Page protection
Hello, sorry to bother you again. I just wanted to know if pages can be protected against creation? I am not an administrator on Wikipedia, but from what I can figure, there must be a protect tab at the top when coming to a non-existent page on Wikipedia, just like any other page. But I see no protect tab when coming to non-existent pages on Deckipedia, does this mean that the protection [create=sysop] is not enabled on Wikia? Thanks for your help.

 * I figured that out. Thanks. But is the protection like I mentioned not enabled on wikia? DragonBallZ 03:06, 13 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Thats good, do you know how far in the future? Also, could you tell me how Wookiepedia got there bot user group renamed to droid? I like to know technical stuff like this. I hope you do not mind me asking these questions. DragonBallZ 03:32, 13 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Ok, thanks much. Cheers. DragonBallZ 04:32, 13 February 2008 (UTC)

Question about a WikiCity I created
Dear Angela:

I've learnt that all the wikicities were turned into Wikias, and that the person that creates a Wikia now is by default the admin or sysop or something. Does that apply to me and the Animal Crossing Wikia? Also, there is another Animal Crossing Wikia out, spec. for the DS version, but it only has 9 articles. Should they be merged?

Reply whenever possible.

Merging the 2 wikis
Dera Angela:

I think it would make alot of sense because...

1. The AC Wikia was made first. 2. The AC Wikia is, and always was, intended for all games in the Animal Crossing series. 3. The other Wikia only has 9 articles. 4. People may go to that Wikia looking for content that would be on ours.

gijoe wikia
I know a user on Joepedia that would like administrator access, do you think you can help. The only bureaucrat seems to be inactive. DragonBallZ 09:19, 13 February 2008 (EST)

Request for permissions on Half-Life wiki
Hello Angela. I'm hoping that you can grant me additional permissions on the Half-Life wiki.

Quite frankly, the administration staff (all two of them) is completely dead; one admin hasn't edited since December 6, 2007, while the local 'crat hasn't done anything since January 1, 2008. The site itself isn't dead, so it can't quite be up for adoption, but there's certainly nobody in charge around there...

What I'd like is to be granted both adminship and bureaucrat permissions; the former so I can start protecting some critical pages (for example, the is disturbingly unprotected), the later so I can help further foster the community by promoting additional administrators from the active users. I've contacted the local 'crat about adminship, but haven't heard back from him. Because of his inactivity, I'd like to just out-right replace him as local bureaucrat, as I don't have much faith in him coming back, not to mention that I don't want to be the sole active admin forever. :)

Brief history about me, I suppose... I currently hold adminship on 4 WMF projects: the English Wikipedia (my home project: 24k+ edits, admin for over a year and 3 months), Meta, Commons, and Wikispecies. You can see my complete wiki-matrix at m:User:EVula/matrix. I'm no wiki-newbie, and I'd like to do what I can to get this project back up and running.

Thanks in advance. EVula // talk // 02:05, 14 February 2008 (EST)

Forumadmin
Could you tell me what the forumadmin user group is? Also, here. Thanks. DragonBallZ 03:08, 15 February 2008 (UTC)


 * forumadmin is related to the phpBB forums which some wikis have, but it has a few bugs so isn't being rolled out to all wikis yet. Angela (talk) 03:46, 15 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Thanks for your help on both things! Cheers. DragonBallZ 14:32, 15 February 2008 (UTC)

Admin of StargatePedia
Why is User:SGCommand no longer an admin on the wiki? How can I keep my status?--SGCommand 19:59, 15 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Yes, I do want to keep being an admin. I also have to admit though that my contribution may be rather limited as I am saving for a holiday.--SGCommand 11:47, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

Manga wiki
Could you make me a bureaucrat on http://en.manga.wikia.com/? Myself and Dantman are going to make it a part of Wikia ACG, and I need to be able to give him the access he needs. Thanks for your help. Cheers. DragonBallZ 02:27, 18 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Please see the email sannse sent you about this already. Angela (talk) 20:47, 18 February 2008 (UTC)
