Purge?

Hello, recently as i was going through my "Holly May" page, i mistakenly pressed "Purge". I have absouletly no idea what i have done and i hope it is not dangerous. I have put alot of work into to that fanon and do not want it to be deleted!!! Thankyou GingerxNinjax (talk) 13:30, March 28, 2019 (UTC)GingerxNinjax

The purge button does not cause any damage when pressed and is perfectly harmless. It clears the server-side cache of the page and tells the software to update the page. Purging is sometimes used to fix issues with the page not updating correctly. You can learn more about it here. —k6ka 🍁 (Talk · Contributions) 13:44, March 28, 2019 (UTC)

Potential Edit War on the Child lifestage page

Two users, (Drako and 74.198.131.130) seem to be engaging in an edit war, which previously happened on the fun (needs) page.

Please try to encourage the two warring parties to talk to each other before reporting them here. —k6ka 🍁 (Talk · Contributions) 13:44, March 28, 2019 (UTC)

You can change your password by going to Special:ChangePassword. Note that The Sims Wiki administrators do not have access to your password and cannot help you with password-related issues.
As for the two pages, I have deleted them at your request. In the future, please provide a link to them so it is easier for us to delete them. —k6ka 🍁 (Talk · Contributions) 02:49, April 5, 2019 (UTC)

Ikea Home Stuff HELP???

Discussion closed
Out of scope. The administrators' noticeboard is for on-wiki issues that require the attention of administrators. For game help, please use the help desk instead. —k6ka 🍁 (Talk · Contributions) 10:22, April 9, 2019 (UTC)

Hi, this noticeboard is for issues relating to the wiki that require the attention of administrators. Please ask in the help desk forum, or in our Discord server, for issues relating to the game. —k6ka 🍁 (Talk · Contributions) 10:22, April 9, 2019 (UTC)

Issue is resolved
The user has been blocked. ― C.Syde (talk | contribs) 07:22, April 25, 2019 (UTC)

Hi, can you blocked "Pizza Pizza Pizza Pizza Pizza Pizza Pizza Pizza" ? --Nikon1803•(My talk)•(My contributions) 06:18, April 25, 2019 (UTC)

While the user in question has been globally blocked, I have blocked them locally as an extra precaution. I'm pretty sure the global block is indefinite, as they were already evading local and global blocks for the same behaviour. ― C.Syde (talk | contribs) 07:22, April 25, 2019 (UTC)

Accidental Overwrite

Issue is resolved
Problem solved. ― C.Syde (talk | contribs) 00:44, April 27, 2019 (UTC)

Hello, recently i uploaded a new picture for my Waterside neighbourhood, but i accidently clicked overwrite on the photo from the original Waterside, so now my photo appears in the unreleased neighbourhoods for Waterside. Im freaking out completely and i don't know how to undo this. GingerxNinjax (talk) 00:26, April 27, 2019 (UTC)GingerxNinjax

I have fixed the image for you. If you ever run into the same problem, just go to the file history of the image, and hit the revert link next to the revision you wish to revert to. ― C.Syde (talk | contribs) 00:44, April 27, 2019 (UTC)

Help with age groups?

Hi! I am having a bit of trouble adding different age groups to my fanon(s). I want to add two age groups at once, but when i go to publish it, they don't show up.

this photo is how i want age groups to look like on my fanon(s).

I'm using sims2 fanon(s). Thankyou! GingerxNinjax (talk) 10:03, May 26, 2019 (UTC)GingerxNinjax

This kind of a request would be better for the community discussions forum. The Admin's Noticeboard is meant primarily for requesting administrator assistance, whereas changes to most wiki templates are not determined solely by administrators. - LostInRiverview talk · blog · contribs 20:36, May 26, 2019 (UTC)

Deletion of TS4: Island Living

A few minutes ago, I deleted The Sims 4: Island Living because its creation, in my view, violated the Unreleased Games Policy, specifically parts 1 and 3 of the 'Rumor Confirmation' rule. I do believe that the page did violate the letter of the policy. However, upon reflection, I am not sure that deletion was the proper course of action, so I have undeleted the page. I noted in the undeletion log that this is a "unique case." I say that because the so-called confirmation of the rumor was a leak from an EA website. It was not based only on speculation of leaks from non-EA sources, as has happened with games in the past. I think that the UGP as is currently written doesn't adequately address this particular scenario, so as it stands there would be no grounds for me to simply delete the page. I assume within a day of now this will be a moot point (as EA will probably officially announce the expansion at tomorrow's livestream), so it's not worth pursuing a formal deletion discussion. I fully expect that within the next few days, I'll be proposing an amendment to the UGP to cover this type of a leak. In any case, I'm just posting an explanation here for the sake of anyone looking at the Deletion Logs who might be confused by what I did. -- LostInRiverview talk · blog · contribs 01:19, June 8, 2019 (UTC)
