== Image Attributions == | == Image Attributions == | ||
As we have established, screenshots of GTA games are copyright of [[Rockstar]], not the screenshotter or uploader, so we can use them unless they have been significantly artistically modified. With other images, we usually use them unless there is a complaint, or unless we know we cannot. Image attribution is almost impossible to obtain retrospectively. Most people just take the images off random other websites or from google. The only way to ensure full atribution is to delete any image that is uploaded without it. I don't suggest we go down that route. We have successfully removed images after complaints before, and that process works well. Sure it would help to have attributions, but {{template|screenshot}} is enough for most.

Hi. When you archive your talk page, you should not copy and paste the text onto a subpage. You should move the page, so that it keeps the history with the text.

It's easier to verify everything that way, than checking through the history pre-deletion.

Mine are [[Grand Theft Auto IV|GTA IV]] at the moment, so we just have to put them in difficulty levels like yours, and then add them to yours under a new heading, is that how you would like to do it, not overlap games? Or do you plan on making longer quizzes anyway? I am leaving that up to you because the quizzes are your idea, and I don't want to take over. Thank You.

== Website Page Name == | |||
Hi, I haven't spoken to you for a while, that means I haven't had any "problems". Until now. LOL. I recently merged the pages [[Love-meet.net]] and [[Love-Meet.net]] (they weren't in the [[:category:merge|merge category]] but it was obvious they were the same thing). However, there was no reason for keeping any of the headings so I just chose randomly. None were correct because the [[:category:Websites|Website Category]] says: | |||
:''Make sure websites are in lower case, and do not include the www.'' | |||
What this means is that the page [[Love-meet.net]] {the one I kept) needs to be moved to [[love-meet.net]] and to avoid a double redirect, the page [[Love-Meet.net]] (which I redirected to the one I kept) need to be redirected to the operating page as well) (last time I told you to move a page, I found the double redirect the next day). | |||
BTW, I think it would be good for you to know that the reason that I haven't had any problems lately is because I'm becoming more confident with my own judgment on the wiki, and if I'm in doubt I just say my idea on the talk page. If I'm sure but was wrong, it can easily be fixed and I learn from my mistakes.

However, back when I was still in the process of completing the main story, and I told him plot details, he was always interested, on top of that, he tells me things about videos about [[Grand Theft Auto IV|GTA IV]] that he's watched on [http://www.youtube.com YouTube]. When you try and say the same things about his Nintendo Wii, or the games he plays, he won't take it. Do you know what you call a person like that?

== Multiple Accounts == | |||
Hi Ed. People are NOT welcome to have more than one account. Check out the [[Grand Theft Wiki:Rules]] (number 5) which says: ''"Creating multiple user accounts for one person is forbidden, particularly if it is to circumvent a block from the site, to mislead others or to create the illusion of greater support for an issue. The only exceptions to this are bots..."''. Basically if they have a good reason they can have one, but they should always ask staff first. If they have more than one, they should pick one to keep and forget the others - this includes ones created by accident. Please could you correct your statements on [[User talk:PROFESSERGARFIELD]] to match this? Thanks - [[User:Gboyers|Gboyers]] <sup>[[User_talk:Gboyers|talk]]</sup> 10:39, 9 September 2008 (UTC) | |||

Both user pages were created by the first user. '''[[user:Biggest gta fan ever|Biggest GTA Fan Ever]]<sup>''[[user talk:Biggest gta fan ever|Talk]]''</sup>''' 08:03, 10 September 2008 (UTC) | |||

==Help== | |||
Hello, it's been a while but how can I find the page where it says the recently deleted files/images are. [[User:Mcanmoocanu|Mcanmoocanu]] | |||
== Discovery == | |||
Hi, I don't know how long until I will get a reply because you've been inactive for a while, but I just logged out to test something (admin can't test if a page can be edited because we can edit anything) (I didn't actually edit - I just looked to see if it was '''Edit this page''' or '''View Source'''). Anyway, while I was logged off the main page changed from '''Welcome Biggest gta fan ever''' to just a list of random users, and I saw your avatar. Except it wasn't [[user:Eganio|Eganio's]], it belonged to [[user:GeneGnome|GeneGnome]]. His name is Ed Ganio but he has no contributions. It gave me a laugh, your original user account.

== Perfect Mission == | |||
Hi, A while ago I started on an idea that Gboyers came up with, to write a perfect mission article and use it as a guide for writing mission articles all over the wiki. Both GB and A-Dust gave me their input and now that I've remembered about it, and it's getting closer to perfect, I would like to get some input from you as well (I also just asked GK). Here is a [[User:Biggest gta fan ever/Perfect Mission|link]]. Thanks!

:Hey Ed - just wanted to pop my head in and say hi, wondering if you fancied popping back so we can have a chat sometime. I'm on [[IRC]] too with GK - [[User:Gboyers|Gboyers]] <sup>[[User_talk:Gboyers|talk]]</sup> 15:32, 4 May 2009 (UTC) | |||
