[edit] On Voting

Yes, I did put down two votes on Featured Wikia/vote. If you take a look at Featured Wikia page, however, you'll see that User:AmishThrasher put his vote there, and my guess is he didn't find the right place to put it. So you see, the vote should actually be valid. --Yunzhong Hou

[edit] Stargate wiki

Hey, it's me GingerM from the Stargate wiki. I was hoping if you could change my rights from a sysop to a bureaucrat and sysop, as at the moment there are no active bureaucrats on the wiki to ask.

Thanks,

[edit] Wikia Mentoring for Legal Wiki

OK, SO HELLO cOCOAzEN! I mean Good MAEN! (it's E/N now in Montreal where i am.) {this is a copy of the note i just wrote to both of the people who had written back to me on my userpage -- i didn't know i had one when i asked for help, so that's why i'm only answering now ;-)... that said, i still need help, only different help this time, & that's why it may sometimes sound like i'm talking to more than one person... :-) World peace to you too -- it's what i always wish for too :-)}

WOW! SO, yes, I am a newbie, and i have bitten the bullet, and I am starting off on this adventure on my own (as opposed to beginning to write for other wikis, which is undoubltedly a good idea yet... well, i'll continue the more relevant news below). Since November, there's been some progression! First, let me say that I only read your answers now - I am too excited to be ashamed, as I think my head is working better today than it did when I was first fishing around for info. I see that 'Help: Tutorial' is just the beginning of the iceberg ;-) when it comes to info on using wikia ;-)...

So, the news: 1) Wikia empowered me to take on legal.wikia (http://legal.wikia.com/wiki/Main_Page).Its mandate is not limited to McGill law. The catchall phrase is "transsystemic legal education", which will mean that special TLC will be needed for the site's design, if it's to make any sense :-) 2) I know exactly where I want to go with this 3) I have received very positive feedback from other students whom I approached around the Faculty (and others beyond it too, since the project aims to take legal ed beyond the tower) 4) I now understand that to realise my vision, I need templates. That's the good news. The bad news is where I'm flailing like a newborn dolphin out-of-water, and the main reason I've been delaying entry of this wiki online, and not inviting other contributors: 5) I have no idea how to program style sheets or templates. 6) I want the site to begin with a certain inherent organization, otherwise 1) it will get very messy, and 2) users won't understand how it is original, practical or unique; and this will deter them from contributing and helping it to grow.

I plan to upload the 'architecture'/org. plan of how the site will be structured tomorrow. I've done some chatting with GreenReaper on IRC (baby steps, baby steps... I'm so happy to be making contact with real people to help! THANK YOUs.). He recommended just getting started w/ content. However, he said he did not know about legal wikias and what might be specific to them. I'M REALLY LOOKING FOR A CSS-KNOWLEDGEABLE COLLABORATOR AT THIS POINT. It will make it so much better from the start. Any leads? :-) Thank you, Peace and Goodnight. S. --SylvstaB. 03:22, 25 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Hey

Hey:) Just to let you know I also edit wikia's sometimes:) Peace:) --Sir James Paul 16:22, 18 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks for the welcome!

Thanks for the welcome! I never know whether I should reply on my own talk page or the other person's talk page. :-) --Dr. Chuck 22:43, 26 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] "zwierzkom"

There's no such word in Polish, but the word "zwierzę" means an animal. It might be "teen slang", in that case it could mean "those animals". If you need more, give me the whole sentence :). Datrio 18:11, 28 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Feature Wikia Votes

How does this work now? Are the votes from March valid for this month's run? Or must we vote anew? ― Thailog 16:50, 1 April 2007 (UTC)

They are still good. See Featured Wikia/FAQ. --CocoaZen 04:00, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks!!

Thanks for the welcome. Have a nice day :) --Jorgechp (ke t kuentas?) 12:28, 8 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] CocoaZen,

Thanks for the welcome.

I work at Independence Academy Charter School in Grand Junction, Colorado. My partner and I are organizing an assignment for the students in our 7th and 8th grade computer classes. This assignment requires adding articles on various topics to the Grand Junction wikia page and perhaps creating pages for other cities in our area. Any help or advice you could give us would be most welcome.

Thank again,

[edit] Thank you!

Thank you for the welcome, but the french isn't my native language. Greetings! --C`est moi ^Parlez 00:59, 18 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] thanks

Thanks for the change.

Could you tell me where exactly should I start a new wiki.

Will reply on your talk page. -- CocoaZen 16:13, 20 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Die-perspektive Request

Hi CocoaZen!

Thanks for making a comment on my request! I was just wondering if you could tell me what the procedure now is? I couldn't see anything on the help pages... :(

--Philip00 17:15, 17 May 2007 (UTC)

Thanks again for your help. Sorry, but I didn't understand the thing with the support-template. Did you mean that I just have to add it to the request page or do I have to do anything specific with the potential contributor's ID's?

--Philip00 13:21, 18 May 2007 (UTC)

I see... well thanks a lot... --87.78.127.12 09:28, 19 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] MacGyver Wiki

Hi. Thanks for your welcome. In fact, I didn't make the original request for the MacGyver Wiki. I was hunting around to see if one existed and stumbled upon Wikia. Turns out somebody else had exactly the same thought just a few hours before me! Hopefully enough other folks will register their interest and we can get something off the ground. Thanks for your support.--TechNic 04:31, 26 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Please open the Ben 10 wiki

Thanks for opening, please can it be open like, created! (i know you cant CocoaZen!). Please can you also on the requests homepage, put a message on to say: FILL IN ALL FEILDS, cause they are loads of rejected requests because of this! --StinkFly me gooped! (talk) 17:54, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Wiki request

Not being fluent in things wiki, I wonder if there is some other positive action I ought to take to have the wikia community evaluate/critique this wiki proposal: New Sacred Text Project. Thanks for your input! --Underhill 15:37, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Izzyvideo Wiki request rejected? Please help me get it approved!

I'm not sure why my request to create a wiki for IzzyVideo got rejected. Please help me get it approved. I would much prefer using the resources here versus my own hosted solution, currently at wiki.izzyvideo.com. Any help you can give me, I surely appreciate. Thanks! --Izzy Video

[edit] Towns, villages and cities

Dear CZ, I hope you are not spending more time on Facebook than on Wikia.

If you could drag yourself away from your primary Wikia interests for an hour or so every month, your presence on Cities: would be a big thrill. Our energetic Florida resident lasted only a month, so he sits there at the top of the rankings without an awful lot to show for it. You're still rank 3, which says a bit about the site, but it is getting some real content added in a spasmodic way. I even added several paragraphs to Weston-super-Mare tonight, inspired by a group invitation from a Somerset siren on Facebook named Ann.

You could at least change your Wikicity reference!!

Best wishes -- Robin Patterson 15:32, 29 July 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Thank you for the welcome!

... Just like my heading says. Thanks! Nik in Notherland 22:02, 4 August 2008 (UTC)
