The BIONICLE Wiki talk:Site Rules

Okay, punishment number three doesn't need to be there. It's just rediculous, and it will make people think we're just immature kids trying to run a wiki. I'd advise changing it. -Daiku 02:40, 31 December 2006 (UTC)


 * Well,actually,if you look at this page's history tab,KFan II wrote that.Legodude760 06:32, 31 December 2006 (UTC)

You could probably do with changing your spoiler policy, guys... --BS01 Swert Talk
 * You mean you want us to copy your wiki's spoiler policy? ToaAuserv ? ...BPAdmin 02:09, 4 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Did I say that? Just add a small date (even a week) so it doesn't hurt book sales. That's all. --BS01 Swert Talk
 * I agree. If you want BIONICLE and therefore your wiki to survive through the years, you're going to have to avoid doing things that ultimately hurt LEGO's sales. And what exactly is wrong with copying BS01's policy anyway? If it works (and it does), why not base at least part of yours off of it? Not having anything to do with it simply because it originated in BS01 is foolish and illogical (not saying that's what you're doing though). -- Grav
 * Well, we were once criticized by Bionicleman for copying your idea to give our tabs Bionicle-based names. So we aren't going to be quick to copy your ideas in the future. For the record, I think our wiki would survive just fine without a spoiler ban (if Bionicle wouldn't, though I don't think it has a huge effect on sales), but if BZP will ban us for it, I don't think it's worth it to be stubborn. We'll probably end up adding a short spoiler ban. ToaAuserv ? ...BPAdmin 21:06, 4 June 2008 (UTC)

"User rating"
I don't like the "User rating". What is it for? Nathanael1711talk 20:54, 21 June 2008 (UTC)
 * As a reward for being good or a punishment for being bad. BTW, PL, I think the guidelines should be a bit more specific, but I don't exactly know how we would do that. ToaAuserv ? ...BPAdmin 22:18, 21 June 2008 (UTC)
 * I spent a large chunk of my day doing that, =P I got it as specific as I could, but I'm sure you'll think of something. LOL -- Panaka lego  22:24, 21 June 2008 (UTC)
 * What's there is fine, but how do we know when someone deserves to go up just one point instead of 5? ToaAuserv ? ...BPAdmin 23:47, 21 June 2008 (UTC)
 * ...Good question, I don't know the answer, but it shouldn't be too hard to know when I'm faced with that situation. And if I am, I'd ask you guys (you and MG). -- Panaka lego  00:04, 22 June 2008 (UTC)
 * If it is in the Rules, ok. But don't edit my userpage. I think its in the Wikia-Privacy-Rules. You would be allowed to do it if it was breaking rules. If you want me to put the rating-thing on my userpage, say me. Nathanael1711talk 10:01, 22 June 2008 (UTC) (And I still don't like the rating)
 * What don't you like about it? And by the way, administrators are allowed to edit your userpage, I'm rather sure. It's not like we're going to change any of your personal information, just adding the rating template and from there tweaking a number up and down. But if someone vandalizes their own userpage or whatnot, we have to remove it; I don't think anyone would argue with that. ToaAuserv ? ...BPAdmin 13:51, 22 June 2008 (UTC)
 * 1.(Cant explain the first question in english; I come from Germany). 2. Admins ARE allowed to edit my userpage when its Vandalism or something like that, but they are NOT allowed to edit it because of a little userbox. Tell me on my usertalk if you want me to have this thing. (Well, on BS01, its a bigger problem; the staff edits my UP because of a few grammar mistakes). Nathanael1711talk 15:23, 22 June 2008 (UTC)

(Undent) Can you give us a link? MarioGalaxy2433g5 { talk /contribs/Logs} 15:37, 22 June 2008 (UTC)
 * I just realized that others are allowed to edit your page, because otherwise, at central wikia, Barnstars can't be awarded. MarioGalaxy2433g5  { talk /contribs/Logs} 17:53, 22 June 2008 (UTC)
