Nice editing
Thanks for reviewing pages and making corrections. Nice work. Nicky Talk 19:20, October 20, 2010 (UTC)

RE:editing etiquette
Hey Gerard, welcome to the wiki! : )

I'm very sorry I haven't been able to answer your inquiry.

It is greatly appreciated that you help revert errors, inaccuracies and unobjective contributions.

We get a lot of the "incidents" you are describing, and in a lot of cases it would be detrimental to leave them in an article. These cases should be deleted. Upsetting people is unfortunate, but the quality of a wiki If you can take the time, you could leave the contributor in question a polite (diplomatic if necessary) message, explaining and/or correcting the error.

In other cases, the contribution might contain some useful information, but be wrongly "formatted". Things like tips and guides are acceptable, even if they are biased to some degree (As long as they are correct, obviously). You've probably seen the "Game tips/notes/etc" section on a lot of pages - these things are preferred there, or in a sub-sentence in the text.

Editing
I've noticed that you're doing some nice work correcting mistakes on pages. Just make sure that when editing you only save a page if you've made edits on the page. Some of your "edits" are pages that are saved without anything being changed. Thanks. Nicky Talk

I noticed that the edits were messed up. I added Blightfang Edge, but when I looked at the edit it wasn't there. I also changed the rows so there was only four in each. I think we must have been editing at the same time. Go ahead and finish what you were doing. I'll leave the page alone for now. Nicky Talk 01:06, December 1, 2010 (UTC)

Who is Gerard? (haha)
I just wanted to ask a few questions, if you don't mind. How long have you been playing pirates? What level is your pirate or pirates? How do you rate your knowledge of the game compared to other players? I would also like to know about your comfort level when it comes to editing in code. I know your strengths in editing, what do you think would be your weakness?

It would be nice to know a little more about you, if that's okay.

Thanks for all of your very helpful edits.

Nicky Talk 01:46, January 29, 2011 (UTC)

If you have any questions when it comes to editing in code, please don't hesitate to ask.

I can't believe I got the wrong spelling. Ugh. lol. Thanks for catching that. : )

Thx!
That was exactly what i meant ty sir for the info :D

hi

Promotion
Hey Gerard,

We've decided to promote you to the administrator position. In addition to your old rollback tool, this basically gives you the power to block users, as well as access to a number of site technicalities. I believe you are familiar with the ban policies, otherwise feel free to ask, about that or anything else you might need.

Congrats : )

-On the bottom of each page you should see "My Tools". You can customize that list with a variety of some very useful pages, by clicking on "Customize"

-If you ever need to restore content to a page, and rollback or undo isn't the best option, look at the page history (under My Tools) and click on a date where the page has the content that you want, then go to edit and save that page.

If you have any other questions, ask Obsidion...haha. :) Nicky Talk  23:56, February 9, 2011 (UTC)

Loot Clothing
Once again, I am sorry for attacking you earlier this week. I was just wondering but how should the loot clothing be organized? Is there a certain order to the colors or something? I want to make sure I put the loot clothing in the right order when I add them to the page. That way, I can save you the extra edits. 00:12, February 10, 2011 (UTC)

cool

Thank you so much Gerald. Now I will add the loot clothing in the proper order. 15:12, February 10, 2011 (UTC)

Clothing help
Admins, because your working on clothing I got a unformatted list of clothes(unreleased and released) that Midhav asked me to show you, which Speedway Master found. Hope it helps you with in making clothe articles.

Hey, I Just wanted to let you know that I blocked Tama for 24 hours. At first I was just going to ignore it and let it go, but he sure made a lot of useless for someone else to fix. I think a lot of people don't realize that we usually look at the edits and we know what they're doing.

Achievements can be a positive influence if they inspire legitimate edtis. Usually a block cures any repeats, but if it happens again then we need to block again. Nicky Talk
