Welcome to the FTB Wiki
Hello RealSketch, welcome to the FTB Wiki. When making edits please be sure to include an edit summary. Edit summaries are helpful for people trying to view an article's history. Thank you, --  Satanic Santa Staff•talk•SysOp 00:28, 19 February 2014 (GMT)
 * There are a couple things I need to let you know. First, this is the second time that I have told you to use Edit Summaries; please do so. Secondly, all pages must include an infobox, as stated in the Article Creation Guideline, "Creating articles without infoboxes when needed will always result in a warning. Repeated violations will result in a block." I recommend reading that to avoid future warnings (yes, this is a warning). --  Satanic Santa SysOp•talk 00:04, 8 March 2014 (GMT)
 * I just realized I should probably tell you which page I am talking about; your edits on Dye Trees violated terms. --  Satanic Santa SysOp•talk 00:05, 8 March 2014 (GMT)
 * Wow! I am really forgetful right now! I must be tired... You also forgot to include Categories, and a Langbar, these are required parts of all articles. --  Satanic Santa SysOp•talk 00:07, 8 March 2014 (GMT)


 * Hi SatanicSanta, sorry I haven't been replying, I'm finding wiki code just a bit difficult. I really do want to help but I need to take a tutorial on this stuff. :) - RealSketch (talk) 19:36, 18 April 2014 (BST)RealSketch


 * no worries. I recommend taking a look at other pages for reference until you understand it. Witchery pages are a good example. Templates always have documentation, so be sure to read up on those. --  Satanic Santa SysOp•talk 21:00, 18 April 2014 (BST)

Adv Genetics tiles
Hey, so could you get me the Advanced Genetics images? Follow the image uploading guideline for how to get them. --  Satanic Santa Admin • Editor  18:30, 13 June 2014 (BST)

I'll try, still fairly new. But I'm sure I'll be fine. :) --RealSketch (talk) 18:34, 13 June 2014 (BST)RealSketch
 * Specifically the grid images section. -- Padfoote (talk) 18:41, 13 June 2014 (BST)

I've got the items done, the blocks I'll get done hopefully soon. --SNIP-- --RealSketch (talk) 18:42, 13 June 2014 (BST)RealSketch
 * Working on it now ;) --  Satanic Santa Admin • Editor  00:01, 14 June 2014 (BST)

Tilesheet is done. You'll be able to see it when either clear your caches/cookies, or hard refresh. --  Satanic Santa Admin • Editor  06:07, 15 June 2014 (BST)

Are you interested in joining the team? --  Satanic Santa Admin • Editor  22:45, 14 June 2014 (BST)

Wow, so soon?! Before I say anything, do you truly believe I know enough WikiMarkup, information about mods and how to use the Wiki? --RealSketch (talk) 22:50, 14 June 2014 (BST)RealSketch
 * Yeah. You know just about as much as Padfoote. If you have any questions just ask me or Retep. Hell, I'm still learning how to use the OreDict and Translation Extensions. --  Satanic Santa Admin • Editor  01:35, 15 June 2014 (BST)

Just a hint
By the way, you don't need to do Things. You can just do Things, and it will work the same way. I find it to be slightly easier and quicker, and will also save a few bytes on the server, I mean, we still have like 15GB of space left IIRC, but still :P --  Satanic Santa Admin • Editor  19:02, 17 June 2014 (BST)

Will do. :) --RealSketch (talk) 19:06, 17 June 2014 (BST)RealSketch
 * Also, your signature is derping. --  Satanic Santa Admin • Editor  20:30, 18 June 2014 (BST)

Derping as in?...--RealSketch (talk) 20:39, 18 June 2014 (BST)RealSketch
 * You have your name after the wiki signature and timestamp. -- Padfoote Staff • Talk • Contributions 20:42, 18 June 2014 (BST)

Hmmm, fixes? --* RealSketch *  Talk 20:49, 18 June 2014 (BST)

XD I kept putting my username after adding the signature. So it would overlap. -- RealSketch Talk 20:54, 18 June 2014 (BST)

Question
What do you capitalise and what don't you? Some pages it's nouns, others it's links, and in some nothing is. Is there any definite policy?  Chocohead Nag • Contributions 22:53, 24 June 2014 (BST)


 * Blocks, items and official names all need capitals, and of course, users should use proper grammar when writing. Whatever the mod author names the item or block is what we name it. Non key-words are an exception in some cases though.


 * About the nouns, links etc.
 * It all comes down to the user. I for one capitalize all words in a section header, but others may just capitalize it like a sentence, as long as the information is correct and appropriate, then it's fine.
 * As far as I know, there is no specific policy for capitalization, though guidelines on headings and articles can be found on the Manual of Style.

 * Hope I cleared some things up for you. :)

 * The way I handle things is by going with standard English grammar rules. The exception being for links, blocks, items, entities, mods, etc, where I will capitalize them to help make them stand out (and because OCD). Hope this helps. -- Padfoote Staff • Talk • Contributions 02:15, 25 June 2014 (BST)
 * Okay, here's the actual answer. Links should be capitalized if they are the title of an article, item, block, etc. Sections should be capitalized as if they were in a sentence, unless it is a quote of something else. Article titles should be capitalized as if they are a title, or whatever the exact in-game name is (seems obvious, and I'm changing the MOS right now because it says the wrong thing, and the article title of itself breaks that rule. I can't honestly think of an article that follows that rule). Don't un-capitalize a link unless you are changing the name of it (for example, you wouldn't say railcraft in a sentence, but you would say the mod that expands on rail functionality). --  SatanicSanta Talk • Contribs 02:38, 25 June 2014 (BST)
