Both sides are bickering excessively and these conversations are not conducive to anything useful. You must remember after all that we are on a Discord server about a wiki farm, not a political discussion server. As such, for the purposes of moderation, a temporary moratorium on politics is decreed for 2 weeks due to this excessive and needless back and forth between all parties that has be [03:05:44] [discord] Unbelievable that he quarrelled with that guy for a whole night [03:05:54] [discord] That guy is just a b**ch [03:06:06] he is lol [03:06:08] [discord] And I told him to ignore [03:06:13] [discord] Okay stop here [03:06:28] [discord] Unbelievable that he (the Chinese) quarrelled with that guy for a whole night (edited) [03:07:40] [discord] That guy (Probably from South America?) is just a b**ch (edited) [03:08:06] [discord] @GT610 watch your language, personal attacks are prohibited [03:08:15] [discord] Okay [03:08:36] [discord] <城市酸儒文人挖坑> may need #political for this [03:09:00] [discord] As I said, we're a Discord server for a *wiki farm*, not politics. I don't think that's needed. [03:09:11] [discord] <城市酸儒文人挖坑> OK [03:10:00] [discord] Also, it was so disgusting that he sent me private messages the other day... I just blocked him [03:10:39] [discord] <城市酸儒文人挖坑> I don't know who blocked me [03:10:58] [discord] <城市酸儒文人挖坑> You can't hear the Internationale in English [03:11:19] [discord] Okay let's just stop here [03:12:17] I feel very sad that many Chinese people are totally brainwashed to support a person that killed many people... two of them in here are enough [03:12:29] [discord] <城市酸儒文人挖坑> How many Michael Jackson songs have I listened to? I've heard songs from Nazi Germany and political songs from capitalist countries [03:12:33] [discord] Not only a person, but a whole system [03:12:37] [discord] Come on Tintle, stop [03:12:50] [discord] <城市酸儒文人挖坑> as I know there are three Chinese people here [03:13:06] [discord] Disconverse please [03:13:11] [discord] <城市酸儒文人挖坑> I will stop if he stop first [03:13:28] [discord] Alright, great. Next person who continues gets muted [03:14:04] [discord] Btw, what happened with Orain? It was a wiki farm too or something like that. [03:14:36] [discord] Got hacked, went down and since two longtime Orain users founded Miraheze a month before, a lot of people came over to Miraheze [03:15:02] [discord] I wrote a whole explanation on the topic on the SN not too long ago [03:16:08] [discord] <城市酸儒文人挖坑> what is orain? [03:16:21] [discord] A wiki farm which predates Miraheze [03:17:07] [discord] <城市酸儒文人挖坑> This is not well known in Chinese wiki circles [03:18:26] [discord] This was nearly a decade ago and it shutdown so many years ago that I'd be surprised if anyone still remembered it [03:18:43] [discord] Many longtime Miraheze users actually come from Orain such as John, Reception and others [03:19:03] [discord] I actually started off back in Orain many years back and moved to Miraheze when it fell [03:20:59] [discord] I suggest to not allow non-Latin letters anymore [03:21:07] [discord] I suggest to not allow non-Latin letters anymore in usernames (edited) [03:21:38] [discord] Maybe I'm not the appropriate person to suggest that because I don't have an account on Miraheze [03:21:50] [discord] But anyway, I do. [03:24:20] [discord] No [03:24:33] [discord] You should respect others' freedom [03:24:59] [discord] Using non-Latin characters is user's freedom (If system supports) [03:25:06] [discord] Miraheze is a private enterprise, not the state [03:25:37] [discord] So technically, it's freedom too, as long as a government is not involved [03:27:05] [discord] It's truly inappropriate for you to give this suggestion, as you don't have an account on Miraheze [03:27:38] [discord] Anyway, if not illegal, choosing a username is user's freedom and cannot be intervened [03:28:51] [discord] We're thinking of implementing a system where users can choose a username in Latin too alongside their username in a non-Latin keyboard [03:32:29] [discord] You mean Latin letters will be supported? [03:32:51] [discord] I remembered that MediaWiki supports non-English letters by default [03:33:11] I find non-Latin usernames confusing and hard to distinguish, too, but I personally would not support any regime which forces users to use Latin usernames [03:34:11] Wikis, could, however, have a local username policy (ex. Meta Wiki, due to the global implications there, as it's a global/central wiki) prohibiting non-Latin usernames [03:35:34] [discord] Users are global [03:36:01] [discord] Prohibiting users on Meta using non-Latin means prohibiting it globally [03:42:38] @GT610, yes, that's why it *couldn't* be a Meta policy. It'd have to be a global policy amendment in Meta's case to be effective on Meta [03:43:07] [discord] The moratorium has been, hesistantly, rescinded following conferring with a non-moderator but now 5 day kickbans will be issued in their place following this severely unruly behavior [03:43:37] Agent: 👍 to that. The other approach was overly blunt [03:43:57] [discord] If you say so [03:51:47] [discord] Miraheze is not a politics forum and if you want to discuss politics you should probably go to politics subreddit at Reddit - not the Miraheze's weird chatrooms [03:52:05] [discord] There's other stuff on Miraheze to be worked on and shitposting around politics is not one of them. [03:56:12] [discord] also [03:56:27] [discord] the suggestion would make more sense to be ASCII characters [03:56:36] [discord] rather than all latin letters [03:58:02] [discord] well that's a discrimination based on the language ability, which is obviously... against the CoC [03:58:05] [discord] probably should move on [05:38:55] dmehus: I haven't read the full conversation but I imagine you do support my idea of allowing users to set an alternative Latin name that would display alongside their non-Latin name? [06:51:52] [discord] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/615786602454581249/959344331142094878/Region.png [08:04:04] [discord] I do suggest that user could use non-Latin name like Chinese, Japanese and etc [08:08:45] [discord] OOPS, why so much got banned from the server, showed in #mod-log ? [08:08:48] [discord] What did I missed [12:07:35] [discord] whoosh, no idea [12:08:21] [discord] I know that the guy with hanzi in its name was a bit... exaggerated, but the others I have no clue [13:04:08] Can this message be relayed to Discord? [13:15:04] [discord] It is [13:41:43] [discord] Make 965, 328 (and surrounding areas) purple in r/place [15:00:09] [discord] Could I chat about Mediawiki here? @Agent ? [15:00:21] Sure [15:01:09] About general MediaWiki, sure [15:11:31] [discord] like how general MediaWiki? Could I chat setting up a self-hosted wiki? [15:16:31] Yeah, that's okay here [15:16:46] Since it's -offtopic [15:18:47] [discord] Yes you can [15:19:03] [discord] We've had various users use -offtopic as an MW support channel lol [15:23:13] [discord] @Jst Tan What do you want to know? [15:25:08] [discord] 🤣 [15:25:15] [discord] it is active here so why not [15:25:37] [discord] I wanna to test hosting my own wiki farm (for my another group for fun), but I wonder how to do it [15:26:54] [discord] and doesn’t want to compete or do any effect to Miraheze through so don’t worry [16:05:04] [discord] https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Wiki_family https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Category:Wiki_farm may help [16:05:04] [url] Manual:Wiki family - MediaWiki | www.mediawiki.org [16:05:05] [url] Category:Wiki farm - MediaWiki | www.mediawiki.org [16:05:19] It's more complicated than you think I'm afraid [16:05:34] even hosting a single wiki by yourself is not the easiest thing, a wiki farm is another level [16:06:07] [discord] https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Installation_guide @Jst Tan Read the I linked for some basic info, it took a while for me to set up 1 wiki [16:06:08] [url] Manual:Installation guide - MediaWiki | www.mediawiki.org [16:06:40] [discord] Reception123 I think I have installed single wikis 3 times, once on Windows, twice on Linuyx [16:07:09] ah, using windows to host is quite rare I think [16:07:42] [discord] That ended badly and with a lot of screaming [16:08:11] [discord] Linux never failed me with wiki hosting [16:10:12] Reception123 You around to see a DM I left you on Discord, or is this the wrong time to ask? [16:11:20] I can have a look [16:11:56] Reception123 Alright then. [16:12:06] Done [16:12:41] Saw the message. [16:16:33] [discord] I found the manual for wiki family too. But I saw there are basic principle and many more,do I needed to follow all of the steps in the page or I could set a wiki farm up by using the basic principle? [16:16:50] [discord] Sorry if it soind strange, I kinda confused [16:42:16] [discord] I think the basic stuff can work, but you may have to google or ask on IRC if things go wrong [16:56:47] [discord] so I could use the basic principle: [16:56:47] [discord] https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Wiki_family#Basic_principles [16:56:48] [url] Manual:Wiki family - MediaWiki | www.mediawiki.org [16:57:22] [discord] As listed here? [16:58:06] [discord] also how to join the IRC channel? I never use IRC before actually [16:58:07] [discord] I think it looks like you *may* be able to set up using that stuff [16:59:13] [discord] https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki_on_IRC - there are links to the I*RC channels, mediwiki aslo has a discord I think [16:59:13] [url] MediaWiki on IRC - MediaWiki | www.mediawiki.org [17:07:07] [discord] There hv but it is more inactive then this [17:07:59] [discord] Mediawiki discord can be activbe [17:10:01] [discord] Miraheze here is more active lol [17:10:02] [discord] https://discord.com/invite/ZrV2Ex9 [17:10:02] [url] MediaWiki | discord.com [17:10:16] [discord] I am in it 🤣 [17:10:25] [discord] Same here. [17:10:45] [discord] I may help, but my knowage is limted [17:11:30] [discord] Limited is okay for me too [17:11:59] [discord] I managed to set up wikis three times, (4 I think) but not a farm [17:12:02] [discord] so I just only needed to follow what showed in Basic Principle only? And then could start a wiki farm? [17:12:17] [discord] Oh cool. [17:13:24] [discord] I think setting up a wiki and a farm is similar
