Re: Need some profile help..
Hey there :)

I get asked this question a lot, and it's gotten to the point where I just copy/paste a message to all those who want help. It's not that I don't care/don't want to help, it's just that I think this is the best way for you to be happy with your profile.

So, I'll tell you what I tell everyone who wants help with their profile:
 * 1) Take it slowly.
 * 2) Do everything yourself.

The reason I say this is because a lot of people try to make their profiles really great really fast, and try to get others to help. Help is great, but if someone else makes your profile and you want to change it, it can be very hard to not mess up codes and get what you like. If you make it yourself, you will always know where everything is and exactly what needs to be changed to get your desired results. Taking it slow is good because you can learn and do things at your own pace. Trust me, everyone started somewhere. I had nothing on my profile for around 6 months whilst I learnt to code, and it has taken me a very long time to make my profile look like it does. There were a lot of stuff ups, a lot of just black text and a lot of changes made. If you look through my page history you'll see ;D

However, here are some very helpful pages you might find useful:
 * The Help Profile Page. This page details the typical codes people like to use on their profiles, and teaches you how to put them in correctly.
 * The Ultimate Wiki Markup Gude. Yes, gude XD This blog has heaps of simple little tips for putting in pictures, text and boxes etc.
 * User Badges Page. This page has all of the badges we have on the Wiki that you can use to brighten up your profile ^__^

My first profile used the codes found on the above pages, and I slowly worked from there changing little things bit by bit as I worked on the Wiki and learnt more :)

If this is still a little bland for you, feel free to copy my codes for your own use, just please make sure to change the images and information and all that jazz~

I think you've likely read these pages already though, looking at the profile you have now. So, above is the only advice I think I can really give, but don't worry about trying to get everything in one go, because it just takes time. Besides, I think your profile is looking great already :D

Re: Need your opinion
First, sorry for my late reply T^T Uni killed me yesterday with an early wake-up :P

Hmmmm... This is always a tough question...

I think it really depends on what you think you'll be good at :) Some guild require more work than others (the Image Guild and Referencia for example need both gif expertise and coding ability) and then you get guilds like the Grammar Guild, which only require you to have good English. Guilds though do require you to at least have limited Wiki experience, but you've shown through your profile that you do understand codes and the like.

Tell you what. I closed Anime Summary Guild applications a little while ago but I still haven't gotten around to contacting the applicants for the second stage of the application process. If you like, would you like to do a last minute application for the ASG? :) Only if you watch and like the anime, of course~

Let me know ;D

01:28, May 6, 2014 (UTC)

Cools~

So yep, if you go to the ASG talk page, just ignore the closed sign and post an application there. You'll still have to pass the second part of the process (I have 4 applicants including you and I'm only taking 2) but you'll be in with a shot ^__^

03:07, May 6, 2014 (UTC)

Hey
I'm just passing by and noticed your edit, so I thought i'd assist you. The codes for that isn't ' ', but rather ' '. So if you would replace your current input with the latter you'll get what you wanted. :)

That's nothing. :) Though anyway the tags should be brackets so you should put and not . If you're having any trouble feel free to ask me. ^_^

ASG application, part 2!
Hello applicants of the Anime Summary Guild! This is your potential Guild Master, Carrot -sama !! I am so sorry for the lateness of this second trial... my schedule has been packed and I was putting off ASG work as a consequence. I hope you're still interested in being a part of the ASG ^__^

Just as all other members of the ASG have had to face it, you too will have to complete the second part of the application process for the ASG: the summary test! *dundunDUUUUN!!* This part of the application process is very important, as it'll help me decide which of the applicants (if any) earn a position in my guild :)

What you have to do is this: I would like you to leave me a message on my talk page that summarises what happened to either Lucy or Natsu in episode 1 of the Fairy Tail anime. Easy, you say? Well, I want you to summarise in only 3 sentences.

To assist you, I am going to give you an example right now; however, I will summarise for Lucy in episode 2, so that we get no copy-cats ;D


 * "Lucy is taken to the Fairy Tail guild by Natsu and Happy, and soon meets all of the other interesting Mages that work there, including Fairy Tail's Master, Makarov1. After hearing that one of his guild-mates, Macao, has not returned from a job, Natsu heads out to find him, and Lucy goes too2. Upon finding the monster that Macao was meant to be hunting, Lucy and Natsu are forced into battle, only to find out that the monster is Macao himself, whom they bandage and escort back to the guild3."

So, that is my task. You have until May 31st to respond, after which I will inform the newest members of their acceptance at the start of June when I update the guild page. Please post your short summary on my talk page, not on the guild's talkpage.

This will greatly assist in me deciding who to accept, as it covers 5 basic things:
 * That you have the ability to summarise without giving extreme detail
 * That you have good grammar
 * That you can use more than just simple sentences. In fact, this task requires the use of compound-complex sentences to get nice flow and content
 * That you can follow instructions when they are given, and
 * That you can read through long paragraphs of rant that I often type for no reason what-so-ever <- this one is important... she rants a lot >.<

But also know some things:
 * Please only summarise Natsu or Lucy. You won't get bonus marks for doing both
 * Don't copy someone else's post. It is easy to see plagiarism and I hate it!
 * If you do not respond to this message, I will assume you are no longer interested in a position in my guild
 * You can change what you write as many times as you like up until May 31st, after which I will ignore any further changes when I decide

Thank-you and good luck! I look forward to reading your messages, That sexy Guild Master, 06:30, May 23, 2014 (UTC)

Messages
I know it's probably very late already, but please do not remove any message again from your talk page, unless of course you find it offensive. It's a violation of the Talk Page Policy.

Signature
Hi there Nerdyanimegirl225, I am ChokokuguzaNoTobira, one of the members. Hope you're having a good day / night.

I am here to kindly ask you to put the coding of your signature in a sub page, because it takes too much space whenever you place your signature somewhere. Should you be needing my help about it, please do leave a message in my talk page. Thank you.

Lotsa love, Choko

I see. Well then, point your cursor over your username until a drop down menu appears that has four options, being your Talk Page, Preferences, Help and Log out. Click over the preferences. On the signature part, put this in the custom signature: then check the box underneath, that says "I want to use wikitext in my signature" then save your changes. Should it goes wrong, message me again.

Okay, I just remembered what I missed. Okay, here:
 * Create this page first:
 * Once done, all you have to do is put in that page is:
 * Then go over your preferences, and just remove the 1 in the Sig part on the custom signature, so it should appear as:

Should this still goes wrong, let me know.

You won't be able to see the "Leave Message" button on your own talk page because it's your own talk page.

Yes, it's now working. Good job. :)

No problem at all. Glad to be of service. :)

Sure. :)

Oh, which reminds me, how many tidles that you use when signing something?

If you look at it carefully, your signature has double time stamps. So I want you to try this:
 * Before sending your response to this message, try using 3 tidles, then preview. If the time stamp doesn't double, use 3 from now on.
 * Should the time stamp remains double despite using 3, go to your preferences and see if this: is doubled in the custom signature box. If it is, kindly delete one for you not to have double timestamps.

Looking forward to the results.

Yes. Thank you for cooperating. :)

Hey!!
Hey and Otakuchan 101 says hi as well. Okay that manga I was telling you about its name is Taiyou No Ie. BTW its Mao not Maho--Takane Kokonose (talk) 02:12, May 27, 2014 (UTC)

Oh yeah you know on how my hate list for badges thing only showed four characters when there was a ton. Well all of a sudden I feel smart 'cause I fixed it (even though i suck at programming). Well now I feel proud!!! Well seeya >.<--Takane Kokonose (talk) 02:18, May 27, 2014 (UTC)

I finally finished programming my whole badges page...... and I have no idea what page to make next :( sadly..... please help me!!--Takane Kokonose (talk) 03:05, May 27, 2014 (UTC)

Image
It looks fine. =) 13:49, May 29, 2014 (UTC)

Re:Image trouble....
You can't add exclamation points to images. :) 14:23, May 30, 2014 (UTC)

Images
Hi, please upload any future images in .png format if possible, to preserve quality and allow easier replacement if any of the Image Guild members deems it necessary. Thank you. 02:28, May 31, 2014 (UTC)

Your images are not very good. Please stop uploading images for a minute. They will all be deleted. I do not want to block you. 02:52, May 31, 2014 (UTC)

Thank you for understanding! And don't be afraid to ask questions. :) 03:43, May 31, 2014 (UTC)

Thanks
Hey Nerdy just wanted to thank you again for the help on my profile. I am in debt to you so if you need anything just message me.--add/sig1 (talk) 01:11, June 1, 2014 (UTC)Hope Sky

Right here. :) 21:58, June 2, 2014 (UTC)

Wiki time runs a bit different. D: 22:50, June 2, 2014 (UTC)

Re: Chat
Yea Chat seems to be problematic again.

Hmm, it may help to see what the DOD has done before, and see if you can do something similar to their styles? If you want to, then message Reli when he's back.

No prob. Also chat is back again fyi.

Manga
About what you said about any other good manga rather than Taiyou no Ie, you should read Nisekoi it is really funny and is sorta like Taiyou no Ie. Another really good manga would also be Kagerou Project, this manga has a few names like Kagerou Days or Kagerou Daze. That manga has a lot of sad moments and is really exciting and it is a sci-fi manga. Hibi Chouchou is also another good manga but I'm going to warn you that it is soooo slow-paced. Say I Love You is considered a really good manga but I just watched the anime. NORAGAMI YOU HAVE TO READ THE MANGA!!!!!! As you can see I love this manga. It has a lot of humor in it and you will love it!!! That's it for now I'm gonna recommend more manga later, just wait.. --Takane Kokonose (talk) 04:03, June 4, 2014 (UTC)

Re: Need Help, (once again >.<)
Hey Nerdy~

Sorry for the late reply. Just been so busy lately.

Anywho, I looked over the page and tested some things and I can't seem to pinpoint the cause of the funny collapses :(

I absolutely SUCK with complex codes though, so I'm probably the worst person to ask ^__^" I'd recommend seeing one of the Dragons of Design, as they are some of the Wiki's best coders and I'm sure they'll pinpoint the issue in a millisecond ;)

Sorry for being no help D;

13:06, June 4, 2014 (UTC)

Couldn't help but notice you had a problem with coding when I was glancing at the recent changes. I took a quick look and the problem may be that you did not close any of your span tags. Whenever you have a  you need a   after what you wanted styled with the initial tag. If you don't close these, it can cause problems. I don't have the time to look too carefully right now to see if that is the problem or not but that may help.--

I knew u would luv Nisekoi. Another reeeeeeeeeeeally famous one would be Kimi ni Todoke. It is a really sweet manga/anime. Tell me how the other animes/manga are going. Ene

RE:Problem
Okay, I'll fix it for you and message you when I'm done. :3 01:51,6/6/2014


 * Fixed. It was your exclamation points. They were messing with the coding. :) 01:58,6/6/2014

Welcome!
Thank you for your application for the Anime Summary Guild!

I am happy to inform you that you have been accepted into the guild! Yay~ *throws streamers*

Please feel free to put our guild badge on your profile by typing and begin taking jobs at your earliest convenience. As a staring point though, perhaps a few smaller practice jobs would be beneficial, so that you can get used to the type of work we do. Please also read through the ASG guidelines once more just to make sure everything is 100% okay ^__^

I look forward to working with you more :)

14:54, June 6, 2014 (UTC)

A warm welcome
Hey there Nerdyanimegirl! I am Raven, the S-Class Mage of ASG :D congrats and welcome to our team! If you have any questions about the job that needs to be done or need help with anything, just let me know! I'll be happy to help. I'm looking forward to working with you! 18:56,6/6/2014

Have you watched the Fairy Tail OVAs? In that case, since you're a newbie I'd heavily suggest getting some of those Character Summaries to be Written jobs done. What you have to do is:
 * Read the guidelines about writing Character Summaries, which you can find in the ASG page under the application :)
 * Choose 1-3 characters you want to write about.
 * Write the actual thing. If you want help, maybe you'll want to see how other pages have the summary written. The best choice would be to check a page like this and see how the summaries in this article are written and referenced. Add an image or two to illustrate your text if you want, and you're done!
 * Don't be afraid, whatever you write is better than nothing. Me or Carrot will be there to supervise your work and let you know if something needs to be changed.

That's all, I guess! After you get the hang of the Character jobs, you can get on with the "bigger" ones, the Episode and the Manga & Anime Differences jobs. If there's anything more, you know where to find me ;) 20:42,6/6/2014

Nice, sounds good! Happy editing :D 20:50,6/6/2014

Alright, I checked your summary! It was pretty good! You can click the History button under Edit on the page to see the changes that I made. I only want to comment on one thing; when the summary is about a central character of an OVA like Natsu, maybe it needs just a little bit more details on the events they took part in! Look at the changes I made and you'll understand ;)

Overall you did well though! Good job! 09:37,6/7/2014

Put it under the Magic and Abilities section. As for the Natsu job, I've checked it but I'll probably add it to the approved list tomorrow morning once I have some time in my hands :) 21:07,6/7/2014

Re: ASG
Hey Nerdy.

I'll see if I can look over your jobs, but for this month you're probably better off seeking help from Raven, as I'm busy with exams and study and stuff DX Thanks for the hard work though and I'll try to be back soon :)

07:19, June 10, 2014 (UTC)

Re: Happy Birthday
Thanks for the birthday wishes Nerdy! Even though you are a little late. 22:31, June 11, 2014 (UTC)

^.^
"All of you users are sooooo sweet and nice, I hope that I can become really good friends with you Mamerge if I haven't already." Well, I treat everyone in the Wiki as friends and, just so you know, that includes you, too, Lisa~ :) I won't be as active as I was before, but I'll still come often on chat if I can. :)

Re: Archive
About the decorative boxes, it's actually the same way on how you made your banner on your Talk Page, really. Some prefer it simple while some prefers it complicated. Some of the good codes can be found on God's Ultimate Mark-up guide, a blog that can be seen on our community messages.

About the photo linking, it should go as: size|link|title which results to this: (see this in edit mode so you know how I made it) So basically, pick the appropriate file that you want, set its size, link it somewhere you want it and you can also add a customized title to it, just like the one I set in an example, but that's optional.

About archiving, contact Hibiki and ask him about it. Alright, I'm kidding. It's basically the same as making a subpage: User:Nerdyanimegirl225/Archive 1 (or any name you want it as it is) which allows you to store your old messages inside, but make sure that you wont delete anything, and every messages has to remain intact.

I guess that's all I can say. If ever you encounter problems, let me know.

Re: Happy Birthday Master YumYum!!!
Thank you so much Nerdy! (Lol, I almost called you Neredy XD) I had a great day and I'm just happy my exams are over and I can be back here more :P Also looking forward to working with you more in the ASG ^__^ I hope Raven treated you well >;)
