==BindableEvent==
Does anyone have any idea how this object works? Here is what I have so far:
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
local bindableEvent = script.Parent
local a, b, finish = bindableEvent.Parent.Example.A, bindableEvent.Parent.Example.B, bindableEvent.Parent.Example.Finished
bindableEvent:Fire(a.Value==b.Value, {a.Value, b.Value})
bindableEvent.Event:connect(function(c, d)
print(a.Value, b.Value)
finish.Value = true
end)
</syntaxhighlight>
'''a''' and '''b''' are NumberValues, which I am incrementing using another script. '''finish''' is a BoolValue. This part is irrelevant.
I didn't get it to work. I am assuming that you have to specify the arguments for the '''Event''' Event and the values given to the function.
Can anyone help?

Welcome!

Welcome to the wiki! Here is a page that could help you to understand quickly how the object documentation works on the wiki: User:Mr_Doom_Bringer/Examples. --JulienDethurens 02:14, 22 January 2012 (UTC)

Removing Your Old Image

While no one but those with sysops privileges can remove pages, you can use the delete template to add it into the Pending Removal category. MrNicNac - Wiki Editor

 {{delete}} 
Ok, thanks a lot for the help.

center tag

I'd suggest not using the center tag, as it has been deprecated. Do what you want, however. I just dislike seeing deprecated tags, so I usually tell the person to try to avoid them.

Oh ok, what can I use then?
20:43, 22 January 2012 (UTC)
Using the center tag won't cause the end of the world, but it's better to avoid it. Use the CSS 'text-align' element if possible. Here's an example:
This text is centered.
I used a div and used its style attribute, which I set to "text-align: center".
Oh, ok. Thanks

Questions: What am I allowed to do?

I would like to specialize in stubs. I have some questions to working on pages in general: (1) Can I change any page that is classified as a stub and is not protected if I believe I can contribute to it? (2) May I create a page for a subject that I deem not represented in the Wiki (I think there should be a page for the pcall function because it is very useful)? (3) Can I nominate a page I have created for deletion if I deem it appropriate?

20:42, 22 January 2012 (UTC)
Note: please use MediaWiki's lists instead of these (1) and (2), etc.
Here is an example (just incase you didn't know yet):
  1. Item
  2. Another item
And, yes. You can edit stubs, create pages, and nominate pages for deletion, even if you didn't make them. The creator of a page doesn't matter, unless it is his userpage or a subpage of his userpage. This is a wiki, so the creator of a page doesn't really matter.
Yeah, I know, I didn't think of using the lists :D. Thanks though.
20:48, 22 January 2012 (UTC)
Oh, and, for the pcall function, there is already a page. You can find it in the function dump, here: pcall.
That is what I meant. I was actually thinking of it having its own page. Eh, doesn't matter. I am going to get started on the stubs.
20:59, 22 January 2012 (UTC)
And don't be in denial of help. Slightest curiosity of something? Go question someone who you think knows. But don't be overly-weary. You have a lot of leniency as long as you keep within the guidelines. MrNicNac - Wiki Editor
Ok, and when I am trying to clear up stubs, I will always try to express my doubts in the comments.

Stub Cleared; SkinColor (Property)

It's a fine and basic addition - and I plastered a review on it to make it the public-stable version. Good idea at fixing the stubs. MrNicNac - Wiki Editor

Thanks! I am trying to clear up as many stubs as possible and make each one understandable to everyone. How am I supposed to find out, what a protected item does? I am going through the list and doing all of the ones I can do. Oh, yeah, I also did the Heartbeat (Event) page. (Builder1010101|talk|contribs) 07:39 01/25/2012

Service Tutorial?

Could I create a tutorial for Services? We have every Service documented (not completely, there are still some gaps) but we could have a nice introduction to them. I mean, GUIs have a tutorial, so does Data Persistence. The Wiki even contains a tutorial for How to make precipitation! The idea for the tutorial is one central page, with descriptions and examples of each Service. The page would contain links to every Service. I believe the current pages on Services all explain what the Service does, but they do not really go into detail why a Service would be useful. Please consider my request. (Builder1010101|talk|contribs) 17:09 01/26/2012

Services are similar to instances, so they don't need tutorials. Data persistence and GUIs are generally more complex and need clarifications to use them (i.e must be placed in ScreenGui), while services can just be documented on their respective page.. also, they vary by so much, and not all services can have a tutorial..

Ok. I was just suggesting it because I don't believe the Services are used all that much. Thanks for clearing that up. (Builder1010101|talk|contribs) 21:23 01/26/2012

Pages needing Reviews

You don't need to add a tab for the pages you edited that need reviews, there is already a list of all the pages on the wiki that need reviews here.

Ok, great. I hadn't discovered that page yet. I will remove that section. (Builder1010101|talk|contribs) 10:21 01/27/2012

BindableEvent

Does anyone have any idea how this object works? Here is what I have so far:

local bindableEvent = script.Parent
local a, b, finish = bindableEvent.Parent.Example.A, bindableEvent.Parent.Example.B, bindableEvent.Parent.Example.Finished
bindableEvent:Fire(a.Value==b.Value, {a.Value, b.Value})

bindableEvent.Event:connect(function(c, d)
	print(a.Value, b.Value)
	finish.Value = true
end)

a and b are NumberValues, which I am incrementing using another script. finish is a BoolValue. This part is irrelevant. I didn't get it to work. I am assuming that you have to specify the arguments for the Event Event and the values given to the function. Can anyone help?

Your Contributions

You know there is an easier way to show them all without having to list them. You can link them to this page here. MrNicNac - Senior Wiki Editor

I know, but I believe that seeing that does not really give much of a impression of what I have done. I am only listing the more important edits there. (Builder1010101|talk|contribs) 20:22 04/7/2012
