08:04.51 | Halopediaman | Anyone aboot who has knowledge of working with images on a wiki? |
08:20.16 | Ghelae | Halopediaman: What kind of knowledge do you need? |
08:25.11 | Halopediaman | There was a fellow having issue with a template. The exact piece was: "I try to describe the image as a game screenshot but I don't know how to do that in the template." |
08:25.35 | Halopediaman | I don't even know if you can help with that Ghelae, given it's a totally different wiki, but I figured I'd try to help the guy. |
08:28.30 | Ghelae | I'd have to see what the template is to know how to deal with that. |
08:29.18 | Ghelae | It sounds like there's a variable in the template that can be set to describe the image, with "game screenshot" not being a valid option. |
08:30.39 | Halopediaman | I see, so I should tell them to get in contact with a wiki admin then? |
08:31.44 | Ghelae | They could do. If there's no chance of me seeing the template and knowing exactly what they're trying to do then I can't help any more. |
08:44.33 | Halopediaman | Is there a way I could give it to you? |

12:32.28 | TheImperios | Hachiman: Ciscaucasia is an actual place in Russia |
12:32.34 | TheImperios | It's a synonym for "North Caucasus" |
12:33.50 | TheImperios | Ji Monet |
12:34.08 | AdmiralPanda | "Yes keep killing the Shimazu, I mean those guys are cool but they're Christian so they need to die" - basically every Shogun 2 player ever, in this case quoted from the you tuber I'm watching |
12:34.12 | TheImperios | Hachiman: This sounds more like /fit/ than /tg/ |
12:34.37 | Hachiman | >Christian Samurai |
12:34.46 | Hachiman | I have only ever heard of this |
12:35.07 | AdmiralPanda | Kyushu was full of htem |
12:35.42 | AdmiralPanda | during the Sengoku Jedai Christian influence pervaded the Shimazu and Shoni clans, part of the reason people didn't exactly like them |
12:36.00 | TheImperios | Which is why they later got kicked out |
12:36.21 | Hachiman | Huh so Western influence affected Japan prior to the Restoration |
12:36.26 | AdmiralPanda | oh yeah |
12:36.42 | AdmiralPanda | I mean the gun alone redefined Japanese warfare |
12:38.23 | TheImperios | They even tried to conquer us with them |
12:38.32 | TheImperios | BUT FAILED |
12:38.39 | AdmiralPanda | correction, they threw away spare soldiers :P |
12:38.48 | AdmiralPanda | the invasion of Korea was never actually supposed to succeed |
12:39.38 | TheImperios | Dammit Panda, stop ruining epic moments in history like this hur |
12:39.55 | AdmiralPanda | but yeah, in Shogun 2 the Shoni, and the Shimazu if the latter are AI, will go Christian, and it's annoying as fuck |
12:40.48 | AdmiralPanda | they get their bloody imported matchlock ashigaru, and when you capture their provinces it takes forever to de-Christianise them so you don't have to put up with tons of extra unhappiness |
12:41.09 | Hachiman | >Christianity leads to unhappiness |
12:41.26 | AdmiralPanda | not being the clan religion leads to unhappiness* |
12:41.48 | AdmiralPanda | if a Christian clan captures a Shinto-Buddhist or Ikko province, they're unhappy until they become Christian |
12:41.59 | MonetAway | And the alternative iirc is to adopt CHristianity which makes everyone else like you less. |
12:42.35 | AdmiralPanda | mhm, and there's no point to being Christian because it makes every province you capture really unhappy, the units you get for it are useless and you can't establish diplomacy for shit :P |
12:43.25 | AdmiralPanda | if you have the Sengoku Jedai unit pack and the extra clan DLCs then the Shoni can be viable going Christian because Nanban Trade Ships, but that's it really |
12:43.34 | MonetAway | Diplomat - We don't want ot associate ourselves with those who fall to the ways of scary gaijin |
12:43.58 | MonetAway | Wait is it gaijin or gaiju? |
12:44.03 | TheImperios | Gaijin |
12:44.08 | TheImperios | Kaiju is a monster |
12:44.13 | MonetAway | ohlol |
12:44.15 | AdmiralPanda | even the Shimazu get their SJU just from technology, the Heavy Gunner |
12:44.58 | Hachiman | Gaijin = Foreigner |
12:45.02 | Hachiman | Kaiju = Monster |
12:45.06 | Hachiman | The same thing really |
12:45.39 | AdmiralPanda | hey now, the Nanban give us money, it's just not nice when they give us their religion too |
12:46.28 | AdmiralPanda | the one thing I don't get is why you need Cotton to train elite Yari units |
12:46.47 | Hachiman | hur |
12:47.27 | AdmiralPanda | I mean, high quality iron for elite Katana units? Makes sense. Superior warhorses? Makes sense. Incense for the monks? Makes sense. Cotton? Who the fuck knows XD |
12:47.37 | MonetAway | Elite Yari - Not working for you without nice clothes. |
12:48.39 | TheImperios | AdmiralPanda: Elite Yari - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R-JBaCpiAxo&list=PL93ADD3FDECE00D6C&index=61 |
12:48.50 | AdmiralPanda | I do still find it endlessly funny that, as I mostly play Shimazu when not playing as the Oda, my armies conquer Japan primarily with a sidearm |
12:50.01 | AdmiralPanda | the Shimazu being the katana cultists |
12:51.06 | AdmiralPanda | a standard army for me consists of two generals, six katana samurai units, four no-dachi samurai units, six bow ashigaru units (later matchlock ashigaru) and four yari cavalry units, but most of the fighting is done by katana and no-dachi |
12:53.38 | AdmiralPanda | funnily enough I actually employ Zulu tactics, everything except the yari cavalry are committed at the start of the fight, katanas in the middle, no-dachi charging the flanks; then if the battle shifts I can delegate the yari cavalry units to throw the balance in my favour |
12:55.27 | Hachiman | Huh nice |
12:56.01 | AdmiralPanda | when playing the Oda I basically do the same thing just with way more ashigaru |
12:57.08 | TheImperios | AdmiralPanda: The Buffalo horns/loins/chest thing? |
12:57.29 | AdmiralPanda | two general units, two yari cavalry, six bow ashigaru, eight yari ashigaru and two naginata samurai |
12:57.32 | AdmiralPanda | TheImperios: The same |
12:57.50 | TheImperios | The same? |
12:57.53 | AdmiralPanda | it's honestly one of the best ways to arrange a battle |
12:58.10 | AdmiralPanda | the same, as in yes the same horns/lions/chest strategy |
12:58.38 | TheImperios | Ah |
12:59.16 | AdmiralPanda | the katana or yari as the chest, the no-dachi or naginata as the horns and the cavalry as the loins |
13:00.06 | Hachiman | So according to this video about the history of the Sengoku Jidai and its major commanders, characters such as Oda Nobunaga, Toyotomi Hideyoshi, and Tokugawa Ieyasu were not actually called by these names consistently throughout the war |
13:00.07 | AdmiralPanda | it's kinda sad that all the other clans basically do the same strategy just worse |
13:00.21 | AdmiralPanda | Hachiman: Yup, they upgraded their names as they upgraded in rank |
13:00.44 | Hachiman | That sounds both really cool and highly confusing hur |
13:00.44 | AdmiralPanda | as I recall the Toyotomi and Tokugawa clans didn't actually exist before the SJ |
13:01.34 | AdmiralPanda | Hideyoshi has one of the coolest stories of the SJ in my opinion tbh |
13:02.22 | Hachiman | Tokugawa did exist prior to the SJ in the form of the Matsudaira |
13:02.36 | AdmiralPanda | or was it Ieyasu? One of them started as Oda Nobuhide's sandal-bearer, apparently he was really good at sandal-bearing so he got made Minister for Development (basically the guy who goes around building castles) and he was really good at that so he got given his own clan basically |
13:03.03 | AdmiralPanda | I think it was Hideyoshi |
13:03.18 | MonetAway | Hachiman Imperios: What would you say were the leading Divinariium and Brood groups in reverse engineering Grox tech during the Andromeda War? |

13:04.56 | Hachiman | Aye |
13:05.12 | TheImperios | Hm |
13:05.28 | AdmiralPanda | in fact it was directly due to Hanzo that he survived one of those ridiculous situations |
13:06.16 | AdmiralPanda | as I recall, while he was fleeing pursuit his ninja dressed up as boatsmen, hid Ieyasu in a sack of grain and sailed down the river; the guards at the checkpoint stabbed the bag and pierced his leg- he didn't make a sound, and calmly wiped the blade with his pant leg as it came out |

13:15.57 | AdmiralPanda | "I have never heard an honest man say a good thing of the Hattori, unless he has a Hattori knife at his back!" "I have often wondered who leads a Takeda army, but then I realised: when everyone is an idiot it doesn't matter who leads!" |
13:16.26 | AdmiralPanda | "These Hojo are not warriors; they would rather be drinking and whoring in their castles than fighting!" |
13:16.38 | MonetAway | The pre-battle speeches? |
13:16.41 | AdmiralPanda | yeah |
13:16.44 | MonetAway | I loved those i nMediaval II |
13:17.03 | AdmiralPanda | I do love them even if occasionally they're a bit derpy |
13:17.36 | AdmiralPanda | "Our only vulnerability in this battle is that we lack artillery" - Well no shit mate, we're running people down over an open field with no defensive structures, why would we bring a siege train? |
13:17.53 | TheImperios | God I am confused |
13:19.40 | MonetAway | "The MIlanese have trouble lifting up a bag of coin, let alone a sword" |
13:20.35 | TheImperios | Didn't they have cool mercenaries? |
13:21.56 | MonetAway | >Mercenaries |
13:22.12 | MonetAway | AKA not neccesserily the actual actual Milanese citizens. |
13:25.12 | MonetAway | The italian city states were often too small to support offensive armies. So they'd hire mercenaries who traveleed from places like France, Spain, Poland, Austria or wherever to Italy for a chance to earn salaries amde on bankers' fortunes |
13:25.46 | AdmiralPanda | or if you were Venice you just bought a crusade |
13:26.40 | MonetAway | In Medieval II this is represented by Venice and Milan not having castles (which produce proper soldiers as opposed to militia) in their homelands. |
13:28.31 | MonetAway | I always played Venice, so if I wanted dedicated troops I had two places to train them: Either Montenegro or Crete. |
13:29.57 | MonetAway | So I often spent my games fighting primarily with well-armoured militia. |
13:31.02 | Hachiman | So wait |
13:31.22 | Hachiman | The Ikko-Ikki were Shinto-Buddhists yet they were militant at the same time |
13:31.34 | Hachiman | I though Buddhists prohibited violence from their lifestyles hur |
13:31.35 | AdmiralPanda | they were radical Shinto-Buddhists yes |
13:31.47 | AdmiralPanda | they had their own sectarian (I think that's the right word) beliefs |
13:32.14 | AdmiralPanda | that said, pretty much everyone in Japan was Shinto-Buddhist |
13:32.34 | AdmiralPanda | somewhere along the line they forgot about the whole no violence thing |
13:32.51 | Monet | :humans: |
13:32.52 | Hachiman | hur |
13:33.37 | Monet | Venice was...ambitious with its rivals |
13:33.47 | AdmiralPanda | well it was probably when the Shinto got added to the Buddhist |
13:35.02 | Monet | You had Milan, part of the Holy Roman Empire, Byzantium - who until their successors were the largest terriotorial power in Europe - and I think they had some rivalry with the Ottomans |
13:36.17 | Monet | Venice and Byzantium spent most of their time arguing over who was the master of the Mediterranian. |

14:25.27 | Hachiman | TheImperios: When the Samurai Clans of Japan decided to attempt to instigate an invasion into China in order to get rid of additional soldiers that were left without stuff to do after Japan was unified under a Shogun, which led to the invasion of Korea, the Japanese would bring back the heads of their enemies overseas as proof of their deaths |
14:26.33 | Hachiman | However because so many people died during the Korean invasion, the Japanese found that shipping heads back to Japan was a pain in the back so instead they cut off the noses of their enemies which were significantly easier to ship, and there is actually a monument in Mimizuka to the mound of noses they gathered from the Korean invasion |

15:19.07 | Hachiman | As while the Brood is an attempt at a unified state, there are still a fair number of divided Zazane nations throughout the Gigaquadrant |

16:50.55 | TheImperios | Do you have nutty conservatives like that in UK too |
16:53.05 | Hachiman | Not really, our society would not allow for it hur |
16:53.26 | Hachiman | The UK is more aimed towards Islamaphobia than it is anti-Semitism |

17:07.15 | Hachiman | Oh |
17:07.18 | Hachiman | No not yet |
17:07.26 | TheImperios | So let me put that straight |
17:07.38 | TheImperios | We have 14 million more Muslims than you do |
17:07.42 | TheImperios | And yet you still hate them more |
17:08.22 | Hachiman | Yep |
17:09.35 | Wormy_ | Depends where you are, I think |
17:10.38 | Monet | Are there Muslims in Russia trying to illegaly enforce the Sharia Law? |
17:11.22 | Wormy_ | I can'rt help but feel our media has a degree of fearmongering |
17:11.48 | Monet | It's not a perception, its a fact. |
17:11.52 | TheImperios | Pure Sharia? Save for some terrorists, doubt that |
17:12.14 | Monet | In London we have vigilantes trying to enforce it. |
17:12.40 | Monet | Reports of Muslim men gathering in patrols and harassing any woman not covering their heads and anyone they see drinking. |
17:12.51 | TheImperios | Punch them in da face |
17:12.52 | Hachiman | Aye |
17:13.09 | Monet | TheIMperios: The Met is cracking down, certainly. |
17:13.15 | TheImperios | Different regions of Russia have slightly different laws though |
17:13.36 | Hachiman | As much as I do not wish to say it, there are a lot of negative impacts due to having a large and prominent Islamic populace |
17:13.46 | Monet | Scotland Yard are treating these vigilantes as yet another street gang. |
17:14.09 | TheImperios | There is always a negative impact when another population enters your country through whatever means |
17:14.19 | TheImperios | En masse, at least |
17:14.31 | Wormy_ | Monet: Good |
17:14.54 | Hachiman | Which includes our government and local councils attempting to slam some practices and traditions that were in place before Islamic prominence due to wanting to keep everything "politically correct" |
17:14.55 | Wormy_ | No doubt it will breed racism however |
17:15.31 | TheImperios | Our Muslim scholars actually stood up *against* instituting Shari'a laws |
17:15.36 | Wormy_ | I certainly think multi-culturalism was practised very poorly by the councils etc. |
17:16.01 | Hachiman | Which includes prohibiting the usage of "Merry Christmas" on cards and such in exchange for "Season's Greetings" or "Happy Holidays" and forcing people to take down Christmas decorations they had set up outside of their homes in case they "offended" anybody |
17:16.13 | Hachiman | Alongside other such ridiculous attempts at being PC |
17:16.59 | TheImperios | Our High Mufti, even |
17:17.11 | Wormy_ | Well I know an example. One city council stopped putting up Christmas lights because it might offend a Jewish community. But this *did* offend the Jewish community, because they felt they weren't being integrated. |
17:17.14 | TheImperios | Which is an important title |
17:17.20 | TekDroid | Hachiman: Well over here our schools have implemented an effective ban on any reference to Christmas |

17:21.00 | Hachiman | The British media fearmongers news regarding Afghanistan and we have had public executions and murders take place IN OUR COUNTRY that were committed by Muslim extremists which reflects badly on everyone else |

17:22.28 | Hachiman | Yes but at least we settled our disputes with our neighbours now |
17:22.43 | drom | Aye. It is so cool that I'm considering it as a natural trait among Nomatarians |
17:23.08 | TheImperios | That's because invading France would be too boring hur |

17:23.48 | TheImperios | We do not want to take all of Ukraine |
17:23.48 | Hachiman | Not for the Ukrainians |
17:24.02 | Monet | Hachiman: I mean for Russians |
17:24.05 | TheImperios | Just Crimea and Donbass if we're lucky, maybe Odessa |
17:24.20 | TheImperios | Basically the mostly Russian-speaking/Russian culture territory |
17:24.30 | Monet | WWI was so horrible Europeans decided to stop the petty wars because of how horrible they'd become |
17:24.53 | TheImperios | Though we won't have it because we do not want further shit getting stirred |
17:25.06 | TheImperios | Right now we just want to keep Crimea and do not let Ukraine join NATO |
17:25.19 | Monet | Back efoe 1900 land was being changed hands all the time |
17:26.10 | TheImperios | If we'd like to separate countried by cultural/linguistic barriers, it'd be problemtic for Ukraine |

17:31.36 | TheImperios | While we could have some of North Kazakhstan |

18:37.33 | Monet | But so far every market crash, from the 1929 Great Depression to the 2008 recession have one thing in common: They were characterised by several years of people going on an all-out spending spree. |
18:38.10 | Monet | Before the crash happened |
18:38.50 | Monet | And most of the m(at least) are characterised by speculators being os confident they almost forget that with every up comes a down. |
18:42.27 | Monet | Although the cirumstances of the South Sea Bubble's origins soudns a little like what the Weimar Republic did. |
18:43.14 | Monet | It needed money fast, so it took a very dangerosu decision. For England it was "X trading company pays off our debt", for Weimar it was "print money" |
18:44.53 | Hachiman | What was wrong with printing money? |
18:45.29 | Monet | You get Zimbabwe. |
18:45.49 | TheImperios | Hachiman: Because without any goods to support it, money loses its value if there's a lot of it |
18:47.50 | Monet | You print money to pay off your defecits -> rule of demand states that as you print more money, the value of it goes down -> you print more money to compensate for the devaluation -> Money loses value further -> repeat until 1bln of the currency is what it takes to buy a loaf of bread. |
18:48.19 | Monet | Money has its own measure of supply and demand. ANd as demand for something increases, so does the value of it. |
18:49.18 | Monet | By the 1920s Weimar republic was building paper mill after paper mill until there was at least one in every town |
18:51.30 | Monet | Printing money is fine |
18:51.47 | Monet | Its when you print it for the sake of giving yourself more of it that things get complicated. |
18:56.34 | Monet | In the case of the Republic, they were asked to pay the 1919 equivilent of £56 billion |
18:56.41 | Monet | for war damages |
18:57.13 | Hachiman | Bloody hell |
18:57.32 | Monet | So yeah they wanted to pay off the debt fast |
18:58.21 | Monet | Unfortunately the post-payoff consequence was that there were an enormous number of German Marks floating around. |
18:59.00 | Monet | And as a result, prices in the Weimar Republic skyrocketed. |

19:13.48 | drom | TheImperios: We were at once this black long long time ago. |
19:14.06 | TheImperios | Wormy_: I remember seeing an article describing the Neanderthals' extinction in modern terms, condemning homo sapiens for genocide |
19:15.45 | HachiAway | If we cannot handle civilisation being divided by race and culture, imagine how badly we would fare if the Neanderthals survived to establish their own nations and such alongside human civilisation into the modern day |
19:17.19 | drom | Homo sapiens are also the only race that by non-natural means or instincts premit genocide of their own race. |
19:19.32 | HachiAway | It is like you have never researched into squirrels before |
19:20.14 | TekDroid | HachiAway: Though in that situation its quite possible the divides would be more between species rather than human racial ethnic groups. |
19:21.36 | Hachiman | There have been a number of concerns raised by conservationist groups within the UK towards the issue of native red squirrels suffering from their population lowering due to affronts placed upon them by larger and far more prosperous, invasive gray squirrels |
19:22.34 | Hachiman | Humanity is not the only species with an inclination towards the utter destruction of groups within their own species |
19:23.05 | Monet | Engaginf in efforts to wip eout the competition is an effective survival actic. |
19:23.10 | Monet | engaging in* |
19:23.29 | drom | I'm not talking about destruction/extinction of other species or animal races but their own kin. |
19:24.30 | Hachiman | So am I and yes I do recognise that red and gray squirrels are separate species however I believe they are close enough physiologically to be used as an appropriate example |
19:24.55 | Hachiman | Dolphins and apes perform similar activities |
19:24.56 | Monet | WHat about chimpanzees? |
19:25.29 | Monet | Yeah, Chimps can be pretty violent |
19:25.44 | drom | Hm, I've never heard of that. I usually read more about them more personalized and civil against each other. |
19:25.47 | Hachiman | Chimpanzees and other relative species of primates are known for the regular decimation and destruction of other groups of primates of the same species |
19:26.37 | Hachiman | And dolphins are almost exactly the same |
19:27.08 | Monet | Its eugenics effectively |
19:27.36 | Monet | You gaurentee the survival of your own family by eradicating families that you'd compete with for resources. |
19:28.10 | TekDroid | Indeed |
19:28.38 | Monet | So in answer to the question, if Neanderthals hadn't died out, there'd still be ethnic discrimination. |
19:28.49 | drom | Yep. Unfortunately this applies to us as well, when it comes to politics and demography. |
19:29.44 | Monet | Whatever scale of social structure you look at, there's competition. |
19:30.14 | Monet | be it between species, regional collectives, families or even members of a family. |
19:30.53 | drom | Isn't this kind of behaviour common among territoral animals as well, violating/unrespecting a family/specimen's territory? |
19:31.28 | Hachiman | Yes |
19:31.55 | TekDroid | Inter-species or intra-species, at its core all conflict is about ensuring the betterment and survival of your own. |
19:33.13 | TheImperios | Hachiman: "There have been a number of concerns raised by conservationist groups within the UK towards the issue of native red squirrels suffering from their population lowering due to affronts placed upon them by larger and far more prosperous, invasive gray squirrels" |
19:34.17 | TheImperios | Nope, the grey squirrels are merely protecting the rights of other grey squirrels in red squirrel dens after their alpha has been overthrown by an evil Nazi human-collaborator junta |
19:34.44 | Hachiman | dum |
19:35.22 | TheImperios | That was a joke hur |

20:47.41 | Technobliterator | It is true that the last Tzar of Russia was an imbecil |
20:47.43 | Technobliterator | e |
20:47.54 | Technobliterator | Nicolas the Second was a right dumbass |

20:48.36 | TheImperios | Technobliterator: Not outright an imbecile as much as just incompetent and dim |
20:48.59 | TheImperios | He WOULD be a good... say... military officer, but he had neither the character nor the will to govern an empire |
20:49.10 | Technobliterator | He was ridiculously out of touch, and made horrible, horrible military decisions |
20:49.23 | Ghelae | The way Hachi's worded that question makes me think it means Russians have a vital need for beer and pretzels and will die if they go for one day without them. |
20:49.24 | Technobliterator | Not to mention no one liked him : | |
20:49.49 | TheImperios | Hachiman: And the Khodynka... yes, that happened because of poor organisation, half of the coming citizen were stomped by the crowds |

20:59.16 | External | So I just decided to upload the images 1 by 1. I succeeded. |
20:59.41 | Ghelae | Hello. |
20:59.59 | Technobliterator | You should ideally be adding categories to everything you upload |
21:00.14 | Technobliterator | On most wikis, the uploader is required to do this, but we don't require it here because we're lazy |
21:00.55 | Technobliterator | Thus, our Special:UncategorizedImages, and all our categories on the wiki in general, are an absolute mess and they're too far gone for anyone to fix them |
21:00.58 | Technobliterator | : | |
21:01.35 | Ghelae | A large portion of Special:UncategorizedImages is probably also in Special:UnusedFiles too. |
21:02.02 | Technobliterator | Well, that one's easier to weed out, because you know that it's useless |
21:02.37 | Technobliterator | http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Special:UnusedFiles I feel like all of these images do not have a use |

21:07.00 | Technobliterator | oh, I wonder if we could just make Creature et al namespaces content namespaces to have them show up |
21:07.20 | Ghelae | If that's possible it would be useful. |

21:23.59 | OluapPlayer | Tyrant - fuk off |
21:24.09 | Hachiman | Ouch, that was a literal curbstomp |
21:24.24 | Technobliterator | I would make a user subpage for those to keep them on |
21:24.25 | OluapPlayer | He was trying to fight the two biggest burly men on Cyrannus at once |
21:24.31 | OluapPlayer | Not really a good idea |
21:24.32 | Technobliterator | But I think they're too low quality to be kept |
21:24.38 | Hachiman | That battle could have been avoided if the Inquisitor had not made his presence known to them and attacked from behind |
21:24.38 | Ghelae | I also think I asked Val about deleting his pictures one time he came on IRC and he didn't want me to, but they can always be undeleted if he wants any back. |
