Just fishing for good input from you
Hi Angela, I've been working very dilligently, ever since you got me started on Wikia, and I've had an absolutely wonderful time working with Lisa (sannse). I know that you're very busy, so I've simply dropped by to inform you of something good that's happening at w:c:Christianity:Christianity Knowledge Base:ChristianKM, and I'm requesting your highly valued participation in the discussion, if you choose to contribute your input.

Request cloak
Hello, I would like to request a Wikia cloak if it will work on all wikis. I am DakotaK in irc. My nick is registered and linked so I have followed all the instructions. I have had an unaffiliated cloak from freeenode for awhile. Thank you :) --DakotaKahn 14:50, 21 August 2006 (UTC)


 * I've asked freenode for this. Let me know if it doesn't happen within a few days. Angela (talk)
 * Thank you :)--DakotaKahn 04:06, 31 August 2006 (UTC)


 * It hasn't went through yet but thanks again for trying for me :)--DakotaKahn 05:24, 4 September 2006 (UTC) 05:23, 4 September 2006 (UTC)


 * It has gone through. I get this if I look up info on the nick "DakotaKahn", which does show the Wikia cloak:

Bugs?
 You have put the above link on your page. Why? What is it for?


 * It used to be a link to all open bugs, but the setup changed so it's not the right link anymore. Angela (talk) 10:10, 29 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)


 * Have you tried to discuss this issue with the person who blocked you? Angela (talk)
 * This user is unblocked now. Szoferka 13:05, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

hello
although in certain things I am grateful to you, I tell you, it seems to me hypocritical that being an active member of wikipedia you are of vice-president of the organization that is at the same time against wikipedia, of reason that they are not not so in against, in inciclopedia say to be enemies of wikipedia but on having seen them, they are the same touches in different part.

for what wikia is not it independent of wikipedia? why does this have face of political of marketing?

--ODIGO 18:39, 26 August 2006 (UTC)


 * Wikia is a strong supporter of Wikipedia, so I don't understand what you mean. Inciclopedia is just a parody site. I hope you weren't taking it seriously. Angela (talk) 10:10, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

Blocking talk pages on Nonsensopedia
Hello. Now is ok, we don't get problem with baned users. It was a single problem, I hope. Szoferka 13:05, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

Special:Makesysop
Hi Angela,

The system is telling me that I don't have the Makesysop flag yet. Looks like that is an extra step for Bureaucrats. No rush, but can you let me know what I'm missing? Chadlupkes 14:31, 29 August 2006 (UTC)


 * I was going to say User_talk:Chadlupkes#Makesysop|what Splarka said - try logging out and in again. Angela (talk) 03:44, 30 August 2006 (UTC)

RS Wiki ads
Hey, about those ads, some have been removed (though I think they may have came back somehow), some are still remaining.--Richard 17:31, 29 August 2006 (UTC)


 * Ok, can you send me a list of which ones still appear please? Angela (talk) 03:44, 30 August 2006 (UTC)

Subpages
Open project development needs subpages on the main namespace, because it's based on projects, and a page related to a project could have the same name of the one for an other project (for example Nick's party/where and Mass pilgrimage/where ). To keep some order it would be useful to have subpages. I know, in wikipedia they aren't allowed, because categories are clearer, but I don't think that the best solution in OPD is to make a category for every single project. And it's also better to have a kind of main page for every LDI (project), which would be possible with subpages. I didn't know where to make the request, hope here it's ok. --Let&#39;s 13:21, 30 August 2006 (UTC)


 * This is done now. Angela (talk) 14:07, 30 August 2006 (UTC)


 * Thank you. How fast! --Let&#39;s 19:59, 30 August 2006 (UTC)

Sega Favicon
When I try to upload my favicon, (currently ), it gives me an internal error signal. Its probably how I'm uploading it but could you tell me how to upload it properly or try to upload it please.

Wikada - Talk Contributions 18:25, 30 August 2006 (UTC)


 * I think this might be fixed now. Try uploading it again. Angela (talk) 01:05, 31 August 2006 (UTC)


 * Actually, all favicons are slightly broken at the moment. They should start working again once the new image locations are sorted out. Angela (talk) 05:40, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

StargateWars Wikia
Hi, thanks for that. I reverted it as soon as I realised. Would you be able to tell me how to change the Wikia logo to something more suiting? Also, is there an admin interface or menu or something similar with which one can administrate? Thanks.

Hunterd 13:36, 1 September 2006 (UTC)


 * Thanks for that. Hunterd 13:44, 1 September 2006 (UTC)

Greetings, oh mighty administrator of Wikia. May blessings and peace be upon you (sorry, that's a quote from Kartoum, a really old film...).

Three things:


 * 1) Is it possible to do redirects? There is no button for it in the editing interface, but it there some other way?
 * 2) Is it possible to undo Sysop creations? (By that I mean is it possible for me (i.e., not some other crazy SysOp)to remove a Sysop's privileges?)
 * 3) What's the difference between a beurocrat and a SysOp?

Thanks for your time.

Hunterd 06:37, 4 September 2006 (UTC)
 * I'll reply on your wiki. Angela (talk) 06:59, 4 September 2006 (UTC)


 * Thanks. Does that mean that a SysOp I just created is not capable of making other users SysOps? Hunterd 07:42, 4 September 2006 (UTC)


 * Thank you, oh wise one, for your speedy replies! Hunterd 07:54, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

adult swim wiki
Hi, I contacted Robin Hood of the Azure Flame about the wiki and he didnt respond so i was wondering what i would have to do to adopt it. Ugluk 01:40, 5 September 2006 (UTC)

Gaiapedia (Gaia Wiki)
Some time ago I requested 3 namespaces for our wiki. I have a feeling that it was passivly rejected because there was no concensus because the community on our wiki nearly never cummunicated with each other, especialy since 95% of the active users had been inactive for a month or two. I'm re-requesting the "Item", "NPC", and "Map" namespaces. As I finaly got communication to begin between members, and I've gathered from our small group of people that actualy work on the wiki 8 votes for the namespaces (The poll counts up to 7, but One member posted a yes using the alternative system before the poll went up), 1 Vote for only the "Item" namespace, and 2 votes against (One of the 3 no's calcualted is actualy the 1 for the single namespace).

The discussion is here(Interwiki linking seams to be broken here).

Could I also request subpages for the Template namespace, I've got a template or two for our forum system that uses the / to seperate into the subpages (Most notibly the Answer template) but for those browsing that template's subareas there is no link back because of how the templates are used. It may also have currently unknown possible uses in the future because our wiki is considering liking with another.

dantman 05:10, 5 September 2006 (UTC)


 * Oh, if you do make the Item namespace like the community wishes, would It be possible to get a temporary Bot Flag on our GaiaBotSys thats the Bot account I have as a sysop for possible use in certain types of repetative page deletion. I was denied request for a Bot flag on it because bot flags aren't given to sysops for certain reasons, but I was advised by that person to ask for a temporary bot flag for the days' that I need it, in the case I brought up, our Item Migration which will fill up the recent changes with redirect page deletion if we do not have a bot with sysop capabilitys. For Item migration accounting for the time before I get on the computer after the flag is given I beleve 2 or 3 days should suffice, that gives time for Migration from ___ to Item:___ and for Link Changes, and finaly the actual Page removal by Bot. dantman 07:49, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

follow up comments on en.guildwars.wikia stuff
The profession icons images (Assassin-icon.png etc) are actually original art work created by User:LordBiro of the GuildWiki, inspired by in-game icons (which doesn't look all that great when used on webpages). So it should be considered more as "fan art" and should be deleted from en.guildwars.wikia. For comparision:
 * w:c:guildwars:image:元素使.png - Screen shot image from the game
 * w:c:en.guildwars:image:Elementalist-icon.png - Original creation by LordBiro from GulidWiki that User:Santium uploaded to en.wikia

Similarily, is another original creation by LordBiro. I don't have the picture of the in-game image immediately available, but I can dig around for it if necessary. Thanks. -PanSola 08:07, 5 September 2006 (UTC)


 * Hi Angela. Ironically you haven't delete Elementalist-icon.png yet (link above). d-: -PanSola 00:34, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

StargateWars Wikia (reprise)
Hi Angela,

Just wondering:


 * 1) What exactly is a favicon? I see help guides referring to them as favourites icons, but have no clue what they are. :-)
 * 2) Is it possible to get a featured-article stars such as that seen on Wikipedia (or perhaps a custom star)?

Thanks.

Hunterd 09:51, 5 September 2006 (UTC)


 * Thanks. Finally tonight two more things:


 * 1) Is it possible to block a user's IP, despite the fact that they edit logged in?
 * 2) Is there a sandbox floating around somewhere, or should I send new users to the Wikipedia sandbox?

Oh, and I've just changed my signature for your convenience, but it's still me. David P. A. Hunter, esq. III talk 10:02, 5 September 2006 (UTC)

 * Are you the person adding these links? How is adding the same link to the home page of every Russian wiki not spam? How is vilenin relevant to those 3 wikis? Angela (talk) 11:27, 5 September 2006 (UTC)

1: This is article about Lenin (If you don't khow about him, then read http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vladimir_Lenin)
 * Yes, I am this person;
 * In "every Russian wiki" (Actually not in all) I am adding not only link on www.vilenin.info, I am adding link on www.vilenin.info with thematic to a site and to them text, but I agree, that I have gone too far. For this purpose the optimal only 3 specified wiki

 * Unless another Russian speaker who I can trust says this link is needed on the wiki, I'm going to leave it blacklisted since you have admitted to spamming this on multiple wikis. Spam is not allowed here. Please just accept that and stop trying to promote your own site in this way. Angela (talk) 08:51, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

Toki Pona Wikia
Hi Angela, thank you for support for my activities in the Toki Pona Wikia. I've recently become an administrator there and now I'm trying to sweep it up a bit, while attempting to make the toki pona community aware of the profit they could gain from adopting it. Maybe I will need some help from you in the near future, such as with some settings of that wikia which can't be changed directly by an administrator. I'll get back to you when the time comes. o toki! Blahma 13:13, 5 September 2006 (UTC)

Re: Ads
You left a note on Shadowdancer's talk page regarding the ads on the RuneScape wiki. I'm afraid he left...Creative differences. (He wanted his word to be law. We wouldn't let him.) Just thought you might like to know, you won't get a reply. Vimescarrot 17:32, 5 September 2006 (UTC)

Wikia Server Problems?
Hi Angela. Is Wikia having server problems of any kind? Overall, it just seems to be running slower for me. Additionally, all the thumbnails on my Main Page are failing to load, and the book cover gallery page isn't loading for me at all. Any ideas? (preferred response on Redwall Wiki please) --LordTBT  Talk! 16:07, 6 September 2006 (UTC)


 * Update: I found the solution to the thumbnails problem. Instead of an image location being listed like this:


 * http://redwall.wikia.com/images/thumb/4/49/RedwallUSCover.jpg/75px-RedwallUSCover.jpg


 * It is now like this:


 * http://images.wikia.com/redwall/images/thumb/4/49/RedwallUSCover.jpg/75px-RedwallUSCover.jpg

Hi Angela - I signed up at the very beginning, in July. I listed myself as a blogger, I linked to the Campaigns Wikia at least twice, I emailed Mr. Wales and just this evening, to my surprise, he emailed me back. A pleasant surprise I should say. Now, however, I haven't received listserv digests since the very first week I signed up and I'm listed as a blogger who doesn't link to the campaigns wikia but is just doing it for page rank (which, I confess, I'm not even sure I know exactly what that is).

So - a couple of things: I think this is a great idea and would like to get more involved. I'd like to correct the impression that I haven't linked to the Wikia and remove myself from the blacklist so to speak! And, I'd like to start receiving the listserv emailed digests again.

I see this says I'm not logged in, though I do have login settings. I suppose I should login whenever I come over?

Thanks for whatever advice you can provide.

Academia and Wikiversity
Hello, Angela. You suggested earlier that Wikiversity and the Academic Publishing Wiki largely overlap. With the launch of Wikiversity, I'm wondering if it might be a good idea to merge the projects. I continue to feel that wiki academic publishing could serve as a valuable resource, but it's a project that requires a large and active userbase. The Academia Wikia has a few devoted editors, but would almost certainly benefit from a move. Likewise, it would be an important addition to Wikiversity. I would appreciate any help you can offer in connecting the two projects. Sarge Baldy 21:31, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

About Interlanguage Link
I always appreciate your service very much. :-) Pages increased with wcl.wikia. Therefore, I hope that Interlanguage Link becomes active. I sent mail last week. But, I am afraid that it didn't reach to you, for some problems. I appreciate your service again. Watchtower Library 11:46, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
