kulinarna wiki
Hi! Is there way to make this wiki adopted after no activity by me? Korwin 19:24, 30 September 2006 (UTC)


 * Yes, looks like the founder has never edited there, so you can have a go at getting in going. I've given you rights there.  Good luck! -- sannse (talk) 17:44, 1 October 2006 (UTC)

Template already done
Dear Sannse, The visit/lang2 template already done. Take a look here: template:Visit/xx. If it was wrong or just anything that is not correct, please write in my talk page on Karl May Wiki. Sincerely, --Agus elex 2005 10:29, 1 October 2006 (UTC)


 * That's great! Many thanks Agus -- sannse (talk) 17:45, 1 October 2006 (UTC)

Strange thing happened, please see
Sannse, I already made the infobox template and already copied it to starter wiki, but strange thing happened. Please compare this two pages:

The talk page of w:c:id.karlmay:Templat:Infobox and the talk page of w:c:starter:Template:Infobox.

I don't know why this could happen. Maybe you know or could ask someone who knows. I already ask GreeenReaper and szoferka, they didn't know why. I want to ask splarka but he's not around. Please keep me informed.

Thank you, --Agus elex 2005 15:15, 1 October 2006 (UTC)


 * Hi Agus, looks like I may be seeing something different from you? To me they look exactly the same.  What do you see? -- sannse (talk) 17:52, 1 October 2006 (UTC)


 * OH, I was looking at the wrong page... sorry, will look further -- sannse (talk) 17:53, 1 October 2006 (UTC)


 * I think that may be one for the technical team, I can't see any reason for it on the editing side. I'll try and catch Jason next time he's on-line.  Thanks for the work! -- sannse (talk) 17:57, 1 October 2006 (UTC)


 * There was a line return after the pipe in Template:Pipe, --Splarka (talk) 03:35, 2 October 2006 (UTC)

Wiki
I requested a new wiki from my wiki:. So what will happen to it. How will it happen?--Darth Sauron. Main page. Link establishing. Don't worry this line is clear.  19:27, 1 October 2006 (UTC)


 * It takes a few days for me to get to new requests, I research and review them and then email you about it. Hopefully it shouldn't be more than a couple of days until you hear more -- sannse (talk) 07:45, 2 October 2006 (UTC)

Bronze Star
Wow a bronze star! I certainly don't expect to receive this as my contributions are just too view to mention, hehehe. It's great! Thanks so much sannse. Now, that's something to be proud of. --Agus elex 2005 01:16, 2 October 2006 (UTC)


 * :) Enjoy... and as you are doing another volunteer task... there will be another on the way soon -- sannse (talk) 07:45, 2 October 2006 (UTC)

Two Questions
I have two questions for you. The first one is about admins on SW Fanon. Now that the community had buckled down and stopped troll feeding, there are a few overdue admins such as myself, Jasca Ducato, Aiddat, and I believe Ewoksfist. A few users, I'm sure, would like it with more than one admin. Secondly, some of us are curious about the sudden disppearence of our founded. If you could enlighten us about his disappearence, that would be nice but you don't have too. Thanks :) MaulYoda


 * I will look again at admins, and discuss it with Angela and others as soon as I can (got a lot on at the moment, and it involves doing some checks). I don't know why the founder left, it's not uncommon for people to lose interest or get too busy in real life after requesting a wiki.  People move on and find other things to do :) -- sannse (talk) 06:24, 5 October 2006 (UTC)

Thank you very much. You don't need to appoint all of us if you decide to but at least appoint Aiddat (and me for suggesting it if you want). MaulYoda

SWFANON VANDAL
Hi sansse, could you please ban Jeremiah Ebenezer Boodle from SWFANON, he is impersonating me, as i am still banned i cant sign in, but if you check my user page User:JheremEboodle, you will see i have the credentials for the real account and he is a vandal trying to cinvince people that he is the original boodle. regards jeremy


 * looking -- sannse (talk) 08:12, 6 October 2006 (UTC)

SWfanon
Hi Sannse, if you don't mind. Could you take a look at '''Jasca Ducato Sith Council (Sith campaign) 08:23, 6 October 2006 (UTC)

Bot Request
We haven't voted on whether or not we should have bots but my brother, user:Nihilusdude, would like to volunteer his account to become one. He wants to know how to set that up. MaulYoda


 * I'm afraid the first requirement for a bot flag is knowing how to set up for one :) and it's not done on a user account like this anyway. So the answer is definitely no for this one -- sannse (talk) 19:42, 6 October 2006 (UTC)

Volunteer portal changes
Hi,

On the Volunteer portal you added a task for making some changes to the volunteer portal by using templates.

I've had a go at this (although not on the actual volunteer portal)!

It uses a number of major templates, plus a whole heap of minor ones for each task which store information about that task, and allows easy automation and control over displaying both the information boxes on the portal page and on the details pages.

I've made the following templates which it currently uses (if it is adopted, you'd probably want to move some of them):
 * Template:Volunteer task - used to display the info box about each task
 * Template:Volunteer/New - the template which each new task page is copied off
 * Template:Volunteer details - a template for the details page which allows you to customise the appearance of every details page

I have the test setup of this all running at User:Markdarb/Sandbox, where you can see a sample task I've made to test it out, and you can test out the system for yourself. The steps are as follows:
 * Use the form to create the main page for the task
 * On that page, enter the exact name of the task (which you've already entered when you made the page) as the parameter of the template that's called
 * Follow all the links on that page to enter each appropriate piece of information.
 * Add the information box for the task on the volunteer portal, or sandbox or whatever, with
 * If you want to change any piece of information, it can be changed once to automatically update wherever it's displayed

I hope it's the sort of thing you're after, and I hope my instructions were clear enough! I believe that it's got the required structure, although you'll probably agree that the layout of the templates needs to be improved. The advantage is it's very easy to make layout/design changes, and it's also easy to choose what information is displayed where and even introduce more information templates if necessary.

Please reply on User_talk:Markdarb

Thanks, Markdarb 10:30, 9 October 2006 (UTC)


 * Hi, thanks for all the work! It's good, but I think it's too complicated for what I'm looking for.  I think it should be possible to use the current page style, but have a section of the subpages showing on the main page to show who has claimed that task.  Maybe with except for the small section?  I think having so many pages for each task will be a bit over the top, although I do like the simplicity of each section.  Thanks again -- sannse (talk) 11:24, 9 October 2006 (UTC)
 * I understand what you mean about being too complicated, but on the other hand I personally believe it automates the use of the templates quite well, and it can certainly be improved upon. Do you think the system I've set up could be simplified in any way to suit the task better? If not, which of the following do you think is most ideal?
 * Putting the noinclude around everything except the list of volunteers, so that only the list of volunteers is shown when the template is called from the main volunteer page, and that all the other information has to be added manually, as it currently is.
 * Having a generic table or section on each subpage which displays all the basic information as you want it to display on the volunteer portal, so that you can just call the template for that task on the volunteer portal and not have to manually add the information.
 * Something else!
 * I hope I haven't just given you a bit of bother instead of the solution you were looking for! Markdarb 04:51, 10 October 2006 (UTC)


 * It's great to have another mind on this! I was sort of thinking of the first, but perhaps some other solution would be good.  I like the formatting on the main portal page, and don't think we should have too many sub-pages, but it would be good to get the required information on the portal page as smoothly as possible.  At the moment I can't really see how to do that for the best. -- sannse (talk) 18:50, 10 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Yes, the volunteer portal's design is good, as are the subpages, so the actual designs definitely don't need changing (well, maybe a bit on the subpage for each task, but only to make it work with the template system)! I personally think perhaps the best idea would be the second one I listed. It could be put inside a table to distinguish it from the rest of the page, but then the table coding could be noincluded so that it just imports the text when you use the template on the volunteer portal. I'll do that this afternoon/evening (New Zealand time, that is, as that's where I live) in my Sandbox to show you just what I mean and see what you think of it. Markdarb 21:21, 10 October 2006 (UTC)


 * Cool! thanks Markdarb -- sannse (talk) 07:31, 11 October 2006 (UTC)

"Egyptolopedia"
I accept all the things that you suggest in your mail. I agree with you about capitalising to "Egyptolopedia". Tell me if there's anything else I should concern before starting a wiki. And how can I choose the logo? --Hathor 17:09, 10 October 2006 (UTC)


 * Hi Hathor, that all sounds great. I will make this first thing in the morning. -- sannse (talk) 18:50, 10 October 2006 (UTC)

Help!
From Asturpedia, there aren´t admins, and, i´m one of two unic active users, can u make me admin?Here the URL.>>>> 19:50, 13 October 2006 (UTC)


 * Hi, I see you've asked Zuirdj about this too - he's the best person to help :) -- sannse (talk) 20:09, 13 October 2006 (UTC)

Thank You From SW Fanon
Thanks for appointing new admins on SW Fanon. I'm kinda disappointed I wasn't one of them but that's all about being a community. I'm sure I wasn't the only one anyway. MaulYoda

Speaking of which, is there any chance you will appoint more in the future? MaulYoda


 * Possibly, but I wouldn't expect that to be for quite some time -- sannse (talk) 07:07, 16 October 2006 (UTC)

About my wiki
Hi! I would like to know whod has happened to my Egyptolopedia? --Hathor 15:03, 16 October 2006 (UTC)


 * Hi Hathor, there seems to be a problem with new wikis at the moment. Jason is looking at it right now, and hopefully all will be back to normal very soon. Sorry about this -- sannse (talk) 19:11, 16 October 2006 (UTC)

tradycja
Please in Tradycja Wiki create new Name space: "Portal" and his talk: "Dyskusja portalu". --Michalwadas 19:45, 16 October 2006 (UTC)


 * Hi Michalwadas. It's normal for the namespace and the talk to match: "Portal" and "Dyskusja portal" or "Portalu" and "Dyskusja portalu".  Are you sure about the names you have asked for?  Please also check the list at Help:Custom namespaces to be sure you are ready for the namespace to be added.  Thanks -- sannse (talk) 05:59, 17 October 2006 (UTC)
 * "Portal" and "Dyskusja portal" --Michalwadas 07:23, 17 October 2006 (UTC)
 * OK, Angela has set them up now. -- sannse (talk) 07:35, 17 October 2006 (UTC)
 * And had to remove them, because there was pages in that namespace. Please see the link above and make sure that all pages are moved out of the namespace, and the redirects deleted.  Thank you. -- sannse (talk) 07:44, 17 October 2006 (UTC)
 * szoferka sorted this - so it's done again -- sannse (talk) 07:53, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

Sysop Request for Christian Wiki
Hey, Sannse, I'm here to request sysop status for the Christian Wiki. The site is desperately low on admins, and I think I could be a big help. My Wikipedia userpage is here, if you want to see more about me. I'd also like to request sysop status forChristWiki, since they're very short on admins as well, and they currently have no active RfA. -- Justin M. / Talk 16:28, 19 October 2006 (UTC)

Hi Justin, there isn't a formal RfA, but there is a portal page where you can ask, and the community can decide who should be admins. I've just promoted a bureaucrat there (and an overdue admin) so he will be able to make any rights changes needed there. Good luck! -- sannse (talk) 16:49, 19 October 2006 (UTC)


 * Reply Thanks, Sannse! Now that I think about it, you probably couldn't help me with the second Wiki (ChristWiki), as it's on a different server than Wikia.  Thanks again! -- Justin M. / Talk 17:03, 19 October 2006 (UTC)


 * Sorry, I missed that part of the request - yes, that one is off-Wikia -- sannse (talk) 17:30, 19 October 2006 (UTC)

New Wikia
Hello Sansee I am Duke Hamper I sent you a request form for a wiki called Dukepedia a few days ago. What do you think about it? Duke Hamper 17:53, 28 October 2006 (UTC)


 * Hi, I've got the request, it takes a few days to process requests and we have a bit of an extra backlog at the moment because we couldn't make them for a while (a technical problem). You request is just unter three days old, so it should be procesed withing the next few days.  Sorry for the delay -- sannse (talk) 22:44, 29 October 2006 (UTC)

Strip Wiki Logo
Hello sannse, How about this logo: http://strip.wikia.com/wiki/Image:Wiki2.png ?

--Agus elex 2005 20:25, 28 October 2006 (UTC)


 * Looks good. I've added it to the forum for people to see both and comment on. -- sannse (talk) 08:02, 29 October 2006 (UTC)

Dofus wiki bureaucrat needed
Over at the Dofus Wiki, we are in the unfortunate position that our last active bureaucrat has gone away (see Dofus:Administrators), leaving our three sysops with no power to promote further sysops. I see that you upgraded Dashiva a while ago in the same situation (from the rights log). Could you upgrade DarkStorm and TaviRider to bureaucrat status please. Thanks //Peet talk 12:15, 30 October 2006 (UTC)


 * Hi, has there been any community discussion about this? I can't see any at the moment -- sannse (talk) 12:22, 30 October 2006 (UTC)


 * User Cizagna has been nominated for promotion here, and the discussion is here. Thanks. //Peet talk 12:27, 30 October 2006 (UTC)


 * Thanks, I've left a message there -- sannse (talk) 12:35, 30 October 2006 (UTC)

Re: Civ4
civilization.wikia is an inactive Wikia with a long address. Perhaps you (or other admin) can delete that wiki and install a new one with me as sysop? Plus, it seems that civilization.wikia is a general Civilization series wiki while civ4.wikia will be about the Civilization IV Civilopedia, a Civilization IV feature. IG 10:38, 31 October 2006 (UTC)


 * Hi, I think that one aspect of one game is far too narrow a topic for a Wikia wiki, but it would be great as a section on the wider wiki. The Civilization Wikia is inactive, but this could be just the content to kick start it!  If you need admin rights there, I can give those to you.  It's is possible to change the URL for something shorter, but I don't think the current one is too bad and would rather not have to ask for it to be changed unless it's vital.  If it is changed, it would have to be to something that fitted all aspects of the Civilization games though.  -- sannse (talk) 19:55, 1 November 2006 (UTC)

I remove that link. Thank you! ^___^--KJ_(talk) 16:19, 4 November 2006 (UTC)
