Can't manage to open a Hebrew wiki in Wikia
I have had two very good ideas for potential Hebrew wikis which I am sure would be very sucessfull amongst the hebrew speaking users on the web. Unfortunatly, I havn't been able to figure out how to open a Hebrew Interface Wiki in which the text would show from right-to-left so far... at one point I even thought that it was impossible and that all the Hebrew wikis on Wikia didn't have a Hebrew right-to-left interface and in the best scenarios you could only add a div dir="RTL".. but just now I found out that one of the most popular Hebrew wikis on the web (eincyclopedia.wikia.com) is hosted in wikia so I know for sure that it got to be possible.. any ideas on how I could do this (please try to be as specific as you can)? --24.12.234.123 05:22, 4 December 2007 (UTC)


 * All the Hebrew wikis should be displaying right to left text. Are you seeing any of the interface in Hebrew? If you log in, you can check your preferences to make sure you have Hebrew in there and not another language. If that doesn't work, please let me know which wiki it isn't working on and which skin you have set in your preferences. You shouldn't need to add div dir="RTL" to make it work.

Requesting Sysop maker
Hey Angela, its me, Scottman again and I was wondering if I could be one of those users with the extreme power of creating Sysops (I am not sure what the privelage level is called sorry). And just to let you know, I am edditing on the Geology Wikiepdia. If I cannot become a sysop maker, then could you please tell me what i need to do to get to that level? Thank you so much.

 * That level is called "bureaucrat", IIRC.

Indonesian Transformers Wiki
I have talked to BorogX and as I have already suspected, he is not a vandal. He has reverted those articles back to the way it is before. -- [ ♠  A g u s   Talk &bull;  Guestbook  &bull;  FoodopediA ♠  ] 06:31, 6 December 2007 (UTC)

English Orchid wiki
I noticed there is no english orchid wikis? and since I contribute usually to this category on wikipedia I am interested in starting one. I am confident I can fill several pages with information and I am thinking of including hybrids so the wiki can be used by Orchid societies around the world. Any suggestions? --Cs california 10:22, 6 December 2007 (UTC) from Egamia

Pencilopedia
A while ago, you said if we had 20 users editing, we could have a wiki. We do, and Rieke has said it would be good (she supports it) and said she needed one more staff comments, so, could you be the second staff? King Semsem 15:45, 7 December 2007 (UTC)

Camp Half-Blood Wiki
Hello. I was recently doing a Yahoo search on a favorite book series of mine, and stumbled across the Percy Jackson Wiki, Camp Half-Blood. Although it could potentially be a large Wiki, when I arrived it only had three articles. I immediately began making articles, but as the admin and only member there was inactive, it was a bit hard. So, if you are still reading this after all of my ramblings, I am requesting adminship of this Wiki. The link is as follows:

Admin Relations Issues on Warriors Wiki
You've heard from me before about problems with Eulalia459678 on Warriors Wiki. Once again, they're causing trouble. Relations between us have never been good, but they've become more and more strained as a result of Eu's own immature behavior. I'll link examples of the behavior of Eu's that has caused this to reach issue porportions, starting with the most recent and going backwards, excluding the previously reported here instances of telling people they couldn't edit things.


 * Talk Page Attack against me (in response to this thread on the Warriors Wiki Forum.
 * This Forum post documents yet another attack on me by Eu, that continued despite me apologizing.
 * Yet another attack against me. (My replies on Eu's Talk Page)

As you can see, I have been enduring repeated attacks by Eu for some time now. There have also been altercations through private messenger systems, including them harassing me to the point where I have had to resort to putting myself on invisible pretty much all the time. They have had no respect for my away messages and sending me 10+ messages over the course of a half hour despite away messages being up declaring me not at my computer.

I feel that Eu's consistent approach to dealings with me constitutes a violation of Terms of Service. Eu have no conducted themselves in accordance with Wikia policy, least of all of a person entrusted with Administration Rights and expected to act at the head of a Wikia.

Unsysop request
Hello. I'm the bureaucrat at http://dozory.wikia.com

I ask you to unsysop the user Lunatico. The reason is totally inactivity in project. I suppose,that he leave wikia. Thanks.Flamevox 10:45, 10 December 2007 (UTC)

RE: Problems
The real issue is that I have attempted to close communication channels. After they realized that I was acctually on my messengers, on invisible, they started IMing me there again. I acctually had to explain to them that being on invisible meant that I wanted my privacy and they should respect it.

The most recent attack against me is an example of them acting aggressively when I have tried to end that particular communication.

One of the biggest issues with Eu is that they're the only other System Operator on Warriors Wiki. I'm rather literally forced to interact with them, even if I have no desire to do so. Hobbes15 has done an excellent job of... well... staying neutral and out of things, but with Eu and I being the people who're suposed to be responsible for running the Wiki, there's not a way we can't interact. If we're on different pages then things like their misguided attempt to have scripts enabled becuase they wanted to use this so they could find out something completely worthless like how many page views we get a day.

In fact... Until I asked (well.. Told) them to halt the addition of that script working and open the discussion to the community so that all Wiki members could decide as a whole if they wanted the security holes open, our relations had been fairly decent. Eu seems to almost lash out like a wounded snake following situations like that. As much as I've tried to limit my communications with them, should I be, in essence, forbidden from using the forums on a site that I spend a good deal of time working on daily simply because my fellow Sysop plays a game of oneupmanship and can't handle the idea of a real discussion where someone might disagree and not intend that information in a malicious manner? Where I'll be the grownup and drop out of conversations and ignore direct attacks against myself only to have them wait a week then accuse me of not having a comeback.

This is not just a case of me looking for mediation. This is a case of me looking to solve a long term problem that I have spent ages trying to deal with on the wiki itself, using more traditional means (IE: ignore the behavior, and limit contact as much as possible with the user). Eu, who favors a system of government akin to dictatorship, isn't helping to run Warriors Wiki with the community in mind, but instead simply caring about what they want.

And if what they want includes attacks against other users... It's not like this is a fluke, or a one time thing. This behavior or Eu's has been ongoing. I mean... Right now I can't do anything more than attempt to work things out with Eu myself, who seems to think they've been behaving appropriately.

I've attempted less aggressive means for dealing with Eu's current impunity from punishment on Warriors Wiki... Aside from Dissuade Interaction, is there really no other action that is to be taken? TOS Violation on the part of a Sysop seems like it should come to more than that. I'm being harassed my a person I acctually need to work with to run the WWiki...

How would I go about changing the navigation bar on the left hand side of the page? I can't figure it out. King Semsem 18:31, 10 December 2007 (UTC)

Music wiki
Hi, Yes there doesn't seem to be much active on it, but it looks like there was a lot in the past

Would I be able to put it up for adoption, in the future, if there are no replies on the main page talk page/lack of activity? And how would i go about doing this?

Thank you

GuildWiki stats request
One of our admins was wondering if we can have data on the number of edits made by all contributors (with a minimum threshold to include contributors with at least, say, 100 edits). Maybe one list for the main space stats only, and one across all namespaces. Additionally, I would be interested in seeing the other data typically available from wikistats.wikia.com for GuildWiki. Thanks. -PanSola 04:39, 12 December 2007 (UTC)

Alaska Wikia
Hello, I have seen the Wiki "Alaska" which requires adoption as it has not been edited for months. So I have started work on it and have done lots of edits improving it and I am spending most of my time on it (I might be editing it just as you read this!) and have improved it alot, however without Adminship on it I cannot improve it to the extent I want to. So could you kindly grant me adminship on that Wiki? Thanks!--Kushan I.A.K.J 11:43, 12 December 2007 (UTC)

And also on adminship on the Ufology Wiki, please? Thanks!--Kushan I.A.K.J 12:36, 12 December 2007 (UTC)

Ok, now you may think I am gone crazy, but I know what I am doing (since I love Wikis, or any info, about countries and also msyteries like UFOs), so could you please very kindly grant me adminship on the Australia Wiki as well.
 * P.S: I have the excact links to them(the adminship requested Wikis) on my Central Wiki userpage. Thanks VERY much!!!!!--Kushan I.A.K.J 14:56, 12 December 2007 (UTC)

Note: The user, Kushan_I.A.K.J, made a few minor edits to the Alaska wiki yesterday - one of which I would dispute as grossly inaccurate (providing a single pair of geographic coordinates for the entire state). I don't know what this user's interest in the Alaska wiki is. True, it hasn't been edited for a while due to lack of any community participation. But it hasn't been abandoned. New users are welcome, but this request for SYSOP status seems premature. --Doug 17:41, 12 December 2007 (UTC)

Can the new PHPBB forums be added to our Wikis?
I would prefer that over the straight Wiki forums. I asked at Forum:Can the wiki I admin have its own forum like the new Inside wiki has?, but no staff responded. The person that did respond wasn't sure and said to directly ask a staff member. I went to the IRC channel, but no staff member that I knew was online.

Request for Adminship
I have just come across Square Wiki and thought that it could be further improved. There are currently no active users here and the administrator has left the wiki for almost a month. I wish to do the improvements, I've done small changes but I wish to do more. Can you please promote me? My good record on finalfantasy.wikia.com may help you evaluate. Please reply on my talk page here. Thank you. Blue. 23:24, 12 December 2007 (UTC)

Not again...
Total Rune has been vandalising the RuneScape Wiki again. He keeps claiming crap like "If you delete my page, I'll report you for sysop-power abuse", when he is making personal attacks and the like on his page. I'm getting fed up with him; is it possible to mass block him from Wikia? He doesn't seem to care anymore. --Stinkowing 15:55, 13 December 2007 (UTC)
 * I'm not this Total Rune guy you say I am =\ . Wanna speak to me ingame? Add Minky Steve (based off of the ever popular Weebl's Stuff character). 70.49.207.133 16:14, 13 December 2007 (UTC)
 * My memory fails me, I just started playing RuneScape a few months ago, I'm a noob =) 70.49.207.133 16:16, 13 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Yes you are. I recognize your "Minky Steve" name; you've used THAT before. Tell me, how foolish do you feel right now? You most likely DON'T feel foolish right now, but you will when you're banned.--Stinkowing 16:17, 13 December 2007 (UTC)
 * No, I'm not. Minky Steve is a very popular name, what with the Parsley Boobs cartoon. Just because someones used it on a Wikia, doesn't mean they own the account on RuneScape. 70.49.207.133 16:35, 13 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Sadly, this continues. Everytime we get a vandal attack, and accuse Total of comitting it, he instantly pops up and says that "some guy, his brother" is contacting him saying we are trashing his name. The timing is always perfect.  Unfort.  I dont know what you can do to prevent it.  He uses a proxy ip and this has been going on for at least 6 months.  17:11, 13 December 2007 (UTC)
 * No, I do not use a proxy. My brother does. However, my IP changes sporadically. It is Bell Sympatico Lite and it changes on it's own every so often. I cannot control it, and not even unplugging the modem does anything.

I have told the RS Wiki time and time again I am done with it. As for this current vandal who has posted on Manticores page, I have no clue if it is a stranger or my brother. I can ask Nick for you if you want, but I'm not promising anything. Atlandy, you've always had it out for me because I'm better than you and you know it. 67.159.50.91 17:14, 13 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Also, this whole "instantly pops up" thing is untrue. Usually my brother will contact me and let me know, or I'll have an email from someone saying for example, "Dude these dudes are badmouthing you " and I'll have to come and take a look. Everytime I do, I'm immediately singled out and then it all starts over again. I took your advice and walked away Angela, and here they go again, pulling me into this just because a random user or my brother, I have no clue as of yet, vandalized. 67.159.50.90 17:16, 13 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Arguing with our wiki on Angela's page is fruitless. It is a shame that arguing on "who is vandalizing the wiki" has to be played out. You failed on the odessey wiki (vandalizing it) you vandalized our wiki numerous times, the type of vandalism, style, use of words, are all the same to previous times you have vandalized. I am sorry Angela that you need to be brought into all of this.  We will just have to be more vigilant in preventing all vandals, including Total's entire family tree, friends, co-workers, classmates, and everyone else who keeps him in the loop with Runescape vandalism.  Sorry once again for the immaturity brought on by some.   19:54, 13 December 2007 (UTC)

Petition for adminship
Angela, as you are one of the wikia staff listed on the Knitting Wiki user list, I thought I'd drop you a line to let you know I've recently found that wiki and was disheartened that it had fallen into non-use after so few articles. I am petitioning to become an administrator of that wiki, as the others seem to not be active, I have an interest in knitting, and experience as an administrator here at wikia (D20NPCs wiki). If you see fit, could you make me an administrator of that wiki, such that I can do more to beautify and update it? Thank you much! --MidnightLightning 17:29, 13 December 2007 (UTC)

Content deleting
I wonder if it is possible to delete all pages and images from Wiki at once. Might and Magic Wiki has a problem with users who add copied, copyrighted content - both articles and images - from other sites on this topic, without adding neither source information nor copyright status. That's the way I ask you to delete all articles and images from there. As I remember, some months ago similar situation occured at Wikimedia's French Wikisource. Could you do the same with Might and Magic Wiki? There are some users who'd like to work on re-established project. Anyway, thank you for interest. Michał 13:45, 16 December 2007 (UTC)

Oncyclopedia Neerlandica
Hello Angela. thank you for your kind offer to "adopt" Oncyclopedie. Speaking as moderator of that site: In the past we have already discussed this matter on our forum and we are perfectly happy with our present situation. We already have that thing "that all uncyclopedians love", the choose option thingy. If you are interested in our discussion at the moment, see: here. and if you want, i'll give you the link to our previous discussions on this matter.

Then I would like to ask you if it is normal policy to send offers like these by email to random users of wikis? I would think it more appropriate if offers like these were presented to the whole community, i.e. on the site itself.

Then speaking for myself personally: As you may know, i have worked for wikia on two wikis (which i helped create), and i feel i've been treated very badly by the wikia community, with staff supporting continuous disruptive actions by a certain Manticore + companions. I have decided not to edit for wikia-wikis anymore. Personally i am happy no great community with overlords (wikiastaff, janitors, admins from all kinds of wikis and wannabees) is interfering with the oncyclopedia community. we have a good thing going there, a growing community of writers and articles + projects and the idea of moving oncyclopedie to wikia will ruin my enthousiasm for the site for which i have made almost 9.000 edits in the last year. I do that unpaid and i do it for fun. If the fun goes out of it for any reason, i will stop doing it. D. G. Neree - User talk 16:55, 16 December 2007 (UTC)
