Forum:Demoting TheHomer

TheHomer:

Now, I hate to be the one to being this up, but [[User:TheHomer|TheHomer]] has been inactive for close to 4 months now. As much as he's a valued member of the community, at the end of the day, it is '''4 months'''. So what do you guys think about demoting him? --[[User:Will k|'''Will''']] ([[User talk:Will k|talk]]) 06:22, 28 November 2011 (EST)
:We DO NOT demote admins because they are inactive. End of discussion. ☆[[User:Solar Dragon|The Solar Dragon]] ([[User talk:Solar Dragon|Talk]] - [[Special:Contributions/Solar Dragon|Contribs.]])☆ 12:22, 28 November 2011 (EST)
::Hold on, I think Will k has a point, he has been inactive for quite a long time. But so has Ldude893 and he's still rollback. As Will k says and everyone agrees, TheHomer is a valued member of the Wikisimpsons community, but it has been a long time. I believe we should actually hear from TheHomer and keep the discussion going, it's the best way to gain consensus. At the moment I'm '''Neutral'''. [[User:Doh5678|Doh5678]] [[User talk:Doh5678|talk]] 14:37, 28 November 2011 (EST)
:::Ldude is not a rollback as he hasn't made an account here yet. Should he make an account here and request his powers back, he will regain them. I do not like the idea of removing an admin's powers because they're inactive. it goes against EVERY bone in my body. It is wrong. Therefore, if the community does decide to remove his powers, it will have to be down to Cook or Smiley to do as I will not do so. An admin should have his powers as if he does return, he could carry on from where he left off. I am 150% '''OPPOSED''' to this and will not have anything else to do with this conversation. [[User:Solar Dragon|The]] [[User talk:Solar Dragon|Solar]] [[Special:Contributions/Solar Dragon|Dragon]] 14:46, 28 November 2011 (EST)
:'''Opposed''' unless 1) You contact TH '''AND''' preferably also 2) He either agrees to the demotion or becomes active again within a reasonable time frame, which can be decided when contact with him is re-established. If TH doesn't become active again (in spite of being contacted), then a demotion would be reasonable. -- [[User:Mythigator|Mythigator]] 15:24, 28 November 2011 (EST)
:'''Opposed''' Demoting him just for being inactive doesn't seem right, as there are a lot of inactive admins and rollbacks that have been so for much longer than that, and would get their powers back if they haven't created an account on our independent wiki yet. [[User talk:Dohayecarumbadoh|Doh]][[User:Dohayecarumbadoh|ayecarumba]][[User talk:Dohayecarumbadoh|doh]] 16:55, 28 November 2011 (EST)
In one of the few occassions I visit this wiki, I discover you want to demote me. I'm really mad!... Nah, just a joke, I could never be mad at you, guys. It's true, I've been inactive for a long time, and I don't think I will edit this wiki anymore, so, if it's your desicion, demote me, there's no problem. It's a bit useless having admin powers and not using them. And it makes room for more admins, I don't know if there's any kind of admin limit or something, though. Anyway, it's alright. By the way, great skin! You did an awesome job to this wiki, guys. --[[User:TheHomer|TheHomer]] 20:08, 28 November 2011 (EST)

Hi, I've been away for the weekend, and have returned to find this place is missing all you guys. Solar has gone, Smiley has gone. Whats going on? Has everybody moved over? What about me! Haha! [[User:Effluvium|Effluvium]] 13:14, October 10, 2010 (UTC)
:Well, my mistake, there are a few editors still here. So, when are we moving over to ShoutWiki? [[User:Effluvium|Effluvium]] 13:16, October 10, 2010 (UTC)

==Update==
Hi, on another note, could you please keep me updated on whats happening with the move to ShoutWiki etc, please? Im very busy with school and other things this week and wont have much time to edit, so that would be great! Thanks! [[User:Effluvium|Effluvium]] 13:33, October 10, 2010 (UTC)
:Sure. Solar has now created the welcome template at ShoutWiki and is adding it to all talk pages there. That's the only thing I know about it for now. I don't see any pages from here at ShoutWiki, but I should ask Solar. {{User:TheHomer/sig}} 13:37, October 10, 2010 (UTC)

Hi!

I am the admin of the swedish wikisimpsons and i don't know how to take away the Recent Wiki Activity box.
Do you know how i can do it?
:You can't. Don't. Wikia will block you for going against the terms of use. I suggest moving your wiki to a new host. ☆[[User:Solar Dragon|The]] [[User talk:Solar Dragon|Solar]] [[Special:Contributions/Solar Dragon|Dragon]]☆ 10:31, October 31, 2010 (UTC)

Why did you deleted the "much better than a " line from the [[Driver of a loaner car]]? 
The line was sung by Homer and it also appears in the [http://lyrics.wikia.com/Yes:Owner_Of_A_Lonely_Heart Owner Of A Lonely Heart Lyrics]. [[User:Teyandee|Teyandee]] 20:33, 27 November 2010 (UTC)

== Links to Spanish/Portuguese versions of the page ==

Some articles (for example [[The Otto Show]]) contains the links to the Spanish/Portuguese versions of the page (like pt:Show de Otto). Should they be kept or be removed? [[User:Teyandee|Teyandee]] 10:37, 10 December 2010 (UTC)
:Removed, obviously. These were Wikia things and we don't have a Spanish or Portuguese wiki on ShoutWiki. I will ask now. ☆[[User:Solar Dragon|The]] [[User talk:Solar Dragon|Solar]] [[Special:Contributions/Solar Dragon|Dragon]]☆ 14:39, 10 December 2010 (UTC)

== Main page design ==

Hi. [[User:Solar Dragon|Solar Dragon]] directed me to you. I was wondering if you'd be able to design a main page for [[s:w:familyguy|Family Guy Wiki]]. If you can, I'm looking for the same stuff as on the main page of Wikisimpsons, but a different look and, obviously, different colors. The two main colors I'm wanting are on the wiki provided (a darker blue and a lighter blue).

I think that we should have articles about the episodes. We have them about movies so why not episodes? ☆[[User:Solar Dragon|The]] [[User talk:Solar Dragon|Solar]] [[Special:Contributions/Solar Dragon|Dragon]]☆ 19:55, 4 March 2011 (UTC)
:Wrote something on the talk page of the fourth episode. And OK. I just think they'd be very short articles, as not so much info can be included in them. {{User:TheHomer/sig}} 19:57, 4 March 2011 (UTC)
::Well, if not individual articles, maybe pool them together into list of Angry Dad episodes article or something? ☆[[User:Solar Dragon|The]] [[User talk:Solar Dragon|Solar]] [[Special:Contributions/Solar Dragon|Dragon]]☆ 19:58, 4 March 2011 (UTC)

Forum:Broadening our horizons

2011-07-24T01:07:20Z

TheHomer:

{{Forumheader/Wiki talk}}

So, for a long time now, I've been thinking that we need to broaden our horizons - in other words, expanding our database to other languages. It'd be a great way to make us even more popular, but it would also, among other things, make Wikia lose some users. So what do you think? Should we ''broaden our horizons''? '''--'''<big>[[User:Will k|'''Will K''']] ([[User talk:Will k|'''Talk''']] ~ [[Special:Contributions/Will k|'''Contribs''']])</big> 08:00, 18 July 2011 (UTC)

Well we either need to get existing ones to move from Wikia, or find users (like FatHomer) who wants to create one from scratch. Wikia have:
*A low-active German
*An active Spanish
*An active Italian
*An active Portuguese
*Inactive (with 3 articles) Bulgarian
*Inactive (with 8 articles) Danish
*Inactive (with 21 articles) Finnish
*Inactive (with 3 articles) Norwegian
*Inactive (with 199 articles) Swedish. (Note: FatHomer is making one of these from scratch)
So really our best hopes are the first four.-[[User:Cook879|Cook879]] 10:01, 18 July 2011 (UTC)

Hello. I was just surfing the net, visiting random wikis... and well... Oh, well, I saw this foreign wikis project and thought I could help building up one. I can speak Spanish ''muy bien'' and I'd be interested in writing spanish articles. The thing is that well, how many articles we have? 8600. Good. Making 8600 articles is a bit... too much. Besides, Spanish Simpsons Wikia is very active and competing with them is gonna be hard. And getting spanish users will be hard too because Wikia is first in Google. --[[User:TheHomer|TheHomer]] 21:07, 23 July 2011 (EDT)

[[Season 22]]'s season finale, "[[The Ned-Liest Catch]]", opened the [[2011 Fox Simpsons fan initiative]], in which fans will vote on the future of [[Ned Flanders]]' relationship with [[Edna Krabappel]]. The results will be revealed in Season 23's season premiere.

Some titles that were revealed during Season 22 were left over to Season 23, which are "[[Bart Stops to Smell the Roosvelts]]", "[[The Falcon and the D'ohman]]" and "[[Politically Inept, with Homer Simpson]]".

Other titles were know to be aired in Season 23 because of their production code (PABF), which are "[[The Man in the Blue Flannel Pants]]" and "[[The Ten-Per-Cent Solution]]".

Recently, Enterteinment Weekly revealed another title, "[[The Daughter Also Rises]]", in which Michael Cael will guest star as Nick, Lisa's next boyfriend, but who later turns out not to be what he seems .

{{Quote|We called ourselves the cool moms!|[[Marge Simpson]]}}

'''Moms I'd Like to Forget''' is the tenth episode of [[Season 22]].

==Synopsis==
When Bart discovers that a fifth grader has a scar identical to one Bart has, Marge tells him about a club of mothers she was in once where they set playdates for their kids; when she tries to reform the club, things turn out better for Marge than they do for Bart.

==Plot==
[[Springfield Elementary School]]'s 4th grade class is playing a [[dodgeball]] match against the 5th grade class, whose only player left is a [[5th grader]]. [[Bart]] manages to hit the 5th grader, winning the match, after which he daydreams of himself being at the [[Dodgeball Hall of Fame]], the [[New York Stock Exchange]] and [[Planet Dodgeball]]. However, when the ball falls from the air, it hits [[Milhouse]] and the 5th grader catches it, so the winners are the 5th grade. This creates tension amongst the students and teachers of 4th and 5th grade.

During a fight between Bart and the 5th grader, they discover that they have a sword-shaped scar on their fists. Neither of them know why they have the same scar, so Bart asks [[Marge]] about it. Marge tells him that she used to be in a "Mother and me" class with Bart, and that she made a group with the other moms called "[[The Cool Moms]]".

Bart discovers that on July 4, 2003, he and his friends set off loads of fireworks, causing the sword forks to fly off Comic Book Guy's sandwich, making a sword scar on his hand. Bart and Milhouse plan to frame his friends for setting off fireworks, making the group break up again, but Marge does the deed herself.

==Production==
The episode was written by Brian Kelley and directed by Chris Clements

== Reception ==
"Moms I'd Like to Forget" was viewed by an estimated 12.65 million households in its original broadcast.

Rowan Kaiser rated the episode with a C+ writing that if felt "The entire episode just seems to be hurtling towards a reset button: Of course Marge isn't going to end up with three new best friends, and of course Bart isn't going to have an entirely new crew to hang out with. The writers seem to know this, and the resolution is half-assed at best."

Martha comes to the rescue and transforms the house into the North Pole chalet Marge has always dreamed of, but when the family is noticeably absent from the perfectly trimmed holiday home, she realizes that it's Homer and the kids who make the holidays special. Meanwhile, the Simpsons get ready to sneak away for a tropical holiday vacation in Hawaii, but surprise visitors Mr. Burns and Moe's new girlfriend, Katy Perry (guest-starring as herself in a special live-action sequence) delay their getaway.

Wikisimpsons:Vote to move

2011-05-08T17:06:49Z

TheHomer:

This is the official vote to move. The discussion is [[Forum:Vote to move to independence|here]]. It is reccommended that you read the whole discussion before voting as it will give you a better idea for what you're voting for.

The vote is a simple yes or no vote. No neutral votes as that will complicate things. This is an important decision to make and should not be made lightly.

If the decision passes, a notice will be left on the wiki for a couple of weeks to say that we have moved. If the decision to move doesn't go through, nothing will change.

All users are welcome to vote, whether you are a frequent editor or just a reader. This will be a big change and should not be taken lightly.

You do not have to explain your vote, that was done in the discussion topic. Just sign under the heading.

== Support the Move (4) ==
#I, Will k, support the move to independence. --[[User:Will k|'''Will k''']] ([[User talk:Will k|'''Talk''']]) 09:44, 8 May 2011 (UTC)

#Now, I support the move. After considering everyone's reason to move, I think the wiki should be independent. {{User:TheHomer/sig}} 17:06, 8 May 2011 (UTC)

== Oppose the Move (2) ==
#For the following reasons: being part of a wikifarm with shared logins encourages more users, and thus more content -- rather than a wiki in solitude; ShoutWiki will learn from their recent mistake, and implement more safety measures; the argument concerning search results is invalid -- Wikia will always be larger than one individual wiki, and thus search results for it will be shown above a independent wiki; I feel this vote for independence has been driven by the frustration felt when the website was down, and therefore is just the spark of the moment for the majority of people; I feel that people are simply agreeing with Solar Dragon for the sake of being Little Sir Echoes. --[[User:George|George]] 10:43, 8 May 2011 (UTC)

The '''Duff Blimp''' is a blimp with the [[Duff]] beer logo on it. It could possibly be based on the real life Goodyear Blimp. The blimp is often piloted by [[Duffman]].

Duff launched a contest in which the winner could fly the Duff Blimp. [[Homer]] was the winner, but let [[Barney]] fly the blimp, who later crashed it on the [[Shop]] store.<ref>[[Lisa the Beauty Queen]]</ref>

When [[Sideshow Bob]] threatened [[Springfield]] with detonating a nuclear bomb if they didn't get rid of TV, he hid on a Duff blimp at the [[U.S. Air Force Base]]. [[Lisa]] later found him, noticing his voice was more squeaky, caused by the helium in the blimp.<ref>[[Sideshow Bob's Last Gleaming]]</ref>

[[Homer]] predicted that stars would fall from the sky before doomsday, and the blimp, with [[Duffman]], [[Krusty]], and other celebrities, fell at a stadium, so every Springfieldian thought Homer's prediction was true.<ref>[[Thank God It's Doomsday]]</ref>

The '''Bansky couch gag''' was a [[couch gag]] created by British graffiti artist and activist Bansky. It shows a group of tired and sickly workers making [[The Simpsons|Simpsons]] merchandise at a [[20th Century Fox]] studio.

== Plot ==
[[File:Fox.jpg|right|thumb|The 20th Century Fox studio as seen on the couch gag]]
After the Simpsons arrive at home, the camera cuts to a shot of them on the couch, then zooms out to show this as a picture hanging on the wall of a fictional overseas Asian animation and merchandise sweatshop. The animation color quickly becomes drab and gray, and the music becomes dramatic and similar to that of Schindler's List.

A large group of tired and sickly artists draw animation cels for The Simpsons amongst piles of human bones and toxic waste, and a female artist hands a barefoot child employee an animation cel, which he washes in a vat of biohazardous fluid.

The camera tracks down to a lower floor on the building, where small kittens are thrown into a woodchipper-type machine to provide the filling for Bart Simpson plush dolls. The toys are then placed in to a cart pulled by a panda which is driven by a man with a whip. A man shipping boxes with The Simpsons logo on the side uses the tongue from a decapitated dolphin head to fasten shut the packages. Another employee uses the horn of a sickly unicorn to smash the holes in the center of The Simpsons DVDs. The shot zooms out to reveal that sweatshop is contained within a grim version of the 20th Century Fox logo, surrounded by barbed wire, searchlights, and a watchtower. The entire scene is running on the Simpsons' TV set.

== Production ==
Banksy is credited with creating the opening titles and [[Couch gag|couch gag]] for this episode, in what amounted to the first time that an artist has been invited to storyboard the show. Executive producer [[Al Jean]] first took note of Banksy after seeing his 2010 film ''Exit Through the Gift Shop''. According to Jean, "The concept in my mind was, 'What if this graffiti artist came in and tagged our main titles?'" ''Simpsons'' casting director [[Bonnie Pietila]] was able to contact the artist through the film's producers, and asked if he would be interested in writing a main title for the show. Jean said Banksy "sent back boards for pretty much what you saw." Series creator [[Matt Groening]] gave the idea his blessing, and helped try to make the sequence as close to Banksy's original storyboards as possible. Fox's standards and practices department demanded a handful of changes, but, according to Jean, "95 percent of it is just the way he wanted."<ref name="nyt">{{Cite web|publisher=New York Times|url=http://artsbeat.blogs.nytimes.com/2010/10/11/the-simpsons-explains-its-button-pushing-banksy-opening/ |title=‘The Simpsons’ Explains Its Button-Pushing Banksy Opening|author=Itzkoff, Dave|date=October 11, 2010|accessdate=2010-10-11}}</ref>
Banksy told ''The Guardian'' that his opening sequence was influenced by ''The Simpsons'' long-running use of animation studios in Seoul, South Korea. The newspaper also reported that the creation of the sequence "is said to have been one of the most closely guarded secrets in US television – comparable to the concealment of Banksy's own identity."<ref name="guardian">{{Cite web|url=http://www.guardian.co.uk/media/2010/oct/11/banksy-the-simpsons-bart |title=Banksy takes Simpsons into sweatshop|publisher=The Guardian|date=October 11, 2010|author=Halliday, Josh|accessdate=2010-10-11}}</ref>

=== Response ===
BBC News reported that "According to [Banksy], his storyboard led to delays, disputes over broadcast standards and a threatened walk out by the animation department." However, Al Jean disputed this, saying " [The animation department] didn't walk out. Obviously they didn't. We've depicted the conditions in a fanciful light before." Commenting on hiring Banksy to create the titles, Jean joked, "This is what you get when you outsource." Although conceding to the fact that ''The Simpsons'' is largely animated in South Korea, Jean went on to state that the scenes shown in titles are "very fanciful, far-fetched. None of the things he depicts are true. That statement should be self-evident, but I will emphatically state it."<ref name="nyt" />

Colby Hall of ''Mediaite'' called the sequence "a jaw-dropping critique of global corporate licensing, worker exploitation and over-the-top dreariness of how western media companies (in this case, 20th Century Fox) takes advantage of outsourced labor in developing countries." Melissa Bell of ''The Washington Post'' felt Banksy's titles had helped revive ''The Simpsons''' "edge", but after "the jarring opening, the show went back to its regular routine of guest cameos, self-referential jokes and tangential story lines." Marlow Riley of MTV wrote "as satire, [the opening is] a bit over-the-top. What is shocking is that Fox ran Banksy's ballsy critique of outsourcing, ''The Simpsons'', and the standards and human rights conditions that people in first world nations accept. It's uncomfortable and dark, and not what's expected from the modern ''Simpsons'', which mainly consists of 'Homer hurts himself' jokes."

{{Quote|Here's the bottom line: I need an extracurricular activity, and no one else will coach you loveable losers.|[[Lisa Simpson]]}}
"'''MoneyBART'''" is the third episode of [[Season 22]].

== Synopsis ==
In an effort to broaden her extracurricular horizons, Lisa decides to manage Bart's little league team. Using statistics and probabilities, Lisa leads the team to an incredible winning streak.

== Plot ==
[[File:MoneyBART.jpg|left|thumb|Promotional picture for the episode]]
A visit by a [[Springfield Elementary]] alum-turned-Ivy-League student, [[Dahlia Brinkley]], pushes [[Lisa]] to question her own go-getter attitude and reevaluate the scope of her extracurricular activities.

The same day, [[Ned Flanders]] visits the Simpsons to tell [[Bart]] he's resigning the [[Springfield Isotots]] as a coach, since they haven't won any games in a long time. Bart goes to the [[Springfield Stadium]], where he discovers Lisa took the job as a coach for the team. She doesn't know a lot about baseball, so she goes to [[Moe's Tavern]] to seek for advices. [[Professor Frink]], [[Doug (nerd)|Doug]], [[Benjamin]], [[Gary]] and [[Bill James (character)|Bill James]] (on a video) tell Lisa about sabermatics, which are very useful for her to help the team to win.

Lisa uses probabilities and statistics to coach her team. Using those methods, she quickly takes the team to a winning streak. However, Bart is not very happy with Lisa because she's taking all of the fun out of the game. Lisa tells Bart not to hit the ball because the pitcher will fail. Bart doesn't listen to her and makes a home run that makes them win the game. Despite this, Lisa throws Bart out of the team because of insubordination.

This casues tension at the Simpson family. [[Homer]] is with Lisa, thinking she has to do what is good for the team. [[Marge]] is with Bart, thinking Lisa should reconsider that the family comes first. The team makes it to [[Capital City]], but Bart goes with Marge to a rollercoaster instead of watching the game. While on the rollercoaster, [[Mike Scioscia (character)|Mike Scioscia]] appears behind them and tells Bart that he should always listen to his coache's advices, and that that was what took him to victory. When the ride finishes, Bart goes to the game. The team is down 11-10, so Bart puts aside his differences with Lisa and offers to pinch-run from first base, then ignores her signs and steals both second and third. Lisa says that odds are vastly against him. However, she decides not to base her game on numbers and cheers Bart. The Isotots lose the game, but the team cheers Bart and Lisa for resolving their differences.

== Production ==
This marks the second appearance of Mike Scioscia on The Simpsons. The first was "[[Homer at the Bat]]" in 1992, which is referenced in the episode when Mike mentions his [[Springfield Nuclear Power Plant softball team#"Nine separate misfortunes"|radiation poisoning]].

== Reception ==
AOL said: "In the end, the episode was really good at the beginning and the ending, but the middle kind of dragged." The A.V. Club compared the episode to "[[Lisa on Ice]]" although they didn't like Mike Scioscia's cameo calling it "awkward". The episode was given a A-, the best grade of the night.

{{Quote|Here's the bottom line: I need an extracurricular activity, and no one else will coach you loveable losers.|[[Lisa Simpson]]}}
"'''MoneyBART'''" is the third episode of [[Season 22]].

== Synopsis ==
In an effort to broaden her extracurricular horizons, Lisa decides to manage Bart's little league team. Using statistics and probabilities, Lisa leads the team to an incredible winning streak.

== Plot ==
A visit by a [[Springfield Elementary]] alum-turned-Ivy-League student, [[Dahlia Brinkley]], pushes [[Lisa]] to question her own go-getter attitude and reevaluate the scope of her extracurricular activities.

The same day, [[Ned Flanders]] visits the Simpsons to tell [[Bart]] he's resigning the [[Springfield Isotots]] as a coach, since they haven't won any games in a long time. Bart goes to the [[Springfield Stadium]], where he discovers Lisa took the job as a coach for the team. She doesn't know a lot about baseball, so she goes to [[Moe's Tavern]] to seek for advices. [[Professor Frink]], [[Doug (nerd)|Doug]], [[Benjamin]], [[Gary]] and [[Bill James (character)|Bill James]] (on a video) tell Lisa about sabermatics, which are very useful for her to help the team to win.

Lisa uses probabilities and statistics to coach her team. Using those methods, she quickly takes the team to a winning streak. However, Bart is not very happy with Lisa because she's taking all of the fun out of the game. Lisa tells Bart not to hit the ball because the pitcher will fail. Bart doesn't listen to her and makes a home run that makes them win the game. Despite this, Lisa throws Bart out of the team because of insubordination.

This casues tension at the Simpson family. [[Homer]] is with Lisa, thinking she has to do what is good for the team. [[Marge]] is with Bart, thinking Lisa should reconsider that the family comes first. The team makes it to [[Capital City]], but Bart goes with Marge to a rollercoaster instead of watching the game. While on the rollercoaster, [[Mike Scioscia (character)|Mike Scioscia]] appears behind them and tells Bart that he should always listen to his coache's advices, and that that was what took him to victory. When the ride finishes, Bart goes to the game. The team is down 11-10, so Bart puts aside his differences with Lisa and offers to pinch-run from first base, then ignores her signs and steals both second and third. Lisa says that odds are vastly against him. However, she decides not to base her game on numbers and cheers Bart. The Isotots lose the game, but the team cheers Bart and Lisa for resolving their differences.

== Production ==
This marks the second appearance of Mike Scioscia on The Simpsons. The first was "[[Homer at the Bat]]" in 1992, which is referenced in the episode when Mike mentions his [[Springfield Nuclear Power Plant softball team#"Nine separate misfortunes"|radiation poisoning]].

=== Opening Sequence ===
{{Main|Bansky couch gag|Opening Sequence#Other versions}}
The opening sequence for this episode, created by British graffiti artist and political activist Bansky, is slightly changed in the beginning, with two "Bansky" graffities on the billboard and the school.

The couch gag was also created by Bansky. It was elongated significantly, showing the process of animation at an Asian animating studio, where several tired and sickly workers draw animation cels of ''The Simpsons'' and make DVD's, dolls and several Simpsons merchandise. At the end, the camera zooms out to show the [[20th Century Fox]] studio.

==== Creation ====
Banksy is credited with creating the opening titles and [[Couch gag|couch gag]] for this episode, in what amounted to the first time that an artist has been invited to storyboard the show. Executive producer [[Al Jean]] first took note of Banksy after seeing his 2010 film ''Exit Through the Gift Shop''. According to Jean, "The concept in my mind was, 'What if this graffiti artist came in and tagged our main titles?'" ''Simpsons'' casting director [[Bonnie Pietila]] was able to contact the artist through the film's producers, and asked if he would be interested in writing a main title for the show. Jean said Banksy "sent back boards for pretty much what you saw." Series creator [[Matt Groening]] gave the idea his blessing, and helped try to make the sequence as close to Banksy's original storyboards as possible. Fox's standards and practices department demanded a handful of changes, but, according to Jean, "95 percent of it is just the way he wanted."<ref name="nyt">{{Cite web|publisher=New York Times|url=http://artsbeat.blogs.nytimes.com/2010/10/11/the-simpsons-explains-its-button-pushing-banksy-opening/ |title=‘The Simpsons’ Explains Its Button-Pushing Banksy Opening|author=Itzkoff, Dave|date=October 11, 2010|accessdate=2010-10-11}}</ref>

Banksy told ''The Guardian'' that his opening sequence was influenced by ''The Simpsons'' long-running use of animation studios in Seoul, South Korea. The newspaper also reported that the creation of the sequence "is said to have been one of the most closely guarded secrets in US television – comparable to the concealment of Banksy's own identity."<ref name="guardian">{{Cite web|url=http://www.guardian.co.uk/media/2010/oct/11/banksy-the-simpsons-bart |title=Banksy takes Simpsons into sweatshop|publisher=The Guardian|date=October 11, 2010|author=Halliday, Josh|accessdate=2010-10-11}}</ref>

==== Response ====
BBC News reported that "According to [Banksy], his storyboard led to delays, disputes over broadcast standards and a threatened walk out by the animation department." However, Al Jean disputed this, saying " [The animation department] didn't walk out. Obviously they didn't. We've depicted the conditions in a fanciful light before." Commenting on hiring Banksy to create the titles, Jean joked, "This is what you get when you outsource." Although conceding to the fact that ''The Simpsons'' is largely animated in South Korea, Jean went on to state that the scenes shown in titles are "very fanciful, far-fetched. None of the things he depicts are true. That statement should be self-evident, but I will emphatically state it."<ref name="nyt">

Colby Hall of ''Mediaite'' called the sequence "a jaw-dropping critique of global corporate licensing, worker exploitation and over-the-top dreariness of how western media companies (in this case, 20th Century Fox) takes advantage of outsourced labor in developing countries." Melissa Bell of ''The Washington Post'' felt Banksy's titles had helped revive ''The Simpsons''' "edge", but after "the jarring opening, the show went back to its regular routine of guest cameos, self-referential jokes and tangential story lines."

The first was "[[Homer at the Bat]]" in 1992, which is referenced in the episode when Mike mentions his [[Springfield Nuclear Power Plant softball team#"Nine separate misfortunes"|radiation poisoning]].

=== Opening Sequence ===
Approximately the first half minute of the [[opening sequence]] remains the same, with a few oddities. After the Simpsons arrive at home, the camera cuts to a shot of them on the couch, then zooms out to show this as a picture hanging on the wall of a fictional overseas Asian animation and merchandise sweatshop. The animation color quickly becomes drab and gray, and the music becomes dramatic and similar to that of ''Schindler's List''.

A large group of tired and sickly artists draw animation cels for ''The Simpsons'' amongst piles of human bones and toxic waste, and a female artist hands a barefoot child employee an animation cel, which he washes in a vat of biohazardous fluid.

The camera tracks down to a lower floor on the building, where small kittens are thrown into a woodchipper-type machine to provide the filling for [[Bart Simpson]] plush dolls. The toys are then placed in to a cart pulled by a panda which is driven by a man with a whip. A man shipping boxes with ''The Simpsons'' logo on the side uses the tongue from a decapitated dolphin head to fasten shut the packages. Another employee uses the horn of a sickly unicorn to smash the holes in the center of ''The Simpsons'' DVDs. The shot zooms out to reveal that sweatshop is contained within a grim version of the [[20th Century Fox]] logo, surrounded by barbed wire, searchlights, and a watchtower. The entire scene is running on the Simpsons' TV set.

British graffiti artist and political activist Banksy is credited with creating the opening titles and [[Couch gag|couch gag]] for this episode, in what amounted to the first time that an artist has been invited to storyboard the show.

* [[Fat Tony (latest)|Fat Tony]] says "That`s why I keep my friends close". When [[Homer]] ask him "and your enemies closer?" he is referring to the phrase from {{W|The Godfather Part II|The Godfather Part II}} ("Keep your friends close, but your enemies closer").
*The line Homer says, "Now I'm just an average snook like everyone else" and the episode's closing sequence is a reference to the film ''{{W|Goodfellas}}''.

==Trivia==
*There have been other canon episodes where something happens to a major character, but the consequences are dealt with by the end of the episode and everything goes back to normal:
**"[[The Principal and the Pauper]]" -- [[Principal Skinner]]'s true identity is revealed, but the "real" Skinner is run out of town by the end of the episode, restoring the status quo.
**"[[I, D'oh-Bot]]" -- [[Snowball II]] dies, followed in quick succession by two more Simpson family cats ([[Snowball III]] and [[Coltrane]]). Lisa then gets a cat that looks exactly like Snowball II, names it Snowball II (even though it's technically [[Snowball V]]) and decides to pretend the whole thing never happened.

'''Dregs''' is a café located in [[Sprooklyn]].

Dregs' trademark is that it allows people off the street to come in and play music on the stage. [[Kurt Hardwick]] and [[Ethan]] played here, which [[Lisa]] enjoyed. [[Moe]] also came here playing "a very dark song", as he said.

Dregs is very run-down, as is most of the district of Sprooklyn.

==Trivia==
*According to some the shop name "Dregs" is may be a reference to and pun on the UK bakery chain {{w|Greggs}}.

"'''Loan-a Lisa'''" is the second episode of [[Season 22]].

== Synopsis ==
When [[Grampa]] gives each member of the family a portion of his savings, [[Lisa]] invests in [[Nelson]]'s brand-new business venture, but soon realizes that her friend's instant success might lure him away from the classroom. Worried that his judgment might be clouded, Lisa introduces Nelson to [[Facebook]] creator [[Mark Zuckerberg (character)|Mark Zuckerberg]], only to find out that he too dropped out of school. But when Nelson's business suddenly takes a sharp turn, Lisa teaches her friend that education is invaluable.

== Plot ==
After watching an episode of [[The Itchy & Scratchy Show|Itchy and Scratchy]], the Simpsons arrive at the [[Springfield Retirement Castle]] to see [[Grampa]]. Grampa decides to give everyone their inheritance before he dies, which turns out to only be $50 each. Each member of the family spends their differently. [[Marge]] buys a handbag that she thinks is for $50 but it turns out to be for $500 and the label was just bent. [[Helen Lovejoy]] and [[Bernice Hibbert]] goad her into buying it and she does.

When she reveals the price to [[Homer]], he is shocked. He does, however, take Marge out to a fancy restaurant, [[Asia de Cuba]]. After the waitress sees Marge's handbag, she moves them from a bad table by the toilets to a window table with a great view of [[Springfield]]. After avoiding many hazards that could get her bag dirty, a single drop of sauce gets on it. Marge takes back the bag and gets a full refund, despite the dirt. This gives Homer an idea. They buy expensive things, use them, and return them.

Meanwhile, [[Lisa]] is looking on the Internet for where to invest her $50. She sees a website about micro transactions, with [[Muhammad Yunus (character)|Muhammad Yunus]] doing a speech about it, and she finds that [[Nelson]] has a business, [[Snot Wheels]], in which Lisa invests in. After this investment, the business picks up and Nelson ends up making loads. Nelson reveals he want to leave school and when Lisa tells [[Principal Skinner]] that Nelson is paying $11 per hour, he goes to work for Nelson.

Homer invites [[Lenny]] and [[Carl]] around to have a party, although everything is boxed up or unusable due to the fact they want to return it. When they do return everything, Homer gets caught by [[Chris Hansen (character)|Chris Hansen]] and is filmed for his TV show, ''[[To Catch a Credit Whore]]'' and Homer runs away.

Lisa takes [[Nelson]] to a entrepreneurs expo in the hopes that one of them will inspire him to stay in school. Unfortunately the first one they meet [[Mark Zuckerberg (character)|Mark Zuckerberg]], the co-founder of [[Facebook]] who reveals that he, [[Bill Gates]] and [[Richard Branson]] all left school and became successful, by stark contrast the janitor at the convention not only attended Harvard but graduateded with honers, this totally destroyed Lisas argument. This convinces Nelson to leave school even more. However, his bike business fails when all bikes fell apart as he was using water soluble glue and he goes out of business and decides to stay at school.

Lisa and Nelson go to a roller-skating rink and hold hands "as support" and knock people over, including Mark Zuckerberg.

== Production ==
The episode was written by Valentina L. Garza and directed by Matthew Faughnan. Mark Zuckerberg guest stars. The episode was broadcast two days after the theatrical release of ''The Social Network'', a film based on Zuckerberg's founding of Facebook.

== Reception ==
Rowan Kaiser called the episode "amazing" and said "spending time with The Simpsons tends to make me happy, and nothing about this episode was particularly terrible". He gave the episode a B- the second highest rated grade after American Dads, "100 A.D." and beating The Cleveland Show episode "Cleveland Live!" and the Family Guy episode, "Excellence in Broadcasting". TV Squad's Brad Tachek gave the episode a positive review as well saying "Tonight's episode wasn't quite as good as last week and just about as preachy, but it was still a good example of what makes 'The Simpsons' great."

{{Quote|Poor Tony. He didn't deserve this. He was just a solider in a war he started.|[[Homer Simpson]]}}

"'''Donnie Fatso'''" is the ninth episode of [[Season 22]].

== Synopsis ==
[[Homer]] spends time in the [[Springfield Penitentiary]] after getting caught bribing an official. A [[FBI agent]] (guest voice Hamm) offers to reduce his jail time if Homer agrees to go undercover as an informant to investigate [[Fat Tony]] (guest voice Mantegna). When Homer forges a special bond with Fat Tony and his family, he becomes conflicted between his obligation to the government and his loyalty to his new family. After an unexpected turn of events, Fat Tony’s cousin [[Fit Tony]] (Mantegna) seeks to settle a score with Homer, but winds up teaching him an important lesson.

== Plot ==
[[File:Fat Tony and Homer.png|left|thumb|Fat Tony and Homer, disguised as Nicky Bluepants Altosaxophony]]
On New Year's Day, Homer recycles his bottles and paper together, which is now a $50 fine. He then accidentally breaks lots of other laws until he hits $1000. After going to [[Moe's]], [[Moe]] tells Homer that he should go to window 9 at the court and leave a $100 bribe there to get all his crimes removed. He is caught and ends up in Springfield Penitentiary prison.

Homer is then offered an alternative by a [[FBI]] [[FBI agent|agent]] who plans to get Homer into Fat Tony's gang. He gives him a [[Gadget wig|wig]] with a camera and microphone in and changes Homer's name to [[Nicky Bluepants Altosaxophony]]. Homer takes out the agent in prison, as he is dressed as a guard, to gain [[Louie]]'s trust. Fat Tony finds out about this and Homer's apparent beating and breaks him out as the prison was built by the mafia.

After showing that he feels, Fat Tony believes that Nicky is like him. He then asks Homer to burn down Moe's, which Moe does anyway. Homer is then welcomed into the [[Springfield Mafia|mafia]].

They then go to a dock to collect guns from Belgium. However, the FBI are still listening in and Homer tells Fat Tony to leave. Before he does, he realises that Homer is a spy and has a heart attack as a result, and dies. Homer is upset after this.

Homer is later kidnapped by Fit Tony, Fat Tony's cousin. After realising that Fat Tony's memories lived on in Homer, he doesn't kill him and lets him go. Fit Tony then takes over the Springfield Mafia and becomes fat and eventually known as Fat Tony.

==Production==
Jon Hamm guest starred. Hamm said appearing on the show was "an incredible experience, I got to work on ''The Simpsons'', which I watched for 20 years and the show is still fresh and still funny and the characters still resonate. It’s one of the best shows on television. It was an honor to be asked to be a part of it." Joe Mantegna returned to the show to voice Fat Tony, who dies in this episode.

==Reception==
The episode earned mixed reviews from critics. Many said the storyline felt as if it had already been done as well as a lack of comedy.

Darren Franich called Fat Tony's death the 9th "Best TV Character Death of 2010" writing that "give the writers some credit for doing something different: In the middle of an otherwise straightforward mob-themed episode, they actually went ahead and killed off Fat Tony, a character who was first introduced almost twenty years ago."<ref name="ew">{{cite web |url=http://popwatch.ew.com/2010/12/21/best-tv-character-deaths-2010/#more-116552 |title=The Best TV Character Deaths of 2010 |author=Franich, Darren |date=December 21, 2010 |work=''Entertainment Weekly'' |accessdate=2010-12-21 }}</ref> However, he later went on to criticize the addition of Fit Tony.<ref name="ew"/>

Forum:Vote to move to independence

2011-05-02T22:23:29Z

TheHomer: /* Neutral */

{{Forumheader|Wiki talk}}

After the disaster of the problems with ShoutWiki, I know many of you want to move away elsewhere, mainly to independence. We will not be moving to another host for sure so it's ShoutWiki or independence. I am writing a list of positives and negatives towards ShoutWiki and Independence.

== ShoutWiki ==
=== Positives ===
*Lots of staff members.
*Staff are very helpful.
*A range of wikis that all are connected due to being a host site.

=== Negatives ===
*Many wikis will be moving away, thus lowering ShoutWiki's Google ranking due to less pages.
*Simpsons Fanon is still broken.

=== Neutral Points ===
*ShoutWiki will probably not make the same mistakes twice. They will be putting forward many things to stop this from happening again.
*They are also making a tool for bureaucrats to make their own database dumps, meaning we won't lose as much next time if this does happen.

== Independence ==
=== Positives ===
*We get our own domain name (probably simpsonswiki.net)
*Admins get our own email addresses (username@simpsonswiki.net)
*Google Analytics for advanced stat tracking.
*Our forum will also be moved to its own subdomain.
*Hosted by a member of NIWA may mean more members, etc.
**Many users also prefer independent wikis, as seen when SmashWiki moved from Wikia and gained a lot of new users.
*We will most probably get Vector (I will need to double check this).

=== Negatives ===
*Not as well linked, since we are not hosted, there will be no host linking to us.

== Discussion ==
I have two questions: Would moving to an independent site cost anything, and who's to say that we won't have database problems if we move? -- [[User:Brian McClure|Brian McClure]] 07:28, 2 May 2011 (MSD)
:No. The person who came to me, Jake, is willing to pay all costs towards the wiki. And no one is promising that we won't have any problems there either. We could have problems any where we go. ☆[[User:Solar Dragon|The]] [[User talk:Solar Dragon|Solar]] [[Special:Contributions/Solar Dragon|Dragon]]☆ 13:06, 2 May 2011 (MSD)
::Got this from him:

::"Since we last spoke, Nookipedia has moved over to its own virtual private server with considerable improvements in performance and MySQL stability. Because it's literally the only site hosted on that server, all of the server resources would be shared between Wikisimpsons and Nookipedia. Obviously I can't guarantee 100% uptime, but we haven't had a single problem since the move."
::☆[[User:Solar Dragon|The]] [[User talk:Solar Dragon|Solar]] [[Special:Contributions/Solar Dragon|Dragon]]☆ 01:21, 3 May 2011 (MSD)

== Vote ==
The number of votes won't be everything. The strength of the argument will decide the move.
=== Support ===
# I support for the benefits of moving to independence. I have no problem with ShoutWiki - I'm moving a wiki here - although we have a good opportunity which should benefit us. There is something about an independent wiki which is much more appealing. The domains (especially for the forums) are a lot more convenient. I think we should take advantage of this opportunity. --[[User:Cook879|Cook879]] 01:23, 2 May 2011 (MSD)
# I support your move, I moved my wiki to independent and its so much better, if theres a problem you can actually see whats wrong and fix it instead of waiting two weeks before a staff members posts a vague blog on whats going on. Certain things have to be learnt to do (such as mediawiki extensions etc) but there is heaps of info on how to do all that. [[User:Escyos|Escyos]] 07:02, 2 May 2011 (MSD)
::If you know how to contact staff (IRC is usually best) then they can fix problems pretty quickly. The crash was pretty bad but now that ShoutWiki is back up, once speeds are back to normal, ShoutWiki will be business as usual. Sure, independence is great if you know what you're doing. We will, however, have someone who does know what he's doing looking after us if we do move. We're being hosted by someone else, the same person who hosts Animal Crossing Wiki on NIWA. ☆[[User:Solar Dragon|The]] [[User talk:Solar Dragon|Solar]] [[Special:Contributions/Solar Dragon|Dragon]]☆ 14:44, 2 May 2011 (MSD)

=== Neutral ===
#ShoutWiki has been very good to us. They are a great host and have the potential to be better than Wikia (I really believe that). They need good wikis to help them achieve this goal. However, I have to think about the wiki. I feel that Wikisimpsons will gain a lot if we move. The positives show that. I am at a total loss right now. I don't know whether I want to follow my heart and stay with ShoutWiki or follow my head and move to independence. I need the rest of the community to sway my view to one side and I will possibly be making a final decision based on the feedback. The number of votes won't count. ☆[[User:Solar Dragon|The]] [[User talk:Solar Dragon|Solar]] [[Special:Contributions/Solar Dragon|Dragon]]☆ 22:02, 1 May 2011 (MSD)
#'''Supporty-Neutral''' SW is a very good host who have lots of potential. They have good tech. staff and are a lot better than most wiki farms I know, especially that one that should not be named. However Wikisimpsons will gain from moving, such as more users and higher rankings. I really hope that Shout Wiki doesn't go down, but I'm afraid we cannot afford another outage like last time. [[User:Doh5678|'''Doh''']][[User talk:Doh5678|'''5678''']] 23:35, 1 May 2011 (MSD)
#I don't really know. ShoutWiki is a very good host (if you forget about the crash that has just finished anyway). I've always liked the idea of moving to our own domain, but nobody will probably find us. It's very difficult for an independent wiki to be found if there are no wikis that link to it. Of course, we could look for affiliates, but it would still be hard for people to find us. ShoutWiki is good now, every page is back, nothing wrong at the moment. I think we shouldn't move. But because of the positive stuff about moving, I don't really know what to do. {{User:TheHomer/sig}} 01:41, 2 May 2011 (MSD)
##So we would have a new customized skin if me move? Well, that's another positive. But ShoutWiki has been very good to us. Please guys, this would be our third move. Every move for any wiki means problems (incorrectly moved images, extensions that would have to be removed because they wouldn't work). Besides, we will wait for the move to be complete, and we shouldn't lose any more time. We should start writing articles and go on improving the wiki already. Everything back to normal. {{User:TheHomer/sig}} 02:23, 3 May 2011 (MSD)

:::There is another Simpsons Wiki at Wikia and one here. If you move, that creates three Simpson wikis. Then it becomes ridiculous because all three wikis are actually the same. The visitor will say: "Should I go to Simpsons Wiki, Wikisimpsons, or ShoutWiki Simpsons?". I also don't recommend it because despite the fact that staff has cost us over 5 weeks of editing, they still offer us useful features along with the new Vector skin they released and of course, great customer support. If this breakdown happens again, then I would recommend moving then. --[[User:Silver Knight|Silver Knight]] 13:41, 2 May 2011 (MSD)

::::There are several counter-arguments to that. First point: ShoutWiki staff will close down the wiki at request. They are not Wikia. Also, if we were to move, I would look into making our own custom skin, not Monobook, Monaco or Vector. It would be totally unique. There are many extentions out there which we can install. Many features as you would call them. ☆[[User:Solar Dragon|The]] [[User talk:Solar Dragon|Solar]] [[Special:Contributions/Solar Dragon|Dragon]]☆ 13:46, 2 May 2011 (MSD)

:::::Well, I'm not moving Autopedia and I really like Wikisimpsons here. It would be a shame for see you move. :( --[[User:Silver Knight|'''Silv''''''er''''''Knight'']] 16:21, 2 May 2011 (MSD)

Is it each week or each month? {{User:TheHomer/sig}} 20:41, 7 March 2011 (UTC)
:It was supposed to be each week but with a lack of support for the project, I am thinking of closing it down. ☆[[User:Solar Dragon|The]] [[User talk:Solar Dragon|Solar]] [[Special:Contributions/Solar Dragon|Dragon]]☆ 20:42, 7 March 2011 (UTC)
::Closing it down? Perhaps by changing the week's/month's project to an episode that needs a lot more work, people would focus more on it. I would. I didn't do any work on the current episode because I couldn't think on any new articles about it and its characters, and I saw it doesn't need so much work. {{User:TheHomer/sig}} 20:46, 7 March 2011 (UTC)
