Signature Part 2
Seeing as the previous was archived (damn you're popular :P), i shall say this here...

It's awesome, i love it, thanks Capt.


 * Is there anyway of making it the default signature when i type the 4 Tildes (~x4) or must it be done manually, because either i'm doing something wrong or it can't be done, as i'm getting this at the moment, as opposed to the above that you created. (I know this is wrong but how do i correct it)


 * &#123;&#123;SUBST:Signatures/LazarouDave&#125;&#125; (talk) 09:10, June 5, 2014 (UTC)


 * Never mind, got it, thanks again Capt.


 * There is only one thing, i would like a link to my talk page like on yours.


 * 09:15, June 5, 2014 (UTC)


 * I just typed the signature requirement that you told me about (how to use it) then ticked use wikitext. Thanks for the :::Congrats BTW, i know i'll never catch up to a top editor such as yourself...

 * 13:12, June 5, 2014 (UTC)


 * Can you add a screenshot of what it looks like to you, it seems fine to me, unless you are talking about the code form/source view. I just added the template you said to use in the standard signature box on my preferences.


 * 13:21, June 5, 2014 (UTC)

I have also noticed it seems to say i'm adding that photo from the sig. every time as well, this is getting quite annoying and i presume other users won't take kindly to it if it persists, i have no idea why it's doing this, could you shed any light on how to fix it.

My preferences for sig. are the {.{Signatures/LazarouDave}.} (dots added to prevent it turning to a sig. on here) and i have ticked "I want to use Wikitext in my signature", so that makes it work as a pictuire sig. unticking it makes it weird and text only, so is it something you did wtrong when designing it? i am currently clueless and shall not sign this comment to avoid addig further code.

Wait, it's working now then?

(Remained unsigned until sig is fixed. LazarouDave)


 * "When you use the signature preference thingy, it makes all the code from the template appear on the page, as well as add the image, because the image itself is used in the coding of the template for your sig." (Reference, so i pasted for easier access) So, the template that you made is causing it to add every part of the code to a talk page every time i sign it, so is there anything you can do to mitigate this issue, or this talk section will be stacked with unsigned comments until it is fixed... or is there something i can do.


 * (Signature that doesn't cause code to appear everywhere, LazarouDave)


 * I have omitted some of the unnecessary code, but lets see what it's like now)

Lazarou Dave | Talk  14:05, June 5, 2014 (UTC)


 * Hmmm, still leaving a load o' code...


 * (LazarouDave)


 * At least it doesn't appear to add the image EVERY DAMN TIME...

Lazarou Dave | Talk  14:10, June 5, 2014 (UTC)


 * I shall until it is fixed


 * 14:14, June 5, 2014 (UTC)


 * I have changed it, and now i shall check the source view...


 * 08:12, June 6, 2014 (UTC)


 * Yeah fixed now, thanks again Capt.

Re: Expanding an article
I haven't had time to test that Killstreak yet, unfortunately. I will try to get some more information about it as quick as I can, however.

ChainSAW/ACOG
Is it really necessary to state that the ChainSAW cannot accept ACOG, people would know that it is Hip-fire only, i'll leave it to avoid problems, i'm just questioning the reasons?

14:00, June 6, 2014 (UTC)

RE: Is You There?
Hey Miller. I had finals last week so I was a bit busy with everything, and I also had some Boy Scout stuff to do. But could you fill me in on everything I've missed the past week, like blogs and major stuff like that? Thanks. Also, regarding the community event, what would the time be for those in California? I am terrible at that sort of stuff. 17:23, June 8, 2014 (UTC)


 * Awesome. Happy 7 year Wiki anniversary! 23:51, June 8, 2014 (UTC)

"Reasons"
And again, can't speak for yourself. But, as usual, why did I expect anything else...

Also, that was a discussion about my previous edit. Nothing about the rewording I did now. 79.248.252.24 08:23, June 9, 2014 (UTC)

Blocking Time?
79.248.252.24 has (as you likely know) argued Black is White with plenty of other users.

Including Myself, You, Legos-Rule 15, and i don't know of any others for the time being, but it can't be acceptable.

Would a block be too far out of place?

I have also realised you aren't an admin, but even then, your backing of this motion would help me (and presumably plenty of others).

09:59, June 9, 2014 (UTC)


 * I was kind of expecting that, hence me asking if a block was a little harsh.


 * I'll keep an eye on him, if that's ok with yourself, and i'll report any other minor 'violations' to you, with a few already on his name, i'm guessing he'll commit a few more in the near future.


 * 10:08, June 9, 2014 (UTC)


 * Sorry, i'm using the template for the time, i forgot i needed the tildes :P

Hunted
Thanks, I forget sometimes.

But don't you think it was a bit much to remove it altogether, THERE'S STILL A PATCH I HAVEN'T GOT FOR IT! (Which is annoying as my CoD:G Target is All Guns Gold (Done) and All/Most Patches) 11:42, June 9, 2014 (UTC)

Buried quote
It's already on the list (well, the correct one is, that one is a little bit incorrect)

13:52, June 9, 2014 (UTC)

RE: M1 Quantum
When I searched up the weapon as EM1, sites like CharlieIntel had it as EM1. In addition, the official CoD site had it as EM1, as well as in the Advanced Arsenal Pack trailer, at the very end of the video. I think he was saying it phonetically rather than by each individual letter. 00:32, June 11, 2014 (UTC)

Weapons
Hi!

I took these images from the Activision booth at E3 via a CharlieIntel video. Kalinine (talk) 14:13, June 11, 2014 (UTC)

Thank you About Tell The Name Of Photo.

Camoflauge and real names
So why is it some arrivals have information on the wiki with descriptions on the real life weapons, gear and camo yet I can't put one that I know is correct?

Finncq (talk) 16:06, June 11, 2014 (UTC)

Discussion deletion
On the page, it does not state how you can obtain them. This is a piece of information that should generally goes on a weapon page. In asking my question, I was going to see if I could add that piece of information to the page. So it was in order to aid the page. Everyone on this wiki has a "delete first, ask questions later" mentality. Also, discussion pages are meant for people to talk about the article. You have no authority to be a judge.

Regarding the Blessing of Anubis Undo
A few hours back you undo'd my edit to the Blessing of Anubis page, with the reason being, "It's not a perk." I was confused and then realized that you were talking about the table thing that goes under the wiki page (Pardon my unproffesionalism.). The reason I put it there was because when adding the Trivia section, I accidentally put it under the "CoD10 Perks" which resulted in it being on the very bottom of the page. My point being that it was already there. I'm not too good with editing, and I sure don't know what goes under which, but I think that the Trivia section is a little too low on the page (All the way at the bottom, below the "CoD10 Perks.") If I learned anything from my time reading wiki articles on here, I think that the "CoD10 Perks" template is there because it also includes a list of the kill streaks and field order rewards too, which relates to the Blessing of Anubis. If the Trivia section shouldn't be there at all, perhaps delete it or if anything move it up. I'm asking you to do this because I already made one error, I don't think I should try and make another.

RE:3000 EDITS!!!
thank you. i actually noticed awhile ago that i had 3000 and thought about saying something on my talk page. RisingSun2013 12:31, June 16, 2014 (UTC)

Images
Hey Miller. I was just wondering, but how have you sent images from the game to the wiki? Is there some sort of feature in BO2/Ghosts, or do you have a capture card or something of the likewise? Just wondering so I could perhaps help with images. Thanks. 16:22, June 16, 2014 (UTC)


 * Thanks Miller! 00:57, June 17, 2014 (UTC)

Template: Infobox/Killstreak
Can you find a way to make the code work to add the property for squad points, i follow the same basis from the others but it won't show up...

Any ideas?

09:43, June 19, 2014 (UTC)

That solution sounds like it'll fix individual pages, not the template. Besides, i tried that, i based it directly of the survival cost, the property above it, just with different titles, so it SHOULD work, but it still doesn't?

again, thank you, however these next few weeks im going to be less active for personal reasons (ill still get on every few days, but for much less time), which i didnt need to mention i guess but it made me think of that. RisingSun2013 12:37, June 19, 2014 (UTC)

H. Nelson
In the biography of this article, it states that "The player can see him escape from the island by boat with three other Marines." Although, one template reads "Status: Alive", another says "Death: August 17th, 1942". When I tried to edit it though, I accidentally messed up the whole page. I later assumed that maybe the Biography mixed him up with another character. I even looked at a gameplay video of the misson "Semper Fi" to see this was the case. What I'm saying is that maybe you could delete the template? Just a suggestion. Not forcing anyone.

P.S: Sorry for deleting the discussion. I was too lazy edit it (like I just did while writing this) and had no idea this wasn't allowed. Btw, I'm not "TheJFKGamer" from YouTube.

TheJFKGamer (talk) 10:35, June 20, 2014 (UTC)

Ah, i asked the same question :P

In that case, why have the name?

11:24, June 20, 2014 (UTC)

Well I am a fan of his YT channel and his histories was the reason I joined the wiki in the first place. Also, I couldn't come up with a better name. And since I couldn't find anyone called "TheJFKGamer", I didn't think anyone would notice that I have the same name as a YouTuber with over 100k subs. Guess I was wrong :P TheJFKGamer (talk) 13:22, June 20, 2014 (UTC)

Hey Miller. Just thought I'd let you and a few other users know, but I won't be editing at all next week starting tomorrow. I'll be camping, so yeah. Anyways, just thought I'd let you know, since I didn't last time. See you next week! Also, yes, this is my 7000th edit. 05:05, June 22, 2014 (UTC)

High Maintenence Page
You said i was less descriptive, so why don't you make it long enough for everyone to understand? Except, tell the truth. Stuhlinger and Russman do NOT glitch the game, and anybody can pick up the knives. not to mention the errors in the elevator/symbol step, and the buddah room step. You just need to hit a wall with the knifes. Can you make this happen?

RE: High Maintenence Page
I don't have an actual video/article of evidence, but the only evidence i possess is person experience.

1. On the page, it says that the elevator symbols change from game to game. They in fact, do not. They always remain in the same spots.

2. Stuhlinger and Russman CAN pick up the balls. I did this with 3 other people yesterday, and we achieved the Easter Egg.

3. ANY character can use the Ballistic Knives in the Buddah room. They also only need to shoot their knives at the wall. I did this step with Russman, and everything worked normally.

A known glitch is buying the Galvaknuckles too early. If this happens, Steps 6 and/or 8 will be impossible to complete. Like i said, i've completed Maxis's side with doing all of the above, and it worked out. I was just trying to guide people onto an easier path, my apologies if i messed up a good article.

IRL
Yeah, i guessed that would happen, although i can't quite see why people don't want their full names to be honest, it wouldn't be trivial enough to be in said section, but it is just a little bit more info for the article in the interest of filling in the blanks and slight betterment of the article.

But what do i know :P

Angola/Buried
Buried takes place UNDER angola, if you listen to Marlton's quotes, he says that it is a western mining town, pushed by tectonic shifts caused by the missile impact.

So while it is in Angola, it is also a U.S town, and User:GtA-mysteries statement may well be legitimate.
