Template & Picture Licensing Info
Hello BlazingStar and welcome to Hellsing wiki! Thank you for you contributions and question. It's allways great to see new people on. I added the OVA episodes template page, but being the person I am I made a typo on the title (-_-). I'll redo the page within the hour, but I just thought I'd say hi first. For future reference you start a new template in the same way you would start a normal page. The only difference is that its title must start with Template:. About the Picture Licensing, I apologize but I'm afraid I don't know too much about the subject. I would recomend checking Wikipedias page on their Image use policy. A link can be found here ---> Wikipedia:Image use policy Sorry if i'm not much help. Anyway thanks for joining. It looks like you'll be a big help to this wiki. -TheColorEarth

Evensong
Hello. It was me, Evensong, who posted that message on the discussion page of Alucard, and I have responded there. :)

Just four tildes? Damn dude. I spent 10 minutes trying to hyperlink my username to my page in the message I left for you.

Anyway, yeah it looked like this place was somewhat deserted. The Alucard discussion page was nearly blank. Scratch that, it was blank the time I posted there. You and he are the only one's active here? So with that I assume he's the 'admin' of this Wikia, no? Who has written the bulk of the content here?

I've never had the opportunity to check out Naruto or Bleach Wiki, but the sheer volume of the episodes or volumes of the manga is probably a contributing factor to that. Hellsing Wiki is actually a whole lot better than standard Wikipedia. The page on Alucard is around one third the info on the page here.

And I just noticed that the top of this page (in which I'm writing the message) there are instructions to post your signature. X(

Well, I'll try to help you out as much as I can, but I haven't read the manga. I've only seen the OVAs, and I'm desperately waiting for them to come out in English. Any idea if they'll even be released?

Evensong 19:10, March 7, 2010 (UTC)

The English versions aren't available at all, the reason being it hasn't been released in North America.

I tried to get into subs. A lot, really. The dubs come out far too late. But the English version has such unique voice actors. Like, you'll have guys with German accent, Integra has a decent British accent etc. I loathed Ingetra's Japanese voice "Seiyuu", is it called? Yeah, that I loathed. Plus, they don't speak English. They speak EngRish.

Have you read the manga fully btw?

Info Boxes
Hello Blazingstar! I saw on your main page that you were looking for help with info boxes, and unlike picture licensing I actually do know allot about them. An info box can be started from scratch by clicking the table button on your toolbar. However I wouldn't recommend starting an info box like that simply because it's a bit confusing and time consuming. Instead you should find an info box from another page, like Alucards, highlight the information, and copy and paste it into your page. Oddly enough the whole info box appears with it. After that it's really pretty easy. You can change the information and heading from the previous info box to make it apply to whatever character you are making it for. To change color, you can right click on the cell or row you want colored and then go to cell and cell properties. From there you can click on background color and make you cell/row whatever color you like. You can delete rows, cells and pictures by going to cells and delete cells. If you need any more information on info boxes then what I've said here please leave a message on my talkpage or go here -Help:Tables Have fun!

btw. The dark red that is common in most of the info boxes around this site is #990000

Admin Request Re.
Hello BlazingStar! Unfortunately I must apologize; only bureaucrat's can make other users admins. A bureaucrat is the status which is higher than an admin. They have the privilege to promote other users to administrator or bureaucrat status; grant and revoke an account's bot status; and rename user accounts. Unfortunately I'm not at that level yet and neither is anyone else on this wikia. This means that no one on this wiki actually has the power to promote users. I'm currently looking into this issue and asking users on other wikias for advice. I apologize for this inconvenience and will hopefully be able to get back to you soon.

TheColorEarth 20:58, March 30, 2010 (UTC)

Hello new admin!
Forget about the last post, I was actually appointed bureaucrat status when I adopted this wikia, and was just never told (doh!). Sorry about that. Anyway you're an admin now! You now have the following privliges...
 * 1) Accountcreator granting and revoking
 * 2) Rollback
 * 3) Protecting
 * 4) Protecting deleted pages
 * 5) Rollback granting and revoking
 * 6) Deleting
 * 7) Dealing with disputes
 * 8) Blocking
 * 9) Viewing deleted pages and contributions

Thanks for you contributions and Good Luck with you new adminship!

Redirecting
Hola BlazingStar! The fine art of redirecting is actually really simple. Create a page that you want to be the redirect (ex. Integra Hellsing) and write the number, REDIRECT, and the link to the original article (ex. Sir Integra Fairbrook Windgate Hellsing) So it would look like this: Yep, thats it. 'Bout time wikia made something simple isn't it? You can also make the link text different from it's link. This is done by highlighting the word selecting link and changing the link text section. So I can just write Jackal and still have it link me to the correct page. Anyway if you need any more help please leave a message on my talk page or go here: Wikipedia: Redirect. Oh yeah and here's a link to another redirect page:Seras Redirect
 * 1) REDIRECT Sir Integra Fairbrook Windgate Hellsing

See ya around!

User Greeting Re.
Hello again BlazingStar! Yes the reason that new users sometimes see a welcoming from you is because of you new "super-admin powers". Now that you are an admin both you and I rotate in the welcoming of new users. Every time a new person comes to this wiki, the user is automatically sent a welcome by an admin (or in my case a bureaucrat). Don't really worry about it; I think that you will be able to answer any questions just fine. Actually Congratulations, your one of the only three to ever send a welcome message on this wiki!

TheColorEarth 02:02, April 18, 2010 (UTC)

Hello, BlazingStar! Are you like the new category "Antagonists"?

Thank's for the welcome!^^
Thank's for welcoming me into this wiki, the only one I have found that doesn't seem to have a virus attatched! XD

Sorry I couldnt find any pictures of Enrico Stivaletti though. :(

Thank's again!

Main Page
If you would like the main page to be 100% width instead of what it is now you can do this: --Sxerks 01:11, May 4, 2010 (UTC)
 * copy the obsession code here and replace/paste it here: MediaWiki:Monaco.css
 * find the "@group Main Page" section in that code and remove the "body.mainpage div.monaco_shrinkwrap{....}" section.
 * SAVE
 * set the skin to custom

Recent activity and Yumie's Katana
Hello BlazingStar! I would first of all like to thank you for all the work that you've done in the last couple of days. It is much appreciated. While reading you recent Blog Posts (which are actually really helpful, I really should start one...) I noticed that you needed pages for manga volumes and chapters. So I'm going to start to make pages for volumes and also finish pages for the OVA episodes. I'm also going to start searching for those pictures you need. I have a suggestion too. Instead of making pages like Bayonets or Yumie's Katana how about we make one big "Section XIII Iscariot Weapons"? Or do you think that we will be able to add more Information to the Yumie's Katana page. I'm fine with either. I'm glad this wiki is finally really improving. It's exciting isn't it? Thanks for coming on in the first place by the way, I was getting so tired of almost no activity I was starting to give up on this wiki.

TheColorEarth 23:01, May 13, 2010 (UTC)

Re: Recent Activity
Yeah, I think we should definitely get around to writing where all of the anime and OVA episodes correspond to in the manga. Like, "This episode is chapters X-Y in Hellsing manga volume Z." Some of the other great anime-related wikis have that, and I think we should too. BTW, I am totally loving you for making the OVA pages! And they're wonderful quality! I'd like to add all of them to the Admin's Pick list, You is awesome. GO EARTH-SAN!!!

How about compromise- we could make a new category for "Iscariot Organization Weapons" or something? I'm afraid I've gotten really attached to the "weapons" category, so I feel that anything used as a weapon more than three times in combat should have it's own page. Like the katana. So far, I'm hoping someone will just come along and fill in the page. You never know, sometimes the individual weapons themselves have fans. (I met a fan of the Jackal online once.) So it could totally happen, that page could just magically fill itself.
