Awesome
Hey! Kate.moon said it be a good idea to join the Animanga hub so I can get more editors. I think it's a good idea too! here is a link to my Wiki http://awesomeanimeandmanga.wikia.com/wiki/Awesome_Anime_and_Manga_Wiki.  Lily the Girl  who Loves Anime &amp; Manga  23:54, June 21, 2011 (UTC)

did you look at my message?  Lily the Girl  who Loves Anime &amp; Manga  01:00, July 4, 2011 (UTC)

oh sorry... well thanks! :D  Lily the Girl  who Loves Anime &amp; Manga  01:14, July 4, 2011 (UTC)

Read More section
Hey, question, how come the "Read More" section of every article is… You know, I can't quite explain it, but if you look at it, you know what I'm talking about. Is there a reason for that?  *Bereisgreat  ( shout! ) 19:28, August 9, 2011 (UTC)

Nah, I didn't mean that. I know about the pictures and everything, so I am on an adventurous quest to go through all the articles and add pictures to every series, so you shouldn't delete that, the pictures will be there soon. Nah, I was talking about that with all the other wiki's, there is enough space for three read more's next to each other, while here, one is below the others. Can you see it too, or is it just me?  *Bereisgreat  ( shout! ) 20:05, August 9, 2011 (UTC)

Yeah, we can manage without it. Besides, it's not like it were related series showing or something, it were just random articles, so it's kinda useless. Fair enough.  *Bereisgreat  ( shout! ) 21:14, August 9, 2011 (UTC)

Re:Infoboxes
Aha, another good idea. Yeah, I really like, but that also means: more work for me! Yay :D. I don't mind, I don't mind. After all, I want this wiki to be as good as possible, so I'll work on it as much as I can.  *Bereisgreat  ( shout! ) 21:47, August 10, 2011 (UTC)

Adoption
I can consider it in the future but at the moment I'm snagged on the eligibility thing. "You have not founded, adopted, or been given admin access on another wiki in the last 60 days" I found wikis on cartoon series a lot, recently I did one on Sonic Soldier Borgman, the Smoggies, Akazukin Chacha and Mahoujin Guruguru, so would have to wait a couple months. Also "you have not been blocked on another Wikia project" is not true because I just got blocked on the Thundercats wiki for raging that they deleted the thunderkittens page, lol. I don't suppose you know any KnJ fan who might want to take over the role, even if temporarily to do the things you need? They could have 100% community support, since that still seems to be just me, meh. Ty 08:46, August 15, 2011 (UTC)
 * Sounds good, I really like the short URL though, lol. There's got to be some other fans, soon as they come I'm sure one could adopt it. Tyc 04:13, August 17, 2011 (UTC)

Hey!
Amyroselove asked me to be a part of Anime Manga Hub. I was wondering if you could add the following wikis: Genis Sage, Larkeicus -User:Burnning Blaze

Image on Special:FormEdit
Do you think you could add an image fill-in box (or something) in the Special:FormEdit/Series? 'Cause now I have to save the page and edit it again to insert the image. It'd be a lot more helpful to do it in one turn. 21:00, September 21, 2011 (UTC)

Ah, yes! This is what I've been waiting for! It's great! Awesome! And really helpful! I really, really like it. 18:03, September 22, 2011 (UTC)

Anime list stats
Anime list"Forum:List_of_Anime_and_Manga_Wikia" how does the keep update? I'm editing about four Wikia. Of them two are not in the list. Is there a place I need to send info to? Do I talk to you? I've notices you are the biggest editor of the list. I would guest a bot keeps stats up to date in the list. It took me awhile to find it. When I started the editing a wikia page when I was doing searches for evrything. In the beginning I had to do a lot of searches to find the help for what I wanted to do. Things were kind a all over the wikia. I also looking at other wikia. Rocketmanwikia 04:30, September 22, 2011 (UTC


 * There's no need to use bots; just edit the article and add the wikis that you're currently handling, as long as it is related to anime and/or manga. heraldofmeridian♣ 05:29, September 22, 2011 (UTC)

Delete this page please
Have you seen this page? xxxx. I have no idea what it is about, but it needs to go. Since I'm not an admin I can't delete pages, so can you do that please? 17:45, September 26, 2011 (UTC)
 * got it.--Sxerks 18:21, September 26, 2011 (UTC)

Beelzebub Wikia Blog?
Hey, can you please make a blog page in Beelzebub wikia. I have been following that manga for a few months and I think its really good. It would be fun if more people joined the site and shared their ideas and predictions and stuff. --Kuriani 13:34, October 28, 2011 (UTC)
 * The Beelzebub wikia does look pretty promising. I'm trying to see if more images could be featured there. +y@talk 05:29, January 15, 2012 (UTC)

Animepedia Bot
Hello Sxerks! I'm Ryoga04 and am new to Wikia. I created [htto://maisonikkoku.wikia.com Maison Ikkoku Wiki] (it's not completed yet) and I would like to know how I can get the 'special' templates like, etc. in my wiki? How can I add them to the Bot's list? Thanks in advance, Ryoga (talk ) 16:11, December 8, 2011 (UTC)
 * Thanks Sxerks! I will ask Dantman. I could export the 'TagSynced' templates from Anime.Wiki and import them on the wiki, but then I don't know if it would work properly. Ryoga (talk ) 04:00, December 9, 2011 (UTC)

Wiki-navigation
Hey, the MediaWiki:Wiki-navigation has been broken for a while now. The first dropdown menu isn't working at all and some of the Community links are empty. We also really don't use chat. Maybe you could edit the navigation so something more... navigationy? I'd suggest making another category with "Fall 2011 anime" and "Winter 2011 anime", so that we have a clear lay-out and that those categories can also be put in the navigation, I think that be a big plus for the wiki! Of course, it's just a suggestion, but I think that the top navigation should be better. 18:51, December 9, 2011 (UTC)

It's good, I like it :) 23:48, December 9, 2011 (UTC)

Claymore issue
Hey Sxerks, I wanna butt in on this Claymore problem. It's pretty obvious you should delete the "Claymore New Wiki" article, but I think the real problem is what wiki we'll advertise on the "Claymore" article. The new wiki has more pages, but a lot of those pages are really weird, scenes and stuff... Also, the old and more trusted wiki has been around way longer, although it isn't as flashy as the new one. You decide... 04:09, December 30, 2011 (UTC)

Sxerks? You'll have to decide something or this will drag on forever. 17:54, January 2, 2012 (UTC)

Dude, interaction! Now you're just like antisocial, taking care of things yourself and not letting anyone know about it. If I take the trouble of contacting you and showing you the problem, the least you could do is post on my talk page something like "Okay, got it, you're right. I'll just list the new wiki under external links and delete the page like you suggested." Not to be annoying or something, but I had to say something. 20:34, January 2, 2012 (UTC)

Block
Hey, can you please block this anonymous user? He's been vandalizing the wiki by inserting "Lesbians" tags on series articles. He even made an article about Lesbians. 23:06, February 3, 2012 (UTC)
 * 'Kay thanks. 21:30, February 7, 2012 (UTC)

The Law of Ueki Wiki
Hello Sxerks. I adopted The Law of Ueki wiki after seeing it was abandoned. I've already started creating and expanding pages there. However, there are many other wikis for The Law of Ueki: kosukeueki.wikia.com (7 pages), lawofueki.wikia.com (1 page), ueki.wikia.com (no pages), thelawofueki.wikia.com (1 page), and uekinohosoku.wikia.com (no pages). Some of them contain inappropriate images, btw. Is there a way to merge these wikis or to direct the visitors to the active wiki? 良牙 (talk ) 13:02, February 4, 2012 (UTC)
 * Thanks for that Sxerks. Should I send a single request listing all of the above wikis or separate requests for each wiki? 良牙 (talk ) 04:27, February 5, 2012 (UTC)

Spotlight question
Hey Sxerks, a little question concerning the spotlights. Do you have to be an admin of the wiki to put it up for spotlights or can you list whatever wiki you want? 15:35, February 8, 2012 (UTC)


 * It can be whoever(i've had to randomly pick some in the past), though usually to get the wordmark,favicon,footer,and nav requirements you would have to have an admin involved.--Sxerks 15:58, February 8, 2012 (UTC)

So if those requirments are already fulfilled, I can list those wiki's? 18:06, February 8, 2012 (UTC)
 * yep--Sxerks 21:26, February 8, 2012 (UTC)

Re:wikipedia links
Sxerks, I apologize; I was unaware. -- 04:02, February 15, 2012 (UTC)

Vandalism (again)
Hey Sxerks, the same guy who vandalized the Wiki two weeks ago (remember the lesbians) came back today. Can you block him again please? 12:17, February 18, 2012 (UTC)

Need SERIOUS help
I know I msged on School Days but in case you hang out here more often: Brandon has made it clear he wants to delete the ENTIRE school-days wiki simply because the visual novel its based on has sex scenes with an underage character. This happened because I was trying to get it adopted to delete sex pictures.

We know this is stupid because there are lots of great anime made from visual novels like this. Fate/stay's 15yo Emiya shiro for example with Saber, or Kanon. If School Days gets deleted, stuff like this would probably next. I'm hoping you might be able to help spread awareness of this issue on the wikia anime community? +y@talk 02:44, February 19, 2012 (UTC)
 * I know what you mean, so much for being open and giving the benefit of the doubt to staff to be reasonable. I'd like contact some other staff about this, am trying #animanga and #wikia on FreeNode but not much luck. His argument's totally weak. I've already brought up that Buffy Summers has illegal sex when she's 17 (AoC is 18 in California where show is set) yet we're not deleting Buffy.wikia. I don't even see anything in the Terms of Use that says he's okay to do this. I want to know who is "we" when he says that. +y@talk 03:16, February 19, 2012 (UTC)

No editors
Hi Sxerks. I tried everything to attract more editors to the Law of Ueki wiki: added the wiki's name to Admin Central:Main Page/Wikis that need editors, Forum:List of Anime and Manga Wikia and even asked for a makeover at the Content team request board. Still no editors :( What can I do to attract more editors? Would an animanga spotlight help? What are the requirements? 良牙 (talk ) 04:39, March 1, 2012 (UTC)
 * Thanks Sxerks. I'm applying for a spotlight. If I'm lucky enough, it might attract some editors. I will also post on some forums. I just hope sincerely that the wiki gets some new editors. 良牙 (talk ) 06:34, March 1, 2012 (UTC)

Suddenly. Rights.
Hey since when do I have chat moderator and rollback rights? Did you do that or Dantman? 20:34, March 25, 2012 (UTC)
 * I asked him to add me as a Bureaucrat, and then changed yours, and also my bot(which I had go through every page and add headers) back on the 13th.--Sxerks 20:49, March 25, 2012 (UTC)

Okay, that's great! Thanks Sxerks. 17:14, March 26, 2012 (UTC)

xxxholic wiki
Could you please take a look at the xxxholic wikia's main page? It would be really great if you could fix the error at the end of the...page. Thanks. Divinecross 12:35, April 2, 2012 (UTC)


 * I saw it. Thank you very much 13:27, April 4, 2012 (UTC)

A few questions.
Well, I have two things I would like to talk about.

I am an Admin of the Chrome Shelled Regios wiki which is not really that active at the moment. I only have one other admin who is helping me fix up the wiki while I'm trying to go to the more techincal side of it. How would I increase activity?

Also I noticed that you have a bot here. I'm looking around for a general clean up bot. Do you know if there are any freeware bots that I can use available anywhere because I have absolutely no skill to make one myself. Was269 17:14, April 7, 2012 (UTC)

Infoboxes
Hi, so, I saw that this wiki is somehow connected to the infoboxes bot that changes the default infoboxes, like you did in Narutopedia, Inuyasha and Magico. I'm making Magico Fanon Wiki and I needed to know how to use those infoboxes... Please, answer as quickly as possible. Davidchola2 17:39, April 23, 2012 (UTC)Davidchola2

Admin
Wait, so I'm an admin now? Thanks a lot and all, but why wasn't I notified of this? Seems pretty important to me. But still, thanks for the trust :D 20:49, May 3, 2012 (UTC)
 * usually an email is sent when someone changes your status on a wiki. and your welcome--Sxerks 23:40, May 3, 2012 (UTC)

Blogs
Hey Sxerks, I noticed something's wrong with the blogs. If you look here, you can see that the heading of the blog (the line, edit and like button) are running over the right column. Also, on my latest blog (are you okay with this by the way?), there is already a comment, but it doesn't show. Can you by any chance fix this? 20:47, May 7, 2012 (UTC)

Yep, blogs fine, and looks like the formatting is fixed.--Sxerks 21:37, May 7, 2012 (UTC)


 * Okay, thanks :) 21:57, May 7, 2012 (UTC)

Sora no Otoshimono
I made it hoping that when the admins see it that they will import my work into that wiki. As there are other contributors, i didn't want to just go on their and change stuff. I did it to this page here and it caused a bit of a problem.

Hm
Are changes like this acceptable to do? Seems a bit sneaky. I noticed you restored the link but initially that edit removed it and pretended the other wiki didn't exist or something... Mysterious Girlfriend X uses the title of the original wiki, seems like an apt enough translation. When I type "Nazo no Kanojo" into Google translate I get "Her Mystery" so I'm not sure. Like Kanojo is 'she' and 'no kanojo' makes 'her'. Though that's just as pronoun, translate also lists girlfriend/sweetheart as alternative translations. +Yc 08:52, May 24, 2012 (UTC)

String of Vandalism
Just letting you know there has been a string of vandalism lately. Claymore will have to be rollbacked. This guys will all have to be blocked. -- Aassdddai  talk  11:06, May 30, 2012 (UTC)

Licensing via bot
Hey Sxerks, long time no see. I'd like to ask you for some help. I've been an idiot on the KnB Wiki. There are already 974 files on my Wiki, but I didn't bother to license them. Seeing how you value that a lot and by encouragement from other users, I decided to finally make them legal images by adding the fair use license to every one of them. But for 974 files, that is way too much work to do manually. Am I right to assume that you added the majority of licenses over here by using a bot? How does that work exactly? Can I do that on my Wiki? What do I have to do?

18:26, June 17, 2012 (UTC)


 * Okay, I already made BereBot and e-mailed a request for flagging. I'll install AWB in a sec and I hope it'll work. I'll keep you updated, thanks for the help, really appreciate it :D.


 * 21:48, June 17, 2012 (UTC)

I'm confused with AWB. Is this where I'm supposed to be?

22:05, June 17, 2012 (UTC)


 * Nevermind, I downloaded, installed, logged in and tried out your guidelines. Now I just have to wait for my bot to be flagged so I can start the actual procedure. Thanks a lot for the help, I'm really happy I'm now able to use bots! :D


 * 22:30, June 17, 2012 (UTC)

Just one more thing. Whenever I click on "Source: Special page" and then on "Source: All files", it doesn't show a list of files, it show a list of all my pages. Any thoughts?

18:21, June 18, 2012 (UTC)


 * Never mind, I changed it to "All page" and namespace "File:", so works. Thanks for the help, it's all fine now.

Re:images
I'm concerned that they may start doing it again anytime, so I want to be prepared. -- FOAM (Talk)  15:56, June 18, 2012 (UTC)

anime wiki
Yes, the project is moving forward but has progressed beyond my department. I wanted to be absolutely sure there would be no conflicts or errors, and that we were taking the best possible course of action, so I passed it on to those who are better versed in this area. Should be the best outcome for all parties.

 * Sxerks, I'm honestly not sure if this was communicated with you, but the intent is for this wiki to assume "anime.wikia.com" as it's primary URL. You can retain the site name and the old URL will forward to anime.wikia.com, but that was the plan in terms of SEO and other technical setup. Is this amenable to you and the other admins? I'm not going to proceed with the merge (and getting your approval here is the last step) until you all give your thumbs up to having that as the primary URL. --daNASCAT 20:39, July 9, 2012 (UTC)


 * Since the Wiki name describes that it's not just anime here, the subdoamin really doesn't matter to me. I'll wait for feedback from the other 2 though.--Sxerks 04:44, July 10, 2012 (UTC)


 * In my opinion, I'd rather have animanga as the primary domain. This Wiki clearly handles more than anime alone, we also have lots of manga- or light novel-only articles. Just because anime is more popular than manga, I don't think we should give in to that and disregard manga and light novel. In response to daNASCAT, I would prefer anime.wikia.com being redirect to animanga.wikia.com instead of the other way around. 16:04, July 10, 2012 (UTC)
 * Okie dokie, understood. We will keep animanga as the primary URL then and redirect anime to the URL. Just wanted to give you guys the option of keeping the better SEO URL as the primary (and if it ever comes up again, we can make 'anime' the primary in just a matter of seconds). We will do the URL redirect of anime here this afternoon. --daNASCAT 16:58, July 10, 2012 (UTC)

anime wiki merge
I knew about the change and was fine with anime -> animanga. Though I wish they would have given me more notice about the actual change. There actually was in fact some stuff on anime that should have been kept around for reference (ie: anime.wikia should have been moved to some place like anime-legacy.wikia instead of just deleted). I can't even read the conversation I had with staff on the topic on my talkpage there anymore since they just made it disappear. ~ Daniel Friesen (DanTMan, Nadir Seen Fire) (Local Talk &#8285; Animanga Talk) 04:32, July 12, 2012 (UTC)
