[03:30:43] is there a globalpersonal js file on miraheze one can use like on fandom? [03:33:06] Mhm! It's base MediaWiki [03:33:55] User:Example/global.js [03:35:58] Aight, thanks! :3 [03:41:43] Gladly [04:03:30] Yo I feel like I'm missing something very important in this infobox [04:03:31] https://thirdmillennium.miraheze.org/wiki/Afghanistan [04:03:38] i think it's the header right? [04:14:41] you can go without if you want to [04:14:42] e.g. https://rainverse.wiki/wiki/Jessica_Li [04:14:51] it's not like there's a Cosmic Rule for Infoboxes [04:18:13] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1330028448546033717/image.png?ex=678c7d04&is=678b2b84&hm=d01090c7944a935a814e1fbceb98bf65bd4ef82bcab8083e8eb6662cb0e0a8c7& [04:18:18] hardsteel... alchemists.... [04:18:24] what has she done to my bot [04:21:27] ? [04:22:06] he's on the ice spice fandom wiki [05:02:44] https://thirdmillennium.miraheze.org/wiki/Finland this is the most cursed thing I've ever conceived originally [06:38:27] [1/2] Im using subst for a namespace preload and it went back to being the template source itself on the actual preload page [06:38:27] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1330063737113149450/image.png?ex=678c9de2&is=678b4c62&hm=12657588a002c748d87fe5558d25ebe64ae5008bda0bf357866891f7b3b68a6e& [08:27:59] Are there any rules around making user subpages on meta? [08:28:22] I can’t really find anything on-wiki [08:35:54] nah idts [08:41:49] [1/2] Well, not as such, but personally I would draw the line as "useful for Miraheze" - Not a personal space to save wikipedia pages on for example, but I know that some disagree on that. [08:41:50] [2/2] But you could look at [[User:Rodejong]] where I have an automated PrefixIndex of all my subpages [08:41:50]

[08:57:54] Would it be alright to create a subpage for general info about a wiki alliance on miraheze? [08:58:30] While we sort out creating an independent website and getting all of that done [09:11:47] Yeah, I would say so. [09:16:08] how do I make it so that articles under a specific namespace dont automatically capitalise? [09:16:51] [1/2] also, im using this as a namespace preload. but when I create an article under the namespace, it includes the subst: which I don't want. [09:16:51] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1330103603201048628/image.png?ex=678cc303&is=678b7183&hm=780dc89c796e636a4de30d9d80fd0f9d3b4e707bad2bd7b808697a5f57eeb26a& [09:18:17] I'm using the subst: in the first place because if I didn't, any page created under that namespace would preload the template source itself instead of the literal text in the preload page. the is there so that the preload page itself doesnt have its source completely swapped to the template source [09:29:38] You can do it from Special:ManageWiki/namespaces [09:31:26] which setting? [09:31:34] nvm [09:31:41] $wgCaptialLinksOverrides [09:31:47] [1/2] it's already off [09:31:47] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1330107362161201213/image.png?ex=678cc683&is=678b7503&hm=a2769f42bf3ce7f4995f55c83304b953b12b4ad60c8c46aabf5acb367cbea52f& [09:32:16] but whenever I make a page it still forces capitals? [09:34:01] Give me a sec [09:39:30] Why does that option only control the affirmative [09:40:06] Which means disabling $wgCapitalLinks and then switching it to true for every namespace you want it [09:40:06] hi chat [09:40:09] That's dumb [09:40:23] BlankEclair: why ManageWiki be dumb about this [09:41:19] Hello @prabhasxd [09:41:41] hi rhino!!!!!!!! [09:42:24] BlankEclair: it should do [$var][$namespace_id] = $value not [$var][$namespace_id] = true; [09:42:36] And have it take a default of $wgCaptialLinks [09:44:29] https://issue-tracker.miraheze.org/T13086 can anyone check on this if thats ok [09:56:46] RhinosF1: ioof [09:56:50] oof* [11:45:36] how do i do that [11:47:57] <_zombi_> [1/2] is there a template which makes this happen when i move my cursor over a link? [11:47:57] <_zombi_> [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1330141628396208178/image.png?ex=678ce66d&is=678b94ed&hm=4562faec1ac47ee01436a23769bbce153bf58aaa0c769eca89f8bb321a5dad34& [11:49:37] bump [11:49:56] how do I allow underscores _ in a namespace? [11:50:05] _zombi_: it's either a gadget or extension (i forgot which) [11:50:33] <_zombi_> is there a way to search for those? [11:50:38] extension, called "Previews" in Special:ManageWiki/extensions [11:50:58] <_zombi_> thanks! [11:51:16] > [18/01/2025 22:49] how do I allow underscores _ in a namespace? [11:51:23] longjawed: you can't really [11:51:33] why not? [11:51:42] internally, mediawiki converts spaces to underscores and vice versa [11:51:57] so if I use a space, will it be an underscore? [11:51:58] though you can use DISPLAYTITLE to change how it looks on a specific page [11:52:05] well, no [11:52:13] how do i use DISPLAYTITLE? is it an extension? [11:52:23] built-in magic word [11:52:42] {{DISPLAYTITLE: Bed Prices:Mattress}} [11:52:58] assuming that the namespace is Bed_Prices and the page title is Mattress [11:53:58] [1/2] it requires two other extensions, pageimages and textextract, and couple of settings (in "Additional settings" admin menu), I forgot which ones [11:53:59] [2/2] and it will take some time to start working [11:54:51] [1/2] it's default thing, don't touch extension [11:54:51] [2/2] you need to swap flags of restrict DISPLAYTITLE and allow DISPLAYTITLE in settings [11:54:57] <_zombi_, replying to theoneandonlylegroom> tysm [11:55:47] I still think default set is wrong, it's always confusing [11:56:29] if it was other way around people wouldn't suffer w/ it/try extension, and we wouldn't have to repeat the solution again and again [11:58:02] i was wondering if I could have a lot of specific datas in portable infoboxes (i.e: king, emperor, head of state, GDP) but only use some of them to not waste time? [11:59:06] in portable infobox if you don't provide data to parameter it simply won't show up, you won't have to do anything else w/ coding like in other methods [11:59:26] so I can just have one catch-all country infobox that can ge used for anything? [11:59:28] unless you mean something else here and I misunderstood, I'm having a headache now [11:59:35] yes [11:59:42] les goo [11:59:50] that's the point of templates [11:59:59] mostly [12:00:11] you can use them several times differently [12:00:16] is there a CSS box template that I can copy [12:00:23] i need them to make the front page look better [12:00:25] css box? wdym [12:00:26] ah [12:00:42] (personally idk) [12:00:43] it depends on how you want to compose the main page [12:00:56] something like these people but simpler [12:01:01] twbtiw.miraheze.org [12:01:08] oh that's not correct- [12:01:19] just know it's twbtiw [12:01:40] specifically like the "Earth, Atlas, Akupara" part of boxes [12:02:43] also please get a discord account [12:02:50] yeah nah [12:03:34] wait i gtg shower [12:03:42] just place the template (if you're even searching) here [12:09:41] It'll be in ManageWiki/settings [12:40:12] huh its installed for me as well but it doesnt show previews? [12:40:20] oh? [12:41:34] takes a while i beliee [12:41:37] believe [12:41:46] yeah, and there's a pesky setting [12:42:15] ok lemme check my wiki [12:46:14] [1/2] how do i fix the citizen sticky menu appearing on top and not being sticky [12:46:14] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1330156296368029726/Screenshot_2025-01-18-20-44-49-65_40deb401b9ffe8e1df2f1cc5ba480b12.jpg?ex=678cf416&is=678ba296&hm=dca686ba9f7fa7191882975cb500c468924a1e9775a899213856b02ae995911a& [12:58:08] [1/2] this [12:58:09] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1330159293126676530/IMG_20250118_155752.jpg?ex=678cf6e0&is=678ba560&hm=bd8f8567b628e1506176602799783836d7949bb13b382eb68387ebfca6928486& [16:34:20] <.guardianx.> [1/9] Anyone know if this is correct?

[17:06:44] I only use Skybe [17:09:31] A “discord” is a lack of harmony between notes sounding together. It can often be quite grating on the ears. [17:10:42] Not sure why I would want my account to be in discord. Personally, I have all my accounts blessed by Concordia. [17:15:12] I use teamspeak personally [17:15:27] can anyone help me out with how this page looks (uncompleted) aesthetic wise [17:15:31] aka the format [17:16:03] I completely forgit about teamspeak, is it still a thing? [17:16:28] Hell no [17:16:31] Never used it [17:16:35] Hm? [17:16:45] https://agesofconflict.wiki/wiki/China [17:17:10] I decided the wiki (and the admins agreed) for countries since the last update made them more specialised as entities [17:17:23] idk if that makes sense? [17:17:38] dm the weird thumbnail still no idea y it's doing that [17:18:09] [1/2] This isn't the page you sent, but I'll note that on the central page this blue text is impossible to read (or is that because I'm colorblind). [17:18:09] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1330224725602992148/image.png?ex=678d33d0&is=678be250&hm=024c692710938bcf25dd5a8fc86417516b0dd3585e3ae0d07e5e98a657ae480c& [17:18:18] idk I'm not an admin [17:18:46] Nearly impossible yes [17:18:49] but it is yeah [17:20:12] oh and how's the page atm? (wip) [17:21:04] Anyways, the page you sent doesn't look ugly if that's the feedback you want. Though I'd personally use a header over subheadings. [17:21:22] At least a header between the first general paragraph and the rest of the subheadings. [17:21:38] dosen't look ugly is quite a pessimistic way to describe it but- [17:21:47] I like the infobox a lot [17:22:22] Oh, I just noticed the tabs [17:22:24] That's cool [17:22:53] yeah I thought it worked betetr since some countries are in 7 scenarioes [17:23:04] wait omg no 8 🥲 [17:23:57] so overall it's not too bad? [17:24:17] I've never seen that before (though tbf I don't peruse that many wikis). Does it make editing source messy? With you basically having 7 pages in one? [17:24:31] Or is it still fairly easy to navugate [17:24:49] Yes, but this is an example of how messy it is when you attempt to merge 5 into one https://agesofconflict.wiki/wiki/United_States [17:26:01] Is this a fully released game? [17:26:41] the visuals remind me of Territorial.io if it was a more detailed game [17:27:11] idk I think it's a in dev game cause it;'s being freq updated [17:27:27] released on steam after itch in like aug 2023 or smth [17:27:30] rlly good game imo [17:30:06] [1/3] also which looks better? [17:30:06] [2/3] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1330227731664863292/LzOKxFb.png?ex=678d369d&is=678be51d&hm=0c0b2d6bf3fee2619493625e1a5d66dd1eaae335749843e7f6b9d518d62c2292& [17:30:06] [3/3] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1330227732113526886/Roj9kbR.png?ex=678d369d&is=678be51d&hm=400047059b5926ebcf1f3e96dc4f3e2d22665614075ae826946a33114ec65d21& [17:32:22] I'd say blank, simply because so much of "Canada" gets cut off. [17:32:36] Also the angle it's at annoys my brain lol [17:33:27] Are those little colored dots cities? [17:34:54] ik ur js saying it like the game but that's js canada canada, maple syrup land [17:35:42] it's like if u've heard of it HOI4, except dynamic names r for a certain size and dosen't do it for exclaves too [17:35:56] [1/3] another example [17:35:57] [2/3] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1330229201554509906/UXSfkZl.png?ex=678d37fc&is=678be67c&hm=8cd0b360c6faa44d57a20b26da2eef245c5b6ee58b67af513ee238ae9936c97c& [17:35:57] [3/3] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1330229202091376752/LaT3SuS.png?ex=678d37fc&is=678be67c&hm=cf1c647efa6ed0f1971ce66db1e1f071b7589840552afb52f31039579d8b89ba& [17:36:08] A lot of the holes r mountains [17:36:58] Well I was referring to the text getting cut off. [17:37:06] ah kk [17:37:29] well used this one in the china article does it look better or worse? [17:38:23] For China the text looks fine, though if you're going for a standarzdized look them you should probably stick with all blank or all text. Unless you don't mind; in that case, text I'd suppose? [17:39:42] [1/2] another example [17:39:42] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1330230148334747678/779cHqU.png?ex=678d38dd&is=678be75d&hm=919ea8d02e853230fcc18a80a1360dcc5f65b6c2a7423520d50c49f918bba8cf& [18:30:09] I'm super busy atm, am I going to get in trouble if I can't set up the main page yet [18:30:17] it's been a few days now and I still don't have time [18:30:20] it won't be removed will it [18:31:13] Nope [18:31:21] You've got months [18:31:29] See [[Dormany Policy]] [18:31:30]

[18:31:38] awesome [18:32:16] (Technically there is a fast track that will be implemented but that still has plenty of time and only happens if you have no edits? [18:32:50] <_arawynn> not doing your main page has no consequences - I didn't change anything about mine (mostly because I just can't come up with the wording) but I've been working on the wiki itself so it doesn't get marked as inactive [18:44:10] I've seen new wikis go weeks without making their first edits. [18:44:37] Nemly because, like in your instance, people get busy. [18:44:48] That or they gave up before even starting... [18:45:59] Is there a live tally of how many wikis Miraheze is hosting? [18:48:47] On the meta front page [18:49:07] Just over 13k @the_mrbob [18:49:31] Wow, crazy. [18:50:14] And considering wikis that get closed over time, Mirahze has probably had even more than that in total\ [18:51:00] Over 53k request total [18:51:04] Ye [18:51:04] But that included declined [18:51:21] Next time I get a database dump I’ll make some more charts [18:51:34] You can probably see how many approves there are in the queue page [18:52:11] We've grown a lot very quickly in the last few years [18:52:25] Insanely [18:52:29] @pixldev do you still have the graph of requests [18:52:39] Uh [18:52:41] Somewhere [18:52:43] Not on me [18:52:45] In history yes [18:53:06] Leaving home soon [18:59:40] Curious, do you guys see this as a positive (I mean it's certainly a sign of success) or do you ever wish growth stayed a little slowr? [19:00:05] It's both [19:00:19] I'd like to have seen resources grow at a closer pace [19:00:20] A double-edged sword perchance? [19:00:27] Maximum yes [19:00:37]
