== Request ==
Hello.
I come to you because I need your help. I started to update the french part of the wiki, to translate various pages from the english one, to import templates the french wiki didn't use yet etc etc. I noticed you were looking for somebody to manage the french wiki. I do not exactly know what it'd be about, but let's say I'm quite interested in this.
The reason of my message is simple. I updated the Episode List (not the template, only the wikipage) and had to do some modifications, involving accents, missing or useless capital letters, and special letters. I think i'm done, however these modifications broke several links to episode pages.
I know it is possible to hide them on screen, but that would not be quite clean, that's why I tried to rename the pages who needed it... unsuccessfully, since I'm not allowed to do it. Could you please grant me the correct permissions, so that I could rename the pages with a correct typography ? Afterwoods, when there is no more broken links on the "episode list" wiki page, I shall update de "episode list" template page, and the episode infoboxes.
Thank you.

:Ah shit. ok. I'm on the case. :) [[User:Shane|Shane]] ([[User_Talk:Shane|talk]]) 05:01, 19 December 2009 (UTC)


== Colors and First letter of title in uppercase ==
Hello Shane,


Hi Shane.<br/>Just two questions for the moment.
I would like to propose some things concerning the German Mainpage:
* Can you give me all the hexa code for the colors you use for the wiki?
* Because we have lost all german editors, there should be a hint, that they have to subscribe new. Could you integrate that? Proposion for the german text: "Aufgrund von technischen Umstellungen sind die Benutzer Accounts deaktiviert. Bitte registriert Euch unter dem '''alten Namen''' neu." The word "registriert" should be linked to the subsribe process.
* Is it possible to disable or to show me the way to disable the automatic uppercase of the first letter of each word on the article title please?
* The Quote of the day does not work. Allthough I have edited the [http://de.battlestarwiki.org/wiki/Zitat:09_2 Zitat 9.2 page], it does not appear on the mainpage. Could you please check this?
Thank you very much. --[[User:LIMAFOX76|LIMAFOX76]] 16:22, 26 January 2010 (UTC)
* As long, as there are only a few collaborateurs on the german page, the quote of the day, which is at present remarked as a "Quote of the week", should stay present until it is edited new and not disappear every day.
* [http://de.battlestarwiki.org/wiki/Vorlage:Episodenliste This template] could be integrated into the main page for faster finding the episodes.


:Hi, Shane, thanks for [[Battlestar_Wiki:Chiefs'_noticeboard/Archive8#Capitalized_Headlines|fixing this]] for the German version (it works); sorry I didn't notice earlier, since I wasn't active for a while. Perhaps it would be a good idea to drop this transformation alltogether...
General:  
:@LIMAFOX: You can create a personal stylesheet in your profile which applies this change. (for German, it looked ''very'' wrong because this language has quite elaborate rules about uppercase first letters; but I didn't intend to discuss anglo-saxon habits). --[[User:Bruno-the-questionable|Tobias]] 19:32, 26 February 2010 (UTC)
*In Germany Battlestar is published by two TV-broadcasts, one (Premiere) is payed, and one (RTL II) is free. Only a few people are subscribed for the Pay-TV. Thus shouldn't we have two Spoiler-warnings (Premiere, RTLII) for the episodes?
* I have linked our german page in the article "Battlestar Galactica" of german Wikipedia. I hope, we get more contributors now.  Best wishes -- [[User:Tirkon|Tirkon]] 09:45, 2 September 2006 (CDT)
:Read your german talk page where I am responding... --[[User:Shane|Shane]] <sup>([[User_Talk:Shane|T]] - [[Special:Contributions/Shane|C]] - [[Special:Editcount/Shane|E]])</sup> 10:43, 2 September 2006 (CDT)

I finished uploading bigger Season 3 Promo shots to your gallery on the media wiki. --[[User:Talos|Talos]] 10:39, 2 September 2006 (CDT)

== The Matrix Wiki Skin ==
== Matrix Wiki Aid ==


Hi, I've recently joined Wikia and started adding to the [http://matrix.wikia.com Matrix wiki], where I noticed that you'd [http://matrix.wikia.com/wiki/Talk:Main_Page#CSS.2FStyle_Design posted] to the main talk page about a new style design.
Shane, thanks VERY much for the offer to help this wiki. Your answer and suggestions are on my talk page. --[[User:Spencerian|Spencerian]] 08:13, 3 September 2006 (CDT)


The skin at the moment is terrible, but as I've only ever really had experience altering the content of articles in wikis I have no starting point to alter it (the internal help is pretty limited at the moment too). I'm familiar with CSS and web design etc. so if you point me in the right direction I should be able to improve it, but if you're still willing to help with the style that would be more awesome still.
==Chronology==
Hi. I responded to your comment on my talk page, but I don't think you've read it yet. [[User:Noneofyourbusiness|Noneofyourbusiness]] 12:19, 7 September 2006 (CDT)


I'm not thinking anything too fancy, just a plain black background, green text and so on, but with an animated gif of the falling matrix code on either side of the page to really make a good impression.
== Navigational Infobox ==


Please reply either here or on my [http://matrix.wikia.com/wiki/User_talk:Xensyria talk page there] if you've got the time. Cheers --[[user:xensyria|xensyria]] 17:09, 28 January 2011 (UTC)
Hey. The navigational infobox category and some of its content is dreadfully misspelled, but I didn't want to muck about it for fear of breaking something. Could you correct? --[[User:Spencerian|Spencerian]] 13:14, 12 September 2006 (CDT)


== Userpage Design. ==
== Hosting thoughts? ==


I too copied your userpage design. I hope its fine. Just letting you know. [[User:CylonU87|CylonU87]] 11:13, 12 August 2011 (EDT)
I ran across [http://www.siteground.com/hosting_features.htm this]. What do you think? -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] <sup>[[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]]</sup> 13:23, 12 September 2006 (CDT)
