Hello, tacopill. I am sorry to bother you again, and for the embarrassing question... but I am wondering how to properly reference something from an instruction booklet? I tried on my [http://starfoxwiki.info/User:Wolf_O%27Donnell/Sandbox sandbox] but I can't complete it without inserting a game into the field.

Taco, can you show me all the color backgrounds for templates? I'm having trouble with the fair use template and it's background and border (I want both to be a light blue or red) and I cannot remember what numbers the colors equal. Help?

:That would be awesome. How would you go about it? Are current templates and article structures set up to meet what you are looking to do, or would we need to change current ones and/or create new ones? {{User:Tacopill/sig}} 13:05, 17 January 2013 (UTC)

== Sporteen12 ==
Taco, ah, I'm not sure what to do about the user, ''Sporteen12''. He/she/it recently created an article which was basically one long advertisement. I wanted to block the user, but instead I posted a warning on the talk page. I think the user may be a bot. What would you do? ([[User:Wolf O&#39;Donnell|Wolf O&#39;Donnell]] ([[User talk:Wolf O&#39;Donnell|talk]]) 09:49, 5 February 2013 (UTC))
:if the user only created one page with advertising, talking on their user page is fine. It is if they created multiple pages, or modified multiple pages with spam, very obvious they are a bot, etc. that blocking is warranted. {{User:Tacopill/sig}} 22:03, 5 February 2013 (UTC)
== Blocks ==
Heyo! I went ahead and checked through [[Special:Listusers]] to search for all the recent spam users who weren't blocked yet--and I have blocked them to prevent future spamming by their IPs.
That said, I also disabled them from sending email - do you think that would be an appropriate option when blocking spammers? I know most wikis usually leave the 'email' enabled so users can contact the admins about their blocks--but I figured spammers would just abuse it (i.e. continue their disruptive activity via email).

:Only use it if it is an obvious spammer, not for someone who has had history (even a minor one) with the wiki. Some times, a vandal is a really new person, who may have just triggered the system accidentally. {{User:Tacopill/sig}} 03:09, 21 February 2014 (UTC)

== File upload issues ==
Tacopill, it seems that there are issues with the file upload process. I have tried three times to upload an image; however, I was first informed that I have no right to perform this action—which is false—and during the second and third attempts, I received a 400 ("bad request") error from Cloudflare. I have already deleted the browser cache, cookies, and the like in between these attempts. I am wondering if you would be willing to look at this. Thank you for your time. ([[User:Wolf O&#39;Donnell|Wolf O&#39;Donnell]] ([[User talk:Wolf O&#39;Donnell|talk]]) 17:53, 2 August 2018 (UTC))
:Wolf, I brought it up to the tech support and they think they fixed it. Can you give it a try and tell us if it worked? The 400 error might have to do more with Cloudflare than us.  {{User:Tacopill/sig}} 23:12, 15 August 2018 (UTC)

May I be assigned the ambassador rank like PanchamBro?
