Jared DeWhite

First of all I just want to say thank you for being will to giving me my poll results week after week. Today I need 2 poll results. The first one is Jareds_poll_6 (It should be the Cause and Effect poll). The second one is for someone else, its call something like Cooldude333s_poll_1. Is it possible for you to tell me how many people votes for my polls? Someone from the Odyssey Scoop would like to know how many people voted on Jareds_poll_5 (the KYDS radio poll). So if you can could you start giving me the amounts of votes I get (if you can't that's no problem. Again thank you. Here's the link http://www.aiowiki.com/wiki/Special:PollResults.

While you are at it could you also give me Jareds_poll_7. Thanks Jared DeWhite 23:38, 7 January 2011 (UTC)

Could you also give me Jareds_poll_8. Thanks Jared DeWhite 20:27, 11 January 2011 (UTC)

Hey Reddo, I have a question, I have tried to do a header at my home page. I notice that where it says border_color and background_color that it has 3 different numbers and letters and by changing the letters and numbers it changes the color. Could you tell me how it works?Jared DeWhite 18:15, 4 January 2011 (UTC)

That's just the hexadecimal color. Generally they are 6 characters, but the 3 character one that you are referring to is shorthand hex. You can find a color you like here, copy the hex # and replace the color= on your header. God Bless ~ Nate ~ Talk 04:50, 12 January 2011 (UTC)

Great Thanks, Nate. Jared DeWhite 15:55, 12 January 2011 (UTC)

Special 10 CD Set

Hey Reddo, this is Meyouthemus/Christian A., the blogger who does The Voice of Odyssey. You may remember me from last year when I edited the AIO Wiki calendar page with an abundance of episodes for the schedule that almost turned out to be correct. Anyway, you asked me for a picture of the back of the special collection I have, but, alas, I have discovered that my family's current scanner does not have the software to scan a picture onto the computer. Our old scanner did, and I'm not sure why we switched, but this one does not. The only other way I can think to do it is to take a picture of it with a digital camera, and then download the picture onto the computer that way. But that may take a while if that's what you want me to do.

Also, would you like pictures of the inside parts as well? The package is similar to the first releases of albums 44-46, and has extra art on the inside "flaps", if they can be called that. Thanks for reading my blog! Christian A.

there should be a program on your computer already to deal with scanners as part of the Operating System, but using a camera is fine, thanks for helping us out, and if you don't mind doing the inside flaps too that would be great Reddo 03:34, 16 December 2010 (UTC)

Here are the pictures. [1] I put them on a seperate page on my blog. Hopefully you're able to use them. Christian A.

Thanks for doing that for us, we appreciate it Reddo 07:05, 31 December 2010 (UTC)

Your Discussion Page

Hey, I was just wondering: Is your Discussion page like a 2nd town hall, or can we ask you questions like "What is your favorite album?"?

I know this is kind of Random, but I was just wondering. - Rocketrider231

no this page is just for asking me questions, as for my favorite album it's 25, nothing else is even close to it, second favorite is hard for me to say, 5 14 21 27 are all pretty close for me Reddo 06:56, 31 December 2010 (UTC)

So it is kind of both. While I am on here, what is your favorite episode? - Rocketrider231

I really don't have a favorite episode, there's just too many that i like to decide between one that's high on the list though is poor loser, I love the relationship between Eugene and Bernard so many of the episodes featuring the two of them i like Reddo 04:38, 3 January 2011 (UTC)

Haha, me too. - Rocketrider231

Now that 53 has aired, is that your favorite? Gooey98 ~ (talk) 08:30, 29 May 2011 (PDT)

I think that 53 was better than the novacom saga i still prefer the blackgaard saga, although i did really like 53 Reddo 11:19, 29 May 2011 (PDT)

I would agree that Novacom was very far-fetched and Sci-Fi-ish, while TGRC is very realistic. In other words, 53 could actually happen, and Novacom was more of wishful thinking. Gooey98 ~ (talk) 12:52, 29 May 2011 (PDT)

Your Username

How do you say your username? Please leave the answer on my talk page. WikiFan

What counts as spam?

I was wondering, what counts as spam? If someone posts a joke on a quote like:

Eugene: Let's go! (laughs so hard his head pops off)

If the joke is clean and in good spirits will we still be blocked? I'm thinking we will probably be asked to stop because if it goes on it will be a pain to clean up after the joker. Please answer both questions. - Rocketrider231

If it's from a quote it's fine, spam is usually stuff that either has links to other sites (inappropriate ones, sales ones, random things we've never heard of before ect). Reddo 16:57, 7 January 2011 (UTC)

User page

I think someone has been using there user page, i think it was called "LlamaRachelle‎", to link to suggestive sites, so administrator Nate deleted the page, but I think they recreated their page. just wanted to let you know. AIOgeek-Mark 11:22-God Bless 20:46, 5 January 2011 (UTC)

Yeah i saw that, some one just welcomed them to the wiki, it's okay, but i'll keep an eye on them Reddo 17:01, 7 January 2011 (UTC)

Vandalism

Someone just created a page called "Template talk:Last Chance Detectives‎" with some links to what appeared to be some very bad sites, i blanked the page, but i just wanted to let you know. AIOgeek-Mark 11:22-God Bless 19:30, 7 January 2011 (UTC)

thanks, i took care of it Reddo 19:34, 7 January 2011 (UTC)

Album 53

Album 53 comes out on March 1st just so you know, so you can put it on the main page. - Rocketrider231

Tables

I would like your feedback (and others) on the two different table styles on List of Stores (one is the 1st edit and the other is the current reversion. I personally like the current table because users and viewers can interact with it and list in this case stores by name, episode or type of store. I'm going to make other lists that are requested on "Wanted Pages" like the current version. If it is deiced that the 1st table looks better I will change them. Thanks! Stop Wooton' Around (talk) 01:15, 13 January 2011 (UTC)

Blocking

Hey, you said if we wanted to we could get blocked by an administrator if we wanted to discontinue an account. Can you block me if possible? - Rocketrider231

Done God Bless ~ Nate ~ Talk 21:28, 16 January 2011 (UTC)

AIOkids polls

May you please give me the poll results for AIOkids_poll_1. AIOkid - Mark 11:22-24 23:57, 18 January 2011 (UTC)

Easy Q and A

My thoughts on Easy Q and A is it would stop people from leaving questions on the Q and A that could easily be found. Jared DeWhite (talk) 14:49, 22 January 2011 (UTC)

A lot of times people might not know if it is an easy question or not.--WikiFan (talk) (contributions) 15:51, 22 January 2011 (UTC)

why do we need to stop them from leaving questions there? plus it just makes another place for us to look, it's easiest just to keep it all in one place Reddo 18:20, 22 January 2011 (UTC)

Spam

I would watch Josiol, and Grabirl. I think they are the same person because they were created in minutes of each other and Josiol has just posted a link to a site. Jared DeWhite (talk) 05:16, 25 January 2011 (UTC)

thanks for the heads up, I already perm blocked both of them and deleted the 2 spam pages Reddo 05:18, 25 January 2011 (UTC)

Wow your fast! LOL Jared DeWhite (talk) 05:19, 25 January 2011 (UTC)

it helps that i'm online and trying to avoid my assembly language homework Reddo 05:21, 25 January 2011 (UTC)

Vandalism

There has been a lot of spam today. alot of REALLY bad stuff. it's all still there Just wanted to let you know. AIOgeek- Mark 11:22 -God Bless 02:49, 27 January 2011 (UTC)

I think there are more spam coming, I just blocked a new user with the name Jawbut, and by the way I would love to become an admin and help with the spam. Jared DeWhite (talk) 19:26, 27 January 2011 (UTC)

thanks but that's not blocking people you don't have that right yet, and you should try to trust people and let them do something wrong before attempting to block them Reddo 19:33, 27 January 2011 (UTC)

Sorry, I'll wait until people start doing spam to block them. Jared DeWhite (talk) 19:45, 27 January 2011 (UTC)

i blocked them now, i looked at the database tables and they used the same email address as the spammer did Reddo 21:26, 27 January 2011 (UTC)

Main Page

Thank you for making me an Admin, I won't let you down. Now because I'm an Admin am I allowed to edit the Main Page if there is a new Official podcast or something like that? Jared DeWhite (talk) 20:44, 27 January 2011 (UTC)

you were able to do that before, on the main page you should have a tab at the top that says podcast, click it and fill in the details and then save. right beside that is a news tab for non-podcast news items Reddo 20:45, 27 January 2011 (UTC)

Thanks Jared DeWhite (talk) 20:48, 27 January 2011 (UTC)

rollback

Hey Reddo When I go to Recent changes I see some stuff that says rollback. What does that do? Jared DeWhite (talk) 21:04, 27 January 2011 (UTC)

it undo's all of the most recent edits by a single user with one click, you don't need to click save or anything it's imediate. say on a page one user spammed it 3 times in a row you could click rollback and it would undo all 3 edits and go back to the last version by a different user Reddo 21:08, 27 January 2011 (UTC)

Font Color

I have been wanting to create a signiture for a while. I think I understand how to do it, but there is one problem. The font color. I can't figure out how people can find the font color they want. AIOCREFan 22:06, 27 January 2011 (UTC)

All you have to do is find a color you want here and put it in. Make sure to include the # God Bless ~ Nate ~ Talk 00:11, 28 January 2011 (UTC)

Remove Username

How do you remove a username? Jared DeWhite (talk) 12:29, 28 January 2011 (UTC)

okay i changed a setting you should be able to do that now, on the block page it's one of the check boxes, let me know if you still don't see it, also could you please blank the other/additional reason on deleteing a page? it's not a big deal but it makes recent changes look nicer thanks for all the help this morning Reddo 14:56, 28 January 2011 (UTC)

Great thank you, and yes I would be happy to blank other/additional reason. Jared DeWhite (talk) 15:15, 28 January 2011 (UTC)

Oversights

Wow, thank you for making me Administrators and Oversights. I know with great privilege comes great responsibility, thank you for trusting me. Jared DeWhite (talk) 15:26, 28 January 2011 (UTC)

Re admin

Sure, but I may need some help!Stop Wooton' Around (talk)

What will you need help with? I can make you an admin as soon as you want and I'll help you with whatever as I have time to do so. God Bless ~ Nate ~ Talk 00:49, 29 January 2011 (UTC)

Life Lessons Albums

I've been changing the front album photos of the Life Lesson Albums to .jpg since they are clearer. All we have for the backs are .gif so:

1. Do you know where the front album photos came for and if the backs are available?
2. I did find some photos of the back of the albums but I do not know if they will be clearer. Also it is from Christian Book Store but has the following message:

“

”

Stop Wooton' Around (talk) 21:38, 31 January 2011 (UTC)

i'm guessing the fronts came from tyndale and they don't have the backs on their site :( and don't worry about that message from CB FOTF is the copyright holder and they're more than okay with us using images of their products Reddo 01:23, 1 February 2011 (UTC)

Okay thanks! I've noticed .gif images are not very clear. Stop Wooton' Around (talk) 02:14, 1 February 2011 (UTC)

Question

Hey Reddo I have a question I put it on Stop Wooton Around's talk page [2] Jared DeWhite (talk) 02:32, 1 February 2011 (UTC)

Never mind Stop Wooton Around answered it. Jared DeWhite (talk) 02:32, 1 February 2011 (UTC)

Idea to Combat Spam

I believe that the spammed pages are being created by new users. Is there a way that only autoconfirmed users could be granted the page creation right? Erwin Springer [talk] 02:34, 1 February 2011 (UTC)

they are auto confirmed though, but there's a way to make it so that you have to have X number of edits before you become autoconfirmed, so that's my next plan, i don't really want to do it so I'm holding out for another day or two, but if the spam doesn't let up I'll change it so that you have to have 1 edit before you can create pages Reddo 02:37, 1 February 2011 (UTC)

Admin

May I please be an admin I would like to help delete some of the spam and I can get on sporadically throughout the day Mitchfan~ Acts 16:31~WWJD~ 18:12, 2 February 2011 (UTC)

New Users

Wow, I guess it got bad enough that now you have to request an account. So now how does it all exactly work now? does someone have to request an account and then it goes to your e-mail? Jared DeWhite (talk) 00:07, 3 February 2011 (UTC)

You request an account, and a bureaucrat (either Reddo or I) can confirm them, deny them, put on hold, or mark as spam. Though it will soon be open for all admins to be able to confirm users. God Bless ~ Nate ~ Talk 01:51, 3 February 2011 (UTC)

Admin

May I please be an admin because I have a lot of free time during the day so I can administer during that time Mitchfan~ Acts 16:31~WWJD~ 00:28, 3 February 2011 (UTC)

I made a lot of changes that should stop the spam, if they fail i'll keep you in mind, Thanks for the offer Reddo 16:07, 3 February 2011 (UTC)

Download problems

I am having problems downloading The Green Ring Conspiracy, i keep clicking download but all i get is a notice that says: “There was a problem authenticating one of your files. Try clicking the Retry button to authenticate again.” do you no what the problem is? AIOkid - Mark 11:22-24 03:20, 3 February 2011 (UTC)

i ran into this a while ago, try uninstalling the akamai NetSession Interface and redownload and install it, that fixed it for me Reddo 16:08, 3 February 2011 (UTC)

Spoiler fix

Can you fix the spoiler line for the plot? It makes it go down to the bottom. Thanks! AIOCREFan 16:39, 3 February 2011 (UTC)

it's because you put in width=100% when the infobox is taking up part of the room meaning the plot won't be there anymore, but really we don't need that second spoiler template there Reddo 16:41, 3 February 2011 (UTC)

Well, I am sure there a people who would like to see who is in the episode, but would not like to no what happens in the episode. Same with the quotes. AIOCREFan 19:24, 3 February 2011 (UTC)

Answering Q and A

Sorry I got confused, I was thinking about album 53. Jared DeWhite (talk) 20:23, 3 February 2011 (UTC)

IP talk pages

I notice at the bottom of ip talk pages it says "...please create an account or log in". We need to change it so where it says please request an account or log in. I would do that, but I don't know how to. Jared DeWhite (talk) 18:37, 4 February 2011 (UTC)

thanks, fixed Reddo 18:40, 4 February 2011 (UTC)

Lawrence Hodges

Hey, Reddo, it's Christian A. again. I was using the AIO Wiki as research for some posts on the Barclay family and discovered that you have the wrong picture in the photo box for Lawrence. He is the other boy in the picture on the front of A Time of Discovery. I can tell because he's also in the picture for Flights of Imagination, and the boy on the right looks more similar to the one in that picture. It's nothing big, but I just thought you might want to fix that. I don't have Photoshop on the computer I use for Internet, so I can't cut and paste that picture of Lawrence. Just thought I'd let you know. Thanks! 1 Corinthians 10:13 Christian A.

Faith

I think on our about us page we should say something about our faith. I know not every member here is a believer (shown by the Spam we go a few weeks ago), but if where not here to glorify Christ then why are we here? I like what the Scoop says in there About us page under Our belief, "We also strongly believe (and this is the most important part of everything we do) that Adventures in Odyssey has blessed countless people who do not know Jesus Christ as their personal Savior. It has also been a strong mentor to Christians since its beginnings. Radio drama can be a very good way to shine a light on what Christianity is all about. In fact, so many people have received Christ as Savior because of Adventures in Odyssey. That makes it all worth it! If The Odyssey Scoop can help one person gain interest in the program, and ultimately, a relationship with Jesus Christ, we've done what we set out to accomplish." I don't know what it should exactly say, but I do think it should say something. Jared DeWhite (talk) 16:10, 11 February 2011 (UTC)

i like that idea Reddo 16:24, 11 February 2011 (UTC)

Album 53

Hey, I was just wondering, what did you think of album 53? Should I buy it? (I haven't heard any episodes other then the first part, so if you can, don't give spoilers)

i thought it was really good, it was a little confusing at the start because there were suddenly all these new characters, but overall i really enjoyed it, both the first and the second time that I listened to it, and i'll probably be listening to it again tomorrow Reddo 16:23, 11 February 2011 (UTC)

Is it the best AIO album overall? And while I'm here, if you don't mind me asking, how old are you? (if you don't want to answer this question in anyway, you don't have to)

I wouldn't say it's the best overall, I like 5 and 25 the best overall as personally i enjoy the Blackgaard saga more, but 53 is definitely up there among the top albums, for sure better than any of the other recent albums, and I'm in my early 20's Reddo 16:28, 11 February 2011 (UTC)

Hi, I think your bot put 01101000011001010110110001110000 on the Jelly Telly newsitem. Just letting you know. --WikiFan ~ (talk) ~ (contributions) ~ 18:24, 12 February 2011 (UTC)

February poll

Hey Reddo We need to get a new poll up for February if you tell me what the poll will be I could set it up for you and also I could give the poll results for the last poll. Jared DeWhite (talk) 19:55, 12 February 2011 (UTC)

How are you planning on listening to 53?

• I'm going to listen on the radio when it airs
• I'll buy the cd's when they come out
• I'm going to listen to the downloads

thanks, we can make an announcement about it tomorrow i was going to do it today but i decided to do this contest today instead Reddo 19:59, 12 February 2011 (UTC)

Done, the poll is up and the results for January's poll is up also. Jared DeWhite (talk) 21:13, 12 February 2011 (UTC)

Blipadouzi

I notice on Blipadouzi User page that he said he is an admin, but I looked and I he is not listed as one.

he used to be, but he had things to deal with in real life and asked me to deadmin him, so i did Reddo 20:45, 14 February 2011 (UTC)

Protect

I notice that Album 52 is protested so only logged in users can edit it. Should album 53, and album 54 be protected?

it was only protected due to lots of spam happening on that page, i've unprotected it now Reddo 20:55, 15 February 2011 (UTC)

Mystery code

I think I have figured out the code, and I submitted it here. Is that where I should have sent it in? Because that was for the binary code... --Proverbs 31:30Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting; but a woman who fears the LORD is to be praised. ~ Aria ~ (talk) 18:40, 16 February 2011 (UTC)

User Number

I see that right now we have about 653 user right now. Would it be possible to skip the user number 666 it seems like then someone would then just be stuck with the number. that's just my thought I'm happy to hear other ideas. Jared DeWhite (talk) 19:21, 19 February 2011 (UTC)

not really Reddo 23:14, 19 February 2011 (UTC)

Do you not like my idea? Jared DeWhite (talk) 23:23, 19 February 2011 (UTC)

The number 666 is an integral value. Nothing bad will happen if a user is given this number. - Don't let superstitions overtake you. Erwin Springer [talk] 01:32, 20 February 2011 (UTC)

things like trying to skip a user number have been known to crash wiki's before, i'd rather no try it Reddo 15:43, 20 February 2011 (UTC)

Speaking of 666, did you know that 1+2+3+4+5+6+7...+36 equals 666? And, as you well know, 6x6=36! Just thought it was kind of interesting. Gooey98 ~ (talk) 01:12, 26 April 2011 (UTC)

Good by, and God bless

I will be leaving the AIO wiki, I have had a good time here, but I have to leave. I don't want you to think you offended me or anything, because you didn't I just have lots of things I'm trying to do right now and it is impossible to do everything in the time I have so I'm having to cut somethings this being one of them. What ever you are wanting to do with my account you can do, I think I am leaving for good. You are welcome to deadmin me or delete by account all together. It's been nice being here but like everything there is a time and a place for everything. Good bye. Jared DeWhite (talk) 03:16, 22 February 2011 (UTC)

Just to let you know this is my 2nd account so you can delete this account too if you want. Jay 03:19, 22 February 2011 (UTC)

I'm back, I have decided to come back. Although I did not stay away for very long it kind of made me realized what was important, because although this can be a good thing being here I also think that sometimes we let good things kind of take over the best things and then the good thing becomes a bad thing if it makes sense to you. Although I will be around I will try not to let this take over the best things. Jared DeWhite (talk) 16:57, 23 February 2011 (UTC)

Problem

There seams to be a problem with the server because sometimes this pops up. Hi, we hope you're enjoying AIOwiki Our server is having some major preformance issues and may be slow, you can try to refresh this page or return to the mainpage click here. Jeremiah 29:11-13 Mitchfan GOPACKERS ~ (talk) ~ ~ 22:38, 24 February 2011 (UTC)

I have been getting that message a lot, but I don't think there would be anything Reddo could do about it. Jared DeWhite (talk) 18:20, 24 February 2011 (UTC)

that's because jared edited the episode template multiple times, every times a heavily used template is edited it causes problems for our server and editing it many times at once just makes it worse, that's why we have a testing page and why i make template changes at night when not as many people are on Reddo 19:14, 24 February 2011 (UTC)

Sorry about that. Jared DeWhite (talk) 20:25, 24 February 2011 (UTC)

Glocke's pictures

Are we wanting to keep Glocke's Pictures? It seems like it's a lot to do with not AIO related. Jared DeWhite (talk) 13:51, 25 February 2011 (UTC)

sorry forgot to reply to this, yeah, i think if they're not aio related nuke em (that is to say, get rid of them Reddo 15:38, 26 February 2011 (UTC)

Why did you change the Straussberg family into the Straussberg Family? All the rest has the f lower case. Jared 16:46, 28 February 2011 (UTC)

opps went the wrong way with it, fixed now, thanks Reddo 16:54, 28 February 2011 (UTC)

Bureaucrat

Reddo, Could I please become a Bureaucrat then I could delete more than just one page at a time (I won't be deleting templates). It's okay right now but it just eats up more of my time. I would still be careful about what pages I would delete but I think it would save me a lot of time. I would leave making someone an admin up to you. You don't have to answer right now, but just something to think and pray about. Jared 18:27, 28 February 2011 (UTC)

Duplicated Files

Do we need to keep files like File:363d-old.png. It says it is a duplicated file so I thought we could get rid of them. Jared 21:45, 28 February 2011 (UTC)

yes we do so that when the new cover is released it's easier and quicker to update everything Reddo 21:47, 28 February 2011 (UTC)

Vandalism

We are getting more spam again. If two user accounts are made within a few minutes of each other and one spams us, then should I delete the other user also? Jared DeWhite (talk) 03:43, 3 March 2011 (UTC)

thanks, a few days ago i took off the extenstion where an admin has to verify accounts before they're made in hopes that the vandlism had ceased, it appears not, so i've re-enabled the extension Reddo 04:02, 3 March 2011 (UTC)

Hey Reddo should we keep Aiowikilogo_PeacheyKeen.jpg‎ and Aiowikilogo_PeacheyKeen2.jpg‎. I think it was intended to go into the 08 logo contest but I don't think it ended up in there. here are my reasons for thinking so:

1. If you look at the 08 logo pictures his is not included
2. The last time he edited his was September 10, 08, which the contest had ended September 9

Your Deleting of My Song Page

Why did you delete my song page? Adventures inodysseylego ~ (talk) ~ (Guestbook) 00:11, 11 March 2011 (UTC)

because it was in the wrong spot, you can't make a page for yourself wherever you want, you have to put it in the right location, "your username/page name" just like you did with your sig, and your page still exists, it's just in the right place now Reddo 00:13, 11 March 2011 (UTC)

I thought I had it in the proper spot. Ok. Thanks. Adventures inodysseylego ~ (talk) ~ (Guestbook) 00:43, 11 March 2011 (UTC)

Interview transcripts

When I write the transcript for an interview, should I include everything, or take out things like uh or um? Gooey98 17:32, 19 March 2011 (UTC)

I'd say don't include the uh and um's Reddo 18:52, 19 March 2011 (UTC)

On the Interview:Paul McCusker (March 2011) page, it says "Unfortunately we don't have a transcript of this interview yet, it's on our list of stuff to do but we don't have enough time. You can help us make it". So I made the transcript on the "Make it" link, but I don't know how to make it show up on the Interview page. Gooey98 22:52, 19 March 2011 (UTC)

Never mind about that last paragraph, the real problem is that the no transcript template misredirects. It redirects to the same name of the page, except without the interview part. So if it was supposed to redirect to "Interview:Paul McCusker (March 2011)" it would instead redirect to "Paul McCusker (March 2011)". Gooey98 00:36, 20 March 2011 (UTC)

Wow, thanks for doing that, and thanks for bringing that to my attention, the links should be correct now Reddo 00:39, 20 March 2011 (UTC)

Download links

I noticed your new page User:Reddo/download links and I will be glad to help. However on the first thing to do, How are we going to leave the id's on the episode pages with out a link showing up? Thanks! Stop Wooton' Around (talk) 20:56, 5 April 2011 (UTC)

on the episode page we'll leave the itunes ID in there, however on the template we'll remove all references to it, so the parameter will just be ignored when the html is created for the page. The only reason I think we should keep the id's in there is so that if FOTF ever works out an agreement with them again hopefully all the links should work again just by adding the itunes reference back into the template and it would be one edit to make all the links appear instead of another 700,

and thanks for your willingness to help, I'm probably going to start working on this on next thursday when my finals are done Reddo 23:24, 5 April 2011 (UTC)

Paul McCusker writing his first movie

As you probably already know, Paul McCusker was announced writer for a film called Beyond the Mask. I know it's not directly related to Odyssey, but ... since Paul McCusker is such a vital part of Odyssey, are you open to posting a short news item about this? Nothing long or fancy, just something like what I wrote below.

---News Item--- It was announced recently that in March 2011, Paul McCusker began writing his first screenplay, Beyond the Mask, for film company Burns Family Studios. McCusker's first film is an action/adventure story set in the mid 1770s. For more information, check out the website beyondthemaskmovie.com.

Show Preview

Something happened to the "Show Preview" button...in that it's not there anymore. Neither is the "Cancel" button. A lot of stuff is placed different as well. What happened? Gooey98 ~ (talk) 10:22, 2 August 2011 (PDT)

I upgraded to 1.17, I didn't realise that the preview button was gone, I've reconfigured some things and there's now the preview tab Reddo 20:51, 3 August 2011 (PDT)

I don't know if it's always been this way, or if this is new, but I just noticed that the <nowiki> shortcut appears in both the main edit page and the advanced tab Gooey98 ~ (talk) 15:39, 4 August 2011 (PDT)

I think that there are two <nowiki> shortcuts because Reddo added one after the last update and the recent update probably added one to the advanced tool set. Same with the redirect tool.

One thing that I don't like about the update is the search box. It used to look like the one on Wikipedia, but now it has the two buttons. But I like how it re-sizes itself when you select it.— Eugene [talk] 12:36, 5 August 2011 (PDT)

I was trying to edit the AIO Q&A page, the one where you ask questions. I was trying to make some of the paragraph stand out more, since some users are obviously not reading it. However, when I used the preview tab, it tried to load for 6 seconds and then turned the whole page white. I found that even if I do not make any changes at all, it still does this. I have also tested the tab on episode pages and it works fine. Help? AIOCREfan ~ (talk) 08:37, 18 August 2011 (PDT)

it looks to be due to some of the custom java script that we use on the page, I'll look more into it on the weekend Reddo 05:56, 19 August 2011 (PDT)

Every once in a while when I try to go to an AIOwiki page, I get a message that says:

Internal Server Error

The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.

Please contact the server administrator, webmaster@aiowiki.com and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the error.

More information about this error may be available in the server error log.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

Why is it doing this/can you fix it? Gooey98 ~ (talk) 21:16, 3 September 2011 (PDT)

That happens when the server is under strain and generate the page requested due being to busy doing other things, this happens during peak hours and after someone changes a complex/largely used template. As for what can be done to fix it, we could get a dedicated server but that costs more money, we could rewrite the mediawiki language to be in C but that would take thousands of hours to do, or we could optimize our templates, which i've been slowly working on, but it can only help so much.

Sgt. York

No offence Reddo, but are you sure that Sgt. York a 4 parter, originally a 3 parter than they had just finished doing the voice tracks on when I was at Focus in August this year was originally planned for album 54? I remember them saying that they produced 53 and 54 at the same time, finished all the episodes and then decided to make the Penny ones. And I really don't think it was a 3 part episode, but 3 single episodes that were moved. Can you explain? AIOCREfan ~ (talk) 11:33, 22 September 2011 (PDT)

That's what I thought too, but apparently not I heard it from Evan Reedall, he's the drama coordinator at FOTF so I trust him Reddo 11:48, 22 September 2011 (PDT)

I found those tweets, but it seems to me that he was confused or something. I'm not sure. I want to confirm it with Nathan, cause that conflicts with what he told me before. AIOCREfan ~ (talk) 14:22, 22 September 2011 (PDT)

Administrator

Hi Reddo, will you explain the process of becoming an administrator? Thanks. --AREM Meltsner 14:50, 9 October 2011 (PDT)

You have to be a trusted member of the wiki and you also have to know the proper way to do things (like where to leave a message for a user (their talk page, not their user page)) admins can't really do that much more than regular users though, they can really just block people and delete pages, which is something we haven't really had trouble with lately. Reddo 20:35, 9 October 2011 (PDT)

Wikipedia

I was looking at the recent changes, and I noticed someone copied and pasted information from Wikipedia. Is that something we can do on here? Gooey98 ~ (talk) 11:39, 29 October 2011 (MDT)

Content on Wikipedia is free for anyone to do whatever they want to, so they don't care about it, and if it's adding free accurate info to our pages, I don't see any reason to be against it, so yes it's something we can do Reddo 12:31, 29 October 2011 (MDT)

Okay. Should it be referenced? Meaning, should you say that it was from Wikipedia? Gooey98 ~ (talk) 16:37, 29 October 2011 (MDT)

A reference would not be necessary because, again, it's free for anyone to do whatever they want. Despite the fact that adding information directly pulled from Wikipedia is alright, we would prefer the vast majority of the content added be original. This also applies for episode and album summaries which were originally copied from the Whit's End official website. Original content is (nearly) always better.

Template:Userbox/Listen to Album...

AREM Meltsner created all these user boxes titled "Template:Userbox/Listen to Album 1, Template:Userbox/Listen to Album 2," etc. These user boxes say that the user has listened to Album 1, 2, or whichever one it is. Are these userboxes alright? They seem kind of useless. I mean, we might as well have userboxes like, "This user owns Album 1 [or 2 or 3 or any album]."Gooey98 ~ (talk) 17:23, 1 November 2011 (MDT)

While were on the subject, I asked him a little while back to use preview instead of continuous edits on his user page; however, he did not respond is still filling up the recent changes with multiple edits to his user page. I don't know if to try and reach him again or just let it go or maybe you should contact him?

P.S. I guess I have kinda cluttered up the recent changes recently since I have been clearing out the wanted categories. O well! Stop Wooton' Around (talk) 18:31, 1 November 2011 (MDT)

I noticed that too, I decided not to respond since you already did, but I think we should tell him again if he keeps doing it. Just my opinion. Gooey98 ~ (talk) 16:31, 2 November 2011 (MDT)

The preview page isn't always working right for me. It usually works normal, but sometimes when I hit preview, the whole screen goes blank, and just shows the loading thing in the top left corner (of the web browser, not the page). That could be why he isn't doing it. Gooey98 ~ (talk) 16:39, 2 November 2011 (MDT)

that's your opinion Reddo 12:38, 29 December 2011 (MST)

Yeah, but it's seems a bit unnecessary, especially since there was nothing really wrong with the art. But there must be some reason, so I guess I will have to trust them on it. AIOCREfan ~ (talk) 14:05, 29 December 2011 (MST)

Did you even look at the new cover? the only change on the front is removing the 20th ann. banner Reddo 14:24, 29 December 2011 (MST)

Resources

Since the resource link is broken and it was kind of hidden I kinda stole one of your ideas that I think would work great. On your subpage User:Reddo/test I think those boxes would work great. If you put each heading as say AIO Library, Whit's End, etc. Then have the link available when you click on the box. Two problems however 1st when I tested it on the sandbox all of the boxes where white. Second problem is that the 1st box will always show that link. I don't know much about these kind of things but I think it would be cool to have the boxes with the headings and you could click on them to see the link. What do you think? I realize your busy with the other bugs this is just a thought (a stolen one)! Stop Wooton' Around (talk) 14:39, 2 January 2012 (MST)

yeah the first one would always be visible, and for some reason the template above where you put your test is causing issues, not sure what exactly though. If you take a look at Sandbox Episode you'll see my (almost complete) version of a slightly updated look for the episode page and it includes moving those links into the infobox Reddo 10:55, 3 January 2012 (MST)

New Episode Box

While I was opposed to doing buttons on the episode boxes, I am actually liking the idea now, especially with the new buttons. The old ones that used to be there looked bad, but these fit in with the wiki well. Great Job!

Also, I had an idea. In the character boxes, we could have the picture of the characters (if available) and the characters' actors pics before their names. And they wouldn't have to be large, just big enough that you can tell who it is. And the pics could be generated in their small size automatically by the wiki. Thoughts?

sidebar

There seems to be some problem with the sidebar links on episode pages. The code isn't working, so instead of showing the sidebar, it shows the links at the bottom of the page where the would be written in the edit section.

the comments load for me in firefox, it could be an extension is blocking it or perhaps an old version, try updating. For the sidebar part i know it's broken it's going to be merged into the infobox eventually. Reddo 09:20, 13 February 2012 (MST)

I was wondering what the status of the new infobox. Does it still need work or just the time to think about it and put into use? The links are obviously kind of ugly right now at the bottom of the page. Some of them are now outdated. So do they just need hidden or deleted? Or left alone?

Thanks, we're aware of it and we moved to a new server this morning, pretty much what it boils down to is that theToO.com aiosoda.com and aiowiki.com were running into limits for our MYSQL connection, it should be better now but it still seems a little slow to me. Reddo 15:16, 16 March 2012 (MDT)

Yeah like I said it still has glitches but should it run faster once all the bugs get worked out? Stop Wooton' Around (talk) 15:26, 16 March 2012 (MDT)

Character page

I tried to create a page for Helen Wilson in Mistaken for Good, but something's not working right. Could you fix it (and maybe explain the problem to me)? Gooey98 ~ (talk) 22:11, 7 April 2012 (MDT)

I'm pretty sure it's because the category pages aren't created yet, on Mistaken for Good there's 3 categories involving the actor and character. try creating them and it will most likely fix it, to aid in creating the category pages I made a gadget called Mabel, you can turn it on by going to your preferences, then gadgets, it's called mabel. Reddo 22:25, 7 April 2012 (MDT)

I created the category pages, but the "Cat Rating" thing still doesn't work. Gooey98 ~ (talk) 19:52, 8 April 2012 (MDT)

I fixed it. The problem was that the Cat Rating page hadn't been created. I created it and it works now. --WikiFan ~ (talk) ~ (contributions) ~ 13:52, 9 April 2012 (MDT)

So how do you create a Cat Rating page? What do you put on it? Gooey98 ~ (talk) 17:21, 9 April 2012 (MDT)

Go to the page that needs to be created and just use Mable, she'll fill it in for you Reddo 17:54, 9 April 2012 (MDT)

I couldn't find a Mabel button for that. Gooey98 ~ (talk) 18:17, 11 April 2012 (MDT)

You can also make Cat Rating pages by typing

{{Cat_rating2|{{subst:PAGENAME}}}}

without the <pre> and </pre> things. If it still doesn't work try purging the page. --WikiFan ~ (talk) ~ (contributions) ~ 10:27, 12 April 2012 (MDT)

Gooey98, there's only one button that does everything Reddo 17:00, 20 April 2012 (MDT)

Could you choose my username to Buzz please? Thanks.

No, it's fine. Thanks :) --~Buzz ~ 11:21, 21 April 2012 (MDT)

Web Radio

Why you deleted my page Web Radio?

Because it wasn't formatted properly, you made it as a book page Reddo 09:42, 7 May 2012 (MDT)

Mistake

Sorry, I didn't know that you already uploaded the back cover of album 55. And when I was trying to undo my upload, I accidentally undid your edit! Sorry about that. You can just delete my upload, no use wasting space on the server. AIOCREfan ~ (talk) 20:00, 20 May 2012 (MDT)

it's okay, and deleting it from the wiki doesn't delete it from the server, it just makes it invisible to users but keeps a copy of it around, so there really isn't a point to deleting it Reddo 20:02, 20 May 2012 (MDT)

Deleting

Why do you keep deleting my edits that are correct I edited Angie because she was in Connie's high school but in the amazing loser she is a kid also on Joanne's page it does not say home again PS I listen to Aio everyday Thank you , please answer soon, Skyler from small town saskatchewan

because on Angie's page you were transcluding a page (using {{}} brackets instead of linking (using [[]] brackets) also because that's probably a different Angie and we need to fix that. On Joanne's page it was because all of the episode appearances lists are generated automatically for us using a system that hides future episodes as to prevent spoilers for people who don't want to accidentally see things and spoil the surprise of who's in that episode.

If you have any more questions feel free to ask Reddo 18:08, 21 May 2012 (MDT)

Thank You I understand some more about the wiki

Username/account

The email has not arrived yet! When will it come to my email it is skylerbuck thank you skyler from small town saskatchewan

it should have arrived, I've confirmed the account request though and you should receive an email with your password in it. The email may have gone to your spam folder depending how you have things set up. Let me know it you still have trouble Reddo 17:53, 21 May 2012 (MDT)

Thank you I got the email but I can't find the password can you send an email that only says the password please? Thanks skylerbuck

try going to this link Special:PasswordReset you should be able to reset it from there Reddo 19:15, 21 May 2012 (MDT)

It says it will only let you change it once a day

Polls

Is there a way I could create a poll? Even If I can't can you update the one on the main menu and replace it with a new poll? and show the results of the last one? I have an idea for a new poll on the main page:We find the most favorite episode ever. In round 1 of the poll it could be voting for a set of albums In round 2 pick the top album out of that set In round 3 we pick the top 2 episodes of that album and have a top 2 showdown for round 4. We could do this with the characters as well. Tell me what you think please, thanks again-Skylerbuck PS. and can you tell me how to make make my name have a blue link on it, I forget how to do that.

I'm not a big fan of polls like that, we have the rating bars on episode pages for a reason, I keep forgetting to update it, but I'll try to come up with something. To make your username appear in blue you put ~~~~ you can also click the signature button in the edit tool bar --Reddo 09:18, 10 June 2012 (MDT)

I actually forgot about the rating bar on the episode. And also I can't wait for the next poll. Skylerbuck 19:30, 10 June 2012 (MDT)

Administrator

Hi Reddo I have been editing a lot lately and I have been thinking. I would like to be an administrator. I can edit a lot and I am a really knowledgable fan! You could wait a few months to think about it. It's just I am going to be a computer software/app designer workers. thank you AGAIN--Skylerbuck 17:02, 19 June 2012 (MDT)

Sorry for the long reply life's kept me busy lately. Thanks for your interest in being an admin but if you don't mind I'd like to wait a little longer yet, but I'll definitely keep you in mind for the future Reddo 18:31, 1 July 2012 (MDT)

Actor Histories

I've noticed that people have used word for word actor histories from IMDb, without giving credit to it with any kind of reference or quote. Is that a problem? OdysseyHistoryBuff 19:46, 20 June 2012 (MDT) OdysseyHistoryBuff

No it isn't a problem Reddo 18:32, 1 July 2012 (MDT)

Deleted Stuff

Before i was a user i added a couple of discussion questions to a bite of applesauce and someone deleted them. i looked at your contributions and it said that you were the one who deleted them. i'm not upset or anything i just want to make sure i don't make the same mistake next time. a friend of mine who doesn't have an account said that you deleted something of his too. he posted something on Ralph(dog). can you clear that up for me? Sing4Jesus

I deleted the ralph (dog) page as it was blank, there was nothing on it. I removed the discussion questions as they're not part of the official discussion questions that come with the album, if you want to know anything else let me know. Reddo 06:24, 16 July 2012 (MDT)

ok, thanks for taking the time to explain that to me. i get it now. Sing4Jesus

Link not Working

the link on Answer That! Adventures in Odyssey Edition where it says "To play an online demo of the game, click here" doesn't work. -Sing4Jesus

Oh, wait it's working now. i guess it was my computer. Never mind. -Sing4Jesus

Hey reddo, I copied the cast infobox from here and used the same thing for Jonathan Park wiki, I hope you don't mind. I don't really know anything about code, so I just thought I'd use the one from here. Gooey98 ~ (talk) 20:27, 2 September 2012 (MDT)

Server/Wiki Speed

Hey, Reddo! I don't mean to be a bother, but I have noticed in recent days that loading any page on the wiki takes an incredible amount of time. Especially when loading multiple pages simultaneously. I've also been getting partially loaded pages (just the HTML, no CSS or JS) or the "500 Internal Server Error" message about every 10 page loads. (More often if loading multiple pages in separate tabs.) I know this has been an issue in the past and I don't know if you can do anything to rectify the problem. But if you can do something, I would really appreciate it! :) Thank you so much. — Eugene [talk] 23:36, 10 October 2012 (MDT)

Thanks I've noticed it too, best I can figure is that there's an issues somewhere with the MySQL connection, I've contacted Shadowpaw and asked him to look into it for us hopefully it gets fixed soon. Reddo 23:41, 10 October 2012 (MDT)

Episode template

I know I've brought this up a lot, but can't we update the episode template to match with the sandbox version now? Gooey98 ~ (talk) 17:49, 16 December 2012 (MST)

Not really, it's next on my to do list, first up is updating our audio player apps, then is the new episode template. I'm finally done school (or at least I will be later this week, one last exam to go) then i should have more time. Reddo (talk) 22:49, 16 December 2012 (MST)

Long Time No Write

Well I definitely haven't been on in a long time. We finally got high-speed this last week. That; however, is not the reason I haven't been on much. School has been crazy. I am currently taking an online class and next semester I am taking a class at a local college 1st period. I don't know how much I will do on here, partly because I forget all the projects I was doing. How has the Wiki been holding up? Has there been much traffic? Stop Wooton' Around (talk) 19:36, 16 December 2012 (MST)

Ooo high speed, that must be nice. That's understandable, school takes up a lot of time, I'm finally finishing school later this week. The wiki's been good, lots of traffic, but not a whole lot of editing until the last week or two, still lots to do though, good luck with your school. Reddo (talk) 22:51, 16 December 2012 (MST)

Of course, now that I have done some edits I have a question. Is there any way to make .tiff (snapshot) photos into jpg. I just changed it in my files and it asked me if I wanted to change it to .jpg and I said yes but when I went to upload it, the wiki said it did not recognize file extension .tiff. I think I will just have to work with until I can change it but I was wonder if there was anyway to allow the wiki upload .tiff and what would be the consequences of doing so? Thanks. Stop Wooton' Around (talk) 06:57, 17 December 2012 (MST)

Update. I got the picture converted to .png by pasting it into word then saving it. Stop Wooton' Around (talk) 07:55, 18 December 2012 (MST)

Ahh i see, that seems like a round about way of doing things. I usually use MS paint for simple image format conversions if I want to do more complex stuff I use GIMP it's a free image editing tool similar to photoshop although it takes some time to learn. I can enable tiff uploads if you still need it Reddo (talk) 18:22, 19 December 2012 (MST)

No, I got it figured out now. Thanks anyways. I forgot about GIMP. Stop Wooton' Around (talk) 19:38, 19 December 2012 (MST)

Sorry to bother you again but it seems since I have been working I have a lot of questions. How many of the characters are we going to create for The Bible Network? O and how are we going to spell Sebastien Karazinsky? I created it -ien before I realized it was spelled differently between the two episodes. I personally think Sebastian is the current spelling. Which one do you want to use? Stop Wooton' Around (talk) 23:22, 20 December 2012 (MST)

it's fine, not a bother at all, sorry it took so long to reply, I've been occupied with school. I think we're creating all of the Characters and I'd spell it Sebastian. Reddo (talk) 09:20, 22 December 2012 (MST)

User wants an account

User talk: 68.49.184.219 wants an account but has no email and since you have to have a confirmation via email, he/she can not do so. Do we have an exemption of that or do I just need to offer mine? I realize I would then know his password but I sorta already have the power to lock the account. Also I don't mind using mine. So what do you think? Stop Wooton' Around (talk) 23:30, 19 December 2012 (MST)

Mabel Messing Up (sorta solved)

I have had Mabel mess up a couple of categories. For categories such as Category:Episodes with Mr. Nose voiced by Corey Burton, Mabel has put in {{episode character category}} instead of {{Episode character by actor category}}. I found a similar pattern for any characters who has a period or dash in its name. I believe this is do to the fact that the widget searches for [A-Z] and since it doesn't recognize such characters as dashes or periods, it uses the wrong template. I have like no experience with these and I really couldn't see anything I could do (no surprise there). So are we just going to have to look out for periods, dashes, and the like or is there a solution? I just thought I would let you know.

P.S. It also doesn't recognize (). So for characters such as Deborah (b) it doesn't work. Stop Wooton' Around (talk) 21:14, 21 December 2012 (MST)

Sorry to bother you again but I just noticed that all categories that have Characters voiced by... are empty. Amy reason why and do they need to be deleted (there is a lot) Stop Wooton' Around (talk) 22:26, 21 December 2012 (MST)

Okay thanks for letting me know, I'll see if I can update Mabel to better handle those situations. Reddo (talk) 09:22, 22 December 2012 (MST)

Okay Mabel should work for those pages now. Those categories used to be used for our automated actor/category system but I updated it a while ago, i guess I never cleaned them up, I've taken care of them now. Reddo (talk) 09:46, 22 December 2012 (MST)

Mabel is now messing up on normal Episodes with Sebastian. Instead of putting {{Episode character category}}, mabel is putting {{Episode character by actor category}}.

P.S. It does now recognize (), -, and . but that might be because it puts the episode character by actor category for every category that starts Episodes with. Stop Wooton' Around (talk) 14:34, 22 December 2012 (MST)

okay, I've changed some more things on it, let me know if you see anything wrong with it Reddo (talk) 15:22, 22 December 2012 (MST)
