Bunnies
hey i was just wondering whats the point of bunnies?


 * Hello. When posting on someone's talk page, remember to click on 'Signature' so we know who sent the message, and so that we can reply on that person's talk page. Don't know if you'll see this but the main point of bunnies is to get the Bunny Hood by turning them into corrupt bunnies and killing them. Read the whole description here: http://terraria.wikia.com/wiki/Bunny Leet-Pete 04:26, August 19, 2011 (UTC)

Thanks
Hi thanks for letting me know about this person. i have blocked them so it should cease now. Gracey91  ✉  07:25, August 23, 2011 (UTC)

Once again thanks. I have blocked the ip, generally that stops the problem, as they are too lazy to create an account. Gracey91  ✉  06:33, August 24, 2011 (UTC)

Chat hacks
Hey thanks for voting. Recently i came across some js to make chat better, you should try it and see if you think it makes the chat better. Add the following code to User:Leet-Pete/wikia.js //chat hacks// importScriptURI('http://c.wikia.com/index.php?title=User:Monchoman45/ChatHacks.js&action=raw&ctype=text/javascript'); //END chat hacks//


 * Yeah IRC is way better, its just you are the only one who voted. So it looks (at the moment) to be a bit of a flop. Hopefully more people will vote soon. Gracey91   ✉  06:51, September 12, 2011 (UTC)

Css and js
Hey i have some more css i think will help make it easier for you to edit.

This code goes in User:Leet-Pete/wikia.css and it will make it so all new categories(one with no content page) appear in red again. // Rendering non-existent Categories RED .newcategory {color:#c20;} // END Rendering non-existent Categories RED

This one goes in the /wikia.css page too. it makes redirects appear with (redirect) next to its name.

// Mark redirects in Special:Allpages and Special:Watchlist // .allpagesredirect { font-style: italic; } .allpagesredirect:after { color: black; content: " (redirect)" } .watchlistredir { font-style: italic; } // END mark redirects //

This script goes in the wikia.css too and it makes forum topics you have read appear green, you can easily change the color code.

// FF4 hack to distinguish visited forum threads .forum_title a {font-weight: normal !important;} .forum_title a:visited {color: green;} // End of FF4 hack

Same place again and this one just makes user pages look a little nicer by rounding off the user tabs

// Giving user page tabs rounded corners .WikiaUserPagesHeader .tabs li a {border-radius: 5px 5px 0px 0px} // End of user page tabs rounded corners

This one goes in User:Leet-Pete/wikia.js and it makes "a wiki contributor" appear as there ip address, but you have to turn off the refresh ajax.

// Change "A Wikia contributor" to IP address importScriptPage('MediaWiki:Common.js/ipAnon.js', 'terraria'); // END Change "A Wikia contributor" to IP address

You can also place all of this in you /global.css and global.js on Community Central which will enable it on all wiki's you use. But the new category one has to be added to each wiki's wikia.css page as it doesn't work in the global.css page. If you need help implementing any of these let me know. Hope you don't mind me adding so much to your page. Gracey91  ✉  07:09, September 12, 2011 (UTC)

Redirect
Hey please don't mark redirect for deletion unless there names are inappropriate or they have nothing to do with the game. Reason is if i search: "Underworld house" it takes me to the Underworld House page but if the redirect is deleted, when i search "Underworld house" i end up at a list of search results. Underworld House would appear at the top but its just easier if the redirect takes people there. Wikia systems are case sensitive. Gracey91  ✉  07:16, September 12, 2011 (UTC)


 * Oh sorry, my mistake. I will start deleting them now. Gracey91   ✉  07:37, September 12, 2011 (UTC)
 * Also i can emplty any categories with my bot in seconds so if you want one removed/renamed let me know.

User guides
Lol thats fine i'm not offended. I'm a bit busy at the moment so i'm making a few mistakes. Thank you for fixing them for me. Gracey91  ✉  08:37, September 12, 2011 (UTC)

I heard that you're going to try to clean up this Wiki, and I just wanted to say "good luck" and that it appears as if Gracey91 was the one who moved my blog to the Users Guide category, which is also a sub-category of Guides.

Community Portal
Hey i'm currently working on the community portal, have you got any opinions on what the page should contain? Also reply here and use the on my page. I want to start keeping convos on 1 page so its easier to read through. Gracey91  ✉  14:36, September 13, 2011 (UTC)
 * I'll get back to you on that, I'm gonna take a break now. Leet-Pete | User talk  16:08, September 13, 2011 (UTC)


 * Hey i have almost finished it, needs a few tweaks still but. Have a look when you get time and let me know what you think. User:Gracey91/sandbox Thanks Gracey91   ✉  18:02, September 13, 2011 (UTC)


 * I think it looks great! You got the most important info on where to go to do this and that covered, which is very useful. The layout is nice, and I like the "Weekly poll" idea. --Leet-Pete | User talk  23:56, September 13, 2011 (UTC)


 * Sweet as, glad you like it. Is there anything you think should be added? Gracey91   ✉  04:41, September 14, 2011 (UTC)
 * P.S check out the category layout, many of the categories you added to Bows are un-needed. Shadow set them up fully for us

- Removing links to unexisting emdedded videos and images. - Replacing incorrect links. - Removing all categories from redirects. Regarding the categories: Sorry but I just copy pasted it; I can't always spot 100% of the mistakes when editing. :P  Leet-Pete    ✉  23:03, September 14, 2011 (UTC)
 * I really think you covered the most important things, and it should be as simple as possible. However maybe a few more things on editing:


 * There are the help pages listed there, thats all i can really link to. Sorry i was just making sure you weren't going to switch all the categories up. Like a lot of the people who edit the wiki. And we all make mistakes, its not a big deal, i personally had made quitre a gew in my time. Gracey91   ✉  13:06, September 15, 2011 (UTC)


 * Oh, I didn't mean to link to it, I was talking about the "to do list" you added to the page. Of course it's up to you whether you think it's important enough to add though.  Leet-Pete    ✉  13:18, September 15, 2011 (UTC)


 * Oh i see what you mean, yeah i will add them. I thought you meant i should explain how to do those things. Gracey91   ✉  13:51, September 15, 2011 (UTC)

Page moves
Hey when you want to move a page to another name, can you let me know and i'll do it. As copy/pasting the info loses the edit history which is a violation of the wikia TOU. Thanks Gracey91   ✉  05:26, September 14, 2011 (UTC)
 * Oh, I'm sorry, didn't think about that. Will do so in the future, if there's no way I can move them myself. Is that only for admins?  Leet-Pete    ✉  23:09, September 14, 2011 (UTC)


 * As far as i know only admins can move a page with the history. We just have a rename option. Also no real need for me to reply on my page about the gif. Thanks, it looks heaps better. Gracey91   ✉  06:20, September 15, 2011 (UTC)

There was no videos on the werewolf, ofcourse im going to add a video if he hasnt coverd it.... quit be a spaz and be english

Pointless Redirects
Hey, with the redirect pages, make sure nothing links to them or it will create redlinks on other pages when i delete them. Gracey91  ✉  06:04, September 19, 2011 (UTC)


 * You're right. I just thought that since the searching isn't case sensitive that the links weren't case sensitive either, sorry. I've fixed those links now, so no pages use the link for the three candidates for deletion. Learnt something new today as well. :)  Leet-Pete    ✉  14:24, September 19, 2011 (UTC)


 * Cheers, i have deleted them. Gracey91   ✉  14:32, September 19, 2011 (UTC)

Rollback
Hey you have been made a "rollback" for your assistance with the wiki, here is a small run down of the powers. "Users with the "rollback" permission are able to revert vandalism and bad-faith edits by using the rollback link on diff pages and user contributions list. They are just like logged-in users, only with one extra button."

This is only for reverting vandalism/spam or it can be used on your talk/profile page. Good luck and if you need any help let me know. :) Told you i'd be getting help soon lol Gracey91   ✉  18:26, September 19, 2011 (UTC)


 * Additionally your name will show up green and i can/will add an exception in the filter for "rollback" so you will be able to post comments like the one that filter triggered. Gracey91   ✉  18:57, September 19, 2011 (UTC)


 * Thanks! :) *Runs off to abuse rb rights.* Just kidding of course, I'll use it only when necessary. It'll come in handy for sure. Also, I assume you don't mind me using a custom signature (as my sig won't appear green)? 20:13, September 19, 2011 (UTC)


 * That's fine, you can use whatever sig you want, the admins just appear blue since none of them use a custom sig and i added that blue to mine. Also rollback will revert all edits made by the last person. So say the vandalise the same page 10 times, you hit rollback once and it reverts those 10 edits. But you can only rollback the last edit. So if someone else undo's it before you can hit rollback it wont work. Gracey91   ✉  06:18, September 20, 2011 (UTC)


 * One last question though; say someone has vandalised a page in the last 5 edits + 2 edits that are not among the last edits, will rollback revert all 7? I assume it'll only revert the last 5? Tell me when you have made the exception to the filter. 09:40, September 20, 2011 (UTC)


 * Only the last five will be reverted. So say some vandalises a page, and a regular user reverts it normally, you no longer have the ability to rollback the vandal edit. If you do hit to "rollback" button it will revert it to the vandals edit. Also if you rollback an edit it will no loger appear in the wiki activity. Searching "rollback wiki" on google should give you a lot of info about how you should use your powers. Also remember good faith edits are to be reverted normally, like people adding useless categories or pointless/redundant info to pages is considered good faith. But if you warn them cos its so obvious there being an idiot, you can then start to rollback there edits. Gracey91   ✉  10:25, September 20, 2011 (UTC)
 * I'll add the exception now, so try adding a comment with "spam" in it, in say 15mins from now.


 * Cheers, the exception works. 10:50, September 20, 2011 (UTC)

Congratz! :)
Hey Pete, congratz on being more special than normal Wikia-Editors :) I'm not writing donw the full word but instead I say congratz, because I dont know how to spell it properly :D

Cheers mate, good luck with the job ;) Smulder.  14:08, September 20, 2011 (UTC)

Sure, tell me anything ;) And sure you're more special, even if its a little bit :P

Smulder. 14:26, September 20, 2011 (UTC)

Contributions
If you find a pointless edit made by someone, chances are they made more. So remember to check peoples contributions. Gracey91  ✉  18:43, September 21, 2011 (UTC)


 * Yeah I know, I added the link to their contribs to my bookmarks to check later, as I'm just half-active atm. 18:51, September 21, 2011 (UTC)


 * Sweet as, just making sure. Gracey91   ✉  19:05, September 21, 2011 (UTC)

Pics
Hey Pete, since none of the pictures i have requested from Kiruwagaka have been done in over a month. I was wondering if you were still interested in doing the pictures? If you are interested i have created a list here, but there are many more pics not listed there. Any help would be seriously appreciated, as i have very little picture editing experience. Thanks Gracey91   ✉  08:16, September 26, 2011 (UTC)


 * Sure, I'll gladly do it. Btw I see you have made a template for your sig, but you need another one as well to prevent the HTML from showing in Source. Just make a secondary template, Autosig - you can call it something else if you want. Then type:  into it. Lastly, go to Preferences and type the following into 'Signature':   Then you can sign with four tildes.  10:32, September 26, 2011 (UTC)


 * Cheers :) Gracey91   ✉  10:49, September 26, 2011 (UTC)

Good Work
Hey, just wanted to say good job on the pictures. I didn't think you would have soo many up so quickly. Thanks Gracey91   ✉  04:43, September 27, 2011 (UTC)


 * Thanks, I'll do more tomorrow, if I'm fit for itt then. Have been down with the cold real bad today, was coughing like hell for two straight ohours this night. Wonder if I woke up my neightbours 15:41, September 27, 2011 (UTC)


 * Damn man thats no good, hope you get better soon. Gracey91   ✉  15:44, September 27, 2011 (UTC)

Times are changing
Hey, wasn't sure if you go to community central very often. If you don't you will want to see this, its going to change things quite a lot. I also know that they will be changing all blogs, forums and comments on articles in the future too. Bringing them all under the same namespace. Btw seen your sig, looks good :)


 * Nope, I do that very rarely. Just read it, I think it looks very promising, the message wall will make it a lot more organized.


 * Its ok for little back and forth chats, but thats not what wiki's are about to me. I use a wiki called ATW where we dealing in code quite often. Look at this and try to work out how the hell things like this will be possible? Also notice once you get 20 it auto archives, so you will need to start a new convo if too many people message you. And we will no longer be able to add headers to talk pages. It also means its a lot easier to send stupid messages, much like what people do now with comments.


 * It won't allow HTML? And yeah, the auto archiving will cause some frustration. Should rather have an archive button to click on top of the message wall, for the owner of the message wall only. You got a point with the headers too.


 * It will allow it but templates that are made for pages wont fit. Many wikis will need to replace there welcome message. Its just a lot of extra effort for admins with no real gains. The funnist thing is, this is to help new users get into thing, yet they have to know wiki mark up before they can use the talk pages correctly, as you wont be able to use an editor. So it makes it harder to do wiki stuff but easier to chat. Like there is a built in chat function, isn't that enough. Btw sig looks better now.


 * Oh I was talking about HTML in the message wall. I don't know about the namespace thing, can you give me a link regarding that change, if you know of one? Now that I've read some more about it and the feedback for the message wall, I'll have to say I'm not so thrilled any more. Every wiki should have the option to choose if they want to use talk pages or message walls, but they will probably not have it. It looks like the message wall will not have a 'preview' option, so if you type in some HTML you might get it wrong.

I can't give you a link since i was told but i can tell you its legit and will be happening in the near future. Staff don't seem to care at all about the feedback, i asked 3 questions and got 2 replies. Both pretty much said "good questions, we'll find out in testing." they don't even know how it works. And from what i hear it wasn't tested by the community council like it should have been, so that means they have full intention of bringing this out regardless of what we want. Message wall seems to be just like comments. And what if you don't like to archive, it seems you will have no choice without an admin removing things.


 * Yeah, I know, the wiki staff don't seem to care much about feedback. They just tell us that they want our feedback cause it's expected of them. Everyone running such big sites should listen to their users, and it's not enough to listen, they should learn to take advice and not just do it their own way regardless.


 * Yeah i totally agree, we may not be the customers but we make the sites for there customers. The way we edit should be solely up to us, but our ideas/opinions are irrelevant to them. between this, the vector skin change and the profile page change, a lot of people will and already have left wikia. And some have even moved there wiki's onto a private wikifarm.


 * Hey i've add the criteria you can find it here. I'll upgrade the template too. Also i clicked onto what you ment with the redlinks, they move to your delete contributions, i'll undelete them now.

Categorizing pics
Just a note, if you want, when you add pics, just let me know i'll run my bot through and it will categorise them for you.


 * Ty, I'll do that next time I upload several pics at a time, which will be soon, gonna continue uploading pics that are missing from the image database.


 * Cheers heaps, i'll run it once every couple of days. Doesn't matter if there uncat for a little while.

Upcoming features
hey its hard to get the links in because it was posted on facebook, but i swear they are legit. but maybe u could put them in an extra box named not confirmed. but pls dont delete them because i wanted to share them with the community.

btw now there are more pictures not originaly posted by the developers but they are posted here

so where is the difference between this and my pictures. i just wanted to share all i found with the community and u behave like someone who thinks his voice counts more than mine :(

admin
hey leet-pete ive decided to promote you to admin. being an admin i not a permenant thing. baically this allows you to lock pages, see wiki stats and edit the front page, along with a few other things. (dont edit the front page >:O) this is because you have made a weath of edit and your a helpful peron on the wiki. I want to make omething very clear though i promote admins as needed so that means in the future when your not as active on the wiki i will promote someone in your place. i just wanna be clear that when i promote admins its as needed and they have to be active. if an admin is not really active for a long period i demote them to rollback and if you decided you want to help out again like with a new patch or something to that effect i would repromote you. so just so its clear it given to those who are putting the ost helpful edits in at the time. we really apreciate your help thu far and thats why im promoting you. if you have any q's about any adimin tool feel free to ask me. your awesome have a good dayHeroGaming 12:17, October 2, 2011 (UTC)

Congrats
Congrats on the promotion. Just a few extra things hero didn't mention. With blocking make sure its reasonable for the crime, only block ips for a week unless there repeat offenders or its a static ip. With deletions, unless it meets the criteria for speedy deletion. You have to use the and wait 1 week before its deletion. If you delete something by mistake you can undelete it by going to the page and clicking restore delete revisions or you can use Special:Undelete, make sure you restore all revisions by ticking each box. I found this guide to be helpful when i first started, not all applies but i think you'll get the drift. I'd say you can feel free to update the picture database now too. You also now have extra options in Special:Specialpages, check them out. Also if you import templates makes sure you untick the "include all templates" box otherwise its a lot of effort. Broken/double redirects are cleaned up by my bot so you don't have to check them. Also use Special:Recentchanges if you don't already, it tells you wants really happening on the wiki. If you need help with anything or have questions let me know.


 * Thanks for the tips Gracey, I'll be sure to ask if I'm unsure about something. I already use the recent wiki changes, it's very useful.


 * No worries. One thing i forgot to mention, if you want to update the community message let me know before you do it. I have changed the message the lets people know the community message has been updated, so it will direct people to Version History(its for the next update), so if the community message is edit prior to the update everyone will receive a false update message.

your welcome and thx for stopping by my yt channel and saying hello my friendHeroGaming 02:10, October 5, 2011 (UTC)

Block
Hey just letting you know a ran a test block against your account, nothing personal or anything. Its just wikia have added a seriously flawed patch and we have lost some abilities. I needed to be sure i could still block. And on another note, don't disable comments at any point, it will delete all the existing comments on the wiki.


 * Admin abuse!! Hehe, no that's quite alright. It's a good thing we have someone who is updated on these things. Keep up the good work buddy. Btw if you ever should be overwhelmed with things to do, just ask me for assistance and I'll be glad to help out. There are however certain things I'm not familiar with, like site maintenance and features.


 * lol. Thanks heaps man. I'm going to be going away on a holiday soon, so you will pretty much have the run of things around here. So i will be relying on you quite a bit then. I will also add some additional features and precautions so you can easily protect the wiki.

u said to leave u a message if i needed help so if u could make edits on the page i created that would be nice but stick to the topics i posted so if u could do tis it would help im trying to make it so new players can get help starting the game leave me a message if you want to help.

Nav
Hey Pete, uno how you offered to help me out. I was wondering if you could set up a new navigation layout as the new navigation has been rolled out for testing and will go live soon. The first tab we can't change, its set by wikia. But the rest we can, you can also use a 3rd heading. Examle is here, and save your copy to fortesting wiki. Btw the button to edit it is in the top right hand corner, it says "contribute". That way we are more prepared when wikia force it on us.


 * Sure, will do. I'll start on it tomorrow. I really hope they won't add unnecessary links to the "on the wiki" tab. I like the idea with "on the wiki" but what's the point in restricting customization for admins.. It's highly unlikely that it'll be exactly how we want it to be.


 * Yeah i know, the only important thing in that tab is "wiki activity" and as if anyone isn't going to have wiki activity in the nav. "on the wiki" sounds kind of dull to me, we could easily fit Terraria in the tab to make it "On Terraria Wiki". I can understand forcing us to keep chat and wiki activity, but we should be able to edit the rest and change the name of the tab and chat. Because things like recent changes should be there, and wikis should be able to add there IRC or other external sites, ie facebook account. Btw i have already copied it across to for testing and added some tabs, feel free to completely change it from what i've got.


 * I actually understand the choice of restricting editing to the name "on the wiki" as it will be easier for people who use multiple wikis to navigate when every wiki uses the same name. But the level 2 menu should definitely be customizable, except for the most important features like wiki activity. Alright, I've been a little bit busy, but I'm gonna be able to work on it in one of the next days.

message wall
Message wall has entered testing phase, check it out. link. This is going to make a lot more work for us when its rolled out fully.


 * Indeed. Also, some kind of miracle would have to occur for the wiki staff to actually take the advice of making check boxes + a button to check all boxes to delete.


 * I have spoken to one and he seems generally interested in my feedback and he also agrees there needs to be a easier way to delete them. Hopefully they do add them. It will make out job mch easier, especially since we wont be able to undo/rollback the edits.


 * Sounds good, let's hope so. I'm just getting kinda discouraged when I'm seeing all of the creative feedback that's being ignored and not taken seriously. I guess the way to go is to find someone who is willing to give proper replies.

Two things
two things wtf is up with your profile picture its kinda creepy and do u play terraria often?

yes i play alot ive got molten armor and othe molten stuff im working on makeing a realistic town im pretty far into it but i can never get enough wood and iron to make the build go faster and with the orb of ligt dimmed down i cant see very well when im mineing to find iron ore if u have any tips that would help send me a messageDeathrush360 21:47, October 7, 2011 (UTC)

ya i do that but i always finding myself running out of wood and iron is so hard for me to find and i dont want to use trainers because i dont want to cheat and if u have any tips for finding floating islands that would be good because i am planning to do and online giveaway of rare items to like 20 players and the top 10 winners get good prizes and the other 10 will get medium prizes im planing to do this in the nest couple months but i need to know how do make a recording like a good recording and i need my voice to be in it to but im clueless on how to do so.Deathrush360 02:29, October 8, 2011 (UTC)

Opinions
Hey Pete, I've almost finished with the Items page (adding pics) but I'm not sure what I should do for the armor pics. Since the full armor set will be too big and if i shrink them to fit, they will be too small. So do you think it would work if I just used the helmet from each set?

I have also written a new welcome message, can you check it out and let me know what you think. Feel free to make improvements. It says for testing in the template because i used magic words.

And I have removed the template from most pages and replaced it with either,  and. Additionally there is also a template that covers ores/bars. I figured you wouldn't care, but if you do let me know. Thanks


 * Hey, i gather you missed my message above. Could i get a reply on that. Thanks


 * Yeah I did. Sorry, I've been a little bit stressed out lately. Looks really good, nicely done. I think the armors should be linked with all the different pieces, instead of only the sets. That way we can use the pics for each item as well. Also, every armor piece article should link to their respective armor sets in one of the first sentences (I think most, if not all, do already).

Regarding the welcome message, it looks good, but I have to go in 5 minutes so I'll give you a better reply on that when I come back.

And the blocks templates are much better now, thanks. I've thought about doing the exact same thing to them. The "usable items" template should also be cut down.

Fraps
thanks for the fraps link i think it works good and i found a world that was probibly a glitich but like the whole top of the ground is iron for like 50-60 tiles and gose like 40 tiles down so im set for iron for a while. congrats on 1000 edits.Deathrush360 22:55, October 8, 2011 (UTC)
