RE: Administrator requirements
Sorry for the delay, but I'll be leaving on vacation later this morning after which point I won't be able to do anything for the Wiki for several days. Saint is also on vacation until the thirtieth, so I'm afraid you'll have to either wait until he's back or try to close it yourself in an objective manner. 17:28, July 26, 2010 (UTC) you rock

Template:RfA Hub
Also before I'm off, I would like to give you input on Template:RfA Hub. I'm assuming that you based it off of Halopedia's version and that it's not just a creepy coincidence. The amount of RfAs and RfBs they archived via their navbox (about 28) they amounted over the course of three years, while we had about 94 requests in two years. An alternative for archiving requests that are subpages would be to do something similar to what the RuneScape Wiki did. If we actually list acrhives via that hub template, then, well, it should be obvious that it's going to get very long within not that long. 17:28, July 26, 2010 (UTC)

RE: PGB
I guessed as much, so why is there still discussion about him? Seijana 23:32, July 26, 2010 (UTC)

Another Topright Image


This is for Call of Duty: Black Ops (Nintendo DS). How would you include that in the template? I don't see how.

P.S. If you don't like the image feel free to change it. Thanks! 19:47, July 28, 2010 (UTC)

Rollback.
Hello, I'm wondering, may i get rollback abilities? 18:01, August 1, 2010 (UTC)

Thanks man, I really appreciate it. 18:35, August 1, 2010 (UTC)

No proof
No proof? Did you even bother to look at the video on there? Ghost297 14:25, August 2, 2010 (UTC)

Top Right Question
On articles such as this what should the top right icon be? MW2? or Real life?  &lt;|Munchable901|&gt; &lt;Contact&gt;  21:33, August 2, 2010 (UTC)

Re:Image naming
So now that my forum has been closed, am I to update the current policy? If so, may I rewrite the humourous tone of the Image Policy as I do so, because I believe it should be taken seriously.  Toon Ganondorf (t   c)  22:04, August 2, 2010 (UTC)

Re:Category
Category:Call of Duty 4 is where most of the CoD4-related articles are categorized. So I re-categorized the pages in Category:Call of Duty 4 Modern Warfare and then deleted the empty category. 12:28, August 3, 2010 (UTC)


 * Well surely it's common sense to move ~40 pages rather than ~330 pages. Is it not possible to re-name categories? 12:33, August 3, 2010 (UTC)


 * Umm, OK, give me a few hours/days and I'll get all the pages in the right place... 12:50, August 3, 2010 (UTC)


 * Look at AK47. The Category:Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare is there, but the AK47 does not appear in the category. What's happening? 13:09, August 3, 2010 (UTC)


 * Never mind, I worked out what to do. 13:12, August 3, 2010 (UTC)

about Pro Cod Gamer.
All Nelo said was that MW2 requires no skill to play. That apparently offended him. 15:56, August 3, 2010 (UTC)

Re:Award Image
Sure thing. 15:59, August 3, 2010 (UTC)


 * Alright, I did it for the 100 edits in one day award. It looks pretty good. We actually have the ability to make new Award Tracks, I don't know what you think about it but it might be a good idea to make tracks for CoD1 - CoD3, as those games are largely neglected. What do you think? 16:06, August 3, 2010 (UTC)

CoD:UTP
Meh, I'm done with him for now. Nelo Angelo97 16:08, August 3, 2010 (UTC)

Ummm...
The article I just 'created' was created by an anon, but apparently the server lagged. could you please delete it? YuriKaslov 00:29, August 5, 2010 (UTC)

Re: "good behavior"
Via IRC. Which is where he did most of his offending. His other offenses he will apologize for on his talk page very soon sometime today. 12:12, August 6, 2010 (UTC)


 * He appears to be genuinely sorry for what he's done, and he wants to come back and join us. I don't see why we can't unblock him. 12:30, August 6, 2010 (UTC)

What You Said...
I remember you said that you were going to be a meme in two days. I shortened that time with this.  Doc.   Richtofen  21:15, August 6, 2010 (UTC)

Akyoyo's RFA will...
...be closed on August 16, 2010. Close it that day. If you knew that already I was just helping you out. 12:25, August 7, 2010 (UTC)

Thanks! 14:19, August 7, 2010 (UTC)

About That Last Undo
That was an accident. I tried to remove the nonsense from the top of the page. Rambo362  20:05, August 7, 2010 (UTC)

Hey :)
Umm i was wondering why do people keep banning me? i am NAZI the guy you just banned and why did you ban me? Nazi is just a word don't let it get to you i am no terrorist or something i just wanted to help fill info on wikia ok?! please un block my other account because i have been editing all day on that one filling in info for games that almost no one has any more. i am just doing this fast i am not typing with errors on wikia. please write back asap.

Okay
But can i link accounts or something to get the edits back? i dislike how you have to make a whole new account to change your name. please tell me i didn't do all that .... for nothing! and don't tell me i am gonna get banned for censoring out the word "stuff" either. man right now i think wikia sucks please show me otherwise.

that's what i thought
i am probably gonna go quite wikia then cuz that is a stupid system :C i am sorry but i have only been on here for 2 days and it already sucks blah blah blah to me.

Bumping
Ok, sorry dude. I just wanted to make sure people saw it so they could add to it because it looks like something that could be constructive and help the Wiki. :) TheManOfIron  11:08, August 8, 2010 (UTC)

CoD4
I'm not one for wasting people's time, and if I have, I'm very sorry. I am currently trying the update for the boxed (i.e. retail) version of the game, which I have. Hopefully this will work, and hopefully I'll catch you on later. 21:37, August 11, 2010 (UTC)


 * Success, the boxed update worked. Thanks for the help and all, much appreciated. 21:48, August 11, 2010 (UTC)


 * I had to get off this computer for some insane reason, so I can't play any more until tomorrow D: 22:47, August 11, 2010 (UTC)

Notability
I'll try to recall what we discussed as well as I can.

We agreed that guns, perks, missions, maps etc. all get covered, as they do already.

We then hit a snag when it came to units and how they should be dealt with. I proposed that they are dealt with in the same way as characters were, which, if I remember correctly, was if they did something notable, they get an article, or something along those lines.

We agreed that trivial items such as grass and whatnot do not get an article, and although COD:G technically used to say that they should, they never did because common sense prevailed.

We came to a conclusion that if somewhere else can cover X better than we can, then X does not get an article. That is why Hitler and Erwin Rommel etc. should not have articles. 02:10, August 15, 2010 (UTC)

MacMillan
Why can't you just leave it as retired on MacMillan...he obviously retired by now anyway...and that song definitely suggests that he has been since the accident.

Good man. Seriously though, what features of this CoD excite you? TNT Lordofthelargepants The Zipper and The Pockets 19:13, September 7, 2010 (UTC)


 * Yeah, I was impressed by that too. I feared that it would be an MW2 clone, especially when I heard about the amount of attachments and killstreaks, it all sounded so MW2-ey. But I really like what they did with the thing. Combat training is great too, I really like the idea of playing with bots. Fun with friends too. And no more camping for killstreaks due to killstreaks kills don't count towards kills... ah, all is well. I like the whole CoD points system too, and wager matches sound really awesome. one in the chamber will be super-suspensefull.
