Remember me?
Hey Grizzly, it's Helix! Sorry, I've been away for a REALLY long time, but I visited this wiki on a whim and thought I'd say hi. How's everything going? A bunch of stuff's happened lately, and I've been preocquipied with high school. I recall you said you were getting married (which was like, what, a year ago?). How is that coming along? :D Helix Armada 05:56, October 13, 2010 (UTC)

New Wikia Skin
Hi, Tag.

I just tried the new wikia skin and it's horrible. Especially for this wiki - where you done so many amazing things for its awesome outlook - the skin looks absolutely afwuly.

However there is a problem. The Monaco style "expires" in 2. November. Is there any thing (f. e. tell the community to do an exemption for this wiki) to prevent the Eva Database Disaster?

New Wikia Skin, part 2
You might want to take a look at Forum: Admin image/media changes due to the new skin; there's a little info there on making the new skin less ... bad. PSH aka Kimera 757 (talk) contribs) 02:54, November 7, 2010 (UTC)

"Supplies" page
Primeprophet just made an unregistered contribution on the Supplies page if you would like to know. I just noted that in Generals supplies are just starters and really you are supposed to make hackers, black markets, or drop zones if you really want to kick ass

Box Images
I was thinking about removing the "add an image" button from the UnitBox templates. It's confusing since it doesn't insert the image into the unitbox. I'm thinking of replacing it with the one I used in the WarBox. If no image is specified it simply doesn't show anything.

What do you think?

Wiki desing
Hi, Tag.

I do not now what is going on, but this wiki looks quite ugly if you are not logged in as a registrated user. If you are logged in it looks ok... But when you are not... just try it...

I need help
Hi. I need some help elaborating an aricle that I made recently. Maybe you could add an image gallery. The article I am talking about is the Missile article for generals. Leave a message on my talk page when you have made some changes.

71.104.184.11 04:33, January 17, 2011 (UTC)Jacob

Why thank you, I am always happy that somebody else at least cares about wiki.

Featured article
It seems that the Featured article part on the main page doesn't change at all - at least so it seems to me. It's fixed to Michael McNeil. Do you have this "problem" too, and could we do something about it?

To tell the truth, I haven't loged to EVA for some time, but I'm pretty sure that every time I've opened the main page, I get that article featured. I don't know much about this, but I suppose that there are just too few articles selected to be "featured" or something. Don't really know how that works, really...

It's most likely just me, but I wanted to point it out.

Thanks in advance. Atomkilla 20:17, February 11, 2011 (UTC)

requesting rollbacker rights
I am here to request rollback rights today. I have been at Wikipedia lately working on reverting vandalism, as you can see by my contributions over there. I am a very responsible user who will dedicate himself to removing vandalism from this wiki as I have at Wikipedia. I will never use profanity, vandalize, or revert any good edits made by other users. I will not use this ability to revert edits made by other users just because I don't like the user or the edit they made. If you have any questions for me, leave them on my talk page.

GDI power plant
Wondering if you could give me a hand with the GDI power plant article.They seem to have have different built times, cost and upgraded power amount in Kane's wrath compared to Command and Conquer 3. Could you confirm this? Both games are fully patched. I've upload a suitable image but can't add it for some reason. Also something strange is going on. Various buildings and units are being added to the catagory of GDI characters in command and conquer, despite repeated deletion of the category tag, it just comes back on its own.

update: using an R}} instead of a references> seemed to be causing problems.

Chinese pistol
Ha? Why? Because of the last debate? Although you have slightly insulting someone it's for me not a reason to be banned. I hope you come back soon.

I replied to the message of Darkman 4 for Van Buren images, but if you want to do once income, no problem it's ok.

And excellent discovered for the Chinese pistol, you have really look far there bravo (haha language tools, especially with languages ​​far apart like Chinese is not always reliable).

Good day to you, hoping that you will return soon, see you soon my friend! Itachou [~talk~] 13:28, May 25, 2011 (UTC)


 * After searching a bit more, I see you've had a bad day, which explains your reaction, then I can understand I think you remember my behavior during the discussion on the combat armor MK II, I have sometimes the same kind of day that changes us and our impulsive and aggressive side comes out more.


 * But I just also saw on The Vault forum that have a request for remove your admin rights. You are accused of abusing your power, to be insulting, sarcastic and non-neutral when interlocution with other users.


 * I don't know how this story will end, but hoping that this ends the better. I will first wait to see how the situation will evolve before I forge a true opinion. I appreciate you and I'm your friend but my personal opinion has little interest on this one, only your actions will speak to the community. Don't lose hope, anyway you can represent an admin demand later, it's not a problem. Good luck Mikael. Itachou [~talk~] 14:06, May 25, 2011 (UTC)

Yes of course, but immediately intervene will not be in your favor (especially since there are only 2 reviews - including Lugiatm with whom we had the debate). For now I think it will sound too much the friend who runs to the rescue of his friend without too ask this question on the why and how. I think tomorrow will be much better already, better if there are other opinions tonight =). Itachou [~talk~] 14:37, May 25, 2011 (UTC)

Double Redirects

Clarifications
Given your experience and history on EVA Wiki, as well as your status as 'crat and administrator, I though it best to ask you for clarification on a few things.


 * Article Titles

From what I can tell, both yourself and the community have been moving pages, mostly on account of changing fully capitalized titles to lower case (V3 Rocket Launcher to V3 rocket launcher, for example); is the lower case fashion a preference?
 * Article Content

I notice that you have previously indicated a preference for articles that are relatively short and to-the-point, and tend to remove quite a bit of content (sometimes without explanation, to my surprise); what information is extraneous? What should be avoided?
 * Categorization

Does this wiki prefer to extend usage of lower cases to categories? Such as  instead of  ?

Thank you for your time. Auguststorm1945 21:36, June 5, 2011 (UTC)

Quick question(s)
I've no idea what time it must be there (Are you still in Poland?), but if you are on at the moment - Thanks; Auguststorm1945 17:08, June 9, 2011 (UTC)
 * Since Red Alert uses the terms interchangeably, which do you think sounds better (and will be easier to navigate) - "Building" or "Structure"?
 * I have some experience with reworking categories and have done some offsite work for this wiki recently; is there anything I should know or that you want to know before I try implementing anything? (I wouldn't just up and do it without asking, of course).
 * Last thing - "ship" versus "naval vessel" versus "naval unit" - preference?

Capitalization
Hi Tag (sorry for Tag, but I really like it :D).

I personally don't understand why do you insist on "decapitalization" of names of units in the games. Look, I'm from Czech Republic and I understand why the names should be decapitalized, but in America they do it this "total-capitalization" way and we should probably respect it. I know, in fact there is no rule in English for this capitalization of every word, but everybody does it, including the game developers, so why confuse the other editors of this wiki?

--Москвин 16:31, August 2, 2011 (UTC)


 * You think it's for the UI? I thought that the names are capitalized just because they are TITLES. Like Die Hard etc. Anyway I think that this capitalizing is very confusing for Americans and it's adding a lot of unneccessary work to us :).

Concept Art Categories
Hi, i just wanted to clear up something, how come the concept art for CNC3 game was deleted while the concept art for Tiberian Twilight and Kane's Wrath (which is a part of CNC3) still exists. i originally thought that it might have been practical to put the conept art of the games by the name of game it is in? Sclera1 05:37, September 19, 2011 (UTC)

sorry, but please say it straight, because i didn't understand what you were saying Sclera1 06:54, September 19, 2011 (UTC)

RE: Concept Art

US/Brit English; Capitalisation of unit names etc.
Hi. Should articles be written in American English or British English? Command & Conquer games are developed in the US, and use American English (usually with regards to the word "armor"). However, Wikipedia EN chooses to write its articles in British English.

Also: Which is preferrable, in terms of capitalisation?

"Scorpion Tank" (this style is used in-game, makes the most sense to me as both readers and contributors will be more familiar with this style of capitalisation, having played the games - plus, there isn't room for confusion as outlined below)

Or: "Scorpion tank" (used IRL, e.g. "Abrams tank", "Tiger tank". At first this might make sense, but capitalising other more unconventional units in this style doesn't quite work: "Annihilator tripod" seems quite weird to me.

BlackHand751 22:19, October 23, 2011 (UTC)

also I think these should be added to the Style Guide

== I'm confused - why delete the Style and Image Policy pages? == Not that anyone followed them in the first place, but they were still quite helpful as general guidelines. Also, the main page still has links to them. oh, nevermind BlackHand751 08:01, October 25, 2011 (UTC)

WW2 article gif
Why did you remove the course_of_the_war gif? I think it offered a good and quick graphical overview of the course. Path-x 22:12, November 8, 2011 (UTC)
 * Why composite? I always thought that Allied campaign was canon event in both RA and Tiberium universe while Soviet campaign was an alternative event. The two campaigns don't mix because they start at the same time and same territorial point and follow the same time line but the events go in completely different directions. Do you have any official source to confirm that the Soviet advance went beyond that in Allied campaign? Because that sounds like a fan assumption to me. Path-x 10:37, November 9, 2011 (UTC)
