Vandalism
Putting forth the suggestion that anonymous editing be locked for at least a few days. Seems like the vandalism is not only a daily occurance lately, but getting progressively worse.

Unfortunately I have to agree. I know that you guys want anons to be part of the community, but at this point you're gonna find bunch of articles with offensive vandalism every day. 09:14, July 7, 2013 (UTC)

Yeah, I really wonder what triggered it. It doesn't seem to be one person doing it, as I've seen several very different IPs and types of vandalism.

Harostar (talk) 09:43, July 7, 2013 (UTC)

I have to agree with you guys but this isn't my decision to make, I'll have to talk to Jo4n about it.

The main page got messed up so many times today... I think it should be at least protected to only be editable by registered users.

That's not a bad idea. It is done. Thanks for telling me.

Separate pages for Titan forms.
Shouldn't we try making separate pages for Eren's, Annie's, Betholdt's and Reiner's Titan form so as to avoid unintentional spoilers for Anime-only watchers and others who haven't caught up with the story. Not saying we should remove the Titan descriptions from their original pages, just that the colossal Titan should not redirect to Bertholdt Fubar and same for other Titans.

Also why not include a 'heavy spoilers' header on the top of the pages of Annie, Bertholdt and Reiner, asking the reader to read further only once they have caught up with the story?

Vandalism is getting out of hands
Simply block anon users from editing.

Official Name Translations.
Why is no one editing them yet? It was already confirmed though so I was wondering why no one's fixing the character name spellings.

At the moment, we're not following Kodansha USA's translation as official, unless there's a proof that it comes directly from the author. 20:25, September 5, 2013 (UTC)

The names will be taken from the Blu-Ray subtitles, which will supposedly also have English ones, if I understood correctly. When will the Blu-Ray-Discs be released? NeoSuperior (talk) 23:00, September 5, 2013 (UTC)

Concerning name translations, these appear to be official merchandise released by the company Contents Seed. All the names are translated, and seem to match Kodansha USA's translations.

So we can safely assume that these are the correct spellings at this point? I highly doubt offical merchandise will have misspellings. Nyanaba (talk) 16:30, September 28, 2013 (UTC)

I wouldn't be surprised if it's directly using Kodansha's translations though 17:30, September 28, 2013 (UTC)

Home
Is it just me, or do we have no home-button anywhere that leads us directly to the home-page? ("home-page" refers to the page that this is the talk page of) i.e. to get to the home-page, we have to manually write the adress into the adress bar everytime. I suggest the admins add a direct link somewhere, or alternatively tell where such a button is, if one should already exist. NeoSuperior (talk) 00:52, September 15, 2013 (UTC)

There's a 'Back to page' button on top of the talk page, under its title. 17:30, September 28, 2013 (UTC)

Background images
Sorry if this is the wrong place to ask, but I was wondering where the main background on the wiki is from? 155.99.216.213 03:09, October 13, 2013 (UTC)
 * It's official art by Isayama taken from the official site. And yes, this is the wrong place to ask; the correct place should be here.  h fc 2 X  03:53, October 13, 2013 (UTC)

Frame streched
I don't know if it is just me, but it seems the frame is too wide ever since the "christmas decorations" were added. It would be good if one of the admins could fix that. NeoSuperior (talk) 17:55, December 4, 2013 (UTC)


 * Since I'm having the same issue on every wikia I checked I think it's something the wikia itself did and thus possibly something beyond the admins' control. NoNickNeeded (talk) 18:07, December 4, 2013 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I also noticed it, but since not Misk nor I have touched the CSS, then I guess Wikia themselves will fix it in a few hours/days. If not, I will go and try to fix it.  h fc 2 X  18:12, December 4, 2013 (UTC)

Welcome to the first stage of the Darwin Project (read: useless and retarded updates or "let's fix things that aren't broken"), the 'Fluid Layout'. Now, the wikia's width enlarges or becomes smaller depending on the size of your screen. In other words, wikia has gotten rid of what made the Oasis skin so much better than Monobook. Not only that, they did some updates to CSS and I'm quite surprised that our background can still be viewed, because on UQ Holder wiki it completely disappeared on me and on FT wiki it reverted itself to the one that was used years ago.

tl;dr: Our main page, background and articles are fucked up because everyone views them different way depending on their screen size. Amusing, isn't it? 20:18, December 4, 2013 (UTC)


 * Oh and the best thing: This update is applied globally, we can't even decide or reject it or have any function to keep using the old Oasis. 20:20, December 4, 2013 (UTC)
 * So, I guess the solution will be that we all switch to Monobook then.  h fc 2 X  21:50, December 4, 2013 (UTC)


 * Monobook also adjusts the width according to your screen. 21:56, December 4, 2013 (UTC)
 * I never noticed, because there's no background. Not that it bothers me, though.  h fc 2 X  21:59, December 4, 2013 (UTC)
