Appearances Chart Deployment Progress
I have deployed the chart for the top characters, and I will continue to deploy for the remainder as time permits. Some characters have ambiguous identities (ex. Euchre, Master Mage, etc.), so i'll save them for last. --CaduRyaq 20:24, April 16, 2012 (UTC)

Charts are in place for the easy to define characters --CaduRyaq 18:20, April 17, 2012 (UTC)

Hello, its me :D
'''Hi I saw your feedback and liked it but, there are many problems with Raine, she is a Keidran not half human half keidran, she is a human because she is under suppresion spell by her mother, she is like that because her father (Euchure) is a keidran under a disguse spell and had a baby, raine. He did not know the  spell might cause him to have a child. She is cursed in keidran but under suppresion spell she is a human, I won't change it my-self because I might be wrong somewhere, and I hope you could understand that, have a nice day! :D'''

    XBLACKKNIGHT98X, Reguards!


 * It's difficult to say for sure exactly what she is, though for the moment it seems her natural state is Keidran, except if the enchanted shackles intervene. I would leave that part of the article alone for now, until her sub-plot progresses further. Article discussion usually goes on the talk page of the article, just for future reference. --CaduRyaq (talk) 11:00, May 17, 2013 (UTC)

Adelaide
You said if I needed help to leave a message, so here it is. On King Adelaide's page, it says that Madelyn is her daughter. There is no note of this on Madelyn Adelaides page nor is this specified in the comic. I was just hoping for some help finding sorce info for this so that the note of them being blood kin is confirmed as Canon. As it is right now, there is an unverified piece of information on a main page. Thank you for your time. JerichoRCDF (talk) 00:20, August 9, 2013 (UTC)
 * Hi. The reference material most pages use is the comic itself. I would think the claim is justified by the same name, and the position she was allowed during Keith's trial. I can't find a specific reference of who her mother is. It's possible however that someone asked Tom about it, and the information was released that way. Unless you can verify the information now, it would be best to remove it or edit it to make it more clear that they have the same last name, but their familiarity is unknown. --CaduRyaq (talk) 11:35, August 9, 2013 (UTC)

~ SirProudNoob
Since I'm going to be asking you a lot of questions and sending a lot of suggestions, I'm going to go ahead and make a section for me, so I don't clutter your talk page.

Character Pages

 * In terms of standardization, I think that the From the Author sections I've been making would be best as the first thing on the pages. This might cause some issues with formatting, as nearly every page has an unformatted text paragraph giving more-or-less updated descriptions that I'm not sure how to categorize.
 * Formatting looks ok on the articles I've looked at. --CaduRyaq (talk) 11:54, August 13, 2013 (UTC)


 * So basically, if I'm making any formatting changes that you think aren't beneficial, please tell me so I can change them to something better. Patrolling the Twokinds wikia just became a hobby of mine, so I should be able to fix them fairly quickly. Thanks for your time. (Also, I apologize for the number of edits and the frequency of them.  I have some free time right now, although it will not always be the case) ~ SirProudNoob (talk) 03:10, August 13, 2013 (UTC)

Suggestions For Main Page Design

 * I think the voting-incentive wallpaper can probably be used instead of the picture being used for the background of the whole wiki right now, or maybe something else wallpaper style from deviantART (with Tom's permission, of course). It's blurry and a little distracting (although it does fit the color scheme).
 * The tabs on top need to be fixed. There's a few repeats of stuff, and the formatting is off. Some of the tabs are still named in wiki-form, with underscores instead of spaces, and capitalization in weird places.
 * Close the poll for the favorite character (obviously won by Flora :P ) and start a new one for favorite couple. Could include:
 * Trace & Flora
 * Trace & Saria
 * Keith & Laura
 * Keith & Natani
 * Eric & Kat (not really both ways, but it'd be fun to have it here, too)
 * Mike & Evals (not necessary, just for the laughs)
 * A box for Tom's Twitter feed (I know it's repetitive, because his Twitter is linked to his deviantART as well, but I think it'd fit well underneath the website feed). Not entirely sure if this is possible, but it'd be cool.
 * I'll work on these. Unfortunately it's a busy time for me right now, but I should be able to do something soon. --CaduRyaq (talk) 22:54, August 14, 2013 (UTC)
 * Poll has been changed; old poll data has been saved on the new Polls page. It seems twitter discontinued its RSS feeds. I'm exploring getting one through a 3rd party service. --CaduRyaq (talk) 19:21, August 16, 2013 (UTC)
 * I figured out that MediaWiki:Wiki-navigation is the page that defines the navigation bar visible under the Wikia theme (the default). I don't actually see the bar, since I have Monobook configured. --CaduRyaq (talk) 19:28, August 16, 2013 (UTC)

If we get the UI and feel updated, maybe we can ask Tom to tweet the wikia, so it can get some more traffic. I'm not sure everyone knows about this. I haven't ever seen any edits from Tom either, but I suppose that's the job of the fans. I hope he knows the wikia even exists... ~ SirProudNoob (talk) 04:21, August 14, 2013 (UTC)
 * I would imagine that he does, it's been around for a while. Regardless, if we improve things a lot, it might be good to notify him of that. --CaduRyaq (talk) 22:54, August 14, 2013 (UTC)

Chapter Synopses Categories

 * I know that you're busy (and I'm actually busy now, as well due to college classes starting), but can you please change the categories of the Chapter Summaries to Synopsis instead of comic? On the older pages I was able to delete the comic one and add the Synopsis. On the newer pages (see Chapter 7), I can't remove the comic category. ~ SirProudNoob (talk) 01:12, August 19, 2013 (UTC)
 * I'll look at it. --CaduRyaq (talk) 01:30, August 19, 2013 (UTC)

Hertz - Wikia Justice Warrior!
I think this may be the first of many correspondence, so lets make a talk page section! :D

I think the TwoKinds IRC has a lot to be desired in terms of consistency and content. (No offence, I'm just referring to some of the pages that haven't been updated and/or are poorly written by other contributors) I'm going to be trying to fix some of the grammatical errs and data omissions for character pages and such. If there's anything that needs pressing attention, feel free to contact me via Twitter or IRC (In bio) or leaving a message/talk page contrib.

Regards,

Cal.

HertzIRC (talk) 20:52, March 19, 2014 (UTC)


 * Hi Cal, anything you can do to improve things is appreciated. Thanks. --CaduRyaq (talk) 21:34, March 19, 2014 (UTC)



Link to pirated comic.
Hello there,

I couldn't help but notice that someone made the following page, containing a link to where the Prank Pixie Panic comic was posted on Yiff Gallery.

http://twokinds.wikia.com/wiki/Prank_Pixie_Panic

I've removed the link, seeing as the comic was offered exclusively as part of a Kickstarter campaign. Posting it publicly is probably going against Tom's wishes, provided it isn't outright piracy. Just thought you should be aware of the matter, in case you wish to look into it further.

Jonesy95 (talk) 01:54, October 18, 2014 (UTC)


 * Hi, Thanks for removing the link. The comic seems to have made its way onto a lot of sites in the past few months, but we shouldn't link to it here without explicit approval. --CaduRyaq (talk) 08:47, October 18, 2014 (UTC)

Good Luck
Hello hello ? oh hey thanks for giving me message  oh well   hey do you even know in Steam Five Nights at Freddys 3 is Out in store  in steam store you know you  can buy but dont forget about the this money in steam  now good bye  i will send you the slideshow photos :)...                                                                                                                                                                                                         By: Bonnie FNAF1

Hi Cad! Uh I know Im not the highest ranked guy and dont have the rank of templar but I would like to help this wiki!

Experienced admin looking to help
Hay there, my name is Lauren and I'm a huge TwoKinds Fan, keeping up to date with it as much as I can. I'm currently and admin over at the RWBY wiki and I'm wondering if I could help here at all. The activity seems quite low and I can see a lot of the code/backgrounds kinda need an overhaul. So, if you need anything just ask.

P.S. I'm not sure how talk pages work since I've only ever used Message Walls, if responding to this doesn't give me a notification could you please leave a short message on my wall on RWBY or Community central?


 * Hi Lauren. As far as I can tell, activity tends to be low because there is only one limited information source for TwoKinds (the comic itself), although that is changing with side comics like TDM. I tend to act as a pure administrator, protecting the wiki from spam and disputes between editors, but not much actual editing. If you would like to rework protected pages/content (like the Main Page), just say which and I will alter the protection settings. I don't keep on top of aesthetics that much, since I use the cleaner MonoBook layout instead of the Wikia default. You should get a notification if you're following the page, which is the default after editing it. --CaduRyaq (talk) 18:37, April 19, 2015 (UTC)

Lil question how can you make badges?
 * Badges, or this that an auto-correction error, and you mean pages? If you wanted to make a new Chapter page for example, I would recommend using the "Source editor" (look in your user preferences under Editing), and then copy/paste the syntax for the previous chapter page and change it. If you do mean badges, I guess you're talking about the Special:Leaderboard. I don't think Achievements are user-editable, but the page to edit them is Special:AchievementsCustomize. If you want to suggest some, I can add them. --CaduRyaq (talk) 18:36, May 8, 2015 (UTC)

Uh, hey.

Since Natani is both a girl and a boy, shouldn't we put "gender: neutral?"

Or maybe, male/female?

Just a suggestion but use it or leave it, doesn't mater to me.

Thanks,

PopRox6012~ :3 (talk) 14:30, May 19, 2015 (UTC)


 * Hi. If we apply what would be polite in our own society, Gender: Male is the most correct, since Natani expresses this as their preference in the comic. Specifying Gender: Neutral might imply that they are agender, which doesn't seem to be the case. Male/Female could be considered offensive, and I think the article already shows this clearly enough (the Notes section of the infobox for example). If you want to discuss this further, the best place is the article's talk page. --CaduRyaq (talk) 21:37, May 19, 2015 (UTC)

Need help?
AFK man 682 (talk) 13:44, June 21, 2015 (UTC)Hey, sir, could you be as so kind as to explain what this is. The page I was on didn't explain much and I would really like to know what TwoKinds is.


 * TwoKinds is a fantasy webcomic involving both human and anthropomorphic animal characters. This wiki contains articles that explain it in greater detail, if you want to know more. You can start reading the comic yourself here. --CaduRyaq (talk) 14:02, June 21, 2015 (UTC)

Some coding
I hope you won't mind, but can you add some coding into the wikia for some navboxes/templates that can be made?

The first, to help make some navboxes work, can be C+P'd from here. Got the advice from a good B-Crat on CoDWikia

The second for it can be C+P'd from here. The thing with this one is that the colors would have to be tinkered/changed to match the color scheme here. If any questions please message me back, thanks! Argorrath (talk) 03:31, June 29, 2015 (UTC)


 * I've added the show/hide javascript. I can't get the Wikia theme's css to load right now (server returns 400 error), so I can't test out those css changes on that right now. --CaduRyaq (talk) 06:58, June 29, 2015 (UTC)


 * Thanks, I did a bit tinkering on colors and found 3 (2 are the main two here) and one other. Looking at the coding from the C+P, replace the #68838B with #b2c9b6, replace #ccac00 with #e2eee4, and replace #2F4F4F with #859d89. You can tinker with the colors to fit your liking tho. Argorrath (talk) 07:19, June 29, 2015 (UTC)

Thank you for your welcome message! I've been working on updating the appearance sections of the characters, and have been making steady progress. Goal is to get appearanced updated to end of chapter 17 for main characters and chapter 16 for minor ones by mid-February!

Mekkan
I found a map> [] of Mekkan on google that will actually let viewers read the names of the towns and cities and ect. Should I link it on the official page?

Mionikoi (talk) 01:34, February 1, 2016 (UTC)


 * I think that's just a direct link to the left-hand map already on the Mekkan page? You can get to that same URL by clicking on that map twice (first goes to the detail page, second to the full resolution URL). --CaduRyaq (talk) 07:08, February 1, 2016 (UTC)

Deletion Rights?
I feel like a bozo because of this, but I have a half dozen templates that I attempted porting from wikipedia (In attempts to simplify some projects I have for articles and because they intertwined with one another) that don't work.

I'm wondering if I could get deletion rights so I can delete those failed templates?SuperGilligan93 (talk) 08:13, July 19, 2016 (UTC)


 * I added you to the Content Moderators group, that will allow you to delete, among other things. --CaduRyaq (talk) 13:58, July 19, 2016 (UTC)


 * Thanks. Too bad there isn't a way to export all associated templates from a page. This will be helpful with those mistakes of mine. Thanks again. SuperGilligan93 (talk) 05:12, July 20, 2016 (UTC)

Thoughts on a Layout Guide
I commented this on User:Argorrath's talk page earlier after he updated Red's article layout.

As a thought, I've been thinking the wiki could probably use a layout guide, especially for character articles similar to what they have over on Wookieepedia, but I'm not sure if it needs to be a discussion item for the TK wiki community first. What do you think? SuperGilligan93 (talk) 07:00, July 27, 2016 (UTC)


 * Having a guide makes sense. The actual guidelines within only need to be discussed if they're significantly different than the current general conventions. --CaduRyaq (talk) 14:21, July 28, 2016 (UTC)
 * Thanks. I decided to move the existing Twokinds Wiki Guide to the project page Twokinds Wiki:Layout Guide so that it doesn't appear as an actual Twokinds article.
 * Also, if we can get any feedback or suggestions regarding my below post, that would be great.
 * Thanks for your help with making the wiki Epic. SuperGilligan93 (talk) 06:54, July 29, 2016 (UTC)

MediaWiki:Wikia.css
Argorrath and myself have some coding that we would like to add to MediaWiki:Wikia.css. His for the epic navboxes he's working on, and mine to return normal colorizations to the character infoboxes I had converted to the "Portable" design. Is there any way we can be granted permissions to modify that CSS file? Thanks for any help or suggestions. SuperGilligan93 (talk) 15:37, July 28, 2016 (UTC)


 * There doesn't seem to be a granular way to grant access. If you'd like to post the CSS somewhere, I can then review it and add it in. --CaduRyaq (talk) 22:30, July 29, 2016 (UTC)
 * I'm assuming that by "a granular way to grant access", you mean that the only way to grant access is "everyone, or admins only". If that's the case, I just placed mine on MediaWiki talk:Wikia.css and will direct Argorrath to do the same. SuperGilligan93 (talk) 02:36, July 30, 2016 (UTC)
 * I added a bit more for the infoboxes to be recolored and also shrink images to a specific size if you can enter that. SuperGilligan93 (talk) 19:04, August 2, 2016 (UTC)

Last thing for the navboxes
Cna you change the #FFFFFF to #000000? That will make the group text black and be easier to see. Thanks! Argorrath (talk) 00:47, August 1, 2016 (UTC)

Final Bit of CSS
I've added what should be the last bit of CSS for a while to the MediaWiki:Wikia.css talk page. The first section allows an editor to hide "Expand/Collapse" link brackets at their wish. The second section is an update to Infobox CSS to center "Tabbers" (see Raine's Infobox, the tabs are currently left aligned). The Second section only applies to "Tabbers" if the TK theme class is applied to them. SuperGilligan93 (talk) 21:13, August 26, 2016 (UTC)
 * Added/Updated. --CaduRyaq (talk) 22:10, August 26, 2016 (UTC)
 * Thanks, that should help a lot. And Tom's Sketching now, if you didn't know. SuperGilligan93 (talk) 02:50, August 27, 2016 (UTC)
