Request for admin rights
Hi, K6ka! I've nominated you for admin rights. Please visit the request page to accept or decline the nomination. :) Oh, and my message sounds similar to the one I left for you for the rollback rights.  Nikel  Talk  –  Vote!  06:21, January 24, 2014 (UTC)

Blank Personality tables
Some users have dismissed blank personality tables as being useless. Are they useless, or was I right to add them in the first place? C.Syde65 (talk) 22:36, January 25, 2014 (UTC)

Congratulations!
As you may already be aware, your RfA passed with flying colours and as of now you're officially an administrator. Congratulations! :) 18:53, January 29, 2014 (UTC)

Changing first names in The Sims 2
I would never have suspected that SimPE should not be used to change first names. Maybe there needs to be a list of things SimPE will let you do, but shouldn't be done. Dharden (talk) 02:54, February 4, 2014 (UTC)

Changes to warning template
I've noticed that you have included additional text when using Warning on IP user talkpages. I've copied that text and added it to the warning itself. The additional text can be triggered by filling the template parameter  with any non-blank text or string. --  LostInRiverview talk ~ blog 01:39, February 5, 2014 (UTC)

RE: A PlumbBob for you!
Gee, thanks for the PlumbBob! :D I'll hang it on my userpage. :)  Nikel  Talk  –  Vote!  04:15, February 5, 2014 (UTC)

Archives
I would archive a lot of my messages, but I'm not sure how to do it. C.Syde65 (talk) 06:16, February 7, 2014 (UTC)

Pages / Rollbacking
Man it would be great to make a page with rubbish on it. I know it sounds - and even I think it sounds - stupid. But it would be useful for testing the rollback tool. I recently became a rollback but I've never actually lived up to it. C.Syde65 (talk) 06:16, February 7, 2014 (UTC)

RE: Rolling back your own edits
Oh, that makes more sense. Thanks. Joey.eyeball (talk) 04:34, February 9, 2014 (UTC)

RE: Admins deleting user and user talk pages

Archives
I've been trying to follow the instructions but I'm still unsure of how to archive my messages. I've decided that I want them all archived. C.Syde65 (talk) 06:07, February 10, 2014 (UTC)

Witch Doctor
I don't think I'll be able to upload the Witch Doctor's headshot myself because I don't have the required expansion pack. C.Syde65 (talk) 02:54, February 18, 2014 (UTC)

RE: Archiving your talk page
I actually plan to archive my talk page once it reaches 50 discussions if that isn't a problem. And when it reaches 50 discussions, I wouldn't mind if you archived it for me. Joey.eyeball (talk) 05:18, February 18, 2014 (UTC)

Preceding unsigned comment
On the battles page in the comments section there is an unsigned comment. I'm not really considering fixing it myself but still I'd want to know how to fix unsigned comments myself in future. C.Syde65 (talk) 05:45, February 18, 2014 (UTC)

Edit on the Sims FreePlay
Hey, I thought you might want to know what this user "162.198.166.68" contributed on the page The Sims FreePlay.

Sims is also the stupidists game on earth and if you are reading this this is a HUGE waste of your time.

I've already rollbacked this bad faith edit, but I just wanted to let you know anyway. C.Syde65 (talk) 01:19, February 22, 2014 (UTC)

That's alright. Although I have warned a few editors about their contributions in the past, I wasn't entirely sure whether a simple warning would stop this editor. C.Syde65 (talk) 01:50, February 22, 2014 (UTC)

Okay thanks. C.Syde65 (talk) 02:17, February 22, 2014 (UTC)

Featured article and poll
I'm usually the one that changes over the Featured Article and Main Page Poll at the beginning of each month. I've been incredibly busy lately so I haven't had the opportunity to do this, and I don't think I'll get a good chance to do it in the near term. Can you please take over for me in updating these features, or find another user who is able to do so?

Here's the procedure I follow for updating these features:
 * Featured Article
 * Count up the votes on The Sims Wiki:Featured article
 * Visit the winning page and use the text there to create a 1-3 paragraph write-up describing the article topic in general. For a guide into what this looks like, see The Sims Wiki:Featured article/Past Articles
 * Update Featured Article, add the new write-up to the list of past articles (under March 2014) and remove the winning vote from the voting section.
 * Add Feat art to the bottom of the winning page. If the page has a Pagecover, also include a blurb in the 'subtitle' parameter of that template, stating that it is The Sims Wiki's Featured Article for March 2014.


 * Monthly Poll
 * Create a page for the previous month's poll. This page would be at The Sims Wiki:Polls/2014 February. Go to MainPagePoll and copy over the poll to the new page (be sure to include the tags). You can see how this is done by checking out the polls listed on The Sims Wiki:Polls.
 * Total up the number of responses on the old poll, calculate a percentage of response to each option, and list out the responses and percentages underneath the poll on the new page. This page will be an archive.
 * Come up with a new poll question (ask around if you can't think of one - this is sometimes difficult to come up with) and a few poll answers. Under the poll, include a link to the archive page for the February poll, along with a blurb about which response received the most votes.

My apologies if this seems a bit daunting, but you are reliable and active so I trust that you can handle this situation. As I said, if you want you can contact someone else to take this over. This would only be for the month of March, I plan on being less busy in real life by then.

Thanks for any help you can provide. --  LostInRiverview talk ~ blog 02:19, March 5, 2014 (UTC)
