Re: Deleted pages
The "oldest siblings" and "youngest siblings" categories were deleted because even though birth order is very important in real life, it has very little to do with South Park (except for the relationship between Shelley and Stan. But that is obvious.) It's the same as if we had "Left handed" and "Right handed" categories, the creators don't really look at that when making the show.

As for the other content that is indeed useless, it will be cleaned up shortly, maybe not today but soon. Also I didn't think you were adding those categories just to get achievement points, if anything, I thought that you were sucked into the whole "making up unneeded categories" thing, I saw your other edits and they looked really good so I wouldn't expect you of achievement boosting.

I'd like to apologize, I should have contacted you right after deleting those categories, but I was too lazy and had a lot of edit-checking to go through. And thanks for talking this out with me. Cheers. --Anon talk 23:45, August 29, 2010 (UTC)

Religion category
It's not a bad idea, certainly more relevant to the show then Episodes with illnesses caategory.

Go ahead and create it :) --Anon talk 17:47, August 31, 2010 (UTC)

Great Job On Editing (:

Celebrities
I think categories like Adult characters, Male characters and Female characters should only apply to the regular characters of South Park and not the occasional celebrities that just show up for a second. --Anon talk 16:22, September 10, 2010 (UTC)

Obama
I'm sort-off with you on that one. I think that the celebrities that appear often or have a big role in an episode could fall under "regular character categories". But the categories that I have in mind are:


 * "One-off characters" - If the celebrity appears in just one episode, but has a major role in it.


 * "Minor characters" - If a celebrity has multiple 'minor' cameos on the show.

But I still don't think they belong in the 'Male', 'Female' and 'Adult' categories since it's common knowledge, and if somebody doesn't know it then they should look it up on wikipedia. --Anon talk 00:51, September 11, 2010 (UTC)


 * Haha, I read both messages anyway :D And you do make a good point in the first one, sometimes I forget that categories are there so people can find whatever they're looking for, but still, if they're looking for celebrities then "celebrities" and its subcategories are the only categories they need :)


 * I might start a new "Community Discussion", so we can all figure out the proper categorization policy. Until now, I made up the categorization rules myself, based on other wikis policies and my own weird view and interpretation of them.


 * P.S. The smiley faces are indeed weird but nice Θ͜Θ --Anon talk 03:57, September 11, 2010 (UTC)


 * That's how I would do it, but my mind's always changing, and right now I'm on a fence about this. I just checked out the Simpsons wiki, to see their categorization policy, and it appears they categorize celebrities using male, female and adult categories. And since they're a much more established wiki then we are then I think we should follow their lead. --Anon talk 20:34, September 11, 2010 (UTC)

Celebrities
Yeah, I'm pretty much the only active admin right now, more admins should be active when new episodes start airing.

I'm currently in the process of writing a new community discussion, so people can change the existing rules or propose new ones. So what ever the community decides will be the new rules, but we'll need everybody to have their say. --Anon talk 23:15, September 11, 2010 (UTC)

October Featured Article
The Spirit of Christmas would make a great featured article, I'm surprised that it hasn't been featured before :) --Anon talk</tt> 04:54, September 12, 2010 (UTC)

South Park Answers
I sure can! I think I'll do it in a form of a picture, I just need to find the right one, edit it and add some text.

Also the link is on the main page, but it's at the very bottom, and nobody scrolls that far down :) --Anon talk</tt> 01:39, September 13, 2010 (UTC)


 * I just made one, it's not as good as it could be, but it will do for now. I might improve it later, or if you want to, you can make it better :)


 * Look at the main page now. You can also check out the Answers template. --Anon talk</tt> 01:57, September 13, 2010 (UTC)


 * Yeah, having two pictures of the boys next to each other is a bit much, also I wanted to use different color for the font, but due to my short attention spam, I settled on black :)


 * You can find the font here. --Anon talk</tt> 02:07, September 13, 2010 (UTC)


 * The picture on the main page looks great! And there's already an increase of activity on the answers wiki. --Anon talk</tt> 14:43, September 13, 2010 (UTC)

Hello
Hello there Davoo i understand that you are not sure abou the categorys that has been building like one-off Characters and other stuff but the reason why there are on is because Categorys help people find there ways around or help them to find what they are looking for thats what a category is dude. I understand of what you are saying about there sould be less or it even worst taken off for the celebrities in wiki i know you been saying about it like don't put this or don't put that e.g Adult Characters but i Think it works and it's sill does just plz tell me why do you what to change it i am the man for the job at categorys Thank you for reading this AdeoF 22:35, September 13, 2010 (UTC)


 * No. I'm not talking about what category goes where, I'm not saying categories should be deleted. I'm saying that you should NOT modify the rules just so it's easier to grind up achievements, and you know it. Stop bullshitting around, stop thinking you don't know what I'm talking about. We're here to make the website better and easier to navigate, and if that means doing a lot of category-editing that gives you lots of points, that's fine! But you can't do it JUST because it gives you points. These achievements have no value. No real reward. No one but the 20 people on the list even care about it. You need to learn the message from the Warcraft episode. I don't apologize for talking so long at you about this, because I'm afraid you're just going to bullshit around more if I don't drill it into your head very, very clearly. Also, don't say "duuude, chill out!" because I am not angry; all I want is the "let's do this because it gets me more points" mentality to stop around here. Davoo 01:18, September 14, 2010 (UTC)

RP Hello
Davoo look i understand of what your saying ok i know your trying to help people in this wiki and help around here and other people and says that you will not do bad things like being a good boy well i think thats a good thing i am not going to say any thing else.

I what to talk about is this

can you plz answer this will like to say is that why do you care so much about Boosting even said about it in you user page just c'mon mate? (btw i don't boost you can ask Annonnimus if you like i just make the categorys looks good)

Oh yea if you what to say back you don't need to edit you can just go to my user go to talk page and

Leave message thank you AdeoF 19:26, September 14, 2010 (UTC)

RE: Banning people
It's good to hear you'll stick around :)

The option to to block someone appears right at the top of their 'contributions' page. Or you can go to Special:Block, insert their username or I.P. address and take it from there.

Also check out 'Blocking' on the Help wiki for more useful info on blocking.

I saw the new rules on "South Park Answers", they are a bit harsh, I hope they're not permanent. The one rule that I don't like is, that only users with permission can answer questions, I understand the reason for it, but it doesn't feel right. But it can stay until the wiki is sorted out. --Anon talk</tt> 00:48, September 18, 2010 (UTC)

Re: The answers website (again)
I'm glad your method is working :)

Thank you for getting involved in the wiki. --Anon talk</tt> 14:42, September 20, 2010 (UTC)

Re: Kelly
Hehe, people still don't know what our policy on categorization is :)

I hope this'll change, because I'd really hate to block people for this kind of thing.

And don't worry, it wasn't you :D --Anon talk</tt> 00:09, September 22, 2010 (UTC)

Category abuse
Those categories really need to be cleaned up. I think what we should do is get rid of all the categories for episodes focusing on those minor characters and instead put those episodes in a single category, like "Episodes focusing on others" (I'm not very creative :) ).

What do you think? --Anon talk</tt> 00:24, September 25, 2010 (UTC)


 * I think that'd be good. Sorry for the late response, I was really busy yesterday and today. --Anon talk</tt> 22:49, September 25, 2010 (UTC)

Mr. Garrison
Nice Choice! I'd have to say that would be my second or third choice but still a must buy simply for the possibility of containing such great comedic episodes as Mr. Garrison's Fancy New Vagina, D-Yikes! and Eek a Penis!

Templates
Great job on them templates! They make the articles look way better, they also made me laugh :) --Anon talk</tt> 22:58, September 26, 2010 (UTC)


 * The new images will surely catch users attention, this'll help to get the message across. The spoiler template looks much better, since the last picture had pretty much nothing to do with spoiling things. But my favorite is the stub template, it's just perfect for this wiki :D --Anon talk</tt> 23:13, September 26, 2010 (UTC)

Re: Character ages
I absolutely agree, we shouldn't state the birth years of the characters since they change every season and they tend cause confusion.

I'll try to get my bot to do the job, if I can find an option for "replacing text" on AWB :) --Anon talk</tt> 15:05, September 27, 2010 (UTC)

Hmm...


Both of the timers display the same time for me, they show the time until the episode airs on the east coast, you might be getting a different time because you live in the "central time zone", or SPS thinks you live there. --Anon talk</tt> 01:45, September 28, 2010 (UTC)


 * Maybe people in the "central zone" have better things to do then spend their time on the internet :D --Anon talk</tt> 20:35, September 28, 2010 (UTC)

Mistake
This is myself telling myself that I just made a post in my OWN page when it was supposed to go to someone else. Great going! Davoo 04:38, September 29, 2010 (UTC)

Badges
I don't know if it's too late to do this or what, but I'd like to see the higher-ranking badges not repeating like they do.

1 edit: Poor as a McCormick

5 edits: Amateur Editor

10 edits: Badass Editing Skills

25 edits: Edit-san

50 edits: Keep Fighting

100 edits: The No Life Badge

250 edits: High on Editing

500 edits: Wealthy as a Black

1,000 edits: Wealthy as a Black

1,500 edits: Wealthy as a Black

It's no fun if you don't get a new badge name each time. What if it continued something like... this... here's a few badges that I just came up with in a few minutes, but I think people would totally want to have them.

1,000 edits: Total Non-conformist

1,500 edits: The Editor this Town Needs

2,000 edits: Articles are your Bitches (w. Pimp Butters picture)

3,000 edits: The Editor of a Generation

4,000 edits: Editing Monster (w. Manbearpig picture)

5,000 edits: Reincarnated mastermind

7,500 edits: Biggest Editor in the Universe

10,000 edits The Badge of Ultimate Authoritah

About Badges:
If you where admin, than you did know we could do nothing you can ask an wikia admin, becouse we can edit only the name and the badge, but you mean that there are not so much badges untill 500 edit, becouse there are no more badges, thats why its repeating :PThangthang15 18:38, September 29, 2010 (UTC)

Another thing, if you stay here for 3 months, you gain Adminship :P

Re: Objects
I thought that a single "objects category" was enough, but if you can create all the missing object articles, then I guess we can make it work :)

As for making an "objects edit-track", that wouldn't really work, since, as far as I know, the edit track would only give badges for editing the articles in the 'Objects category' but not its subcategories, so we would need to make separate edit tracks for all the different 'object categories', or add 'objects category' to all object pages. --Anon talk</tt> 18:46, September 29, 2010 (UTC)


 * We could put the category back along with the more specific objects categories, just as we did with the 'characters category'. --Anon <tt>talk</tt> 11:34, September 30, 2010 (UTC)


 * I'll use my A.W.E.S.O.M-O 4000 to add those pages to the 'objects category'. --Anon <tt>talk</tt> 12:54, September 30, 2010 (UTC)

FAQ
If you got any questions abou South Park, let me know. You can ask me them [here].

Re
You got more power than normal users like:


 * 1) Ban Users


 * 1) Delete Pages


 * 1) Access To Other Pages


 * 1) Access To Leaderboard Edit

You Got An Other Level Of Adminship, that is Rollback.TT15

Wait, there's more:


 * Edit the interface (via MediaWiki name spaces).


 * Editing the badges.


 * Access to restricted "Special pages".


 * Reverting multiple edits with a click of a mouse.


 * Mark rolled-back edits as bot edits.


 * Protect pages and edit protected pages.


 * Browse deleted articles.

Access levels:


 * Rollback - Gives you the ability to quickly revers multiple edits and the action being marked as a bot edit.


 * Admin - All the things that are stated above.


 * Bureaucrat - All the access an admin has, plus:


 * Changing user rights (adding/removing admins)


 * Not be affected by rate limits (moving a lot of pages at once)

If you want to know more about user access levels, see Special:ListGroupRights. --Anon <tt>talk</tt> 11:34, September 30, 2010 (UTC)

Re: Badge question
Wikia doesn't yet allow local admins too create custom badges nor to extend an existing edit-track. The staff did say however that this option might be available in the future, but we can't be sure if it will. I agree that it's much more fun to get a unique achievement every time, but for now we'll just have to keep our fingers crossed and wait until wikia finishes their work with the 'new look' and focuses on the achievements again. --Anon <tt>talk</tt> 11:34, September 30, 2010 (UTC)

Re: Avatar
We've had this problem for about a week now, this happens all over wikia, I tried to check if it was true after I heard about the problem, and I messed up my avatar as a result. For more info visit this forum on central.

But there's something else that concerns me. You said, you've been automatically logged-out, this is another problem on wikia. I only saw it being reported by a single user, and am unsure whether it's the same same problem as you're getting.

For more info on this bug, see this forum at the Vault and this one o Central. If this problem persists, you should contact wikia about it. I hope it was just a one time occurrence :)

P.S. Did you see the message form A.W.E.S.O.M-o above this one? --Anon <tt>talk</tt> 13:04, October 1, 2010 (UTC)

RE:bullys
Well i what to say is that there all Eeady a cateagory for Evil Characters called Villains and i think "Whats the point?" we don't need categorys that has a close name to it. It's like e.g Heroes/good guys but if the boss (Annonnimus) whats this category on the wiki then my mistake AdeoF 15:01, October 2, 2010 (UTC)

Animals
I also saw it before, I was meaning to undo it but I either forgot about it or (what you said (I'm half-dead so no point in getting creative)), it did make me laugh when I saw it though :) --Anon <tt>talk</tt> 03:17, October 3, 2010 (UTC)

Re: Bullies again
People still don't understand that they need to read the description of the category before adding it to an article.

In addition to the examples you pointed out, I would add some celebrities, like Jennifer Lopez who's just a bitch and John Edwards who's a douchebag.

I'm gonna clean it up a bit, right now. --Anon <tt>talk</tt> 15:52, October 3, 2010 (UTC)

This is why the Bullies category does not work AdeoF 20:47, October 6, 2010 (UTC)

Image Needed Picture
I think wikia's screwing up images again. When I added the image template to Captain Hindsight's article, I saw that the image that gets transcluded is the cropped one, so I checked the history for the image and saw that the last two uploads are cropped, I reverted it to the original version but it still doesn't update. You can try uploading it again to see if it'll work for you, otherwise we'll have to wait until wikia fixes the problem or upload the image to a different name and update the template. --Anon <tt>talk</tt> 02:31, October 29, 2010 (UTC)
