[00:28:41] imperial is just weird af [00:28:59] it is weird [00:29:11] but a lot of claims about it are explainable [00:29:42] [1/3] Celsius haves more sense because [00:29:42] [2/3] 32 F is 0 celsius [00:29:42] [3/3] Why 32 F tho [00:31:35] because the freezing point of pure water wasn't the basis for fahrenheit [00:32:07] 0 was the temperature he assigned to an ice and salt mixture in water [00:33:44] so basically the freezing point of water was not 0 °F [00:33:59] but instead 30 °F [00:34:06] and later revised to 32 °F [00:36:19] Daniel Fahrenheit presumably didn't want negatives which is why he set 0 to be the "lowest" [06:29:55] <_arawynn> Fun fact: -40F and -40C are the same temperature because there's multiplication in the conversion of those units of temperature [07:05:23] true [08:19:53] [1/2] Everytime I click on one it vanishes [08:19:54] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1286240337039331379/Screenshot_20240919_151826_Chrome.jpg?ex=66ed3029&is=66ebdea9&hm=84165d27112c6fc0d877d4acec80c215f1f673eb5054dffde267e596d8ac6e63& [08:19:58] How do I fix this? [08:24:01] click on what? [08:50:07] the links to each section I'm guessing [08:50:46] it seems like an awful color scheme causing the problem [08:51:15] @tempette are you able to click on where the link disappeared for it to take you to the link it goes to? [09:19:11] 😭 [09:19:28] I don't know how to make a good color scheme for stuff like this [09:23:13] I think :visited might have played the role too [10:16:17] Could someone go here and send all the images from the links to me? I can't download them for some reason https://firstcommandmwentwiki.miraheze.org/wiki/ImageHaven [10:16:29] (Yes this is my wiki) [10:16:52] Waht about lighten the brown a lot and have dark brown text or have it it be dark mahogny brown and slightly lighen the text color [10:17:28] I need to look up what dark mahogny is [10:18:18] https://www.shutterstock.com/image-photo/walnut-wood-texture-230081713 [10:19:38] Or what about something like this: https://www.fancypapers.com/e-shop/uncoated/k-color/k-color-dark-brown/ [10:22:01] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shades_of_brown Taupe may work or Sepia (sorruy for deleing ping messages before_ [12:54:21] [1/3] I'm new to Miraheze and having trouble creating an infobox on the left side of my wiki page with multiple images. I've read through the infobox, well, info: https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Infoboxes, but I'm still having difficulty understanding how to implement it correctly. [12:54:22] [2/3] My wiki can be found here: https://usualdemonbusiness.miraheze.org/wiki/Main_Page [12:54:22] [3/3] As you can see, the current infobox code doesn't seem to work. I've tried a variety of methods but can't figure it out. Thank you in advance. [12:56:14] neptunecookies: you'll need to enable the extension in https://usualdemonbusiness.miraheze.org/wiki/Special:ManageWiki/extensions first [12:56:20] (it's called "Portable Infobox") [12:56:24] afterward, resave the page and it should be there [12:57:11] Isnt pi default but disableable? [12:57:15] If not it should be heh [12:57:47] not ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ [12:57:52] want me to fix that? [13:05:33] [1/8] okay, did that. i then went back to my original code ``` [13:05:33] <MirahezeRelay> <neptunecookies> [2/8] <image source="image">|image = [13:05:34] <MirahezeRelay> <neptunecookies> [3/8] <gallery> [13:05:34] <MirahezeRelay> <neptunecookies> [4/8] Usual Demon Busines logo white .png|Logo with a white background [13:05:34] <MirahezeRelay> <neptunecookies> [5/8] Usual Demob Business transparent.png|Logo with a transparent background [13:05:35] <MirahezeRelay> <neptunecookies> [6/8] /gallery [13:05:35] <MirahezeRelay> <neptunecookies> [7/8] /infobox``` [13:05:35] <MirahezeRelay> <neptunecookies> [8/8] and it doesn't work [13:07:33] <BlankEclair> neptunecookies: you removed the starting <infobox> [13:09:36] <MirahezeRelay> <neptunecookies> oh my bad lol sry i'm ill. now it shows...nothing??

[13:31:34] <BlankEclair> you're welcome ^_^ [14:14:14] <MirahezeRelay> <sotter95> Is mediawiki pre-installed in new miraheze wikis? [14:16:40] <MirahezeRelay> <geoffreytrang, replying to sotter95> All Miraheze wikis obviously use MediaWiki. [14:18:11] <MirahezeRelay> <sotter95> So if I have just made a wiki and want to install a mediawiki extension, I don't need to install mediawiki, as well. Correct? [14:19:57] <MirahezeRelay> <raidarr> no manual installation is required on miraheze [14:20:35] <MirahezeRelay> <raidarr> technically speaking you're getting an instance of it already set to go and then enable already available extensions in Special:ManageWiki/extensions [14:21:37] <MirahezeRelay> <raidarr> If the extension is not available, then the matter can be taken to [[Phorge]]; if it's somewhat common and missing it is possible it was rejected for security issues or the like, some extensions are not made available because of this.
