Hi, I'm Loco87. Please leave a message below.
If I left you a message on your talk page, please reply there as I like to keep a conversation in one place.

Main page

Hi, any chance you can update the main page at some point in the next couple of days? Thanks, The Solar Dragon 11:01, February 1, 2015 (EST)

Done! Thanks for reminding me! / Loco87 ^{(TALK / Contribs)} 12:58, February 1, 2015 (EST)

W B&T Images

Hi, could you grab images of the coffee cup ripples and Albert roaring, and the website Marge was using, scrappedout.com please? Thanks, The Solar Dragon 14:17, February 9, 2015 (EST)

Oh, also the other Springfield Shopper that Marge was spinning for Homer. If you could get that too, that would be great. The Solar Dragon 15:18, February 9, 2015 (EST)

Ok, I'm doing in some minutes but right now I have to go. Back in some minutes! / Loco87 ^{(TALK / Contribs)} 15:34, February 9, 2015 (EST)

And... Here they are, as I promised: Coffee Ripples • Albert Roaring • Scrappedout.com • :File:Scrappedout.com2.png|Another one from Scrappedout.com • Springfield Shopper "Blimp Disaster" / Loco87 ^{(TALK / Contribs)} 16:56, February 9, 2015 (EST)

File:Power Plant chain of command.jpg

Hi, is it possible for you to upload a higher quality version of File:Power Plant chain of command.jpg too, since you did other images from the episode? Thanks, The Solar Dragon 08:01, February 12, 2015 (EST)

Done! / Loco87 ^{(TALK / Contribs)} 08:48, February 12, 2015 (EST)

Question

Hi, why did you change the image on this? http://simpsonswiki.com/wiki/File:22_Short_Films_About_Springfield_maggie.png What was wrong with the old image? Burger52505 (talk) 22:31, February 14, 2015 (EST)

I just uploaded a better quality version with its native ratio. Some images from the DVD's can have low quality if they are too big. However, some large-sized images may not have low quality. Hope that answered your question. / Loco87 ^{(TALK / Contribs)} 09:27, February 15, 2015 (EST)

Tapped Out character collection images

Hi, is it possible for you to clean up a few of the images I stitched together here and make a new image for "More Costumes" and update the "Costumes" image. Fruit-Bat-Man needs to be removed as he's in Vigilantes now. Fit Milhouse, Cool Lisa and Mayan Marge need to be moved to More Costumes and the other costumes from More Costumes need to be added. Thanks, The Solar Dragon 10:08, February 25, 2015 (EST)

I will work through it in a couple of days. / Loco87 ^{(TALK / Contribs)} 10:12, February 27, 2015 (EST)

Replacing Grabpics

Hi Loco, I think enough time has passed for grabpics to be replaced. I'm going to add a category called "Grabpics" to any I find and they all need to be replaced with screenshots eventually. Could you help with this task please? Thanks, The Solar Dragon 08:38, March 14, 2015 (EDT)

Of course I'll help with this. It will take some months to replace them all(with decent quality versions of episode screenshots). / Loco87 ^{(TALK / Contribs)} 18:51, March 14, 2015 (EDT)

Reverts

Hi, why are you reverting back the pictures? aren't they better than screenshots? LetsPlayNintendoITA (talk) 11:46, April 7, 2015 (EDT)

Those images are supposed to be screenshots. If you want, you could replace the screenshots with the unlock images in the Content Updates' pages. To be clear, change the image of the screenshot with another image (the unlock images); but do not re-upload unlock-image versions of the screenshots. The screenshots are, by the way, supposed to be in the Tapped Out Appearances page and the character collection's ones. / Loco87 ^{(TALK / Contribs)} 13:24, April 7, 2015 (EDT)

oh man hadn't thought about that sorry! will do! LetsPlayNintendoITA (talk) 13:45, April 7, 2015 (EDT)

Site not safe?

hey, firefox says that the site is not safe and to add an exception to access it. do you know what's going on? LetsPlayNintendoITA (talk) 20:39, April 11, 2015 (EDT)

Images on tables spawning over 2 rows?

hey loco i can't find how to have images in 2 rows in a table i mean like this but with the Image on the left on 2 rows

yes thank you and sorry for not signing forgot about that xD LetsPlayNintendoITA (talk) 15:33, April 18, 2015 (EDT)

Leo Hanchman

Guess why I was the one editing. Yeah he doesn't know how to use the wiki. LetsPlayNintendoITA (talk) 07:58, April 25, 2015 (EDT)

I have suspected that for some time. Thanks for telling, although it could be considered something against the policies. See the Multiple Accounts policy. I don't think it breaks the policy at all. If he doesn't know how to use the wiki, you know each other and you trust enough each other. Anyway, I'd suggest reading the policy page, so you are prevented for the future. In other words, read it so if in the future you're about to do something with Teo's account or so that could break the policy, you'll be aware of it! Also, you could try to teach him the basic things about the wiki, so you won't have to use his account! Check The Main "Help Page" in the Wiki! / Loco87 ^{(TALK / Contribs)} 08:50, April 25, 2015 (EDT)

uh no you misinterpreted. What i meant is he was sourcing me images with his site and i created the pages etc. what i meant by I am doing the edits is I do the pages. He is only a source. I am not using his account at all. Why would I need to use his account when with mine I can do any edits (or almost) LetsPlayNintendoITA (talk) 08:57, April 25, 2015 (EDT)

Wow, what a misunderstanding. Then, forget about the message above. Thanks for telling me about my misinterpretation! I've said I suspected it but I actually meant that I suspected it only with the images (he reuploaded a TSTO icon image with a white outline (which is something you usually do) so I thought you might have been uploading them with his account. Obviously, I've known that you and Leo also edit to his website(I think it's his site), so I thought it could be due to that. That's why I then ruled out that you were using his account. But when you've left that message today I first thought «I was thinking right». I have to admit I've misunderstood your message! Thanks for explaining! Also, instead of the Help pages, you should tell him to take a look at the Wiki's Policies Happy editing! / Loco87 ^{(TALK / Contribs)} 09:47, April 25, 2015 (EDT)

Ok thanks. The outline thing is to give a look like the others (they all have outline due to the sidebar images, the ones from the taskbook, and they look better imho, but i left maggie like that waiting for EA to release her. that was a big teaser making her speach for the first time in this update! LetsPlayNintendoITA (talk) 09:51, April 25, 2015 (EDT)

PLAGIARISM

http://simpsons.wikia.com/wiki/Joseph_Stalin This page was stolen ,word for word from here. By this user http://simpsons.wikia.com/wiki/User:RightFielder -Thanks —Preceding unsigned comment added by Bartsbabybrother (talk • contribs) 21:57, May 3, 2015 (EDT)

Thanks for telling. I've just told them about it. / Loco87 ^{(Talk / Contribs)} 08:55, May 4, 2015 (EDT)

A couple of images

Could you upload the title screen for "The kids Are All Fight" (the Iron Man parody) and the scene of Milhouse holding the whatever it was that was supposed to be in the shape of Pokemon, not Disney characters from "Let's Go Fly a Coot" (and tell me what it was as well because I forgot... lol)? I can't load any videos because of my crap Internet. Thanks, The Solar Dragon 13:59, May 8, 2015 (EDT)

Here there are the images you've told me:1-File:TKAAF - Title Screen.png 2-File:Milhouse holding Muppet-shaped cheese.png I think these are the ones you say. / Loco87 ^{(Talk / Contribs)} 14:31, May 8, 2015 (EDT)

Oh, it was Muppets. Thanks! The Solar Dragon 14:34, May 8, 2015 (EDT)

Lisa with an "S" in the article

Hey loco, was reading your article about Season 27 and found that Lisa with an "S" link is not working, probably cause of the weird " in the title and the site not recognising them. Maybe it's worth a check. Thanks for the great job. I'm going to do an article on topix, of course giving you and the blog a shoutout too since you did all the great job. thanks as always. LetsPlayNintendoITA (talk) 13:26, June 1, 2015 (EDT)

I made a work around by changing the link to remove the "s and redirected it to the episode. The Solar Dragon 13:59, June 1, 2015 (EDT)

Since it's on the blog it probably doesn't work like [[Lisa_with_an_"S"]] right? I would have checked and edited myself but I don't have power there. thanks for the quick fix solar LetsPlayNintendoITA (talk) 14:24, June 1, 2015 (EDT)

It works like this: <a href="https://simpsonswiki.com/wiki/Lisa_with_an_S" title="Lisa with an "S"" target="_blank">Lisa with an "S"</a> . Thanks for Telling! / Loco87 ^{(Talk / Contribs)} 14:30, June 1, 2015 (EDT)

no problem :D LetsPlayNintendoITA (talk) 14:43, June 1, 2015 (EDT)

Harry Shearer is back!

DUUUUUUUUDE THE NEWS: Harry Shearer returning to The Simpsons
Wish I could make an article so I can give the news now. Speaking of which, how can I become an editor for the blog too? LetsPlayNintendoITA (talk) 14:45, July 7, 2015 (EDT)

Thanks for telling. Solar Dragon has made the article. And I think you should ask him about how to become an editor for the blog. I don't know if Rollback rights are actually "required" to become an editor. I think you would be a great editor and we really need someone to make articles about Tapped Out content updates and so (these type of articles tend to attract lots of "blogs readers"). / Loco87 ^{(TALK / Contribs)} 18:00, July 7, 2015 (EDT)

New Season 27 trailer

THE SIMPSONS | Trumptastic Voyage | ANIMATION on FOX

Uploading picture on the blog

uh what? (I'm trying to upload a 1.06 MB picture) also why can't i select to use thumbnails instead of full size pictures like i can in Topix? LetsPlayNintendoITA (talk) 10:10, July 8, 2015 (EDT)

Comic Con

Hi, The Simpsons Comic Con panel is tomorrow at 12PM PT (7PM GMT, 8PM BST, cba to work out other time zones). I should hopefully be around then to work on a blog post but we have a family BBQ tomorrow and I don't know when it'll end. It could still be going after 8PM. If I'm unable to keep a blog post updated in time, would you be able to do it, or will you be busy too? Thanks, The Solar Dragon 09:11, July 10, 2015 (EDT)

No problem! I'll be able to keep a blog post. In fact, I started a draft of it a couple of weeks ago. I'm going to keep it updated every minute with the help of some webpages that will also do it. (I think last year a web called Digitspy.co.uk or something like that did it. / Loco87 ^{(TALK / Contribs)} 09:18, July 10, 2015 (EDT)

Also, I now have a FoxFlash account so I'll have access to the pics FOX will post there. / Loco87 ^{(TALK / Contribs)} 16:40, July 10, 2015 (EDT)

Thanks for the cover. Just one thing "In San Diego[, California, USA]" can you correct that? It looks weird? also you can add the D.Trump video from the other post and the Guielmo Del Toro video they were talking about isn't it this one? THE SIMPSONS | Treehouse of Horror XXIV Couch Gag by Guillermo del Toro | ANIMATION on FOX LetsPlayNintendoITA (talk) 16:26, July 11, 2015 (EDT)

Just a quick check in from me. Great work with the article. Will you be adding the info to the wiki after? The Solar Dragon 16:49, July 11, 2015 (EDT)

Yes. I'll do it tomorrow. A lot of the info announced had already been released before the con. Also, I will try to post a "panel recap" post in TSS but I don't know if I'll have time for it as I have a family lunch tomorrow and I'll be busy. Anyone feel free to make it if you want. / Loco87 ^{(TALK / Contribs)} 18:22, July 11, 2015 (EDT)

Answers

Not sure if this guy is just trolling and trying to see how many questions we can answer... most of these are fairly obvious or just require a tiny amount of searching. And this is getting stupid the amount of questions he is asking. If this carries on, I might just block the IP... Thoughts? The Solar Dragon 07:14, July 15, 2015 (EDT)

I support blocking the IP. In fact, that IP is already blocked in the Wiki. Maybe what it is doing in Answers is like a revenge?. / Loco87 ^{(TALK / Contribs)} 07:21, July 15, 2015 (EDT)

Okay, I have blocked him. The Solar Dragon 07:24, July 15, 2015 (EDT)

I think he didn't realised that we could just block his IP. He might just think we would just see lots of questions from different people (he used different names for him in each question). / Loco87 ^{(TALK / Contribs)} 07:28, July 15, 2015 (EDT)

It was obvious anyway that it was the same person. All the questions were asked in the same style. The Solar Dragon 07:34, July 15, 2015 (EDT)

Table

I'm Having trouble trying to add another column to a table and it keeps messing up Alicia (talk) 14:14, July 21, 2015 (EDT)

This page explains how to use the Table templates. I think it is all explained pretty well in that page. If you still have trouble with it after having read the page, then tell me and I'll try to fix it. / Loco87 ^{(TALK / Contribs)} 14:22, July 21, 2015 (EDT)

I already looked there but thanks. This is the problem I'm experiencing if you don't mind could you sort of fix it so the first one is done I'll know how to do the rest afterwards basically ]] keeps appearing and the last column is not wide enough even after adding the width http://prntscr.com/7vcjit if that made sense Alicia (talk) 14:40, July 21, 2015 (EDT)

There saved the edit (rough guide) for you now Thanks!! Alicia (talk) 15:09, July 21, 2015 (EDT)

Where's it? Can you link the page? LetsPlayNintendoITA (talk) 15:31, July 21, 2015 (EDT)

Loco87 is trying to fix it up for me at the moment but thanks. Alicia (talk) 15:34, July 21, 2015 (EDT)

Fixed it. Just change {{TH|Test}} to {{TH|Whatever you want}}. And just complete the "ComicsIndexUK3" template just as I've done in the first one of them. / Loco87 ^{(TALK / Contribs)} 15:55, July 21, 2015 (EDT)

Thanks, Thanks, Thanks... Hoping to complete the page 100%ish within a few days. thanks again working on it now. Alicia (talk) 15:59, July 21, 2015 (EDT)

I Don't know why this keeps happening but I tried it again and it keeps messing up so If you would could you please do the same thing here (Bart & Co.) as you did to the other page Alicia (talk) 19:07, July 21, 2015 (EDT)

Done. / Loco87 ^{(TALK / Contribs)} 19:16, July 21, 2015 (EDT)

The Latest Simpsons comics images have disappeared yet the link and image still exist. What happened? (no noticeable differences I can see) https://simpsonswiki.com/wiki/List_of_Simpsons_Comics_in_the_UK Alicia (talk) 22:35, July 21, 2015 (EDT)

The Above issue got fixed. Could you add notes column here (]]) like Simpsons Comics (UK) Please Alicia (talk) 06:56, July 22, 2015 (EDT)

Done. / Loco87 ^{(TALK / Contribs)} 07:20, July 22, 2015 (EDT)

I think this should be the last few things i'll need from your kind helpfulness. http://prntscr.com/7vo92l could you add a "Last published " under "first published" in the template. and secondly could you edit https://simpsonswiki.com/wiki/The_Best_of_The_Simpsons_(comic_series) to https://simpsonswiki.com/wiki/The_Best_of_The_Simpsons_In_The_UK https://simpsonswiki.com/wiki/Simpsons_Super_Spectacular_(UK) to https://simpsonswiki.com/wiki/Simpsons_Super_Spectacular_In_The _UK and finally https://simpsonswiki.com/wiki/Simpsons_Comics_Presents_Simpsons_One-shot_Wonders_(UK) to https://simpsonswiki.com/wiki/Simpsons_Comics_Presents_Simpsons_One-shot_Wonders_In_The_UK cause as you know when i tried to edit it I did something wrong didn't I last time?

That Should Be all the help I'd need with to finish them all off. Alicia (talk) 10:50, July 22, 2015 (EDT)

The current names of the pages are already fine. The one you renamed before seems fine with the name you've given to it. Your only mistake has been renaming it to "List of Bart Simpson in the UK" (you forgot the word "comics" between "Bart Simpson" and "in the UK"). Also, if you want to rename the pages you just have to click "rename" in the top of a page. And to which pages do you want me to add "Last Published"??(Also, to link to pages from the wiki do it like explained in this page). / Loco87 ^{(TALK / Contribs)} 11:04, July 22, 2015 (EDT)

Okay I see. I know how to add them now since you did the bart Simpson one Alicia (talk) 11:10, July 22, 2015 (EDT)

~~I don't see how to add, I've looked in the help [[1]] here Alicia (talk) 17:20, July 25, 2015 (EDT)~~

Do I have to ask someone like you to upload images? Or Can I upload images? can't find anything about uploading them, thanks
Also how do you add 2 images into a box[[2]] Alicia (talk) 18:20, July 25, 2015 (EDT) Found it, Wow I feel like an idiot just then when I found it Alicia (talk) 04:35, July 26, 2015 (EDT)

I'm sorry I couldn't answer your questions. I had to go to a wedding of a distant cousin. But I'm happy to see you solved your problems. Also, if you have any doubts and I'm not able to answer you, you can also ask other members of Wikisimpsons' (active) Staff. / Loco87 ^{(TALK / Contribs)} 08:03, July 26, 2015 (EDT)

Thats fine and I understand :) How would I go about and do this [[3]] Alicia (talk) 17:25, July 27, 2015 (EDT)

~~Template:ComicsListUK the templates broken and don't know how to fix it thanks Alicia (talk) 13:46, August 5, 2015 (EDT)~~

I replaced an image but the white bars are still there just with the image squished why? also could you delete this page because its contents is joined to another page, Oh and now the transparency has gone in one of the images i've uploaded Alicia (talk) 14:10, August 18, 2015 (EDT)

Site not working correctly

Hey Loco, i've two problems:

I can't login from either browser: the site says "Wikisimpsons uses cookies to log in users. You have cookies disabled. Please enable them and try again.". I've them enabled.
Resizes pictures doesn't work (|100px, etc. ones). "Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination".

Do you know what it can be or is it only me? (Signed: LetsPlayNintendoITA)

I have the same problem, I was already login but could not save any page. I logged out but can't log in again. Some tumbnail seems wrong for me./AleWi

I don't like to log out so I'm always logged in and with the option of remember my login. It all works for me. I'm going to log out and then log in again. I've seen something related to the thumbnail error but I can't remember what was it. / Loco87 ^{(TALK / Contribs)} 19:22, September 4, 2015 (EDT)

I've logged out and re-logged in again. It all works. If the problems are still there you should ask Solar or Jake about this. They know more about this issues. / Loco87 ^{(TALK / Contribs)} 19:26, September 4, 2015 (EDT)

Question about images

Hi, why did you upload a lower quality image of this https://simpsonswiki.com/wiki/File:Bull-E_promo_5.jpg and the other promos for the episode? Also is the one you uploaded here https://simpsonswiki.com/wiki/File:HomerLovesFlanders.png really better than the one I uploaded? Yours look stretched, but I may be wrong. FatHomer^Talk 16:35, September 18, 2015 (EDT)

1)I just uploaded better (and smaller) versions of those promo pics because when JPG images are too big they lose quality when scaled down to 250px. Solar told me that and it's true. He said that 653x367 is the perfect size for promo images. And 2) The image looked better if it had a 4:3 ratio and if it had a 540p quality rather than 480p quality. / Loco87 ^{(TALK / Contribs)} 05:39, September 19, 2015 (EDT)

Okay, thanks I understand then. :) FatHomer^Talk 06:00, September 19, 2015 (EDT)

Thank you too for uploading lots of better quality images. / Loco87 ^{(TALK / Contribs)} 10:04, September 19, 2015 (EDT)

Hi

have you check your email? FatHomer^Talk 13:13, September 19, 2015 (EDT)

I have checked my email but I haven't received your reply. / Loco87 ^{(TALK / Contribs)} 14:17, September 19, 2015 (EDT)

That's strange, anyway, I emailed it again to support@simpsonswiki.com FatHomer^Talk 15:12, September 19, 2015 (EDT)

If you don't see it, go to the irc FatHomer^Talk 15:13, September 19, 2015 (EDT)

The Springfield Shopper: User to ban

Please ban this spammer. IP, email and nickname.

he kept spamming TSTOTopix over and over with different nicknames saying s**t all over the place. I know we've to approve comments but its better to ban him anyway. thanks LetsPlayNintendoITA (talk) 18:47, September 22, 2015 (EDT)

New Skin Search Bar

Hey Loco! I just wanted to let you know that I've coded it in for you to get the old style search bar when using the new skin, since I know that's one of your oppositions to using the new skin. I'm hoping to offer this as an option to everyone eventually, but for now it's just programmed in for your account. Hope this helps! --Ja ke 12:44, October 12, 2015 (EDT)

The search bar is in the old place for me. I doesn't matter to me but I thought you should know. I'm using safari. FatHomer^Talk 12:52, October 12, 2015 (EDT)

new place for me LetsPlayNintendoITA 12:54, October 12, 2015 (EDT)

The new search bar has some display problems on Safari (Mac only, not on iPads/iPhones), so the old search bar is always used for Safari users. If you're using anything except Safari (and you aren't Loco87), you should be getting the new one. --Ja ke 13:15, October 12, 2015 (EDT)

Thanks Jake! Just one little thing more: In the new skin there's less space left between lines than in the old skin. Just this observation, but it's not quite important. Again, thanks Jake! / Loco87 ^{( / Contribs)} 12:55, October 12, 2015 (EDT)

You mean the spacing for the text in articles, right? I can adjust that to make it bigger. --Ja ke 13:15, October 12, 2015 (EDT)

I think it's that. See this image to see it. (And I'm not talking about the font size). / Loco87 ^{( / Contribs)} 13:29, October 12, 2015 (EDT)
