User talk:DevlyHallows/Archive 1

Your message on the anon's user page
I had already left that user a message about creating the Curtis Paradis page; you didn't need to get involved in that issue. There is no problem per se in creating a page about a well-known Sims player; the reason we have no page on Curtis Paradis is because the community decided to delete it in the past. --  LiR speak ~ read 09:15, October 6, 2012 (UTC)


 * On an unrelated note, while there is no rule against it, I would suggest that you not delete content from your talk page. If you want to reduce its page length, try archiving the contents - to do this, create a page at User talk:Devdevdev/Archive 1 or something similar, and copy-paste the contents from here to there, before deleting it off this page. Keeping talk page archives makes it easier to look back later to see past conversations/messages. --  LiR speak ~ read 09:18, October 6, 2012 (UTC

RE: Signature
Hm, I think I know why. When you put it into the blog post, it was just words. It wasn't linked to your userpage or your talk page. Luckily, I found the proper code that was deleted from your old talk page. ' J e    v  o  u  d   r   a   i   s     u   n  ( t   a   l    k                                    h   e   r   e ) ' So do everything I told you to do on your blog post with this code. I hope it works out! c:  Colin the Panda -  Meow  09:02, October 7, 2012 (UTC)

RE: Real life simmers
Sorry I wasn't around at that time, but LiR has taken care of it anyway. If possible, please provide the link of who did the vandalism or what page has been vandalized. Since this is the case of page recreation, you could've provided the link to the vandal. Thanks for reporting, though.  Nikel  Talk  –  Vote!  04:13, October 8, 2012 (UTC)

Formatting issues
I have noticed that a number of your edits seem not to be formatted properly. This bad formatting results in needless white space, misaligned text, and other bugs that then have to be fixed by other users. These issues may be caused by a number of things, but my best guess is that they are related to the use of the Visual Editor. Let me explain. Wikia has two ways to edit a page; Visual Editor and Source Editor. Visual editor is designed mainly for new users who don't understand how to use wiki text markup, where source editor allows the editing of the wiki simply by using text to add content. For instance, placing  (two square brackets) around a word will create a link to the proper article, as in this example: The Sims 3 becomes The Sims 3 Visual editor is useful for new and inexperienced editors, but I cannot stress enough that it is not a perfect editor system and tends to cause a lot of problems, especially if used on more complex pages. Therefore, it's generally best to transition off using Visual Editor and to begin using source editor. If you are unfamiliar with wiki markup text, there are a number of help pages that explain what does what and how it works. Otherwise, you have the ability in any edit window to switch back and forth between Visual and Source modes; I'd encourage you to look at many of our pages in Source mode, so you can begin to understand how they function, then try to duplicate that function in source mode on your own. Ultimately, it is very difficult to be a strong contributor to the wiki without a strong knowledge of wiki markup. That means abandoning Visual Editor is almost mandatory. If you have any questions or concerns, please leave me a message, or join me on the IRC channel or Wiki Chat. --  LiR speak ~ read 19:55, October 9, 2012 (UTC)

Anonymous Users
I noticed you contacted several admins on the Sims wiki over an unregistered user's creation of a fanon page. You must understand, even the admins cannot stop unregistered users from creating a page. It is virtually impossible and simply part of the wiki's formatting. I can reassure you though, we give the users a certain number of days to log in before their page is deleted and most of the users do not log in on time. I understand your frustration but please bare with the wiki's admins and also refrain yourself from making any comments that are unconstructive or appear to attack other users. Thank you.

Yeah Sure! Just come on chat and tell me all the details that you want for the border c:

So I guess there were just some misunderstandings here. At that time, I warned that IP address (who turned out to be you?) due to editing Wir's userpage. Since you replied that it was your userpage, we thought you were lying, because Wir isn't from UK. But I think you claimed that you edited yours (Devdevdev), that's why I think there was a confusion there. So I guess the case is now closed.  Nikel  Talk – Vote! 07:26, October 21, 2012 (UTC)

RE: Signature
Hi! Sorry because it takes long time, but I now finished your signature. But what do you mean with Zapf Dingbats? I can add it to your signature, but which one? I really don't understand. Anyway, your signature without Zapf Dingbats looks: Welcome To The World Of The Sims Wiki  ( Hallo! Klicken Sie hier, um mit mir chatten ) (Watch and Learn! )

Your Signature
I made an edit to your signature template. You forgot to add closing tags for your font, meaning the font color your template uses would carry on to things posted after your signature; I've added the necessary tags so the problem should be fixed.

On the subject of your signature, I have a suggestion. The font color you use in your signature is very difficult to read against the wiki's background. Maybe you should consider using a darker color? --  LiR speak ~ read 19:20, November 14, 2012 (UTC)

Requirements
I noticed you were asking about the number of edits required for adminship? Well there is no required amount, however you'd be more likely to recieve the job with just over 1,000 edits in experiance. Mainspace edits, for creating pages to correcting a single word are duable. Good luck.

<font face="Avenir"> Freedom  talk  14:52, November 17, 2012 (UTC)


 * Like Freedom said, we're not stuck to a number of edits you have, although you might need to have a reasonable amount of contributions in mainspace. At the time of writing, you only had 140 edits in mainspace. What's more important is that your experience in editing, such as your knowledge of editing in source mode, or wiki workarounds, as those would be important to become an admin. And perhaps, getting involved to the community as often as you can.  Nikel  Talk  –  Vote!  02:59, November 18, 2012 (UTC)

Robert Castor
I'm pretty sure in your game Robert Castor had his Alma Mater from the military school, Devdevdev. He doesn't have the Can Salute trait, and graduating from that school unlocks the salute interaction. That, however, doesn't necessarily grant Sims the hidden trait.

Hi, please make sure to give detailed filenames to all images you upload, i.e. File:Tree.jpg instead of File:8207674790_91d9401bf2_m.jpg, and make sure you remember to categorise and license them.

RE:Your Thoughts About The Sims 3: Seasons
Hello there. Are you planning to buy Seasons? If you are, you won't make a mistake. Although it's my first Sims 3 expansion pack I am enjoying the features that The Sims 3 Seasons brings. The weather affects are beautifully done, the festivals are fun - especially if you have more families in your neighbourhood. Trick-or-treating is fun, and aliens are done very well. Online dating is a great addition. There are new objects and new clothing that come with this expansion pack. The only con to this expansion pack is that I expected more objects for festivals. There are plenty decorations and fun activities but it may get repetitive. If I gave it a grade, it'd be 8.5/10.

A little tip
Hi, Dev. I know you've been trying to help, but I guess you need to understand a bit about the Manual of Style. For starter, try not to randomly capitalize each word like you did in here among others. Aside from basic form like capital letter at the first sentence, only some words or terms use definite capital letters here, such as "Sim," name of traits, game titles, "PlantSim," or lifetime rewards. Terms like "adult," "alien," or "bladder" may or may not be in capital letter, depending on the context (like we mostly use "Genie" in uppercase G in Genie page), but generally they're now used with lowercase.

Signatures
Hey, just thought I should let you know that your signature template had an unclosed font tag which was turning talk pages pink, like literally. I've fixed it for you but just as a heads up, remember to check your signature coding carefully in the future and if you've opened a tag so you can make an effect on a sig (like colour), you should close it after the text you want to affect with. For example:

Text here!

That should come out as:

Text here!

On another minor note regarding signatures, I've noticed you've gone to various pages and replaced your raw signature with your templated signature. Generally that is discouraged as not only does it give users unnecessary notifications on their talk pages but also the content attributed to you is archived anyway. It's not as bad if you've moved your template name to another page and you want to substitute the old one with the new one as that stops a redlinked template showing up in maintenance territory. The message I'm trying to give here is that replacing raw signature code with templated code is unnecessary and if anything, a waste of your time.

Hope this helps! 12:06, December 21, 2012 (UTC)


 * Thanks for fixing the template, I was a bit annoyed with it, and yes I did think it was a waste of my time. 🌹 Deathbee1000 15:12, December 21, 2012 (UTC)
