DYK for Torment: Tides of Numenera

On 25 March 2013, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Torment: Tides of Numenera, which you created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that Torment: Tides of Numenera became the first video game project to raise $1,000,000 in under seven hours on the crowd funding platform Kickstarter? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Torment: Tides of Numenera. You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, quick check) and it will be added to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page.

Igor Smirnov as "Santa Claus"

Not sure why you seem to be so against the labelling of Igor Smirnov as being nicknamed "Santa Claus", it is well documented across various sources normally considered reputable by Misplaced Pages. I see that you are from Moldova, do you have some kind of nationalist/anti-Transnistrian agenda here? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 107.6.112.154 (talk) 01:55, 18 April 2013 (UTC)

Aw, cut it out, the only one who bought into this prank was that poor EUobserver guy, but he removed it as soon as someone asked him not to copy sourceless stuff from Misplaced Pages. All the other "sources" are just copypasta from his article or from Misplaced Pages. Still, thanks goes to the original prankster for demonstrating the positive feedback loop effect in action.--illythr (talk) 18:13, 18 April 2013 (UTC)

I was wondering if you could help me

I noticed that you put up a lot of the pictures for the Torment:Numenera website. I was wondering if you could assist me a bit in understanding the process of putting up these images. I am very new to editing wikipedia, and I would appreciate bouncing some ideas off of you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Barrett Kinsella (talk • contribs) 15:44, 17 July 2013 (UTC)

Hey there!

Thanks for the prompt, thorough response. I tried to put up those selfcc-by-sa tags on the images that I used, and also edited our official webpage (www.monkinstitute.org) to provide notice of the release of these images under that particular license (bottom of page): http://www.monkinstitute.org/education/international/index2.php http://www.monkinstitute.org/competition/pastwinnersandjudges.php

Haven't edited the logos yet or Billy Dee's stuff, but I will keep you posted as that progresses.

As you said yourself, the process seems complicated and confusing, but your input has been very insightful and is much appreciated.

If you are from Moldova, your English is pretty good! Also, are you working on the Numenera project yourself, or do you know staff of the project, or are you just a fan? Just curious.

Thanks again for your help Barrett Kinsella (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 15:33, 19 July 2013 (UTC)
