Permanently blocking AngryWolf
User:SitcomLover was an AngryWolf sock puppet. Even though we're blocking him, he seems able to find a way to get a new login. Can we block his IP address (or IP address block) to permanently block him? --Jeff (talk ) 01:52, January 2, 2011 (UTC)
 * His intentions seem to be good, but he just won't listen, or even acknowledge anyone's comments on his actions. But he does keep abusing multiple accounts as well. I think we should keep using longer and longer IP address block times, and threaten to keep lengthening the blocks each time, until we are forced to permanently block his IP address block. - RaptorWiki 16:59, January 3, 2011 (UTC)
 * Agreed. Thanks. --Jeff (talk ) 17:38, January 3, 2011 (UTC)
 * I could be wrong, but I have a suspicion that hes user spongebob321, who just joined pixar wikia. Endrizzi427 01:55, January 23, 2011 (UTC)

Why delete the needed "Reformed" category????
Why do you keep deleting the "Reformed" category? It's needed! Please don't delete it anymore! Please don't, I'm begging you! -- Anthonyangrywolf (Talk), 4:22, December 07, 2010
 * See the talk page on this category. We have also deleted the category Redeemed Villains before as well.  It is not needed.  This information can be found in each character's page.  These categories will be deleted if they are created again.  Thanks. - RaptorWiki 00:23, December 8, 2010 (UTC)

Talk: Cars Toons Trivia
Hey RaptorWiki, could you please check out this talk page and write your opinion? Thanks! ---PixarFan 04:13, November 28, 2010 (UTC)
 * Sorry, for some reason I was never notified of receiving a couple of these latest messages in November. I gave my opinion now! I'd mark it for deletion. - RaptorWiki 00:31, December 8, 2010 (UTC)

Toy Story Trilogy
Hi. Should we have an article on the whole Toy Story Trilogy as a whole? This would make more sense instead of placing information about the whole franchise in the Toy Story article? Thanks Effluvium 10:53, November 14, 2010 (UTC)
 * Hi! For some reason I did not receive notification of this message. Sorry!  I only see information regarding the first movie on the Toy Story article.  I see the mention of sequels, but no detailed information.  So I'm not sure what you are getting at... - RaptorWiki 00:28, December 8, 2010 (UTC)
 * Well, all I'm saying is - A page should exist about the whole Toy Story trilogy (and franchise) rather then having separate information on each film. Wikipedia has an article about the franchise as a whole, aswell as articles on the individual films. What do you think? If not, no worries, it was just an idea I had a while back. Effluvium 18:40, December 8, 2010 (UTC)
 * I don't know if it is really necessary to have a page on the franchise as a whole, when that information already exists on each movie page. We need to see what others think.  Perhaps ask the question on the Toy Story talk page.  - RaptorWiki 18:59, December 8, 2010 (UTC)
 * Sure, OK. Effluvium 19:19, December 8, 2010 (UTC)

Heavy Metal Mater
Hey RaptorWiki, can you get a shot of Mater from the Cars Toon Heavy Metal Mater please? That picture that's already there is from a book and I was only planning to have it there until someone got a real shot of him. So ca you please? ---PixarFan 03:09, October 9, 2010 (UTC)
 * Yes, I just didn't get that far last night. I was very tired, so I quit. I'll get to it and a few other shots later today I hope. - RaptorWiki 12:07, October 9, 2010 (UTC)
 * Got some more up! - RaptorWiki 12:57, October 9, 2010 (UTC)

Awesome! Thanks, I really appreciate it! Should we just delete the old one from the book because it won't be used anymore? ---PixarFan 17:15, October 9, 2010 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I guess we could. - RaptorWiki 19:03, October 9, 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for all your help! But I have just one more question. Doesn't this picture to the right look fake? It was on the Moon Mater page. I'm pretty sure it it's fake, so I took it off. Can you delete it please? ---PixarFan 19:56, October 9, 2010 (UTC)
 * Looks fake to me... - RaptorWiki 12:54, October 10, 2010 (UTC)


 * I Watched The Episode. Oh and i have Eddie and Rocky... - Captainradious 4:31, October 15, 2011 (UTC)

Style Sheets
Hi, I'm not sure what you mean. What are you seeing? Can you post a screenshot of what looks wrong? —Scott ( talk ) 15:13, September 29, 2010 (UTC)
 * Before I go putting up a screenshot, try viewing the Pixar Wikia with Firefox. That is what I always use.  It is really, really messed up on Firefox as of today.  It was fine yesterday.  Tried multiple computers.  I just checked it on IE, and it is fine with that.  Let me know if you see the same thing on Firefox. - RaptorWiki 16:12, September 29, 2010 (UTC)
 * Actually, here's what the top of my talk page looks like in Firefox: screenshot - RaptorWiki 16:16, September 29, 2010 (UTC)
 * It looks okay to me in Firefox. Try clearing your cache/cookie/etc, logging out and logging back in. If it's still happening, let me know. —Scott ( talk ) 16:47, September 29, 2010 (UTC)
 * Scratch that, I only looked at the front page which looked okay. I clicked on an article and it looks borked. I'll see what's happening. —Scott ( talk ) 16:49, September 29, 2010 (UTC)
 * Thanks! - RaptorWiki 16:54, September 29, 2010 (UTC)
 * It looks like there was a cross-Wikia bug that they just fixed. I purged my browser and now it looks okay. Depending on where you are and the servers, it should be fixed for you shortly. —Scott ( talk ) 16:55, September 29, 2010 (UTC)
 * Yep, it just fixed for me too, just a few seconds ago. Thanks! - RaptorWiki 16:56, September 29, 2010 (UTC)

Seperate Pages
I think Dolly, Duckie, and Teddy should be separated, what do you think?

ZurgBot14 21:01, September 21, 2010 (UTC)
 * That type of discussion should be on the talk page for them. And actually, someone already said the same thing.  Take a look. - RaptorWiki 08:58, September 22, 2010 (UTC)

Can you delete a article?
Can you delete these articles named Purple Snake and Lennypo they need to be deleted!

ZurgBot14 15:30, September 6, 2010 (UTC)


 * They have been deleted. - RaptorWiki 09:13, September 7, 2010 (UTC)

Buzz Lightyear and Andy Davis
Give my at least one argument when you undo my contribution!!!!!!! Otherwise I will keep undoing !!! What could be the other reason, Andy was a big fan of Woody?!?!? And why Zurg reformed?!?!?!
 * Because Andy did not watch the TV show, it was from well before he was born. And even if he did, Woody would have seen it with him. He would not just have been seeing it for the first time with Jessie and Stinky Pete.  And the Buzz info was just plain incorrect. - RaptorWiki 09:10, September 7, 2010 (UTC)

Huh?
Getting really confused on who's putting this delete thing. The pages are fine. The ones I saw were Troll,Troikas,Jessie & Mater. I'm so sure that they're are more out there. Gameboyz829 12:12, August 26, 2010 (UTC)
 * WTF is going on with the Delete template getting inserted into a bunch of pages?! The problem seems to have originated with User:PixarFan marking template T for deletion. And template T is used by other templates like D (which is used by Q1). How did T get into so many things??? If you look at T and then What links here, it shows many pages and mentions transclusion. What is that?? --Jeff (talk ) 13:00, August 26, 2010 (UTC)
 * I rolled back the change on Template:T, so pages shouldn't be marked for deletion. Now looking at WTH T even is, and why it's used by Template:D. . . --Jeff (talk ) 13:02, August 26, 2010 (UTC)
 * I went ahead and deleted Template:T. Not sure why Template:D includes it, I'm guessing it's just a placeholder? And ignore my question about transclusion.
 * I noticed this problem this morning when I woke up before I came to work. Must have been the use of D by Q1? - RaptorWiki 16:27, August 26, 2010 (UTC)
 * Right. Not sure whey we have both D and Q1? And I'm not sure I understand how the D template even works. It looks like it includes template T, but it's working fine without having it. I never do anything with quotes so haven't spent time figuring them out. --Jeff (talk ) 17:00, August 26, 2010 (UTC)

I know, for some reason, once I marked Template:T for deletion, like every single page was marked for deletion. I didn't do it on purpose and confused how that all happened. Sorry about that. ---PixarFan 03:35, September 2, 2010 (UTC)

Jerry Recycled Batteries' name
Hey I was wondering, why did you change Jerry's name back to Jerry Recycled Batteries? That name sounds weird. I thought he was just referred to as Peterbilt, but then I found out his name was Jerry, so I changed it to Jerry the Peterbilt. It's very specific. And he is referred to as Peterbilt in the Cars Credits. ---PixarFan 06:58, August 21, 2010 (UTC)
 * Because that's what his toy shows his name as. Click here: Jerry Recycled Batteries - RaptorWiki 09:02, August 23, 2010 (UTC)

Oh ok then, that's really interesting. ---PixarFan 09:17, August 23, 2010 (UTC)

New Pixar Film
I know we shouldn't add rumours or speculation to the wiki, however, take a look at this: http://www.crystalair.com/story.php?id=200807006 I'm not sure if it's a trustworthy site, however, this news has been mentioned on Pixar Planet. What do you think? Im not sure, as I thought Brad Bird was working on 1906? Anyway, even if the film isn't going to get made, its a VERY interesting concept... 21:35, August 19, 2010 (UTC)
 * Actually, I think its a fake. Never mind. Sorry to bother you! Ooops :) 21:37, August 19, 2010 (UTC)

Wall-e picture
Hi, RaptorWiki! Im just curious on why you reverted the edit. I inserted that picture to make the Wall-e article uniform with the others. Most of the movie (and shorts) articles use the movie title in the infobox. Thanks :) 09:34, August 16, 2010 (UTC)
 * The others also have the better poster pictures below the info box. You didn't move that down, you removed it.  I'd put your photo back, but don't remove what someone else has already added, which could have just been moved below, as most of the other pages are...just move it down below. Thanks! :) - RaptorWiki 10:42, August 16, 2010 (UTC)
 * There, I went back and did that. - RaptorWiki 13:01, August 16, 2010 (UTC)
 * OK. Sorry about that! 13:49, August 16, 2010 (UTC)

Should I make...
Should I make the minor Sunnyside Characters? Like that hamburger and that elephant,etc. Not to have their own separate page but like the layout of the Billy's Toys page. Gameboyz829 14:54, August 12, 2010 (UTC)gameboyz829
 * I'd ask this in the Talk page for Sunnyside Daycare Center, so all feedback gets recorded there. I'll answer there when you do that. - RaptorWiki 16:42, August 12, 2010 (UTC)

I just did. --Gameboyz829 04:45, August 13, 2010 (UTC)

Pixar Fanon Wiki?
Can you make a Pixar Fanon Wiki? Its basically pretend. Like you get to make fake characters such as Jessie's cousin would be Nessie, Robot has a brother named Bot and so on. Also, you get to make your own stories with them. I already have some ideas for it. --Gameboyz829 19:16, August 11, 2010 (UTC)gameboyz829
 * Never heard of anything like that. And that's not what a Wiki is for...Do you have an example link to another one? - RaptorWiki 01:51, August 12, 2010 (UTC)

Here's an example of a fanon wiki. 

Can you Help Me On My New Wiki?
Please Help Me on My New wiki called--Toy Story 3 Video Game Wiki

(Please)Disney14ph12 18:06, August 11, 2010 (UTC) I Need Help!


 * I don't understand why that would be it's own Wiki. Besides, I don't have the game, sorry! - RaptorWiki 01:49, August 12, 2010 (UTC)

Can you edit the claw?
Can you edit my new article The Claw Disney14ph12 23:02, August 6, 2010 (UTC)
 * Yes, I can edit it...why? And The Claw is not a "character". - RaptorWiki 04:17, August 7, 2010 (UTC)
 * Oh, you wanted me to fix it. That is done, but I put some items in the discussion page for it. - RaptorWiki 04:24, August 7, 2010 (UTC)

Buzz's Home Planet
Hey just so you know Buzz is from the planet Morph. The only proof I can give you is proof that I can't show you right know but, it said it on a Cheez-It's box. A Toy Story themed one. I know that's not good proof but I'm not lying and I would not lie about Pixar. ---PixarFan 13:00, August 1, 2010 (UTC)
 * Well then add it. Whoever did it last did not have proper grammar, so I didn't trust their info either! :) - RaptorWiki 13:08, August 1, 2010 (UTC)

Re: Welcome

 * Thanks for your kind welcome, and as for the edit, it's no trouble at all, it's something I enjoy doing. --Dark Yugi 19:49, July 25, 2010 (UTC)

Toy Story Franchise Character Table
Hey, saw this page, I like it a lot. I didn't see that it was linked to anything so I added the TS character categories. Not sure that's the right thing to do, did you have an idea of how you were going to make it available? --Jeff (talk ) 03:51, July 24, 2010 (UTC)
 * I did not create it. I stumbled onto it when I was fixing all of the links to the now-gone Deluded Buzz page.  Probably what you did should be fine? - RaptorWiki 12:13, July 24, 2010 (UTC)

A safer wikia...Protect character names and cast/crew names from vandalism
There might be a probability that articles under character names and cast/crew names might be subject to vandalism. Do you think you might be able to protect them from being moved? --Longliveaki 20:51, July 14, 2010 (UTC)
 * I think there's a probability of anything becoming vandalized. But I can start going through and protecting other articles from being moved as well, if there's no real reason that they ever should be moved anyway. - RaptorWiki 20:56, July 14, 2010 (UTC)
 * Start with Talk:Toy Story 3 and Totoro as well as all the others the Spider's Web vandal moved, and protect the Spider's Web: A Pig's Tale pages from ever ever EVER being recreated, because we don't need (OR WANT!) them. Toy story fan 20:58, July 14, 2010 (UTC)
 * You can restore User talk:Dvcnut now. I'll make sure everything is restored. Toy story fan 21:14, July 14, 2010 (UTC)
 * I already did it a while ago, and got his history transferred. - RaptorWiki 21:16, July 14, 2010 (UTC)
 * OK but I think the last few that were deleted can be restored, for reference. Toy story fan 21:22, July 14, 2010 (UTC)
 * It's all right. Those top few items are irrelevant at this point.  Thanks. -RaptorWiki 21:25, July 14, 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for your help!
To whoever have protected the article Toy Story 3 from being moved to a different article name, I would like to thank you for doing that. As a suggestion, do you think all the other movie title articles (i.e. Monsters, Inc, Finding Nemo, WALLE, etc.) should also be protected from being moved to a different article name? --Longliveaki 20:21, July 14, 2010 (UTC)
 * Yes, that was me. And I was thinking of doing that too. But this guy keeps vandalizing everything now. We may have to block a range of IP addresses to stop this. - RaptorWiki 20:23, July 14, 2010 (UTC)
 * Actually it looks like all the other movie main pages have been protected in the past. It's the other pages that are being vandalized now. - RaptorWiki 20:26, July 14, 2010 (UTC)
 * I see User:VegaDark already blocked two ip ranges, but also User:Scarecroe blocked another one for good measure. Toy story fan 20:32, July 14, 2010 (UTC)
 * Can we help clean the whole wiki of pages to be deleted please? Toy story fan 20:46, July 14, 2010 (UTC)
 * I just did a few. - RaptorWiki 20:48, July 14, 2010 (UTC)
 * The more, the better. Also, I think we should lock Talk:Toy Story 3 from pages moves, and better yet, protect all "Spider's Web: A Pig's Tale" pages created here from recreation, and possibly other freaquently created and deleted vandalism pages. Toy story fan 20:49, July 14, 2010 (UTC)
 * That's the plan, yes. - RaptorWiki 20:59, July 14, 2010 (UTC)

Hello, I just checked all the pages of film titles that were released and saw that only Up was not protected from being moved. Could you do that too? --Longliveaki 02:30, July 15, 2010 (UTC)
 * Done. - RaptorWiki 08:52, July 15, 2010 (UTC)

Locking down Toy Story 3
There is a way to protect pages from being moved. It's a setting under the Protect button. I don't know exactly how to do it, have you done anything like it before? Since we continue to have problems with the TS3 page maybe we should do this. I could just ask Scarecroe how to do it but would like to try to figure it out on my own. Unfortunately I may not get to it until this weekend. If this is something you want to look into feel free! --Jeff (talk ) 16:41, July 14, 2010 (UTC)
 * OK, I blocked a "move" of the page under the "Protect" screen by anyone other than sysops for now. There's probably no reason to ever move it anyway, so that restriction may just stay in place for good. Good idea! I didn't know that was there. - RaptorWiki 16:49, July 14, 2010 (UTC)
 * Wow, that was fast! I guess I should've looked a little closer. I agree, I don't see any reason we'd ever move it. Thanks for taking care of this! --Jeff (talk ) 16:51, July 14, 2010 (UTC)
 * This is getting ridiculous. We're going to have to ID block a range of IPs.... - RaptorWiki 20:05, July 14, 2010 (UTC)
 * How do we determine the IP address and subnet for a user? --Jeff (talk ) 21:04, July 14, 2010 (UTC)
 * See VegaDark's page. I just asked him that as well.  He gave me an answer. - RaptorWiki 21:08, July 14, 2010 (UTC)
 * Jeff, can Scarecroe give us more rights? - RaptorWiki 21:14, July 14, 2010 (UTC)
 * From VegaDark's response, it looks like we need to be in the wikia staff group to be able to find/block by IP addresses? Oh well. Hopefully now that they've blocked this IP address range we'll be safe. Are you going to continue locking down pages? I would say definitely do it for the movie pages (and main Pixar page) but now that they've blocked by IP address range I think we should be OK. Thanks! --Jeff (talk ) 21:27, July 14, 2010 (UTC)
 * User:VegaDark already did that. Toy story fan 21:05, July 14, 2010 (UTC)

Anglerfish, etc.
Hello, RaptorWiki. I still prefer the anglerfish, the seagulls and the jellyfish as evil characters.
 * They are not being considered evil, because they are not doing anything out of the normal nature for those types of animals. - RaptorWiki 00:23, July 12, 2010 (UTC)

Toy Story Treats Problem
By accident, I did the Green Army Chant #1 on, but I did the same thing on Green Army Chant #2. How do you delete? Also, how do get that blue dotted box off? Its in the Green Army Chant #1.

- gameboyz829

If you mean the dotted box you had under Plot, I already got rid of that for ya. I would also just put them both in the same page to work around that problem. --Nick102 03:32, July 6, 2010 (UTC)

User_talk:Dvcnut and Toy Story Shorts
Hey, I've been having a discussion with User:SlashMan on some Toy Story shorts and it's sounding very familiar to a discussion I think you and I had a while ago - I think there was a short on the Cars DVD and i was questioning if we needed a separate page for it? Memory is going, I can't remember exactly our discussion but I'm feeling I'm being inconsistent. So thought you might be interested in joining the conversation on my talk page. If not, that's OK too! Later! --Jeff (talk ) 00:58, April 27, 2010 (UTC)
 * Are you referring to Boundin' Cars? -RaptorWiki 16:35, April 27, 2010 (UTC)
 * Yes, that's what it was. I must've been having a brain fart yesterday. Anyways, if it's OK to create pages for the Toy Story shorts SlashMan is talking about it should be OK to create a page for Boundin' Cars. Not sure why I was so against it before. . . --Jeff (talk ) 17:28, April 27, 2010 (UTC)
 * I'm not familiar with the ones he is talking about. I'd have check it out.  I'm not sure where to put things like that....They are shorts, but not the same type of shorts we're used to speaking about. - RaptorWiki 00:33, April 28, 2010 (UTC)
 * Right, maybe we need a new category of shorts. Or maybe something about bonus material, or DVD Shorts (Home Video Shorts), something along those lines? What about all the new Studio Stories on the TS/TS2 Blu-rays? Maybe for now we don't create any new categories, we can just relate them to the Toy Story category. Or, if they're all coming out on the DVDs or Blu-rays, we could use the home video categories. --Jeff (talk ) 02:34, April 28, 2010 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I do believe we need a new category, but not sure what. I don't know what all everything is from that Slashman is talking about.  It doesn't sound like it is all on DVDs, etc.  We need to know the sources for all of what he is speaking of I think, first. - RaptorWiki 10:22, April 28, 2010 (UTC)
 * Maybe we need an "Extras" Category for each movie, etc., to cover anything else that isn't a standard short? - RaptorWiki 10:58, April 30, 2010 (UTC)

Sysop
Hey, Scarecroe made you a sysop. Yea!!! Now you can delete pages and block users. Any questions, let me know. And don't let it go to your head! ;) --Jeff (talk ) 05:28, February 19, 2010 (UTC)
 * Great!! Now I won't have to bug you so much! ;)  I don't know why so many people come on here and vandalize pages....  Thanks for suggesting me! - RaptorWiki 19:54, February 19, 2010 (UTC)

Re: Koru34
I blocked him this morning. I missed Cars and a couple other pages that he modified because they didn't show up in the Recent Change log. That's weird. But I think we've reverted all of his changes. Thanks for helping! --Jeff (talk ) 19:01, February 3, 2010 (UTC)
 * Thanks, Jeff! I saw a few others in the list as well, but you got to them before I did! - RaptorWiki 11:12, February 4, 2010 (UTC)
 * And I just blocked Wallefixrepair5555. thanks! --Jeff (talk ) 13:43, February 4, 2010 (UTC)

Fixing all the moves
Grrr, I've spent the last 30+ minutes fixing all the changes. I'll next move the pages back to where they belong. I've asked that user a number of times if he needs help, or have tried to tell him he's breaking things but he's never written back to me so I've blocked him. I don't know if he doesn't realize he's deleting valuable content, or if he just doesn't care. I should have this all back shortly. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 16:47, November 15, 2009 (UTC)
 * OK, everything should be back to how it previously was. If you noticed I missed anything let me know. Thanks! --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 17:07, November 15, 2009 (UTC)
 * Nice job, Jeff. That was a mess.  Thanks for fixing that up! - RaptorWiki 18:13, November 16, 2009 (UTC)

Foreign Cars and Cars 2
This is off the topic so I decided to move it to your Talk page rather than the Die-Cast Line. It's funny you mention collecting cars from Cars 2, I was wondering how you felt about the new movie. Either like, 'cool! Dozens of new cars to collect and write about!', or 'oh no! Dozens of new cars to collect and write about!'. It can really keep one busy!

I think it's the right decision to leave the cars on the page. I hear you about wanting it to be complete. I can hardly believe what you've done with that page and how it's grown! But that's the point of a wiki; it can continue to grow and expand. I've finally gotten my hands on the full credits for Up, and also Toy Story and Toy Story 2. I've started working on updating the credits for these movies, unfortunately it takes a long time so it'll keep me busy for a while. Thanks again for all your effort! --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 23:01, October 14, 2009 (UTC)


 * Well I'd like to keep collecting, and I can't wait for the movie, but collecting this many just costs too much. Maybe I'll just get the ones that look the most interesting.  Sure, I'll say that, and when I start doing that I won't be able to stop, and I'll end up getting them all!  It's hard just keeping up with the Cars vehicles page with work and family and everything! - RaptorWiki 01:08, October 15, 2009 (UTC)

disambig pages
I'd be interested in your comments regarding Talk:Billy. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 00:05, 26 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Did you see my comment on Talk:Mike? I don't think they would be needed at all, as long as we do not make characters that are just their first name.  If they only have one name, we should put what movie, etc., that they appeared in in parentheses like we do for Sarge, Woody, etc.  Since we put parentheses after them, the disambig pages are not needed.  Doing a search for Sarge would still show both the Cars and Toy Story options if we got rid of the disambig pages.  But only if people made sure to not use one name for characters only.  That would be important.  - RaptorWiki 10:49, 26 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Yes I did. That makes sense too, although I don't think I'd proactively put the movie name behind the character name. For instance, Fillmore. I like being able to just enter Fillmore and go directly to his page. I also liked typing Sulley and going directly to his page (via the redirect to James P. Sullivan). These characters are major characters; I would expect that if someone added a new page that conflicts with Fillmore, they would realize this and do a move at that time.
 * In any case, we're basically agreeing that we don't need all of these disambig and redirect pages so I'll start removing them. Thanks. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 03:40, 27 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Well say you have a movie where a character only had the name "John." And then there's another movie where we get a character that has the name "John Smith."  We wouldn't want to have the user type in "John" and have it go to the first character's page, because that might not be what they were looking for.  Maybe they were looking for "John Smith."  They may have forgotten his last name.  And then if we get other characters with the first name "John", we wouldn't want the search for "John" to only go to that first character's page.  It needs to go to the search results where you can choose the right John.  Otherwise you may not find the John you are looking for.  In those cases, that first character named simply "John" would need something to distinguish itself from the others.  Hence the suggestion for putting the movie or work they appeared in in parentheses, or something similar.  I think typing in a name to go directly to a page is not as important as finding the right character, etc.  It could be annoying trying to find the correct one.  I don't see any problem if you wanted the character named only "John", you typed "John", and got the search results showing all Johns, then clicking on the one you want.  It only adds a couple seconds of time more, while still being user-friendly to anyone else not looking for that character named simply "John."  And since now that we do have the character's movies that they appeared in in parentheses, the disambiguation pages aren't needed, since the search results page will show all the options.  So basically, yes, we're agreeing we don't need the disambig pages :)  - RaptorWiki 10:58, 27 March 2009 (UTC)


 * Hey, please check out Talk:Mike (disambiguation). thanks! --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 23:09, 8 June 2009 (UTC)

Multiple references to same material
I made a change to the on Mater. Since all the refs refer to the same material this is cleaner than separate references. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 17:27, 18 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Oops, yeah I guess I did do that. Sorry about that.  I have a few more to fix then. :) - RaptorWiki 17:29, 18 March 2009 (UTC)
 * I wasn't sure if you knew how to do that. I noticed you had done it on a couple of pages so thought I should try to fix one asap to give you an example. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 17:52, 18 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I just wasn't thinking about what I was doing. I didn't realize I was doing that.  Thanks for pointing it out when you did though, before I did any more like that.  I know there's a few I need to fix.  I just have to find them.  Thanks! - RaptorWiki 22:05, 18 March 2009 (UTC)

Sysop
When I became a sysop, most of what I did was to welcome new users to the wiki and answer any questions they had. Also, to clean up after vandalism. Every once in a while someone will come in and make up a new movie coming out, add it to the main page, etc. And then just to keep an eye on things, cleaning up things, making pages more consistent, etc. Being a sysop also gave me some extra privileges like being able to delete pages, block users, etc. This is a fairly small wiki so it's not too busy. I like that kind of admin stuff, and I'm not that creative of a writer, so being a sysop is a great way for me to contribute. I'm a big Disney fan, but even a bigger Pixar fan and had wanted to somehow get involved with a Pixar site. I wasn't interested in blogging so when I stumbled on the wiki I thought it was perfect.

Thanks for all the great work you've been doing! It's awesome how the site is growing! --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 01:16, 11 March 2009 (UTC)


 * That definitely sounds more like me too. I can't stand when things are inconsistent, incomplete, incorrect, or has spelling or grammar errors, etc.  Thanks to you as well! - RaptorWiki 13:59, 11 March 2009 (UTC)

Disney-Pixar Cars Die-Cast Line

 * I saw that my info created originally at Wikipedia was also copied to this website. I had been noticing this for months, and saw that it only got updated occasionally, so I decided to register here and keep it updated regularly.  I also put my information back into the format it was in before, and added a lot that was missing.  I also got rid of a lot of other things left over from Wikipedia that shouldn't have been there to begin with (from other users). - RaptorWiki
 * iCollect Cars - I had worked really hard to create those tables in a less confusing and more organized format. I'd like it to be put back to the way it was as I worked for hours on it and the old version gave me a headache.  Plus, I was getting good feedback because of it.
 * Sorry, didn't even look to see that it was changed to tabular format before bringing over the most current data from the Wikipedia article (which is about to be deleted by the way, because they feel the subject isn't "notable" for Wikipedia and doesn't have enough reliable sources - and they are sadly correct). I just looked back at the tabular format and that appears to be the same format that wasn't really liked by the editors at Wikipedia.  The page looks very odd in that format.  Some sort of tabular format isn't a bad idea though.  Maybe we can experiment here with a few other tabular looks.  The way it is now is not at all confusing, but it is starting to make the page become long. - RaptorWiki 15:59, 30 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Probably the longer sections, such as Series 3, should be made into two columns (without a box around and no cells). Not sure how to do that with wiki markup. So the way it is may have to work. - RaptorWiki 17:06, 30 December 2008 (UTC)

Fantastic job!
Hey RaptorWiki. It's Lightning Storm McQueen from Cars The Toys and Wikipedia. I think you're doing a fantastic job with the Cars Die-Cast Line. It's a good thing we found Pixar Wiki. Keep doing a great job my friend! Lightning Storm McQueen (Cars Fanatic) 02:08, 5 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Hi again! Thanks!  I'm trying to get some good images up now.  I was given permission to use some.  Hopefully this site won't delete them for any reason! - RaptorWiki 02:38, 5 January 2009 (UTC)
 * You're welcome! I can't wait to see your images. Are they for the Cars Die-Cast Line? Lightning Storm McQueen (Cars Fanatic) 02:47, 5 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Yes, they are. Some are there, but most of them are links to images I uploaded to Pixar Wikia. The page would be too long if I put all images for everything right on the page! Most are in the WOC series right now :) - RaptorWiki 16:20, 5 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Hi, where do you get this images, because i might help out every so often.Sgtcook 20:48, 5 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Well, I was given permission to use them. The permission given to me doesn't extend to everyone else... I will have to add them. But if there's some picture you are looking to add, I can see if I can get it and put it up.  Just let me know.  But I do have a ways to go...there's a lot I still want to get up there.  It will just take a while. - RaptorWiki 22:59, 5 January 2009 (UTC)

hey dude, it's me lightningleakless from http://carsthetoys.yuku.com/ & wikipedia! thanks for telling me about this place, it doesn't have the jerks who delete nice pages, i got thanked my them for updating the diecast page! thanks dude, YOU ROCK!

Lightningleakless 05:10, 6 January 2009 (UTC)
 * No problem, and thanks :) - RaptorWiki 10:24, 6 January 2009 (UTC)

How?
So I just put ref with surrounding it in each page I did? Also, I have to go to bed so I'll fix them tomorrow, or you could fix them. Thanks. CarsFanatic321 00:40, 9 March 2009 (UTC)

Hey
I'm going to take a break, but since my name is CarsFanatic321, I'll be back in an hour or so. But for right now, I'm going to do some other stuff. I'm younger than you are probably, so I can't be on the computer all the time. CarsFanatic321 19:52, 9 March 2009 (UTC)

Yes
Yes I am putting them in a particular order. And by the way, you can do the quotes. What I'm doing is enough work. CarsFanatic321 20:50, 9 March 2009 (UTC)

The order
There's this website called carsdriveingallery.com, and I'm going in order. I'm already at the Third Party Characters. Also, could you make a picture for Dudley Spare? I would appreciate that. CarsFanatic321 20:58, 9 March 2009 (UTC)

Hey
I decided I'm gonna come back to the third party characters and skip to the Piston Cup racers, which people have already put the Blu-Ray info in, so I'll just have to put the references. CarsFanatic321 21:14, 9 March 2009 (UTC)

Hey kiddo
We haven't talked 4 a while, I'm making disambiguation pages for people with the same first name, (as you can see, i put alot of work into Brian), and cleaning up around here. I noticed your'e putting the Blu-Ray info on some cars pages. CarsFanatic321 22:30, 19 March 2009 (UTC)
 * I put quite a few of those disambig pages up as well. Jeff said we'll have to see if we get any flak about that. - RaptorWiki 22:35, 19 March 2009 (UTC)
 * And kiddo? I'm probably twice your age. :) - RaptorWiki 22:35, 19 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Remember to fix any pages that link to the new disambig pages. - RaptorWiki 23:43, 19 March 2009 (UTC)

I updated Cars Die-Cast line
Just so you know, it says on eBay and Cars Drive In Gallery that they released Milton Calypeer, Andrea, and Chuki with Kanji Card, and they have pictures, so i updated the article. CarsFanatic321 22:36, 30 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Yeah, the case was released last week. I never got a chance to update the article.  I do have images to use for them.  Thanks! - RaptorWiki 09:20, 31 March 2009 (UTC)
 * You're welcome. I collect the diecasts so I like to check to see whats next. I have 117 so far; I've been collecting them ever since they came out. CarsFanatic321 11:09, 31 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Me too. I haven't counted in a while though.  Have all that are released in stores except for Elvis, Andrea, Milton, and Chuki on Kanji card.  Well, I'm also missing Re-Volting from that Target pack (who I will get later this year when the launcher is released), and Rollin' Bowlin' Mater from the game. - RaptorWiki 17:00, 31 March 2009 (UTC)
 * I am also not collecting all of the haulers - too expensive. If the character is released as a Mega Size Semi, I buy that instead of the hauler.  Otherwise I buy the hauler. - RaptorWiki 17:02, 31 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Same thing with me. I only bought the Wally Hauler because he's cool. I just received Andrea. And you're lucky, because I don't even have some of the Supercharged ones, like Flea and Flik, and Mia and Tia. You'll eventually get Andrea because Target had 3 of them. CarsFanatic321 19:02, 31 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Well that's the only way to get Wally. I doubt he'll be a Mega Size Semi.  Same thing with Jerry and Gil - probably only haulers.  My P.T. Flea and Flik are WOC, not SC.  They only came out as SC in international releases, not U.S. releases.  Same with Rusty and Dusty. - RaptorWiki 19:40, 31 March 2009 (UTC)
 * It took me forever, and i mean forever to get Leroy Traffik, and I just received it recently. And I received Rusty and Dusty last year. And I know for sure they won't make a Wally Mega Size. By the way, where did you get Mia and Tia and Flea and Flik? CarsFanatic321 23:58, 31 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Wow, I don't even remember. That was last year sometime.  Probably Mia and Tia at Walmart, and Rusty and Dusty at Target, but I can't be sure.  Why? - RaptorWiki 09:17, 1 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Well, i got my Rusty and Dusty at K-Mart. I was wondering because since I don't have those, I could check there more often for cars. Anyway, I just got Milton.CarsFanatic321 18:57, 1 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Nice. Lots of time to get that still. - RaptorWiki 01:41, 2 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Just picked up the 3-Car Gift Pack with Wide Chick Pitty, Bruiser Bukowski and Mater. - RaptorWiki 09:19, 1 April 2009 (UTC)
 * I just picked up Impound Wingo. I only have one more Impound car to get now: Impound Snot Rod. I got Impound Boost on eBay, Impound DJ at Target, Impound Wingo at Target, and Impound McQueen at Walgreens. Hopefully I'll find Impound Snot Rod.CarsFanatic321 23:47, 4 April 2009 (UTC)

HEY! It's Me
It's me again. You remember me. We haven't talked since April, man! Anyhoo, I'm collecting the Cars Toon diecasts now, because the regular Cars line isn't in stores anymore, just the stupid eye-changing ones and the Cars Toon ones. So far, I have Nurse GTO, Orderly Pitties, and Burnt Lightning McQueen. They're REALLY expensive for some reason. Two questions, are you collecting those too, and are you making a Cars Toon diecast page? CarsFanatic321 22:05, October 15, 2009 (UTC)
 * Hey, been a while. Actually, there still is a regular line. It is called "Final Lap" instead of "Race O Rama", and they are only at Target for now. Check out that section on the Cars line page. There are still some new Race O Rama cars coming too, mostly in the launchers and as Chase cars in the singles packaging. But the Race O Rama stuff will be phased out shortly. Remember, tomorrow is Kmart Cars Day 3, with new Piston Cup Racers with rubber tires. That's at 11AM local time tomorrow morning. And no, I am not collecting the Cars Toon stuff. I have almost every character from the main line, so it's too expensive to buy all the Cars Toon line. Maybe only if I see something I particularly like I would get it. And yes, I have already created a page for the Cars Toon die-casts here: Cars Toons Die-Cast Line. Take a look at this and also the latest Race O Rama and Final Lap stuff. Pretty neat stuff. - RaptorWiki 13:45, October 16, 2009 (UTC)
 * Sorry bout the late reply. Its CarsFanatic on my other account. And yes, i have known about the Final Lap series before you wrote that. Anyway, i havent been on this wiki in a while, i've mainly been editing the MarioWiki. So yeah. Now i have the following Cars Toons: Nurse GTO, Orderly Pitties, Burnt Lightning McQueen, Rescue Squad Mater, Dr. Mater, Rescue Squad Chopper, Soaked Lightning McQueen, Yokoza, Kabuto, Cannonball Mater, High Dive Mater, Nurse Kori, that car that looks like Axle Accelerator (forget his name), Props McGee, and Lug and Nutty. Recently, I just got Fred with Fallen Bumper, Fillmore with Organic Gas Cans, Lightning McQueen with Shovel, Jay Limo, Marlon Clutches McKay, and Vern. i also have the color changing Ramone. Also, I am currently keeping the following cars in mint condition, since they are really rare: Nick Stickers, Pit Crew Member Sarge, and Costanzo Della Corsa. I remember seeing One Eye Mater in stores but i never bought it. One last question, where do you keep your cars? I keep mine on a shelf, this Cars thing that has three bins on the bottom, and this other shelf. XxTimberlakexx 18:52, August 17, 2010 (UTC)
 * Hey. I keep mine on a display that has slatwall hooks. I have every character so far except for maybe 5 or 6 of the newest ones. I need Vinyl Toupee Hauler, Shifty Drug Hauler, Bessie, Bert, Fillmore with Organic Gas Cans and Rust-Eze Lightning McQueen with Can. There may be another one or two I'm not thinking of...and I have the Lightning McQueen with Shovel, but only with lenticular eyes. I need the Final Lap version with regular eyes. I only pick up the moving eyes ones if there's a chance I may not find the regular eye version. - RaptorWiki 01:34, August 18, 2010 (UTC)
 * Thats really cool. I was able to find Fillmore with Organic Gas Cans AND Fred with Fallen Bumper at Disney. Try going to Once Upon a Toy or the World of Disney stores. I found mine at Once Upon a Toy. I believe i'm missing a bunch of the cars such as Jamie and Johnny and all of the ones you need (except for Fillmore). How old are you by the way? XxTimberlakexx 11:58, August 26, 2010 (UTC)
 * Old. 32. - RaptorWiki 16:22, August 26, 2010 (UTC)
 * Old?! That's not old! When you get well into your 40s, then let's talk about being old. . . --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 17:03, August 26, 2010 (UTC)
 * Haha. Well, I'm sure 32 is much older than XxTimberlakexx. :) - RaptorWiki 08:59, August 27, 2010 (UTC)
 * Do you keep any cars in mint condition like i do? And yes you are 20 years older than me lol. I've been collecting these since i was 9.XxTimberlakexx 11:56, September 1, 2010 (UTC)
 * Yes, and I keep them sealed when possible. - RaptorWiki 16:28, September 1, 2010 (UTC)
 * Off the top of my head, the only one that isn't in its packaging is the SDCC Lightning Storm Lightning McQueen. You can't see it unless you don't take it out of the cardboard box. but I haven't touched the car inside the display case. I have a 3-pack of the Shiny Wax team on card that they resealed with those clear little round stickers to hold the blister on, which aren't holding well, so they're kind of open to the air directly, but the stickers haven't come off yet the whole way. - RaptorWiki 16:31, September 1, 2010 (UTC)
 * Hey, sorry about all the late replies, i've been really busy on other wikis. Anyway, first of all, why do you collect disney cars at 32? Also, at walmart, i found tim rimmer, van, and duff wrecks! And van... well i've been looking for him for YEARS! And actually, i collect the lenticular ones if i see them before i see the ones without lenticulars, but if i see the original first, then thats that. I also picked up Richard Clayton Kensington the other day, and today i got a huge shelf for the rest of my cars lying around (the first shelf got filled up) and the top shelf has a light! Also, the cars i'm currently keeping in mint condition are Antonio Veloce Excellente, Nick Stickers, and Pit Crew Member Sarge, the first one is lenticular, the last two arent. Have you gotten tim rimmer and duff wrecks yet? And you still dont collect cars toons right? XxTimberlakexx 04:24, November 28, 2010 (UTC)
 * You arent responding. I'm CarsFanatic321, on my other account. XxTimberlakexx 23:25, December 6, 2010 (UTC)
 * Sorry, I didn't even see that above until now. I collect them because I like them. I like the movie, I like the cars. There's TONS of people as old as me and A LOT older than me that collect these things as well, partially as an investment, partially because they're just so cool. Have you been on http://www.takefiveaday.com/ ? I've been looking on there and sometimes posting for years. There's many people on there collecting for themselves that are as old or older than me, there's younger people, and also people collecting for their kids. People of all ages are there. You don't have to be very young to collect something. But it's also not like I take them out and play with them on a plastic track or with a playset either. I get some for my 2-year old son to do that with! Mine are all still in their packaging. If you look down through the Cars Die-Cast Line page, I have every character shown on there that has been released, except for Paul Valdez hauler, Bessie, the vehicles in the Team Bumper Save Crew set from Target, the vehicles from the Team Octain Gain Crew set from Target, and now the latest non-moving eyes vehicles that are at Target: Valerie Veate, Jonathan Wrenchworths, Milo, Marilyn & Timothy "Timezone" Truecoat. Duff Wrecks is also out with non-moving eyes, who I hope to get soon, but for now I have the moving eyes version. Once I get the non-moving eyes version, I will give the moving eyes version to my son to open and play with. Sounds awesome on your shelf. Right now I have a peg board fixture from a store that went out of business, and most of my cars are hanging on that, just like they would in the stores. The haulers are still in a big box. Oh, and yes I have Tim Rimmer. I have him in that Speedway 9-Pack from Target. And no, I still don't collect Cars Toons cars, really. The only ones I have are Dragon Lightning McQueen with the 2010 Collectors Guide, since that was the only way to get the guide, and I also have the red Ransburg Rescue Squad Mater that came with the Blu Ray version of the movie, along with the gold Ransburg Cruisin' McQueen. - RaptorWiki 13:39, December 7, 2010 (UTC)
 * Golly gee wilikers! My Cars i need list is getting superfull, and now its up to 3 pages! We'll see how i do on those when i find them. Also, i ran across some Heavy Metal Mater cars, and they are too cool! I had to get them! Also, obviously i think its a waste a money to buy two of the same car, lenticular and non lenticular, but since you have kids, it makes sense. Also, do you have a picture of yourself, so i know who i'm talking to? Honestly, i like the ones without changing eyes since i've grown up with the cars without lenticulars. And they havent updated Cars Drive In Gallery in a long time. I also just recently found Artie without changing eyes, and my dad bought it for an xmas present. I cant find the Dragon Lightning Mcqueen with collectors guide yet, i still have the one that came with Night Vision McQueen. You are so lucky to have the peg shelf! Of course, i only have 3 in mint condition, so it would serve no purpose to me. And do you have every single car in existence, and how often do you go to target? Of course, my parents just bought a new house for my mom to live in, and they're kinda short on money, but i hope they can still buy me some of the cars i need. Also, you should really comment me back on my talk page so i can reply faster if im on another wiki. Also, that is very true about the age of someone collecting something, as long as you're having fun collecting. Also, i rarely play with the cars, except roll them around my desk when im on the computer sometimes and sometimes drift them and listen to the different screeching sounds for each car. I remember i used to play with them very often in 3rd grade, even having races, and since im an only child, i had to push each individual one myself to see which one went faster. Also, one more question, i have the old Desert series DJ, and the new one has green lightning on the side instead of blue. Is this a misprint, or is it supposed to be this way, and if it is, does it really matter if i get it or not? Sorry for the long post btw. - XxTimberlakexx 23:58, December 12, 2010 (UTC)
 * I've seen about all those Cars Toons vehicles. They do look pretty neat. I would collect them too, but that's just too much money. So I've stuck with cars from the movie. I don't have every car in existence, but I belive I have every character, extra for the newest Final Laps and a couple I am missing that mentioned before, like Bessie. Not really missing anything else. You name the character, I probably have it. I don't get to Target very often, so it has for me to get Final Lap cars and the Team packs. I have a buddy that travels for work a lot and I rely on him to find the Target ones for me, since I only get to a Target myself once every 2 or 3 months, maybe less. If you click on "Follow this page" at the bottom of this page when you leave your next comment, you'll see when I ever respond on my Talk page from now on. It's easier that way. Oh, and regarding that DJ with the green on the side...they made a correction recently and fixed how he looks. The blue was changed to green so he matches what he looked like in the movie. The original blue ones that they've been releasing up until recently were incorrect, as far as matching the movie. That DJ with the green is available as lenticular and non-lenticular too, by the way. Talk to you later. - RaptorWiki 02:17, December 13, 2010 (UTC)
 * Also, btw, i have all of the impound cars, mcqueen, snot rod, dj, wingo, and boost, and on the impound dj, his lightning bolt is green. Also you still havent replied to my question: Do you have a picture of yourself so i know who i'm talking to?. See if you missed anything else. Also, if i do get the green lightning dj, what could i possibly do with the old one? Another question: I dont have any of those Kmart exclusive Piston Cup racers, and where could i possibly get them for a cheap price? Oh wait, ebay might have them, i just got a $25 ebay gift card. Also, did they come out with N2O Cola pitty? I really have no idea. Nah, its alright, ill just check your talk page often. Good god, they're releasing too many cars. You know whats funny? It started out as an innocent cars diecast line where the kids knew all the characters, but now, the kids that still collect have no idea who these new cars are, and only die-hard fans like you and I would know about, such as Valerie Veate, Timothy Twostroke, and such. - XxTimberlakexx 03:30, December 20, 2010 (UTC)
 * I really don't think there's a need to share a photo. Well if you collect these, and not just play with them, you'd need both the green lightning DJ and the blue one in order to have a more complete collection...so you wouldn't do anything but keep the blue one too. No, N2O Cola pitty is not out yet. EBay would definitely have those racers, but don't know how cheap. Some are definitely not going to be cheap. You don't have ANY, from any of the Kmart days? - RaptorWiki 14:46, December 20, 2010 (UTC)
 * I am so angry at my cat, we sold him today because my dad's allergic to him, but yesterday he knocked down a whole shelf of my cars! (only one of the little things on it) and i lost one of my pitties! Has something like this happened to you? Nope, dont have any Kmarts, whats the cheapest they're going for on ebay?. I also dont have Sally With cone, another one i've been rummaging for for years. Oh by the way, is there anything i can help with on this wiki? I've been working on the LyricWiki and Logopedia mainly these days. Also, are you the creator of this wiki? Oh, and i saw a picture of an actual N2O Cola Pitty in my old Cars Collector guide (still tryin to find the new one) and i figured he would be out soon. Also, i wonder when High and Low Ramone will be out. One more thing: Do you have a separate room for all of your cars, like a room dedicated to all of them? - XxTimberlakexx 02:23, December 27, 2010 (UTC)
 * No, nothing like that has ever happened to me. Which pitty did you lose? You mean you "lost" it because it broke when it fell, or it's just under something and you haven't found it yet? You'd have to look on ebay to see what the Kmart cars are going for on any given day....and they're all very different prices. Some are pretty expensive. You can do whatever you want on this Wiki....I've pretty much got the Cars and Cars Toons Die-Cast line pages under control, but feel free to add anything that is missing. Probably 98% of those pages is from me, maybe even 100% on the Cars Toons one. I was trying to add screen shots of the characters from Cars Toons that don't have and don't need their own pages, but can be shown on the Cars Toons individual episodes' pages. I have a lot, but not all. For example, I added a picture of Komodo at the bottom of the Tokyo Mater page (have him listed in the characters on that page, with a link to the gallery), but for Moon Mater, I don't have ones of Roger (and any others from that episode), and none from Mater Private Eye either. And no, I am not the creator of the Pixar Wiki. I don't know who actually started this one. Yeah, N2O pitty has been pictures for a long time, but hasn't been released yet for some reason. He may end up coming out in a Target Team pack with the rest of the pit crew. Don't know, or if, High-N-Low Ramone will ever be released now. Not much time left before they switch over to Cars 2 vehicles. I have my Cars in a separate room with all my collectibles, yes, but there's not just Cars there. - RaptorWiki 14:39, December 27, 2010 (UTC)
 * I dont know which one i lost, and its under something i think. I know i lost one because when he knocked them over, he knocked some of the tires in the pitty's hand over, and when i put them all back, it turns out i am missing RPM Pitty's tires and right now i have just blue tires and idk who they belong to. Luke Pettlework and Easy Idle Pitty already have their blue tires. And they have the two tires on their hand and not 4 right? Could you check? Oh and good news, i just found Valerie Veate and Mater with Oil Cans at Target. You're gonna collect Cars 2 vehicles also? Yeah, i will too. Also, I thought MPE and MM didnt come out yet. Oh yeah, and i remember i started adding trivia to Cars character pages if they've been released in the Cars Diecast Line. Also, i can help you on adding screenshots on cars toons characters.
 * XxTimberlakexx 23:37, December 27, 2010 (UTC)
 * Yeah, it should be two tires. I doubt I will collect Cars 2 vehicles. This is too expensive. Yes, Moon Mater and Mater Private Eye were released on DVD and Blu-Ray in November, along with the rest of the Cars Toons. - RaptorWiki 13:59, December 28, 2010 (UTC)
 * Do you have a good paying job? Although you need some of the cash to pay bills and all that, you should still have some left for Cars 2. Oh, and i found out what was wrong. Easy Idle Pitty had RPM's tires, and i overlooked it as blue and white. Thanks anyway! Wow, we're running out of things to say. Um, just to help me, what does roger look like?
 * XxTimberlakexx 14:45, December 28, 2010 (UTC)
 * Well yeah, I do have enough money to buy them, but it really should be saved for other more important things. I don't think my wife would appreciate me collecting the Cars 2 vehicles for another 5 years, like I did for the Cars vehicles. The money could be used on home improvement, used to pay higher payments on loans to pay them off more quickly, and for our kids. We have a second coming in February. So I probably shouldn't spend on Cars 2 stuff. At least not all of them, like I did for Cars. Maybe just certain ones I like a lot or something. Roger is a space shuttle that takes Mater to the moon. - RaptorWiki 18:42, December 29, 2010 (UTC)
 * Good news, i just took a picture of Roger and put it on the Moon Mater page. Also, any other Cars Toon characters you need pics of? If you do, tell me what they look like. And you know, you gotta do what's best for your family. Hopefully they won't release too many in the Cars 2 line, but i doubt it. They just want you to buy more. i think Zundapp and Siddeley are pretty cool, and maybe you should get them. Also, in the unused files (Special:Unusedfiles) there is a hell of a lot of unused photos that need to be deleted (except the pictures of the diecast cars which show up as unused since you just put a URL to them in the cars diecast line page), could you please delete those? I would really appreciate it.
 * XxTimberlakexx 21:55, December 29, 2010 (UTC)
 * Impala XIII is needed. Just look at the character list on each episode page to see who is missing. The Carbacabana girl is needed for Mater Private Eye, Big D, a whole bunch more from that. I'll check out the unused photos. But other people may do similar things like I did, just link to them, so they don't take up page space. I'll have to see what cars from Cars 2 I like. They'll probably make even more than they did for the first movie. - RaptorWiki 23:04, December 29, 2010 (UTC)
 * OK, i'll check on that. Also, i just found Jonathan Wrenchworths and Matti at Target, also found Van-San, Big Fan, and Dex. You know whats weird? In the movie, Jonathan's license plate reads EMILE, and the diecast model reads EVILLE. Is this a misprint or something? Also, i'm going to upload pictures of Vern and Jonathan from the front, since having pictures of them from the back seems useless. Also, i think its cool that they made faces for Vern and Jonathan, dont you think? Also, i know you removed my pictures of mia and tia and elvis because they were bad quality, i assume?
 * XxTimberlakexx 01:38, January 4, 2011 (UTC)
 * That's strange on the license plate thing. Don't know if they're all wrong or not. Please leave the pictures in the top right for all the characters, as they are all either photos from the Cars Finder or are the ones with the Cars logo by them. Trying to be somewhat consistent. If you add any other pictures, add them to a gallery in the article or something, please. And I'm actually surprised they released them as die-casts if they never showed their faces! - RaptorWiki 10:07, January 4, 2011 (UTC)

This section is getting quite long
I made another section, other one was getting quite long. Also, those cars from MPE, what do they look like so i can know what to look for? OK, sorry about that, i put vern in a thumbnail in the Blu-Ray Cars Finder Description part of the article. Also, do you think they're gonna release Syd Vanderkamper and all those other guys? Well, you have jonathan wrenchworths, correct? I know you havent opened it, so turn the box so you can see his license plate and see if it says EMILE or EVILLE. I think its cool that they reveal faces for those guys, that is just too cool. What i dont understand though, is why Dudley Spare and Hugo Fast have pictures from their diecast cards, when you want pictures from the cars finder. Is it because they dont have a thing in the cars finder?
 * XxTimberlakexx 12:54, January 4, 2011 (UTC)
 * You'd have to find the video online to watch to see what they look like. Kind of hard to explain them all. Yeah, I think they'll release the campers and RVs, but not sure. No, I don't have Wrenchworths. I don't have the 6 latest Final Laps yet. I don't live near a Target, so haven't been able to get to one. And when I do, they probably won't have them. And no, those guys don't have a Cars Finder picture. - RaptorWiki 15:16, January 4, 2011 (UTC)
 * Wow, i just saw the new cars 2 character art! I wonder who's going to play Fillmore?

New Toy Story Short: Hawaii?
Didn't know whether to post this on the articles talk-page or not, but anyway, I believe the new Untitled Toy Story Short will be named "Hawaii" and feature Ken and Barbie trying to go on holiday. Here's an genuine article on the development here: http://pixarplanet.com/blog/new-toy-story-short-hawaii Thanks! Effluvium 18:14, December 28, 2010 (UTC)
 * Hey. Yeah, I'd put it on the article's talk page, but according to that link, a Pixar animator actually called it Hawaii, so that's a pretty good source.  I'd put it on the talk page and see if anyone else has any news on it.  If nothing points to a different name, we can change it to Hawaii.  If we find something telling otherwise, we can change it. Thanks! - RaptorWiki 01:19, December 29, 2010 (UTC)

New Cars 2 images
Hi, I've been busy lately, but I discovered these new images on the Empire magazine website today, aswell as a new trailer-thing. http://www.empireonline.com/news/story.asp?NID=29847 Perhaps you could add them? :) Effluvium 14:31, January 8, 2011 (UTC)
 * Nevermind. I see they're all ready on here. :P Effluvium 14:33, January 8, 2011 (UTC)
 * I really think it's a good idea if we use the new cars 2 profile character pictures on their wikis. We should do what we did for toy story 3, when they released their character photos. We could maybe put the older cars profiles, in a a characters gallery instead. Endrizzi427 16:28, January 8, 2011 (UTC)
 * Yeah, just please don't remove images that are of better quality either. If the old one is better, leave it.  And yeah, I'd put the images from the first movie down below in the article, instead of removing it. - RaptorWiki 17:10, January 9, 2011 (UTC)

Why deleting the information on Chunk and Twitch?
Hello RaptorWiki! I just joined in and I've edited a few pages. I was wondering why you are deleting all the information I added on Twitch and Chunk. I think they are important and they should stay. Can you please tell me why you are keep deleting them? Spongebob321 01:15, January 29, 2011 (UTC)

Um, did you read this yet? I've posted this quite a while. I'l wait. If you don't post back in a REALLY long time, I'm gonna just undo your revision again. Please post back and why you're deleting the information on Twith and Chunk?! Spongebob321 00:01, February 9, 2011 (UTC)


 * Hi. Sorry, didn't notice this. Your last revision to Twitch was NOT deleted. It is there. Your revision to Chunk was removed because it was not necessary and was full of bad grammar. If you feel it is necessary, clean up the grammar. The Twitch page needed grammar edits too, but someone else fixed it for you I see. Thanks. - RaptorWiki 18:31, February 9, 2011 (UTC)

Thank you! I admit I'm not so good with grammer. Maybe you, or some other users could edit my revision. I'm probably gonna undo the edit so I, or other people could edit the grammer. Spongebob321 02:12, February 10, 2011 (UTC)

Comic book articles?
Are we going to be creating comic book articles, after Marvel Comics announced they were starting a new line entitled: Disney Pixar Presents? I don't think we have articles for the Incredibles comic books published by BOOM! Studios either? Link: http://marvel.com/news/story/15223/marvel_and_disney_publishing_worldwide_to_launch_disneypixar_presents_magazines --Effluvium 21:56, February 16, 2011 (UTC)
 * I'd think that if someone wanted to create articles on them, they would be welcomed! If it has to do with Pixar, there's a place here for it! :) - RaptorWiki 22:19, February 16, 2011 (UTC)

Admin?
Hello, I've been helping this wiki since about October. I have a Pixar blog and was wondering if I could become an administrator on here? I would love to help this wiki out a ton (with my knowledge from my blog). 04:10, February 20, 2011 (UTC) Dduvall95
 * Hello. I was looking through your contributions, and I do not see that you added very much. Thank you however, for your contributions! Please use your knowledge to continue to contribute wherever you can! Everyone is free to contribute! Thank you! - RaptorWiki 16:04, February 20, 2011 (UTC)
 * So Basically you're saying I can't become an admin because I haven't contributed to much? Change your considerations for adding admins. Most of the stuff I've put on here have been changed or deleted.
 * No, no, I'm not saying the amount of contributions keeps you from becoming an admin. That was just a response to your statement regarding your number of contributions.  However, the amount of contributions, time on this Wikia, contribution content and grammar and spelling, the trust from existing administrators, and the indication of a desire to become an administrator, do help when considering someone for an administrator.  You've taken one step in showing your desire to help as an admin.  Please continue to contribute and help out as much as possible!  Thanks! - RaptorWiki 16:19, February 28, 2011 (UTC)

Why undo changes to Radiator Springs ?
Hello ! I have a question. Why did the edits I once made to the Radiator Springs page were deleted ? I don't really understand... Particulary, why not keep Big Al in the resident section ? Is that because he is gone ? Gray Catbird 17:00, March 8, 2011 (UTC)
 * I just looked back, and those edits were not really necessary, and the grammar was also incorrect. And I didn't even see the Big Al reference at the time. I don't see any problem with having Big Al listed as a former resident. - RaptorWiki 18:03, March 8, 2011 (UTC)
 * Understood. Thank you very much for your answer and explications ! Gray Catbird 18:14, March 8, 2011 (UTC)

Slider
Hi there! I'm loving all the recent developments on the wiki, and Cars 2 is shaping up to be pretty awesome, isn't it? :) Anyway, I was just wondering if you were willing to include a slider on the Pixar Wiki's mainpage? We could have a picture of the Cars 2 poster, and then something like "Going where no car has gone before" or "Driving into theaters on..." and then maybe just some other stuff about Brave, or Toy Story 3, or a slide with all the Pixar characters, which links to a category or something? It could work. If not, no biggie, just wanna contribute an idea! :) --UFO Editor 00:01, March 19, 2011 (UTC)

How did you reply so fast ? !

Hey dude
Hey man, of course you remember me as CarsFanatic321. XD Just for your note, I found a few Cars 2 diecasts at my local dollar store and picked Francesco Bernoulli up. I also saw Finn McMissile, Race Team Mater, Professor Z, Jeff Gorvette, and that pink Sally i forget the name of. These were not shipped to Wal-Mart yet, however. These cars seem to be a cheaper kind of diecast, with the bottom being just bare plastic. XxTimberlakexx 00:42, April 28, 2011 (UTC)
 * Hey, yeah I heard they seemed cheaper with the plastic. Don't think I'll be collecting the Cars 2 stuff. Too expensive. Do you mean Holley Shiftwell? - RaptorWiki 02:03, April 28, 2011 (UTC)
 * I think I'll collect Cars 2s just for the heck of it, but they were 5 dollars at the DOLLAR store, come on now. Hopefully they'll be cheaper at Wal-Mart when they hit there. And yes, I knew the name Holley Shiftwell, I just wasn't exactly sure if that was her. But actually, come to think of it, I don't think it's worth collecting some cheap plastic cars. I'll think it through. Anyway, how have you been? And just a note: You might want to delete the stuff in the Candidates for deletion category. XxTimberlakexx 03:30, April 28, 2011 (UTC)

where to put Cars 2 images
hey, just created a talk topic regarding Cars 2 images, thought you might have an opinion. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 12:00, April 28, 2011 (UTC)

cars 2 diecast
I reverted your edits of the cars 2 diecast line. Putting the categories in bold makes it look more organized and easier to see the categories. I also added two cars to the future deluxes which have been confirmed through photos. thanks! Endrizzi427 20:52, April 29, 2011 (UTC)


 * Yeah, that's fine. When I first quickly looked at the edits before, I thought they were quotes that were added. Quotes wouldn't have been needed. I didn't look at the actual article to see that it was just 3 single quotes to make it bold. I should have looked. Thanks! - RaptorWiki 22:31, April 29, 2011 (UTC)

Hi there
Hi there, i am here because i was invited here by other admins to become a admin. They sent me here because i am a admin, beaucrat, and a rollback at several other wikis because i am a good editor, trustworthy person, and i am very nice to those who are good people to the wiki, but i do not tolerate those who vandel. I have also watched most pixars movies so i know a lot of good and important information valuable to this wiki. I also noticed some of this wiki's pages are outdated so me becoming a admin will really help me edit the pages. Also I want to be a beaucrat because I can promote others to become a admin, rollback, or a beaucrat so they can help this wiki [i will only promote those that have atleast a good amount of edits and are trustworthy and are not vandlers to this wiki]. Thank you for your time and consideration.

 * Hello! What admin at this Wiki invited you to come here? Please continue to edit and update pages as you feel is necessary, as all are welcome to do so.  Thanks for contributing to this Wiki! - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 00:55, May 9, 2011 (UTC)

Why have you protected the Radiator Springs page! And even worse, it's infinite protection!
Why have you blocked me from editing this page? Just because I made an edit you don't like it doesn't mean you have to protect the page. This is just plain ludicrous. Pixarfandom 16:20, May 20, 2011 (UTC)


 * Because you kept changing someone's additions to the page, which were already fine. The picture you keep replacing is better than the one you are even trying to replace it with. I protected the page to keep it from being edited so often. There's no need to redo everything here, for no reason. I will remove the protection, but stop changing everything when there is no need, please. Thanks. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 17:45, May 20, 2011 (UTC)


 * I find the Radiator Springs page very well made like it is actually, but I don't understand why it has been blocked. If you two have a conflict on some images, you're better discuss what to do instead of making a silent war.


 * Independently of your conflict, a problem with having the Radiator Springs blocked is that Cars 2 is approaching. Since some of the events are in Radiator Springs, the page will have to be updated. So unless sysops make all the job, there will be a problem there...Gray Catbird 17:01, May 20, 2011 (UTC)


 * Do not worry, it was only temporary. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 17:45, May 20, 2011 (UTC)
 * Well, what was wrong with my image of Flo's V8 Cafe? It was not better than the one I replaced it with, that's just your opinion. Almost every image I add to this wiki is of high-resolution. Pixarfandom 08:11, May 21, 2011 (UTC)
 * Also on the subject if there is something you do not like about the picture just tell me. Pixarfandom 08:12, May 21, 2011 (UTC)
 * There is also nothing wrong with someone's work you are replacing on many pages. Also, higher resolution does not make something better all the time, if the image shows less of the item. The images you added there show less of the subject in some cases. If you had higher resolution images that show identical views, or at least the same amount of the item/area, there would be no problem. Otherwise, you are just replacing someone else's work for no reason. Understand where I am coming from? Thanks! - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 09:17, May 21, 2011 (UTC)
 * Alright, Ryan. I'll try and do something different next time. Don't think badly of me, that's the last thing I need. Pixarfandom 15:44, May 21, 2011 (UTC)
 * Don't worry, I don't think badly of you :). Just don't want other people's hard work being deleted/wasted for no reason.  There's no reason to change things unless there's something wrong, outdated or if you can provide more information than what is already shown (e.g. same photo but with better resolution, different photo with more of the item shown, sharper images, updating outdated article text, adding missing info, etc.).  I think you get the idea. Can't have everybody editing and undoing, editing and undoing, or it just becomes a nightmare...an endless loop.  So make sure something REALLY needs changed before changing it.  Thanks! - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 17:19, May 21, 2011 (UTC)

I'm collecting Die-Cast's now!
Hey Ryan, today I decided I wanna collect cars from the Cars Die-Cast lines. I got the Finn McMissile and Tomber 2-pack, it's cool. So anyways, since it seams your a big die-cast fan, or at least collect alot of them I wanted to ask you a question. Do you recommend any specific die-cast's? Yeah, that's kind of a hard question. And if you don't recommend any that's fine. I just wanted to know if you did. And also, do you open your die-cast's because I don't think I wanna open mine? --Aaron 21:37, May 25, 2011 (UTC)
 * Hi, Aaron. No, I do not open mine, UNLESS I think a vehicle is especially cool. In that case, I buy one to keep closed and one to open. If you're looking for a cool Cars 2 vehicle, get the Metallic Lightning McQueen from Toys R Us. There's a few more metallic ones on the way too. I also like Nigel Gearsley. Then again, my favorite color is green, so I'm sure that has something to do with it! The Lights & Sounds die-casts are pretty neat too. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 22:13, May 25, 2011 (UTC)
 * Thanks Ryan, I'll check those out, see if I like 'em. Well, of course they're all cool but there's so many you'd have to be rich to own 'em all. I'm being tempted to open the package but they seem just too valuable to be opened, unless, like you said, it's really cool and would have to buy two of them. Thanks again! --Aaron 22:58, May 25, 2011 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I almost have every single character from Cars 1 that they released. Down to my last character, as far as I'm aware. Not doing that for Cars 2, too expensive. I'll just get certain ones I like. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 00:00, May 26, 2011 (UTC)
 * Wow that's a lot of die-cast's. That's at least a few hundred of them right? At the most I'll ever get to with the die-cast's ever is probably 20-100, then again I do have almost 200 Pez dispensers, but those don't cost as much. --Aaron 00:32, May 26, 2011 (UTC)
 * I'm really not sure. I'll have to count how many different ones I have sometime! Probably over 200, yeah. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 01:42, May 26, 2011 (UTC)
 * Man that's alot. Where do you store the die-cast's? In a box? On a shelf? --Aaron 23:46, May 26, 2011 (UTC)
 * Most are hanging from hooks on a slatwall display that used to be in a store. The haulers are in a box for now. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 01:02, May 27, 2011 (UTC)
 * Interesting, interesting. Well I can't believe it, I am currently at 31 packages, 37 die-cast's. I have mostly Cars 2 die-cast's, including all the deluxe die-cast's, which is currently 4, but I also have 8 Cars die-cast's, and one Cars Toons die-cast. I took your advice, and I got the metallic Lightning McQueen from Toys 'R' Us, it's really cool. I'll get Nigel Gearsley sometime in the future, because he's from the Cars 2 line, he'll be here to stay. I'm little interested in the "Lights and Sounds" line, I don't think I'll ever buy them. I'm not as inerested in the Cars Toons line as much as Cars and Cars 2, and if they come out with new ones I don't think I'll get many. But if an old one comes up in a store I might buy it, like how I found one, "Big Fan", from Mater the Greater, at Toys 'R' Us. I said to myself: "Hey, it's old, the box is slightly damaged, might as well take it."


 * I assume you want to know which Cars die-cast's I have? I don't know, weird assumption. I'll just tell you anyways. I have Bob Cutlass, Hamm, Mario Andretti, and Bob Cutlass, Marco (Mega Size), and today I went to Kmart and bought Chick Hicks, The King, and Lightning McQueen, all 3 with synthetic rubber tires. If you have any questions don't hesitate to ask, I know the die-cast lines pretty well now. --Aaron 06:20, July 2, 2011 (UTC)
 * I haven't been keeping track. I just went and counted all my stuff. Turns out I have 300 packages, 394 die-casts. Very few of those are loose, and only 8 packages and vehicles are from Cars 2. A few are mail-in exclusives, a couple are from a Blu-Ray package, one from San Diego Comic-Con and one from MattyCollector.com. Three are foreign-only releases (Chuck Cables, Brian Motors and Stu Bop). - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 14:20, July 2, 2011 (UTC)
 * I hope it's ok to cut in on this conversation, have either of you found Ronnie Del Cooper? I have a Mini Cooper so I feel a strong "need" to have this die-cast. I haven't found him at Target yet. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 14:42, July 2, 2011 (UTC)
 * Jeff, yes, I have seen the 4-pack at Target with Ronnie Del Cooper in it. Unfortunately, I'm not near a Target very often. I can keep my eye open for it next time I'm there if you want. Or are you waiting for a single of him? - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 22:46, July 2, 2011 (UTC)
 * Wow, that seriously is a lot. Those couple are the shiny gold Lightning McQueen and shiny Rescue Squad Mater from the Cars Blu-Ray release right? Because I plan to get it, in store's again. I also don't have Cars on Blu-Ray at all either. And is the San Diego Comic-Con one the "Darth Mater" die-cast? Yeah it's alright with me Jeff. No, Ronnie Del Cooper hasn't been released yet, but I assure you he'll be released in the future, and I'll tell you when I see him. Do you collect die-cast's too Jeff? Oh, and Ryan, for that Kmart Cars Collector Day #6, it was June 25, 2010, not June 25, 2011? --Aaron 22:31, July 2, 2011 (UTC)
 * Yes, you are correct on the two from the Blu-Ray release. The Comic-Con one is Lightning Storm Lightning McQueen - the metallic paint job inside the acrylic case. Kmart Cars Collector Day 6 was June 25, 2011, just last weekend. The last three cars from the first movie (as of right now - don't know if they announce any more, perhaps as exclusives) were released at it. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 22:50, July 2, 2011 (UTC)
 * Ryan, thanks for e offer, but if you've seen it then at least I know it's possible I will find it. I live close to a couple Targets so will continue to check them out. I'll take him either in the 4-pack or as a single. Aaron, I've collected a few but no where as seriously as you two - I probably have a total of 30 cars. I don't keep them in the packaging, after Cars, I lined them all up on my window sill at work! And my kids like to see and play with them. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 02:46, July 3, 2011 (UTC)
 * Oh, I was thinking of Ronnie Del Cooper as a single. Sorry Jeff. Now that you mention it Ryan, I think I did see Ronnie in a 4-pack. And about that Kmart Cars Collector Day #6 question, I asked that because both the Cars and Cars 2 Die-Cast Line pages say 2010, not 2011, and I went yesterday and got synthetic rubber tire Lightning, Chick, and The King. Yeah, I don't think they'll be releasing anymore die-cast's from the first Cars, it's been 5 years, but who knows. I didn't find Hydraulic Ramone, however. I'll change them to the right date. Thanks. --Aaron 05:52, July 3, 2011 (UTC)

 * Hi. Sorry, but I don't collect Toy Story items. Sorry, I can't help you. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 14:42, June 21, 2011 (UTC)

Hello!
You remember me of course. CarsFanatic321 was my old account. How did you like Cars 2? I loved it! I also love the little references and cameos they brought back (i.e. Kabuto and Yokoza, reference to State Farm, The Incredimobiles billboard) XxTimberlakexx 21:55, June 27, 2011 (UTC)
 * Cars 2 was ok. I liked Cars 1 better, but this was still good. The animation was awesome. Not enough character development as there was in Cars 1. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 22:08, June 27, 2011 (UTC)
 * Yea, I liked Cars better. Cars 2 was very good, great animation, and just a fun movie. But I related more to Cars; I loved the whole Route 66 storyline and the nostalgia of it all. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 00:13, June 28, 2011 (UTC)
 * Ditto that. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 00:40, June 28, 2011 (UTC)
 * Yeah. Speaking of which, do you have a few Cars 2 diecasts? I have 5 so far. XxTimberlakexx 17:29, July 1, 2011 (UTC)
 * Only a few. Not collecting all of Cars 2 ones, like I did for Cars. Only the metallic paint ones and the Kmart day ones. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 18:11, July 1, 2011 (UTC)
 * That's cool, man. So far I have Professor Z, Jeff Gorvette, Finn McMissile, Raoul CaRoule, and Francesco Bernoulli. XxTimberlakexx 02:53, July 2, 2011 (UTC)

Cars Quiz 2
Hello, I was just playing the new Cars Quiz and notice that on the fith question, the one where it says "which character does not belong in Cars 2?", it says the correct answer is Thurgood Bentley,

But he is the main bad guy of Cars 2. I was wondering if the quiz could be corrected.

-nicdem25


 * Hello. The main villain of Cars 2 is actually Miles Axlerod.  Thurgood Bentley is not a character in Cars 2.  Thanks. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 10:44, June 30, 2011 (UTC)

Toy Story series
Can i make a page about the toy story franchise.

Kh2cool 23:34, July 3, 2011 (UTC)
 * Hello. There are already many pages regarding the Toy Story series.  Please feel free to make contributions to them! Thanks! - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 13:25, July 4, 2011 (UTC)

Model T on train tracks in Cars 2
I will prove y'all wrong that is Lizzie, If you saw the movie you would know. Look at the picture. Same head-lights same car, listen and it will sound just like Lizzie and her laugh. Also, go to disney.com go to the mega poster, next to flo, sally, adn them, is that same person in that picture it's lizzie. Zannabanna
 * Actually, that poster helps prove it is NOT Lizzie, as the makers of the the poster did not make that image of that Model T into a link that links to Lizzie, as the other character images do. It doesn't link to anything. Thanks for pointing that out. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 17:19, July 7, 2011 (UTC)
 * It even can be identified as another "car" than a Ford Model T, as a Galloping Goose. This is an evidence of more that it is not Lizzie disguised in some miner car. I cannot say more, since I haven't seen the movie yet...--Gray Catbird 18:36, July 7, 2011 (UTC)
 * I know it is Lizzie listen to the voice, and they wouldn't put a minor character on the poster, Lizzie isn't on there is she, but yes she is, she's just dressed up as a miner to scare lighting and mater, listen to the voice, plus Sarge and Filmore don't have a link not everyone does....it's lizzie. Zannabanna
 * Actually, there's a TON of minor characters on that poster. And you are correct, there is no other Lizzie to be seen. I have seen the movie, and don't recall hearing that vehicle sound like Lizzie. But you are also correct, in that Sarge and Fillmore don't have a link either. This still does not mean the car on the tracks is Lizzie. As Gray Catbird pointed out, it might not even be a Model T like Lizzie. But there is a chance it could be as well. I'm on the fence now. We need more proof I think. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 23:47, July 7, 2011 (UTC)
 * Well when they release Cars 2 on video or release this scene I'll show you. ;) [[user:Zannabanna|Zannabanna

Listen i'll upload the scene of the Ford Model T on YouTube, to help prove your point RaptorWiki Madbomberfan


 * Prove MY point? So you think it is not Lizzie either? I'm starting to think it may be after all. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 15:17, July 9, 2011 (UTC)

Guys I think that is Lizzie because when I was in the theater watching it I was like wow lizzie wow and my friends even agreed that was Lizzie.And she did laugh the same ok people We are right that is Lizzie. Tatertot623 14:44, July 9, 2011 (UTC)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rnl_reWq08I




 * Yep, that is NOT Lizzie. Thanks! - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 15:36, July 9, 2011 (UTC)


 * That is Lizzie....there is no other car like her in the films...listen to the laugh.....who else laughs like that..........................Lizzie,,,,,,,,,she's in the poster by Sally and the main gang from radiator springs, which means it's lizzie cause lizzie ain't anywhere in that poster, and they wouldn't put a character that appeared once with no lines by the main gang its lizzie user:Zannabanna


 * The laugh is actually a man's laugh, like an old man. Lizzie doesn't have a bed, like the miner car. And the front wheels are replaced with wheels with side rods like an old train. Back to thinking it's not her. The "not in the poster" thing does get me though... What do you other guys think? - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 16:09, July 9, 2011 (UTC)


 * No........no...........that is NOT Lizzie. Do you honestly think it makes sense that Lizzie would be on a train track doing that?... Just because the car looks like Lizzie, you can't assume it is Lizzie......and its clear they're not.... And the laugh is of a man.......moving on! User:Endrizzi427


 * It is Lizzie....read my paraggrah above this comment...User:Zannabanna


 * I agree, it sounds like a man. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 16:10, July 9, 2011 (UTC)


 * That's Lizzie....read my paragrahs User:Zannabanna


 * We did read your paragraphs. That is what we are replying to. Lizzie doesn't laugh like an old man, nor does she look like that. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 16:14, July 9, 2011 (UTC)


 * That is lizzie.........on other car look like that....poster....who else laughs like that....who else looks like that.......who else messes around like that............LIZZIE........the laugh sounds like a women.............does someone need t contact pixar and ask them.......................lizzie has CHANGED since first film 4 years ago.....and she dressed up User:Zannabanna


 * Lizzie could have added all of that to herself...ITS HER....LAUGH IS NOT OF A MAN User:Zannabanna


 * Lizzie doesn't mess around like that. And the laugh is clearly an old man. Evidently, there is a miner car that somewhat resembles Lizzie. And what do you mean she has changed? Her other shots in the movie don't have her shown with a bed and train wheels. Clearly, this is going nowhere. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 16:21, July 9, 2011 (UTC)


 * She can ADD that to her...DUH User:Zannabanna


 * Interview with John Lasseter:
 * http://blogs.wsj.com/speakeasy/2011/06/20/with-cars-2-john-lasseter-gives-a-franchise-a-tune-up/
 * NOT Lizzie. Settled. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 17:20, July 9, 2011 (UTC)


 * I don't see anything about it User:Zannabanna


 * Near the bottom. "Oh yeah. There’s a lot of trains, I got trains, I got a galloping gear grinder, we call him—the little, oh, the old Model T that’s running on the train rails at the beginning." - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 17:24, July 9, 2011 (UTC)


 * I sitll think its' lizzie User:Zannabanna


 * So JOHN LASSETER is wrong about his own movie? - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 17:28, July 9, 2011 (UTC)


 * I say he might of just forgot that it was lizzie User:Zannabanna


 * Forgot? It's John Lasseter. Now that's just being ridiculous. I'm with John Lasseter on this one....it's HIS movie. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 17:40, July 9, 2011 (UTC)


 * He must have a lot on his mind but whatever Zannabanna
 * Hey, thanks for the article ! I'm suprised Lasseter reffers to it as the old Model T, since, as I said, it's really not a Model T, but a Galloping Goose... Anyway, I really think it's not Lizzie. I hope the die-cast will give some precisions on all this. Oh, yeah, anoher thing....Speaking of the poster... If Lizzie isn't seen with the rest of the Radiator Springs gang it's because she doesn't go to London with the others, and the poster probably was supposed to show only those who did, as they are seen in the London panel... And if the Galloping Goose appears next to them, it could be because it's an interesting car they wanted to put it on the poster and didn't find another place... Gray Catbird 18:47, July 9, 2011 (UTC)
 * I actually think it's not a Galloping Goose, but a modified Model T. The first predecessor of the Galloping Goose was actually a modified Model T, but it didn't look like this miner car from the movie.
 * http://rgsrr.home.comcast.net/~rgsrr/rgs/goose_tline.html
 * For everyone, here's an example of a Galloping Goose:
 * http://www.prewarbuick.com/img/features/galloping_goose_buick_rail_motor/14abb98d0.jpg
 * The one in Cars 2 looks shorter and more like a Model T, like Lasseter says. So I think it is a modified Model T.  Kudos on suggesting a Galloping Goose in your post way back at the beginning!! - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 21:07, July 9, 2011 (UTC)

Guys im only gonna say this once that is not Lizzie if it was why would it have 12 wheels!!!

Pixar Cars Ornaments?
There was a picture of some Pixar Cars ornaments on here. Does anyone know who made them or where to get them? It had Sheriff, Woody, Mike, Hamm etc.


 * I don't really know what those would be, sorry. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 00:19, July 27, 2011 (UTC)

Re:Toy Story series
The Toy Story series really should warrant an article. It's the biggest Pixar franchise so far, and we cover a lot of stuff related to the Toy Story universe. Aaron pointed out that you said no. Why not? Just because we already have a lot of Toy Story stuff, doesn't mean we shouldn't have an article on it. In fact it means we SHOULD have an article! Look at other wikis, they have articles on their general subject. Look at Sonic News Network's article on its subject, or Pirates of the Caribbean Encyclopedia. The Toy Story franchise needs an article. If you disagree, go here. I feel that this wiki would be incomplete without this article. SeanWheeler 21:46, August 3, 2011 (UTC)
 * Hello there! I wasn't really saying "no", I was just suggesting to add the material that they wished to add to the pages that already existed.  If you feel strongly that a page like this is needed, then bring up the subject on the Toy Story talk page and see what everyone thinks.  Thanks! - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 23:31, August 3, 2011 (UTC)

Cars 2 Die-Cast Exclsusive!
Hey Ryan, I know this is pretty late to tell you but, are you going to the D23 Expo? If you don't know what is is, it's a Disney convention in Anaheim, California that's gotten pretty big. This year it'll be held from August 19-21. Almost all of the Pixar Brain Trust will be their this year talking about their upcoming projects! If you go to the expo this year you can get a freaking sweet Cars 2 exclusive die-cast. Check it out. I'm almost positive I'll go for at least one day to the expo and if I go, I'll definitely get the die-cast. There's also another sweet Pixar-exclusive of Woody from Toy Story if you're interested. And yes, this is true. --Aaron 20:12, August 9, 2011 (UTC)
 * Hey, yeah I saw that, but no, I'm not going. I live in PA.  Thanks, and have fun!! - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 09:27, August 10, 2011 (UTC)

6,000 edits!
Hey Ryan! Just wanted to congratulate you on making your 6,000th edit today. That's a lot for 3 years. Congrats! --Aaron 22:37, August 14, 2011 (UTC)
 * Thanks! Looks like you're on the same pace too!! :) - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 00:50, August 15, 2011 (UTC)
 * Not bad but i made 70 in a day try to beat that!!!
 * Yes, and you did so by editing my talk page over 50 times yesterday. I have done more than 70 in a day on numerous occasions, but this isn't an editing contest. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 09:34, August 17, 2011 (UTC)
 * Just forget about it please!

Cars 2 Die-Cast Line
Most of the cars i add are guesses but please do not erase them it took a lot of time and typeing to put all that up ok.
 * Hello. Yes, but don't put guesses up. They are clearly listed as "announced future releases". The page is not for guesses. Please remove the ones you are just guessing at. Thanks! - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 00:56, August 17, 2011 (UTC)
 * Also, if you could, please sign your responses! - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 00:56, August 17, 2011 (UTC)
 * sorry but no i like it being there
 * You like what being where? The guesses being on the die-cast page??? I will have to remove them myself if you do not. Thanks! - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 01:06, August 17, 2011 (UTC)
 * Yes the guesses but you dont know which the guesses are so you cant remove them.
 * Why are you being stubborn? I am asking you nicely. I will just remove them myself later. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 09:22, August 17, 2011 (UTC)
 * And again, please sign your replies. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 09:25, August 17, 2011 (UTC)
 * I removed the guesses now can you please tell me why the heck did you delete the [[Leland turbo(user) page that took me all night to create how would you feel like it if i did that to you
 * I deleted it because it has no purpose here and should not be here. What were you trying to do?  Please use your profile page to post anything about yourself. Once again, please sign your replies.  If you don't know how, just click the "Signature" button above the edit window (or use the 4 tildes option after your reply).

I think...
...That RaptorWiki is the most famous user on pixar wiki.
 * I seriously doubt that. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 00:59, August 17, 2011 (UTC)

thanks raptor
thanks for fixing the finn mcmissile problem what would you like me to create or edit cars 2 related things only please
 * You're welcome! As always, you are free to edit or create anything you want related to Pixar, if it doesn't already exist. Just please be mindful of other peoples' edits, and do your best to use correct grammar and punctuation! Thank you! - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 01:02, August 17, 2011 (UTC)
 * Sorry but im not gonna stop asking you till you tell what i need to edit or create for cars 2.
 * Then please remove the guesses from the Cars 2 Die-Cast Line page before I block the page from being edited. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 09:24, August 17, 2011 (UTC)

Bloopers
Hi Ryan, I just thought the readers would like Blooper videos added to the movie pages, I hope everyone enjoys them and that this will be exceptable. I'll be adding Monsters Inc soon. Daniel Macgregor 22:55, August 30, 2011 (UTC)
 * I'd only add a few. Thanks! - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 01:38, September 2, 2011 (UTC)

Can you make me an admin please?

Outtakes Article
Hi Ryan, I've decided to do a page completely about on the movie bloopers and outakes, I'm certain people would find it extremely interesting. I'm going to remove the blooper section of each of the three movies and base it all into one page and add the movies category to it. Ihope this will useful and that others will enjoy it. Daniel Macgregor 20:17, September 1, 2011 (UTC)

rex in danger
Hi Ryan, I just thought I'd let you know that the page entitled: "Rex in danger?" should be deleted. I created that page, then made a mistake with it, so I did a new one, a better one, not knowing that you could rename it at that time. It doesn't need to be there because there's already another one there. We shouldn't really have two of the same page on the wiki. It's just confusing. If you could, I'd be very grateful, because other users aren't understanding why I keep removing it from the Toy Story Treats category. It's a page that should be deleted. Thanks Daniel Macgregor 21:28, September 2, 2011 (UTC)
 * I deleted it. Thanks. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 21:59, September 2, 2011 (UTC)

Deletions
Grrrrrrrr why did you delete the pages I made?! Red Monstersmasher 21:16, September 18, 2011 (UTC)Red Monstersmasher


 * Because they were either empty pages, not needed or rumors/speculation. That is not what the Wiki is for. Thanks. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 22:00, September 18, 2011 (UTC)

Red Monstersmasher 15:25, September 24, 2011 (UTC)Dude,STOP DELETING EVERYTHING I PUT ON THIS WIKIA!!!!!!


 * Those were screenshots of your browser. Those are not something that should be on here. Also, those are not yet confirmed as something that will be released. They are prototypes. You could save the images directly, put them in the die-cast galleries on each character page, and label them as prototypes for Kmart Cars Day. Thanks. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 15:32, September 24, 2011 (UTC)
 * Red Monstersmasher 19:25, September 24, 2011 (UTC)Red Monstersmasher They are not prototypes because there was another picture and it had a kid playing with them and I have one question.How do you delete a page?
 * Trust me, they're prototypes for Kmart Cars Day in spring 2012. They have not been released. Admins (such as me and User:Dvcnut) are the only ones that can delete a page. Let us know if you need something deleted or mark it for deletion and we'll get to it. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 20:54, September 24, 2011 (UTC)
 * Red Monstersmasher 19:07, September 25, 2011 (UTC)Red Monstersmasher DUDE COME ON HOW COME YOU CAN ONLY DELETE PAGES!?And what do you mean by three times and you're out?
 * Only Administrators can delete pages. That's how it works on any Wiki. And it means if I warn you twice about edits, and then you mess up a third time, you will be blocked from this Wiki. Thanks. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) - Pixar Wikia Administrator 19:35, September 25, 2011 (UTC)
 * Hey please I just wanted to post one picture and please please please please please please please please please please please make me an administrator.Can you please please please make me an administrator?
 * Sorry, no, I can't. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) - Pixar Wikia Administrator 00:27, September 30, 2011 (UTC)
 * Red Monstersmasher 23:29, September 30, 2011 (UTC)Red Monstersmasher HOW COME?!
 * You need to calm down Red Monstersmasher. One, you've only made 30 edits & haven't even been on the wiki for a month, two, many of your edits have been undone & you have been warned about them, and three, all you've been doing in this conversation is arguing with Ryan, one of our admins. Ryan has already said no, so you just need to accept it. -Aaron (chat) 23:43, September 30, 2011 (UTC)

Badges
Congratulations on getting ahead of me on the wikia rank! After I was #1 for so long, I was wondering when somebody would beat me.....Crazyhead88 12:53, September 28, 2011 (UTC)
 * Thanks, but I don't really care about rank. I turned on that feature just to see what the badges were like, but it seems as if some people are just editing just to gain rank. I might just turn that feature back off to discourage editing for the sake of gaining rank. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) - Pixar Wikia Administrator 16:29, September 28, 2011 (UTC)
 * I turned it off, but I see that I still show up on the site-wide list Achievements page, bummer. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 17:17, September 28, 2011 (UTC)
 * I mean maybe I'll turn it off for the whole Pixar Wiki. After seeing the badges, they seem kind of pointless, and only encourage useless edits by people as well, I think, perhaps? - RaptorWiki (Ryan) - Pixar Wikia Administrator 18:57, September 28, 2011 (UTC)
 * Oh, I just figured it was some new wikia feature that was enabled automatically. Yea, I have no love for them and would not be upset if they went away. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 19:20, September 28, 2011 (UTC)

Umm, can I be an administator on the wiki? Funnyboy2963 11:13, September 29, 2011 (UTC)


 * Sorry, but no. You're one bad edit away from being blocked, remember? - RaptorWiki (Ryan) - Pixar Wikia Administrator 16:33, September 29, 2011 (UTC)

Red Monstersmasher 21:42, September 29, 2011 (UTC)Red Monstersmasher

Hi RaptorWiki! I have a question.Can you delete someone named BobaFett on the World of Cars Online Wikia? I want you to because he was cursing at me and it made me feel weird.Please please do it for me.


 * Hello. I don't have those rights from one Wiki to another. Sorry. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) - Pixar Wikia Administrator 00:27, September 30, 2011 (UTC)

Template:Film
Hello Ryan, I have noticed that the film template on the wiki is missing things I'd like to change/add to. The page was locked by Scarecroe, so Scott said to see an admin for changes on the history page. I was wondering if you would be kind enough to unlock the page. I am not going to just go ahead and change things, rather, copy the code text to put to it in the Sandbox, as I am unable to right now. When I am done, I will confront an admin about the changes, or put it on the talk page. Thank you. --Aaron (chat) 23:27, October 5, 2011 (UTC)
 * It's unlocked now. Go ahead and do what you want and let me know when done. Thanks! - RaptorWiki (Ryan) - Pixar Wikia Administrator 23:57, October 5, 2011 (UTC)
 * Thanks! I'll get back to you when I'm done. --Aaron (chat) 00:09, October 6, 2011 (UTC)
 * I have finished my changes. You can tell me what I should change, what you don't like, heck, you can tell me that you don't like any of it. --Aaron (chat) 01:42, October 6, 2011 (UTC)
 * Where did you put the temporary template? Or did you make a new one with a different name? - RaptorWiki (Ryan) - Pixar Wikia Administrator 01:49, October 6, 2011 (UTC)
 * I'm a bit confused, but for the template we're using I simply used " " and added in the text we use, for the revised template I used just code text, with the actual text used to make the template look like that if created or changed on the Sandbox Wiki. --Aaron (chat) 01:56, October 6, 2011 (UTC)
 * I think those couple additions are pretty good. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) - Pixar Wikia Administrator 00:31, October 7, 2011 (UTC)
 * Thanks. Does that mean it is ok to add these changes to the actual template? Do you think we should leave the bold-faced words? I have also invited Jeff to leave his opinion here. Thanks. --Aaron (chat) 00:48, October 7, 2011 (UTC)
 * I don't mind the bold. We'll see what Jeff has to say before changing the actual template. Oh, sorry to confuse you before. I was asking where you had the draft template located, and I didn't state it very clearly. I was looking for a Sandbox page on this wiki for it. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) - Pixar Wikia Administrator 00:50, October 7, 2011 (UTC)
 * I think I'm fine with the changes. One question is where does the budget number come from? I doubt that Disney or Pixar ever release that number, so it would come from an unofficial source? I know boxofficemojo has a budget figure, we could get both budget and box office revenues from there. Or, since it is unofficial should we leave that off? Otherwise it looks good, and I'm fine with you applying it to the current template. Thanks! --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 03:03, October 7, 2011 (UTC)
 * The budget number, which also comes from Box Office Mojo, was reported by the Los Angeles Times, and I will be getting the box office returns and budgets from there, unless another/better source provides it. --Aaron (chat) 03:10, October 7, 2011 (UTC)
 * Scratch that, I get the box office revenues and some budgets from Box Office Mojo, the other budgets came from the Los Angeles Times and The New York Times. I made the changes to the template, and I added the info into the film's pages. Thanks for the feedback! --Aaron (chat) 00:47, October 8, 2011 (UTC)
 * Did you use worldwide or domestic gross for box office? - RaptorWiki (Ryan) - Pixar Wikia Administrator 16:11, October 8, 2011 (UTC)
 * I used the worldwide gross revenue for box office. --Aaron (chat) 18:21, October 8, 2011 (UTC)

Achievements
Do you think we should disable Achievements? It seems when people are blocked they are more upset about losing their badges than the fact they can't edit anymore. I think it's leading to too many useless edits and behavior. Maybe they are the cause of all the issues we've been dealing with for the past month or so? --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 21:04, October 10, 2011 (UTC)
 * Like I said before, I was seriously thinking about it too. But there didn't seem to be too many problems with it for the past week or more, until the Red Monstersmasher incident. But I can turn it off to see if that helps. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) - Pixar Wikia Administrator 09:19, October 11, 2011 (UTC)
 * OK, thanks. Let's see if there's a backlash to it. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 12:24, October 11, 2011 (UTC)

User:Nosmoreswthenu block
Hey Raptor wiki, this is Nosmoreswthenu a few day ago i went to my parents house for dinner and before I left I forgot to turn off the computer my little Brother then hacked my account after I left,could you please undo the blocking thanks. (Cazyboy1q2w3e 18:07, October 14, 2011 (UTC)) :)
 * No, we will not lift the block. We set it for a month. At that time you can begin editing again. It is your responsibility to make sure someone else doesn't use your account, and you will be blocked if that account is making bad edits. Even today, using your new account, the first edit you made was full of mis-spellings. And that is also violating the Wikia multiple user account policy, so I have blocked that account indefinitely. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 18:55, October 14, 2011 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the response, Jeff. :) - RaptorWiki (Ryan) - Pixar Wikia/Terra Nova Wikia Administrator 00:10, October 15, 2011 (UTC)

Carlos Alazraqui in Planes
I'm pretty sure the article here I referenced about him playing El Chupacabra is legitimate. Bowser the Second 10:58, October 15, 2011 (UTC)
 * Not the point. The article doesn't talk much about the movie, nor his role in it. It only has one small line that mentions it.  Not useful. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) - Pixar Wikia/Terra Nova Wikia Administrator 11:09, October 15, 2011 (UTC)
 * Alright then, how about I email Mr. Alazraqui personally and ask him? I did the same to find out the actors for Shu Todoroki and the Sushi Chef.
 * I was looking incorrectly at what you did. It's all right.  I didn't notice you were using it as a source.  So it's ok.  I undid my last revision. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) - Pixar Wikia/Terra Nova Wikia Administrator 11:54, October 15, 2011 (UTC)
 * That's okay, but I ended up sending him the email anyways, so at least now we'll know for sure weather it is true or not. Bowser the Second 12:44, October 15, 2011 (UTC)
 * So I sent him the email and this is what he had to say about it. Bowser the Second 00:12, October 16, 2011 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the confirmation. I do apologize for my misunderstanding a few days ago. I've been sick for a few days, so I'm not thinking clearly! :) - RaptorWiki (Ryan) - Pixar Wikia/Terra Nova Wikia Administrator 12:34, October 16, 2011 (UTC)

Picture Categories
Is there a way to create categories to put pictures in, kind of like the way we put pages in? Then when we are searching for a photo, we could search for the category and get many photos that match. Right now, you have to find the file name from another page on the wiki and then type it in the box. It would help a great deal. Is there any way to do this? Crazyhead88 13:39, October 15, 2011 (UTC)
 * Well, Categories can be added to photos as is, but I don't know if we'd want to do that. You mean have a "Cars Images" category, "Toy Story Images" category, etc.? Jeff, what do you think? - RaptorWiki (Ryan) - Pixar Wikia/Terra Nova Wikia Administrator 18:37, October 15, 2011 (UTC)
 * I thought we had this discussion about image categories a while ago? Didn't we decide it wasn't necessary - for instance, most of the images from Cars 2 is on the main film page? And someone went through and removed the category from all the images. But I'm actually not opposed to the idea. I don't think all the images will get on the main film page and it makes that page sooooo long. And I see some value in being able to view all the images related to a film. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 21:01, October 15, 2011 (UTC)
 * Indeed, we did. Right here : Category Talk:Cars 2 Images. However, I still think it could be useful. Actually the images are getting completely lost... There are spreaded all across the pages, sometimes it becomes difficult to know if one file has already been uploaded...Gray Catbird 21:49, October 15, 2011 (UTC)
 * How about we just try it with one film once to see how it goes? - RaptorWiki (Ryan) - Pixar Wikia/Terra Nova Wikia Administrator 21:51, October 15, 2011 (UTC)
 * When I look back at that conversation, I remember thinking we were discussing a PAGE, not a category. And that's how my comments read as well. I see now that it was for a category, but I don't think I realized it at the time. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) - Pixar Wikia/Terra Nova Wikia Administrator 21:53, October 15, 2011 (UTC)
 * Sounds good. Should we go with Cars 2 Images? I can create it. Should I create a parent Images category too? --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 22:57, October 15, 2011 (UTC)
 * Sure, a Cars 2 Images category would be fine to try out. Doesn't really matter which film to use. I wouldn't even make it complete; just a dozen pictures or so at first to see if we think it's a good idea. I wouldn't even make a parent category yet. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) - Pixar Wikia/Terra Nova Wikia Administrator 01:20, October 16, 2011 (UTC)
 * OK, I created the category and populated a few images in it. Category is Category:Cars 2 Images. Let see what people think. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 04:01, October 16, 2011 (UTC)
 * I think that will work pretty well, actually. What do you think? It's better than making an article for them, of course, like I had been thinking that someone was asking about previously! - RaptorWiki (Ryan) - Pixar Wikia/Terra Nova Wikia Administrator 12:30, October 16, 2011 (UTC)
 * Yes, I like it too. I think we should keep it. I will create categories for the other films. Thanks. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 17:18, October 16, 2011 (UTC)
 * Thank you for adding these. When you add a picture to a page, can you search for a category and get all the images in that category as a result? Crazyhead88 19:10, October 16, 2011 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure I understand your question. But if you click on an image, then click on the little icon in the lower right corner (image details), it will show you the category that image is in (if in one). You can click on the category, which will then show you all images in that category. Also, once the caches are updated (probably tomorrow), you can search for the Images category, which will show you all the categories, and if you click on a category that will show you the images in the category. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 19:59, October 16, 2011 (UTC)

Featured on CC staff blog; info about quiz
Dear Ryan,

Recently a blog post by staffmember Xean pointed into the direction of a quiz available on this wiki.

I am impressed by this quiz. Would love to create such a thing on a wiki i am admin at. Can you share with me how you (or others) created that?

Thanks in advance!

WikiPim (available for talk on CC, S&P or WikiXP)


 * Hello. I actually do not remember who created it.  Perhaps Jeff does.  Jeff? - RaptorWiki (Ryan) - Pixar Wikia/Terra Nova Wikia Administrator 01:10, October 22, 2011 (UTC)
 * Yea, Adam Blumenfeld (or members of his staff) created the quiz. You can read our original conversation regarding the quiz. He doesn't have a user page on the Pixar wikia so I'd check community central. Thanks. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 05:35, October 22, 2011 (UTC)
 * Thanks, Jeff! - RaptorWiki (Ryan) - Pixar Wikia/Terra Nova Wikia Administrator 10:40, October 22, 2011 (UTC)

Video Game Voice Actors
Since when did we stop crediting characters their voice actors in video games? I don't really see any reason why not. Bowser the Second 13:05, October 21, 2011 (UTC)
 * We did this quite a while ago. Since the video games are not produced by Pixar, we decided to include nothing but one single page on them, and that's all. No additional character pages, no additional credits on existing character pages, no categories for actors or characters from video games, etc.  Thanks. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) - Pixar Wikia/Terra Nova Wikia Administrator 19:50, October 21, 2011 (UTC)

Can you please accept my appoligue because I accidently put an Air Mater summary in Adult Humor when I was supposed to put it in Mistakes Found in Pixar Films.Sorry RaptorWiki.


 * Hello. Did you fix the mistake?  Thanks. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) - Pixar Wikia/Terra Nova Wikia Administrator 01:03, October 25, 2011 (UTC)

Question from kate.moon
Hey, if you get a second, take a look at my talk page. Kate is offering to help with any color changes or other changes we might want? I don't know about color changes or captions on the pictures. But what about a poll? That might be fun - now that Pixar has a number of announced films that could be an interesting one. Let me know if you have any feedback, or feel free to comment directly on my talk page. Thanks. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 03:41, November 8, 2011 (UTC)
 * I think I like the Wiki colors as is. And can't we already create polls? Yeah, just use the poll tag. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) - Pixar Wikia/Terra Nova Wikia Administrator 09:49, November 8, 2011 (UTC)
 * Cool, I didn't know about the poll tag. Thanks for the feedback! I agree, we should leave things as-is. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 13:27, November 8, 2011 (UTC)

Didn't mean to
Um RaptorWiki I accidently created a category called Dece because I was trying to put Rod "Torque" Redline in the Deceased Characters category but I accidently created the Dece category.Sorry.FunnyDude1234 14:36, November 10, 2011 (UTC)FunnyDude1234
 * Actually, the category wasn't created. You created a link to it but the category never was created. Your change was rolled back so everything is fine. thanks. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 15:16, November 10, 2011 (UTC)

JeffHamilton
Thanks i realy dont think the lemons are all that bad just mistrated.

How do you delet something you don`t like?


 * You shouldn't delete something merely because you don't "like" it. If it is incorrect, poorly stated, etc., an edit can be "undone" by clicking on this in the History of the article. Or you can edit the article as usual, and remove the bad content manually.  If you mean deleting an article, then you can't.  Only an admin can delete an article.  Mark such articles that need to be deleted with the  tag.  Also, please sign your messages with ~ .  This will allow your signature to appear.  Thanks. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) - Pixar Wikia/Terra Nova Wikia Administrator 12:11, November 23, 2011 (UTC)

A little help please
Hi RaptorWiki! It is me FunnyDude1234. Hey, um can you show me around and help me be a better wiki user?

FunnyDude1234 12:23, November 23, 2011 (UTC)FunnyDude1234


 * Hello. I'm not sure what you mean by "show you around", but if you want to improve your editing skills, just look at what others are doing and pay attention to what is deleted. Be sure to use proper grammar and check your spelling. Make sure the information you are posting is correct, and do not use speculation. Always use the "Preview" button before publishing, in order to check your work. Then double-check your edit by viewing the page after publishing. If you have any specific questions, feel free to ask! - RaptorWiki (Ryan) - Pixar Wikia/Terra Nova Wikia Administrator 12:46, November 23, 2011 (UTC)

Babyface
I've seen this character also referred to as "Babyhead". What do official sources call it? ▫  Sir ISS   talk 02:09, December 6, 2011 (UTC)
 * I'm actually not sure of an official source for the name. Maybe some else here does?...Anyone? - RaptorWiki (Ryan) - Pixar Wikia/Terra Nova Wikia/Grimm Wikia Administrator 02:48, December 6, 2011 (UTC)
 * I didn't find anything in the Toy Story audio commentary, but I did find a picture of a Babyface toy from Thinkway Toys, referred to as "Baby Face". Others refer to him as "Babyface" (one word), but I think it is two seperate words. Don't you think? --Aaron (chat) 04:43, December 6, 2011 (UTC)

Is that all I had to do, upload a picture of some merchandise? Now, I'm gonna have to get all nerdy! Anyway, the reason I thought this is that in the Ultimate Toy Story Sticker Book from DK Books (which are usually pretty reliable), it says Babyhead. Far more likely for some toy company to make a mistake, no? ▫  Sir ISS   talk 13:48, December 6, 2011 (UTC)

Can we at least add the name in there on the page? Try looking it up on Google as "Toy Story" Babyhead, if you don't believe me. ▫  Sir ISS   talk 13:50, December 6, 2011 (UTC)
 * So we have merchandise that shows two different names. Yes, merchandise is more likely to be incorrect, but there may not be anything else to go by. I wonder what the page name was created from. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) - Pixar Wikia/Terra Nova Wikia/Grimm Wikia Administrator 14:03, December 6, 2011 (UTC)

User Pages
I couldn't help but notice that you are able to edit other people's profile pages. Is there any way for the user to be able to prohibit other people editing their pages? Crazyhead88 02:57, December 6, 2011 (UTC)
 * Not sure. Never looked for that option. By the way, whose Profile Page did you see me edit? - RaptorWiki (Ryan) - Pixar Wikia/Terra Nova Wikia/Grimm Wikia Administrator 03:36, December 6, 2011 (UTC)
 * I didn't mean that you are editing other people's pages, it's just that anyone is able to. I worded it wrong. It does seem a little weird that anyone can edit other people's pages, which is kind of a safety reason. Crazyhead88 13:33, December 6, 2011 (UTC)
 * Well if someone changes your profile page, just undo it. There shouldn't be any issues, other than taking the time to undo it. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) - Pixar Wikia/Terra Nova Wikia/Grimm Wikia Administrator 14:12, December 6, 2011 (UTC)
 * Okay. Thanks! Crazyhead88 00:02, December 7, 2011 (UTC)

Image Categories
You guys don't categorize images here? Just wondering, because it makes the entire list of images easier to access if somebody in the future is looking for a specific picture. I am used to this from working on other wikis, that's all. Is there any reason other than nobody wants to do it? It's a lot of work, to be sure. ▫  Sir ISS   talk 23:20, December 6, 2011 (UTC)
 * We recently started doing it, yes. We felt it wasn't necessary, but nothing wrong with doing it either, so we started doing it. Many are not categorized yet, but most of the categories exist, based upon the movies they are from/based upon. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) - Pixar Wikia/Terra Nova Wikia/Grimm Wikia Administrator 23:57, December 6, 2011 (UTC)
 * I have done some... Well in fact, a lot of work in categorizing images... There are actually 234 images in the Cars 2 category, and still, I have only added the official ones (I was wondering if it was necessary to add the non-official ones ?) Gray Catbird 01:18, December 7, 2011 (UTC)
 * Well, all images on here should be able to be categorized, or else they shouldn't even be on here :) - RaptorWiki (Ryan) - Pixar Wikia/Terra Nova Wikia/Grimm Wikia Administrator 01:26, December 7, 2011 (UTC)
 * Ok, that makes sense ! I will do it then. But still there are some images that are of bad quality... I guess we just need to find a higher resolution...

Okay, just so I know. I'll try to help out. Gray, as long as there's a Miscellanous category, if something is questionable, it could sorted into there. Then, if someone debates it being in there, it could be moved later (or the one who objects to it being in there could move it). ▫  Sir ISS   talk 01:30, December 7, 2011 (UTC)


 * Great ! Thanks for helping, we won't be too much to categorize all these images. Gray Catbird 12:48, December 7, 2011 (UTC)

Unfortunately, something's messed with my C drive, and I can no longer access it, so that's gonna be it for now when it comes to uploading new images. Fortunately, I've got all my images backed up somewhere, but it's going to take a while. I'll try to continue categorizing, though, but I'm sure there will be quite a few I'll miss. Anybody know where the list of image files is located? That would make things a bit easier. ▫  Sir ISS   talk 18:28, December 7, 2011 (UTC)


 * What list of images files ? You have the Special:NewFiles page, which lists all images by upload date, and give the pages on which they appear. There is also the Special:UncategorizedFiles page, that lists uncategorized files. But the problem with that category is that it lists many unused files, that include duplicates (you can see the list of unused images on the Special:UnusedFiles page)... Gray Catbird 18:56, December 7, 2011 (UTC)

Talk page
JeffHamilton 23:04, December 11, 2011 (UTC)this is JeffHamilton and i was wondering how do you start a talk page.


 * There is a link at the top right of each article page. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) - Pixar Wikia/Terra Nova Wikia/Grimm Wikia Administrator 23:17, December 11, 2011 (UTC)

I have a problem with you
You seem not to appreciate any of my work at all. You deleted my Black Hugos page which I had to recreate and you erased all the cars with the category Crew Chiefs which I will not waste my time to fix please stop or I will report you to Jeff. Leland turbo 00:19, December 18, 2011 (UTC)
 * Instead of getting angry at Ryan, perhaps you should ask why he is reverting/deleting your work (although he has told you already regarding many of your edits). We don't go around deleting pages for the fun of it. If the page has very little information, or is based on rumors or opinions, or if the information could be added to an existing page then it will likely get deleted. Learn from these deletions/reverts so you can make better edits. Note, you have been warned many times regarding your edits and are close to being blocked permanently.
 * And I'm not sure why you'd report Ryan to me, he is a sysadmin. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 22:37, December 18, 2011 (UTC)


 * As Jeff stated, I've told you why things are being deleted. And trust me, I'd rather not have to fix your edits...it takes a lot of time. Please just clean up your act. You are so close to the permanent ban, which I'd rather not do if I don't have to, but so much of my time just gets wasted fixing things. As Jeff also stated, just learn from the fixes that are done, and what I told you previously, and there won't be any problems. If you think something may get removed, etc., then ask us before you do it first, so you don't get upset about it.  I also don't understand what reporting an admin to an admin would do, nor why you would do something like that, even if I wasn't an admin.  There's no reason to do such a thing.  Please, just learn, and move forward.  Thanks. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) - Pixar Wikia/Terra Nova Wikia/Grimm Wikia Administrator 03:43, December 19, 2011 (UTC)

VERY IMPORTANT! PLEASE READ!
I was at my local Navarro yesterday and they had pit stop launchers of Francesco Bernoulli and Raoul ÇaRoule so I added them to the Cars 2 Die-Cast Line and btw I am not lying I don't care if you can't find any photos but this is the new year and they're releaseing new cars and it will be harder to find them at just the beginning of the year so people will not be able to put them on ebay or any of that stuff. Leland turbo 17:31, January 2, 2012 (UTC)


 * Yeah, I see them both on ebay. But try to not use international packaging images. Thanks. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) - Pixar Wikia/Terra Nova Wikia/Grimm Wikia Administrator 19:29, January 2, 2012 (UTC)

Undoing my edits
Why did you undo the edits I made, I only changed the pic and made a gallery. There was nothing wrong with it. Could you please change it back?? <span id="User:Gracey91" class="plainlinks">New Captain (talk • contribs • count) 07:02, January 9, 2012 (UTC)


 * There was nothing wrong with the way it was - the main image was fine the way it was. Plus you removed images from the article body and moved them to a gallery; there was no need for that. You were undoing the work of someone else, perfectly fine work. Please don't make changes just for the sake of making changes.  Make sure the changes are necessary.  Thanks. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 13:09, January 9, 2012 (UTC)

Ok but the changes wern't much. Plus I think the photos I put in the template were better than those one in before. They were still on the page, which is why I made a gallery to put all the photos in. <span id="User:Gracey91" class="plainlinks">New Captain (talk • contribs • count) 05:12, January 10, 2012 (UTC)

Why add them again?
Hi, how are you doing? I hope the gallery I made for Woody was okay. Was someone else trying to add more, because I left the changes you made alone. I felt Woody needed his own gallery since Buzz had one that was filled with pictures. Happy to keep helping with any pages I can. Daniel Macgregor 16:26, January 9, 2012 (UTC)


 * Yes, the gallery is fine. The "Why add them again" was referring to all of the categories being added again in one of the edits. I removed the redundant categories.  Thanks! - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 00:11, January 10, 2012 (UTC)

Unwanted articles
Hi Ryan, I just thought I'd let you know that "Wolfman329" is making another page for "Mr. Incredible" when there is no need and adding it to the character page. Either he doesn't realise there is one or he's just making up his own.Daniel Macgregor 23:22, January 15, 2012 (UTC)

Movie Credits
Can you help me with the credits on my X-Men Movies Wiki. I just need help because I don't really want to watch the long credits and write it down. <span id="User:New Captain" class="plainlinks">New Captain (talk • contribs • count) 10:18, February 29, 2012 (UTC)


 * I'm sorry, but I don't have time for that. Why not ask someone else to help who also edits your Wiki? - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 11:55, February 29, 2012 (UTC)

I'm not asking for you to do it for me, but I just want to know how you did it?? Because my only option is to watch the full credits which I don't want to do unless there is another way. <span id="User:New Captain" class="plainlinks">New Captain (talk • contribs • count) 05:38, March 1, 2012 (UTC)


 * Surely the credits are listed online somewhere. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 10:02, March 1, 2012 (UTC)
 * You should ask to User:Dvcnut; it's him that made these full credits pages.--Gray Catbird 18:36, March 1, 2012 (UTC)
 * It may be difficult to find the credits. I was able to get them for some of the Pixar films because I am registered with Disney PR as a journalist, so I have access to their website where they post their marketing assets, including credits. Even with them, which come in a PDF file, it takes me a few hours to convert them to the wiki format. Depending on how particular you are, you might want to just link to the appropriate IMDb page. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 04:14, March 2, 2012 (UTC)

I went to the IMDb page and get most of them, thanks very much, I still have to get more for I movie still and I have only done one movie. If anyone could help me, that would be great but I know your on this wiki and probably others so thats fine. By the way, not many other people edit so I'm still trying to get more editors. :) <span id="User:New Captain" class="plainlinks">New Captain (talk • contribs • count) 09:02, March 8, 2012 (UTC)

Mater
Mater IS NOT DIM WITTED! Mater's this genius. But he has this brilliant idiotic cover. He wants people to think he's this goofy idiot. That's his cover to be an idiot. He's truly no dummy. Can't you see he's JUST pretending to be an idiot to fool others? Come on, cut the guy some slack. He's had a horrible past and he's been emotionally abused/laughed at and made fun of all his life. Please don't call him an idiot again. When he was just a baby, he was severely mistreated and neglected. That's why he's confused about life. That's why he's messed up in the head and can't think right. That's why he's frightened all the time when others yell at him. And that's why someone rescued him and took him to Radiator Springs. He lives there for a reason. BELIEVE ME i know it all.

 * Ah, now I see. But I didn't write that, and no one said he is an idiot.  But please don't remove it again, because it is correct. Thanks. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 02:46, March 2, 2012 (UTC)

Hi RaptorWiki. How´re u? Look, Mater isn´t the main protagonist of Cars 2. Jhon Lasseter said McQueen and Mater are the co-protagonist. That was in a intervew here on Colombia beacuse on of the Lightning´s Movie woman is a Colombian. Here in Latin America the Mater´s name is TOM MATE. I´´m not telliing that is his real name. Just i think it´s a good trivia. Is good see how the people watch to other characters different. Some in the name, some in the color or others details That depends from the place. For example, in Italia Mater´s name is really different. Is Carl Attrezzi Jajajaja. That is other good trivia What do you think? We leave to McQueen and Mater like TWO co-PROTAGONISTS and the Mater´s Latin American Spanish trivia? I Wait your Answer Angelo!


 * Hello. Please provide a link to him saying this, after the film was completed. Thanks. Even still, he probably wasn't being technical in what he was saying, so it probably does not matter. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 17:07, March 2, 2012 (UTC)

Trailer
Hey there, me again, would you mind if I added this trailer to the main page? If you don't, where would you prefer it to be?

Talk:Russ Gremlin
If you get time, can you take a look at this talk page? --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 23:52, April 2, 2012 (UTC)

McQueen and Mater are the Co-protagonists of Cars 2.
Hey man, there are twoe referencees, one of them is from the WRITER AND DIRECTOR JOHN LASSETER that McQueen and Mater are CO-PROTAGONISTS of Cars 2. Please, why undo the page if that´s true?

Hi, Raptor Wiki. McQueen and Mater are the two co-protagonists of Cras two. i put two references, one of them is from the writer and director of Cars 2 John Lasseter. I corrected alredy. Please, don´t undo, IT´S TRUE. Thank you!


 * Not proof. Just being main stars doesn't mean both protagonists. Do NOT undo. Leave the info on the talk page there and see what happens. Thanks. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 22:06, April 13, 2012 (UTC)

can you upload a picture of blast off buzz lightyear in his box? thank you

Help Delete
Hi! I'm Cars4ever and I need help, please. I have a question: why sometimes the delete tag doesn't work? Now the page Template:Delete is empty. I pu the delete tag on a page and the tag doens't appear. The category Candidates for deletion now has very minus pages or links than before! Why there is this problem????

Cars4ever 18:34, May 30, 2012 (UTC)
 * I just tested the Delete template and had no problem with it. Are you using it correctly? It should be at the top of the page. If you're still having problems, let us know which page it is and we can look at it. Thanks. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 23:34, May 30, 2012 (UTC)


 * I also checked it yesterday right after I received your message, and it was working fine. Just didn't get a chance to reply right away. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 09:03, May 31, 2012 (UTC)

Brave Cast Update
There is an update on the cast of Brave: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1217209/fullcredits#cast

I don't really know how to refrence it on the Brave page so I wondered if you could or so. However for the Nursemaid Maudie (who the Triplets steal the sweets from), it says there are 2 voice actresses but I don't know who is the actual voice. JaDangerz 02:22, June 17, 2012 (UTC)

Newt
Hi, I have a question. PixarFan put Newt pages in Candidates for deletion, because he think that pages of a cancelled film are useless. What do you think? Is his teory true? I think that Newt pages aren't useless, because they are part of the Pixar informations.

Cars4ever 12:44, June 28, 2012 (UTC)


 * Since the film was canceled, all relevant information to it should be gathered and put on the Newt page. Other pages should be deleted, but the important information from them should not be. Thanks. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 16:58, June 28, 2012 (UTC)

Comic-Con
Greetings! You may already know, but Pixar will be involved with Comic-Con this year. Wikia will have a physical presence at the 'Con once again, and we've created this badge:

to remind users of this, and provide them with a link to Comic-Con Wiki. There, we will be updating live for the duration of the event with images, info, and exclusives for those users who are unable to be there in person. Would you be willing to allow this badge on the main page here (hopefully at the top of the right column) until the conclusion of the event? Please hit me up on my TALK PAGE and let me know either way so I can add it, or make a note that you've declined affiliation. You're welcome to add it yourself using the code above, but please drop me a note as well so I can track which wikis are participating. Thank you for your time! :)

 * Sure, I don't have any problem with it. Let me have Jeff have his say as well, before you put it up though.  Thanks. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 03:26, July 6, 2012 (UTC)


 * Ah, I see now. Unlike Message Wall, talk pages don't inform of new messages unless it's on your own page. It seems like if you are "following" the page it should inform, but it doesn't always do so - and then I've got a few pages that continue to inform when other people leave messages that have nothing to do with me even though I've "unfollowed" them. :P Anyway, thanks for looking into it - hopefully we can get it up by Wednesday when Comic-Con starts. :)

 * I really don't think Jeff would have any problem with it either. I don't know why he hasn't responded yet.  Go ahead and put it up, I'd say.  Thanks! - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 19:42, July 7, 2012 (UTC)
 * Sorry I'm so late to this, was out of town with no internet access, and then when I got back I was overloaded with emails and my notifications of new messages got lost in the deluge. Hopefully my tardiness didn't delay getting the badge put up on the site. Thanks for moving ahead with it. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 13:15, July 9, 2012 (UTC)

Cars
No problem, I'll talk to her about it tomorrow when she comes in. You're right, in that it doesn't seem like there needs to be 3 of them, but all three have active active admins and communities, and all three have several hundred pages to sort through. Have to see what the team thinks, it's a busy week with comic con though, so progress on it may not happen right away. Two of them have "broken" main pages, and at least one of them looks like it might be in violation of the terms agreement... Also, to give proper attribution to this (or any other wiki) when bringing pages over from it, the import/export tools need to be used in order to grab the edit history with all the user names and their contributions.
 * http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/xraydeltaone/images/b/b2/Siggy4.png @ (profile)•(talk)•(email) 22:04, July 8, 2012 (UTC)
 * Ah, ok. Wasn't sure how that exporting worked.  Makes sense that the edit history should come along.  All three of them are in some sort of disarray.  I hope that's all there is, just the three of them....three's bad enough.  Thanks! - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 00:37, July 9, 2012 (UTC)

Erased page?

 * First of all, what page are you talking about? I don't see any page created by that account that I deleted (yet).  Second, why post the same message above twice?  Thirdly, it is against policy to have a second account. Thanks. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 09:22, July 9, 2012 (UTC)

anser me this why do you want to delite all my pages? playtime now you want to get rid of playtime buzz why? i made them i wanted them to come true! Wf72 09:25, July 9, 2012 (UTC)

 * Hello. Please answer my original questions.  Also, the pages you just listed are poorly written and most likely unnecessary. The page you speak of can be found here: User:Woody fan 72 - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 16:56, July 9, 2012 (UTC)

Bad words and insult
Hi, I wanna tell you that the user Shy guy yellow wrote "S***T Pixar Wiki" on his talk page. Ithought that insult a Wiki is a very bad thing so I decide to report it as a spam.

You're welcome. There may still be some stuff that is mixed up because there were so many different people editing the same pages, but hopefully I got the worst of it. The people doing this hit a bunch of wikis tonight unfortunately. -- <font color="Blue">Wendy (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 02:27, July 14, 2012 (UTC)

Some informations
Hi Raptor! I'm writing 'cause I want some informations. First: recently I wrote a message on Jeff's talk page, can you look it? Second: the user Captairadious has uploaded various images with "real Cars characters' body), I noticed that some of these images were in Candidates for deletion, so I put all these images in that category; I was wrong? Third: The page "Talk: Cars Diecast-Line" is in the category "ASDA Hauler" that was previously deleted. I tried to remove the page from the category, but inside the edit, there wasn't the space for the options of the categories. Fourth: I read my message for the "Delete Help" on your talk page; the problem was ended in one day, but it was the second time I watched the problem. The first time it took 4 days to end. The problem was in the tag. The page "Template:Delete" was empty and If you wanted to put a page in Candidates for deletion, you had to add the page to the category, 'cause if you put the delete tag, on the page didn't change anything, apart this wrote "Delete".

P.S. Sorri for the errors but my first language is Italian ;)

Cars4ever 09:44, July 14, 2012 (UTC)


 * Hello. Thanks for the message. First, I don't think User:Geosworld2011 is a spammer, although I did delete some of the images you mentioned. Second, yes, it was fine to put the images of real cars in Candidates for Deletion that were uploaded by User:Captainradious. Third, I removed the category from the Talk:Cars Die-Cast Line page. Fourth, I don't understand your question. It almost looks like you're using the incorrect tags? The tag should have "{{", not "RaptorWiki (Ryan) 14:55, July 14, 2012 (UTC)


 * I don't know how the problem is started. I think that somebody deleted all the content from the page "Template:Delete", I think, but I'm not sure. In the page already apperaed a wrote similar to this "Template:Delete, error tag not found".
 * Cars4ever 09:54, July 15, 2012 (UTC)
 * No, nobody has changed the page. I just checked its history. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 13:06, July 15, 2012 (UTC)


 * Ah, now I think that is a software error. I don't remember if I saw that page on Pixar Wiki or on World of Cars Wiki.

Cars Wikis
Hey Raptor,

So sorry for getting back to you late, it's been a crazy time at Wikia, what with Comic-Con et all. I would have no problem asking the admins (or if you wanted to ask yourself) if they wanted to merge the wikis together. The only problem is that a couple of those wikis are rather large and may not want to merge the content together. What are your thoughts?

http://images3.wikia.nocookie.net/sixbitsnonethewiser/images/0/07/Kate_03.png (talk) 17:28, July 16, 2012 (UTC)


 * Well, a lot of what is on those wikis is the same content. It is a waste of space, time and resources. Editors shouldn't be seeing that many of the same thing on Wikia, and then have to choose which site to edit. It's not fair to the editors, nor the readers of the Wikia sites. I'm betting a few of those wikis are large because they copied content from both here and from one another. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 18:34, July 16, 2012 (UTC)

I totally see your point, and I agree that it's a confusing user experience to find separate Cars Wikis. Have you talked to any of the admins on those wikis?

http://images3.wikia.nocookie.net/sixbitsnonethewiser/images/0/07/Kate_03.png (talk) 21:16, July 25, 2012 (UTC)


 * No, I have not, yet. Maybe I'll try that and see what happens. I expect backlash on any mention of merging wikis. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 21:41, July 25, 2012 (UTC)

I do have a couple of suggestions on giving credit back to Pixar Wiki. We can make a Pixar-based webring to put on all the Pixar topic wikis or ask the wikis to link back to Pixar Wiki if they have the exact same content.

What do you think?

http://images3.wikia.nocookie.net/sixbitsnonethewiser/images/0/07/Kate_03.png (talk) 00:09, July 26, 2012 (UTC)


 * That sounds fine with me. I'm just more concerned with there being multiples of the same thing out there; I'm not so concerned with giving credit to this wiki. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 09:11, July 26, 2012 (UTC)

OK, basically no response after a few weeks from the admins of those other wikis.... - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 09:31, August 10, 2012 (UTC)


 * Still no response, Kate. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 17:32, January 26, 2013 (UTC)

Hi Raptor ! I happen to be an admin on the "World of Cars Wiki" (although I'm really not an active editor...) and I don't think the folks over there got your message. Last October, that wiki was taken over by new users. I'm pretty sure they are not aware you posted a message on the talk page of the wiki's founder, inactive since one year... --Gray Catbird (talk) 21:06, January 26, 2013 (UTC)


 * Can you please copy my message to whoever are the active admins there, please? Thanks! - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 14:13, January 27, 2013 (UTC)


 * I think we are done on moving information like photos and descriptions on the pages on Pixar Cars Wiki onto World of Cars Wiki, so I think Pixar Cars Wiki is ready to be removed, and keep World of Cars Wiki. --Lightening McQueen (talk) 17:44, November 13, 2013 (UTC)

There is also Pixar World Of Cars Wiki, made by Cars4ever. I don't know about if it should be merged. I have been making a few edits on stuff that need sorting out, and it will be hard work for me to get pages of all of the characters and others. --Lightening McQueen (talk) 17:56, February 4, 2013 (UTC)


 * See my response in the other wiki. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 22:20, February 4, 2013 (UTC)

Also, yesterday, a user called Colindavis had made another wiki of Cars Race-O-Rama. Now there are two wikis about Cars Race-O-Rama: --Lightening McQueen (talk) 14:26, February 17, 2013 (UTC)
 * Cars race o Rama game Wiki (the one by Colindavis)
 * Cars Race-o-Rama Wiki


 * There's nothing we can do about it, apparently. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 23:04, February 17, 2013 (UTC)

What's happened with the images??!!
Hi Raptor! I found another bug. I saw that the files in the page "Special:NewFiles" has a big bug. The images are seen in a bad qaulity. I can't explain the proble, so look at the page please!

Thanks Cars4ever (talk) 15:31, July 18, 2012 (UTC)


 * That page is not something editable. The page is just there for convenience, not for optimum viewing. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 16:57, July 18, 2012 (UTC)

Diecast
Why did you delete my modifies to the page Cars 2 Die-Cast Line? I think that they weren't bad modifies.

Cars4ever (talk) 13:47, July 19, 2012 (UTC)


 * Because they were incorrect. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 16:31, July 19, 2012 (UTC)


 * Why? There was the section "Playsets" and I put into this section the playsets for 1:55 scale diecast models, for example, were was the problem?
 * Cars4ever (talk) 17:31, July 19, 2012 (UTC)


 * Because they aren't actually die-casts. They are only plastic. And Crabby is not part of this Mattel series. It is a Disney Store item. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 23:14, July 19, 2012 (UTC)


 * But, if you look, the playsets are for DIE-CAST (not plastic).
 * Cars4ever (talk) 15:48, July 20, 2012 (UTC)


 * I know what they might be used FOR, but it's what they are made OF. If I started adding in all the Playsets they made that did not include a die-cast vehicle, it would be a major undertaking to find them all. Besides, nothing says what they are FOR, is there? They can be used for anything. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 16:21, July 20, 2012 (UTC)


 * But ALL the playsets are made of plastic, and they include a die-cast model.
 * Cars4ever (talk) 16:35, July 20, 2012 (UTC)


 * No, most do not include a die-cast model. Most include a plastic model, if any. The included model (if any) is what determines if it is included here. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 16:49, July 20, 2012 (UTC)


 * Are you sure that it is a plastic model? Very often the !:55 Scale models are made of die-cast. And then, the section "transporters" had the car transporters, that often include a die-cast model, they are similar to the playsets. And then, you say that the playsets are made of die-cast, that is impossible. Can a playset be made of metal? Check your answer: "I know what they might be used FOR, but it's what they are made OF. If I started adding in all the Playsets they made that did not include a die-cast vehicle, it would be a major undertaking to find them all. Besides, nothing says what they are FOR, is there? They can be used for anything."
 * Cars4ever (talk) 17:18, July 20, 2012 (UTC)


 * Yes, most models included with the playsets are plastic, except for the few I have listed. And no, I didn't say the actual playset was made of metal. The playsets that are listed have die-cast metal cars with them, and that is why they are listed. They are only listed to indicate what package the die-cast came in. No die-cast, no listing. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 03:08, July 21, 2012 (UTC)


 * Hi! I'm writing to ask a question: and these diecast model? Look --> http://www.takefiveaday.com/2011/07/27/mattel-disney-pixar-cars-2-diecast-leyland-turbo-almost-real/. These are old diecasts, and I think that they are now out of prduction. In this model Celine Dephare, that here is called "Chevron" or "Parisian Headlights Vendor" has a body completely different from the actual diecast model and the car seen in the movie. I don't know if these diecasts are fake or they are real diecast models from Mattel. In your opinion, can they be added at the page Cars 2 Diecast Line?
 * Cars4ever - World of Cars Wiki, Pixar Wiki - (talk) 14:33, July 30, 2012 (UTC)


 * Those aren't real. The article even says this.  I do read TFAD all the time. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 16:39, July 30, 2012 (UTC)

Why did you deleted the Marsk page??!! Be sure that this character isn't an invented characters --> http://www.pixar.com/features_films/CARS#Cars_Home/detail/1901/internal/2066?ajax=2/1.

Cars4ever (talk) 09:21, July 21, 2012 (UTC)


 * Because it was marked for deletion by one of our most trusted editors. Also, it was poorly written anyway. Your link does not work, at least right now. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 11:12, July 21, 2012 (UTC)


 * First: might the user don't know Marsk. Seocnd: Also Giulia and Zil have a poorly written. Third: on my computer the link works.
 * Cars4ever (talk) 11:33, July 21, 2012 (UTC)
 * And also, Radiator Springs is next to Willy's Butte and Stanley's Oasis. The city isn't next to the Ornament Valley. Radiator Springs is IN the Ornament Valley! Why do you hate my work?
 * Cars4ever (talk) 11:35, July 21, 2012 (UTC)
 * The link you are giving does not work, and I failed to get it directly on Pixar.com, but if I recall correctly, it shows the image of the "Marsk" boat in the section of "Lemons", right ? Now I see why you said he was a lemon... Nevertheless, I don't think there's enough information to make a page because: First: Despite Pixar.com adding the image in a lemon section, nothing suggest the boat is a lemon; he looks like a normal container ship, which could have very likely be designed for the deleted sequence in Calais. It's written nowhere he's working for the lemons. Second: Marsk is an allusion to Maersk, which has container shipping activity; therefore, it is unlikely it is the boat's name, but the one of the company he works for. Gray Catbird (talk) 12:44, July 21, 2012 (UTC)


 * Right! But I think there are some information on the book The Art of Cars 2. 
 * Cars4ever (talk) 12:50, July 21, 2012 (UTC)


 * I also noticed Maersk when I was searching earlier this morning and I have to agree with Grey Catbird...it was most likely the name of the company he worked for. I also was unable to get to the link by searching through Pixar.com as well. Also, Ornament Valley isn't nearby Radiator Springs, since Radiator Springs is in it. Therefore, part of Ornament Valley is in Radiator Springs. Perhaps it should be listed in "Nearby" and also in town. Stanley's Oasis was right in the town, as can be seen in Time Travel Mater. Also, I don't "hate" your work at all. It has NOTHING to do with who does the work. I am merely correcting, fixing, cleaning up work, etc. Your work lately just happened to either need to be deleted or cleaned up dramatically. Trust me, there's nothing personal to it. OK? Just be more careful of the content you add/change. Thanks! - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 22:35, July 21, 2012 (UTC)


 * Right, excuse me!

Rod in disguise on the oil rig
Hi! Look at the last modify that Lightening McQueen did on Rod Redline page and post what you think...

Cars4ever - World of Cars Wiki, Pixar Wiki - (talk) 09:33, August 6, 2012 (UTC)


 * Don't know how we could know for sure if that is Rod... - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 17:14, August 6, 2012 (UTC)


 * Well, when Rod is in his disguise, he has a green stripe on his side. When Finn McMissile takes the first photos of the pulse generator, that was Rod shown because he has the green stripe, as well as we hear Bruce Campbell's voice (the actor who voices Rod). Also, when Finn goes onto a tightrope over the lemons to get closer photos of the camera, Professor Z says, "This is valuable equipment. Make sure it's properly secured for the voyage." Rod then says, "You've got it." And then, Grem says, "Hey! Professor Z! This is one of those British spies we told you about." Which Rod's mouth wasn't moving when Grem was talking. Also, Rod leaves before Grem and Acer appeared further away when they are about to open the crate with Leland Turbo as a cube. So that was Rod. - Lightening McQueen (talk) 17:42, August 6, 2012 (UTC)


 * Might be Rod used a disguise similar to th body of another Gremlin...
 * Cars4ever - Pixar Wiki - (talk) 17:45, August 6, 2012 (UTC)


 * When we hear Rod talking at the oil rig, we seem to hear his actor Bruce Campbell's voice. - Lightening McQueen (talk) 17:48, August 6, 2012 (UTC)


 * Ok, if you see at the party, there are Professor Z with Grem Acer and Rod. Might be that Rod went on the oil rig with his disguise and for a couple of days he lived "like a Gremlin"! :D
 * Cars4ever - Pixar Wiki - (talk) 17:52, August 6, 2012 (UTC)


 * Yes, that was Rod at the party and at the oil rig. Another reason why this is, is because when Finn McMissile and Holley Shiftwell are on the lift/elevator at the party, Holley said that the Americans actually discovered the oil rigs and pulse generator just before Finn. Holley then said, "They placed an agent on that platform under deep cover. He was able to get a photo of the car who's running the entire operation." Which that was Rod, but they haven't met him. Also, when Rod was captured by the Lemons, the pieces of his disguise are on the ground. And Grem and Acer were unhappy that Rod tricked them real good and they don't like being tricked, which Rod then laughs because that he explains, "Well, you know. I was just wearing a disguise. You guys are stuck looking like that." Also, when Professor Z said about Allinol, "When hit with a electromagnetic pulse, it becomes extremely dangerous," Grem was then aimming the camera at Rod, who then says, "Is that all you want? I got a whole act," which Professor Z then says, "You were very interested in this camera on the oil platform. Now, you will witness what it really does." So that's more proof that Rod was on the oil platform. And Cars4ever, when you said, "For a couple of days, he lived 'like a Gremlin'!", well, I know that when Rod was on the oil platform, he leaves before Grem and Acer show Professor Z the cube of Leland Turbo and when the lemons spot Finn, which Rod already leaves Professor Z before Finn gets spotted. --Lightening McQueen (talk) 12:32, August 10, 2012 (UTC)
 * Of course he was on the rig. Not sure if that's him the picture, though. - 12:07, August 11, 2012 (UTC)
 * I tend to agree that Rod actually appears on the oil rigs while McMissile is there. First the Gremlin in question has the same colors as Rod's disguise. It is of course possible Pixar has used two times the same colors, but considering these are used by an important character, it would be a bit surprising to be a coincidence... Second, he certainly behaves in a suspicious way, trying to learn more on the camera, like a cover spy would do... For the voice, I cannot verify it. Of course, this does not give anything of definitive, but I think it is very good evidence...Gray Catbird (talk) 00:58, August 14, 2012 (UTC)

Ryan, I think we have a suspect on this wikia. THEBABAMSTUDIOS is really Red Monstersmasher, and Jake Quake, the ones we kept blocking. Help!! Storm Brakehill (talk) 12:11, August 14, 2012 (UTC)

More proof that Rod is in seen in disguise at the oil rig, with these two photos:



So these pictures show that it is Rod. --Lightening McQueen (talk) 15:11, September 23, 2012 (UTC)

Pixar 3
I don't want you to think of me as a snitch but Pixar 3 created a page that is like the edits he has been doing before and I am Red Monstersmasher but I was blocked for no reason.

Cars Die-cast Line page problem
Hi Raptor! I wanna just tell you that the page Cars Die-cast line is a bit messed up. Some sections' names have been cancelled. Can you put in order the page?

 * Excuse me, I noticed that a user, Sirdangles, has just vandalized the page, removing a lot of content and files. I undo his edit. Can you bglock him?


 * P.S. There are two users: Storm Brakehill and TheBABAM Studios, that seems to be Red Monstersmasher. What can we do?


 * Thanks Cars4ever - Pixar Wiki - (talk) 08:47, August 19, 2012 (UTC)

Wikia&apos;s Time to Play
Hey RaptorWiki,

Wikia is rolling out a fun new initiative for the holiday season called “Time to Play” where we ask our wikis what page they’re most proud of. We want to know which page you would want to have represent. There will be an official blog going out on Nov. 1 but we wanted to reach out to you early and see if you were interested in participating now.

If you wanted to participate, a “Time to Play” badge would go up on the right rail of the mainpage that links users to the page that you choose, while the footer will live on that same page that links to hub pages eg. http://www.wikia.com/Entertainment for Time to Play goodies. You can see how the badge looks by clicking here and how the footer will appear by clicking here.

We will feature on http://www.wikia.com/Wikia in one the three biggest spots that we reserved for “Time to Play” participants on a rotating basis, as well as a feature on the hubs.

Let me know if you have any questions, I hope you decide to participate!

<font color="Blue">Kate 00:00, October 31, 2012 (UTC)


 * Hi Kate. Let me talk with the other admin here. Thanks! - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 01:44, October 31, 2012 (UTC)
 * Awesome! Hope you guys like the idea, and let me know if other wikis that you're an admin on are interested in participating :)

<font color="Blue">Kate 00:13, November 1, 2012 (UTC)


 * Hi Kate. We both agreed that we would like to do this, and use the Toy Story 3 page!  Thanks! - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 12:41, November 3, 2012 (UTC)

Untitled film scheduled for November 25th, 2015

Hello, I'm Ultimate iPad Expert from Apple Wiki. I just recently adopted it and could use some new admins, so I came here. I love Pixar Wiki! If there is anyone on this wiki that you think could help on Apple Wiki, please let me know.

Videos
Hey Raptor,

To highlight all the great content on Pixar Wiki we wanted to see if you were interested in exclusive video content from Wikia’s Video Library. We would be doing the bulk of the work by finding relevant great videos and embedding them on the wiki.

To draw attention to the high-quality videos Wikia currently has, we wanted to ask if we could update a part of the Community Messages, and create a rotating gallery of videos in a “Featured Media” section on the main page. An example can be seen here: http://ninokuni.wikia.com/wiki/Ni_No_Kuni_Wiki

Let me know what you think!  <font color="Black">PORTERFIELD  01:13, December 11, 2012 (UTC)


 * Hello. Please let me discuss with the other admin.  We'll get back to you!  Thanks. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 03:38, December 11, 2012 (UTC)
 * Hi, this is Jeff, the other admin. I think having the videos is a good idea, but I'm wondering where you envision putting this new section? I think it should go in the right-hand column of the main page. Also, we have the "Community" tab on top, maybe add a link in there to the featured videos? Thanks. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 16:03, December 11, 2012 (UTC)

Finding Nemo 2
Hi, I was wondering if we should create a new page for the Finding Nemo sequel. I know it has information about it in the Finding Nemo page, but we could still create one. I tried the other day, but it said other users tried and it got stopped because "it wasn't announced yet" even though Andrew Stanton has confirmed it. Even the Finding Nemo page it says that. I'm confused.

Pixarfan939 (talk) 18:03, December 30, 2012 (UTC)Pixarfan939


 * It has not been officially announced by Pixar itself. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 18:21, December 30, 2012 (UTC)
 * Just to pop into this conversation and expand on what Ryan said, Andrew Stanton did NOT announce or confirm that there will be a Finding Nemo 2. Yes, he stated he is working on a follow-up film, but there is nothing in regards to where in the pipeline or development this film is in. I'm sure Pixar has a number of films in development; not all of them will make it to release. It may be years until Finding Nemo 2 gets released.
 * Now, I don't know what Ryan thinks, but I think we can put a blurb on Stanton's page saying he has been working on the development of Finding Nemo 2. But we don't want to create a Finding Nemo 2 page until it is officially announced. Even then, we need to be careful of the page name since Disney/Pixar is known to change the name after announcing the film. This makes it a pain for us if we have to rename sub-pages and categories. Thanks. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 01:44, December 31, 2012 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I don't see any problem with something like that on Stanton's page. By the way, I removed the part about the sequel to Finding Nemo because it was directly copied from Wikipedia. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 02:31, December 31, 2012 (UTC)
 * OK, I added a comment on his page. Thanks for cleaning up Finding Nemo! --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 03:02, December 31, 2012 (UTC)


 * I don't know if it is confirmed now, because this month, it was announced that Albert Brooks will return as Marlin, as shown on Deadline and Comingsoon.net. --Lightening McQueen (talk) 17:39, February 13, 2013 (UTC)
 * It has not yet been officially confirmed by Disney or Pixar. Until we see a press release from one or the other, it is not "official". Thanks. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 20:15, February 13, 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) 17:21, January 16, 2013 (UTC)

Shall we make a page for the game? --Lightening McQueen (talk) 19:44, January 16, 2013 (UTC)
 * First, you need to be patient with Ryan and myself. We are only volunteers and both work other full-time jobs, so it can take a day or more for us to respond.
 * As for your question, yes, I think we want to create a page for this. It is a derivative work and not directly from Pixar, but we have separate pages for other video games which I would classify this effort as. Let's hear what Ryan has to say about it and if he agrees, then we can create a page for it. Thanks. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 21:48, January 16, 2013 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the response, Jeff. Yes, I just got home from work.  I do agree with Jeff in that the page should be created.  Just keep in mind that on the character pages, this work should not be included in the "Appeared in" section.  It should only be noted in the trivia section of those pages, noting that the character appeared in this game.  Which makes me wonder...Jeff, should we modify the character infobox to include a section specifically for appearances in non-Pixar works?  Or do we just leave it in the trivia as it is now?  Thanks! - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 00:48, January 17, 2013 (UTC)
 * My inclination would be to NOT modify the infobox, with my thinking that it should be reserved for Pixar-created works. And I don't think we've had too much of an issue keeping non-Pixar works out of the character's "Appeared in" sections. But if we start seeing issues with this, we could add a new section to the infobox to make it more obvious. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 01:05, January 17, 2013 (UTC)
 * Sounds good. Thanks! - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 01:51, January 17, 2013 (UTC)

Re: Car Wikis
Hey Raptor,

Sorry I haven't gotten back to you. I saw that you did leave messages with the admins of those wikis and haven't gotten responses back. Although we can't merge the wikis without permission from the admins, something you can try is asking them to attribute the content back to Pixar Wiki as the source, and if you are still interested in getting a Pixar webring made, I'd be happy to help you out with that.

Let me know,

 * I don't know if it was on this or another wiki, but all it did was encourage people to make edits for the sake of making edits, and the edits were of poor quality and often undone. There really is no point. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 00:03, February 8, 2013 (UTC)

References on pages with videos from Wikia's Video Library
After Porterfield added some videos from Wikia's Video Library onto some of the pages, the references on these pages won't show now. I think there might be an error. --Lightening McQueen (talk) 17:20, February 9, 2013 (UTC)
 * The issue is with some of the galleries. There is a width attribute, but in some galleries it is spelled incorrectly as widths. I modified Toy Story and fixed it. I will start looking at other pages, but feel free to see if this resolves the issues. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 23:58, February 9, 2013 (UTC)

Message Wall
I stumbled upon how to turn off the Message Wall, so I did. I was trying to find how to change the entries of the different sub-menus under the Universe tab (characters, films, shorts), which I should point out I never did figure it out, and found the Special:WikiFeatures page, which had a button to enable/disable the Message Wall. So it's off.

I wanted to make the Films/Characters/Shorts top-level menu items but the system doesn't let me, so I created the new Universe tab. If you think of a better name for that feel free to change it. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 13:21, March 25, 2013 (UTC)

Renaming the Cars Toons page
Hi ! As you probably know, some new Cars Toons not in the Mater's Tall Tales series were released in March. A consequence of this is that "Mater's Tall Tales" and "Cars Toons" are no longer synonyms. Therefore I think the page  Cars Toons: Mater's Tall Tales should renamed to simply "Cars Toons", as it now also covers the new "Tales from Radiator Springs" series. Problem is, the page is locked so that only an admin can move it. Could you please rename the page ? Gray Catbird (talk) 00:03, April 7, 2013 (UTC)
 * Done! - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 12:07, April 7, 2013 (UTC)

Hopper Trivia
That last piece of trivia shown below is factual and very important. You shouldn't have deleted it. I'm putting it back. Please don't delete it again.

Hopper is also is the second Disney villain whose death is forced to edition due to its possible sensitiveness, the first being Scar's demise in order to avoid making kids notice he was being quartered by the hyenas, as it happened to Hopper with the chicks. The third being Syndrome's death of being shredded by the airplane's propellers.


 * It will be removed again if you put it back, because it is irrelevant, you used incomplete sentences, and "forced to edition" isn't even a phrase. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 18:22, May 15, 2013 (UTC)

I'm sorry
I'm sorry. I didn't realize. I actually copied that piece of Trivia from Disney Wiki. I didn't realize it made no sense whatsoever. Please forgive me. I am not trying to deliberately vandalize any article. Again, I'm really sorry. Please forgive me.

Foolish Question
May I please ask a rather foolish question? Why are we not allowed to delete our own talk messages on this site after the recipient has responded to them and solved the problem. We don't have that type of restriction on most other wiki sites. On these other wiki sites, once the message has been responded to and the problem solved, there was nothing against deleting our own talk messages, as they were now considered useless. Please answer my question if you kindly would, and I promise to respect your wishes on this wiki site. I am actually a helpful wiki contributor.

GrayWolf2 (talk) 23:01, May 15, 2013 (UTC)GrayWolf2


 * Just for archival purposes. As you can see, as you look back through my talk page, I have not had anything deleted.  I don't remember if Jeff (User:Dvcnut) told me that was our policy here, normal Wikia policy, or just his preference, but I agreed that it was a good idea, so I've always adhered to it.  Thanks. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 00:34, May 16, 2013 (UTC)
 * I'm not aware of it being a formal policy, it just seems to make sense. When I started here on the wiki other folks kept all the conversations on their talk pages so that's what I did. I like it that way; as Ryan says, it's great for archival purposes. My memory just isn't what it used to be so it's nice to be able to go back and see what was discussed. :)


 * Also, that is not a foolish question at all. Thanks for being a contributor here on the site! Please don't take it personally if someone reverts one of your changes, that's the essence of a wiki. If you don't understand why someone deleted/changed one of your edits, I would recommend asking them rather than putting it back in. Thanks. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 00:52, May 16, 2013 (UTC)

Buster Trivia
Why do you have to say Buster is one of the few "organic" Toy Story characters who knows toys come to life? That adjective "organic" is not used under the last line of the article Scud. I don't think that adjective is necessary at all. It may confuse wiki readers. Isn't it fine to just say Buster is one of the few Toy Story characters who knows toys come to life?
 * No, because it is not fine because it is not true. MOST of the characters know toys come to life, since most of the characters are toys.  Either remove the note you added completely, or change the word "organic" to "non-toy".  I know what you're getting at, and at first I wanted to add "living", but that made no sense with the rest of the sentence.  So, perhaps "non-toy" will work. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 18:02, May 28, 2013 (UTC)

Buster and Scud articles
I took your advice and put Scud/Buster is one of the few non-toy Toy Story characters who knows toys can come to life. By the way, I didn't add that last piece of trivia for Buster, somebody else did. I only altered it a little.

Hey there RaptorWiki,

I'm not sure if you're aware but the ComDev team here at Wikia runs a biweekly Community Podcast that showcases all the awesome work that our wikis do. We invite admins of wikis to come and chat with us about their experiences, their passion for their respective franchises, etc. With the release of Monsters U, we would love to invite you to talk on our podcast next week. We'll be recording Monday or Tuesday and if you have any free time then, please let me know so we can chat about Pixar and Monsters U!

Unnecessary
Hi!

I see that you have been reading Aadit.aora's pages a lot. Me too. I noticed that you told him to stop giving the "-gonist" to characters. And, you guys deleted the List of Pixar Villains page. Well, now he did a List of Pixar Heroes page, and a Main Villains page. This guy is really not paying attention to what we're saying, and it's kind of worrying me.

Thanks!

Juanmaseta 02:27, July 5, 2013


 * Thanks! - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 05:14, July 5, 2013 (UTC)


 * After the discussion with Gray Catbird, I was willing to step back and let this be. But after seeing Aadit.arora remove a word from Juanmaseta's message which then made it look like Juanmaseta supported what he was doing, I sent in a Checkuser request. It came back negative, so this is not the anonymous user I was thinking of. Even though that anonymous user and this user have shown up on a few of the same wikis, this is a case of two separate people who happen to be doing the same thing.


 * I looked through Aadit.arora's edits on the wikis I've been able to find where he's visited. Out of about 260 edits, only 10 were adding new information or fixing a mistake. The rest, 96% of his edits, were trying to define what level of antagonist or protagonist a character was. In a couple of cases, he removed the same information that he added previously, which shows that he can't even make up his mind about how to classify a character. It also shows that he's not adding this information to make the wikis better. He's adding it because he wants to add it.


 * I have run into this kind of person before. They're fixated or obsessed with a particular item and will ignore what other people say. They will keep at it until it goes beyond being a nuisance and becomes vandalism. So, I am going to treat this as vandalism and do what I can to clean it up. —RRabbit42 ( leave a message ) 14:47, July 5, 2013 (UTC)


 * Hello. I have already treated this as vandalism and blocked the user yesterday. Thanks. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 18:17, July 5, 2013 (UTC)


 * Actually, I was including edits that happened on other wikis after he was blocked here, and as of today, he has gone to three or four new wikis to add the same antagonist/protagonist information. That's the fixation I was referring to: "I'm blocked on this wiki? I'll just find a new one and keep doing the same thing there."


 * You've already taken care of the vandalism here and I'll do what I can to fix it on the other wikis he visits. But here's a word of advice: be ready to re-block this user after the block expires in October. The Blocked users list already shows he tried to come back and edit here again. That's another facet of fixation: going back to the same wikis once a block expires. —RRabbit42 ( leave a message ) 04:55, July 9, 2013 (UTC)


 * Yeah, one of those wikis that he had contributed on was my Cars 3 Wiki. --Lightening McQueen (talk) 12:24, July 9, 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 01:49, July 17, 2013 (UTC)
 * Dvcnut and I had a longer conversation on his talk page, check it out on this link.
 * Ultimate iPad Expert Talk 02:52, July 17, 2013 (UTC)
 * Hello. I don't really see the point of doing that.  If somebody wants to see a movie page, they'll go directly there, and not click through a button at the bottom until they get there. When will anybody actually use it?  If they wanted to see all films available, they can just click the "Movies" category at the bottom. Thanks for the suggestion, though! - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 09:15, July 17, 2013 (UTC)

Mctalwolfer on Scud article
The wiki user Mctalwolfer keeps re-editing the Scud article by changing the antagonist's status. I left him a message to please leave the Scud article the way it currently is. Scud was the secondary but true main antagonist in Toy Story, right? If Mctalwolfer keeps this up, you may have to block him for a while. Please get back to me on this. Thanks.

GrayWolf2 (talk) 16:01, August 9, 2013 (UTC)GrayWolf2
 * I have modified the page so it no longer says anything about being an antagonist. Ryan can disagree with me, but I don't consider Scud to be any sort of antagonist, Sid is. I have also warned Mctalwolfer that he may be blocked if he continues making these types of edits. Thanks. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 16:55, August 9, 2013 (UTC)


 * No, I don't think he's any kind of antagonist either. He's just a non-sentient dog. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 17:00, August 9, 2013 (UTC)

Block Mctalwolfer
Please block Mctalwolfer right away. He is vandalizing the Sid Phillips and Scud articles again. Apparently, he is ingoring the message Jeff sent him. Say, do you think you could make me administrator so I can block any vandalists as well. I have been a very helpful contributor on this site, and I think I deserve the position as well. Please get back to me on this. Thanks.

Thank you for blocking Mctalwolfer, whether it was you or Jeff who did it. Listen, do you think you could make me administrator so I can block any vandalists as well. I have been a very helpful contributor on this site, and I think I deserve the position as well. Please get back to me on this. Thanks.

 * No need to thank me...Jeff stated he would get blocked if he did it again, and he did it again, so I blocked him. He/she deserved it. We have enough help, but thank you for noticing that this person needed to be blocked as well. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 19:34, August 11, 2013 (UTC)


 * Also, no need to repeat messages, please. Most of your last two messages contain identical content. Thanks. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 19:35, August 11, 2013 (UTC)
 * So are you going to grant me administrator privileges? Please?
 * GrayWolf2 (talk) 20:31, August 11, 2013 (UTC)GrayWolf2


 * If you see above, I did say we have enough help. Not looking for administrators at this time. Please continue to contribute with edits.  Thanks! - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 21:23, August 11, 2013 (UTC)

New wiki for logos

Animals
Hey we need a category for the animals characters. It's completely relevant. Also what's housekeeping? --Kyurem147 (talk) 04:57, November 20, 2013 (UTC)


 * Hmm, an animal category would encompass 100% of the A Bug's Life characters and most of those of Finding Nemo, and would mix with it a few characters from other films... Abd what would happen with tractors and monsters ? It seems way too broad for me?...Gray Catbird (talk) 16:05, November 20, 2013 (UTC)
 * Yes, very broad. We have stayed away from these categories, and even more specific ones like dogs, just don't see much benefit. Thanks. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 16:48, November 20, 2013 (UTC)
 * Why did I stop getting any emails from Wikia at all? I did not see anything since sometime in November apparently! - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 01:45, January 10, 2014 (UTC)
 * Really?!?! Wow, that is weird! I thought you'd been quiet lately, that explains a lot! :)
 * Did your preferences somehow get changed? Or are messages being marked as spam? --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 04:14, January 10, 2014 (UTC)
 * When I went to the email tab under My Preferences last night, it said my email address was unconfirmed! After how many years?  Soon as I "confirmed" it, I started getting emails again!  Really strange. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 10:10, January 10, 2014 (UTC)

Email
Hey RaptorWiki. This is Brandon from Wikia's Community Support Team. I sent you an email last week (titled "Wikia Stars") using the address that's connected with your Wikia account, and I just want to check in to see if you received it. Did you? Thanks! - <font color="#1A2BBB">Brandon Rhea <font color="#1A2BBB">(talk) 00:14, December 11, 2013 (UTC)
 * Hey RaptorWiki. Just wanted to follow up on this again. Did you get my email? Let me know, thanks! - <font color="#1A2BBB">Brandon Rhea <font color="#1A2BBB">(talk)  00:27, December 17, 2013 (UTC)
 * Hello. No, I did not receive anything.  I haven't received anything from anyone or anything Wikia in 2 months or so it seems. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 01:46, January 10, 2014 (UTC)

Hi!
What's the requirements for adminship? -- 01:08, January 12, 2014 (UTC)
 * Hello! You need good responsible edits, cleaning up, our trust, lots of time spent here, the need for another admin, and chosen by all other admins if the need is there. Thanks! - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 13:29, January 12, 2014 (UTC)

Mctalwolfer must be blocked
Mctalwolfer is at it again. He is vandalizing the Pixar wiki articles and adding an unneeded notation that says, "Please Do Not Edit". How low is that?! ANYONE can edit these wiki articles if the edits are necessary, factual, or have typos or incorrect grammar. He needs to be permanently blocked from this site, so please block him forever if you kindly would. I know this contributor. He is a nusiance to six other wiki sites, which I am an administrator of these said wiki sites and had to permanently block him from these sites as well. He is a disgrace as a wiki contributor and should NOT be editing any wiki articles on any wiki sites at all. Please consider. Thanks.

GrayWolf2 (talk) 13:10, February 15, 2014 (UTC)GrayWolf2


 * He's just coming off a block, but I blocked him once again. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 15:32, February 15, 2014 (UTC)


 * You can save yourself some time and hassle by making the block permanent now. While he was blocked here, Mctalwolfer went to other wikis and did the same thing there, which shows that he is not going to change his behavior. He has been given many chances on many wikis and has ignored them all. His only purpose for being on wikis is to fuss with antagonist levels, to change them every time he goes to a page even if he has to contradict what he said before, and to hide the fact that he reverts pages to earlier versions to put his antagonist fussing back in place. We do not need him here, continuing to make messes on this wiki. —RRabbit42 ( leave a message ) 00:55, February 16, 2014 (UTC)

Sherlock.dow
We have another vandal named Sherlock.dow. He is adding unneeded content to the insect characters in "A Bug's Life". I left him a message politely telling him so and asking him to stop, but he ignored my message and continued doing so. Please block him right away because he is causing problems to this site. Thanks.

GrayWolf2 (talk) 22:05, February 16, 2014 (UTC)GrayWolf2
 * I have blocked him temporarily, until I can more fully realize if his actions are vandalism or just innocent edits. Thanks for helping clean up. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 22:34, February 16, 2014 (UTC)
 * It seems obvious this user was here to just cause vandalism, so I have permanently blocked him. I've left his talk page open for editing if they want to try and explain their actions. Thanks. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 22:43, February 16, 2014 (UTC)
 * Thanks, Jeff! - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 01:43, February 17, 2014 (UTC)

Add new language
Hi

I have a question. My language is Persian or Farsi, and decided to translate Pixar wikia. but I couldn't find a button to creat persian language and start translation. I mean now there is these language:

Deutsch, Español, Français, Nederlands, 日本語, עברית

and I want to add persian or farsi to this list. How can I do that? Should I contact someone in Pixar wikia or there is a button that I can't find?

Thanks.

AminVertigo (talk) 17:45, February 21, 2014 (UTC)


 * Hello. Those are foreign language sites, separate from this one.  Those are not translations of this wiki.  You would have to search for a wiki that is already in that language.  Sorry, and thanks! - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 17:56, February 21, 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) 20:56, March 15, 2014 (UTC)
 * Hi! I will not undo a block made by Jeff.  You will have to ask him.  Thanks! - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 15:01, March 16, 2014 (UTC)

Ball
Dilster101 added some new Ball images that are neither from Pixar nor Disney sources. Could you please delete them. Only Disney and Pixar images should be allowed on this site. I left him a reminder message telling him so.

Wikia's Video Swap Tool
Hi there!

Though you might already know about, I thought I’d remind you about [Special:LicensedVideoSwap|Wikia’s Video Swap tool], which allows you to very easily swap out YouTube videos embedded across your community for the Wikia equivalent. It only effects YouTube videos with a matching Wikia video. Swapping out your videos for matching officially licensed Wikia videos means that the videos on your community are less likely to be taken down and rendered unwatchable.

With your approval, I can go through and make these swaps for you — if you’d rather undertake this task yourself — or if you’re uninterested entirely — just let me know! I'll likely start making some of the swaps for you in a week, so be sure to let me know as soon as you can if you'd rather not make the switch."

Thanks!

Mhadick (talk) 23:44, May 14, 2014 (UTC)

Hi! I don't see how changing those out would be a problem. Do you, Jeff? Thanks! - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 11:00, May 15, 2014 (UTC)
 * No, it sounds good to me. Thanks! --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 12:49, May 15, 2014 (UTC)

Possible Admins position
I left Gray Catbird the same message, but never got back to me in over several days. I was wondering if I could possibly be promoted to Administrator because I have been very helpful on this wiki site, made very good edits on articles, and I would like to be able to delete unwanted articles or block vandals that are vandalizing wiki articles on Pixar Wiki. Please consider granting me Admins rights if there is an opening available because I really think I deserve to become an Admins on Pixar Wiki. I'd appreciate it. Thanks.

GrayWolf2 (talk) 03:06, May 17, 2014 (UTC)GrayWolf2


 * Hello! We are not currently looking to add an admin, but thank you for the enthusiasm and initiative in asking. I'm sure we will keep it in mind if the time comes to add someone. Please continue with the great edits, and thank you once again! - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 13:48, May 17, 2014 (UTC)

Candidates for Deletion
There are 10 Candidates for deletion; more than half of them are over 6 months old. Could you please permanently delete those unneeded articles since only Administrators are able to do so. I'd appreciate it.

GrayWolf2 (talk) 21:42, May 18, 2014 (UTC)GrayWolf2

Mfaccas
Could you please block Mfaccas? He is vandalizing the wiki articles from "A Bug's Life" by altering the Character infoboxes whose voice actors don't exist at all, and changing the unnamed Bug characters to a non-canon name. He ignored the messages I sent him previously, so I believe blocking him from the site (possibly permanently) is the only other solution. Please and thank you.

GrayWolf2 (talk) 01:14, June 3, 2014 (UTC)GrayWolf2


 * I see that Jeff left a message for them. We'll see how that goes. Thanks! - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 12:29, June 3, 2014 (UTC)

Emergency!
Mctalwolfer is vandalizing the wiki articles again! I don't know if his block was lifted somehow, but he needs to be blocked permanently! Please and thank you. Repeat, urgent!

GrayWolf2 (talk) 16:39, June 3, 2014 (UTC)GrayWolf2

Dear Ryan. Waternoose is the main antagonist of the film Monsters Inc, so please don't edit it. don't believe, read the comments on Waternoose villains wiki
 * Anyone can edit an open wiki, hence they are not valid sources; citing one "proves" precisely nothing. — RobertATfm (talk) 19:49, June 3, 2014 (UTC)
 * I've just checked the comments referred to above, and most of them are by Mctalwolfer, so his argument "proves" even less than usual. — RobertATfm (talk) 19:53, June 3, 2014 (UTC)
 * I think we've made it clear that both Waternoose and Randall are considered the main antagonists. Mctalwolfer has been warned regarding this type of behavior. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 20:23, June 3, 2014 (UTC)
 * Thanks for leaving a message on Mctalwolfer's talk page, Jeff! - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 00:23, June 4, 2014 (UTC)

Re: Mfaccas
Mfaccas is doing it again! He's vandalizing the "A Bug's Life" articles. he obviously ignored the message that Jeff left him. Block him permanently. He is a disgrace to this wiki site. Please and thank you.

 * Jeff beat me to it! - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 22:59, June 4, 2014 (UTC)

Mctalwolfer's Messages
Jeff is reediting the article of Henry J. Waternoose against Pixar. Please do not enable with him and block cause he is messing up articles that are ment for Pixar Studios. Thanks, Mctalwolfer. Don't believe Waternoose is the main adversary, come into Pixars Site
 * For a start, I think you mean "re-editing"; when I read your post I wondered what "reed-iting" was supposed to be. And quoting a fan site which is trying to pass itself off as the official Pixar site "proves" just as little as your previous attempt to claim "credibility" by citing yourself as a source. — RobertATfm (talk) 12:01, June 4, 2014 (UTC)

Permanently block Mfaccas
Mfaccas is vandalizing the same exact articles he did in the past. He needs to be permanently blocked from this site. He's not paying any attention to the messages we leave him. He is a disgrace to this wiki site. Please permanently block him once and for all, if you kindly would. Thanks.

GrayWolf2 (talk) 03:54, June 19, 2014 (UTC)GrayWolf2

Jeff left a message for him already. Thanks. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 09:16, June 19, 2014 (UTC)

Aidan.ramm
This user has made just two edits so far, both in the past few hours, but both removing vast swathes of the articles in question (and both since reverted, of course). Looks like this is shaping up to be a vandalism-only account; a warning is clearly in order. — RobertATfm (talk) 12:23, July 3, 2014 (UTC)
 * Thanks. We'll see what happens. May have been a mess up. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 16:27, July 3, 2014 (UTC)
 * I have the impression it is a bug related to the new visual editor. Another editor (User:Dryboneslovesdaisy4) is getting the same problem, and the edits of both users have the tag "VisualEditor". Gray Catbird (talk) 15:39, July 6, 2014 (UTC)

Cars 2 Die-Cast
Hello, first I would like to say I'm happy to meet another collector. I have 120-ish cars in my collection and another 100ish unopened. The conflicting edits have been annoying so I will tell you when I edit: 2-5PM EDT when there is a big release. Other than that I'm pretty dormant. Just when I find new Cars. (I go to Target, Wal-Mart, Toys R Us pretty regularly). PS I didn't know you were admin until I came here.

CAMERAwMUSTACHE (talk) 21:26, August 2, 2014 (UTC)


 * Hello. Glad to see another collector here.  I don't collect Cars 2 except for the metallics and the Kmart cars, unless I see a Chase, and then I'll grab that too.  I have almost every single Cars 1 release.  Probably have around 450 vehicles now.  I have cleaned up the page with the items that are released.  Thanks! - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 21:36, August 2, 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.

GrayWolf2 (talk) 19:09, January 15, 2015 (UTC)GrayWolf2


 * Can you link to the ones you're talking about, please? Thanks! - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 19:30, January 15, 2015 (UTC)

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 you were 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.

GrayWolf2 (talk) 19:23, January 15, 2015 (UTC)GrayWolf2

Illegal photos
Please delete these photos, which are not official Pixar Cars photos:







P.S. RebeccaTaylor1972 blamed me for reverting her edits, when it was you who did so, and she even threatened to have me blocked for 9 months, aside from putting those nasty message on those Cars articles to not undo those edits. Furthermore, she ignored the messages I left her explaining who undid her edits and that it wasn't my fault. I think she should be blocked permanently, especially for threatening to block me when I had nothing to do with those reversions. Please consider. Thanks.

GrayWolf2 (talk) 22:34, January 15, 2015 (UTC)GrayWolf2


 * I deleted the 3 you listed (you listed one twice). Don't worry about RebeccaTaylor1972. They were empty threats from what I believe was a younger person. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 01:04, January 16, 2015 (UTC)

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.

This is the fifteenth take, I cannot work like this...
Ahem. :-)

This post is (I think) the 180th post to this talk page, which is getting rather long and unwieldy. Isn't it about time you archived the older messages? — RobertATfm (talk) 21:14, February 10, 2015 (UTC)

Request from Wikia
Hi RaptorWiki

I wanted to ask if your community would be open to participating in a test we'd like to run. There won't be anything required of you or other users here, and it shouldn't have any impact on the user/reader experience.

The details: You may have noticed that most wikias have  between the main domain name and the page name, in the URL. Pixar Wiki is one of the few communities that do not have that. We are exploring some "behind the scenes" changes on Wikia, and these changes would require us to add  to the page URLs of the small number of communities that don't have that.

We would like to add  back to the URLs of Pixar and make sure that there is no impact on search engine optimization and a few other things. We expect that there will be no impact but just need to confirm that.

URLs without  in them, that users might have bookmarked or that might be linked elsewhere on the web, will still get people to the right place. So there should be no effect on the user experience. And we can always stop the test if anything unexpected comes up.

Let me know if we can proceed with this, or if you have any questions. I'll reply back and confirm when the test will start.

Thanks!

 * I'll check with the other admin. I can't believe it would be a problem..... Thanks. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 12:17, February 26, 2015 (UTC)


 * Hi RaptorWiki, I just wanted to let you know that we'll be starting this test tomorrow (Thursday April 9). Please let me know if you notice any issues that could be related. Thanks! BertH (help forum | blog) 20:02, April 8, 2015 (UTC)


 * Hi RaptorWiki, we disabled the test since it had some severe and unexpected results -- edits and uploads were unable to complete, except within VisualEditor. I apologize for any inconvenience this caused! I really appreciate you being willing to help us test. Please let me know if you have any questions or if you notice any remaining issues. Thank you. BertH (help forum | blog) 17:52, April 11, 2015 (UTC)


 * OK, thanks for letting us know! - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 22:49, April 11, 2015 (UTC)

Hi, I just wanted to ask, how do you know what categories are okay to make if one doesn't exist.--Samuraiforever (talk) 23:55, March 13, 2015 (UTC)

Random Highlighting When Editng
This just started today and it is EXTREMELY ANNOYING! This lags my iPad and when I scroll the text moves, but the highlighting doesn't. It also causes my keyboard to lag making some letters not register. Is there any way to turn it off?!

CAMERAwMUSTACHE (talk) 19:12, March 26, 2015 (UTC)
 * Hello Camera, I'll take the liberty to answer you. This is a new Wikia feature; you can get some information about it here. If you want to turn it off, you can go to your preferences, and choose "Do not show syntax highlighting in Source mode" in the Editing section. Hope that helps! --Gray Catbird (talk) http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/pixar/images/thumb/1/11/Gray_catbird_cars.png/25px-Gray_catbird_cars.jpg 20:02, March 26, 2015 (UTC)

Hercules (1996 film)
Please delete Hercules (1996 film) because it is NOT Pixar material at all. Thanks. Neither Dvcnut or Gray Catbird have taken immediate action to deleting said non-Pixar article.

GrayWolf2 (talk) 15:22, May 9, 2015 (UTC)GrayWolf2


 * Not seeing it. Must be gone now.  Putting the Delete tags on it is good enough.  Things don't need to be deleted immediately. Thanks. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 19:49, May 9, 2015 (UTC)

Hercules is produced by Walt Disney Feature Animation, not Pixar Animation Studios.

There's not even a Disney on ice page, what are you talking about?
 * Of course there isn't a "Disney on Ice" page; this is the Pixar Wiki, not the Disney Wiki. Hence why both the Disney On Ice and the Hercules pages were deleted. — RobertATfm (talk) 07:57, May 31, 2015 (UTC)

Hi Ryan!

My name is Ariana - I'm on the Community team over here at Wikia. I just wanted to let you know that I created a Parent Page for Inside Out, since it's a popular movie this Summer! Click here to check it out- feel free to change or edit anything.

Is it okay for us to build more parent pages in the future for popular Pixar films?

Thanks in advance for your help!

URL Structure Change
Hello,

I am contacting you to inform you that effective mid-day Thursday (about 36 hours from this message being posted), Wikia will be changing the URL structure of this community to have the  snippet re-added to the address. This wikia has previously been one of just two dozen that has a URL structure without the  snippet.

To be transparent, the reasons for this change are two-fold.

First, Wikia is continuing work on our new skin called Mercury. Mercury is not a re-skin of the basic Desktop look, but rather an adaptive skin that will port key Desktop functionality over to Mobile (in fact, Mobile Web is mostly running on Mercury as it is). By having all of Wikia on a single URL structure, we can eliminate a lot of coding use cases, making the skin more lightweight in terms of performance and friendly to newer engineers trying to build new services on top of our platform. In addition, moving forward as Wikia continues to grow as a platform, it may make sense for us to delineate parts of a wikia through URL structure instead of namespaces. For instance  could bring you to the Admin Dashboard. Nothing like that is set in stone by any means, but at the very least having everything unified on URL structure will help future development.

Second, the /wiki snippet has been proven to help with SEO when we compared similar communities with differing URL structures. Based on our research, it seems many people tend to search for "(TOPIC) Wiki" instead of "(TOPIC) community" or "(TOPIC) page". Having the /wiki URL snippet dramatically increases the visibility of your wikia on search engines.

We have done a number of tests to prevent any bugs. If anything seems out of whack Thursday with the URL structure, please let me know either by replying to this or sending a message to Special:Contact. Please also remember to check your CSS or JS files to make sure that you are pointing to the right URLs. Old URLs should redirect, but it never hurts of course to have the most accurate URL in your files. --DaNASCAT (help forum | blog) 04:52, August 5, 2015 (UTC)
 * Hello. Please, before making this change, review User_talk:RaptorWiki - at that point when they tried adding  to the address it caused a lot of issues and had to be reverted. Have those issues been resolved? If not then we cannot move to this structure. Please give us an update on these issues prior to any changes being implemented. Thanks! --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 14:06, August 5, 2015 (UTC)

Approval to Link Here
Hello, RaptorWiki.

I am an administrator on the Disney Infinity Wiki. We are about to start a project there that calls for us to add a section at the bottom of certain pages that will link to the same subject’s page on other wikis. We are going to start soon, but we want to respect the work of other communities, so we are asking permission first. Would you and your community be okay with us linking to your wiki?

 * Hello! Though this is not my talk page, I thought I'd give my thoughts. I think there is no problem at all with you adding links to our content. Out of curiosity, I was wondering: are you planning on putting just a link to our page, or do you intend to include in there some of our content? --Gray Catbird (talk) http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/pixar/images/thumb/1/11/Gray_catbird_cars.png/25px-Gray_catbird_cars.jpg 02:39, August 8, 2015 (UTC)


 * We will only be linking to your pages from our pages. I am personally very much against copying other wikis' pages, even if citations are used; I find it lazy and unprofessional.

Thanks for blocking Might03156, if you are the one who did it, but you still need to delete all the articles that he created, which are not related to Pixar at all. Please kindly do.

Action needed against rogue user Коля Шакиров‎ (Kolya Shakirov)
Shakirov has uploaded two images which are not official Pixar images, and although both are supposedly of Finding Dory voice actors, they are actually both of multiple people, with no indication as to which of them is supposed to be the person named. Worst of all, the EXIF data ndicates that uploading them here is a copyright violation.

Shakirov has furthermore three times vandalised the Destiny and Bailey articles by adding these images, despite being warned not to do this, and despite the "Destiny" image having been deleted. I think a block is in order. — RobertATfm (talk) 19:12, October 10, 2015 (UTC)

Sorry, I stopped getting email notifications from wikia regarding messages on my talk page and all articles for some reason. Is this person still vandalizing? Thanks. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 03:35, December 12, 2015 (UTC)

He seems to have settled down, but the image File:Bailey_Ty_Burrell.jpg still remains, despite being irrelevant and a copyvio. — RobertATfm (talk) 10:14, December 12, 2015 (UTC)


 * Deleted. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 21:42, December 12, 2015 (UTC)

User:RachelMack1992
I notice that this user has just created a blatant sockpuppet account, RachelMack1992Returns, which has duly been banned (does she reckon that because she's stupid, so are we?). Since the same happened with her previous sock account (RachelMack13), which has been globally blocked, perhaps it's time to request a global block on her main account and the most recent sock account. — RobertATfm (talk) 00:26, December 12, 2015 (UTC)

Well, jeff kays was saying that i should pick an account which i tried to log back in. if i don't pick one, me and my sockpuppet accounts will be disabled.
 * Sounds reasonable. Pick one and use it, and all other accounts will be blocked. It is not allowed by Wikia to have multiple accounts. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 23:43, January 11, 2016 (UTC)

I am not sure of the gender. Because the hair makes it look like a female, I just thought, it is probably a female, but I don't know for sure. It could be a male.

 * I don't see any vandalism...where? - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 12:51, March 3, 2016 (UTC)
 * The user had replaced legit images with junk. RobertATfm had already reverted the changes so I had to look thru file history to see it. I have blocked this user. Thanks. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 14:00, March 3, 2016 (UTC)
 * Check the file history tags for those two images. I reverted both of them, but he replaced Nigel with a tropical bird of some sort and Woody with something vaguely rectangular. — RobertATfm (talk) 14:12, March 3, 2016 (UTC)

Fanon rename
For at least the second time, the article Ms. Davis and its talk page have been moved (this time by User:Cartoonman25) to "Emily Davis" on the basis that "she was Jessie's former owner in flashback sequences". As far as I know, this is pure fanon/speculation; the only basis for this claim is that the two models (Emily and Ms. Davis) slightly resemble one another, there is absolutely no official source for this. The page "Talk:Emily Davis" needs to be moved back to "Talk:Ms. Davis" (the contents of "Emily Davis" have already been moved back to "Ms. Davis"), and possibly also "Emily Davis" and its talk page should be deleted and locked down to prevent this happening again. — RobertATfm (talk) 20:45, April 16, 2016 (UTC)
 * It's fixed now. Thanks for the note. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 20:54, April 16, 2016 (UTC)

Re: Ms354494
<p style="font-weight:normal;">You might have to block Ms354494 because he keeps making unneeded edits to the "Inside Out Trivia" article and a few other articles. I don't think leaving him a warning message will be enough in this case, as most users nowadays are too unwise to correct their behavior. Please kindly take care of him if he continues, which he most likely will.

<p style="font-weight:normal;">GrayWolf2 (talk) 04:02, April 17, 2016 (UTC)GrayWolf2


 * One of his latest changes (the deletion, for at least the fifth time and for no (stated) reason, of the "Riley's bedroom stars" trivium) was despite a warning by me to stop doing so. I reckon this is a clear vandal account, and needs to be dealt with accordingly. — RobertATfm (talk) 05:42, April 17, 2016 (UTC)


 * I do not think this is a "clear vandal account" as some legit changes were made by the user. Appears as though they just want things their way. I'll give them a smaller 1 week block with a warning. Thanks. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 13:55, April 17, 2016 (UTC)
 * I beat you to it, but I did a 3 month block, since this is the 2nd block for the same activity. Feel free to reduce the length if you think I was too harsh. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 14:00, April 17, 2016 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I saw when I went to do it! And 3 month is fine since this is the 2nd offense, as you stated. Thanks! - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 14:10, April 17, 2016 (UTC)
 * I think we should have a policy in place regarding users that do not use their talk page to answer questions/comments on reasons for their edits to a page. People that never answer their page when questioned, maybe should be banned outright (give them a certain amount of time to explain themselves). We don't have time to keep questioning people over and over that never reply on their talk page. What do you think? - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 14:16, April 17, 2016 (UTC)
 * I like that a lot, and have actually done that maybe once or twice. In these cases the user never responded so the block was never lifted. It would likely reduce our going back-and-forth with these users. Should we do this with this user? --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 14:54, April 17, 2016 (UTC)
 * Well, since we don't have a policy in place yet, no, not for this user. But I think once an admin says to the non-responding user that they must reply to the admin or to the other users' questions/requests, within a certain time (1 day?), that if they don't reply to the admin or other users within that time-frame specified in the policy, then they would get banned permanently. We don't have time for non-responsive users. Maybe we should also allow blocked users to edit their own talk pages as well, just in case they decide they need to argue their case after the ban for some reason, at least temporarily? - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 15:34, April 17, 2016 (UTC)
 * I agree with you, with a couple of minor changes. As for the "certain time", I think we just make it permanent with the message to the user to respond; if they don't reply then they block stays; if they do respond we can lift it. I think in most cases this will be the 2nd warning - the first warning stays as we usually do it with a block of a day or a week. And yes, we leave their talk page open for editing and we follow the talk page, that way they can reply at any time. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 19:57, April 17, 2016 (UTC)
 * Agreed. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 20:09, April 17, 2016 (UTC)

Non-Pixar related Trivia
I removed the non-Pixar related trivia to Johnny Worthington III, Hopper, and Mor'du since they are not related to Pixar, since such trivia has been removed from Buddy Pine. I take it that's what you're driving at, am I right?

Did I do something wrong?
I see that you undid my changes to the Galloping Geargrinder page. May I ask why?

I know it took a few tries as it was my first time editing a wiki article, but I thought it looked good when I was done.

IBM 5150 (talk) 03:53, May 20, 2016 (UTC)


 * Didn't see anywhere in that source where it stated that the Galloping Geargrinder in the movie was based off of a Buick. Thanks. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 15:41, May 20, 2016 (UTC)


 * Have you seen the Model T that railroad used prior to the Buick?  It looks nothing like the Geargrinder.


 * http://www.mtfca.com/discus/messages/50893/75118.jpg - IBM 5150 (talk) 16:38, May 20, 2016 (UTC)
 * It doesn't matter. Lasseter called it an "Old Model T." Nothing says it is a replica of anything in real life...just based upon certain things in real life. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 19:21, May 20, 2016 (UTC)

User:Gabriel P. S.
Keeps adding to Incredibles articles, what looks to me like fanon; has even engaged in edit warring over the Phylange article, restoring the exact same content after it got reverted. A warning, if not stronger action, is clearly in order. — RobertATfm (talk) 12:25, May 20, 2016 (UTC)

I don't think a warning message would be enough. Gabriel P.S. continues to do edit wars on those articles and he is not stopping, so I think he might have to be blocked for a while, so please kindly do.

Re: Bluebird565
Wiki user Bluebird565 is doing an edit war with the Monsters University (song) article, claiming that the lyric "Alma Mater" is related to the Pixar character, Mater from the car franchise, when the term actually means "university" or "college" in Latin. I left her a message about it and she ignored my message completely and continued to highlight "Mater" in the song lyric, thinking it has anything to do with Tow Mater from cars, which is does NOT, not even his customizations because I double-checked the Tow Mater article itself. You might have to block her because she won't stop reverting that edit that I undid to the Monsters University song article.

Fanon: action needed
User:Dinosaurgames has added what I think is a self-promoting and fanon link to The Good Dinosaur. I have of course reverted this, but I think further action may be needed. — RobertATfm (talk) 00:50, August 4, 2016 (UTC)

More edit warring
User:Cutie Doggy keeps editing the Long Ge page, changing "who" to "that", despite it persistently being changed back by others (and despite being told that the Cars characters are anthropomorphic, so "who" is the correct term). Maybe something needs to be done. (And incidentally, instead of having to post separately to all admins' talk pages, wouldn't it be better to have a Requests for Admin Attention page?) — RobertATfm (talk) 19:45, August 9, 2016 (UTC)


 * I'll look at it. Also, you probably don't need to post in all admin pages. I watch Jeff's page and he probably watches mine.  So if you post in his talk page, I'll see it anyway, and maybe vice-versa (he'd have to confirm that...Jeff do you watch this? :) ). - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 21:13, August 9, 2016 (UTC)
 * Yes, I watch both yours and Gray Catbird's talk pages. I agree, writing on one of the admins talk page should be sufficient. Thanks, --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 03:36, August 10, 2016 (UTC)

Another problem
User:Alexvee, who created the Notable Deaths in Pixar page, recently (about two hours ago as I type) blanked it, and to judge by his edit summary this was a pure spite action; despite his naming it "Notable Deaths", his idea of appropriate content is more along the lines of "any and all deaths", and he doesn't like it when his edits get reverted (even though one such revert was by an admin). This may not have been intended as deliberate vandalism, but to my mind it comes to the same thing, and in any case the underlying attitude is not a healthy one for any wiki editor to have (maybe he thinks that because he created the page, he somehow "owns" it, a problem I have come across before). At the very least, he needs to be monitored in case this needs to be stopped from progressing further. — RobertATfm (talk) 23:24, September 27, 2016 (UTC)
 * OK, we'll keep an eye on this user. Thanks. That page name is just asking for edit wars, though....with differing opinions on "notable"....do we really need it? We already have a Deceased Character category. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 13:20, September 28, 2016 (UTC)
 * That's a great question, why do we need the page at all when we have the Deceased Character category? When I saw he created the page, I thought that same thing but decided to just leave it. But I can see it being a continuous problem, so maybe we should get rid of it? --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 14:38, September 28, 2016 (UTC)
 * I think we should. Especially if it is already causing issues. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 14:47, September 28, 2016 (UTC)
 * OK, page has been deleted. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 12:10, September 29, 2016 (UTC)

Ball
The ball from "Creature Comforts" was no ordinary ball. The director once stated in an interview that it was tribute to PIXAR, having a slightly Luxo Jr.-like ball roll up next to the dog whom he thought looked a bit like a lamp. Here is a clip from the episode in question 1. Jenkins92 (talk) 08:21, October 19, 2016 (UTC)
 * That might be, but there's a difference between making an appearance and being a tribute. I don't know about RaptorWiki, but I'd be fine if you put in a statement in the trivia section saying this, with a link to either the interview or this clip. But, it's not an appearance of the Pixar ball. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 11:33, October 19, 2016 (UTC)
 * That sounds fine to me as well. Thanks! - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 12:56, October 19, 2016 (UTC)

Rather than get into all of the metrics and numbers (though I can present some of those if you're interested), I'll keep it simple. I'd like upgrade the Infobox templates themselves so that they can be accessible on any current and future platform. Maintaining them if you want to make changes should be very simple.

I have added some Drafts of Infoboxes in Special:Insights/nonportableinfoboxes, which you can modify or approve early if you'd like. There are guides and resources on the Portability Hub for the structure and styles that can help you modify them. I've put the styling here. Everything should work properly as set up, so if we don't hear back from you, we'll assume there were no problems and will come back and approve the work as-is on or after October 31.

Also, if you have any questions or concerns, please let me know. Thanks! Yada  Dark   http://static1.wikia.nocookie.net/picsou/fr/images/d/db/Emoticon_Picsou.gif   http://vignette4.wikia.nocookie.net/sedali/images/f/fd/Vanguard.png/revision/latest/scale-to-width-down/20?cb=20160826204149  20:39, October 23, 2016 (UTC)


 * I'd like to see what Dvcnut has to say. Thanks! - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 11:19, October 24, 2016 (UTC)


 * No problem if this needs an admin consensus. Thanks for your answer! Yada   Dark   http://static1.wikia.nocookie.net/picsou/fr/images/d/db/Emoticon_Picsou.gif   http://vignette4.wikia.nocookie.net/sedali/images/f/fd/Vanguard.png/revision/latest/scale-to-width-down/20?cb=20160826204149  11:29, October 24, 2016 (UTC)
 * I'll try to look at this in the next day or two and get back to you. Thanks! --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 11:52, October 24, 2016 (UTC)
 * Why don't you go ahead and approve Film? That one probably gets used the most so if we don't hear any complaints after a few days, then you can go ahead and approve the rest. --Jeff (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 00:06, October 30, 2016 (UTC)

Permanently block CARTOONSROCK
CARTOONSROCK is at it again with him making unecessary edits to many Pixar articles. Whoever unblocked him shouldn't have AT ALL. He needs to be permanently blocked because his behavior is NEVER going to change. He has had enough chances, so please consider permanently blocking him before this escalates. Thanks.

 * Jeff had him on a 3 month block, and that expired. I also see Jeff's response on his talk page. Thanks. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 17:50, November 12, 2016 (UTC)

Problem edits with Toy Story 2
User:Spider-Man54321 has today, for the fourth time deleted the "Foreshadowing" section from Toy Story 2. He never gives any reason for deleting such an important section (one of the main story-telling tropes), and the first time he did it I assumed that it must have been a mistake, but I now think it's vandalism. Can something be done? — RobertATfm (talk) 22:23, November 13, 2016 (UTC)
 * I don't think it is vandalism. But we'll see. Thanks. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 01:20, November 14, 2016 (UTC)

Yet more problem edits
This time due to incompetence rather than malice, but needs to be dealt with all the same.

User:Knighthood45 edited the gallery of the Buddy Pine page; unfortunately, instead of uploading a new image as he should have, he carelessly overwrote File:Image.jpeg, thereby causing the Buddy Pine image to appear on the Inside Out page as well.

I have of course reverted both changes, but I think two admin actions would be advisable; RobertATfm (talk) 22:34, November 15, 2016 (UTC)
 * 1) Rename "image.jpeg" to something descriptive, such as "Gloom.jpg".
 * 2) Lock-down the over-generic name "image.jpeg" so that this sort of thing can't happen again.

Image policy?
As you have probably seen, I have created a draft Image Policy listing all the faults I have seen with images on this wiki. (In addition to which, the "no generic filenames" policy is already in use on at least one other wiki, for the reason stated.) What do you (and the other two admins) think? As written, it's ready to go (save only for any further changes/additions which may be needed); it could be implemented in a minute or so, by moving it into the "Pixar Wiki" namespace, editing it to uncomment the "policy" categories at the bottom, and removing the "Sandbox" category. — RobertATfm (talk) 01:10, November 24, 2016 (UTC)
 * Hey. I'm kind of surprised that there wasn't already a policy in place. I'd add something about sufficient resolution as well. We'll see what Jeff thinks also. Thanks! - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 01:14, November 24, 2016 (UTC)

Image rename request
Could the image File:Abstractpng please be renamed to "File:Dot_Tuck_and_Roll.png"? I've just had a good look at the painting in the background, and it is definitely of Dot, Tuck and Roll, therefore not "abstract" in any correct usage of the term. (It may be surrealist or impressionist or something, I don't know enough about art styles to be sure, but it certainly isn't non-representational, as the present name claims it is.) Only one page would need to be edited as a result of the rename. — RobertATfm (talk) 07:25, November 24, 2016 (UTC)

Spurious pages?
Do we really need the THX page? OK, so THX is used on Pixar DVDs, but to my mind the connection is tangential at best. It's like having a page on the DVD format because Pixar movies are issued on that format, or on Green because A Bug's Life has a lot of green in it.

And we surely don't need Template:Company, which was created solely for the THX page. — RobertATfm (talk) 04:05, January 4, 2017 (UTC)


 * No, definitely not... Thanks. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 15:50, January 5, 2017 (UTC)

Recently uploaded images
All uploaded by User:Zachary Murray. The first two are unusable due to being spoiled by purple watermarks (and in any case are duplicates of the same image which we already have); the third is probably unusable due to a large block of text; and any which are not deleted need to be renamed to remove the spurious "& Zachary". Does this user reckon that because he uploaded these images, that he therefore "owns" them? They remain the property of Pixar, regardles of who uploaded them. — RobertATfm (talk) 09:59, February 6, 2017 (UTC)

Another vandal
User:Michael917 has only ever done vandal edits, never anything constructive. Clearly action needs to be taken. — RobertATfm (talk) 20:11, February 22, 2017 (UTC)
 * 1) He vandalised Mr. Phillips and Mrs. Phillips, inserting false (or at any rate unsourced) first names whilst removing most of the content.
 * 2) Four weeks ago, he vandalised Ellie Fredricksen, changing all instances of her name to "Elizabeth" — including at least one which was an image file name, thereby removing that image from the page. This despite the fact that the second Trivia item states clearly that this character is named after Pete Docter's daughter, who is called Elie, not "Elizabeth".
 * 3) Today he contradicted himself by changing the name again, to "Ella".
 * 4) He has also altered the Carl Fredricksen article. In the light of all his other edits, I have reverted that one as well.

The Pixar Theory — again
New user User:The Movie Detectives has yet again re-created this page, ignoring the "recreating a page which was previously deleted" warning. Not only that, but they copied it from Wikipedia without acknowledgement, which is a violation of the BY-SA bit of the Wikipedia CC-BY-SA licence. (And the game was given away by the clumsy way in which they did the copy; converting the rendered HTML back to MediaWiki code, instead of copying the code directly from the source page, which would have been easier, quicker and cleaner.) I think something needs to be done about this page, and probably about the user. — RobertATfm (talk) 09:04, March 13, 2017 (UTC)


 * I already locked the page before I got this. Thanks. - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 11:38, March 13, 2017 (UTC)

Mater DOES have Asperger's or high functioning autism because he has this vast encyclopedic savant like knowledge on things that interest him!! I'm not lying. One of the major symptoms of having high functioning autism is having a vast encyclopedic savant like knowledge on things that interest someone! PLEASE let me put that in the Mater trivia because HE DOES have high functioning autism! It's been proven many times and it is extremely hinted in the Cars films that he IN FACT DOES have high functioning autism!


 * Do you have a source from Pixar? If so, provide the link with the statement. Thanks! - RaptorWiki (Ryan) 12:03, April 7, 2017 (UTC)

Mater is also very similar to Raymond in the movie Rain Man, because just like Raymond, Mater has an encyclopedic knowledge on narrow topics, and is a high functioning autistic/idiot-savant (he has an intellectual disability), as John Lasseter has said so in many Cars 2 interviews.

Hello,

This user has been randomly renaming Cars character pages by deleting surnames or just changing the name completely (e.g., Matthew "True Blue" McCrew, Andrea, Rudy Oaks, etc.) Can you please block him?
