Mensa Logo[edit]
Welcome back HMSVictory! It's good to see you posting again. Having said that, I have a problem with the Mensa logo you uploaded. You've marked it as being in the public domain but the Mensa website has it marked with what looks like a ® - although it's hard to be sure. Using it in a Userbox would probably qualify as Fair Use but the version you've uploaded is rather big for such a purpose. I've proposed the existing version for deletion but if you were to upload a smaller version - more like the 40px wide you've specified - I'd say that would be okay. I thought I'd leave you to do that so you can make any edits you need to the image. —Rpeh•T•C•E• 12:38, 3 January 2008 (EST)
- This particular image is not actually owned by Mensa and was created by another unrelated site. This image was not taken from Mensa, neither is it used on its website. Anyway, there is a disclaimer in the members' area of the site which encourages raising awarness of Mensa, and this is fitting to hat purpose. As for the image's size, I could not obtain a smaller one in the same manner that was suitable for use here. I would also like to point out that if anyone here is a member of Mensa or would like to join, feel free to use it. --HMSVictory 12:45, 3 January 2008 (EST)
- It doesn't matter that the image was created elsewhere, the logo it depicts is still owned by Mensa. I've now created a smaller version and replaced it, also correcting the copyright. —Rpeh•T•C•E• 13:13, 3 January 2008 (EST)
- Sorry about that, but I'm certain that Mensa itself would approve of my actions. --HMSVictory 11:28, 4 January 2008 (EST)

Tamriel:Factions[edit]
Hello. I noticed your comment on my userpage. I don't have an indepth knowledge of what needs to be done at this second. However, if you wish to start out, look at Tamriel:Fighters_Guild. Notice especially how it has a description, then a short overview of each game. I don't remember doing Tamriel:Dark_Brotherhood, that wouldn't be a bad place to start. The minor guilds need more looking at on my part to see what needs to be there and what doesn't. Once I get done with my homework I'll look over it more.
If you have any questions, contact me. I'll be checking around everyonce in a while, but I'll come around after my calculus homework. Also, cool thing to try is UESPWiki:IRC. I'm normally on there. Try it out for giggles if you want. --Timmeh Talk 18:00, 3 January 2008 (EST)
Back again I am. I looked through the Major Factions (that is, the ones that are joinable in every game). What I like to see on major factions is a general description, which goes on the index page (the letter sorted pages), and a very general vision of the guilds role in each game, including links to the faction page in that particular game.
The Tamriel:Fighters_Guild is about finished. Could do with a few links and information about Arena. I don't think you've played Arena, so that will have to wait for now.
The Tamriel:Thieves_Guild, Tamriel:Dark_Brotherhood, and Tamriel:Mages_Guild only have a description. By the time you get to it, I'll have the description fixed if I hadn't did that before (I'm not sure if Playjex's old system is still in tact).
The Temples you shouldn't worry about. Most of them have a generic "This was in daggerfall, now it is just one big temple". I'm not worried about them.... for now....
Don't worry about the minor guilds for now. However, you might want to brainstorm about minor guilds in Oblivion, since that seems to be your forte. The Knights of the True Horn is (technically) a major guild because it exists in both Daggerfall and Oblivion, but I'll have to decide what to do about that.
So if you want, do what you can, and if you have any questions just ask. And don't be afraid to edit because of some imagined populace thinking your edits are stupid. It doesn't exist (except for me, everyone is out to get me.) --Timmeh Talk 22:57, 3 January 2008 (EST)
Ok. I've looked at your edits. They seem pretty good, keep it up. I'll go around sometime and make the Daggerfall section for them. --Timmeh Talk 01:16, 5 January 2008 (EST)
Umm? Welcome back![edit]
Hi HMSvictory. Before, I have seen that you were not active anymore on the Wiki. Now you're back. Welcome back! As Rpeh stated before, I also do not know you all too well except for your edits, so "Hi!" Have a great time editing! --Playjex 14:27, 4 January 2008 (EST)
- Well, there's nothing else to say, so Thankyou. I can only hope that my edits now are far better and less disruptive than before. --HMSVictory 04:31, 5 January 2008 (EST)
