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. DragonBallZ 17:36, 12 February 2008 (UTC)
 * 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.

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)

Copyright Issue
Hi Angela, a student of mine made some logos for use by a campus organization and uploaded them to the ecology wikia as a convenient way for folks to vote. It turns out that they violate Saint Michael's College trademarks in two instances: I have requested through your copyright person on behalf of the college that they be removed but to no avail. SO, any chance of having them removed? I don't have the access to delete them. Feel free to contact me by email: dmccabe@smcvt.edu Declan 03:08, 23 February 2008 (UTC)

Wiki Url
Hi, thanks for the approval of the Materia Magica Wiki.

However I have some issues regarding the site url. The problem is that using materiamagica.wikia.com would be too long and inconvenient. I suggested alyria.wikia.com initially when i requested the wiki, but for some reason it was not used. I would appreciate if I could know why it cannot be used. If alyria.wikia.com is really impossible, then I would still suggest an alternative like mm.wikia.com. (Which I don't know if it meets the requirements?)

Anyway, thanks for you time

Ice Hockey Wiki and NHL Wiki
Hi Angela,

we at the ice hockey wiki have noticed that the NHL wiki is now being edited very sporadically by a single user. Considering our wiki covers that subject and has a much broader scope, we (the admins of IHW) would like to ask you if it would be possible to merge the NHL wiki into ours. We think both projects would benefit from this move, be it by growth in size, quality and active users. Do you think that move would be possible? Please answer me here: http://icehockey.wikia.com/wiki/User_talk:Yannzgob --Yannzgob 00:55, 27 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Hi again Angela,

the NHL wikia side has agreed for the merger :) So when you have some free time, you can begin transferring their wiki into the Ice Hockey Wiki. Thank you very much --Yannzgob 15:48, 5 March 2008 (UTC)


 * The merge is now done. Angela (talk)

Pokemon wiki
Recently the wiki has been receiving a lot of vandalism and currently there are no active admins so they have to wait around for a janitor to come by and clean up the mess. User:MarioGalaxy2433g5 has been helpful on the wiki by reverting vandalism and contacting janitors and is active on the wiki in general so I recommend making him an admin. Would you please consider it. Thank you very much.--Rayman254 00:22, 28 February 2008 (UTC)

changes
Hi Angela,

Is there a way to get automatically informed of any changes of functions (new functions, functions which were deleted, ...) and communications-tools (forum, chat etc)?

Bot
Just wondering: Is there a reason why local bureaucrats cannot grant and remove bot flags? I don't need it done, just asking. Thanks. DragonBallZ 02:20, 4 March 2008 (UTC)


 * I think this was just to prevent abuse since every wiki founder is automatically a bureaucrat, and it's better for someone else to check a bot is approved before adding a flag. Angela (talk)

Username filter
Would it be possible to install some sort of username blacklist or something? We are getting quite a lot of accounts being created with very inappropriate usernames. While this would normally not be an issue as the New User Log extension isn't installed, Recentchanges on Gaming is not very work-safe because of it. --Skizzerz talk 03:52, 7 March 2008 (UTC)


 * There is a blacklist for repeat spammers, but not for users who have only created accounts. Once the gaming wiki is moved to the regular Wikia codebase, this won't be a problem since not all users are displayed in Special:Listusers. Angela (talk)

About Manticore
He's wreaking havoc on the RuneScape Wikia. Someone created a nonsense page on it called "Light bow". The page is based on an already existent item called the Dark Bow. The company who created RuneScape made a sketch of the Dark Bow, colored white. So the person who made the article decided to make a nonsense page about the white version which is just a sketch.

I labelled it with the speedy deletion tag, and Manticore blocked me and claimed I was "vandalizing". Something has to be done. 67.68.37.7 15:26, 7 March 2008 (UTC)

Extension request for Pikipedia
At the Pikipedia, we would like to know whether it's possible to get the AddHTML extension installed.

Bureaucrat in Age of Empires Wiki
Hello Angela, it's the Son of the Witch-King and I wondered if I could become a bureaucrat for the Age of Empires Wiki because though I am already a admin for the wiki I am not a bureaucrat. So I have already contacted the Age of Empires Wiki's main admin, but no response had come because really the only active admin is me. So if you could promote me I would be very thankful.

Sigh...
Do you recall that there was another RuneScape wiki with poor content? I have a complaint about them. Actually, I have SEVERAL complaints: allow me to explain.

I don't know WHY or HOW this happened.

I was on the Internet last night. I had only ONE browser up and no other programs open. In that browser, there was only ONE tab. I decided to visit that wiki to see how they were doing. When I arrived, a pop-up message advertising a autolevelling macroing program (illegally, obviously), popped up and I simply brushed it aside. Then my computer's virus scan started running, but then, before it finished, the whole thing just crashed. That's right: their wiki is infected with a VIRUS. And my computer GOT that virus.

I went to the forums to complain. I did so, and they blocked me, giving me the reason:
 * You have been banned for the following reason:
 * Go back to your Wiki then. This site does NOT contain viruses.


 * Date the ban will be lifted: Never

So they're trying to cover up the fact that they don't care that our new computer gave us a virus. I've had it with them: I'm reporting them to you and to the RuneScape officials of Jagex for breaking RS rules.

If something can be done, I'd really appreciate it --Stinkowing 13:01, 19 March 2008 (UTC)


 * They are right, the wiki itself does not have a virus. It's either the Google ads or you have spyware on your computer because you went to a site like what you mentioned and ran into an ActiveX script or downloaded something you shouldn't have. Jagex will not do anything, because the RuneScape Wiki community, let alone Wikia, has no control over how you take care of your computer. I know this for a fact because we have ran into similar problems at FFXIclopedia before we moved to Wikia with users having complaints about ads with 3rd party programs. Wikia can only add filters to google ads that they find are harmful. So the only thing you can do is be more careful about clicking ads and taking care of your computer and browsing experience. I recommend either disabling ActiveX in Internet Explorer, or use Firefox and install NoScript. Either way, neither Wikia or the Runescape community is at fault here. -- 13:23, 19 March 2008 (UTC)

Fashion wikia help
Hi Angela. Right now I'm the only active user on the Fashion Wikia and I have a few issues that I need help with:

1. Is it acceptable for me to import images from Wikipedia as well as text, and if so, how should I tag the images?

2. Could you or another user help me copy some template code (such as the infobox code) to the wiki? I tried doing this on my own and had trouble.

3. Is their any way we could get this wiki to rank higher on google search when someone searches for "clothing wikia"? (The URL is http://fashion.wikia.com, so would it be possible to create a mirror URL entitled "clothing.wikia.com"?)

4. On some articles, when I add "Template:Wikipedia", the Wikipedia logo image shows up as a link to the image instead of the image. Can you help me fix this?

5. Can you please help show me how to change the top content (e.g. the "editor's pick")?

Hi Angela, I was wondering if you could set the following for Digimon WIki:

Digimon Wiki needs a settings change for uploading images, due to image vandalism. Uploading should be restricted to auto-confirmed users only.

Thanks. -- Ned Scott 03:22, 30 March 2008 (UTC)


 * I've listed this to be done by the tech team. Angela (talk) 09:25, 30 March 2008 (UTC)


 * Thanks! -- Ned Scott 06:11, 31 March 2008 (UTC)


 * This should be working now. Angela (talk) 07:57, 1 April 2008 (UTC)


 * Awesome, thank you very much. -- Ned Scott 07:39, 2 April 2008 (UTC)

Hi there. I have a question on hiring
I would like to work for Wikia. I just do not know if Wikia hires foreign people (I live in Colombia). My english level is advanced, you can check my contributions and judge by yourself. I expect some comments if you have the time... I would like to know if I can work for Wikia from here or if I can be an admin or something, if being admin has any advantage. Also, I would like to be the admin or owner or whatever in Biology Wikia. I have adopted that Wiki because I love Biology too much. Check my user page if you want to know about me. I was also a Wikipedian in Wikipedia, in English and Spanish. I also speak some French. I am a software developer too.

I just hope you check some of my articles. They are in Biology Wiki, The Godfather The Game Wiki and Gaming Wiki. My site is http://go.to/parques but it is down for maintenance. Check sometime, maybe I will fix it soon... Davichito 17:49, 30 March 2008 (UTC)


 * Hi Davichito. Wikia hires people all over the world. The Community Team alone cover 5 continents! Our current openings are listed on the hiring page. Of course, you don't need to get hired to get involved. I'll make you an admin on the biology wiki so you can adopt that. If you're interested in getting involved in the Spanish language wikis as well, you should talk to Juan David who is based in Chile and check out Wikia's Spanish portal. Angela (talk) 07:57, 1 April 2008 (UTC)

Quick Question
Hi Angela, I have a quick question for you. I've been browsing Wikia, and saw that each Wikia set up comes with a mailing list. Can you tell me how to set it up for my Wikia? Eu ( Talk! Contribs ) 23:09, 30 March 2008 (UTC)


 * I can make that for you. Is it for the warriors wiki? Angela (talk)


 * Yes it is. Thanks Angela! Eu ( Talk! Contribs ) 18:51, 1 April 2008 (UTC)


 * Thanks for setting it up, but I was wondering, is their a guide for how to work everything? Eu ( Talk! Contribs ) 14:24, 2 April 2008 (UTC)


 * Hi, it's me again. This may be a stupid question, but, as far as I understand, it seems that all I have to do to post on the newsletter is email the address. Is that true? Thanks again, Eu ( Talk! Contribs ) 19:11, 2 April 2008 (UTC)

Offer to help
Hi, My name is Jeffrey Schmidt

Hi, I would like to donate some of my time and I don't need money. I like designing and reviewing video games and I am learning how to design web pages both on my own and thru college. I would be happy to help out in any way possible. Please email me back at with what you think. Thank you for your time and I hope I can be of some use!


 * Thanks for offering to help. I'll send you an email. Angela (talk) 07:57, 1 April 2008 (UTC)

New Namespace
Hi Angela, I'm from the RuneScape wiki and we're planning to request a new namespace soon. We have nearly full community support, just one oppose and have had consensus declared for a few weeks now. We're having a bot move the pages, and the admins will delete the redirects themselves. I proposed that we move pages to something like E: (as the new namespace we need is Exchange:), but that has yet to be finalized. We don't want the new namespace to count as articles, as they are more like "random chunks of data" (as one admin put it) that we have found ways to utilize in more than 3 different ways, from just one page of information. I just wanted to give you a heads up that this is something we'll be coming to you to request, most likely within the next week or so. Thanks :) Christine 00:52, 1 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Nevermind, KyleH took care of it :) Christine 22:48, 1 April 2008 (UTC)

Need a new admin to help me out
Hi, Angela. I've been the administrator of the Monster Hunter Wiki for more than a year and it now has more than 1,000 pages. I'm going to need help with the wiki now from someone who has the same powers as I do. This is where a friend of mine comes in. She has been a member in the wiki since September, has uploaded more than 100 images, edited more than 500 times, and set up more than 50 templates. I personally know her as mature enough to do the job. Please either give her administrative powers, or give me bureaucratic powers so I can do it myself. It's been more than a year and this is the first time I've asked you. Her username on the wiki is Demiibabii4u. Thank you. PitchBlack696 05:04, 1 April 2008 (UTC)

Hebrew Unciclopadia
our community decided to remove sysop rights from another 2 sysops who have more then 100 contributes' but almost not active at all from 12\2006. here is link to the vote about them. the users are user:Ayalx and user:אחד העם. tanks again. 16:28, 1 April 2008 (UTC)

Davichito again asking...
I want to know how I can promote Biology Wiki. I have expanded it but no one comes. Also some comments are welcome if you have the time, which I think not. Thanks for making me admin there. Davichito 03:01, 2 April 2008 (UTC).

Mistake needing fixing
I'm Dark Overlord, creator of the new Star Wars: The Force Unleashed Wiki and I thought Kazi22 wanted to be an Admin but he actually thought I was recruiting admins for the BS01 wiki and I made him an admin by mistake so could you demote him to end this confusion.

Another Question
Hi Angela, I was wondering, what are the requirements for becoming a Wikia Helper? Eu ( Talk! Contribs ) 13:45, 3 April 2008 (UTC)

Question on Category:Stub
Hi. I want to know how I can put the Category:Stub on the left menu. I have put some categories with #category1, #category2, but I don't know the number of Stub category (I have put category numbers up to 20, and I don't see it). I also put it like [[Category:Stub|Stub but that way the menu does not expand, only the link is clickable.

So, how can I put Stub Category on the menu? Thanks in advance. Davichito 19:55, 3 April 2008 (UTC)

Re: Username
Hi Angela, I have a question concerning changing usernames, more specifically, usurpation of a username. Is it possible on Wikia? Nat 22:13, 3 April 2008 (UTC)

Some requests for mtg
Hi, I'm the adopter/main b-crat-person on the MTG wiki, and I was wondering if you or some other wikia staff-type could enable Semantic MediaWiki and DPL and add in two custom namespaces: "Gallery" and "Rulings". I would much appreciate it :) --Skizzerz talk 13:57, 4 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Catherine took care of this when I saw here on IRC, so just letting you know that the issue has been fixed :) --Skizzerz talk 23:35, 5 April 2008 (UTC)

Serius interwiki troubles
Dear Angela,

I'm a bureaucrat of Wikination. Wikination is one of the Wikias belonging to "UWN" (the United Wiki Nations). We are all fictitious countries with governments, economy and much more. Other nations are on RoWikicity, Wikistad, Wikilandj or Wikicité. It might sound dumb, but there are serious problems between those nations. There have been heavy comments on the government in Wikination and after blocking to people from RoWikicity, the situation got worse. We are almost at war with each other. This is not we want, but the other members seem to be thinking other things. We are trying to step out of UWN, to prevent internet war. Is there a possibility to ensure our safety in another way, for a week or something? Are you empowered to "pauze" wikias for a period? If we could prevent everyone from editing for a short time, the situation could be restored more easily.

Please answer on my Wikia user talk page,

13:30, 4 April 2008 (UTC)

No sysops on the fable wiki
Hi Angela,

We have a slight problem on the Fable Wiki, in that we don't have any admins or members of staff. Or at least none show up on Special:Listusers/Sysops. Vitas claims to be the controller of the wiki, but I've never seen any administratorive actions by him. Another sign is that he doesn't know how to delete pages. This may be simply due to lack of wiki experience, or due to lack of adminstrator- umm -ness.

For administrator rights, I could reccomend either Kadajvince, Vitas, or myself. To make the final decision, I reccomend you simply look at our previous contributions.

Thanks in advance - Game LordTalk 16:06, 5 April 2008 (UTC)

Forumadmin for Wikia Gaming
Could you please assign some of the admins at Wikia Gaming (gaming) forumadmin status? I'm guessing give it to the bureaucrats for sure and then there will probably be some sort of discussion on giving it to others, so I'll keep you posted on that. Just a note that if you don't give it to at least one person, about 80% of the forum is locked out for everyone (including mods). --Skizzerz talk 23:37, 5 April 2008 (UTC)

Who do I ask? Help with Templates?
My question is here: http://community.wikia.com/wiki/Forum:Need_help_with_conditionals_and_tables but, I'm also wondering where would be a good place to ask for help on other template/coding related questions. I know of irc://irc.freenode.net/wikia but they don't always have an answer for me. Any other places I could see help from? Nicolasjager 06:01, 7 April 2008 (UTC)

Re: Username
Hi Angela, Thank you for replying to my message. The problem is I don't know which Wikia that this account initially opened on. As well, there might be a possibility that it might be a completely inactive, no edits on record account as were the ones on Wikipedia, although that might not be the case.

Adopting/importing Contract Bridge wiki
Hi,

I've been working on a bridge wiki that I've hosted on my own computer for a while, and after much consideration have decided I'd like to try to move it over to Wikia's http://bridge.wikia.com. It is currently online at http://kupopo.yi.org/wiki and it uses one standard extension that Wikia doesn't have (CSS - I believe I can get around this by using a global stylesheet for the whole wiki, though), and two extensions I've written myself: ImgLink and FancyTable. I started moving content over by hand, but decided it would be a lot easier if it could be done automagically. There are a few details that would need changing to go public (i.e. the main page is not quite appropriate currently) but for the most part the information we've got is generally applicable and should be of broad interest to the bridge community. Please let me know what I can do.

Thanks! Kupopo 06:29, 11 April 2008 (UTC)

Done
Hello! The translation is done!

I saw you have drasticaly modified the interface. The new interface is very cool but some interface elements are not translated (like "Community" or "Welcome back," or "Request a new wiki" or "Related Communities". I may translate them also if you want.

I also saw that you have created a picture based on my text "Creează-ţi propria" but the text in the picture is not "Crează-ţi propria Wikia" but "Creaz - i propria". Please correct this or let me correct this.

Have a nice day! -- <font style="font-family:Tahoma">PetruD <font color="#00A500">mesaj 15:25, 8 April 2008 (UTC)


 * Can you send me a corrected version based on the image at Translations/Create your own? Then I can add that to the relevant wikis. Angela (talk)

Deleting images on ImagineWiki
Hello, Angela. I am Mighty Erick, again. It is only I need to delete about 500 images I created there (now I uploaded them into a new wiki). It will take too long. Is there a way to make it easier? Thanks. 15:48, 8 April 2008 (UTC)


 * If it doesn't need to be done urgently, it should be possible for a bot to do this. Do you have a list of the images that need deleting? Angela (talk)

Persistent Vandal
Can you please do a checkuser on this vandal? He is a persistent vandal and it's really annoying, so can you please ban his IP address and such for an infinite amount of time for us at (English) Star Wars Fanon? Thank you very much. -- Victor  ( talk ) 00:22, 11 April 2008 (UTC)


 * I've blocked the open proxy that vandal was using. Angela (talk)

Thanks for blocking that proxy. However the vandal struck again, same one (I know because the vandal always moves the same pages) and so can you please do a checkuser again on this user? Thank you, it's much appreciated. -- Victor  ( talk ) 16:19, 12 April 2008 (UTC)


 * I've blocked that one too. Angela (talk) 17:36, 12 April 2008 (UTC)

A question
What happens if every administrator retires a wiki? Who makes new ones? That's sort of the problem here... 01:23, 11 April 2008 (UTC)


 * Any one on the Community Team can create new admins. If a wiki doesn't have any active users to become admins, you can list the wiki for adoption by placing on the home page. Angela (talk) 11:01, 12 April 2008 (UTC)

RSS on a Wikia wiki
Is it possible to show RSS-feeds from a other site on a wikia wiki?

If it is possible, how do I use it? Is it possible that you show it on mij userpage? Thanks! --MenM 15:57, 11 April 2008 (UTC)


 * Yes, it's possible. You just to type the feed address . See Help:RSS2Wiki or the example on my user page. Angela (talk) 11:01, 12 April 2008 (UTC)

Contract bridge wiki followup
Thanks for getting everything up and running! The old wiki didn't actually have any User or User talk: pages, so no worry there. And most of the templates need adjustments for the text-based suit icons so I can bring them in by hand. Thanks again! --Kupopo 22:25, 12 April 2008 (UTC)

AutoCAD Wiki
Hi, Angela. I don't know what you (Wikia) did to the AutoCAD Wiki, but it looks great.

I am increasingly bullish about Wikia as the home for the One True AutoCAD wiki. Only time will tell. Tom Haws 05:24, 14 April 2008 (UTC)

Administrator
Hello. I have started to take care of an abandoned wiki for the movie Sweeney Todd.

 * I think it has been done, but I can't check since your nick (Lord_Oblivion) is set to private. Can you check when you're next on IRC to see if it's working? Angela (talk) 21:12, 18 April 2008 (UTC)


 * I should see it when I whois myself, correct? Unfortunately, it hasn't changed.--75.68.134.170 05:13, 23 April 2008 (UTC)

Wiki Helpers
Hi Angela!

I don't know if I'm supposed to be bugging you about this, but I have a few simple questions about wiki (Wikia?) helpers. First of all, do they volunteer from home? Can they choose what wikis that they work on? Where can I find out about becoming one?

I am interested about becoming a wiki helper, but I don't really want to if I can't do it from my own computer.

Thanks,

P.S. What are user boxes?


 * Wikia Helpers has more information on this. Often the people with this are interns. We advertise open positions on the hiring page and that will have details on whether or not the position can be done remotely - it usually can. User boxes are templates people add to their their user page that give some information about them, such as which sports team they support, etc. Angela (talk) 19:57, 23 April 2008 (UTC)
