Re Huzzah

Yeah it was a chore to get propper edits in on time every day, post to soon and it's another post in the same day to late & you're back to day one. I almost had it twice before then got distracted. Any way thank you for the kind recognition.

Sound files

Do you have access to the GECK and are you familiar with the FO3 archive utility? If you do, can I get you to join the quote sound files project? It's a lot of work where more hands make it a lot lighter. Jspoel Speech Jspoel 13:49, June 22, 2013 (UTC)

I trust we understand each other.

FO2Enclaveflags

Enclavesymbol 04:50, June 24, 2013 (UTC)

So almost every other faction page gets to bear a flag image of some sort, despite having much more 'suitable' emblems akin to them... and the Enclave page is the one exception. Smells bad to me, especially since that FO2 image clearly orchestrates further symbolism... obvious symbolism. Enclavesymbol 04:59, June 24, 2013 (UTC)

Re: Paladins

I'm glad I could help, and the nickname doesn't bother me at all. It's very fitting. 69.125.134.190 23:22, June 24, 2013 (UTC)

Who let the dogs out

Don't you think it's worth noting that all of Old Lady Gibson's dogs are Spanish words? --Skire (talk) 00:58, June 25, 2013 (UTC)

I mean it's not essential, but nonetheless good to note IMO. If it were just one dog that ostensibly is named by a word in some foreign language, then there is no relevance and no need to mention. But since this is the case for all the dogs I think it is indeed noteworthy. Thanks for understanding though =) --Skire (talk) 01:06, June 25, 2013 (UTC)

Trolls

I'm sorry I didn't get home in time, good job handling those trolls.--TwoBearsHigh-Fiving Intercom01 06:53, June 25, 2013 (UTC)

New Vegas Lucky Shades

Do you know how to edit the message at the top of the Lucks Shades (Fallout: New Vegas) page? It says, "This page is about the lucky shades in Fallout 3..." and I'm not sure how to fix it. 69.125.134.190 17:45, June 25, 2013 (UTC)

Never mind. Someone just fixed it. 69.125.134.190 17:48, June 25, 2013 (UTC)

Nico and Obama

They are one and the same user. So they should both have the same chat ban length, right? Jspoel Speech Jspoel 20:28, June 25, 2013 (UTC)

Capitol building and Nuka Cola Plant

The Enclave will appear after The Waters of Life at the Capitol Building regardless of whether Broken Steel is installed or not. This was corrected on the article which is why I didn't get back to you. I'll check the Nuka Cola Plant right now. 69.125.134.190 04:52, June 26, 2013 (UTC)

The Enclave camp will appear outside the Nuka Cola Plant regardless of whether the player has Broken Steel or not, just like with the Capitol Building. I couldn't find a script that spawned them after the Waters of Life though. 69.125.134.190 05:00, June 26, 2013 (UTC)

Muggy S.P.E.C.I.A.L.

It was correct before with "5" Luck, so I changed it back. 69.125.134.190 19:02, June 28, 2013 (UTC)

Yeah, he just changed Father Elijah too, so I'll start checking everything. 69.125.134.190 19:07, June 28, 2013 (UTC)
I just checked his edits, and they were all incorrect. I'm really not sure if he/she is vandalizing or is just confused about stats/karma. 69.125.134.190 19:16, June 28, 2013 (UTC)

Best Trumpet Player

I talked to a Coworker of mine, who is a trumpet player, who he thought was a better trumpet player between Miles Davis and Louis Armstrong. I did not say anything more or less. He said that while Miles Davis is cooler, Louis Armstrong is the better Trumpet player. <br\> OnionRings (talk) 21:38, June 28, 2013 (UTC)

Vendotron

Sure. I'll check it right now. 69.125.134.190 01:10, June 29, 2013 (UTC)

The Vendotron is not marked as essential, so that user was correct in editing it and removing the note. 69.125.134.190 01:13, June 29, 2013 (UTC)

Stat Changes

He/she was incorrect to change Hanlon's page. He's also making other incorrect changes right now. And I knew the archiving didn't work. I'll try and fix it sometime. 69.125.134.190 18:50, June 30, 2013 (UTC)

Notable Loot

Not offended, just curious for future editing, what would count as notable loot? I presumed cherry bombs counted for crafting purposes and relative rarity. Drake Clawfang (talk) 02:18, July 7, 2013 (UTC)

Alright then, I thought cherry bombs would be considered rare but it seems no. Thanks. Drake Clawfang (talk) 03:27, July 7, 2013 (UTC)

tibbets

The tibbets design doc is a source for F2 where it offers F2 locations. This design document differs from others by quoting f2 documents to instruct designers on how to create design documents. Agent c (talk) 14:11, July 8, 2013 (UTC)

Project

Sorry for taking long to respond. The project really isn't necessary. As long as the base S.P.E.C.I.A.L. is included in most pages, which it is, there's no need for the project so long as everyone understands that the base S.P.E.C.I.A.L. may change in-game. 69.125.134.190 20:59, July 10, 2013 (UTC)

2nd person

I hear what you wrote, and Godz help me please, I do NOT want to get into another conflict after the night I have had. Still I beg your patience to consider this, please ?

  • Standardization throughout the page for articles is the best policy as it makes the page read as a clearly unified presentation of that page.

The discussion page and or blogs relating to the articles of course should be more relaxed to relate personal gamers experiences to make a point, but the end result articles should flow as a unit. Published Bugs & Notes should be formatted to suit the page.

Notes, Bugs and Interactions with the player character sections would all be best displayed under the same logical guideline that it is the player character or proper given title for the game's protagonist that dose things IN GAME.

I, you and or the player can only play the game, reset the game or load DLC ect. You can not be killed and no faction will turn hostile to the player because we do not exist in the game.

Fan fiction & blogs are pure story line and so we can put ourselves in the first person there but in game actions are performed by in game entities.

I hope you will take some time, consider what I wrote here and perhaps present it to our community along with your veiws of this logic. So we may all discuss it for the betterment of Nukapedia.

With respect SaintPain TinySaintPainJust here to help."

I took no offence.

I have read those same guidlines.

  • I was hoping you might take my points more to heart and even be the voice of this cause. A page that reads top to bottom with the only exceptions of "literal quotes" or stated word for word references should be in 2nd person as the player characters action really has no efffect on the player other than entertainment.
  • The player dose not do anything in game. The Player character is in game.

You, me and I are designations for the player aka game user. We control what the player character dose. The Player character is our game avatar and unless there is a referance like a direct quotation the most proper description of actions and environments relating to the player's avatar is 2nd person.

Notes and walkthroughs should be as unified to the rest of the page as much possible.

Over 90% of most all our Nukapedia game play articles are 2nd person veiws of what the player character might do. Breaking between 1st and 2nd person adds confusion and or at best is a distaction from the article's point due to the disruption of continuity.

The guidline should be changed to reflect this fact and I would support you if you brought this forward for the site to consider as a change that would make all articles a better read. That is our ultimate goal.

If you support this idea please feel free to reword it and post it for site discussion ~;D

Hey Richie. Just letting you know that reverting boosting edits like those is not necessary, since boosting edits don't make a difference to the page, neither will reverting them (at least in this case). You can just alert an administrator about questionable editing. But I'll leave it at your discretion - this is just a tip. --Skire (talk) 20:56, July 12, 2013 (UTC)

Twin Mothers

Saw your message, the quote I left is copied word for word from the in-game subtitles. On the subject of their fate which isn't exactly elaborated on other than the fact that they no longer exist and the legion has made extensive use of one of their main recipes, but judging by their pacifist nature in the van buren materials would they have any choice but to submit? I guess it's likely the men would be killed due to their lack of combat training but it's probable the legion would take the women and children no?--Swampshade (talk) 00:47, July 14, 2013 (UTC)

Your correct that Ulysses isn't completely specific but We do know however that they met their end at the hands of the Legion one way or another so it should be noted somewhere on the wiki right?--Swampshade (talk) 00:51, July 14, 2013 (UTC)

Nathaniel Vargas

I'm experimenting. Check Agent c and my talkpage where we correspond about how the wiki looks on a mobile. When there are two project tags it takes up the whole screen which makes up for a first bad impression. I want to see how it looks if we move those tags to the talkpage (Gunny suggests this) and leave a 1 general tag on the article page, refering to the projects on the talkpage. I'm also considering just leaving categories, without tags. I believe the tags have little effect, and with the few people working on it, the category will be enough for reference...

Thompson's listed as Asian in the G.E.C.K.. There are other characters named "Mercenary" in-game, just like Thompson, that are Hispanic which could explain the confusion. 69.l25 (talk) 00:27, July 21, 2013 (UTC)

Sneaking companions

I'm working on how to determine if an companion will sneak when the player does just by looking at the G.E.C.K. so that I don't have to go in-game to check. I'll let you know when I get find out. 69.l25 (talk) 14:34, July 23, 2013 (UTC)

Why do you need to know this by the way? It would save me some time if its only for a note or something. 69.125.134.190 02:22, July 24, 2013 (UTC)

Oh okay. The humanoid Fallout 3 companions do sneak with the player like you said, and I'm unsure about DLC companions, so I'll look in to those. 69.l25 (talk) 02:31, July 24, 2013 (UTC)

None sneak in Anchorage, and Elliott Tercorien sneaks in Zeta. I know Somah doesn't sneak, but I'm not sure about Paulson and Elliott's teammates. If any of the notes from the other day conflict with that, feel free to remove them. 69.l25 (talk) 02:41, July 24, 2013 (UTC)

Sierra Madre chips strategy

Hi Richie. I noticed you trimmed a paragraph from my update on Sierra Madre chips, noting 'strategy'. I can understand if there is a policy against giving strategic gameplay advice in the general info pages. I'm not clear though why the cut paragraph (that chips have an effective cap value of 3 via stimpaks after Dead Money) is strategic, but not the preceding paragraph (that chips have an effective cap value of 10 via pre-war money during Dead Money). It seems that either both should remain, or both be cut as getting too much into strategy. Is there a criterion to tell the difference between these two? Thanks!

You may remember me from the incident with the Thump Thump page. I just wanted to know if people are still sore, or upset with me about that.

Don't put too much work in checking those bullet points. It's very low on the priority list as I see it anyway. I'd rather see your efforts elsewhere, like on soundfiles. Jspoel Speech Jspoel 21:26, August 1, 2013 (UTC)

Personally, I think removing them sometimes makes the page actually look worse, for example if the rest of the sections have bullet points and one section has not, or if the note is very small. Jspoel Speech Jspoel 21:45, August 1, 2013 (UTC)

Unnamed NPCs

The NPC's of the Citadel that are not named I believe need to be noted for the sake that they are part of the Brotherhood of Steel can be interacted with and have a purpose in the Citadel.

Ymir/Jotun

All information needs to be objective. I'm not saying that I think the reference isn't obvious, I'm saying that it doesn't matter what I think. It doesn't matter what I or any of us think about it, it matters what we know. And we don't know that there is correlation between the character and mythology. I really couldn't find anything saying that if enough people feel a reference is obvious that it should be included. 69.125.134.190 16:35, August 9, 2013 (UTC)

RE: Research Lab Gallery Pic

Hey, sorry the quality was so low. I wanted to prove it was real and not a PC mod so I took a pic of my TV screen (360). In hindsight I guess it's still not 100% proof, but I saw the debate on the talk page and wanted to settle it. Any suggestions? Zackthecleptomaniac (talk) 03:58, August 16, 2013 (UTC)

Why do you keep reverting the edits i'm putting on the Veronica and Christine pages?!? That is necessary information, it is very unlikely that it is speculation, as much of the information on Christine and Veronica said they were likely lovers when Dead Money was released.

Veronica and Christine

Elijah was the one who split up Veronica's relationship (read her page), and Christine's personal motive for wanting to kill Elijah was because she was separated from HER lover. It isn't a coincidence. Veronica and Christine were both referring to each other. There is no proof that it isn't so...but there a lot of proof proving it so.—Preceding unsigned comment added by Teresius the Dragonborn (talkcontribs). Please sign your posts with ~~~~!

NCR Trooper Inventory

Hi! Sorry to take so long to reply, but this is what I've found: generic troopers will spawn with a service rifle and knife. This is what most troopers will have even if they are specific to a location such as Camp McCarran, but there are some exceptions such as troopers in Primm. 69.125.134.190 20:41, August 25, 2013 (UTC)

Annexation of Canada

Not to come off as butthurt about your re-edit, but I thought an extrajudicial killing was defined the killing of a person by governmental authorities without the sanction of any judicial proceeding or legal process. Such as the case with Nguyễn Văn Lém in the Tet Offensive of Vietnam for example. In this case it'd be by the hands of annexing American forces, isn't it? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Christengo (talkcontribs). Please sign your posts with ~~~~!


About The Capitol Glitch

I went up the staircase, walked along the small ledge, and when I came to the rock/concrete chunk blocking it I managed to jump around it. I wasn't planning anything, it happened by pure luck. After following the ledge for a bit, I came another area that looked like it should have a staircase going up to it but it didn't. I jumped on the rubble from there, and left the wasteland into purgatory. I spoke with Jasper on the chat, and Fireburn as well. If you feel it should still be removed, then that is fine. --Night Mare Moon will spare you. This time... (talk) 20:25, August 29, 2013 (UTC)

Hannibal Hamlin

Hey Richie. I think that the note Peace N' Hugs added on Hamlin's page is valid. The AI causes him to override what was specifically stated in his dialogue. Incidentally, he will equip the repeater as well, but as I recall he states outright that it is his intention to use it, so it's not notable. Because his actions are the opposite of his dialogue, I think it's a noteworthy inclusion. What do you think? FollowersApocalypseLogoōrdō āb chao 00:34, October 30, 2013 (UTC)

Lions and tigers and socks, oh my!

Not sure if you noticed, but the man behind the curtain on those socks was Swaggers. I blocked him for 3 days, and with Leon, perma'd all his socks. I got all the ones IP check linked to his Swaggers account, maybe check the block log and make sure we got them all? The Gunny  380px-USMC-E7 svg 20:36, November 4, 2013 (UTC)

Chat conduct guideline changes

Hey Richie. In light of Saint Pain's chat ban and after some discussion with Leon and J I've decided to do some minor re-writes to the chat conduct guideline page. Basically what I'm looking to do is:

  • Remove the current ban guidelines and give more leeway for mods to ban people on a case-by-case basis
  • Add a provision for perma-banned users to appeal their ban immediately to a bureaucrat

There's a few other re-wordings and some stuff moved around, but those are the big things I think need need changing. You can find a draft here. Understand that adding the bureaucrat review is not to challenge your or any other mods authority, but simply makes the review neutral as opposed to a popularity contest (which in the case of a community vote it definitely can be). I included an original copy of the guideline so you can see the changes. Please let me know what you think and if this is something you support.

Jonas

On page 2 of the preview, the "vault dweller" in the picture gets shown as having the exact same lines as Jonas, which kinda proves it. Even if not, it's obviously a character before Jonas, so that should be noted. User Broccoli  Broc  msg  Blog  15:26, November 20, 2013 (UTC)

Sorry, I meant the first page of the preview. http://www.nma-fallout.com/article.php?id=38620 If you go down to where it says "The PC walks into the next room" next to a grey box on the left, it explains the Jonas part, and then further down there's the pic of Jonas.

Visual Editor

Hey Richie. I saw your distaste with the new visual editor in the wiki activity so I though I'd let you know the drop down menu beside the edit button allows for classic source mode to be used. Just a heads up. Happy editing! Yours Always; --The Old World Relics (talk/blog/contributions) 00:57, December 10, 2013 (UTC)

Re:WWI

I disagree. We don't have, and I don't believe we've ever had, a WWI page. Also, I didn't know it was mentioned in the FOT intro, but like the brief Hitler mention in the WWII, it doesn't necessarily constitute notability. Furthermore, setting the stage for WWII also doesn't make it significant enough, considering it was only one of many causes and an event that leads to another event that is notable in the Fallout universe does not make that event notable. I wouldn't exactly die if we were to add that little note back in, but looking at the bigger picture, it's important to establish precedent for notability, especially in consideration of future titles... --Skire (talk) 03:33, December 18, 2013 (UTC)

Leading to WWII does not make WWI notable because WWI was not essential for WWII to occur, or at the very least nothing suggests that it was absolutely essential. Moreover, this argument could be applied to all other Fallout historical events with a major cause being another event, such as the election of Lincoln and the Kansas-Nebraska Act being causes of the Civil War (which is notable). However, purely on the grounds of that FOT mention we could add it back into the timeline, providing that a reference to the weapon would be added in. --Skire (talk) 14:49, December 18, 2013 (UTC)

Chat query

Sorry I missed you. I stepped out for a moment. I do believe the same should apply to items mentioned in other games. It's just another parameter to the template, so it shouldn't be too big of a deal. --Skire (talk) 01:23, December 29, 2013 (UTC)

Edit

Why did you remove my edition? Is my statement false? No. It's true. Is my statement too obvious to put it here? No. It's quite unobvious? Ghouls cannot wear some human armor. At least, you reject my changes without even a comment. -Jackal- (talk) 09:44, January 2, 2014 (UTC)

Back to Power Armor for ghouls. Ok. I think, I got it. I should be more specific and have to stress out, that my sentence there is not only to exclude Super Mutants, Dogs and Robots, but to reveal ghost armor problem.-Jackal- (talk) 15:48, January 2, 2014 (UTC)

About the about page

Hi, After recent discussion on the topic of our about page, I've opened up a section on the About page at Fallout_Wiki_talk:About under Revamp. I'd love nominations for other notable users we can feature in this page, as well as any other ideas. Agent c (talk) (via the courier)

Light Machine Gun

I reverted your edit on the light machine gun. It's not a location page for which we have a notable loot policy. It's item page. It's ok to add a few general places where you have a good chance to find it. Jspoel Speech Jspoel 22:12, February 25, 2014 (UTC)

I've come to a compromise. Removed a few locations (duffle bags) and rewrote/left a few. Marauders, super mutants masters and nightkin can be mentioned. Marauders are the only marked men that can have them, and the few masters and nightkin are also notable I think. You'll see it most item pages, that they have more locations mentioned than just the fixed ones. It's looking for a compromise I think, where you look for notability. Also, I'm not that pleased to see deep red links. We need to focus on adding and improving content, not removing it. Jspoel Speech Jspoel 23:45, February 27, 2014 (UTC)

U kicked me! </3

( Why'd you kick me? I was proving a point about Enclave's supposed 'restoring the nation' idea. It's much more complex than just 'poof,it's all good' after a bomb has been dropped.

Chatban

1. No it doesnt dictate a warning or kick. Thats a guideline.
2. I believe Slingers had some problems with his computer that meant he could only do it in that way. When he is online momentarily, I'm sure he'll be willing to discuss it futher.
3. Abuse of the logs has been said to be threatening causing major harm to the wiki. If someone is misusing it then that is an actionable offence. Agent c (talk) 04:19, May 14, 2014 (UTC)

Then feel free to remove service rifle from the battle rifle page. It would be nice if weapons were clear cut, but... --Kastera (talk) 19:14, May 14, 2014 (UTC)

I figured they counted as battle rifles since they were already on the battle rifle page :P --Kastera (talk) 19:22, May 14, 2014 (UTC)

I was not aware of the Notable Loot policy. Thank you. Just wanted to point out that the suitcases has more than average low-level loot that could have been easily missed.
