 * Also, in case you are in need for an admin template, I made this.  supergeeky1  24 hour Darth hotline  19:05, 11 August 2007 (UTC)
 * I'm gonna work on it some more later. I made it the right size, but oddly enough, it doesn't center itself like Wookieepedia's does.  I'll look into it.  supergeeky1   24 hour Darth hotline  19:32, 11 August 2007 (UTC)

Just curious
I'm just curious, but why was Derek J. Reda deleted? The RC said personal attack, but how could it be a personal attack if the writer didn't even exist? :D Oh, but I do understand the Karen Traviss deletion, I figured that might happen anyway. supergeeky1    24-Hour Darth Hotline  15:01, 12 August 2007 (UTC)

Thanks
Thanks for adding the picture for my page Alaska! i think it's funny

Template preloads
I changed one minor thing with it yesterday, but that shouldn't effect anything. They're actually working for me, so I don't what to do about it. If I think of anything, I'll let you know. supergeeky1    24-Hour Darth Hotline  17:44, 14 August 2007 (UTC)

Damn, I really screwed up
I have good news and I have bad. Good news first: The bot is working. I found all I needed to do was create a seperate account. Bad news: I spelled the password incorrectly both times. Even more bad news: I didn't enter an email address so I can't get Wikia to retrieve the password. How I did that was beyond me. I didn't enter an email because I had no reason to think it was needed, as well as fear for Wikia thinking I was sockpuppeting, having the same email and all. I have tried many times to figure the password out, but I just can't get it. Unless I find a way to retrieve it, we'll need to come up with a new name, in which this time, I'll enter an email. Sorry about all of this, I really can't figure out how that happened. Anyway, I should be off and on a lot tomorrow, so I'll find out from you then. http://irc.wikia.com/irc/images/notsure.gif supergeeky1     24-Hour Darth Hotline  05:32, 17 August 2007 (UTC)

Main Image
Hey Gonk. Could you get me an image of your logo? I can't find it anywhere, and I'd like to nominate a userbox on Wookieepedia saying that "this user also contributes to Darthipedia". I'm planning to contribute here for a while too BTW, become a major editor here as well as Wookieepedia.  Chack Jadson  Talk 18:15, 22 August 2007 (UTC)

Thanks, I'm really glad you like it. I was working with some images and thought it might look cool to blend black with the current color. :D supergeeky1     24-Hour Darth Hotline  07:04, 28 August 2007 (UTC)

Council of Blood times
Thanks for adding the times to the Council of Blood page. I would have done it myself, but I have no clue about anything UTC, so thanks. :D supergeeky1     24-Hour Darth Hotline  18:18, 7 September 2007 (UTC)

FS
Hey, sorry I didn't get back to you sooner, I was away this weekend and just got back. Yes, I believe I can fix that very easily. I'll get on it right now. :D supergeeky1     24-Hour Darth Hotline  03:20, 17 September 2007 (UTC)

A Tasty Tidbit from Darth Nihilus
Image made. For use in articles/tutorials like the handbook, I created Template:TastyTidbit. Just type for the image to display on the left and  for the right. supergeeky1    24-Hour Darth Hotline  03:44, 20 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Okay, I uploaded the new version. I didn't shrink the image any, however I did enlarge the text that's outlined, which I had meant to do in the original version.  Because of this, I also did change the image from 150px to 120px on the template.  After trying it out, it appears to work alright, but if you still need it smaller, I'll do that too.  supergeeky1  [[Image:Burl_Ives.jpg|30px|The one and only, Burl Ives!]]   24-Hour Darth Hotline  01:44, 21 November 2007 (UTC)

Hi
Hi Gonk, I don't know if we've spoken before but i was wondering if darthipeida could possibly have something in the manual of style or equivilent (if we don't already have it) recommending or stating that stronger swearing such as S**t and F*ck could be crossed out like this S**t F*ck (would really not have *'s if used) or * out (editors choice as to which)

I you want we can discuss further, or if you don't feel we should add that please tell me thanks, Hunterj Hunterj's Palace 21:58, 12 December 2007 (UTC)

Monaco
Ah, yeah, there's several problems that need working out, most notably, the banner. It is a bit big. Additionally, for non-Firefox/AdBlock Plus users, the banner isn't even fully visible, being blocked by those damn Google ads. I'm gonna do my best to work out the bugs on everything today, but if I don't, everything should be working just fine by Saturday. Hopefully.... :-P supergeeky1     24-Hour Darth Hotline  21:39, 28 February 2008 (UTC)

 * The banner thing, I'm still working on, but links are now the correct colors. Report any other problems you find on my talk. :D  There's a few other color problems I should be able to work out tonight, so once I get those done, most of our monaco problems should be over.  supergeeky1  [[Image:Burl_Ives.jpg|30px|The one and only, Burl Ives!]]   24-Hour Darth Hotline  03:57, 2 March 2008 (UTC)

Request
I'm not exactly pleased with Category:Rapees, especially the addition of an article I created to it. Could this perhaps be rectified? Thanks. Graestan ( Talk ) 12:44, 7 April 2008 (UTC)

Monaco sidebar/header
Great, glad you like it. I have one minor issue with the sidebar which I hope resolve today. Other than that, I only have a few more things to fix for the Monaco skinning to be complete. supergeeky1    24-Hour Darth Hotline  15:31, 9 April 2008 (UTC)

My Lord
Almighty Gonk, I come before you as a servant humble and true, when I warn you of a foul and treacherous act commited by User: StarNinja99. This ingrate has blasphemed against you, claiming that ChanServ was God, when it is clear that you have lordship over this site. I beg that you bestow your just and powerful wrath onto this infidel.

Always faithful,

Main Page Transition
Hi Gonk!

My name is Nathan and I'm a wikia helper with the entertainment team. We're going around helping wikis transition to the new style of main page that will be necessary to support the upcoming ads. I've created a draft of an idea for your main page in order to show the basic layout. Optimally, we'd like to get all main pages rolled over to the format as soon as possible, so feel free to use mine, or improve upon it. If you have any questions you can reach me via my talk page.

Thanks!

Idea for new page
On Wookieepedia, there is an article labeled Dragon Squadron. It sounds like it is perfect for Darthipedia. Will you please make it?

Main Page
Hi Gonk!

Sorry about being unaware of the Protected page/Main Page policy around here, I would have definitely contacted you before any changes, had I known. Many thanks to Brother Mad Claw for showing me the light! Anyhoo, the order of the column tags need to be switched on the main page due to some upcoming coding changes, so the left column tags need to come before the right. I saw that it didn't work on one of the screen resolutions, would you like my help in fixing that, or did you guys want to fix it on your own?

I appreciate your understanding, and again apologize for violating local procedures. Let me know how I can help. :)

--Nathan (Peteparker) (Earth-1218) (talk &bull; contribs &bull; email) 12:53, 25 July 2008 (UTC)


 * Heh, I screwed up and put this on your user page at first, so sorry for that as well.


 * As an update, I'm attempting to instill the changes to the main page that need to happen on my draft page so that I don't affect yours negatively again. It also allows you guys to install the changes yourselves when you deem them ready.  At the moment, I can't figure out why it's pushing that right column so far down, but I'm sure I'll get it eventually.


 * Thanks for being cool about everything. :)

 * All done! Kirkburn stepped in and saved the day.  The draft is working and ready for whenever you guys want to switch the main page. :)

Okay, I'm here to celebrate Gonkipedia's first birthday, now where's the free drinks, and do you have a Death Star, some nuclear missiles or a mass PWN Generator I could borrow?

RE:
Heya Gonk. I apologize for that removal thing. I realize now that it could be easily perceived as harassment and for that, I deeply apologize. There is context to the situation, however, as noted in the IRC. I've tried to make it real clear to Jedi that I have no problems with him as a person, and while I joke around with him (sometimes too harshly), I still consider him to be a friend. As far as actually leaving that up there for others to see, I had no actual intent of keeping that up for longer than two minutes. It was just a joke between Madclaw, Pinky and I. I'll make sure to use better judgement over situations like this in the future and again, I stress my deepest apologies for any harm done. Cheers! &mdash;  supergeeky1   \ m  /  (  1-800-Burl-Ives  ) 21:22, 13 October 2008 (UTC)
