User talk:Angela

Welcome to my talk page. Please put new messages at the end. Please note that I might reply on this page, or I might reply on your own wiki. If you have a preference for where I reply, please let me know. You might get a faster response by emailing me since it isn't always easy to keep up with conversations on a wiki. If I've left a message for you on another wiki, please reply here since I won't be notified on messages outside of this wiki. Thanks!

I'll be in Minneapolis until October 10 so please don't expect instant replies to any messages left here. You might want to email me instead.

Admin
Hi, may I have admin rights in order to watch after the Detroit: and Judaism: Wikicities? I can do some repairs manually, but can't delete irrelevant pages. --CocoaZen 01:18, 27 Sep 2005 (UTC)


 * Sure. I'll do that now. Thanks for the offer to help. Angela (talk) 01:42, 27 Sep 2005 (UTC)

Interwiki image access
From your talk archive, it looks like Wikis can't access images from other Wikis, but is it possible for Memory Alpha to have a type of commons? Someone brought it up on the MA message board and I thought it might be convenient since I have to re-upload the same image four times if I want to add it to the same page across MA. However, take a look at MemoryAlpha:Special:Log/upload and I think you'll see why I came straight to you instead of discussing it on MA: I told it to show 500 at a time and the 500th entry was only on the 24th of September, with the 1000th on the 19th! --Schrei 23:11, 28 Sep 2005 (UTC)


 * It's not possible yet. It would be best to file a request for it at bugs.wikia.com so it can be implemented when there is time. Angela (talk) 06:12, 29 Sep 2005 (UTC)

Removal of huge segment of this Talk page
Angela, did you mean to cut so much out while doing your "new header"?

 * Yes, I did. I forgot I hadn't already saved the previous edit which was "moving to archive 2", so the edit summary didn't reflect that. Sory for any confusion. Angela (talk) 06:12, 29 Sep 2005 (UTC)

Wikifun vs. Jokebook
Hello Angela,

Subject: Your message:, 18:35, 28. Sep 2005 (UTC)

Please change the title from "Sammlung von Witzen" to "Wikifun". This is the name of the wiki and should be used for all languages.

Well, I've noticed that there already exists a project for the collection of English-speaking jokes: The Jokebook. Having two wikis for the same thing is in my opinion not useful. If we start an english-speaking version of Wikifun all pages of the Jokebook should be moved to it. But I can't decide this at my own. Well ... I'm going to write this suggestion on the Jokebook discussion page and see what the Jokebook-community thinks about this. Keep up the good work ;-) -- Achim 16:59, 29 Sep 2005 (UTC)


 * If the content is accepted in the English Wikibooks, I don't think it should be moved to Wikicities since we have a policy of not forking any existing Wikimedia projects. Angela (talk) 23:49, 29 Sep 2005 (UTC)


 * Alright, I agree. Please note that Wikifun can be also used very well for collecting funny images or other files in contrast to Jokebook. Anyway I'm occupied enough with the german issue ;-) -- Achim 06:36, 1 Oct 2005 (UTC)

Two things...
First off, the GameFAQs.com Wiki that you created for me is now totally unneeded, as another one that is now frequently used was made shortly after.

Second, I applied for a Christian Music Wiki almost 2 weeks ago and haven't received a response. Was it rejected or something? 21:07, 29 Sep 2005 (UTC)


 * Sorry, I got a bit behind with the requests but I've replied by email to you about this now. Angela (talk) 23:49, 29 Sep 2005 (UTC)
 * No problem, thank you ^.^ 00:03, 30 Sep 2005 (UTC)

about .doc support
Hi Angela. No you hadn't got back to me, but thanks for doing so. THinking about it, it makes total sense for there not to be .doc support on the wikicities. The virus risk is probably untenable. (Forgive a complacent virus-free Mac user for not thinking about viruses and other malware). And of course macro viruses are platform independent.

Email
I think a mailing list is the cause of this e-mail:

"Hello Nickelodeon-l-owner,

At this time we can offer a small update at our system - BD-MAGAZINE Issue N6! Wow a whole 2 hours of live video? Well, maybe, but probably not. Feauturing fresh girls had fun in dressing room changing clothes, dressing and undressing each other and more make it bigger than your every day site but 2 hours? I doubt it, but who ...

What's that all about? -Color Printer

Changing image in HowTo
I wonder how to change the left-up image in the HowTo project - any image should be good even empty for now...


 * An admin needs to do that. Do you have a user name? If so, you can upload an image, then let me know, and I can make it the logo for that wiki. Angela (talk) 22:43, 2 Oct 2005 (UTC)

Falling behind or error?
A few weeks ago I submitted a request for a new wiki devoted to the works of Japanese author Hajime Kanzaka (Slayers, Lost Universe, etc.). I have not received a reply from you yet. Have you simply fallen behind on requests or was there some sort of error that will require me to submit again? --Argy 23:36, 2 Oct 2005 (UTC)

Regarding Gameinfo
I don't understand the problem with just adding guide content to gameinfo. Have you tried to discuss with the users there what changes would be needed? I think it would be a fork of that wiki to start another one so similar to it. Please reply on user talk:Angela since it might take a while for me to notice replies on this page. Angela (talk) 23:48, 29 Sep 2005 (UTC)


 * Hm, I guess I should check here more often. Anyway, the problem was just that I couldn't work out how to have two distinct interfaces for speedy access to each content type without making it ungainly and/or confusing for editors and visitors alike. However after looking around at a few other wikis and some of the larger wikicities, and especially discovering how the MediaWiki: pages affect the interface, I've worked out pretty much how the solution will work. Things have been so hectic over here that somewhere along the line I completely forgot to keep you updated on this. So, long story short, the other wikicity is no longer necessary. Thanks for all your patience. :) Garrett 09:27, 4 Oct 2005 (UTC)

Database corruption
Hi Angela!

Good to hear from you, if not the best circumstances...!

In reference to your message at User talk:Andrewa, I'm sure that the edit is not mine, despite what the history now says. The edit summary is from one of my edits, but this edit appears to have disappeared completely, it's no longer in the history. I'm afraid I can't remember the exact text of this lost edit, but it was adding a short reply to Pjotr'k's post concerning Frère Roger, not all but blanking the page.

Recovering the lost edit is of no great importance to me, but it would be nice to remove my userid from the blanking. Andrewa 06:45, 5 Oct 2005 (UTC)
