Ads
Thank you for pointing out the problem with the ads at Community portal. I've blocked medical-central.org and medicalhelpers.com which were two sites I noticed here that were obviously not appropriate for this wiki. Please let me know if there are others and I can prevent ads for them appearing on Wikicities. If it is more a general issue rather than particular URLs causing problems, I'd suggest writing to Google Adsense about it since they control the ads, and are perhaps not aware of the inappropriateness of some of them.

Hi
Thanks for the welcome, Evan! See you around, and if you're looking for help with anything in particular (and if I happen to know anything about it), just ask. Take care! -- TomakaLinus 03:13, 21 May 2007 (UTC) Hi i'm katie--Firaga44 01:00, 1 June 2009 (UTC)

Great minds think alike!
Hi, Evan!

The former Wikipedia "Lucky 6.9" writing here at work. How've you been? I was walking around Disneyland this weekend and got to thinking how much fun a Disney theme park wiki would be...and here you go and beat me to the idea. :) My original idea was to go into the kind of detail that Wikipedia wouldn't allow, namely articles on individual restaurants, shops, unique merchandise and such. Categorizing them would be a cinch and I've done a bunch of expansion on Disneyland-related articles at Wikipedia which could easily be moved here. Feel free to respond here on your talk page. I'll likely sign up here under the user name of "PM Drive 1061" since I'm tired of the "Lucky" handle. I'm still using that name over at the radio control wiki where I'm a bureaucrat. The artist formerly known as Lucky 6.9 via 74.62.5.240 02:16, 9 May 2006 (UTC)

Yup, I took the plunge...
...and I'm now editing here as well. Now, if I can only figure out how to lose the "Lucky 6.9" handle at the radio control wiki, all will be well.

If you need an admin, I'm your guy. What's the procedure around here? - DismayingObservation 23:05, 10 July 2006 (UTC)

Return?
I noticed that strange and freaky things were happening to MouseStreetUSA. Is it coming back? That would be totally awesome. - Route 55
 * Maybe. --Evan 04:50, 6 March 2007 (UTC)

DeWikify
That was the best I could come up with. Do you have any suggestions? - Route 55

Official Friends of The Disney Wiki
Hello, you may remember me from when there was a possible name change to Mickeypedia. Well, I am an administrator over at a wiki for Star Wars Games, called SWGames, and we are looking for Official Friends. I don't know if you are looking for any, but it would be an honor to be friends with a wiki like this. I myself think it is a great wiki, and very informative. We haven't been able to get many users to help us out, so I strongly believe that we will get some, if we become friends with Disney Wiki. If you are interested, you can contact me on my talk page. Thank you very much! supergeeky1 Disneyland 19:50, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Well I'm glad you like the idea! Again, I think the Disney Wiki is great, and if you would like to talk more about this, I encourage you to join our IRC channel. You can use whatever provider you would like, but if you are new to the IRC, I suggest you use http://www.ircatwork.com. All you have to do, is type the username you wish to use, type irc.freenode.net in the server area, then type #swgames in the channel name. From there, we can start the negotion process. But if you would like to stay simple, I suppose we contact each other through our talk pages. Thank you very much for accepting! supergeeky1 [[Image:Dduck2.gif|20px]] Disneyland 04:38, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Unless you feel there is any more need to talk about this, I am going to go ahead and add Disney to the friends list. Thank you very much for everything! supergeeky1 [[Image:Dduck2.gif|20px]] Disneyland 09:06, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
 * No offense, but has there been a problem with the SWGames friends thing? If you would like, I could create the template. Thanks, and please don't take this message the wrong way! I was just wondering. supergeeky1 [[Image:Dduck2.gif|20px]] Disneyland 06:17, 1 April 2007 (UTC)
 * I created a test template for you. You can modify it anyway you would like. It is located here at Template:Mainpage-friends. Thanks! supergeeky1 [[Image:Dduck2.gif|20px]] Disneyland 06:21, 1 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Oh, I believe I should also tell you that when you follow the link, it is SWGames. We came up with an April Fools Day Joke where we transformed SWGames into Barbiepedia. Thanks! supergeeky1 [[Image:Dduck2.gif|20px]] Disneyland 06:23, 1 April 2007 (UTC)
 * I'm gonna go ahead and add it to the main page. You can rearrange to your liking. supergeeky1 [[Image:Dduck2.gif|20px]] Disneyland 00:03, 5 April 2007 (UTC)

name change proposal
Hi. I was just thinking that you should change the title of this Wiki to something like: "Mickeypedia", keeping with the theme of rhyming with or sounding like "Wikipedia" (e.g.- "Wookieepedia" for Star Wars). Just an idea- don't feel obligated or anything. Kanogul(talk) 20:12, 3 May 2007 (UTC)

Deleting animated shorts pages
Hi Evan -- I think it's pretty harsh deleting the animated shorts stubs that User:Pantalones created. Yes, they were stubs, but they were real content, and Peter worked hard to create all of those. There aren't very many active contributors here, and it's a shame to discourage somebody who's obviously interested in contributing information. -- Danny (talk ) 01:49, 29 May 2007 (UTC)


 * Danny: There was no content on the pages that Evan deleted. The new ones do have content on them. The rest were just blank. - Route 55


 * Well, they did have content, in the sense that they had category tags. Basically, Peter was creating a lot of stub pages for all of the animated shorts, so that it would be easy for him (and other people) to expand those into full articles. -- Danny (talk ) 22:00, 29 May 2007 (UTC)


 * Ah. Well, then, I don't know why Evan deleted them then. - Route 55


 * Yeah, it's a shame. You can see Peter's response to the situation on my talk page. -- Danny (talk ) 11:51, 30 May 2007 (UTC)


 * I saw that after my first post here. As for Evan, he is infrequently on/off so he may be back and do a ton of changes for a day and then disappear. - Route 55


 * Guys, I deleted them because, even though they had category tags, they had no content. There were probably 200 articles, and that is a LOT of articles to create just to work on in the future. I didn't do it to be mean, but it is my opinion need blank articles on the Wiki. The point is to provide information. Blank articles provide no information. I did not delete any articles that he had already added content to. To justify, any blank article on Wikipedia would get deleted, would it not? I'm sorry if you find my actions harsh, and next time, I'll try to get a public opinion on the DisneyWiki forum, okay? --Evan 01:04, 31 May 2007 (UTC)


 * Hey Evan - sorry I didn't respond personally to you earlier, but I was frustrated and just needed some time away. Anyway, I was mostly disappointed that I didn't get a chance to explain myself before the pages were deleted. See, most of my experience has been on Muppet Wiki, where I've been an administrator since it started. And while it is true that we probably would discourage articles with nothing but Category tags at this point, it was something we definitely encouraged at the beginning, as we found that people are more likely to add to a page that already exists than to create a new one on their own. Whereas Muppet Wiki is now very thorough in terms of the basic pages, Disney Wiki isn't yet - it's very light, in fact, in terms of animation - and the pages with category tags do have information. They might not say "Birds in Spring is a Silly Symphony" but the tag carries the same information. Also, the Category page then becomes a list of all the Silly Symphony shorts, for example, which I think is very useful to have. Anyway, it's your Wiki, and I'll definitely keep from adding "blank" articles from now on - but in retrospect, I would really like to have been able to have my piece before they were deleted rather than after. -- Peter (talk ) 17:51, 1 June 2007 (UTC)


 * Understood, and No need to apologize again, and thanks for understanding. I'm definitely looking forward to contributing more to the Disney Wiki. -- Peter (talk ) 15:49, 7 June 2007 (UTC)

Entertainment footer
Hi Evan -- I'm working on a project for Wikia to help link the Entertainment wikis together, and encourage people to see this as one big site, rather than a lot of little wikis. I'd like to post this footer at the bottom of the main page.

The gaming wikis have started a similar project, and they've seen a lot more cross-traffic. Would it be okay to post this at the bottom of the main page here? You could also feel free to edit it, to fit in better with this community. -- Danny (talk ) 00:10, 16 September 2007 (UTC)


 * Alright, I added it to the main page. Thank you. --Evan 02:42, 18 September 2007 (UTC)


 * Cool, thanks! I made a different version for you, so the spacing fits better on your page. -- Danny (talk ) 12:29, 18 September 2007 (UTC)

Spanish
Hi!, hay the wiki in spanish. Seria best poner el enalce in main page.--190.48.54.235 13:58, 30 October 2007 (UTC)

Hey, Evan, About the Disney-MGM Studios...
...You think (pretty please?) it can be now changed to "Disney's Hollywood Studios" as I fixed the stubs from "Disney MGM" to "Disney's Hollywood" and all links therein can be fixed? Mouseinphilly 2:31 PM US EST Feb 24 2008

Melanie Rachel Ravenswood 05:53, 6 March 2008 (UTC)Umm Evan do you think the Phantom Manor page that I created is good? I am sorry if it is badly made.

Nominee for Poster of the Week
To commemorate the 50th Anniversary of the Alice in Wonderland attraction at Disneyland in May. Good idea? Mouseinphilly 10:06 AM US EDT Mar 21 2008.

Please Delete "High School Musical 4"
It reads more like a news story or a gossip column. Thanks in advance! Mouseinphilly4:32 AM US EDT May 1 2008

Category:Pages to be deleted
Can you please check in on this page to see what articles have been nominated for deletion. Many of these have been sitting here a while now. :) Thanks. -- Manticore   (talk)  12:43, 12 May 2008 (UTC)

Helping You All Out
hey my name is Devin i have been a huge disney fan for a long time, i would love to help make this site grow so much bigger the only thing that is holding me back is that. i have never learned or got how to edit a wiki page in my life. if there is a way that i could email you changes and tell you what page they belong to that would be great. if you have any questions or comments please feel free to email me at devinmulligan@gmail.com -- Devin Mulligan

Hi, again
Hi Evan! It's been a while since I've been active here and I see that you're the only active admin anymore. I just wanted to let you know that Wikia will be turning on an ad unit for the front page of the wiki which will make the format look funny unless I add some code to keep the columns separate. So if you see some tags you're not familiar with, that's why.

I'm also intersted in hearing about how things are going here. I started some cartoon shorts filmographies a while back here, but I haven't been around enough to see how the community has grown. If you've got anything you need help with from an administrative viewpoint, please let me know. Is vandalism still a problem? I can help you figure out how to deal with stuff like that. Please leave me a message on my talk page if there's anything I can do. —Scott ( talk ) 18:47, 30 July 2008 (UTC)

Hi there!
Hi, Evanwohrman, I’m a Disney fan too (though I’m mostly a fan of their animated movies and shorts). I was just wondering, do you want to be my partner on the wiki? Maybe, if we work together on some of the articles, we can make this wiki as good as the Star Wars wiki. What do you say?-Endorchicken

Excuse me!
Hello, I am User:The Forgotten Beast! I leave this message because some anonymous user keeps inserting false information into the Air Conditioner page and I was hoping you could do something about him!

Thank you very much for reading this message!

anonymous editors
Hi Evan! I noticed this wiki appears to have a lot of vandalism by anonymous editors. You might like to know that you have the option to require users to log in to edit the wiki. We've been doing it that way on Muppet Wiki for some time now with stonrg results. Vandals don't usually bother to log in just to create nonsense, so it makes that process for them a little harder. The vandals who do log in are easier to track and block as their usernames are much easier to identify. Let me know if you want to enable this feature, and I can take care of that for you. And please feel free to let me know if there's anything else you need for this wiki. Thanks! —Scott ( talk ) 15:59, 16 March 2009 (UTC)

Thanks
Hi, Thanks for the welcome post on my talk page. Won't register here for now as only came for the Alice info. But maybe in the future... Jim --86.133.162.121 12:16, 23 March 2009 (UTC)

He's at it again!
That anonymous user from before is inserting false info into the Air Conditioner article again! Can you please block him?! -The Forgotten Beast 05:29, 24 March 2009 (UTC)

Hey!
Hey mate :) Tanks for welcoming me. I'm a huge fan of Disney films and I look forward to became a leading member in this wiki, srsly! - Jimmy, 20:20 UTC time, 25 March 2009

Hey, thank you. But I know those wikis. I'm at the german and english wikipedia and a few wikias. --Shego123 18:20, 20 April 2009 (UTC)

Real Emergency
I got an emergency. The user named User:DismayingObservation is deleting information on Marsupilami! What should I do? Marsupilamifan 03:47, September 30, 2009 (UTC) --User:Marsupilamifan

May cause difficulty
The anonymous user, User:99.150.209.164, has been creating pages on subjects unrelated to Disney. After he got the idea and started placing delete tabs on each page, he started making pages for no other reason than to put the tab on them. I'm pretty sure this counts as spam. --Henry Medals - Broken Mirror 03:36, February 19, 2010 (UTC)

Hey1234
Could you please talk some sense into Hey1234? I've been making edits and correcting mistakes on the pages for characters like Mickey Mouse, Tinker Bell, and the Dalmatian Puppies, but he keeps undoing my edits despite the fact that the edits I'm making are completely true! Please make him stop. --JeremyCreek 04:05, March 27, 2010 (UTC)
