Archive 1 • Archive 2 You see that big button in the top right hand corner that says "Add message"? If you need to leave me a message, USE IT. I don't mind people adding to sections if it's relevant, but if you want to talk about something different entirely, it only takes one click above this to do so.

Modern day screens

Hey Vesper, do you know why all these random people are trying to upload those present-day-watermarked images? I'm bored on putting them for deletion. I hoped that Kain would remove the watermarks using his Photoshop skills... Altaïr Skywalker 47 (talk) 03:14, August 10, 2013 (UTC)

People are trying to add the modern-day screenshots because they've recently been revealed. With the watermarks though, they're going about it wrong, so we have to remove them until a non-watermarked image can be obtained.

If you want to ask Kain if he'd be able to remove the watermarks, go and ask him to do it. Don't go through me. Slate Vesper (talk) 14:11, August 11, 2013 (UTC)

Hey, I saw a non-watermarked image. (here). Altaïr Skywalker 47^{Agency Laptop} 01:32, August 12, 2013 (UTC)

Black Flag requirements

I'm just wondering that what should be the requirements for playin AC:Black flag?

I'm not a PC player, so the best answer I could give you is "a copy of the game and a console to play it on."

I know that Kain and vatsa play on PC though, so you could as either of those. Slate Vesper (talk) 14:50, August 11, 2013 (UTC)

Forum problem

Vesper, a user named JackDick recently created a forum, as you may have noticed, Here. I tried to put the content, which was above the line, to the bottom, but for some reason the forum header doesn't move downwards. Any ideas? Altaïr Skywalker 47^{Agency Laptop} 01:21, August 12, 2013 (UTC)

The forum header shouldn't move downwards. The page should be alright now. Slate Vesper (talk) 01:26, August 12, 2013 (UTC)

Mariner Image

I'm really sorry. I used the "Public Domain" template because one of the first concept arts I posted (done by the same person), it got edited. I wasn't sure what template I should give it, but I went with either the 'Screenshot' or 'Cc-by-sa-3.0' one. Someone later changed it into the Public Domain one, and I found it fit better so I used it from then on for all the concept arts I've uploaded of that person.

Oh shit, I really should've put something in the attention part. I'm sorry, I wasn't thinking straight. Is it even okay if these are uploaded? The concept artist, Borislav Mitkov, posted the concept arts in multiple places, among which was cghub, a place where previous concept artists of the multiplayer portion have posted their work, such as Antoine Rol and Anais Bernabé. Maybe I shouldn't have made their backgrounds transparent, but I thought it was okay to put up his work here. Isn't his work property of Ubisoft? Crookandcharlatan (talk) 10:02, August 12, 2013 (UTC)

Stop panicking. All you would need to do is ask the artist's permission and make sure to use Screenshots or Cc-by-sa-3.0 next time.

And yes, it would be Ubisoft property, since they are designs for one of their games, which they employed the artist for. Their IP, so any production material like artistic designs belongs to them. Slate Vesper (talk) 18:01, August 12, 2013 (UTC)

Sorry for freaking out. If it is Ubisoft's property, then there isn't a problem with it being on the Wiki, right? Or am I mixing up things? I'm just a bit confused by the 'asking for the artist's permission', I can't fathom the people of the Wiki doing that for every artist that's worked for Ubisoft. Maybe I'm seeing it a bit too simplistic, but I thought anything that belonged to Ubisoft, aka the artists' work, would be okay to post here, as long as it's properly sourced. Am I wrong in thinking that? Is there a more complex procedure that I've somehow missed?

Also, just for future reference, what is the Public Domain template used for? ^^; Crookandcharlatan (talk) 18:31, August 12, 2013 (UTC)

Revamp Animi Avatars Pages

Hey there, Slate

So, there's been a "Revamp template" hovering atop the Animi Avatars (Brotherhood) page for quite some time, and I'd like to try my hand at fixing it up. I'd like to try it by myself, since I tend to shy away from revamps and I'd like to get better at it, but if you want to participate, I don't really have the right to say you can't. I'd like to ask you something though, since you're the most multiplayer-oriented admin (also, GI recommended you): when do I utilize "primary/secondary" stage and when do I utilize "first/second" stage? (cause the article titles themselves are quite OOU)

Thanks in advance ^^ Crookandcharlatan (talk) 16:09, August 23, 2013 (UTC)

Primary/secondary/tertiary/quaternary are for the categories, because Abstergo are linked throughout all the renditions of the multiplayer, so they must have some plans behind it all.

For the in-article context, first stage is Brotherhood, second stage for Revelations, and console stage is for AC3 currently, with Black Flag probably being the second console stage. Slate Vesper (talk) 17:37, August 23, 2013 (UTC)
