Featured Editor
Congrats Auror! You are the Featured Editor for April 2012! I've added the template to your userpage which you are free to move/remove. And you told me nominating you was a bad idea, guess you were wrong! ;) Once again, congratulations! 17:18, April 1, 2012 (UTC)

Su family
Hi Auror. I previously moved Su family to Su family (Lunar Lakes) since there are now 2 of the same families. I made the one in Shang Simla while renaming the page, but forgot to re-write the page to the Lunar Lakes Su family. I will rename it again now.  Nikel  Talk  –  Vote!  02:27, July 6, 2012 (UTC)

Licensing Images
Regarding to the message you left for TheSims23, I think there's some kind of issue with the image upload. The file will not be automatically copyrighted even if you already choose it. Special:MultipleUpload isn't affected with this however. This recently happens to me, and I doubt I'm the only one.  Nikel  Talk  –  Vote  –  Guess!  09:02, July 27, 2012 (UTC)

Hmm, odd... It seems like it only happens to ME?  Nikel  Talk  –  Vote  –  Guess!  15:32, July 27, 2012 (UTC)

RE: Licensing Images
May I ask which image I didn't licence? I ask because I remember that I licensed all the images except this one but only because it was supposed to go in a gallery and there was no option for licencing.  Simming is my Life!  Talk  11:16, July 27, 2012 (UTC)


 * It turns out that what Nikel said above is true. There's some kind of issue with the image upload. I went to this page and all pictures of mine that weren't licensed, were uploaded by clicking 'Add photo' (1st pic.) while pictures that I uploaded by clicking 'Photo' (2nd pic.) on the page have normal licence.

RE:Category:Ghost
Hey Auror! Sorry if I'm confusing you about that, but what I've noticed is that on a lot of pages the Sim is listed as deceased in their playability, but it says they have the Normal life state. What I was doing was fixing that: it doesn't matter if they don't have a tombstone or if they don't show up as a ghost. If they are deceased, then shouldn't they be labeled as ghosts? If I've done something wrong, I'd be happy to revert the edits. 22:34, November 23, 2012 (UTC)

Notice about the Warning template
Hello fellow administrator. I wanted to make you aware of an upcoming changeover regarding the Warning template. You can see the discussion of this change here.

Starting now, a new warning template will be available for use. This template is currently available at NewWarning. However, on April 2, the new warning template will be moved to Warning and the old warning template will be retired. Please use this transition period to test out the new template before the full changeover. In the period leading up to the changeover, please report any bugs or issues, and offer any suggestions, in the new template discussion

The new template does away with the parameter of the old template. You can now make your warning more specific by filling in the parameter. Type will automatically load in text depending on the type and the level you select. Additionally, certain types have multiple 'levels', ranging from 1 to 3, with 1 being the least severe, and 3 being the most severe phrasing of the warning message itself. The types are:


 * Vandalism (entered as 'vandal#') warns against making non-constructive edits. The 'vandal1' message is the template's default message if no type is entered.
 * Blanking pages or sections (entered as 'blank#') warns against removing content from entire pages or sections of pages.
 * Removing content (entered as 'remove#') warns against removing useful and accurate content from pages.
 * Violating file policy (entered as 'file#') warns users that upload files or images in violation of the Image and File policy.
 * Disruptive behavior (entered as 'disrupt') warns users that attack other users, engage in edit warring, etc.
 * Sockpuppetry (entered as 'sock') warns users that are suspected of having control over multiple unauthorized accounts.
 * Additionally, there is a custom option available if none of the pre-existing types suit your needs. If you choose to use a custom message, the parameter should be set to 'custom' and the optional parameter will hold your message. If says anything other than 'custom' and the parameter is filled in, the custom message will not display.

So, to sum it up, the parameters are:
 *  : You should fill this parameter in, unless you're alright with displaying the default, non-specific warning text.
 *  : Fill this in only if you've filled in 'custom' under the parameter; otherwise, leave this blank.
 *  : This parameter is mandatory - include your signature here.
 *  : If you want to include additional information to the recipient, you can fill in this parameter. The text you enter will appear below your signature but above the 'boilerplate' message at the bottom of the notification.

One last thing... remember to substitute the template, just as you do when you use Warning. This is to ensure that any future changes to the template don't alter how it appears on user talk pages.

If you've got any questions about this new warning or its implementations, feel free to drop me a message. --  LostInRiverview talk ~ blog 04:09, March 19, 2013 (UTC)

Images from families (The Sims 2)
Hi Auror, how are you?

I have a doubt. How can I get a picture of a family from The Sims 2, to post in an article here? I've tried searching in SimPE, but I couldn't. The type of photo I speak is like this File:Burb family.png.

Thank you,

The 3rd Cover of The Sims 3 is a Brazilian Cover (the buttons got giltched trough after the edit)

Re:Hot
Yup. :) It didn't look like it was a valid category anyway because there was only one sim in it. 03:00, June 4, 2013 (UTC)

RE: Malcolm Landgraab's lifetime want
Woah, that's pretty old. I almost had no idea what you were talking about. I *was* going to check that with SimPE too, but since SimPE always takes a long time to load the stuff, I kept postponing that... even until now. Because I used to play Uber-Megahood and thought Malcolm's LTW was to earn §100,000, I thought the info was wrong. Then I recalled it just now that I used Sim Modder to change the entire residents' LTWs to suit their personality.

Anyway, thanks for checking that up! I just checked it with SimPE too, and boy, you're right.  Nikel  Talk  –  Vote!  07:49, June 4, 2013 (UTC)

Re: Sims 3 Headshots
I used the program S3PE (link here to download). Once installed, enter the game, select the family and send the Sim to change appearance, or change clothes - open the CAS somehow. Save the Sim (clicking in the thumbnail), quit game, open S3PE. Open the file "Name of Sim.sim3", it's saved in the SavedSims folder. Click on the SNAP resource whose headshot you want to select. Select Export -> To File. Specify the location you want to save it to. It's done, with a detail, the image has a transparent background, but just use any photo editor to darken.

Hope this helps. If you have any questions, ask me! :-)

 * One more thing. Do you would like I add the headshots of Sims with black background (Sims of Lucky Palms, Sunlit Tides, Monte Vista, Hidden Springs etc)? I particularly prefer this type of picture, because it's more similar with The Sims 2, however, not sure if it's necessary.

Standard bio
I don't think it is anymore. The "Hi! My name is..." bio is rather strange or pointless and I'm thinking about omitting it.  Nikel  Talk  –  Vote!  17:20, June 24, 2013 (UTC)

RE: Rewards
Woah, thanks, Auror! That's so unexpected, because I thought you'd reply the above message. Due to real life business, I needed to catch up with the late edits, so I couldn't quite get involved with the community recently. But anyway, thanks for the awards! :)  Nikel  Talk  –  Vote!  17:34, June 24, 2013 (UTC)

Hi! I came across some unesscisary content that I don't know if it needs to be removed or not. So I wanted to ask you to take a look at this article here.
