[01:07:04] hello [01:37:29] i submitted an edit to my request and im js wondering how long itll take for an approval [01:37:35] uhh fuck i pressed the abandon button thinking it would explain what that means BEFORE letting me abandon it [01:47:16] @yeahmanimbigpoe Watch your language. [01:47:20] oops [1/4] I hope things go well! We moved to Miraheze in August 2025 (small fanon wiki, big community Discord server) because we got tired of Fandom and their policies, especially their controversial AI tactics. So, I made a poll on the wiki's server, the Bunny Burrow, on where should we move. The results were in with an overwhelming positive for Miraheze, and I m [02:25:59] [2/4] ade a full XML dump of the wiki spanning from 2022 to when I made the dump and uploaded it to my Google Drive. It was too big to be uploaded onto Miraheze via its specialized import page, so I had to make a Phorge task on it. Images and everything was imported fully and had to fix up some modules, clear out the Fandom-specific CSS, Javascript, etc., and [02:25:59] [3/4] gave the wiki a full makeover. [02:26:00] [4/4] ...I yap too much. [04:00:25] hello I have a question! [04:00:49] I tried to interwiki link Wiktionary using [[wikt:]] [04:00:50] [04:00:55] it doesn't seem to work [04:01:31] but for Wikipedia [[w:]] does work [04:01:32] [04:03:04] I wrote [[wikt:love]] but instead it directed me to _my_ wiki with the page name of "Wikt:love" [04:03:04] [04:43:28] how'd you get the images over from fandom? i've been looking for image scrapers but couldn't find any. [04:48:32] <.labster, replying to breakfastinger> That's weird. It's a global interwiki prefix https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Special:Interwiki. Look at Special:Interwiki on your wiki and you should see it, I hope. [05:20:41] is there a way to have gadgets minify when delivered? for example if we want to use a big gadget and keep it readable, but be minified when delivered to user. [06:23:23] Why do you want it minifying? [06:23:38] faster page loads [06:24:07] like if we gonna add like 20 gadgets totally 2 MB it's gonna make a difference if they are minifed <1MB [06:25:57] One thing you can do is to limit gadget loading to pages with certain categories. I suspect that most of these gadgets are unnecessary on most pages. [06:27:00] (it's under https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Gadgets#Options) [06:27:06] Optimising other ways is going to be the answer [06:28:04] Back in 2013, Lego said that gadgets should be minifed if using resource loader though [06:28:09] Actually https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Template_gadgets#Create_a_new_template_gadget has a pretty good guide [06:30:10] So if you've not marked it as compatible with resource loader, do that [07:03:30] I downloaded all of what I didn't have on my computer and compiled everything into a single separate ZIP file when the wiki was in the process of being migrated to Miraheze. I had a plan. [07:07:49] There's https://github.com/saveweb/wikiteam3, and we can also run it ourselves for you, provided the wiki is still accessible. [07:13:18] does anyone here have any species taxonomy templates [07:13:31] like the ones you've seen on wikipedia [07:27:24] I tried downloading it, yet in cmd it says that wikiteam3dumpgenerator isn't command even tho i downloaded em [07:35:10] Did you run `pip install wikiteam3 --upgrade`? [09:12:19] is there a way to use flag icon [09:15:05] [[dev:template:flag icon]] [09:15:06] [10:53:13] ResourceLoader already minifies gadgets [10:53:18] aight aight I'll check [10:53:34] it's just simple whitespace and comments removal [10:55:36] what extra minification would you be expecting? [10:56:58] smaller size = faster page loads [10:59:34] as I said, resourceloader already makes stuff smaller size [10:59:53] <90gq29> #cvt ignore tryna find channel [11:05:41] okay [11:05:58] only those things though? [11:06:07] cuz if I slap raw js it's gonna load it's pretty much the same [11:06:15] or am I wrong? [11:09:20] @aliser I would focus on what you can control tbh [11:09:38] what does that mean 😭 [11:10:02] Focus on things like making sure gadgets are only called on pages they are used and you've wrote your code well [11:10:39] Improving resource loaders minification is a job for wmf performance [11:10:53] I mean obviously. just trying to get a better understanding how they work under the hood so that we dont end up with 10 second page loads [11:11:09] Are you getting 10s page loads? [11:11:17] we did decide to not minify our code and only use minifed code from trusted sources like dev wiki gadgets [11:11:25] no [11:11:37] Then don't worry about it yet [11:11:49] If you start getting pages take multiple seconds to load, raise it then [11:12:01] I think you're over worrying about something that probably isn't a problem [11:12:20] okie dokie you got it boss :dune_stare: [12:49:49] Honestly [12:50:14] Whats the difference between
,
, and
[12:52:57] hi @pskyechology. could you make an image dump for [[fandom:monkeyraft]]? need it for a new wiki i'm making [12:52:57] [12:53:43] i think its already archived at https://archive.org/details/wiki-monkeyraft.fandom.com-20260706 [12:54:08] Oh nice I didn't know you did it already [12:54:14] thank you [13:42:40] [1/2] They all output the same thing (a linebreak). The difference is that
is HTML and
is XHTML (which has stricter syntax rules). Since
didn't function with XHTML but
worked with both, during the XHTML -> HTML transition,
was recommended. Nowadays, though, most modern browsers just support HTML outright, so the slash is pro [13:42:40] [2/2] bably no longer necessary. Some old websites still use it though. [13:48:35] I'll try it out. Prolly won't need to run it for a bit, though, but thanks. [14:40:11] Test [14:40:14] Huh [14:40:19] Its my own connection [14:40:27] I thought the web is down again [14:41:28] 😭❓ [14:42:38] NOOOO MY EDIT [15:55:29] whitespace and comments will be a significant amount of the size of any js file, removing them will already give you significant enough size reduction
