Minor quote help
Hi LiR, sorry to bother you but this quote has been bugging me for quite a while and I could really do with your help! :3

I have a quote on my userpage which quotes something I found on an LGBT website a few weeks ago, now at the end of it I have put, as the author of the quote, An LGBT News Source. The thing that's been bugging the most about me is, how that doesn't really define the author of the quote. This is the bit where you come in; can you maybe advise me on how to quote the author better, please?

Thank you so much! :3 HanaGoth96  ( Neigh...? ) 16:20, April 19, 2013 (UTC)

Rollbacking
No thanks, I'd rather just be a normal user. :) Hurshbr (talk) 23:36, April 19, 2013 (UTC)Hurshbr

What's the difference between a rollback and a normal user. And of course an administrator? C.Syde65 (talk) 06:50, January 21, 2014 (UTC)

New Page Cover feature
Hi LiR. I was just wondering if I could use this template (Page cover) for my wiki's front page and ONLY the front page as you created it. I will use my own pictures and promise not to use it on other pages. Thanks! Jason [ Talk to me! ]  16:35, April 22, 2013 (UTC)

Re:Request for Resolution of an issue
I appreciate your offer, and I will happily help in any way I can. I don't think it will be too difficult for me to come to a conclusion, but there are definitely a lot of mixed messages. I'll do my best, I just hope that my opinion won't lead to any ill will between myself and any other members of the community. I'll do my best, and thank you for entrusting me with such a task! 00:48, May 10, 2013 (UTC)

Chance card
I'm thinking that the chance card table might clutter the page with too many tables that are difficult to distinguish. How about making a subpage for chance card for each career article?  Nikel  Talk  –  Vote!  05:51, May 24, 2013 (UTC)

Hey LiR! Sorry I didn't get stay long enough to get your message. What is it that you wanted to talk about? And by the way, I appreciate that you nominated me for Administrator! I have accepted and I look forward to seeing how the community responds! 02:27, August 1, 2013 (UTC)

News and contests
Hi LiR! :) Do you think you can include the contest Big Sim Brother in the news blogs, and maybe other active contests too, to get some more visibility and activity? I am not asking just because I am personally making this contest but also because I think that maybe this should be done to others as well in order to help contests get more activity than they have had. Thank you for the attention :), -- RoseGui ✿ ( talk ) 19:36, August 1, 2013 (UTC)

Link and policy
I and Beds had a bit of a minor dispute regarding an old link of mine that was in my userpage. Currently the matter has been resolved with me making a covenant not to mention it again. However, was the link against the policy, and what would have been your first reaction to this?

On the other hand, it does seem like I'm in error, given that the rules state that it must be appropriate for general audiences. Although there weren't any thing wrong in my PoV, given that it was marked NSFW by the site, I should presume it not so.

Hey LiR, when you get the chance, please can you come onto either Chat or IRC so I can privately apologise to you about my behaviour last night (or afternoon for you, depending on your timezone and whatnot). Great, thanks! Beds (parlare - da leggere ) 07:17, September 24, 2013 (UTC)

Re: Request for administratorship feedback
As far as I'm concerned, Beds, Pidge, Waikikamukow, and you pretty much said it all. If other folks feel that way, it might have contributed to the discussion fading out. I know I was reluctant to add something that would have amounted to "what they said". Hmm... I'm hesitant to declare consensus based on four or five voices, and can't say that progress is being made. On the other hand, I can't say that Jason's nomination is contested. I don't think that continuing the discussion would produce any change, and I expect that the nomination would be approved with little or no opposition if we call a vote. That being so, my inclination is to approve based on the strength of the arguments in favor and the absence of arguments against. Dharden (talk) 13:27, October 4, 2013 (UTC)

Hi
Thank you for taking notice! I actually am a registered member, but for the most part I tend to ignore my account and edit unregistered. My interest is focused extensively on the Gender article because I started it a few years ago and recently became a bit concerned with how sloppy it looked. I think it looks a lot better now after this recent surge of edits everyone put into it. =)

Request for community input
Hah, thanks for editing the image I posted. How can you do that? I'm new here and want to help the wikia.

Vandalism
I should ask if you noticed that you reverted a massive act of vandalism form a user, who deleteted the The Sims 3 section on the Cars page. I suggest that he may need a warning notice to stop the behaviour from happening again, well thats what I think. Joey.eyeball (talk) 05:45, November 11, 2013 (UTC)

I never thought about it that way... and I get what you mean, so thanks for explaining that to me. On a completely unrelated note, please call me Joseph. :) Joey.eyeball (talk) 06:33, November 11, 2013 (UTC)

Polls
Hello, Patrick. Since you are in charge of the polls, or so the page says, you need to place the current poll as 'The Sims Wiki:Polls/2013 November' and create a new one for december since its three days late. Joey.eyeball (talk) 04:35, December 3, 2013 (UTC)


 * Ok. So the poll will finish at about new years eve, right? But won't that be a bit weird since the poll is for most of december even though its a november poll? Joey.eyeball (talk) 07:54, December 3, 2013 (UTC)

Vandalism

Block
Hello, Patrick. I am wondering why you blocked me yesterday. If I did anything wrong, I truly apologize but I'm just want to know why. Joey.eyeball (talk) 03:07, December 22, 2013 (UTC)


 * Yes, I was. I'm sure. Whenever I tried to edit I went onto this view source thing and it said that you blocked me for attacking users and ignoring warnings. Something about my IP Address used by someone else. Joey.eyeball (talk) 03:22, December 22, 2013 (UTC)


 * Also, it said my IP Address was used by this user. Judging by their username, they are from my country, although I have no idea who they are. Joey.eyeball (talk) 03:32, December 22, 2013 (UTC)


 * Ok. Being blocked was a nightmare and I'm glad that is over. Joey.eyeball (talk) 03:40, December 22, 2013 (UTC)

Website shutting down
If the Sims 2 website has already shut down, I guess it doesn't really matter to me anyway. C.Syde65 (talk) 06:51, January 21, 2014 (UTC)

Sims with mismatched signs
Apparently some of the user created Sims have fallen under this category. How is one meant to make a separate category for fanon Sims with mismatched signs? C.Syde65 (talk) 07:07, January 21, 2014 (UTC)

Would it be possible to create the category: sims with mismatched sign (fanon)? C.Syde65 (talk) 23:36, January 21, 2014 (UTC)

That may mean well, but I'm unsure on how that's going to help with my editing on the Sims wiki. But I know there must be something. C.Syde65 (talk) 01:33, January 22, 2014 (UTC)

I am bold, mostly. But there's a template for sign mismatches. Doesn't it require making or editing a template so that it can automatically link fanon Sims to a category: sims with mismatched sign (fanon) rather than pre-made Sims to the category: sims with mismatched sign? When fanon users add the template on their fanon Sim pages, it adds them to the same category for sims with mismatched sign as the pre-made ones. If it requires editing the template so that fanon created content can be linked to a fanon category of that category, I doubt whether I know how to do that myself. C.Syde65 (talk) 01:42, January 22, 2014 (UTC)

I think I might have done it. C.Syde65 (talk) 03:03, January 22, 2014 (UTC)

User types
What's the difference between a normal user and a rollback and/or a bureaucrat and an administrator? How does being each of them make a difference as a user? I'm currently happy just being a normal user myself, but I'd want to know the differences anyway. C.Syde65 (talk) 01:49, January 22, 2014 (UTC)

I never felt outranked myself obviously, but thanks for giving me those answers. C.Syde65 (talk) 02:02, January 22, 2014 (UTC)

RE: "Combined" personality tables
Would that be Template:Simology? If so, then yes, that would be me. It has been discontinued some time because I found it a little complicated for use. That template doesn't combine the personality tables though, as they still have to be used separately. That template is just to arrange a list of tabber like in Rose Greenman.

Updating the warning template
Ha! Good to see you stole (I mean borrow) my idea for the shared IP notice. The original idea actually wasn't mine (Yes, Wikipedia reference ahead), I actually got the idea from this template, which is separate from the actual warning template and is optional. Some anti-vandalism tools automatically add the notice when warning an IP user. K6ka (talk &#124; contribs) 01:40, February 5, 2014 (UTC)

Permanently Blocked Users
I'm just wondering what the point is of keeping the user pages of users that have been permanently blocked. C.Syde65 (talk) 08:53, February 9, 2014 (UTC)
 * @C.Syde65 It's still their userpage. Indefinite blocks are not infinite blocks. Users can still be unblocked (and reblocked) at any time. Good admins should allow blocked users to edit their talk page so they can contest or appeal a block, as is the policy on Wikipedia (a lot of admins on other wikis make this horrible mistake). Also, the only reason why a userpage should be deleted is 1. Author's request or 2. If it contains offensive or inappropriate material.


 * User talk pages are almost never deleted, as seen here. K6ka (talk &#124; contribs) 13:00, February 9, 2014 (UTC)
