. Contrary to your initial edit statement: Sometimes it's ("it" being what the weapon type is) in the description, but not always. Sometimes it's in the attack description, but not always. Sure, the type is right there at the top...if you're looking at the page's coding. It doesn't show up in the actual page display, but it does register category. Wiki-wide, my edits make these pages more consistent. Page format would be like it is for costumes, accessories, all materials (like the [[Beast Scale]] for example), and so on. At the top of those pages, they've always said what the item type is is right away. As an editor and a user, I've always appreciated that. I'll be re-doing these edits, and please don't undo them again. I'd appreciate it if they were implemented for older weapon items too, but I just don't have time for that right now.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | P.S. Putting the information on physical appearance in the "notes" section (instead of at the top) is a better move, yes. That style was bleedover from the costume edits a lot of us did over the summer, particularly of the recolor pages, and isn't as formal as it could be. One day when I have a lot of time and nothing important IRL to do, I'll go through and make those costume pages more consistent regarding this style. -[[User:Novaster|Novaster]] 15:30, 18 September 2014 (UTC)
| + | |
| − | :Interestingly, the spacing for ''Weaponinfo'' vs. ''Armorinfo'' at the top of the pages is different. There's some sort of hiccup, at least for firefox, regarding this spacing. If you could figure out what's causing that, and fix the weaponinfo template accordingly, that would be great. I hope it's just my browser being stupid, so no fixing would be needed. [http://imgur.com/vpk3Y98 Here] is an example of what I'm talking about. -[[User:Novaster|Novaster]] 15:56, 18 September 2014 (UTC)
