Becoming a Call of Duty Administrator
Hi, this is the Son of the Witch-King and I am helping the Call of Duty Wiki's administrator Pw3djoe make the wiki grow. So far I have edited about 34 articles out of 45 in the wiki and I think I could do better as a administrator. So far Pw3djoe has not been too active lately so I am asking you to somehow help me become an administrator on the Call of Duty Wiki. If you can I would be thankful but for some reason you can't, you can tell me about another user who can do this.

RuneScape Wiki Wanted Pages
There seems to be an issue with wanted pages on RuneScape Wiki. Our wanted pages seem to go well over 500 and we are trying to remove many red links. However, some pages that appear in wanted pages do not have the red links when you go to edit them. I've uploaded one image as an example. When, for example, "Forum:Hyenaste's bank sale" is clicked on, there is a list of pages that the link supposededly exists on. However, when you go to edit any of those pages, the links don't exist (for example, User talk:Jdthegameboy). This isn't the only link that does this, but it had a shorter number of links so I believed it would be the best example. These links have been on wanted pages for several weeks now, and will not go away. I was told to ask you about what the problem may be. Do you have any suggestions for us? --Clv309


 * I'll try to get someone to fix the links table. Angela talk 17:40, 18 June 2007 (UTC)


 * Greatly appreciated =] Clv309 18:50, 18 June 2007 (UTC)


 * Some of these pages were mistakenly recreated in one user's attempt to remove them from wanted pages. As I'm not a sysop (and none are on at the moment), they have not been deleted yet. I'm just not sure if they will still give the same problem once they have been deleted again (if, for some reason, they do however, at least now we know one way to get rid of them). We'd still appreciate someone looking into why the issue appeared in the first place though. Thanks. Clv309

When i was on wanted pages, i crearted a page, doubled back and it was still red. So i wenrt back 4wards and then got onto the wanted pages via links (not using the go back button) and it worked. Try that. Forerunner
 * This issue has been (mostly) resolved by going to the page where the link supposedly was, clicking edit, then resaving the page without making any changes. However, we're still left with several pages on the list where, when we go to click on them, is says no pages link there. Some pages stay on the list for days, then (they seem to) eventually disappear and then other times they're removed when the list is purged. Not sure what to do about that. Clv309
 * This should be fixed now. Angela (talk)

Problem on Star Wars wiki
One of the adminstrators, Darth Culator, has been harassing and insulting me since I don't share his views on two articles. So far, he's called me a troll, idiot, moron, and thick skulled. It could escalate to even higher insults. Can you please talk to him?


 * Hi, I've replied on your talk page -- Sannse 20:07, 20 June 2007 (UTC) (Wikia Community Team)

Honorverse Wiki
Hi, I was wondering if you can help me. I would like to adopt the Honorverse Wiki. I have contacted the two admins but they havent responded. In fact, when I started to edit and add articles to the wiki, there was roughly nine articles since it was founded in 2005. I started to add articles two weeks ago. I added around roughly 80 articles, organized the articles, and went to different Honor Harrington forums to enlist help. I got one user, who has since added many articles since he started a few days ago. Between me and this new user, we have added up to an additional 90 articles. I have sent a contact form in but I havent gotten a reply. If you can help out, that would be a good step. --Farragut79 03:40, 21 June 2007 (UTC)


 * I've made you an admin there. Let me know if you need any help with this wiki. Angela talk 21:27, 21 June 2007 (UTC)

Question about an open request
Rowikicity Hi, you look at this page? How long will this request be open? I thought between 2 and 10 days? There is already a great support, so? Thnx! Bucurestean 20:45, 22 June 2007 (UTC)


 * I've made this at rowikicity.wikia.com. Angela talk 13:43, 23 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Thanks a lot! We're already very busy :). Mocu asks if it's possible to edit the interface (because "my preferences" is written in english), and he also asks if there can be the buttons below your edit field with the Romanian diacritic letters (like at ro.wikipedia). As far as I know the last is not possible. Greets, 19:31, 23 June 2007 (UTC)


 * I've replied at w:c:rowikicity:Discuţie Utilizator:Bucurestean. Angela talk 19:39, 23 June 2007 (UTC)

Wikideath is Dead!
Wikideath is dead and I'd like to take it over. I emailed the owner about 2 months ago and he hasn't responded. The Wiki has only one article in it. Can I be made the new owner or can a new one be created called DeathWikia, replacing Wikideath? Thanks!


 * You're welcome to join that wiki and start creating articles. There's no ownership of wikis, so I can't make you an owner, but once you've been involved there for a while you can become an adminstrator. Angela talk 23:18, 23 June 2007 (UTC)


 * Thanks! I've already written an article on Death in Ancient Rome and plan to add more so here's to the future! Is it possible to change the logo?


 * Just upload an image called Logo.png which is no more than 150px square and let me know. I can make it the logo for you. Angela talk 07:26, 25 June 2007 (UTC)

Admin Access
Hi

I've been a major contributing editor at familyguy.wikia.com and americandad.wikia.com

On both of those sites I probably have the most, or near the most constructive edits to each site and have been a valued member to those communities. However, the admins currently there are somewhat inactive currently, and I would like to be able to upload a few new logos to both wiki as well and I apparently need the admin access to get through the protected pages. If you can grant it thanks, but if not can you direct me to someone who can, thanks

Grande13 03:00, 24 June 2007 (UTC)


 * Since those are both active wikis that have logos already, I suggest you upload a logo for discussion first rather than making it the logo straight away. You can do that calling it Logo.png instead of Wiki.png. Angela talk 07:32, 25 June 2007 (UTC)

Maplewiki name change
Hello. Apparently, Maplewiki is also a name for a wikia wiki. Please change the name as an already established wiki, maplewiki (maplewiki.net) is already in use. It has been around since December of 2005. Please change the name to keep the confusion at a minimum. (contact me at mapletip -at- gmail.com) 76.193.160.22 06:54, 24 June 2007 (UTC)


 * Wikia's Maple wiki existed before Maplewiki.net. I thought that was where wolfspider had taken the name from. Feel free to email me about this if you want to. Angela talk 07:32, 25 June 2007 (UTC)

Pro Wrestling Wikia update
Hey Angela. I have successfully pulled two former/part-time good-faith editors from Wikipedia and put them on the task of helping me jump-start this Wikia.

But as a convience to User:RobJ1981 and User:The Hybrid and future editors that we are bringing in from Wikipedia, and I know this is a very bold request, I am requesting bureaucrat status for my account on that Wikia so that I can make the two of them sysops and any other trusted full-time editors, sysops. I have been on this Wikia since 2005 (first under the name SWD316), the only full-time admin on the Wikia, and I have so far brought in a number of editors, and they have as well, to start expanding the project (although only a couple have stayed full-time). I have been busy removing fair use violations and setting up the basic foundation to where the project is going and how articles are going to be written. I'm currently working triple duty right now as a full-time editor on Wikipedia, admin on Pro Wrestling Wikia and an admin on another Wiki, so I'm not going to dedicate 100% strickly to Pro Wrestling Wikia, so admin actions are being put off until I come back, so thats why I am needing bureaucrat status to promote other editors for when I'm not there. Plus, this also reduces the need to disturb you every time we need another admin :)

Can you get back to me and let me know? Thank you! — M o e ε  17:22, 24 June 2007 (UTC)


 * Ok. I'll do that now. Angela talk 07:32, 25 June 2007 (UTC)


 * Thanks Angela :) — M o e ε  12:50, 25 June 2007 (UTC)

All i did was change the : mark forthe votes of the Forum:B.C.E.? i changed it o the '#' mark so it shows the ammount f votes. Then i had to merge a reply from myself to thurther m point with my vote above it. Misteriously GPT, who if i remember asked 2 get banned and NOT be able 2 use Admin buttons!


 * I think he means you removed this comment. I think it would be best if another admin looked at this who is more neutral and not involved in the debate. I'm discussing this with him on IRC now. Angela talk 07:35, 26 June 2007 (UTC)
 * I removed isbecause it was on the wrong list. i coppied it but i guess i 4gpt 2 paste it. My Laptop has low memory so it stops the AOL from Copying as it could make the Memory even shorter
 * I recommend you make your edit summaries clearer to avoid misunderstandings in future because "Deleting crazy reliegeous anti-Atheist comment" doesn't sound like you were moving the comment to another place. Angela talk 14:24, 26 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Well i was planning on a summery:moving anti-atheist comment to the pile. cos i did delete it. Right click was broken though all of a sudden stopping me from pasting. I could have added a Notebook, but i should have rather refreshed my toolbar settings, getting rid 0of memory, but 2 much was used for me 2 do that.
 * erm... also i thaught he didn't want 2 be admin and asked 2 be banned. also i thaught that if an Admin got banned, he/she will be a normal user when the ban lifts...

He's crazy!!!! i appologised and explained what happened and explain why i wouldn't make true vandalisms (explaining this on Radiata), then he calls me a liar and bans me extra Week!!! he also said somat about it being better to swith all athiest stuff to the apparently true belief of Christianity (if you don't know of it, its the one that says anything over 5000 years old isn't real)


 * Hi Forerunner. Have you tried talking to the other admins on this wiki about it? Where is the conversation where he's saying you lied? Was this on IRC? Angela (talk) 20:43, 30 June 2007 (UTC)
 * no t'was on Radiata. Then ge goes on saying that i' keep demanding him 2 unblock me, i only asked why i was blocked (for further info). Tho i have been gthinking of getting his MSN (got RRs*cough*Kyles*cough* Email).

Also it was hard to know it was his comment i deleted (i swear i removed it cos it was on the wrong chapter) due to users making their code directly instead of making a special template ie.

Blocked
Hi. I'm contacting you regarding my recent blocking from the Kingdom Hearts Wikia (I have tried using the contact form but have had no reply, I think there may be a problem with my browser...) In short, it has been claimed that my account is a sockpuppet for another user, which it is not. For the full discussion, please see my user talk: http://kingdomhearts.wikia.com/wiki/User_talk:Adamcox82. I would like to request a CheckUser to verify that my IP address and other details do not match the user Interrobang. Your help in this would be greatly appreciated, as Scottch has so far been unwilling to listen to me. Many thanks, Adam --Adamcox82 15:38, 26 June 2007 (UTC)


 * I've left a message for Scottch about it. Angela (talk) 20:43, 30 June 2007 (UTC)
 * I've unblocked him - the detailed reply is here. Thanks for helping clear up my mistake :-\   Scott  ch  01:20, 1 July 2007 (UTC)


 * Thanks for your help Angela. --Adamcox82 11:44, 1 July 2007 (UTC)

Interwiki
Hello. Is it possible to enable interwiki's? Because we have Wikistad, and there is now a Romanian version, RoWikicity. Thank you, 15:56, 26 June 2007 (UTC)
 * It'll make it a lot easier to unite the to Wiki's.. 12:46, 27 June 2007 (UTC)


 * This is working now, for French, Romanian, and Dutch. Angela (talk)

#swfanon access
Hi Angela, could you possibly grant me sysop (access) abilties on the iRC channel for Star Wars Fanon? Thanks. My nickname (my registered one) is JM76. 20:51, 27 June 2007 (UTC)


 * GHe now has access to be able to grant this on #swfanon. Angela (talk)

User:Plumber
He is a Burecrat at Fantendo, can you please take those powers away? He has been spamming the MediaWiki titles. Thank you in advance.

-Max2


 * I don't see any signs of spamming. Have you discussed this with him or anyone else on the wiki? Being a bureaucrat just means he can make other users into admins. Any admin can edit the MediaWiki messages. Angela (talk) 20:43, 30 June 2007 (UTC)

StarCraft wiki
StarCraft wiki is in serious need of improvement, especially considering that is seems to have little to nothing in terms of common.css (for example, the "wikitable" class does not exist.) I would be happy to become an Admin on StarCraft wiki and work to fix these things. Thank You, SigmaEpsilon 03:59, 30 June 2007 (UTC)


 * PsiSeveredHead and Shdwlink1993 are bureaucrats there and can make you an admin or fix the stylesheets. Angela (talk) 20:43, 30 June 2007 (UTC)

Swedish Star Wars Fanon Wiki
Hello. As the founder of the Swedish Star Wars Fanon Wiki I would like to change the name of the wiki, could you please change it to just "Star Wars Fanon". I contacted Jack Phoenix, an administrator here on Wikia on the SSWFW about this question, he told me to contact the Community team wich would contact the Technical team. --N@M3Le$, administrator of SSWFW.


 * Ok, I'll see if TOR can do this. Angela (talk) 20:43, 30 June 2007 (UTC)


 * Thanks! The only problem now is that the title of the wiki is the same as before, could you see if they can fix it to just "Star Wars Fanon". --N@M3Le$, administrator of SSWFW.


 * Hello again. I noticed you were online, so I have a question. Could you remove Bureaucrat powers from Neomessiah and Sysop powers from Bub on the Star Wars Fanon Wiki? They are both listed as retired, and I doubt either of them is coming back. With that space 'open', we can replace them with new Sysops and Bureaucrats. Thanks. 22:40, 30 June 2007 (UTC)


 * There's no limit on the number of admins, so you don't need to remove them in order to add new ones. I suggest you leave them a message on their talk pages or email them first to see if you can convince them to come back to the wiki. I think that would be better than leaving them to remain inactive. Angela (talk) 22:47, 30 June 2007 (UTC)
 * I realize there's no limit, but its better than just leaving those positions unused. Neomessiah left back in September (though he had a minor edit in December) and we talked to Bub about it, and he seemed quite intent on leaving. 22:54, 30 June 2007 (UTC)


 * Bub is obviously still active. He edited just a few days ago to comment on a CurrentBigThing's request for adminship. Just because he said he was busy a month ago really is no reason to try and remove useful admin tools from him without discussing that with him. Neomessiah is the founder of that wiki so I don't really understand why you'd want to remove adminship from him. It's quite possible he will come back - people often take a wiki break for a few months. You could discuss this with the swfanon community one he has been gone for a year. Angela (talk) 23:04, 30 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Alright then, I'll discuss it with him. 23:06, 30 June 2007 (UTC)

Tolkienpedia
Hello, I would want to move http://it.tolkien.wikia.com to http://it.lotr.wikia.com/. you can make it, please? --Morgoth92 16:29, 2 july 2007 (CEST)


 * TOR will do that this week. Angela (talk) 15:10, 2 July 2007 (UTC)

Some changes
Hello! Sorry for giving you so much work, but is it possible to do the following things on TranslateWiki: Again, sorry for giving you so much work, but it is not urgent.
 * The possibility to make titles in the main namespace in lowercase like in Wiktionary (but only in main namespace if possible)
 * Enable interwikilinks to Wiktionary
 * Make a namespace . (There are already a few pages, see here)
 * Make a namespace, which automatically redirects to the namespace   That is easier for linking etc.

Thank you very much, 16:22, 3 July 2007 (UTC)


 * It is important, like in Wiktionary. I know this would breaking links, but now TranslateWiki is still small, and most links link already to pages in lowercase.
 * Yes, but I mean on the left, under the tools.
 * In the Wiktionaries, there are translations at the pages of words in the content language. The words in other languages link to the translation into the content language. In TranslateWiki, there are translations at every page of every language. Instead of updating every translation of one word, I use a template for each word. For those templates, I would use this namespace. That would be better to have a 'separation' between translation templates and normal templates. If an automatic redirect is not possible, then would be the namespace  better, instead of the long.
 * 17:49, 3 July 2007 (UTC)


 * About the interwiki links, maybe you're right.
 * I know OmegaWiki, and that was also a proposal for a Wikimedia project, but it didn't become a Wikimedia project. I think it is because OmegaWiki uses Wikidata, and that is not easy for new users. The idea of OmegaWiki is good, but maybe TranslateWiki would better fit in the policy of Wikimedia projects.
 * 18:57, 3 July 2007 (UTC)


 * That was the aim before I adopted it, now making a free multilingual wiki to translate words and short sentences. 19:16, 3 July 2007 (UTC)

Cajaan Robards
Hi. This is Cajaan Robards off the Pirates of the Caribbean wiki. My real name's Dafydd but my mates call me Taz. (You can call me Taz :)) Is this Kwenn? Um, I'm wondering if this is the right way to communicate with you but I'm not that good on computers and this page is where I kindof ended up lol. You gave me a message or something, something about my discussions in the Brethren Court, but I didn't quite understand it. Could you please break it down for me so even a computer-challenged person like me could understand :P? Thanks. Pleasure meeting you, Cajaan Robards

Adopting SimCity
Hi Angela, I would like to adopt SimCity and was hoping I could be given administrative rights over the wiki. Tunheim started the wiki a year ago, but didn't make any articles for the wiki and has been inactive for nearly a year. So far I've created four articles along with adding a good amount of content to the main page. Thank you for your consideration. I hope to contribute more in the future, but want to establish myself as the adopter. Jelx 19:02, 5 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Thank you for giving me the opportunity, I appreciate it. I'll definitely be sure to ask for help if I need to :) Thanks again. Jelx 19:09, 5 July 2007 (UTC)
