RE: The tutorial neighborhood [edit source]

I'm not sure if that's even possible. :| ― C.Syde (talk | contribs) 08:11, September 12, 2015 (UTC)

RE: Nikel [edit source]

Articles tagged with {{Missing-info}} are listed in Category:Missing info. --I am k6ka Talk to me! See what I have done 14:13, September 12, 2015 (UTC)

You can browse Category:Site maintenance to see which articles that need to be looked after if you're interested. Nikel Talk Vote! 06:05, September 16, 2015 (UTC)

RE: [edit source]

Nominations and applications for user rights are approved or rejected by community consensus, and "community" refers to the wiki as a whole, not just administrators. So yes, you may comment. (They are not considered "votes" — majority does not simply rule) --I am k6ka Talk to me! See what I have done 14:43, September 12, 2015 (UTC)

Questionable rollbacks [edit source]

I've noticed some of your rollbacks may have been used either 1. Incorrectly, or 2. Were used in a situation where an edit summary would have been appropriate. Reverts like [1][2][3][4] and [5] seem to have undone a potentially good-faith edit, and should have been reverted using the undo function instead, with a proper edit summary. Please note that rollback should only be used:

  1. For absolute, obvious vandalism (See Wikipedia:Vandalism)
  2. To revert your own edits
  3. To mass-revert incorrect but good-faith edits, provided that an explanation was provided somewhere else, such as the user talk page of the editor in question
  4. To revert edits from a malfunctioning bot, provided that an explanation was provided somewhere else.

When in doubt, do not revert, or revert only with an edit summary. Improper use of rollback can bite newcomers and gives the wiki a bad light, and in severe cases, may result in a revocation of privileges. Please let me know if you have any questions. Thank you.
--I am k6ka Talk to me! See what I have done 14:58, September 12, 2015 (UTC)

I never thought bad of you; in fact, the reason why I left you this message is because of the fact that we're human and that we all make mistakes. A mistake is only a mistake, however, if you learn from it. If my philosophy was that everyone had to be perfect and mistakes were sacrilegious, I would never have even bothered to edit a wiki. --I am k6ka Talk to me! See what I have done 17:39, September 12, 2015 (UTC)
I'd like to direct your attention to [6]. While not a rollback, it was still an unexplained revert. The edit in question seemed misguided, but not in bad faith. Please provide an edit summary in such cases. --I am k6ka Talk to me! See what I have done 18:20, September 24, 2015 (UTC)
The issue I brought up is with your explanation of the revert not being in the edit summary, not that it, in itself, was incorrect. As I have said, The edit in question seemed misguided, but not in bad faith. --I am k6ka Talk to me! See what I have done 18:41, September 24, 2015 (UTC)

Nomination for moderator rights [edit source]

Hi! I was wondering if C.Syde would mind if I had rights on his wiki since I've never edited there? I don't want to upset him. Please let me know and then I'll accept the offer, Also, sorry I haven't been editing on here that much lately. I've been busy with birthday stuff, family emergency and then having to go shopping for necessary stuff. It's really cut my editing time down to nothing. This next week should be better and I should be back to editing regularly again. Hope you have a great day! - Sapphire Moondust (talk) 15:24, September 12, 2015 (UTC)

Okay, thank you for letting me know. I accepted the rights, so now we'll see what happens. Thank you for the nomination. :) - Sapphire Moondust (talk) 15:49, September 12, 2015 (UTC)


Check It Out [edit source]

Hey, Sim? Did you see my "Predator" pages yet? I came up with the family back in, I believe July, and the property. As a funny result: I turned almost every place in The Sims Bustin' Out into that type of place. Check them out and see what you think. They're Fanon: Recreational Free Street 1, Fanon: Predator Family, Fanon: Corithian Predator, Fanon: Chase Predator, and Fanon: Blaze Predator. I hope you like them.--2014ChevyGirl (talk) 20:48, September 24, 2015 (UTC)

RE: File [edit source]

Done Although I would like to ask, what sort of "zodiac sign" are you referring to? --I am k6ka Talk to me! See what I have done 21:48, September 25, 2015 (UTC)

Deleted comments [edit source]

Several comments that you made to Fanon:Ezbenzer Alto have been deleted because they did not fit the topic of the fanon article. Be aware that debating or arguing with other users is generally not permissible in fanon comment sections; those sections are intended for comment on the fanon work itself. If you have any questions about this, please contact me on my talk page. - LostInRiverview talkblogcontribs 15:15, September 28, 2015 (UTC)

Uploading newer versions of images [edit source]

Hello, and thank you for your contributions to the wiki. I noticed that you have been busy uploading newer, better versions of our existing images. That's great and all, but I noticed that you uploaded them using different filenames, and then simply replaced the images on the page they were used on. This results in the old file being abandoned and "orphaned", and just creates a new file name on the wiki. In the future, please go to the existing file page (You can access this by clicking on the image, and then clicking the file name at the top of the popup) and click the "Upload a new version" link, located on the file history tab. This will allow you to upload a new version of the file. The old file will still be visible and available in the file history, and it can be restored in case you make a mistake. Uploading a new version of the file automatically updates all usages of the file (so you do not need to manually update the file links), and also allows you to keep the same file name, which saves the hassle of having to deal with duplicate or multiple files of the same thing, and saves administrators the tedious task of having to delete the old images.

If you have any questions, please let me know. Also, if you have uploaded a new version of a file and it doesn't seem to be updating, please wait at least ten minutes instead of reuploading. The delay is caused by database lag, as it takes time for a change to be propagated and processed by Wikia's servers. --I am k6ka Talk to me! See what I have done 17:18, October 2, 2015 (UTC)

RE: I want your permission [edit source]

You want my honest opinion? Well, my honest opinion is I would strongly advise against listing yourself as an adopter. It is too soon since the issues you've had with another user and you're currently listed at TSW:ER. Not only are most of your edits minor, I haven't really seen a demonstration of maturity in your actions, and you (still) seem to easily misinterpret others actions as being negative, and your tone of writing towards me implies that I am against you. This isn't how an adopter should behave. Keep in mind that experience and seemingly high-level positions come through time and patience, and you can't jump the stairs. (You can't take the elevator either) In my personal experience, if you keep trying to attain a position in a short period of time, you'll usually fail and it becomes very clear then that you can't build Rome in a day. You can't build trust in a day, and you can't build experience in a day. All three of these things takes time to build. --I am k6ka Talk to me! See what I have done 18:11, October 2, 2015 (UTC)

Welcoming users [edit source]

When welcoming new users (in the event that User:Wikia, which normally does this automatically, is down), please use the {{Welcome}} and {{WelcomeIP}} templates rather than copy-and-pasting. See the template documentation on how to use the template (do not forget to subst them!). Thanks, --I am k6ka Talk to me! See what I have done 14:35, October 8, 2015 (UTC)

Better not to risk it, or more time is wasted. AldoHyde 17:08, October 10, 2015 (UTC)

Just use similar stuff as the bathroom in STM Bianca's house, and it should be safe. Each time I come into chat, I lose video editing time :( AldoHyde 17:20, October 10, 2015 (UTC)

RE: The Sim's Pen [edit source]

Yeah, I've already written my next pen blog. So yours unfortunately will have to wait for the following issue. ― C.Syde (talk | contribs) 05:07, October 15, 2015 (UTC)

Using the {{Unsigned}} template [edit source]

Just to let you know, the {{Unsigned}} template should be substituted, not transcluded. To substitute a template, add "subst:" after the opening brackets but before the template name. For example, {{subst:Unsigned|Foo Bar|00:00, January 1, 2001}}. Substituting a template copies the template content to the page and makes it a part of the page, so if the original template is changed, the substituted template will not reflect that change. This is important on talk pages, especially archived ones, since it's expected that content generally remains the same as it was when it was active. Thanks, --I am k6ka Talk to me! See what I have done 16:42, October 15, 2015 (UTC)

Ah, I see. Thanks though for telling me! :) Sims Player (talk) (mistakes) 16:44, October 15, 2015 (UTC)

RE: Question [edit source]

Hi, S2P! Your idea sounds good; unfortunately, I'm not the best guy to ask, as I don't write The Sims Wiki News. Try pitching your idea to K6ka or LostInRiverview! But I think that's a good idea for a new competition in TSWN! — The Tim Man (TSWAHMGWContribs) 22:34, October 15, 2015 (UTC)

The Sim's Pen reminder (25 Oct 2015) [edit source]

Hello Sims2Player. This is to remind you that according to The Sims Wiki:News team, you signed up to do this week's edition of The Sim's Pen (25 Oct, 2015). Please do it at your soonest convenience. If you fail to complete it, a backup writer may come along to take your place. Thank you. --I am k6ka Talk to me! See what I have done 00:57, October 25, 2015 (UTC)

Stopping by to say hi! :) [edit source]

hi—Preceding unsigned comment added by Lukas11xxf (talkcontribs) 22:07, October 26, 2015‎ (UTC) - Please sign your comments with ~~~~

Removing comments from your talk page [edit source]

Just a couple FYIs regarding your talk page...

First, Lukas11xxf was the person who left the comment on your talk page, so he is allowed to remove it if he wants. The message that you left on their talk page in response could be seen as biting the Newbies, so in the future I'd advise you to keep an eye on the tone of your response and avoid the appearance of hostility.

Second, while it is your right to remove content from your own talk page, I would suggest that you refrain from doing so, and instead archive your messages. Removing content from your page can give the impression that you are trying to hide this information from others (even though you cannot hide it completely, due to the page history), possibly to avoid scrutiny for actions you've taken. As I've said, you can remove any content on your own talk page, but you may want to consider how others will perceive these actions.

Contact me if you have any questions or concerns. -- LiR talkblogcontribs 16:03, October 31, 2015 (UTC)

Editing file pages [edit source]

Hi Sims2Player. I have already asked you on chat a long time ago to keep your edits to file pages in one edit, doing everything in one edit rather than making two edits. This is done to prevent premature flooding of recent changes. Please stop ignoring advice after you acknowledge them; I have the chat logs to prove that you have read my messages. --I am k6ka Talk to me! See what I have done 12:45, November 11, 2015 (UTC)

And if I add the categories while I edit the summary, will it then show up right? What? If you click the "Edit" button at the top of the file page you will be able to make changes to all of the page, that includes categories. There's no reason why they will not show up. You can edit categories in the editing window. --I am k6ka Talk to me! See what I have done 13:01, November 11, 2015 (UTC)

Re: Hello! [edit source]

Hey :) Long time no see :P Thanks very much for caring, I really appreciate it. I'm fine, it's just I don't have that much time to spend anywhere, yeah because of school work and whatsoever (It's school, not college :P but yeah they're pretty close right now so consider it whatever :P) But yes, apparently there's a lot of terrorist attacks and bombing here in Lattakia, but mostly they are at crowded locations and stuff and luckily nobody from our family or relatives or friends got injured. And hearing those things about France, and Lebanon and etc.. has literally made me sick. Do you remember a time when the world was a bit calm and quiet an serene? I don't think so :P ! Anyway thank you very much for caring. :) How are you recently? Imasexysimlover (talk) 05:40, November 17, 2015 (UTC)

Well apparently you know how to balance your life more than I will ever XD There's also a powercut that's been happening recently on the style of 4 hours off 2 hours on so that ruined all of my schedule, but I'll return the way I was months ago or die trying :P !

Map Game [edit source]

Hey S2P! Remember the map game I was talking about earlier this month? Well, the spot for the Dutch equivalent is now open! If you want to play as that nation, now's your chance! ;)

Re: Caption This [edit source]

Do me a favor. Go to my talk page and read the second paragraph in the green box at the top of the page. If you still have any concerns after that, please let me know. -- LiR talkblogcontribs 16:48, November 30, 2015 (UTC)

It needs to be updated but I've been so busy I haven't had the chance to do it. As for visibility... I doubt putting it in Community Corner will do much good, but it wouldn't hurt to try it anyways. I know that K6ka has suggested that we put it back into blog format (not necessarily as part of the Weekly News blog, but that's a possibility as well), as he thinks that people might be intimidated by editing the page to leave their caption versus leaving it in a blog comment. If you and I can't come up with some idea, perhaps we should start a community discussion, try to get input from others? -- LiR talkblogcontribs 17:16, November 30, 2015 (UTC)

Thank you! [edit source]

That really did help. Thanks so much. :D I've always wanted to know how it worked. I hope the coding works on other wikis too. WayfinderOwl (talk) 15:29, December 1, 2015 (UTC)

Edit on my fanon [edit source]

Hello. You recently contributed my Fanon about Nico Holeczi and I'm planning to add more Holeczi family members. But My name is not Nico Holeczi, and sim's name is not Nico Filippo. You commented this as "non-fanon". Tell me why?

RE: Award [edit source]

Thank you, that was a nice surprise! Vpetmad (talk) 16:18, December 9, 2015 (UTC)

Check in [edit source]

Hey S2P! I know we've chatted a few times on Wiki Chat, and have exchanged a few messages between talk pages, but I wanted to stop by now and talk to you about... anything in particular. Basically, I'm just checking in and seeing how things are going for you on The Sims Wiki.

Specifically, I'm looking for any way that I can help you, or any way that I can make things better here on the wiki. Since you're an active contributor here, your input is very valuable, and I'd love to hear any comments, concerns, questions or ideas you may have about how to improve the wiki, be it for general issues or a specific thing or things. Drop me a message on my talk page if anything in particular comes to your mind.

I also wanted to thank you for the contributions you've made to the wiki and the many ways you've helped out over the past few months. I hope you'll continue to be a valued editor here into the new year and beyond.

So, to close off for now, don't hesitate to send me a message if you can think of any way to make The Sims Wiki better, or have any questions or concerns.

Thanks -- LiR talkblogcontribs 05:18, December 10, 2015 (UTC)

P.S. - The editing restriction that had been in place between you and DarkSuicune has been removed and no longer applies. Of course, be sure to adhere to wiki policies when editing and commenting. I apologize for the delay in getting the restriction lifted. -- LiR talkblogcontribs 05:28, December 10, 2015 (UTC)

Your fanon Sim NPCs[edit source]

I've just checked and there's several of your fanon Sim NPCs that don't have the sign-mismatch template added to their pages, but I've checked in-game to see if those Sims had mismatched signs and they do.
