Language
Hi, in my computer, all the wikia's sptolights are in spanish, I don't know if you understand me. For example, the spotlights are from .es (es.mortalkombat.wikia.com or es.fringe.wikia.com) How can I change that so that the spotlights will be in english? Thanks for your help! -- Shadow Na'vi  Talk   My Workload  18:43, November 29, 2009 (UTC)
 * Spotlights are based on the language of the wiki. So I guess you mean es.american-idol.wikia.com? That will always show Spanish spotlights... after all, the readers are most likely to be Spanish speakers :) -- sannse (talk) 22:37, November 30, 2009 (UTC)


 * No, in my new wiki http://james-camerons-avatar.wikia.com the spotlights are in spanish and the wiki isn't an .es wiki. Is there a way to change that, it happens on every wiki, english and spanish. -- Shadow Na'vi  Talk   My Workload  22:56, November 30, 2009 (UTC)
 * Humm... I see English spotlights there. Maybe a cache thing? - sannse (talk) 00:36, December 1, 2009 (UTC)


 * Yeah, that's why it's weird. What is a cache? Is thre a way to fix that? I really don't want to see spanish wikis. -- Shadow Na'vi  Talk   My Workload  00:44, December 1, 2009 (UTC)
 * It's possible that your computer has stored the images, and is serving them whatever site you vist (although that seems strange in this case). You could try clearing your browser cache and cookies (look on Google to find how to do this) -- sannse (talk) 19:42, December 1, 2009 (UTC)

Avatar Wiki Copy
Hi sannse, user Rocerus Golden-Feather has copied information from my wiki, http://james-camerons-avatar.wikia.com and passed it to http://avatar-film.wikia.com. I think that the last wiki should be eliminated, because it is a copy. Thanks for your help. The design that is on the last wiki is my last design, that I changed recently. -- Shadow Na'vi  Talk   My Workload  02:24, December 2, 2009 (UTC)
 * Hi, all content on Wikia is under a free license, which means that copying is allowed... but... that's only if proper attribution is given. You need to ask the person who copied the content to add proper attribution to each page, or to delete it -- sannse (talk) 23:06, December 2, 2009 (UTC)
 * What? Some time ago, if you remember, I copied info from Fringepedia to Fringe Wiki and I was blocked and all the information was deleted. Why is this case different? -- Shadow Na'vi  Talk   My Workload  02:41, December 3, 2009 (UTC)
 * Wikia policy has changed over the years, and also, I am guessing that the ban was local, not Wikia-wide. Talk to the local admins about why it isn't happening anymore. Ajraddatz Talk 02:46, December 3, 2009 (UTC)
 * I'm the admin, and it happened just less than 9 months. He copied all the articles, even the old main page. -- Shadow Na'vi  Talk   My Workload  03:13, December 3, 2009 (UTC)
 * Fringepedia to FringeWiki was illegal because the licensing on the wikis were different. FringePedia was under cc-by-nc-nd a.k.a. non-commerical, no derivative works. They weren't part of Wikia, so had different licensing which made them uncompatable (Wikia is commercial). &mdash; Balistic 03:27, December 3, 2009 (UTC)
 * Still, I think that http://avatar-film.wikia.com/ should be closed and redirected to http://james-camerons-avatar.wikia.com as the latter is more popular and the former is just a copy. Even the Wikia Entertainment "What's Hot!" links to the latter. &mdash; Balistic 03:28, December 3, 2009 (UTC)

Well, if it's legal, then it's OK, I guess :) -- Shadow Na'vi  Talk   My Workload  12:25, December 3, 2009 (UTC)

Medium Wiki
Dear Sannse: PLEASE, PLEASE DON'T BE A AUTOMATED MESSAGE!:

I would like to become the Administrator of the "Medium Wiki", are you the person to ask for said position or do I do go elsewhere on Wikia? Please reply back ASAP! Lily Ford 05:07, December 3, 2009 (UTC)
 * If the wiki's admins are inactive, discuss who should get new rights, then who ever is getting them should go to Adoption requests and leave a link to the discussion. If the Wiki has an active B'crat ask them first. -- 16:06, December 3, 2009 (UTC)

Google Analytics
Hello. Is it possible to use Google Analytics on my wiki (Children's Books Wiki)? I have browsed through the forums, but I am confused as to whether it is available or not. Thanks, Bethel23 (talk) 08:40, December 6, 2009 (UTC)
 * Hi, I'm sorry, Google Analytics isn't available any more. We had problems with the codes working alongside our own tracking. Sorry -- sannse (talk) 00:14, December 8, 2009 (UTC)
 * Is there an alternative hit counter or some such that other people use on Wikia? Or can Wikia provide some statistics on number of people viewing the wiki? Bethel23 (talk) 16:29, December 8, 2009 (UTC)
 * I've heard of people using an image-based counter before, but haven't seen it done recently and don't know how well it works. Possibly you could ask on the forums about this. Wikia gives some stats at Special:WikiaStats, but that doesn't include page views I'm afraid. It's certainly something we hope to include some time in the future though -- sannse (talk) 00:01, December 10, 2009 (UTC)
 * Runescape Wiki has a nice use of Site Meter within the sidebar via js. You may want to try something like that. Joey (talk) 00:10, December 10, 2009 (UTC)
 * Okay, thanks. Bethel23 18:12, December 10, 2009 (UTC)

Unsafe site
I clicked onto this link which was a paid for advertisement about astronomy on Liberapedia. My Norton Anit-virus told me the site is unsafe and threatens my computer. I risked my computer just long enough to copy the URL and I suggest you check the site out. Proxima Centauri 16:23, December 10, 2009 (UTC)

I ran a full systems scan and nothing unusual has turned up. Proxima Centauri 17:17, December 10, 2009 (UTC)
 * Hi, thanks for letting us know, I'll pass this straight to our ads guy. It's generally best if you can report these via Special:Contact, with as much information as possible (and, if possible, a screenshot of the ad)... that helps us gather all the info we need. Thanks again -- sannse (talk) 23:24, December 10, 2009 (UTC)

I understand what you were talking to me about on the Gamecube Wiki, but may you please give me my admin and burecraut rights back so if there is a problem on my wiki I can fix it, thank you. --Sirnot 01:34, December 13, 2009 (UTC)

I undo vandalism
I see this vandalism, and I undo his changes. Are you can block this user? Andres  Qu'est-ce qui arrive 01:31, December 19, 2009 (UTC)
 * Well that would mean blocking you, wouldn't it. As that's your IP. Please don't play games like that, or I will have to block. -- sannse (talk) 01:59, December 19, 2009 (UTC)


 * No. I don't this changes. Maybe the IP, is shared or alterare. Previously, I was affected by a block of a other user. Andres   Qu'est-ce qui arrive 02:11, December 19, 2009 (UTC)

Problems
Hello Sannse, I'm Station7 and I have a few questions where you maybe me can help with. First of all I'm from The Netherlands, so if my english is too bad that you can't read it, please say it to me.


 * 1. On my Lost: The Journey The Conspiracy of Truth I have copied an infobox, but I need more information to have a good infobox. Here is the link to the infobox, maybe you can fix it. Here is the link: http://lostthejourneytheconspiracyoftruth.wikia.com/wiki/Template:Individual_infobox. This is an example that I have copied from a good friedn on the Harry Potter wiki, named Seth cooper and he said that I have to come with to the Wiki Staff.
 * 2. It says that there Template Rb in red, do I need that?
 * 3. I have a problem since I'm adminstrator there. Everything I do something with images, even if don't have them, there appears then one puzzle.
 * 4. Do I have to make an second accountant, so I can work better?

I thought that I had more questions, if so you will hear them.--Station7 12:16, December 19, 2009 (UTC)
 * I fixed it.- <font face="Century Gothic"> <font color="#FF4F00">5 əb<font color="#FF4F00">'7 aŋk (<font color="#FF4F00">7alk ) 13:39, December 19, 2009 (UTC)

IRC cloaks
Hi Sannse, do you mind checking the IRC cloak list and possibly doing mine. I've seen you on IRC before, you know it's me. Every time I go on IRC, you and 'Fuzzy are away.

Many thanks, 15:01, December 19, 2009 (UTC)
 * Hi. unfortunately I need to check your registration on IRC and freenode staff need to check you really want the cloak. It's annoying I know! What time are you usually there? I'm away a bit over the holiday, but maybe we can be around at the same time -- sannse (talk) 04:57, December 22, 2009 (UTC)
 * Well I can probably see you in the evenings [UTC] (mornings for you?), you can see by my timestamps. I'll do my best, but I'm going inactive for Christmas soon. 17:43, December 22, 2009 (UTC)

Death threat
Someone threatened to find me and kill me! I think the user should be banned from the whole of Wikia and the police in the relevant country informed. Proxima Centauri 16:51, December 20, 2009 (UTC)


 * By the looks of things, it looks like someone home on holiday from school and very bored. Revert, block, and ignore is the best solution here. -- 17:20, December 20, 2009 (UTC)


 * I see he has apologised. If he does this again, please let me know. That's obviously very unacceptable -- sannse (talk) 05:03, December 22, 2009 (UTC)

If it's the same user he's found a way round the block. The consensus seems to be leave it unless it's repeated and provided it's that boy I'm quite prepared to treat it as youthful naivity. If he has autism he may not understand distress he causes as one effect of autism is to prevent autistic people seeing things from another person's point of view. Are you sure the death threat was not someone else pretending to be the boy? I haven't got check user and can't tell. Proxima Centauri 22:28, January 5, 2010 (UTC)


 * Hi, these things are never certain, but the IPs match. I think a firm "don't do that again" and another chance seems a good way to go -- sannse (talk) 16:58, January 11, 2010 (UTC)

Pierius Magnus
Could you please checkuser User:William Johnson? It seems that he is a sockpuppet of Pierius Magnus 15:48, December 24, 2009 (UTC)


 * Note that this user, Pierlot, is exactly the same user I asked you to give a crosswiki bann months ago. On the website http://nation.wikia.com/wiki/Main_Page, WikiNation, Pierlot is a troll and a vandal. He edits with only one purpose: to get me banned forever. That is his only goal. To get revenge for me having him banned at other wiki's. He is a troll and he should be stopped. Could you go to the wikia and take a look at his behaviour, and see what you can do to calm him down? Thanks in advance, Dr. Magnus 16:15, December 24, 2009 (UTC)
 * I was only asking for an checkuseer 16:19, December 24, 2009 (UTC)

Pierius has done following bad things:
 * Sockpuppetry:
 * Abusive use of User:86.89.146.118
 * Possible sockpuppetry using User:William Johnson
 * Intimidation and harassment:
 * Very provocative language:
 * pierlot, fuck off you dirty no good asshole vandal bastard
 * no, he is not, i have no sockpuppets, you leave other peoples pages alone pierlot, you troll, always vandalising, you never learned your lesson, wait for the crosswikia bann you no good bastard
 * i have no sockpuppets pierlot you are making shit up because you hate me, because you were a dirty asshole and a vandal at Wikistad and you never forgot that I was the one who banned you, stupid fuck 17:01, December 24, 2009 (UTC)


 * This kind of situations should be asked though Special:Contact. 22:02, December 24, 2009 (UTC)

The thing is, I did not did any vandalism, and have not abused multiple accounts. I have, however, used very provocative language to Pierlot. This was, however, because he was vandalising pages and really got on my nerves. All I did was reverting his vandalism, and at some point, I lost control and began cursing and using provocative language. I do not deny this. And yes, I believe I deserved to be blocked. But he (Pierlot) deserves a block himself. As you know first hand, Sannse, Pierlot has been a known sockpuppeteer on several wikia's and a terrible vandal who did much harm to many people and many sites. I have, to be honest with you, a rather similar reputation. However, it is now being used against me, while he (Pierlot) gets away with it. Which I believe is unfair. I therefore ask you to visit http://nation.wikia.com/wiki/Main_Page. This website is similar to the Dutch site Wikistad, although this is an English language site run by mainly Dutch people. I would like you to go there and give both user Pierlot, and "McCrooke" and their IP-adresses a block of one month, which is the exact same block I got. As he has done the same vandalism and even worse as I have, I believe this to be fair. An eye for an eye, right? You cannot give two people different blocks for basically doing the same things, breaking the same rules... note: ever since I and several others have campaigned her for a crosswiki block for Pierlot, he hates me and out of this hatred he has of me, he keeps trying to get me into trouble, to get me blocked, banned... He vandalises my pages when I am blocked. Dr. Magnus 21:48, December 25, 2009 (UTC)

I need some help.
There's this movie I made up, and its called "Wars". I really have a pic for my wiki, but when I first made it, I skipped the pic step. Now I can't put my "Wars Wiki" picture on. Could you tell me how? --Wafowlks 21:36, December 24, 2009 (UTC) (P.S. Here's my wiki if you need it. OK, maybe not. I lost the URL.)
 * Hi. You created http://kikiohyeah.wikia.com and http://wars2009.wikia.com/ . All you need to do to add a logo is upload a .png image with the name wiki.png

Hi
Pierlot is a vandal, he has vandalised numerous websites and now he got Pierius Magnus banned, who is a fine user and innocent of vandalism. Could you, sannse, block pierlot crosswikia, for he still does awful vandalism. At wikination.com he has three sockpuppets: Pierlot, Piercet and McCrooke. User Pierius Magnus, and William Johnson were banned there for no reason. 15:53, December 26, 2009 (UTC)

Charges for Pierius at wikination {These have been given by DimiTalen, a admin from that site): 16:08, December 26, 2009 (UTC)
 * Sockpuppetry:
 * Abusive use of User:86.89.146.118
 * Possible sockpuppetry using User:William Johnson
 * Intimidation and harassment:
 * Very provocative language:
 * pierlot, fuck off you dirty no good asshole vandal bastard
 * no, he is not, i have no sockpuppets, you leave other peoples pages alone pierlot, you troll, always vandalising, you never learned your lesson, wait for the crosswikia bann you no good bastard
 * i have no sockpuppets pierlot you are making shit up because you hate me, because you were a dirty asshole and a vandal at Wikistad and you never forgot that I was the one who banned you, stupid fuck
 * you and dimitri are both vandals. you are hating pierius magnus, that is why you are doing this. you want him to be blocked, but you know he does not deserve it. You, pierlot, are a vandal and a sockpuppeteer. At wikination you are a vandal, and at wikistad you were, and at many other sites. You hate pierius because he has blocked you, when he was a WikiStad admin, and you were a vandal, and you are just trying to get revenge. 16:13, December 26, 2009 (UTC)
 * Go away 16:14, December 26, 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment: William Johnson is no sockpuppet. Pierius also doesn't have sockpuppets 16:23, December 26, 2009 (UTC)
 * Brainwashed? 16:59, December 26, 2009 (UTC)

Of course he isn't brainwashed, Pierlot. He just hates you, just as much as I do. And he is not the only one. If only I knew how to brainwash people, I would send a thousend users to annoy you... :) Dr. Magnus 17:17, December 26, 2009 (UTC)

Other Article on Septimus Heap
How do I delete this other article on Septimus Heap titled "Septimus Heap"? There's another article titled "Septimus Heap (character)" that's much better and more informative. Yet searches for Septimus Heap lead directly to the less informative one. I figured we might as well erase that to fix the problem. How exactly is that done?

I thought that creating a wiki was a planning tool, not a public space. I'm interested in just having a planning tool. If it's public, I should change my wiki pages....? 
 * Yes, all Wikia wikis are public. Although you can use them for planning projects if that's what you weant :) -- Sannse 00:04, January 12, 2010 (UTC)

Dinosaur Wiki
I know you're the admin of it. But why are there so less updates? It's one reason I notify you to keep it up. I've uploaded some images and edited some pages. I've added dinosaur Statistics. I can make the logo for the wiki too. It's a kinda dry there. Or maybe could you make me an admin? Thanks for your time in reading this,

Default Skin
This may sound like a stupid question, but how do I change my wiki's default skin to MonoBook? I've changed it in my personal preferences but for others it remains Monaco. Is it possible to make MonoBook my wiki's default skin for everyone who visits?

--I was planted as a seed but I grew too tall for my own good. Now my head is above the clouds. 21:39, January 14, 2010 (UTC)


 * Hi, that's not an option we offer at Wikia. You can choose Monobook for yourself, but the default is always a Monaco skin. Sorry -- sannse (talk) 18:48, January 15, 2010 (UTC)

GrouchMan
Hi Lisa, I'm Jayden, one of the editors of the Harry Potter Wiki. I'm writing to you (as you know doubt will have guessed) about GrouchMan (T.J.) and before you say anything, no, he didn't ask me to do this. I've been looking through the case history of the two accounts GrouchMan, and Greymon101 on the Muppet Wiki. I have to say, there were no legitimate grounds for blocking him on either occasion. He joined the site under the GrouchMan account, and made allot of rookie mistakes. He didn't understand about messages left on his talk page, and how to respond to them. Because the Administrators believed him to be deliberately ignoring them - they banned him. He then created the Greymon101 account. Instead of pretending to be a different person, as he could have done (and many do) he confessed to being GrouchMan, apologised for his past mistakes, and asked for a second chance, which they gave him. However, a short while later, he was banned again. This time he made different mistakes. He spent a lot of time fixing redirects, and while this was largely unnecessary, it wasn't detrimental to the wiki, and so I don't believe an indefinite ban was justified. Since joining the Harry Potter Wiki, T.J. has matured vastly, and has become one of the site's most active and helpful contributors. He's not only an extremely skilled editor, but also a kind, considerate person, and a good friend. Personally I (like you) feel he would be better off without the Muppet Wiki because, A: his departure would be a great loss to the Harry Potter Wiki and B: he's a far better editor than the Muppet wiki deserves. However, I'm his friend, and this means allot to him. So, I'm asking you one last time to reconsider your position on this matter. Don't take my word for it however, take a look at the talk pages in question and come to your own conclusion. If the blocks are to stay, then at the very least, they need to be reduced, because being human and making mistakes his no excuse for permanently banning someone. I'm sure you, as a staff member will agree. Thanks for listening. Jayden Matthews 09:32, January 17, 2010 (UTC)

Hello
I just started a kid-powered wiki called Kids Wiki, and I was wondering if you help me get it noticed and help me give it a friendly image. Thank you!

P.S. My friend has been trying to create an account, and no matter how hard he tries, it doesn't work. Can you hlp me with that as well?
