User talk:Silberstich

Welcome
Hi, welcome to the Wiki! Thanks for your edit to the Liberation of Numinal page. Please read ALL of the Important Links on the Main Page before beginning any editing activities on this wiki, as the Warhammer 40k Wiki has very strict formatting and content guidelines. Failure to follow them may lead to the immediate deletion of your work. If you have any questions or need help please contact either Lead Administrator Montonius or Associate Administrator Algrim Whitefang. Thanks, and enjoy your time here!

I did and I didn’t realized I had done anything wrong so far (I got the hint you’re not into superscripting); could you be more specific ?, as I merely started the article but a somewhat over-eager Algrim Whitefang finished it...Silberstich (talk) 20:40, May 23, 2015 (UTC)

RE: Numerals
Silberstich,

Sorry about the confusion in regards to the use of special characters for numerals. Yes, at first I was reverting your edits into the format that we have always used. But after further review, I realized what your intent was, and so have slowly begun utilizing the newer format myself. Stylistically, I believe it looks better than the original format. So, if you would like to continue, by all means, please do so. Hope that clears things up. Happy editing!

RE: Alpha Legion New Section
Silberstich,

You have permission to go ahead and add the information for Known Alpha Legion Operatives. I've already added the section to the Alpha Legion page, all you have to do is add the information. Have fun!

serpentia
Moin auch,

bist du dir sicher,. dass es n Pyroclast ist? Die sind doch seit m31 nicht mehr in Nutzung?Neithan02 (talk) 18:18, September 8, 2015 (UTC)

RE: Serpentia
Ave!

Ja das stimmt schon, im Buch steht auch dass das eher ein ehrwürdiger Titel ist als ein echter Pyroclast aus M31, ich glaube aus dem Text geht es auch hervor. Meinst du ich sollte den Link wieder entfernen? Nachher kommt ja doch einer vorbei der ihn wieder einsetzt...

Silberstich (talk) 12:59, September 9, 2015 (UTC)

Es muss immer der faktisch richtige Link sein, demnach: wenn er nicht diesen besonderen Flamer hat, dann isser kein Pyroclast, ebenso arbeitest du mit ner deutschen oder ner englischen Quelle (imo sind viele Übersetzungen da auch Matsche, siehe z.B. Bolter unübersetzt oder den Cybot)Neithan02 (talk) 17:54, September 9, 2015 (UTC)

Ur'zan Draakgard
Hey Silberstich, it's Zixis. I am just curious. Is this is all the material there is about the captain of the 6th Company? Because the history content ends with Ur’zan retreating.

ZiXIS (talk) 18:50, September 21, 2015 (UTC)

Hi Zixis! Well I guess there is more, but as I based my edits purely on the contents of Rebirth which is merely book one in the Circle of Fire-trilogy I’ll have to wait till Black Lib publishes the second volume... Hope this could help!

Silberstich (talk) 19:43, September 21, 2015 (UTC)

Great Work!
Hey Silberstich! It's Zixis. I just wanted to compliment you on all the great work that you have done on this wiki. You have spend a lot of time adding new data and articles to this wiki, and for that, I must say that I see you as an equal to Algrim, Shas and myself.

Good job and keep it up!

P.S if you want to answer this message, you should post it on my talk page

ZiXIS (talk) 17:13, October 19, 2015 (UTC)

Well Done!
Good job on finishing Navar's Hef page! I am just curious, on what will you work next?

ZiXIS (talk) 17:55, January 2, 2016 (UTC)

therion cohort material
Moin.

I was just wondering wether you had access to other material that includes the cohort, like "soulforge" and Shaowmasters)Neithan02 (talk) 09:44, January 14, 2016 (UTC)

My Opinion
As a devoted servant of the Emperor and an Inquisitor, I advice you to act the way you see it right (as long as it is within the boundaries of your duty). Really, role playing aside, you don't have to follow the Lexicanum as much as they do not follow us.

You are the author of your own work, and you can call it however you want. That's the beauty of it. As long as you keep devoting yourself to this wiki, you can shape your work the way you want (within the wiki's rules of course, not that you don't know that already).

So don't let yourself be influenced by others and keep up the good work!

Nice editing Silberstisch! Just wanted to tell you that there is no "the" in the names of the Chapter fleet.

Permission Granted
Hey Silberstich,

Of course you can edit the Space Wolves and Iron Hand pages. You've demonstrated your continued dedication and expertise in adding new and relevant information to many of the Space Marine pages, and your editing and writing skills have continuously grown since your first began. I have every confidence in your abilities. So, go ahead and edit away! I have every confidence in you...but know this, the Wolf Priests will be watching your every move...MWAAAHAAHAAA...Happy editing!

RE: Iron Hands
Greetings Adept Silberstich,

I changed the protection on the Iron Hands page. Try it now. If you have anything else you need, just let me know. Ave Imperator!

Neutron Laser
It is a separate weapon, but I would presume it is part of the same 'weapon family'. I'll add a See Also section link to the Neutron Laser page.

Chat
Hey Silberstich! Nice to see you! If you want to chat then I am on the wiki's chat-room (you can find it on the right side of the wiki).

ZiXIS (talk) 10:45, April 16, 2016 (UTC)

Further Contributions
Hi Silberstich! Yeah, I've noticed that it took you more time to work on the Nykona Sharrowkyn then with the previous article. But we are not in hurry, right?

About the contributions, as I said previously, it is not really relevant since we never have a dead-line=).

You can add whatever you want, but, if you want my opinion, then I wouldn't mind see the pages of Orpheus Sector on the wiki. Nevertheless, you can add whatever your heart desires.

You can inform Algrim about the articles that you are about to add, though I don't think that it will change something.

W40k Wiki is not going anywhere, so take your time and add what you want.

ZiXIS (talk) 14:21, April 16, 2016 (UTC)

Orpheus Sector
Hi Silberstich! I've read your message regarding the Orpheus Sector in the Segmentum Tempestus page (I shold have replied earlier). Anyway, in my opinion you should add the original data from the IA, since the data in the article does not talk about the Orpheus Sector at all and only represents a single world within the sector.

ZiXIS (talk) 06:20, May 3, 2016 (UTC)

Hi Silberstich! It's Zixes, what's up? Nice job on finishing the Orpheus Sector page! Just don't forget to add up the pages to the Sources content from which the data is taken. Can't wait to see your next works!

See ya!

RE: Future Work
Højda Adept Siberstich!

If you don't mind, go ahead and knock out the Tancred and Alaric articles, as they've needed one for quite awhile now. Then perhaps Ghargathuloth. Then you can concentrate on articles for Phantine and the Phantine Air Corps. That would be an excellent start. Of course, we still need to get caught up on the Horus Heresy background books, but that'll come in the near future. As always, thanks for all that you do! Keep up the excellent work! Ave Imperator! Øjor Va Russ! Leman Russ!

Wiki Issues
Greetings Adept Silberstich,

You might have to go into your personal Preferences...what I would do is click the 'Edit' button. Then go down to where it says 'Editing Experience'. What I do is is I have my settings on 'Source Editor'. Then all the options below it, I have the boxes unchecked. What this setting basically does, is ensures that when you go to edit, it will automatically load up the 'Source' mode. Hopefully this will resolve the issue. Just let me know if this works for you or not. Ave Imperator!

Algrim Whitefang, WH40K Wiki Senior Associate Administrator  (talk)  23:31, September 2, 2016 (UTC)

I have had similar issues when using Google Chrome, and I found that deleting the browser cache may help with the loading.

Spoilers
Hi Silberstich, I saw your message on the Alpharius Omegon and thought to share my opinion with you. I think that you have all the rights to write down the data for article. If you want, you can write in the summary section the following: Spoiler alert for the ending of the Praetorians of Dorn novel.

At the end of the day, it won't be your fault if some one will spoil his own fun. Those who will read the page will understand where the page is leading them. So again, it is your right to edit the page and you are not responsible for others.

See ya!

Recent Edits
Adept Silberstich,

Please don't take it the wrong way. Montonius was merely stating what he found when he was editing the article in question. BTW, in case you were unaware, Montonius is the Lead Site Moderator of this wiki. After a long hiatus, he is finally stepping back in to take over his duties of running this wiki. I've merely been filling in for the last year. He brought this issues up with me, and I was going to pass them along to you. But alas, you saw the message on my Talk Page before I had the chance to inform you. I apologize for not getting around to telling you myself. Thanks for your understanding. Hope this message finds you well.

Respectfully yours,

Algrim Whitefang, WH40K Wiki Senior Associate Administrator  (talk)  17:44, September 16, 2016 (UTC)

Your Work
I take no offense, but I am not dealing with enforcement activities. You intruded on a conversation between Administrators. If you were insulted, that is unfortunate, and it was not my intent. I was communicating with another Admin about a matter that I wished him to take action on, and I was explaining what needed to be done. If the wiki had the capability, the conversation would have been done privately. Since we do not have that capaibility, it was done in the open. No insult was intended, but I speak plainly and clearly and since the message was not intended for you, I did not waste time with niceties. However, in the future, just so you know, who I choose to deal with and how I choose to deal with them as Lead Administrator is my decision and my decision alone. Algrim would have explained to you exactly what the problem was and how to fix it, as was my intent, and there would have been no hard feelings.

If you want to see exactly what some of the problems with your pages were, you can look at the Orphean War page and the edits I made to it. In short, I would suggest in future that you please copy the text directly from the source as written, and do not attempt to paraphrase it. I deeply appreciate your attempt to add content in such large amounts and in such crucial missing areas for the wiki. Such ambition, time and effort is to be applauded. However, your written work was often difficult to understand and was not easily readable. It contained many grammatical errors, including run-on sentences, misspellings, missing clauses, awkward phrasing and words that are not actually correct English usages. On this wiki, above all else, we have a reputation for quality that I rigorously enforce as the final editor of every page. I have been absent for some time due to personal issues, so that daily editing was not performed and you probably did not realise that these errors even existed. That's fine. I will edit everything to make sure that your hard work remains on display here and all can enjoy it. But it would save me and the other editors an enormous amount of time, if in future you simply copy the text exactly that you want to display onto the page. Don't worry about the paraphrasing; it isn't necessary. This will eliminate the vast majority of the errors, and allow you to continue your large and much-admired contributions to the wiki in such critical areas.

In the future, please deal with Algrim, as he is our Admin for user outreach. I generally do not handle enforcement or editor outreach and will not always be able to respond in a timely manner. My job is to edit our pages and set overall wiki policy, so Algrim will remain your go-to source for editing help and getting your questions answered. Thanks.

Montonius (talk) 20:19, September 16, 2016 (UTC)

RE: Superscription Clarification
As far as I could gather from Monti's reply yesterday, he said that personally, he won't use them. And though he doesn't care for them, he won't stop those who chose to do so. I'll stop on the Roman numerals for the Legions, but I won't stop using them for everything else. At least, that's what I'll be doing. If he does revert any of your edits in regards to superscriptions, just let me know and we'll hash it out, until we can come to an accord. Ave Imperator!

Algrim Whitefang, WH40K Wiki Senior Associate Administrator  (talk)  20:14, September 17, 2016 (UTC)

Let me clarify the above. I prefer that no superscriptions be used, period. As I told Algrim, I will not remove them from where they already exist in future, but I prefer that no one use them going forward, particularly with Roman numerals. Montonius (talk) 20:19, September 17, 2016 (UTC)

Factions
Please note, use the word "faction" where you write "fraction." A fraction is a mathematical concept, among other meanings, which is why the spell checker is not picking up the word as a mistake. Also, please reread everything you've written before moving on to your next article, it will help you catch certain blatant spelling errors. Thanks. Montonius (talk) 03:57, September 30, 2016 (UTC)

Recent Edits
Adept Silberstich,

Your recent edits on several planet articles (Desert, Jungle, Ocean, Ice Worlds, ect.), though greatly appreciated, were questionable. It was not necessary to rearrange the source section into alphabetical order. There is a specific way of arranging sources in the Source section of an article:


 * 1. Codex, Dataslates and RPG Supplements in alphabetical order, with the newest edition ALWAYS on top.
 * 2. Imperial Armour Books, starting with the oldest (Imperial Armour Volume One in numerical order from lowest to highest).
 * 3. Comics or graphic novels.
 * 4. White Dwarf Weekly issues first, from most recent to oldest. Then the old White Dwarf Magazines from the most recent issue, to the oldest.
 * 5. Finally, WH30K novels. ALWAYS list the Horus Heresy novels FIRST, from the oldest to the most recent one, last. After the novels, then list any Horus Heresy novellas, from oldest to the most recent one.
 * 6. Then 40K Novels, in alphabetical order.
 * 7. Audio books.
 * 8. Links to PC games
 * 9. And finally, links to various websites (GW store, Forge World ect.)

As always, I appreciate your enthusiasm, but please DO NOT make large sweeping changes until you consult either myself or Montonius first! Failure to do so in the future will result in a temporary ban of your account. If you continue to fail to comply with the wiki's establish rules, this could result in more sever penalties. For you sakes, please comply and follow the rules. Thank you for your understanding and compliance.

You have been warned! The eyes of the Inquisition are upon you...

Sincerely,

Algrim Whitefang, WH40K Wiki Senior Associate Administrator  (talk)  01:13, February 21, 2017 (UTC)

Hail Silberstich,

I checked on Heka'tan but could not find any more typos. I hope I corrected all. I am done with the editing, go for more corrections but please leave Algrim a note, when you are done. I will write to him, that you will do another sweep for typos.
