Project Appearances
I am not great with the attractive side of wikis and making things look great so I hoped you wouldn't notice. :) 06:15, June 28, 2010 (UTC)

My Bot
Hey, my bot is now inactive due to problems with my laptop and it refusing to work again. If you want to make a bot, I could help you out. It may come in useful. 20:23, June 29, 2010 (UTC)
 * If you need one but cannot make one, then I know a couple people who have bots and wouldnt mind using them Kingcjc 20:26, June 29, 2010 (UTC)
 * It is just we should have one at all times to kick into action when needed. I would prefer a main contributor to the wiki to have one rather than an outside user. I did have that job with SolarBot and then Notepad had to screw up. 20:40, June 29, 2010 (UTC)
 * I've downloaded all the required stuff, now what? --Smiley12 was here at 05:58, June 30, 2010 (UTC)
 * You have to create a file in the families folder called simpsons.py. You have to open a notepad document, copy and paste the stuff from User:Solar Dragon/Pywikipedia and save it as a .py (just put simpsons.py, that will do it). You then need to open user-config.py in notepad and change things for your username and add simpsons where it is needed into it. If this fails, copy and paste the code into a sub-user page and I will change it for you. 07:09, June 30, 2010 (UTC)
 * 1. I downloaded Python from here and Pywikipediabot from here.


 * 2. I clicked "edit this page" on User:Solar Dragon/Pywikipedia, And copied everything there.


 * 3. I Opened a notepad and pasted the stuff saving it as "simpsons.py"
 * 4. What do I do now... "user-config.py" cant be found anywhere... --Smiley12 was here at 22:45, July 4, 2010 (UTC)
 * Sorry I didn't see this sooner. Back in the previous file (out of the families file), it should be there. ☆ The   Solar   Dragon  08:37, July 6, 2010 (UTC)

thank you
Thank you for the links to help me.I'ill be sure to talk to other editors. thank you very much.
 * No Problem! --Smiley12 was here at 03:36, July 6, 2010 (UTC)

Blocked User template
Could you make a template saying "this user is blocked infinitely because: Reason" or something? Or, do you think this is a bad idea? ☆ The   Solar   Dragon  21:04, July 7, 2010 (UTC)
 * Yep, I've seen that on some wikis, I'll make it soon --Smiley12 was here at 21:33, July 7, 2010 (UTC)
 * Template:User Blocked --Smiley12 was here at 19:24, July 7, 2010 (UTC)
 * Applied to users up until 2008. Most of the others seem like unacceptable user names etc. On another note, check recent changes. I apparently edited a user page at around 1:00 in the morning UTC even though I did it around 6:00 and I wasn't up at 1. ☆ The   Solar   Dragon  00:24, July 8, 2010 (UTC)
 * was that to User:NNewt84's user page? You apparently added the Blocked User template before I even created it (that wasn't there a few hours ago) --Smiley12 was here at 06:01, July 8, 2010 (UTC)
 * Yeah. Kind of odd. ☆ The   Solar   Dragon  06:32, July 8, 2010 (UTC)

Achievements
Hi, if you want to customise then, see Special:AchievementsCustomize. I will try to think of good things to call them and good pictures to go in. ☆ The   Solar   Dragon  07:29, July 16, 2010 (UTC)

thanks
thanx-- - WildMIKE123v5Talk 00:36, July 17, 2010 (UTC)
 * You're welcome! --Smiley12 was here at 00:37, July 17, 2010 (UTC)

New user Boxes
Hi, since you were making those edits user boxes, how about a 1000 edits (gold) and 5000 edits (platinum). Also, could you make a box saying this user has 1000 points as well please? Thanks, ☆ The   Solar   Dragon  ☆ 06:09, July 19, 2010 (UTC)
 * I was going to do that, but just got distracted by the badges. I'll put them on your user page when I'm done, hope you don't mind. --Smiley12 was here at 06:32, July 19, 2010 (UTC)
 * OK. Except I don't have 1000 points yet. ☆ The   Solar   Dragon  ☆ 06:42, July 19, 2010 (UTC)

Project Characters
How do you join project characters? I would like to join. TheSimpsons 00:06, July 27, 2010 (UTC)

Hey just saying hello and thanks for all the work you have done on this wiki.

Semi Protect template
Hi, could you make something like "This article is semi protected due to: reason" Thanks, ☆ The   Solar   Dragon  ☆ 20:53, July 28, 2010 (UTC)
 * Do you mean that lock thing in the top right corner, I could make one that looks more Simpsons like, or do you mean one like the cleanup and featured ones. --Smiley12 was here at 07:09, July 29, 2010 (UTC)
 * No, I think an actual template will be more clear to explain why it is locked to stop people coming to me asking why they can't edit it. ☆ The   Solar   Dragon  ☆ 07:39, July 29, 2010 (UTC)
 * Template:Semiprotected. If you think it's a good idea I will make the featured article, episode, picture template in that format as well, I think it looks better. --Smiley12 was here at 06:09, August 2, 2010 (UTC)

Ralph Moments
Hi, could you think of any more to add to User:Solar Dragon/Ralph Moments as I would like someone else to help. Thanks, ☆ The   Solar   Dragon  ☆ 07:58, July 31, 2010 (UTC)

About the temporarily main page layout
You could've used that for next April 1st instead, it's like wasting a nuke. *frowny face* Ldude893 15:18, August 1, 2010 (UTC)
 * It's Ralph month though. Featured article, quote and picture are Ralph related. ☆ The   Solar   Dragon  ☆ 15:21, August 1, 2010 (UTC)
 * I'll let you in on it, April 1st will have something cooler and more suitable for April Fools... --Smiley12 was here at 05:54, August 2, 2010 (UTC)

New badges
I wanted to create some new badges for edits to production pages, in hopes of encouraging users to start to focus on that field. I tried to make some badges, but I don't have large versions of the border templates. Could you send me those? -- Brian McClure 23:51, August 4, 2010 (UTC)
