Edits
Hmm. You told me you have made three edits and I see here that you have made four. Suspicious. - kdarrow   take her for a spin! 16:17, October 15, 2020 (UTC)

Vault Academy Progress Report #1
Well done on your first section of lessons - I have included the fancy badges you have earned below. You have shown competency through the first seven lessons and quizzes, and I am satisfied and enthusiastic about your progress. The next section will cover templates and the inner workings of articles. I would like to see you show a solid understanding of introductory templating and infoboxes throughout the next section, which spans lesson 8, lesson 9, lesson 10, and lesson 11. With your previous experience, I am sure it will be a breeze. Let me know if any questions in the meantime. Keep up the good work! - kdarrow   take her for a spin! 08:28, 18 November 2020 (UTC)

To-Do list
Just noticed your User:Eckserah/ToDo-List, looking forward to you working on that for us, being a bit of a dataminer myself! Jspoelstra (talk) 11:54, 22 November 2020 (UTC)

What really links here
Hi!

So what's this about that tool? What are the differences between the bottom toolbar feature and it? And how does one use it? -- -- You talkin' to me? -- cCContributions -- 13:43, 24 November 2020 (UTC)

get it, get it
This is my 69,000th edit. It's funny, cuz the number. Get it? Eh? - kdarrow   take her for a spin! 07:45, 26 November 2020 (UTC)

Infobox location
You broke the infobox location template with your latest edits, affecting many pages. Better create a user template sandbox where you can experiment with first. Jspoelstra (talk) 22:17, 26 November 2020 (UTC)

Greetings
I am here, let me know what you need help with! - kdarrow   take her for a spin! 03:07, 28 November 2020 (UTC)

Holotape transciption
Yes, make paragraphs of them if they are all single lines coming from one person. It reads/looks better. Most of the tape transcripts are already ok, I've just about been on all holotape pages in my years here. Jspoelstra (talk) 22:52, 1 December 2020 (UTC)

Thanks
For all you and your crew's work lately. Really helps out a lot and everything is looking really good, especially Steel Dawn. I owe you guys! - kdarrow   take her for a spin! 09:44, 3 December 2020 (UTC)

What's up!
I am here! Let me know how I can help! - kdarrow   take her for a spin! 04:24, 4 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Sure, can do. - kdarrow Pickman heart.png  take her for a spin! 04:38, 4 December 2020 (UTC)

A gift
Just realized I have not yet given you a very special gift for your inventory, and you very much so deserve one. Enjoy!

Page deletion
The state it was in was hardly valid, there was nothing except a vague title, can't really work with just that.Branebriar1930 (talk) 00:16, 9 December 2020 (UTC)

Vault Academy check in
No pressure or anything, just wanted to check in and make sure you didn't have any questions about the next few lessons. I am here for any that come up, now or later. Just a reminder lesson #8 on templates and lesson #9 on more templates are up next. Let me know how I can help! - kdarrow   take her for a spin! 14:18, 10 December 2020 (UTC)

Coding
I'm having a small discussion with User:CompleCCity about what to do with the edid coding, see User_talk:CompleCCity. Do we use , or remove to coding all together? Jspoelstra (talk) 17:39, 16 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Ok, we'll remove the tt code then. Looking forward to your modules, we were looking for someone like you with data mining expertise, I'm a bit into it myself. And I'm using whatreallylinkshere regularly, works a lot better without the navbox links. We'll be in contact I'm sure down the road. Jspoelstra (talk) 21:50, 16 December 2020 (UTC)

Finn
I think it's nonsense to have a disambig page for two characters. You can see them both already right there in the search bar when you start typing. It has to be at least three characters, any less it loses it purpose. Jspoelstra (talk) 19:22, 21 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Sent Kate a message. Yes, I think we have some more disambig pages with only two entries, and it's time we have a look at those. Even pages like The Pitt, or Far Harbor. Jspoelstra (talk) 19:32, 21 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Needs to be rewritten. Would indicate creating disambig pages for, as an example, weapon mods, which is madness. Jspoelstra (talk) 19:50, 21 December 2020 (UTC)

Flamingo things
Thank you so much for adding the missing formids I needed on the 76 flamingo article. For some reason, ecksEdit is being slow for me today so I kinda gave up. I appreciate it very, super much! - kdarrow   take her for a spin! 16:44, 23 December 2020 (UTC)

GECK
I don't agree with the suffixes on the Garden of Eden Creation Kit page. When you check other Category:Miscellaneous items overview pages you'll see we remove it using the pipe. Goes in fact for all the item pages. It isn't necessary because it's already disambiguated with the game in the box to the left. Jspoelstra (talk) 15:29, 24 December 2020 (UTC)


 * Well if you really want to get technical not every one of the G.E.C.K.s are actually misc items. Also from a reader's perspective having the links all say the same thing looks like they just point back to the page you are already on. Having the link text being the same as the link differentiates them more at a glance. - Eckserah User_Eckserah.png  Head Dataminer 21:58, 24 December 2020 (UTC)
 * The game notation in the box left to it already denotes it properly. All these kind of pages, so what links to Gamearticlelist use this format. I've undone it again, if you really want to drive it to the letter, take it up with a mediatior, an admin, I suggest AllYourFavorites. Jspoelstra (talk) 15:20, 27 December 2020 (UTC)

Bot
No, I'm not running a bot and I don't know how. If you think a bot can be run on your created categories, you can always ask someone else who knows how to run one. Jspoelstra (talk) 18:39, 29 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Are you planning to ask someone to use a bot on these maintenance categories? Jspoelstra (talk) 14:18, 30 December 2020 (UTC)

Currency
I've created a caps template to be used on pages with the cap currency. You could do the same with other currencies like gold bullion. But I do need to know you have the ok from Tagaziel and/or AllYourFavorites about using the currency images like this. Jspoelstra (talk) 19:05, 30 December 2020 (UTC)

Values
Ok, thanks for fixing that! Jspoel  14:50, 1 January 2021 (UTC)

Final progress report
Fantastic work! This is your last progress report for the Vault Academy. I am so proud! You have completed all of your lessons, passed all the quizzes, and now can take the final exam at your leisure. I hope that you have learned a lot, and that this is only the beginning of your fine wiki editing career. Remember that I am still here to answer any questions from here on out, even though you are no longer a mentee. Well, before I get all misty-eyed, here are your badges. Congrats! You earned them. - kdarrow   take her for a spin! 23:47, 2 January 2021 (UTC)

Final exam success
You passed your final, so here is your last badge. Way to go!

Re: Line break tags
Sorry, as a programmer I'm just used to &lt;br&gt; being an empty tag, especially since now every wiki is running on HTML5 anyway. I'll keep that in mind, though. Thanks for the info! △ GabWas [✉] 10:31, 10 January 2021 (UTC)

Form ID
Hey, I'm considering renaming the form id code in the infoboxes back to baseid again. When you look at the Form ID page, the form id exists of two components, the base id (creating multiple copies of the item) and the ref id (moving to that item). So according to that page, form id exists of two components and that makes it incorrect in the infoboxes. We'd have a form id coding (base id + ref id), and a ref id. It's confusing. Another thing, you have created a TableLoopTest template, what does that do, and a module with a red-linked category. What purpose does that module (Module: String) have? Jspoel  18:09, 22 January 2021 (UTC)
 * You'd know better then I. I trust you make adjustments to our Form ID page then. Jspoel [[file:Speech Jspoel.png|10px|link=User talk:Jspoelstra]] 19:16, 22 January 2021 (UTC)
 * I take it the base ids on character pages like Mr. Clark should be changed to form id as well? Jspoel [[file:Speech Jspoel.png|10px|link=User talk:Jspoelstra]] 19:21, 22 January 2021 (UTC)

Rolling back rep
I'm rolling back reputation because empty tables look worse than the fix I implemented. Devastating DaveZIP ZAP RAP 18:27, 25 January 2021 (UTC)

Splitting perk pages
I'm see many split templates on perk pages like Gun Fu to name one. If you're planning for that there needs to be community sensus in my opinion as it's affecting the wiki content to a great degree. Jspoel  21:07, 28 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Which Fallout 76 perk pages did we already split then? Jspoel [[file:Speech Jspoel.png|10px|link=User talk:Jspoelstra]] 12:56, 29 January 2021 (UTC)

Abb
I don't know what purpose the change to the Abb template has, but we now have an error on the Flip page, top right corner above the infobox. Jspoel  17:45, 1 February 2021 (UTC)
