Images
Everytime I try to replace an image with a new one, it only changes the dimensions, but keeps the previous image, do you know why? Also, I'm trying to make a new character template on the sandbox page. -SlashMan 00:08, September 5, 2010 (UTC)
 * Not sure why that would happen. It could just be your browser - you could try doing a hard refresh - hold down the shift and then click the refresh button. Or you may need to clear your cache. I can also try something to see what happens. What page and image are you working on?
 * As for the template, what kind of issues are you running into? --Jeff (talk ) 00:46, September 5, 2010 (UTC)


 * Yeah, it didn't work. I tried uploading a new picture of Sid, but it's still stretched, and didn't even accept the new picture. Does it work for you?

Anyways, there's no problem with the new template, I'm just informing you because the page is locked. Here's what I did so far: Sandbox Pictures are smaller, because there have been complains about some being stretched, a page title has been added, and I've tried out a first/last appearance thing. Tell me what you think, and suggestions on categories to add as well. Thanks, SlashMan 01:19, September 5, 2010 (UTC)

Achievments
I've been going on the South Park Archives Wiki a bit lately and found that they have an achievments system. I thought that was pretty cool and was wondering if there was any chance of Pixar Wiki getting one soon?

SpaghettiCatfish 08:11, August 30, 2010 (UTC)
 * I'm not familiar with Achievements (in the wiki-sense). Can you tell me more about it? --Jeff (talk ) 23:50, August 30, 2010 (UTC)
 * Sorry. I found out that there actually called badges. You get them for completing things such as making a certain amount of edits or adding a picture to a page. A picture related to that will then show up on your user page.
 * OK, I'm familiar with badges. Yes, those would be cool. I'm not sure how we get them on the wiki but I can ask one of the more knowledgeable sysops about it. Great idea, thanks! --Jeff (talk ) 12:19, August 31, 2010 (UTC)

Why did you delete the Mario page? - WolfLink33 03:20, August 26, 2010 (UTC)

Red
Just curious at your summary of the page edit on Red's page. It said "Do Not update "appears" for cameos"

Rileyl 23:31, August 25, 2010 (UTC)
 * What I meant is that I don't think it's worth updating the "Appears" field (in the character template) when a character just makes a cameo in a film. For instance, Red may be the play fire truck seen in Toy Story 3. There is no official confirmation that it is him. And even if it was, since it's just a cameo and not the real Red from Cars, it shouldn't be listed in the Appears field. Along the same vein, we shouldn't add to its page. Rather, it should be mentioned in the trivia section. I hope that makes sense, let me know if you have any other questions. Thanks! --Jeff (talk ) 12:26, August 31, 2010 (UTC)

Toys Story 3 DVD Release Date
Is November 2 the American release date for Toy Story 3?

SpaghettiCatfish 09:14, August 24, 2010 (UTC)
 * Yes. --Jeff (talk ) 02:43, August 25, 2010 (UTC)

Character Template
I've been thinking, the character template looks a bit plain on some pages, especially those with one, non-speaking appearance. Any idea of things that could be added? I'm thinking of a title at the top of it, also dates for the movies would help a little. Also, do you agree that the appearances should be reserved for shorts and movies? -SlashMan 02:26, August 24, 2010 (UTC)
 * Hmmm, I think this will take some deliberation. Do you have some examples of pages that really stick out (in this case, I mean don't stick out and are plain :)? And that's a good question about the use of appearances. Are you thinking it shouldn't be used for TV specials, for instance? What about characters that only show up in a TV show?
 * If you have some ideas you'd like to try out, feel free to use the Sandbox to try them out and get feedback. --Jeff (talk ) 02:58, August 25, 2010 (UTC)

Untitled Toy Story Short
Hi, I was just wondering about the untitled Toy Story short that is supposed to be coming out with Cars 2. Are they going to have the Toy Story short with an original short or is it just going to be by itself?
 * I've seen no other information regarding the short film so can't really answer your questions. My guess is that the Toy Story short will be the only short attached to Cars 2. I don't know what you mean by "original short"? All Pixar short films are originals. Let me know if you still have questions! --Jeff (talk ) 17:27, August 23, 2010 (UTC)
 * Thanks SpaghettiCatfish 23:07, August 23, 2010 (UTC)

Toy Story (PEZ)
Hey Jeff. Ok, so the reason I put the delete tag on the Toy Story (PEZ) page was because after that, I put the exact same thing on the PEZ Candy, Inc. page. I put alot of work into the PEZ Candy, Inc. page. I'm trying to put all the rest of the Pixar Pez lines in that page, but it's hard to get the information. You know information such as: retired dispensers and dispensers that were in other Pez lines, etc. If that makes sense. So, do you understand now? And if you're wondering, yes I'm a Pez fan, a huge one. Respond. ---PixarFan 12:42, August 19, 2010 (UTC)
 * OK, that makes sense. I didn't see the PEZ Candy page. I'll delete the Toy Story PEZ page. Thanks!! --Jeff (talk ) 01:42, August 20, 2010 (UTC)

Fictional Companies Page
I've noticed that Pixar enjoys adding fictional companies in their films. Everyone knows the big ones like Buy n Large and Dinoco but I also enjoy finding the smaller ones like Virtual Realty and Eggman Movers. Is there any plans for a page to access all of them?
 * No, there are no plans, but that might be a good page to have. Another way would be just to make sure those external sites are on their associated film pages (i.e. Virtual Realty and Eggman Movies on Toy Story). I don't know how many of these sites there are, so am not sure if we need a dedicated page to them? Great question!! --Jeff (talk ) 12:23, August 19, 2010 (UTC)
 * How about make a category for them? Or would that be another useless category? Thoughts? - RaptorWiki 16:42, August 19, 2010 (UTC)
 * You could have a category but then must have pages that include that category. So if a film page includes the external link, you could include the new category on that page. I'm not sure I like that much since each film may only have 1 or 2 external links. Rather than that route, I'd probably create a page with all the external links, then use the related film culture categories on that page. But I'm open to suggestions. --Jeff (talk ) 01:46, August 20, 2010 (UTC)
 * Which external links are you referring to, for example? - RaptorWiki 09:22, August 20, 2010 (UTC)

Knick the Snowman in Cars?
I love looking for easter eggs in Pixar films. When I was looking at the Knick Knack and Cars pages, it says that Knick is in a snowglobe in Lizzie's shop. I've seen the snowglobe scene but it was the snowglobe from Knick Knack. Am I looking in the right place?
 * Yes. Knick is the snowman inside the globe. I don't remember if in Cars only the snow globe is in the scene, or if the globe has Knick inside it. But yes, that's the correct scene. Thanks! --Jeff (talk ) 11:09, August 18, 2010 (UTC)

Template:Delete
Hey Jeff, I'm not sure if you can do it, but if you could, can you edit the Template:Delete page so that it can't be edited anymore? People keep editing to say not spam, but useless content. I just reverted it to right, original version it's supposed to be when you edited it. Respond! ---PixarFan 11:16, August 17, 2010 (UTC)
 * I'll keep my eye on it. But actually, I liked the last change (before you reverted it) and put it back - it's a convenient way to add a reason for why the page should be deleted. I think it's a good idea that people provide some reason for deleting a page. Let me know what you think.
 * I also removed the delete tag on the Toy Story (PEZ) page. It's Toy Story merchandise, so why shouldn't it exist? I don't think we need individual pages for each PEZ but one page is fine. Thoughts? --Jeff (talk ) 03:47, August 18, 2010 (UTC)

Administrator
How do I become an administrator
 * Mister Lazer 16:42, August 16, 2010 (UTC)
 * You should talk to one of the sysop staff like User:Scarecroe or User:Toughpigs. A good start is to just start spending time on the wiki adding content, cleaning things up, etc. Thanks! --Jeff (talk ) 19:03, August 16, 2010 (UTC)

Deleted Categories
Hey Jeff, I was really wondering, do you know why Category:Bonnie's Toys and Category:Dogs were deleted? They were both good categories. I can probably understand "Bonnie's Toys" because everybody would know who Bonnie's Toys are. But the "Dogs" category, that was a really good one. It points out who, out of every Pixar movie, was a dog. I really think at least the "Dogs" category should be be brought back. ---PixarFan 10:01, August 13, 2010 (UTC)
 * I just don't see much reason for a category for Bonnie's toys, especially since many of Andy's toys went to her. As for the dogs category, wouldn't most people know which characters are dogs? And how will the category be used? Will people go to that category and then navigate to the character pages from it? It seems like it could lead to strange behavior, like needing an animals category, a fish category, a human category (and why not boys and girls categories), etc. But, this isn't my wiki. If there is good reason for a dogs category and other people like it, then we should have it. You can re-create the category and get others feedback and see what happens. --Jeff (talk ) 20:42, August 13, 2010 (UTC)
 * I agree that both of those categories are definitely not needed. If a dogs category exists, why not cats? Or dinosaurs? Or Birds? There's really no reason for any of those. - RaptorWiki 13:24, August 14, 2010 (UTC)

Monsters, Inc. 2 release date and Voice Actors
Hey Jeff where did you get that information that Monsters, Inc. 2 has been moved forward to November 2, 2012? Also there's no proof that John Ratzenberger will be in Monsters, Inc. 2 but John is in every single Pixar film so shouldn't we have just him in the "Voice Cast" section saying he'll be playing the Yeti or a new character?
 * The release date info came from a number of different Pixar blogs, which in turn came from Box Office Mojo. I think I'll update the MI2 page with this reference.
 * As for the voice cast, there's been no confirmation of anyone returning. It would seem obvious that certain characters like Mike and Sully will return, and also having John somewhere in the movie. But until it's official I don't think we should mention it. It will just lead to the issues we had prior to Toy Story 3 being released with constant additions and removals happening in the voice cast. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 12:16, August 5, 2010 (UTC)

Toy Story Collection
Do you have any plan on how to organize the Toy Story Collection? I think it's notable enough for one article, but having 14 individual pages with a picture and paragraph for each just doesn't look right to me. I personally like the way the Cars Die-Cast Line was organized.SlashMan 21:15, July 20, 2010 (UTC)
 * No, I don't have any plans for it. I'm open to suggestions! You might be right, I'm not sure if each character needs its own page. But I don't understand your comment about the Cars Die-Cast Line - each of those characters have their own page? And many of them only have a paragraph or so. Or, another idea is to add a sub-section to the "real" character page (i.e. Woody for Woody the Sheriff (Toy Story Collection)), then have Toy Story Collection be a list of all the characters, plus maybe a link to each image. This is similar to how the Cars Die-Cast line is done. What do you think? --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 02:33, July 21, 2010 (UTC)
 * Oh, maybe I just read into it wrong, but I think there should just be a single entree for each toy, seperated by the waves they were released in.-SlashMan 03:28, July 21, 2010 (UTC)

 * I noticed a lot of pages in Category:Candidates for deletion. Also FlowerLover9099 and Kinkyman look like sockpuppets of Anthony9, Angrywolf99, Diamondboy, Shorthair, Coolman099, Anthonythecameraguy, and Tonyspaphoney. Many of these accounts are also on Wikipedia, or something simliar, like instead of Anthony9 there's AnthonyA99. All tagged as socks of the banned Onelifefreak2007. So I think he should be banned here too. Toy story fan 01:20, July 13, 2010 (UTC)

Why I want to Delete User:GonzoFan
The reason why I want to delete the User:GonzoFan is because that was my old account name. I didn't like how the name looked on this wiki. The name Gonzo is from the Muppets and I used to go on Muppet Wiki alot but I don't go on as much. I'm being completely honest. I can prove it too. If you want me to I can log onto GonzoFan right now and tell you it's me. Just tell me and I'll do it. Again, I'm being completely honest. ---PixarFan 12:19, July 8, 2010 (UTC)PixarFan

Text Revision in Toy Story 2/ Emporor Zurg summary....
Hello,

I left the "Field of Dreams" reference in the above wiki page and would like to request that the blue font color be used to highlight and/or possibly link to other references for the following words: Kevin Costner, Ray Kinsella, Field of Dreams.

Thank you in advance,

Sid Phillips 06:06, July 7, 2010 (UTC)Sid Phillips
 * Note, the blue highlight are for links. To create a Wiki link put and  around the word(s) you want to be the new page. For instance, to create a link for Toy Story it would look like Toy Story in the editor and Toy Story on the actual page. You can find help on links and editing in the left column while editing a page. You can also try editing on the Sandbox page.
 * But as for the terms you're asking about (Field of Dreams, Ray Kinsella) I would NOT make those into wiki links. They have nothing to do with Pixar or any of their films so wouldn't have their own pages. They are just observations. In fact, some people might consider that information to not be appropriate for this wiki, as we try to only record official information, so you may see it disappear at some point. This kind of information might be better suited for your Blog or talk page.
 * Thanks for participating here, and let me know if you have any other questions! --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 01:54, July 8, 2010 (UTC)

Should you or i move Pizza Planet truck to "Pizza Planet Delivery Shuttle"?, because that's what it says on the sides of it.

Robertbobbobby 00:19, June 14, 2010 (UTC)

You could create a redirect page for Pizza Planet Delivery Shuttle to Pizza Planet truck. Thanks! --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 02:04, June 14, 2010 (UTC)
 * Sure. If you look on the doors of the Toy Story ones, it says Shuttle.

Toy Story 3 Presskit
Hey Dvcnut, could you send me that TS3 presskit by email?My email is samaradams@live.com.

Tin Toy characters
The toys that Tinny meets in Tin Toy should probably be covered. In a new preview for Toy Story 3 (no spoilers), it shows that Billy's toys were donated here (minus Tinny), and hide together like they did before to avoid the toddlers. Should I given them all one page as 'Billy's toys,' or something like that? They all do have names (from Tin Toy credits), but the biography would be identical otherwise.

I think I'm also gonna leave this Wiki for now unless a spoiler system is formulated. -SlashMan 02:07, June 5, 2010 (UTC)
 * Yea, I think one page for all of them would be sufficient. You're right, since their descriptions would all be similar there's no reason for separate pages.
 * It's been hard keeping all the TS3 spoilers out. If it's not the Toy Story 3 page, then something sneaks up in one of the character pages. For a long time I had to quit looking at the TS3 page because I didn't want to get spoiled. I've also been busy and haven't been able to spend much time here. Fortunately we're only a couple weeks away from the release! If you do leave, make sure you come back, you do a great job! --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 14:14, June 5, 2010 (UTC)

Other Toy Story shorts
Where should I put a section for other Toy Story shorts? Believe it or not, there's actually quite a bit that don't fit in the current series, like Buzz Lightyear of Star Command intros, trailers, and commercials (like the exclusive McDonald's commercial). -SlashMan 23:47, April 25, 2010 (UTC)
 * I don't have a good answer - I'm not familiar with these. Do you think each of these should have their own individual page? Are they all related to Buzz Lightyear of Star Command? If so, you could create a page (or pages) and use the Category:Buzz Lightyear of Star Command category for them? Or we could create a Toy Story Shorts category and relate the pages to that? --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 12:33, April 26, 2010 (UTC)
 * No, I'm talking about assorted Toy Story shorts in general. There's no connection between them, except for the fact that it's Toy Story. -SlashMan 21:13, April 26, 2010 (UTC)
 * Well, I still don't have a strong opinion yet. If you think there's enough material that we would have multiple pages (one per short?), then we could go that way and create a Toy Story Shorts category to organize them all. If there are just going to be a few pages then wouldn't need a new category, we could just use Category:Toy Story and Category:Shorts, or maybe Category:Toy Story Culture? Sorry I'm not being helpful, I can see a lot of options, just not sure on a solution! Maybe the way to start is with one or two pages and see how it goes. We can create categories later, if needed. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 01:04, April 27, 2010 (UTC)
 * Are these Toy Story shorts from all different media titles and types? - RaptorWiki 00:35, April 28, 2010 (UTC)
 * I think so. I think the McDonald's commercial that has unique footage, for example, is worthy of coverage, but I'm not sure it has enough substance for a whole page. Other things are the trailers that have footage that was never used, as well as the new Toy Story 3 shorts (which only serve as promotion). -SlashMan 02:03, April 30, 2010 (UTC)

 * If you ever want to expand on it, you could add the reason the scene was deleted - some scenes look like they'd be great so it's fun to hear their reasons. Thanks! --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 23:50, April 19, 2010 (UTC)

 * Yes, it should be fine if you add some pages on video games. Note, they should only contain factual information, right? Not opinions or impressions of the game. There already are a number of video game pages, feel free to add to them. Also remember, please don't just copy the information from a manufacturer's website.

 * OK, looks like you've got a good start. I renamed them to Cars Mater-National and Cars Race-O-Rama. You'll probably want to make the names into wiki links so people can link to the characters like Lightning McQueen and Mater. If you have any questions let me know. Thanks! --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 01:11, April 20, 2010 (UTC)

 * I went ahead and created wiki links for the characters on Cars Mater-National. When you edit that page you can see what I did to create the links. It's not too hard once you get use to the editor and the wiki markup language. Note that wiki links by convention start with a capital letter. Also notice when you're editing a page the left-hand column will give you some editing tips that show how to construct links, add headings, etc. You can also check out Help:Contents for more help information. One thing I still do is look at existing pages (via Edit) to see how someone created a page or made some interesting edits. Just make sure not to do a "Save page" - hit the Cancel link to get out of Edit.
 * Note, I also renamed Cars:race o rama to Cars Race-O-Rama. I deleted Cars:race o rama so please start using Cars Race-O-Rama. Thanks! --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 02:02, April 21, 2010 (UTC)

Welcome tool
Hi Jeff! It looks like the reason the welcome tool wasn't working here was because you accidentally blocked User:wikia. It should be all set now though. Sorry it took so long to figure out! —Scott ( talk ) 02:43, April 8, 2010 (UTC)

hi
hi lol don't block me

Block Angrywolf99?
Should user Angrywolf99 be blocked so that we can safely move the pages about the Toy Story characters, which that user has moved, back to what they used to be before his contribution? --Longliveaki 18:56, February 26, 2010 (UTC)
 * I'm getting close to it! I'm giving him a little more time to reply to my entries on his talk page. In the meantime don't try to fix his changes, it will be easier for me to just do a rollback. Thanks. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 18:59, February 26, 2010 (UTC)
 * OK, I'm hoping I've put everything back as it was. If you notice things I've missed and that you can't fix let me know. thanks! --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 20:24, February 26, 2010 (UTC)

Do you know what happened?
Hey Jeff, what happened to the website? The frames don't auto size to the screen anymore. Now it just stays narrow and centered on the screen. Did someone change something within the last day or so? It is becoming extremely annoying... - RaptorWiki 20:51, February 21, 2010 (UTC)
 * Yea, Scarecroe made some style sheet changes that I think caused it. I already left him a message about it. Hopefully it'll get fixed soon, it is a pain. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 21:44, February 21, 2010 (UTC)
 * OK, thanks! - RaptorWiki 22:47, February 21, 2010 (UTC)
 * I modified the style sheet and it looks like it's working as before. But I'm not a style sheet guru (heck, I'm not a style sheet novice :), so if you notice any other bad behavior let me know right away. Thanks! --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 18:59, February 22, 2010 (UTC)
 * Will do. Thanks! - RaptorWiki 19:22, February 22, 2010 (UTC)

Custom skin is live
Thanks for the feedback. The issue with the Edit tab on user pages was a piece of code from the old skin. Since you liked the skin I showed you, I just set it as the wiki's default skin (so you can delete User:Dvcnut/monaco.css), and the Edit tab problem is fixed. Let me know if you see anything else that looks wrong. Cheers. JoePlay ( talk ) 19:20, February 8, 2010 (UTC)

Koru34
Can you please ban this Koru34 guy? See what he did to the Cars page. I fixed it, so look at previous revision. Thanks. - RaptorWiki 18:57, February 3, 2010 (UTC)

You're welcome. I had to put more details to make the page more interesting. - Ianmhaiki

I just want to say that the gig bird in for the birds looks similar to kevin from UP. don't you agree?

Custom skin
Hi Jeff. We at Wikia want to give the Pixar Wiki a custom skin help it stand out a bit from other wikis. Since the color blue seems to work well here, I was thinking that this skin template I recently designed would look good. What do you think? If you'd like to take it for a test drive, copy the code below and paste it to User:Dvcnut/monaco.css:

@import "http://pixar.wikia.com/index.php?title=User:JoePlay/monaco.css&action=raw&templates=expand&usemsgcache=yes&ctype=text/css&smaxage=18000";

NOTE: You'll need to hard refresh (Ctrl+F5) after you save in order to see it. When you get a chance, please leave a message on my talk page with your thoughts. Thanks. JoePlay ( talk ) 20:15, January 19, 2010 (UTC)


 * If using that @import code didn't work (that method may not work anymore), you can just copy/paste all the code from my personal css page to yours. I guarantee that will work. Please reply after you've decided one way or the other so that I can mark Pixar as "accepted" or "declined" on my list of wikis to visit. JoePlay ( talk ) 00:58, February 6, 2010 (UTC)

Cars Trivia: Wheres Wall-E?
Well Jeff I don't really know whats the mark in the movie, cause I don't know where it is,but where Wall-E could be seen in Cars is somewhere in the beginning, when Lightning McQueen goes to the pit stop, to go get gas. Right when Lightning McQueen stops you can see him rolling by, it not to quick and can be spotted easily, but obviously Cars was made before Wall-E so people just thought it was a pit crew car rolling by.-Sarge501090(talk)

A Few Things
A few things, especially since this is a "spotlight" wiki. First, you are not a Wikia Helper. I would recommend removing that from your page. I don't know what Wikia does when you are impersonating someone who works for them, but I wouldn't think that they would take it too well. Second, you block users with no expiry for nothing, and don't give them a chance at redemption. With this Wikia Helper issue, if it is not resolved very soon, I will be going to Wikia about it. The second thing is more just a heads up. Have a good day, User:Ajraddatz@WikiMarkupWiki
 * Ah, well, there is a link to the dif above, and I can give it to you again :) Ajraddatz

Hi, just a follow up to this -- you might not have been aware that "Wikia Helper" is a name given to a group of user rights. We'd appreciate it if you chose another word to describe your role here as I'm sure you don't want to confuse your users. :) Blocking troublesome users is a judgment call admins must make, but please remember to assume good faith and give people polite warnings and a chance to change their ways before blocking indefinitely. Thank you! — Catherine (talk) 17:59, November 15, 2009 (UTC)
 * Actually, I would like to apologize for the relative harshness of my first message. I am sure that there is some way that I could have made it a little bit nicer. Glad that this situation is worked out. Ajraddatz

Videos. Where are they?
Why did you edit out the videos on my page? I liked those videos! >:( --Teridax Prime 01:01, October 27, 2009 (UTC)

Oh. Sorry. Teridax Prime 23:12, October 27, 2009 (UTC)

taking out /wiki from URLs
Hey Jeff, I just wanted you to know about something new that's happening this week. We're testing out a way to improve the way that Google indexes our pages. What this entails is removing the /wiki/ from the URL for every page. So, pixar.wikia.com/wiki/Toy_Story would become pixar.wikia.com/Toy_Story instead. We're looking to test it on a few wikis, including Pixar, starting tomorrow. It won't interrupt anything on the wiki, and the old URLs will automatically redirect of course. Once the switch has been flipped, we'll be recording data for a couple of weeks to see how this affects our traffic, Google rank and other interesting stuff. If you've got any questions, feel free to let me know. Thanks! —Scott ( talk ) 23:52, October 12, 2009 (UTC)

thanks for welcome
Jeff, I'm not sure I'm doing this right -- this is all new to me.

I wanted the user name davidmdelaney but wikia insists on capitalizing the first letter, which I really don't like. I like DavidMDelaney a little better, so I opened a new account, not knowing how to delete my first one. Can I delete my own previous account?

Are user pages particular to the wiki? If so I probably don't need any user page at all for the Pixar wiki. I don't really even know how I got one. Some accident while I was thrashing around yesterday in my first wiki experience.

If user pages are particular to the wiki, which it seems they are, please free to delete both Davidmdelaney and DavidMDelaney from the Pixar wiki, along with anything else I did there. My interest is in the SOlar Cooking Wiki. I am unlikely to be active in the Pixar wiki. DavidMDelaney 15:52, 19 February 2009 (UTC)

Jeff, thanks for the welcome. I was thrashing around a bit yesterday in my first wiki experience. I will be contributing mainly to the SOlar Cooking Archive wiki for the time being. DavidMDelaney 14:50, 19 February 2009 (UTC)

Reply-Up
Ahh, I see. That's kinda irritating, but at least you did what you can. I really want a copy of that book, it looks fantastic, and I really want some Up swag, most importantly the Grape Soda Badge Disney pin, but it's LE300 and currently about $250 on ebay, bah. I'd love to get my hands on the new vinyl figures coming out later this year, probably gonna get those, and some artwork would be nice, but wayyyyy too pricey. I also want to just go ballistic in a Disney store with all the stuff.

I've been checking the mail EVERY DAY for a reply, nothing so far, but it's just now been a week. No harm in checking though, I'm so flipping anxious! I'm happy to help out, Up's a fantastic film, and I can't wait to watch it obsessively on DVD/Blu-Ray. :P

Howdy - Up fix
Hey, glad to help out here!

I kinda noticed something when I was going back over the plot section for Up, cleaning up stuff. The box at the top with the movie info, it says that Bob Peterson wrote the movie. This isn't true. Pete Docter both wrote and directed it, and Bob Peterson co-wrote and co-directed it. Just thought I'd point it out!

AIR HEAD
HEY YOU!!! that stuff is NOT for a childs eyes!!! please remove.

edit by didowe : how is it not its pixer PIXER I TELL YOU PIXER its just spoilers whats so bad about SPOILERS

Pixar is the best !!!
I just want to congratulates u guys for making the most amazing movies ever !!!!

You have lots of brazilians fans !!!! I wuold like to know if you have like any offices here in Brazil so I could do some internship in ???

Thanks
thnx, dude. U R A lifesaver.--WildMIKE123v3 01:47, 17 January 2009 (UTC)

DMAN
hey jeff i want to delete nick knack because it shows and talks about naked women and alot of kids come on here plus i got rid on the recall because parents should tell there kids about that so just telling you

Re: Welcome
Hey Jeff thanks for the welcome. And nice wiki - 500 articles, eh? How long has this wiki been around? Hmmm, my user page doesn't seem to be working your right, I'll look into it.

Thanks,

WHLfan (talk to me!) 05:00, 4 September 2008 (UTC)


 * Yeah, you'll probably see me around, but for the most part I'm busy on The Hardy Boys Wiki. September hey? Well the wiki's grown fast in one year. I'm hoping for 500 articles by the end of year one (which is Feb), as well.


 * Keep up the good work,

Wikia skin
Hey Jeff :) Sorry I haven't been around in a while. There's lots going on and I regret that I haven't had much time to spend with Pixar. I think you've been doing a great job here, and it's exciting to see all the new people! You may have noticed by now that the skin has changed a little bit and there's some new ad space on article pages. I'm working on a few ideas as to how we can get the pictures and infoboxes to stop getting pushed down under the ads. There are some tests we've been running on Muppet Wiki to make these work better, so when we've got it perfected, I'll show you you what we can up with and we can try to implement them here. Looking forward to Wall-E next week! —Scott ( talk ) 17:27, 19 June 2008 (UTC)

Credits
Hi, Jeff! I hadn't checked this Wiki in ages, so sorry for missing your message but send me an e-mail. I can send you the presskits or credits only, whichever I have, as attachments (many presskits in general were lost when my PC was stolen in January 2007, and for a time Disney included the presskit as three seperate documents, "Production Notes," "Credits," and "About the Cast Crew," but now usually puts it all into one document, with pictures). I just downloaded the Wall*E one myself and am doing some quick partial clean-up on the credits page before bedtime. -- <font color="Blue">Andrew Leal (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 07:43, 16 June 2008 (UTC)

Pixar Wiki
Hi there Jeff! I really like the work you've been doing here on the wiki, and I'm glad to see you back. With the new movie coming up soon, we're looking at ways to bring some new folks in here to contribute and write about their favorite Pixar characters and whatever else tickles them at the moment. You seem to have a good knack for wikis, would you be interested in sticking around here more and becoming more involved? Drop me a note on my talk page, or you can email me if you prefer. Hope to talk to you soon! —Scott ( talk ) 03:24, 31 March 2008 (UTC)


 * Hey Jeff. I just made you a sysop/admin here, so you should be seeing some new controls. Reverting vandalism is easier now that you have the rollback feature. It shows up when you'r elooking at the difference between article revisions, and user contributions. You can also block vandals by clickingon the block link. What I usually do so that the redlinks associated with their usernames and talk pages don't show up in Recent Changes, is place on both of those pages. That adds a link to show their user contributions. —Scott ( talk ) 18:51, 4 April 2008 (UTC)


 * Yeah, they recently took "infinite" out of the drop-down box, but you can do just like you said: select Other and type in infinite. As for reason, I usually just type "vandal" or whatever's appropriate. Great, you're taking your first steps into a larger world! —Scott ( talk ) 23:26, 4 April 2008 (UTC)

re: Composers
Hi! I'm really glad you started pages for the composers. They're such a crucial part of the Pixar team. Don't worry about the style for new pages so much. Part of the wiki process is that an article is always a work in progress. So if you forgot something, someone's always behind you to come in and add more. And that's how you learn all the neat tricks :·) As for using the pipe | in the category code, it tells the software to categorize the article by whatever comes after the pipe so that Michael Giacchino gets alphebtized under G instead of M. There's all kinds of neat tricks, so don't hesitate to ask if something looks befuddling! —Scott ( talk ) 04:05, 15 February 2008 (UTC)

re: Talk:Colette
Hi Jeff! When you're editing a page, there's a link to insert the character template below the Save Page button. If you click it while the cursor is in the edit field, you just have to fill in the blank fields. I get most of my images from DVD screenshots using PowerDVD for Windows. —Scott ( talk ) 02:30, 13 February 2008 (UTC)

Welcome
Hi, Jeff -- welcome to the wiki! I'm glad you found it, and you're interested in getting involved.

If you're looking for wiki help, check out the FAQ -- that's a good place to start.

I'd be happy to help you get acclimated... Please leave a message on my talk page if I can help with anything! -- <font color="Blue">Danny (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 04:37, 11 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Thanks Danny! The only wiki I've worked on was built on MoinMoin. The markup looks similar but I want to look around more before I do much editing.— Jeff ( talk ) 04:55, 11 February 2008 (UTC)


 * I've never used MoinMoin, but it looks like you've got it so far. Your additions to Ratatouille Awards look great. -- <font color="Blue">Danny (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 06:19, 11 February 2008 (UTC)

I like to say your welcome I had to type all the info I had about pixar like the release date of CARS 2, Scrapped Monster`s Inc 2 , & the death of Paul Newman also I help many other wikias like Sonic News Network , TDI Wikia & I`m happy to help

Hi
Hi there! I'm just asking if there's other sysops in here. Other than Wikia Staff?

TYP-E
Its on the Special Edition of Wall-E in Special Features, it shows this bot and says TYP-E, even on wikipedia it says TYP-E.

heres the recording of the video on youtube:

id also like to know where yall got COM-T from. SPARTANF-259 02:55, 22 December 2008 (UTC)

Ok
ok, well i guess maybe they changed some of the names of the bots when the movie was released. SPARTANF-259 03:23, 22 December 2008 (UTC)

PR#16896
Hi. Can you be a little bit more specific in what you mean by this? Which history are you talking about? The history of the main page i can see going back to 04:37, 25 September 2006

Also, since the problem report system is normally meant for users to report issues to admins, if you as an admin are trying to get help from Wikia, please remember to mark it as "Need staff help" so that we will see it from the list faster.

--Uberfuzzy 05:15, 31 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Hmm, did you perhaps have the days set on 3? you can set the number of changes AND the number the days separately. That would make it show upto dec 27 --Uberfuzzy 05:41, 31 December 2008 (UTC)

Repeated Article
Hello Dvcnut, I just discovered an article that has two different articles on Pixar Wiki. The article LT for the character L-T from WALL-E is a repeat of the original article which is L-T. Do you think you could delete LT please? We don't need it if it is a repeat of L-T. Thanks. Lightning Storm McQueen (Cars Fanatic) 12:20, 5 January 2009 (UTC)

Mini or Minny
Hello, Please see the talk page for "Minny". - RaptorWiki 11:35, 27 February 2009 (UTC)

Monsters, Inc. 2
No. This is not a rumor, I just put the Rumors part of the page to say that there were many rumors floating around that have not been confirmed, but there is going to be a Monsters, Inc. 2 in 2013. That much I know.Pizzahut101 02:29, 28 February 2009 (UTC)


 * OK. I don't know the official source. My Dad just saw it on the internet. If you want to you can delete the page for now, but I'm pretty sure they're going to do one.Pizzahut101 19:51, 28 February 2009 (UTC)

Redirects to Cars Die-Cast Line
I did that for the cars that aren't plain characters. For example Mater and Lightning McQueen are plain characters but, Spinout McQueen and Blowing Bubbles Mater aren't plain characters. Get it? CarsFanatic321 12:52, 10 April 2009 (UTC)

Just an idea
Hi! I just wanted to know if this would be a good idea or not. I think it would be cool if we included a "List of Foreign Names" to each of the Major Film pages, especially since some of the movies have entirely different names in other countries -- for instance, Ratatouille was called "Remy's Delicious Restaurant" in Japan. I just think it would be neat, 'cause it'd help foreign wiki-goers too. Peori 01:15, 1 August 2009 (UTC)

User blogs
I'm a bit confused about the functioning/point of use for user blogs. (Sorry, I couldn't find any Help information on it, I wouldn't bother you if I did...) Peori 00:52, 4 August 2009 (UTC)

A merge
Can I ask that the Charles Muntz page be merged with Charles F. Muntz? There is more writing and detail on the Charles F. Muntz page. Peori 18:39, 28 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I don't know either. Chances are it's like James P. Sullivan where the middle initial doesn't even stand for anything. Peori 16:19, 29 August 2009 (UTC)

Early character pages
I was wondering if it'd be okay if we made pages for characters in the upcoming films that we at least know a little about, like Newt from the titular 2012 film, for instance. And then we can build it up with new details as we learn more, etc. Peori 05:48, November 5, 2009 (UTC)

Dont worry, im used to wikia anyway, but thanks.--123pop99 15:49, November 7, 2009 (UTC)
