Pooter, First of all, a big five goes out to you for creating and editing multiple articles on Grand Theft Wiki. Your contribution is very much welcomed, and you are free to edit almost anything you want on this site. After reviewing some of the articles written by you I've noticed that they have been improved significantly, the only thing that is unnecessary is the deletion of links in the text. An example would be "Lance Vance" or correctly "Lance Vance". Although we totally don't want numerous pages that have no purpose like "Police Boat" which would in turn describe the Predator, we want to retain as much information on Grand Theft Auto as possible, as this is a wiki. Please do not take this as a warning, it is not a warning but a gentle reminder. Your overall contribution to this site is very appreciated, and keep up the good work!!

(Please note by the way, you are allowed and encouraged to make your user:page however you like, and also feel free to write any questions on my talk page if you have them)

Welcome

Hi - I'd also like to add my thanks to your hard work on Grand Theft Wiki. We're getting around a thousand different people visiting each month at the moment, and it's great to see one or two of them doing something to help out, instead of just reading what's on here.

You sound like you know your stuff, so perhaps we could nominate you to become a Sysop one of these days? It's just a thought, but you're going the right way about it.

Thanks, Xenon 23:44, 14 February 2007 (UTC)

Thanks - VCS Weapons

Thanks Pooter for the update in the Vice City Stories weapon section, I havent got it for PS2 yet and I havent got is for PSP (because i believe a GTA is meat to be played on a Big Screen!) and I have been searching around for info on these weaps, so thanks for expanding the article and again I would like to say thanks for your great contributions to this web site and KEEP IT UP!!

Articles Created

Hi - Just thought I'd say you don't need to edit your user page every time you create an article. Stuff you do is always available to see at [User Contributions], so you could just link to that instead. Your user page is one of the most edited pages on the site now :) Xenon 16:45, 14 March 2007 (UTC)

I have protected your User page from being edited. Of course we appreciate your work around the rest of the site, but that was getting a bit excessive. I will un-protect it in the future so you can modify your details, but it's locked for now. Xenon 22:14, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
You can still edit any unprotected pages (thats almost all of them) but your user page will remain locked for the time being. Xenon 16:43, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

Uploads

Hey Pooter, just a little reminder that if you upload images and don't put them into a page, they are transferred to the unused files folder on the site. This may lead to accidental deletion since an admin might think they are not in use and just use up space. It would be better if you first create an article, finish it, then upload an image for the page. This is much easier after you get used to it, and the pictures are not put in the unused area. If you have any questions or further don't understand how to do this feel free to drop a comment on my page here User:47

Thanks

Re: Uploads

No, Pooter its just better if you create an article, then add a picture, rather then uploading a bunch of pictures first and then adding them to articles while you write them one by one. Understand that when you just upload a picture and dont attach it to an article it is put in Unused Files, and may get deleted if not used for a long time. So you still can upload images, but try to always attach the photo to an article so it is not automatically put in the unused files folder. As for carlCJjohnson, he had nominated himself, and is being reviewed. As a user on Grand Theft Wiki you are free to put comments about nominations Talk:Administrators, and you are encouraged to comment. Keep up the hard work and you may even be nominated to become an admin here in the near future

Stubs

Oh, I forgot, once a page contains a lot of information like the Vic Vance page, feel free to take off the stub tag. Cheers

Usernames

I think that is possible, drop Xenon a message, he might be able to help. Even though I am admin, that is one of the few things I can't do, and only the Bureaucrat can, and thats Xenon. Happy Editing, 47 01:54, 24 March 2007 (UTC), GTW Administration

Yeah I can change your name for you I think, I'll install an extension that allows me to do that. What do you want it changing to? Xenon 14:19, 24 March 2007 (UTC)
Okay I've moved it - but this is the first time it's ever been done, so there may be some problems. At the moment, Special:Recentchanges still lists all your edits as being from User:Pooter, but Special:Contributions/George lists them too. I'll try and get this sorted out, but let me know if you find anything else wrong. Email me (xenon{at}ttpn{dot}net) if you have problems logging in. Xenon 16:04, 25 March 2007 (BST)

Your page

I unprotected your page George. You can now edit it again, but dont list your contributions there because they already show up on a special page. Also you should edit articles more frequently then your user page. So far you have been working very hard on the articles, so I unlocked your page.

Happy Editing, 47 22:43, 28 March 2007 (BST), GTW Administration

Dear George, you have recently uploaded several images from WikiGTA to this site. However, WikiGTA is not a free documentation project and therefore, all content of the site is copyrighted. I kindly ask you to remove all our content from this website.

Thanks in advance, Lantyz - WikiGTA crew 12:36, 29 March 2007 (BST)

  • Are you only talking about the pics with wikigta on them? George 14:04, 29 March 2007 (BST)
No, I'm talking about all content that has been taken from WikiGTA. This includes all images, with or without the WikiGTA-tag. --Lantyz - WikiGTA crew 15:40, 29 March 2007 (BST)
