I agree with user Leiche... user EngiN33R you're in fact being arrogant.
"I made the whole article", "I wrote those exhaustive articles", "I do this", "I do that".

Yeah, I am. I am arrogant and I always was so my whole life, so please bear with me. I still help so I think arrogancy is acceptable.

*facepalm*
You really had to exaggerate, right? I just *tried* to tell you were arrogant in *a friendly way*, but I guess you're simply a nerd...
Scriptkiddy sig? Lol? I am part of various Wikia wikis (and Wikia has thousands and thousands and fuckillions (lol) of users) and most of them use similar signatures to mine (even on Wikipedia people do!). Some are even more exaggerated then mine and have whole templates made for them.
So screw you.

How was I exaggerating? Since when confessions are exaggerations? Oh I don't know. And you can think I'm a nerd, you can think I'm a geek, you can think I'm a dumbass or a fucktard, you can blame me for all the world's sins and I still won't care.

Last time I checked wikis didn't have signatures. And if you're trying to show that many other people use such signatures as well - well, you just show how many script kiddies there are out there. I haven't seen many sysops on even the so loved Wikipedia that would have signatures too fancy - they can be written in some non-standard fonts or I don't know, graphic effects like a little shadow behind the name, but nothing like yours (however yes, there are exceptions among sysops as well).

Now already 1.5 pages of this thread are occupied with off-topic war, so I'm offering a truce. Let's discuss the wiki in the wiki thread.

What? What's the ~~~~ tag for then? What's the "Signature" option hanging around in Special:Preferences?
Oh well. My opinion is everyone is free to use his/her own signature as long as it doesn't contain malicious code or whatever.

Wikis don't have signatures = wikis don't leave signatures = wikis don't write ~~~~ by themselves. That's what I meant.

Yeah, but it's kind of needed when sending messages to each other (now I'm totally against saying in the bottom of an article like: "article made by *put ~~~~ signature*, do not edit" (that's the exact oppose idea of what wikis should be!).
But when sending messages and using talk pages it's needed (the ~~~~, now the signature should be as the user wants it to).

Putting your signature at the bottom of the article you've created/edited is absolute nonsense - there's page history for that so signatures should indeed be used only on talk pages.

Yeah that's what I meant, but some people actually do that in articles and if I remove, they start insulting me "why you removed my signature?!1111".

It's finally done! Help:Editing is finally written. That took a long time but I'm proud of the new article, and there finally aren't any red links on the main page. Phew.

EDIT:

Interlanguage links have been implemented without any extensions. Please visit this and this pages to learn more. The Languages template now also features interlanguage links instead of having subpages for every language on one wiki like before. Tell me what you think.

yeah, nice work @ the interlanguage linking stuff! that's great!

note that I also changed the links here at the website and at the wiki so they all use the de.wiki. / en.wiki. URL format (this way you won't have to create 10 different login cookies).

Thanks a lot, I did my best.

Also, a template called Infobox has been implemented. I'm thinking about putting it on every game article to shortly describe each of those games (see Counter-Strike 2D article for an example).

@DC

Is it possible to change the name of the license in the English wiki? Because I think in the English wiki the license should be English as well - not 'Namensnennung, nicht kommerziell, Weitergabe unter gleichen Bedingungen' but 'Attribution, Noncommercial, Share-Alike'.

EDIT: @DC again, on the German wiki could you delete the pages I've created that haven't been edited by other people? Thank you.

Err please restore the Vorlage:Löschen page - it's the template that actually shows which pages to delete. And the pages that should be deleted are in my userspace (User:EngiN33R + User talk:EngiN33R with all the subpages), plus Vorlage:Checkbox.

P.S. Lol, there was a GIANT message not to delete the Vorlage:Löschen page enclosed in a dashed red frame.
