Welcome
Hi, welcome to How to Train your Dragon Wiki! Thanks for your edit to the Fishlegs page.

Please leave a message on my talk page if I can help with anything! -- Kacieh (Talk) 14:15, March 26, 2010

Re: Cool Userpage
Thanks! I just collected all the images of Toothless I could. If you want to see my huge userpage, go to the Avatar Wiki posted in my page here. And I will report spam and vandalism to you, and give Iloveastrid a break! =] Dragin  fli  17:00, April 16, 2010 (UTC)
 * By the way, do you happen to know how many game consoles the game from the movie was released to? Dragin  fli  17:01, April 16, 2010 (UTC)


 * Oh, I said that wrong. I meant I'm going to stop bothering him with reporting all the vandalism, and report to you, too. I hope I said that clear O_o Dragin  fli  17:15, April 16, 2010 (UTC)

Just a few questions...
I'm a little new to the whole wiki thing, so pardon me if I do anything out of the ordinary.

When editing articles about the different species of dragons, would it be preferable to refer to the dragon species in the singular (e.g. The Deadly Nadder is very vain) or in the plural (e.g. Deadly Nadders are very vain)?

And when editing parts written about the books or the movie, should they be kept in the present tense (as is customary for essays written about books, movies, or history)?

I'm sorry that looks so long. Thank you in advance, though!

The article Riders needs to be deleted because it has nothing to do with HTTYD. Juoju 21:23, April 28, 2010 (UTC)

Images or Descriptions?
Hey, are you familiar with the books? I was wondering because there are a lot of dragon articles with no pictures and little for a description. If you have the books, or know of someone who does, do you think you could get pictures? I was hoping for one of the Ramming Roller. Thanks for your work, Dragin  fli  17:22, April 30, 2010 (UTC)

RE: New featured article
I've been wondering about that for a while. Maybe Astrid? Or the How to Train Your Dragon film? Night Fury? Manga Maniac 06:50, May 20, 2010 (UTC)


 * We probably should talk it over with Dragonfree, since he's the founder an' all. Still, since Hiccup says 'Featured Character', why don't we have a 'Featured Dragon' as well? Maybe once we get more detailed dragons. Manga Maniac 14:31, May 20, 2010 (UTC)
 * Maybe we should continue this discussion here Manga Maniac 14:41, May 20, 2010 (UTC)

RE: Iloveastrid
I noticed the lack of activity from those two. I already realised how inactive Iloveastrid was, this was just a confirmation check that, with any luck, would make her notice the wiki again. You and I seem to be the only active admins now. Do you have any ideas to bring them back? I say we go powermad and destroy the wiki, but that's just me. Manga Maniac 09:41, June 29, 2010 (UTC)

Category:Dragon Manual
I've noticed that there are a lot of articles on dragons in this, and they are all really short. I've considered putting a Dragon Manual category, for organization. Manga Maniac 09:19, July 15, 2010 (UTC)

RE: User rights discussion and history from Sysops
You want us to overthrow Dragonfree? Viva la revolution, mon ami. I think Iloveastrid should probably be demoted from Admin status (though she should keep the rollback feature, if possible), but as for Dragonfree... that's a tougher one. It seems mean to remove his administrator since he foundered the place, but is that good enough reason not to do it? Can we even do it? Manga Maniac 15:00, July 16, 2010 (UTC)


 * I agree, we really should talk to Dragonfree first. After all, he won't be happy if he decides we randomly stole his wiki. Manga Maniac 15:13, July 16, 2010 (UTC)
 * I agree. While the guy's nice, he's really not active enough to have admin status. I'd remove it right now if I didn't worry about any complaints. Here's an idea: Perhaps... we send a warning to both Iloveastrid and Dragonfree to be more active, and if nothing improves with in a week, we remove their admin status. Manga Maniac
 * I have alerted them both. Manga Maniac 16:00, July 16, 2010 (UTC)
 * Obviously, if I decided to be more active on this wiki, my admin status would be restored? We don't do this on the Animal Crossing wiki, as it is, to be fair, a waste of time. Having the administrator status for an inactive user is in no way harmful to the running of the wiki; and personally, if I were active, and one of you two became inactive, I wouldn't even think about removing your adminstrator status. I understand on the big wikis like Wikipedia, Bulbapedia, the MarioWiki etc this is done, but for the sole, as I believe, reason that they are independent wikis, and administrator status can slow down the system ever so slightly. On Wikia, as we are, the bandwidth is not a issue, with the only size limit in place being that uploaded files must be less than 10 megabytes. As I said on my talk page, this seems to me like a big waste of time. I, again, shall take the Animal Crossing Wiki as an example. On the admins page over there, one can see that there are several inactive admins. We did not remove their admin status. And, as a final point, I am a bureaucrat, and only bureaucrats are permitted to change user groups. That being true, if one is to remove the admin status from a bureaucrat, they can simply re-instate themselves; for a regular bureaucrat may not remove bureaucrat status. Only Wikia Staff are permitted to do this, and from my experience, they only do this when an bureaucrat has decided to join the dark side, and use their admin/bureaucrat status to spam and vandalise without being reprimanded for longer. I, as you well know, have not done this, so I end my third point and large essay on why you shouldn't demote me by saying: What's the point? :P -- Dragonfree, 20:02, July 16, 2010 (UTC)
 * About the treehouse thing: If you don't use your treehouse, its just blocking up the garden. Now, consider this... if admin status was just allowed to inactive admins, what would be encouraging them to be active? Nothing. So after a while, all the admins would become inactive. And then the wiki would be adminless. Manga Maniac 11:40, July 17, 2010 (UTC)
 * Obviously the amount of admins any given wiki can have is infinite, so it is in no way 'blocking up the garden'. If all the admins became inactive, one could simply make a request to adopt the wiki at Wikia Central. -- Dragonfree
 * It takes forever for someone to adopt a wiki. As I said earlier, I took over Skulduggery Pleasant Wiki, but it went about 2 year adminless before I did that. The adminless shows in its inactivity. Manga Maniac 15:36, July 17, 2010 (UTC)

Two Administrator Categories
I noticed we have TWO Administrator categories, Category:Administrators and Category:How to Train your Dragon administrators. I'm going to go ahead and delete the latter, unless there's any reasons why we should keep two. Manga Maniac 20:03, July 16, 2010 (UTC)

IMO, delete no. 2. -- Dragonfree

Site Renaming
You may not have noticed, but a few days ago I contacted Wikia Staff to change this site's official name from How to Train your Dragon Wiki to How to Train Your Dragon Wiki. As you can see, the site has now been renamed. Just thought I'd let you know in case you, I dunno, wondered why all the Project:* pages had been renamed. Manga Maniac 16:09, July 19, 2010 (UTC)

RE: Where are you?
Don't worry, I'm still here. I've been a bit busy of late, however, limiting me to a less active state, meaning I can't edit as often. I am, however, going to Austria for 10 days (exciting, isn't it?) which means I've also been preoccupied with a bit of packing. I'll be leaving for Austria tomorrow. Manga Maniac 21:06, July 29, 2010 (UTC)
 * Good luck? Aw, thanks a lot for jinxing me. Now I'll probably be struck by lightning or something. Manga Maniac 21:14, July 29, 2010 (UTC)

Iloveastrid
Since she's been really inactive, and we've already warned her about this, should we remove her admin status? Manga Maniac 11:59, August 14, 2010 (UTC)

vandalism on the wiki
Someone created a spam article, it is called the Walrus Dragon, can you please delete it. Also, someone has vandalised the nadder's infobox. Toothless99 09:24, September 12, 2010 (UTC)

more vandalism
Someone has created Hiccup is an idiot! Please delete it.

We're doomed
Now that they're finally going through with this new look stuff, what are we going to do with our layout? Should we change now, or hold off in Monaco for as long as possible? Manga Maniac 18:06, October 11, 2010 (UTC)
 * I was referring to changing our layout. Moving wikis to ShoutWiki would be a terrible idea for such a relatively low-key wiki as this. Manga Maniac 18:17, October 11, 2010 (UTC)
 * Finished the new wiki version, at least for now. What do you think? Y'know, I'm beginning to warm to this new design. Manga Maniac 19:53, October 11, 2010 (UTC)
 * For the record, neither did I. Manga Maniac 20:00, October 11, 2010 (UTC)

Fanon Wiki
Just thought you should know: User blog:Manga Maniac/Fanon Wiki.

Also, I don't think its wise to make it so unregged users can't post messages to your talk page. It isn't very fair to them, now is it? Manga Maniac 13:12, October 16, 2010 (UTC)

Separated by a Common Language
Made a blog on whether we should use British English or American English. Your opinion would be appreciated. Manga Maniac 00:24, November 8, 2010 (UTC)

The Books
Yo, Station. I have recently started putting book images in the infoboxes, making them more prominent than the movie images. I've done this because, well... the wiki is supposed to be about the books and the movie, whereas before it seems people have been completely ignoring the books, instead doing the films, but with a small amount of trivia on the books.

Anyway, do you think its a good idea to put the book images in the infobox. I think its a good idea. For an example, see Hiccup. Manga Maniac 01:48, November 14, 2010 (UTC)


 * Oh, and yeah, I may of slightly changed the layout. Shh, we can't let Wikia know. ;D Manga Maniac 01:49, November 14, 2010 (UTC)

RE: New featured article
I agree. Oh, and what's your opinion on this? Manga (talk &bull; contribs) 13:40, February 27, 2011 (UTC)

Domain move
Yeah, I know I haven't been very active recently, sorry 'bout that. Anyway, I think we should move to httyd.wikia.com with our current domain name as a redirect. howtotrainyourdragon is overly long when typing and a the httyd domain is a lot shorter and ties in with the Fanon wiki. Manga (talk &bull; contribs) 11:49, April 25, 2011 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the quick reply. I've gone ahead and requested it to Wikia. Manga (talk &bull; contribs) 11:53, April 25, 2011 (UTC)


 * Okay, we've hit a snag. I got this comment from the Wikia staff, specifically Angela:
 * The current URL is best for search purposes. People looking up info on this in Google are more likely to find the wiki using the current URL and Google is likely to rank the site more highly in its search engine rankings with those words in it. However, I can add httyd.wikia.com as a redirect.
 * However, I'm fairly sure if I press the matter further I can get her to rename the wiki. Shall I press further? Manga (talk &bull; contribs) 12:13, April 26, 2011 (UTC)
 * Nope, they won't let us change it. Bah. Manga (talk &bull; contribs) 12:13, April 27, 2011 (UTC)

MOS
Hi! I'm looking for the most recently active admin on this Wiki, and according to the user list, it seems to be you! I have a question: does this Wiki have a manual of style yet? It seems not to be so, and I think it would be helpful, since I was browsing through random pages, and a number of them seem to be mashed into one single paragraph or with a mind of their own. I was just interested in knowing. =)

Reporting vandal
You might want to block user Wheewheewheewhee, all of his edits have only been harmfull to the wiki. Rhonin Magus 12:55, November 16, 2011 (UTC)

Vandalism
I'd like to report the user Thisissostupid, who has been renaming, and re-editing the Rocket Ripper and Puff Nadder pages, filling them with nonsense. I undid the changes, but I still think he should be blocked.

Yes I've just added baby toothless piccy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Vandalism again
Evil creep and poop are two articles created with vandalism. Someone else then went and erased what was on them and put a message to delete the page.  D r e a m Focus  14:40, January 14, 2012 (UTC)

Vandal on Wiki
You may be familiar with a previously blocked "contributor" with a profile name of Wheewheewheewhee. Based from the information of his edits, the articles The Mountain is the Best and Fart Tribe are false names and this information, obviously, could be verified. The actual names are Mountain Nest and Outcast Tribe. I have already corrected the Vandalized information. Thank you.

Vandalism

Vandalism
As of 1 hour ago, an article was created called "The original animal story" with material that is irrelevant to How to Train Your Dragon. Also, another article called "Icy Aclira" may or may not have canon material, for the article is not sourced.

Hello And Thank you
Thank you for letting Me be here on this Dragon wikia that Is awesome

Two wikis
I was wondering if you'd like to, for want of a better phrase, split up this wiki. The books and movies have nothing the same except the characters. So why not leave this wiki as just a wiki for the books, and make another wiki for the movies and TV series? It'd be so much easier, and would tidy things up for this wiki. What do you think? I realise you'd have to debate about it with other administrators (Manga Maniac only, it seems). —MakeShift (talk) 06:39, February 23, 2012 (UTC)

I honestly disagree with MakeShift, but do agree that the categorization between the books and the movie could be made more distinct.

72.193.207.18 01:01, February 25, 2012 (UTC)


 * I should add, I'm in no way trying to take away from your hard work! I respect your work, but a wiki for the DreamWorks franchise would be easier. —MakeShift (talk) 08:39, February 25, 2012 (UTC)


 * Pehaps I can convince you. Do you have a favourite IRC channel we could chat in? —MakeShift (talk) 09:46, February 25, 2012 (UTC)

Vandalism
Can you please erase the page Dragon news because the content doesn't contain informational text.

72.193.216.241 04:12, March 11, 2012 (UTC)

More Vandalism
Can you please delete the pages Chris ellingson and Danny ellingson...they....they just don't make sense.

72.193.216.241 02:33, March 13, 2012 (UTC)

Page Needs To Be Deleted
There's a page I think you need to delete... Merciless. There is already a page concerning all the info featured, so you should delete the Merciless page, if you even get on anymore. Energyarrow 16:33, March 15, 2012 (UTC)Energyarrow

Mysterious Page
Wyvern Does this page have anything to do with HtTYD? If not, please delete it. Energyarrow 22:38, March 23, 2012 (UTC)Energyarrow

I've have deleted it. --Station7 08:41, April 10, 2012 (UTC)

Another Pointless Page
Duel on the Burning Bridge

This page is uneccessary and written horribly. I tried to fix it but can't understand a dang thing it means.

I've have deleted it. --Station7 08:42, April 10, 2012 (UTC)

Another seemingly not, yet pointless page
Someone has created the article, Berk, which already has an article (Isle of Berk). Please erase Berk.

72.193.216.241 05:09, April 10, 2012 (UTC)

OK, I've made a redirect from it :) --Station7 08:40, April 10, 2012 (UTC)

Time for a new poll
The name says it all. We've haven't had a new poll for almost exactly a year now. Surely they're not too hard to make?Energyarrow 23:08, April 13, 2012 (UTC)Energyarrow

More pointless pages!
A anonymous contributor has made a page called Jiontinto. All content is erased. Please, delete the page completely. Also feel free to block the user if he/she makes more of these edits. Thank you! ;)

72.193.216.241 03:30, April 23, 2012 (UTC)

Recreation
A Wiki Contributor has created a page called How to Train Your Dragon (series), but we already have a page on it. The article has less information so please delete this recreated article. Thank you!

72.193.216.241 04:08, May 2, 2012 (UTC)

New Featured Article
I hate to be a nag, but there's something I must point out. The featured article has been featured for a bit too long now. I know all the smitten guys on this wiki love to see her on the main page, but I suggest you put a new article on. Thx Energyarrow 20:58, May 10, 2012 (UTC)

Aesthetic
Energyarrow and I had a conversation over these past few days and part of it was me suggesting the the website wasn't aesthetically pleasing. By that I mean that everything component of design put into the wiki is not on correspondence with on another. Here is the message that I left:

Aesthetic?
This website also has one minor flaw: it's not aesthetically pleasing. For one thing, the main page's headings are maroon which do match the "Wikia" part on the top, but don't actually match the background. Also, the headings for the dragons template is green and rounded which, of course, don't match the maroon and rectangular headings on the main page. Another thing is that most of the template's heading colors are blue and rectangular; it does match the background, but its rectangularity doesn't match the dragons template and its color doesn't match the maroon. All in all, the colors and shapes are everywhere; there is absolutely no uniformitarianism!

My signature...

In continuation to that, I made a list of colors that is in correspondence with How to Train Your Dragon only and not necessarily with the background in particular. Here is a copy of that message:

Aesthetic - 2

With that said, the colors are written in hexadecimal code (the ones used to edit color in "source mode" on Wikia). I know that your not an admin who can actually change certain things, but just in case you can, here you go:

<p style="border-bottom-width:0px;border-left-width:0px;font-style:inherit;font-weight:inherit;margin-top:0.4em;margin-right:0px;margin-bottom:0.5em;margin-left:0px;padding-top:0px;padding-right:0px;padding-bottom:0px;padding-left:0px;vertical-align:baseline;">Note that spaces probably aren't required.

FA
I understand if you're busy. Go ahead and do it whenever you have a chance. Energyarrow 18:50, May 12, 2012 (UTC)

What I mean
What I mean is that the maroon-colored (rectangular) heading's (i.e. content: About This Wiki, Poll, Contribute to the How To Train Your Dragon Wiki, etc.) colors don't match at all with other components on this wiki. For example, the rounded, green headings on the dragons template.

Energyarrow and I both want the wiki to be better because of Berk's Grapevine, a HTTYD fansite that has all the information we do, but in a better form (I mean by it being aesthetic). They also have exclusive information on the series that we don't. They aren't working with a big company or anything; just two people and some minor helpers. We both agreed that we would try are best to make this wiki the best it can be.

72.193.216.241 01:11, May 13, 2012 (UTC)

Templates (+Vandal)
Yes, I think that the dragon template (if that's what your talking about) to become blue! I think it will match the wiki better.

Vandalism
Also, some wiki contributor has created a page called Nikon which doesn't have any purpose/meaning, but just to express a point and not distribute info. Please delete it, thank you!

72.193.216.241 23:07, May 13, 2012 (UTC)

A random gift
Hello! I'm Spottedstar, an admin on the Kung Fu Panda Wiki. I was playing around with Photoshop a bit the other day, and at the same time I was browsing around other DreamWorks wikis. Out of boredom that day, I played with a few HTTYD images and eventually created a wiki logo:



Feel free to use or not use this logo as you please - this was merely a sidetrack of me on Photoshop with nothing else to do. :P But the logo you have right now is suitable as well, so there's no reason to change it if you don't want to. Also, no thanks are necessary, just enjoy. :)

-- § ρøττεδςτατ ღ ( talk ) 15:40, May 19, 2012 (UTC)

Thank you. It looks great. I will think about it :) --Station7 20:18, May 19, 2012 (UTC)

Wiki Features
Hello, Startion7. I'd like to ask if you'd be interested in chancing the wiki's navigation to the new and updated Expanded Wiki Navigation. It looks much better, and provides and easier way to access the Wiki and it's many features. To enable it, simply click Special:WikiFeatures, scroll down, and click "Disabled" to enable it :)

Of course, this is just a request. You don't HAVE to, but I think it would be very beneficial. I've included an image below.

Thank you, but I like it the way it is. --Station7 08:36, May 26, 2012 (UTC)

Hookfang
I noticed the page on Hookfang condradicts itself. Half the time Hookfang is a boy, and the other half a girl. Is s/he female or male? If s/he's female in the movie, but not the book, you should point that out. I just don't know... Energyarrow 13:26, May 26, 2012 (UTC)

You can lable it as both of them. --Station7 14:38, May 26, 2012 (UTC)

Fire Varieties
I also noticed the page Fire Varieties is labeld as a stub... its alot longer than some pages that aren't stubs. I wanted to take that label off, but I don't know if I'm permited to remove things like that. If I am, please tell me so I can next time.

You have my permission. --Station7 14:38, May 26, 2012 (UTC)


 * In my experience, Stub templates are used to discern which articles are not finished or lack information. The "Fire Varities" page is not finished, and therefore, technically, is still a stub. It's good to have Stub templates on unfinished pages so that we may, at any time, go to Category:Article Stubs to see all the pages that still need to be finished. It's just a safeguard so we don't have random unfinished pages that we don't know about. It's good to stay organized, in my opinion. 15:43, May 26, 2012 (UTC)


 * It just depends on which page off course. Besides that, they can then being removed. Do you agree with that? If there are for example 100 stubs and 50 stubs are complete, we can remove them. Simple as it is. --Station7 15:44, May 26, 2012 (UTC)


 * Yes, if the stubs are no longer needed, because the page is complete, it would be safe to remove them. However, the Fire Varieties page is not complete, and should need some sort of indicator showing that it is, in fact, not complete.


 * You're right about that. I made a new template: Template:Pna-incomplete. If you want so, it can replace the stub template. --Station7 16:08, May 26, 2012 (UTC)


 * Okay. Not really any different than the stub template, but okay. Now, the Terrible Terror article needs a lot of formatting. If you could unlock it so that registered users may edit it, I'd appreciate it.


 * Okay, I unlocked it. --Station7 17:02, May 26, 2012 (UTC)

RE: Contributions
Sorry, I didn't intend to insult. Though if you got that message I probably worded it wrong.

72.193.216.241 13:54, May 27, 2012 (UTC)

Okay, thank you for messaging me back. It looked a bit weird that you messaged to someone else instead of the user herself. That's why I thought you may was insulting her. Then it's solved. --Station7 17:41, May 27, 2012 (UTC)

While I'm here, I need to ask you a question...should we include transcripts? I know it'll be hard to write a script for the actual movie because of the many lines and actions, but how about for different shorts like Gift of the Night Fury? I thought that, if we could, the article's name would have categorization such as "Transcript:Name" or something. It doesn't have to be a big article, just a short reference of what the characters said etc.

72.193.216.241 00:19, May 28, 2012 (UTC)


 * I've actually been working on transcripts of several movies for other wikis. If need be, I'd be glad to do one for How To Train Your Dragon, and all three short films! There is a unique style to doing it, and I feel I'd be good at it. Where I come from, transcripts are named, for example; How To Train Your Dragon (transcript). Of course, the transcript would include all lines of dialogue, as well as stage direction, etc. It would almost literally be a copy of the original script, but, of course, not nearly as large. And, when the TV series starts, we'd also need to do transcritpts for each episode, to which I'd also love to do.


 * Yes, that's a good idea to include transcripts. Who haven't seen the movie, can be then more interested in what happened. Also, when the TV series will appear, they deserve also transcripts. The only thing is; don't copy from other sites. That's the best :) --Station7 08:46, May 28, 2012 (UTC)

Don't mean to eavesdrop, but there's something I've wanted to ask for a while. Altough a transcript for the TV show would be nice, there's two seasons and that's alot of work! I was thinking each show would have its each article: with a plot lineout, a summary at the top... and a youtube video of the episode. I don't have cable so I can't record it. If you guys know how to, that would sure help. If not, maybe we can find a reliabe 'tuber' that records the episodes and we can just pos her/his videos. That way I, and other users who don't have cable, can see the episodes AND when the TV show's done we'll still have recordings of them to watch. Energyarrow 12:23, May 28, 2012 (UTC)


 * It's better if have for each episode a transcript. Not as a whole, but for each episode. And how more articles we have, how more people will look on this Wiki. Just as simple as that is :P --Station7 12:45, May 28, 2012 (UTC)


 * If it's not too much to ask, I'd like to be in charge of doing the transcripts. Each TV episode, Short Film, and Movie will receive it's own transcript. And no, it's NOT a lot of work. Please click here for an example of a TV show transcript, here for an example of a movie transcript, and here for an example of an almost-complete short film transcript. They're not hard to do, but I'd like to see them done a special way. We wouldn't be copying them from anywhere; all transcripts would be done as the user writing them watches the film they are writing a transcript for. No one is to do them "From Memory". Also, regarding putting the epsiodes on transcripts, isn't necessarily a good idea. First of all, the episodes won't be on YouTube, because Cartoon Network will have removed them for copyright, and second, if we upload them here, on the wiki, we could also be sued for copyright. So I'd advise against it.


 * I mean we shouldn't copy them from other sites. Just right them by ourself from what we see. And yes, you have my permission. And I mean that we shouldn't copy video's on this Wiki. If you want to links videos, you can also (ref). Very simple. --Station7 14:54, May 28, 2012 (UTC)


 * For links the video, we can also use a section named: External links. --Station7 14:58, May 28, 2012 (UTC)


 * Yes, we'll, writing them by ourselves is really the only way to properly do it, which is how I've always done it. And chances of finding the episodes online to externally link to is very slim.


 * Normal websites that have recorded episodes have ads and other weird stuff, so I'd actually prefer Youtube. However if we can't actually find a video should we just add pictures or should we have both. Are we going to include a video with the movie because that's very hard to find. Also, should the formatting be like you mentioned:


 * [setting/action (if available)]
 * ANY CHARACTER: [way said (optional)] Line. [action (optional)]
 * [another setting/action (if available)]
 * ANY CHARACTER: [way said (op.)] Line. [action (op.)]
 * ANY CHARACTER: (way said (op.)] Another line. [action(op.)]




 * END
 * END


 * I just added the actions and settings in random places because it depends on what your writing, but anyways, do you want it like this format?
 * -72.193.216.241 22:43, May 28, 2012 (UTC)


 * We won't include video's in the transcripts, but link videos in the section named external links. It's not yet a good idea to include pictures yet, because they are here everywhere on the site from the movie. I hope you understand, --Station7 05:14, May 29, 2012 (UTC)


 * And yes, that's how it should be. :) --Station7 05:15, May 29, 2012 (UTC)
 * Dreamworks wouldn't sue a small website like this, but maybe (just in case of pressure) a script would be better. I still want to watch the episodes though... :-( Energyarrow 14:39, May 29, 2012 (UTC)


 * No, we won't copy the videos on the pages. Absolutely a no. We use external links and nothing more then that. And we use a script as page with the episodes as external links. --Station7 14:41, May 29, 2012 (UTC)


 * I prefer the idea of external links instead of videos on the spot. --72.193.216.241 15:52, May 29, 2012 (UTC)
 * P.S. - We could use the episode infoboxes for the episodes. We haven't used those yet!


 * Yes, but we should use another infobox for episodes. This one is old and we could use a new one, which I have made a time ago. --Station7 16:34, May 29, 2012 (UTC)

DreamWorks Interwiki Nav Footer
Hello again! Hope all is well here. :) I have recently constructed an interwiki navigational footer for wikis with a DreamWorks Animation subject (located here on Wikia Community Central). This wiki has been included in the template, and I was wondering if (1) it's all right with you that this wiki has been linked in the template; and (2) if it could be added to this wiki's Main Page?

To the best of your convenience, please reply back as soon as possible (by way of a new message on my talk page so I receive a notification). After that, if you choose to use the template on this wiki, you may do so by adding the following code:

If you have any questions about this, please don't hesitate to ask them. Thanks much! :) -- § ρøττεδςτατ ღ ( talk ) 06:31, May 30, 2012 (UTC)

 * You're welcome. It's looks great on the main page :) I'm happy for you. --Station7 19:08, May 30, 2012 (UTC)

Mystery Page
http://howtotrainyourdragon.wikia.com/wiki/Breathquencher Noticed this page wasn't on the dragon list. Either the dragon is fake, or it just isn't on their. I don't know how to change every dragon list, but I'm sure you know a way that won't take you four hours.

You mean that the dragon should be edit in the list. Sure I will do --Station7 13:49, May 31, 2012 (UTC)

Family Tree
Sorry, but this is confusing me. A page was created by a wiki contributor named Hiccup's family tree. It does have some strong facts, but should it be in the Hiccup article? It's either that or we delete it or keep it.

72.193.216.241 05:49, June 14, 2012 (UTC)

I have deleted it. It looks absolutely fan-made. --Station7 14:00, June 14, 2012 (UTC)

New page
Ok, so I created a new page called Heather. The reason I'm telling you this is because it may look fan-made, but it's not. Don't worry, I know you and when you feel suspicious about a page, you want sources. Don't worry it's well sourced from the official storyboard (scene writer) of the TV series. There's a link. PLEASE NOTE: When the actual series comes out...this page may be redirected to one with her last name (if available).

72.193.216.241 00:25, June 17, 2012 (UTC)

No, it's good enough to stay. It has a source. That's great. --Station7 08:36, June 17, 2012 (UTC)

Storyboards
I've been looking for storyboards, drawings of a television episode/movie in sequence, for the How to Train Your Dragon television series. That's how I found out about Heather. But what do you think of this? Click on the pictures for a bigger view.

http://adiasteegarden.blogspot.fr/p/how-to-train-your-dragon-dreamworks.html

This is from one of the storyboards artist for DreamWorks Dragons TV series and includes new info. Such as an old man named Mulch, Alvin (the Treacherous?), and Stoick's dragon.

Now that you've seen it, I think of making a page for the old man, Mulch, but not much is known about him. Also, there isn't enough information to put information in the Alvin the Treacherous page saying that he appeared in the television series because we don't even know if it's him. My question is: what do we think of this?

72.193.216.241 07:08, June 18, 2012 (UTC)

Vandalism
Some random wiki "contributor" created a page called Hades. It doesn't really make any sense and is already pending deletion. So, could you please delete it?

72.193.216.241 04:48, June 26, 2012 (UTC)

Spamming User
I don't know if you've heard of him, but this guy, 70.44.104.37, has been completely spamming many pages. I think I've undid all of them, but I put Crocoraptor up for deletion because he made it.

72.193.216.241 21:12, July 3, 2012 (UTC)

Heading
Ok, so I tried to change the heading (I've already done it before and if worked out well), but now I changed it to have more of a "fire/heat" sorta look. I can change it back any time :). What's your opinion?

72.193.216.241 05:32, July 12, 2012 (UTC)

New pages
OK, so you've probably heard of the International comic-con, right? Well a lot of information about the new tv series of HTTYD was announced through a panel. I created 3 new pages of information. I just thought you should know.

72.193.216.241 09:16, July 13, 2012 (UTC)

That's great. If it's confirmed by a source (Comic-Con) then it's notable for a page. Great job. My apoligize for not reacting yesterday, I was on a different computer and ddin't worked very well. --Station7 (talk) 09:46, July 13, 2012 (UTC)

New article?
There was a page created called Slavery in the Barbaric Archepelago. Should it be deleted?

72.193.216.241 04:54, July 25, 2012 (UTC)

P.S. I know I should be messaging you on bigger things, but could you decrease the size of the picture in the Boneknapper article?

It's fixed for now :) --Station7 (talk) 05:00, July 25, 2012 (UTC)

More Stuff to Bother You With
http://howtotrainyourdragon.wikia.com/wiki/Humungously_Hotshot_the_Hero This page is incredibly unclear and needs work. I haven't read the book, so I myself don't think I should edit it. Please do so, or get someone else to because if this guy is a main character, he deserves at least a proper article.

Even MORE (but serious) Stuff to Bother You With
Hey, I was looking - out of curiosity - at Iloveastrid's talk page, and I noticed Manga left a message saying that you and him had agreed that if an adminstrator was inactive for a week, his status was removed. I assume there was some objection, but Manga and Iloveastrid are practically gone, yet they're adminstrators? You know that me, 72, you, and Zaralith are the only people that show up regularly or make any valuable edits (you guys more so than me). Why do we have three adminstrators with only about ten active members? Energyarrow (talk) 22:37, July 26, 2012 (UTC)


 * Just a side note, but if they were to be "recalled", would they come back? This wiki's going to have information on a TV Series. That means this wiki will gain over a thousand pages filled with information on each episode, along with production info., etc. TV Series wikis have about 5 admins (the most famous ones anyway). Not to mention we have 2 more movies and books.
 * 72.193.216.241 22:44, July 26, 2012 (UTC)


 * P.S. Someone created a page called Bearcub's Grandmother, should it stay? If so it definitely needs to be sourced.

I haven't read the book, I wouldn't know. Station7, where are you?Energyarrow (talk) 19:13, August 1, 2012 (UTC)

Bearcubs Grandmother is a character in How to Ride a Dragon's Storm. I have no idea how we could sorce her, but I have read the book and that is her propper name. Toothless the Nightfury (talk) 19:34, August 1, 2012 (UTC)

..

I'm still here, but I think it's time to archive my talk page. But good, according to Toothless it's a character in the books, so it can stay. --Station7 (talk) 21:39, August 1, 2012 (UTC)

Promotional Vandal
O.K., there's this guy, Dtregle, who created a blog called Dragons Riders of Berk Wiki that I think should be deleted. He knew about our site, and after all of our hard work (creating articles about the characters and tv show, etc.), still created a wiki, and tried to promote in on ours.

72.193.216.241 22:12, July 27, 2012 (UTC)

P.S. I think that the user Ddopleganger is vandalizing. Do you agree?

Hey um this wikia right here is for the movie the other one he made is for the show so get a life and shut up

Just to make it clear, it's never said this is only for the movie. Everything related to How to Train Your Dragon comes on this Wiki. Thank you. --Station7 (talk) 08:30, July 30, 2012 (UTC)

Yikes! Feisty aren't we? I suggest that the sites homepage be edditted to inclue information claiming this is a wiki about the movie, books, tv series, and anything else about httyd. I think someone else suggested mentioning the tv series in the heading thing. Seems to be a good idea (especially since the series will add tons of new info to our wiki). I can't wait for it to come out. We'll just have to work hard to make this site the absolute best sorce on ALL things How to Train your DRAGON.Toothless the Nightfury (talk) 13:48, July 30, 2012 (UTC)

Redundant Page
Can you please delete a page called The Deadly Nadder. We already have a page on it.

72.193.216.241 20:47, July 29, 2012 (UTC)

It's done ;) I made a redirect. --Station7 (talk) 08:29, July 30, 2012 (UTC)

Cancelled infobox
I can't believe that I'd just noticed this, but a user named FlyingMud cancelled the entire infobox on the Hiccup Horrendous Haddock III article. I don't know why, though. Sorry, I'm telling you this, but I can't fix it, yet.

72.193.216.241 09:17, August 2, 2012 (UTC)

I've blocked him. --Station7 (talk) 17:02, August 2, 2012 (UTC)

Dragons: Riders of Berk
I have changed the the name of the tv series page to DreamWorks Dragons: Riders of Berk. I hope this will not be too problematic, but DreamWorks Dragons: the series is not relly the right name anymore! Feel free to undo my edit if you think there is a better way to go about it.Toothless the Nightfury (talk) 17:01, August 2, 2012 (UTC)

It's good enough for me, at least when you have a source ;) --Station7 (talk) 17:02, August 2, 2012 (UTC)

IMPORTANT: Addition to Main Page
In case you haven't heard, an hour long footage will be available of the TV series. I may have a way to get the video. If I can't get it myself, I'll ask (and give instructions to) any of the active users/you on how to get it (if you/they want to). I'd like it to be on the Main Page for everyone to see (if that's okay). If it's okay, than you're the only one who can do it.

72.193.216.241 05:36, August 7, 2012 (UTC)

It's a good idea to gave a link to me, so that I hope I can pass it easily on the Main Page. Will you gave me a link today? ;) --Station7 (talk) 05:55, August 7, 2012 (UTC)


 * Maybe. I'll tell you when I get a response (I asked someone). Thanks!


 * 72.193.216.241 10:39, August 7, 2012 (UTC)


 * While I'm waiting for a link, I just wanted to say that someone created a page called The flarebreath that seems absolutely fan-made.72.193.216.241 04:31, August 8, 2012 (UTC)

You can copy and paste this on the front page:

However, I don't know whether it will work or not. 72.193.216.241 00:46, August 9, 2012 (UTC)

Just some things..
Hi, Station7! :) I noticed that you're one of the active admins I can approach on the wiki, so here I am.. :D Well, I run a bunch of other wikis, too, and well, I have just recently become quite a fan of the series, and I would love to help, now here's the thing.



I was thinking.. maybe we could change the Wikia icon? I was thinking either of these could be good? I don't know, you still get to decide. :D (These are in the required size, by the way, which is 16x16 and why they are small. All we need to do now is convert one to .ico format and it can be used as the icon. I already have the ico ones ready, if you're wondering. Hehe)

Next, well.. you have several rights on this Wiki, right? If you decided to not upgrade at all for a reason, then disregard this next part.. Well, when you upgrade the Wiki Navigation part, you get an expanded one, with tabs and more under it. Well, see, the current one looks a bit cramped and confusing. Maybe you can put a "On The Wiki" tab and put the "Recent Wiki Activity" and the "Fanon Wiki" below that. I personally clicked on the Fanon Wiki tab by mistake, thinking it would redirect me to the home page, and I admit, I found myself slightly confused for a while. I think some other people are, too, judging by the comments there.. xD And then maybe add the tab "Media" and put the movie, book, and series under that, and the installments under that as well.

I would love to be an admin here, too, just so I could help out, even temporarily, only to help out with the things I can't control right now and remove me once I'm done or when you see fit, but if that seems a bit too much to ask too suddenly, it's alright. Lol :P :D

So, anyway, I won't mind if you don't take any of these seriously.. I'll just be around, helping with articles. :D

redwall64 05:38, August 12, 2012 (UTC)

I edited the third paragraph to add some things. :D redwall64 06:30, August 12, 2012 (UTC)

It's a bit harsh to understand when you're not fully explaining about "which icon" (number 1 etc.) which is. --Station7 (talk) 07:49, August 14, 2012 (UTC)

Oh, well, I was referring to the icon of the Wikia itself, the one that appears beside the webpage name on a tab. :D redwall64 12:05, August 15, 2012 (UTC)

New Account
Anyways, I created an account called Salience72. As you notice, 72 is still in the name because I wanted to keep the same title :). I don't know why I chose the name, but just remember that the "salience" is not addressed to me.

Unfortunately, I lost all of my edits.

72.193.216.241 06:07, August 14, 2012 (UTC)

I didn't log in so you knew it was me.

Compostition of Fire Page
As on the talk page, the Chemical composition of fire page is certainly the same thing as the Fire Varieties page so I think that it should be deleted.

Salience72 (talk) 08:49, August 17, 2012 (UTC)

Related Videos Module
Hi, my name is Nic and I'm a member of the Wikia Content Development Team. As you may have seen on many wikis such as Call of Duty, there is a new module for the right hand column that displays related videos to the Wiki. This is a new feature that we want to place on your wiki, would you be cool with allowing this? The module can be seen on any page, here is an example - Wagnike2 (talk) 19:33, August 20, 2012 (UTC)

Hello Nic. Yes, you're allowed to that. I'm sure a lot of How to Train Your Dragons fans would like it. But the thing is, how can we know if it's been watched? :) --Station7 (talk) 19:47, August 20, 2012 (UTC)

Additions to the Main Page cont...
The videos about the series (the one you thought we didn't have copyright for) wasn't taken down from youtube in a month. I think we're good (it has reached public domain)! So here it is again (yes, it's a little different). I think it should go on the top of the left column, though.

Also, the category DreakWorks Dragons: Riders of Berk episodes is misspelled (Dreakworks is actually DreamWorks). I don't how to fix that myself so I though you probably could.

Last, I think that the main page should have more up-to-date stuff (if you know what I mean) If you don't then just ask. Just remember that I think the videos don't need copyright because it's public (they haven't taken it down in a long time).

Salience72 (talk) 23:05, August 26, 2012 (UTC)

I think it's still not a smart idea to put on the Main Page, until there is a good template for. Its much better to have a template for it, then put it on the Main Page right away.

Yes, I know what you mean. If you want some changes, tell them and I will do my best, but this has to wait yet. If you tell what you want to change, then I will do it. --Station7 (talk) 08:24, August 27, 2012 (UTC)

Ok, I added cartoon networks blog link for the typhoomerang's new scorcher class.

Hi - I forgot to log in for 3 messages, could you assign these to me (I'm listed as 170.94.34.242) - Thanks!

Setting Up for Addition to the Main Page
I plan on requesting another addition to the main page. But this wiki isn't "advanced enough". So try this:

Steps for Adding
 * 1) Go to the Commons.js page on this wiki.
 * 2) Click "edit"
 * 3) Copy and paste this at the very bottom of the page

If you did this, please go to the next message.

Can you tell me what this does? --Station7 (talk) 08:17, September 2, 2012 (UTC)


 * Sure. This allows us to make Countdown clocks. I've only seen this on one wiki, and that's this one. It can also allow us to make countdowns to each episode if we want.
 * Salience72 (talk) 23:35, September 2, 2012 (UTC)


 * P.S. I kinda like this:
 * [[File:HTTYDWikiLogo-by-Spottedstar.png]]
 * I think you might of forgot about it?

I'm not sure if I put, because you only like it, so it stays for now not yet. By the way, you can make a countdowner and I will put it on the site. --Station7 (talk) 05:17, September 4, 2012 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the countdown:) Please, remember the "Common.js" page. This will help later on. So you're saying that if one person wants something, you won't do it. But if a lot of people like it, then you will? I can post a blog so people can vote on it. Okay?

Salience72 (talk) 03:07, September 5, 2012 (UTC)

Favicon
hey, why dont you all have a favicon?

Dragonlich The Strength of the Wolf is the Pack 19:34, September 3, 2012 (UTC)


 * Station7 can choose between [[File:HTTYD Wiki Icon.jpg]],[[File:HTTYD Wiki Icon 2.jpg]],[[File:HTTYD Wiki Icon 3.jpg]], or [[File:HTTYD Wiki Icon 4.jpg]]. I don't think he has chosen yet.
 * Salience72 (talk) 03:17, September 4, 2012 (UTC)
 * What's a favicon? Also we just don't put everything on the site, because you want it. First I have to agree with your plans and then I put on the site. I'm not going choose to because you want it. --Station7 (talk) 05:11, September 4, 2012 (UTC)


 * A favicon is a small picture that goes on the very top of your internet. See the address bar? the one that says http://howtotrainyourdragon.wikia.com/wiki/User_talkStation7? Well on the left of the bar there should be a small picture. Now, it is on a default pic. You can change that:


 * Go on Special:Themedesigner
 * AdminTabs.png
 * On the right, there is a section called "Favicon" you can upload the choices I listed above.

Remember, morethan one person (3 people) wanted this :) Salience72 (talk) 04:45, September 5, 2012 (UTC)

Who is the third person, may I ask? I will now have a look at that and put something. --Station7 (talk) 05:10, September 5, 2012 (UTC)

Re:How to Train Your Dragon Episodes on Main Page
Thank you so much! And you're not being hard at all. Also, yes, the youtube links I agreed would probably be a copyright issue (not now but maybe later on). I think the comments on the bottom will make the people want to search around this wiki even more :)

Salience72 (talk) 06:23, September 5, 2012 (UTC)

i dont believe i ever said i wanted a favicon here, i asked why you didnt have one. all i am saying is that the default favicon does not suit this wiki's color scheme very well.

Dragonlich The Strength of the Wolf is the Pack 19:04, September 9, 2012 (UTC)

i was referring to you telling me that i was demanding a favicon here when i wasnt. he was saying what favicons were made and that you may not have chosen yet. im only saying a custom favicon would be better than the default one(color and design-wise).....

Dragonlich The Strength of the Wolf is the Pack 20:10, September 9, 2012 (UTC)

Do you think that after a couple more episodes of the tv series we could set up a poll on which one is your favorite? It seemed to be a pretty contraversial thing, so I thought it would be cool to see what our comunity thinks. Just an idea.

Toothless the Nightfury (talk) 19:16, September 13, 2012 (UTC)

Unnecessary pages
There are 3 pages (created by an anonymous user) called Dragon foods, Getting your dragon, and Naming your dragon which are not needed. They seem very badly written and I think they should be deleted.

Also there's one called The baldassare live play that definitely should be deleted. Thanks :)!

Salience72 (talk) 00:10, September 14, 2012 (UTC)

Thank you Salience72. It's all deleted. --Station7 (talk) 06:01, September 14, 2012 (UTC)


 * Oh, and (I know this is a lot) there is another page called Burrowing Salamance that I didn't find any source on; it's fan made. I don't know if you remember the user Dtregle, but you banned him. He's back again and making the same vandals again! That's all I'm going to say, thanks :)
 * Salience72 (talk) 06:42, September 15, 2012 (UTC)

It said the pictures are acually drawn by the HTTYD artist and i got them from "Berk's grapevine". I just didn't put the sorce - sorry. Dont' know how. Oh, and if you want to delete "Samantha's Page" you can. I though it was going to be on my profile page but i ended up there. By the way I read you were 100% Dutch - UITSTEKEND. :)

DragonFang145


 * Sorry to interrupt, but what exactly did it say on Berk's Grapevine. I'm just a little...uncomfortable with that website (and other user(s) here). I swore not to go on it. Just wondering 'cause their information is canon and good (little too good) and it is knowledge so that's good too.

I'm sorry but when I went back to the site i couldn't find them. I Googled it but it just showed other peoples art. I just can't remember what column they were in on the site. You're probably just going to have to delete them. Sorry if i caused any trouble.

Fake Page and Chat
I noticed this page Boneknapper Minion looks fanmade and should be removed. Also, I thought it might be a good idea for you to make a chat room. Most of the bigger wikis have one, and I think it would be a good way to expand the community (which is already rapidly growing) and to sort out problems, that way we don't have to IM back and forth over several days.
