A problem with a User
Hello, Sannse! There is a user on this wiki (which really needs to be deleted anyways) who really needs to be blocked. I am an admin there, and the user has forgotten his password (the user is Jeenking, by the way) so I have blocked him temporarily, but as soon as he remembers his password, he will be able to overrule me (he is the creator of the wiki; in other words, he can overrule and demote me before I can block him again). This has been a touchy subject with the members of the "real" Avatar Wiki for a while, and if I block him, that will be the end of that. So, is there any way that you can help me? Any help is really appreciated. Thank you! MR tG


 * This would be best sent to Special:Contact, as you'll get a faster response there.

Hi
We need your help with the TDWiki. An former B-Crat promoted herself without any contact, blocked an admin, un-blocked a user, and demoted herself. Please come to the Total Drama Wiki's IRC room at #WIKIA-TDWIKI. Thank You. Mikeyy

How do you promote yourself?

Picture Glitch is Back
I saw the new wordmark on Ben 10 Planet, and thought it was cool. I asked its creator if he could make another for the fan fiction site. When he did, I set it as the wordmark, but it won't show up. I think I reported this glitch before, but I thought it went away. What's wrong?

 * Usually, when there is a delay in images showing up, it means that one of the servers is being slow to pick up on the new version. That usually corrects itself after a while (or our techy guys give them a thump and they get corrected that way). We are always improving and building the system to make it less likely this happens, but then we are always growing which makes it more likely :) So sorry for the problem, and if you see it again try giving it a while and it should clear -- sannse http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb32675/wikia/images/e/e9/WikiaStaff.png (help forum | blog) 04:54, May 5, 2011 (UTC)

MediaWiki 1.16.4

 * That's a server-side glitch. Wikia is updating to MediaWiki 1.16.4, and they must have made a mistake somewhere. Nothing you can do about it, best to just wait it out.

Set up the Wiki
I tried to edit on Ben 10 Fan Fiction. When I clicked submit, the page turned white, and a message saying "Set up the wiki first" showed up with the MediaWiki logo. What's that for? Set up the wiki was a link, but it only went to a nonexistent page with a bunch of coding behind the page title. Is this a glitch or something?

Voting Problem
On Ben 10 Fan Fiction, there's a forum to nominate each month's featured series. A good user there, Brianultimatedragon, nominated his series, Question For Ben 10. But one IP voted twice, and it seems Brian double-voted with his IP so his series would win. I would like you to just check whether or not the IP there is Brian's. If it is, I will delete the votes and let Brian off with a warning (this time only). Thanks in advance.

Charmed Wiki Block
Good Afternoon, sorry to bother you but today I was unblocked from Charned Wiki and I added a category to an article. The article was quickly reverted by an admin, Buffymybasset. I left a message saying the decision whether or not a category should be deleted should be left up to the bureaucrats of the wiki. She then blocked me again for a year. This block is completely unjustifiable. She said wikia staff gave her permission to block me indefinately. Is this true? Can you please unblock me? Buffymybasset is a new admin to the wiki and maybe she doesn't know the policies of Charmed Wiki but a policy we have is no user with over 1,000 edits can be blocked without a vote; I have nearly 15,000 edits. She also came on my wiki that I created and threatened me a couple weeks ago saying she would have her friends at wikia support block me globally from wikia if I disagree with her, again, on my personal wiki - Charmed Legacy. Can you please also restore my bureaucrat status on my wiki CharmedLegacy.wikia.com? Thanks! HalliwellManorAkaDsc385 22:49, May 6, 2011 (UTC)


 * You should send this to Special:Contact, you'll get a faster response there. It's also worth noting that staff do not directly "give permission" to people to block for any period of time - it's up to the discretion of the admin. Staff only globally block someone if they have a legal reason or a moral reason; for example, staff are legally obligated by US law to globally block users they know to be under the age of 13.

DMSwordmaster, an user
DMS:DMSwordmaster

DMS take too mush the power on Fan-Ball wiki for this reason: I am also a user from that wiki, and I know what have happened there. In that wiki there's a "Pet Arena", where users' pets have battles. Poisonshot's Pet was accused of being overpowered, and DMSwordsmaster(DMS), one of the admins there, used the so called "Money Shreader" to kill Poisonshot's Pet. However, Poisonshot later said that DMS was abusing his power and protested for that. Later, DMS write this in Poisonshot's talk page (Diff: ) and another admin blocked Poisonshot for this. DMS then quickly increased Poisonshot's Block time Also, at 25 April, Poisonshot also protested that DMS was cheating at the arena in another admin's talk page (exactly the one who blocked him first). But DMS removed Poisonshot's comment without reason after a few hours. I feel that this admin has been abusing his power, so I request some actions on him.67.70.100.212 13:55, May 7, 2011 (UTC)

I have a question
I have a question who is the creator of wikia.

TheBen10Mazter


 * User:Jimbo Wales and User:Angela--

Quick (Ok, not so quick) Question
Hi Sannse, I hope you don't mind my contacting you here, via your talk page. I'd have used email, but that wasn't an option. I spoke to JoePlay unofficially about this, and he recommended bringing it to you. First off, good call on the move to SanFran. I'm actually just south of you in Santa Clara, right over by San Jose.

Now, to the crux of the matter: So we at the Mass Effect Wiki have this editor (Zulu DFA) who posted here briefly earlier this year. Unfortunately, he chose to behave in disruptive behavior (edit warring and so forth), which led to a temporary ban. This ban expired some time ago, but the editor in question has not returned. Rather, he has created a new wiki on the same topic as ours, found here. Now, I'm well aware that it's permissible to have multiple wikis covering the same topic. The folks here get along just fine with the Mass Effect Fan Fiction Wiki, and I'm actually a Bureaucrat at another wiki which does cover the same topic as a preexisting wiki. However, while we cover the same topic, all our content is original. All of our articles were written by our editors, with none being copied from the other wiki.

On the other hand, this new "Mass Effect Wiki Comprehensive Edition" copies all its articles directly from us. This brings up a few issues. Firstly is attribution. Though they have a disclaimer on their main page, they have thus far refused to properly attribute the articles, images, templates, and so forth taken from our wiki. A Wikia staffer has warned them that this is not the proper way to do things, and they've said they'll fix it, but thus far, they seem to still be importing images and such from us without proper attribution. The other issue is the matter of duplication. Wikia policy states that "Wikis which have no content, or remain inactive, or have a large overlap with another Wikia may be merged with another project, locked from editing, or closed completely." In this case, 99% of their wiki is a verbatim copy of ours, down to the templates and images in the articles. This would seem to constitute a "large overlap with another Wikia" (namely ours).

I'm not agitating for any particular course of action here (I'm not frothing out the mouth yelling "CLOSE THEM DOWN!" or anything), but it does bother me (and many members of the community at the Mass Effect Wikia) that this new wiki, founded by denigrators of our wiki and those who edit here (the forum has since been deleted, but they said some rather nasty things about the community in a BioWare Social Network forum that the moderators deleted due to the content) can simply come in, copy our entire wiki, slap their label on it, and call it theirs, particularly after the four years of hard work by untold numbers of people who worked to make the Mass Effect Wiki what it is today, a wiki that even the creators of the games call a phenomenal source of information. As such, I'm bringing this to your attention. Thanks for taking the time to wade through this missive, and thanks for your consideration! Regards, SpartHawg948 23:11, May 12, 2011 (UTC)


 * Hi, I know Brandon has been talking to various people on both wikis about this over the last weeks... hopefully he has been able to help (or at least, to speak for the benefits of peaceful co-existence :) -- sannse http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb32675/wikia/images/e/e9/WikiaStaff.png (help forum | blog) 02:40, May 25, 2011 (UTC)

 * You were blocked by Charitwo. You may need to ask him for the reason. The kicking/blocking part of chat is very limited at the moment, so the block might not necessarily match the offence. Also, Charitwo is unable to remove blocks (unless that's been changed), so someone like Sannse will need to remove it, assuming an unblock is in order. -- Deltaneos (talk) 13:53, May 13, 2011 (UTC)

 * I don't know. I wasn't there so I can't even guess. That's why it's recommended that you ask Charitwo himself. You've been pretty calm about the block so far, which is good. It's important that you remain calm even if you disagree with the reason he gives. You've a better chance of being unblocked this way. -- Deltaneos (talk) 23:46, May 13, 2011 (UTC)


 * You were blocked for trolling, a couple users had approached me with complaints about you because I was the only mod around. I wasn't in the chat at the time so I only saw limited scrollback which wasn't good enough to act, so I stuck around for a while and agreed that you were being disruptive. -- 00:00, May 14, 2011 (UTC)

What is trolling?

Trolling is pretty much when somebody posts something contraversial/annoying on purpose to make other people angry... ask Chari to unblock yourself:)

This wiki
I think that wiki should be deleted. The Wiki is about the history of the life of the founder of the wiki. Nobody except him would actually edit there, since of course, it's a wiki about himself. I used to tell the people in the PvZ Character Creator Wiki not to be too egocentric. If he had a wiki about himself, then everybody in the wiki should have a wiki about themselves, which would be too much for all of you to handle (2 mil+ users, right?). Sorry about my unclear explanation. I'm not good with explanations, ever since I was a child. -- RG 3000  14:44, May 13, 2011 (UTC)


 * Wikia rarely deletes wikis, and I don't think this falls under the category of something they'd delete. But if it does, staff would probably prefer to hear about it from Special:Contact.
 * Monchoman is right, this isn't something we'd delete. And if you'd like to make a wiki about yourself, you are very welcome to do so :) -- sannse http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb32675/wikia/images/e/e9/WikiaStaff.png (help forum | blog) 02:43, May 25, 2011 (UTC)

Wiki Helper
Hi! Is Wikia looking to employ (volunteering) Helpers in India? If so, I live in India and can I be promoted to one? And how much edits do you need? Surely the least amount of edits is 200 as Dopp was promoted with such low edits!--Arceus The God of Pokemon 15:36, May 13, 2011 (UTC)

P.S: I do not wish to be paid, I just wanna volunteer. I will not accept payment. Thank you. P.P.S: Its O.K. if Wikia is not gonna open Wiki Employment in India or that max. amount of Helpers allowed in a Wiki has been reached.


 * Helpers and staff have no edit requirements, as they are usually not promoted from regular users (as far as I know). You can see available jobs at http://www.wikia.com/hiring. Be aware that these are jobs, and require you to go through a job interview process.
 * I don't see any employment in India. Why's that? Arceus The God of Pokemon 11:51, May 19, 2011 (UTC)


 * They may not need any new helpers in India. You can ask via Special:Contact, I'm sure staff would be glad to tell you.

I'm contacting you about a dispute
Hi. I would like you to look at a situation on the Degrassi Wiki. It involves 3 users and your colleague Dopp. It's been going on for a while, but i'll try to keep it to the basic facts. The heart of the dispute is between Vanessa Brandon and Lupojohn. They have been fighting for a long time. It originated on Chatzy, but Vanessa carried it over to the Degrassi Wiki. He has made several threats to Lupojohn, including trying to get him fired from his job at PetSmart, putting up false information on his Profile page, such as being threatened with a shotgun, claims of being stalked on Twitter, claiming Lupojohn, Jayswife and myself were all the same person when he has no proof of that, and showing up at his house. In the process, he also had phone conversations they had(which Lupojohn made in an attempt to end the dispute offline) recorded, linked to his YouTube account, and put up on the Degrassi Wiki. He also constantly uses vulgar language, has had disputes with other users, and has been banned before. In fact, about two or three weeks ago, he got banned for a year(they're both gone till next May now), while Lupojohn was not banned, and has never been banned before this. Some users pressured the administrator who banned him to unban him, and she listened, and unbanned him. Her username is ~holiday. After this occurred, Lupojohn got a one-week ban. During this time, his pregnant fiance, Jayswife, was on the Degrassi Wiki(she is the 3rd user i'm talking about). Vanessa(he's a guy) made trouble for her, too, by insulting her, which resulted in her talking back, and while she probably should have not responded, she understandably was not going to just let him say things to her. In the process of all of this happening, Lupojohn's one week ban ended. He returned to a very quiet and peaceful Monday, his first day back. Yesterday, however, Vanessa made another account in an attempt to get Lupojohn blocked, and he was successful. The account was DroidX, and if you look at Dopp's Talk Page, you can see she may have had an idea of what was going on, based on her comment about him needing to get John banned. There is so much more, but these are the basics. I feel, as an observer on the Degrassi Wiki, and someone who cares about these sites, that Lupojohn should not be banned for a year. A month, maybe two, but not a year. Jayswife definitely should not have had her ban extended from one month to a year. Vanessa Brandon was banned for a year originally, so he deserves it. You should also look at their Logs and Back Logs on their Degrassi Wiki pages. These are dedicated users, all of them, but Vanessa went too far, in my opinion. I see you're catching up with responses, so if you can't or don't have the time to handle it, please send this to someone who can. If you do have time, please talk to ~holiday and Loveya, both Degrassi Wiki administrators, and Dopp, about this situation. Thank you, and respond when you can. MarissaDunn 16:13, May 25, 2011 (UTC)MarissaDunn


 * Dopp is attempting to handle this, currently - with situations like this, it's difficult to separate who's who and who's been doing what. This will probably take some time to resolve.

MarissaDunn, you are not an observer, this is one of several involved accounts that our logs show as coming from the same IP. The game playing has gone on long enough, and you are no longer welcome on Wikia. -- sannse http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb32675/wikia/images/e/e9/WikiaStaff.png (help forum | blog) 20:30, May 25, 2011 (UTC)

Wow, all I can say is that your logs must be wrong. Look at my IP when I left Dopp a message, and look at the IP on this message. Completely different. Considering this fact, and the fact that I can challenge the ban, since it says I can talk to the person who banned me, this is far from done. MarissaDunn also hacked my account at the time of these issues. Now, I can't finish a report I was doing for a college course at home. I created a Wiki for my assignment, but when Marissa hacked my account, she made it seem like it was me, when it wasn't. That's why i'm telling you all of this. 64.12.117.18 19:19, June 7, 2011 (UTC)Lupojohn

Closure
I would like to request a wiki closure. Although I didn't create it, the creator of Ben 10 Fan Fiction made Ben 10 Fan Fiction 2 because they thought it was too big. It was not, and the admins at the original (the creator is inactive) have decided they don't need it. What little pages were there were moved to the original, and it is ready for closure. In addition, you may want to merge the two. I cannot use the contact form because I don't have an e-mail address (this account was made for me by someone else, and the e-mail was his, so I blanked it). Thanks in advance.

Sockpuppet problem reviews: Tips!
Hey Sannse, hello! Songpedia had a recent problem with one person creating mutliple accounts and adding nonsense things to pages just to earn badges, the user stopped, but can you give me tips on preventing sockpuppets? Because you can't really control who creates accounts. --<span style="border:2px solid black; background-color:#dcdcdc; color:black; -moz-border-radius:8px 8px 8px 8px; -webkit-border-radius:8px 8px 8px 8px; -moz-box-shadow: 0.1em 0.1em 0.5em rgba(0,0,0,0.75); -webkit-box-shadow: 0.1em 0.1em 0.5em rgba(0,0,0,0.75);"> |  Nobody Cares |  Talk  •  SP  •  Contribs  | 09:31, June 4, 2011 (UTC)


 * It's something that is always hard to stop - and there are occasions when a sock account isn't a problem. For me, the key point is "is it being done to decieve or to cause damage to the community?". If someone just likes using different accounts for different wikis, or wants to change their name and move on from an old account, or is on a wiki where people use multiple accounts to roleplay... no problem! And I've also had times when I was pretty sure the account was a sock, but decided to let it be because the user wasn't causing more problems - I belive in second chances :) But where a second account is being used maliciously or still causing the problems that got a first account blocked... the basic rule is the same as for similar issues: revert, block, ignore.


 * It's important not to get into a mindset where you suspect everyone of being a sock - I've seen that happen... but you can often spot similarities in behaviour that give a clue. Then staff can help if you need to confirm that two accounts are being used by the same person, and can help with finding the IPs to block if auto-blocks aren't working well (usually because a person's ISP gives them a range of IPs) For simple vandalism or spam from sock accounts, the VSTF can also do checks. In extreme cases we can limit a wiki to only allow editing by people with a verified email address (although that only slows the sock-puppeteer, it doesn't stop them making new accounts).


 * Overall, by advice would be: deal with each as it comes up, keep the drama level as low as you can, and ask for staff help as you need it :) Hope that helps! -- sannse http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb32675/wikia/images/e/e9/WikiaStaff.png (help forum | blog) 22:06, June 12, 2011 (UTC)


 * Thanks, Sannse! That was helpful. It was five accounts with one person. Similarities I spotted all five accounts had the word "luigi" in them and the accounts added same messages on the vandalism, and the same purpose too. I blocked the extra accounts forever, gave the main account a warning for three reasons, first was for vandalism, second was for abusing the badge system, and the third was for suckpuppetry, and he stopped. And I've seen 7 different people with multiple accounts in the wiki, I trust 6 of them, and one of them is an admin, and the only one that I don't trust is the person that I talked to you about. I don't ussualy block extra accounts of people unless the account causes damage to the wiki and it's content or if it's used to cheat (for example, there is a consensus, the person can use the sockpuppets to vote multiple times). Again, thank for the tips and happy editing!

Help!!!
Help!!!. The admins of FanBall wiki are soo bad (specially DMSwordmaster). They use their admin powers to block everyone for little mistakes. They banned me for just a vedio I made ( this vedio). It maybe a little bad. Because I am new to making vedios. DMSwordmaster told me to delete the vedio but I don't know how to delete a vedio. So I renamed the vedio with deleted. He banned me again. 06:38, June 6, 2011 (UTC)


 * Hi, you need to work this out with the admin. I'm most cases, it's up to the admin who they ban and why, staff try not to interfere with that. I'd suggest you talk to the admin, or to other admins there, or find another wiki to edit. good luck -- sannse http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb32675/wikia/images/e/e9/WikiaStaff.png (help forum | blog) 22:13, June 12, 2011 (UTC)

Possibly Problematic Volunteer
Hello Sannse!

I'd like to let you, and the rest the Wikia staff here on Community Central know about an apparant problem user here on this wiki. His user name is Charitwo, and he a part of the Volunteer Spam Task Force. Recently, he has blocked two users with any clear warning, and will not give a descriptive reason for the blocks besides "Disruptive Behavior". Hopefully, as a staff member, you can review these with a non-biased viewpoint and resolve this issue.

Here are the contributions and talk pages for the users involved:

But we prefer not to discuss details of most incidents, except with those directly involved. There are a lot of factors here: including the balance between keeping the community informed, respecting the privacy of those concerned, not "feeding the trolls" by giving extra publicity to those we have to block, and not spending time debating blocks when we could be working on something more helpful (like keeping up with my talk page >_<) -- sannse http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb32675/wikia/images/e/e9/WikiaStaff.png (help forum | blog)  03:19, June 27, 2011 (UTC)

New Plugboy Password
Plugboy was an old account of mine specifically used to make the Plug Wiki. But I just abandoned it, and forgot my password. I would like you to "e-mail" me a new password, but not actually e-mail it to me. In fact, use my talk page to tell me. I'll erase the message and change my password, so even if a user sees it in the history, it won't be my password anymore. I'll then make my current account an admin and fix up the wiki. Problem solved.

The reason I can't have you e-mail it to me is because I don't have an e-mail address. Another user made my current account (I changed the default password, of course), but told me to blank the e-mail, since it wasn't mine. This is the only way since my adoption request was declined.

 * I'm sorry, but that's not possible. We would never give out a password on a public talk page - even if it's there for a moment it's no longer secure. And without a valid email, we have no way of verifying that you are the owner of the account. The best thing is to simply start editing on the wiki, and you'll soon be eligable to adopt it. -- sannse http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb32675/wikia/images/e/e9/WikiaStaff.png (help forum | blog) 03:38, June 27, 2011 (UTC)


 * Okay. Actually, my parents are thinking of setting up an e-mail address for me, so I may be able to get a new password soon. ---****--- Roads (Hey, man, you've GOT to try this sandwich!) 12:36, June 27, 2011 (UTC)

A question regarding copyrights
Is it ok to upload pictures from to a wiki and provide attribution?--Mr.Wikia 12:41, June 26, 2011 (UTC)


 * Those pictures of copyright of the artist and you should get permission if you want to use them. Copyright can be complicated, and sometimes it's fine to use images as "fair use" - but that's likey to be in cases where it's something like a screenshot or promotional image of a game or TV show you are writing about (and when the makers of the game or show don't mind fans using their images that way). Where it's an artist's site, it's much less likely to fit in to that category -- sannse http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb32675/wikia/images/e/e9/WikiaStaff.png (help forum | blog) 03:53, June 27, 2011 (UTC)

Wikicars
Hello. Wikicars would like to merge with Autopedia. Wikicars special:export does not work. Could you guys run a bot to get the 6,000 articles and 27,000 images moved over to autopedia? Is this possible? Thank you. ---Hockeyben 19:15, June 27, 2011 (UTC)


 * Wikicars uses the GNU GPL license, I don't remember if that's compatible with Wikia or not. Assuming it is, you should get a database dump instead of using Special:Export - as Special:Import only takes files under 10mb, and 6000 articles is much larger than that.
