PS4 Lineup Video
Hey there, Awyman13, my name is Doug from Wikia's Community Development team. We recently created a PS4 Lineup video that features Battlefield 4 and would love to have it hosted on the featured media section of your mainpage. : Your decision on whether to implement.

Thank you and have a good one! TheBlueRogue (profile)•(talk)•(email) 23:46, November 15, 2013 (UTC)

Congratulations!
On being one of our Wiki's finest, the Administrators. I definitely thought you were eligible for the position. Keep up the good work! Rangers Lead The Way 03:16, November 17, 2013 (UTC)

Recker construction
The stuff that this anon put in on Recker is really bad, and I'm not really up for revising it all. Can I just delete it and put in my own? I know his intentions were good, but it's just really poor quality. He would skip events of missions, the grammar is lacking, and it doesn't fit typical uniform standards. For example, he put in detailed recounting of Hawkins' crash, but just skipped everything between the factory and school. Since it isn't the main article of the missions, it's just supposed to be short, right? I feel like I need to re-write it all. Bleh. 23:03, November 17, 2013 (UTC)

Blackburn's page just says how he recounted his POV of the campaign to the agents. It doesn't actually explain mission-for-mission. Even Marlowe isn't that explicit. I'm thinking about just briefly writing up the missions' events within a few sentences per mission. Bleh. 23:20, November 17, 2013 (UTC)

Confirmed weapons for SA, leak or no leak?
I was scouring the web for info on any upcoming expansion packs and I found some interesting things involving SA:

We all know the AS VAL and the F2000 is confirmed, but I also read that there is the M60E4, the DAO-12, and golly Bad Company! The GOL! My concern is is it considered leaked or is it a glitch with the patch again? If I am given the go I will add these three to the list.

RE: Achievements
Hi again.

Achievements have been discussed and very strongly rejected previously (see here). I personally stand by the arguments against them made in that forum.

However, you rightly point out that times have changed, and achievements have been successful on other wikis. Furthermore, with less activity and fewer active users, the current bureaucracy is no longer fit for purpose.

My suggestion would be that if you think this will help, discuss it with whoever is active at the moment and if you can agree, then perhaps give it a trial. - 11:42, November 27, 2013 (UTC)

Some image questions
Hi again. I've decided I can do some image work for being lucky enough to own BF:BC2, BF3 and BF4 on PC as well as one that can run them smoothly (most or all images I'll take will be on high/ultra at 1080p), but I'd ask a few questions if that's ok. 17:38, November 27, 2013 (UTC)
 * 1) After taking a few looks at other images on other pages, it seems other people including admins have used public domain to license in-game screenshots, do I use that as well, instead of fair use?
 * 2) Do you prefer images with transparent background (such as this) or without it? Cropping it out takes another 5-10 minutes of work per image so if it makes the image worse or simply not notably better, I might not do it.
 * 3) I assume it's alright if I remove the current images from pages simultaneously when I replace if they're low quality and obsolete? And for that matter, do you guys do anything about unused images?
 * Alright. To use the fair use license on in-game screenshots, I assume it would be or something (I honestly can't come up with a proper "source" for something taken from your own gameplay)?  17:56, November 27, 2013 (UTC)

If you think there should be a trial, you have every right to propose one. Furthermore, the community has every right to debate and vote on anything - he has no right to ban a proposal and if he tries that constitutes an abuse of his privileges, which the community can easily revoke, and a blockable offence - 20:12, November 29, 2013 (UTC)

Message for Admins
Both Joe and Ranger have today announced to me their intention to retire from the wiki. That leaves the wiki without an active bureaucrat (I can't stay myself, my dissertation is on the horizon).

I recommend print screening (PRNT SCRN) and then pasting the little icon to get the image. It wouldn't let me re-upload it to here because it detected a duplicate.

RE: Fluid
Can you screenshot the problem as you see it, because everything looks fine to me. Fluid just means the content auto-resizes to the size of the screen better for widescreen and tablets. It does, however, mean any content set to a specific width has to be done so as a percentage of the screen width rather than a set number of pixels. If you can show me where the problem is, I can fix it. - 13:00, December 4, 2013 (UTC)


 * I think fluid is supposed to look like that - it's certainly not something we can change ourselves. It looks similar to your screenshots on my phone, but still looks normal on my laptop. If you come across anything else that doesn't work that can be changed, it would be useful to know.
 * As for the Neutraliser situation, I agree. I've given him a warning for the category adding thing, but also suggested he ask for help if he needs it. I take it Jack of All knows something about CTW? Hopefully between all of us we can help to resolve the situation soon. - 13:30, December 4, 2013 (UTC)

Redundant articles
I saw you wrote up a new page for Weapon Crate, but I already wrote up this subject under Supply Drop (Singleplayer). As we shouldn't have two different pages for the same subject, we should find a way to merge them. I personally think it's a good idea to keep the old page, as it includes the section about BF:BC2. Maybe we should rename the old page to "Weapon Crate"?

It's just Bleh (with italics)... I add it with the four tildes. I dunno what you mean by adding it "manually." I honestly have no idea what you mean by the template either... Bleh. 04:28, December 8, 2013 (UTC)

Sure, I'll borrow yours later. :P

Spoilers Template
I don't know how to do that off the top of my head, but it is a good idea. I'll look into it for you... - 18:30, December 10, 2013 (UTC)

Re: Username Colors
Can be found and edited on this page. Use Ctrl + F (or Command + F on Mac) to find usernames and just follow the format of other Trusted Users / Admins / B'crats / Wikia Staff. 03:49, December 11, 2013 (UTC)


 * What PLR said. The usernames highlights are at the bottom of MediaWiki:Wikia.css. The formatting should be fairly straight-forward if you just copy what is already there. It used to be much easier to edit, but the infinitely wise people at Wikia insisted on making a less user friendly CSS editor rather than just using the usual editor like it used to. - 11:08, December 11, 2013 (UTC)

Re: 4 Things
1. No problem.

2. I'll do that now. I unlocked the Assignment so I'll upload pics of the process to unlock it as well.

3. Thanks for the template.

4. Thank you. :)

Looks like someone has already uploaded the high-res official version found here.

Spoiler/Hide Template
Hi Awyman13,

My name's Matt and I'm going to be working on getting a spoiler/hide template working on the Battlefield wiki over the course of the next few days. Please feel free to send me a message if you think of any more functionality you'd like to include with the template.

Thanks,

 * Great. I'll see what I can do with this. Mhadick (talk) 23:14, December 12, 2013 (UTC)

Kit Images


Hello! I've been trying to help out with images here on the wiki, and I had a question about adding images to the infoboxes for some of the kit pages. Currently, more-or-less every game before Bad Company 2 has no image in the infoboxes for the kits, so I was wondering if it'd be okay if I start going back and adding some images for the games I'm able to. However, some of the games (namely BF2 with SF and 1942) have way too many factions to use a tabber for, so I wanted to know if I could use the "Favorite Class" image, like the one below for BF2's Anti-Tank kit, for those games in the infobox and leave the character images in the gallery like they already are for the BF2 kits. Sorry to bother you with this, but I've been really wanting to help out around here, and working with media seems to be something I'm good at, so I'd like to know how to proceed.

Thanks, 04:15, December 13, 2013 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the go-ahead. I made some changes to the Anti-Tank page, everything look good? The only thing that may be out of line is the tabber I added for the actual character models, otherwise all the images clutter up the page if they're just in a gallery . 23:57, December 13, 2013 (UTC)

"Purple"
Hey, I've noticed something;  on that auto 'welcome' message, it still says that b'crats have a purple color? For obvious reasons, is there a way to change this? It's really out-of-date and kinda bugs me. Bleh. 04:30, December 13, 2013 (UTC)

Heads Up
Just a heads up - Neutraliser's block has expired and I noticed he made a single edit again yesterday. I'm assuming in good faith that he is simply ignorant of our policies as opposed to deliberately breaking them and have left him a message accordingly. Nevertheless, keep an eye on him if he starts editing again... - 12:24, December 13, 2013 (UTC)

RE: Edit Tracks
Sadly, I'm very busy with work at the moment, so I can't find time for any major editing, achievements included. I don't think there should be any rush with them, but I'll have a quick glance. Maybe they should be disabled until after we find time to customise them? I am not intending to stay beyond the middle of next week at the latest, so I hope your move goes well and you can get yourself set back up soon. - 22:37, December 14, 2013 (UTC)

Re:Black Info Box
I didn't even know this existed! But it needs to be white, or it won't stand out among the rest of the page. 02:26, December 16, 2013 (UTC)

Spoiler Templates
You do BF3, I'll do BF4. We don't want to relive the 14 edits in a minute Zuni Rockets catastrophe. 02:04, December 20, 2013 (UTC)

I don't have countdown to war, should it go under Battlefield 4 spoilers, or as a specific countdown to war spoiler? 02:10, December 20, 2013 (UTC)

Can you help me?
Sup Awy. Can you create a userbox for me using the image I have here? I want it to say: "This user has earned the Platinum Trophy for Battlefield 4!" 02:31, December 20, 2013 (UTC)



I attempted to make my own userbox, I couldn't understand more than 5 words. I guess my days of knowing the wiki code are long gone  02:46, December 20, 2013 (UTC)

Chat?
We seem to have run into an edit conflict, should we go one by one at adding spoiler templates (decided in chat)?

Assignments
I'll would happily help out, but you seem to have already sorted most of them. Is there a list of ones left to do that I could work through, perhaps? - 13:28, December 21, 2013 (UTC)

Re:
No problem, I'll work on it later today. 15:22, December 21, 2013 (UTC)

RE: Tabber
I detest tabber with absolute unrivalled passion. It is ugly, inconvenient, slows down the page and screws up the page navigation. In my view, it should never, ever be used in the mainspace - hence I removed it. If the page is too long to have on a single page, it should be split, never tabbed. - 16:12, December 21, 2013 (UTC)


 * To be honest, I don't see anything wrong with the length they're at currently. If you have instructed Arrow to split it then that's fine. Once it's split, there should be no need for a tabber of any kind (Yuri's included) on the assignment pages - 16:22, December 21, 2013 (UTC)

My thing isn't finished. Besides that, I intended it only for excessively long pages like Wake Island or M16. Юра  16:25, December 21, 2013 (UTC)

BF4 assignments page
It's done. Just let me know if there's anything else I need to do.

17:53, December 21, 2013 (UTC)


 * Will do. 19:08, December 21, 2013 (UTC)


 * Done.

Hey
Why did you delete those pages? Did you move them somewhere else?  Your favo  rite Engineer 18:03, December 21, 2013 (UTC)
 * If you're referring to the various BF3 assignments, they've been consolidated to Battlefield 3 Assignments. We didn't need a separate page for each one. 18:07, December 21, 2013 (UTC)


 * Wow I forgot about that. Alright

RE: Achievements
Thanks. Is it just me that finds the achievement customisation page the most user unfriendly thing in the world. It's so bad... - 19:13, December 21, 2013 (UTC)


 * I had to do each one about 3 times before they actually saved. Some of them still haven't saved but I've given up! - 19:41, December 21, 2013 (UTC)


 * Notifications seem to be working fine for me... - 19:55, December 21, 2013 (UTC)

Re: Re:
Alright, thanks for the help. I tried to fix it by copying the source from a previous version, but I'm not familiar with how to do that. I must be missing it when it's right in front of my face 21:56, December 21, 2013 (UTC)

Could you please delete these images for me (http://battlefield.wikia.com/wiki/File:ScreenshotWin32-0004.png and  http://battlefield.wikia.com/wiki/File:ScreenshotWin32-0005.png in case PLR is not active tonight)? Thanks,

Oh well then, thanks anyways

Spoiler Template
Hey, thanks for getting rid of those images for X-Alt while I was offline.

I was just wondering if we could change the "Click here to reveal them" sentence of the spoiler template to another color, let's say, white? Anything that will make it stand out more. 15:18, December 22, 2013 (UTC)

Redirects for assignment pages
Hey, I added redirects for each of the BF3 Premium "Specialist" assignments (JNG-90 Specialist, MTAR Specialist, etc.), as they had pages linking to them. Do I need to do this for any other individual assignment pages?

Probably not! Since all the votes I've been monitoring have ended now, I expect I'll stick around for a few days and then go just after Christmas. - 17:58, December 22, 2013 (UTC)
