Hi
Could you give me a link to the CQC Trophies list please, I just need to verify your sources.--21:43, June 2, 2012 (UTC)

I actually didn't add those. They were already there. Sorry for any confusion.

Weapons Template
Those do not belong in ammunition as they were referring to actual hand grenades, not ammunition to any launchers. -- awyman13  {Talk } {Work } 19:37, June 20, 2013 (UTC)
 * I see where you're coming from, but 25 millimeters is much too small for a hand grenade, and is a round fired by the XM25 grenade launcher. Here on wikipedia: 25mm Grenade

Bondpedia would be proud. Awesome images, all of which are properly licensed! Im curious to where you obtained them though. --  awyman13  Talk Work 04:12, November 30, 2013 (UTC)

Trusted User

 * No worries. When Awyman suggested your name, I looked up your edits and they more than speak for themselves. You're an asset to the community - and right now, you're top of the achievements leaderboard, so keep it up! - 22:00, December 3, 2013 (UTC)

Sig & Shark Re:
Actually PLR figured it out from me. Since i did not want to keep explaining it, i created this blog. If you need more help feel free to ask.

On the shark matter however, its not like i wouldve been able to take credit anyway there is no way to determine who found it first, not to mention if that actually is Megalodon. -- 17:57, December 17, 2013 (UTC)
 * Yes, Awyman helped me (and everyone else via that blog post) create the template. It looks like he's got you covered. If not, let him or I know. :) 20:23, December 17, 2013 (UTC)

Siege Image
Apologies. I listed where I found it but clearly that wasn't the original source, as you have shown. I have altered the licensing and notified the copyright owner accordingly. Thanks for pointing out my mistake... - 21:44, December 19, 2013 (UTC)

Could you possibly go on the chat for a bit to discuss a few article inconsistencies..?

Favor
I am in the process of separating the Battlefield 4 Assignments page into three pages: Battlefield 4 Singleplayer Assignments, Battlefield 4 Multiplayer Assignments, and Battlefield 4 DLC Assignments. Considering all the coding on the page, it would literally take me forever to do this on my smartphone and alas I have no access to a desktop.

Can you separate the SP and MP assignments on those respective pages (rename our current bf4 assignment page to bf4 mulitplayer assignments) as well as delete the remaining DLC assignments on the page? I would really appreciate it if you did. -- 07:07, December 21, 2013 (UTC)

Great Thanks. Think you could separate the Premium assignments on the BF3 assignment page into Battlefield 3 Premium Assignments like you did with BF4? -- 18:31, December 21, 2013 (UTC)

All individual assignment pages are to be deleted or redirected -- 17:48, December 22, 2013 (UTC)

Formatting error
I dont what you did but I fixed it. I just copied the source from a past revision before it was messed up and replaced it with the current. As such you dont need to be an admin. Since I did this, those typos need to be fixed again. Careful not to mess up the source. -- 21:37, December 21, 2013 (UTC)

Thanks, it should save us a lot of time.   X-Alt Click 04:10, December 22, 2013 (UTC)

RE: Anons
Thanks for letting me know. I'll take care of it. 15:25, December 22, 2013 (UTC)

RPK-12
I thought we already went over the fact that the article would not be split? See the Talk page. 23:18, December 22, 2013 (UTC)

Re:
Sorry for late response. Uh, I honestly didn't perceive much baseless hostility, so I don't think you need to apologize. Юра  02:07, December 24, 2013 (UTC)

Re: Xbox One
Sure, will do. 18:04, December 25, 2013 (UTC)

Re: Images
No problem. Just got a capture card for Christmas, so I'll be trying to get some stuff put up for MC and BC1. Always happy to help! -05:20, December 26, 2013 (UTC)
 * Thanks! -00:27, December 29, 2013 (UTC)

Spoiler Template
Hey, just trying to get rid of the interactivity of the template. I want a static template, none of the "click-to-reveal" stuff. I'm currently messing with it (as you can see), seems like it might have to do the MediaWiki:Common.css page as well. 02:39, December 29, 2013 (UTC)

Re: Re:
That's perfect man, meet me in chat. 04:24, December 29, 2013 (UTC)
 * Alright man, peace. :) 06:25, December 29, 2013 (UTC)

my edit on M142
on that page was my edit incorrect I might have been due to me only playing once on Zavod 311 conquest once.--Xeno126 (talk) 21:09, December 29, 2013 (UTC)

also should we combine the texture and sound glitch on bf4 as they both happen at the start of the match--Xeno126 (talk) 21:12, December 29, 2013 (UTC)

Test
This is a test. 03:55, December 30, 2013 (UTC)

Re
They just need to fit infoboxes. Many of the photos arent wide enough, if you see what im saying. -- 21:27, January 2, 2014 (UTC)


 * You may have to go hunting -- 21:37, January 2, 2014 (UTC)

Knife Overhaul
How would you feel on helping me with a knife overhaul? My plan is to combine all knife pages into the Knife page as they are all essentially the same. -- 22:43, January 2, 2014 (UTC)

Just as you described. -- 23:08, January 2, 2014 (UTC)

Lets also separate the Takedown and Counter Knife on the page and put it on Knife Takedown. That has always bugged me. -- 23:24, January 2, 2014 (UTC)

Re: BF2MC images
The MEC only appears in Multiplayer, (Well, they're technically in the singleplayer as The Burning Flag, but you still don't have access to their weapons,) and the only platform that multiplayer is still online for MC is on PS2. I only have the game on Xbox 360, so I'm afraid I can't get images for them at the moment. Sorry! -23:17, January 2, 2014 (UTC)


 * By the way, thanks for cleaning up some of the stuff I added. I've been kind of adding things in bulk, guess I wasn't paying enough attention at some points.

Who gave you permission to separate the BF3 page into subpages? -- 17:17, January 4, 2014 (UTC)

Dogtags edit
When I was editing dogtags I don't know why when I added a gallery it deleted all the old pictures. Thankyou for highlighting this.

Zcoot (talk) 20:36, January 4, 2014 (UTC)

RE: Licensing
Thank you for the heads up on the license information. Before I make anymore mistakes is it possible you can send me a link to the policy page?

Zcoot (talk) 22:10, January 4, 2014 (UTC)

Hello,

So as you would know I have uploaded about five pictures as so far and you have thankfully licensed them as EA's contents. I have just finished reading over the Wikia policy and the one question I do have is should I also put this license Template:Self as I took those screenshots my self?

Sorry if I am wasting your time, I just want to avoid legal troubles.

Yours sincerely, Zcoot.

Hello,

Thank you for explaining how the EA licensing works. I also figured out why things were randomly going missing when I was editing the page. The problem is that I was using visual editor and it cannot display things which aren't really text.

Yours sincerely, Zcoot.

Zcoot (talk) 21:38, January 5, 2014 (UTC)

Hey
Would you like to use the black infobox? -- 05:22, January 6, 2014 (UTC)

Infobox/black
Hey, if you want a matching infobox. Just use. It'll keep all content the same too, just use source. 12:36, January 6, 2014 (UTC)

Edit: Looks like Awyman beat me to it, haha. 12:37, January 6, 2014 (UTC)

If that's the case...
If it displayed automatically it would say I'm part of the news team. I'm reffering to badges like the one which says you are a trusted user.Hyperborrean22 (talk) 18:49, January 6, 2014 (UTC)
 * You would use the template on your User Page in that case.  18:54, January 6, 2014 (UTC)


 * Thanks man for that sandbox. You didn't have to do that yet you did! I'll begin analysing the code for variations so I can expand on it. I have a copy saved in word so you can delete it now. Once again, thank you, I appreciate it greatly. :) Hyperborrean22 (talk) 18:14, January 8, 2014 (UTC)

Thanks
Thanks for warning this user awhile ago. I have gone ahead and officially issued him a warning seeing that he did not heed your warning. Thanks again. 19:08, January 7, 2014 (UTC)

Re: Hey
No problem. Glad you showed up, though, it's hard to get anything done from my phone. That guy's going to need a block once one of the admins get here. 16:26, January 8, 2014 (UTC)


 * Already blocked. BTW you guys have to check all recent activity for any possible templates, portals, etc that were vandalized which there were -- 16:29, January 8, 2014 (UTC)

I blocked him. Just use rollback on his edits. Юра 17:08, January 8, 2014 (UTC)
 * I'll be personally going through every single edit of his to make sure it's been cleared out. Thanks for that, guys. 19:27, January 8, 2014 (UTC)

Got a job for ya
Basically all/most weapons and vehicles featured in BF 2142 full of subjective content, not to mention personal pronouns. What i would like you to do if you please is to remove all that content. Basically, if it tells you how to play, performance, tactics, etc. remove it. -- 03:05, January 12, 2014 (UTC)

Hey
How do I become a trusted user? I really want to but it doesn't say on the page what I have to specifficaly do to earn trust. As I type that I realise trust is something you earn via time, not activity... But sill! I want to ask. Hyperborrean22 (talk) 18:09, January 21, 2014 (UTC)

BF4 Official Videos
We have been slacking in the vid department. We need to add videos and respective pages for all official videos found here as well as update the template. -- 19:01, January 21, 2014 (UTC)

Note
Hey arrow, if you ever find a page that only appears in one game, it does not need that games section heading. An example to that is the 2142 Assault rifle you just edited. The "Battlefield 2142" section heading should be removed. On another note, thanks for uploading the vids but do you plan on adding the info to pages? -- 20:50, January 21, 2014 (UTC)
 * Mmm, typically that only applies to 2142 items as they are completely fictional so we cant add real life background at the top like other pages. Also, 2000 EDTS! Congrats. -- 20:59, January 21, 2014 (UTC)

Re:
Looks like Awyman moved it for you. 12:28, January 22, 2014 (UTC)

Thanks
thanks man!Hyperborrean22 (talk) 18:55, January 22, 2014 (UTC)

Re
Merge them all but give each page their own section. I also see you merge the Ballistic scope pages. Just so ya know there are also pages P4F Ballistic Scope pages. -- 04:53, January 24, 2014 (UTC)
 * Already ahead of the blocking game -- 04:58, January 24, 2014 (UTC)


 * Tip Arrow - Weapon is a weapon featured in Battlefield or Vehicle is a vehicle featured in Battlefield. Get my drift? -- 05:26, January 24, 2014 (UTC)

It seems to me your over complicating things. Care to share your "plan". -- 17:52, January 24, 2014 (UTC)

That is why I had the Spec separate from the Coaxial pages. As such the BF3 & BF4 version of that page should also be listed on that page as they are the same. Also the page is not a disambig. When you asked me about merging, you never listed the Spec page so I said to merge them which is why the merging of the Spec page was surprising. Honestly I think you should just put the Spec page bsck to the way it was before you merged it. -- 18:06, January 24, 2014 (UTC)

WHAT! In that case we must find who did it and reseparate them -- 18:12, January 24, 2014 (UTC)

Being Stubborn
On the BF4 Video Overhaul forum you asked how it was offensive. It was offensive because I had made a similar post about a video which was uploaded from YouTube and had no relevance on this wiki. It was not offensive. It was not flamboyant. It was meant to start a discussion) It was stated for deletion by a user named "Ghost" (I haven't had the pleasure of meeting him yet.) and was deleted by Austin. Austin then went on to make that forum about a video overhaul. Whilst they weren't directly linked I felt it was offensive to me that within the same day my forum was deleted and replaced with Aywman's when there is still a forum about how to play Commander mode on PC whilst playing with 360 friends on the main page. I really didn't want to rant at you but Austin's comment that "It taken care of" is a bit dismissing to say the least and I wanted to give you a proper answer.--Hyperborrean22 (talk) 09:21, January 25, 2014 (UTC)

Being Submissive
Ok, I see what I did wrong know that someone has sat down and actually explained stuff to me. You're right when you say I'm a new guy (it's why I'm holding back on applying to be a trusted user as I feel I'm too inexperienced.) Although I still have one further question which I'm still going to ask.

How do I create a forum page which isn't on the main page. Awyman said he would move the "I'm confused" forum (which I should probably archive once I'm done here...) to an 'actuall forum'. I checked and there is only Sticky Threads, Active Threads and Archived Threads. So how on Earth do I keep a forum from being mainspace when the only non-mainpage option is to archive something which by nature must not be edited. Please tell me where to find the non-mainpage forum area so I don't have to break rules again.

Thanks again for clearing stuff up. I was being defensive and was being quite arogant of Awy... You fixed stuff up man. Hyperborrean22 (talk) 16:15, January 25, 2014 (UTC)

Oh ok... that's pretty much what I did with the second post. I'll just keep the help vs. rules thing in mind and I should be fine.Hyperborrean22 (talk) 16:34, January 25, 2014 (UTC)

Well then that confuses me seeing as I was trying to prelude to a community discussion about the topic.Hyperborrean22 (talk) 19:40, January 25, 2014 (UTC)

Is there a way to talk more hush hush then? (Or do I just need to use an external site?)

Oh, so that's why everyone says 'join chat'... Well that covers my questions for now but I'll probably have something new tomorrow as I think there was one more thing but it's late here and I can't remember. Thanks Alex.Hyperborrean22 (talk) 19:50, January 25, 2014 (UTC)

Conflicts
in Editing :P  20:18, January 25, 2014 (UTC)

A favour
Can you look at some code for me? I'm having trouble getting it to work.Hyperborrean22 (talk) 10:23, January 26, 2014 (UTC)

Three things.

1. Thank you. That was cool of you.

2. It's still missing the appearances category. Can you tell me how to fix it myself?

3. How did you even manage to fix that?

Also, just a heads up: If you ever see vandalism that is considered a major offense, sort of like what this Anon posted, immediately revert and notify an admin/bureaucrat, as it warrants a three-day block. 17:40, January 26, 2014 (UTC)

Square or semi-circle-thing.
Hey I was editing the vehicles on SoS and noticed that commander asset is in brakets e.g. (commander asset), whilst conquest large is in square brackets e.g. [conquest large]. any particular reason or can we regulate it?

p.s. it may be vice-versa but you get the picture. (it's late here so my memory is fuzzy...Hyperborrean22 (talk) 19:26, January 27, 2014 (UTC)

Glitches Subpages
Can you divide up the BF Series Glitches and Bugs page into sub pages like you did with the game pages. Then we can remove that ugly tabber. -- 20:42, January 27, 2014 (UTC)

RE: Chrome
I would appreciate that. Leave the code in my talk so I can add it myself. I feel bad getting people to make stuff for me but I'm not so good with the independant programming stuff... also on the topic of adding stuff myself. can you tell me how to protect a page so only i can edit it. i think some is vandalising my page. i keep finding broken sentences....
