Wikisimpsons - The Simpsons Wiki
Revision as of 10:06, November 21, 2010 by Jedimca0 (talk) (Removed staff tag.)

Somebody needs to take care of the vandalism done by User:I'm better than you, I took care of what was done by User:I am the Wiki Walrus! they could be the same guy but either way they should be blocked. Thai420 04:08, 5 April 2006 (UTC)

Done and done - we may need to consider a range block if this continues. I've also made you an admin here, reverting is a lot easier with rollback! -- sannse (talk) 09:01, 5 April 2006 (UTC)
Thanks thats the only reason I didn't take care of them yesterday, this should make things alot easier. A range block sounds like a good idea cause i've stoped the guy twice today alone. Thai420 01:06, 6 April 2006 (UTC)


Licensing

I think we need to add an appropriate license to the images. Something that generalized copyrighted media should work. I have a bot if necessary, but this is something we need to do. Joey - Talk 06:52, 31 January 2009 (UTC)

We have the licenses such as From an episode, copyright of Fox etc... but no one uses them..

Current Licenses'

Great, then if you just give me the call code Template:BLAH for the most likely template then I will be happy to add it to all the images. Unless someone has an objection of course? Thanks. Joey - Talk Contribs 23:46, 31 January 2009 (UTC)

call code? kingcjc 13:57, 1 February 2009 (UTC)

Name. Joey - Talk

nearly all would probably be {{Image Fox}} kingcjc 22:01, 1 February 2009 (UTC)

Then you have no complaints with me going through all images right now and add that license to them? Joey - Talk 22:03, 1 February 2009 (UTC)

Sure, any thing can be changed if they are not, but probably 97% are. kingcjc 11:45, 2 February 2009 (UTC)

Great, then my bot is on now, and seeing how many images there are, it should take a little while. Feel free to watch my bot spam the Recent Changes. :P Click "Hide Minor Edits" to hide my bots edits, just a tip. Joey - Talk 03:31, 3 February 2009 (UTC)

Switching to the new parser

Hi,

We are currently making preparations for the next wiki software upgrade. While we expect this to have little or no effect on most wikis, it may cause some pages on this wiki to render poorly. To help reduce or eliminate these issues, please see the Central Forums for more details. Thanks - sannse (talk) 13:21, 11 February 2009 (UTC)

We are switching on the 17th.Sgtcook 18:25, 15 February 2009 (UTC)
