: Regarding first: agreed, I'll work on that. Regarding second: not sure many editors bother. You could, if you want make a new one with the short name, redirecting to the old one, if that's possible. But stay consistent in when naming. Third, ~~Horsti12~~ is working on a new front page, see [[Test]]. Parkitect should stay on the page even though there is no article yet, because of its similarity to the RCT franchise's games. Which forums do you mean? You could suggest that to ~~Horsti12~~.

I am new here, so I may be blind to a reason for it, but I believe the WikiTroll offender list should be deleted. It is important to never feed trolls—FANDOM has [[Help:Don't feed the trolls|a help article]] on that—and the list does just that.[[user:SLScool|SLScool]] ([[message wall:SLScool|message wall]]) 18:19, November 24, 2017 (UTC)

Regarding the troll page: We inherited the list from the sysops before ~~Horsti12~~'s adoption of the wiki. The page was created in the very first days of the wiki, so it may be obsolete. I personally find it quite useful for admins to have an editable overview over past blocked users. However, I read the article you linked. So far, I don't know about users that felt encouraged to troll after being featured on the list. Also, there are very few trolls at all on this wiki over time. Besides that, a notable, curious thing is that there is a special page on every wiki that is similar to [[WikiTroll|our WikiTroll page]]: [//rct.wikia.com/wiki/Special:Log/block http://rct.wikia.com/wiki/Special:Log/block]

:So, I think we can leave the troll page there for now. Deleting it will probably bring no benefit as there is the other automated site. What we could do is removing the link from the wiki's front page so it is less obvious such a list exist. Besides from that, the most effective measure against trolls should be a strict ban policy. The existance of a troll list seems rather not relevant to me. What do all you think? [[user:Bodoc_Calado|Bodoc Calado]]

:::I see ''~~Horsti12~~'' has started that. I would like to note, however, that it needs to be "body.page-Vanilla_Hills"—the system says the "body" part is unnecessary, but it is necessary for these backgrounds for whatever reason.[[user:SLScool|SLScool]] ([[message wall:SLScool|message wall]]) 01:38, November 26, 2017 (UTC)

::::Yes I tried to do it, but it not works. Can you please help me. I even completly copied the complete MediawikiCss but it also didn't work. So I changed it back to the one we had earlier. There has to be another page which controls it. --[[User:~~Horsti12~~|~~Horsti12~~]] ([[User talk:~~Horsti12~~|talk]]) 11:13, November 26, 2017 (UTC)

:::::[[Special:ThemeDesigner]] is the only one I can currently think of. Under "customize," make sure the background graphic is set to be tiled. In the meantime, I will try to figure out what else could be causing the fault.[[user:SLScool|SLScool]] ([[message wall:SLScool|message wall]]) 16:28, November 26, 2017 (UTC)

::::::Well, now it works. I suppose this post is all resolved now unless you have thoughts on the WikiTroll offender list.[[user:SLScool|SLScool]] ([[message wall:SLScool|message wall]]) 19:25, November 26, 2017 (UTC)

No need to apologise. Well, there is no active project at the moment, I suppose. But ~~Horsti12~~ and/or I, we plan to re-activate the [//rct.wikia.com/wiki/RollerCoaster_Tycoon:Projects http://rct.wikia.com/wiki/RollerCoaster_Tycoon:Projects] page and organise the most neccessary work sometime in the future. ~~Horsti12~~ also is about changing and standardising the rideboxes and redesigning the front page. Things I find to be done soon are completing the RCT3 rides list with the missing articles (but with filled out table and using the article structure of RCT2 articles) and incorporating RCT World content into the wiki. But, as ~~Horsti12~~ and I haven't assessed areas needing progress yet, you are absolutely welcome to find further topics which need work/improvement by yourself.
