[00:49:47] Super transphobic superhero fanfic universe wiki on fandom I found once. [01:37:56] I imagine that fanfic is cringe af 🥀 [01:40:25] :ThinkingHardMH: [01:56:33] [1/2] Ngl I personally like wiki.gg the most, since it somewhat balances Fandom's conveniences and Miraheze's quality [01:56:33] [2/2] With that being said, Miraheze is great too [01:57:42] it's good I love how much documentation it has. feels like what if fandom was good [01:57:51] hopefully it doesn't go down the same route [01:58:01] Agreed [01:58:43] [1/2] I help start or move over a handful wikis to there [01:58:43] [2/2] Hope that wiki platform stands strong for years to come [02:00:04] But in 5 years, even if it enshittifies, I don't see it being close to the enshittification level that Fandom has [02:10:50] what 😭🙏 [02:29:34] Almost every article was dedicated to Obama too it was a fever dream [02:30:51] what's the best way to uppercase the first letter of a string in lua? [02:34:23] [1/2] I'm finding this thing [02:34:24] [2/2] `(str:gsub("^%l", string.upper))` [02:37:14] guess that's the best option? [02:51:53] is there a way to Delete modules or templates [02:56:27] Never mind found it [03:11:38] on what criteria [03:12:27] To start over because I screwed up and this too much to delete manually [03:36:01] oh did you import wikipedia with dependencies [03:36:22] I think I deleted that shit manually but I'm sure there's a way [03:37:58] yes, Because I needed two Pacific ones And shit ain't working, So I have a bunch of modules and Templates I don't need And I tried using mast delete but I can't figure it out [05:52:30] <_dan_theman, replying to emicraftnoob> https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1454351214979321977/image.png?ex=6950c59e&is=694f741e&hm=d6f86bcccbba264c00f4626df835ec272b27262d901861f2f58c9822fab2a577& [05:55:26] [1/5] i think you can change this [05:55:26] [2/5] ```@media screen [05:55:26] [3/5] ul { [05:55:27] [4/5] list-style: square url(/1.44/skins/MonoBook/resources/images/bullet.svg?36e03); [05:55:27] [5/5] }``` [06:05:23] <_dan_theman, replying to emicraftnoob> thanks. [07:29:28] bruh why did miraheze log me off my account for no reason!! [07:29:39] now its time to sleep [10:16:46] Hi! [11:12:12] Hi [12:29:12] [1/2] if you want a quick fix run the javascript line`mw.loader.load('https://battlecats.miraheze.org/w/load.php?lang=en&modules=ext.gadget.i18n,QDmodal,Modal,Placement,AjaxBatchDelete,MassNullEdit')`. There are some scripts available in https://github.com/lihaohong6/MirahezeDevScripts that might also be useful idk [12:29:12] [2/2] I'm not familiar with whatever script you're trying to use, so I personally would try and get a list of the pages that I need to delete and put them in the AjaxBatchDelete script loaded by the line I pasted above [12:54:18] There isn't a tool in the vain of AWB/JWB/pywikibot yet. I do think it'll be interesting to write one to fill the gap. When people ask about bulk deletion/purge/replace there isn't a tool that is easy to use and has a decent amount of features. [12:54:42] JWB probably requires the least setup but the interface requires a bit of learning to get used to. [13:35:49] I wonder how hard it is to regex match all Wikipedia style templates [13:36:20] I tried once and there was a lot of uh "rubbish" left behind, and I resorted to my crawled verson of the site as HTML is easyer to deal with [13:40:57] @rhinosf1 sorry if i'm being a bit of a bother but my wiki still redircts to the custom domain [13:42:06] Does it in incognito too [13:42:51] yes [13:43:07] @paladox you up? [13:45:50] cp171 hit [13:45:51] Fun [13:49:53] That didn't help [13:50:00] I've no idea why it's still doing it [13:54:46] I’m mobile [14:02:26] Same until the second [14:02:33] I have shell on my phone but nothing else [14:13:20] /auth [14:20:05] [1/4] MY LATE CHRISTMAS WISH FOR MIRAHEZE: [14:20:05] [2/4] - more popularity [14:20:06] [3/4] - better seo than fandom [14:20:06] [4/4] - MiraPlus, a subscription service for Miraheze [14:21:10] [1/3] Would be nice [14:21:11] [2/3] Forever may we wish [14:21:11] [3/3] Burrrrrn [14:52:47] 2) we do not take much effort to elevate ourselves globally. It's kinda up to the wiki at the moment. 3) and what would that get you? [15:15:17] idk something like more privileged access to js and lua, access to special servers for better performance, quicker support, and a cool ass badge [15:15:42] only for 5$ a month but u can get it for 45$ a year [15:20:22] what would more privileged js and lua be [15:22:54] so you are talking about wikiforge (rip) [15:24:49] A security risk [15:25:08] Quicker support isn’t really applicable because like it’s all volunteers anyways [15:25:19] No one at Miraheze actually gets paid anything [15:34:46] what exactly do you mean by this [15:35:12] cause I happen to be doing something similar now [15:36:13] paid support mean proper full time job aaand [15:36:45] i don't think it's applicable here ill be honest, i better have different full time job w/ higher salary [15:43:33] 1) isn't possible, we don't restrict it now 2) would be very expensive 3) were all volunteers so we can't give an SLA 4) we already have donors [15:45:03] It would cost us thousands [15:45:10] Well tens of thousands [15:45:25] One or two paying plus customers ain't gonna solve that [15:45:35] exactly [15:46:32] and our modest donations wouldn't cover that, obviously [15:48:36] <18.748.837.46> I appear to have gotten kicked, I just wanna say I was joking and my display name is not my actual location [15:49:00] <18.748.837.46> I chose some random spot in the Azores [15:49:10] man [15:50:37] <18.748.837.46> I wanted to see how long I could troll this person into thinking I was an actual idiot by doing that but I was cut short 💔 [15:51:06] <18.748.837.46> No more trolling tho [15:51:11] <18.748.837.46> I have turned a new leaf [15:51:27] I can't see any indication you were in #mod-logs [15:51:38] No idea if you can see that channel @18.748.837.46 [15:52:02] <18.748.837.46> Yeah I see it [15:52:04] @pixldev, @nibblypup: anything in the audit log ^ [15:52:16] <18.748.837.46> Idk I just came back and I wasnt in the server anymore [15:53:10] Nor do I, I don't have powers to check anything else [15:53:20] MiraPlus is getting the cool yellow username on the server [15:53:29] Infra don't get anything special discord side [15:55:32] We did kick [15:56:00] NA kicked on my request because it was one in the morning [15:57:13] <18.748.837.46> Damn. [15:57:33] <18.748.837.46> https://tenor.com/view/kanye-west-kanye-west-falls-knock-you-down-gif-16619715804532906115 [17:09:19] [1/2] Hi guys, uhh what to do to make wiki's main page look like this? [17:09:19] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1454521539226501303/Screenshot_2025-12-27-22-08-36-395_com.opera.browser-edit.jpg?ex=6951643e&is=695012be&hm=5d392464ba9ba78f6ef6de573bc2cb5faaf08e55340f4decf7c6d9d794666983& [17:13:08] templates and html [17:13:22] flexbox particularly [18:25:26] Excuse me @bwm.mh, sorry to bother you, but how might I go about asking for someone to get banned? [18:25:42] DM me [18:25:47] Will do. [18:28:49] Hey guys, hows it going? [18:37:25] Not bad [18:37:26] yo [18:37:50] 70 degree December was unexpected and probably very bad ecologically but I’m enjoying outdoor time [19:43:37] i cant understand fahrenheit [19:43:56] convert to the CIVILISED METRIC!!! [19:44:08] 21c roughly [19:44:39] F is the one measurement I prefer over the global standard lmao [19:44:42] Miles suck [19:44:55] I’m an American and I don’t understand miles [19:45:24] yeah miles go by like [19:45:28] 12 iirc [19:45:49] but celsius is like water its more applicable to weather [19:46:04] <_arawynn> 21C is pretty warm o.O we've been having -7C yesterday [19:46:07] and heat in general [19:46:29] yeah 21 is like early summer temps [19:46:39] 10 is like spring [19:48:01] never understand how people say 10 c is cold [19:50:13] 10c in fall is cold, 10c in spring is warm [19:51:07] 10c in fall is easy t-shirt weather (at least for me) [19:58:20] Whats up yall is creating object show or osc related wikis still banned :earnest_creature: [20:01:19] osc? [20:13:38] I don't remember any object show wiki banning [20:22:05] they are rejected [20:22:22] there's no object show wikis on miraheze to begin w/ [20:23:21] on the ground similar to reception and pb wikis, difficult communities [20:30:28] Brainrot, hard communies too? Why? [20:30:57] [1/2] What happened [20:30:58] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1454572285246705754/IMG_3788.png?ex=69519381&is=69504201&hm=eefc955f428a31c08243b8a86094f6f0d89ee1edeca41eaff279a0dda2fdbd9c& [20:35:40] there actually are a few of them but i assume theyre just older wikis from before this was a rule? [20:35:59] haven't heard of them [20:36:08] Altough i do wanna say its kinda weird that this is an actual enforced rule on miraheze and yet it's not officially listed anywhere [20:36:27] there could be a section in any of the like guideline pages that lists these banned wiki topics/fandoms [20:38:30] Is there something simpler, Because half of what you said I didn't even know what it meant [20:43:52] steward requests were archived [20:44:29] interesting, I read through the content policy and only reception wikis were specifically mentioned there [20:44:37] maybe I'm just blind idk [20:45:17] there was an rfc to define that [20:45:35] as far as i know it was a stance in wiki creator circle [20:45:43] been a long while [20:45:55] I don't think there's any "simple" way to delete a load of pages, just a few JS scripts or extensions that you'd need to learn [20:46:06] idk how it is now but i assume ai follows it too [20:59:05] They are archived automatically. Did you get a reply? [21:12:59] NA archived them it wasn't automatic [21:14:23] Ok cool [21:39:11] <18.748.837.46, replying to theoneandonlylegroom> What are those [21:51:44] no, everything beyond reception wikis is pretty much extrajudicial by steward decree [21:52:16] I'd rather it be cleaner on an official list that isn't tucked in userspace [21:52:34] but that's been lingering ever since the topic ban framework was botched and was never really tried again [22:16:11] yeahh it was kinda confusing when the only official source that specific fandom wikis wouldnt be allowed was in a voting thing that didnt really seem to favour that proposition [22:17:07] like im not gonna contest a rejection cuz thats stupid but if i had known those wikis weren't allowed i wouldn't have tried to request one in the first place [22:21:44] depending on the scope it is possible for an exception to be granted since in some cases its really about the high bar needed to clear the trust factor/potential risk of negative community draw [22:22:19] [1/2] This kind of summarizes the types of wikis that are looked at carefully in the review process. Remember, the farm is overseen by a non-profit that has an educational mission. So decisions regarding these types of wikis are often based on levels of risk for not complying with policies and/or having a purpose that fits the educational mission [22:22:19] [2/2] [[User:NotAracham/Help:Scrutinized Topics]] [22:22:20]

[22:24:11] the educational mission is a rather rare reason for rejection [22:26:01] I mention it more as a potential mitigating factor for scrutinized topics if such a request incorporates an educational benefit. [22:29:49] that would be fair yeah [22:53:42] What about the stuff on the steward requests? Are they just gone [23:02:59] theyre archived in subpages (e.g. Steward requests/Archive [number])
