Welcome

Hi, welcome to Skylanders Wiki! Thanks for your edit to the User:Aura24 page.

Please leave a message on my talk page if I can help with anything! -- Leland turbo (Talk) 05:53, December 12, 2011

Skylanders/Spyro Wiki content

So these edits you made today to separate the two wikis... Where might you be getting the content you are using? For that matter, where did the "original" Spyro wiki content come from? Taking out the non-Skylanders Spyro series references made at least a small bit of sense, but I feel it would have been better to edit them to reference the Spyro wiki and/or cite the source. What I didn't care for was the dumbing down of the Zap page. Not all of us here are little children tinkering with our very first website and all the blunders that come with that. The Zap biography wording, as it was displayed on this site, was not created by the folks at the Spyro wiki. Simply check your sources before you assume they are incorrect, play nice, and all will be well in wikia-land. Regardless of your possibly good-natured intent, your actions became the equivalent of vandalism. (P.S. This "you guys" and "our wiki" nonsense is silly. You yourself are now making changes at both sites, which kinda dissolves the distinction a bit.) -- GhostMaple 18:26, December 14, 2011 (UTC)

Citing the source is okay. The biography of Zap on the Spyro Wiki was simply a mixture between Zap's old bio, and the new bio Activision revealed some time ago that I decided to put together, way before the members here copied and pasted from there to here. There's nothing wrong with adding Zap's original biography here. -- Aura24 18:49, December 14, 2011 (UTC)

I guess the reason I was a bit miffed is that the Biography section on the page was word for word the Skylanders.com text, though uncited. Thanks for changing it back (and beating me to the punch). Cheers. -- GhostMaple 19:11, December 14, 2011 (UTC)

Actually Zap's bio on the page is the newer version Activision recently posted and the official Skylanders site has, not our wiki's version. -- Aura24 19:19, December 14, 2011 (UTC)

Yes, that's what I mean. Ah, I see I was a bit ambiguous there. I mean that the original text that was there on the Skylanders wiki's Zap page prior to today's changes was from the newer Skylanders.com website info and not from your enhanced version hosted at the Spyro wiki. All's well. -- GhostMaple 19:32, December 14, 2011 (UTC)

Vandalism

Your vandalising pages by making them say stup page please stop! Leland turbo 05:26, December 17, 2011 (UTC)

What are you talking about? I'm not vandalizing any pages. -- Aura24 05:32, December 17, 2011 (UTC)

Stating that pages are a stuB is common wiki language for saying they're incomplete and need further editing. How on earth did you ever manage to become an admin? ThierryTNG 08:32, December 17, 2011 (UTC)

Trellar added him because he asked to be admin. ...But obviously he doesn't know about Stubs... -- Aura24 08:37, December 17, 2011 (UTC)

I see. Well, if you have any questions Leland, feel free to ask. ThierryTNG 08:40, December 17, 2011 (UTC)

Well my first question is how do you add your photo next to your signature becuase I see your Bash photo right next to your name whenever you write down your signature. Leland turbo 17:29, December 17, 2011 (UTC)

If you click on the arrow next to your username in the top right corner, you will see a link called My Preferences. If you click on that, you can set a custom signature. In that signature, you can add an image link in the same way as you can do on a wiki page. After you've done that, you can click on it to upload a picture to use as icon. ThierryTNG 21:52, December 17, 2011 (UTC)

I tried it but i'm still having trouble am I supposed to erase my name when I put the link and can you leave an example showing what the link would look like. Leland turbo C:\Documents and Settings\administrator\Desktop\2022650-flynn_icon.png 02:27, December 18, 2011 (UTC)

You have to link to an image uploaded on the wiki, not on your own pc. An example would be: [[Image:LelandSignatureIcon.jpg|20px]]. After that, if you place your signature somewhere, you will instead get a red link. Click on that and upload your signature image, and you're done. ThierryTNG 08:09, December 18, 2011 (UTC)

I still don't get it. Andres 22:11, December 18, 2011 (UTC)

Well, to put it plainly then: anything you put in your signature works the exact same way as it would when you use source code on a page. If you don't know how to do that, then I'm afraid you cannot add images to your signature. ThierryTNG 09:33, December 23, 2011 (UTC)

Admin

Hi Aura!

I think you'd be an excellent admin! You just need to make sure you fulfill the Adoption Guidelines over here: http://community.wikia.com/wiki/Community_Central:Adoption_requests

The only thing I really think you need is to show you have support from the community since there are a few active members here. Start a blog post or a forum thread stating that you wish to be admin and ask if anyone has any objections. Once active members have chimed in, please link me to it and I'd be more than happy to grant you admin rights (provided the community thinks you'd make a good candidate).

Good luck and happy editing! :) ----Trellar http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb32675/wikia/images/e/e9/WikiaStaff.png (help forum | blog) 17:50, January 3, 2012 (UTC)

Eek, more spam attacks! Since there wasn't any outcry against you taking over as Admin, I've promoted you. Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns as I'd be more than willing to help out. ----Trellar http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb32675/wikia/images/e/e9/WikiaStaff.png (help forum | blog) 17:33, January 4, 2012 (UTC)

After reading through some of the discussions, I see why there are locks on pages. Keep up the good work. Semperrideo 16:18, January 20, 2012 (UTC)

Page Titles

Hey, while you're running through pages, if you happen to hit any more of the existing level/chapter pages, would you mind fixing them so they don't have those awful quotes in the name and text? GhostMaple 19:53, January 4, 2012 (UTC)

Speed Editing

I'm pretty impressed on how you're editing so many pages in a really fast time, just how do you do it??? Leland turbo 23:32, January 4, 2012 (UTC)

I'm justing adding a few adjustments, which doesn't take too much time for me with the templates and information. -- Aura24 23:34, January 4, 2012 (UTC

What type of adjustments? Leland turbo 23:37, January 4, 2012 (UTC)

Adding the character boxes and putting the pages as article stubs so more information can be added by other members who have knowledge about Skylanders. -- Aura24 23:38, January 4, 2012 (UTC)

How do you put pages as article stubs? Leland turbo 23:42, January 4, 2012 (UTC)

By putting Stub and surround it using curly brackets together. And put them at the very bottom of the pages. -- Aura24 23:43, January 4, 2012 (UTC)

Core Of Light

The spelling is Core Of Light and even if it isn't everything on this wiki MUST '''''BE CAPITALIZED. Leland turbo 00:56, January 5, 2012 (UTC)

You're sounding crazy. That's not how the characters in Skylanders spelled the name 'Core of Light'. -- Aura24 01:01, January 5, 2012 (UTC)

I don't have the game you idiot, so I didn't know that! Leland turbo 01:20, January 5, 2012 (UTC)

You're acting very trollish, Leland. Anymore of this behavior and I may have to block you from this wiki for a while until you calm down. -- Aura24 01:22, January 5, 2012 (UTC)

Do not block me i'm very close to getting the 14 days on the wiki badge and I need it if i'm ever gonna get 840 achivement points. Leland turbo 01:26, January 5, 2012 (UTC)

Well then keep your act together. -- Aura24 21:02, January 5, 2012 (UTC)

Undead

Thnx for editing Malefor but can you please edit Vathek or whatever he's called and I still can't believe your on the website at this time and are you obsessed with skylanders or something? Leland turbo 04:04, January 5, 2012 (UTC)

Cynder

I saw that you added a photo of cynder's toy in the box and I need to no where they sell this because if it's in a box they have to be selling it. Leland turbo 00:13, January 6, 2012 (UTC)

Hey man, you don't have to believe me, but just cool it, I thought your picture was cool, that's all! Nothing more, nothing less.

There Seems To Be A Problem

Please go to the skylanders wiki chat so we can talk about the problem A.S.A.P. Leland turbo 00:42, January 10, 2012 (UTC)

The only problem you have is the incorrect spelling of Empire of Ice. Sorry, Leland, but you left me no choice that I had to protect the page from both users and Wiki Contributors. It's all your fault. -- Aura24 04:29, January 10, 2012 (UTC)

As I said on the page, show proof that you are correct and be done with it. I mean that for both of you. (Hint: It's not hard.) Accusations and name-calling are not what we are here for. This "You're wrong" "No you're wrong" "Nuh-uh" nonsense is petty and non-constructive at best. 199.73.167.129 20:25, January 10, 2012 (UTC)

The proof is already on the page of Empire of Ice, Maple. In the gallery, a screenshot shows Empire of Ice in the correct spelling format if you hadn't looked already. -- Aura24 21:18, January 10, 2012 (UTC)

Both for $20. Can u email me thru the Craigslist site? It'll be easier to communicate that way. :)

Hello Aura24 you have done a great job with this wiki can I also become an admin please i am ranked third on this wiki after just 6 days on the wiki please make me an admin thanks

STOP SOPA NOW!!!

With your help we can all defeat the Stop Online Piracy Act!!! Leland turbo 02:31, January 19, 2012 (UTC)

Quick Note :)

Aura - My apologies, I added the category by accident and didn't have enough reception to change it. On another note, can you unlock the Three Character Packs page so i can add photos to it? I know i can just put them in the general photo bin, but I'd like to add them myself. I'm also very interested in becoming an Admin. I've added many pages already and have in-depth first hand experience with the game. Let me know! :) - 1Pdawan

Off Topic Images?

I have to politely disagree with the decision not to include the Winged Sapphires image on Persephone's page. If that page really is about her, it should include things like information about her AND her shop. The Sapphires are a big part of that. And on a page with little information as it is, I think adding certain pictures is appropriate. From that point, the reader can click on a link for them, which will give a more detailed description. - 1Pdawan

But are Winged Sapphires related to Persephone? It makes me wonder if you're a first timer on the wikia. -- Aura24 01:35, January 20, 2012 (UTC)

Yes. When she first tells the player about the Sapphires, she refers to them as MY sapphires, meaning hers. I'd say that's related to her. - 1Pdawan
