RE: Hunch about Decepticonprime aka Rebecca Black

Hey Wir. Yeah, I think something's up too. I'm going to leave Decepticon a message about this and see what his/her true intentions are. Thanks for bringing this up! Lost Labyrinth (c)(b) 02:00, August 31, 2011 (UTC)

I think the main problem here is that Decepticon/RB means well with these nominations but he/she doesn't look into enough detail when nominating someone, which kind of embarasses not only Decepticon but the nominee too. Hopefully they'll get the message here. Lost Labyrinth (c)(b) 02:11, August 31, 2011 (UTC)
I do remember that this user caused quite a bit of trouble on their RebeccaBlack account and judging by this, I doubt this user was here to help at all. Lost Labyrinth (c)(b) 02:25, August 31, 2011 (UTC)
All the accounts are now permanently blocked. Glad all that is over. Lost Labyrinth (c)(b) 02:34, August 31, 2011 (UTC)
Heh, always good to have an eye that can easily spot the bad guys! :) Lost Labyrinth (c)(b) 02:39, August 31, 2011 (UTC)
The good news is that Maowang and their socks are already permanently blocked, so if they are the same then they're already taken care of. Lost Labyrinth (c)(b) 02:42, August 31, 2011 (UTC)
With that in mind, I've blocked their IP range for a month, so hopefully they'll just give up. Lost Labyrinth (c)(b) 02:53, August 31, 2011 (UTC)

Re:Icon

Thanks for letting me know! I wouldn't bother, to be honest, as the template isn't on all pages at the moment and you'd need a transparent image instead of the one you found. ђ talk 07:08, September 5, 2011 (UTC)

If you find a duplicate image, just tag it with {{delete|<duplicate file>}}, and an admin will delete it eventually when they see it. Alternatively, you can leave me or another admin a message and we'll delete it straight away. ђ talk 08:10, September 5, 2011 (UTC)

Admin Projects

Hey, I noticed you put in an application for adminship. I just thought I'd let you know you might want to put in what two admin projects you want to work on in your request as it is compulsory for admins. At present, there is five available, and you can only pick two. Btw, the Featured Media doesn't count as one, bu rather an extra responsibility, which I might help out with if you get in. Good luck! ђ talk 05:19, September 6, 2011 (UTC)

RE: Facebook connected

Hey Wir, unfortunately I don't have a clue of how the Facebook Connect feature works with Wikia. The only other thing I'd suggest is to try and login to Wikia using your Facebook password. Sorry I couldn't be of more help! Lost Labyrinth (c)(b) 06:48, September 6, 2011 (UTC)

re:Blog

Yeah, I saw it. I'm considering deleting it, since it's sort of borderline on spam, but I might ask another admin when I see them for their opinion. Thanks for the heads up though! ђ talk 08:39, September 7, 2011 (UTC)

I recall seeing it before but I haven't deleted it, I think. I may have deleted a broken redirect to it though. ђ talk 08:56, September 7, 2011 (UTC)

Your request for administrator rights

Hey Wir, just thought I should tell you that I have approved your request for administrator rights. Good luck and congratulations! :) Lost Labyrinth (c)(b) 09:06, September 7, 2011 (UTC)

Congrats, and welcome to the admin team! ђ talk 09:07, September 7, 2011 (UTC)
Huh? really? oh, i just saw it near my username... lol thank you! i will need backup from all of you here to work :) --Wir.wiryawan 09:11, September 7, 2011 (UTC)
Of course we'll try and help you where we can. I'm certain you'll do fine! :) Lost Labyrinth (c)(b) 09:15, September 7, 2011 (UTC)

Hi, Wir! I've been inactive for several weeks, and I just found out this. Congratulations! Nikel Talk 13:24, September 9, 2011 (UTC)

IRC

Hey Wir, just thought I should let you know that as you're now an admin, you can obtain operator flags on the IRC channel. To do this, you'll need to register with NickServ. Just type "/ns register <password> <email-address>" without the speech marks and substituting the password and email fields with your actual details. Then you'll need to check your email for instructions. Once you've done that, you'll be registered and I can give you your flags. Just remember to type "/ns identify <password>" every time you go to IRC after that and let me know once you've registered. Thanks! Lost Labyrinth (c)(b) 21:19, September 8, 2011 (UTC)

Okay, you now have operator flags! :) Now for just a few things you'll need to know:
  • "/cs op #wikia-sims" (without the speech marks) will allow you to op yourself (with "/cs deop #wikia-sims" doing the opposite).
  • "/kick user reason" will allow you to kick someone out of the channel.
  • "/mode #wikia-sims +b user" will allow you to ban someone (with -b unbanning them).
  • "/mode #wikia-sims +q user" will allow you to quiet a user, preventing them from talking (with -q reversing the operation).

Those are just the basic things for now. Let me know if you need any help! Regards, Lost Labyrinth (c)(b) 16:28, September 9, 2011 (UTC)

RE:SLAP!

I feel sorry for the trout. I believe it would make a great salad however... :P|_Andronikos Leventis Talk 12:09, September 9, 2011 (UTC)

RE: False Info

Sure. Someone really needs to keep an eye on him! Just imagine! His edits have remained untouched and unaware for approx. 2 weeks! Nikel Talk 14:19, September 10, 2011 (UTC)

Thanks for the block, though I had just left a peaceful approach. Oh, well, it's his loss anyway. Thanks again! ...and in case you haven't noticed before, congrats for your adminship! Nikel Talk 14:29, September 10, 2011 (UTC)
No need to, because I've checked his contributions for at least the first page. I didn't check the rest since it was quite long ago. Nikel Talk 14:40, September 10, 2011 (UTC)

RE: Thanks

No problemo! :D
Hmm... some users start making anti-profanity vandalism, which is quite fatal as most admins don't aware of it. :-/ Nikel Talk 08:38, September 11, 2011 (UTC)

Yeah, Gui has encouraged me to do that too. I'll do that... one of these days. :p Nikel Talk 08:49, September 11, 2011 (UTC)
Good for him! >:D I don't think his intention in this wiki is good, but I kinda feel it's a bit harsh decision... Nikel Talk 07:34, September 12, 2011 (UTC)

RE:Vampire page

Thank you, but I prefer O Positive! (Talk) This Plasma Pack tastes fool!09:03, September 12, 2011 (UTC)
Well, this hack is indeed not about manipulating vampirism (that would be impossible since in The Sims 1 series vampires don't take part in-game). However, it is information about a mod that adds vampirism in-game, so it can be considered as additional information about players who want to use that specific mod. And after all, finding mods from The Sims 1 era is rare. So, imo, the link to the mod should be kept.


Sim lover90

Hey Wir, I think your decision to warn that user by giving him/her that warning sign is too soon. I left him message instead. I'm sure we all will consider the information was fake. However, he did no harm at all, so there is no reason to give him that warning. Nikel Talk 10:02, September 20, 2011 (UTC)

RE: Disabled

Yeah, Wikia are performing maintenance on their servers, probably to fix the blank pages issue or something. At least they told us this time. And seeing as they're meant to be offline at the moment, I'm shocked that this posted. :P Lost Labyrinth (c)(b) 13:18, September 22, 2011 (UTC)

RE: Template

All done. TSM iPhone now shows up. As for the ones who love me enough to vandalise or spam my userspace, we have a nice little button that we hope they'll enjoy! ;) Lost Labyrinth (c)(b) 16:13, September 22, 2011 (UTC)

RE:Images

Oh, those images were meant to be added in my fanon, which is currently... abandoned. I thought I asked Gui to delete it? :-/. Anyway, you may delete it, as I don't need it. Right now, I can't do the cleanup because I am busy this week. You know, midtests and sort of things... Thank you in advance Wir! Nikel Talk 09:26, September 23, 2011 (UTC)

How to Block

Wir, do you know how to block someone and have you done it? I'm just asking, not because I want to block someone... Nikel Talk 08:14, September 28, 2011 (UTC)

go to the user page and select "contributions" tab. you can see additional menu below the tab for example:
For USERNAME (talk | block | block log | logs | deleted user contributions | user rights management)
to block klik block. at the new page you will see the username that you want to block, expiry time, and check or uncheck what you allow or disallow when that user is blocked. if you finish, click "block this user" button.
dont forget to add the reason why that user blocked and put a blocked template on their talkpage. about blocking policies, you can read it on admin portal :) --Wir.wiryawan 08:38, September 28, 2011 (UTC)
Oh, yeah! How could I not notice that? Thanks Wir! Oh, do me a favor okay? Tell me whenever there's a music video from TS3 EP! e.g. Lady Antabellum's Need You Know. ;D Nikel Talk 08:51, September 28, 2011 (UTC)
i already add all music video created for the sims 2 and the sims 3 like Pixie Lott - Mama Do and Nelly Furtado - Manos Al Aire. you should check the sims 3 and its expansion pack page to watch it :) --Wir.wiryawan 09:00, September 28, 2011 (UTC)

RE: Featured Arcticle, fanon...

Hey Wir, I think all those positions are filled by other admins. I know that WH has control of Featured Article and Featured Fanon while RoseGui does Featured Editor. You can however work around the Featured Article area and when someone nominates something new, you can decide whether it is good enough to go to a vote. Thanks! Lost Labyrinth (c)(b) 06:38, September 29, 2011 (UTC)

RE: Fanon cleanup

Hey Wir, yeah I've noticed too from that example (which I've deleted as it was abandoned). I guess all we can do is try to clean it up as far as we can, although to be honest most fanon made on the layout builder was below average quality.

As for having it as a cleanup of the month, I think it's a pretty good suggestion. Seeing as WH has taken control of the cleanup, I'll pass on your suggestion to him. Thanks! Lost Labyrinth (c)(b) 13:57, September 29, 2011 (UTC)

RE: deleted image

Oh, I don't really know. O= Maybe Trimalynn is planning to upload those images. --RoseGui (talk here) 11:48, October 2, 2011 (UTC)

Yes, maybe that's the best option. ^_^ --RoseGui (talk here) 11:54, October 2, 2011 (UTC)

Mata/Tama

I'm thinking we're both a bit confused. According to es.simswikia, there is a leopard known as Tama, and he's on Felicity Island, not Wanmami Island, like you're saying. Whilst, we have a jaguar named Mata. According to this, the name is Mata, and it is a jaguar. Now, Tama is the surname for Urari Tama and Amanki Tama. I don't know if there is more than one jaguar, but there's no source to prove that there is another one. If you do think there's another jaguar, create a seperate 'Tama' article and I won't delete it. Ѧüя◎ґ 11:49, October 3, 2011 (UTC)

RE: Pet Life States

So that's why it has been redlink all along! It has been like that since the first time it was made by Vss, I think. And I've said it already. Don't worry about renaming the template, I can do that now. Good luck at the dentist! XP. *SLAPS WIR'S TEETH WITH TUNA Nikel Talk 12:34, October 3, 2011 (UTC)

124.176.239.249

Wir? I'm not saying I'm arguing with your decision, but I think your 3-day block to that anon is a bit... "berlebihan" (I don't know the English of that :p). Yes, his edit is evident, but I think it's wiser to only give him a warn. After all, he didn't do anything major, and he only contributes once, making your block rather useless if he never comes back. I'm just saying... just take a hold of yourself when there's light vandalism okay? Nikel Talk 13:41, October 3, 2011 (UTC)

Hey Wir! How are you? Just wanted you to know that a user spammed (again) here. Just wanted you to know because I see you already warned him once. ;) Vss2eiptalk here 14:07, October 3, 2011 (UTC)
