I moved your page
I moved your page to User:Ziggy741/Click here! because pages that you want to create for testing purposes should be in your userspace (a subpage of your userpage). Here's some information about userspace. Also, you might want to check out S:SANDBOX. No worries though, because everyone makes mistakes! :)

- Did you sign your post with scratchsig tags? WikiMonitor only considers it a signed if you sign with four tildes. This way, it also shows the date and time the post was made.

Lol
I thought "Stratus" was a misspelling. Totally forgot that stratus was a type of cloud.

Quick Question
What browser do you use? It seems very pixelated, based on the screenshots I've seen.
Pianogirl84 ♬ Talk ♬ Contributions 00:15, 23 September 2016 (UTC)

Sandbox Question

Protip
{{DISPLAYTITLE}} didn't let you use a <div> tag because it's a block tag (i.e. it changes the spacing, in the case of div by putting the content on a new line). However, if you use <span> instead (an inline tag that doesn't affect spacing), it will work. See below for the code for what you were trying to accomplish:
{{DISPLAYTITLE:User:<span style="color: green">Ziggy741</span>/Sandbox}}

Color and Colour
Just to clarify, the Scratch Wiki isn't specifically written in American English, so it is acceptable to use European spellings in articles. However, it is important that the spellings be consistent within an article. jvvg (talk | contribs) 23:22, 4 December 2016 (UTC)

Please stop minimodding me
Can you please stop posting undo comments and everything along the lines on my talk page? It is acting like minimodding, which means "Telling someone to stop doing something that breaks the rules." Thanks!

- I wanted to let you know why I reverted an edit you did. Ziggy741 (talk | contribs) 02:34, 7 December 2016 (UTC)
- Everyone is responsible for watching over the edits of others on the Wiki, meaning that any user is in essence a moderator. The Wiki isn't like the forums in that way, so it is important to notify users whenever they are affected. Talk page messages aren't meant to be punitive, embarrassing (it's way harder to spell that word than it should be), etc. They're just telling us how to improve. However, in the case of simple reverts that don't reflect a persistent problem, generally just explaining why in the edit summary or on the article's/file's talk page is sufficient. jvvg (talk | contribs) 02:41, 7 December 2016 (UTC)
- So for the edits I reverted would I need to tell the user on their talk page and would you need to tell someone if you reverted a file that they uploaded a new version of? Ziggy741 (talk | contribs) 02:43, 7 December 2016 (UTC)
- I'm not 100% sure of what you were saying due to awkward syntax, but from what I am gathering, the answer to your question is that you don't generally need to tell a user if you reverted their edit unless they're a new user or you had to revert a bunch of things for the same reason and need to tell the user not to make those edits anymore. The same rule applies to reverting file uploads. jvvg (talk | contribs) 03:16, 7 December 2016 (UTC)
- Okay thank you and would you need to tell someone if they joined at December 1st? Ziggy741 (talk | contribs) 16:56, 7 December 2016 (UTC)
- If the user doesn't seem to be familar with the Wiki yet, then you should notify them. I would say joining December 1st would count. However, if you revert multiple things for the same reason, you don't need to leave a message for every single one. jvvg (talk | contribs) 21:16, 7 December 2016 (UTC)

- If it's something small and only specific to that page or file for a user who is reasonably experienced, then all you need to do is give a quick explanation in the edit summary. If it is something significant or requires discussion but is specific to one page/file, then it is best to use the appropriate talk page. You only need to notify the user if there is behavior that needs to be addressed (in the case of new users pretty much all reverts fit this category, as their "behavior" is about still learning the Wiki structure) or you otherwise think it is important that the user know about your revert. jvvg (talk | contribs) 02:42, 8 December 2016 (UTC)

Oops. o.O
You commented on my talk page, but there was an edit conflict, and something happened to what you wrote. (Probably my fault) You can add it back if you want (and you may change the indentation of my reply), but you don't have to. I just wanted to give you a heads up so you didn't think I intentionally deleted your reply. Sorry!

- Anything marked as with the category "Users' Images" or "Users' Logos" is already protected under userspace. In order to remain fair, I am not going to protect it as I don't want to start a precedent of protecting images for everybody. I also added a section to the userspace page explaining how it applies to images. jvvg (talk | contribs) 19:42, 7 January 2017 (UTC)

New Emoji Templates
Hi! You said on the Community Portal that you wanted to see the map, compass, binoculars, suitcase, and camera emojis added to the wiki. I'd be willing to help. Do you know anything about templates, or are you willing to help track down the images or anything like that? I can write the code if you want.

"No offense"
That phrase has always bothered me. People seem to use it as kind of "get-out-of-jail-free card" for what they say, as if it that means it's ok to say things that offend other people. The Scratch Community Guidelines tell us to be respectful, and that means that we should write in a way that doesn't offend other people, and saying "no offense" doesn't actually change how offensive or not your message is.
Sorry I made that so long, that phrase just really bothers me. jvvg (talk | contribs) 15:23, 12 January 2017 (UTC)

Purpose for Reveting Brush Size Image?
Just curious, what was your intended purpose in reverting the brush size image https://wiki.scratch.mit.edu/wiki/File:BrushSize.png ? The one you reverted to it just has more blank space and the file size is nearly 3X as large.

In "How to make a collaboration" the words "DON"T GIVE UP" should be capitalized.

When You Revert Images
If someone uploads a new version of an image, do not just go and revert it because you like the previous one better. That person spent some time getting that new image because he/she thought it was better. If you do not like the image, you should start a discussion on the image's talk page so other people can provide their own input. But don't just revert it like that without saying anything, and also when you do revert something, make sure to explain why so we can see why in the recent changes.

Scratch Wiki:What's the difference between includeonly and onlyinclude? - why I undid your edits
I used one equals sign (i.e. =Template:Example=) so that it would look like an actual page. The omission of a second equals (i.e. not ==Template:Example==) is deliberate. I believe it should stay that way so that editors can see the content like it actually is in real editing.

Why did you revert File:Backdrops Library.png?
As far as I can tell, there is no visible difference between the versions - the one I uploaded was simply about a quarter of the filesize. What was the difference you spotted? Why did you revert it? kenny2scratch Talk Contribs Directory 06:20, 12 March 2018 (UTC)
- If you look closely, the hearts1 backdrop have a small color difference in the two versions. Ziggy741 (talk | contribs) 23:50, 12 March 2018 (UTC)
- ...that's a small enough change that it's okay to keep it compressed - considering the original filesize, the size reduction is worth the color change. I'll revert it back but if you can compress it anywhere near as much while keeping the color then feel free to upload a new version. kenny2scratch Talk Contribs Directory 04:09, 13 March 2018 (UTC)
