Well darn [02:06:00] Been here two minutes [02:07:05] Back up will be monitoring [02:11:03] taking my wiki as an example.. man i'm touched i appreciate it [02:11:15] also props to you for knowing this niche game [02:11:51] oh shit you made the pink valley wiki? [02:11:56] hell yeah bro [02:12:19] sorry if this was intentional (or it's in the works), but the service degradation post in #announcements hasn't been sent out to channel followers yet 🤔 [02:12:56] https://klipy.com/gifs/handshake-of-the-gods [03:26:34] slowly hides my 10k streak on the My Life as a Teenage Rabbot Wiki 👀 [03:26:46] that wiki's communitieswiki page is gigantic [03:27:30] I have like 50,000 edits on Equestripedia [03:27:31] 'Tis big as the moon. [03:27:38] It happens [03:27:51] Gee I only have like 1400 edits on MEta [03:28:18] You need more of a streak. Back into the wiki mines you go! [03:41:52] I have 2.7k globally on MH [03:44:41] I lost track on how much I have globally. I know it's not much. [03:44:57] Special:CA if you wanna check [03:45:08] Let me check. 👀 [03:47:24] I have over 11,233 global edits as of writing this. Wow. [04:06:49] 50 THOUSAND???? [04:06:51] HOW [04:07:25] oh, 43 thousand technically [04:07:29] But that's still crazy [04:07:35] same order of magnitude [04:21:56] I like my little pony [04:22:04] You know what? [04:22:08] I can respect the grind [04:22:09] :stare: no wonder its slows i think mirahaze datacenter out of water [04:22:30] And that’s just the Miraheze edits [04:22:42] we were independent for a few heads before that and I didn’t transfer edits [04:24:20] ... [04:24:29] Like, self-hosting? [04:25:41] We are hosted in Utah :shrug: [04:26:30] I wonder if anyone has ever been there just because of Miraheze [04:26:34] That would be kind of cool [04:26:43] But wouldn't be a lot to see, I suppose [04:27:04] I think the staff there work in shifts [04:27:05] Eh, Salt Lake City has more than most [04:27:46] But nah, I'm not sure any of tech has been / can even go into the data center [04:28:25] Wait, I just realized [04:28:37] John [04:28:42] the co-founder of Miraheze [04:28:57] John Miraheze is real ifykyk [04:29:06] In my experience you can go in the datacenter if you physically own the server, which is not the case with WikiTide [04:29:16] We owe much to John Miraheze [04:29:24] Mhm, it's pretty funny [04:29:34] No we do own at least part of it [04:29:48] The last round of server expansion was a purchase, not a rental [04:30:00] I'm told we even had WikiTide stickers on them [04:30:57] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1538767062548226168/image.png?ex=6a83e000&is=6a828e80&hm=22ade5bd665fdad27fe1149438af29f52cb3064733cadf2a273115df5a4b4202& [04:31:41] Really? [04:31:44] That's cool [04:31:51] What's the image? [04:31:59] Not all of these went through though [04:32:18] Image is the Director of Tech expenses part of https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/WikiTide_Foundation/Budget/2026 [04:32:34] Ah [04:32:47] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/WikiTide_Foundation/Budget/2025 also saw us buying the GPUs for local AI and some other expansions [06:34:26] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1538798139920748584/image0.jpg?ex=6a83fcf2&is=6a82ab72&hm=eb7b0651427ea286e7c86fe9686862b9b54773729e66890087b1592facae1d3f& [06:34:51] have you gotten this in any Miraheze sites? [06:35:18] I got that while editing on the My Life as a Teenage Rabbot Wiki today, mainly only just once after refreshing it. [06:36:47] yeah,so do that on my wiki [06:37:41] and it seems that some icons on issue-tracker site can't be shown now [06:38:29] If that happens, something's terribly wrong in the server racks. [07:14:11] im crying everything is down [07:14:25] i saw announcements 🕊️ [07:44:44] The world is not ending [07:47:03] You shouldn't cry when we're down [07:47:43] what if im very emotional [07:54:57] can u publish 🙏 https://ptb.discord.com/channels/407504499280707585/407504500136607745/1538729264252194967 [08:03:58] ^ seconded; please send it out so that those who follow the channel will get the message lol [08:04:45] ^^ Thirded!

I definitely should consider. Thanks for letting me know Rhinos [08:16:43] Hello y'all [08:16:52] Hi [08:16:59] Hello Leafy!

[15:06:48] Oh wait I’ve seen that one [15:37:58] I requested https://medialeitmotifs.miraheze.org to be made, but he found out that https://leitmotifs.miraheze.org/wiki/Main_Page exists, i am not sure if this falls under the Duplicate Wiki Policy, the scope is different, but the topic still overlaps. [15:48:01] looking into it, if it is deemed to be an issue, worst case, you could reach out to the admin of the existing wiki and work together on it [15:53:08] wtf??? on it. thanks for informing [15:55:05] Friendly reminder to do due diligence before blind banning user IDs because someone says so [15:55:39] true... [15:56:55] This ID was one of those included in the initial round of saying this [15:59:20] [1/2] Some user made a gist explaining the whole bot situation, I can't personally vouch for it all being 100% true or that Discord isn't doing sneaky underhanded things but in my experience being a Discord bot developer for nearly 4 years now, this seems to align with my understanding of how bots work. https://gist.github.com/TwilightZebby/df3f9e5f8ec20dd5d7ed2af [15:59:20] [2/2] e6ed13ebd/a1ca5b7fe03546069a6702d7e6750e2f46c73480 [16:00:34] Anyone got advice on merging two wikis? [16:00:55] How so [16:02:05] I’ve got a wiki for my novel and a wiki for my soap opera and since neither will probably ever be not private I want to merge them as one wiki [16:04:19] Could I just export the pages to the bigger wiki and then rename the wiki? [16:30:03] [1/2] (long time no see too) [16:30:04] [2/2] In half a year, I might become active again (since my university entrance exams will be coming to an end) [16:34:41] wish you bestest of luck on those, and look forward to seeing you around more if able [16:37:40] Sure, that approach makes sense to me. To cover all bases, I'd recommend filing a scope change request on [[SR/M]] just to make sure it's all nice and documented to speed up the domain change once you've got everything merge [16:37:41] [16:38:17] Amazing thank you [16:43:37] [1/4] So, basically our take is: [16:43:38] [2/4] * they're meaningfully similar projects but not on a specific topic, just a category of thing - no deletion is warranted. [16:43:39] [3/4] * It'd be nice if the two could work together, but the admin of the original wiki seems spotty in their activity and the wiki currently focuses on ~2 media properties. [16:43:39] [4/4] * If the OG admin isn't amenable to working together, is unavailable or there's too much conflict, a separate wiki is fine [16:44:25] ok [16:44:45] But should you ever decide to delete your project, [[SR/UD]] is where you can request that [16:44:47] [17:10:23] Is it normal for Minerva.css to not save on a newly made wiki? [17:26:10] if it doesnt save try putting the css on mediawiki:mobile.css [17:27:58] how do i get citizen preference settings to work [17:28:46] [1/11] this is what's currently in ``MediaWiki:Citizen-preferences.json``: [17:28:47] [2/11] ```json [17:28:47] [3/11] { [17:28:47] [4/11] "preferences": { [17:28:47] [5/11] "citizen-feature-performance-mode": { [17:28:48] [6/11] "default": "0", [17:28:48] [7/11] "hidden": true [17:28:48] [8/11] } [17:28:49] [9/11] } [17:28:49] [10/11] } [17:28:49] [11/11] ``` [17:29:09] it's not being hidden [17:29:41] how did corona beer company not go bankrupt because of the pandemic from years back? [17:29:50] [1/2] Yeah but that’s just for mobile devices then, Minerva skin is enabled for both desktop and mobile 🥰🥰🥰 [17:29:50] [2/2] -# we’re making a MovieStarPlanet wiki now 🧌 [17:43:44] 大学入学試験頑張って! [17:47:26] maaaan, i thought i fixed my popup issue but now none of the pages work [17:47:38] apologies for bringing this out here, but i really don't know what else to do [17:47:54] i have all the right settings now, it just doesnt work [18:01:43] the word “phorge” [18:01:55] is it “for-ge” or “forj”? [18:03:53] It's phoentically identical to [[wikt:forge]] [18:03:53] [18:21:22] I’m so wiki pilled i forgot the real word is spelled with f [18:35:39] LOL [18:35:49] shoutout to https://phighting.wiki [19:36:31] Do you mean you phorgot?

We frequently work with an AV equipment supplying company based out of Arizona named "COVID" [21:39:48] How did they land on that name? At least "corona" is a normal word that means "crown" [22:09:00] Hate it when a rando from a server I barely/no longer talk in comes and say hi to me [22:22:40] Co for Company, Vid for Video [22:22:56] They are the video company [23:14:29] This is introduced in 3.20, MH is on 3.19 atm [23:14:43] You can use CSS to hide it as a workaround [23:14:49] oh ok [23:34:07] [1/2] This works I suppose [23:34:07] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1539054750610366585/Screenshot_20260817-193311_Chrome2.jpg?ex=6a84ebee&is=6a839a6e&hm=1d94071622ae8c4fddc1ed787f975fd15388d41c2bea7dbb6372b8c496110a2c& [23:34:13] I'll probably have to make a navigation box once I'm done [23:56:55] 3.20 when
