I gather...
I gather you've disposed of those idiots, Klow. Your reputation, sir, is well deserved. JgcxCub 20:50, November 3, 2009 (UTC)
 * Yeah, and I'm sad it wasn't done already before I got back. Klow 21:00, November 3, 2009 (UTC)

blured images
Since you moved the one I was testing, do you have another (preferably large, and not just text) image that is still being displayed as "blurry"? --Uberfuzzy 22:01, November 3, 2009 (UTC)
 * Ah sorry. This one: File:Security guards complete.jpg Although it is ok within pages, it is not with the big thumbnail when clicked on (at least with my settings). Third thumb here: Petroleum Station, red name here: Dock 137 (in the infobox on the upper right and 8th in the gallery. Klow 22:47, November 3, 2009 (UTC)

File deleted
Why did you deleted Image:Day_One_Battery.png? What did I do wrong? :-(
 * Don't forget to sign. You did nothing wrong, but a SDK like screenshot was better. Take a look at Special:NewFiles. Thanks for the find, I actually didn't know about it, and that made me find that the Long Jump Module had the same model in red. ;-) Klow 09:23, November 4, 2009 (UTC)
 * What are talking about? --Fireman V2 00:33, November 28, 2009 (UTC)

Palace of Soviets
Have you read about the Palace of Soviets on wikipedia? Malekron 00:41, November 4, 2009 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I know about it. But the Skyscraper is based on the Palace of Culture and Science in Warsaw. But the Consul statue might come from that, though. Klow 09:24, November 4, 2009 (UTC)

Civil Protection
Klow, why did you revert my edits on the other names for Civil Protection? I mean, look at the OSIPR page. It has numerous other names, including the nickname for it. So why did you remove this? I mean, even the citizens refer to them as CPs! JgcxCub 11:41, November 8, 2009 (UTC)
 * WTF? All the terms you added are already in the introduction, with contexts and sources. What else do you want? Klow 19:57, November 8, 2009 (UTC)

Valve's answering machine

This is real, BTW. Darkman 4 08:09, November 9, 2009 (UTC)


 * LOL! :D Klow 09:24, November 9, 2009 (UTC)

Need a little help here!
Vandal is vandalising "Gordon Freeman" page. I'm currently keeping watch on it. 220.255.4.28 13:45, November 9, 2009 (UTC)
 * Thanks for that, the loser is now blocked. He can come back, I'm waiting. ;-) Klow 14:00, November 9, 2009 (UTC)

Crowbar article
Hey Klow, i redid the Crowbar page. Cleaned it up, split up the overview section into 2 parts in accordance with the guidelines, and generally made it a bit more pleasing to the eye. Could you have a look at it and tell me if there is anything i can improve, so that we can get rid of the cleanup sign? Thanks, JgcxCub 19:23, November 10, 2009 (UTC)
 * Thanks for that, I added the "review pending" status in the list! Klow 21:12, November 10, 2009 (UTC)

Look at this
Wow just see what 203.147.4.68 did. Malekron 20:54, November 12, 2009 (UTC)
 * Yeah, spam. Deleted, and blocked. Klow 21:43, November 12, 2009 (UTC)

And another vandal 69.3.212.33. Malekron 01:27, November 13, 2009 (UTC)

Half Life Ep3
Gabe Newell posted a update on his twitter. --Chairman Jack the Black 14:28, November 16, 2009 (UTC)
 * http://twitter.com/GabeNewell
 * Wait, he is talking about an upcoming Ep3 trailer? Is that his real account?... Klow 14:32, November 16, 2009 (UTC)
 * Someone just said its fake account. Never mind.


 * http://kotaku.com/5394725/fake-gabe-newell---show-yourself :( --Chairman Jack the Black 14:33, November 16, 2009 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I just read that. And the spelling mistakes hint a 15 year old retard (no offense if you are 15). Klow 14:43, November 16, 2009 (UTC)
 * Sorry to waste your time.--Chairman Jack the Black 14:45, November 16, 2009 (UTC)
 * It's ok. If it had been real, I'd have been very thankful. ;-) Also, could you remove that broken image link from your signature? Klow 14:47, November 16, 2009 (UTC)

Re: Welcome
Thanks for the welcome! 86.3.61.125 17:56, November 19, 2009 (UTC)

Aperture Science Material Emancipation Grill or Grid?
Yes the article Aperture Science Material Emancipation Grill was renamed by me to Aperture Science Material Emancipation Grid. This is because ingame it is called a grid...but it is also called a grill. I don't know what to make of it, I think it was a dev error. What do you think we should do about the article? Use grid or grill?-- YabbaMyIcing Talk 06:15, November 24, 2009 (UTC)


 * Ah damn. And audio and subtitles match together. It's said differently twice, and writter differently twice. Let's use "Grid", it's actually more logical. Klow 09:54, November 24, 2009 (UTC)

Sirens
I was looking for siren sounds in the SDK, and I realized that a lot of unusual ambient noises are actually sirens. For instance, those deep, repetitive noises in Red Letter Day, that interrupt kleiner's HEV speech. It also seems that they're sent from the Citadel.

I also noticed that a vort was to remove the Buggy's Tau cannon. (It has an unused script entity, check that out) --Fireman V2 00:32, November 28, 2009 (UTC)

Re: Widelogo1.png
A long time ago, before the Monaco skin existed, Wikia used a default skin called Quartz, which used a 266x75 logo. That image I made was a possible logo for the wiki back then. Feel free to delete it. JoePlay ( talk ) 23:41, December 1, 2009 (UTC)
 * Thanks for that quick answer. I actually just restored it, to showcase the wiki's logo history. Are you the one who made this and this, then?... Klow 23:44, December 1, 2009 (UTC)
 * Those two links are broken, so I can't see which images you're asking about. =( JoePlay ( talk ) 19:04, December 2, 2009 (UTC)
 * Ah damn I forgot. Fixed. This and this. Klow 19:08, December 2, 2009 (UTC)
 * No, I did not make those two images. JoePlay ( talk ) 20:45, December 2, 2009 (UTC)
 * Ok thanks! Klow 20:46, December 2, 2009 (UTC)

Consul
I think that the Consul may be based on the Roman Consuls (in which two consul that has veto power) and also the overall Combine politics (Breen and the Advisors) are sort of based on it don't you think. Malekron 22:49, December 2, 2009 (UTC)
 * I think you got a good point there. Klow 23:05, December 2, 2009 (UTC)

Hammer page ready for review
Valve Hammer Editor‎‎ Darkman 4 05:06, December 3, 2009 (UTC)
 * Ok! Klow 10:57, December 3, 2009 (UTC)

Fleshing out
I expanded on the M202A1 FLASH, M2 Browning Machine Gun and M198 Howitzer pages. Looks good? Darkman 4 08:32, December 3, 2009 (UTC)
 * Lemme see! Klow 10:57, December 3, 2009 (UTC)

Interesting entity
In hl_ent.hlp, an entity called "info_player_coop" is listed. To me, this hints that HL1 was supposed to have coop at one time. Darkman 4 08:44, December 3, 2009 (UTC)
 * I guess they worked from that for Decay. Klow 10:57, December 3, 2009 (UTC)

Fun Fact about the Source engine
http://www.gamespot.com/pc/action/teamfortress2boa/news.html?sid=2592192

It seems that the Source engine was confirmed as being worked as early as 2000. Darkman 4 09:35, December 4, 2009 (UTC)
 * Here's the source article: http://web.archive.org/web/20000711003629/http://www.playnow.com.au/features/e3_00/content/valve_borg/index2.asp Add this! :P Klow 10:53, December 4, 2009 (UTC)

Stuff
ok...i WILL stop but im just trying to share easter eggs, and info wich issnt allready in the articles...btw: if you werent some administrator or something im pretty sure what you said could be seen as offensive...wich would not be allowed on a site like this Hengara 01:45, December 6, 2009 (UTC)


 * Please sign your comments with the 4 "~", and use a new title when you start a new conversation. I didn't mean to be offensive, I was just direct. Very bad spelling is as much a nuisance as vandalism (and at least some acts of vandalism can be funny - before being reverted, while bad spelling is not funny at all). This place is not a random notepad when one throws their thoughts as they come, this is an encyclopedia maintained by dedicated human beings, not random anonymous things, who try to make a difference. There are style rules and other such things to take into account. So please respect our work when you add yours. Telling you to stop was not to be taken literally. Just make an effort to facilitate the tasks of those who care about good English and mature writing and try to maintain a consistent wiki. Klow 01:56, December 5, 2009 (UTC)


 * ok i see what you mean...if i post anything again i'll check the spelling next time and im not sure about this but when you say "not a random notepad when one throws their thoughts" are you refering to such as when i added that Gordon and Alyx were going to deliver a message in white forrest?Hengara 10:14, December 5, 2009 (UTC)


 * Please sign your comments! When I say this, I mean you have to give a proper encyclopedic shape to the stuff you want to add. You don't say "in half life 2, gordon must reach the citadel" but "In Half-Life 2, Gordon must reach the Citadel." I don't know if you get me, but that's not that complicated. Klow 09:41, December 5, 2009 (UTC)


 * Yeah i think i get it now. anyways i will think more through before i add anything else unless it is to my own page. Hengara 10:13, December 5, 2009 (UTC)


 * And no need to add your name to the 4 "~", it's all automatic. ;-) Klow 11:40, December 5, 2009 (UTC)


 * Oh ok well anyways...sorry for the troubble Hengara 15:36, December 5, 2009 (UTC)


 * I don't know if you use Firefox, but personally I use a spell checker that can be very helpful. Klow 22:51, December 5, 2009 (UTC)


 * Yes i use Firefox and where can i find this spell checker? do i have to download it? if i do i dont think i should getit cause my computer is abit slow...well in english classes i often do a good job but when im on the internett i dont know maybe my brain turn off or somethingHengara 15:16, December 6, 2009 (UTC)


 * And again, you forgot to sign! The spell checker is light, don't worry. You'll find it here. Choose any English variant you want, since I don't you where you come from. However we tend to use American English here, as the English used within the HL universe is that type of English. Klow 02:03, December 6, 2009 (UTC)


 * Ah...sorry for that. Well yeah it makes sence that we use American here. well thanks for the linkHengara 16:05, December 7, 2009 (UTC)


 * Sign! Sign! Sign! Sign! Klow 20:54, December 6, 2009 (UTC)


 * WHAT?...well now i KNOW i signed it...i used four "~" im sure i did...Hengara 16:05, December 7, 2009 (UTC)

Tight
Ok, Everything looks all cool here. It's good we could come to an understanding. My steam username right now is Blast HardCheese! Yes, I am a very big fan of MST3K. Big McLargeHuge 00:07, December 6, 2009 (UTC)
 * I found several ones... Klow 00:17, December 6, 2009 (UTC)

Wow, no kiddin! i'll just go back to my old one. Big McLargeHuge 00:24, December 6, 2009 (UTC)
 * Don't tell me it's Big McLargeHuge, because there are a lot as well. :P Klow 00:26, December 6, 2009 (UTC)

No, I switched it back to Rino47. It's not my fault Space Mutiny is so bad it is good. Seriously, it is one of the best episodes. Big McLargeHuge 00:29, December 6, 2009 (UTC)
 * I'm afraid I have no idea what is "MST3K" or "Space Mutiny"... Klow 01:58, December 6, 2009 (UTC)
 * Ah ok, I see now what "MST3K" is. I actually know that, but only by name. And I added you. Klow 01:59, December 6, 2009 (UTC)

All good. And just do a youtube search for Space Mutiny, I swear it is worth an hour of your time. Big McLargeHuge 02:18, December 6, 2009 (UTC)

Good work!
You do seem to know what you're doing... Amazingly. As a matter of fact, most people on Wiki's (Especially admins) know what they're doing. Intelligence and common sense is rare, my friend. Don't leave it behind. --DJRosetta 14:43, December 8, 2009 (UTC)
 * Thanks a lot for that. And I can't get this Breen's Private Reserve logo right! Damn! Klow 14:45, December 8, 2009 (UTC)
 * Good luck with that... I should add you on steam. I must shove off onto next block (the school house). Isolate. Sterilize.--DJRosetta 14:49, December 8, 2009 (UTC)
 * Lol. Yeah, feel free to add me on Steam. Klow 14:50, December 8, 2009 (UTC)
 * And Klow's back to work, the next day! All you need is a cloak, cape, and a kick-ass theme song... Hmm.... I'LL WORK ON IT NOW!--DJRosetta 13:20, December 9, 2009 (UTC)
 * So far, your theme song is going as well as a moose in the way of a semi-truck. I WILL MAKE IT. TRUST ME.--DJRosetta 13:19, December 10, 2009 (UTC)

regarding your question
You were asking about the exact location of the MP7 in Ep. 2. It is found on a supply crate in This Vortal Coil. It's a bit behind the Vortigaunt that is healing Alyx. Thank you for the compliment, too :) Just a heads-up: there will be a few cases where I ask you about a potential edit before I do it, OK? the cake is a lie 14:31, December 13, 2009 (UTC)DiceRoller
 * Ok then. And for the Vort, you mean in the silo where are Sheckley and Griggs? And you don't have to add DiceRoller after the 4 "~". Klow 15:02, December 13, 2009 (UTC)

a few more questions
This is what I meant in my other message: I might ask you about things before I potentially edit/add them. first: The RPG. Should the icon for Gordon Propelled Rocket be added to the gallery? And second: when you list references to the Crowbar in other games, I found one a while back that might make it onto the list. In Portal: The Flash Version, typing "die" or "kill" into the Console will result in the message "subject committed suicide with an invisible crowbar." It might be mere coincidence, but seeing as Portal is related to HL, I thought it might be intentional. Apologies if this is too long, and keep this wiki going! I love it! the cake is a lie 14:59, December 13, 2009 (UTC)DiceRoller
 * It's never too long. ;-) So, about the RPG: I don't get it, are you referring to the HUD icon? Both RPGs have them in their galleries. And for the crowbar, since when Portal: The Flash Version is canon?... Klow 15:05, December 13, 2009 (UTC)
 * I just understood what you meant by "Gordon Propelled Rocket". I added it to the article. And don't forget to ALWAYS write game and chapter names in italics. ;-) Klow 16:01, December 13, 2009 (UTC)
 * Ok, I got it. And, I know Portal:TFV isn't canon, but I just thought it might count as a HL-crowbar reference. It's not necessary, I just thought I'd toss it out there.

the cake is a lie 16:10, December 13, 2009 (UTC)DiceRoller
 * Well, let's not delve too much in mod reference in canon articles. Klow 17:52, December 13, 2009 (UTC)

Cleanup
Alright, I might try my hand at the cleanup. The only question I have is what truly constitutes a cleaned up article. I'm guessing it needs near-perfect grammar and spelling, all factual info, relevant images and links, and it needs to be complete. Anything else? the cake is a lie 18:09, December 13, 2009 (UTC)DiceRoller
 * It can be incomplete, factual or image wise. The most important thing is that the English must be good in all the aspects you just referred to (I won't say "perfect" since we don't need Shakespeare to talk about a mindless weapon) and that it respects the layout guide if an official layout exists for that type of article. It's all explained on the project page anyway. Of course, the issues may vary depending on the article, and some articles may have a very few fixes to apply. Klow 18:45, December 13, 2009 (UTC)
 * Made some changes to the Hivehand, HECU RPG, Laser Tripmine, and a few others. I'd like you to review the changes and see if they have been sufficiently cleaned-up, OK?

the cake is a lie 20:06, December 13, 2009 (UTC)DiceRoller
 * Laser Tripmine still has too many subtitles. "Counter-Tactics" and "Caution" should be merged with "Tactics" appropriately. Klow 20:36, December 13, 2009 (UTC)


 * Not entirely sure yet. I just got home from school, I'll be looking into it in about 2 hours or so. I'll proofread the articles later, and let you know which ones I think are cleaned up, OK? Then you can take a final look and decide if they are. Sounds good to you?

the cake is a lie 20:08, December 14, 2009 (UTC)DiceRoller
 * Ok, perfect! And please stop adding "DiceRoller" after the 4 "~"! Klow 20:10, December 14, 2009 (UTC)

Alright, I'll give it a go. the cake is a lie 23:13, December 14, 2009 (UTC)

Elite Emperor
Hey boss, Elite Emperor did not vandalize that page. The anon user before him did. Big McLargeHuge 16:34, December 18, 2009 (UTC)
 * Are you sure? I thought I double checked. Klow 16:34, December 18, 2009 (UTC)
 * Ah I see, that's because he didn't revert it, I got confused. And don't say I'm moody! ;-) Klow 16:36, December 18, 2009 (UTC)
 * No, I'd say you're a little overworked. Big McLargeHuge 11:32, December 18, 2009 (UTC)
 * I unblocked our friend and apologized. It must have felt weird for him... Klow 16:39, December 18, 2009 (UTC)

HUD Icons for the weapon templates
Hey, Klow

Could you add HUD icons to the weapon templates for weapons that have them (like the gravity gun, shotgun, crossbow, etc...).


 * Please sign your comments. You mean Template:Weapons? Because if you do, that wouldn't work well since many weapons are not usable by the player, thus have no HUD icon. Klow 16:25, December 21, 2009 (UTC)


 * Oh, I didn't mean templates by those, oops! I meant the weapon info boxes. Dib9394 16:42, December 21, 2009 (UTC)


 * Ah ok. That crossed my mind once, and yeah that could be good. Klow 16:47, December 21, 2009 (UTC)


 * However for the weapons who have SVG HUD icons, that would look good, but not for the others, as the width of their HUD icons are smaller than the weapon infobox... Klow 16:53, December 21, 2009 (UTC)


 * Maybe try to resize them unless they could get blurry. Dib9394 17:22, December 21, 2009 (UTC)


 * I won't resize them, and whatever happens, they will be blurry. Anyway I tried and that doesn't look good, even with the SVG ones. Klow 14:12, December 22, 2009 (UTC)

HECU squads
Hey should their be articles on the HECU squads like Echo team heard on the Announcement System and X-ray Zulu on the HECU Radio? Malekron 02:41, December 23, 2009 (UTC)
 * I guess. Indeed we still need to expand upon the number of HECU articles. Klow 11:27, December 23, 2009 (UTC)

RE: Rollback
Gee, thanks. JgcxCub 10:31, December 23, 2009 (UTC) Yeah, boss, thanks a million for the freakin' promotion. Big McLargeHuge 03:58, December 24, 2009 (UTC)

Bot
Hey, boss, I have an idea on how you can ease the workload around here. You can, and I don't know how to do this, but instead of changing 'trainstation' to 'Trainstation' by hand, you can have a bot do it. Theres the Scurry Bot on Thief, Porter Bot on Fallout, so no reason why we cant have a Klowbot on here. I can ask my boss on the Thief Wiki if your interested in a how-to. Big McLargeHuge 03:56, December 24, 2009 (UTC)
 * I've always wanted a bot to do that kind of stuff, like the Wookieepedia bot that replaced all "Image:" by "File:". But it seems a bit complicated to manage, at least for me. But maybe it's not! Thanks if you can find some help somewhere else. Klow 08:54, December 24, 2009 (UTC)

A little problem after uploading two images
I uploaded two images for the Autogun but I just have one little problem. I forgot to add a proper name for the first image, File:Ep2_outland_090001.jpg, I uploaded and made a typo in the categories for File:Black box opened.jpg. Since I cannot rename files, I made a duplicate for the first image and named it to File:Autogun back.jpg. So could you fix this problem?

Oh and I didn't add links to those images because I couldn't find another way to post them other than thumbnails but you could still find those images. Dib9394 14:22, December 25, 2009 (UTC)


 * I fixed the whole thing for you. See you in a week, no hard feelings! ;-) Klow 22:29, December 25, 2009 (UTC)

Improvement
Hey, I want to help improve out wiki a lot, but there's so much to do... Do you have any specific projects or articles that need work? I have a lot of free time right now, and little to do. --Fireman V2 05:25, December 26, 2009 (UTC)
 * The Cleanup Project might be your best friend right now, then. ;-) Thought you knew about it. Klow 11:16, December 26, 2009 (UTC)
 * I did, I just would like to know what needs the most work. --Fireman V2 18:44, January 2, 2010 (UTC)
 * Well any in-universe article for now. Any article you want. Klow 22:18, January 2, 2010 (UTC)

Re: Breen
Well I wasn't aware. I figured it meant all his appearances, not just in Half-Life. And Left 4 Dead and Half-Life are related in a way since they're made by the same company. Jo the Marten ( Shriek )  ಠ_ಠ  11:35, December 27, 2009 (UTC)
 * I put the mentioning back into the article. The problem was that section is just for appearances within the HL universe. Trivia is probably where you wanted the fact in.-- YabbaMyIcing Talk 21:45, December 27, 2009 (UTC)
 * Now you know! ;-) I added a mention in the layout guide. Being made by the same dev is not enough. Looking Glass Studios for instance made System Shock and the Thief series, but they are not related at all. That's the same thing with Valve games. They have different series, and each has its own universe, Portal being the exception, belonging to the HL universe. The trivia section is the best place for it, thanks Yabba. Klow 23:44, December 27, 2009 (UTC)

Hunter Down
Isn't this song a reference to Black Hawk Down? Malekron 02:53, December 30, 2009 (UTC)
 * How so? Klow 11:08, December 30, 2009 (UTC)
 * It compares to that of rebels (Resistance ; Somali militia) have destroyed a super power's (Combine ; USA) helicopter (Hunter-Chopper ; Black Hawk). Malekron 00:23, January 2, 2010 (UTC)
 * It's a reference to the Combine Hunter-Chopper, that's all. Klow 00:26, January 2, 2010 (UTC)

Yo Man
Front page FA coding is off. Since you don't like anyone touching you special code, I figure I would tell you there is a problem rather than try, and inevitably fail, to fix it.-- YabbaMyIcing Talk 22:36, January 1, 2010 (UTC)
 * Fixed. Klow 22:41, January 1, 2010 (UTC)

Robot Grunt
Hey can you evaluate the article? I took out the overall fiction about what the entities names are and unneeded Sven coop info. Malekron 22:39, January 2, 2010 (UTC)
 * Ok I'll peer into it, thanks. Klow 13:32, January 3, 2010 (UTC)

Also what type of gun is it holding in the early variant? Malekron 14:49, January 3, 2010 (UTC)
 * It's irrelevant, I removed it. Klow 16:18, January 3, 2010 (UTC)

Hey should there be an article for the soldiers, snipers, Human Sargeant and the Goose 3 pilot or should it just be put in to a new sub section in the HECU article? Malekron 16:37, January 3, 2010 (UTC)
 * I've been considering splitting the HECU article for a while now, but I don't really know where to start... Klow 16:38, January 3, 2010 (UTC)

Why don't you start with the soldiers first. Malekron 17:05, January 3, 2010 (UTC)
 * Don't know which one really deserves it. I guess there's the sniper, the medic and the engineer. What else? Klow 17:09, January 3, 2010 (UTC)

The Human Sargeant and HECU soldiers are left and I found sound files linked to the Human Sargeant and a video of him fighting the player in what appears to be the beta Residue Processing here it is during 1:46. Malekron 19:17, January 3, 2010 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I forgot about this guy. Him and the weapon definitely deserve an article. I also have some screenshots of that part. Klow 00:23, January 4, 2010 (UTC)

Newbie Questions
Yeah, I actually was about uploading some more pics to add to the article, editing and trying things out took me quite some time though ^^'

I noticed you changed the links I added for reference to tags, should I always use them instead of the brackets [] when adding a reference link? Didn't notice anything about that on one of the help pages yet, so I figured I'd just ask

And one more thing, I'm not quite sure about those "cat" fields for image categories. The help page says I should just leave them blank rather then writing anything wrong. So, now that you created a MINERVA screenshots category is it correct if I type just cat type=MINERVA Screenshots in the summary field?

And one last thing ^^' Did I make correct use of the Gamescreenshot and Fairuse license when uploading the pic?

hope I don't bother you too much with asking all these questions... C.h.a.r.l.i. 02:07, January 3, 2010 (UTC)


 * So! For the ref links, you should always use the reflist system. For the external links, you should also put the title of the external page with its link. I didn't do it in the MINERVA page yesterday when I changed the thing, it was just a quick fix, but I more or less added to it now. Cite web should normally be used all the time for external links, but it's long to process, so we'll use simple links for now.
 * For the category fields, it's not that complicated. Actually just use what you see in existing images, that would be better than a lame explanation from me. I personally copy/paste all the time from existing stuff for the whole wiki. So for further MINERVA screenshots, just copy/paste what you see in the pic you have uploaded (since I fixed it), that'll be much easier. Also you should maybe remove the HUD from your screens, since it does not have anything to do with the subject (and especially when it's not in the game's original language). "cl_drawhud 0" is your friend for that, and, just in case, "impulse 200" will hide the weapon.
 * And for the license: perfect! ;-) It's just logical.
 * Overall don't worry, we're here to help, and we always help people like you who care for and respect the project. ;-) Klow 13:50, January 3, 2010 (UTC)


 * Alright, thanks for the answers! Didn't know you could actually edit the picture pages too, but copy & paste really makes the whole thing easy :)
 * About the pic, I actually found it on flickr but I might make a new one... ;) the others I have are from the Minerva Blog and show no HUD. And I noticed you changed the source from the flickr link to a link to the wiki entry, should I do the same for the rest of the pics or put the link to the Minerva Blog entry there?
 * Glad I got those licenses right ^^ C.h.a.r.l.i. 19:01, January 3, 2010 (UTC)


 * Always use the original source. Whenever you find a HL2 screenshot for example, its real source is always HL2. Klow 19:07, January 3, 2010 (UTC)

Half life Wikia in spanish (original)
(with translated it with a translator if you can not understand Spanish)

I would recommend to put (the wiki below) in minority languages through its section.

THIS!!!! Half life Wiki in Spanish


 * Please sign your comments. The official Spanish version already exists, and we already link to it. Please work on that wiki, or ask for a redirect. Duplicate wikis are complete nonsense to me. Klow 17:14, January 5, 2010 (UTC)

Lolwut changes
Hai Klow, You seem to be lacking a bit of grammar skillz. No offense, of course. I edited a page correcting "a HECU" to "an HECU". You reverted these changes. May I remind you it's always "an" before an abbreviation? Merlox 23:39, January 6, 2010 (UTC)
 * Well, I challenge you to write in French as I do in English and keep up a decent level in thousands of articles, my dear friend. I just applied the rule that an "an" before a word starting by H is most of the time incorrect. Klow 10:59, January 7, 2010 (UTC)
 * OK. You're right that if you had it non-abbreviated as Hazardous blah blah blah, it would be "a".. but abbreviations kinda sound wrong without the "an" to me, so whatever.  Btw, this is Merlox, on a non-logged-in computer. 173.75.249.10 02:27, January 10, 2010 (UTC)
 * The rules and what sounds good to you are different things... Klow 12:13, January 10, 2010 (UTC)

G-man mumble 3 to 5
I just looked in to the G-man sound file and found some interesting discovers such as for G-man's 3rd mumble sounds like this "I want to give an offering" for the 4th mumble sounds like "I have wondered...so helpful" the middle part I couldn't identified as for the 5th mumble I've identified as "My employers approve". Originally at first it sounded with his speech "My employers groove". Pretty cool. Malekron 02:20, January 9, 2010 (UTC)
 * Interesting, where are these files? Are you referring to HL1 or 2? Klow 14:32, January 9, 2010 (UTC)
 * HL 1 in the valve sound folder. Malekron 17:06, January 9, 2010 (UTC)
 * Ok I'll peer into it. Klow 18:15, January 9, 2010 (UTC)

Your user page.
Don't you mean "expect" rather than "except" any mercy from us? JgcxCub 10:13, January 10, 2010 (UTC)
 * Oh yeah, thanks. Klow 11:57, January 10, 2010 (UTC)
