Thank's for your lovely words of my family I made! I wish I could show you pictures of them.. I currently am sick with a sore throat and a stuffy nose but i'm still alive!! <3 The names were chosen with my own smart mind.. The glitch (( If your wondering <3 )) that happended is when you know in The Sims 3 Seasons? And you make a igloo? My sims (( Hannah and Rene )) Got stuck.. Oof i'm going to try and play them again.. Wish me luck and have a great day! ~~==Re:Re:Message from ThatLoudSheep==~~ [[User:ThatLoudSheep\|ThatLoudSheep]] ([[User talk:ThatLoudSheep\|talk]]) 19:00, April 3, 2018 (UTC)ThatLoudSheep <3▼ ~~==RE: Question==~~ ~~#The images you added were slightly low quality. For example the elder images legs are slightly cut off, and LostInRiverview did say to update the template after getting higher quality images.~~ ~~#The Sims 4 versions of the toddler and baby icons were missing, making the icons inconsistent in pages.~~ # There has already been a discussion regarding this same idea [[The_Sims_Wiki_talk:Development_Portal/Archive_4#Adding_TS4_age_logos_to_TS4_Sim_infoboxes\|here]] and it was suggested to not use these life stage icons, due to them becoming very hard to see on a white background. #After you did these edits to the template, you seemed to create a sandbox to possibly test how it looks like. (Correct me if I'm wrong) This makes it look like a test edit and from my experience here on The Sims Wiki, test edits should be done in a separate test template, rather than the main one, as it could cause problems and probably confusion. #You seemed to leave the template as it is after you tested it, despite not adding the toddler and baby icons. You probably were going to add them some time later, but that should've been done in the same bunch of edits, not over two hours later. When, for example, updating a template that appears on hundreds of pages, the update should be done in a separate test template. You check out the current icons and improve how they look, add the missing ones when you feel like it, and when the test template is 100% good in your opinion, then move the source code to the main template. That way you can have hours and week lasting breaks from updating the template, without affecting the main pages. The rollback was accidental, but I was still going to undo it manually and explain this shortly in the edit summary, but here it is and I hope you understand.

There is no need to add further warnings to the user's talk page if they have not vandalized since being warned. Adding further warnings usually results in the issue being needlessly rekindled, or makes the user feel intimidated as if they're being ganged up against. In addition, you may wish to read [[The Sims Wiki:Warning]] as to why we issue warnings, and you may want to consider using one of several prewritten [[The Sims Wiki:Warning/List of warnings\|warning templates]] available for use. If you choose to continue writing out warnings manually, you may also want to read some of the prewritten warning templates and seeing how they're written; specifically, when issuing a "Level One" warning, it is important that the message does not accuse the user of bad conduct, but instead attempts to explain the issue in an informative tone. The tone, choice of words, and the length of your messages determines how users will feel about the messages they receive.

You may be wondering what the tool is all about, so here is a brief introduction:~~ ==RE:File Rename== '''Rollback''' is a feature of the [[wikipedia:MediaWiki\|MediaWiki]] software that runs many websites, namely Wikipedia and Wikia. It allows all consecutive edits made by one user to be undone in one click. ▲Done. - [[User:~~ThatLoudSheep~~SimDestroyer\|~~ThatLoudSheep~~SimDestroyer]] ([[User talk:~~ThatLoudSheep~~SimDestroyer\|talk]]) 1912:0006, ~~April~~June 35, 2018 (UTC)~~ThatLoudSheep <3~~ ==Use of rollback on [[World]]== '''What rollback does'''. Rollback only works on the latest edit (current revision) in an article. If you click on rollback, it acts immediately. Instructing the server to perform rollback will revert '''all consecutive''' edits made by '''one user''' to the last revision '''not''' made by that user. For instance, if User A made 6 edits in a row to [[The Sims 2]], and no one else edited after them, using rollback will revert all 6 of those edits to the last edit not made by User A. Hi Isaiah. I noticed your edit [//sims.wikia.com/wiki/World?curid=36460&diff=816708&oldid=816706&rcid=853451 here] reverted two edits using rollback, but the edits reverted did not appear to fit in with the criteria for edits that can be reverted using the functionality. Please note that rollback should only be used in cases of obvious vandalism, or to revert your own edits. In all other circumstances, the edit should be manually reverted and an explanation provided in the edit summary. When in doubt, it is better to revert manually with an edit summary. ~~Thanks~~In this case, the edit was not what we would consider obvious vandalism, and ~~good~~should ~~luck!~~have been reverted manually with an explanation provided. This is to ensure that the user being reverted knows why they are being reverted.

Because rollback does not allow for a custom edit summary, it should only be used for '''obvious vandalism'''. It should '''not''' be used to revert [[TSW:AGF\|good faith]] edits or edits that have good intentions. If a good faith edit needs to be reverted, use the undo function or [[Help:Reverting\|manually revert]] the edit and provide an explanation in the edit summary. ==Re: Infobox Sim== ~~You can use rollback to:~~ The new infoboxes haven't been formally rolled out yet. But there's also nothing stopping people from using them, since the intent is that we will eventually be migrating to them. The new infobox rollout has been on a sort of informal hiatus because so many of us have been busy in real life. But AFAIK we still intend to do it sooner or later. -- '''[[User:LostInRiverview\|<span style="color:navy;">LostInRiverview</span>]]<sup> [[User_talk:LostInRiverview\|<font color="green">talk</font>]] · [[User_blog:LostInRiverview\|<font color="green">blog</font>]] · [[Special:Contributions/LostInRiverview\|<font color="green">contribs</font>]]</sup>''' 16:16, June 8, 2018 (UTC) Revert obvious vandalism :It's pretty much ready to use now. We've been waiting on the rollout until we can convert the rest of the "old style" infoboxes to the new style, then we intended to roll all new infoboxes out at one time.

It happens, because rollback works instantly. If you do accidentally rollback an edit you didn't intend to revert, just manually revert the edit and explain it was a mistake. I am concerned about your use of a rollback on the aforementioned page. The revisions you reversed appeared to be in the best interest of the page and brought it up to encyclopedic quality. Could you explain your reasoning, please? It is also worth giving a reason for reversing the changes in the history. Thanks. '''What else do I do after reverting vandalism?''' It's not strictly required, but it would be appropriate to warn the vandal on their user talk page. You can either use a hand-written warning or a [[The Sims Wiki:Warning/List of warnings\|pre-written warning message]]. ~~:Congrats!~~ [[User:~~Auror Andrachome~~Thelevitatingscot\|~~Ѧüя◎ґ~~Thelevitatingscot]] ([[User talk:~~Auror Andrachome~~Thelevitatingscot\|talk]]) 0616:4138, ~~May~~June 288, 2018 (UTC)▼ ~~'''Have any questions?'''

As stated on [[The Sims Wiki:Rollback]], rollback is to be used, "To revert [[Help:Vandalism\|obvious vandalism]] and bad-faith edits, where the reason for reverting is obviously clear." The edit you rolled-back showed no signs of being vandalism, so it appears that your use of rollback in this case was incorrect. The rollback page goes on to say, "Use of rollback in other circumstances, such as to revert a [[TSW:AGF\|good faith]] edit you simply disagree with, is likely to be considered misuse of the tool." ~~<!-- User:K6ka/Uw-rollbackapproved -->~~ ▲:Congrats! [[User:Auror Andrachome\|Ѧüя◎ґ]] ([[User talk:Auror Andrachome\|talk]]) 06:41, May 28, 2018 (UTC) As a member of The Sims Wiki's moderation and administration team (which includes all rollbackers, content moderators, administrators and bureaucrats on TSW), you are held to a high standard of conduct. By my view, it appears that in this case, you have failed to meet that standard. I want you to understand that misusing rollback, or any other tool given to you to help in the moderation and administration of this wiki, is a serious offense that may result in the loss of rollback rights. It appears that you have been warned on at least two prior occasions (once by an administrator/bureaucrat) about the improper use of rollback; this message marks the third such warning. ::Congratulations! :D ― <span style="font-family:'Constantia'; font-weight:bold; font-size:108%;">[[User:C.Syde65\|<font color="maroon">C.Syde</font>]]</span> <span style="font-family:'Adobe Garamond Pro'; font-size:108%;">([[User talk:C.Syde65\|<font color="black">talk</font>]] \| [[:Special:Contributions/C.Syde65\|<font color="black">contribs</font>]])</span> 11:40, May 28, 2018 (UTC) Please reply (either here or on my talk page) and explain to me your choice of actions in this case.
