[edit] Licensing

Hi, Jaymach! Thanks for all the good work you've been doing here. I'm sorry it's been months (going on a year) since I've been able to participate much. I have a concern that the GFDL for this site is being mis-understood. Things that are published on this site are released under GFDL, so their future use may not be restricted in the way that Template:Stargatecaps requests. That means we will need to remove those images.  :-( Please see SGCommand:Copyrights and the copyrights information on the Central Wikia. As one of the more active current users, I hope you can help share this information and maybe help with replacement images that fit the guidelines? By the way, are you interested in being an administer? --CocoaZen 21:57, 29 October 2006 (UTC)

• Hmmm...I've been going by the same guidelines we use over on the Wookieepedia, which can be found over here. Of course we don't use the same tagging over here as is done on the Wookieepedia, but I'd assume that the law remains the same; if this is so, then I'd advise copying over some of the image tagging templates from the Wookieepedia to use here. And sure, I'd love to be an administrator...it doesn't mean all too much at the moment, as we have very little editing let alone vandalism, but it could be useful later. :) —Jaymach Ral'Tir (talk) 23:06, 29 October 2006 (UTC)

Then you might want to check the Wookieepedia rules against Wikia's and find out more about the legal status of screencaps from copyrighted material.

Specifically in the case of Stargate caps, GFDL means that you can't say they can be used here, but not somewhere else. So, since Stargatecaps were "allowed" for here only, they cannot be used under GFDL, so they can't be used on Wikia. I put the link to the conversation on the Central Wikia on the template's talk page.

I don't know the status of screencaps in general. I've seen people claim that they are ok, but they had no legal background, and in a few cases said things that they said were incorrect. As far as I know, this issue still needs follow-up. I hope someone will follow-up so we won't need to remove a lot more images.

Please be aware that if you add illegal images, you are legally responsible.

--CocoaZen 21:36, 5 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Template

Thank you. That will make things so much easier if they ever start iding address on SGA again. -- SFH 21:53, 11 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] new tabs...

Jaymach - You may notice some extra tabs now on this Wikia's pages. You are now an administrator here. See Wikia:Help:Administrators' how-to guide for more information. Use the force for good!  :-) Enjoy. --CocoaZen 20:30, 18 November 2006 (UTC)

• Thanks...and don't worry about it, I'm used to the tabs from over on the Wookieepedia (the Star Wars Wiki). —Jaymach Ral'Tir (talk) 22:05, 18 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Welcome

Sorry it's late but:

Greetings,

Welcome to Stargate Command. Your recent contributions are much appreciated. Looking forward to more.

--GingerM 19:10, 31 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Tenses

If you have a desire to have incorrect then that is your prerogative, it is wrong however. MatthewFenton 19:14, 17 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Furlings?

Where did you get the information about the previous residents of Madrona (that you wrote here in the infobox)? —Marco Polo 22:16, 20 March 2007 (UTC)

• It's in the RPG book. The Furlings are apparantly the race who terraformed Madrona, and also the inventors of the Touchstone...I've just not got around to doing Madrona yet...want me to write it up so there's no more confusion? —Jaymach Ral'Tir (talk) 00:25, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Address templates

Sorry, Jaymach, but I had to revert the change of from 20px back to 25px. The addresses didn't show up at 20px. -- SFH 03:23, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

• Yeah, I've spoken to sannse about it...turns out the latest MediaWiki upgrade has some problems with .svg images. Basically, it's unable to display thumbnails for any of them...but because we already had 25px thumbnails generated for those .svg images, they'll still work as long as we don't change them away from 25px...hopefully it will be fixed soon so that I can move it down to 20px. —Jaymach Ral'Tir (talk) 15:24, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Images

I uploaded the Gamekeeper point of origin image for you. However, I cannot fix the other problem (transparency) because the images are transparent. Wikia's thumbnailer does not do any transparency, so the transparent portions of the SVG images are white. —Marco Polo 23:01, 23 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Suggestion?

I Suggest that if you already have these info boxes use them, It makes the page look a lot more professional and clean, It also takes almost no time to add them! -- Awar 04:27, 28 March 2007 (UTC).

• Please dont take this as being rude but merely a personal thought on how to improve this site to make the best information source on stargate. -- Awar 04:27, 28 March 2007 (UTC).
  • We use the infoboxes where appropriate. See Tollan, Mars, Heliopolis, Volca, Asgard, et al for examples of where they're used. —Jaymach Ral'Tir (talk) 04:36, 28 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Osiris's Ship

I appreciate you moving it, but shouldn't it be Osiris' Ship (without the extra s)? -- Reignfire 20:34, 28 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Official Friends of SGCommand

Hey, this is a nice wiki you have here, I like it. Anyway, I know we have had our differences on the Wookieepedia IRC, but I would like to know where I could find the "Official Friends of SGCommand" page? I can't seem to find any, but if you are looking for any, SWGames would love to be a friend to here. We need to gain in popularity, and so I decided to come to one that is really popular and has good articles. Thank you very much! supergeeky1 21:58, 28 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] List of Stargates

I stumbled across this wikipedia:Planets in Stargate which might help you with List of Stargates. -- Reignfire 06:23, 22 April 2007 (UTC)

• The problem with that list is that it's full of fan-made Tau'ri designations and addresses...I'm checking each address as I add it to the list so that they're all correct. —Jaymach Ral'Tir (talk) 06:25, 22 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Well... I never said it was accurate :p -- Reignfire 06:32, 22 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] DVD Collection magazine

I noticed you skipped Stargate SG-1: The DVD Collection 59. I didn't know if this was on purpose or not, so I just wanted to point it out. -- Reignfire 15:39, 11 May 2007 (UTC)

• Yes, I realized...unfortunately issue 59 didn't get delivered when it was meant to. I've already complained to the company, and I'm meant to get it soon...so I should add the article for it within the next 2 weeks at most. —Jaymach Ral'Tir (talk) 23:05, 11 May 2007 (UTC)

Do the DVD Collection Magazines add anything new to the Stargate universe or simply repeat the samethings that are said or shown on the show? I see that the 59 one has an entry called 'Creations of the Ori' so was just wondering. Anyway main question I wanted to ask is that is it in the magazines that the Asgard Science class gets its name from? Darth Batrus 22:34, 30 January 2008 (UTC)

• Sorry for taking so long to get back to you...the "The DVD Collection" magazines do indeed add to the Stargate universe, though the level of what they add varies from article to article. The "Creations of the Ori" article, for example, mostly just gives details on the Ori's "sacrificial pyre" as well as noting differences between patterns on the Prior's faces. There may be a bit of new information in it, but a quick glance over it doesn't show anything glaring to me. Nevertheless, if you want me to scan it then I'm more than happy to do so. I already have a bunch of the pages up at my site. :) —Jaymach Ral'Tir (talk) 01:36, 1 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Auxiery control center?

I belive that the Ancient citys did have auxilery control centers as I watched in the tower & [the return] -- Awar 05:06, 23 May 2007 (UTC).

[edit] Entertainment footer

Hi there -- I'm working on a project for Wikia to help link the science-fiction wikis together, and encourage people to see this as one big site, rather than a lot of little wikis. I'd like to post this footer at the bottom of the main page.

Wikia's Science Fiction Wikis Andromeda • Babylon 5 • Back to the Future • Bionic Woman Browncoats • Creative Sci-Fi • Doctor Who • Faction Paradox Flash Gordon • Farscape • Firefly • Hitchhiker's Guide • Stargate Star Trek • Star Wars • Terminator • Traveller • X-Files

The gaming wikis have started a similar project, and they've seen a lot more cross-traffic. Would it be okay to post this at the bottom of the main page here? You could also feel free to edit it, to fit in better with this community. -- Danny (talk) 20:36, 17 September 2007 (UTC)

• Sorry it's taken me so long to reply to this...I've been inordinately busy with my work as of late...but I'd be perfectly okay with putting that on the bottom of the main page...so okay that I've just done so...and we really need to work on our main page. Ah well, that can happen later. :) —Jaymach Ral'Tir (talk) 08:20, 19 September 2007 (UTC)

Cool, thank you! -- Danny (talk) 21:45, 19 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] SciFi wiki

I'm an admin on SciFi Wiki which needs help with Stargate information, could you or someone you know help? Also, is there a place I can ask other users to help out?--UESPA 23:56, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Jaymach - Do me a big favour please

Make User:SGCommand an admin please--SGCommand wikia 19:36, 15 February 2008 (UTC)

• I apologize for taking so long to get back to you, but I've been mulling this over in my head the past few days to decide what to do. While I do understand that you used to be an administrator on the site, and indeed that you even founded the wiki, I'm afraid I don't feel that gives you the right to turn up out of the blue and ask for a position of authority again. The very fact that you haven't edited at all (besides making an edit to your userpage) since returning was really the deciding factor for me, as you seem to want the admin position again simply to say "I'm an admin over there". Feel free to prove me wrong and start contributing to the site again and I will be happy to rethink my position, but at the moment I simply don't see any reason why I should acquiesce to this request. Apologies, but I'd like to see you contribute first. —Jaymach Ral'Tir (talk) 18:01, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Spotlight

Hi Jaymach. I'm Wendy, a helper with the Entertainment group. I just wanted to give you a heads up that Stargate will be one of the spotlighted wikis for the next two weeks, because of the Ark of Truth release. You have things running pretty well here, so I'm sure you'll be fine, but I wanted to let you know that you might have some extra traffic. -- Wendy (talk) 01:29, 12 March 2008 (UTC)

• Thanks for the heads up...I had better start contributing a bit more to set an example. :P —Jaymach Ral'Tir (talk) 01:31, 12 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Transwiki two wikipedia articles

Hello. I am wikipedia:User:Sgeureka, and I am currently cleaning up Stargate-related wikipedia articles. I got your name because you mentioned your interest at wikipedia:Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Stargate to have the Atlantis episode articles transwikied here (which is currently being done).

I have two wikipedia articles that may be of interest for this fan wiki, but are inappropriate for wikipedia. It is wikipedia:Timeline of Stargate and wikipedia:Goa'uld language. Since you have admin rights, you may be interested in importing at least the second article (per wikipedia:User:Ned_Scott/transwiki#Importing.2FExporting). I also transwikied an article to http://annex.wikia.com/wiki/Unas_language before it got deleted on wikipedia, which could be imported here.

Let me know what you think. I will probably nominate the first two wikipedia articles for deletion in about two weeks. Sgeureka 17:05, 12 March 2008 (UTC)

• Sorry it's taken me so long to get back to you...I've been reading over the articles and the instructions on how to export/import them...I'll be doing so later today, but the main problem I have with it is that they're written from an out of universe perspective, whereas we prefer past tense in universe perspective on this wiki...so I'll import, then try to change it so it fits with the wiki. —Jaymach Ral'Tir (talk) 00:26, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

...And wikipedia throws a fit when it is written in in-universe past tense. :-) This was just an offer to save some info for the interested fans, so take your time, even if you decide in the end it's not really the kind of content this wiki is looking for. Just let me know when you're finished. Have a nice rest-weekend. :-) Sgeureka 22:46, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Main Page

Hi again Jaymach. As I've been browsing around here the last couple of days I keep looking and looking at the main page. I also noticed that you mention wanting to redo it a few discussions up from here. Would you be interested in working on that now? I thought maybe we could open a discussion on Talk:Main Page to see what other users would like to see added/changed, but if you think it would be better, I'd also be happy to just mock something up and put it under my namespace to see what people think and go from there. Or if you want to take a shot at it that would be great, because you certainly know the wiki better than I do. what do you think? -- Wendy (talk) 00:36, 14 March 2008 (UTC)

• My main problem is that, though I know the wiki quite well, I have no sense of aesthetics at all so it's hard for me to design anything. If you want to design a mock-up, then it would be most appreciated...if anything needs added/removed from it then I could let you know from there. To be honest, I'd also like to have another name for the site (seeing as SGCommand is simply the name of the founder) but I can't think of anything for the life of me. —Jaymach Ral'Tir (talk) 01:03, 14 March 2008 (UTC)

• Hi there -- take a look at User:Merrystar/Mainpage and see what you think. I took out some of the content links because there were just so many. I also took out "Vote for Stargater of the Month" since it seemed to be dead, and the Birthday banner, because I was having trouble making it work with the two columns. I can try to put that last back in if you want. I tried not to add too much stuff you'd really have to update, but to leave a spot where you *could* update stuff. If you wanted, we could add something about the IRC room too, but I wasn't sure. -- Wendy (talk) 18:14, 14 March 2008 (UTC)
• Thanks for that example...as with SFH, I like the design...I'm not too sure with the black on the headers, but until we get our new skin then I'm not too sure what other colour we could use. As such, I'll go and implement the new main page just now. —Jaymach Ral'Tir (talk) 00:26, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

• Cool. I'm glad you like it. Feel free to remove the black; the default pale blues and aquas just seemed wrong for stargate to me.... and then I saw Jack in a black skicap and went with it. Are you working on a new skin? I wondered why it was "Monaco-custom" but basically still sapphire. -- Wendy (talk) 01:19, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

• btw, have you ever thought about moving "Main Page" to a better title? Like "Stargate Wiki" for example. It actually helps search engines find you if the probably search terms (stargate, wiki) are in the title. Just a thought. (if you do move it you have to edit Mediawiki:Mainpage to reflect the new name as well). -- Wendy (talk) 01:23, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] stargate

I added the <br> tags on that page because an image was over lapping some text; perhaps you don't see that on your end? kluft 07:06, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Monaco-toolbox

Hi! Just so you know -- I made a change on MediaWiki:Monaco-toolbox... There was a cache problem that was making "What links here" not work on a lot of sites. So what I did should fix it. -- Danny (talk) 02:12, 20 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Disambiguations

I started working on this because there were so many pages linking to Wormhole X-Treme! instead of Wormhole X-Treme! (episode). It seemed to me that my move would make things a bit clearer, but if the criterion is what you wrote, I'll stick to it.

Anyway, we could make a page called Wormhole X-Treme! (disambiguation). What do you think?

BTW, sorry if I kept editing while you reverted, I didn't realize it. Next time, if you write in my talk page I'll know immediately and stop immediately!

--Lou Crazy 01:07, 14 April 2008 (UTC)

• You can make the disambiguation page if you like, but it seems rather pointless when there's only 2 articles with that name, and the one at the main page links to the other. No worries about continuing to edit...I figured that's what had happened, but if I thought if I left a message on your talk page then you wouldn't have seen it until after you made the edit which changed the main article into a disambiguation. —Jaymach Ral'Tir (talk) 01:16, 14 April 2008 (UTC)

• • Well, you're right, with just 2 it would be overkill. I wouldn't have added more links to the (show) page, though :-)
  • --Lou Crazy 01:46, 14 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Sock puppet sighting

I understand that you were the one who blocked Sam10. Well I have reason to believe that To10 is a sock puppet of him (he was the one who created the imaginary planet of "P9D-851"). Other evidence includes the poor grammar and the introduction on both user pages are uncannily similar.—Matthew R Dunn 11:53, 27 May 2008 (UTC)

Fandimonium novels and Big Finish Audio are not and have never been canon. This is direct from the producers of the show. Mallozzi must have answered that about 10 times by now on his blog. Do you honestly think they would accept a retrofit of their canon where a major character was replaced by an alternate version created by some fanfic writing wannabe? If you want this wikia to be respected as anything but the fanboy joke that it is currently considered, you need to get a grip on the difference between "canon" and licensed merchandise. Or do you perhaps now believe that it is "canon" that SG1 are 8" tall and made of plastic?

The character assassination you are currently indulging in on the Daniel Jackson page also adds little to your credibility. How many times does Brad Wright have to confirm that Daniel did NOT "do nothing" in Abyss before it sinks in? Try watching it again with both your eyes and ears open and you might notice there are some fairly clear visual and audio cues scattered through out the episode for people who don't need to be spoon-fed. In fact, perhaps a re-viewing of the entire ascension arc may help your understanding that Daniel's continual and escalating breaches of Ascended law lead to his descension, not one single action in one episode. They're called "story arcs" BTW, Stargate has quite a few of them...

[edit] Daniel Jackson controversy

I left a question on the talk page that you probably should respond to. -- SFH 19:23, 18 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Administration

Hey Jaymach, I was wondering if you could make me (Anubis 10545) an administrator here. I placed my name on the SGCommand:administration page, but either you haven't seen it... or you disregarded it. Thanks for your time. Anubis 10545 17:13, 19 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Don S. Davis

Don S. Davis passed away 6/29/08 and I was thinking that that could be placed on the front page under CurrentEvents. I was going to do it myself, but I didn't want to get an administrator (such as yourself) angry at me for editing the content of the front page (just in case). Hopefully this doesn't sound in bad taste, because I mean it in respect. — Anubis 10545 01:49, 1 July 2008 (UTC)
