Hello! I've found what appears to be a bug, and it's been bothering me for some time.

Over on (MySims Wiki) we use "smilies", images saved as templates we use in day-to-day conversation on talk pages/blogs. Almost all smilies, when used, are not recorded in Wiki Activity as having been an image that was added. (Thankfully!)

Unfortunately I've been creating new templates there that ARE credited, in Wiki Activity, as having images added. I'll attach a few screenshots to aid my explanation, but to put it simply, whenever I (and I alone, it seems) add an image file to a template, that file is shown to be added in Wiki Activity every time the template is used.

I made a blog testing this, and indeed, only the files from templates I've created recently (the past year, perhaps even last six months) show up in Wiki Activity. This bothers the entire community, preventing me from using them. How do I prevent these files from appearing in Wiki Activity?



One of the users there had a theory that it simply takes a period of time before Wikia realizes an image is commonly used, and decides not to show it. Is this true?

I'm also attempting to give links to my two templates shown. http://mysims.wikia.com/wiki/Template%3ALittlemac http://mysims.wikia.com/wiki/Template%3AJonsweat
