RE:

Yeah he's been renaming the images for consistency reasons. And yeah images should all share the same pattern like Image:Vc the driver.jpg renamed to TheDriver-GTAVC.jpg--Gta-mysteries 02:09, April 4, 2010 (UTC)

Multiplayer

Man, I like your idea, it's pretty slick man, I like the sounds of 2 people going around together, forming a bond, or even if GTA IVs choices were anything to go by, going down opposite roads, betraying each other, and fighting throughout, obviously with certain points where they'd HAVE to work together, I like your idea man, but it'd have to be it's own game, to follow WITH another GTA Zachariah Zuan 23:38, August 26, 2010 (UTC)

Reply:Mission Images

I was the person who uploaded the images and, as they are direct copies from the Polish GTA Wikia, I did not edit their version. I also believe that the large screen images, including those with the letter box, are better than smaller images if only to maintain the same image size. The subtitles are also useful to establish the part of the mission the image is from, which is not always clear. Also when uploading images please stick to the established format (File:MissionNameHere-GTAInitials). Thank you. A-Dust 17:33, 4 June 2011 (BST)

As I stated above it is better to maintain the same type of image throughout our mission pages and in particular on the same article. The subtitles, regardless of the language, are also useful for establishing what the image is depicting. A-Dust 19:14, 30 June 2011 (BST)

That sounds great! We still need to get our own images but the ones from the Polish GTA Wikia are good to have for the moment. We'd obviously much prefer to not have the letter box and have subtitles on the screen. Will you be taking a few images from missions or many, more like for use in a walkthrough? A-Dust 21:26, 30 June 2011 (BST)

I don't think letterboxes look good, but subtitles can be useful to highlight a part of a mission, especially if it's one that doesn't look very exciting. Gboyers 21:11, 3 July 2011 (BST)

We need to have images either with or without subtitles, not a mixture. And images should really have subtitles, regardless of whether they appear interesting or not. The letterboxes are not important though. A-Dust 21:50, 3 July 2011 (BST)

I meant to post here when I first made the edit, but then I got a phonecall and I had to run. Missions in GTA San Andreas isn't locked. I do notice that the section [Edit] links are missing, but you can use the edit button at the top of the page. Is that your problem, or is there some other problem?

Usually if there are no section edit links, I would expect to find __NOEDITSECTION__ somewhere in the source code, which specifically removes them. However, as this is not the case, I have no idea why they are missing. And a long page like that is where they are useful, too...

Mission ordering

The reason I place the first image first is to avoid spoilers for those who are unaware of the storyline of the game, especially considering that the GTA III Era games were recently released again for Mac OS X. The images do get to look a bit repetitive, which doesn't always look brilliant, but it avoids spoilers. I'd also like to thank you for the images again. A-Dust 11:59, 8 July 2011 (BST)

Hey Silver Infernus - are you still active here? Just wanted to check everything's okay!--MrLanceVanceDance (talk) 12:40, 28 December 2011 (UTC)

Trusted Users & Patrolling

Hi Silver Infernus. We've made a few changes to Grand Theft Wiki, our staff structure and the way we monitor edits. You may have noticed A-Dust marked you as a 'Trusted User' the other day (which I support)! As you're a Trusted User, we've given you the right to patrol other users' edits. This means you can check out the edits that haven't been checked yet, and either endorse them, fix them or revert them. As you're trusted, your edits are automatically marked as patrolled too! It would be a great help if you could patrol a few edits from Special:Patrol each time you visit GTW, and it would look good if you were nominated for promotion too! See Grand Theft Wiki:Patrolling for help and more info (I used your edits as an example), and give it a go! Let me know if you have any questions - gboyers ^talk 00:40, 8 January 2012 (UTC)
