== SL VI Revision ==
There was a recent notice by VTeam saying:
<div id="box">''Hello! This is a notice to everyone with objects on SL Volunteer Islands (not including SLVEC). Time to herald in a new era for those islands! We ask that you please take time in the next week to remove ALL of your belongings from these islands. On or after April 18th, VTeam will be returning every remaining object to prepare for SL Volunteer Appreciation Day festivities and new SLVI plans. Thank you for your participation over the last year! How far we've come! :) Volunteers Rock!!! ~VTeam''</div>
So the islands will be revised... but how? --[[User:Zai_Lynch|Zai Lynch]]([[User_talk:Zai_Lynch|talk]]|[[Special:Contributions/Zai_Lynch|contribs]]) 11:09, 19 April 2008 (PDT)

I was browsing the Second Life wiki and came across your uploaded images, and followed them here. What a super example of using your wiki page to provide help and info! I really appreciate you having these editing instructions too. :) Keep it up, and thanx for linking to my [[Video Tutorials]]!

Well, I am unaware of how to do this, So if you are good at this style of reconstruction, feel free to do so.
I am just a rookie at Wiki coding, so something is better then nothing....

You have the go-ahead to change if you wish it to be a discussable page.

== re: [[User_talk:SignpostMarv_Martin#Template:_Delete|template: delete]] ==

Last time I brought this up with Rob, the policy is generally to not delete stuff.

However, it's been a while so you might want to poke Rob at [[Office Hours#Rob Linden|his office hours]]
:[[User:SignpostMarv Martin|SignpostMarv Martin]] 11:11, 11 February 2008 (PST)

::ok, THX =) I'll have a look if I'm able to convince him about the helpfulness of such a template. Greetings, --[[User:Zai Lynch|Zai Lynch]] 09:49, 12 February 2008 (PST)

:::I was referring more to actually deleting stuff, rather than using templates to request such deletion.
:::To memory, the only thing that was deleted (as opposed just blanking the article) was the wiki-coded version of the TOS (I'd ported it over intending it as a means of tracking changes in the TOS) because any differences in the TOS might cause legal issues. Though LL don't seem to mind the wiki-code version of the Community Standards document :-)
:::The only reason why an article shouldn't be deleted is attribution, or if one article is based off another.
:::I would suggest & support a system of requesting accidentally created articles to be deleted, as well as redirected articles that aren't used for disambiguation- [[User:Orientation Islander|Orientation Islander]] redirects to [[User:SignpostMarv Martin|SignpostMarv Martin]] because they're both me for example, but articles that were moved/redirected because of typos or structure changes that aren't linked to any longer (might be wise to discuss a minimum time frame such an article stays around doing nothing).
:::[[User:SignpostMarv Martin|SignpostMarv Martin]] 01:48, 13 February 2008 (PST)
:::: I wasn't requesting Residents getting delete perms, it was just the issue of attribution being affected I think. You'd have to dive around the wiki somewhere, but I think the end result was stuff gets moved into a recycle bin pseudo-namespace, which is incredibly wasteful.

== re: [[VTeam]] ==

The reason the VTeam article was included as opposed to integrated into the category was to allow the VTeam the option of fleshing out the information at a later date.

Integrating the article either locks them in to the category (in my opinion, categories as articles are a borked concept), whereas with the templating system, sections of the article can be selectively included in the catgegory.

-[[User:SignpostMarv Martin|SignpostMarv Martin]] 08:28, 19 May 2008 (PDT)

:Yeah that sounds like a good idea once the article grew to a mentionable size so it wouldn't be included completly. When I stumbled upon it, I just feeled like having a déjà vu and was a little confused. I made this change since I assumed that others might feel the same way. So once the article becomes more then an introduction/summary which is completely mirrored by the category, I would totally agree that an include of the first summary lines would be best to handle it, since it's a very dynamic concept. I hope that will happen in a not to distant future ([[User_talk:Lexie_Linden#JIRA_.26_Visibility_Request|*plopp*]]) and I'd be glad if my edit would become reverted once this happened. THX for pokin' me to it =)

No more videos on your page? :-(

:Aawww *snifflz* *hugz Orla*. I hope it's just temporarily tho. I noticed, that some browsers (still) got problems with the overflow, which results in my whole page beeing borked. I'm not entirely sure why it is, since it looks o.k. in case I just have a look at the [[User:Zai Lynch/Videobar|subpage which I'm embedding]]. But as soon as I look at the embedded version, it's borked in one of my browsers. Maybe in others too... So I'll have to wait until I find a work-around. :-/
:Kewl sig btw!

::Awwwwwww *rehugz*. Just noticed they are gone. Didn't notice any problems yet, using Opera and Firefox :D [[Image:Orla.jpg|25px]] [[User:Orlandoo_Habercom|'''O r l a ''']] ''06:04, 20 June 2008 (PDT)''
:::It's strange. Borked for me in Opera 9.27 (both, embedded and non-embedded), borked in FF3.0 (just when embedded), not borked in FF 2.0.0.14, borked in an IE on my Windowwwz... I don't know. Kuraiko tested it and said it would work for him in FF, IE and Opera. Watched it at 3 different PCs now with multiple browsers and some are able to handle it while others just avoid the scrollbar, displaying the whole page with a width of about 3000pixel or something. So that looks really ugly.
