[01:08:45] Seeing this on the template page 🤔 [01:09:26] And about this, some code seems to be missing from Module:Color contrast. [03:27:37] you want to find editors for your wiki? [04:02:00] I'll get right one it. Thank you for checking! [04:04:30] That fixed it. Thank you! 😄 [04:33:22] im not sure if your just asking but i dont think so i just want a wiki for my research but idk if this medium is the one to use for that [04:34:21] oh, you haven't requested the wiki yet then? [04:36:15] [1/3] I believe there reasearch wikis are a thing here [04:36:16] [2/3] I mean, anything goes as long is it doesn't break Content Policy [04:36:16] [3/3] wikis are good because anything can be linked together easily [04:48:13] how do you get your wiki to be light [04:48:17] to the right [04:48:25] like on wikipedia [05:27:31] `float: right;` in CSS [05:32:35] do i just put that anywhere in my document [05:32:36] like at the top [05:40:03] nope [05:43:11] where do i access this css [05:43:39] wait a sec please [05:49:14] what kind of infobox you are using? taken from Wikipedia? [05:52:09] yes [07:29:50] idk what classes it uses, you might try to copy Wikipedia's `MediaWiki.Common.css` page to your wiki [07:30:49] you need only some portion of it but I can't help w/ finding which one, people often end up copying the entire thing [07:40:53] Taken from Fandom! [07:40:59] (Sorry I was sleeping) [07:42:36] oh, this was aimed at Jabal lol [07:45:22] [1/4] oh, this was aimed at Jabal lol [07:45:22] [2/4] if you're taking stuff from FANDOM then you just need to enable PortableInfobox, as we said previously [07:45:22] [3/4] go to "Manage this wiki's extensions" link in admin sidebar, then find PortableInfobox either w/ menu's own search bar or by scrolling the "Parser hooks" tab [07:45:23] [4/4] tick the box, save changes, import or copy the infobox (but provide some credits in this case) [07:45:41] [1/2] I realized that just now lmao [07:45:41] [2/2] Thanks for the reminder! [07:45:50] I already enabled PI [07:46:03] then you're good to do the rest [07:46:37] Also, how can I add a wiki description for the Discover Wikis page? [07:50:14] https://login.miraheze.org/wiki/Template:Quote [07:50:16] Also, found this1 [07:50:23] Google is indeed powerful [07:53:14] Can I take the code of this template and paste it for my own quote template? [07:55:20] [1/2] yeah but that's exactly what I said previously too, these templates are simple and can be taken from anywhere, they don't require extensions [07:55:21] [2/2] the thing is that you gotta put some credits or source, the fact that you copied the template, it's a licensing matter [07:55:51] Ooh! Thanks [07:56:12] first link in admin menu, the core settings [07:56:59] Ty! [07:58:11] https://esincomics.miraheze.org/wiki/Template:Quote [07:58:13] Alright! [07:58:43] It's great :D [08:10:04] Thank you so much for your help! [08:11:24] np [08:13:28] Look at this super cool infobox [08:13:34] lol [08:13:40] Thank you again [09:20:20] Also [09:20:29] I'd like to have page previews like Wikipedia has [09:20:40] You hover over a page link and it gives you a little preview [09:21:13] Is this possible in Miraheze? [09:22:29] i've seen fandom wikis do it, so I'd assume it's a CSS thing [09:24:05] I see [09:26:49] I have pointed my domain to Miraheze, and now I want to verify it on the Google Search Console. Is there any way to do that? [09:29:03] [1/3] it's several extensions - popups, pageimages and textextracts [09:29:03] [2/3] I haven't worked w/ them tho so can't help w/ configurations, check documentations on MediaWiki [09:29:04] [3/3] pageimages might be especially tricky because it has weird algorithm to pick a main image [09:29:56] you submitted this wiki on console before adding custom domain? [09:31:00] more likely js, I knew guy who implemented it on FANDOM [09:31:04] [1/3] Ooh [09:31:04] [2/3] I'll look into it further [09:31:04] [3/3] Ty! [09:33:19] forgot to add, you need to enable text and images ones first, only after that popups will be available to turn on [09:42:00] Okiee [09:46:01] The move's been going great! [09:47:11] I'm not quite sure what you mean. But if you're asking me whether I verified domain ownership in the console before pointing the domain to Miraheze, then my answer is no. [09:58:33] Couldn't find PageImages [10:00:14] literally here when you just open the link [10:00:43] 🤦‍♂️ Oh God, I'm so dumb. Thank you! [10:00:54] it's ok lol [11:20:56] I missed 'source editing' [11:20:56] Damn [11:21:02] It's all more fun again [13:50:46] y'all know the trick when you copy text from some page but the site inserts a copyright/source comment you'll see after pasting? [13:57:56] [1/2] also opinions on hiding the "This page was last edited ..." part of footer? [13:57:57] [2/2] I mean, it's still understandable by page history, and does feel confusing on main page consisting of templates [14:44:43] hey can someone give me a sick userpage template? i just made my own wiki [14:50:57] i also need some basic essential templates too [14:51:03] i.e a block template [14:51:25] whatever you mean by userpage template, the general advice is - look up an existing one and either import it or use as example to code by yourself [14:52:07] thats fair [14:52:20] can i use yours as an example [14:52:48] why mine lol [14:53:19] i bet it looks cool [14:53:49] and why not Wikipedia ones? [14:54:43] idk [15:03:28] <:staredog:783011421268082718> [15:03:54] i like being able to see when a content page was last updated without having to go into page history as an extra step. [15:04:18] so i'd prefer to keep the line in the footer [15:44:24] How do I get a template to display an undocumented parameter? [16:02:28] i’ll just copy the whole thing [16:07:20] I mean like everything else really, there is only one correct answer to that: "It depends" [17:07:06] I mostly find it embarrassing because some pages I haven't edited in ages and I don't want people to think that they're like...being neglected or something lol (it's just that there hasn't really been a lot of new information on Mr. side-character that appeared in 1 episode of a mid-sized television series 25 years ago) [17:07:31] yeah lol [17:08:19] as I said I'm irked mostly by main page, because I update the news section which is a template on its own [19:50:27] i definitely like the last updated since most of our pages deal with rapidly changing software ,and knowing how old the page content is vs current versions is important [20:06:56] Anyone want to help me start up my wiki?? [20:07:42] What do you need help with? [20:07:42] have you requested a wiki already? [20:07:53] Yeah, it's a thing now [20:08:00] I just need advice on like [20:08:11] The main page, templates [20:08:18] OH, and the Notice template broke for me [20:09:24] [[mw:Help:Templates]] [20:09:24] https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Templates [20:09:24]

[20:09:27] First, I'd strongly advise establishing some rules; a wiki with no rules cannot exist per any Content Policy, and your wiki is likely to be shut down if it's not moderated [20:09:43] SHIT [20:09:51] In that case, I shall start with rules [20:15:33] alright [20:15:38] now i just need a main page [20:18:54] has anyone used the other import form, "from another wiki"? [20:40:15] upd: it works well lol [20:40:26] why people even suffer w/ xml files? [20:55:29] alright [20:55:39] now my article looks like an exact copy from wikipedia [20:55:44] minus a few things [20:56:06] I don't understand why everyone want to be like Wikipedia lol [20:56:16] wikipedia is cool [20:56:30] + its laid out in a format everyone recognizes cause of how popular it is [20:56:45] wikipedia is ass [20:56:45] why not leave just to Wikipedia then [20:56:55] Thank you! [20:56:59] i cant create my own articles in wikipedia [20:57:00] dude wtf [20:57:03] i got ip banned [20:57:10] for something i did in 2021 [20:57:20] I can possibly assist with that. [20:57:38] Can you give me the IP that was banned? [20:57:41] Hold up [20:57:49] That sounds shady as hell [20:57:51] bruh [20:58:34] i dont remember [20:58:37] idk what i did [20:58:49] don't share your IP publicly lol [20:58:50] Do you remember an old account that you used? [20:58:56] and to strangers too [20:59:10] nah its okay [20:59:18] i got my own wikipedia now [20:59:28] also that's the convo is not related to Miraheze at this point [20:59:41] wikipedia uses miraheze doesnt it? [20:59:53] LOL [20:59:58] no [21:00:03] We use MediaWiki; not Miraheze. [21:00:42] i thought they were the same [21:00:55] Miraheze uses MediaWiki. [21:19:21] Who is @wiki_sysop [21:20:04] Take a guess. [21:36:13] Please change your display name to something not misleading [21:36:27] alr [21:37:16] done [21:38:15] Hmmmmm [21:38:21] I suggest changing your profile picture as well; many people associate "wiki" with Wikipedia, so people may still think you're a Wikipedia administrator [21:38:23] Which administrator [21:39:21] my wiki [21:39:49] do i have to [21:39:53] its a public image [21:40:51] It's only a suggestion, but one you should take; otherwise, you could be seen as impersonating a Wikipedia administratior [21:41:32] Ohh so not Wikipedia ^^ [21:41:40] ye [21:42:28] Weird you said this then, but 🤷‍♀️ [22:14:58] Since you didn't seem to listen, I am forcibly changing your nickname to change me, feel free to change it to something that represents your onwiki username or something not related to a position of authority, thanks. If you continue to not do so, you will just be removed from the server. [22:20:31] bro its just a discord username [22:26:12] So why are you also commenting on it? <:thonk:900436937935032340> [22:28:09] My thoughts exactly [22:44:52] <572943, replying to wiki_sysop> huh i think i recognise you [22:45:07] LMAO [22:45:13] <572943> this you? [22:46:38] could be a wp sysop ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ [22:46:44] heavily doubt it but [22:48:46] Not only is that user not a Wikipedia administrator, they were indefinitely blocked from Wikipedia and even globally locked across Wikimedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/Contributor_118,784 [23:08:17] That a good action to take. Thanks 👍 [23:43:19] wel [23:43:23] this went south [23:43:25] sorry guys [23:57:21] there [23:57:24] i fixed it [23:59:19] Thank you [23:59:33] They have been banned
