[01:10:20] I think an interesting use of MW for chatbot outputs would be if you wanted to use revision tracking to keep track of the chatbot's responses over time and how they change. Or you use it to help you with what's otherwise your work. I otherwise don't really think it's a good use of MediaWiki. [01:10:49] There are better, more inventive uses of chatbots [01:13:15] use the water that would be spent on loads of nothing on yourself instead #stayhydrated [01:18:53] I used to have my website on https://www.one.com/en/plans-pricing [01:19:08] Quite cheap actually for basic use [01:20:05] 10,76 USD for a .com [01:21:35] A ".info" costs me 1,40 USD [01:25:09] fandom using all the water for quick answers nobody asked for ๐Ÿ’” [01:47:19] Hey there. Just wanted to ask a quick question. There's been a sockpuppeting problem on my Wiki, and I need to know how to IP ban users. Sorry if the answer is obvious, I'm still not used to moderating a wiki yet lol [01:48:04] My wiki is still a very small community with little members and this is the first real issue we've run into. [01:50:24] if your wiki is an MH [01:50:29] an MH wiki [01:50:37] keep pressing enter too early :P [01:50:49] then that sounds like a task for @CVT [01:51:23] https://kaijudex.miraheze.org/wiki/Main_Page [01:51:54] Here's the wiki in question, it's nothing special yet and is still fairly new [01:53:01] If you're on the contributions page of the IP address, you can just block them like you can any other user - a more permanent solution would be to turn off IP editing entirely, whether that be by enabling email confirmation in ManageWiki/settings or visiting ManageWiki/permissions and manually turning off editing rights for IP users [01:55:17] I'll try this asap, thanks in advance for the advice [01:55:27] You're welcome [01:58:41] is there any quick way to delete all unused files in one go?? [02:04:55] Not that I know of [02:39:47] Many ways to do so. Pywikibot. Autowikibrowser (never used this one, but it probably works). [02:40:26] None of them does it with the click of a button, though, so there will be some learning curve. [02:41:50] Wiki mechanics have the permission to delete pages and you can ask them for help as well. [02:44:27] Actually, `python pwb.py delete -unusedfiles` should work. [02:55:49] never knew you can use awb for non wikipedia wikis [02:55:59] thats new knowledge for me :0 [02:56:39] [1/2] never used pywikibot [02:56:39] [2/2] might see how to use that [03:07:57] Aren't those the same as reception wikis and banned here? [03:08:05] I absolutely did not expect creating redirects to take so long [03:09:34] Sometimes you get a "could not create SSL/TLS connection" error when trying to connect with AWB so you might need to react out to tech for that one [03:10:00] Other API bots like pywikibot or mwn should work with minimal tinkering tho [03:11:20] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Help:How_to_set_up_pywikibot [03:11:51] imo bots are way easier than something like pywikibot [03:13:02] AWB has GUI for comparing diffs before committing which is its biggest strength [03:13:41] It's suitable for rote text replacement jobs and you don't have to learn regex (read: potentially fuck up with regex) to use it [03:14:05] AWB gives me less anxiety since i can manually confirm every edit [03:32:17] [1/2] figured [03:32:17] [2/2] so i guess i have to go to the #tech ? [03:32:23] tq! [03:45:06] #support or #tech should be fine [03:48:38] No - reception wikis mainly deal with attempting to explain why a product is good or bad through numbered pointers [03:49:35] Oh [04:10:38] Think things like crappy games, amazing YouTubers, real life villains (though this one is on the outer bounds of the category) and you're in the right genre of topic [04:16:01] worst reception wikis wiki [04:41:06] Dastardly Wiki Farms Wiki [05:14:36] [1/2] What does this mean [05:14:36] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1410130355075285002/image.png?ex=68afe5bb&is=68ae943b&hm=d8a59b8186861701ebf12cbd7f54511dccc92fc14d024eb3f83bb1088911b261& [06:30:01] [1/3] Heya! [06:30:02] [2/3] So for dormancy exemption requests, I just need to add my wiki to this page, right? https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Steward_requests/Restricted_changes [06:30:02] [3/3] And just wait for a steward to pick it up? [06:44:12] Ye [07:05:24] I haven't found an exact statement to it in the skins help page, is there a way to upload my own created skin. Or is the only way to request the skin to be available globally after the review process [07:08:36] second [07:08:47] you made exactly a skin extension? [07:09:27] or it's just a design mockup? [07:09:57] https://dev.fandom.com/wiki/UserAvatarLink is there a way to implement this in miraheze? [07:10:08] (minus the avatar image linking to a user profile) [07:10:51] specifically for userprofilev2 [07:20:38] @originalauthority [07:21:20] as of now im currently chatgpting this thing, OA can probably come up with a better solution for this [07:23:12] you won't have much luck w/ "ai-ing your way out" of new/niche mediawiki extension [07:23:44] [1/2] well it spitted this out LMAO [07:23:44] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1410162852127309884/image.png?ex=68b003ff&is=68aeb27f&hm=6c74e60420fc10c3e9a09f136ba7d2a8c497cd2a6d4ead790572fc6948850489& [08:23:09] i thought coco is globally blocked, why he has a say in requests lmao [08:44:42] He's banned from here [08:44:48] I don't think we've banned them on wiki [09:17:53] [1/2] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/User:PrimalRecoveryMelb [09:17:54] [2/2] What do you think of this account? [09:25:48] I was wondering about that myself [09:26:32] It's basically a page stating obvious facts. [09:27:07] But it doesn't take much to veer this off to a promotion page [09:27:26] I'm keeping an eye on it [10:03:56] I think they think that's their wiki @eytirth [10:04:06] So probably worth a message to them [10:04:12] If they've requested a wiki [10:18:18] does anyone know how to refresh Special:UnusedFiles? [11:39:59] Why does my wiki have a default language other than English for the interface? [11:40:17] Some people report it being in Deutsch, while I see it being Espanol [11:43:00] [1/2] And it's not some weird device setting either, even Google Search Console makes the interface show up in spanish [11:43:00] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1410228100922343444/image.png?ex=68b040c4&is=68aeef44&hm=13eabdf52c60829a0d6025d7d305d10d514500bd75429e12720ab9e7bbbb5fec& [11:44:23] are you using translate extension or language selector? [11:44:42] do you have different lang versions? [11:44:56] Nope, we don't have different lang versions [12:07:09] no i'm sure it also sanitizes unrecognizable css attribute [12:07:23] and its behavior is different from templatestyles [12:07:49] templatestyles only disables the Invalid line while css disables the whole css when it finds invalid stuff [12:11:12] why don't they just honestly put what:ThinkingHardMH: ever i write in
