I still don't get the signature. TheSimpsons 15:07, July 31, 2010 (UTC)

<span style="font-family:FONT"></span> = What type of font. <span style="color:COLOUR"></span> = Colour. In your preferences, you need to add the code to the box that says signature and tick the box to use custom signature. If you tell me what you want, I will do it for you. ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 15:24, July 31, 2010 (UTC)

Ok. Thanks. What is the boldest font you have? Ill use that. Well, my The part would look good in Red, Simpsons would look good in blue. Oh, and can my signature have a talk page link? TheSimpsons 15:38, July 31, 2010 (UTC) is soon to be changed.

Double thanks.

TheSimpsons 15:38, July 31, 2010 (UTC)

Ok, I will guess Elephant might be bold enough, or would you like the normal font, just for me to make it bold? ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 15:44, July 31, 2010 (UTC)
What colour do you want the talk link then? ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 15:49, July 31, 2010 (UTC)

Yellow

~~!~~ TheSimpsons 15:52, July 31, 2010 (UTC)


OK, add this code: <span style="font-family:Elephant">[[User:TheSimpsons|'''<span style="color:red">The</span><span style="color:blue">Simpsons</span>''']] <sup>[[User talk:TheSimpsons|'''<span style="color:gold">Talk'''</span>]]</sup></span> to the box in this page. ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 15:54, July 31, 2010 (UTC)

It is turning out as a big code. <span style="font-family:Elephant">[[User:TheSimpsons|'''<span style="color:red">The</span><span style="color:blue">Simpsons</span>''']] <sup>[[User talk:TheSimpsons|'''<span style="color:gold">Talk'''</span>]]</sup></span> 16:04, July 31, 2010 (UTC)

Place the code exactly as it is copied from the page, not the edit screen:
<span style="font-family:Elephant">[[User:TheSimpsons|'''<span style="color:red">The</span><span style="color:blue">Simpsons</span>''']] <sup>[[User talk:TheSimpsons|'''<span style="color:gold">Talk'''</span>]]</sup></span
The Solar Dragon☆ 16:11, July 31, 2010 (UTC)

It is an invalid raw signature, check html tags. <span style="font-family:Elephant">[[User:TheSimpsons|'''<span style="color:red">The</span><span style="color:blue">Simpsons</span>''']] <sup>[[User talk:TheSimpsons|'''<span style="color:gold">Talk'''</span>]]</sup></span> 16:14, July 31, 2010 (UTC)

It works fine. I tried it myself. ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 16:18, July 31, 2010 (UTC)

My New Signature- <span style="font-family:Elephant">[[User:TheSimpsons|'''<span style="color:red">The</span><span style="color:blue">Simpsons</span>''']] <sup>[[User talk:TheSimpsons|'''<span style="color:gold">Talk'''</span>]]</sup></span 17:44, July 31, 2010 (UTC)

It is just a code with a link. <span style="font-family:Elephant">[[User:TheSimpsons|'''<span style="color:red">The</span><span style="color:blue">Simpsons</span>''']] <sup>[[User talk:TheSimpsons|'''<span style="color:gold">Talk'''</span>]]</sup></span 17:45, July 31, 2010 (UTC)

OK then, email me your password and I will try it for you. That is only if you want and if you trust me. ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 17:53, July 31, 2010 (UTC)
Wait, I've seen what's wrong with it. You are missing a > off the end. ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 17:55, July 31, 2010 (UTC)

Spoilers

I think we should adopt a new spoiler policy, similar to the one Lostpedia used to have. Before the show ended, their policy was that there should be no spoilers at all, unless they were officially confirmed by an ABC press release. Obviously, they are two completely different shows, but it wouldn't hurt to adopt a similar policy. My main concern is all of the pages that are created for future guest stars, characters and episodes. At this point, they're just magnets for vandalism, so they should be deleted, then recreated once officially confirmed at FoxFlash. -- Brian McClure 13:40, August 1, 2010 (UTC)

Well, at the moment, they are semi-protected although this could be moved up to a full protection. Wikipedia has confirmed these titles too, I know Wikipedia is not a definite source but anyway, if the source is good enough for them, it is good enough for us. Although, there are some episodes we have articles for that aren't on Wikipedia which I will have to look into. Anyway, as long as they are semi-protected, this should deter vandalism. ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 13:44, August 1, 2010 (UTC)
Wikipedia has them listed, but they don't have pages for them. They are also different from us because they look at things from an out of universe perspective. In universe, that stuff hasn't happened yet. -- Brian McClure 13:50, August 1, 2010 (UTC)
Yeah I know. There were other pages which must have been deleted by now as they were unconfirmed, which was what I was on about. I will be looking for sources in future and if there is not a source, add the {{Disputed}} tag for a week. If no source has been added, I will delete it. How does that sound? Also, with semi-protected articles, there will be a lot less vandalism and wild speculation. If we still get users adding unconfirmed things, I will fully protect the page. ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 13:54, August 1, 2010 (UTC)

Sounds great. <span style="font-family:Elephant">[[User:TheSimpsons|'''<span style="color:red">The</span><span style="color:blue">Simpsons</span>''']] <sup>[[User talk:TheSimpsons|'''<span style="color:gold">Talk'''</span>]]</sup></span> 14:38, August 1, 2010 (UTC)

My signature again? <span style="font-family:Elephant">[[User:TheSimpsons|'''<span style="color:red">The</span><span style="color:blue">Simpsons</span>''']] <sup>[[User talk:TheSimpsons|'''<span style="color:gold">Talk'''</span>]]</sup></span> 14:39, August 1, 2010 (UTC)

OK then, email me your password and I will try it for you. That is only if you want and if you trust me. ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 14:46, August 1, 2010 (UTC)

Who to nominate, who to nominate. —Preceding unsigned comment added by TheSimpsons (talkcontribs) 14:44, August 1, 2010

Is there any other way to do this? I will email you possibly, I trust you, but is there any other thing to do? <span style="font-family:Elephant">[[User:TheSimpsons|'''<span style="color:red">The</span><span style="color:blue">Simpsons</span>''']] <sup>[[User talk:TheSimpsons|'''<span style="color:gold">Talk'''</span>]]</sup></span> 14:55, August 1, 2010 (UTC)

I don't think so. You can change your password again afterwards if you want anyway. ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 15:00, August 1, 2010 (UTC)

I have not confirmed my email. It takes forever to get the code. <span style="font-family:Elephant">[[User:TheSimpsons|'''<span style="color:red">The</span><span style="color:blue">Simpsons</span>''']] <sup>[[User talk:TheSimpsons|'''<span style="color:gold">Talk'''</span>]]</sup></span> 19:35, August 1, 2010 (UTC)

OK then, come on IRC and tell me there then. It is a bit more open but it should only be me and you online. ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 19:42, August 1, 2010 (UTC)

How about if i tell you my password here and you delete the comment? —Preceding unsigned comment added by TheSimpsons (talkcontribs) 20:13, August 1, 2010

Ok then. Make it quick. There are a few risks but if it is quick, no one will know. ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 20:14, August 1, 2010 (UTC)
They will know as they can check the history. If you are going to post password change it afterwords. Kingcjc 20:31, August 1, 2010 (UTC)
we did it over IRC. ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 20:32, August 1, 2010 (UTC)

Would I make a good rollback? I am pretty sure I qualify. TheSimpsons Talk 23:39, August 1, 2010 (UTC)

I haven't seen you revert any vandalism at all. if you do that a few times, I will consider it. ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 06:31, August 2, 2010 (UTC)
What's the difference between rollback power and just clicking the "undo" button on the pages history? Bshardy 03:00, August 3, 2010 (UTC)

Vandlisim

Maby you should protect the Matt Groening page from anonymous edits. Someone just replaced the whole thing with "HAHA your article is gone" Bshardy 18:14, August 2, 2010 (UTC)
