:I'm also for at least the autopatrolled list, the edits are of good quality and you're consistent about correcting your own mistakes (which is AWESOME!). Plus, it would leave a lot less edits to patrol lol. As of right now, I'm up to edits from April 8th... {{:User:Embyr_75/sig}} 21:47, 19 April 2013 (UTC)

::I've granted rollback permissions.  This should allow patrolling of edits. -- [[User:Prod|Prod]] ([[User talk:Prod|talk]]) 18:18, 20 April 2013 (UTC)
== Patrolling ==
Congrats on your promotion!! I thought I'd leave a few tips here in case you aren't familiar with how rollback/patrolling works. :)
On the Recent Changes, edits that haven't been patrolled yet will have a red exclamation mark beside them. If you click the "diff" option on the left, it will show you the difference between that revision and the previous one and give you the option to "mark as patrolled."
What you're basically patrolling for is the factuality and quality of the edit. If the edit doesn't need to be revised, or if you'll be revising it yourself, then mark the edit as patrolled so other patrollers will know that the edit has been checked. If you aren't sure if an edit needs fixing or if the info is correct, either do a little research and come back to it or leave it for someone else to check.
Finally, the rollback option that appears on the right in the Recent Changes lets you revert all the edits made consecutively by a particular user to a previous revision by a different user. You don't get the option to edit the page though, like you do with the undo button, so use it carefully!
You can also change how the Recent Changes looks for you using the option to Hide or Show patrolled edits. These can be permanently toggled in your preferences.
Let me know if you have any questions!! :) {{:User:Embyr_75/sig}} 05:44, 21 April 2013 (UTC)
:Thank you! I am happy to accept this promotion. I always am glad to help out in the expansion of information on this wiki. I will be practicing these skills over the next few weeks. --{{:User:Wookiee123/sig}} 02:53, 22 April 2013 (UTC)

== Bonus Disc logbook ==
Just wanted to let ya know that I added the bonus disk in the logbook template, I take way too long to get around to those things... Anyways, when using the logbook template for it, add "mp2bonus" under the game part, where you would normally write just "mp2". {{:User:Malake256/sig}} 18:46, 4 June 2013 (UTC)
== Re: Merger request ==
Hey thanks for the offer, but I'm afraid we'll have to decline. Wikitroid is looking into new hosting, as FastLizard4 stated, but we still wish to be separate from NIWA. Nor do we want our content borrowed over to here, as we have worked hard to have it as it is. I understand how hard it is to create a wiki for a subject as massive as the Metroid universe, especially when other franchises are more popular; however, as your fellow editors have stated, it's nice to build a wiki from scratch and watch it grow. A little competition is nice as well. :) Again, I'm sorry to decline but I do not believe a merger of any kind is possible in the foreseeable future. I wish you luck in your wiki's future.

:No content will be copied over, and best of luck if you do move off wikia. {{:User:Metroidking/sig}} 18:38, 16 August 2013 (UTC)
==I'm not stalking you, ''but...''==
Hey Wookiee123! I noticed that you've posted yourself as [http://metroid.wikia.com/wiki/User:Wookiee123?diff=prev&oldid=181018 active on Wikitroid] again. Does that mean you won't be editing here anymore?? =(  Of course, where you edit is your own business. But we'd hate to lose you! I hope you'll still edit here from time to time, too. {{:User:Embyr_75/sig}} 17:02, 18 August 2013 (UTC)
:Oh, don't worry about it. I've decided to edit both wikis separately. I'll still be editing this wiki too. I'm going to start getting more active here too.--{{:User:Wookiee123/sig}} 19:56, 18 August 2013 (UTC)
::Hooray!! :D {{:User:Embyr_75/sig}} 23:33, 18 August 2013 (UTC)
