Welcome!

Hello, Nick97, and welcome to Wikisimpsons!

Thank you for taking an interest in our wiki. If you have any troubles, feel free to ask questions on any experienced editors' talk page. Also, you could look at a help page.

Here are a few pages to help out new editors such as yourself:

Help pages, your first stop if you need any help
Editing help, in case you have questions on how to properly edit articles
Policy pages - Failure to abide by these will result in consequences.

Please sign your name on talk pages by using four tildes (~~~~). This will automatically produce your name and the date. Signing your comments is important, as it lets other editors know who has posted which comments.

Again, welcome! The Solar Dragon ^{(Talk - Contribs.)} 07:26, 12 July 2011 (UTC)

Welcome!

Hi, just giving you a proper welcome, the above is a template we just add to new users. Thanks for your recent contribs, keep up the good work. Nice to see new users around here Doh5678 (talk) 22:34, 16 July 2011 (UTC)

The Golden Homer Award

Congratulations! For your outstanding service to articles you have been awarded the Golden Homer Award for July 2011!

Feel free to put {{User Golden Homer|The Month and Year}} on your user page.

☆The Solar Dragon ^{(Talk - Contribs.)}☆ 03:55, 1 August 2011 (EDT)

Almost forgot about this. :P Thanks to Doh5678 for nominating me, and everyone who voted for me. I appreciate it! :D Nick97 16:25, 5 August 2011 (EDT)

Would you like to be interviewed?

Would you like to be interviewed for the newsletter? It will go on the Main Page. --Doh5678 (talk) 16:19, 11 August 2011 (EDT)

Sure! Nick97 20:01, 11 August 2011 (EDT)

Everything should be ready now. Go here. Doh5678 (talk) 16:24, 12 August 2011 (EDT)

Moving a page

For future reference, to move a page hover over the arrow next to "view history". It should be the first on the list.--Cook879 06:29, 16 August 2011 (EDT)

Ok, Thanks! --Nick97 09:37, 16 August 2011 (EDT)

RE:Question

For now, make them as they are spelt in the episode, then add a note about it on the page. Then redirect the correct spellings to the typo one (so create "Angus Podgorny's Caper Toss" then create a page called "Angus Podgorny's Caber Toss" with the content "#REDIRECT [[Angus Podgorny's Caper Toss]]".) --Cook879 09:31, 18 August 2011 (EDT)

Talk pages

Hey Nick, great work on the talk pages. Did you notice the boxes at the top when you create the page? The second row is for talk pages and there you will find buttons for Character, Episode, Location, Comic, Crew, Guest Star and Game pages as well as the standard talk page. By clicking on the appropriate button you will add the appropriate project template. Just thought I'd let you know for future reference.--Cook879 09:31, 18 August 2011 (EDT)

Ah, I didn't know those created the project templates. -- Cook879 09:31, 18 August 2011 (EDT)

Editor meeting

If you haven't already seen it in the site notice, there is an editor meeting at 7PM Wikisimpsons time which is 1pm your time. Hope you can make it. --Doh5678 (talk) 11:59, 19 August 2011 (EDT)

Hi, editor meeting is in 5 minutes. Just wondering if you want to join in. Go to here and type #wikisimpsons in the channel, your nick in the nick section and the captcha words and press connect. You don't have to join in but we would like to see you there. Thanks, ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 14:55, 20 August 2011 (EDT)

Sure, I can be there! -- Nick97 15:01, 20 August 2011 (EDT)

Images

Hi, I see you don't really upload images. A little hint to you, there is a website called IWTSO. It allows you to watch episodes online. What you can do is print screen (Prt Sc button) and paste it into Paint and crop it down and upload. You don't have to do this of course but it would be nice if you could. Thanks, ^{(Talk - Contribs.)} 11:04, 13 September 2011 (EDT)

Ok. I didn't actually know how to get the images in the first place. Thanks for the tip! Nick97 18:09, 13 September 2011 (EDT)

Recent edits

Hey Nick97! I've seen your recent edits, and I really like them! Keep it up! Also, to add a bit of sparkle, would you like me to make you a sweet, smart, simple signature? (strange, I didn't even mean to alliterate!) --Will k (Talk ~ Contributions) 02:48, 14 September 2011 (EDT)

Thanks! And sure! Nick97 09:33, 14 September 2011 (EDT)

Here it is!

--Nick97 ^{(talk ~ contribs)}

To use it, place the code on User:Nick97/Signature (or the subpage of your choice; I'll post the code below), then go to your preferences. In the current section (which should be "User profile"), go down to "Signature", and in the given box, type --Nick97 ^{(talk ~ contribs)} (or whatever you chose the page as). Save the page, and voila! Next time you type ~~~~, it'll come out with the signature plus a timestamp! Good luck!

P.S. Here's the code: --[[User:Nick97|'''Nick97''']] ([[User talk:Nick97|'''talk''']] ~ [[Special:Contributions/Nick97|'''contribs''']])

--Will k (Talk ~ Contributions) 02:42, 15 September 2011 (EDT)

Sweet, thanks!

(Is it just me, or did all this text get really tiny?) --Nick97 ^{(talk ~ contribs)} 10:05, 15 September 2011 (EDT)

☆The Silver Homer Award☆

The Silver Homer Award

Congratulations! For your outstanding service to articles you have been awarded the Silver Homer Award for September 2011!

Feel free to put {{User Silver Homer|Month and Year}} on your user page.--The Solar Dragon ^{(Talk - Contribs.)} 06:38, 8 October 2011 (EDT)

Competition prize

Hi, sorry for the delay but I've ordered your prize now so you should get it at some point in the next few weeks. The Solar Dragon ^{(Talk - Contribs.)} 06:38, 8 October 2011 (EDT)

Cool, thanks! I'll look forward to it! --Nick97 ^{(talk ~ contribs)} 21:21, 10 October 2011 (EDT)

IRC

If you happen to still be online, come on IRC! We'll have a jolly good chat ;) --Will k (Talk ~ Contributions) 21:24, 4 November 2011 (EDT)

Props to you

Nice work fixing the IP vandal edits. -- Mythigator 01:18, 7 November 2011 (EST)

Lowercasing

As much as you've been making constructive edits, lowercasing the E in Ep is unecessary, and I'm unsure why you're even doing it. --Will (Talk) 01:01, 14 November 2011 (EST)

Ok, I thought they were supposed to be that way. --Nick97 ^{(talk ~ contribs)} 09:37, 14 November 2011 (EST)

TBH, it really doesn't matter, and so in response, I don't know why you're putting them back as Ep :P.--Cook879 12:53, 14 November 2011 (EST)

Well, I prefer lowercase for some reason so that is what I usually go for. Changing them for the sake of changing them (i.e. making an edit to a page just to change them) is stupid. However, if you're editing a page already, feel free to change the case. But yeah, it doesn't matter too much.

^{(Talk - Contribs.)} 13:16, 14 November 2011 (EST)

:P I always saw Solar Dragon always made them lower case when he added appearances, so I figured they were supposed to be that way. Whatever though, no harm done. --Nick97 ^{(talk ~ contribs)} 18:07, 14 November 2011 (EST)

I apologize if my comment came across as rude :P but yeah, no harm done! --Will (Talk) 00:53, 15 November 2011 (EST)

Location categories

Hi, if a location has only been mentioned in the series, it should only fall under the category Mentioned locations, not One time locations. The One time and Recurring location categories are only for those locations that have made physical appearances in the show. Thanks, The Solar Dragon 05:31, 22 December 2011 (EST)

State

Feel free to use the state field on the town template, and any other appropriate fields (only if mentioned in episode, e.g. population).--Cook879 15:39, 23 December 2011 (EST)

Oh, cool! I didn't know that would work. --Nick97 ^{(talk ~ contribs)} 15:46, 23 December 2011 (EST)

12,000!

You got the 12,000th! Congratulations!--Cook879 18:22, 26 December 2011 (EST)

Thanks! Heh heh, there was no way I was letting Phinbart steal another milestone from me. :P --Nick97 ^{(talk ~ contribs)} 18:34, 26 December 2011 (EST)
