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)
 * Hey, did you get this message?--TechnobliteratorCourtney Gears.png Techno's Talk 21:36, October 12, 2011 (UTC)

Question
How do you lock a page ?

How do I upload a picture properly and what should i save it as so I could upload it properly ? I tried to upload a picture from the Full Frontal Assult game put it didn't come up right. sorry.

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)

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! :)

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

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.

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)
 * Okay, but we need to make a page for Qwark's throwing weapon, what should it be called.DrNefarious 03:16, April 12, 2012 (UTC)

Game names
I would just like to ask why do we use the North American names of games? Personally I think that we should use the European.DrNefarious 02:30, April 13, 2012 (UTC)
 * Also, I stumbled across another Ratchet & Clank Wiki that has not been edited since October 2011 and appears to no longer be in use, I browsed it and found that it has some information that this wiki does not have and moved some of it over, I was wondering if you could help with this. That's all for now.DrNefarious 02:37, April 13, 2012 (UTC)
 * Why can we not take info from a dead wiki which no one looks anymore. KBABZ does not even edit wikia anymore!DrNefarious 01:55, April 14, 2012 (UTC)

R&C Collection
Hey Tigernose. Do you know if there has been released more info on the R&C Collection? Thanks. 18:57, April 20, 2012 (UTC)

Two Device Vendor pages
If you search the wiki for "Device Vendor" and "Device vendor", two different pages come up. I tried to delete the less-refined one (with the lowercase V), but forgot that only admins can do so as far as I know. I'm restoring the page to what it was so that you can see the difference between the two and delete one of them. Divine Paladin 03:33, April 27, 2012 (UTC)

Content from PlayStation series games
I was thinking about how the PlayStation Move Heroes content were not being given pages on this wiki and I though that I would bring up the topic again, I found a wiki on a series called Kid Icarus, on their wiki they include pages from Super Smash Bros. Brawl about enemiess and characters, but only in what interaction they have with the Kid Icarus series. I believe that we should do the same with PlayStation Move Heroes and All Stars Battle Royal.

EXAMPLE, Hades from God of War.

Hades is an antagonist in the God of War series, he appears in PlayStation All Stars Battle Royal in the backround of the Underworld stage.

Apperances: I hope that you will agree with me. DrNefarious 10:29, April 28, 2012 (UTC)
 * PlayStation All Stars Battle Royal

Well we should still create pages for the enemies, as Ratchet/Clank fights against them, I have been looking at a lot of other Wikis and they always incorporate characters and enemies from crossover games, we should do the same.DrNefarious 13:56, April 28, 2012 (UTC)
 * They are still part of the Ratchet series in a way. We could even create a category, possibly titled Non-Ratchet & Clank to fit them in.DrNefarious 14:04, April 28, 2012 (UTC)
 * We even already have pages for some non-Ratchet & Clank things, like Clank Backpack and Ratchet costume.DrNefarious 14:07, April 28, 2012 (UTC)

fake psaspr pages
There is a contributor that is creating pages about Battle Royale with no proof that they are real, they should be deleted. DrNefarious 08:54, April 30, 2012 (UTC)

Re:Hey!
I would be honoured to have administration rights. But not to brag or anything, but to help this wiki get back into working order. There are so many things that could be fixed using administration rights. For example, the featured user and featured article nominations have been mostly dead. But most importantly, covering the HD Collection. I'll do whatever I can to find verifiable information for the HD Collection, and make sure no bad editors post their speculations. I've never been an admin before, so I was hoping if you could help me with the kinks of what I could do. But anyway, thanks for this great honour. -- Haydos271  Chatterbox! 10:54, May 30, 2012 (UTC)
 * Okay, I've already began checking out the release of the HD Collection, and as far as I know it is completely covered at the moment with the limited information we have at the moment, however I've noticed the trophy page needs a MAJOR overhaul. I have put a template on the page as I will be fixing it through tonight and probably tomorrow, and I don't want anyone messing with it. I'm trying to keep the page in consistancy with Ratchet & Clank Future: A Crack in Time trophies, keeping the same style and everything. However, after I'm done, there will be a huge list of redlinks for all the trophies, but if there's one person who sees a page of redlinks and fixes it, it would be me. So I will try to get onto that. I will still be on the lookout for any updates about the release of the HD Collection, and at the moment it seems that this will go very smoothly. -- Haydos271 Haydos271-Sig1.jpg  Chatterbox! 11:24, May 30, 2012 (UTC)
 * I think creating a new generation of trustable admins is a great idea. And about Steam, yes I do have an account, but that was only when I was trying to get Terraria (which failed). I don't have the client anymore, but I can redownload it and just use it for chatting purposes. -- Haydos271 Haydos271-Sig1.jpg  Chatterbox! 21:48, May 30, 2012 (UTC)
 * Another update about the trophies. It seems that many trophies have taken the names of skill points from the original games, and have the same objective to completing them. I'm wondering, should I add the link to the corresponding skill point instead of being a new page, and just add information to the original article later? Because having two pages with the same basic material and having one just be a skill point and the other a trophy seems a little redundant. So...opinions? -- Haydos271 Haydos271-Sig1.jpg  Chatterbox! 05:56, May 31, 2012 (UTC)

Hey!
I didnt not vote for myself. I made my little brother do it ok yes it was stupid, sorry. But its been since october that ive been a part of this wiki adding pictures and ive never been noticed no honoring no thank you nothing. i would love to be user of the month or whatever. But i seem to be left in the shadows while a user who hasnt been active since god knows when shows up and all of a sudden steals the spotlight. I understand what i did was dumb but like ive done so much for this wiki i even discovered a new lombax letter. So so many pictures ive taken, Why do I just stay in the shadows without being acknowledged? Sorry again.

Ryno4ever 23:11, May 30, 2012 (UTC)

Re:Hey
No need to apologise. You've done really well. And you've made the correct decisions given the circumstances. I have no issue with Haydos at all, just want to follow the procedures.

Ratchet Deadlocked Alpha Mods
Hi im Ryno4ever and im currently working on providing the exact Alpha mods for each weapon in Ratchet Deadlocked. I was wondering if you can help me out would you happen to have the original Alpha mods each weapons recieves when they upgrade. you see i would change them and now i cant recall who has what :P now im stuck replaying the whole game. I have the official stategy guide but the alpha mods are not exact. can you help me out? I have the power all im missing is the original alpha mods each weapon gets once they upgrade to V10

Thank you

Right but the problem is that those games are spin off titles and it is already confirmmed by Insomniac Games. The User:Malllo uploaded an image, not so long ago, about it. In my opinion they do not belong to the series, as well as PSMH.

Access to All 4 One
Hey, Tigernose. I'm just letting you know that my friend has just gotten All 4 One, and he's letting me play it with him so now I'll be able to help out with the All 4 One articles, which I know aren't in good shape. I've already created a new article for the character Harvey, who was mentioned by Pepper Fairbanks in the first level. I was surprised he didn't have an article so I created one. This is showing great promise in the information I could find out for this game, so I'm wishing that I'll be able to help a great deal in fixing these botched articles. This game's articles seem to be in the most need of help. Thanks. -- Haydos271  Discussion 11:12, June 3, 2012 (UTC)

As a bit of an apology for the absence (after all, I joined to help out in the absence of others!), I've edited 25 pages today, and will hopefully be able to continue at the same pace as long as I possibly can. Let me know if there are any specific articles that need overhauls that aren't currently listed on the recommended articles page, and I'll add them to my personal list.

In related news, how were things in my absence? It seems like the pages are improving slightly as time goes on, so that's a plus. However, almost every time (all but one, I think) I've seen an anonymous Wikia Contributor add to a page, incorrect information and/or conventions are present. Because of this, I still firmly believe that an attempt should be made to disallow anonymous contributions.

Anyway, I'm dragging on. I'll probably be contributing more in the coming hours, as well. Divine Paladin 03:02, June 11, 2012 (UTC)

EDIT: I'd also like to request an addition to the To-Do-List. While editing the Melee page, I noticed that quite a few Skill points in A4O do not have specific pages. I'd be willing to do so, if it is already on the list and I hadn't noticed. Just let me know. Divine Paladin 04:31, June 11, 2012 (UTC)

Should we use this information?
Hey Tigernose :D long time no chat.

Yeah I haven't logged into here for a long time, but now I'm slowly getting back into the editing swing again heh. I just did a little bit of editing right now, in fact. But I also took some screenshots from Insomniac's old official website around 2005-2006 (thanks to the "Way Back Machine") because there was some old info from that time which might be useful for some articles here; especially ones that lack much information.

I uploaded some of those captures right here at my personal gallery.

Do you think the info from these 6 pages should be allowed as sources here? I believe they are canon, since they were from Insomniac's own website back in the day (I got the full screenshots as proof if people need them). And this is also where Sasha and the Presidents 'surname' was first mentioned. And then it was eventually used in the Comic series later on. And the Quantum Demoleculizer was mentioned here too (I always wondered where the heck that came from, since it wasnt said in the game anywhere).

The news articles also mention other things, such as the Amoeboid Mafia, more of Courtney Gears songs, and more information about Starshield. Although not ALL the info would be canon, since Juanita and Dallas joke around a bit and make up lies about Sasha and other characters (just like in Deadlocked).

So yeah, what do you think? I thought I should ask first before posting the screenshots or any information here. Thanks! LurkingLeanne 11:00, June 12, 2012 (UTC)

EDIT reply: Alright then, sweet! I'll do that right now, but I dont have a lot of time to edit lots of articles yet (possibly later today or so), but i'll at least upload the screenshots here now =P

But yeah, some info is obviously just jokes (like Juanita saying that Sasha might be a 'shape-shifting Zygonian Vampire' XD) but I also noticed this is where the Thyrullian Galaxy was ever mentioned. And lots of other bits and pieces. I'm still not really used to how the Wikia works with coding and stuff, but I'll learn. Thanks again =P LurkingLeanne 23:27, June 12, 2012 (UTC)

Huh... why does some idiot keep editing MY message for? Are they offended about the info about Sasha and Ratchet? yeesh. How annoying... I'm only stating facts that are from Insomniac themselves. No fanfiction theories here.

Anons
So that you are aware, two different anons have tried to 'correct' the above talk page message. I reverted the last. Strange... Hunterj Hunterj's Resort 20:07, June 12, 2012 (UTC)

Merge?
This is a message from Malllo I'd like your opinion on:
 * "do you know if this page should be merged with this page?"

I'm thinking Lombax Clone, merges into Ratchet Clone with Conjecture tag, but I'd appreciate your input. Many thanks, <font face="Aurek-Besh Hand">Hunterj Hunterj's Resort 21:52, June 15, 2012 (UTC)

Re: Skill points
The only part that I really intended to edit for was the tenses themselves. Given that I saw one skill point article within the Skill points, that had a Verb Tense Issue "note" (I don't know the technical term for those) attached, I continued under the assumption that it had been brought up and noted within at least some of the skill point articles before. It was added in by an admin, if I remember correctly, which is why I continued and didn't go back to revert the ones I'd already done. It wasn't too big of a leap for the article descriptions on average (I changed about six words from the skill point description to make it past tense), either, so it's not a huge hassle to change them back if an IRC chooses to reverse my hasty decision.

I guess I jumped the gun a bit, but I feel that, after looking at the guide fixes/additions I made, I think most of them needed an edit regardless. I didn't think about bringing it up with IRC, which was a mistake on my part, but I doubt there'll be a meeting in the near future or at least until more admins are brought in/come back, so it would have likely been forgotten by the time it would've been brought up.

Anyway, I'll continue adding guides to the articles and placing them into the past tense, and if an IRC meeting does reverse it to present tense, I will be more than happy to edit all the pages to fit the present tense. Consider it my punishment, if you will.

I do apologize for completely disregarding the IRC meetings, because as I said earlier, it never crossed my mind when I started last night. It was definitely a mistake on my part (one that was bound to happen, and one I'm glad I made this early on in my editing career), and I'll be happy and willing to fix all of the articles if the decision is made to do so. It's my hole and I dug it, so I'll take responsibility of fixing it. Lemme know if there is any other issue you have. Divine Paladin 02:18, June 18, 2012 (UTC)

Talk page
While I do not normally recommend it, can I suggest you protect your talk page from anon edits for a while? More editing (http://ratchet.wikia.com/index.php?title=User_talk%3ATigernose&action=historysubmit&diff=142499&oldid=142481)... Maybe put a notice at the top asking users to log-in or talk to another administrator if needed. Just for a month or so. Ridiculous. <font face="Aurek-Besh Hand">Hunterj Hunterj's Resort 14:54, June 20, 2012 (UTC)

Hello. I sometimes delete some people messages to keep my talk page more organized :]

bye

Low Res Images & Unknown Species
Hey Tigernose! I've been a bit more active around here lately, well with providing HD images and stuff (thanks to the R&C HD Trilogy) and so I was hoping that if you or any user really, comes across any low res/ugly images on here, that they could add them to this section Low resolution images so I can go through and slowly edit them.

And also, I noticed somebody (or 2 people) keeps adding this 'Unknown two-fingered humanoid species' page, and I just dont think that it's nessesary. And they think that Ace Hardlight is the same species as Qwark, but it's obviously not true because they're completely different from each other (Ace has fangs, spots, etc. Qwark isnt like that). I do think that maybe 'Organic Nefarious' and Lance are the same kind as Qwark though, but there isn't enough proof me thinks. And it just seems way too fanfiction-y (is that even a word? lol) to add this stuff. What do you think? I keep trying to edit it but the person keeps adding back the false info. Thanks

Countries
In regards to the deletion of the countries page and Lombax Government page, I disagree and think they should stay. You said that there is no mention of countries, but there clearly is. E.g. Solana Government, Polaris Government, Free Polaris, Tachyon Empire, Cragmite Empire, Glaciara Kingdom, there are many more.

Countries never being mentioned doesn't rule out that there are countries. Such as the Blargian Government; they obviously are a country because they have a Chairman, departments, and rule a wide array of planets, and have an organised Army. Or the Nefarious Government, his Army clearly was or was eventually going to be a Government because he intended to rule the Galaxy of robots. He'd only be able to do that by setting up a country or military government.

And there clearly is a Lombax Government as well, as there is a Court system, Army, departments, and foreign territories. You'd need a Government to do that. An independent group of Lombaxes that are only an organisation cannot do things like that, it would be impossible.

The countries page should stay because these points increase the likeliness, and also prove that many things could be impossible for an organisation of independent cells, that could only be done by an organised country.  Broc    msg     Blog   22:47, July 8, 2012 (UTC)
