| Hello! I would like to thank you so much for promoting me to one of the sysops! It was a such a surprise, really! I never ever expected it! I shall be respectful of this title, and dutiful to it as I am aware of what to do since I've been working on wikis for a long time, don't you know? [[User:Hope(N Forever)|Hope(N Forever)]] 14:10, 12 March 2010 (UTC)

| :Mm. I figured. Just be cool with it and whatnot. I'm not going to impose a ton of rules like "YOU MUST ASK ABOUT EDITING THE MEDIAWIKI NAMESPACE" or anything. If you have something you think will help, do it and I'll check it out later :P That's the beauty of wikis. Just don't break nothing XD[[User:Neo|Neo]] 15:06, 12 March 2010 (UTC)

| | |
| == Umm... hi. == | |
| | |
| I'm basically here for assurance. I'm sure you guys will edit here under the same no copy policy you follow at WiKirby, but just to be safe; I advise you not to consider even using the same sources. I've recently detected conflict between Wikia and NIWA editors at other Wikis, and it happened due to a misunderstanding of the Wikia editor's context, in which the NIWA admins did something slanderous to the main page. I need to know, at this moment, whether or not this Wiki was made in spite of the situation, or whatever. That may sound paranoid, but I'm trying to stay on the safe side to avoid intra-wiki conflict. Thank you for your time. [[User:Blue Ninjakoopa|Blue Ninjakoopa]] 22:59, 7 April 2010 (UTC)
| |
| :# Thank you for Joining our Wiki. I hope you will have a good time editing here, and hope the wiki can benefit from your experiences as a Admin, and as A Star Fox Fan.
| |
| :# Thank you for Warning us of...whatever it is. Did this happen to Arwingpedia? i'd like more details on the event, whatever happened, in order to help put stuff in place to help deter it happening here.
| |
| :# This Wiki was launched [http://grifkuba.org/starfox/w/index.php?title=Lylat_Wiki&oldid=1 Feburary], so no it wasn't made in spite of anything. You don't need worry about that.
| |
| :# Do you have any recommendations of what policies, templates, etc., We should put in? I am open to any ideas you have.
| |
| :Thanks Again, {{User:Tacopill/sig}} 00:22, 8 April 2010 (UTC).
| |
| ::Not an admin or anything here, as a candidate wiki for NIWA status this wiki will certainly be held to a high standard in regards to plagiarism and handling such accusations. WiKirby maintains respect for the other wikis bc I want to- and it's important to me personally. Since I was one of the founding members of NIWA; almost anything I was working on would have been held to a stronger consideration than a typical startup. I'm unaware of the main page issue you mentioned. I haven't been online much the past few weeks. But tell me more and I'll look further into it. [[User:Axiomist|Axiomist]] 04:40, 8 April 2010 (UTC)
| |
| :::Seems my buddies here have it right. We started to help the NIWA out, not to spite you guys. And I can personally assure you that I will have a strict policy on it.
| |
| :::As for the main page issues, those were blown out of proportion. What happened was that the administrators of Wikitroid became angry because the main page of Metroid Wiki featured links to pages around the wiki, essentially. This made no sense whatsoever, as Wikitroid has numerous page links on their [http://metroid.wikia.com/wiki/Main_Page main page.] (Compare to [[metroidwiki:Main Page|this]] for reference.) I'm in charge of this wiki along with...well...WikiSysop :P and I fully and openly encourage you to come to me right away with any complaints of plagiarism, and I'll take immediate action. I don't want to be enemies at all like what happened with Metroid Wiki and Wikitroid. That was the result of a lack of communication and several problematic misrepresentations of the goals of Metroid Wiki on the Metroid Database Forums.
| |
| :::In addition, I visited Arwingpedia awhile ago, but I decided against making an announcement of the presence of Lylat Wiki because I didn't want to add more tensions to the mix. So just know that I will be checking our new pages with Arwingpedia for plagiarism, and that I EXPLICITLY forbid it. *points to site notice*

| == Some light reading ==
| |
| | |
| Hello there Neo. I am DarkSamus89, an ex-admin of Arwingpedia. I'm quite sure you've heard of me from Blue Ninjakoopa, and not in a positive way. And he is exactly why I, and some other people are here. We, the people who have now had enough of him, are here to tell you the truth about him, and why he should discontinue as an admin & bureaucrat on this Wiki. I'll explain through these links below.
| |
| | |
| First, here is his basic problem solving method, also known as the all-that-matters-is-my-opinion -method:<br />
| |
| http://starfox.wikia.com/wiki/User_talk:Falcory<br />
| |
| http://starfox.wikia.com/wiki/User_talk:Blue_Ninjakoopa/Archive_2#Paths_of_Fate<br />
| |
| http://starfox.wikia.com/wiki/User_talk:Blue_Ninjakoopa/Archive_2#Paths_of_Fate_aritlce_rights<br />
| |
| | |
| Since he is unable to keep his rage inside, Falcory and those other people complained about him, and he was warned by Wikia staff itself:<br />
| |
| http://starfox.wikia.com/wiki/User_talk:Blue_Ninjakoopa/Archive_2#Warning<br />
| |
| http://starfox.wikia.com/wiki/User_talk:CatherineMunro<br />
| |
| To save you from the trouble of asking if he changed for the better after this, the answer is no.
| |
| | |
| BNK is able to build an argument from almost any subject, no matter how minor it is. Jimbo Jambo was also an admin on Arwingpedia, just like me, and he also left Arwingpedia because of BNK:<br />
| |
| http://starfox.wikia.com/wiki/User_talk:Jimbo_Jambo#lol_you_lied<br />
| |
| And if you check the red link in Jimbo Jambo's last post (and his final contribution before he left) you'll see the lack of control Jimbo Jambo is referring to:<br />
| |
| http://starfox.wikia.com/index.php?title=User_talk:151.199.137.92&action=edit&redlink=1<br />
| |
| And in case you're wondering, BNK deleted the page. But as you can still see, he also has a tendency to use stronger language when he decides discussing with people is no longer an option.
| |
| | |
| Here BNK first shows his attitude when people don't agree with him and then unleashes his fury on another anonymous contributor:<br />
| |
| http://starfox.wikia.com/wiki/User_talk:Blue_Ninjakoopa#Shit<br />
| |
| If two or more people are against him, he blames them for some kind of conspiracy against him. Then when he is told that is not the case, the flamewar starts and/or the banhammer sings.
| |
| | |
| And here's some extra proof that I am not the only Arwingpedia user thinking BNK isn't the right guy for the job of an admin:<br />
| |
| http://starfox.wikia.com/wiki/User_talk:Wolf_O%27Donnell/Archive_4#Concerns_about_Blue_Ninjakoopa<br />
| |
| Unfortunately, Canis Shepalute and Jimbo Jambo may not be active enough for me to get them tell their versions of the stories.
| |
| | |
| And a small extra. How he resorts to lies when he just doesn't care anymore:<br />
| |
| http://starfox.wikia.com/wiki/File_talk:Star_Fox_Adventures_Warp_Stone.jpg
| |
| | |
| And these two are why I left:<br />
| |
| http://starfox.wikia.com/wiki/Talk:Falco_Lombardi#VOTE<br />
| |
| Hindsight notes: What the heck did he get angry for there? I think because there was a possibility that things wouldn't have gone the way BNK would've preferred. He is actually the very first and so far only person I've ever fought with on the Internet. When he argues with you, he just skips all your valid arguments and concentrates on flaming you. If you don't agree with him, you're automatically wrong. He can't stand being disadvantaged. He also blocked a guy without any warning, which is actually against Wikia rules. He didn't make any kind of attempt to solve the problem between us, but escalated it instead. He is absolutely unable to take constructive criticism, and he replies with nothing more than flaming and conspiracy theories. He comes up with false accusations, and lies. Not even having the second most edits on the Wiki at the time saved me, which makes me ask, as it is one of admins' job to make decisions for the best of the Wiki, is banishing one of the Wiki's top contributors just that?<br />
| |
| http://starfox.wikia.com/wiki/User_talk:Blue_Ninjakoopa#Hold_up<br />
| |
| Yes, I admit what I said there in the second last paragraph was wrong, but I was enraged. Enraged by his self-righteousness and his ego, which he seems to think the whole galaxy orbits. He didn't give a single thought to make decisions which would benefit the Wiki, he just wanted to get rid of the competition. Nobody on Arwingpedia dares to rival BNK, because this is what is what happens. That's what comes from soloing as an admin for too long. There should never be only one admin. You just have too much power and before you know it, it's in your head.
| |
| | |
| And no, Arwingpedia is far from the only Wiki he's done these kinds of things on. Here is the first example:<br />
| |
| http://pikmin.wikia.com/wiki/User_talk:Jimbo_Jambo#For_future_reference..<br />
| |
| And if I haven't convinced you yet, here's another one:<br />
| |
| http://super-smash-bros.wikia.com/wiki/User_talk:Blue_Ninjakoopa/Archive_13#<br />
| |
| Or actually, ALL those 13 archived pages. There's a lot going on there. Well okay you can skip pages 2, 8, 9 and 10. As you see, he's been banned on several occasions.
| |
| | |
| I hope you'll have the time to read all that and see what I mean. I'd like to help you out with the Wiki, but as long as BNK is around flaming, trolling and what have you, I just can't.
| |
| | |
| And BNK, if you for some reason are reading this, don't try to approach me, I don't want to bother answering your flame posts. This isn't only for calling me Polish and for the $60 I used to buy the Star Fox guides, but also for ruining a perfectly good Wiki!
