Whoa ! So wait a minute : can you pass me the link to each ? So that I can see what types of personalities they have ?  TNÉ  En avant Bravo ! 04:00, September 16, 2009 (UTC)

Here is one page and then all the others are in a navigation box at the bottom. - Heart Of Oblivion 04:10, September 16, 2009 (UTC)

OMG. Now here's to thinking what characters should be placed into the userboxes.  TNÉ  En avant Bravo ! 04:14, September 16, 2009 (UTC)


 * Hello there, mind if I barge in :P I happen to have a Quizilla account, and I'd love to try to make this WikiFauna test for you :D I think that we should set it up as 24 questions, with (at least) 10 answer possibilities, defining the answer. Each question would be about a single WikiThingy's specialty, like How do you treat newbies? (the best answer would be for WikiOtters, while the worst would probably be for the WikiVampires). Get it? could we do this? - Ice boy Svalur! 14:34, September 16, 2009 (UTC)

Sweet ! But for 25 WikiFauna possibilities, what should we do ?  TNÉ  En avant Bravo ! 14:36, September 16, 2009 (UTC)

Possible Image Choices

 * WikiGryphon: Wyvern?
 * WikiFallen: Wight Knight
 * WikiMinnow: Flounder and make WikiTrout an Aquatank?
 * WikiVampire: Sora's Vampire form
 * WikiWizard: Yen Sid or Merlin
 * WikiElf: Santa Elves from Christmas Town
 * WikiFairy: Tinkerbell We already had it just wasn't on the Userbox page.

Another problem : categorisation. See Category talk:Users by WikiFauna.  TNÉ  En avant Bravo ! 04:26, September 16, 2009 (UTC)

Well, we'll have to wait for an admin to help because we can't move categories and it would take awhile to go through all of them and then have to delete them. - Heart Of Oblivion 04:29, September 16, 2009 (UTC)

They have the Move button. We normal users used to have it but when Wikia changed its policies here and there, they decreed that we can't have the move button. See how much trouble it creates for us. I used to be able to move articles at my own will. Now I can't.  TNÉ  En avant Bravo ! 04:32, September 16, 2009 (UTC)

EDIT : We do have the Move button, but not for Categories. Damn.  TNÉ  En avant Bravo ! 04:34, September 16, 2009 (UTC)

Or files. I'd love to stay up and help but I have classes tomorrow. So night! - Heart Of Oblivion 04:35, September 16, 2009 (UTC)

G'night then. See ya soon.  TNÉ  En avant <font color="#00BFFF ">Bravo ! 04:43, September 16, 2009 (UTC)

Community Portal Forum box (2009.10.16)
To work on after my editing on KHFR is done for the day.

DTN suggests double-column, instead of a straight-down bulleted list. So is the box going to be wide ? And how wide is it going to be ?  TNÉ  <font color="#1E90FF">En avant <font color="#00BFFF ">Bravo ! 05:38, October 16, 2009 (UTC)
 * As for the actual pixel-amount, I'm not sure. I would assume that it will be fairly wide; it'll have a title, perhaps a little sub-heading/message, and then the two columns. Come up with a draft version, and we can work from there. I think that we should double-column rather than single, as it will look cleaner and nice that the simplicity of a bulleted list. -- Door To  Nothing <font face=Trebuchet MS color=red>Kupo! 05:45, October 16, 2009 (UTC)

Okay, so let's say it takes the width of the page, but it's not going to be so big. It's gonna be like, maybe, the size of a maintenance template. What do you say ?  TNÉ  <font color="#1E90FF">En avant <font color="#00BFFF ">Bravo ! 05:47, October 16, 2009 (UTC)
 * I would say just somewhat smaller than a maintenance template. I'll look later; It is nearly midnight, and I have classes tomorrow! -- Door To  Nothing <font face=Trebuchet MS color=red>Kupo! 05:49, October 16, 2009 (UTC)

Okay, gotcha. Will start once my infobox work on KHFR is done for the day.  TNÉ  <font color="#1E90FF">En avant <font color="#00BFFF ">Bravo ! 06:06, October 16, 2009 (UTC)


 * Mind if I barge in? :P I just made a preview in my Workshop, go take a look! - <font face=Trebuchet MS color=blue>Ice <font face=Trebuchet MS color=dodgerblue>boy <font face=Trebuchet MS color=paleturquoise>Svalur! 11:20, October 16, 2009 (UTC)

Okay, will do.  TNÉ  <font color="#1E90FF">En avant <font color="#00BFFF ">Bravo ! 11:37, October 16, 2009 (UTC)


 * Now, I believe it is done, how is it? - <font face=Trebuchet MS color=blue>Ice <font face=Trebuchet MS color=dodgerblue>boy <font face=Trebuchet MS color=paleturquoise>Svalur! 17:46, October 16, 2009 (UTC)

I think it should do. ^_^  TNÉ  <font color="#1E90FF">En avant <font color="#00BFFF ">Bravo ! 00:06, October 17, 2009 (UTC)


 * It looks great. I've already put something in the Forums discussion about it, so let's get some more feedback. Unless if you think that BebopKate's feedback is enough. -- Door To  Nothing <font face=Trebuchet MS color=red>Kupo! 00:12, October 17, 2009 (UTC)
