Screen Shots

I have a program (Snag-it) that takes excellent screen shots (that you can manipulate). If anyone needs anything specific, let me know.--Q J Lincoln 19:29, 1 September 2008 (BST)

Random Page?

I just saw this page somewhere, looks like a ordinary spam. Xaferrow - Mark vernon

Modified it to be a redirect to userpage, if nothing happens and the page is still empty and unreferneced I'll mark it for deletion --Mini "Template boy" Bill Italian in the deep core wanna chat? 19:20, 10 September 2008 (BST)

Conquered Countries and Regions

I want to bring this issue to the Bar BEFORE it turns into an edit war. A few weeks ago in the August Bar I began a discussion about conquered countries. My intention was to preserve the country information for historical purposes and the possibility for independence movements and future changes in the game.

I updated every conquered country and some region pages. For example Israel and Beersheba South District

Now there seems to be a disagreement with Seductiv on the former Ukranian regions... Most of my changes have been reverted. I would like to have a discussion about this, using the comparison of edits for the region of Bassarabia [1]

I think my edits made it VERY clear that the region of Bassarabia was a part of Romania:

  1. Conquering flag was prominent, Ukrainian flag had the secondary position in the coat of arms field.
  2. The first line of the article stated "X was a former region of Ukraine and is now ruled by Romania as a result of the Ukraine-Romania War
  3. The page was categorized in both countries "regions of X" category pages.

This information is factual, historical and non-biased. So I ask, what is the problem? --Q J Lincoln 14:50, 12 September 2008 (BST)

Is not a problem. :) Seductiv
I don't see a problem with preserving the history of the regions. Although I am not going to create pages for all fifty of Pakistan's regions, I wouldn't mind if they had Chinese and Indian flags and coats of arms. - –Dr. AgentChieftain Flag of the Crescent and Star PPP! B / C / D / F / P / S 19:43, 12 September 2008 (BST)
Thanks for your input so far. I just wanted to discuss this issue and get a consensus. I don't want this to be everyone's wiki, not just me imposing what I think. Maybe my next step in this wiki-venture is to create Conquered Regions and Conquered Country templates as the conquered seem to be my pet cause. AgentChieftan, did you see how I did the India and China pages? When I saw HOW MANY regions Pakistan now has, I laughed. If a mayor or someone in those regions wants to create and maintain those pages, good luck. I have taken on Mexico and Turkey. That is enough so far!--Q J Lincoln 20:11, 12 September 2008 (BST)

Yeah I don't know what the problem it, seems good, especially something like that: "X was a former region of Ukraine and is now ruled by Romania as a result of the Ukraine-Romania War"
Fair enough for me. --Sandtux Pakistan prevails TALK|HIST 03:07, 13 September 2008 (BST)

Independent South African Republic

The Independent South African Republic (3 of 5 regions) has declared independence from South Africa August 7th, 2008 following a corrupt takeover by Croatians who have invaded, destroyed, and tried to create our nation into Croatia. They were not legitimately elected, therefore the government has been declared illegal and dysfunctional.

The ISAR is the most nation of the two, is made up of most or all parties in SA except for Proud Africa (the croatian nationalist party which now changed their name to the Croatian - African Union). They keep importing Croats and multies into the nation to keep it under their corrupt control.

So far, they have stolen over an estimated 200 gold since the start of the month for themselves and their companies and admitted to it. They also try to bribe the opposition to be on their side. 6000 ZAR now resides in ISAR city of Pretoria after we took it to keep some of our wealth in our own South African hands.

The detailed Proclamation of South African Sovereignty can be found here: http://www.erepublik.com/article-613951.html

We wish the international community to recognize our independence, or rather our country as the true nation of South Africa and our government as the legitimate provincial government. Help protect our sovereignty, democracy, independence, wealth, economy, society, and self-determination.

I agree with you, but I think that the wiki is the wrong place to talk about that --Mini "Template boy" Bill Italian in the deep core wanna chat? 21:04, 12 September 2008 (BST)
Thanks for the support. The wiki is a place to start as it's easy to get information across and by making ISAR its own wiki pages it may be better recognized by the international community as the true South African nation and may even come to our aid in taking back our country (hopefully) like the IRA is trying to do. This little bit was also a short explanation as to who we are, what we are, and why... so no one adds "Um... what is this?" to the Independent South African Republic talk page.

I prefer the Part template instead of the one with the longest name --Mini "Template boy" Bill Italian in the deep core wanna chat? 17:51, 15 September 2008 (BST)
I want to use my own, that's why I made it - don't merge any of my templates.
Rasta Lion Esteban Rasta Lion Delgado Rasta Lion 23:46, 15 September 2008 (BST)
Doesn't that destroy the point of having a template? --Q J Lincoln 02:10, 16 September 2008 (BST)
No, I don't believe so; why would it? It's a style sheet for my political party that I use rather than laying out all of the code on the party's page - I can type 5 words rather than half a page of confusing text. There is no need to have just one universal template, this doesn't bother anyone, it's for my benefit.

Erepublik Jargon Page: UP AND RUNNING!

With AgentChieftain's idea to create a jargon page in the August bar, I decided to go ahead and publish it. All we need is some redirects and it should work.

Consensus Building (or Bar Fight?) - The Iranian Flag Edit War

http://wiki.erepublik.com/index.php/Image:Flag-Iran.jpg
I am so tired of these stupid battles over the Iranian flag - and I am a neutral observer. Can we finally reach some sort of consensus so this lunacy stops?

Position 1 - Aryamehr claims this is the official flag of Iran Flag of Iran
Position 2 - John Daker/Nicolae Carpathia, Iranian players in the game, and others, claim the the flag of Iran used IN THE GAME is the official flag. Iran

ALL RIGHT GANG, lets have it. I want people to weigh in on this (not just the parties mentioned above)...--Q J Lincoln 16:16, 16 September 2008 (BST)


I love wannabe mods and also very ashamed of you.

"Until the Congress of Iran changes them back, they will remain as changed by Koroush's Administration. --Admin 10:03, 20 August 2008 (BST)" [2]

This discussion is over kids. John Daker will receive this punishment later and Ikenstein will receive his surprise in a bit. --Aryamehr Flag of Iran talk 16:19, 16 September 2008 (BST)

Ashamed of me for being tired of your stupid pissing contests? --Q J Lincoln 16:28, 16 September 2008 (BST)
Not really, you didn't have to try to act like elder here, I would of taken care of it later. But whatever, this is over. --Aryamehr Flag of Iran talk 16:29, 16 September 2008 (BST)
Is not acting like elder, is trying to build instead of destroying --Mini "Template boy" Bill Italian in the deep core wanna chat? 16:44, 16 September 2008 (BST)
Would be easier to just message me instead of taking up to the bar, "Hey, you say it's official, can you back that up? Would be nice if you could so we could support you instead in this matter" instead of "LOLZ CAM TO DE BAR AND LETZ FAIT" --Aryamehr Flag of Iran talk 17:18, 16 September 2008 (BST)

I don't see anything wrong with the players changing their flags or country names..that's what eRepublik is about imo. We just need to find a way to get admin to enforce it in-game--Emerick 20:10, 16 September 2008 (BST)

^Seconded--Ikenstein Citizen558311 v5.jpg Finnish freedomfighter 20:13, 16 September 2008 (BST)
Well, since the Iranians seem to be in favor of having the current flag rather than the old one, I think we should inform their current president to hold a vote with the Iranian congress. According to Admin, this is the only way for them to have it changed, so if they really want to do so, they can decide as a country.
Also, according to miladmzz, they don't like us talking about what they should do for their country (Which I find a bit silly), so I'm discussing this explicitly as an outsider. - –Dr. AgentChieftain Flag of the Crescent and Star PPP! B / C / D / F / P / S 21:21, 16 September 2008 (BST)

Agent Thanks for restoring the conversation, I cannot believe that someone decided to delete this entire conversation because according to them, the issue is resolved. Erasing a discussion, especially here, is not conducive to a collaborative wiki. --Q J Lincoln 23:05, 16 September 2008 (BST)

No problem. I'm sure any sensible editor would have done the same. - –Dr. AgentChieftain Flag of the Crescent and Star PPP! B / C / D / F / P / S 23:50, 16 September 2008 (BST)

Personally I think we should be able to change the country name as well. --TheSupernatural Me, on a good day Who wants to be a Supernatural?The SaNdBoX 00:11, 17 September 2008 (BST)

The thing is, it has to be done within the mechanics of the game. If things can't be changed there, then what is the point? (You know, because this wiki is about a game? I think people forget that a lot)--Q J Lincoln 01:28, 17 September 2008 (BST)
I mean the president (and in V1, congress) should be able change the country's name and flag, as well as other characteristics. --TheSupernatural Me, on a good day Who wants to be a Supernatural?The SaNdBoX 05:49, 17 September 2008 (BST)

I think the flag should just be changed to tubgirl and let that be the end of it --Senor Schlong 04:55, 17 September 2008 (BST)

My proposition to solve this - someone add to the page of Iran the information that the flag has been changed (+ how it was changed) and how it can be changed back. --Belea2008 Hail eSouth Africa! chew the fat 18:41, 17 September 2008 (BST)

As we already stated several times, the flag and the coat of arms of Iran cannot be changed without the Congress approval. --Admin 19:13, 18 September 2008 (BST)

Parties Changing Names

I am wondering about what to do when a party changes it's name. For example: the party Vatan_ve_Hurriyet_Cemiyeti has changed its name to Cumhuriyet Partisi. What is the best way to handle this situation? (1 or 2?)

  1. Put a historical template on VHC and create a new page called Cumhuriyet Partisi.
  2. Use "Move" to move all of the information (which isn't much) to a page called Cumhuriyet Partisi.
  • My concern with #1 is that the party isn't that different. It kept the same orientation, the name just changed. So I don't know if this is the best course of action.
  • My concern with #2 is that the links to the VHC (which was a big party in Turkey) will all be broken or will have a double redirect.

Please advise me wiki friends! Thanks! --QJ Lincoln 21:01, 19 September 2008 (BST)

I'do go #2 if the only change is name, #1 if it had some mayor changes --Mini "Template boy" Bill Italian in the deep core wanna chat? 21:07, 19 September 2008 (BST)

Did the party change their ideals or goals along with their name? If not, I think moving their page will do. - –Dr. AgentChieftain Flag of the Crescent and Star PPP! B / C / D / F / P / S 23:49, 19 September 2008 (BST)

Supply a redirection page.

Exampe:Public SO Account

I had an idea when I saw this image a few minutes ago.

I think we should have a public SO account for Wiki editors (Or at least the EREP:UBER) to use when taking screenshots of the game. We can have it's name set to "Example", "New User", "Citizen", et cetera, and make the password public.

This would be useful in making image-based tutorials for the wiki, so they can see which options you can use without having to edit out names, monetary accounts, or personal information.

We can make a corresponding public Wiki account to use for the same purpose, if we ever need to.

What does everyone think? - –Dr. AgentChieftain Flag of the Crescent and Star PPP! B / C / D / F / P / S 05:20, 21 September 2008 (BST)

It's feasible only if admins manage to restrict it (e.g. it shouldn't be able to vote/engage in war/...) --Mini "Template boy" Bill Italian in the deep core wanna chat? 19:54, 21 September 2008 (BST)
There are ways to manipulate the images with the right software. See [Politics]] and all of the other drop-down menus I did for the Playing the Game category. I was hoping that Erepublik would be paying someone to write a user guide for the game for V1 and not rely on the Wiki editors to do it. --QJ Lincoln 16:33, 21 September 2008 (BST)

Country and sub pages

Portugal and Portugal/Economy; USA and United States of America/History - Do you think is a good idea to leave them like they are now or do you think that would be a better idea to make collapse sections (with the parameter 0 at start) out of them? --Belea2008 13:35, 23 September 2008 (BST)

Collapse sections, I splitted them like that when there were no collapsible section support --Mini "Template boy" Bill Italian in the deep core call me! 13:42, 23 September 2008 (BST)
Okay. --Belea2008 14:02, 23 September 2008 (BST)
Yeah, you should keep them in subpages, but transclude them into the Portugal page and make them collapsible. - –Dr. AgentChieftain Flag of the Crescent and Star PPP! B / C / D / F / P / S 14:18, 23 September 2008 (BST)
However, I think the Portugal pages are split very poorly. I think the country page should be a summary of EVERYTHING, while the additional pages should be details on those sections. Try to find basic information like the regions of Portugal and you need to hunt for them, however, I think there are the words to two anthems on that page.... WTH? --QJ Lincoln 15:23, 23 September 2008 (BST)
Lincoln there are two different Anthems. One is the Portugal's Anthem and the other is the Comandos's Anthem which are different things ;). By the way if you can make the Portugal sub-article into collapse sections it would be great. Some people in Portugal were asking who deleted some sections in Portugal article. I had to explain them that it wasn't deleted but it was split in different sections. DrogbaPT Hail ePortugal! Drogy man
Would you be upset if I started working on the formatting of the page? Move the important info up front, push the less important, but nice to know information - anthems, flag description, to a subsection or collapseable one? I don't want to do it without your blessing. :) --QJ Lincoln 06:42, 25 September 2008 (PDT)
 :::: Yeah format as you like :). If Portugal article gets better then I have no problem with it :). You have my "blessing" :P. DrogbaPT Hail ePortugal! Drogy man

V1 and the Wiki

The whole Wiki must be updated with V1 (example: the information in Society, Economy, Politics, Military, Media will be changed completely), but the actual pages should be kept.
Template:Beta is already created (feel free to improve it if you like).
I propose like this - all Beta pages be moved (example: "Politics" to be moved to "Beta:Politics" or "Beta-Politics" or something similar).--Belea2008 02:46, 25 September 2008 (PDT)

+ Second proposition - we create a page called "V1 info" (or something similar in which) the team puts the info that must be put in Wiki for V1 - without formating - and we put that information where it belongs and we format it).

+1 (I love formatting :) ) --Mini "Template boy" Bill Italian in the deep core call me! 05:21, 25 September 2008 (PDT)

What do you guys (and girls) think? --Belea2008 02:46, 25 September 2008 (PDT)

All of those pages that I worked hard to make prettier :(, will need to go to some sort of BETA section. No matter what, We will have to be VERY clear that it is legacy information from the Beta. I would think that almost all of the pages in the Category:Playing the Game will need to be modified or moved. (which is one of the reasons why I started the category to group all of that stuff together). I would prefer to change all of the page names with Beta information to Beta/politics, Beta/military and then start fresh with V1 pages. --QJ Lincoln 06:48, 25 September 2008 (PDT)

Special Characters

What happened to all of the page names with special characters in them? All pages with umlauts, accents and "Cs with little thingies under them" (I am American, we don't use those) are now gobble-de-gook. I think this has something to do with changing servers, but it has really screwed up a lot of links and page names, for example - Magyar Néppárt--QJ Lincoln 06:58, 25 September 2008 (PDT)

I have been working on it. It is strange, the pages that link to the crazy ones are not messed up. It seems only pages titled with special characters were. --QJ Lincoln 15:40, 28 September 2008 (PDT)

What is up with the wiki lately?

I am so happy I don't seriously edit anything on here any more or spend even nearly as much time on the wiki, it's become so volatile lately. I used to like checking the recent changes page but now I don't want to touch it. :( Sorry that THIS BAR COMMENT IS SPAM!!!(Rufus)Honestly 01:03, 28 September 2008 (PDT)

Don't worry, there is still someone patrolling recent changes :) --Mini "Template boy" Bill Italian in the deep core call me! 04:51, 28 September 2008 (PDT)

The Citizen big error

I mistakenly emptied the wrong sub-template, sorry what it caused. No data should be lost. --Mini "Template boy" Bill Italian in the deep core call me! 10:52, 29 September 2008 (PDT)
