The reason of all my "whining" on the IW is beacuse of the low quality of vast majority of the ideas back there. I just wanted to bring that wiki back to its former glory.
Plus I would go for a 6-month block. Not harsh, still fair (since I didn't whine as much as I did back on 2012-Jan 2013 and actually contributed the wiki with some ideas).
You have admin rights on that wiki, and can unblock him if you feel that's best for the wiki. You may want to look a bit more at the edits he made before getting blocked though...
How can you delete a page off OUR wiki. what was wrong with it. was it in breach of any regulations. it wasn't attacking anyone or any group. it wasn't overly vulgar or explicit and it wasn't copied from anywhere. on top of that NO ONE views the wiki in question. the page does no harm. Can you please tell me why you removed it here.
ass, vulgar? grow up. C%$#T is vulgar. ass is no longer considered vulgur in mainstream scociety. also how is the page title innapropriate. Intercourse is the single most politically correct way of saying it.
The vulgar language was primarily found in the reply that I removed. Do not disrupt this or harass users any further: I want your legitimate question to Sannse to be answered without incident.
I cannot answer because I am not Staff, I am just trying to mediate this. Sannse will deliver the ultimate response (it's night, so tomorrow perhaps).
which response. also i did not ask anyone else to comment. anything objectionable is as a result of his uninvited input. Also. i just read the terms of use and at no point does the content of the page in question breach those terms.
Perhaps he overstepped his bounds, but your response as a whole was entirely inappropriate. Staff will respond soon enough, now set this minor issue aside: it's closed.
Part of my job is to look at pages that might be outside of our Terms of Use. This includes descriptions of sexual acts. We had a complaint about that page, and when I looked I agreed it went (just) over the line. My choices were: edit the page; remove the page; close the wiki; or add a content warning to the wiki (and probably do one of the first three anway). Deleting the page seemed best
You are welcome to replace it, but please keep it PG13-ish
BTW, Elecbullet is an admin here, asking people to stick to Central's social rules is part of what he needs to do. He watches the whole wiki, not just my talk page (although there are a few people who watch my wall and do a great job of answering faster than I can, where it's not a staff-only issue)
First of all who complained. no one EVER goes on there.
Secondly , can you reinstate the page and highlight the parts you want changed (or put them in italics or something), and then i'll go about changing it. We can't reinstate it ourselves because i am not an admin and all the admins have forgotten their passwords on the wiki and their passwords to their Gmail accounts. So their no help.
Finally, i read the terms of use and i couldn't find anything that suggested i had broken them (Althogh it was only a skim read). can you post the exact passage which states where i have gone wrong.
Also, i may have made some remarks on DeviantSerpants message wall that crossed the line abit. If it hasn't been deleted yet could you possibly see about removing it?
I can't reinstate the page, because it's outside the ToU and I won't be responsible for it being visible again. I would suggest you get your admins to recover their mail and Wikia passwords, and then work on it off-line. I see that one of the admins logged in a few days ago, so hopefully can recover their passwords.
The ToU says that you should not post content that is "obscene, pornographic, abusive, offensive [or] profane"
It looks like your post on DeviantSerpent's wall has already been removed
Ok, pornography is the only term i may have broken.
Defention of pornography: printed or visual material containing the explicit description or display of sexual organs or activity, intended to stimulate erotic rather than aesthetic or emotional feelings.
The key phrase here is "intended to stimulate erotic rather than aesthetic or emotional feelings". it was not intended in this way, something which can easily be gleened from the context. It is intended as a satirical/educational article.
LightningD has contacted the Wikia Support, but they have failed to meet his requests, and banned his second account, despite his explainations.
I am requesting that he please be unbanned as soon as possible. He is a valuable member of our staff, and we would like to have him back as soon as possible. I understand that there may be a limit to what you can do, but as you have helped my wiki in the past, I hoped that you might be able to do something now.
Hi, I've said several times now, that he needs to contact us with a lot more information. That includes links to edits he didn't make, links to edits he did make (go to history, and send the link to the actual diff).
I would also like to know what other usernames he has used, and whether he has ever given access to his account to anyone else (and if so, who?). Also, what email addresses he has used to create accounts.
It would also be useful to know his location, ISP, and whether he has ever edited from another location (or on another computer) from his usual. He should also include any other information that might be useful.
He can put my name on the contact form, to ask whoever gets it to check with me for more background.
Hello! It's me (User:Kaitlyn Dunlap). And this past weekend, I messaged you if you or someone else could disable my old account because of the "Facebook isn't working for Wikia and can't log in" thing and I know it takes a few days but it's almost been a week since this began and I really wanna be with my friends again as they miss me too. I understand if something happened or that you guys didn't get my first message. If you could respond, it would be great :)
Hi, I'm not seeing any support requests from you. Did you use Special:Contact? Or was the message somewhere else?
You don't need your old account disabled to create another account by the way. You can just abandon it, and create a new one. There are times that second (or multiple) accounts are a problem, but this is a fair reason to create one.
Or we can try to recover the account for you. If you email us using the email account asociated with your Wikia account, we might be able to resent the password and get you back in. The email address to write to is community@wikia.com
I tried to use Special:Contact but when I did, it said I needed an account :/ But thank you SO much for responding and that I can make a new account without being in trouble. I was afraid of socking but now that this is a fair reason, I am so happy! Thank you so much! This just made my day overall!
You could of still convinced us Wikia is the better place but any hope of that is done. You talk to us about a rule book yet it seems not to exist. I was considering using Wikia for other projects but not anymore. The global block would of been understandable if you gave a warning but you didn't.
I'm talking to everyone on my talk page on Brickipedia, I'd rather not split the conversation any more than necessary. I'm also talking to TeoMeiko personally, off-Wikia.
Your user page has been flamed on the witcher wiki by an unknown user. I'm sorry I've only just noticed it recently but I think you should still be informed regardless of the fact that this news is a bit late just in case it could happen elsewhere as well. Fortunately the rest of the wiki wasn't touched - it was just your userpage.
