Weableandbob (talk) 00:37, 16 March 2016 (UTC) Hi, I saw you posted on Pereidh's page. AFAIK, he hasn't played Firefall in quite a while and doesn't actively check on the wiki. I'm in the Wiki Guardian user group, so I should be able to take care of any admin tasks you need. I don't think it's possible to give admin privileges to only a subsection of pages, although I could be wrong. As for your requests:
 * 1) I can go ahead and do those deletions when I have the time/stop being lazy and actually start contributing to the wiki again
 * 2) Pictures can be changed by anyone (unless this new wiki has really stupid restrictions on that). You should be able to just upload a new version of the image. Similarly, you should be able to add new pictures without any issues. I would say to tag them with Creature Images category, but that seems to have been left out during the migration, so I wouldn't bother for now.
 * 3) You should be able to move pages to a new pages using the Move option under the "More" tab on a page (Again, assuming there aren't stupid restrictions on this wiki). Just make sure you have the correct name before moving the page so there aren't needless redirects from multiple moves due to typos.
 * 4) You should be able to create new pages. Just be sure to tag them with the correct categories when you do.

Pereidh (talk)(forums.firefall.com) 04:13, 7 April 2016 (UTC) While I'm not playing the game I do check the FireFall forums pretty regularly, so if you need to get in touch with me PMs there will get my attention (and they should also send me an email). I'm playing Warframe right now, but their wiki has plenty of people working on it, so I'm not really needed there.
 * 1) Think of me as a technical contributor to the wiki, more than a content contributor.  If you need something complicated doing I might be able to help.
 * 2) Standard practice on wikis is that nothing gets deleted (personally I've done it with images that were poor quality, but that's it).  Instead we move the pages may be archived.  Here on FireFall wiki though, we have Category:DeprecatedContent that's used to store content that's no longer in the game.
 * 3) Rule number one of editing a wiki: Be bold in editing pages.  If you're contributing, you are useful, and you get respect for that.  People who complain 'this needs updating' without using the edit button themselves are not.  You don't need to ask permission, you just need to give people a heads-up if it's likely to interfere with something they're doing, or you need a bit of extra help with the formatting (there should be templates and categories or something to put at the top of the page to say the article needs some work, so other people who can help, can find it).  Most of the time if someone has put work in on an article or section of the wiki, they will be watching those pages, so they'll see the updates.

Oddities
Just giving a small heads-up: If the skin misbehaves, it's my fault. I've cleaned it up and converted to Hydradark, our NEW AND IMPROVED (heh, heh) skin for dark-colored wikis. If there's anything I can do to help, don't hesitate to call upon me (I'm the Curse janitor :)). As always on wikis, I'd also like to thank you for your contributions!
