Hey, Calebchiam, I would like to re-request and ask you for bureaucrat rights again seeing as you adjured me last time, and rightly so, I was extremely acerbic towards you and had an egregious attitude, and, for that, I'm sorry. I've had the stationary position of admin here on the Supernatural wiki for a while now, and I will not cogently try an convince your hand, but I believe I better understand the standards and qualifications for bureaucratic rights now. And, as I understand it, a bureaucratic position enables the user to make management corrections all over wikia. I will not inimically insult or attack you again if you still deny me, but I would at least like to know what I can do to improve to, at some point in time, attain the rights. Thanks. -- [[User:ImperiexSeed|ImperiexSeed]], 7:00 PM, August 5th 2014

Sorry about the late response to both of you, this year has just been extra-busy for me as I move on to the next phase of my life, but that's not really important here. Firstly, while I admire both of you in your dedication to the Wiki, frankly, I just don't feel comfortable with giving you (Imperiex) the ability to sysop other users. You have a history of bad judgement and you're not all that mature, sorry. I'm simply not confident that you'll have the sense to use it wisely, though I do not doubt your sincerity. I would like someone else to be a bureaucrat though, ideally someone with a good understanding of Wiki process and a level head, but I haven't seen anyone with that kind of experience around here yet.

Josh, I wouldn't have given the sysop tools to you, because while your intentions are good, you are new and you don't really understand how to use the tools appropriately. MerryStar has overstepped herself in giving you the tools per Imperiex's request, but I suppose that's my fault too for not responding quickly enough. I am uncomfortable with the idea of letting you keep them, given that you've already used your blocking powers to block Imperiex at one point (d'oh?) and you are not that mature either (at least based on how I've seen you conduct yourself on the Wiki), so I'm tempted to simply remove them. I will give you the benefit of doubt for now, but know that I will not hesitate to desysop you if you misuse these tools. Cheers to both of you.

Save Gabriel campaign needs help

Hi.
I was wondering if it's possible to post a link to Save Gabriel online petition somewhere on the site.
http://www.petitionvoice.com/save-gabriel-petition.html
Its purpose is to bring Gabriel back to Supernatural, and it would be great help if this link was somewhere on a site with as much traffic as Supernatural Wiki. I hope it's not too much inconvenience.
Sincerely,
Kaworu

Request

Since you are capable of deleting articles, I guess you have the power of an admin., or something similar to that (I apologize for not knowing where to see a user's status). I therefore have a small request; edit the menu to the right so that the fifth season is included. I would also recomment to have a "regular/main characters" there, as well. If you have the power to change it, it should be written below the menu "Edit this menu". If you don't, could you please redirect me to someone who is can do it and who will most likely answer my request, be it rejection or acceptation?

Thank you for your attention.

Penamesolen 05:03, May 5, 2010 (UTC)

You can find administrators using Special:Listusers (although most of them have gone inactive). Anyway, I have made some changes to the sidebar as request, do let me know if you want any further changes to be made. Thanks! Calebchiam Talk 05:59, May 5, 2010 (UTC)

Um, I take it as that you reply to each other on each talk page, right? I'm not familiar with it (the other wiki have us talk to each other at the talk page where the topic started), so I just have to confirm it.

Thank you. I believe the menu should have directions such as those, especially because the characters you included are regulars and important for the plot. I could also recommend another directing to the main races (Demons, Angels, Humans[?], more[?]) and possibly recurring devices, such as the Impala, Ruby's knife, the Colt, the holy oil and the Lower Key of Solomon or whatever. Out from the two other wikis I work on, it seems like they put in the basic pages on the menu; "these are articles about subjects you should know about at the end of the series/should know about to follow the series" or something.

Again, it is simply from other wikis, and as such I'm not sure if anyone would want to follow it up here, but it is only suggestions. Since we are close to the end now (or at least the end of the Apocalypse Arc), I wanted to try doing something for the wiki, since I think it is a good show.

Hi, could you please check here? Thanks! --Darth Stefan (Talk) 14:52, July 6, 2010 (UTC)

Thank You For Sysopping!

First of all, I'd like to thank you for the trust you have placed in me by making me an Admin.

I shall try my best to breathe life into this Wiki again. It has been neglected for far too long and as such, putting it back on the rails will be one hell of a job. Even then, I shall take on the mantle and contribute heart and soul to the Wiki, making it a far better one than it is today. For that, I will have to bank on the co-operation of other editors and collaborate with them on projects. This Wiki also needs some more editors: the traffic is far too sluggish. For that we will have to advertise the Wiki more. If you could show me the ropes to advertise a Wiki, then I'll be very much grateful to you.

That's all for now. Once again, thank you (and Kyle) for your trust in me. Hallichester... 13:46, December 27, 2010 (UTC)

Sysops

Hi there! It's me again. As you can see, the Wiki has been given a whole new look. I did it together with User:Thesilentpoethosea, who designed it all. As such, I have approached you for a promotion for him. I know I have just been promoted to Sysop myself and asking for a promotion for someone else may seem a little rushed but he's really good at Wiki stuff and is ready to take on the responsibility for this Wiki.


So, if you could promote him to Admin as well, then the two of us can really give this Wiki a real kick-off. Please let me know what you think. Thanks in advance! -- Admin // Hallichester 18:16, December 30, 2010 (UTC)

Hello; Admin requirements

Hey there!! I hope you enjoyed Episode 13 as much as I did. Firstly, I currently work online on other wikis concerning the tv series Supernatural. Secondly, is it currently possible for me to become an Admin here, and if so is there room on the Admin board and how should i approach doing so?

About me, I have seen every Supernatural episode to date, I have studied and constructed and created many pages on other wikis about the respective. I don't know about others here, but when it comes to Canon and accuracy about Supernatural, I am very strict and straightforward. For example: If the show itself, characters or even the producers haven't said something than it isn't Canon, at least that's how I see it. Leave your post on my talkpage.

Deletion of a page.

Hey there!! I just wanted to inform you that I just discovered while working on the Vessels page that there is another page on this wiki simply titled Vessel. Could you please delete the page titled Vessel, as it makes no sense to have two separate pages for the same thing.

Hey there!! I seriously can't wait for tonight's episode. I have been very, very busy editing this wiki; ensuring that everything is up to date and that pages read smoothly and are Canonical in all ways possible. So because of this, I think that I deserve Admin rights; can I become an Admin here now?

Supernatural

Hello, while I normally only work with fanfictions one of my "favorite shows is Supernatural. I was wondering as, since I am not an admin, and it will be my first times edits. I was wondering if I could make the page that describes the Gods? The reason I ask is that Angels, Archangels, Demon, Fairies, Alphas, Demons, and other Supernatural creatures have their own page. It justs seem odd that almost every other species, have a page and they don't. Now, while Pagan gods, and to a lesser extent "God" haven't been shown or appearred much it would be nice to give them a page at least to describle their history, and their known and specualted powers. Regardless, I won't edit or create its page until you say I can. Thank You and have a nice day.: The Twilight of Your Despair 15:03, March 4, 2011 (UTC)﻿


I have started, to make the Gods page. I am doing some more research on them. Now while, it lacks a template and a picture yet. I am working on it.: The Twilight of Your Despair 20:16, March 5, 2011 (UTC)

Adminship

Hi, apparently I've read somewhere that you guys are in need of sysops, due to the fact that there are times when you can't make it and vandalism goes unnoticed.. I see this place as a ripe ground for personal images & vanity pages that obviously need to be deleted, and I see myself as a tool for this job. I have experienced anti-vandal work on the Runescape Wiki, and I've also been given the rollback tool there. Basically, I'm hoping you guys can give me adminship for help on this wiki.

Adminship

I've been working here for a few months now, and I was wondering, if I could become an admin here.. Take a look at my edits, and you'll see my thoroughness. I believe I have what it takes, and I know absolutely everything about the show! -- ImperiexSeed, 10:49 PM, Octover 14th 2011

I'm already an admin on another wiki, so I know how it all works. -- ImperiexSeed, 11:10 PM, Octover 14th 2011

Should I create a page named "Amortality"?

I would like to create a page that may raise some dispute, so I figured I'd consult you, even though I'm an admin myself. The word amortality means having never been born, and can't die.. To me, this seems like God and Death would be considered that, as they've always existed. Also, it's separate from immortality, in that immortals could've been born, they're just unable to die.. So, should I, or should not create this? -- ImperiexSeed, 10:10 PM, October 15th 2011

Well, I've seen it used before, but okay.. Fine, I won't create it, mainly because I don't want to got through all the effort and have it just be disputed against all the time. Besides, if you say it isn't a word, than I'd feel weird making something that's not even real. Thanks for your thoughts. -- ImperiexSeed, 9:13 AM, October 16th 2011

Would you like to browse episodes with a map?

Hi, I'm a member of Wikia's Community Support Team, and we think Supernatural would be the perfect wiki to test out a new feature. I've described the whole thing over here and would love your input. Thanks! --Dopp WikiaStaff.png (help forum | blog) 22:00, November 18, 2011 (UTC)

Bureaucrat rights request

Hello there. I, ImperiexSeed, would like to promote somebody to admin, but unfortunately, it won't let me. Hey, so um, while I'm here could you make me a bureaucrat, please? -- ImperiexSeed, 4:53 PM, June 27th 2012

Are you frickin' kidding me?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! No, dude, you make me a bureaucrat right now. You obviously understand very little of the procedure. See, I, upon my own request, was turned into an admin some time ago by TheSilentPoetHoesa, and since then, I've made so many good contributions; I've started pages, helped out, assisted others, that sort of thing. In other words, I was a good little admin, you even ask other users, like General MGD 106, and they'll tell you....but then MisterRandom2 came along. At first, I loved his contributions, but then, he started preying on me, monitoring my work, and reverting every edit of mine. After like the 80th time of asking him to tone it down it a bit, he persisted. I brought it to the attention of Trrea, among other Wikia Staff. I even sent in a statement in to Special:contact, and got a reply from MerryStar, and she was with me. What, you expect me to wait 2 years before asking again? I've done so well, and I'm not waiting that long. No, I want them now. -- ImperiexSeed, 1:20 PM, June28th 2012
And no, I will not direct him to you. Make me. -- ImperiexSeed, 5:11 PM, June 28th 2012
Maybe so, but, oh nevermind. Oh, that's right. My bad, then. Alright, thanks. -- ImperiexSeed, 12:16 PM, June 29th 2012

Hello, Caleb. I got a simple request: Can I be made into an admin on the Smallville wiki? See, the only active one, Kanemekun, hasn't be doing anything for quite some time, he doesn't reply to any of my urgent messages, and another one, Markiology or something, is completely MIA. I love the show, and I'd like to made into an admin. -- ImperiexSeed, 7:54 PM, July 16th 2012

Hm, well you're a bureaucrat. I guess only Staff members possess extended powers--ones who can achieve making anyone into admins anywhere. Alright, I'll do that, but that could take a while. Speaking of bureaucrat, how am I doing? I haven't done anything provocative or anything of the sort, so now may I be made a bureaucrat? -- ImperiexSeed, 10:40 PM, July 16th 2012
Alright, here's it as I understand it: First off, the status as a bureaucrat induces even more power and intensifies the role of a user, however it doesn't give me more say or the right or privilege to boast or misuse editing prowess. Prolonged petty arguments shouldn't result in misbehavior or apprehensiveness. It imbues a user's title with potential dangerous powers if not used right, but I assure you that won't be a problem. I would like to give it a try. -- ImperiexSeed, 11:34 PM, July 16th 2012
Oh, um....promoting other users to beyond Chat moderator, but other than that I'm basically unsure. I adjust abruptly (i.e. I learn quickly), and I want to be given the chance. Please. -- ImperiexSeed, 11:46 PM, July 16th 2012
Dude, no. Stop, I know what I'm talking about. And no, it's not for the status. It basically entails like an Admin's accessories but on higher scale. Wherein one can create and assign bots, do higher promoting, and such. I'd be willing to learn what it fully entails. Don't assume you know my intent or reasoning again, well unless, of course, you know what you're talking about. :/ -- ImperiexSeed, 11:58 PM, July 16th 2012
I just told you, it involves bots creation and assignation, and overall user promotion. And you just don't like me. You're ruling is unjustly unfair. If MisterRandom2 asked, you accept giving him them. Wow. -rolls eyes- -- ImperiexSeed, 12:07 AM, July 17th 2012
So you admit, you would make MisterRandom2 one immediately if he asked. And plus, before, you said you'd grant me them if I asked later and had changed during time, and I've obviously matured. And then when I asked, you start repeatedly questioning me, antagonizing me of every detail of what being a bureaucrat means. Look, I can handle it. -- ImperiexSeed, 12:17 AM, July 17th 2012

Hi, I need some assistance and explanation. Sorry to, er, say waste your time, but something rather bizarre is occurring on both the Smallville and Supernatural wikis. A lot of the time I edit, it automatically added Concepts category to pages I edit even though I didn't add the category, and it seems to be doing this to other users as well. Also, on the Supernatural wiki, when I edit it says I added categories that are already there. Could you fix this somehow? Maybe it's a malfunction. I tried contacting Smallville's only active admin, Kanamekun, but he's no where to be found, and asked MerryStar on Wikia. -- ImperiexSeed, 6:30 PM, July 19th 2012

Glad this is over

I am glad we managed to reach a compromise, I've moved the information onto the Sam and Dean page, although I will admit I summerised some of it, if you wish to over look it first before we put the final nail in this coffin, go ahead. Truthfully I never thought it would go this far, I assumed that it would be a short discussion, that would quickly end when one of us convinced the other of his opion, as it has been in the past on all other pages, that I have been involved in the discusion of deletion.

I think I should also note, that this is not my first Wiki, before coming to this one, I was a major contributer on five or six others, aswell as minor contributer on about a dozen more, however I have never delt with an issue of this manitude before. I also want to thank you for explaining the third party sources bit, something I had previously misread.

Okay, I also appreicate you being frank with me, and I'll take note of your advice, but respectfully, I must state I still aim to make sure this wiki is for facts and cannon information. However I do not have your experiance, so maybe my oppion's will shift in time, we're just have to see. General MGD 109 (talk) 18:07, September 21, 2012 (UTC)

Live Chat

Since the chat option was already enabled here, I made up a little invite for users to jump on and chat live each week as the show unfolds. I'm wondering if you wouldn't mind having it on the main page - perhaps above the "what will you be watching banner. If not, that's completely up to you, several wikis have started holding these weekly live chats with great success - and I thought it might be something that would work here as well.

Supernatural Wiki: Head Leader, The Big Cheese, The Big Boss, The Alpha Dog, Numero Uno, etc.

Are you the main man here on this Wiki? I am asking because I am anxious to make any edits to the Wiki out of the consequence I might anger the othe users. I looked at the problems you had in the past and I know some admins get reaaaaaalllllllyyy pissed off if something of theirs is tampered with and you guys made nearly everything on this Wiki. Plus I know about that Imperiex guy and he is sure to rip my head off if I make a wrong move so could you tell me what I can edit. My Singaporian hombre? Consus, the Erudite God (talk) 00:14, November 3, 2012 (UTC)

A problem with a new user

Hi, Calebchiam, I am having some hostility from the new user Consus, the Erudite God. He recently opened an discussion on the Lucifer talk page, suggesting pages be restricted to registered users only, to prevent them from being tampered by Wiki Contributers with their varied opinions. I gave my own thoughts on the matter, stating the wiki has done fine with Anons being allowed to edit, so there is no reason to go to such extremes. However, Consus had previously began undoing my edits on the Michael and the Lucifer pages, repeatedly stating "You Anons better be willing to get banned before you pull a stunt like that (editing a page without permission). Trust me, Admins get pissed quick." I tried handling the situation myself by telling him that Anons are allowed to contribute to the wiki just as much as registered users, but his response was "If you register yourself you can edit the same way regardless. You guys are more trouble than you are worth. Just leave it alone fornow." Afterwards I pointed out, that his reasoning for undoing my edits is preduices towards unregistered users. Today, he posted a message on my talk page, saying, "Fine, than deal with Imperiex and let him bite your head off. You'd probably just get into a long winded argument thats ends and rage and foolish agression. Go ahead, be my guest." ImperiexSeed eventually got involved, stating "No, I am not going to bite his head off, that is a quite inconspicuous assumption. He is more than welcome to edit on the wiki, but if he makes an inaccurate edit, be sure I'll redo it (Though I question as what he meant by that based on my past experiences with him)." on Consus' talk page Although I am grateful to ImperiexSeed for coming to my defense, I feel that he won't be able do much to change Consus' mind on his ideaology as he seems to have disdain towards him for how he administrates this wiki. Recently, when I told him I rarely see devious Wiki Contributters on the Registered User discussion, he countered that he sees them on another wiki he primarly works on and later insuated that I was one as I well with these exact words, "In fact, I see on right now," which I take as a personal offense. In conclusion, I fear this will not just go away easily like some disputes would as Consus has made it clear to ImperiexSeed that he is adamant to Anons being regulated or extinguished from the wiki. Can you please speak to him, so this can be put to rest? Thank you for your time. 108.247.158.61 19:10, November 3, 2012 (UTC)

Anons never tell the whole truth. He took out the segment about Micheal being Nigh Omnipotent along with Lucifer. He took out an important segment of the page based on his own beliefs on the matter. He never asked for consent first or considered the thoughts of the users who put it there. It's that arrogance which made me reprimand him and all Anons like him who believe they can do whatever they wish.Consus, the Erudite God (talk) 20:48, November 3, 2012 (UTC)

In my defense, Consus never provided counter arguments as why the segments I removed from both pages should remain and undid my edits solely on the grounds that I (an unregistered user) was editing without permission from an admin. In addition, I feel he is out of line for saying he was made to reprimand me for alledgely doing whatever I wish on the wiki. My only intent was to correct what I believe was being decribed as "nigh-omnipotent" to be a overestimation of Michael and Lucifer's power respectively which neccessitated the segments' removal from both pages. For the record, I have since concided to ImperiexSeed and General MGD 109 on the matter for the sake of avoiding an argument with them, so I see that to no longer be relevant. 108.247.158.61 22:13, November 3, 2012 (UTC)

"I see that to no longer be relevant". "I believed it was an overestimation of Michael and Lucifer's power respectively". It's all about You isn't it? You let your ego get the best of you and acted without any outside consideration. I am out of line? You are the one who is out of line along with anyone who acts like you. Allegedly doing whatever you wish? You were doing what you wished, there was nothing "allegedly" about it. You have no respect for the work of others and you act without even consulting them and you give subjective reasons for doing so. You didn't add to their work you just erased some of their efforts. It's that Arrogance I find intolerable. I am glad you settled your dispute, but you'd probably do it again in the future. Plus I don' care if you add stuff without permission from an admin, just don't erase their work without persuading them it would be appropriate Consus, the Erudite God (talk) 22:22, November 3, 2012 (UTC)

I am going be the better man and I say no more on this discussion until Calebchiam has given his thoughts, as I feel you are taking this matter way too far than needed, Consus. 108.247.158.61 22:35, November 3, 2012 (UTC)

Better man? There's that ego again. Besides, I didn't get the nickname of "Overkill" in high school for nothing you know. Besides I just stopped caring as you are an exasperating individual. From this point on you talk to yourslef or Caleb, but don't speak to me. Consus, the Erudite God (talk) 22:45, November 3, 2012 (UTC)

Hi, Calebchiam, seeing as Consus has abandoned our dispute, would you mind still providing your verdict on it? I have become quite rattled over the whole ordeal and I would like to know if you have any advice on how I could have handled the situation better. 108.247.158.61 02:28, November 4, 2012 (UTC)

Wikis are a collaborative effort; they are built with the concept of openness, sharing, and the idea that literally anyone can edit. To pre-emptively prevent an entire portion of editors (unregistered as they may be) from editing simply because they are unregistered would go against the very ethos of a Wiki.

Consus, while it is true that it is more likely that vandalism will come from anons that registered users, that is only because vandals wouldn't bother creating an account when their only intention is to vandalise. A regular anon editor is still an editor of the Wiki, a person working with the intent of bettering the Wiki and allowing it to reach a higher standard.

I have worked on a sizeable number of Wikis, and while there are troll and vandal anons who merely come on to the Wiki to destroy the work of others, there are just as many (if not more) who are first-time editors who are simply trying to correct a mistake they've found in an article. Most (if not all) editors started out as anon editors before later making an account, myself included. While registering isn't very difficult to do, people have many reasons for choosing to stay anonymous; be it to not have the hassle of owning an account, wishing to not have a name be put to their edits, or simply human preference. This is their choice and they do have a right to do so. This is my stance on the issue, so I'll leave it to you to make of it what you will.

On a more technical perspective, vandalism from anon users isn't really a problem at all. The most they can do is blank a few articles and change a few facts, following which any user can rollback those edits before the anon editor is given a block by an admin for their disruptive behaviour. In the grander scheme of things on the Wiki, the harm anons can potentially cause is minor and temporary.

I should also point out that any edits can be made to an article without consultation of previous editors. This is the case unless there is a specific discussion and consensus in which editors came together and decided that this was how they wished the information to be presented (or something of that nature). Otherwise, all articles are open to editing, change, and improvement.

In the case of disputes with a certain legitimate edit (for obvious reasons, this does not apply to vandalism), the article is reverted to the original state before the edit was made, and a discussion must be started on the respective talkpage to discuss the legitimacy of the edit and whether the change should be kept or discarded.

Finally, let me unequivocally state that anons will never be barred from editing the Wiki. We keep a few pages continually protected (e.g. the Mainpage, or pages related to the Wiki's design) but otherwise all mainspace articles are and will always be open to all users, anon or registered. Furthermore, Wikia themselves would stop us if we attempted to lock the Wiki and only allow registered users to edit. I hope this clears things up, cheers! Calebchiam Talk 07:43, November 4, 2012 (UTC)

Unnderstood, Caleb, thank you for resolving this dispute and I hope there will be no futher bad blood between Consus and myself. 108.247.158.61 07:52, November 4, 2012 (UTC)

The archangel page...

Hey, Caleb. I'm not sure if you are already aware of this, but the archangel page is locked because of "unnecessary tampering". I wasn't active on the Wiki when it was first locked so I'm unclear on some details, I've looked at the history, and there has been no incident of persistant vandalism, in which a temporary lock would be necessary. This is being debated on the article's talk page right now, but could you please unlock it and/or put in your two cents on the matter on the talk page? Thank you!

Becoming an Admin

Hello there. I am SilverRain. I was wondering if I may become an Admin. Since joining, I have edited several cases of typos and vandalism, so I feel like I have a good edit history. My goal in becoming an Admin is not authority or anything of the sort, but rather to help make the Wiki a good source for Supernatural information. Since I visit often, I usually help with the above mentioned situations. Being an admin would help me perform faster edits and rollbacks of malicious edits that I occasionally see. If I am making this request in the wrong place, I apologize.

Anyways, please let me know on my talk page. I look for to hearing from you! Peace out, SilverRain (talk) 02:31, November 28, 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for replying to my request! Now that I have stable internet access, I can actively participate in the wiki affairs. Though I didn't think that edit number mattered so much. I noticed that one bureaucrat had only had 77 edits, which gave me the inpression that it wasn't about the quantity of edits, but the quality of them. But again, thanks for replying! I will continue to work hard! SilverRain (talk) 00:58, December 5, 2012 (UTC)

Issue with messages...

Hey, Caleb. I'm sorry for bothering you, but I - no, ImperiexSeed, this anon and I - would greatly appreciate your input on an issue. The anon in question believes Imperiex tampered with one of his messages, which the latter denies. The only way things can be resolved peacefully is if we get your final thoughts on the issue. If you want more details, you can look at my talk page and ImperiexSeed's talk page. Thank you in advance. Best, Savannah Star 05:27, December 2, 2012 (UTC)

Affiliates

Hello Caleb, My name is Robyn and I am Admin on the Charmed Wiki and Buffyverse Wiki. I am finally applying Affiliate pages to both sites, and was curious if you'd want to take part? It's a great way to cross-promote Wiki's. I figured Supernatural, BTVS and Charmed could be connected easy, since they were all WB shows at one point. This is my Buffyverse page/affiliate link, if you want to see how I have done mine. BUFFYVERSE LINK Let me know what you think. I'd love to add Supernatural to both of mine :) Take care, QueenBuffy

Hey there Caleb, I was just wondering if all the wikis we are affiliating with are supernatural-related (based on your reply to QueenBuffy)? I just find it weird, because that would mean we would have very limited affiliations. Other wikias affiliate based on genres, and I really think it is a good way to promote our wiki, especially to those who enjoy similar shows (like me). I see that we have links to other CW shows (even those not the least bit within the genre of Supernatural, not to mention not all of the CW wikis even use the links--i.e., the Nikita wiki and the Vampire Diaries wiki), so I just don't understand why we won't accept affiliation with the Buffyverse wikia, when the two shows did share a network at some point, and Buffy the Vampire Slayer very much influenced the show we love (even the producers of the show are keen to make references and cast stars from the Buffyverse). FTWinchester (talk) 03:57, June 18, 2013 (UTC)

Well, I understand that the wiki operates on a consensus, so if it's just me, then I know the case is not that strong. But yeah, personally I would want to, mainly because there are only around four to five contributors active at a time (I think it is better if we have more contributors, which I think would lead to more traffic), and the Buffyverse wiki has really excellent articles, coverage, and policies in writing, categorizing, etc. (as it's very difficult to find an article with even just a single typo!). It is also from the Buffyverse wiki that I found inspiration in improving our info banner templates. However, I do respect the fact that I do not represent the whole wiki. So, I guess I'm leaving out the decision to you, for your experience and status as an admin. I hope this case could be reopened in the future, though. FTWinchester (talk) 04:26, June 18, 2013 (UTC)

I would, but the lack of support would seem to make it moot. I know there is another contributor aside from me working on both wikis, but I can't actually recall his/her username, or if he/she is still active, since I only stumbled upon him/her while randomly browsing. Looking for support from other contirbutors in this wiki would also appear to be nigh inexistent, since we have very few active contributors to begin with, and I don't think those few active are concerned with affiliating (much to my chagrin) with other wikis. So I suppose I'll just wait for an opportunity in the future. FTWinchester (talk) 04:58, June 18, 2013 (UTC)

I found them (just realized there were two other), and it's Damon-Balthazar-Salvatore, and WarGrowlmon18, although whether or not they are still active on both, I am yet to find out. Still, thanks for keeping the discussion open. Cheers! FTWinchester (talk) 05:09, June 18, 2013 (UTC)

A discussion on the Supernatural Wiki's talk page

Hi, Calebchiam, I just wanted to bring your attention to  a discussion titled Attention All Active Users and Admin on the main talk page. Sybil, the user who started it, has given extensive ideas on how to improve the wiki such as giving Achivement Points to users for being active and and users earning Badges for particulary acoomplishments as well as adding tools to the wiki such as dictionary.com, thesaurus.com and citationmachine.net. Seeing as you have been trying to improve the wiki yourself such as seting policies, I thought you would like to give your imput. 108.225.236.91 07:57, February 8, 2013 (UTC)

Narrative articles

Hey there. Just curious. Other wikis use dates (even if it just meant the year) or events to narrate the events of a story. I was just thinking if we should be doing the same, as opposed to using episode titles or seasons? I know it is hard because the MOTW episodes are rarely properly documented with respect to time frame, but for major events, it may be viable? FTWinchester (talk) 15:34, February 13, 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for bringing it to my attention, I've given some input to the discussion. Also, regarding the tools for the Wiki, I think Sybil meant that users should actively use these sites to check for spelling and for creating citations in the course of editing the Wiki, rather than adding them as actual tools on the site. Calebchiam Talk 04:54, February 9, 2013 (UTC)

Home/Main Page

Hi, I would just like to point out an error in our homepage, which says

"We are a free repository about SUPERNATURAL, an television series created by Eric Kripke, which debuted on..."

The underline is my edit. I don't think a regular user could edit the template for the homepage. Thanks!

Also, about the narrative using dates vs. episode titles/seasons, I realize upon closer inspection that dates are hard to come by in the series. FTWinchester (talk) 12:10, February 28, 2013 (UTC)

proposal

Good day, Calebchiam. I've planned on leaving this wiki, but my desire to contribute here is far too great to ignore. Anyway, for a while, I began contributing to another wikia (and before joining here, I had another account from another--the avatar wikia). I noticed that they had really good template usage that reflects in-series quotations in providing information about a certain article. So I thought that maybe we could also have them here? Below are a few ideas I've thought of.


Whoareyou Who are you?
This article is about a canonical subject whose real name is unknown, and is known only by a conjectural title, nickname or alias.


Possible use: all unnamed characters such as Eve's Vessel, Movie-Monsters Shapeshifter or even the demon Meg (whose real name was never revealed).

Casyourbible Your Bible gets more wrong than it does right.
This article contains information that are canonical but may have been retconned, or contradicted by information that are also canon.


Possible use: age of the archangels relative to metatron, demons being tortured souls but also not having one, souls being indestructible and yet purgatory souls dying, the age-old debate on Chuck being God, etc

Dickroman I might actively wipe your kind from the face of the Universe.
This article has been nominated for speedy deletion.

Possible use: replacement for the current template we have.

What do you think? FTWinchester (talk) 21:19, March 21, 2013 (UTC)

Thank you for the response, Calebchiam. They were proposals anyway, so I'm open to changes. I will start thinking about a template for conjecture. I have a problem though, these templates I posted in your talk page are in the form of scripts/codes--I don't know how to save/register/input them as actual templates here like the ones we already have. If you could guide me in saving these codes in the system as opposed to typing them individually on every page, that would really be helpful. I have most of the weekend to work on these templates.  FTWinchester (talk) 01:54, March 23, 2013 (UTC)

So I tried creating the 'Alias' template, and based the code on the existing templates such as 'Spoilers' and 'Stub', but I couldn't get it to work. FTWinchester (talk) 02:25, March 23, 2013 (UTC)

I'm sorry to flood your talk page with messages--I have just been really excited with the prospect of updating our templates. So far, I have managed to create the 'Alias' template successfully, and have used it on appropriate pages. I have also updated the 'Speedydelete' (or 'D') template with what you approved.

I take it you approve of the second template, but not on the topics I suggested it will be used on, or did I misunderstand you?

I will probably work on the conjecture template tomorrow (which as I understand your response, would be more appropriate to the topics I earlier suggested for the second template's use), and I will think of other possible templates (i.e., non-canon articles such as info from the animated series, probably one for disambiguation) we could use to help improve the wiki. Cheers, man! FTWinchester (talk) 03:08, March 23, 2013 (UTC)

Thanks! I will take note of that, and I will add them to the 'Alias' template, as I think I haven't done those information yet. You're right, the 'Misha' one was kind of inappropriate. Also, are you also inclined to withhold or reject the 'Retcon/Conflict in Canon' and 'Bias' template? FTWinchester (talk) 11:55, March 24, 2013 (UTC)

Noted. Thanks! FTWinchester (talk) 12:10, March 24, 2013 (UTC)

Hello. I've created the handful templates approved by the community. I just need some help in setting the parameters of use--I don't have much liberty with my time recently, and I don't want the project to stagnate. I've listed everything in the forum page. Please check it out. Thanks, mate! FTWinchester (talk) 05:13, April 6, 2013 (UTC)

Hello Calebchiam, I'm addresing you as I'm intrested in affiliating wikis with you :D I come from the Once Wonderland Wiki, where I'm Beaurecrat. That wiki is REALLY new, as the show hasn't aired yet, but it will grow. Thanks for your time, and I'm waiting for your respone ASAP :D

As I see, you have no affiliates (at least not in the Home Page). The idea is something likethis that goes at the bottom of the home page :D Killian Jones 22:39, April 2, 2013 (UTC)

New Admins

Hey since Umairnadeem, Kyle Nin, Healingtears14 and Hallichester aren't active anymore, could you replace them with others? Having only three active admins(namely You, ImperiexSeed and MisterRandom2) for such a large wiki can spiral out of control. For the admins I would suggest Me, FTWinchester, Kesslerbeast and General MGD 09. The reason I'm suggesting their names is not because they're my friends. Hardly. But they are the ones who are unbiased, do not get into fights and are the most active. Do let me know if I can be considered or not.RaghavD The One and Only 09:43, June 1, 2013 (UTC)

Sure. Take your time.RaghavD The One and Only 16:49, June 2, 2013 (UTC)

It's been two weeks since my request. Sure, you must be pretty busy but I only ask for 1 minute of your time. A Yes or No would suffice. If it's a No, just let me know why. That's all I ask.RaghavD Taking the ROAD less travelled 17:35, June 16, 2013 (UTC)

Ok. Nice challenge btw. Here are my thoughts on the issue.

Scenario 1: 2nd user is basically trying to improve this Wiki to the best of his efforts. It must be a coincidence that the 2nd user is correcting only the 1st one's edits. So the 1st user is at fault for not understanding the mistakes that he's been doing and not being a good sport about it. So I'd gently show him that he's not being thorough in his edits and that it's ok if others are correcting him as The End Justifies The Means.

Scenario 2: Suppose we take the 1st user's word that the 2nd user is specifically targetting him, but doing it for the benefit of this Wiki, then both need to be reprimanded. The 1st user, for not accepting his mistakes on the edits and continuosly including wrong info and the 2nd user for simply going behind a single person. Sure, the 2nd person's intentions are honest, but one would also need to be sensitive to others which the 2nd user obviously isn't. So I would ask the 1st user to be thorough enough so that there isn't much scope for a person to be just targetting him and also to have an open mind. I would let the 2nd user know that his efforts to improve this Wiki are appreciated, but would also ask him to be more sensitive in the future.RaghavD Taking the ROAD less travelled 10:09, June 17, 2013 (UTC)

I had already familiarised myself with the policies on this Wiki when I started editing and I read them again to refresh them. I would, without a doubt, abide by the rules during my tenure as an admin. RaghavD Taking the ROAD less travelled 05:25, June 18, 2013 (UTC)

Thank you for making a Sysop. I had a question: Is it possible to customize the automated Welcome message that a new user receives from the admin? and also can we see the new users who have registered on the Wikia? On the main page I checked the List of Users but found nothing about new users.RaghavD Taking the ROAD less travelled 13:48, June 20, 2013 (UTC)

Redirects

Hey there, Caleb. I just have a few questions. I just find it weird that when I hit the search bar for 'old ones', it won't even show the page on Leviathans (a page which clearly contains the keywords for the search request). I was thinking of maybe creating a redirect page from 'Old Ones' to 'Leviathans', just so we could have better search results and direction to leviathans, but I'm not sure if we allow the creation of pages here just for the sake of redirects. FTWinchester (talk) 02:20, June 25, 2013 (UTC)

Hey, thanks! You even made it yourself. Awesome. FTWinchester (talk) 11:53, June 25, 2013 (UTC)

Pages

Hey there, Caleb. I just have a few queries. I've been going over the wiki and I've found that we have several topics that we lack information on. However, I'm in two minds on whether I should just make them as a separate page, or as additional information on related pages. Normally, I'd just go for the latter, however, in some of the topics we are missing, it just doesn't seem right to cram them on another page. For example, we lack pages on rituals and spells (this is something that recently caught my attention, if you've noticed the recent flurry of activity on pages related to it). We have pages for 'Ritual' and 'Spells' but both were severely lacking, and as I've stated in the talk page of Ritual, it seeems off that we are cramming them all into that page. It feels better and sounds more logical to create separate pages and then group them into one category.

That being said, I'm more wary about topics such as summoning and banishing demons/angels, binding death and reapers, etc--all of which have been touched on in certain articles, but the act/method/procedure of the rituals themselves were never given much attention. The very rituals were relegated only as one-liners in episode synopses or on biographies of certain individuals or of a species/race's page. In fact, when I look at the category 'Ritual', I tilt my head in confusion because I know there were way more rituals in the show than those currently grouped under the category (same for Books and scrolls, which could include countless other written sources that have only appeared or have been mentioned once, although they were important plot devices). I'm asking your opinion on this because you are generally the most reliable and neutral source on what warrants a page or not. I don't have time to go through debates that could stretch for months before fruition is achieved. FTWinchester (talk) 06:05, July 5, 2013 (UTC)

Wow, there's even a term. I knew I could count on you. Thanks. FTWinchester (talk) 12:41, July 8, 2013 (UTC)

Search Results

I just remembered our previous conversation about bumping our wiki's guest visits. I tried searching for articles related to Supernatural and somehow, the Super-wiki always get priority in search results from google. I don't understand how they do that. I don't think I can personally do anything to help us get the priority but I was just curious if you have an explanation as to why this happens. For many other literature or series, their corresponding wikia shows up immediately after the wikipedia article, whereas I find our wiki's situation to be the only one to come third, after the wikipedia article and the supernaturalwiki website (or even, in some cases, the super-wiki comes first). FTWinchester (talk) 02:18, July 22, 2013 (UTC)

I have had similar experiences, FTWinchester. Whenever I want go on this wiki, I actually have to type "castiel (or other) supernatural"  on Bing just to find it easily.  OItherwise if seach "supernatual wiki" I only get Super-Wiki at the top of  the first page for the search results, wheras the last I checked, this one was at the same spot on the second page. 107.194.27.39 05:16, July 22, 2013 (UTC)

That wiki is so damn (pardon me) popular. I believe that it is because of them allowing fandom into the site as well. Fanfics are also allowed. I mean they've got a bunch of people checking the internet 24 hours for any small info on the show. They are on Twitter, Tumblr, they've even got their own Wikipedia page!. Content wise we are better, but we lose on popularity. When Lucifer Rising aired, that wiki started a #luciferiscoming tag. It created a furore because religious fanatics lead by the stupid P.Diddy, thought that satanists were trying to take over Twitter and retaliated with a #Godishere tag. It was all over the internet. It even got mentioned by an author of Supernatural tie in novels as his research source. They were acknowledged by CW themselves. Today I created an account on that Wiki. I was just one of the 20 something people with a new account today. We hardly have one new account per day. Don't get me wrong. I love this site more than that. Just stating facts. RaghavD Taking the ROAD less travelled 13:52, July 24, 2013 (UTC)

Wasn't Misha the one that started the hashtag? But anyway, I agree. They do have more articles because they allow fanfics and other fanon into their site, which must be shooting up their visits and popularity. Frankly, I also visit their page because I need to check episode transcripts from time to time, and their minutiae section is entertaining. Still, it's just a bit disappointing, though. Throughout season 8, we were more updated with the articles in lore, but in the end, we still lose out. FTWinchester (talk) 14:39, July 24, 2013 (UTC)

Hmm, as far as I know, SEO (search-engine optimisation) is based on a whole host of factors. One thing is originality of content, because search engines can tell if a page has simply copied content from another site, and that would lower its search ranking. Intra-site links improve SEO rankings too, if I remember correctly. Also, one should note that search engine results differ from user to user, since the sites you visit most often will automatically get a higher ranking - all part of Google's tailoring of their system to a person's preferences. And like you've mentioned, site popularity is a part of it as well. If you want more details, you'd have to approach Wikia staff, I know that they occasionally edit the Mainpage and whatnot improve its SEO. Cheers. Calebchiam Talk 14:50, July 24, 2013 (UTC)

Spin-off

Should the Supernatural spin-off push through, we are allowed to cover it, aren't we? RaghavD and I have been discussing it hereFTWinchester (talk) 12:41, July 31, 2013 (UTC)

Merchandise

I was thinking of creating a page or category for the commercial merchandise available, based on the show. I had a few questions

  1. Is it ok if I go ahead with it? That is, whether you feel it is necesary or not.
  2. DVDs are undoubtably a part of the merchandise, but I wanted to know your opinion on whether novels, comics too would come under such category or not. 

Whatever you decide, I'll abide by it. RaghavD Heck yes, I'm so ODD!! 16:44, August 17, 2013 (UTC)

Great!. I'll finish writing as many novels' plot synopses as I can. RaghavD Heck yes, I'm so ODD!! 16:13, August 21, 2013 (UTC)

Putting my name forward

Hello, I'm writing to put my name forward for a candidate if your looking for a new admin on this wiki. As a regular user who has greatly contributed to certain parts of this wiki, I feel I will be able to provide much help to improving this wiki and as such. I have a possitive relationship with most if not all the other regular users and I continually get involved with Wiki matters. I also already help solve problems that other users have and as such I feel I will be able to provide more assistance in this requested postion. Just putting my name forward.

Orphan Pages and Dead ends

Do we have any policies on the following? Thanks. FTWinchester (talk) 02:47, December 11, 2013 (UTC)

Also, what are your thoughts on creating pages for certain topics that do not have much information, but are clearly separate and distinct topics that are not mentioned or included in any existing page(s)? How about topics that are briefly mentioned in one page but could be given a separate page, not because of the quantity of information on the topic, but because the page they were mentioned in is too generic/cluttered with information about other related topics? Thanks. FTWinchester (talk) 15:33, December 16, 2013 (UTC)

I was aware of what orphan pages and dead ends were, but thanks for refreshing me. I know we should avoid those, it's just that I don't think the whole community is aware of it, because we have quite a number of pages that fall in either of the two. Thanks for your opinion on the granulation/grouping. FTWinchester (talk) 17:05, December 17, 2013 (UTC)

Bureaucrat

Isn't it high time that the wiki has a new B'crat? To take care of conflicts whenever you are not around? It's not like I'm hankering after it, just letting you know so that you'll consider it. RaghavD'"Look into my eyes. It’s where my demons hide" 07:33, February 9, 2014 (UTC)

Admin

Hello Caleb, my name is josh (but you would know me and can reach me at dean.winchestor.54)As my friend Imperiexseed (the admin) said, I really would like to be promoted to Admin on the Supernatural wiki. He and I feel that I would be fit for the job, and I care way too much about Supernatural and it's wiki to not be promoted. I edit the wiki a lot, and only add factual things, not speculation. An example of an impressive edit I made was on angels. This didn't just impact the angel page though, it impacted many pages, such as demons, Seraphim, Zachariah, Castiel, and more. Previously on the wiki, it stated that the known classes of angels were Archangel>Seraph>angel>Cupid, and that lead all the fans to believe this is true. I found out that this is inaccurate information by putting small things from the show together. Archangels are known to be the first class of angel, and Castiel stated in "My bloody valentine" that Cupids were the third class of angels. That means that there is only one type of angel that is higher than Cupid, and weaker than archangel, and that must be a seraph. This proves that there is no "ordinary angel" class in between "seraph" and "Cupid". I discovered this, and I corrected all the pages I could find with the wrong information. None of the current admins knew the correct information, but I did. This took a couple hours strait, but it was worth it, knowing the wiki is correct now. That is why I deserve to be an admin, because I care so much for Supernatural, and the wikia, and I know more about Supernatural than anyone should, including the admins. Please return to your Supernatural account, and promote me to admin, so I can do even more for the wiki. Thank you so much :) Dean.winchestor.54 (talk) 05:42, June 9, 2014 (UTC) 

please reply to this as soon as you can :) Dean.winchestor.54 (talk) 07:15, June 9, 2014 (UTC)

Hello, I agree that I should have only sent the message to one of the bureaucrats, but the wiki staff member "love robin" said that you haven't even active in long time and I should ask the rest of the team. Also she said that since you haven't been active in a while that I should try to contact you on your other wiki that you were active on. Again sorry about that, I thought it was rather distasteful too. Since it sounds like admin shush is about quantity (not quality) how many edits should I have before requesting again, and how long should I have had this account? Dean.winchestor.54 (talk) 17:50, June 9, 2014 (UTC)

Hello! Love Robin here. First, I'm not Wikia Staff. I'm just a helpful soul active on Community Central who replied on MerryStar's Central Wall. Second, I was the one who pointed him in your direction as being still active on Wikia. Third, I cannot see all the wikis Dean contacted you on, only that if you did not respond here in a timely fashion that trying on you Central Wall was allowable. And fourth, that it would have been more suitable for ImperiexSeed as a local admin to do the contacting on Dean's behalf.
Mainly I'm here to correct the misconception of my role on Wikia in General. Beyond that I have no further thoughts or comments on the matter. (well, other than Message Walls should be considered for activation here) --Love Robin (talk) 05:42, June 11, 2014 (UTC)

Admin qualifications.

Hi Caleb. I would really like to become an admin, and know that you don't see me fit, so I wanted to know what steps I could take to raise my qualification for adminship. I am passionate about Supernatural and the wiki, and I would really appreciate it if you told me what I have to do to get your "blessing" and become an admin. Please message me back when you can. Bye :) Dean.winchestor.54 (talk) 20:28, July 2, 2014 (UTC)

If you are active, please respond when you can. Dean.winchestor.54 (talk) 00:45, July 5, 2014 (UTC)

Bureaucratic rights for me

Hey, Calebchiam, I would like to re-request and ask you for bureaucrat rights again seeing as you adjured me last time, and rightly so, I was extremely acerbic towards you and had an egregious attitude, and, for that, I'm sorry. I've had the stationary position of admin here on the Supernatural wiki for a while now, and I will not cogently try an convince your hand, but I believe I better understand the standards and qualifications for bureaucratic rights now. And, as I understand it, a bureaucratic position enables the user to make management corrections all over wikia. I will not inimically insult or attack you again if you still deny me, but I would at least like to know what I can do to improve to, at some point in time, attain the rights. Thanks. -- ImperiexSeed, 7:00 PM, August 5th 2014

Sorry about the late response to both of you, this year has just been extra-busy for me as I move on to the next phase of my life, but that's not really important here. Firstly, while I admire both of you in your dedication to the Wiki, frankly, I just don't feel comfortable with giving you (Imperiex) the ability to sysop other users. You have a history of bad judgement and you're not all that mature, sorry. I'm simply not confident that you'll have the sense to use it wisely, though I do not doubt your sincerity. I would like someone else to be a bureaucrat though, ideally someone with a good understanding of Wiki process and a level head, but I haven't seen anyone with that kind of experience around here yet.

Josh, I wouldn't have given the sysop tools to you, because while your intentions are good, you are new and you don't really understand how to use the tools appropriately. MerryStar has overstepped herself in giving you the tools per Imperiex's request, but I suppose that's my fault too for not responding quickly enough. I am uncomfortable with the idea of letting you keep them, given that you've already used your blocking powers to block Imperiex at one point (d'oh?) and you are not that mature either (at least based on how I've seen you conduct yourself on the Wiki), so I'm tempted to simply remove them. I will give you the benefit of doubt for now, but know that I will not hesitate to desysop you if you misuse these tools. Cheers to both of you. Calebchiam Talk 02:50, August 24, 2014 (UTC)
