User talk:Altaïr

Hi, welcome to Assassin's Creed Wiki! Thanks for your edit to the Maria page.

Please leave a message on my talk page if I can help with anything! -- Hells Angel (Talk) 02:26, 21 May 2009

Hey. You can't correct spelling in a file link, that breaks them. Check the Piece of Eden page and see if you can find what you did wrong. -- D. Cello 21:55, February 12, 2010 (UTC)
 * The POE page has been completely rewritten, so you wouldn't find it by now. But i is completelly different from ï. They are two different characters. If there's a link to a file called altairpicture.jpg and you change the link to altaïrpicture.jpg, he won't find the file, cause it isn't the right name. Got it? -- D. Cello 20:09, February 13, 2010 (UTC)

And sign your posts with 4 tildes. -- D. Cello 20:10, February 13, 2010 (UTC)

Don't worry, I'm not angry. And the edit summary indicated that change of name file under your name, that's why you was contacted. Just be careful with those file names, you have no idea how much categorization and file problems we had with small typos x.x -- D. Cello 15:22, February 14, 2010 (UTC)


 * Al, I'm giving you rollback rights. You can find more info here. Make good use of them. -- D. Cello 03:55, March 6, 2010 (UTC)

Thanks, I'll do my best to do so. -- Altaïr March 6, 2010 (UTC)

Adminship
Hi there,

Seeing as we have a shortage of active admins here, I was wondering if you would Endorse me and another user for admin/crat ship in order to get this wiki rolling again. Thanks, MacMed 02:36, 29 June 2009 (UTC)

Altair / Ezio
this is Ezio Aditore da Firenze how are things in the third crusade

Sucks... Maria is giving me a hard time cause she's on her period again!!!!

OT: Dragonball
So you like Gohan, eh? I'm more of a Goku fan, but I practically like any Saiyan and main villain. The reason I like Ezio better is because of his cape and added weapons. As a person, I like Ezio still because he doesn't seem to have as much arrogance as Altair did in the beginning of the first game. I'm actually playing the first game now, and I still have to assassinate Jubair Al-Hakim. 01:35, February 22, 2010 (UTC)

I was more of a Goku fan in the beginning, but when Gohan turned Super Saiyan two I was sold on him. And I started to really like him when he became a teenager, though not when he was acting goofy like in the Saiyaman saga. Well in case of Ezio and Altaïr, I really don't dig the cape, seriously! I almost hate it! I just think it ruins the outfit. As for personality. I agree, Altaïr was arrogant, but he learned great wisdom and hummility by becoming demoted. Ezio in all these years barely changes until he learns the truth. - Altaïr January 22, 2010 (UTC)

Paranoid, Hippy parents
It still sounds subjective, from Desmond's point of view. It is not mentioned in game, and strategy guides are not canonical. They are written by an outside source. AgentValentine 14:14, February 22, 2010 (UTC)

I asked D.Cello considered the strategy guide to be canon. He said yes when we were talking about Maria's profile in it. He said they were approved by Ubisoft and considered canon.Altaïr

I disagree, but if DC says so, fine. But it needs to be rephrased, because it is still objective. Try "tired of his parents traditionalist Assassin views." Just because a 16 year old kid thinks his parents are paranoid hippies doesn't mean they are. AgentValentine 14:22, February 22, 2010 (UTC)

Okay, I don't want to get into an arguement, so I'll change it into something that fits the profile, but still based on what the strategy guide states - Altaïr

That sounds better. :) If you don't mind, I'd like to fix the sentence structure a little bit. AgentValentine 14:46, February 22, 2010 (UTC)

Sure... Be my guest. Altaïr

Proposed attribution policy
Hello there, I recently took the time to create a Watercooler forum post detailing my proposed attribution policy, which I hope the wiki will be willing to adopt by this time next week. If you could be so kind as to look over the policy and cast your vote (or comment on any changes) you can do so by following this link; Forum:Sourcing articles. Also, would you kindly pass on this post too as many users as possible, so that the vote might represent the true number of contributors to the wiki. Thank you.

Couple of questions
Ok, so I beat the first Assassin's Creed and I was wondering if you can clear some stuff up for me:

1) How do I assassinate Robert de Sable at Arsuf in the same manner as it is shown in his picture on this article?

2) How do we know Altair became the Grand Master of the Assassins (if it is cleared up in Assassin's Creed II, try to explain without spoilers)?

3) Is there anything to do after the credits beside revisiting the Animus and looking at the symbols?

22:20, February 25, 2010 (UTC)

1) I'm not sure where the problem is. You mean you want to stab him? Doesn't that happen automatically when you win the fight?

2) Well it is revealed, but I'm not even sure if that was in bloodlines or ACII, but there can be no doubt about it.

3) No there's nothing else to do, I think you can enter another room, with a different computer, where you might read more concerning the pieces of eden and their location. Other than that there's nothing left to do I think Altaïr February 25, 2010 (UTC))


 * In the picture it shows Altair stabbing him in a much different fashion then when you stab other assassination targets in the back. Do you have any idea on how to do this? 02:07, February 26, 2010 (UTC)

Myeah I'm sorry but I don't think I can help you with that. Maybe it depends of where you stand or I think it's possible because he is only fighting with his hidden blade. I'm not sure if that is possible, though I am sure you can fight with the hidden blade in the second one. Cause if you fight only with your sword, then it automatically switches like to a video where he gets stabbed with the hidden blade anyway, so maybe that doesn't happen when you just use the hidden blade, though I can't remember if that is possible. From what I remember if you tried it, when an enemy saw you they would always block your arms and prevent you from stabbing him.Altaïr February 26, 2010 (UTC)) And sign your posts. -- D. Cello 02:14, February 26, 2010 (UTC)
 * Hi, I'm the author of that awesome kill. XD It was performed doing a counter-attack with the hidden blade. My friend took the screen. Pretty cool, huh?? ;D

Ok thank you D. Cello. My signature gets all f**ked up if I sign anywhere else besides the Dragon Ball wiki. 02:40, February 26, 2010 (UTC)

To help with
Hey Cedric since you'rre the main person to correct what I write in the Maria Thorpe page, do you think it's a good idea for me to leave it alone? PassiveNeoluna 00:35, March 8, 2010 (UTC)

I don't think so. I mean, if I say so myself, we make a good team. You're a very dedicated writer here on this Wikia and you're very good. I'm from time to time just correcting spelling mistakes, but my grammar isn't fantastic, which you are far better in. So that's something I would surely like to have you on board with for. -- Altaïr March 8, 2010 (UTC)

Okay then I'll keep doing whatever I'm doing. I try to be accurate with content, though I'm mainly a grammar editor. By the way, do you know which is the proper tense used for Wikia? Past or present? PassiveNeoluna 01:19, March 8, 2010 (UTC)

Past imo. I mean we're talking about historical figures or fictional figures from the past. However I'm not sure if we should do the same for the present, which is actually the future. (2012) When we write about Desmond and such, should we write in present? Let's leave it past for now I think. -- Altaïr March 8, 2010 (UTC)

Okay thanks for clarifying. PassiveNeoluna 01:32, March 8, 2010 (UTC)

2012 is the present. All rest is past. -- D. Cello 23:13, March 10, 2010 (UTC)

So an article like Desmond's, should it be written in present tense? Cause after all we are telling a story that already happened in the games. So it's like it already happened. It depends on the context I guess. If you're talking about the content of the games I would keep it in past tense, but to talk about his personality and such, then we could place it in present tense, just to make it clear that 2012 is the present, as you said. -- Altaïr March 11, 2010 (UTC)

Al, I've got an idea. Talk to Master Sima and ask if you can work together on a wiki policy about the proper tense for the wiki, similar to the sourcing policy Jasca proposed a few weeks ago. I remember he corrected a lot of those grammar things moths back, maybe he's up to help it. Say I gave you green light to do it, with no deadline. Just get to it if and when you can and make one, alright? -- D. Cello 00:47, March 11, 2010 (UTC)

Okay, thank you. I left him a message about it on his 'talk' page. -- Altaïr 2:14 March 11, 2010 (UTC)

It's odd when I talk, I happen to bring up an editing issue involving you, your fiance and D Cello *sigh*. I'll help with re-revising the pages if a proper policy takes place. PassiveNeoluna 06:05, March 11, 2010 (UTC)

Past or Present Tense
Ah, you're Belgian. Do you speak Dutch then? Or just French? 'Cause I'm Dutch and I guess it'd be a lot easier to speak Dutch when communicating then. :P

And yes, I totally agree with you. I have been trying to 'update' pages to past format, though it's quite some work if you have to do it alone (though lately I haven't been that active here because of other things). I'd love to help you with putting the pages in the past tense. If there is something else I can help you with, just ask. -- Master Sima Yi 07:52, March 11, 2010 (UTC)

I'm Belgian, from the Flemish side. So yes, I speak Dutch. But I think we should continue in English lol. Otherwise it wouldn't really be fair to other members lol. But thanks for you input. If I see any pages that are still written in present tense then I'll try to update it myself. -- Altaïr 13:25, March 11, 2010 (UTC)
