Careful

Randomly changing punctuations in articles can be viewed as achievement boosting and may be dealt with by a moderator. 21:07, July 5, 2011 (UTC)

10 Points of Luck

The 201,000th must be separate from the 181,000th which I have. However, check out Template: User lucky. Mictlantecuhtli 17:04, July 31, 2011 (UTC)

Blanking out words.

"Hell" or other words like it do not need to be blanked out. If they character said a cuss or word or such, then that is what is put. 02:04, October 28, 2011 (UTC)

Lol, that sucks. Just be wary of using it as there are alot of cuss words on this wiki. Oh and don't just type your name at the end of a post. Sign it using four tildes. (~)

Navbox

Look to the leftside of the navbox, there you'll see v-d-e. Click on e, then you can edit the navbox. Jspoel 22:16, November 1, 2011 (UTC)

Capitalization

We have a current policy that leaves things such as super mutant and trog lower case as they are not proper nouns. Named items should be capitalized but not items such as above. Thanks.--Kingclyde 22:31, November 1, 2011 (UTC)

Martin Retslaf

Registered users can edit it now. Don't add a speculative suicide comment; that was the reason it was being locked. Jspoel 22:18, November 3, 2011 (UTC)

Blog comments

Less of the "cool story bro", memes constitute spam and if I see it again I might take this further. -- 00:00, November 16, 2011 (UTC)

Speculatores

On the Caesar's Legion military hierarchy article, Speculatores are not gladiators, they are simply Explorers, not to mention this is all speculation anyway, no pun intended. But if you want to have an accurate real life historical background, at least put up a true one. Merry Christmas! -Love, ΣΔ 15:27, December 24, 2011 (UTC)

Yeah, no problem. I get confuzzled all the time. -Love, ΣΔ 21:23, December 24, 2011 (UTC)

I appreciate you lookin' out for punctuation, but on many notable loot notes, if there is no complete sentence, there need not be a period. An example is your recently edited Nipton Road reststop. -Love, ΣΔ 03:05, December 29, 2011 (UTC)

Nukapedia

If you don't like the name, that's your own problem, to be frank. The vote for the name change was up for nearly a month, was displayed in the community messages and was mentioned at every news digest that Agent c put up. You had plenty of time to vote. If you don't participate in an election, you don't really have a right to whine about the result. Hugs ^{"Say 'ello to my little friend!"}

Name

The community voted for it here.--Kingclyde 21:19, January 6, 2012 (UTC)

Inflammatory blogcomments

Please lay it off with the ad hominems and politically inflammatory blog comments. All you're doing is derailing the discussion, even if you didn't start it. Thanks, hugs ^{"Say 'ello to my little friend!"}

Harry

I reverted you Harry edit. If the character ain't living anymore, we don't use appear, but say he/she is only mentioned. Jspoel 15:41, February 3, 2012 (UTC)

Abel

Your last 2 edits didn't improve the page. Those could be left like they were, present tense. Jspoel 03:02, February 5, 2012 (UTC)

Hahaha

I was about to say ;) κηδεμόνας ^[~μιλώ~] 21:18, February 15, 2012 (UTC)

When you reverted that anon's edit that was actually a good edit, and then had to revert your own. Just made me laugh; not a slight on you at all :) κηδεμόνας ^[~μιλώ~] 21:38, February 15, 2012 (UTC)

The Hub

I'm not quite sure what you were trying to do with that edit, but I'm going to ask you not to do it again. -ΣΔ^{Let's talk!} 22:18, February 16, 2012 (UTC)

That's part of it yes, but I'm talking about the edit on the top, perhaps accidental? Take a look:[[1]]. -ΣΔ^{Let's talk!} 22:43, February 16, 2012 (UTC)

Severus

Hi, I've undone your edit on this article. "Decanus" isn't a proper noun, so it shouldn't be capitalized. The other additions were also unnecessary, as our guidelines suggest we aim for conciseness. On another note, it seems all your edits are being tagged as minor even when they are not; maybe it's marked as default in the preferences as that's a common issue. Toodles~ Limmiegirl ^{Talk! ♪} 06:06, February 19, 2012 (UTC)

I'd like to note that ranks are capitalised if accompanied with the name of the holder of said rank.

Incorrect - As he said he would, the Overseer closed the vault door.
Correct - As he said he would, Overseer Almodovar closed the vault door.

Infobox

Your infobox icon has already been added, though you might have to purge the cached files in your browser to see it. Toodles! Limmiegirl ^{Talk! ♪} 15:59, April 27, 2012 (UTC)

ACB

Isn't he awesome?! :D -- Bacon-Man ^{Talk to me goose!} 23:37, April 27, 2012 (UTC)

File

If you're going to add copyright tags, you might as well do the whole thing. Put a section down as ==Licensing== then the copyright tag underneath it. --Skire (talk) 14:49, July 6, 2012 (UTC)

You can also categorize when you add a license, like with the Gallo image: [[Category:Fallout 3 character images]]

You're still forgetting the categories. This way the files need to be edited twice, while it can be done in one. Jspoel

Status request

I've set it back to active again. But after this request I expect you to live up to it. Jspoel 14:40, July 16, 2012 (UTC)

FALS Edit

I found it unnessacary to revert my addition to the bugs section, ecspecially since I added the verification template. Why'd you revert it?

22:48, July 23, 2012 (UTC)

Haha sorry, didn't mean to sound upset there, I just saw a patroller edit an article right after I did so I made an assumption, sorry about that.

23:02, July 23, 2012 (UTC)

Re:Andale

No problem, I had assumed it was just a simple mistake =) And the information is not relevant anyway. See you around! --Skire (talk) 01:53, July 24, 2012 (UTC)

Arc welder

The arc welder is a Lonesome Road weapon, not a New Vegas one. Check if it's an add-on weapon. Jspoel 17:13, July 27, 2012 (UTC)

Sorry. It seems that the bolt glitch has made it look like a scope, I'll see if I can get you a screenshot. I was on vacation and going to edit it. Thanks for doing it for me! BlueflamesX (talk) 16:16, July 30, 2012 (UTC)

Girdershade bug

Is a dog attacking brahmin really a bug? Don't animals attack them all the time? Paladin117^{>>iff bored;} 04:07, August 3, 2012 (UTC)

Image categorizing

I categorized those images just as a blog post image because they're in a blog. If you add a FNV weapon image category, that would mean they're in the game as a weapon and they're not. It's an own invention I think from Frankie. I'd like to keep images appearing in the game seperate from non-game images. Jspoel 16:08, September 21, 2012 (UTC)

If you want, you can add that one yes. Jspoel

Fallout: Apprentice

Hey, Charcoal! I was wondering if you would like to upload an electronic signature? I am currently creating the Grand Prize for Chad's Fallout: Apprentice, and I am wanting to create a plaque that has all of the consenting leadership's signatures and thanks on it! ^{Some Assembly Required!} 14:30, October 15, 2012 (UTC)

It just means having your signature available over the wonderful inter-webs. :) If you have a tablet, that should be easy enough to do. If not, you can always use a program like Photoshop or Paint to write it out. (Or, I could just create a default signature for you, if you'd like. Just tell me which font you'd like for me to use.)

^{Some Assembly Required!} 19:42, October 15, 2012 (UTC)

Of course!

Permaban reviews

I'd like to get your input on Forum:Vote:_Permaban_Reviews, if you could. I've extended the vote for a day, as I feel it's a very important decision that will effect how we deal with bans. Please add your views if you could. The Gunny 17:23, October 20, 2012 (UTC)

Categorizing

Hey Charcoal thanks for categorizing, but can you first add Licensing and copyright tag, and below that the category. Not the other way around like you're doing now. Bit nitpicky, but I like it that way. Jspoel 00:23, December 19, 2012 (UTC)
