Copyright Issue
Hi Angela, a student of mine made some logos for use by a campus organization and uploaded them to the ecology wikia as a convenient way for folks to vote. It turns out that they violate Saint Michael's College trademarks in two instances: I have requested through your copyright person on behalf of the college that they be removed but to no avail. SO, any chance of having them removed? I don't have the access to delete them. Feel free to contact me by email: dmccabe@smcvt.edu Declan 03:08, 23 February 2008 (UTC)

Wiki Url
Hi, thanks for the approval of the Materia Magica Wiki.

However I have some issues regarding the site url. The problem is that using materiamagica.wikia.com would be too long and inconvenient. I suggested alyria.wikia.com initially when i requested the wiki, but for some reason it was not used. I would appreciate if I could know why it cannot be used. If alyria.wikia.com is really impossible, then I would still suggest an alternative like mm.wikia.com. (Which I don't know if it meets the requirements?)

Anyway, thanks for you time

Ice Hockey Wiki and NHL Wiki
Hi Angela,

we at the ice hockey wiki have noticed that the NHL wiki is now being edited very sporadically by a single user. Considering our wiki covers that subject and has a much broader scope, we (the admins of IHW) would like to ask you if it would be possible to merge the NHL wiki into ours. We think both projects would benefit from this move, be it by growth in size, quality and active users. Do you think that move would be possible? Please answer me here: http://icehockey.wikia.com/wiki/User_talk:Yannzgob --Yannzgob 00:55, 27 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Hi again Angela,

the NHL wikia side has agreed for the merger :) So when you have some free time, you can begin transferring their wiki into the Ice Hockey Wiki. Thank you very much --Yannzgob 15:48, 5 March 2008 (UTC)


 * The merge is now done. Angela (talk)

Pokemon wiki
Recently the wiki has been receiving a lot of vandalism and currently there are no active admins so they have to wait around for a janitor to come by and clean up the mess. User:MarioGalaxy2433g5 has been helpful on the wiki by reverting vandalism and contacting janitors and is active on the wiki in general so I recommend making him an admin. Would you please consider it. Thank you very much.--Rayman254 00:22, 28 February 2008 (UTC)


 * MarioGalaxy2433g5 was already made an admin by Phil.e. in January. Angela (talk)

LocalSettings.php for Custom Bionicles
Hi Angela,

Can you please change the logo for Custom Bionicles to please at LocalSettings.php?Thanks,--The Oracle23 00:41, 28 February 2008 (UTC)


 * The image just needs to be renamed Image:Wiki.png (lower case png) and it will work. However, it needs to be no larger than 150px square. Angela (talk)

Cherub admin
Hello,

I am Darth tom  Chit 'n' Chat 17:23, 28 February 2008 (UTC), and I am interested in becoming an administrator on the Cherub wiki, as there are no active administrators. How do I go about doing this? Thanks. Darth tom Chit 'n' Chat 17:23, 28 February 2008 (UTC)


 * You're now an admin. Angela (talk)

No admins on LBT Wiki
Hello, I am one of the few registered users on the Land Before Time Wiki. The founder and only Sysop of the Wiki has been AWOL since May 2007, and as a result me and the other users have had few ways of fighting vandalism effectively. I would like to request that my account, User: 4myself4, and if possible, User:76.179.50.96 be granted administrative powers. Aabicus 06:54, 2 March 2008 (UTC)


 * sannse has done this. Angela (talk)

Thefreedomencyclopedia
hello Angela my name is donald landryII from maine i have requested a new wiki about a free encyclopedia. I hope people would take the time to consider accepting this wiki. I have tried and tried to establish my own wiki and it has not worked i have tried many other websites but no luck i hope here people will join the wiki and make it into something special thank you Angela for taking the time to read. Don LandryII --Saugusmassa 15:45, 2 March 2008 (UTC)

changes
Hi Angela,

Is there a way to get automatically informed of any changes of functions (new functions, functions which were deleted, ...) and communications-tools (forum, chat etc)? Its quite difficult to get an overview of the immense possibilities to communicate or participate in Wikia Search and to be up to date of any changes.

Thanks, Stefan

Bot
Just wondering: Is there a reason why local bureaucrats cannot grant and remove bot flags? I don't need it done, just asking. Thanks. DragonBallZ 02:20, 4 March 2008 (UTC)


 * I think this was just to prevent abuse since every wiki founder is automatically a bureaucrat, and it's better for someone else to check a bot is approved before adding a flag. Angela (talk)

 * Yes, I know. That's the problem with non-Wikia-hosted wikis - they get bugs and there are not 2 dozen engineers waiting to fix them. ;) Angela (talk)

IRC
Is there anyway to retrieve a lost password on irc? I wasn't capable of being on for months and subsequently forgot about it.

Username filter
Would it be possible to install some sort of username blacklist or something? We are getting quite a lot of accounts being created with very inappropriate usernames. While this would normally not be an issue as the New User Log extension isn't installed, Recentchanges on Gaming is not very work-safe because of it. --Skizzerz talk 03:52, 7 March 2008 (UTC)


 * There is a blacklist for repeat spammers, but not for users who have only created accounts. Once the gaming wiki is moved to the regular Wikia codebase, this won't be a problem since not all users are displayed in Special:Listusers. Angela (talk)

About Manticore
He's wreaking havoc on the RuneScape Wikia. Someone created a nonsense page on it called "Light bow". The page is based on an already existent item called the Dark Bow. The company who created RuneScape made a sketch of the Dark Bow, colored white. So the person who made the article decided to make a nonsense page about the white version which is just a sketch.

I labelled it with the speedy deletion tag, and Manticore blocked me and claimed I was "vandalizing". Something has to be done. 67.68.37.7 15:26, 7 March 2008 (UTC)

Have you read about my problems with the spam system?
Did you read Forum:Can't create page on Wiki I admin because it looked like Spam? Sysops should be able to create any page bypassing the spam filter as needed. Such pages might be valid. Will (Talk - contribs) 01:08, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
 * It appears that what blocked my edit was, get this, the name of the page. Real stupid. Will (Talk - contribs) 01:26, 8 March 2008 (UTC)

Never mind. Fixed it. Will (Talk - contribs) 02:15, 8 March 2008 (UTC)

Interwiki Links
Hi Angela,

It seems that recently interwiki links have stopped working.When I type ,it leads me to a wiki about Global Warming.When I try an irregular name(such as Metru Nui,etc.) under  ,it says that it is an invalid wiki,although it does exist.

Please get back to me ASAP on my talk on Custom Bionicles.

Thanks,

--The Oracle23 03:00, 8 March 2008 (UTC)


 * This is also effecting all the Wikia interwiki links that Wikipedia is using. -- Ned Scott 07:39, 9 March 2008 (UTC)


 * It seems to have been fixed now. -- Ned Scott 23:02, 10 March 2008 (UTC)


 * Odd. I'm not sure what caused that, but Wikia:c:bionicle:Earth is now working correctly. Angela (talk)

Ghostbusters Wiki
Hey, I've recently stumbled upon an empty, abandoned wiki. I've been editing it heavily over the past few days and was wondering if I could be made an admin? It's abandoned, but I've recruited a couple of friends to help out. Just trying to figure out how to get an admin on there that can help with deletions, etc. --TrumpetManLA 22:35, 13 March 2008 (UTC)
