[00:19:15] [1/8] btw if you currently need the admin links that were in the sidebar, you can add a temporary replacement (till it gets fixed) in the MediaWiki:Sidebar page [00:19:16] [2/8] `* Temp Admin [00:19:16] [3/8]  Special:ManageWiki/core|Manage this wiki's core settings [00:19:16] [4/8]  Special:ManageWiki/extensions|Manage this wiki's extensions [00:19:16] [5/8]  Special:ManageWiki/namespaces|Manage this wiki's namespaces [00:19:17] [6/8]  Special:ManageWiki/permissions|Manage this wiki's permissions [00:19:17] [7/8]  Special:ManageWiki/settings|Manage this wiki's additional settings [00:19:17] [8/8]  Special:DataDump|Manage/Download this wiki's dump` [00:54:26] how can i delete one of my wiki's? i've already closed it [00:54:58] if it’s closed, it’ll be deleted within….60 days (i think?) automatically [00:55:06] and then the DB will be dropped when SRE runs the script [00:55:13] oh okayy [00:59:59] If you'd like a faster deletion, filing, a request on the stewards notice board is the way to go [01:20:00] Hopefully when/if Option C wins tomorrow we'll start getting wiki deletion requests fulfilled! [01:21:55] They've already been done by me [01:22:11] but regardless, it won't be an instant transfer [01:23:26] And what is the score right now? Someone just "Supported" Option d. [01:27:09] Option C to become the winner [01:29:09] OK good. I wonder if wiki creation will be on pause while the merger happens. And are you sure it's been coordinated such that is goes well? [01:32:23] It's a process with a lot of moving parts, but parties involved with the technical and legal parts of the merger have been in close contact. [01:32:41] OK then! [01:32:45] More to come on that when there's more to say, hopefully soon. 🙂 [01:33:44] And what about things such as wiki creation being put on pause? It would be stressful dealing with all of that at once, wouldn't it? If I ran a website and was getting requests while making a major change, it would be very stressful. [01:41:31] I can't speak for the technical team, but a brief pause seems plausible. Rest assured, any planned maintenance when things start moving will be announced by the SRE team, with appropriate coordination with wiki creator team members. [02:00:11] I'm not a guru, but I don't anticipate any issues with wiki creations except maybe for a short time during a physical movement between servers, the same as any impact on existing wikis. [02:00:49] like NotAracham said [02:03:53] frankly, this is the least stressful aspect of the process (unless you're requesting a wiki, obviously). in any case, it will be managed. I have not doubt there will be intense effort to minimize impact on the community, both current and future. [02:04:52] As a former WC myself, can confirm. [03:40:42] A. -54, B. +36, C. +82, D. -66 [03:41:56] C will for sure win unless it suddenly gets 47 oppose or B gets 47 support in the next 1.5 hours [03:42:45] if you remove conditional supports, the numbers would shift quite a lot too [03:46:47] [1/2] I'll teach 10people to earn $50k within a week but you will pay me 10% of your profit when you receive it. Note only interested people should apply, send me a DM or drop a message let's get started by asking (HOW) via WhatsApp [03:46:48] [2/2] +1 (707) 831-7330 [03:48:07] @Discord Moderators ^^ [03:48:30] They already handled it [04:50:54] RfC technically closes in a few minutes, but I won't be able to close it tonight. [04:51:02] Happy new year folks! [04:52:05] Happy New Year! [05:00:21] Vote ended? [05:00:33] It has [05:01:28] <.labster> 🎉 [05:02:10] <.labster> Shall I mark it as closed @orduin ? [05:02:16] Happy new years! [05:05:02] happy new years for est [05:05:11] my one year miraheze anniversary is next february [05:09:46] Votes now suspended on RfC, awaiting Void's closure/ [05:10:33] @orduin When you do close, just delete/replace my note with whatever you write. Final count of votes is on there. [05:12:41] Happy New Year everyone! [05:13:16] Happy 2024! [05:14:36] happy new year! [05:19:35] Is the RfC meant to be closed? I’m under the impression it has to be closed by a Steward, though voting is suspended. [05:19:55] It should be marked as open until a steward officially closes, correct? Asking for a friend 😂. [05:23:58] <.labster> It's up the the Steward to declare a winner. [05:24:09] I got less than a hour [05:24:37] Than it will be the new year [05:24:54] Happy New Year 🎉 [05:25:27] <.labster, replying to bwm0> Since voting was slowing down a lot, I can't see much point in keeping it open. [05:25:39] <.labster> But yes, process is important. [05:25:57] 💯 agree with you here, just want to make sure the process is respected. [05:27:00] I’m not on wiki, if someone could revert to state the RfC as open, would be good. Minor detail. [05:27:22] Don’t erase the message or anything, just flip the banner at the very top from closed to open. If not happy to do. [06:06:51] It's been 2024 for me for 6 minutes now [06:32:49] <.labster> It's weird talking to people in the future [06:33:03] lol [06:34:27] <.labster> Is life better in 2024? Do you have flying cars yet? We're still wondering back in 2023. [06:43:22] Can confirm, flying cars are a thing. [06:43:27] The iCar is pretty crazy. [06:43:44] lol [06:50:36] It’s 2024 for me now [07:09:18] Happy new year! [07:09:34] I'm not sure about my task on the phabricator [07:10:05] I only wanted to use file dump [10:15:17] The fight against the langoliers has concluded, and I am pleased to report that I am fit and ready for duty in 2024. Looking forward to making this one hell of a year for wiki-hosting. [10:19:36] You don't need to importdump images if you have a Windows PC (or somehow you can manage to run Wine with that) [10:20:20] Use this to batch upload images: https://github.com/Aspallar/Wiki-Up [11:17:41] It looks like Option C won! I just had to check, especially given the fact I had a bad dream last night that there was some issue with the RfC. [11:18:50] Still waiting for a steward but option C was highest vote [11:18:59] Then the boards will come to a legal agreement [11:27:17] Lmao [11:56:48] Does anyone know how option c will actually effect the site? Are we going to have to move over content to another site, will things continue as normal with new management? ETC [11:57:30] They'll be server moves eventually [11:57:47] I expect periods where there's read only / no account creation / no wiki creation [11:57:56] It should be fairly short though [12:41:52] As I understand it, MH wiki owners won't need to do anything. Server moves will be transparent to them except for any read only periods needed. [12:43:08] If you only have a Miraheze wiki and account, I expect no action expect a bit of limited availability (read only / no account creation) [12:43:28] If you have both a Miraheze and WikiTide wiki with the same name, I'm not sure yet what will happen [12:44:00] If you have both a Miraheze account and WikiTide account of the same username, i expect you'll need to take some action to merge the accounts back together. [12:44:13] Please don't do anything until official advice is given though [12:46:22] I expect the merger to take a couple months I guess? I still have an unresolved wiki deletion request. [12:46:45] I'm not sure on timescales [12:47:17] It will depend how long legal agreements, data transfer assessments and how long we keep servers in Stevenage [12:47:39] I don't think it's too useful trying to speculate about all these things [12:47:43] I'm not sure what our contractual obligations are with existing providers that both orgs use [12:47:50] I've seen a lot of theories and things being said that aren't exactly accurate [12:48:07] What is Stevenage? Is it the data center or its location? [12:48:17] A city [12:48:27] It's where we have our data centre [12:48:35] I've just been through it on the train [12:48:44] But indeed, there's no need to worry and nothing will be rushed or done in an unexpected or unannounced way [12:48:56] That’s what I thought. I’m guessing servers might move to the cloud? [12:49:14] WikiTide has existing infra [12:49:19] Woah! thanks max! [12:49:27] I'm not sure on spec [13:06:13] yep [14:32:56] [1/3] https://trollpasta.com/wiki/File:Tv.png [14:32:57] [2/3] https://trollpasta.com/wiki/File:Kat.jpg [14:32:57] [3/3] https://trollpasta.com/wiki/File:B.png [14:33:10] there's no way to remove the Images category from these 3 images [17:22:25] <.tounae_official> how to do if I have same username in Wikitide? [17:22:28] <.tounae_official> Can I manually delete my Wikitide account in advance? [17:23:45] Please do not do anything [17:24:07] If action is needed, users will be contacted individually via email and mass message [17:24:19] <.tounae_official> ok I got it [18:20:28] There are two open requests for the Wiki Creator role: https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Meta:Requests_for_permissions#Buehl106_(Wiki_creator) and https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Meta:Requests_for_permissions#Waki285_(Wiki_creator). [18:23:21] [1/2] so the rfc is closed [18:23:21] [2/2] what happens now [18:24:37] Please read the messages above (which should really be compiled together by someone who was involved in its drafting process, IMO). [18:24:52] It is technically not closed yet but option C is the clear winner [18:25:44] The BoD of Miraheze Ltd and WikiTide Inc now need to handle the legal stuff. [18:26:21] (As well as the technical ones) [18:33:08] [1/2] Quick Question. [18:33:08] [2/2] Is there a functionality available for using
