Re: "Cosmetic changes"
I very sorry... I made a big mistake, when he is not asked. In pywikipediabot, script cosmetic_changes.py makes little changes in one or several wiki pages that make the source code look cleaner. These changes are not supposed to change the look of the rendered wiki pages. Other language wiki, prefer to "have cleared" the code. — Szynka013   Księga godnych!  12:32, April 13, 2015 (UTC)

Why is there no page for deathbolt???--99.251.174.57 13:36, April 16, 2015 (UTC)

Do you think you could please restore the deleted article of Jake Simmons, now that the episode he has appeared in, had aired, thank you.121.100.143.59 17:34, April 16, 2015 (UTC)

Images
You're one of the meanest admins I've seen on a wiki. But, no, it did't have a watermark on it, and TimeShade said it was ok, see our conversation on this we had yesterday. -- ImperiexSeed, 8:28 AM, April 19th 2015

If something's going on and your mad at me for some reason, please, let's work this out. I would like to have a pleasant user-to-user relationship. How do you tell if a picture has a watermark on it? Now that I've learned how to license pictures, I've been licensing all the ones I upload and even go out of my way to convert them to png if they're not, but the site I was using wouldn't let me size the picture to the standard you guys ask for, so that was the only problem (not knowing it was watermarked), so TimeShade said it would be ok if I uploaded it. I'm willing to follow your policies, but please, help me out if I need it. -- ImperiexSeed, 1:05 PM, April 19th 2015

Ok, man. I understand. Um, so pictures without the CW logo are by definition not watermarked? And, if so, then can I upload that picture if I can find one without the watermark? -- ImperiexSeed, 9:38 PM, April 19th 2015

Get on chat when you can. I have some great news, bro. Neptune -  Everything's impossible until somebody does it.  04:03, April 21, 2015 (UTC)

hey Mr.MakeShift i was wondering on the home screen for this wiikia can we put thea alter ego as we did for all the main cast who became vigilantes. I don't know if its too soon or maybe you can since you run some of the site maybe you can do that because the source is locked meaning we can't do it only you.


 * Thea doesn't have an Alter-Ego, and she isn't in the Main Cast yet I believe. Wraiyf   You never know when life will hit you hard, but then you hit it back.  12:56, May 4, 2015 (UTC)

ET vs HW
Some anon has changed every Harrison Wells mention on Cisco Ramon's page to Eobard Thawne. Since Cisco knows/knew him as Wells, shouldn't that label remain? 18:22, April 25, 2015 (UTC)

Updating certain pages with info from future newspaper
Now that we have seen the future newspaper in full shouldn't we update Barry's Eobard's and Ray Palmer's pages with that info???--Kguziak (talk) 14:01, April 30, 2015 (UTC)

Vandalism
Some anon http://arrow.wikia.com/wiki/User_talk:74.78.78.253 was making stupid edits to the Ra's page which a registered user undid, but I think he still merits at least a warning. 16:00, April 30, 2015 (UTC)

I have noticed that the articles of Barry Allen, Iris West, Caitlin Snow, Cisco Ramon, Eobard Thawne, and Joe West, character information in there Biography sectors only ends in an episode of the first season of The Flash; such as, Going Rogue, The Flash Is Born, The Man in the Yellow Suit, so do you think you can please add more information to these characters Biography sectors of episodes they have appeared in, that have aired after the episodes that the information ends in; Going Rogue, The Flash Is Born, The Man in the Yellow Suit, etc.Cain-2 (talk) 20:31, April 30, 2015 (UTC)

Iterations
As part of the Arrowverse, presumably "Legends of Tomorrow" will get its own tab and be incorporated into this, won't it? 18:47, May 15, 2015 (UTC)

I didn't mean to break the Image policy and those pix were for my account

Hey, I got an image for Legends of Tomorrow
Nevermind, ignore this message. You guys found one already.

Can U Help Me Pls I'm Trying To Upload A Pic But I Don't Know How + I Can't Edit Any Page Evrey Time I Try It Said (Error) :(

Finally decided on a spoiler policy
Hey man, I decided to delete some of the more spoilery pages made on Supergirl Wiki, but I downloaded the xml files, and made sure to import them to my test wiki, so they'll be re-added when the Pilot officially airs, and you'll retain all of your edits to them. The pictures uploaded to the wiki can also stay, because no one will really see them. I decided to keep the the Kryptonite article, just because it isn't really spoilerish. But I got rid of the you know who's sister article, Phantom Zone article, and the Fort Ras one. (The articles I mentioned that were imported to my sandbox wiki, and will be re-imported back to SG Wiki). I also decided to hold off on bios until the Pilot officially airs as well. Didn't know this would all be so irritating to decide! Neptune -  Everything's impossible until somebody does it.  21:37, May 22, 2015 (UTC)

Superman mentioned in Arrow Season 2.5 story "Flames".
Near the end of the book, Oliver uses "Superman" as a metaphor, and when asked by Helena about who that was he tells her that it was an "inside joke".

Does Oliver secretly know about Superman in this universe? It would kind of tie it with the Supergirl tv series a little better.

Hi, I believe you would help to improve (http://grandfathered.wikia.com), would you like to become a contributer and than an admin? :)

Quick question
What was happening in the field when Eobard was getting "beat up?" Because it was a hologram, it couldn't have been beating him up, so what was going on in the field when Eobard was getting thrown around? -- ImperiexSeed, 5:38 AM, June 5th 2015

MIA Notice
Sorry I've been MIA for so long, I haven't been able to access wikia for some time now, my internet (possibly my area) seems to make it that I lose connection to the wikia servers, and therefore I'm unable to edit, at the moment it's stable, however it may in time stop again, so don't worry, I haven't left, I'm just having problems trying to get onto the wikia. I hope to be back in the latest of 3 weeks as that's when NBN is up. Wraiyf  You never know when life will hit you hard, but then you hit it back.  07:33, June 8, 2015 (UTC)

My response
Go look at the Eobard page, someone didn't do a ref properly and it's messing up the page (the appearances section is gone, and a lot of other content as well), so I fixed it last night. -- ImperiexSeed, 10:27 AM, June 14th 2015

Question about speed
Barry said the Reverse Flash could kill everyone in the precinct in seconds, so why did it take the Reverse Flash FOUR seconds to kill the four S.W.A.T. guys??? -- ImperiexSeed, 6:22 PM, June 14th 2015

Help
Hi Makeshift

I was wondering if you would pop over to the DC Cinematic Universe Wikia and help me out with a couple templates that I can't seem to get to work properly how I want them. I know your good with that sort of thing.

RE:Sourcing
Sure thing! How do I source images? -- ImperiexSeed, 2:02 AM, June 20th 2015

Saints and Sinners
Hey, I have a clear shot of the bar where Barry and Snart met for the deal, but I'm not sure if the location itself is significant enough to have an image here? The bar is cool looking and all but as of now I haven't been able to find it as a significant easter egg references... just that there was an arc of DC's Manhunter with the same title, but other than that I'm not exactly getting a more meaning for relation... So I just want to know if it does or doesn't pass the "Notability" policy.-- S a m m m ✦✧ (talk) 22:08, June 20, 2015 (UTC)

Lawton
By now traffic should be gone. Can you unlock Lawton's page? I wanna add some biography stuff.Cloudtheavenger (talk) 06:35, July 7, 2015 (UTC)

Note
Instead of locking pages can't you just add a note format that appears when it's being edited but not in the page itself? You can use it to say stuff like "Sara is currently deceased. Do not update her status as alive until Legends of Tomorrow show her being brought back to life."Cloudtheavenger (talk) 08:38, July 10, 2015 (UTC)

Ban
I found out during my 3 month ban from here that I have combined ADHD. That means I'm both impulsive and not aware of my actions, so idk what I did to get it. If you can list me the things I did wrong I'll try to avoid them in the future. Please and thanks.Cloudtheavenger (talk) 00:20, July 11, 2015 (UTC)

Portable Infoboxes
Hey, MakeShift! We’re reaching out to a few of our top communities like Arrow & The Flash Wiki with the hope of getting you on board with the migration to the new infobox markup. On desktops and laptops, infoboxes often look amazing, but most current infoboxes don't translate well to mobile, which is a problem because most of our users now view Wikia on mobile platforms. We have an easy conversion tool to help you - if you are interested - change your infoboxes into mobile friendly versions!

If you click here, you can see the non-mobile friendly infoboxes. Simply click the “Convert!” button on the right to start the conversion process. (You have to first click convert, then publish, then "approve this draft" to make it go through). I can help you with one or two as an example if you have any questions about the process!

This is our help page for the new markup, and, if you have any questions, comments, or concerns, please let me know! Grace (profile)•(talk) 22:42, August 4, 2015 (UTC)

Sara Lance
The first trivia point violates spoiler policy.Cloudtheavenger (talk) 07:32, August 5, 2015 (UTC)

The second trivia point is not really valid either. She should be among the first chronically speaking.Cloudtheavenger (talk) 21:46, August 5, 2015 (UTC)

Archiving Tool
Is there anyway we can put an archiving tool to make archiving easier? I've seen few wikis use it. It's pretty simple too. Just highlight what you want to archive and the rest is history.Cloudtheavenger (talk) 05:08, August 6, 2015 (UTC)

I'm a visual person. I learn way better by seeing than following verbal instructions. :P But I installed the archive tool and it works just fine.Cloudtheavenger (talk) 06:53, August 6, 2015 (UTC)

Formatting
Hey there, just wondering how you thought about this particular edit done by User:Ppeckc : http://arrow.wikia.com/wiki/Eobard_Thawne?curid=7800&oldid=104839 I don't know if he was actually trying to dramatically reformat the page, but that edit really had a vandal feel to it as 99% of the stuff was removed (now reverted by someone else), so felt like it should probably be reported just in case. Anyways, hope all is well! Am on vaca atm; seems like I might be missing out the possible explosion on IRC bahaha. -- S a m m m ✦✧ (talk) 13:20, August 13, 2015 (UTC)
 * Maybe. That was just one bad edit right? He probably had a malfunction. My laptop mousepad gets all weird and I have to restart my laptop to get it back to normal. It won't move the mouse. It sometimes even click when I didn't even tell it to click. If it's one bad edit, I say he deserves the benefit of the doubt.Cloudtheavenger (talk) 00:07, August 14, 2015 (UTC)
 * Apart from that his other offensive is a minor one, violating the spoiler policy. You should have at least asked him for his story before banning him like one of the admins did with Jiskran a while back.Cloudtheavenger (talk) 00:13, August 14, 2015 (UTC) EDIT: Actually, that was you. ^_^


 * Fair point. I've unblocked him, though if it happens again then there's not exactly a whole lot else I can do. —MakeShift (talk page) 06:23, August 14, 2015 (UTC)
 * Well I'll drop by his talk page and see what I can do for him.Cloudtheavenger (talk) 07:31, August 14, 2015 (UTC) EDIT: I've looked up his wiki records. He seems new. I didn't even know how to revert changes until 4 years after I started editing wikis.

┌──────┘ Hey there! Still about formatting but for a different article! I was unable to send out the stuff on the talk page before you've done your edit! So posting it here just in case you didn't stay around to read it! Talk:S.T.A.R. Labs particle accelerator (also recovered a question removed by the previous anon for unknown reason and added unsigned for both of them). Anyhow... Is there some sort of rule as to when to put image on the left? And is no one seeing what I am seeing? lmao just making sure, cuz if the majority of the people ended up not having the display problem, I won't let it bother me from now, but yeah... the current edit, I'm also seeing the second subsection title "Repurposing the accelerator" being sandwiched between two images (break line is after the "the"), really not a pleasant sight imo. Again, send me a signal and I'll drop the topic (but before I get notified, I'm afraid the typography rules I've learned during my graphic design major days is always gonna kick in, so I apologize for being slightly on the more inquisitive side about this xP )
