Power aspiration
Please stop inserting Power to Sims with no aspiration! I've said it twice, here and here. Please do NOT insert any more of this because we haven't known the validity of the Power aspiration! You keep ignoring the fact that we cannot be sure about this aspiration yet. If you need to rebut this, please discuss it first in Talk:Power (aspiration), or we'll be considered to start edit warring.  Nikel  Talk  –  Vote!  05:11, June 19, 2013 (UTC)

RE: Editing mistake
Hello! :) Well, if you think of it: the mistake is the game recognizing them as male, not the appearance being female. Because when the developers created such Sims, they were supposed to be female, but somehow they are not recognized as such and because of that they act like males or adults, but that's not how it should be. Do you agree? -- RoseGui ( talk here ) 14:04, June 22, 2013 (UTC)

They have female appearances, but we edit them as male adults, because game recognizes them as male adults. Mate1234 (talk ) 15:07, June 22, 2013 (UTC)
 * I don't think we don't need to be that strict. If we know it's a mistake, isn't this category good enough for that? -- RoseGui [[File:Thanks rose.png]] ( talk here ) 14:10, June 22, 2013 (UTC)


 * It´s best to write correct, just like in game, if she is actually male, then write that she is male. Mate1234
 * No, they are actually female. That mistake is the way the game recognizes them. -- RoseGui [[File:Thanks rose.png]] ( talk here ) 14:14, June 22, 2013 (UTC)
 * Not correct. They only have female child appearance. Mate1234


 * Thing is, not many people are aware at this, and if there's a reader taking a quick glance, they will be confused for sure; and might even try to "correct" the article again because what's seen is clearly a child. That is why it's stated explicitly in the article itself, because article is to read, and why there's the Category:Gender confused Sims.  Nikel  Talk  –  Vote!  14:33, June 22, 2013 (UTC)


 * In the text is written: ˝Though she has female child appearence, game recognizes her as male adult...˝ That explains everything. Mate1234
 * I know, Mate. You're repeating what I said. People just need a quick glance at the infobox about her stats, but when they read the article, they will eventually know about their glitch.  Nikel  Talk  –  Vote!  14:40, June 22, 2013 (UTC)

Zo Curious
So I just attempted to bring back Zo Curious, and an infinite amount of errors happened. I apologize for not believing you. However, the information about Hamlet Dane isn't really worth noting. Ѧüя◎ґ (talk) 19:38, July 2, 2013 (UTC)

Glabe Curious
While it is implied that Glabe Curious was married to Glarn, we don't actually know her true relation to him. Ѧüя◎ґ (talk) 12:26, July 9, 2013 (UTC)

I think that´s because she was seen in sleepwear with Glarn, she raised Lola and Chloe (after Glarn possibly left her) and I put this in infobox: 
 * spouse = (possibly)

Original appearances
Absolutely! I love the original appearances! Ѧüя◎ґ (talk) 12:38, July 9, 2013 (UTC)

Check out these templates: Template:PersonalityTable and Template:InterestTable. Feel free to add them to Sim pages. Ѧüя◎ґ (talk) 12:52, July 9, 2013 (UTC)

Most definitely. Right now there are several hidden Sim articles on the wiki. Ѧüя◎ґ (talk) 13:00, July 9, 2013 (UTC)

RE:Gallery (Darleen Dreamer)
It's an unneeded fanon image that has no business being on a canon article. —Random Ranaun (Talk to me! ) 00:13, July 11, 2013 (UTC)


 * Please stop re-adding the image to the gallery. —Random Ranaun (Talk to me! ) 17:28, July 11, 2013 (UTC)


 * I'll say it again, they're unneeded. We already have the headshots and storytelling photos to show their original appearances. —Random Ranaun (Talk to me! ) 20:47, July 11, 2013 (UTC)


 * Well, I'm telling you to stop adding them, and I've already told you why. —Random Ranaun (Talk to me! ) 20:54, July 11, 2013 (UTC)

Edit Warring
You and Random Ranaun have reverted several of each others' edits to Darleen Dreamer in the past day. This is considered edit warring and is against the rules. The page has been locked to prevent editing for a short time. I strongly suggest discussing the edit at Talk:Darleen Dreamer before taking any further actions to edit this page. --  LostInRiverview talk ~ blog 21:36, July 11, 2013 (UTC)
 * Seeing as this issue goes beyond Darleen Dreamer, it would be more appropriate to discuss the issue in a forum post. If you or Random Ranaun don't start a thread, I probably will, to resolve this issue. In the meantime, note that reverting another user's edits to a page (either by using the undo button, or by continually re-adding the same information) three or more times within a 24-hour period is considered edit warring and is against the rules. If you engage in edit warring, you will be temporarily blocked from making edits to the wiki. Therefore, I strongly suggest that you talk about your disagreement rather than continuing to contradict Random Ranaun with your edits. If you have any questions about this, please let me know on my talk page. --  LostInRiverview talk ~ blog 21:50, July 11, 2013 (UTC)
 * I've started a forum thread to discuss this disagreement - Forum:Adding potentially non-canon images to articles. Please go there and explain your side of the issue ASAP. --  LostInRiverview talk ~ blog 22:05, July 11, 2013 (UTC)

The black background is added in, since TS3 headshots have white backgrounds by default. Panerai uses a program known as PhotoFiltre to add the black backgrounds in. Ѧüя◎ґ (talk) 13:17, July 12, 2013 (UTC)

Resurrection
Sure, but Skip Broke can be resurrected normally without any tinkering done. Ѧüя◎ґ (talk) 18:02, July 13, 2013 (UTC)

Octavius Capp
I apologize for that. I didn't realize he appeared in The Sims 3. Ѧüя◎ґ (talk) 05:56, July 17, 2013 (UTC)

Possibly
When adding the tag, it adds the "Divorced" category to her page. This is something we want to avoid. Also, there are several siblings or other family family members that are not featured on each other's family trees (Ex: Bert Alto and Nick Alto). Besides, why would Glarn leave his two natural born daughters with his ex-wife. This is also considering Chloe nor Lola have any memories of Glarn. Ѧüя◎ґ (talk) 06:38, July 17, 2013 (UTC)

Male/Female
Hey Mate. For consistency's sake we're going to remove conflicting perimeters (e.g. age and gender) for gender-confused Sims or Sims that do not necessarily follow their thumbnail's appearance. However, a note will still be left of the quirk that Sim may have. Ѧüя◎ґ (talk) 17:34, July 31, 2013 (UTC)

RE: Headshots
Headshots? Actually, Mate, I'd like it better if you can replace it without the Simoleons and hearts to keep them consistent with every other headshot. I don't even like the current one we have.  Nikel  Talk  –  Vote!  08:23, August 6, 2013 (UTC)
 * Sure... I guess. Let's just see how it goes. Do you have a good reason why you wouldn't use the black background?


 * Also, make sure to just replace the headshot because we won't need two of different headshots.  Nikel  Talk  –  Vote!  08:30, August 6, 2013 (UTC)
 * I don't know why nobody has never been bothered with them. Rationally, if you would change the headshots, you should replace it with black background due to consistency. They've broken the consistency for 6 years...  Nikel  Talk  –  Vote!  08:38, August 6, 2013 (UTC)
 * Some TS3 headshots are white because that's the way they are. Panerai has made great effort to change all those headshots with white background (actually transparent) into black. We're not talking about creativity here, we're talking about consistency. If every single Sim has an A, why should these two Sims have a B on their own?  Nikel  Talk  –  Vote!  09:21, August 6, 2013 (UTC)
 * Let me just see how it looks like, as long as it's not too eye-catching.  Nikel  Talk  –  Vote!  15:32, August 6, 2013 (UTC)
 * Okay, it's definitely not as bad as I thought. I thought you would scatter the icons all around the headshot. :p That's better than the previous version, although I'd still prefer a plain background.  Nikel  Talk  –  Vote!  16:17, August 6, 2013 (UTC)

Birthday
Hi, I just noticed that our birthdays are on the same dates. I will really wish you a happy birthday by then :)

RE: Shoving Sim
Well, that one information has been there pretty old. I'll check it out in my SimPE.  Nikel  Talk  –  Vote!  17:46, August 6, 2013 (UTC)
 * I see where the information came from... The old information compared the Sims by their instance numbers, instead of the file numbers. You see, the Burbs are the second family according to the instance number, but they are around 160 according to the file numbers.


 * I'll try to investigate the other neighborhoods. Thanks for the info!  Nikel  Talk  –  Vote!  18:04, August 6, 2013 (UTC)


 * By the way, do you have any idea why John has an early instance while he was created late?  Nikel  Talk  –  Vote!  18:05, August 6, 2013 (UTC)


 * You know what, I've just checked Veronaville, Riverblossom Hills, and Belladonna Cove. Apparently the table depended on the instance number instead of file number. It means that The Sims 2 neighborhoods have had their list wrong all along. Some are correct because some Sims like Consort Capp happen to have lower instance number AND file number than the second shover. You seem to have known it too. Can you fix it?


 * Also, if you're not busy... Can you double-check it in game if the table is correct? You don't have to if you're certain or busy.  Nikel  Talk  –  Vote!  18:14, August 6, 2013 (UTC)

Images
Please stop uploading images that are covered in radial blur. The reason all your other images of this nature were deleted was because they were deemed as low quality in the outcome of this thread. This image comes under that clause and any future images you upload that are also covered primarily in radial blur will be deleted too. Let me know if you have any questions. 19:56, August 7, 2013 (UTC)
 * If you're going to upload images in that style, at least remove the radial blur. It obscures the image so much that it can be marked as low quality. I'd honestly prefer if you would just upload plain images without any modifications but if you're dying to play around in Photoshop that badly then at least don't blur them so much. 20:17, August 7, 2013 (UTC)
 * Because you've clearly misunderstood, I'll say again. Do not upload images that are excessively blurred. This goes for your Michael Bachelor image. If you even read my initial message you would know that the image, as well as your other blurred images, were deleted on the basis of being low quality. TheXmas' images didn't even have that much blur; yours on the other hand are almost 100% blurred.


 * I've deleted your Michael Bachelor image once again. If you re-upload that particular image, or any other image of yours that was deleted on the basis of being low quality then you'll find yourself listed on TSW:ER. You're welcome to make images styled like the ones made by TheXmas but don't blur the image so much that it obscures the image, or better yet don't blur them at all. 22:46, August 7, 2013 (UTC)
 * You can upload that style of images but don't blur them. 13:21, August 8, 2013 (UTC)
 * I'd still prefer for you not to bother with blurring (and colour correcting by the looks of it) but it's admittedly not as bad as the other images. It's passable and I'll let it stay for now but don't be surprised if another admin has a completely different opinion of these images. 18:29, August 8, 2013 (UTC)
 * You can rename files yourself via the Rename button on the toolbar. You'd have to update the name on the appropriate articles but it's a lot easier than re-uploading. I've already done this for you. 22:24, August 8, 2013 (UTC)

RE: Images
Deleted.  Nikel  Talk  –  Vote!  05:49, August 22, 2013 (UTC)

It will be deleted when it needs to be. After all, you're not the one who uploaded it. I also checked the painting texture in the game files. The woman does wear a pair of jeans, and her lower lip at the bottom right picture is rather big.  Nikel  Talk  –  Vote!  04:11, August 27, 2013 (UTC)

Ivy Copur
Just a note, Ivy Copur from Sim State University does exist. It's the article that doesn't exist yet. It would be fine to leave redlink at the disambiguation page in case the article is created in the future.  Nikel  Talk  –  Vote!  04:04, September 15, 2013 (UTC)

Hi, Mate1234.

Please refrain from making changes to sims main page pictures this process can be very time consuming and in all respect the pictures besides Mortimer Goth and I love some of the pictures you've done have come out blurry.

Request for community input
Oh, I didn't actually get the real Big Boss in the game, I made a sim who looks like him, yet I did manage to have the REAL Big Boss call my sim through a bit of tweaking in SimPE.

Rollback nomination
Hey, just thought I should let you that I've nominated you for rollback rights on the wiki. Please go here to accept or decline your nomination. Should you accept, another bureaucrat will review the nomination and grant you usage of the rollback tool. Thanks and good luck! :) 19:29, October 21, 2013 (UTC)
 * Your nomination has been approved. Congratulations, Mate! Dharden (talk) 22:56, October 21, 2013 (UTC)

Revert?
Just because some random users posted theories on the top of the page, doesn't mean you can freely remove them as a punishment. You could just put those to the bottom rather than reverting the edits. Next time you have to be careful, as this would potentially lead to an edit war. --<font face="Verdana" color="RoyalBlue">Frostwalker <font face="Comic Sans MS" color="DarkOrange">Talk to me! 15:24, October 25, 2013 (UTC)
 * Well, that was something. However, it would be deemed unecessary to remove their theories only because they didn't obey the rules. I'm gonna take this matter to a discussion page. --<font face="Verdana" color="RoyalBlue">Frostwalker <font face="Comic Sans MS" color="DarkOrange">Talk to me! 17:41, October 25, 2013 (UTC)

1,000 Edits

Revert button
Now that you're a rollbacker, you should be familiar with reverting vandalism now. When you see someone who vandalizes a page multiple times, you can revert back all the edits with the "rollback" button. So instead of undoing all the edits one by one, you could revert back the entire edits with a single button. Keep in mind that it will only revert back the edits of the same editor. If someone interferes or there are multiple editors editing the page, you must undo the edits manually.

One good example was that you could've rollbacked the vandalism in The Sims 3 (Nintendo DS) instead of undoing it.  Nikel  Talk  –  Vote!  14:22, October 27, 2013 (UTC)

Drop-down license menu
The drop-down license menu seems like trouble to some of us, as we never intended to license the file twice but it did anyway. I'm just saying that it would be safe to edit the file page manually rather than using the drop-down menu, though this is just my advice. --<font face="Verdana" color="RoyalBlue">Frostwalker <font face="Comic Sans MS" color="DarkOrange">Talk to me! 17:28, November 3, 2013 (UTC)

Use of Warning feature
Hello. I am contacting you to make you aware of a recent decision that was made by the administrators, to allow rollbackers to use the Warning template. Please read this blog for more information on this decision and how it affects you. If you have any questions regarding this, please contact me or another administrator. Thanks! --  LostInRiverview talk ~ blog 01:22, November 5, 2013 (UTC)

Peak
The image was found in a thread at modthesims forum. Mortimer's actual hair was probably changed into the receding hairline style his father Gunther Goth and Caliban Capp are using (because the teen mesh is named "tmhairpeak" and Gunther and Caliban's hair are named "amhairpeak").

The mesh for the teen version still exists, but it is assigned to the umhairpeak texture (the textures the current amhairpeak mesh is using). -- Randomlurker87 (talk) 17:55, November 16, 2013 (UTC)
