Invalid Pages

 * Looks like "broken GPS" got deleted by another admin. I couldn't find "broken radio" though. There is the radio page though which was a hoax pulled on the community early on. We leave it up because it is part of the unofficial DayZ storyline.

Btw, great work on the wiki since you've been here. You always have quality edits and add helpful info, it's been a pleasure having you around :) - Smokie (talk) 08:49, 22 November 2012 (UTC)


 * Yup, I removed them as it was incorrect. The radio hoax was around a fair bit and was general 'knowledge', but I havent see anything out in the community about a broken gps/radio? Planky (talk) 12:38, 22 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Ok, so there is this youtube clip: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2kOGa6OQ7uE; perhaps if it gains traction we can add them back in? Planky (talk) 12:41, 22 November 2012 (UTC)


 * @Planky, That was the only thing on the web I could find about either of those things. Of course, if the items show up in the database sometime in the future, we'll add it; otherwise we might as well not bother, I guess. Gotta be suspicious of them hoaxers haha.


 * @Smokie, Much appreciated sir :P And thanks for looking guys! (PlanetZ (talk) 13:02, 22 November 2012 (UTC))
 * That "broken radio" video is probably on a private hive server. We try to keep that stuff all on the custom map pages. ie. Lingor Island But in this case, it's probably one server operator trying to do something fun. - Smokie (talk) 05:36, 27 November 2012 (UTC)

PlanetZ, you've been a great addition to the wiki. I've made you an admin. You can now rollback spam pages rather than needing to undo all the edits. You also have access to delete pages such as the spam user talk pages. When banning, only ban at 3 month max as most spammers spoof their ip anyways. If you need/want to talk to me you can do so on steam -> userid: shock-smokie - Smokie (talk) 05:36, 27 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Also, there is a vehicle page: Vehicles
 * Thank you very much! It's an honor to be an admin on this great wiki :) (PlanetZ (talk) 14:15, 27 November 2012 (UTC))

Private Stats and Weapon Q's
I would like to add some Weapon stats for Private Server but I'm not able to edit the page... (Ireon (talk) 17:26, 27 December 2012 (CET))
 * Sorry about the minor delay for response... but as far as private weapon stats go, I'm not sure how to proceed with that. You might want to talk to Smokie about that. But if I can help out in any other way, I'd be glad to help with editing or anything like that :) (PlanetZ (talk) 14:53, 29 December 2012 (UTC))

Hey PlanetZ, how would I best go about creating new pages for the new weapons? Would I first create them in the Weapons List page, insert the data into the new pages, then update the Weapon Tables? I've uploaded all the images so far, and I have a fair decent amount of data sitting here obtained from a German Wiki. Cheers. --Skunkfu (talk) 14:59, 3 January 2013 (UTC)
 * I believe the first step with any new weapon should be to edit the Weapons List first; make sure you have all the necessary information to correspond with the table (magazine type, damage, range, e.t.c.) and make sure that it is accurate. Don't worry about making a minor editing mistake or not knowing how to insert something perfectly, that can be fixed up with the help of other editors.


 * With all that set aside, feel free to create the page. Try to copy the info box off of a similar weapon type, i.e. if it's an assault rifle you're adding, try mirroring the info box format off of the AK-74. And pictures are always appreciated!


 * Final tip: If you're thinking about adding overall information about the weapon, make sure you don't add too much 'real-life' references. Thank you for contributing to this! (PlanetZ (talk) 02:12, 4 January 2013 (UTC))


 * Okay dude that's me done. I've added as much information as I can and as accurate as possible, but such data as Rarity, etc. I'm not sure about so left as N/A. I've also left out overall information apart from what patch it will come from. No doubt the community will do the rest :) Later on I will make the time to order all the weapons alphabetically as well as the other pages if that's cool with you. Thanks for your help! --Skunkfu (talk) 12:59, 4 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Everything looks good. Nice work! Glad I could be of assistance. (PlanetZ (talk) 14:14, 4 January 2013 (UTC))

Loot page
FYI, the loot page is currently broken, have let smokie know - Planky (talk) 08:52, 4 February 2013 (UTC)


 * I'm on it. Thanks (PlanetZ (talk) 13:43, 4 February 2013 (UTC))


 * This happens from time to time, you just have to delete and then restore the page. Working as intended now! Thanks for heads up. - Smokie (talk) 19:04, 4 February 2013 (UTC)

Steam?
Hey, do you use steam or skype? I'd like to discuss a few things if possible. - Smokie (talk) 03:12, 6 February 2013 (UTC)


 * I have neither, but you can email me if you want. My email is wow_man12@yahoo.com
