Congratulations on 100k edits!
Why hello there you wonderful person! I wanted to congratulate you on your spectacular accomplishment! You've done so much and learned so much through all of these edits and I'm constantly learning things from you because of that. Your work with the dataminers and your amazing work with helping teach me the ins and outs of the wiki and editing have been just awesome. I'm so happy that you made it this far and not that long after getting your Savior of the Damned badge too! You have been such a bright guiding light for so many editors and I hope that you realize how important you are to people.

Questions
Heya! Can you get in touch with me when you get the chance? I got some stuff to ask you! Thanks! - Eckserah   Head Dataminer 09:06, 2 March 2021 (UTC)

RE: All Rise
The description is currently missing from the page as is all the other information that belongs in that table. I'm working on a solution that doesn't scrunch the table up. Almost done. - Eckserah   Head Dataminer 22:25, 2 March 2021 (UTC)

The Big One (Hundred Thousand)!
Congratulations on making it to 100,000 edits! What an amazing accomplishment! You've worked so hard for such a long time! But it's not just a number with you. Not only are you grinding out edits, you're taking the time to mentor almost every new editor to grace the wiki, helping with public relations to spread knowledge of the wiki and bring in new users, and reaching out to other related wikis to help them get off the ground. Absolutely phenomenal, and truly inspiring. I hope you're as proud of your accomplishments as I am proud to know someone as selfless as yourself :)

Last push
Your last message to me was quite eye-opening. My attitude towards newer editors hasn't really improved, and to be honest at this point, probably won't. Not going to keep telling you I will change when a part of me isn't prepared to. Truth is I haven't been enjoying editing for quite some time and I don't really see much point in sticking around, especially if I am scaring off newer editors. I don't want you to think I'm just sulking off because I got scolded, it was merely the last wake up call to the fact that my time here is up. Good luck Kate, see you in the Mojave!

Half-life hips
This is why you check everything. Thanks for bringing it to my attention. It's fixed now. Razorgrain turns into gigagrain. Apparently it's been wrong on the wiki for almost 2 years. Yikes! Gilpo1 (talk) 19:51, 3 March 2021 (UTC)

Pointers
Hey Kate, you asked me to give you a condensed version of the pointers I mentioned:


 * 1) Scope: In general, as on the Treasury Note, I'd like to ask you not to trim information too much. Our content criteria are ordered according to their priority (as per good lawmaking), and the most important think is relation to the Fallout series. In the content of the Treasury Note, describing the appearance and similarity to the real world note satisfies every requirement on the list, as it's related (it's an item), accurate (bases on in-game appearance of the item), verifiable (describes similarities), informative (provides in-depth explanation and context for the item's appearance, as well as the apparent reuse of the names of issuers), objective (obviously), as delivered (so not altered by mods), and abides by copyright regulations (obviously). In general, when editing, ask yourself "am I making the article more or less informative?" For me, the article was very informative and stripping it down to "it is similar to" has really reduced its attractiveness. Not to mention, we should provide at least rudimentary information on pages, especially in real world cases, to encourage users to stay within our ecosystem (rights holders need to think strategically, especially in the age of SEO and attention economy).
 * 2) References: Fallout canon policy covers everything, so I'd like to ask you to help me get rid the wiki of our experiments and create a good baseline, rather than tweak it continuously and wind up with a hideous Frankenstein of 16 years' worth of divergent policies. In a nutshell:


 * Anything from a game gets regular numbers.
 * Anything from a non-game source gets a separate group (Non-game at minimum), to reflect its status as non-binding (eg. developer commentary regardless of source, game guides, etc.). Anything from contracted stuff like Shelter or Shelter Online etc. should be grouped separately (especially in larger articles).
 * Non-canon has specifically been used in the sense of "definitively, super never happened" like with FOT/FOBOS and cancelled games on the wiki.

Also, thank you for the tooth. I'm half-drugged now to make sure the painful gums and regrowing bone don't kill me with pain. xD Tägäżïël 10:05, 4 March 2021 (UTC)
