first comment?/Thanks
thanks for protecting teh page. --Gertjaars 01:16, 11 December 2008 (UTC)
- I noticed, and am very proud :P
RuneScape item of the Week
I never said that. I just said that this article should be on Main space because it is OFFICIAL information. I have no say it what they choose so it's nothing to do with my character. Therefore, it belongs in Main space. I am prepared to continue this argument if needed.
- I will be glad to show you here is the link: [1] Go near the bottom of the page and you will find it. When you've seen it, message me if you will allow or disallow this article on to Main space.
- User:JJ9630
- I have asked Hurston to check it out for me and to tell you what he saw. He will reply if he's online. How long will it be till you get home?
Orphaned?
Sorry for my recent rollback about the orphaned page, but I'm not familiar with this. Can you explain it to me :S. Thanks!
- So, the link was from the server page about head banners. Why does the head banner need to be linked to something it has nothing to do with?
Thanks
Sweet, thanks for the info. I knew the rollbacks were for vandals, but I thought they could be used to revert edits faster. Yeah, I wondered how to further explain edits from Rollbacks, I guess that's why. TTYL!
OMG, another question...
Okay, so to help me better revert non-vandal edits, I've noticed some users state in summary "reverted edit 777456 by Example (Talk). Where does this 777456 come from? I can't seem to find the reference number. TY
Classified info
I just want to reiterate what I stated earlier because this is where we can reach consensus: information in articles needs to be verifiable. Whether it's classified information or non-classified information, such info may only be inserted into an article if it's actually germane to the article and if it can be verified by other editors. Mods have a a right click report option? Was it germane to the article? Yes. Was it verifiable by several separate sources? Yes. And so, it's in the article. Mods have a check user IP option? Is it germane to the article? Yes. Is it verifiable by several separate sources? No. So it doesn't go in. To me, this seems simple enough and also seems to be something on which we can form a consensus.--Diberville 17:50, 16 December 2008 (UTC)
- So, you're basically saying that some classified information can be put in articles while other classified information can't, depending on whether it is verifiable?
Usurper Fuji
18:03, 16 December 2008 (UTC)
- Well, as I noted earlier, if it is verifiable, de facto, it isn't really classified. But regardless of the "classification" of the information, anything inserted into the encyclopedia has to be first and foremost verifiable, otherwise, several articles would be filled with spurious rumours. If somehow "classified" information is made public— that is it's authenticity can be ascertained by several independent editors— and it is actually notable to be included within an article, then it may be included within an article. If not, it can't be.
- I think regardless of the issue at hand here everyone agrees that:
- So, you're basically saying that some classified information can be put in articles while other classified information can't, depending on whether it is verifiable?
- for information to be put in an article, it has to be verifiable.
- Classified information is info that is not available to people outside a restricted group and consequently information that is verifiable by the editors, by definition, isn't classified.
- If we all agree on these two premises than we can achieve consensus on this issue by stating that any information be it classified or not can be included if it is notable enough for inclusion and if it is verifiable.--Diberville 18:27, 16 December 2008 (UTC)
- This is at least a piece of common ground that I would have to agree with... other than I do think you can find some "classified" information that is verifiable that Jagex doesn't really want the general player community be aware of. Yes, I can give examples, but it isn't worth pushing the point. I can give plenty of non-Jagex related examples of trade secrets that have become a part of the public domain.
- Some rogue p-mod that wants to say "the heck with Jagex" and decides to post a bunch of stuff from the moderator center.... perhaps most if not all of that ought to be deleted due to the inability that the information can be verified. I can live with that as well. I just don't buy the argument that "it is classified, therefore it must be removed from the wiki". Just because Jagex doesn't want the information spread around is not a good enough reason, at least to me, for its removal.
- This is also where citations can come in handy, where you say "according to RuneHQ, these are some guidelines moderators have for muting players....." THAT can be verified, and doesn't come directly from the Jagex website. --Robert Horning 18:55, 16 December 2008 (UTC)
Diberville has got me convinced--if it's verifiable, and germane to the article, then it should be added. Logically, classified information should not be verifiable, so technically speaking, that would prevent any truly classified information--stuff that would be dangerous if leaked--from showing up on the wiki. By the same token, all other "classified" information would now be available, so theoretically, that policy should satisfy both ends of this argument. --Thunderbird346 23:06, 16 December 2008 (UTC)
- Why SHOULD we add this information to the Wiki? There's no "should." That makes it sound like it's imperative to have this stuff on the Wiki. It's not completely necessary to have this information, so I don't get what all these "shoulds" and "musts" are for.
- I'm not against placing classified information on the Wiki. I just want to know what the purpose of doing so is. Usurper Fuji 00:26, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
- Must is imperative, should is conditional expectation. A human being should eat healthy food but must eat. On this issue, any verifiable and relevant information should be inserted into an article as is the nature of this encyclopedia though none of it must. But this minutiae seems moot since I don't see anyone yet having any serious problems with my above declaration of principles.--Diberville 01:17, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
- It looks like where I said that if Jagex ever publishes this information ingame or on any of their websites, then it doesn't matter. Like with the right click report option, which showed up within a picture in the knowledge base one day. If they put up a picture displaying the mod forums, go ahead and publish it, even though it was an accident they already released it to the public. But if it hasn't been released by Jagex and is thus unverifiable, then it shouldn't be put up.

I think you might be rather confused about the classified info discussion. What we're voting for on that page is whether or not we should put up information that Jagex themselves have released on their sites. For example, in the knowledge base, there was a picture of a jmod account right clicking another player, and it showed the "report abuse" right click option. On the Jagex main site there is currently a paragraph explaining how ingame moderators have to register with Jagex using their personal information.
Those are currently the only things I know of that would be added to the article, because they're the only ones that can be verified through Jagex's own publications. So basically, no moderators' status could risk suspension, the site itself runs no risk, and nobody could be banned or otherwise take any flak. And even if Jagex were to accidentally publish something truly sensitive (such as moderating procedures, ect) we wouldn't publish it. :) Rendova 20:22, 18 December 2008 (UTC)
- I feel that the Player moderator centre article is fine as is, it provides factual information that all users are capable of verifying, and all of the necessary information that the general public should know. I appreciate your concern though, as I went back to re-read a bit more. However at this time I must remain with my original decision of Oppose.

Thanks Karlis. 06:12, 8 January 2009 (UTC)Leaving? :(
Is the leaving related to the not supporting ideas in community, and if so, is it the classified information one? I'd really hate to see you leave; you're a good editor/person. :( By the way, you can e-mail me if you don't want it on-wiki. Butterman62 (talk) 20:38, 8 January 2009 (UTC)

Account Trouble
I have tried several combination's of words and numbers with no success. I've had a name with 6 numbers at the end rejected. And I doubt someone is going to have the same 6 numbers as me with 5 different names lol.
Account Trouble
I have tried using the following names:
ratm06 ratm041808 Brianxbammo06 Brianxbammo041808 nygarxbammo09 Bkeener09
and many others.
Account Trouble
Okay, thanks for your help. I tried clearing my cache before each new attempt, I even tried switching to Internet Explorer. Nothing seems to work for me.. So I guess I will be keeping an IP name lol.
Is there any way for an Admin to create the account for me?
I will provide my name and email and DOB =/
That's my last idea lol.
Account Trouble
I need to be logged in to see email lol.
When you come back we can figure out how to contact each other, i will most likely write my AIM name to you when you respond to me.
Thank you ^.^
Everything is in working order, thanks for your help

Unblock an IP
This IP Address says that he was simply testing an edit and clicked "Preview" but seems to have misclicked and Saved the page, thus he was blocked. However, since he claims it was an accident and promises not to do it again, could you unblock his IP address? His form of "vandalism" wasn't the serious kind (profanity, inappropriate content) anyway. C.ChiamTalk 04:26, 24 January 2009 (UTC)

- I assume that this vandal has some sort of ISP where the IP address is assigned per session, within a certain range, such as 255.255.255.*. I have seen such a thing before. Do you know a way of finding out the IP address for a user? If so, we can ban the range.

this crime fighting thing is new to me, and i still haven't decided on what outfit to wear whilst in super-admin mode... btw is there a way to quickly rollback an entire series of edits/vandalism from a user/ip address? ~kytti khat– 21:10, 4 February 2009 (UTC)
- No, i'm sure there is a way to semi-automate the process, notice i clearly stated "series" as opposed to all of a users edits. With bot technology anything is possible, I guess i'm still trying to get motivated to geek around with code like i used to do decades ago before it became "work" for me (that cursed four-letter w word) ~kytti khat– 21:15, 4 February 2009 (UTC)
- I do not have AIM, sorry, but in the event I need to contact any help, I will definitely look towards IRC. I am considering shortening the time between my last RfA and the next, so in the future, and as I am often on at night ETC, I might be of a little more aid then a spectator. I think I might have a successful RfA now anyways, so I seriously might consider it. Thanks for the advice. 21:20, 4 February 2009 (UTC)
- That is an okay idea. Perhaps we should wait to see if how often the vandal attacks and if it comes to the point where I need to contact a sysops in such an event, I take you up on your offer! Thanks again. 21:32, 4 February 2009 (UTC)
- Although my last RfA was last then a month ago, in light of yesterdays attacks, I think I will attempt another one today. I hope the community will see my intentions are true to this wikia by now. 21:35, 4 February 2009 (UTC)
