About Basspedia and Szoferka
Hi!

I'm glad you wrote to me

''From what I hear, you have had a dispute with Szoferka on the

Polish Uncyclopedia''

Case is not that simple. Szoferka is the one that mixes diffrent

wikias affairs. She said, that she is "powerfull enought to send

basspedia up with smoke". I dont want to life in stress, awared

that I can loose it anytime.

I guest Szoferka didn't tell you that since July 24 there is an

alternative for polish Uncyclopedia (in polish - Nonsensopedia but

for a long time Szoferkopedia), this called

Wikihumor (www.wikihumor.ovh.org) and, according to founders word, the only reason

that this site has been created is Szoferka. After few days we got

20 users and most of them are refugees from nonsensopedia. One of

former nonsensopedias sysops wrote exhaustive specification of

Szoferkas conducts like bringing censorship (every attempt of

criticism, even these merits she calles vandalism or personal

atack - she reverts changes and bans those who dares to criticise

her (Nemo iudex in sua causa means nothin to her). There was a

"fight" about article nonsensopedia on polish wikipedia -

Szoferka isnt sysop there, so she couldnt baned her oponents - on

merits criticism she wrote ziew witch means to yawn, later

in discusion, wenn every other person said that Szoferka is

arrogant and she is, like we call it in Poland, like wall (we said,

that "conversation with you is like I talk to the wall) and that

they would never come to nonsensopedia she wrote, that she is glad,

that everyone here who criticised her is a internet troll

(including wikipedia distinguish sysops))). We are still

translating this document to englsh, so you will be able to

acquaint with whole case.

Whats about me -well, here are my contributions - Szoferka called me biggest vandal and troll on nonsensopedia. Korwin (www.wikihumor.ovh.org/wiki/index.php?title=U%C5%BCytkownik:Korwin)


 * OK, thanks Korwin. I need to look at all this, but it's certainly not true that anyone can get the bass wikia shut down.  There is no problem with your work there and no reason to deelte the content.  I'm back at my own computer on Monday and will look more. -- sannse (talk) 20:22, 5 August 2006 (UTC)

Power Cord
I've got your PC power cord. I'll try to stay in the live chat until we figure out a way to get it back to you. --CocoaZen 18:22, 5 August 2006 (UTC)

Thanks CocoaZen! got it now. -- sannse (talk) 20:22, 5 August 2006 (UTC)

More Star Wars Fanon Vandals...
Well, the trolls are back. Sorry to waste your time, or give you any fellings of exaspiration, but there is this vandal on Star Wars Fanon that wrote "This page has been freed by the Holy Druid" on a bunch of articles. Looking at edit histories, there are other recent vandals, but I haven't checked whether they were blocked. All of us at Star Wars Fanon, and even several Wookiepedians, are getting a bit tired reverting all of that. C3PO the Dragon Slayer 13:35, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

Health wikia subpaging
Hi Lisa,

I'm currently working in the Health Wiki at w:c:Health, and I'm trying to get w:c:Health:Neurological disorders/BFS to have a subpage uplink to the higher level w:c:Health:Neurological disorders at the very top of the subpage. I've tried various name prefixes, but I just can't seem to find the correct naming to get it show up like I want it to.


 * I first tried moving w:c:Health:Neurological disorders and w:c:Health:Neurological disorders/BFS to w:c:Health:Illness:Neurological disorders and w:c:Health:Illness:Neurological disorders/BFS, and that didn't fix it.


 * I then moved w:c:Health:Illness:Neurological disorders and w:c:Health:Illness:Neurological disorders/BFS to w:c:Health:Health:Neurological disorders and w:c:Health:Health:Neurological disorders/BFS, and that didn't fix it.

What do I need to do to get the w:c:Health:Neurological disorders/BFS subpage to actually show that it is a subpage of w:c:Health:Neurological disorders by having a standard uplink to the higher level page at the top of the subpage? Thanks, Eric. (I'm watching here) --Ermeyers 18:37, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

Also, what do I need to do to get a page speedily deleted in the Health Wiki? I've been using to no avail. Thanks, Eric. (I'm still watching here) --Ermeyers 00:17, 8 August 2006 (UTC)


 * Subpages are only turned on by default in the user: space, but we can turn them on for other namespaces if that's what you would like for the Health Wikia. On Wikipedia we made a decision not to use them for articles, but that doesn't mean all wikis have to follow that pattern.
 * I'll have a look at pages for deletion and clean up any you have tagged, but I'll also look at admining - the founder(s) don't seem to have ever edited so new admins are needed. -- sannse (talk) 10:59, 8 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Thanks Lisa, I'll talk with Kirk about the subpaging, and get back to you on that. --Ermeyers 13:31, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

Setting up forums on the Health wiki
I've done most of the stuff for getting forums working on Health. Given the direction that Eric seems to be heading, I'm thinking that it might be a good idea. However, not having admin access, I can't do the mediawiki aspects of setting it up. For that matter, it might be nice if I could have admin access, plus I think Eric might be a good candidate for admin as well. --Kirk 00:38, 8 August 2006 (UTC)


 * I've added the last bits to the forum, that should work now. Yes, admins are needed there, I'll look into this a little later today. -- sannse (talk) 11:05, 8 August 2006 (UTC)


 * I've done so, and added you both as admins. Let me know when more are needed -- sannse (talk) 08:35, 9 August 2006 (UTC)


 * Thanks --Kirk 17:54, 9 August 2006 (UTC)

Mentoring
Hey, Sannse! It was great meeting you this weekend -- I'm really happy that I know everybody now.

I did some work tonight on the Wikia Mentoring Project page -- please take a look, and help me fix it up. I looked at the list of new Wikia, and I think we may need to do a little more to help mentors find a wiki that they can help with. Is it possible to see the descriptions and founders' names? I would feel more comfortable as a mentor if I walked into a new wiki and already knew who to talk to. What do you think? -- Danny (talk ) 03:23, 8 August 2006 (UTC)


 * It was great to meet you too Danny :)
 * There is an info link on each of the new wikis on the list you've linked to, that leads to the description page, which gives the founder's name and a description of the wiki. It would be good to have that somewhere more directly, but I'm reluctant to add yet another step to the edits we have to do to set up a new wiki.  I've been wondering if we can do it with templates or something, but can't see a way at the moment.  Maybe the link will do for now, and we can think of another idea later?  Does that sound OK? -- sannse (talk) 11:18, 8 August 2006 (UTC)


 * D'oh! You're right, of course -- I completely forgot about the fact that the link goes to a description page. All I looked at was the list. No, that's absolutely fine -- I'll change the Mentoring page in a bit to describe that better. Sorry, user error. :) -- Danny (talk ) 11:46, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

Soap wikis?
Hi Sannse: You mentioned the other day that there were a couple of Wikia based on soap operas. I looked on the list, and I can't spot them... Do you know which ones they are? I'd like to check them out. -- Danny (talk ) 17:29, 8 August 2006 (UTC)


 * The two I'd describe that way are Dark Shadows and The O.C.. Looking at the list, there are less than I expected though. -- sannse (talk) 18:13, 8 August 2006 (UTC)


 * Oh, okay. I saw those, but I thought you meant there were also some daytime soaps. I'm probably going to send in a request for a One Life to Live wiki. Might as well just go ahead and hand my life over to Wikia... -- Danny (talk ) 18:59, 8 August 2006 (UTC)


 * Heh! What about one for all daytime soaps?  That would be a nice wide topic that could build up over some time... you'll never be reduced to writing about the second green guy on the left again ;) -- sannse (talk) 19:13, 8 August 2006 (UTC)


 * Yeah, but I like that second green guy on the left. I think getting deep into one thing is what Wikia is all about. Let the other soaps have their own wikis. -- Danny (talk ) 21:30, 8 August 2006 (UTC)


 * *g* I would have loved to have this discussion in person - what's best? a narrow subject that quickly gets into detail but may run out of topics in time? or a wider subject that lacks content for longer but always has more subjects to edit?  I tend towards the latter, but some of the most successful wikis have gone for the former.  But either way, you pretty much have a free pass for any wiki you want to start, having shown what you can do already.  So just let me know what you want to try for your next project when you are ready, and I'll set it up -- sannse (talk) 21:51, 8 August 2006 (UTC)


 * That's a good question. I would tend towards going narrow, just because it's possible to get into more depth. Any subject has potentially infinite amounts of detail if you look at it hard enough. But I can see it either way. We could easily have applied for a separate wiki just for Sesame Street, but instead we put all the Muppet stuff together, so we get to make all the connections between the shows. Anyway, I'm just gonna apply for OLTL because I don't care about the other shows. Whenever somebody comes along to do the other soaps, I'll wave at them and be supportive. -- Danny  (talk ) 22:24, 8 August 2006 (UTC)


 * OK, sounds good. Feel free to give me a nudge when you've done the request.  There's quite a backlog after the conference, but I can fast track that one as I already know it's accepted - I just need to pull it out of the list -- sannse (talk) 22:31, 8 August 2006 (UTC)


 * It's done. And may the good Lord have mercy on my soul. -- Danny (talk ) 22:37, 8 August 2006 (UTC)


 * And it's made - have fun! -- sannse (talk) 23:05, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

Permissions
Sannse - Could you please give Kirk administrative (or bureaucratic) rights in the Judaism Wikia. He's been reverting vandalism, and it would be helpful if he could also do things like delete pages. (You can give me bureaucratic rights too, if you want, but I'm ok without.) --CocoaZen 23:33, 8 August 2006 (UTC)


 * Done on both. Something else that wiki needs is a new logo!  I might have a go at that when I finish work-stuff today -- sannse (talk) 08:39, 9 August 2006 (UTC)


 * Yes, please, your help creating a new logo for there and for Cities would be greatly appreciated. I created those as temporary logos to help make it easier to navigate, but would be happy to see them replaced.  Maybe as well as the Wikia Mentoring Project it would be nice to have a place where those of us who are "graphics challenged" could go to request help.  :-)  --CocoaZen 14:48, 9 August 2006 (UTC)

CollinWiki
Hi Lisa -- CollinWiki looks kind of abandoned to me. Of the two main contributors, Doug (the founder) hasn't really been working on it since April, and Brian left around February.

I think there's a few obvious reasons why the wiki failed -- it's all black, which is terribly difficult to read and focus on, plus the explanation for how contributors can help is impossibly complicated. Plus they never said hi to anybody.

Would it be possible to give me adminship on that, so I could fix it up a bit and maybe make it a little more contributor-friendly? -- Danny (talk ) 17:44, 9 August 2006 (UTC)


 * OK, if you think you have time for another project. I've added you there - have fun :) -- sannse (talk) 18:05, 9 August 2006 (UTC)


 * Thank you! I'm not doing much -- I just want to make it not black anymore. I can't stand looking at it! -- <font color="Blue">Danny (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 18:08, 9 August 2006 (UTC)

me podrias ayudar
vea la idea es que me respondas tu desde tu  punto de  vista, esta pregunta que de a seguro no me responderan el alguien al que se la mande:

QUIERO SABER: todos los "puntos  de vista neutrales" ¿tienen que ser  identicos que  el de la  wikipedia?

¿que norma internacionala supedita a que  una enciclopedia sea  o totalmente seria o totalmente   humoristica  o totalmente mierda? ¿porque una  enciclopedia no puede  tener chispa sin ser necesariamente  humoristica, ni mierda? ¿porque no se puede basar   en este  hecho categoristico? : http://www.wikiindex.com/Category:Encyclopedia_of_general_interest

Así nos categorizamos nosotros, y hablar de un tema  no es una invitación o incitación, es  nuestra norma  asi como la de    http://inciclopedia.wikia.org  es la irrreverencia total, y la de http://hablarmierda.net/wiki/index.php?title=Portada es la  basofia total.

entonces al fundar nosotros una enciclopedia   aparte, le creamos un ´punto de vista neutral que difiere del vuestro, y nuestras normas   se plantearon desde un  inicio como  diferentes, no se ademas como es que  no se permite la libertad de expresión en  un espacio  web  ni aun siendo uno el que está pagando el site.

¿o wikimedia ó mediawiki me financiaron algo? a mi no me contaron nada de eso, es mas estuve en un sitio alojado donde   por ignorancia no saben que  cosa es un   1 giga  jejejejeje  dicen que es   100 megas  jua jua jua jua jua, poreso  estaba angustiado de  no tener espacio casi.

en fin me imagino que te burlaras y  saltaras en una pata de  saber este  hecho verdad. pero no importa queria decirle esto a alguien.

lo otro es que se aclaro que  asi como en la  wiki  española se  rendia   honor a la norma   española nosotros como   wiki  nacida en colombia teniamos derecho a exhibir  una libertad de expresión propia de nuestro medio.

se nota que ante de demandarnos no tomaron  en cuenta todos los paragrafos que nos difereniaban y no entendieron que  tambien podiamos entender como chispa  la ironia  y el doble sentido.

pero en fin eso es tiempo pasado.

solo quiero saber, ¿si la vuelvo a montar ustedes nos van a seguir tumbando? o van  a respetar  nuestras normas y dejar de  hablar en nuestra contra en   su nabble.

dime como actuar al respecto? que estilo de norma puedo usar para mi wiki? (distinta a esta) y  es posible crear una licencia? asi como existe la  gdfl  y la  cc   y otras tantas ¿para mi wiki puedo crear  una? ¿como le hago? a que acudo? o a quien?.

como apelar?

 * Hello, I'm afraid I don't speak or understand Spanish, so it's difficult for me to follow what you are saying. But I think you are complaining about your wikia request being rejected.  You asked for a Spanish Encyclopedia with a light, humourous tone.  This seems to me to be too close to the Spanish Wikipedia, and we have a policy of not creating projects that duplicate Wikimedia's.  I'm sorry if you are unhappy with this decision, but it's not one I can change unless I have misunderstood the request.  If you would prefer to mail me about this, I can be reached at community@wikia.com -- sannse (talk) 20:05, 14 August 2006 (UTC)


 * Hi Sannse. If you need help with Spanish requests/complaints I might be of some help. In short, the guy is demanding his encyclopedia-wiki on the grounds of his rights for "freedom of speech". He insists that his encyclopedia would be different from WP, becouse it would have different rules, a different NPOV and be less serious, the norms would be less Spain-centered and more Colombia-centered. It would also be different from Inciclopedia, which is completely irreverent (so he says) or another not wikia-hosted wiki called "Hablar mierda" (Speaking shit) which is dissgusting. He asks: If I set the wiki up again, will you keep turning it down? How shall I proceed? How can I appeal? Which style of norms can I use for my wiki? Is it possible to create a liscence (yes, he said to create, not to adopt or to follow), such as gfdl, cc. How can I do that? Or who should I talk to?--Rataube 02:03, 21 August 2006 (UTC)


 * Thanks Rataube, I got some of that, but missed quite a bit I think - Spanish auto-translation seems rather poor to me. All that seems to reinforce my previous answer though, a change of emphasis and of tone is not enough for us to host a competitor to Wikipeida.  Thanks again -- sannse (talk) 07:01, 21 August 2006 (UTC)

Thanks again.
Hi Lisa, Guybrush from the White Wolf Wikia here. At the risk of getting repetitive, I just wanted to thank you again for undoing the mass vandalism we experienced tonight. All the best with everything. -- Guybrush 13:44, 14 August 2006 (UTC)


 * No problem :) -- sannse (talk) 20:06, 14 August 2006 (UTC)

Logos
Sannse - The logos are GREAT! They don't all meet the 10 foot guideline, but I'd like to use the one you created for Cities. I don't see a way to move an image page. Do I need to download it and re-up-load it as wiki.png? I lose the history that way, but we still have the original image page, so I guess that's ok. (Please let me know if there's a better way to do it.) Would you be willing to create a favicon too? Thanks! --CocoaZen 01:15, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

Christian Community Meeting Please
Hi Lisa, I just checked into the Christianity Wikia, as w:c:Christianity:User:Ermeyers, and I left a message for the founder Nsandwich, who I later found out left Wikia to go somewhere else because of some Google issue, and now it appears that these want-to-be people are completely messing up my personal religion's message. All that I'm asking of you is to come over to my talk page at w:c:Christianity:User_talk:Ermeyers and give me your highly respected two-cent personal summary of what the heck is going on with these people. Thanks very much, Eric. --Ermeyers 00:35, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

Weird Message Notification
Good evening,

Everywhere I go on any wikia, I get a notification that I have a new message waiting at uncyclopedia, but when I click on the link to read my message, there's nothing there. Am I the only one having this problem? How do I get rid of the notification? You can respond here or on my talk page at Wiki24. Thanks. -Kapoli 05:49, 17 August 2006 (UTC)


 * Hi Kapoli, we turned on a new feature yesterday, that is supposed to give notification of messages across all wikia. It seems there are a few bugs still - Uncyclopedia has a different user database and so shouldn't be on this system.  Hopefully this has been fixed now, you may need to refresh (usually Ctrl F5) to clear any, but then you shouldn't get more from Uncyclopedia.  Please let me know if you do.  thanks -- sannse (talk) 09:09, 17 August 2006 (UTC)

Forum request
Hi Lisa, I've listed the layout of the two forums and two subforums that I'd like to start at w:c:Christianity:User_talk:Ermeyers, so could you come over to discuss the subforum implementation with me. Thanks. Eric --Ermeyers 16:59, 17 August 2006 (UTC)

Jack Kerouac Wikia request
Hi Lisa, I was asked to check in with you regarding progress on my request for the Jack Kerouac wikia. I have so far filed an application (on 8/5/06), requested mentoring (Danny has replied to this) and am still waiting for approval. I have also posted my game plan in the proposed wiki section, although I cannot find the page at the moment. Thanks for your help. Kerojack, Argenta 20:32, 17 August 2006 (UTC)


 * Hi Kerojack, I've got the reply to my email you sent, and I'll be making this wiki today. Sorry for the delay! -- sannse (talk) 07:18, 18 August 2006 (UTC)

Hi Lisa, For your information, I wrote w:c:Christianity:Christianity_Knowledge_Base:Community_Portal. Eric --Ermeyers 22:08, 17 August 2006 (UTC)


 * OK, this needs time for the community to respond. You might also consider contacting the current admins to see what is going on with them and if they are intending to return.  I have to say that it is a bit early in your time there to be asking for admin, and very early to be asking to adopt... especially in an active wikia.  I recoment talking more to the community and finding out what everyone wants. -- sannse (talk) 07:18, 18 August 2006 (UTC)


 * Again, Thanks Lisa. Yes, I'm still trying to find the new center of power. I'm not worried about getting admin, because I've got two good friends named Lisa and Angela, who I trust very much to see the right thing to do for a particular Wikia.:) --Ermeyers 12:16, 18 August 2006 (UTC)

Forum troubles at the Psychology Wiki
Hi Lisa. This is Jason, one of the administrators over at the Psychology Wiki. Yesterday, I tried setting up a ToK discussion forum. (ToK stands for "Tree of Knowledge." This refers to a psychology paper on the theoretical unification of psychology.) Anyways, the forum isn't working right.

1.) Lifeartist submitted a post here, but

2.) There's no record of it at the Forum Index, and

3.) There's no record of it nor access to it at the ToK discussion forum.

I don't know how to make this work properly. Could you help me out here? You can leave a message on my talk page at the Psychology Wiki. Have good day! Jaywin 23:32, 18 August 2006 (UTC)

Desysopping request
Hello Ms. Carter! There's trouble at the RuneScape Wiki and I'm appealing to you for assistance. Recently, one of our administrators User:Shadowdancer has decided to sabotage the Wiki. He has been attacking other users:, , , , , . He is overprotective of his edits, and does not understand the concept of ownership on a Wiki. Twice has blocked users for "engaging in an edit war" when in fact they were simply adjusting his edits:, and. Most recently however he has spuriously blocked several users for "making [him] angry" and "defacing the Wiki as much as [he] can". . All users are tired of his abuse of power, and only minutes after the incident a few users have openly supported a desysopping:,. While he has at times been a beneficial contributor, other editors agree that his quick and continual lapses into rage are no longer worth standing. I do have I haven't bored you and hope you will revoke his administrative powers before he chooses to return and destroy once more. Hyenaste talk 00:24, 21 August 2006 (UTC)

Wikia and alternatives
Hi Lisa - I attended the Craigslist Foundation Non-profit Boot Camp on Saturday and consulted with three techies on how to improve my Wikia site. Briefly, they don't think Wikia is the best path for me, and suggested other routes. I've posted my notes here and would like to get some feedback from you and other wikifolk. Thanks; Leo|Talk 13:15, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

 * Done. And I've given you bureaucrat rights now, so you will be able to do this as needed in future.  I encourage you to find more admins, more is better than less for a growing wiki.  Good to see all you are doing, great work! -- sannse (talk) 06:26, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

user blocked
Hello, could you unblock me on polish_uncyclopedia. I have been blocked because, I promised I'll never edit it again (because of one of sysops (her way of treat other users was the only reason of starting Wikihumor, independent "userfriendly" alternative for polish uncyclopedia)). I tried to talk with this sysop - her every single responce is deleting my talkpage (because of "trolling" and vandalizm), and write "please do not feed troll". Well, she calls it trolling - IMHO her behaviour it is a censorship and violation of Nemo iudex in sua causa rule. And one more thing - when Wikihumor was born, sysop I'm talking about, put forward a proposal of negotiations - during whitch she wrote that "soon Korwin will be able to candidate for sysop, because he has over 350 editions in main namespace." Ofcourse, only if we deside to delete wikihumor... And I'm not the first person who believe that Szoferka is extremely biased, and her typicall response for every kind of critisism is to block user and to call him a vandal. Korwin 11:30, 25 August 2006 (UTC)
 * User has been blocked becouse of personal attacks, spam, trolling, vandalism and again for forceing ban. Lol. Szoferka 11:34, 25 August 2006 (UTC)
 * This anwser is typical for Szoferka. To call somebody vandal and troll. To responsce content-related arguments with single "lol" (once she she was called oaf because of that on polish wikipedia..). These "personal attacks" are only seen by Szoferka - no other sysop blocked me ever. Whats more, before I was completly censored on nonsensopedia by Szoferka, few odder admins told me, that they do not believe that I'm vandal, troll etc., but they don't want to mess with Szoferka. Korwin 11:56, 25 August 2006 (UTC)

PS for the record - the cause of block is not "vandalizm, spam and trolling" but "user promised he will never edit nonsensopedia again. I believe that this block will be useful". Korwin 11:59, 25 August 2006 (UTC)

Just A Few Questions
Hi Sannse, I have a few questions regarding my potential new wiki, if you have time. I don't know if you review the requests or not, but I thought I'd try anyway. First, does the site have to be NAME.wikia.com? Obviously Uncyc has its own site name, but I'm guessing Chron did that on his own and had to pay...Secondly, when/if the site is created, will I have bureaucratic rights, so I can add sysops and what not? Thirdly, I know it says 7 days at a maximum, but how long will it usually take for my idea to be reviewed? Also, If you do review requests, I dont think I included everything about the potential site. If you need a broader explanation, feel free to ask. Basically, it will be a humor site where almost anything is allowed, so long as its not extremely offensive or hateful. I think I could really make this work, and I am committed to doing so. Please let me know regarding these questions/concerns. Thanks for your time, --Sir Cornbread 03:31, 28 August 2006 (UTC)


 * Hi, I've been looking at your request today and have sent you an email. Let me know if you still want any of the above questions answered -- sannse (talk) 20:10, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

*sigh* More trouble at Star Wars Fanon
There is a new user called Licorice that has a striking resemblance to Darth Vacatour. It was a striking enough comparison for me to ask an admin about it. Since StarNeptune isn't on, and you've edited recently, I thought I could just ask ip you could check whether Licorice is who he claims to be.

I hope I'm not wasting your time. 22:43, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

Now the user is swearing at us and claiming to be Neomessiah. Bub 22:25, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

WikiJazz
Hey there Sannse. Just replying to the question you had on the jazz wiki site, and my answer is: there aren't a whole lot of online comunities that I can get contributors at (other than the music wiki) but I have plenty of colleagues who would be willing to assist us. They all LOVE jazz, and have already told me that they would help. I hope that answers your question. Now, let's get this baby up and running! -Lord vader1414 02:04, 30 August 2006 (UTC)


 * OK, we'll give it a go. Although to make it a success, you will need to look further afield for contributors.  Promotion is a big part of starting a wiki.  I will make this in the morning -- sannse (talk) 21:20, 31 August 2006 (UTC)

WGC
I just logged onto the WGC and saw countless pages vandalized, the worst part is that Gnosis, under the name Knowledge&mdash;at least I think it's him&mdash;took a part in it. Please ban the people who did that. I'm going to start reverting the rest of it right now. Thanks! NKSCF 20:59, 31 August 2006 (UTC)

What and where is WGC? If it's on editthis, Wikia has nothing to do with that, it's a different hosting company. -- sannse (talk) 21:20, 31 August 2006 (UTC)

Kuralyov is wasting his time
Please tell Kuralyov to stop hunting Crumb. "Crumb" is already blacklisted, and he is wasting his time. Kowakian 22 00:58, 1 September 2006 (UTC)


 * Can you give me more details please? What wiki is this on, and what is happening? You are right that "crumb" is blacklisted on Wikia. -- sannse (talk)
 * This is something which happened on Wookieepedia last night: I suspect if you do a checkuser, you'll find that Kowakian 22 is using an IP address similar to some of the users on Wookieepedia's recent blocks. Some of them are Crumb usernames, which had been preemptively blocked but came back to edit their user talk pages.  Some of our admins blocked them just in case.  We can give more details over there if you want. &mdash;Silly Dan (talk) 12:41, 1 September 2006 (UTC)

sysop
hello. please desysop me at ZelDelet


 * Hello, What's the problem? Is there anything I can help with? -- sannse (talk) 07:25, 1 September 2006 (UTC)
 * I can't cooperate with User:szoferka :( ZelDelet
 * Sure he can't. He is inactive since June 18, also the voting has start few days ago. And last, but not least, he made there 48 edits in half year period. Szoferka 11:07, 1 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Fron what I can understand, the vote is only about bureaucrat rights? And the concern seems to be about inactivity.  So, ZelDelet, it looks to me as though there is room to talk about this: to agree to be more active, and to keep your sysop rights.  Of course, if you are sure you want them removed, then I will do so. -- sannse (talk) 11:34, 1 September 2006 (UTC)

Bot Flag
Hi, you mentioned that there is such a thing as a "bot flag" to hide bot edits so they don't flood the Recent Changes. I'm interested in getting one of those. I switched all the sidebar tables on Wiki 24 to templates, and since we use sidebars on some 800 pages, my husband wrote a couple of programs to convert the pages and then upload them to the site. We've already done episodes and actors this way, so now we just need to do the much larger category of characters (500+ pages). Please advise on my Wiki 24 talk page. Thank you! --StBacchus 05:25, 4 September 2006 (UTC)


 * repy at Wiki24 -- sannse (talk) 08:22, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

StargateWars Wikia
Hi there. Just writing to thank you for your work in setting up the StargateWars Wikia. I saw the edit history and noticed you did the work. :-)

Thanks again,

 * No problem! -- sannse (talk) 09:01, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

RSS Feed
Sannse, I really see that changes in Side Bar on tools section, and I know that even me cannot change it, must be some admins trying something new. It displays RSS and Atom Feed For a while but now it's gone again,.... and to tell you the truth,.. the feed works.

I like the idea of RSS Feeds, and quite dissapointed when I see it gone again,... I think it should be put into consideration of adding RSS Feed to the Side bar.

Thank you, Agus_elex_2006

PS: Oh, I have filed the "bug" report in http://bug.wikia.com just like GreenReaper advised me. But bug or not, I really like the idea. Please conside it.


 * Hi Agus, are you sure you weren't looking at recent changes when you saw the RSS feed link? That's always there, and does work well.  There is also a rss feeds available for Special:newpages, but not yet for changes to a single article. -- sannse (talk) 08:21, 5 September 2006 (UTC)

Gaiapedia (Gaia Wiki)
sannse, you said that you could give me bureaucrat status on the wikia I administrate at any time I need it. Well, I've got A bot prorject finaly underway (There are to many major repetative things to fix by hand on that wiki) So I intend to give one of my 2 bots sysop status myself, and I also have a possible linking with another wiki, so I would also like bureaucrat status in the case that I may possibly give sysop status to the administrator of the other wiki.

Also, since makebot isn't installed on wikis I need the two accounts on my wiki to be given Bot status (Don't worry, I don't intend to run them unsupervised) the two are GaiaBot and GaiaBotSys (I wish interwiki linking was working) dantman 07:06, 5 September 2006 (UTC)


 * Hi dantman. It was Splarka you were talking to about this, I've pointed him towards this message.  Interwiki linking does work, from central you use w:c:wikiname:article name .  Outside of central, you expand thw w to wikia, so it would be wikia:c:wikiname:article name -- sannse (talk) 08:13, 5 September 2006 (UTC)


 * Damn... your names are to similar, sorry. I read everything about interwiki linking there is arround, but none of the methods work from the central wiki, I'm sure w:c:wikiname:article name works from projects. But from central I can only get wikiname to link to the main page, nothing else works on central.

our code is "gaia":
 * wikisite:gaia:2004 wikisite:gaia:2004
 * w:c:gaia:2004 w:c:gaia:2004
 * Wikia:gaia:2004 Wikia:gaia:2004
 * Wikia:c:gaia:2004 Wikia:c:gaia:2004
 * wikicities:gaia:2004 wikicities:gaia:2004
 * wikicities:c:gaia:2004 wikicities:c:gaia:2004
 * c:gaia:2004 c:gaia:2004

One of those should link to http://gaia.wikia.com/wiki/2004 but none of them work.

While we're on the subject on interwiki linking, how would I get a external wiki onto the list. We are possibly linking to another wiki about the same site but I have a stong feeling that the porject is not on the map because it's a privately made one. http://www.gaiacast.com/wiki/index.php/Plotwiki

dantman 08:32, 5 September 2006 (UTC)


 * The second link down, w:c:gaia:2004, works just fine for me. What page do you get to with that?


 * On external wikis, we have an interwiki map that we can add to. That will make the link work on all Wikia wikis.  The page is at Interwiki map.  Just give me the interwiki name you want, and I can add it -- sannse (talk) 08:49, 5 September 2006 (UTC)


 * Whoa, sorry. I have been checking so many different possible links so I have been using the url in the LL of my browser when I hover over that link you gave it gave me http://www.wikicities.com/wiki/c:gaia:2004, but when I clicked on it it worked. Ok, well the wiki we are possibly merging with is called the "Plotwiki" at the URL " http://www.gaiacast.com/wiki/index.php/ " so for when the community gets back on the final decission (I have a strong feeling they will agree with me...) we should be able to link with Plotwiki:ArticleName (Plotwiki:ArticleName) and I have a feeling that Plotwiki is not already in the interwiki map, and a google search finds no other wikis with that name (Note that "http://gaiaonline.pbwiki.com/" is actualy the old URL for the Plotwiki, not another wiki) so I'm sure that "Plotwiki" should work out good as the Prefix. dantman 09:03, 5 September 2006 (UTC)


 * OK, I'll sort this out later today. The update script may not run for a while, but when it does, links will work -- sannse (talk) 09:16, 5 September 2006 (UTC)


 * Ok, thanks. I don't realy need it at the moment, so it should be finished by the time the community has made a decission on how to do it all. Now I'll just wait for Sannse's reply on our bot topic, and Angela on the Namespaces. dantman 09:24, 5 September 2006 (UTC)


 * You mean Splarka ;) he's replied on your Gaia talk page -- sannse (talk) 09:27, 5 September 2006 (UTC)


 * Arg, these names are killing me. 2 Admins with names identical at a glance. Actualy, he has replyed, and I have been made a buerocrat, but we are prety much discussing Bots, because I have a point in the future where I will need a bot with sysop cababilitys. I put the long reason on his talkpage. dantman 09:40, 5 September 2006 (UTC)
