TOCUPrevNext

Hey Loco, regarding Template:TOCUPrevNext, Pages with " and ' in their link (like all tie-ins i.e. The_Simpsons:_Tapped_Out_"Mathlete's_Feat"_episode_tie-in_content_update) their number doesn't appear in the middle box, but on the side (in the update preceding it and following them) they do. Do you have any idea why does that happens? I see it takes the name from the name of the page but it doesn't recognize the "? LetsPlayNintendoITA 18:22, October 27, 2015 (EDT)

I'm pretty sure I already answered this somewhere. It's because it uses PAGENAME rather than actual text to find it. It can't cope with the punctuation. There's nothing we can do, hence adding in "|number=foo" to the templates. We have to do it for episodes too. The Solar Dragon 18:42, October 27, 2015 (EDT)

"|number=foo"? foo? LetsPlayNintendoITA 18:49, October 27, 2015 (EDT)

you mean like this?

←

001

"Level 21"

"'"

"Treehouse of Horror XXIII"

003

→

ok thanks LetsPlayNintendoITA 18:51, October 27, 2015 (EDT)

The terms foobar (/ˈfuːbɑr/), fubar, or foo, bar, baz and qux (alternatively, quux) and sometimes norf and many others are sometimes used as placeholder names (also referred to as metasyntactic variables) in computer programming or computer-related documentation.

And yes, like that. I'm sure I already told you this before but I can't find where now. The Solar Dragon 18:52, October 27, 2015 (EDT)

never heard of that term ahah thanks i forgot where but i couldn't find it either, only found jake telling me to ask Loco since he created that part xD case solved! LetsPlayNintendoITA 18:54, October 27, 2015 (EDT)

Well, I actually copied the "code" from the {{EpisodePrevNext}} template. / Loco87 ^{( / Contribs)} 19:29, October 27, 2015 (EDT)

I'm almost done fixing them thanks. oh btw can you guys delete this one? File:TSTO_Clash_of_Clones_Icon.png for some reason adblockplus decided to not make the other one work (same for a file named ad at the end of the name) LetsPlayNintendoITA 19:36, October 27, 2015 (EDT)

Title

Why is the title not showing on this page User:Dylan/Lisa Comics 1 (AU)? Thanks Dylan - Talk^Contribs 19:23, November 11, 2015 (EST)

I don't know. You should probably ask Jake. He knows more about this problems. / Loco87 ^{( / Contribs)} 02:36, November 12, 2015 (EST)

I've fixed it. With the {{Comics}} infobox template, there's no |name= x 'parameter', but there's the |title= x 'parameter'. And what you write in the "title" parameter will automatically be the title of the page. I hope I've explained it well. / Loco87 ^{( / Contribs)} 07:51, November 12, 2015 (EST)

Okay, yep you explained it well thanks Dylan - Talk^Contribs 08:54, November 12, 2015 (EST)

Images

hey, i was just wondering, why reducing the resolution of the files to 650p instead of 720p? LetsPlayNintendoITA 08:23, November 25, 2015 (EST)

I just uploaded smaller versions of those promotional images because when JPG images are too big they lose quality when scaled down to 250px. Someone told me that a couple of years ago. He said that 653x367 is the perfect size for promo images. Also, do you have access to FoxFlash? (with having access I mean if you can download promo pics from there). / Loco87 ^{( / Contribs)} 10:33, November 25, 2015 (EST)

No I don't :( i got them from here LetsPlayNintendoITA 10:35, November 25, 2015 (EST)

I have access to FoxFlash, and I saw the pics for Barthood yesterday, but I was tired so I downloaded them and the intention was to upload them today, which you already did, so thanks! If you see there're new pics in FoxFlash and nobody has uploaded them, tell me (or Solar, but he's not quite active lately) and I (or Solar) will upload them. Solar also has access to FoxFlash. Again, thanks for uploading them and the blog post. It is weird FOX has released the promo pics for Barthood before the pics for Paths of Glory. / Loco87 ^{( / Contribs)} 10:52, November 25, 2015 (EST)

yeah well it's fox. they released POG's preview two weeks ahead lol can you share the login or it's linked to ips? LetsPlayNintendoITA 11:03, November 25, 2015 (EST)

I'd prefer not to share it. It is not linked to IPs, a user has it's own account. You can try to apply for an account. / Loco87 ^{( / Contribs)} 11:19, November 25, 2015 (EST)

how? if i go to foxcredentials it has a date and something but no form? LetsPlayNintendoITA 11:24, November 25, 2015 (EST)

This page is the page for registering. / Loco87 ^{( / Contribs)} 11:44, November 25, 2015 (EST)

ok done let's hope lol thanks LetsPlayNintendoITA 11:48, November 25, 2015 (EST)

letsplaynintendoita, Your account on Foxflash has been deleted. LetsPlayNintendoITA 12:35, November 25, 2015 (EST)

What do you mean with that? You did not pass the application? / Loco87 ^{( / Contribs)} 02:33, November 26, 2015 (EST)

yes, that's what i got via mail and my login has been cancelled. LetsPlayNintendoITA 05:15, November 26, 2015 (EST)

so sad can't get that :( LetsPlayNintendoITA 00:39, November 28, 2015 (EST)

IRC

Is IRC having some trouble lately? its disconnecting now at roughly the same time as it did yesterday (connection timed out) LetsPlayNintendoITA 00:39, November 28, 2015 (EST)

Same for me./AleWi (talk) 08:28, November 28, 2015 (EST)

also At the moment EA's official forum is on lockdown after a problem last night and is not working properly. Game Discussion is locked from logging in and posting is not working or is locked. Last night a troller attacked forum members (including myself) and mods and then the forum locked down. LetsPlayNintendoITA 08:36, November 28, 2015 (EST)

and now it has been dead for 14 hours.. LetsPlayNintendoITA 13:14, November 29, 2015 (EST)

Paths of Glory

Yea sorry. didn't really know where to put it and kinda missed the intro/couch gag by having it started all of a sudden. going to see what they were on ... you know. I think it was the crow from old title screen and dices. LetsPlayNintendoITA 20:37, December 6, 2015 (EST)

The Girl Code

Hey. is there really no picture for promotional image of The Girl Code yet? Btw also, happy new year ;) LetsPlayNintendoITA 22:50, January 2, 2016 (EST)

Not yet. / Loco87 ^{(TALK / Contribs)} 03:05, January 3, 2016 (EST)

Wow that's weird. The episode airs tonight! LetsPlayNintendoITA 06:37, January 3, 2016 (EST)

It is kinda weird. / Loco87 ^{(TALK / Contribs)} 07:51, January 3, 2016 (EST)

Is that from the Youtube trailer? LetsPlayNintendoITA 09:23, January 3, 2016 (EST)

Yes, it is. / Loco87 ^{(TALK / Contribs)} 09:34, January 3, 2016 (EST)

Accidental rollback?

Accidental rollback? I thought I was going crazy for a second there as I was sure I had made the changes to the article. lol The Solar Dragon 18:51, January 22, 2016 (EST)

Yeah. Lol. I was trying to scroll the recent changes page with my ipad but I accidentally tapped your username(or I thought I had tapped your username). And I quickly stopped the loading of the page. But now I see I accidentally tapped the rollback button. Sorry! / Loco87 ^{(TALK / Contribs)} 20:11, January 22, 2016 (EST)

tsto levels

I am updating all pics of level up to be all cut to just the picture of it. In some cases like mr. Burns it also changed (his hair for example). Nice about the template. I ll finish the change in 2 hours when back home. LetsPlayNintendoITA 14:04, January 26, 2016 (EST)

I've seen that. Keep on the great work. / Loco87 ^{(TALK / Contribs)} 14:08, January 26, 2016 (EST)

Image revert

Why did you revert the image for Sherri and Terri? I changed it because the Tapped Out artwork is much better than the current low-quality scan artwork we currently have, and other characters have Tapped Out artwork used. PancticeSquadCutterback (talk) 11:24, February 6, 2016 (EST)

The current image is the official artwork for the characters. If we have official artwork, that is used instead of Tapped Out unlock images. The Solar Dragon 12:58, February 6, 2016 (EST)

If there is an official image that is decent enough, we don't replace it for the Tapped Out version. And there's also the page with the Tapped Out Artworks. The tapped out character images are all there. / Loco87 ^{(TALK / Contribs)} 14:43, February 6, 2016 (EST)

Image replacement

I uploaded the Tapped Out artwork for Sherri and Terri, and I want to replace the current with it. But the current image is under a different name and uses the same art for both. Can I change the page image for now and maybe edit the Appearances pages later. PancticeSquadCutterback (talk) 11:57, February 6, 2016 (EST)

Actually, do not bother because my question is all but answered above. PancticeSquadCutterback (talk) 19:25, February 6, 2016 (EST)

Tapped Out characters portal

Hey, we need to get the Tapped Out characters sorted. I'm starting to add in characters to the pages but we need new images for the portal. I was wondering whether you'd be able to create images for it, replacing the shoddy looking images stitched together. Thanks, The Solar Dragon 17:55, February 18, 2016 (EST)

If you mean replacing the images with images like the ones for the "costumes" or "stonecutters" collections, then I'll be able to do it, but it will take me some time, "lots" of images are to be uploaded/replaced! / Loco87 ^{(TALK / Contribs)} 19:18, February 18, 2016 (EST)

If you want i can upload the unlock pictures in a rar file and send you (if you're searching for the pictures of the characters only. not ingame screenshot).

If you're searching for all the collections etc. pictures here you go

(click on pictures to see the full ones) LetsPlayNintendoITA 19:29, February 18, 2016 (EST)

Well I uploaded it anyway hereLetsPlayNintendoITA 19:53, February 18, 2016 (EST)

Yeah, those are what I meant. And I understand it'll take time... Really, I do... I have at least 19 character collections to complete, most likely more. lol. Then buildings... The Solar Dragon 20:12, February 18, 2016 (EST)

Chat?

Hi, do you want to chat? I want to ask a couple of questions. FatHomer^Talk 14:27, February 23, 2016 (EST)

In IRC? / Loco87 ^{(TALK / Contribs)} 14:38, February 23, 2016 (EST)

Did i ever mention how much i hate DST? We change next week and so I MISSED THE EPISODE live :( LetsPlayNintendoITA 20:20, March 13, 2016 (EDT)

Isn't game screens better then photoshopped pics? LetsPlayNintendoITA 21:46, March 15, 2016 (EDT)

The SF Shopper

Hey can you access the blog? LetsPlayNintendoITA 11:08, March 24, 2016 (EDT)

Nope. I saw the email notification of the post of the new promo pic and I checked FoxFlash only to see 4 pics from "The Burns Cage" and 6 pics from "How Lisa Got Her Marge Back". I don't know what happens with the blog. / Loco87 ^{(TALK / Contribs)} 11:17, March 24, 2016 (EDT)

yeah wikia posted the promo pics (cause i can't access foxFlash cause they didn't accept me) and posted it though they only posted the first one and less quality? bah thanks anyway! I sent Jake an email for the blog LetsPlayNintendoITA 11:23, March 24, 2016 (EDT)

Hey cool a promo picture of the couch gag! LetsPlayNintendoITA 11:24, March 24, 2016 (EDT)

Question

How do you get hold of so many promo stills so quickly and so soon? I just wonder. --205.213.104.111 18:24, March 24, 2016 (EDT)

You need to get access granted to FoxFlash LetsPlayNintendoITA 18:46, March 24, 2016 (EDT)

Oh, is that where he gets them? --205.213.104.111 18:40, May 16, 2016 (EDT)

apparently so. wow you never changed ip since march? lol LetsPlayNintendoITA 18:51, May 16, 2016 (EDT)

THOH XXVII script cover

hey, I just tweeted today with al jean and he's sending me the cover of the THOH XXVII script from Season 28! I'll get a frame ready! IT's gonna take ages since i'm in Italy but worth it. he's so cool :p LetsPlayNintendoITA 20:59, March 24, 2016 (EDT)

I send that tweet cause yeah i'd have loved one of those and didn't expect him to really sent me! LetsPlayNintendoITA 21:01, March 24, 2016 (EDT)

I already got a signed script cover from Al Jean! About a year ago! I was one of the first users he sent stuff to. Unfortunately, the script cover was from THOH XXIII !! If you actually get the cover of THOH 27 and you can make a better pic of it than the one we have now, then do it! / Loco87 ^{(TALK / Contribs)} 21:08, March 24, 2016 (EDT)

Sure will! Wow THOH 23 LetsPlayNintendoITA 21:21, March 24, 2016 (EDT)

How Lisa Got Her Marge Back Sneak Peak

So Long at YouTube

Do you remember where that can of worms scene come from? I remember it from somewhere but can't place it :( LetsPlayNintendoITA 13:56, April 8, 2016 (EDT)

I don't think it comes from anywhere. It's from the episode itself. / Loco87 ^{(TALK / Contribs)} 15:16, April 8, 2016 (EDT)

The Last Traction Hero

Wasn't that the title of a I&S episode The Last Traction Hero from Itchy & Scratchy Land? I can't find info on this episode title you asked AlJean LetsPlayNintendoITA 08:57, April 16, 2016 (EDT)

I asked Al Jean about the title of WABF03 'cause he posted a tweet (that he later deleted) with this pic. He posted it on a day they made a table read for a new episode, the one that would be WABF04. I know that 'cause I've found pics of that day on Instagram from people who attended the read and red-coloured script covers can be seen in some of them, though the title or the prod. code is not visible. That made me doubt. They have made "typing mistakes" before (remember UABF01 instead of VABF01). Given this, I wouldn't rename the Fatzcarraldo article to the new title yet. And, yes, "The Last Traction Hero" is also the title of an I&S episode. / Loco87 ^{(TALK / Contribs)} 11:22, April 16, 2016 (EDT)

Yes let's wait for him to answer :p maybe Fatzcarraldo was the temp. title? LetsPlayNintendoITA 11:50, April 16, 2016 (EDT)

Simprovised

Hey, since the two airing are different. is there a way to catch both somehow? The stream site i use airs the one at the usual 8/7c but is there a way to watch the east cost airing ? LetsPlayNintendoITA 18:25, April 16, 2016 (EDT)

I dunno. I don't even know if I'll watch the 4 remaining s27 episodes in live streaming. I'll have a lot of stuff to do in late April and in May. The point is: I dunno. / Loco87 ^{(TALK / Contribs)} 20:25, April 16, 2016 (EDT)

If they put them both in Foxnow is it possible you could capture those last 3 minutes from East Coast when you have some time if rippers don't post them please? LetsPlayNintendoITA 20:54, April 16, 2016 (EDT)

Notifications?

hey, I haven't recieved emails for the new edits on simprovised and season 27 on wiki. is that normal? LetsPlayNintendoITA 21:42, April 28, 2016 (EDT)

nevermind they all come with a quick influx of 6 emails at once lol. the 151. ip was me testing the notifications just now (same ip). Guess it was waiting for you to finish! LetsPlayNintendoITA 21:48, April 28, 2016 (EDT)

Jake sent me this:

Part of the optimizations done a while back changed how emails are sent. Instead of sending notifications immediately while the editor saves the page (which slowed down saving by a lot), emails are now queued up and sent every few minutes. This is completely intentional and is why you receive multiple emails at a time and they aren't always right away. LetsPlayNintendoITA 22:12, April 28, 2016 (EDT)

To Courier with Love

You still there? Haven't heard from you ever since the last email. Also the promo pictures for To Courier with Love are out but of course I can't get them. Can you check? thanks LetsPlayNintendoITA 21:54, May 4, 2016 (EDT)

Nevermind found the page that wikia holds all pics of the episode lol LetsPlayNintendoITA 21:58, May 4, 2016 (EDT)

Thanks. I've caught a cold this week and I also have hard exams this week. So I'm not being quite active lately. So thanks again for being aware 24/7 of any Simpsons-related news! :-P / Loco87 ^{(Talk / Contribs)} 06:55, May 5, 2016 (EDT)

np. Being subbed to the various wiki pages for eps and twitters helps ahah were the pics good? LetsPlayNintendoITA 07:28, May 5, 2016 (EDT)

Simprovised commercial

A Simprovised commercial was shown. Too bad it wasn't capped by the rippers :( hopefully it'll be posted somewhere! LetsPlayNintendoITA 21:02, May 8, 2016 (EDT)

Tapped Out character images

Hi, I've been working on the characters page again, and have completely redone it so it doesn't look as messed up as it did. We need updated images for some character collections that are too long to screenshot: Oddballs, Animals and Pets and Exotic Animals and Pets. We also need to replace the Costumes image as some of the costumes have been moved to other collections, More Costumes needs an image, as does Even More Costumes now. Are you able to get to work on these? Thank you, The Solar Dragon 08:19, June 10, 2016 (EDT)

I've all the images here in case you need them and don't want to do every single one and crop them. Characters & Costumes LetsPlayNintendoITA 08:21, June 10, 2016 (EDT)

Oh, and School Workers needs and updated image too... I wish they'd use their "More X" categories more... The Solar Dragon 11:08, June 10, 2016 (EDT)

I'll start working with them in ten days (I'm kinda busy this month until the 21st). Meanwhile, all the non-updated images (I updated some of them some months ago) of collections short enough to fit in a single screenshot can be updated with LPNintendo's ones. What I also really need to work a lot with this summer is the Low Quality Images category. / Loco87 ^{(TALK / Contribs)} 16:21, June 11, 2016 (EDT)

Blog email notifications

Hey, i asked Jake to setup the plugin for the email notifications for the blog on changes on posts. I saw you're doing the post on the last changes on s28. wonder what happened that day should have caught that tweets. dangit :( Also created the reference for the last traction hero title being the same as the I&S one. LetsPlayNintendoITA 18:47, June 27, 2016 (EDT)

I'm now officially on holidays, so I decided to clean up the "Low quality images" category and, of course, to help to keep the wiki up-to-date with season 28 news. Today I was just checking Jean's twitter to see if something new had been missed and I've found those tweets about Fatzcarraldo. Thanks for creating the reference! Now I'm looking forward to see if FOX publishes a PDF with a 'synopsis' of season 28 just like last year and 2014. (I mean a PDF like this one). Also, is that plugin for TSS notifications enabled? / Loco87 ^{(TALK / Contribs)} 19:05, June 27, 2016 (EDT)

Not yet. He's going to set it up probably tomorrow. Send him a mail saying you want to be added to it. Hope we get more. i want more. more. MOREEE. Did you see @TheSimpsons plugging TSTO? ahah LetsPlayNintendoITA 20:04, June 27, 2016 (EDT)

Replacements

Do you have to redo my two pictures entirely, without even consulting me? They were my intention in the first place. --Spare-tire (talk) 17:52, July 19, 2016 (EDT)

First of all, they were not your pictures; their owner is FOX. Second, images need to be of a considerable quality (and if a JPG screenshot can be replaced by a better-quality PNG version of it, it should be replaced; promo pics are exceptions to this). And third, I don't see why should I consult you about the pictures. / Loco87 ^{(TALK / Contribs)} 19:42, July 19, 2016 (EDT)

It's just as well, no one ever consults me about anything. --Spare-tire (talk) 21:07, July 19, 2016 (EDT)
