Mess ups
Are you the one who keeps messing everything up? If you are, you've created one hell of a mess for me. If you aren't, tell me who is. 17:47, 2010 January 16


 * Replied in User talk:Interforce

Sorry
I'm trying to find someone who keeps leaving a bunch of sexually explicit and otherwise disturbing content all over this wiki and I want to clean it up.


 * It's okay. :) The article was written long ago and it is hard to find who started it. Basically, it is due to the policy which keeps the funny. -- TX55   TALK  14:53, January 17, 2010 (UTC)

Pictures
How could i post a picture correctly and why is it when i post a picture in protoforms it says you can't upload pictures in this wiki?--Sideswipe 555 16:25, January 30, 2010 (UTC)sideswipe_555

Please visit Project:Images for more information. :) -- TX55   TALK  16:47, January 30, 2010 (UTC)
 * 1) You should upload an image with a good quality.
 * 2) The image name should be well named.
 * 3) Do not upload images which already exist. (The system should have notify you when uploading, unless you click the "Ignore any warnings".
 * 4) Do not upload any image which is from a leak or stolen product, including CAM film.


 * Thanks. 07:14, 2010 January 31


 * You're welcome. :) -- TX55   TALK  07:34, January 31, 2010 (UTC)

Batteries
I realize that this is a really minor detail, but do you think we should include a page about the batteries that are included with some of the more recent figures? I ask because I have about six or seven figures that came with batteries included (Optimal Optimus, Beast Machines Supreme Cheetor, '07 Premium Series Leader Class Optimus Prime and Megatron, RotF Leader Class Optimus Prime and Megatron), and thus far, I've only had to change the batteries in one of them ('07 Megatron). These batteries have a remarkably long shelf life in general. Your thoughts? Xeno the Hedgehog 15:33, February 8, 2010 (UTC)


 * You mean creating a page "Battery". Sure, I don't see any reason say why not. IIRC, anything related to the Transformers brand can be created as a page as long as it works/makes sense. :D -- TX55   TALK  16:16, February 8, 2010 (UTC)


 * Very well then. However, as I am inexperienced and unskilled at writing in the standard page layout, I would appreciate it if someone could walk me through the process. Xeno the Hedgehog 18:03, February 8, 2010 (UTC)


 * You can start the page and I will try as much as I can to help with it. :-) -- TX55   TALK  03:13, February 9, 2010 (UTC)

Hello!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My username is Grimlock1. I think its pretty cool seeing someone else who thinks Grimlock is awsome! Im fairly new here and just wanted to tell you something. now, I do not mean this in a harsh way, in fact if anything I have great respect for you considering all of the edits you have done, I was the one who kept changing the quote on the Grimlock page. It was true information, and I just felt that cuss words shouldnt be used because I'm sure little kids see this site. so please, {picture me smiling while saying this} dont use cuss words in your edits. I dont want to be a bother, but I'm just saying this for the little kids who view this site.

PS: over 21,000 edits?! thats awsome!!!17:53, 2010 February 28


 * Welcome to this site. :D The quote is kept because it reflect Grimlock's strength and character in most of the continuity. (And "badass" isn't quite a curse in some way.) While the Movie quote gets removed because, well, Grimlock is actually "lack of intelligence" in cartoon continuity. As for the edit counts, most of them are just maintaining/patrolling edit since I've not work here for a while. :-) -- TX55   TALK  18:06, February 28, 2010 (UTC)

Should some things that are correct be edited?
Should some things that are Grammatically correct and free of spelling errors but extreemly confusing be edited? for example, on the Alpha Trion (G1) page, first paragraph, the way its written almost makes it lok like he had relations with himsef. it took me a minute to realize what it was saying.---Grimlock1 23:36, March 1, 2010 (UTC)Grimlock1


 * Yes, those problems such as grammar, typo, or spelling should be correct on sight. :D -- TX55   TALK  03:31, March 2, 2010 (UTC)

Getting Back Old Profiles
Okay I am actually User: Jetblast but I seem to have lost my passcode. I did not place an e-mail address down so I am wondering if it is possible to revreave te passcode another way or if by deleting the account then starting a new one backup under the original name could work. Please reply when possible. Thank you. Rift Fleet 06:00, March 9, 2010 (UTC)


 * Hi, actually I have no right about the account. You can contact wikia staff for help. :-D -- TX55   TALK </SUP> 14:19, March 9, 2010 (UTC)

Won't let me submit the edit
I'm trying to edit the talk page for the Bayformers article, and for some reason every time I click "save page" it instead acts as if I had clicked "preview". What gives? Xeno the Hedgehog 11:51, March 11, 2010 (UTC)
 * Nevermind, it just started to let me submit again. Xeno the Hedgehog 11:51, March 11, 2010 (UTC)

Thanks
thanks for cleaning up the Ironhide thing, i geuss i still need to laern a bit more about making edits, you see i found that picture and i noticed there wasnt one of it on Ironhide's page, but when i put it on i just got messed up, no matter how long i tried  still couldnt do it i just gave up in the end, so thanks again. m.n 10:20, April 6, 2010 (UTC)


 * You're welcome. Just be careful and be sure to follow the rules next time. :D -- TX55   TALK </SUP> 15:46, April 6, 2010 (UTC)

WHY!
why did you get rid of the pictures i put on the war for cybertron article, it doesnt have any pictures on there now, answer please! 15:09, 2010 April 8


 * Please, sign your posts with four ~'s. In response to your question, perhaps the pics didn't follow our guidelines for image use. Did you provide a source for the images? Were they officially licensed, or were they just fanart or other material of similar nature? Was the page layout disrupted by the addition of said images? were they uploaded as jpegs, or were they a different format? Were they too large? Were they low-resolution and subsequently appeared pixelated on the screen? Did the pics in question actually pertain to "War for Cybertron", or were they just taken from any random series? I could go on, but we'd be here all day. Xeno the Hedgehog 15:50, April 8, 2010 (UTC)


 * First, the layout is disrupted. Second and the most of all, the page is still in development, so I move them to the talk page for now. -- TX55   TALK </SUP> 18:13, April 8, 2010 (UTC)

oh
right, ok u should have told me though, but thanks for the replym.n 19:13, April 8, 2010 (UTC)


 * You're welcome. :) -- TX55   TALK </SUP> 19:15, April 8, 2010 (UTC)

Hey,
i just made a an article about Tracks (Animated) and i wondered if you or any one you know could help me get some info on there, thanks.m.n 15:18, April 9, 2010 (UTC)(aka trypticon95)


 * Sure. :) -- TX55   TALK </SUP> 16:19, April 9, 2010 (UTC)


 * Thanx, it'll be a great help. m.n 21:08, April 9, 2010 (UTC)

Question about a technicality
I frequent a website called Ben's World of Transformers (BWTF), which is run by Ben Yee, if I'm not mistaken. the site features toy and series reviews, screenshots, tech specs, pretty much any info that a TF enthusiast could ever want to know, about every TF series there has ever been. Taking into account that Mr. Yee works for HasTak, does that mean that BWTF is an official source? On a related note, do wikia rules and guidelines allow the use of media from that site? Xeno the Hedgehog 04:13, April 10, 2010 (UTC)
 * I would like to ask the same questions regarding Alex Milne's DeviantArt gallery (listed under the username markerguru). Xeno the Hedgehog 04:40, April 10, 2010 (UTC)

It depends. If the picture is officially released on media such as websites or books (including magazine), then the picture is official. :) -- TX55   TALK </SUP> 11:26, April 10, 2010 (UTC)


 * Funny story; I recently left a comment on Mr. Milne's page asking if he'd be willing to post some of his drawings in his own article, and he said he was okay with it, "as long as it doesn't say anything bad or anything". I replied back to him with the necessary keywords he would need to find the wiki and the article, and requested that he read it before agreeing to anything. depending on his next response, I may get him in touch with you so that you may discuss which images go into the article and how they are implemented. Like I've said before, I'd do it myself, but every time I've tried to make such edits in the past, I ended up screwing up the page layout. Besides, seeing as you're the authority here, I think it makes more sense for you to be directly involved in this situation. I'll let you know what he says about the article. Xeno the Hedgehog 08:23, April 11, 2010 (UTC)


 * Sound interesting, looking forward to good news. :D As for the layout, I think maybe I can help you with it. -- TX55   TALK </SUP> 15:40, April 11, 2010 (UTC)


 * He gave the okay. I asked him to contact you and gave him step-by-step instructions for how to do so. I also told him that it's probably better if he uploads the images himself, to ensure that they are properly cited, and that if he ever wanted us to remove the images, we would do so. Long story short, there's a good chance that Mr. Milne will soon contact you. If this works out well enough, I might try to get in touch with Ben Yee as well. Xeno the Hedgehog 03:10, April 12, 2010 (UTC)

How
how do i name an image and make a descriptionm.n 08:00, April 10, 2010 (UTC)


 * READ the information box in your talk page for naming rule. AND, for description, just type the description in the box when uploading or use edit button on an image page.
 * And, no offense, CAN you not type every letter in lower case? For instance, it should be "How do I name an image and make a description . " Thanks. -- TX55   TALK </SUP> 10:42, April 10, 2010 (UTC)

Why have you taken down all the pictures Ive uploaded? m.n 11:19, April 10, 2010 (UTC)


 * Why don't you read the reason of deletion? Because they are DUPLICATE files or fan art and I'm clean up mess for you. -- TX55   TALK </SUP> 11:20, April 10, 2010 (UTC)

oh,m.n 19:03, April 10, 2010 (UTC)

uploading
I think I might have finnaly figured out how to upload pictures properly, the latest one is a picture of TFA Swindle from the Allspark allminac, it shows all his weapon capabilities, i put on the Swindle page can you check it out to see if its ok. Trypticon95 09:27, April 13, 2010 (UTC)

Almost there. :D However:
 * Page "Swindle (Animated)"
 * This image should not use as the main picture since it is a raw material (uncropped, unedit, etc)


 * Image
 * It should be "Tfa" instead of "TFA"
 * The description should be look like this.
 * You should use a suitable copyright template, not Template:PD.


 * Ps. You should be careful not to make any typo.

-- TX55   TALK </SUP> 10:27, April 13, 2010 (UTC)


 * O.K thanx for the tips, I'll get it in the end, Trypticon95 10:35, April 13, 2010 (UTC)


 * You're welcome. :) -- TX55   TALK </SUP> 11:31, April 13, 2010 (UTC)

WHAT!
What do you mean mess?! I've done every thing you've told me to and your still not happy!Trypticon95 19:49, April 14, 2010 (UTC)


 * I apologize if I've been too harsh. But, have you really read Transformers Wiki:Images? Every time after I "fix" those picture, you still keep uploading out of standard. And I've told you to be careful when uploading and following the standard. I've been working on almost every file you upload.


 * Naming - I've moved lots images you uploaded, such as:
 * 1) File:Tfa-Warpath-promo.jpg  to File:Tfa-warpath-1.jpg
 * 2) File:Tfa Perceptor design.jpg to File:Tfa-perceptor-design.jpg
 * 3) File:Rodimus-prime-Transformers-Animated-.jpg to File:Tfa-rodimusprime-head.jpg
 * 4) File:TFA Rodimus minor toy1.jpg to File:Tfa-rodimusminor-toy-deluxe-1.jpg
 * 5) File:TFA Rodimus minor toy1.jpg to File:Tfa-rodimusminor-toy-deluxe-2.jpg
 * 6) File:TFA-Flareup-promo-colors.jpg to File:Tfa-flareup-1.jpg

Also, take some TFA screen caps for example, you didn't write down which episode they came from.

 * http://transformers.wikia.com/index.php?title=File:Grandus_Flareup_Fanzon-ep40.png&diff=prev&oldid=333649


 * Copyright info
 * You should not choose any Licensing but "None selected" when uploading. After uploading, click edit button and erase " " before adding a right image template.
 * This is how it should look like:
 * Screen cap
 * Character model

Now, do you understand this time? -- TX55   TALK </SUP> 02:00, April 15, 2010 (UTC)


 * well sort of, but those ones you mentioned I uploaded before I new how to do it properly,oh one more thing ie found some new pictures of War for Cybertron Breakdown & Airraid shall I upload, or not because i cant put any thing on the article,Trypticon95 08:15, April 15, 2010 (UTC)


 * Um, no. many of those pic I mentioned are uploaded yesterday or in recent 1 or 2 days. And, I'm sorry but, can you rephrase or rewrite your message. It's kind of, um, I'm not sure what to say. Such as it is "knew" not "new".
 * As for the WFC images you mentioned, well, if you want to upload, be sure to follow the standard, and do not forget those I mentioned above. Thank you. :) -- TX55   TALK </SUP> 08:28, April 15, 2010 (UTC)

-- TX55   TALK </SUP> 08:28, April 15, 2010 (UTC)

I won't help anymore.
Alright. I won't add anymore pictures to any more of your wikis. I'll even stop trying to create new wikis. You can do those yourself. And I thought I was putting those videos in order. It's just not that easy. If this letter offends you, then go ahead and ban me, and thank you for your time.

TFA Japanese Intro
TX55,

Would you by any chance know the name of the song to that TOTALLY KICK-ASS, PURE-AWESOME japanese intro to Transformers: Animated?

 * "TRANSFORMERS EVO." by JAM Project. :D -- TX55   TALK </SUP> 06:53, April 18, 2010 (UTC)

Thank god!
i saw you put the Transformers war for Cybertron page back to normal, whoever made the changes ruined it,

Trypticon95 18:16, April 21, 2010 (UTC)


 * You're welcome. :) Actually, the user just create a page "Transformers: War for Cybertron", which is different from "War for Cybertron", which already exists. So I just merged two page with the good one over the other. -- TX55   TALK </SUP> 08:18, April 22, 2010 (UTC)

I'm not who you think.
You're confusing me with someone else. Darkstreet580 23:10, April 26, 2010 (UTC)

Beautification of your main page
Hi there, I'm Game widow, a Wikia helper on the Gaming team and I have a proposal for beautifying your main page. I have a mockup in place on my sandbox wiki here, if you are curious. The mockup on that wiki has fixed width everywhere, but if you prefer your articles to remain full screen width, that can accommodated as well. I've recreated the Sam Witwicky page so you can get an idea of what a fixed with article page would look like as well. Let me know what you think :) — Game widow 17:58, April 29, 2010 (UTC)


 * Thank you, I like the new design created by you! It does surely look pretty. :D By the way, can you keep the Main logo image (the one on the left of the top) remain unchanged? -- TX55  <SUP> TALK </SUP> 02:30, April 30, 2010 (UTC)


 * I can absolutely retain your existing logo if you prefer it :) — Game widow 12:13, April 30, 2010 (UTC)


 * Thank you! :D -- TX55  <SUP> TALK </SUP> 13:52, April 30, 2010 (UTC)
 * Hi again, since Xeno doesn't seem to care, shall i deal with you on this issue? and given that, i'm just waiting for the image cache to clear and then you should be able to see the new skin, with your logo on my sandbox wiki. I'll give you a shout when it's updated :), then you can let me know if there are any other tweaks you'd like, and barring that, we'll proceed — Game widow <SUP> TALK </SUP> 16:48, April 30, 2010 (UTC)
 * All set! :) — Game widow <SUP> TALK </SUP> 17:26, April 30, 2010 (UTC)


 * Thanks for notice. :D Oh, something remind me, can you replace Movie Megatron, Movie Soundwave, Movie Sideswipe, and Movie The Fallen with G1 Optimus Prime, G1 Grimlock, G1 Megatron, and G1 Soundwave, since they are significant characters in the original series. Thank you. ;-D -- TX55  <SUP> TALK </SUP> 01:34, May 1, 2010 (UTC)
 * Sure, can you give me links to images i can use? or do you simply mean to have the links point to the G1 pages ? — Game widow 10:34, May 2, 2010 (UTC)

Yes, as following shows: -- TX55  <SUP> TALK </SUP> 11:01, May 2, 2010 (UTC)
 * Optimus Prime (G1)
 * Grimlock (G1)
 * Megatron (G1)
 * Soundwave (G1)
 * thanks! new images in place, check it out :)— Game widow 00:18, May 3, 2010 (UTC)


 * Great, thanks for help. :D Oh, and what I mentioned above is to replace Movie Megatron, Movie Soundwave, Movie Sideswipe, and Movie The Fallen so that would be:

Optimus Prime (G1) | Grimlock (G1) | Megatron (G1) | Soundwave (G1)| Optimus Prime (Movie)| Bumblebee (Movie) | Sam Witwicky | Mikaela Banes
 * Can you help me with that? Thanks again. ;-D -- TX55  <SUP> TALK </SUP> 02:03, May 3, 2010 (UTC)


 * Better? — Game widow 13:26, May 3, 2010 (UTC)


 * This is exactly what I meant! Thank you very much, Appreciate!! ;-D -- TX55  <SUP> TALK </SUP> 14:44, May 3, 2010 (UTC)


 * Excellent! :) ... so now the next big decision. Do you want only the new main page to be fixed width, or the whole wiki?— Game widow 16:44, May 3, 2010 (UTC)


 * I'm sorry, I'm not familiar with the "be fixed width, or the whole wiki", can you explain it to me? Thank you. :D -- TX55  <SUP> TALK </SUP> 20:25, May 3, 2010 (UTC)


 * Sure thing! fixed width is what you see on that mock-up main page, the article area does not scale with the screen resolution, so no matter what that area (with the text and information) remains the same width. For the new main page, that's the format, however, you have a choice to have that format apply to all the pages on your wiki -- which would mean that you see bumblebee and jazz flanking every page -- or only to the main page, in which case, they would be covered up by the articles. so it boils down to whether or not you want to see them peeking out around every wiki page, or just the main page. To give you some idea, i recreated the Samuel Witwicky page on my test wiki, have a look there and see what you think. If you like it, we can have the whole wiki use that format, otherwise we can make just the new home page look that way — Game widow 21:36, May 3, 2010 (UTC)


 * I think fixed width is good because most of the contents layout are edited withing 1024px environment. As for the skin, is it possible to make only selected pages (in addition to main page) with new skin? Because I want to make the featured articles look special since they are featured. :D -- TX55  <SUP> TALK </SUP> 08:46, May 4, 2010 (UTC)


 * Hmmm, i'll looking into it, but that might be beyond what we can do. I'll try a few tests and get back to you later today. — Game widow 13:21, May 4, 2010 (UTC)


 * Got it, I'll keep my fingers cross for you. ;) -- TX55  <SUP> TALK </SUP> 16:41, May 4, 2010 (UTC)


 * Good news :) Yes, it's possible, but it would be up to you to keep it updated once i set it up. For now, which pages did you have in mind ? — Game widow 22:30, May 4, 2010 (UTC)

That's really a good news. In addition to main page, I'd like to have all featured articles in my mind. I've changed my mind (I want to keep this new skin), is it possible to give the following page the old skin? Thanks. :D
 * Revenge of the Fallen (film)
 * Revenge of the Fallen (franchise)
 * Samuel Witwicky
 * Mikaela Banes
 * All Spark (Movie)

By the way, I've notice the link color has changed (I'm sorry I didn't notice during the test page). Is any chance we can change the Wikipedia link, inter Wikia link, and external link's color different from a normal link? Also, clicked links color remain the same color before being clicked. In addition, I think the black frame of a image like this can be changed back to none.



-- TX55  <SUP> TALK </SUP> 02:45, May 5, 2010 (UTC)


 * Good morning, we seem to be both trying to make changes at the same time this morning. How about you let me know when you are done and then we'll see what's left to do? As for the links, certainly they can be (and have been) changed, but if you have some preferred colours, please let me know. — Game widow 10:31, May 5, 2010 (UTC)


 * Good morning. :D I've done by far. I'd like to keep the link colors as original (that is, before change), except for the inter-wikia links, which I'm considering to use LightSeaGreen(#20B2AA). Also, I noticed that admin and bot accounts' custom color in the RecentChanges page has been overridden as well (however, the bold text is still there). Is it possible to make the color shown again? Thank you. :-D -- TX55  <SUP> TALK </SUP> 13:36, May 5, 2010 (UTC)


 * Howdy, ok, i think i've restored the previous link colours, but please let me know if i haven't (i might be missing a few "!important" calls here and there). Interwiki links should now be light sea green. I'm a little confused about the following, though:
 * Revenge of the Fallen (film)
 * Revenge of the Fallen (franchise)
 * Samuel Witwicky
 * Mikaela Banes
 * All Spark (Movie)


 * Do you mean that you'd like all articles (except the 5 listed) to have the new skin, and /only/ those 5 to keep the old skin? — Game widow 17:23, May 5, 2010 (UTC)


 * I've noticed the change of the text colors, Thank you! ;-D
 * By the way, is wikipedia link and inter-wikia link share same code and both types of links are interwiki link?
 * Yes, I'd like all articles (except the 6 listed Optimus Prime (Movie), which I missed to type it) and /only/ those 5 to keep the old skin. -- TX55  <SUP> TALK </SUP> 09:44, May 6, 2010 (UTC)
 * OK, i'm on it, but it might actually be tricker to keep the old skin for just a few, but i'll definitely see if i can do it -- i /should/ be able to :) and as for wikipedia and interwiki, i do think they are considered the same, but again, if i can make them different for you, i will — Game widow 18:43, May 6, 2010 (UTC)


 * Yep, it's possible :) and it's done — Game widow 19:08, May 6, 2010 (UTC)
 * Upon further inspection, maybe not! it worked on my test wiki, i'll keep working on it — Game widow 19:10, May 6, 2010 (UTC)
 * So it works fine if the page title has no parentheses in it, like Samuel Witwicky and Mikaela Banes, but all the entries with (film), etc don't seem to work ... i'm trying to find a workaround — Game widow 19:24, May 6, 2010 (UTC)
 * Sorted :) — Game widow 19:32, May 6, 2010 (UTC)
 * Me again! i think i've come up with a way to make wikipedia links a different colour, but i still need to test it. What colour would you want for that if i can do it ? — Game widow 19:48, May 6, 2010 (UTC)


 * Good to know that. :D I'd like the Wikipedia link color as same as the current external link color since Wikipedia link is a type of external link. ;) -- TX55  <SUP> TALK </SUP> 06:09, May 7, 2010 (UTC)
