Job Requests[]

Hi Darinor, how many job requests can we take at one time? All of us wanted to know so I came to ask you about it. I luv Fairy TailHi! 08:59, May 10, 2012 (UTC)

"Sigh" Guess you don't have a given limit of Jobs, especially seeing as the Guild hasn't existed for even a day and yet some of you guys managed to complete several requests... :P

I think the only limits you could impose yourselves should come from common sense. I'd advise you not to get overloaded with requests for both a matter of stress and to show respect for fellow guildmates who could be interested in jobs you might have taken for yourselves, but might not currently be handling. It depends on you, I don't have any special limit I'd like to set. If you think you can handle tons of work and greatly improve grammar around here... Then please do ;)

Your Master.

...

Hell.

Think that only works for Ishthak... :P

There we go...[]

Alright guys, we made it. The Grammar Guild is, at last, up. I've heard that many of you were eager for such a guild to exist... And now it exists. Guess that's a nice starting point.

Fine, first of all I'd like to welcome you all, and thank you for choosing to give this newborn project a try. So, WELCOME AND THANK YOU FOLKS! OTA, SPEED BOATS FOR EVERYONE! =D

For those of you who might not know or were too stupid to actually read the names in the members' list xD, I'm your Guild Master, Aldarinor. Feel free to call me DaRinor, Al, Ald, Pops, Oyaji, Thunder God or simply Master xD

I'd like the atmosphere in our group to be a cosy and relaxed one. Feel no urge to finish your jobs in a hurry, don't overdo it, and don't get yourselves stressed over grammar. Take all the time you need to do what you're doing. If you want a job to be added to the list, simply leave me a message, and we'll be free to discuss how much Jewels should the given job be worthy. All the jobs you do will be checked and will grant you the settled amount of Jewels... If the tasks you complete aren't checked as soon as I'm around the site, just remember that I'm a mere human being like you guys (did I just make a gaffe by saying that you're all humans or I'm fine? :P)! Don't worry, all the jobs you handle will eventually be examined, and your efforts rewarded! ;)

If issues or important decisions to be taken were to show up, I'd like to avoid settling them myself as the Master, instead making use of community votations to settle things. We're a guild, aftr all. All of you guys have the same rights... Though particularly capable writers who were to prove their worth might aspire to the élite title of S-Class Mage. I'm afraid it won't be possible for EVERYONE to make it to such rank, since a guild can't be composed exclusively of S-Class Mages... Still, I might entrust the decision to you, making you guys vote which users you'd like to be recognized for their achievements. Know, however, that élite Mages won't have significant special privileges, and, in turn, will be harrassed and overworked by the undersigned...

Just kidding xD

...

... Or not? xD

Anyhow, as for you guys, remember to stand tall, since we're currently the most populated Guild on the entire site... The day of our fondation. Hell yeah, that's the way! You are Mages of the Grammar Guild, the Shadowy Checkers, Unseen Commandos who make the site better with simple, non-flashy edits...

... To make it short, you're the Aldarinor Pirates (アルダリノル海賊団 Arudarinoru Kaizokudan)! =D

...

Yes, that's it. Remember that if the first three nicknames are debatable, the fourth ISN'T!

Let's go, guys!

Lucy Heartfilia Page[]

Master, I'm almost done with Lucy's page but I can't complete it because the Key of the Starry Sky arc is empty. I haven't watched that part of the anime yet so I can't update it. (_ _) D'you think anyone can help me?
    AloisShiro-chan 06:47, May 15, 2012 (UTC)

Sure thing! Guess you could ask for Ota's help, since she follows EXCLUSIVELY the anime and writes reviews about the episodes every week... If Ota was busy (something which sadly enough seems to be the case recently, poor gal... School's a burden for everyone 'round here :P), you might ask Carrot... And if Carrot was busy or didn't want to, well, think I could try and help you out myself... ;)

-- Aldarinor Laxus Sprite Talk  Contribs  13:27, May 15, 2012 (UTC)

Got it. Carrot can help me out! :)
    AloisShiro-chan 12:58, May 17, 2012 (UTC)

It's settled then! ;)

Take note: Request[]

Hello Master Aldarinor, could you please add some jobs on the request board, as I can't find any vacant jobs available? Thank you.

From: Laven Heartfilla

Is there any particular job you'd like to have? If yes, how much would you want for it?

-- Aldarinor Laxus Sprite Talk  Contribs  17:14, May 18, 2012 (UTC)

Maybe...... Jellal Fernandes? Or something that is suitable for new mages? Jewels......you may decide the amount according to my job. Thanks for replying......

From: Laven Heartfilla

... Jellal's already on the board, and, most importantly, has already been taken by Carrot... -.-

-- Aldarinor Laxus Sprite Talk  Contribs  19:28, May 18, 2012 (UTC)

Then, Master can just put any job there as long as it is vacant....... --Laven 01:52, May 19, 2012 (UTC)

I'm the one supposed to place them there, given that I have to add Jewels... But if you guys want to place jobs yourselves WITHOUT adding the amount of Jewels and then discuss it with me, then I think you can proceed.

-- Aldarinor Laxus Sprite Talk  Contribs  07:33, May 19, 2012 (UTC)

Take note: No job Available!!!!![]

To: Master

Please add Juvia Lockser as a job in the request board ..... Thanks...... --Laven Heartfilla 16:07, May 20, 2012 (UTC)

Hey...[]

hey master darinor can u put in more jobs. Gemini PNGAnimaltamer7Gemini

I've added several jobs to the list, though I'd rather have you guys ask me to add a GIVEN job you'd like to handle and to suggest the amount of rewarded Jewels for it...

-- Aldarinor Laxus Sprite Talk  Contribs  14:28, May 16, 2012 (UTC)

Tenses[]

'Noon folks, Master speaking.

I'd like to remind/inform you guys that the tense we're supposed to be using on articles is the PRESENT, and that PAST tenses should only be placed in characters' History sections... I also employ them to a certain degree with "Personality" and "Magic and Abilities", but only if I'm recounting an instance related to what I'm describing (Random Trivia Moment :P).

So, well... Keep up the good work and remember that Present's the right time and the one which will get you candies.

-- Aldarinor Laxus Sprite Talk  Contribs  13:15, May 24, 2012 (UTC)

I just read this now What about the issue with the captions, Cap'n; the period, and the form of the verbs? Since our Wiki is known for it's uniformity (I think so), it should be the same for the pictures too, IMO. Should we caption with gerunds or infinitives; and should there be periods, or none?
    AloisShiro-chan 03:28, May 29, 2012 (UTC)

I tend to use the present continuous for captions (if by captions you mean the writings placed in thumbs below pictures, that is...). An example would be this:

Laxus fighting in melee

Laxus fighting in melee

I do so because what the picture shows, in some way, is "always happening" due to the image's presence on the page, and thus I think it should be described as such.

The "period matter" we talked about should be discussed further though.

Jobs[]

Mornin' folks.

Hope you went through the previous post regarding tenses :P

As you might have realized by yourselves, there's a huge pile of completed Jobs waiting to be checked. You guys REALLY worked hard, and I'm particularly proud of some of you (not giving names though, I'll let you think about them yourselves).

Point is, I won't be correcting those Jobs in the immediate future.

"Why?", you might be asking.

The answer is simple: because my final exams are getting nearer and nearer, and I need to pass with a mark good enough to enter the special facilities of the college I'd like to attend. Something which might take some dedication to be achieved. Here's the matter.

"What about our Jobs then? Who the fuck will be checking them? How will we know who got the Mage of the Month title, uh?". This might likely be your next question.

What to say... You guys can either wait and learn the answer in some time (and for "some time" I mean "SOME TIME", since my exams won't be finished before the first weeks of July, and then I'd like to go on holyday with my friends... Sorry if I'm human too :P) or... You can check them among you guys, by having a look at each other's work. That would likely be the best solution (for those of you who are not experiencing a situation similar to mine, that is... For those who were... Guys, it's really a pain in the ass, isn't it?). Some members, namely Ultra and Alois (yup, giving names this time) already offered me their help in checking stuff... As I said, you guys can do the same, wait SOME TIME, or stage a coup d'etat and kick me out and find yourself a Guild Master with more free time at his/her disposal.

Uff, I'm done :P

Toodles.

Guild Issues[]

Salutations, my fellow Mages! I am the guild's resident evil Onion, Alois! And before any of you go bat-shat crazy on why a mere Mage like myself is posting something like this on the talk page, I got consent from DaRinor-sama, okay!? *Defensive*

So! As you know, Ultra-san and I have been helping the Captain double-check the pages you guys have finished, before finally marking them as Complete, and tagging them under the Completed Archive. In the few pages I have checked, there are a few issues things which, while not exactly what you'd call mistakes, I have noticed to be quite odd/out of place.

Number one: the multiple-links. This is, of course, not our doing, but of the ones who originally created/updated the article. But as Mages whose jobs are to correct after said articles, this automatically becomes a part of our responsibilities as well. So boring lectures on the importance of our roles as Grammar Guild Mages aside, the point is that double-links are unnecessary, and of course, should could be taken down. An example is that if Natsu Dragneel has already been mentioned once in the beginning paragraph of an article, there's no need to link Natsu anymore, in the succeeding ones.

Number two: Me and the Master kind of have disagreeing views on this (as with the one above and a lot of things too), but there's also the matter of including or excluding apostrophes in the links. Should we decide on this? Well we're a democratic community, are we not? So let's vote on this! *Cue: Background of the National Flag of whichever country you're from*

To include, or not include. That is the question! Also, Rai-sempai, as our Supervisor, what's your take on this?

Number three: periods in captions. So Cap'n and I both agree that captions look better with periods, as it makes the text look complete, and not just a hanging phrase. Also, as what he said, most other Wikis put periods in their captions, unlike with ours. Since there is an inconsistency with some captions ending with a period, while others don't, it kind of goes against our Wiki's typical uniformity. My vote goes to putting period.

Number four: tense/form of the verb in captions. Since events are portrayed in the present tense, it's natural that the captions be written in the same format as well (I've seen some supposedly completed pages that still had past tense!). Cap'n said using present progressive (meaning, verbs end in -ing) is much better, since it depicts the picture like it is happening in the present. Unfortunately, there are still a lot of captions that are in the simple present tense, so there is an inconsistency. Yet. Again.

Alright, fellow GG Mages! Give me your takes on these matters above, so that I can finally be at peace since I'm the only one being egged on by them we may settle them once and for all! And I better see four answers, after all the effort I put on this! XD *Ignores all the incredulous, why-the-fudge-did-you-even-bother-with-this-if-you're-gonna-complain stares you're all giving me*

    AloisShiro-chan 14:38, June 1, 2012 (UTC)

1.Support Support - We should exclude the apostrophes because, in source mode it's longer.. Maybe we should add periods in captions if it is needed..(For sentences) And exclude them if it's only a phrase.. JeRza Leave A Message Talk! 10:44 AM, 6/2/2012

2.Support Support - I think we should exclude apostrophes in the links as it looks funny and maybe it will confuse the readers. One question, what is periods in captions?

--Lucy 12th openinh Laven (Talk)    15:06, June 3, 2012 (UTC)

Basically, we just put periods in the text under the pictures. It's like this, Laven-chan.
