[04:17:37] I had been thinking of rounge up a general group of local wiki people to test out new mediawiki versions to find breaking changes in CSS in extensions and other stuff to compile into a single page and send thaat out to people here, if I can get it to happen, will remember to check in the release notes of Cit [05:14:06] https://breezewiki.sharkgirl.ing/savelocations/wiki/To_the_Moon [05:14:08] huh, neat wiki [05:41:57] Did not expect to see racket [06:07:38] hello miraheze [10:58:49] https://community.fandom.com/wiki/Community_Central?useskin=apioutput [10:58:56] how to make fandom tolerable /hj [11:07:47] omg [11:39:12] you're joking, but i would actually use apioutput over fandomdesktop [12:17:14] You can also use ?useskin=fallback but they even added the left nav to that 🙄 [13:41:37] ewwwwwwwwwwwwww [14:10:22] They tend to just create skins for special pages though, for example Special:CreateNewWiki is a separate skin [14:17:39] Excuse me [14:18:01] Excused [14:19:29] Thank you professor [14:19:38] Also [14:20:04] [1/2] I am sorry for your loss [14:20:04] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/615786602454581249/1388886742341390356/image0.jpg?ex=68629d13&is=68614b93&hm=f6826ddd685ea9f3b58f742249f8563733f17ba4a4df3b86aab0a14cbd38c520& [14:21:24] RIP [16:34:56] [1/2] Preaching to the choir but how is fandom even supposed to be used at this point [16:34:56] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/615786602454581249/1388920682632708257/IMG_3714.png?ex=6862bcaf&is=68616b2f&hm=1250d9edd03793648b94b754a3ad5feeba211268f24a51f7d2f7d08e6da08ce0& [16:41:31] Yeah, the content to advert ratio is out of control [16:42:14] The transformers wiki has a gag article about this but it’s from like 2010 lmao [16:42:25] It’s gotten sooo much worse in the last 15 years [18:20:04] It gets worse every yesr [18:20:42] Probably a result of revenue declining [18:22:14] hmm 🤔🤔🤔 [21:41:39] I mean tell you what [21:41:49] I could probably whip up a quick userscript [21:59:59] there's a whole redirector extension lol [22:50:29] I actually like FandomDesktop lol [22:50:33] Weird take i know [22:50:39] Oasis was ahead of its time [23:49:29] I've entered my low-effort arc. I've been radicalized against Wikipedia and older independent wiki style of extremely complicated templates. [23:50:08] KISS? never heard of her [23:51:21] [[w:KISS principle]] (just because someone might ask) [23:51:21] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KISS_principle [23:52:11] Ugh. Yeah, that's how I started out my post-fandom wiki journey. Making the critical mistake of trying to make wikipedia templates work here. [23:52:45] It is a tremendous crash course in so many magic words/parser functions/module capabilities, at least. [23:57:09] Tbh the incident was realizing I _could_ make a single template using #Switch and #If for organizing episode information but just decided eh eff it and just made a bunch of smaller specific templates instead. Is it messier? Yes. Does it effect how the wiki looks and operates for readers? Not really. [23:57:41] This also sounds far less likely to blow through the expensive parser functions limit
