[00:06:09] IIRC the one hangup with ko-fi is that it does require creating an account to donate, which is the same as github sponsors [00:06:35] Or maybe that was just for recurring [00:07:05] Yeah, that's only for recurring [06:11:23] how would i go about setting up the [templatedata]() extension ? im a bit confused by the instructions [06:13:18] [1/2] there must be a button in the corner iirc, and there will UI where you add parameters and give them names, description, etc [06:13:19] [2/2] after saving there will be a table in documentation part, w/ all the stuff you've made, and template will work in visual editor w/ the same data [06:14:20] so i dont need to download it tho yea ? [06:14:25] it's recommended to have documentation and thus templatedata separately from template as subpage [06:14:51] no, all extensions available on Miraheze are already installed, you just need to enable in admin menu aka Manage wiki [06:14:58] gotcha thanks [06:15:18] if you wanna you can check some template of Dev Wiki which have template data [06:15:45] [1/2] like, how they gonna look/work in the end [06:15:46] [2/2] but in source code template data is presented in JSON [06:16:06] also can we remove slow mode now lol [06:17:23] ^ [06:18:41] woo [08:35:20] is anybody able to visit this wiki: https://chobots.wiki [08:36:26] [1/2] Error 1014 [08:36:26] [2/2] CNAME Cross-User Banned [08:36:40] yeah same here [08:37:44] I wonder if it is something that a MH volunteer could fix [08:37:58] I see this issue only on this wiki, any other wiki is fine [08:54:17] @rhinosf1 ^ [08:56:34] Hi [08:56:47] @reception123 turn off slow mode please [09:00:12] I can get that fixed in a moment. Not sure why it was missed. [09:00:36] tbh I'm currently checking for activity of gaming wikis I have listed [09:03:37] It's ok, it's 100% my fault [09:11:37] it's ok [09:28:00] @justleafy2003 please ask the wiki's owner to contact us [09:29:23] the wiki is working now [09:29:51] Wait, when did this channel have slowmode [09:30:01] it is not [09:30:12] it was added earlier when the downtime happened [09:30:19] Ah [09:30:20] to me, it is fine [09:32:20] doing curl -v https://chobots.wiki/wiki/Main_Page --connect-to chobots.wiki:443:rainverse.wiki feels so cursed [09:35:26] RhinosF1: mind if i ask the bureaucrats of chobots.wiki to contact miraheze through their meta talk pages? [09:35:56] nvm not working anymore [09:39:44] also, what do you need them for? [09:47:49] BlankEclair: yes that's fine [09:49:54] is relay bot affected by slowmode too lol [09:58:07] I don't think it should [10:01:29] MirahezeRelay doesn't have neither ManageChannels nor ManageMessages so MirahezeRelay also affected [10:03:17] [1/2] I've let them know [10:03:17] [2/2] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/User_talk:BrockSexton#Regarding_the_Chobots_Wiki [10:20:52] They need to contact tech and we'll help them [10:21:26] alright [10:23:14] (why do they need to contact tech?) [10:27:33] BlankEclair: I guess something something CF specific, similar to way WikiTide works before merging back [10:28:50] Afaik they will have to use a custom CNAME challenge to get their domain to work [10:36:04] ah, correction: they will have to put another CNAME record, specifically for their domain so that it will connect to the CF-based infra [10:58:19] BlankEclair: see dm [10:58:22] PiscesXYZ_: nope [10:58:28] We migrated everyone automatically [11:17:46] is there a way to change my wiki margin so the content is smaller [11:18:17] [1/2] Also what exactly is {{{value}}}? [11:18:17] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Template:%7bvalue [11:18:17] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1281211799143972986/image.png?ex=66dae4f8&is=66d99378&hm=5b5ba82dab153c2864e4c53bc3419ec31d7e189b5138637e903523a0fee6dbf1& [11:18:31] Can't I just edit the label normally? [11:20:16] [1/3] oh, found some example by accident - like that [11:20:16] [2/3] https://loathsomecharacters.miraheze.org/wiki/Enshin [11:20:16] [3/3] Their page is a lot smaller [11:22:14] [1/7] {{{value}}} is what you use to fill in the infobox later [11:22:14] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Template:%7bvalue [11:22:14] [2/7] for example, if you change the label to "Name" and the source parameter to "name" (which displays like "{{{name}}}", later when you use the infobox on a content page you use [11:22:14] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Template:%7bname [11:22:14] [3/7] ``` [11:22:15] [4/7] {{Infobox [11:22:15] [5/7] |name = John Doe [11:22:15] [6/7] }} [11:22:16] [7/7] ```to set the name to something [11:22:50] Thank you [11:23:05] Could you help me with that? This has this 'fandom' look [11:23:15] Some skin? how do I go and get this? [11:23:20] are you using the cosmos skin? [11:23:29] nah [11:23:42] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1281213163936940075/image.png?ex=66dae63e&is=66d994be&hm=1d2b97eaa56bdfb8cfe608a4ff7d371290dc0c51f9d9fc9be968694938dbab1d& [11:23:44] go to managewiki extensions, turn on the cosmos skin, and then go to managewiki settings and set cosmos as the default [11:24:30] btw how long can my wiki be private [11:24:57] it can be private as long as you want? not sure what ur asking [11:25:04] ah because its inactive rn [11:25:16] im writing pages in notepad [11:25:27] so i dont want it to be closed as i finish it [11:26:00] thats [[Dormany Policy]], you just have to make an edit at least every 2 months [11:26:00] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Dormany_Policy [11:26:02]

[11:26:15] i cant spell [11:26:27] [[Dormancy Policy]] [11:26:27] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Dormancy_Policy [11:26:28]

[11:26:53] :moonch: why is slowmode still on [11:27:39] [1/3] btw 'Manage this wiki's additional settings', there should I change to cosmos? in 'Styling'? [11:27:39] [2/3] Should I set up it for mobile too? [11:27:39] [3/3] changed and so far didn't change anything [11:28:00] Nvm works [11:28:28] [1/2] yes, change default skin to cosmos [11:28:28] [2/2] and since ur using cosmos which is mobile responsive, u should turn off the mobilefrontend extension so that mobile uses cosmos too [11:29:17] Thanks for help [11:31:48] [1/4] ok sorry i might have a lot more questions may be stupid some of these [11:31:48] [2/4] The background here is just an jpg? [11:31:49] [3/4] Is there any measurement somewhere so I know what will be hidden behind the content? Or I just need to do it by trial and error [11:31:49] [4/4] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1281215202477604989/image.png?ex=66dae824&is=66d996a4&hm=901203e932ec092ad279a86d426d86966af6df79e8a7db898754f8a1cbce7332& [11:32:56] [1/2] and where do I add files to my wiki like that [11:32:56] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1281215486746427464/image.png?ex=66dae867&is=66d996e7&hm=753550661c92868d3695925e1cb60200ea56d69574cb50a6144d7990e6cef611& [11:33:48] yeah just trial and error, it should use the entire width of the background image, and might display slightly differently on different sized screens anyway [11:34:50] upload a image to the wiki, go to the image page and get the static url of the image (the full thing, should start with like `https://static.miraheze.org`) [11:42:29] Can't get static link [11:42:52] No clue how to get it, I'm on uploaded image file and there is no link, neither it is in when I copy [11:47:14] open image in new tab? [12:06:15] on File: page under image preview should be something like open in original resolution [13:14:04] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1281240939473403966/image.png?ex=66db001c&is=66d9ae9c&hm=b091d992081a3e85e2d45fa75cce7fdc1fd86c5259c0b34fa7c8923e8a1445ab& [13:14:16] is this an issue? [13:15:01] Steward Requests/Misc is the right place to request a scope change for your wiki, right? [13:16:07] yes [13:18:59] Ok [13:18:59] what the error message says? [13:19:35] the greenery thing reminds me of trying to edit a template with VE [13:41:08] Hi Eclair [13:41:20] How are ya? [13:41:23] hello @finnishgrace [13:41:35] oh alright, just chatting with someone atm [13:41:54] I think we talked sometime before, You dont recognize me because I change my user weekly(I am mentally insane) [13:42:11] eh, aren't we all neurospicy one way or another? [13:43:25] That's one way to say it, I'm confused on what the person is referring to because the way she is having difficulties is the visual editor, I've never used visual anyways. I'll look into it to find the issue [13:43:46] There's nothing wrong, it must be her end [13:43:58] I've checked the page myself, false alarm apparently [13:44:59] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1281248720645787720/image.png?ex=66db075b&is=66d9b5db&hm=08f0ba8ed4a5b4e0b44f67866fd59808c1a6a187f9986738bf6517a3268dd816& [13:45:12] WHAT THE..? [13:45:51] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1281248938812510238/image.png?ex=66db078f&is=66d9b60f&hm=0a1daa25f5ba14c5fedaef5d94b1f097af70fd235ac653afab17225faf3504fe& [13:47:44] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1281249410101284864/image.png?ex=66db07ff&is=66d9b67f&hm=6b8a3551ea3d05435203e19a6aeaf6224008c399a5f335220b650528891b94ad& [13:47:56] I got the issue, I need to edit for source. [13:50:01] taking this to support [13:59:39] I found the issue. [13:59:53] my editor used CSS classes, issue resolved [14:26:36] [1/3] which roles should i edit [14:26:36] [2/3] (everyone cant edit except bureaucrats and admin) [14:26:37] [3/3] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1281259191922851931/image.png?ex=66db111b&is=66d9bf9b&hm=2d0e66e0127b8a10ffc60724f6c59f267fe751e22c7b56d6efac92d7282dd769& [14:34:10] Hey, why isn't this logo showing up on the top left; https://static.lamiascoils.miraheze.org/4/48/Mindlesswikilogo.svg [14:38:35] That doesn't look like a valid link [14:45:22] Hmm ok how do I genereate a valid link then? Following the process on the page results in extra material being added to the link [14:48:20] The instructions should tell you how to get the link to static [14:48:31] What extra material do you see [14:48:50] https://lamiascoils.miraheze.org/w/img_auth.php/4/48/Mindlesswikilogo.svg [14:49:08] w/img_auth.php [14:49:16] I'm not sure why you think that's extra material [14:49:32] oh :facepalm: [14:51:00] Just to let you know, because it's a private wiki, the logo won't show unless you're logged in if you store it locally [14:51:20] If you upload it Wikimedia or Miraheze commons, you'll be able to work around that @mindlessforminerva [14:54:04] Ah ok done [14:54:07] TL:DR if the link starts with static.miraheze.org then you are doing something correctly [14:56:13] Felenov: static is only for public wikis [14:56:23] Private wikis using img_auth [14:56:36] Oh, the user in question got a private wiki [14:56:55] didn't see at first. [15:16:15] [1/2] @theoneandonlylegroom you have any idea how that would translate? [15:16:15] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1281271686821449729/8d2de9bfbab68d8b.png?ex=66db1cbf&is=66d9cb3f&hm=32bc8d9088f7d7e6447cd8c6887471c7399b85bc844780b9bcbd81279ffb0a90& [15:18:19] Could someone tell me how to put “#” in links? [15:18:44] When I try, it treats it as redirects in sections. [15:19:06] thats what its meant to do, what are you trying to do? [15:20:09] Well, in fact, in the name of the page I'm trying to put, there's a “#”. [15:20:31] The page title really does contain a “#”, it's part of the title [15:22:21] i wonder if u can `{{urlencode}}` it: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Magic_words#URL_data [15:22:21] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Template:urlencode [15:23:22] I can try to find out. [15:31:05] stalkword? no idea [15:33:14] do i pick users? [15:33:31] for logged ins [15:34:49] remove edit permissions from (everyone), add it to admin and bcrat [15:36:18] I am clueless right now. Probably going to have a cigarette and maybe something will come up [15:46:38] how about logged in users [15:47:01] when i tested on my alt it still appeared "edit" instead of "view source" [15:49:36] [1/2] u can check what rights user groups have at Special:ListGroupRights (search for `(edit)`), but by default (everyone) is the group that has edit perms and its not specified for users [15:49:36] [2/2] if users does have edit persm specified u can just take that off [15:52:01] so i have to remove users edit rights? [15:52:23] does it say users have edit rights? [15:53:17] `user` has edit permission iirc [15:53:19] yep lemme change that [15:53:51] hm, i remember having to take it off (everyone) and add it to user [15:54:12] [1/2] nice [15:54:12] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1281281236375179315/image.png?ex=66db25a3&is=66d9d423&hm=51f51db5b71e20073bf617f63bed8fcb9ae49bc530936c73d9575c2a2d07bb15& [16:10:42] off now [17:06:48] I have a few questions regarding which links I am allowed to add to my Retro Handheld wiki. What about grey area stuff like the reddit r/roms megathread, links to romsets on archive.org, links to google spreadsheets containing affiliate links (not from me), or setup tutorials on google sheets containing rom links? I don't want the wiki to get banned. Thanks for any advice! [17:12:50] [1/2] you asked about amazon links previously? [17:12:51] [2/2] as for roms, I'm afraid this might fall into piracy territory, wiki.gg for example doesn't allow them [17:13:09] note that I'm not a steward [17:14:21] roms would effectively be piracy and it would be expected to take them down when called upon [17:15:22] secondary links leading to rom sites may be more blurry but I would not assume they are absolutely safe, but that's grey enough I wouldn't want to pre empt it necessarily if there's plenty of legit info and disclaimers are in place [17:15:48] in general with this in mind the most likely thing to happen would be a 'this link's got to go' and not necessarily the whole wiki being struck [17:15:59] it's not youtube, we'll work with the wiki on that [17:16:16] would a port mandeau of stalk and word make no sense? i dont know russian so i wouldn't know grammar and etc [17:17:32] [1/2] any idea how I could merge these two into a single table [17:17:32] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1281302208549228625/Screen_Shot_2024-09-05_at_10.17.21_AM.png?ex=66db392b&is=66d9e7ab&hm=eca3fe75057c00de2ab82f9b50b82045e6841643e91218a48b09d021842117d0& [17:17:44] in which clicking on the icon brings up the info in the bottom one [17:17:56] Okay, thanks for the answer! [17:18:11] and/or how to make the top ones square [17:18:26] instead of being extended/shrunk by the text [17:26:14] [1/2] table cells being the same size: set a width for every cell in the top row (width="20%") [17:26:14] [2/2] really rudimentary way to get the images to link to tabs: set the link to "#tabber-tab_name" (like `|link=#tabber-Inferno_Drive`) (not sure if spaces can be spaces or need to be underscores) [17:26:41] that works? [17:26:52] I haven't managed to get tabs with images to work [17:26:56] in the tabbernue [17:27:10] it just refuses to embed them [17:27:49] i mean setting links for the top images (and u could hide the tabber's own nav bar with css lol) [17:28:18] does "parse tab names as wikitext" (or whatever the setting is called) not allow images? [17:30:33] my css knowledge isn't advanced enough to handle what I am trying to do im afraid [17:30:37] a:SCbabbyokand: [17:36:26] images in tab headers has definitely been done before but idk if anyones written one size fits all js for it 🤔 [17:38:27] What do you think of my dropdown menu for a specific category (in this case a small wiki for one device)? I tried out different things for better navigation and this is my best result so far. https://handhelds.miraheze.org/wiki/R36S_Problems_and_Troubleshooting [17:39:06] I am also happy for any feedback or suggestions [17:40:46] And what do you think of the "Back to the Top" button? [17:47:46] Wiki is very barebones for now. I'm trying to figure out mediawiki (first time using it) and set some standards before starting to add more pages. [17:49:50]
