Vandalism

 * 1) please create headings for talk page messages.


 * 2) Sign off messages.


 * 3) you removed all the content from that specified template. That is vandalism. Please avoid this.

Stay blessed. :) Monk Talk 18:00, April 19, 2016 (UTC)


 * You can also check out GTA Wiki:Vandalism for more information. LS11sVaultBoy (Talk) 20:26, April 19, 2016 (UTC)

Signature
Go to your Preferences, under the signature heading, and choose "I want to use wikitext in my signature". Then you just create a new signature in "Custom Signature" (you can create a template or just type the code inside the box). When you're done, just click save at the bottom and you can see the result. Hope I helped. TGS96 talk stalk 14:51, April 22, 2016 (UTC)


 * If you want something like mine, type/copy-paste this in the text box:

 * In Preferences or Source mode ? GTAFanBoy86 (talk) 15:22, April 22, 2016 (UTC)


 * This is all done in the preferences. In the the space for typing. The space accepts this kind of HTML :) <font size="4" face="Tahoma">Monk <font face="Tahoma">Talk 15:25, April 22, 2016 (UTC)


 * I think i can't do this :( but thank you GTAFanBoy86 15:34, April 22, 2016 (UTC)


 * Hey don't worry :)


 * 1) Go to your avatar at the top of the menu. Hover over it.
 * 2) Select "Preferences"
 * 3) Go to the "Signature" heading. It's the second section in the "My info" section (default).
 * 4) There should be "Existing signature:" and "Custom signature:". In the "Custom signature" bar, copy and paste the code I gave you up there. (Reminder :P)
 * 5) Under this bar is a tick-box, reading "I want to use wikitext in my signature". Please tick this box if it isn't ticked already.
 * 6) Finally, go to the very bottom of the page, and click the "Save" button.


 * All done ;) <font size="4" face="Tahoma">Monk <font face="Tahoma">Talk 15:39, April 22, 2016 (UTC)

Licensing
Mate, you don't need to request a deletion for an image just because you licensed it wrong. All you do it go to the file, click edit, go into "Source", and paste the license template, eg:

FYI,  and   mark templates; they are code for templates.

Regarding minor changes to your Talk page introduction area
Good day Mustafa. I hope that you do not mind, but I made a few minor changes to the introduction area (where the image of Niko, Johnny and Luis and your clock appear). If you do not like the changes, feel free to revert them.

Images
Hello. I had to delete a number of Chinatown Wars Liberty City map images that you have uploaded. These images had the "WikiGTA" watermark on them so we cannot use any images like this as it violates the "no copying other wikis" rule. Please do not re-upload these images unless you find a non-watermarked version.

Re:  WikiGTA  Watermarked Images
Okay. I was just concerned about the watermarks because usually, that means that a website or a person claims ownership that image. Although the media policy doesn't state anything about images with watermarks, we need permission to use their images and to source their website. I guess because the watermarks was placed across the image, it was best to remove them.

Regarding changes to your clock
Good day Mustafa, I have fixed some coding bugs that you inadvertently introduced to your clock template when you were trying to alter it. Also, are you sure that you want your clock background to be white instead of red? If so, I will change the colour of the text in the coloured area so that it can be seen.

 * UPDATE: I have change the text color of your clock to black.

Re: My Winter Clock
Your Turkey Winter Time clock is correctly configured, and there is nothing more that you need to do. You seem to be getting used to the coding now; good job.

By the way, the next time that you are in Chat with an Administrator or Bureaucrat (such as Monk), I will send you a picture of myself as you have requested.

RE: Images
They're licenced and named correctly, but I think the views you have are the "front quarter" views, not the front. If you want to re-upload them I can delete the originals once you've done. <font size="5" face="Old English Text MT">Sam <font face="Old English Text MT">Talk 10:44, May 17, 2016 (UTC)

How to create links with ordinary text
Good day Mustafa. With regards to your Chat question about how to create links with plain text, enter two open square brackets ,  the text to be displayed, then two close square brackets.

For example: your User page creates a link to your User page with the text "your User page".

For external links, enter one open square bracket ([), the link URL, a space, the text to be displayed, then one close square bracket (]).

For example: YouTube creates a link to YouTube's main page with the text "YouTube".

Re: Re-naming a image
The image has been renamed to "Debra-GTAV-HangTen.jpg", as it is a more clear description. Thank you for notifying me. However, if you wish for a faster image name correction, use the Rename page, as it is often checked by Administrators and Bureaucrats.

Regarding your question in Chat
Good day Mustafa. Regarding your earlier Chat question to Monk, which was never answered, "besides", in the context (manner) used in the Chat, basically means "other than (this)". For example: "I do not like vulgar jokes. Besides, I do not like bad language".

Regarding an image
Good day Mustafa, I am not sure whether you can assist me with this, but can you tell me whether this image is from Lifeinvader or Bleeter? I fear that I may have made a mistake in the naming of this image, as I am not certain of the layout of either website.

TAlim 1994<font face="Segoe Script" color="Ghostwhite"> - Konan T-A Lim 林道安 ( talk  |  contributions ) 10:06, August 3, 2016 (UTC)


 * It's from Lifeinvader - layout and colors match. 10:10, August 3, 2016 (UTC)


 * I thought so. I actually assumed that it was from Bleeter initially, but decided to preempt (predict or guess) what I expected the answer to be by renaming the image and related page information beforehand. Thank you to both you and Rain for the assistance.

Renaming Images
If an image only appears on 1 article, please do not leave a redirect when renaming - this can be done by unticking "leave a redirect" when in the rename/move interface. Thanks. <font size="4" face="Tahoma">Monk <font face="Tahoma">Talk
 * Unfortunately you need to be an admin to be able to rename images without leaving redirects. I know, this is pretty annoying to have to contact sysops to cleanup the redirects left during the moving processes. 22:09, August 4, 2016 (UTC)


 * Unfortunately, I can't re-name any images without redirect. Am i should not re-name images ? GTAFan86-Signature2.png<font face="Century Gothic" color="Yellow"><span title="Talk to me!">talk • <font face="Century Gothic" color="Yellow"><span title="My Edits!">contribs 06:03, August 5, 2016 (UTC)


 * I feel that something should be done about this, as it is a rather unfortunate limitation for Patrollers. See if you can do something about it, or else contact Wikia about the matter.
 * TAlim 1994<font face="Segoe Script" color="Ghostwhite"> - Konan T-A Lim 林道安 ( talk  |  contributions ) 09:55, August 5, 2016 (UTC)


 * Not leaving a redirect is actually classified as deleting a page - you are renaming, yes, but you are also deleting the original file, moving a file without a redirect isn't actually moving the file, it's just creating a new page with the same file, and deleting the old one. That said, I don't think I will bother contacting Wikia, as I personally have no problem with spare redirects; if we use the Rename page as it is, we could add all the file renames to there, and Sysops can delete the redirects.


 * PS GTAFan if multiple users respond to a message on your talk page, answer on your own talk page, don't reply to the original sender, as that is splitting the conversation. Thanks. <font size="4" face="Tahoma">Monk <font face="Tahoma">Talk 10:08, August 5, 2016 (UTC)

 * Your point is noted Monk. If you are fine with the renaming system for Patrollers as it is, then leave it as it is. However, as discussed in Chat, are you intending to allow Patrollers to edit protected pages (or have you already done so)?
 * TAlim 1994<font face="Segoe Script" color="Ghostwhite"> - Konan T-A Lim 林道安 ( talk  |  contributions ) 11:01, August 5, 2016 (UTC)
