Quick Question

I've noticed there are built-in functions on the wiki that allow you to insert a tag into { and } to bring up a pre-made item, like Mindraker's signature.

My question is: How do you make something like that? Is it Wiki admins only? I will supply more information if you're confused.

Haha

i just posted that for fun :)


Global warming

  • chuckle* Hey, some kids getting off school today with the snow, maybe there will be some activity on the servers. MINDRAKER 21:57, 11 December 2008 (UTC)

Graphics Glitch

Hey Outofspace! No - my laptop does that a lot - mainly recently - when I'm in Roblox Studio - with two places open - and I switch between them. Or it could just be the Wiki Car place! I think the bottom section of the graphics glitch is the jammies we were wearing - smeared out! Oh - I should post that picture up!

Present hats

That's cool, I had reduced it down to registered users only, and I was still getting some nonsense. MINDRAKER 19:48, 15 December 2008 (UTC)

OK, well, do what you want with that page, people obviously aren't getting the idea to leave it alone. MINDRAKER 06:39, 17 December 2008 (UTC)


The Wiki is looking great!

Hi Outofspace, I just wanted to say congratulations on getting the wiki in such good shape! I've noticed that it has become really easy to use, I can find what I'm looking for quickly, and the information actually helps! So, thanks for all your work! Already congratulated Mindraker too!

Fractals

D Wow, once you get hooked on them, you don't quit. It's a shame that Roblox doesn't have the full capabilities of LUA. I've seen some awesome Lua scripts out there for Fractals, but the limited capabilities for Roblox prevent us from using them. MINDRAKER 09:23, 18 December 2008 (UTC)

Happy holidays

Aww... you're leaving us while the wiki was just getting fun... *chuckle*... MINDRAKER 02:12, 21 December 2008 (UTC)

Love the "even crazier" script creation of yours... I was just running it while I was messing around in Roblox studio. MINDRAKER 01:10, 22 December 2008 (UTC)

Building tutorials

What are you looking for with new "building tutorials"? I'm just not sure what you want. MINDRAKER 05:19, 23 December 2008 (UTC)

Oy!

From now on any bans that you plan on making need to be temporary and then listed on my talk page. Temporary means 1 week or less, preferably less. List any usernames that need blocking on my talk and if I don't respond in a couple of days send me a PM on Roblox.\

Also, any pages that have more than 5 edits by different people (meaning 2 or more) need to be listed as deleted on my talk page.

I'm not doing this as a punishment, this is just to make sure that the users don't start sending us angry e-mails or rioting. Just need to make sure that they are indeed needing to be permabanned before actually banning them.

As such, try to go a little easier on the bans, for one or two bad edits send them a note on their talk page rather than banning them immediately.

As I stated, this isn't contradicting my decision to make you a Sysop, this is simply a change that occurs during the normal operation of the business. The situation with the Wiki is changing a bit, we are getting a little more lax on what can pass through here as an effective edit. As such, this is just a little nudge in that direction. The only change that will be occoring is I will be reviewing any bans that are requested to either allow or deny them.
The only change is for bans greater than one week. That's the only limit I'm putting on you and Mindraker. All I want is to make sure that a user does indeed require a ban longer than that before actually being banned. This is to prevent any situations like the one with gordonrox from happening again.
All I'm asking is that you be a little more careful with the banstick and notify me when you think someone needs longer than a week. I still trust your judgement as to what should and shouldn't be on the wiki, all I'm asking is to have a second system for checking who should not be allowed access to edits.
Like I said, this isn't a punishment, this is just to prevent anything from happening in the future that would cause the users to riot. It really doesn't take that much and you guys can still effectively function. All I need is for you to toss names on my talk page for me to take care of longer than a week. Even the most obvious ones. Ban them a week and toss the name onto my page. Temporary bans allow for the account to be locked out, as well as the IP; it's just a lot easier to reverse than a permanent ban.
I don't want to sound like I'm being egotistic or that I'm being mean, it's just another step in the process that's being added for the sake of user happiness. That's the whole point of you guys working here, both you and Mindraker are doing a fine job, it's just that we need to double check on the more permanent actions.

Proposed lock

Gordonrox24 has suggested/proposed a lock on This page. It makes sense to me. MINDRAKER 07:44, 26 December 2008 (UTC)

Not supported?

Weird stuff like memory leaks and other disruptive things start happening.

Think about it, the brick is rendering in the location of it's parent, which doesn't have a 3D grid. There is a reason you can't actually just drag stuff in there anymore. It's not meant to be a child of the object because it doesn't work there properly.

It's just a note. You can still do it and have stability, but it's 'not recommended.' ---Mr Doom Bringer 14:30, 27 December 2008 (UTC)

Images

Thanks for protecting them! I've finished the first menu, and there's 5 menus left. That makes about 50 images left to make and upload, with a few extras. --Anaminus 14:44, 27 December 2008 (UTC)

Special:ShortPages

Hello, Would you like me to go through the list you gave me and add info, and mark stubs? Thanks --User:gordonrox24

Hi, Ok great. I will spend some time going through that list and marking the appropriate pages as stubs. Thanks --User:gordonrox24
