I am currently looking for able artists who are willing to make art based on Guild Wars characters. I am willing to pay with in game gold, items or services. For more information please contact me in game. (IGN: Jessica Keldark)  

Build archiving
Seeing as the builds section wipe will be going off tomorrow, is it a problem if I archive one of my own builds by simply moving the page to my userspace (and removing category links and all that)? I really don't see a need to keep the original build page there, having it missing from the wiki the day before it gets wiped doesn't seem like a problem. And I'd like to keep the original history of the page intact, and moving it seems to be the best way to do so. The build's A/any Critical Fox, in case you were wondering... having an answer before tomorrow would be preferable, if at all possible. -- Jioruji Derako.> 11:48, 30 April 2007 (CDT)


 * Be bold in editing &mdash; Skuld 12:15, 30 April 2007 (CDT)
 * Imho go ahead. I would only be conserned if the build was one of the most popular ones in the game. I'll probably save a couple of builds to my user name space in the same manner too, but I've got the admin tools so I can undelete them after the wipe so that I can then move them. --[[Image:Gem-icon-sm.png]] (gem / talk) 12:21, 30 April 2007 (CDT)


 * Hehe, WP:BOLD is something I'll have to keep in mind more... I think I worry too much about being reckless, though.
 * Anyway, I didn't think there would be a problem, but I always like to check. I'll probably move the page over a little later. First off, I'm busy trying to figure out how to use a Show/Hide box on another wiki... I can't tell what I'm doing wrong, but I think I know what I'm doing. Should keep me busy for the rest of the day.
 * A quick question on that subject; I was trying to figure out how to make a Show/Hide box be hidden by default, but I couldn't get anything... what I stumbled upon was that having more then one Show/Hide box seemed to make a difference. Is there any other way to set this default? --[[image:GEO-logo.png]] Jioruji Derako.> 12:33, 30 April 2007 (CDT)
 * No clue. --[[Image:Gem-icon-sm.png]] (gem / talk) 12:34, 30 April 2007 (CDT)


 * Ah well. Makes no difference to me anyway, at this point; I thought it might be good to check, and I copy+pasted your "useful links" coding over to my userpage on the other Wiki, just to see if it worked (figured pasting code that I knew worked would be the best way to check). A quick press of "Show Preview" proved that, apparently, they use an older version of MetaWiki, because it didn't work... --[[image:GEO-logo.png]] Jioruji Derako.> 12:38, 30 April 2007 (CDT)


 * Back to the original subject, I need to delete my original backup to make room for the the original page. I added a delete tag, I'll be able to move the page over once that's deleted. --[[image:GEO-logo.png]] Jioruji Derako.> 12:45, 30 April 2007 (CDT)
 * Deleted. --[[Image:Gem-icon-sm.png]] (gem / talk) 13:10, 30 April 2007 (CDT)


 * Thanks a bunch. I've got it all copied over now. (and I was able to archive the talk page in the process, it was getting long.) --[[image:GEO-logo.png]] Jioruji Derako.> 16:58, 30 April 2007 (CDT)


 * Sorry I didn't see this until now, but no, simply moving a build is not a good idea for a ton of reasons. Firstly, though, the point of the wipe is to remove all the builds; if 90% of builds were moved out of the Builds: namespace, what would the point of the wipe be? Secondly, we haven't allowed anybody to move builds so far (including authors), so saying "sure it's okay" at this point would be hypocritical. You can steal the build from someone's archive, Jioruji, but the original is going back to the Build: namespace. -Auron [[Image:Elit Druin.jpg|19px||My Talk]] 04:16, 1 May 2007 (CDT)

Auron, but that's what happened. A lot of people loved the Wiki for the builds, and now each build has 2 or 3 copies in various User namespaces. IMHO it has made a bigger mess... With or without history is not a big difference. &mdash; Poki#3, 08:52, 1 May 2007 (CDT)


 * I can understand your point, Auron, but realize that my archiving the build page is not just a way to "dodge" the build wipe here. Either way, I'm allowed to save the build to my userspace, correct? By moving this build, as far as I can see, I just save trouble; I don't have to completely re-write the build article in my userspace, I don't need to copy and paste the entire history for crediting purposes, and the redirect page that's created when I move it is wiped as normal. If the userspace copy I've moved is that big of a deal, then it can be deleted; but on that note, seeing as I plan to save this particular build either way, I would just re-create the same exact page in my userspace. The only thing deleting would do is give more work, both for the person who deletes it, and for myself, who would need to re-make the whole page.
 * Was their a particular reason that I missed that makes moving such a bad idea, as opposed to re-writing entirely? I'm not trying to argue here, I just want to straighten out this point. --[[image:GEO-logo.png]] Jioruji Derako.> 12:59, 1 May 2007 (CDT)


 * If there's any way this could get cleared up before the wipe, that would be just awesome. Keeping the original build history would be a great boon, for me. --[[image:GEO-logo.png]] Jioruji Derako.> 13:51, 1 May 2007 (CDT)


 * If you move a build before the wipe, our pre-wipe backup will lack that build. It's not a good thing. &mdash;Tanaric 13:56, 1 May 2007 (CDT)


 * Then do I have any other options to preserve the history just as it is? Moving seems to be the simplest way to do this, but as you say, that would affect the wipe process itself. The build has a full copy on PvXwiki as well, with history intact; can the method they used to copy it be used in reverse? And is it an easy method? --[[image:GEO-logo.png]] Jioruji Derako.> 14:01, 1 May 2007 (CDT)


 * Just to note, I have a working backup at the moment, so there's no big hurry here. Either way, if there's a way to copy a page's history, I'd like to know it. --[[image:GEO-logo.png]] Jioruji Derako.> 14:12, 1 May 2007 (CDT)


 * The only way to import with history is to do so from a database dump. Such dumps are available from my user page – however, to import them into a wiki, you require sysop access. I'm aware of no method to copy an article on a wiki complete with contribution history. &mdash;Tanaric 14:27, 1 May 2007 (CDT)

My userpage =O!
Hi Gem xD, I have used and credited your javascript boxes at the bottom of my userpage, but theres something wrong with the code that makes the bottom boxes look fatsojmbo >.>, could you help? (t-c) 14:38, 1 May 2007 (CDT) Nevermind, Ive found the problem, thanks anyways. (t-c) 15:33, 2 May 2007 (CDT)


 * Once again, Gem fixes a problem without ever even doing anything. I would do anything for your abilities, Gem... --[[image:GEO-logo.png]] Jioruji Derako.> 15:59, 2 May 2007 (CDT)


 * Well, I opened the problem page, made a small edit to the code, didn't figure out the problem immediately, logged into GW for 'a while' and forgot about it. :D --[[Image:Gem-icon-sm.png]] (gem / talk) 16:01, 2 May 2007 (CDT)


 * Aha! That's your secret! You log into GW for "a while", and things magically start getting fixed. That would explain why my problems remain unresolved... I haven't been playing GW much lately. --[[image:GEO-logo.png]] Jioruji Derako.> 16:04, 2 May 2007 (CDT)


 * Yeah, alt-tabbing from the wiki to GW really often solves all problems. I can't explain it, but it must have something to do with something... something... I dont know. ;) --[[Image:Gem-icon-sm.png]] (gem / talk) 16:10, 2 May 2007 (CDT)

Fun talk missing :(
I just archived all the April stuff and realised that I only had very little fun talk and non-business stuff on my talk page, and compared to the good old times the few fun topics were pretty lame. Where has all the fun gone? Where are the good old chats with Xas and the other nice guys? I noticed that the drop of fun stuff happened roughly at the same time as I got promoted to a sysop. Is that the reason? If so, I really need to think about it more... -- (gem / talk) 19:42, 2 May 2007 (CDT)
 * It's just that Adminstend to get more formal talk since there "almighty" like and people look up to them ;] Want some fun talk? Let's talk about GuildWiki humor ;]
 * It's nice that you used my skillbox for "Coming Through!", but you really should find some icon ;] &mdash; Poki#3 [[Image:Poki.jpg|19px|My Talk Page :o]], 20:05, 2 May 2007 (CDT)
 * Yeah, I've been neglecting that one for a while now. I'll look for one pretty soon. --[[Image:Gem-icon-sm.png]] (gem / talk) 01:50, 3 May 2007 (CDT)
 * Hmm, I should probably try to advert User:Gem/Fun more. It's been pretty dead for some time. --[[Image:Gem-icon-sm.png]] (gem / talk) 01:50, 3 May 2007 (CDT)
 * I know what happened to all the fun. It was eaten up by the copyright monster.  (©¿©) --[[Image:VallenIconwhitesmall.JPG]]  Vallen Frostweaver  09:39, 3 May 2007 (CDT)
 * Good one! XD And about the icon. May i suggest Rollerbeetle Dash? ;] &mdash; Poki#3 [[Image:Poki.jpg|19px|My Talk Page :o]], 09:53, 3 May 2007 (CDT)
 * Nice. :D --[[Image:VallenIconwhitesmall.JPG]]  Vallen Frostweaver  09:55, 3 May 2007 (CDT)
 * Sorry I haven't dropped in much lately, I actually intended to catch up with you here but just after I posted that work got crazy busy again. It's been a mad house at work, has been for the last few months due to a personel shuffle and me moving up but a few weeks ago one of the guys in our little team was diagnosed with cancer and hasn't been at work. Pretty scary really, he's only a couple of years older than me.


 * So things haven't been all that great for me, I really haven't done much editing on the wiki for a while now and it's kind of just taken a backseat for me. I used to have heaps of time at work to wiki edit but not anymore, I actually still get on quite a fair bit but only to check for vandalism, almost no actual editing. Strangely enough I've actually been playing the game as much as ever although I'm not entirely happy with my current guild, leaving my old guild behind as well as the stresses of the leadership position was nice for a while but unfortunately I'd now like to have a bit more say in the direction of my current guild ~_~ Catch 22 I guess.


 * I wasted a whole lot of money earlier this year buying a track car because I figured I'm too young to buy a house and not all of us are lucky enough to have a girlfriend they've been going out with for 21 months ;) Still the whole thing has just been a waste of money thus far which is disappointing. That said I'm hpoing thigs are looking up, I've been quietly thinking about travelling this year, I'm too young to be stuck in the career world, if I don't travel now I feel like I may never have a real chance to. So I'm hoping to quit my job, do a little bit of study then travel to England, probably basing myself in London, pick up some work there and travel Europe and beyond, how's Finland in Autumn!? ;) Heh this looks more like a blog post than a chat, I just hope you're still checking in so you see it. Catch ya round Gem, keep fighting the good fight mate, Xas --Xasxas256


 * Aaah, what a nice surprise to see a lengthy post from you Xas. *wide smile* I've noticed that you have also been less active in the wiki lately and guessed it must be real life hurry. I'm sure we'll both get better by the time summer arrives.
 * If you are going to travel to Europe, I can happily offer you a free place to stay in Finland as I actually have 4 places where I spend my nights (My place, Kalomelis place (both shared apartments with other studens), my parents' place and Kalomelis parents' place), so my room in the shared apartment is free to be used. If you would be coming to Finland in the autumn, I would suggest early autumn when it is still nice and sunny here. Late autumn is rainy, windy and gray.
 * I'm also planning to travel to a few places in Europe this year and the following years so we might also see around in other places too. ;) --[[Image:Gem-icon-sm.png]] (gem / talk) 08:14, 6 May 2007 (CDT)
 * You know what I might take you up on that mate, thanks heaps for the offer. I'm hoping to get down to a travel agent this week and ask them about Visas and the like, I think there's a working holidaymakers visa for the UK which sounds pretty good (if anyone is reading this and can give me a bit of knowledge that'd be appreciated!). Ok I better bolt, my folks are waiting for me, it's my birthday today and they've organised a dinner for me ;) --Xasxas256 02:09, 8 May 2007 (CDT)

Image copyright problem
Thank you for uploading the files listed below. GuildWiki takes copyright very seriously, and the images you have supplied are missing information on its copyright status. The images will be deleted after 7 days, unless the copyright status is determined for the license and the source of the images. Please review Image use policy and add a copyright tag to their image description page.

Thank you for your cooperation.

The following is a list of files that need attention: 84.13.251.42 07:03, 3 May 2007 (CDT)
 * Image:User Gem SW user box.jpg


 * I have replied on the image talk page. This image is fair use. --[[Image:Gem-icon-sm.png]] (gem / talk) 07:27, 3 May 2007 (CDT)
 * I just checked your contribs and I must say that although many of the tagged images might be correctly tagged, there are also ones that shouldn't have been tagged. I'm not going to go against you on the images of other users, but I have to say that I don't like your attitude. --[[Image:Gem-icon-sm.png]] (gem / talk) 07:28, 3 May 2007 (CDT)
 * The image is NOT fair use - fair use rationale does not include the prettification of your user page. Every image that I have tagged is tagged correctly. Copyright and licensing issues don't go away just because you don't like them, and Guild Wiki has not been elevated above the laws that apply to the rest of the world. As for your liking my attitude or not, I don't believe that those sort of comments are what is expected from a sys op. 84.13.251.42 07:56, 3 May 2007 (CDT)
 * What does my sysop status have to do with this? Nothing, so please don't even start with that.
 * As far as I have been able to draw conclusions from other wikis and websites, images can be used for these kinds of purposes under fair use. You could go close down half the internet if it wasn't so. --[[Image:Gem-icon-sm.png]] (gem / talk) 08:00, 3 May 2007 (CDT)
 * What the rest of "the internet" does - unlawfully - should not be of any concern to you nor anyone else here who wants to maintain standards and operate professionally. The comment about your sys op status follows this line of reaoning - I am merely carrying out necessary maintenance, as outlined in Image attribution project. Sys ops are colloquially referred to as "users with a mop and bucket" - rather than attempting to find get out clauses you should be constructively engaging with the project. 84.13.251.42 08:06, 3 May 2007 (CDT)
 * No, I don't have any bindings to help any single project in the wiki. I'm allowed to help, but I am not forced to. I am also allowed to have a different opinnion. Although I agree that images should be tagged properly, you shouldn't be just tagging a million images and putting generic templates on peoples user pages when there is nothing anywhere which would advice users on how to act. I'm not againts the project, I'm against the method that you use and your attitude. --[[Image:Gem-icon-sm.png]] (gem / talk) 08:11, 3 May 2007 (CDT)
 * Every time an image is uploaded a very large piece of text appears:DO NOT SUBMIT COPYRIGHTED WORK WITHOUT PERMISSION! By submitting, you promise that you wrote the edit yourself, or copied it from a public domain or similar free resource. That is pretty clear advice on how to act, I figure. 84.13.251.42 08:16, 3 May 2007 (CDT)
 * You just don't get it. When you start a wiki-wide campaign, start it by planning. Then create the necessary templates and other pages and make sure there is some place which explains all users, even those unaware of the situation, what is going on and how they should act. You did none of those three before starting to tag images. --[[Image:Gem-icon-sm.png]] (gem / talk) 08:21, 3 May 2007 (CDT)
 * And may I add, that the policy doesn't say anything about the tags yet? I don't think there needed at all. Well over 95% of the images are GW screenshots, and forcing people to find a licence for each image will just scare people off the wiki (like Wikipedia did to me), and that's not why it was made. The other images are mostly okay, and the single few that (potentially) violate copyright can me solved on talk pages :/ &mdash; Poki#3 [[Image:Poki.jpg|19px|My Talk Page :o]], 08:50, 3 May 2007 (CDT)
 * This has been discussed at User talk:84.13.251.42. --[[Image:Gem-icon-sm.png]] (gem / talk) 08:52, 3 May 2007 (CDT)
 * Then please just wake we up when this thing dies. &mdash; Poki#3 [[Image:Poki.jpg|19px|My Talk Page :o]], 08:57, 3 May 2007 (CDT)
 * Choosing whether to obey the pertinent laws and the conditions under which GuildWiki is licensed are not open for policy discussion or debate. They are the conditions agreed to from day 1 of operating the wiki. The wiki was not made to be a repository for unlicensed and/or copyrighted images either. Screenshots are fine - there is an agreement and conditions in place with ANet for these to be used. It is the usercruft that is the problem. As for "single few (potentially)".... I would estimate they run into several hundred, easily. An image cannot be "mostly okay" - it is free for use or it is not. I would enjoy watching you argue that case in a court of law. If you wish to ignore it, why bother commenting in the first place? 84.13.251.42 08:58, 3 May 2007 (CDT)
 * What the hell are you trying to tell me? I'm not 'choosing whether to obey the pertinent laws and the conditions under which GuildWiki is licensed'. I'm arguing against your method of enforcing this matter. Your method was crappy. Period. --[[Image:Gem-icon-sm.png]] (gem / talk) 09:00, 3 May 2007 (CDT)
 * The reply was to User:Poki. FYI I'm not interested in PoVs. 84.13.251.42 09:05, 3 May 2007 (CDT)
 * Sorry. :) --[[Image:Gem-icon-sm.png]] (gem / talk) 09:11, 3 May 2007 (CDT)
 * (reseting) Thank you Gem. That is the way to express how I feel :P. And Anon, I don't want to get involved much in this discussion, since I didn't study law, nor to I live in the US and have an idea about your law. I'm just trying to say, that tagging every single image is very much unnecessary. The have a clear license without any tag and the rest can be solved calmly and easily if we don't start to get ignorant. End of the discussion for me. &mdash; Poki#3 [[Image:Poki.jpg|19px|My Talk Page :o]], 09:20, 3 May 2007 (CDT)
 * What license?? Example, Image:LaRes.jpg Where is the license information?? The only information appertaining to that image is what the copyright holder says about it. And, FYI, this is what they say:

 * To me, that looks like "fair use" or however do you call it. He uses that picture for personal, non-commercial, non-profit use and isn't hurting anybody. He just expresses that he likes the show and as such, promotes the show! Why aren't you bashing Wikipedia for this image? It's the same character. &mdash; Poki#3 [[Image:Poki.jpg|19px|My Talk Page :o]], 10:33, 3 May 2007 (CDT)
 * Because it is irrelavent, probably. &mdash; Skuld 10:35, 3 May 2007 (CDT)
 * Because that one is tagged correctly, this one isn't. --[[Image:Gem-icon-sm.png]] (gem / talk) 11:58, 3 May 2007 (CDT)


 * Not quite, Gem. The image on Wikipedia is being used in a (more-or-less) scholarly context, to illustrate a character being discussed. It is only linked from the Eric Cartman article. That's fair use, and that's what the fair use mentality protects -- using a copyrighted image for identification in relevant works. Fair use is designed to make it impossible to prevent people from talking about your product.


 * Even on Wikipedia, if a user included that Cartman image on his own userpage, it would be removed. While it's fair use in the Eric Cartman article, it's not fair use on a user page. Here, because we document Guild Wars and Eric Cartman is never relevant, we'll delete the image straight-off.


 * If you want to blame anybody for this, blame me, but blame me only for not making this an issue from the very beginning. As the anon has correctly pointed out, we've been considerably lax in our compliance with copyright law, and I started the image attribution project to address this.


 * &mdash;Tanaric 09:13, 4 May 2007 (CDT)


 * I'm not blaiming anyone for this issue being taken care of, I'm blaming the anon for going on rampage without a plan and the necessary templates and articles.
 * "Fair use is designed to make it impossible to prevent people from talking about your product." Exactly. A user box stating my views of Eric Cartman would be commenting the copyrighted material which is allowed fair use for an image of him. --[[Image:Gem-icon-sm.png]] (gem / talk) 09:33, 4 May 2007 (CDT)
 * You are perfectly entitled to feel that way, Gem, and in many ways justified. However, this approach has ensured that actions are being taken promptly and the situation is being viewed as a serious and pressing issue. A little disruption creating templates for 24 hours is, you must agree, a far better situation than attorneys arriving waving writs and injunctions. You may not thank me for this, but yoou should thank Tanaric who has expeditiously corrected the earlier oversight. 89.240.253.167 09:44, 4 May 2007 (CDT)
 * Additionally, there's no point in blaming our anonymous friend. He merely tagged some images with copyvio. I'm the one who decided he had a point, deleted the image, and began pushing for this via the image attribution project (and he has graciously shifted his efforts to coincide with my own, which I greatly appreciate). You can talk about Cartman (or Han Solo, or any of these characters) without the image. The image doesn't help your case. Wikipedia is attempting to document Cartman and Han Solo. It's a totally different playing field.


 * In any case, this really isn't an arguable point. In the end, this boils down to being my and LordBiro's responsibility, and I believe we're in agreement that we must be strict in cases where there's any ambiguity. That Wikipedia takes this same stance (and additionally prohibits the sort of imagery you're advocating) suggests that we're correct. As we're both not lawyers, that's the best we can do.

Don't go!
Hey, yeah there are a lot of people who do suck in GW now these days, but that's no reason to leave it. I've been scammed, harrassed, insulted by complete strangers on GW and I've not left. Don't leave just because of a few morons. If I had money, I'd get a run from you but I'm pretty much broke. You seem really cool on wiki, so give GW another chance. Morgan Fairweather 23:15, 5 May 2007 (CDT)
 * I'm not going anywhere like I've allready said. I'm just totally stressed and pissed off. And the reason aren't only GW and the wikis, it's mostly irl stress.
 * "If I had money, I'd get a run from you but I'm pretty much broke." I'm not serving customers at the moment. I only play for fun for the following weeks/months. --[[Image:Gem-icon-sm.png]] (gem / talk) 07:54, 6 May 2007 (CDT)

 * Thank you, that ment a lot to me. I hope that I'll feel a lot better after Monday 14th when all school work for this year is over.
 * Btw, I haven't been scammed since I put up RR 1.5 years ago as I always take money up front. What I meant with irritating customers was that I am totally bored and irritated by only getting requests for a few missions all the time. I hate doing the desert missions, THK and Ruins of Morha every day. --[[Image:Gem-icon-sm.png]] (gem / talk) 10:25, 7 May 2007 (CDT)
 * Feeling better? Hope you are :) -- Ab.Er.Rant (msg Aberrant80) 20:44, 7 May 2007 (CDT)
 * Trying my best. At times it still hits me, but today was better than most during the past few months. I guess not accepting any customers, getting so much nice replies on my talk pages, meeting a few nice players in game and not thinking about studying helps. :) --[[Image:Gem-icon-sm.png]] (gem / talk) 20:53, 7 May 2007 (CDT)
 * Getting Apulanta songs stuck in one's head is good too. Kipu kuolee huutamalla, alastomana lattialla / miten kauan sitä kestää ei, sitä ei voi tietää / Kehen sattuu ja kuinka paljon, siitä kysymys enää tässä kai on / Kun on saavuttu siihen pisteeseen, ettei mikään ole varmaa... Right. Moving on now. &mdash; [[Image:Fin_sig.gif|User:Kyrasantae]] kyrasantae   22:02, 7 May 2007 (CDT)
 * Those lines are pretty clsoe to my feelings. :) Pain dies with screming. Yeah. --[[Image:Gem-icon-sm.png]] (gem / talk) 22:15, 7 May 2007 (CDT)
 * But the other part of that line is critical. *naked* on the *floor*. ;-) &mdash; [[Image:Fin_sig.gif|User:Kyrasantae]] kyrasantae   23:32, 7 May 2007 (CDT)

 * Gem, if you go we'll have no one's icon to steal! The wiki will fall apart, Bush will win a third election, and WoW will become more gay then it already is! Please don't leave! (Small note to anyone reading this: Bush will not win, WoW cannot become any more gay, and the wiki can and will not lose Gem! :D) Readem (talk *<font color="Black">contribs ) 22:28, 7 May 2007 (CDT)
