Missed weapon demo video
You actually forgot to update the Firefin Splatterscope demo video. P.J. GT (talk) 16:05, 16 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Thank you! I edited by accident the Splatterscope page twice. It is now fixed. ShaharSig2.pngShaharSigtalk2.png 16:08, 16 July 2020 (UTC)

I also found the Sorella Brella demo video shows the regular Splat Brella. Also that page's gallery, quotes and version history sections show the Splat Brella's as well. I tried to fix it but the code showed the Sorella Brella's content. Can you somehow fix it? P.J. GT (talk) 15:13, 17 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Fixed it. The data section extraction didn't include ending so the rest of the page got copied as well. ShaharSig2.pngShaharSigtalk2.png 15:34, 17 August 2020 (UTC)

Thanks a bunch my man! P.J. GT (talk) 15:36, 17 August 2020 (UTC)
 * No problem. :) ShaharSig2.pngShaharSigtalk2.png 15:43, 17 August 2020 (UTC)

The same thing happened with the Tenta Sorella Brella! Can you fix it? P.J. GT (talk) 02:41, 18 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Same problem, same solution. fixed. ShaharSig2.pngShaharSigtalk2.png 03:04, 18 August 2020 (UTC)

Someone's falsely impersonating Me!
This new user: P.J. GT II is falsely impersonating me! He also falsely told GloverMist that I'm impersonating him. Which is a red flag because I've been on this wiki since March 2020 and made positive edits. Can you deal with them? P.J. GT (talk) 12:40, 25 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Thanks for reporting! They've been blocked for 1 week and further actions would be taken if they return to harass. ShaharSig2.pngShaharSigtalk2.png 13:13, 25 July 2020 (UTC)

Vandal Warning!
2 new vandals in NintendoOfficial and Mario Fart DS are vandalizing talk pages and making rubbish mainspace edits. (They are both the same fart vandal!) P.J. GT (talk) 01:11, 31 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Thanks, they've been taking care of. ShaharSig2.pngShaharSigtalk2.png

It's happening again! The same fart person is continually doing this crud every day! P.J. GT (talk) 01:33, 3 August 2020 (UTC)

It is happening again! For like the 100th time! The fart vandal is at it again! They vandalized the Annaki Beret and Drizzler pages FYI.P.J. GT (talk) 01:37, 8 August 2020 (UTC)


 * Unfortunately, not much we can do as they get renewal IP everyday. We have been blocking them without warning. Their vandals are pretty tame and low key that they don't clash with the abuse filters or blacklist. ShaharSig2.pngShaharSigtalk2.png 02:22, 8 August 2020 (UTC)

I have HAD IT with this vandal talking about farts and falsely impersonating Staff Members!! They've been abusing multiple accounts and doing this crud since July! Something must be done NOW! P.J. GT (talk) 23:34, 26 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Like all vandals, they're annoying while it lasts, but they will eventually get bored, It'll be an arms race otherwise if we add user-specific filters. ShaharSig2.pngShaharSigtalk2.png 02:26, 27 August 2020 (UTC)

Apologies
Sorry for removing the Dora section from the Splatoon series guitarist page. I thought it was added by the vandal. No hard feelings? P.J. GT (talk) 23:31, 5 August 2020 (UTC)
 * No hard feelings at all. Might be better to use the undo button at 'history' or if you'll get patroller rights, the revert button in recent changes. Keep up the great work. ShaharSig2.pngShaharSigtalk2.png 23:53, 5 August 2020 (UTC)

Thank You!
Thank you so much for blocking/banning @PhineasAndFerbYes CaillouNo! He/she undid all of my hard work to try to be funny. It wasn’t. I want to extend my gratitude.

Best regards, “Octoseeker Violist” Meena (美奈) 15:35, 6 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Thank you for your kind words, It's been my pleasure. If this occurs again, don't hesitate to report to one of the admins so they can block and revert their edits. ShaharSig2.pngShaharSigtalk2.png 16:08, 6 August 2020 (UTC)

That's what admins are for ;) “Octoseeker Violist” Meena (美奈) 20:24, 6 August 2020 (UTC)

How can I undo edits?
I can't seem to find the undo feature on a page's history section. Can you help me? P.J. GT (talk) 02:14, 8 August 2020 (UTC)
 * It's suppose to be upon clicking the History tab of the page around the end of the revision. Try to refresh or login again, I see it on my end. ShaharSig2.pngShaharSigtalk2.png 02:22, 8 August 2020 (UTC)

I did what you suggested but couldn't find it. Any other way? P.J. GT (talk) 02:39, 8 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Another place you can see it is in recent changes when you click the diff button of an edit, you can see for the current revision on the right, there is an undo button.  ShaharSig2.pngShaharSigtalk2.png 13:10, 8 August 2020 (UTC)

Sorry, I couldn't find it. Maybe it's a patroller only thing? P.J. GT (talk) 13:40, 8 August 2020 (UTC)
 * I see why you can't see that option. This option is visible in Desktop view. At the bottom of the page, there is a button to switch between Desktop to Mobile view. If you are on Desktop view, you'll be able to see that button. ShaharSig2.pngShaharSigtalk2.png 14:02, 8 August 2020 (UTC)

It worked! Thanks! P.J. GT (talk) 14:26, 8 August 2020 (UTC)

Competitive Weapons Pages
I just created the first of what I hope will be many Competitive-focused pages on weapons in Splatoon and Splatoon 2:

Competitive:Splattershot Jr.

Before I continue making more, I would like to have input how these pages are to look. Besides the Quick facts, Recommended abilities, Use, and Countermeasures sections, I also have the Data section (which would look nice if converted to tabular form IMO) as well. However, if you would like these pages to look different from the original weapons pages in some manner, then let me know how and I will adjust when I begin the competitive pages for the other weapons.

DaDoc540 (talk) 15:58, 13 August 2020 (UTC)


 * Any subjective matters should be moved to the competitive namespace. I don't think it's necessary to repeat the information that is in the main space. Maybe just the infoboxes for a general idea. Splitting it to Splatoon and Splatoon 2 sections can also help as some weapons got their kits switched from aggressive to supportive and vice versa.


 * About the Data section, Hedddy has been working on that and it's data that got pulled from the game files so it's raw data that is kept on the main space, if you want, you can include it in competitive space too but I don't think it's necessary. If you have any suggestions like switching to tabular form, might wanna dicuss with him whether in his talk page or discord.


 * Adding category to the competitive articles would help with sorting like  or something similar to that. Also, a way we can link from the main page could be a section that is dedicated to Strategy (something similar to Template:Gallery).


 * These are my suggestions, you are welcome to discuss it more with us on Discord where others might have some more input. ShaharSig2.pngShaharSigtalk2.png 17:42, 13 August 2020 (UTC)

I don't think you should say weather it's aggressive or supportive. A lot of people will disagree. Eminence (talk) 10:35, 25 August 2020 (UTC)

Weapon demo problem
For the S2 N-ZAP '83 demo video it won't play because the "Null" thing is preventing it. Can you fix it? P.J. GT (talk) 20:40, 16 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Thanks for telling me! Video was not saved properly to Public. It is fixed now. ShaharSig2.pngShaharSigtalk2.png 20:45, 16 August 2020 (UTC)

100x
I noticed you won a 100x battle. Good job even though you are on egg. Eminence (talk) 10:39, 23 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Thanks, I appreciate it. ShaharSig2.pngShaharSigtalk2.png 15:26, 23 August 2020 (UTC)

Reccommended ability charts
Thank you for the advice telling me to be more careful about which abilities I put in the "recommended abilities" charts, but whose idea was it to remove from the  chart or  from the  chart? I think those abilities work well with these weapons. Where can I discuss this with the community?AlexD830 (talk) 01:39, 25 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Hi AlexD830, Discussions can be made on Ink Pump, at Discord on #Inkipedia channel, or the relative discussion page (Competitive talk:Kensa Dynamo Roller/Competitive talk:Aerospray PG). You can also see who made the changes by pressing the History tab button and see all the revisions of that page (User SquidSistersAreBestGirls made those edits). User DaDoc540 has been adding most of the strategy sections and took the information from sources that can be found in the references section. At the end of the day, recommended abilities are subjective. Something that might work for one might not be as succesfull for the other as the abilities are to strengthen the player's playstyle and their weapon. We should try to get the recommended abilities for each weapon by statistics, what works better for that weapon, whether by effectiveness, popularity or top level play/meta. ShaharSig2.pngShaharSigtalk2.png 02:09, 25 August 2020 (UTC)

Sorry, but I can't seem to find it anywhere.AlexD830 (talk) 18:46, 27 August 2020 (UTC)
 * By it you mean the History tab button? It’s at the top right of the page. ShaharSig2.pngShaharSigtalk2.png 05:03, 28 August 2020 (UTC)

About PJ’s talk...
Should P.J. GT’s talk page be protected to autoconfirmed? It seems to have been a primary target for vandalism of late. 01:28, 26 August 2020 (UTC)
 * It would kind of show the vandal that their harass is working. Best would be to block and revert their edits. I offered to take some actions towards the specific vandal but with no avail. ShaharSig2.pngShaharSigtalk2.png 01:53, 26 August 2020 (UTC)
 * I get your reasoning. It is getting to be a bit of a problem so I thought it might be good to suggest it, despite the fact that you might have thought of it before. 20:40, 26 August 2020 (UTC)

Hero Octobrush
I need help to change all places where it says Herobrush say Hero Octobrush. It is called the Hero Octobrush in in the game. It's all for accuracy. Eminence (talk) 17:18, 28 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Upon another check, the name of this weapon is Herobrush Replica. There is no need for moving its titles. ShaharSig2.pngShaharSigtalk2.png 23:32, 28 August 2020 (UTC)

Sorry :( Eminence (talk) 01:24, 29 August 2020 (UTC)

Custom Splatfest Invitation
Hello!, I’m Splatoon635 and I’m inviting you to participate in the next custom Splatfest!!, starts this Saturday!, if you want to participate go to my talk page and say me in what team you want to be!, for more information go to my user page and search the section Custom Splatfest, there are the rules and the theme!, see you there! Splatoon635 (talk) 21:08, 31 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Thank you for the invitation but I play Splatoon at random times so I'd not count me in. ShaharSig2.pngShaharSigtalk2.png 11:25, 3 September 2020 (UTC)

Merge the Competitive Weapon Pages
We should merge all the competitive weapon pages for one type of weapon. For example put all competitive Aerospray pages under Competitive:Aerospray. It&#39;s Eminence! (talk) 23:26, 2 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Although the main weapon might work the same but its kit might make it played differently. Take Junior and Kensa Junior for example, same main weapon but their kit makes them play a different playstyle. ShaharSig2.pngShaharSigtalk2.png 11:26, 3 September 2020 (UTC)
 * I thought that you could have a different section for Aerospray MG, Aerospray RG, and Aerospray PG all in the same page. We just take the Aerospray pages and put them under Aerospray Competitive. We also need to add links to the Competitive weapon pages. It's way to hard to find them. Eminence  S2 Brand Takoroka.png ( Chatter ) 11:11, 7 September 2020 (UTC)
 * It would just be cluttered with information as they are different weapons with different kits and playstyle. Currently you can reach the strategy page through the strategy section in the main space or through categories. There's been a suggestion to add other variants to the infobox which would make it easier time to find variants of the same weapon but currently only few strategy pages are up. Maybe later in the future I'll add them or we'll make a navbox. ShaharSig2.pngShaharSigtalk2.png 21:29, 7 September 2020 (UTC)
 * I'm trying to make a Competitive:Weapon disambiguation page but I need all the links to the strategy pages. Also, I'm really confused about why Luke26 splatted my page and said that drafts are not allowed on the mainspace. Thanks! Eminence  S2 Brand Takoroka.png ( Chatter ) 16:05, 8 September 2020 (UTC)
 * The "Strategy" or "Competitive:Weapon" pages you created is doing what a category should be doing: Category:Strategy. That's why it's not necessary to create a page with list of them. ShaharSig2.pngShaharSigtalk2.png 21:54, 8 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Didn't see that page sorry. Eminence  S2 Brand Takoroka.png ( Chatter ) 10:23, 9 September 2020 (UTC)

Vandal Warnings!
The users; "PJ GT" (Impersonating me), "SmallHamster" (Impersonating SuperHamster) and "You smell like farts" are vandalizing! Can you block them? I've already notified Fumple about this. P.J. GT (talk) 03:10, 7 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Dealt with. Thanks for the help! ~Super Hamster  Talk 03:57, 7 September 2020 (UTC)

Thank you for reporting and for dealing with it while I was snoozing. :) 21:31, 7 September 2020 (UTC)

WayslideCool
I was looking at the staff page and I noticed that patroller WayslideCool has not made an edit since July 31. Shouldn't he be marked as partially active? Thanks! Eminence  ( Chatter ) 10:25, 9 September 2020 (UTC)

Add Rassicas to that list. Eminence  ( Chatter ) 10:28, 9 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Thanks for letting me know, I'll update their status. ShaharSig2.pngShaharSigtalk2.png 11:50, 9 September 2020 (UTC)

BAN
Ban user SplatFan08 he is impersonating user SplatFan09 and saying that he is SplatFan09 and spamming SplatFan09's talk! Eminence  ( Chatter ) 11:18, 9 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Thanks for reporting! I've dealt with it, keep it up. :-) ShaharSig2.pngShaharSigtalk2.png 11:50, 9 September 2020 (UTC)

Splat squid gang boss
Can you give an official warning to user Splat squid gang boss? He has put spam and edits unrelated to the wiki onto talk pages and I'm getting really annoyed. Thanks! Eminence  ( Chatter ) 14:17, 9 September 2020 (UTC)

Help me splat squid gang boss is bullying me because I deleted his inappropriate edits. He put spam in my talk. help pls. Eminence  ( Chatter ) 14:56, 9 September 2020 (UTC)

Thank you so much for banning him!!! Eminence  ( Chatter ) 15:11, 9 September 2020 (UTC)

About you recent vandal block...
I think the 1 week block for "Stephen Quire" isn't right. Because this user put literal death threats on talk pages (this person may be the same fart vandal from past days since July). Can you change their block's expiration date to indefinite? Please and thanks. P.J. GT (talk) 02:50, 13 September 2020 (UTC)

Yes please do that and then fix the vandal problem. How about not letting users edit the mainspace until they have been approved by an administrator. Thanks! xmplr  ( tlkr ) 14:47, 13 September 2020 (UTC)


 * As far as I know, they create multiple accounts every day so the length of the block doesn't matter. About not letting new users before an approval is a problematic solution as it effects the easy access for everyone to edit. 21:39, 13 September 2020 (UTC)

Vandal Warnings!
The users; Can of farts, FAGGOT FAG, Justin Bieber, You smell like poop, Rainbow farts, WikipedialsUs, P.J. GT's backup account (impersonating me), and The real OctoseekerStringsVLA (impersonating her) are vandalizing! Can you block them? P.J. GT (talk) 00:29, 24 September 2020 (UTC)

I've also found out why this vandal keeps coming back, they are using a VPN (Virtual Private Network) to hide their real IP address. Can something be done about this? P.J. GT (talk) 00:50, 24 September 2020 (UTC)


 * Thanks for reporting the vandals. The most we can do is block and revert their edits as I've been told there is no efficient solution against abuse of multiple ipv6 address users from VPN. They are a problem for multiple wikis and I'm not much of an expert on web security so I can't really say of what can be done to tighten up the security. 02:49, 24 September 2020 (UTC)

You forgot to delete “Rainbow Fart’s” user page, FYI. P.J. GT (talk) 20:45, 24 September 2020 (UTC)

New vandals in "Stinky farts", "Fart porn and c u m", "coronavirus", "Farting" and "REAL P.J. GT" (impersonating me)! Block them please! P.J. GT (talk) 00:24, 25 September 2020 (UTC)

New vandal! User "FIRE1232" (impersonating FLAME1232) is vandalizing! Block them please. (I've already notified Heddy about this) P.J. GT (talk) 03:04, 27 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Thanks for letting me know. They've been blocked. 03:13, 29 September 2020 (UTC)

Splat squid
I have given user Splat squid gang boss (Squid dummy 98) another warning but he is breaching INK:TALK again so can you stop him? Eminence  ( Chatter ) 17:15, 24 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Thanks, they've been taken care of for now. 03:13, 29 September 2020 (UTC)

Missed vandal.
You forgot to block User: "TheFartFreak". FYI. P.J. GT (talk) 06:45, 28 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Thanks, it's been taken care of. 03:13, 29 September 2020 (UTC)

Rush
Why did you delete the Glowflies link on Rush? Eminence  ( Chatter ) 17:38, 28 September 2020 (UTC)
 * There's not enough information to justify Glowflies to have its own page, so it redirects to the Rush page. If we link in Rush page to its own page it create a never ending loop. 14:57, 29 September 2020 (UTC)

Activity
The status of users FLAME1232 and Inkrid should be changed to partially active. They have not edited since August 26 and August 24 respectively. Thanks! Eminence  ( Chatter ) 00:48, 1 October 2020 (UTC)

Also someone has put in a request for a name change. Thanks! Eminence  ( Chatter ) 15:28, 1 October 2020 (UTC)

Sorry FLAME1232 just made an edit so he is active again. Eminence  ( Chatter ) 22:08, 1 October 2020 (UTC)
 * Thanks for alerting about activities, The wiki is a bit slow when it comes to activity so I'd consider partially active after 3 months rather than 1 month when there isn't any updates or high traffic in the wiki. People might also have other priorities and life. The 6 months mark is a bit more important to me if some staff members need to get demoted if they haven't contributed. 06:45, 9 October 2020 (UTC)

Barnsquid ID
Hello!, I create a barnsquid and I want to know how to do an ID for be more easier to use (make it an official barnsquid) the ID will be “99” because is a barnsquid for users that reach level 99 and proved it, so, can you help me? :D Splat635 16:59, 1 October 2020 (UTC)
 * Try to follow the examples here in this template and see how you can assign an ID to it. Might need to move the file's name to the appropriate template format. Try to figure out on your own and if you don't understand something, let me know. 06:45, 9 October 2020 (UTC)

Clash
Can you get this image File:S2 Clash Blaster promo render.jpg into the infobox on the page Competitive:Clash Blaster Neo. P.S. The history is confusing I messed up but fixed it. Eminence  ( Chatter ) 15:46, 8 October 2020 (UTC)
 * I moved the file's name to fit the strategy infobox, the page looks empty without information for it to be linked from main space. Try to add information that has ground to it and based on the weapon's capabilities and link to competitive plays or tips. Also before creating pages, make sure they have enough information in them to deserve their own pages. You can follow Competitive:Splattershot Jr. as an example. 06:45, 9 October 2020 (UTC)
 * I was planning to do that, I just ran out of time. Sorry. Eminence  S2 Brand Takoroka.png ( Chatter ) 10:58, 9 October 2020 (UTC)
 * It's all good, just saying for next time. Thanks for contributing. 11:18, 9 October 2020 (UTC)

Splatoon 2 Weapon Demonstrations
Congrats on completing the weapon demonstration project. That was a very large project and a very helpful one too. (I know this is overdo but I started using Inkipedia in July) SquidKid2000 (Talk) (talk) 20:28, 13 October 2020 (UTC)
