Irish archaeology wikia
Hi Rieke, thanks for the encouragement for the Irish archaeology Wikia. However I feel this should not be part of a general archaeology wikia as it is a tiny tiny aspect of a tiny part of the world and that it would not make sense to lump these sites together with the Pyramids etc. What I want to do is create a database for Irish researchers and I have not the time or interest in global archaeology. I feel that to make my project part of the large wikia would only confuse people. If you can have so many separate fan sites then maybe you can make room in your heart for this one??? Thanks again John McCarthy 143.117.30.204 15:29, 13. Okt 2006 (UTC)

 * done :-) --rieke 14:17, 22 October 2006 (UTC)

Thank you so much Rieke! One question, I deleted things that had 'delete' on it and I deleted it, question - How do I remove the links in the maintenance page? Thanks again. Sundogs 17:55, 22 October 2006 (UTC)


 * Hi Sundogs, your deletions were all correct :-) As you may have noticed already, you are also able to view or restore pages that were deleted. But be careful with images: they are still not recoverable when they were deleted (this will be possible in the future, when we'll upgrade MediaWiki).
 * Hmm, which "links in the maintenance page" do you mean exactly? Most of the entries in Category:Maintenance are supposed to be there, or not? --rieke 18:10, 22 October 2006 (UTC)

I ment the page(s) that had the marked for deletion on them were in the maintenance page, with me so far, and I deleted them except for the needed files. After the deletion was done, the page were deleted were still listed as needed to be deleted. How do I get them off of there. Thanks. Sundogs 18:14, 22 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Ah, I see. Please simply try to reload the page or clear your cache. If this doesn't help, you may purge that page. Hope, this helps :-) --rieke 18:25, 22 October 2006 (UTC)

Rieke, may I make a small change to the Main Page to let everyone know about the switch of Administrators? Or should I post this in the Discussion Page? Also, I like to have a Administrator's Box (a content box where I, and other staff, can only post thoughts, notices, and other related things) on the Main Page? Thanks again for helping.

Quick help here, I am trying to make a Company Template. Each time I do it; it comes out offsidedly. What is the easiest way to do this without the headache? Thanks. Sundogs 05:37, 29 October 2006 (UTC)

Comic Series Wikia
You're welcome. I've pretty much just been holding the line with shipping dates and schedules since most of our other frequent contributors faded away. It'd be nice to attract some more people to get this a little more robust... --Davidscarter 20:18, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

Pen Pal Wiki
Can you check the Pen Pal Wiki when you get the time? I've done a lot of restructuring, there. See if you think it's on the right track. CQ 10:20, 22 October 2006 (UTC)

Ein Bitte und eine Frage
Vielen Dank für das andere Symbol! Aber wäre es nicht möglich, dieses Symbol als Symbol hierfür oben links einzusetzen?

Noch eine Technixsche Frage: Hat Wikia eine andere Software wie die Wikipedia, oder muss ich bestimmte Dinge hier noch programmieren? Z.B. erscheint eine Navigationsleiste hier nicht so wie in der Wikipedia, obwohl alles genau übernommen wurde.

In jedem Fall Dank' im Vorraus und

Gruß aus dem Allgäu, Lupíro Lupirka 14:52, 22 October 2006 (UTC)

Deleting talk pages
Hello, i might have it wrong, but in most places i've seen that use wikis it's quite rude to edit/delete talk pages, unless they are the act of vandalism. The fact that you don't see the page as needed doesn't mean that it's actually not useful to anybody else. At very least you could request for the actual editor to do so. Thanks.

 * Hi Ethical Anarhist, thanks for this note. The pages you're probably talking about were orphaned redirects, or very old one-or-two-entry-lists that were (already) better substituted by a category. Can you tell me what the use of Student associations (an orphaned redirect, also broken before) and the page College and University Student associations (from 2005, only one entry) is in comparison to the open Category:Student Associations?


 * Hum, the only talk page I've recently deleted on Students Wikia, was Talk:How do I... - and that was your question ("Can somebody please explain to me the purpose of this page? Ethical Anarhist 08:10, 30 Mar 2005") regarding the use of the page How do I... (only content since March 2005: "Please list in alphabetical order [Follow cricket]"). So, do you really want to restore that page? Or, what is its need, if the correcponding page itself is without a need? To get it right: Do you want to keep talk pages of regularly deleted articles?
 * And what do you mean with "it's quite rude to edit/(...) talk pages"? A bit puzzled ... --rieke 09:21, 29 October 2006 (UTC)
