[00:16:36] Does anyone who has submitted a wiki on indie wiki buddy know how long it can take to get approved? [00:22:29] Months [00:23:05] I assume the devs are busy and that's why it takes so long [01:02:45] If wiki request requires human review, it generally will get reviewed within I would say atleast a week, give or take a few days, but the AI (typically) will review the request initially instantly and give an outcome [01:11:14] wdym [01:16:40] indie wiki buddy, not miraheze [01:30:32] hi friends, is there any way for a wiki to display a content age rating any more conveniently than the front page or a rules? im thinking in the footer if possible [01:32:08] you can you use MediaWiki:Sitenotice to do that [01:32:37] well, id prefer not to do that, because i use sitenotice for updates that change every few months 😅 [01:32:49] we regularly have to put up sitenotices for content/updates relating to the game, makeship campaigns, etc [01:43:29] footer is possible, our wiki puts silly lil quotes down there [01:44:06] https://github.com/miraheze/mw-config/blob/main/LocalWiki.php#L747 [01:47:54] how do i use this? [04:09:58] Creating a dark mode theme for timeless can't be that hard... right? [07:05:30] took about two weeks for my wikis [07:06:39] dev makes big/not frequent updates for extensions, iirc firefox gets later than chrome too [07:35:11] Hamstro is taking a while to update it though :/ [07:35:12] https://getindie.wiki/changelog/ [07:35:31] last update was in late september/early october of last year [07:56:07] damn [08:22:46] Bummer! I don't think fanon wikis count for IndieWiki Buddy, but if it does, that'd be neat. [08:52:06] wouldn't be really useful to have imo [08:53:00] as ppl use iwb to redirect wikis on real stuff [08:53:56] It truly wouldn't be useful, since yes, it's basically a fictional show made just by myself that's based off a real show. [08:54:30] yeah [08:57:24] I figured, but I'm happy that more wikis are leaving Fandom for a better host. Heck, even the Bejeweled Wiki left a while back. [09:02:50] same [09:03:24] Yeah. [11:21:07] it takes a while [11:21:14] prolly around a week or two [11:48:49] i see [11:49:02] mine has been pending review for 2 months which is why i asked [11:52:05] prabhas probably got lucky, cause it does take significantly longer [13:13:42] <9021007> [1/3] Hi everyone.

[13:15:14] <9021007, replying to spiracy_notcanon> oh nvm they said the same thing in #announcements, i guess it is real [13:15:41] I'm pretty sure miraheze.org is the official domain, I'm not 100% sure tho. [13:15:53] hey would someone mind running rebuildtitlekeys on my wiki [13:16:13] pilgrammed.miraheze.org [13:17:38] Yeah, any email ending with miraheze.org (and that only) is official.

[17:57:17] <_arawynn> Is it a private Wiki? If so check if you're logged in or you can't access anything but the Main Page [17:57:39] its a public and yes i am logged in [17:58:07] google is frankly an asshole, it's hard to please [17:58:34] wdym by access, are you getting an error? [17:58:40] <_arawynn> hmmm okay what's the url? [17:58:41] Yeah, I’ve noticed, and I doubt I’ll be able to beat the Fandom wiki lol [17:58:47] like how do i edit it [17:58:59] It is inactive however, I’d assume Google likes up to date info [17:59:43] you are not seeing Administration sidebar? [18:02:31] like i try to go to it https://rsgwiki.miraheze.org but it says this page does not exist [18:04:24] <_arawynn> That looks like something went wrong when creating the Wiki. Somebody from the tech team will need to help with that [18:04:40] have u registered ur wiki on google's search console [18:04:42] it helps a little [18:04:51] I’ve tried but it keeps on failing [18:04:56] Idek if I’m doing it properly [18:05:08] any errors or anything [18:05:36] Yeah, it can’t find my “verification token” in the TXT records of the domain or whatever [18:05:44] It’s in Dutch, I have to translate it into English for you [18:06:03] [1/3] well, see, that's an error, as arawynn said tech folks might see [18:06:03] [2/3] are you sure URL is correct tho? [18:06:03] [3/3] no typos in there or in request? [18:06:27] that's not how it works for mirajeze [18:06:38] u register ur url → put in some html tag → get that code → put into Special:ManageWiki/settings, SEO section [18:06:39] you add the key in settings, seo tab [18:06:53] Use the option to do it with a html tag and then configure it in ManageWiki [18:06:54] apply changes → wait a little → click the ok button on GSE [18:06:55] oh let me try this lol [18:07:30] [1/2] Do I use this one [18:07:31] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1464683045209768016/IMG_1243.png?ex=69765be2&is=69750a62&hm=c01bb7e2d1af23061f5b675a65c216e991b8c6a8afef6f83fd0ed5e1393d25bb& [18:07:43] Yes [18:07:54] nvm i got it [18:08:58] Its giving me a html file 🧌 [18:09:14] No option for a html tag [18:09:19] ?

Email has no such verification by default [18:15:10] Still the same error [18:15:15] “The meta tag isn’t correct” [18:15:54] Check your wiki name is correct, you've pasted the right key and try waiting a little bit [18:15:59] It should start working [18:16:07] OH YAYYY [18:16:10] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1464685223252852756/IMG_1248.png?ex=69765de9&is=69750c69&hm=a6c1e1ec65580d4d03626cb10307e13e3ddbef62b8e2135cf6e52e1664ec362f& [18:16:11] I GOT IT!

Is there a way to force it to be regenerated? [19:54:10] There are no thumbnails for SVG files, they're served as SVGs and rendered by the browser directly (`$wgSVGNativeRendering` is globally enabled) [19:59:44] Oh that's odd, that was the only explanation I could think of [20:02:12] Weird, I guess it's an issue with my phone, it works on my computer [21:11:24] [1/2] might be an odd question but is there a way to prevent a page from being created if it does not meet a certain size? let's say someone tries to create a page on a wiki that just has the word "Hi" in it or is 2 bytes in length, that could be prevented. [21:11:24] [2/2] i tried to look around and can see settings for maximum page size on mediawiki, but nothing for minimum. on a wiki i help manage it can be a problem where a user makes a page with no more than a single sentence and then abandons it [21:11:59] abusefilter [21:12:06] [[mw:extension:abuseFilter]] [21:12:06] [21:35:49] that actually already exists as a global fliter but its only to flag, not disallow i thijk [21:37:05] Oh no it is disallowed? [21:37:07] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Special:AbuseFilter/74 [21:40:41] oh wait this might be exactly what i need, lemme check :thumbbrave: [21:55:06] Why is there no "Enable page preview" option? [21:55:19] in the preferences [21:56:39] @ me please [22:23:19] I don't remember it being an option [22:23:25] I thought it was just on by default [22:23:56] if you're talking about live preview that's `$wgWikiEditorRealtimePreview` [22:26:51] [1/2] There is in the page preview settings [22:26:52] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1464748311251779705/image.png?ex=697698ab&is=6975472b&hm=9c80e4dfcdb7102261a9a1b59c7aed76a75f695dff3714e58e27d035eabf654b& [22:27:47] (which can be accessed via the gear icon in the bottom right corner of the popup) [22:28:10] Although I'm not sure rn whether that's available on 1.44 [22:30:04] [1/2] Oh looks like it's available at Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-rendering as well [22:30:04] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1464749120123175027/image.png?ex=6976996b&is=697547eb&hm=643fce31a918bad9d012747ac3280f1ea3ea48ab3e4f4222d56070b9cf15f8fc& [22:30:08] @zuppadicarlo ^ [22:32:05] [1/2] oh right that one [22:32:06] [2/2] curse these generic words [22:38:57] [1/2] I have only the note one [22:38:58] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1464751355846721758/image.png?ex=69769b80&is=69754a00&hm=2422584f31a245f481b43ff9fd2efb2c19b0284fdb7908f3c5595d4adea71025& [22:43:40] I’m new to making a wiki and it’s much more complicated than I imagined! :bunscare: [22:44:15] I hope once I get over this learning curve that it is easier to understand [22:44:23] if you have questions you can ask here [22:44:45] Thank you! I appreciate that. I definitely will! [22:52:22] works, thank you greatly for showing me that page 🦾 [22:55:20] Do you have the required extensions enabled for that feature? [22:56:54] [1/2] Someone else will need to assist if not as I am mobile, but there are three in total needed: [22:56:54] [2/2] https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Popups [23:03:36] Ok, I did the DNS setup for a custom domain. Do I need to do something specific after that in order for the custom domain to work on the wiki? [23:04:28] course mate [23:05:16] That way the actual website works with the domain www.customurl.com/wikipageetc [23:05:48] Have you been going off the guide page on meta wiki? [23:05:57] Yeah, I have [23:06:13] The DNS is set up on my GoDaddy domain [23:06:46] Ok so it's this? [23:06:47] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Special:RequestCustomDomain [23:06:52] Mhm [23:07:34] Is it automatically going to be https for the full custom domain url? [23:08:41] Or would it be http? [23:36:33] Would someone be able to help me set up Template:Horizontal TOC? [23:45:18] what's the wiki? [23:45:38] https://charliebears.miraheze.org [23:46:14] This is my first time doing this, so I apologize in advance if anything I ask is extremely obvious or easy to do LOL [23:46:44] I am currently very confused and doing my best to figure out how this all works [23:48:04] [1/6] wait what a wikipedia template without 500,000 dependencies [23:48:04] [2/6] so it looks like you need to import the following pages: ``` [23:48:04] [3/6] Template:Horizontal TOC [23:48:05] [4/6] Template:TOC limit/styles.css [23:48:05] [5/6] Template:Horizontal TOC/styles.css [23:48:05] [6/6] Template:Horizontal TOC/horizontal-toc-no-parentheses.css``` [23:48:40] Ok, so I'd create all of those pages? Do I need to put anything on them yet? [23:48:50] go to Special:Import to do that and I think there's something about importing from another wiki [23:48:56] lemme check [23:49:37] we don't advice to take things from wikiepdia directly [23:49:53] this one actually only has these 4 dependencies [23:49:58] there's a chance something might be done in simpler way or found in such way [23:50:03] it would very easily be 2 [23:50:20] well yeah, 2 is already too much [23:50:27] [1/2] Ok, so I am doing this wrong I assume? I had created a page called Template:Horizontal TOC and pasted a code [23:50:27] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1464769348768890931/image.png?ex=6976ac42&is=69755ac2&hm=28edd2da94f6756af09cab0d332e3a64729f28d3b5ee91e6346a81760473a3b7& [23:50:33] This was before I asked for help [23:50:46] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1464769426590011607/image.png?ex=6976ac55&is=69755ad5&hm=ad8be228f5b90b0a91a89088847bd6af3789537a3e9fe020cae46050ed54a8e1& [23:50:48] wait I forgot about those oops [23:50:50] This is what shows up with it [23:50:56] nvm ignore what I said [23:51:34] Am I on the right path? 😂 [23:53:18] [1/3] Aha… so it recognises the title but not the description, fun!!

I'm looking into the template now to see if I can make it without so many dependencies [23:55:24] so it looks like the core thing is that it generates the wiki code `
TOC/div` and then styles that [23:59:23] although your wiki uses vector 2022 so the TOC is in the sidebar regardless
