Cronos Dage says, “Talk!”

Show Preview
Please make use of the Show preview button. It gives you a preview of the edit you make, allowing you to perfect it before you save the page. – Epic Eric (T | C) 17:03, 4 November 2011 (PDT)
- Is this because of my many recent changes? --Cronos Dage 17:04, 4 November 2011 (PDT)
- Yes. I recommend you to use it every time you're doing an edit, or your name will be spammed everywhere in the Recent Changes when you could only have done 1 edit. Anyway, I also ask you to remove the
{{item infobox}}
from your userpage and use{{user infobox}}
instead, as the first one should only be used for actual item pages, and the second is ideal for user pages. Customization options can be seen in the template's page. – Epic Eric (T | C) 04:52, 6 November 2011 (PST)- May you modify that for me? It's in progress and I currently don't have the time. --Cronos Dage 18:20, 7 November 2011 (PST) Edit: Nevermind. Sandboxed that idea for now. Cronos Dage 12:36, 8 November 2011 (PST)

I must insist again that you use the Show preview button. Failure to do so may result in a block from editing. – Epic Eric (T | C) 13:02, 8 November 2011 (PST)
- Some/most/all wikis don't mind. I'll try my best... What I recommend for MediaWiki is that "minor edits" don't show in the Recent changes log, or certain user's Recent changes won't show. That could, however, be havocal though. Oh well. My luck. --Cronos Dage 13:04, 8 November 2011 (PST)
- Wow, over 30 edits on your user page within 1 hour. You really despise the "show preview" button, do you? real_alien (T/C) 13:32, 8 November 2011 (PST)
- I'm used to other wikis(mainly the massive Wikia ones) which have little limit on this, like actually spamming the log rather than making useful changes. If I wanted to, I could make bad edits(because I want to pour everything I know before I forget it) and then have someone correct me. --Cronos Dage 16:36, 8 November 2011 (PST)

GAH!
Your talk page screen is extremely painful to look at! Could you try using a more "mainstream" type of talk page, or alleviate my symptoms of imminent blindness?Fyahweather 17:34, 8 November 2011 (PST)
- Will do. It was an experiment gone wrong in which I decided not to fix because it looked "remotely smexy". --Cronos Dage 18:29, 8 November 2011 (PST)
Team Fortress Wiki:CDCT
I wonder what you're doing there with those pages? – Epic Eric (T | C) 12:34, 8 November 2011 (PST)
- Oh you, editing my talk page while I'm editing it. It's a shortcut. You know, the Shortcut template box which has says "Shortcuts: TF:ABCXYZ". It's a work in progress to help easier personal navigation and editing. --Cronos Dage 12:37, 8 November 2011 (PST)
- Kay, but the "Team Fortress Wiki:", "Template:", "Category:", and "Help:" preffixes are used publically. Please avoid using them for personal purposes. If you need to, just bookmark it or access that site with http://tf2.me/User_talk:Cronos_Dage/Codebox or both. Either way, I'll delete that link. – Epic Eric (T | C) 12:46, 8 November 2011 (PST)
- Right, I had forgotten. I'll make up some shortcut. Also: The bookmark method wouldn't work for me, because it would actually be purely to save time when editing, i.e. [[TF:CDCT|talk]] or the like. Anyway, I'll find a workaround shortly. Thanks for the help and comments. — The preceding unsigned comment was added by Cronos Dage (talk) • (contribs) 20:49, 8 November 2011 (UTC)
- Even editing my comments to add the timestamp, I add more info first, then the timestamp. I am a verified moron. --Cronos Dage 13:04, 8 November 2011 (PST)

Minor edits
Please make use of the Minor edit checkbox when fixing small pieces of text such as typos, punctuation, or minor wording. – Epic Eric (T | C) 13:30, 9 November 2011 (PST)
- That's what I use it for. — Cronos Dage • talk • contribs • my code mods 13:37, 9 November 2011 (PST)
Redirects
Hello. The redirects you are creating are completely unnecessary. You could've just fixed the link instead. I've removed your recent redirects. – Epic Eric (T | C) 14:05, 9 November 2011 (PST)
- Only one redirect was unneccessary, the one you mentioned. --— Cronos Dage • talk • contribs • my code mods 14:07, 9 November 2011 (PST)
- No, all of them were. What would be the point of creating a redirect for every single achievement if you could just locate it along with the rest of that class' achievements? And also, there are conflicting item names/achivement names. And the typos? They are pointless.
- How so are the typos pointless? I have closed the page on many wikis that I was looking for a certain thing because I could not spell something the way a page was spelt. — Cronos Dage • talk • contribs • my code mods 14:16, 9 November 2011 (PST)
- I am also warning you to start using Show Preview and ~~~~ so you don't have to do two edits for something you could do them in just one. – Epic Eric (T | C) 14:13, 9 November 2011 (PST)
- I do, but I forget to. Edit: Grrr, just forgot it there. — Cronos Dage • talk • contribs • my code mods 14:16, 9 November 2011 (PST)

Team Fortress Wiki:Translators' noticeboard/fr
Please tell me why you created that page, using google translate (or it's that you don't have much knowledge of french), because it didn't mean anything in french ? Especially when we already have some kind of a noticeboard. Tturbo ( / ) 10:08, 18 November 2011 (PST)
- I guess I didn't use proper French. — Cronos Dage • talk • contribs • my code mods 13:46, 25 November 2011 (PST)
- Adding this note a bit later, I translate into CANADIAN French. You may modify it into France French or Traditional French if you wish. --— Cronos Dage • talk • contribs • my code mods 16:16, 21 December 2012 (PST)
Image Notice
Hello, Cronos Dage! It seems you have linked to a nonexistent image/number of nonexistent images on User:Cronos Dage/Codebox. If it's not too much to ask, could you please fix the outstanding issues? Thank you! 404: User Not Found (talk) 04:05, 9 December 2011 (PST)
- Done. Sorry for taking so long, I got occupied with other things, but I had read your message earlier. Please tell me if there is anything I forgot to remove. — Cronos Dage • talk • contribs • my code mods 12:42, 5 January 2012 (PST)
Your recent edits + maintence templates
1. I undid both your edits on Smissmas Wreath and Reindoonicorn because you basically ruined the page. What you're doing isn't in any way of help, what you're doing is really vandalizing the pages. 2. We have maintenance templates which are located at the bottom of the main page. I would highly advise you stop with the copy paste of what you just did. Thanks. Ashes 16:10, 21 December 2012 (PST)
- Also, Just watched the logs again, DO NOT edit other userpages. Ashes 16:12, 21 December 2012 (PST)
- Editing userpages seemed fine when I started editing over a year ago. — Cronos Dage • talk • contribs • my code mods 16:15, 21 December 2012 (PST)
- Hmph. They still provide decent info. I have reverted them—only once, not to start an edit war. You can try cleaning them up rather than removing all the useful info the article lacks. Like cleaning up the gallery, for example. Sometimes it is indeed quantity before quality. — Cronos Dage • talk • contribs • my code mods 16:15, 21 December 2012 (PST)
