User talk:PikFan23

Welcome, PikminFanatic23!
Welcome to our wiki, PikminFanatic23, and thank you for your contributions! There's a lot to do around here, so I hope you'll stay with us and make many more improvements. If you decide to stay here and edit you should add your userpage to this category, and it is also helpful that you agree to the rules set up by the other users here. The following links have been provided by the administration in order to help familiarize yourself with rules, regulations and other such facilities.

Glad to know that you have a game idea under way and that you are eager to figure out the wiki. Hopefully these links will help.

Re:Check-in
Here's the responses to your questions:

1. For the userbox towers, put the following on your user page:

Then, right below that, put the userboxes you want. Userboxes are listed here. If you want to put a userbox from the page Template:PC, you would put.

After that, you put.

Userbox example:

This would display:

2. The best way to become friends of other users is to contribute to talk page (pages whose names begin with "Talk:", "User talk:", "Template talk:", etc.) and forum discussions (pages that begin with "Topic:". The most recent edits, including discussions can be found at Special:RecentChanges. This page is a great way to stay up to date with what's happening on the wiki.

3. No, you don't always have to talk in a speech bubble, it's just a fad that's been going around lately. For help with making one of those, go to Template:Word Bubble. I hope that helps.

4. The talk pages are pages to discuss the articles they are associated with. For example, Talk:Pikmin: Ultimate Doom is a page to discuss the article Pikmin: Ultimate Doom and User talk:Volatile Dweevil is a page to leave messages for me and have discussions with me. When a talk page (usually a user talk page) gets too long, old discussions are put in a talk page archive, to make access to newer discussions easier. Talk page archives should not be edited.

5. There actually is no real wiki government, and no advanced rules, sadly, and The Council, The White Room, Official Court, and IWRT Portal do absolutely nothing, and issue that I recently brought up on the forums.

Yeah, it's really no problem at all. I'm an admin here and I'm supposed to help out with these kinds of things.


 * Wow, that helps a lot. At least I don't have to worry about those "government" things. And for the friends thing, are you saying I should just talk to them nicely or something? Now, not to be rude or anything, what do you mean by "old discussions are put in a talk page archive, to make access to newer discussions easier."? Like, are multiple talk pages one archive? Or is an archive a talk page that's long and old? Please verify. And also, I finished my userboxes before I read your explanation. I'm so sorry!


 * Plus (even though I'm going off topic), I would like to help out with Pikmin: Ultimate Doom.


 * See you.

 * Yeah, the way I got to know the users when I joined was to participate in the discussions on the talk pages, so that's what I meant.


 * It's kind of hard to explain the archives thing, let me try again. Basically, when someone's talk page gets way long, they move some of the old discussions to the archive to shorten up their talk page.


 * Peanut64 is in charge of Pikmin: Ultimate Doom. Ask him if you want to help out.


 * Thanks, Volatile!! Your explanation of the archives was very, very clear. Also, Peanut wrote on my page saying that I wasn't able to help with PUD 'cause only the creators were able to edit it.


 * Have a nice day.

Re:Two quickies
Hey, Pikfan. I'll try to answer these questions the best I can.

1. I have a game banner example here. I have what each part does on the banner labeled, and the "Show preview" button below the edit box should help you. Once you are finished, use the "move" button at the top of the page and move it to "Template:". Also, the things at the end of the paragraphs are signatures, or "sigs". If you put a drawing of what you want your sig to look like on your talk page, I will make one for you.

2. To put your name in Category:Users, just put  anywhere on your user page.

Well hello! I am glad you have come here to help. Unfortunately Pikmin: Ultimate Doom is only for edit by the creators, but you are more than welcome to make your own game!

Hi there, and welcome to the wiki. I'm glad you have taken to editing so quickly, but I just want to point something out. We are currently going to remove all non-important canon articles. While the Nintendo Wii and New Play Control! Edits were ok, we are going to remove all the canon treasures, as well as 2-Player areas, regular areas, and upgrades. This is just an FYI, so don't think you did anything wrong.


 * To Volatile Dweevil:


 * OK; I have now set up a game banner for my game. I'll soon have a pic of my sig (hand-drawn) so you know what it looks like.


 * To Peanut64:


 * That's fine, but just so you know, am am making a game and you could help out if you wanted.


 * To Sir Pikmin:


 * Are the canon pages not needed due to the fact that there is Pikipedia up?


 * You all have a good day.

I'm sorry but there can not be a sequel to Pikmin: Ultimate Doom. The way it goes, It would be impossible to have a game after it.

Well, I guess I can understand... You're the head of Ultimate Doom, so, I'm not going to stop you...

I am back
Hi, everyone, I am back...

Re:My Signature
I'll start working on it, and I'll finish up the details once you have the picture of the sig up.

Sounds good.

Launch
A special treat is now available for everyone-

PIKMIN: CONNECTION OF THE WORLDS HAS BEEN RELEASED!! YAY!!!!

Well, a lot of work still needs to be done, like ranging from making the areas to naming treasures. But since I am the creator, you must ask me! I am serious!! But if you just want repair spelling/grammar that's fine. You don't have to ask me that. So... Pikmin: Connection of the Worlds is now in development.

 * Cool. Can I help out?


 * Um... I thought I already told you could help me... Just saying. Also, I need help creating the category for my game, OK?

 * Yeah, I couldn't remember if you had or not. I'll help with the category.

Well, I thank you for motivating me! PikminFanatic23 16:49, 28 February 2011 (EST)PikminFanatic23PikminFanatic23 16:49, 28 February 2011 (EST)

Piklopedia
Yes, please do. Just do what Yoshord has been doing to these pages (Two separate links) and have at it!


 * ...And you want me to add the Pikipedia template as well? PikminFanatic23 17:25, 8 March 2011 (EST)PikminFanatic23PikminFanatic23 17:25, 8 March 2011 (EST)

Mega Japanese Disaster
Oh my gosh, I just learned that Japan had an earthquake of 8.9! Talk about scary... Then it produced a humongous tsunami! It went all over the Pacific and even struck the place where I live (even though I don't live at the coast, thank the heavens)! Japan's tsunami was 23 feet high! It destroyed so much houses and businesses... The estimate for repairs is currently at $10 billion! Yeah... I don't want to live there... However, I technically do!!! I live next to a really dangerous plate called the Cascadia Subduction Zone, which (along with the Aleutian Islands) is the most vulnerable place to succumb to the earthquake that happened in Japan!

I'm sorry that this was not related to Pikmin; I just felt that I needed to tell you guys (but you've probably already heard about it... )

 * Yeah, I just heard about it. Apparently a few people hoping to photograph the waves were washed off of the beach and they are trying to find and rescue them.

Unregistered Users
Just so you know, they are allowed to edit again.


 * Ah..... Well, whoops! Ack, what a total embarrassment. I first registered when the "In The News." thingy at the top of the Main Page (which was about a month and a half ago) said that anons weren't allowed to edit due to repeated Spam attempts. Btw, whats the difference between Spam and Vandalism? I'll also edit the signup list so that it says that Anons can edit. PikminFanatic23 6:40 PM (Pacific Time), March 11 2011


 * It's fine, we all make mistakes. Spam is using the wiki to purposely advertise a product, company, or web site. Vandalism is any kind of deconstructive edit to a page. So, if someone creates a new page that it advertising a product, that would be spam, but not vandalism, and if they replace something on an existing page or create a new page with the words "I LUV SANDWICHES" that would be vandalism, but not spam. If they replace all of the links on a page with links to a certain website, that would be both vandalism and spam.


 * Oooh, gotcha. Thanks for the clarification. PikminFanatic23 7:10 PM (Pacific Time), March 11 2011

Your Signature
I've finished it:

If you want any changes made to it, just tell me and I will do it.

WOAH!!!!!!! T-T-THAT L-LOOKS E-EXACTLY L-LIKE WH-WHAT I HAD I-IN M-MIND!! YOU LITERALLY READ MY MIND!!!


 * Thanks, I considered a few different designs but the one I ended up with seemed to match your description of it the best. Also, I set up a sig page for you here. Do you need help setting it up so it appears every time you type in ?
