Hey there, I moved your message to User talk:Mike Zadorojny/Guild Wars Miscellaneous Bugs#Can you pass theese things onto some guy editing guild wars?. By the way, I don't find you a pain or anything, and I'm not following you around either - I just watch Special:Recentchanges from time to time and clean any stuff that needs it, so I wouldn't want you to think it's anything personal against you :)

If you need any help, feel free to contact me or another helper. Thanks -- Brains12 \ Talk 16:28, 14 March 2008 (UTC)

GWW:USER

Hey there Ash-ton, remember that you have to upload images as

User Ash-ton ''Image Name Here''.jpg/png/gif

. I did it for you this time (I am refering to the icon bin). :o) --Shadowphoenix 14:00, 16 March 2008 (UTC)

thanks, i forgot do you like the archive hyperlink though? oh and by the way i'm copying one of your templates for my user page =] (i'll remeber the credits) --The preceding unsigned comment was added by User:Ash-ton (talk).

I saw the nav, if you want me to fix it for you I can. :o) oh and remember u have to sign every comment (even on ur own talk page) with ~~~~. --Shadowphoenix 14:05, 16 March 2008 (UTC)

nah, i'm ok with it thanks, why do i have to sign even if it's on MY talk page though? Ash-ton / Talk 14:07, 16 March 2008 (UTC)

See GWW:SIGN it is a rule that was made up, b4 I got here :P. --Shadowphoenix 14:08, 16 March 2008 (UTC)

i understand now, but why on your advice project did you ask people NOT to sign it? Ash-ton / Talk 14:10, 16 March 2008 (UTC)

Well due to the same policy, you do not have to sign on projects. It is encouraged to sign however but not with ~~~~ because it includes the date and such and it makes the page longer and less attractive :o). --Shadowphoenix 14:14, 16 March 2008 (UTC)

oh...ok, well the nav is on my user page for all to see =], tell me what you think and then i guees i'll send this to my archive... --The preceding unsigned comment was added by User:Ash-ton (talk).

I would move it to the top, I always think the nav looks better at the top :o) --Shadowphoenix 14:18, 16 March 2008 (UTC)

I was thinking of rolling it into a table thing like your 1 Ash-ton / Talk 14:22, 16 March 2008 (UTC)

Your sig pic

the pic u have for ur sig has been marked for deletion, please re-upload it as User Ash-ton sig.jpg or something similar, :o) --Shadowphoenix 17:52, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

sure i'll change it now, but why isn't it allowed? i'm kinda new to wiki so sorry --The preceding unsigned comment was added by User:Ash-ton (talk).

See GWW:USER you have to upload images for your userspace with the word user in front, it just the rules. Hey, How about I just send you a welcoe to help you get started in the wiki :o) --Shadowphoenix 17:59, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

is the picture file ok now? just wondering and thanks a billion for the welcome page :) --The preceding unsigned comment was added by User:Ash-ton (talk).

Thanks for fixing that, now do u mind if I mark the other image with a U1 delete (User Request Delete) in order to speed up the deletion process? Oh yeah and make sure that u sign your comments on talk pages with ~~~~ :o) --Shadowphoenix 18:05, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

It wouldn't be deleted for U1 if you were the one marking it though, since it's not your image. — Galil 18:06, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

Well if poke can do it so can I lol :P --Shadowphoenix 18:08, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

Okay, correction. I wouldn't delete it based on user request if you were the one marking it for deletion. I would however if Ash-ton did it himself. — Galil 18:12, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

You just gave me an idea, Galil ur a genius XD --Shadowphoenix 18:13, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

what is edit conflict? Ash-ton 18:15, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

it keeps on saying that i can't edit it because someone else is : S --The preceding unsigned comment was added by User:Ash-ton (talk).

An edit conflict means that someone has edited at the same time as you and they pressed save b4 you did. We usually put {{ec}} infront of our comments if this happens. it usually turns out like this (Edit conflict) . --Shadowphoenix 18:21, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

thanks, just wondering do you help run wiki? Ash-ton 18:23, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

lol nope, I am not an admin yet >.> <.< . But the other person that was commenting (Galil) is an admin, but still he dosent run the wiki, well I guess he kinda does. Hes on of the ones in charge I guess u would say lol. --Shadowphoenix 18:25, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

lol, this is kinda like live mesenger, why isn't my signiture picture showing though?Ash-ton 18:27, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

Go to my prefrences; where it says nickname type [[User:Ash-ton|Ash-ton]] [[Image:User Ash-ton sig.png|19px]] and thats all there is to it :o) --Shadowphoenix 18:31, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

Go to Help:Signatures for a more detailed guide :) -- Brains12 \ Talk 18:32, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

ok, lets test it : [[User:Ash-ton|Ash-ton [[Image:User Ash-ton sig.png|19px]]]] 18:33, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

(Edit conflict x2) Shadowphoenix: Nah, the community runs the wiki. I'm just one of the janitors.

Ash-ton: Actually, that's not all there is to it, you also need to check the box labeled "Raw signature (without automatic link)". Also put this in the nickname box instead, or your image will turn out too high: [[User:Ash-ton|Ash-ton]] [[Image:User Ash-ton sig.png|19x19px]]. — Galil 18:34, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

and now *drum roll* [[User:Ash-ton|Ash-ton [[Image:User Ash-ton sig.png|19px]]]] 18:36, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

(Edit conflict) sorry ash-ton the admins live to prove me wrong lol >.> <.< --Shadowphoenix 18:36, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

last time... Ash-ton 18:51, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

Use the code Galil put up above to make sure the image doesn't become too big - the image at 19x19px primarily. -- Brains12 \ Talk 18:59, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

this the right size? Ash-ton 19:03, 15 March 2008 (UTC) oh and hust wondering how do i include a link in my signiture to this talk page like in your signiture

Yup that's it. To redirect it here, go to Image:User Ash-ton sig.png and add this code:

#redirect [[User talk:Ash-ton]]
{{user image}}

— Galil 19:18, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

(Edit conflict) Use the following code to include a link to your talk page in your sig - [[User:Ash-ton|Ash-ton]] / [[User talk:Ash-ton|Talk]] [[Image:User Ash-ton sig.png|19x19px]] (restyle it however you want it to appear) --Kakarot 19:19, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

ok! thank you all Ash-ton / Talk 19:32, 15 March 2008 (UTC) umm... any idea's why the hyperlink for talk is "dead"?Ash-ton / Talk 19:34, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

It's because we're on your talk page, the wiki turns it into normal bold text when the sig is on the page it's directing to. On other pages it will be a nornal link. --Kakarot 19:37, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

ahh! that makes sense, thanks a lot!

Archive

Hi, as per the user pages policy, users are not allowed to remove content from talk pages, only to strike or archive when needed. I have archived the previous content as an example of how it is done (basically, just cut and paste, but a link to the archive like the one i added above has to stay). If you wish, you can use this topic to test how the archive works.--Fighterdoken 20:46, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

ah, sorry i'm new to this... at some point can the archive book be removed (the main reason I deleted it was to tidy up my page) lol, that would explain why everyones talk pages are so messy to!

Yes, you can play with the archive box all you want. You only need to leave a link to User talk:Ash-ton/Archive 1 basically, so you could remove it and replace it for a link like [[User talk:Ash-ton/Archive 1|Talk page Archive]] instead.--Fighterdoken 20:53, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

cool, can i put unwanted parts of information there to? Ash-ton / Talk 21:00, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

Only blocks from this talk page if i remember right. For example, you cannnot remove this paragraph specifically, but you could move this whole "Archive" talk.--Fighterdoken 21:05, 15 March 2008 (UTC)
