Your question

If you want text to be in the center of the page (or in this case, the infobox), then you need to type <center> Text </center>. this is one of many HyperText Markup Language codes that are compatible with this wiki. - - Smiley12 was here at 04:59, April 15, 2010 (UTC)

I have edited the location infobox template so it now automatically does this. - - Smiley12 was here at 05:09, April 15, 2010 (UTC)

Thank you. I don't know how to edit infoboxes and that kind of things. TheHomer 23:36, April 15, 2010 (UTC)

Image Licensing

You have recently uploaded the image File:The Bart Wants What It Wants.png, to this wiki; however, you did not add a licensing tag to it. Every image on Wikisimpsons must have the correct copyright status provided in the image's description, otherwise it may be deleted. There are licensing templates provided which can be placed on the page to provide copyright status. The templates can be used through the drop down menus which you will find on the upload screen. See Wikisimpsons:Images for more information.Thank you.☆The Solar Dragon (Talk)☆ 05:20, April 22, 2010 (UTC)

Oh, sorry! I didn't know that. You see, it is not a TV screenshot. I took the picture from a video on YouTube. Is there any cpyright on that? If there is, please tell me the correct template. — ^TheHomer ^{(Talk • Contributions)} 16:40, April 22, 2010 (UTC)

Just use {{Image Fox|source=[[Episode name]]|shows=What the image shows}} ☆The Solar Dragon ^(Talk)☆ 16:51, April 22, 2010 (UTC)

Ultrahouse Pictures

You rock! Thanks for adding the Ultrahouse pictures. Mythigator 01:38, April 30, 2010 (UTC)

You're welcome. For me, uploading pictures is really easy. — ^TheHomer ^{(Talk • Contributions)}17:17, April 30, 2010 (UTC)

Uploading isn't a huge deal; for me, it's getting the pictures in the first place. Do you know of any free software that'll let you do screen grabs from DVDs? -- Mythigator 01:29, May 28, 2010 (UTC)

Oh, I hadn't seen your comment. And... no, I don't, sorry. I just get the pictures from videos (since I don't know how to take screenshots from TV). — ^TheHomer ^{(Talk • Contributions)} 17:26, May 28, 2010 (UTC)

Image Licensing 2

You have recently uploaded the image File:Shadow of the Colossal Donut.png, to this wiki; however, you did not add a licensing tag to it. Every image on Wikisimpsons must have the correct copyright status provided in the image's description within a day, otherwise it will be deleted. There are licensing templates provided which can be placed on the page to provide copyright status. The templates can be used through the drop down menus which you will find on the upload screen. See Wikisimpsons:Images for more information.Thank you.☆The Solar Dragon (Talk)☆ 06:05, May 4, 2010 (UTC)

Video?

I just want to know a very little thing. When I added a category to Evergreen Terrace, in the "latest activity" box it appeared as a "video added". Why? — ^TheHomer ^{(Talk • Contributions)} 21:40, May 11, 2010 (UTC)

Forget it. It disappeared. — ^TheHomer ^{(Talk • Contributions)} 21:55, May 11, 2010 (UTC)

It just does that when you categorize something, nothing unusual --Smiley12 was here at 05:26, May 17, 2010 (UTC)

Problem Reporting

The Problem reporting link is at the bottom of an article, it has a red circle with an exclamation mark before it. Under 'View Random Page', and above 'Share'. If you still can't find it (you should be able to) then use 'Ctrl + F'. --Smiley12 was here at 05:26, May 17, 2010 (UTC)ç

Oh, I should've seen it. Thanks. — ^TheHomer ^{(Talk • Contributions)} 18:54, May 17, 2010 (UTC)

Rollback Nomination

Hi, I have nominated you for rollback and you have to accept the nomination. Please do so under the Comments section, unless you don't want the rights that is in which case, feel free to decline the nomination under the same place. Link is here ☆The Solar Dragon ^(Talk)☆ 20:25, May 27, 2010 (UTC)

THOH XVI

Nice work on Treehouse of Horror XVI. -- Mythigator 01:30, May 28, 2010 (UTC)

Thank you. — ^TheHomer ^{(Talk • Contributions)} 17:17, May 28, 2010 (UTC)

Signature

Hi, do you think you could help me out? I've been trying to make a custom signature, which can be seen here - User:Effluvium/sig - but I cannot get it to me my signature. I've seen that you created a custom signature (User:TheHomer/sig), and I was wondering if you could tell me how to set my signature actually as my signature. I'd be very grateful. Thanks! Effluvium 16:28, May 29, 2010 (UTC)

If you just want your signature in a page, use {{User:Effluvium/sig}} and then five (not four) tildes (~~~~~). If what you want is make all of your signatures in all of the talk pages you have signed before to change to your costume signature, then I don't know how. If you want to put your signature without using {{User:Effluvium/sig}}, I think you have to go to your preferences and type your custom signature in the signature box. I'm not so sure so I'll try with my signature. If I discover it, I'll tell you. — ^TheHomer ^{(Talk • Contributions)} 17:17, May 29, 2010 (UTC)

Thanks so much for your help! Effluvium 17:21, May 29, 2010 (UTC)

No problem. Wait... what did you wanted to do? Because I didn't understand so much what you wanted. I discovered that by typing your custom signature (with preformatted text, like editing a normal page) in the signature box in your preferences, you just have to put ~~~~ in a page so your custom signature appears, without putting {{User:Effluvium/sig}}. Anyway, no problem. — ^TheHomer 17:31, May 29, 2010 (UTC)

Wikisimpsons:Signature should help you --Smiley12 was here at 21:33, May 29, 2010 (UTC)

OK. Thanks for the help! I've got it working now. Thanks again!    Effluvium    talk    contributions    email   22:06, May 29, 2010 (UTC)

Matt Groening (Character)

Hi, thanks for sorting out that page for me. I made it this morning in a bit of a rush and didn't get to finish it off. Thanks!    Effluvium    talk    contributions    email   19:48, May 31, 2010 (UTC)

You're welcome. — ^TheHomer 19:50, May 31, 2010 (UTC)

☆The Golden Homer Award☆

The Golden Homer Award Congratulations! For your outstanding service to articles you have been awarded the Golden Homer Award for May 2010!

Yay! Thank you a lot! — ^TheHomer 16:23, June 1, 2010 (UTC)

You're welcome. Also, our new system starts today. Link in the Sitenotice. The Solar Dragon 16:54, June 1, 2010 (UTC)

Rollback Passed

You now have rollback rights. This will make it easier for you to deal with vandalism. Feel free to place {{User Rollback}} on your user page. The Solar Dragon 06:08, June 3, 2010 (UTC)

Oh, yeah! Thank you and the people who voted for me. — ^TheHomer 19:44, June 3, 2010 (UTC)

Sorry for unnescesary rollbacks

Sorry, it's my fault: I pressed the buttons by accident, it was a mistake... a double mistake, I did it twice. I'm sorry! — ^TheHomer 22:40, June 4, 2010 (UTC)

That's Okay, I sometimes accidentally do that as well --Smiley12 was here at 22:48, June 4, 2010 (UTC)

Good to know I'm not the only one. I'll try not to do it anymore. — ^TheHomer 23:22, June 4, 2010 (UTC)

Peter Griffin

Hi. Thanks for sorting out Peter Griffins page, after it was vandalized. I have told the user that his edit may be considered vandalism by some. So I have given him an unoffical warning. Thanks!    Effluvium    talk    contributions    email   18:26, June 12, 2010 (UTC)

You're welcome. I didn't left a warning on his talk page because I wasn't sure if that was vandalism or some other thing. — ^TheHomer ^{(Talk • Contributions)} 18:28, June 12, 2010 (UTC)

OK. Well, I left him a little message just telling him that it may be counted as vandalism if it continues. Thanks for that!    Effluvium    talk    contributions    email   18:35, June 12, 2010 (UTC)

Tagging pages for deletion

Hello, I've noticed that you have tagged several pages for deletion, which is great. However, when you add the delete tag, could you please leave whatever content is in there, even if it's blatant vandalism? It makes things easier for us to assess. For example, with Characters in the Simpsons Hit and Run, there was a redirect there. You removed the redirect and said it should be deleted because there was no content. Next time, just say "useless redirect". -- Brian McClure 21:30, June 12, 2010 (UTC)

OK, I know I should have done that. Sorry, I will do it next time I tag pages for deletion. — ^TheHomer ^{(Talk • Contributions)} 21:45, June 12, 2010 (UTC)

Orphaned pages

I'm ready if you want it done now. My bot will also do a general clean up to the pages. If you want I can do other things as well. Manyman ^(Talk) 06:26, July 5, 2010 (UTC)

No problem :D Manyman ^(Talk) 21:57, July 5, 2010 (UTC)

hi TheHomer, I'm gonna be working on Simpsons Wiki! —Preceding unsigned comment added by PremierChannel TV '10 (talk • contribs) 11:44, July 21, 2010

Userboxes

Hi, do you mind if I make the user boxes on your user page into templates for use on other user pages? They are pretty good I feel. Thanks, ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 17:36, July 26, 2010 (UTC)

Good idea! I was thinking on turning them into templates, but then I saw Template:Userboxes already existed (although those userboxes aren't actually... pretty). — ^TheHomer ^{(Talk • Contributions)} 17:39, July 26, 2010 (UTC)
