[00:27:06] what's the issue here? [00:35:18] i'm actually so, Blind [00:45:22] nevermind i figured it out 👍 [01:34:36] [1/3] https://communities.miraheze.org/wiki/List_of_wikis_by_Matomo_statistics [01:34:37] [2/3] For those of you who are curious about the most popular Miraheze wikis (by number of visitors). [01:34:37] [3/3] The data is badly skewed by scraper bots, as I'm already seeing a few wikis that should not be on this list but still are due to an army of macOS users on Mac 15.6 using a 800x600 display and Google Chrome. [01:36:25] I can target this particular type of machine on CloudFlare after some IRL business unless @pskyechology wants to do it. [01:36:38] feel free to [01:36:46] am focusing on MR rn [01:37:45] Maybe these are applebot which would be a legitimate source of traffic (still annoying that they pollute matomo statistics, so maybe we block off that specific endpoint). [01:40:01] how do you guys customise the popups extension? [01:45:07] hope this isnt annoying but whats the average time it takes to be accepted, cause id like to work on it/plan to use it for a project but my free time before i need to do classwork is dwindling 😭 [01:45:46] i dont mind if it takes long but if ill have to wait i can get started on my work atleast instead of waiting [01:46:09] #productivity [01:50:15] likeeee 4 days max [01:50:29] depends on the wiki queue doe [01:50:57] @bartomelow [01:51:57] oh ok :xsob: opening my schoolwork [01:52:18] miraheze will be my prize [02:09:04] how did you do it though? cause using the hover in dev tools don't work [02:52:33] ^ is the current math estimate based off the rate requests have been actioned in the last fee days [02:59:26] ty! [03:12:30] [1/2] the headings im using for my theme became uglier [03:12:30] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1473155116650463367/image.png?ex=69952e1d&is=6993dc9d&hm=35d89df1b1a1cd6e40cd988c5e8e6272fdf537644ea9b651205c09b5b55a2e9b& [03:12:30] WHAT [03:18:49] that was my reaction too [03:19:00] EXACTLY [03:19:43] these ppl bouta be like [03:20:02] i bet petra just felt bored and did that [03:20:02] [1/2] "im bored." [03:20:03] [2/2] "let's make bad apple that's a good idea" [03:21:16] i love our tech team [03:24:12] what's next? minesweeper that deletes your wiki if you lose? [03:24:36] i can do that [03:24:47] but enough of that [03:24:56] lets code doom in miraheze [03:27:01] Minesweeper but if you lose it drops a DB server [03:27:11] here's a joke [03:27:25] lmao [03:27:27] that will be fun [03:37:06] anyway heres my working minesweeper game [03:37:08] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/User:RevenantShu/Minesweeper.css [03:37:18] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/User:RevenantShu/Minesweeper.js [03:37:26] oh wai [03:37:36] i should have linked the minesweeper page on my wiki instead [03:37:37] lmao [04:57:33] https://criticalrevengeancewiki.miraheze.org/wiki/Minesweeper [04:57:35] here it is [04:57:43] have fun [05:01:28] If I wanted to volunteer for miraheze how to do it? [05:02:50] is it at #volunteering [05:02:54] to ask questions [05:05:33] what would you be interested in? any skills we should know about (mostly technical, like php, sql and of course, configuring mediawiki itself)? [05:11:03] holy shit [05:12:47] it gets kinda annoying at hard diff [05:12:56] you could sometimes just get the bomb when you start [05:13:06] 💥 [05:13:21] Sql, some php, and configuration of wikibase and SPARQL particularly. If you ever wanted help with getting sparql working on wikis I’d be happy to help. [05:13:24] anyway left click to dig and right click for flag [05:14:32] what about mobile [05:14:36] 🥲 [05:16:55] [1/2] yay [05:16:56] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1473186429613113476/Screenshot_2026-02-17_at_00.16.42.png?ex=69954b47&is=6993f9c7&hm=c0c03879eb1c5865ac663b8c5a6786f477d3ee9a316303371da01c58a7f0afec& [05:19:01] go hard diff [05:19:09] [1/2] this is though [05:19:09] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1473186991129493577/Screenshot_2026-02-16_at_11.19.05_PM.png?ex=69954bcd&is=6993fa4d&hm=9d34b8ccdcfea9a09a3d42313f94d451e2968d6378b135a589fac620ba3b3f6e& [05:20:10] i forgot to set dark theme as the default one on theme definitions [05:20:12] oops [05:20:16] im too bad at minesweeper to do that 😔 [05:21:11] its just 99 bombs [05:21:12] trust me [05:22:27] [1/2] i did it [05:22:28] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1473187822230966393/Screenshot_2026-02-16_at_11.22.17_PM.png?ex=69954c93&is=6993fb13&hm=6c30e8565e65e91f4d0f904be82d7bb815d5ce1f1c0cbd48657f43f38c99f566& [05:23:10] [1/3] awesome to hear, sounds like your skills could be used on the technical side of things [05:23:10] [2/3] as for SPARQL, I believe we are still at a point where we don't have the resources for it [05:23:11] [3/3] all our technical tasks can be found at https://issue-tracker.miraheze.org, feel free to take a look around for something that catches your eye, there has to be at least one task around that's just a simple PR to https://github.com/miraheze/mw-config, where our configuration lives [05:23:52] on the non-technical side of things, we could really use more [[WR]]s so that we could say bye bye to AI slop screening new wiki requests [05:23:59]

[05:26:03] the best way to get into wiki reviewing is by... reviewing yourself and asking for feedback from existing reviewers [05:26:33] a few others have done so in #volunteering or by documenting their reviews in their userspace on meta [05:28:12] there's also options on the CVT/admin side of things but I have a relatively poor overview of the "career progression" on that side of the pond [05:28:38] ooh NA is gonna give some more awesome sauce words [05:28:45] What are WRs [05:28:51] wiki reviewers [05:29:09] Would love for this day to come but I appreciate that it takes both a certain personality/judgement and tolerance for shenanigans to find a successful candidate [05:30:22] I'm up for it but not sure if I know policy well enough to be one [05:30:56] policy is learnable, just hope you have the right mindset and personality [05:31:44] until that day comes I will jingle those keys in front of anyone with even the slightest of interest in hopes they might be the next [05:32:19] every volunteer we have reviewing means less usage of AI for us [05:32:21] Well not sure about mindset/personality so idk if I am qualifier [05:32:34] What's going on with the ai? [05:32:45] my mindset is grind all day [05:35:04] my mindset is if it works then it works [05:35:31] I do not have a mindset quote [05:36:44] [1/2] a lot of us don't like using AI to screen reviews, whether it is due to pure ideological reasons or the other issues it brings with it (poor quality at times, susceptibility to gaming, being unaware of certain circumstances) [05:36:44] [2/2] a conservative estimate we made is that we would need about 10 decently contributing reviewers to completely discontinue AI usage [05:37:42] Oh so not a big issue with ai making wikis [05:38:24] we haven't seen much of LLMs being sent here to make wikis, no [05:38:56] and we usually catch on rather fast to weird wikis requested for commercial spam or SEO hijacking [05:40:14] if you can work in a team with others and have the patience to deal with a load of different users (some of which may be rather unfriendly or impatient), then you've got a good base for such a role [05:41:02] i have no insight into how the WR team operates internally so I'm afraid you'll have to ask/wait for someone else [05:41:40] perhaps @notaracham would like to provide some insight, if he has the time [05:41:52] Yeah I'm up for it [05:42:40] i should also mention that it is a rather repetitive task since we do get quite a lot of requests [05:43:02] almost 2000 in january [05:43:38] but, of course, being a volunteer-run org there are no hard requirements for you to do X amount every Y [05:43:50] you contribute however much you can/want [05:45:43] So how would I get involved with it? Could I just start posting which ones in the queue look like violations or good to go? [05:49:34] usually I do see people practicing on the more interesting requests that take some, or even a whole bunch of, nuance. those should put you on the radar faster [05:50:07] as an example: https://discord.com/channels/407504499280707585/1225560610628964423/1471593051184038132 [05:51:50] i've been wondering for the longest time if we should codify an explicit mentoring program for WRs [05:52:48] idk about interesting ones but this one seems okay right https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Special:RequestWikiQueue/74911 [05:53:11] Like it is personal stuff but a defined scope [05:53:16] And this one appears to be way too vague https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Special:RequestWikiQueue/74932 [05:53:27] u do a quiz and if u get one wrong u cant apply for the whole month [05:53:30] 😍 [05:54:30] This one I think needs a bit more explanation of the game https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Special:RequestWikiQueue/74939 I think it is legitimate but a bit badly done, They never even mentioned it is a Roblox game [05:54:32] as much as I would like a low(er) barrier to entry, that is definitely too low and one that the wider community wouldnt support [05:55:18] I should mention I'm not a reviewer myself, and as such I'm not in a position to give good feedback [05:55:37] Is it allowed in the rules to post requests in non-English languages? https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Special:RequestWikiQueue/75047 Either way this one is too vague in scope imo [05:56:28] we allow requests in all languages, translation usually isn't an issue even if we may miss out on some nuance [05:59:58] I have been summoned [06:00:45] https://discord.com/channels/407504499280707585/407537962553966603/1473192659261853706 but while i have your attention: discord's inbox functionality shows you exactly where you have been pinged [06:01:59] Yes but I like acting like a genie/can't be bothered to confirm if the thing has been answered on read back. :EpicFaceMH: [06:02:18] haha fair enough [06:02:25] everyone else is asleep I think [06:02:37] Jokes, mostly. More attention splitting making context hard than anything [06:04:41] I am overtasked and can't provide input right now [06:05:09] that's alright, take care! [06:23:17] Unfortunately having a long WR backlog means that most WRs are not available to review wikis or mentor, so in a time when we need WRs more we are less able to mentor potential candidates. [06:24:12] an awesomely valid point, but I suppose we must sink a little lower to rise even higher [06:24:20] we cannot prioritize short-term over long-term [06:35:04] wrong [06:35:19] ok maybe true soon its a school night [06:51:55] it is now true [07:09:41] is it feasible to code the whole sans fight moveset [07:35:21] I think so. You can do whatever in CSS and JS. [07:41:51] toby undertale sure as hell didnt know what he was doing so you definitely cant go wrong making it in js [07:44:18] Like, you can play the original DOOM game in your browser's favicon, which is nuts. [08:00:48] so here [08:01:38] [1/3] i know how to do headers, texts, but not infobox text size [08:01:38] [2/3] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1473227881621618709/image.png?ex=699571e2&is=69942062&hm=f3b970d0e3bf3c6ae1d3ad3f06e7dabcc91388e810c52cc6221961ba26848ac4& [08:01:39] [3/3] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1473227881944453315/image.png?ex=699571e2&is=69942062&hm=9a3d43809d9e2dc03c866e3cbdd63c53264518e2f897caca4e6a669504bd00ac& [08:01:40] and tiugh [08:01:46] since i used Body [08:02:12] then the size of the CSS box is a little to short [08:03:31] [1/3] and for this, this template... i needed to make font size 180% instead of 100% [08:03:32] [2/3] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1473228355750068298/image.png?ex=69957253&is=699420d3&hm=1b6da0bdb68a0291ccd64c1fc2c9284b59b0b5550747d5af103054ff6e035d43& [08:03:32] [3/3] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1473228356186279937/image.png?ex=69957253&is=699420d3&hm=2a000a25872ae351d8dc1534371851197748a55ec2f2f3707c9563a0cc4907bb& [08:04:06] is there any way to make text font without including the ENTIRE body? [08:04:44] i know how do i do font size, i just need the right variables for text and infobox text [09:07:18] Hi [09:30:55] [1/6] to set infobox text size u can do [09:30:55] [2/6] ``` [09:30:55] [3/6] .portable-infobox { [09:30:56] [4/6] font-size: [09:30:56] [5/6] } [09:30:56] [6/6] ``` [09:36:47] [1/2] but how do i do it in this kind of code? [09:36:47] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1473251825330295004/image.png?ex=6995882e&is=699436ae&hm=56e10a9f6223f8514168b3773434b179f2addcd8bec6c08136bf197652e2b7e8& [11:03:43] That's CSS code, you're going to have to edit your wiki's skin CSS (I think for yours it'd be the MediaWiki:Vector.css page) [12:33:35] Where would one report a bug with CodeMirror 6 and syntax highlighting? I'm not sure it's MH-specific or local to my device, but with the 2010 editor + CM 6 + syntax highlighting, on mobile, the keyboard never appears in a text field. (Turning off syntax highlighting fixes it) [12:39:20] [[Phorge]] and we can upstream if needed [12:39:21]

[12:40:37] Thanks! I think it might be the SyntaxHighlighting extension (which I'm using rather than the user preference - it renders faster). Will test before making a ticket [14:34:42] hi [14:38:27] [1/2] Im considering making a wiki for an nfsw indie game, but im a fan not the developer. [14:38:27] [2/2] Governance policy part is slightly confusing to me. Will i be able to have exclusive control of my wiki and later share editing rights with trusted people i invite if there is interest in the games community? [14:55:18] [1/2] governance policy is mostly complicated because there are a lot of different wikis that have completely different command structures. [14:55:18] [2/2] the answer to your question is yes. https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Help:How_to_manage_who_can_edit_my_wiki gives an overview of how to manage that [15:13:48] thanks [15:59:07] Many sub-pages dont even need pictures, or just 1 for an item / character its about. But there are 1-2 i have in mind that would be a collection of multiple dozens of pics (cataloging easter eggs with screenshots for example) . Thats still fair on a wiki right? [16:05:43] hmm [16:06:15] So i use Vector for Infobox? [16:22:33] if you only want the styling on the vector skin, yes [16:23:06] do you mean styling? [16:23:29] i use common skin for everything [16:28:29] i have some images saved in a cargo table, how do i change how to display them? they all have a frame by default [16:42:13] <.terrorblades> [1/2] I'm sorry if this is something that has been clearly stated somewhere: [16:42:13] <.terrorblades> [2/2] Who do I contact about porting over my wiki? I have had a long work day and my dyslexic eyes are tired [16:46:27] [[Migrating a wiki to Miraheze]] [16:46:28]

[16:46:41] wait [16:47:06] [[Moving a wiki to Miraheze]] [16:47:06]

[16:47:41] [1/2] >>> If it's a small wiki, where you're the only editor, and you don't mind losing the page history, you can copy and paste the text in the source editor from one wiki to the other. [16:47:41] [2/2] If your dump is really small (less than few kilobytes), you can try Special:Import on your wiki (not this wiki, Miraheze Meta). Images cannot be restored imported using that page. If the import is small enough, your import should finish, and you’ll be able to use your wiki. [16:48:58] [1/5] >>> If your XML dump file is big enough that MediaWiki will likely fail to process it in an appropriate amount of time (files over a few kilobytes), you’ll have to request that a member of the Technology team import it for you. To request that we import the file, please use Special:RequestImport and fill in the form. [16:48:59] [2/5] For image imports, please use [[Phorge]] (Phorge account required). You can send us your images file in a few different ways: [16:48:59] [3/5] * On the Phorge task, paste a link to where it can be downloaded from (i.e. Google Drive, Dropbox) [16:48:59] [4/5] * Send it to tech-mediawiki@miraheze.org [16:48:59] [5/5] * If it’s small enough, upload it directly to Phorge [16:49:10] [[phorge]] [16:49:10]

[16:52:07] As long as your entire wiki is not a media repository, you'll be fine. Some wikis have pages with hundreds of images.
