Maybe we should just copy and paste everything from BS01 here. Swert said we could as long as we give them credit for the info. Like it,Hate it? Reply!- L D 7 6 0 { Give a yell } 06:21, 5 July 2007 (UTC)
 * I would tend to be against that, since if we just copy and paste everything from BS01, then we're basically an exact replica of BS01 with a different name and community. I could see doing it for some articles until someone gets around to doing them in their own words, but not for everything. ToaAuserv 08:06, 5 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Not to mention BS01 has a different Manual of Style. - Daiku { Whine Here } { Look what I did! } {My Library} 13:12, 5 July 2007 (UTC)

BS01
Whenever I go there, I can look at a couple pages and then it gives me a message saying the servers unavailable. After a couple minutes I can go back though! Does anyone know why this is happeneing?- L D 7 6 0 { Talk 22:48, 10 June 2007 (UTC)
 * I have the same problem. I think it's the same as Board Messages on BZP, where the server is too busy. Although they seem to be more frequent and much more annoying on BS01...ToaAuserv 00:13, 11 June 2007 (UTC)

I keep trying to edit the monobook.css so we can have image:wiki2 across the backgound and a Hau in the corner of the categorys, but it isn't working! I'm getting mad... can somebody help me?- L D 7 6 0 { Talk 04:44, 9 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Never mind. Looks like I had to turn off and on my computer! X-S - L D 7 6 0 { Talk[[Image:Luigi.gif|24px]] 04:05, 10 June 2007 (UTC)

That background looks bad. It'd look better if you got one big image, preferrably lighter so it wouldn't clash with the navigation bars. -Daiku

Somethimgs wrong
Whenever I try to go to the BS01 WIKI it keeps taking me to some other screen asking me for my username and password. I type 'em in and nothing happens! Can somebody help me?- LD760 { Talk 23:50, 14 May 2007 (UTC)
 * This happened back when they were getting the site back up. Only the mods can get on - I'd say it has something to do with getting the main site back up. - Arban - \Compliment Here/[|See here for more me]\[|My Kanohi Stuff]/ 00:06, 15 May 2007 (UTC)

Metru Wiki?
We all know how BS01 call themselves Wiki Nui. Maybe we could call ourselves Metru Wiki!

For?

 * 1) - LD760 { Talk[[Image:Luigi.gif|24px]] 05:22, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

Against?

 * 1) It'd be a good idea, if it didn't sound so trite. - Daiku { Whine Here } { Look what I did! } {My Library} 00:49, 31 March 2007 (UTC)
 * got a different name then?- LD760 { Talk[[Image:Luigi.gif|24px]] 07:08, 6 April 2007 (UTC)

Personally I think Bioniclepedia is pretty cool. Wiki Nui and Metru Wiki both sound pretty tacky, thats just my opinion. Crusher 10:24, 11 April 2007 (UTC)

Titles PEOPLE!
People seriously! Put more titles! And BTW,does anyone know what Template:T is? I've seen it on Jaatikko's list of templates(click on edit and scroll to the bottom to see 'em),but I don't see it on there! Anyone? Am I all alone here?- LD760 { Talk 21:13, 17 March 2007 (UTC)
 * well,I found out what template:t was. I was just a typo on the qoute template,which resuted in any article with a qoute having it. Problem solved!- LD760 { Talk[[Image:Luigi.gif|24px]] 23:14, 17 March 2007 (UTC)

Bio-news
I was wondering, should there be a Bionicle news thing? Like a fake Bionicle newspaper with fake news,run by me! - LD760 { Talk
 * Never mind. I'm doing it.- LD760 { Talk[[Image:Luigi.gif|24px]] 00:14, 7 March 2007 (UTC)

Current Battle
I was thinking,should we have a box on the Main Page for a little battle thinghy? Like a box where two characters are selected and users vote for who will win. It sounds wierd I know...but. LD760 { yell at ME! / Wanna see my edits? } 00:40, 26 February 2007 (UTC)

Are you taking this idea from the thing I semi-ran on Wookieepedia called the Friday Night Fight? Or did you just come up with it? Either way, the Main Page is no place for it. \/  ladius  |\/|agnum  00:47, 26 February 2007 (UTC)


 * No. [[Image:Toa Iruini.jpg|75px]] LD760 { yell at ME! / Wanna see my edits? }[[Image:Luigi.gif|24px]] 01:02, 26 February 2007 (UTC) 
 * Where would a good place be then?- LD760 { Talk[[Image:Luigi.gif|24px]] 23:58, 1 March 2007 (UTC)

How about... User: Legodude760/Current Battle? \/  ladius  |\/|agnum  00:19, 2 March 2007 (UTC)

Hmmm... personally I think this is a great idea, and the main page would be perfect.Crusher 05:09, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

Logo
We should have a new logo. The current one is in bad quality. \/  ladius  |\/|agnum  20:16, 25 February 2007 (UTC)
 * What do you mean bad wuality? [[Image:Toa Iruini.jpg|75px]] LD760 { yell at ME! / Wanna see my edits? }[[Image:Luigi.gif|24px]] 21:38, 25 February 2007 (UTC)

I mean that it doesn't really represent Bionicle as a whole, and looks too pixellated. \/  ladius  |\/|agnum  21:44, 25 February 2007 (UTC)


 * I'll work on a new one. What do you all want? - Daiku { Whine Here } { Look what I did! } {My Library} 23:17, 25 February 2007 (UTC)


 * Put Takua and Iruini in if you can! ;-P [[Image:Toa Iruini.jpg|75px]] LD760 { yell at ME! / Wanna see my edits? }[[Image:Luigi.gif|24px]] 00:37, 26 February 2007 (UTC)

Nah. It should have the three virtues symbol in it, possibly with a white-font Logo. \/  ladius  |\/|agnum  00:47, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Actually, Takua (considering he's the best-known Chronicler) would be good. -DaikuI'm not logged in!

http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Daiku/Banners/bioniclepedia_symbol_2.jpg Just putting the finishing touches on it now? What do you think? - Daiku { Whine Here } { Look what I did! } {My Library} 02:42, 26 February 2007 (UTC)

Huh. Takua looks swuber! That would work. Thanks again, Daiku. \/  ladius  |\/|agnum  12:24, 26 February 2007 (UTC)

Okay...now how do I get it in the corner? - Daiku { Whine Here } { Look what I did! } {My Library} 01:36, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

Featured Images?
Legodude760 apparently wants us to look more like Wikipedia. I don't like that way of thinking, although a featured image may be in order. Discuss here. \/  ladius  |\/|agnum  13:36, 16 February 2007 (UTC)

I though aboput it a little,and I changed my mind.Featured Image would be pretty cool though.- Legodude760 { Give a yell! 18:31, 16 February 2007 (UTC)

So... do you un-change your mind? I have a few pictures in mind, but I don't think that Bionicle is really the place for it, for the same reason that Wookieepdia decided not to. \/  ladius  |\/|agnum  18:50, 16 February 2007 (UTC)

I don't really like the idea. We don't really have enough pictures. - Daiku { Whine Here } { Look what I did! } {My Library} 00:45, 17 February 2007 (UTC)

What are you talking about?!We have tons!- Legodude760 { Give a yell! 03:31, 17 February 2007 (UTC)

Back up the "we have tons" statement with tons of high-quality images that would look good on the front page and not be subject to copyright problems. \/  ladius  |\/|agnum  15:01, 17 February 2007 (UTC)

Ohhh...I guess not.- Legodude760 { Give a yell! 19:07, 17 February 2007 (UTC)

A Problem
For some reason, every time I upload a picture now, it turns into a link to the Wikia home site. This is not good. Has our server reached its max or something? What happened? \/  ladius  |\/|agnum  19:17, 17 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Okay,until we figure this out,don't upload them anymore.- Legodude760 { Give a yell! 19:24, 17 February 2007 (UTC)
 * I just slapped a delete tag on a bunch of dupe images. There's a lot, such as Image:Toanuva and Image: Toa Nuva. I didn't get all of them, if somebody's looking for something to do. - Daiku { Whine Here } { Look what I did! } {My Library} 03:03, 18 February 2007 (UTC)

Thanks, Daiku. \/  ladius  |\/|agnum  16:08, 18 February 2007 (UTC)

= Past Tense = It's in the Manual of Style. It's on the Site Notice. Warnings have been given. But still, people persist in writing articles in present tense. We need a solution. - Daiku { Whine Here } { Look what I did! } {My Library} 00:50, 31 March 2007 (UTC)

How about a version of BZPower's proto power? Perhaps we could have like a kanohi version, i.e., you start with a matoran mask, then a noble mask, then a great mask, then a nuva mask, then a legendary mask suck as the Ignikia?

We could use assigned moderators to check who di such thing and maybe they could go down a level if they did too many things for example. Crusher 11:19, 14 April 2007 (UTC)

Hmm...I like that proto idea. We'll have to vote on it after the tense voting is done. - Daiku { Whine Here } { Look what I did! } {My Library} 00:50, 15 April 2007 (UTC)
