Spotlight Request
Hi. Gears of War Fanon Wiki looks nice and you guys have clearly been working hard on it. There are a few issues before you guys will meet all the spotlight criteria. 1) There are a small handful of uncategorized articles which need a home. 2) More importantly, while you have just over 100 articles, many of them are stubs (frequently a nearly blank template on a character), and we need them to be real articles. Even just adding in a paragraph of text would be great - they don't have to be huge articles. And finally, your sitenotice is a bit long at the moment; it should be no more than two lines. Please let me know when you guys have addressed these issues!

On a sidenote, you've made a great skin! Just some ideas I had: you might consider turning the text on the headerbar white, tan or even the lighter brown of the bottom of the wiki -- it is very hard to read as black. Also, if you don't want the "wikia" logo and buttons to be blue, there are some other color options here. -- Wendy (talk ) 22:57, 30 April 2009 (UTC)


 * Hi. You can seen uncategorized pages here.  You don't really have very many.  I understand about the colors; just wasn't sure if you had seen them.  If you ever see a color you do like on another wiki you can borrow from there too :). I changed the topline text color for you -- if you didn't want that light brown you can easily change the actual color, but this way you have the bit of code you need in place.  -- Wendy  (talk ) 04:08, 1 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Hi again. I'm glad the drama is mostly over.  Can you remove the bit about de-admining people from your sitenotice then?  Also, you still have some Uncategorized pages, although you've done a great job getting the content expanded!  -- Wendy  (talk ) 01:50, 19 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Great. I've added you guys to the list. -- Wendy  (talk ) 19:17, 20 May 2009 (UTC)

RE: Drama
Hmm.. it is indeed a sticky situation. It's obvious that Josh has done a lot of work here and that the other 2 Bcrats haven't done much of anything, for which there could be any number of legitimate reasons. Since there is no recorded evidence of conversations that happened away from the wiki, which can be arguably be considered irrelevant even if records of those conversations did exist, all we (Wikia staff) have to go by is actions and comments made here. And since there isn't much to go by, all I can do is to suggest that no one be stripped of their bcrat/admin rights and hope that Jaws and Zen allow Josh to continue improving and guiding the wiki without harassing him. I see that a public vote has been created, so if there ends up being an overwhelming vote by the community to remove Jaws's and/or Zen's admin rights, then we can go from there. In the meantime, I'll hope for a peaceful resolution.

While typing my response, I noticed your new comment on my other talk page, so I want to also reply to that. I fully agree that things are getting out of control, which is especially bad considering what you mentioned on Josh's talk page - that the wiki will soon be in the Wikia Spotlight. The idea of a cool-off period is reasonable, but I see two problems with your plan. (1) How are you going to remove their bcrat/sysop rights? Only a bcrat can do that, unless you were planning on getting someone from Wikia staff to do it. (2) If Josh, Jaws and Zen have their bcrat rights removed, then the wiki would not have any bcrats. If you are interested in becoming a bcrat, someone neutral (such as myself) could start a public vote for the community to approve/disapprove of you being promoted to bcrat. Feel free to reply on my talk page here at this wiki. JoePlay (talk) 17:31, 1 May 2009 (UTC)

If you wanted to be a BCrat. ASK ME! I don't like people going behind my back! I would have given you them if you had asked! You were gonna get them; if they were de-admined. >:| Joshua (Talk) 20:21, 1 May 2009 (UTC)

And After seeing wht else you wrote on my page; I do feel bloody betrayed. How dare you. >:| Why would you even suggest to do that? I'm utterly shocked. I trusted you. >:| Joshua (Talk) 20:28, 1 May 2009 (UTC)

DRFA
Having seen what else you have done. I'm very very VERY close to removing you administrative status. I did alot of work too and then you cry to Jack saying: ", I've put too much work into Gears Fanon to just let them fuck it up with their fighting."

WHAT ABOUT THE WORK I DID?! Huh? On my own for two weeks!

This is so cheap and hypocritical, I'm actually disgusted. I'll give you the damn 'Crat rights and leave if that makes you happy!

And for are Friendship it's over.

No regards,

Joshua (Talk) 14:34, 2 May 2009 (UTC)

Oh ho ho ho. I have seen more. You call me power hungry. <_< Like you said; if it wasn't for me. No Gears Fanon, so I have every right to be a 'Crat here. And as for a Flame War. What Flame War? Jaws and I are getting on fine on the IRC.

Still, I'm utterly apalled at your selfishness.

Joshua (Talk) 14:48, 2 May 2009 (UTC)

If you can Get on our Irc channel, I will be there between 1UTC-8UTC. Joshua (Talk) 13:36, 3 May 2009 (UTC)

Thank you?
Please don't tell me you're leaving, or something.

Look, we need to have a proper talk about this. Next time your on the PC, please try to get onto Skype and pass on a couple of messages. I'm gonna have a proper talk with Joshie and you, and Jaws should the need arise. I'm the closest thing here to a neutral party in the admins, and (despite being the one who doesn't have a clue what he's doing) I'm gonna do all I can to fix this mess we've gotten ourselves into.

Don't doubt the decisions you made to try and sort this out, either. We all acted in the way we thought was best, and were all wrong. SuicidalSkydiver (talk) 22:58, 2 May 2009 (UTC)

Recconoiter
I just wanted to let you know i just finished reading you fan fiction today and complement you on how good it actually was =] the character dialougue was really accurate and i hope you continue writing so i can read more! =D Outtasight 13:36, 3 May 2009 (UTC)

anonymous user 156.56.138.192‏
This could be just me getting huffy, but has anyone else had their pages (those expressly telling people not to edit without permission) altered by this anonymous user 156.56.138.192‏? I mean, it could be just a one-off on my fic-page, but still... As been as you're an Admin, Screennameless, I thought I'd bring it to your attention.

And if the person who did edit Dog of War is reading this, I ask you nicely to leave it alone, please. Not only did you edit a page that has an obvious request not too, you did it without even consulting me, and I find that rather rude and a bit invasive.

LoboDiabloLoneWolf 22:01, 4 May 2009 (UTC)

I FEEL SPECIAL
i noticed you changed Pithodi's (YAY I SPELT IT RIGHT) theme to "Intro/Chamber the Cartridge"! so yeah... woot? i guess... maybe... >.> RISE AGAINST FTW (ok im done now) Stolen Syn 17:55, 8 May 2009 (UTC)

Hey there
Are you going to come onto Skype? We could use it as an opportunity to sort a few thigns out SuicidalSkydiver (talk) 22:17, 8 May 2009 (UTC)

Have a look at this...
Hi Screennameless. I know your busy being grounded and with the role-play, but could you have a look at this and leave an appropriate message. Thanks, --EightyOne (talk) 13:18, 12 May 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for the Welcome
Ready to roll... --Gears.

The poll for little logos...
Hey Tori, just wanted to let you know that i sent you some samples of what i started (and im working on more). lemme know if you dont like them or want me to edit them a little. Stolen Syn 17:31, 14 May 2009 (UTC)

RP
Could I join the RP? If I can, here's my er, characters(All of which are Grenadiers):

Cerberus. A tough looking Grenadier Elite, who has a Flame Grenadier's Helmet(He keeps as a reminder to his squad that just because they're locust, doesn't mean he won't kill them, which sadly the last owner didn't understand).

Gnasher. A deadly Grenadier who uses two Botolks, and ya know, a Gnasher...(He's gonna die after his second battle).

Nac. Another Grenadier, who is notable for forgetting what he was going to say.

Scorn. A flame Grenadier, who dies the same time as Gnasher.(Bet you can't guess that one). And no, he doesn't have a Fuel Tank.

Mantle. Another Grenadier Elite who's head is removed by someone...

Havoc. A larger Grenadier, by about a hundred pounds of pure muscle more, is the only survivor of the squad. He will not use a gun to melee, instead hands are used to tear apart Stranded. He wears upper chest plating and full back plating.--Unreal Admin 04:50, 17 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Please do! More Locust is always good. Add your username and characters in the appropriate areas and feel free to make the next post. :D

Are you on? ODST Joshie, Bureaucrat of GoW Fanon Wikia  Talk • <font color="Grey">Contribs  • <font color="Grey">Edits 18:47, 17 May 2009 (UTC)

I was really wanting one last character, someone who Cerberus answers to. If so, here ya go: Theron Guard/Sentinel Rasp. No ones sure whether or not he's a guard, or sentinel, though it's obvious his status is high. It may just be the armor he wants. The armor is pure red, no black outline, some say the color's from the people he's killed. His helmet has a strange crest, only small, but noticeable. His squad fears him, besides Cerberus, who just takes orders.--Unreal Admin 00:32, 18 May 2009 (UTC)


 * I just realized I never responded to this! Yes, you may add him. :D

For the record
Me and Joshie were drooling as per usual, and I made a question of whether or not we were to drool over your bewbs

That is all. SuicidalSkydiver (talk) 18:56, 19 May 2009 (UTC)

Er, Can I join the RP?
Pleaaaasssseeee? <font color="Green">Love is Noise   Love is Pain  Love is these blues  08:26, 25 May 2009 (UTC)


 * If you're going Locust or Stranded, then yes, join straightaway. But if you want to make a Marauder (or Marauders), then I'll need to see your characters first and then work them in somehow.

Hi Screen. Just a quick note about the spotlight if you see this. Nothing has really been done about it, and it would be great to get it up and hopefully attract some new users. I imagine that you are still grounded, so if there's anything I can do just ask. The academic year in the UK is about to end, is it the same in America? If so hopefully you won't still be grounded in the holidays. Hope you come back, Jack and I really miss you on Gearspedia, and I really miss Recconiter! --EightyOne (talk) 09:28, 25 June 2009 (UTC)


 * Hey 81! I know nothing's been done; that's because we're on a waiting list. :P I really can't do anything about the spotlight except make sure everything's still categorized when we reach the top of that list. And I am still grounded, but hopefully that'll lift now that school's out (it was my last day today). As soon as my report card's home, I think I'll be fine. And I miss you guys too! :D I wish I could say I'll have Reconnoiter updates prepared for when I get back, but I don't think I will. :( I'm working on a revision of what's already up (there's some minor in-story continuity issues I'm noticing now), though.

RE FOTM
Oh, jeez I don't know. Maybe I'll just pluck something out of the thin air. I mean, it's not like we haven't been extremely active, is it? :|

Breeding Farms
In Aspho Fields it states that women get extra rations and noting about farms. But in Issue two of Hollow "farms" are mention and we get to see them in Barren since Alex was sent to one. But yeah worse thing i seen in Gears and destroyed my opinion on the COG. But Aspho Fields is a good read and has a center female character.--Jack Black 21:21, 24 July 2009 (UTC)


 * Trust me, I really don't care whether there's a major female character or not. I mean, Gears 1 and 2 are my favorite console games, and everyone knows how feminine they are. :P I dunno. If I could get a hold of Aspho Fields or the comics, I'd likely read them all within two hours. But I can't find them anywhere, and I don't have any credit cards or Paypal to order them through the 'net. Maybe I'll ask for my birthday or something. Screennameless (Talk) 01:41, 25 July 2009 (UTC)

Barnes and Nobles? The comic you have to try ebay they are selling like hotcakes and Issue 1-5 are out of print.--Jack Black 02:24, 25 July 2009 (UTC)

RP? Unimportant newb alert person! [me e.e]
I've been RPing at a few sites lately, but I came across this one and I HAD to join it :P I was wondering, uhm... can I have three Locust and the rest Stranded? If so, here are thier rosters [pages coming soon]

Dwight Hendricks: Stranded. A light skinned male with brown eyes and brown hair, and is completely new to war and weapons alike. [dies]

Reese Marlach: Stranded. A young man, who is around twenty, and is usually fed up with his father's emo-ish attitude, and has sandy brown hair and blue eyes.

Jason Marlach: Stranded. A pale male with blue eyes and dark hair, in his forties, and has experienced war through the Pendulum Wars. This ex-soldier is usually glum about things. [dies]

Emesh: A Grenadier who was trained specially to take out stronger and slower foes, and measures to slightly smaller than a Boomer. [dies]

Zarraek: The leader of the Locust trio [or six ], he appreciates his soldier's help and is trained for advanced tactical combat against the COG, being a Theron Guard. [dies]

Krogur: A smaller Drone who only wants the death of all humans, bu will not give his life to destroy all of them, for he is a new Drone right from the Hollow, and isn't as heavily trained as his teamates.

If I can't have the Stranded, then here are the other Locust:

Intell: A Sniper with a bunch of knowledge about combat and weapons, though he can really only efficiently operate a Longshot sniper rifle. He doesn't care what happens to his teammates, so long as he gets his promised reward-- a good combat report praise from the Queen. [dies]

Shunta: Another Drone, who aims to become a Grenadier. He's a rookie, and looks up to Emesh for guidance and support.

Emukno: A Drone, who wants the knowledge of Intell, but knows he will never obtain such a thing. He's friendly to his soldiers, though the only one who notices this is Zarraek. [dies] I'll be joining a bit late, if that's okay with you, I hope? I'll make my characters and post my peoplez in the, uh, info section of the BO2AE. Thanks x| 06:59, 26 July 2009 (UTC)User:Mecha Rai


 * I'm glad you crossed off your Stranded, because I probably would've asked you to. I don't want people playing both sides. ^^; But yeah, feel free to join, more Locust is always better. And I'm glad you've come to this site! How'd you find it?


 * P.S. Sorry I didn't respond to you; I've been away. :P
