Request to Consider Closing PvX@Wikia
Sarah,

I know that Wikia's interest is not necessarily the same as ours, especially since our fork. I also know that our site's contributors haven't exactly earned your respect with the way that we chose to leave Wikia. However, our community cares deeply for the game and players of Guild Wars and want them to have the best information available to them, and I'm sure that Wikia understands that sentiment.

Currently, our old site is in complete disarray. The vast majority of our users left Wikia for our new site and it's doing very well, which has left only an extremely small remnant of mostly trollish users on the old site. At this point, so many of our builds are outdated that it would be impossible to clean up and people are still visiting our site only to get false information which forces them to be redirected to our site.

Again, I understand if you would be opposed to helping us, but by keeping PvX@Wikia open, you are hurting the players of Guild Wars. Many people are being led to that site only to find character builds that no longer work and a completely discarded site.

Thanks for your time, and I hope you'll consider my request. Karate Jesus  04:49, 25 February 2011  (UTC)
 * Hi Karate Jesus, Thanks for your message and concern about your old wiki. But as we have mentioned in the past, the wiki will remain open and available to current and new community members. Best, --Sarah (help forum | blog) 18:29, February 28, 2011 (UTC)
 * Well, if you're comfortable misleading players, then that's fine. I'll do my best to control the hell hole that it's become. Karate Jesus  04:51, 1 March 2011  (UTC)

A simple but interesting question
I know I am asking a very odd but to me intriging question. What does it take to become one of the Wikia Helpers? They interest me because I see some staff add users to the group recently... What exactly does it take? Hope you can give me an answer, Thank you Jempcorp {user page | talk} 21:38, February 25, 2011 (UTC).
 * OH! Do you mind changing my preferences to the skin Wikia? It is on monobook and I want it changed. It would be much better if everyone could change the skin for their preferences on their own! We should be able to choose. Thanks, Jempcorp {user page | talk} 17:34, February 28, 2011 (UTC).
 * Hi, you can change your skin choice in your preferences. Helper positions are generally listed on our hiring page Happy editing, --Sarah (help forum | blog) 18:29, February 28, 2011 (UTC)
 * I cant change my skin. The staff disabled it for the Wikia skin, so I need someone else to change it. Jempcorp {user page | talk} 17:05, March 1, 2011 (UTC).
 * So are you saying your skin is set to monobook and you want it set to the new look? --Sarah (help forum | blog) 18:05, March 9, 2011 (UTC)
 * It does not matter now, as the skin changing is available under User Profile. I was still looking under the Appearence tab. Thanks anyway for all your help Sarah, I know you must be very busy — Jempcorp {user page | talk} 07:36, March 11, 2011 (UTC).

Can you delete this Wiki?
Hi! I accidentally created an Answers Wiki with an incorrect name and had to create another one with the right name. I accidentally named it "James Cameron's Titanic Answers Answers". Can you delete it? You can find the link here: http://jamescameronstitanic.answers.wikia.com. Thanks!

Adding wiki to drop down list
Hello Sarah,

I was wondering whether Children's Books Wiki could be added to the Lifestyle drop down at the top of all the pages on Wikia? I know there are some wikis larger than us, but based on the number of articles, CBW is only smaller than these wikis on the current drop down:


 * How To
 * Vintage Patterns
 * Roman Churches
 * UK Housing
 * Genealogy
 * Logopedia
 * Ice Hockey

So in other words, we are the seventh-largest out of 17.

Not trying to be pushy, but it would be great if we could attract some new users! I have recently revamped the main page to make it more user-friendly, and we also have Twitter and Facebook accounts.

Thanks for all your work at Wikia! The continued updates and extra features - particularly the Layout Builder - are much appreciated.


 * Bethel23 (talk)
 * Hi Bethel, Thanks for the request. I passed it along to the lifestyles team, who will be in touch if they decide to add it. Happy to hear you like the new features! --Sarah (help forum | blog) 18:05, March 9, 2011 (UTC)

Unblock me
This is Supersaiyian11 please unban me on death note fanon wiki. I think my ban is too long for such a minor thing as having a alternate account. I have dicused this with other users and they agree that 3 months is too long a ban for such a minor rule breaking. Do this small task for me and i will do something for you in return. Anything you want but only once.
 * You need to get in touch with the local admin who blocked you. --Sarah (help forum | blog) 18:50, March 9, 2011 (UTC)

Blocked.
Hello Sarah. I am an admin at the Metroid Fanon wiki, and a patroller at the Alien species wiki. I have just been blocked and stripped of rights on the former. The culprit here is none other than Piratehunter. He accuses me of sockpuppeting, but refuses to release his proof. When I went to ask why he had done this, his friend RoyboyX called what I had done, a "fail" to Pirate, and then proceded to post it on wikitroid's IRC quotes list for the world to observe. I request that you get to the bottom of this, and you will find that both of them have been problem users in the past.

Need Some Advice!
Hey, Sarah! Judging by the amount of new messages left on your talk page, I understand that you are extremely busy, but I do need your help. Do you mind giving me some advice on a few things? I need advice on how to create a template page the simple way for my signature. I tried it on my newly created wiki, James Cameron's Titanic Wiki, and I could not get it to work. Then, I typed my signature code into my preferences on the same Wiki and it still comes out as. I could really use some advice. I could also use some advice on something else. I have really been trying to draw more and more users to James Cameron's Titanic Wiki, and how many do I have, not including myself? One. I could really use some help advertising for it (even though my Wiki doesn't meet all of the standards to be able to get a spotlight). Is there another way to advertise for it? I created a blog about it on the Community Central and it was useless, because it drew one user to my Wiki, the only one (besides myself) that bothers to check out the Wiki and edit it. Can you give me some tips on how to expand my Wiki and advertise for it too? Thanks!

00:02, March 3, 2011 (UTC)Tsu'tey te Rongloa Ateyitan


 * If you are going to do a template sig, you need to make two templates on ever wiki you go to. One will have the code of the template: The other will just be the . Your preferences should also contain this. You need to have these templates on every wiki you go to.--

Block
I'm sorry, but the community on The Charmed Wiki is now getting along so much better since we blocked HalliwellManor. I've done nothing at all, and you basically block me for no reason at all. It's ironically the same reason we gave HalliwellManor, which tells me he has something to do with the block. I'm actually quite offended. I have never been blocked before and this is my first time, I wasn't even warned that I was going to get blocked? It's a HUGE slap in the face. And really a week?

Dear Sarah Manley,

There is a problem with a user named QueenOrangeSoda. At the total drama fanfiction wikia, she has harrassed users, vandalizd, uploaded porn and hurt users. She comes in our Chantago and bothers us. She has made many multiple accounts and can even make them whn she is banned. Admins can't even stop her. How do we stop her from making some many accounts and still ban her.

Hello Sarah,

My name is Dmitry, I am editing TLBB Wikia. But since yesterday I can't edit any pages on TLBB Wikia, because when I press Edit buttin I can't see the editing window - just blank white page. I checked in 4 browsers (IE, Chtome, Firefox and Opera) and the result was the same - blank page. I checked with a friend and he has the same sad result. Can you please check what is wrong with TLBB Wikia and if possible change it back to editing mode.

Thank you very much for your help!

With best regards,

Deleting our Wiki's Images
Hey, Sarah. I know that you're unwilling to close PvX@Wikia, so I'm not here to beg for that again. However, after looking over the site, I've realized that around half of our images are copyright violations. Is there any way that Wikia could just delete all of our images? We only really need the skill images, and Anet allows those under free use. We can replace those images within a day or two.

I've contacted a few of the copyright holders of the images on the site to alert them to the violations. Anet, Nintendo, and Disney are the holders of most of the copyrights being violated.

I would remove them myself, but I just don't have time and none of the other admins are active anymore. Karate Jesus  22:35, 20 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Oh, and we use a different image license, hence the violations. If we used Wikia's standard image licenses, it wouldn't be a problem. If we can just convert to Wikia's standard image licenses, then maybe it would be fine, but I've heard that's illegal (I'm not sure). Karate Jesus  22:37, 20 March 2011 (UTC)
 * As I mentioned before, this is a decision for the existing community which you have decided to leave. Good luck on your new wiki. Best, --Sarah (help forum | blog) 00:15, March 22, 2011 (UTC)
 * Did you read what I just said or completely dismiss it? I'm still active on the old wiki trying to help hold it together and keep it from exploding into a trollfest of epic proportions. If you would prefer that I not be active at that wiki anymore, then you'd need to promote someone on that wiki who is, or make me a bcrat so that I can.
 * Otherwise, this is the request of the wiki. Karate Jesus  <font face="Arial" color="gray" size="1">19:04, 22 March 2011  (UTC)

Inappropriate behavior
I would just like to report a misuse of power over at a wiki. And admin barged into a conversation, proceeded to tell everyone how stupid and moronic they were, claimed he was "very pissed for off-wiki reasons" and then said that he would block anyone if they responded t his message. I responded. My message was this:

''"First of all, Piratehunter, take a step back. Calm down. If you are angry at off-wiki business, then deal with it there. Being angry does not give you rights to wave your administrative rights in everyone’s face. Being an administrator entitles the responsibility to deal with conflicts within the wikia peacefully, not by threatening users with blocks. And frankly you’ve blown it much farther out of proportion then it was before. And I swear that if you block me from this message, I will take this matter directly to wikia staff, and we’ll see what they have to say about this. [As for the real matter on hand, I think that descriptors are important when they help distinguish between certain articles, but I don't like the fact that we need a "the" and "a" on every article. It takes up space and newer users when creating links might link to articles that don't exist. Then we have to reprimand said user and fix the problem. While it doesn't take up a lot of time, it isn't efficient. I quite like the ULFs because they're easy to link to and the most professional name that we can give to them.]"''

The area in the brackets was the part of my message that pertained to the conversation at hand. I request that you give this user a review, and deal with him accordingly. I have been blocked for three days with the reason given, "Warning was given, was ignored". I trust that you will deal with this user with the utmost speed. Complete Supremacy 22:19, March 21, 2011 (UTC)

EDIT: It has come to my attention that I did not link you to the wiki. 


 * You should take this up with any other local admins first. If there are none, they don't want to get involved, or they can't do anything about it, send a message to Special:Contact. It's easier for staff to deal with it that way.
 * I don't believe the other admins wish to get involved. I don't think that the message is needed though, another user has just reported the same admin as well. Thank you for your assistance though. Complete Supremacy 23:06, March 21, 2011 (UTC)

New Badges
Can you create new badges for all the wikis? We could add Platinum badges for 1,000 of something and badges or creating pages. It could help us.........I'm not so sure....... but I'd like to see some of those badges. Like an Adopter badge for Adopting the wiki! (I'll get that badge on my wiki!)

 * Alternatively, please ban Small Owl for threatening me. Anyway, I merely undid his edit to the adoption's request archive. He is putting in a new request and I told him twice to not edit the archive but the regular page. It seems he still does not understand though.--

Background problems!
Hello Sarah! I have no idea why this suddenly got messed up, because it worked not so long ago. What I have done on www.TheDemonCycle.wikia.com is to change the background colour and image in the CSS code. And as mentioned it worked out great at first, but now, when you try to edit or create an entry that background is also affected. I'm not really sure how to explain it, so it would be much easier if you just quickly checked it out.

Thanks!

Our Wikia is dying!... Please HELP!
Dear Sarah, My name is Dmitry, I am editing TLBB Wikia (tlbbeu.wikia.com). Since last week none of our contributors can edit or add any article. Instead after clicking on Edit button we see white screen (I can provide screenshot if needed). We've tested it at different browsers at different computers and networks: the result is the same.There must be something with our Wikia settings. Please help us and unblock our Wikia editing option!

Thank you very much for your help!

With great hope,

Dmitry.

A few doubts !
Hi Staff mem..( U are right ?!) I've got a few doubts, mind if u can clear 'em for me ? : Thanks in advance ! User:Roranoa zoro11:03,3/25/2011 (UTC)
 * 1) In a certain wikia, the navigation bar doesnt change no matter what I do !
 * 2) Can we use custom signature to a particular wikia and keep the default sign for other wikias ? ( I really want it to be that way : [ It's really buggin' me ! ]
 * 3) How to create a bot [ Please explain ! ]
 * Hi there -- Yes I am a staff member :).
 * the custom signatures is a part of your preferences and so applies everywhere not in just one place.
 * You can read about bots here. I don't have one, so I can't be of much help on creating one.
 * Best of luck, --Sarah (help forum | blog) 20:50, March 25, 2011 (UTC)

You cannot make Monobook the default. It can only be made your personal skin--


 * I'm not sure he's talking about a Wikia wiki. Non-Wikia wikis can make the default skin Monobook, but it should already be that way.


 * Scratch that, after looking at the fixed link it is a Wikia wiki. As Godisme said, you can only make it your personal skin.
 * As Godisme and Monchoman45 said, this can only be a personal preference and not set for your whole wiki. --Sarah (help forum | blog) 20:50, March 25, 2011 (UTC)

Two wikis the same
Hi I have a wiki about the graphic novel which i created(url: http://Boneville.wikia.com/) but i notice that there is another wiki(url: http://Bone.wikia.com/) aout the same thing but with not as many images, templates. I'm just wondering since my wiki is a bit better would it be possible to delete the other one and take it's url: Bone.wikia.com and make it a redirect to my wiki.

Just asking

ShehbazAhmed 18:46, April 3, 2011 (UTC)


 * Hi there. We do allow users to create multiple wikis on the same topic, so this is not an appropriate reason to delete a wiki. You can, however, reach out to editors and admins on that wiki and ask if they would like to move their content over to the larger wiki, and close the smaller one. If we have their approval for the action (or if you show a sincere effort to contact them for a few months and there is no activity or response from them), then you can submit this request to Special:Contact and we will consider it.

Armored Core Wiki: Spam Filter Issues
Greetings there, I am from the Armored Core Wiki and was wondering if you could help me with a problem.

The spam filter is blocking us from creating a page. Here is the following text:

The page you wanted to save was blocked by the spam filter. This is probably caused by a blacklisted link or pagename.

The following link, text or pagename is what triggered our spam filter: AWA

If you think this is wrong, please contact us here. Please, provide a copy of this message when reporting any problem.

Return to KARASAWA-MK2. Sorry, your edit could not be saved. (210)

In an attempt to fix this problem, I clicked the link to VSTF wiki to try to report this, but for some reason it keeps saying that I am unallowed to edit the page to report the problem. Here is what it says when I click the report false positive button: You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reason: You do not have permission to edit pages You can view and copy the source of this page:

Could you help me? I would really appreciate it. Farmboy28 22:09, April 4, 2011 (UTC)

Hello again!
Hi, Sarah! I have a few favors to ask you. I dunno if you will be able to, but if you can, can you please remove the badge system from Battle: Los Angeles Wiki? I just created it and don't feel that it would help my Wiki after the problems it caused for me. Also, I have to talk to the other administrator on the Wiki in order to do this first, but you may recieve a message from me within a few days requesting the deletion of James Cameron's Titanic Wiki. I think it's too hard to waste my time on a Wiki with a topic that is not of interest to most people anymore. Besides, I was unable to cite a lot of my sources and do not feel that I could create a reliable encyclopedia on the film with such little information given on most of the characters. It's been hard for me to do it, and a lot of the articles on the website are stubs. In the meantime, can you delete another Wiki for me? Here is the URL: James Cameron's Titanic Answers. Thanks for everything!

I would keep it, but it's too hard. It's very rare to find a fan of the film like me out there that's a Wikia member, and I was unable to cite my sources, it'll be hard for someone else to cite them. Thanks so much again!

We need Your Help!
Sarah, hello hope you are having a wonderful evening. I am the Bureaucrat from the Charmed Wiki. I know you have probably had enough from this wiki but we really need your help. You know the user HalliwellManorAkaDsc385? We blocked him from the Charmed Wiki and you blocked him from the Community Wiki and his own Charmed Legacy Wiki. He is creating so many accounts to edit on the Charmed Wiki, we have attempted to block all of them, but he just keeps coming back. Users have left because of him Sarah, you have to see this. I know you can see this; I have received so many complaint emails. So has my other Bureaucrat and a few of my admins. We started a vote as the Staff suggested to see whether users wanted HalliwellManorAkaDsc385 to be blocked, and they all voted yes bar one user. I think that is enough don't you. To get to the point, we cannot take anymore from HalliwellManorAkaDsc385, can you please do something? Block his entire IP, Globally block him? --<font face="Estrangelo Edessa"> Khan - Talk - Email 19:55, April 12, 2011 (UTC)

 * I am also an editor on the Charmed Wiki, and I have NEVER seen someone (who has been blocked 3 times) continue to come back. I just received this message from him. He simply doesn't get the meaning of "Blocked". He is a nuisance!
 * You keep repeating the same thing "leave Charmed Wiki" ... I think not. I am not going to be pushed away from a wiki I contributed significantly over 2 years by newbies who insinuate they are better than me and that they are completely innocent of any wrong doing. As PiperHollyCharmed and I have said, the reasons for blocking me are frivolous and ridiculous. I am expected to wait out a block that is completely unjustifiable when Khan and Andrew didn't wait out their block and contributed as unregistered users and when Glenn was unblocked after only a day after a block I created on him for consistently locking articles. There is absolutely no reason I should have to wait out a block that is completely ludicrous when other people didn't wait out blocks that were 100% justifiable. Dsc385 00:07, April 13, 2011 (UTC)

- He continues to claim he isn't PiperHollyCharmed, but the wikia staff has already confirmed the same ip address. He is using, HalliwellManorAkaDsc385, PiperHollyCharmed, Dsc385 and now SydneyPrescott... and no end in sight. He simply doesn't understand the concept of being "blocked". I just wanted to back Khan, and let you know what's going on from another wiki user. I'm just getting REALLY tired of this user...he won't go away! Buffymybasset-- 00:13, April 13, 2011 (UTC)

p.s. his lack of understanding "being blocked", is quite scary. He stalks the page...it creeps me out.
