Sockpuppet
On the wiki I recently founded, I created a sock puppet to test admin privilages. It is an admin and a bureacrat. Should I not have created him? Is this ok? Howabout1 20:08, 23 Jul 2005 (UTC)

Another question. On en B-crats can now change usernames and attribution for an edit. Can I do that on a wikicity? Howabout1 01:05, 24 Jul 2005 (UTC)


 * I'll reply at w:c:avatar:User talk:Howabout1. Angela (talk) 03:35, 24 Jul 2005 (UTC)

Ok. You can desysop him. Can I still keep it for any other testing I want to do? Howabout1 04:03, 24 Jul 2005 (UTC)

Thanks. One other new-wiki question. How do I make a picture a logo. On create a new wiki it says just making it wiki.jpg is enough, I did that, but it isn't my logo. Thanks a lot for your time, you must be busy with all the founders asking you questions, running wikia, and being on the wikimedia board (I voted for you). Howabout1 15:41, 24 Jul 2005 (UTC)

Ok. How do I make it png, I'm not good with that kind of thing. As for the logo, it is a screenshot curtesey of a fansite. It says there that it may be used so long as credit is given to the site. I use a lot of material from that site, so I gave it credit on Avatar Wiki:Copyright, as well as on several pages. Howabout1 03:29, 25 Jul 2005 (UTC)

Sorry, you seem to have already done that. How do I make it the old picture again? Howabout1 03:30, 25 Jul 2005 (UTC)


 * replied at User talk:Howabout1


 * Thanks. I meant the picture I originally uploaded. When I asked, wiki.png was still the wikicities logo. Everything is fine now. Thanks again for your help. Howabout1 14:13, 29 Jul 2005 (UTC)

interlanguage for conlang(s)
Hi, Angela.

I am interested in addng interlanguage support to the conlang wikicity... particularly I am interested in adding interlanguage support for any variety of new languages, not just Mediawiki supported languages.

Alternatively I might ask for a new wikicity for encyclopedias writen in conlangs with the requested features.

How should I proceed?

 * replied at conlang:User talk:Chlewey


 * Well, for interlanguage support I mean that I want to create namespaces that behave like the language interwikis in Wikipedia or the C wikicity. Just that they are languages that would not be used outside a particular wikicity.
 * Anyhow, where can I get documentation on language.php files?
 * How easily can new languages, that are uninteresting for the whole mediawiki community, be introduced?

adding an admin to a wikicity
Dear Angela,

How do I give an user admin privileges to a wikicity of which I am an admin myself?

Thanks much

misc.
Hi Angela,

Just want to ask if Kate's tool has a wikicities version. And how can I request for adminship on my Wiki, if ever I want to become one? Do I have to apply here at Central? Chosen One 18:58, 27 Jul 2005 (UTC)


 * replied at w:c:harrypotter:User talk:Chosen One


 * Yeah, I just wanted to find out how many edits I wanted, but obviously it only works for Wikipedia. Concerning adminship, I'm not yet that interested in becoming an admin, but we're thinking of opening the Wiki to the public (via Mugglenet et al.), and it might eventually be necessary to have more than one absentee admin. I don't have any experience yet. Do you think it's a good idea to try it out there or should I get some experience on WP first? Thanks a lot. ;)    09:50, 29 Jul 2005 (UTC)

our nomic bank
Hi there! did you change you mind? Could you please host our nomic bank here? By the way I cannot access wikipedia. do you know whats happening there? thnx BoW Bank 07:56, 28 Jul 2005 (UTC)


 * I've not changed my mind. You can't access Wikipedia because you're banned there. Please stop trying to edit Wikipedia. There are many alternative wiki hosts where you can put your content. See the Wikibooks list of hosts I gave you before. Angela (talk) 05:34, 29 Jul 2005 (UTC)
 * You said: "you're banned there, go away!". Could you please search a little bit a discover WHY I was banned? I was banned because they accused me of beeing another banned user. You dont seem to care about the reason I was banned, and whether this was fair on unfair, dont you? You are just saying "you are banned" and then your conscience is clear. Are you always doing what they told you to do, without judging whether your action is fair or unfair? BoW Bank 13:10, 29 Jul 2005 (UTC)


 * Whether or not you're the banned user Iasson, you share his IP and editing style. Goodbye. Angela (talk) 13:30, 29 Jul 2005 (UTC)
 * For the last time. I am not Iasson. I am not willy on wheels. I am not sharing anyones IP or editing style. I dont understand whats happening and why you behave like that, I think its a misunderstanding. I am not going to insist anymore. Goodbye and good luck, and try not to be so suspicious next time.

MiniWiki became MaxiWiki
Hi Angela,

I have a question about moving MiniWiki content.

I have applied for a new Wikicity (TsukubaWiki) and I started working on it in MiniWikis. I originally intended to only put up three or four pages, but the project has kind of blossomed (quite unexpectedly) and now we already have over 200 pages. When (and if) we get approval for the official TsukubaWiki, will it be possible to move all the pages at once (and automatically) to the official location?

I'm sorry if this is not the right place for this question. If that is the case, please let me know where I should post it.

Thank you!

 * The new wiki is at w:c:tsukuba. Good luck with it. :) Angela (talk) 09:57, 3 Aug 2005 (UTC)

Hi Angela. Thank you for setting up the new Tsukuba Wiki. We have moved all of the content over to the official page now. Please feel free to delete any TsukubaWiki content that remains on scratchpad. All pages have the category "TsukubaWiki", in case that helps. If I can do anything to help erase the content from the scratchpad, please let me know.

If possible, I would like this content to be removed so it doesn't conflict with the information in the new page. If there is no way for you to do it automatically, I can go through and erase the content of each page manually. Please advise.

Thanks!

-- Shaney 15:43, 4 Aug 2005 (UTC)


 * Don't worry. I'll delete the pages (probably when I am back home next week) if another Scratchpad admin doesn't get to it first. User:Angela 13:00, 6 Aug 2005 (UTC)

unnecessary page protection
Angela,

Sorry about placing unnecessary page protection on the database management Wiki topic. I have removed the protections. Obviously, I'm new at this and am learning as I go. Thanks. Jay L.
