Welcome
Hi, welcome to Dead Rising Wiki! Thanks for your edit to the User:Frank-West page.

Please leave a message on my talk page if I can help with anything! -- Anno1404 (Talk) 18:43, July 6, 2010

Rubber band
The rubber band thing did not work for me either. Regarding your custom sig, let me play with it. Anno1404 02:59, August 2, 2010 (UTC)
 * subpage on every wiki--wow, good question, let me see what other editors have done. Anno1404 03:00, August 2, 2010 (UTC)
 * see your talk page on http://deadrising.wikia.com best to not use a template. :) Anno1404 03:06, August 2, 2010 (UTC)
 * damn, that is because there is a limit to how much you can put in that box, that is why people use templates. I don't know what to tell you, except for cutting down the other material in your name. let me play with it. Anno1404 03:11, August 2, 2010 (UTC)
 * Well thats great. Glad I could help. now on to some complex Wikipedia:Help:Magic Words not fun :/ Anno1404 03:37, August 2, 2010 (UTC)

Suggestions

 * Hey, Frank here. I responded on community central. Do you have Xbox LIVE? If so, we could communicate through there without the messages being able to be read by anyone else. If not, I could always try and find a chatroom of some sort.

Xboxlive id: gottohellxbox

I can go to IRC tonight if you wish.


 * "Is that message you left me unfinished? I'd like to see the end of it. =/ anyway, even if I figured out what supported wikia, I wouldn't be able to do anything to it. I mean, I just don't think I'd be able to have an impact, even if I figured out a way to do it. I suppose you are right though, we are having somewhat of an impact as it is. I have no idea what has caused wikia to back off before. I really, REALLY am going to need help from you if I'm gonna try and stop this, as well as help from other users. I have apologized to the staff and fixed my comments, as well as left a new one. "

Leaving a question unanswered is often more effective than answering it :) It naturally gets a person thinking.

It appears at this point we, wikia users cannot stop this new skin.

more in a second, as you seem eager to talk, and I want to give you something to read instead of waiting. Anno1404 19:22, October 5, 2010 (UTC)

Compromise
"I think the Oasis reaction is a little more like the Quartz reaction I remember. Monaco was a compromise Wikia made after the reaction to Quartz."
 * Compromise is possible

I believe wikia is changing to get more ad revenue. See:
 * ad revenue is behind this change
 * 

(You may need to scroll down to the next page to see this great post).

changing the site for more ad money is okay with me, it is the other changes that go along with it I don't like.


 * if enough sites say they will leave, they will compromise

If the big revenue sites decide to leave and really intend to leave, they will stop. From wikipedia:


 * As of June 2009, wikia.com's Alexa traffic ranking was 290.[2] Yu-Gi-Oh!, Fallout, Star Wars and Tibia fan wikis each account for around 10% of this traffic.[2] The Wikia-hosted Final Fantasy XI wiki FFXIclopedia,[20] Star Trek wiki Memory Alpha[21] and World of Warcraft wiki WoWWiki[22] currently use separate domain names, as they were founded separately from Wikia. WoWWiki sees roughly 20% the amount of global internet users compared to all of wikia.com.[2][22]


 * what you can do

Since the staff won't listen, here is what YOU could do. Read most of these debates, picking out the very best and most influential arguments. Create your own short (no longer than two paragraph) argument using all of the BEST of these arguments. Let me and others like turtle read it over first to offer suggestions, etc.

Go to these big sites, and find the oasis discussion, do not start your own discussion. If you cannot find the oasis discussion, ask prominent editors were the oasis discussion is, after lavishly praising their dedication and how wonderful the site looks (extra points for finding an article they have recently edited a lot, and praising this finding commonality in your gaming interests).

Post this argument. Later, if the discussion is positive, give people ideas of where to go (AWA) and alternatives to wikia, letting us read the comments first before you post them. You are an outsider so don't post more than once every two days.

There you have it.


 * "No man can struggle with advantage against the spirit of his age and country, and however powerful a man may be, it is hard for him to make his contemporaries share feelings and ideas which run counter to the general run of their hopes and desires." --Alexis de Tocqueville


 * No man can struggle

We will never be able to change anything if it is us alone feeling the way we do. But if the spirit of the entire community is against this skin, we can and will change things. Anno1404 19:35, October 5, 2010 (UTC)


 * 1) Why the extreme praise? To butter them up so they'll agree with me more?
 * 2) I'd need some help with the finding and organizing arguments thing.

Overall, this seems like a long shot... But it also seems like if we do it right then it WILL do something. And for the Xbox thing, I figured gottohellxbox was a joke to say you hated Xbox or something like that. Anyways I'll send a text over Xbox if it's important enough that it can't be said here. http://images.wikia.com/deadrising/images/3/36/P.png Frank - West  http://images.wikia.com/deadrising/images/3/36/P.png 19:44, October 5, 2010 (UTC)
 * RE: 1 Praise. set the tone. It is amazing what emotions certain words evoke. Try to be sincere. I am always sincere in my compliments. Words are free, they don't cost us a thing, but can give us multitudes in return.
 * Re: 2 Quite honestly, I am a little burned out with this kind of stuff. I spent five years on wikipedia digging. I am exhausted. When I dedicate myself to something it is never half assed. If I start digging, I will feel compelled to do more...
 * I suggested this, because I just felt like you needed a positive direction to move in, which would help filter that negative energy into a positive direction. I truly feel if done right, it can have a positive influence against this skin.
 * Don't get me wrong, I will happily help you review and rewrite what you have found. And I will advise you every step of the way, but thoroughly researching a confrontational topic again just seems so draining to me.
 * you are welcome to text me, but I think we said everything we needed to here. But we can talk if you would like.
 * I think that xbox's layout is bad, and even worse for new users. I got that handle out of frustration two years ago.
 * that talkback thing is nice huh? Anno1404 20:23, October 5, 2010 (UTC)

gottohellxbox
I gave you my ID above, sorry I was not clear:
 * gottohellxbox

But this account does not have gold membership, someone else in the household does though. Anno1404 19:40, October 5, 2010 (UTC)

Let me know
Let me know what you write up, I will help along the way.

"What were you looking for on wikipedia that took five years?"

I was very unhappy with certain foreign policies when I first started editing wikipedia in 2005. these positions were not popular with some editors.

The past two years I have been involved in the policies of wikipedia. I finally left for good this summer.

Again let me know, anything beyond the base research. Anno1404 15:43, October 6, 2010 (UTC)

Fan art
Funny, have you seen this?

http://community.wikia.com/wiki/Forum:Anti-Wikia_Alliance#Fanart

Anno1404 15:49, October 6, 2010 (UTC)

Hosting this on AWA
I already messaged Turtle, asking him to email me, or give me an email he can be reached at. You can contact Air, or I will.

Nice job on the research. We need the argument to be convincing and yet sound neutral. this sound like a contradiction, but I have done it regularly on wikipedia.

Maybe instead of doing this alone, we can make this all a sub page of AWA. Or we can work on this as a team on a subpage of shoutwiki. The problem with posting this on shoutwiki is there is less traffic from wikia users, but that means shoutwiki is less conspicuous, and less chance of us getting in trouble. I think our necks are already out to be chopped, so we might as well go for broke and post it here.

This two paragraph posting on the largest wikis would have:
 * 1) An overview of why this skin is bad. (this will be the majority of the article)
 * 2) History of staff not listening to users up to today.
 * 3) How staff have caved to pressure in the past
 * 4) What each wikia can do to change this.
 * 5) What we want to change.

Throughout this 2 page paragraph, we can have links to a larger page with more information:
 * 1) A point by point argument why this skin is bad.
 * 2) Detailed history of the staff not listening to users in this transformation.
 * 3) Detailed history of the staff compromising because of complaints in the past.
 * 4) Detailed instructions on how each wikia can leave if they wish, and where to complain.
 * 5) List of what we want in this new skin.

This is a lot of work, but we can do it together as a wikia.

I am going to go ahead and let Air and Turtle no about this discussion we are having here, is that okay? Anno1404 19:03, October 6, 2010 (UTC)

Forum:Anti-Wikia_Alliance/Points_to_consider
http://community.wikia.com/wiki/Forum:Anti-Wikia_Alliance/Points_to_consider

The page is up.

I think I may have suggested and changed to much in other areas. So I fear the energetic rage of Air and turtle, which is great if it is pointed away from me towards the staff, may be turned on me (see the AWA comments page). Anno1404 20:03, October 6, 2010 (UTC)

fabulous. great job
nice job finding that stuff. I have been busy on this wiki. But I will spend a couple of hours on the skin thing too..

We need to flesh out then advertise:

http://community.wikia.com/wiki/Forum:Anti-Wikia_Alliance/Points_to_consider

...to those who share our views. I already started my version of what we could write to other wikias. We can incorporate what you have in that. You are welcome to change the page as you wish.

Some of the people who are so angry and so articulate can be contacted right now, if you would like, and asked to help us build this page.

Also I think contacting shoutwiki about this great opportunity for their site, and how we can work together to transfer as many wikis as possible. Maybe they can create a page which we can link too, warmly welcoming wikias and inviting them to come. Your welcome to do any of this. I may later.

I think the number one thing is contacting the founders of this forum. As predicted, they are kind of miffed at me changing the page they created. Maybe you would like to approach them and ask them for help with http://community.wikia.com/wiki/Forum:Anti-Wikia_Alliance/Points_to_consider, and get their opinion about it? Anno1404 19:22, October 7, 2010 (UTC)

join the dark side Luke
"You are immensely helpful and I sure as hell would not be able to do any of this without you. I simply can't figure out how to thank you enough. Anything else you need me to do, I'll do it. "

Become an admin and start editing here. :) J/K Anno1404 19:41, October 7, 2010 (UTC)

response

 * go ahead and contact the two AWA founders, for reasons I explained it is better you do it.
 * I will approach shoutwiki.
 * If after contacting the two founders, you want to start messaging those editors with the best comments, approach it as "your comments were incredible and articulate, I really agreed with everything you had to say. Can I ask your opinion on the AWA and the Points to consider page What should this group do now? What are your thoughts about this point. etc".
 * I think maybe you should avoid soliciting help from these editors bluntly. I think, if they are interested enough, they will join without you directly asking.
 * these are just rough thoughts, I will let you flesh them out. I trust your judgment. I don't think you should spend to much time on each editor. Anno1404 19:51, October 7, 2010 (UTC)

Yo,new guy, what up?
I'm the other admin here, Anno is the neat, tidy, correct and detailed guy, but it's a little gray for me. Me, I'm the dude that when he finds a stash of info, I go on a editing spree, not spam and stuff, but more of a, gotta get this all down before I forget. I like to put humor in my edits, descriptions, all that stuff, and almost-blank pages are my mortal enemy here. So, that's about me, now you know about my editing, how about yours? How do you do stuff? Oh, and hello! Mafia Mettaur 17:58, October 8, 2010 (UTC)

great comments
RE: http://community.wikia.com/wiki/User_blog:Sarah_Manley/Improving_Accessibility_on_Wikia

Your debate style has truly improved. I am impressed. Your arguments are very rational and convincing. You don't need me to tell you that, usually a person can tell if there comments are effective based on how many editors care to respond, and I see that many editors are responding positively to your comments. Nice job.

Note how, 4 days before Wikia skin is released, they have now shut down comments? Anno1404 22:39, October 28, 2010 (UTC)


 * if i were you i would completely delete your allegations against that other editor. :/ I hate when I do that. Anno1404 17:03, October 29, 2010 (UTC)

First award



 * S-s-ss... So shiny... XD Thanks Anno! http://images.wikia.com/deadrising/images/3/36/P.png Frank - West  http://images.wikia.com/deadrising/images/3/36/P.png 00:33, October 30, 2010 (UTC)

Interested in future cooperation?
I would like to explore any future cooperation with our two sites, deadrising.wikia.com and the new non-wikia wiki. The new non-wiki is live but is still being built. I was thinking of having an informal brainstorming chat, I want to hear what you envision the future of deadrising wikia and how we can help each other. The key word is "informal".

I was hoping to have an open real time discussion with you and any other deadrising wikia editors, preferably with IRC tonight (Wednesday) or on Thanksgiving.

If it is just you and I, that is fine. It would be nice if Mister could chat too. (I alerted him on his talk page about this posting) Other editors are welcome to join us and you can post something on deadrising if you wish, or we can initially just chat in a small group or one on one together.

Name a time you are available to talk, preferably tonight. Give me a time with a time zone (EST, CST, MST, PST). I am available after 7:30 PM EST and all thanksgiving day. Let me throw out 7:30 PM EST tonight (Wednesday).

Here is how to connect:


 * http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=deadrisingwikis

I suggest we pick a time to talk together, and if you wish to invite others, they can come if they can, but otherwise lets chat one on one. :) Again, key word is informal. I just want to hear what you think and shoot the bull.

Anno1404 15:12, November 24, 2010 (UTC)
 * anytime this weekend is good. How about 4 pm EST Saturday? Just me and you, if that is okay, I don't mind either way....
 * Lord, This new skin sure messed up my plans, as it probably did yours too. I read some of the things like the igneous button for same named items no longer work for your wiki too.
 * If it wasn't for this new skin, by this point I should have had my dead rising 2 flash map partially done, like this: http://dead-rising.wikia.com/wiki/Map I have hundreds of photos ready to upload, and there are dozens of guides out there I would like to integrate into the wiki, but the time table for that is all messed up too.
 * After 22 days I am finally, finally, going to be able to upload the remaining pages tonight. I already uploaded all 9,000 images. :/
 * But through it all I remember: I will never have to worry about the administration changing things again. In two years all of wikia will have to face another skin. The way the staff treats us is never going to change. Although this maybe your first involvement with the staff, this is my third, the first was over the gallery changes, and the second was over redirecting the hundreds of help pages.
 * When I am using that skin I feel like I have one arm tied behind my back, or like I am trying to work underwater. Only when I switch back to monobook do I feel normal again. Anno1404 03:02, November 26, 2010 (UTC)
 * hey i am on right now, i just got your message Anno1404 03:42, November 27, 2010 (UTC)
 * I am getting on right now. 3:25 EST. Anno1404 20:25, November 27, 2010 (UTC)

I will respond soon. Working hard on the site-- lots more work to go. Anno1404 14:53, November 30, 2010 (UTC)

how and when and why did he get blocked????

Mccray2013 16:30, December 3, 2010 (UTC)
 * He got blocked at the start of this week, because he was telling people that ShoutWiki has Monaco. The wikia staff blocked him because they don't want anyone to know that ShoutWiki has Monaco. http://images.wikia.com/deadrising/images/3/36/P.png Jax - Kenobi  http://images.wikia.com/deadrising/images/3/36/P.png 19:20, December 3, 2010 (UTC)

contacting editors
I have been banned for a third time from wikia, could you contact the following editors and let them know that we have moved giving a link to this wiki?

Anno1404 23:23, 19 December 2010 (UTC)

thank you
thanks for contacting editors on my old wikia.

it will be a couple of weeks before even all the big bugs are fixed. I am working on the small text, and everything else. All the bugs--it will be weeks.

BTW. We have IRC chat, but it needs to be set up to our own IRC chatgroup: Special:WebChat

everything is moved, we just need to merge. you can help with that.

Here is how to merge: Dead_rising_wiki/To_do_list also all the bugs and problems I have found. Feel free to add what you like.

Mister has already started editing here. Anno1404 05:49, 21 December 2010 (UTC)

temporary solution: You can maybe add a Mediawiki:Sitenotice explaining this.

regarding extensions
RE: "So... no more blogs, no more achievements, and no more wikia from now on, huh? "


 * Please write this for me:

RE: blogs

I have created a forum which is really good, and has more features than wikia blogs do, see: http://deadrisingwiki.com/wiki/Special:AWCforum/ It is not much to look at right now, but when I get some time, (or if one of the admins have the skills to help) I will make the forum look like this: http://childrenofstarclan.com/index.php?title=Special:AWCforum/st/id1274/#post_11778 The forum allows you to know who is online on the site at anytime.

We will also have liquidthreads, anyone who wants it on their talk page can add it. This feature is like the blogs, and when someone responds, you get a message a top with the "my talk" "watchlist" "mypreferences" that way threads can stay in one place. Try it out: http://liquidthreads.labs.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:LiquidThreads_testing again, it will be optional for your talk page. If enough people like it, we could make it site wide.

We also have IRC now, through http://deadrisingwiki.com/wiki/Special:WebChat you go to that page, and you can talk to people real time. eventually i would like to have it on the main page.

RE: achievements

Not wikipedia achievements, but shoutwiki has user levels, which we can add http://www.shoutwiki.com/wiki/Help:User_Levels I dont think many people like achievements, as it causes editors to grind for acheivements. But if the community wants them we can sure institute them. There are thousands of extensions available so something even better maybe available and it maybe possible to get the wikia achievements working for our site.

RE: wikia skin

The nice thing is that we now have a HUGE choice of skins, not just two which wikia offers, 10 skins in all! http://deadrisingwiki.com/wiki/Special:Preferences Also I would be happy to teach anyone how to edit their own skin options, so lets say you want a particular item removed, (like something in the toolbar) or the background darker when you edit, or some other color, you go to http://deadrisingwiki.com/wiki/User:YOURUSERNAME/monaco.css and change it.

Also there are customized buttons you can add, on wikia I had over 70 shortcut buttons which came up above the edit box. I pressed a button, and it typed a lot of text for me. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:Edit_toolbar

Thanks Frank. Anno1404 04:33, 23 December 2010 (UTC)

check your email
Like your opinion on something very important. Anno1404 03:29, 24 December 2010 (UTC)
 * I talked to Mister on Special:WebChat and he thought it was a good idea to promote User:OtherWorldBob to admin. I agree with what mister said: that otherworld will help out on the site so you wont mind.
 * OtherWorld's comments on Dead_rising_wiki/To_do_list show that he knows technical issues better than me. He continues to suggest fixes which I would have to go to other forums to ask about. As an admin, he can fix these problems ASAP. Anno1404 04:46, 24 December 2010 (UTC)

Go to http://deadrisingwiki.com/wiki/Special:AllPages

you will see the list of pages here, the blog comments are easy to pick out. Click one of those groups.

We are now going to get the names of all pages on this page, in table format.

Paste this list in Word, then change the list from a table to text.

Images
Hey Jax, can you go back through the pages you merged and add the images, for example, protester sign had this image, which was lost in merge:



Thanks. A 22:21, 5 January 2011 (UTC)

Thanks for the tip
Thanks for the tip Frank Jax. When I get the time and the computer, I'll try to edit more and not be the worthless admin I'm acting as right now. Great job on making decisions for the future of this wiki, you've really proved invaluable to the progress this wiki's making. Kudos to you, and I hope to see you some more in the future. -(The Yoshiman)

Hey Jax!

I am trying to make this forum as much like the wikia blogs.

notice how clean the edit box now looks! With only the submit button?

Now I need to change the color of the submit button, move it over, and shrink the size of this edit box.

somewhere along the way I lost the ability to delete messages :) Need to figure out how too. A 03:20, 27 January 2011 (UTC)

You have this coding for the tabber box:

First remove at top:

This removed code forces the tabber to be on the right side and only 200 px. we dont need this anymore.

Second Move : |-| Dead Rising 2=

To the very bottom of the page, below all writing.

Third cut and paste all information from dead rising 2 page between

|-| Dead Rising 2=

and

Fourth

All will not work, they must be replaced with

Save the page.

Fifth

Redirect the dead rising 2 page to the generic page. Example: Apple (Dead Rising 2) redirect to Apple.

Let me know how it works. A 03:05, 11 March 2011 (UTC)

stores area all done
All of the dr and dr 2 stores are merged, so you can change the templates on these too.

Note that there is currently no tabbers around the templates on the dr1 store pages. A 09:31, 13 March 2011 (UTC)

weapons all done
All DR1 and DR2 weapons are done. Took me FOREVER to finish. Thanks for your help in merging before, made it much faster :)

Anyone there? A 16:48, 18 March 2011 (UTC)
 * I just finished Generator thoughts? A 17:36, 21 March 2011 (UTC)
 * thanks. :) fairly easy to do, i can make a how to video if you like.
 * Map is slowly coming along. I have torn apart the old dead rising 1 map to see how it works.
 * soon i will be doing screenshots of case west and actually finishing the game.
 * plus merging -- close to finished! you guys work already made it much easier. Once that is done, it will be so nice to work only on content building!
 * Cheers! A 21:24, 21 March 2011 (UTC)

your a genius
As I second check and finish merging I keep thinking, thank god for jax, that he had the good sense to have us move before Case West!

Although by the time Case West came out I was no longer actively working on wikia, I can't imagine the work needed to merge Case West too, on top of everything else! A 14:12, 23 March 2011 (UTC)

Of course, only internet explorer has this error. I will look into it. Thanks. A 14:55, 29 March 2011 (UTC)

I am exploring how to check a poster's IP address and will post it on this wiki. hopefully he is editing from his work or school so I can get him fired or reprimanded.

I am tired of this shit. A 14:49, 4 May 2011 (UTC)
 * I got check user to work. I found out where he works (see his user page). I will send an email to his employer tonight. A 20:26, 4 May 2011 (UTC)

spoiler template
I really think we may want to reconsider the spoiler template. People come here for information about the game.

I subscribe to Wikipedia's view on this:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:SPOILER

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:No_disclaimers_in_articles

This is probably the best point:


 * It is hard to define which articles should have a disclaimer...Allowing some disclaimers would generate a significant overhead of disputes regarding where to draw the line; this draws editors away from more productive tasks.

Do we add spoilers on every single case? Every survivor?

thoughts? A 19:41, 5 May 2011 (UTC)
 * really, you are all for it? If so, you are welcome to create a forum post. If you don't, i will let the issue drop :) Good to hear from you again. A 12:27, 6 May 2011 (UTC)

 * hey great edits today, if you need me to run the wikibot, let me know. For example, I can change DR2 clothing to dead rising clothing with a couple of key strokes. A 03:43, 5 August 2011 (UTC)
