New wiki
Can you set up a new wiki for us - the Whitmarshwiki? Also, is semi-protection offered?? --Jazgred 23:32, 15 April 2006 (UTC)


 * Yes, but please send a request form with details of what this wiki would be about. Angela (talk) 00:38, 16 April 2006 (UTC)

Barnstar

 * Thank you! That's my first Wikia barnstar. I hope you have a Happy Easter. Angela (talk) 03:30, 16 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Looks like it's the first one anyone's received on the Central Wikia. That seems appropriate to me.
 * Happy holidays to you! (I just finished helping out the Easter bunny.  What fun!)  --CocoaZen 03:40, 16 April 2006 (UTC)

Request of account removal
Hi Angela! It may sound strange and inconvenient to You, but I would like you to remove my sysop privileges along with my whole accout from Nonsensopedia. I may ask Jason if it is of too much trouble to you. It is the last thing here for now I ask of you so please remove my whole account. If it is impossible though, just remove sysop privileges from me. It is because I would like to drop any contact with them, as they will sure try to perceive me to come back. Yet, due to interpersonal circumstances on this wiki, I just want to part from them. Hope you'll understand. Best regards and happy easter --Sos 09:37, 16 April 2006 (UTC)


 * I can't delete accounts, since they are shared across all wikis, and not specific to Nonsensopedia. However, I have removed your admin access. I would like to hear more about what the problems are and why you decided to quit. Please email me (angela at wikia.com) if you don't want to discuss it publically. Angela (talk) 00:58, 17 April 2006 (UTC)


 * Hmm... It seems that I still have my sysop, but let's keep it this way for a time being. I'll keep in touch with you and try to explain the situation. Thanks for your concern. --Sos 21:44, 17 April 2006 (UTC)

Wiki name change
Can you change our wiki name to Merseyuncyclopedia please - Merseywiki is no longer appropriate. --Wicklow 12:16, 16 April 2006 (UTC)


 * No, please use Uncyclopedia for parody content. The Mersea wiki is supposed to be a real wiki about the county of Mersea. Angela (talk) 00:58, 17 April 2006 (UTC)

Special Page Request
Hey, Angela, I was wondering, can you make a restricted special page that tells you what other peoples IP addresses are? Thank you. &mdash; The thing  Talk 16:40, 16 April 2006 (UTC)


 * Not really, since IPs are private information. Staff can see them using CheckUser. Angela (talk) 00:58, 17 April 2006 (UTC)

The Matrix Online Wiki
I just tripped over this site and found the Matrix Online wiki. Having had fun updating wikia for other games, I decided to give it a go. I posted about it on the SOE site: Matrix Online Wiki and will see if that generates any community interest.

Thank you for providing this service to us (I noticed you were policing the site for spam).--SwordMage 20:03, 16 April 2006 (UTC)


 * Good luck. I hope the message brings in some new users. Angela (talk) 00:58, 17 April 2006 (UTC)

statistics
Hi Angela. Way back in June you added three offsite images which carry a little bit of auto-updating ranking information to the Statistics page. Since then we've changed to "Wikia.org," so the first is no longer accurate. Can you remember where you got them? – Jello 2 21:52, 17 April 2006 (UTC)


 * They were from alexa. I'll update it now. Angela (talk) 23:44, 17 April 2006 (UTC)

Admin right removal on pl.fantasy
Hi Angela. One of out bureaucrat, ZelDelet gaves a bureaucrat right to his sock puppet Wikirs. He do this without any consultation with anybody. Please remove bureaucrat and admin rights from Wikirs. I know it's the same person becouse Wikirs is (now) inactive founder of Digitalpedia and ZelDelet tells me some time ago that this is his account. Please use checkuser if it's neccessary.

ZelDelet is a good admin, but is also a person who loves power. I would be also mostly pleased if you removed bureaucrat flag from ZelDelet, becouse it's not the first time when ZelDelet does everything to have more power. He also forced Server Revres to make him bureaucrat. It's maybe foult, I gave a sysop to ZelDelet, becouse I needed help in translating MediaWiki, but ZelDelet even don't touched any MediaWiki files. Szoferka 17:41, 18 April 2006 (UTC)


 * Normally I wouldn't comment on this, but it's kind of striking, when Szoferka who got to be a bureaucrat on Nonsensopedia, just because ZelDelet didn't ask anybody is now claiming that giving out bugeaucrats without any consultation is illegal. --Sos 07:58, 22 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Sos got no idea what is going on on Nonsensopedia, becouse he is still absent. Barratry is his centraly and only job. To see his activity please look at his contributions (less than two peer day). I probably got more edits than all the admins together have, so I am a bureaucrat. Szoferka 08:13, 22 April 2006 (UTC)

Problem with the URL of the new wiki, Code: WIKI...
Angela, the URL of Code: WIKI which you sent me via email does not work, or the wiki does not exist yet. Has Code: WIKI been created, or are you still awaiting my email reply? Because if it has been, the URL (or the Wikia itself) does not work. Please inform me of the problem. Thank you. KFan II 22:11, 20 April 2006 (UTC)


 * It doesn't exist yet. I'll make it now. It will be at http://codelyoko.wikia.com. Angela (talk) 01:10, 21 April 2006 (UTC)

Code: WIKI
Angela, can you transfer all the pages from the old Code: WIKI to the new Code: WIKI, or is it too much to ask? I can't transfer all the files, because some of my users put spoilers on the pages I don't want to see, if you understand. Thank you for your consideration. KFan II 02:11, 21 April 2006 (UTC)


 * Did you see the email I sent you? Angela (talk) 03:23, 21 April 2006 (UTC)

No. I've talked to the other users on Code: WIKI, and they do not want to move to the Wikia host, as they prefer EditThis.Info for some reason or another. In any case, I must comply with my community. Thanks for the offer, but my users have made their choice. Sorry to waste your time like this. KFan II 11:37, 21 April 2006 (UTC)


 * Do you mean that you don't want this wiki at all? Angela (talk) 07:03, 23 April 2006 (UTC)

Its too much work. Sorry. KFan II 20:18, 12 May 2006 (UTC)

About Martin Oei's page
I am looking into this. I've moved the messages from here to a private wiki to prevent another argument developing here and to try and keep all the information in one place. Angela (talk) 07:30, 22 April 2006 (UTC)
 * What is the address of the private wiki?--210.3.25.137 02:08, 27 April 2006 (UTC)
 * It's only accessible to staff. KaurJmeb will start working for Wikia on May 2nd. Since she speaks Chinese, I have asked her to look into this issue. Angela (talk) 06:29, 27 April 2006 (UTC)

Wiki request
Could you allow us to have our own wiki, but without the shared user database here, and the checkuser?? It's a slightly nonsensical Wikipedia parody... --Southmare 13:21, 25 April 2006 (UTC)


 * No, sorry, but all wikis are set up to use the same user database, and removing CheckUser would probably just lead to abuse. Also, Uncyclopedia is already a Wikipedia parody, so we wouldn't want to duplicate that. Angela (talk) 14:38, 25 April 2006 (UTC)

CheckUser
Please add this to ALL wikis!! --Thornfires 13:04, 27 April 2006 (UTC)


 * No, that would be a huge violation of privacy. There is no need to see the IP of every user. Angela (talk) 15:29, 27 April 2006 (UTC)

News box translation
That's the russian translation:
 * Новые вакансии в Wikia!
 * Требуется PHP-программист.
 * Присоединитесь к нашей команде и получите удовольствие от разработки Wikia и свободного проекта MediaWiki.

Edward Chernenkoo 12:03, 28 April 2006 (UTC)


 * Thanks! I'll add it to MediaWiki:News box/ru. Angela (talk) 12:19, 28 April 2006 (UTC)

egao.wikia.com
The discussion have been moved to http://uncyclopedia.org/wiki/Babel Talk:Zh-hant/首頁. The whole discussion would be in Traditional Chinese.--Hant 16:14, 4 May 2006 (UTC)

Just saying 'Hello!'
Hi Angela - I note that you are my Wiki Ambassador. As a member of Her Majesty's Armed Forces, it is my duty and pleasure to observe the niceties of life and present myself.

I am a recent convert to the whole 'Wiki' lifestyle but I am having huge amounts of fun already, especially at my single contribution to date, The Army Rumour Service page.

I look forward to exploring this world in greater detail! Stay safe!

Help please
OK, so I made a new Wikia ( http://proboards.wikia.com/wiki/Main_Page ) that you apporoved, but am having trouble with it. I don't appear to have any administator powers, and don't know what my "administrator" username or password would be, as I never got an email stating it. Can you help me?


 * You just need to log in as Zangoose if that is your account. If you don't remember the password, use the "send new password" button on the login page. Angela (talk) 04:27, 30 April 2006 (UTC)

Thanks! One more thing....
This is still the owner of Proboard Wiki speaking.... Thanks! But one more thing: Are there any administrator privilages that should be seen in this account? It appears to be the same as any normal users. Thanks again :)


 * See the Administrators' how-to guide. Basically, you can delete pages and block users, but you don't yet have any pages or users, so the access level makes little difference. Angela (talk) 17:50, 30 April 2006 (UTC)

Translation
Hi Angela. Could you give me an advice how to start translation of all Central Wikia pages into Polish, how to categorize it and how to link it to exsiting pages in other languages (none, only some or maybe all)? Can I put Polish help pages into help namespace or where else I can put it? Szoferka 07:31, 2 May 2006 (UTC)


 * I've added a Pomoc namespace (and Dyskusja pomocy for the talk pages) where you can put them. You can label the pages with Category:Pomoc. You can use interlanguage links like en:Help:Contents to link to other versions on this wiki. Angela (talk) 16:22, 2 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Wow, thanks, namespace is a big responsibility. :) I will try to do my best to make it a really good think. Szoferka 01:27, 3 May 2006 (UTC)

Melbourne Wiki
Hi Angela, as you're a Melbournian, you might like this effort to create a city wiki for Melbourne. I'm still trying to find people that are willing to contribute, though. So not much there, yet. --Jsfan 04:31, 5 May 2006 (UTC)


 * I suggest you use the Australia Wikia instead since one aimed only at melbourne isn't likely to be active enough. Please don't use Wikia to promote non-Wikia sites. Angela (talk) 05:08, 5 May 2006 (UTC)

De-bureaucrating at the X-Files Wiki
On the X-Files Wiki, I accidentally made a user into a bureaucrat without meaning to. I meant to give them administrator rights, instead. Is there a way you or I can remove their bureaucrat status? I would prefer that you respond on my talk page here. --84.65.92.137 19:32, 5 May 2006 (UTC)


 * Fixed. Angela (talk)

Allowing blocked users to edit their own talk page
Hello Angela, I am from the Austin Powers Wiki and I have noticed that blocked users are not able to edit their talk page, so they wouldn't be able to contest their block (we need to know if they want to be unblocked, and they are anons, so they wouldn't be able to e-mail us). Is there something we can do (or perhaps you can do) to make it so blocked users can edit their talk page? You may reply on my user talk page here. Thanks. 72.144.27.228 01:00, 6 May 2006 (UTC)


 * It's supposed to work everywhere but Uncyclopedia. I can't find what's causing it, but I'll try to get it fixed by someone. Angela (talk) 10:43, 6 May 2006 (UTC)


 * Okay, hopefully you find the problem. :) 72.144.27.228 22:32, 6 May 2006 (UTC)

Admin
Hey Angela, I need admin stats in my wiki, but i can't figure out how to. I've read user access levels and the Admins' how-to guide but I don't know how I can make myself an admin, so I thought I would ask you how to.

Oh, and also, I've been having trouble updating my logo for the Wiki.

Thanks &mdash; Stake black19:40, 8 May 2006 (UTC)


 * I'll reply on your wiki. Angela (talk) 08:36, 9 May 2006 (UTC)

Japan Wiki
The Japanese Wiki has already been created but I am making an English version. Oh and can I be admin on all the projects I create? General Eisenhower (war) 21:13, 8 May 2006 (UTC)


 * Which wiki are you talking about? The war wiki is in English, not Japanese. Angela (talk) 08:36, 9 May 2006 (UTC)

RLDS - InterWiki link problem
Hi. I stumbled onto the RLDS wikia today to see what it was, and discovered that the admin was having a problem with InterWiki links. Testing it, they don't seem to be working. Were you aware of that? Also, it doesn't appear to be included in the List of Wikia, although it's admin has helpfully started an info page on it. Thanks, Nhprman 01:19, 10 May 2006 (UTC)


 * Thanks for your message. It wasn't in the list just because I made it at 3am and went to bed before doing that. :) It's there now, and the interwikis are working again. Angela (talk) 03:01, 10 May 2006 (UTC)
 * You're terrific. Thanks! Nhprman 20:43, 10 May 2006 (UTC)

Fantasy-Worlds
The administrator from Fantasy Worlds seems to have been inactive since the 28th of December. I'm very interested in taking over this project, as I have a great interest in fantasy, and will be very active (every day). Macai | Talk


 * There's no ownership of wikis, so you wouldn't really be taking it over, but feel free to edit there and redevelop the site if you like. If you find you need admin access there once you've made some edits, just let me know. Angela (talk) 17:28, 10 May 2006 (UTC)


 * Alright. Thank you! Macai | Talk

Angela! Please help!
Nuipedia has been taken over by some weirdo! Please restore power to me and take away his SysOp priveleges! I am the rightful owner of Nuipedia, and he has blocked me! KFan II 22:44, 11 May 2006 (UTC)


 * Please don't call other users weirdos. Have you tried discussing the problems with him? Are you adding inaccurate information to that wiki? You do not own the wiki, and it's not possible to block an admin. Angela (talk) 07:13, 12 May 2006 (UTC)

Sorry for the weirdo comment, but this user has somehow become an admin (I did not appoint him), and he has blocked me, and I was an admin and a Buerocrat. I was not putting false information on the wiki, at least not any I know of. Not being able to edit, I cannot converse with him. Please find out how he hacked into the system and why he did it. Thank you. KFan II 20:17, 12 May 2006 (UTC)
