==Sig==

:Need help with making your sig concise, instead of copying/pasting? --{{User:Gamefreak75/Sig}}

That would be great! [[File:Volatiledweevil.jpg|frameless|50px|link=http://pikmin.wikia.com/wiki/User:Volatile_Dweevil|Volatile Dweevil's User Page!]] [[User:Volatile Dweevil|Volatile]] [[User talk:Volatile Dweevil|Dweevil]] [[File:41volatiledweevil.png|frameless|50px|link=http://pikmin.wikia.com/wiki/User_talk:Volatile_Dweevil|Volatile Dweevil's Talk Page!]]

Okay, go to the top where it says MORE (next to where it says Log Out) and then click on preferences. Look where it says signature and then copy and paste this exactly as it appears: <nowiki>{{SUBST:User:Volatile Dweevil/Sig2}}</nowiki>

==Regarding Images==
First of all, let me say welcome to the Piklopedia, enjoy your stay. Second, you can take screenshots yes? I've seen many of the images you've uploaded-and I'm impressed. However, the images you added to pages like [[Olimar's Notes]], seem rather tacky with the red circle around the button to press to view the notes. Perhaps you could retake these images with the notes opened?
[[User:Pikmin1254|<b><span style="color:blue;">Pikmin</span></b>]][[User talk:Pikmin1254|<b><span style="color:purple;">1254</span></b>]]

:(S)He didn't take them. [http://pikmin.wikia.com/wiki/File:PuffyBlowhogPiklopedia.jpg] What's more, they got GIF-ified, somewhere along the way.{{User:Greenpickle/sig}}

::Oh, I feel stupid. But still, we need some better pictures for those pages. They were most likely GIF-ified in MS Paint.
[[User:Pikmin1254|<b><span style="color:blue;">Pikmin</span></b>]][[User talk:Pikmin1254|<b><span style="color:purple;">1254</span></b>]]

Yeah, the images were GIFed in Microsoft Paint, I probably should have made them JPEG, shouldn't have I? {{User:Volatile Dweevil/Sig}}

:It depends on what's in the image, but for screenshots like those, yes. Might want to look at [[Help:Files]].{{User:Greenpickle/sig}}

== Edit Dates ==

After adding a picture to the Scarpanid category, I couldn't help but notice that the little "last edit" message claimed that I had made an edit on January 25, 2008, before I even was a user on this wiki. Edit-Forgot to sign-- {{User:Volatile Dweevil/Sig}}

:That's because you're using Monaco, which I'm beginning to expect is a failure by design.{{User:Greenpickle/sig}}

== Map ==

Where did you get that map of the impact site from? It's pretty good {{User:Snakeboss14/sig}}

== admin rights on the pikmin ideas wiki? ==

totally unexpected [[User:Pikness34|Pikness34]]

:Errrrr....... how do i create new articles in the Pikmin Ideas Wiki??? {{User:Pikness34/Sig}}

::Um I tried getting the Achievement Badges thing for the Pikmin Ideas Wiki but You need to do it Pikness34-

:::Really?{{User:Pikness34/Sig}}

::::Yeah. {{User:Volatile Dweevil/Sig}}

:::::Hmmm... I'll try Implementing them {{User:Pikness34/Sig}}

::::::Okay, it probably isn't extremely important, we could do a manual system, though it would be very nice if you could get it to work. {{User:Volatile Dweevil/Sig}}

Mind helping at Spectrobes Fanon Wikia Vol?

{{User:Pikness34/Sig}}

:I'll come over and see what I can do. {{User:Volatile Dweevil/Vol2}}

i will be getting pikmin 2 soon!

:Cool! pikmin 2 is pretty fun. By the way, do you know about signatures? {{User:Volatile Dweevil/Vol2}}

==Re:Bot==
Yeah, I was going to ask after I was sure it was fine with many pages.  I tested importing first, then transferring the image, and that saves the page text history properly, so do that with all the files first.  I'll quickly generate a list for you to make it easier to export...[http://stuff.greenpickle.co.cc/fanon%20images.txt here].

Yes, it worked fine.  I'll need bot and admin rights on GPBot over there, admin 'cause the upload is done through URL (faster than download then upload).

Also, Peanut64 and Sir Pikmin - I'm fine to remove their admin status here, right?  I mean, they were only given it because Porple didn't know which they needed it on, yes? [[User:Greenpickle|Greenpickle]]

==re:User and user talk pages==
I just thought a lot of users wouldn't be active any more.  In particular, many userpages of long-inactive users embed images that we have no other use for.  I could do it if people want it done, though, yeah.  Were you thinking every page, or just active users, or just pages that are linked to somewhere?  Also, are you going to reply to the stuff above? <span style="font-family:times;">'''''[[User:Greenpickle|<span style="color:#080;">G</span>]][[User talk:Greenpickle|<span style="color:#050;">P</span>]]'''''</span>

Yeah, I'm all for the bot, I can't make you admin you there though, Sir Pikmin and Peanut are the only 'crats. And I was just thinking user pages that are linked to for inactive users, if you could exclude active users. Also, the list above does help a lot, thanks.

== Adminship ==

The new admin forum is up, go nominate yourself. {{User:Snakeboss14/sig}}

Done. {{User:Volatile Dweevil/Vol2}}

== Level 3 Punishment ==

I was looking back on my talk page, and I noticed that you said "previously clean record." I have no recollection of ever vandalizing the main page, and if I did, it was entirely on accident, although I really have no idea how I would have managed '''that'''. That's a bit extreme accident, even for me.[[User:Pikdude|Pikdude]] 07:21, 29 September 2010 (EDT)

See your talk page Pikidude... '''[[User:Ridly|<span style="color:darkBlue;">Ridly</span>]] [[Image:Metroid.gif]] <small><sup>[[User Talk:Ridly|<span style="color:darkslateblue">Screech!</span>]]</sup></small>''' 13:14, 29 September 2010 (EDT)

:Ridly, I happen to know how to use my watchlist.[[User:Pikdude|Pikdude]] 16:01, 29 September 2010 (EDT)

== Congratulations ==

Good lob on becoming the new admin. You are probably the most deserving person for that job.

:Thanks! {{User:Volatile Dweevil/Vol2}}

All of you were deserving. [[User:Loafy the Breadbug|Loafy the Breadbug]]
