Re: Mortar
I figure we might want to just want to merge it with the M224 Mortar into one big Mortar page, no real reason to keep them separate besides the naming. -04:01, June 7, 2016 (UTC)

The reason BFV mortar page was merged was because both sides called their mortars "Mortars", I merged them because of their in-game name. I merged them (with Yuri's permission from my memory) since they had no real difference other then ones skin was different then the other. -- Slopijoe 04:23, June 7, 2016 (UTC)


 * Makes sense, they are completely identical gameplay-wise. The M4A1's mortar isn't designated separately, so it doesn't need a page anyway, probably just expansion on the page itself. Problem settled, I suppose. -04:50, June 7, 2016 (UTC)

Question
Why did you edit mecsf pages name? - Unsigned comment by ElaGAYla June 19, 2016

M1 Abrams page
Thanks for adding that image on the M1 Abrams page i forgot it.

Moving to names that already exist as redirects
Hey Awy, can you please rename the "Breda Moddelo 30" page to "Breda Modello 30"? (back to what it was before the above user changed it) And the Mk 11 should be renamed to "SR-25", since it's not always an Mk 11 (i.e. Hardline). 18:39, June 26, 2016 (UTC)


 * Nah, they were already merged from the start, and given that the Mk 11 is a specific designation for a variant of the SR-25 that is in BF3 and BF4 but not in Hardline, we should rename it to the more general SR-25 name (I can't do it, since it already exists as a redirect). 09:33, June 28, 2016 (UTC)

Tabber
I was wondering if you or one of the admins could add a tabber for some vehicle specialization page as there may sometimes appear to be 2 or more variants of the same specializations such as http://battlefield.wikia.com/wiki/Laser_Guided. The template table appears to be very long with the same information at that point. I dont know how to implement that so I was wondering if any one you higher-ups know how to implement the tab feature? Thanks

NotLessOrEqual (talk) 11:29, July 8, 2016 (UTC)

Thanks. Uh, problem. I checked both Chrome and then Edge to see if it was just me, and I think there is something wrong with the tab.

I expected something to look kinda like this: http://battlefield.wikia.com/wiki/Laser-Light_Combo

But the tab you created ended up looking like this: http://battlefield.wikia.com/wiki/Laser_Guided

Is it a bug in the code, or is it suppose to be like that?

Again, thanks for your effort, hope I am not a bother :)

Spam account
Hello Awy, I was wondering if you could delete the userpage for this user and block them as well. The account was clearly made in mockery of me. Thanks. 20:32, July 9, 2016 (UTC)


 * Thanks Awy. 23:36, July 10, 2016 (UTC)

UCAV
You are inactive untill further notice? why do you just clean up my entire table for the damges on UCAV? Oh let me guess you hate UCAV and you wanna keep it nerfed...213.120.234.138 10:41, July 26, 2016 (UTC)CH3APlayer

Could you tell people that you're blocking them and why you're blocking them? Plus, the guy's infraction only warranted a 3-day block to begin with. Юра 05:28, July 29, 2016 (UTC)

Question
Hello. I was looking online and I happened to find this:

http://www.ibtimes.co.in/battlefield-1-data-mining-leaks-list-chapters-weapons-maps-game-modes-audio-files-685465#x6IQBdJCMjdrFw3O.97

This is a list of information (weapons, campaign info, and maps) that was data-mined out of Battlefield 1 during the alpha. I know this sounds unusual, but is it possible for you or someone else to check whether the info from it is fit to be listed on this site? I really wanted to help since I'm somewhat new to this particular wiki and I'm not sure if the rules are different from the other ones I've been on. ToonToons22 (talk) 07:42, July 29, 2016 (UTC)


 * Thank you! That's all I needed to know. ToonToons22 (talk) 13:16, July 29, 2016 (UTC)

Hey
I'm back editing wikia full time again after nearly a year of inactivity, so yeah, hi again. How was the Air Force? Capt. MillerTalk 13:06, August 9, 2016 (UTC)


 * How was flying a jet for the first time like? I'd love to do something like that, but I wouldn't be able to handle the pressure. Capt. MillerTalk 14:09, August 10, 2016 (UTC)


 * Ah, didn't realise, still, designing/fixing planes is probably just as hard. Anyway, good to be back. Capt. MillerTalk 11:22, August 11, 2016 (UTC)

Re: BF1 Weapons
Goddamn. There's no Carcano. -- FluoxetinePatch (talk) 16:09, September 12, 2016 (UTC)


 * By the way, I probably should have told you this earlier, but the in-game weapon names are in the beta files (http://pastebin.com/fztDT4qh), which means we now have to rename and edit all the pages we just published. Additionally, there's still a couple of unknowns and leftovers I've seen;


 * Mle 1903, line 884 - My guess is it's an FN Model 1903 with a shoulder-stock for Tankers/Pilots.
 * Auto Revolver, line 897 - Probably either the Webley-Fosbery or the Mauser Zig-Zag.
 * Limpet Mine, line 441 - Another Assault gadget
 * Wrench, line 449 - For the Medic
 * Mortar (HE • Airburst • Smoke) , line 456 - Variants for the Support
 * Trench Shield, line 466 - God help us
 * Helmet Decoy, line 467 - OK that's pretty cool, though

There's probably a bunch of stuff I've missed in there, so peruse at will and let me know if you've got anything interesting. --FluoxetinePatch (talk) 18:03, September 12, 2016 (UTC)

Re: Vietnam WW2 Mod Page
It'll have to wait until the weekend, I'm afraid, so I can do some proper research on it since I never played it myself. Have you or anyone active you know of on the wiki played it? -- FluoxetinePatch (talk) 19:30, September 14, 2016 (UTC)

Re: BF1 Weapon Images

New Logo
Hello!

Brandon asked me to see what I could come up with in regards to a new logo, since I am the community representative currently assigned to assist with your community (this due to the upcoming release of Battlefield 1). I created a logo using the same font as the game logo and added a soft glow. I notice many appearances of the official logo has a darker outline on earlier lettering with lighter towards the right. I would be willing to make another attempt when I have more time, possibly next week if the one I uploaded today is not to your liking. Thanks! Pinkachu ( talk ) 18:31, September 16, 2016 (UTC)

Mossberg 5000 page
why did you revert my edit there

Been a Long Time...
So, it's the first message I've posted on your talk page (or anyone else's, even) in a long time. I've been getting around to editing in this wiki as often as possible again, even if I still don't have the drive and time that I did 5 years ago. I also just wanted to ask how you're doing, by the way? Looking forward to working with you again, and also to what's going to happen on September 26. Have a nice day!

Mess With The Best, Die Like The Rest 06:31, September 24, 2016 (UTC)

Just checking in
With the launch of Battlefied 1 fast approaching, I wanted to check in and see if there was anything you needed from us. Any questions or concerns? I can also help with editing if you need extra help, but so far, it looks like your community is helping out just fine which is awesome. :)

RE: BF1 Symthic Stats!
That was pretty quick. A lot of things have been popping up for the game now that we're in the week of its official release. Those things are exactly what we need to put on this wiki, so let's get to work doing that. And thank you for the notice, by the way.

RE: BF1 Weapon Navbox
I did what you asked. Take a look at it and see if anything needs adjusted. FluoxetinePatch (talk) 16:41, October 25, 2016 (UTC)

FluoxetinePatch (talk) 16:55, October 25, 2016 (UTC)
 * I've been thinking about that; do we really need a new page for every single entry? The table on the Codex mainpage already has the name, the image and the requirements - the only new content on the new pages would be the description. We could put that description in small text in one of the already existing columns. And if the page gets too large, we can split the sections into their own pages. (e.g. The Weapons, The War etc). What do you say?


 * Damn. So be it, then. FluoxetinePatch (talk) 17:11, October 25, 2016 (UTC)

RE:Vandalism
Hey Awyman,

Thank you for letting me know. I have globally blocked the accounts. --Callofduty4 (talk) 05:41, November 4, 2016 (UTC)

Re: Yo
Working on it! I'll step things up once I get my 1060, my BF1 is neither screenshot or video worthy atm. Just doing some quality of life stuff for the older entries right now, and finally finishing that damn MC playthrough (be glad you've never seen the last two levels, they are a hell of a slough). -06:11, November 7, 2016 (UTC)


 * Saw that, good work so far! One thing I wanted to bring up though is that I would like to suggest we sort the weapon variants like we did for the BF3 pistols and BF4 pickups, most of the weapons do not have significantly drastic changes that warrant a separate infobox imo, it's usually just spread and recoil changes. Exceptions work for stuff like the 1903 with the Pedersen and the Howdah Sweeper, but otherwise it just kinda clutters things up. -06:24, November 7, 2016 (UTC)

Discussions activity feed
Hello. I just wanted to pass along some information in case you didn't know about it. You can replace the Discussions footer on the main page with a feed instead. Instructions on how to use and deploy the feed can be found in Help:Discussions activity feed. To remove the footer module on the mainpage, you would just add the below code to your wikia.css.

A Couple of Years
Wow hey! I just realised i used to be on the Battlefield Wiki...alot. Just don't mind me, i'm here reminiscing before i disable my account for good. How's everything been? i haven't played a Battlefield game since 4 came out awhile back.

Zephalian (  Dossier  ) (  Briefing  ) 09:37, December 28, 2016 (UTC)

Yeah, got some not so good memories of another wiki i used to edit so I came back to remind myself of the good old days with you, Pedro, 3RDRANGER, Eden, Yuri, Bond, Maxwell, Slopi, Pete, DEath and many more. I can't believe its been two Battlefields + Battlefront! Been so busy with life I guess. College started this year! How's everything on your end?

Vehicle images in BF1
Hi! Right now i was looking for unused files in my HDD and found folder \Documents\Battlefield 1\twinkle\assets. There are images for all battlepack items, you can unllock and, more usefull, large images (1024*256) for items you already have. So we can add this pics in our articles. I'll add A7V, but I don'tplay much, so I have not unlocked many items. Can you look in this folder and add some pics for vehicles?

Vad9477 (talk) 07:06, December 31, 2016 (UTC)

Transcripts
I think it would be a good idea to add more transcripts for the levels in the Battlefield series. We only have transcripts for the Bad Company games as of now. I wouldn't mind making them myself, but would they be helpful at all? As much as I think they're important, I don't want to waste my time making them if they're not worth making. ToonToons22 (talk) 15:18, December 31, 2016 (UTC)

Re:
Actually not. I only  have  pics  for batllepack items (yet). The possible solution is to replace MkV image to more neutral (like in A7V or Art.truck) when it will be available.

Infobox design
Hi Awyman,

I understood you are currently designing the infoboxes on this wiki. We don't know each other, but I would love to help with that. I have been on this wiki for years, and a long time ago all infoboxes looked like Template:Infobox/Map as it looks now. I personally love that design: it's so nice and clear and perfectly fits the wiki. I was impressed and inspired by it. Then, many infoboxes were changed to what template:infobox/vehicle currently looks like: unoriginal, boring and fat. I left a message somewhere here about how disappointed I was, but I was ignored.

I have years and years of experience with templates, with normal wikitext and Lua. I have been designing several wikis like w:c:moderncombat and w:c:insurgency. Please check out the infoboxes on those wikis (w:c:moderncombat:AK47, w:c:insurgency:M4A1) I noticed this wiki is now using portable infoboxes for the weapon infobox, but not for others. Right now there are at least three styles of infoboxes, of which some look like they're just not finished. I would like to help designing them. I can provide the CSS and help with standardizing the templates. I have helped out a lot of wikis by doing this, and I would be honoured to help building the Battlefield wiki. (Btw, I'm a big fan of Battlefield).

Greetings, and thanks in advance,

 * The CSS is under construction. You can copy&paste @import "/load.php?articles=User:Ysbert/wikia.css&only=styles&mode=articles"; into your personal CSS to see the changes. These changes are visible in all Portable infoboxes such as the weapon infobox.

Re: Infobox design
Done! I fixed some bugs and set up the site CSS. The infobox can be seen here: w:c:ysbert:infobox/weapon/battlefield. I made the background the same colour so you can see how it'll look like.

All you have to do now is replace all PortableInfobox CSS with the top part of w:c:ysbert:MediaWiki:Wikia.css.

ysbert 💬 📝 20:43, January 25, 2017 (UTC)


 * Hi, I'm sorry for spamming you, but I'd like to ask you to implement the CSS. From then, I can start updating the infoboxes to PortableInfoboxes, which improves the loading speed, the mobile support, overall consistency, the appearance, and more. Thanks in advance! ysbert 💬 📝 19:14, January 31, 2017 (UTC)

Not Dead
Heyo! Sorry I've been away for a while, BF1 hasn't been doing much to capture my attention between DICE still not figuring out the damn Server rental system and there not being much in the way of new content. I'll just be doing some running around for some of the older games for now and see if TWNP manages to get me back into it. Point me where you need me if there's anything I can do. -22:22, January 25, 2017 (UTC)

Re: CSS
In this wiki's CSS, there's a section called "portable infoboxes", right above "highlighted usernames list". Everything in the portable infoboxes section should be replaced by the first section of w:c:ysbert:MediaWiki:Wikia.css, I marked it with "battlefield infobox". ysbert 💬 📝 07:30, February 15, 2017 (UTC)

Hey
Thanks for the heads up around the guidelines for the BF1 wiki. If there is a full set of rules/guidelines for contributions accessible anywhere, it would be great if you could let me know where to find it!

On a side note, from your response, I take it that you didn't really look at my contribution before deleting it. The video I linked was almost entirely based on an in depth analysis and discussion of the gun's stats and so it confused me a little when you criticised it as being subjective. I guess the point I'm trying to make is that if you take on the role of self-appointed boss of all pages linked to Battlefield, at least don't base your decisions on pre-judgements. If you had actually looked at my contribution and based your decision on that, it would have been a different matter but as it stands, I think your response was rather rude.

That having been said, I appreciate your efforts and dedication to providing comprehensive info to fans of the Battlefield franchise. - Unsigned Comment by RogueN9 18 February 2017

A problem with Autoloading 8 .25 Extended Image
The file File:Autoloading 8 Extended.png seems to be wrong. It is used in Autoloading 8's infobox as both the image for the .35 Factory version and the .25 Extended version, and the Extended version clearly looks different from the Factory version by having a detachable magazine and a foregrip.

I would love to fix the file myself and, but unfortunately, I don't know how to get these images, and I don't actually own BF1 (I'm just a Battlefield enthusiast). --Wuzh (talk) 04:42, April 10, 2017 (UTC)
