User talk:Master Lewa

Greetings. Please note that editing other people's userpages is frowned upon, and could result in a minor ban. Thanks, Toa  Roden

Re:Tree-speak
I deleted it, not because the information was not needed, but because Tree-speak is the same as Chute-speak. And Chute-speak should (if it doesn't already) have a section of a "Language" page. I don't believe it needs a page of its own, but I suppose that's subject to argument. Toa  Roden

P.S. Before uploading images, could you please make sure we don't already have the image you are attempting to upload? And please give images a decent name when uploading, not something like "File:011.jpg".

I'm not going to restore it, because it's unneeded. We already have a place for Chute-speak/Tree-speak here. Toa  Roden

Use your brain. Reidak is a major character, and therefore requires a page; Tree-speak is a minor form of slang used by Le-Matoran, and isn't important enough to have its own page. Toa  Roden

I'm not fighting you, alright? You asked me a blunt question, and I answered it a bit harshly, I'll admit. I apologize for that, but I was only defending my decisions.

And now, I believe you haven't been officially welcomed to this wiki yet. Here you go:

Images
I've noticed you've been uploading some images. Here's a tip: if you want crisp and clear images, always save in .png format. .jpg format makes the picture look sort of blurry. <font face="Samurai"><font color="Black">Toa  <font face="Samurai"><font color="Black">Roden

When you save an image, it should have a drop-down menu under the box where you enter a name. Select ".png" instead of ".jpg". If this doesn't work, look up "changing photo format" on your computer. <font face="Samurai"><font color="Black">Toa  <font face="Samurai"><font color="Black">Roden

Re:Tohunga
I have Maku but I broke one of her arms and it's kind of hard to give personal informaton for a trade via wiki. However, I would recommend using this website to buy the Tohunga you need. I find it very reliable. Hope it helps! :D

Re:Something for you to do
Sorry for not replying sooner; I've been rather busy. It seems like you're a moderately experienced user, so I suppose you could work on placing all the unused photos on pages. <font face="Samurai"><font color="Black">Toa  <font face="Samurai"><font color="Black">Roden

P.S. Check out this.

Re:TBW violating law
Show me the problem and I'll fix it. And remember, if it's only a summary, then we don't need permission and are not violating laws. <font face="Samurai"><font color="Black">Toa  <font face="Samurai"><font color="Black">Roden

You still haven't shown me the article, so I can't say anything more about it. And no, it shouldn't be reduced to what the back says; Wikipedia has more plot summary than that on their site. <font face="Samurai"><font color="Black">Toa  <font face="Samurai"><font color="Black">Roden

Re:Contacting Greg
Hmmm... I must admit that I am skeptical as to whether your plan will succeed, but you asked for any help I could give you, so...

I am unable to get you in touch with Greg by myself, but I would advise you to try contacting Lego through Customer Service on Lego.com.

Beyond this, I have no advice that I am able to offer you. <font face="Samurai"><font color="Black">Toa  <font face="Samurai"><font color="Black">Roden

By 'Roden', do you mean my fanon character, or just his name? <font face="Samurai"><font color="Black">Toa  <font face="Samurai"><font color="Black">Roden

Well... the name isn't copyrighted or anything, so I guess it's up to you, but I think I'd prefer that you use 'Rodin'. <font face="Samurai"><font color="Black">Toa  <font face="Samurai"><font color="Black">Roden

Hey There
I know we haven't met before but I'm Kopeke6991 and I just want to say, keep up the good work!

Kopeke6991 14:50, May 9, 2011 (UTC)

Well my LewaMataToaOfMischief account was getting obsolete so I made another one. Since then I've actually made more edits so I help with typos and vandalism.

Kopeke6991 15:09, May 9, 2011 (UTC)

I'm not too sure who to pick for site leader. I might pick either Bold Clone or Toa Roden because:

1. They help the wikia out very much.

2. They welcome newcomers.

3. They had a big part in the Tuma55 and Vakamatrugaoffire incident. (If you want to know more, just say.)

And hey. Maybe once you've settled in and got alot of edits, you could be site leader one day!

I was a rollbacker once and my Rollbacking powers were taken from me. (Again, ask why if you want.)

Kopeke6991 15:18, May 9, 2011 (UTC)

OK. Here's what happened.

About a year ago a user named Bio dude commented on my blog (from the LMTOM account) called favourite Matoran. He called me a loser and I was angry. I then sent him a message implying not to do that again. Apparently that didn't get through his head. Instead, another user called Matoro1 (an admin) said that Bio dude should apologise to me. Instead, Bio dude placed a death threat on hi own user page, swore to me and refused to apologise to me. In conclusion, he was block for 6 months. My wikia course was on track again. But then, a user called Vakamatrugaoffire came onto the wikia and he said that he was Bio dude's brother. But the funny thing was that he had the exact same type of typing as Bio dude: messy. After a while another user (Tuma55) came onto the wikia and (I believe) he made the Skrall Team (A group which helped get rid of vandals). Anyway, I was inactive for 7 months and I went back onto the wikia. I noticed alot of chaos happening on the wikia. It turned out that Vakamatrugaoffire was Bio dude. He made a dupe account to get rid of causing trouble. (During this event, another user (Tesarasleader) went inactive after I tried to give him some help. He said that I ruined the life of two wikia users (UsagiTaicho and Tahuwarrior). Now UsagiTaicho and his friend (Zamorbomb9000) insulted me but they were sorry. I forgave them. (Tahuwarrior will be mentioned later on.)) Anyway, after this event happened, Tuma55 started making blogs implying that The Bionicle Wikia was going insane. He said that Bold Clone becoming an admin was crazy since he apparently cause over 3 edit wars (when one user vandalizes a wikia and the admins have to get rid of the vandalisation) on different wikis. This was false info and Tuma55 started to vandalize the wikia. He then got Vakamatrugaoffire to help him. This was chaos. Vakamatrugaoffire and Tuma55 started vandalizing the wikia. Along with this, they made 3 other wikis: One destroyed and 2 still operating. (Duncannuva Wikia (active), Skrall Team Wikia (active) and Tuma55 wikia (destroyed)) The wikia was going into shambles and then a numerous amount of users came flocking onto the wikia. They were all dupe accounts from Vakamatrugaoffire and Tuma55:

Komodo55

Tahuwarrior

Bitil223

WaterLord (he was somehow promoted to Rollbacker because they didn't know it was Tuma)

Draxon2

Takua3

There were loads more but that's just some of them. Anyway, we were in peril and then I came back. I asked around to see what happened and then I made a blog (The name I forgot but it was on my LMTOM account). I detected every bit of vandalism in the wiki's vacinity. Then it hit me: If they are vandalizing our wikia, then we can become anonymous users and vandalize their wikias. This plan worked well and the battle was won. Afterwards, Teridax the Ruler sent me a message implying I was second in command in the fight for vandals wikia known as The Order of Teridax Wikia.

And that's it.

 * Well...sorta like that. :D -- Bold  Clone  16:12, May 9, 2011 (UTC)
 * Whoops. OK. Master Lewa. I accidentally changed your user page because an anonymous user put somethign on there and I thought it was vandalism.
 * Kopeke6991 17:25, May 9, 2011 (UTC)

Re:Past tense
The idea behind the past tense isn't that BIONICLE is dead, but that (like Star Wars) everything happened "a long time ago, in a galaxy far far away". Hope that helps. -- Bold  Clone  15:22, May 9, 2011 (UTC)

Everything is written in past tense here for a reason. It has been that way even before I became a user here. Kazi22 21:22, May 9, 2011 (UTC)

You didn't do anything wrong
From what I've seen now, it looks as if Bold Clone has made you leave. He might have not meant to but I'll talk to him.

Kopeke6991 15:01, May 10, 2011 (UTC)


 * Hey. Don't worry. It's cool. You messed up--big deal. Nobody's mad at you. I still want you around. Just keep editing, and if you have any questions, feel free to ask. Hope I haven't driven you off. Still there? :) -- Bold  Clone  15:59, May 10, 2011 (UTC)
 * Yeah. Besides, Bold Clone's an admin and he's practically made anger management calsses for me! XD. Anway, he was only trying to say "You were going the right thing but you made a few wee mistakes." (And yeah. I'm Scottish).

 * I think the others will go easy on you, since you're a relatively new member. (I've done worse, and gotten off easy because I simply didn't know the rules).
 * As for the MNOLG, you may want to ask the other Staffers on how to use the PDF. -- Bold  Clone  16:53, May 10, 2011 (UTC)

Go Here, find the box labeled Signature, and enter your wished signature there. If you are going to use wiki markup coding, then you must check the Custom Signature box, see this picture.

Re:Questions
Hey, I was getting there! :D Anyways:

First, in regards to 'the Cleaning', it is an unofficial name, so I would rather we not use it. Additionally, I don't think we even have a page for the cleaning of the island in the first place.

Second, regarding your BIONICLE books; they are ultimately not official and not canon, so we cannot put anything related to the books on this wiki. We are a canon wiki of facts, not a fan-created idea wiki. However, there are 'fanon' wikis out there (fanon=fan canon).

Third, as this is a canon wiki, we cannot just build BIONICLE toys and canonize them. It has to be approved by Greg Farshtey.

Fourth, we already have a 'Category:Weapons'. Feel free to use it.

Fifth, the AGC page, is as you said, a non-canon term we use. You don't need to try to legitimize it with a massive list of events that happened after the GC. It might be a stub, but that might also be all the info we have for it. Hope that helps. :) -- Bold  Clone  16:21, May 11, 2011 (UTC)


 * First, I haven't decided whether there is any more information to add to the AGC page.
 * Second, what makes you say that GregF has retired?
 * Third, the first 3 books were canon. Your books are not. We Sysops do not decide what is canon; only GregF does.
 * Fourth, do we even need a page on 'the Cleaning'?
 * Fifth, we Sysops do not decide what is canon. Non-canon content is not allowed on this wiki (except for user pages).
 * Sixth, we Sysops do not decide what is canon. Non-canon content is not allowed on this wiki (except for user pages). Period.
 * Seventh, yes, it is somewhat tiring, to slog through large posts, but I'm willing to work through it. -- Bold  Clone  16:45, May 11, 2011 (UTC)


 * If you think we need a page for 'the Cleaning', then go to Vote to create this Page and nominate the page.
 * Two, GregF still writes serial chapters for on-line official BIONICLE stories.
 * This might be Kazi22's site, but Kazi22's site is a canon site. This is like that 'past tense' discussion; the rule is that no fanon is allowed. Period. End of discussion. And it's unacceptable to add and non-canon material to this site.
 * Yes, I read your blog. -- Bold  Clone  17:40, May 11, 2011 (UTC)


 * For the record, I do like to have cereal for breakfast, and money is good. What that has to convincing me to make your book canon...IDK. :) -- Bold  Clone  18:24, May 11, 2011 (UTC)
 * Sigh...look. The only person who can canonize anything is GregF. It doesn't matter how good your stories are, they are still not official. I don't intend to be mean here, but we can't simply canonize anything we want. -- Bold  Clone  19:31, May 11, 2011 (UTC)


 * Well, If you want my help, then you have it. My advice in the short term is to stick around this wiki and help out, even if you don't always agree with the rules. More long-term, why don't you place your unofficial BIONICLE stuff on your userpage? You could still be creative in coming up with background for them, while keeping the content open for anyone to see. -- Bold  Clone  23:38, May 11, 2011 (UTC)

Canonising your book
Right now, after reading a few of your messages, I thought I'd let you in on a few minor details about Greg:

~Because of his contract, he is legally not allowed to read any fanfiction, as he may take inspiration from it. Which is bad.

~Same goes for MoCs.

So, in order for your book to be canonised, he would have to read it. Which he legally cannot. But you could always post it on Custom Bionicle Wiki, where the members there respect people like you (aspiring authors), and want to help you. Most people write books for the fun of it, not for it to become famous. Why don't you try that. -Monasti (Talk)  20:54, May 11, 2011 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure about copyright rules, my advice would simply be to work hard on the BIONICLE books you're writing, and worry about copyright issues when you are looking for someone to publish the books (that someone likely being LEGO). -- Bold  Clone  15:10, May 12, 2011 (UTC)

Re:My wiki
Er... I'm afraid not. I don't think we need another BIONICLE wiki, and I have enough to do on this one. <font face="Samurai"><font color="Black">Toa  <font face="Samurai"><font color="Black">Roden

TBW is not extreme, and neither is CBW. We are a source of information about the canon BIONICLE story-line, and CBW is a place for BIONICLE fans to place their fan-fiction and MOCs.

And it's not "Greg Farshtey's storyline". Greg Farshtey is merely an employee of the Lego Group, and part of his job is to write the BIONICLE story. I don't believe you completely understand this fact. <font face="Samurai"><font color="Black">Toa  <font face="Samurai"><font color="Black">Roden

Oh. Sorry, I didn't mean to offend you. However, I really don't have the time to work on your wiki, but I wish you luck. ;-) <font face="Samurai"><font color="Black">Toa  <font face="Samurai"><font color="Black">Roden

Sure, you can see me their! Though unfortunately I may not have the time. - Mazeka 369  Cool! 21:18, May 13, 2011 (UTC)
