This wiki's pretty dang empty! There's mainly just some one word to one line userpages that don't help much. I helped add to the main page, but we'll need more than that... H is for the H in Shadow Scythe 22:56, 29 August 2007 (MDT)

Any special reason we're on the 1.11alpha version of MediaWiki? That's pretty old... Bluebry 16:36, 31 August 2007 (MDT)
I'm not even certain what this wiki is for? Wiki User fanstuff? Meta information on the fanstuff wiki, like the wiki forum wiki was? Both? Shwoo 19:29, 3 September 2007 (MDT)

This wiki's pretty dang full!

I think we should start categorizing stuff now. -Stinkoman K20x6!! 11:44, 23 February 2008 (MST)

Protection Needed

Wuw/wuw/index.php needs to be blanked and protected to prevent the spambot from striking again. --ÆAUSSIEevilÆTC/ 11:00, 29 February 2008 (MST)

Createing stuff

Does the part about you only editing your user page mean you can't make your own stuff?--Userunknown 18:44, 26 March 2008 (MDT)

Um...People have made fanstuff. I think that means if you have some error in your page, only you can fix it. Chaos 18:47, 26 March 2008 (MDT)

No.On the main page it says that.So, I can make fanstuff?--Userunknown 18:50, 26 March 2008 (MDT)

YES! OTHER PEOPLE HAVE! Chaos 18:56, 26 March 2008 (MDT)
Chaos, please refraim from shouting at new users. 124.177.146.28 14:20, 30 March 2008 (MDT)

Oh, I see what you mean. It says you can only edit your own userpage. As in, you can't edit other people's. MeTK2lK.pngrEqWIWX.png 16:02, 27 March 2008 (MDT) Hey, IP dude.I'm not really new.I'm from the fanstuff wiki.--Userunknown 14:22, 30 March 2008 (MDT)

It's not really yelling if you can't hear it. Can you hear me yelling, Userunknown? Chaos 19:02, 30 March 2008 (MDT)
Shouting - capital letters. You don't have to write it in all caps. It's like me saying: "NO CHAOS I'M NOT USING THAT BANNER FROM WIKIHOOD". Not on, and could be taken as an attack or in offense. --«įńđīçąŧōŗ» ©'07 c 02:32, 31 March 2008 (MDT)
No. You CAN'T create new stuff. We have a special system in place where only the BEST users get to create fanstuff. You can join in, though, and maybe one day you, too, could create fanstuff. Alas, for you now, it is a bannable offense.
Seriously, people who would believe that don't DESERVE to make fanstuff.-Chwoka 11:55, 31 March 2008 (MDT)
Yeah, that statement kind of goes against every foundation of the wiki concept ever. DonZabu 17:41, 31 March 2008 (MDT)
You guys suck. One new user makes ONE TINY misconception, and you yell at him saying that THE EXACT SAME THING YOU'RE YELLING AT HIM ABOUT will happen. What is wrong with you? {grumbling} Freaking hypocrites... Im a bell 11:55, 20 April 2008 (MDT)

I don't know how but it's really bad!It takes up two pages of the forum!--Userunknown 18:06, 31 March 2008 (MDT)
Some of it has been on as early as January. What the fudge? DonZabu 18:43, 31 March 2008 (MDT)
I would, if I could remember my password!-Chwoka 17:24, 1 April 2008 (MDT)
You can't remember your own password? But how do you get on the wiki everyday if you can't remember your password? O_o - O hai thar, guy with style.\\‪‪‪Nebs//Greetings, Earthling. 01:38, 2 April 2008 (MDT)
No, the forums password.-Chwoka 08:17, 2 April 2008 (MDT)
Here's what I tell everyone. One; Write it down. Two; "Remember password" Not that hard. Three; Choose an easy password that only you could think of. Im a bell 21:12, 2 April 2008 (MDT)
Basically, think of something that only you think you could think of, write it in the password bit and see if it works. =D - O hai thar, guy with style.\\‪‪‪Nebs//Greetings, Earthling. 00:57, 3 April 2008 (MDT)
So, you had to shut down the forum? I was expecting that. Donzabusprite.PNGDonZabuDonzabuspriteghost.PNG

Protection

Uh...someone mind protecting Wuw/index.php and Wuw/wuw/index.php? 'cos bots keep spamming stuff in those two pages. - Znex 15:46, 6 April 2008 (MDT)

If Chwoka can do it...

Is the word d**n permitted? Lucas Aura 19:12, 21 April 2008 (MDT)

I'm not sure. This wiki isn't as popular as the Fanstuff Wiki, and the users are older, so I think that it's not as enforced as much as in the Fanstuff. Sephiroth 13:27, 25 April 2008 (MDT)
You read my talk page, didn't you?--Userunknown!Games Banner.PNG 14:28, 25 April 2008 (MDT)

*eye twitch*

Um, I'm trying to upload an image, but the server won't let me. It just has this message;

The file is corrupt or has an incorrect extension. Please check the file and upload again.

It's not corrupt, and the file has a correct extension. WHAT IS GOING ON? Im a bell 17:17, 25 April 2008 (MDT)

That happens to me, too.Try making a new copy of it.--Userunknown!Games Banner.PNG 17:32, 25 April 2008 (MDT)
Still doesn't work... Im a bell 17:49, 25 April 2008 (MDT)

Does it just say The file is corrupt or has an incorrect extension. Please check the file and upload again. or does it say anything else?--Userunknown!Games Banner.PNG 17:53, 25 April 2008 (MDT)

Also, are you sure communisum is allowed to be metioned on the wiki?--Userunknown!Games Banner.PNG 18:18, 25 April 2008 (MDT)

I can't upload stuff, too!Mayby there's something wrong with the upload system.--Userunknown!Games Banner.PNG 18:37, 25 April 2008 (MDT)

It seems to only do that for pngs. MeTK2lK.pngrEqWIWX.png 06:22, 26 April 2008 (MDT)

Yeah.Try jpg.It worked for me but I had to save the picture all over again in paint.--Userunknown!Games Banner.PNG 06:35, 26 April 2008 (MDT)

Uh, jpg ruins the look. It's only for photos and stuff. MeTK2lK.pngrEqWIWX.png 07:39, 26 April 2008 (MDT)
Um, I'll try GIFs. I figured out how to make it not-crap... Im a bell 14:36, 26 April 2008 (MDT)
We need to fix this somehow. Lucas Aura 06:37, 27 April 2008 (MDT)

Now it won't take jpg!--Userunknown!Games Banner.PNG 12:51, 27 April 2008 (MDT)

...Well, are we gonna fix this!? Lucas Aura 14:14, 2 May 2008 (MDT)

What are you talking about? JPG still works. MeTK2lK.pngrEqWIWX.png17:03, 2 May 2008 (MDT)

I brought the problem to Super Sam at the Fanstuff. Now we play the waiting game. Chaos 09:13, 3 May 2008 (MDT)

Alright, I'm going to go update MediaWiki in order to fix some of the problems going around, so be prepared for some downtime. - Super Sam 19:57, 3 May 2008 (MDT)

Just wondering...

Should we have a Fanstuff of the (insert time here, like Week, Two Weeks, or Month)? Because the wiki has gotten off the ground floor, and is starting to buzz with activity, as 2nd Generation Users migrate over. It's just a suggestion. TheStick 17:12, 3 May 2008 (MDT)

We should start with FOTW like the HRFWiki did. Lucas Aura 06:36, 4 May 2008 (UTC)
Okay. Should it be of the Month or Week? 20:17, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
Let's start with two weeks. It'll give newer users the feel of the old HRFWiki. Lucas Aura 21:01, 8 May 2008 (UTC)

We'll call it Fanstuff of the Fortnight. Which design do you like best? Fanstuff of the Fortnight Fanstuff of the Fortnight Fanstuff of the Fortnight Donzabusprite.PNGDonZabuDonzabuspriteghost.PNG

{Gets Smash Ball and Sekiha Tenkyokens Colons} I like 1. 3, we can save for when we get to FOTM. Lucas Aura 04:07, 11 May 2008 (UTC)
I like 2. 1 Seems little too.. Unprofessional, while 3, I can't really read it that well. 2, kinda reminds me of Hollywood. Maybe, something like the Hollywood stars? Sephiroth 10:14, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

Like this:

File:FOTF Hollywood Star Suggestion.png

The Gold Icons Represent what kind of fanstuff it is. The NES is for Videogames, the Paper for Text Fanstuff, and the Star for Misc. The blank ones, are so you can make one.


Sephiroth 11:17, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

How about 2 for Fortnight, and we save 1 for FOTW, and 3 for FOTM. Lucas Aura 13:06, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

The hollywood star suggestion is horribly-executed. Plus, even with great execution, I gotta go for DonZabu's first suggestion. Although, can we get it in some different colors? By the way, this isn't going to be official, right? Because none of you have the power to do that.-Chwoka 15:25, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

It's just my quick suggestion, the Star one. Sephiroth 15:41, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

Any trophy should have the words "Fanstuff of the Fortnight" on it in full. It looks less dumb that way. Any of these example trophies should have example fanstuffs on them as well. Feel free to go make this an official thing, as it's pretty much the users who are running this wiki. Just do it responsibly. - Super Sam 12:00, 12 May 2008 (UTC)

Let's not use a photo for the star thing... let me whip up an alternative. -ÆAUSSIEevilÆTC/ 15:42, 12 May 2008 (UTC)

Here's a little funfact. The Original star belonged to Micheal Jackson. >:D Sephiroth 18:38, 12 May 2008 (UTC)
Second FoTF design would be my choice. In fact, why not just hold the awards, and let the people pick what design they want if they win? Artisan of TortureThey call me Big T BLOODArtisan of Torture 21:04, 12 May 2008 (UTC)

So, it's Fanstuff of the Week? 17:40, 17 May 2008 (UTC)

No. Fanstuff of the 'Fortnight. That's 2 weeks. I also still hold my vote for the second design. Artisan of TortureThey call me Big T BLOODArtisan of Torture 00:42, 23 May 2008 (UTC)

FotF Design5.png
Here's a new design. The blank space is for badges denoting what type of Fanstuff it is, like the ones below.

Feedback? Donzabusprite.PNGDonZabuDonzabuspriteghost.PNG 02:11, 24 May 2008 (UTC)

Interesting. --Homestar tiger 02:14, 24 May 2008 (UTC)
That's better. =D - Znex 04:02, 24 May 2008 (UTC)
They shouldn't have badges. They should just have the name of the fanstuff. Artisan of TortureThey call me Big T BLOODArtisan of Torture 16:58, 24 May 2008 (UTC)
Nah, too many images to upload. Plus, the names are often much longer than the image space would allow. Donzabusprite.PNGDonZabuDonzabuspriteghost.PNG 19:03, 24 May 2008 (UTC)
Make small text. Artisan of TortureThey call me Big T BLOODArtisan of Torture 19:11, 24 May 2008 (UTC)
Regardless, I don't think it would look right in any circumstance. Let's hear someone else's opinion on the badge idea. Donzabusprite.PNGDonZabuDonzabuspriteghost.PNG 22:43, 24 May 2008 (UTC)

I'm begining to think that we should set a deadline for the creation of FotF, just to finally put an end to all this bickering. May 31 perhaps. Donzabusprite.PNGDonZabuDonzabuspriteghost.PNG 22:43, 24 May 2008 (UTC)

Ok, we'll create the page by Tuesday, and begin voting on the 28th, ending on the 31st. Donzabusprite.PNGDonZabuDonzabuspriteghost.PNG 00:22, 25 May 2008 (UTC)
Very well. Case dismissed. {Bangs a gavel} Bring on the dancing lobster! {the dancing lobster from the Amanda show appear and everyone dances} Artisan of TortureThey call me Big T BLOODArtisan of Torture 00:33, 25 May 2008 (UTC)

Amanda, manda manda manda manda nooooo! MeTK2lK.pngrEqWIWX.png 03:03, 25 May 2008 (UTC)
Maybe if you put the name, you put it on the very bottom, like on the Fanstuff of the Month? 16:49, 25 May 2008 (UTC)

Fixes

Uploading and signatures have been fixed. For any other problems, contact me on my talk page, as I get an email whenever somebody edits it. - Super Sam 06:48, 4 May 2008 (UTC)

You're the best, Samburger! MeTK2lK.pngrEqWIWX.png 17:31, 4 May 2008 (UTC)

When I log off. the logo works, but when I log on, it doesn't. Why is that? 01:28, 15 May 2008 (UTC)

Maybe because of your Monobook? SuperfieldCreditUnion
I didn't edit it! It's raw and and empty. 15:01, 17 May 2008 (UTC)

Protect Main Page

We really ought to protect the main page like how it's protected on the Knowledge Base and Fanstuff Wiki. SuperfieldCreditUnion

I say we should semi-protect this page, too. Im a bell 20:58, 21 May 2008 (UTC)
The main page is already semi-protected. That's good enough. Although, I agree we should do the same with this page, too. MeTK2lK.pngrEqWIWX.png 00:53, 22 May 2008 (UTC)

Fanstuff of the Fortnight

Here it is.
Important people, please review it and offer suggestions for improvement. Donzabusprite.PNGDonZabuDonzabuspriteghost.PNG 02:42, 25 May 2008 (UTC)

Well, don't you think it's a little early? I mean, there's not a lot of fanstuff here, so it will either end up like Fanstuff of the Week(too many winners) or Fanstuff of the Month(not enough winners). MeTK2lK.pngrEqWIWX.png 02:59, 25 May 2008 (UTC)
Perhaps you're right. I'll remove it from the awards page for now. Donzabusprite.PNGDonZabuDonzabuspriteghost.PNG 03:35, 25 May 2008 (UTC)
Oops, sorry, but I... kinda spoofed it up, and fixed some things, not reading this post. Should I undo it? 17:56, 25 May 2008 (UTC)

Fanstuff of the Fortnight: Now or Later?

I'm calling a vote on whether or not we should allow FotF to become active. The poll ends Monday, June 2.

Now
Later

FotF now OPEN!

I can see it's a pretty uninamous opinion. Forget the deadline, nominations are now officially open. Donzabusprite.PNGDonZabuDonzabuspriteghost.PNG 20:17, 31 May 2008 (UTC)
Nominate here.

Strange Error

I'm trying to edit a page, specifically Artdown/Share. I was trying to edit the size of an image posted their. Whenever I try and edit it, or even press the preview button, I get the following error.

Iamerror.PNG

Any ideas? Donzabusprite.PNGDonZabuDonzabuspriteghost.PNG 22:56, 2 June 2008 (UTC)

Did you really have to take it out completely? MeTK2lK.pngrEqWIWX.png 23:17, 2 June 2008 (UTC)
It was already way too big, and I couldn't resize it without error. Donzabusprite.PNGDonZabuDonzabuspriteghost.PNG 00:40, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

Oh, boy.

We have another vandal. I presume he's from the Spriter's Resource Forums, I showed them some fan projects, and he looks like he got steamed. Blockage in need. Artisan of TortureThey call me Big T BLOODArtisan of Torture 02:38, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

I got him. Lucas Aura 11:01, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

Wikimon

I am thinking about doing something with Wiki Users collecting Pokemon in a game. Has that already been done? Myself and I 22:28, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

A quick look around the wiki would tell you no. Go ahead and do it. SuperfieldCreditUnion
Already started. You wanna join?Myself and I 22:56, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
I did. So, what are we supposed to do after we choose our pokemon? MeTK2lK.pngrEqWIWX.png 00:28, 12 June 2008 (UTC)
You didn't get a starter yet. Go to the lab and then go to the field to catch pokemon. Then you could try going to the Gym and challenge the leader. Myself and I 01:36, 12 June 2008 (UTC)

Blockquote support?

Do we even have that here? If not, how come? - SKUB ? 22:24, 28 June 2008 (UTC)
