GTA Wiki Background
Hi! I'm bureaucrat of the Russian Grand Theft Wiki. I make edits on the English wiki just for the sake of interlanguage links. But every time when I open GTA Wiki, I pay attention to the background of your wiki. It doesn't look in the best way and it doesn't make your wiki better. I think It's good idea to search high-resolution picture of this background on the Internet. -- undefined 15:21, August 15, 2016 (UTC)

RE: GTA Wiki Background
I understand, the existence of different monitor sizes is a very big problem. And I solved this problem on Grand Theft Wiki: I added this code to the MediaWiki background script: background-size:100%;. But if you will add this code, you should search high-resolution picture of the background. undefined 20:55, August 15, 2016 (UTC)
 * I found big version of your background. Thanks to Photoshop you can delete logos.  undefined 21:15, August 15, 2016 (UTC)#

D / Trivia
You may have had reasons for reverting my edit on the D page, but as I said in the edit description, on the PC version of GTAV shooting or running over D after the cutscene where he is set free will fail the mission. I have tested that myself.

Maybe D can be killed on console versions, but defintely not on the PC version. So the 'fact' stated in trivia is not entirely right, and needs to be updated. Doppelblind (talk) 12:59, August 17, 2016 (UTC)
 * So we both agree D can't be killed at any point in this mission. I'm wondering why you just reverted my edit, you could have deleted the wrong statement, too. So I'm gonna delete it now, feel free to revert.

Regarding a page information discrepancy
Good day Tom, I have noticed a discrepancy between the pages for James Pedeaston and freejames.org: on the character article it is stated that Pedeaston was arrested in Bali on child molestation charges, but on the website it is stated that it was on drugs charges. I have not properly played Grand Theft Auto IV, so I am not certain as to the fact of the matter, so could you, if you know yourself, please correct the discrepancy? Thank you in advance.

Interactive Maps
Hello!

I am posting this message since you have quite a few real-world maps created using the Wikia Maps feature. As you may know, the Wikia Maps extension is no longer actively supported.

Recently real-world maps stopped displaying properly (example) and very soon we’ll be running a script to remove those from all article pages, and eventually delete the maps altogether from the database.

I have enabled the MediaWiki Maps extension on this community, which is more well-suited to create real world maps. You can read about how the extension works at Help:Maps and get started creating maps at Special:MapEditor.

Please let us know if you have questions about this Maps extension. Thanks! Ducksoup (talk) 20:20, August 29, 2016 (UTC)


 * -Sorry to butt in here. It sounds great that you have enabled the extension on MediaWiki, however as far as I am aware, we do not use real life maps. In fact, whenever I tried to create maps from images on the wiki (Grand Theft Auto maps), it simply didn't work, giving me numerous error messages (I am talking about 2 months ago), and this was literally 2 days before Wikia announced the maps are no longer supported - which was a shame in itself. With that said, I gave up on making maps. Also, I'm also very certain no maps appear on articles (images of maps do the job). I'm also tired of random users creating completely irrelevant maps and us Admins and Bureaucrats not receiving direct/clear notifications about the maps being created.


 * Thanks Monk Talk 20:29, August 29, 2016 (UTC)

To Do List
Hey Tom. Just wanted to know if you want to help me cleanup and update the To Do Lists. We could do with adding the GTA Online VIP and CEO Mission pages to the list, as they need to be created (according to the navbox).

Leeds/Arsenal
You timed that well. Five minutes to win it! We made it easy, the second that rocket left Xhaka's foot. I don't want Leeds in the next round, all due respect we'd kick your ass but I'd rather PL opposition so that we're not left with half the reserve team. I'd rather we'd not repeat that Sheffield Wednesday defeat. Probably won't mention Chelsea to Sam, always annoying to get comfortable and then throw it away. Leo68 (talk) 23:22, September 20, 2016 (UTC)

Guy's apparently been globally blocked, do you know anything about it? Leo68 (talk) 22:47, October 2, 2016 (UTC)

 * Ah, curses! I was somewhat afraid that, given the amount of enemies he seems to be making, Monk would end up having something like this happening. I sincerely hope for his sake that the matter is resolved swiftly. If Monk's "friend" really is lying about the matter, I am fairly confident that Monk should be able to resolve the matter eventually, though I have no idea how long it might take.

AND I'm not the only one that have a strong suspicious against him... One more thing Guy, because I know you are going to see this... I have the right to know Andre's side of story, I believed in yours and only yours. I never questioned you, I've been loyal all this time... In case you're wondering why we're not friends anymore, it's because YOU TALKED BEHIND MY BACK AGAIN and this time I couldn't forgive you, especially after I asked you to make a video call... And you denied my request again... Wow, what a awesome friendship we had, I've always helped you, and you can't do this for me...

 * TAlim 1994 - Konan T-A Lim 林道安 ( talk  |  contributions ) 02:40, October 3, 2016 (UTC)
 * It's not just that. Yeah, I still wish we could be friends. I'm not gonna comment anymore because I'm not here to badmouth him, he's not here to defend himself. What I said before I said because he blocked me from his facebook, he said shit to me and blocked me right away, I couldn't even discuss our situation, how we would resolve this, why I'm talking to Andre again, because I always thought Monk overreacted and he knew that, so no surprise. I said I had nothing against Andre, and Guy knew that, I don't know why all this pandemonium... So yeah, I have my reasons to think he's a fake, yeah I'm not sure about it Konan, but I've seen strong evidence against him. By the way, I contacted Staff Sannse to help clarify this situation, I have nothing to do with his block. General9913 <font face="Georgia">Talk 03:17, October 3, 2016 (UTC)

Would you like to give Discussions a try on the GTA wiki?
Hey LS11sVaultBoy,

I'm contacting you and the other admins to see if you are aware of Discussions, Fandom's new social feature? It adds a conversation platform to a wiki where users can talk about anything and everything related to the wiki's topic. What makes it different from the current forums you can enable through Special:WikiFeatures is that it works equally well on mobile and desktop, and that it can be a central part of your community's app.

Fandom plans to eventually retire the current forums and migrate all of their content into Discussions, making Discussions the primary conversation space on wikis. However, since you're using wiki-style forums on the GTA Wiki instead of Fandom's forum feature, Discussions would be a new addition for your community, not a replacement.

Do you think this is something you'd like to try? It would give your app users and mobile visitors a way to get involved in the community, talk and contribute, which they haven't been able to do before. Some of them may even turn from read-only visitors to active editors. Desktop users would have a way to discuss GTA from anywhere they go - they could take it with them on their phones. And, since you're not using the forums, you wouldn't have to worry about any current features you love disappearing, or any content on the actual wiki changing.

If you're still unsure about this, you can also check out the Discussions FAQ. You'll find many answers to questions there that other communities have asked us already. Feel free to check out how Discussions is working out for other communities, for example Fallout, Brave Frontier, or Destiny.

All you need to do if you'd like to have Discussions enabled is to let me know, and I'll do that for you. I'm here if you have questions, too! Mira Laime   (help forum | blog) 21:25, October 3, 2016 (UTC)


 * Did you have a chance to discuss enabling Discussions with the community? We've received some feedback from app users saying they'd really like to be able to talk about and connect over GTA in that way. Here's an example of that feedback: Play Store review.


 * If you need more information, or if you're too busy at the moment and would like me to start a discussion on the Community Noticeboard myself, just let me know! Mira Laime   (help forum | blog) 23:37, October 12, 2016 (UTC)

HI I'M NEW HERE SO I NEED HERE.

Well I have been notice thing in GTA IV when the Niko Bellic (Нико Белић) is talking serbian, the accent is so horible that I can believe it! Why the Rockstar have take the decision to Niko Bellic is voiced by american who doesn't understand any serbian word and instead to choose a serbian guy from chicago to voice a Niko Bellic?

EFL Cup
Neither Arsenal or Leeds made their games easy, and knowing our luck, we'll be facing off in the quarter finals. If you guys get Hull (maybe), you could make the semi finals. Remembering our humiliation in 2011, we actually played Ipswich in the semis. Bradford have gone close a few times as well. You could do to Chelsea what Bradford did to them a few years ago. Anyone like Liverpool or Chelsea/West Ham or United/City, it would be a tall order for Leeds.

I've seen a few people saying Arsenal vs Liverpool could be the final. Even with changes, Arsenal's cup players include a four man spine of Ospina, Gabriel, Xhaka & Perez, while Liverpool's could be Mignolet, Sakho, Wijnaldum & Sturridge. It would be interesting, because Wenger's lost two league cup finals and Klopp has lost his last six cup finals. Leo68 (talk) 00:49, October 26, 2016 (UTC)


 * It could be good for Leeds to play on a big stage like the Emirates, or Anfield, or Old Trafford. The Etihad is not as good, it's never full! I remeber Henry's return when we played Leeds, you actually gave us a difficult time that day. Leo68 (talk) 20:02, October 26, 2016 (UTC)
 * I wouldn't say the Saints are easy. Lost 4-0 to them on Boxing Day and they knocked us out of the league cup, at home, in 14/15. I still stand by the prediction of Arsenal vs Liverpool in the final. Leo68 (talk) 21:33, October 26, 2016 (UTC)

Navigation Bar: Weapons in GTA 1
Good day, Tom.

Just to let you, I have encountered the following issue in the navigation bar for the main pages.

In the "GTA Information", on the "Weapons" part, I've noticed that the title Weapons in GTA 1 Era has a small gramatical typo and it is considered as a red link. The error is caused because "Era" is written with a lowercase "e", hence the problem.

Is there any possibility to fix it? Thanks in advance. -- SWAT Cam F     01:18, November 9, 2016 (UTC)

 * I see. That is a bit of a shame, as I enjoyed reading your weekly bulletins. I have been considering potentially adopting your project at a future point in time, but I currently offer no guarantees that I will do so, so please do not hold me to it. Did you remove the notification of the latest edition of the GTA Wiki News from the Sidebar Notifications? Since you are no longer publishing new editions of the GTA Wiki News there is no point for the notice to appear. By the way, the Featured Articles nomination page seems to be rather inactive, so perhaps you or other Staff members should nominate another article?


 * UPDATE: Never mind, there has been another nomination for FA, which I did not notice when I originally posted my message.

Sutton
Hey, if you had gone through you'd have only gotten Arsenal anyway. Magic of the FA Cup though, second in the top flight vs fifth tier. Huge game for such a small team, and they're at home. Knowing Arsenal, we'll get a spectacular win earlier that week at Bayern Munich, then lose at Sutton with 75% of our U21s.

It's not all bad, it helps in Leeds' push to come back up to the top flight. Just incovenient that Brighton & Newcastle went out as well. Newcastle are a dead cert to come back up, but I'd like to see Leeds & Brighton. Both teams who haven't been in the top flight in recent memory.

Regarding Featured Articles and the Trailer
Good day Tom, I have a couple of issues that I require your help with.

Firstly, I cannot seem to figure out how to edit the Featured Article window on the Main Page to change it to State of San Andreas (3D Universe), and I would appreciate it if you tell me which module contains the code for the Featured Article.

Secondly, I recently renamed the Trailer (small) article to Trailer and modified several pages, as there is no article for "Trailer (large)": I am starting to have second thoughts as to whether what I did was appropriate, as it seems that there should be a "Trailer (large)" page, as there does not seem to be a page for the large cargo trailers that can be towed by the Packer, Hauler, Phantom and Phantom Wedge. What are your thoughts on this?

 * There are multiple trailers with GXT2 names "Trailer" in GTA V, that includes the small Trailer, and the large articulated trailer towed by the big-rigs. I created small, but haven't yet proceeded into creating large. I feel the rename you made wasn't necessary, not yet, not until all trailer pages are created, and then Trailer can redirect to the Trailer (large) article rather than the "Trailers" article. <font size="4" face="Tahoma">Monk <font face="Tahoma">Talk 15:30, February 3, 2017 (UTC)

User Talk Pages
This is a message to all 'Crats really but I'm sure the others will read it here. I just reverted a "remove all content from talk page" as it is agreed here that talk pages should not be cleansed just because a user disagrees with what is being said, and I realised that this particular "rule" doesn't appear to be written anywhere in the wiki Policies. Perhaps this needs addressing? <font size="4" color="#008000" face="Arial">Smurfy: <font size="1" face="Arial">illuminate - communicate - spectate 23:37, February 24, 2017 (UTC)

Second block time
Two reminders on his talk page, many comments in edit summaries and from the ones who have bothered to follow along and add the licences for him, one block, another reminder from me and yet he continues to completely defy the image licening requirements.

It's unfortunate because he does seem to be adding good content (like ninja says in his latest block message), although I was initially worried it may have been stolen from other wikis or some of it may have even been fake/mods like his earliest uploads, but I can't find any evidence of that. <font size="4" color="#008000" face="Arial">Smurfy: <font size="1" face="Arial">illuminate - communicate - spectate 20:09, March 28, 2017 (UTC)

Victor Vance's background
Hi, Tom. I see you've undone the edition in the Victor Vance article in which I erased certain data regarding his background. I didn't see any source in the page nor in other articles, so I'd like to ask you - have you got any proof Vic Vance was indeed born in 1956, in Florida? This facts are never confirmed or denied in the game, and the manual's empty too. Thank you. -- 15:42, May 3, 2017 (UTC)
 * Thank you for your answer! Do you mean this website. You can view it perfectly if you allow your browser to enable some features - I don't know how it's in English, but in Google Chrome you can toggle the features on the omnibox. It's set off by default, and if you set it on it'll warn you about a risky connection to the website.


 * I haven´t found the info regarding Vic's date and place of birth, though. Could you please take a look at it? 16:24, May 3, 2017 (UTC)


 * Then, since there's no citation to the statements, I'll remove the data. Thank you very much for your time, Tom. -- 17:37, May 3, 2017 (UTC)

Question: Los Santos Port Authority
While I was surfing the web, I came across this image of two coast guard officers which matches the description found on The Port Authority of Los Santos. They wear life jackets with an American flag on their chest, and wear Navy Blue uniforms like the LSPD. I think I come across them once in GTA5 but that was a while ago. The image was uploaded by a user named AgentSanchez on discussion page about hidden peds. I also uploaded the image to the wiki as proof. With the summary containing credit to the original owner and a link to the original webpage. I also have two questions on the coast guard officers: Where do they normally spawn? and are they considered to be part of the Los Santos Port Authority or are they a separate Law Enforcement Agency?

Explain this.
So, why did you undo my edit on the Ingot page? Personal grudge against Rstein/me? I can provide a screenshot of a bog standard Ingot in V to prove that the exhaust is bugged.

EDIT: Seems like this mod is a hotpocket who reverts and blocks everyone and everything he doesn't like. Didn't expect anything else from something called the GTA Wikia.

Cargo Vehicle Trivia
Hello and good day, sir! Is there something more that I need before I edit the Trivia section for the Cargo Vehicles? If the FMJ is named after Full Metal Jacket, it is very possible that the Joker license plate is in reference to Joker, the main protagonist for the movie. Or is there other evidence that I'm not aware of that invalidates that? (Arcalargo (talk) 15:12, June 1, 2017 (UTC))


 * I have rolled back both your revert of the Full Metal Jacket movie trivia (as you agreed on Arcalargo's talk), but also the Suicide Squad reference since images and video of Joker's G35 were leaked as early as May 2015 - well in advance of this DLC and enough time for it to have influenced the reference.  <font size="4" color="#FF6600" face="Arial">Smurfy: <font size="1" face="Arial">illuminate - communicate - spectate 22:08, June 1, 2017 (UTC)

Thebadnews (talk) 12:42, June 3, 2017 (UTC)


 * We simply don't need such a specific article. We already have Pedestrians, which is a perfectly acceptable article where minor references to "perverts" could be made. <font size="4" face="Tahoma">Monk <font face="Tahoma">Talk 12:45, June 3, 2017 (UTC)


 * Okay, I can appreciate that. But the problem is that there's a subsection for noteworthy pedestrians, some of whom have their own pages. And those I made an article about, being so rare and only appearing for one mission, surely fit the same critera?
 * Thebadnews (talk) 13:44, June 3, 2017 (UTC)

Nationality section.
Hello there. I've been thinking and I believe changing nationality part in the character box as ethnicity would fit better in the character box. I'd give more information about the character and also is more accurate for many characters here as there are some Mexican-American, Chinese-American in character boxes. And these are not nationalities but ethnicities. Nationality is the place of birth while ethnicity is the cultural background. Just trying to give my best to the community. Peace.
