[03:06:59] Guys [03:08:29] Why is this? [03:29:30] [1/2] well, your your description wasn't clear so creator asks for more details [03:29:31] [2/2] reply to them in your wiki request [03:29:43] oh [03:29:58] on Meta wiki I mean, not email [05:54:44] me and my friend has made a wiki but idk how to give him bureaucrat permissions. Does he have to make a edit in order to promote? [05:55:20] public or private wiki? [05:55:35] public wiki. [05:55:45] process is the same, private just needs extra steps [05:56:21] go to `Special:UserRights/`user-name-here page [05:57:57] I'm inputing the name but it is saying it is wrong. I know it is not. [05:57:58] there will be user groups flags [05:58:26] does the input field brings you suggestions? [05:58:36] and did he visited the wiki? [05:58:40] at least once [05:59:04] oh, nvm he hasn't visited [08:03:07] You don't have to baby him, on my wiki I have different naming practices than say Wikipedia for a reason. If he's making uncooperative edits that aren't in good faith its fine to put your foot down. [09:15:45] anyone know if it's possible to target mobile frontend in css, particularly in templatestyles/css extension subpages? [11:53:18] /ban [11:55:24] eh? [12:12:34] Sorry if my question is indiscreet, but on average, how much does it cost to host one wiki? [12:14:06] I think folks at MediaWiki server are more likely to know or suggest something, although we have indie wiki people here too [12:16:09] I mean, how much does it cost Miraheze to host a wiki? [12:17:32] Miraheze hosts a lot of wikis though [12:17:41] and run their own servers [12:17:55] I calculated `number of wikis`/`total costs related to "Hosting"`, and it gives me about £0.25, which seems very low to me [12:29:17] [1/2] there is no fixed value [12:29:17] [2/2] it depends on a lot of factors [12:30:25] [1/2] if your wiki has very few visits a month, very few writes/reads [12:30:25] [2/2] it probably would not cost much because you could maybe use a simple 1 core CPU + 2 GB server [12:30:42] (maybe even less if you use SQLite, but MW support for that is a bit funky ig) [15:21:01] With the same money, the efficiency between each wiki paying for different hosting is far more inferior than a wiki farm [15:24:22] [1/4] Why inferior? [15:24:22] [2/4] *Waste resources into thin air [15:24:22] [3/4] *Waste a lot of time investing in something you can't really control as Mediawiki is hella complex [15:24:22] [4/4] *Lose money for unnecessary needs [16:13:24] I was wondering if there's any estimate on how long image imports usually take (from Phabricator)? I understand Miraheze is run by volunteers, I truly don't mean to be disrespectful, but it has been about a month since & I just want to make sure my request didn't get stuck [16:38:01] submitted via wiki or phabricator? [16:43:13] For image imports, you should upload directly, way faster and don't have to wait for processing [16:43:37] if its too large of an import you can't. [16:44:00] well rather its tediomus [16:44:10] Oh, I mean using mass upload tool and upload images directly [16:44:52] https://github.com/Aspallar/Wiki-Up [16:44:58] ^this [16:48:13] [[Moving a wiki to Miraheze]] suggests making a Phabricator task for this, so I did. Recently, I attempted to use UploadWizard, but there were several issues with that [16:48:13] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Moving_a_wiki_to_Miraheze [16:48:14]

[16:48:46] can you link the ticket? [16:49:58] Here’s the ticket: https://phabricator.miraheze.org/T11174 [16:57:13] idk if macfan is able to do imports these days [16:57:22] paladox is offline [16:58:10] there's quite a backlog [17:00:28] @paladox any chance to go tru import requests? some sit there for a month apparently [17:00:49] i've been through the imports yesturday? [17:01:04] what about phab ticket above? [17:01:59] i haven't looked at phab [17:02:26] well actually that's just under "mediawiki". [17:03:13] we probably need to update the guide [17:03:20] *too [19:41:20] I see the images now. Thank you both. [19:42:58] For the record, similar image import tasks from around that time (sonicpedia, pizzatower, etc.) are also tagged "MediaWiki" and they were resolved. The guide does not mention tagging otherwise. [19:43:55] I don't know how phab really should work tbh [19:44:09] I assumed there could be some tag for imports [19:45:26] pizzatower admin also has reached us here after starting ticket [19:45:43] /and that's how I joined them lol/ [22:59:56] Does anyone know how to set up a Feed (for an Article of the Day or On this Day...) on a Wiki Main Page? It's a little out of my paygrade here. I have the extension FeaturedFeeds and RSS. I'm currently not using Miraheze currently but I thought I'd ask here. Any help would be appreciated.
