Bold?[edit source]

Hi wh, can you help me? why when I browse this wiki all fort become bold? Im using firefox. Wiryawan310 05:42, March 12, 2012 (UTC)

Strange... I'm not sure what could be causing it, but it could be some .css RR has been working with lately. What version of Firefox do you use, btw? ђ talk 06:37, March 12, 2012 (UTC)
Im using firefox 10.0.2. Wiryawan310 13:00, March 12, 2012 (UTC)
I can't see any css which mentions bolding. Can you go view a page on another wiki, and see if its bold there? If it is, then we know its a local issue, and I'll check more here. I use Firefox 11.0 beta and can't see anything wrong myself. If I still can't fix it, it might be a good idea to send a Special:Contact in about it. ђ talk 03:49, March 13, 2012 (UTC)
There is an issue with mozilla, Im using chrome now and all fine... lol thanks for helping :D Wiryawan310 12:46, March 14, 2012 (UTC)

Don't understand[edit source]

My, oh, nickname, what my friends call me, that is Defender of Peace. I put up a page about my charecter, Connor hall, 5seconds later, it's gone. I mustly talk about things in person, and I read the guidlines, they didn't make scense. I really could use help. Please explain everything to me. I'm usally the smartest guy out of me and my friends.

Sorry for taking a little while to notice this message, I was busy elsewhere. I wasn't the one who deleted the page, but only users who have registered an account with wikia are allowed to create fanon on this wiki. If you create an account and leave me or another admin a message I'll undelete it for you. If you have any other questions leave me another message and I'll try and help you. ђ talk 02:14, March 16, 2012 (UTC)

Fanon ideas...[edit source]

Can you please tell me what I need to add to my fanon Fanon:Starving Ur Heart to make someone take away the fanon cleanup. !SCHNETZKA! (talk) 01:39, March 18, 2012 (UTC)

When I tag fanon I do it in regards to its layout and amount of content. I don't really read or write fanon that much so I can't really help you. If I were you, I'd do things such as not using bold and italics as much, esp. on the song list, as well as cutting back on first person language, e.g. Remember any commets about the album comment this or contact me., which I would add in a separate sub-section. Personally I'd just incorporate the whole article into Fanon:Rebecca Carter, as that article cold use a little more content. I'll check back on it in a couple of days when I cleanout the category again. If you need any more help just leave another message. ђ talk 07:28, March 18, 2012 (UTC)

RE: Inactive Administratorship[edit source]

I'll come back to get my adminship one day, but right now I have to much on my hands and I barely have internet access. :)--DarthCookie♣Talk♣ 15:19, March 24, 2012 (UTC)


Hey there...[edit source]

Why did you revert my edit to the Vidcund Curious page? I even put in a reference, and thought it would be helpful to others who are using Inteenimator. Once Inteen was taken out the problem was gone, so I wanted others to know about it instead of wondering why Vidcund was suddenly talking like a teen ^^;

I reverted it as it's sort of speculation, and doesn't really need to be stated imo. Everyone knows that mods may have effects on the game such as that. ђ talk 03:12, March 25, 2012 (UTC)

SimCity[edit source]

Woah, I thought Maxis was dead. They're planning to create another SimCity, releasing in 2013! Check out their trailer! Nikel Talk 03:08, March 25, 2012 (UTC)

Yep, I've heard. I'm probably going to buy it when it comes out. I've seen a couple of videos showing the game engine and such and it looks pretty sweet. Now if only Maxis had worked on TS3. :p ђ talk 03:10, March 25, 2012 (UTC)
I wish so too. I wonder what it'd be like if they had... Nikel Talk 03:39, March 25, 2012 (UTC)

RE: The Not So Routine Machine[edit source]

Why did you decide that it does not warrant it's own page? A device that automatically meets needs of sims and teleports them anywhere is quite unique! The Teleporter has it's own page and this is a highly advanced version of that which does not require lifetime happiness points to obtain and use! Please either undelete the page or provide an explanation as to why you deleted it. Thanks! Barts1a 00:50, March 31, 2012 (UTC)

Because imo it is just a page for a specific store item. I would probably merge the information into teleporter myself. That said, I dont have the item (I don't download any store content myself) and probably aren't really one to decide now I think of it. I'll undelete it and start a discussion at Category talk:Candidates for deletion. Thanks for pointing this out to me! ђ talk 01:20, March 31, 2012 (UTC)

Task request[edit source]

Hi, Wogan. (: Can you please run WoganBot and make it license the images uploaded by Sims3lover because, whenever I try to edit them, I get the spam filter. Thank you. --RoseGui (talk here) 12:01, April 2, 2012 (UTC)

I'm on it. The reason it wouldn't let you license them is probably due to the spam filter, which prevents editing of files which have screenshot/snapshot, etc in the filename. Ironically it doesn't stop them from being uploaded which is the whole point of it iirc. To get around this, just rename the file to something that wouldn't set off the spam filter, and then categorise it (I ad to do this a lot when I categorised ~400 images last week :/) I swear the spam filter is evil. Sadly I have no control over it as it is managed by staff and the VSTF. Oh well. ђ talk 04:23, April 3, 2012 (UTC)
God. =/ Well, thank you! I'll be sure to do that next time! --RoseGui (talk here) 22:25, April 3, 2012 (UTC)

Tabber[edit source]

Hi Wogan. Is it possible for you to design a tabber, the one we usually use for galleries, to change its border, background color, etc. instead of using the default design? Nikel Talk 13:35, April 3, 2012 (UTC)

Code for it might be a little bit messy but I should be able to do it in theory. I'll see what I can do. ђ talk 04:58, April 4, 2012 (UTC)
Actually... I'm not able to do it today, simply because I've got homework due for school tomorrow. But thankfully, tomorrow is the last day of term, and I'll be off for two weeks, so I'll probably get around to it tomorrow or, at the latest, the day after. Sorry about that. ђ talk 08:39, April 4, 2012 (UTC)
Thanks! That's okay you don't have to do it now. Even if you make it, I'm still not going to use it right now due to my limited access on internet. I planned to use it when I fully return. In case you can't, it's fine. It's not mandatory and I only stumbled across an idea. Nikel Talk 15:33, April 5, 2012 (UTC)

Done! The code to be put in your css file is:

div.tabberlive ul.tabbernav li a {
  -moz-border-radius:1em 1em 0 0;
  -khtml-border-radius:1em 1em 0 0;
  -webkit-border-radius:1em 1em 0 0;
   border-radius:1em 1em 0 0;
   background-color:#BFD7FF;
}

It will round out the tabber's tab corners. If you want them rounder, change the 1em's to a higher value, and vice-versa. Also, the hex color in it is the default one used for tabbers on this wiki, but you can change it to whatever you want. As well as that, if you replace the line referring to color with:

   background: url("http://foo.com/whatever");
}

using an image url to set a custom image as the backer for the tabs. I'll try and do some other things as well but for some reason the tabber is being an absolute pain to code for no reason, and you might need to purge the cache 4-5 times for the changes to show. ђ talk 10:00, April 7, 2012 (UTC)

Wiki Ineptitude[edit source]

Thank you so much for deleting that page all of 2 minutes ago. I was trying to find a way to delete it because I realized after I wrote it that it wasn't a wiki question. It was a Sims question and I am so lost and all I want to know is if my glitch or whatever is a common issue and if it can be fixed. Anyway. I think I found the right forum for it now? I don't know. I need so much help it's ridiculous. I guess this is just to let you know that I wasn't blanking things just to be annoying I'm legitimately lost.

It's no problem, I'm glad I helped :) Forum:Central Park would be the forum you would use for such requests. Feel free to leave me a message if you have any other issues or need help. ђ talk 10:22, April 4, 2012 (UTC)

Thank you[edit source]

Thank goodness you deleted the pleasantview murders by Watch Yo Face! Everbody was so skeptical about plagiarism! Now it's all over....66.215.60.197 (talk) 03:55, April 7, 2012 (UTC)anonymously

Why am i Blocked[edit source]

I am 12, but does that mean i have to be blocked, how come Emmarider's 11 and she wasn't blocked. I become unblocked in July. I'm 12 by the way. Thank you, but that was a extremly unfair block, i'm not impressed. ~Seddie 12

No, it wasn't unfair, I'm upholding the law. If I knew about it and didn't take action, we could get in trouble. And as for stating another user is 11, I can't take your word for it unless you have some concrete evidence of them admitting it. ђ talk 11:11, April 7, 2012 (UTC)

Wiki Skills[edit source]

Sorry if this is a bit invasive but, simply out of curiousity, where or how did you accumulate such a vast knowledge of wikicode and other syntax-based coding? Regards, Mr. Hamming 13:37, April 12, 2012 (UTC)

I've kinda taught myself over the year I've been on Wikia. But compared to other users on other wikis and IRC channels I lurk on, my knowledge is by no means complete. ђ talk 22:49, April 12, 2012 (UTC)

I miss fighting with you over Togepis on the IRC. :c If studies didn't steal my time away, I could go on the IRC more. Blehhhh. --RoseGui (talk here) 23:00, April 20, 2012 (UTC)

RE: Hey[edit source]

Really? Thanks then, Wogan! Can it also add a parameter? Because the template has a parameter that's used to add category of which trait it belongs to (Lifestyle, social, etc.) Oh, and thanks too for the tabber design! It looks better than the boring squared tabber. But I only test it because my view will be different than other people's Nikel Talk 04:11, April 25, 2012 (UTC)

Thanks! Until now, I still have no idea what bots do, but they sure come in handy. :p Nikel Talk 09:22, April 25, 2012 (UTC)
Wogan, tell me that #ifeq parser function isn't case sensitive... Nikel Talk 16:16, April 25, 2012 (UTC)
Then it's a little disaster. I unnecessarily used #ifeq function to determine whether one adds the correct input for the parameter, e.g. Social for Category:Social traits. However, your bot didn't use uppercase, so none of the traits will be tagged that category. :/ I can remove the function in the template, but as I know, the traits need to be re-edited to generate the category again. Nikel Talk 10:51, April 27, 2012 (UTC)

GetGameCat[edit source]

I wanted to ask RR for this, but I'm afraid he might never reply my message. Something is going odd with the Template:GetGameCat template. When the game parameter is added, Sims should be categorized (EP) Sims, e.g. Category:Sims from Ambitions and Category:Sims from Late Night. If the input is either Pets or Showtime, the category will be Category:Sims from The Sims 3: Pets and Category:Sims from The Sims 3: Showtime instead of what it's supposed to be! I've updated the template and some sample Sims, but it kept using the incorrect categories! Can you do something? Nikel Talk 02:27, May 4, 2012 (UTC)

I think I've figured it out. There's a default option in that template which I simply didn't notice before. Sorry. Nikel Talk 03:03, May 4, 2012 (UTC)

About Spongeblock66[edit source]

That's not me "Daniel" I said I would stop vandalizing you admins when I'm perma-blocked. Your looking at a different person.

I'm somewhat suspicious of how you came out of nowhere with this message, seeing as noone here even hinted of a possible relationship... Lost Labyrinth (c)(b) 20:40, May 5, 2012 (UTC)
Nevermind, I probably should have checked the IP addresses and locations beforehand. -_- Lost Labyrinth (c)(b) 20:45, May 5, 2012 (UTC)
