[00:42:51] So today I learned missing the # from the hex code when setting a color in styling breaks the entire theme, good to know [01:23:19] Asking for a friend, but if a wiki is posting false aligations of you, inculding as exterme to make you look like a pedo, and youve reached out to the team behind it and they only mock you or ignore you, would that be good reason for Miraheze to take down the wiki? [01:27:00] That sounds like something to contact trust and safety about imo https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Trust_and_Safety [01:27:34] appericate it! [01:27:43] Yw! [01:57:25] [1/2] Head of trust and safety here, yes, please either use the email or portal link included on that page and we'll look into it. [01:57:25] [2/2] Can't promise the wiki will be removed in full, but we take serious false/unsubstantiated claims seriously and will investigate [02:16:30] The Maps extension is never coming back, is it? [04:32:11] None of it's working 😭 [04:33:22] [1/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1547827367366369370/IMG_3480.png?ex=6aa4d611&is=6aa38491&hm=7e574f27530f13ad95abe0d9ccb0d4178ccf1150d39bbe7a5ea4055658638b2b& [04:33:22] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1547827367635066940/IMG_3481.png?ex=6aa4d611&is=6aa38491&hm=4ce3127ba7833273718e6fe8d842dd82f6f8e90ec4a594d5418393da1dcaf0e9& [04:33:27] Idk if I'm doing something wrong but agdjjwhd [04:42:19] It might be because I downloaded the wikipedia color box template?? Genuinely not sure [08:24:39] *pops in prompted by Phorge e-mail with update to future temporary account setup deployment on Miraheze to show appreciation for further work on that* [10:30:20] [1/3] Hey we are getting weird things happening on our Analytic page. [10:30:21] [2/3] First off we had an unusual spike in wiki traffic in the past 7 days. [10:30:21] [3/3] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1547917204345983006/2026-09-10_22_29_06-Wiki_analytics_-_1d6chan_Mozilla_Firefox.png?ex=6aa529bc&is=6aa3d83c&hm=ba06a3f4aa63d32309a2a1692bd95aabd6984501224982b69842f67943a6c301& [10:31:02] [1/2] It appears like someone is searching for ip addresses in the past days. [10:31:02] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1547917379462500493/2026-09-11_06_19_06-Wiki_analytics_-_1d6chan_Mozilla_Firefox.png?ex=6aa529e6&is=6aa3d866&hm=7ab7f9ca47461874a813e08510e87d2e00f4819c619ef4bc7057bfc5a1934763& [10:33:11] [1/13] And we are getting a huge amount of error and weird page hits. Such as: [10:33:11] [2/13] Abuse filter log - 1d6chan [10:33:11] [3/13] 6477 [10:33:11] [4/13] Permission error - 1d6chan [10:33:12] [5/13] 1424 [10:33:12] [6/13] User rights - 1d6chan [10:33:12] [7/13] 919 [10:33:13] [8/13] Error - 1d6chan [10:33:13] [9/13] 820 [10:33:14] [10/13] Uncategorized files - 1d6chan [10:33:14] [11/13] 406 [10:33:15] [12/13] Error - 1d6chan [10:33:15] [13/13] 820 [10:33:33] Is this something to be concerned with? [10:33:44] I'd guess it's scraping or something? [10:35:00] Ok that was a thought of mine. But it is weird that it is checking user rights and other security stuff [10:35:05] Problem is I'm not entirely sure what you can do about it if it is. [10:35:41] Ye, definitely odd. [10:35:51] No prob, just wanted to ask if anyone has seen this or similiar activity before [10:36:11] Last thing I need right now is a security issue [10:37:52] I'm just guessing, to be clear. [10:38:45] It's mainly that I can't see any other reason for hundreds of special page visits, if it's about looking for vulnerabilities then a few would likely be enough. [10:43:00] It is really weird that ip addresses were searched in the search bar though. But if you or anyone can think of something else (at) me. [10:43:11] Thanks for your help. [10:47:35] Adding onto this, how do I make my site have a gradient background? [11:02:48] [1/3] one of my users runs into having this issue which i dont see, is this because the account is new? There's no feedback given to the account when this happens, and I would like to change it so that the editor understands what is going on [11:02:48] [2/3] >>> you might be getting the same bug as me: if the page includes a link, submitting won't do anything [11:02:49] [3/3] so you can remove the link, create the page, and then edit it back in [12:38:15] That's because of captchas. If you give them the Confirmed user group on your wiki, it should fix the issue. [12:38:42] That or they need to make I think it's 10 edits and they'll get autoconfirmed which does the same thing. [12:39:45] @lynn.in pinging because I forgot to make the message a reply. [12:43:57] If you could open a #support thread with a link to your wiki (#verify to send links) so this doesn't get lost in the shuffle, that would be great [12:45:08] Ahh [12:45:55] Do you know how to set it so that a warning shows up? [12:53:13] A warning? [12:54:13] [1/2] What type? [12:54:13] [2/2] (Sitenotice, Template like {{Global Policy}}, etc) [12:54:14]

[12:54:48] {{Global policy}} [12:54:49]

[12:55:25] Or do you mean one that pops up when you start editing stuff? [12:55:34] In that case I haven't a clue, I'm afraid. [13:32:59] Not really [13:33:27] Scrapers will follow every possible link although we've tried to discourage them from ending up on special pages, some still will [13:45:26] Ah, it's alright, I'm getting help from someone who helped me another time :) [13:45:44] Nice! [13:54:46] it's not "never", but it has been banished to the eternal security review backlog. You can see the full list at [13:55:25] So essentially never, then [14:37:21] Basically my issue is that there wasn't anything to inform the editor "hey this is what you're doing wrong when creating the page" so they just got confused [14:38:13] [[Help:Creating a page]]? [14:38:14]

[14:38:32] Huh [14:39:32] [[Help:How to create a new page]] [14:39:34] Maybe [14:39:38]

[14:39:45] Ye, that's the one. [14:41:19] You'll need to be more specific, it's quite hard to work out both what the issue is and what kind of notice you want. [14:43:49] Let me rephrase then [14:47:17] [1/2] Basically, the situation I'm describing -- a new account creates a page with a link in it, and then they go to hit save changes. From what I understand, no system message popped up, and they just got sent back to the editing screen. I'm looking for a way to tell the account, "hey, this edit contains a link, you'll need more edits to be able to do this prop [14:47:18] [2/2] erly" on the editing screen instead of just the save not going through with no indication what went wrong. [14:48:48] [1/2] Oh, I see. In fairness it is a bug that the captchas are incompletable. [14:48:48] [2/2] But also, if they're using wikilinks rather than writing them out they won't get served a captcha even below that bar. [14:50:25] [[Special:RequestWiki]] versus https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Special:RequestWiki, for example. [14:50:26]

[14:50:57] They're external links alas [14:51:17] But sounds like it's more of a captcha issue [14:51:33] In which I will simply just stick to "let them know why the edit didn't work" [14:52:48] T13532, unfortunately. [14:53:04] -# I don't know how to link Phorge tasks. [14:54:41] https://issue-tracker.miraheze.org/T15139 [14:54:42] found it [14:54:44] tyty! [14:56:04] think this'll be sufficient for me to explain to people [14:56:05] But ye, that sounds like you want a notice that pops up when an editor is opened for users without the autoconfirmed group. [14:56:22] Unfortunately that's probably JavaScript and I've no idea how to do it. [14:57:53] Nah that's all good, thank you for the help [14:58:06] No problem [14:58:07] It's given me a good idea of what direction to take with helping users [15:48:51] [1/2] is there a way to force refresh the cache? [15:48:51] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1547997351937839154/image.png?ex=6aa57461&is=6aa422e1&hm=58d89be955e9e9492d763d24f870b637a6c5b57413a7668bebe54430f6626534& [15:52:44] You can create a page at MediaWiki:Newarticletext [15:53:39] which will display at the top (in source) or as a info popup (in visual) whenever a new user is trying to create a page [15:59:08] This process runs every couple of days iirc, check back tomorrow or the next day [16:01:05] Yeah. Once every 3 days, so you can predict the next time it refreshes based on the timestamp on top. [16:10:01] what wiki [16:12:21] I don't think there's any harm in just running updateSpecialPages on request, misermode is only enabled because generating the full list on every request would be insane [16:29:51] [1/3] In the Vector 2022 search bar (CirrusSearch enabled if that matters) - is making an image show up here a PageImages thing or? Something else? [16:29:51] [2/3] (For these pages, the only associated image is in an infobox, which I presume is why it isn't showing up) [16:29:51] [3/3] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1548007660245229618/image.png?ex=6aa57dfa&is=6aa42c7a&hm=3f836e647fb10b5ab8b92cea22ed212c11f96bb03092128d39c3cdcecb8d26b2& [16:33:26] what's it stalled on now? [16:34:10] seems [[phab:T13532]] says it's stalled on [[wmfphab:T356599]], but the latter was closed as resolved in june [16:34:11]

[2/2] [16:35:40] > Just tested ConfirmEdit on Mirabeta which runs 1.46 and this issue is not resolved. We may need to backport some patches again. [18:46:14] [1/2] Hello. If someone has time, can they take a look at this extension request? thanks. [18:46:14] [2/2] https://issue-tracker.miraheze.org/T15979 [22:26:49] yo i added the plugin onmy own swerver and dontknow hwo to build any planes or ships or tanks [22:26:59] can somoen help? [22:45:27] you are probably in the wrong server. this is the discord server for Miraheze, a wiki host [22:51:52] Does anyone know how you make title source text centred in an infobox? [22:52:41] oh wups [22:52:45] txh [22:52:47] thx [22:53:14] [1/2] Currently leans to the left and I can't find anything anywhere on how to fix it [22:53:14] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1548104159415238676/image.png?ex=6aa5d7d9&is=6aa48659&hm=483ad0307ab24cfd68bdbda5d09883dcd89ea94d9337eaa39af321b696acc5e5& [23:04:50] usually just `text-align: center;` [23:04:58] if that doesn't work, please link the wiki [23:09:02] Probably doing it wrong, but I just get errors with that [23:09:10] https://rrfanseries.miraheze.org/wiki/Template:Character if you'd like to look for yourself [23:12:33] portable infobox styling needs to be done using actual css files. I'd recommend going to special:managewiki/extensions and enabling [[mw:extension:templateStyles]] and [[mw:Extension:TemplateStylesExtender]], then using TemplateStyles to style the infobox [23:12:34]

[1/2] [23:12:35]

[2/2] [23:22:22] Okay dokey, looks like I'm delving into that then
