Hey,(sorry for bugging you so much) I made the <nowiki>{{User Human|Template}}</nowiki> that needs images, but it's pretty good.

== Duplicate pages ==
 
Hello, I have discovered two duplicates pages on the wiki today. Can you delete ''Portal 2 Chapter 3 Test Chamber 09'' (duplicate of [[Portal 2 Chapter 3 Test Chamber 9]]) and ''Portal 2 Act 1 Test Chamber 06/ru'' (duplicate of [[Portal 2 Chapter 1 Test Chamber 6/ru]]) ? Thanks. :) [[User:Aquatikelfik|Aquatikelfik]] 12:43, 17 November 2011 (UTC)
:Thanks [[User:i-ghost|i-ghost]], sorry for distrubing Wind. [[User:Aquatikelfik|Aquatikelfik]] 16:52, 17 November 2011 (UTC)
 
== Implementing TF2 Wiki-styled merchandise pricing ==
 
I've added all the needed templates (as seen here: [[User:Sven/Sandbox]]), added all the current prices of the merchandise to the pricing page ([http://theportalwiki.com/wiki/Template:Dictionary/price#merchandises here]), and am ready to update the [[Merchandise]] page itself. However, every item will reference a template (as seen in my sandbox) that needs to be created by a bot. Could you be kind enough to order WindBOT to push the changes from the pricing page to the necessary template pages? Much appreciated in advance. [[User:Sven|Sven]] 17:05, 18 November 2011 (UTC)
: WindBOT should get around to that automatically.  I think he runs on a ~10 minute interval, although he might get clogged up with some other tasks so there may be a slight delay.  He should make those pages anyway. - [[User:RJackson|RJ]][[File:User RJackson Pixelturret.png|link=User:RJackson|top]] [[User talk:RJackson|<sup><span style="background:#C0DFFF;padding:0 2px;">talk</span></sup>]] 17:09, 18 November 2011 (UTC)
::Okey-dokey then. Thanks a lot RJackson for the quick answer. *goes to twiddle thumbs for about 10 minutes* [[User:Sven|Sven]] 17:10, 18 November 2011 (UTC)
 
== Comics nav ==
 
I'm sorry! I didn't notice that the comics were already covered in the Community Nav! Forgive me! [[User:Sven|Sven]] 00:49, 25 December 2011 (UTC)
:Never! You shall die into the Aperture Science Emergency Intelligence Incinerator >:3
:Nah but the comics list is getting sizeable. One or two more comics and it will probably be worth it to make it into its own nav — [[User:WindPower|Wind]] 00:51, 25 December 2011 (UTC)
 
== hello ==
 
Hello to you too. Thanks for the welcome. --[[User:Tschumann|Tschumann]] 10:18, 16 February 2012 (UTC)
 
Thanks for the welcome as well! [[User:Unremarkable|Unremarkable]] 17:11, 25 April 2012 (UTC)
 
== Atlas and P-body articles ==
 
Since Atlas and P-body experience through the same events in co-op, wouldn't it be a better idea to have the two characters merged into one article like the Combine Overwiki did? Though I don't mind having two different character articles, just saying that it would be simpler and sort of more effective and on the go for readers. [[User:Illiterate Bilingual|Illiterate Bilingual]] 23:04, 24 February 2012 (UTC)
:I wouldn't mind but I wouldn't push for it either. Do what you want or ask someone else or the central discussion~ — [[User:WindPower|Wind]] 06:47, 25 February 2012 (UTC)
 
== Regarding the recent "The Underground" addition, I'd like a precedent  ==
 
The addition of the Machinima series makes me wonder how each "non-canon" article (such as The Underground, gameplay mods if they have unique characters, minor characters in Lab Rat) should/will be handled in the future. I'd normally take some examples from the TF2 Wiki, but as the TF2 Wiki doesn't seem to have this issue (no Machinima articles that I'm aware of) and the additional fact that we're a bit starved for content (I mean, Portal and P2 aren't exactly updated weekly...), I have no idea what to do. I don't want this place to get that "most of the page is pictures" feel that the OverWiki has.... Any advice? Would a "Non-Canon Character Nav" or something similar be enough? Or even help? [[User:Sven|~Sven~]] 19:22, 31 March 2012 (UTC)
:[http://theportalwiki.com/w/index.php?title=The_Underground&action=historysubmit&diff=50499&oldid=50443 This] should alleviate such concerns :3 — [[User:WindPower|Wind]] 19:42, 31 March 2012 (UTC)

== Image from a Portal 2 dev ==
 
If I were to, say, get a HUGE image of a character from a Portal 2 developer (say.... Richard Lord, for instance), what would I upload that as? What license? [[User:Sven|~Sven~]] 07:32, 11 April 2012 (UTC)

:::We have a mutual friend on Facebook. Got a reply within a few day's time. I originally was asking for an in-modelviewer image of the Animal King turret, but apparently there ''is'' no in-game model.

Thank you
 
--[[User:Secondhand Work|Secondhand Work]] 14:25, 1 May 2012 (UTC)
:Well first you join and lurk on the [[IRC channel]], and then eventually it happens. You've made about 20 edits so far so I wouldn't say you're "very experinced" yet...

== Requesting permission to borrow (ie: Steal) select images from this wiki ==
 
Due to the generally HQ of the images provided by this Wiki, I humbly request permission to make use of some of them on my community's mapping Wiki (Example page here: [http://myapertureinnovations.com/wiki/index.php?title=Aperture_Science_Security_Camera Right here]). I realize I technically don't *have* to ask for the images, but as an act of good faith, I'd like to. [[User:Sven|~Sven~]] ([[User talk:Sven|talk]]) 21:20, 17 May 2012 (UTC)
:That's fine as long as you respect the license on each image, and the license of the content ([https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/ CC-BY-3.0], which basically just means you should mention where the stuff is from). But you do know there's [https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Category:Portal_2_Level_Design quite a large section for that at the VDC], right?) — [[User:WindPower|Wind]] 21:24, 17 May 2012 (UTC)
::I *personally* am aware of that. It would seem that the other members of the (admittedly small) community (around 10 or so right now [the forum isn't done, itself]) want to venture into BIGGER things, and that apparently includes a wiki as well. Majority rules in favor of the wiki, and as such, we (apparently) are doing that. Thank you Wind. :D [[User:Sven|~Sven~]] ([[User talk:Sven|talk]]) 21:30, 17 May 2012 (UTC)
:::May I suggest the option of creating a mapping section on this wiki then? Would solve the hassle of copying stuff around (but I'm probably making this suggestion too late) — [[User:WindPower|Wind]] 21:33, 17 May 2012 (UTC)
::::I'll mention it to everyone. :) And it's not too late; our host has said that we have infinite space as long as we pay the monthly fee, but since our wiki is still very much in infancy (hell, it's a ZYGOTE right now), we'd lose next to nothing I suppose. I'll mention it to them and see what they say. You sir, deserve all the science awards for your kindness. [[User:Sven|~Sven~]] ([[User talk:Sven|talk]]) 22:54, 17 May 2012 (UTC)

== Spam Account ==
It would seem this account needs blocking Windness:

I blanked the page for the time being.
I would have blocked them myself, but it would appear I lack permissions to do so.

== Insane amount of userpages ==
 
Hey there, so when i found out that you can have multiple userpages simply by having them named User:your username here/page name here (for example, User:WindPower/My Pages) i started making userpages like crazy, even starting a text game on the Portal wiki, called Party Escort Beans Enrichment Center, and then i asked myself: Is there a limit to userpages? Will moderators delete your userpages if you have too much? And since i cannot figure it out by myself, i would like to know if there is a userpage creation limit. [[User:Party Escort Bot &#61; Beans|The Portal Player that discovered the Party Escort Bot is a pack of beans]] ([[User talk:Party Escort Bot &#61; Beans|talk]]) 13:10, 8 April 2015 (UTC)
:There is no limit as long as it stays reasonable size-wise (for example if you have more than 50000 pages with 100 kilobytes of text each, it becomes ~5 megabytes which is fine, but something like 50000000 pages would be ~5 gigabytes and that's not fine).
:Also:
:* There's also no need for the notice about potential deletion of the page because of the DISPLAYTITLE trick, your userpages won't be deleted just because they use DISPLAYTITLE.
:* You may find [[Special:PrefixIndex/User:Party Escort Bot = Beans]] useful if you start losing track of all the pages you have.
:Hope this helps~ — [[User:WindPower|Wind]] 15:22, 8 April 2015 (UTC)
::Okay thanks, about the notice for potential deletion, it's because i'm worrying about people saying things such as "Oh this page is named Party Escort Bot = Beans voice lines i'll delete it cuz there's no one called Party Escort Bot = Beans in Portal and Portal 2" when the page is actually named User:Party Escort Bot = Beans/Party Escort Bot = Beans voice lines. <small>— ''The preceding unsigned comment was added by'' '''[[User:Party Escort Bot = Beans|Party Escort Bot = Beans]]''' ([[User talk:Party Escort Bot = Beans|talk]]) • ([[Special:Contributions/Party Escort Bot = Beans|contribs]]) </small>
 
== Portal 2 Chapter 10 ==
 
On the page [[Portal 2 Chapter 10 Test Chamber 0]], you mention that Portal 2 has no chapter 10. Actually, the ending sequence/video/cutscene where you rise to the surface is considered as Chapter 10 by the game, so... yeah. But since i couldn't find a page specifically for the ending sequence, i decided just to redirect it to Portal 2. <small>— ''The preceding unsigned comment was added by'' '''[[User:Party Escort Bot = Beans|Party Escort Bot = Beans]]''' ([[User talk:Party Escort Bot = Beans|talk]]) • ([[Special:Contributions/Party Escort Bot = Beans|contribs]]) </small>
:Maybe it can link to [[Turret Opera]]. — [[User:WindPower|Wind]] 05:58, 11 April 2015 (UTC)
::Okay, i'll make it link to the Turret Opera. By the way, it's definitely confirmed that there IS a chapter 10, as when you complete the game and click "New game", you see Chapter 10 unlocked. If you click it, you will be sent to the ending video.

== Thank you for assuming the party escort submission position ==
 
I asked this question on YouTube.
I asked this question on [[Talk:Party Escort Bot|the Party Escort Bot's talk page]].
I googled this question.
I asked it to a lot of Portal fans.
I searched everywhere for a download.
 
Still no answer.
Still no result.
Still no download.
 
So now i got an idea:
 
I will ask this question on WindPower's page.
He '''always''' replies to me.
So i will finally get an answer.
A result.
A download.
 
HERE IS THE QUESTION THAT REMAINED UNANSWERED FOR... A LONG TIME:
 
=== The Question ===
 
Do you know where i could download the "Thank you for assuming the party escort submission position" dialog (without the background sounds)?
 
Yeah. Such a simple. Simplistic question. That remained unanswered. It's like i asked what number comes after 999,999,999.2591525. (to be honest, it's actually simple, as the answer is 999,999,999.2591526) So do you know where i could download that dialog?

=== The Answer? ===
 
Put your answer here:
:Sorry, I have no idea. It's in the game audio files somewhere. If you find out, make sure to [[Special:Upload|upload it on the wiki]]. It may be part of the whole audio file that plays in the ending sequence, in which case there's no way to get the background-less version of it without asking Valve to provide it separately. — [[User:WindPower|Wind]] 23:30, 26 April 2015 (UTC)
::I saw your message and rushed to Portal to find out. Apparently the outside sounds DO NOT include the Party Escort Bot's voice: the Party Escort Bot's voice is "ai_outro_voice" or something similar. I will try to upload it as soon as possible. [[User:Party Escort Bot &#61; Beans|The Portal Player that discovered the Party Escort Bot is a pack of beans]] ([[User talk:Party Escort Bot &#61; Beans|talk]]) 11:57, 27 April 2015 (UTC)
::Where do you find the voice lines for Portal? I tried in sound/vo/aperture_ai and all the files were empty.
 
== Portal Wiki... 9999999 later (according to the Announcer) ==
 
Okay, it's me once again, this time it's not a question, well you know '''IT IS''' a question, but not about Portal or the Party Escort Bot or userpages. So i was bored, and then i got this idea in my head, and created '''this''' image, and i just needed someone to tell me if it was good or not.

== Wiki creator? ==
 
Hi, just asking, who created this wiki? At first i thought it was [[User:RJackson|RJackson]]...
 
...but, since '''you''' made him a moderator, that doesn't work.
 
So i thought about [[User:I-ghost|I-ghost]]...
 
...that didn't work either.
 
And now i'm starting to believe that it's '''you'''! So, did you?

== Hello ==
Hello WindPower, I from Dota 2 Wiki. Can you please reborn WindBOT? It's stop working long time ago... Or shortly teach us how to make another bot, on Windows, to make same functions plus others. Please, we need your help. [[User:Medok|Medok]] ([[User talk:Medok|talk]]) 15:48, 19 September 2015 (UTC)
:The bot's IP was banned from dota2.gamepedia.com in the cloudflare control panel. There's nothing I can do until that goes away. — [[User:WindPower|Wind]] 20:39, 19 September 2015 (UTC)
::I already unblock it. Permanent blocks can be unblocked only with reban, I ban WindBOT for 2 hours and block disappears. Now you can do that. :D [[User:Medok|Medok]] ([[User talk:Medok|talk]]) 21:00, 19 September 2015 (UTC)
::This isn't a ban from the wiki, it's a ban at the HTTP level.

== Co-op Demos ==
 
Hey wind, I know it's been a few years.
I'm looking at updating the Portal 2 [[User:Arrran Weeviling/Projects|Co-op Video walkthroughs]] and adding the reamining ones.
I'm just wondering if putting up the demos would be useful, I've got both Atlas and P-body perspectives.
I've done the entire co-op campaign, but I'm going to redo a few that I feel dragged on excessively.
I can post a google drive link because I can't post them directly here due to filesize.
Wow that was a lot of words. [[User:Arrran Weeviling|Arrran Weeviling]] ([[User talk:Arrran Weeviling|talk]])
:That sounds great, but it would be even better if they were on the wiki. I'm happy to bump up the max file size, let me know how large they get. — [[User:WindPower|Wind]] 04:23, 24 April 2020 (UTC)

== Discord ==
 
Does this wiki use discord? if it does is there a server i can join, since IRC is a hassle to use sometimes, and doesn't keep track of messages. [[User:FreshYoMama|FreshYoMama]] ([[User talk:FreshYoMama|talk]]) 21:29, 14 January 2023 (UTC)
:No Discord, sorry. I tried to set up a Matrix server once, which would solve this problem without the need for relying on a centralized service (Discord), but it didn't really catch on. The larger problem though is that the existing tooling (RC notifications) are on IRC right now and they'd have to be ported to a Discord bot or something first. — [[User:WindPower|Wind]] 06:09, 29 June 2023 (UTC)
 
== Email confirmation is broken ==
 
I'm not sure if you're the correct person to contact about this, but it seems like this wiki isn't able to send a confirmation code to verify the email address I've typed. It seems to me that this is a coding issue with the wiki itself somewhere. Either way, this is the error message when I click the "Mail a confirmation code" via [[Special:ConfirmEmail]]:
 
'''<nowiki>Portal Wiki could not send your confirmation mail. Please check your email address for invalid characters.

If you don't believe me, create a new account with an email address and try to get a confirmation mail sent out.
