Footers
I added the fall season footer to a whole slew of wikis, and now I've created a batch of more footers. You can see them all in the Footers category. Some of them need a graphic -- I listed them on your user page. The science fiction one is the only one that I'm hot for right now; the rest could wait. You feel like making a sci-fi picture? -- Danny (talk ) 21:01, 15 September 2007 (UTC)

Stuff to do
I changed things a little on the tasks list on your user page here. It's nothing new -- but it's only a week until the premieres, so we should probably prioritize building the content up. -- Danny (talk ) 01:21, 14 September 2007 (UTC)


 * Roger that. I just got the Journeyman and Chuck pilots, so I'll be going to town with imagery. Where's my QuartzBlue? —Scott ( talk ) 05:51, 14 September 2007 (UTC)


 * Yay for pilots. You mean Journeyman and Bionic? I've got Chuck covered -- I added some stuff yesterday, and I'll do more today. And I know, I want my Blue too. -- Danny (talk ) 11:37, 14 September 2007 (UTC)

Mondays on NBC
By the way, I moved the main pages on Chuck and Journeyman to say "Mondays on NBC" in the hope that it might help us out with the Google rankings. "Chuck" and "journeyman" are both really common words, so I don't know if people will find us just by searching for those. So I thought this might help us show up in searches for "chuck nbc" and "journeyman nbc". Just so you know. -- Danny (talk ) 18:16, 13 September 2007 (UTC)


 * I noticed that. I think it's a really good idea. —Scott ( talk ) 18:33, 13 September 2007 (UTC)

Welcome
Welcome, Scarecroe! (Even though you've been here for awhile I think, everyone should get a welcome.)

Thank you for updating the main page with the new featured Wikicity! --CocoaZen 22:48, 7 February 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for helping with the branding survey
Thank you for completing the Community Central:Brand Audit User Survey. We really appreciate your responses. Lots of improvements and new features were suggested, and I hope you'll see these being implemented over time. The results are now being analysed by a PR firm, so you might see some interesting changes to the design of the site as a result. If you have any more feedback, we always welcome that in the Wikia forums. Angela (talk) 17:33, 24 July 2006 (UTC)

Mass-welcoming users
While it's not something bad or anything (you are thanking them for doing something), please consider using a flagged bot when mass-welcoming users so that the edits do not flood recent changes. It helps all of us look over edits and such. --Skizzerz talk 23:29, 26 February 2008 (UTC)

Thanks
It was great to chat with you at WonderCon. I knew a little about Wikia, but the chance to set up an account and learn a little more about the community was great. I hope to check out several hubs when I have a chance this weekend. Thanks again. Yeshuamyking7 23:42, 26 February 2008 (UTC)

WonderCon Contest Winner?
Hey there! I got an e-mail a few weeks ago informing me I had one the grand prize for the WonderCon giveaway. I e-mailed you my info, but I haven't heard anything back. :( What's going on? Just wondering! Thanks for Wikia! Rossr 00:58, 13 March 2008 (UTC)

New Wiki
Hi - I hope this is the right place to add this... I've just started a new wiki, and I'm not sure how to add skins. I posted on the forum, and Manticore suggested I contact one of you guys, and you seemed like the best bet :)

The styles I'm looking at are here: http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Gallery_of_user_styles But I don't really have a clue. I added some CSS, but it hasn't made a difference, and I don't know where to put PHP/images etc.

I haven't gone into any depth with a logo etc yet, as I'm not sure if a skin is going to work, but ideally I'd like to start with "rounded blue edition" about halfway down that page. If you've got time, is there any chance you could help? My wiki is factopedia.wikia.com, and I'm on about 9-5 GMT. Cheers! Soop 2 13:28, 6 May 2008 (UTC)

Can someone help me?
I want to be able to have tabels that looks like the one on this page: http://oc.wikia.com/wiki/Rachel_Bilson That one with the picture of Rachel and the info below. Well, when I copy the table to Gossip Girl Wiki, it dosen't work. How can I get it right? -- user:V mars 17:14, May 12, 2008

DC Comics Movies
Hi Scarecroe, can you please create the DC Comics Movies page immediately. I've been waiting for the wikia after requesting for a few weeks but no prevail. Kodojak (talk) 09:23, 15 August 2008 (UTC)


 * But you created the Marvel Movies page and DC needs a movie page for the movies such as the Batman and Superman movies. Kodojak (talk) 16:08, 15 August 2008 (UTC)

Hey
Yeah, it's me again, but this time, I'm coming on behalf of the As the Bell Rings Wiki. I was wondering if we could request an user right change. We've created an account that we would like for it to be changed to a bot. Are we allowed to have this change? The account name is Pearlmaster and we would like to use this account for heavy work--an account that we admins share just like how a bot should be. Thanks for you time!-- ☆Tavis ource   -Sharp eyes, slick moves  00:32, 21 May 2009 (UTC)

Trues?
Scarecroe, I can't take anymore. I used to love Pixar Wiki for taking me when I was blocked from Muppet wiki. I just want to be unblocked. I am not like a pizza. You can't pick up the phone and order more of me. Please, unblock me. :<-- - WildMIKE123v5Talk 18:37, 9 August 2009 (UTC)

Message
Hey, looks like your talk page isn't in good shape on the Pixar wiki. Anyways, I sent you a message, hopefully you received it? --Jeff (talk ) 03:54, February 6, 2010 (UTC)

Driving visitors
Hey Scarecroe; saw your post on Zeypher's Talk page on the Big Bang Theory wiki, and was just curious what options/suggestions Wikia had for Search Engine Optimization. I'm an admin on that wiki, and over at the d20 NPCs wiki, and I'd be interested in how Wikia could help drive more visitors to either/both! -- MidnightLightning ☇(talk) 15:13, June 18, 2010 (UTC)

New Wiki Style
Discussion moved to blog-How pointless of me, I just found out it was optional.

Little help?

 * Hello there. As the guy who set the layout for the Indiana Jones Wiki back in them thar Monaco times, could you help adapt our front page to The New Look, please? We've been impacted very little by the change except we don't have a logo that fits anymore and the templates are off, but since people like myself aren't skilled in that area, any help would be appreciated.  Vetinari (Appointment) 16:46, October 20, 2010 (UTC)
 * Thanks again for the help. Could you point me in the direction of anyone I can beg for help with fixing our templates/infoboxes? :)  Vetinari (Appointment) 23:39, October 23, 2010 (UTC)
 * If you make a comparision between the infobox on Raiders on Monaco and Wikia skins, the Wikia skin offsets the headers, adjusts the box width limit to the longest line (as opposed to the image) and there are no more line breaks to distinguish the fields, which no longer have the name then the list following on, it has the name at the middle of the list. If that makes sense. ;) The problem with the templates can seen be if you compare any of them really but future product and Verify are good examples.  Vetinari (Appointment) 17:03, October 24, 2010 (UTC)
 * "Could you point me in the direction of anyone I can beg for help with fixing our templates/infoboxes? :)" Same request. ;)  Vetinari (Appointment) 20:13, January 20, 2011 (UTC)

Wikia help
I noteced that you are on many of the wikia websites based upon recently released and upcoming movie. I am assuming you work for wikia. An upcoming movie coming out in 2012 called john carter of mars has me concerned, it is based on a really old book series and it has alot of history and backstory to it. There is already 200 pages on Barsoom.wikia.com but that is the problem, most people dont know what the word barsoom even means or how it pertains to the john carter of mars series. The problem is i am worried that a new wiki will be created and showcased (like the gullivers travels wiki and the cowboys and aliens wiki) when a wiki for this franchise/intellectual property already exists. It is a strange concern, but as a huge fan of the series it is a concern. When i type "john carter of mars wiki" into a search engine, the wiki does not come up. . . this is the big problem. Is there anything you or anybody else can do to help to make sure this wiki is not overshadowed or discarded when the movie comes out. . . its a long way off but. . . as a fan i worry, im sorrry to have taken your time. ralok 19:51, December 28, 2010 (UTC)

Glee Wiki
Hello Scarecroe.

I would like to complain about a certain admin on the Glee Wiki: Mr. Santana Lopez. He is very mean to my friends, especially GleeGirl, and I wouldn't expect this from an admin. I do understand that he probably won't get removed, but please do something. He is VERY rude, always cursing, and sometimes even banning people with no reason. Bleghh!!! would be a much better admin.

Thank you for your time.

how about . . . you not do that
Johncarter.wikia.com used to redirect to Barsoom.wikia.com. . . . did you care to. . . give a little thought as to why that might be. . . . because I had already built a comprehensive databse on John Carter of mars. . . for wikia to use. . .for the community. There didnt need to be a new wiki on the exact same subject. . . And I wasnt approached about one of hte wikis redirects being used to make a new wiki. . . Sure I can understand if you want to make a new wiki solely for the film (which the wiki has info not confirmed for the films universe yet) but then you should have used johncartermovie.wikia.com instead of STEALING ONE from a wiki taht has been working hard to produce a great source for John Carter information. . . have you been to barsoom.wikia.com. . . . did you know that barsoom.wikia.com had a spotlight just last month. . . . did you notice when you were changing that wiki taht it redirected to another wiki. . . . did the thought ever cross your mind that. . . that wiki would be an actual place and not a land of make believe. . . I want an explanation. . . for why I wasnt approached for at least a merger for the wiki. . . why barsoom.wikia.com was completely ignored. . . and if not me why not user gnostic who actually founded barsoom.wikia.com ralok 06:39, October 9, 2011 (UTC)

I would have gladly. . . let you be an administrator. . . reformat the front page. . . do any danged thing you liked, I would have been greatful for the help. . . but you didnt ask. . . and I have no idea why. . . ralok 06:40, October 9, 2011 (UTC)
