Spotlight Request

Hi. Coasterpedia looks great and I've added it to the spotlight list. -- Wendy (talk) 02:04, August 4, 2010 (UTC)

Thanks!

. Thanks a lot for all your contributions. really appreciate it.

You're welcome! I'm curious though, what brought you here, and why are you thanking me specifically?

Also, since I was curious, I did a web-search and found you just started Runewars Wiki. I'd be glad to send you some templates and things like that if want. Good luck with your wiki!

--MontagnaMagica 00:27, August 28, 2010 (UTC)

Best practices?

Thanks for the "Hey!" on the Killer Bunnies Wiki. And thanks for catching that possessive slip I made. While I didn't start the Killer Bunnies Wiki, I run MagicCarrot.com, which is a fan site devoted to Killer Bunnies and I'm an admin on the MagicCarrot message board on Proboards. So, yes, I'm heavily involved.

What are some best practices for encouraging people to submit quality work (like, say, looking for templates before leaping into article creation?) while not discouraging them from contributing? MagicCarrotAdmin 22:15, August 30, 2010 (UTC)

I'm curious why you renamed Valleyfair to Valleyfair! When one checks the web site, it only put the exclamation mark at the end of sentence in an ordinary way. Neither the logo, nor the use of the name mid-sentence warrants an "!" to its owners. MagicCarrotAdmin 03:31, September 4, 2010 (UTC)

Hey, I need help.

Hi, I'm the one that created the Hollywood Rip Ride Rockit page. However, I am new to the concept of creating pages, so I have some questions. First of all, how do I add a picture to the page. Second, how do I add the info template that's on the side of most pages? Thank you,24.164.138.217 22:32, September 11, 2010 (UTC).


P.S: I might add a page about another Cedar Fair park, Dorney Park.

Thanks for the pov!

I didn't know how to add videos, so thx.24.164.138.217 13:28, September 12, 2010 (UTC)


P.S:I added the Dorney Park page.

Change the title of Seel Force to Steel Force

Coz I dont know how.

Thanks

Read the title.

Me again.

You think I should make a page for The Cyclone? I mean the ORIGINAL Cyclone, at Astroland at Coney Island, by the NY Aquarium. I live about 30 minutes from it.

Liquid Coaster?

Hey, whats up? i was looking at ur user page and i saw the coaster counter. whats a liquid roller coaster? thanks in advance,


24.164.138.217 23:29, October 7, 2010 (UTC)

Hi again! A liquid coaster is another name for water coaster, like Journey to Atlantis. It's basically, a regular steel coaster with splashdown sections on the track. Oh, by the way, were you still planning on creating an article for the original Cyclone? Thanks for asking! MontagnaMagica|Talk 01:34, October 8, 2010 (UTC)

Thanks.

Thanks for telling me. Also, I'm not really considering making the Cyclone page anymore.

Re:Thanks again

Heh, yeah my user page on the CoD wiki makes a lot of people laugh...how did you know I'm from there? Also, I found this wiki quite randomly, actually. I did a comment to a Wikia Staff blog on Community Wikia, and then I randomly started looking at the "Adoption Requests" page. Well, I really like roller coasters, so I decided to check this out :P. When I saw you guys didn't have a Formula Rossa page, I decided to make one and fill in all the info :). Also, thanks for using my poll!

Need some help?

Hello MontagnaMagica, I am new to this wiki, but I can tell that it needs some cleaning up, would you like some help? (I'm a amateur coaster designer and critic anyway so I could be an invaluable asset, not meaning to sound conceited). B.C.E.R.Neil, President of T.F.Erephisia (and a good day to you) 11:36, October 21, 2010 (UTC)

  • Hello! Sorry for the late response. I haven't been checking this site as frequently as usual.

To answer your question... Yes! Please feel free to help by editing or creating pages! I'd really appreciate that! That is, after all, the point of a wiki!

If, by "cleaning up", you mean removing the red links, I'd actually prefer that you not do that. The links might look useless right now, but when a page is eventually made for that link, it should be useful. Make sense? :)

MontagnaMagica|Talk 01:57, October 23, 2010 (UTC)

P.S. Do you design roller coasters for a living, or just for fun? Roller coaster designing sounds like a pretty neat job!

Designing

I currently design coasters as a living, but I hope to do it as a job eventually. I have a large database of info about coasters, manufacturers (my favorite is B&M) and parks, and there will be a virtual barrage of edits over the next few weeks, so keep checking as your articles as they grow substantially in size.


B.C.E.R.Neil, President of T.F.Erephisia (and a good day to you) 13:25, October 23, 2010 (UTC)


P.S. don't worry about the late response, i was busy myself so even if you had answered sooner, i would have probably answered late aswell.

Hey

Hey, it's me, from the Reptile Wiki. I posted a question on your talk page but you didn't answer. I just wanted to let you know that I will, most definitely, be moving. Was wondering where might be a good spot. I might move to Wikkii, although Referata seems to be a good choice. Take a look at your talk page on that wiki...What do you think?


P.S After the move, I might give you admin status :) Thesaurus Rex 09:30, October 27, 2010 (UTC)


Okay, here are the links: www.wikkii.com and www.referata.com. Here are the features for Referata, and here are the ones for Wikkii. Personally, I believe Wikkii to be more feasible than Referata, and it allows 100% unlimited space. So, should we move?

88° Drop on Backlot Stunt Coaster?

I don't think Backlot Stunt Coaster at Kings Dominion has an 88° drop. Are you getting it mixed up with the drop height? Dolphanatic talk contributions 20:14, November 1, 2010 (UTC)

Cool Pictures

Hi again! I was looking around on RCDB and found | this awesome panoramic photo of Dragon Khan. they have a link to the site of the guy who took the photo. A ton of cool pictures here that could be useful for this wiki.--Dolphanatic talk contributions 21:13, November 10, 2010 (UTC)

Primative Template

This template needs to be updated. you will have to do it because it won't let me edit it.Dolphanatic talk contributions 21:58, November 10, 2010 (UTC)

Nevermind! took care of it now that i'm a Co-Admin! Dolphanatic talk contributions 21:00, November 28, 2010 (UTC)

My wiki's staying

Hey MontagnaMagica,

Just wanted to let you know, Reptipedia is staying, and the name is too. Just wanted to let you know, and I was wondering if you were going to move as well. Either way both you and Styracosaurus Rider are becoming admins.

P.S, I think it would be a good idea if on the 'Poll' section of your main page, there was a link to where you could discuss the poll/details on your choice. --Thesaurus Rex 06:26, November 13, 2010 (UTC)

Re: Adminship

Dear MontagnaMagica, I would definitely be interested in that! It would be nice, and especially useful for adding redirects. Dolphanatic talk contributions 18:35, November 15, 2010 (UTC)

A wordmark for your consideration...

See w:c:logocreation:Forum:Coasterpedia/Logo:

--Fandyllic 16:50, November 20, 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for the wordmark! That one is also very good. I think I'll set up a community vote for it somewhere... MontagnaMagica|Talk 18:58, November 22, 2010 (UTC)

I will close the request on Logo Creation wiki now that you know about it. If you want changes, just make a new request or re-open the old request. --Fandyllic 19:14, November 22, 2010 (UTC)

Cool

Wow! an article that I made is now on the main page. Cool! I didn't make the article completely from scratch, though. I got a lot of the information fromthis page at Coasterforce and from this short page on Wikipedia. I did rewrite it and combine the statistics and info, so it's pretty much a separate page, rather than just copying stuff. Dolphanatic talk contributions 20:57, November 28, 2010 (UTC)

"Fasten your seatbelt..."?

Hi again! I was editing and forgot to log in and now it sent this message... or did I make this automated message myself?


"Thank you for your edit to the Tomahawk page.

Please sit down, fasten your seatbelt, and lower the lap bar as far as it will go

If you need help (with the editing), please let the ride operator know, and he will be there shortly to assist you.

Thank you for your cooperation, and enjoy your ride on Coasterpedia!

Corkscrew Image & MonoBook css

Hi, I was wondering where you got the corkscrew image for the site's logo. Because I would like to use a modified version of it for the logo on Monobook. Thanks! (:

BTW, how does the MonoBook css look? I made a modified version of Reptile Wiki's MonoBook css and changed the colors to match this wiki. What do you think? Dolphanatic talk contributions 22:21, January 5, 2011 (UTC)

Spotlight Request #2

Hi. Coasterpedia is still in great shape with lots of fun content. I will add it to the approved spotlight list. There are a small number of uncategorized pages -- could you please categorize them? I'm assuming you just got a bit behind because everything else is so tidy.

In terms of where the spotlight shows, that actually is up to the Content team. They put things where they think they will do well. I'm sorry, but it's not something you can request. -- Wendy (talk)<helper /> 04:08, February 12, 2011 (UTC)

Help with my new Wiki

Hi have you ever been on a Rollar Coaster before? I have it was really scarey. Can you help me with my Wiki site its called http://animalplants.wikia.com/wiki/Category:Animals Animals - Animals and Plants Wiki and can I have some help on Advertise my Wiki. Its about anyone can edit Endangered species around the world. Thanks Quinser's 06:47 28th February 2011

Dear MontagnaMagica,

Thanks for the stuff about statistics I apreaciate it!

Now the if people click the "Create A Page" button, they'll see this template on top, which should encourage people to use our infoboxes if they don't click the "Start your own page!" menu at the top. Tell me what you think!

Please Contact Me (Daniel Westfall from COASTER-net)

Hey,

I've been trying to contact you and havent' been able to get through, so I figured I'd try this. I need you to e-mail me your shipping info for your order.

Also, I need to talk to you and the other Admins of Coasterpedia about a possible partnership I have in mind. What would be the best way to get in contact with you guys?

You can send the answers to my COASTER-net e-mail or PM me on COASTER-net.

Your poaster turned out amazing by the way. Can't wait for you to see it.

--Daniel Westfall

OK, I've just responded to you on Coaster-net. MontagnaMagica|Talk 23:39, April 21, 2011 (UTC)

Spotlight Request #3

Hi. If you look on the request page, you'll see that you already had a second spotlight in February. Generally we ask wikis to wait at least a year before requesting a 3rd spotlights. So maybe ask sometime next fall. -- Wendy (talk)<helper /> 17:49, May 3, 2011 (UTC)

LOL

In Google, search for "recursion". You'll be surprised. Kinda surprised.User_talk:Kernel12 .] 21:56, May 26, 2011 (UTC)

Oh ha ha! I get it. It took me a while to notice the "recursion". :D Nice to see you back here! MontagnaMagica|Talk 01:04, May 27, 2011 (UTC)

Facebook Tournament

Hey MontagnaMagica, Do you think you could use this wiki's Facebook page as a way to vote on that coaster tournament? Let's hope those CP fanboys don't make Magnum and Mean Streak knock out even more classics! =P Thanks in advance!

Just curious...

Did you ever set up a vote for the logo mention at A wordmark for your consideration... above? --User:Fandyllic (talk) 17 Jun 2011 4:15 PM Pacific

Actually, I did. It was in the forums. Here is the link: Forum:Logo/Wordmark. Unfortunately, there isn't really an active community here besides Dolphanatic and myself, so I'm not really getting good feedback on it yet. As you can see, the poll has three votes. The poll never really closed, so you're welcome to vote on it yourself if you'd like.

P.S. Do you think I should ask this on Community Central? MontagnaMagica|Talk 23:27, June 17, 2011 (UTC)

AWB

AWB is a tool that can automatically clean up pages. Do I have your permission to use it? Thanks. .Bryce .TalkBlogContribs. 02:34, June 18, 2011 (UTC)

What is it exactly? How does it clean up pages? MontagnaMagica|Talk 02:35, June 18, 2011 (UTC)

WP:AWB -.Bryce .TalkBlogContribs. 02:38, June 18, 2011 (UTC)

Look OK to use. You have a go! ;) May I ask what you want to change? MontagnaMagica|Talk 02:40, June 18, 2011 (UTC)

Wow, lots of things. Most importantly to bolden the titles of the pages; this is very important in any encyclopedia. I have more things planned, cheers! .Bryce .TalkBlogContribs. 02:44, June 18, 2011 (UTC)

Awesome! Why didn't I hear about this earlier? Like I said, go ahead! MontagnaMagica|Talk 02:46, June 18, 2011 (UTC)

Hiya

Hey! Thanks for the welcome! About the edit; I tried to fix the line that was open and made the layout look slightly off. Somehow, perhaps by my ignorance, the lines went down a bit. The good thing is that it didn't completely destroy the page :P. Sorry if I caused any trouble! --BobNewbie ∞(Talk)∞ 15:33, June 18, 2011 (UTC)

No, actually. I edit in Oasis, which I prefer. Oh, and yes! I love coasters! --BobNewbie ∞(Talk)∞ 15:37, June 18, 2011 (UTC)
Haha, yeah, I know how you feel :P. Here where I live, South Africa...it's pretty coaster deprived at times. --BobNewbie ∞(Talk)∞ 15:52, June 18, 2011 (UTC)
Also true :). --BobNewbie ∞(Talk)∞ 16:22, June 18, 2011 (UTC)

Additional user rights

May I please have additional user rights? You're a bureaucrat, meaning you can give me additional privileges, so can you please do so? No matter what you give me, I will work hard to improve.

And about AWB...I'll start over correctly. It can be rerun.

Favorite manufacturer

What is your favorite roller coaster manufacturer?

BTW, thanks for the rollback privileges!

Am about to renounce my editing time on Wikia

Some volunteer (I won't tell you the name) has blocked me for no reason for three months. Firstly, I was trying to clear up the community's spam, and that volunteer kept telling me "the VSTF have it handled". I didn't do it again, but he has blocked me! I had made constructive edits on that wiki! Can you please contact him, and if he won't tell you, ask the staff? I need to get this fixed!

Spread that over to Annoying Orange Wiki. I am too emotional too even do a thing on Wikia at the moment then to scan through all of the logs at central to see what exactly caused my block.

Also tell them that I share my IP address.

ADDITIONAL: That volunteer warned me only once, whilst others were warned 5-6 times before they were blocked. When Charitwo warned me, he did NOT attempt to educate me about the polices, not did he even provide a link to them. This is getting out of line; I know Wikipedia would do contrary. Look at an example of this user on Wikipedia. The policies to "copyright" were linked to him 2+ times, whilst I got no links.
Not only that, he also blocked X2 for no reason!
Bryce, though I don't want to get involved in this, please remember that nearly no Wiki is like Wikipedia policy-wise. Wikipedia has a massive rule-list and thus they warn contributors more then once. --BobNewbie ∞(Talk)∞ 09:58, June 21, 2011 (UTC)

I am back!

Came back after finding you guys on a search engine. Decided to make some more edits here, thus returning me!

Did you see my articles for Six Flags America and this defunct roller coaster?

From, -Alex- The Powerpuff Girls are awesome. In fact, its my favorite show. 20:17, June 21, 2011 (UTC)

Thanks for being impressed on one of my articles. You should also add more favorite parks infoboxes. I already made one for Six Flags America, it can be seen on my profile.

From, ---Alex- The Powerpuff Girls are awesome. In fact, its my favorite show. 20:28, June 21, 2011 (UTC)

I need both of these done in order for me to come back

About 10+ users have begged me to come back, so I might, but:

Thank you and if you can do these things, I will come back for sure.

Six Flags Great America

Hello i was just wondering why six flags great america does not have a page yet? --Jwied96


Hi there! I guess that's because nobody has thought of adding it yet. You could be the one to start it! Just use this page to help you get started. Have fun! (if you decide to make it) MontagnaMagica|Talk 23:52, June 22, 2011 (UTC)

Check out my YouTube channel!

You can ask me what POVs to upload.


-Alex- The Powerpuff Girls are awesome. In fact, its my favorite show. 00:24, June 27, 2011 (UTC)

Hi Alex! I'd love to see your YouTube channel; but you'll need to give me a link to it first! ;) MontagnaMagica|Talk 14:57, June 27, 2011 (UTC)

Wait, nevermind! I found it on your user page! MontagnaMagica|Talk 14:58, June 27, 2011 (UTC)

Replace a page with this content

Replace w:c:community:User:Bryce53/Userpage with the code shown here. Copy and paste the entire code.

And if you're willing to, I will be very happy if you'd do that whenever I need an update.

Best,

You have to be one of my best friends on Wikia. Also, how do you make your name green in edit histories on this wiki and etc.?
Thank you! To answer your question, I changed some of the wiki's css code. I made administrators green. I think it's helpful because you can see with just a glance if there are any new contributors editing, or if its a regular. I'm thinking about making rollbackers orange, or some other color... What do you think?

P.S. Do you prefer to keep talk page messages on one page (like this), or do you want them to be left on your page? MontagnaMagica|Talk 15:13, June 28, 2011 (UTC)

One page, please. Also did the staff reply to your support request on my block? what did they say? Thanks for the help. You rock!
I've sent you an e-mail. MontagnaMagica|Talk 01:40, June 29, 2011 (UTC)
Hi again. I have updated my User:Bryce53/Userpage again; please copy and paste to the community central. I'm sorry, but being blocked for no reason, and Charitwo ignoring my requests, doesn't help. But if you're really supportive of my frustration, I appreciate it.

Understanding

Jonesof 00:03, June 30, 2011 (UTC) Mr. Montana, I understand why the park was deleted but Pinky has proof that the park exited.

No British Roller Coasters

I had a look around and I haven't seen any British roller coasters like Oblivion and Nemesis (from Alton Towers). Why is that?


http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a351/nanza63/halloween/smiley%20fun%20animation/rollinglaughingsmiley.gif Knife! (Talk)

Hey Knife! Nice to see you here! If you have a look around, you can find a handful of British theme parks.

There are also several other theme parks on this wiki that are in Europe. Just check out this page.

I guess the answer to your question would be that nobody has gotten around to starting those pages.

So, do you live in The United Kingdom? MontagnaMagica|Talk 19:17, June 30, 2011 (UTC)

Ok, yes I live in the UK. Also, why wasn't Alton Towers created when Rita was (I created Alton Towers)

http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a351/nanza63/halloween/smiley%20fun%20animation/rollinglaughingsmiley.gif Knife! (Talk)

Rita's page was created by another user during one of the wiki's spotlights. Thanks for starting the Alton Towers article though! MontagnaMagica|Talk 15:39, July 1, 2011 (UTC)

Ok, thanks for the welcome. I'll be getting to work on starting Alton Towers' rollercoasters

http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a351/nanza63/halloween/smiley%20fun%20animation/rollinglaughingsmiley.gif Knife! (Talk)

Awesome! I'm surprised at the number of roller coaster enthusiasts that are on Annoying Orange Wiki! There's Bryce53, Xtreme2, BobNewbie, and, of course, you! MontagnaMagica|Talk 22:11, July 1, 2011 (UTC)

Just A Rumor

Actully, it wasn't true, But it was rumored by Heather that it could happen when pigs fly.

Hey

Awesome best friend, can you please update my userpage again? Thanks! I'm very happy, because you are willing to do so once I have an update.

Sure, what do you want me to add? Do I copy your usepage from this wiki? MontagnaMagica|Talk 03:44, July 2, 2011 (UTC)

Copy the userpage from this wiki to community. Go to User:Bryce53/Userpage and paste it to User:Bryce53/Userpage on community. Do that whenever I have an update! And if you do, I will say YOU'RE AMONG THE BEST WIKIA USERS I EVER MET IN MY TWO YEARS ON BEING HERE! Also, do you have a Wikipedia account? (And Charitwo is getting even worse. He thinks users who try to get me unblocked will be blocked for harassment.)
Done!

To be honest, I really couldn't care less about what Charitwo is up to. I'm ready to just leave that mess in the past. What about you?

Oh, and yes, I do have a Wikipedia account. I'm under the name "KoopaTroop". I edit semi-frequently, usually when I see a typo. MontagnaMagica|Talk 00:22, July 4, 2011 (UTC)

Bored

Jonesof 14:53, July 2, 2011 (UTC) Hey, I'm bored. You wanna chat? Thanks.

Funeral

Jonesof 16:56, July 2, 2011 (UTC)You're Invited to Alejandro's funeral.

Where: At the Chat Corner.

Why: Because Alejandro risked his life to get out of the trap.

Who will attend: All the survivors.

When: At 4:00 pm.

Adventure

Jonesof 02:27, July 4, 2011 (UTC)Hey Montagna! What a day I had! My Friends went on a adventure and I met Russel and Harriet we went to war and Itsy Bitsy made a new friend (or boyfriend). So I just wanna tell I had a exciting and that's pretty much it except I think Six Flags is really cool. Goodbye!

Hi

Please copy the source of User:Bryce53/Userpage here over to User:Bryce53/Userpage of community central.

OK, I copied it for you! Nice to see you back, Bryce. I thought you weren't able to visit Wikia for at least a month. Did that problem get solved already?
By the way, would you happen to know how I can archive my talk page? I'd like to create an archive for every fifty sections. Thanks in advance! MontagnaMagica|Talk 02:36, July 18, 2011 (UTC)

Replace...

This and this with the code here, and this with '''I am retired. Talk page messages will not receive a response. Please [mailto:[email protected] email me] instead.''' I was banned from Wikia and I needed to request two more things before I leave. It was nice meeting such a nice friend like you. Email me at any time. God bless you. Do it ASAP and courtesy of my retirement.

AWESOME!

Russelrules44 22:13, August 7, 2011 (UTC)YOUR THEME PARK IS AWESOME! Can you make another one like a Six Flags one? And how do you do it?

Hello! I'm assuming you are the same person as Jonesof, am I correct? Anyway, I'm glad you like my theme park! To answer your second question, I just took my time with each roller coaster, and tried to make it as realistic as I possibly could. I spent a considerable amount of time working on the scenery to get it just right. The park took about fifty hours total (not all at once, of course!). I had a lot fun doing it too!
As for a Six Flags park, that might be fun to make! I think I'll work on that if I get some spare time. Thanks for the suggestion!
On another topic, why do you have two accounts? Technically, Wikia only allows one account, and they have actually banned users for what they call "sockpuppeting" (using multiple accounts). I'd suggest you just stick with one account, and use that one only. I really don't want Wikia to ban you! MontagnaMagica|Talk 21:00, August 15, 2011 (UTC)

Don't worry, I'll be careful.

Spotlight Request #4

Hi. Coasterpedia still looks good and I have added it to the approved spotlight list. -- Wendy (talk)<staff /> 02:34, September 2, 2011 (UTC)

Sorry

Sorry about that, I tried to rename it to Coasterpedia. Yeah, so I LOVE roller coasters. Sorry about that, though. Spidey665

No problem! I didn't get a chance to undo your edits yet, I'd appreciate it if you could do that yourself?
What's your favorite roller coaster? Mine is Tatsu! :D MontagnaMagica|Talk 17:54, September 3, 2011 (UTC)

Admin

I need to be an admin for 2 seconds to fix something, then, I'll give up the rights. Spidey665

Mine Too! Spidey665

Awesome! Magic Mountain is the best! It's too bad they are removing Déjà Vu. Anyway, just give me a second, and I'll grant you the temporary rights. MontagnaMagica|Talk 17:58, September 3, 2011 (UTC)

Main Page

  1. Delete "Roller Coaster Wiki" and move all content to "Coastepedia"
  2. Then you will move "Coastepedia" back to "Roller Coaster Wiki"
  3. There you go!

Spidey665, 17:59, September 3, 2011 (UTC)

Thanks!

Thanks, I fixed it all! Spidey665, 18:03, September 3, 2011 (UTC)

Help

I have created a page called List of American Coasters. I only got a small part of it done. But when I 'published it' it did not turn out the way I wanted. And if I did make it the way I want it still wouldn't look all that great. If you could please see the page and re-do what I have or what ever you want that would be awesome! -Shin

Thx

thx for the help with American coasters. In templates or in discriptions of photo's...how do you create Links?!?

-Shinnith 11:34, September 20, 2011 (UTC)Shinnith

Ok, thx

ok, thx! Oh, do we have a page with every coaster on this wikia yet? I want to start adding missing coasters. So It would be handy to just look and see if a coaster is missing. Shinnith 14:50, September 20, 2011 (UTC)Shinnith

Adminship

I know I am new here, but, I am already an Admin at wikia.com www.Nasa wikia.com. So, I wish to have Admin rights. (to replace the other Admin who quit :P) But I am an active member here. Tell me what you think about me being an admin! Shinnith 20:27, September 20, 2011 (UTC)

Re: Active Again

Thanks, I never intended to leave, it was just because I was too busy with those other wikis. (;
Pretty good timing now that this wiki has been spotlighted.

Video's

How do you upload video's? Kata89 14:46, September 21, 2011 (UTC)Kata89

THX, and....

A new wikia is made (its mine) its called RollerCoasterCustom Wiki. It is a very new wikia. I would like it to be the brother of this Wikia! (no doubt I will work on Nasa Wikia, Coasterpedia, and RCCW!) if you would stop bye and help out, I would be more than happy to make you an admin.

Kata89 19:34, September 21, 2011 (UTC)Kata89

Custom wikia

it is about designing your own coasters/theme parks and then showing them. (like, using Roller coaster tycoon 3 and using that coaster as your, well, coaster!) I know it sounds weird, but there are plenty other custom wikia's! And don't worry, I'll work here just as much as I am.

Do you know the day the third spotlight started? I'd like to know so I can add it to the Wiki News page. The same goes for when Kata89 was given rollback rights.
Thanks!

my page!?!

Why is it up for speedy deletion! And how can I get rid of it!

Re:

You're welcome. In general, most of my edits on wikia are from simple edits like these. Also, to answer your question, I am infact a fairly big fan of roller coasters. I also have a slight addiction to the RCT series. NamekianFusion talk contrib 05:19, September 24, 2011 (UTC)

Yeah, it makes sense

Yeah, it makes perfect sense. I mainly get my pics from either their web site or Roller coaster database. Kata89 10:34, October 10, 2011 (UTC)Kata A coaster guy

Reply

Sorry, I skimmed through it because I was in a hurry. But how do I do this? I add photo's using Gallary. And one more question.

How did you create that page that would allow you to make user boxes? I can not figure it out? I wanted to make that for RCCW.

Ruler of the coasters 19:56, October 15, 2011 (UTC)Kata89

Deletion

Hello there. Can I ask that you delete these two articles as soon as possible? Apparently, I guess when Kata and I were trying to make a template, it looks like it became a mainspace page instead. O_o --NamekianFusion talk contrib 02:51, October 16, 2011 (UTC)

Name Response

Well, Since you asked MontagnaMagica, the Big Five in my name refers to the four coasters in the fearsome foursome challenge at Cedar Point (Wicked Twister, Top Thrill Dragster, Millenium Force, and Magnum XL-200). The fifth coaster that is in my name is for the other coasters that are great at the park like Raptor, Mantis, and Maverick.

Duplicate Page

Hello. Apparently, when you created a page for Mine Train, a page named Mine train on the exact same topic already existed. Just thought I would let you know that.--Name (speed | length) 01:54, October 29, 2011 (UTC)

I would not have noticed it as well. But, I remember linking a page to Mine train a couple of days ago.--Name (speed | length) 14:03, October 29, 2011 (UTC)

Hey Montagna, What's up? I'm good thank you, Oh and I just made a new edition of Coaster Wars if you want to read it, But if not then that's ok.

Over and out

Jacob

That last wiki for the theme park wiki project is made!

I have made the final part to the theme park wiki project, Water Ride Wiki! I only have one page done. I made the home page, but it needs some cleaning up. I have some things done. (once you join, I will make you admin. Once the home page and top navigation is good, I'll make you crat'!) Ruler of the coasters 20:33, November 2, 2011 (UTC)Kata89

Template page

Well, I tried to use that, but it just makes it a big drag. I mean, when I put the photo's in the gallery, I have to put in their actual file name. (which is ridiculous). I am fine doing everything in code. But I just can't stand the gallery. Ruler of the coasters 12:53, November 9, 2011 (UTC)Kata89

Inactivity

Sorry for being inactive. I have been really busy getting KTC-The RPG Wiki up and on its feet. Ruler of the coasters 12:55, November 22, 2011 (UTC)Kata89

Question

Hi I'm new here, so sorry if this question sounds stupid but here it goes...So on roller coaster pages, the infobox contains the on-ride video rather than a picture. I just wanted to ask if it would be okay if the video was placed in the article itself and the picture was placed in the infobox. I'm not trying to attack old styles, I jsut think personally that it looks better. Thank you!

Poll

Just letting you know on the poll, you spelled acceptable wrong.--Name (speed | length) 18:57, November 25, 2011 (UTC)

Catagory Question

I know that you don't like adding the extra catagories to pages (the park, the location, etc.) but would it be okay if we decided to just go with it? I don't really see the harm in having extra catagories as it helps with navigation and the "related pages" that appear at the bottom of the page now become more related to the actual page. I hope this doesn't sound invasive or mean, I was just wondernig why it is so uneeded. Sorry for the trouble.

~~JJ~~ 03:14, November 26, 2011 (UTC)

Question

Would it be necessary to place those templates showing the roller coasters for every park in the page for the park itself?

I was using the 'Creat a userbox' tool, and it didn't create the page as a template page. The page is up for speedy deletion. So, we need that page deleted... Ruler of the coasters 14:02, December 10, 2011 (UTC)Kata89

Magic Kingdom

Hi, sorry about this but I created a page on Disney's Magic Kingdom without realizing that there already is one... (link: http://coasterpedia.net/wiki/Walt_Disney_World_-_Magic_Kingdom). Mine has more information than the other one (no offense to the other article) so you should probably just delete one of them or just merge them or something... Thanks and sorry to be a bother.

Sorry for not getting back to you. Here:

About the chat, I'm missing a plug-in apparently. I can see what other people write, but I can't send anything. Kata89
Maybe you should try another browser. MontagnaMagica|Talk 19:03, December 22, 2011 (UTC)
I'll try my Chrome. Kata89
I tried. I could see your's but I can't see mine. Kata89


Userpage

Sure, I don't mind! And thanks! I thought using tabber code would really improve the page. Also, this year, do we have any goals for the wiki? Like, getting to 1000 pages, getting back on spotlight, etc.? Kata89

Thats what I mean, not this year, next year. I think by the time we get to 900-1000 we should put the wiki back on spotlight. It will get more users! Kata89
Also, where did you get the idea to add blog posts to the home page? Did you get it from Water Ride Wiki?
Thats true. Well, I think its a great idea to use those! Also, you updated it now, but there was a feature paged that was featured for quite some time. How about every month when you update the poll, you update the feature article. Kata89
Okay', well, this week is as good as any to start nominating articles. I'll try to find high-quality articles right now, then we can have a community vote on which one we think should be featured. Kata89

Featured article idea's

Here are some of my idea's.

Intimidator 305

Top Thrill

Tatsu (although, this page needs to be expanded a little more.

Kata89

BTW I have created one of the three new awards, Addicted. Also, you have a page called Wild Mouse. That page is inacurate. Its suppose to list all of the Wild Mouse coasters, but my Wild Mouse Disambiguation is accurate. Your page says there is 18 wild mouse coasters, well, they're is actually 128 coasters. Just saying.

Mistakes

Articles

Thanks. Recently I have been spending all of my time on wikia creating articles, or figuring out how to make quotes/pictures change randomly. Ruler of the Coasters 18:11, January 2, 2012 (UTC)


Homepage

Umm....are you going to update the homepage? Ruler of the Coasters 16:47, January 3, 2012 (UTC)

What about the featured article? Ruler of the Coasters 16:52, January 3, 2012 (UTC)

Featured Article

Can you make one that indicates a past article? Ruler of the Coasters 17:12, January 3, 2012 (UTC)


Well, we didn't feature articles that much before, also, its only twelve articles in a year. Just my opinion. And if we keep growing as fast as we are, it wouldn't be a huge problem. But OK. Ruler of the Coasters 17:22, January 3, 2012 (UTC)


On Zeldapedia, they just have a mask as it. I think we should do the same. Just your avatar or something. Ruler of the Coasters 17:27, January 3, 2012 (UTC)


Yes, that is what I mean. Like I said, your avatar is pretty good. Ruler of the Coasters 17:35, January 3, 2012 (UTC)


Template:Previous Articles

Are you going to make the template, or can I? Ruler of the Coasters 17:47, January 3, 2012 (UTC)

Bottom of the article? Well, okay. So should I use the "Box1" template? Ruler of the Coasters 17:51, January 3, 2012 (UTC)


Yeah, okay. I'll just use your picture as it. Ruler of the Coasters 19:32, January 3, 2012 (UTC)


Hey, I made the template, and I put it on the on the previous featured article. It kinda lays on top of the infobox. I kept editing it (the template) and the page. Nuttin! If you can fix it, or if your fine with it, let me know! Ruler of the Coasters 20:07, January 3, 2012 (UTC)

Citations

Should I possibly go through the major articles in the wiki and add citations that link to RCDB?--NamekianFusion

Okay, I use RCDB as well for general information. I suppose for any other pages I make I can use the Theme Park's website.--NamekianFusion
Also, just to let you know, I have moved the content in the category Article stubs to Article Stubs if that's fine with you.--NamekianFusion

Oh, no I havn't

No I havn't. I've just kinda gotton use to writing:Roller Coaster|roller coaster. But, okay! Ruler of the Coasters 13:30, January 5, 2012 (UTC)

Leaving

Please demote me to a regular user. I am sorry to say that I no longer feel comfotable on this wiki and in addition, I have a lot on my plate at the moment, so I am leaving. This is kind of typical of me, so don't be surprised, I usually do some "wiki island hopping." Anways, thanks and bye.

~~JJ~~ 21:57, January 5, 2012 (UTC)


question

So wait, are you, or are you not male?! And if you are, sorry about that...I just kinda assumed that...yeeaaahhh. I couldn't tell, the only clue you gave was on the homepage when it said: "on his talk page". Sorry if this seems a little invading... But time for the second thing, the talk page voting, reviews, discussion is an amazing idea! And if a coaster name changes, when we change the name of the coaster on the page, we change it on the talk page too! But you are the head admin, so, fine. Ruler of the Coasters 17:47, January 7, 2012 (UTC)

Reply

Okay, thats the reason. Your name seemed a little feminine so I just kinda assumed that... Yes, I disagree still, but I get your point. If we ever get more users (having a larger community) I think we should have those polls. Ruler of the Coasters 18:18, January 8, 2012 (UTC)


Administration rights.....I didn't believe it

I logged on, saw I had messages, saw I was promoted to administrator....I logged off, signed back in. I...I can't thank you enough for this! Okay, enough of that. (lol) Yes, I get it. I am an aministrator on three other wiki's, so I get the tools. Ruler of the Coasters 00:38, January 9, 2012 (UTC)


hey!

Hey, I think you're on now, so go to chat! I can now post! Ruler of the Coasters 19:59, January 10, 2012 (UTC)

Ugg, I don't get my laptop! I tried again later to see if I can post stuff, but it wouldn't work! Only yesterday was the ONLY time I could actually post stuff... Anyway, how come I am "green". I was yellowish orange yesterday? Ruler of the Coasters 12:33, January 11, 2012 (UTC)

Question:How to redirect?

I tried to redirect the "Sit down" page. The only way I know how is too rename the page. Is there any better/more reliable way than to re-name the page? Ruler of the Coasters 17:37, January 12, 2012 (UTC)

Create a new page with the name of the redirect, then put this in the page: #REDIRECT [[Page you want to redirect to]]--NamekianFusion

Home Page

Be prepared to update the homepage. The month is practicly over. So we need to find a new featured article/poll. My idea's for a featured article/poll is here:

Kingda Ka

Millennium Force

X2

My idea's for the feature poll is:

        <poll>
       
        What makes a roller coaster great?
        The drop
        Turns
        Inversions
        Speed
        Other
        </poll>
       
        <poll>
       
        What do you prefer?
        A smooth roller coaster with a low ride time
        A rough roller coaster with a long ride time
        </poll>
        
 Ruler of the Coasters 12:31, January 30, 2012 (UTC)

Thanks, no problem. I was up early, so I thought that would be the best time to update the page. Yeah, recently, I have been busy to, so my time is very slim. But I do like to know, what are the rules for updating the home page? I didn't think you were going to be on today, so I updated it? Have a great day, too! Ruler of the Coasters 18:52, February 1, 2012 (UTC)


Oh, that's a good idea! Even when we have a bigger community. Also, there is on other thing I would like to discuss...

Talk pages. I think the poll, review, then the page talk is a wonderful idea! If you don't want to do it now, we could do when we have a bigger community. Its a fun way for the community to stay attached. Just my opinion, you make the final decision. Ruler of the Coasters 10:17, February 3, 2012 (UTC)

Hey, Mont! Where do we have a community hall? And if we do, I think we should add it too the Navigation bar. Thats where we do our politics (decide on idea's) vote, etc. Ruler of the Coasters 10:33, February 3, 2012 (UTC)

Great userpage Mont!

Wow, BIG improvement. (and I thought you live in California) Maybe I should write about when I began to be intrested in Roller Coasters.... Have a great day! Now down to business... Why is it that I can't (or anyone for that matter) put the category "California" or "Magic Mountain"? Just wondering. Ruler of the Coasters 11:49, February 8, 2012 (UTC)

Makes sense. Ruler of the Coasters 12:26, February 13, 2012 (UTC)

Green Lantern Coaster

On the Warner Bros. Movie World page, the text displays 'Green Lantern.' The real name for that ride is called 'Green Lantern Coaster'. What I had was correct. What you changed it to is wrong. Please change it back to the original ride. I will change the Green Lantern (Warner Bros. Movie World)' page to 'Green Lantern Coaster (Warner Bros. Movie World).'

Brony

Well, it started when I saw that you joined the dark side. So, one saturday morning at 1:00 o clock, I turned on the Military History channel. Nothing good. Then the Military Channel. Nothing. So, because I'm a child at heart and I enjoy kids programming, I went to my kids channels. I saw my little pony was on, so I just started to watch it.

I saw two episodes. One of them, was when a pony was visited by herself in the future, and she never got to hear all the message, and so on. The other one, was with Apple Jack AppleJack and about how she was super tired and she got a reward and so on.... All of this to say, it completely changed my view on my little pony. (Just friendship is Magic. When I was a wee little lad, I saw the old show and it was stupid)

I thought the show was very funny. I really liked it. But, I'm not a brony. But I watch here and there. But, I don't get one thing:

watching it, I see very little men ponies. So I don't get how they are repopulating as much as they are. (unless the men are drunk, then I get it)

Ruler of the Coasters 10:47, March 13, 2012 (UTC)

RCDB

I emailed RCDB about adding the wiki to the list of Roller Coaster fan sites and have got an email back saying we have used half their photos on their site and they have to be taken off now- I don't know if you uploaded any but I feel embarrassed now :( I don't even know which have come from their anyway.

This is the biggest problem that this site has face, yet! Yeah, little embarressing. I know I got some photo's from them. But, its only right. MontagnaMagica will be emailing the other company's, and hopefully, they will accept us having there photo's. <sigh> Ruler of the Coasters 11:31, March 16, 2012 (UTC)

The backround is actually copyrighted. Taken from RCDB. I went to Judge Roy on RCDB to see if any photo's were taken from it, and everyone wasn't BUT the photo used as our backround. Just thought I would bring it up. Ruler of the Coasters 11:29, March 18, 2012 (UTC)

Okay, thats good. Ruler of the Coasters 10:06, March 19, 2012 (UTC)

We don't need RCDB anyway! I am glad I found this site- They have some good photos- We just have to remember to include a link on thier page.

Santorum

Yeah, voting for Gingrich would of been wasting the vote. I stayed up late a few nights ago, to see if Santorum was to win Illinois, but sadly, he didn't. Now, I think the only chances he has to crack this 300 delegate gap is to win California and most of texas, plus many other states! I am hoping and praying that Santorum will win, but, I'm preparing myself, because I know Romney is most likely going to win. Well, nice to know that you like santorum! (wait, I forgot to ask, have you voted yet in Arizona?) Ruler of the Coasters 10:35, March 23, 2012 (UTC)

I know Michigan went. Luckily, if I remember correctly, Romney only received one delegate more than Santorum. Well, if its between Romney and Obama, I'll choose Romney. Ruler of the Coasters 11:59, March 24, 2012 (UTC)

External Source: Wikipedia

You stated in your edit summery that Wikipedia cannot be an external source? Why is that? Its like, the most reliable site on the internet? Ruler of the Coasters 10:47, March 28, 2012 (UTC)

Oh yeah, once you put it like that! I did that for a few coasters. I went to their external sources and took some. Thanks! Ruler of the Coasters 10:42, March 29, 2012 (UTC)

Featured Article

Do you think we should change the featured article now? I have some suggestions of good, complete articles:

There is more, Theese are just the ones tht came to mind... Six Flags Scotland FTW!!!!!-Lachlan5963 15:21, March 29, 2012 (UTC)

Coaster Designer Award

I noticed you deleted the template "AwardCoasterDesigner? You said that once the wiki is caught up, this reward will be impossible to get. Well, rewards are meant to be used as a motivational tool. And speaking of which there is around 5000 coasters right now, not including parks, elements, designs, etc. We will have no lack of articles to create. Also, the roller coaster industry will constantly be growing. From new roller coaster types, new roller coasters, new parks, new inversions, etc. This reward will want users to create articles. Ruler of the Coasters 11:35, March 30, 2012 (UTC)

Year Categories

I've got yet another question ;) - If a coaster opened in more than 1 park, should I add only the latest year categorie, add all to the same page, or add them to the redirect pages? Six Flags Scotland FTW!!!!!-Lachlan5963 22:29, March 30, 2012 (UTC)


Talk pages

Why are we deleting the talk pages with polls and reviews, again? I think now with more users, we could start doing it again. Adding the polls to the talkpages. Ruler of the Coasters 11:15, April 2, 2012 (UTC)

Info Box

Could you edit the Infobox template to add more rows? I'm fed up of getting the error message that tell you to many rows :L. Also, I think the info box would look better with slightly smaller writing. They tend to take up the whole page and can be annoying. I don't know how to do either of these things though. Thanks! Six Flags Scotland FTW!!!!!-Lachlan5963 16:07, April 3, 2012 (UTC)

PS:I think the Article Creation pages should have the "Roller Coaster:" prefix so they are not counted in the page count. I didn't want to change them before asking an admin though!

Sister Sites

Mont, we have water ride wiki, and flat ride wiki. We are all inactive on those wiki's. I think we should assign 2 people beau and admin rights. They will be a lot like you, really. Three admins will be running three wiki's, but all the wiki's are of the same series. For example, if we got some one who does not like coasters, but they like Flat Rides, we could put them in charge of Flat ride wiki. We would do the same for Water ride. Then, the other wiki's would grow! I personally think we should get people from Community Central who have experience. And of course, the other wiki's would have the same format as Roller Coaster Wiki, and they would have the same rules. Please tell me what you think. Ruler of the Coasters 10:59, April 24, 2012 (UTC)

Yeah, I figured that. If we set up a blog, and "interview" people for the job, we might be able to do this. I know there are people who are willing. Ruler of the Coasters 11:11, April 25, 2012 (UTC)

Problem

I have a problem with Template:Sucsession, I used it on Corkscrew (Silverwood) and realised that I can't use "|" to hide the park names on the pages in the template because it mucks it up. I know your good at wiki-ing so could you hekp me? Thanks :)Lachlan5963 20:28, April 27, 2012 (UTC)

Also, I was wondering, why on RCT Wiki do the category pages have the 8 most popular pages as pictures, and on Coasterpedia, it doesnt't and I can't change it even though I have admin rights over there! Also on category pages in MonoBook, in Coasterpedia, you can click the "+" beside a category to expand it, and on RCT WIki, you can't! Canyon explain this?

Water ride wiki

I know this would just be another wiki wich (like the water ride wiki) we would forgot about within a week, but I think sometime in the future, we should make a wiki for water parks and their slides, and have the current one for water rides such as river rapids, log flumes etc. Agree?Lachlan5963 (Talk)21:30,27/8/2012

I know it is right now, but I thought maybe we should have two, as the slides are quite different to the in-park rides, and manufacturers, categories, park pages would be easier. Anyways, it probably wouldn't work with the community we have at the moment.Lachlan5963 (Talk)21:41,27/8/2012

Categories, background and admin

Hi again, I'm glad you like background :D

With the roller coaster categories, don't you think it would make more sense if we added all the steel roller coasters to the category for them, then we added all wooden roller coasters to the sit-down category. This would mean that Sit-Down actually includes all the roller coasters where one sits down (excluding TOGO pipelines) to ride them. This is how RCDB and Wikipedia does it, and I think it makes alot more sense, as all rides would be in either Steel or Wood, and all rides would also be in at least one of these (Floorless, Inverted, Sit-Down, Pipeline, Bobsled, ETC ETC), and any extra categories that would apply (Floorless, Kiddie, Enclosed etc). With this system, we can make better infoboxes that auto-categorize pages also, meaning less of us having to add categories to pages.

I know that was a very long message, but that's my idea.

Also, can you grant me admin on the Tilt-a-Wiki? It would help me with stuff like deleting pages and such. Thanks! Lachlan5963 (Talk)16:24,5/10/2012

Ride ratings idea

Hi Mont, I had an idea about the Ride Ratings thing. We've tried it, then it failed. Then we relaunched it, and (IMHO) it has failed again. I have an idea that should make it work, without codes or polls on talk pages. If you look at this page, there is a little block at the bottom called "Rate this page". If we used JavaScript, we could add something similar, however we would have the 10 ratings system we have now. We could have it appear on ever page within the category Roller Coasters without adding anything to the page through edit mode. It would (hopefully) get much more votes, as it is on the article itself. We could use behind-the-scenes numbers/code to make each one independent to each other. I think it would work :)

Of course, we would need lots of help from Wikia Community Central, but it would mean we might finally be able to get ride-ratings off the ground. Tell me your thoughts Lachlan5963 (Talk)20:28,31/10/2012

Do you want me to post a request in community central, or do you want to do it? I know no JavaScript myself.Lachlan5963 (Talk)15:47,1/11/2012

Zamperla Volare

Did you ride the Flying Coaster at Elitch Gardens? Flamingo Land is rumoured to be adding one in the old space of the Corkscrew. I looked at it on Google Maps and it seems to be a perfect fit for Corkscrew's spot. I just want to know if you think these rides are decent, or crap (like most people seem to). Although it's not the wooden roller coaster I was hoping for, I'm glad to see they are (maybe) installing something new! :D Lachlan5963 (Talk) 17:34, December 5, 2012 (UTC)

Photo Galleries

Do we need a photo gallery, even for only one photo? I try to avoid photo galleries, as they look awful in monobook (I really want to keep supporting the old skin, as it is much nicer than the new one). Also, (to me atleast), they look somewhat sloppy when they have less than three or four photos in them. What do you think? Lachlan5963 (Talk) 18:28, December 10, 2012 (UTC)

Location categories

Oh OK - I think we should set a number, for example 10, parks in one country (that we have pages for), should mean we start dividing it up further - If we decide on a number, we could add it to the manual of style? Lachlan5963 (Talk) 16:05, December 11, 2012 (UTC)

How about this. I will give you the name. The wiki is called movie tv and video game wiki. The wiki is about every movie video game and tv show ever released. You can also create pages for the actors and characters that appear in the movies. So just type the name in in the start a wiki page and you will find it.

User pages and welcome bot

Obviously my move to delete uncustomised and certain staff user pages has completely backfired. I just wanted to ask if you want me to delete the rest of the un-edited user pages? Also, I thought I'd let you know that I changed this page so that welcome bot only welcomes registered users (anons don't get notifications anyway) and also it doesn't create default user pages anymore. This is just so that we don't end up with lots of user pages for people with one or two edits, like we have now. People can still create their user pages by clicking on the red link at their profile. Do you like this idea? Lachlan5963 (Talk) 21:08, January 20, 2013 (UTC)

I'm fine with the change to the welcome message. Will we still get automatic user pages for registered users? I still think that's a nice feature (if it's tweaked). MontagnaMagica|Talk 22:18, January 20, 2013 (UTC)
Yeah - I'll make it do that. I think we should start deleting user pages that were left unchanged if the user has not edited the wiki for a time period, say ten days? Do you agree? Lachlan5963 (Talk) 22:25, January 20, 2013 (UTC)
No. We shouldn't delete their pages. It makes their links red, and it might discourage future edits. After all, only an admin can restore a deleted page, remember? MontagnaMagica|Talk 22:28, January 20, 2013 (UTC)
Anyone can create a previously deleted page, unless we protect it from being created. Also, you seem to be mixed up as to what enclosed and indoor means.Lachlan5963 (Talk) 22:34, January 20, 2013 (UTC)
Log out, then recreate Test. I hope I've not made a mistake here. :PLachlan5963 (Talk) 22:35, January 20, 2013 (UTC)
You're right. My apologies for mixing things up! As for enclosed vs. indoor, that's simply a terminology dispute. We could go by what RCDB says if you wish, but I don't see why the pages can't just be the same (with a redirect, of course). MontagnaMagica|Talk 22:46, January 20, 2013 (UTC)
It all depends on wether we want to follow RCDB or stray away from it. If you think it's important enough, we can always set up a community vote. I still think we should categorise them separately, but we could have one page called "Indoor roller coaster" that also explained the enclosed roller coaster.

Thanks - I hope it doesn't get in the way. I plan to contribute sometimes in the future :) !Mmm... (talk) 23:25, March 20, 2013 (UTC)

Full Throttle

I don't know if you've been following the construction, but I thought I should tell you that your new roller coaster is looking amazing! http://themeparkreview.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=1296312#p1296312 I'm quite jealous as we haven't had a looping launched roller coaster since Bullet was sent to Mexico. Despite this, it's still not as good as the Smiler, obviously. Lachlan5963 (Talk) 17:34, April 4, 2013 (UTC)

Spotight Request

Hi. Roller Coaster Wiki looks good and I've added it to the approved spotlight list. Do you want the spotlight to say "Roller Coaster Wiki" or "Coasterpedia"? -- Wendy (talk)<staff /> 02:53, April 10, 2013 (UTC)

Ok. I will see if I can get that to happen; they tend to default to the sitename. -- Wendy (talk)<staff /> 01:47, April 11, 2013 (UTC)

Anons can't receive messages from us

There is not much point in welcoming anon users, because they don't get notifications. Basically, Oasis removes any ability for us to communicate with our anonymous users, such as site-notice and the popupfor Community Corner (is that what it's called?). 08:10, April 20, 2013 (UTC)

Adminship?

How can I become an admin, or a higher up position, because ai plan on seriously contributing to this awesome site!

Re:Personal Welcome

I found this wiki on TPR, if you know what that is. I thought this website is just an awesome idea, and I thought why not contribute with some handy info that I already know! I love coasters and my favorite coaster is El Toro at SFGAdv. SFGAdv is my home park and I work for Flash Pass there! Hope to help out and cant wait for the outcome! Thanks for the welcome.

Uploading Rules

Hey its Biker7766, I was just wondering why I was I guess you could say, yelled at, for posting a picture with a URL in the picture, im new, and I dont know the rules, is it not allowed for us to put other peoples pictures here?

Hi, I'm sorry about your picture. I should really have messaged you here, my bad. Don't worry about it. You aren't in the wrong, it's Wikia. They don't allow us to display upload information where you upload files, so you (and dozens of others) get blamed for mis-uploading files. Nasty stuff. Anyway, thanks for reading! I was seriously thrilled when that link was posted on Theme Park Review (you probably saw my comment below ;)! Regards, Lachlan5963. 95.145.110.98 18:48, May 7, 2013 (UTC)

Picture and Video Sources

Hi, I was wondering is there a list of sites and places we can take pictures and video from? I want to make sure each provider is okay with maybe having us use their photos. Biker7766 (talk) 22:01, May 7, 2013 (UTC)

Checking in

Hi MontagnaMagica,

I just wanted to check in and see how things are going since we last talked. Everything going smoothly? As you know, Lachlan has been banned from Wikia (due to problems on other wikis) - that ban is indefinite now, after the problems continued.

I expect that's going to affect this wiki quite a bit - I'm sorry for that. I know he did a lot here, including a lot of the CSS and JS. I see you do some of that too, but if you need any help with it, please let me know.

And please let me know if there's anything else you need :) -- sannse <staff /> (help forum | blog) 17:38, May 10, 2013 (UTC)

Record holders template

Hello again - Now that there are other people on here except me I really need to get into the habit of writing documentation for things. Anyway, to keep the titles consistent, the record parameter has to be one of the following:

  • fastest
  • fastest-complete-circuit
  • fastest-wood
  • tallest
  • tallest-drop
  • tallest-complete-circuit
  • tallest-wood
  • tallest-wood-drop
  • longest
  • longest-wood
  • steepest
  • steepest-wood
  • inversions
  • inversions-wood

The template will fill it in for you. Also, when appropriate, you can enter none or unknown into the before and after parameters. Lachlan (Talk | contribs) 14:49, 24 May 2014 (UTC)Reply[reply]

While you were away...

I'm not sure if you realized but I decided the following were two different rides:

and not the same ride but renovated. My reasoning was that pretty much all the track and a large amount of supports were replaced in one go. Shortly after, RCDB did the same thing. Lachlan (Talk | contribs) 15:18, 27 May 2014 (UTC)Reply[reply]

I'm away

I'll almost defiantly be without a connection until Friday night so if you can check stuff tomorrow and Friday that would be much appreciated. Thanks! Lachlan (Talk | contribs) 09:49, 28 May 2014 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Desert Storm

Hey! Unless you're able to take a picture of the information about Desert Storm I think you can be trusted as a long standing member of Coasterpedia who obviously does work at Castles and Coasters! Haha :D Lachlan (Talk | contribs) (an admin) 05:20, 15 November 2018 (UTC)Reply[reply]

If you can share it that would be great! I love any old pictures/information. The signature is four tilde symbols... Which I know realise is missing from my computer keyboard so not the best choice! :| Lachlan (Talk | contribs) (an admin) 05:47, 15 November 2018 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Site merging proposal

Dear Mont,

I know you're not so active here any more but I think it's still important I notify you! I am seriously considering merging the Coasterpedia and Tilt-A-Wiki sites. Check out Coasterpedia:Site merger and please leave any thoughts over on that page.

Best wishes! Lachlan (Talk | contribs) (an admin) 13:21, 28 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
