You know you're a Stargate fan when...
Here's one may put down on the list; when someone says "starga.." in "stargazing", you assume "Stargate". That's what I thought when I saw Doctor Who's "Tooth and Claw" last night, which had "stargazing" mentioned a few times. -- Matthew R Dunn (talk) (Contribs) 17:19, February 11, 2010 (UTC)
 * Heh... I guess that's happened a few times too. :) Reminds me... I should start watching Dr. Who again. I still have one David Tennant episode to go. —Anubis 10545 (talk) (Contribs) 01:16, February 12, 2010 (UTC)

Canon's Ring
Jaymach Keeps on saying that the Goa'uld healing ring used by Vala in the episode Prometheus Unbound has the same ablitys as the ring used by Canon in the episode Demons, despite having been shown to do different things. He keeps changing any edits to the Canon's ring & Goa'uld healing device article's as well as deleting the healing ring page, saying that it's like the Kara kesh and can do multiple things dispite no evidence of this unlike the Kara kesh. Can you help? Awar 14:35, February 13, 2010 (UTC)
 * please read his talk page for a better idea of the problem between us. Awar 14:45, February 13, 2010 (UTC)
 * I'm not trying to pick sides (kind of), but I will say that (as the technologies are both of Goa'uld origin) it is plausible that they are the same device. Maybe Val's ring was a newer model or maybe it was modified. There could be more than one function to it and it might be easily programmable.


 * On a related note... it seems much more implausible that (with the Serrakin pistol) a completely different race of aliens in a completely different galaxy in a completely different reality could come into possession of the exact same weapon. It seems like one would have to "assume" to a much greater degree that they're the same weapons than not. My point is (well, one of them anyway :), that the canon's ring issue is far more plausible than this (in my opinion), and it wouldn't be that far of a stretch to label them as the same device given the similarities of origin they share. —Anubis 10545 (talk) (Contribs) 18:36, February 13, 2010 (UTC)

I agree that they might do both jobs, but my point is that it is never shown or mentioned to do so unlike the Kara kesh.
 * Also about the Serrakin pistol, Wraith spear gun & even the Canon's ring are just prop reuse's to reduce the cost of the show. The effect of the Bedrosian rifle was later used for the Wraith weapons & even the Ori stun weapon, just recoloured
 * On a side note what is the chances of every civilation in history inventing the Bow & Arrow a complex weapon?

signature
so i was wondering about this and i decided to ask you because youre an admin, how exactly do you change your signature? thanks —Asdf1239 (talk) (Contribs) 12:29, February 18, 2010 (UTC)
 * The easiest thing probably would be to follow the discussion about that here. Just follow User:Ka'lel's example and, if you have any other questions, feel free to ask me. —Anubis 10545 (talk) (Contribs) 01:32, February 19, 2010 (UTC)
 * By the way: means the same thing as Template:User:Ka'lel/sig... just in case that confused you at some point.
 * hey thanks it works — 02:02, February 19, 2010 (UTC)

304 Name
Why don't you come up with some names of more 304's like the Agrian or something like that.

userboxes
hi is there a category or list of premade userbox templates here? thanks — 02:13, March 1, 2010 (UTC)
 * No... mainly because there are very few userboxes in use here on userpages... and because there aren't templates as people just place the actual userbox text on their userpage. —Anubis 10545 (talk) (Contribs) 05:41, March 1, 2010 (UTC)

useless pages
ive noticed there are a bunch of useless pages on here

example: http://stargate.wikia.com/wiki/Frootees

is this really nessecary or are people just trying to get a higher number on their profiles.

Really?
 * Well, I created that page and frankly could care less about my edit number. As an encyclopedia for everything Stargate, naturally we include all sorts of articles here, including ones that may lack a large amount of content. Frootees are unique to the show and the Stargate universe and are, therefore, documented on this site. I would hardly say that articles such as the Frootees one are useless... they're just stubs... and are just as important as other articles here. While we do discourage articles that have little value, usefulness isn't necessarily based on size. —Anubis 10545 (talk) (Contribs) 04:52, March 26, 2010 (UTC)
 * Generally, if I can find a quote, image, and brief description, and or external link, that's usually enough to constitute an article... albeit a small one.

still, an article which is one or two lines is USELESS, you could jsut as easily refernece it in another article where it comes up (eg. that Frootees one could be mentioned in the Continuum page under references or notes.


 * if we went by that policy we wouldn't have articles on Robert Grosseteste, MP3 player, or PlayStation, they bear significance to the story (no matter how much) and are therefore notable 05:44, March 28, 2010 (UTC)

...and that is why the wiki is circling the drain and is mocked pretty much everywhere....
 * Oh come on.... it's not nearly that bad. You go to any other and you'd find that they have terrible standards: lacking in proper category chains, having grammar errors left and right, having a complete disregard for in-universe perspective and neutral point of view. I mean, your criticizing us for having essentially too many articles. Is it really that bad of a "problem"? We only have a goal to keep people informed in the best way possible. While I would prefer to have only long and detailed articles, smaller, "stub" articles still accomplish the same goal. It's not like having small articles brings into question our credibility or causes anyone pain in any sort of way... —Anubis 10545 (talk) (Contribs) 07:59, March 28, 2010 (UTC)

no what im criticising is that you have pointless articles for something seen ONCE. and then reason the wiki is mocked is because you include books etc as canon, despite the fact that most people dont take them as canon. (and yea i know MGM or someone said they are canon, but no one really cares).

essentially all those articles do is take people to a page where they find information they would be able to find out in two words. and when i come on here and see that one person has added 5 new artilces on stupid little facts that they coudl write in 10 seconds. it really looks like they just want people to think they are big shots with large edit numbers.

argue all you want, they are pointless articles


 * Also, lets not forget to take note of the uselessness of this. So, we have about 15 or so "useless" articles out of over 5,000. Personally, it feels as though something as minor as that really isn't a massive problem that would make the entire fan-base of the show look at this site with utter disgust. And yea, we count books as cannon... but that's because they are declared as such. I respect your decision, and naturally, as a remedy to the situation, you can simply choose not to look at those articles if you find them distasteful. I don't mean to be rude, but naturally... there is likely not 1 thing in existence that everyone likes with unyielding love. —Anubis 10545 (talk) (Contribs) 08:15, March 28, 2010 (UTC)
 * if arugula isn't worthy of an article because it was mentioned only, shouldn't we delete a bunch of other ones as well such as Blades of Glory, Scotland, Winston Churchill, volkswagen?! theres plenty others in fact theres whole categories of mentioned-only characters..plus it would sound awkward to explain what an arugula is on the pages that mention it. 01:21, April 18, 2010 (UTC)
 * Ugh... I hate establishing precedents ;) . Well, some articles like Scotland were mentioned in more than one episode... which works toward their overall relevance. Articles like arugula were only mentioned briefly once and were never actually shown on the show (not that Scotland was shown per say). It would be crazy to try to get rid of all these so-called "useless" articles. The main reason I deleted Arugula was because it was only mentioned in comparison to another plant... and so info about arugula was therefore much better suited for that specific alien plant... in order to better describe it. Articles like Scotland and Blades of Glory more stand on their own... —Anubis 10545 (talk) (Contribs) 01:33, April 18, 2010 (UTC)
 * well, articles like the one on volkswagen are around the same notability level as arugula and thus should be deleted also going by that policy and linked to wikipedia. 01:35, April 18, 2010 (UTC)
 * I agree. It seems like that was probably created for humor... Volkswagens being where clowns are spilling out of... HA! If you want, you can compile a list of articles you think are worthless and I'll look over them. —Anubis 10545 (talk) (Contribs) 01:38, April 18, 2010 (UTC)
 * Something else though. If a specific topic was mentioned in a scene that was dedicated to that topic (such as how Jeopardy! was)... we should keep that article. Or, if said topic was mentioned several times throughout an episode or series. Only articles about things that are merely mentioned and in almost no way affect the flow of the show should be deleted... mainly. —Anubis 10545 (talk) (Contribs) 01:43, April 18, 2010 (UTC)

"HoNeY I'm HoMe!"
Hello. Just a quick message to let ye know im back workin on da stargate wikia.

Stargate Universe Deleted Scenes
Are we going to include the deleted scenes from the extended version of the pilot episodes? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JVRIPUCmR2s and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7fEgtnotCQ4&feature=related Stargate TL1 (talk) (Contribs) 18:19, April 21, 2010 (UTC)
 * We already have incorporated them into the articles. —Anubis 10545 (talk) (Contribs) 00:52, April 22, 2010 (UTC)

it took me a while to figure out the editing interface, How do you make the lines apear closer together, i dont know what i did.

when i hit enter for the next line there is always a gap in between
 * Press "Enter" less then... try to only leave 1 gap between lines. The more you press enter, the more lines that are created. —Anubis 10545 (talk) (Contribs) 04:10, April 26, 2010 (UTC)

Destiny's size
Hi... I have this BIG Comparison chart picture that has the sizes of most of the ships from known scifi shows and it had the aurora and the destiny on it...

here is the link |http://www.st-minutiae.com/misc/comparison i was just wanted to ask if i can put that size on this wikia...

i am going to put it, but just erase it and tell me if you think its not suppose to be there or something—Tau&#39;ri 21300 (talk) (Contribs) 11:33, April 28, 2010 (UTC)
 * we can't use unofficial fan measurements. also that site says that a hive isn't as long as an aurora which is kind of ridiculous 12:13, April 28, 2010 (UTC)

Image Policy
Im a new user here and I'd like to contribute at best but there are some issues I'd like to "hear" directly from admins than read in TOU.

I'd like to be briefed about the Image Policy...that means, there are some actor and characters wich do not have a picture of them and problably they exist and I'd like to be able to put them there without desrepectig privacy or any rights. Do I have to ask anyone or it's safe to upload the images?

I've read some links about SGCommand: Copyrights and the Image Copyright but I'd like to hear how you admin do.

Other question: There's any other way wich I can contact you directly for questions instead of the talk service?

Cheers. Sorry to bother ;D -Lateral (talk) (Contribs) 21:45, May 8, 2010 (UTC)
 * Feel free to upload any image from any episode of Stargate. As for outside images for actors, they should be public domain. If you have any more questions, feel free to contact me here... and welcome to Stargate Wiki! —Anubis 10545 (talk) (Contribs) 22:16, May 8, 2010 (UTC)

Vandalism
Is there any template or how to sign comment in summary as "reverting vandalism" Vilnisr (talk) (Contribs) 13:45, May 9, 2010 (UTC)
 * and is there a "Violation list" on Stargate wiki like on wowwiki [] - 16:11, May 9, 2010 (UTC)
 * You can just type "reverting vandalism" in the summary section... and there isn't a "violation list". If there is a problem user, just tell an administrator about it. —Anubis 10545 (talk) (Contribs) 17:53, May 9, 2010 (UTC)

do you know where i can find decent sized 'Stargate Official Magazine' covers? im lookin for images that could be 250px Stargate TL1 (talk) (Contribs) 18:32, May 9, 2010 (UTC)

 * okily dokily --Stargate TL1 (talk) (Contribs) 18:40, May 9, 2010 (UTC)

Leaked episodes
Is it ok to post the plot for the leaked episodes, or do you have to wait for the official airing? —Supakillaii (talk) (Contribs) 20:40, May 10, 2010 (UTC)
 * That would be fine. WOOT! Gateworld ain't got nothing on THIS!!!!! lol —Anubis 10545 (talk) (Contribs) 01:27, May 11, 2010 (UTC)
 * If I had the patience to try to hear the faded English audio over the main dub track I'd do the rest. As it is I can only gleam a rough summary from the bits of dialogue that come through. — Trust not the Penguin (T | C) 01:53, May 11, 2010 (UTC)
 * you wrote all that from listening to leftover audio on a dubbed version thats impressive 04:10, May 11, 2010 (UTC)
 * ... It looks like "this user actually wrote it. Still though... —Anubis 10545 (talk) (Contribs) 04:14, May 11, 2010 (UTC)
 * You beat me to it. Yeah, it wasn't me who wrote the "Pain" summary. Mine would have missed a few details, though the gist of it was pretty clear. Not so much for 18-20. I can tell there's a lot of little things in the dialogue that I'm missing. — Trust not the Penguin (T | C) 04:16, May 11, 2010 (UTC)
 * Also, we should not expand articles including info from yet to be aired in US episodes. Just because someone would be pleased to run into spoilers of 4 episodes ahead --Глючарина (talk) (Contribs) 12:04, May 11, 2010 (UTC)
 * Indeed. —Supakillaii (talk) (Contribs) 13:33, September 13, 2010 (UTC)

image
it is from quarantine, forgot to catergorise it, but its fixed now

Re: The official Magazine
no problem.... ill do that in a minute :)
 * Well I already took care of it... just when you upload them in the future... —Anubis 10545 (talk) (Contribs) 18:54, May 14, 2010 (UTC)

magazine template
as ye know, im just addin some images to the magazine section. do you think a template would be a good idea, so you could move between issues more easily? similar to this one.... Template:Universe-1. Stargate TL1 (talk) (Contribs) 20:27, May 14, 2010 (UTC)
 * Um, it's not necessarily a bad idea... it's just that we'd have to add it to 90 articles... and the magazine pages are relatively low-traffic so I'm not sure if it would be an entirely necessary/fruitful effort. Easy navigation can aready be achieved through the Category page... —Anubis 10545 (talk) (Contribs) 20:36, May 14, 2010 (UTC)

fair enough... i just wanted to bounce da idea off someone :) Stargate TL1 (talk) (Contribs) 20:43, May 14, 2010 (UTC)
 * Thanks for adding those images by the way... —Anubis 10545 (talk) (Contribs) 20:46, May 14, 2010 (UTC)

no probs... it has been annoyin me for a while Stargate TL1 (talk) (Contribs) 21:05, May 14, 2010 (UTC)

confussed???
in the Official Magazine catagory [] why is issue 32 showing up as The Official Magazine 32 instead of Stargate SG-1/Atlantis/SG:U: The Official Magazine 32?

issue 35
i was just thinking that also. But the image came from a decent webpage..... http://decomicshop.nl/stargate-magazine-p-24055.html Stargate TL1 (talk) (Contribs) 22:47, May 14, 2010 (UTC)

months throughout the wikia
iv noticed nearly all da episodes, magazines and novel pages have the month highlighted in red (no link). Is the reason we have the month as a future possible link? i just dont see the purpose? Also my friend screwed around with da format of the magazine pages the other day, when they were suppose to be helpin me out. i think they've all been fixed now, but i appologise for any screw ups.

i like the new logo also... more eye catching.... who designed it? Stargate TL1 (talk) (Contribs) 19:40, May 18, 2010 (UTC)


 * Enigmaxs designed the new logo. I don't know why we have month redlink articles, even worse are specific dates like January 12. They seem unnecessary to me, but for some reason they are kept. - 22:52, May 17, 2010 (UTC)

image catagory
im going to catagories the images iv uploaded over the last couple of days, which include official magazine and short story pics. speakin of official magazine, iv just got me hands on the Official Stargate Movie Magazine (1994)... after 12 months of searching my stargate magazine collection is now complete :) Stargate TL1 (talk) (Contribs) 22:07, May 20, 2010 (UTC)

Ive noticed the user colonelsam has been making a lot of edits that include speculative information based on no fact and a lot of basic grammar mistakes and apparently he/she has been told in the past to stop this.--Escyos (talk) (Contribs) 12:44, May 22, 2010 (UTC)

oh and colonelsam has also created these pages which need removing as they are entirely made up and as such do not belong here: --Escyos (talk) (Contribs) 13:04, May 22, 2010 (UTC)

 * We'll let him keep them... they're only fanfiction subpages of his userpage and we agreed long ago that he could keep a few after he had originally created like 30. —Anubis 10545 (talk) (Contribs) 18:14, May 22, 2010 (UTC)

communications stones and time travel
its a bit random but i wz wonderin last night... if they'll do a time travel/alternative reality episode using the 'ancient communication stones'? it could make for an interestin story if done in the right way?... for example, communicating with da ancients dat built the ship in thre past... finding out some secret about the ship or somethin Stargate TL1 (talk) (Contribs) 10:46, May 23, 2010 (UTC)
 * Just curious, how could they use the Comm Stones to travel in time/dimensions? —Supakillaii (talk) (Contribs) 11:56, May 23, 2010 (UTC)


 * i dont know, its stargate... they could make an elephant hang on piece of sewing cotton if they wanted Stargate TL1 (talk) (Contribs) 16:23, May 23, 2010 (UTC)
 * Apparently, they still need to communicate, so unless there is stable time portal they won't --Глючарина (talk) (Contribs) 16:46, May 23, 2010 (UTC)

That would be pretty cool tho, having an episode with Ancients in it. I guess they could find some sort of device that did that on the ship... use the stargate somehow, or maybe pass through some sort of spacial anomaly and have it affect the communication stones in some way... —Anubis 10545 (talk) (Contribs) 17:05, May 23, 2010 (UTC)
 * Don't forget that Stargates can be time portals. I mean, presumably with the right techology and power you wouldn't even need a solar flare. Sman789 (talk) (Contribs) 17:55, May 23, 2010 (UTC)

making text while
how do you make the text white in tables? the background is a greyish blue. im improving the timeline table colour scheme, to suit the wikia colour colour scheme Stargate TL1 (talk) (Contribs) 16:56, May 23, 2010 (UTC)
 *  Put Text Here!!!  —Anubis 10545 (talk) (Contribs) 17:04, May 23, 2010 (UTC)
 * Although if it's for tables, you may want to consult the charts here and insert the proper code where appropriate... —Anubis 10545 (talk) (Contribs) 17:08, May 23, 2010 (UTC)


 * thankyou. i know its a small thing, but wot do ye think of da improved colour scheme?..... http://stargate.wikia.com/wiki/Before_19th_Century Stargate TL1 (talk) (Contribs) 18:00, May 23, 2010 (UTC)

Stargate: Dynamite Comics
do you know if Stargate 0 has been released by Dynamite Comics? iv looked on ebay and amazon ect ect.... i cannot find it anywhere?!?!? da website says it was scheduled to be released in October 2009, but Dynamite Comics never keep to release schedules. im just hopin i av'nt missed this comic.

Stargate TL1 (talk) (Contribs) 20:01, May 31, 2010 (UTC)
 * I don't know... I don't really follow the Stargate literature and things like that. —Anubis 10545 (talk) (Contribs) 20:32, May 31, 2010 (UTC)

well if 'Stargate Vala Mal Doran' is anythin to go by... i would'nt be followin the comics either. although the novels are generally pritty good, so i cant complain there. thanks for your reply Stargate TL1 (talk) (Contribs) 21:06, May 31, 2010 (UTC)

Stargate Infinity Screen Captures
when adding Stargate Infinity screen captures for an episode/page... what is the maximum amount you would recommend? i know some people dont want Stargate Infinity on this wikia... but i wanna polish these episode pages so they are complete as possible Stargate TL1 (talk) (Contribs) 21:24, June 1, 2010 (UTC)

p.s; these images would be under a section called screen captures on each episodes page, which would be at the bottom.
 * Just try to focus on key scenes i guess... But mainly use your judgment. There really isn't a limit on how many images per gallery, but try not to do anything crazy like having upwards of 20 or so images. Oh, and title the section "Gallery" and use the tags for it. —Anubis 10545 (talk) (Contribs) 21:36, June 1, 2010 (UTC)

ok, thankyou for your reply :)

Just a quick Q. Is this page that nessecary. http://stargate.wikia.com/wiki/Female_Tau%27ri_airmen the actress had no lines and we do not know who played her Escyos (talk) (Contribs) 07:00, June 3, 2010 (UTC)

practice page
do you mind if i create a practice page? i wanna get some practice at using certain types of code, without screwin up pages and having people moan at me. Once iv finished playin around with some code on this practice page, we can delete it. Stargate TL1 (talk) (Contribs) 23:55, June 4, 2010 (UTC)
 * Well, you could just use the Sandbox. You can do whatever you want to that page... playing around is what it's for. —Anubis 10545 (talk) (Contribs) 23:59, June 4, 2010 (UTC)
 * Or you could create a subpage. Something along the lines of "User:Stargate TL1/Practice"... that'd be fine too. —Anubis 10545 (talk) (Contribs) 00:00, June 5, 2010 (UTC)


 * thankyou ill do that in the mornin. iv added the missing comic books and audiobooks to the wikia.... ill add pictures and Category to the pictures tomorrow. Also, thankyou for adding the picture catagories to the magazine pictures for me Stargate TL1 (talk) (Contribs) 00:41, June 5, 2010 (UTC)

Latest dream
Ha ha, definitely epic fail. :) -- Matthew R Dunn (talk) (Contribs) 23:32, June 6, 2010 (UTC)

304 image gallery
i noticed that there are at least 5 images in the gallery on the 304 page, which appear to be fan images. should they not be there? --Escyos (talk) (Contribs) 18:31, June 7, 2010 (UTC)
 * If you're referring to the images under the "References" heading, three of them are official concept art images as found under "special Features" on the first disc of Stargate Atlantis: The Complete Second Season. The other image is from the official MGM tech journal, and thus all images are indeed official and not one of them is fan-created. Not one image in that entire article is fan-created and therefore all images are suited to be there. —Anubis 10545 (talk) (Contribs) 20:21, June 7, 2010 (UTC)

"You know actual people named (for instance) Sora or Destiny and immediately think of Stargate upon seeing them. "

...you know someone named 'Destiny'? are they are stripper?...... (i should really be studying...)--Escyos (talk) (Contribs) 00:48, June 18, 2010 (UTC)
 * Hahahahaha... wow. She's definitely not a stripper. lol. At least I don't know anyone named "Malp"... that would just be creepy —Anubis 10545 (talk) (Contribs) 01:10, June 18, 2010 (UTC)


 * i know a guy called Malp!!!!!....his last name is probe :D --Escyos (talk) (Contribs) 01:29, June 18, 2010 (UTC)

Workout room AKA Destiny Gym
Im not sure that the redirect works here, it was called the workout room in "Pain' and in the JM's blog blueprint i saw (unless i dreamed that part) and its not really been said that the room itself was set aside by the ancients for working out, just by the expedition members.

Also the botany lab and the plant room are different rooms as seen on the script blueprints i have uploaded Escyos (talk) (Contribs) 11:33, July 14, 2010 (UTC)
 * My bad. I don't follow his blog or a lot of the behind the scenes stuff. So in the future if you could cite on an article where it's title originates, it would be easier to differentiate between fan-made names and real ones. Thanks —Anubis 10545 (talk) (Contribs) 17:54, July 14, 2010 (UTC)

Redirect links
Could you possibly change the links to Rodney McKay to Meredith Rodney McKay on your user page and on the Samantha Carter page. I took all day changing all those links, maybe we can remove the Rodney McKay redirect...if people did things right around here. Thanks in advance. Also you have a Tau'ri link which should be Tau'ri And a DHD link that can become a "Dial home device|DHD" and a "Garage door opener|GDO" link(s) on the samantha carter page --Escyos (talk) (Contribs) 07:49, July 18, 2010 (UTC)
 * Redirects aren't really a "bad" thing. I mean, if someone were to type in "Rodney Mckay" in the search menu, it should link to the "Meredith Rodney Mckay" page as he goes by both names. So, redirect pages shouldn't be deleted. And (not to negate your work over the past few days) it's not really a "problem" to have redirects... tho it does look a nicer without them being all over the place. —Anubis 10545 (talk) (Contribs) 19:27, July 18, 2010 (UTC)


 * exactely! question: sockpuppeting is not allowed, but i can see the User:Lo10, User:Sam10 and User:Colonelsam are the person and all three accounts appear to be somewhat active, and i know he has been warned in the past. --Escyos (talk) (Contribs) 12:28, July 20, 2010 (UTC)
 * Yea, sockpuppeting isn't allowed and we've repeatedly blocked all his accounts. He might have one or so still active, but he hasn't really been causing a problem lately. —Anubis 10545 (talk) (Contribs) 20:59, July 20, 2010 (UTC)


 * i see his edits as problems. we is obviously using a translator to change his swedish edits on his wiki and the sentences dont make sense and have to be re-written. speaking of his wiki, its obvious he is making the edits on here to validate his own wiki. i know thats not a reason to ban him but for some reason he just annoys me.....might be the lack of sleep. --Escyos (talk) (Contribs) 16:21, July 30, 2010 (UTC)

Prius
could you maybe lock the Prius page or add a warning etc, there are users adding pointless infomation on that page and they keep undoing the edits and they dont seem to to get that the information isnt nessecary.Escyos (talk) (Contribs) 02:29, August 2, 2010 (UTC)

someone said you were 14, is that true?Escyos (talk) (Contribs) 06:53, August 2, 2010 (UTC)

Spammer
may i suggest banning the following user:Lxw840611. He is obvious a spammer, you can see his handywork, , etc Escyos (talk) (Contribs) 07:38, August 5, 2010 (UTC)

It's from Citizen Joe. Is it appearing for you? I'm having problems viewing some images and I haven't been able to see this one since I uploaded it. Lowriders95s10 (talk) (Contribs) 20:41, August 7, 2010 (UTC)
 * Lately images haven't been appearing for me either on some occasions. It's likely just an issue with wiki's servers... and I got a message that they're making some changes... so that's probably what's affecting the images. —Anubis 10545 (talk) (Contribs) 21:01, August 7, 2010 (UTC)

two things: 1. is is just me or is this wiki slowing right down when loading lately? 2. could you lock the wraith beaming device page as the rogue penguin user keeps reverting my edits to say that a speculated function is actually a true function of the machine. i thought this want a place for speculations.

Destiny expedition
once again i am complaining about that penguin, the destiny expedition page, he keeps removing the off world missions part when i believe that its a good summary of the first season, as there havent been many missions yet, its good to keep it there. yes i know that no other pages have it but like i said its a good summary that lets people know what happens quickly instead of reading bulks of words. Escyos (talk) (Contribs) 03:55, August 18, 2010 (UTC)
 * I have given my thoughts on the Talk page of the Destiny Expedition article. Your opinion has merit, as does Rouge Penguins. Just because he has a different idea doesn't make him/her "wrong". We're all just trying to make this website a better place. So... hurtful comments aimed at any user are greatly discouraged and prolonged disputes will lead to the banning of one or both of the parties involved. Ultimately the final decision of what goes on in articles is up to the administration here... so I don't mean to sound as though I'm "picking sides". —Anubis 10545 (talk) (Contribs) 04:48, August 18, 2010 (UTC)
 * Since the worthless edit war by two children has caused you to lock the page could you add Vince Kwan to the Destiny expedition list. He needs to go in the former members and settlers and loses sections. Thanks Lowriders95s10 (talk) (Contribs) 06:21, August 20, 2010 (UTC)

Images
due to the fact i refuse to speak to the f***ing penguin, i removed some fan made images from both the iris and dhd pages, because we dont use fan made images on this site, it mentioned the main page images but thats just because no such image exists anywhere else. Escyos (talk) (Contribs) 08:02, August 21, 2010 (UTC)


 * The images in Point of origin, the main image of Stargate address, and every single image on Glyph. All fan-made renders using the gate images as a source or a basic, fan-made diagram for the middle one. — Trust not the Penguin (T | C) 08:04, August 21, 2010 (UTC)

speaking to you Anubis - yes those images come from an unknown source, but we have no canon sources for those things, and the main page images dont count, they arent in any articles. i use the city of atlantis for my map of the city, which is not canon, and by the penguins logic i can upload images on here. Escyos (talk) (Contribs) 08:09, August 21, 2010 (UTC)

I feel this post made on another wiki merits mention. This kind of spiteful behavior is just childish. — Trust not the Penguin (T | C) 08:17, August 21, 2010 (UTC)

you know what, im done, im not going to put up with this shit. im gone. Escyos (talk) (Contribs) 08:19, August 21, 2010 (UTC)
 * Fan-created diagram images aren't so much a problem as are images created using 3-D imaging/modeling programs. We have user-created Stargate Diagrams on the Glyph article because such accurate images could never be provided via screen capture... However, an over-abundance of such images for far less-useful purposes would not be permitted... and on the iris article it would seem having such an image serves little purpose... —Anubis 10545 (talk) (Contribs) 17:33, August 21, 2010 (UTC)


 * Fair enough. The iris one is somewhat redundant. Could at least restore the old DHD image that was replaced with the render, though. That one came from RDA's website according to the image data. — Trust not the Penguin (T | C) 17:38, August 21, 2010 (UTC)

Fanon
Hey Anubis are you interested in Stargate Fanon ? Kaeleth (talk) (Contribs) 06:08, September 3, 2010 (UTC)
 * Eh, Not really... although I guess my dreams section on my userpage are sort of like fannon. And yea, Halo is pretty great... only 12 more days till Reach :) —Anubis 10545 (talk) (Contribs) 06:36, September 3, 2010 (UTC)

Thanks. Im sorry about the Ginn page. I was adding a pic when I accidently did somthing to the info box. I tried to fix it but couldn't figure out what I did wrong... Any way thanks again and I am SO sorry it will never happen again.CourtneyFANno.1 22:55, September 9, 2010 (UTC)
 * Don't worry about it :) ... but next time you have trouble with an edit feel free to ask and I'll be glad to help. —Anubis 10545 (talk) (Contribs) 23:08, September 9, 2010 (UTC)

Deleted Music Page
Could you please point me to the listing of music already on the Wiki? - I spent an hour looking for it today, then 2 hours compiling a list... you spent 2 seconds deleting it, without even a message to my talk page. KevinP (talk) (Contribs) 18:42, September 11, 2010 (UTC)
 * We don't have a listing of music, per se, on this wiki largely because a page with such a purpose would seem to serve little purpose. We have a category of Soundtracks, but that only includes music created specifically for the show that has been released officially. In Stargate Universe, they tend to play more modern music that is not exclusive to the show and the appearance of such music is documented on the article for the episode in which it appeared. An entirely separate article listing every song that has ever appeared in Stargate, based on my experience, seems impractical and unnecessary as, from a realistic standpoint, if someone wanted to know what the song was in the episode they were watching, they would be more likely to go to the episode's article instead of scrolling through a list. —Anubis 10545 (talk) (Contribs) 18:51, September 11, 2010 (UTC)
 * Here is an alternate opinion.... Reading through 20 separate articles to obtain a list of all music in a season is a waste of time and effort for a casual internet google searcher. It was a waste of time for me.... I wanted to know... so I could pseudo create an SGU 'album' for myself... I thought it would be nice to share. I thought this was a nice place to share the compilation of information. There are reasons other than 'what was that song' someone might want this information... so in my opinion, it should be presented in a form not limited to access on a 'per episode' basis. KevinP (talk) (Contribs) 18:57, September 11, 2010 (UTC)
 * This wiki is a place to share information - relevant information in a format that does not contradict our policies. But, you bring up a good point. Here's what we can do for now: I'll create a subpage for you titled: User:KevinP/Music. On that page, you can work on your list and, when you finish it, I'll decide (based on the relevance of information presented in it) if it should be incorporated into the main namespace. (This is largely how "work in progress" articles should be done). —Anubis 10545 (talk) (Contribs) 19:06, September 11, 2010 (UTC)
 * Thanks. KevinP (talk) (Contribs) 19:08, September 11, 2010 (UTC)
 * The page is pretty much up to the level of detail I was looking for now. Please take a look when you get a chance.  If it's not acceptable in whole, or in part for use in the wiki at large, let me know and I will archive my work and take down the page here. - Thanks KevinP (talk) (Contribs) 20:49, September 11, 2010 (UTC)

Technological periods
Hey Anubis. Recently I have started a small personal project of creating categories for all the technological periods. However while the periods generally work well all the way to Information Age, after that they... don't. For instance Hebridian is "Advanced", but Aschen Prime is in "Cybernetic Age" even though from what we know they are on about the same level. (I know the bio-weapon was uber.) Then there are Earth and Orilla who were "Extremely Advanced". Now while these may be sufficient, I would propose a more practical scale. "Interstellar Age" and "Intergalactic Age". So far all races who are "Extremely Advanced" are also in "Intergalactic Age" and "Advanced" are in "Interstellar Age". Now while Hebridan may lack hyperdrives, interstellar travel is still common place, so "Interstellar Age" would apply. Advanced and Extremely Advanced don't really mean anything, Cybernetic Age even less. Iron Age, Space Age, Nuclear Age and Information Age are all named by the most important technological achievement of their time, so logically advanced and extremely advanced have no place here. Thoughts? --Uriel718 (talk) (Contribs) 18:13, September 13, 2010 (UTC)
 * Me again. One more argument. The Ancients would never call the Goa'uld advanced and themselves extremely advanced. Just as we don't call the Space Age advanced and ourselves extremely advanced or the Space Age call the Nuclear Age advanced and so on.--Uriel718 (talk) (Contribs) 18:20, September 13, 2010 (UTC)
 * Might want to cap off at "Interstellar" and "Intergalactic" if you're going to categorize them. — Trust not the Penguin (T | C) 18:35, September 13, 2010 (UTC)
 * Hm... actually this method of categorization seems...unnecessary... and possibly misleading. I mean, it is the race inhabiting the planet, not the planet itself, that has reached each respective period of advancement. Furthermore, pn Earth, we have asgard weapons, advanced tech, etc.... but to the general public we are believed to be far less advanced. Also, there are tribes around the world that still run around in loin cloths... and are quite primitive. The naming of these categories is open to debate and bias, and so it would be best to just not have them. Even if we were to merely have the categories "advanced" and "primitive", keep in mind that the Tau'ri were considered primitive for the Goa'uld even after we had constructed Prometheus. So, these terms are naturally relative and so it would be difficult to use them accurately for the sake of categorization.... it would seem. —Anubis 10545 (talk) (Contribs) 23:30, September 14, 2010 (UTC)

Maek IX Nuculear Bomb
Why did you delite over half of the pictures i uploaded? Fair Enoght i got pictures from Youtube of the Eps so yeah thats why qualty was bad... well anyway Ty for replying...
 * They were all small, blurry, and really showed nothing of significance. I Kept a few that showed the controls of the device and such, but most of them were low quality, very similar to each other. Also, 10+ images in a gallery seems a bit excessive given that particular article. —Anubis 10545 (talk) (Contribs) 05:25, September 16, 2010 (UTC)

ColonelSam sock
User:CarterSam...sure sounds like Colonelsam and the edits sure look aliek

Famrir
Whenever you get the chance, a couple of IP editors are dead-set on denying that Famrir was an Asgard, and they're not going to drop it as far as I can tell. A lock would be nice. — Trust not the Penguin (T | C) 04:02, September 22, 2010 (UTC)

Famrir
Why has this page been protected. It has inaccurate information and should be fixed. The alien depicted in the original Stargate movie is NOT an Asgard. They don't even look the same. As stated on Stargate_canon "...the evidence on screen will always take precedence." It is clear to anyone that has seen the movie and watched the show that he alien that was host to Ra is NOT an Asgard. Please fix this. RPG information should not be ANYWHERE on this site as it is not official in the Stargate universe. Jimv1983 (talk) (Contribs) 04:26, September 22, 2010 (UTC)
 * It is the policy of this cite to accept most licensed material as canon, and that includes games, books, and RPGs. Naturally, there are discrepancies between the movie and the series (the stargate itself in the movie is quite different in appearance than in the show, but it is still a stargate... just as Famrir may not look "entirely" Asgard, but is still one). —Anubis 10545 (talk) (Contribs) 04:32, September 22, 2010 (UTC)
