Please keep in mind that, even though you are an administrator, you're not "in charge" of the wiki, you're but a, shall we say... "janitor". You should only use your tools to clean up vandalism or for non-controversial housekeeping tasks. They should '''not''' be used to gain advantage over a content dispute. If you are in a content dispute, consult [[wikipedia:WP:DR|dispute resolution]] and talk it out with the other editors.
==RE: Restoring Neighborhoods==
It seems that you've done it right, except for the storytelling picture. First, go to your saved game folder in ''My Documents\EA Games\The Sims 2\Neighborhoods\N001'' (Pleasantview for example). You'll notice it's missing the Storytelling folder. Make one and leave it there. Now, go back to your installed game directory in UserData folder (the folder where you got the original neighborhoods). There's a Storytelling folder there.
'''Don't feel like you're obliged to use your tools'''. You don't have to use your tools if you don't want to. If you're uncomfortable in a situation, you reserve the full right to back out of it, and ask another administrator to handle it for you. Remember, Wikia is a volunteer service! We want you to be comfortable editing here!
Inside the Storytelling folder, find the screenshots you want. Remember, there's snapshot, and there's thumbnail. I'm sure you know which photo album belongs to which family. Notice that the snapshot (or thumbnail) has a file name like <code>snapshot_xxxxxxxx_yyyyyyyy</code> The x's are the family instance. So for example you want the Broke snapshots, the x's are 2dae7a30. Now find the XML file in that folder as well named <code>webentry_2dae7a30</code>.
There is a help page on administrators over at [[w:Help:Administrators|Community Central]]. You can go there and read over how to use the tools! And if you want to experiment, you can play around in your own user space. If you have questions regarding the administrator tools, you are always more than welcome to ask us, either at the [[The Sims Wiki:Administrators' noticeboard]], at [[The Sims Wiki:IRC Channel|our IRC channel]], or on [[User talk:K6ka|my talk page]].
Copy the snapshots, the thumbnails, and the XML file to the Storytelling folder in your saved game again. Do that to all the families in the same neighborhood, and there you have the photo albums again. :) [[User:Nikel23|'''<span style="color:#007FFF; text-shadow: #ACE5EE 0 4px 4px;">Nikel</span>''']] [[User talk:Nikel23|<span style="color: #30D5C8 ; text-shadow: #00FFEF 0 4px 4px;"><sub>''Talk''</sub></span>]] <sub>–</sub> [[The Sims Wiki:Featured Media/Voting|<span style="color:red ; text-shadow:#E97451 0 4px 4px;"><sub>''Vote!''</sub></span>]] 07:18, August 7, 2013 (UTC)

I quit patching through the launcher and downloaded the patch manually instead. It was rather buggy and every once in a while it said my game was up to date even though there were new store patches. Which version do you exactly have right now? 1.55 or 1.57? Just a note that I don't log in while playing anymore. And I haven't patched my game to 1.57, so I can't test it for you.

Done. In the future, requests like this can go at the freshly made [[The Sims Wiki:Administrators' noticeboard|administrators' noticeboard]]. It needs a little more action. --'''[[:User:K6ka|k6ka]]''' ([[:User talk:K6ka|talk]] | [[:Special:Contributions/K6ka|contribs]]) 01:52, August 3, 2014 (UTC)

Hi Joey. I did revert that edit, but I chose not to issue a warning. One of the main tenets of wiki editing is to [[The Sims Wiki:Assume good faith|assume that a user is trying to help the wiki]] even if the result of their edit is not positive. Looking at the edit and simply noticing that it was a large edit doesn't mean it was done on purpose; accidents do happen, especially with people who have never edited a wiki before. Aside from that, some people might 'test' edit, since they might be unconvinced or unaware that their changes really do take effect immediately.
So, as I said, I did not issue a warning, since the edit in my opinion was not vandalism and it was an isolated incident. Often the best solution in cases like this is to just undo the damage and leave it at that. I hope you can appreciate my reasoning and justification in taking this action.

:Your nomination for rollback has been approved. As a rollback, you have access to the Rollback tool, which allows you to undo multiple edits in a single click. You are also allowed to use the {{t|Warning}} template on offending users; ''note that you may only use '''level 1''' or '''level 2''' warnings''. For more information on how to issue warnings, check the [[Template:Warning/doc|warning documentation]]. If you have any other questions or concerns about this, or about anything else, please do not hesitate to ask me or another administrator.

==RE: Sandboxes==
Hey Joey (or Joseph, whichever you prefer!). Sandboxes are relatively simple to make. You just have to create a new page, and call it "User:Joey.eyeball/Sandbox", because then it will be linked to your main user page.
==Welcome back==
There's a button on the right of the navigation menu ("on the wiki", "content" etc.) that is called "contribute" and there you can create the page. Just remember to add the "User:" bit so it connects to your user page.
Hey Joey.eyeball. You might not know me, but I noticed you started editing again. Welcome back! :) [[User:Sims2Player|<font color="red">'''Sims'''</font>]] [[File:Plumbob.png|7px|link=User:Sims2Player]] [[User:Sims2Player|<font color="blue">'''Player'''</font>]] ([[User talk:Sims2Player|talk]]) ([[Special:Contributions/Sims2Player|mistakes]]) 13:53, June 12, 2016 (UTC)
:Long time no see, Joseph! :D A lot has happened since the last time you edited. But then you probably are already aware of the many changes that have taken place, assuming that you've been observing those changes every once in a while, during your editing absence. ― '''[[User:C.Syde65|<font color="maroon">C.Syde</font>]]''' ([[User talk:C.Syde65|<font color="black">talk</font>]] | [[:Special:Contributions/C.Syde65|<font color="black">contribs</font>]]) 23:02, June 14, 2016 (UTC)

I hope my explanation made sense. Don't hesitate to ask again if you found what I said confusing because I'd be happy to help!

Yes, I found the lot with SimPe and imported it into the game. I done it in brand new custom neighborhood since I didn't want it to interfere with my Sim and lot files. When you place the lot in neighborhood, it will look like empty. But when you enter it, you will see TWO roads, and the CAS house. Inside, there will be only 3 objects. First, there is a window in the room where you design your Sim (window is hidden in-game, but Numenor [http://modthesims.info/download.php?t=161887 uploaded it] on MTS.
Second object is a mirror, half of living chair and bunch of wall images/paintings (all of these are actually one object that you can't delete). Third object is everything from the room Sims wait for setting relations (again, it can't be deleted). Outside, there are few trees. Note that lot may cause corruption so place it in empty neighborhood where you don't play or build. [http://modthesims.info/t/180469 This] is a tutorial for custom CAS screen but it also shows how to import the lot in game.

Well? You've probably noticed that I'm an administrator now, and several other major changes. The wiki started to lose a lot of active editors in 2016 with not enough new editors to take their place. But as of 2018, the wiki seems to be becoming more socially active again. Also the wiki has a Discord server now, though I'm not sure if you've ever come across Discord at any point. ― <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> 12:07, June 17, 2018 (UTC)
Hi Joseph. I wanted to inform you that you've been nominated for administratorship on The Sims Wiki. Please consider whether you would like to pursue administratorship, and leave your response to the nomination on the Requests for Administratorship page.
Please keep in mind that, even though you are an administrator, you're not "in charge" of the wiki, you're but a, shall we say... "janitor". You should only use your tools to clean up vandalism or for non-controversial housekeeping tasks. They should not be used to gain advantage over a content dispute. If you are in a content dispute, consult dispute resolution and talk it out with the other editors.
Don't feel like you're obliged to use your tools. You don't have to use your tools if you don't want to. If you're uncomfortable in a situation, you reserve the full right to back out of it, and ask another administrator to handle it for you. Remember, Wikia is a volunteer service! We want you to be comfortable editing here!
There is a help page on administrators over at Community Central. You can go there and read over how to use the tools! And if you want to experiment, you can play around in your own user space. If you have questions regarding the administrator tools, you are always more than welcome to ask us, either at the The Sims Wiki:Administrators' noticeboard, at our IRC channel, or on my talk page.
We're happy to have you on The Sims Wiki's administrative team! Good luck, and have fun out there! --k6ka (talk | contribs) 21:00, August 7, 2014 (UTC)
Done. In the future, requests like this can go at the freshly made administrators' noticeboard. It needs a little more action. --k6ka (talk | contribs) 01:52, August 3, 2014 (UTC)
Congrats Joseph! You are the Featured Editor for October 2014! I've added the template to your userpage which you are free to move/remove. Once again, congratulations! -- C.Syde (talk | contribs) 22:05, September 30, 2014 (UTC)
Do you mind to tell me where you find these Sims' names? I'm sure I've heard their names somewhere, but I don't know where. Are they in the Gallery? NikelTalk–Vote! 05:12, October 10, 2014 (UTC)

VisualEditor no good with Battles page[edit source]
The VisualEditor is notorious for screwing up our pages, and especially our battles page. If you want to vote or comment on a battle, please use the classic editor instead. You can do this by either clicking on the drop down menu next to the Edit button and selecting "Classic Editor", or by choosing "Classic Rich Text Editor" or "Source Editor" as the default editor in Special:Preferences. --I am k6kaTalk to me!See what I have done 02:49, October 26, 2014 (UTC)
