[00:13:29] how long for new wikis? [00:16:39] Someone who has better experience in portable infoboxes than me, is there a way to get images to appear side-by-side? Like, for example, I want to be able to do this: [00:21:07] Depends on when a wiki creator goes through the Queue. But should never take more than 24 hours for sure for them to look at it (and usually WAY less) [00:26:29] [1/3] You can use tag inside a PI's tag https://community.fandom.com/wiki/Help:Infoboxes/Tags#image [00:26:30] [2/3] Or is that not sufficient for what you need? [00:26:30] [3/3] Also what happens when you just put 2 /image next to each other in the PI code? Haven't really messed that much with multiple images specifically in PI's but done quite intricate PI's otherwise though [00:30:06] This is what happens when you do them side by side. [00:30:35] I'm not a huge fan of the gallery, as you can't see both images at a time, as far as I can tell [00:59:00] huh, yeah seems like gallery inside a PI, while using the same syntax as a gallery outside a PI, doesn't get parsed in remotely the same way. Probably best bet would be some CSS to make to image tags to appear side by side [01:00:43] Hmm, okay [01:00:47] I'll see what I can do. [01:00:59] Do the image tags take as an argument? [01:03:27] As you can see in the link I provided initially no, only alt, caption and default are possible child tags [01:10:13] Hmm I was thinking maybe put a `` tag inside `` tag (since navigation accepts any wikitext), to get the normal outside of PI gallery, but for some weird reason in my test, that seems to create 2 copies of the gallery, which is just bizarre... [02:17:44] Hi guys [02:18:38] Here I come back with a question, in the photo you can see that the info on the page is just a point, how can I change that? [03:29:03] Could someone help me find where’s the setting to require users to log in before editing [03:29:40] In the wiki administration settings [03:29:57] Wait nvm I found it [03:34:15] it has to be coded inside navigation tag, I think, i.e. you'll be able to format two images together, correct size is the key [03:36:24] [1/2] does the page have a text tho? [03:36:24] [2/2] you can use WikiSEO's description features, just bear in mind that it'll work for such links, but Google will do his thing anyway (it ignores a lot of things) [03:37:30] preventing anons from editing is usually done via user groups, by removing edit right from "*" [03:38:41] Thanks, I just enabled requiring a verified email bc it was better for our purposes anyway [03:39:53] good point [04:15:27] oh? https://meta.miraheze.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:John&curid=269&diff=336939&oldid=328988&diffmode=source [04:17:39] Weird choice [04:26:26] yeah haha [04:33:36] why is there a link to comment on comment's page [04:34:36] because its a template with a list [04:37:42] pretty sure this should be from 13-19 [04:54:08] 18 years a legal adult age in majority of countries? [04:55:05] maybe update it to be "This user is underage" then [04:56:42] [1/2] The very definition of "teen" is: [04:56:42] [2/2] "the years of a person's life when they are between 13 and 19 years old" so I agree that should be changed.... [05:06:49] I’m not a teenager [10:42:01] 17 is presumably a cutoff because 18 is a legal milestone in many ways that transitions from colloquial teen to the idea of adult [10:42:43] though the term is obviously not right considering you have eighteen and nineteen [11:11:58] I agree with the "underage" concept. Though why there is a public display of a user's age bracket, I'm not sure. [11:34:09] many users in that range tend to be fairly upfront with it, especially when coming from certain communities with a very large underage audience [12:05:19] do you know how i can hide a part of a page? maybe i could put the image early in the page then hide it, so maybe popups detects it but you cant see it on the page? [12:13:48] I'm not massively sure we should be encouraging kids to make their age public tbg [12:15:23] they shouldn't [12:16:17] @raidarr so maybe the solution is to just delete the template [12:16:31] I'd be inclined to lend support to such a request [12:16:51] @raidarr consider such requested [12:18:08] @Meta-Wiki Administrators [12:19:23] [1/2] I mean, kids nowadays usually just put "I'm a minor" on their pages (twi, tumblr, etc) for adults to avoid interacting w/ them [12:19:23] [2/2] at least I avoid them lol [12:20:51] Yes, it has text, but what I want is for it to display the wiki overview, a preview of each page doesn't interest me [12:38:38] just the general thing from system message? I forgot which is responsible for it, but I imagine you can inject it into templates like infobox or make a separate one [12:40:01] little more should be needed [12:41:03] in general I would want to avoid a circumstance where being minor or not is relevant in the first place ie, if I really wouldn't want minors to see it, probably shouldn't be posting it [12:52:50] [1/2] Hello, I think that (in this case) comment template was in black bold and without link when i created it. Not sure why it's now different. [12:52:50] [2/2] But that row must be there, it's template, as you said :) [12:54:43] from what I could tell that list was just inline links of templates with the text next to it representing the 'real text' [12:57:54] fellas, any advices on attaching an email to the wiki for contacts (and how to create email w/ custom domain or it's not necessary)? [12:59:03] a music press writer found my wiki and asked to contact him holy fuck [12:59:44] small entities often do (whateveritisthatlooksgood)@gmail.com and call it a day [12:59:53] aight [13:00:29] mediawiki has a built in send email feature, not sure if you can/would want to make it publicly usable and advertised but that is another venue and it additionally does not leak the email it goes to unless you reply [13:01:16] and after that if you want to be fancy you could get a domain and then use a mail service to send mail through that domain, but for wikis of your scale that may not be desired and at this point you start needing to fork out [13:01:39] yeah, thought so too [13:13:12] <_AR1A#9993> How do i achieve this affect? [13:19:08] [1/2] on wiki? [13:19:08] [2/2] in 
 tags
[13:19:24] 	  it will create code block
[13:19:52] 	  if you want code formatting inside normal text then `` (just like here)
[13:20:49] 	 <_AR1A#9993> Oh thanks
[13:25:11] 	  Hello
[13:25:29] 	  I'm new on Miraheze
[13:25:40] 	  I'm glad I'll be able to be part of this community
[13:28:15] 	  I also asked for a wiki, called AlessioMedia or Alessio I don't know anymore. I saw that you have Discord and I said why not go in
[13:40:34] 	  your wiki is still not created?
[13:42:34] 	  Yes. I launched AlessioMedia in 2017 and that's why my user is AlessioMedia2017.
[13:42:57] 	  I hope I get approval for my wiki
[13:43:12] 	  Because AlessioMedia is ready to move to Miraheze
[13:53:58] 	  The poster of the move to Miraheze
[13:54:19] 	  you know how to import wiki to another place?
[13:54:30] 	  Ok
[13:55:05] 	  I mean how to migrate, there are instructions and we can help if habe questions
[13:55:13] 	  And I didn't do the wiki the first time on Fandom
[13:55:36] 	  your wiki was independent wiki?
[13:55:47] 	  Yes!
[13:56:08] 	  have you exported its content data?
[13:56:17] 	  Yes!
[13:56:40] 	  alright, hope wiki creator will check your request soon
[13:57:07] 	  Yes, so as I said, today AlessioMedia has found its reliable partner, Miraheze.
[13:58:20] 	  I am Romanian and the language of the wiki will be Romanian, not English although I speak in addition to Romanian and English
[14:05:09] 	  spacebar at the start of the line will also drop text into a pre-like code block, which I know because it rather irritatingly happens to me by accident :p
[14:06:36] 	  the problem with the request is that it gives no real idea of what AlessioMedia is or what its boundaries are - note that wiki requests are mainly reviewed to see how well they suit the [[Content Policy]]
[14:06:36] 	 https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Content_Policy
[14:06:37] 	  
[14:08:34] 	  Ok
[14:08:48] 	  So what's it like with the wiki
[14:10:14] 	  what the wiki is about and what its purpose, give it a description
[14:10:22] 	  Ok
[14:10:55] 	  So does the description need to be fixed?
[14:14:17] 	  yes, what is AlessioMedia exactly
[14:15:21] 	  AlessioMedia is a fake company launched by me in 2017. Dealing with fake channels, productions and others
[14:17:30] 	  It's not a company, is a community
[14:21:00] 	  I'm not really good at describing a site
[14:30:54] 	  Before I made an account at Miraheze, I read that you are not allowed to create multiple wikis. So I come with the question. Why can't users create multiple wikis?
[14:33:43] 	  alright, add this in your request
[14:34:19] 	  a lot of times people request wikis and then don't work on them, leaving empty
[14:34:32] 	  Ok
[14:34:50] 	  on Miraheze abandoned for a long time wikis are deleted
[14:34:51] 	  [1/6] hmm, interesting idea for sure, should be as simple as giving it it the CSS attribute `display:none` I couple ways to go about doing that specifically. Though I would say the easiest way would probably be to just give the image itself that you put in a class HTML attribute (ie, `[[File:image.png|class=hide]]`, you can call the class whatever you want, they
[14:34:51] 	 https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/File:image.png
[14:34:51] 	  [2/6]  just need to be the same for all pages where you do it). Then add to your MediaWiki:Common.css 
[14:34:51] 	  [3/6] ```.hide {
[14:34:51] 	  [4/6] display: none;
[14:34:52] 	  [5/6] }```
[14:34:52] 	  [6/6] (making sure the first line is whatever class you actually put in on the image). That should at least make the image not seen when browsing the page normally, whether it will be picked up by popups, I can't tell or not for at all xD
[14:34:52] 	  I change the description for the 3rd time
[14:37:41] 	  also Miraheze's technical resources are not as big as FANDOM's, so when one user requests a lot of wikis and then don't work on them it's not good for platform
[14:42:07] 	  Ok
[14:42:38] 	  I modified the description of the wiki to 3rd time
[14:51:00] 	  it works :D
[14:51:14] 	  at least it seems to?
[14:51:16] 	  let me test somethinhg
[14:53:45] 	  yep, works
[14:53:52] 	  thanks for your help, this is a nice workaround :)
[16:42:21] 	  [1/2] fellas, how contact link in footer is supposed to work if there's no button for inserting it?
[16:42:21] 	  [2/2] [[mw:Extension:ContactPage]]
[16:42:21] 	 https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:ContactPage
[16:42:22] 	  
[16:44:28] 	  on second thought, the extension requires a user w/ confirmed email, not email itself ...
[16:44:43] 	  that's weird, if you ask me
[16:52:09] 	  guess I'll put it a way for the time being
[17:29:29] 	  Ill go ahead and boldly action on iy
[17:29:46] 	  Hey @Zppix
[17:29:48] 	  And thanks
[17:30:09] 	  I'm currently blowing on some wikipedias
[17:40:23] 	  Doesn't look like this is so.
[17:41:22] 	  don't use gallery
[17:41:41] 	  in navigation tag you can code part of infobox like normal wiki template
[17:42:14] 	  Navigation tag?
[17:42:53] 	  [1/2] I said that exactly in previous message
[17:42:54] 	  [2/2] checked PI guides? they are in pinned messages here
[17:43:23] 	  Ah, I see
[17:46:32] 	  [1/2] for example
[17:46:32] 	  [2/2] `
[[File:{{{flag|}}}|90px]] [[File:{{{coat|}}}|90px]]/div/navigation`
[17:46:32] 	 https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Template:%7bflag https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/File:%7b%7b%7bcoathttps://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/File:%7b%7b%7bflag https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/File:%7b%7b%7bcoat
[17:46:45] 	  Right
[17:46:49] 	  That makes sense
[17:58:18] 	  this is incorrect, however it is expected that if multiple wikis are made, all are used, otherwise future requests will be rejected if wiki creators reasonably believe they will go unused
[19:15:33] 	 CosmicAlpha: seems that the CVT feed reader disconnected from #miraheze-feed awhile ago, and will need a restart
[19:23:29] 	  Will do shortly
[19:28:10] 	  Done
[19:37:25] 	  Ufff, Well, is that, or look for the MediaWiki page that modifies that
[19:37:37] 	  Thank u
[23:43:25] 	  Is there a special page that tells people what skins people are actually using in the wiki?  I'm thinking of removing some.
