Cause some stuff only work when you are not editing (css mainly) [01:35:57] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1345570289697685504/image.png?ex=67c5077c&is=67c3b5fc&hm=010e928695a4fb946b53a80c0c085fc1e08ee280c60f220cc5ce2d10d1a9f4ca& [01:40:25] I really don't know if I should just make it a MISC [02:08:12] [1/25] Is there an extention that does something close to this JS?

I've already enabled it. [05:18:58] I swear there was a page for requesting some stuff like removing the /wiki/ part of the URL [05:19:03] or am I hallucinating... [05:28:17] it's a restricted setting, requested on [[SR/RC]] [05:28:18] [05:37:26] thank you [06:06:52] [1/2] where the hell is the headers thing... [06:06:52] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1345638468553932941/IMG_1335.png?ex=67c546fb&is=67c3f57b&hm=239dbdb1f134631200c2a9936f2d06390433bc7469e144e7c6f02b00f208f70e& [06:09:50] this is why source editor rules [06:10:17] grrrr [06:10:20] i thought cosmos had it [06:10:27] why doesn't citizen do [06:37:19] What would be the css code for changing the font of lists? (i.e. like a bullet point list) [06:57:48] Is it possible to move a wiki from one domain to another (for example, from a change of name of the wiki's content) [07:02:39] i don't think so [07:02:53] you have to create a new wiki but say you're moving [07:05:42] What domains? Where from? If it's between domains on Miraheze it should be possible no problem [07:08:31] no it's possible [07:08:34] <.labster> Guest27: I have changed a wiki's domain before, it's definitely possible. [07:08:52] yeah, it would be one miraheze domain to another [07:09:05] it's just called database name change [07:09:32] from Xwiki (x.miraheze.org) to Ywiki (y.miraheze.org) [07:09:55] has to be requested via Phorge [07:09:56] <.labster> I'm trying to decide where we want the change. Possibly just on Phorge? It's kind of weird because it's a steward approval but it can really only be done by tech. [07:10:16] steward approval is in case of scope change [07:10:38] like you want to change both theme of the wiki and URL [07:10:45] <.labster> Ah, right. [07:12:08] <.labster> https://issue-tracker.miraheze.org/maniphest/task/edit/form/22/ is where you can request. You can log in there by linking to your Miraheze account. [07:13:15] <.labster> that form should really be documented on Meta somewhere... or somewhere easier to find [08:37:14] heyo [08:37:40] I'm tryna change the display title of a page to not match the page's name [08:38:16] I've set RestrictDisplayTitle to false in settings but it still doesn't work [08:38:49] WAIT [08:38:50] nvm [08:38:56] it works??? [08:38:59] hey I'll take it [08:39:03] sorry for bothering [09:00:10] how can i make my wiki show up when searching it [09:21:31] You mean, in search engines like Google? [09:27:07] If so - the answer is complex. Generally your wiki will appear on Google after a while when it has content. The ways to optimize the wiki for appearing in search engines is called "Search Engine Optimization", there are a few extensions on Miraheze that can help you make pages more appealing to search engines as well as you can make your pages better by adding alt text to images, structuring articles properly etc. [09:28:33] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/User:NotAracham/WikiSEO_-_Improving_Search_Ranking [10:48:22] With help of google sheets and python scripts I made infoboxes for my sims, the problem is - there are like 764 of them, creating article for each of them manually would be cumbersome and tiring, where can I get help to solve this issue of mine? :) (On my private sandbox wiki, just saying, I'm not spamming any Sims Wiki, no worries) [10:48:33] And Hello, sorry I haven't started with that [10:49:53] why do you need over 700 individual infoboxes? [10:50:02] for each individual sim [10:50:55] the point of templates/infoboxes is that you have one thing w/ set of parameters you can use on loads of pages [10:51:04] You want to automate the creation of articles ? [10:51:50] Yes, automation of creation [10:52:01] Use the action api [10:52:10] [[mw:API]] [10:52:11] [10:52:45] https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/API:Edit [10:54:50] [1/2] Oof, I have to say that I used python scripts but they were made with help of GPT :') [10:54:50] [2/2] I don't understand how this API works to be honest [10:57:17] Is there a way for total dumb idiot available? (that means for example me) [11:09:45] @wojtek9572 there's pywikibot [11:09:54] It should be something that ChatGPT can help with [11:13:06] Thanks, I'll try it, have a nice day :) [11:26:40] [1/2] finally figured out the lock icon on pages [11:26:40] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1345718949014143079/l.png?ex=67c591ef&is=67c4406f&hm=38f0bdd1d49471bba8519f83ec5a87e6f35d3cae056b202dbd6f2988e8a780da& [11:27:49] it only involves CSS and an specific message if you don't like the MediaWiki's protection help page [11:27:59] What family of sites miraheze is working on? [11:28:11] family? [11:28:28] pywikibot asks me this and idk what to choose [11:28:45] You'll need to create your own family file [11:28:58] Oh [11:29:08] Pywikibot don't have Miraheze's family set by default [11:29:54] Hence what Rhinos said, there is an tutorial on making a family file, or set to a specific site if you only have to work on 1 wiki [11:30:46] Where can I find the tutorial? [11:31:24] https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Pywikibot/Use_on_third-party_wikis#Mismatched_interwiki_configuration [11:32:18] Thanks, I'll give it a read [11:33:23] VIETNAM MENTIONED!!!!!!! [11:33:43] If you dont understand the api generally, I definitely wouldn't recommend Pywikibot [11:34:06] Special:ApiSandbox can help you understanding the api if you're totally unsure [11:34:28] (But just note despite the name it IS NOT a sandbox and will make changes to the wiki) [11:34:37] AWB can be an option as well if you don't intend to run a specific script DAILY [11:34:49] if you're original authority whose the copied authority [11:34:58] 🤔 [11:35:37] xin chào [11:36:51] Morning @originalauthority [11:37:17] Good morn [11:37:25] This is super early for me on a weekend [11:38:22] good time seeing you, btw [11:38:36] has been a while dealing with wikigg stuffs [11:38:46] I've been up like 3.5 hours [11:39:22] I woke like halfway at 9:30 and rolled back over [11:44:12] @snowstacked [11:44:22] is there anything wrong with this CSS [11:44:24] [1/26]
