Uploading many files
You might want to use Special:MultipleUpload if you need to upload lots of files.--Rocky http://media.strategywiki.org/images/thumb/7/78/Rally-X_Rock.png/25px-Rally-X_Rock.png (Talk - Contributions) 02:40, 22 September 2007 (CDT)

Sims 2 image cat
Hey S2G, could you add to any new Sims 2 images you add and any existing images that don't have it? I added it to one, so if you have it marked on your watch list you'll be able to identify which one that is... Also if you need an easy list of images you uploaded just check your user contributions (its in the Toolbox on the right side of the screen). Thanks. -- 04:50, 22 September 2007 (CDT)

Is there an easy way to add to this new category without reuploading these images.Sims2Guy 19:46, 22 September 2007 (CDT)
 * Go to the image's page and press the "Edit" tab at the top; then edit it like you would a normal page. :-) -- 03:46, 23 September 2007 (CDT)

Thank you
 A little thank you... For all the work on The Sims guides. Hugs, DrBob (talk) 05:38, 24 October 2007 (CDT) You're living up to your name! I just wanted to show some appreciation for all the work you're putting into our guides for The Sims series; it's a daunting task, and you're getting through it admirably. :-) --DrBob (talk) 05:38, 24 October 2007 (CDT)

The Sims 2/Characters
I've brought this page over from wikipedia (page has been deleted since). Could you please look over it and do any splitting required? Thanks. -- Prod (Talk) 21:31, 16 December 2007 (CST)

Sims 2 expansion packs
Hi. I've gone through a number of the guides for the expansion packs to The Sims 2 and split them into subpages. Just so you know, I've marked each subpage as a stub, although I don't know if this is true for some of them. --DrBob (talk) 05:23, 22 December 2007 (CST)

Thanks for that. It will make my job a lot easier when I get to those packs.Sims2Guy 20:04, 22 December 2007 (CST)

Footer Nav removal
Every subpage of a guide is required to have a header and footer nav. -- 03:32, 11 January 2008 (CST)

No one else added a footer nav to those pages in this guide. The Sims 2 doesn't have a standard start-to-finish walkthrough like other games so the footer nav would be pointless. Also, the footer nav only links back to the main game page.Sims2Guy 18:24, 11 January 2008 (CST)
 * Read Footer Nav to see how to get it to link elsewhere. It should link chronologically according to the Table of Contents. Having the Footer Nav is a requirement on guide pages. Removing it again will result in either protecting of the page in question or a temp ban. -- 20:07, 11 January 2008 (CST)

When you're adding footer navs, you only need to use the "prevname" or "nextname" parameters if you want the link text for either link to be different from the page names (i.e. don't use those two parameters if they're just going to be the same as the "prevpage" and "nextpage" parameters). Thanks. :-) --DrBob (talk) 08:21, 12 January 2008 (CST)
 * Oh, and you typically also don't need to pass the "here" parameter, as that's also automatically detected. --DrBob (talk) 08:23, 12 January 2008 (CST)
