Timeline
Can we actually have the timeline working again so that the text actually shows up on it? :P  Chocohead Nag • Edits • Staff 20:11, 13 December 2014 (UTC)
 * I reported it to Gamepedia people a while ago --  Satanic Santa F T B Wiki Admin 20:34, 13 December 2014 (UTC)

Update
I think someone should update the translation staff, and mark certain ones as inactive, like Andrejsavikin who hasn't done anything in half a year. Xbony2 (talk) 16:34, 1 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Done. --  Satanic Santa F T B Wiki Admin 19:25, 1 January 2015 (UTC)


 * Now it looks kind of sad. We need new translators, lol. Xbony2 (talk) 22:04, 1 January 2015 (UTC)


 * I can translate into British English (en-gb) :P  Chocohead Nag • Edits • Staff 00:22, 2 January 2015 (UTC)


 * Go ahead bro. How much different British English is from Merica' English tho? All I know is chips are different things. Xbony2 (talk) 00:26, 2 January 2015 (UTC)


 * I'll gladly join the team for en_GB and en_PI (English - Pirate for those unacquainted) XD. Also there is a few minor changes; mostly relating to slight differences in spelling.  Wolfman_123_ Wiki Staff ·&#32;(Talk) 01:21, 2 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Now that I’m translating articles and templates to Russian (since January 13), can someone add me to the Russian translation project timeline? –Nick the Red37 Russian Minecraft Wiki mod (talk) 16:54, 14 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Retep? Paladin? Xbony? –Nick the Red37 Russian Minecraft Wiki mod (talk) 10:45, 15 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Nobody has been updating the timeline at all lately. For whatever reason it is actually broken and doesn't seem to render any names. Once the timeline extension is fixed, someone will fill in all the missing information such as staff member changes and translation people. 🐇 R e t e p 9 9 8 🐇🐰 Bunny Overlord 🐰 10:52, 15 January 2015 (UTC)


 * Another thing, Neither Paladin or Xbony (or me) could do anything even if they wanted to, as only admins can actually edit the page.  Chocohead Nag • Edits • Staff 16:01, 15 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Then, why this says the staff members can edit protected pages? –Nick the Red37 Russian Minecraft Wiki mod (talk) 17:24, 15 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Then, why this says the staff members can edit protected pages? –Nick the Red37 Russian Minecraft Wiki mod (talk) 17:24, 15 January 2015 (UTC)


 * Because there's 2 levels of protection:
 * Community - All staff members can edit, but normal users can only view source
 * Sysop - Only and  can edit those pages. The curse staff I expect can too, but they are on very infrequently.
 * Retep and Santa are the only ones who can set the protection on pages too.

 * @: The Timeline is for staff members, not users. I will add you to the Translation project thingy though. --  Satanic Santa F T B Wiki Admin 23:31, 15 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Never mind, it seems someone has already done that :) --  Satanic Santa F T B Wiki Admin 23:32, 15 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Now the timeline looks correct, at least for me. P. S. I added myself to the translators table myself. — Agent Nick the Red37 • t •  c  • ru.MCW user 17:28, 15 February 2015 (UTC)

 * The timeline is used to list people who are staff members that have been voted in. While anyone is free to translate articles, if you want to be a translation staff member and thus on the timeline, then you'll have to create an application at Feed_The_Beast_Wiki:Staff's_Noticeboard/Staff_applications. If your application is accepted, then I'll add you to the timeline. 🐇 R e t e p 9 9 8 🐇🐰 Bunny Overlord 🐰 14:35, 16 February 2015 (UTC)
 * I’m not a member of the FTB forum, plus I also don’t have even Minecraft, let alone any of FTB mods or mod packs (except .jar files for Blood Magic, Witchery, IndustrialCraft 2 and GregTech, but only to get textures from). — Agent Nick the Red37 • t •  c  • ru.MCW user 16:38, 16 February 2015 (UTC)
 * Retep998? — Agent Nick the Red37 • t •  c  • ru.MCW user 16:52, 16 February 2015 (UTC)
 * You don't have to be part of the FTB forum, its just that if someone is on the FTB forums we need to know their name so we can give them the proper titles and stuff. 🐇 R e t e p 9 9 8 🐇🐰 Bunny Overlord 🐰 00:00, 17 February 2015 (UTC)

0 Editors
Should anybody with zero edits really get credit? No offense or anything, but it looks like they didn't really do anything. It might be a glitch with the recent Curse integration though. Xbony2 (talk) 23:34, 17 February 2015 (UTC)
 * There were people who didn't do anything, and just disappeared. Guess crediting them doesn't hurt, at least they said they'd help over the thousands who won't even do that.  Chocohead Nag • Edits • Staff 23:51, 17 February 2015 (UTC)


 * This actually goes back to pre-Curse. Back in the day, translators could not actually translate directly on the wiki. I believe this is true for some editors. There's also the chance that we are getting their usernames wrong, but we can't know for sure because they don't hang around anymore. --  Satanic Santa F T B Wiki Admin 01:25, 18 February 2015 (UTC)

Luxim
I think it's safe to mark Luxim and the french project as inactive. He hasn't done any translating in a month.

Btw, maybe a certain time period could be set to determine if a member has been inactive. I suggest a month. -Xbony2 (talk) 11:48, 19 April 2015 (UTC)
