Revision as of 21:06, 27 January 2012
Put requests for edits to the Main Page here. Any other edits will be removed.
Requested Edits
- In the "Welcome to the Wiki!" box, you can see that the "Character", "Place" and "Script" links are capitalized. They shouldn't be, as they are a part of the sentence. I believe that should be changed.
- Could you maybe put my Scripting Book under the 'Building and Scripting' category?
- Give a new building tutorial to explain the abilities of what the users of Roblox can create. Users should be compatible to knowing the basic structures of advance built models and objects. - User:DAbest
- Rename
- Tutorials page to "Building and Scripting Help"
- "Frequently Asked Questions" section on main page to "Help Center"
- "General" box to "Basics" on main page
- Add Builder’s Club section to Navigation on main page. Use the hat badge icon. Wording, “Find out more about Builder’s Club!” link to http://www.roblox.com/Upgrades/BuildersClub.aspx
- Gimme a minute to upload that image. ---Mr Doom Bringer 15:40, 18 April 2008 (CDT)
- Remove FAQ section from Navigation on main page. This will be covered by the Help Center links and searching.
- Remove screenshots section. - TyphoonII 8/3/08
- There should be an article that has something to do with the title "Help! My Robux and tickets have gone!", instead of linking to the "How to get Robux/tix/badges" page, which doesn't really help resolve problems. I think either you should create a page, link to a relevant one, or just take the link out altogether
- I second Typhoon's request. - ANU1 8/7/8 at 15:25 PM EST
- Playing_ROBLOX_with_Firefox should be added to the main page Eyegotbanned 11:45, 5 December 2008 (UTC)
A Quick Question
If the Main Page is protected, shouldn't this be protected? --Blocco 21:04, 24 April 2010 (UTC)
- Good call.--Gordonrox24 | Talk 21:06, 24 April 2010 (UTC)
- I guess it really doesn't matter, as only approved accounts can edit anyway.--Gordonrox24 | Talk 21:07, 24 April 2010 (UTC)
- That's a good point too. --Blocco 21:08, 24 April 2010 (UTC)

PayMo
Request to put PayMo here. --Blocco|Userpage-Talkpage 02:22, 27 July 2010 (UTC)
- Working on it. Thanks for the reminder!--Gordonrox24 | Talk 03:00, 27 July 2010 (UTC)
The Version Glitch Strikes Once Again
Even when not cached, the page looks like one of it's former versions. The version that I happened to see was only two lines of text, partly legible.
- That is very very strange. The page has been reviewed, so the newest version is the one you should be seeing...--Gordonrox24 | Talk 21:50, 24 September 2010 (UTC)
- It's happening to me too.
- Gordon, can you edit the page? Try changing something small and seeing if that makes it show that revision... --SNCPlay42 22:23, 24 September 2010 (UTC)
- Yeah I'm probably going to be making an edit to the page today. Check back in later and see if you still have the issue.--Gordonrox24 | Talk 15:31, 26 September 2010 (UTC)
- Page has been edited and validated. Still seeing an issue?--Gordonrox24 | Talk 22:06, 26 September 2010 (UTC)
- Not anymore.

- I know it's about a year late, but it seems to have just started happening to me. I'm seeing the first ever version of the page. Legend26 (talk | contribs)
- Same.. :oTrappingnoobs (Writer) Have I done something bad? Good? Tell me on my talk page 12:31, 3 September 2011 (UTC)
- Same.. :o
Community Guidelines and Roblox HQ links not currently working
When they changed the Builderman pages, they got rid of the old linking methods.
This is a shame because the wiki really should link to those pages. What should we do? --SNCPlay42 15:23, 24 December 2010 (UTC)
- I fixed the links :)
- I forgot we could link directly to the pages on the external help site. Guess I'm still thinking with the Offsite Links rule.
- I'll find and fix the other links to them on the site.
- Should we also add links to GetSatisfation etc? --SNCPlay42 15:46, 24 December 2010 (UTC)
- Yea, I guess we can. It won't hurt anything :)
- You do know we can still link to the Builderman pages, right? Here is an example, that links to roblox.com: Community Guidelines
- Just use Builderman.aspx?id=[The ID here]. Also, the ID is the same as the one used in the zendesk links. --JulienDethurens 14:56, 17 January 2012 (EST)
Meh.
The Roblox wiki homepage is horrid. You may know this, but I am making a new one. Emess talk 17:01, 24 December 2010 (UTC)
Should we archive old pages and replace them with more effective ones?
I noticed in a guide to make a transparent shirt that it contained a spelling error, should it be corrected or replaced?
- Ugh, these big words again. Just fix the typo and stop naming your actions. »ArceusInator 08:39, 15 July 2011 (UTC)
Page errors
Has anyone looked at the main page on a widescreen computer? It's not looking neat. All of the links/sections are lined up one above the other, and there is a stack of image errors at the top of the page. ~ ⇒TomTomN00 @ 10:18, 17 September 2011 (UTC)
- I'm not seeing it. Try refreshing/clearing your cache.
- Looks like your'e seeing an old version. There appears to be a problem with images. I can no longer upload them, and it appears the wiki can no longer resize some of them, like Image:DOOM_confused.png.
- The only issue I see is with the images. I e-mailed Doom about that earlier this week. He had worked out a fix to this problem in August, but it seems to be back. He was going to get a dev to look into it, so I'm not sure if somebody has yet. I haven't seen him online in the past few days, however when he is I am sure he will be able to look into this further. You guys can't upload images either? That's odd.--Gordonrox24 | Talk 23:48, 17 September 2011 (UTC)
- Clearly the only solution is to upgrade to MediaWiki 1.17

PLEASE ADD STATISTICS PAGE
I like looking at the statistics and a link to that page here would be nice. :) Flurite - 21:29, 27 January 2012 (UTC)

Some Things to Change
The "Multiplayer" link has its first letter capitalized; it shouldn't. Same for the "Character", "Place" and "Script" links.
STOP CAPITALIZING THE FIRST LETTER OF LINKS IF THEY ARE IN A SENTENCE. Just because they're links doesn't mean they don't have to respect capitalization, seriously. >_>
Also, STOP USING THE ZENDESK LINKS! There is a way to do it that brings to a roblox.com page.

- Thanks, Sncplay42, for fixing these. I can't wait to be an editor. I'll finally be able to change such things myself. :/
- I don't even understand why we need editors. I mean, this is a closed wiki. It's not like any of us is going to vandalize the homepage or something..
- You'll understand when you're older. †MrNicNac - Wiki Editor †
- That's the #1 excuse to not explain something to someone because you can't or don't want to.
- I used to think that too. But to be honest, with age comes first-hand, natural experience. It's amazing how wrong I used to be on that subject. †MrNicNac - Wiki Editor †
