May I enquire why we're linked to the Simpsons Fanon wiki? I mean, sure it could possibly be a way to attract editors and sure it's a Simpsons related wiki, but it's not that "mature" of a wiki in terms of size, organization and content. Just saying.

+ | :Thanks! [[User:Doh5678|Doh5678]] 10:55, 18 December 2010 (UTC) | ||
+ | :In the USA, "laser" actually is spelled with an S rather than a Z. It's in word endings where USA English tends to default to using the Z, one example being "criticise" (UK) vs. "criticize" (USA). (But in USA English it's still "criticism" with an S. I know, we're goofy; go figure). Two others to watch out for are "license" and "defense" which in USA English end in "nse" where in UK English they would end in "nce". (However, as a hockey fan, I'm well-accustomed to seeing "defence" in print.) Anyway, if you've got any specific questions, feel free to ask; I'm fluent in USA English and reasonably conversant in UK English.

I assume the problem you're speaking of is in regards the header for the template, and how {{tl|Navbar}} is pushed below the "show" button, correct? I briefly went through the code for it and didn't find exactly what's causing that issue, though I can say with a fair amount of certainty that it's something I can fix. I have to be leaving at the moment, but I should be back online again later today and I'll see what I can make of it then. Once again, I apologize for the late reply. Cheers!

Simpsons Fanon wiki[edit]
May I enquire why we're linked to the Simpsons Fanon wiki? I mean, sure it could possibly be a way to attract editors and sure it's a Simpsons related wiki, but it's not that "mature" of a wiki in terms of size, organization and content. Just saying. Ldude893 12:33, 28 November 2010 (UTC)
- I feel that we should have a network of Simpsons wikis. I have another two planned, a Simpsons news wiki and an UnSimpsons wiki. See Blog:A Simpsons network of wikis. ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 13:33, 28 November 2010 (UTC)
Simpsons Comics characters[edit]
I was considering creating articles for Herb Barnstable and Skip Tarrington, but as far as I know they've only appeared in one comic. Should I create two articles for them, or is that overkill? Manga Maniac 12:39, 28 November 2010 (UTC)
- Each character should get its own article, even if it has appeared in one comic. Make one each. ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 13:34, 28 November 2010 (UTC)

Wikia is a sh*t hole[edit]

They talk to you like 3 year old babies even after you show them your true colors!!It's like they've been babies their whole lives and they've never delt with the world!! It's pretty sad and pathetic Wikia global blocked you. Ive known you on Wikia before. --Knightrez(Talk) 11:27, 30 November 2010 (UTC)

Do wikia edits count?[edit]
Just wondering whether wikia edits count for getting awards and stuff because I've got about 150 edits including the wikia ones. Doh5678
- There has been a glitch with edit count. Wikia edits do count. Check your preferences for the true edit count you have. ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 18:13, 3 December 2010 (UTC)
Spotlight Image[edit]
I've been wanting to do this for a while now but couldn't really be bothered. The Spotlight image got a bit pixelated when it was shrunk. I uploaded a HQ version of it in the same size (200x75). Could you replace the old image with the new one on the Forum Site and any other site that has the old spotlight image? Thanks.----Smiley12 (talk • contribs) 21:32, 3 December 2010 (UTC)

83.234.245.140[edit]
This IP was spamming as well as vandalizing. I think it warrants an immediate ban, but it's your call. -- Mythigator 19:59, 4 December 2010 (UTC)
- Well, you warned him so I will let it slide for now. Our first proper vandal attack since the move! :D ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 20:26, 4 December 2010 (UTC)
- You're in a more charitable mood than I am, then. I've been fighting off a cold for almost a week now, so I'm probably feeling a little punchy as a result. I do have to agree that a vandal atack is encouoraging in its own left-handed way. On a similar note, I've been seeing shoutwiki starting to appear in Google searches on Simpsons-related terms. -- Mythigator 22:31, 4 December 2010 (UTC)

- That attack was going incredibly well until Joey reverted everything and blocked the only account we have that still has admin powers. Wait until you see my next plan though, Simpsons Wiki will be a spam filled wiki, and Wikia Staff will destroy Simpsons Wiki upon my request.

On the rise on Google[edit]
Ah, the joy. A Simspons-related Google search where we not only beat out Wikia, but also come up #1 in the results! [1] -- Mythigator 16:03, 10 December 2010 (UTC)
- Not for me though. Wikia is top with the Lisa Simpson, This Isn't Your Life article for some reason. It changes depending on location I think. ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 16:11, 10 December 2010 (UTC)
A google search for "Simpsons wiki" has the top 3 being wikipedia (and number 3, for some reason, is O.J. Simpson), 4-6 being wikia and 7 being shoutwiki. [2]. -- Brian McClure 00:31, 11 December 2010 (UTC)
- It's #9 for me. ----Smiley12 (talk • contribs) 01:38, 11 December 2010 (UTC)
- It's #9 for me as well. First 3 are wikipedia (not surprising), 4-7 is wikia (one of them is the Michael Jackson page. weird). 8 is a domain name for sale. 9 is us. Doh5678

Yodelin' Zeke Images[edit]
The wiki refuses to render the images in the Yodelin' Zeke article. I have no idea what its problem is ... I uploaded the images and created the article earlier this morning, everything looks fine in the code, and the file names are correct, so darned if I know what Shout is on about here. The thumbnails don't display in the files for the images, either, so I think there's a glitch afoot. What do we need to do to fix it or work around it? -- 64.122.207.197 16:49, 17 December 2010 (UTC)
- Making an edit did to for me. If it hasn't for you, try resetting your cache. ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 17:09, 17 December 2010 (UTC)
- It looks fine now without doing a cache reset. Maybe it just needed the edit to give it a nudge. <<shrug>> -- Mythigator 18:09, 17 December 2010 (UTC)
English or American[edit]
Hey. Do you use the American spelling (lazer) or the British spelling (laser). Either way people will be annoyed. Doh5678 01:20, 18 December 2010 (UTC)
- Since The Simpsons is an American show, we use American spelling. ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 08:27, 18 December 2010 (UTC)
- Thanks! Doh5678 10:55, 18 December 2010 (UTC)
- In the USA, "laser" actually is spelled with an S rather than a Z. It's in word endings where USA English tends to default to using the Z, one example being "criticise" (UK) vs. "criticize" (USA). (But in USA English it's still "criticism" with an S. I know, we're goofy; go figure). Two others to watch out for are "license" and "defense" which in USA English end in "nse" where in UK English they would end in "nce". (However, as a hockey fan, I'm well-accustomed to seeing "defence" in print.) Anyway, if you've got any specific questions, feel free to ask; I'm fluent in USA English and reasonably conversant in UK English. Hope that helps! -- Mythigator 19:56, 21 December 2010 (UTC)
Fat Tony[edit]
Hi, could you please help with the Fat Tony pages? I have done what TheHomer suggested and renamed the pages. However, I am having difficulty with a few things. Could you take a look? Effluvium 12:38, 18 December 2010 (UTC)
- Done (I think) ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 12:42, 18 December 2010 (UTC)
- Yup, you did it. Thanks, Solar! Effluvium 12:44, 18 December 2010 (UTC)
Project: Episodes[edit]
Hi, is there some vote/nomination I have to go through if I am interested in becoming the new leader of Project: Episodes? The current project leader has been inactive for a while, I believe. I mainly edit the episodes on this wiki anyway. Thanks Effluvium 11:12, 19 December 2010 (UTC)
- There is a nomination process somewhere but I skipped you past this. You are the project leader. ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 12:09, 19 December 2010 (UTC)
- Thanks! Much appreciated, Solar! Effluvium 12:14, 19 December 2010 (UTC)
94.192.183.217[edit]
This guy been vandalizing and luckily he's got a block. What type of Vandalizing is he doing, just asking? Doh5678 13:18, 20 December 2010 (UTC)
- Not sure. I wasn't dealing with him. Blackadder was. ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 16:59, 21 December 2010 (UTC)
Uploading Help[edit]
Hi. Pretty soon I'm gonna be uploading an avatar. I just need a little help: Where do you get the picture? Penguin Homer 12:19, 21 December 2010 (UTC)Penguin Homer
- You either find the picture on the Internet or make one yourself... ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 17:00, 21 December 2010 (UTC)
Thanks! Oh and 1 more thing, can I just take it from a website or...I don't know. Penguin Homer 22:12, 21 December 2010 (UTC)Penguin Homer
- You can do. Just make sure it isn't against their copyrights etc. ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 22:33, 21 December 2010 (UTC)

Monaco[edit]
Yay Monaci, Wikia can SUCK IT! haha {{SUBST:User:Escyos/autosig}} 12:49, 22 December 2010 (UTC)
Great edit[edit]
Well, here it is. I don't know if it's a great edit, but I turned a stub into a good article. Did you ask this to all users? What are you planning? A contest maybe? — TheHomer (Talk • Contributions) 14:26, 22 December 2010 (UTC)
- I can't tell you that right now. All will become clear next month. Also, enjoying Monaco? ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 14:27, 22 December 2010 (UTC)
- Of course! It feels weird seeing Monaco after all that time. The space seems smaller because the sidebar is bigger than Monobook, but we'll get used to it once again. Also, the wiki is much faster! — TheHomer (Talk • Contributions) 14:36, 22 December 2010 (UTC)
Good Luck, and Goodbye[edit]
Just received your message. Thank you for what you have done today.
I am just as against Oasis as you, but I feel that I should try to work with Wikia to make it better.
However, if the staff do fuck it up again, it won't be long before Casualty returns to ShoutWiki.
Until than day, good luck, and goodbye. Eladkse 16:31, 22 December 2010 (UTC)

Christmas logo[edit]
Hello, I was wondering how you added a christmas hat on Homer's head on the logo. I need to know because were doing a christmas special at Wikicars and we want a logo with snow flakes. --Knightrez(Talk) 08:32, 23 December 2010 (UTC)
Re:AWB[edit]
Excellent, what did you do to get it to work? -- Brian McClure 20:03, 23 December 2010 (UTC)
- It's working for me now, all I needed was the right site (for some reason, entering "simpsons.shoutwiki.com/wiki" crashed it). This will make category fixing a LOT easier, thanks for the help. -- Brian McClure 20:27, 23 December 2010 (UTC)
Bot[edit]
Hi, Solar! I see your bot works now. Can it remove interlanguage links and add "File:" to all broken images in galleries or only make grammar corrections using AWB? — TheHomer (Talk • Contributions) 20:45, 23 December 2010 (UTC)
- Interwiki links should be gone now. A couple may have slipped through the net now. I am not sure if I can add file: before the galleries though. I have looked into it a bit but it seems impossible. ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 20:48, 23 December 2010 (UTC)
Wikicars wants to merge with Autopedia[edit]

Can you add my Project to the Template and the Sidebar. Thanks. Doh5678 18:55, 24 December 2010 (UTC)

RE:Help with a template[edit]
Hi Solar Dragon. Sorry it took so long for me to get back to you. I took an unexpected vacation from ShoutWiki earlier this week, so I'm just now getting your message. I assume the problem you're speaking of is in regards the header for the template, and how {{Navbar}} is pushed below the "show" button, correct? I briefly went through the code for it and didn't find exactly what's causing that issue, though I can say with a fair amount of certainty that it's something I can fix. I have to be leaving at the moment, but I should be back online again later today and I'll see what I can make of it then. Once again, I apologize for the late reply. Cheers! Supergeeky1 09:12, 25 December 2010 (UTC)
Rankings etc[edit]
Hey Solar, site looks good, especially our beloved monaco (is it wrong to hug my computer now). I was windering how did you get those ranking things and points for people profiles? If your unsure can you point me to someone or somewhere taht may have the answers? I was thinking of putting them on my Stargate Wiki too. {{SUBST:User:Escyos/autosig}} 11:44, 25 December 2010 (UTC)
Personalized signature problem[edit]
There's a problem as I cannot use my custom made signature as an official signature. A message reading "Invalid raw signature. Check HTML tags." keeps appearing when I have "Treat signature as wikitext (without an automatic link)" checked. Here is the code;
[[User:NGMan62|<span style="plainlink" title = "Select to access NGMan62's homepage."> <span style="background- color:black;padding:3px;color:yellow;-moz-border-radius-topleft:10px; -moz-border-radius-bottomleft:10px;border-top:thin solidyellow;borderbottom:thin solid yellow; border-left:thin solid yellow;border-right:thin solid yellow;font-family:Rondalo;">NGMan62</span>]] <sup>[[User talk:NGMan62|<span style="plainlink" title = "Select if you want to talk to NGMan62."> <span style="color:black;background-color:yellow;padding:2px;border-top:thin solid yellow;border-bottom:thin solid yellow; border-left:thin solid yellow;border-right:thin solid yellow;font-size:9pt;font-family:Rondalo;">Talk</span></span>]] [[Special:Contributions/NGMan62|<span style="plainlink" title = "Select to view NGMan62's contributions."> <span style="color:black;background-color:transparent;padding:2px;-moz-border-radius-topright:10px; -moz-border-radius-bottomright:10px;border-top:thin solid yellow;border-bottom:thin solid yellow;border-left:thin solid yellow; border-right:thin solid yellow;font-size:9pt;font-family:Rondalo;">Contributions</span></span>]] </sup>
It seems to be fine as it appears in its normal form when viewed anywhere. So, what's the problem?--NGMan62 20:32, 25 December 2010 (UTC)
- There should be a tick box that says something like use wiki code. Click that then save. ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 23:26, 25 December 2010 (UTC)
- Yeah, I done this. I ticked a nearby box that read "Treat signature as wikitext (without an automatic link)". It still doesn't work.--NGMan62 01:41, 26 December 2010 (UTC)
- Hmm... I haven't used that type of code that often so am not too sure about that code. Try asking a staff member like Jack Phoenix. ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 08:25, 26 December 2010 (UTC)
- Yeah, I done this. I ticked a nearby box that read "Treat signature as wikitext (without an automatic link)". It still doesn't work.--NGMan62 01:41, 26 December 2010 (UTC)
User Page and Signature Starting...[edit]
Hi. Can you tell me how to put stuff on my User Page? Like you put Favorite Characters and some videos on there... Also, like you have your "The Solar Dragon" signature in a special way, can you tell me how to do stuff with mine?
--Penguin Homer 15:29, 26 December 2010 (UTC)Penguin Homer--Penguin Homer 15:29, 26 December 2010 (UTC)
- See my signature code. You can copy parts of it and work around it. Otherwise, just tell me what you want and I will make it for you. For your user page, there should be a button called "Use Wiki User Page" or something similar to that. Just press it and edit it like a normal article. ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 15:47, 26 December 2010 (UTC)
Ok I understand the User page thing. But how do you make a signautre code? Penguin Homer 17:53, 27 December 2010 (UTC)Penguin Homer
- Signatures use wiki code.
- <span style="font-family:FONT NAME">TEXT</span> can change the font type. I use Algerian. <span style="color:COLOR NAME">TEXT</span> changes the colour. Add this into links, like my signature:
- ☆<span style="font-family:Algerian">[[User:Solar Dragon|<span style="color:green">The</span>]] [[User talk:Solar Dragon|<span style="color:red">Solar</span>]] [[Special:Contributions/Solar Dragon|<span style="color:blue">Dragon</span>]]</span>☆
- ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 19:25, 27 December 2010 (UTC)
Thank you so much! I'll practice on my page for a while... Penguin Homer 18:17, 28 December 2010 (UTC)Penguin Homer
Inactive[edit]
Today I want to thank everyone for their contributions to the success of Wikisimpsons during my time here. In extraordinarily complex and challenging times you have helped the wiki achieve success.
As long as everyone continues to contribute with the same passion as when I first started editing here, Wikisimpsons is exceptionally ready for the future and will continue to be first choice of Simpsons Fans Looking for info.
Now I want to share with you my personal plans. You will have noticed I've been editing less, therefore, effective at the end of the year, I plan to become inactive. I will, however, come back to check on things from time to time.
I enjoyed editing here very much, and enjoyed working with everyone. I would like everyone at the wiki to know how pleased I am to have had the opportunity to be an admin for the past year. Many thanks to all of you again. It has been a privilege to work with you.
Solar, The Homer Trophy images are complete and already uploaded. Project Characters may need a new leader and Someone will have to answer Project Adoption requests (not that there are any normally).
As always, my very best wishes to everyone. You know how to contact me. ----Smiley12 (talk • contribs) 05:11, 31 December 2010 (UTC)
- Oh right, and you can make a blog announcing my becoming inactive with my message in it if you want. ----Smiley12 (talk • contribs) 05:15, 31 December 2010 (UTC)
Project Characters[edit]
Who's going to take over project characters after Smiley's gone? It's either me, you Effulvium or Dohayecarumbadoh. Doh5678 16:44, 31 December 2010 (UTC)
- Sure anyone can take over it. They just need to place their request. ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 17:21, 31 December 2010 (UTC)
Transcripts[edit]
Hi, just out of general interest, is Wikisimpsons planning on adding Transcripts to it's "library of knowledge" anytime soon? I know it has been discussed in the past? Something like The Infosphere has would be cool! Also, I won't be as active once school starts back (tests and what-not) but I shall still be editing after my exams and on weekends. Effluvium 21:04, 1 January 2011 (UTC)
- I would like Transcripts to be brought onto the wiki eventually, yes. ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 21:23, 1 January 2011 (UTC)
- Yeah, I'd like Transcripts here too. It's just it'd become very "labour-intensive" on all of us to maintain them (like the Credits pages) and they'd probably get abandoned or nothing will happen with them (similar to the comics). Of course, it would be easier if there were websites we could "copy-and-paste" and then re-edit, but I don't know of any. Perhaps we should speak to the rest of the community about it, and see what they think. As I've said, someone has mentioned it in the past. Effluvium 22:03, 1 January 2011 (UTC)
Please come on IRC![edit]
Because ShoutWiki's IRC is down, on The Freenode server, go on #ClubPenguinWiki. --Will k 12:26, 3 January 2011 (UTC)
Soderz[edit]
User Soderz sent me a private board message where he requested that his page be deleted. He said he'd rather edit on W***a where people stayed. I made a couple of pitches for ShoutWiki and told him that I wasn't an admin, but I'd pass his request to one. I did not guarantee any action on his request, though. -- Mythigator 22:20, 3 January 2011 (UTC)
- Well, I'm not going to delete anything. Lets put it that way. ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 06:23, 4 January 2011 (UTC)
- That's what I figured; I just wanted to keep the promise about making his request known. No worries. -- Mythigator 07:39, 4 January 2011 (UTC)
