Forgot to talk to you about a few things
Heya! When you get the chance can you get in touch with me? I had some stuff I forgot to talk to you about. Thanks a bunch! - Eckserah   Head Dataminer 08:07, 11 December 2020 (UTC)

Links
Kate, when you're updating Fallout 4 holodisk and note pages, can you also change the intro to note or holotapes (see my recent edits). And check if it's a holotape, to change the category to holotapes. see We are done. Jspoelstra (talk) 16:07, 11 December 2020 (UTC)

Hi.

I know, you've changed the format of some IB entries recently, removing  from certain parameters. Just stumbled upon such on Mechanist's log – did you replace it with something else? Couldn't find a related edit from you that easily … I've left exactly that untouched for now, so you might fix it on said article. -- -- You talkin' to me? -- cCContributions -- 17:46, 11 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Intrepid359 removed it later on that article.
 * Eckserah did it differently on another article, so I talked with him on Discord. To emulate the formatting, the deprecated  would give, we should use   instead. He and/or I are going to update the related infobox documentations.
 * Just informing you. -- UserCCCSig.png -- You talkin' to me? -- cCContributions -- 04:00, 12 December 2020 (UTC)

Re: A tiny favor
Hey, there!

The image categorization for all yet categorized (if I didn't miss something) Fallout 4 holotapes and notes is done; see Category:Fallout 4 holotape images and Category:Fallout 4 note images.

Glad that I could serve you! 😉😄 -- -- You talkin' to me? -- cCContributions -- 18:02, 11 December 2020 (UTC)

Favor
Hey! Could you do me a favor and move Dolly Sods campground to Dolly Sods Campground AND Spruce Knob campground to Spruce Knob Campground? They are real-world US Forest Service campgrounds that are capitalized. Dolly Sods Campground is Red Creek Campground, Spruce Knob Campground is Spruce Knob Lake Campground. I know you also love locations, so here's the full list of campgrounds in that area! :)

You can see a little of it in my pic of the arktos pharma handy it’s in that workshop area on one of the upper floors refer to said image for reference if you need to Springtrap1128 (talk) 09:41, 14 December 2020 (UTC)

Redirects
I see you've changed Far Harbor note redirects to anchor directs (see as an example). I wouldn't have done that myself, the redirect has the same function, it makes not much difference. Also, when a link would change on the target page (so for example, Far Harbor to Far Harbor notes, not saying we're doing that but still), your anchor direct wouldn't work anymore for all those pages. You also did the same in the past for keys, wasn't really necessary. Jspoelstra (talk) 17:04, 16 December 2020 (UTC)

Hate to bother you over this, but I have to ask; Was I banned from discord?--Ant2242 (talk) 15:11, 21 December 2020 (UTC)

I heard you and Eckserah were discussing when to create disambiguation pages, appears you believe two characters is enough for that. I don't agree with that. It's too little entries, and you can see the two already in the search bar where you can make a choice there. At least three, preferable even 5 entries I'd say. Not any less. Jspoelstra (talk) 19:27, 21 December 2020 (UTC)
 * The disambiguation rule needs a bit of a rewrite, two entries is too few for a disambig. Also moved Jukebox to Jukebox (Fallout 3) again. Many years ago we decided to combine the Fallout 3 and FNV world object/misc item pages and give them the (Fallout 3) disambiguator. Other that that, only use a (disambiguation) suffix if the same character appears in multiple games, like Henry, Marcus and Harold. The Jukebox overview page should just be jukebox without disambig.

Thanks.
Thank you for the kind thoughts. Like my nickname, I'm not good at English. Please forgive me when I used some strange phrases. This is my first time to use the "Talk". I don't know how long will as normal. So I would just keep typing until I decide to stop. Don't need check all my words.

About the page of "Fallout 4 armor and clothing", I really want Disciples' and Operators' armored skirts and dresses to be parts of Disciples or Operators armors because they can mod without "Railroad". Like "chest piece". Even they took up leg slots. But you guys don't let me do it. And because that, I realize those things cannot wear with any clothes. So I felt you guys are right and leave those things away.

And anther thing. I know you guys don't like it, but there is a unique laser musket that don't has Legendary effects but has automatic fire mod. Please give its own page for it. For The Minutemen, The winner of the war with The Institute. For Sturges. I don't know your thought with "Salvaged Assaultron head". But to me, it like a unique laser musket that has a strange design and unique effects but cannot make modifications. Don't feel it just a special laser musket like "Atom's Judgement" and "Deliverer", do you? So... I hope you guys to let "Laser musket (Fallout 4)" be one of "General" weapons and put "Automatic laser musket" and "Salvaged Assaultron head" under "Laser Musket" to be the "Unique" weapon of it, please. I can't do it because my English is poor.

Thank you anyway. All the best to you.User:趙海如

RE: Flamingo things
Of course! I always have it open and have no issues with going through and finding whatever info you need. Let me know if you have anything else I can help with! (Also I left you some messages when you get the chance) - Eckserah   Head Dataminer 16:50, 23 December 2020 (UTC)

Fallout 76 map images
Kate, the category Category:Fallout 76 map images isn't needed, the images in there should just be placed in the Category:Fallout 76 maps. It's one of the categories where mainspace pages and images are combined. Now it falls out of place with the map categories of the other games. Jspoelstra (talk) 15:36, 24 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Don't images get a seperate category than non images? Otherwise we end up cluttering up the article categories with images - Eckserah User_Eckserah.png  Head Dataminer 21:54, 24 December 2020 (UTC)
 * This seems like an anomoly but I asked if it would be cool to place all file: into an images category across all games to keep them consistent that way instead. - kdarrow Pickman heart.png  take her for a spin! 21:57, 24 December 2020 (UTC)

Booze and gas masks
Is there really a cut content FO2 gas mask or is it from the Restoration Mod? May I split the "Booze" page "Booze (Fallout)", "Booze (Fallout 2)", and "Booze (Fallout Tactics)"? Or is it just the former and latter? --Ant2242 (talk) 19:41, 24 December 2020 (UTC)

Unable to upload
For some reason I'm unable to upload the exterior shot for Dusty's Cantina from Gamepedia. Do you know what could be causing it? Also could you please do it? "File:Fo2 Dusty's Cantina Exterior.png"--Ant2242 (talk) 07:16, 25 December 2020 (UTC)

I'm also getting the message for "File:Fo2 SS Dwellers.png".--Ant2242 (talk) 07:28, 25 December 2020 (UTC)

Merry Christmas
About those maps, the "map" name itself already indicates that it is an image folder, those mainspace article don't belong in there, but in notes. I'm going to change that so there is conformity again. And thanks for the well wishes, the same to you, and glad to have been some help along your way to stardom! You've become an important member here in a short time, thanks for your work here in the past year; your future is looking bright! Jspoelstra (talk) 21:44, 25 December 2020 (UTC)

Quiz 3-2
Hello Clarice Katherine.....

I have come to inform you that I have made the required edits to my user page. I added a quote about the free states as well as links to 3 of my "favorite" pages on the wiki. Also I changed my pfp a few weeks ago, no doubt subconsciously anticipating this lesson...

Also customized my signature. - Not Alex  03:35, 27 December 2020 (UTC)

Hemlock Holes
Hey there, would you be able to extract the sign for Hemlock Holes? Seems like it's one that's been missed in the passionate quest for sign textures in 76 :P AllYourFavorites! (talk) 22:31, 30 December 2020 (UTC)

Bramgood
No worries, I figured it could just be reorganized rather than removed. On another note, thank you for getting the Hemlock Holes sign! AllYourFavorites! (talk) 19:27, 31 December 2020 (UTC)

Re: Patrollerino
Thanks, Miss D. Will look through it, though I think I grasped the concept beforehand.

Navboxes
Kate, you placed Navbox_holotapes_and_notes_FNV at the bottom of some Fallout: New Vegas holotape/note pages. You need to split that navbox in a holotape and note navbox, like I did with Fallout 4 and Fallout 76. Jspoel  15:47, 3 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Oh, and if you post a blog, you should add the Category:Community news to it, otherwise it won't show on the wiki front page in the community news section. Jspoel [[file:Speech Jspoel.png|10px|link=User talk:Jspoelstra]] 17:32, 3 January 2021 (UTC)
 * You don't have to remove the Navbox holotapes and notes template, like you did here. Just change the name to Navbox holotapes FNV, the navbox will be created later on. Jspoel [[file:Speech Jspoel.png|10px|link=User talk:Jspoelstra]] 19:05, 3 January 2021 (UTC)

Republican
I'm 99% sure that the Boomers' comment about Boone isn't referring to the Republican Party, and more the NCR. There's nothing that states it's a reference to the Republican Party, and the NCR use the term "Republican" on a few occasions (Republican Farmers' Committee, NCR civilian clothes are called "OutfitRepublican" in the files).

Another Vandal
User Icenhancer vandalized the Raider Skinner Outfit I believe I have fixed everything but he still needs to be taken care of Springtrap1128 (talk)

Interactions box
Kate, the interactions overview and inventory always need to stay on pages where the characters appears in the game. Only for mentioned-only characters they can go, but not the ones you're removing now. Jspoel  21:53, 7 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Inventory, if it's missing, can be filled in, taken from the Fallout and Fallout 2 NPC armor and clothing page. Jspoel [[file:Speech Jspoel.png|10px|link=User talk:Jspoelstra]] 21:55, 7 January 2021 (UTC)

Academy and project clearing
I was wondering if I could join the Academy to improve my abilities. Specifically in the in finishing of projects, as clearing out of all that stuff from my personal pages... it got too large years ago and I seem to keep adding to it rather than removing from it.--Ant2242 (talk) 03:51, 9 January 2021 (UTC)

Titles etc.
Kate, my dearest,

I was simply correcting an overzealous application of said policy. As you point out, we omit titles and ranks from titles, as is common practice on Wikipedia and other encyclopedias. However, that policy does not actually cover nicknames, since they are context-sensitive, and it's left to the editor's discretion. I follow the general naming policy, that names should be short and precise to allow for ease of identification and navigation.

In Lady Jane's case, Lady is neither a title nor a rank, but a nickname, like Athabaska Dick or Marge LeBarge, and both are used in-game to refer to these characters and on the wiki to refer to them - otherwise, they'd be "Dick (Redding)" or "Marge (Redding)". I'm not sure how we'd place Smitty, since he clearly states that Smitty is a nickname given to him by the rest of the settlement on account of his profession.

Context matters here. Sergeant RL-3 was, for a long time, located at RL-3, despite it being evident that it's part of his full name, on account of robots not actually holding a rank in the military.

I usually defer to Wikipedia in unclear cases, and it will use unique, identifying nicknames over formal or birth names. For example, Mother Jones, a labor activist, was born as Mary G. Harris Jones, but is universally known as Mother Jones and that name is used, instead of Jones (activist).

Kind regards, Tagaziel
