Caretaker

Please note that you are not the caretaker of this wiki and never were. We currently have a staff system, which includes the two people who this site Thai420 and Gboyers/Xenon. You can view that staff structure here. Gboyers reverted your claim on your talk page because it was false, so please do not revert back to your edit. A-Dust 12:37, 10 March 2008 (UTC)

Fan Fiction

Hi. Please can you ensure that any Fan Fiction and non-GTA related information is kept inside your User space. For example User:Chip2007/Grand Theft Auto Deliverance. Thanks - Gboyers (?) 18:23, 14 March 2008 (UTC)

Note

We appreciate you contributing to this wiki, but please could you constrain your edits to encyclopaedic content? If you have any fan fiction, or if you want to create different versions of existing pages (eg timelines), please create them inside your user space. For example, User:Chip2007/Pagename.

As for userboxes, use {{userbox:age|36}} for your age, and {{userbox|id=Left|info=Right}} for any single-use-only infoboxes. Only create a new template when lots of other people will be using it, and where it is impossible to centralise it into an adaptable template (like those two I just linked to).

You do not need to create a category for talk pages. They are visible at Special:Allpages/Talk:. Also, please remember that Category has an E in it. Please try to fit into this wiki, and if you do not know how to do something, please ask - Gboyers (?) 18:11, 9 April 2008 (UTC)

You don't need to edit your user page every time you edit/create a page on the wiki. Everything you do is recorded on your user contributions at Special:Contributions/Chip2007 - and if you turn your profile into a Social Profile (just press the button) then your most recent edits show up on your page - Gboyers (?) 22:17, 16 April 2008 (UTC)

Patroller Request

Hi. Thanks for asking to become a Patroller on Grand Theft Wiki. However, the correct method to apply is shown at Grand Theft Wiki:Promotion. The formal procedure involves a peer review process. Gboyers (?) 21:52, 11 April 2008 (UTC)

Staff Templates

To answer the question on your user page, please do not use the staff templates. Not only are you not a member of the current staff, but you have never been on the staff (including the GTA Wikia), so why would you use the staff templates? A-Dust 22:38, 18 April 2008 (UTC)

First, please continue this dicussion on either my talk page or on this page, not on your own userpage. Secondly, you have, as stated above, never been a caretaker here or on the GTA Wikia. Myself and Chief of Staff were the staff members who maintained the site until its merger with Grand Theft Wiki. A-Dust 23:22, 18 April 2008 (UTC)

1603 Article

There was no attempt on your part to redirect the article to your userpage. The article was deleted earlier today for being worthless, as there is nothing from Rockstar Games that even suggests that the articles content is true. Please do not recreate the article. If you do, it will de deleted again. A-Dust 23:11, 24 April 2008 (UTC)

Issues with main page edits

Hi, Chip. First, let me start by saying I really appreciate your monitoring and fixing problems you see on the main page. It's a real support to everyone to have someone looking out! The issue you seem to be having is with some edits made by GuildKnight on the main page. Just to let you know, she is one of our best editors, and I'm sure her intentions were altruistic. I can furthermore absolutely guarantee that her edits were not intended as vandalism, as she is also a SysOp on this wiki. In the future, such issues should really be dealt with by talking to the editor whose edits you are concerned with before assuming vandalism. One of our tenets is to assume good faith of our fellow editors, and to discuss things before action is taken. It really makes for a more smoothly running wiki if we all start from the standpoint of assuming someone is not trying to cause a disruption.

I will talk to GuildKnight about this, but you really should discuss this with her, as I can assure you she is a reasonable and intelligent person. Eganio^Talk 03:16, 15 June 2008 (UTC)

Hi again. Thanks for taking the time to iron this issue out with GuildKnight. It's always best when people get along and communicate with each other! ;-) Eganio^Talk 21:06, 16 June 2008 (UTC)

Main Page

Regarding your problem report on the Main Page [#11339], could you please take a screenshot and upload it so we can identify the problem. I would appreciate it if you didn't edit the page unless you know exactly how to fix the problem. Also, it would be good if you used the "Show Preview" button to examine your edits before saving them. That way you can see if it works or not, and it stops people editing and breaking pages unneccessarily. Gboyers ^talk 00:52, 29 June 2008 (UTC)
