== GCON's growing ==
+
== Watched articles list ==
  
You will probably say no but we would like our category to be listed somewhere in the UN category as the enemies of the UN. We have been trying to add as much as we can that has happened in GCON like all our Rp's and trying to tie them all together to make a great long story. We see this site as a great way of doing this and enjoy using it. If their were to be some sort of fee to this maybe we can come to some sort of arrangement. Thankyou (even though this might just seem annoying)

It seems that the WAL is not updated: I had decided to see only the 3 last days modification, but still I can see all modified article, from october! It is an error of the database? [[User:Rufus T. Firefly|Rufus T. Firefly]] 07:17, 15 Jun 2005 (GMT)

== Idea ==
 
  
I saw the discussion on [[Social welfare]] - and I agree entirely with the cause of complaint. What strikes me is that if it's a repeated problem, perhaps a message should be added to either the main page or the "create new article"/"edit article" pages to warn people about keeping submission content relevent to NS?
+
I hope this is the right spot.  Remember when you talked about needing an NGO category ... well, I went ahead (boldness, huh?) and created an NGO category.  I figure we'll also need a description of what an NGO is, and I can write that. [[User:Mikitivity|Mikitivity]] 20 July 2005 00:47 (GMT)

==New messages alert==

Hi! The ''new messages'' alert continue to be on my account, also if I had read the message (it is a week old). It's my problem or it is a bug? [[User:Rufus T. Firefly|Rufus T. Firefly]] 2 August 2005 07:59 (GMT)
  
== About the [[Megadoomer Union of Nations]] ==
+
hi, i know i copy/pasted, i was using that text as a place holder for them to edit, ill modify it
  
Thanks for your concern, Fris. Each of the nation pages you see in that list were created by that nation's owner, and ''not'' by me or anyone else, so I don't think that can be constituted as Regional Nation Spamming. I'm aware that a couple of the nations' pages are very bland right now (as in, all they've done is their infobox -_-) but I can assure you that they'll fill their data in soon -- and don't worry, I have no intention of making "placeholder" pages for our nations -- they'll make their own wiki pages when they get around to it.
+
== Vietnam block ==
  
As for all the red links in the list, it's nice to be able to see which of our nations have made their wiki pages (so I can pester those who haven't ;D), but if it's that big of a problem, I can un-link the nations that haven't made one yet and have them re-link it when they do...
+
After a review of edits via the database, I've found no legitimate edits from that IP range.  However, since it ''is'' a large part of a country, I'm going to modify the block to a 3-month block instead of indefinite - it can always be extended. Of course, if you disagree with me on this, let me know. --[[User:Goobergunch|Goobergunch]]|[[User talk:Goobergunch|?]] 08:41, 19 October 2005 (GMT)

<s>Fris, I'm having a problem with the NSwiki. For some reason, when I click on "edit this page" it asks me what program I'd like to open it with. I've never had this problem before.

== Gotta get rid of this warning. ==
  
''Update''
+
While remodelling Canada's regional NSwiki page a very annoying warning showed up at the top.
On IRC.
+
  
Geez.... i was so blind :)
+
Warning: shell_exec(): Cannot execute using backquotes in Safe Mode in /mounted-storage/home2/sub003/sc434/ns/wiki/includes/Image.php on line 1037
Thanks

Not only does the image not show up but you'll find that if I remove the tag for the regional map (at the very bottom) the warning goes away.
  
== On the Links ==
+
Also... I can place and display the image in it's original size but apparently I cannot reduce it. It simply does not show up. [[Canada]]
  
Hmm... I see what you're saying about the links. I'll try to work something out. I'll try the Senate page idea.

[[Canada6]]
  
Hey, I just got my list of nation leaders stickied. Should I post a duplicate here so everybody can edit their own and I can just come once or twice a day to update it? It still won't replace the NS forums, but it could also be a back-up.

I couldn't find any public help pages, so I decided I should ask you.

== Links? ==
+
== Brega and Mide here ==
  
Actually all of the links on my web page are ones that I intend to put onto the site.  I wrote what is there, so, I don't understand the problem in leaving a few dead links there until i get around to doing it.
+
Check out the page on Ireland, I object to references to the pre-refound Ireland being completely deleted.
 
+
Also, I am not exactly that young...  I do have over a billion, compared to some that is young yes.  Also, for the sake of geopolitical simulation, am I not allowed to assume an existing nation and morph it into NS reality, that is the true excitement, thereby you are limited and must act accordingly.  Also, you removed some links that weren't repeated.  Note:  The "Berlin Wall," I will specify was actually somethign we created... well in the forums.. and in orur minds in my region of Vassgsfjord.  So.. I unlinked it form wikipedia.

Ok Fris, this is GCON talking.
+
 
+
One, yes we did vandalize some pages. As for you telling me to let GCON members make thier entries here.. well..
+
 
+
do a little research on GCON before you tell me what to do; I am the emperor of the region, and was asked to do this for them. I have one person helping, and so the entries are slow in the coming.
+
 
+
Also, please tell Kontrosena to die. He is a member of GCON.

I would like you to see what we are all about, so come check us out on out regional site, www.gcowar.com

== Redirect of my talk page ==
+
 
+
I'm not sure how you found my name, but I'm no longer that active around NS. Still, I keep my nation active. I think I'll make my user page a redirect to my talk page, and that a soft redirect to my Wikipedia talk page. [[User:Alphax|Alphax]] 09:17, 9 Mar 2005 (GMT)
+
 
+
== ''Mea culpa'' ==
+
Sorry about incorrect redirect from [[North Pacific]] to [[The North Pacfic]], I was just trying to keep things tidy. I picked up this habit on Wikipedia, and it doesn't transfer well to NSWiki because the leading articles, spacing and spelling are sometimes intentionally bizarre. 
+
 
+
Another redirect I did included a typo (?) of Opressed (sic); I added my uncertainty on the redirect.  I haven't created an account on NS Wiki; would this help you keep track of me and reduce the chances of me mucking things up rather than clarifying them as I truly indend?
+
 
+
Thanks for your efforts at the NSWiki.

Re: [[User_talk:Arancaytar#Image links in your category]]
+
 
+
That sounds like a good idea, yes. I'll check out Wikipedia's policy later today and see what I can find. ;)
+
 
+
Incidentally: The image links in the category currently do not work because the file names were spelled wrong. I was too rushed to verify I'd gotten them right - Laketomor.gif should actually be .jpg .
+
The [[:Image:Aeruillinmap.gif]] link should work correctly however; it does for me.

== Republic of Freedonia Image ==

+
I had noted that you had deleted the image of the map on my [[Republic of Freedonia]] article, because it was broken. But it is no right: the problem is that it is a thumb image, and the upload service is now unable to make preview of image (talk with Goobergunch about this). [[User:Rufus T. Firefly|Rufus T.

== RL stubs ==
+
 
+
Uh, this article I wrote is not a real-world stub.
+
http://ns.goobergunch.net/wiki/index.php/Anti_Tank_Rifles
+
Yes, some of it is real world. however, I wrote it to have a category that the CM99 ATR would fit in. The regular Wiki does not have such an article in its database.
+
 
+
== I goofed again ==
+
 
+
Hi again. I've just added two new articles and I think I need some help again (sorry). The first is [[Sacco & Vanzetti Satellite TV]] - which you'll notice has an ampersand in it. There's a rather long-winded explanation about why it's there but I only just realised it shouldn't be there as a wiki naming convention and it should have been piped so the page was "and" but the link said "&". How do I go about changing it? Do I create a new page with the proper naming convention, move the article there and then ask for someone to delete the "&" page?
+
 
+
Secondly, I also added a [[Peoples Proliferation]] page. There's no issues with this (as far as I'm aware) but I wondered how I go about putting both of these new pages into a category (if there is one). I've looked most places I can think of for information about how to do it and for a list of categories to see if there is a relevant one for either article but drawn a blank.
+
 
+
Thanks [[User:Sacco and Vanzetti|Sacco and Vanzetti]] 20:24, 24 Apr 2005 (GMT)
