Multiple Edits

Thank you for your contributions, most recently to Periphery. I have a small request to make: You are making very many small edits here - would it be possible to do combine the work into a single edit in the future? I suggest you use the "Preview" function to see your progress, and only save as a proper edit once you are through with the entire article. Personally, I even tend to make big edits offline and upload them in a single go. Frabby 23:23, 5 May 2009 (PDT)

Sorry for any inconvenience. After my dissertation, I like to save often. Also, I generally write according to train of thought, and I have been using the save function often in case FiOS goes down.--S.gage 02:26 6 May 2009

Good luck

...and hurry back. If you wants use/copy my wikibreak banner, feel free to copy & grab it. --Revanche ^{(talk|contribs)} 21:01, 20 July 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for the banner!--S.gage 22:56, 21 July 2009 (UTC)

Doneve and References request

Hi S.gage. I wanted to as a favor. Doneve been adding alot info to the timeline. Problem is not using the < Ref > template to link his reference information together. I'm not able to explain this very well to him since i sucky at german and translator doesn't seem communicate what i'm talking about to him. Can you talk to him and explain how to use ref templates? I can't link stuff and fix what done if can tell where he getting his information from. Since you seem to able talk to him way better than me, can you talk to him? Sincerely -- Wrangler 20:32, 2 November 2009 (UTC)

I wrote back, but I believe Frabby is also a German speaker. My German is, admittedly, very rusty - I have barely spoken or written in 8 years. Good luck--S.gage

Hey Wrangler, Doneve knows how to use the footnote function - Doneve gets caught up in writing. Honestly I can't blame Doneve, when I'm writing a lot, adding notes is a hassle. I am unsure when Doneve is planning on revisiting these changes (so for now, just read the whole books Doneve is citing ;) ). At Doneve's pace, I would not be surprised if the page citations are added sooner rather than later. Hope this helps!--S.gage 17:56, 3 November 2009 (UTC)

Awards board

Hey, S.gage: I saw you hadn't given yourself the Edit nor TIS ribbons, so I added them to your main page for you. Please place them where ever you find they fit best. --Revanche ^{(talk|contribs)} 21:58, 9 January 2010 (UTC)

Thanks Revanche!--S.gage 06:21, 17 January 2010 (UTC)

All Purpose Award

In lieu of the not-yet-existant Casual Edit award, here's the All Purpose Award for correcting my mistake with the Albion 'What links here' link. You possibly saved some new wiki readers a bit of confusion.

Thanks. --Revanche ^{(talk|contribs)} 17:00, 26 January 2010 (UTC)

No problem. I wish I had more time to write in BTW. Good luck!--S.gage 17:07, 26 January 2010 (UTC)

Founder's Honorable Mention Award

S.gage, I've added a Founder's Honorable Mention Award to your board. I know you're on a break right now, but your contributions over the last year were great! Thanks for being a part of our community! Nicjansma 06:44, 8 February 2010 (UTC)

Thank you Nic. Considering all of the work of all the other editors, this is truly an honor!--S.gage

Good Luck

'Nuff said. --Revanche ^{(talk|contribs)} 17:49, 8 March 2010 (UTC)

"C" Versions of 3025 mechs

S.gage - Nice work adding these variants to the pages, while also acknowledging on the "Talk" pages that their canon status is dubious at this point. Have a ! ClanWolverine101 21:26, 2 May 2010 (UTC)

Thank you!--S.gage 22:22, 2 May 2010 (UTC)

Hy

Hy S.gage nice to see you back on the wiki, i hope thinks work well for you.GreetingsDoneve 05:40, 5 May 2010 (UTC)

Hey, great to hear from you. I wanted to congratulate you on all of the edits you have made. Absolutely awesome!--S.gage 05:43, 5 May 2010 (UTC)

(1) and (2)

As you said the first Richard was Protector and the second only on his way to be considered for the Protectorship. My main reason for apply a (1) and (2) designation was to differntiate between their pages/links when I create the Richard (1) page. If there is another way such as Richard Calderon, Age of War and Richard Calderon, Civil War Era I would be glad to modify them to whichever standard you see fit. The (1) and (2) are place holders, not eternal. I did it quick and dirty...only so many hours to play before work takes me away.

I think the best idea is to start with a disambiguation page. Personally, beyond this, I don't know right now - anyone on the BTW have any suggestions?--S.gage 04:12, 27 June 2010 (UTC)

I just use "I" and "II" as needed, even when its not an actual succession. Consider "Brian Cameron", who was First Lord of the Star League, and "Brian Cameron", communications officer for Wolf's Dragoons. ClanWolverine101 04:47, 27 June 2010 (UTC)

The difficulty with that process, what happens when/if you get a third 'Brian' who may be in between the first two? We are talking about several hundred years of fictional history... and both Richard and Brian are common names. I have already crafted pages with the above discriptors.Deeppockets 15:16, 27 June 2010 (UTC)

How about using parentheses to distinguish between roles? "Richard Calderon (Age of War)" was a Protector, so why not "Richard Calderon I". The second Richard Calderon, Richard Calderon (Civil War Era), was born on a frontier world because his father, Felix, had chosen exile; therefore, "Richard Calderon (Exile)". What do you think?--S.gage 17:33, 27 June 2010 (UTC)

Holla

Hy S.gage, i think your Job Hunt project was successfully, i hope we see you back in next...next time. Greeting --Doneve 20:39, 9 May 2011 (UTC)

Hey Doneve, I'm doing OK. I pop in every once in a while, but work is keeping me really busy--S.gage 04:22, 10 May 2011 (UTC)

Award

Nice to see you back, with contributing, please put this award to your award board for your great work on the new created family tree pages, i like the trees so much.--Doneve 18:14, 8 June 2011 (UTC)

Thank you for the award! I had some time, and I had been meaning to do this for quite some time, but I'm not done yet. Wish me luck!--S.gage 20:52, 8 June 2011 (UTC)

Yes thank you very much for your work, I would not have been able to add so much to the Taurian Concordat if your framework had not been in place. Please accept this for allowing me to bring my faction up in this Wiki.Deeppockets 12:05, 5 July 2011 (UTC)
