[02:38:38] hello, want to asks [02:38:45] how to use {{#if:}}? [02:38:53] there's no parser functions extensions in miraheze? [02:42:45] there is [02:42:55] is it enabled by default? [02:43:02] or do we need to enabled it manually? [02:47:32] ah forget it, I make a mistake apparently 🥲 [02:54:42] how to use string functions? [03:32:49] alijaya: Special:ManageWiki/settings -> enable $wgPFEnableStringFunctions [03:51:56] I have tried it, it doesn't seems work? [03:52:04] did I do thing wrong? 🥲 [09:09:19] Can you add a
mention to Common.css or am i dumb? [09:28:53] what you mean like [09:29:26] [1/3] ```div { [09:29:26] [2/3] cool-property: "cool" [09:29:27] [3/3] }``` [09:29:29] ? [09:37:44] is that how you do it? 😭 then if you put in [09:37:46] [1/5] ``` [09:37:46] [2/5]
[09:37:46] [3/5] ... [09:37:47] [4/5] /div [09:37:47] [5/5] ``` [09:37:51] it would work? [09:50:36] [1/4] oh css for classes? [09:50:37] [2/4] ```.blah { [09:50:37] [3/4] rawr: "xd" [09:50:37] [4/4] }``` [09:53:00] Yea, i tried to add a div class and did the class thing in Common.css and its not working 😭 [09:54:25] what did you add? there might also be something overriding it, check with devtools/inspect element [09:56:46] i dont see anything overriding it [09:58:34] and it doesn't show? [10:01:00] no [10:15:57] <_arawynn> Have you purged the site? CSS can take a while to show up [10:17:39] what CSS code did you add exactly? [10:19:01] [1/19] ``` [10:19:01] [2/19] link-box { [10:19:01] [3/19] width: 200px; [10:19:02] [4/19] height: 50px; [10:19:02] [5/19] } [10:19:02] [6/19] link-box a { [10:19:03] [7/19] padding: 10px; [10:19:03] [8/19] } [10:19:04] [9/19] link-box { [10:19:04] [10/19] background-color: #4CAF50; [10:19:04] [11/19] } [10:19:05] [12/19] link-box:hover { [10:19:05] [13/19] background-color: #3e8e41; [10:19:05] [14/19] } [10:19:06] [15/19] link-box a { [10:19:06] [16/19] color: #fff; [10:19:07] [17/19] } [10:19:08] [18/19] ``` [10:19:08] [19/19] its from programmingcube.com [10:19:17] link-box is not a valid html element [10:19:29] if you want to select the link-box class, you need to replace `link-box` with `.link-box` in the CSS [10:19:59] see also [10:20:17] says 404 [10:20:23] but ill do this [10:22:34] oops, should work [10:23:32] i see, thank you ^^ [12:06:25] Your opinion/vote is requested for the following [[Request for Comment]](https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Requests_for_Comment/Generative_AI_policy) [12:06:26] [12:34:37] does image width and image height work on discord for wikiseo? [13:08:07] So for claification, would this apply to all wikis? [13:08:59] Or is this only for Meta [13:12:39] While I'm not a fan of AI in the slightest, I feel like imposing such a broad restriction would not only be nigh impossible to enforce across even a fraction of all wikis, but it'd stir up a lot of drama due to the uncertainty of determining if content is 100% generated or not—this primarily goes for text. [13:14:58] It also seems to go against the general nature of Miraheze wikis being functionally "independent" (if you understand what I'm trying to say). While there are obvious rules and guidelines for wikis, this one feels oddly invasive? [13:15:01] the RFC is largely for all wikis except one of them for local [13:15:16] This is just my two-sense [13:15:24] I've just placed my votes down which largely endorse your two-sense [13:15:36] :p [13:16:09] but of course feel free to vote accordingly as that page is what will ultimately be tallied [13:16:42] [1/2] There are amendments too. [13:16:42] [2/2] They are less restrictive and based on Official wikis only [13:16:51] I voted on that one too [13:18:38] [1/2] Another factor (now this is entirely based on my experience surfing wikis and can obviously change with time), is I don't really feel like AI has been a problem for Miraheze wikis. Unless I'm unaware, I don't sense that there is an AI slop pandemic for wikis generally. And I understand the idea of getting ahead of the problem, but like I said, there just aren't the tools or presede [13:18:38] [2/2] nts currently to really enforce such rules. [13:19:44] It seems like something best left to the discretion of individual wikis/ [13:19:52] [1/2] The idea for this RfC was to restrict users in creating wikis only to fill with content completely made by AI, as well as adding multiple languages, they do not understand themselves. [13:19:52] [2/2] Everyone is responsible for their own wiki and text, and the chance that wiki text is presenting something wrong is increasing when you let users use AI without thinking about what text they get posting [13:20:25] Good start on the discussion. I'll post in the (minor) announcement channel too [13:20:27] I see regularly Wikirequests for AI stories [13:20:35] Hm, this is totally fair. [13:21:34] I'm not sure how to word this, but I feel like images are certainly the easier target to regulate. [13:21:34] <90gq29, replying to rodejong> AI stories? [13:21:51] I have the idea that most only read the proposal headlines unfortunately [13:21:52] Not only do images use far more server resources (at least, I assume), but spotting them is typically easier. [13:23:07] see, there is a bit of a gap between ai used partially to build up the wiki and if a wiki is completely and exclusively ai slop, the latter I would find far more problematic than the former but using blanket bans compromises a very broad valid use case for the former [13:23:21] Yup, "They ask the AI : Write a story and biographies for a wiki" and the AI spouts it out, and they post it. That's not how wikis should be created, as you never know whether its offensive, plain wrong, against US law, etc. [13:23:26] I feel like having a broad "no AI images" would be more reasonable simply in terms of being able to handle (for both wiki mods and Miraheze mods), and it's far easier to justify from a basic practical standpoint. Images have always had stricter regulations and they use more storage on average. [13:24:07] Storage is not even the problem. Copyright indeed is [13:24:09] I don't think a majority of the requestors know enough of this to say anything for sure regardless if hand written or they crank it out from a prompt, although the prompt is not encouraging [13:24:49] You underestimate them [13:25:00] GPT makes people lazy [13:25:31] I've seen enough of them myself over time to have arrived to my conclusion on that, gpt has replaced trains of text that may or may not even result in the wiki they requested because they decided they wanted to do something else [13:25:34] So, let's say this passes and all AI/LLM content is banned. Wikis with user bases would be able to enforce these new changes (at least somewhat). How would this go for single user wikis, however. [13:26:01] Just because I assume mods don't often scroll through every single person wiki to check if they comply (with how many there are). [13:26:32] it is an ongoing problem but imo gpt does not represent a decline of its own, I have a good example but it is bitterly political so I will have to table it [13:27:02] the otus is not and cannot really be on thel ocal communities to consistently enforce really any g lobal policy [13:27:32] wikis will either do their own thing regardless, have their own opinions in favor or against, or have limited tools to detect and enforce [13:27:32] Btw, semi-related I guess. Did that other bill for the queue AI pass? [13:27:42] yes, ai is utilized in the queue now [13:27:47] I have noticed that the queue has been shockingly short recently [13:27:58] `Write a story about a Miraheze volunteer that wants to prevent people from writing AI on their wikis, but other volunteers think that is restrictive. Let two volunteers discuss the pros and cons.` [13:27:59] [1/18] GPT: [13:28:00] [2/18] ```Volunteer 1: [13:28:00] [3/18] "I think we should restrict AI-related content on our wikis. It's a matter of ensuring our content is accurate and safe. AI topics can be misleading, especially when non-experts contribute." [13:28:00] [4/18] Volunteer 2: [13:28:01] [5/18] "I understand your concern, but isn't that a bit restrictive? AI is a rapidly growing field with diverse applications. Users might want to share knowledge and collaborate on AI-related projects. It could enhance our wiki's scope." [13:28:01] [6/18] Volunteer 1: [13:28:01] [7/18] "But think about misinformation. Without strict guidelines, we risk misleading readers. Not everyone can discern reliable AI information from speculative or even harmful content." [13:28:02] [8/18] Volunteer 2: [13:28:02] [9/18] "That's true, but we can have guidelines to ensure accuracy. Plus, AI is interdisciplinary; it touches on many topics our users are passionate about. Banning it outright might discourage valuable contributions." [13:28:02] [10/18] Volunteer 1: [13:28:02] [11/18] "I see your point. Perhaps instead of banning, we could have stricter review processes for AI-related pages. That way, we maintain quality without excluding potential contributors." [13:28:03] [12/18] Volunteer 2: [13:28:03] [13/18] "That sounds reasonable. We want to foster collaboration while upholding standards. Maybe we can create a dedicated AI section with clear guidelines. It could be a compromise between openness and quality control." [13:28:04] [14/18] Volunteer 1: [13:28:05] [15/18] "Exactly. By striking a balance, we respect both safety and innovation. It's about making Miraheze a reliable source for all types of knowledge, including AI, while protecting our users from misinformation." [13:28:05] [16/18] Volunteer 2: [13:28:05] [17/18] "I'm on board with that approach. Let's propose this to the community and see how we can implement it effectively. It's important to listen to everyone's concerns while moving forward." [13:28:06] [18/18] In this way, the volunteers discuss and find a middle ground, balancing the desire for openness with the need to maintain accuracy and safety on their wikis.``` [13:28:06] What's the new wait time looking at? [13:28:07] you can really tell when it hits a snag and it all goes manual again [13:28:21] Current backlog (oldest unhandled request) in request wiki queue is about 23 hours (13 requests). [13:28:38] the average can vary quite a bit [13:29:01] When people ask what I use and how to get their own wiki I typically hit them with everything I know about starting a wiki and this community. But I've been telling them to expect what the old wait time is 😅 [13:29:09] the gpt conversation presents an optimistic view on compromise [13:29:23] the old wait time is rather rare and again, only really happens when the ai is snagged [13:30:16] the big question for requestors is if it's automatically accepted or not, not is when it gets into wait though usually reasonable, especially because reviewers have more ability to actually chew the queue [13:30:54] I'm weary of lying to the queue for a favorable response and there have been attempts, but on the other hand it's not much different from saying something to woo manual reviewers and then doing your own thing [13:31:05] I feel like banning AI for wiki creation request is something that most (if not all) could get on board with. [13:31:20] It shows a fundamental lack of effort on behalf of the person requesting [13:31:22] I would consider that [13:31:59] It's already not allowed [13:32:00] And then I'd be fine (personally0 with banning AI images I suppose. [13:32:49] Then you get to AI text (the meat of most wikis) and that's where I get iffy on enforcement and detection and all of that. [13:33:16] But I recognize the concern of people creating wikis only to host chat GPT basically [13:33:17] "Please do not use ChatGPT or any other AI model: They are rarely clear or relevant enough, and increases the chance you will be asked to rephrase or explain in specific." [13:33:20] images I don't feel split far enough from text to be really considered separately [13:33:33] I think mr bob meant a flat ban and not just strongly discouraged [13:33:42] true [13:35:08] The split for me comes to enforcement. I can look at an AI image and (most of the time) go "ok, that's AI" and then if I was moderating a Miraheze wiki I'd be able to take action on it. I'm just concerned about people being accused or having their work deleted for false flags basically. [13:35:56] It's the same thing that's been happening in acedamia. Student's essays being falsely rejected and accussed of using generative tools. [13:36:08] for now they are fairly obvious, in the near future I expect that will not be the case and that is already happening too [13:36:23] plus I don't see as much of an inherent problem requiring policing [13:38:17] depending on the images and text at hand I think they both have a range from rather obvious (I get practice from spam chatbots on other platforms) to '...hmm', and the hmm is growing in both categories [13:38:32] but I grant the tells are easier to convey on images than they are on text [13:39:13] [1/2] Unrelated: Now that the queue is so much faster (for the most part), I wonder if we'll see a decrease in wikis with 0 edits. Not saying they'll be a decrease in abandoned wikis, but what you often see is that by the time a wiki is approved, these people have already lost their steam. With the wait being shorter, however, I wonder if these people will at least be able to get some [13:39:13] [2/2] basic edits in before giving up lol. [13:42:05] Their problem? [13:42:32] I'd just be surprised personally if someone can't even maintain interest in a wiki they requested only a day or two ago—at least when people were looking at anywhere from 5–10+ days there was a minuscule amount of understanding they had lost interest in the week that had passed; still pretty baffling though. [13:42:37] There are ampel examples on people working for monts based on a AI generated or Plagiated Thesis. It takes a while, but they are found out. That will become incresingly harder [13:42:59] that it will [13:43:00] There is a pull request I have to finish to implement something the community asked for a year ago [13:43:03] No, because we don't want wikis that are completely made by GPT [13:43:17] Fast track close no edit wikis [13:43:41] I'm suggestible to an idea of wikis that are head to toe AI generated being slapped down as that's a relatively clear distinction to make and leaves room for wikis to strike a compromise without actively legislating them [13:43:48] I skimmed earlier, none of the proposals seemed to state that intent of “soley AI” [13:43:59] I would agree with us being able to close wikis made by AI alone [13:44:11] What would the wait there be, a week, two weeks? [13:44:15] I would not agree with anything much more restrictive on local communities [13:44:27] Well I’ve had it open since October [13:44:41] ^ is a proposal I would likely support [13:44:44] But that’s a lot more me being a lazy ass I mean very busy IRK [13:44:54] I'm referring to how long it'd wait before closing a 0-edit wiki. [13:44:59] 💯 [13:45:02] Oh [13:45:08] [[DP]] [13:45:09] [13:45:30] 30 deleted [13:45:50] Yeah a month sounds fair [13:46:04] are there known examples of wikis (Miraheze or not) that are majority AI-generated? (I'm curious to see what that look like) [13:47:05] Not that I'm aware. Could probably catch some on Fandom though. [13:47:29] Has Wikipedia Wikipedia brought up this concern yet? [13:48:01] They delete ai generated images of real people. That’s as much as I’m aware. [13:48:26] Mayor of Lagos (forgot his name) had an ai generated image in his info box and it was very off putting [13:48:37] You gotta be a unique person to try and upload AI portraits to Wikipedia, just saying. [13:49:04] I mean, what would the use-case for those even be? [13:49:16] https://wikiportaits.org my beloved [13:49:31] Lovecraft wiki also uses a ton of ai images [13:49:32] Ahem [13:49:35] https://www.wikiportraits.org/ [13:49:38] But for ai text idk [13:49:43] [1/2] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Artificial_intelligence#What_is_Wikipedia's_AI_policy? [13:49:44] [2/2] they have some policy about it [13:49:51] Are they the guys that set up booths at events? [13:50:00] Yup [13:50:02] So people with wiki pages can retake their photos [13:50:11] I had a sticker of them [13:50:18] I need more for my new laptop [13:50:19] May have one [13:50:20] Didn’t know their was an initiative for that [13:50:28] It’s very cool [13:50:43] When i worked as a photographer at a convention I wanted to do stuff like that but none of the people there had wiki articles [13:50:47] I was watching a conversation about them yesterday in the Wikimedia NUC chat [13:51:06] Yeah iirc copyright or consent and stuff prevents wikipedia from using most "available" images of people online, which is why most celebrity pages have similar backgrounds. [13:51:20] Yeah [13:51:24] Because they all generally come from events, which I guess are ok to use? [13:51:45] Images need to be CC [13:51:46] They require the photos to be under a free license or public domain [13:51:49] Or fair use in some cases [13:51:50] Also means a lot of them are outdated [13:51:52] you also need someone to take a decent photo in the first place [13:51:53] Exception is for deceased individuals [13:51:55] most choose to sell their work [13:52:01] No? [13:52:09] The photo is still copyrighted until it expires [13:52:13] They use fair use images for deceased [13:52:16] That’s what I meant [13:52:28] I know Markplier's page is always the most random photo [13:52:35] I’m a photographer for Wikipedia, I know my way around their copyright system [13:52:41] Oftetimes several years old [13:52:56] The current image being used is from 2018 [13:53:31] https://commons.m.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:HerbertWithBozo.jpg#mw-jump-to-license [13:53:37] My favorite Wikipedia profile image [13:53:50] Do you know how this works when it comes to signatures? Are those just free for the taking in terms of copyright? [13:54:07] Because I assume they find photos with the signatures and isolate the signature judging from how the images look. [13:54:09] Signatures are typically graphics based off someone’s handwriting [13:54:19] Which gets a pass I guess [13:55:05] Is that used for both Bozo and Herberts pages :kt_smug: [13:55:29] Just Herbert [13:55:34] There like a billion bozos [13:56:33] That there are [13:57:22] [1/3] Clown history is a fun rabbit hole because [13:57:23] [2/3] * very few people care to document it [13:57:23] [3/3] * clowns like being mysterious [13:57:45] Clowns certainly are an eccentric species [13:58:20] Like lawn gnomes [14:04:17] wait really? omg [14:12:41] Why does the RFC look like this [14:12:53] Like what? [14:13:16] [1/2] Like this [14:13:16] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1372577579416162324/image.png?ex=682747fc&is=6825f67c&hm=573da346af7cd852f4dbec30f79c6064423338f0163349e863dc01debcf25acf& [14:13:30] I don't believe any other RFC is structured like this [14:14:22] True. It's a trial to see how it is received, as it makes it more clear what is what instead of a completely white page with a lot of text [14:14:57] because that's how Ro designed it [14:15:05] 😄 [14:15:11] it got improved a bit [14:15:17] i don't think it's perfect [14:15:31] Nothing is [14:15:45] i also don't really think most of the RfC is needed tbh [14:15:52] Why is the [14:15:57] Older archived RFC?

[14:16:19] Hmm, thats weird [14:16:44] eventually, we're bad at it though most of the time [14:16:50] Inactive wikis get deleted, but it’s after a pretty long time [14:16:50] Thats from Community portal indeed [14:16:55] that's weird [14:17:01] i didn't actually read the grey box [14:17:13] Well it's an RfF but still why is it centered [14:17:16] You should [14:17:32] I'll fix that [14:17:37] Reading this is really hard with this centered text [14:17:55] Pix was talking about making it so that wikis with 0 edits would be deleted faster iirc [14:18:57] Also the TOC is inside of the RfF [14:19:10] Which is legitimately like half of all new wikis, at least it seems that way if you scroll through the approved wikis queue (and these are wikis that are several months old). [14:19:48] Thats dependent of the skin [14:20:17] The worldbuilding ones confuse me the most. Wouldbuilding is a commitment, it’s not something you generally pick up for a week.

[14:31:45] No [14:31:52] Still Beta [14:32:18] it’s still mostly CSS writers job to fix any quirks like that [14:32:27] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/User:Rodejong/Drafts/Extensions [14:32:47] I am unsure how to do that inversion CSS [14:33:37] If it is active on meta, I would suspect pages on meta to work with it, simple as that really [14:33:39] I will ask around though [14:34:09] You choose to make use of a beta extension though [14:35:53] Not as far as I know, it just is there in the UI to swap, I never chose to enable it [14:36:36] I will just say we know our user base uses a wide variety of skins. And we know they all have their quirks. On that basis, I'd recommend everything on meta be as plain vanilla as possible and not make a lot of usage of specialized CSS specifically to avoid making it difficult for some users to access those pages. [14:37:39] ..pardon? [14:37:56] It's Beta [14:38:07] DarkMode the extension is in beta but not the actual built-in Vector feature [14:38:17] https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:DarkMode [14:38:50] Nice. How am I supposed to know that? [14:39:03] I would like to respectfully clarify that beta comes after alpha in maturity [14:39:03] I’m not sure [14:39:05] meta is best suited as a vanilla yet tasteful design for most things [14:39:22] It's better to just not comment so confidently when you are unsure [14:39:23] Beta would be more priority then alpha [14:39:32] I'm not against a custom format for RfC but ideally it is rather vanilla in most cases to ensure compatibility [14:40:09] especially as you recognize you might not be able to consider or be aware of all combinations; the dark mode extension is a major one, but if you've never sought it out it's reasonable you might not have come across it [14:40:35] I don't like it much though [14:40:58] except for skins that don't offer a light/dark switch which is already a niche case on meta, it should be avoided where there is a built in switch available [14:41:05] Notwithstanding whatever flavour of dark mode is being used, as Agent said, if you are using custom styling it is your responsibility to ensure it works for dark mode as well as light mkse [14:41:22] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1372584648378417222/image.png?ex=68274e91&is=6825fd11&hm=e8a07ea5fd6fe04e1b6c3fc0d4b338ffc8241c09a10039d2d076626a7de3d6ac& [14:41:30] that's pretty tidy [14:41:31] What's too difficult to read in this? [14:41:33] That just looks stupid but 🤷‍♀️ [14:41:45] that's a matter of taste [14:42:30] That is not at all, how it looks for me, if you look at the SS's I posted originally [14:42:41] Well, I have been asking for darn two weeks to give feedback! And no one did on dark mode [14:43:05] we have a bit of trouble getting comprehensive reviews on stuff like that when there is a lot going on for everyone [14:43:39] yeah well as I said you used the styling so its you who should ensure it works properly on dark mode, not anyone else. [14:44:14] That is not my fault. I have patiently waited for feedback and requested it several times. But you know what! I give up. You kids are really hard to please 😄 [14:44:57] built in dark mode for vector 22 really sucks on the main page [14:45:13] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1372585620861354224/image.png?ex=68274f79&is=6825fdf9&hm=f8f38d52998f8fd8e8d9c35b8f0cef6713a3edfb891ab020964edc64ba8367ec& [14:45:34] part of this is my content blocking glop so don't take the broken nav too seriously [14:46:46] not even seeing the dark mode extension on vector 22 [14:47:00] which are you using @gummiel [14:47:08] Its at the bottom [14:47:17] <90gq29, replying to rodejong> It's too untidy. Too many elements in one spot. [14:47:17] that's just it, did not see it there, but maybe I'm dumb [14:47:45] Untidy? [14:47:47] Whatever the glasses icon in the top right, next to my username is [14:48:12] Check again [14:48:13] <90gq29, replying to rodejong> Yeah you have one box ontop, then one large box and two smaller ones inside it. [14:48:15] going to have to do a logged out/split browser test [14:48:18] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Requests_for_Comment/Generative_AI_policy [14:49:17] layout of the boxes and stuff is another matter [14:49:26] [1/2] Okay the top box got fixed by that, but the actual important stuff, the descriptions for the actual proposals are still unreadable [14:49:26] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1372586677528166490/image.png?ex=68275075&is=6825fef5&hm=fe50796685c8fa2e4de7cd8d5a000196bfb12a8cdaab0af713226a1d56b30ad3& [14:49:45] Hang on [14:50:07] <90gq29, replying to gummiel> Page would probably look better with the highlights removed. [14:50:15] <90gq29> Cuts out the need to make them work in dark mode too. [14:50:58] [1/2] mediawiki if built-in dark mode worked flawlessly: [14:50:58] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1372587064486395974/LMUNl53.png?ex=682750d1&is=6825ff51&hm=989d093f9fe9d459304dbe8f52cf689e91889cf1acd071d041b43268847ac705& [14:51:22] (wherever i stole this from got a ps5 in there i have no idea why) [14:51:40] Sony will eventually remake the world in their image. [14:52:18] cant wait for the mediastation console to drop [14:59:09] Try again [14:59:43] Yeah, that works now 🙂 [15:02:50] Thanks for working together to troubleshoot, and thank you Ro for trying something new formatting-wise and working through feedback. [15:03:26] I also need some help to if you guys are able. I also posted it on phorge too. https://discord.com/channels/407504499280707585/1372090180596666450/1372579771917271140 [15:16:33] I don't mean to bump this, but I am unsure if the DNS stuff worked out well or not. [15:17:18] which wiki? [15:20:32] wasn't removed from our dns yet but your side was done [15:20:37] did you open a phorge task? [15:21:02] if not, i did it now [15:21:02] i did not, entirely forgot about it. should i right now? [15:21:08] nope [15:21:11] i did it for you [15:21:20] oh excellent. my apologies, its been like 3-4 years haha [15:21:26] thank you so much once again [15:21:36] dragdown.wiki is all good [15:21:42] appreciate it! [15:38:19] We really should have the discussion on wiki [15:38:24] Or at least mirror please [15:39:29] I do remember that being the overwhelming consensus during that discussion [15:39:32] I asked for that weeks ago, but if no one else answers than a handful, 🤷🏻‍♂️ I can only make a RfC on the feedback given. [15:39:54] ON wiki! [15:44:00] And most of it is based on NotArachams, Aeywoos and Raiddars. [15:53:24] 502 [15:53:36] [1/2] I also said on discord that my opinion has changed and I would no longer support the majority of proposals. [15:53:36] [2/2] The argument of global mandate on AI not being in keeping with platform norms was persuasive for me. [15:55:00] Point about not having the conversation on wiki is taken [16:20:15] What's miraheze's on policy regarding donations? [16:23:33] [1/2] It's not a strict policy, but this should be a helpful reference [16:23:33] [2/2] [[Donate]] [16:23:33] [16:25:50] wondering if they are asking about their own wiki receiving donations [16:29:52] Huh [16:31:18] thanks [16:33:02] there are yearly fundraisers [16:33:17] Is it fine to advertise donations to our staff in addition miraheze's donation stuff? [16:36:32] Of course, as long as it's within the scope of nonprofit activity [16:38:41] 👌 [16:46:20] Sorry, to clarify - are you asking whether you can solicit donations on-wiki for your own operations? [16:48:14] [1/2] In that case Kiju's guidance doesn't apply, the commercial activity clause of Conduct Policy would instead: [16:48:14] [2/2] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Content_Policy [16:50:54] ok thanks [16:55:37] in our case we'd only be putting a link to donate to our staff team, no advertisements or anything. it'd be to cover domain costs and other expenses that may pop up in our operations. [16:56:07] not sure if that falls under non-profit or commercial, but the intention is that donation money we get goes back into the wiki [16:56:17] that's not a commercial activity [16:56:41] It would be seen very well if you did something like [[Finance]] [16:56:42] [16:56:46] That's actually up to date [16:57:02] So users can see where the money is going [16:58:12] i've historically done donations through ko-fi, which publicly shows donations on my page (and for clarification—i'm the current owner of the galaxypedia). as for how the money is spent, i suppose we don't really document that. but yes i agree it would be a good idea [16:59:47] That sounds good [16:59:48] If it's going back into the wiki, it's not a commercial activity so you're fine [17:00:21] right. after some discussion with my staff it seems like we'd really only use donations for domain costs, so anything extra we'd give to you guys 😅 [17:03:18] That's 100% fine [17:04:34] Commercial activity is when you're gaining a profit from it [17:04:35] It's mainly targeted to stop buisiness' being able to gain direct or indirect profit from what they've put on wiki [17:04:53] So you can't have a wiki about Dell laptops and have Dell paying you money to say nice words about them and refer you them back to their store [17:04:57] We'd frown on that [17:07:38] Generally it's where it becomes an exchange rather than a donation that we start having a problem. E.g. a 'pay to play' scheme where users are paying for extra on-wiki rights or otherwise receiving a tangible good, e.g. a game code in exchange for a contribution. [17:08:27] can I get steward privileges on my own wiki? [17:09:05] Steward is a global volunteer permission, not something we give locally on wikis [17:09:33] why? [17:10:01] when I need supervisor or checkuser privileges on my own wiki, who will assign them? [17:10:18] The steward local permission exists because there's certain things that either can't be done or we won't allow Stewards to do via the global group [17:10:37] We do not permit local wikis (in most cases) to have local suppressor or checkuser rights. [17:10:38] You have to request CheckUser or Oversight via [[SR]]. It can't be done yourself. [17:10:39] [17:11:02] You can delete / hide revisions to admin level yourself [17:11:03] oh okay, thank you [17:11:37] Checkuser and OS require an NDA, Steward level election and a very strong case before they'd be granted locally [17:11:45] It's never been done in our history [17:13:04] There's exactly two wikis I can think of that would have a sufficient case to make, one of which did briefly have CU during the WT operational period pre-merger. [17:14:19] Which was that [17:15:19] Oh, AVID, of course [17:28:49] [1/2] Why is my table being obtuse [17:28:50] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1372626792434634883/Screenshot_2025-05-15_102421.png?ex=682775d1&is=68262451&hm=ddff8cb4d03414c82fdac7d239ebc92714de5495a260d4156deef14addf40d86& [17:34:38] Makes sense ye [17:41:51] How to disable anonymous users from editing my wiki? [17:43:57] <_arawynn> in Special:ManageWiki/permissions take the editing permission away from everyone [17:44:16] [1/2] okay [17:44:16] [2/2] thanks [17:54:31] Be sure to give it back to the User group though. 🙂 Otherwise nobody will be able to edit. [17:54:51] To avoid throwaway accounts, you can also enable "email confirm to edit" under ManageWiki >> Additional Settings [18:26:15] <.guardianx.> Anyone know if there is a working example of OreDict and Tilesheets working on Mira? I swear I'm following their guide to making a tilesheet but I'm also pretty sure I caused soem issues doing it [18:30:19] I’d suggest checking phorge for the wiki that asked for it [18:33:10] <.guardianx., replying to pixldev> Yeah I creeped the persons page and they didn't do anything with it LOL [18:33:39] <.guardianx.> All the other content is on fandom and locked behind pretty high permissions [18:41:22] <.guardianx.> ultimately I just wanna see if someone has the spoilers for it because I don't wanna read the source code LOL [18:41:37] <.guardianx.> well...don't want to for now [19:26:02] on the AI policy, I don’t really think it makes sense to have a site wide policy on it at all [19:26:31] I think wikis ought to decide for themselves and if issues arise they can be reported to stewards [19:26:43] don’t get me wrong I hate ai [19:26:53] but I think it should be up to the wikis [20:10:53] Is there a guide how to write vote in RfC? [20:11:25] I don't see anywhere to edit besides the "edit" and "edit source" buttons [20:12:01] Oh I mean did people just edit source their votes? [20:12:49] yup [20:13:10] Yeah, if you wanna indent, use `:` [20:14:11] omw to use two of them just to mess with everyone [20:14:38] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1372668521355546935/image.png?ex=68279cae&is=68264b2e&hm=928d42e9d64bfc5146bf32ced8ce10975bad558d15b5d74a424c5df17a3ad482& [20:14:56] 💀 [20:16:08] I choice the simplest one on AN [20:17:23] [1/2] There should be at least a template to edit votes.

[21:00:37] it's nothing or wide open yeah [21:00:43] No [21:00:48] you can whitelist pages [21:00:54] its just not fun at all [21:01:06] smh hiding the forbidden knowledge [21:01:50] How?
