Archives
I have (finally) created archive pages for all the content that had been on this page. I have broken up the content by year. You can find the archives at:
 * 2008 and 2009
 * 2010
 * 2011

Again !! Blocking User:Mw3_is_shit
This user has to be blocked fast. He has created one page and uploaded three bad images. I have removed the content of the page and censored the images. Please delete everything. In fact, even his user name is incorrect. --Gray Catbird 15:55, January 22, 2012 (UTC)
 * I blocked him and deleted the page and images he created. Thanks! - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 16:11, January 22, 2012 (UTC)

Blocking User:Tachomınt
Hello, this user has been making some vandalism: he removed content from pages and created empty pages. --Gray Catbird 22:51, January 20, 2012 (UTC)


 * IMPORTANT: Puffle339 is too young to legally be a Wikia user (the minimum age is 13), so you need to report him to Wikia Staff so he can be globally blocked until at least his 13th birthday on March 4, 2015. In fact this should have been done a year ago, when the problem became apparent. -- RobertATfm 23:06, July 6, 2012 (UTC)

Hi Dvcnut! I need some help. I have created two new wikis called LMFAO Band Wiki and TheComputerNerdZeroOne Wiki. So can you please make them more popular because LMFAO Wiki has only 3 pages and TheComputerNerdZeroOne Wiki has only 2 pages. So please help me. I am the founder of both of those wikis so I have to take care of them and not let any vandilism. So please tell your friends and help me please!

Sincerely,

FunnyDude1234
 * Hi! Good luck with your new wikis! Unfortunately I am very short on time and can hardly keep up with the Pixar wiki. I am also not a fan of LMFAO and don't know much about them so wouldn't be much help. But don't worry, there are many people out there who are fans, and as they find your wikis they will start contributing. It may take time but don't get discouraged - just keep adding content and I think you'll find others who share your interest and will be interested in helping out. Good luck! --Jeff (talk ) 18:16, January 1, 2012 (UTC)


 * Ok, then. FunnyDude1234

BLOCK USER:Skdb769
Please bock User:Skdb769! He is adding pages to the category: Candidates
 * OK, he has been blocked. Thanks for letting me know and helping clean up his mess. I will put back anything you're unable to fix.
 * Note, in the future it's not required to give the details of a person's edits or objectionable words he is using. If you just let one of us admins know, we can look at history and figure out what he's doing. By repeating his words it's giving him the attention he is looking for. Also, if it's obvious the person is vandalising do NOT write on his talk page - again, this just gives them attention, which is what they are looking for. Just stay calm, leave a message for the admins and do whatever clean-up you can. Thanks! --Jeff (talk ) 03:08, January 14, 2012 (UTC)
 * Jeff, is there a way to completely delete a profile? That user's account shows a lot of vulgarity that would be nice to remove. How do we remove users of this Wiki? Thanks. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 10:15, January 14, 2012 (UTC)
 * I don't know how to completely delete a user. Are you able to delete users on the other wikis you work on? I could ask Scott if it's possible. Maybe it's something we have to submit a request for to the "super-admins"? :) --Jeff (talk ) 15:43, January 14, 2012 (UTC)
 * No, I don't know how to do it anywhere else either. It seems like it is something we should be able to do.... - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 00:22, January 16, 2012 (UTC)
 * Are you thinking we should be able to delete a user and all traces of his/her contributions so we don't see their edit comments, etc? Or something not quite so drastic? --Jeff (talk ) 01:20, January 16, 2012 (UTC)
 * Not necessarily. But we should be able to remove any content from the user profile that is vulgar, contains profanity, etc. But it looks like that user page is gone now...???? Did you do something? Or am I just missing it? I don't see it any longer. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 14:29, January 16, 2012 (UTC)
 * I don't remember him ever having a profile page, and there doesn't seem to be any history for it. I thought all the vulgarity was on his talk page (and User_talk:Crazyhead88), plus in his edit comments. --Jeff (talk ) 16:03, January 16, 2012 (UTC)
 * It was in the "live in", "born in", "occupation" area. If users receive an "infinite" ban, perhaps Wikia automatically removes their profiles from that Wiki? That would make sense, to free up space. Are there any other infinitely banned users you remember, that we could check on? - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 16:08, January 16, 2012 (UTC)
 * It wasn't on the profile page, just in their profile info at the top. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 16:12, January 16, 2012 (UTC)
 * Even though the wikilink to the profile, User:Skdb769, doesn't work any more, just type it in the search, and it will come up still. You will see what I was talking about. But if the wikilink no longer works, people can't really get to it anyway, except for typing it in search I guess. Maybe the wikilink to it breaks when they are banned for infinity? Just type the user in the search and look at the top. Let me know when you see what I'm talking about! Thanks. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 16:17, January 16, 2012 (UTC)
 * OK, weird! When I search for the user name it comes up with no matches at all. I have checked everything in the search dialog and still nothing. BUT, if I go to pixar.wikia.com/User:Skdb769 I am brought to his profile page and see what you are talking about.
 * I have looked at other users I've blocked for infinity and they still have their profile pages. I can leave a message on Scott's talk page and see if he knows if there's a way to clean up that information. Thanks. --Jeff (talk ) 16:36, January 16, 2012 (UTC)
 * OK, I submitted a request to the central wiki staff and they cleaned up his profile. That profile info is shared across all wikis so I think that's why we can't update it. Thanks. --Jeff (talk ) 13:44, January 18, 2012 (UTC)
 * Oh, OK. Makes sense. Thanks! - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 14:28, January 18, 2012 (UTC)

Home Page
What I say we should do is to lock the home page from spam. Latest Spam: DON"T WASTE YOUR ******* TIME... not to ruin your talk page just telling you please don't block me for doing this. ThanksClonetrooper3434 16:33, January 16, 2012 (UTC)CT3434
 * Isn't it SOP for any wiki to lock the home page, for this very reason (that as the most visible part of the wiki, it tends to be a spam/vandalism magnet)? Having said that, when clicking the "Random Wiki" button at the bottom of the page I was shocked as to how many of the ones I landed upon weren't locked. -- RobertATfm 17:01, May 30, 2012 (UTC)
 * We try to not lock any page - the point of a wiki is that anyone can edit it, and anyone can undo anyone else's edits. Trust and self-policing is a much preferred solution than locking pages. Yes, we have had vandalism issues, but they are rare and quickly rectified. And I think our users appreciate that they are trusted and can make contributions to any page in the wiki. From your experience with the other wiki's I'm guessing their admins feel the same way. Thanks! --Jeff (talk ) 23:39, May 30, 2012 (UTC)

Here We Go Again!
Skdb769 made a new account and I saw that he just vandalized the Fred page by putting: This car is a n*****. Please deal with him as we can't tolerate his ridiculousness anymore. Leland turbo 19:40, January 21, 2012 (UTC)
 * Thank you, he has been blocked. --Jeff (talk ) 20:01, January 21, 2012 (UTC)

Bureaucrat
Jeff, can you please grant me Bureaucrat rights? I'd like to grant some rollback rights. Thanks! - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 22:43, January 21, 2012 (UTC)
 * Done. --Jeff (talk ) 05:27, January 22, 2012 (UTC)
 * Thanks! I don't know why they just don't let Admin grant rollback rights too. That's the only difference between Admin rights and Bureaucrat rights, besides being able to grant Admin rights. Kind of strange. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 13:27, January 22, 2012 (UTC)

NOT AGAIN!!!
For the love of god, Skdb769 made yet another account and just vandalised the Cars 2 page, my eyes had to suffer! Leland turbo 00:45, February 11, 2012 (UTC)

RE:Actors category
Sure, sorry about that. -- GrouchMan (Send a note then scram!! P.S. Have a rotten day!!!! ) 20:30, February 16, 2012 (UTC)

THEY KEEP SAYING THAT MATER IS DIM WITTED ON THE MATER WIKIA! CAN U TELL THEM TO STOP?
 * Unfortunately, I am not involved with that wiki. I would recommend you talk to one of the sysops or administrators on that wiki. Sorry I can't be of more help. --Jeff (talk ) 04:19, March 2, 2012 (UTC)
 * I think this person means the Mater article, not Mater Wikia. He has always been shown there as dim-witted, and I think we can agree that he is somewhat dim-witted. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 10:29, March 2, 2012 (UTC)
 * Ha! I must admit I was a bit shocked to hear there was an entire wiki site dedicated to Mater!! OK, so I guess I'm a bit like Mater himself. :) Anyways, yes, I think we can agree he is, shall we say, slow and dim-witted. Maybe some would say naive. But as the article points out, he also is an expert when it comes to car knowledge. --Jeff (talk ) 13:31, March 2, 2012 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I think it is fine the way it is. By the way, are the "Edit" links above each section of the talk pages working for you? Not for me. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 14:46, March 2, 2012 (UTC)
 * No they don't. I can get them to work if I right-click and open the link in a new tab/window. Weird. I thought it might be a Chrome issue, but just tried with Firefox and same result. Well the good news is that this might slow down the number of edits on the site!! :) --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 15:18, March 2, 2012 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I use FireFox. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 17:12, March 2, 2012 (UTC)

Hi, I created the Russ Gremlin page simply because I believe that the recent purple Gremlin diecast recently realeased by Mattel is not the diecast of J. Curby Gremlin as some people believed, because Amazon & eBay both have the purple Gremlin named Russ Gremlin.

I need a little help
Hey there dude, could you help me with somethin please? Thanks!! -- <font color="Green">GrouchMan (<font color="Green" size="1">Send a note then scram!! P.S. Have a rotten day!!!! ) 14:21, April 13, 2012 (UTC)
 * I can try! --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 22:05, April 13, 2012 (UTC)

Apologies for removing the reference on Enrico Casarosa, it didn't show up in editor and I must've deleted by accident. Sorry. :)
 * Hey, no problem! That's the beauty of a wiki, everyone is there to contribute and fix mistakes! It's just great to have more people helping out and caring enough to add to the site! --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 00:26, May 7, 2012 (UTC)

Block recommendation
(I hope this isn't presumptuous; I am a fellow admin, though not on this wiki, and have recently taken this kind of action myself.)

I think PixarFan2012 should be blocked, or at least sternly warned, as this (despite the username) appears to be a vandalism-only account. He's added nonsense pages such as Beach Chair 2, and even moved the Sid Phillips page to "Ludwig von[sic] Beethoven" (since moved back, of course).

(On a side note, how does one get one's talk-page title into the " aka " format? I'd like to do this to my own talk pages.)

— RobertATfm 23:39, May 8, 2012 (UTC)
 * No, this is not presumptuous - the admins here always appreciate help in ferreting out vandalism. I have blocked that user - we have had troubles with that user before, using similarly named accounts. Thanks!
 * As for the AKA format, I'm not sure, I think it just showed up one day. But I think you need to fill out your profile - there should be an edit link to the far right of your user page. Let me know if you still have problems with it. Thanks again! --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 04:50, May 9, 2012 (UTC)

Main Page Icon Revamp
I noticed the icons haven't changed since this started. Which is cool, consistency and all, but I couldn't help but dread the plain look of the isolated characters on white. Especially on a Wikia for a place such as Pixar. I thought making the movie icons resemble posters we've all seen before would better associate the movie how the public identifies them. Here's an example of the main page with updated icons.

Doesn't it bring much more LIFE?! :)

Thejoeludwig 07:37, May 30, 2012 (UTC)
 * Are you talking about just changing the film icons? Yes, I mostly like the look of your sample page. My one concern is that due to the small size, the icons shouldn't have too much detail, otherwise it will get lost in the small size. But I think what you've done will work. If you want, go ahead and make those changes to the the main page and let's see what others think. Thanks! --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 15:09, May 30, 2012 (UTC)

Brave
This new movie is interesting. Do you know if anybody has made a wiki for it yet? I tried w:c:Brave but it seems to be taken up by some unrelated anime fanfic stuff. If it hasn't been done, any good ideas for a URL? I figured maybe w:c:PixarBrave or maybe if based on earlier potential titles like "Bear and Bow? It looks interesting and I imagine people might want to make individual pages for the characters as it gains popularity. Are we allowed to do that for all characters on the Pixar wikia or only major ones? +Yc 23:36, June 6, 2012 (UTC)
 * Hi! Thanks for your recent image additions to some of the Brave related pages. I don't know of any wiki's dedicated solely to Brave but hopefully you've noticed we have a ton of information on it here on the Pixar wiki. Please feel free to continue contributing information to the wiki here. We are not limited to only major characters, and pride ourselves in providing a very wide range of information, not just on Brave, but all of Pixar's feature and short films, plus the artists at the studio. I would recommend checking out some of the pages for Pixar's other films like Toy Story 3 and Cars, and see how in-depth those pages go into topics like characters, trivia, cast and crew. Please let me know if you have any questions. Thanks again! --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 23:53, June 6, 2012 (UTC)

User:The_BABAM_Studios -- spammer?
I just came across this: http://pixar.wikia.com/User_blog:The_BABAM_Studios/Pokemon_Card_Creator

I don't know about you, but to me this looks like purest spam; after all, what on earth has Pokémon got to do with Pixar or any of its projects? Unless of course they know something we don't... -- RobertATfm 14:01, June 25, 2012 (UTC)
 * Yea, it's definitely not Pixar-related. Thanks for the heads-up, I'll keep a watch it. Since it's just his personal blog post, I'll let it stay for now. Thanks again! --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 14:37, June 25, 2012 (UTC)

User:Geosworld2011 spammer?
Hi, I noticed that the user Geosworld2011 has uploaded an image of the tv series "South Park". I know that "South Park" has nothing to do with Pixar or Disney. The image is actually a candidate for deletion. Can you delete it?

Triple account
Hi! I thought that since I love the order, I can also help pointing out some problems. I wanna signal that the user User:Disney14ph12 have 3 accounts: Disney14ph12, Velociraptor145 and ToontasticToon212.

Cars4ever (talk) 21:11, July 20, 2012 (UTC)


 * Cars4ever, unless a user has one or more secondary accounts in order to run a bot (at least, as far as I know that's a legitimate use), having such accounts (especially if for a known malicious purpose, such as sockpuppetry) is a violation of Wikia T&Cs, and as such should really be reported to (and dealt with by) Wikia Staff or the VSTF, not local admins. -- RobertATfm (talk) 02:21, July 21, 2012 (UTC)

Pixar 3's editing
Hi! In these days we have to fix Pixar 3's editing. He continue to upload new different versions of the images. Example: recently he uploaded a new version of an Ivan's image. The new version was the Time Travel Mater logo. And he continue also to add a small version of Beach Chair's image of which I have uploaded an HQ photo. What can we do?

Sorry for the errors Cars4ever - Pixar Wiki - (talk) 08:24, August 9, 2012 (UTC)
 * You wrote a message on his talk page regarding this edits, and I have also warned him on some of his edits. I will continue to keep an eye on him, but if he doesn't improve his editing he may end up getting blocked. Thanks for the note. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 20:51, August 9, 2012 (UTC)

Blocking this user
Hello, User:Satan567 has been vandalizing the main page, adding an inappropriate image. He has to be blocked, and the image he uploaded, File:Goatse.jpg, deleted. He likely is the same editor that made vandalisms earlier today. In case this might take some time, I blanked the image in question... Thanks ! Gray Catbird (talk) 22:30, August 20, 2012 (UTC)
 * I've blocked the user and deleted that file. Thanks for the note and rolling back his changes. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 23:09, August 20, 2012 (UTC)

The idiot has come back as User:Satan687, and this time did a "look at me, I'm stupid" edit to your own profile page (which I've reverted for you). He's also reuploaded File:Goatse.jpg, and uploaded an image of the Nazi blood flag which he used in his vandalism of your page. (The motivation of such people boggles my mind; if I were that idiotic, I'd want to avoid drawing attention to that fact.)

I recommend that you not only delete those images, but also protect them against being re-created. -- RobertATfm (talk) 08:33, August 21, 2012 (UTC)
 * Thanks for cleaning things up. Good idea about protecting those images, I've just deleted them but if the come back I will replace them and lock them down. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 12:35, August 21, 2012 (UTC)
 * Here we go again... Vandalized your user page. Block this user and delete this image...It's aweful. I think we need support from wikia. Gray Catbird (talk) 00:42, August 22, 2012 (UTC)

And again... User:LittleLasVegas, who this time (before I reverted his vandalism to your page) threatened to "delete" all pages you've created. Evidently, among his other mental deficiencies, he's too dumb to realise that although ordinary users can blank pages (if they're itching to get banned), only admins and above can truly delete them. And isn't it time that you archived this talk page? It's very long, and I doubt that more than the bottom third is still current. -- RobertATfm (talk) 12:53, August 25, 2012 (UTC)
 * Thanks, I have blocked him. Fortunately he isn't like the other recent vandals we have had - he seems just angry about people (me) undoing his edits.
 * Is there an "archive" function I can perform on the page? Or do you mean just manually removing the content? Yes, I could do that, I suppose 4 pages of table of contents is a bit much. :) --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 14:59, August 25, 2012 (UTC)
 * I don't think there's any way to automate archiving of a talk page, but fortunately doing it manually isn't very difficult:


 * 1) Add a section at the top called "Archived discussions" or whatever you want to call it.
 * 2) To this section, add one or more links to subpages of your talk page, such as User_talk:Dvcnut/Archive_1 or User_talk:Dvcnut/2007_discussions or whatever you want to call the page(s).
 * 3) Cut the text you want to archive from this page.
 * 4) Paste that text into the new page redlinked from the section you just made, with a note at the top (and perhaps the bottom as well) saying that this is an archive page and must not be edited. Save.
 * 5) Perhaps protect the page to enforce the no-editing rule.
 * 6) If you think you have enough accumulated material for more than one archive page, rinse and repeat.
 * See Doom Wiki:Central Processing for an example of this having been done (several times, the three most recent by me a couple of months ago). -- RobertATfm (talk) 20:32, August 25, 2012 (UTC)
 * Yea, that looks cool, thanks for the pointers. I'll look at implementing that here in the near future. Thanks again. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 22:26, August 25, 2012 (UTC)

Message from Wikia staff
Jeff, please see the last entry on my talk page, from Kate. What do you think? Thanks! - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 01:43, October 31, 2012 (UTC)
 * Interesting. So it's not like a contest, where we put up our best page and people going to the different wikis vote on which of the best pages they think are best? It's just a way to drive traffic to the site (well, to a specific page)? Hmm. I don't think I have a problem with it, besides trying to decide which page we're most proud of! What do you feel about it? --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 03:25, October 31, 2012 (UTC)
 * It's fine with me, but like you said, no idea which page to use!.... - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 09:08, October 31, 2012 (UTC)
 * I would think one of the film pages may be an option. Toy Story 3 seems very complete, is a recent film and the Toy Story universe is very popular. Also, if "best" equals "complete", what you have done with Cars Die-Cast Line is amazing and really demonstrates dedication, so I think that would be a good choice. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 17:54, October 31, 2012 (UTC)
 * Thanks, but I agree on something from the Toy Story series. I was already thinking along those lines as well. Need something that has content that reads well. I like Toy Story 3 as well for the page since, like you said, it's more recent. If you think it is complete and well written to your liking, I think we should submit that page. Thanks! - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 18:31, October 31, 2012 (UTC)
 * Reading it over, it does need some cleanup. I will try fixing it tonight and let you know. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 19:01, October 31, 2012 (UTC)
 * Oh, OK, sure. Thanks! - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 19:19, October 31, 2012 (UTC)
 * OK, I've made a number of updates to the page. I'm sure there is more that can be done but I think it's in good enough shape. If you have time, look it over and let me know if there are any gaps that should be fixed, otherwise I think it's good to go! Thanks. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 02:32, November 1, 2012 (UTC)
 * Jeff, another message from the staff on my talk page. Take a look. I have no problems with it. Don't know why they always post only on my page..... - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 03:37, December 11, 2012 (UTC)

Videos
Hey Jeff, I saw your message. I can put the new featured videos section on the right column, but you might want to remove some of those posters (or I can make them smaller) so the whole main page evens out. Let me know what you think about that. I will also add a link under Community to the Nav Bar like you suggested!  <font color="Black">PORTERFIELD  20:39, December 11, 2012 (UTC)

Is it okay to use the recent file uploads on my Car versions of real-life people, landmarks and movie characters blog as to show the human versions of some of these?
Sorry for the recent file uploads. I was using these pictures on my Car versions of real-life people, landmarks and movie characters blog post as to show the normal versions of these stuff when they are changed in the Cars films, which I didn't know that it straight away uploaded the pictures before I was adding captions to show their names. Am I okay to use the pictures on the blog? --Lightening McQueen (talk) 21:52, December 17, 2012 (UTC)

I am sorry. --Lightening McQueen (talk) 22:01, December 17, 2012 (UTC)


 * Also, I don't know how to remove the pictures. Is it okay to use them for the blog or shall I still remove them? And how do you remove pictures? --Lightening McQueen (talk) 22:05, December 17, 2012 (UTC)


 * I'm very sorry. --Lightening McQueen (talk) 22:17, December 17, 2012 (UTC)

Video Gallery on Monster's University Page
Hey Jeff! I was wondering if it's okay to put up a small video gallery on the page. The two trailers look a bit awkward there; we could add a bit more videos to the list and reorganize it to look tidy, like the picture gallery underneath it. Or I could just put one underneath the trailers. Let me know if that's okay. Thanks! <font color="Blue">Manny 20:09, January 7, 2013 (UTC)
 * Hey, that would be awesome! I like how we did the Brave gallery, with videos and featurettes as sub-sections of gallery. Thanks much! If you have any questions let me know. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 01:00, January 8, 2013 (UTC)

New Disney Infinity video game with Pixar worlds
Comingsoon.net and the Disney website have shown that Disney Interactive Studios has announced a new video game called Disney Infinity, which it will include Pixar worlds and characters, and have you able to do some of the original stories and create your own stories and worlds. It has collectible figures of the characters, like Skylanders. I think it will be an exciting game, especially that I'm a big fan of Cars, and I'm happy that Cars will be included in the game. Shall we make a page for it, as it does have Pixar worlds and characters? --Lightening McQueen (talk) 20:25, January 16, 2013 (UTC)
 * Since you first asked Ryan this question on his talk page, I have responded there. Thanks. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 21:49, January 16, 2013 (UTC)

Navigation Templates
I made a navigation template for all the Pixar movies in a sandbox on my userpage that can be put all on the movie pages. I think this template helps access similar topics easier. Before I put it on the page, I would like an admin's approval as this is a decoration idea and not Pixar facts. You can see it here. LevenThumps (talk) 01:07, February 12, 2013 (UTC)
 * First, welcome to our Wiki! I look forward to more of your edits and contributions!
 * As for your film navigation template, so you're thinking this would go on each film page? Currently we use the Movies and Upcoming categories for the same purpose. Your idea would be slightly quicker, as it saves the visitor from having to first go to the category page, but since we do have the categories it would be redundant. Let me think about it, and I may see what others think about it. Thanks! --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 01:34, February 12, 2013 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the welcome! I appreciate your consideration with this, and hope to help this wiki in many ways. If you approve, I can make one for Pixar shorts as well. LevenThumps (talk) 01:38, February 12, 2013 (UTC)

Spoiler Policy
Since there will be a new Pixar movie coming out soon, and I am still very new to this wiki, I would like to ask what the rule is for spoilers on this wiki? Do we put a spoiler tag at the top of the page? Do we wait a few weeks after release before putting the full summary? Any and all help is appreciated. LevenThumps (talk) 13:21, February 13, 2013 (UTC)
 * Good question, thanks for asking it! We have a no spoilers policy prior to the film's general release. It can sometimes be a chore to keep all the spoilers out, but we do our best! As we get closer to the film's release (or, if there are pre-screenings), I'll probably put a warning message on the film page to not include spoilers until after the release. Once the film is released, it won't take too many days before people have put in the plot summary. I don't know if we've done it before, but I would like to put a spoilers warning at the top of the film page, at least for a couple of weeks after the release to warn people. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 13:57, February 13, 2013 (UTC)
 * Would you like me to make a spoiler template to put on top of recently released media pages? I've made them before and could make one for this wiki. LevenThumps (talk) 17:33, February 13, 2013 (UTC)
 * I made a spoiler template in my sandbox. You can see it here if you wish. If you like it, I would like to customize it for this wiki. Many wikis have a quote from their topic to represent spoilers, and Pixar certainly has enough content to find a quote that could represent spoilers. I would also like to add a picture from the scene the quote is given in. LevenThumps (talk) 18:01, February 13, 2013 (UTC)

Admin?
I just want to know if you think I can become an admin on this wikia. And if you don't, then a bureaucrat?

You see BLACK, then WHITE, then PURPLE! 12:35, April 7, 2013 (UTC)
 * Thanks for asking. At this time I think we're good with admins. If you want to be considered sometime in the future, I'd recommend becoming more active on the wiki, but in addition, make sure you are making valuable edits. Thanks. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 14:30, April 8, 2013 (UTC)

AnthonyDaBest Block
Hey buddy I heard about what you did to that anothony kid. The one who wasn't making contributations what gives you the right to block him for goofing off? You can only block someone when they troll or spam or just downright rude. I checked the dudes history and you blocked even after he stopped when you asked. Don't even think aboiut blocking me I am just defending him because he got blocked over something that what? annoyed  you?

Well?


 * Hi Jeff, the guy above's message is unintelligible unless you know about this blog post: User:AnthonyDaBest has been complaining on Community Central that his blocking here was unfair. AnthonyDaBest claims to have done nothing wrong; I don't know the truth here, since I never checked what he did on chat.
 * All this seems quite trivial, but he's got quite a response to his blog post. May be we should clear things up ? I was thinking may be we could change his status from being completely blocked to just banned from chat ? --Gray Catbird (talk) 18:28, April 16, 2013 (UTC)
 * Gray Catbird, thanks. No, I didn't understand Lightbuster30's comments and found them inappropriate, so felt it was best not to reply. But thanks for pointing out what's going on on Community Central. I have no intentions of unblocking this user - his purpose seemed to only be chatting and he abused multiple user accounts. And the fact that this all occurred over 1 1/2 years ago, I'm not sure why it's coming up now. I will comment on the Community Central post and hopefully that will help resolve this. Thanks again! --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 19:56, April 16, 2013 (UTC)


 * Wait he abused peoples accounts he never mentioned that.Did you ever think that maybe I felt bad for him at first seriously I mean abusing peoples accounts? Ok I get that but the goofing off part. That is his buisness no one said you need to contribute I mean I try to add
 * contribute too but still.....


 * Oh and ps don't ever insult me like that. I pointed out that trolling and spamming are one of the few ways to get booted. Tell me what made my comment un-understandable?.
 * So let's straighten out some things. First, when you write on a talk page you should end your message with ~ . This leaves a signature so people know who left the message. It's much more convenient that having to dig through the page history trying to figure it out. Second, he wasn't abusing other people's accounts - he had created multiple user accounts for himself, which is against wiki rules. Third, no, goofing around is not actually only his business. This wiki is not for goofing around; it is for people interested in Pixar-related information. If someone is not interested in contributing to the pages here, and only wants to goof off, then they need to find someplace else to do that. This is a large wiki with thousands of pages and editors, and is used by people interested in finding out more about Pixar. We have a very small group of admins to maintain the site. We have enough to do to keep up with real requests and issues, and definitely don't have time for people who are not serious in contributing to the site. I hope this explains our position better. Thanks. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 21:26, April 16, 2013 (UTC)

Harv's Different Lines in Different Versions
Earlier this month, Lukwisnie and I had put some differences of Harv's lines in the United States and United Kingdom versions of Cars. It is also good that I live in the United Kingdom, so I've got the rest of his lines in the United Kingdom here, but can you help me to tell if they have any differences to in the United States? Here are the lines in the UK: There is also a video made by the public that tells about Jeremy Clarkson's role, including some of his lines. --Lightening McQueen (talk) 20:10, April 25, 2013 (UTC)

Hey
can u enable badges? I love stamps and I&#39;m 22. (talk) 22:33, May 27, 2013 (UTC)
 * Please look at User talk:RaptorWiki for why badges aren't enabled here. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 13:07, May 28, 2013 (UTC)
 * I thoroughly agree. Whilst badges are supposed to encourage editing, in my experience they mainly encourage vandal editing (or inane editing for the sake of racking up the badges) rather than genuine constructive edits. For this reason, they were disabled (at my request) on the Fastmail wiki, and have never been enabled on any wiki I've founded. I reckon the badge system is the dumbest idea ever implemented by Wikia, although the visual editor comes a close second. -- RobertATfm (talk) 16:14, May 29, 2013 (UTC)

Hello
I am wonering how I can work the chat on the wikis like how ot get email notifications etc. What I am REALLY looking for is the upload of the Finding Nemo Stunt bits found exclusively on the Blu ray of Nemo as they are bits of animation that I would love to see. my you tube channel is Patrick J. McKenna.
 * Hi. I looked through my preferences page and didn't see anything about chat and getting notifications, but you might want to double-check that. As for the Stunt bits, I'm actually not familiar with that part of the blu-ray. Have you done any Google or YouTube searches to see if it shows up? Since it is copyright material it may not be available. Sorry I can't be of much more assistance. Good luck! --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 02:52, June 25, 2013 (UTC)

Affiliating other wikis
Would you like to have this wiki affiliated with these following wikis: Lightening McQueen (talk) 22:40, June 27, 2013 (UTC)
 * World of Cars Wiki
 * Monsters, Inc. Wiki
 * If you're wondering if I'd like those wikis to be affiliates of the Pixar wiki, that would be cool. I don't handle any of the affiliate stuff, but you can click the link under the Community -&gt; Affiliates section to request it. If you're asking if the Pixar wiki wants to be an affiliate of those other sites, that I'm not sure about. I haven't spent any time on either of those wikis. I would have to research that. Thanks. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 12:45, June 28, 2013 (UTC)

Wikia Community Podcast
Hey there!

I left a message on RaptorWiki's talk page about this already but would you be interested in being a guest admin on Community Development's podcast? We wanted to discuss Monsters University this week and we'd love to feature you on it! We'll be recording this week so let me know if you're interested and which times would be good for you.

Thanks!

<font color="Blue">Kate 17:38, July 1, 2013 (UTC)
 * Hi Kate! Thanks for the offer! I actually was just on The Pixar Post podcast last week to discuss Monsters, Inc. This week is unfortunately busy, I have plans tomorrow evening, then will be out of town for the weekend starting Wednesday. Maybe next time? --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 02:56, July 2, 2013 (UTC)


 * Oh nice! So we'll be recording tomorrow since we want to get the podcast up ASAP so if you would like to join us for about an hour in the afternoon that would be great! Otherwise thanks for your offer and hopefully we'll get to have you on the podcast next time :) I'll try reaching out to another admin on here as well.

Regarding Spoilers Notices
Hello! I was thinking the Spoilers template was no longer needed on MU pages, since it's been three weeks since the film has been released. I was considering removing it... However, before I do anything, I just want to check if you agree with this ? Thanks! Gray Catbird (talk) 23:21, July 4, 2013 (UTC)
 * Yes, I think it's OK to remove it. Thanks! --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 19:34, July 6, 2013 (UTC)
 * OK, I have proceeded in removing them. Thanks for you answer ! Gray Catbird (talk) 22:51, July 6, 2013 (UTC)

A Movie Navigaiton Template?
I have a suggestion for a temaplate. You could put it on all of the movie pages so that users can navigate back an forth through the films. Just like the Next island template on Poptropica Wiki, a wiki I'm a bureaucrat on. It works similar to this:

<-Previous Brave Next->

For instance, if you click the previous button it goes to the Cars 2 page, if you click the next button it goes to the Monsters University page. The word Brave in the middle could be replaced by the Brave logo. I believe this would be beneficial to the wiki and easier the navigate through the Pixar film pages.

Thanks, Ultimate iPad Expert Talk 01:52, July 17, 2013 (UTC)
 * Hmm, an interesting idea! I can see benefits to having such a navigational system. I see you wrote on the other admin's talk pages; let's hear what they think about it before deciding whether or not to move forward. Thanks for the suggestion! --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 02:06, July 17, 2013 (UTC)
 * Sounds like a plan! Ultimate iPad Expert Talk 02:21, July 17, 2013 (UTC)
 * Actually, I went ahead and added something to the Monsters University page, take a look and let me know what you think. I used the Timeline template and modified it. I still want feedback from the other admins. I'm not sold on it yet. Also, if we do move ahead with it, I have problems with its location and if it should be across the whole top or just half of it like I have it. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 02:35, July 17, 2013 (UTC)
 * It's looks good, but I think we should change the color of the template to the Pixar blue color (#BBCEE6 in hex), and I think it should go on the complete top, if we go with it. Here's an example:
 * {| style="border: 2px solid #000000; background: #BBCEE6; margin-top: 20px; margin-bottom: 20px" width="50%" cellpadding="3" align="left"


 * style="padding-left: 15px" width="5%" align="right" | <<
 * style="padding-left: 5px" width="25%" align="left" | Brave
 * style="padding-right: 5px" width="25%" align="right" | The Good Dinosaur
 * style="padding-right: 15px" width="5%" align="left" | >>
 * }
 * We could even replace the names of the movies with the logos. Like this:
 * {| style="border: 2px solid #000000; background: #BBCEE6; margin-top: 20px; margin-bottom: 20px" width="50%" cellpadding="3" align="left"


 * style="padding-left: 15px" width="5%" align="right" | <<
 * style="padding-left: 5px" width="25%" align="left" | Brave logo openning.png
 * style="padding-right: 5px" width="25%" align="right" | 2.png
 * style="padding-right: 15px" width="5%" align="left" | >>
 * }
 * Maybe in black, like so:
 * {| style="border: 2px solid #000000; background: #000000; margin-top: 20px; margin-bottom: 20px" width="50%" cellpadding="3" align="left"


 * style="padding-left: 15px" width="5%" align="right" | <<
 * style="padding-left: 5px" width="25%" align="left" | Brave logo openning.png
 * style="padding-right: 5px" width="25%" align="right" | 2.png
 * style="padding-right: 15px" width="5%" align="left" | >>
 * }
 * Ultimate iPad Expert Talk 02:53, July 17, 2013 (UTC)
 * OK, I used your blue background version and put it across the top. Let's see what people think. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 03:24, July 17, 2013 (UTC)
 * Okay, I personally like it!
 * Ultimate iPad Expert Talk 03:25, July 17, 2013 (UTC)
 * I think it can be useful to have such navigation system. But... I have a few comments on the box currently on the MU page. My biggest and most urgent problem is that now the wiki is using the Brave logo for the thumbnail image of the page, instead of the MU logo, which is very misleading. (Example:look at it here) I am not familiar with the workings of this kind of code, so I don't know how this could be solved; but I know that if the box was lower in the source code than the "film" template, it would work fine, but then I guess it wouldn't look good.


 * I also think its appearance could be improved... It feels like it's not integrated in the page. A minor change I am thinking of is that the bold black line around it should be thinner, to fit our other templates. And there's nothing that indicates what is this box about. Maybe write something like "Pixar films chronology", or "previous/next film" ? --Gray Catbird (talk) 22:18, July 18, 2013 (UTC)
 * I agree with your two statements, we could put the template on the bottom of the page (unless someone could fix that problem). I've seen that same problem with the spoiler template also. I think it also should have a name on it such as Pixar films chronology. By the way, if you'd two like we could meet on the chat to discuss anything further, since this message is getting pretty long.
 * Ultimate iPad Expert Talk 00:14, July 19, 2013 (UTC)
 * I have fixed the thumbnail photo problem, by adding a code. I can't get it to show up on this page, so edit the page to see it inside the following parentheses ( [[Image:]] ). What you do is add the code to the very first part of the page and replace [[Image:]] with the image that you want as the thumbnail, then it should change the image. I did it on the Monsters University page so feel free to check with that. Ultimate iPad Expert Talk 00:53, July 19, 2013 (UTC)
 * Ooh, that is a nasty and ugly bug. I don't like having to hide an image at the top of the page to get that to take precedence for the thumbnail image. I think we need to think more about this. I don't like the navigation at the bottom of the page - our movie pages are so long, almost no one will go all the way to the bottom to switch to a different movie. I like having the navigation bar, but I know Ryan doesn't see a use for it. So for now I think we need to remove it from Monsters University. I also removed the spoiler template from Finding Dory as that was causing the same problem. Maybe the solution is as simple as not using images, which I think I'd like better - it would be more streamlined. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 01:30, July 19, 2013 (UTC)
 * I like your plan, we should just use the text, but I do like the title in the middle of the template.
 * Ultimate iPad Expert Talk 01:42, July 19, 2013 (UTC)
 * Should I add it to the other Movie pages?
 * Ultimate iPad Expert Talk 02:45, July 19, 2013 (UTC)
 * It seems to me that the only way this would make sense, is to use chronological order, not alphabetical order. But really, I don't see anyone using it. I think it just becomes clutter. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 09:20, July 19, 2013 (UTC)
 * It is to be used for chronological order, and I think it could be useful for users that don't know very much about Pixar.
 * Ultimate iPad Expert Talk 14:28, July 19, 2013 (UTC)
 * Even so, I don't see it being used, thus becoming clutter. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 20:26, July 19, 2013 (UTC)
 * Yea, I'm usually on the page of less clutter. But I think the version we have, without images, is pretty streamlined, fits well on the page and doesn't look gaudy. And I can see advantages to being able to go directly between movie pages. I'm pretty torn about it though, so if you think this is just an abomination I'm fine removing it. Otherwise I will create a template for it. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 23:39, July 19, 2013 (UTC)
 * Well I'm not that against it being there, but I really don't think it will be used. But if you think it fits well, then I say go for it for now. I could take it or leave it, so up to you :) - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 13:29, July 20, 2013 (UTC)
 * I created the template and have started adding it to the movie pages. I'm not done so if someone wants to continue adding the template (called FilmNav), that would be great. The title doesn't seem to be centered in the navigation box, not sure what's up with that. Will have to look later. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 03:32, July 21, 2013 (UTC)

Blog help
Do you have any useful tips of how I can make adjustments to my blog to make it better? Thanks.
 * Sorry, that's quite an open-ended question! By making it better, I think you mean formatting changes? I'm not familiar with the Blogs here on the wiki but I would think you can format the pages just like any other page can be formatted. But if you're serious about doing a blog you might want to look into sites like wordpress or Blogger. These sites will have pre-made templates and integration with social networking sites like Twitter and Google+ that might be useful. For instance, the blog I write (ThisDayInPixar.com) is hosted on Google Blogger. Good luck!

Cars 2 trivia
Whats up with the Cars 2 trivia? I noticed that it says, "This is the first Pixar film to have swearing." Sure it has some insults, but do they REALLY count as swearing?--Lucasdials (talk) 03:57, July 18, 2013 (UTC)Lucas
 * I don't recall if there was swearing in the film. If you don't think there's any swearing you can remove it and add an edit summary explaining why you removed it. If someone disagrees, they can add it back.
 * Also, you should always end your talk messages with " --~ ". This will insert your signature so others will know who left the message on their talk page. There is a button in the top edit toolbar (about the 5th from the right) to automatically insert these characters. For instance, here is my signature: --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 03:56, July 18, 2013 (UTC)

Hi!

Today I saw that a new vandal named "Stupidpieceofguyz" vandalized two pages, and completely destroyed them. The first was Gray Catbird's user profile. The other one was the Cars 2 page, he erased EVERYTHING and wrote a really offensive message.

Affiliating Disney Infinity Wiki ?
I received a message on my talk page from The100YearOldOnion who proposes to affiliate Disney Infinity Wiki with Pixar Wiki. I for one, have no problem with it, but I would like to have your opinion before giving an answer... Thanks ! --Gray Catbird (talk) 18:49, August 2, 2013 (UTC)
 * I don't think I have a problem with the Disney Infinity Wiki affiliating with us. To be honest, I don't know a lot about the rules surrounding affiliating, the benefits, etc. I looked for the Affiliates page on Disney Infinity Wiki but couldn't find it. I'd like to see their affiliates page before we give our final answer. But according to our Affiliates page, they should add a link and our image to their wiki first, and then apply via the Affiliates link.

New Hebrew wiki
Hey there! My name is Shani, i'm 16 years old from Israel and i'm a big fan of Pixar franchise. I recently opened a Hebrew Pixar wiki, and it is going pretty well. Alongside this, i'm also running the Hebrew wikis of Doctor Who and The Lord of the Rings.

My request to you is, if you could do your... thing that will allow me to add ILLs to my wiki that will turn the readers to the English articles. Hope I made myself clear.

Thanks! if you like to see the wiki, there it is. Puchplimmirdeyslithin (talk) 13:48, August 14, 2013 (UTC)
 * Hi Shani! Congratulations on your Pixar wiki, and the other ones! As a fan of Doctor Who and Lord of the Rings (and of course Pixar!), it's always nice to see these properties get promoted! I believe what you are asking is that we add an interlanguage link from our site to your Hebrew site? I don't have a problem doing that. I tried adding a link on the Pixar wiki main page (where we have the other ILLs) and it didn't work. For instance, I added, similar to how the other ILLs are done, and it doesn't show up in the list. Maybe one of the other admins here will understand why not, otherwise you may need to go to to community central and ask them - perhaps there is something they need to do to support new language links? --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 15:04, August 14, 2013 (UTC)
 * Indeed, for interlanguage links to work between two wikis, Wikia has to create a bridge between them. So it is necessary to make a request at this place on Community Central. This has already been done for some languages, but not yet for Hebrew. --Gray Catbird (talk) 15:58, August 14, 2013 (UTC)

Thank you for the response. I made a request at the community central, hope they'll do it soon! Puchplimmirdeyslithin (talk) 16:45, August 14, 2013 (UTC)

Now it should work. Do you mind checking again? Puchplimmirdeyslithin (talk) 17:44, August 14, 2013 (UTC)
 * No, still doesn't seem to be working. The 2 character language code is "HE", right? --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 20:20, August 14, 2013 (UTC)

Yes, it is. Maybe it hasn't confirmed yet. We should wait until tomorrow. Puchplimmirdeyslithin (talk) 21:41, August 14, 2013 (UTC)

 * And also, I've noticed that there are some other wikis on the same subject:


 * http://toystory72.wikia.com/wiki/Toy_Story_Wiki
 * http://toystoryfanatic.wikia.com/wiki/Toy_Story_fans_Wiki
 * http://thetoystoryencyclopedia.wikia.com/wiki/Home

 * http://waltdisneystoystory.wikia.com/wiki/Toy_Story_Wiki
 * http://toystorymovie.wikia.com/wiki/Toy_Story_Wiki
 * Also, there is a Toy Story Merchandise wiki, LEGO Toy Story video game wiki and Buzz Lightyear of Star Command wiki. --Lightening McQueen (talk) 16:01, September 5, 2013 (UTC)
 * Wow, a lot of Pixar love in these wikis! I'm not sure if there's something you think we should do? --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 18:22, September 5, 2013 (UTC)

Ruining Red hair
Guess again, Jeff. You blocked me! YOU ATTACKING ME!! YOU RUINED MY LIFE!!! Don't you get it?!?!?!?! YOU'RE OUT OF PIXAR WIKIA!!!!!! --Red hair (talk) 16:27, September 06, 2013 (UTC)
 * Well, I'm sorry if you feel I'm ruining your life. I did block you but am in no way attacking you. Our wiki will only grow and prosper if we work together. I'd very much like for you to continue being a contributor here on the Pixar wiki but there are a couple rules you must follow. First, we have agreed it's too early and there's not enough information to state that Riley is the protagonist. Yes, it's very likely in the end she will be, but with the information we currently have we can't make that decision. I don't think it is "ruining your life" if you can't put the term protagonist on her page. So please stop trying to add that to her page. Second, using UPPERCASE letters and lots of exclamation points can make people feel intimidated or threatened. And making statements like "you're out of Pixar wikia" or that you're going to "protect" a page is not helpful, and false since you don't have permission to do those things. Threatening and intimidating behavior is grounds for permanent banning from the site.
 * So you have a couple of choices. You realize we can ban you from this site. I really don't want to do that, but you are on your last chance. Stop re-editing our changes, especially to Riley's page, and refrain from intimidating behavior. Otherwise, the next ban will be permanent. I hope you think through this in a calm fashion, as I have tried to write this response. It's your choice how you respond. Thanks. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 17:49, September 6, 2013 (UTC)

The Pixar Theory
Hey there! :) I'm so happy our wikis were finally linked, you can see my wiki's main page now, i added a graphic list of the wikis in the bottom of the page. Anyways, i wanted to consult with you about the option of adding a "Pixar Theory" article. I believe you read the theory (and if you don't, you should read it here), I actually first entered the Pixar universe threw it, and i believe it should get an article here. I translated the theory to Hebrew, and i'm going to write the Hebrew article anyway. Do you think it has a place in your wiki? If it is, I can take the burden of writing it.

Waiting to your answer! -- Puchplimmirdeyslithin (talk)
 * Hello again! Yes, I have read through most of that article. It was a fun and interesting read, and made me think! As for having an article or page here on the wiki, that would not be appropriate. Our wiki is meant for only official Pixar information, and the Pixar Theory is fiction. If someone wanted to write a blog post here on the wiki, that would be totally appropriate. Thanks! --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 15:32, September 10, 2013 (UTC)


 * I'm totally gets your opinion. Thanks for the response! -- Puchplimmirdeyslithin (talk)
 * I was surprised to realize we actually have a page pertaining to the Pixar Theory on the wiki right now. It's called The Timeline of Pixar; it should be deleted I guess ? But yeah, the Pixar Theory is very interesting; I really like its elegance, how it has a general idea and progression. But I also agree it's not really the kind of thing we cover. Gray Catbird (talk) 23:48, September 10, 2013 (UTC)
 * Wow, didn't realize that page existed. I deleted it. I agree, someone went through a lot of work putting the theory together! It will be interesting to see if/how future films are included into it. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 01:25, September 11, 2013 (UTC)

Affiliating Lucasfilm Wiki ?
Hello Jeff! User:Byzantinefire left a message on my wall on Disney Wiki, asking if Pixar Wiki is interested to be affiliated with Lucasfilm Wiki. I am not sure myself what to say, so I wanted to consult you. It's true Pixar originates from Lucasfilm, but that's (in my knowledge) all there is of related between the two... Might be a bit far-fetched to have them as affiliates. What do you think ?--Gray Catbird (talk) 22:32, September 19, 2013 (UTC)
 * I guess I'm fine with it. Besides originating from Lucasfilm, both Lucasfilm and Pixar are owned by The Walt Disney Company, so in a sense they're one big happy family now. So yea, I'm cool with it. Thanks! --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 12:56, September 20, 2013 (UTC)

FINE! I'll take my Home Media Fun Facts somewhere else!

D13
Thanks for blocking D13. He adds way too many pics. Trust me, I know. --Kyurem147 (talk) 20:09, November 21, 2013 (UTC)
 * I don't understand... You have been adding as much if not more images as D134 lately... I'm starting to wonder if you aren't refusing to have D134's images just for personnal reasons ?--Gray Catbird (talk) 23:20, November 21, 2013 (UTC)

Images
Time out! Lets not go to far here. For one they were images of minor characters. Second of all I'm not gonna add lots of images of characters every time like D13. I only put the ones that are nesscesary. --Kyurem147 (talk) 02:08, November 22, 2013 (UTC)
 * Sorry, but 130 images of 1 minor character is "lots of images". How is that necessary? --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 02:51, November 22, 2013 (UTC)

I'm Back!
Hi Jeff! It's so nice to be back. I haven't edited in about two years, and this wiki has really progressed. I can't even catch up with all of the new movies, and short films, and new Cars Diecasts... Anyways, I wanted to know if I could be on the staff. But wait! Not now, but I mean to ask you what the edit requirement is. I have never really been an admin on any wiki, except for wikis that I created and nobody edits on. I also wanted to know who here is very active, because I have seen some people edit every few seconds. FYI: The reason I don't edit here much is because I like Angry Birds now, and I am just a passerby on that wiki. Well, it was nice to write to you, and tell all of the other admins that I said hi.

Sincerely,

Funnyboy2963

P.S.: It's okay if you didn't remember me, or even miss me.
 * Welcome back! Yes, it's great how well the wiki has grown, we have such a fantastic group of editors and contributors. I hope you enjoy getting active again here. As for joining the staff, I think at this time we're not in need of any new admins. We don't have official requirements, it's more based on how much time the existing admins have and finding active contributors who seem to share our philosophy for what the wiki should be and how it should grow. Thanks again for the nice words and welcome back! --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 16:07, January 6, 2014 (UTC)

Pixar Visit
Hey, Dvcnut! Wikia Staff is getting an opportunity to visit the Pixar Animation Studios, and we're asking people to submit questions for an interview with someone there! It would be great if you could promote this blog I just put up asking for people to submit questions. I know the fans in this community probably has a lot of great ones we could ask :) If we can link to the blog from the main page or something, that would be awesome. Let me know, thanks! Grace (profile)•(talk) 22:16, January 9, 2014 (UTC)

TheSitcomLover apologizing
TheSitcomLover had stated here on my message wall on World of Cars Wiki that he has apologized for the past vandalism and such on Monsters, Inc. Wiki, Pixar Wiki and Disney Wiki. He is asking me to ask you if he can be unblocked on Pixar Wiki and Disney Wiki after I have unblocked him on Monsters, Inc. Wiki. --Lightening McQueen (talk) 19:53, March 16, 2014 (UTC)
 * I am hesitant to unblock him - we gave him plenty of opportunities to modify his behavior which he never did. He's also been blocked from other wikis so this is obviously not an isolated case. But, if you've unblock him on the Monsters, Inc. Wiki, I'd say let's see how he behaves on that wiki for a few weeks. If there aren't any issues then I will consider unblocking him here. Thanks. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 01:07, March 17, 2014 (UTC)
 * I think TheSitcomLover is now better on Monsters, Inc. Wiki since apologizing (like not editing the antagonist level of Randall and Waternoose, and renaming Johnny's name with an additional "J."). However, he hadn't contributed on that wiki since March 19 (which I put in summaries about stuff like to have the word "plot" on what Waternoose was doing). --Lightening McQueen (talk) 15:26, April 2, 2014 (UTC)
 * TheSitcomLover has recently told me here that he promises to make constructive edits on Disney Wiki and Pixar Wiki, asking to be unblocked on these wikis. Here are his contributions on Monsters, Inc. Wiki. --Lightening McQueen (talk) 15:01, June 10, 2014 (UTC)
 * TheSitcomLover is asking why haven't you replied to my messages, and is hoping that you are willing to give him a chance. On the chat on Monsters, Inc. Wiki, he is saying that Randall is the main antagonist of Monsters, Inc. and the boss of Waternoose because that Waternoose stated that he had to banish Sulley because of Randall, but then Waternoose orders Randall to stop Sulley. I need some help here, along with that Gray Catbird stated on the Primary Villains category talk page that "Randall and Waternoose are both evil independently, for different reasons, but the situation makes that they work together," and that you said on Mctalwolfer's talk page that "our consensus on this wiki is that both Waternoose and Randall Boggs are both the primary antagonists." --Lightening McQueen (talk) 10:49, August 21, 2014 (UTC)
 * In case you didn't recieve it Jeff, TheSitcomLover also sent you a message on Community Central regarding this. If I can give my opinion, he has already been given countless chances, as you point out, and his behaviour didn't change. There's a limit. It's true it's been three years since, but he's still getting blocked from wikis today, which isn't a good sign. And your message, Lightening, seems to suggest you're still having some problems with him on that Monsters, Inc. Wiki?...
 * Regarding the other issue of the antagonist levels, I would agree with our position on Pixar Wiki. Of course, another wiki may settle on another opinion. I don't really think there is a ultimate truth regarding this. I disagree though that Randall is the boss of Waternoose, it's made quite clear in the film it's the opposite. Waternoose was forced to banish Mike and Sulley because they knew. He was forced by Randall only in the sense that Randall had failed to keep the child secret and now he had to fix the mess.Gray Catbird (talk) 15:42, August 21, 2014 (UTC)
 * Gray Catbird is correct. The fact that you are having issues with him still on who is or isn't an antagonist, and the fact he won't let it drop, just reinforces my decision (which I'm sure is supported by the other admins) to not unblock him. You can decide how you want to handle who is the "primary" antagonist on the Monsters, Inc. Wiki in whatever way you want; here, we made our decision based on the consensus of a number of our users. Thanks. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 15:49, August 21, 2014 (UTC)
 * I've decided that on Monsters, Inc. Wiki, it is the same as Pixar Wiki, especially since that I give thanks for Catbird on giving an explanation on the characters, and I would go with what the admins on other wikis go with.
 * But, also, I wonder what is the real level of Mater, Doc Hudson and Sally Carrera in Cars, as Flippinawesome had recently put that Doc and Mater are both deuteragonists of the film. --Lightening McQueen (talk) 14:49, September 7, 2014 (UTC)
 * What do you think the deuteragonist and tritagonist levels of Mater, Sally and Doc in Cars are on this wiki? --Lightening McQueen (talk) 15:42, September 20, 2014 (UTC)
 * Unfortunately, I am not the right person to ask that question, the *agonist stuff basically drives me batty. You could ask that question on the Cars talk page and see if anyone has an opinion. Thanks! --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 18:10, September 20, 2014 (UTC)

Proposing a new page
Hello Jeff! I am interested in making a page to list all the references in Pixar films to future films. Indeed, making a nod to the next film seems to have become a tradition as big as A113 or the Pizza Planet truck, one of these they cannot miss. And I also think it's a quite interesting type of Easter egg. Since I feel it is relatively unusual to add an all-new page about pan-Pixar films trivia, I just wanted to know if you had anything against this idea ? I have put what I would have in mind in the sandbox, which you can see here. Thanks !--Gray Catbird (talk) 03:37, April 30, 2014 (UTC)
 * Yes, I think that's a good idea! Would you put the page into the Trivia category? I think it also needs a reference section for any easter eggs coming from a future film. For instance, how did you know about The Good Dinosaur toys in Monsters University? Thanks! --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 13:02, April 30, 2014 (UTC)
 * Great! Yes, I would put the page at least in the Trivia category. I'm not sure if it would fit in the culture categories, however.
 * I will also defintively put in a ref section. Regarding the The Good Dinosaur, a toy matching the dinosaur we've seen everywhere (Arlo) has been recognized by many websites, and there is a tweet from Bob Peterson to support that; I think official sources didn't mention it however, but that I will have to check. I'll try to round that up to give a reference. I'm also planning on adding a gallery as well. Gray Catbird (talk) 19:46, April 30, 2014 (UTC)
 * Yes, I think Culture would also be a good category to have on it. And good point, I doubt we will get many official sources for films that have yet to be released. We'll just have to be watchful that people aren't adding fake things. It may be a subjective thing on what is or isn't from future films. Thanks. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 00:39, May 1, 2014 (UTC)

Difference between film and shorts characters
I have a question. What's the difference between the characters from the Pixar feature films and the characters from the Pixar short films? Shinnest (talk) 18:33, May 6, 2014 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure I understand your question? We don't create character categories for each individual short film, we just have a shorts characters category. But a character can be both a film and a short film character, like Sulley. If you have a specific example, please let me know and I'll try answering your question better! Thanks! --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 01:00, May 7, 2014 (UTC)

GrayWolf2 (talk) 01:50, June 4, 2014 (UTC)GrayWolf2
 * I didn't think the edits he made today were that bad. Usually, it is called a "pu pu" platter, not "poo poo", although I didn't do any research to see exactly how Pixar was spelling it. I don't know where he's getting the name "Sally" for the cockroach (he should reference an official source if so), but otherwise the edits today did not seem extraordinary. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 04:55, June 4, 2014 (UTC)

Please don't edit Waternoose again. I appreciate you're intresting nonesense well this is a wiki for pixar info only, and as pixar themselves say, Waternoose is the main adversary. thanks, Mctalwolfer.

Stinky Pete and Al McWhiggen Problem
Jeff Meredith believes that Al McWhiggen is the main antagonist, but to me and everyone else, Stinky Pete is the true main antagonist, while McWhiggen is the secondary antagonist, allow me to show you a source that says that Stinky Pete is the main antagonist,

Al McWhiggin and Stinky Pete
Larry1996 is messing with the Al McWhiggin and Stinky Pete articles in terms of who's the main and who's the secondary antagonist, despite the messages you sent him of why you undid his edits. I left him a message myself to leave those articles well enough alone, but if he ignores my message as well and continues, kindly block him if you would.

Edit Wars between Stinky Pete and Al McWhiggin
Wiki user Jeff Meredith says: "I'm sick and tired of everyone's changes on Stinky Pete! I'm serious! Larry1996 and I had an antagonist war between SP and Al McWhiggin, and Greywolf broke it up. Don't get us in trouble again. It's my final offer, take it or leave it." Frankly, I have to agree with him because I did resolve their edit wars. If Stinky Pete is the main antagonist and Al McWhiggin is the secondary antagonist, or vice versa, then it should say so in the article. So how will Al and Stinky Pete be classified antagonist-wise? Please get back.

GrayWolf2 (talk) 10:20, June 14, 2014 (UTC)GrayWolf2
 * The issue has been resolved. Jeff Meredith's language is threatening and he doesn't seem to understand a wiki must support multiple editors with many different opinions, some of which we will not agree with. A page does not belong to a single user. Due to his continued use of that type of language and continued editing of those pages after he was asked not to has led me to block him.
 * As for how they will be referred, we have been discussing this on Category_talk:Primary_Villains. As it stands now, Stinky Pete will be considered the primary antagonist and have the Primary Villains category. Al will be considered a secondary antagonist.
 * I'd like to thank you for your attempts at solving this edit war. But also want to point out that a page on wiki answers that says so and so is the antagonist, doesn't really mean he/she is the main antagonist. That's just one persons opinion. The Pixar wiki is primarily concerned with only official news and information from Pixar, but some topics like villains isn't always cleanly expressed by Pixar, Hopefully as a community we can make our own opinions and all be OK with it. Thanks again. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 16:12, June 14, 2014 (UTC)

Michaelljohnson again
Despite being banned, he has managed to vandalise the block message you left on his talk page. Did you leave that open for him to edit? (I reverted it.)

Also, is your profile really supposed to show as favourites, the two vanity wikis created by the spammer? — RobertATfm (talk) 19:45, June 14, 2014 (UTC)
 * Yea, I usually leave the user's talk page open so if they want to explain themselves they have that option - I'm pretty quick with the infinite blocking, which is drastic I admit, so I feel I should give the user a means to make amends until it is abused. I have closed his talk page so he won't be able to edit it anymore.
 * What, you don't think I should be advertising his websites are my favorites?! :) I obviously don't look at my profile too often. Thanks for the pointer, I've removed those entries. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 20:46, June 14, 2014 (UTC)

From User:Felldoh96
Thanks for your nice salutation.

Are you an admin or only a big fan of the pixarwiki ;)

Do you like my idea of Cars 3?

I hope my english is ok ;-)
 * Hello and welcome to the wiki! I am both an admin and a big fan of Pixar! I apologize, I don't get much time to read individual user's blog posts. I did glance at your idea for Cars 3, Lightning having a grown-up son, that would definitely be a big surprise!! Thanks again! --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 16:07, June 30, 2014 (UTC)

Did I write something wrong on the Talkpage of 'Fast as Lightning'?
 * The talk pages are meant for discussions of the related character/film/actor page - for instance, to discuss what should or shouldn't go on that page. Your comment was an opinion. There's nothing wrong with expressing your opinion, but the talk page isn't the right mechanism for that. Rather, you can use your personal talk page or your personal blog page. That way you can have blog posts on any Pixar-related topic, others can comment and interact with you, and we keep the talk pages for official information. Hope that helps! Thanks! --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 17:04, July 7, 2014 (UTC)

Jeff sit down and strut up

Hi There Jeff
I am currently doing a research project for my class at school. I chose to do mine on Pixar! I am in the middle of creating a timeline of their film releases. After reading your informative blogs (which were a big help) I still need some assistance! I know in the 1997 annual report all 4 of pixars films were mentioned (4 out of the 5 to be produced under the co production agreement, namely toy story, bugs life, incredibles and monsters inc ), but I cant seem to find any information about when Cars first started cropping up on any publications. From the dvd I have John Lassetter says he started developing it in 1997. I just wondered if you knew when it was added to the production agreement, or if you could tell me on which annual report it first was mentioned!

Thanks in advance!

Ij36 (talk) 09:55, September 2, 2014 (UTC)
 * Hello! First, to be clear, Toy Story was not developed under the Co-Production Agreement. It was the 1st (of what was going to be 3) films under the original Feature Film Agreement that Disney and Pixar signed in 1991. After the success of Toy Story, Disney and Pixar re-negotiated a 5-film Co-Production Agreement. A Bug's Life, Monsters, Inc., Finding Nemo, The Incredibles and Cars were the 5 films developed under the Co-Production Agreement. Toy Story 2 was not one of the 5 films as it was a sequel and the agreement called for 5 new and original stories.
 * As for when did official discussion of Cars show up, the first I see of it was in the 1st quarter 2001 quarterly results (The official document is a Form 10-Q). That document states that "concept development" on Film Seven had begun in 2000. By the 1st quarter of 2002 10-Q it had the official title of Cars.
 * I tried to find an official press release announcing that Film Seven was under development but had no luck - it's hard finding articles that old!
 * I hope this information helps! I'm excited you're doing your research project on Pixar. Let me know how it goes! Good luck! --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 02:57, September 3, 2014 (UTC)

 * Thanks for asking! Since the Pixar Theory is a fan theory and not official, it would not be proper to have it in the regular wiki content. But, if you want to put it into your personal blog here on the wiki, that is acceptable. Thanks again. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 12:35, September 29, 2014 (UTC)

User: Durquin
Quick! Please block Durquin from this site, hopefully permanently. He is inserting false info and vulgar language into the article "Chalooby" and a couple others. He ignored the message I left him, so please block him now. Thanks.

Planes Giveaway
Hey, Dvcnut! I just posted a little blog here about the Planes giveaway we're holding over on Disney Wiki! Since the franchise is a spin-off of Pixar's Cars, we thought there might be some people in this community interested in entering! Do you mind putting something on the main page or in Community Messages just so people actually see the blog/giveaway? Let me know if that's cool and I can add a link in! Grace (profile)•(talk) 22:45, November 5, 2014 (UTC)
 * No, I don't mind. We could put it in the "what's new" column on the main page. Feel free to add it yourself or I can do it. Thanks. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 03:32, November 6, 2014 (UTC)

I'll add it in, thanks! Grace (profile)•(talk) 19:20, November 7, 2014 (UTC)

Mfacaas
Quick, please block Mfacaas permanently. He's vandalizing articles again. Thanks.

 * I have reverted his edits. I gave him a 2-hour block, mainly just to stop him from adding more pages to the categories. It seems to be the first time he has a "massive-category-adding frenzy", so I didn't think he was eligible for a permanent block? But of course we may do otherwise. It is not the first time he "breaks" the rules, after all. Gray Catbird (talk) 20:38, November 9, 2014 (UTC)
 * Actually, this was his 3rd block. The widespread edits he made today shows he is not attempting to change his behavior so I upgraded the block to permanent. Thanks for making all the reverts. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 21:37, November 9, 2014 (UTC)

Randall Boggs and Henry J. Waternoose
There has been some dispute about Randall Boggs and Henry Waternoose in terms of which character was the main antagonist and which one was the secondary antagonist. There is this wiki site called PixarVillains which shows that Randall Boggs is the main antagonist and Henry Waternoose is the secondary antagonist. I'm not sure if you agree that PixarVillains wiki is a reliable enough source, but if it is, perhaps their actual antagonistic roles may be allowed on this PixarWiki site as well. Please check into PixarVillains wiki articles http://pixarvillains.wikia.com/wiki/Randall_Boggs and http://pixarvillains.wikia.com/wiki/Henry_J._Waternoose_II and please let me know if their analysis are accurate enough in terms of their antagonistic roles. If so, those two articles on PixarWiki should be updated.

 * I will answer here to keep everything at the same place.
 * First, as a general rule, I consider that a wiki never is a reliable source. Anyone can edit a wiki, and so when using it as a source, what is significant is what sources the wiki gives to back its statements.
 * In the particular case of -gonists level, I believe there is no true answer as to what is the -gonist level of any character in Pixar films. I doubt filmmakers think about whether this character is a quinquagonist or a two-thirds-of-a-dodecagonist/randomgonist. This is not Greek tragedy, there's no convention to follow.
 * So I think it's a subjective decision. One wiki may decide one way, another is free to decide otherwise.
 * On this wiki, what we had of discussion on Category talk:Primary Villains (and elsewhere?) gave the current consensus that both Waternoose and Randall are antagonists of similar rank. However, another wiki is free to decide otherwise.
 * Also, regarding Pixar Villains Wiki, it seems to merely be a wiki Aadit.arora created in order to freely express all his -gonists changes after he was blocked here. Note their Waternoose article appears to be overall a carbon copy of Pixar/Disney/Monsters, Inc. Wiki (hard to know which since cross-copying between the three has unfortunately occured). So I wouldn't consider it more reliable than another on this matter.Gray Catbird (talk) http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/pixar/images/thumb/1/11/Gray_catbird_cars.png/25px-Gray_catbird_cars.jpg 17:58, November 23, 2014 (UTC)
 * Gray Catbird, that was a beyond awesome response - intelligent, concise and accurate. Thank you for writing that. I don't think there's anything I could add to it! --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 20:33, November 23, 2014 (UTC)

Candidate for deletion
Fumihol/Fumahol. The article is not needed. Please delete. Thanks.

GrayWolf2 (talk) 16:59, November 30, 2014 (UTC)GrayWolf2
 * OK, I deleted both pages, thanks. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 00:27, December 1, 2014 (UTC)

New Categories
Meme99 created a few new categories: "Toyline", "Buzz Lighyear of Star Command Toyline", and "Woody's Roundup Toyline". If these categories are unacceptable or not needed, then please revert the character articles containing these categories and then deleted said categories. Please also inform Meme99 about creating new categories on this site. Thanks.

GrayWolf2 (talk) 23:13, December 4, 2014 (UTC)GrayWolf2
 * I've reverted the changes and deleted the categories. Thanks. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 23:34, December 4, 2014 (UTC)

Unneeded Images
Could you please kindly delete the Pumbaa image and duplicate image of Lightning disguised as Stanley. The former image is NOT Pixar-related at all, and the latter image already exists. I'd appreciate it. Thanks.

RebeccaTaylor1972
Please block RebeccaTaylor 1972. She is vandalizing the Billy Oilchange article, she recreated that Pumbaa image, which has nothing to to with Pixar, and now she's blaming me for reverting her edits on the Billy Oilchanger article, which I had nothing to do about because RaptorWiki was the one who reverted them, and she even threatened to block me for 9 months. She is the one who needs to be blocked, so please do so if you kindly would. Thanks.

Vandalism
Wiki user Cbbazinga12 is vandalizing articles again. He just vandalized the "Buster" article and many others in the past. Please permanently block him because I tried leaving him a message about it and he ignored it. He's an unruly wiki user who shouldn't be on this wiki site at all. Kindly block him for good. Thanks.

Message from Wikia
Jeff, did you see the latest message on my talk page? Any issues with you on that? Thanks! - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 12:16, February 26, 2015 (UTC)
 * Yes, I did see it. I remember when we moved away from having wiki in the path, I think it's a much cleaner look. But no, I don't have a problem putting it back in as long as links without wiki still work. Thanks. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 16:19, February 26, 2015 (UTC)

Message from Shadowjonathan
Have you been sleeping under a rock for the last week? All of these posts are official! They dont have to be deleted!-shadowjonathan
 * Yes, we did see a number of them in the recent trailer but some like abstract thought you referenced unofficial sources. It's not clear yet what will actually show up in the film - things in trailers don't always show up in the film. We also don't create pages just to have more pages - when you write "not much is known", then there's no reason to have that page until we do know more. We want this site to be more about quality not quantity. I didn't remove Dream Productions because that looks to be a good part of the movie, and we should have locations for others like Imagination Land and Long Term Memory.
 * Also, I removed a number of un-needed categories. You asked RaptorWiki about it yesterday, he said we probably don't need any more categories and to ask one of the admins before creating any, then you went ahead anyways and created a number of them.
 * Another point, when you use a category like "Inside Out Locations", don't also use the "Inside Out" category, since "Inside Out Locations" is a sub-category of it.
 * Any other questions, let me know. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 18:07, March 14, 2015 (UTC)

Re: Zebra Mater
Please delete the "Zebra Mater" article if you kindly would. It is unofficial Pixar material.

Hercules (1996 film)
Please delete Hercules (1996 film) because it is NOT Pixar material at all. Thanks.

 * Still waiting for you to delete that unneeded wiki article. GrayWolf2 (talk) 14:09, May 9, 2015 (UTC)GrayWolf2
 * I have added the film's logo to Category:Candidates for deletion, but there are over 100 images in there; a mass purge is needed (there's a script to delete everything in that category). One problem with this wiki is that the delete tag doesn't take (or doesn't require) a date parameter, making it impossible to tell (without digging in page histories) when a page is overdue for deletion. (On the Beatles Wiki, date and reason are both required parameters). — RobertATfm (talk) 14:21, May 9, 2015 (UTC)
 * That doesn't matter, Robert. Said article can STILL be deleted by any administrator regardless. Someone has to delete it because I am NOT an administrator (though I would like to be promoted to admin if that were possible and was granted the privilege to become one).
 * OK, I have deleted the page. Thanks. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 15:58, May 9, 2015 (UTC)

Thanks for Pixar Animation Studios produced Hercules (1996 film).
