 * Right on, its nice to see some people working on the site. I want to get it up and moving, as Call of Duty is my favourite series! Creepydude 21:54, 21 November 2008 (UTC)

RE: I needs help! Please!
In case you haven't noticed, I'm not active.

But to answer your question, such a thing normally isn't done on a wiki. I guess, you could just somehow incorporate the search keywords into the article somehow. That might help. 01:26, 8 December 2008 (UTC)

Sysop
If you want, you could nominate (either yourself or someone else) for being a new sysop (system operator, the fancy term for administrator) at Call of Duty Wiki:Requests for adminship. If there is a general agreement, just message me up again and I'll sysop them.

A new admin would probably be more reliable than an inactive guy like me. 22:12, 8 December 2008 (UTC)

Adminship
I think we should both be admins. You've done a great job so far, and I don't see why you shouldn't be admin as well. Darkman 4 02:56, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

Your Signature
In case you haven't noticed, you have an unclosed tag in your signature that is affecting everything else after your sig. Could you please fix this. Thank you. Joey -  Talk Contribs 01:35, 10 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Ok, thanks, I was wondering what this was... I was trying to pinpoint what it was.
 * Ok, is this better?   M/Sgt. Creepydude  Sniper   Say Some'at Here!

Actually, you didn't fully fix your signature, as the bottom tags for the cat we're interfering with the CSS's knowledge, and the parts became unknown for the Wiki interface causing the problem. But now it should be fixed. Anyways, I'm busy now, but tomorrow I'll go through your edits and past conversations with other users to determine your maturity and all that stuff. My biggest concern though, at this point is if you have enough edits. Anyways, I'm just one vote, and even though I may appear as a new user here, let me assure you that this is not my first wiki. I've been around the block a few times, and sometimes need to check into anyone that wants adminship too early. Good day. Joey -  Talk Contribs 06:32, 10 December 2008 (UTC)

Re
Your now user of the month I guess. If you need to leave me a message do it on my talk at the runescape wiki please.--20:15, 10 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Wow awesome! Thanks man, and sure, I will.    M/Sgt. Creepydude  Sniper   Say Some'at Here!  20:44, 10 December 2008 (UTC)

RE: Sysop
Sysops can vote on who becomes a sysop, just like everyone else. On some wikis, only admins can vote on who becomes a sysop. Rather tyrranical... I'm just not trying to get back into the community. I already have a few more wikis to contribute to. Adding this would just make it harder.

Oh, with votes, you're supposed to give reasons why they should be sysopped. Just just signing your name. :P 23:40, 10 December 2008 (UTC)
 * To add to what Chia said you may both run at the same time just under separate headings. I'm trying to get back into the community, so at least we have one active admin if your RFAs fail.--00:22, 11 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Yes, I will post a message on the site to let users know. I am correcting the RFAs that we currently have. Once they are up you must post under my post saying you accept the nomination and then we usually have a 2 week voting period on it. I am also considering asking Chia for buruecrat status since he intends to be inactive. The corrected nominations should be finished in the next 10 to 15 minutes so please take a look.--00:32, 11 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Ok I have corrected them. Under each the nominee must post something similar to the following: "I Creepydude hereby accept this nomination. I promise to follow all the guidelines of the wiki and to not make decisions without proper consideration."--00:37, 11 December 2008 (UTC)
 * It would be best to allow him to recast his vote.--01:24, 11 December 2008 (UTC)
 * I didn't have the page open at the time so I was estimating. Feel free to change it--01:28, 11 December 2008 (UTC)

Your Adminship and Kiefer Sutherland's Page

 * I made sure to vote for you, and I have been editing on some sort of Wikipedia site since 2005, thre years, almost four now. :D

And thanks for the comment about Kiefer's page, it's my favorite actor, so I tried to do a good job. :) Roger Murtaugh 03:19, 11 December 2008 (UTC)


 * Alright, sounds good haha, but I'm sure you'll get it. :D Roger Murtaugh 03:21, 11 December 2008 (UTC)


 * I saw your edit, yeah, it's been a good three years so far. :D Roger Murtaugh 03:30, 11 December 2008 (UTC)

Re: UoTM and Sig
The sidebar has been changed and thanks for fixing my sig, that date box thing was bothering me like crazy.--10:28, 11 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Edit- apparently I am not allowed to edit the sidebar. It must be set to bcrats or wikia staff only. I'll message Angela and Richard to see if they can change it--10:30, 11 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Edit again- According to UBerfuzzy that list is not even ditable by wikia staff. It is randomly generated based on edit count--11:00, 11 December 2008 (UTC)

re
I'm not good with all that stuff. I suggest bringing the issue up with a helper such as Richard. As for an area to discuss bans our wiki is to small to have such an area. Vandalism is reported on an admins talk page and then proper actions are taken. If it is an established user I tend to leave them a message telling them they have been banned and tell them if they want to appeal then we may discuss it on their talk page. If we ever have 50 or so active users then a page for reporting vandalism should be created.--20:21, 11 December 2008 (UTC)

Gun Chart
I've extracted the gun data, and it matches that guy's charts. I can't figure out the recoil data, but everything else on his chart matches what I've found, so I trust his info on the TT33.. Darkman 4 16:45, 12 December 2008 (UTC)
 * eh, it happens. In CoD4, the M1911 is almost useless, as it does the same amount of damage as the USP, but has a smaller magazine and slightly less recoil. Darkman 4 16:50, 12 December 2008 (UTC)

Licensing
I don't really care about it, but tag your game images as fair-use in case somebody decides to be anal about the image licenses. Darkman 4 16:59, 12 December 2008 (UTC)

re
I have my sig in a template so when I want to sign my name i just type out the template.--20:17, 12 December 2008 (UTC)

RE: I'm Curious...
I honestly don't know you enough, nor have I done the research, to know if you're worthy of adminship. I cannot support, but I do not want to hinder your chances by voting with an oppose or neutral. 22:02, 12 December 2008 (UTC)

New WaW Gun Pics Up
Just wanna let you know that I've uploaded and added pics of almost every gun in World at War. The only ones I'm missing are the Ray Gun, DP28 and 357 Magnum. Darkman 4 02:37, 13 December 2008 (UTC)

RE:Adminship
I think there are a few reasons why you may be trying to become an admin too early. An admin's edit count needs to be somewhat greater than the group of regular users, and I don't see that with your edits. Second, I think you may be a little new/immature to apply at the moment. Your inexperience may get into the way of your duties. I don't think you will vandalize, and I have connections to have you removed with minutes of you vandalizing the site, but that is besides the point. This wiki is somewhat abandoned, or at least when I started to come, and there are only a few users who are active, but not all of them deserve adminship. I personally have no intentions to become an admin here, it isn't in my grand plan, I just dropped by here during one night in which I was bored of the other wikis I was on. There are many things this wiki needs, but a bunch of new admins really isn't it. A good wiki needs a balance of users, and admins. And just by looking at what you have done so far, I get the feeling you are just a little too anxious to become a sysop, and are applying too early. Personal feelings aside, you probably need to be in the community a little longer to get more experienced with everything. But, once again, this is just my opinion based o nwhat I have seen in your edits. Joey -  Talk Contribs 22:57, 13 December 2008 (UTC)

re
I see nothing wrong with the page. If the problems persists try clearing your cookies and refreshing your cache.--01:11, 14 December 2008 (UTC)

Re: Recent forum discussion
Do you mean MediaWiki:Sitenotice? This is a site-wide message where you can add notices and stuff which every user can see. For IP addresses, this is MediaWiki:Anonnotice.--Richardtalk 19:26, 14 December 2008 (UTC)

Re 900 articles
Sweet, I can't wait till we hit a thousand. I'm going to have a CoD:WaW fest all night.--10:25, 17 December 2008 (UTC)

Desert Eagle and category move
DE is now protected and I'll give the category move a shot, never tried moving one before. Also nice sig, I like the way it looks now--10:26, 18 December 2008 (UTC)

Re
Thanks for the congrats, yours is still open. If you try getting the neutral guy to change to a support then maybe it will pass. --17:17, 20 December 2008 (UTC)

Vandal
I protected the page and blocked him for one day. Hopefully that'll teach him a lesson. Darkman 4 23:28, 21 December 2008 (UTC)

RFA
There has been no response from Chia so I have deemed your RFA sucessful. You are now a Sysop. Congratulations. Also pleased be warned that due to the questions raised against you, your actions will be closely monitored. Good luck,--14:03, 24 December 2008 (UTC)

Merry Christmas to you to--15:47, 24 December 2008 (UTC)

Ban
Please ban the ip address 66.229.133.124 for inserting inappropriate material into articles. All vandalism has been reverted. Thank you, I Ross I
