Wikicity Logos
Regarding Wikicities, how do you change the logo for a Wikicity? Having the normal logo for a dedicated Wikicity makes it a bit basic, and I want to make the logo better. Can you tell me how please. Thankyou. P.S I have added here also so I can get an answer quickly.--M Johnson 02:52, 31 December 2005 (UTC)
- Hello, you need to be an admin to upload a logo. Since the original admin on this wiki has never edited here, I've given you admin access so you can upload the logo. Just create a .png file of 155 by 135 pixels. The filename needs to be Wiki.png. See the Administrators' how-to guide if you need any help with the new functions this access gives you.

- More exactly: Width=135px and Height=155px ;-) --- Best regards, Melancholie 06:15, 31 Dec 2005 (UTC)
Attempting to set up
I'm attempting to set up a community portal, with two columns of text side by side. I'm just having trouble with the boxes. I'll have another go later. Bobo 07:09, 13 Jan 2006 (UTC)
MediaWiki namespace
Hello. Any pages in the MediaWiki namespace are automatically protected, so you don't need to worry about non-admins editing them. I'm changing the namespace name to Wikisimpsons as you requested. Angela (talk) 16:25, 13 Jan 2006 (UTC)
Vandals
Hello. If Jake the Croboy causes you any more problems, please let me know. He's been vandalising other wikis too. Angela (talk) 20:19, 28 January 2006 (UTC)
Mini-wiki?
Personally, I think that, to get more articles, we should slowly transfer articles over from Wikipedia. What should we do? Bobman123 04:37, 26 March 2006 (UTC)
- You can do that (although it's best to adapt them, rather than just copy them - there is no point to a duplicate resource). You need to stick to the conditions of the GFDL though, which means (at the simplest level) attribution and a link to the Wikipedia authors. There is a template you can use on Central at Template:Wikipedia -- sannse (talk) 09:02, 5 April 2006 (UTC)
Bureaucrat
Hi, I've moved you up to bureaucrat - which means that you can make other contributors sysops. I've also added Thai420 as a sysop to help out. He's been clearing some vandalism already, so it will help him to have the needed buttons. Hopefully these two changes will help keep the problems down -- sannse (talk) 09:02, 5 April 2006 (UTC)
