[00:12:15] yes that!! [00:12:49] I'll bring it up to see if we can do it with bucket [03:30:01] how do i get political party colors to show up on election infoboxes [07:16:09] People will need context for what you're asking, what template is this, and what wiki is it on. [12:26:39] OK SO [12:26:47] I got some good news and bad news [12:27:30] [1/3] Good news: I managed to ask Synth if I can make a page of him on my wiki. [12:27:30] [2/3] Bad news: He said no. So now I'm not sure what to do [12:27:31] [3/3] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1533451174995300473/image.png?ex=6a708932&is=6a6f37b2&hm=819979444aad69e6546f90f78a7b5ea560d3cc86e9c4829f492acc0f027e4350& [12:27:53] You don't make a page about them [12:28:37] Oh no, I know. I meant like, I already made the hyperlinks [12:28:53] I'm just not sure what to do with them [12:29:29] Remove them [12:29:39] Why do you need other people's opinions in this [12:30:18] No clue :P [12:30:25] But yeah, I just removed them. [13:09:45] if you want to future proof it a little you can make a dummy page, then delete it stating there was a request to not have one, in case other people get the idea of making one [13:10:03] it can be enforced with abuse filter but this would probably be the lowest tech/workable enough answer if desired [13:14:31] That’s pretty clever [13:44:11] im super new to working on wikis outside of fandom, very happy to be here [13:44:53] Hiya [13:46:23] ill probably ask around once i get my wiki permissions but for now it's mostly just the menial task of continuing to cultivate correct and well sourced information [13:46:37] the source media for my wiki is huge and convoluted it gets really hard to keep track of [13:47:15] Mood [13:48:28] it already has a wiki but the reason this one exists is because it's kind of poorly maintained and based on years-old information that everyone just assumes is true because of how long it's been [13:48:38] Woah, I still get to- oh [13:48:44] it's in the midst of being ported and i don't know how long it will take [13:48:44] Goddammit Discord [13:49:32] so i'm just building up a smaller but more curated wiki in its place, mostly me and some volunteers [14:01:07] welcome [14:14:27] uh [14:14:31] anyone else getting bad gateway errors? [14:14:33] same [14:14:36] same [14:14:41] was waiting for someone to say something [14:14:50] https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/929807268994744340/1044824467370680330/redditsave.com_j19g505ebhk81.gif [14:15:03] i was waiting to send 'same' [14:15:22] everyone's getting that error? [14:15:32] maybe [14:16:29] came to check if it was just me getting bad gateway errors, and now can see it's not just me [14:16:34] Sigh [14:16:38] Looking [14:16:58] @Technology Team can some depool db161 while I investigate [14:17:22] Joined for help with this error! [14:19:46] @Technology Team scratch that [14:19:49] It's come back up [14:19:52] I think [14:27:47] sounds like fun tbh [14:29:20] a little overwhelming but fun yeah! [14:36:23] came back up for me too [14:36:49] Good 🙂 [15:12:02] I managed to get the error people were receiving. Apparently, they're getting a false error saying that cookies must be enabled for them to log in, even with them enabled. [15:12:22] What might be causing this...? [15:14:14] In other such cases I've seen people told that clearing cookies and/or logging into meta first can help. [15:15:05] I know, and I have a notice saying so [15:15:12] But I would prefer if the problem was fixed [15:15:35] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1533493474408534208/image.png?ex=6a70b097&is=6a6f5f17&hm=f5b3175f9205f47fcda8bdae9d0a7ad69fd688cbbd46a2227429f222bd673822& [15:31:15] So would we all [15:31:41] The error message is misleading [15:46:10] Oh [15:46:25] Then what should I do? [16:13:28] I want you to report and take down SpongeBob Fanon Wiki. [16:16:38] that is very vague and lacks the critical ingredient of a strong reason [16:17:17] broadly clearing cookies for miraheze.org should resolve most of possible login problems [16:33:51] It's a site with mentally ill content. Report SpongeBob Fanon Wiki. [16:39:26] not any more specific [16:51:47] submit a proper report to [[Steward requests/Wiki reports]] or to stewards[at]miraheze.org by email if you want to engage in something tangible, however note that 'It's a site with mentally ill content' is not a basis and will be immediately dismissed. Bring policy-backed references, or avoid the wiki you do not like [16:51:47]

[17:03:32] Template:Infobox election, on WikiBerlandia [17:13:33] [1/3] guess i'm gonna be enabling extensions today [17:13:33] [2/3] anything i should know? (or not enable?) [17:13:34] [3/3] also, should i just install [[mw:Extension:Thumbro]] instead? [17:13:34]

[17:18:20] [1/2] > Note that the latest version is located in the GitHub repo instead of Gerrit. [17:18:20] [2/2] also, will some of these extensions require me to download something? [17:18:57] <_arawynn> you can't download/add any extensions yourself, you activate the extensions provided by Miraheze [17:23:18] so all i gotta do is check a box? o_o [17:23:41] <_arawynn> mostly, yes [17:25:23] anyway to allow unregistered users to only be able to edit talk pages? [17:32:58] is there a downside to enabling a bunch of Extensions? [17:33:38] <_arawynn, replying to questioningespecialy> nope, though some need to be enabled by tech [17:36:57] Believe so yes, I think there’s a separate right for editing talks [17:37:09] May be wrong [17:37:15] Can’t check right now but poke around [17:37:26] i have create discussion enabled but it still doesnt let unregistered users edit talk pages [17:40:20] can someone help me with this [17:56:41] @tangoer_man: there's a few ways you could do that. You could tweak user rights for the `*` user group, change the namespace protection level in ManageWiki/namespaces to logged-in users. What are you wanting to achieve? [17:57:38] Second option might be the simplest, tbh, if you left the ability for anonymous editors to edit in all Talk* namespaces [17:58:41] could try that hold on [17:58:49] sure :) [17:59:27] the most straightforward path to only letting talk pages being available to unregistered users is to do it by namespace I believe since there is not the permission granularity to limit editing to talk [18:00:24] raidarr: yeah, that is my thinking, too. A more complicated path would be using the Comments extension, where discussion is by log entry rather than editing [18:00:25] though page creation is another story, but any gain you'd get that way is superseded by namespace protection anyway unless you want to layer it by ensuring no random pages can be created in namespaces you might create or miss by ips [18:00:59] yeah, could layer in an abusefilter, but that adds complexity [18:02:02] im only able to specifically allow interface admins, sysops, and autoconfirmed users to edit specific namespaces [18:02:28] hrm, thought logged-in protection level worked with ManageWiki/namespaces [18:02:36] Nope [18:02:40] may have to do a GitHub pull request to add a protection level [18:02:46] zammies [18:02:49] what's your wiki? I can do it for you if you want [18:02:57] Abusefilter is probably the easiest alternative [18:03:04] thechurchofthestatue.miraheze.org [18:06:12] feel like a permission for logged in users should already be included but it works [18:06:47] news to me too, logged in protect sounds like something that should exist on the namespace level then [18:07:26] kind of around that although probably a whole other project is a one button solution to limit access in times of major ip/account abuse that needs cleaning up [18:07:38] it doesn't take too long but it being a big red button might be nice [18:15:36] not sure what function controls its availability in the namespace protection level, hopefully that can be fixed in a future MW version [18:16:26] I've done the PR for you @tangoer_man, just needs a MW Specialist to merge it and run the script. Shouldn't take too long. These sort of configuration changes for wikis are usually done within a day or two [18:17:01] alright, thanks [18:17:05] np :) [18:17:13] https://klipy.com/gifs/fox-foxes-6 [18:17:45] once it's merged, you'll add `edituserprotected` to the `user` group, then protect our namespaces at that level [18:18:43] I always recommend enabling only what you need. Some extensions change the wiki interface in annoying ways. [18:23:35] how do i get political party colors to show up on election infoboxes, my wiki is WikiBerlandia and the template is Template:Infobox election [18:27:12] is [[Extension:Header Tabs]] even needed? seems like [[mw:Template:Anchor]] and regular headers suffice as-is [18:27:13]

[1/2] [18:27:13]

[2/2] [18:33:38] well, if you want a page to have tabs, then thats what the extension does [18:34:17] I might neee that [18:42:16] Darn... [18:46:17] so~ [[mw:Extension:PageImages]] isn't showing me the chosen image on the Page Information page like it said it would [18:46:17]

[18:46:49] What’s the error you’re getting? [18:46:58] none [18:47:12] i just don't see any sign of where it was supposed to even name the image [19:22:13] <.labster> [1/2] Okay, what's the deal with this. I clicked two checkboxes, and got this log: [19:22:13] <.labster> [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1533555539353534534/image.png?ex=6a70ea64&is=6a6f98e4&hm=140da1f6e2d7bac0b544294d9d136a7ff1f0fa05eaf208a04663dcbd2584fdcb& [19:23:06] When was the last time you changed a MW setting [19:38:23] Isn’t that because you made it that way in the namespace settings? [19:38:26] @.labster: ty and also it's been like that afaik [19:38:39] nope [19:38:46] Oh [19:38:46] Huh [19:38:49] Then I have no clue [19:38:53] And no money [19:38:54] And no food [19:38:57] And no job [19:38:59] And no house [19:39:02] its just not included by default [19:39:02] And no oxygen [19:39:08] Okay, then thats strange [19:39:24] [1/2] Uhhh [19:39:25] [2/2] Yeah no I can’t help you; I know less than ye man ;-; [19:46:05] someone is impersonating me on miraheze [19:46:37] and griefed a wiki [19:46:52] Could you provide a bit more detail please? [19:47:04] so theres this game that has a wiki [19:47:05] Vortex [19:47:11] and its called vortex fan wiki [19:47:31] and this user that has the same name as me, went and spread my name in bad word by doing alot of bad stuff to wiki's [19:48:08] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1533562062494498958/image.png?ex=6a70f077&is=6a6f9ef7&hm=171a23bb3182b9171190efb2241ced1cd11812f5028090337c2eb6f1e2afaf36& [19:48:14] is it possible to reset his username [19:48:39] Can you link the account and wiki please [19:48:52] https://fanvortex.miraheze.org/wiki/User:Kaazmaz [19:48:54] https://fanvortex.miraheze.org/wiki/Main_Page [19:48:57] If it’s a vandalism only account I’ll just explode it [19:49:13] nice [19:49:21] because alot of the wiki mods dmed me [19:50:02] and I dont want to be known as the griefer that impersonated me [19:51:01] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Special:Log?logid=1874587 [19:51:18] I’ll check in with the others if we can do something about the username remaining on the site [19:51:31] Thanks [20:07:39] ...dafuq's a griefer? [20:07:57] Disruptive person [20:08:29] Does anyone know how to style a tabber? I can't seem to find the classes for a tab that's already active vs an inactive one. [20:24:29] moment [20:27:07] [1/2] * `.tabber__tab` - inactive [20:27:07] [2/2] * `.tabber__tab:hover` - active [20:27:54] thank you, the :hover wasn't showing up in my inspection. [20:28:23] what browser u use [20:28:31] chrome [20:28:54] if i know right there is some button to simulate hover [20:28:59] in dev tools [20:46:08] is there a way to have text for editors to see that doesn't show on the Read page? [20:47:08] an edit notice [20:47:44] https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Interface/Edit_notice [21:15:36] finally got my perms, working on a real infobox template for the wiki [21:16:27] im doing this mostly in HTML rather than mediawiki formatting just because it's easier for me [21:18:36] @fauxhumanoid: oh, great :) [21:26:43] so just make a 'wiki/Editnotice-N' page if i want every editor to see it? [21:27:31] It should be in the MediaWiki namespace so MediaWiki:Editnotice-N where n is replaced by the namespace ID [21:32:53] also in the wikitext of MediaWiki:Editnotice-N, you could transclude a template name if you wanted to use as a specific template for that editnotice [21:39:37] actually i have an issue, for some reason the infobox's image is stuck at 300px no matter what i try to style it otherwise. the infobox is 270px i believe, so that makes it pop out [21:43:30] i tried removing frameless but it got even bigger as a result [21:43:39] hoild on tholugh [21:45:51] ohhh wait i see [21:47:07] i was using html syntax [21:47:29] image resizing with file is like a second thing [22:00:06] <.kwinn> [1/2] I have a lot of pages (imported via bot) that sit under a namespace that didnt exist yet. After adding the namespace and running the importer again a few days later I now have duplicates of the pages with uppercase names after `Namespace:` and when I try to list anything regarding that stuff with Nuke I get Fatal exception of type "Wikimedia\Assert\ParameterAssertionException" [22:00:06] <.kwinn> [2/2] Any idea why that is? [22:37:07] You know that if you block Miraheze I get blocked? [22:42:40] Who would block Miraheze [22:42:46] ????? [22:43:07] ????? 😭😭😭 [22:43:09] nobody is helping me [22:43:28] my good sis its best to make a #support post [22:47:56] done [22:54:04] huh? [23:15:35] what's the wiki? [23:15:51] <.kwinn, replying to thewwrnerdguy> pokefields [23:16:20] usually happens when it's been ages since you last changed your settings [23:18:37] hmm NS9594 looks suspicious [23:19:36] do you have a list of pages that need to be deleted [23:20:21] <.kwinn, replying to thewwrnerdguy> yea my thought was that creating the namespace and reimporting cooked some stuff so after asking i tried removing the namespace which shoved all the broken pages into Main and now theres a bunch of pages sitting in main that when i click on them apparently dont exist but theyre still listed.. [23:20:37] <.kwinn, replying to thewwrnerdguy> one sec [23:21:47] ah ok looks like you have `wgCapitalLinks` set to true but then there are some pages that are still with lower-case names [23:21:56] I think there's a maintenance script to deal with that [23:22:09] <.kwinn> How do I access that script? ^^ [23:22:16] <.kwinn> Or you mean on your end [23:23:11] <.kwinn> If you can please delete the pages with the names of "kanto %" . It looks like theyre in the main namespace now. I think they're what keep crashing Nuke and what got cooked by the namepace [23:23:17] tech team thing that I can run [23:23:47] <.kwinn> i didntn know i had to create a namespace first before i insert stuff in there.. learnt [23:24:15] <.kwinn, replying to thewwrnerdguy> run that pls :xsob: [23:24:59] okay I've made them all have capital letters now so hopefully that should work [23:26:20]
