[00:00:38] https://qharul.miraheze.org/wiki/Main_Page [00:05:23] Do you see it? [00:08:11] why does the css i applied not show but when i go into a private tab as an anonymous it shows [00:11:28] @xqct private tabs disable addons i believe [00:11:39] so that might be your answer [00:12:06] may i ask what you mean by addons? [00:12:13] browser extensions [00:12:18] i see [00:12:27] lemme disable them and see if theres any change [00:12:43] it also clears your cache [00:13:05] have you tried CTRL + F5 on the page [00:13:12] yes [00:13:34] MediaWiki:common.css correct? [00:13:39] yea [00:14:27] Still dont know whats wrong [00:14:49] should look like this [00:15:00] but its this [00:31:22] I believe Vector uses the $wgIcon so you need to put it in that instead [01:17:42] yes [01:17:43] I think it's down [01:17:45] Miraheze is down [01:17:53] ah [01:17:54] howd u import it bc it doesnt show up as the skins i have [01:17:55] yeah, it's down. [01:17:55] Follow the message on the page. [01:18:07] additional settings [01:18:18] oh shoot it down [01:18:25] is there an outage? [01:18:26] I am also having issues. [01:18:26] i'lll change ethe skin when it comes back [01:18:36] booo [01:18:37] i blame it on bts and selena gomez [01:19:59] sorry im on stan twitter like 24/7 i cant go a minute without ending bts and selena [01:22:17] its joever [01:22:43] luckily it was only out for like what? 3 minutes [01:23:03] wait were barack [01:23:04] kinda doubt consults internet a korean singing group would take down Miraheze, but strange things have happened. [01:23:08] back to work [01:23:49] Well BTS is known for using bots and streaming farms so it's not farfetched that they would ddos something [01:24:51] [1/2] the musical group themselves? or fans. Because those are two very different things. [01:24:51] [2/2] highly doubt a music artists have the time/inclination to muck about with a free wiki farm hosting service. [01:25:06] wait why is cosmos kinda a good skin HELP [01:25:45] The group's label (HYBE) ... Hybe literally bots their streams <:droidcry:1126190447178567681> Jungkook's new song "seven" literally was freefalling off of the spotify charts but on a random wednesday in thailand they jumped all the way up [01:25:56] It's a little fraudulent unlike organic artists like blackpink and seventeen [01:27:13] I'm reasonably sure that was english but I have no idea what any of those are. More musical acts? [01:31:04] Hybe is BTS' label and Jungkook is a member of BTS [01:31:14] Blackpink and seventeen are more successful, pretty, and organic kpop acts [01:32:17] and kpop is a ... musical style. gotcha. TIL. [01:37:09] it's a whole genre and subculture yh [01:37:10] but anyway [01:37:18] before #they mute me for being off topic <:droidcry:1126190447178567681> [02:29:42] this didnt work. [02:41:56] Getting 503s again [02:42:39] [1/4] i'm getting this error when trying to access my wiki: [02:42:39] [2/4] ```Sorry! This site is experiencing technical difficulties.

[02:42:39] [4/4] (Cannot access the database: Cannot access the database: Too many connections (db142))``` [02:45:12] nevermind it's working now [03:01:37] Is there a way to change the size of the wordmark? [03:03:32] or logo as youd call it [03:03:50] its a tad tiny [03:06:52] "a tad" [03:07:03] i think it's a lot more tiny than just a tad [03:25:04] dark mode really saves my eyes [03:25:13] especially when im editing late [03:57:59] If anyone was waiting on a rename, the queue has finally been processed [04:01:57] Bumping this question [04:08:42] If it's a global filter, I'm pretty sure you just need to make an edit or two (or be added to the (auto)confirmed user group). [04:18:39] has there ever been a wiki request that was rejected? [04:23:41] Plenty: [04:56:12] Where do I edit the global filter again? [05:02:39] You don't. In case there was any confusion, byt "an edit or two" I was referring to editing the wiki, not the filter. [05:18:36] morning [05:18:49] what was the case w/ 503, they are gone now? [05:20:38] Latest set is unknown, something with cloud14/db142 though. [05:23:50] outage only lasted a couple minutes - started with a long hang when attempting to submit an edit, then eventually auto-loaded the 503 Miraheze page. [05:47:53] Oh right gotcha [06:09:30] [1/2] quick CSS question: [06:09:30] [2/2] is it possible to implement this using a background gradient? if it is, how would it be done? if it isn't, what's the proper way? [06:13:25] what do you mean exactly by "background gradient" [06:13:39] are you trying to have the image tile or have the color shift [06:14:08] background gradient, as in the CSS linear gradient, conic gradient or radial gradient [06:14:40] i'm trying to reproduce this right arrow using just CSS if possible (without using background-image) [06:15:02] hmmmm [06:15:42] i know you can overlap two or more gradients together using transparency, but can it be done vertically? [06:16:24] the way this looks done is having a vertical "gradient" make the top and bottom stripe, then has it make the arrows [06:16:42] hmm [06:17:25] [1/5] so something like: [06:17:25] [2/5] •top stripe [06:17:26] [3/5] ••yellow, black, angle [06:17:26] [4/5] •bottom stripe [06:17:26] [5/5] ••yellow, black, angle [06:18:12] so i would need to apply the gradients to two different elements - the top stripe and the bottom stripe, correct? [06:18:49] I've not necessarily fiddled with css gradients to know exactly how to make that happen but I know you have the independent parts of striped gradients be solid colors to make stripes and angles to be horizontal and diagonal [06:18:59] I think so [06:19:23] if you look here it seems like theres a line down the middle which implies to me the same thing was done here [06:19:37] actually that's from an image [06:19:51] i'm just trying to reproduce the pattern in a table cell [06:20:09] well i meant like, how they constructed it at well [06:20:27] ah i see [06:21:16] thanks for the insight, i'll try to make some stuff happen [06:22:35] [1/8] basically you'll have [06:22:36] [2/8] ``` [06:22:36] [3/8] ------- [06:22:36] [4/8] yellow \ black \ yellow [06:22:37] [5/8] ------- [06:22:37] [6/8] ------- [06:22:37] [7/8] yellow / black / yellow [06:22:38] [8/8] -------``` [06:23:43] i get the idea, and i would have no problem doing that if the direction change was defined by horizontal position, like in this example [06:24:02] but having a direction change defined by vertical position is something new to me [06:33:38] If someone made art for me and I wanted to upload it into my own wiki [06:33:49] Does this require licensing [06:33:59] Like fair use [06:34:21] i think that depends on the terms of the agreement between you and the artist (though don't quote me on this) [06:42:57] Cheers, but so long as the original artist doesn't complain, I don't have to license it right [06:43:29] Everything is automatically licensed if not given an alternative [06:43:49] Cuz this was all done on a discord convo, just me saying I'd like an icon and they said they're fine with it > made it for me [06:43:53] And I see [06:44:38] default is CC BY SA [06:44:56] Miraheze wikis have the CC BY-SA 4.0 license unless otherwise noted [06:45:32] which means the image can be reposted and edited, as long as the artist and your wiki (as source) are credited [06:46:09] <:ThumbsUp:372938313755262977> [06:46:44] sadly, a lot of people aren't aware of the whole deal w/ licences [06:46:56] reminds me, how do i license a vector image i made based on a copyrighted image [06:46:58] I didn't know either until I was told by a friend lul [06:47:04] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Help:Changing_your_wiki_license [06:47:04] well, im assuming its copyrighted [06:47:08] Heres a good page on it. [06:47:10] Almost risked my wiki before it even started [06:47:29] won't even read the sentence at the very bottom of the page (it's even worse w/ Fandom since 2021) [06:47:30] wdym? [06:47:36] im not sure how i even check that actually [06:48:07] When uploading images, there was a warning message that said something about respecting license rules or the wiki might risk being deleted [06:48:32] does the image exist on Wikipedia in some form? cus they lay out everything per their strict rules [06:48:32] Makes sense yea. [06:48:37] If I wasn't told about licensing I probably may get my wiki contested before I even finished setting it up [06:49:12] its derivative work and frankly no one will notice. Just license as you please. [06:49:31] i see, thanks [06:49:37] Actually speaking of [06:49:45] Is there a way to upload multiple pics at once [06:49:49] Or do you have to do it one by one [06:50:00] [1/2] we had couple of wikis getting shutdown after copyright holder complaints [06:50:00] [2/2] those wikis were given time to delete content or oppose the complaints, but did neither and got shut down [06:50:00] nope (if you were talking to me) [06:50:26] but it's very very rare occurrence [06:51:05] make sure to slap fair use on copyrighted images at least [06:51:33] as for recreation - as long as you state that it's recreation, it must be okay? I can't tell for sure [06:51:48] noted [06:52:07] Ah shit that's tough [06:52:14] Even if they kinda have it coming [06:52:47] licensing is a bit of a nightmare which is why i hold the opinion that you should just do whatever. If someone complaints then you can do something. [06:53:17] I had a friend set up licensing templates for me so I only need to copy and paste a certain line of text [06:53:24] The whole process feels super complex though [06:53:39] sounds unnecessary but have fun [06:53:40] you can choose licence on upload instead of typing [06:53:53] im still not even sure if the game title is copyrighted anymore lol [06:54:06] fair enough [06:54:35] [1/3] templates must be set up on `MediaWiki:Licenses` page [06:54:36] [2/3] like this [06:54:36] [3/3] `template name|option in dropdown` [06:56:07] may i bump a question i asked earlier? [06:56:27] [06:56:28] Yes [06:57:32] [1/2] about this [06:57:32] [2/2] i was thinking if it was possible to specify a to bottom gradient as the main gradient, then somehow use a 45/135deg within the gradients [07:07:46] the default wiki skin applies to everyone but can be overwritten to another skin in your acc/user preferences [07:09:33] you can get the MsUpload extension to do it [07:09:58] Will check it out ty ty [07:11:47] I posted some small use instructions over here https://discord.com/channels/407504499280707585/1171862638142181469/1171868940755017808 [07:18:09] can you modify the upload parameters btw [07:18:26] to have more things automatically added to a file page [07:19:04] beyond license only w/ templates [07:19:18] to be pasted/typed in description [07:20:04] ah, and categories can be added easier if you have HotCat gadged [07:23:09] i think i'm throwing in the towel for that css question [07:23:20] don't think i have any idea how to make that work [07:23:35] I'm sorry but gradient is outside of competence [07:23:54] I found this https://jsfiddle.net/guzt8cu0/ [07:24:05] I'd rather go w/ background/border-image [07:24:18] wait this might help big time [07:24:22] thank you so much [07:49:04] it actually works [07:56:32] nice! [07:59:23] [1/2] Yo [07:59:23] [2/2] Kek straight in with a question... are you able to make like concept fandom-esque wikis? [08:07:04] you mean wikis for subjects that don't technically exist? should be a go i believe [08:08:45] [1/9] also i hate css pt. 2 and should be another quick question [08:08:45] [2/9] ```html [08:08:46] [3/9] {{MaimaiSonglistCategory|{{CustomTextBG|#f2f109|#000000|Initial Release (2/26/2014)}}|bg=repeating-linear-gradient(45deg, #000000 0px, #000000 5px, #b1d606 10px, #b1d606 40px), repeating-linear-gradient(135deg, #000000 0px, #000000 5px, #b1d606 10px, #b1d606 40px)|size=100% 50%|repeat=no-repeat|pos=top left, bottom left}} [08:08:46] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Template:MaimaiSonglistCategory [08:08:46] [4/9] ``` [08:08:46] [5/9] ignoring the category template for a moment, i've sorted that out, here's the custom text bg template: [08:08:47] [6/9] ```html [08:08:47] [7/9] {{{3}}}/span/includeonly [08:08:47] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Template:%7b1 [08:08:47] [8/9] ``` [08:08:47] [9/9] the text is correct and in the correct color, so why is the span bg not applying even with !important? [08:12:11]
