User talk:ThePeculiarMe

Chat
Hey there, ThePeculiarMe -- you've been on the wiki for a while now and you seem to be a really interesting user. If you're ever around, and feel like talking to your fellow Sim Wikians, then feel free to pop on Chat. Sometimes though, you're better going on Chat when it's more active, instead of sitting in there on your lonesome. Alternatively, if you dislike using Chat (which I'd understand), then you can join more of the community on the wiki's IRC channel, it's pretty cool and we do have a bit of a laugh at times -- hope to speak to you soon!

RE: The person below you
Hey ThePeculiarMe, I just read your recent post on TPBY game. If you usually judge people based on their impressions and their personality, not their gender, then shouldn't your answer be yes?  C.Syde  ( talk &#124;  contribs ) 05:14, May 9, 2014 (UTC)

RE: Stub Articles/Fanon(?)
The Morgan Sims appear to be relevant as the Morgan family page links to them. The Diva Loyal is a mystery though. --k6ka (talk &#124; contribs) 10:53, May 14, 2014 (UTC)


 * EDIT: Nope: - Mesa Flats links to Diva Loyal. The only issue is that the articles are poorly written and need cleanup, but they should not be deleted. --k6ka (talk &#124; contribs) 10:54, May 14, 2014 (UTC)

RE: Images by a User
Thanks for the report. Although 2 days is too soon to deem the images as "unused", uploaded images tend to be used right away or else the uploader will eventually forget their images. I will warn the user about this.  Nikel  Talk  –  Vote!  15:07, May 16, 2014 (UTC)

RE:Deleting an Image
Done!  Nikel  Talk  –  Vote!  08:02, May 18, 2014 (UTC)

Re:Your Userpage
Sure, if you want to. If you like, use my userpage style as a base for your own. : ) WayfinderOwl (talk) 20:11, May 19, 2014 (UTC)


 * My userpage was based of Nikel's orginally, but I spent quite a bit of time playing around with the lay out, to be something that I liked and looked fun.


 * Thanks. Yeah, I was surprised I became rollbacker so quick. WayfinderOwl (talk) 00:38, May 20, 2014 (UTC)

 * Your nomination for rollback rights has been approved. If you have any questions about the Rollback tool, please see this page, or leave me a message on my talk page. Congratulations! --  LostInRiverview talk ~ blog 05:33, May 23, 2014 (UTC)

RE: Battles
I'm not sure, really. The votes at The Sims Wiki:Battles/Nominations are kinda mixed. I'll surprise you tomorrow (your time) with the new nomination. --k6ka (talk &#124; contribs) 11:53, May 23, 2014 (UTC)

Editing other people's fanons
While this is generally prohibited, minor changes, such as typo fixing, correcting punctuation, or fixing a broken template, are allowed and do not require specific permission from the author. --k6ka (talk &#124; contribs) 10:56, May 26, 2014 (UTC)


 * Minor changes don't require permission. I'm aware of Yazeer, but the profile pic doesn't tell us much. Some people do upload images of children as their profile pic, so I think a sudden block for being underaged is too hasty as this is not solid evidence. I'm not concerned with the images on his talk page right now. As long as they are not disrupting the flow of the talk page, I think I'll leave it. If he's replacing messages with his editing tests, then I'll drop a note. --k6ka (talk &#124; contribs) 11:06, May 26, 2014 (UTC)


 * For now, I'll let it be. Another admin might do something about it, though, but that admin probably isn't me. --k6ka (talk &#124; contribs) 11:38, May 26, 2014 (UTC)

Wikithanks
You've worked very hard for the wiki and that has not gone unnoticed by myself and your other peers on this website. Here's a wikithanks for all the work you pour into this wiki! Ѧüя◎ґ (talk) 18:27, June 1, 2014 (UTC)

RE: Help about a new article
I made some changes, mainly copyediting and grammar. Hope that's okay. --k6ka (talk &#124; contribs) 11:52, June 2, 2014 (UTC)

Some awards
You've done pretty good job around this wiki, and I want to give you an award for hard work! And a little thank you as well! :)  Nikel  Talk  –  Vote!  13:05, June 7, 2014 (UTC)
 * Hahah, yeah, but I do believe you deserve it.  Nikel  Talk  –  Vote!  13:17, June 7, 2014 (UTC)

RE: Deleting work
Not necessary. I just purged one of the userpages and the category "Users/Slovakia" appeared. I'm a bit hesitant to delete it when you're just going to recreate it, and the fact that the template is used on multiple pages makes me quite hesitant to delete it. --k6ka (talk &#124; contribs) 10:36, June 12, 2014 (UTC)


 * One more thing: I can't delete Category:Users/COUNTRY because there is no content on the page. --k6ka (talk &#124; contribs) 10:38, June 12, 2014 (UTC)


 * Anyone can rename the category page, but to move all the pages in one category and into another requires a lot of time, patience, and hand-effort, or a bot to do the job. --k6ka (talk &#124; contribs) 10:56, June 12, 2014 (UTC)

RE: Changing the page layout
That seems like a software limitation. We'll have to split the article up into individual games, like this one. The article was split up according to game. So in this case, there could be a Chair (The Sims), Chair (The Sims 2), and Chair (The Sims 3)... and Chair (The Sims 4) when appropriate. --k6ka (talk &#124; contribs) 13:12, June 20, 2014 (UTC)


 * Tabbers won't help, because the thing here is a technical limitation. The MediaWiki software cannot load that many templates on the page. Content in tabbers are still loaded when the page is loaded, so the error will still pop up. The pages actually need to be split. --k6ka (talk &#124; contribs) 21:47, June 20, 2014 (UTC)

Another award!
Gee wiz, alot of your wiki co-editors seem to be very impressed with you. Here's a wiki thanks for all the good work you have made to the wiki!

I'm surprised I haven't received much, despite all the positive feedback other users have given me. LOL! --  C.Syde  ( talk &#124;  contribs ) 22:17, June 20, 2014 (UTC)

Thanks for the award! --  C.Syde  ( talk &#124;  contribs ) 22:33, June 20, 2014 (UTC)

Pizza Deliverers
You should remove them from the delivery people category when adding them to the pizza deliverer category. I have a feeling the delivery people category won't be needed much longer. Or at least be needed for all delivery people, now that these specific categories have been made. --  C.Syde  ( talk &#124;  contribs ) 03:58, June 21, 2014 (UTC)

It's not that they aren't delivery people. It's that I don't think there'll be any point in keeping them in that category, now that categories like newspaper, grocery and pizza deliverers exist. --  C.Syde  ( talk &#124;  contribs ) 04:23, June 21, 2014 (UTC)

RE: Something to delete
Non-LiR speaking. Deleted. --k6ka (talk &#124; contribs) 21:47, June 21, 2014 (UTC)

Redirect instead of delete
Hello. I noticed you tagged a redirect page for deletion. Please note that a redirect may be a better option than deletion. Deleting a page can lead to red-links everywhere and doesn't look good for the wiki. On the other hand, a redirect gets readers to their correct location without damaging the wiki. Thank you. --k6ka (talk &#124; contribs) 14:09, June 28, 2014 (UTC)

Rabbit holes as objects
I saw that lately you added the object categories to the rabbit hole pages. I'd be inclined not to add these categories to them. These buildings are specifically referred to rabbit holes, and yeah everyone knows that, but try not to mix them with "objects" in generic sense. The object categories are for generic objects in the series that don't fall into any specific groups, so if we can, we should try to make rabbit holes distinct from these categories. If someone wants to browse grocery, the first thing that comes in mind is rabbit hole, not objects in The Sims 3. Also, these categories are just cluttering the page I think.

And, while this is technically not false at all, many things in the games are objects, but we consider them to something else that's more specific. Sims, the PlumbBob, and even the distant backgrounds in each world are also objects in technical sense, but we tend not to look at them that way. Which is why I suggest we not include these rabbit holes into object categories.  Nikel  Talk  –  Vote!  09:14, June 30, 2014 (UTC)
