Independent Site
We've found a way to do the new site. Unfortunetly, I am unable to pay the monthly fees or $6.95 (currently a deal of $5.95) due to personal reasons. If we can find someone willing to pay, then we are set. I also replyed to your message on my talkpage. UxieLover1994 17:12, October 2, 2011 (UTC)
 * I'm sorry if I got you confused. But the high Google rankings are because of the greed of the Wikia staff (I'm not being offencive; Even AWA mentions it). I respect that you don't want to move yet, and this site will always have it's doors open for this wiki. I'm very unsure on what to say, since I like this wiki, but wish for independence. Reply soon. UxieLover1994 11:09, October 4, 2011 (UTC)
 * Also, I am active at the wiki's IRC between 11:30 UTC and 16:00 UTC. If an admin can speak with me around that time, we will get more infomation on why this wiki should be independent and how this can be possible. UxieLover1994 11:13, October 4, 2011 (UTC)

I don't think we should post deceased on the Aphelion page. In the demo she was just nibble, not ripped to shreads, also shes a AI like ship, she could just fly herself to safety. Plus she was destroyed once and fix, so they can fix her again.

Dear Tigernose, some wiki contributer (probably the same guy) keeps deleting data from the Talwyn Apogee Trivia. I try to put it back on but the person just keeps deleting it. I think we should banned him from the wiki somehow.

- R&CFOREVER

The wiki contributer did it again and this time he deleted more information. I think we shouldn't let wiki contributers edit wiki pages. -R&CFOREVER

Dear Tigernose. Wiki contributers keep deleting data from webpages. If they keep this up, all the information could be lost. I really suggest you tell the creators of the Ratchet and Clank wiki to make a rule that only members can edit the pages, that way we can find the guy and banned him from the siteR&amp;CFOREVER 21:13, October 14, 2011 (UTC)R&CFOREVER

Work to do here?
Since you seemed like the only active admin, I just watned to ask: --Technobliterator Techno's Talk 10:46, October 9, 2011 (UTC)
 * 1) Who are the active administrators?
 * 2) Is there any guide you can make for categorizing files, etc? I was gonig to start that a long time, but I got caught up as I had sysop powers on SporeWiki
 * Yeah, I did mean categorizing images. :P So basically I just men adding Category:Images of weapons weapon images (as for the others), as well as hopefully getting together a good image category structure that follows any guidelines the wiki already has (ie; would "Images of weapons in Going Commando" be a good one?). Basically, same as categorizing articles, but images are often missed. The categorizing images is one I applied for in the To-do list some time ago, then got too busy to do.--TechnobliteratorCourtney Gears.png Techno's Talk 12:56, October 9, 2011 (UTC)

Question
How do you lock a page ?

Thanks!
Hey and thanks Tigernose, I think I've seen you at the Insomniac forums too! But I dont go there too often since Im trying to avoid any spoilers for All 4 One currently. Which I hope to get tomorrow, finally...

Anyway, Im glad to help out around here. Although I've been quite busy lately and I still dont know how the coding works with the articles yet so I havent done much. But I'll be more than happy to replace all the old low resolution pictures as I go through the games... and add images to articles lacking them. I also may rewrite some articles, that lack some info and stuff. And once I finally play through All 4 One, I'll be able to capture HD screenshots

And thanks for the compliments too! LurkingLeanne 21:35, October 19, 2011 (UTC)

You're welcome!
You're welcome! B.T.W. I pre-ordered All 4 One, and got it two days ago. I beat it yesterday. It cost a lot, but it was worth it cause it was really fun. I'll do my best to keep up the All 4 One content. PhantomHeartless5 22:15, October 20, 2011 (UTC)

Hey tigernose,

Im new to wikia but i decided to help out. i missed one bolt so i figured i could help out and work on the bolt locations but i am at a loss for the template. i would like to do the numbers in order but instead they reset evey category. is there a way around this or should i go about just labeling them bolt # 1, Bolt #2... etc? anyway hope to hear back from you look at the page and see if you con help me out. ill be adding to it for at least another 3 hours or so.

Croid labs
Hey I was just wondering why you made the changes you did to the Croid Lab page..

--99.57.222.116 04:38, October 26, 2011 (UTC)

Responce
Although I accept your choice to stay behind for the ratings, I cannot be on much due to the horrible MoS. This series also contains a little fantasy, btw. The Spyro Wiki's MoS is different, but does contain some stuff from this wiki (we mainly follow the one for the Independent KHWiki), If present tence was used, it'll be less confusing. Sorry if I offended you. UxieLover1994 06:10, November 5, 2011 (UTC)

Spotlight Request
Hi. I'm sorry for the delay in answering your request. Ratchet & Crank looks like it is in good shape and indeed meets all the spotlight criteria. There are a few uncategorized pages you may want to look into; I thought a lot of them might be deletion candidates. I've added the wiki to the approved spotlight list. -- Wendy (talk ) 04:59, November 8, 2011 (UTC)

Just wondering...
Hi Tigernose :D

Heh well where to begin... well basically, I was going to ask you for permission regarding my website and this Wikia. As everyone knows, the official R&C website has some links going to particular articles around here (which is pretty neat I have to say!). And I was wondering, would you mind if I link to some of the articles too - from my R&C fanfiction site?

The fansite is currently down anyway, since I am remaking the whole thing from scratch. What it is, is just a website for my R&C fanfiction story about Ace, and on some of the character and Planet profiles, I wanted to let readers click links which take them to particular articles here. So that they can learn about the particular character, species, planet, etc they click on (because some fans who read it, arent too familar with the R&C series). I'll be doing that for the official canon, not the stuff I made up, obviously. (Since my fanfiction stays faithful to the canon of the R&C series) and I'll make sure people don't add any my 'fanon' here - like they did a few months back before I even joined! XD

But yeah, just asking!

That whole Uxie discussion
Sooo....yeah.

If you guys are affiliated with the official ratchet & clank website, then you absolutely shouldn't give that up ever. But have you guys looked into being hosted by Insomniac itself, similar to the Team Fortress Wiki? That might give you guys the freedom you want to design the wiki directly to your own needs, while possibly letting the official material work closer with the wiki. I mean, hell, if your wiki is hosted by Insomniac itself, they might even be able to advertise you on their forums or actual publications.

I mean, they might say no, but it can't hurt to ask, right? 17:04, November 12, 2011 (UTC)

Angela Left
Ok so we all know that she left polaris with Max, but what if, just what if, uppon moving the Device to Jasindu he had Angela use the device to go a to a safer universe? Preferably the ones the Lombaxes inhabit. Just think about it. Keaden 05:21, November 25, 2011 (UTC)

Planet maps
I know that like 1,5 years ago nobody really liked my planet map idea but I'm still eager to work on it... I just don't see what would be so bad about it, we could polish the maps and even vectorize them if necessary, and we would get high quality results which would greatly add to our articles. This is kinda necessary because our wiki is lacking good images imo (we have almost no high quality ingame pics, most of them are just pure crap...).

(removed the http:// because it broke your talk page >_>)

This was the version of the R&C1 Metropolis map I made 1,5 years ago. It's the rougher version though, I need to polish it a bit.

Nefarious' Home Planet
Hello Tigernose, I think I may have found Nefarious' home planet on a site called Ratchet Galaxy it states on all of Nefarious' pages that his home planet is Rilgar.DrNefarious 01:12, December 7, 2011 (UTC)
 * Shall we put Unknown, Possibly Rilgar.DrNefarious 02:26, December 8, 2011 (UTC)

Manga
Hello! I recently got hold of the Ratchet Manga issue 2 and I was thinking... do you think we should add to each of the character "Appearances" lists; that they appear in the Manga (issue 1 or 2) as well? Because I noticed some pages have listed Playstation Home, Heroes on the Move, etc in character pages. Or I could just add it to their trivia instead.

But yeah, just wondering. The mangas have nothing to do with the games of course, but I thought people would be interested to know who appears in which issue. If not, I'll just work on the Ratchet & Clank Manga page instead.

thanks LurkingLeanne 02:17, December 14, 2011 (UTC)

Block request
Not too sure where to report this to, but I think User:Kaapeli verkosto could do with a block. Do you have a CVU here or something? — Ciphrius Kane (talk) 15:23, December 17, 2011 (UTC)

There are other users that need to be blocked as well. Two wikia contributors, but their IPs are 192.102.42.104 and 88.112.154.181. They have spammed and created several pages with content unrelated to the Ratchet & Clank franchise. I hope you can deal with this problem soon. Ruzzss 21:36, December 23, 2011 (UTC)

Scavenger Suit
Hello, do you think that we should fuse the Scavenger Suit and Future Ratchet pages since they are the same thing.DrNefarious 11:58, December 27, 2011 (UTC)

Affiliation?
Hey there, Tigernose. I understand you guys at this wiki got some kind of official affiliation or endorcement from Insomniac. I'm an admin from KHWiki.net, the Kingdom Hearts Wiki, and right now we are looking at the possibility of getting affiliated with Square Enix, the makers of the Kingdom Hearts series. Have you got any advice or tips? Thanks for your time. -- Neumannz (Talk, Other Talk) 06:31, January 8, 2012 (UTC)

There's a lot of pages which need to be deleted
Hello there, I'm EpicWikipedian, one of the 2 active bureaucrats at Bandipedia. Just to let you know that there's a lot of spam pages here, such as this page and this page. Some of them have been marked for deletion since November 2011 and it's beginning to lower the quality of a wiki on the subject of something that I really quite enjoy. Can you get rid of them? Click here to see the full list of pages which need to be deleted. Thanks for listening, mate. EpicWikipedian 19:40, January 8, 2012 (UTC)

Sorry it's silly to me but I don't want like this anymore ever after thank you.

Welcome back, Tigernose

Did you know that while you were away ther was a giant edit war about Secret Agent Clank.DrNefarious 14:20, January 28, 2012 (UTC)

PS Move Heroes
How do we know it is non-canon, do we have evidence.

Also, it has been found to take place during the Metropolis level of Tools of Destruction.DrNefarious 06:08, January 29, 2012 (UTC)

Wiki Activity
Hello Tigernose. I see almost no activity anymore from registered users here. Is that because of the time when I look or are there almost no active users? BTW, I'm a mod at Sly Cooper Wiki. I asked Hunterj for affiliation, but since he hasn't reacted yet, could you accept or decline the affiliation request? Thanks. 15:19, February 26, 2012 (UTC)

Yeah, every wiki stumbles upon one once. Good luck :) 07:37, March 2, 2012 (UTC)

Admin
Hello Tigernose, I was just wonderning, how does a user become an Admin?DrNefarious 02:23, March 3, 2012 (UTC)

And when/where which page does it happen on?DrNefarious 14:10, March 3, 2012 (UTC)

Neffy's real name!!!
Hi Tigernose, I bring interesting news!

I asked Insomniac what Nefarious' first name was and also proposed a name to them in case they had not thought of one and they agreed to my idea for a name!!!! So can i put it into his page, I have the email here. I stated that his name should be Miles and that he named Planet Mylon after himself and they agreed!


 * Can it at least be mentioned somehwre, like the trivia section.DrNefarious 10:18, March 25, 2012 (UTC)



State of wiki
I've browsed through a few articles over the past few weeks, and I must say that the state of this wiki is just dreadful. I found countless errors on Size Matters, All 4 One, and virtually every page I've come across. Quite frankly, it's an insult to the series right now. I fully plan on scouring the pages and fixing any and every error I find on as many pages as possible, and I would appreciate some assistance in doing so. Since you sent the generic welcome message, I'll assume you "lead" this wiki. Please let others know of my intentions, and have anybody message me as needed.

I plan on starting with R&C 1 possibly tomorrow or Tuesday, and working my way through the entire series one by one. Let me know if there's anything else I can do. Divine Paladin 03:57, March 27, 2012 (UTC)

Re: State of Wiki
It's good to know that there is, indeed, an active Admin on. I sent a similar message to all the other admins, assuming I'd get no reply for a good few weeks at least. Speaking of which, maybe there should be an admin sweep, to remove the inactive ones and start over. But that's sidetracking from what I was going to say:

Isn't there an option to disallow unregistered users from making edits on wikia? (I'm not too sure with the heavier details of wikia as compared to the older versions, so forgive me if that's outdated/wrong.) That'd be an easy way to temporarily shut down the massive cluster**** of edits, to put it as politely as possible. If not, it might not necessarily matter, since it seems mostly dead on the wiki right now (thankfully).

I tend to be on to browse and edit around 8PM-Midnight (Eastern Time), so that'd be the time to contact me if you need a quick answer, btw. Thank you for the offer for priveleges, but I feel I'd need to earn them (via both the votes and actual edits on this wiki) before I could accept them.

Anyway, I'll be starting with the games themselves, and will delve into characters and such shortly afterwards. We definitely need some change on this wiki, considering the "Did You Know"s, Featured Articles, etc., haven't been changed in at least weeks. I feel that you should consider a Nukapedia-esque blog every few weeks, to keep people tuned into updates on pages and plans, along with other things.

Edit: Sorry, sig didn't show up. Divine Paladin 19:23, March 27, 2012 (UTC)

Re:
Okay, as long as someone can contact them, I completely understand your point on the admins. I think the only problem is that one cannot recommend him/herself for admin/'crat rights, if I remember correctly, so you'd need another admin to make the recommendation.

As for the other things, those were more my long term goals/ideas once we can filter all the crap off of here. I'f we can get a call-to-arms for the still active members to fix pages, we could very likely get this part done within two months (as a high estimate). I know there are several members making smaller edits on pages, but we need more than 3-5 people fixing the majority of the 4,500~ pages. That's just my two cents on it, though. Regardless I'll continue fixing a few major pages a day, and I'll message any members that I see making accurate edits to see if they're willing to help on a larger scale. Divine Paladin 19:21, March 28, 2012 (UTC)

Read please!
Hello! First of all, when I saw your comment about the last edit in the Nefarious page, I tought you were talking with the user DrNefarious, not me. I only put that Secret Agent Clank is a spin off. Honestly I don't see what's wrong with this, because the game is a spin off and I even have the proof uploaded here.

I see you have reverted my edits, so I think you didn't like them :P But why you didn't like them?

May I ask you something too? I would like to understand why some pages are written in simple past. For example the gadgebots page. I put that they are little robots manufactured by Gadgetron, but you reverted the edit as it was before. I guess that the gadgebots still exist, no?

And also, I think I have a clue that points that the Omniwrench 12000 is not called this way. I read the Box Breaker description and it says that it is an attachment for the Omniwrench 8000. I am saying this because you can only get the box breaker when you have the Omniwrecnh 10000, or 12000. Thanks.

bye

Malllo 23:01, March 28, 2012 (UTC)

Oh, ok. Thanks! :)

bye

Malllo 13:19, April 1, 2012 (UTC)

I prooved myself with official documentation that there called omniwrench 10000 and 12000 ok just like i prooved you wrong with the momentum glider ill proove you wrong with this.

bye

Thanks for the welcome! ^^
Hey, nice to meet you! I'm not exactly new to the Wikia scene, I'll be updating my userpage soon from the Final Fantasy Wiki.

I'm happy to help, so is there anything you want me to do? TidusTehSacrificer357 10:13, March 30, 2012 (UTC)

IG
Hey Tigernose created a wiki for insomniac games and was wondering if you and the other R&C Wiki contributors could come and help build it up.

All 4 One Pages
Hello Tigernose. I see the pages about All 4 One are almost all stubs. Perhaps you could set up a project on expanding them. 18:00, April 2, 2012 (UTC)

OK! I'm also on "Ratchet & Clank FanFiction Wiki", check out my "Ratchet & Clank: Rise of Infernox" and "The Ratchet & Clank Trillium Trilogy" pages there!

Your Welcome :)
I try my best to get great pictures i really wanna make this site as amazing as possible. Thank you for your comment. it means alot because some people on different ratchet and clank wikis have taken my images without asking and it bothers me. these pictures i take are only for this wiki. i dont want them to take my pictures and use it on there site and take all the credit.

Ryno4ever 20:41, April 9, 2012 (UTC)

The Q
I noticed that you deleted The Q page, and stated that it is never mentioned anywhere, well actually it is, the symbol itself is mentioned in UYA when Qwark states that 'You have been chosen to wear The Q!', it's a big part of the series, so it deserves it's own page.DrNefarious 02:49, April 10, 2012 (UTC)
