Hey, buddy. Thanks for improving that little area where I had begun to describe what purpose the Pizza Trophy will serve -- and I appreciate what you've done making the 'copy and paste' code area look better. It should have donned on me that it was more visually appealing to use those pretags instead of just blocking the wiki code from interpretation by using nowiki tags...

==He shoots; he Underscores!==
 +
Out of curiosity: I've noticed people making edits like [http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php?title=Dan&diff=205509&oldid=198276 that] one often, replacing underscores and %-giberish in links. In your edit it makes a lot of sense because the underscore was seen, but what about in piped links? I.e. is there a problem with, say, <nowiki>[[Some_page_with_many_word%27s#A_subsection|this]]</nowiki>? Is <nowiki>[[Some page with many word's#A subsection|this]]</nowiki> preferable, and if so why? &mdash;[[User:AbdiViklas|AbdiViklas]] 18:54, 25 November 2005 (UTC)
 +
:Hm.  I think that, as long as the link looks good (for example, with no visible underscores) then I don't think it really matters.  As far as I know, there isn't any official wiki policy regarding underscores in links.  {{User:Kilroy/sig}} 19:22, 25 November 2005 (UTC)
 +
::I disagree, Kilroy. Even in piped links, it's better to remove all that un-needed stuff. When a page is searched, MediaWiki doesn't search the plain text, but the code. So I think you can miss some results it the underscores are in. In talk pages, it's all right, but not in the article itself. It's also more plesent to the eye when editing a page. {{User:E.L. Cool/sig}} 15:17, 26 November 2005 (UTC)

:::As a side point, one thing that bugs me is that people often name the links to the strong bad email DVD as [[strongbad_email.exe]]. This is pretty much the only instance where [[strongbad_email.exe]] is the correct link. They go to the same place, but the underscore should usually be there. Just a side point that kind bugs me somethetimes. I always add the underscore when I see them. {{User:Thunderbird L17/Siggie}} 22:58, 26 November 2005 (UTC)

::::: Also (I don't know if any users do this), there is an option to make the wiki not underline links (under preferences-misc).  Anyone who has this selected could be confused by unnecessary underscores. [[User:SparkPlug|SparkPlug]] 23:32, 26 November 2005 (UTC)

== Deleting images ==
 +
Hi there Kilroy.  When fixing images, it's best to reupload an image with the same exact filename to replace an older version.  This way, [http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php?title=Ballad_of_The_Sneak&oldid=205018 historic] [http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php?title=Strong_Bad_is_in_Jail_Cartoon&oldid=202947 pages] [http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php?title=Toons&oldid=205143 are not] without current images.  And remember, space is not an issue, so deleting old revisions isn't really necessary either, especially since not deleting them preserves the images' history.  And of course, image deletion cannot be undone, so everything is permanent.
 +
And out of curiosity, what was wrong with those images that needed fixing?[[User:Tom|<nowiki></nowiki>]]  --  [[User:Tom|Tom]] 22:50, 25 November 2005 (UTC)
 +
 
 +
:''Above headline was posted by Tom, not me.'' Why did you just post a headline? - {{User:Kookykman/sig}}
 +
 
 +
::Because I mistakenly hit the "enter" key while I was in the "Subject/headline" box and not the "editform" textarea.  Thanks for being so quick to point that out.[[User:Tom|<nowiki></nowiki>]]  --  [[User:Tom|Tom]] 22:50, 25 November 2005 (UTC)
 +
 
 +
:::Hi Tom.  First of all, I reuploaded those images because they wouldn't display for me in my browser, not even after clearing my cache or anything.  I thought the wiki was experiencing a problem similar to the one when we [[HRWiki_talk:Upgrade_to_MediaWiki_1.5#Images|upgraded to MediaWiki 1.5]].  Anyway, when I reuploaded those images, I did reupload them with the exact same filename - the MediaWiki software just capitalized the first letter of the filenames, making them different.  I hope that explains why I deleted and reuploaded those images.  Thanks for asking,  if I ever do anything like that in the future I'll remember not to delete the old images. 
 +
 
 +
:::'''EDIT:'''  Oh, now I see.  The "destination filename" box on the upload page.  I will remember to use that next time!  (Why didn't I think of using that?!)  {{User:Kilroy/sig}} 15:02, 26 November 2005 (UTC)
 +
 
 +
::::I'd like to eliminate whatever part of the program is automatically capitalizing these filenames. Obviously, the software didn't used to do that, and now that it does it's kind of annoying. As you noticed, Kilroy, you can manually type in a lowercase letter in the "Destination filename" field. Also, if you click "Upload a new version of this file" on the image page, it will fill in the destinatinon filename with an initial lowercase letter if that's how it already is in the file. &mdash; [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 15:19, 26 November 2005 (UTC)

Sorry for my sudden departure, the wiki started freezing up. I've got a really slow connection, which is a bad combination for some already slow sites. Eventually they just stop sometimes (continual loading of a page), and there's nothing I can do but let them chill. It looks really cool though, the image. The one thing I messed up with though, I meant top left. Stretch to fit would be prefferable, if it's possible. If not, top left would be fine. Thanks Kilroy! {{User:Thunderbird L17/Siggie}} 22:54, 26 November 2005 (UTC)

:Yeah, the wiki freezes up a lot.  It's called free hosting.  Anyway, I'll fix it as soon as the wiki is thawed out - er, unfrozen - er, whatever.  {{User:Kilroy/sig}} 23:00, 26 November 2005 (UTC)

Welcome to my talk archives. People like talking to me for some reason. Here's where all the old conversations and stuff go.

If you want to reply to something already here, you may do so, but it'd be nice if you move the section you are replying in to my main talk page first.

[edit] Shopiom's comments

Welcome, Kilroy! You remember me. You know. From the forum. -Shopiom

Yes, I do. You rock. Kilroy

Even though I stole two half dollars fro-I mean, never, ever did anything wrong! -Shopiom

[edit] Image

{Link removed, I told you, no one's supposed to see that!!!!!}

Now give me my money. --FireBird

Um, I meant what classic video game that's from, not WHERE it's from.... yeah.... sorry, you can have ONE half dollar I guess... :D --Kilroy 18:56, 23 Oct 2004 (MST)
I'm assuming it's NOT Outrun 2019, considering that's what the image filename is? I mean, it CAN'T be, that'd be far too easy a gain of some dough.
Seems to be an interesting story behind the sign, though, and one that happened during WWII to boot... but that's a different matter for a different time. Shadow Hog 20:22, 23 Oct 2004 (MST)
Sorry to say this, but the answer was obvious.... Outrun 2019 is correct... --Kilroy 20:52, 23 Oct 2004 (MST)

[edit] Welcome message code display

Hey there Kilroy. I just noticed your link for quickly grabbing your welcome message code. There are a few ways you can make this a little easier for your self. Either encloce the links and your signature code in <nowiki> tags, or put the whole message in <pre> tags. Both of these methods will eliminate the need for you to click anything. What a time saver! -- Tom 19:23, 24 Oct 2004 (MST)

Why didn't I think of that before. Thanks Tom!!! --Kilroy 19:38, 24 Oct 2004 (MST)

[edit] Bit overzealous on the editing

Changing "50 emails" back wasn't necessary. The comment about "flagrant error" being like the Windows BSOD makes absolutely no sense (Have you seen a BSOD in Windows lately? They're called "stop errors" for a reason.) Flagrant sounds a lot more like the old "illegal operations" from Windows 3.1.

Okay, I don't understand... The fun fact, before you changed it, was talking about how the flagrant error screen looks like the Windows BSOD. You changed it to suggest that it is a spoof of general error messages, however, it is obvious that TBC were making fun of the BSOD with their "flagrant error" message. That's why I changed it back. Your comment, however, suggests that you were trying to say that the TERM "flagrant error" sounds like the old illegal operations from Windows 3.1, is that correct? Maybe you misunderstood what the fun fact was actually meaning? --Kilroy 22:11, 31 Oct 2004 (MST)
Blue screens of death haven't used the term "illegal operation" since Windows 9x. The error "illegal operation" actually first started as a dialog box in the Win 3.1 era. It's a matter of detail. I've changed the page again to reflect both sides.
Good job. I like what it says now. --Kilroy 22:21, 31 Oct 2004 (MST)

[edit] Category line breaks

Hey, good catch with the category line break thing. I had been wondering what was causing all that whitespace on some pages. -- Tom 23:30, 6 Nov 2004 (MST)

Thanks. --Kilroy 23:45, 6 Nov 2004 (MST)

[edit] Help

I notice you created another help section. We already have one. Just so you know why I deleted it. :) -- FireBird|Talk

I never created any help sections. If you're refering to HRWiki:Help, I never created it. Anyways, good job deleting the other help section. --Kilroy 18:02, 7 Nov 2004 (MST)
Oh. I could have sworn you did. And small text was there for a reason.-- FireBird|Talk
Yeah, I know, the small text is part of your signature, but for some reason, on my user talk page, unless I edit your signatures, my replys are typed in small text! --Kilroy 20:32, 7 Nov 2004 (MST)
There. Sorry 'bout that.-- FireBird|Talk

[edit] Hey.

Hey, I'm just dropping a line. I'm too tired to log in. Anyway, hi and what's up? 64.12.117.5 00:13, 13 Nov 2004 (MST)User talk:Hagurumon

Hey Hagurumon. Not much going on. I'm just bored. --Kilroy 08:24, 13 Nov 2004 (MST)

[edit] Moving

I noticed you recently moved Peasant's Quest Preview, and then changed all the links. If I'm not mistaking, all the redirected links direct to Peasant's Quest Preview, without having to change the links. Just trying to save you some trouble. :) -- FireBird|Talk

I thought it was best for the links to just go directly to the page instead of having to go through a redirect. It wasn't a problem at all for me to change them though. Thanks for noticing. --Kilroy 16:45, 15 Nov 2004 (MST)

[edit] Deletion vs. Redirect

I noticed you found that I changed Crazy Cartoon (toon) into a redirect to crazy cartoon, and marked it for deletion instead -- I'm guessing you noticed that nowhere else linked to it, and thought there'd be no harm in deleting it. However, I'd still rather not do that yet for two reasons: 1. other websites may link to Crazy Cartoon (toon), including search engines (not likely, but possible), 2. I want to keep the edit history because I haven't really looked through what was already there yet -- perhaps there might be something that is said or done better in that version of the transcript, or whatever, and, finally, 3. other people might not have noticed the change yet and try to link to Crazy Cartoon (toon). On the other hand, I see no harm at all as leaving it as a redirect (the impact on webspace and bandwidth would be next to nil). I'm not scolding you or anything, just saying that you may be jumping the gun a bit there. :) - furrykef 02:10, 20 Nov 2004 (MST)

Yeah, I had assumed you were done with it, since you had fixed all the links and had integrated the material into the main crazy cartoon page. But it makes sense to me now why you wanted it to be a redirect. Thanks.
P.S. Nice job merging the content from Crazy Cartoon (toon) to the email page. You did a MUCH better job than what I did (I had created the "Viewing the Email from the Toons menu" section). What you did was much better. Thanks. --[[User:Kilroy|Kilroy/talk]] 08:42, 20 Nov 2004 (MST)

[edit] Sig

Heya, Kilroy. I liked your sig so much I stoled it ^_^ --[[User:Southpaw018|Southpaw018|talk]] 14:06, 21 Nov 2004 (MST)

Well, still small, but cool. →FireBird

[edit] Pizza Trophy Modification

Hey, buddy. Thanks for improving that little area where I had begun to describe what purpose the Pizza Trophy will serve -- and I appreciate what you've done making the 'copy and paste' code area look better. It should have donned on me that it was more visually appealing to use those pretags instead of just blocking the wiki code from interpretation by using nowiki tags... It's lookin good now thanks to your fixes. So thanks, and you're well on your way to earning one of those aforementioned trophies - complete with bronzed pepperoni! --The Paper 22:58, 12 Dec 2004 (MST)

[edit] Sub-pages

Kilroy, as you know, sub-pages are prohibited on our wiki, and that includes userpages. Please find another way to display your archives without subpages and add the sub-pages to Category:To be deleted. Thanks. — InterruptorJones[[]] 19:33, 11 Jan 2005 (MST)

Alright, maybe I shouldn't be doing this on Kilroy's talk page (which incidentally seems to be the only User Page in my watchlist... methinks I should remove it soon >>;), but I've got a question: why? What good does not having ANY sub-pages, even in instances where they would be sensical, do us? Not saying it has to change, just want a reason. --Shadow Hog 20:34, 11 Jan 2005 (MST)
I thought subpages were allowed on user talk pages only for archival purposes? JoeyDay himself said this on Happy's talk page [1] :
You can create a subpage in your discussion page for archival purposes, but your user page cannot have subpages. To create a subpage in your discussion page, link to it like this: "User talk:Happy/subpage".
Anyway, I've gone ahead and listed my archive page for deletion, I just assumed that those kinds of subpages were allowed. Go ahead and delete it. --[[User:Kilroy|Kilroy/talk]] 21:36, 11 Jan 2005 (MST)

[edit] Welcome Template

I saw your Kilroy e-mails. I sent you one. I wouldn't have sent you one if you weren't awesome :) mathgrant 00:38, 28 Jan 2005 (MST)

Your response is pretty awesome so far, but there's one thing I don't like about it: "To Be Continued". Ugh! How I hate those words! I can't wait for you to replace them with something awesome and funny and awesomely funny! :) mathgrant 21:14, 28 Jan 2005 (MST)

[edit] Kilroy e-mail note!

My latest Kilroy e-mail was obtained as follows.

I took the following e-mail:

Dear Kilroy,
You are very awesome and I like you so much. My question for you is: how 
come you don't do your own version of the "advice" email???

Then I put it in Babelfish [2] and translated it from English to Spanish and back again. Which is why it is nigh unintelligible. :-)

[edit] FAQ Type Thingy


FAQ Type Thingy!


1. Why did you choose your name?

Cause I liked the song Mr. Roboto enough I just had to have the name Kilroy. — Kilroy / talk

2. Will you go to my userpage and at least check it out? PLEASE? --Because, It's Midnite

Sure... — Kilroy / talk 16:13, 17 Jun 2005 (UTC)
Oh cool, you're from Utah too. — Kilroy / talk 16:22, 17 Jun 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Fix link, please

Hey Kilroy, it's Dot com. I don't think we've ever spoken. I'm the one who spearheaded the STUFF reform, and I noticed you were fixing the redirects. Will you fix one more thing: on Template:stuffend, the link needs to read "[[HRWiki:STUFF#STUFF'd facts|Back to STUFF index]]". (Jay protected my templates before I was quite done with them.) Thanks! — It's dot com 16:34, 17 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Fixed it. — Kilroy / talk 16:37, 17 Jun 2005 (UTC)
Thanks. I found one more: Template:checkstuffpage: [[HRWiki:STUFF|instructions]] — It's dot com
Cool, Jay already fixed that one. — Kilroy / talk 19:32, 18 Jun 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Page-move vandal

You've gotta block the whole IP range or he will be back in just a few minutes. — It's dot com 21:57, 3 Sep 2005 (UTC)

Also, this is the third such attack. 72 hours probably isn't enough. — It's dot com
I agree. I'm gonna reblock him indefinitely. And how do I block his IP range? I don't even know what his IP address is! — Kilroy / talk 21:59, 3 Sep 2005 (UTC)
You might try: User:65.167.0.0/16. That's the range Jay blocked when we fought him not too long ago. — It's dot com 22:11, 3 Sep 2005 (UTC)
Okay, the 65.167.0.0/16 range is blocked. — Kilroy / talk 22:18, 3 Sep 2005 (UTC)
Thanks for your help. — It's dot com

[edit] He shoots; he Underscores!

Out of curiosity: I've noticed people making edits like that one often, replacing underscores and %-giberish in links. In your edit it makes a lot of sense because the underscore was seen, but what about in piped links? I.e. is there a problem with, say, [[Some_page_with_many_word%27s#A_subsection|this]]? Is [[Some page with many word's#A subsection|this]] preferable, and if so why? —AbdiViklas 18:54, 25 November 2005 (UTC)

Hm. I think that, as long as the link looks good (for example, with no visible underscores) then I don't think it really matters. As far as I know, there isn't any official wiki policy regarding underscores in links. — Kilroy / talk 19:22, 25 November 2005 (UTC)
I disagree, Kilroy. Even in piped links, it's better to remove all that un-needed stuff. When a page is searched, MediaWiki doesn't search the plain text, but the code. So I think you can miss some results it the underscores are in. In talk pages, it's all right, but not in the article itself. It's also more plesent to the eye when editing a page. Elcool (talk)(contribs) 15:17, 26 November 2005 (UTC)
As a side point, one thing that bugs me is that people often name the links to the strong bad email DVD as strongbad_email.exe. This is pretty much the only instance where strongbad_email.exe is the correct link. They go to the same place, but the underscore should usually be there. Just a side point that kind bugs me somethetimes. I always add the underscore when I see them. Thunderbird 22:58, 26 November 2005 (UTC)
Thanks, El Coolio; that's what I was looking for, a good reason. —AbdiViklas 23:10, 26 November 2005 (UTC)
Also (I don't know if any users do this), there is an option to make the wiki not underline links (under preferences-misc). Anyone who has this selected could be confused by unnecessary underscores. SparkPlug 23:32, 26 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Deleting images

Hi there Kilroy. When fixing images, it's best to reupload an image with the same exact filename to replace an older version. This way, historic pages are not without current images. And remember, space is not an issue, so deleting old revisions isn't really necessary either, especially since not deleting them preserves the images' history. And of course, image deletion cannot be undone, so everything is permanent. And out of curiosity, what was wrong with those images that needed fixing? -- Tom 22:50, 25 November 2005 (UTC)

Above headline was posted by Tom, not me. Why did you just post a headline? - KookykmanImage:kookysig.gif(t)(c)(r)
Because I mistakenly hit the "enter" key while I was in the "Subject/headline" box and not the "editform" textarea. Thanks for being so quick to point that out. -- Tom 22:50, 25 November 2005 (UTC)
Hi Tom. First of all, I reuploaded those images because they wouldn't display for me in my browser, not even after clearing my cache or anything. I thought the wiki was experiencing a problem similar to the one when we upgraded to MediaWiki 1.5. Anyway, when I reuploaded those images, I did reupload them with the exact same filename - the MediaWiki software just capitalized the first letter of the filenames, making them different. I hope that explains why I deleted and reuploaded those images. Thanks for asking, if I ever do anything like that in the future I'll remember not to delete the old images.
EDIT: Oh, now I see. The "destination filename" box on the upload page. I will remember to use that next time! (Why didn't I think of using that?!) — Kilroy / talk 15:02, 26 November 2005 (UTC)
I'd like to eliminate whatever part of the program is automatically capitalizing these filenames. Obviously, the software didn't used to do that, and now that it does it's kind of annoying. As you noticed, Kilroy, you can manually type in a lowercase letter in the "Destination filename" field. Also, if you click "Upload a new version of this file" on the image page, it will fill in the destinatinon filename with an initial lowercase letter if that's how it already is in the file. — It's dot com 15:19, 26 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] PBKWiki

Sorry for my sudden departure, the wiki started freezing up. I've got a really slow connection, which is a bad combination for some already slow sites. Eventually they just stop sometimes (continual loading of a page), and there's nothing I can do but let them chill. It looks really cool though, the image. The one thing I messed up with though, I meant top left. Stretch to fit would be prefferable, if it's possible. If not, top left would be fine. Thanks Kilroy! Thunderbird 22:54, 26 November 2005 (UTC)

Yeah, the wiki freezes up a lot. It's called free hosting. Anyway, I'll fix it as soon as the wiki is thawed out - er, unfrozen - er, whatever. — Kilroy / talk 23:00, 26 November 2005 (UTC)
I know. My website does the same thing pretty often. Such is the life of free hosting...  :) Thunderbird 23:03, 26 November 2005 (UTC)
Okray, the wiki's unfrozen, everything is fine, nothing is ruined. Yeah.. and I fixed your background thing so it's at the top left now. (I don't know how to make it so it stretches to fit.) — Kilroy / talk 23:47, 26 November 2005 (UTC)

Hi Kilroy! How are you? I was looking at your page, and I just noticed you added a guestbook to it! I also noticed that your userpage is protected from edits. Just wanted to point that out if you wanted signatures. I'd be the first to sign. --Stux 08:24, 8 December 2005 (UTC)

You got to clean up your wiki. It's dead. Try to get more people on it or sumpin. --TheThin 00:28, 12 April 2006 (UTC)

Yeah, I know.. I'm not really trying to get more people to visit it. I'm not interested in turning my wiki into a really popular place. I've done enough advertising here and there and I'm satisfied with the way things are. A few of my real life friends still visit the wiki often and a few HRWikians pop in from time to time and that's just fine for me. I rather like having my wiki and website secluded like that. Anyway, The thing, I think the reason why it hasn't been as popular is because I've been slackin' off answering emails for a few months now. Ya know, I think I'ma answer that untitled email tonight.
