[00:08:07] your journey has started [00:08:31] hey [00:09:17] cornwall [00:11:20] ? [00:14:52] Cornwall, UK. [00:17:05] yesa [00:17:09] thats where im from [00:18:01] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1328880835776086166/image0.gif?ex=67885038&is=6786feb8&hm=a78bdb7867f5e251d0b680a3188c91338332d93b6229d0aa5a36319b1319b6ef& [00:18:36] also i love you said cornwall uk [00:18:54] it angers me sm when ppl say england lmao [00:19:55] Well I won't comment on that to avoid a lengthy debate but 🫣 [00:20:07] well yeah you would be sat here for hours if you did lmao [00:20:20] all ill say is i campagin for more rights for cornwall [00:20:28] and heavily dispute our status lol [00:58:29] hi could i talk with any of the wiki creators abt something rq [00:59:38] feel free to DM [00:59:46] alr 1 sec [02:20:42] In a situation where a wiki only has 1 member actively contributing and there is no active bureaucrat, is an election still required for the active user to be promoted? I've found the steward request page, but don't want to make an invalid request if an election is still required in this situation. [02:44:21] [1/3] iirc it goes [02:44:22] [2/3] make a post saying you want to be bureaucrat + reasons (no votes necessary) [02:44:22] [3/3] after 5 days make the request [02:49:14] is the "1 member" you or someone else? [02:58:43] [1/2] I am the only member to have made edits to the wiki in question for a few months now. I don't want the current bureaucrat removed or demoted, they just haven't had time to work on the project since April of 2024. Hopefully they will be able to return soon, but I don't know when that will be. [02:58:43] [2/2] There's nothing urgent that needs an active bureaucrat, but the wiki currently has noone capable of managing some of the settings such as the logo and extensions. [02:59:31] ah oki [02:59:35] they won't be demoted fyi [02:59:57] I just wanted to make it clear that this isn't an attempt to take over or anything like that [03:00:02] mhm [03:00:20] the safer choice is to file the election i think [03:00:33] if something urgent does come up, you can contact CVT and/or ask for a temporary appointment [03:01:59] From my understanding of the default election rules and the message from Toasted, I would state my intent and reasons on the discussion page for the main page. Is that correct? [03:02:24] mhm [03:04:20] The standard convention is that if you prove you can do some constructive editing, you can temporarily be appointed as caretaker of the wiki. If you improve the wiki, you can be promoted permanently to admin. [03:05:15] To lodge a request, you’d send it in at [[SR/P]] [03:05:16]

[03:05:51] if you want, you can look at our local election (though it's three users with one inactive crat, so we all voted for each other ^^;): https://rainverse.wiki/wiki/Rainverse_Wiki:Bureaucrat_Local_Election_2024-04-18 [03:06:51] yeah so in that case, since users existed on the wiki, it was a valid election but typically when a wiki has no active editors, any election with just one participant is considered a show election so it’s not typically taken into consideration for a permanent appointment [03:07:49] in their case, they appear to be a regular contributor: "I am the only member to have made edits to the wiki in question for a few months now" [03:08:09] oh never mind, i reread your message [03:09:16] hmm, what about a user who has improved the wiki (where the wiki has only one active editor), do they need to file an election, or can they go straight to SR/P? [03:09:34] (assuming there's no urgent need for it yet) [03:15:40] Of the 202 articles, the original bureaucrat created 5; I have created the rest as I work my way through the material this wiki is intended to document. [03:17:26] centralauth hates me [03:18:33] yeah it does that sometimes [03:19:48] they should be able to go directly to SR/P [03:20:12] that’s very good, you should definitely go to SR/P in that case [03:23:05] Thanks, I've submitted my request. No real urgency to this one, but it'll be nice to be able to manage things if a need for something arises (and get that logo in). [05:41:32] pretty nice place [06:03:00] is there a way i can import the settings of one wiki into another, so they both look the same? [06:03:03] and have the same other settings [06:51:38] you can copy the LocalSettings.php config and paste it in a PR? [06:56:33] don't forget about ManageWiki [06:56:45] you can do an export via Special:DataDump, and ask to import on phorge [08:06:34] You could export the managewiki settings at [08:06:42] Oh [08:06:51] I’m like two hours late :CerberHuh: [08:33:42] [1/2] anyone know on how i can use @media to solve this?

[10:30:10] mooncloud: yes, many requests have also been done for that [10:32:02] What are the guidelines for what would be acceptable and not? [10:32:13] honestly idk lol [10:32:15] Are they written anywhere? [10:32:37] but imo, as long as you can tell that the icon is by the image, it's fine to me [11:39:00] might do it [11:39:10] is it possible to display a user's profile picture? like on fandom [11:39:40] https://dev.fandom.com/wiki/User_Avatar_Finder like this [11:40:38] There is an extension for that. Forgot the name, but something with social profile or something similar [11:40:50] Via ManageWiki. [11:44:36] i dont think its that one [11:45:20] userprofilev2 [11:48:38] Yeah that one [11:49:05] I never used Fandom, nor the Cosmos skin really 🙂 [11:50:19] i feel like SocialProfile should be removed ngl... last time i used it on my wiki it had lots of personal questions like school, work, etc [11:51:56] which is [11:51:59] weird like why??/ [11:52:07] super useless [11:53:41] does anyone know how to use the CSS template?
