T-Bone[edit]

Makes sense, considering the fact that small children in the 90s watched it without parental consent.~bendygamer (talk) 17:16, January 3, 2024 (EST)

REPORTS[edit]

Reporting user 2601:644:8D7F:7490:4475:33AC:BF18:CC6D. Reason: vandalism-only account.: I saw it in the history on 4 pages, and an anonymous user 2601:644:8D7F:7490:4475:33AC:BF18:CC6D vandalized 4 pages total, changing the templates, letters, and adding links to unknown websites.Every edit made by this anonymous user is vandalism, which makes it a "vandalism only account." I also read a Wikipedia page and it said that anonymous users tend to vandalize more.Click here to read the Wikipedia article about vandalism only accounts. You blocked this user for 1 month, but they should probably be blocked forever because this is clearly a vandalism-only account.Acnh Player (talk) 11:36, March 23, 2024 (EDT)

"2601:644:8D7F:7490:4475:33AC:BF18:CC6D" isn't an account, it's an IP address. We usually do not block permanently IP addresses because they are often dynamic (meaning that IPs are not permanent and are shared between many people over time). Long-term and permanent blocks of IP addresses are typically only done when we see repeated vandalism coming from that IP over a long period of time.~SuperHamsterTalkContribs 01:42, March 25, 2024 (EDT)

Sockpuppet?[edit]

WouldLandon6(talk |contribs |logs) andLandon62(talk |contribs |logs) be sockpuppets?

Only one number difference in their usernamesSuperMarioWorld 20:42, April 8, 2024 (EDT)

Hmm, that is very questionable indeed. I will check their contributions.Acnh Player (talk) 20:45, April 8, 2024 (EDT)

Yes, they are sockpuppets.17:06, April 8, 2024 User account Landon62 talk contribs was created, and17:09, April 8, 2024 User account Landon6 talk contribs was created. With just a 3-minute interval between the account creations, I am 99% sure they are sockpuppets.Acnh Player (talk) 20:50, April 8, 2024 (EDT)

REPORT REPORT REPORT!Acnh Player (talk) 21:01, April 8, 2024 (EDT)

No action needs to be taken unless the user starts editing from both accounts.~ AlexBot2004 (Talk) 21:13, April 8, 2024 (EDT)

Please[edit]

Can you please stop undoing my edits? Please?Acnh Player(talk) 23:50, April 12, 2024 (EDT)

Each time I have undone an edit of yours, I have explained why in the edit summary. Most of the time it is because the information is not notable, is already stated in the article, or changed the wording of something for the worse. When you make edits, you need to more carefully consider whether the information you are adding really needs to be there. For example, when adding a hatnote to an article to distinguish it from another article, ask yourself if a reader could realistically search for that other subject and end up on this page.

If you take the time to understand why your edits are being undone and use that knowledge to improve your future edits, then they will be undone less.~ AlexBot2004 (Talk) 00:04, April 13, 2024 (EDT)

Okay, thank ya.Acnh Player(talk) 00:09, April 13, 2024 (EDT)

Character etymology[edit]

Hey, I'm not sure why you keep removing my edits on characters' pages? The reasoning of "speculation" doesn't make sense to me because every piece of etymology relating to a character's name is inherently speculation, since they've never been confirmed by Nintendo, and I personally believe the ones I've added have plenty of evidence pointing toward them being accurate (especially Tiffany... I mean... come on). I find the etymology of AC characters really interesting and am just trying to help contribute to it.Toadgamer80 (talk) 20:16, April 13, 2024 (EDT)

I understand the interest in finding out the origins of villagers' names, but as an encyclopedia, our job is to document facts. Because of this, we tend to avoid speculation, even if it is noted as such in the article. While we don't have any official policy on handling villager name origins and we do have some leeway when it comes to speculating on them, we generally tend to draw the line at references to pop culture or real-world figures.~ AlexBot2004 (Talk) 22:18, April 13, 2024 (EDT)

Um... so,[edit]

I applied for patroller. Can youplease leave a positive vote?Nookipedia:Staff/ApplyAcnh Player(talk) 21:20, April 13, 2024 (EDT)

Hello[edit]

Very silly question, but are you a bot?Acnh Player(talk) 00:55, April 16, 2024 (EDT)

Removing my awesome proposal ideas[edit]

Just wondering, why do you always remove my proposals? I don't get why, and my proposals are all very reasonable.Acnh Player(talk) 19:53, May 1, 2024 (EDT)

In each edit summary, I have explained why I have vetoed the proposal. These three proposals regarding Nookipedia's staff did not meet the criteria of being a "fully worked out idea," as stated in the proposal rules. A proposal should not only state what you want to see changed, but why you want it changed and how you would go about implementing those changes if successful. Your proposals range from being poorly justified to outright unenforceable, and I get the impression from reading them that you are making these proposals just for the sake of making proposals about the staff. Continuing to make proposals like these will result in a warning for disruptive behavior.~ AlexBot2004 (Talk) 20:12, May 1, 2024 (EDT)

Crocodile[edit]

There are times when the Japanese websites are not a reliable source for English terminology, but I wonder if maybe it could be noteworthy to keep crocodile as an alternative term for alligators. Here is the one official mention that I'm aware of:https://www.nintendo.co.jp/wii/ruuj/character/crocodile.html

This same website labels "cub"/"bear cub" as "littlebear," but almost all of the other ones are accurate.HylianAngel (talk) 03:48, May 12, 2024 (EDT)

I agree with HylianAngelAcnh Player(talk) 12:07, May 12, 2024 (EDT)

I don't think I'd consider that to be an official alternative English name, especially since it's only in the URL.~ AlexBot2004 (Talk) 12:31, May 12, 2024 (EDT)

Would there be any issue creating usernames with emojis?[edit]

Not that I would want one but I was wondering if it would make usernames harder to type on keyboard or if the emoji would just show up in text form.SuperMarioWorld 12:52, May 15, 2024 (EDT)

There's no policy or technical limitation against it, and if you look throughSpecial:ListUsers, there are some accounts with emojis in the username. Since it rarely happens, it hasn't been an issue so far, but I don't think having emojis in a name would be that much of an inconvenience since there are always other ways to get to a user's page or talk page than manually typing their name into the search bar.~ AlexBot2004 (Talk) 15:59, May 15, 2024 (EDT)

You have undone my edits[edit]

Today, you have blocked moses sin for adding wikipedia links to pages. I havereverted this edit because I thought that too many wikipedia links are not allowed. Why did moses sin get banned for doing the same thing? I'm confused.Acnh Player(talk) 19:51, May 16, 2024 (EDT)

Many of the edits made by Moses Sin were linking every word in the article that had a corresponding Wikipedia page, which is excessive and not helpful to readers. This does not mean that every Wikipedia link is unnecessary; in this case, linking to the voice actors' Wikipedia pages is helpful to readers, so that edit should not have been reverted.~ AlexBot2004 (Talk) 20:03, May 16, 2024 (EDT)

Help![edit]

hey, I'm sorry to ask, but I have copied the code for some(a lot) of userboxes, and pasted them 1 by 1 into Google and then copied it all and put it in my page, but when I click preview, it isn't displaying correctly. If I give you the code I tried doing, could you edit my page for me and get it to display?*~<Melodii>~* (talk) 21:07, May 21, 2024 (EDT)

AlexBot can help, but I can help too if you want. I am not an admin tho.Acnh Player(talk) 23:44, May 21, 2024 (EDT)

So what I'm saying is that I am willing to help, and I am a good editor. I'm just saying I am not a staff member here. But you can hand me the codes and I can help ya.Acnh Player(talk) 00:10, May 22, 2024 (EDT)

They were asking for Alexbot's help in this case, so please let Alexbot assist them on this instead of trying to step in, thank you. ~PoizonMushro0m 00:47, May 22, 2024 (EDT)

Sure! Just post the code here and I'll try and see what's wrong.~ AlexBot2004 (Talk) 01:31, May 22, 2024 (EDT)

[Code moved to userpage]　*~<Melodii>~* (talk) 13:46, May 22, 2024 (EDT)

I've added these to your userpage.~ AlexBot2004 (Talk) 14:47, May 22, 2024 (EDT)

Also, I saw that you removed my age from my user page, why? According to

1. REDIRECT [[1]], I am allowed to state my age? It says "It is generally okay to reveal one's age." (sorry I'm so annoying!)*~<Melodii>~* (talk) 13:56, May 22, 2024 (EDT)

For their safety and privacy, users under the age of 13 cannot reveal any personal information that could be used to reveal their identity, including, but not limited to, age and birthday. Also, keep in mind that links are created by placing the page title inside brackets like this:[[Bob]], which producesBob. The full URL and "#REDIRECT" are not needed. I recommend looking at theintro to Wikitext for more information.~ AlexBot2004 (Talk) 14:47, May 22, 2024 (EDT)

Restarting[edit]

I have decided that I will soon re-start myAnimal Crossing New Horizons island, and I would like your input on what best preparations I should do before. Thank you!*~<Melodii>~* (talk) 20:48, May 23, 2024 (EDT)

I can help you with that because I am Acnh Player. Also, in wikitext, the "{{}}" are for templates. For links to pages, it is "[[]]". Hope this advice helps.Acnh Player(talk) 21:49, May 23, 2024 (EDT)

Template:HHPVillagerInfo[edit]

This edit to Template:HHPVillagerInfo is causing an issue withTruffles's page.HylianAngel (talk) 02:55, December 1, 2024 (EST)

I added an exception toModule:TitleCase for that item. Thanks for letting me know!~ AlexBot2004 (Talk) 03:01, December 1, 2024 (EST)

Deleting my helpful Nookapeidia page[edit]

I was just wondering, why did you take down my first page? I mean, it was informative unlike the other pages on the topic. This was before I made my user page and at the time there were not many pages on the cooking mechanic and I was devastated that when I got home the 30 minute page was gone! Page name: How to obtain food DIYs--Happy Island Academy (talk) 02:17, December 21, 2024 (EST)

As I stated in the deletion summary, Nookipedia is not a guide; your page was worded like a guide rather than an encyclopedic article. Regardless, however, that information is already on the wiki atBe a Chef! DIY Recipes+ and the "Obtaining recipes" section of theDIY recipes page.~ AlexBot2004</span> (Talk) 02:26, December 21, 2024 (EST)

Thanks. I was looking at pages titled DIY recipes and the most I got was the list of DIY projects including recipes but mostly a png of a cooking recipie card. I saw the page on that but I believe at the time that part was not there. --Happy Island Academy (talk) 03:10, December 21, 2024 (EST)

I made my first proposal![edit]

I just finished my first proposal on Nookapeidia! When do you think it will get noticed by other users?--Happy Island Academy (talk) 03:42, December 21, 2024 (EST)

Request for Removal of Widespread Vandalism / Copyright Violation[edit]

Dear AlexBot2004,I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to bring to your attention an issue on the Animal Crossing ShoutWiki site (animalcrossing.shoutwiki.com). It appears that there is widespread vandalism, potential copyright violations, and numerous instances of spam and gibberish across the site that need urgent attention.Specifically, many pages have been affected by inappropriate edits, irrelevant content, and materials that may violate copyright laws. The following IP addresses have been responsible for the vandalism: 174.212.165.161, 174.239.52.82, and 174.238.162.148. These actions compromise the integrity and quality of the information provided by the wiki and violate ShoutWiki's policies on content and copyright.As I understand, you currently do not have a ShoutWiki account. Given your commitment and contribution to the community, I kindly request that you create an account to help address these issues and restore the affected pages to their original state. Additionally, I recommend reaching out to the ShoutWiki staff to request the deletion of the vandalized pages.Your prompt attention to this matter would be greatly appreciated by the community.Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.Best regards,2600:1004:B154:B8A:F170:6B13:A0DF:AD6A 17:15, January 10, 2025 (EST)

Nookipedia is not associated with the ShoutWiki site you are referring to, nor do the Nookipedia staff have any power there. I'd recommend reaching out to that wiki's staff if you have any issues with the site.~ AlexBot2004 (Talk) 18:56, January 10, 2025 (EST)

April fools 2026[edit]

Idea for april fools 2026 a rotten leaf award and the worst nookipeda editor will recivese it and get a one day ban.AQ (talk) 06:07, January 31, 2026 (EST)

I'm not against a joke award, but it shouldn't involve blocking users. The staff will decide on what to do for this year's April Fools, so thanks for the suggestion!Drago(talk) 11:23, February 1, 2026 (EST)
