Hello RR
hello I wa wondering if you could undo the edits of Shirviu on the Newbie Family. ArchieAndrewfan3001 01:59, January 25, 2010 (UTC)

Landgraab
Check out Landgraab Family, i put both our trees there, saying, "there are 2 believed versions of the tree, one suggests that Mom Landgraab is not the mother of Mimi and Dudley" --Eduardog3000 15:01, April 14, 2010 (UTC)

Wolff family tree
Hi there, I love your work on the family trees. Do you think you can jazz up this dull version: File:WolffFamilyTree.png. Duskey ( talk ) 16:04, July 29, 2010 (UTC)

Community image template
Any reason why this was never implemented? Template:Community Image Duskey ( talk ) 12:57, August 4, 2010 (UTC)

IRC
I'm not rude on IRC btw, I just don't check that window often. If you want my attention, just say my name in the channel and I'll be notified. Duskey ( talk ) 07:30, August 22, 2010 (UTC)
 * Just wanted to make sure you saw this, if you want my attention on IRC just type "Duskey" :) Duskey ( talk ) 15:28, August 26, 2010 (UTC)

Uxie Lover  1994
I am Uxie   Lover  1994 of the Spyro wiki. I am an admin there, and the wiki's hope of returning to normal. If you have ever played at least one game in that series, please join. You are always welcome. (I also spoke with A morris about this, but she ignored me).

No offence, but that story by AC should be deleted. I am sick of her, and she even attacked the Spyro wiki once. Please don't forget about Spyro and Sparx. Uxie  Lover  1994 06:20, August 23, 2010 (UTC)


 * Just for reference: Discussion should be held at The Sims Wiki talk:Community Portal, there's already a topic there. Do remember that administrators on The Sims Wiki can only act against users who violate wikia or our own policies and guidelines. Finding and stopping cross-wiki violators is for checkusers and staff only. Duskey ( talk ) 06:36, August 23, 2010 (UTC)

Fruits
I see you started work on Watermelon and some associated templates. One thing about the category though. If we use Category:Fruits, we'll need Category:Vegetables as well at some point. Question is, can you use the Food category instead? Or maybe make a 'Fruits from Castaway Stories' category, since I don't think we'll get all the fruits from all the Sims games their own article right away. What do you think? Duskey ( talk ) 07:19, August 24, 2010 (UTC)
 * Ah okay, I think I understand it better now. Then I'd say 'Fruit' and 'Vegetable' categories are needed. They need to be under the 'Food' category I'd say. I don't think the produce from The Sims 3 has enough to get their own article each though, but the fruits from Castaway DS sounds like they could. I don't have any of those games I'm afraid. Duskey ( talk ) 07:34, August 24, 2010 (UTC)
 * No no keep them. I mean articles for fruits which only appeared in Sims 3 wouldn't have much relevant information, since they're all pretty much covered in Gardening (The Sims 3). Duskey ( talk ) 07:43, August 24, 2010 (UTC)
 * Your best bet would be Category:Users/Castaway Stories. Duskey ( talk ) 07:57, August 24, 2010 (UTC)

All that info on fruits and recipes you're adding, does that go for all console versions of The Sims 2 Castaway? Duskey ( talk ) 10:25, August 24, 2010 (UTC)
 * Well based on Wikipedia:The Sims 2: Castaway and The Sims 2 Castaway the console version is the same for all, so I do not think it is specific for the DS version. Duskey ( talk ) 09:07, August 25, 2010 (UTC)
 * That's true, but don't rush out and buy anything just for the sake of the wiki. We'll found out some other way. Duskey ( talk ) 09:40, August 25, 2010 (UTC)
 * Btw, I'm moving the recipes to a page specifically for the game. Recipes could be anything in The Sims games, it will be a disambiguation page. Duskey ( talk ) 09:43, August 25, 2010 (UTC)

RE: The Sims 2 Castaway
Yes, I own the PS2 version of TS2 Castaway. GEORGIEGIBBONS 10:19, August 25, 2010 (UTC)


 * Yep, I have started by adding a tag to the part about kids on PS2 (as I can't remember kids on the PS2 version) and I'm going to add some more information. Regards, GEORGIEGIBBONS 10:27, August 25, 2010 (UTC)

Created List of differences in Castaway releases for you if you notice stuff and wanna jot it down. Duskey ( talk ) 17:27, August 25, 2010 (UTC)

Sidebar
I'm afraid the sidebar doesn't allow #Bookmarks in the link. Well it does allow them, but they don't work :p Duskey ( talk ) 07:59, August 28, 2010 (UTC)

Era
I see you started adding era. You should probably check the discussion on its talk page first: Template talk:Era. Duskey ( talk ) 21:28, August 28, 2010 (UTC)

New main page buttons
Good work on the new main page buttons. Instead of putting them in 'Logo' there's a 'Main page buttons' category. Also check out Template talk:Contents where unused main page buttons are stored so they won't show up as unused. Duskey ( talk ) 07:44, September 4, 2010 (UTC)


 * You mean have the two red spots set to random? I'm not sure, I figured it'd be the latest new things coming out we could feature there. Eg. FLS and Barnacle Bay at the moment. I suggest they stay there until Late Night gets closer. This we always have the newest/latest releases available. It always bothered me we had links from the main page to those. I'm willing to discuss it openly on the Contents talk page if you disagree. Duskey ( talk ) 22:45, September 4, 2010 (UTC)

TS2 Castaway NDS items
Since I know you've added a lot of content from this game in the past, perhaps you should check out the current discussion: The Sims Wiki talk:Community Portal. -- Duskey talk 15:45, September 15, 2010 (UTC)

Seperate articles for hidden traits
Some users have are discussing whether it's feasible to have seperate articles for hidden traits, you should check it out since you've created the new trait pages. The Sims Wiki talk:Community Portal. -- Duskey talk 22:23, September 15, 2010 (UTC)

RE: New Family Trees
Sweet good work. But since you're asking. I saw this on the Spanish Sims Wiki. They're using ImageMaps to create multiple links in the same image, linking to the Sims. I think that's pretty clever, perhaps we should do the same with our family trees. What do you think? -- Duskey talk 08:37, September 21, 2010 (UTC)
 * No idea. I only read the help page, I haven't actually tried it. -- Duskey talk 08:50, September 21, 2010 (UTC)

PS: Remember to license and categorize uploaded images. VickyBot had to do the TS2 icons you uploaded (and between you and me, she can get a bit cranky about it). Most of them are also unused at the moment. -- Duskey talk 09:35, September 21, 2010 (UTC)

New family trees
When you created the new family trees, were the images in the family tree based on the ones I put there?
 * Hey RR! Just a heads-up, I'm doing Ambitions and Riverview now. I think I have one or two left missing in Sunset Valley, but that should be covered. The Castor family is also done.

Hey R+R!
Hey RR! Are you ready for a challange! I just created a contest, and I am inviting you to take part! If you dont want to, please stop by and vote! Its the Your Sim Story In 50 words! contest!BobNewbie (talk) 19:48, September 25, 2010 (UTC)

Melbourne
So, I've been playing The Sims 2 for PS2 for awhile, and I've never heard the neighborhood Melbourne. Maybe I'll check, but it's too late right now.
