Just kidding. :P I only regret not including Loupaz in a sim since you've been away from the Mercury... given her a new hobby or something.

Say hi to Dave/Tan for me! –[[User:TZhou|Rich]]<sup>[[User talk:TZhou|(talk page)]]</sup> ''aka Lt.Cmdr. Rahman/MCpt. Kadosh'' 20:20, 2 April 2013 (UTC)

== LOAs on Roster Page ==
Here's my new PNPC for Amity, the merchant/craftsman Lorqui Kansatsu-sha. Here's the link to his bio


Hi there, Deliera! I put the LOAs back on the Avandar roster page because we want that information to be available when it is transcluded into the larger [[Fleet Roster]] for easier personnel tracking purposes (since the Fleet Roster now serves in the same capacity as the UPDS for the general membership). By having the LOA info on the main roster page (and thus the Fleet Roster page), members can easily verify their LOA remains current. –[[User:TZhou|Rich]]<sup>[[User talk:TZhou|(talk page)]]</sup> ''aka Lt.Cmdr. Rahman/MCpt. Kadosh'' 16:14, 2 December 2013 (CST)

:Also, you or someone on your crew can help expand the functionality of this feature by noting when the LOA began for the individual member under "Status". Cheers! –[[User:TZhou|Rich]]<sup>[[User talk:TZhou|(talk page)]]</sup> ''aka Lt.Cmdr. Rahman/MCpt. Kadosh'' 16:37, 2 December 2013 (CST)
== Deletion of character page ==


== Face List ==
Hello!


I can't claim all the credit. Someone else on the Garuda crew was keeping an eye on it, and I just updated some more names after they sent an OOC message. I think posting a thread about the Face List is a good idea! –[[User:Rich|Rich]]<sup>[[User talk:Rich|(talk page)]]</sup> ''aka Lt.Cmdr. Rahman'' 13:43, 10 January 2014 (CST)
I would like to ask you, to delete the character page (as well as the corresponding ID page) for my character Linus Dahlquist (https://wiki.starbase118.net/wiki/index.php?title=Linus_Dahlquist). I decided to change the gender and therefore also the name of my character to Lina Dahlquist. That wiki page has already been created. So the original page that was created after my graduation is no longer needed. Thanks a lot.

They really do look good! I saw the one on [[Sabor]] and had to have one for myself :) [[User:JamesTPau|Lt. JG James]] ([[User talk:JamesTPau|talk]]) 16:58, 10 January 2014 (CST)

Perhaps an easier way to do the rest of the set would be to just make the blank version of the other side and then load the two graphics side by side. –[[User:Rich|Rich]]<sup>[[User talk:Rich|(talk page)]]</sup> ''aka Lt.Cmdr. Rahman'' 17:15, 10 January 2014 (CST)
 
For instance, I've uploaded the gold version. Here it is with the Ensign pip:
 
[[File:01-Ensign-Gold.jpg]][[File:00-Blank-Gold-Flip.jpg]]
 
You can put it into a table or side bar row and just set the background as black to get the same effect.
 
Here's Sabor as a commander for instance, by inserting the following table within the sidebar:
 
<pre>
{|style="background:black; width:100%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"
| style="background:black; height:25px"|[[File:05-Commander-Gold.jpg]]
| style="background:black; height:25px" align="right"|[[File:00-Blank-Gold-Flip.jpg]]
|}
</pre>
 
: Once you make the rest of the blanks I can easily make some templates that people could insert into their sidebar. It'd be as easy to use as [[Template:Age]] and [[Template:USS]] –[[User:Rich|Rich]]<sup>[[User talk:Rich|(talk page)]]</sup> ''aka Lt.Cmdr. Rahman'' 22:37, 10 January 2014 (CST)
::Yeah, I'm expanding the documentation right now, including a handy table of the pips... although it's frustrating that someone mislabeled the crewman pips and didn't name the marine rank pips in the same fashion, so until they get converted, we can't use them for now. Or unless I make another template, but... –[[User:Rich|Rich]]<sup>[[User talk:Rich|(talk page)]]</sup> ''aka Lt.Cmdr. Rahman'' 00:09, 11 January 2014 (CST)
:::No, they're in the wrong file format. They are currently png's and need to be jpg's like the others. If we do convert them, we should make sure they follow the similar naming scheme and that the current mislabeled crewmen pips are also renamed.–[[User:Rich|Rich]]<sup>[[User talk:Rich|(talk page)]]</sup> ''aka Lt.Cmdr. Rahman'' 00:13, 11 January 2014 (CST)
::::By all means. –[[User:Rich|Rich]]<sup>[[User talk:Rich|(talk page)]]</sup> ''aka Lt.Cmdr. Rahman'' 00:19, 11 January 2014 (CST)
:::::Actually, use the same file names as [[Starfleet Rank Index: Marines|these, just with jpg instead of png]].–[[User:Rich|Rich]]<sup>[[User talk:Rich|(talk page)]]</sup> ''aka Lt.Cmdr. Rahman'' 00:27, 11 January 2014 (CST)
::::::Before you convert any others, when you move the page or upload a new version, can you make sure to upload it to the new name format. Otherwise, we'll have to go back and fix all the double redirects. –[[User:Rich|Rich]]<sup>[[User talk:Rich|(talk page)]]</sup> ''aka Lt.Cmdr. Rahman'' 00:50, 11 January 2014 (CST)
::::::Sorry if I was unclear. I had meant use the same file name convention as the ones in that table. So:
*M11-FldMrshl-Green.jpg
*M10-Genl-Green.jpg
*M09-LtGen-Green.jpg
*M08-MjrGen-Green.jpg
*M07-BrigGen-Green.jpg

*ME5-Sgt-Green.jpg

*ME3-LCpl-Green.jpg
*ME2-Pvt1st-Green.jpg
*ME1-Pvt-Green.jpg
 
==Don't bother with the Marine pip==
Meh, you really don't need to convert them all and rename them if it's too much trouble. The whole idea of the template was to reduce your workload after all! :D If a marine really wants to do the 2 collar thing, they can just do it the long way as I originally posted above. That is:
<pre>
{|style="background:black; width:100%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"
| style="background:black; height:25px"|[[File:G2-e8.png]]
| style="background:black; height:25px" align="right"|[[File:00-Blank-Green-Flip.jpg]]
|}
</pre>
Which would give:
{|style="background:black; width:100%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"
| style="background:black; height:25px"|[[File:G2-e8.png]]
| style="background:black; height:25px" align="right"|[[File:00-Blank-Green-Flip.jpg]]
|}
It might just be worth it to fix the crewman pips though. –[[User:Rich|Rich]]<sup>[[User talk:Rich|(talk page)]]</sup> ''aka Lt.Cmdr. Rahman'' 01:13, 11 January 2014 (CST)
::Yay! Okay, I'm off to bed... take a look at the template documentation now: [[Template:2collar]] See if it makes sense and feel free to add whatever notes you want. –[[User:Rich|Rich]]<sup>[[User talk:Rich|(talk page)]]</sup> ''aka Lt.Cmdr. Rahman'' 01:36, 11 January 2014 (CST)

== FL Updates ==
 
I think there's a way we could make it so you'd only have to update the main roster, including adding avatar information, and then have it so it only shows up on the face list and not the ship roster page or fleet roster. Just gotta figure out the code. :P –[[User:Rich|Rich]]<sup>[[User talk:Rich|(talk page)]]</sup> ''aka Lt.Cmdr. Rahman'' 03:19, 6 March 2014 (CST)
 
==Recent Changes Stalking==
 
I don't do it on purpose, but I do it. A lot of the time, I forget to add the summary if it is one of my pages. If it's someone else's, I try to add one before I touch the code.

And if you're curious how it's done, it uses the transform CSS property as documented [http://www.w3schools.com/cssref/css3_pr_transform.asp here]:

== Step by step how to crop ==
 
1. Find your image. Example: [[:File:TristamCore3.jpg]].
: Normally, if we put in <nowiki>[[File:TristamCore3.jpg|150px]]</nowiki>, we get
:[[File:TristamCore3.jpg|150px]]
 
:However, what if I want to make a perfect square 150x150 crop of this image? Use [[Template:Crop]].
 
2. Type <nowiki>{{Crop|Name of File|New Width|New Height}}</nowiki>
:So, we'd put in <nowiki>{{Crop|TristamCore3.jpg|150|150}}</nowiki>, to get
:{{Crop|TristamCore3.jpg|150|150}}
 
You can further adjust the position of the crop or the zoom as outlined in the [[Template:Crop|instructions for Template:Crop]] or add a link= to the image.
 
For instance, if we type in
<pre>{{Crop|TristamCore3.jpg|150|150|10|30|2}}</pre>
it gives you
{{Crop|TristamCore3.jpg|150|150|10|30|2}}
 
which is a cropped image of Tristan 150 px in width x 150 px in height with an adjustment of 10 pixels up and 30 pixels to the left to center his head and 2x zoom of the original cropped image.
 
Adding a link= to that can make the image link to his profile:
<pre>{{Crop|TristamCore3.jpg|150|150|10|30|2|link=Core, Tristam}}</pre>
 
{{Crop|TristamCore3.jpg|150|150|10|30|2|link=Core, Tristam}}

:Tried doing this for my PNPC {{n|Carter|Greyson}}. Works fine in my sandbox but for some reason when I previewed the changes it threw the entire bottom half out of whack regardless of what I did.

Deletion of character page

Hello!

I would like to ask you, to delete the character page (as well as the corresponding ID page) for my character Linus Dahlquist (https://wiki.starbase118.net/wiki/index.php?title=Linus_Dahlquist). I decided to change the gender and therefore also the name of my character to Lina Dahlquist. That wiki page has already been created. So the original page that was created after my graduation is no longer needed. Thanks a lot. Vanessa Driscoll (talk) 20:02, 14 April 2023 (UTC)
