==Ride Template==
I've created a [[Template: ride | ride template]] so that all the rides of RCT can be displayed in the same manner. It's just a table. The information needed is already on most of the ride pages, but placing it in tables will tidy it up, and also I've noticed a few ride pages are different. This will unify them.
 
And also, to use it, you should type '{{subst:templatename}}' in this case, Ride being the template name, and then save the page. The table will then be put on the page. Should I write a guide (unless there already is one) on using templates, because if the actual template is edited, it will affect all pages using the template. I won't start using the template until I hear from you, I don't mind if you scratch the idea, I'm just assessing our options. --[[User:Matt 20 1|Matt 20 1]] 07:04, 27 April 2009 (UTC)

Ezporsche is now a bureaucrat. -- [[User:RCT Fan|RCT Fan]]
 
I'll pop in every once in a while to contribute, but I'm too busy to be nearly as active as I was. I do like the changes you've made, and I wish you guys all the best in adding to the wiki. -- [[User:RCT Fan|RCT Fan]]
 
== Cleaning ==
 
I'm cleaning out some of the unnecessary pages. Would you think that it would be a good idea to delete the pages with the guest names that activate cheats? Those could easily be put on one page, they don't really warrant a full article. --[[User:Ezporsche|Ezporsche]] 01:21, 5 May 2009 (UTC)
 
== Skin colors ==
 
The blue is #479ED5 and the yellow is #FFE356, and just in case you might need it too, the dark brown is #2C2120. If you need anything else, let me know. [[User:JoePlay|JoePlay]] ([[User_talk:JoePlay|talk]]) 16:47, 10 May 2009 (UTC)
 
== I am new, what needs doing? ==
 
Hi I am new to this wiki but own all of the rollercoaster tycoons, what needs doing? Screenshots I can do etc. And where can I find an admin? --[[User:Lcawte|Lcawte]] 21:55, 18 May 2009 (UTC)
 
== Should We? ==
Should we have different awards, based on the stuff you do around the Wiki. And I think it fits in well with the RCT theme, seeing as you're awarded in the game. Some awards are held by everyone, like joining the wiki (creating an article), while others are a little harder to get, like the 'rides award' for creating 20 ride articles or something. And there can be awards fo admins, etc. I just think it is an interesting way to get uses motivated. The awards are displayed on a user page. What are your thoughts? --[[User:Matt 20 1|Matt 20 1]] 08:58, 19 May 2009 (UTC)
 
===Great===
Yeah, that is true, maybe we can set guidelines or conditions that have to be met. To discus awards, and how to get them, etc. check out Awards Discussion. Once we get it up and running, we can delete the page, but it will get everyone's ideas out in the open.--[[User:Matt 20 1|Matt 20 1]] 06:35, 20 May 2009 (UTC)
 
==Discussion==
 
I've found it difficult to keep up with the many issues brought up in the discussion pages of the 100+ pages we have here, so I think it would be a good idea if we had one main page where we could discuss anything, from individual pages, to general editing. The forum function really hasn't worked, so I think we should just create a page for general discussion.
 
If this sounds good, then let me know. I'm also asking [[User:Matt 20 1|Matt 20 1]] about this.

:Oh, I didn't know that the Community Portal already served that purpose. We should start using it more often now. --[[User:Ezporsche|Ezporsche]] 17:15, 7 August 2009 (UTC)
 
::We don't use the community portal for anything else, so it won't make a difference. --[[User:Ezporsche|Ezporsche]] 17:49, 7 August 2009 (UTC)
 
== Rollback rights ==
 
Thanks for the new privileges. If I notice anything, I suppose I'll correct it, but usually those things are fixed before I stumble onto them. [[User:Rps eagleforChrist|Rps eagleforChrist]] 02:35, September 18, 2009 (UTC)
 
==Re: Admin user page==
 
Thanks for the tip! --[[User:Ezporsche|Ezporsche]] 02:39, September 18, 2009 (UTC)
 
== Thanks! ==
 
Wow, thanks for the rollback rights! I appreciate it. I've never really been good at thanking people, but I wanted you to know of my appreciation. [[User:Chozo01|Chozo01]] 18:25, October 4, 2009 (UTC)
 
==Scenario and Ride Exchange==
Hey, I thought I'd let you know that the Wikia staff approved my request for unblocking the uploading of scenario and ride files, so now we've got our own file exchange! Take a look if you're not busy with work/finals/etc. --[[User:Ezporsche|Ezporsche]] 06:08, January 28, 2010 (UTC)
 
== Adminship ==
 
Hello! May I become an administrator of this wiki please? I'd like to be able to customize the MonoBook skin([http://rollercoaster.wikia.com/index.php?title=Roller_Coaster_Wiki&useskin=monobook Here is how I customized the monobook skin skin on Coasterpedia]), create more redirects easily, fix some templates, and more. Please let me know, thanks!

== Wiki Activity ==
 
Hey there! There's a few people who are semi-actuve, like [[User:Dolphanatic|Dolphanatic]], [[User:Chozo01|Chozo01]] and [[User:LostInRiverview]]. I am semi-active as well, mainly reverting the spam from random users. This place could do with a full tiime admin. I would do it but I am usually on Roller Coaster Wiki, not here so I dont have the time. I could use admin likes, if your happy to give them to me though![[File:Oblivion Logo.png|20px]][[User:Lachlan5963|'''<span style="color:darkgrey;">Lachlan5963</span>''']][[File:Oblivion Logo.png|20px]] 15:26, April 30, 2012 (UTC)
 
:I still check in regularly, but don't feel like adding any more information at the moment. I keep an eye on the scenario guides and any other page I edited and try to keep them free from false information (which gets edited in from time to time). Some of my edits are done anonymous since logging in is always a hassle. So you are not all alone! [[User:Sucinum|Sucinum]] 19:28, May 11, 2012 (UTC)
 
:Oops I thought you had left! The wiki is far from dead. I have admin on two inactive wikis, Water Ride Wiki and RollerCoasterCustom Wiki (being moved to Coaster Custom Wiki). I am Rollbacker on Roller Coaster Wiki. If you were to give me the rights, they would mainly be used for deleting the spam pages that come up from time-to-time - nothing drastic :P. There are lots of one-time editors, this wiki is just lacking a full time admin :([[File:Oblivion Logo.png|20px]][[User:Lachlan5963|'''<span style="color:darkgrey;">Lachlan5963</span>''']][[File:Oblivion Logo.png|20px]] 15:31, May 13, 2012 (UTC)
 
== Hello ==
 
Hello, I understand you've been on this wiki for a while, and I'm new here, so I was just going to ask what (if anything) this wiki needs help here. I got experience from other wikis and I always like to ask before doing in some cases, so again, what does this wiki need help with?
