==Which NPCs are safe to play as==

I noticed that you moved the DJs back to the category for NPCs that are considered to be dangerous. But there's a DJ that I've been using for ages and nothing bad has happened.

I converted one of the DJs - [[Amin Graham]] into a [[Townie]] for my game, and so far, the game has treated him as a regular townie - no signs of coruption.

Clearly my information and experience contradicts yours, so I remain unconvinced. Exactly how do you know - or rather what makes you suspect that DJs aren't safe to be made playable?

Ah yes, I get it now. Some players seem to believe that DJs aren't safe because they can't be made playable without cheats. I think once they have been made playable, the game just sees them as Sims, or townies if the player moves them into the townie bin.

I certainly haven't experienced any problems with DJs. '''[[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>]]) 01:38, June 14, 2014 (UTC)

I forgot to say that the reason I removed them rather than shifting them was because I didn't see the list of townies and NPCs that are safe to make playable. '''[[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>]]) 01:41, June 14, 2014 (UTC)

True, and it's possible to meet the Social Worker without cheats! '''[[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>]]) 01:54, June 14, 2014 (UTC)

Have break dancers and human statues been added to the list. Because if not, then I'll be thinking of adding them.

==Changing the page layout==

Hey k6, I've been thinking that we shouldn't change the page layout that we decided. Because if we add some more of it, it would end up like [http://sims.wikia.com/wiki/Chair?diff=prev&oldid=593603 this]. I check too to add the TS3 toilet page layout, but it was still the same as I show. I think that each articles have limitations in this.

:Apologies for butting in (and for not being able to catch up with things due to my absence), but... is that what would happen if a page uses too many infobox templates? If so, then it's a real mess. Also, is this a new discussion or continuation of an old discussion? I want to know the original one.

:I... really don't think we need to list ''every single chair'' that exists in the game. I mean, [https://24.media.tumblr.com/125fd3175a5b1078db059822303cfda4/tumblr_n6u1nyUmr91tbvd1co1_1280.png look at this]! Each chair has no significance to each other, so what's really the point of listing them all? I think we should find an alternative for this. I certainly don't want chairs to have their own separate page for each game. What will even be written there?

::Well, I'm thinking that maybe we could just find the thumbnail of each chair and add it to the page using <nowiki><gallery></nowiki> tag, but then again, I feel like it's really pointless... Certain items in the series are just too insignificant to be singled out.

== RE: A notice ==

Okay I guess I was being tricked into becoming a little too sympathetic. It was actually very convincing that she's not an outright vandal - I'm not sure what to believe but I do agree that she does not deserve to come back. I'm not sure how she'll manage but if the admins keep her away, then at least they should find a better solution or contact wiki staff to ensure that she doesn't come back. Otherwise she'll just continually create sockpuppets.

Also I have no idea why she even bothers coming here, when she has her own fanon Sims wiki. I've taken a look at her website but as far as I'm concerned, it isn't in very good shape. It's hard to know whether [[User:ILoveSims5|ILS5]] is - a user who is desperate for another chance and deserves to return to the Sims wiki, or a user who is deliberately making unconstructive edits (and should have seen her indefinite block coming). -- '''[[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>]]) 20:24, June 20, 2014 (UTC)

==The Next Battle==

I was wondering if you could do the next battle, as the timer for the current battle has expired.

I could do it myself, but you're alot faster at it than I am, so I think it would be best if you did it, as usual! -- '''[[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>]]) 22:10, June 20, 2014 (UTC)

== Claiming my Fanon ==

Subject Fanon Jasper and Fido adventures beyond the backyard. K6ka just asking for you to restore the Fanon Jasper and Fido adventures beyond the backyard. K6ka I am really sorry

I took so long to create an account. Well here

I am trying to claim my Fanon. Is there a way you can bring it back? I mean like reserve it for me to claim? Sorry never made a wiki. Get it to me as soon as you can.

== Image from [[Teen]] ==

I'm not sure how it should be handled, but the same [[Special:Contributions/50.41.109.178|WC]] just removed the same image from the [[teen]] page that was taken down and placed back yesterday. I realize that [[User:MazieB.|the person]] who put it back asked you about it, but because the WC was not involved in that discussion I wonder if this is going to become a warring. Maybe it will just resolve itself, but I suspect that this should be watched out for. Thoughts? [[User:Icemandeaf|Icemandeaf]] ([[User talk:Icemandeaf|talk]]) 18:42, June 21, 2014 (UTC)

:Just to make sure, you would'''<u>n't</u>''' advise reverting because it might provoke an edit war? That was my thought as well, which is why I wanted to ask you. So since you already contacted the IP, I guess we'll just wait and hope for the best. [[User:Icemandeaf|Icemandeaf]] ([[User talk:Icemandeaf|talk]]) 19:05, June 21, 2014 (UTC)

I was thinking more like a [[SimPE]] image. But if no one else does it, I'll do it eventually. I think that article needs a [[SimPE]] headshot. -- '''[[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>]]) 23:36, June 21, 2014 (UTC)

How can I do it?

== Opposing my nomination ==

* If this is what it feels like to be opposed then it’s not so bad. To be honest I’m actually pleased that you haven’t supported my nomination, because it indicates where I’m going wrong. I'd rather be opposed for a good reason than be supported for "nothing". And it's better than simply leaving the discussion page empty.

* While most people normally take time over their edits, I am always in a rush because I feel that I have a mountain of things to do and I just want to get them all done. As a result I often forget to add several bits of information, so then I have to go back and type in the information that slips out of my mind - by which time other editors may already have noticed.

* I often tend to do what many consider to be "A rough job which needs to be polished". I remember making an edit on a page, and another editor came along and tried to improve the grammar of my edit - but in doing so they re-wrote the opposite to what I had intended.

* I have made many mistakes, most of which I am unlikely to repeat - but then there's always a new generation of mistakes, in addition to those mistakes that had no one else pointed them out to me, I would never have noticed.

* Also when others try to explain things to me, I'm in too much of a hurry to actually take the time to consider and understand what they've said. This explains why I often misinterpret advice - such as "taking a step back and think a little bit deeper about what you're doing". Instead I might think of it as "wasting my time thinking about this when I could be jumping ahead to something else".

* Naturally I'm often under the impression that nothing is wrong which is why I express my confidence and experience whilst failing to notice any advice. Instead I might see it as discouragement.

* I can't see myself making any severe mistakes with those administrative tools but with those other mistakes, it doesn't look good. And of course a person can't always predict what they might or might do wrong. Recently I saw a nomination for administration-ship and thought "why has no one nominated me"? The answer was soon to be there waiting.

* I'm unlikely to repeat those mistakes "blanking a page" or "making false assumptions regarding a certain user and their sockpuppets". And before I understood the concept of archiving a talk page, I removed some messages in order to show myself in a better light. Or back then I just didn’t want my talk page flooded. But that still doesn't mean that the 'charges' have been cleared...yet.

* Now that I'm aware of these mistakes, I'm sure I can learn from them, and spend more time on things rather than jumping ahead. With that, I'll develop into a much better editor at a remarkably quick pace - being a quick learner.

== A couple of things ==

I noticed that you were doing some block notice test pages under your user name. I have always wondered if the borders should be rounded like everything else seems to be, so I looked at the coding. I noticed there were some coding for rounding just like the family templates did. I think that the newer browsers are no longer supporting -moz-border-radius and -webkit-border-radius, but using border-radius. I didn't edit your test pages to add that code because it is under your user page, but I thought you might want to be aware of that because there are more and more newer browsers viewing the wiki now.

The other thing I wanted to ask was related to blocking. (Thanks for the link to the information about it because it really helped me understand it more, though it might still be a while before it all sinks in.) What is the typical length of blocking? I noticed you gave 1 week to an IP last week, and then the IP repeated vandalism, and you gave a 2 week block. What is it after that? And are all first blocks 1 week? Or is there some things that merit a different length? - [[User:Icemandeaf|Icemandeaf]] ([[User talk:Icemandeaf|talk]]) 16:15, June 26, 2014 (UTC)

== RE:Redirect instead of delete ==

Sorry, I thought that it would lead to deletion if it was a typo or an unofficial name like "Gypsy caravan" to "Gypsy wagon".
