Uh...why did you supress the redirect? You don't usually do that...BlindColours ...PUNCH!!! 20:04, 9 October 2011 (EDT)

I dunno. No reason probably. Toomai Glittershine ??? The Wacko 20:06, 9 October 2011 (EDT)

S'up Homeslice continued

Does the "new" SmashWiki have per-user sidebar editing support, like the old wiki had? Also, can you give me admin powers (as I was an admin on the old wiki, and all the old active admins have admin powers on this wiki) or do I have to submit an RfA again? PenguinofDeath 11:45, 10 October 2011 (EDT)

I don't know if individual sidebars are supported. As for your adminship...that's a reaaaaally fickle subject in my opinion. While I think you should get your powers back, there's something in the back of my mind saying "He's been out of the community for a year, he should wait a short time to get back into it first". Any other users care to give their opinions? Toomai Glittershine ??? The Eggster 12:11, 10 October 2011 (EDT)
There's a MediaWiki Extension for it, and it's probably worth getting. And yeah, I wouldn't leap right into it, I'm getting to know the community and the current running of the wiki first. PenguinofDeath 12:20, 10 October 2011 (EDT)
We only have 3 admins and Miles isn't totally active, so having you as an admin would be useful as I see it. BlindColours ...PUNCH!!! 19:15, 10 October 2011 (EDT)
We do need another admin, though PoD hasn't been around for over a year. As such, he'll have to get acquainted with how the community has changed, and show he is going to stick around (unlike Pikamander2, who immediately left after getting his admin powers back), before readmining him. Omega Tyrant TyranitarMS.png 19:46, 10 October 2011 (EDT)
Pikminader2 came back for the browser poll, and said on my YouTube channel that he may be back when SSB4 get it's own version of the DOJO. BlindColours ...PUNCH!!! 20:09, 10 October 2011 (EDT)
Pikamander2 is not active by any standard, though. The fact that he voted on a browser poll and may be back later is irrelevant. PoD should show he'll actually use admin rights and not just leave again like Pikamander2 did. DokteurPain99 20:12, 10 October 2011 (EDT)
I believe PoD should get admin powers, as he used his powers very wisely back when he did have them. Mr. AnonMatchupUnknown.pngtalk 20:33, 10 October 2011 (EDT)
What are you talking about, BC? I check SmashWiki quite frequently. Miles (talk) 20:59, 10 October 2011 (EDT)
I know that, I just don't see you edit as much as OT and Toomai. But you're still very active. BlindColours ...PUNCH!!! 23:21, 10 October 2011 (EDT)
The reasons being presented in this section are pretty terrible.
Administrators are appointed for life; no amount of inactivity can result in an administrator losing his position, because (for the majority of cases, including this one) only exceptional users were promoted in the first place. Nobody cares if I, with my powers intact, leave the wiki and then return to start using them again, because everyone knows I know what I'm doing. Why should the standards be different for someone who wasn't around at the time of the move to be grandfathered? I agree that there is no outstanding reason to promote someone who will just leave immediately, but even in that situation, what has been lost? The 5 seconds it took the bureaucrat to restore their rights? Lol. – Emmett 21:54, 14 October 2011 (EDT)
Yeah after the bit of thinking between the start of this section and here I tend to agree with this. Will fix. Toomai Glittershine ??? The Victorious 22:12, 14 October 2011 (EDT)

Kirby's unused Hammer animations

I was rather sceptical about the animations, which is why I removed it. However, as you, an administrator, put it back in, I am willing to believe it.

As a request, however, could you upload images or a video of these animations? I think it'd help the Hammer page, and it could be added to Beta elements.

That's all. ReiDemon 19:33, 11 October 2011 (EDT)

I'll look up how to make .gifs and see what I can do. Toomai Glittershine ??? The Superlative 19:39, 11 October 2011 (EDT)

Pain sounds in Brawl

Hey Toomai, do you know how to activate the unused pain sounds in a character's pac file? If so, can you come on IRC, and help me activate them with PSA? I'm trying to create pac files that have these sounds used for each character. Omega Tyrant TyranitarMS.png 10:25, 14 October 2011 (EDT)

No I don't know. Toomai Glittershine ??? The Honcho 17:23, 14 October 2011 (EDT)

Image

Okay so I uploaded it search: image list on the wiki you'll see it right away at the top of all the images I'll delete it off the wiki when your done using it --Slitherx (talk) 20:23, 18 October 2011 (EDT)

Awesomeness

How are you so awesome!!!!????--Thejfh1999 (talk) 16:09, 21 October 2011 (EDT)

It takes effort, dude. While some of it's natural you can't be this awesome without a healthy dose of hard work. Toomai Glittershine ??? The Awesome 17:25, 21 October 2011 (EDT)

Users who would like to become administrators/bureaucrat

Do users who show desire to become an administrators/bureaucrat here will not become one? Just asking. ..... Trading card game FalcoHeadSSBB.png 17:36, 21 October 2011 (EDT)

You have to post your Request for Adminship/Request for Bureaucratship yourself, so no. However, several things make people less inclined to support you:
  • If you make it clear that you simply want to have the title of admin/bureaucrat, rather than wanting to do more for the wiki and being an admin/bureaucrat would help you do that.
  • If you have a failed RfA/RfB.
  • If you nag users to support you, or constantly ask if they think you should post a request.
Basically, don't be annoying, and only do it if you're sure you want it for the right reasons and that you're ready to do the job. PenguinofDeath 17:52, 21 October 2011 (EDT)

Youtube channel page

Could a link to it be put in the sidebar? The channel page should be easily accessible, which could help in getting more submissions for the channel. Omega Tyrant TyranitarMS.png 18:52, 21 October 2011 (EDT)

Yeah okay. Toomai Glittershine ??? The Producer 19:53, 21 October 2011 (EDT)

Question for you

Hey bro, I was wondering you know how in recent changes once you have made a contribution there will usually be points in green or red, well I have 2 questions on this: 1. Do they add up somewhere, and are you able to see this total somewhere? 2. What do they symbolize, just length of edit or something more? --SlitherxSig.png (TC ) -- Kill em' All" -- Qu&Wow by Slitherx 21:05, 21 October 2011

Yep, they's basically "length of edit". If you go to a page's history you can see how big the versions of the page are; the +/- numbers show how much an edit changes that size. Toomai Glittershine ??? The Undirigible 21:07, 21 October 2011 (EDT)
Awesome well I bet if there was a total you would probably be in 1st place with 10,000,000 points by now huh? SlitherxSig.png (TC ) -- Kill em' All" -- Qu&Wow by Slitherx 21:10, 21 October 2011
They're not points, it's the amount of change in characters, and a good edit doesn't have to have an increase in the amount of characters. Omega Tyrant TyranitarMS.png 21:20, 21 October 2011 (EDT)
Lol I already knew this OT i was making a joke to Toomai. --SlitherxSig.png (TC ) -- Kill em' All" -- Qu&Wow by Slitherx 21:21, 21 October 2011

Article Icons

Bump. PenguinofDeath 10:50, 28 October 2011 (EDT)

Subpages

Shouldn't you link your subpages on your userpage? I didn't know some of them even existed until you edited them. BlindColours Thank you for reading my sig. 20:29, 28 October 2011 (EDT)

Hm. I'll think about it; some of the stuff in there is more of a storage bin than a display case, while other stuff are hidden bonuses and things like that. Toomai Glittershine ??? The Researcher 20:37, 28 October 2011 (EDT)

Announcer thing

If its not the announcer that remotes the continue option then what is it that automatically selects no if the player doesn't have enough required coins?--75.142.67.97 19:04, 16 November 2011 (EST)
