Website for Deleted/Altered/Glitched Content
It has sections for all three ME games. I haven't had a chance to really look through it yet as I just found it. Do you think this would be a worthy source for putting together Deleted Content pages here? TheUnknown285 (talk) 10:32, January 2, 2015 (UTC)


 * that's rather funny, i see them sourcing back to the wiki at times. ME1: cut equipment, which was taken care of by silverstrike and co. years ago. ME2: they basically sourced from Mass Effect 2 Cut Content. some straight cut-n-paste material absent from the wiki, but those need to be organized better on integration. ME3: empty and the zaeed bit is already floating around in talkpages.
 * happy nu year by the way. (talk) 10:57, January 2, 2015 (UTC)

Liara Legion conversation edit?
You reverted my previous edit on Liara's page on her conversation with Legion. GIven all the previous details that have been added to Liara's page already, including her casual conversations with other members of the crew why was this removed? I ask because you didn't leave a reason behind the decision.If you require a direct video link that proves the conversation does take place I can provide one...--KrimzonStriker (talk) 21:16, January 12, 2015 (UTC)


 * Here is video proof of the conversation I included. View this at the 8:52 mark. In light of this evidence I have undone your previous edit. Please leave a reason if you choose to undo it afterwards and respond to me as soon as you are available.--KrimzonStriker (talk) 21:38, January 12, 2015 (UTC)

MSV H-G I worked hard to rewrite the shoddy editing on that page and you keep throwing it back to the sorry excuse for a page that it was, Stop. Mharris22 (talk) 08:48, January 15, 2015 (UTC)


 * and you just lost your editing privileges. i did warn you to stop adding your non-improvements.


 * in case you needed pointing out why:


 * 1) repetitive writing. you kept adding what happened to the ship at the intro when it's explicitly spelled out just a paragraph or two below.
 * 2) you kept sneaking in fan observations in the main body of the text when it was already noted at the trivia section.
 * 3) bits of noticeable grammar fail. "improvements"? the article was fine as is before you partially butchered it.

Global navigation
Don't you agree that it currently sticks out too much from the basic style of the wiki (blue, pretty much)? Can you change it to match said style by messing with the CSS in Wikia.css? klad (need to talk?) 03:31, January 17, 2015 (UTC)

 * Optimal formatting
 * What do you mean? What are these factors you speak of? Free me of my ignorance pls, because what I'm seeing there is an oversized image pushing text too the far left of the article for eight lines.


 * PS: This ignorance stems from having edited at more traditional (for lack of a better word) wikis; you know, where images are typically consistent in size (200/250px), so I'm kind of confused as to how some source code formatting is done here. Plus, the MoS says nothing about this optimal formatting you speak of.


 * Tl;dr? Don't blame me. :/ klad (need to talk?) 03:49, January 17, 2015 (UTC)


 * 1) we are not other wikis. this point can't be repeated over and over enough. the focus is on having pictures reasonably viewable at first glance, not on enforcing a "standard" size on them.
 * 2) it's a longish picture with text on it. any smaller and it becomes unreadable. any larger is actually still acceptable (to a point) since the content rail does expand for people with wide monitors. use ctrl+- resizing for a practical demonstration.
 * 3) fluid layout specs mean 700px minimum and 1280px max on content rail. "squeezed" would be 80-90% of the picture hogging all of 700px and/or one or two short words per line. more obviously so if it's something like a 4:3 ratio image. this isn't it.

User templates
But how do I make own my template with my user?


 * say you have some markup on User:Jaketynan/whatever. you want to use it on User:Jaketynan/Shepard. on the latter page, just reference the former by invoking it as  .


 * please note that article categories are not to be used on userpages, so be mindful of whatever you're planning on copypasting from the wiki's templates. wikia has tons of beginner primers regarding this sort of thing, read and understand them before jumping ahead and messing with things you barely know about.

Comment on my talk page
Hey Temp,

I saw that an editor asked something on our talk pages. Even if I wansn't agreeing with his point, he still has the right to put a message on our talk pages. Why did you removed it from my page then?--DeldiRe (talk) 08:40, January 23, 2015 (UTC)


 * the moment he used a sockpuppet instead of waiting out his block or just plain opening a communication attempt on his own talkpage he permanently forfeited his editing rights on the wiki. which means i get to treat it as spam/vandalism from a spammer/vandal (which considering the content it certainly is).
 * since it's your talkpage, you can restore/respond to it as you see fit (personally, i don't see the point - it turns out he had a bunch of "sleeper accounts" here anyway). 08:56, January 23, 2015 (UTC)


 * Please don't remove messages from Talk pages. It's bad practice; removing them is the user's prerogative. Tullis (talk) 12:28, January 23, 2015 (UTC)


 * I understand your reasons Temp but as Tullis just said, I would have prefer to remove it myself so that we can fight together against those behaviors. --DeldiRe (talk) 08:45, January 26, 2015 (UTC)

To be fair, he also insulted TempEditor78, stating he "might be mentally impaired". But I see your point about the talk page policy. --173.58.251.107 19:37, January 23, 2015 (UTC)

And then he also removed the content of TempEditor78's main page to state that "I Am The Hitler Of The Wiki" and other related things and a warning to others to avoid the wiki. I'm pretty sure that that won't get him points. --173.58.251.107 01:31, January 24, 2015 (UTC)

Any news from the Maps plug-in for the wiki? Thanks in advance. --DeldiRe (talk) 14:28, January 26, 2015 (UTC)

I would suggest to add a news (and probably on Twitter account aswell, I know its wikia staff who handle it) about the promo for MEI. IGN gives it for free on IOS during the month: http://www.ign.com/prime/promo/mass-effect-infiltrator-free --DeldiRe (talk) 17:19, February 11, 2015 (UTC)

Asari Gender
hey hey hey!! what's up with that! why does the Asari article have to say gender? is it some community guideline? are we primarily going off a data book here or something? oh crap, its because my stuff was conjecture, right? There's no official statement on Asari sex or gender much more than that one Liara line, right? cause if it's just that, I'll leave the article alone or w/e. I just want to make sure there's not any personal belief stuff getting in the way here

--BeccArt (talk) 04:02, February 24, 2015 (UTC)


 * read the codex entries (bioware) and the tons of discussion (fans) that went into this topic years before. swathes of the article are taken verbatim from the codex and any differences are already noted as is.


 * this is the bottom line: bioware is insistent on monogender - THEY call the shots on their own constructed lore, not you or me or any of us regular fans. if it means anything, just go with the scenario of a decidedly homosexual krogan male falling for an asari's charms.

Regarding my edit’s reversion
Hello. Can you please explain why you reverted my changes on Citadel: Asari Consort?

You’re an admin on this wiki all right, and have spent some time watching after it and developing it; but reverting other editors’ changes without even notifying them about it or bothering to explain what was wrong with the contribution in the first place will likely lose you community members and quality. Imfego (talk) 23:54, March 21, 2015 (UTC)


 * actually it is up to the editing party (-you-) to justify changes to an already ok article. unnecessary changes are discouraged when the article was fine as it is. the wiki has its own conventions and editing guides, read and familiarize yourself through the links on your userpage please. 09:34, March 22, 2015 (UTC)


 * Does that mean that if I re-edit it and explain the reasoning behind it, you’ll be less likely to delete it again? Also, can you please mention precisely which MoS articles are relevant in this case? Reading through all of them to make you keep one single edit of mine alone is not what I’d deem very productive. Imfego (talk) 15:09, March 24, 2015 (UTC)

Edit reversion of Castle Arcade article
A few days ago, you reverted all of my edits to the article on Castle Arcade. If this is because of how I punctuated this one range of values, I would like to let you know 1) you don't have to revert everything I did just to get rid of a small problem, and 2) placing an en dash between two numbers is the proper way to represent a range of values (see here), and a hyphen is best used when an en dash is unavailable. —M.C.Tales (talk) 18:53, March 29, 2015 (UTC)

Community App Release
Hi Tempeditor78,

My name is Nico and I'm from the Game team here at Wikia.

We are happy to inform you that your community now has an app in the Apple and Android store. Links can be found here;

Apple: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/wikia-mass-effect-fan-app/id956803053?ls=1&mt=8 Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.wikia.singlewikia.masseffect

Please see this help page that will explain how and where to manage your content in your community app, and also ways to promote your Community App on your own community.

If you have any questions about the Community App itself, how to manage content on it, or how to promote it, please write to Special:Contact.

Please inform the other admins about the release,

Knakveey (talk) 19:47, April 8, 2015 (UTC)


 * i see the iOS version is up and about. thanks and congratulations on behalf of prospective users of the app (don't own any apple devices myself).
 * i've bootstrapped the icons in my spare time some months ago and realized some of them don't really look good in the released screenshots, so i was wondering a little if the screenshots can be updated to something more presentable in the future once one of us get around to working on them. not really a pressing question nor suggestion for a software feature, just genuinely curious. 19:58, April 8, 2015 (UTC)

Hi Tempeditor,

You can make changes to the app by visiting Special:Promote and Special:CuratedContent. Hope this helps you out :)

Vent Specialist
If you are planning to have a certain ending/mass effect 3 import, you will want to know who can die in the vents. For example, Miranda can never be sent into vents. That's not "anyone else". To use second fireteam leader as an example, you can choose anyone so in that case "anyone else" is correct. Thanks.
 * irrelevant. the ideal choices have already been explicitly spelled out. declaring "anyone else" automatically excludes the people not listed as "ideal" regardless of the number of other choices and is meant to be a shorthand to just focus on who's ideal.

I disagree with your reasoning. And I don't think it is your job to police this. Paul2O (talk) 23:49, April 14, 2015 (UTC)

Look at this: Administrator powers should be used to help keep the wiki clear of vandalism, spam, and users who make malicious edits, but not for simple disagreements between users acting in good faith. Ideally an admin shouldn't be considered "in charge". The ideal admin is just someone who is trusted to have a few extra buttons and to use them for the benefit of the Wikia community.


 * actually it -is- my job to preserve article integrity in all forms. the wording was not -my- reasoning, that was the (valid and logical) reasoning of people who figured it out way before you even became aware of this game.


 * you, in effect, made an unnecessary edit. unnecessary edits = bannable. you were well on the way to the banhammer if you continued your course without discussion. if -you- get too uppity by continuing to push -your- version of pages without discussion, i can and i will block you for edit warring. as you haven't passed that threshold yet and you actually made some effort at discussion unlike the vast majority of one-time users i had to deal with, your editing privileges are still fine.
