==Moderators==
Hi! Just wanted to ask if all moderators were chosen during the early days of TFwiki. Thanks. [[User:Optimus Prime (Convoy)|Optimus Prime (Convoy)]] ([[User talk:Optimus Prime (Convoy)|talk]]) 03:41, 1 January 2015 (EST)
:By the way, apparently iOS doesn't like to allow users to view recent edits, histories or even edit at all.[[User:Optimus Prime (Convoy)|Optimus Prime (Convoy)]] ([[User talk:Optimus Prime (Convoy)|talk]]) 03:44, 1 January 2015 (EST)

==Small favor==
While extracting Macro's backstory from the game files, two letters didn't come out right. I don't know much about Transformers Lore and just wondering if you got any suggestions on what each of the letters might be? (Considering the rest of Macro's backstory does seem mention references to existing locations in TF lore.)
Here's the words that contain missing letters: 
*"Speed*a"
*"Tower of *ion"
[[User:Plasmapause|Plasmapause]] ([[User talk:Plasmapause|talk]]) 16:17, 5 January 2015 (EST)
:For the first, there's the [[Speedia|Speedia 500]] - Speedia is also the Japanese name for [[Velocitron]].
:For the second, probably the [[Tower of Pion]]. --[[User:Abates|abates]] ([[User talk:Abates|talk]]) 16:28, 5 January 2015 (EST)
::That certainly fits in perfectly, many thanks for your help! -- [[User:Plasmapause|Plasmapause]] ([[User talk:Plasmapause|talk]]) 16:48, 5 January 2015 (EST)

== Double-redirects ==

Sorry, forgot t'check the really obvious bits! - [[User:SanityOrMadness|SanityOrMadness]] ([[User talk:SanityOrMadness|talk]]) 05:34, 21 January 2015 (EST)
:No worries! --[[User:Abates|abates]] ([[User talk:Abates|talk]]) 05:50, 21 January 2015 (EST)

== Image Import Error ==

I stuck a bunch of files with no description whatsoever in C:IIE a while back in the hope it might prompt someone to identify where they came from. - [[User:SanityOrMadness|SanityOrMadness]] ([[User talk:SanityOrMadness|talk]]) 06:19, 8 February 2015 (EST)
:That's really a situation where applying a template would be better, I think. They're more visible on the image description than a category is. :) --[[User:Abates|abates]] ([[User talk:Abates|talk]]) 14:32, 8 February 2015 (EST)
::Fair point. I think I didn't want to create the template at the time. - [[User:SanityOrMadness|SanityOrMadness]] ([[User talk:SanityOrMadness|talk]]) 19:24, 8 February 2015 (EST)

==Paper Magic Group==

Dunno what's going on with them, but we usually have 2 - 3 sets a year from them with the same name despite covering different continuities. I find that sticking a franchise tag on each page is likely the best way to keep them apart. [[User:Ironhold|Ironhold]] ([[User talk:Ironhold|talk]]) 16:46, 25 February 2015 (EST)

== WWOD image ==

Any chance you could replace [[:File:RID2015-BumblebeecontactsOptimus.jpg]] with a better-quality 16:9 image? Its mismatch with the other images on the page is really bugging me. [[User:Saix|Saix]] ([[User talk:Saix|talk]]) 04:42, 6 May 2015 (EDT)
:Sorted! --[[User:Abates|abates]] ([[User talk:Abates|talk]]) 04:53, 6 May 2015 (EDT)
::Thank you! [[User:Saix|Saix]] ([[User talk:Saix|talk]]) 04:57, 6 May 2015 (EDT)
Can you do the same for [[:File:RID-bumblebeeholdsdebris.jpg]]? [[User:Saix|Saix]] ([[User talk:Saix|talk]]) 02:05, 2 June 2015 (EDT)
:I've been meaning to start a discussion about replacing that as a main image, actually. Typically our main images are either something notable about the episode, or a particularly funny moment, and that image seems like neither to me. I need to find a better suggestion first though! Just haven't gotten around to looking. --[[User:Abates|abates]] ([[User talk:Abates|talk]]) 02:47, 2 June 2015 (EDT)

== TFU Weapons ==

Hello Abates. Sorry to bother you, but I saw that you fixed the [[Badlands Saws]] page when I noted it was missing some info. After I found that, I double-checked the rest of the TFU weapons and found that the Badlands Saws were also missing the "tip quote" most of the other pages had. On top of that, the pages for the [[Assail Laser Rifle]], [[Atomic Axe]], [[Galactic Axe]], [[Lambda Pulse Blaster]], [[Maxima Missile Launcher]], [[Positron Shotgun]], [[Solo SMGs]], and [[Vice Heavy Grenade Launcher]] are all missing their tip quotes AND their info underneath their images. I had made a note of it on the Badlands Saws talk page, but it's been a few days since I posted it and it hasn't changed and I unfortunately cannot make the changes myself. "[[User:SoundJack426|SoundJack426]] ([[User talk:SoundJack426|talk]]) 10:14, 28 December 2015 (EST)"
:Hey, it's not too difficult to find the info. If you go to the page of the owner of the weapon, it'll have a link to their profile page in the references section. Though the Transformers Universe site no longer exists, you can go to [http://archive.org/web/ the Internet Archive] and put the URL in to see what it looked like when it was operational. E.G. this is Doubletake's profile page: [http://web.archive.org/web/20141222061650/https://www.transformersuniverse.com/warriors/doubletake]. --[[User:Abates|abates]] ([[User talk:Abates|talk]]) 15:01, 28 December 2015 (EST)
::Ok! Thank you very much for showing me that! I'll take care of those other pages now. "[[User:SoundJack426|SoundJack426]] ([[User talk:SoundJack426|talk]]) 17:30, 28 December 2015 (EST)"

== "Fleshy" versus "Fleshie" ==

I saw that you spelled the word "F-L-E-S-H-I-E" [[:File:PrimeVsZombies Fleshie Zombie.jpg|here]]. Is this an acceptable spelling of the word in your reigon? I haven't been able to find anything suggesting that this is the case in my Google searches, but I thought I'd double check before dismissing your spelling as "incorrect". -[[User:Foffy the Sheep|Foffy the Sheep]] ([[User talk:Foffy the Sheep|talk]]) 16:16, 19 January 2016 (EST)
:Ordinarily it should be "fleshy," but "fleshie" may be how the game spells it. -- [[User:Dark T Zeratul|Dark T Zeratul]] ([[User talk:Dark T Zeratul|talk]]) 16:45, 19 January 2016 (EST)
::Fleshie as in a zombie made from a [http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Special:Search?search=fleshie&go=Go fleshie], not a zombie which is fleshy. It's not a term that is used in the game, as far as I recall. --[[User:Abates|abates]] ([[User talk:Abates|talk]]) 16:50, 19 January 2016 (EST)
:::Ooooooohhhhhh. In that case, it should stay the way it is. Glad I checked. Cheers! -[[User:Foffy the Sheep|Foffy the Sheep]] ([[User talk:Foffy the Sheep|talk]]) 17:04, 19 January 2016 (EST)

== Redirect to delete ==

"Conspicuously-unnamed senator", since it's protected and I can't tag it to be deleted. [[User:Saix|Saix]] ([[User talk:Saix|talk]]) 16:50, 22 January 2016 (EST)

== Tarantulas ==

Sorry about that. In my excitement I thought his minimal involvement in the two released issues was sufficient for that to go in the intro section. [[User:S.H.I.E.L.D. Agent 47|S.H.I.E.L.D. Agent 47]] ([[User talk:S.H.I.E.L.D. Agent 47|talk]]) 16:58, 25 January 2016 (EST)
:Erring on the safe side is usually best where spoilers are concerned, and it's best to wait until the whole issue comes out before adding info from it anyway. I mean it's unlikely, but on the pages we haven't seen, he might go "HAHAHA! Only kidding, I'm actually Sideways." --[[User:Abates|abates]] ([[User talk:Abates|talk]]) 19:36, 25 January 2016 (EST)

==Page histories to be merged==
I think [[Noble (BM)]] has missing history under "Noble/Savage"? [[User:Saix|Saix]] ([[User talk:Saix|talk]]) 15:44, 11 February 2016 (EST)
:Yep, done! --[[User:Abates|abates]] ([[User talk:Abates|talk]]) 16:53, 11 February 2016 (EST)

==Upload Images==

== Episode Template ==

I'm interested in replicating the code used for the "prev" and "next" buttons on other wikis, if that's okay. It looks like the button is handled as a "tti_buttonlink" class, which means I don't know where the code for it is held. Could you help me figure that out?[[User:KrytenKoro|KrytenKoro]] ([[User talk:KrytenKoro|talk]]) 14:02, 2 May 2016 (EDT)
:Hey! It's about halfway down [[User:Derik/Common tmp.css|this page]]. --[[User:Abates|abates]] ([[User talk:Abates|talk]]) 16:23, 2 May 2016 (EDT)
