Admin rights
Your rights have been reinstated, sorry for the delay — Game widow (talk) 12:29, 18 November 2013 (UTC)

That was fast, actually! Thanks! (Rpvarela (talk) 12:30, 18 November 2013 (UTC))

Fixed News
Fixed the news thing thanks for catching that. I have it set up so if the link is ever broken it defaults to the homepage. You can start adding news to it by editing Template:MainPageNews. Just copy the line with the NewsArticle article template and add a article directly above it.

Hey sweetheart
Want me to start expanding the upgrade pages? New template isn't here yet, but still. OilRopeBombs tlak pgae 16:43, 24 November 2013 (UTC)

Yeah true but still, I prefer to ask permission for bigger edits, so the effort isn't wasted if a dispute comes up. By expansion I mean like the Twister Tweeters test page. OilRopeBombs tlak pgae 17:23, 24 November 2013 (UTC)

Unlock Levels
Yeah I'll add them and fix them alongside the patches if I can. I don't even remember 90% of them though lol OilRopeBombs  tlak pgae 11:24, 25 November 2013 (UTC)

Guides
Yea I still don't understand why froggy G is finding his way into the guides. I might just have to remove the guide templates and rebuild them. The issues is that the list on the guide pages is built by searching for pages with certain categorys. So for example Clunk's guide page will list any page that has the category guide and the category Clunk on the page. So how froggy G is getting in there is beyond me. --Littlefreak3000 (talk) 22:51, 3 December 2013 (UTC)

Abilities
Why don't any of the ability pages have any description of what the ability does itself? I checked the template and the in-game descriptions (which are not very detailed if I may add) are written, but they don't actually appear on the template. What's up?

Do you like
http://awesomenauts.gamepedia.com/Backstab_Blade Do you like the tiny ability/naut icons next to the names? Oil_Rope_Bombs TALK 18:29, 13 December 2013 (UTC)

Sounds like a good idea to me. :) Oil_Rope_Bombs  TALK 18:35, 13 December 2013 (UTC)

The only objection I have is that the icon images could be of better quality in terms of edge transparency and making them fit into the wiki visually better. However, the idea of it is very good, and if you want me to I can do quick photoshop work on the icons just to make them look better. --PuddingskinMcGee (talk) 19:20, 13 December 2013 (UTC)

Do eet Oil_Rope_Bombs  TALK 10:33, 14 December 2013 (UTC)

Sorry I haven't actually gotten around to this yet, school's been a real pain, haha. I'll do it this weekend, though, so no worries :) PuddingskinMcGee (talk) 01:18, 21 December 2013 (UTC)

The Poll!
Hi RPVarela, sorry this took so long, but this poll was a technical issue and the guys finally fixed it. Have fun and with best regards! Encredechine (talk) 21:32, 23 April 2014 (UTC)

Sidebar menu
Hi there, would you like the sidebar menu sections to be collapsible ? — Game widow (talk) 15:16, 3 June 2014 (UTC)
 * Sorry for the initial hiccups, but i think it should all be working now. I also snuck in a few fixes to the notifications so they're readable and match the wiki skin — Game widow (talk) 16:17, 3 June 2014 (UTC)

Twitch videos
Just a quick note to let you know that you can now use EmbedVideo for twitch video streams, which is much better than an iframe widget — Game widow (talk) 16:17, 29 September 2014 (UTC)

Technical difficulties
I just wanted to let you know that we experienced some serious hardware difficulties overnight and unfortunately lost some data. Please double-check any changes you made in the last day to make sure they are still there. Sadly, the only remedy is to redo your updates from scratch as the loss of the data was total, we can't get it back. Our sincere apologies for the inconvenience — Game widow (talk) 19:23, 4 December 2014 (UTC)
 * The wiki skin should be back in good shape now, let me know if i've missed anything — Game widow (talk) 10:27, 6 February 2016 (UTC)
 * Header tabs should now be working, although some skinning changes might be necessary due to some css selectors changing — Game widow (talk) 16:24, 1 March 2016 (UTC)
 * more fixes have been added to the HeaderTabs extension, so you might be able to go back to your original layout on the awesomenaut pages. I have not looked closely at the changes but if you want to make things more like you had them originally, i'll look into it further — Game widow (talk) 23:17, 23 March 2016 (UTC)

Chinese wiki
Are you up for this new offshoot ? I will of course be around to help with the interlinking and moving over templates and css files, so you don't need top worry about that, but surely these guys will call on you from time to time when you make changes. I am always available to help, but you are the primary admin and would remain so — Game widow (talk) 23:16, 23 March 2016 (UTC)


 * Sure, they can contact me for whatever I can do to help them. I don't usually edit the css like you said, but I can help with most other stuff, I think. :)

EDIT: Sorry, I wasn't logged in. Rpvarela (talk) 03:04, 24 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Excellent! and thank-you! — Game widow (talk) 10:48, 24 March 2016 (UTC)
 * The Chinese wiki is mostly up. Here is a link. Once you have logged in, i can give you administrative rights — Game widow (talk) 12:48, 27 March 2016 (UTC)
 * I am back now. Sorry, I had a problem with my PC, but it's fixed now. :) Rpvarela (talk) 16:22, 29 March 2016 (UTC)
 * No worries, but thanks for letting me know :) — Game widow (talk) 16:29, 29 March 2016 (UTC)

Sound files
Hi there, i noticed another wiki using a slightly different sound file extension that looks pretty slick. it's called SoundManager2Button (i've taken the liberty of installing it here for you to check out). Here is an example, using your existing format:

"You cant kill the Metal! - Reference to the Tenacious D song The Metal.

and now the same with SoundManager2Button

"You cant kill the Metal! - Reference to the Tenacious D song The Metal. v-cl-taunt1.ogg

or

v-cl-taunt1.ogg "You cant kill the Metal! - Reference to the Tenacious DReference to the Tenacious D song The Metal.

What do you think? — Game widow (talk) 13:13, 18 September 2016 (UTC)

IP blocks
Hello, Pcj here from the GRASP team. I noticed in the past you have used infinite global block to combat vandalism from IP addresses/users who aren't logged in. Per "Blocking users" on the help wiki, the standard for IP address blocks is two weeks, as IP addresses are dynamically assigned (and the smarter vandals/spambots use proxies/VPNs to show a false IP anyway). It would be preferable to only use two weeks, or short of that, at least make the block only local to this wiki. I'll be unblocking users whose blocks are past the two week limit. If there are any problems with that we can address them as they arise. Thank you. --Pcj (talk) 12:47, 22 September 2017 (UTC)
