[00:07:14] I requested the wiki yesterday (I mean, it's the early morning of 7-8th September). It can be availiable tommorrow? [00:07:46] since y'all, guys take 2 days [00:09:41] You didn't understand care about anything that people said to you before, I guess. [00:12:14] [1/2] Patience and consideration is appreciated for any request. [00:12:14] [2/2] In the end, just give it some time. [00:13:41] they will get to it when they can [00:14:08] I only wanted to make an Spanish version of my own wiki, to people who are NOT friends of the English language (I mean bad english users) [00:14:23] that will probably be declined [00:14:28] you can just use the translate extension [00:14:33] + css/formatting issue. [00:14:53] I only wanna be like Wikipedia [00:15:09] like the other languages link [00:15:47] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1282132241148936234/image.png?ex=66de3e33&is=66dcecb3&hm=61af925009130e4c8cefec18d052a207eb42f0231b6a77361942a4b8eeea8428& [00:16:01] I don't know if you understand @princessellierose [00:16:27] I don’t mean to be rude, but shouldn’t you focus on adding content to your wiki before creating an entirely new site and translating it? [00:16:36] You've said that a few times. Everyone understands. [00:17:37] I was like focusing making the Main Page as Spanish Wikipedia for FurrNations, because the English Mainpage is a bit of replicating [00:17:48] due to the blank gaps between the tables [00:18:02] It seems like a lot of your wiki is just imported templates from Wikipedia with not much actual content [00:18:06] From what I’ve seen? [00:18:11] Creating a same wiki in many languages can be really hard. [00:18:20] ^ [00:18:24] that is what they are doing [00:18:46] I remember there was a steward report about their wiki in the past that covered that [00:19:36] My wikipedia is just like the wikipedia, but furries on historic facts, micronations, businesses... [00:19:50] not really needs to be irl related [00:19:58] Besides, the cost of maintain each one make this really difficult. I don't try to discourage. [00:20:41] true, with the spanish version, I have 3 wikis, counting also my ESC one [00:21:51] and I just am starting with the English FurrNations, to look like the Wikipedia homepage [00:22:15] below of Did you know... theres a whole white gap [00:22:26] between the featured list section [00:22:32] and the picture one [00:22:56] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1282134040744296468/image.png?ex=66de3fe0&is=66dcee60&hm=9534cefd3957ba2cbeb0a2edc090d33f3ecd4e58d12f5c92db6567d67140645a& [00:23:08] I don't know if someone's noticed it [00:23:53] why do you have many apps pinned to ur taskbar [00:24:14] idk [00:24:26] also ROBLOX had. [00:24:37] 😔 [00:53:15] I mean idk about the gap [00:53:33] if you can send the page where it’s happening I can have a look [01:13:24] How do I add references and notes [01:14:44] If I'm not wrong, [01:14:45] says i need a template, or smth but which one? any tips? [01:15:02] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1282147152985980928/image.png?ex=66de4c16&is=66dcfa96&hm=34304db49207beba9d38c18bc558cdacea3c6be370f23ee476e8558e80c48a57& [01:15:22] You havent created one. [01:15:36] How do you mean [01:16:06] It appears in red bc you did not created those templates yet. [01:16:38] Which templates do I need to add [01:16:58] there might be some on https://dev.miraheze.org [01:17:27] For references, try to add "" for now. [01:18:37] https://furrnations.miraheze.org/wiki/Main_Page [01:18:46] the main page of my wiki [01:18:56] (sorry for some content there) [01:22:45] you don't need a template [01:23:02] if you put `` it will display the references on the page [03:19:05] You may need to enable the cite extension for the references tag to work [03:29:44] 99.9% sure that is implemented in cite [04:38:15] Yep yep [05:12:22] One observation of mine as someone who joined Miraheze this year but has close to 20 years of experience with Wikipedia is that "community portal" is not an intuitive name for what the page actually is [05:14:29] For us or for them? [05:14:41] the one on Miraheze [05:15:04] It used to be worse, it used to be the Community noticeboard [05:15:18] which wasn't really a noticeboard for notices to the community but more of a help desk [05:15:34] Wait so I thought you just called it that because that's what MediaWiki calls it by default [05:16:22] The community portal name was just imported from WikiTide because at WT, we wanted to have our own Community noticeboard-like page but we didn't want to outright copy the name and have it be a blatant rip-off [05:17:16] I didn't know MediaWiki had a community portal system message built-in [05:23:04] Thinking about the Community Portal's name and the effort to rename it, I'm kinda surprised that no one suggested "Community center" as an alternative [05:24:23] It's not really intuitive though [05:25:25] I think an idea we floated around at the time when we split the Stewards noticeboard into Steward requests was maybe creating a new "Help desk" page and splitting the community discussions part into a new "Community discussions" page [05:49:44] Harej is in the process of doing a larger audit of how Meta is organized (and proposing some new structuring), revisiting some assumptions on logical naming conventions would make decent sense as part of that work. [06:45:34] [1/2] Don’t know if this is the right place for this, but on meta the blocked IP thing is messed up [06:45:34] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1282230332396929034/IMG_9188.png?ex=66de998d&is=66dd480d&hm=d9ebc62e0df2095967205d8f6668ac00aeffbee5b2c3004f81ee53cafb782d60& [06:48:15] you are trying to edit when logged in or unable to login? [06:48:46] Not logged in, it’s blocking Apple private relay [06:49:10] The table isn’t displaying properly [06:49:52] vpn et all ip are blocked on mira, idk what's the apple thingy [06:50:15] maybe it counts [06:50:23] Apple’s fancy whatchamacallit proxy I believe [06:50:28] https://support.apple.com/en-nz/102602. [06:50:42] well, that's it then [06:51:02] I’m talking about how the table isn’t working properly [06:51:15] ah [06:51:17] sorry [06:51:20] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1282231783357812808/1282230332610969624remix-1725778275927.png?ex=66de9ae7&is=66dd4967&hm=18bc9baddd2346a0c5d7719219a2c77b05ca6d046707f5566371b91d99d62a41& [06:51:25] All good haha [07:04:25] DiscussionTools doesn't seems to work in talk pages [07:21:49] That's not expected [07:22:16] I may have Flow still enabled in my site? [07:23:36] DiscussionTools and Flow aren't compatible [07:23:48] You cant use both on the same page [07:32:20] mine still have Flow checked [07:32:53] You will need to disable flow on that page for discussion tools to work [07:33:01] They are fundamentally different concepts [07:33:45] Flow is deceprated by the way [07:41:27] A migration plan will be coming soon when we force you to move [07:41:31] @songngu.xyz [08:05:55] hey so I have an issue [08:06:14] I'm trying to upload a image file on my phone to my private wiki [08:06:41] but it keeps saying "Something went wrong" and gives me the "dimiss" and "try again" buttons [08:06:55] I've tried in like 3 times in the past 2 hours or so [08:06:55] on upload page? [08:06:59] yes [08:07:47] literally just something went wrong [08:07:50] [1/2] screenshot needed [08:07:51] [2/2] there has to be a warning or error message [08:07:54] have you got a screenshot? [08:08:22] yeah let me take one [08:08:26] i'll send it [08:09:08] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1282251364784803992/chrome_screenshot_1725782934741.png?ex=66dead24&is=66dd5ba4&hm=a95fc8bf8f7a8cd71bbfd121a234195ffe61394d51d75258b9ca712518d2c064& [08:09:11] There [08:09:25] that's not upload page, you're doing this in editor [08:09:38] it says upload file [08:09:44] underneath the error [08:09:49] this is from within VE then [08:09:57] can you try directly from Special:Upload [08:10:04] looks like source editor [08:10:12] where is that? [08:10:25] exactly where I said [08:10:32] Citoid? [08:10:37] go to the page Special:Upload on your wiki [08:10:44] Citoid is long gone [08:10:45] [1/2] yeah, by upload page I meant that [08:10:45] [2/2] `.../wiki/Special:Upload` [08:10:49] you mean Parsoid i think [08:10:53] but kinda ye [08:10:56] oh that makes sense [08:11:02] ah, I mistook that [08:11:30] [1/2] when we say some page name we mean portion usually after /wiki/ in URL [08:11:30] [2/2] there's also a list of all special pages, link in the toolbar [08:14:32] frick yeah! [08:14:43] it finally worked! 😅 [08:14:49] it was my mistake [08:14:49] VE is dumb then [08:14:58] it was [ ] then [08:15:06] it was source editor [08:15:09] I changed it to _word_ [08:15:32] I used to upload files from editor but files then end up being a mess, I now upload only from special page [08:15:46] since it lets you to add description and categories [08:15:48] ah okay [08:15:50] and license [08:15:57] VE shouldn't be giving unhelpful something went wrong [08:15:59] that makes sense [08:16:04] fr tho [08:16:04] when there's an actual error [08:16:08] yeah [08:16:10] that's just a terrible UX [08:16:22] what's UX? is it design flaw? [08:16:33] User eXpreience [08:16:34] user experience [08:16:37] i spelt that wrong [08:16:39] oh [08:23:53] okay [09:28:51] [1/2] sorry i forgot to check for responses [09:28:51] [2/2] but essentially im using a template page to log the raw templates for some pages, and i wanted an easier way to add them [09:30:21] https://pokemonunbound.miraheze.org/wiki/Template:RaidDrops here's the page i wanna add entries in [09:35:56] [1/3] I do have another question as well, though in quite a different branch: [09:35:56] [2/3] i've been using templates from bulbapedia for my wiki based on the last point, would I need to license it the same as theirs (2.5) or can i use the newer 4.0 noncommercial license? [09:35:57] [3/3] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1282273207495430156/image.png?ex=66dec17c&is=66dd6ffc&hm=99e4e956087af04e7718d7069a8aa25a16220ae5cd3dbdbd56f0daf5f44f53a4& [09:39:55] ruby.raven: re bulbapedia licensing: i think you'll just need an attribution template, kinda like [[w:Template:En-WP attribution notice]] [09:39:55] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:En-WP_attribution_notice [09:40:25] hey so how do you upload a video to your private wiki? [09:40:28] [[:w:Template:En-WP attribution notice]] [09:40:28] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/:w:Template:En-WP_attribution_notice [09:40:29]

[09:41:12] no I downloaded the video [09:41:19] cosmicvin.: pretty sure you should be able to upload it? [09:41:20] i want to upload it [09:41:26] but how? [09:41:36] Same way as you did your image [09:41:38] Sorry, that link was related to a different conversation hahaha [09:41:49] ah okay [09:41:56] you'll need to enable the file extension first [09:42:01] see File Extensions ($wgFileExtensions) in Special:ManageWiki/settings [09:42:07] ok [09:42:44] my question is more about the license version though [09:43:04] less about how to implement it on relevant pages [09:43:18] I believe it would be best to use the license they provide? [09:43:32] [1/2] something with [[mw:Extension:InputBox]]? i havent used it myself but this looks like what u want [09:43:32] https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:InputBox [09:43:33] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1282275120018358292/image.png?ex=66dec344&is=66dd71c4&hm=ffdcfb59e89b252a0a6f67ac10dad5376932a562b484a651d65bdd171a8a5665& [09:43:33]

[09:44:07] ill check it out and report back in a bit :DD thanks [09:51:44] [1/3] first check file extension settings as Eclair said, video formats should be allowed [09:51:44] [2/3] second, you need to enable TimedMediaHandler extension, to be able to watch videos on wiki [09:51:44] [3/3] then you just upload videos like images, all files are uploaded on wiki the same way [09:52:28] it's not letting me upload the mp4 and I already enabled the extensions and added all the video file formats and music formats possible [09:52:36] oh let me get that [09:53:15] [1/2] bear in mind that videos should not break copyright etc [09:53:15] [2/2] if video exists on youtube or other video hosting, you can embed them w/ links, that needs different extensions [09:53:15] I already added that [09:53:20] I just checked [09:53:34] ah okay, I don't think it exists on Youtube [09:53:55] [1/2] give it some time to start working [09:53:55] [2/2] and try w/ Special:Upload [09:54:04] okay [09:54:09] I'll try tha [09:58:38] It worked!! fricking yes! I didn't even know you could add Videos or Music to a Miraheze wiki!! (I am kinda surprised ngl, but to fair, my first (dead rn) website had those features too.) [09:59:17] you can even upload .c files on miraheze wikis lol [10:21:34] \ [10:22:02] the thing about Miraheze it's offering a lot of features, much more than other hostings, but it also gives an option to use or not use most of them [10:22:30] Fandom or wiki.gg have less features and are very restricted about them [10:22:47] so you just gotta know what you need [11:01:41]
