Gaiapedia (Gaia Wiki)
Some time ago I requested 3 namespaces for our wiki. I have a feeling that it was passivly rejected because there was no concensus because the community on our wiki nearly never cummunicated with each other, especialy since 95% of the active users had been inactive for a month or two. I'm re-requesting the "Item", "NPC", and "Map" namespaces. As I finaly got communication to begin between members, and I've gathered from our small group of people that actualy work on the wiki 8 votes for the namespaces (The poll counts up to 7, but One member posted a yes using the alternative system before the poll went up), 1 Vote for only the "Item" namespace, and 2 votes against (One of the 3 no's calcualted is actualy the 1 for the single namespace).

The discussion is here(Interwiki linking seams to be broken here).

Could I also request subpages for the Template namespace, I've got a template or two for our forum system that uses the / to seperate into the subpages (Most notibly the Answer template) but for those browsing that template's subareas there is no link back because of how the templates are used. It may also have currently unknown possible uses in the future because our wiki is considering liking with another.

 * Oh, if you do make the Item namespace like the community wishes, would It be possible to get a temporary Bot Flag on our GaiaBotSys thats the Bot account I have as a sysop for possible use in certain types of repetative page deletion. I was denied request for a Bot flag on it because bot flags aren't given to sysops for certain reasons, but I was advised by that person to ask for a temporary bot flag for the days' that I need it, in the case I brought up, our Item Migration which will fill up the recent changes with redirect page deletion if we do not have a bot with sysop capabilitys. For Item migration accounting for the time before I get on the computer after the flag is given I beleve 2 or 3 days should suffice, that gives time for Migration from ___ to Item:___ and for Link Changes, and finaly the actual Page removal by Bot. dantman 07:49, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

follow up comments on en.guildwars.wikia stuff
The profession icons images (Assassin-icon.png etc) are actually original art work created by User:LordBiro of the GuildWiki, inspired by in-game icons (which doesn't look all that great when used on webpages). So it should be considered more as "fan art" and should be deleted from en.guildwars.wikia. For comparision:
 * w:c:guildwars:image:元素使.png - Screen shot image from the game
 * w:c:en.guildwars:image:Elementalist-icon.png - Original creation by LordBiro from GulidWiki that User:Santium uploaded to en.wikia

Similarily, is another original creation by LordBiro. I don't have the picture of the in-game image immediately available, but I can dig around for it if necessary. Thanks. -PanSola 08:07, 5 September 2006 (UTC)


 * Hi Angela. Ironically you haven't delete Elementalist-icon.png yet (link above). d-: -PanSola 00:34, 7 September 2006 (UTC)


 * Elementalist-icon.png doesn't seem to exist. Angela (talk)

StargateWars Wikia (reprise)
Hi Angela,

Just wondering:


 * 1) What exactly is a favicon? I see help guides referring to them as favourites icons, but have no clue what they are. :-)
 * 2) Is it possible to get a featured-article stars such as that seen on Wikipedia (or perhaps a custom star)?

Thanks.

Hunterd 09:51, 5 September 2006 (UTC)


 * Thanks. Finally tonight two more things:


 * 1) Is it possible to block a user's IP, despite the fact that they edit logged in?
 * 2) Is there a sandbox floating around somewhere, or should I send new users to the Wikipedia sandbox?

Oh, and I've just changed my signature for your convenience, but it's still me. David P. A. Hunter, esq. III talk 10:02, 5 September 2006 (UTC)

Re: Ads
You left a note on Shadowdancer's talk page regarding the ads on the RuneScape wiki. I'm afraid he left...Creative differences. (He wanted his word to be law. We wouldn't let him.) Just thought you might like to know, you won't get a reply. Vimescarrot 17:32, 5 September 2006 (UTC)

Campaigns
Hi Angela - I signed up at the very beginning, in July. I listed myself as a blogger, I linked to the Campaigns Wikia at least twice, I emailed Mr. Wales and just this evening, to my surprise, he emailed me back. A pleasant surprise I should say. Now, however, I haven't received listserv digests since the very first week I signed up and I'm listed as a blogger who doesn't link to the campaigns wikia but is just doing it for page rank (which, I confess, I'm not even sure I know exactly what that is).

So - a couple of things: I think this is a great idea and would like to get more involved. I'd like to correct the impression that I haven't linked to the Wikia and remove myself from the blacklist so to speak! And, I'd like to start receiving the listserv emailed digests again.

I see this says I'm not logged in, though I do have login settings. I suppose I should login whenever I come over?

Thanks for whatever advice you can provide.

Academia and Wikiversity
Hello, Angela. You suggested earlier that Wikiversity and the Academic Publishing Wiki largely overlap. With the launch of Wikiversity, I'm wondering if it might be a good idea to merge the projects. I continue to feel that wiki academic publishing could serve as a valuable resource, but it's a project that requires a large and active userbase. The Academia Wikia has a few devoted editors, but would almost certainly benefit from a move. Likewise, it would be an important addition to Wikiversity. I would appreciate any help you can offer in connecting the two projects. Sarge Baldy 21:31, 7 September 2006 (UTC)
 * I've "formally" made the suggestion here, if you're interested in weighing in. Sarge Baldy 19:20, 12 September 2006 (UTC)

About Interlanguage Link
I always appreciate your service very much. :-) Pages increased with wcl.wikia. Therefore, I hope that Interlanguage Link becomes active. I sent mail last week. But, I am afraid that it didn't reach to you, for some problems. I appreciate your service again. Watchtower Library 11:46, 8 September 2006 (UTC)


 * Interlanguage link became active. Thank you very much!!! --Watchtower Library 15:01, 24 September 2006 (UTC)

anomalias
in my wikia I want to rise for file, a file ogg, but the section: to raise file, I do not operate like it must be and the file instead of rising classified as what is: a file media.subio classified under the category of: imagén: how do I do so that it could raise him? it is a municipal anthem

---

en mi wikia yo quiero  subir por archivo, un archivo ogg,pero  la sección: subir  archivo, no opero   como debe ser y el  archivo en  vez de subir clasificado como lo que es: un archivo media.subio clasificado bajo la categoria de : imagén ¿ como hago para que   pueda subirle? es un himno municipal.

only the text has legal validity in Spanish, any flaw of the translation in English has to adjudicarcesela to: ImTranslator 3.0

StargateWars Wikia
Hi again Angela,


 * 1) Is it possible to have article names beginning with lower-case letters? If so, how do I go about doing this?
 * 2) Could my Wikia please have a spot on the Wikia Spotlight at some point? Most appreciated.
 * 3) Is it possible to make it so that when one enters a page title into the search box to the left of each page and click "Go" it goes to that article directly, instead of to the search results? I have put one of these input boxes on the Main Page, but it's still rather annoying.
 * 4) What are the different types of input boxes? Is there a list somewhere?

Thanks immensely,

ZPMMaker 12:29, 10 September 2006 (UTC)

Wikia Poland
Hey, Angela

I've read an email from you about Polish Wikia Centre. I want to ask you about this press conference - where and when it'll happen?

I still think you're the best. You're my hero! :)

Hani

Ps. By the way, can you tell me, what's the pronounciation of word "Wikia"? In polish it's like "Veekya" :)

Uploading Favicons
I just dropped by the iPod Wiki and noticed that there was no (eg. std wikicities icon). I tried to upload one, not knowing if it would even work (it should be protected from non-admins like me). It instead shows me uploading a 0x0 ico which looks just like the wikicities logo in the image file history (with an upload log entry), and I see no change in the logo on random pages (I tried refreshing). It also created an image description page with my edit summary. This appears to be a very strange compramise between protecting the page and not protecting it, and it is definitely not supposed to do that. I still would like for the icon to work, and in case my first upload was unretrievable, I successfully uploaded the same icon to.

P.S. When I say Wikicities above, I mean Wikicities, not Wikia. The standard icon is still that of Wikicities—it should be changed to a Wikia logo. —Marco Polo 18:12, 10 September 2006 (UTC)


 * You've uploaded it to the correct place, and it looks fine. something.wikia.com/favicon.ico is a 302 redirect to something.wikia.com/images/6/64/Favicon.ico so it can be very persistant in caching, and doesn't work in certain browsers. --Splarka (talk) 05:55, 11 September 2006 (UTC)

Thank you for your kind comment...
Dear Almighty Angela (I read up a bit on you):

I'm not new to technology by a longshot, but this was was first time "Wikiing." Can we use Wiki as a verb, like Googling?

Being a novice, a question comes to mind: What's the difference between Wikia and Wikipedia? Are you simply complementary competitors? Are there rogues amongst your forces that edit each others' entries to keep each other in check? LOL!

Thx again, and I appreciated your note, which at first I thought was one of those automatic replies to all who are new, but I'm glad it was heartgiven.

Remove, please, www.vilenin.info from the black list, and I promise, that it to appear only in these 3 Wiki

With respect, Aleksandr


 * Are you the person adding these links? How is adding the same link to the home page of every Russian wiki not spam? How is vilenin relevant to those 3 wikis? Angela (talk) 11:27, 5 September 2006 (UTC)

1: This is article about Lenin (If you don't khow about him, then read http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vladimir_Lenin)
 * Yes, I am this person;
 * In "every Russian wiki" (Actually not in all) I am adding not only link on www.vilenin.info, I am adding link on www.vilenin.info with thematic to a site and to them text, but I agree, that I have gone too far. For this purpose the optimal only 3 specified wiki
 * I am not bad man. I am editor in DMOZ nejron
 * www.vilenin.info is not bad site. You can see it in
 * DMOZ
 * Yandex Directory
 * Google Directory
 * Russian Wikipedia:

 * 2
 * 3

 * How is www.vilenin.info relevant to those 3 wikis?:

2:Lenin was a The Great Philosopher (If you don't khow about him, then read http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vladimir_Lenin)

3: Lenin's Mausoleum, also known as Lenin's Tomb, situated in Red Square in Moscow (If you don't khow about it, then read http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lenin%27s_Mausoleum)

 * Unless another Russian speaker who I can trust says this link is needed on the wiki, I'm going to leave it blacklisted since you have admitted to spamming this on multiple wikis. Spam is not allowed here. Please just accept that and stop trying to promote your own site in this way. Angela (talk) 08:51, 7 September 2006 (UTC)


 * Thanks for your comments. In 1 User:Grep have already rolled away yours editing with the comment "Has returned back of a boat-maniac, has disguised a link under tinyurl" (Compare www.vilenin.info and http://tinyurl.com/juy9x) Original Russian version: "откат бота-маньяка, замаскировал линк под tinyurl" You can check up translation, for example, by http://www.translate.ru/. I think, that this actions he has already told, that this link is needed on the wiki. He has one of the biggest edits history in Russian wikies. Before, I have already promised you, that my site to appear only in 3 Wiki. Remove, please, www.vilenin.info from the black list. Thanks. With respect, Aleksandr 89.109.3.90 13:59, 7 September 2006 (UTC)


 * I see no reason for that link to exist in 3 wikis. Trying to force your own site on Wikia like this is simply spamming. Angela (talk) 13:19, 12 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Ok. 2 and 3 have no visitors and new edits. These are examples died and unnecessary sites on the Internet. I agree with you, that addition in them of relevant links senselessly and will not help to recover them. I promise, that I shall not put there the link to the www.vilenin.info, and I shall not spend time for restoring there my relevant articles removed by you by mistake together with my link. 1 actively develops and as you see, my link there is necessary. Besides in the near future, I shall change design of my site and I shall create its English-speaking version (I am master of applied mathematics and computer science (mathematician, the system programmer)). As consequence, will arise necessity of addition of my link in relevant among popular (I agree with you, that addition of relevant links in died wiki is silly) English-speaking wikies. In popular English-speaking wikies participants actively get rid of a spam besides if you will be not agree that participants have left my link, you can try to over-persuade them, or they will over-persuade you.

I do not see the reasons to leave www.vilenin.info in the black list, you can always bring it there repeatedly if I shall be engaged in a spam. Thanks, with respect, Aleksandr 89.109.9.99.

I have created new design of my site. With respect, Aleksandr 82.208.126.20 23:53, 15 September 2006 (UTC)

External sites are not needed to make the content of a wiki good. Furthermore giving out the link to your own site pegs you as someone trying to promote their own stuff. If you wish for your site to be promoted then you'd better find a member of that wiki that realy thinks that it would be a important addition and have them post that message here as proof. Furthermore, due to it's spamming potential, and lack of purposefull use, I vote that we have a site wide discussion/poll inside the forum on whether or not we should block tinyurl from Wikia to stop spammers from advertising sites on the blacklist. Dantman (Talk) 15:06, 20 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Excuse me, but I think, that you have not read through all discussion or have made it very inattentively. You have named me spammer and the proengine of own resource, it is necessary, that you to apologize before me. Only one fact, that I am the editor in DMOZ (nejron) denies an opportunity told by you. User:Grep have already rolled away Angela editing with the comment "Has returned back of a boat-maniac, has disguised a link under tinyurl". He has one of the biggest edits history in Russian wikies. I think, that this actions he has already confirmed, that this link is needed on that wiki. I am already promise, that I shall not put to other Russian wikies the link to the www.vilenin.info. I shall enlarge www.vilenin.info and create its English-speaking version. As consequence, will arise necessity of addition of my link in relevant among popular English-speaking wikies. In popular English-speaking wikies participants actively get rid of a spam besides if you will be not agree that participants have left my link, you can try to over-persuade them, or they will over-persuade you. I do not see the reasons to leave www.vilenin.info in the black list. With respect, 82.208.121.166


 * He still hasen't posted here, he may have retracted a comment, but unless you can get him to come and post here then he sure isn't enthusiastic about having your link on his wiki. You just said at the beginning of your comment that I was false in saying that velenin.info is your site, but then later on you say that you are going to expand it. Care to tell us how you can be a outsite person giving a good source while you are also saying you can change the site. Just because you have made a site english accessable dosen't mean that people will flock to adding it to their wiki. Also, removing vilenin.info allows you to place the link in other wikis, you talk about wikis activly removing spam from their wiki, but that is not the case for them all, there are many inactive wikis in which allowing you to place your link will leave it there to near never be removed. And we cannot track where it is because there are hundreds of wiki and there is no central list of changes. Furthermore you are copying statements you have said then directing them at me, if you wish to make a point then take the time to type it out yourself instead of mangling other comments together. Dantman (Talk) 14:17, 21 September 2006 (UTC)


 * Excuse me again, but I think, that you have not read through my previous comment or have made it very inattentively. I understand, that not everyone have university education and furthermore the master's university degree of one of fifty best universities of the world, therefore in the further in discussion I shall use more simple for understanding of the statement. it is necessary, that you to apologize before me.With respect, 89.109.3.148 20:20, 21 September 2006 (UTC)

To User:Dantman:

I didn't say "I was false in saying that velenin.info is your site"

I sad "You have named me spammer and the proengine of own resource, it is necessary, that you to apologize before me."

Velenin.info is my own site! You must to apologize before me for "You have named me spammer and the proengine of own resource".

"there are many inactive wikis in which allowing you to place your link will leave it there to near never be removed", - For such you may use a script as it already did ...

"Furthermore you are copying statements", - because you are not read through my previous comments or have made it very inattentively.

With respect, Aleksandr 89.109.3.148 20:20, 21 September 2006 (UTC)


 * You were named a spammer before I even came here, I have no point to apologising for continueing something that was already started before I began posting. And the spam blacklist is universal, it can't be selectively configured to affect only certain wikis. Just because you may have a degree dosen't make you correct, especialy in places that have nothing to do with degrees. Since the method of translation here is bluring the lines of what is being said, I to will list out the points of my statements. Dantman (Talk

 * Proengine is not a word defined in english(dictionary search) but from it's context it would be believed that the definition would be something allong the lines of someone who promotes something of their own creation. How does adding content to a wiki with links to your own resource not fall under that. If a wiki has a area defined where you can place links such as that such as where we allow people to post links on 3rd party tools made for the site we document then it's ok to place things there. But adding links to your own resource is like trying to promote it. If you tryed that on wikipedia then you would surely be banned. Dantman (Talk) 21:13, 21 September 2006 (UTC)
 * But I prefer "I offer my own site to examination", not "I proengine my own site". In Wikipedia is no censorship, therefore after users will be convinced, that the link added by me is more useful then present links there they will leave it. By the way, by then my site will be more in size, then now, and have an English version. With respect, Aleksandr 82.208.105.244


 * The spam blacklist is universal, parts of it cannot be disabled for only one or two wikis. Dantman (Talk) 21:13, 21 September 2006 (UTC)
 * I asked to remove www.vilenin.info from the black list, not from the black list for "only certain wikis". With respect, 89.109.0.22 21:38, 26 September 2006 (UTC)


 * If it is not spam, why are you so desperate to add a link to it. Why not contribute actual content to the wikis instead of trying only to link your own website? That is not what Wikia is for. I am not going to remove it from the blacklist since I have no reason not to think you won't simply re-add that link on lots of homepages where it does not belong. Angela (talk) 14:22, 21 September 2006 (UTC)
 * I am added relevant articles or paragraph with my link. It were removed by you by mistake together with my link. With respect, Aleksandr 89.109.3.148 20:33, 21 September 2006 (UTC)

To User:Angela: "I have no reason not to think you won't simply re-add that link on lots of homepages where it does not belong.", - Excuse me again, but it is delirium.

As you know, I could put references to redirects to my site (tinyurl or other) or to put references to other domain names of my site. But I didn't do it because, I only want, that you have recognized your mistake. Understand at last, that inability to recognize the mistakes heavier sin, than their fulfilment. You have already enough dishonoured yourselves, wish you to dishonour yourselves more or recognize, that you are mistaken? With respect, Aleksandr 89.109.3.148 20:54, 21 September 2006 (UTC)

I think, that when my site will be more in size, then now, and have an English version, you see, that Wikia need link on it. I will be back and, I think then you are recognize your mistakes at last. With respect, Aleksandr 89.109.0.22 21:38, 26 September 2006 (UTC)

Random page button
THis is most definitely the wrong forum for this but is there any way to change Special:Random to include items in the User: and Category: spaces instead of the main namespace?

Genealogy Wikia
Dear Angela, Our founder (who seems not to have edited an article in the last 13 months apart from a few dozen good reverts early this year) is the site's only bureaucrat. He is reluctant to create more sysops even though one of the greatest contributors (over 1300 article edits in 6 weeks) and constructive thinkers has been nominated and recommended. Please see http://genealogy.wikia.com/wiki/Genealogy:Requests_for_adminship and our founder's reply to my urging: http://genealogy.wikia.com/wiki/User_talk:Robin_Patterson#Sys_Ops_2

Idea on how Wikia can turn a profit
I think maybe if Wikia used a company like doubleclick.net, it would make good ad revenue. Individually a wiki here may get little traffic, but combined it should be enough to satisfy doubleclick.net. Do you think it could work? Tretonin 14:18, 25 September 2006 (UTC)

Hi! I think that you should change Sidebar for spanish. I think that you can do that editing MediaWiki:Sidebar/es. I would like to put Homepage to link to Portada, and List of Wikia to Lista de Wikias, because those pages are in spanish. Sorry for my english XD

iPod Wikia stewardship
Good day, Angela. I took a liking to what was started over at iPod Wiki, and started really filling it out with content, formatting, templates, etc. - much like we've done over at SW1MUSH. Who is the admin over at iPod Wiki? If there isn't one, or there isn't an active one, may I respectfully request investure as an admin, based on my "references" and experience at SW1MUSH (bureaucrat-admin)? I also contribute at Wookieepedia (senior editor), Battlestar Wiki, and Wikipedia itself, with nary a complaint or conflict. I only ask to help get & keep iPod Wiki rolling, and ward off vandals and abusers. Thanks, -- Hawke / Rtufo 15:24, 28 September 2006 (UTC) iPod Wiki - Hawke's User page

various trekkie things
Hi Angela -- i've been transitioning over to "stexpanded" from "memory-alpha" to try and move some things that have been placed on the wrong wiki, over to the other.

i really like stexpanded, but i think there is an organization problem with the sysops -- and there is a real vacuum when it comes to wiki policy.
 * one user (with no major edits) was awarded admin status with no explanation and began protecting pages that you had recently unprotected.
 * pages i have worked on have been blanked out, again by admins, and replaced with deletion messages without explanation except "there's no way in hell this should be added".
 * i also had some pretty simple (moving articles to simplest possible titles, again, a staple of the wiki idea) page moves reverted before i had a chance to explain myself.
 * another user's submissions were being deleted because admins admittedly had a grudge against them.

now i hear they're blocking out unregistereds. is there some requirement wikia makes for keeping the page friendly and active with policy defining these actions, or are these ideas freely up to the admins who make them.

not trying to stir the pot, just feel like i could have been better received. i have a pretty good record as an admin at Memory Alpha, but i'm having a hard time keeping a cool head faced with the roadblocks that stexpanded has presented. -- Captain M.K.B. 14:39, 5 October 2006 (UTC)
