Theatre.wikia.com
Thank you for your note left in theatre.wikia.com

Yes, I would be interested in being an administrator, not for "theatre" but for "musical theatre", because my expertise and interest is limited to musical theatre. When I applied for a wikia group, I asked for "musical theatre", but was directed to "theatre", and told to start a category "musical theatre" under "theatre". I am happy for this to continue, although my preference is to have a separate site dedicated to "musical theatre". Would this be possible? Thank you, Music 15:42, 16 January 2007 (UTC)
 * I'll discuss this with the others of the team and leave you a note then. Maybe Angela or Sannse know more about this :-) --rieke 01:50, 22 January 2007 (UTC)

Hi Rieke,

I am writing to inform you that after quite a long time, Marcus Hanson (Marcus Han), the originator of theatre.wikia.com has finally given me the following reply:

Feb 13, 2007 10:12 AM Re: Theatre.wikia.com

Hi Ken, Due to many complications, I am not able to continue with theatre.wikia.com, so if you would let me know what is needed for me to do, if anything, I would like to let others take the lead. Thanks, Marcus"

Therefore, Rieke, I wonder if you would allow me to be one of the administrators for theatre.wikia.com?

Also, I would like to ask if it were possible to have "musical theatre" separated from "theatre". You can see that 99% of the entries for theatre.wikia.com are about musical theatre.

Finally, I would like to ask why Google cannot search the entries inside theatre.wikia.com?

 * Hi Music, I've made you admin and bureaucrat on theatre.wikia now, and noted the "adoption" on Theatre. So you can adapt the wiki in many ways now (see the Administrators' how-to guide for help), and you are also able now to grant admin rights to other interested users (e.g. Auspuppetguy) by going to Special:Makesysop on the wiki. We might start a musical theatre wiki in addition soon … still in discussion. Greetings --rieke 13:03, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

Thanks, Rieke! And cheers! 218.186.10.12 13:15, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

Micronations wiki
Hi again, Rieke!

Now that Hikipedia thing is cleared out, I've got another request for you: can you make me an admin of Finnish Micronations Wikia, Mikropedia? It seems that the creator of that Wikia, Icepenguin (Jääpingviini in Finnish and as an user of Fi-Wikipedia), abandoned that Wikia. I sent him an e-mail, but I think that was pretty useless since his last contribution to Finnish Wikipedia was on 15th of December, 2006.

It seems to be a Wikia about a good subject. It just hasn't gotten the attention it needed. I've already added a link to the "Mikrovaltio" (Micronation) page of Finnish Wikipedia. :)

Thanks in advance! --Jack Phoenix (Contact) 20:35, 30 January 2007 (UTC)

Frage!
Ich wollte eine Test-Wiki gestalten. Ich habe eine Website über Star Wars die eher zum Spaß dient als das sie eine große Community ist. Trotzdem würde ich gerne eine Art Star Wars Lexikon darauf betreiben. Ich habe auch schon User gefunden die mir dabei helfen würden. Mir ist klar das es mit der Anzahl an Member kaum an Jedipedia oder ähnliches herankommen wird. Und ganau da liegt mein Problem. Ich kann nämlich alle diese "Fragen" mit "ja" beantworten. Doch zum Thema Star Wars gibt es bereits eine sehr große Wiki-Seite. Das Projekt gilt eher dem Spaß als einem wirklichen Ziel. Nun eben ist meine Frage ob ich trotzdem eine Mini-Wiki erstellen kann.

Es wäre außerdem gut wenn die Antwort an maro1993 /an/ gmx.de geschickt werden würde! Danke!

bug
A database query syntax error has occurred. This may indicate a bug in the software. The last attempted database query was: (SQL query hidden) from within function "Article::insertOn". MySQL returned error "1062: Duplicate entry '6-Rizzo.jpg' for key 2 (216.224.121.137)". -- Muppets101 21:14, 5 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Hi Muppets101, where did you get this error? Is this still an issue? --rieke 13:11, 7 February 2007 (UTC)

Seiten definitiv löschen
Hallo Rieke Ich habe mit "zwei Mal eckige Klammer 'xy' zwei Mal eckige Klammer" eine neue Seite erstellt, diese dann mit Inhalt gefüllt und später - wegen Nichtgebrauchs - wieder gelöscht. Nun stelle ich fest, dass es die Seite "xy" weithin gibt und demzufolge im "Mini Wikia" unter "Alle Seiten (A-Z)" erscheint. Wie können solche Seiten definitiv gelöscht werden? Besten Dank für Deine Antwort. NOllUX 14:00, 14 February 2007 (UTC)


 * Hallo, löschen können Administratoren. Du kannst im Mini-Wikia einfach  in die jeweiligen Seiten schreiben. --rieke 14:32, 14 February 2007 (UTC)

Why is Google unable to search articles inside Wikia.com?
Hi Rieke,

I have asked this question in another posting to you, but I thought it deserved a separate entry. I note that this question has also been asked in the wikia forums, but no satisfactory answer has been given.

Why is Google unable to search for articles within wikia.com?

What can we do to enable our articles to become searchable?

Thanks, Music 13:02, 21 February 2007 (UTC) 21 Feb 2007


 * Hm, this link should work in general. Normally, very new articles need some time (2-3 weeks) to get indexed by google (often longer by other search engines).
 * But the main reason for search engines not finding an article is, that the article is not linked to from anywhere (search robots are following links, but ignore special pages like Recentchanges or Allpages). Internal links within the wiki (between articles) are very important therefore. You can use Special:Lonelypages on every wiki to find such "orphaned pages". So the easiest way to make most articles on theatre.wikia browsable by search engines is to create a page where you list all existing articles, maybe sorted by genre, by year or author, or so (this page should be linked from the Main Page) - the better way would be to work on more links between articles. I hope this helps :-) --rieke 13:03, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
