Simpsons Fanon wiki

May I enquire why we're linked to the Simpsons Fanon wiki? I mean, sure it could possibly be a way to attract editors and sure it's a Simpsons related wiki, but it's not that "mature" of a wiki in terms of size, organization and content. Just saying. Ldude893 12:33, 28 November 2010 (UTC)

I feel that we should have a network of Simpsons wikis. I have another two planned, a Simpsons news wiki and an UnSimpsons wiki. See Blog:A Simpsons network of wikis. ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 13:33, 28 November 2010 (UTC)

Simpsons Comics characters

I was considering creating articles for Herb Barnstable and Skip Tarrington, but as far as I know they've only appeared in one comic. Should I create two articles for them, or is that overkill? Manga Maniac 12:39, 28 November 2010 (UTC)

Each character should get its own article, even if it has appeared in one comic. Make one each. ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 13:34, 28 November 2010 (UTC)

Wikia is a sh*t hole

I read your earlier message and found out you called Wikia a sh*thole. Finally someone knows! I F**CKInG HATE WIKIA for doing this!! I've also moved my wiki to here. Their Oasis is lame. I respect you for leaving Wikia. --Knightrez^(Talk) 11:09, 30 November 2010 (UTC)

Whoa! I read your last message before you were blocked on Wikia. What the F*CK are these people!! They talk to you like 3 year old babies even after you show them your true colors!!It's like they've been babies their whole lives and they've never delt with the world!! It's pretty sad and pathetic Wikia global blocked you. Ive known you on Wikia before. --Knightrez^(Talk) 11:27, 30 November 2010 (UTC)

Good to see another wiki has bitten the dust at Wikia. Have you added it on the Anti-Wikia Alliance yet? ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 16:16, 30 November 2010 (UTC)

Yes I have and I am very proud of it. --Knightrez^(Talk) 16:19, 30 November 2010 (UTC)

Thought you might want to know, a wikia wiki's main page will now redirect to Special:WikiActivity. ----Smiley12 (talk • contribs) 23:07, 13 December 2010 (UTC)

Oh yeah, and sannse said she will delete all emails without reply. 1 ----Smiley12 (talk • contribs) 23:16, 13 December 2010 (UTC)

Do wikia edits count?

Just wondering whether wikia edits count for getting awards and stuff because I've got about 150 edits including the wikia ones. Doh5678

There has been a glitch with edit count. Wikia edits do count. Check your preferences for the true edit count you have. ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 18:13, 3 December 2010 (UTC)

Spotlight Image

I've been wanting to do this for a while now but couldn't really be bothered. The Spotlight image got a bit pixelated when it was shrunk. I uploaded a HQ version of it in the same size (200x75). Could you replace the old image with the new one on the Forum Site and any other site that has the old spotlight image? Thanks.----Smiley12 (talk • contribs) 21:32, 3 December 2010 (UTC)

OK then. ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 21:32, 3 December 2010 (UTC)

Wait, when did you upload this and where? ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 21:33, 3 December 2010 (UTC)

Never mind then. The URL for the Wikisimpsons image has been used so it should be automatically updated. ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 21:34, 3 December 2010 (UTC)

Wikisimpsons Forums?

I saw at the top of the page that they were active, but when I went to check them out, I get "Interner Explorer cannot display the page". Mbruno 03:00, 4 December 2010 (UTC)

It is working fine now. ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 08:09, 4 December 2010 (UTC)

83.234.245.140

This IP was spamming as well as vandalizing. I think it warrants an immediate ban, but it's your call. -- Mythigator 19:59, 4 December 2010 (UTC)

Well, you warned him so I will let it slide for now. Our first proper vandal attack since the move! :D ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 20:26, 4 December 2010 (UTC)

You're in a more charitable mood than I am, then. I've been fighting off a cold for almost a week now, so I'm probably feeling a little punchy as a result. I do have to agree that a vandal atack is encouoraging in its own left-handed way. On a similar note, I've been seeing shoutwiki starting to appear in Google searches on Simpsons-related terms. -- Mythigator 22:31, 4 December 2010 (UTC)

Yeah. Wikisimpsons, we are on the first page. Simpsons Wiki, third with Simpsons Fanon on the second, don't ask why. I will stick by our previously used policy. Warn user. If user does it again, block. ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 22:38, 4 December 2010 (UTC)

Bot

Is your bot working? ----Smiley12 (talk • contribs) 07:31, 9 December 2010 (UTC)

No. Jack Phoenix handles bot tasks for us. Why do you ask? ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 07:32, 9 December 2010 (UTC)

Uhh... Is there somewhere we can talk in private? ----Smiley12 (talk • contribs) 20:12, 9 December 2010 (UTC)

I guess I'll come on IRC then. ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 20:14, 9 December 2010 (UTC)

lol, heard about your what you did It's Magic - C Blackadder 22:43, 9 December 2010 (UTC)

They were talking about me on the Wikia IRC channel too, I heard. Only problem is, as soon as I joined, I was kicked and blocked by Joeyaa. I used to like him, now I think he is a dick. ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 22:46, 9 December 2010 (UTC)

That attack was going incredibly well until Joey reverted everything and blocked the only account we have that still has admin powers. Wait until you see my next plan though, Simpsons Wiki will be a spam filled wiki, and Wikia Staff will destroy Simpsons Wiki upon my request. IRC same time same channel tomorrow ----Smiley12 (talk • contribs) 02:57, 10 December 2010 (UTC)

On the rise on Google

Ah, the joy. A Simspons-related Google search where we not only beat out Wikia, but also come up #1 in the results! [1] -- Mythigator 16:03, 10 December 2010 (UTC)

Not for me though. Wikia is top with the Lisa Simpson, This Isn't Your Life article for some reason. It changes depending on location I think. ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 16:11, 10 December 2010 (UTC)

A google search for "Simpsons wiki" has the top 3 being wikipedia (and number 3, for some reason, is O.J. Simpson), 4-6 being wikia and 7 being shoutwiki. [2]. -- Brian McClure 00:31, 11 December 2010 (UTC)

It's #9 for me. ----Smiley12 (talk • contribs) 01:38, 11 December 2010 (UTC)

It's #9 for me as well. First 3 are wikipedia (not surprising), 4-7 is wikia (one of them is the Michael Jackson page. weird). 8 is a domain name for sale. 9 is us. Doh5678

This is good news people. ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 20:24, 11 December 2010 (UTC)

Good news. For me, Wikisimpsons is first in a search for Simpsons Wiki. ----Smiley12 (talk • contribs) 21:42, 16 December 2010 (UTC)

Movies and Flash

Can you upload .mov or .fla to the wiki? ----Smiley12 (talk • contribs) 01:08, 12 December 2010 (UTC)

Never mind. Here's your Christmas present. A video game! made by me (btw I gave the same thing to sannse). ----Smiley12 (talk • contribs) 04:09, 12 December 2010 (UTC)

Didn't let me use it. I tried the Play button thing and downloading it but nothing happened at all. ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 08:09, 12 December 2010 (UTC)

Nothing ever seems to work on your computer. this is the link you need to go to. When the download thing pops up press 'open' and use Adobe Flash Player. ----Smiley12 (talk • contribs) 08:50, 12 December 2010 (UTC)

Ah. I don't have flash player... ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 08:58, 12 December 2010 (UTC)

I've got flash player, I just dont have an option to open it with Flash Player ----- It's Magic - C Blackadder 10:31, 12 December 2010 (UTC)

So can you upload .fla, .swf etc.? ----Smiley12 (talk • contribs) 19:28, 12 December 2010 (UTC)

Yodelin' Zeke Images

The wiki refuses to render the images in the Yodelin' Zeke article. I have no idea what its problem is ... I uploaded the images and created the article earlier this morning, everything looks fine in the code, and the file names are correct, so darned if I know what Shout is on about here. The thumbnails don't display in the files for the images, either, so I think there's a glitch afoot. What do we need to do to fix it or work around it? -- 64.122.207.197 16:49, 17 December 2010 (UTC)

Making an edit did to for me. If it hasn't for you, try resetting your cache. ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 17:09, 17 December 2010 (UTC)

It looks fine now without doing a cache reset. Maybe it just needed the edit to give it a nudge. <<shrug>> -- Mythigator 18:09, 17 December 2010 (UTC)

English or American

Hey. Do you use the American spelling (lazer) or the British spelling (laser). Either way people will be annoyed. Doh5678 01:20, 18 December 2010 (UTC)

Since The Simpsons is an American show, we use American spelling. ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 08:27, 18 December 2010 (UTC)

Thanks! Doh5678 10:55, 18 December 2010 (UTC)

Fat Tony

Hi, could you please help with the Fat Tony pages? I have done what TheHomer suggested and renamed the pages. However, I am having difficulty with a few things. Could you take a look? Effluvium 12:38, 18 December 2010 (UTC)

Done (I think) ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 12:42, 18 December 2010 (UTC)

Yup, you did it. Thanks, Solar! Effluvium 12:44, 18 December 2010 (UTC)

Project: Episodes

Hi, is there some vote/nomination I have to go through if I am interested in becoming the new leader of Project: Episodes? The current project leader has been inactive for a while, I believe. I mainly edit the episodes on this wiki anyway. Thanks Effluvium 11:12, 19 December 2010 (UTC)

There is a nomination process somewhere but I skipped you past this. You are the project leader. ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 12:09, 19 December 2010 (UTC)

Thanks! Much appreciated, Solar! Effluvium 12:14, 19 December 2010 (UTC)
