P.S. I am going to do the [[Vice City]] and [[San Andreas]] police scanner dialogue on the Dialogues section later on. I found three scripts including the [[Kaufman Cabs]] scanner script. | P.S.

Hey GB, I was just thinking if we could consider creating a page about Grand Thef Wiki, eg. how/when we started, what we aim for, our progression over the years, the wikia move ect. We could name this page [[Grand Theft Wiki]] (which already re-directs to the main page) or [[About Grand Theft Wiki]]. I think it would inspire and inform users to know a little more about GTW. What do you think?

Looks like the problem includes all pages covering 100% completion (the only way I managed to access one of them is entering via a redirect, by searching for "[[100]]"). Clicking any of the links redirects me to a "[[406.shtml]]" page, which I assume refers to the [[wp:List of HTTP status codes#4xx Client Error|406 error]]. Hope this is fixed ASAP. - [[User:ZS|ZS]] 08:18, 9 November 2010 (UTC) | Looks like the problem includes all pages covering 100% completion (the only way I managed to access one of them is entering via a redirect, by searching for "[[Completion|100]]").

:I'm afraid it's not that simple. Given the super-short URLs we use, it's not easy to get all symbols working. I have everything else working, just not % at the moment. The next thing I try is hardcoding it into the apache config, instead of htaccess, but that will result in some downtime as I try to get it working.

Hey Gboyers, as you may know, you have promoted me to Inspector of Grand Theft Wiki. Can you please tell me what new tools I have, where to find them and how to use them?--[[User:MrLanceVanceDance|MrLanceVanceDance]] 03:52, 13 August 2011 (BST) | Hey Gboyers, as you may know, you have promoted me to Inspector of Grand Theft Wiki.

Sorry if you misunderstood me. I was just asking about the tools, as I am still new to the job of Inspector. I am not trying to ask about power and authority over fellow users of this wiki.--[[User:MrLanceVanceDance|MrLanceVanceDance]] 05: | Sorry if you misunderstood me.

The 3 replies answer my questions about tools? ALso, I think the job of Inspector is okay is it is for now. I'll infom you if I think changes need to be made.--[[User:MrLanceVanceDance|MrLanceVanceDance]] 05:25, 13 August 2011 (BST) | |||

Hey Gboyers, can I use this image to create a userbox in this wiki (File:GTW.gif). Also, if you allow me, how do I credit you?--[[User:MrLanceVanceDance|MrLanceVanceDance]] 08:41, 14 August 2011 (BST) | |||
==RE: Quick Comment== | |||
Thanks, I will keep that in mind! It is not the idea of me trying being posh 21 year old, sometimes I might just type and forget to look back and check if the sentence I created actually made sense. This however will not happen anymore, and I will start to consider that there are members on this site who do not speak English natively, hence might not understand more complex vocabulary I have been recently using. | |||
Thank you for bringing that up, if you never mentioned it I would still be making the same mistakes. - [[User:Montario|Montario]] 20:21, 14 August 2011 (BST) | |||
== What's going on with {{tl|Navbox}}? == | |||
All templates linked there (like {{tl|Vehicles}}, {{tl|Weapons}}, {{tl|Broker neighborhoods}}) show up with messed up template links (the "v • d • e" links on the upper left corner), yet that template hadn't been changed for months (Did a wiki software change cause this?). This needs to be looked into ASAP. - [[User:ZS|ZS]] 04:53, 15 August 2011 (BST) | |||
