DBAD
Hey,

I wasn't violating DBAD, if you think I was how was I? Just wondering.

Thanks. 11:26, May 15, 2014 (UTC)

I just personally thought you were editing out my edit for no reason. I was making it so that players who weren't as familiar with the game (new players come in every day) can understand which platforms the particular item is found on. Maybe they think that you can get one in Extinction when you truly can't. To me, if I signify which parts of the game it appears in (in the Squadmate's case, Multiplayer only), people can understand it better. It might not matter to more familiarized players like us, but it can certainly help people new to the game, plus, I think it looks neater than just having one huge section on it.

And I wasn't saying you violated DBAD at all, but I was just using it in just regular talking matter. I know it's not how we use it around here, plus I truly did question why, for any reason whatsoever, it was necessary to delete my edit. It's better that than replacing the entire page and typing in "YOU SUCK!" in a massive font (looking right at you, Weird Al). I didn't find editing it out was a very smart move.

RE:MP7 isn't like the Bizon?
i checked the stats and i suppose they are similar. however, adding it back, add it to the top of the page itself instead, not at the top of the bo2 section. RisingSun2013 23:59, May 18, 2014 (UTC)

I placed it in the Black Ops 2 section because I was less familiar about its stats in Modern Warfare 3, which is why I avoided saying the MW3 variant of the MP7 as being similar to the Bizon. I do appreciate you checking it over. Didikins (talk) 00:05, May 19, 2014 (UTC)

I know that it costs 7 points, the other guy was trying to be funny/vandalising secretly...

Expanding a Page
Hey Didikins, how are you going?

Since your currently one of the only people who expands stubs and pages amazingly, | was just wondering if you could expand the Undead Crew article? It would be a MASSIVE help to wiki.

Thanks. 14:47, June 5, 2014 (UTC)

Keep it Up
Keep up your work, Didikins, your contributions to the wiki are outstanding. Your one of few users who writes unbiased, proper and fantastic descriptions and tips for weapons, also expanding the page as well. I think you could be a contender in August for User of the Month because of all your hard work. 13:57, June 27, 2014 (UTC)
 * No problem, all your work is spectacular, keep it up. 14:03, June 27, 2014 (UTC)

Re:This Zombies Anon Vandal
I've already contacted a admin who has blocked him for 3 days. If you see him vandalise again after his block, you can always contact either a trusted user or an admin. Keep on the watch for vandalism, and keep up the edits! 14:29, July 2, 2014 (UTC)

The KSG's Similarity to the Tac 12
after making an edit to the tac 12 page i noticed you removed that the ksg isnt similar, which i added back not seeing that you removed it. however, im not gonna remove it again because it is similar in looks. RisingSun2013 22:54, July 14, 2014 (UTC)

i know it isnt similar statistically, i didnt know it was such a problem to have it say similar instead of visually similar, i wouldve changed it if id known. also sorry for the late reply. RisingSun2013 21:57, July 23, 2014 (UTC)


 * The KSG in campaign fires buckshot by default, like the KSG 12 and Tac 12. The KSG only fires slugs in multiplayer and zombies. 03:34, July 15, 2014 (UTC)


 * I see your point, although I still think the KSG should be mentioned as similar. Even if it is similar in 1/3 of the game types. 04:24, July 16, 2014 (UTC)


 * Since the KSG shoots buckshot in campaign, it'd still be better to keep it as is, as that still makes it similar. And if you were to do visually similar, then the KSG12 would have to be added as well. According the official game guide, however, it says that the KSG has a slightly higher damage than the R870 MCS, but lower than that of the Olympia and SPAS12. 04:40, July 16, 2014 (UTC)


 * Your reasoning is sound enough (although the stats I retrieved were from campaign). Anyways, I think it would be fine to change to visually similar weapon. 05:07, July 16, 2014 (UTC)

RE:Desert Eagle
Well one main thing is that it wasn't all that well known. I never heard of such a hoax and I was editing here back when MW2 was new. Also, things such as hoaxes aren't generally covered on trivia sections, much in the same way as glitches. 01:04, July 30, 2014 (UTC)
 * The wiki is maintained by many users. Sometimes some pages may have information that should have been removed. If all the pages were free of information that shouldn't be there CoaZ would be out of the job. Also, while I am subscribed to Tats videos, they're not the best source, since they would have actively researched these hoaxes, so it doesn't necessarily make them well known, just well reserached. 01:58, July 30, 2014 (UTC)

Mercs ethnicity
go to the talk page for Mercs and give me a source of how they have South African descent. thats the only way we can settle this now.Captainmad (talk) 04:21, July 30, 2014 (UTC)User:Captainmad

im not wasting my time wit you. im done with this stupid @$$ argument and in the meantime i will see if anyone gives a source of how theyre south african. bye, have a nice day, buddy. --Captainmad (talk) 04:38, July 30, 2014 (UTC)User:Captainmad

don't worry, I wasn't attacking you. later. --Captainmad (talk) 04:42, July 30, 2014 (UTC)Captainmad

RE:
You'll have to apply for Rollback rights. If you leave a request, I'm sure you'll be able to get it. 03:57, August 1, 2014 (UTC)

Regarding Your Image
I deleted it for having a poor name. If you would like to re-upload it, but need it renamed, could you contact me, and I'll be glad to do so. 01:27, August 15, 2014 (UTC)


 * Eh, I guess so. 01:35, August 15, 2014 (UTC)


 * I ended up renaming. Make sure to add those types of images that aren't for mainspace with "Personal Didikins" at the front please. 01:37, August 15, 2014 (UTC)


 * Why? 01:39, August 15, 2014 (UTC)


 * If you're referring to the image you had uploaded first, then yes, I did. Otherwise, I am unfortunately not quite understanding your question. And the "bacon_printer.gif" I renamed. 01:43, August 15, 2014 (UTC)


 * You still want the newer image though, right? You don't want it deleted? 01:46, August 15, 2014 (UTC)

Recent image
Hi. Your recent image "Wtf is going on.jpg" was deleted as it did not conform to our image policy. It was both badly named and incorrectly licensed. When uploading in the future please ensure to follow the naming and licensing rules as seen on the policy page, failure to do so may lead up to a block if enough warnings are given. If you need any more help on image uploading feel free to ask myself, anyone on the Custodian team or Sysop team. Thanks. 04:00, September 1, 2014 (UTC)

This wiki is just...
How is reused aimations not trivia? Jesus, the admins/supervisors on this wiki are so tight and moody, it's no wonder I stopped coming here years ago... Sammyrock0087 (talk) 21:19, October 15, 2014 (UTC)

XP Glitch
It has happened to me before with the MDL prior to the prestige patch fix...

01:08, November 29, 2014 (UTC)

RE:
Eh, you're right, thanks for mentioning the foregrip. I've corrected it on the page. --Ultimate94ninja (talk) 17:32, December 7, 2014 (UTC)

Images
Those images were low quality, and as explained in my edit summary, did not aid the page in any particular way. So how exactly was re-adding them a case of "fine as it is"? 92.7.184.82 20:53, December 7, 2014 (UTC)
 * I'm sorry, but that reasoning seemed very flawed and essentially a lazy of way of saying "you're an anon, so I reverted it because it was better before an anon edited it". We have no need of the in game CaC menu images, we have far better images already uploaded that renders those ones redundant (so telling me to upload them myself just seems more rude than actually helpful). Furthermore, that gallery is crowded, it has no reason to feature the menu icons of just two games, if anything it should feature all the games menu icons, and they should be placed next to their respective game, instead of all crammed in to a oversized gallery. 92.7.184.82 14:13, December 8, 2014 (UTC)

Forum
I deleted your forum because its content is purely idiotic. The moment I told another admin abut the forum, the first two things he said was "i'd delete it" and "did you delete it?". Watercooler can be used for non-CoD related things, as well as non-serious matters. But what that forum was, was just pure idiotic, and had no reason to have even been made. 20:39, December 16, 2014 (UTC)
 * Don't try and play the victim card. The forum you made was completely unnecessary. It served literally zero purpose, and had no reason to even have been made. If any other user made that same forum, it would have still been deleted. And trying to claim you're being unfairly treated is a bit ich when just a few days ago you undid an anonymous user's edit without so much as a decent explanation. The forum was deleted for having no reason for it being made, no other reason. Do not try and twist this in to some kind of victim card. 08:57, December 17, 2014 (UTC)

RE:
Yep, CoaZ took care of him, and I did the same to another registered user that added spam images to the same article. BTW why don't you actually apply for rollback rights? I'm sure you can get them. --Ultimate94ninja (talk) 05:46, December 22, 2014 (UTC)

Yer Blog
I re added the commenting to it. I have not idea how it got removed. Conqueror of all Zombies (talk) 00:36, December 26, 2014 (UTC)

You're welcome my good sir! Conqueror of all Zombies (talk) 05:08, December 26, 2014 (UTC)

If you're looking for an answer, see this. 20:07, December 27, 2014 (UTC)


 * Well it'd be nice for Sam to actually explain that instead of just removing the commenting. Conqueror of all Zombies (talk) 20:17, December 27, 2014 (UTC)
 * he did explain it somewhere (but cant remember where). 20:19, December 27, 2014 (UTC)
 * The only reason I saw was on Lego's talk page (see the link I provided), though it was quite short for an answer. 20:21, December 27, 2014 (UTC)
 * yeah, thats the explanation i saw. 20:22, December 27, 2014 (UTC)

RE:My Blog
The blog was little more than just pure ranting, not even a point for debate, just complaint. For that reason I allowed you to keep the blog with the commenting disabled, however as you have shown you cannot be trusted with leaving it as such, I have deleted the blog. Furthermore, if you persist with such aggressive insubordinate behaviour, as you did on my talk page, you will receive a block. I believe you have gained enough warnings regarding your behaviour. 10:11, December 28, 2014 (UTC)

Block
Due to your unacceptable behavior, you have been blocked for 3 days for aggressive behaviour. You are welcome to come back and edit sensibly after the block is up, however it is very strongly advised that you read and review our policies thoroughly before you start to edit again. If you believe your block is unfair you can leave a message on this page and an administrator will consider it.

Any more unacceptable behavior and another block will be issued. Thank you.

MDL
I first thought the same thing, until i tried it on Hardpoint or Momentum...

The aim is to have it ready and spam the shit out of the Objective with the Grenades, take weak shot power into consideration. Danger close is Essential, and if anything, i recommend Momentum, as you know how many people on the objective...and it's a confined space, rather than a large location, where they have room to avoid grenades and stay in (like Hardpoint...but it CAN work on that mode), but with Momentum, i recommend trying to find games on Detroit and Ascend, as those maps give you a good chance of getting a good K/D, due to the confined objectives, other maps work...but those are the best. So try that and see if the  MDL performs any better...if not, i'll try my best to explain the best way to use it. 19:09, January 2, 2015 (UTC)

RE:AE4 Undo
Hi, on Call of Duty Wiki:Weapon rules it says '''This is where you put misc facts about the weapon IN-GAME. Do not put trivia that relates to real life...''', so I guess that has to be removed as well. 18:19, January 3, 2015 (UTC)

Image
i renamed your "meanwhile in canada" image to "personal didikins meanwhile in canada". please try to remember to put "Personal Didikins" at the front of image names that are for personal use; another admin or a custodian might just delete it instead of renaming it like i did and you could end up with a warning from them. 18:35, January 11, 2015 (UTC)

no problem. 19:01, January 11, 2015 (UTC)

RE: Archiving Pages
I'd do it, except that your talk page is still a bit small to constitute an archive (it's only 15,000 bytes). I'd say you could archive it once it reaches 30,000 at the very least, although some users go to 40,000 or even 50,000. Anyways, right now, you don't have to archive your talk page, as it is too small. 01:35, January 21, 2015 (UTC)


 * While we do allow non-admin to do it, we require one to tell an admin first before they archive, in case the talk page is too small for it to be archived. 01:49, January 21, 2015 (UTC)

RE:
In this case you can write the differences in the main body instead. The thing about the infobox/table is that we're sticking to the weapon rules by only stating the highest/lowest values in it. --Ultimate94ninja (talk) 21:38, January 30, 2015 (UTC)
 * Right, it's different in BO2 and AW. Regarding the damage rules, take it to a forum if you feel it's necessary. --Ultimate94ninja (talk) 14:02, January 31, 2015 (UTC)

RE: We need rollbacker
Sorry I didn't get to it soon enough. It seems like Dave took care of it. I've let him know of his error. If another user chooses to add that again, I will add a hidden message seen during editing that prohibits the adding of it to the trivia, hopefully stopping anyone from doing so further. 01:34, February 18, 2015 (UTC)


 * Also Rollback  02:07, February 18, 2015 (UTC)
 * "We need rollbacker" - You would make a good candidate for certain, and would benefit from the rights. 02:11, February 18, 2015 (UTC)

Image Names
please remember when uploading personal images to put [Personal_Didikins] in the front of the name. 02:29, February 23, 2015 (UTC)

no, it applies to all images you upload for personal use. now you know though so no problem. 02:33, February 23, 2015 (UTC)

true, it isnt the right mentallity. also if you have a hard time remembering it you could write it down or type it in into a notes program of some sort. 02:37, February 23, 2015 (UTC)

Unused File
The image you uploaded, was deleted/marked for deletion because it was unused.

Please ensure you are correctly using the images you upload to ensure they do not clog up the unused files space, as well checking our image policies to ensure they are being correctly uploaded.

You are still free to upload images, just make sure they are being correctly used.

Thanks!


 * 20:03, March 9, 2015 (UTC)
 * Yes. The personal image you uploaded had not been used for anything. So it was deleted. 10:32, March 10, 2015 (UTC)

RE:
I think I'll just go to the War Room about this then, see if we can have the policy changed for AW's case. I'd understand if this were any other CoD game (even BO2, where there were a lot more than just 3 damage profiles), but in AW where that second damage profile makes quite an impact on a weapon's performance, I think it should be noted. 04:28, March 11, 2015 (UTC)

RE:
At first I've undone your edit because the fact about the name was already there, not because it was not relevant. But looking at it, it seems that your fact was more developed that the already-existing one. So if you want, you may put your fact back in the page and delete the older one. 21:23, April 29, 2015 (UTC)

RE: M1 Irons
Oh, thanks for clarifying that, I had no clue. 01:38, May 5, 2015 (UTC)

Recent talk page warning
I saw that you warned an anon of uploading an image that doesn't conform to our standards, but the image wasn't even uploaded to the wiki. That policy only applies to images directly uploaded to the wiki, not external images used simply to show a point on a talk page. 21:32, May 6, 2015 (UTC)

Damage values
Even if the numbers are the same, you should put in all the values since they're subject to change (the only time you don't put in all three values are for Sniper Rifles, since they don't even have any damage drop, and Shotguns, since they don't use their third damage value). 23:20, May 8, 2015 (UTC)

RE:
Hey, thanks for adding hyperlinks in some of my recent edits, I'm working on a tablet so it is quite difficult for me to do so.

Regards.

RE: Ark
No, they haven't reported it, nor have I been able to find anything else about the map name. The image seems legit, but I'm not sure. I'll just leave it until someone like Sam or Ninja sees it. 04:46, May 15, 2015 (UTC)

Damage
In response to your question to DremYolLok, putting simply "34-33" does not guarantee that it does 33 at mid-range; it could also mean that it does 34, which is not the case. --Ultimate94ninja (talk) 08:46, May 15, 2015 (UTC)


 * It's not even that really. It's more of the fact that they're subject to change at any moment, really (and the MK14 itself is an example of that, because of the recent min damage change). 11:22, May 15, 2015 (UTC)


 * If it's subject to change at any moment, then why not just change it when it actually changes, instead of now? As it currently stands, the MK14 in Advanced Warfare will deal either 34 or 33 damage sans multipliers or bullet penetration factors. Wouldn't placing the third value to denote 33 damage just be redundant? The only real thing you'd need to do is change the range numbers to reflect upon the fact that it has two separate damage values, instead of listing two range values for three damage values, one of them being a duplicate number. (PS: I will be responding on my own talk page for this discussion due to multiple people discussing this). Didikins (talk) 14:03, May 15, 2015 (UTC)
 * This is why I suggested we use static numbers and not ranges. As Didkins states, it's redundant to have a damage range of 3 numbers when there's only 2 values. 14:32, May 15, 2015 (UTC)


 * As it seems, the decision seems a bit split here. Where do you guys wish to go with this? I personally think displaying the damage as 34-33, and displaying the range simply as 650 to denote the 34 damage range suffices. Or leave it at 34-33-33, and displaying the range as 650 for the 34 damage range, and 1700 for the first 33 damage range? Didikins (talk) 14:59, May 15, 2015 (UTC)

RE:User
I don't have any solid evidence that user is sockpuppeting. Furthermore, technically logging out and using your IP isn't sockpuppetting. 20:47, May 15, 2015 (UTC)
