Corporal grif unblocked
After some discussion it was decided to unblock Corporal grif as spaming pmgs and not editing any mainspace is not against any policy that I am aware of. Also the block duration was rather inappropriate for the supposed infractions. I just thought id bring it to your attention as you do have a right to know that your block was reversed and why.

Removing news categories
Please can you not remove news categories off blogs, when they're clearly relevant Call of Duty/Wiki news. Even if commenting is not allowed, people should still be able to see the blog. Thanks. 23:23, May 22, 2011 (UTC)


 * Hmm, maybe you didn't mean to remove them for whatever reason. You didn't do this on purpose? 16:54, May 23, 2011 (UTC)


 * Ok, it must've been a glitch, I doubt you would have gone to several news blogs and removed news categories randomly for no apparent reason anyway. 22:21, May 23, 2011 (UTC)


 * Go to Special:Preferences and then go to the editing tab. Is the last box ticked for you? If it is, that and the combination of the monobook skin may be causing the categories to vanish, because the feature which ticking the last box disables is responsible for adding and deleting categories. 16:35, May 24, 2011 (UTC)

What?
At Joseph Tan's nomination for No Russian to be the featured article, you said its closed because Joseph Tan did not have enough mainspace edits. He has over 3000 mainspace edits. You edited twice so I had to Rollback. That is why i'm leaving a message here instead. Dudebot • Talk 03:34, May 23, 2011 (UTC)

Renaming images
Question on the Image Guardians rights. If I rename an image and it is inside an archive as well, do I have to edit the archive for it to have the picture or should I just leave it alone?

If you could help...
I know you have recently locked the Zombies Mode template so that only admins can edit it. I was hoping to make an edit, but since I am no admin, I cannot make the edit. What I would like to happen is to add Yuri Raslov and Michael Shaw to the playable characters section (they are the DS characters). With great thanks, HCSnDFTW 12:45, May 30, 2011 (UTC)

Thank you. I had been trying to get that on there for a while. With great gratitude, HCSnDFTW 02:15, May 31, 2011 (UTC)

Shangri-La
Change "Viet cong zombies" into "Zombies" in the infobox cause Shangri-la is in the Himilayas.  RC  ™   04:40, June 20, 2011 (UTC)

Nazi Zombie Template
What i did. The only reason i did that was to make the template look neater, it looks ugly (IMO) when there's a "·" at the end of a line or when it says someting like "Call of" on one line and "the Dead" on another line, when you can just put  and make it look neater. WHISKEY35 said it was ok, so can you please change it back?

And i also put "Call of Duty: Black Ops (Nintendo DS):" so show that those four maps were the CoD:BO Nazi Zombie maps, so people wont confuse them for console maps. 06:28, June 20, 2011 (UTC)

Re:Range
I've added it into the template, thanks. Is the range for PaP weapons the same as their normal counterparts, or is it different? 00:26, July 19, 2011 (UTC)


 * To use the range row I inserted, use  |range=whatever . It will only show up if there is a "|range" parameter specified, otherwise the row will not show, which makes the page neater if some tables don't have the range image. 02:51, July 19, 2011 (UTC)

Thanks you for the effort, well by this website:

detailed zombie weapon stats from der kirsons websites, it only looks like the shotgun have an different range when Pap'ed. I made updated the table picture whit the same colour as the template itself, make the picture fit the page even more so.

the Galil range stop at 75m so 87,5m is my limit in the new table,

Bad Block
Thank you for the block without warning, and a 5 day block, mind you, and a terrible unjustified RFB. Two of your three reasons are invalid. 1. I DID read the entire Der Reise page. Could not find anything about the easter egg. After I updated my flash and watched the VIDEOS I then saw that it mentioned it. But, it was nowhere to be found in text, only on the song page itself, but how would I know to go there if the Der Reise page didn't tell me? 2. You got me there, I didn't entirely read the RPD page to know it was in DS zombies, but it was only the removal of the zombie template and could easily be added again or been undone. 3. In-fact it is a grenade launching variant of the M1911 because it's an M1911 and it launches nades. I also had an entire discussion with COAZ about the name change and we settled that. I sincerely question your logic. You block without research, or warning, and blocking me from posting on talk pages or editing my own profile? That is just low. I respected you, but because of this, my respect for you has slightly descreased. Good day. PkedU2Fast 19:38, July 20, 2011 (UTC)

Re:Maxis Image
It was from the GKNOVA0 hoax which well, was a hoax, so unfortunately we can't use it as canon. 22:08, July 20, 2011 (UTC)


 * It was under the domain http://gknova0.com/, which was either taken down because of complaint from Activision or due to lack of funding. There was also a bunch of YouTube videos, one of which has the Maxis picture at 0:34 in. 00:26, July 21, 2011 (UTC)


 * Indeed, I watched all of their videos and then expected an extremely intricate storyline for zombies (which was what GKNOVA0 was showcasing), instead I didn't get much more of a story than in WaW. It was really well made, I never caught onto the fact it was a hoax myself. 11:56, July 21, 2011 (UTC)

RE: Bad Edits
That still doesn't give you justic to block me from doing ANYTHING except read the wiki for 5 days for only one point of yours which is valid, removing the "Z" for zombie template on the RPD page, but I thought that I was correct and it was not intended vandalism. Something as minor as that is only undone, and nothing else. It's not my fault that the Der Reise page doesn't mention in text that there is a musical easter egg. Like I said before, I respect you. But please don't do this again, for something SO MINOR. PkedU2Fast 21:28, July 22, 2011 (UTC)

Sound Tab
Hey i think it should be necessary to add a new tab in template/infobox and name it "Sound" or "Sounds".

The point is that the .ogg files are placed in "Fire mode" and may be more prefearable to add those in a sound tab

Maxwell123 20:29, July 26, 2011 (UTC)

Spetsnaz
Considering in singleplayer during MW2 they are never explicitally referred to as "Spetsnaz" shouldn't the MW2 section (save for mulltiplayer and quotes) of Spetsnaz be removed and added to a new page, "VDV" since that's technically accurate?

Re:
No, but VDV is russian for Russian Airborne Troops. So we could just call the page "Russian Airborne Troops" and add VDV as a subtext or something

I already made a Russian Airborne Troops page so I'm going to go ahead and publish it and see what you think of it.

War Room
I've noticed there are a staggering amount of war room topics which are still active, yet haven't been commented on for weeks. I think we should archive them and just say they were unsucessful.

On a side note, COD:IAR has a flaw: There's a rule that can't be ignored. That is COD:LEAK. Maybe that should be added? 16:52, August 10, 2011 (UTC)

I think this topic should be raised in the war room or the next CoDference. COD:IAR is greatly flawed and there are so many exceptions to the rule, we're better off scrapping it. 07:03, August 11, 2011 (UTC)

Infobox/Weapon
Hi, i discovered that the sound tab dosn't work correctly, to correct it just copy and past this command:

Go to source mode to view them


 * -style="vertical-align:top; text-align:left; font-weight:normal; border-bottom:1px solid #999;"

And here is an tab for videos.




 * colspan=2 style="text-align:center; margin: 0px; padding:0px; border-bottom:1px solid #999;" |

Maxwell123 08:36, September 4, 2011 (UTC)

The sound tab works correctly, but the video tab need to be slighly adjusted, as seen from the picture below, can you try make it looks like that one:



--Maxwell123 07:18, September 5, 2011 (UTC)

Well if i can see how the current "video tab" commands looks like now, i may can add the spesific configuration to make it looks exsactly like that picture. --Maxwell123 07:24, September 5, 2011 (UTC)

Yes, the template code ! if you send me it i may can adjust it slighly so it looks like that picture --Maxwell123 07:28, September 5, 2011 (UTC)

Can you copy the video command and send it to me pliz --Maxwell123 07:25, September 5, 2011 (UTC)

Yes/No, what i mean if you can go to the edit page for the templaet:infobox/weapon then scroll down to where you find, the video template, it should looks like this


 * -style="vertical-align:top; text-align:left; font-weight:normal; border-bottom:1px solid #999;"

Just copy the video command and send it to me

Thanks let me look into it !

Try replace the current command whit this one:

PS: make sure you go to source mode to view the full command


 * colspan=2 style="text-align:center; margin: 0px; padding:0px; border-bottom:1px solid #999;" |
