Oblivion Soldier Pages Merge

Lately I have created a page for each Soldier involved in the Allies for Bruma and Defense of Bruma quests. These pages basically have the same information and now that they're up, I don't see any point in keeping them separate. After merging them, the differring data would be the statistics, the images and the town-specific information (which Count/Countess sends them to Bruma). I'd place a tag onto these articles but the template doesn't allow multiple links. Would this be appropriate? --Matthewest   06:42, 16 April 2009 (EDT)

: After discussion with Game Lord on the IRC, he has edited the Merge template to allow up to 5 links in it. I will proceed with adding the template to each of these articles. --Matthewest   06:50, 16 April 2009 (EDT)

:: I'd agree to this merge. The information on each article is pretty much identical, so we might as well put them all together. - Game Lord  15:39, 16 April 2009 (EDT)

 
 

Calender

I am proposing that the community portal creates an oblivion calender, e.g months, days, years, and so on, and will be easier to play that way  

: Err... what? If you're looking for information on the calendar used in the game, see this page, and if you're looking for history, see this page and the other history pages. If it's neither of those... can you rephrase your statement / question please? –Rpeh  04:44, 6 June 2009 (EDT)

::Ok, sorry, i spealt it wrong, thats what i wanted, thanks  

Userbox Template Change

I was thinking it would be nice to be able to customize the   userbox to indicate how frequently you visit.  I've played around and it seems to be working, but my familiarity with templates is extremely limited (this is my second ever).  Would someone with more template experience please have a look at User:RobinHood70/Sandbox1 (the template itself) and User: Sandbox2 (examples) and see if everything looks okay before I replace the existing template with my changes?

While I was there, I also forced the image to 45px to ensure alignment with other Userboxes in the event of image changes...a problem I first learned of on the   template. ;)

In light of those changes, I also added usage instructions in the     section. --Robin Hood (Talk • E-mail • Contribs) 03:22, 7 June 2009 (EDT)

:I just think you need to be on IRC more often, and not finding excuses. ;)
:I wouldn't mind some customisation to the Userbox. It's backwards compatible so existing users of it are not affected. The problem I see, though, is that people who fill in "never", still appear in the Users Who Frequent the IRC chatroom category. --Timenn  &lt;   &gt;   16:59, 14 June 2009 (EDT)
::You had to go and make my life hard, didn't you?  Suggestions for overcoming this?  I mean, I could just put a check in for "never", but then they might fill in someting like "doesn't even know what IRC is and never" or something dumb like that.  Should I put in some kind of a switch statement to limit the responses to just a few, maybe? --Robin Hood (Talk • E-mail • Contribs) 19:31, 14 June 2009 (EDT)

Sheer Brilliance

When UESPwiki was down for a couple days...I distinctly noticed that it was really hard to play Oblivion without checking about quests, NPC's and bugs in general. I physically couldn't play without UESPwiki, and for that... I salute you all who have contributed to this...which has basically let me play Oblivion to the fullest.  -Theman100 08:21, 9 July 2009 (UTC)
:Thanks. However, please read the notices on the tops of pages. I had to move this. –Elliot  08:36, 9 July 2009 (UTC)
 
Community Fangame

I was thinking of a Fangame made by the community. I'm great at making 2D games and can make a game that uses both first person and third person gameplay. theg721

: OK, I've come up with this. theg721

: Err.. Ideas? Suggestions? Anything? Anyone?  

::I don't even understand the point... why would we need it? --Elliot  11:12, 12 July 2009 (UTC)

:::"Eddie are you ok, eddie are you ok, You've been hit my *Bang Bang* A smooth theg" Oh, right. Err.. How am I supposed to know? Some othere site did it, why can't w-"Eddie are you ok.." theg721

:::: Well... it's "Annie are you okay", not Eddie. The thing is, I don't think anybody (including me) understands what you mean by a Fangame, or what relevance the graphic you made has to it. Could you explain more clearly? –rpeh  16:14, 15 July 2009 (UTC)

:::: Fangame 1. a game made by fans of a particular thing, or, if that thing is a game or video game, a remake of that game. As this site is about the whole of TES, it might be remakes off all the Elder Scrolls Games in one. theg721
