[00:00:37] [1/2] Was trying to reply a little "Np" to this guy's comment on a story they wrote that I complimented, and see the section where it tells me to enter the comment? Doesn't work. [00:00:37] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1555731261731901460/image.png?backend=b2&ex=6ac19724&is=6ac045a4&hm=47df03569b1285c2574e8acf1e33dbe69ebc06b50d3efc64055de529f2702d94& [00:01:22] Is other wikis dealing with this issue or is it just mine? [00:05:09] I can't make another comment either [00:06:11] the talk page works tho at least [01:32:03] [1/2] might be a your wiki problem [01:32:03] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1555754271482445904/image.png?backend=b2&ex=6ac1ac92&is=6ac05b12&hm=99d68cbfa24938b5911c427449f938126b69694f8640c7d4539bb2593b62f3e4& [02:53:24] a couple things I wanted to pop in to talk about [02:58:08] I'm trying to fix somewhat of a technical mess created when the wiki was renamed to be capitalized differently and later changed back, since the name of the Project namespace hasn't changed to account for it and going into ManageWiki shows that it still has the different capitalization [02:58:26] [1/2] I tried changing it to have the correct capitalization but got this error [02:58:26] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1555776011071783013/image.png?backend=b2&ex=6ac1c0d1&is=6ac06f51&hm=e325933933b9e7e21562d461bd3f9cec116670ab73690b772bd0c4f382f65f05& [02:59:21] but to my knowledge while the wiki seems to treat it like a Project namespace alias due to being the name of the project it is not actually set as an alias in ManageWiki [03:07:00] [1/2] secondly I asked in the [community portal](https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Community_portal#Miraheze_footer_icon) a couple weeks back about making the miraheze footer icon sizing more flexible like the mediawiki footer icon is to try to see how people felt (since I was not comfortable just dropping into Meta out of nowhere with an RfC) but I haven't gotten any responses and I am curi [03:07:01] [2/2] ous what people think of the concept [03:36:25] Try disabling the extension VEForAll in Special:ManageWiki/extensions [03:37:05] Can you drop a link? [03:39:30] That's a good idea, I think it can probably be done [03:40:53] Something like that would not really need/warrent an RfC, probably a +2 from Tech but I would say that's a pretty easy PR to make and mereg [03:47:40] to the managewiki page? [04:02:04] yeah [04:02:06] or just the wiki [04:06:07] https://tep.wiki/wiki/Special:ManageWiki/namespaces/4#mw-section-namespace [04:41:28] [1/2] would it be possible to notify users of this rfc? [04:41:29] [2/2] [[Requests_for_Comment/Reducing_Superfluous_Steward_Supervision]] [04:41:34] [04:41:55] I ask because I did not know about it until someone raised an issue adding comments in #tech [04:42:10] and I think many wiki bureaucrats would likely appreciate having a chance to give their input [04:43:03] particularly proposals 3 A and B [04:58:58] hi lovely peole [04:59:34] hi [05:00:16] I've been looking into this more and really am struggling to find where in the config files such a thing would be specified, since it's mentioned nowhere in the mediawiki documentation and doesn't even seem to be specified by MainConfigSchema [05:00:38] do yall know how to decorate a wiki like the nullscape wiki? but in red? [05:00:40] if I could look at the config files of like wikipedia or another wikimedia site it would probably tell me but I can't find it [05:01:13] yoink their CSS and/or wikitext/templates, but make sure to give attribution [05:01:43] how do i do that? [05:02:01] find a page you like the look of, hit "edit source" and poke around from there [05:02:12] look at any included templates, and also look at "common.css" [05:02:17] it might be in the interface css files [05:02:28] I'd suggest MediaWiki:Common.css [05:02:57] I'll jot it down, there's a few RfXes going on so I'll see about announcing them all at once [05:03:01] Hello, does anyone know the css selector for the new CodeMirror's highlighted section? [05:04:47] am I correct in my assumption that watching the current requests for comment category will result in notifications whenever a page is added to/removed from that category? [05:05:39] Uh [05:05:43] That's a wonderful question [05:06:06] I do not know the answer for sure but honestly I very much would wager not [05:06:12] I'd like that to exist but [05:06:56] @posix_memalign do you know? [05:07:07] fucked up my pain page [05:07:08] @super072824_12732 Watch your language. [05:07:13] you could test it on WTF [05:08:02] huh [05:08:17] Sorry I was replying to person [05:08:32] How so [05:08:36] I don't think that will help, since I've created categories on the wiki I manage (and added pages to them), but I've never gotten notifications about that. But I also don't get notifications when I edit a watched page, so it's a wash [05:09:18] Watched pages aren't notifications [05:09:28] i tryied to paste in a template that would make it look like the style of a wiki i like. but its now jumbled and a cant edit it [05:09:29] They go to Special:Watchlist [05:09:42] cuz im rlly new to wikis [05:11:16] Can you link to your main page? [05:11:26] seems they don't appear there [05:11:33] https://hunterswiki.miraheze.org/wiki/Main_Page its rlly choped [05:12:01] you'll need to add the CSS to your wiki's "Mediawiki:Common.css" page, not the main page [05:13:10] Mhm, the stuff you pasted in is CSS code, which is applied to the entire wiki from that page person mentioned [05:13:32] how do i acess it [05:13:46] Type it in your search bar or change the URL [05:13:49] https://hunterswiki.miraheze.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Common.css [05:14:04] https://hunterswiki.miraheze.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Common.css [05:14:05] lol [05:14:11] you also may want to open a thread in #support so this doesn't get buried [05:16:33] also I doubt that the Minerva skin is what they use, so I'd recommend changing your wiki's skin to match for best results [05:21:35] how long has it been like this [05:22:50] it has been capitalized like this for a few years but the project name's capitalization was changed to what it is now last month [05:28:16] i think the easiest fix is to remove it (so it becomes the default “Project” temporarily), save, add the correct capitalizaed form, save. this could fix the display issue but i'm not sure if it causes bad entries in the database [05:28:58] do I just blank out the space and save it or do I just put Project in that field [05:31:28] renaming to any different name should work. i think it's a bug of managewiki that prohibits you to rename a namespace (name or alias) to the same spelling but different capitalization [05:35:12] alright, that fixed it [05:42:27] relating to this, I would actually like to see notifications sent in regards to all RfCs that could have global impacts [06:14:03] [1/2] I can't seem to find parserfunctions as a toggleable extension?

[09:53:28] weekly [09:55:30] I think the intension at the moment is once every three days, but this does change with the beginning of the month as they're usually updated then. [10:21:37] No [10:50:49] JS would work [10:51:35] subst only works if the parser function works, so you'd need to enable string functions as honoka said [11:19:05] every 3 days i think [11:26:28] [1/3] how do i turn this searchbar to look more like the second with the images and matching letters [11:26:28] [2/3] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1555903858226634762/Captura_de_pantalla_2026-10-03_122548.png?backend=b2&ex=6ac237e3&is=6ac0e663&hm=0bf51d0dace838ea1b932a9f10580223979ba2ef9b7cbb41f5a9f406f6c1f42e& [11:26:28] [3/3] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1555903859593842778/Captura_de_pantalla_2026-10-03_005142.png?backend=b2&ex=6ac237e3&is=6ac0e663&hm=d15bda74a20ff3e6a7efa627c0ae18a01be749fa2b2a1876c6ef41fa554466f0& [11:37:07] don't know, there was a thread about this a while back but idr how wiki.gg does it [11:53:15] That fixed it, thank you!

[23:45:49] Yes, it's back [23:46:15] it was back for a sec but not anymore [23:46:20] It still down for me [23:46:33] yeah it went bvack to being down [23:46:34] I'm still timing out [23:46:39] Down again [23:46:40] When i clicked on link to other server just above it also was down [23:46:41] mine's still down. i was in flow state writing an article lmaoo [23:46:49] It was up briefly [23:47:23] i was just about to modify an abuse filter rule [23:47:46] I'm not even remotely surprised that it's riddled with errors again. [23:47:54] oh well, i'll just save it locally in the meantime then [23:47:56] yup [23:47:58] me when im editing a page and the site goes down before i can save 😭 [23:48:09] <.labster> Why do you build me up buttercup, just to let me down? [23:48:23] Was that supposed to be a joke? [23:48:34] I started writing profile page of an antagonist in a series when it went down so I blamed it on him /j [23:48:42] song lyrics [23:48:51] From where? [23:48:52] oh its back for me [23:48:56] <.labster> Kids these days don't know the classics. [23:48:57] if we all get together to take him down we can save the miraheze servers [23:49:02] he wanted to be a mystery [23:49:09] <18.748.837.46, replying to ketschker> i think it saves in cache [23:49:11] up again, but currently slow [23:49:13] Miraheze is conducting unscheduled maintenance on this wiki's database server. [23:49:24] [1/2] hi, sorry for the bad timing but does anyone know how i can fix the selection highlight on new timeless/code mirror? i cant find the rule for it [23:49:25] [2/2] also is there anyway to disable the predicted text thing? [23:49:26] I know some of the classics, but probably not the one you're referring to. [23:49:39] I think it's known enough that you could just look up the lyrics [23:49:57] <.labster> [[w:Build Me Up Buttercup]] [23:49:58] [23:50:28] didn't the 161 rebalance happen already? [23:50:29] Maintenance? [23:50:40] now it shows the maintenance screen [23:50:44] I was editing wikis 😭 [23:50:54] nope 😭 [23:50:59] I either forgot about its existence or never knew about its existence until now. It can't be both, obviously. [23:51:08] well, now seems to be a great time [23:51:13] <.labster> Huh, the song is 1968? It sounds like it's from 1964. [23:52:01] i was js about to enter dogumarus subchapter lol [23:52:03] Why do I have a feeling you were born somewhere in that era, based on some of the hints you're dropping here? [23:52:23] <.labster> nah mate I'm a time traveller [23:52:39] <7andromeda_> is the wiki down [23:52:48] <7andromeda_> sorry just joined [23:52:50] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1556091690790559744/image.png?backend=b2&ex=6ac2e6d1&is=6ac19551&hm=7e6e916b416e8d8b1423d4687408410695ecf53f527989b3937f2c365274a89c& [23:52:54] Oh....
