== Welcome! ==
[[File:Wiki.png|120px|right|link=Main Page]]
Hello, {{PAGENAME}}, and welcome to ''Wikisimpsons''!

Thank you for {{#if:|your edits to the [[:{{{1}}}]] article and}} taking an interest in our wiki. If you have any troubles, feel free to ask questions on any experienced editors' talk page. Also, you could look at a [[Help:Contents|help page]].

Here are a few pages to help out new editors such as yourself:

*[[Help:Contents|Help pages, your first stop if you need any help]]
*[[Help:Editing|Editing help, in case you have questions on how to properly edit articles]]
*[[Wikisimpsons:Policies and Guidelines|Policy pages]] - Failure to abide by these will result in consequences.

Please sign your name on talk pages by using four tildes (<nowiki>~~~~</nowiki>). This will automatically produce your name and the date. Signing your comments is important, as it lets other editors know who has posted which comments.

Again, welcome! [[User:Cook879|Cook879]] 07:19, 22 January 2012 (EST)

== Episode names ==
Hi, when linking to episode names, we use speech marks either side of them. i.e. "[[Good Night]]". This includes in reference tags etc. Thanks, ☆[[User:Solar Dragon|The Solar Dragon]] ([[User talk:Solar Dragon|Talk]] - [[Special:Contributions/Solar Dragon|Contribs.]])☆ 17:11, 27 January 2012 (EST)

== Signature ==
Hi, your signature must actually state your username, it can't just be a blank box. Please read [[Wikisimpsons:Signature]] for more details. Thanks, ☆[[User:Solar Dragon|The]] [[User talk:Solar Dragon|Solar]] [[Special:Contributions/Solar Dragon|Dragon]]☆ 13:09, 29 January 2012 (EST)
:What about an expain template thing? [[User:Randomno|Randomno]] 13:11, 29 January 2012 (EST)
::No, it must state your username without having to hover over anything. Sorry about that. [[User:Solar Dragon|The Solar Dragon]] ([[User talk:Solar Dragon|Talk]] - [[Special:Contributions/Solar Dragon|Contribs.]]) 13:11, 29 January 2012 (EST)

== Template:Months ==
Hi, I deleted your template for Months and days. This was something we discussed a while ago and we decided against it in the end. We do, however, have the "On this day" template on the main page which fulfills the same function. Thanks, ☆[[User:Solar Dragon|The Solar Dragon]] ([[User talk:Solar Dragon|Talk]] - [[Special:Contributions/Solar Dragon|Contribs.]])☆ 14:55, 29 January 2012 (EST)
:Where's the discussion? When I saw I had a new message, I guessed it was about that. Otherwise, we need more year pages. We include guest stars births and deaths, but only on pages with episodes broadcast back then. {{User:Randomno/sig4}} 10:28, 30 January 2012 (EST)
::It was decided at an editor meeting, although I can't remember which one (you'll have to look through the logs at [[Wikisimpsons:Editor meetings]]). And we won't be making any more year articles either as that would be kind of pointless. We do have the On this day template that does fulfill the features of the day articles though. <big><big>[[User:Solar Dragon|The Solar Dragon]] ([[User talk:Solar Dragon|Talk]] - [[Special:Contributions/Solar Dragon|Contribs.]])</big></big> 10:37, 30 January 2012 (EST)
:::That doesn't make sense, though. And the on this day template only shows today and is quite complicated for unexperienced users to look through. {{User:Randomno/sig2}} 10:42, 30 January 2012 (EST)

== Welcome templates ==
We use the "welcomeanon" template to welcome IP addresses. -- [[User:Mythigator|Mythigator]] 11:04, 6 February 2012 (EST)
:I spoke a bit prematurely. I think I see what you're trying to do (tweak the welcome templates, correct?), but the above is good to keep in mind, regardless. Sorry for any confusion! -- [[User:Mythigator|Mythigator]] 11:07, 6 February 2012 (EST)
:I know what to do. I was substituting that as you're supposed to. And I fixed your signature. I have had a live on Wikia, you know (which, yes you do (I hope)). {{User:Randomno/sig2}} 11:08, 6 February 2012 (EST)
::Thanks for the signature fix. I realized I screwed it up, but I didn't have time to do anything about it because I had to get to work. Again, sorry 'bout the misunderstanding with the welcome templates. -- [[User:Mythigator|Mythigator]] 15:12, 6 February 2012 (EST)

== Lisa Simpson, This Isn't Your Life ==
The case was correct the way it was. -- [[User:Mythigator|Mythigator]] 12:55, 18 February 2012 (EST)
:I don't know if it is, but I can't find out whether it is or not. {{User:Randomno/sig2}} 13:43, 18 February 2012 (EST)
::For episode and story titles, Wikipedia follows the convention I grew up with, which is to capitalize everything except articles, prepositions and conjunctions. With the title of the {{w|Lisa Simpson, This Isn't Your Life|episode under discussion}}, Wikipedia capitalizes all of the words because none of them fall under any of those three categories. -- [[User:Mythigator|Mythigator]] 18:32, 18 February 2012 (EST)

== ''Tapped Out'' on Wikipedia. ==

Randomno, I see you have a Wikipedia account. Can you make an article for ''[[The Simpsons: Tapped Out]]'' on Wikipedia? Thanks, [[User:Phinbart|Phinbart - just one of the huge Bart fans!]] 06:31, 17 March 2012 (EDT)
:Why would he do that? We are in competition with them you know. [[User:Solar Dragon|The]] [[User talk:Solar Dragon|Solar]] [[Special:Contributions/Solar Dragon|Dragon]] 06:37, 17 March 2012 (EDT)
::PHINBART!!!!! Randomno, don't listen to this nonsense. --[[User:Frederick|<big>Fred</big>]] ([[User talk:Frederick|Talk]] '''•''' [[Special:Contributions/Frederick|Contribs.]]) 06:40, 17 March 2012 (EDT)
:::Oh, right, hi. We're in competition with them? Anyway, people at Wikipedia don't make that many Simpsons articles, so I think Tapped Out would be in a list of Simpsons games. Still, Solar has an account too, and I don't have the game. {{User:Randomno/sig2}} 06:42, 17 March 2012 (EDT)
::::And Fred, you conflicted me. :| {{User:Randomno/sig2}} 06:42, 17 March 2012 (EDT)
:::::Sorry, Randomno. It is a habit of mine :P. --[[User:Frederick|<big>Fred</big>]] ([[User talk:Frederick|Talk]] '''•''' [[Special:Contributions/Frederick|Contribs.]]) 06:47, 17 March 2012 (EDT)
::::::I was thinking about a poor-quality article like this:
'''The Simpsons: Tapped Out''' is a game for iOS, that was first released on February 17, 2012.
[[User:Phinbart|Phinbart - just one of the huge Bart fans!]] 06:53, 17 March 2012 (EDT)
:I know that bit. {{User:Randomno/sig2}} 06:54, 17 March 2012 (EDT)
== SROAOF pics ==
Why are you uploading screenshots of "[[Simpsons Roasting on an Open Fire]]"? [[User:Phinbart|Phinbart - just one of the huge Bart fans!]] 12:26, 21 March 2012 (EDT)
:I'm going to try and do a lot more for episodes, so we can get our ''own'' framegrabs. Don't worry about the renaming part, I'll have that fixed when I do my next batch. {{User:Randomno/sig2}} 12:29, 21 March 2012 (EDT)
::Erm...I think we should discuss having framegrab pages at the next editor meeting - which is on Saturday. I'll add it to the list. Good idea though - I had one of uploading scans of ''Simpsons World''. [[User:Phinbart|Phinbart - just one of the huge Bart fans!]] 12:31, 21 March 2012 (EDT)
:::Well, there's no bad things about it, but I might wait until Saturday then. {{User:Randomno/sig2}} 12:32, 21 March 2012 (EDT)
::::No, there's no need to ask Cook879 to delete images - they can be kept on the wiki UNTIL Saturday and put on a framegrab page until the meeting where we will decide what to do with the framegrab pages. What were you planning to do on the framegrab pages? Were you going to implement the images with the <nowiki><gallery></nowiki> extension, or what? [[User:Phinbart|Phinbart - just one of the huge Bart fans!]] 14:01, 21 March 2012 (EDT)
:::::Yeah, I'll add them to /Framegrabs pages is the idea is successful. For the first image, I had previously put {{tl|Delete}} on it as I thought it was a duplicate, but it wasn't. Anyway, they won't be deleted until further decisions are made. {{User:Randomno/sig2}} 14:08, 21 March 2012 (EDT)
::::::By the way, I've made a framegrab page for [[7G08]]. [[User:Phinbart|Phinbart - just one of the huge Bart fans!]] 14:20, 21 March 2012 (EDT)
:I saw. Not sure where #9 is though... Better go find it... {{User:Randomno/sig2}} 14:20, 21 March 2012 (EDT)
::Fixed. I accidently forgot to change number nine from 9 to 8. :| {{User:Randomno/sig2}} 14:27, 21 March 2012 (EDT)

== Prince family ==

Can you work on a family tree for the [http://simpsonswiki.net/wiki/Prince_family Prince family]? Thanks, [[User:Phinbart|Phinbart - just one of the huge Bart fans!]] 07:33, 25 March 2012 (EDT)
:Should be simple. {{:)}} {{User:Randomno/sig2}} 07:59, 25 March 2012 (EDT)
::It was extremely simple. [[User:Randomno/Family trees/Prince family|And small]]. {{User:Randomno/sig2}} 08:12, 25 March 2012 (EDT)

== Framegrabs ==

When are you going to upload more framegrabs? [http://simpsonswiki.net/wiki/Simpsons_Roasting_on_an_Open_Fire/Framegrabs] [[User:Phinbart|Phinbart - just one of the huge Bart fans!]] 12:54, 29 March 2012 (EDT)
:Soon, but I'm on the wrong computer. Might be able to do them today or tommorrow, though. {{:)}} {{User:Randomno/sig2}} 14:27, 29 March 2012 (EDT)

Can you temporarily restore this? {{User:Randomno/sig2}} 10:19, 3 March 2012 (EST)
:Thanks, do you think you might be able to adapt this? I'm not that good at masses of code that aren't self-explanetory. {{User:Randomno/sig2}} 11:07, 3 March 2012 (EST)

== New template design ==
Why do the new templates such as <nowiki>{{Incomplete}}</nowiki> underlap the infobox? [[User:Phinbart|Phinbart - just one of the huge Bart fans!]] 09:42, 4 March 2012 (EST)
:Example? [[File:SolarDragonName.png|90px|link=User:Solar Dragon]] ([[User talk:Solar Dragon|Talk]] - [[Special:Contributions/Solar Dragon|Contribs.]]) 09:42, 4 March 2012 (EST)
::[http://simpsonswiki.net/wiki/White-shirt_boy#Appearances] And I meant new template designs. [[User:Phinbart|Phinbart - just one of the huge Bart fans!]] 09:45, 4 March 2012 (EST)
:::Looks fine to me. What do you mean by "underlap"? ☆[[User:Solar Dragon|The]] [[User talk:Solar Dragon|Solar]] [[Special:Contributions/Solar Dragon|Dragon]]☆ 09:46, 4 March 2012 (EST)
::::The right side border of <nowiki>{{Incomplete}}</nowiki> is hidden under the infobox. {{Unsigned|Phinbart|09:48, 4 March 2012}}
:::::What device are you using to view Wikisimpsons? How large is your screen? I'll look into it though. [[User:Solar Dragon|The]] [[User talk:Solar Dragon|Solar]] [[Special:Contributions/Solar Dragon|Dragon]] 09:50, 4 March 2012 (EST)
::::::I'm using Google Chrome. Also, it seems the center of the page stays the same even when the infobox is there. [[User:Phinbart|Phinbart - just one of the huge Bart fans!]] 09:51, 4 March 2012 (EST)
:::::::Could you upload a screenshot of the error please? I've tried to reproduce it by zooming in but all that happens is that the template goes under the bottom of the infobox, not under the code of the infobox. [[User:Solar Dragon|The]] [[User talk:Solar Dragon|Solar]] [[Special:Contributions/Solar Dragon|Dragon]] 09:54, 4 March 2012 (EST)
::::::::View the error here: [[:File:Template_underlapping_infobox_error.PNG]]. (I was gonna upload the error image before you even replied). [[User:Phinbart|Phinbart - just one of the huge Bart fans!]] 09:55, 4 March 2012 (EST)
:::::::::Could you try changing your zoom outwards and see if that does anything please? I'm trying to make a fix for this right now anyway. ☆[[User:Solar Dragon|The Solar Dragon]] ([[User talk:Solar Dragon|Talk]] - [[Special:Contributions/Solar Dragon|Contribs.]])☆ 09:57, 4 March 2012 (EST)
::::::::::On 90% it's alright, but I use 100%. [[User:Phinbart|Phinbart - just one of the huge Bart fans!]] 10:01, 4 March 2012 (EST)
:::::::::::Check now please. Has that fixed it? [[User:Solar Dragon|The]] [[User talk:Solar Dragon|Solar]] [[Special:Contributions/Solar Dragon|Dragon]] 10:04, 4 March 2012 (EST)
::::::::::::Nope. Right border's still 'underlapped'. [[User:Phinbart|Phinbart - just one of the huge Bart fans!]] 10:09, 4 March 2012 (EST)
:::::::::::::I have no idea why this is happening then. I've not seen this before but Cook gets the same problem so I'm gonna blame Chrome :P I'll keep looking into it though. <big><big>[[User:Solar Dragon|The Solar Dragon]] ([[User talk:Solar Dragon|Talk]] - [[Special:Contributions/Solar Dragon|Contribs.]])</big></big> 10:16, 4 March 2012 (EST)
::How about putting a "|left", "|center" and "|right" on a template to help it align better. Eg. <nowiki>{{Incomplete|left}}</nowiki> would make the Incomplete template go to the left on the page. [[User:Phinbart|Phinbart - just one of the huge Bart fans!]] 10:57, 4 March 2012 (EST)
:::I tried that and Solar might have fixed it. It's definitely right now, though! [[White-shirt boy#Appearances]]. As the messagebox template's third parameter is align, I put it as <nowiki>{{{2|center}}}</nowiki>. Now, all you have to do for any template is to add that. Then, on the page you want the aligning, if on the left write "<nowiki>{{<messagebox>|2=}}</nowiki>" and for right just do 2=right. {{Unsigned|Randomno‎|02:46, 6 March 2012}}

== Next episode templates ==

[[User:Randomno|Randomno]] has created a few templates to do with upcoming episodes. Why are they needed? --[[User:Frederick|<big>Fred</big>]] ([[User talk:Frederick|Talk]]) 01:38, 5 March 2012 (EST)
:It was supposed to be automatic and change every time a new episode airs. However, they don't seem to have worked. I'll look into it later. [[User:Solar Dragon|The]] [[User talk:Solar Dragon|Solar]] [[Special:Contributions/Solar Dragon|Dragon]] 02:18, 5 March 2012 (EST)
::I don't know if you've fixed it, though I might get it working in a minute. {{User:Randomno/sig2}} 10:30, 5 March 2012 (EST)
:::Sorry, been at school. If it's still not working, I'll get round to it tonight, after the new episode stuff has been done. [[File:SolarDragonName.png|90px|link=User:Solar Dragon]] ([[User talk:Solar Dragon|Talk]] - [[Special:Contributions/Solar Dragon|Contribs.]]) 12:06, 5 March 2012 (EST)
::::They should work now, but I'm not so sure about the hour. But the main problem was the template names (I added ,2012 on to them), so if we last until next year, we won't get any date problems. {{User:Randomno/sig2}} 02:46, 6 March 2012 (EST)

==New table prob==
Not a problem as in such, but is there a way to have <nowiki>{{TRs}}</nowiki> and <nowiki>{{TCs}}</nowiki> on <nowiki>{{TableBodyTop}}</nowiki>? [[User:Phinbart|Phinbart - just one of the huge Bart fans!]] 11:02, 6 March 2012 (EST)

::Not again! [[User:Orange Ice|Orange Ice]] 14:58, 8 March 2012 (EST)

:::::Oh. That's sad. Always thought they had potential if they could find a reliable server. [[User:Orange Ice|Orange Ice]] 15:51, 8 March 2012 (EST)

:If that is the case, I would guess so via Facebook and Twitter. [[User:Solar Dragon|The]] [[User talk:Solar Dragon|Solar]] [[Special:Contributions/Solar Dragon|Dragon]] 16:09, 8 March 2012 (EST)

Seems there will be no real competitors for wikia left... Wikkii is ok, but thought that shout could have been better. [[User:Orange Ice|Orange Ice]] 11:16, 9 March 2012 (EST)

You can use Wikkii, you can actually customize everything it just takes a little longer, I am willing to help out in any way to oppose wikia. Also Solar there is another independent wiki for [http://www.that70swiki.com/wiki/Main_Page That 70's show], people are still opposing wikia, yay! [[User:Escyos|Escyos]] 21:29, 9 March 2012 (EST)

:After the disaster(s) on shoutwiki, I'm wary about using another wikifarm, as the same thing could happen to it... [[User:Orange Ice|Orange Ice]] 11:14, 10 March 2012 (EST)

Anything further... Or still the same? [[User:Orange Ice|Orange Ice]] 10:06, 12 March 2012 (EDT)

:Still the same. [[User:Solar Dragon|The]] [[User talk:Solar Dragon|Solar]] [[Special:Contributions/Solar Dragon|Dragon]] 13:29, 12 March 2012 (EDT)

What the heck happened to the server anyway? Thought this one was going to be far stabler than the old one. [[User:Orange Ice|Orange Ice]] 13:53, 14 March 2012 (EDT)

:I just got on to ShoutWiki, logged on, then nothing... {{User:Randomno/sig2}} 04:07, 16 March 2012 (EDT)

Has anything changed? Haven't heard any updates from shoutwiki in over two weeks. [[User:Orange Ice|Orange Ice]] 13:36, 18 March 2012 (EDT)

Hi all. I'm emijrp, the founder of [http://code.google.com/p/wikiteam/ WikiTeam], a project to preserve wikis from all the Internet. We are aware of these common wikifarm issues, so, we try to save all wikifarm wikis. Federico, one of our most active users, did [http://archive.org/details/shoutwiki.com a backup of ShoutWiki wikis in August, 2011]. It includes wikitext and images for all the wikis listed in that page (about 397 wikis). I hope this can help you to recover your data. You can import the .xml file to other wikifarm (Referata.com or other with Special:Import) and re-upload all the images. If you need help, subscribe to [http://groups.google.com/group/wikiteam-discuss?pli=1 our mailing list] and ask us. Regards. [[User:Emijrp|Emijrp]] 08:09, 31 March 2012 (EDT)

== ''The Simpsons'' Mug ==

Hi, Solar. ''The Simpsons'' Mug was probably worthy of an article. Keep in mind that it is after all a merchandise. --[[User:Frederick|<big>Fred</big>]] ([[User talk:Frederick|Talk]]) 02:53, 9 March 2012 (EST)
:No, I don't think individual mugs are worthy of an article. If we're going to have a mug article, it will be a list of mugs, similar to the [[The Simpsons shot glasses]].

Since we are in need of more allies, you guys should really consider affiliating with our wiki (http://www.khwiki.net/ ). I'm no admin, but KrytenKoro is. [[User:UxieLover1994|UxieLover1994]] 09:56, 13 March 2012 (EDT)
:I'll have to think about this. All of our affiliates so far are either Simpsons-related or are related to ''[[The Simpsons]]'' in some way. However, I'm pretty sure Kingdom Hearts has never been mentioned on ''The Simpsons''. This is not a definite no yet, I'll discuss it with other admins later. <big><big>[[User:Solar Dragon|The Solar Dragon]] ([[User talk:Solar Dragon|Talk]] - [[Special:Contributions/Solar Dragon|Contribs.]])</big></big> 09:58, 13 March 2012 (EDT)

==216.66.162.235==
I think I finished cleaning up after all of his latest shit. Sorry 'bout the profanity, but it really IS the most appropriate term. I blocked the IP for 2 weeks, but depending on what other IPs have been involved in the spate of vandalism, you might want to consider an IP range block on 216.66.x.x. -- [[User:Mythigator|Mythigator]] 20:29, 28 March 2012 (EDT)
:Done. We had 216.66.1x.x blocked, so he was just out of range. --[[User:Jake|Ja]][[User_talk:Jake|ke]] 21:37, 28 March 2012 (EDT)
::According to a Whois lookup, that IP belongs to an outfit called Look Communications, which has high-speed Internet service among its product offerings. They're in the Toronto area, which might shed some light on how it is that someone in their service is wreaking so much havoc at midnight UK time. Damn lucky I decided to have a look at the wiki before my g/f and I went out for dinner and a hockey game, or Heaven knows how much that jerk would have done. Anyway, because it's a Class C IP address, anything in 216.66.162.x for sure belongs to them. It's possible that they've got more than one address block allocated to them, but probably not the entire 216.66.x.x range. So if we find out more specific information about what IPs they have, and it turns out that the vandal IPs all belong to Look, it might be worth scaling back the block later on. For now, though, the larger range block is a reasonable precaution. That's my $.02 worth after some quick investigation. -- [[User:Mythigator|Mythigator]] 02:01, 29 March 2012 (EDT)
:::Thanks for spotting that Mythigator. I've tried another range block so hopefully this will work. Although I'm not 100% certain on how range blocks work, I'm gaining a better understanding of them so hopefully this one will work for sure. <big><big>[[User:Solar Dragon|The Solar Dragon]] ([[User talk:Solar Dragon|Talk]] - [[Special:Contributions/Solar Dragon|Contribs.]])</big></big> 04:05, 29 March 2012 (EDT)
::::Hey Solar, seeming you're sitting at home doing hardly anything all day, there's a nice collection of his spam on fanon. I would clear up but pressed the wrong button, and the college won't let me into internet options to allow cookies so i can log in. It's not that important due to small readership, but still. Also could you range block him there? Cheers.--[[User:Cook879|Cook879]] 07:19, 29 March 2012 (EDT)
