Archiving
Hey Sam, so earlier you removed the talk page content stating you was going to archive it, yet it doesn't appear you archived it, only deleted it. Are you aware? :) &bull;  &bull;  23:00, October 27, 2015 (UTC)

Thank you for making it ambiguous as it rightfully should be. I would have put that myself but that would have been to extreme a change for a novice such as myself.

GTA: San Andreas question
Hello Sam, I have a quick question for you, if you do not mind: do you know whether the trailer in the Angel Pine Mobile Home Park where CJ drops off the photographic evidence in the mission Badlands in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas is the Angel Pine Save Point?

TAlim 1994 - Konan T-A Lim ( talk  |  contributions ) 22:27, October 30, 2015 (UTC)

Thank you for answering my question so quickly. I would check myself, but I do not own a copy of GTA: San Andreas myself, as I never really enjoyed it due to the bad language. Anyway, I needed that information because I am editing an article which requires it.

TAlim 1994 - Konan T-A Lim ( talk  |  contributions ) 22:34, October 30, 2015 (UTC)

I did actually check videos before contacting you, but none proved definitively to my mind that the trailer was the Save Point, so I decided to contact you for a second opinion on the matter.

TAlim 1994 - Konan T-A Lim ( talk  |  contributions ) 22:40, October 30, 2015 (UTC)

Thank you for the advice. The walkthrough by "GTA Series Videos" was actually also the video that I used as reference, and which I used to acquire a screenshot for this new page that I created, due to its convenient placement on the Badlands page. However, like I said, I was still unsure after reviewing the video, hence my question. Well, you know the saying: "two heads are better than one"!

TAlim 1994 - Konan T-A Lim ( talk  |  contributions ) 22:55, October 30, 2015 (UTC)

Exactly. Anyway, thank you once again for your help. Have a good day.

Enhaced version category
Hey Sam, I found this category which lists all content featured only for the enhaced version of GTA V. My intention is to add it to all articles tagged with the   template, specially for those content released with Freemode Events Update, GTA Online: Lowriders and now the Halloween Surprise. I'm not sure if this is the correct purpose of the category though, so I'd like to hear your opinion about it. Thegtaseeker96 (talk) 19:56, October 31, 2015 (UTC)
 * Ok I'll be adding the category then. Just another question: wouldn't "Exclusive Enhaced Version Content in GTA V" be a more suitable name to avoid any confusions between what is "next-gen", "old-gen" or "current-gen"? Thegtaseeker96 (talk) 20:13, October 31, 2015 (UTC)


 * (Butting in) Unfortunately categories cannot be renamed, so you'd have to remove the category from all the pages, delete the category, and create a new one. I know, it's a pain :/ Monkeypolice188-Signature-2.png &bull; Monkeypolice188-Signature-4.png &bull; Monkeypolice188-Signature-3.png 20:37, October 31, 2015 (UTC)


 * Hey Monk! There's also a similar category for vehicles only, but I don't know if it was deleted or not (that's a bug probably). Anyways, it would be interesting to list in a category. What do you think? Thegtaseeker96 (talk) 20:47, October 31, 2015 (UTC)


 * It was deleted, it's just the remaining articles within it have not been removed from the category. I'll remove them now. *Final Countdown - Europe plays* xD Monkeypolice188-Signature-2.png &bull; Monkeypolice188-Signature-4.png &bull; Monkeypolice188-Signature-3.png 21:05, October 31, 2015 (UTC)

Media Policy violation
Good day Sam. Much as I do not particularly like issuing disciplinary action on someone whom I consider to be one of my "Friends and/or Helpful Users", "Jiralhanae117" has now violated the Media Policy for the third time, and under normal circumstances he would be issued with a block. I will leave it up to you to decide, but personally I would give him one last chance.

TAlim 1994<font face="Segoe Script" color="Ghostwhite"> - Konan T-A Lim ( talk  |  contributions ) 03:24, December 2, 2015 (UTC)

Thank you, I will let him know.

By the way, I have discovered how to make signatures work with the "ImageLicence", "Warning" and "Block" templates: when customizing the signature from the "Preferences" page, ensure that any symbols that can be used as wikitext but that are not intended as wikitext (such as the pipe symbol ("|") between the "talk" and "contributions" links in my signature) have the  and   tags around them (see my own current signature for an example); this will prevent unintended effects when the signature is used in a template.

TAlim 1994<font face="Segoe Script" color="Ghostwhite"> - Konan T-A Lim ( talk  |  contributions ) 20:28, December 2, 2015 (UTC)

Unnecessary template?
Good day Sam, I feel that this template should be considered for deletion, since we already have a more widely used "Block" template. Please tell me what you think, and if you disagree, feel free to discuss it on the Talk page and/or remove the "Prod" template from the page.

TAlim 1994<font face="Segoe Script" color="Ghostwhite"> - Konan T-A Lim ( talk  |  contributions ) 02:45, December 4, 2015 (UTC)

Leicester

Stop it. Stop it. Just stop! If you beat Man City next week, the only thing stopping Leicester is a trip to the Emirates in February. Title decider lol.

I hear that taxi for Jose may come back for van Gaal. I'm not laughing about Mourinho. (I may have lied) Leo68 (talk) 21:59, December 19, 2015 (UTC)

I think Leicester will get top four, but the likes of City and Arsenal will stop them. Arsenal play City on Monday and is shaping up to be a great game. It's Arsenal's this year, you heard it here first. Champions League could attract big players to Leicester though. Chelsea won't make Europe. I don't see them going down, but they could just scrape through. Leo68 (talk) 22:42, December 19, 2015 (UTC)

I'd love to see Chelsea go down, but I don't see it. They'll fend off the teams that look like they'll go down (Sunderland, Villa, Norwich etc.) but as for Arsenal vs Leicester for the title (never thought I'd say that this season), you're right, way too open, but most people are saying that it's Arsenal's best chance to win it.

TAlim 1994<font face="Segoe Script" color="Ghostwhite"> - Konan T-A Lim ( talk  |  contributions ) 18:15, December 21, 2015 (UTC)

I see. In that case, you might wish to also rename the third, fifth and sixth images, since they were also renamed incorrectly by you. Also, you spelled "sheriff" incorrectly in both the images of LSSD deputies; there is only one "r". Perhaps you should simply copy and paste the suggested names in the "Move" templates that I add in the future, as I rarely, if ever, suggest a bad name. Thank you.

User licensing question
Hello again Sam, and apologies for my lengthy hiatus. I have an issue with licensing that I am hoping that you can help me with. This user has uploaded two images without licenses: one of the flag of Finland, and the other a map with Finland highlighted in red. I am aware that there is a specific license template for images of flags, but I also notice that it cannot be applied directly when uploading an image, and so might easily be missed be users not familiar with templates; as for the map image, it should have been released with a "Public Domain" license. Do you think that I should issue this user with an official reminder, or should I let it slide this time?

TAlim 1994<font face="Segoe Script" color="Ghostwhite"> - Konan T-A Lim ( talk  |  contributions ) 15:43, January 19, 2016 (UTC)

Bad image names

I have a further two images that have bad names. I have a strong suspicion that the first one is a modification, as CJ is clearly standing outside Ricardo Diaz's mansion/Vercetti Estate from Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, and furthermore it was posted by a user who was blocked by you for publishing false information, so I recommend its deletion. As for the second image, I do not know what to name it, so I will let you use your own creativity to come up with a appropriate name.

Indeed. I must say that it is rather strange that some go to such lengths to prove a point that 99.9999% (or more) of Grand Theft Auto players know to not be canon, including posting a modified image.

Well, while it's civil, good luck. If you lose you're still two points ahead, if you win, I hope Leicester win the league this year, if Arsenal don't. Leo68 (talk) 11:13, February 14, 2016 (UTC)

Wow, what a finish. Shame for Leicester, Danny Simpson was a bit idiotic to get sent off when you're a goal up, but you're still top and very much in the title race. City can do us both a favour by beating Spurs later. Leo68 (talk) 14:12, February 14, 2016 (UTC)

Page renaming
Hello Sam, the "Safehouses in Grand Theft Auto: Advance" page badly needs to be renamed to "Safehouses in GTA Advance". I am frankly astounded that the page has had its current name for more than a year, as it obviously does not conform with other safehouse articles.

Navbox template appearance
Good day Sam, I just wish to ask you to verify the appearance of this Navbox template, as I wish to make sure that it appears properly on other computers. I have already spent a significant amount of time making the template, so I sincerely hope that I do not need to spend any more time on it.

TAlim 1994<font face="Segoe Script" color="Ghostwhite"> - Konan T-A Lim ( talk  |  contributions ) 12:18, February 24, 2016 (UTC)


 * Thank you. I am glad to hear that the Navbox looks good, as I must have spent six hours working on it in total, due primarily to the repetitive code for the flag images, which I needed to enter and re-enter several times - which still took some time, even though I copied and pasted the majority of the code to save time - and also the fact that I needed to insert the template into 45 pages.

Hello Sam, could you please temporarily unprotect all the license templates related to Grand Theft Auto screenshots? I have updated the "Screenshot" template, and I wish to apply the template to all license templates to normalize the wording and format of them.

Football
I seriously hope your team ends up with the Premiership title. It's their to lose now. It makes a change from the usual suspects and would be nice to see Leicester and Tottenham end up as the top two teams in the league. I think my team has the league wrapped up already. We are on an insane 38 game unbeaten run :) Messi1983 (talk) 14:17, March 17, 2016 (UTC)


 * You guys deserve it if you win it. I cannot see Arsenal winning it and if Leicester don't then Spurs will. It will be nice to see you in the Champions League next season. You have a good manager and great team chemistry. We never got out of second gear against Arsenal and just went through the motions in both games. I hope we get City next in the CL.

Good day. I apologise if this comes across as impolite, but I have made a proposal on the Community Noticeboard that has (as of the sending of this message) been running for over a week, and has so far only received three votes (four if one were to count myself). I am anxious to have the vote closed so that I will know if I should or should not implement the proposed changes. Could all Staff members please vote on my proposal? Thank you.

P.S.: I apologise if you have already voted, as I have sent this message to all Staff members.

Roman's Child and Niko Bellic
Can you please tell me why you reverted the edits back that I made on these pages? There is no way the unborn child would be Niko's nephew/niece because Niko and Roman are not brothers. Since they are cousins, I think the child and Niko would be first cousins once removed instead. It just bugged me that the information was incorrect so i edited it and then i felt happier. Of course some admin always comes and deletes my edits. Now no disrespect to you or anything but why did it get reverted back?? :( Please answer as soon as possible.

Is it okay to upload pictures with watermarks labeled across them? This user is uploading images on the Bohan page and some of those images contain watermarks belonging to WikiGTA  (here and here). It doesn't really say anything regarding to image waterarks in the media policy (the videos do), but, umm, it falls under "copyrighted images" or "image ownership" spectrum, right?

Request for Promotion
Good day, I have made a Request for Promotion to the position of Administrator. I have left this message to all GTA Wiki Staff and posted a copy of my application below for convenience. Please note that the timestamp on this message is current at the time of posting this message, not at the time of posting the Request for Promotion.

P.S.: I apologize if you have already responded on the Requests for Promotion page; this message was sent to all members of the GTA Wiki Staff, regardless of if they have already voted.

TAlim 1994 - Administrator (re-application)
Good day, I am once again applying for the position of Administrator following my former contender's (Ricardo) decision to resign from his post. My reasons for requiring this position are the same as my last request: as I primarily enforce the Media Policy, having administrative powers will allow me to correct bad image names and/or delete images without needing to consult someone else every time. Please vote as you see fit. Thank you for your time.

 * Yes, I understand your point now. Just out of curiosity, would you regard the Final Fantasy Wiki (which I mentioned in my Community Noticeboard reply to your comment) as a low-usage wiki?
 * TAlim 1994<font face="Segoe Script" color="Ghostwhite"> - Konan T-A Lim ( talk  |  contributions ) 16:28, May 23, 2016 (UTC)

 * By the way, may I ask your theory as to why the Final Fantasy Wiki allows any user to move or rename pages? They must get at least as much activity - if not more - than we do here on the GTA Wiki.
 * TAlim 1994<font face="Segoe Script" color="Ghostwhite"> - Konan T-A Lim ( talk  |  contributions ) 16:39, May 23, 2016 (UTC)


 * Apologies for the very late response; I logged out of my account to test whether it was possible to edit pages without being logged in, and then realized that I could not remember my password. I only just managed to recall it as I send this message. Anyway, you are correct that it is not possible to edit from an IP address. Thank you for your thoughts.

West Coast Classics
I continuously edit the year "You Know How We Do It" by Ice Cube to 1994 because that is the year the song was released. Yes, it was RECORDED in 1993 but was RELEASED in 1994 FOR the year 1994.

All of the songs on the playlist go by the years they were released, NOT recorded. DJ Pooh himself even confirmed it himself on the station; the link that directs you to the song also confirmed this statement as well, so rightfully my edit to 1994 is correct and should not be re-edited any further.

You were the last person to edit it back to 1993 and you need to change it back to 1994.

Donald Love
Yo, I was looking up this character Donald Love because I wanted to add something to trivia. While in editing mode, I noticed that it said in the character infobox that Donald Love was 27 in 1986. That would mean he was born in 1959. I added that but you edited it out. That's okay, not all my edits are correct but it said so in the infobox so if what j wrote is wrong, change the infobox. Have a nice day -AngryNerdInc

Regarding Jamal
Good day Sam, may I ask why Jamal resigned/was demoted? I have been unable to find any information regarding why he is no longer a Bureaucrat.

P.S.: I apologise for my recent inactivity, I have had an unfortunate couple of days with my Xbox LIVE accounts.

TAlim 1994<font face="Segoe Script" color="Ghostwhite"> - Konan T-A Lim ( talk  |  contributions ) 23:36, June 6, 2016 (UTC)


 * I see. That is fair enough. By the way, the GTA Wiki Staff World Locations map badly needs updating, as several Staff have been promoted, demoted, or have resigned since the 10th of March 2016 (the date when the map was last updated). I would do it myself, but I do not know what fonts were used to create the map, so it is best if the creators (either Monk or Marcus) did this. Just to confirm, was Jamal officially demoted, or did he resign?
 * TAlim 1994<font face="Segoe Script" color="Ghostwhite"> - Konan T-A Lim ( talk  |  contributions ) 23:53, June 6, 2016 (UTC)


 * I see. Since it was mutual, I was going to put him down as "resigned" on the "Former staff" section of the Staff page, but it seems that you have already put him down as "demoted". With regards to the map, I had better send Monk a personal message about it, in case he has not noticed the problem.

 * TAlim 1994<font face="Segoe Script" color="Ghostwhite"> - Konan T-A Lim ( talk  |  contributions ) 16:42, June 14, 2016 (UTC)

Regarding links
Good day Sam, I noticed that you removed links that I added to the Snail Trail article, which you regarded as overlinking. Generally, I follow this rule when adding links: one link on the first instance of a keyword per main heading. The links that you removed as overlinking followed this rule. Is this a good rule to follow? If not, what rule do you suggest?

TAlim 1994<font face="Segoe Script" color="Ghostwhite"> - Konan T-A Lim 林道安 ( talk  |  contributions ) 06:21, July 17, 2016 (UTC)


 * Your point is noted. I must admit that I am considerably more conservative about links when I add them to Wikipedia articles, having been indirectly reprimanded in a Wikipedia edit summary for making that mistake once (I edit from an IP address on Wikipedia, since I rarely edit there because spelling and grammar there is almost always correct, and I do not currently have any specialist article knowledge), but this is the first time that I have been reprimanded (by you, indirectly as well) for overlinking on the GTA Wiki. I think that I will research Wikipedia's linking policy and follow it here as well, since you obviously do the same.
