I miss Andrew & Peter
Man, it kind of sucks when there's only two admins around, doesn't it? I was busy tonight, which left you dealing with the kids all by yourself. I want my Andrew and Peter back. -- Danny (talk ) 03:12, 10 July 2006 (UTC)


 * Yeah, it's been quiet. The biggest thing I've done was all those Muppet Kids books. I've been busier with extra G-time, too. -- Scott (talk ) 03:14, 10 July 2006 (UTC)


 * Well, that's good, having XG. -- Danny (talk ) 03:19, 10 July 2006 (UTC)

TOC is a personal preference; it can be hidden or shown by the user
Okay, dude, I get it. -- Danny (talk ) 03:00, 8 July 2006 (UTC)


 * I wasn't trying to be a dick, it just looks that way when you see the summaries all in a row. You know you can turn off all TOCs on every page in your prefs, right? -- Scott (talk ) 03:06, 8 July 2006 (UTC)


 * Actually, that seems to be built-in now. Maybe that's another mysterious aspect of the top-secret upgrade. I turned off the TOC on one page, and it seems like it's turned off everywhere now. Which I guess just goes to show that TOC is a personal preference; it can be hidden or shown by the user. -- Danny (talk ) 03:13, 8 July 2006 (UTC)


 * Okay thanks dan talk to you later lol. -- Scott (talk ) 03:15, 8 July 2006 (UTC)


 * On Wheels? -- Danny (talk ) 03:25, 8 July 2006 (UTC)


 * Speaking of which, I've recently noticed that there are a frightening amount of legitimate articles that end in "on wheels." Like, at least two. And one of them is featured Today on Muppet Wiki! -- <font color="Blue">Scott (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 03:27, 8 July 2006 (UTC)


 * Maybe Muppet Kid Piggy is a wiki vandal. -- <font color="Blue">Danny (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 03:45, 8 July 2006 (UTC)

Main Page
Hey babe: Does the Main Page look weird to you all of a sudden? Something made the spacing around the "Muppet Wiki" description go all kablooie. Do you know what happened? -- <font color="Blue">Danny (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 23:57, 7 July 2006 (UTC)


 * Right this moment, no. But you may have been seeing the side effects of some trouble they've been having today with a software upgrade. -- <font color="Blue">Scott (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 00:05, 8 July 2006 (UTC)

Sesame Street Discography
Hey babe: I did some more work on the Discography this morning... It turns out that we (and everybody else on the internet) were mixed up about the Golden Music cassettes. Golden put out a bunch of cassette reissues in the early 90s, and they put the original copyright dates on the cassettes -- so there's a bunch of 1990-1991 cassettes with 1981-1987 copyrights on them. All the Sesame Discographies floating around mix those up, so they say that Golden produced "The Best of Cookie Monster", etc.

Anyway, I figured that out and fixed all that. The one thing I don't have is dates or pictures for most of the Golden "Best of" reissues. I have "The Best of Ernie", and that's it. So now you know. -- <font color="Blue">Danny (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 12:55, 6 July 2006 (UTC)


 * That jives. -- <font color="Blue">Scott (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 15:03, 6 July 2006 (UTC)

Bob as Prairie Dawn
Gah, you beat me to it! Can you delete the Bobasprariedawn.JPG picture I uploaded? Thanks! -- <font color="Blue">Joe (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 13:30, 3 July 2006 (UTC)

Subheadings
User:Grj posted a question on my page about adding the "From Muppet Wiki" subheading on our pages. I moved the question back to his page, and said that you'd be able to help him out. Could you check it out? -- <font color="Blue">Danny (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 13:06, 3 July 2006 (UTC)

Through the Years
Hey babe: When I revamped the Through the Years pages this morning, I took out all the references to performers. I forget exactly where the discussion on this was, but the general sense that I got was that people felt the Through the Years pages should be about the puppet design, and not the performers. I think the thing that led to problems with the Evolution pages was that it wasn't clear what information was supposed to be there and what wasn't, so it was kind of a free-for-all. I've tried to streamline the pages, so it's more clear what kind of info we're looking for. You dig? -- <font color="Blue">Danny (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 04:47, 3 July 2006 (UTC)


 * Okay. That doesn't make sense to me, but if that's the way you want it, you need to specify on all those pages. -- <font color="Blue">Scott (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 04:48, 3 July 2006 (UTC)


 * Well, all the information that's on the pages now is about the puppet design. I'm hoping that people use the existing page as a guideline for what should be there. We'll see how that works out. Sometimes it works. -- <font color="Blue">Danny (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 04:50, 3 July 2006 (UTC)


 * It needs to be clarified. I had no idea when I came along and added performer info. -- <font color="Blue">Scott (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 04:52, 3 July 2006 (UTC)


 * By the way, the discussion that got me thinking along that line is here... Andrew and Peter were saying that performer info shouldn't be included. -- <font color="Blue">Danny (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 04:53, 3 July 2006 (UTC)


 * That's fine, but "Through the Years" still means "Through the Years" and not "Through the Years But Just the Puppets," you know what I mean? Unless you want to direct everyone to that discussion. -- <font color="Blue">Scott (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 04:55, 3 July 2006 (UTC)


 * Lemme think about it. I'll figure something out. -- <font color="Blue">Danny (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 04:56, 3 July 2006 (UTC)

Muppet Songs
Hey babe: Did you see the conversation I started at Category_talk:Muppet_Songs a couple days ago? I'm trying to make some sense out of that discussion. What do you think? -- <font color="Blue">Danny (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 17:26, 30 June 2006 (UTC)

Achtung!
If you ever get around to watching your video file of Die Muppet Show again, you'll now have a relatively complete German voice cast list to accompany your viewing, in case the question of who dubbed Kermit der Froesch becomes too much to bear. I'm debating whether to take a Los Dinosaurios approach to the page, but I'm not sure it works as well with Muppets, plus the fact that one guy played six roles, so right now I'm just using it to house the actors' photos ala Sesamo Apriti until they get their own pages. In which case, I may ask you for another screengrab at some point, if the page grows any larger. <font color="Blue">Andrew Leal (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 04:10, 29 June 2006 (UTC)


 * Hey, nice job! One of these days, I'll get around to digging up the John Cleese episode I have dubbed in gaelic :) -- <font color="Blue">Scott (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 04:22, 29 June 2006 (UTC)

Aliens and Robots
Heya Scott, Andrew and I are having a conversation on my talk page about the aliens and robots category pages. Care to add your $0.02? -- <font color="Blue">Joe (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 17:33, 27 June 2006 (UTC)
