Yeah for the fan translation ones just name them after the name in the translation. --[[User:FlyingRagnar|FlyingRagnar]] 13:13, 28 January 2012 (CST) | Yeah for the fan translation ones just name them after the name in the translation. --[[User:FlyingRagnar|FlyingRagnar]] 13:13, 28 January 2012 (CST) | ||
: Ok, you want me to delete [[Category:Dragon_Quest_IX_enemy_sprites|these]]? The bot is not sophisticated enough to find and delete the redirects. It could possibly delete any article which links to a given article, but that is not what we want since it would delete stuff we don't want to delete. --[[User:FlyingRagnar|FlyingRagnar]] 13:48, 29 January 2012 (CST) | : Ok, you want me to delete [[Category:Dragon_Quest_IX_enemy_sprites|these]]?

First of all, you need to start being more polite in your messages on talk pages. Demanding answers from anyone is rude and not the way to get others to respond to you. Say 'please' and 'thanks'. Don't be so blunt with what you want. Don't tell anyone else what they should or shouldn't do. You have no authority to do that. | |||
When will you delete those images? | |||
: Answer: When I feel like it. There is nothing stopping you from manually deleting them or from editing in one of the other millions of places. I am aware of your request and will delete them at some point. | |||
Why did you let those bots in our site? | |||
: Answer: I did not "let" them in. Spammers are not uncommon on mediawiki wikis. It is impossible to keep out every instance of a spammer. In this case, all 4 users were using legit gmail email addresses which had been confirmed. There is no way to distinguish between these and other valid users. Therefore, we will just have to delete the spam and block them. Second, it is not "our" site. It is my and Zenithian's site. We pay the bills and do the administration. | |||
Why is Dragon Quest Wiki talking a LONG LONG LONG LONG time to load again? (especially the mobile version) | |||
: Answer: We are on cheap shared webhosting. This costs about $70 a year. As a result sometimes other sites we are sharing a server with hog the bandwidth and make our site slow. We can do nothing to control when this happens. I'm sure it will eventually get better again, but unless we upgrade to better hosting someday, it will continue to happen. | |||
