SolarBot Notifications[edit]

SolarBot is configured so that changes it makes don't show up on the "Recent Changes" page, correct? Is there a way to keep e-mail notifications from being generated when it creates pages, or did I accidentally turn a "notify" feature on? In the last day or so I've gotten 100+ e-mails about SolarBot making talk pages for articles that needed them, and while it's a relief to see it's just the bot hard at work, it is a bit disconcerting to go onto Yahoo and be informed that I've got 60-some or 90-some new e-mails. On the plus side, the bot's work has been prompting me to pay closer attention to my incoming e-mail, so maybe that's a good thing! :-) -- Mythigator (talk) 09:25, May 15, 2021 (EDT)

All my edits are marked as minor and under your preferences, there is an option to not be notified for minor changes. That should work until I'm done. The Solar Dragon 09:47, May 15, 2021 (EDT)

Got it, thanks. -- Mythigator (talk) 13:53, May 15, 2021 (EDT)

I went with an alternate solution -- put a filter in my e-mail so notifications about SolarBot changes go to their own folder. I didn't think it worked, but it turned out that it did, so I'm going to leave my notification settings on the wiki set to notify of minor changes. -- Mythigator (talk) 14:06, May 15, 2021 (EDT)

Sarah Wiggum Details[edit]

Hello, Can I ask why my edit to Sarah Wiggum's page was reverted? Sarah in Uncut Femmes wasn't Canon, and it was a retcon just for that one episode, along with the voice change. This was confirmed by Matt Selman on his twitter, but he for some reason has since deleted the post, and I also asked Al Jean as well and he said the same thing. They knew that this story didn't make sense for Sarah, and she has never been like this since her debut which was in fact "I love Lisa" and she is in the crowd at the school play next to Chief Wiggum, but its hard to notice her, but she had Ginger hair instead of Purple. But Sarah believe it or not does have a personality, but it was primarily established by her actions and emotions and not really by her lines.

I know this because I've seen every appearance of her since her debut, and her continuity has always stayed the same, which is being a soft, sweet, and loving women. Besides, a reason why her in Uncut Femmes was non canon is due to the fact by the way she acts mainly starting in the beginning, acting as an awkward quiet weirdo who can't piece two words together, to this all the sudden cool chick that was a former robber with 3 other random girls. Other things to note is that at the beginning of the episode, Marge walks up to Sarah acting like they have never met before, and Marge also saying that she's Bart's mom. In past episodes, Marge and Sarah are seen together, ie "The Great Wife Hope" and "The Devil Wears Nada" Sarah is seen in a small club gatherings with Marge and others, so they definitely know each other, Sarah definitely knows who Marge is, that Marge is Bart's mom, and knows who Bart is.

Another thing to note is that in the backstory sequence, in the part showing how Sarah and Clancy met is also not consistent of what was established as well, as in the episode A Star Was Born Again Clancy was dancing with Sarah at a festival and he was telling her she was the most beautiful she's ever been since the time he fell in love with her, and his excuse the fall in love with her was to plant crystal meth on her so she would "notice" him because he was too shy to say anything to her, so that way he could arrest her and then hook up with Sarah right there and then and fall and love with her, unless she also fell in love with him at the moment.

Sarah is not a drug addict, or does any drugs or stuff like that, but Clancy only planted drugs on her so he has an excuse to arrest her and fall in love despite her being innocent and not doing anything wrong. Also in the episode, if Clancy "arrested" her, Clancy was already a Police Officer, whereas in Uncut Femmes during the backstory, Clancy is portrayed as being a security guard when he met Sarah, and Sarah was a robber and she is the one that fell in love with him. And its already be established in canon that they met when Clancy was too shy to go up and say anything to her, so he put drugs on her so that she would see him and then he has an excuse to hook up with her because there is meth on her that he threw on her.

The list goes on about Uncut Femmes as being a one time thing for Sarah's retcon and voice. I will tell you this as well, I have seen every appearance of Sarah over the course of the series and have closely watched what she does and how she acts, so I know what I'm talking about by saying she has had a personality before, and it was nothing close too or the same as how she is in this episode. Plus there was never any evidence or build up of this Criminal mastermind Sarah Wiggum either, and that’s because she never was one, she is and will always be just Clancy's sweet, soft wife, and in reality, probably not any different then any of the other moms of Springfield. Still, this episode would've been better if instead of using Sarah, they use a new character, or a character that would better suit this story and plot line, because it sure didn't suit her well.

Hope you Understand now, Thanks. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.67.161.69 (talk) 13:55, May 18, 2021‎

Firstly, I have not seen anything about the canonicity of Uncut Femmes. Either way, the content should be in her article. Secondly, you copied the content from Simpsons Fandom. This is against our plagiarism policy and is a bannable offense. I already told you that on your talk page after the first time you did it. Thirdly, your stolen content frequently mixes in-universe and real world writing styles which is against our character article guidelines. Fourthly, please sign your talk page comments with ~~~~ The Solar Dragon 14:45, May 18, 2021 (EDT)

Lenny Kravitz' image in his page[edit]

Can you get another image of the real life singer in it since the other one was deleted years ago? -- HomerGriffin, May 30, 2021

We're not risking it. A while back, we got an email from Lenny Kravitz' lawyer demanding we remove the image of him from the page. Since then, we've decided not to have an image on the article. The Solar Dragon 13:50, May 30, 2021 (EDT)

Werner Herzog's image link[edit]

I added it on the Star Wars section, I went to the "What links here" button and the Star Wars link does not appear on it. Do you know what the problem is. I added the right link on the page and then nothing appeared. https://simpsonswiki.com/wiki/Special:WhatLinksHere/File:Werner_Herzog.jpg -- HomerGriffin, May 30, 2021

We're having problems with links to pages not updating properly, categories not updating etc. It's what the server maintenance the other day was about, but it didn't work. Next step is to try the MediaWiki upgrade and hope that fixes it, but there's not a timeframe for us doing that yet. The Solar Dragon 11:30, June 29, 2021 (EDT)

edit user[edit]

Hi staff, i new user, how can i do can edit my account? thanks.--Msnhinet8 (talk) 03:11, July 18, 2021 (EDT)

You'll need to be more active before you can create your user page. Make edits in the mainspace and wait a week and you'll be able to create it. The Solar Dragon 06:55, July 18, 2021 (EDT)

Sarah Wiggum Details re[edit]

Hi there, I thought I'd give my word on this, Selman recently confirmed fully and clearly that episodes like this as well as others such as Do Pizza Bots Dream Of Electric Guitars are set in their own universe and are just a way of changing the characters timeline and personality for the plot line of an episode, and Season 32 did this for a handful of episodes, such as Uncut Femmes and the characterization and personality change for Sarah. Just like the user above that typed out what he/she said, I myself have also seen every appearance of Sarah as well, and she was never like this ever, and plus sure she never got a backstory, but it's already been long established on how Sarah and Clancy met, and Clancy is actually the one who met Sarah like the user above explained. She also has a personality as well that has been long established, but its been established primarily by her actions and emotions, and she is not any of this "sexpot jewelry thief" crap either, so she's not (as a lot of these new fans think before this awful boring episode) a "blank slate", and a blank slate is someone who doesn't talk, or let alone have any sort of actions and emotions, so that right there just shows you how stupid some of these people are and don't know the show all that well if you say that and call yourself a fan of the show, a "fan" of the show, especially a true one would know even about side characters that don't really speak much such as Sarah, and the fact she has had a personality for a long time since her debut which was actually in I love Lisa and not Duffless. The voice change was also done for the plot as well and isn't something that will continue, as well as the personality change and one off backstory and what not are also aspects that are one off and set in their own universe (Aspects these new fans also don't seem to realize), I really don't know by what Selman is trying to say by being set in their own universe as he's not too clear on it, but the only explanation is being non canon or just one off, but both mean the same thing, so episodes such as Do Pizza Bots Dream Of Electric Guitars and Uncut Femmes, as well as some others in this season and other episodes in seasons of recent years are non canon and set in their own universe.

So I don't know what users on here immediately jumped to conclusions by saying Sarah was truly how she is in the episode and will be the official continuity of her from now on, as well as stating the guest VA done for her in the episode will also be a recurring cast member and the new voice for her, but that's not the case, and obviously the users that think this obviously haven't paid attention to her over the years since her appearances like other users like myself have, and especially long time fans and ones that don't even watch the show anymore because of how bad it is, but the whole thing about Sarah is like also saying Homer in Pizza Bots being a teenager in the 1990s is canon and will continue as the true continuity of his younger years when that has also already been established of what his age was in the 1990s and earlier, but again, that's also not the case and isn't the true continuity and something that will be the official story. Anyways here is the link to the article discussing this topic and as well as to his regards on his support for a Hit and Run remake, hope this helps and clears confusion and educates a lot of these gullible and new fan that don't pay attention to stuff like this: https://www.ign.com/articles/matt-selman-simpsons-hit-and-run-remake?fbclid=IwAR2dNT3h2bwJAkw8gY72mmgn3f1ndf20KP7iWER4cETTmlkoSbMX7TORVns ~~~~Duderocks5539~~~~

Logan's Run[edit]

You might have noticed I have a page in progress about the Logan's Run movie. I figured that since I found three references easy as pie, getting two more wouldn't be any problem, but no luck so far. I figured there would be more, since Michael York played Logan in the movie and has done guest voice spots on the show. Any ideas? -- Mythigator (talk) 21:45, September 9, 2021 (EDT)

I've never seen the movie so I wouldn't recognise references even if I saw them. lol The Solar Dragon 16:31, September 10, 2021 (EDT)

Low quality images replacement[edit]

Hey Solar, incredible work of yours by replacing all of those low quality images. I underestimated that task and ended up replacing much fewer pictures than I expected. Thanks, --Simpsons88 (talk) 06:20, September 26, 2021 (EDT)

It took a long time to get through them all, but I've pretty much cleared the category now, except for a few that I can't get from episodes. I'm sure I'll be able to fill the category up again at some point though. lol The Solar Dragon 09:40, September 26, 2021 (EDT)

List of references in other media[edit]

Why did you revert my edit to the video games section on List of references in other media? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 152.36.145.13 (talk) 11:07, September 26, 2021

Due to how huge The Simpsons is, there's references everywhere and in everything. Therefore, we have decided that only media that actually has a Wikipedia page gets on the references in other media page. The Henry Stickmin Collection doesn't have a Wikipedia page, so no mention on the page. The Solar Dragon 11:10, September 26, 2021 (EDT)

Oh ok that makes sense. But for the record, The Henry Stickmin Collection did have a Wikipedia page at one point, but it was deleted for some reason. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 152.36.145.13 (talk) 11:13, September 26, 2021‎

Springfield Heights side-quests[edit]

Hi there as my title says I refer to the "Republic of Condo", "Getting Classy", "Cubical Dream", "Show-Vroom" & "Above The Clouds Of Springfield" quests, if I'm not bad-informed those quests are all unlocked after upgrading "a Heights building" (Deluxe Condo for instance), but I was reviewing and I could see that putting for example the quest "Above The Clouds of Springfield pt. 2" it's unlocked only after unlocking the Lisa's task slot at Coffee Shop, I need you to please to review and corroborate this info, 'cause if it's so (that a side-quest part unlocks after unlocking a character-task slot) the info on all quests posted in wiki are wrong, excuse me for a so long message, luck for you and good day

File:Mona Lisa (Helter Shelter).png[edit]

Tha Mona Lisa appears in the couch gag. Krloz to (talk) 14:50, November 3, 2021 (EDT)

Ah, thank you. The Solar Dragon 14:51, November 3, 2021 (EDT)

If you would like, I can have a go at screencapping it from Frinkiac this evening (USA Pacific time). But I don't know how much improvement we'll get in the image quality, as the Mona Lisa painting only occupies a small portion of the screen. -- Mythigator (talk) 15:08, November 3, 2021 (EDT)

It's fine, I'm grabbing images from Disney+ so I can get them in the highest quality possible. The Solar Dragon 15:10, November 3, 2021 (EDT)

Both the News and Answers feeds are broken.[edit]

On the main page, in the spaces the feeds would go it just says “Failed to load RSS feed from http://news.simpsonswiki.com/feed/: There was a problem during the HTTP request: 404 Not Found” (for the News) and “Failed to load RSS feed from http://answers.simpsonswiki.com/feed/qa.rss: There was a problem during the HTTP request: 404 Not Found” (for the Answers). Is there a way you could fix this? Thanks. FireyYoshi (talk) 13:32, December 4, 2021 (EST)

The Garfield page[edit]

Hi. Do you think we could do a merge page thing between the comic strip and the character? You know, with the references, the actors and anything. -- HomerGriffin, December 7, 2021 HomerGriffin (talk) 11:39, December 7, 2021 (EST)

I would suggest that you start a page in your userspace, at User:HomerGriffin/Garfield. Once that's good enough to be mainspaced, I'll deal with moving pages so there's no conflicts. I feel like there should be enough references for an actual references page. The Solar Dragon 11:41, December 7, 2021 (EST)

Wikipedia Ref standard change?[edit]

The wikisimpsons Style Guide used to say that Wikipedia refs are indicated with a lower-case "w." Has that changed? Am seeing new refs from you that seem to prefer UPPER CASE "W". —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.218.101.125 (talk) 01:43, December 24, 2021

The style guides are mostly outdated and haven't been updated for years. The W template had been used with w and W in multiple places so I decided to standardize them all and change them to the capital. Wikipedia is a proper noun, so the template should be capital W. The Solar Dragon 06:35, December 24, 2021 (EST)

The Ice Age page[edit]

Why are you deleting it?

I was going to put in the Denis Leary part in and the Scrat scenes from the different episodes in the references part later tonight. HonerGriffin —Preceding unsigned comment added by HomerGriffin (talk • contribs) 12:36, March 8, 2022

I haven't deleted it. I have put it up for deletion, which should be discussed before anything is done about it. I personally can't think of enough references to warrant a page for Ice Age though. See the discussion at Wikisimpsons:Pages for deletion. The Solar Dragon 12:48, March 8, 2022 (EST)

Problem on Questions and Answers page.[edit]

I want to ask a new question, but I can't log in. I can access the regular site log in section, but the WikiSimpons Answers login is apparently separate. And when I click "login" button, it leads to a "Not Found" page. What can be done? Spare-tire (talk) 21:42, March 10, 2022 (EST)

We are aware of this issue and are working on a fix for it. The Solar Dragon 06:43, March 11, 2022 (EST)

About the "Ice Age" page...[edit]

Face it. The "page for deletion" page you talked about for the Ice Age page is never going to be replied at all and I don't want the Ice Age page to be deleted by you. It was only referenced in The Simpsons a few times. Why do you not like it here in the wiki? -- HomerGriffin, March 29, 2021

It was still against the notability policy so it has been deleted. The Solar Dragon 15:16, March 29, 2022 (EDT)

build chinese[edit]

Hello, i from Taiwan, you can build chinese simpsonswiki?--Msnhinet8 (talk) 09:28, May 9, 2022 (EDT)

Thanks.--Msnhinet8 (talk) 09:28, May 9, 2022 (EDT)

We previously had a Chinese Wikisimpsons, however it had no traffic and not many edits. We would be reluctant to take on the workload of building another one as a result. If someone else was to make one, we would be willing to link to it as part of the Simpsons Wiki Network. The Solar Dragon 09:31, May 9, 2022 (EDT)

ok,i know, thanks.--Msnhinet8 (talk) 09:32, May 9, 2022 (EDT)

Yes, feel free to use the logo, but I would suggest you edit it slightly to show that it's the Chinese Wikisimpsons. The Solar Dragon 09:53, May 9, 2022 (EDT)

ok, thanks.--Msnhinet8 (talk) 09:54, May 9, 2022 (EDT)

can you look?--Msnhinet8 (talk) 10:07, May 9, 2022 (EDT)

Like I already said, I want your wiki to have a lot more content and for you to show that this isn't just a temporary thing you're doing before I do anything else. Also, don't expect immediate responses. I am busy with other things too. Another thing, the logo isn't showing up properly on your wiki and is covered in a black square. The Solar Dragon 10:08, May 9, 2022 (EDT)

ok, thanks.--Msnhinet8 (talk) 10:10, May 9, 2022 (EDT)

One thing you should know.[edit]

In the Infosphere, the Futurama encyclopedia, the real world songs you hear is missing the song "Bust a Move" by Young Mc. I found you on there and you never edit it, but can you give it try to add it in there? It was heard in "Bender Should Not be Allowed on TV", and it is not in the episode itself, too. I cannot edit there because I tried to sign in and it is not similar to this encyclopedia. The page is right here. [1] -- HomerGriffin, May 26, 2022

Tucker Carlson[edit]

Why was my comment on Tucker Carlson undone? Take it from a non-Trumper California girl: The writers' inclusion of him in the Fox reference is clearly meant to be disparaging, in the sense of "this is what's wrong with America". Leaving only the bland "Tucker Carlson was referenced" completely ignores WHY he was referenced. Please help me understand how better to get my insights included. 2600:1702:2770:7680:E12A:8510:B200:6B13 00:01, May 28, 2022 (EDT)California Girl

It was an unneeded addition, and also more of an opinion than fact. The Solar Dragon 07:07, May 28, 2022 (EDT)

I'll give you a tip[edit]

If you were as big a fan of Star Wars as you are of the Simpsons, you would understand me and we would not come to such an absurd discussion. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 130.206.68.1 (talk) 07:44, June 1, 2022‎

Funny, I just got done watching episode 3 of Obi-Wan Kenobi. It's an opinion. Opinions have no place on Wikisimpsons. The Solar Dragon 07:46, June 1, 2022 (EDT)

What will you know about reality more than me, if I investigate and the opinion is from the fifty-year-old haters, not mine. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 130.206.68.1 (talk) 07:50, June 1, 2022

An opinion from someone else is still an opinion. The Solar Dragon 07:52, June 1, 2022 (EDT)

They are not the opinion of one person, they are the opinions of several, you should find out on the Internet about the criticisms of people who were between 25 and 40 years old at the time those three films were released. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.148.46.230 (talk) 13:11, June 1, 2022

May I point you back to my previous message? Opinions of multiple people are still just that... opinions. The Solar Dragon 13:12, June 1, 2022 (EDT)

"The Things We Do" quest (possibly unlocks Maggie)[edit]

Hi Solar Dragon, I was reviewing this When The Bough Breaks quest and I realized that after finishing it, Maggie can be unlocked, but I'm not totally sure about it, 'cause you know, if it's true, then Maggie wouldn't be an optional character during all the event. Sanarkroid 22:40, June 7, 2022 (EDT)

Hello, yes I just noticed that Maggie unlocks on completing The Things We Do. I'm adding it to the page thanks! LetsPlayNintendoITA 11:15, June 9, 2022 (EDT)

Hi[edit]

Any explanation why you reverted my edit on The Walt Disney Company? -- PanchamBro (talk • contributions) 02:27, June 22, 2022 (EDT)

WIkisimpsons is a wiki about The Simpsons, not about the real world. Therefore the real world information you added was removed. The Solar Dragon 07:00, June 22, 2022 (EDT)

Rename Demand[edit]

Hey Solar Dragon. I would like to rename this account from "Monstromart manager" to "Lastro". Is that possible? –Monstromart manager (talk) 11:20, June 28, 2022 (EDT)

it has been done. The Solar Dragon 11:41, June 28, 2022 (EDT)

Yellow wease[edit]

Hi. I saw you deleted my edit and File:Yellow weasel miscolored.png. However this was mistaken -- I'm saying that in the frame (and the rest in the same shot) the yellow weasel, shown on the right with the blobby hair in the middle of his head rather than the short hair, is miscolored as black. The black weasel with the other hairstyle is visible in the left side of the frame. Blocks45 (talk) 14:32, July 23, 2022 (EDT)

Oh yeah, I see it now. Okay, I'll restore the image and edit. The Solar Dragon 14:45, July 23, 2022 (EDT)

It was reverted for 2 reasons. 1) I like to have evidence of a character being in an episode, which you have now provided. 2) The appearances pages should be in alphabetical order and you put T-Rex at the end of the gallery. I have added him in where he should be now. The Solar Dragon 14:08, September 28, 2022 (EDT)

Bitcoin mining[edit]

With respect, Mr. Dragon, The Simpsons writers are poking fun at those--like Jesse in this episode-- who think Bitcoin mining refers to actual physical mines, which is totally false. Bitcoin mining was even the subject of an entire episode of The Big Bang Theory! The line here is funny ONLY if you already know that Bitcoins are not "mined" in actual mines. And since not all wikisimmpsons devotees may already know that, IMHO it is essential to make that clear in the References item. 2600:1702:2770:7680:BDA7:C6A2:F381:4099 21:55, October 3, 2022 (EDT)California Girl

The King of Nice plot[edit]

Hello, the plot for The King of Nice has not been written yet, even though the episode came out. Is this just an oversight? FireyYoshi (talk) 20:19, October 18, 2022 (EDT)

The usual person who writes the plots hasn't been around to do it. I plan on getting it done at some point myself. The Solar Dragon 07:01, October 19, 2022 (EDT)

Missing photos of Simpsons crew[edit]

Hello Solar Dragon. I noticed that majority of The Simpsons crew has no photos on this website. Some notable crew members like Susie Dietter, Neil Affleck, Carlos Baeza, Raymond S. Persi, Shaun Cashman, Lance Kramer, Raymie Muzquiz, Kevin O'Brien, the late Jerry Richardson, Pat Shinagawa, and many other crew members have no pictures uploaded to the site, however pictures of those crew members are uploaded on Google. Can you upload photos of some of these crew members listed? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.255.225.138 (talk) 11:09, November 28, 2022‎

We generally only upload images of crew members if we can be sure they are them from official sources, generally Wikipedia and IMDb. A majority of the images on Google searches come from Fandom wikis, which we have no idea where they got the images from, or if the images are even of the actual person.

Some people like Kevin O'Brien, Susie Dietter and Shaun Cashman uploaded pictures of themselves on their Linkedin accounts. Also, there is a few photos of Raymond S. Persi on IMDb that is uploaded when he attended the screening of Ralph Breaks the Internet (in which he was a story artist and was the voice of Gene). One more thing about the Fandom wikis comment, some of those pictures that were uploaded on these wikis were various sources, some of them during screenings, some of them from old group photos, some of them from their websites, etc. I'm just asking it is ok that you can upload the photos of some crew? I'm not saying EVERY crew member, besides not all crew members have photos posted online.

The only reason why I asked this is because when I was adding crew members of The Simpsons that also worked on Futurama, half of the crew (mostly the animation crew) has no photo at all. Although it is understandable for some, people like Susie Dietter, Raymie Muzquiz and other people have photos posted online and they are indeed the same people that worked in the animation industry. Here's some proof. Here is the only picture of Susie Dietter sourced from her Linkedin account. (Photo 1). Here is a photo of Raymie Muzquiz sourced from an interview from Round Springfield (Photo 2). —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.255.225.138 (talk) 12:50, November 28, 2022‎

Here's some more: Dominic Polcino Neil Affleck Shaun Cashman Jeffrey Lynch (by the way, this is the only picture of him saved online) Mike Frank Polcino Steven Dean Moore Matthew Faughnan Chris Clements Timothy Bailey Klay Hall Alan Smart Chuck Sheetz (Yes, there is already a picture of him in the wiki but in the old photo, he's standing too far from the camera.) Brian Sheesley (There is already a picture of him in the wiki too but the new photo is more higher quality than the previous photo.) Matthew Schofield Pete Michels Michael_Marcantel Carlos Baeza James Purdum (The guy on the right in the photo is Purdum.) Ethan Spaulding Tuck Tucker John Eng (The guy on the left in the photo is John Eng) Chris Moeller (sourced from his obituary) Mark Ervin Dave Cunningham Steven Fonti Karen Carnegie Johnson Adam Kuhlman John Mathot Roy Meurin (sourced from Linkedin) Raymond S.

Firstly, please sign your messages with ~~~~. Secondly, feel free to create an account so you can upload images yourself. Thirdly, There are many links to images from Fandom there, which we will not be using as images as the source is too dubious. Fourthly, I'm way too busy to upload a large amount of images on demand. The Solar Dragon 19:43, November 28, 2022 (EST)

I'm sorry SolarDragon. I wasn't meant for you to upload ALL of the photos now. I already mentioned that I'm not adding EVERY crew member since not everyone has a photo. Here are the photo links that are not sourced from Fandom. Dominic Polcino Neil Affleck Shaun Cashman Timothy Bailey Klay Hall Alan Smart Chuck Sheetz Brian Sheesley Matthew Schofield Pete Michels Ethan Spaulding Tuck Tucker Chris Moeller Steven Fonti Roy Meurin Ira Sherak David Schwartz Howy Parkins Joshua Sternin Brendan Hay Nora Johnson Some people such as Timothy Bailey, Steven Fonti, Roy Meurin and Nora Johnson were sourced from their linkedin accounts. The ones sourced from Fandom will be replaced at some point. Sorry I used that site, many of the missing crew member photos are much higher quality than the ones from other websites. I'm not forcing you to upload EVERY crew member, it will be outright impossible. 69.255.225.138 15:09, November 29, 2022 (EST)

Re: plot hole?[edit]

I once tried to add trivia point addressing a plot hole in the Emmy-winning season 2 episode while editing anonymously, but it kept getting deleted. Now that I have addressed it in the form a question on the talk page, how come no one is answering? --Spare-tire (talk) 21:03, December 3, 2022 (EST)

No one is required to answer talk page messages. As for the "plot hole", I really don't see how it is a plot hole. Bart never went to Hell, it was literally a dream, one that he might have forgotten. The Solar Dragon 07:08, December 4, 2022 (EST)

So he didn't temporarily die when Mr. Burns' car ran into him? He just imagined it? --Spare-tire (talk) 15:56, December 4, 2022 (EST)

Heaven and Hell aren't real places... So, no. It was just a dream. The Solar Dragon 16:07, December 4, 2022 (EST)

When you say that, does it mean you're an atheist? Nothing personal, of course. Spare-tire (talk) 16:26, December 4, 2022 (EST)

That has nothing to do with anything, but yes, I'm an atheist. Point is Heaven and Hell in The Simpsons are only ever visited in dreams, comas etc. or non-canon episodes. They are not real physical locations that people go to. The Solar Dragon 16:29, December 4, 2022 (EST)

Missing photos continued[edit]

I found a photo for a crew member that have a missing photo Stephanie Arnett sourced from her IMDb page. Here is the link to upload to the site. Photo of Stephanie Arnett 76.21.235.56 13:08, December 8, 2022 (EST)

You could always create an account and upload the images yourself. I'm not going to just be uploading every image you ask me to when you're perfectly capable of doing it yourself. The Solar Dragon 13:24, December 8, 2022 (EST)

Alright, thank you. I already told you that I'm not uploading EVERY crew member because there are some crew members that doesn't have archived photos online. 76.21.235.56 13:33, December 8, 2022 (EST)

And I said nothing about uploading pictures of every crew member. I'm just not going to upload images on demand when you can do that yourself. The Solar Dragon 14:40, December 8, 2022 (EST)

Another question[edit]

Now, I'm just being curious again. Why do we keep The Simpsons Movie placed in the television lineup, even though it was produced separate from the main series? --Spare-tire (talk)

Gravity Falls page[edit]

What happened to the Gravity Falls page that I put on the Cultural references section? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Crwilliams (talk • contribs) 09:50, February 1, 2023

It was against the notability policy so it was deleted. The Solar Dragon 09:53, February 1, 2023 (EST)

Apu last voiced[edit]

Wasn’t Apu last voiced appearance technically in Dogtown since the appearance in The Serfsons was a look-alike counterpart? 2600:387:9:9:0:0:0:8F 15:01, February 2, 2023 (EST)

It was still Apu. Like Homer Serfson is still Homer, King Quimby is still Mayor Quimby etc. The Solar Dragon 16:06, February 2, 2023 (EST)

Tapped out[edit]

Why aren't there any more gameplay transcripts? --205.213.104.126 20:03, February 7, 2023 (EST)

Since LPN was the one who did them, and never explained how to access the text from the game's files, they never continued when LPN stopped editing the wiki. Also, they're a lot of work for not much gain. They weren't exactly well visited pages on the wiki. The Solar Dragon 06:38, February 8, 2023 (EST)

Help to find an episode[edit]

Hello,

My name is João and I'm a Simpsons fan from Brazil. About 10 years ago (2013 or 2014), I watched an episode where Lenny sees the devil or a monster, screams something and runs away (alongside with the crowd). In Portuguese, he said "É o tinhoso" (which is a funny way to say "It's the devil"). I'm not sure what he actually says in original English.

I'm trying so hard to find this episode, but I just can't. I want to see this scene again, I loved it.

Do you think you could help me to find it?

Thank you so much!! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Navaronee (talk • contribs) 15:41, March 17, 2023‎

Please only use my talk page (and email) for Wikisimpsons related queries. I don't have the time to go looking into what episode you might mean on top of everything else I have going on. The Solar Dragon 18:23, March 17, 2023 (EDT)

Protection for "Homer's Adventures in the Windshield Glass/Gags"[edit]

Hello. I watched and payed attention to the opening sequence for the 750th episode where 750 characters appeared in the intro. I was contributing to add some more characters that appeared in the intro but all of my contributions have been reverted. All of the characters that I originally added to this page actually did appear in the intro. I wasn't vandalizing that caused this page to become protected, since I did watched the intro and payed attention to which characters that appeared in the intro. That's all I have to say. 76.100.142.157 13:14, May 22, 2023 (EDT)

Go to the page. Look at the top of the page and read what the template says. I've marked the page as a Work in Progress. I am working on it. Another user coming in and make additions will cause edit conflicts whilst I work on it. The Solar Dragon 13:15, May 22, 2023 (EDT)

Oh, okay. Thanks for telling me. Hopefully it will be unprotected as soon as you get all 750 characters. Happy editing Solar Dragon! 76.100.142.157 14:00, May 22, 2023 (EDT)

Marge Simpson edit request[edit]

This page is protected. "B." should be changed to "Bouvier". See Talk:Marge Simpson#Middle name? for references where she is called "Marge Bouvier Simpson". OQ25 (talk) 07:34, June 6, 2023 (EDT)

Bouvier is her maiden name, not her middle name. The Solar Dragon 07:39, June 6, 2023 (EDT)

Then why the "B."? OQ25 (talk) 07:40, June 6, 2023 (EDT)

Because her middle name has been said to begin with "B", we just don't know what it is. The Solar Dragon 07:41, June 6, 2023 (EDT)

Retirement[edit]

Have you good sir ever thought about your possible retirement from this wiki? Please let me know. Thanks mate. User:Guzzlord 09:08, June 8, 2023 (EDT

Not Receiving Springfield Shopper Blog Post Emails[edit]

Hi, I had subscribed long ago to receive emails from Wikisimpsons about new Springfield Shopper blog posts, but I'm not receiving those emails anymore, and I don't know why, because as far as I'm aware of, I did not accidentally unsubscribe. The last email that I had received from Wikisimpsons was back in April 2023. It has been 2 months since then, and I have not received any further emails from Wikisimpsons during that time. GarfieldofBorg (talk) 16:13, June 27, 2023 (EDT)

What is your email address? I can check if it's still subscribed or not. Last email went out June 8th. The Solar Dragon 17:02, June 27, 2023 (EDT)

My email address is garfieldofborg@gmail.com . Just to make sure, I doubled checked the Inbox and Junk mail folders of my email account, and there were no Springfield Shopper Blog Post emails dated for after April 2023. GarfieldofBorg (talk) 15:36, June 28, 2023 (EDT)

Hmm. You're definitely in the database so I'm not sure why you're not getting the emails. I think I've figured out the issue though. Occasionally, when trying to submit a news article, we get a 404 error. This seems to interrupt the email system. In future, I'll make sure to push out the email manually if it doesn't trigger. The Solar Dragon 18:03, June 28, 2023 (EDT)

Canon and non-canon[edit]

I thought canon is only TV series (except to Treehouse Terror specials), so Simpson comics are not canon and as a consequence, "The duffman Cometh!" isn't canon. If I am wrong, what is canon when we talk about the Simpsons? Thanks in advance —Preceding unsigned comment added by ChiefWiggumFan (talk • contribs) 11:50, August 5, 2023

Comics are canon unless they break the episode canon. See our page on canon for more details. The Solar Dragon 12:28, August 5, 2023 (EDT)

You Reverted My Edit[edit]

Why the hell did you revert my edit on Grand Theft Otto? There's literally a poster that says it in The Simpsons Game, go check. You've stepped too far this time. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 2a02:c7c:f81d:2b00:ad0b:385e:120f:aa87 (talk) 11:39, September 3, 2023‎

1) it's Grand Theft Scratchy in The Simpsons Game, not Grand Theft Otto. 2) If it was in The Simpsons Game, you added that info in the wrong place (it shouldn't go in the article introduction) and it wasn't written from an in-universe point of view. And The Simpsons Game is non-canon so should have gone under a Non-canon header 3) Don't go saying stuff like "You've stepped too far this time". Reverting an edit isn't going "too far". It's just making sure the wiki is accurate and using the proper manual of style. And saying how you did just comes across as rude. The Solar Dragon 11:46, September 3, 2023 (EDT)

Yeah, I thought they could do with something to separate them and order them by comic series because a lot of them were a mess and out of order. They're looking a lot neater now. The Solar Dragon 15:57, October 21, 2023 (EDT)

Hello from Independent Wiki Federation![edit]

Heyo, my name is Kate and I am a member of the Independent Wiki Federation.

Today is a pretty busy day (new episode day) so I'll look into it and get back to you when I have more time. However, I will say that Firefox flagged the website as a potential security risk when I tried to access it? So, that might be something you need to look into.

"Onderdunk"[edit]

If you are going to revert the correct spelling of 'Underdunk' to what some scriptwriter said, and protect the page to force your view through, at least get what the scriptwriter said right.

Adding predicted content about an episode[edit]

You reverted two edits by me adding character categories to two Season 36 articles that are mentioned in the title of the episode, on the ground that it has not aired yet anywhere. However, you did not revert my earlier edit to Season 35 episode Bart's Brain, which also has a character mentioned in the title, but major character status is confirmed by promo images and the initial description, as well as airing in the US in the next two days. Are there any guidelines or unwritten agreements that adding predicted information about an episode based on available evidence is not recommended? MediocreUsername (talk) 16:50, May 17, 2024 (EDT)

We know the synopsis for "Bart's Brain". We don't know the snyopses for the other episodes. The synopsis for Bart's Brain makes it clear that Bart will be the main character. We can't use episode titles alone as sometimes they might have a different "main character" to them. For example, "Bart's in Jail!" sounds like Bart would be the main character from the episode title alone, but it was actually a Grampa episode. The Solar Dragon 17:08, May 17, 2024 (EDT)

Automatic blocks[edit]

Are IP ranges that are in public areas now forbidden from editing?

The internet address of public library computers in my town now have been blocked automatically, being suspected of "open-proxy" (whatever that means). --2600:1700:F160:5E00:283A:AE1D:27AF:C7E6 23:01, May 26, 2024 (EDT)

Please, I just want to know for sure. Are all IP address in range 205.213.0.0/16 put under automatic blocking now? --2600:1700:F160:5E00:45BC:3364:ACEA:7BAB 18:32, June 16, 2024 (EDT)

That range is not blocked on the wiki so I have no idea why you won't be able to edit from there. The Solar Dragon 18:45, June 16, 2024 (EDT)

Replace Images With Newer Version Images[edit]

Hi Solar, my ask is too simple, so's I wanna know if a massive image replacement can be done for not to be editing so much, more appropriatedly, Tapped Out characters' conversation icons, just that, gl. Sanarkroid 00:08, May 30, 2024 (EDT)

Do you want to replace an image with an existing image on the wiki? Because I can use my bot to do that. If it's a new image, there's a way to replace that by clicking on the "Upload new version" link on the image's page. What image are you wanting to replace? The Solar Dragon 06:58, May 30, 2024 (EDT)

Tapped Out icons[edit]

Hi Solar, I've got some files downloaded to my server in my blogging-era times, so yes, I can see that some icons are in a different resolution, and there's no annoyance if you replace them, cool with that, I only want to help and contribute. Sanarkroid 19:48, June 6, 2024 (EDT)

Just curious again[edit]

Why did you guys delete the template cards that catalogued characters that the Simpson family members played within a non-canon story or sketch? --Spare-tire (talk) 22:52, July 2, 2024 (EDT)

Because it was really dubious what counted for the template. They often included everything from THOH characters, to past family members, to characters they pretended to be for pranks. There was no criteria for what counted in the template, so it just became a confusing mess with no guidelines on what to put in them. For that reason, I deleted them. The Solar Dragon 06:51, July 3, 2024 (EDT)

So the importance of the role plays was "dubious", in other words overly ambiguous and redundant? That's too bad. Personally, finding and adding names to each category was fun for me. However, you are one who pretty-much knows what is best for the site, so I'm not going to argue. Spare-tire (talk) 19:17, July 9, 2024 (EDT)

Hey, I'm still curious about the site's former major subsidiary, WikiSimpsonsAnswers. It has been nearly three years since it stopped letting people in and there hasn't been any word said about it. It's just been sitting there, with no signs of any changes or any redirects to a login page. That still worries me.
