No problem, I'll try to add the rest soon and reupload the xmb file(again). Sir Wikia 18:01, July 7, 2011 (UTC)

Vandal
There's somebody with the tag "yourmommy" vandalizing all around the wiki. Mind cutting him down? Йура 19:41, July 14, 2011 (UTC)

The troll's back
The anonymous 132.3.17.68 is back and apparently is willing to start flame wars again. Could you just send him a warning or block it (as last resort)? Pedro9basket 10:38, July 16, 2011 (UTC)

Also if I troll the person who's harassing Pedro(in a hilarious video type of way without saying a language such as damn) do I get blocked just curious slopijoe aka- 'M14 user of death 09:14, July 18, 2011 (UTC)'

Trolling the troll that harassing Pedro or did you take care of him will I get banned - 'M14 user of death 13:52, July 18, 2011 (UTC)'

Can I have a question why is my sig not a link I dunno. But a suggestion if you want to here it And also what's the regular week of trolls it 3 on the bf forums and 1 on this wiki till that rumor - 'M14 user of death 14:03, July 18, 2011 (UTC)'

No thanks sorry but it would be annoying for it and my sig would be well, unexplanitory. But can i have the list of trolls per week this is for purely a research project to differ from this wiki and the forums of bf. And yes if I may want you to know what I mean by my comparison between these two check the us forums my username is Osaka_amd - 'M14 user of death 14:25, July 18, 2011 (UTC)'

WW2 Planes Arment
by some research i found out that the Supermarine Spitfire used 8x .303 browning machine guns

about the german Messerschmitt Bf 109 either used MG 17 or MG 131,

im not sure if the national plane uses an MG 17 or MG 131 as the current MG

You're in luck
You're in very good luck, I happen to be on a rare Windows boot, so I can run AWB just fine currently. 22:42, July 20, 2011 (UTC)
 * I'll start that later tonight, if that's alright with you. I would have started yesterday, but I had a relatively large chunk of code to write, which had to get done before anything else. 11:27, July 21, 2011 (UTC)
 * I can try, it might be a bit before I'm able to get the parameters just right, though. 20:54, July 22, 2011 (UTC)
 * Ok, the bot's started. It has about 3,800 pages left to process, at the time of writing, so it should take a bit to finish, but it should be done within.... 73.07 minutes. 16:21, July 23, 2011 (UTC)
 * Now it has ~1500 more pages to process... 16:56, July 23, 2011 (UTC)
 * :D 17:03, July 23, 2011 (UTC)
 * It finished awhile ago, sorry for the delay in telling you, but I might have fallen asleep (accidentally, of course)... 20:13, July 23, 2011 (UTC)

JSYK
Wikia can come under fire for hosting leaked info. Because the original poster likely broke a non-disclosure agreement, we should treat such info as if it were stolen property. We shouldn't be knowingly displaying/harboring stolen property. Йура 22:46, July 20, 2011 (UTC)
 * By this, I'm guessing you're talking about all the images from the alpha gameplay?  AdminRibbon.png UserMonthRibbon.png AwardRibbon.png 800px-Template Ribbon.png 16:36, July 21, 2011 (UTC)

Another Trusted User
Hey Bond, I was wondering: what do you think about giving User:Pedro9basket a Trusted User status? 16:36, July 21, 2011 (UTC)
 * I know, that bothers me too, but he seems to want to use it to undo vandalism/bad edits and he seems to plan on working on some BF2142 articles. Even with that, he's a very nice person, and has never gotten into trouble with other users. Exemplary (in attitude), if anything.  AdminRibbon.png UserMonthRibbon.png AwardRibbon.png 800px-Template Ribbon.png 16:47, July 21, 2011 (UTC)

Leaked images
I found interesting images that were added the last couple of hours of BF3 by Zephalian, Zakhai and Sayak Majumder. I recognized them from videos of risk-takers from the Alpha Trial, I purposely kept the links and I checked again and confirmed they got removed by copyright violations from EA. This apparently doesn't get away with Fair Use, so I'd suggest to take them out of the pages until they license them properly and then put them again. EA's getting a bit "dirty" in copyright violation hunting since the Trial started. Pedro9basket 18:05, July 21, 2011 (UTC)


 * Well, they're not getting "dirty", they're just adhereing to the terms of the N-D agreement. But, because they are from leaked footage, and that EA are removing the source videos, which by the terms of the NDA are illegal (in essence), we, by common sense and right, should remove them completely, not just until they are licensed correctly. - 18:10, July 21, 2011 (UTC)


 * Agreed - 18:14, July 21, 2011 (UTC)


 * I got what you meant, I'll also find out the few that are really legitimate (Sayak's photo of the M249 seems to have appeared on the trailer after all). Could you tell how to tag the images as Fair Use of EA's content? Pedro9basket 18:17, July 21, 2011 (UTC)
 * Alright. I went to a near frame-by-frame analysis to the video and licensed BF3 M249 SAW.png. Zephalian's photos are illegal, as most of them have a Alpha Trial sign and Glock 17.gif is from a video I just saw in my History from the vids of this morning on YouTube that was not from EA. Ak74mis.PNG is from a video that ironically appeared before the Alpha was announced and I downloaded the video in case it was deleted and I just checked that it wasn't legitimate. As Sayak Majumder had one legitimate, I'll keep searching if it's legitimate and it's not very hard (as the footage is scarce, YouTube users download it and re-upload it as soon as the original accounts are deleted/striked). I'll give you a further update later on. Pedro9basket 18:53, July 21, 2011 (UTC)
 * Time to go on a deleting spree.  AdminRibbon.png UserMonthRibbon.png AwardRibbon.png 800px-Template Ribbon.png 19:15, July 21, 2011 (UTC)


 * Update: I finished analysing Sayak's pics and I found no legitimate source from each pictures, as with the exception of Battlefield3-SVD.jpg (that the top part was removed with the YouTube uploader channel watermarked) every picture has the Alpha Trial sign and the name of the squad members were blacked out to prevent ban from the leakers. So, every of those pics except for BF3 M249 SAW.png are granted by me as leaked and illegal. Pedro9basket 21:34, July 21, 2011 (UTC)
 * Ok, so I deleted most of the illegal images. So according to you File:Battlefield3-SVD.jpg and File:BF3 M249 SAW.png are ok? Well, I'm not so sure about the SVD one... I didn't see that in any trailers or gameplay. And what about File:Ak74m.PNG and File:Ak74mis.PNG? They don't seem too legit either, didn't see it in any trailers.  AdminRibbon.png UserMonthRibbon.png AwardRibbon.png 800px-Template Ribbon.png 01:41, July 22, 2011 (UTC)
 * Oops, sorry, just understood that the SVD one is bad too. Still leaves the other two, though.  AdminRibbon.png UserMonthRibbon.png AwardRibbon.png 800px-Template Ribbon.png 01:43, July 22, 2011 (UTC)
 * Both File:Ak74m.PNG and File:Ak74mis.PNG are bad too. They were the first leak of the Alpha Trial (I downloaded it the video so I could analyse later and just confirmed). Either way, I may look for more pictures from the trailer, they took good pieces and angles of gameplay. Pedro9basket 09:35, July 22, 2011 (UTC)
 * The M16 image that I had uploaded earlier was from the Battlefield 3 Multiplayer trailer that got released recently but for some reason it was removed. What's the reason? Sayak


 * Oops, my bad. I denounced it as not legitimate, in a glimpse I must have thought it was in the park or something (whereas the only M16 in the park had Holographic Scope). Forgive me, I've mistaken the location. Bond it's indeed legitimate. Sorry (saw so many pics in the park, it got a bit hard to see what was leaked or not) - Pedro9basket 13:42, July 23, 2011 (UTC)

No Idea to be honest.
They were the multiplayer footage from Youtube but i'll stop posting..

Hey, I did a couple of pics for the commo rose, but the one I added....wasn't very good. I could have some better. Wouldn't you mind and delete it? Pedro9basket 15:00, July 24, 2011 (UTC)


 * Forgot to thank you, so thanks. Also, Sem_título.jpg‎ is unlicensed by me, it's to be deleted due to its title having a ´ accent, which is not on US keyboards (I uploaded one equal with more descriptive title anyway due to Yuri's request). Pedro9basket 18:24, July 27, 2011 (UTC)

Changes to the BFH section
I'm curious why you are merging certain weapon pages, we (Maxwell and me) are trying to etablish since a few weeks?

I know that there're missing some pages (e.g. Luger P08), but since we don't spend 24/7 h on this wiki it's not advisable to revert our efforts for that reason. If you already forgot this discussion you should re-read it: Forum:Wiki_copying_allegations

You are pushing the BFH section exactly in a direction I predicted and worry about. Please come in touch with us to agree on a more acceptable solution or create a new forum discussion. BFH-Wiki 20:12, July 24, 2011 (UTC)
 * The name policy isn't applicable in this case, apart from creating the page: "Tommy's Typewriter". The three royal standard guns use all the same model but have different names. Got to go now, I'll post more tomorrow how I imagine the structure ;) BFH-Wiki 21:11, July 24, 2011 (UTC)
 * So back now: I definitly do NOT want a true copy of the BFH wiki here, this makes one of them waste of time. If the weapon types and tiers should be pointed out more clearly, a "Weapons (Battlefield Heroes)" page would make sense. On the other hand this goes along the early Template:Weapons/BFH version. The template may has been messed up a bit, but forcing a one row table is worse than improving the system. BFH-Wiki 16:17, July 25, 2011 (UTC)


 * Further edits to the Weapon Template allowed? I mean the string snail looks really ugly and you missed the pistols (Pirate, Uzi, Tec-9). BFH-Wiki 16:59, July 25, 2011 (UTC)

Just wondering
Do you think it would be smart to create a Battlefield fanfiction wiki like that one that was made for the CoD wiki? Йура 03:36, July 25, 2011 (UTC)
 * Actually, I wasn't particularly aiming to do so; I was just wondering what you thought about it. It's probably not a good idea ATM given that for the most part, nobody's writing Battlefield fanfiction anymore. But when BF3 is released, it might be a good idea. Йура [[file:YuriKaslov - Sig image.gif|15px|link=User talk:YuriKaslov]] 21:19, July 25, 2011 (UTC)
 * I'm honestly not particularly big on the idea either, but it was something I called forth from the recesses of my head, a comment made by BBP09 about how there's no BF fanfic wiki, so he was posting his on the CoD wiki's.

New Idea
So im excited about decision if the idea is gonna be tried out ! - im not sure how to do the edit/command thing Maxwell123 16:49, July 25, 2011 (UTC)

Well i meant how to add the right codes so the idea is showing up on the template/infobox

I requare some border spacing editing, but as i pointed out, why dont give both idea a try-out ?

Colored names problem
Hey! I am having trouble seeing yours and SSD colors as i think someone said they were green and you see i am color blind and i cant actually see it. Could you change it to something else? Trusted user color is also kind of wierd but i can kind of relate to them. EDIT: additional details. When i see your name or SSD i see this white/brownish color which is very hard to notice. Especially when the background is white and my computer screen is shit. Its a bit annoying. Death to the false emperor! 13:11, July 26, 2011 (UTC)

Well thanks for looking into it :) Death to the false emperor! 13:18, July 26, 2011 (UTC)

Hmm, blue and gold/yellow are taken, A dark brown or purple pink i can depart from others Death to the false emperor! 13:21, July 26, 2011 (UTC)

Yes, i can relate to that color, and bots wont be a problem i never see them in recent activity or ever actually, also i saw some user with a red name earlier. Whats up with that? Name is QX100, red is also an issue for me but it isnt whitelight brown more of a medium/dark one so it dosent give me any problems. Death to the false emperor! 13:33, July 26, 2011 (UTC)

Well thanks for getting it all fixed for me ^^ Death to the false emperor! 18:34, July 26, 2011 (UTC)

Insignia
I was thinking, we could add the insignia for rank and unit to the infoboxes, similar to what Maxwell and AwesomeSauce360 (Here) were doing. What do you think? IMO it makes the pages a little more aesthetically pleasing. Йура 21:28, July 26, 2011 (UTC)

Leaked Content

 * Hi, sorry for the slow reply.
 * We don't have an official policy on leaked content as such... but it sometimes comes up as a copyright issue. Unlike most content on fan sites, the original company is likely to be unhappy about leaked content - and so more likely to send in an official take-down notice for any leaked images or screenshots. If it's information that's been leaked rather than copyrightable content, then the situation is a little different. Information can't be copyrighted of course, but I have seen situations where a company will be more picky about images in general on wikis that use leaked content. It really depends on what is leaked and how upset they are about it. And, of course, it's always nice to keep on the good side of the game companies :) so that's a consideration in deciding what you include.
 * So overall, it's up to you to decide what to include (as long as it's legal), but good to be aware of the downsides -- sannse http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb32675/wikia/images/e/e9/WikiaStaff.png (help forum | blog) 19:49, July 31, 2011 (UTC)

Im srry but my english isnt the best so i rather let other add the text when they have time, we work together like i add the infobox by go checking gamefiles,

Cut content-related stuff?
Since I feel like I'm on the verge of a breakthrough in terms of BF1942 and BFV cut content (finally found an .RFA unpacker tool, yay!), do you think there should be a portal related to cut content?

Why Site Meter
Well im not 100 % sure if your understanding the idea back adding Site Meter.

The main idea is that it's gonna count 1 everytime a new visitor enter the "Battlefield Wiki" to an total in the stat picture.

Let me explain about Quantcast - Quantcast is superior to Site Meter but it can't show up how many total times people have visited the what like what Site Meter is gonna do.

So the whole concept idea about Site Meter it's that its gonna count & add 1 everytime an new visitor enter this wikia

Pretty simple and easy idea, the Site Meter it self dont requare mutch space as seen in the idea picture.

Idk if this may change your mind since im not sure if you fully understand the idea back Site Meter

like the section heading sayd the pixel lenght increase and ends up messing up the whole page.

Maxwell123 13:32, August 12, 2011 (UTC)

Yes and i did an test try placing the firing sound between the text & gallery just so we can resolve this problem

Firing the M40 Maxwell123 13:38, August 12, 2011 (UTC)

Maybe speaker symbol can be resized an bit ? so should we can place those sound files there until further notice ? Maxwell123 13:50, August 12, 2011 (UTC)

Redjust BC2V weapon pics
As you may notice i uploaded some new photo renders, the reason is very simple:

To get rid of the unused transparent pixels to the left & right of the weapon.

Maxwell123 14:10, August 12, 2011 (UTC)

Good day.
How are you?

I'm probably going to leave wikia. I'm banned on almost every wiki for what I did on the COD Wiki (even though it was so long ago) and plus, I can't edit for shit anymore. In the year, I've lost all my knowledge of HTML and Wikia coding. Just wanted to check on and say thanks for taking my shit when you didn't have to.

Well, if BF3 is good (I got it preordered) I'll probably edit it. I just don't like the way Wikia has changed everything. It's like nowadays, companies are trying to make their interfaces harder to use. Wikia, and the entire Xbox 360 come to mind.

I guess we'll know when it happens.

Street Corners
Haha i tried the standing in street corners and drinking and imitate old people, people were like staring at me!! haha Zephalian 10:01, August 15, 2011 (UTC)

"em, there isn't an reason why shoul't use the same video format whit the same file for sounds"
As discussed here we found out since we use the .ogg format for weapon sounds, there isn't going to be an big issue whit adding video of the same file format itself, User:SSDGFCTCT9 is currently working on templates to put those files an other place, however we can link those files whit an small thumbnail picture instead until further notice. Maxwell123 14:47, August 15, 2011 (UTC)

What about updating your current browser and java so you can support .ogg (just an suggestion)... Maxwell123 14:56, August 15, 2011 (UTC)

Lisen: .ogg is choosed to the standard video and sound format on wikipedia, since its open source, no fees

since wikipedia and wikia are somewhat like each other. There is an reason why .ogg is choosed to work on wikia. Maxwell123 15:02, August 15, 2011 (UTC)

Why did you remove those .ogg videos, i have planed to use them in the template SSDGFCTCT9 is currently working on, what browser do you use for the moment ? do you have java ?

Dont go agains't ogg it take 5 min if you put the effort into get your browser ogg working Maxwell123 15:12, August 15, 2011 (UTC)

Maxwell123 15:12, August 15, 2011 (UTC)

would like to ask you if you can reupload those deleted .ogg files for the template he is working on.

So you should choose to remove an incomming new feature try-out, not an good idea,

however on the cod wikia i have uploaded many files of .ogg and havn't got an message yet about dont support stuff, either way try to update your browser so you support ogg, then your issue is over. Maxwell123 15:27, August 15, 2011 (UTC)

When the "incomming new feature try-out" arrives, then we test it out on sandboxes, not just blanket pages with stuff that may or may not work. We use YouTube for videos, and if needed the .oggs for sounds if videos aren't applicable. That way we don't have to remove stuff from EVERY page if it doesn't work, just from a sandbox. - 15:32, August 15, 2011 (UTC)

But it dosn't take that long time to get the browser .ogg playable if you look for software updates or Plug-in

again i ask you if you can reupload the M16 gameplay video

Maxwell123 15:40, August 15, 2011 (UTC)

Maxwell, if the M16 video is yours then you may upload it yourself - if we stopped you then it would breach BF:WHAT - but if you place them on the mainspace pages then we'll just take them down until we, as a community, know that they work within the confines of the page or that we have a better alternative, as the discussion Forum:Add in-game weapon animation proved for using YouTube over the .ogg player. I sincerely suggest you send them to the BF wiki email so that we can place them on our YouTube channel, as we discussed in the Forums. The whole idea of being a wiki is that we can give information out to anyone without difficulties - be it not having a username, not having modern computers, etc. We, as the wiki, need to make it so that people can access stuff, not the other way round, and so that means using the best possible way to get the sounds and animations across - and to us, that is YouTube.

To use a Clarkson-style analogy, think of it like a restaurant - if people get food that isn't cooked, then they ask the chef to cook it, not they go into the kitchen and cook it themselves. In our case, if people can't use the .ogg player, which many cannot, then we change it to a means that is easier for everyone, not they have to change or update their browser to make it work. - 15:58, August 15, 2011 (UTC)

Maybe we should make an sub- bf wiki youtube channel for this usefull small instruction files, idk its my view on it.

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=6K81N5EA

Maxwell123 19:15, August 16, 2011 (UTC)

What do you mean, i upload them as .ogg then you can download then and covert them, and finaly youtube ?

Did you try download the video i uploaded on MegaUpload ? Maxwell123 19:31, August 16, 2011 (UTC)

Just take an notice that the orginal files are AVI whit good quality, however .ogg quality is very bad compared to the orginal file, so i may suggest that we should use the AVI or orginal files for the BF WIKI channel for best quality reasons.

Anyway im currently trying to make an "Radius" tab in the weapon page for explosive devises,

Blast radius. it may work now Maxwell123 19:43, August 16, 2011 (UTC)

Well hotmail to gmail dosnt support any files bigger then 20MB if i recall correctly, btw how fast is your internet line ? MegaUpload is the best alternative i can think about at the moment im srry. Maxwell123 19:57, August 16, 2011 (UTC)

Fine, fine the question now if we place place the video before the picture gallery or simple picture link the video whit like i did whit the .ogg files, how do you think about it ?

--Maxwell123 20:19, August 16, 2011 (UTC)

Since this is the first exsample video, i may suggest an better alternative:

I am currently im using lowest resulution as possible, maybe i should change to something better grapichs so the video itself looks better, i may record some new fotage then ? Maxwell123 20:23, August 16, 2011 (UTC)

Or something like this: what is your opinion about that layout ?

http://battlefield.wikia.com/wiki/User:Maxwell123/Sandbox

Maxwell123 20:51, August 16, 2011 (UTC)

I agree whit you that your idea 1 clearly looks better, however to get more views on the bf wiki channel we can considerable do an exception about "dont leave by youtube links", since it's the official bf wiki itself.

Like the VideoFrame pic can link to the direct youtube film, its one way to get more views,

you can check out the video frame here placed before the gallery

http://battlefield.wikia.com/wiki/User:Maxwell123/Sandbox

By your viewpoint is my first or second idea better ?

Maxwell123 21:06, August 16, 2011 (UTC)

Well i just thinked about if it is "considerable" since it the own bf wiki itself, and yes people may just read the article after when they are finish whit the video. if we include the video in the template/box itself it dosnt requare the thumb picture space either saved space usage, maybe you can try adding the video feature on the template itself. Maxwell123 21:23, August 16, 2011 (UTC)

Well I thought about either link the video to the bf wiki channel or have them embeded here, like your idea 1 they can be placed in the infobox itself, maybe you can give it an try ? Maxwell123 21:43, August 16, 2011 (UTC)

Youtube Videos
I found out how i can compress the huge .AVI file to .MWV, at a cost of worse overall quality, however the video file is now full-screen & the file itself is just 3.5 MB, now it dosn't take long time for me and you do upload and download the file.

you should upload it to the channel if so.

Maxwell123 13:04, August 17, 2011 (UTC)

Did you mean that i should send you the file on gmail since the file is in the supported file limit ? or did you download the vide from megaupload ? Maxwell123 13:44, August 17, 2011 (UTC)

Sure i was just wondering about when your gonna inslude the youtube film in the weapon/inbox Maxwell123 21:42, August 17, 2011 (UTC)

TT-33 is send to by mail check it up! Maxwell123 17:30, August 18, 2011 (UTC)

Maybe it's better that I send you several files at a time, If you think about it, is there are some improvements that can be done Maxwell123 14:02, August 20, 2011 (UTC)

I send you now 5 files at once may be better Maxwell123 16:11, August 20, 2011 (UTC)

Am i doing it right?
I've been adding few new pics and new pages... Zephalian 09:02, August 18, 2011 (UTC)

1000 articles
The Wiki has achieved 1,000 articles today. I think we've come a long way since late 2009, don't you? (also can you fix the timeline on BF:HISTORY, please?)      03:34, August 19, 2011 (UTC)
 * No, actually. I don't know what the 1000th article was, but I think it was created before Kobra.  AdminRibbon.png UserMonthRibbon.png AwardRibbon.png 800px-Template Ribbon.png 02:17, August 21, 2011 (UTC)
 * Actually, if I recall correctly, we had 1000 articles until Yuri created Type 100 flamethrower. So that means the 1000th article is KA-60 Kasatka.  AdminRibbon.png UserMonthRibbon.png AwardRibbon.png 800px-Template Ribbon.png 03:07, August 21, 2011 (UTC)

Flame Wars
Oh my god, came a week off vacation and I'm not over from resting a bit, but I detected a problem...

This blog is kind of destroying this Wiki's stability. I don't know what these CoDWiki users came for, but there was a particular comment from this fellow where he made his heavily negative opinion on CoD, and these come in to defend and with the BF guys despising on CoD.....this is getting out hand.... I warned them now to end the discussion, but I think this ain't ending very soon. I think commenting should be blocked on this particular blog, this ain't going anywhere and it will hurt this community more as more CoDWiki users apparently come in and hold their ground. What do you think? This is Pedro9basket, go ahead... Roger, editing now 09:17, August 19, 2011 (UTC)

I concur. If there isn't really any objection, I'll block comments soon. - 10:13, August 19, 2011 (UTC)


 * Saw you ended up blocking. Good job ;) This is Pedro9basket, go ahead... Roger, editing now 13:15, August 19, 2011 (UTC)
 * Not really blocking, more like disabling... - 13:17, August 19, 2011 (UTC)

I'm getting the feel that if we keep letting the publishing of this Activision vs. EA announcement blog posts, this wiki's community ain't going the right way. These posts of Battlefield vs. Call of Duty comparisons are just kind of calling more from Call of Duty Wiki, and creating more flame wars. And isn't about Battlefield or its developers anyway, it's just marketing through a continuous war (who knows if they made a deal about this before). Would you disagree if I say to not allow this kind of posts for now?? This is Pedro9basket, go ahead... Roger, editing now 15:30, August 26, 2011 (UTC)


 * Talking about this subject, look at this.... Body text won't help at all.... This is Pedro9basket, go ahead... Roger, editing now 18:47, August 26, 2011 (UTC)

BF videos
If you want, I could send you my BFV and BF2 videos (not all of them I've posted. I actually have a video about the LP7 that I never uploaded) to repost. It might help the channel get views. Йура 17:31, August 20, 2011 (UTC)
 * Sure, I'll send a couple videos. Йура [[file:YuriKaslov - Sig image.gif|15px|link=User talk:YuriKaslov]] 18:16, August 20, 2011 (UTC)
 * Also, if you want to you could send some of those other videos to me, and I'd remake them in the style I've been going with for a while now. With some historical background and stats and whatnot. Йура [[file:YuriKaslov - Sig image.gif|15px|link=User talk:YuriKaslov]] 19:16, August 20, 2011 (UTC)
 * The ones that, imo I could improve are the ones that were uploaded earlier; the BFBC2V vids. Just to give people a better feel for how the weapon fares agaisnt other weapons (ROF, damage, accuracy) and maybe give some historical background to each weapon.

Well, we're better then #30. Probably because we haven't played a real game since June.

Job?
What kind of job you have? Are you getting paid properly? Do you wish you had another job? Maybe a job that can pay you enough money to get the Secret Weapons of WWII expansion pack for BF1942? Well good luck on your quest to buy a console, then get BF1943! And now is not the time to recommend a console for you! You do need a console for BF1943 sicne it'll never be on PC ever!

Where is the videos?
Why havn't you uploaded those youtube videos you used to do ? Maxwell123 14:14, August 22, 2011 (UTC)

oh, thx by the way, em there isn't many left just sniper rifles and rare weapon's i think Maxwell123 15:42, August 22, 2011 (UTC)

Little improvment
I noticed that if we play those quick videos in the template, there is some black unused space, if there was an way it can display an full image but still being in the same size ? Maxwell123 16:06, August 22, 2011 (UTC)

Troll
Just a heads up - this guy could use a ban, also he claims he can use multiple accounts, so that's admission that he owns multiple accounts, and is willing to use them to cause problems, which in itself is a legitimate reason to ban him. Thanks! --Callofduty4 16:09, August 25, 2011 (UTC)

Upload songs/audio to youtube
What about upload stuff like songs, so we can get the total views instead of the other youtube users !

i send an exsamle video about the BF Vietnam soundtrack

If you check Battlefield Vietnam and BC2 i added an song, we should try only try to keep the play volume bar, for just the audio. Im gonna record more weapon gameplay soon.

Sorry for not answering you on the e-mail in the past week i have been on school.

em from my view i dont think the stats need to be there, tought it can be transparent whit the film if so

Looks like the BF Wikis is the only wiki for me
Got banned for three days on the Fallout Wiki (no warning, no talk page) for telling them I am of Aryan race, and apparently being racist. I guess having your ancestors come from one part of the map is not allowed.

Not really. Not as much as the people are perceiving.

Saying I have ancestors from India or Iran from kind of a long time ago is no more offensive then saying "I have ancestors from Africa." It's one of the things society is stupid about. Like yesterday, some black guy called me a cracker, and no one cared. When I called him a nigger, because he made fun of me in the same way, everyone started jumping on my ass for being racist.

You can haz get onto #wikia-bf?

Most swastikas that are peaceful or mean something else are not pointed directly as Hitler did on the Nazi Flag. I did this once too, when one of my Hindu friends got banned for posting a swastika (it looked nothing like a Nazi swastika) in Black Ops. I got him unbanned and I got two or three people who cussed him out even when they knew banned :D

Hardly immature. It's not my problem if people argue, I don't add to the blog "hey guys, let's have a fight about it!". If people want to be idiots and argue for no reason, then that's their problem. As the saying goes, don't shoot the messenger. --Callofduty4 14:10, August 27, 2011 (UTC)


 * Sorry to burst your bubble but don't blame my blogs, which are a copy-paste from the ones on the CoD wiki. We don't have a problem with them on the CoD wiki, so you shouldn't here. The fact you do clearly puts the finger of blame at the commenters. Once again, you can't shoot the messenger. Also, I do know better, hence I know who to blame. --Callofduty4 14:15, August 27, 2011 (UTC)

As I said before, blame the commenters. I will keep my blogs as they are, because they work on the CoD wiki, so they should be fine here too, and I would appreciate it if you did not interfere with them any more than you already do. Feel free to discuss this more if you want, but I don't think it needs to be discussed further, since I have explained who is to blame. --Callofduty4 14:26, August 27, 2011 (UTC)

Youtube Channel
How many admins does have the password to the channel on yt ? maybe it can be an good idea when we create videos we can upload it directly instead send it first then upload (in other words some trusted users can get the password !? Maxwell123 17:01, August 27, 2011 (UTC)

Unlisted or fully public ?
The question is if we should keep the sounds in unlisted and keep the videos fully public

1. if we keep the sounds unlisted we can get an view about how many who plays the button

2. videos need to be fully public

what is your viewpoint of that btw i uploaded an sound from the pbr Maxwell123 15:56, August 29, 2011 (UTC)

ok so i change then from unlisted to public from now Maxwell123 16:06, August 29, 2011 (UTC)

sound tab for vehicle
Well what i thinked about was if we can plase those embedded files in an sound tab, idk but i dont make it suit well to place them below the fire mode cap. Maybe you can look at it ? Maxwell123 16:17, August 29, 2011 (UTC)

vehicle weapon range
When i think about it what about include an range tab or should this picture replace the numbers:



But it we desice to add an range tab for vehicle it may requare many edits and past since there is so many tabs

Maxwell123 16:54, August 29, 2011 (UTC)

Issue
It looks like im incoutering issues whit the wikia editor, like when i want to place to following youtube embedded files above each other they dont appear correctly. Maxwell123 17:00, August 31, 2011 (UTC)

looks like it works now Maxwell123 17:07, August 31, 2011 (UTC)

Yes it works now, btw i did a couple of grammar errors on the videos i added, so i decides to just remove the text,

But i did notice that firing inside a building in BC2 make the gun fire an different sound compared to the outdoor version, should we include that in the sound tab ? Maxwell123 17:46, August 31, 2011 (UTC)

There's a simple reason - sounds in an open area are different to in a building. The FE has the capability to replicate those sounds. It's the same in BC1 and 1943, and in all three cases the differences aren't really notable. - 17:49, August 31, 2011 (UTC)

Well i may suggest that we add an quick overview video outside, then record the firing sound inside building then put it in the sound tab. Maxwell123 18:27, August 31, 2011 (UTC)
 * I think Pete's got a point, it can't be different enough to warrant a separate media clip... - 18:28, August 31, 2011 (UTC)


 * Wait it wont be mutch of a change just check the exsample: the difference is that we can add the sound inside building witch the video dosnt have !?

Video:Battlefield Bad Company 2 PSA

Maxwell123 18:40, August 31, 2011 (UTC)


 * I'm guessing that infobox is here for a purpose, but if it is, you'll have to explain what that purpose is. Anyway, I'm still with Pete on this one - 18:46, August 31, 2011 (UTC)


 * Ok the reason why im suggesting the inside building sound is as follows:


 * The video is gonna be recorded outside - mean that the sound is the orginal file.


 * The sound file is just the other exsample where you are inside building, witch effect the sound ecco.
 * If we are go for this i can record some exsamples and upload them. Maxwell123 18:50, August 31, 2011 (UTC)


 * Well, I just think it's pointless virtual-duplication for no real reason. Plus it would be confusing unless clearly explained in the tab, which would take up more space than it would be worth - 18:57, August 31, 2011 (UTC)

Check out the sound tab now, you mean it take to mutch space to just write "Firing inside building" or "Sounds inside building"
 * In general there is an slight difference in sound output, my idea is if we should include it so we can use the new added sound tab. Overall it is considerable Maxwell123 19:13, August 31, 2011 (UTC)


 * The sound tab shouldn't just be used for the sake of it though, there should be a reason behind it and I just don't think this is a very good reason, especially where there is already a video - 19:18, August 31, 2011 (UTC)


 * But the video dosn't cover the firing sound inside building thats my point! Maxwell123 19:24, August 31, 2011 (UTC)
 * Yes, but since it's virtually identical to firing outside, there's no point including a second, very similar piece of media to a piece we already have - 19:30, August 31, 2011 (UTC)


 * They arent 100% identical, thats the reason why im suggesting we can add an audio tab about an media file witch cover firing sound inside. Maxwell123 19:51, August 31, 2011 (UTC)
 * They are basically 99% identical, the only change being the increase in volume (confined space, etc.) and the echos from the walls. Ever tried firing an air rifle in a range? Inside sound = outside sound. - 19:58, August 31, 2011 (UTC)


 * em, 1 % different isn't from my view correctly statement, should i record couple of exsamples so everyone can hare the difference ? Maxwell123 20:12, August 31, 2011 (UTC)


 * Per pete; the way acoustics work means that a sound will be exactly the same within air of the same density (given that the biosphere air consistency of Earth is roughly the same everywhere, it doesn't particularly matter what a weapon sounds like when engulfed in helium, though if it worked it would sound extremely high-pitched because the sound waves would be travelling much faster than in the normal air mix). What makes sounds seem different indoors is a number of different factors: solid walls which do not allow sounds to escape will cause echoes (primary cause), outdoor sounds being cut off, and other sounds getting mixed into the firing sound of the weapon. In real life, and in-game, the indoor firing sound is identical to that of the outside. Йура [[file:YuriKaslov - Sig image.gif|15px|link=User talk:YuriKaslov]] 20:19, August 31, 2011 (UTC)
