Why italicating all "GTA" mentions is not possible via Bot
Hey man. I've been fiddling around with my bot today, and after considering what you said about asking it to italicate all cases of "GTA". Well, I've come to realise it just isn't possible because of how sensitive the bot really is. Take a look at this:



This is a bot revision. In the bottom left of the Bot interface, you can see a list, which is created from "What Links Here/Grand Theft Auto V". As you can see, it has applied my settings (see below picture) to the first page in this list, and you can see the changes made, just like how you can review changes in the Wiki editor.

Here, I have asked the bot to ask MANY types of GTA Game titles; here's the list of changes (changing from (first column) to (second column).



In case you haven't noticed, what the bot is doing is overriding italicization; because I asked it to italicate "GTA V", it will find anything with "GTA V" in, grammatically, which means that it will find "GTA Vice City", and italicate the "GTA V" part, resulting in: GTA Vice City (source: ). See? It will do this to literally anything, since it's sensitivity like that cannot be reduced - I really wished that I could limit it to finding only separate words wherein GTA Vice City wouldn't be counted - since "GTA V" is a separate word from "ice City", unfortunately it doesn't look possible. I'll look into it more.

Of course, there is the option of solely limiting it to italicize "GTA Vice City", and then going through all of GTA V pages and italicizing the "GTA V" bits, but it would still cause the same issue. It seems that it cannot ignore wikitext around current words either (i.e., if something reads, it will still attempt to italize it, resulting in  ).

It also applies to GTA III, since I asked it to find "GTA I" and "GTA II" (GTA 1 and GTA 2- there are some cases where they are written like that), so it finding "GTA III" would cause it to change "GTA III" to:.

I'll do more research into it later on, but I hope you can understand why exactly this doesn't work. Monk Talk 16:38, June 12, 2016 (UTC)


 * No. WildBrick has already stated that he doesn't know much about programming, as with Rain - the bot doesn't require coding at all, nor programming. It's basic instructions, unfortunately not advanced enough to avoid this issue.


 * And no. I cannot get it to italicise these headings either; the "error" still applies with games such as Grand Theft Auto III, Grand Theft Auto IV and Grand Theft Auto V, in that it will still apply the same mistake to them. Monk Talk 18:40, June 14, 2016 (UTC)

RE: Image
I've renamed it as best I can think of. I can see why it confused you, it took me a few minutes to think of a name for it. I don't think we've had an image like that before. Sam Talk 16:27, June 14, 2016 (UTC)
 * If it can confuse us then I think it would be unfair to issue a reminder to him for breaching the policy. I think the Media Policy needs to be amended to include non-canon images such as that, to prevent something like this in future. Sam Talk 16:44, June 14, 2016 (UTC)

RE:Regarding the Playstation 4
Theres no "Select" button anymore, only the "Start" button, the "Home" button (that opens the Playstation main manu) and the "Share" button. Normally, functions that used to belong to the "Select" are now activated by pressing the controller's touch pad, that can also work as a button. - DLVIII   Talk  02:15, June 18, 2016 (UTC)

RE: Buckingham article
Hello Konan.

Well, assuming that leaving the real life basis field empty will mislead to an idea that "the vehicle is not based on any known vehicle" (even though it was mentioned on the base model, like the Valkyrie) and given that the Valkyrie MOD.0 has nothing and the SuperVolito Carbon has the real life basis mentioned, I simply edited the page to bring it back, thinking it was a mere mistake.

Honestly, Konan, I hate these inconsistencies and the fact that I am saying "It should be like that" and another one saying "No. Like that", and so on, so I am either upset or uninterested in correct these inconsistencies again. If Monk want that idea like that, fine, I am not gonna say anything, but please, do not make things more confusing as it was before.

Also, I hate that I cannot defend my position without someone answering it (assuming that, if a message goes on my talk page, I should at least answer to that message to solve any current question or issue), therefore making my responses almost useless. Sometimes, I think I would not respond to anything anymore.

Anyway. Sorry for any inconvenience and I hope you understand the issue regarding the edit on the Buckingham page. SWAT Cam F    02:58, June 21, 2016 (UTC)


 * Cam, you can't simply go AWOL just because someone says that something needs to be done in an opposite manner to what you did. It isn't hate, it isn't meant to offend you, the only reason I did it is because, as I said, it's pretty pointless. If you're going to go AWOL over things like this, it doesn't help. You need to accept that sometimes you won't always make the right decisions choices that necessarily make the best reading, hence, someone will help you, I'm trying to helo you. I won't bother next time if you're just going to keep leaving like this. <font size="4" face="Tahoma">Monk <font face="Tahoma">Talk 06:09, June 21, 2016 (UTC)

 * Officer Pulaski calls the journalist a "stoolie", which is a betrayer or snitch; and as the "journalist" is only referred to as the "Target" in the mission objectives, it is likely he is some sort of snitch. Danyan1429 (talk) 19:10, July 17, 2016 (UTC)

RE: Links
Hi Konan. My own view of "overlinking" is the same as Wikipedia's. Their MoS states that a link if possible should appear once after the lead section (i.e. once in the lead and once again in the main section) though repeated links in places like infoboxes are ok. The reason I share this view is because in my opinion articles with excessive links (especially repeated ones) can become cluttered, especially if they're linked ambigiously (e.g. Tommy instead of Tommy Vercetti). This is just my opinion and is not the Wiki policy, and I don't go out specifically looking for overlinks, just removing them if I find them. I hope that makes sense. <font size="5" face="Old English Text MT">Sam <font face="Old English Text MT">Talk 11:35, July 17, 2016 (UTC)

RE: Two Questions
First question: I didn't realise it was like that on all of the pages, I thought it was just an error, you can add it back.

Second question: I'm not sure, I assumed it was just all admins but the new template could have made it just b'crats. Monk is active a lot though so if it is always him on it then that would possibly be why.

Good news
I have some excellent news. After getting a lot of help from Community Central users, I have been able to force the bot to do the job properly; italicating only what I tell it to, and italicating only unitalicated text. For instance, telling it to italicate GTA I originally would have caused it to italicate GTA II, and GTA III. Now, it will only italicate GTA I (complex regex code prevents it from italicating the others). Also, if the text has italicates already, or any code around it (links, tags < />, template brackets { }), it will not italicate it. <font size="4" face="Tahoma">Monk <font face="Tahoma">Talk 09:39, July 20, 2016 (UTC)


 * See the history of this page to see that it worked. Also, can you provide/develop a list of everything you want it to italicate? i.e. every variation of GTA game titles. :) <font size="4" face="Tahoma">Monk <font face="Tahoma">Talk 09:40, July 20, 2016 (UTC)


 * Unfortunately there's bad news. It works, that's that, and yes, I can italicate links, however, now I have a problem: I can give the bot 1 page to work on, and it will find all words not italicated, and italicate them, however, if I give it two pages in the list to work from, two or more, it will not find anything. It's really strange. I put loads of GTA titles (unitalicated) on the Drift Tampa for it to work from, it worked, but when I put another article in the list, it didn't find the unitalicated text and thus didn't italicate anything. Really can't understand it. <font size="4" face="Tahoma">Monk <font face="Tahoma">Talk 10:34, July 20, 2016 (UTC)

RE: User page header and resignation
Good day, Konan.

I have noticed the error you pointed out and I would like to correct it. However, as you can figure out (and figured out by myself), my user page was, for security purposes, locked when I was formerly an Administrator of the wiki, and therefore I cannot do such correction. You may wish to either: unlock the page to gain the permission to edit there or correct said text for me (I think I pointed out any staff member can correct any mistake on my page).

As for me, it is okay. I simply was utterly stressed and all those discussions and mistakes on the past days just gave me more stress than ever, hence my decision to resign. Given that now I am fine, I will probably resume my activity, although not as often as before.

Thanks. -- SWAT Cam F     02:13, July 23, 2016 (UTC)

Concerns
While this isn't immediately breaching any policy, it is slightly concerning me that you are taking up to 10 revisions in a row to get an edit right - take a little more care and time in your first edit and fewer corrections will have to be made consequently...It's a little frustrating, especially when I see an entirely different mistake to fix, and upon fixing it, you have since corrected your own revision for the third time, corrupting my edit.

Would you like Discussions enabled on the GTA Wiki?
Hey TAlim 1994,

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) 21:33, October 3, 2016 (UTC)

New information
<p style="font-weight:normal;font-size:14px;">Hello sir. I have new information to add to the wiki and i'd like the whole community to look at it and vote on the validity of my information. This is a special case here since it involves the mural and that after 3 years, we all seen a thousands of explanation for the mural itself , but nobody actually took the time to do a complete analysis of the mural. This analysis took me 3 months to complete, and it ended up on the mural being completely deciphered. All the 18 elements contained in it. Off course since we are dealing with abstract art and symbolism, a lot of my ressearch end up being  my own interpretation .

<p style="font-weight:normal;font-size:14px;">During the analysis though, i took the time to place litterally all possible interpretation ( i would usually drop the modern context since nothing in the mural suggested a modern symbolism ) and i also found out many in-game clues and references that are not refutable at all.

<p style="font-weight:normal;font-size:14px;">This obviously take many hours to read. I'd just wish for my analysis to be looked at by competent people who know everything about GTA. So again the only thing i ask you is to actually READ THE WHOLE THING. There's an order for the information too, missing only 1 paragraph makes you lose the essence of the analysis.

<p style="font-weight:normal;font-size:14px;">Here's my ressearch : Mount Chiliad Mural complete analysis

<p style="font-weight:normal;font-size:14px;">https://www.reddit.com/r/chiliadmystery/comments/558j9a/mount_chiliad_mural_complete_analysis_and/ -

<p style="font-weight:normal;font-size:14px;">Visual support : http://imgur.com/idAhdKQ

<p style="font-weight:normal;font-size:14px;">This is the visual support for my analysis. In the same imgur post you will also find a re-written version of the main story using this wikia for my main sources of information. My version is seamless and also written in an Classical Hollywood Script template to expose to everyone how the main story was actually made using those exact systems and codes. This is a parody of Hollywood after all, It makes complete sense that the main story itself would be written using the exact same codes promoted by Hollywood for several decades.

<p style="font-weight:normal;font-size:14px;">https://www.reddit.com/r/GameWritingLab/comments/55i8zp/is_gtav_main_story_written_like_a_hollywood_movie/

<p style="font-weight:normal;font-size:14px;">In any case, i am willing to go through any verification process for my information and i can also participate in elaborating a good format to display all this information. I am also in talk with other wikia around the internet and with journalists too for the record, i really take this seriously :).

<p style="font-weight:normal;font-size:14px;">Have fun reading ! (P.S.: my main language is french, sorry for my bad english )

RE:
I'll keep that in mind. Thanks. Plus, GTA Online is usually chaotic with too many players causing more trouble whilst I was trying to get into an empty session (private sessions won't do since the game demands that CEO and MC work are for public sessions), particularly hackers running rampant on the PC which makes it difficult for me to earn money for more pricey vehicles and bikes. 06:25, October 27, 2016 (UTC)


 * Yeah. I tried getting to near-empty lobbies, though its by sheer luck since the game often redirects me to the same, chaotic sessions I didn't want. I'd need sheer luck by seeing loads of players being disconnected en masse leaving me by myself. I even tried with NetLimiter which is highly efficient but it soon expired on me leaving me to rely on sheer luck in hoping everyone gets disconnected (even tried finding Google to no avail). And believe me, I really refuse to spend on cash cards just to keep my in-game money going. I'll still try your methods but for now, I need to lay off of GTA V for the night and rest up and see if luck is on my side, including your said method.

Can't Edit Monk's Section Or Any Other Section
Hey Konan. I can't tell if it's a wiki problem or his talk page problem, but for some reason I can't edit the section regarding to the Insurgent's vehicle engine, nor any other of his sections. The "edit" thing next to the section header does not show up for me.

Your edits
Could you please try not to make so many different edits in the same page at the same time? I don't understand why don't you just make ONE edit that includes all your changes, instead of five or six separate minor edits to the same page. It disrupts the Recent Wiki Activity because sometimes all the recent edits are yours but only a few articles have been edited, and the rest are quickly "buried".

Again, I apologise for any inconvenience caused.

Bureaucrat
You might have worked it out already, but the reason I spent all evening showing you over the admin tools and such was because it was my plan to resign several days, knowing you'd be aware of how to use everything we've got, as I already know Sam is aware, so I was making sure you knew just in case.

Background
You'll be happy to hear I have fixed the background scrolling issue. <font size="4" face="Tahoma">Monk <font face="Tahoma">Talk 17:56, February 15, 2017 (UTC)


 * Basically it needed this code:

.WikiaSiteWrapper { background-size: cover; background-repeat: no-repeat; background-attachment: fixed; background-position: center; }

The fixed attachment stops it scrolling. I then centered that, stopped it from repeating (hopefully no one is using this or this monitor, and covered it across to avoid any background color showing. <font size="4" face="Tahoma">Monk <font face="Tahoma">Talk 18:14, February 15, 2017 (UTC)


 * On the vertical one you'll see dark gray (same color as the wiki's page background) stuff at the top and bottom of the screen, accounting for the monitor-size minus the ratio of the background (around 16:9), basically the picture won't stretch so it'll put the picture in the center of the screen and fill the dark gray around it. On the landscape one, the picture won't fill the entire screen so there'll probably be gray bits at the side. Basically anything that is drastically over or under 16:9 probably won't work as well. <font size="4" face="Tahoma">Monk <font face="Tahoma">Talk 18:27, February 15, 2017 (UTC)


 * MediaWiki:Wikia.css and MediaWiki:Common.css are the places to go for code. Wikia.css applies to the Oasis skin, while Common.css applies to all skins. Common typically doesn't work with certain things, most specific components (tabbers, tables, etc) go in Wikia.css.

Staff Vacancies
Hi Konan. Yes, of course I remember you. Congrats on becoming staff during my absence.

While I do miss the added tools of an Admin (and the ability to deal with vandals myself), I have not decided yet whether I want to participate at that level again. I know my foibles well and know I would struggle to curb my involvement to avoid burnout. I'm getting very intolerant in my middle-age, the "my way or the highway" criticism leveled at me in my absence is valid and hard for me to remedy. It takes more effort to be collaborative than I may be willing to devote at this time. While I have been "moderating" on the internet for nearly 20 years, I am now far less accepting of trolling than I used to be. :) <font size="4" color="#008000" face="Arial">Smurfy: <font size="1" face="Arial">illuminate - communicate - spectate 03:27, February 23, 2017 (UTC)
