The '''Administrators' noticeboard''' is intended to be a page to quickly alert the [[SmashWiki:Administrators|administrators]] to issues that need their attention.


==Vandal/Spam account reports==
To make a request or statement, create a new section and provide a neutral, precise summary of events with thought-out reasoning, and, if possible, links to any pages with relevant discussions. It is also a good idea to notify any users involved with the request with a link to the section on this page. Make sure to add new sections to the bottom.
{{IP|Dr.Mario}} Constantly edit-warring on [[Dr. Mario (SSB4)]], and resorting to vandalism/inserting blatantly false information when his edits are reverted with good reasons. --[[User:Timson622222|Timson622222]] ([[User talk:Timson622222|talk]]) 18:27, 27 July 2015 (EDT)
:In addition, he also violates the [[SW:NPA]]. [[User:Luigi540|Luigi540]] ([[User talk:Luigi540|talk]]) 19:13, 27 July 2015 (EDT)
::We may also want to semiprotect Dr. Mario (SSB4) for good measure. At the very least, block him and prevent him from editing his talk page, which is prone to... "discussion". [[User: Nyargleblargle|<span style="color: lime">'''Nyargle'''</span><span style="color: orange">'''blargle'''</span>]] ([[User talk:Nyargleblargle|Talk]]) 19:51, 27 July 2015 (EDT)


{{IP|Vidracova}} Vandalizing the directional influence page with racist remarks. [[User:Bulbaboy|Bulbaboy]] ([[User talk:Bulbaboy|talk]]) 21:04, 7 July 2015 (EDT)
Report vandals and [[SW:SOCK|sockpuppets]] at the '''top''' of the appropriate section labeled for such reports at the using <nowiki>{{IP|Username}}</nowiki>, where Username is the name of the user or the IP vandal's IP address.


{{IP|MarioSucksAnyway}} Vandalizing Mario's page. [[User:Luigi540|Luigi540]] ([[User talk:Luigi540|talk]]) 02:57, 6 July 2015 (EDT)
For reporting similar and unacceptable usernames, report them [[SmashWiki talk:Username policy#Reporting similar and unacceptable usernames|here]] instead of on this page. This is done to keep the reports in one place, and because unacceptable usernames can be more subjective (unlike vandal/spam accounts), which may necessitate discussion (which the linked page will be more suited to handle).
:Oh, the irony...a Luigi account reporting a Mario account.

Also invalidated links on that wiki page to lead to non-existing pages.

{{IP|Nakamaru}} is impersonating the actual {{sm|Nakamaru}}. I was in a restaurant chatting with the actual IRL Nakamaru after a tournament today, at which point he mentions that someone made a weird SmashWiki article for him. I check the history to see who did it, and it's a user with the name "Nakamaru." He is very sure it's not his account. It's someone pretending to be him.

== VERY problematic ads - site is basically unusable for guests ==
I a bringing this up because this issue makes me outraged as an internet user.
This is in regards to the "Large" ads that show up at the bottom of every medium to large page on this site. If a page (ANY page) isn't extremely short, then the ad space at the bottom will load in two large "square" shaped ads, and these ads are always ridiculously heavy on memory usage. "Video Ads". I am not talking about ads that have animation, or those banner ads that have a video in them where you can "click to replay with sound". No, these are literally just video players and they load in a VERY high-quality, full-length video that eats up all of the browser's memory and causes the page to lag so badly that it's as if the user were using dial-up!
I will provide you a more specific example, but please keep in mind that this is just one example and this problem extends across all large pages. On a large page such as http://www.ssbwiki.com/Music_%28SSBB%29 it is nearly impossible to navigate the page because, directly below the infoboxes at the very bottom, there is a "table" element with two "iframe" elements inside of it. The id of one of these iframes is "sovrn_ad_unit_267940_async". This element is almost always a high-quality video that deals with either fashion or health on some unidentifiable flash video player. The videos feature logos that say "FashionTheater" and "HealthTheater", respectively. Clicking on these ads does nothing except pause the video; they do NOT take you to any advertisers webpage. I can tell that this ad is causing the immense lag because as soon as I delete the table element from the page, the lag disappears ENTIRELY.
On this particular page load, BOTH of the ads at the bottom resulted in this problematic ad. That's TWO INCREDIBLY HIGH-QUALITY VIDEOS PLAYING AT ONCE. Scrolling the page was nearly impossible. It took me TEN MINUTES to get this information because that's how slow the page was. This will happen on ANY page unless it is very short in length.
I see now that this still occurs if I have made an account, unlike some other wikis. This is a huge HUGE punishment for users of this site. What if someone is playing a Smash Bros. game and they want to look up some information really quickly here? They're going to be hit with this HUGE drop in performance, and then they will probably never come back to this site ever again. This is a huge problem for the hundreds users who stop by your site.
I was told previously that "video ads are a thing that cannot be avoided". This is absolutely, 100% untrue. This and other MediaWiki sites are the ONLY website I have EVER seen that has these kinds of high-quality video ads. I peruse the internet quite a bit, and there are some ridiculous and annoying ads on some of the biggest sites out there, but not a single one employs auto-play High-quality flash video play objects like this. I have contacted plenty of other websites to let them know that a bad ad was hampering my experience, and they have all promptly fixed the issue.
If you need further proof of how bad my browsing experiences are, I would be willing to film a video of the problems and provide this for you, but I don't think it needs to come to that.
Remember, I am absolutely not asking you to stop displaying ads. I support the use of ads, which is why I do not ever use adblocker. But these need to go. These aren't even ads because users cannot click on them to be taken anywhere; they are literally just tiny, high-quality flash video players. I highly encourage you to find out where they are coming from and remove them or replace them with something else.

:Admins do not have control of the ads; the only guy who does doesn't read this page. You might get a more prompt/useful response on [[User talk:Porplemontage|his talkpage]].

== Userpage plagiarism ==
{{IP|Blaker36}} has a userpage that is way too similar to mine prior to revamping my userpage. [[User:Berrenta|Berrenta]] ([[User talk:Berrenta|talk]]) 10:39, 8 July 2015 (EDT)
:Though I did leave a note for this user, in case said user does not act: the intro, userboxes, and the infobox were way too similar to mine. Thankfully nothing else was copied. [[User:Berrenta|Berrenta]] ([[User talk:Berrenta|talk]]) 11:03, 8 July 2015 (EDT)
::You can literally make your userpage anyway you liked it, even if it's similar to someone's userpage. It's not exactly something you can get banned for, I think. Who knows, maybe he thinks your userpage looks cool and wanted to make his similar to yours. If you don't like it, just change your userpage so it's unique to yourself [[User:KirbytheAmazing|<span style="color:pink">Kirbythe]] </span> [[File:Meta+Kirby.jpg|23px]] [[User talk:KirbytheAmazing|<span style="color:blue">'''Amazing'''</span>]] [[Special:Contributions/KirbytheAmazing|'''Know my power!''']] 11:06, 8 July 2015 (EDT)
:::You don't understand. I never gave the user consent to copy my userpage. If it was altered in a way that it's unique, I'd let it slide, but the userboxes are practically identical. [[User:Berrenta|Berrenta]] ([[User talk:Berrenta|talk]]) 11:12, 8 July 2015 (EDT)
::::You can try to talk it out with him, ask if there's any reason to it. He haven't even heard his response but you already reported it to the admin noticeboard? See how it goes, clear any misunderstandings, THEN report back here, so it doesn't escalate more than it should be.

:::::Gave him an alternative by letting him change the contents in the boxes and intro. Hopefully he'll take note of it. At least the userbox that I used to reference my rollback powers had different text. Otherwise, there will definitely be problems. :p [[User:Berrenta|Berrenta]] ([[User talk:Berrenta|talk]]) 11:27, 8 July 2015 (EDT)
:::::I'm sorry, but it appears that Blaker36 hasn't been active since 2014, and the last and only time he made his userpage is at 13 September 2014, and your userpage in that date has several minor differences from your current userpage, so I don't think we have any problem here. You can check it by clicking the history tab on his userpage [[User:KirbytheAmazing|<span style="color:pink">Kirbythe]] </span> [[File:Meta+Kirby.jpg|23px]] [[User talk:KirbytheAmazing|<span style="color:blue">'''Amazing'''</span>]] [[Special:Contributions/KirbytheAmazing|'''Know my power!''']] 11:33, 8 July 2015 (EDT)
:::::To be quite honest guys, how many other users besides me copied from Toomai's userboxes? [[User:Dots|<font color="red">'''D'''</font><font color="green">'''o'''</font><font color="blue">'''t'''</font><font color="purple">'''s'''</font>]] ([[User talk:Dots|talk]]) [[File:Mega Man X SNES sprite.png|19px]] The GameCube 11:35, 8 July 2015 (EDT)
::::::Emailed Toomai for his input, since there was a chance Blaker nay be inactive. And Dots: I did do that for the character infoboxes (being honest), but at least I changed the text in them when I implemented them. That user didn't when he copied my page; well, except for that userbox that I had that denoted rollback. For now, hopefully this gets sorted out.

You are free to remove any blatantly false information yourself, like places where he uses your name, but other than that I'm not sure why you'd care that much.

:Guess I'll go ahead and do so; however, I'll just hide the blatantly matching parts instead of deleting it outright, just in case he decides to return. Thanks for chiming in.
:Forgot to notice that the infobox was changed to reflect him prior to this, so it's all good there. The userboxes and intro mirror what mine looked like back when his page was created, which raised flags. [[User:Berrenta|Berrenta]] ([[User talk:Berrenta|talk]]) 19:34, 9 July 2015 (EDT)
