[00:09:12] No worries mate. There isn’t any official joining method, I like most people just showed up and started chatting. (Most of us are on discord but there are still actives members of the community who live on IRC, hi BlankEclair and MacFan4000) [00:09:45] #offtopic / #miraheze-offtopic exists for general chatting too [01:07:47] https://discord.com/channels/407504499280707585/1316207947067428974 [04:36:45] [1/2] how come I imported infobox from another wiki yet it's giving me this error? [04:36:46] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1316262375489409116/image.png?ex=675a685d&is=675916dd&hm=303c8b5e07df59051f7038030d98b51dd09f57e18db1d682acc4887c64ef04f6& [04:36:53] I got it from here: https://runescape.wiki/w/Template:Infobox [04:37:12] because they use a module [04:37:35] you can jsut make your own with the infobox builder, publish it, and customize it by editing it [04:38:23] I don't mind importing a module from them since I'm gonna need other templates anyways [04:38:39] Do I have to import Module:Infobox too? [04:39:05] [1/2] this was what got imported when I tried to import it [04:39:05] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1316262959848230996/image.png?ex=675a68e8&is=67591768&hm=bf6def8a09e7d8afcb6ba7c3df13fa25b2c82b9310e2e91de1b757957d5bd508& [04:40:53] maybe you shpuld just import from a miraheze wiki [04:41:37] it wants semanticmediawiki enabled i think [04:46:41] Wikipedia infoboxes are overcomplicated w/ stuff wikis of lesser rank won't need in million years [04:49:17] Hello - do you guys have any SLA? [04:52:46] Guest20: not afaik [04:54:27] obligatory IANAL, but this seems to be the exact opposite of an SLA: https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Terms_of_Use#5._Limitations [05:03:04] [1/2] Essentially yes. We will do our best (and that best is usually pretty darn good) in providing hosting with reliable uptime. [05:03:04] [2/2] However, we're a free service run by passionate volunteers - the time each one can provide is both limited and variable, and as such we triage and solve what we can, when we can. [05:03:33] hallo [05:04:05] [1/2] is there a way to "automate" the Create Redirect extension [05:04:05] [2/2] as I need to make a bunch of pages redirect to a single page [05:04:31] well i mean you can do it yourself [05:05:13] what do you mean 😅 [05:05:34] I'm not aware of a mass create function that could create a bunch of redirects for you, Auto wiki browser might get you there but would require some prompting [05:05:51] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1316269699742437438/image0.jpg?ex=675a6f2f&is=67591daf&hm=965ea7f266fb91911621e8cf81940933c2e49f1566bcfcc57e613d4a235135f7& [05:06:05] oh thats what you mean [05:06:07] It is now more than 20 days since I have created a ticket for importing new pages - it is our final check before completely moving our wiki to Miraheze, so far we have tested everything and we have decided to move our live/production wiki to Miraheze - my management is asking me every day for the update and I don't have any answers. Please let me [05:06:07] know is there any eta in which you pickup my task T12907? [05:06:40] i already have done that for the first set, but since im doing hundreds at a time i wanted to know if there was a way to do it easier haha [05:06:46] ah [05:06:49] thank you for this! will look into it [05:06:49] no easier way i fear [05:07:06] 20 days is definitely an outlier, I will flag this with our tech team to look into [05:08:41] What does `` mean when it comes to infobox? [05:08:47] image [05:08:52] you can place an image [05:08:54] like if I want the image source is my pagename.png [05:08:58] how do I make that code? [05:08:58] yes [05:09:02] what [05:09:12] [1/2] displaying this [05:09:12] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1316270541161758730/image.png?ex=675a6ff8&is=67591e78&hm=041fe999f41d0d5ffa04629e6946821970ee75a46f1f01ffeb3b7d354782351b& [05:09:13] by placing that code [05:09:28] you can use it with `|image= Image.png` [05:09:47] Oh no wonder. [05:09:53] thanks. [05:10:16] can I code the infobox so that you don't have to hardcode image = .png? [05:10:30] but instad make it image = ((pagename)).png? [05:11:08] [1/5] ``` [05:11:08] [2/5] [05:11:08] [3/5] {{PAGENAME}}.png/default [05:11:08] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Template:PAGENAME [05:11:09] [4/5] /image [05:11:09] [5/5] ``` [05:12:50] @notaracham thank you for responding - please flag with tech team to at least provide an eta [05:14:37] I tried that but it won't work. [05:15:11] It just shows blank even though that (name).png exists. [05:15:24] can i have a link to the template [05:16:03] https://artale.miraheze.org/wiki/Template:Infobox_Monster [05:16:19] nevermind. it's working now [05:16:49] I'm guessing that if the image doesn't exist, it just displays no image by default? [05:17:01] Insted of giving a link to upload file? [05:22:00] yep [05:22:32] how long should i wait for the google SEO tag to kick in [05:29:03] [1/2] I’m having trouble with the visual editor can anyone help?

Now do I need to attach the latest XML file again in the same ticket and put some comments in there or create a complete new ticket and attach the latest XML file? [07:09:31] I would recommend attaching an updated XML [07:09:43] In the same ticket? [07:09:51] Yes [07:10:06] Or edit the original post, replacing the XML file [07:11:59] OK will do, so did you flag this ticket with your tech team and got any eta since if I upload the latest XML it will again outdated if not importing within few days [07:13:31] I flagged it. Our tech team is spread throughout the globe, so I'm not going to get a response since we last chatted [07:16:17] OK got it - I will attach the updated XML file and waiting for someone to respond [08:34:55] need to hear some thoughts, do you guys do the first header `= this =` or `== this ==` [08:36:47] I never use = since its equivalent is h1 which should only be used once per web page [08:37:00] [1/2] also the mw wiki advises against it [08:37:00] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1316322834976346144/Screenshot_20241211_093607_Firefox.jpg?ex=675aa0ab&is=67594f2b&hm=7a614f7da10749156e95d5679c069f6e15339dea14f8fc7e73d698deb0a94f7f& [10:07:49] [1/3] can someone help me delete these pages [10:07:49] [2/3] [10:07:50] [3/3] [10:18:02] These pages do not exist [10:18:15] Badtitle states as much [10:18:17] but they somehow exist [10:18:53] [1/2] like [10:18:54] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1316348476694593626/image0.jpg?ex=675ab88d&is=6759670d&hm=50aefb07ada77f6274353f23e2e3aa365bb392054856efa2690c1962d10a8395& [10:19:43] hmmm. @MediaWiki Specialists Can you guys advice on this? Never seen that before. [10:20:05] Kinda reminds me of some categories on my own wiki that no longer exist, yet they still show up on the page that shows all the categories. (Or at least, 50-something of them.) [10:21:58] seems to be something from a formerly installed extension [10:22:55] https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Extension_default_namespaces#ID_200%E2%80%93299 [10:24:07] social profile [10:24:37] neat [10:24:48] you can reenable that, or ask on phorge to run cleanupTitles.php (or to delete them outright) [10:28:04] i reenabled and deleted them [10:31:32] however it seems userprofilev2 have broke [10:40:26] now fixed tho 💪 [12:29:03] Any ideas on how long roughly to get a reply to a request? [12:33:32] wiki reviews are slow nowadays due to lack of reviewer, might take 3-5 days [12:34:02] Thanks mate @theoneandonlylegroom [12:45:30] is that a fucking tv 💀 [12:54:16] I use = in only one circumstance, when drafting a page edition to copy into something existing; then I use it to start 'actual' content. Every other case, == first [13:01:16] I used first level once, in uh page that is partially transcluted to main page, and it has a portion in the beginning that shouldn't be touched, so it's easier to click edit button on that big header than click big bu [13:22:33] how do I make calculations in infobox? [13:22:57] Is it , something like that? [13:22:57] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Template:1_%2b_2 [13:22:57] [13:28:10] there are parsers functions for such things but that's outside of standard portable infobox capabilities, you need to use (or formatting?) or tag to use usual template coding [13:29:02] Yeah I built my infobox off portable but I want to make a lot of customizations [13:29:28] [1/2] I want a calculation for hp / exp.
