[00:20:23] [1/2] i find being forced to add a reason on why i changed a setting/disabling-enabling extensions/skins stupid but okay [00:20:23] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1464052107341598720/image.png?ex=69741047&is=6972bec7&hm=94606f6c1514bb081c0a4ee26d914ee6e900ae495e643a54b95a123384f4d2ce& [00:22:03] enter ` ` [00:22:11] then it won't show up with anything [00:23:18] I just put a . Or something random [00:24:33] i just put "yay" as my reason LOL [00:24:44] i asked this a few months ago but i don't remember exactly what i was told, will the new authentication system enable some kind of a guest user so logged out users can edit without worrying about their ip adress being leaked publicly? [00:25:37] Temporary users are not coming with this change. [00:26:09] Currently unclear when they will be coming as many extensions do not yet support them. [00:27:37] ah damn [00:59:54] Is this going to affect OAuth verification via wiki-bot? We rely on that for the AVID Discord [01:00:31] Shouldn't affect it at all. [01:00:44] Is the auth migration going to affect OAuth verification via wiki-bot? We rely on that for the AVID served [01:01:19] Great. Just wanted to confirm. [01:04:14] That will eventually not be required [01:04:37] :EpicFaceMH: [01:05:20] That is another thing in my todo probably March or April will start looking into that more extensively. [01:06:18] Doing upstream patches and what not where needed also. [01:06:51] [1/2] is this ever going to be removed [01:06:51] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1464063797647118388/image.png?ex=69741b2a&is=6972c9aa&hm=62766448825e022e69f36296191b7d70e64b833820fee5d9829b14572514965e& [01:07:29] Perhaps. Probably will do an extension purge for those broken for many releases with 1.45. [01:07:59] incompatibility purgatory is coming to an end [01:08:15] i fw timeless but i don't fw with its sidebar making the page longer [01:08:45] [1/2] it looks ugly [01:08:45] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1464064279052423178/image.png?ex=69741b9d&is=6972ca1d&hm=042d77c75233c2fbd26c628794303d9aee4481a7a2becc642f0eeaa9a0287c18& [01:12:08] It is compatible, but awaiting a new security review [01:12:18] Oh right. [01:12:48] Probably should update the message then lol. [01:13:14] and the right sidebar could have been in the page itself but whatever [01:14:52] is there any js scrip that does that or not [01:31:33] is there a reason on why UserProfileV2 extension pfps aren't global [01:35:27] thankfully it isnt [01:35:35] i love setting up different pfps each wiki i visit [01:59:40] yay! I used this and it worked with my two test pages 😄 you're the best 😁 👍 [02:18:16] Tbh not gonna get into it too much, but do we really need temp users, to me it sounds like just another way to do abuse on wiki, and another barrier to easily tracking problems [02:58:35] Is there a way to get to make your own format for the TimezoneConverter extension? [03:02:15] [1/3] how do i get the edit button to appear next to the header ? also the collapse down too [03:02:15] [2/3] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1464092840765423808/IMG_6280.png?ex=69743636&is=6972e4b6&hm=d4bf7f5d7cad54cbb926e577222b487e7628b99e7ce2eb81a545cb336d8091ae& [03:02:15] [3/3] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1464092841042251970/IMG_6281.png?ex=69743636&is=6972e4b6&hm=dc5ecd163494a801a422c79e93d95449226c7202898d0359fe9f8630700fab51& [04:33:38] awesome [05:33:46] [1/2] what element is the little gradient lines around the tabs? are they able to be stylized? [05:33:46] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1464130970704674899/b8d661bc25794615533141d29dcbc808.png?ex=697459b9&is=69730839&hm=973944ac234535a620f14699ce892f6357ccf1f206ba3373762bf23379f0e65b& [09:19:46] [1/2] Am I missing something here?

[09:22:31] This wiki has been here for a year [09:24:14] Hmm...What does it do if you use Main_Page with underscores? If the answer is the same, I will look more tomorrow if no one else does first. [09:25:58] I am going for the night now. [09:27:33] Doesn't let me edit it [09:27:42] Can look more tomorrow. [09:27:51] Unless someone beats me. [09:28:15] 👍 [10:06:42] Are there perks to the donor role or is it just for thanks/acknowledgement? Just curious lol [10:55:31] there's also the yellow colour [10:56:24] inspect element is usually how you find these things out [10:58:14] [1/2] trying that for this specifically didn't really provide much [10:58:14] [2/2] i'll try to use inspect element again, though [11:00:43] [1/2] okay significantly more progress this time [11:00:43] [2/2] thank you very much [11:04:20] Anyone else have slow loading time? [11:04:45] sorry I was a bit abrupt there, if you have an issue that you don't know how to solve you can still ask here. Although please give a link to any pages that you are looking at otherwise it's impossible to tell [11:05:08] not particularly [11:05:12] oh no it's fine, i genuinely just overlooked the exact element that had what i needed lmao [11:15:13] (.vector-menu-tabs & .vector-menu-tabs a) [11:15:17] does mediawiki use scss perchance [11:42:31] it can, at least via resourceloader [11:42:36] dunno about on-wiki [11:43:59] oh wait, i think it's less actually [13:27:26] [1/7] so, first i got banned from making an account bc of web host or open proxy (by isai) [13:27:26] [2/7] though, being the silly idiot i am, i reloaded the page and then got doublke banned (by void) [13:27:27] [3/7] i only sent an account creation request form for isai [13:27:27] [4/7] you see, i cant log into the account that was created by isai because i was still apparently banned by void [13:27:27] [5/7] so should i send a form for void which is the same as isai or something else? [13:27:27] [6/7] -# can send proof if needed [13:27:28] [7/7] -# and, im an idiot so if im missing something im very sorry [13:35:34] are you using vpn/proxy or the reason states banned for vandalism? [13:36:04] i am using a vpn [13:36:54] wellp, logging in w/ vpn doesn't too, i have this problem when visiting other wikis, which is frankly silly [13:37:42] you can't reach mira w/o vpn? [13:39:41] nope [14:43:37] [1/3] Hi, I’m looking for a template that makes the thing like: [14:43:37] [2/3] > `Redirect page` redirects here. For `other use` see `other page`. [14:43:37] [3/3] I can’t seem to find a template for that on Dev. Does anyone have one we could import or would we have to make it ourselves (which we can do; importing is just easier)? [14:46:21] it's a simple type of template [14:47:02] [1/2] [14:47:02] [2/2] just change text/parameters [14:48:24] [1/2] The Spanish version of this template on Wikipedia is simpler; you can use it and adapt it to your wiki. https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plantilla:Redirige_aqu%C3%AD [14:48:24] [2/2] But you can also search the history of the page you are looking for. Usually, editions from 10-15 years ago have a simpler version. ej. https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Template:Redirect&action=edit&oldid=388744590 [14:52:14] [1/4] oof any tech online? [14:52:14] [2/4] got unusual exception [14:52:15] [3/4] 8a753f717a824ea89d9b065f [14:52:15] [4/4] "MediaWiki\Revision\RevisionAccessException" [15:06:10] created @warpedforest https://dev.miraheze.org/wiki/Template:Redirect [15:34:06] Thank you! [15:48:40] Sorry, i have a question: I am using MassEditRegex to edit a number of mistakes in a category. How long usually takes to make the mass edit? The page is currently in "Processing... (? left) " [16:20:55] hi guys! where do i report if there are duplicate wikis of the same topic [16:25:05] send link [16:25:38] [1/2] steward requests/wiki reports [16:25:38] [2/2] check if it was already reported before posting [16:37:54] [1/2] My email signature at work: [16:37:55] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1464298104521232568/image.png?ex=6974f561&is=6973a3e1&hm=4ed29613df96162d6d1b6acf01102ef80595489603b66c94abcd48a043bb747b& [17:29:46] I'm also an emdash enjoyer, and gpt has been an obnoxious nuisance in my emdash enjoyment [17:35:06] What's the general sentiment of pages being in both a category and the respective parent category? Is there a common practice in one way or the other, or is it really just to taste? [17:36:56] Say that category `Mega Man X games` is in the category `Mega Man games`. Should the article `Mega Man X2` being in `Mega Man games`? I'm inclined to say yes, but idk if that might create unexpected category behavior for most wiki users or not [17:38:02] here's the [actual example](), this is a question for how I'm structuring my wiki right now. [17:48:33] It's no problem. I don't remember it affecting anything, but it might be a bit trivial for some people. I have categorized my wiki in a way that is simple for me, but it can overlap at times. For example. [17:48:53] https://ucronias.miraheze.org/wiki/Categor%C3%ADa:Art%C3%ADculos [17:53:33] I seem to have another wikis most viewed pages analytics bleeding into my wiki's, would that be something to open a Phorge task over? Or somewhere else? [18:16:09] I've updated it to another version, added documentation [18:41:04] It's probably fine as long as your categories aren't categorised in a similar way - that way you'll end up in a category loop. [18:53:57] [1/2] Is there an easy way to isolate sandbox pages from appearing in categories? [18:53:58] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1464332346294538500/image.png?ex=69751545&is=6973c3c5&hm=4c1fb53c3416a96b33aba8986a04ce6f7aec8c56cd48ba4d6413977f060c6f2e& [18:54:13] Someone's got half a game page in there and it probably shouldn't be there lol [19:04:49] Are the categories placed manually or via transcriptions [19:39:42] Most infoboxed and stuff will have a parameter to switch off categories [19:39:57] If it was placed manually we'll don't place it [19:56:20] Alternately just use to wrap categories [19:56:25] That’s what I use [19:57:01] Why does the template:sidebar not appear on mobile view [19:57:40] It's a table, and tables aren't rendered well in mobile view. Thus they are hidden by default [20:00:56] Is there a way to have the sidebar functionality on mobile? [20:02:38] I think it depends on the skin, but there should be a ≣ to get access to the sidebar [20:03:33] it loads separate [20:04:02] I'm not very familiar with mobile view (Only use desktop) [20:05:10] In mobile view only a limited nr of links are loaded. [20:31:00] Who in their right mind uses a em--dash unless writing for paper literature? [20:31:39] Some peopl [20:32:04] -# Pressed enter too soon. [20:34:10] Me. Next question. [20:43:59] Yeah I was a big fan of the em-dash before the AI revolution [20:53:09] Whats that? [21:07:48] Okay, this infobox does not have such a parameter. How do I make one? [21:08:50] Link to one of the pages with the issue in #support and someone will look [21:13:09] Opened one. Thanks. https://discord.com/channels/407504499280707585/1464367112381530113 [21:46:01] <.terrorblades, replying to theoneandonlylegroom> [1/2] Sorry for the late responce I'v been weighing my options. Its not a big wiki but I don't want to make any rash decision. [21:46:01] <.terrorblades, replying to theoneandonlylegroom> [2/2] Is there any costs for having a wiki on Miraheze? [21:46:24] No costs, though you are free to donate to the service [21:48:01] miraheze is explicitly non-commercial [21:48:31] run by volunteers, all donations go to servers and other tech stuff [21:48:36] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Content_Policy - there are some content policies, that are worth a read into, but otherwise they are pretty relaxed. [21:59:49] [[FAQ]] has a lot of the remaining "who we are and how we operate" information you might want. [21:59:50]

[22:22:53] Hi. Why this commons link fail is not fixed yet? How long should it take? [22:38:29] <.terrorblades> [1/2] This sounds very nice! I think I'm decided! [22:38:29] <.terrorblades> [2/2] Is there somewhere that I can see how people can claim there accounts once the migration is done? Most of editors and I have little to no contact outside of Fandom. [22:39:26] Will this migration solves this commons links failure that is not fixed yet after two weeks? [22:49:34] the migration is an account login one, not one for images, so no [22:52:04] But don’t you think it is taking too long to fix this QuickCommons error? It’s almost two weeks. I’d like to continue editing my articles. [22:52:51] they said a fix was coming soon, not sure when [22:53:27] usually making edits fixes the issue for me [23:00:54] We deployed a potential fix today but it will take a little while to see the effect [23:01:20] I suggest trying to purge pages in about 36 hours or so that are still affected [23:02:06] If we are still seeing issues next week, we will investigate further [23:02:42] <_arawynn, replying to .terrorblades> User accounts aren't moved when you import a Wiki according to https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Moving_a_wiki_to_Miraheze so your editors would have to create new accounts on Miraheze. [23:06:20] <.terrorblades, replying to _arawynn> Ok good thank you! [23:07:17] Not sure if it applies to your situation but I after our Fandom wiki import, I created an account with the same name on Miraheze Meta and was able to get my accounts synced so that my edit history wasn't lost. I had to submit a Phorge ticket to do it but it was handled swiftly and easily [23:08:37] Oh thank god! Finally! I’ll wait until next week. If not I’ll try Fandom or any other wiki host because I have to continue my wiki. Thanks for your assistance though. [23:37:03] Yanking this down
