Greetings

Hello Vellidragon. Nice to see you here. =3 - Edofenrir( talk) 21:32, 1 May 2010 (UTC)

I must say, I'm loving your work here. You're obviously knowledgeable to wikis,and have pointed out the copy/paste job from Wikipedia. Moreover your writing, page layout, suggestions to template changes, and image additions are excellent. These are all very staffly qualities, and I'm wondering if you are on one of the NIWA wiki's staff? Axiomist 19:08, 16 May 2010 (UTC)

Patroller

Congratulations. For your good work you have been promoted to the Patroller rank. Welcome to the team. =3 - Edofenrir( talk) 20:20, 7 June 2010 (UTC)

Edit summaries

Hey, dude, I've been noticing some of you edit summaries, and I wanted to let you know that you occasionally come off a bit harsh. Try to be constructive and friendly so the editors don't feel intimidated, alright? :) Other than that, you're doing a GREAT job patrolling! Keep it up!_Neo(U) (T) (C)(Home) 23:00, 2 July 2010 (UTC)

Congrats

Congrats on your promotion :3 perhaps you know me from the MW  :) --Tucayo 15:50, 15 July 2010 (UTC)

Thank you :3 I'm honoured. I'll make sure to use my powers well :3 And yeah, I know you, but doesn't everyone though? ;3 --Vellidragon 22:46, 15 July 2010 (UTC)
HMm... Now that I think of it... Are you in the NIWA Forum? Because if you are you should be listed as WiKirby Staff. --Tucayo 14:10, 19 July 2010 (UTC)
I didn't know there was a main NIWA forum until now x_x I just looked it up and signed up there, though, as I figured I probably should. (Username is the same as here (and nearly everywhere else).)--Vellidragon 15:01, 19 July 2010 (UTC)
Wow, I thought you had known but chose not to join it. I'll pass the message along if you aren't ranked up now. Axiomist (talk) 03:44, 20 July 2010 (UTC)
I added you ;) --Tucayo 19:00, 20 July 2010 (UTC)
OK, thank you :3 --Vellidragon 13:19, 21 July 2010 (UTC)

Reporting a bug

I was going to but a new version of a image of Chip, so I went to upload, then the templates were VERY squashed, and the text were so small, I had to see the keyboard just to get it right. Any solutions? --Joey 5:57 PM, 15 August 2010 (UTC)

Hm, it's messed up for me as well. This appears to be a technical issue with the Wiki code, so there's not much I can do about it. I reported the bug at the staff board, though, so someone with the capabilities of fiddling with the code will hopefully fix it in the near-ish future.--Vellidragon 19:43, 15 August 2010 (CDT)

Main Page work

Hello, I just added a Wanted Pages template to the Main Page, and was wanting you to have a look and see if any further adjustments are needed for your screen resolution. After I changed my res to the lowest setting I noticed a gap still exist at the bottom of the right margin, which could hold another small template. My normal res shows the right margin slightly longer than the left. My next move will be to try to change the Videos box to make it a little more consistent between the resolution settings. Axiomist (talk) 08:44, 18 August 2010 (CDT)

Hm, looks fine to me. I see no real problems with it currently. There's a rather tall gap below the Wanted Pages box and to the left of the video one for me, though; not sure if that's the gap you're talking about. As for the rest of the page, it looks fine to me atm, although the right golden wing image of the News box is below the "WiKirby News Box" text instead of to the right of it because it doesn't fit into the box otherwise; not quite sure what could be done about that, though.--Vellidragon 13:12, 18 August 2010 (CDT)

New topic

Just passing along an alert to a new topic in the staff discussion that I hope you and everyone else will take interest in. I'm hoping to implement it this weekend.Axiomist (talk) 22:25, 24 August 2010 (CDT)

Check User

Special:CheckUser is the new tool you have access to. I've only used it twice or so when EmmaWatson spammed, and when Turboo asked to block a second account (which didn't show up). So I'm not so familiar with it to write up the UserRights page on it, but if all of those new accounts adding images and nothing else have matching IPs we might as well block them, if it turns out we blocked a legitimate user, they still have the NIWA forums to inform us on and the reversal is simple enough for them.Axiomist (talk) 15:00, 4 October 2010 (CDT)

Happy Birthday

Happy Birthday, according to the skype alert! Anyhow, I think my work week is returning to normal, which means I can finally get things done here. Thanks for holding down the fort with the recent deletions and all! Axiomist (talk) 21:19, 14 November 2010 (CST)

Thank you :D The Skype alert is correct :p And that's good to hear. I do what I can to take care of stuff here, though that's not much with all the Kirby's Epic Yarn edits lately that I can't really patrol without actually having the game or any deeper knowledge about it :\ --Vellidragon 16:03, 15 November 2010 (CST)
No sweat, I bought the game, but haven't had a chance to even rip it out of the plastic. But feel free to ignore them, I'll play it soon and work on it all. Axiomist (talk) 19:47, 15 November 2010 (CST)

Period Spacing

Meh, that's just how I've always done it. (<-2 spaces, :O) I never really knew it was thought of as inefficient until I looked it up a minute ago. (<-again, :O) But still, it's not really a big deal... you don't have to overreact over such a small thing.:P Edit: I suppose it would be serious if done it bulk. Austin (NIWA Operative) 20:20, 16 February 2011 (CST)

The problem here wasn't so much the edit itself as the edit reason, actually, telling other people to also put two spaces after a period (especially with that statement coming from the head patroller); had to clear this up before more people started doing it :p --Vellidragon 12:05, 18 February 2011 (CST)

Maybe A New Kirby?

Well, since there's only Ireland, US, Ireland, and Germany. I might want a Ukraine one. Though I ain't Ukrainnian, I have Ukrainnian blood. Maybe do Ukraine Kirby? --Joey 4:49 PM, February 22, 2011 (EST)

Sure, I'll make one later today; the flag only has two colours, so it shouldn't take long :3 --Vellidragon 17:00, 22 February 2011 (CST)

Last one, Polish Kirby. Simple. Joey

Eh, perhaps tomorrow :P I don't want to edit that page so often, so I'll put it on there when I have a couple other country Kirbies done (well, they are already done, actually, but not their userbox colour schemes :p).--Vellidragon 15:08, 23 February 2011 (CST)
Done and even stranger looking than the rest. Apparently, the Polish flag's white is actually a light grey from the way the colours are officially defined.--Vellidragon 15:42, 24 February 2011 (CST)

Well, gee. My families blood baseline is nearly all Italian. Wow. --Joey

French one? And plus, they're slow because they eat snails. BADABING. Joey
Please stop requesting these if you're not actually going to use them. These take quite a bit of work and time, and I'd rather be spending that on things that are needed.--Vellidragon 21:11, 4 March 2011 (CST)

Axiomist

hiya vellidragon..

i'm sure you heard about the passing of Axiomist..which has hit me very hard emotionally, since i was very close to him. i always tried to prove myself to him yknow, so i could become an admin, and he always said it was a possibility, since it he needed more admins, which made me happy. i wanted to gain respect generally from a community, but now i just want to make sure i'm helping his wiki be the best it can be.

since he's gone now..i dont have anyone to talk to from the wiki regularly, someone else to prove to. He asked me to design the WiKirby mascot, I dont know if you know about it, but if you think I'm making it up, I'm not.

all I want is to make my big bro proud, so if you have skype or msn..please take the time to add me and get to know me..thanks..

--HeathyChan 12:58, 23 March 2011 (CDT)

Hallo. Yes, I know about it, and it hit me just as hard. I know exactly what you mean; I always felt pretty much the same, even though I'm already an admin. I know about the mascot thing, though I don't know what Ax's plans for that were, unfortunately; I'm not sure about a lot of his plans for the wiki, actually, though I for one will be doing my best to keep moving forward with it, hopefully with the continuing support of the rest of the remaining staff and the community. As for Skype and talking, there is a public WiKirby chat on Skype (also see WiKirby:Skype, though that page is terribly outdated) that I could invite you to, though I would need to know your username on there.--Vellidragon 13:24, 23 March 2011 (CDT)
hey, yeah, my skype name is robburrowlover, and thankyou so much for acknowledging my grieving, I think Ax couldve told me a few plans, but i'm not sure, he and I discussed the appearence of the mascot and stuff. Its all we talked about..oh the good old days..--HeathyChan 13:46, 23 March 2011 (CDT)

Comrade!

Are signatures allowed on this wiki, camarada? Nibbles 03:23, 5 April 2011 (CDT)

They are :3 Just abstain from using images in a sig though, as they're generally found to be distracting.--Vellidragon 10:13, 5 April 2011 (CDT)

Long Time, No See

So...yesh. I'm back and I CAN'T wait for the Kirby Wii to come out. :D

So, I wonder if you can make a Brazilian-American Kirby? I'm really Brazilian American, and I know it could take some time, but it would be worth it since I am gonna really put it on my homepage. --Joey

Welcome back! I can wait, as I likely will hardly get to play it, like with Epic Yarn, and all it means is that even more things have to be covered when we're not even nearly done covering the games that already exist ;_; *kicks a stub in frustration*
As for that Kirby, I have no idea how that would look. Just a country Kirby with half of the Brazilian and half of the U.S. flag? Please specify.--Vellidragon 18:19, 18 July 2011 (CDT)

Yes, Half of Brazil on one side, US on the other side. Doesn't matter which side is which. --Joey
