Admin Feedback

Fictional and Biased Template

[−] [+] 0

I have to ask for a second response to my proposals [Template talk:Fictional Biased. I'm insisting on having the template changed, because it degrades the quality of the pages it's attached to, and thus, degrades the quality of the wiki. You can see my explanation on the talk page. - –Dr. AgentChieftain ^“PPP!” _{B / C / D / F / P / S}

New Chapter

[−] [+] 0

Go ahead and review this, but I must ask you to revise that template of yours. It's fairly offensive to the Pakistani, and I've already proposed three overhauls. Can I at least have some sort of feedback?

Anyways, here's the chapter.

The Book of Dio/Chapter 11

- –Dr. AgentChieftain ^“PPP!” _{B / C / D / F / P / S} 02:37, 5 August 2008 (BST)

We will use the content here to redesing the Fictional Template. We will aso write a policy regarding this issue. We will do this as soon as possible. We kindly ask you to have patience. --Admin 13:07, 5 August 2008 (BST)

Alright, thanks for your response. I had a feeling that all three proposals were turned down, and that was that. I'm satisfied to see that that's not the case. - –Dr. AgentChieftain ^“PPP!” _{B / C / D / F / P / S}

Remove word

[−] [+] 0

We kindly ask you to remove the word "illisweed" from every page. --Admin 16:53, 25 August 2008 (BST)

May I ask why? It's not intended to be offensive, nor is it used in an insulting manner. I fail to see a problem with the word. - –Dr. AgentChieftain ^“PPP!” _{B / C / D / F / P / S}

We decided this because the etymology of this word is insulting Citizens of Sweden. --Admin 13:04, 26 August 2008 (BST)

The etymology is fake; I inferred what I could with only the word as my basis. I know, however, that Dio uses it as a euphemism for Swede, to avoid directly offending them. The same goes for Koroushii Pig-Faced.

Is there anything I can do to save the terms? The words are both important to The Circles of Dio, and I think it would be ever more unethical to use Swede and Koroush in it's place. - –Dr. AgentChieftain ^“PPP!” _{B / C / D / F / P / S}

We are sorry, but our decision is final. --Admin 13:25, 26 August 2008 (BST)

Alright. I'm going to talk to Dio about finding a word to use in illisweed's place. - –Dr. AgentChieftain ^“PPP!” _{B / C / D / F / P / S}

Nevguila

[−] [+] 0

May I ask why User:Nevugila has not been blocked from the Wiki as of late? He has been persistently vandalizing Turkey's page, as well as harassing the people who have been reverting his edits. I understand that you don't want to be strict in your enforcement of the rules, but there should be a limit to how much rope one can take before you begin to pull back. - –Dr. AgentChieftain ^“PPP!” _{B / C / D / F / P / S} 00:11, 24 August 2008 (BST)

I agree. I think that a wiki user who is banned from the game should not be meddling in the wiki. It makes no sense! The game and the wiki go hand in hand. --Q J Lincoln 01:35, 24 August 2008 (BST)

I also agree, but it's not like the mods will do anything. Just look at how Koroush had a wiki account the entire time he was banned. --Allan Gordon 01:51, 24 August 2008 (BST)

I was myself extremely surprised when I found out that my account was not banned when my old Erepublik account was. Even though it would mean my wiki account would be deleted I support banned Erepublik users also having their wiki accounts banned. RufusHonestly 02:35, 24 August 2008 (BST)

In my opinions wiki accounts should not be automatically banned unless the erepublik account is permbanned, because where being banned from erepublik means losing time being banned from the wiki is not a big punishment, because wiki doesn't give advantages to the erepublik user. --Mini "Template boy" Bill wanna chat? 09:43, 24 August 2008 (BST)

As User:MiniBill noticed, if someone's account is banned permanently on Erepublik, we see no reason to block his Wiki user. His actions on Erepublik do not have an influence over the integrity of the Wiki. Also, there are some rare cases when we allow players that were banned to start over with a new account. --Admin 13:25, 26 August 2008 (BST)

Template:Fic

[−] [+] 0

The template was transcluding the entire article, so I added some noinclude tags to fix it. Just a heads up. - –Dr. AgentChieftain ^“PPP!” _{B / C / D / F / P / S}

Also, the link in Template:Fictional is broken (It links to Template:Fiction). I'll go ahead and add the 'al'. - –Dr. AgentChieftain ^“PPP!” _{B / C / D / F / P / S}

Ok. --Admin 11:21, 27 August 2008 (BST)

The Book of Dio

[−] [+] 0

We kindly ask you to remove these from the The Book of Dio:

• The_Book_of_Dio/Chapter_2 - "Koroush headed with him to the west and as soon as they left Pakistan, Izirbat was betrayed by Koroush and Iran was born. The followers of Koroush were violent and menacing whilst the followers of Izirbat were good and did not want to spill blood. For years Koroush would rule with terror.
• The_Book_of_Dio/Chapter_2 - "Dispersed and weakened, Pakistan was nearly dead due to the filthy Koroush"
• The_Book_of_Dio/Chapter_3 - "Dio then moved to Iran where Koroush had made his nation grow from forced sexual relationships. Womens were unhappy for they had to bear babies all the time. Men were slave workers, and children were not willingly conceived, leading sometimes to sinister individuals."
• "Dio was enraged to see the poverty of Iran, and came into Koroush's palace. Fear struck Koroush, and he tried to apologize to Dio, crying feminine tears. Dio was touched nonetheless, and asked Koroush to better lead his people - which he accepted."
• "Dio then went to Spain, but the first Spaniards to meet his road spat on his feet. Dio, in anger, killed him with only the nail of his finger, and not a drip of blood fell on his clothes - for it would have corrupted the textile."

I'm working on it, with the help of Dio and the authors. - –Dr. AgentChieftain ^“PPP!” _{B / C / D / F / P / S} 16:47, 31 August 2008 (BST)

Altnabla, the original author, has since taken care of the problem. - –Dr. AgentChieftain ^“PPP!” _{B / C / D / F / P / S}

Whoa whoa whoa, hands off the Hot Wheels.

I'll remove the vulgarities (Like nubcakes' quote) but I want to keep the non-vulgar ones. --AgentChieftain T / H / E

ORLY--Aryamehr talk 13:25, 31 July 2008 (BST)

Insulting is not allowed.... and another idea.... serious quotations give the author and the context of the discussion.... :D --Belea2008 chew the fat 13:30, 31 July 2008 (BST)

Not a problem, except for Miles Teg's quote. That was from 8DeadBoys' old newspaper, which is defunct. --AgentChieftain T / H / E

...Wait. The insults directed at me aren't allowed, even though they're here for comedic value (And to test {{Quote}})? --AgentChieftain T / H / E

What was the name of the newspaper of 8DeadBoys? --Belea2008 chew the fat 00:26, 2 August 2008 (BST)

I don't remember, but I can dig up a link to the article in a second. --AgentChieftain T / H / E

...And here it is. [1] --AgentChieftain T / H / E

{{Collapse2|getsomecookies|HEY|0|4= "“ It really makes me laugh real hard. Lovely to see 4chan /v/'s get some cookies. :mrgreen: ”" When did I say that? :o Can you please find the source..--Aryamehr talk 17:00, 5 August 2008 (BST)

The topic I added the link to in your name had the source, but you deleted the post. My reply was directly under yours. --AgentChieftain T / H / E 18:29, 5 August 2008 (BST)

I deleted nothing, since there is no source I see no reason for you to have a false quote. Can you remove? --Aryamehr talk 20:58, 5 August 2008 (BST)

I'd rather not, as you simply hid the source. I'd rather keep the quote since it's where a Pakistani in-joke came from.

How about you go find sources for all of the quotes in your sandbox? --AgentChieftain T / H / E

You too guys will never end. :D Quotes are supposed to have sources (topics/articles/comments).... uffff..... you two are incredible. I see dead people... =)) --Belea2008 chew the fat 21:47, 5 August 2008 (BST)

I guess we'll never stop seeing AC and Koroush fighting in this wiki :) --Mini "Template boy" Bill wanna chat? 22:25, 5 August 2008 (BST)

Confirmation wanted

[−] [+] 0

Hi AgentChieftain,

I was just reading the Book of Dio (very interesting read so far) and noticed it had the "United Kingdoms" in chapter two ("Iran, Indonesia, and Spain.").
Quote:
"There are many Spaniards in all Europe. Especially in the United kingdoms which was an ancient Spaniard colony."
I was wondering whether this is a reference to the United Kingdom, and if so then I was going to change it to have the internal erepublik wiki link to it.
Didn't want to change it before getting confirmation though.
Please let me know.
Thanks

I'll fire off a message to Altnabla, the author, and ask him if that's what it means. - –Dr. AgentChieftain ^“PPP!” _{B / C / D / F / P / S}

Appreciated.

Let me know via my user discussion if you would.

Thanks.

Not a problem. You're probably right (It seems obvious enough) but I just want to check with him first. - –Dr. AgentChieftain ^“PPP!” _{B / C / D / F / P / S}

Leaving aside that miladzzz is trolling the forum with anti-Dio posts, he's kind of right on this one. The two pages about Dio's appearance on this world are not correlated. (Book - Chapter 1 and Dio - Wiki page) --Belea2008 chew the fat 13:49, 14 August 2008 (BST)

His profile page is based more off of the JJBA character than The Book of Dio. I'll add this to my project list, nonetheless. - –Dr. AgentChieftain ^“PPP!” _{B / C / D / F / P / S}

I've been trying to keep that in mind. I've been trying to make the first link in the paragraph the only one I link, but maybe it's a bit much. - –Dr. AgentChieftain ^“PPP!” _{B / C / D / F / P / S}

Religious views template

[−] [+] 0

I want to get your OK before using this template as all I did was copy and paste your code and then change the words around.

The template I am refferring to can be seen here: http://wiki.erepublik.com/index.php/User:Honestly/Sandbox2

It concerns The Church of the New World (I know we need a better name...). If you disagree with this being used just say so. You are basically the one who made it so I won't object if you say no. (Rufus)Honestly 02:39, 27 August 2008 (BST)

I don't see a problem with the template, but you should REALLY make sure that the rest of the First Church (And maybe Admin) approves of you using a Cross as your logo. That could easily start a fire. - –Dr. AgentChieftain ^“PPP!” _{B / C / D / F / P / S}

Thanks! Yeah I've posted about it on our forums. I won't be using the template until a few there agree. I plan on the cross only being a place holder until we get a proper logo. good point too I should contact admin.

bk of dio

"I am talking about The Book of Dio, using the text as a "religious text" thus it allows insults and many lies. For example: The_Book_of_Dio/Chapter_2 and then look at: "Koroush headed with him to the west and as soon as they left Pakistan, Izirbat was betrayed by Koroush and Iran was born. The followers of Koroush were violent and menacing whilst the followers of Izirbat were good and did not want to spill blood. For years Koroush would rule with terror." or "Dispersed and weakened, Pakistan was nearly dead due to the filthy Koroush" or The_Book_of_Dio/Chapter_3: Dio then moved to Iran where Koroush had made his nation grow from forced sexual relationships. Womens were unhappy for they had to bear babies all the time. Men were slave workers, and children were not willingly conceived, leading sometimes to sinister individuals.

Dio was enraged to see the poverty of Iran, and came into Koroush's palace. Fear struck Koroush, and he tried to apologize to Dio, crying feminine tears. Dio was touched nonetheless, and asked Koroush to better lead his people - which he accepted.

Dio then went to Spain, but the first Spaniards to meet his road spat on his feet. Dio, in anger, killed him with only the nail of his finger, and not a drip of blood fell on his clothes - for it would have corrupted the textile."

Admin said I should talk to you first. Can you remove those offending texts? --Aryamehr talk 11:43, 31 August 2008 (BST)

Working on it. I would rather not remove you completely from The Book of Dio, so I'm going to do my best to censor it. I'm going to discuss the censorship privately with Dio and the others before I start making changes. - –Dr. AgentChieftain ^“PPP!” _{B / C / D / F / P / S}
