Temporary adminship for Grunny
Just a heads up to let you know that I've temporarily granted admin rights so that he can work on the coding for the infoboxes across the wiki to make them all uniform. This is to avoid the necessity of constantly lowering and raising protection levels on affected articles. Grunny is a trusted member of the Wikia community, and I vouch for his knowledge of technical matters and coding when it comes to Wikis. Although his adminship will be removed once he has completed the work I have asked him to do, I fully intend to nominate him for actual adminship so that we may benefit from his expertise in the future. - Cavalier One ( Wizarding Wireless Network ) 09:09, January 20, 2010 (UTC)

Salazar Slytherin main pic vote
A vote was opened on the Salazar Slytherin talk page over the pic used for the infobox. It was originally set for one week, and it has now been two, but no pic has the +3 clear majority needed for closing as stated in the Voting Policy. What would you recommend? - Nick O'Demus 21:04, January 24, 2010 (UTC)


 * Nevermind. A couple more people just voted and reached a majority. - Nick O'Demus 21:19, January 24, 2010 (UTC)

Infobox policy proposal
Policy discussion in progress here. - Nick O'Demus 11:31, January 26, 2010 (UTC)


 * I've finalized the proposals in the "Alias" policy forum discussion. The vote will officially begin in 24 hours to allow for any final recommendations. - Nick O'Demus 10:11, January 28, 2010 (UTC)

RE: Grunny
Hey Starstuff, thanks for the response to this issue, and your support. I'll be nomming him for adminship shortly. I'm sorry to hear about your personal issues, and hope you manage to work them out to your satisfaction without too much trouble and continue your contributions here :) - Cavalier One ( Wizarding Wireless Network ) 18:38, January 26, 2010 (UTC)

Do I get House Points for making the pages from the last time? It are a lot so I can't edit them here. You can look at my user page, what pages I have made.--Station7 23:29, January 29, 2010 (UTC)

Podcast
Hey Star have not been able to edit in a while long time no see. Anyways, I was wondering if we have a page about different Podcasts such as Pottercast and Mugglecast as well as Hogwarts Radio. I'd be interested in creating the page but I'm not sure if there is any policy regarding not being able too. Thanks --Profiteor 03:12, January 30, 2010 (UTC)

Infobox Alias policy
I thought I'd let you know your version of the proposal won approval, but I'll need an admin's help in implementing some of the changes. First, the "Alias" field in the infobox templates needs to be renamed to either "A.K.A." or "Also Known As", but many of the templates are protected. Second, the Harry Potter Wiki:Character infobox family guidelines policy needs to be moved to Harry Potter Wiki:Character infobox guidelines. I can move the page itself, but some of the shortcut links will need to be renamed as well, such as in the template on the right side of the page and the dropdown list on the left under the site logo. I'll do a writeup a but later of how the policy will be reworded and I'd like to get your opinion on it before actually implementing the changes. - <font face="Monotype Corsiva" size="4" color="FF8000">Nick O'Demus 16:42, February 23, 2010 (UTC)

76.181.206.92
Please block 76.181.206.92 from the wiki. He edits other people's user page. I warned him 3 times --Thorning 16:38, March 22, 2010 (UTC)

Grammar
I noticed that you were moving possessive forms of words ending in 's' (like Dean Thomas' relatives) to remove the 2nd s from s's to it's just s'. But then I noticed User:Seth Cooper changing it back, so I am wondering, are you two engaged in an edit war or sort this out at some point?

I was just going around changing s's to s' wherever I saw them in articles and moving pages but then I noticed the conflict in the history and figure I better stop in case I'm wrong. Is this something I should revert? Ty 09:16, April 7, 2010 (UTC)

New blog policy in effect
As per the vote on the proposed blog policy, I am pleased to say that the new policy is now in effect. Users have one week to retrieve any work they want from the blogs. After that time, feel free to begin deleting blog posts that do not adhere to the new rules. I'll be conducting a massive sweep of the pages soon myself.

Also, welcome back :) - Cavalier One ( Wizarding Wireless Network ) 11:26, June 30, 2010 (UTC)

If you're wondering about the project edits, I'm rewriting Harry Potter Sixth Year to actually make the section chronological.

User:Donmax
Could I ask a favor of you? When this user adds to bulleted list like in the BTS section, he was been taking a few spaces beyond the last bullet and just adding the new information following a dash, with no regards to formatting.

 * How about a little of both? Take it down and put up another FA for now, then bring it up again a month of two before DH: Part 1 comes out, and have a few related FA's around the same time?


 * I was also thinking about doing an "All-Star FA countdown" just before the release of Part 2 next year, something along the lines of:


 * 7 - J. K. Rowling
 * 6 - Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry
 * 5 - Ron Weasley
 * 4 - Albus Dumbledore
 * 3 - Hermione Granger
 * 2 - Lord Voldemort
 * 1 - Harry Potter (DH: Part 2 release date)

Dates
In concordance with the British Policy, I talked to CavOne and decided to move dates to their British way (ie 31 July instead of July 31), I tried moving Jan. 3 and wikia gave me "Action Throtled."

Image policy
I think that should be okay. As long as the images are sourced correctly, and the image in question is in the public domain on a publicly accessible site, I don't think it would be an issue. I'll amend the policy wording slightly to allow it. - Cavalier One ( Wizarding Wireless Network ) 07:07, August 6, 2010 (UTC)
 * I don't think it would be a major issue; the images are publicly available to anyone able to access them. It's not like we're taking images from private Facebook photo galleries, or other site with privacy settings. The images are free to view on the Internet, so I don't think using them is an issue, and the fairuse template should cover their use, yes. - Cavalier One Gryffindorcrest.jpg( Wizarding Wireless Network ) 08:02, August 9, 2010 (UTC)
