This is my talk page. Tell me what's on your mind. | |||
== Templates == | |||
IMPORTANT any template you make you need to Protect so regular users can't change them. Otherwise we'll have a HUGE mess if vandals start rewriting them. Tell martin too. | |||
Also, try and keep the category tags clean, see [[Special:Categories]]. Some of the templates you added have category tags that don't really need to be there. like the ones you added from wikipedia. you know? - [[User:Soupandballoons (admin)|Soupandballoons (admin)]] 06:32, 19 August 2008 (UTC) | |||
www. | :Yeah, I've been meaning to go back through and clean things up and protect them. I've been busy as of late and I was just focused on getting them to work for the time being. I'll get it all sorted out. - [[User:Megasnorkel (admin)|Megasnorkel (admin)]] | ||
::Okay, categories are cleaned up. I'll go on a protection spree tomorrow. - [[User:Megasnorkel (admin)|Megasnorkel (admin)]] | |||
:::Awsome work dude. - [[User:Soupandballoons (admin)|Soupandballoons (admin)]] 06:32, 19 August 2008 (UTC) | |||
== Talk pages == | |||
:btw i just figured out how we use these talk pages, check it out: [http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Talk_pages http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Talk_pages]. I think I'll c&p it to a local help page on Weezerpedia so new users will see it. - [[User:Soupandballoons (admin)|Soupandballoons (admin)]] 06:32, 19 August 2008 (UTC) | |||
::Good job! Figuring this wiki stuff out can be a pain. I'm glad you're around. Good call on the c&p. - [[User:Megasnorkel (admin)|Megasnorkel (admin)]] 18:22, 19 August 2008 (UTC) | |||
== Transcripts == | |||
I just created this page: [[Weezerpedia:Transcripts]]; a nice little list of all the transcripts of interviews, conversations, etc. on Weezerpedia. If you have a better idea let me know. - [[User:Soupandballoons (admin)|Soupandballoons (admin)]] 09:15, 1 September 2008 (UTC) | |||
:Actually dude, let's just label them with the Category:Transcripts tag, easier that way. - [[User:Soupandballoons (admin)|Soupandballoons (admin)]] 09:32, 1 September 2008 (UTC) | |||
== Other == | |||
I just saw that you rearranged the Main Page news/featured sections. It looks much better. - [[User:Soupandballoons (admin)|Soupandballoons (admin)]] 10:13, 1 September 2008 (UTC) | |||
== New Main Page sections == | |||
Alright, I re-did the Main Page sections so we can do Featured articles etc. in advanced, so when the date changes, the Main Page sections will change also. | |||
The news is still the same, you have complete control and still have to manually copy it from karls corner, but it's now here: [[Weezerpedia:News]] | |||
The new stuff is a little different then anything else we've done before. | |||
We have pages like this now: | |||
*[[Weezerpedia:Today's_featured_article/September_8%2C_2008]] | |||
*[[Weezerpedia:Today's_featured_article/September_9%2C_2008]] | |||
*[[Weezerpedia:Today's_featured_article/September_10%2C_2008]] | |||
which are all specific pages for a featured article on that day. At 12:00 AM on September 10 the featured article section on the Main Page will automatically change to show the content thats on this page: [[Weezerpedia:Today's_featured_article/September_10%2C_2008]] | |||
Also see: [[Weezerpedia:Today's_featured_article]] | |||
I'm working on doing a similar thing with "What happened on this day..." kind of thing. | |||
Does that make sense? You might have to look through the code to get a full understanding. It's a lot more organized and acts more like 'always changing' front page should. It's pretty close to how Wikipedia does their Main page too. - [[User:Soupandballoons (admin)|Soupandballoons (admin)]] 08:24, 9 September 2008 (UTC) | |||
:Looks great! I'll look into it some more tomorrow. Glad you figured out how to do that. I was looking into the same sort of thing.[[User:Megasnorkel (admin)|Megasnorkel (admin)]] 05:22, 10 September 2008 (UTC) | |||
== Infoboxes == | |||
I think we should have an infobox for artists. e.g. [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rivers_Cuomo http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rivers_Cuomo] - [[User:Soupandballoons (admin)|Soupandballoons (admin)]] 22:49, 14 September 2008 (UTC) | |||
:We do have one, actually. I finished it a couple days after the album infobox. [[Template:Infobox_musician]]. - [[User:Megasnorkel (admin)|Megasnorkel (admin)]] 02:16, 15 September 2008 (UTC) | |||
::oh i didn't see that. very cool. | |||

:::what's this [http://weezerpedia.com/wiki/index.php?title=Templage:Weezer http://weezerpedia.com/wiki/index.php?title=Templage:Weezer] Should it be "Template" not "Templage"? | |||
::::I didn't do that one, actually. I think ohjonas did. But it probably should be "Template". Check with him on that - I don't even think that template is necessary.[[User:Megasnorkel (admin)|Megasnorkel (admin)]] 21:17, 20 September 2008 (UTC) | |||
== party on garth == | |||
thanks for deleteing that AWF page. | |||
[[User:MyNameIsJason|MyNameIsJason]] 01:21, 5 October 2008 (UTC) | |||
:Unfortunately, it was necessary. At first I thought it was sort of funny, but then again, it wasn't really mocking him. It was just documenting the saga. I'd really like to chat with you on AIM sometime about the whole thing...ohjonas and I aren't just heartless guys picking on someone with a mental illness...there's plenty of back story. Nothing I want to get into now. But I hope you noticed it that it wasn't me or ohjonas or any of the registered users that created the page. Later home skillet. | |||
:-- [[User:Megasnorkel (admin)|Megasnorkel (admin)]] 01:26, 5 October 2008 (UTC)<Br> | |||
::oh no dude i totally understand the whole thing. at least i think i do. I'm sure he harassed the hell out of you. And hell, I hate having him on the boards. His posts are annoying as hell, he causes trouble, and usually all his topics just boil down to him yelling at people. But I don't think he deserves to have a page about him. That's going a little far. And even though it didn't pick on him, he doesn't need his saga documented.<BR> [[User:MyNameIsJason|MyNameIsJason]] 01:40, 5 October 2008 (UTC) | |||
:::I dunno dude...he just might get there one day | |||

== interview == | |||
are those the final questions being sent to Karl? are there gonna be any more changes? | |||
[[User:MyNameIsJason|MyNameIsJason]] 15:13, 5 October 2008 (UTC) | |||
:Those are (roughly) the questions that I asked Karl on Friday. Martin will be asking Karl more questions tomorrow, though. And I will be sending him more of the fan questions that didn't get asked when the tape ran out. Oops. [[User:Megasnorkel (admin)|Megasnorkel (admin)]] 16:14, 5 October 2008 (UTC) | |||
::thanks for doing that interview. it's awesome. keep on keepin on. [[User:MyNameIsJason|MyNameIsJason]] 07:40, 9 October 2008 (UTC) | |||

== new page == | |||

-city | |||
:Simply search for the title of the EXACT TITLE of the article that you want to create. Click the create article link. Also, please end your messages on talk pages with: | |||

== chat == | |||

--[[User:City After Six|City After Six]] 00:53, 25 October 2008 (UTC) | |||
:If it's an important meeting, it should probably be on AIM instead. AIM: mynameiswaylon --[[User:Megasnorkel (admin)|Megasnorkel (admin)]] 01:15, 25 October 2008 (UTC) | |||
