Renders

Stormeh, the new images were off the main page, which doesn't need a login, so technically, the NDA doesn't apply to them. At least that's what Kain said. ~ GI Auditore ^{Comms Channel} 07:22, October 14, 2013 (UTC)

You're saying that those high-quality images come from this picture on the log-in site? Stormbeast ♉ ^{The Helpful Place} 07:25, October 14, 2013 (UTC)

The Explore section, so yeah, no login required so no NDA applies. ~ GI Auditore ^{Comms Channel} 07:27, October 14, 2013 (UTC)

Huh...never noticed that. Carry on, my wayward son. Stormbeast ♉ ^{The Helpful Place} 07:29, October 14, 2013 (UTC)

Thankies :3 ~ GI Auditore ^{Comms Channel} 07:31, October 14, 2013 (UTC)

Changing AC3 category

Hi Storm,

Could you please edit Category:Assassin's Creed III for me, since it's protected (for some reason), by changing Category:Games to Category:Real world video games? Ta. --Jasca Ducato _{Council Chamber} ^{Assassination record} 09:50, October 21, 2013 (UTC)

It's locked for me too. Stormbeast ♉ ^{The Helpful Place} 14:31, October 21, 2013 (UTC)

Bah. No worries, ill post on Sima's talk page. --Jasca Ducato _{Council Chamber} ^{Assassination record} 01:00, October 22, 2013 (UTC)

Part 3

Due to my inablility to play the game, I am eagerly awaiting part three of Black Flag on da youtubes. Pls make it speedy for us viewers :] --Fragment ^-Animus- 04:18, November 3, 2013 (UTC)

I love how you and Kain give me crap about uploading the next part, like an hour or two after I upload another part xD Stormbeast ♉ ^{The Helpful Place} 18:18, November 4, 2013 (UTC)

FASTER, SCUM. FASTERRRRRRRRRR. /whip --Kainzorus Prime ^{Walkie-talkie} 18:48, November 4, 2013 (UTC)

Memory Seals in AC4

• Say what, now, where? I must have missed them... --Jasca Ducato _{Council Chamber} ^{Assassination record} 13:27, November 4, 2013 (UTC)

They're mentioned in one of the files you can hack in the modern day, along with other technology. Stormbeast ♉ ^{The Helpful Place} 18:05, November 4, 2013 (UTC)

Character images

Any chance you could grab a few screenshots of some of the characters that don't have infobox images yet? That way, people would stop uploading blurry YT shots. Capture card shots are better than YT images or nothing at all, and would be a good replacement till the PC version is out. ~ GI Auditore ^{Comms Channel} 12:35, November 5, 2013 (UTC)

What would you like me to grab? I can do it tonight, after work. Stormbeast ♉ ^{The Helpful Place} 15:58, November 5, 2013 (UTC)

Any characters that don't have renders that you're able to grab. A few modern day shots would be nice, like Garneau or Lemay, and past characters like Mary Read and Ah Tabai and the likes. It'd be great if you just looked out for screenshot opportunities as you play through :3 ~ GI Auditore ^{Comms Channel} 16:01, November 5, 2013 (UTC)

Hi storm I was very curious about how you got that AC-themed avatar because i'm wishing for one like thatMB543 (talk) 21:13, November 8, 2013 (UTC)MB543

Gabe does personalized avatars, including staff. You could ask him, but he might be busy at the moment. Stormbeast ♉ ^{The Helpful Place} 21:17, November 8, 2013 (UTC)

Okay does he do avatars for everyone but only for specific people? MB543 (talk) 21:56, November 8, 2013 (UTC)MB543

Return to Abstergo

Stormbeast, I am the original author of the article "Return to Abstergo". Would it be possible for me to participate in the revamp of the article, by adding some pictures, perhaps?

Postmanwho (talk) 09:40, November 10, 2013 (UTC)PostmanWhoPostmanwho (talk) 09:40, November 10, 2013 (UTC)

No.

Stormface, I'd rather you not revamp these quasi-memories of Desmond's field missions that the newb added. We have the Skyscrapper one already logged in 2012 conversations, and we could just move the dialogue from these over there. Otherwise we have to add pages for all the other modern day bits across the games, and those aren't really memories. --Kainzorus Prime ^{Walkie-talkie} 16:22, November 10, 2013 (UTC)

Stuck

Hi, i'm stuck. How do you add the tab coding (A.K.A tabber) onto your profile?

An easy way would be to copy the coding from my userpage and insert information about yourself in the place of my information. Stormbeast ♉ ^{The Helpful Place} 21:15, November 11, 2013 (UTC)

Ok, thanksMB543 (talk) 07:32, November 12, 2013 (UTC)MB543

Navboxes: Alphabetical v importance

Hi Storm,

I've put this matter up for discussion/vote on the this forum page, since it's something better suited to discussion there than over edit summaries. I would appreciate your input. --Jasca Ducato _{Council Chamber} ^{Assassination record} 09:25, November 12, 2013 (UTC)

Jenkins

Jenkins is an important character that should be added to the wiki. It would be great to keep his page on the website.ΦΣΩ 03:01, November 13, 2013 (UTC)

As of right now, he's an unnamed, randomly-generated character, who only appears in one memory. Unless I have the wrong guy, I fail to see his importance. Stormbeast ♉ ^{The Helpful Place} 03:03, November 13, 2013 (UTC)

Jenkins

In the level, if you check the script, the soldier calls the man Jenkins.

Modern times

Since I am done with my Modern times task, can you help me update it from time to time? Thanks...

Cheers,

AgentG231 (talk) 09:14, November 15, 2013 (UTC)

Yo. So you say no or yes? -- AgentG231 (talk) 09:58, November 20, 2013 (UTC)

Bro, since you're the one who's updating the Initiates, can you also update the Modern Times? -- AgentG231 (talk) 12:26, January 2, 2014 (UTC)

"He didn't kill him." - Isla Providencia

Did he not? Huh! Clearly that bypassed me. Thanks for the correction.

Molotov.cockroach (talk) 18:27, November 19, 2013 (UTC)

Just checking, but how far have you played? Stormbeast ♉ ^{The Helpful Place} 18:28, November 19, 2013 (UTC)

I've beaten it, actually. Am I about to be horribly embarrassed about what an obvious detail I missed?

Molotov.cockroach (talk) 18:32, November 19, 2013 (UTC)

Not really obvious. The prison memory has an optional objective to visit two "old friends". One being Vane. Stormbeast ♉ ^{The Helpful Place} 18:34, November 19, 2013 (UTC)

Ooooh, got it. Yeah, that was one of the few objectives I willfully bypassed the first time around--I was getting to Mary and Anne and no guard or optional content was going to slow me down. I'll have to give that mission a replay.

Molotov.cockroach (talk) 19:08, November 19, 2013 (UTC)

sorry?

i was getting some food my friend must have trolled yu all. very sorry...Samkenway1 (talk) 17:15, November 22, 2013 (UTC)

No it's not. --Jasca Ducato _{Council Chamber} ^{Assassination record} 17:33, November 22, 2013 (UTC)

Reason?

Could you please explain why you reverted my edit?
The information I added was true and it was not a bad addition — Magasztos (talk) 20:25, November 22, 2013 (UTC)

The information was unnecessary. It's already stated twice that his DOB is unknown. The trivia point is just mentioning his historical DOD. Also, your edit added duplicate categories. Stormbeast ♉ ^{The Helpful Place} 20:31, November 22, 2013 (UTC)

Thank you, although I do not remember anything about categories.
Thanks again for explaining, I will learn from this. — Magasztos (talk) 20:38, November 22, 2013 (UTC)

Optional objectives

Whereas the remaining undetected is given as an optional objective in some of the assassination contracts, it is not actually necessary for 100% synch. Just thought you should know. Nesty ^{Contact me!} 06:36, December 2, 2013 (UTC)

Aye, aye, ma'am. Stormbeast ♉ ^{The Helpful Place} 04:56, December 3, 2013 (UTC)

All I have to say is...

MB... MB big time. Thanks for cleaning that up, Storm. *facepalm* I... I think I'm going to go to bed and go inactive for another month... *signs off in shame* nucl3arsnake (talk) 04:53, December 3, 2013 (UTC)

There's no need for a hiatus over something silly like that. Easy to clean up, lickety-split. I made sure to check over the entire edit instead of getting too trigger-happy with the rollback button. Stormbeast ♉ ^{The Helpful Place} 04:56, December 3, 2013 (UTC)

Sentences

Storm, "Ezio Auditore (subject), watching (verb) the history of humanity." is a sentence. The fact that it is also an image caption is inconsequential to the fact that it is a sentence. Granted, it should probably be changed to "Ezio Auditore watches the history of humanity." (which is still a sentence) but that's another point entirely. The Wiki agreed that captions should only have full stops when grammatically correct (i.e. at the end of a sentence), so what's the problem? --Jasca Ducato (talk | contributions) 20:14, December 3, 2013 (UTC)

So you're going to change 98% of our image captions? Because that's how most of them are structured. Stormbeast ♉ ^{The Helpful Place} 20:15, December 3, 2013 (UTC)

Hello!

Can you pleae make a category called Assassin's Creed Development team. Thanks.

Raghava Shah 01:24, December 4, 2013 (UTC)

You know that we already have a development team category right? nucl3arsnake (talk) 01:29, December 4, 2013 (UTC)

Psst, Nuke, generally dont snag messages off of other peoples talk pages...it's kind of like taking mail from your neighbor...but yes there already is that category, and even more, Category:Assassin's Creed development team --Fragment ^-Animus- 01:31, December 4, 2013 (UTC)

I meant Assassins Creeed Brahman Development team.... I feel REALLY stupid. Raghava Shah 01:52, December 4, 2013 (UTC)

Ah, okay. Well, if that category hasn't already been created, you can go ahead and make it yourself. nucl3arsnake (talk) 01:54, December 4, 2013 (UTC)

How might you do that? Raghava Shah 01:58, December 4, 2013 (UTC)

Go to the link Frag just posted on your talk page, and hit the "Create" button at the top. nucl3arsnake (talk) 01:59, December 4, 2013 (UTC)

The dates are taken from Forsaken and the dates of actual historical events, such as when Bartholomew Roberts became a captain on 19 June 1719. As for Oiá:ner, the AC3 database says that Kaniethi:ío was the daughter of the Clan mother.--188.180.174.234 15:29, December 15, 2013 (UTC)

Email

Hi there Stormbeast -- sent you an e-mail yesterday. If you have a moment, please do get back to me. Thanks! Cooksey.michael (talk) 17:37, December 17, 2013 (UTC)

Hey Micheal. Sorry I haven't checked my email lately; been busy studying for finals. I'll look over your proposal and get back to you in the next few days. Stormbeast ♉ ^{The Helpful Place} 17:43, December 17, 2013 (UTC)

Thanks, Stormbeast -- no worries, and good luck on your finals! Get in touch when you can. Cooksey.michael (talk) 17:51, December 17, 2013 (UTC)

Ah, I see what you mean. I was confused when Kain used the term "OOU" instead.<theproclamation> (talk) 19:01, December 19, 2013 (UTC)

Duplicate

Thanks for cutting out the white background on my adewale image, but it would be better if you'd merge your version of the image with my version so people don't get confused about duplicates. MB543 (talk) 15:52, December 20, 2013 (UTC)MB543

And also make the image bigger when you merge it with mine. MB543 (talk) 16:00, December 20, 2013 (UTC)MB543

I tried updating your image, but it would only work in PNG format, not JPG; there will be no merge. If you want to use my image, you just have to change the file in your page from .jpg to .png. Also, I can't do anything about the size, because it works with the size you started with. Stormbeast ♉ ^{The Helpful Place} 17:18, December 20, 2013 (UTC)

I can't change the file, can't you just set your version as jpg then merge it? MB543 (talk) 18:39, December 20, 2013 (UTC)MB543

No, I cannot. When I uploaded the rendered version in JPG, it saves the background for some reason. The only way it works for me is to upload in PNG. Stormbeast ♉ ^{The Helpful Place} 18:41, December 20, 2013 (UTC)

How did you remove the background? MB543 (talk) 19:11, December 20, 2013 (UTC)MB543

What do you mean the category "AC3 Libertaion locations" is out of universe? Raghava Shah 05:10, December 29, 2013 (UTC)

We are currently switching to an in-universe category system. For this example, any category labelled "Assassin's Creed X locations" should be removed and replaced with an in-universe category, like Mexico. Stormbeast ♉ ^{The Helpful Place} 05:15, December 29, 2013 (UTC)

Oh, I was basing my edits on the San Danje and New Orleans articles so you should remove the location category from them too.  Raghava Shah 05:19, December 29, 2013 (UTC)

Original research

CAn you possibly stop being an ass hat and undoing hours of research I'm doing to help contextualize the game? thanks —unsigned comment by Swampfox21 (talk · contr)

If you would bother reading the policies, you'd notice why I'm reverting all your edits. Also, please sign your posts, and watch your attitude. Stormbeast ♉ ^{The Helpful Place} 09:34, December 30, 2013 (UTC)

To quote our Sourcing policy:

"All information on an article must be attributed to a reliable source, and any material added to articles must be explicitly presented in said source." (src)

In the context of the policy, a "reliable source" is classed as information that is "published or endorsed by Ubisoft, and relate explicitly to the Assassin's Creed series." Simply put, this means that 'real-world' information has no place in our articles, unless it is referred to in published AC material. --Jasca Ducato (talk | contributions) 14:16, December 30, 2013 (UTC)

Apprentices

Hey I saw your summary on the reason for deleting the catagory well here's a list.

1. They did guard Tulum and it's landmarks on Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag.

2. They guarded the fortress on Masyaf in Assassin's Creed (1)

That's all I got hope you read this.

Ironspider54 (talk) 04:01, January 9, 2014 (UTC) Ironspider54

You're saying that Apprentices guarded Tulum and Masyaf. We have no way of knowing what rank the Assassins who were guarding these areas were. One would presume they were fully-fledged Assassins. Stormbeast ♉ ^{The Helpful Place} 04:07, January 9, 2014 (UTC)

Sorry about the catagory mess up I'm new to wiki and not that good with laptops sorry. Ironspider54 (talk) 04:51, January 9, 2014 (UTC) Ironspider54

Fort Independence

May I ask why you are deleting my trivia addition to the Fort Independence article? —unsigned comment by Agrable2 (talk · contr)

The trivia is speculative, at best. We don't usually add trivial information like that. There's also the matter of you messing up the code on the page. Stormbeast ♉ ^{The Helpful Place} 06:35, February 6, 2014 (UTC)

OOU category?

Could you explain your reason for reverting my addition to Eseosa's Codex, and the abbreviation OOU? I would like to here your reasoning behind your decision and I would like to avoid edit war.--FossilLord 19:58, February 8, 2014 (UTC)

The category you added Category:Assassin's Creed: Initiates was out-of-universe, meaning it doesn't belong on an in-universe article such as Eseosa's Codex. Stormbeast ♉ ^{The Helpful Place} 22:48, February 8, 2014 (UTC)

Fair enough explanation but since it was found on the site itself shouldn't it be added to the pull down menu thing that we find at the bottom of initiates pages?--FossilLord 21:36, February 9, 2014 (UTC)

If you're talking about the Initiates navbox, there'd be no place for it. Initiates, as well as its navbox, mostly focuses on present-day events. Eseosa's Codex is clearly written in the 18th/19th century. Stormbeast ♉ ^{The Helpful Place} 02:40, February 10, 2014 (UTC)
