Hi
Hi, Nathan! Firstly, sorry that I never got in touch with anyone from the Polish DXWiki. I don't speak a word of Polish and couldn't navigate the site at all, but that's no excuse for not trying harder. I also apologise for taking your logo without permission, I found it there but assumed it was a pre-existing logo (it's great, by the way). As the English wiki is relatively new and so far hasn't had many contributors, it is certainly behind the Polish version, hopefully the more content we add the more people will come and add their own. I advertised it on several forums, too. Thanks for your contributions! Richard Jackson 22:53, 31 August 2008 (UTC)

Wiki Adoption
Hello, out of courtesy I am letting the recent contributors to this wiki know that I have been allowed to adopt this wiki. I intend to be more active than the previous administrator and would like to extend an invitation of discussion about the way forward as this wiki has been "stale" for some time.

If you wish to take part in said discussion then please head over to the Community portal discussion page.

I look forward to working with you. Cameron Brewis 17:03, 17 March 2009 (UTC)

Logo
Hi Nathan, I know the previous admin used the logo from your site. Are you happy that we keep using it? Cameron Brewis 17:28, 17 March 2009 (UTC)
 * I don't have trouble with it at all. That's what I made this logo for.--Nathan2000 18:18, 19 March 2009 (UTC)

Admin
Hi Nathan, as you have been with this wiki for a long time, made quite a few edits and seem the friendly sort I have made you an admin/sysop.
 * Thanks. I regretted, that I'm not an admin when that article about nanotechnology was created. I'll do what I can to keep high quality of articles. Congratulations on your adoption, by the way.--Nathan2000 18:18, 19 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Thanks, I requested adoption with an eye to giving you sysop powers anyway, I stated in my adoption request that if I hadn't done enough they should give it to you as I was planning on assigning you sysop rights. With two admins I figure that even if one of us should disappear there is still someone here to run things.--Cameron Brewis 18:41, 19 March 2009 (UTC)

Thank you Nathan2000
I am still getting used to using this information utility. I intend on assisting in collecting accurate data concerning the Deus Ex universe and submitting the information here where it is required. I am glad to be of assistance.

Hi
Hi every one! I think it is time to update wiki's skin and template don't you think? but I do not know how, I think it is a task that an administrator should do. Deus Ex Wikia has great potential if well maintained.P.S. sorry for my very italian-english...^_^

I will Nathan, thanks.

Admin
Hello my friend ;)

Are you an admin? Given my current work and contributions on the total revision of the Wiki to become a great wiki like Dragon Age or Mass Effect wiki, I will wish to become admin for delete some unnecessary images, edit the main page, and maybe put some news of Deus Ex :).

Some renovation or new page, and new template for example:


 * Pistol
 * Pistol (DX)
 * Pistol (DX2)
 * Assault rifle
 * Ammunition
 * Datacube
 * Red Arrow
 * Klara Sparks
 * Universal ammo


 * Template:DX2 weapons ‎
 * Template:DX3 weapons ‎
 * http://deusex.wikia.com/wiki/Template:Deus_Ex_image
 * http://deusex.wikia.com/wiki/Template:Deus_Ex:_Invisible_War_image
 * http://deusex.wikia.com/wiki/Template:Deus_Ex:_Human_Revolution_image

I'm aleady an admin of the wiki " The Vault " on Fallout so I know well the the function and the wiki syntax. Thank you in advance for your reply and good evening, count on me to make the Wiki Deus Ex a great wiki! Itachou [~talk~] 15:49, January 8, 2011 (UTC)

Deus Ex Bible and admin
Hi Nathan2000 ;)

I had seen and read at that time there was a second part, but time has passed, and now I don't know if the neoseeker post combining the two parts or is just the 1st part. The only evidence I have that there is a second part is this news of shacknews, leading to a gamespy down link =(.

http://www.shacknews.com/onearticle.x/19932

Otherwise yes, we can largely reintroduce the contents of the Deus Ex Bible on the Wiki, that's what made The Vault and is just fine.

BTW, what do you think of my admission as admin? I've give details of why in the previous message (" Admin ").

Like I say, I'm ready to reorganize the wiki so that it sounds like professional and like great Wiki. I have in mind to change the " Augmentation " pages by putting a page by games and nano-mod and meca-mod page gathering information from the Deus Ex universe, such as nano-mod that the player can not obtain. All the major wiki make this, it's the best way to differentiate " Game " and " Universe " (and corrected mistake, like the Dragon's Tooth Sword - NEB are not the same weapon in Deus Ex and Deus Ex: Invisible War due to technical limitations of games) and for augmentations of specific game, it allow cast a fast look at what we really seek.

I'm willing to invest myself more, I already made 312 edits in 6 days. Before I start seriously, I will like that my work is recognized and have the functions I need to upgrade and clean dramatically the Wiki.

You can trust me, I just want to make the Deus Ex Wiki so great that the series is, it makes me sad to see that the Wiki is not as great as some other series (like Mass Effect) that are recent and have yet become important in some time, while the Deus Ex series is one of the best series ever created and is older.

I wish you a good evening my friend, we are between fan of Deus Ex, count on me once the paperwork completed! Itachou [~talk~] 16:45, January 10, 2011 (UTC)
 * Actually, there were three parts of the Bible, all of which can be found on the forum we've both found. Is it me, or our discussion's increasingly... scattered?
 * Concerning the granting of the admin/sysop status... Unfortunately, I don't have the power to do that - you'd need to contact a bureaucrat, like Elpeppo87... what you did. Okay, you're ahead of me. I think he's active, all we can do is wait for an answer. If he wants to consult the others before doing anything, I'm okay with you being an admin.--Nathan2000 19:29, January 10, 2011 (UTC)

Sorry for the dispersion ;), and thanks you for your favorable opinion. Well, as you said there's nothing to do, just wait an answer =).

It's unfortunate that the Wiki is so little active, I think things will change once the new Deus Ex released. I will try to improve the Wiki as best I can to for provide a consistent basis with newcomers. To have a maximum degree of relevant information to add, I'm me try to finish again the two Deus Ex, I refinished the first and I'm back from Cairo in the second. Once I play again Deus Ex: Invisible War after 8 years, I note that this is finally a good game, just the gameplay is a little watered down but that's all.

Good evening to you my friend and see you soon! Itachou [~talk~] 20:22, January 10, 2011 (UTC)

Redesigning the front page.
Hi, I am the one who has introduced image links in the "Contents" section of the Deus Ex Wiki front page. I am an admin in Dragon Age Wiki and I wish to improve your front page using "Portal Templates" that were designed by Tierrie in Dragon Age Wiki. Apart from Dragon Age, several other gaming Wikis are currently using thes templates. As a Deus Ex fan, I thought I should make there improvements to this Wiki. I wish to hear from you regarding this. Thanks. -- Snfonseka 03:52, January 15, 2011 (UTC)


 * Hello. Sorry for answering here, but, like above, I prefer to keep the conversation in one place. Your contribution to the main page was superb - it looks much better now. I've looked through those templates on DA Wiki. The Slider is the first thing that caught my eye, though I'm not sure if there's enough content here for something like that (and I don't think people need a link for soy packs on the main page). As for other features... I guess that the most important one is having nice-looking boxes that can be stacked on the main page, right? I'm interested in this. Let me know if there's something requiring sysop access.--Nathan2000 16:57, January 15, 2011 (UTC)


 * Please delete "Category:Portal_Templates" and "Template:Portal/Component". -- Snfonseka 15:43, January 17, 2011 (UTC)

Fixing the drop down link
Since "Category:Deus Ex: Human Revolution Characters" ‎has been removed, the link of the Deus Ex: Human Revolution -> Characters (the drop down in the top of the Wiki), now is not working. So please fix it. -- Snfonseka 18:44, January 18, 2011 (UTC)

Image dossier of the official website of Deus Ex
Hello my friend ;)!

I find your post here: http://forums.eidosgames.com/showthread.php?t=77490&page=3

and this image:

Woow excellent find, I didn't know of such an image containing a lot of information at the time appeared on the official website of Deus Ex.

The official website of Deus Ex being down, I tried to look for another image dossier of this type, but without result. Only you have this picture on internet and I was wondering if you had the other as that of Gunther Hermann and Joseph Manderley. It'd be cool to add its information to the Wiki, and finally you're my last hope to find.

Haaa please tell me that you have any others! Good day to you my friend and see you soon =)! Itachou [~talk~] 13:14, January 20, 2011 (UTC)
 * These are all the pictures I have (in decreasing order of usefulness). My attention to these pictures was drawn by nexusdx who used to have a ripped mirror of deusex.com. I don't know if it's available anywhere now.

Hey Nathan2000, it's very great thank you so much ^^! Count on me to add this informations!

Its also confirms me in addition because I was afraid of making a mistake, as Gunther is more or less compatible with the nano-augmentation (rejected by the vast majority of the population in 2052 but not by all) and that its augmentation with a satellite must be a nano-augmentation since in 2052 the mechanical-augmentation is no longer commercially and nobody wants it. Especially as the Majestic-12 no more practice this and they are the master in nano-augmentation at the time. In addition, he wanted a Skull-gun which is a nano-augmentation, since it would appear in Deus Ex: Invisible War.

I thank you enough to be able to post these images, you are a living god! Nice day my friend and see you soon! Itachou [~talk~] 15:16, January 20, 2011 (UTC)

Please delete
Please delete Template:QuoteBox, because I don't need to use it for Portals anymore. -- Snfonseka 17:58, January 20, 2011 (UTC)

Adding content to the CSS
Please go to this page and switch to "source view". Then copy the css content and please add that content to the "MediaWiki:Wikia.css" page. When adding them please use the correct font color and font type that are using in this Wiki (Current color and type are suitable for the DA Wiki, so you need modify them to suit with Deus Ex font color and type).

Please leave a message at my talk page when you are done.

I've done what you asked me to, though I'm still struggling with colors and fonts. I've never really touched the current skin so I'm wandering in the dark. BTW, what in hell is "IMFELLDWPicaPRORegular"?--Nathan2000 19:38, January 21, 2011 (UTC)

It is a font style. -- Snfonseka 03:29, January 22, 2011 (UTC)
 * Considering that it's a value of "font-family" property, this is one thing that I could guess myself.

Nice work with the CSS. This is the current outcome of the project (clear your browsers' cache before you view the page). Although there are a lot of minor things to improve my primary concern is about the placement of those elements. So I need to test some values and find out which values are more suitable. In order to do so you nead to lower the protection level of the CSS so and ordinary logged user can edit it. -- Snfonseka 04:05, January 22, 2011 (UTC)
 * I've seen it. I don't have experience with this site layout, but I'm not THAT ignorant. Unfortunately I can't lower the protection of CSS files. It seems to be hard-coded. User CSSs are probably disabled, so I guess the only way to let you edit it comfortably is to give you adminship. Which is sadly what I can't do (see above).--Nathan2000 13:52, January 22, 2011 (UTC)


 * My mistake, I should have check whether it is possible or not before asking you. Then I have to figure something else for this. I will get back to you later regarding this. -- Snfonseka 15:25, January 22, 2011 (UTC)

Adding content to the MediaWiki:Common.js
Please add the content in this (go to edit -> source mode to get the code) to the MediaWiki:Common.js of this Wiki. -- Snfonseka 16:07, January 22, 2011 (UTC)
