| What does he actually DO? And what's he like? --[[User:-Blackout-|-Blackout-]] 14:42, 23 July 2009 (EDT)
| |
| :He's a medic. One who's implied to be competent, unlike Ratchet, but he doesn't fix people for free. Rodimus mentions him near the end of the story. --[[User:Jeysie|Jeysie]] 14:53, 23 July 2009 (EDT)

| <s>It doesn't work. --[[User:-Blackout-|-Blackout-]] 10:10, 28 July 2009 (EDT)</s><br />
| | Stumbled upon the Plush Lizard entry while looking over [[Hasbro Transformers Collectors' Club issue 24]]. I see there are five issues of "Plush Lizard", but none of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Winslow The Winslow]. |

| == Since you're on a SG GoBox kick ==
| | Of the five listing [[plush lizard]], the one on [[Rubber Ducky]] ties it to [[Ego]]... but from Ego's page, one has to go to [[I, Lowtech]] to find out about said plush... and [http://tfwiki.net/wiki/I%2C_Lowtech#Real-world_references all the gory details]. |
| I've uploaded [[:Image:GoBox SG template.psd|the template]] I used to do the two SG GoBoxes I uploaded waaay back. I didn't use it for Ravage because it would have ruined the joke, but thought you might find the file useful.--[[User:Rosicrucian|Rosicrucian]][[User Talk:Rosicrucian|<sup>Talk</sup>]] 13:32, 2 August 2009 (EDT)

| == SG Drill Powerdasher ==
| | On an unrelated note, do User names expire? Because I could have sworn I had one on... one... of these TFwiki pages. |
| Did you just copy and paste most of the SG Skyfall page to make the SG Drill Powerdasher page? Because the articles are almost identical, save for the caption and the trivia section (or the lack of thereof). --[[User:-Blackout-|-Blackout-]] 12:02, 5 August 2009 (EDT)
| | :We've been known to catalog all sorts of minor things, even if they're blatantly just references. So... while it is indeed a silly reference, there's no particular reason not to link to and create a page here on this wiki, with a note about said reference at the bottom. |
| :Yeah, pretty much. Didn't see much of a point in spending time trying to write up something unique when they both have the exact same role in their cameo anyway, so I cheated. --[[User:Jeysie|Jeysie]] 12:23, 5 August 2009 (EDT)
| | :As for usernames, they don't expire that I know of... if you can remember your username and password, you should be able to log in. If you can't, I'd try contacting one of the admins to see if they can help. (Possibly [[User:abates|abates]], he's one of the more tech-saavy ones.) --[[User:Jeysie|Jeysie]] 16:09, 6 July 2010 (EDT) |

| ==Disambig sandbox==
| |
| Do you mind if I re-create [http://miscfile.alienharmony.com/transformers/franchise-ordering.htm this sandbox] and its Talk page? I think it's pretty valuable information, and clearly still relevant. - [[User:Jackpot|Jackpot]] 00:43, 6 August 2009 (EDT)
| |
| :Knock yourself out... although now that we have subpages enabled on other namespaces, we could probably put it at "Help:Disambiguation/Franchises" or something... --[[User:Jeysie|Jeysie]] 10:40, 6 August 2009 (EDT)
| |
| ::Maybe. I'm not sure on how the whole subpage etiquette works, so I'm just putting the sandbox back where it started from for now. - [[User:Jackpot|Jackpot]] 03:18, 8 August 2009 (EDT)

| == Scaleface = mignash ==
| |
| Yeah, turns out Scaleface on TFW2005 is the same person as mignash. I wasn't sure, but the "custom Shattered Glass bios" he posted on the Allspark are exactly the same as the ones he posted in a similar topic in TFW2005.

| Mystery solved. *takes off Nightbeat hat* --[[User:-Blackout-|-Blackout-]] 06:10, 9 August 2009 (EDT)
| |
| :I had thought it might be based on the birthday being the same, but good to know for sure. *mutters something about being a nice sane person who uses the same or slightly similar nick everywhere...* --[[User:Jeysie|Jeysie]] 09:36, 9 August 2009 (EDT)

| == SG Leader-1 ==
| |
| | |
| I know you're probably getting tired of me putting messages on your talk pages titled "SG (insert character here)", but why did you turn SG Leader-1 into a redirect?
| |
| | |
| | |
| Also, I know you probably got an edit conflict when you did that; that was me trying to create an article. --[[User:-Blackout-|-Blackout-]] 14:14, 10 August 2009 (EDT)
| |
| :Because there's zero to actually write about him. With folks like Fixit and Dead End we at least have ''some'' info to put, even if it's just a tiny factoid. And Blitzwing will get written up whenever the next text story comes out. But the SG GoBots other than Crasher are just random scenery. They're basically just generics. (And yes I realize we have pages for folks like Krok and Overlord, but there actually was discussion of making just a single "minor characters article" and turning those pages into redirects too.) | |
| :And to answer your other question... that list is basically a to-do list to help me get the SG stuff up-to-date with whatever fiction is already out. Blitzwing at least has a picture to give him a not-completely-useless stub, but Thunderwing doesn't have ''anything''. So, I'll deal with it whenever that text story comes out. --[[User:Jeysie|Jeysie]] 17:07, 10 August 2009 (EDT)
| |
| ::We actually had a "minor Shattered Glass characters article", but it was nuked because the only character in it was (oh the irony) Leader-1. --[[User:-Blackout-|-Blackout-]] 13:29, 12 August 2009 (EDT)
| |
| :::Well, if someone wanted to recreate it with the various background cameos like Quake & Krok & whatnot—basically anyone who gets a no-line cameo or a namedrop with no useful info (like Chromedome or Metroplex)—with the individual name articles as categorized redirects, I'd be all in favor of that. But I was just kind of sitting there trying to think of how to write up a new article for Leader-1 and realizing there's really literally nothing to say about him. --[[User:Jeysie|Jeysie]] 13:38, 12 August 2009 (EDT)

| == Hey you ==
| |
| Hoy. You seem to have your ducks in a row. Would you be interested in developing a template-insert menu for file upload? There's an itty-bitty one that loads up now if you've got Kired Tools (the bit using the Chapters template) but it's ultimately constrained by its need for adhere to wiki-friendly text. If the HTML were written directly... it could be a LOT more functional. -[[User:Derik|Derik]] 05:20, 19 September 2009 (EDT)
| |
| :So, a pure-HTML menu of image template links? I think I can probably figure something out. Let me pick at it, and I'll drop what I come up with on your user page. --[[User:Jeysie|Jeysie]] 06:18, 19 September 2009 (EDT)
| |
| ::Ja ja, I was thinking of a framework to make development go faster though... do you happen to have access to a web server? -[[User:Derik|Derik]] 06:50, 19 September 2009 (EDT) | |
| :::Er, well, I have personal webspace with PHP & mySQL abilities, but no full access to a server. (I don't know anything more "advanced" than HTML and CSS, though.)
| |
| :::What sort of framework did you need, though? The menu in this case would likely just be a plain ol' list with CSS enhancements, really. --[[User:Jeysie|Jeysie]] 06:55, 19 September 2009 (EDT)
| |
| ::::Here... unrar [http://emopanda.com/tmp/kired/js_mash.rar this], and throw both files on your server somewhere, then add the following to [[Special:Mypage/monacobook.js|your .js file]].
| |
| <pre>document.write('<' + 'script language="javascript" type="text/javascript" src="');
| |
| document.write('http://www.yourdomain.com/dirname/jeysie_script.php');
| |
| document.write('"></' + 'script' + '>');</pre>
| |
| ::::Now any changes you make to the <tt>jeysie_uploadmenu.html</tt> file on your server will show up in the upload menu here. You can take advantage of the mediawiki javascript functions, testing is much easier, and (by adding the same code to my .js file) I can see your changes live.
| |
| ::::* You load the PHP file off your own server as if it was a .js file.
| |
| ::::* The PHP file loads the .html, runs it through a filter that escapes everything and , then outputs a single line of javascript code saving this enormous string it as the javascript variable "kt_jeysie_uploadMenu".
| |
| ::::* The KiredTools scripts are already looking for this variable and (if it's set) will append it at the top of a an upload page.
| |
| ::::* So you can edit the .html on your server without cluttering recentChanges, but the changes will show up live here, alongside all the existing scripts, etc.
| |
| ::::It saves having to think about all that nasty escaping, just have PHP do it! (Anyway, *I* think it's much faster to develop this way.) -[[User:Derik|Derik]] 14:54, 19 September 2009 (EDT)
| |
| :::::Er, well... like I said, the HTML itself will be nothing more than a plain old list. All the real functionality will be done in the CSS file and possibly in a Behavior file to get IE6 to work. That sort of thing is pretty much overkill when editing the list itself will consist of nothing more than sticking in extra LIs.
| |
| :::::Heck, technically you could probably make it an editable plain old wiki page, as you could just stick regular list wikicode in a DIV with a class for CSS purposes. Then just embed that page. --[[User:Jeysie|Jeysie]] 15:35, 19 September 2009 (EDT)
| |
| ::::::The one there is ''already'' editable... it loads from [[User:Derik/Sandbox10]]. But that limits you to the kind of markup mediawiki allows. -[[User:Derik|Derik]] 16:46, 19 September 2009 (EDT)

| == Blitzwing Bop ==
| |
| Is Blitzwing Bop out already? --[[User:-Blackout-|-Blackout-]] 01:34, 6 October 2009 (EDT)
| |
| :Nope. "When is Blitzwing Bop coming out?" has been the question du jour on the TFCC forums for a while now. :3 Only Sipher and Trent know the answer to that one... --[[User:Jeysie|Jeysie]] 01:40, 6 October 2009 (EDT)
| |
| ::Then what's with Mirage magically appearing on the Shattered Glass toyline and repurposing pages, and Camshaft getting a toy? --[[User:-Blackout-|-Blackout-]] 01:41, 6 October 2009 (EDT)
| |
| :::The latest TFCC issue. Mirage shows up in ''Around Cybertron'', while Camshaft shows up in ''Reunification'': Part 5. (I haven't gotten my own issue yet, so I dunno much details other than that.) --[[User:Jeysie|Jeysie]] 01:46, 6 October 2009 (EDT)
| |
| ::::Once again I note that TFCC magazine material has a 30-day grace period before we can address its contents in our wiki. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 01:52, 6 October 2009 (EDT)
| |
| :::::Stating that a character exists, or their general personality/looks apparently doesn't seem to be a problem. When I made absolute bare-bones SG Terrorcon and Ratbat pages (unsure of how much was too much), people ''added'' information to them afterwards before the 30-days was up. And in this case I just ported over to related pages information that people had already added. So... don't look at ''me'' on this one, basically, if there ''is'' a problem. (Nor have I told Blackout anything sekrit here, as making Featured Characters lists for TFCC issue stories ahead of time hasn't been an issue either.) --[[User:Jeysie|Jeysie]] 02:09, 6 October 2009 (EDT)

| You do know that I'm the one who fed him to Grimlock, right? --[[User:-Blackout-|-Blackout-]] 06:09, 11 October 2009 (EDT)
| |
| :Of course. It was more of a general statement of people who have been fed to Grimlock for annoying things rather than me personally always doing it. I'm more than willing to have some helpers. (If [[User:Repowers|other folks can have pet annoying things]], I can have pet annoying things, I figure.) --[[User:Jeysie|Jeysie]] 06:21, 11 October 2009 (EDT)
| |
| ::Well, question answered, time to go back to spending my time reading the RC and going over stuff on old Wikipedia vandals. (No, really.) --[[User:-Blackout-|-Blackout-]] 06:30, 11 October 2009 (EDT)

| == SG Prime article update ==
| |
| I dare you to upload a pic of SG Prime flinging Warpath into Hound. We have to record that for posterity's sake. --[[User:-Blackout-|-Blackout-]] 14:52, 7 November 2009 (EST)
| |
| :Because of how close-up the "shot" is framed it's actually not hugely visually exciting, IMHO, but: http://miscfile.alienharmony.com/TakingOutRemotePatrolSix%20Reunification5.jpg --[[User:Jeysie|Jeysie]] 15:27, 7 November 2009 (EST)
