IRC

FYI; Me, Solar and AleWi are on IRC.--Cook879 17:35, 23 March 2012 (EDT)

I'll be there! --Fred (Talk • Contribs.) 17:36, 23 March 2012 (EDT)

You gonna go there? We might actually have something to talk about, for once. |

| Talk | Contributions | Edit count | 21:24, 30 March 2012 (EDT)

Yes, sir. Mr. President, sir! --Fred (Talk • Contribs.) 21:26, 30 March 2012 (EDT)

I'm a president? |

Little Britain quote. --Fred (Talk • Contribs. • Editcount) 09:27, 10 April 2012 (EDT)

I'm sorry if this conflicts you, but can you go on, please? I'll be there. --Fred (Talk • Contribs. • Editcount) 09:27, 10 April 2012 (EDT)

Products

Hey, nice job with all those product/food articles. :D If I may say something, though, you shouldn't use the "company" template on product articles, because they are two different things. Like how Oreo cookies are the product, but Mr. Christie is the company. Since we don't have a fictional product template, a thumbnail does just fine. --Nick97 ^{(talk ~ contribs)} 19:37, 24 March 2012 (EDT)

Or, we could make a product template.--Cook879 19:38, 24 March 2012 (EDT)

Oh, okay. Thank you. --Fred (Talk • Contribs.) 19:41, 24 March 2012 (EDT)

Also, I know the difference. I just added company for some reason. --Fred (Talk • Contribs.) 07:23, 4 April 2012 (EDT)

STOP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hardy ever have summaries. Even if, users (me and Cook) take it away. You're the boss though. --Fred (Talk • Contribs.) 03:12, 25 March 2012 (EDT)

Now there's going to be a bit of a problem. :| |

| Talk | Contributions | Edit count | 03:14, 25 March 2012 (EDT)

I'm thinking of a way to add the source into the image file, maybe through the license template. I plan to try adding this at some point.--Cook879 14:22, 25 March 2012 (EDT)

What's that supposed to mean? |

| Talk | Contributions | Edit count | 14:23, 25 March 2012 (EDT)

You know we were (somewhere) discussing adding the source of the image, i.e. the episode name, onto images. I plan to add that in, most likely in the template. Haven't got time to try anything now.--Cook879 17:00, 25 March 2012 (EDT)

That is a good idea though, Cook. Sorry for this Randomno. Also, Cook, I didn't plan on getting you involved. Again, sorry. --Fred (Talk • Contribs.) 01:07, 27 March 2012 (EDT)

Category:Images - Objects

Hey - Nice work on the images. However I question your use of Category:Images - Objects. Personally I think it should be used for objects we're making articles for, like the food products. Otherwise it would apply for nearly all images. Also, I think media should be restricted to its respective category, and not overlap with objects. Don't worry about going back and editing them all, I'll cover that with adding sources to images.--Cook879 14:43, 25 March 2012 (EDT)

True. Thank you for this, Cook. --Fred (Talk • Contribs.) 00:49, 26 March 2012 (EDT)

User:Will k/workbench

Hi, as you're the only other active person right now, and I'm a bit tired out myself, do you think you could add any part of http://www.simpsoncrazy.com/ukcuts to Will k's workbench? Thanks, | | Talk | Contributions | Edit count | 21:07, 30 March 2012 (EDT)

Umm... Okay? --Fred (Talk • Contribs.) 21:09, 30 March 2012 (EDT)

What do you mean? --Fred (Talk • Contribs.) 21:11, 30 March 2012 (EDT)

Don't worry. I think I know. --Fred (Talk • Contribs.) 21:12, 30 March 2012 (EDT)

You've conflicted me twice now... Anyway, this is what I just put:

Just, if you can, add any bad language stated on their. So, for example, you could do "The Heartbroke Kid", using the quote, "What are ya staring at, ya bastards?".

Thanks, |

| Talk | Contributions | Edit count | 21:14, 30 March 2012 (EDT)

Sorry about the conflicting, Randomno. At first I didn't know what I was doing. It was showing stuff about 9/11. Then I realised. --Fred (Talk • Contribs.) 04:05, 2 April 2012 (EDT)

This is just a joke award, but you do have the lowest percentage of main namespace editors out of all the regular editors. Happy non-main namespace editing! |

| Talk | Contributions | Edit count | 12:02, 5 April 2012 (EDT)

Thank you, Randomno.... --Fred (Talk • Contribs. • Editcount) 18:10, 5 April 2012 (EDT)

Not my favourite award. --Fred (Talk • Contribs. • Editcount) 06:52, 7 April 2012 (EDT)

My user sub-pages talk pages

Okay. I'll be more then happy to do if wanted. --Fred (Talk • Contribs. • Editcount) 09:26, 10 April 2012 (EDT)

Don't waste your time, I'll bot it Frederick.--Cook879 11:04, 10 April 2012 (EDT)

Thanks, Cook. --Fred (Talk • Contribs. • Editcount) 11:05, 10 April 2012 (EDT)

Wikipedialink

Just to let you know, {{Wikipedialink}} doesn't need the name if it's the same as the article, as it uses {{PAGENAME}}.

Okay. Does this mean I can do it on guest star pages? --Fred (Talk • Contribs. • Editcount) 11:28, 10 April 2012 (EDT)

As long as their page has the same name, then yeah, you can. If you want, I'll see if I can use my bot, to help, though I know it can't be automated will be quicker than you doing it by hand.--Cook879 11:31, 10 April 2012 (EDT)

Really? That would be great! Thanks, Cook. --Fred (Talk • Contribs. • Editcount) 11:33, 10 April 2012 (EDT)

Hmm...

I don't know how, but you have about 6,000 more edits than me, and you only joined two months before me. I worked out that on average, every day, you do 101.2 (with a load of other decimals) edits a day. :| | | Talk | Contributions | Edit count | 11:35, 12 April 2012 (EDT)

Okay? --Fred (Talk • Contribs. • Editcount) 19:44, 12 April 2012 (EDT)

Is this a good thing? --Fred (Talk • Contribs. • Editcount) 08:55, 13 April 2012 (EDT)

No, it's a bad thing. Get out the house more. |

| Talk | Contributions | Edit count | 07:30, 15 April 2012 (EDT)

Meh. --Fred (Talk • Contribs. • Editcount) 00:44, 16 April 2012 (EDT)

Channel 5

OK, Frederick, I have NEVER seen Channel 5 broadcast The Simpsons. Channel 4 fought Channel 5 to get the show, and Channel 4 won. I don't know how you've got the idea that Channel 5 broadcasts The Simpsons. ~ Phinbart (talk • contribs) 04:16, 15 April 2012 (EDT)

Sorry, Phinbart. It was a misunderstanding. --Fred (Talk • Contribs. • Editcount) 04:18, 15 April 2012 (EDT)

Mark Twain

http://simpsonswiki.net/w/index.php?title=Special%3ASearch&profile=advanced&search=Mark+Twain&fulltext=Search&ns0=1&redirs=1&profile=advanced Happy editing! | | Talk | Contributions | Edit count | 06:25, 15 April 2012 (EDT)

NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Come on! --Fred (Talk • Contribs. • Editcount) 06:28, 15 April 2012 (EDT)

:P |

| Talk | Contributions | Edit count | 06:49, 15 April 2012 (EDT)

What is that supposed to imply? --Fred (Talk • Contribs. • Editcount) 06:50, 15 April 2012 (EDT)

Okay, more XD. |

| Talk | Contributions | Edit count | 06:53, 15 April 2012 (EDT)

You can add the references. --Fred (Talk • Contribs. • Editcount) 06:53, 15 April 2012 (EDT)

Oh, yeah, that is the only times Mark Twain have appeared. The others are just references, Randomno. --Fred (Talk • Contribs. • Editcount) 06:58, 15 April 2012 (EDT)

I know, I worked that out. I need to finish my other WIPs and stuff, though, before I start another one. |

| Talk | Contributions | Edit count | 07:00, 15 April 2012 (EDT)

CONFLICT!!!!!!!!! |

| Talk | Contributions | Edit count | 07:00, 15 April 2012 (EDT)

Randomno, conflicting is something that you need to live with. --Fred (Talk • Contribs. • Editcount) 07:02, 15 April 2012 (EDT)

I never said I was annoyed or angry. I just wrote "CONFLICT!!!!!!!!!". |

| Talk | Contributions | Edit count | 07:04, 15 April 2012 (EDT)

Oh, whatever, Randomno. --Fred (Talk • Contribs. • Editcount) 07:05, 15 April 2012 (EDT)

Guest star images

Hi, when having images of guest stars, we would prefer to have more up to date images rather than images of them when they were younger and in black and white. That is why I reverted the new image of Dick Clark you uploaded. Thanks, The Solar Dragon 04:39, 19 April 2012 (EDT)

I understand, but that image was pretty poor, you know? --Fred (Talk • Contribs. • Editcount) 05:57, 19 April 2012 (EDT)

It's still good enough for us and not black and white though, which I prefer. The Solar Dragon ^{(Talk - Contribs.)} 06:05, 19 April 2012 (EDT)

Yeah, I guess so. Sorry 'bout that, mate. --Fred (Talk • Contribs. • Editcount) 06:08, 19 April 2012 (EDT)

Full names

Hmmm. Redirecting looks... "tacky". --Fred (Talk • Contribs. • Editcount) 03:53, 29 April 2012 (EDT)

Hang on. What do you mean? --Fred (Talk • Contribs. • Editcount) 05:57, 30 April 2012 (EDT)

I believe that Randomno is referring to making a first-name link to, say, Homer's article by using [[Homer Simpson|Homer]] rather than using the redirect [[Homer]]. (Randomno, please feel free to correct me if I'm misstating what you're talking about.) However tacky the redirects may look, it is preferred to use them instead of the "full name-vertical bar-first name" pattern. According to Solar Dragon, the pages load faster when you use the redirects. And from the perspective of typing them up, I can say that it's a lot easier to use the redirects where possible. So, since the redirects work better and they're easier to type, why not save yourself a little work and go ahead and use them? -- Mythigator 09:03, 30 April 2012 (EDT)
