Images

Please note that you need to source any and all images you upload to the wiki in accordance to our image and sourcing policy. For more information on how to source images, check this page. Thanks. Nesty ^{Contact me!} 07:03, March 23, 2012 (UTC)

You failed to source File:Those who came before.jpg. Please fix that. --Jasca Ducato _{Council Chamber} ^{Assassination record} 07:48, April 27, 2012 (UTC)

It's a screenshot of the Abstergo Dossiers, so the only source I could give would be: "Assassin's Creed: Revelations" Arcemz 09:47, April 27, 2012 (UTC)

Well then do that. You didn't source it at all so by all rights, it should have been deleted. You've been told about sourcing images before and you should know by now that, as policy, it is mandatory. --Jasca Ducato _{Council Chamber} ^{Assassination record} 12:41, April 27, 2012 (UTC)

PAX East

The PAX East images you are posting onto articles are leaked material (i.e. images Ubisoft did not want released to the general public). Please could you refrain from posting them onto articles in future, at least until Ubisoft officially release them. Thank you. --Jasca Ducato _{Council Chamber} ^{Assassination record} 13:55, April 7, 2012 (UTC)

Sorry, they were already on the wiki so I thought it was ok. Arcemz 22:03, April 7, 2012 (UTC) Arcemz

Rope dart image.

Where did you get the picture of the rope dart? Is it official? RussellSparrow 00:38, April 18, 2012 (UTC)

It was on this video:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TaPvDUzdShM. I'm not sure whether it was official or not, but the part on the rope dart matched the design and layout from the other weapons shown in the Connor's Weapons trailer. Arcemz 01:27, April 18, 2012 (UTC)Arcemz

Recent Edit

Look, I'm not sure if it was intentional, and I know I'm not an admin, but adding and removing your own pictures from a mainspace article is considered achievement hunting. XV DEaD ShOT xV Leave me a message! 02:16, April 20, 2012 (UTC)

My bad, but it wasn't intentional. I added in a gallery image of a Leap of Faith, but unfortunately the file name was the same as a different file and I uploaded the wrong file. Sorry about that. Arcemz 02:26, April 20, 2012 (UTC)Arcemz

That's fine, honestly I wasn't accusing you of anything, I just wanted to let you know. :D XV DEaD ShOT xV Leave me a message! 02:35, April 20, 2012 (UTC)

The questions in your "About Me"

You ask some good questions Arcemz. But you forgot the chicken and the egg :) Eaglewulf23 00:26, April 21, 2012 (UTC)

What do you mean? Arcemz 00:29, April 21, 2012 (UTC)Arcemz

I meant as to which one came first, the chicken or the egg. An egg comes from a chicken, but the chicken comes from an egg. So at the begining of time, which one came first, and why? Anyway, I also meant to ask you, what's the code for the userbox about the Black Room? And congrats on becoming an Apprentice. Eaglewulf23 20:54, April 28, 2012 (UTC)

Oh, I see. I'm not sure, that's tricky. Maybe the chicken evolved from another species? The theory of evolution is true for the First Civilization, so it must be for other species.

The code for the Black Room userbox is: "BlackRoom" and thanks for the congrats :) Arcemz 21:04, April 28, 2012 (UTC)

Thanks Arcemz :) Eaglewulf23 00:05, April 29, 2012 (UTC)

Black Room Userbox

Permission to use Black Room Userbox? Master Decoder 07:12, April 29, 2012 (UTC)

Anyone can use it dude, I don't own the Userbox. Arcemz 07:26, April 29, 2012 (UTC)

Just making sure. Master Decoder 07:59, April 29, 2012 (UTC)

Apprenticeship

Hello, Arcemz, this is DarkFeather, one of the Istruttore on the Wiki. Blaidd asked me to start your Apprenticeship and act as your Mentor, so here I am. If you could, please, stop by the IRC sometime between six and midnight US Central Standard Time so we can have a little chat about expectations, assignments, contact methods, and such. Thanks for your interest in the Apprenticeship, and I look forward to working with you.

DarkFeather ^{Raven's Nest}_{Raven's Hunt} 04:50, May 22, 2012 (UTC)

Hey DarkFeather, thanks for choosing me as your Apprentice, it is an honour to have you as my Mentor :). I would love to chat with you as soon as possible, but I live in Australia, and between 6 and midnight is basically between 9 a.m. and 3.p.m here, and my school hours are from 8 a.m. to 3.p.m, so I may be late coming to the IRC. Unfortunately though I'm writing this on Tuesday afternoon, and tomorrow afterschool I have rugby training until 4p.m., so I don't think I can get on the IRC until Thursday afterschool, maybe around 3:30 p.m to 9:30 p.m. (Australian Eastern Standard Time). So for you, that would be between 12:30 a.m and 6:30 a.m. (US Central Standard Time). Or, if you want, we can wait until the weekend where I can be on the IRC between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m., which for you is between 6 and midnight (US Central Standard Time). Sorry about the troubles, and I hope we can work it out. Ultimately though, I do look forward to starting my Apprenticeship. Thanks! Arcemz ^{Something on your mind?} 06:22, May 22, 2012 (UTC)

Not a problem. We'll just end up having to meet up Saturdays and use talkpages elsewise. Why don't we meet on the weekend sometime, go over things, and get you started?

DarkFeather ^{Raven's Nest}_{Raven's Hunt} 21:46, May 23, 2012 (UTC)

Oh, small note: leave notes on talkpages. We try to use coops and progress logs as tracking logs with minimal background dialog. No harm, no foul :) DarkFeather ^{Raven's Nest}_{Raven's Hunt} 06:22, May 27, 2012 (UTC)

Alright, sweet. Arcemz ^{Something on your mind?} 09:04, May 27, 2012 (UTC)

Also FYI I bumped your comments to my talkpage and replied there. DarkFeather ^{Raven's Nest}_{Raven's Hunt} 18:03, May 27, 2012 (UTC)

Ok, so is that where I should leave assignments comments from now on? Arcemz ^{Something on your mind?} 21:18, May 27, 2012 (UTC)

Yessir :) DarkFeather ^{Raven's Nest}_{Raven's Hunt} 22:54, May 27, 2012 (UTC)

Yo, so I checked my talkpage and saw my message didn't get put. Seems I'm going to have to double-check my edits on the Wiki for a while to make sure they get here >.<' Anyways, the dialog I mentioned can be seen on A Warm Welcome, as can thumb images. Thumb is a tag into Wiki images that adds a border and allows a caption along with upload data. The dialog is a format we use, so try to model it there. I'll try to make sure my messages are there for you in the future -- sorry for the rocky start. Maybe we can catch up this weekend again. DarkFeather ^{Raven's Nest}_{Raven's Hunt} 02:38, June 1, 2012 (UTC)

Alright, thanks for the info :). I'll probably be on the IRC from 9 a.m. onwards on Sunday (which I believe is from 6 p.m. onwards on Saturday in America), so that will be the best time to meet.

So far though I've finished the dialog section, by modeling it with the dialogue seen in A Warm Welcome. Just not sure what images are thumbs in that article - are they the Gallery images or the ones in the article itself?

Arcemz ^{Something on your mind?} 06:09, June 1, 2012 (UTC)

Looking good, and I'm looking forward to catching up again. Thumbs are just the images in the article. A note: no using "you". But, you've made good time and good progress :) You're doing quite well. DarkFeather ^{Raven's Nest}_{Raven's Hunt} 03:29, June 2, 2012 (UTC)

Assignment 2

Your second assignment is posted. Time to maintain a little of the history of our Order :) Post any questions or draft review requests here and I'll see them. DarkFeather ^{Raven's Nest}_{Raven's Hunt} 03:09, June 8, 2012 (UTC)

Alright, sounds good. I'll get to work. Just wondering what things in particular need to be done? Thanks. Arcemz ^{Something on your mind?} 05:58, June 8, 2012 (UTC)

DarkFeather allows this clever, canny user to borrow a raven and not have their eyes pecked in return for dedication to the Wiki.

Thank you, Mentor. I'll be sure to stay dedicated to the Wiki in order to keep this raven XD Arcemz ^{Something on your mind?} 21:04, June 21, 2012 (UTC)

Assignment 3

Your third assignment is to revamp Jerusalem, Acre, and Damascus. I'll get documentation up tonight. DarkFeather ^{Raven's Nest}_{Raven's Hunt} 13:29, June 21, 2012 (UTC)

Ok, sounds good. I'll refer to the Assassin's Creed Encyclopedia and maybe even hop back onto the very first Assassin's Creed. I'll put the Apprentice Revamp templates up on all three and get to work. Thanks. Arcemz ^{Something on your mind?} 21:13, June 21, 2012 (UTC)

Epic mix

Dude you have got to try this:

• Play the AC3 E3 Cinematic trailer.
• As soon as the Ubisoft logo cuts to white, play Pandora (the link you sent me).
• Watch the trailer.
• Have your jaw drop. xD

Signature

Hey Arcemz, I notice that every time you sign a post in forums and talkpages, your signature picture is shown in the WikiActivity...so instead of using [[File:ArcemzSig.png|link=User:Arcemz|100px]] for your signature, why don't replace the code with the following:

[[User:Arcemz|<choose><option>http://images.wikia.com/assassinscreed/images/7/7f/ArcemzSig.png</option></choose>]]

It behaves the same way as your previous sig, but is more subtle i.e. no more sig pic shown for everyone to see. ;)--Odranoelluta^{Talk✲<choose><option>http://images1.wikia.nocookie.net/marvel-cinematic-universe/images/1/18/Sig.png</option></choose>} 11:35, August 2, 2012 (UTC)

Next assignment

Romagna and Smoke screen bombs need a major expansion, and Bonfire of the Vanities (DLC) needs a revamp. I'm sure you can predict the rules for this one, but I'll do the writeup later. Enjoy and good hunting, Apprentice. DarkFeather ^{Raven's Nest}_{Raven's Hunt} 02:14, August 16, 2012 (UTC)

Romagna

Arc, I would add all the events from the Battle of Forlì, as they all occurred in Romagna. You could make two subsections, one for description of the region and one for the history of the region, and fill each out with as much description as you can. That should make the article nicely laid out and detailed, while also adding some space for some more images (perhaps one of the wharfs if you can find one already on the Wiki?). The progress is promising, though -- you're doing well. Sorry I didn't have time to add this review last night, but I hope this helps. DarkFeather ^{Raven's Nest}_{Raven's Hunt} 19:45, September 6, 2012 (UTC)

Definitely helps, thanks Dark. I'll hop to it. <choose><option>http://images.wikia.com/assassinscreed/images/7/7f/ArcemzSig.png</option></choose>

Can I use the Bleeding Effect template? Hoodie! =D How'D'Ya Feel? There's two sides/to every user... 18:35, October 22, 2012 (UTC)

Food for Thought on Liberation and Secret Crusade

Secret Crusade

Just in case this was still a project of yours that we need to finish up ;)

• Intro is still present tense when it needs to be past.
• The book quote summary should probably have an in-text citation as well as the end-of-page reference. If you put the reference in code markup as below, it will create a quote-like format for the text.

: <i>Example</i>

Example

• You could consider tabberizing the chapters in sets of ten.
• Try to avoid ending sentences in prepositions (this is just for grammar's sake), so instead of "to impart his stories to" you could use "as the recipient of his knowledge". Just a thought.
• "Retreated back" is a bit redundant -- "retreated" should work
• Check for comma splices like the last sentence of 3's first paragraph.
• "However" should be surrounded by commas when used in the middle of a sentence.
• 23's last sentence is awkwardly worded / punctuated.
• 53's first sentence has a semicolon where a colon is needed.

Liberation

• Like SC's intro, the article is in present tense where past is needed.
• The infobox's media could refer to how the game is loaded into the Vita, if you want.
• The wording is much better here than in SC -- a quick pass for comma splices and ending prepositions, and it should be grammatically in order
• References and gallery look good.

Hi

Hello, it's my understanding that you are the user who is reworking the AC3: Liberation article.  I would just like to point out a concern, it would appear that the game doesn't span to 1780 but 1777... according to walkthroughs.  Could you look into this? Supreme Master Assassin^{O Mentoras} 05:46, December 17, 2012 (UTC)

Hmm, that statement about being spanned from 1765 to 1780 was written there before I begun reworking the article, probably added before the game's release and based on online information. However, you are right, as after checking the database in-game, Madeleine did actually die in 1777, which happened at the very end of the game. I'll quickly change it. Thanks for letting me know. <choose><option>http://images.wikia.com/assassinscreed/images/7/7f/ArcemzSig.png</option></choose>

You're welcome! Supreme Master Assassin^{O Mentoras} 07:50, December 17, 2012 (UTC)

Liberation nav

If you have a list of ACIII:Liberation memory, leave them on my talk page and I can format a nav template for you to use.. --VATSA (TALK • GENTEK) 03:04, December 21, 2012 (UTC)

You can create this one if you wish to learn. Create a new page with the title Template:AC3LMemories. Use source mode to view Template:AC3Memories, follow the format and edit the new Liberation memory template in source mode. Don't forget to change Assassin's Creed III Memories to Assassin's Creed III: Liberation Memories. If you are familiar with colour codes, you can change those. Anymore question about this you can find me at the IRC or leave a note on my talk page.. --VATSA (TALK • GENTEK) 12:15, December 21, 2012 (UTC)

Just thought I'd leave this list of color codes here :) ~ GI Auditore ^{Comms Channel} 12:19, December 21, 2012 (UTC)

Removing images

Hi Arc, next time you remove an entire concept art section from an article could you inform me (if I was the uploader). The gallery in question is the Assassin's Creed III: Liberation concept section of the gallery tab. Cheers. ► Kaloneous ◄ _{♣^HelpDesk♣} 15:55, December 23, 2012 (UTC)

Will do, Kal. But I had only moved one image from the gallery to the plot section and replaced the space left with another concept art. What do you mean by removing an entire section? <choose><option>http://images.wikia.com/assassinscreed/images/7/7f/ArcemzSig.png</option></choose>

I meant the artist in question, anyways it isn't a major deal but you know the rate at which the photo section increases so I'd hate to lose track of the artwork as I'm waiting on permission to write the guys article. ► Kaloneous ◄ _{♣^HelpDesk♣} 05:35, December 27, 2012 (UTC)

Ah, right. Sorry about that. I'll let you know if I remove any more images in the future. <choose><option>http://images.wikia.com/assassinscreed/images/7/7f/ArcemzSig.png</option></choose>

Thanks Arc :) ► Kaloneous ◄ _{♣^HelpDesk♣} 08:47, December 27, 2012 (UTC)

Liberation template

Edit warring with Liberation memory template? You keep reverting the lighter colour added, without a reason. Do not revert the colour without a reason or I might have to give you an official warning.

I would also like to note that, War is willing to help with the creation of these memory articles. --VATSA (TALK • GENTEK) 05:03, December 30, 2012 (UTC)

Ah, my apologies. I didn't realize it was actually somebody changing the colour, I thought the template was actually reverting itself to an earlier colour I tested. Will stop from now on.

I'm fine if he wants to help with creating the memory pages, but as this task is for my Apprenticeship, I might need to ask my mentor DarkFeather if he's ok with it. <choose><option>http://images.wikia.com/assassinscreed/images/7/7f/ArcemzSig.png</option></choose>

Just FYI...

So, there's been some confusion about your assignment. I'm copying you on what I sent War and Nesty, so you know what was said. If there are problems, let me know. Thanks.

Alrighty, got your message. I went over this with some people last night, but the assignment was never intended to lock up Liberation on the Wiki. Arc's job is to ensure the Wiki has all the information about Liberation up on the Wiki as his capstone project. This means he needs to make sure existing articles are accurate and missing ones are added -- he knows other users may be contributing and should be posting his revamp template on the ones he is creating. So, this shouldn't keep you and War from posting memories -- by all means feel free to. Arc just can't work directly with the two of you on the creation of individual pages, as this is one of his assignments. If this doesn't make sense, please let me know. I'm copying War on this and sending a copy to Arc, so that everyone knows what's going on. Thanks for letting me know about the confusion.
