Prime writers

I hope I'm not bothering but, who is going to write the new episodes in TFP? Joybells 09:57, 15 October 2012 (EDT)Joybells

In response to your question, we only find out the writers for specific epiodes of Transformers Prime once the episodes air, so there's no way of predicting upcoming writers. Jalaguy 12:55, 15 October 2012 (EDT) Duplicated from User talk: Joybells

Thanks for helping me with that question though. I'll just wait.Joybells 23:27, 15 October 2012 (EDT)Joybells

Constructicon shovel

Hi, welcome to TFWiki. Whilst your enthusiasm is appreciated, step by step transformation images isn't something we do, not least because it'd clutter up pages. Additonally, when uploading images, please use JPEGs instead of PNGs, as they take up less space.Jalaguy 12:44, 8 December 2012 (EST) Duplicated from User talk: Constructifan

I understand, but I made more images of the Constructicon shovel from TF2 ROTF and I planned to upload them to that page.--Constructifan 12:48, 8 December 2012 (EST)

Ok, I'll try my best. :)--Constructifan 12:49, 8 December 2012 (EST)

Now what? I just started adding jpg images and you go ahead and take them off. (sigh) Why?--Constructifan 13:49, 8 December 2012 (EST)

What I said about the wiki not doing anything like step-by-step transformations still stands. With the images, I meant for future reference. Jalaguy 14:14, 8 December 2012 (EST)

Predacon bird

Do you know anything of the "Predacon bird"? Where can I find a picture of it?Transfan 1992 19:10, 11 December 2012 (EST)

Beyond advising searching the internet for the Car Robot episode in question, I'm afraid I can't help. Sorry. Jalaguy 19:36, 11 December 2012 (EST)

Maintenance

Hey, if they're a new user who's spamming right away, feel free to block them and delete all of their content. We can always revert if it was a mistake, and the rest of us play a zero-tolerance game with the spammers. Thanks for your help!--McFly 15:48, 18 January 2013 (EST)

I can blank their spam pages, sure, but I can't block them, don't have sysops... Jalaguy 15:53, 18 January 2013 (EST)

Well then, keep it up! Your efforts keep this wiki clean! Thank you!--McFly 16:43, 18 January 2013 (EST)

Ghosts of Yesterday

I did, I just didn't see any indication that disagreement had formed in the meantime. What did I miss?KrytenKoro 16:20, 28 May 2013 (EDT)

I wasn't around back then, but it seems wiki policy on article names has changed in the meantime. I vaaaaaguely recall there being a big 'add Transformers back into titles' initiative from a while back. Jalaguy 16:25, 28 May 2013 (EDT)

Thanks!KrytenKoro 16:31, 28 May 2013 (EDT)

Here and here. --Khajidha 16:59, 28 May 2013 (EDT)

Thanks

I know I uploaded an image with an unusual file name. I saw the picture and decided to save it on my computer. Then I realized that the name had numbers and I didn't change the it. My mistake. I'm sorry. Movie09 08:01, 29 May 2013 (EDT)

Edit summaries

Just to point out... "Ditto" is fine if you're looking at Recentchanges on the day the edit's made (and you don't have the "Enhanced" RC turned on), but look at the history of the individual page: http://tfwiki.net/mediawiki/index.php?title=Darksteel_(Prime)&action=history - SanityOrMadness 14:34, 19 July 2013 (EDT)

Good point, thanks. I'll keep it in mind in the future. Jalaguy 14:36, 19 July 2013 (EDT)

Meansor in Shockpoint

Right, I know the issue is set a couple AFTER Menasor's creation, however surely they still shouldn't have holograms of him because they left before he was made and so, assuming nobody contacted them, they should be oblivious to the happenings on earth. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Drift1998 (talk • contribs).

Well, there's no reason to assume that they weren't in contact with any of the Decepticons on Earth. And if making an assumption creates an error, then it probably isn't a correct assumption. Megatron's internal monologue in #7 even seems to indicate that he's aware of the Autobots allying themselves with humans, so there's that, too. Jalaguy 04:45, 13 October 2013 (EDT)

It's also a recent addition to continuity and possibly the product of an error, but things now suggest that Skywarp made it from Eath to the asteroid, so he could have brought that info with him too. - Chris McFeely 06:25, 13 October 2013 (EDT)

Tense

I noticed that while editing, and I did try to keep it in past tense. Apparently it wasn't quite enough.

-Toa 95 (talk)

Understandable

After editing the entire Beast Hunters and you editing it to chop a part of (the reception section), I read the file history and understand what you are going with, so thus perhaps one day when the figures are officially released then we'll talk about the reception proper (besides, I did it after analyzing the forms and other reviewers and thus coming to conclusion that it had to be done).

Go(toby070)bots.

Sorry

My apologies for not being a very productive member of this community lately, I guess I got a little carried away. Just wanted you to know. Thank you, though, because I, myself was beggining to consider how much I could have been contributing rather than goofing off. Also, I'm kind of new to the whole chat thing, so if I'm doing it wrong I apologize (again)-WaffleZ, 7:08, June 30, 2014

No worries, everyone's new at some point, and it's easy to get carried away having fun with captions. Happy editing! Jalaguy (talk) 14:23, 1 July 2014 (EDT)

Response

While I'll leave the discussion on what is proper article introduction for another day, and article should not have a "question and answer" sentence arrangement in them either.--8492nd (talk) 16:56, 18 July 2014 (EDT)

Sorry

Im just getting used to this I don't mean to hurt you or anything I just wanna express my ideas of what should be wrote sorry hope you respond. The caption's thing,NEVER AGAIN WITH THE GOOFY STUFF JUST beginning middle end plot details conclusion.P.S im just new here Jalaguy 19:48(BST),23/07/14

That's fine. Just remember that this TFwiki.net, not funnyTFcaptions.net. Writing funny captions is a bonus perk to make factual editing more entertaining, not an alternative to factual editing. Happy editing! Jalaguy (talk) 15:14, 23 July 2014 (EDT)

Double User Pic

Thank you for telling me that, I wanted to combine them into one photo but I don't how. Would you happen to know how to? --TheHappyTruckShunter (talk) 20:24, 12 August 2014 (EDT)

If you have access to Microsoft PowerPoint, a quick method is to open a new presentation, paste the two photos in and arrange them next to each other, select both images at once by holding CTRL and clicking them both, and then finally right-clicking them and choosing 'Save as picture'. Otherwise, you can use a basic image editor like MS Paint - drag the corner handle to make the white image area really big, paste in the photos and arrange them, and then drag the image area smaller again to fit around them before saving. Jalaguy (talk) 03:47, 13 August 2014 (EDT)

Thank you so much! Yes, I do have access to Microsoft PowerPoint, and I tried your advice. It worked! Thank You.

P.S: Remember my edits on "Dinobot (AOE)"? I have the links of the Slash, Slog, and Snarl's concept art. I'll post them in about half an hour or two. --TheHappyTruckShunter (talk) 20:09, 13 August 2014 (EDT)

Camrips

Thanks for clarifying the issue of camrips. However, when I checked up on the images guidelines it seems a bit unclear about cam rips. Should a statement about these cam rips be added? Thanks. Also this applies even for imageless characters, right? Optimus Prime (Convoy) (talk) 08:59, 27 August 2014 (EDT)

Yeah, the wiki avoids anything illegal (camrips, stolen pre-release toy samples, etc.) regardless of circumstances. I'll update the image policy a little for clarification. Jalaguy (talk) 09:15, 27 August 2014 (EDT)

Thanks a lot! Optimus Prime (Convoy) (talk) 09:27, 27 August 2014 (EDT)

Help please?

Can you use your mod powers to fix StarWars Jedi's whole mess of movements? I can't work them.

Also Walky said no to the Universe thing, so could you move it back to (Universe 2008)? I can't get it working. Escargon (talk) 08:47, 30 August 2014 (EDT)

SWJ's stuff is sorted, but what specific articles are we talking about with regards to (Universe 2008)? Jalaguy (talk) 08:56, 30 August 2014 (EDT)

He means the Universe Mini-Con, but that's already at a page that actually takes account of Willis's... objection. The discussion was with respect to further moves. - SanityOrMadness (talk) 08:59, 30 August 2014 (EDT)

It's she. Escargon (talk) 09:00, 30 August 2014 (EDT)

Plus Walky basically owns this site, so if he says we're not doing it, we're not doing it. Escargon (talk) 09:04, 30 August 2014 (EDT)

Micro Fun-Pack comics.

Do you have all of these? I saw you did Spotlight: Shockwave's, and wondered. Escargon (talk) 17:52, 30 August 2014 (EDT)

Drift is actually the only one I own, but the back of the poster shows you the stickers, etc. for all the other packs. The only stuff I don't know is the covers in the back of the Optimus and 'Bee books (I found them out for Grimlock by asking around). Jalaguy (talk) 17:58, 30 August 2014 (EDT)

Question on Yuki Ohshima

I'm sorry if this was already declared somewhere and I didn't see it, but why can't pervert be used on the page? Is that too snarky? I would think considering the content of Kiss Players that would be acceptable.1MegaMan10 (talk) 12:48, 1 September 2014 (EDT)

Firstly, it's possible to overdo it - the wiki's already swimming in 'lololol Kiss Players is peverted' jokes - and secondly, we ask that new users spend time making factual edits before adding captions/humour, to avoid this place becoming TFjokes.net rather than TFwiki.net. Thanks! Jalaguy (talk) 13:07, 1 September 2014 (EDT)

Okay, I understand. I really just signed up to revert to that old joke I saw years ago. If it's unacceptable, eh whatevs. I really don't do a good job adding anything ever, so I'll just lurk. Thanks for the work you put into this fantastic wiki.1MegaMan10 (talk) 13:29, 1 September 2014 (EDT)

On an unrelated note. Is there a way to change my username/delete my account?1MegaMan10 (talk) 14:29, 1 September 2014 (EDT)

I'm afraid I'm not very clued up on the technical end of wiki things. You might try asking one of the other admins, like User:Abates. Jalaguy (talk) 15:20, 1 September 2014 (EDT)

Thanks

Thanks for fixing the image I added :) Combaticons4ever (talk) 08:56, 9 September 2014 (EDT)

No problem! In future, if you're having trouble wrapping your head around image templates (I don't blame you!), an easy solution is to find an image from a similar source, (another issue of MTMTE, in this case), copy the code from there, and then go through and change the little details like issue number, title, etc. Jalaguy (talk) 09:02, 9 September 2014 (EDT)

Termination Diamond?

Do you have the Diamond edition of Termination? If so, is there any additional information in Thundercracker's (or anybody else') bio that can be added to the page? Escargon (talk) 19:38, 3 October 2014 (EDT)

Yeah, there's some worthwhile tidbits in the bios. I'll try and update articles accordingly if I get time this weekend. Jalaguy (talk) 19:44, 3 October 2014 (EDT)

attention deflector

"Welcome (belatedly) to the wiki! You wound up redirecting your attention deflector article to the Main Page somehow, so I fixed it for you. Jalaguy (talk) 08:19, 11 October 2014 (EDT)"

Thanks for the welcome. However the redirect was entirely intentional. It's an attention deflector, it's meant to divert your attention away from the page! SleepIsTheBrotherOfDeath (talk) 08:54, 11 October 2014 (EDT)

Ah, okay, I see, but the redirect prevents you from actually reading the page without going in to edit it, so it's not really feasible. Jalaguy (talk) 10:15, 11 October 2014 (EDT)

Cheetos

Cheetos is doing a cross-promotion with Age of Extinction in Russia, apparently. The web site has a brief two-page comic on it. --abates (talk) 06:14, 16 October 2014 (EDT)
