*[[Help:Blocking|Block]] and unblock users
In general, our "house style" is to italicize the names of games. So, when you see something like <nowiki>''The Sims 3''</nowiki>, and think it needs to be linked, change it to <nowiki>''[[The Sims 3]]''</nowiki> rather than <nowiki>[[The Sims 3]]</nowiki>.

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)

== RE: The Sims 3Image Networkrenaming Error==
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.

:Well, so I guess the launcher is a bit glitchy. Go here [[The Sims 3/Patch 57]] and download it from there. There's a direct link on the article for you to download. It's rather large though, so it takes a while for you to download.

==RE: Vandalism==
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.
 
::Happy birthday, Joseph! :) -- '''[[User:C.Syde65|<font color="maroon">C.Syde</font>]]''' ([[User talk:C.Syde65|<font color="black">talk</font>]] &#124; [[:Special:Contributions/C.Syde65|<font color="black">contribs</font>]]) 21:39, October 25, 2014 (UTC)
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.

==Re: The Sims 2 CAS Lot==
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.

==TS2 Sims skin tones==
I wonder if you had a comparison check when you're making changes to the skin tones of ''The Sims 2'' Sims. Some of the Sims you "corrected" seem to already have the correct skin tones. So I'm asking now if you made a skin tone comparison, or actually checked their skin tones via SimPE one-by-one or what. I use [[User:Nikel23/Gallery|this]] as a guideline when I corrected the skin tones long ago. Tell me if I'm wrong; I might be the wrong one.

::No, Angela Pleasant really does have fit body shape. You don't determine Sim's body shape and skin tone merely by looking at their figure (well, yes, you can sometimes, but that's not the point). You have to look at their personality tab to see their actual fitness. Angela may look thin, but if you look in the game or from SimPE, she has fit body shape. Don might even be thin, on the other hand.
 
::In ''The Sims 3'', there's no real measurement to see whether a Sim is "fit" or "thin" or "fat". It depends on our own perception. But in ''The Sims 2'', it can be determined in the game.

:::Also, it's not unusual for pre-made Sims or Townies in TS2 to have mismatches between their preset fitness levels and preset body shape flags. For example, the preset fitness level may be in the "Fit" range (the upper third), but the "Fit" flag will not be set, so the Sim will appear Thin.

If we could provide more specific information, we should go with it and put either Dark or Light Blue (both count as blue-eyed Sims).

== Blond V Blonde ==
Ok so I did some research, and I found this:
 
:Usage: ''The spellings '''blonde''' and '''blond''' correspond to the feminine and masculine forms in French. Although the distinction is often retained in Britain, American usage since the 1970s has generally preferred the gender-neutral '''blond'''. The adjective '''blonde''' may still refer to a woman's (but not a man's) hair color, although use of the noun risks offence (see that '''blonde''' over there?): the offence arises from the fact that the color of the hair is not the person. The adjective applies to inanimate objects (such as wood or beer) is typically spelled '''blond'''.''
 
So unfortunately I think the wiki may use '''blond''' because, according to the Manual of Style, the wiki generally uses American grammar and spelling rules. I'm not quite sure though so I don't think it should be changed yet, until a bureaucrat agrees. ~ [[User:Waikikamukow|<font color="6a2286">Waikikamukow</font>]] <small>([[User talk:Waikikamukow|<font color="00b0f4">Anyone wanna chat?</font>]])</small> 10:12, December 15, 2013 (UTC)
 
::Yeah, I agree with you: I never really liked the idea either! Regarding ambiguous Sims, I wouldn't have a clue.

== Re: Headshot photos ==
 
''The Sims 2'': I used the program SimPE ([http://sims.ambertation.de/en/download/ link here to download]). Open SimPE, click in Tools tab -> Neighborhood -> Neighborhood Browser, and select the neighborhood where the Sim is. Then click Tools tab -> Neighborhood -> Sim Browser, find the Sim and select. Click the tab Plugin View (lower left corner). Click the More tab -> Open Character File. In the list that appears, browse to the file "jpg/tga/png Image" (usually there are two files with this name, but one is a picture all black, the other appears the Sim normal). Finally, just select Export and specify the location you want to save it to.
 
''The Sims 3'': I used the program S3PE ([http://www.den.simlogical.com/denforum/index.php?topic=189.0 link]). Once installed, enter the game, select the family and send the Sim to change appearance, or change clothes - open the CAS somehow. Save the Sim (clicking in the thumbnail), quit game, open S3PE. Open the file "''Name of Sim.sim3''", it's saved in the SavedSims folder. Click on the SNAP resource whose headshot you want to select. Select Export -> To File. Specify the location you want to save it to. It's done, with a detail, the image has a transparent background, but just use any photo editor to darken.
 
Hope this helps. If you have any questions, ask me! :-)

:IP addresses may be given to other users over time. Some IP addresses are registered, which means they'll always belong to the same owner until they are forcibly reassigned. Some users get their IP addresses and have it changed every once in a while. Many users get an IP address from their ISP once they connect to the Internet, and they lose it once they go offline. Because of this, it's always best to log in before doing anything on a wiki. Wikipedia is aware of this debacle, and thus never blocks IP addresses indefinitely or for a very long period of time.

==Muscular Sims==
I recalled that some of your edits (or few days ago) changed Sim's body type from "muscular" to "fit". I think muscular Sims should be that way, because in ''The Sims 3'', there are Sims with relatively fit body shape, and there are Sims who are physically muscular. I know this kind of estimation is based on someone's perception, but personally I think fit and muscular should be distinct. Oh btw, this doesn't concern ''The Sims 2'' at all, because TS2 clearly only has 3 body shapes.

:::Oh, I see that. I'm not really fond of that idea... For one thing, every single hair color in ''The Sims 3'' are, in fact, customized. Their hair can't be considered "red" because the game can't recognize color, unlike in ''The Sims 2'', which has a limited selection of colors. We say a Sim's hair is "red" because we see and think the hair is "red", so what's the basis if you see a "violet" hair "custom"?

==About reverting edits==
I noticed that you reverted a couple edits to [[Crib]]; it appears that you did so by using the 'undo' button. I wanted to make you aware that there are quicker ways to revert edits in cases where the edits are not vandalism.
 
If an editor makes multiple edits to an article which are in good faith (i.e. are not vandalism), but which still need to be reverted, you can manually revert all the edits simultaneously by editing a previous version of the article. To do this, access the article history and find an earlier revision that you want to restore, then edit it like you would a normal article. When you save the edit, it will over-write anything which was introduced after it. This has the same effect as hitting 'undo' multiple times, but is much quicker and simpler.
 
For more information on ways to revert edits, see [[Help:Reverting]], or talk to me. -- '''[[User:LostInRiverview|<font color="navy">LostInRiverview</font>]]<sup> [[User_talk:LostInRiverview|<font color="green">talk</font>]] ~ [[User_blog:LostInRiverview|<font color="green">blog</font>]]</sup>''' 07:33, January 14, 2014 (UTC)

==Adoption==
 
As far as I'm concerned, child townies don't get adopted in-game. If there aren't any children that have been taken away by the social worker, the game just makes a new child specifically to be adopted. Is there any proof that child townies have been adopted in-game, without making them playable and getting them taken away by the social worker first?

:::::: I always checked to see whether there was any sign of them being pre-made. The answer was always no.

:::::::::Like C.Syde, all the Sims I have had adopted as children were randomly generated on the spot; none have been child townies.

Hi Joseph. I noticed that your talk page has over 45 discussions and is over 50K in size.

:Did it not look like this? Maybe you could try zooming in / out your browser, or try adding some more tabbers to see if it looks like that in the preview.

::You definitely have larger screen resolution. This won't look too good with screen like mine. Try edit the page, add some more tabbers ±10

== Big changes ==
I'm not sure, there doesn't seem to be any icons to represent SimPE. If possible, I could try and create the userbox without an icon / headshot. [[User:C.Syde65|C.Syde65]] ([[User talk:C.Syde65|talk]]) 07:46, February 27, 2014 (UTC)

==RE: Thanks==
==Italicizing game names==
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)
I've noticed that you've been cleaning up some of the italicization for games in the series (e.g. ''The Sims 2'' etc). But, in some cases you're removing italicization that should properly be left in place. Take for example [http://sims.wikia.com/index.php?title=Athletic_%28career%29&diff=575865&oldid=568661 this edit] which removed the italics around ''The Sims 2'' in a block of italicized text. The effect of your action is that the words "The Sims 2" become italicized, but in this situation since the rest of the text is italicized it is proper for the game title to be un-italicized. Whether or not a game title is italicized isn't a major concern, so it probably isn't necessary to go out of your way to correct it where it may be incorrect. -- '''[[User:LostInRiverview|<font color="navy">LostInRiverview</font>]]<sup> [[User_talk:LostInRiverview|<font color="green">talk</font>]] ~ [[User_blog:LostInRiverview|<font color="green">blog</font>]]</sup>''' 07:05, March 6, 2014 (UTC)
