Hello! I go by the alias '''k6ka''' ({{IPAc-en|ˈ|k|eɪ|ˈ|s|ɪ|k|s|ˈ|k|eɪ|ˈ|eɪ|audio=File:How to pronounce k6ka.ogg|audio-url=https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/6/65/How_to_pronounce_k6ka.ogg}}) on much of the Internet; I also go by '''k6''' and '''Czar Hey''' on some other places. The odd username comes from a time when I was less mature and (apparently) quite unimaginative. I am {{age|1998|05|02}} years old, and currently attend [[wikipedia:Ryerson University|Ryerson University]].

==About me==
[[File:Ts2 the three branches of k6ka.png|thumb|400px|The three branches of k6ka. Human on left, Robot in the middle, Ghost on right.<br />'''Human''': This is my physical body, much like any other human on earth. You failed biology class, didn't you?<br />'''Robot''': This is my loyal robot, [[User:K6kaBOT|K6kaBOT]]. It is an autonomous robot that can think for itself. It also does a lot of the physical labor.<br />'''Ghost''': This is the ghostly part of me. It can walk through walls and possess animals! Also good for making people wet themselves.<br />Confused? Don't worry, just remember this: the Human is k6ka, the Robot is k6ka, and the Ghost is k6ka. Got it? Good.]]Well, hello there, fellow Simmers. I am k6ka &nbsp;({{IPAc-en|ˈ|k|eɪ|ˈ|s|ɪ|k|s|ˈ|k|eɪ|ˈ|eɪ|audio=File:How to pronounce k6ka.ogg|audio-url=https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/sims/images/6/65/How_to_pronounce_k6ka.ogg/revision/latest?cb=20180202042439}}), but some people abbreviate my username as "k6". Just don't call me "kaka" - that ticks me off.


Who am I? I am an administrator on The Sims Wiki, and I am also an administrator at [[w:c:tlaststand:The Last Stand Wiki|The Last Stand Wiki]] and on the [[wikipedia:|English Wikipedia]]. And if you think I reference Wikipedia too much when I speak, that's because I edit too much there.
I am an administrator on the [[wikipedia:User:K6ka|English Wikipedia]], [[wikia:w:c:tlaststand:User:K6ka|The Last Stand Wiki]], and '''The Sims Wiki''', of course! I'm also a [[metawikimedia:global renamer|global renamer]] on [[metawikimedia:User:K6ka|Meta Wiki]].


I helped create and kickstart The Sims Wiki's long anticipated migration off Wikia and onto Miraheze. I believe that The Sims Wiki deserves better than what Wikia (doesn't) offer, and I chose Miraheze because it had software similar to Wikipedia, which I was used to and excited to introduce to the wiki.
I am a fairly big [[wikipedia:WP:HOLIC|WikiHolic]] - I think about wikis during the day and dream about them at night. I am quite fluent with [[wikipedia:Wikitext|Wikitext]] - the thing that makes up Wikipedia and Wikia. I can't stand Visual Editor except for certain circumstances, such as editing a table. I just find source editor much easier, and I get more control over the outcome of the page. It also allows me to fix stuff that VisualEditor either can't fix, won't fix, or VisualEditor causes the problem in the first place. No, I didn't take a crash course or study all night to learn about Wikitext. I find that it just comes naturally the more you edit. And I edit a lot. By now I think you want to throw a wiki-egg at me for wiki-ing too much.


To contact me, you can use my [[User talk:K6ka|talk page]], or find me on [[The Sims Wiki:Discord|The Sims Wiki's Discord server]]. If it's supposed to be private, you can [[Special:EmailUser/K6ka|email me]].
==Tasks==
I hesitated on this section since it makes me look like some sort of a bot. Note that I'm not limited to the tasks listed below. I can do more than this table can hold. I'm a human, not a bot. Bleep bloop! Oh whoops..

==Contact==
You can contact me on [[User talk:K6ka|this page]].

'''The majority of cases should be discussed publicly''', though in rare circumstances, I allow users to email me privately. But first, read the following...

{| class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed wikitable" data-expandtext="Show" data-collapsetext="Hide"
! So, when can I email you?
|-
|
You should generally use my [[User talk:K6ka|talk page]] to contact me in the vast majority of cases. Email should only be used for certain circumstances where public communication may not be desirable or possible. Examples of when you ''can'' email me include:
*You are currently [[Help:Blocking|blocked]] from editing and your ability to edit your [[Help:Talk page|talk page]] has been revoked. You can email me to request an unblock, or to inform me that you are an innocent editor that has been autoblocked.
*There is a revision on a page that you want [[wikipedia:WP:Selective deletion|removed from public view]], because it is extremely offensive, defamatory, or reveals personal information. In cases like these, do not post it publicly, as we don't want the [[wikipedia:Streisand effect|Streisand effect]] to add fuel to the fire.
*Other personal matters. However, keep in mind that this isn't a social networking site, so don't treat emails as casual private messages in which you can spam me.

'''If you are receiving death threats from someone else, do NOT email me'''. [[Special:Contact/general|Contact Wikia Staff]], and if needed, your local police.

To send me an email, please use [https://goo.gl/forms/SQ9uyQ5lylDdmUHd2 this form]. Thanks.

"There are two ways to get enough. One is to continue to accumulate more and more. The other is to desire less." —G. K. Chesterton

Hello! I go by the alias k6ka ( Listen  /ˈkeɪˈsɪksˈkeɪˈeɪ/) on much of the Internet; I also go by k6 and Czar Hey on some other places. The odd username comes from a time when I was less mature and (apparently) quite unimaginative. I am 26 years old, and currently attend Ryerson University.

I am an administrator on the English Wikipedia, The Last Stand Wiki, and The Sims Wiki, of course! I'm also a global renamer on Meta Wiki.

I helped create and kickstart The Sims Wiki's long anticipated migration off Wikia and onto Miraheze. I believe that The Sims Wiki deserves better than what Wikia (doesn't) offer, and I chose Miraheze because it had software similar to Wikipedia, which I was used to and excited to introduce to the wiki.

To contact me, you can use my talk page, or find me on The Sims Wiki's Discord server. If it's supposed to be private, you can email me.
