Welcome
- Nice to see people adding to the wiki, ive seen the article count go up a whole 9 articles since you joined! Thanks for that. Ive replied to your questions on the THN, so just thought I'd let you know that we are around to help! I will try to have a think about making the templates I mentioned in the post tonight (as long as I get home at a decent hour) and will post here once they are done. With regards to the IDB links do you see a small green box after an item that you link? When you hover over this box then a pop up window (using Java) should be shown above the article with all the item information within it. If you dont see this then it might be worth upgrading your browser (N)wiki recommends the use of Firefox ;) - Got any questions then give me a shout!

- Thanks for the feedback , left comment on THN. I Will use this in future for discussion. How do i check for other peoples discussion, via Recent changes link to the left? I plan on Doing all the Jones missions, i don't want to just copy over THN versions as there have been some changes since those were wrote. I am using them as a template then running through each mission to check. + screens . I have done the same with the protopharm Epic and plan to do the rest once i get jones out of the way. Thanks for the info!--Logan Ford 13:52, 26 March 2008 (UTC)
- Best bet is to add it to a talk page for the page you are going to revamp (TBH we dont have high enough traffic to really worry about someone else doing all the work! As for checking people's discussion it mostly happens on their talk page - and Im not sure if the recent changes will show you when thats updated. If its your own page then it should send you an email when someone edits it! Plus you can add pages to your watch list then you will be emailed when the page gets changed.

Just for You
- Delphi thanks a million! I will look at creating a Bug Template tonight. Could be dangerous though.....This is NC after all !! how many Bug templates will we find on here lol--Logan Ford 09:44, 27 March 2008 (UTC)
- Here you go heres the template for the non-float template - lots of options to be able to positions where you want, although I dont think the text will wrap around it, you will need to use tables to be able to wrap (I think they look good just sat in the center). I recommend using the thumb when there is just one image, but when there is two which wont fit in the correct places then use this template to position them next to each other (again use a table). {{nft}}

- Thought you would like the new user contributions user bar - have added it to your main page - however you need to get your number on contributions from here under edits, and then change the contribs= section to your number of edits, doesnt look like there is a way to automatically count it at the moment!

Sysop
- Hey logan, I can see your working really hard on the wiki, thanks for commenting on the Terrarists page, it will be deleted after we have had a discussion, if Sodae wants to argue about the deletion request. Do you want to become a Sysop within the community? Basically it means you become an admin, and means you can edit pages which have been locked and are given the rights to delete and use the deletion request templates etc.? Keep up the good work (I seem to post more on your user page than I do on the wiki!)

Left a reply Via THN PM--Logan Ford 13:47, 27 March 2008 (UTC)
- Congratulations on getting Admin Logan, keep up the good work --Reaction 01:55, 28 March 2008 (UTC)
Thanks
Thanks Reaction! Just Waiting for Delphi to fill me in on it. Sent a PM via THN Forum but is there a way to communicate here without all seeing?--Logan Ford 13:39, 28 March 2008 (UTC)
- Whoops! Didn't realise you were waiting for a PM to explain it all, will try and do that when I have a second lol - I dont think there is a way to send direct messages without people seeing on here though...

Heh heh no problem thanks Delphi--Logan Ford 14:20, 28 March 2008 (UTC)

- Added your signature to your main page - right click and show properties then the address to direct link is there :)

Excellent, thanks Delphi!--Logan Ford 22:42, 1 April 2008 (BST)
Front Page
- Ok seen as you have asked - here is a quick breakdown of how the main page works, and also where the transcribed pages are to be able to change the main page.
- Top Note
- TBH im sure most people have noticed the "top note" section - its at the very top to the right of the Main page tag
- Editing: edit this page - Note there is a maximum character limit
- Notice Bar
- This is the bar between the logo and the top of the content boxes
- Editing: edit this page
- Featured Image
- Top content box
- Editing: edit this page - Note eventually when we have decided on enough images we can make this work automatically.
- News
- Content Box - and internal section
- Editing: edit this page - Note news can link off this page - this is just transcluded onto the front page - watch the size of the section.
- THN/VoTR/Neocronicle News
- Patches
- Content Box - and internal page
- Editing: This has been written directly to the front page - edit in the usual way
- Help, Policy, and Guidelines
- Content box - and large internal section
- Editing: This has been written directly to the front page - edit in the usual way
- N.B. If you come across a page which is transcluded onto the front page which isnt protected to sysops/admins (if the tab at the top says unprotect then its protected!) then please hit the protected button and leave me a message on my talk so I can sort it. Its the easiest way to vandalise a wiki! Hmm think I'll add this to the front page discussion as well.....

Busy!!
- My my havent you been busy mr Ford... lol great to see you working on the site, its really starting to pick up - like you have done if there is anything you cant do which you want to then dont hesitate to contact me! BTW I might design some new sigs - your image is a bit too big for the box....
Delphi (t) (c) 23:28, 7 April 2008 (BST)
