First! lol. Really, I love the new wiki. Easier to use than the old one. --Champthom 07:29, 26 January 2009 (CET)

English usage?

While I think we can agree we won't use Moonspeak here, but what about English usage? Could we use American English because a majority of trolls are American? I don't mean to be an Amerifag but it's annoying as hell to add unnecessary vowels to words when spellcheck says it's wrong. --Champthom 07:25, 27 January 2009 (CET)

if there is an american english setting, i can't find it, the language code is simply "en" for english... i didn't even know mediawiki featured a spellcheck system, i thought that was my browser --cogsdev/vedsgoc 10:53, 27 January 2009 (CET)

    • Err, that's what I mean, with Firefox. I use Firefox and everything comes up misspelled when I see words like "colour" and such. It's not a huge ordeal, and I know Wikipedia uses British English but I think we should stick to American English. --Champthom 10:02, 28 January 2009 (CET)
      • I refuse to use anything less than the TRUE and ORIGINAL English. It's a minor point anyway, but I don't see any real reason to stop spelling things correctly. --ZAPPED 14:59, 2 February 2009 (CET)

I, for one, have no problem seeing either being used interchangingly. Although I write American, I'm cool with whatever version. Da_Nuke 05:20, 25 February 2009 (CET)

Well I'll say since the TRUE and ORIGINAL Sonichu creator, Jimmy Hill is English... I'd say whatever the fuck you want to spell it seems right, bith are acceptable forms of ENGLISH spelling.--UncleBastard 05:35, 25 February 2009 (CET)

since the vast majority of our users are americans, it's best that we use american english in the articles. --cogsdev/vedsgoc 05:30, 17 March 2009 (CET)

  • SO SHALL IT BE WRITTEN, SO SHALL IT BE DONE. --Champthom 16:33, 17 March 2009 (CET)

Possessive of Chris

It's Chris's. From the very first page of Skunk & White's "Elements of Style", third edition: 1. Form the possessive singular of nouns by adding 's.
Follow this rule whatever the final consonant. Thus write
: Charles's friend
Burns's poems
'' the witch's malice
Exceptions are the possessives of ancient proper names in -es and -is, the possessive Jesus' and such form as for conscience' sake, for righteousness' sake. --Champthom 02:09, 7 February 2009 (CET)

Ages?

Has there ever been a page concerning the warped ages of the Sonichu comic. Because they're really fucked up.--gourmetpickle

  • Do it. It could be incorporated into an existing article, most likely Sonichu 8 would be a good spot, but yeah, it'd be a good thing to discuss, both the age change thing and how some Rosechus are older even though the only known ones were made during the rainbow thing. --Champthom 02:55, 9 March 2009 (CET)

If Chris ever found CWCki

Since this was discussed in Mumble - I think Chris's mind would be blown at the size of the Wiki, documenting every single thing about him and everything he cares about, but I think there's a good chance he'd say "IT'S ALL LIES AND SLANDER!" I think there's a 5% chance he'd get an account and try and edit shit, then we'd be like "OH CHRIS, LOL." --Champthom 05:28, 18 March 2009 (CET)

  • i hope he'd add to it and try to portray himself in a more positive way. although we aren't that harsh to chris on here, now that i think about it --cogsdev/vedsgoc 22:23, 24 March 2009 (CET)
  • His input would be valuable going by the precedence he set from the ED article. Mall Conductor Bear 07:46, 1 May 2009 (CEST)

Suggestions for Featured Articles

I've been adding them lately to feature articles that I think are really good, but so far I've run out of ideas what to feature that are interesting in a "Huh, I did not know about that" way and have lots of information. I felt like changing the new one to Rosechu mostly because I ran out of ideas and not to mention I couldn't get Fail or Yawning Squirtle to go with a nice format for the front page.

Anyways, as I'd rather avoid pages I've extensively worked on, leave suggestions for pages you think should be featured here. --Champthom 02:55, 25 March 2009 (CET)

  • Don't worry about wether you've worked on them or not. Worry about wether they are fun to read and if they will make people interested in reading the wiki. :3 (and I'll be thinking about featured articles) RachmaninovDESU 11:39, 29 March 2009 (CEST)

The Scrapbook

PandaHalo has finally delivered and she has delivered us the Scrapbook of Fail, scanned. These are high res scans (well, better than the the images we have now) and I will be uploading all of it here. In the process, I will remove the lower res images since they're shitty images he got from his PSP from images from his computer. --Champthom 03:42, 25 March 2009 (CET)

Something buggy with the site

This diff on this site gets some bug and won't show the diff. --Ritegroic 14:46, 13 April 2009 (CEST)

  • It's not a bug, it's either PHP or MySQL timing out because the page is gigantic. There's not really much that can be done about it as long as the site's hosted on 110mb. --Tumbleweed 22:43, 13 April 2009 (CEST)

Audio Recording Transcriptions

These definitely need to be done for the mumble and psn chats, either that, or brief summaries for each so you know what you're downloading. --Tumbleweed 22:41, 13 April 2009 (CEST)

  • There quite a few summaries of these in the corresponding PVCC threads. That does mean getting it from the old database I believe, because they changed forums or whatever... RachmaninovDESU 22:58, 13 April 2009 (CEST)

If Chris Discovers CWCki - Policy Vote type deal

UPDATE

Not sure how pissed Cogs would be if I told what she had in mind for this, but she came up with a solution that is the best of both worlds, in that we neither have to deal with Chris fucking up CWCki yet would be easy enough for him to use and we don't have to worry about him finding out sensitive stuff. Sorry if you felt like you voted in vain but trust me, this is gonna be awesome.

Details to follow in good time. --Champthom 23:28, 4 May 2009 (CEST)


I have here a sort of message Chris should he ever discover CWCki. Clyde and I believe cogs have stated support for showing Chris our fine wiki and I think this message is a good policy on how to handle Chris should he ever discover CWCki.

Obviously you are free to edit the policy and perhaps we should do a vote of sorts to determine if this should be official policy or not and moved into the CWCki portal.

Voting will end 01 May 2009 (since that's an easy date to remember). --Champthom 19:04, 28 April 2009 (CEST)

  • Okay, I'll extend it until 07 May 2009. --Champthom 21:28, 2 May 2009 (CEST)
Prithee, where do we vote? Fat Nigger 11:54, 3 May 2009 (CEST)
    • Right here, dude. Just say "Aye" or "Nay" or "Yes" or whatever floats your boat. --Champthom 17:05, 3 May 2009 (CEST)
  • I think the message is pretty cool, but I'd say the system you are proposing is too complex for Chris. He's going to shut down or ignore it as soon as he sees it. Shouldn't we just let him edit articles? We always have the original version backed up, so we can then edit his edits again to have them show both our and chris's view. (if we show chris this letter, we are running the risk that he starts sperging because he doesn't understand, and won't really edit anything at all. If we just let him edit freely we're motivating him moar. Remember, it's a tard we're working with. ^^) RachmaninovDESU 16:12, 3 May 2009 (CEST)
  • Aye to what RachmaninovDESU says. Axe 22:15, 3 May 2009 (CEST)
  • By all means, change the page to what you want to reflect it. I see what you're getting at, just you could express what you want than I can. --Champthom 22:20, 3 May 2009 (CEST)
  • Aye to this idea in general. --Mr Mittens 21:31, 3 May 2009 (EST)
  • Aye. Chris is likely to disregard the message, and spout the same old drivel about his words being twisted around. However, the prospects of him dropping new information, insight or drawings is too good to ignore. At worst it'll result in the creation of a 'Christian and CWCki' page. Mall Conductor Bear 06:36, 4 May 2009 (CEST)
  • Aye. --Delabonte 05:15, 5 May 2009 (CEST)

Remove Da update

Suggestion: Redirect this page to 2009 so we don't have to update 3 pages (including the template) every time something happens. Axe 08:36, 4 May 2009 (CEST)

  • Da Update should really be for current events that are too minor to be in the main timeline, or ongoing events, it's not being used properly now. --Robotnik 23:48, 4 May 2009 (CEST)
    • Agreed. We have to keep Da Update. It's a useful short-term timeline based on a classic running joke. --Delabonte 05:15, 5 May 2009 (CEST)
