== Administration ==
(yes I'm 'trying' to run for admin) I just want to know if I have to create a page or do I have to go to a specific page to run for Admins? [[User:Ikakizzu|Ikakizzu]] 14:42pm, 24 January 2016 (GMT)
: The page you want is [[Inkipedia:Requests for Rights]]. I suggest you work towards becoming a patroller first though. {{User:Kjhf/Sig}} 15:07, 24 January 2016 (UTC)
 
== CheckUser ==
In light of the recent spam, I feel this could be a valuable resource in case some of the spammers stem from the same IP address. Could we install this extension and allow admins and bureaucrats to use it? {{User:Nyargleblargle/Sig}} 22:18, 25 January 2016 (UTC)
:Prod's already working on it. 😛 --[[User:Bzeep|<font face="Corbel"><font color="#f2992e"><i>Bzeep!</i></font></font>]] [[User talk:Bzeep|<small><font face="Corbel"><font color="#f7c282">talk</font></font></small>]] 22:19, 25 January 2016 (UTC)
 
== Blogs ==
Can I just raise awareness that there are blogs, you can create your own blog or comment on others' blogs -- [[User:Adster1005|Adster1005 Talk Page]] 16:56, 27 January 2016 UTC
:Ah yeah they don't get used a ton. I can't speak for anybody else, but.. I just don't have anything to blog about, really. I think their original implementation had something to do with the fact that Wikia uses em a lot, but they don't see much use here. And I don't mean that like its a bad thing! It's a nice feature to have for community announcements and whatever else, but I guess most people just don't have much to say. :y --[[User:Bzeep|<font face="Corbel"><font color="#f2992e"><i>Bzeep!</i></font></font>]] [[User talk:Bzeep|<small><font face="Corbel"><font color="#f7c282">talk</font></font></small>]] 20:57, 27 January 2016 (UTC)
 
== pages ==
I would want to know how to get the page "Special Pages" and "User Creation Log" on my User page. [[User:Ikakizzu|Ikakizzu]] 17:56pm 1 February 2016 ''(GMT)''
:[[Special:SpecialPages]] for the list of special pages; I don't know how to link to the User Creation Log. Use squiggly brackets to transclude. {{User:Nyargleblargle/Sig}} 20:52, 1 February 2016 (UTC)
:: [[Special:Log/newusers]] {{User:Kjhf/Sig}} 10:35, 3 February 2016 (UTC)
 
== YouTube Video Links ==
I was thinking if we could put YouTube video links for help like thatsrb2dude or Nintendome on weapons or stages pages or is it against the copyrighting law. '''[[User:Ikakizzu|Ikakizzu]]''' 16:55pm, 2 February 2016 '''(GMT)'''
: Simply linking is not a breach of law (and I doubt embedded is either). It's whether we want to do it -- who's to say what makes a "good quality" video? If we start linking to DUDE or Hank then someone's gonna say "Hey, what about my 5 second video?", and at that point we'll need a policy. {{User:Kjhf/Sig}} 10:34, 3 February 2016 (UTC)
 
== Help With Making Walkthroughs ==
 
Does anyone know how to wright walkthrough? I need some help figuring out how to write walkthroughs for Octovalley. Snowwarrior92
: I think the [[Octotrooper Hideout|first mission]] has a decent walkthrough you can borrow ideas from. {{User:Kjhf/Sig}} 10:31, 3 February 2016 (UTC)
 
== Could I get an opinion? ==
 
I need an opinion on some of the work that I did for the Octovalley mission-Octosniper Ramparts. --[[User:Snowwarrior92|Snowwarrior92]] ([[User talk:Snowwarrior92|talk]]) 22:20, 5 February 2016 (UTC)
 
== What is with all the phone number spams? ==
it is bugging me, is it revenge? or spam '''[[User:Ikakizzu|Ikakizzu]]'''
:Just spam most likely; most wikis get hit with similar spam. <b>~<i>[[User:SuperHamster|<font color="#07517C">Super</font>]]</i>[[User:SuperHamster|<font color="#6FA23B">Hamster</font>]]</b> <small>[[User talk:SuperHamster|Talk]]</small> 18:48, 10 February 2016 (UTC)
 
== Category:DLC to Category:Downloadable content ==
I don't think it should be abbreviated. A bot could easily change it. [[User:Lukey140701|Luke]] ([[User talk:Lukey140701|talk]]) 13:39, 15 February 2016 (UTC)
: It's easier to type for editors adding pages to the category. We could have DLC as a redirect category. But yes, very easy for the bot to change it if that's what we wanna do. I don't mind either way. {{User:Kjhf/Sig}} 14:05, 15 February 2016 (UTC)
::Are we really expecting much more DLC anyway? It will just be gear if anything I'd say. [[User:Lukey140701|Luke]] ([[User talk:Lukey140701|talk]]) 18:41, 15 February 2016 (UTC)
:::I'm cool with moving the category, too - having the full name seems better than an abbreviation. <b>~<i>[[User:SuperHamster|<font color="#07517C">Super</font>]]</i>[[User:SuperHamster|<font color="#6FA23B">Hamster</font>]]</b> <small>[[User talk:SuperHamster|Talk]]</small> 20:11, 15 February 2016 (UTC)
::'''Support move with DLC becoming a redirect''', mainly per Kjhf. {{User:Nyargleblargle/Sig}} 21:13, 15 February 2016 (UTC)
 
== Userboxes ==
I've suddenly noticed userboxes popping up everywhere! 3 Questions:
*1) Can we make our own?
*2) Is there a page for userboxes?
*3) Will there be anymore userboxes, because I've only seen 2 - time on inkipedia and male. --[[User:Adster1005|Adster1005]] ([[User talk:Adster1005|talk]]) 18:38, 16 February 2016 (UTC)
 
:# Sure!
:# You can find out by ''[http://splatoonwiki.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3AWhatLinksHere&target=Template%3AUserbox&namespace=10 checking the templates derived]'' from [[Template:Userbox]]. We could make a category in future or have a list on the Userbox template or subpages...
:# There's more like [[Template:RankS]], and of course editors can make more.
:: {{User:Kjhf/Sig}} 19:12, 16 February 2016 (UTC)
 
How do we make them though, or is it on the template page? [[User:Adster1005|Adster1005]] ([[User talk:Adster1005|talk]]) 19:51, 16 February 2016 (UTC)
 
== Help ==
I need some help with my table. I've put it under my Splatfest Results section, but it comes up under awards, I have literally just noticed it. [[User:Adster1005|Adster1005]] ([[User talk:Adster1005|talk]]) 19:49, 16 February 2016 (UTC)
:[http://splatoonwiki.org/w/index.php?title=User:Adster1005&diff=next&oldid=59101 Looks like you forgot to put the end of the table back when you made a new row]. :b Mind if I fix it or do you want to? --[[User:Bzeep|<font face="Corbel"><font color="#f2992e"><i>Bzeep!</i></font></font>]] [[User talk:Bzeep|<small><font face="Corbel"><font color="#f7c282">talk</font></font></small>]] 20:17, 16 February 2016 (UTC)
::Go ahead, I don't mind! [[User:Adster1005|&#123;&#123;SUBST:nosubst&#124;User:YourUserName/Sig&#125;&#125;]] ([[User talk:Adster1005|talk]]) 20:21, 16 February 2016 (UTC)
:::On a side note can I have some help with my signature please [[User:Adster1005|&#123;&#123;SUBST:nosubst&#124;User:YourUserName/Sig&#125;&#125;]] ([[User talk:Adster1005|talk]]) 20:23, 16 February 2016 (UTC)
::::For a simple signature, go to [[Special:Preferences]], type this is the signature box "<nowiki>[[User:Adster1005|]] ([[User talk:Adster1005|talk]])</nowiki>", and make sure to tick treat signature as wikitext. [[User:Lukey140701|Luke]] ([[User talk:Lukey140701|talk]]) 20:34, 16 February 2016 (UTC)
:::::I want a different signature, like AmbientDinosaurs. [[User:Adster1005|&#123;&#123;SUBST:nosubst&#124;User:YourUserName/Sig&#125;&#125;]] ([[User talk:Adster1005|talk]]) 20:36, 16 February 2016 (UTC)
