User talk:TOR

Hello
From admin to admin, I'd like to say hello. I hear you're the "tech guy" (not my words) that helped us facilitate the move. I'd assume that you've got admin (and more) privileges, especially that you'll be helping people rename their userpages. Welcome to our community ^^

Before the move, we had only 3 actual admins (now 4 that I've been promoted from Jr to full sysop), so it's a bit strange for me to see others editing MediaWiki pages and whatnot. Just so I'm not completely confused by all these new faces, do you have a list of all the new sysops on your side that will be helping us with the site? It's been just Ganiman, Mierin, Gahoo and I for so long that new faces are a bit surprising. -- 21:12, 19 September 2007 (EDT)


 * Hi. You can see all the people with staff access here at Special:Listusers/staff, most of those won't be around here though.  There is a page with more info on us all at http://www.wikia.com/wiki/Wikia_staff].  The ones you are most likely to see are the Community Team, TOR, Angie (our gaming goddess), and maybe a passing tech doing a specific job.


 * There is also one "janitor" so far, User:GHe. He may delete a piece of spam or two, but otherwise probably won't be seen here. (A Janitor is a contributor with extra access on all Wikia wikis - they are expected to defer to local admins, the are just around to help with global cleaning up and helping)


 * Hope that helps! Maybe you could build a page to explain this to people?  Thanks -- sannse (talk) 18:14, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

Can I somehow get my old username back?
I'm very attached to "Itazura", and rather not have "FFXI-" in front of it; may I please have my name back? --FFXI-Itazura 04:06, 20 September 2007 (EDT)
 * I'm sorry, that name is taken on Wikia. But you can have any variation on it... how about ItaZura, Itazura-, or *Itazura* ?  You can still adapt your signature to show the previous name, it's only the automated parts that would show the variation. -- sannse (talk) 19:04, 20 September 2007 (UTC)
 * That sucks. -_-  Ifrit no Itazura, then, if possible.  Of course, if you can rename the other guy, and let me have my "Itazura" back, that'd be even better...   (Is that other guy an active contributor?)  --FFXI-Itazura 22:36, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

Username Conflict
Since the username Sigma seems to exist on wikia, would it be possible to change mine to "Eithin"? --FFXI-Sigma 05:49, 20 September 2007 (EDT)


 * "Eithin" is available. TOR will note here when it's done -- sannse (talk) 17:56, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

Broken Items
The Category:Limbus link has database errors. Bajoyasujoya 13:20, 20 September 2007 (UTC)


 * Works fine for me, fyi. -- 13:22, 20 September 2007 (UTC)


 * I see as OK too.  Can you give more information?  What is the error message? What URL are you on when you see it?  Where on the page is it?  What browser do you use and are you logged in or out?  Thanks! -- sannse (talk) 19:06, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

Username
IUser:Nynaeve is one of the users with the FFXI- prefix, well, both of them FFXI- and FFXI-FFXI-. She can't login to any of these and was wondering if her name, user and user subpages could be changed to User:Birgitte, which I was unable to find in the central wikia userlist, so I'm thinking that it's free to use? :)

She would like the password and e-mail to remain the same. If Birgitte is taken the next option is Egwene, then Faile. -- 23:16, 19 September 2007 (UTC)


 * yep, "Birgitte" is available. TOR will note here when it's done -- sannse (talk) 17:56, 20 September 2007 (UTC)


 * Was able to log onto FFXI-Nynaeve finally but I would still like to move everything to User:Birgitte provided my contributions and Subpages can go with it. Really don't want to lose everything. -- 23:25, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

Youtube
Can you please take a look at the problem we are having with the youtube videos. I have updated the links with the new coding ( code ) for about 30 + videos in category:videos section. Most of the earlier ones i edited worked just fine. About the past 20 or so do not work. I have reported a software bug for all of them.

Should i continue to edit them with the new code? Or give you time to fix it? Thanks in advance--Spops 16:58, 20 September 2007 (UTC)


 * Thanks Spops. I can see you have the right code, looks like there is a problem in pulling videos over here from YouTube. TOR will have a look as soon as he can, might as well hold off on the editing until then.  Thanks -- sannse (talk) 19:23, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

New Message Indicator
Will occasionally appear in Japanese, linking to a URL that doesn't exist. -- 17:11, 20 September 2007 (UTC)


 * Now that has to be the strangest bug so far! Please can you copy the URL next time you see it?  Thanks -- sannse (talk) 17:56, 20 September 2007 (UTC)


 * Someone already did in the forums but i will post it here for you to see: It says: "You have new messages on 太空戰士 XI 網路版, ffxi"--Spops 18:06, 20 September 2007 (UTC)


 * I think she wants the URL that the Japaneses text links to. I should note that the bit in Japanese is one link (which does not work), and the "ffxi" afterwards is a separate link, which links directly to your talk page (though the name wouldn't indicate this).  This problem has happened to me as well, and it's only a mild annoyance, as you can refresh the page and it will revert to English.  I'll try to get the URL if it happens again to me and someone else hasn't beat me to the punch.  -- 18:14, 20 September 2007 (UTC)


 * Thanks both, I got it too. The Japanese text is gone now, but there are still two links (one broken).  TOR will look -- sannse (talk) 19:24, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

Forum page regarding problems
Not sure if you saw this yet but I have made a forum thread to report most problems to. The thread can be found here: http://forums.ffxiclopedia.org/viewtopic.php?t=6528&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=0  Please take a look at it when you can. Thanks --Spops 18:10, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

Cool, we'll look there too -- sannse (talk) 19:26, 20 September 2007 (UTC)


 * No problem, thanks for all of the help so far-- 20:31, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

Test edit
Hi TOR -- sannse (talk) 18:58, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

Firefox problem with "Auto-Translator: In-Depth"
Auto-Translator: In-Depth won't finish rendering/loading on Firefox 2.0.0.7. I use that page frequently before the move to Wikia, so it used to work (at least with Firefox 2.0.0.6). OS is Mac OS X 10.3.9, and Safari 1.3.2 (v312.6) works with that page, but I would prefer to use Firefox if possible... --FFXI-Itazura 23:25, 20 September 2007 (UTC)
