[01:05:58] 🛏️ + 💤 = 🛌 [01:12:29] <1soul_fire1> Does anyone know how to add another page to a wiki? [01:14:02] gn! [02:24:18] @bluemoon0332, I don't think it's happening every time but a new account attachment definately kicked me out just now. dunno if you still want reports on these [04:06:44] <1soul_fire1> How do I add a video to my wiki? [04:33:15] [1/2] extension TimedMediaHandler for uploads [04:33:15] [2/2] extensions Youtube or EmbedVideo for various embeds [04:33:39] see Manage this wiki's extensions admin menu in sidebar [04:34:45] to upload video use Special:Upload [04:35:00] add such video into a page like an image [04:35:17] read extensions' documentations [04:56:51] how often are we changing the username :p [04:57:08] raidarr to raidette to rutabaga to raidarr loobrok [04:57:17] and probably another one I'm missing [05:13:34] <.labster> New username every day [05:14:43] <.labster> Does anyone have experience on Wikidata? I keep triggering abuse filters, I can't even find the abuse filter that's being referenced. [05:24:00] Nope [05:34:03] hi, is there any way to force a wiki to auto-create category pages? whether in bulk or whenever i tag a category on a page [05:34:49] What do you mean? [05:34:55] Create the page itself or add a page to a category? [05:35:13] creating pages of categories after creating such link? [05:35:23] [1/2] the page itself for the category, like turning these redlinks into bluelinks ^^ [05:35:23] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1217345242332790834/image.png?ex=6603b01a&is=65f13b1a&hm=eb3d622f3e10ea55670b2904deee313ddf9c1f1941f490f829805cde9abdbe8f& [05:35:28] instead of having to do it manually [05:35:45] there's extension for that but it restricted, I can't memorize why lol [05:35:51] i imagine its a mess on public wikis LOL [05:36:00] Which ext btw [05:36:04] since this is a private wiki im the only one who'll ever add categories to anything [05:37:11] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1217345695980195971/IMG_20240313_083701.jpg?ex=6603b087&is=65f13b87&hm=fddb91357f54049c614d24b9f936d4f5b27ee57f3c7d11ebe582366767d60b74& [05:37:16] There's AutoWikiBrowser (I think?) but not my area of expertise [05:37:22] I can look why [05:37:56] if it gets unrestricted or theres any way for me to enable it please ping me! thatd be super duper helpful [05:38:00] if all else fails i do have AWB thankfully [05:39:00] huh I have no idea.....does a @Site Reliability Engineers know? [05:39:07] you can request stewards for open restricted setting/extension but it's dependent on why it's restricted and how your wiki behaves [05:39:12] <.labster> We can enable restricted extensions on request [05:39:19] A steward/SRE can enable, you can visit [[Steward requests]] to file a request [05:39:19] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Steward_requests [05:39:20]

[05:39:24] thanks! ill put a request in [05:39:39] is it under restricted settings changes or misc? [05:39:52] 🙂 No worries. Just make sure you explain why clearly so the responding user knows why you're requesting it. [05:39:52] <.labster> My guess is that it can chaos with a simple misclick so we restrict it [05:40:01] Some users just leave it blank which of course isn't good. [05:40:13] haha yeah i totally understand why its restricted, it would NOT want this enabled on the public wiki i crat for [05:40:17] That probably sounds right tbh [05:41:29] categories on wikis I've migrated were sooo messed up, I always have to give like 1-3 days to just go through categories [05:41:56] this btw [05:42:06] i wish there was a way to disable the 'this page is blank are u sure you want to publish!!!!' thing just like in general [05:42:20] even the ones I fully admined and seemed alright - I still had to re organise, 5 years later [05:46:23] oh yeah thanks for all the help with getting userboxes working, my wikis userbase has been having a lot of fun with it. LOL [05:47:10] a lot of them do miss the social aspects of FANDOM so ive been trying to bring some of them back [05:56:56] I keep getting signed out of the website even after clearing all of my cache on mobile [05:57:06] Is this a bug or something [05:58:47] I have been signed in for a month, but thats because I haven't visited a new wiki while logged in with that account, when I visit a new wiki I always get logged out. [06:02:06] I haven't really visited any new wiki so far. Just the same ones I always visit [06:06:03] hmm [06:10:38] i know apple tends to block cookies on a lot of sites by default [06:27:29] how can i add users to a custom group i made? [06:27:57] o wait i see [06:35:13] tbh I believe it's fine that they can use the old wiki for discussions while use the new one for the most up to date info [06:35:14] ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ [06:35:49] i mean i dont wanna give fandom a single cent but we cant delete itanyway so :P [06:36:08] but the actual current wiki editors dont wanna use fandom, its just some very young users who still use it. two seperate groups of people [06:36:57] yeah [06:37:26] and I guess it's a bit understandable for the younger users who wanna discuss the game [06:38:03] speaking from experience, some of the most active gaming wikis, plenty of which being roblox ones, have active communities in discussions, where many of the members never edit the wiki itself [06:38:08] so basically, kinda 2 different audiences [06:38:11] ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ [06:39:16] yeah haha [06:39:29] which i dont mind leaving fandom for them to discuss, even though we have an official discord, i suspect some of them are under 13 [06:40:07] kids are kids [06:40:12] which is totally alright [06:40:16] yeah [06:40:26] i was a kid on the internet once too LOL back in the forum days ... before COPPA was even a concept [06:40:39] as long as theyre safe and not slinging slurs at eachother im like indifferent [06:40:46] yeah agreed [06:41:06] I don't blame them or anybody for them being kids and enjoying the discussion of phighting or roblox games in general [06:41:16] ..though ic urrently have a user who keeps making an OC article in mainspace and ive already moved it once and they told me they moved it back bc the url was ugly and i had ot very gently tell them if you do this again i WILL remove your createpage perms [06:41:23] yeah absolutely, it is a kids game after all LOL [06:42:15] im like the single oldest active member of the community which is funny. im only 25. but thats literally ancient to these guys [06:44:03] Please do remember that we don't allow under 13s and you are required to notify us of accounts being operated by under 13s where credible information exists to indicate they are. [06:44:15] oh yes absolutely, dw as far as i know none of our miraheze users are underage [06:44:26] [1/2] I'm gonna turn 21 in a few days [06:44:26] [2/2] and man, looking at communities like some roblox games, I feel old too [06:44:27] i used to work in COPPA so i completely get it [06:44:35] as in, had to enforce it [06:44:59] Data laws are fun to deal with [06:45:13] Even more fun if you're my bank who refuses to follow them [06:45:15] yeahhh. the thing that gets me about COPPA is it has little to do w actual child safety, its just a data protection law [06:45:27] what I mean is that since you see 12 and 13 year olds discussing particular roblox games, it makes u feel old tbh [06:46:52] [1/2] i used to be the lead mod of a large discord for a game aimed at teenagers and we had underage users frequently, and other users would DOGPILE them and i basically had to drag them out, talk to them gently and ban them. i wasnt comfortable reporting to discord for personal reasons but i would always tell them not to tell their age to anyone else who asks, purely for their safe [06:46:52] [2/2] ty [06:47:12] they could be using discord to talk to family or friends or to receive support in bad situations, i dont know, all i knew is they couldnt be in the server i ran bc it was attached to a coppa compliant company [06:47:29] man i miss the tween web [06:48:54] yeahh it gets wild sometimes but i have very childish interests anyway (autism ftw) so ive gotten kind of use to it these days, i tend to try and take on a role model sort of position in those communities [06:49:07] yeah [06:52:45] [1/2] this does no good honestly [06:52:45] [2/2] the fandom ptw is now uncontrollable toxic mess, in both discussions and articles while efforts of actually responsible editors aren't noticeable thanks to seo [06:53:23] we dont encourage using the fandom at All but the people who use fandom genuinely see it as a social media and dont comprehend what miraheze Is [06:53:52] like, on our fandom wiki, people post all their artwork and look for people to play with and etc completely detached from the wiki itself. its odd but not smth miraheze can replicate [06:54:04] exactly [06:54:19] same shit, they don't care about the wiki itself [06:54:29] nods yeah [06:54:37] I see [06:54:53] you cant close discussions or delete or purge the wiki in any way so we just leave it and use the games official channels to push towards the new one [06:54:53] and using fandom as poor man's social media still hurts the new wiki [06:58:31] [1/2] any wiki needs editors to have content first and foremost [06:58:31] [2/2] a wiki can be a super niche personal project or very sought after encyclopedia for a lot of people [06:59:18] but low quality or very poor on amount of pages isn't needed by no one [07:00:06] discussions create a fake activity, an illusion growth of the wiki [07:00:37] its weird bc i felt amino filled in this very specific social media niche but fsr its lost popularity [07:07:14] discord is a social platform, is much easier to use for that AND is easier to moderate, and so far interactions in new ptw discord are so much more chill than what they had on discussions before - and especially after, migration [08:28:44] how to increase the infobox width? [08:28:46] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1217388878340558858/image.png?ex=6603d8be&is=65f163be&hm=fdb7f98312f22ce0562ef17c19240aacaa7127aa36ed283309f675b1bdc6945d& [09:22:38] I edit every now and then, but never had an abuse filter blocking me. [09:23:41] @theoneandonlylegroom can you help him/her out? [09:24:58] <.labster> All I was trying to do was update the URL for issue-tracker.miraheze and it blocked me. Apparently I'm hitting "Operator873's filter" which I can't find on AbuseFilter, so it's like??? What a dumb piece of software. [09:31:16] Good morning everyone. (╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻ [09:32:12] On Miraheze's page? [09:32:21] <.labster> yep [09:33:39] <.labster> I'll probably just give up on editing Wikidata, they seem like they don't want contributors.

[09:37:24] I had no issues by the way [09:39:17] [1/3] Fandom wiki moved to Miraheze (Q113930396) [09:39:17] [2/3] Fandom wiki which has been moved to the Miraheze wiki hosting website [09:39:17] [3/3] ↑ ↑ ↑ ↑ ↑ We like that 😄 [09:42:53] https://status.miraheze.wiki/?locale=da is wrong. → https://mirahezestatus.net/?locale=da [09:43:22] Don't think .wiki even exists?

[09:45:34] 😄 [09:45:40] https://www.wikidata.org/w/index.php?title=Special:AbuseLog&wpSearchTitle=Q42671570 [09:48:56] new editor changing statement [09:48:59] <.labster> New editor, my WMF account is older than Miraheze [09:49:14] You have 8 edits on Wikidata [09:49:39] On each new Wiki, you're a new editor 😄 [09:49:56] <.labster> Yes, because I'm not allowed to make edits lol [09:50:01] 😄 [09:50:18] Well I just added it to the statement [09:50:24] They both work [09:53:38] [1/2] Agent also catched this filter lol [09:53:38] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1217410232884396052/image.png?ex=6603eca1&is=65f177a1&hm=dea45f3b1ac6dac4f90332124d0a28765be35b41b8d7cd45bdab38bb16e8875b& [09:54:05] LOL [09:54:27] Yeah I have over 30.000 edits. I don't get filters anymore [09:57:34] <.labster> Well, I'm blocked by a private global filter. [09:57:44] <.labster> Can you just give me the password to your account then? [10:02:26] bruh [10:05:44] is there a css framework that allows styling vector akin to some wiki.gg wikis and wikis like https://voidstranger.miraheze.org and https://zeroranger.miraheze.org [10:06:24] or even rain world or pizza tower wikis [10:09:21] wdym by framework? [10:10:06] like a list of selectors [10:10:33] and from there, u can change colors and bg images and stuff like that [10:10:38] [1/2] ah, no [10:10:38] [2/2] you either poke around by yourself or take bits from other wikis' CSS [10:10:52] while changing colors etc [10:11:01] ah [10:11:02] <.labster> There are Skins which change the whole look of wikis [10:11:15] yeah I know [10:11:36] it's always was like that, even when Wikia was more customizable [10:11:46] ik [10:12:01] <.labster> some skins like Citizen let you set a few CSS variables to change the look. [10:12:14] I was given by someone on wiki.gg a snippet to make Vector mobile friendly [10:12:38] after my complaints of lack of out of box mobile compatibility lol [10:13:17] also Vector on wiki.gg is in uh [10:13:28] "mobile adaptivity" mode by default [10:13:33] it's bad lol [10:14:28] and it's a user preference setting [10:16:00] [1/2] Citizen, Cosmos [10:16:00] [2/2] Timeless has background image setting at max iirc [10:16:21] the Vector imitation layout on Timeless is CSS hack [10:17:50] I wish to move page tools part into "More" button like Vector has it, but it's more confusing than I thought [10:18:08] https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q124831077 [10:21:06] Added my own page 😉 [11:22:14] [1/2] try to give bigger width to `.p-data-label` class in CSS [11:22:14] [2/2] [11:25:54] i got auto create cat pages enabled and its a lifesaver, ty guys (namely reception123) for the super speedy respond 🙏 [11:26:00] you guys have been on the ball lately [11:26:58] Got it, thank you. [11:28:34] Is there a way to make css changes apply to specific template? [11:29:17] [1/2] [[mw:Extension:TemplateStyles]] [11:29:17] https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:TemplateStyles [11:29:18] [2/2] very handy [11:29:19]

[11:36:21] this one might stick a bit tbh [11:36:57] https://tenor.com/view/schitts-creek-david-rose-unlikely-probably-not-yeah-no-gif-19728909 [11:37:13] the very first one was a joke, the next one someone just did, the one after I just continued that spirit and this very last one was word of lab himself [11:37:22] so you see I totally deflect responsibility on labster [11:39:03] @laionpuvan so what is an anti-VSBW wiki exactly [13:35:07] I would like to see the [[mw:Extension:Variables]] extension enabled for the Meta wiki, making it easier to highlight pages with unaddressed requests on the [[Template:Requests_dashboard]] and to show the total number of unaddressed requests.

[1/2] [13:35:08]

[2/2] [13:35:11] Any thoughts? [13:42:13] i just found out that a RfC proposed roblox game wikis were banned, thank goodness it didnt go thru since phightingwiki is for a roblox game, LOL [13:42:25] shame i didnt get to comment on it [13:44:34] oh, when was that one [13:46:03] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Requests_for_Comment/Content_and_Dormancy_Policies#Proposal_1.5:_Approve_topic_bans [13:46:12] looks like it was unanimously not supported [13:47:26] oh yeah those proposals were dead in the water [13:47:48] never stood a chance tbqh [13:48:11] wiki.gg banned roblox game wikis iirc so i wouldnt be surprised [13:48:28] well they tend to be much more restrictive in what they go for anyway [13:48:42]
