Your question

If you want text to be in the center of the page (or in this case, the infobox), then you need to type <center> Text </center>. this is one of many HyperText Markup Language codes that are compatible with this wiki. - - Smiley 12 was here at 04:59, April 15, 2010 (UTC)

I have edited the location infobox template so it now automatically does this. - - Smiley 12 was here at 05:09, April 15, 2010 (UTC)

Thank you. I don't know how to edit infoboxes and that kind of things. TheHomer 23:36, April 15, 2010 (UTC)

Image Licensing

You have recently uploaded the image File:The Bart Wants What It Wants.png, to this wiki; however, you did not add a licensing tag to it. Every image on Wikisimpsons must have the correct copyright status provided in the image's description, otherwise it may be deleted. There are licensing templates provided which can be placed on the page to provide copyright status. The templates can be used through the drop down menus which you will find on the upload screen. See Wikisimpsons:Images for more information.Thank you.☆The Solar Dragon ^(Talk)☆ 05:20, April 22, 2010 (UTC)

Oh, sorry! I didn't know that. You see, it is not a TV screenshot. I took the picture from a video on YouTube. Is there any cpyright on that? If there is, please tell me the correct template. — ^TheHomer ^{(Talk • Contributions)} 16:40, April 22, 2010 (UTC)

Just use {{Image Fox|source=[[Episode name]]|shows=What the image shows}} ☆The Solar Dragon ^(Talk)☆ 16:51, April 22, 2010 (UTC)

Ultrahouse Pictures

You rock! Thanks for adding the Ultrahouse pictures. Mythigator 01:38, April 30, 2010 (UTC)

You're welcome. For me, uploading pictures is really easy. — ^TheHomer ^{(Talk • Contributions)}17:17, April 30, 2010 (UTC)

Uploading isn't a huge deal; for me, it's getting the pictures in the first place. Do you know of any free software that'll let you do screen grabs from DVDs? -- Mythigator 01:29, May 28, 2010 (UTC)

Oh, I hadn't seen your comment. And... no, I don't, sorry. I just get the pictures from videos (since I don't know how to take screenshots from TV). — ^TheHomer ^{(Talk • Contributions)} 17:26, May 28, 2010 (UTC)

Image Licensing 2

You have recently uploaded the image File:Shadow of the Colossal Donut.png, to this wiki; however, you did not add a licensing tag to it. Every image on Wikisimpsons must have the correct copyright status provided in the image's description within a day, otherwise it will be deleted. There are licensing templates provided which can be placed on the page to provide copyright status. The templates can be used through the drop down menus which you will find on the upload screen. See Wikisimpsons:Images for more information.Thank you.☆The Solar Dragon ^(Talk)☆ 06:05, May 4, 2010 (UTC)

Video?

I just want to know a very little thing. When I added a category to Evergreen Terrace, in the "latest activity" box it appeared as a "video added". Why? — ^TheHomer ^{(Talk • Contributions)} 21:40, May 11, 2010 (UTC)

Forget it. It disappeared. — ^TheHomer ^{(Talk • Contributions)} 21:55, May 11, 2010 (UTC)

It just does that when you categorize something, nothing unusual --Smiley 12 was here at 05:26, May 17, 2010 (UTC)

Problem Reporting

The Problem reporting link is at the bottom of an article, it has a red circle with an exclamation mark before it. Under 'View Random Page', and above 'Share'. If you still can't find it (you should be able to) then use 'Ctrl + F'. --Smiley 12 was here at 05:26, May 17, 2010 (UTC)ç

Oh, I should've seen it. Thanks. — ^TheHomer ^{(Talk • Contributions)} 18:54, May 17, 2010 (UTC)

Rollback Nomination

Hi, I have nominated you for rollback and you have to accept the nomination. Please do so under the Comments section, unless you don't want the rights that is in which case, feel free to decline the nomination under the same place. Link is here ☆The Solar Dragon ^(Talk)☆ 20:25, May 27, 2010 (UTC)

Nice work on Treehouse of Horror XVI. -- Mythigator 01:30, May 28, 2010 (UTC)

Thank you. — ^TheHomer ^{(Talk • Contributions)} 17:17, May 28, 2010 (UTC)

Signature

Hi, do you think you could help me out? I've been trying to make a custom signature, which can be seen here - User:Effluvium/sig - but I cannot get it to me my signature. I've seen that you created a custom signature (User:TheHomer/sig), and I was wondering if you could tell me how to set my signature actually as my signature. I'd be very grateful. Thanks! Effluvium 16:28, May 29, 2010 (UTC)

If you just want your signature in a page, use {{User:Effluvium/sig}} and then five (not four) tildes (~~~~~). If what you want is make all of your signatures in all of the talk pages you have signed before to change to your costume signature, then I don't know how. If you want to put your signature without using {{User:Effluvium/sig}}, I think you have to go to your preferences and type your custom signature in the signature box. I'm not so sure so I'll try with my signature. If I discover it, I'll tell you. — ^TheHomer ^{(Talk • Contributions)} 17:17, May 29, 2010 (UTC)

Thanks so much for your help! Effluvium 17:21, May 29, 2010 (UTC)

No problem. Wait... what did you wanted to do? Because I didn't understand so much what you wanted. I discovered that by typing your custom signature (with preformatted text, like editing a normal page) in the signature box in your preferences, you just have to put ~~~~ in a page so your custom signature appears, without putting {{User:Effluvium/sig}}. Anyway, no problem. — ^TheHomer 17:31, May 29, 2010 (UTC)

Wikisimpsons:Signature should help you --Smiley 12 was here at 21:33, May 29, 2010 (UTC)

OK. Thanks for the help! I've got it working now. Thanks again! Effluvium talk contributions email 22:06, May 29, 2010 (UTC)

Matt Groening (Character)

Hi, thanks for sorting out that page for me. I made it this morning in a bit of a rush and didn't get to finish it off. Thanks! Effluvium talk contributions email 19:48, May 31, 2010 (UTC)

You're welcome. — ^TheHomer 19:50, May 31, 2010 (UTC)

Oh, yeah! Thank you and the people who voted for me. — ^TheHomer 19:44, June 3, 2010 (UTC)

Sorry for unnescesary rollbacks

Sorry, it's my fault: I pressed the buttons by accident, it was a mistake... a double mistake, I did it twice. I'm sorry! — ^TheHomer 22:40, June 4, 2010 (UTC)

That's Okay, I sometimes accidentally do that as well --Smiley 12 was here at 22:48, June 4, 2010 (UTC)

Good to know I'm not the only one. I'll try not to do it anymore. — ^TheHomer 23:22, June 4, 2010 (UTC)

Peter Griffin

Hi. Thanks for sorting out Peter Griffins page, after it was vandalized. I have told the user that his edit may be considered vandalism by some. So I have given him an unoffical warning. Thanks! Effluvium talk contributions email 18:26, June 12, 2010 (UTC)

You're welcome. I didn't left a warning on his talk page because I wasn't sure if that was vandalism or some other thing. — ^TheHomer ^{(Talk • Contributions)} 18:28, June 12, 2010 (UTC)

OK. Well, I left him a little message just telling him that it may be counted as vandalism if it continues. Thanks for that! Effluvium talk contributions email 18:35, June 12, 2010 (UTC)

Tagging pages for deletion

Hello, I've noticed that you have tagged several pages for deletion, which is great. However, when you add the delete tag, could you please leave whatever content is in there, even if it's blatant vandalism? It makes things easier for us to assess. For example, with Characters in the Simpsons Hit and Run, there was a redirect there. You removed the redirect and said it should be deleted because there was no content. Next time, just say "useless redirect". -- Brian McClure 21:30, June 12, 2010 (UTC)

OK, I know I should have done that. Sorry, I will do it next time I tag pages for deletion. — ^TheHomer ^{(Talk • Contributions)} 21:45, June 12, 2010 (UTC)

Orphaned pages

I'm ready if you want it done now. My bot will also do a general clean up to the pages. If you want I can do other things as well. Manyman ^(Talk) 06:26, July 5, 2010 (UTC)

No problem :D Manyman ^(Talk) 21:57, July 5, 2010 (UTC)

Userboxes

Hi, do you mind if I make the user boxes on your user page into templates for use on other user pages? They are pretty good I feel. Thanks, ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 17:36, July 26, 2010 (UTC)

Good idea! I was thinking on turning them into templates, but then I saw Template:Userboxes already existed (although those userboxes aren't actually... pretty). — ^TheHomer ^{(Talk • Contributions)} 17:39, July 26, 2010 (UTC)

Problem report

Hello, you reported that there was a problem on Homer Badman, could you please clarify? -- Brian McClure 23:56, August 1, 2010 (UTC)

The problem is that there is no content in the page. I'm a fool, I sometimes edit Spanish wikias because I'm very good at Spanish. But going from English, Spanish, English, Spanish made me forget this is an English wikia so I wrote the comment in Spanish. Again, I'm a fool. :) — ^TheHomer ^{(Talk • Contributions)} 00:06, August 2, 2010 (UTC)

New guy problems

I want to know two things:

how to you make those little boxes about yourself. You know, the ones that say, This user is a student, etc.

How do you make bages for wikias?KevlarNinja 13:59, August 2, 2010 (UTC)

Re:Bages

No, I meant that this is the only wiki with bages, and I want to know how to make bages for other wikis.KevlarNinja 14:08, August 2, 2010 (UTC)

This is not the only wiki with badges. If you want badges for other wikis, I think you have to contact wikia and tell them you want achievements enabled for your wiki. — ^TheHomer ^{(Talk • Contributions)} 14:14, August 2, 2010 (UTC)

How do you get Caterer? I made an edit on a cast and crew page TheSimpsons ^Talk 16:34, August 5, 2010 (UTC)

Re: Eye removal

You said something about me removing Ralph's eyes. Well, if you're looking for a reason, I'll give it to you.

a) The picture is too big, and b) Let me be short and honest: I don't like it. Sorry if I offend you. After all, you put it there, right?

List of episodes

I am guessing it is something to do with your templates that is causing this problem. If you can't fix this, I would suggest asking at Community Central. ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 20:34, August 11, 2010 (UTC)

Yeah, I'll check them. — ^TheHomer ^{(Talk • Contributions)} 20:38, August 11, 2010 (UTC)

I fixed it! The problem wasn't the templates but a couple of missing |} at the bottom of each table. — ^TheHomer ^{(Talk • Contributions)} 20:42, August 11, 2010 (UTC)

Comprehensive article main page template

Hi, Since you made this and set it up, would you like to be in charge of it? I just have one question, how often will you update it? Once a month with the other main page stuff or differently, like maybe twice a month?

Thanks, ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 14:57, September 3, 2010 (UTC)

I think it should be once a month. And I was going to change it, but I don't know what's this month's comprehensive article. Tell me and I'll do it. — ^TheHomer ^{(Talk • Contributions)} 17:05, September 3, 2010 (UTC)

It can be any one that hasn't been featured yet from the category. ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 17:10, September 3, 2010 (UTC)

I made it for Shapes, but after I checked, this month's is Fort Fragg, since it was categorized today. Do I change it? — ^TheHomer ^{(Talk • Contributions)} 17:35, September 3, 2010 (UTC)

It doesn't matter. Multiple can be added a month so just choose a random one if you want. ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 18:03, September 3, 2010 (UTC)

Template: News

Hi. Instead of putting Site News in the News section, like you said, I think we should put it in the sitenotice. What do you think? Effluvium 17:53, September 14, 2010 (UTC)

Yeah, the sitenotice would be better. We could add a bigger box under, over or next to the other three or replace the "IRC" box. — ^TheHomer ^{(Talk • Contributions)} 18:44, September 14, 2010 (UTC)

THe IRC box is to try and attract people to IRC, although it doesn't really work (why don't I ever see you there). So, we could replace it. We can't make it more than two lines long (something that I have stretched a bit) so that making a new box or adding something underneath is out of the question. Most wikis merge wiki news and subject news together though. ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 19:02, September 14, 2010 (UTC)

Ok then I'll replace that box. Also, I think I'll go to the IRC. — ^TheHomer ^{(Talk • Contributions)} 20:20, September 14, 2010 (UTC)

Thanks

Much oblidged. Gran2 09:53, September 23, 2010 (UTC)

Homepage

Hi, I was just thinking about how we could make the homepage better...and one way would be to have the "Featured article", "News", "Featured Video" sections etc to be done in a Simpsons font, like the "Wikia" logo in the top-left-hand corner of the screen. What do you think? I think it would look great! Effluvium 21:02, September 23, 2010 (UTC)

Yeah, it would look good. Smiley did the wikia logo, we should ask him to do it. — ^TheHomer ^{(Talk • Contributions)} 22:46, September 23, 2010 (UTC)
