New Template
How would I create a new Template? -Dingocrikey


 * Hi, all you need to do is create a page with the title "Template:Whatever". The content of that page will show on any other page, when you type in


 * This actually works with other pages too, if there isn't a template with that name the system looks for a mainspace article with that name. But it's best to use "Template:" to save confusion.


 * Hope that helps -- sannse (talk) 12:51, 1 February 2008 (UTC)

FFXIclopedia problems
In case you look at your page and not diffs ;) - c:ffxi:FFXIclopedia:Site problems -- 06:53, 1 February 2008 (UTC)

Request for Adminship
Sannse,I was wondering if I could become an admin/sysop for Custom Bionicle Wiki since the only other admin hasn't been on in a while, and there are no bureaucrats to be found.The Wiki is in need of help,and this will probably help a lot. The Oracle23 02:53, 3 February 2008 (UTC)
 * There seem to be a few people editing there, so it's best for all the active users to discuss this and decide who should be admin. That can be one of you, or all of you, but it's best for the current community to decide that.  Let me know what you all decide -- sannse (talk) 23:24, 3 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Nobody has picked anyone yet,and I set up a page. The Oracle23 15:20, 18 February 2008 (UTC)

ru.writers
Hi, there's a message for you at c:ru.writers:User talk:New-Gen. However, it's in Russian, so I've made a translation for you. Медиа (Wassily Steik) 19:57, 3 February 2008 (UTC)

Wikia? You're in russian section of the project and you'd better write in Russian or ask someone to translate. To make things more clear, I'll make an example: a high building is building by some rules, but every flat with it's people and families had it's own laws and rules and follows 'em.

There're explanations below, which define what's "multi-licensing":

Multi-licensing is an internet project where content can be placed with different kinds of licensing, either author's or free. It's required that for author's texts and images provided by authors must be specified a name (or nickname) of user or users who worked on it. All website content can be used in other projects (full articles, parts of text, images), but it's required to link to a website where that content was taken from and to write author's name, when content is used in free projects or for science or education. It's required to pay to authors for a commercial usage of website's content.

This project isn't free and can't be free for all articles and images under GFDL terms, especially for author's content published here.

As you see, that non-free content isn't situable for Wikia, because GFDL allows commercial usage without any additional requirements (comparing to free websites). Perhaps we should look for that "author's texts" (maybe they were copied from non-free resources in the past) and delete them. However, it's up to you how to deal with it. I'm ready to help translating something else if needed. Медиа (Wassily Steik) 19:57, 3 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the help. I've left a reply, basically saying that content on Wikia must be under the GFDL to coply with our terms of use.  Perhaps you could help by making sure what I've written is understood by all on the wiki?  That would be a big help.  Thanks again - sannse (talk) 23:22, 3 February 2008 (UTC)

Pardus wiki
Hello there, i need to ask a favor, will you please close this wiki. My reasons for this request are simple. I have become ill and can't really help anymore, no one really visits it at all, The few users have done little and i think The wiki will just stagnate and be left alone so will you please close it down.--Ultraice 22:44, 3 February 2008 (UTC)


 * I would suggest leaving it be. 56 articles is a great start, and a wiki with a start like that may attract a new admin to take it on.  In the mean time, our global users will keep an eye out for spam and other problems.  Even a very slow trickle of visitors to the wiki is good, and will help it in its chances of being restarted.  You've doe a great job of getting the first stage going, the wiki has content and the possibility of a great future!  I hope your health improves, and we see you back one day in the future :) -- sannse (talk) 23:29, 3 February 2008 (UTC)

E-Wrestling Encyclopedia problem
Hey there Sennse,

I wanted to check in and see what to do on a page that you restricted on the fouth of February. I'm speaking of Kovu Rex and there is a user who wants to have that page reinstated. What can we do here? Thanks for the help! Sundogs user talk 17:29, 6 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Hi Sundogs, it's up to you :) If you think the user is genuine and is going to write a decent page, then I'd suggest unprotecting.  If you think it will be more of the same offensive vandalism, then best leave it protected.  You are the best person to decide that as the site admin.  Let me know if you need help though.  -- sannse (talk) 18:38, 6 February 2008 (UTC)

'top content'
Hello, I am a user on Unyclopedia. There, my name is Ye Olde Luke.

I just have a question: why is your user page included as one of the Top Content pages? Aabicus 03:26, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

P.S. If it's OK with you, please respond on uncyclopedia, under User:Ye Olde Luke.

Admin Request
May I please become an admin for the Diablo Wiki? Its pretty dead, but I've been editing it for a little while, and figure that having a few extra powers will certainly help. Especially since someone just vandalised a page and it would be nice to be able to block them. There's also Kirkburn that seems to be active, but I haven't noticed anything major from him lately. I wouldn't mind being a Bureaucrat either, because although the wiki is dead at the moment, a new Diablo game will come out sometime in the future which will bring the wiki back to life and I plan on being here when it does. I'm good-natured and think fairly, I will only use my powers for good lol. And then I'd be able to accept people that I think could be good administrators, as well as making Kurkburn one, who I think also deserves it.

Atrumentis 12:18, 10 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Hi, I've made you admin and beaurocrat :) Kirkburn doesn't need to be made admin, he is a Wikia Helper so has admin access on all wikis. But this makes him the ideal person to ask if you need any help or advice.  He works specifically on gaming Wikia, so should be able to help with any problems.  Or of course, you can leave another message here.  Have fun! -- sannse (talk) 18:17, 11 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Ohh, thank you very much :) Atrumentis 05:28, 28 February 2008 (UTC)

Manga Wiki
I understand your concerns. Normally, I would not ask for bureaucrat access so early, but I need it so Dantman and I can begin moving it to Wikia ACG. You can see the discussion at http://anime.wikia.com/wiki/User_talk:Dantman#Wikia_ACG. DragonBallZ 21:10, 18 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Please see my email to you. ACG stuff will need to wait for now.  -- sannse (talk) 12:02, 19 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Ok. Thanks anyway! Cheers. DragonBallZ 12:26, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

German althistory
Hello Sansse, since today there is also a German version of the alternative history wiki and it would be very nice if the interwiki function would be extended with that wiki. Could you please help us with that? That would be most appreciated. Yours, --Karsten vK (talk) 19:24, 20 February 2008 (UTC)

Thanks Again
Hey Sannse, thanks again for your guidance about the (possible) COPPA violation, I have reverted the  birthyear on the users page and also double checked the situation with a Wookieepedia administrator who I have asked the same question, I have left THIS message on the users talk page informing him about the situation.

Help!!!
Hello, Sannse. I am w:c:imagine:User_talk:Mightyerick, administer of Imagine. There is a problem with the "Most Popular/Most Visited" bar, it just does not work. The only thing it shows is an alphabetical list of articles. And the views/per/edit system does not work too. How can I fix it? Do you know how to?

Mass Effect admin
I wish to be an Admin at www.Masseffetc.wikia.com. i have sent my Adminship request twice already and the Admin there is In active and won't respond so i am asking you this.Thank you Bye "Mail Box""Nest" 17:28, 23 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Hi we talked on IRC, let me know how it goes :) -- sannse (talk) 11:19, 24 February 2008 (UTC)

A little problem...
I have a problem on Custom Bionicles.It seems that when I go to my category,there appears to be an infinite amount of sub-categories under By The Oracle23(just click the + to its left).I was wondering if you could help me?I've tried nearly everything.I've even taken a screenshot of it.

The Oracle23 19:05, 23 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Nice bug! The problem is that you have "Category:By The Oracle23" in "Category:By The Oracle23" (via the tabs template).  So it's actually acting as you asked it to, and showing all of itself, within itself :)  The only way around this is not to have that category inside itself.  Maybe by not using the template - just copying the bits of the template code you need into the category text? -- sannse (talk) 11:44, 24 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Ok,I'm going to try that now.And thanks for selecting me as one of the possible admins!I appreciate it a lot.The Oracle23 15:19, 24 February 2008 (UTC)

Favicon for Custom Bionicles
Sannse,it's me again,The Oracle23 from Custom Bionicles again(sheesh,I ask a lot of questions,don't I?),and I was wondering how you make a favicon?I already have the image(its .),I just don't know how to apply it to the site.Thanks a bunch!--The Oracle23 18:40, 24 February 2008 (UTC)
 * That one is just a little too big... 16 x 16 pixels is the maximum. But if I have time this afternoon, I'll try shrinking it and converting it to the right file type.  If you want to remake it the right size, go ahead, and I'll convert and upload. -- sannse (talk) 12:25, 25 February 2008 (UTC)
 * That's perfect!Thanks!--The Oracle23 22:04, 25 February 2008 (UTC)

The Simpsons Wiki
The Simpsons Wiki is in poor shape. Some pages have been nominated for deletion for weeks, and there is a statement on your main page that is dead wrong. It needs a new administrator (and maybe a new beaureaucrat) because few of there current ones are active (in fact, the site manager has edited in over six months). I am fairly new to it, but I have over 30,000 edits (many of them to Simpsons related pages) on as Scorpion0422 on Wikipedia, and if you would be willing to make me an administrator, I would do my best to help clean the place up. Another user there who could help is Dr. Ralph Wiggum because he has been the most active. -- Brian McClure 19:15, 24 February 2008 (UTC)


 * I left a message on Brian's talk page... I'm happy to see that someone wants to help out on the Simpsons! -- Danny (talk ) 19:36, 24 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Yep good to see :) Brian, I'll leave you in Danny's capable hands -- sannse (talk) 12:26, 25 February 2008 (UTC)

Default Widgets for Wikis
Hi, Sannse! We switched from the old Monobook to the new Monaco skin on the Earthen Ring Wiki, today, and we're really enjoying using widgets for the first time (if only we had been informed that so many of the requests we made could have been solved with them)! However, we'd like to set some of the widgets as the wiki's defaults. How can we do that? Have I just overlooked an option?

Also, the Widget Dashboard appears to have some appearance problems on my computer with that skin: the close and settings buttons for each widget are not attached to the widgets, themselves. Is this a known issue?

Thanks in Advance, --Lilithia 21:32, 26 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Hi Lilithia, glad you like the new skin! I've not looked at the widgets on this yet, but I'll look into these issues tomorrow and get back to you -- sannse (talk) 23:19, 26 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Hi Sannse! Any update?  --Lilithia 17:08, 28 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Oops! Sorry I didn't get back to you. As far as I can see, it's not possible for an admin to define the default widgets.  But I'm in San Francisco all this week with the rest of the Wikia staff, so I'll be able to find out if this is a possible future development.  On the Widget Dashboard, I can't see what you see.  Can you give me some more details?  What browser/Operating system do you use?  And if possible, could you upload a screenshot to show what you see?  Many thanks -- sannse (talk) 23:12, 2 March 2008 (UTC)


 * Thanks for looking into the widget situations for me. As for the bug, after looking into it over the weekend the problem appears to be with the version of browser I am using at a specific computer: IE 6.0.  It is likely that the bug only occurs in this older browser, so no worries.  Thank you!  --Lilithia 12:24, 3 March 2008 (UTC)


 * Ah, IE6... I've reported that to the technical team.  -- sannse (talk) 22:44, 5 March 2008 (UTC)

Deleted?
Hi Sannse,I was going to check out the main page,put I noticed that some things were deleted,such as the logo,welcome to image,ect.,and the adminship election page,and I looked up the history for that page,and LittlemanJ95 deleted it.I'm not sure what's going on.--The Oracle23 22:07, 26 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Hi, the founder returned, and wasn't happy with the admin election page. I've cleaned things up, removed his access, and explained to him that the community needs to be the ones to choose admins now.  If there are any problems tonight, please contact any of the community team or one of the Janitors for help -- sannse (talk) 23:17, 26 February 2008 (UTC)

FFXI monaco
Hey sannse :)

We've set our custom skin to Monaco tonight and we've chosen this thread on our forums as the place to compile errors, bugs, and other odd things(including a wierd script error for a few). Please take a look at it when you get a chance. I've also noticed that diffs are still in monobook on the new skin, hope this helps with that ticket. Before I go, was the search box "Guess the article you want" from Quartz not included in monobook, because it doesn't seem to be working on Monaco. Let me know.

Thanks a lot. -- 06:07, 27 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Hi. Please can you put any issues at Forum:Monaco skin now available in preferences.  Best to try and keep them in a few places, not all over Wikia.  Thanks for letting me know about diffs, that's in trac.  The search predict will be back, it just needs a little work to ensure it is compatible with the new skin -- sannse (talk) 11:48, 27 February 2008 (UTC)

Admin Request For silkroad online wikia
Hi, I'm requesting administrator for the silkroad online wikia. I was also wondering if it is possible to change the wikia url from www.silkroad.wikia.com to www.silkroadonline.wikia.com as it seams more fitting, would help avoid confusion between the Silk road trading route and the game.

I have a bone to pick with you
Remember a few months back when I asked about individual blogs for wikis, you investigated for me (which I appreciate) and we found out this wasn't an option. I'm clicking around on Halopedia, and find they have their own Special blogging service! What gives? -- LordTBT Talk! 05:33, 1 March 2008 (UTC)


 * Hi LordTB. We've got two different things going on here, the blogs that we talked about take a special page and export it to an external blog. The Halo blogs are part of their move to a "magazine wiki".  This is a wiki with social tools, games, competitions and blogs... as well as the more traditional content.  There have been a few of these for a while. ArmchairGM was the first and there are also gaming, politics and other versions.   Moving Halo to this style of wiki is something new that we and the Halo community are trying out.  Depending on how that goes, there are likely to be more chances to use this new stuff in the future.  Hope that explains it all :) -- sannse (talk) 21:43, 2 March 2008 (UTC)


 * Right, I'm familiar with the magazine wikis here at Wikia. When it's decided these other social features will be available to other wikias, please let me know, as I would be interested. -- LordTBT Talk! 22:34, 2 March 2008 (UTC)


 * Sure, I'll keep that in mind -- sannse (talk) 23:13, 2 March 2008 (UTC)

2Moons Wiki activity
In the middle of last year a 2Moons wiki was created at 2moons.wikia.com I have not seen much activity except a few initial pages since October. I would like to start populating this wiki, but nobody is active. I am requesting admin on the wiki (buer) to start bringing the place back to life. Thanks Phoenix 18:18, 4 March 2008 (UTC)


 * Sure! I've added you as admin and bureaucrat on that wiki.  Have fun! -- sannse (talk) 22:54, 5 March 2008 (UTC)

I am considering turning the Stadium wiki to a sport wiki (in general). It has been abandoned since June 2007, and I would like to become an admin there. Please help! LB22   (talk to me!)  Email me! 15:20, 8 March 2008 (UTC)


 * Do you mean sport.wikia? That is a general sports wiki already isn't it? -- sannse (talk) 17:50, 10 March 2008 (UTC)

Nope!
Nope, it is just forums. I would like to make it like Wikia Gaming, but have articles, and links to the corresponding Wikis on there! LB22   (talk to me!)  Email me! 18:01, 10 March 2008 (UTC)


 * Can you link me to what you mean? I'm looking at http://sport.wikia.com/wiki/Special:Recentchanges ... I don't see any forum activity there at the moment -- sannse (talk) 18:19, 10 March 2008 (UTC)


 * Well, the plan was just to have forums, there wasn't actually any there, but it was just some small county baseball results but no real activity since July 07. Please let me have admin rights so can redevelop it! LB22   (talk to me!)  Email me! 18:22, 10 March 2008 (UTC)


 * I'm going to say no at the moment, because you have another wiki that needs your attention for a while, I think it best to concentrate on that one for now :) -- sannse (talk) 18:39, 10 March 2008 (UTC)

External Link
Hey there and Good Morning from the U.S. of A.,

One of my users at E-Wrestling is having a problem with externally using his personal website to his wikia page. Is this a bug or a block in the system for not having unwanted needs? Please post response on here and my talk page please for me to read it quicker. Thanks. Sundogs user talk 14:57, 11 March 2008 (UTC)


 * Hey back :) I'm not quite clear on what you mean here... what exactly is he trying to do?  Perhaps you could link me to the page he's trying to make? -- sannse (talk) 16:58, 11 March 2008 (UTC)


 * I think he's talking about using an external link in an article and that website is blocked by the global spam filter. -- 20:04, 11 March 2008 (UTC)


 * One of the users is having an issue with externally link a page that is somehow blacklisted and Jack_Phoenix informed me that I could use MediaWiki:Spam-whitelist page. I have not heard from this user yet but I assume the best worked out. Sundogs user talk 00:35, 12 March 2008 (UTC)

How do I know if the wiki is mine? And if it is, how do I stop people from making more pages? Warlordehlek 22:41, 11 March 2008 (UTC)


 * Wikia wikis are never owned by one person, they are open wikis that belong to the whole community. One person usually starts them, and they will be the first admin (a person with some extra controls, such as the ability to delete pages).  You can't "own"  bzpower.wikia, but you are very welcome to edit there. There is no way to stop other people adding pages - the idea is that they do! -- sannse (talk) 23:24, 11 March 2008 (UTC)

How do you find out if you're an Admin? Warlordehlek 23:50, 11 March 2008 (UTC)


 * If you are an admin, you will see extra controls at the top of each article (where it says 'edit') including 'delete' and 'protect'. If you are joining an existing community, you won't be an admin yet -- sannse (talk) 16:56, 12 March 2008 (UTC)

Hi there Sannse. I would like to request an IP check on Halo Fanon. This one. Could you tell me if they match up with any other users IP? Thanks, H*bad (talk)

Request for Adminship.
Hello, Sannse. I am Blue from the Square Wiki. I am an admin, but I wish to become bureaucrat, because I have recently acquired trustworthy editors to help with more administrative tasks in the Wiki. Furthermore the existing bureaucrat for this wiki has not logged in for many months now. I am a rollback user in the Final Fantasy Wiki, bureaucrat in the Kingdom Hearts Wiki and sysop in the Megami Tensei Wiki. Now I wish to improve further the Square Wiki. Please consider my request for bureaucracy. You may contact me here or at my talk page in the Square Wiki. Thank you. [^_^]/ 06:16, 13 March 2008 (UTC)

Hello, the page http://fr.film.wikia.com/wiki/Franck_Laroze doesn't respect the GFDL because the page that should list the authors on french wikipedia have been deleted (before), but admin Dagniaud don't want to delete it. I am contacting you because I have seen your message about his 11 accounts and some french wikipedia users think it may be Nezumi, a former wp-fr admin banned by arbcom for using multiple sockpuppets, so he should be watched carefully, if its him you should see BSSGW152 St Geneviève on the whois (IP usually start with 83.114, 82.121, 86.218 ...). Akeron 17:37, 14 March 2008 (UTC)

Bionicle Fan Fiction Wikia
Hello sannse, it's me Crazy-Lihkan38 from the Custom Bionicle Wikia! My request for a wikia was rejected, and it told me of a new wikia, the Bionicle Fan Fiction Wikia. I was wondering, since it has like only 3 users and an admin that never comes online (in fact, the users don't either) I'd liek to wonder if I could become an admin their and revive it. I'll add content and get some Custom Bionicle buddies to help edit. What do you say?

Garlic mustard photo
Hi Sannse

We are doing an educational piece on removing garlic mustard from the Eloise Butler Wildflower Garden in Minneapolis, Minnesota. The Garden just celebrated its 100th birthday last year and is the oldest wildflower garden in the U.S.

I love your photo of garlic mustard and am wondering if you would allow us to use in on our information card? Please let me know. I haven't used Wiki talk before so if I don't hear from you, I'll write to you at the gmail address you have on the garlic mustard page.

Thanks in advance. The garden is owned by the Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board so it is a non-profit. We can't pay you for the use but would appreciate if you would allow us to use it. I'll send you a copy of the card it appears on.

Bot flag
Hi,

One sysop of fr.guildwars.wikia is asking the bot flag for his bot account : AlkiBot. Are you among the people that can do this ? If not, could you point me where to go fo this ? I've use the search without any success in retreiving where did i made my own resquest a few months ago... By the way, he's using the python bot, but i think i'll try to make him use Autowikibrowser some day in the future...

Thanks. — TulipVorlax 22:07, 18 March 2008 (UTC)

Templates on Central
Templates at Central can be used at any other wiki with relative ease; see Forum:Central_as_Backup_Namespace_for_Templates%3F. Also, see, , and for how I'm using them - and, for that matter, how I'm having trouble with them. It seems that the code as copied from Wikipedia doesn't work correctly on Wikia. --Jesdisciple (talk) 23:51, 18 March 2008 (UTC)

IP check
Hi Sannse. If you could do me a big favor, could you check the IP addresses of Endor chicken, Guy JzG Chapman and Darth Vacatour and let me know if any of the IPs are similar? There was some vandalism on Star Wars Fanon that would be so random if they weren't the same person, so I'd like to know if they are, in fact, the same people. Thanks! :D - Brandon Rhea

Gaiapedia/Wikia ACG/Requests Status

 * :/ I'm probably going to end up typing to much again, so feel free to skim first...

Hey, sannse, I just thought I should notify you about a few changes. Primarily I've been narrowing my focus, and changing some of it around.

The first thing is about the Gaiapedia. I've finally decided it's a good time to leave it, I found a new editor who became highly active on the wiki (Q Cumba FX), and made him Sysop. So I can happily state, that the completely dead Wiki I adopted erm... wow... a year and a half ago, has become an active and autonomous wiki. So besides peaking in on it once in awhile, or helping on something if the Sysop there needs help, I'm not going to pay much attention to it anymore.

Also, for Wikia ACG, I finally made a few updates on the page (The Wikia ACG page on the Projects wiki is now the main information area, instead of copying things over on multiple pages on Central, Animepedia, and there). The list of wiki in the project (w:c:projects:Wikia ACG/Involved Wiki) has changed a fair bit. All the strike'd out wiki there are in a sort of semi-abandoned state. Meaning that while at one point someone there decided it would be a good idea to have the wiki join the project, but ended up abandoning it or the wiki itself went dead, and so they are siting in a state where while some of them may be configured as a Wikia ACG wiki, the decision on if the wiki is going to stay on that list or not is left to the community there if any exists or shows up there.

So, with the Gundam Wiki being ValiantHeart's area, the GaoGaiGar-Betterman Wiki being Kuukai2‎'s area, AliceSoft being Afker's area, and the Yu-Gi-Oh! Wiki being a completely independent wiki which decided to join the project. The actual list of wiki I have direct involvement in, is down to just the Narutopedia and the Animepedia.

Actually, that direct involvement isn't even there as much anymore. On the Narutopedia, the community has grown a fair bit. Not in all ways, but it's definitely grown. Unfortunately, it hasn't grown much in the area of being able to hunt down stubs or other stuff. So my role there has now mostly funneled down to tagging new Stubs, tagging poor copies for replacement (Forgetting to copy from source and instead copying from page text), tagging images with no rationale, and helping a little in catching the vandalism and other stuff that TheUltimate3 misses (he's good at catching stuff, but unfortunately he sometimes misses some stuff in his reverts, or some of the vandalism that vandals he's dealt with have made).

For the most part I probably wanted to notify you of this, cause I was thinking of creating a Game Guide Wiki for the game Okami which I've recently found to be the best game I've ever played. ~ NOTASTAFF Daniel Friesen (DanTMan, Nadir Seen Fire) (talk) (tricks) (current topic) Mar 20, 2008 @ 06:51 (UTC)
