Plagiarism
Hi, may I direct you to Wikisimpsons:Plagiarism, an official policy page. Please read this before making any more 'edits' if copy and paste from Wikipedia is counted as editing. ☆ The  Solar  Dragon  ( Talk ) ☆ 21:29, May 15, 2010 (UTC)
 * Oh, I'm sorry. It's just on other wikis I edit on it isn't as frown upon as it must be here. I'll keep in mind your policy. Thanks! Effluvium 21:32, May 15, 2010 (UTC)
 * Other wikis... Are they small wikis at all as generally, larger wikis do not like it and will often sanction users who do so. Anyway, please bare this warning in mind. Thanks for understanding. ☆ The  Solar  Dragon  ( Talk ) ☆ 21:37, May 15, 2010 (UTC)

Removing Talk Page Comments
Hi, in accordance with Wikisimpsons:Talk page, you should not remove talk page comments, even those on your own talk page. Thanks, ☆ The  Solar  Dragon  ( Talk ) ☆ 18:04, May 18, 2010 (UTC)


 * Sorry, I don't mean to cause any trouble. Effluvium 18:05, May 18, 2010 (UTC)


 * That's OK. It is just in case you need to look up and old comment or something or have it 'as evidence' in case a user does something on your talk page that can be used against them, say vandalism. ☆ The  Solar  Dragon  ( Talk ) ☆ 18:07, May 18, 2010 (UTC)


 * OK. Thanks! Effluvium 18:12, May 18, 2010 (UTC)

American History X-cellent Promo Image
Hi, I was just wondering whether you are sure that this is the promo image for that episode. It is the only Promo image I could find and am not sure if it is the right one for the episode. If you have a rock solid source then that would be helpful. Thanks, ☆ The  Solar  Dragon  ( Talk ) ☆ 15:04, May 19, 2010 (UTC)


 * Hey! To be honest, I'm not entirely sure if its the promo image either. <--here is the website I found it on. Hope this helps! Effluvium 15:11, May 19, 2010 (UTC)

Template:Season
OK, should work now. Just a couple of mistakes and I have improved it. I have added in removable parameters so if left blank, they won't show up. Your mistakes were:
 * 1) It is case sensitive. Some parameters in the coding were different to those in the use.
 * 2) You didn't include the bit for the Use section. This would display the Use section on each page you put the infobox on.

Other than that, it was a good first try, unless it wasn't your first try then not so good. :) ☆ The  Solar  Dragon  ( Talk ) ☆ 20:38, May 21, 2010 (UTC)

Thanks so much for fixing that for me! And yes, it was a first try :P Effluvium 20:39, May 21, 2010 (UTC)

 * Sorry, but I'm not into Pokemon and wouldn't know what to do at your wiki. Good luck with it anyway! Thanks! Effluvium 15:38, May 28, 2010 (UTC)

Signature
Hi, in future, please don't add the subst: bit at the beginning of your signature. This gives a massive amount of code on the page. It is especially a lot as yours is in a sort of table. Thanks, ☆ The Solar Dragon  ( Talk - Contribs.) ☆ 09:59, May 30, 2010 (UTC)


 * Hi Solar Dragon! I just tried to get rid of the SUBST at the beginning of the signature in my prefernences but it just added itself back in after I saved. How can I get around this? Thanks!   Effluvium    talk    contributions    email   10:05, May 30, 2010 (UTC)


 * Yeah, I just noticed that it did the same for me. I am going to contact Wikia about this I think. ☆ The Solar Dragon  ( Talk - Contribs.) ☆ 10:07, May 30, 2010 (UTC)


 * OK. After Wikia sort it out - I'll be happy to sort it out. Thanks!   Effluvium    talk    contributions    email   10:09, May 30, 2010 (UTC)


 * OK. Just sent a message now. This is the first time I have seen this happen. It has worked all other times I have seen it used. The reason of the template thing is mainly to save space in talk pages so it is kind of stupid. ☆ The Solar Dragon  ( Talk - Contribs.) ☆ 10:10, May 30, 2010 (UTC)


 * This is the first time I've created a custom signature, so this is all new to me! But let me know when it gets sorted out and I'll be happy to get rid of the SBST bit. Thanks!   Effluvium    talk    contributions    email   10:15, May 30, 2010 (UTC)


 * Umm, you mean subst: :) Custom signatures are a lot better than the default ones. I feel that all admins and great users should have a custom signature. ☆ The Solar Dragon  ( Talk - Contribs.) ☆ 10:20, May 30, 2010 (UTC)


 * Haha, yeah, SUBST! Sorry, about that. And yes, I agree with you about the cutom signature thing. I felt I should make one, as I don't think I'll be going anywhere in a while. I love the show and the wiki too much! And good job on the yellow buttons by the way. The wiki looks great!   Effluvium    talk    contributions    email   10:28, May 30, 2010 (UTC)


 * Thanks. It isn't hard to generate the button code. There is a generator on the Help Wikia. Just type in the HTNL colour code and out comes the code. Copy and paste into Common.js and done. ☆ The Solar Dragon  ( Talk - Contribs.) ☆ 10:38, May 30, 2010 (UTC)


 * Wow. Sounds quite easy actually. You've done such a good job on here! I visited the wiki a few years back (when I wasn't registered) and its come such a long way. Its one of the best Simpsons sites around, if not THE BEST, and I love contributing. Oh by the way, thanks for sorting out that Season 9 tab template for me. That's been bugging me for a while.   Effluvium    talk    contributions    email   10:47, May 30, 2010 (UTC)


 * There is only one Simpsons wiki better than us and that is Spanish. We are the best English wiki. All others have shut down. And, the new skin only came around this year after I asked for it. Then JaffaCakeLover got an improved logo and background image, removing the bird and The Simpsons from it and making the logo look better, in HD quality you could say. ☆ The Solar Dragon  ( Talk - Contribs.) ☆ 10:52, May 30, 2010 (UTC)


 * I'll have to check out the Spanish wiki and have a look. However, the logo for our wiki is amazing! I love it! So why did the other language wikis shut down then? Something to do with no editors?

 * Firstly, how many colons is that now? :) Also, I said it is non Wikia English wikis that shut down. Mostly because they have to fund their own wikis and don't want to any more. Many Wikia wikis are inactive, some of our foreign ones are. ☆ The Solar Dragon  ( Talk - Contribs.) ☆ 11:01, May 30, 2010 (UTC)


 * Haha, I was thinking the same thing! Oh, right, non-Wikia wikis. Similar to The Infosphere then...Well, anyway, I'm concentrating on getting most of the tabs complete on pretty much all the episodes. The red-link tabs have been annoying me for a bit - so I'm using my half-term holiday to try and get through most of them. Wish me luck :P Also, didn't JaffaCakeLover import the tab system? <span style="background-color:White; color:Black; -moz-border-radius-topleft:10px; -moz-border-radius-bottomleft:10px">  Effluvium  <span style="background-color:orange; color:white; -moz-border-radius-bottomleft:10px; -moz-border-radius-topleft:10px">  talk    contributions  <span style="background-color:orange; color:white; -moz-border-radius-bottomright:10px; -moz-border-radius-topright:10px">  email   11:06, May 30, 2010 (UTC)

Decided to start a new row of comments as it is getting stupidly long now. It was Kingcjc who made it by the looks of it, looking at the history. A bit sad there are only two active admins now as so many of them have now gone. ☆ The Solar Dragon  ( Talk - Contribs.) ☆ 11:13, May 30, 2010 (UTC) Anyway, come on IRC to talk easier. Link is here. ☆ The Solar Dragon  ( Talk - Contribs.) ☆ 11:14, May 30, 2010 (UTC)
