[00:01:25] @notaracham: that's kind of what I was trying to say, yeah. Don't get me wrong, I'm glad #88 also alerted us to the spamming, even if #19 disallowed the spam edit. Just wondered if there were some tweaks we might want to do to the filters. I'm not sure what the sequence of priority is for abuse filters, though [00:03:36] Seems to go with global filters first, the lowest numbered filter to the highest numbered filter, according to this Google AI overview: [00:03:36] https://share.google/aimode/38paGUOvY7jC4ovL0 [00:06:28] I rather read actual documentation or codelines than rely on AI to come up with how it works, but okay [02:17:47] Filter 19 is private, so it makes sense that you're not seeing it specifically [02:19:11] It does show in the logs though, as "Filter description: External links on userpages" [04:54:00] [1/2] Happy Friday, enjoy a jimothy-sized horse voiced by an australian man, doing jumps and having big feelings about farm readiness [04:54:00] [2/2] https://www.youtube.com/shorts/QKF0u-P70OQ [04:57:52] awww [04:58:37] horses like that are always adorable, I've had the privilege of working with one when I was younger in person [05:00:54] [1/2] Horses in general are such a messed-up creature. Functionally, they're like the birds of mammals in how extreme some of their adaptations have gone. [05:00:54] [2/2] But I appreciate how much they just power on regardless and somehow still remain the most-fit to circumstance. [05:04:03] (and yes, they're damn cute) [05:06:20] I used to do horseback riding and such with various horses, and I was in a rodeo, so yes horses are very intereseting [05:10:28] was the middle of the miraheze logo always a copper colour [05:10:43] i swear it was purple some time ago [05:12:36] The original logo always had that darker color in the middle (https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/File:Miraheze_Logo.svg ) we do change it from time to time depending on time of year [05:15:51] I forgot Discord doesn't like to embed SVG images. All's I see is just a bit poop. [05:17:58] the random logo changes must be the thing then [05:26:32] [1/2] If you mean this, then that's the intersex version of the MH logo [05:26:33] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/615786602454581249/1532620458845798410/image.png?ex=6a6d8388&is=6a6c3208&hm=57c84f0b8747af2e7d8ab58c82a87e27d47040ca1e1436114ef5408df5b1d8d7& [05:26:36] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intersex_flag [05:26:55] [1/2] I see. this. thing.

I'm empty without you. [05:40:20] well that explains my mandela effect [05:43:07] for realsies this time [08:39:43] same thing here [08:39:48] imagine that was the image [08:39:51] would be funny [11:26:06] lil sebastian irl? [11:29:28] damn, are you guys keeping this prideheze icon for good lol [11:31:10] eternal pride [14:07:10] rainbows [14:07:19] https://klipy.com/gifs/vomit-rainbow-2 [14:14:03] Yeah, I want it to stay [14:15:00] Even without the context of pride, the animation and colors are nice to look at [14:16:56] I think we'd ought to keep it too tbh [14:34:10] Lesbian Miraheze logo just looks cool [14:40:33] All of them do!! [15:10:30] Ye, it's just really satisfying.

It's not relevant or needed anymore. [17:06:03] they should have done it [19:24:08] [1/2] https://community.fandom.com/wiki/User_blog:Antonio_R._Castro/More_experiences_for_the_fans:_Fandom_Utilities [19:24:09] [2/2] Anyone wants to hurt your eyes with lots of AI images, see here lol [19:26:50] [1/2] Fandom: takes a step forward with their AI guidelines [19:26:51] [2/2] Also Fandom: takes 5 steps backwards producing AI slop [19:30:24] > This is just the beginning of a longer journey. We want Fandom to remain the place where fans find the most complete knowledge about the worlds they love - and to become a place where they can do even more with that knowledge and experiences. [19:30:41] > most complete knowledge [19:30:58] Very funny, considering the hundreds, if not thousands of wikis that have forked over the years [19:31:19] It's a fundamentally impossible thing to do. [19:47:11] Thousands? [19:53:10] Probably like 1-2k notable wikis [19:53:20] Indie Wiki Buddy has like 800-900 [19:53:56] And I know there are like plenty of forked wiki.gg wikis that are either in wiki.gg redirect or not, but not in IWB in either case [19:54:26] Consider that to be another few hundred wikis I guess, but I could be overestimating [19:55:16] And maybe add like another 100-200 forked wikis on Miraheze not added to IWB (again, a very rough estimation, but still) [19:56:24] And that's not including some other unlisted independent wikis with Fandom counterparts too that aren't in IWB yet, which I can't exactly determine the number, but maybe another 100-200? Idk... [19:57:15] Holy. Cheeseburger. [19:57:33] Leave wiki.gg or come to? [19:58:20] Fandom to wiki.gg [19:58:45] <_arawynn> wikis coming from Fandom to Mira is not that rare, I see plenty requests mentioning that [19:59:10] There are a few wikis that did leave wiki.gg to various hosts. One of them joined Weird Gloop [19:59:22] And another left to Fandom 🤣 [20:00:10] https://pragmata.wiki.gg [20:00:47] The wiki in question here is Hytale [20:17:46] :moonch: [20:22:20] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/615786602454581249/1532845892011425842/image.png?ex=6a6e557b&is=6a6d03fb&hm=5c2c277515ace942bd023521a36fd06deba52d29085a7371898dfccf2636381c& [20:23:45] lol [20:27:59] [1/2] thank you, it is one of my goals to make pride versions of server logos that are so good they stay that way eternally [20:27:59] [2/2] it is a good thing to show support on-time, but it is a great thing to show support off-time [20:28:40] https://community.fandom.com/wiki/User:Antonio_R._Castro i wonder why would someone work for this company, ig for money? [20:48:06] a common reason to work at companies, indeed [20:48:21] why does anyone work anywhere [20:48:37] because some guy down the line decided people needed to have money [20:54:04] Why do people work at McDonald’s? Not exactly for the company values [20:56:58] I will stand here and say plenty of the FANDOM Community (and other) Staff are nice and awesome humans who really do care about the communities they serve and are genuinely very helpful and nice to work with within the confines of what the company policy allows [20:58:07] wait, you interacted with them before? guess i don't have that insight [20:58:16] Yes, I have. [20:58:48] This is a combination of hearing from others in the community and my own experiences. [20:59:15] The very start of my wiki journey, the reason I’m on Miraheze and in a lot of ways am who I am, is because of FANDOM. [21:00:00] I started on a FANDOM wiki, and I’m still staff on it to this day, and in the service of that have created multiple support tickets with their support [21:01:31] guess the people in fandom who should be blamed are the execs [21:01:35] not the staff [21:01:56] i do feel bad for the staff having to bear some of the reputation weight if they do face harassment from doing so [21:03:14] Y u p [21:03:56] There’s a reason unpopular updates are posted from the FANDOM brand account and not specific staff [21:05:28] [1/2] harassment, that is obvious [21:05:28] [2/2] i remember watching korean idols getting cancelled from their korean society if they make an mistake [21:06:32] On some level, also worth considering FANDOM is owned by a private for profit investment firm, so, the food chain going up is fundamentally aligned with very different values than the staff at the community level who want to work at fandom because they too are fans [21:06:46] But of course, it’s much more complicated than that [21:07:13] These things can never be simply chalked down to “the evil execs” [21:07:28] I mean, didn't Fandom just do another round of layoffs at GameSpot? Apparently they literally laid off people on paid medical leave... So yeah, the employees are definitely not to blame [21:07:49] i should probably not direct any blame if i have no knowledge of it [21:07:55] Business is messy, complicated, and built off compromise and compromise and interests no one fully understands. [21:08:12] Oh, joy [21:08:17] not even the person who is on top of the pyramid? [21:08:34] that's...horrible. [21:08:38] https://aftermath.site/gamespot-layoffs-july-2026/ [21:08:50] "the fifth round of layoffs" is a wild sentence [21:09:01] Some certainly know what they’re doing a lot more than others do, but I hesitate to claim anyone has the real, full picture [21:09:37] Not to defend FANDOM but this is hardly a TPG original [21:09:38] i suppose that's why RfCs exist [21:09:58] because nobody has that full picture [21:10:11] each person share an fragment, an view of their own [21:10:20] and RfCs intend to get every fragment [21:10:21] yes? [21:10:47] That can be considered an important element of consensus based governance and more broadly democracy yes [21:11:36] Bringing as many perspectives to the table as possible and trying to make sure an outcome is reached where the interests of as many parties are met as nicely as possible [21:12:33] Plenty of companies do layoffs for a lot of reasons, and often don’t exactly have a choice [21:13:30] It sucks yes but it’s, again, more complicated than simply “we want more money, let’s bin some nerds” [21:16:11] [1/2] I’ve had family who know people who work at companies that really do some actual good in the world and benefit people’s lives in addition to making money, and the many of their coworkers get laid off as of late, not just because the shareholders demand blood, but because one of the companies primary sources of income is falling off a cliff soon, and the fiscally responsible (and fidu [21:16:11] [2/2] cially required) course of action is to prepare and downsize and reduce operating costs where possible [22:35:57] well you see, people need food and shelter and having money slightly helps with acquiring those [22:36:51] @orduin: delayed reply, but yes, that likely explains why. thanks for checking :) [23:03:07] is your caps lock key broken [23:03:17] https://klipy.com/gifs/side-eye-hmm-2 [23:22:01] I regret to inform you that it's how FANDOM was stylizing themselves for a time, though they cut that out a bit ago. [23:22:39] The old all-caps style still shows up throughout because wikis have many pages and style debt [23:34:22] masseditregex time [23:35:22] I might be dating myself, but does anyone remember Wikia's brief flanker/sub-brand called OpenServing in the mid-2000s?
