DLC Vehicles
Hey Leon Davis. I'm gonna give you a chance to make a DLC page for GTA IV's vehicles. That way, it'll be fair to keep the DLC Vehicles in GTA V page. I removed the deletion template and categories for now, but they'll be added back if you don't make a page like that for GTA IV. 23:47, May 18, 2014 (UTC)Smashbro8.

Vehicles in GTA IV now added. http://gta.wikia.com/DLC_Vehicles_in_GTA_IV Leon Davis (talk) 07:05, May 19, 2014 (UTC)

Templates
Hey Leon Davis. I noticed the Extra Terrestrial Detector page you created, and I will say I appreciate the fact that you put the page to be a stub as well as add the "Images Needed" category. However, there's only one problem. You wrote the stub part, however, to shorten all of that work you can simply add Images (plus surrounding it) to add the stub template and Images (plus {{ )) surrounding it;click ok after it pops up), which automatically adds the images needed category. I thought this might help you next time. Feel free to leave me a message if you need any more help. 04:55, July 15, 2014 (UTC)Smashbro8

Thanks for the help. Leon Davis (talk) 05:39, July 15, 2014 (UTC)

No problem. Do you understand by the way? I had to do a couple nonsense to stop the actual templates from showing that's why. 06:16, July 15, 2014 (UTC)Smashbro8

Yeah, it was rather useful, there are still things to learn here, I've only been active for about a year so it takes adjusting, right? Leon Davis (talk) 12:26, July 15, 2014 (UTC)

Yup you are right. When I came here I didn't know anything. I couldn't understand the templates, the categories, I didn't even know how to add wikipedia links XD. Anyway, keep trying at it. I can talk to an admin and see if I can give you a page to practice those templates on by the way. 17:26, July 15, 2014 (UTC)Smashbro8

A Word of Advice
Hey Leon Davis. I noticed your request for promotion to a patroller on the GTA: Requests for Promotion page. I just wanted to tell you it's best to message all of the staff members and let them know you've made a request so they can vote on it. Just wanted to let you know. 07:02, July 28, 2014 (UTC)Smashbro8

Thanks I've mentioned it to Illan but I still need to get back to him. Leo68 (talk) 10:12, July 28, 2014 (UTC)

Alright and you know how to get to the page that lists all staff members right? 16:51, July 28, 2014 (UTC)Smashbro8

Promotion
Congrats, you're now a Patroller :). Tom Talk 09:56, August 3, 2014 (UTC)


 * Congrats, Leo. :) If you have any questions, ideas or something similar, do not hesitate to ask me or Tom. P.S. Please choose an image (GTA-related) to use as your avatar on the staff page. -- ILan ( XD &bull; Edits &bull; Home ) 11:05, August 3, 2014 (UTC)


 * I think Ilan is sorting that out, it usually takes a while to change. Tom Talk 23:18, August 3, 2014 (UTC)


 * For a some reason the coloring doesn't work. I'll continue to check it every day. Anyway, yeah, sure. You can use your current avatar for the staff page. I'll add you soon. -- ILan ( XD &bull; Edits &bull; Home ) 10:10, August 5, 2014 (UTC)

Congrats man on the promotion! I hope you enjoy being a patroller here and if you need any help don't hesitate to ask me! 23:42, August 3, 2014 (UTC)Smashbro8

We don't urgently need a patroller, we need to wait until a good candidate comes along. We don't want to rush into anything and end up with someone unqualified. Tom Talk 11:47, August 18, 2014 (UTC)

Re:Instructor
I didn't delete the Pilot School Instructor page, I just made it a redirect to the Flight School Instructor page. Carl Johnson Jr. (talk) 17:02, August 20, 2014 (UTC)

Alright, I noticed. Thanks. Leo68 (talk) 17:19, August 20, 2014 (UTC)

DRLs
Thanks bro, i appreciate it, even the minimal features like the DRLs deserve an article ;) (AndreEagle17 (talk) 02:50, August 25, 2014 (UTC))

re: running lights
Is it really necessary to have a page for daylight running lights, as opposed to just putting it in the trivia section? Does this mean we need to have a page for convertibles and other trivial vehicle parts? If anything there should be a vote on this Universetwisters (talk) 02:53, August 25, 2014 (UTC)

convertible tops are a minor visual feature too but they don't have a page. And it wouldn't be an edit war had you not reverted all the requests. Don't they have th go through a keep/delete thing to determine if it stays or not? And even then, there's a lot of pages marked for deletion that haven't been deleted for a while Universetwisters (talk) 03:02, August 25, 2014 (UTC)

I'll talk to an admin about it in the morning. In the meantime, please stop removing my request. There is no need to remove other peoples opinions just because you don't agree with them Universetwisters (talk) 03:05, August 25, 2014 (UTC)

Sorry to but into this, but I believe the page should be kept because it is a new feature found in cars in the HD Universe. Your request to delete such a page is like saying the Door Ajar Chime page should be deleted because it's nothing special. I honestly believe both pages should be kept and left alone. 03:09, August 25, 2014 (UTC)Smashbro8

Considering that both pages really are "nothing special" and are rather trivial aspects to the vehicles, why not add the fact that they have running lights or door ajar chimes to the vehicle's trivia page? Universetwisters (talk) 03:13, August 25, 2014 (UTC)

Nope, they deserve their own page. They're lots of feature pages such as Executions, Threatening, Top-down perspective, etc that have their own pages, so saying to delete both pages isn't necessary. 03:21, August 25, 2014 (UTC)Smashbro8

RE:
I deleted the DRL page because I too believe it is irrelevant. However, we should keep the door ajar chime page as that is a new, more noticeable feature. LS11sVaultBoy (Talk) 10:19, August 25, 2014 (UTC)

RE: Unnecessary Pages
I thin we should keep them because they are still a part of the game and its design. Without them it would be a boring, dull city. LS11sVaultBoy (Talk) 10:45, August 25, 2014 (UTC)

Yup, i just didn't know how to put a "delete" template, but thanks, now i'm aware of it :) (AndreEagle17 (talk) 21:24, September 6, 2014 (UTC))

RE:Promotion
Alright, thanks Leo. I suppose I could give it another shot later on in the future, but after that whole mess that occurred involving me on another wiki, I'm not sure if the staff here is too keen on trusting me. I'll continue editing here though. Thanks again for your "yes" vote. RageQuit Talk 16:32, September 7, 2014 (UTC)

Buffalo
Hey Leo, about the Buffalo, a user said that Dom has a Buffalo, i was waiting someone to confirm that so a edited it quickly before i had to get out, but okay, i have never seen him in a Buffalo either, so that's okay with this, i'll revert the Buffalo from his vehicles too (AndreEagle17 (talk) 01:45, September 9, 2014 (UTC))

Actually, this user was the one who said that (AndreEagle17 (talk) 02:39, September 9, 2014 (UTC))

Pfister Design
Hey Leon Davis. I'm thinking about adding Pfister Design to the Clothing Stores category because in real life, Porsche Design sells clothes, shoes, jewelry and other luxurious stuff, which Pfister Design is based off of. Let me know if you think adding Pfister Design to the Clothing Stores category is a good idea. 18:59, September 10, 2014 (UTC)Smashbro8

Assassination Page
Hey Leon Davis. I agree with making a page for Lester's assassination missions. You can go ahead and make it and I'll check to see if you missed out anything. 22:29, September 13, 2014 (UTC)Smashbro8

Dom's Buffalo
Hey Leo, what's up? Remember when we reverted the information saying that Dom does not own a Buffalo? Today, actually, 10 minutes ago i saw him driving a Buffalo in the Strangers and Freaks mission Targeted Risk, play by yourself and you'll see that he goes away with a orange Buffalo, i'm adding that information to the page, alright? (AndreEagle17 (talk) 23:16, September 13, 2014 (UTC))

Hahaha i actually like his missions, it's just fun, his death was also ironic for me (AndreEagle17 (talk) 00:06, September 14, 2014 (UTC))

Language?
Okay man, if you say so, i just didn't consider that "Bullshit", but okay, if you're telling this, i'll change it to "that's ridiculous" (AndreEagle17 (talk) 00:59, September 17, 2014 (UTC))

Hello mah n*gga, your erased my publication ¿Why? Because my question wasn`t to your liking? OK

im sorry im having to constantly revert it, but im trying to help, the guy that edited the adder keeps changing what ive done. im only trying to help, if he keep changing it aswell shoudnt he be banned aswell, why cant he just agree with me!!Monkeypolice188 (talk) 12:01, September 19, 2014 (UTC) Monkeypolice188

i wish i woudnt of given my apologies to you now, and by the way i won the adder case!!

its quite unbelivable your treating me like this, i have bearly been on the wiki a month now, and your treating me like i know everything about it, give me a chance, i have little to no experience with this feature and your constantly watching over my work and changing things, im just pointing thing out, i have no idea about the wiki terms and policies and you think you can shout and be smart with me, im sick of the treatment on the wiki, its quite irratating me, infact if something i edit gets changed by you again i will submit a block against you and leave the wiki.

RE: ATMs
Yeah thanks, I wanted to add the under construction template but I forgot :) I've considered promotion, but right now I think there are enough patrollers and they're doing well. Maybe in the future I'll make a request if it's needed. DocVinewood (talk) 08:32, October 10, 2014 (UTC)

Construction/stub templates on the Verified jobs pages
Thanks for the reminder, broke my flow and I made a few mistakes... :)

I had the construction template on my initial copy&paste text and obviously dropped it off at some point so I added back on again for the last few.

I don't intend fleshing those Verified pages out the way I did for the Rockstar Created jobs myself, someone else can have that pleasure.

Yes, I turn 45 this year. Some of us have to contribute to the high side of that "average age of a gamer" statistic, right? Smurfynz (talk) 06:24, October 13, 2014 (UTC)

Split Lago Zancudo and Zancudo River
Hey Leon Davis. I made a request on the Lago Zancudo's talk page about splitting it apart from the Zancudo River, since the Zancudo River link redirects to Lago Zancudo. I think they are two different locations and need to be split apart like they first were. Leave a vote on the talk page please. 18:47, October 13, 2014 (UTC)Smashbro8

Template
If you have to warn a user who created an incorrect page, you should use this template I created.

BTW, YOU ARE 46 ? Damn, I thought you were like 18....Anyway, welcome here "old man" ;) RainingPain17 ( Talk -  Edits  -  Blogs ) 18:50, October 13, 2014 (UTC)

Age
I know it's not a quite serious topic, but whoa! You're 46? Because,really, I thought you were 16 or 18, because you hate the Dubsta and you like the Zentorno, I thought only younger players hated the Dubsta, and BTW I consider myself a "old man", I like muscle cars, Off-road vehicles, Ferraris rather than modern vehicles and those "old man things" xD ( Talk  ) 18:59, October 13, 2014 (UTC)

Yup, I had to write about the edit war in Ilan's talk page, he is a very rude user, at first, he called Cloudkit a "little cunt", and now he says it's a dumb fact, IMO that was a very interesting fact ( Talk  ) 21:27, October 13, 2014 (UTC)

Sticking my nose into both these discussions... Smurfynz (talk) 21:34, October 13, 2014 (UTC)
 * 1) Leo is only a year or two older than me :)
 * 2) That guy must have Tourettes in his fingers, every edit seems to need a rude comment, some of them rightly earning him a block previously. But to be honest, I actually agree with him about the irrelevance of that trivia on the Roosevelt, but I don't mind if it stays there either.

Nov 19, '69. Got into a bad habit after about 35 of forgetting how old I actually am so just do the [curryear-1969] calculation, so before November I can be over-stating the age. Smurfynz (talk) 21:42, October 13, 2014 (UTC)

Zancudo River redirect
You can edit it by changing the address in your browser to /Zancudo_River?action=edit This avoids the redirect and allows you to remove it. Smurfynz (talk) 20:41, October 13, 2014 (UTC)

Oh man, even you got into that? Sean and Razor are starting to annoy every user now, but entering in a wiki that you work as a Crat? This has gone too far, but i'll give you an advice, don't even answer them ( Talk ) 14:45, October 16, 2014 (UTC)

Beaters & Wrecks
Hey man, I was thinking about spliting up the page Wrecks, to make the undriveable wrecks stay on their page an the beaters to have their own page, this is because "Wrecks" is on the "Uncontrollable vehicles" category, so if Wrecks are separete from beaters, it will be more accurate to say that they're uncontrollable, while the beaters are controllable, what do you think about that? ( Talk ) 17:02, October 17, 2014 (UTC)

Alright, i'll put this in the discussion and i'll add a "separete" template in the main page, we need to know if other users will agree ( Talk ) 17:11, October 17, 2014 (UTC)

Noted
Too late for the last revert.. am uploading the video (my internet upload speed sucks). Given RazorShotter has colluded with SeanSiew and XPpanettaa (see iLans talk page), I'm kind of hoping reason will prevail here. Smurfynz (talk) 23:26, October 17, 2014 (UTC)

Demotion
The idea was suggested because Cloudkit do rarely answer messages other users leave him, and do never vote on requests for promotion. Four months ago Ilan left him a message but it appears nothing has really changed. RainingPain17 ( Talk -  Edits  -  Blogs ) 19:18, October 20, 2014 (UTC)

Sorry to but in this, but Cloud also fails to help the community. Not only does he not reply to other users but he also does not vote nor try to help the GTA Wiki community become better. With all these problems here and discussions we are making to make this wiki better, Cloud has yet to join them. Also RainingPain, LS11sVaultBoy has warned Cloudkit too and he hasn't changed either. 19:22, October 20, 2014 (UTC)Smashbro8

Well, with Tom we have decided not to open request, but he will leave him a last message (3rd warning). In case nothing changes after, as Tom said, it's an issue, and we'll open the request.

By the way I need your help with something. I'm working on "trivia splitting", i.e. splitting the trivia into different sections (one per game). There should be a category "General" with facts referring to the different renditions of the weapon/vehicle, and one with trivia facts related to a single game. (see an example here). Since there is a lot of work with that, could you help me with that ? Thanks. RainingPain17 ( Talk -  Edits  -  Blogs ) 08:36, October 21, 2014 (UTC)

Trivia Sections
Hey Leon Davis. RainingPain and majority of the community has started sectioning trivia on pages into separate sections for each game. Trivia that goes for several games or other games goes into a General section. We're going to need a lot of help so if you see any pages with a lot of trivia, try working on them. Thanks! 02:16, October 22, 2014 (UTC)Smashbro8

Franklin's mom
Doesn't deserve a page in my opinion, she is just mentioned one or two times, not like Beverly Johnson. 21:56, October 22, 2014 (UTC)

Thanks for reporting the template problem. I attempted something but it was messed up. It's fixed now. 16:43, October 28, 2014 (UTC)

Dodo
Hey Leo, I know that the plane is different, in previous games it was just a civilian plane, now in the Next Gent version is a seaplane, you can see it in Rockstar's picture in instagram: http://instagram.com/p/uswmjkCsWN/

Well, if ROCKSTAR refers to the plane as the "Dodo", I think it is really called "Dodo" in-game ( Talk ) 18:52, October 28, 2014 (UTC)

Advanced/Enhanced/8thGen/NextGen
See my blog post from last week. As predicted, we're getting into petty edit wars over naming convention. I posted on Ilan's talk page last night asking his input. Personally I disagree with "advanced" as that then gives rise to confusion too (GameBoyAdvance version of GTAV?). Enhanced might be better? Smurfynz (talk) 00:50, October 30, 2014 (UTC)

Should I get GTA V for PC? It looks better but I don't want to buy it again.
Yes :) I for one am planning to go to PC. Might be a excuse to upgrade my Radeon5770 (kids are waiting for the hand-me-down) as I doubt it will handle the very highest settings (not that they have released requirements yet). Smurfynz (talk) 03:14, October 30, 2014 (UTC)

Category
I suggest that the category you created, Category:Exclusive Next Gen Vehicles in GTA V, is renamed into "Exclusive Next Gen Content in GTA V", so every feature of the next-gen game is in that category. I have already edited the so every page using the template is listed in that category. 11:04, October 30, 2014 (UTC)

RE: About Smurfynz
Of course, Smurf left because he was tired of me making wrong english edits and he kept complaining in Wanted Level in GTA V which was already protected by User:Ilan xd. I was trying to calm him down, be he ignored it and insulted me. But this mess is over. He left gta wiki and im cleaning up the mess me and smurf made from this nonsense. BTW, He never liked me, I hate him and RazorShotter. 123johnpaul (talk) 14:59, November 3, 2014 (UTC) 123johnpaul

The real version is that JohnPaul was edit warring with Smurfynz over something he (JP) couldn't even verify (it was the spelling of a sentence). On the talk page, Smashbro8 suggested to lock the page to prevent further edit warring. JP disagreed, and Smurfynz explained why. With "aggressive comment" as an excuse, JP removed several times Smurfynz's comment accusing Smurfynz of being the cause of the edit war. Smurfynz then reported JP to iLan, and left a rather aggressive message (titled GET LOST) on JP's talk page. JP then said that Smurfynz was wasting his own life on video games and websites. After fighting with him on iLan's talk page, he announced that he was gone. 16:48, November 3, 2014 (UTC)

Don't bother warning him, he doesn't listen, he keeps adding fake info in the articles, I hope he does one more thing and Tom blocks him indefinitely ( Talk ) 16:58, November 5, 2014 (UTC)

Its/It's
Don't want to be an English teacher to you, but just something :) It's = It is (verb). "Its" is the Possessive determiner for It, hence the correct form in what I just fixed on the page. 17:02, November 5, 2014 (UTC)

DRLs/Neon Lights
Hey Leo, I was talking to Smashbro, so we decided to talk to The Tom to recreate the Daytime Running Lights page, which was deleted some time ago, but now we should add a detail about the Neon lights, as they are a feature in the enhanced version of GTA V, it's a new modification, the only car in the previous gen version that had neons was the Space Docker, now any car can be modified to have neon lights, so, what do you think about the idea? ( Talk ) 16:04, November 6, 2014 (UTC)
