[00:02:52] ah, will it not be the link itself? [00:03:28] For database no [00:10:33] Alright, returned from the void. Let's see what I missed in regards to xlation [00:17:47] [1/2] okay, i think i understand what i need to do to get the results intended? which is pointing the nameservers to miraheze; what i dont know is if I should do the process shown in the [instructional video]() of the provider im using (namecheap) or, if miraheze is already registered as the video said, i can do the custom dns instead; the di [00:17:47] [2/2] fference being that the former involves me needing to make another purchase of a hosting provider [00:27:48] You shouldn’t need to pay anything else [00:30:01] oh! gotcha [00:35:20] RequestSSL request submitted \:DD thank you everyone [00:43:17] Course [01:23:44] is there a way to review the request's status? there was a pop-up but i couldnt save the link unfortunately [01:24:02] this embed really confused me, before reading the article i thought it was a screenshot of miraheze meta or something and i got really concerned at the implication that miraheze had some kind of subscription model lol [01:28:30] I wonder how many strongest opposes that would get if it was proposed lol [01:29:11] would be funny [01:31:17] April fools joke material xD [01:31:36] true!! [01:36:32] I’m excited for next year ahahaha [01:37:35] I have a chip to cache in [02:21:12] gah im so excited to get into creating a wiki again [02:21:41] literally shaking excited to get my wiki approved [02:21:58] im really glad i found rhis site [02:22:09] means i don't have to use fandom [02:23:37] Just need to be patient. We have a backlog of about 4 days [02:27:32] Robert [02:27:40] What happened to sleep [02:28:38] I put a link on my userpage to the bot that keeps track of the backlog for my own reference :D [02:29:10] alot of wiki requests are coming in so it makes sense [02:33:26] You can also put {{User:Waki285-Bot/RWQ backlog}} on your page. You'll instantly see a box (like userbox) on it showing it. Don't need to click the link. [02:33:26] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/User:Template:Waki285-Bot/RWQ_backlog [02:33:27] [02:33:48] 5 day backlog is nice [02:33:50] Can't sleep. Tried [02:34:12] he did [02:34:14] Current backlog (oldest unhandled request) in request wiki queue is about 5 days 1 hour (143 requests). [02:34:17] i think [02:34:19] Oh good idea I hadn't even considered that [02:34:23] nvm! [02:34:40] i used a wikilink, not a transclusion [02:39:18] ```{{User:Waki285-Bot/RWQ backlog}}``` not ```{{User:Waki285-Bot/RWQ backlog/backlog}}``` [02:39:18] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/User:Template:Waki285-Bot/RWQ_backlog [02:39:44] Works also, just so dull 😄 [02:40:17] [1/2] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/User:Rodejong [02:40:17] [2/2] See on the right side [02:42:18] good for inline [02:42:29] true [02:42:45] I don't like inline. I want flashing [02:42:55] another NWT spotting [02:42:55] 😄 [02:43:05] NWT? [02:43:15] oops [02:43:18] New World Translation [02:44:18] Bottom right corner [02:45:19] I have that almost everywhere 😄 [02:46:39] I'm off. Trying again to get some sleep (3.46 am now [03:01:59] oh sweet, just got the ten edits notification [03:02:49] I'll be autoconfirmed in a couple days [03:04:32] Reminds me of me getting AC on enwiki [03:05:17] I didn't make an account to edit on enwiki at first so i got autoconfirmed immediately after my 10th edit [03:05:36] it didn't feel deserved because it was mostly just me editing my user page lol [03:05:43] Fair [03:05:54] A lot(comparitively) of my edits are to my js page [03:06:21] https://xtools.wmcloud.org/ec/en.wikipedia.org/PixDeVl [03:07:19] I made an account a while before but it was on WM Meta. not sure if it attached to enwiki or not [03:07:43] some of my earliest edits were stuff like adding {{pastmeetup}} [03:07:43] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Template:pastmeetup [03:07:44] [03:07:51] hush you two [03:08:15] me reaching 100 edits because of css [03:08:21] these says its a lot of template talk [03:08:31] me in nyctopedia [03:09:05] why is there a forum namespace [03:09:07] how to delete [03:09:30] from [[WP:DYKN]] [03:09:30] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/WP:DYKN [03:09:30] [03:09:32] idk [03:09:46] Special:ManageWiki/namespaces [03:10:02] I have 250 edits on enwiki and 58 of them are just User:Theooolone lol [03:10:08] lol [03:10:09] i feel bad [03:10:12] 110ish for me [03:10:22] I'll be honest [03:10:36] I've spent more time talking to Wikipedians in person then on wiki [03:11:51] never met anyone who edits wikipedia irl [03:12:16] Tuesday marks my 20 year anniversary of registering my Wikipedia account [03:12:46] I forget how old wikipedia is [03:13:07] January 15, 2025 it will turn 24 years old [03:13:17] Wikipedia is a zoomer [03:13:19] ^ this person served on the board of a meetup chapter haha [03:13:30] :nook_wave: [03:13:48] first event was Wikipedia Day 24 in NYC [03:13:50] blast [03:13:59] the cake was awesome(thanks Molly!) [03:14:18] James when are you heading back to New York and popping by aye? /lh [03:22:54] open ended question for y'all: what's your favourite and least favourite wiki? (that you're unaffiliated with, no conflict of interest allowed!) [03:25:43] on second thought asking for peoples least favourite wiki probably isn't too good of a thing to do [03:27:31] define affiliated [03:28:19] have made major contributions to or interacted with its community i suppose [03:30:00] mmmmmmmmmmmm [03:30:15] Pizza Tower i havent checked in on in a while so cant speak to it [03:30:27] ohh ive heard its good [03:31:03] I'd say the terraria wiki but some of their guides are pretty terrible so I think i gotta say the minecraft wiki [03:31:19] I know of one wiki dedicated to blind accessibility in video games [03:31:21] It's gotten so much better since it moved from fandom [03:31:27] oh we going beyond mira? [03:31:28] O: [03:31:34] MC WIki is awesome [03:31:44] ah yeah i should've specified, my apologies [03:31:54] Nookipedia, the Animal Crossing Wiki, is also a treat [03:32:48] agreed [03:32:49] Their CSS is great, and they even made an entire [[w:REST API]] to access data from pages using [[mw:Extension:Cargo]]! [03:32:49] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/REST_API https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Cargo [03:32:49] [1/2] [03:32:50] [2/2] [03:33:21] Why's there two wikilink bots? [03:33:33] Also, one of the directors, the very awesome @kayvan is the developer of a little thing called IndieWikiBuddy 😄 [03:33:40] social anixiety [03:33:41] I think wm-bot messages shouldn't be relayed to discord [03:33:52] lol [03:33:59] they werent [03:34:06] theres a reason we changed it [03:34:13] oh [03:34:24] so when IRC people link we can get the links they post [03:34:40] ohhh [03:34:52] hm, what others [03:35:07] Wiki-Bot can't interpret wikilinks from MiragezeRelay then? [03:35:10] NIWA in general is a cool concept but I havent gotten to see a lot of them [03:35:18] Bulbapedia is [03:35:19] well [03:35:21] Bulbapedia [03:35:26] ig [03:36:50] Honestly I like when wikis take the time to heavily style themselves so they don't look at all like the vanilla themes [03:37:03] it must be hard work but the results are fantastic [03:37:12] Defintely [03:37:54] Breaking the unafffilated thing a bit but https://phighting.wiki and https://urbanshade.org (Pressure Wiki) are awesome looking [03:39:38] the wiki beyond the ice wall, but only because I'm obsessed with the subject. If I'm editing the wiki, it's definitely not the highest quality wiki [03:41:59] the wiki itself isn't anything to write home about, the templates are as vanilla and wikipedia-like (boring) as they could possibly be, and a good 50% of the project's lore isn't even on there [03:42:18] this looks fantastic [03:42:44] least favorite wiki? probably my own, but only because I'm so aware of all of its flaws due to editing it all of the time. [03:43:26] credit to @tedkalashnikov for phighting, and @mooncloud for pressure [03:43:39] Huhwuh [03:43:49] Ou [03:43:58] I didn’t do the pressure wiki styling [03:44:00] They like your styles [03:44:01] Actually was it you or gato? [03:44:03] Oh [03:44:04] That was kittygirl [03:44:12] Ah, my apologies! [03:44:17] They’re not in this server [03:44:23] oh option C hahah [03:44:32] I thought it was gato [03:44:39] :sillycat: [03:44:51] Kittygirl is gato [03:45:00] im dumb! [03:45:13] Maybe I should go sleep haha [03:45:26] I was going to make a styles.css joke, but this gift will need to keep on giving until the recipient is found [03:46:17] I still wanna read through some postings for expanding an article on enwiki tomorrow and I need brain for that [03:46:38] Also have a DYK nom to slap with DYK?no [03:46:53] oh and like a wiki meetup in the city [03:47:00] might be the important one [03:47:55] From a styling perspective, some of the pre-exodus reception wikis had some truly impressive challenges to all color theory best practices. [03:51:17] Do you work in PR again [03:51:27] [1/2] does this copyright?

(Though, I'm not a lawyer) [03:53:24] my wiki is urban dictionary but in spanish [03:56:30] Not currently, heh. [03:57:12] But legitimately, I do appreciate anyone trying something outside of conventional norms, a few of them even managed to break color theory so hard it came all the way around and kind of worked again. [04:04:48] (It's always funny to be in this server and meet or learn about wiki contributors as my first ever interaction with the communities of games I know. Wikis are an interesting network!) [04:27:05] my wiki doesnt even look like citizen anymore 😭😭 [04:31:33] How do you make images function as clickable links? [04:38:47] [[File:Image.png|link=Ice Spice]] [04:38:47] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/File:Image.png [04:41:18] only wm-bot dared to link the image [05:13:49] [1/2] Is anyone else experiencing this error? (503 Service Temporarily Unavailable [05:13:49] [2/2] ) [05:24:13] That happened to me for a bit until I refreshed the page [05:28:01] Yes, but when I refresh the page, it goes back again [05:29:25] :ThinkerMH: [05:33:32] [1/3] hello \:o i recently got the email that my RequestSSL request has been approved, but i have some questions: [05:33:33] [2/3] - when i first opened up the page, it still has an unsecure warning [05:33:33] [3/3] - instead of pointing to the wiki, it points to the miraheze frontpage [05:46:23] How do I use a size other than 135 x 135? [06:06:54] for? [06:07:02] Wiki logo [06:07:16] using which skin [06:30:15] Monobook [06:34:33] [1/7] maybe something like [06:34:33] [2/7] ``` [06:34:34] [3/7] .mw-wiki-logo { [06:34:34] [4/7] background-size: contain [06:34:34] [5/7] } [06:34:35] [6/7] ``` [06:34:35] [7/7] ? [06:34:40] not sure if its the correct class [08:14:51] I can't be bothered lol [08:15:26] Plus not fussed [08:15:29] Yeah I think the vanilla theme does look pretty good [08:15:59] but the custom designed ones are incredible, and alot of effort clearly went into them [08:30:42] [1/3] Two questions: [08:30:43] [2/3] 1. What's the "stroke" property? [08:30:43] [3/3] 2. Is there a way to increase font size in user preferences? I thought there was but I went looking and can't find one. [09:19:21] one of my users is experience purge fails when on their mobile browser, but for me it works fine? what could be causing the issue on their end [09:21:17] you can search the stroke property in MDN [09:21:23] they'll give a detailed description [09:21:41] thanks! [09:23:33] what is mdn? [09:36:44] mozilla developer network [09:36:56] they offer resources on html, css, javascript, and the like [09:37:06] (ping @mx.lilasekhmet since i didn't reply) [10:10:52] [1/2] so stroke actually is what I want to be doing but it's not turning light blue in cosmos.css? Even though it's fine in inspect, and there's definitely no indent error this time?? girl wut [10:10:53] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1310910641426665513/image.png?ex=6746f02c&is=67459eac&hm=716bbdd70d335dc328700f86b3cb894c46a6fd8119ec0750a04e7d255f0a5059& [10:11:57] are you trying to add a border? [10:12:21] no - I'm changing the colour of the icons on the editing button [10:13:34] specifically the dropdown one [10:15:57] okay, it's fine, it worked anyway [10:17:33] all good! [15:04:36] dawg what... [15:09:03] [1/2] Hey can anyone tell me why `Script error: The module returned a nil value. It is supposed to return an export table.` this is being returned by this module https://bn.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E0%A6%AE%E0%A6%A1%E0%A6%BF%E0%A6%89%E0%A6%B2:%E0%A6%B8%E0%A7%8D%E0%A6%A5%E0%A6%BE%E0%A6%A8%E0%A6%BE%E0%A6%A8%E0%A7%8D%E0%A6%A4%E0%A6%B0%E0%A7%87%E0%A6%B0_%E0%A6%85%E0%A6%A8%E0%A7%81%E0%A6%B0%E0%A7%8B [15:09:03] [2/2] %E0%A6%A7 [15:39:12] I regularly talk with and meet IRL people who have held Adminship longer then I’ve been alive [17:33:34] one more boost needed [17:33:43] I can't boost cuz no money :/ [18:02:01] what's the advantage of boosting over donating directly? [18:03:46] If you want to contribute to miraheze don’t boost donate [18:03:53] All money in a boost goes to discord [18:04:14] The server just gets point to things like having discord.gg/miraheze and role icons [18:04:18] We don’t get money from it [18:04:33] ah fair [18:05:00] If you already chose to pay for Discord Nitro or have a subscription, you get a free boost or two to use [18:05:03] That’s why I have the role [18:11:47] ohh nice [18:12:47] must feel crazy [18:18:28] [1/2] It seems to have worked!

[19:57:04] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1311058161502781610/microsoft_edge_screenshot_Nov_26_2024_11_55_55_AM_PST.png.jpg?ex=6747798f&is=6746280f&hm=57637c19ad6959fdc8b5c20a42fd3b3fe323101628309c4762a4430f18ec7b62& [19:58:38] You've had a wikimedia account as long as I've been alive [19:59:20] It looks really good, how do links like Main_Page#Calendar work? [20:00:39] Matches the heading [20:00:57] ah sweet [20:01:16] i don't see an issues then [20:01:49] it might not work well if a browser has images disabled, or has a very slow connection [20:01:55] but that's rare [20:03:51] Prolly doesn't work [20:04:46] But it looks cool. [20:07:21] I'd recommend seeing if you can make the text invisible or something, does your wiki have a sandbox i can test stuff with? [20:07:38] if not i can make my own in user space [20:08:29] Hi, sorry for the ping, I couldn't find the option, could you show me? [20:09:32] Special:ManageWiki/namespaces [20:10:37] aah okay, I was searching in the wiki permissions xd thanks [20:22:25] The wiki does NOT have a public sandbox, but you can access yours by clicking on "sandbox" in Monobook (Desktop) or visiting "User:Your name/sandbox." [20:22:42] :D thanks! [20:23:31] You could hide text at a glance with CSS but it’s fundamentally impossible to hide content to someone with a basic understanding of the software [21:00:09] [1/3] @tehblueangel404 I've managed to get this far, but the `[ edit | edit source ]` text is in a strange location, is this good for you?

[21:36:40] Hello, i'm having a problem with importing templates (infobox ones) to my wiki. Can someone tell me how to import templates to personal wiki? Thank you. [21:36:55] what kind of problem? [21:37:19] I just don't know how to do it, and i can't find where does it say how [21:37:26] ^ [21:38:46] [21:39:08] BUT - don't take from Wikipedia, save your nerves [21:39:36] Okay! Thank you :pupCoffeeMH: [21:39:48] ideally learn how make infobox by yourself, this whole guide is a starter [21:40:26] Will try to [21:49:16] ah cool! I've added a new template, I added a post to your main page's talk page about it :D [21:49:53] if you want any changes lmk [21:59:35] Is there a special page that lists every template in my wiki? [22:00:06] Special:AllPages, in namespace dropdown pick Template [22:00:45] Uhh, i did everything great, but when i want to finally import the xml, it throws a 504, is it normal? [22:03:03] [1/3] sadly yes, Special:Import is unstable [22:03:03] [2/3] if you are trying to import several templates at once it's better to use Special:RequestImport on Meta Wiki, so tech folks will do this for you [22:03:03] [3/3] alternatively, if Miraheze Dev Wiki happens to have templates you need, you should be able to import w/o files directly [22:03:31] the latter is explained in the same guide [22:04:15] I'm just trying to import the infobox for countries. Should i be able to import that directly then? [22:05:19] Is less than 2MB, so ig nothing should be failing, and the prefix is okay [22:06:30] yeah, idk why it fail no matter what [22:06:43] I guess it's better to update the guide in that regard too [22:07:44] [1/2] Dev Wiki has this [22:07:45] [2/2] [22:08:57] I will try again and tell you if it fails [22:09:00] Sorry for bothering [22:09:28] don't be sorry, it's a support server after all [22:09:48] I'll go sleep now tho lol [22:10:19] Miraheze doesn't have staff but volunteers and other folks here are happy to help [22:10:33] Dw, i will ask them given the case [22:10:36] Goodnight [22:21:16] It seems to work well. [22:28:19] I'm glad! [22:39:54] [1/2] Hi, I'm new to the Wiki, thanks for hosting miraheze, btw, but I have a stupid newbie question. I created a wiki a week ago, and have been inviting friends to join me. It's great so far, but recently one gave me his acct name, but I can't find it. he's not available to double check, so is there any way to search the Global users to see if he exists and there was a mis-spelling [22:39:54] [2/2] ? [22:47:21] [1/2] Special:CentralAuth is the page of global accounts you're looking for. [22:47:21] [2/2] They'll only show up in your local user list after visiting your wiki while logged in, just FYI [22:48:17] thanks [23:06:58] [1/2] Hi everyone, had a quick question. I'm having some weird issues with content not updating after changing settings. I just switched over my wiki's skind to Cosmos and set a background image. Now the image isn't showing anywhere but I'm only seeing the cosmos sking when logged in, And the old vector skin still shows when not logged in. Tried different browsers and incognito mod [23:06:59] [2/2] e. Same issue. Now I do have a custom domain registered at cloudflare. I disabled caching in cloudflare for now as I'm still working on the initial setup of the Wiki. But does miraheze have some CDN that might be causing this issue due to some caching?

Forgot that without the proxy, there is not caching/cdn. Brainfart [23:18:51] no worries [23:19:06] unfortunately not, I did actually change the site's default skin. Still seems like a user only thing [23:19:25] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1311109083834744892/image.png?ex=6747a8fc&is=6746577c&hm=afad9d0391666e7c8d04e54ed0563c53ebdba68cb025cfc3378edc89cfda5747& [23:19:33] Try purging the page’s cache then [23:19:41] You can do so in the “More” dropdown next to edit [23:20:10] ManageWiki doesn’t alert CF that the website’s cache should be purged on skin change [23:20:27] aaaah yeah that did the trick [23:20:44] or at least it did for my host, lemme get someone else to check too
