Spam

Hi, HOMER SIMPSON is Spam. It's been marked with the delete template. Thanks! Effluvium talk contributions email 16:48, May 31, 2010 (UTC)

Wikisimpsons time

Hi, I was wondering what time area does Wikisimpsons follow? It says on various pages - "votes end June 1st 2010 Wikisimpsons time" - is it GMT or some other? I'd like to know, just to see the changes made when all the votes are counted in. Because I'm weird like that! :) Effluvium talk contributions email 22:31, May 31, 2010 (UTC)

It is official Wikia time. On your preferences, it says something like +/- 0 hours. That is Wikia time. The Solar Dragon 07:27, June 1, 2010 (UTC)

OK. And I was meaning to ask you - what day will the rollback nominations end? Thanks! Effluvium talk contributions email 09:35, June 1, 2010 (UTC)

A week after it started for rollback. Two weeks for Admin and Bureaucrat. The Solar Dragon 09:38, June 1, 2010 (UTC)

Thanks! Effluvium talk contributions email 09:39, June 1, 2010 (UTC)

That should be the 3rd then. Two days left. The Solar Dragon 09:40, June 1, 2010 (UTC)

OK. And thanks for nominating me for the homer award again this month - it means a lot to me! :) Effluvium talk contributions email 16:09, June 1, 2010 (UTC)

Yeah well, I will probably be nominating just about everyone who edits thus month really. The Solar Dragon 16:47, June 1, 2010 (UTC)

Why's that? Not many people editing, or something? Effluvium talk contributions email 16:49, June 1, 2010 (UTC)

Not at all. More people to vote for. As long as they edit for more than a day, I will probably add them for a wider range of people to vote for. It installs confidence as well. The Solar Dragon 16:53, June 1, 2010 (UTC)

Oh, OK. I get it. So, have we switched to this new voting method for good now? Or are we going to revert to our old voting ways? Effluvium talk contributions email 17:00, June 1, 2010 (UTC)

If it works, then we will use it. if not, we will revert to our old way. The Solar Dragon 17:04, June 1, 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for the advice. Will keep that in mind.

You're welcome. Great to have a new member here. The Solar Dragon 18:28, June 2, 2010 (UTC)

How do you make friends on this wiki. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ddear (talk • contribs) 05:23, June 3, 2010

Firstly, please add " ~~~~ " after each post on a talk page. Second of all, this isn't Youtube or Facebook, this is an online encyclopedia, so we don't have a "friends" function. We're all a part of a community anyway.

Ldude said it for me. The Solar Dragon 05:59, June 3, 2010 (UTC)

Episodes

Hi, I was just wondering if the first paragraph on an episode (with info on writers, airdate, director etc) is really needed, seeing as all that information is present in the infobox? Also, the Manual of Style does not mention these paragraphs (to my knowledge anyway!) but simply asks for a brief summary of the plot. Thanks for that! :) Effluvium talk contributions email 21:38, June 3, 2010 (UTC)

I would say a brief introduction to the episode, Episode X of season X would be wanted. However, nothing else is necessary. A brief summary of the plot, also any major changes should be mentioned, new recurring character, death, etc. Should be mentioned. The Solar Dragon 21:40, June 3, 2010 (UTC)

OK. Thanks for getting back to me! Effluvium talk contributions email 21:46, June 3, 2010 (UTC)

Warning?

Hi, I was a little shocked to see that I have a warning?! I don't understand exactly what've I done wrong and I've in no way vandalised the wiki in such way. If you could tell me what I have done wrong, I'd be very grateful. But I think the warning was unnecessary. Thanks! Effluvium talk contributions email 10:05, June 4, 2010 (UTC)

According to Smiley12, it had something to do with me editing Homer's age? Even so, if the age or information was incorrect, it shouldn'tof resulted in a warning. I'm still confused over the whole thing though... Effluvium talk contributions email 10:32, June 4, 2010 (UTC)

Rod

Mine was not exactly a duplicate, I converted it, cleaned it, made it transparent, and removed the water mark. And about the skin on the Ben 10 wiki, I need permission with the other admins to change it. --Renzo493 14:35, June 5, 2010 (UTC)

If that is the case, you should have uploaded it under the same file name as it was basically the same picture. Feel free to replace the existing image with it. The Solar Dragon 14:32, June 5, 2010 (UTC)

But mine is .png and I don't think jpgs can have transparent background so I'm gonna upload it Flanders_rod.png? --Renzo493 15:05, June 5, 2010

Upload it over the old version. It works. The Solar Dragon 14:49, June 5, 2010 (UTC)

Sideshow Bob Template

Hi, do we prehaps a template that contains all the Sideshow Bob episodes, such as the one we have for Krusty. If we don't, could I create one? There is a more than decent one which can be viewed on Wikipedia. Thanks! Effluvium talk contributions email 12:04, June 6, 2010 (UTC)

Yeah, sure. Go ahead. The Solar Dragon 12:06, June 6, 2010 (UTC)

Right. Finished. Here's the template. Hope your OK with it! :) Effluvium talk contributions email 12:20, June 6, 2010 (UTC)

Cool. We should make one for each character actually. The Solar Dragon 12:35, June 6, 2010 (UTC)

Yeah. That was what I was thinking. I'll try and get around to making a few later. Effluvium talk contributions email 12:38, June 6, 2010 (UTC)

Also, see Forum:New Episode Categories and leave your input please if you don't mind. The Solar Dragon 12:40, June 6, 2010 (UTC)

Colour Signature?

Hi - I'm really sorry, but how do you put the colours on the name? I can't find a hint of how to do it...—Preceding unsigned comment added by I ish ur nightmare (talk • contribs)

well i could help you just tell me what color you want or solar either of us can do it. ScarletScarabX (Talk) 17:10, June 6, 2010 (UTC) then we can make one we need a color to make it

I left him a message on hit talk page. The Solar Dragon 17:10, June 6, 2010 (UTC)

Treehouse of Horror Template

Hi, could I create a template (similar to the Sideshow Bob one I made the other day) that lists all the different Treehouse of Horror episodes? Thanks! Effluvium talk contributions email 15:14, June 7, 2010 (UTC)

Look. You don't have to ask me in future. Feel free to create any templates you want. The Solar Dragon 15:22, June 7, 2010 (UTC)

OK. Thanks for telling me! Effluvium talk contributions email 16:19, June 7, 2010 (UTC)

speculation ?

hello solar dragon. i am wondering if im allowed to use speculation on this website becuse i relly need to know before i add any theroys on characters or places . if you dont allow speculation on this site i understand completely and if you do id greatly apreciate it . thank you and please answer as soon as you can . —Preceding unsigned comment added by Casecr (talk • contribs) 17:01, June 7, 2010

No. Speculation belongs in the Forum. Feel free to add any speculation you want there. The Solar Dragon 16:11, June 7, 2010 (UTC)

Great job

I haven't visited the site in a while, but it appears to be in much better shape than it was when I left it, and you have done a great job in helping to maintain it. There appear to be more active and dedicated users, which really helps. It will be a while before this wikia is anywhere near the standard set by Lostpedia, but I must say it's starting to get on the right path. -- Brian McClure 22:20, June 7, 2010 (UTC)

Thank you. I have tried my best to get this site working properly and fully up and running. Appreciate the compliment. The Solar Dragon 05:06, June 8, 2010 (UTC)

Is there a bot at this wikia? I think some of the categories need overhauling, but it would take a long time to do manually. I've been looking through Category:Characters voiced by guest stars, which is very poorly defined and contains several guests who appeared as themselves. There is also Category:Guest Stars. I think that one needs to be renamed to "Guest stars". Then a new Category:Self-voicing guest stars needs to be created. So every guest star would go in "Guest stars". Then, for the in-universe aspect, guest stars who appeared as themselves would go in the self-voicing category. -- Brian McClure 22:18, June 8, 2010 (UTC)

I don't know, most likely not. I'll probably continue my trend of popping by every now and then. -- Brian McClure 14:19, June 9, 2010 (UTC)

Quitting

I have just lost interest in the Simpsons as a whole. I will also be starting school again soon so I will not have as much time to edit.

Non-canon

Hi, can the non-canon template be placed at the top of a Treehouse of Horror episode. Or is the template only for the non-canon sections on characters pages? Thanks! Effluvium talk contributions email 17:32, June 10, 2010 (UTC)
