[00:00:59] [1/4] A few step how to improve SEO ranking: [00:01:00] [2/4] * The content of the new wiki must be better than the old one [00:01:00] [3/4] * Use some SEO extensions, also the RemoveRedlinks extension also improve SEO but you lose red links. [00:01:00] [4/4] * Make sure every users uses Indie Wiki Buddy extension (especially on Chrome browser) and specifically search for the new wiki so the SEO prioritize new wiki over Fandoom over time. [03:11:10] The wiki I'm on has had stable (currently growing) traffic since we moved a few months ago, but it's still below Fandom [03:16:12] I heard changing/rewriting articles helps, but to what extent should this be done for it have an effect? [03:17:37] I haven't heard that much, though as I understand Google will sometimes hide articles it see's as duplicates. [03:22:10] I think that's happening on some articles [03:22:38] Do you have google search console? [03:22:45] Yeah [03:22:58] Hm [03:24:51] Maybe I'm not making full use of it since I primarily check search performance and core web vitals (used to check page indexing but not anymore) [03:28:42] For some reason when I search a full page name, it doesn't appear in results despite a gallery subpage of it appears. Only shows up when I append "miraheze" to the search query [10:34:45] does anyone know how do i make a table template where i can insert text in it, not in the template but the table? [10:35:09] [1/3] something like {{template [10:35:09] [2/3] | health = 100 [10:35:09] [3/3] }} [10:35:26] ive seen other wikis do it but i dont know how [10:47:46] such table is called infobox, it's a template still [10:47:51] [[Infoboxes]] [10:47:52] [10:48:39] or you mean something else? [11:14:23] is miraheze provide any of spelling and grammar checking extensions? [11:23:17] don't think so, but spell checking is usually built-in browsers [11:24:17] ok [11:41:08] i think no,thanks [11:44:19] [1/2] hello, can i make a switcher like this on my miraheze wiki? if possible how?

[15:48:22] [2/4] When my Wiki proposal was approved part of the message said, 'Please ensure your wiki complies with all aspects of the Content Policy at all times and that it does not deviate from the approved scope or else your wiki will be closed.' [15:48:22] [3/4] I'm a little worried about this, although the way I read the Content Policy I think I should be fine. But I was wondering that now that I've added my first 100 edits whether someone could quickly double-check for me? (before I go much further and find out I have a problem) [15:48:23] [4/4] https://anarwiki.miraheze.org/wiki/Special:AllPages [15:49:04] What’s the topic/scope of your wiki [15:49:53] It is a Left Anarchist encyclopedia - history, topics. biographies [15:57:44] I changed on the infobox page [15:59:25] [1/2] I have too, but seem not to fix it. Needs @theoneandonlylegroom or others with knowledge of PortableInfobox. [15:59:26] [2/2] I see that both extensions are enabled. [16:03:06] As long as you keep it neutral, and not promote the Left ideas, you should be okay. It is best to also portray a neutral view on how the Right ideas portrays it. Not criticising, nor praising is Neutral. [16:03:25] Just glanced 5 articles, and seems okay. [16:08:46] Appreciate you taking the time to look at it - it has had a mix of contributors in the past, some more formal, some more casual, and it is a source for people sometimes seeking to know what a particular viewpoint is, but my personal aim is to ensure accuracy even when dealing with disagreements, and I think Miraheze could be a good long term home for the wiki. [16:09:22] welcome to Miraheze [16:10:48] You can always write a comment on my talkpage if you want something checked out, which you might be in doubt of.

[23:30:45] Not sure your issue but you don't need to include the fill url for local links [23:30:59] `Zodiac|Zodiac Event` is sufficient. [23:31:52] I would assume its the cache because logged out the main page appears in Vector but subsequent, presumably uncached pages, appear in a differnet skin.
