[20:06:51] Hello Stew73! If you have any questions, feel free to ask and someone should answer soon. [20:08:41] Hello, I'm Stew and I made a wiki around two weeks ago. I struggled a little but I think I'm starting to get the hang of how things works thanks to the community board. [20:09:41] I'm here to ask something about Miraheze's content policy, not so much about the technical aspect of wiki and everything so I dunno if this is the right place to ask [20:11:43] So, the first thing in the content policy states that the primary purpose of my wiki cannot be commercial activity. As I looked at the details, I'm still not sure whether this plan I'm thinking of doing in the (far) future is even allowed or not. [20:12:03] "However, you can have limited fundraiser-type sales or provide an informational site supporting a commercial activity (for instance, a wiki describing characters from a commercial work of fiction)." [20:12:11] Hi [20:12:17] Hey Rhinos [20:12:39] What's your plan? [20:13:11] That line is what got me into thinking whether it meant that I just can't use the wiki to gain money directly or trying to profit from it in any way is just prohibited [20:14:23] Could you explain how you intend to raise money and what for? [20:15:03] I don't want to get convoluted trying to explain the plan, so I'll skip the details. Basically I'm thinking of, probably making another website meant for commercial purpose, and then the wiki is used to refer the information to [20:15:31] I'm trying to form a community surrounding writing stories and making art content like comic, animations etc surrounding the stories we made [20:15:57] Basically the wiki I'm doing right now is somewhat similar to anime wiki [20:16:26] Like your typical Fandom anime wiki, but we use it to make our own stories etc [20:17:03] As the community grow bigger (hopefully in the future), there might be a way to monetize all these hard work put into the content we're making [20:17:53] By monetise do you mean make enough money to cover supplies needed etc or earning a profit that isn't reinvested in the community/work [20:18:01] We might put the stories, comic, animations over to another website that allows for commercial revenue, like adverts etc [20:18:16] But if the wiki is just information on it and community made then it should be okay [20:18:29] CP678: you around? [20:18:50] * CP678 eats RhinosF1 [20:19:05] Oh, so it doesn't matter that I make a commercial website out of Miraheze and have wiki information be stored in the wiki? [20:19:33] The profit I intend to be given back to the community I'm forming, as it's still their content that they're making [20:20:04] Again, this is a pretty far future plan, but I was just wondering if it even complies to the policy [20:20:11] RhinosF1 So why'd you ping me? [20:20:27] Hello Cyber [20:20:28] Cyberpower678: can you pop into -sre [20:20:56] Full channel name? [20:21:06] The full channel name? [20:21:10] As in the link? [20:21:27] Stew73: if it's going back to the community and supporting the community to ensure they can do their work, not to earn money for their own personal use, it should be fine. You cant host commercial content on miraheze but info on commercial product is allowed [20:21:42] Aslo me + Cyberpower678 is a seperate conversation [20:21:50] Cyberpower678: #miraheze-sre [20:23:52] Info on commercial product... [20:23:52] So it's like if I make a monetizable comic site which is related to the Miraheze wiki, it's an okay? [20:24:13] That's really the baseline there, should've asked like that sooner [20:24:19] Sorry for taking your time btw [20:25:53] It should be okay [20:25:56] It's fine [20:26:10] Alright [20:26:14] Thank you Rhinos [20:26:28] You're pretty nice [20:26:56] Anyway, I'll be off to do more work on it now [20:27:01] Byee [20:36:57] See you later [21:03:06] just for me remember later: when requesting a deleteBatch, I need a .txt with all the pages I want to delete, right? [21:03:54] I think it would help Lake [21:04:28] it's because in the past when i requested the batch, all the pages I wanted to delete where in a specific category, so it was easier to identify [21:11:13] If it's not a specific category and namespace then ye [21:11:20] You need a list [21:11:31] Turning it into a txt isn't hard [21:13:33] I already have a txt here actually, I just need to remove some characters [21:34:30] Ah k [23:59:40] hmm, is it possible to use ifeq (or other parser function) to match a predefined value?
