User talk:D. Cello

Welcome

Hi, welcome to Assassin's Creed Wiki! Thanks for your edit to the Assassins page.

Please leave a message on my talk page if I can help with anything! -- JoePlay (Talk) 21:08, October 22, 2009

Adiministrator

Hey. As this Wiki doesn't have an active administrator, I was wondering if this is a position that you'd be interested in taking. You have shown that you are dedicated to this Wiki and making sure things are in a good order/categorized correctly. Let me know if this is something you'd be interested in and I can go ahead and make it happen. - Wagnike2 22:31, November 20, 2009 (UTC)

Congrats, you are this Wiki's newest admin! For more information on what an administrator does and doesn't do please check out this page. Assassin's_Creed_Wiki:Administrators . If you have any other questions, feel free to hit me up on my talk page. - Wagnike2 23:22, November 20, 2009 (UTC)

A VfD would be an acronym for Voting for Deletion. While you can't technically call a "vote", normally you mark the article for deletion by Categorizing as an article for deletion. Then you normally use the talk page of it to say why you think it should be deleted or not. Usually my rule of thumb is to give the other members a few days to respond on that talk page, if nobody responds go ahead and make the deletion. Another option that you could do is create a new topic on the forum and discuss if it should be deleted or not. Hope that helps. - Wagnike2 03:00, November 21, 2009 (UTC)

Your reply

If you read my edit to the AC2 article, you'd see that it may be released in J,F or M

as stated

in my forum, Davinci refuses to open his door, not literally mind u, but figuratively, I'm thinking this is a glitch, but cant be sure, since i got the last 10 codex pages in a row, without getting them identified in between, now i can enter the room where i take the stuff, but he isn't there to decode them, nor is he answering his door in Venice where i thought he'd be, nor is he in the other place..wherever he was at first, i figured he wouldn't be there but i had to look, so does he move to the villa or what? cause without finding him and getting these decoded, i cant continue.Toolazytomakeaaccount 07:20, November 21, 2009 (UTC)

Vandalism/Categorizing

Hey. I just thought I'd point out these two pages to you: Assassin's_Creed_II_Quotes. I don't know if those quotes are true or not, but they seem false, however since I haven't played the game I can't confirm it as vandalism or not. And secondly, Notoriety needs some categorizing. - Wagnike2 21:10, November 21, 2009 (UTC)

Re: Quotes

I can vouch for the quotes as I played the game through not 2 days ago. I don't have any source sadly. You only have my word.- Leitchy117 11:58, November 22, 2009 (AEST)

thought id mention

since your the only active administrator...that i happen to have on my watchlist anyway..i figured id mention what id posted on (http://assassinscreed.wikia.com/wiki/Talk:Piece_of_Eden), just trying to make sure it gets to someone's attention, as i might not be the only one who could have feelings about this, needless to say i felt it needed to be said.Toolazytomakeaaccount 08:23, November 22, 2009 (UTC)

Congrats!

Hi there~! You might not know me, but I used to edit here a lot and was on wikibreak. I decided to come back, and I found that this wiki already has an admin~! Finally someone can delete those pages XD Well, let's work together from now on~! :D - SilverSummoner^TaLk 02:27, November 23, 2009 (UTC)

Re:Main Page

For featured article, you want to use the Template:FA. From there you should be able to figure out what it is, it's pretty self-explanatory and it gives you the option to write your own information instead of just merely copying the top part of the articles. For featured media, use the Template:FM, again this section should be self explanatory. Just change the file names and the information to what you like. I'm not positive if you can schedule featured articles for a day of the week, I can get back to you on that as soon as I find out. But for now, my advice would be to just change the feature article/featured media like once a week. Maybe each Monday? - Wagnike2 18:02, November 23, 2009 (UTC)

Messed up!

Ey dude i believe i messsd up here http://assassinscreed.wikia.com/wiki/Category:Assassin%27s_Creed_Voice_Actors

All the way above something about a template, you might wanna delete that, oh and yeah i just made a new page:D Phillip Shahbaz, Altair's voice actor!

Voice Actors Format/Template

Since we don't really have a "designated template" for Voice Actors. I think it would be best if we try to get pages to adhere as closely to this page as possible. I know different pages will have different categories, they may not all have quotes, or videos, but I think this works pretty well. Philip Shahbaz - Wagnike2 18:28, November 23, 2009 (UTC)

Might as well keep the quote feature for now how it is, I realize that it doesn't pop out that much against this background, but neither did the old format. Plus, quotes aren't that big of a concern. If I can think of a better format for it later, I'll change it up. - Wagnike2 18:46, November 23, 2009 (UTC)

Re: Welcome

Thanks, I'll try to do as much helping as I can on the wiki. VaultBoy101 02:51, November 25, 2009 (UTC)

Category

this is what I have in mind, though :

under Assassin's Creed Series main category

• Games
  • Assassin's Creed
    • Assassin's Creed Characters
      • Assassin's Creed Assassination Targets
    • Assassin's Creed Voice Actors
    • Locations, Gameplay, Weapons (not sure about this one.. maybe we can just create a page called "list of weapons" and dump in under gameplay category.
  • Assassin's Creed II
    • Assassin's Creed II Characters
      • Assassin's Creed II Assassination Targets
    • Assassin's Creed II Locations, gameplay, etc... same as the first game.
• Locations
  • Assassin's Creed Locations
  • Assassin's Creed II Locations
• Characters
  • Assassin's Creed Characters
  • Assassin's Creed II Characters
• Assassination Targets
  • Assassin's Creed Assassination Targets
  • Assassin's Creed II Assassination Targets
• Weapons (That is, if we decided to not dump the weapon page inside gameplay)
  • Assassin's Creed Weapons
  • Assassin's Creed II Weapons
• Gameplay
  • Assassin's Creed Gameplay
  • Assassin's Creed II Gameplay

This is currently what I have in mind I'll add more later on~ ^^ - SilverSummoner^TaLk 02:56, November 27, 2009 (UTC)

Great, I've seen you're already implementing it. The weapons category seems to be working alright and is coherent, I think we could leave it. =] -- D. Cello 15:40, November 28, 2009 (UTC)

Thanks

Hey, thanks for the welcome. I'm just glad I can contribute what I can for the AC wiki. More power to this wiki!

Antonio Maffei

just a question: is antonio maffei (assassination target in san gimignano in ac2) is the same father maffei in lineage?

Yep, that's him. The conspirator, right? And remember, sign your posts. ; ] -- D. Cello 15:33, November 30, 2009 (UTC)

@D. Cello: thanks. the info's helpful for the improvement of AC Lineage -- Crimson Psyche 16:01, November 30, 2009 (UTC)

re:wiki Improve

eh.. you can just call me Silver XD

That'd be great, of course. May I know what is your idea? =D - SilverSummoner^TaLk 15:37, November 30, 2009 (UTC)

I'm not gonna copy the answer here. xD Where it's gonna be, my place or yours? -- D. Cello 19:28, November 30, 2009 (UTC)

Checking in.

I figured that I'd check in with you, see how things have been going since you became admin, and ask if there is anything that I could help you out with at the moment. - Wagnike2 19:26, November 30, 2009 (UTC)

Gallery question

Hey D. Cello, I've got a question. Is there a way to make an image gallery minimize/expand? I've been uploading a bunch of pictures, and I don't want to overpower my user page.

I use my capture card to record a quick HD movie, then I just take screenshots :) --Zwoooooosh 22:18, November 30, 2009 (UTC)

Clever. =] -- D. Cello 02:53, December 1, 2009 (UTC)

Sure. I just started a new playthrough yesterday so it'll be no trouble to get images. :) --Zwoooooosh 11:27, December 1, 2009 (UTC)

Youtube videos are allowed, right? I'm uploading a bunch now (targets video), and I didn't think to check.

They are, but make sure to leave a spoiler tag or they will be removed. -- D. Cello 17:53, December 1, 2009 (UTC)

Fair enough. I don't think the videos are anymore harmful than actually reading the wiki, but I'll spoiler tag 'em. :)

A video showing the target and location of a story assassination can upset a great number of people. It's like a walkthrough with images. Instead of putting a spoiler bar, you can just advertise about the content. ;]-- D. Cello 18:38, December 1, 2009 (UTC)

Oh sorry, maybe I should've been more specific. The video doesn't show the assassination, its their database entry. Here, there's a link to all 9 on my user page. If you still think its a little too risky, I'll keep using spoilers. --Zwoooooosh 18:47, December 1, 2009 (UTC)

Oh, fantastic! Don't worry, those need no spoiler tag at all. -- D. Cello 18:49, December 1, 2009 (UTC)

Hey, I uploaded a bunch of screenshots from sequence 03. Probably more than you wanted, but you can just pick which ones you want to use and leave the others. :) --Zwoooooosh 00:17, December 2, 2009 (UTC)

Cape Question

Hey D.Cello how am i supposed to get the forli cape? i finished the main storyline, am i missing anything?--Shadows473 03:20, December 1, 2009 (UTC)

You need to find 100 feathers. Good hunting. -- D. Cello 03:26, December 1, 2009 (UTC)

Thankers--Shadows473 00:26, December 2, 2009 (UTC)

Greetings

I don't know whether that was an auto thanks message for my edit from the website,but if not then no problem.And please tell me some articles that you would like someone to edit some things if he knows.I'd like to help out.

-Sirius

Later...

Hey. If you know about Machiavelli, that would be a good place to start... And you can check the to see which articles need expanding. -- D. Cello 18:44, December 1, 2009 (UTC)

Sword Replica Image

It's impossible to tell the true source of the picture. All the websites where they sell the replica of the sword use that same picture. Do a simple Google Image of "Altair sword", which is how I stumbled onto it. -- OpVines 20:27, December 1, 2009 (UTC)

DLC

Hey man, I noticed that the DLC was officially announced today so I updated the main page news, updated the ACII template, and created a page for the Assassin's Creed II DLC. Keep up the good work around here. - Wagnike2 20:30, December 1, 2009 (UTC)

new template

....and please welcome, the new template~! simply type {{Welcome}} and this is what you'll get:

Welcome to the Order, D. Cello!

Welcome to the Assassin's Creed Wiki! We hope you enjoy your stay, and we look forward to working with you!

Have you something to say?

You can always ask our beloved administrators! Our local staff members can always lend a hand! You can also visit the wiki's community portal! We also have the Discord if you're ever in the mood for a chat! You can also check out the blogs, where you and other contributors can voice out your opinion.

We seek unity, stability and order.

Not sure where to start? You can always help out by sharing what you know on some of our stubs. Got some useful pictures? Share them with us on these articles. Got a useful concept for an article? Why not help out in some articles in need of a revamp? Always remember to sign your messages on talk pages with four tildes (~~~~) to avoid any confusion between users. You can also refer to the wiki's help pages if you're ever in doubt. Please remember to read our wiki policies to avoid gaining any unnecessary attention.

We wish you safety and peace on your future endeavors. Happy Editing!

so, what say you? =D - SilverSummoner^TaLk 02:55, December 2, 2009 (UTC)

Edit: oh and I also want to propose one thing: I suggest we turn off the wiki bot thingy that will automatically greet new users, and to do the welcoming manually (by placing the welcome template, that is~) That way, us editors will have more reasons to talk to each other XD - SilverSummoner^TaLk 02:58, December 2, 2009 (UTC)

Very nice, way better than that lame one liner. Now, it's... cozy. xD

Great, let's deactivate the bot, less work, what could happen?? T.T

Since I didn't become admin to sit and do nothing, let's socialize! =D How we deactivate that thing, and how we get notified whenever a new user registers? (I'm completely assuming you know how to do it, Summy) Ah, just one more question: the message would be the same that crazy AI send, but the difference would be that *we* would be typing it? -- D. Cello 03:27, December 2, 2009 (UTC)

well... *ahem* you can call me Silver. In fact, please call me silver. XD

In fact, I do not know how to deactivate that bot. I usually mess around with categories and templates and links so I'm not sure... bout new users, you can view the list of the new users in the [[Special:Logs/newusers]. It's visible in the recent changes under "user creation log". so don't worry bout that~ ^^

I dont really understand bout your last question O.o but.. yeah, if the bot is turned off, then we should type the welcome template thingy to new users manually. Just simply type {{Welcome}} and then sign it with four tildes will do ^^ - SilverSummoner^TaLk 03:46, December 2, 2009 (UTC)
