Hi, welcome to Mass Effect Wiki! Thanks for your edit to the Talk:Priority: Cerberus Headquarters page.

Be sure to check out our Style Guide and Community Guidelines to help you get started, and please leave a message on my talk page if I can help with anything! -- SpartHawg948 (Talk) 14:01, 24 March 2012

HUD Elements
Note that we need planet, system, and cluster images, however we also need them without HUD elements. Things like the lines and the mouse are not acceptable in the images. Lancer1289 15:48, March 25, 2012 (UTC)

Prepare to receive (horribly) cropped screenshots then. Temporaryeditor78 00:48, March 26, 2012 (UTC)
 * Actually what I'm seeing isn't that bad.
 * I should also point out that on the upload screen, if you put in the repective categories in the "Summary" field, they will auto add to the images once it is uploaded. This will save time and prevent clogging of the RC and double edits. Lancer1289 23:19, March 26, 2012 (UTC)

Language Policy
Note that we do in fact have a Langauge Policy here. We do not tolerate inappropriate or crude language here, especially twice in one comment. Further violations of this policy will lead to a ban. Lancer1289 14:12, March 26, 2012 (UTC)

This will be your final warning about our language policy. If you violate the policy again, then you will face a ban. Lancer1289 18:53, June 18, 2012 (UTC)

Asteria
Since you're posting images for all of the ME3 planets, I wanted to point out that Asteria will also need an image. It's in a system that appeared in ME2, but the planet itself was missing until ME3, so you might easily have missed it. -- Commdor (Talk) 02:57, March 27, 2012 (UTC)
 * done. Temporaryeditor78 03:09, March 27, 2012 (UTC)

DUMBASS
whats your deal? Facepalm?? read the Codex dumbass
 * How mature. First of all, if you could still read this after being banned, what you type is a whole load of speculative rubbish in there.


 * "They were created by the Reapers to maintain the space station, so that the organic inhabitants wouldn't discover its true function(s)." - Created by Reapers? Really? Where does it say?


 * " Keepers were once a sentient, organic specie that was apparently harvested and re-purposed by the Reapers." - Where does it say that in the Codex?


 * Frankly speaking, your "contributions" so far, if I can still call it that, its neither helpful, informative or accurate.

 * i'll just speculate that i'm dealing with an autistic adhd-riddled (man-)child who's obviously POV-pushing hazy and dubious information across the wiki and act on it in the only way imaginable.

Planet View images
Hey, nice work on updating the planet images! I've also tagged some planet articles with poor quality and resolution images and wondering if you could help retake the screenshots for those too? — Teugene (Talk) 08:28, April 11, 2012 (UTC)


 * working on it / updating as i play/want to / all upcoming caps @ max antialiasing/aaf/etc settings (amd catalyst and ingame) unless visibly crap in appearance — Temporaryeditor78 08:46, April 11, 2012 (UTC)
 * That's great! I was feeling finicky about some images with really horrible/weird anti-aliasing and wanted to tag them all. But there were just too many, so I only tag the worst of the images. — Teugene (Talk) 09:23, April 11, 2012 (UTC)

Zymandis picture.
Hey, thanks for the image addition of Zymandis. Though, is it possible to screenshot a picture of him from the front? I don't think Zymandis would be happy to have an image of his behind in the article. :) 04:22, May 29, 2012 (UTC)
 * i considered shooting from the front but there's just too many cons against it (1. too near and zymandis' bulk obscures the environment making him difficult to distinguish from other hanar, too far and the wall clips immediately, and there's no middle ground given his closeness to the computer screens// 2. npcs block the other angles // 3. the only good (semi)frontal shot has a very nondescript background// 4. without the screens zymandis is just another generic hanar model in a generic-looking environment). the only possible shots are from top-down, sideways and from behind like the one i posted - for completeness' sake here's the best i can come up with:    Temporaryeditor78 06:02, May 29, 2012 (UTC)

Something I noticed about your signature
Hey, I noticed something weird about your signature. In quite of a few talk pages, your signature becomes a jumbled mess. It kind of looks like Asian characters spreading out vertically from it, spilling over into other lines of text. Yours is the only one that seems to do it (mine, Commdor's Lancer's, Mr. Mittens', etc. seem to work fine). Here's a screen shot of what it's doing:. TheUnknown285 (talk) 07:04, July 21, 2012 (UTC)

Yeah, I have noticed this as well, but I just thought it was some sort of unique signature you use sometimes.--Legionwrex (talk) 07:21, July 21, 2012 (UTC)

it's one of those vagaries of the internet. highly amusing unicode behavior involving subscript/superscript stacking, combining three different character sets, and t̤͉̲͕͂͡h̢͎̜͛̅ė̱̙̻̳ ̺̈́̽̌e͓̣̘̙͔̺͍ͯ̾̃͢ň͔͇͓͚͔̜̉̍ͦ́d̷̵̢͎̘̣̖̮͓̳ͥ͋͛͑̾ ̨̨͓͖͎̟ͫͦ̒ͫ̏̿̌ͭ̚o̥̹͕̟̜̣̒͂ͫ̾́͜f͓̹̰̱͖̹͉̲̎̔̇̎ ̴̛̫͙̠ͩ̅̍͊̋̈́̾͊̂ẗ̴̨̞̥̮̟̱̙̳́ͬ̄h̡̩̲̑ͧē̌̆͑ͬͦ̀͟͏͍̣̱̞̘͖̺̯̟ ̵̥̹͎̖̤̩ͩ̽̓̅͑̏̆̾͘w̴̛͈̠̲̪̫̥ͤ̊́̊̕o̸̡̳̳̳ͭͦ̎ͭͬ͜ṙ̛͓̹̮̣͚̣̳̃̈́̄͘ḻ̸̢͕̣͈̮͚̪̈́ͧͧ̒̂ͥd̛̰͖̲͚̞̀ͩͨ͗͌͆ͮ̀͟, apparently. nothing major, i assure you. :3 T̴̴͕̲̞̳̖̼̱͒͛̎͒ͫ̃ͧeͩ̈̽̈҉͓̝̰̼̦̫̤̀͠m̫̪̪̯̻͎̫̅̇̓̇͌̚p̸̙̝̓̓͌ͨ͆ͣͥ̂̕o͒̽͐̽͏̞̬̻͕͔͕͚̰͍͠͞ṙ̢̞͚͈̹̰ͨ̓ͭ̈́̌ạ̢̧̪̹̺̺̣̹̲͂͆̏ͪͨ͒ͭř̹͈͜͠y̷͍̻̜̹̼̾̽̈́e̵̹̼̟̦͚͐̈́͌͘d͉̲̣̻͉̱͗̅ḭ̷̻̆͋̆̓̔͝t̨͍̦̫̗͂̅̍̋̆ͩ͝ộ̫̟̬̳̝̲̾ͫ̒̿ͮ̑̚rͯ̎ͨͭ̄̿̽͛҉̠̫̱̠̘̘̲́ͅ7̩̻ͤͩͨ͝͡8̜̣̙͇̻ͨ͛͛̆͒̆̽̒͐͜͡ ͥ̍̉̃̇ͥ̓ͨ͏̕҉̥̹͓̗̤̠̖̤ (talk) 10:23, July 21, 2012 (UTC)

Specific ME weapon/armor images
You have the PC version of Mass Effect, right? If it isn't too much trouble, there are several very specific images we need from that game which I'm hoping you can obtain. The first is a shot for the Cobra pistol obtained only through console commands (from Hahne-Kedar Shadow Works; scroll down the page, you'll see where there's an image missing). The other four that are needed are shots of the turian and krogan variants of Predator Armor. You'll notice that where we have missing images, they appear as redlinks in the articles. The reason for that is the ME armor and weapon info templates are set up to display images only with very specific file names. If you can obtain these images (which should match the style of the other images in those articles), they will need to be uploaded with those exact file names: File:Cobra P.png File:Light-turian-Predator.png File:Medium-turian-Predator.png File:Medium-krogan-Predator.png File:Heavy-krogan-Predator.png If you can get these five images, then we'll finally have an image for all ME weapons and armor. -- Commdor (Talk) 09:19, July 25, 2012 (UTC)


 * challenge accepted, halfway delivered. don't have a 1080p monitor so i had to resort to a bit of creative tweaking to get most of wrex and garrus (particularly wrex) inside the shots without showing any HUD elements (impossible to remove them with toggleHUD+show scaleform unless there's some other command i don't know yet).


 * also, i noticed that the model for pistols looks like a custom shepard. won't be approximating that look any time soon, so i went with a hooded kaidan + ursa armor, hope you don't mind. dealt with.


 * until somebody comes along with a better gaming system than i have with the same predilection for taking pictures, i guess we'll have to make do with these for a while...


 * and if i may ask, what happened to the original images there (was under the impression whoever uploaded the other images completed the sets)? there was none, or they got deleted somehow?

 * Those images used to be redirects to the images for Mantis Armor, since they look exactly the same. I'm not sure why they turned into red links...probably because of Wikia changes. Anyway, I'm glad there will be images now! It's been bothering me for several months. Trandra (talk) 11:46, July 25, 2012 (UTC)

Screen caps
Just wanted to say, they're awesome.

Also, how did you get the ME2 helmet Kaidan wears (blue light eye holes) in ME1? Phylarion (talk) 18:22, July 30, 2012 (UTC)


 * appreciate it. :>
 * that helmet kaidan wears is actually from ME1 by the way. just ursa armor in toxic/zero atmosphere. also, i see now that the model for pistols is actually just kaidan in a green armor (mantis? predator? you uploaded those right?), and have since uploaded something to correct the visual discrepancy D: T̴̴͕̲̞̳̖̼̱͒͛̎͒ͫ̃ͧeͩ̈̽̈҉͓̝̰̼̦̫̤̀͠m̫̪̪̯̻͎̫̅̇̓̇͌̚p̸̙̝̓̓͌ͨ͆ͣͥ̂̕o͒̽͐̽͏̞̬̻͕͔͕͚̰͍͠͞ṙ̢̞͚͈̹̰ͨ̓ͭ̈́̌ạ̢̧̪̹̺̺̣̹̲͂͆̏ͪͨ͒ͭř̹͈͜͠y̷͍̻̜̹̼̾̽̈́e̵̹̼̟̦͚͐̈́͌͘d͉̲̣̻͉̱͗̅ḭ̷̻̆͋̆̓̔͝t̨͍̦̫̗͂̅̍̋̆ͩ͝ộ̫̟̬̳̝̲̾ͫ̒̿ͮ̑̚rͯ̎ͨͭ̄̿̽͛҉̠̫̱̠̘̘̲́ͅ7̩̻ͤͩͨ͝͡8̜̣̙͇̻ͨ͛͛̆͒̆̽̒͐͜͡ ͥ̍̉̃̇ͥ̓ͨ͏̕҉̥̹͓̗̤̠̖̤ (talk) 01:19, July 31, 2012 (UTC)

Adding Categories To Images
When you upload images, the area labeled "Comments", you can add the categories for the image there. Granted you have to upload them one by one, but it iwll prevent multiple edits. Just trying to pass on some helpful advice. Lancer1289 (talk) 22:29, August 5, 2012 (UTC)
 * appreciate the advice, i was in quite a hurry when i was uploading the images and didn't have the time to determine which categories would be appropriate to add. rest assured i'll try to minimize the RC clogging in the future now that i've more or less gotten the hang of it.
 * question though before i proceed further with alterations, are we allowed to alter the copyright status of files we didn't add (e.g. those that are screenshots but aren't labeled fair use or not even labeled at all) and are we allowed to categorize them? or should i restrict myself to files i added? i noticed a bunch of mistagged images while i was trawling those sections for unused files yesterday.
