Ok, a question about images. If i wish to add an image of a character to an infobox what am i allowed to do without infringing on copyright? I don't want to upload any before i know what the rules are! --Guybrush Threepwood 16:02, 28 November 2006 (UTC)

You need to assess whether the use of it is fair. See Wikipedia:Fair use. Make sure you add an image copyright tag. Angela talk 21:22, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Character quotes

What do you think about adding significant quotes about the characters in their articles, like it's done in the Wookieepedia (starwars.wikia.com)? I added, as an example, a quote about Sophia Hapgood - check it out.

If you like the idea I can add quotes for a lot of characters.

Great idea! I think any one who has a good, relevant, or important quote should include it. Captain Red Hook 01:01, 10 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Harrison Ford

His article is entitled "Roy Chiao", and I can't seem to change it.

Let me try Captain Red Hook 01:02, 10 April 2007 (UTC)

I've deleted it. The real article is at Harrison Ford. Angela talk 20:59, 15 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] New logo?

I've put together a new logo for this wiki. (The old logo gets the job done, I suppose, but it's always bugged me that the first two letters are obscured by the hat.) What do you guys think?

  • Ooh, I like it. -- Ozzel 22:16, 10 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Thanks! Any idea how to replace the current logo? -- Icybro 01:58, 11 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Vandalism

I removed some vandalism in the form of a name on the MC list. the name is question being "Wood ju rape me" or something to that effect.The preceding unsigned comment was added by 72.91.158.33 (talk • contribs).


[edit] Diary of Henry Jones (from IJ&LC:Graphic Adventure game) - level of canonicity?

I'm new here and just started contributing - i have the Grail Diary from the Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade Graphic Adventure and it has a lot of cool info, esp about Henry's life. However, it contains an element which is no longer canon - Mary being the name of Indy's mom. Can the rest of its contents be taken as canon (unless shown otherwise by the YIJC), and thus be source material for the wiki?

(The other potential contradiction is where the Jones' live - Indy is born in Princeton in 1899 and doesn't really go anywhere until travels with his parents in 1908-1910, but the diary has it seem Henry and Indy have moved to "Las Mesas, Colorado" for an entry dated 11/14/1905, and having taken the family to France and Austria-Hungary in 1906. and then another entry in Las Mesas in 2/22/1912 - although it does put the estrangement of Henry and Indy at 1916 (matching when Indy leaves his father and gets caught up with Pancho Villa and then WWI). in 1920, Henry gets a year leave before starting tenure at Princeton (though the text is unclear whether he was at Princeton before this time - earlier references show him to be at Four Corners University in 1912). i think it can all be melded together since there are no actual date discontinuities, but simply Indy didn't really have any adventures in Europe in 1906.. unlike his father's tour in 1908-1910

so the grail diary from the video game - valid? or no? Jawajames 05:43, 1 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] F

It is being filmed in my hometown Downey, California!(and I live right across the street from the studio). About a few months ago, I saw what I think were either fireworks or explosions (but they might also be for Cloverfield)

[edit] Main Page header

How do we go about removing that? Adamwankenobi 19:16, 23 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Aesthetics

If the Monaco skin gets the go ahead can we change the main page image on the right to one of these (or something similar like the image of Jones in front of the Raiders Paramountain)? I feel that they're more welcome-to-the-adventurery than a variation on the same font from Emperor's Tomb. Vetinari (Appointment) 13:49, 15 May 2008 (UTC)

I'd suggest this one if Indy didn't look like he's having zipper problems

[edit] Name of wiki

I found a suggestion for a name on The Raven forum (no, not this site). "Whipipedia". I like it. Alientraveller 19:45, 21 May 2008 (UTC)

Since this is the "discussion" section, I expect this is the right place.

This Wiki ROCKS!

...but what do you think of "WikipINDYa", or or something like that...?--Dr. Tyree 01:44, 2 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] IndyWiki and userboxes

  • Question: Does IndyWiki have userboxes yet, or are we still developing, and haven't gotten a chance to do them, yet? Or are we not yet worried about making them right now? Anyway, love the IndyWiki! It's turning out very nicely! =) And by the way, I have a candidate for the name of this Wiki. It's probably already be said by someone else, but anyway, I like the name "IndyWiki." How does that sound? --The Wolfe22 23:49, 31 May 2008 (UTC)
