Welcome
Welcome,, to Community Central!

We are a friendly community here; most of us are active on an individual Wikia, and many of us are active on more than one.

If you're looking for help, use the Community Portal or Help Desk. If your wiki needs something done, leave the details on the Volunteer Portal. If you need assistance from a member of staff, leave a message with one of the Community Team.

You can get live help from community members and staff in our IRC channel. There are also channels for larger Wikia and their communities. Here you can socialise and get to know your community!

If you have an idea for a new Wikia, please let us know! Check out new wikis and see if any of them interest you. A directory of existing wikis is also available.

Finally, please keep an eye on the recent changes to see what the community is up to and to help reverse spam and vandalism.

Enjoy! --Michaeldsuarez (Talk) (Deeds) 21:07, 24 July 2008 (UTC)

Hi, do you know how to edit the monobook footer?  KrazyKat Talk to me! 04:04, 7 November 2008 (UTC)

TurtleShroom
Yet another insult comes my way. Are you aware, that to me, callinng me dishonest is an insult to my dignity, my religion, and my family? Please, stop! Are you out to ruin my day (don't respond to that)?

Please, LEAVE ME BE! TurtleShroom

Once more...
Once again, I am not making any errors of my ways. That is your opinion. I am also calm. Slightly irritated, but calm. If I was not, you would definately be able to tell. Furthermore, I am not on the Star Wars Fanon Wiki, so I do not undestand your references to it. To continue, the Wikis I help run uphold different standards, and so do I.

I would like to reference you to the heading of my talk page. I just would like to be left alone before an Edit War breaks out.

Re: Big Wikis
But Darthipedia has 500 MILLION articles, it's WAY bigger than the one on the top now. It should be on the top. WAY on the top. Everything else isn't even near that many articles. They won't be confused, it's the biggest wiki EVER on wikia. --SuperFlash101 20:26, 26 November 2008 (UTC)

Yeah, I saw that page. I'm sorry, I get it. But HOW did they make it say they had 5 million articles, and why? --SuperFlash101 20:31, 26 November 2008 (UTC)

Oh, okay. It wasn't that funny, it confused me and made me add it to the list. I'll remove it from the page entirely. --SuperFlash101 20:37, 26 November 2008 (UTC)

My bad, I'm still a novice.
I'm still getting used to wikia and have made a lot of mistakes. I'll eventually get the hang out it though. I edited that page again to say more of what I wanted to say. Users over on Bungie.net know this guide as project orange. I recently decided to use wikia because it had the most potential and is the most beneficial. I just need to do a lot more reading and figure the basics out. Thanks.

RE: Comment from RFA
"#***I don't think Texas Kaos has ever made an attempt to create this new wiki of his; I think you accidentally chased him away from Wikia. Perphaps you should have pointed him towards the Requests wiki and told him that Wikia Help isn't the place to set up a new wiki. In addition, you should have told him that user pages shouldn't be used as 'placeholders' for wikis. Although I don't think blogs deserve wikis, there was a better way to handle the situation. --Michaeldsuarez (Talk) (Deeds) 17:37, 15 December 2008 (UTC)"

The situation was never finished, I had to leave for 3 days for California and wasn't active on Wikia at the time. I left for the airport shortly after this messages toward me, so I didn't have time to fully address a situation that was approached to me with such hostility and incivility. The userpage content itself wasn't a placeholder for anything, it was blatant spam, nothing more nothing less (which is why I deleted it). Before he made attempts to contact me, I thought it was just another spambot. I see them all the time. It looked nothing like what would be more appropriate somewhere else. You can ask Kirkburn for the deleted text of the page if you are so inclined. :) -- 17:54, 15 December 2008 (UTC)


 * I'm not so sure. If it was so black-and-white, then why were you de-sysoped? I'm sure the others there know what spam is. There has to be some gray area to his user page. I'm not sure if I should bother Kirkburn about something as trivial as a RFA. --Michaeldsuarez (Talk) (Deeds) 18:07, 15 December 2008 (UTC)


 * I don't know, I was never told. I'm guessing Texas Kaos contacted Wikia in some way in a manner similar to that of the messages left on my talk page, and that they took the matter a little more seriously. And it wasn't about the RfA, if it was if you were curious about the content of the page, since you had commented about it. -- 18:11, 15 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Alright, the degree of misunderstanding-ness over the whole thing is higher than I expected. Yes, I'm curious about what it actually said, but I'm sure Kirkburn has better things to do. I'll trust your word about its content for now. --Michaeldsuarez (Talk) (Deeds) 18:21, 15 December 2008 (UTC)

Is this.... right?
That there can be a site leader? 'Cause there's this site leader on the Club Penguin Wiki and he thinks he's a dictator on the Wiki. You can see it in here and here. Reply on my talk page.

Hey, I'm currently admin on the family guy wiki and the american dad wiki, and I would like to become one for "The Cleveland Show" wiki. The site really has no user traffic now, and no admins that are active that I can find so I was hoping you can make me an admin for that show so I can begin working on that page. thanks Grande13 16:45, 11 March 2009 (UTC)

Offensive?
Hi,

I saw that you had a user remove "Jesus Loves You and Died for You!!" from his signature. I thought that you could post anything on Wikia, no matter what religion you have. Are you going to say that my userbox about being a Christian here is offensive and I shouldn't have it? Just curious, and I don't want to start a fight or anything.

--JewntansOath My talk page / My contributions / Send me an email 01:51, 18 March 2009 (UTC)
 * How in the world is it spam? I'm sorry that you don't like what religion we have, but is it really a Wikia rule? --JewntansOath My talk page / My contributions / Send me an email 01:57, 18 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Me, myself, I would actully like to see that someone else believes that Christ saved them. What you showed me, and exactly how you showed it to me, that is spam. A small little blurb in a signature should not be spam. I do understand that people that do not belive what we belive would not like to see that on their talk pages, but I really don't think that a user should get banned over it, even if I didn't believe in Christ. Now I have a few Christian wikian friends that might want to put something like this in their sigs, too. What rule or something could we see that we can't have anything like that in our signatures, because of other people getting offended. I just want to know so we don't offend anyone else. --JewntansOath My talk page / My contributions / Send me an email 02:44, 18 March 2009 (UTC)
 * If you put it that way it makes a little sense. Just wanted to know... --JewntansOath My talk page / My contributions / Send me an email 15:40, 18 March 2009 (UTC)

Hi.

I am having trouble with a new wiki I made. It takes forever to bring the editing box up for the main page and I can't create a page including my own user page. HELP!!!!!!!!!! Carabera 22:20, 8 April 2009 (UTC)


 * Why don't you create a wiki about your favorite TV show then or something and try to edit it. You just may have the same problem. Carabera 00:56, 9 April 2009 (UTC)

I tried clearing my cache to get the side notice back, but it still did not work. Any other suggestions? ~Hi, it is TDI19!!!  ...To......From... 21:14, 19 April 2009 (UTC)

My past.
You like bringing up my past eh? Let me further educate you. I started out on the RuneScape Wikia, then, due to my (stupid) idea of promoting my debut on the RS Wiki, using a "SAVE_US.RSW" campaign, similar to WWE superstar Chris Jericho's SAVE_US.Y2J promo, suspicions were raised that I was a vandal, and/or Total Rune. Turns out Total Rune is my next door neighbour and friend of 6 years, who referred me to the RS Wiki for all my RuneScape needs, as I used to play RuneScape. A CheckUser was done, it was revealed that yes, I live in the same city. I put up with a verbal attack from Stinkowing's IP address on my talk page. He constantly spammed on Sannse's talk page with "CHECKUSERS DONT LIE", citing no actual proof. I was subsequently banned from the RS Wiki for no reason, except false suspicions. I gave up on the RS Wiki. I moved on to UESPWiki, where I was a successful contributor for awhile. However, numerous factors started kicking in, such as the laziness of the admins towards IP vandalism, such as giving vandal IP's a "second chance to become helpful contributors", and other matters. My patience was growing thin, and me and Rpeh started butting heads. One thing led to another, and I got banned. My account became compromised by none other than Total after he guessed my password, and he had a little fun in the Chatspike chat room. I regained control of the account, and finished what he started, then left.

I am no vandal. I am currently a Sysop, and a great contributor at the Castle Crashers Wiki. As for Total, he up and left every website he was a member of, to concentrate on work and college. In September I'll be heading up to college, the same college he's at.

Judge me if you want, it doesn't bother me. All that matters is I'm helping a small Wiki become big.  λ T 21:01, 20 April 2009 (UTC)

 * Thank you for understanding. I admit, alot of what I said on UESP was uncalled for, but at the time Rpeh just had me fuming pretty badly, and I had a feeling I was gonna be blocked eventually (it's like a sixth sense), so I did some pre-emptive striking before they took me out. I apologize to you for the idle threat, and if I seemed abit..err...jerkish?...that's not who I am.  λ T 17:41, 21 April 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for the welcome
Hello, I just wanted to thank you for the welcome to Wikia. You said if I needed help to just ask. Well, I started a new education wiki about the War on Terrorism and already started a couple of articles, but I have a problem how to do the background (skin) and the logo of the wiki, I'm not very good at that. Could you help me please, here is the url for the wiki. Also, what is the procedure for me to be the administrator at the wiki I just created? Thanks. Top Gun

No, there's nothin wrong with the links you provided and I am greatfull, it's just that I'm not so good at doing these kinds of things (inserting the collor and background to a wiki) so I wanted to find and ask a proffesional for help. And her profile said that she is the one to talk to about creating new wiki's.Top Gun

Thanks for the Welcome message

Forum:Spell Check
Maybe you didnt read the post, or you did and changed it anyway: In case you didnt see it this was on the page you merged instead of just deleting.

I know it looks that way, but I wanted it to be a capital "C" in Check, not just fix the forum. So intead of moving it i made a new page, because it would have made a redirect page also... but thanks for the heads up.

So, why was it merged? not deleted outright.? How about sharing your opinion on the subject in stead of your fancy clean up?--My Name Is Tom 18:11, 15 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Why would i ask for your help? Maybe, if i asked you the opposite of what i wanted, i might get it.--My Name Is Tom 18:33, 15 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Oh, come on boss, just foolin.... All i'm saying is slow down read a little bit. Anyway, what are your thoughts on the subject shouldn't there be some sort of spell check, in the editor, or a page to go to?--My Name Is Tom 18:43, 15 May 2009 (UTC)

wtf
why you delete my page dude.

wiki rules
can you tell be the rules regarding bullying on the varies wiki's? Does wiki rules permit continue harasment and name calling. -- Templar88 01:35, 30 May 2009 (UTC)


 * this is the most obvious example http://falloutfanon.wikia.com/wiki/File_talk:Tyler_west_concept_ships.jpg . Its then spread out over multiple pages. I have been called stupid, a retard, an idiot, a twat, a member said that they should " castrate me with a machete" adding ,"Some people shouldn't be allowed to breed".


 * on a related subject, on and unknown date and time some one masquerading under my user name joined the sites IRC and then continued to talk trash and then fool out of me. I have my suspicion on who perpetrated this and I am trying to collect evidence to show that it was not me on the IRC. I am no techy but I was interested at the login section to see that in the wiki IRC any one could use any name to login to the IRC. I am now trying to local the login logs to see it when some one logs in there use this same code (n=46328c2d@gateway/web/cgi-irc/irc.wikia.com/x-5c78a5b6f456f9f7) or is it different for every computer and user. If am correct, the code that the impostor used will be different then my past login code thus exonerating me from this. Do you have any idea how the IRC works? I am reluctant to say this but I dont even know how to get on the site. I have only been on it three types in the past. could you tell me how to get to the IRC loggs so I can further investigate this. -- Templar88 16:58, 30 May 2009 (UTC)


 * OK now its serious, some one has AGAIN gone on to the IRC and possed as me. I was talking to a friend and they told me identity theft is a serious matter. I need to know how they are doing it and how I can prove that I am NOT the one posting these things on the IRC. -- Templar88 04:04, 31 May 2009 (UTC)

Hello Templar, I was in the room when "you" were there. I believe it wasn't you, and most like C4 or Pattricks attempt at removing me from that wiki. I believe they have gone too far. Templar, there is now a new fallout fanfiction wiki (I read the rules on now allowing duplicate wikis :D), here is the link, you can join:. Just don't give in to their crap Templar, they are trolls, they want your anger, they just want you to break. //--TehK 05:48, 31 May 2009 (UTC)

Admin Tools Wiki
Hello, Michaeldsuarez. On Admin Tools Wiki, we are having a bureaucrat election at the Noticeboard, the candidates are Rswfan, Balistic Pve, MacMed (he has given up by now, though) and me. You have been a very active user of the project so I think it might be worth looking at for you, if not &mdash; sorry for bothering. Best regards, Qweedsa 11:44, 24 June 2009 (UTC)


 * Ehm, I'd like to say that you could support several candidates, not only one of them. Nevertheless, thank you for your choice! If you bother, could you explain why didn't you support me? Just to get aware of the reasons of your opinion. Thanks in advance, Qweedsa 15:38, 24 June 2009 (UTC)


 * Well, no problem. However, you have a possibility to look into what I've done since you "retired", and this might make your mind change a bit ;-) &mdash; Qweedsa 15:50, 24 June 2009 (UTC)


 * Actually, the flag itself is very pleasant to have, but it is not my priority. I think one bureaucrat is not enough for our wiki because now when Ryan is inactive, the whole wiki should wait for him to appear, not only concerning RFRs, but other important decisions, too. It seems uncomfortable both for him and for the whole community. In this sense, I'm convinced that, if I am granted these rights, I will get the opportunity to help out the wiki better. Qweedsa 16:19, 24 June 2009 (UTC)


 * Ehm. First, as far as I can conclude, my nomination was published earlier than his one, and he repeats some issues previously claimed by me. Second, a bureaucrat, as it is stated, is primarily a maintainer of the wiki whose duty is to perform the jobs mentioned above, so what's required further? Third, I certainly have some ideas which might help the wiki to attract more users, for instance those who have problems with English, &mdash; something like Wikimedian Babel. Qweedsa 16:31, 24 June 2009 (UTC)


 * No problem. Regards, Qweedsa 16:39, 24 June 2009 (UTC)

Michael, I want to share a secret with you. AND NO, IT DOES NOT HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH STAR WARS FANON.--Mekkai 16:10, 2 July 2009 (UTC)

I only have a few years left to live, and I never thought I'd say this, but, I'm afraid to die.

I should have said we instead of I. My mistake.

You probably should of paid attention in biology class. You know about Planet X? It does indeed exist, and it's heading straight towards us.--Mekkai 16:50, 2 July 2009 (UTC)


 * sigh* after what happened on Starwars Fanon, I am not going to do THAT again. It's the truth.

seriously, I dont disrupt wikians I trust.--Mekkai 18:44, 4 July 2009 (UTC)

Never Mind. You kinda sound like I caught you in a bad mood.--Mekkai 17:37, 17 July 2009 (UTC)

I'll tell you anyway. If I was to be an admin on atleast one wiki, which one should it be? Im trying to become an admin on at least one Wikia before im dead. (and for a certain reason, this wikia is out of the question).

I'll give it a thought. The reason I cant do it here is because Brandon Rhea has his account set here as well, and he may think I'm trying to "Get rid of him"--Stonebiter 17:50, 17 July 2009 (UTC)

Hello!
Hello, Michael! =] Remember me from the Star Wars Fanon? Well, it doesn't matter...

The case is that I'm now the new administrator of a wiki about fitness, while it was first created a long time ago. I simply don't know how to edit some important things on my wiki. I thought it has to be down trough a mediawiki software, and so I have installed one. But I simply don't know to use it and, more important: how can I "take to myself" the configurations of my wiki considering it wasn't created by myself? How do I use the MediaWiki software to change the actual configurations of my wiki?

Thanks! Momergil 16:27, 25 July 2009 (UTC)

New questions
Um,


 * So, if I want to change the appearence of a special page like the page used to upload a file, I need to contact a staff member? I'm talking about changing this upload special page to make appear on it some commentaries about how to proper upload a file on that wiki like how it is in the SW Fanon.
 * 1) My second question is about a template. I want to create a new template like this one to show in the Main Page of my wiki, with the difference that, instead showing the "new articles", it shows all the articles shown on this category and it appears on the left intead on the right. I tried to change it's properties as follow:


 *   Novos artigos   NewPages

to


 *   Principais artigos   Category:Principais artigos

... and in many other ways, and it didn't function! So, how can I make a template that create this function (show, in the Main Page, the articles containing in a determinated category)?

Thanks! Momergil 15:57, 30 July 2009 (UTC)

New questions (2)
Well, thanks. It's really bad I can't do that type of template...

I'm writting the mediawiki:uploadtext and I discovered some things I don't know how to do:


 * 1) How do I change the type of letter (Times New Roman to Arial, for example) inside on article?
 * 2) How do I change the collor of part of an text like the red statment here?

Thank you! Momergil 16:27, 30 July 2009 (UTC)

Problem about Wikipedia in other languages
Hallo once again, Michael! :)

I have more one question: I know that if I want to create a link to the Wikipedia, I should put something like: Star Wars. But when I do so, it allways link to the english Wikipedia. What I need to do to create a link to, for example, the portuguese Wikipedia? And what about a link to the portugues wiktionary? I also just know the command for the english wiktionary...

Thank you! Momergil 22:34, 30 July 2009 (UTC)


 * Thank you, MIchael! =] And what about the other questions? x)

And, if you don't mind, I have one more question:

Why, in Star Wars Fanon, the template "improving" has a format that took the center of the page, is "small" and have no peaks, while one my version of the template, that is the same as the SW Fanon, but in portuguese, has that different format (peaks and takes the entire space)?

Thank you! Momergil 17:46, 3 August 2009 (UTC)


 * Thanks, Michael! It really worked =]

The unique problem is that after I chaged that MediaWiki configuration, the monaco sidebar changed too! :x And I didn't want to change that ^^ It doesn't responds to the configuration on the Monaco sidebar anymore. Do you know how to fix that? =]
