User talk:Ostercy

Hi I'm Charlie Donovan, I was a Bureaucrat for this wiki but haven't been on for quite a long time due to my mother's death. The wiki has changed a lot since I was last on and i'm not sure if I still have Bureaucrat rights on here or what's going on...any help appreciated, thanks. I also can't seem to edit my profile page, i can edit my talk page though...so not sure about that either --Donovan-j-charlie 18:05, December 9, 2011 (UTC)

Hi Charlie Donovan,

I'm not sure why you can't edit your profile - it might be worth asking Wikia help? As far as I can tell, you're still a Bureaucrat, whatever that is. However recently somebody made you an Admin with checking with me first, so I reverted that until I knew what was going on. Hope that helps, Ost Ostercy 10:12, December 10, 2011 (UTC)

New Skin?
Hello Ostercy, I was wondering if you would be interested in having a new skin that will reflect the look of the new game? I whipped one up on my own wiki, if you want to see what I had in mind. Also, as an update on my reworking the new game's page, I moved everything that was there to Tomb Raider 2012 News. Let me know! Soldierscuzzy 22:02, December 9, 2011 (UTC)

I'm happy to look at suggestions for a background but I'd prefer if it reflected a bit more broadly the history of the TR franchise dating back to 1997 rather than just the artwork for the latest game (which isn't even out yet). If you have any suggestions for a classic TR skin, let me know. Tomb Raider 2012 News looks OK, although when the actual game comes out we will need a separate page about the game itself and not just the history of the Eidos marketing campaign. Cheers, Ost Ostercy 10:12, December 10, 2011 (UTC)
 * I redid the Tomb Raider 2012 page to reflect the new game, so that is already done. Also, I made a new skin, if you haven't already seen it, on my personal wiki. The link to it is right here, if you want to check it out. Let me know what you think! Thanks! Soldierscuzzy 22:55, December 11, 2011 (UTC)

Yes, I saw your skin previously, and hence my remarks about the skin here. Your skin reflects the very latest game and a frankly unfamilar incarnation of Lara Croft. This Wiki represents the whole of Tomb Raider history. Therefore the existing skin here, although primitive, is much more appropriate for Lara Croft Wikia than your skin, which only reflects TR2012 and the present Eidos marketing campaign. Hope that helps, Ost Ostercy 06:58, December 12, 2011 (UTC)
 * I understand perfectly. If you do want to update the skin at a later date, feel free to let me know, and I can make you one! Soldierscuzzy 18:28, December 12, 2011 (UTC)

Page Renaming
Hi, Ostercy. I had left a message on Donovan-j-charlie's user talk page about I problem I accidently created and there has been no reply. I wonder if it would be possible for you to sort out the page. This is the message I sent to Donovan-j-charlie:

"Donovan-j-charle. I seem to have had some trouble with a page I was renaming. There were two Crocodile enemy pages on this wiki so I transfered the content on one of them onto the other to create one Crocodile page. Then, I decided to rename it to something that does not have an article yet. So I chose Thor's Belt but it said that page already exists so I tried Amulet of Horus instead and that's where it messed up. It is presently called Thor's Belt and redirects from Amulet of Horus which isn't good as a page for the Amulet of Horus will not be able to be created. Would you be able to help to sort out this problem?"

I'll have a look at it. Cheers, Ost Ostercy 06:58, December 12, 2011 (UTC)
