Skills Forum
Hey, I have been looking into the "Magical abilities and skills" sections of many of our articles, and I have found some serious problems with users going overboard, so I started a forum to see if we could standardize the rules and come up with some criteria to determine whether a character is an "Expert Duellist" or just a "Skilled Duellist." It can be found here. --JKoch (Owl Me! ) 19:44, January 7, 2011 (UTC)

Comments, multiple accts
Wikia have been contacted regarding the matter since Kacie is not answering my emails. As for the multiple accounts ... well, I blocked Awesomeman222 for three months anyway due to his edits, so if they're the same account, I would block Webgenius for sock puppetry. - Cavalier One ( Wizarding Wireless Network ) 14:07, January 11, 2011 (UTC)

wiki look
Hey, which look do you use? (monobook or new)? I had been using monobook, and I just switched it to the new look for a minute so I could see if it was back to normal Cause Raindrops said that the new look was messed up yesterday, and now it won't let me change back to monobook, keeps coming up with a script error..... --BachLynn (Accio! ) 13:49, January 12, 2011 (UTC)

They were having technical issues yesterday too. It seems alright now, the only thing I hate about the new wiki look is the way the info boxes look, drives me nuts, I tend to jump back and forth depending on what I'm doing. I wish they would come out with something that combines the two looks, best of both worlds sorta thing, ya know......oh well. --BachLynn (Accio! ) 17:48, January 12, 2011 (UTC)

Robert Pattinson
Hello. I edited Robert Pattinson's page this morning and when I got back on to his page to show my friend how I beefed it up, everything I put on his page was gone. And it show YOU were the very last person to edit it. So, I'm messaging to ask you, why did you delete what I put on Rob's page? As you can tell from my user name, I am I massave Twi-Hard. So I know every little thing about Robert Pattinson. I put a lot of great info on his page on this wikia AND Twilight Wikia. I know what I am talking about. I doubt you know as much about him as I do. So, again, why did you delete it?


 * So, if I give credit to the Wikipedia, you would leave it on Rob's page? Like if at the end of his page, I put the link from Wikipedia it would be ok?

Thanks
Thanks! :-) I think the user was mad at me for reverting one of his edits. --BachLynn (Accio! ) 01:31, January 13, 2011 (UTC)

I know, these problem's are driving me nuts, I can't count how many times in the last two days I've gone to save an edit and it comes back with an error message, and for me it's been ping ponging back and forth between the two wikia looks all by itself, and earlier all of a sudden my signature had been blanked out. On the bright side I'm like 30 edits away from hitting the 10,000 edit mark (woohoo)! lol! --BachLynn (Accio! ) 01:43, January 13, 2011 (UTC)

I'd be cool with it being left up, I can't imagine any time that an unreg'd user would need to edit my user page. Thanks! :-) Hey, do you subscribe to get email's not's on any of the pages? I noticed the last few days I haven't been getting emails on any of the pages i follow. --BachLynn (Accio! ) 14:47, January 13, 2011 (UTC)

Slytherin Quidditch Team
Dear Admins,

I don't know who is doing what and who is still active here so I am sending this to all of you. There are a few users, mainly BachLynn23 and Rodolphus that keep changing pages here with untrue facts. I have amended the Slytherin Quidditch Team page with the info that there are no female players, as Rowling states so a few times in her books and in several interviews, on the team. I also took out the spoof names in the list on the right hand side.

Two minutes later that Rodolphus changed it, I corrected it, the user changed it. It is not right that fans and those seeking correct information get mislead on here with names that were created in a fanfiction or the users own mind and may think it happened making a fool of themselves with other fans during discussions.

I have messaged the user and asked to please stop but they did not react and just amended it again. Even putting on some of the pages "Spoof only" but this has now been taken out by BachLynn23.

Maybe you can make sure the page is correct and then have it so that no one can edit it anymore, or do something about this? I am a Harry Potter expert and know every fact that is given us from the books and the great athors interviews therefore I don't really think it is nice to have false information and made up people on here.

I hope you can take care of this in one way or another as I won't continue editing as I am not in kindergarten or pre-school and most certainly those users appear to be as they re-edit true information with false and misleading information.

Okay. I sort of get it now. Sorry I was snappy in my first message and sorry I was a bother. It's not the same rules on this wikia as on Twilight Wikia.

User page problem
Hi, Nick! Perhaps you can help me. I didn't get an answer from Seth Cooper until now. What's wrong with Wiki? When I wanted to look at my "followed pages" with 45 articles in my user page with the "more"-button, there are only 15 to be seen. What has happened? I should say: I use MonoWiki. Harry granger 18:08, January 17, 2011 (UTC) Thanks for your answer. Now I know it is not a mistake that I did make. I hope they can solve their problems soon. I don't like the new look. I find him much more uncomfortable. But I "fear" they will not put it back. So I can only say: Good luck with new "NEW AND BETTER"! Harry granger 13:07, January 22, 2011 (UTC)

How do you do that?
Okay I was looking at other people's profiles and how do you get that little infobox thing and the This wizard is.... badge or whatever it is? Emo Russian Awesomeness 23:23, January 17, 2011 (UTC)

Jokes Wiki
Well, on Jokes Wiki, I am trying to make a better community portal, so I copied all the codes and stuff from this one. Now, I entered the "Create article" template on the wiki's portal, but it came up as red. Naturally, I clicked it, hoping to create the page. Next, I came back to here, skimming through the templates, but I couldn't find "Create article", in order to copy the codes. Help?

viper is beast
hello nick. I am lord viper, you will be seeing me very soon..... watch the news

Can I have a moment of your time,
I couldn't help but notice that the Tamplets on each section were designed in a very unique way. I also noticed similar styles on other wikipedia (Such as the StarWars Wiki.) uhm, http://harrypotter.wikia.com/wiki/Template:Dark_wizard_infobox. By any chance do you know if this is unique only to certain wiki? Or is there a way to configure the biography the same on other wikis as well? Because when I tried to use it, other than it appearing as does on the other wikis the bottom half is configured as a 'Square' shape. Do you get what I am trying to say? Like so:

User Problems
The User Chris Su is continuing to create useless articles despite warnings to stop. Disciplinary measures are likely needed at this point. -Adv193 00:31, February 14, 2011 (UTC)


 * The User Asshole is not really a user but a page created by an IP that I checked through the page's history. -Adv193 06:13, February 14, 2011 (UTC)

House Points Game
Nick,

Since you're an admin, I would assume you'd know who decides when the House Points Game begins? I asked Hcoknhoj the same question but he didn't anwser.

Why
Why did you have to lock the page of rodolphus lestrange. i was trying to add a picture of him and ron and someone keeps getting rid of it

Your Username
Hi, I'm new to this wikia, but a BIG Harry Potter fan. My name comes from the Disney Online Game:Pirates of the Caribbean Online. I noticed your username is from books I've read called the Warrior Heir, the Wizard Heir, and the Dragon Heir. There is a man named Nicodemus Snowbeard in there. Is that where you get your username?

semi-protected pages
quoting The Knights Who Say Ni:

"It looks like you made your account a little over an hour ago. So, Welcome to the Harry Potter Wiki! According to information higher on this page, you have to be an Autoconfirmed member (which automatically happens four days after you create your account), and you also have to have made 20 constructive edits before you can edit a semi-protected page. If you want to edit a fully protected page (something that has been locked so that only admins can edit it), you are welcome to bring it up in the talk page, adding a detailed description of what you want changed. An admin is likely to see it and make the change for you. Hope this helps"

you have to do more than just create an account huh
