[01:10:18] My wiki suddenly dissapeared? https://qualiaresearch.miraheze.org/ [01:10:51] did it get paused or deleted or something since i havent changed anything there in a month? [01:12:31] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Closed_wikis [01:12:46] @burnydelic try now [01:13:46] Thank you kind sir! ❤️‍🔥 [01:13:56] what happened? [01:14:01] Not sure [01:14:51] I think ManageWiki cache is borked [01:17:15] its miraheze transition time whats not borked [01:19:38] How do I find the localfiles.php if I'm using Miraheze as my host? [01:20:42] You mean LocalSettings.php? [01:20:46] oh yes, sorry [01:20:49] Most settings are already in ManageWiki [01:21:03] oh interesting. i must have missed it, I'll look again, thanks! [01:21:13] Looking for something in particular? [01:21:26] Well I want to change my logo to a custom logo [01:22:20] oh yes so after you upload the logo to your wiki and copy the direct image URL (starting in https://static.miraheze.org), you go to Special:ManageWiki/settings -> Styling -> Logo (and if you're using the default skin, also set Icon) [01:22:54] Oh wow, thanks so much! That's much easier than what I was googling! thanks! [02:14:32] um, no [02:14:48] 😦 [02:17:44] sorry if too direct, but i kinda liked the orange. let the others be hot pink [02:18:02] it’s fine haha [02:18:06] maybe a brighter orange? [02:18:20] yep just bustin chops [02:24:08] Sorry to bother you again. I uploaded my logo to my wiki and copied the direct URL. I clicked on the link you sent, logged in, and went to Special:ManageWiki/settings and then to Styling, but the whole Styling tab is grey including the area for the logo. What does this mean? What should I do? [02:24:34] You clicked the link I sent? [02:24:37] yes [02:24:42] so you went to Miraheze Commons Wiki? [02:24:56] just double checked, yes I did [02:25:06] That's not your wiki, is it? \:P [02:25:15] Try going to `Special:ManageWiki/settings` on your wiki [02:25:28] oh on my wiki? ok [02:30:28] it worked! Thank you so much! [02:30:41] Glad to hear that worked! [03:31:49] You’ll be amazed how this works perfectly, and thank me later how to earn up to $40k ask me how @management_8111 [05:32:48] the small polandball wiki main page is not working can you fix it? [05:34:10] the whole wiki is not working [05:34:15] please help [05:39:17] what exactly isn't working [05:39:27] we aren't telepaths [05:39:47] also link/URL of the wiki would be very helpful [05:44:35] i cant send the link [05:44:37] but it says [05:44:45] This wiki is temporarily unavailable [05:44:47] say subdomain [05:44:51] subdomain [05:44:57] What's before `miraheze.org` [05:44:59] lmao [05:46:26] small(dot)polandballwiki(dot)com [05:48:36] small.polandballwiki.com [05:49:02] You need to /auth to post links [05:50:35] Unknown database 'polcomwiki' (db131) -> polcom.miraheze.org not found [05:50:57] could be deleted? [05:52:05] from another wiki ballmedia has a link and the link to the creator can go to the wiki [05:52:30] any link can end up in 404 [05:53:10] can you confirm if the wiki was deleted? [05:53:24] https://small.polandballwiki.com/wiki/Brzeg_Powiat [05:53:32] this is a random page from it [05:53:36] it leads to it [05:53:43] only the main page is broken [05:53:47] oh, it got deleted? [05:53:51] that's quite bad [05:54:10] how can only main page get db error huh [05:54:15] idk [05:54:28] can it be fixed [05:55:18] What the heck, that by all means should be impossible for only the main page to give a DB error... [05:55:18] I'm leaving this to Agent, it's far outside of my expertise [05:55:36] Especially a DB error that says it is not found. [05:55:50] maybe something to do w/ custom domain [05:55:58] Only thing I can think of is caching. [05:56:30] how to do that [05:56:59] It's because polcomwiki served as the central image repository for a whole group of wikis [05:57:05] It does seem to be deleted though [05:57:09] now that it's been deleted, a bunch of wikis images have been wiped out [05:57:10] can it be archived [05:57:44] Oh I just realized polcomwiki is not the wiki I was on lol [05:57:59] reverse deletion/changes? [05:58:36] Scripts are supposed to wipe foreign instances when a wiki is deleted. Also there will be no backup of images if the images were actually deleted. [05:58:41] can only the wiki creator do that [05:58:56] because i only made a lot a pages for it not made it [05:59:04] and i like this wiki [06:01:46] We can fix that wiki but images from polcomwiki are likely gone. [06:01:52] ok [06:02:05] please fix atleast that one [06:03:33] I thought images stay like db's untill drop [06:03:49] no, images are deleted by the script [06:04:55] i need to go [06:05:02] please have it fixed by the morning [06:05:45] lol [06:10:14] This might not be the worst idea. [06:11:16] Could have a seperate script to do it. Deletions would process a lot faster also... but I believe DBs have been dropped now as well... [06:12:14] so the main page counter should change to 5k soon? [06:13:10] It updated now. [06:13:15] I purged cache [07:46:45] Each say that they couldn't be read [07:54:06] DM me the wiki and I'll look later [07:55:30] Okay something is broken with search console [07:55:38] Or that's not given domain wide [07:55:41] Still DM me [08:00:15] 8f 8-=km;\ [08:00:16] ]\]"? [08:00:43] sorry, I just cleaning my laptop keyboard [09:25:36] [1/2] I still have a support question open about a LUA problem. [09:25:37] [2/2] I hope someone has the time to take a look. [09:26:04] discord.com/channels/407504499280707585/1195693908747878420 [09:41:38] at this rate we'll need a LUA support volunteer lol [09:42:38] have you tried to ask in MediaWiki discord? [10:30:20] No I haven't, Good Idea. But do they want to bother with a Farm Wiki? [10:31:28] they can check Lua things [10:31:43] it's MediaWiki thing after all [10:31:55] True [10:34:51] Have a link? As The search for MediaWiki gave 0 resultes 😮 [10:56:26] https://discord.com/channels/407504499280707585/1001373934874284112/1001376846216175657 [14:52:03] friendly reminder there's currently [[Requests for Comment/Meta translation reform]] [14:52:03] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Requests_for_Comment/Meta_translation_reform [14:52:04]

[14:59:01] :ThinkerMH: [14:59:10] Gonna have to think bout this [16:08:06] there is no rotten websites wiki on Miraheze? [16:09:20] encountered another person w/ "reception wikis = miraheze" mindset [16:09:51] Hm? [16:14:35] Not these days, no. [16:15:02] But used to cause a lot of controversy when it did exist. [16:15:43] Totally tarnished whatever reputation we had. [16:17:10] No, but there's one on ShoutWiki [16:19:59] yeah ok, the person apparently slagged off Miraheze because copies of the wiki exist in Google Cache [16:21:11] I won't argue w/ them further but lol [16:23:53] <_______________________________d> curious if it would be ok to have a donate button on my wiki if it led back to the metawiki donation page [16:24:47] <_______________________________d> also, we're over 2 weeks into 2024 and there have been no major incidents yet [16:26:13] You mean like the one on the global notice? [16:26:21] <_______________________________d, replying to pixldev> no like, something on the side [16:26:46] <_______________________________d> [1/2] like here [16:26:46] <_______________________________d> [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1196490671327031437/image.png?ex=65b7d1c5&is=65a55cc5&hm=4fc28a53a069a0016fc2cd12ad9703f1f809a0fb0fd081e39e401bd5ab192cb3& [16:27:30] Don’t see why no [16:29:48] That would be fine [16:35:24] Do Stewards count as global interwiki admins? [16:36:13] For context I'm updating https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Interwiki_administrators/Chart [16:36:46] They are but I wouldn't include them there [16:37:08] I guess I'll leave it as is then [16:49:25] Do we not have a single interwiki admin....? [16:49:39] I wrote that up yesterday but I guess I didn't fully realize it [16:50:06] yep, no admins [16:50:46] Well it seems like we're at a nice little crossroads [16:51:10] not that it'll matter soon [16:51:17] why? [16:51:39] abolishment [16:51:49] i assume [16:53:03] Abolishment? [16:53:29] abolishment? [16:54:21] I am speculating here [16:54:26] ask Agent [16:54:46] but speculating is way more fun [16:54:46] Yes do wait for @agentisai to speak [16:55:20] Yeah - I don't know what Agent meant, I was just throwing a guess out there based on what was said [16:55:43] My words here are not to be taken with any grain of salt [16:56:11] Stewards and GS can technically handle IW requests, but long term it'd be better to eliminate global role and devolve to local bureaucrats [16:56:50] As opposed as I was in the past to doing so, WT proved out that this can be done safely. [16:57:44] agree 100% here, I don't believe we had a single issue with IW on WT [17:00:55] the tables won't reset, won't they? [17:01:11] and Wikimedia prefixes will stay default? [17:01:13] Doubt [17:01:37] It’s likely just a retirement of the global role and an additional right to the local crat group [17:01:37] No, shuffling permissions around doesn't touch the IW tables [17:02:09] Assuming nothing catastrophically breaks ofc [17:07:59] logged out again 😩 [17:09:29] also why [[Special:RequestWikiQueue/39038]] was declined? :squint: [17:09:29] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Special:RequestWikiQueue/39038 [17:09:30]

[17:55:53] File server issues ? [17:56:53] wdym? [17:58:57] Orange_Star: seems like swift issues [17:59:37] swift needs to swiftly get better [18:00:55] Swift has fell out with us [18:01:15] back in my day we'd just store uploaded files on the local filesystem, this fancy tech can't be trusted, just like DNS smh :/ [18:01:45] Orange_Star: gluster & lizard were fun [18:02:51] fax [18:02:58] even that's too fancy. Just have one mw server and store all the images on the local filesystem, ez pz lmn sqzy [18:03:11] ikr [18:03:22] like why use so many servers [18:03:33] too many points of failure [18:03:52] just have a single box [18:03:53] We could just send it via carrier pigeon [18:04:13] All you need is Maria PHP and apache [18:04:21] bam [18:04:38] Maria?!!!! Local SQLite my brother >:) [18:04:49] Amen [18:05:02] (that is actually what I have the most experienced with) [18:05:12] The rest of SRE is now aware and looking [18:05:23] even thats too fancy though [18:05:36] swiftac died again [18:05:37] save it all to a single .json [18:05:37] nice [18:05:45] slap it awake [18:06:11] pixldeb: OMG, have you patented this revolutionary tech?

I suggest a discord moderator/admin post something to #announcements [18:26:39] is it just me or images aren't loading at all on miraheze rn [18:27:05] #announcements [18:28:29] announcement has been up since :15 [18:28:32] ahh okay [18:39:07] I feel like this was obvious but @miraheze/NDKilla, it is @miraheze/UserName like everyone else :p [18:39:34] I feel bad for losing macfan’s group contact request like 5 times now and still can’t find the link :ThinkerMH: [18:39:34] [1/3] a image of mine doesn't load and says: [18:39:34] [2/3] Unauthorized [18:39:34] [3/3] This server could not verify that you are authorized to access the document you requested.
