[06:33:24] hi [17:28:10] !admin@wikidata Please stop removing me from rooms with the nonsense reason "IRC error on #wikimedia: err_needreggednick" [17:28:40] tapsuncar[m]: you need to have an account registered at Libera.chat to be able to join certain our channels (including #wikimedia). [17:29:21] i can send you an one-off invite (assuming that'd work over Matrix), but for long-term usage of IRC, an IRC account is definitely going to be needed. [17:29:26] tapsuncar: it isn't a non sens, it's a technical error meaning that you need to register your nick [17:29:41] or join via Element [17:31:03] Marc_marc[m]: !admin@wikidata Please register my nick [17:31:23] please stop using the wikidata admin stalkword. it is not relevant to this issue [17:31:30] you need to do it yourself, depending of the irc network you use [17:31:41] in this case, it's liberachat [17:32:02] libera's instructions are at https://libera.chat/guides/registration. I'm not sure how well those can be followed via Matrix (as I don't use it), but maybe Marc_marc[m] can help with that. [17:34:14] Marc_marc[m]: I'm using Matrix and I thought that I already had registered [17:34:40] you are using IRC through a matrix bridge [17:34:54] maybe the nickname you use is registred on the bridged irc [17:35:00] some IRC channels require an IRC nickname registration [17:35:14] or maybe you registered it, but you aren't logged in now. [17:35:48] Marc_marc[m]: So what? [17:35:50] do you mean that you already registered your IRC nickname? [17:36:10] or that you registered a matrix account that you are currently using? [17:36:31] 19:36 tapsuncar[m] is not registered. [17:36:37] this is what I see in NickServ's database [17:36:47] so the nick is not registered on the IRC's side. [17:37:58] if you don't register it, choice another nickname. if you are the one who registered it, authenticate yourself on the NickSrv [17:40:47] Marc_marc[m]: I can't find the NickServ [17:41:53] it's on the same server as this channel, so on libera.chat [18:46:27] !admin@wikidata Where's the NickServ? [18:49:11] nickserv is the name of the service. you can just talk to it by opening a query for that nick. [18:49:35] also this is in no way wikidata related. so please keep our valued admins out of this. [19:02:01] I don't think you understood me [19:02:01] did you or did you not record your nickname on irc? if so you should know where :) [19:02:01] if you don't know, then maybe it's not you and so knowing where it is won't help you since it's someone else who registered the nickname. choose another one [19:03:02] what does the [m] mean [19:03:19] many users seem to have it but not all. is that from irccloud or something? [19:03:31] Matrix bridge [19:03:35] ah [19:19:24] > <@marc_marc:matrix.org> I don't think you understood me [19:19:25] > did you or did you not record your nickname on irc? if so you should know where :) [19:19:25] > if you don't know, then maybe it's not you and so knowing where it is won't help you since it's someone else who registered the nickname. choose another one [19:19:25] Yes, I recorded my name on IRC [19:20:13] tapsuncar[m]: https://libera.chat/guides/registration [19:20:48] tapsuncar[m]: if you can confirm you did the "register" part before.. then go to the "login" part ^ [23:48:51] !admin@wikidata Is the room error being fixed? [23:50:28] s/the/err_needreggednick/, s/room error// [23:50:33] tapsuncar: stop pinging admin for irc stuff. You need to register your liberachat account. [23:51:01] try #libera-matrix:libera.chat channel [23:53:10] Lozenge: OK
