Wikia - creating communities

[edit] janitor behaviour.

Hello Angela, i would like to call your attention to the latest disruptive actions of one of your janitors. Would you be so so kind as to ask him to stop his destructive behaviour. I think this proves that he is the one that is sabotaging and provoking, not me. His actions are the only reason i abandoned two wikis i founded myself and which made me really hate Wikia because you let a guy like him go unchecked and even make him semi-staff. I would like to ask you to tell this guy to let off. I don't know him. He has been harassing me ever since het picked that fight on http://paradox.wikia.com.

Tell him to stay away from me. This is an official complaint. if this is not the right way to complain, i will do it by Email. {{SUBST:Bruger:D. G. Neree/sig}} 14:49, 25 April 2008 (UTC)

DGNeree, I strongly suspect that this is a vandal account and not the actions of a trusted and respected Wikia janitor. Why don't you calm down and politely ask for a Checkuser first before hurling accusations of vandalism at members of the community? -- Codeine 15:07, 25 April 2008 (UTC)

Codeine, are you for real? If i remember well, you were the one calling me a troll on irc after which Manticore banned me. Your testimony of a trusted and respected janitor means nothing. I've checked the IP. It is Manticore. {{SUBST:Bruger:D. G. Neree/sig}} 15:30, 25 April 2008 (UTC)

I honestly don't recall, but if I did call you a troll, it would be because you were trolling. If you wish to discuss that or any other issue further, I suggest we take it to my talk page and not clutter Angela's. My response here was intended to assist you in determining the true identity of the person who defaced your wiki in an attempt to keep a pleasant and respectable atmosphere within the community. -- Codeine 15:47, 25 April 2008 (UTC)

How could you possibly have my IP? -- Manticore (talk) 15:52, 25 April 2008 (UTC)

Codeine, and how would i do that, since I was permabanned from Uncyclopedia by someone, i forgot his name, but who i remember only from spamming inanities on irc... oh yes, the Led balloon or something like that. I wasn't trolling then, even if it is possible to troll on #uncyclopedia. On the contrary: I have always objected to the way people there are subject to just the filth and the random degradation and op-abuse from which Manticore has obviously learnt a lot lately. But yes, let's leave angela in peace. i've said what i wanted to. Sorry Angela. {{SUBST:Bruger:D. G. Neree/sig}} 15:59, 25 April 2008 (UTC)

I'm sorry to hear oncyclopedia is being vandalised, but it's not a Wikia site, so I can't look into who is causing the problem. I have no reason to believe it's our Manticore. Vandals quite often take the names of respected Wikia or Wikipedia users when they're causing trouble. Angela (talk) 01:02, 1 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Dagoth Ur, Mad God

Please do not make him an Administrator he is a vandal. He has been banned from UESP for constant vandalism, making death threats against other users, personal attacks, harrasment, making nonsense articles...etc. I have also banned him from the Elder Scrolls Wiki for simmalar offenses. Just thought you should know that before bestowing any responsibility upon him. - KAJ ^{– Talk} 11:07, 30 April 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for the info. Angela (talk) 01:02, 1 May 2008 (UTC)

I specifically wanted to be one on the Tolkien Languages wiki. Dagoth Ur, Mad God 06:33, 3 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] WidgetDashboard

On Special:WidgetDashboard, the "Most Visited" widget links to Special:Popularpages on "More...", a non-existant special page, when it should link to Special:Top/most visited. It only happens on the Widget Dashboard, though, so I thought you should know. --C Teng ^talk 00:40, 1 May 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for pointing it out. I'll let the tech team know. Angela (talk) 01:02, 1 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Update on Christian Music forum problems

Some of the problems I had with the forums are fixed. All I need is permission to access the Music Topics forum. Please thank the engineers for me. Will (Talk - contribs) 03:48, 1 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Help

I am saying this hear as I keep getting blocked by Rs4life07 on the Call of Duty Wiki, I try to post am essage, but all he is doing is waiting to block me every time. Please stop it, I want to edit, but Rs4life is enjoying this, making this miserable for me. I have tried to end it, but he is not listening, he wants to be a power hungry admin, because of this, I will never edit again, because I am not feeling welcome. I want you to end this before it destroys the Call of Duty Wiki.

[edit] Hi, about game programming wiki

I think Game Dev Wiki is inactive. I would like to adopt it and in sometime, when I have written a bunch of articles, I would appreciate you to make me admin... or bureaucrat, I don't know if that is common policy for adoption. Moreover, I would have been bureaucrat if the wiki did not exist but it exists, so I am requesting it.

You may think why I request adminship before writing something useful there, the point is the main page is protected. Or you could unprotect the main for me to be able to edit it. As the page is protected I can create pages but nobody would see the links unless they watch Recent Changes or Special:Allpages.

I just beg you to unprotect the page. I could be of great help there as I have been a game programmer for 8 years and I have succesfully programmed more than 10 games.

Please... and thanks in advance...

[edit] RPGStarter Launch Preparations

Hi Angela! With the Age of Conan release a few days away, we were hoping to finalize the RPGStarter Wiki and prepare it for use as a template for MMO server wikis. However, for almost two weeks we have been unable to raise communications with our previous Wikia staff contacts involving this project. We feel that we have a very promising plan for using the RPGStarter, but without support, the wikis cannot go into operation. Would you be available to talk about this project with me in IRC, Skype, or whatever program you would be comfortable with? I should be available weekdays around 10:00AM and onward, Sydney time. Thank you! --TarrVetus 12:27, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
