Dealing with unsigned comments
Here's a tip: When editors don't sign their comments on talk pages and request for permission pages (or anywhere else where they have to sign), just go into the page history, locate the revision that included their text, copy their username/IP address, edit the current revision, and place {{subst:unsigned|Username|optional date parameter, should be in UTC}} next to their comment.
For example:

Result of Administratorship nomination
Your administratorship nomination has been declined at the present time. Note that you will not be able to apply for administrator or be nominated for the next 30 days, under RfA rules. If you have any questions or concerns about this decision or about the RfA rules, please contact me or another active bureaucrat. -- LostInRiverview talk ~ blog 01:28, February 5, 2014 (UTC)
I can't deny that you may be a bit young to be an admin, but aside from that, it would have been great if your administrator nomination had been approved :) C.Syde65 (talk) 04:32, February 5, 2014 (UTC)
- IMO, the key phrase is "at the present time". I hope that you'll re-apply in a month or two. Dharden (talk) 17:23, February 5, 2014 (UTC)
- By "young", do you mean by age or experience? Experience goes much further than age does, C.Syde. There are teenagers that are administrators on Wikipedia. I'm a teenager, and I have more experience in wikis than many adults (in fact, I actually have faith in wikis where most adults think 70% of the content on wikis are made up, and some teachers even show their students how to vandalize Wikipedia. They're supposed to be "old enough to know better").
- What I mean is that sometimes some people may be a bit young for some things, regardless of how experienced they are. I'm not putting down Joseph's experience, he is definitely as experienced, if not more than I am - considering that he's been contributing to this wikia longer than I have. As a matter of fact on the inside, I'm not putting down Joseph for his age.
I've only been playing the Sims 2 since July 2011 and I'm probably as experienced a player as any. I'm not yet an Adult myself, but I'm not far short from becoming one. C.Syde65 (talk) 06:09, February 7, 2014 (UTC)
RE: Rolling back your own edits
Actually, you can rollback your own edits. The reason why your experiment didn't work is because rollback reverts all consecutive edits by one user to the last revision not made by that user. The reason why your experiment in your sandbox didn't work is because you were the only contributor to that page. Rollback can't revert a page that only one person edited, because there's nothing to revert to. K6ka (talk | contribs) 03:34, February 9, 2014 (UTC)
Re:Monsters under the bed
I'm sorry. I do have a question, then. I had Supernatural but NOT Generations, and I didn't get the Check for Monsters option until I installed Generations. Do you know why that would happen? The Raven - Nevermore 22:26, February 10, 2014 (UTC)Slade81
Facial Hair
Sideburns count as facial hair, don't they? Malcolm Landgraab IV has sideburns. C.Syde65 (talk) 06:24, February 14, 2014 (UTC)
Archiving your talk page
Hi Joseph. I noticed that your talk page has over 45 discussions and is over 50K in size. Because of its growing size (and age), I strongly recommend that you archive your talk page. Instructions on how to archive your talk page is in the link provided - the only difference is 1. There are no bots that will automatically do it for you on Wikia (yet), 2. The archive boxes there do not exist on this wiki (we use a different template), and 3. There's no index or search bar function.
If you need help archiving, feel free to take a look at my own talk page and see how I've archived my talk page (remember that you need to enter source mode in order to properly archive a page), and some other users have archived their talk pages as well. If you are still confused or need help, or if you want me to archive your page for you (I'll be happy to do that!), you can drop me a message. K6ka (talk | contribs) 03:05, February 18, 2014 (UTC)
Luis Aspir's Simology
I added a period to enthusiasm tabber in Luis Aspir's Simology to separate the tabbers into two rows. If the period isn't there, the entire tabbers will be pushed down below the Sim infobox. But I just want to make sure that I'm not the only one who sees this. Did it look that way when you removed the period? Nikel Talk – Vote! 06:17, February 27, 2014 (UTC)
- 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. Nikel Talk – Vote! 06:35, February 27, 2014 (UTC)
- 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

Userbox/SimPE
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. C.Syde65 (talk) 07:46, February 27, 2014 (UTC)
Italicizing game names
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 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. -- LostInRiverview talk ~ blog 07:05, March 6, 2014 (UTC)
