I want to be an admin of Gurren Lagann wiki
Gurren Lagann wiki was founded last year. The founder promised me and PK to become admin once the wiki became more popular but so far, I haven't become an admin yet. There are many unnecessary pages to be deleted. Please make me an admin now.--Ritsuko 07:23, 1 August 2009 (UTC)


 * If your founder has been inactive for a while, you should discuss the matter of adminship with your fellow users and come to a decision regarding who should become an admin. If the founder is still around, it would be quite rude for Fuzzy to go around installing admins, and you should talk to the founder of the wiki. I hope this is useful. :) Wjxhuang,  the 888th Avatar  {Talk} 07:38, 1 August 2009 (UTC)

Thanks
Thank you very much for replying, Uberfuzzy. In the future, whom exactly should I contact on Central Wikia for help or guidance. I mean, who do you think is the most busy staff member, and who might be less so and available for comment? Should I just post a general query to Wikia's community through e-mail next time? Please respond ! :) Ralnon 09:32, 2 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Special:Contact is likely your best bet. Messages on talk pages get lost, or buried, or if you ask multiple people, you might run the risk of people stepping on each other's toes. By sending email, only 1 person at a time will be working on it. Also, all records of the conversation are kept together, so nothing is lost if the issue needs to be handed off to another staff member. --Uberfuzzy 10:07, 2 August 2009 (UTC)

Links
How many internal links to the same article are good for each page? For example, should a character's page be linked to more than once in the same article? There's a vote currently running on the F.E.A.R. wikia about this: one side feels that pages in which over a dozen (sometimes two dozen) links to the same article are perfectly acceptable while the other side feels one link to each article per page is enough. Examples of each side are the Point Man page, which was cut down to only one link to each particular article, and the F.E.A.R. First Encounter Assault Recon page, which features 20 links to the Point Man's page, 8 links to the Alma Wade page, and various other items that are linked quite a bit. The vote is occurring here. It seems to be a sensitive issue and has led to some arguments between board members.  AlessaGillespie  Talk   Contributions  11:40, 2 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Personally, I only link the first occurrence. I will link other times later if its important or fairly farther down the page, but generally, 1st is good enough for me. --Uberfuzzy 08:21, 3 August 2009 (UTC)

Interwiki map
Hello,

Could you add an interwiki map to the french supernatural wiki to link it to the two other wikis about supernatural, the english version and the chinese one? Could you contact me when this is finished? (I have sent a mail to Zuirdj, but he doesn't seems to have logged in for a long time... Thank you, Kevin51340, 21:48, 5 August 2009 (UTC)

More Moon Wars Trouble!
Iceanator189 decided to make Moon Wars Fanon. He did it out of spite since we blocked him for whining for his powers back. As you can say the normal Moon Wars Wiki is its own fanon entirely! Can you please close down the imposter wiki? I made Moon Wars. LeekDuck and I created the game. He ripped off our idea! Flame of the Candle 16:18, 6 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Sorry, but people are allowed to make wikis like that without your permission. Unless you can make a copyright claim over the material, and send it via official channels, theres nothing you can do to take them down. --Uberfuzzy 18:10, 6 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Leekduck and I did when we started it. Flame of the Candle  18:42, 6 August 2009 (UTC)

transclusion problem?
Could you see this and this (the parts of the DPL)? Those edits seem oddly peculiar... I'm doubting the users did that, and am wondering if something has occurred recently which may have caused this? -- Sixorish 16:57, 6 August 2009 (UTC)
 * this one too. How convenient of them to be added to the category. (they all date 25 - 26 July, too) -- Sixorish 17:08, 6 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Sadly, yes, those were bugs for a while in the RTE. Anything in, not just magic words, but anything transcluded, was being perm substed into place. and also that random \n after h2's also (different bug, not connected to the substing). note the dates on those was a couple weeks ago. Havent seen any of those in a while though, pretty sure it got squashed quickly. If you see it on recent edits, let us know. --Uberfuzzy 18:24, 6 August 2009 (UTC)

Well, another admin edited on August 6, but didn't fix it. He may have just missed it, but who knows. I suppose it makes sense, however, we have quite a lot of editors now and virtually all of our pages use templates, but there have been only about three cases of this happening; isn't it a bit low? About the \n: I don't think it's a bug, because the template uses \n (to form a new line after the headings) -- Sixorish 21:29, 6 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Some of the RTE bugs only come up if you do exactly a certain set of steps, which means they dont come up often. And the editor its self tends to get some out of weekly cycle updates if a bad enough bug is found, because we cant have people waiting a whole week for something to get fixed when its as important as the editor. --Uberfuzzy 18:15, 11 August 2009 (UTC)

I see, thanks for the reply. One more thing: do you think this edit could be another, or the same, bug? -- Sixorish 01:25, 12 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Ew, this one too. Should I keep reporting these, or do you have enough to find the problem(s)..? -- Sixorish 01:48, 12 August 2009 (UTC)

excuse me
My account on the Sonic Fanon Wiki was hacked, and I was wondering if you could help me. Twilightwizard0309 18:20, 6 August 2009 (UTC)

Hey. Remember how you got a report of a problem? Well, that wasn't a problem since the guy in question had a different name and is on the list, too. Sorry that person bothered you with that.

Hello
I am Penko, sysop of finnish RuneScapeWikia. This wiki needs a new bureaucrat because the current bureaucrats aren't active. There's no one who can take sysop rights away, and there's no one who can give sysop rights. The founder of finnish RuneScapeWikia doesn't have bureaucrat or sysop rights anymore. Current bureaucrats accounts names are TILT and Chutt-Riit.

Here's a link: RuneScapeWikia

--Penko 16:34, 11 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Hi. Have you talked about who you want to be made a bureaucrat? --Uberfuzzy 18:16, 11 August 2009 (UTC)
 * There are two users who want to be bureaucrat: Penko and Aku ankka. Others haven't talked about this. These are currently active sysops: Penko, Aku ankka, Jaah, and Pömpeli100. These users are active, they don't vandalize, they block all vandals, they have made good edits, and they all have over 2000 edits. --Penko 15:12, 12 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Never mind, TILT made users Jaah and Aku ankka bureaucrats. --Penko 15:18, 12 August 2009 (UTC)

Rox
Hey, this is Andrewrox under an IP. As you know I have the TiptonWiki, but we are rivals with the Suite Life Wiki. But that is the least of my worries. Since mine opened, heaps of other wikis have opened, but they actually have no content. Here are some that have NO content.

http://tslod.wikia.com/wiki/The_Suite_Life_On_Deck_Wiki - no content, no theme ect.

http://thesuitelifeondeck.wikia.com/wiki/The_Suite_Life_on_Deck_Wiki - another sham.

I'll get soeme more later. Bye!

Hey, this is a user at TiptonWiki. As Andrewrox said, there are heaps of other SuiteLife wikis that have not been edited or have only had 1 page created. Here are some more.

http://suitezackandcody.wikia.com/wiki/Suite_life_of_zack_and_cody_Wiki - no content whatsoever.

Look, I know that having multiple wikis is fine, but the only active ones are Tipton (will be heaps active when Andrew returns), and Suite Life (which is going inactive). These wikis are utterly pointless, and I don't know why they are there. Can you send a message to the admins, or just delete them? I don't know why we really need them. Please tell me your answer on this page. Thankyou. --Scradgum111 08:06, 19 August 2009 (UTC)

Can you delete it please. Delete everything, the entire wiki. I've no use for it anymore, and I don't want someone besides me adopting it because it was just meant for me to be able to test various Wiki-code, and such, but due to time constraints (college, work) I haven't been on any Wikia's at all lately.

.css problems
Hi, perhaps I'm an idiot but I just can't get this to work and need some help... I've prepared a style sheet for my wiki at http://mightandmagic.wikia.com/wiki/User:Dubiel/monobook.css - previewing it gives the right results, but when I add the same code to the core monobook.css (http://mightandmagic.wikia.com/wiki/MediaWiki:Monobook.css) there is no such change. The code came from a few Monaco wikis, which may be the problem, but that wouldn't really explain why I can view it normally in my own custom monobook.css. I'm not really skilled enough to know what's going on. Could you please help out with this? --Dubiel 11:40, 19 August 2009 (UTC)


 * This can be done by going to Special:Preferences on that Wiki, and going to the second tab. Scroll down and mark the box, then it'll be activated. Tedjuh10 - Talk 12:01, 19 August 2009 (UTC)


 * A thousand thanks, it works perfectly! I have one more concern, it's an upload bug... I have uploaded a new version of my logo twice (see http://mightandmagic.wikia.com/wiki/File:Wiki.png), but the original version remains unchanged. The only difference is the thumbnail, which reflects the new image, but the image itself is refusing to be accepted in favour of the old one. I've uploaded it several times now, even deleted the old versions, but nada. Help here would be vastly appreciated... --Dubiel 12:40, 19 August 2009 (UTC)


 * Just wait a while, this is a bug on Wikia. Sometimes it takes very long for these changes to work properly. If it doesn't work tomorrow, it's something else, but it might take up to a few hours. If it doesn't work tomorrow, contact the staff using Special:Contact, or of course, you can wait for Uberfuzzy to respond. Tedjuh10 - Talk 13:59, 19 August 2009 (UTC)

He's right about the logo, we're still working out the kinks in our image cache system, it seems to want to hold onto certain things longer then others. It looks fixed now. Nice skin there btw. --Uberfuzzy 16:08, 19 August 2009 (UTC)

uploading problem
On The Dog Island Wiki I was trying to upload an image of Darna but every time I click "upload" it just clears the box where it puts the file source and so I cannot upload the image. Can you help? -- M  e  l  o  n   24  7  17:09, 19 August 2009 (UTC)
 * I've seen that before. It means your browser has some bad javascript stuck somewhere. Clear your browser's file cache, and restart it, and try again. --Uberfuzzy 17:22, 19 August 2009 (UTC)

It's still not working but apparently TheDogIsland is having that problem as well. I could upload images on StrategyWiki yesterday- if it was the bad javascript thing, wouldn't I just not be able to upload any images at all? I also tried uploading an image on Game Story Wiki, one of my other wikis, and it did the same thing there. Possibly a wikia bug? -- M  e  l  o  n   24  7  09:02, 21 August 2009 (UTC)
 * R0cky tried uploading an image yesterday too and it worked for him, but he uses firefox so it might be a problem that only people with IE are having. I don't have firefox so I have to use IE, and I assume TheDogIsland does as well. -- M  e  l  o  n   24  7  08:34, 22 August 2009 (UTC)

Copied WP Page corrupting page display
Hi Uberfuzzy, I've just copied a Wikipedia page explaining categorization & it has corrupted the new page's display with the side bar menu on top of the lhs of the main page (area) & the spotlights appearing over the bottom of the pages ? - here & original source page is here (on wikipedia).

I remember seeing this (effect) before but cannot remember the fix (if it was fixed). (its not a major problem as was just filling some red links in from wanted pages list for pages that may be useful & linked to by other pages - but often creates more links than it clears up when using WP as a source for explanation pages).

- thanks in advance BulldozerD11 10:11, 21 August 2009 (UTC)


 * Thanks Uberfuzzy, I see you adjusted some of the other WP derived templates & that I appeared to have stuck the TW cleanup template inside one of the WP header templates in error. oops ! missed that one. Thanks again for fix - BulldozerD11 16:19, 21 August 2009 (UTC)

Cleaning Up
Hi there,

I saw you deleted some spam or vandalism pages on the Dutch Dofus Wikia. Thanks a lot ! The wikia got a bit inactive and a place for spam, but I'm trying to change it into a decent wikia. But the main thing was, how do you delete pages? Because I find a lot of spam on that wikia, but the only thing I can do about it, is marking it for delete, but that isn't helping very much.

Greets Koentjuh1 00:31, 30 August 2009 (UTC)


 * Hi, you can delete pages if you're an Administrator on the Wiki, you can see Help:User access levels for details, or, if you're on the Dofus Wiki, you can read the Dutch version, Help:Gebruiker toegang levels.

Small favor
Hey Uber, hope everything's going well. On the RuneScape wiki there's recently been a string of vandal bot threats. Now, thanks your giving us the checkuser tool, most admins are confident that this will be a minor nuisance at most, however, many within the general editor population seem to have a bit of anxiety that the wiki will be attacked at a low admin activity time. Therefore, if you'd being willing to post a quick message on the forum topic about the availability of staff and your ability to respond fairly quickly to threats once notified, I'm sure it would help reassure some of the editors whom, both openly (and privately), have expressed concern. Many thanks.-- 17:43, September 1, 2009 (UTC)

Justyn, the bureaucrats has been missing for a long time, he appointed two sysop adminstrator a few years back before he went missing. 2 sysop was Battlefranky and Mugiwara Franky but Battle Franky is rarly around and MF is the only person who is managing the wikia that is now getting too large for one person so we need to open a vote to select more bureaucrats so can you help us please? I have already asked Angela and Sennse but both of them are taking a long time to respond and you appear to be faster then both of them

Closing Down of Wiki's
Hi, I dont know if this is the right place to ask, but I created 2 wikis that I think should be closed down for various reasons. Is this the right place or do I need to poke someone else? --Lcawte 17:04, September 11, 2009 (UTC)
 * Lcawte Skinapedia Wiki - Was made for testing and creating skins - my own sort of Sandbox for skinmaking.
 * Yohoho Puzzle Pirates - a duplicate of Puzzle Pirates wiki I made a while back when waiting for an adoption request to come through. If you do shut down this one, I would prefer it to wait a while so I can copy the templates to a wiki that they would be helpful on. I have a plan to use some of the templates across various wiki's.

Stargate Wiki
Hi! Could you please tell me what is the default skin in this Wiki? Somebody says it's Monaco, somebody monobook. The "admin options" for the skin don't have monobook, but we meant to set monobook as default skin. May you help us? Many thanks! --Ophycloedius (Talk) 15:43, September 6, 2009 (UTC)
 * I'm sorry, we dont offer Monobook as a default skin any longer --Uberfuzzy 20:15, September 11, 2009 (UTC)

I was wondering if...
...there's another way of writing a feature similar to Wikianswers' that generates recently unanswered questions. Angela said Wikianswers uses the MediaWiki API to do so, but I don't wanna load my computer too much. Maybe by adding something to the common.js? 'Cause I'm trying to incorporate a similar feature into The Gran Turismo Wiki, but I don't know how.-- Gp 75 motorsports REV LIMITER GT-PT/GT-EN/CSW 17:33, September 9, 2009 (UTC)

List all pages in a given category AND with given un/answered status
 * list=categoriesonanswers *

This module requires read rights. Parameters: coatitle      - Which category to enumerate (required). coaanswered   - What questions are needed - answered or un-answered? One value: no, yes Default: no coalimit       - The maximum number of pages to return. No more than 500 (5000 for bots) allowed. Default: 10 Examples: Get most recent 10 unanswered questions in : http://answers.wikia.com/api.php?action=query&list=categoriesonanswers&coatitle=Muppet%20Wiki

http://answers.wikia.com/api.php?action=query&list=categoriesonanswers&coatitle=Muppet%20Wiki

Its a special API module written for the Answers-base sites, so it only exists there.

You could always embed the Wikianswers widget on a page like

--Uberfuzzy 17:49, September 9, 2009 (UTC)
 * So there's no way to make a similar API for normal MW? -- Gp 75 motorsports REV LIMITER GT-PT/GT-EN/CSW 19:53, September 9, 2009 (UTC)


 * Well, yes and no. Outside of answers.wikia, theres no concept of questions, or answered, or unanswered. actually, even inside of wikianswers, its just which category its in, with some magic voodoo to detect when people are answering and change the category. theres a categorymembers api section, that can get you a list of pages if something is in a category names "answered questions" or 'un-answered questions', which is basiclly what the coa stuff does, just wrapped together, and some caching and some other checks that we specifically needed to happen (formatting type things). --Uberfuzzy 19:59, September 9, 2009 (UTC)
 * So, basically, I'd have to convert my wiki to an Answers layout. But could it be trained to look for "Recently Searched" instead of "Recently Asked"? -- Gp 75 motorsports REV LIMITER GT-PT/GT-EN/CSW 20:44, September 9, 2009 (UTC)


 * Huh? Wikiansers works by turning people's questions into pages, in the unanswered category. Then once someone edit it in non-trivial way, it changes it to th answered categegory. all other aspects of wikipags, and categories apply there. none of it ever goes through the search functions.


 * Lets take a couple steps back here... what are you wanting to do, not what you are asking how to setup? --Uberfuzzy 23:28, September 9, 2009 (UTC)
 * I'm trying to boost article count by helping contributors know what pages to create. If someone searches for it and we don't have it, we know what pages our users want. -- Gp 75 motorsports REV LIMITER GT-PT/GT-EN/CSW 16:49, September 10, 2009 (UTC)

Ah. Ok. Yeah, not possible. The search system doesnt record things like that (ok, so maybe some clicktracking, and maybe internal search index database stuff), it doesnt create pages, or record what they are searching for. Put up a suggestion page, and put a note in your sitenotice "Cant find what you are looking for? Leave a note [here], and we'll try to get it for you". --Uberfuzzy 18:18, September 10, 2009 (UTC)


 * Yeah, that also sounds reasonable. I'll do that, thanks for the suggestion. :) -- Gp 75 motorsports REV LIMITER GT-PT/GT-EN/CSW 20:33, September 10, 2009 (UTC)

Admin
Some guy named PacBoyCraZ is claiming that he's an admin over all of Wikia. I think it's not true, but could you check anyways? Darkman 4 20:16, September 10, 2009 (UTC)

I need help fast
This user called Everyayjoe45 is threatening to delete my Wikia my Wikia is http://thelegendofzelda2.wikia.com he posted a threatening comment on my talk page I don't know what to do. Here is where the comment is http://thelegendofzelda2.wikia.com/wiki/User_talk:Ironknuckle1 please help me. Sincerely, --Ironknuckle1 23:50, September 10, 2009 (UTC)

Spirou Wiki
What's up? I want to start working on another wiki, Spirou Wiki. It has no activity and I have a lot of stuff to add, reorganize, edit, delete, etc. The current admin is also inactive, same for the few users. Could you appoint me bureaucrat? You know me and how I work, so I guess you wouldn't see any objection. I'd also like to have "Spirou Wiki" renamed to "Spiroupédia". As usual, thanks for your time! Klow 09:45, September 12, 2009 (UTC)
 * Link no worky, cant find wiki.
 * Adoption requests - for the rights
 * Special:Contact - for the name change
 * My bad, it's in French so I forgot to add the "fr". Anyway I cannot find where to add it, so here's a normal link. I'll make the adoption request, but can you change the name? Most of the time when I use the standard Wikia Contact, you are the one answering, so... ;-) Klow 17:57, September 13, 2009 (UTC)

Call of Duty wiki
You may not be the right person to talk to about this.

Hi Uberfuzzy. Well, I have been blocked forever on the CoD wiki. After being there for 9 months and having over 1800 edits, this is my reward. I, apparently got "pissy" with an admin on the RFA page by telling him to not mention my previous 1-week block.

The original block length was 2 weeks. Then, another admin intervened and blocked me indefinitely. this admin had nothing to do with the incident. After he blocked me, he and the other admin (I prefer not to use names here, but if you want names I can tell you) had a little laugh about it on each other's talk pages which I did not find too funny. They were also egging me on to have one of my "meltdowns".

I feel I have been a victim here. As I said before, you might not be the right person to contact. I would greatly appreciate it if you got involved. If you think the block was reasonable, then tell me.

Please post feedback here

Please leave any feedback on the link above. Thank you very much. --CallofDuty4 18:33, September 12, 2009 (UTC)
 * Good cool on calling the Wiki team. I have had a quick look, some of the language used in the block reason should not be there... Things need to cool there, dont get into a full attack (Wikia isnt CoD :P) Cant wait to see the outcome here. Its up to Wikia now. 18:48, September 12, 2009 (UTC)

Thanks man. I hope we sort this out. --CallofDuty4 19:55, September 12, 2009 (UTC)

Oh, and Uberfuzzy, one more thing. I really loved editing there. Now since I can't edit, I'm quite stuck with what to do on the internet =/ --CallofDuty4 19:57, September 12, 2009 (UTC)


 * Wikia Staff members will not get involved with local drama and respect local administrator's decisions (at least in cases where it isn't just one rogue admin vs community). You should be speaking to the other CoD Wiki admins and not to Wikia Staff. ~Joey~   ^Talk^  21:01, September 12, 2009 (UTC)

I've been trying to do that, but no one bothers to listen. So I don't know where else to go. I've spoke to Chiafriend, and he said he would do something, but he hasn't (yet, at least). I really don't know why I am banned indefinitely. I know I have done wrong so a temporary block of a month or two should suffice. I don't know why Darkman blocked me forever, I think he just doesn't like me. --CallofDuty4 07:15, September 13, 2009 (UTC)

Updates to MediaWiki software?
Hi there!

I was wondering if there were any recent edits to the MediaWiki software that only affected some wikis and not others. I'm an admin at both the Cyber Nations Wiki and the Aerican Empire Wiki, both of which use an AJAX auto-refresher for Special:RecentChanges and related pages. About four hours ago, the AJAX auto-refresh function suddenly disappeared from both wikis. The same code is used on Wookieepedia, and the AJAX auto-refresher still works fine there. I can't seem to determine the problem.

For reference, the AJAX code on the Cyber Nations Wiki is viewable at w:c:cybernations:MediaWiki:Common.js (it starts at the section entitled "AJAX Auto-refresher"). It should make an AJAX auto-refresher option appear, and if checked, run, on pages such as w:c:cybernations:Special:RecentChanges. On Wookieepedia, it still works: w:c:starwars:Special:RecentChanges. Please help if you ave any knowledge of why this would have occurred so suddenly, and if you have any idea what could be done to solve the problem. ~ Michael von Preußen (voicemail)
 * Sorry, I know nothing about the ajax auto refresher. try to contact the person(s) who wrote or, or try checking Forum:Help desk to see if anyone else that uses it is having issues. We have had some dis-jointed reports of some javascript randomly not loading, but then magiclly start working again, so i'm betting its some server cache problem. --Uberfuzzy 13:39, September 15, 2009 (UTC)
 * Yes, I contacted them and they don't know what's wrong either. Thank you for your help, hopefully it will magically correct itself. ~ Michael von Preußen (voicemail)

Global.js
Hey, Uber. Remember a few months ago when you helped me set up my global.js so that I could use different fast delete buttons depending on which wiki I was currently editing at? For some reason that part of the code,, isn't registering anymore as of earlier today, though I just noticed now. I attempted to fool around with it to see if I could get it to work again, but no dice. Any ideas? Greyman  Talk 00:50, September 15, 2009 (UTC)
 * If you see my message above, I think they may be related. For some reason certain JS functions don't seem to be working anymore on some wikis.  Perhaps it's a related problem? ~ Michael von Preußen (voicemail)

sitename wrong
the on w:c:busgamer is wrong, still showing 'Anime and manga wiki', and not 'Bus Gamer Wiki', can i ask for staff help to correct it? I hv amended mediawiki:mainpage, thanks & sorry to bother you Gin-san (Talk) 11:57, September 15, 2009 (UTC)
