I am aware that questions like this have been asked many times before, but I'm going to ask it again: how much longer will the upgrade to 1.35 take? I know an exact time is impossible, but at least give us an estimate of how long it'll take (weeks? months? years?). I've noticed that a few wikis have already upgraded, but there are nearly 13,000 wikis on ShoutWiki at the time I'm writing this. The upgrade taking a very long time (over 2 years, if I'm correct) wouldn't be nearly as bad had it not been for the fact that ShoutWiki's wiki creator <s>is broken and will not be fixed until after the upgrade</s> despite being fixed, will not come back online until the upgrade is done.<br />
<br />
A personal situation about how the excessively long wait for an upgrade has affected a wiki I run here on ShoutWiki: [http://tiresomewikis.shoutwiki.com/wiki/Main_Page Tiresome Wikis Wiki]. This wiki is about criticizing wikis with problems, from poorly-written pages to a bad userbase. It takes the form of a "reception wiki", a wiki that explains why something is good/bad/average/etc. through a series of numbered pointers, with its pros and cons separated into different headers. Anyway, reception wikis are usually separated into positive/negative pairs, and one day, I decided that TWW needed a positive wiki praising good wikis to complement it ([http://tiresomewikis.shoutwiki.com/wiki/User:Tali64%5E2/Creating_a_sister_wiki discussion]), but I had a problem with creating the positive wiki: there was no wiki farm that would host it. [https://fandom.com Fandom] might've shut it down because it was a reception wiki (back in September 2018, Fandom had decided that negative content didn't have a place on its platform, so it started deleting wikis that are negative in nature, including all of the reception wikis, even the positive ones for some strange reason), [https://miraheze.org Miraheze] had declined requests for a similar wiki (on there, wikis have to be manually requested instead of being able to be created by anyone with an account), and of course, ShoutWiki's wiki creator was broken like it is now. The captcha library of [https://editthis.info EditThis.info] (the wikifarm I eventually chose for the positive wiki, which I ended up naming [https://editthis.info/creative_wikis_wiki Creative Wikis Wiki], though it's moving to a free web host soon) was broken at the time, also leaving its wiki creator broken. However, unlike ShoutWiki, EditThis.info managed to fix its wiki creator somewhat quickly (around a few months compared to ''over two years''). The huge downside to being on EditThis.info is the sheer lack of features. On there, image uploading is disabled, external link submitting requires a bypass to what I think is a spam filter (it could also be a security guard against bad links), and many, ''many'' features from MediaWiki extensions are missing, including <ref> tags, which are important, but not required, for providing evidence for claims made in CWW's pages. This has forced me to make a workaround involving <nowiki><sup></nowiki> tags and the fact that external links typed [likethis.com] display a number. What is worse for EditThis.info, however, is that it's running a very old version of MediaWiki (1.15) and its admin doesn't even want to upgrade to the latest version. Thus, ShoutWiki is automatically better than EditThis.info in upgrading.<br />
<br />
A problem of this size needs a effective and fast solution. Here are some ideas I have to fix this issue:<br />
#Hire more staff to help with the workload. I'm personally not interested in being a member of ShoutWiki staff, since I'm currently busy with other things in life.<br />
#<s>Fix the wiki creator now so that it doesn't have to be broken until the end of time. There are three ways I see to do this:<br />
#*I remember that a member of ShoutWiki staff said that CreateWiki (not to be confused with the extension of the same name used by Miraheze) would work better on an older version of MediaWiki, so an easy fix for the broken wiki creator would be to downgrade to an older version of MediaWiki 1.34 (ironic coming from a post about upgrading, I know). This takes no effort at all, and as far as I know, nothing would be broken.<br />
#*Rewrite CreateWiki now and save the 1.35 upgrade for later. Debatably, this would be even worse for ShoutWiki, as now progress on the 1.35 upgrade would be slower. However, the one massive benefit is that CreateWiki would not be dependent on the 1.35 upgrade finishing, lessening the effect of the slowness of the upgrade itself. This raises the issue of if CreateWiki would need to be rewritten again after the upgrade, but this can be solved by rewriting CreateWiki in a way that ensures it'll work now and later.</s> Staff have confirmed that the wiki creator has already been fixed but will not come back until after the upgrade to make sure that bugs don't reappear, rendering this entire section pointless.<br />
#*<s>Make CreateWiki open-source so that the community can fix it. There are some ShoutWiki community members that are technically inclined and could probably fix it.</s> Staff have denied my Phabricator task about this and disabled my Phabricator account.<br />
#*Somehow find a way to automate the 1.35 upgrade. It's not clear if there's any automation involved in the upgrade, but if there isn't, then this would make it a lot easier.<br />
<br />
At this point, ShoutWiki's upgrade to 1.35 has taken so long that 1.35 is going to reach its EOL only 8 months from now. The fact that the upgrade is taking so long has made many question if ShoutWiki is truly alive, or if it's just a living zombie: still technically up and running, but practically dead in the sense that its growth has stalled. When I joined ShoutWiki back in November 2021, its wiki creator was broken; now, it's still broken. ShoutWiki is unique for being the only known wiki farm right now without a working wiki creator. If Fandom's wiki creator went down for even a day, a lot of users would be asking questions/complaining on their hub wiki (Community Central) about when it would be back up again. Miraheze's CreateWiki tool is currently broken after their upgrade to MediaWiki 1.39 (which for ShoutWiki, will not happen until at least 2040), and their [https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Special:RequestWikiQueue wiki requests queue] is piling up like crazy. It's only been a few days since their upgrade. If ShoutWiki wants to remain a viable option for hosting wikis, then Staff need to complete the 1.35 upgrade as soon as they possibly can. I know that they're busy with other things in their lives, but it's inexcusable for a wikifarm of ShoutWiki's size to not have a working wiki creator. Hopefully, Staff can have it running again soon.

: Just a few comments:<br />
:* Disclaimer: I am not staff.<br />
:* Staff here aren't "hired." They're unpaid. Despite the [[ShoutWiki Staff]] page, "staff" is Jack and Lewis.<br />
:* The problem with the wiki creator (as I understand it) is that it makes direct database changes, but WikiMedia changes the MediaWiki database schema every version. As a result of an upgrade (i.e. schema change), un-updated WikiCreator was causing database corruption. No content was destroyed (or so it seems), but the database records that contain content became unlinked. Pages lost their content. Pages lost their histories. Histories lost their comments. It didn't happen all at once. It happened progressively over time. It still hasn't been all recovered, and (at this point, I suspect) never will be. Apparently it's not possible to recover from backup. (I don't know if that's a limitation of the backup software or of Lewis. When I suggested recovery, Lewis said he would not revert the database. I pointed out that recovery and reversion were not the same thing. Discussion ended.)<br />
: I could say more, but I'll leave it there. --[[User:Saftzie|Saftzie]] ([[User talk:Saftzie|talk]]) 21:48, 27 January 2023 (UTC)<br />
::To respond to your points:<br />
::*Since you aren't staff, that means that your points are community comments, not official answers. I'd prefer if a Staff member would answer the question I asked in my original post (how much longer will it take to upgrade to 1.35?), which you failed to address.<br />
::*I know that Staff are unpaid, and the fact that there are only two Staff members just proves my point that ShoutWiki needs more help.<br />
::*In that case, the real solution would be to rewrite CreateWiki so that it doesn't make direct database changes in creating wikis. My point about releasing CreateWiki publicly still stands.<br />
::Overall, the point I'm trying to make is this: ShoutWiki's wiki creator has been down not because of the (possibly) upcoming 1.35 upgrade, but because of the way it was written to be version-specific in its workings. Staff's priority right now should be this:<br />
::#Completing the 1.35 upgrade<br />
::#Rewriting CreateWiki<br />
::#HTTPS (something that Staff have wanted to do for a while, because no one wants their password stolen)<br />
::If I had to give one piece of advice to Staff, it'd be this: Research possible ways to automate the 1.35 upgrade, then focus your attention on rewriting CreateWiki to not make direct database changes, if possible. {{ping|Lcawte}} since only you know the exact details of the 1.35 upgrade, please answer this question: How much longer will the 1.35 upgrade take? If an answer to that question is impossible, then answer this: How long will it be until the majority of ShoutWiki wikis start upgrading to 1.35? ShoutWiki's wiki creator has been broken for over two years ''and counting'', and it being fixed depends on the upgrade being completed. Also, its social media accounts appear to be abandoned, which is not a good look for any website in general. This wiki (which is ShoutWiki's central wiki) only sees a few edits occasionally. At this point, I'm not confident that ShoutWiki will last beyond a few more years if this continues. [[User:Tali64^2|Tali64^2]] ([[User talk:Tali64^2|talk]]) 22:38, 27 January 2023 (UTC)<br />
:::UPDATE: I've made a [https://phabricator.shoutwiki.com/T320 Phabricator/Phorge task about making CreateWiki open-source]. [[User:Tali64^2|Tali64^2]] ([[User talk:Tali64^2|talk]]) 01:08, 31 January 2023 (UTC)<br />
::::<s>ANOTHER UPDATE: A staff member closed my task and left what I assume is a sarcastic comment on it. I'm starting to think that Staff don't really care about ShoutWiki anymore. [[User:Tali64^2|Tali64^2]] ([[User talk:Tali64^2|talk]]) 18:12, 31 January 2023 (UTC)</s> Offhand comment I made about Staff, please ignore<br />
:::::FINAL UPDATE: ShoutWiki has finally upgraded to 1.35! However, the wiki creator is restricted to staff only. Why is that? [[User:Tali64^2|Tali64^2]] ([[User talk:Tali64^2|talk]]) 11:58, 28 February 2023 (UTC)<br />
:::::: Because the upgrade is still in progress, site stability will always take priority, and there's still extensive testing and review to do on CreateWiki. I'd suggest you remove any idea of using it from your plans for the near future. --[[User:Lcawte|Lewis Cawte]] ([[User talk:Lcawte|talk]]) <staff /> 00:21, 1 March 2023 (UTC)<br />
:::::::To add to this, there is a plan to provide a debrief blog when the site is stable, any remaining bugs are ironed out, etc, and this stuff moving forward, but, we'll cross that bridge when we come to it. More important fish to fry at the moment though, both on ShoutWiki and the day job. --[[User:Lcawte|Lewis Cawte]] ([[User talk:Lcawte|talk]]) <staff /> 00:45, 1 March 2023 (UTC)<br />
<br />
It would be useful to have a tool to manage a wiki's settings. After a wiki is created, the creator cannot change all-wiki settings without contacting Staff.

*'''Note:''' Spambots and staff deleting spambot edits are exempt from these rules.<br />
<br />
=== User criteria ===<br />
*The adopting user must not have adopted a wiki in the last 30 days.<br />
*The adopting user must have made at least 100 constructive mainspace edits.<br />
*The adopting user must have shown an obvious interest in the wiki's topic.<br />
<br />
== Adopting a wiki ==<br />
To adopt a wiki, simply fill out the below details, formatting it in the same way:<br />
<br />
=== Name of wiki ===<br />

Hi Jack Phoenix,<br /><br />
I want you to add some extensions and namespaces to [http://krsw.shoutwiki.com/ my wiki]. would you add them?<br />
<br />
# About extensions, my wiki needs [[mediawikiwiki:Extension:WikiEditor|WikiEditor]] and [[mediawikiwiki:Extension:Abusefilter|Abusefilter]] extension because my wiki editors think badly about editing environment and my wiki suffers from vandalist often.<br />
# About namespaces, my wiki needs five namespaces: "資料", "ニュース", "図書", "ファーム" and "画像集". they mean "Database", "News", "Books", "Farm" and "Galleries".<br />In addition, I want you to add these alias to the namespaces with [[mediawikiwiki:Manual:$wgNamespaceAliases|$wgNamespaceAliases]].<br />
#* 資料→"Database", "Databases", "Source", "Sources", "DB"<br />
#* ニュース→"News"<br />
#* 図書→"Book", "Books"<br />
#* ファーム→"Farm", "Farms", "Incubator"<br />
#* 画像集→"Gallery", "Galleries"<br />

It appears some features do no longer work at [http://seikai.shoutwiki.com/ seikai.shoutwiki.com].<br />
I have no idea what happened.<br />
* The tables that have hide/show features are now all visible.<br />
* Information text below images don't show up anymore; happens with new articles<br />
* I don't see the dump button on the statistic page<br />
* Nested parser templates to convert text into image glyphs don't seem to work. Well, they worked on wikkii, though. No clue here.<br />

:As for the "database dumps on request" feature, it has been disabled since October 2013.

<br />
::Yeah, I found out about wikkii's demise recently, too. [http://seikai.shoutwiki.com/wiki/Template:Baronh main looping template]; it parses a string (was perfectly working part); and tries to parse double letters if fails exits to outer loop (this part doesn't seem to work regardless). I think going back one letter doesn't work. It seems only [http://seikai.shoutwiki.com/wiki/Template:SandboxA bad code] works (actually trying to debug the complexity). The actual [http://seikai.shoutwiki.com/wiki/Template:Transl_Ath replacer part] seems fine. The markup language makes it hard to look through sorry.

<br />
:::The collapsible table on [[s:w:seikai:Anime]] seems to be working for me on Internet Explorer 11 under Windows 7. What browser/OS are you using?<br />
<br />
:::As for the file [[s:w:seikai:File:Potentials.png]] on [[s:w:seikai:Maneuver (orbit)]], there are two separate issues in there:<br />
<br />
:::#You need <code>|thumb</code> in the file "parameters" for the caption to show up, i.e. <code><nowiki>[[File:Potentials.png|right|200px|thumb|region of orbital energy</nowiki></code><br />
:::#The second usage of the [[s:w:seikai:Template:Legend|Legend template]] contains the problematic character =, which is normally a part of the template syntax, much like the pipe character. So MediaWiki interprets <code><nowiki>{{Legend|#0A0A0A|forbidden region=energetic inacessible}}</nowiki></code> as "first (unnamed) parameter to the template called Legend is #0A0A0A and second parameter is a named parameter called 'forbidden region' and its value is 'energetic inacessible'". This, obviously, isn't what you meant, but MediaWiki is fooled into thinking that. You ''should'' be able to work around this by creating a template which contains nothing but the character = and then using that template instead of the = character, like this: <code><nowiki>{{Legend|#0A0A0A|forbidden region{{equals}}energetic inacessible}}</nowiki></code><br />
<br />
:::Yikes, the looping template is indeed pretty complicated! I'll try to take a closer look at it during the next week and hopefully succeed in wrapping my head around it &mdash; wikitext isn't making it very easy. :-/ --[[User:Jack Phoenix|Jack Phoenix]]<staff /> <sub>([[User talk:Jack Phoenix|Contact]])</sub> 00:12, 5 July 2015 (UTC)<br />

<br />
::::Yeah, I wish there's an editor that would make it easier to see the structure and an engine to test these things off-line. That's why I split it all into templates to minimize the confusing code. The outer loop goes through each letter in the string and only goes into the inner loop to check for the double letters. It's a simple algorithm but the IFs are making things complicated to see. I have debugged it numerous times but still can't see the problem other than guessing - the string pointer doesn't go back if the double letter test fails.

== Semantic MediaWiki on "my" wikis ==<br />
<br />
Hi Jack,<br/>It seems that Semantic MediaWiki doesn't update the properties anymore. See for [[s:w:fr.24:Spécial:Browse/Michael_O'Neill]] for an example. Many semantic data are written on the [[s:w:fr.24:Michael O'Neill|main article]] but nothing appears here. Is it possible to debug it, or is it because of the use of HVVM instead of PHP? May be it's time to upgrade SMW? Thank you for your answer. --[[User:LIMAFOX76|LIMAFOX76]] ([[User talk:LIMAFOX76|talk]]) 14:21, 7 July 2015 (UTC)<br />

<br />
:: So we've not touched SMW at all. I don't intend on doing so. When 1.25 first came out, there was talk in the developer community of it breaking with 1.25 out of the box. I've no idea if they've fixed that. But we also have a number of other wikis using lots of odd little SMW add-on extensions, which are poorly maintained in most cases. These create a huge dependency mess which is a '''huge''' hassle to deal with. Upgrading SMW is one of many items on my TODO list, but most things above it are higher priority or far less enraging. --[[User:Lcawte|Lewis Cawte]] ([[User talk:Lcawte|talk]]) <staff /> 10:15, 12 July 2015 (UTC)<br />

== Article Background Image ==<br />
Is it possible to have background images for an article that's layered above the wiki background and below the article content? If so is it possible to have one at the top and one at the bottom? Are even more images possible e.g. for automatic adjusting to page size? [[User:Almael|Almael]] ([[User talk:Almael|talk]]) 08:18, 12 July 2015 (UTC)<br />
<br />
==Extensions==<br />
Could you please activate extensions needed for the use of [[s:w:seikai:Template:Side_box|Side box template]] and [[s:w:seikai:Template:About|About template]]. It appears invoking ''Side box'' and ''hatenote'' do not work. Magic word [[s:w:seikai:Template::DISPLAYTITLE|''DISPLAYTITLE'' template]] doesn't work either. Example usages [[s:w:seikai:Seikai_no_Senki_1]] and [[s:w:seikai:Seikai_no_Senki]]. [[User:Almael|Almael]] ([[User talk:Almael|talk]]) 03:05, 21 July 2015 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:(How'd I manage to miss this before? Agh, so sorry!) The <code><nowiki>{{#invoke}}</nowiki></code> parser function as well as the <code>Module:</code> namespace and other related things are a part of the [[mw:Extension:Scribunto|Scribunto]] extension, which I've now enabled on [[s:w:seikai]]. You ''may'' need to purge the caches of the related templates etc. by making a null (or otherwise insignificant) edit to the templates in question.<br /><code><nowiki>{{DISPLAYTITLE:}}</nowiki></code>, which is a built-in magic word, is restricted by a separate setting called [[mw:Manual:$wgRestrictDisplayTitle|<code>$wgRestrictDisplayTitle</code>]], which attempts to ensure that the new title normalizes back to the page's canonical title, i.e. you can use DISPLAYTITLE to apply cosmetic changes like bolding etc. but you can't (by default) make the title of the "Foo" page show up as "Bar". I've turned off <code>$wgRestrictDisplayTitle</code> on your wiki, so you're able to set arbitrary titles w/ DISPLAYTITLE now. --[[User:Jack Phoenix|Jack Phoenix]]<staff /> <sub>([[User talk:Jack Phoenix|Contact]])</sub> 20:06, 28 August 2015 (UTC)<br />

:Done. As a side note, when requesting an extension which [[mw:Extension default namespaces|adds new namespaces]] it's usually best to avoid creating pages in said namespaces, because once such an extension is activated, the pre-existing pages which are prefixed with the new namespace's name become inaccessible until the server-side maintenance script [[mw:Manual:namespaceDupes.php|namespaceDupes.php]] is run. In this case, there was only one page, so it was a very quick fix to do. --[[User:Jack Phoenix|Jack Phoenix]]<staff /> <sub>([[User talk:Jack Phoenix|Contact]])</sub> 20:06, 28 August 2015 (UTC)<br />

== Blocking of User:Webkinzdiva1 ==<br />
<br />
Hi Jack, <br />
<br />
Thank you for stopping by my page and letting me know that Webkinzdiva contacted you. <br />
<br />
They were blocked because I am wanting a wiki where I can control who joins, and meant to make it private, but am unable change it. In the past I have had issues with users making edits that I didn't approve of, and due to that I block anyone that joins that I don't know. I'm on a well known Webkinz Fan Site (Webkinz Insider) as well as Facebook, and I encourage people wanting to edit to private message me either place or email me, so I know who they are. <br />
<br />
While I'm not really looking for more wiki editors at this point in time, I would be willing to consider letting webkinzdiva join if they contact me. They can reach me one of the following ways:<br />
<br />
* Send a Private Message to dancerchick914 on Webkinz Insider<br />
* Send a Private Message to Michele Webkinz (facebook.com/dancerchick914)<br />
* Or email me at dancerchick914@facebook.com<br />
<br />
I had future plans to create a contact me page on my wiki for if and when I am welcoming more editors, but as I'm not actively looking for editors, had not done so. I did go ahead and edit the main page with a link to a contact information page, though, and a note on there saying that users joining without consulting Michele [myself] first will be blocked. <br />
<br />

== Hoping you can help! ==<br />
<br />
Hello, I am hoping you might be able to help me, though, I am not sure if you can or if you are the right person to be asking. So, in developing my own ShoutWiki page (which is being used as a database for an online RPG game), I have attempting to install multiple templates from the main Wikipedia. However, some several templates, the "Show" / "Hide" option is no longer working; the template stays uncollapsed, and it's causing a bit of issues. Is there something within the coding that is not allowing this to work properly? It used to, but it no longer does.<br />
<br />
Also, is there a why to bypass the "#invoke" code? I've been able to re-write the template setup on multiple templates, but there is one in particular that is simply not working out. [[User:MusicNation|MusicNation]] ([[User talk:MusicNation|talk]]) 13:37, 15 March 2016 (UTC)<br />
: The main reason is that unlike ShoutWiki, Wikipedia uses Lua via Scribunto (the infamous #invoke command).

== Oasis vs Monobook ==<br />
<br />
Hello, [http://commandos.shoutwiki.com/wiki/User_talk:Jack_Phoenix again and sorry, but I need a little thing] Jack Phoenix. I'm user in wikia, and I love the skin Oasis of wikia, but I can edit in wikia, for personal reasons, but I can edit in ShoutWiki, and I don't like the skin of Monobook, and the skins of the preferences, and my question is: <br />
<br />
I can install skin of oasis, in my computer or is possible use skin Oasis in Shoutwiki? --[[User:Pastelerohelper92|Pastelerohelper92]] ([[User talk:Pastelerohelper92|talk]]) 06:15, 11 April 2016 (UTC)<br />

== TOC, Namespaces, and HTML ==<br />
<br />
Hi, I sent emails to support@shoutwiki.com, but no replies so far. So writing here. My wiki is bkdrum.shoutwiki.com. I need these namespaces: তালিকা, সময়রেখা, বই, প্রবন্ধ। It's okay if you do not include the corresponding talk pages. And could you please add this to localsettings.php: $wgDefaultUserOptions['numberheadings'] = 1 ? And is it at all possible to allow html in my wiki as it is private? If it is not possible could you at least allow the "img" and "iframe" tags? I really need these two. Nothing risky will happen for these as I am the only member of the wiki at present, and #members will not exceed 10, everyone is personally known to me. -- [[User:Muhammad2017|Muhammad2017]] ([[User talk:Muhammad2017|talk]]) 08:09, 9 May 2016 (UTC)<br />

:Hi Muhammad2017, apologies for the delay! We had some DNS issues (which are now resolved) with the support ticket site, preventing us from accessing it and thus replying to emails sent to the support address.<br />I can add the namespaces once you provide the talkspace names &mdash; MediaWiki mandates that all namespaces must have a corresponding talkspace equivalent, even if it doesn't really make any sense (i.e. Forum & Forum_talk:); once you've done that, I'll also add the $wgDefaultUserOptions definition in.<br />As for allowing raw HTML, I discussed it with [[User:Lcawte|Lcawte]], our [[technical staff|Chief Technical Officer]], and we both came to the conclusion that this is something that we do not want to allow on ShoutWiki. Sorry about that! Do note that you can embed images from external sources into your wiki once you've whitelisted the domain(s) in <code><nowiki>[[MediaWiki:External image whitelist]]</nowiki></code>; see the [[mw:Manual:$wgEnableImageWhitelist|MediaWiki.org page for <code>$wgEnableImageWhitelist</code>]] for details. --[[User:Jack Phoenix|Jack Phoenix]]<staff /> <sub>([[User talk:Jack Phoenix|Contact]])</sub> 11:43, 10 May 2016 (UTC)<br />

== Username "Shit" ==<br />
<br />
Why In ShoutWiki cannot create a account with a inapropiate username? Regards --[[User:Pastelerohelper92|Pastelerohelper92]] ([[User talk:Pastelerohelper92|talk]]) 07:24, 14 May 2016 (UTC)<br />
<br />
== Why I'm Here? To be explained... ==<br />
<br />
Hey, Jack, I'm writing to you #1 as an apology for something I did back in 2012 that I probably shouldn't have done because you guys do not have the resources to put up with things like Google does, and #2 to...I guess, give an update on where I'm at in life and recent projects involving the Vanilla Monaco fork I've been hacking at. I've come a long way since I started screwing around here back in June 2012, and I honestly didn't expect you to still be here when I ran by yesterday.<br />
<br />
=== #1: My Apology/Confession ===<br />
I apologize for using resources under multiple accounts. I was 13, almost 14 when I first came by here. I'm 18, and have come a long way. Let me introduce myself using my real name, Gage Morgan. I have used other usernames as separate aliases, such as Gerbilman, 17morgm, and this one, which is the only one I have access to. It's all the same person. I am looking back now, thinking about it, and I kinda feel bad now for wasting resources. I realize (now) that you guys put the two wiki limit on there for a reason. I don't even want to know the hell it must be to set up a server and get it connected a registrar...but, anyway, that's my confession, and I just want you guys to know that I'm sorry for being such a pain in the rear back then.<br />
<br />
I contacted you guys too often. I really did. You are here for serious stuff, not the BS I put you through. So, unless you respond to this, I will not bug you. However, I just turned 18 on the fifth of this month, and I have no idea why, even back then, I was using a fake name. I'm not sure why I was paranoid back then, either. I guess the thoughts my parents put in my head were the usual Republican fear-mongering that happens in the US.<br />
<br />
I also want you to know that you probably did the right thing by turning me down on that internship I kept bugging you about, because although I'm a bit more qualified now, I was not in any way then.<br />
<br />
That's my confession, and my apology. I felt I needed to take responsibility for that, considering I have shared hosting at DreamHost that I have to manage for my startup (we're developing a new operating system) and I understand now what you meant by "hosting ain't cheap." If shared hosting costs that much, I'm not even gonna ask what VPS is.<br />
<br />
=== #2: The Update On Life (My Contribution To Society) ===<br />
I am now ready for the second part. I am not fluent in PHP, so object-oriented PHP is not necessarily my forte, but I have done my best at giving the dantman-Haley-Arcane Monaco port a ShoutWiki-esque Community box. It's definitely not the best, but it's a start. I used the News extension for the recent changes in that box, and I would definitely appreciate any pointers to make it better.<br />
<br />
[[File:UpdateOnLife.png|right|thumbnail|My mock-up of ShoutWiki's Community box in Monaco (it ain't perfect!)]]<br />
<br />
As you can see, the port itself was modded (those sideboxes look like crap when left to their own devices, had to mod CSS) and that I was able to figure out the username (partially).<br />
<br />
MediaWiki's codebase is the definition of PHP hell, IMO. I've also worked with WordPress, which I'd go out on a limb and say is the most beautiful piece of PHP code I've ever worked with. <br />
<br />
The issue I have with MediaWiki is that I cannot figure out a clear, clean (non-hackish) way of doing things. Things like:<br />
<br />
if (user is logged in) {<br />
Welcome back, (retrieve username following conditional)<br />
} else {<br />
Show that elegant green button that the monaco port doesn't have for some reason<br />
}<br />
<br />
I know that you guys haven't released your implementation of Monaco, but I also am aware that Wikia doesn't currently use a "stock" version of Linux on their servers. I found a list of mods to the Linux kernel on their company GitHub, so there's that.<br />
<br />
Also, don't know how to format the "Latest Activity" box to show just the page names, usernames, and just the simple hours/days etc. that you guys have. <br />
<br />
I am considering doing an edit to the way that WikiEditor works, because Monaco is falling apart on vanilla, and signs of age are showing here as well, take a look at the "MORE WIKIS" button on the top of your implementation. But back to WikiEditor: I want to re-theme it to look like Monaco, and use Monaco sprites. The version (if any, because I have no idea if PHP and whatnot will work with me; I didn't think the redneckery image here would work either, but it did) will be on my current GitHub. Speaking of, after doing a bugfix the code is available here: https://github.com/MGageMorgan/monaco-port.<br />
<br />
The bits are out there. If you are this far, Jack, I thank you for taking the time out of your day to hear me out. Not many people actually read until the end because (millennials). Thank you for your time.<br />
<br />
Sincerely,<br />

== Changes on the Shadowhunters wiki ==<br />
Greetings! My wiki is fairly new but I would like to request a couple of things for the wiki: http://shadowhunters.shoutwiki.com/wiki/Main_Page<br />
<br />
* The creation of two custom namespaces: "Film" and "TV".<br />
* The switch to the Vector skin.<br />
** In line with this, I was wondering if it's possible for you to change the background or font color of some of the windows (like the ones at the bottom of the edit screen and when you go to Preferences) where the background is white while the text is gray with yellow links, making it hard to read. Is this something that I can/must request or something I can change with the CSS?<br />
<br />
Additionally, I would like to ask: are there limitations to the free version of wikis, aside from the presence of ads? Or please redirect me to a page that details this (I've tried looking, I swear).<br />
<br />
Thanks in advance! ~ [[User:Rwtia64|<span style="color:#8b0000;">red</span>]][[Message_Wall:Rwtia64|wall]][[Special:Contributions/Rwtia64|<sup><span style="color:#000099;">64</span></sup>]] 20:05, 17 September 2016 (UTC)<br />
: Jack, or one of the other staff, would have to be the ones to create namespaces and change your default skin. If you want to change colors or fonts, those are things you would do in [[s:w:shadowhunters:MediaWiki:Common.css]] or, possibly, [[s:w:shadowhunters:MediaWiki:Vector.css]] once Vector is your default skin. What do you mean by "limitations," though? --[[User:Saftzie|Saftzie]] ([[User talk:Saftzie|talk]]) 22:02, 17 September 2016 (UTC)<br />
<br />
::Thanks! My two requests still stand. As for limitations, I mean things like size of the file storage particularly—like one of the hosts I canvassed before choosing ShoutWiki had a 100MB limit for unpaid sites, and free users can't change the favicon, things like that. Thanks again. ~ [[User:Rwtia64|<span style="color:#8b0000;">red</span>]][[Message_Wall:Rwtia64|wall]][[Special:Contributions/Rwtia64|<sup><span style="color:#000099;">64</span></sup>]] 03:15, 18 September 2016 (UTC)<br />
::: There is a 100Mb limit for the size of each file upload. You can change the favicon. If any individual wiki pushes the limit of the farm's capacity as a whole, I suppose there might be a maximum capacity policy implemented, but there isn't one now. ShoutWiki wouldn't make a very good cloud storage facility, anyway. MediaWiki really isn't built for that. In the meantime, there's no limit on the number of pages or the number of files you can have. --[[User:Saftzie|Saftzie]] ([[User talk:Saftzie|talk]]) 03:44, 18 September 2016 (UTC)<br />

Although I don't agree with the mass-exodus assessment, there are a few extra steps that I'll be making sure we get in place to ensure it doesn't immediately kill the service. The main one being finally getting around to putting some limits into Special:Import - users like to try and import massive wikis themselves, and Special:Import isn't designed to do that. There have been occasions where this has significantly disrupted the service for others.

Um, I don't know what any problem there is for me to deal with. The complaints I saw had to do with people not liking the Bad Webcomics Wiki to begin with, e. g. "How dare you trash-talk my webcomic!" Or am I missing something? {{unsigned|Long Tom|04:11 January 16, 2017}}<br />
<br />
:Hi Long Tom, thanks for your swift reply! I'll have to admit I didn't look ''too'' closely at the reported problems, just took a look at the total amount of them reported from the Bad Webcomics Wiki. On [[s:w:badwebcomicswiki:Special:ProblemReports]] you'll see a list of those problems. By clicking on the little magnifying glass icon in the "Problem ID" column you can expand each entry to show what the user who submitted the problem report wrote.<br />Then on the rightmost column, titled "Actions", you can choose what action to take. Clicking on the green "OK" button marks the report as fixed; clicking on the red X marks the problem as "closed" (sounds like this is what you'll be wanting for most of these issues); clicking on the warning icon marks the report as "needs ShoutWiki staff help" (for software bugs and other such things not directly related to your wiki's content); the default state is "pending", which is represented by the rightmost green arrow icon.<br />Based on a quick glance at the reports, some have probably been fixed (related to old vandalism/spam), some content-related ones might require attention from an experienced contributor of the wiki ([[s:w:badwebcomicswiki:Special:ProblemReports/184|#184]]?) and some appear to be outright junk, but I'll let you be the judge of that.<br />

<br />
Hello there everyone, My name is Freezeblade7997. I am here to discuss my problem with this wiki. You may also know me as SOMBRASUPPORTER2000<br />
<br />
My problem with this wiki is your community, reviews and how you treat fandoms. I know you guys probably have a normal or a stressed life and wants things done, but this is not how you do it. Directly insulting fans of anime or furries shows that you all don`t care what happens aslong as you get all the laughs...until you get laughed at.<br />
<br />
For an wiki that "Promotes mocking webcomics and insulting fandoms to a pretty big degree" You all seem to be sore losers. Whenever someone has an opinion on doesn`t like something, you guys attacked immediately and even ban users. The worst part of all of this is that, most of your users don`t care at all whatever happens and will directly insult whoever JUST by what fandom they are or what they like...a new low.<br />
<br />
I tried to remove some of these reviews because they were complete BS (Twokinds review for particular, haven`t you checked on how most of these people view this great webcomic?) No, because you`re all more interested in roasting and insulting viewers, artists and overall...work.<br />
<br />
I`m not trying to say all of you are jerks or something, I know for sure some of you are good, even great people...but my one request is to more nicer against other artists, they have lives, they are putting time and effort into these things (Ok some are garbage, like Angel Warrior, Billy the HEretic and the milk goddess) But still, don`t discriminate them just cause they have furry elements or an anime artstyle because that`s not only stupid and you`re directing to a fandom, but you`re also showing that you call it bad, even awful JUST because of these elements.<br />
<br />
I hope you understand that i`m not trying to insult this wiki with this message, this is just my own personal opinion of it, I hope you understand of my problems and to improve on them.<br />
<br />
Thank you for reading<br />

I have prior experience in creating and editing wikis, but I want my private wiki to have a good color scheme. The CSS tutorials from what I've seen are a bit overwhelming. Is there any way I can see what I'm doing so I can get the right color scheme for my wiki?--[[User:CyberneticCupcake|CyberneticCupcake]] ([[User talk:CyberneticCupcake|talk]]) 18:04, 28 April 2017 (UTC)<br />

== Embed Facebook and Twitter videos? ==<br />
<br />
Is there a way to embed Facebook or Twitter videos? For example; embedding these cannabis march videos into the Cannabis Wiki: <br />

== Deleting a Wiki ==<br />
<br />
Hey, Jack. <br />
<br />
I've just created an account and I'm using it for the first time. I created a Wiki as an test and all I need is to delete it. Can you help me? Not delete the page, but the Wiki itself in my control panel. Is it possible? I haven't found any delete button whatsoever. <br />
<br />
Thanks!<br />
<br />
== What the **** are you doing with the servers? ==<br />
<br />
Because ShoutwikiHub is the only wiki that works for me. The other ones are redirecting to a 503 error page that looks like something from the early days of the Internet, when it was just a few computers connected together in a building in Switzerland.

<br />
Greetings. How do I go by totally getting rid of (deleting) our Wiki? http://interline.shoutwiki.com/wiki/. It is out of date an no longer used but do not want the data out there anymore at all. Most pages are older and mass delete function does not work, as it does only for new pages, which of course we havent entered any in while. We just want to have it blown away altogether and does not need to be backed up. If you can just delete it on your end that is authorized and I ask that you or team do so.

== Plusieurs problèmes sur mes wikis ==<br />
<br />
Salut Jack!<br />
<br />
First, sorry for this very long message, but I really need help, and I couldn't find it elsewhere. Maybe you could make it collapsible if it's too long and visually annoying?<br />
<br />
Je me permets de te contacter car j'ai déposé il y a pas mal de temps plusieurs messages sur le forum, et j'ai envoyé un courriel, mais je n'ai pas encore eu de réponse.<br />
<br />
Et comme mon wiki n'avance plus depuis plusieurs mois, car j'aurais besoin d'aide et je ne la trouve pas. <br />
Voici ma requête.<br />
<br />
(Je suis désolée si ma requête est très longue, mais comme ça fait un moment que j'ai ces problèmes, les problèmes s'accumulent)<br />
<br />
J'aurais besoin de plusieurs extensions sur les wikis cogitopédie et Imagomundi (Je suis admin).<br />
<br />
---- Extensions à installer<br />
<br />
1. Instant Commons.<br />
<br />
(Note: Je pense qu'Instant Commons devrait être activé par défaut sur tous les wikis, car ça économiserait de la place. Raison de ma demande: J'ai remarqué que les fichiers dont j'ai besoin sont souvent déjà présents sur les sites-frères de Wikipédia.<br />
<br />
2. Extension Restric access by category and group.<br />
<br />
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Restrict_access_by_category_and_group<br />
<br />
Elle n'est plus maintenue, mais je ne vois pas comment faire sans.<br />
<br />
Raison: Je voudrais un wiki hybride mi-privé, mi-publique, sur certaines parties.<br />
J'ai demandé l'installation de l'extension Whitelist, mais je n'arrive pas à m'en servir, j'ai demandé de l'aide sur le forum, mais personne n'a pu m'aider, ou personne n'a vu mon message.<br />
<br />
<br />
3. L'extension semantic wiki extension,<br />
<br />
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Semantic_MediaWiki<br />
<br />
Raison: J'ai besoin de m'entraîner et d'apprendre à gérer et à utiliser un wiki sémantique.<br />
<br />
4. namespace manager<br />
<br />
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Namespace_manager<br />
<br />
Raison: Je voudrais organiser les wikis autrement, en me servant des espaces de noms, et ça me permettrais d'éviter d'embêter l'équipe à chaque fois pour demander la création ou le renommage d'un espace de nom.<br />
<br />
Je ne compte pas changer les espaces de noms par défaut, seulement gérer des espaces de noms additionnels personnalisés, comme moyen de structurer les données présentes.<br />
<br />
5. Widgets<br />
<br />
6. SimpleCalendar<br />
<br />
7. CSS<br />
<br />
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:CSS<br />
<br />
8. Une extension boilerplate pour avoir des modèles prédéfinis pour inclure automatiquement dans un article de même catégorie. Par exemple, tous les articles qui ont une certaine catégorie, ont ce "draft", qui donne une structure pour entrer les données (par exemple inclusion automatique d'une certaine infobox, mise en page et titre prédéfinis).<br />
<br />
9. Je cherche une extension qui afficherait un champ de saisie, et je pourrais entrer la catégorie de la page (s'il y a une autocomplétion, c'est encore mieux). Comme dans Wikia.<br />
<br />
Je ne sais pas quelle extension fait ça.<br />
<br />
<br />
------- Problèmes/Dépannage<br />
<br />
<br />
10. <br />
Je n'arrive pas à utiliser l'extension Whitelist: http://www.shoutwiki.com/wiki/Forum:Whitelist_extension<br />
<br />
Je me suis déconnectée pour tester.<br />
<br />
J'ai créé la page http://mywikiname.shoutwiki.com/wiki/Test_page_publique<br />
<br />
Sur la page de type http://mywikiname.shoutwiki.com/wiki/MediaWiki:Public_read_whitelist, j'ai ajouté http://mywikiname.shoutwiki.com/wiki/Test_page_publique<br />
<br />
Mais ça ne fonctionne pas, car quand je suis déconnectée, il me dit que je ne peux pas visualiser la page "Test_page_publique" (sur le wiki privé).<br />
<br />
11. Je n'arrive pas à utiliser l'extension GoogleDocs4MW<br />
<br />
Testé sur mon wiki privé.<br />
<br />
Sur la page du document Google, j'ai été dans le menu File > Publish to the web.<br />
<br />
mais sur mon wiki, la connexion est marquée comme "non autorisée".<br />
<br />
<br />
''spreadsheet.google.com n'autorise pas la connexion''<br />
<br />
http://www.shoutwiki.com/wiki/Forum:GoogleDocs4MW<br />
<br />
<br />
12. Je n'arrive pas à connecter un bot avec le logiciel indiqué sur cette page: http://www.shoutwiki.com/wiki/Help:AutoWikiBrowser<br />
<br />
L'erreur vient peut-être du fait que le wiki est privé? <br />
<br />
J'ai bien lu la page d'aide Shoutwiki, mais elle n'est pas assez détaillée, ce genre de cas n'est pas abordé, et je ne sais pas du tout quelle est la bonne façon de créer un compte de Bot sur le wiki. Comment procéder de façon efficace?<br />
<br />
J'ai téléchargé AutoWikiBrowser, j'ai créé un compte de bot sur le wiki, mais impossible de le connecter au logiciel, donc je m'y suis mal prise.<br />
<br />
13. J'ai un problème avec les captcha, qui sont illisibles sur mon wiki. <br />
<br />
Une extension qui substituerait une captcha où il faut écrire plutôt que lire, qui poserait une question (Dans quelle ville est née l'administrateur de ce wiki, par exemple) ou une question mathématiques, conviendrait mieux.<br />
<br />
Par exemple: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:QuestyCaptcha<br />
<br />

<br />
:Bonjour PERCE-NEIGE,<br />
<br />
:Votre rêquete n'est pas très longue, ne vous en faites pas !<br />
<br />
:1. J'ai activé InstantCommons dans votre deux wikis.<br />
:2. Voyez #4 (ci-dessous). (Je sais que WhitelistPages n'est pas aussi flexible que cette extension-ci. En plus, l'extension qui vous proposé n'est pas très configurable, comme il faut nous modifier le fichier des paramètres de votre wiki '''à chaque fois''' que vous voulez modifier, ajouter ou supprimer des catégories restreintes. L'extensibilité, c'est très important pour nous à ShoutWiki parce qu'on a plus de {{NUMBEROFWIKIS}} wikis ici !)<br />
:3. J'ai activé cette extension aussi.<br />
:4. Votre raisonnage est très admirable, mais comment j'ai ecrit sur [https://phabricator.shoutwiki.com/T250 T250 en notre Phabricator], ça que fonctionne par les autres sites MediaWiki ne pas automatique fonctionne par nous sur ShoutWiki. En plus, l'autre extension pour manager les espaces des noms—[[mw:Extension:SpecialNamespaces]]—n'est pas vraiment maintenue. Nous ne voudrions pas ajouter notre "dette technique", comme on l'appelle, et les extensions pas maintenues sont precisément cela. Désolé.<br />
:5. Fait !<br />
:6. Ce n'est pas [[Help:Extensions|une extension que nous normalement offrons]], et c'est la raison parce que [[ShoutWiki staff|nous]] devons réviser le code de l'extension avant de l'activer. Si elle passe la révision, nous allons l'activer.<br />
:7. Fait !<br />
:8. Peut-être [[mw:Extension:Preloader|l'extension Preloader]] ou l'une des autres extensions listées sur la section [[mw:Extension:Preloader#See also|"Voir aussi"]] de cette page ?<br />
:9. Hm, [[commons:MediaWiki:Gadget-HotCat.js|gadget HotCat]] suffirait-il? Cet gadget est utilisé par de nombreux sites, y compris Wikipédia. Pour plus d'informations, y compris les instructions d'installation, voyez [[commons:Help:Gadget-HotCat|la page d'aide sur HotCat en Wikimedia Commons (en anglais)]].<br />
:10. J'ai testé l'extension [[mw:Extension:WhitelistPages|WhitelistPages]] plus tôt aujourd'hui et ça marche pour moi. Verifiez que vous avez tapé les noms des pages avec ''espaces'' et pas avec ''soulignés''. Le logiciel ne pense pas que "Ma_page_publique" est la même chose que "Ma page publique" ! (En [[s:w:cogitopedie:MediaWiki:Public read whitelist|Cogitopédie]], le problème est que il y a une addresse web sur la page, pas seulement un nom d'un page; écrivez simplement <code>Test page publique</code> sur la page et après avoir sauvégarde, il devrait être possible de voyer la page (ou les pages listées) sans se connecter.<br />
:11. Vous avez raison, c'était un vrai problème. Merci pour le rapport ! On a mis à jour notre copie de l'extension, et je crois qu'il fixe le problème, mais confirmez SVP.<br />
:12. C'est très possible que l'erreur est à cause ces options-ci, mais vraiment, je ne sais pas, car il y a longtemps que j'ai utilisé le logiciel AWB moi-même. Avez-vous confirmé que le logiciel fonctionne avec les autres sites MediaWiki ? Je voudrais vous recommender à contacter des developpeurs AWB, par exemple sur [[wikipedia:Wikipedia talk:AutoWikiBrowser|la page discussion sur Wikipédia anglais]] ou sur leur canal IRC.<br />
:13. Ah oui, QuestyCaptcha, c'est une extension '''très''' efficace ! Le plus gros problème avec cette extension est car il n'y a pas unu interface—une page spéciale—pour les administrateurs a voir, modifier et supprimer les questions ou leur réponses. Pour être efficace, QuestyCaptcha faut avoir beaucoup de questions. [[Special:Contact|Envoyez-nous un courriel]] avec les questions et leur réponses et nous activerons l'extension pour votre wikis.<br />
<br />
:P.S. Désolé pour mon français ! --[[User:Jack Phoenix|Jack Phoenix]]<staff /> <sub>([[User talk:Jack Phoenix|Contact]])</sub> 14:55, 2 June 2019 (UTC)<br />

:: Merci beaucoup! Je te suis extrêmement reconnaissante pour ton aide! J'étais perdue.<br />
<br />
1: Pour Simple Calendar, j'attendrais le temps qu'il faut pour que le code de l'extension soit testé et approuvé. Je regarderais si une autre extension offre la même chose en attendant.<br />
<br />
2: Pour l'extension qui offre un boilerplate, je ne peux pas prendre preloader, car elle affiche le boilerplate en fonction de l'espace de nom, et comme je ne pourrais pas changer l'espace de nom, c'est à oublier. La seule de la liste qui ne marche pas en fonction de l'espace de nom, c'est MultiBoilerplate. Résolu.<br />
<br />
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:MultiBoilerplate<br />
<br />
3: Le Gadget Hotcat me semble effectivement parfaitement répondre à mon besoin, je demande donc son activation. Résolu.<br />
<br />
4: J'ai oublié aussi de demander une dernière extension (maintenant que j'en ai beaucoup d'activées, j'en ai pour un moment à les tester et les utiliser).<br />

5: Whitelist marche parfaitement à présent, merci beaucoup! Effectivement, c'était un problème de syntaxe. Résolu.<br />
<br />
Je vais tester son utilisation, mais ça me pose quand même un problème, si j'ai énormément de pages qui s'ajoutent aux pages publiques, la page va devenir dure à gérer, fouillis et très longue. Je comprends les problèmes de modification d'espace de noms, ce sont des modifications très lourdes, et ça ne vaut pas du tout le coup si je dois à chaque fois vous demander de modifier ma configuration, c'est tout à fait exact. Donc, j'abandonne l'idée d'avoir cette extension.<br />
<br />
Par contre, n'est-il pas possible d'avoir un espace de nom qui s'appellera "privé" (ou l'inverse, un qui s'appellera "public")? <br />
Un seul espace de nom me permettrait de catégoriser les pages que je veux voir publiques ou privées. <br />
Ou alors, est-ce possible de faire ça avec des catégories?<br />
<br />
J'essaye de voir si c'est possible de tester le wiki hybride, mais si c'est impossible, je vais utiliser une astuce. Je mettrais un des wikis privé, et l'autre public.<br />
<br />
Mais dans ce cas, est-il possible de faire automatiquement des transferts de page de l'un à l'autre? Ou est-ce une idée bizarre?<br />
<br />
Car, une page peut être privée à un certain stade d'écriture, et devenir publique quand elle est suffisamment riche (ou inversement passer de publique à privée).<br />
<br />
Y a-t-il des logiciels avec lesquels je peux faire mes transferts d'un wiki à l'autre?<br />
<br />
6: Pour GoogleDocs4MW, pour l'instant ça ne marche toujours pas. Je ne sais pas si mon code est bon. J'ai fait "publier sur le web."<br />

:4.: J'ai discuté avec [[User:Lcawte|Lcawte]] de cette demande et malheureusement je regrette à vous informer que nous ne supporterons pas cette extension-ci en ce moment à cause de sa complexité. La page [[Help:Extensions]] est notre "liste principale" des extensions que nous supporterons. Désolé !<br />
<br />
:5.: Ce n'est pas très facile à avoir les pages publiques et aussi les pages privées sur la même wiki, selon des raisons mentionnées à [[mw:Security issues with authorization extensions]]. Est-ce faisable ? Peut-être, mais les fuites d'information ne sont pas très impossible, et c'est la raison parce que à votre place je voudrais utiliser deux wikis séparées.<br />
<br />
:Pour transferrer des pages automatiquement, il existe [[mw:Extension:Push|une extension]] de faire precisement ça, mais la page sur MediaWiki.org s'indique que l'extension n'est pas maintenue. [https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/plugins/gitiles/mediawiki/extensions/Push/+log/master La journal git de cette extension] pratiquement le confirme. Je vais l'enquêter.<br />

Insérez simplement cela entre les balises <code>&lt;googlespreadsheet&gt;</code> comme ça : &lt;googlespreadsheet&gt;1aOW_Yuxe1xx-Qm2_L2gCTV1ORQQLzs1CIohFalhBYVs&lt;/googlespreadsheet&gt; et ça devrait fonctionner.<br />

== Advertising on the left side of the Aurora skin ==<br />
<br />
Hi Jack,<br/>There is a small issue with the advertising on the left side of the Aurora skin. The ad overflows on the wiki's content zone. I found a solution with the following CSS code in the MediaWiki page '''MediaWiki:Aurora.css''' like here on [[:s:w:fr.eureka:MediaWiki:Aurora.css|Eureka Wiki]]<br />
<syntaxhighlight lang="css"><br />
#menu-left {<br />

== Protecting the entire Blogger Beware Annotated Wiki ==<br />
<br />
The [http://annotatedbloggerbeware.shoutwiki.com/wiki/Main_Page Blogger Beware Annotated Wiki] is fairly old and doesn't have many actual editors, but I like to visit it for nostalgia. Sadly, almost all of the recent edits are from spam bots creating new pages.<br />
<br />
Can we try enabling this feature: [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:ConfirmEdit Extension:ConfirmEdit] for the whole wiki?<br />
<br />
Thank you for your assistance. --[[User:GoosebumpsArt|GoosebumpsArt]] ([[User talk:GoosebumpsArt|talk]]) 17:10, 8 July 2019 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:{{ping|GoosebumpsArt}} Indeed, we've noticed that wiki seems to be getting quite a bit of spambot traffic. ConfirmEdit is already enabled on all ShoutWiki sites per default (see also [[Help:Extensions]]), together with various other anti-spam measures. However, the default CAPTCHA used in ConfirmEdit on most ShoutWiki sites is the "blurry word" one (called FancyCaptcha); a far more effective one is QuestyCaptcha, which presents the user with a question that they must correctly answer for the edit/other desired action to go through. For example, on [[s:w:lego|Brickipedia, the LEGO wiki]], the questions are about LEGO sets, such as when (what year) a certain set was released, how many pieces a set contains, etc. &mdash; finding out the answer as a human being is easy enough even if you don't know much about the topic of the wiki, but spambots obviously cannot figure that out and thus they move onto a different, easier target, for sadly the Internet is ripe with wikis (and forums, blogs, etc.) with insufficient anti-spam measures.<br />
<br />
:If you can come up with at least 5 question/answer pairs, [[Special:Contact|let us know]] and we'll happily enable QuestyCaptcha for the Blogger Beware Annotated Wiki! (Do note that answers are case-sensitive, so "this", "This" and "THIS", for example, are '''not''' the same thing, though it is entirely possible to have multiple correct answers for a question.) --[[User:Jack Phoenix|Jack Phoenix]]<staff /> <sub>([[User talk:Jack Phoenix|Contact]])</sub> 17:14, 20 July 2019 (UTC)<br />

:::As for the file [[s:w:seikai:File:Potentials.png]] on [[s:w:seikai:Maneuver (orbit)]], there are two separate issues in there:<br />
<br />
:::#You need <code>|thumb</code> in the file "parameters" for the caption to show up, i.e. <code><nowiki>[[File:Potentials.png|right|200px|thumb|region of orbital energy</nowiki></code><br />
:::#The second usage of the [[s:w:seikai:Template:Legend|Legend template]] contains the problematic character =, which is normally a part of the template syntax, much like the pipe character. So MediaWiki interprets <code><nowiki>{{Legend|#0A0A0A|forbidden region=energetic inacessible}}</nowiki></code> as "first (unnamed) parameter to the template called Legend is #0A0A0A and second parameter is a named parameter called 'forbidden region' and its value is 'energetic inacessible'". This, obviously, isn't what you meant, but MediaWiki is fooled into thinking that. You ''should'' be able to work around this by creating a template which contains nothing but the character = and then using that template instead of the = character, like this: <code><nowiki>{{Legend|#0A0A0A|forbidden region{{equals}}energetic inacessible}}</nowiki></code><br />

::::Yeah, I wish there's an editor that would make it easier to see the structure and an engine to test these things off-line. That's why I split it all into templates to minimize the confusing code. The outer loop goes through each letter in the string and only goes into the inner loop to check for the double letters. It's a simple algorithm but the IFs are making things complicated to see. I have debugged it numerous times but still can't see the problem other than guessing - the string pointer doesn't go back if the double letter test fails.

Many semantic data are written on the [[s:w:fr.24:Michael O'Neill|main article]] but nothing appears here. Is it possible to debug it, or is it because of the use of HVVM instead of PHP?

I've no idea if they've fixed that. But we also have a number of other wikis using lots of odd little SMW add-on extensions, which are poorly maintained in most cases. These create a huge dependency mess which is a '''huge''' hassle to deal with.

It appears invoking ''Side box'' and ''hatenote'' do not work. Magic word [[s:w:seikai:Template::DISPLAYTITLE|''DISPLAYTITLE'' template]] doesn't work either.

:(How'd I manage to miss this before? Agh, so sorry!) The <code><nowiki>{{#invoke}}</nowiki></code> parser function as well as the <code>Module:</code> namespace and other related things are a part of the [[mw:Extension:Scribunto|Scribunto]] extension, which I've now enabled on [[s:w:seikai]]. You ''may'' need to purge the caches of the related templates etc. by making a null (or otherwise insignificant) edit to the templates in question.<br /><code><nowiki>{{DISPLAYTITLE:}}</nowiki></code>, which is a built-in magic word, is restricted by a separate setting called [[mw:Manual:$wgRestrictDisplayTitle|<code>$wgRestrictDisplayTitle</code>]], which attempts to ensure that the new title normalizes back to the page's canonical title, i.e. you can use DISPLAYTITLE to apply cosmetic changes like bolding etc. but you can't (by default) make the title of the "Foo" page show up as "Bar". I've turned off <code>$wgRestrictDisplayTitle</code> on your wiki, so you're able to set arbitrary titles w/ DISPLAYTITLE now. --[[User:Jack Phoenix|Jack Phoenix]]<staff /> <sub>([[User talk:Jack Phoenix|Contact]])</sub> 20:06, 28 August 2015 (UTC)<br />

:Done. As a side note, when requesting an extension which [[mw:Extension default namespaces|adds new namespaces]] it's usually best to avoid creating pages in said namespaces, because once such an extension is activated, the pre-existing pages which are prefixed with the new namespace's name become inaccessible until the server-side maintenance script [[mw:Manual:namespaceDupes.php|namespaceDupes.php]] is run. In this case, there was only one page, so it was a very quick fix to do. --[[User:Jack Phoenix|Jack Phoenix]]<staff /> <sub>([[User talk:Jack Phoenix|Contact]])</sub> 20:06, 28 August 2015 (UTC)<br />

== Blocking of User:Webkinzdiva1 ==<br />
<br />
Hi Jack, <br />
<br />
Thank you for stopping by my page and letting me know that Webkinzdiva contacted you. <br />
<br />
They were blocked because I am wanting a wiki where I can control who joins, and meant to make it private, but am unable change it. In the past I have had issues with users making edits that I didn't approve of, and due to that I block anyone that joins that I don't know. I'm on a well known Webkinz Fan Site (Webkinz Insider) as well as Facebook, and I encourage people wanting to edit to private message me either place or email me, so I know who they are. <br />
<br />
While I'm not really looking for more wiki editors at this point in time, I would be willing to consider letting webkinzdiva join if they contact me. They can reach me one of the following ways:<br />
<br />
* Send a Private Message to dancerchick914 on Webkinz Insider<br />
* Send a Private Message to Michele Webkinz (facebook.com/dancerchick914)<br />
* Or email me at dancerchick914@facebook.com<br />
<br />
I had future plans to create a contact me page on my wiki for if and when I am welcoming more editors, but as I'm not actively looking for editors, had not done so. I did go ahead and edit the main page with a link to a contact information page, though, and a note on there saying that users joining without consulting Michele [myself] first will be blocked. <br />
<br />
Thank you for getting in touch! --Michele/[[User_talk:choircutie|'''<span style="color:Navy">ch</span><span style="color:Darkslateblue">oir</span><span style="color:Indigo">cut</span><span style="color:Purple">ie</span>''']] 21:11, 2 March 2016 (UTC)<br />

== Hoping you can help! ==<br />
<br />
Hello, I am hoping you might be able to help me, though, I am not sure if you can or if you are the right person to be asking. So, in developing my own ShoutWiki page (which is being used as a database for an online RPG game), I have attempting to install multiple templates from the main Wikipedia. However, some several templates, the "Show" / "Hide" option is no longer working; the template stays uncollapsed, and it's causing a bit of issues. Is there something within the coding that is not allowing this to work properly? It used to, but it no longer does.<br />
<br />
Also, is there a why to bypass the "#invoke" code? I've been able to re-write the template setup on multiple templates, but there is one in particular that is simply not working out. [[User:MusicNation|MusicNation]] ([[User talk:MusicNation|talk]]) 13:37, 15 March 2016 (UTC)<br />
: The main reason is that unlike ShoutWiki, Wikipedia uses Lua via Scribunto (the infamous #invoke command). If you want to use Wikipedia templates, you should use the history page and find the last version before the transfert on Lua. --[[User:LIMAFOX76|LIMAFOX76]] ([[User talk:LIMAFOX76|talk]]) 21:39, 15 March 2016 (UTC)<br />

Re-enabling the extension with a fix is high up on my ToDo list after a few other company related matters. --[[User:Lcawte|Lewis Cawte]] ([[User talk:Lcawte|talk]]) <staff /> 22:18, 15 March 2016 (UTC)<br />

And could you please add this to localsettings.php: $wgDefaultUserOptions['numberheadings'] = 1 ? And is it at all possible to allow html in my wiki as it is private? If it is not possible could you at least allow the "img" and "iframe" tags? I really need these two.

:Hi Muhammad2017, apologies for the delay! We had some DNS issues (which are now resolved) with the support ticket site, preventing us from accessing it and thus replying to emails sent to the support address.<br />I can add the namespaces once you provide the talkspace names &mdash; MediaWiki mandates that all namespaces must have a corresponding talkspace equivalent, even if it doesn't really make any sense (i.e. Forum & Forum_talk:); once you've done that, I'll also add the $wgDefaultUserOptions definition in.<br />As for allowing raw HTML, I discussed it with [[User:Lcawte|Lcawte]], our [[technical staff|Chief Technical Officer]], and we both came to the conclusion that this is something that we do not want to allow on ShoutWiki.

<br />
== Why I'm Here? To be explained... ==<br />
<br />
Hey, Jack, I'm writing to you #1 as an apology for something I did back in 2012 that I probably shouldn't have done because you guys do not have the resources to put up with things like Google does, and #2 to...I guess, give an update on where I'm at in life and recent projects involving the Vanilla Monaco fork I've been hacking at. I've come a long way since I started screwing around here back in June 2012, and I honestly didn't expect you to still be here when I ran by yesterday.<br />
<br />
=== #1: My Apology/Confession ===<br />
I apologize for using resources under multiple accounts. I was 13, almost 14 when I first came by here. I'm 18, and have come a long way. Let me introduce myself using my real name, Gage Morgan. I have used other usernames as separate aliases, such as Gerbilman, 17morgm, and this one, which is the only one I have access to. It's all the same person. I am looking back now, thinking about it, and I kinda feel bad now for wasting resources. I realize (now) that you guys put the two wiki limit on there for a reason. I don't even want to know the hell it must be to set up a server and get it connected a registrar...but, anyway, that's my confession, and I just want you guys to know that I'm sorry for being such a pain in the rear back then.<br />
<br />
I contacted you guys too often. I really did. You are here for serious stuff, not the BS I put you through. So, unless you respond to this, I will not bug you. However, I just turned 18 on the fifth of this month, and I have no idea why, even back then, I was using a fake name. I'm not sure why I was paranoid back then, either. I guess the thoughts my parents put in my head were the usual Republican fear-mongering that happens in the US.<br />
<br />
I also want you to know that you probably did the right thing by turning me down on that internship I kept bugging you about, because although I'm a bit more qualified now, I was not in any way then.<br />
<br />
That's my confession, and my apology. I felt I needed to take responsibility for that, considering I have shared hosting at DreamHost that I have to manage for my startup (we're developing a new operating system) and I understand now what you meant by "hosting ain't cheap." If shared hosting costs that much, I'm not even gonna ask what VPS is.<br />
<br />
=== #2: The Update On Life (My Contribution To Society) ===<br />
I am now ready for the second part. I am not fluent in PHP, so object-oriented PHP is not necessarily my forte, but I have done my best at giving the dantman-Haley-Arcane Monaco port a ShoutWiki-esque Community box. It's definitely not the best, but it's a start. I used the News extension for the recent changes in that box, and I would definitely appreciate any pointers to make it better.<br />
<br />
[[File:UpdateOnLife.png|right|thumbnail|My mock-up of ShoutWiki's Community box in Monaco (it ain't perfect!)]]<br />
<br />
As you can see, the port itself was modded (those sideboxes look like crap when left to their own devices, had to mod CSS) and that I was able to figure out the username (partially).<br />
<br />
MediaWiki's codebase is the definition of PHP hell, IMO. I've also worked with WordPress, which I'd go out on a limb and say is the most beautiful piece of PHP code I've ever worked with. <br />
<br />
The issue I have with MediaWiki is that I cannot figure out a clear, clean (non-hackish) way of doing things. Things like:<br />
<br />
if (user is logged in) {<br />
Welcome back, (retrieve username following conditional)<br />
} else {<br />
Show that elegant green button that the monaco port doesn't have for some reason<br />
}<br />
<br />
I know that you guys haven't released your implementation of Monaco, but I also am aware that Wikia doesn't currently use a "stock" version of Linux on their servers. I found a list of mods to the Linux kernel on their company GitHub, so there's that.<br />
<br />
Also, don't know how to format the "Latest Activity" box to show just the page names, usernames, and just the simple hours/days etc. that you guys have. <br />
<br />
I am considering doing an edit to the way that WikiEditor works, because Monaco is falling apart on vanilla, and signs of age are showing here as well, take a look at the "MORE WIKIS" button on the top of your implementation. But back to WikiEditor: I want to re-theme it to look like Monaco, and use Monaco sprites. The version (if any, because I have no idea if PHP and whatnot will work with me; I didn't think the redneckery image here would work either, but it did) will be on my current GitHub. Speaking of, after doing a bugfix the code is available here: https://github.com/MGageMorgan/monaco-port.<br />
<br />
The bits are out there. If you are this far, Jack, I thank you for taking the time out of your day to hear me out. Not many people actually read until the end because (millennials). Thank you for your time.<br />
<br />
Sincerely,<br />

Even if they're static, for example an open proxy, they'll probably end up on a blacklist sooner or later. --[[User:Saftzie|Saftzie]] ([[User talk:Saftzie|talk]]) 18:44, 13 August 2016 (UTC)<br />

== Need help, can't edit my own wiki ==<br />
Jack,<br />
<br />
Thanks for taking the time to read this and help. I uploaded my wiki here a while back and just started getting back into it (the game it's for just picked up in activity again) trying to edit some pages and come to find out, I'm not Sysop, admin or even beureacrat on my own wiki. If you could help me out, that would be greatly appreciated.<br />
<br />

::: I can't say much. I can see it was "created" 18 Dec 2012 (probably restored, since the main page was created in 5 Nov 2005, and it looks like an original import took place 17 May 2007). There doesn't appear to be a founder, but Jack Phoenix is the only bureaucrat atm. There are 4 other administrators, none of them are you. In fact, there are no contributions by you on that wiki. Is there any chance you edited with another account? Other than a lot of spam, there's been no activity there since Feb 2008. --[[User:Saftzie|Saftzie]] ([[User talk:Saftzie|talk]]) 04:01, 9 September 2016 (UTC)<br />
::::Yes, the original admin account that I had on the wiki was named Swift. I tried logging in to the wiki using that name, but apparently I wasn't able to (it's usually taken up pretty quick on most websites) so I apparently fell back to my Taladan login (which is my email name as well as what I typically use online) I've got the original backup of the database here on my LAN, just can't figure out why the shoutwiki import never had my account in there as Swift or, when I set it up on my Taladan account it didn't set me as at least beareucrat if not admin. I'm not sure what needs to be done from this point? Thank you so much for taking time to help! -- [[User:Taladan|Taladan]] 00:32, 10 September 2016 (UTC)<br />

== Changes on the Shadowhunters wiki ==<br />
Greetings! My wiki is fairly new but I would like to request a couple of things for the wiki: http://shadowhunters.shoutwiki.com/wiki/Main_Page<br />
<br />
* The creation of two custom namespaces: "Film" and "TV".<br />
* The switch to the Vector skin.<br />
** In line with this, I was wondering if it's possible for you to change the background or font color of some of the windows (like the ones at the bottom of the edit screen and when you go to Preferences) where the background is white while the text is gray with yellow links, making it hard to read. Is this something that I can/must request or something I can change with the CSS?<br />
<br />
Additionally, I would like to ask: are there limitations to the free version of wikis, aside from the presence of ads? Or please redirect me to a page that details this (I've tried looking, I swear).<br />
<br />
Thanks in advance! ~ [[User:Rwtia64|<span style="color:#8b0000;">red</span>]][[Message_Wall:Rwtia64|wall]][[Special:Contributions/Rwtia64|<sup><span style="color:#000099;">64</span></sup>]] 20:05, 17 September 2016 (UTC)<br />
: Jack, or one of the other staff, would have to be the ones to create namespaces and change your default skin. If you want to change colors or fonts, those are things you would do in [[s:w:shadowhunters:MediaWiki:Common.css]] or, possibly, [[s:w:shadowhunters:MediaWiki:Vector.css]] once Vector is your default skin. What do you mean by "limitations," though? --[[User:Saftzie|Saftzie]] ([[User talk:Saftzie|talk]]) 22:02, 17 September 2016 (UTC)<br />
<br />
::Thanks! My two requests still stand. As for limitations, I mean things like size of the file storage particularly—like one of the hosts I canvassed before choosing ShoutWiki had a 100MB limit for unpaid sites, and free users can't change the favicon, things like that. Thanks again. ~ [[User:Rwtia64|<span style="color:#8b0000;">red</span>]][[Message_Wall:Rwtia64|wall]][[Special:Contributions/Rwtia64|<sup><span style="color:#000099;">64</span></sup>]] 03:15, 18 September 2016 (UTC)<br />
::: There is a 100Mb limit for the size of each file upload. You can change the favicon. If any individual wiki pushes the limit of the farm's capacity as a whole, I suppose there might be a maximum capacity policy implemented, but there isn't one now. ShoutWiki wouldn't make a very good cloud storage facility, anyway. MediaWiki really isn't built for that. In the meantime, there's no limit on the number of pages or the number of files you can have. --[[User:Saftzie|Saftzie]] ([[User talk:Saftzie|talk]]) 03:44, 18 September 2016 (UTC)<br />

Although I don't agree with the mass-exodus assessment, there are a few extra steps that I'll be making sure we get in place to ensure it doesn't immediately kill the service. The main one being finally getting around to putting some limits into Special:Import - users like to try and import massive wikis themselves, and Special:Import isn't designed to do that. There have been occasions where this has significantly disrupted the service for others. I'm also going to be paying closer attention to the import requests, and make sure they get done quicker than most currently are. --[[User:Lcawte|Lewis Cawte]] ([[User talk:Lcawte|talk]]) <staff /> 06:26, 28 September 2016 (UTC)<br />

Um, I don't know what any problem there is for me to deal with. The complaints I saw had to do with people not liking the Bad Webcomics Wiki to begin with, e. g. "How dare you trash-talk my webcomic!" Or am I missing something? {{unsigned|Long Tom|04:11 January 16, 2017}}<br />
<br />
:Hi Long Tom, thanks for your swift reply! I'll have to admit I didn't look ''too'' closely at the reported problems, just took a look at the total amount of them reported from the Bad Webcomics Wiki. On [[s:w:badwebcomicswiki:Special:ProblemReports]] you'll see a list of those problems. By clicking on the little magnifying glass icon in the "Problem ID" column you can expand each entry to show what the user who submitted the problem report wrote.<br />Then on the rightmost column, titled "Actions", you can choose what action to take. Clicking on the green "OK" button marks the report as fixed; clicking on the red X marks the problem as "closed" (sounds like this is what you'll be wanting for most of these issues); clicking on the warning icon marks the report as "needs ShoutWiki staff help" (for software bugs and other such things not directly related to your wiki's content); the default state is "pending", which is represented by the rightmost green arrow icon.<br />Based on a quick glance at the reports, some have probably been fixed (related to old vandalism/spam), some content-related ones might require attention from an experienced contributor of the wiki ([[s:w:badwebcomicswiki:Special:ProblemReports/184|#184]]?) and some appear to be outright junk, but I'll let you be the judge of that.<br />
<br />
:Again, thank you for such a swift reply and let me know if you need any assistance, whether it's with this or any other ShoutWiki-related matter! :-) --[[User:Jack Phoenix|Jack Phoenix]]<staff /> <sub>([[User talk:Jack Phoenix|Contact]])</sub> 04:55, 16 January 2017 (UTC)<br />

== The Wiki ==<br />
<br />
Hello there everyone, My name is Freezeblade7997. I am here to discuss my problem with this wiki. You may also know me as SOMBRASUPPORTER2000<br />
<br />
My problem with this wiki is your community, reviews and how you treat fandoms. I know you guys probably have a normal or a stressed life and wants things done, but this is not how you do it. Directly insulting fans of anime or furries shows that you all don`t care what happens aslong as you get all the laughs...until you get laughed at.<br />
<br />
For an wiki that "Promotes mocking webcomics and insulting fandoms to a pretty big degree" You all seem to be sore losers. Whenever someone has an opinion on doesn`t like something, you guys attacked immediately and even ban users. The worst part of all of this is that, most of your users don`t care at all whatever happens and will directly insult whoever JUST by what fandom they are or what they like...a new low.<br />
<br />
I tried to remove some of these reviews because they were complete BS (Twokinds review for particular, haven`t you checked on how most of these people view this great webcomic?) No, because you`re all more interested in roasting and insulting viewers, artists and overall...work.<br />
<br />
I`m not trying to say all of you are jerks or something, I know for sure some of you are good, even great people...but my one request is to more nicer against other artists, they have lives, they are putting time and effort into these things (Ok some are garbage, like Angel Warrior, Billy the HEretic and the milk goddess) But still, don`t discriminate them just cause they have furry elements or an anime artstyle because that`s not only stupid and you`re directing to a fandom, but you`re also showing that you call it bad, even awful JUST because of these elements.<br />
<br />
I hope you understand that i`m not trying to insult this wiki with this message, this is just my own personal opinion of it, I hope you understand of my problems and to improve on them.<br />
<br />
Thank you for reading<br />

== Plusieurs problèmes sur mes wikis ==<br />
<br />
Salut Jack!<br />
<br />
First, sorry for this very long message, but I really need help, and I couldn't find it elsewhere. Maybe you could make it collapsible if it's too long and visually annoying?<br />
<br />
Je me permets de te contacter car j'ai déposé il y a pas mal de temps plusieurs messages sur le forum, et j'ai envoyé un courriel, mais je n'ai pas encore eu de réponse.<br />
<br />
Et comme mon wiki n'avance plus depuis plusieurs mois, car j'aurais besoin d'aide et je ne la trouve pas. <br />
Voici ma requête.<br />
<br />
(Je suis désolée si ma requête est très longue, mais comme ça fait un moment que j'ai ces problèmes, les problèmes s'accumulent)<br />
<br />
J'aurais besoin de plusieurs extensions sur les wikis cogitopédie et Imagomundi (Je suis admin).<br />
<br />
---- Extensions à installer<br />
<br />
1. Instant Commons.<br />
<br />
(Note: Je pense qu'Instant Commons devrait être activé par défaut sur tous les wikis, car ça économiserait de la place. Raison de ma demande: J'ai remarqué que les fichiers dont j'ai besoin sont souvent déjà présents sur les sites-frères de Wikipédia.<br />
<br />
2. Extension Restric access by category and group.<br />
<br />
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Restrict_access_by_category_and_group<br />
<br />
Elle n'est plus maintenue, mais je ne vois pas comment faire sans.<br />
<br />
Raison: Je voudrais un wiki hybride mi-privé, mi-publique, sur certaines parties.<br />
J'ai demandé l'installation de l'extension Whitelist, mais je n'arrive pas à m'en servir, j'ai demandé de l'aide sur le forum, mais personne n'a pu m'aider, ou personne n'a vu mon message.<br />
<br />
<br />
3. L'extension semantic wiki extension,<br />
<br />
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Semantic_MediaWiki<br />
<br />
Raison: J'ai besoin de m'entraîner et d'apprendre à gérer et à utiliser un wiki sémantique.<br />
<br />
4. namespace manager<br />
<br />
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Namespace_manager<br />
<br />
Raison: Je voudrais organiser les wikis autrement, en me servant des espaces de noms, et ça me permettrais d'éviter d'embêter l'équipe à chaque fois pour demander la création ou le renommage d'un espace de nom.<br />
<br />
Je ne compte pas changer les espaces de noms par défaut, seulement gérer des espaces de noms additionnels personnalisés, comme moyen de structurer les données présentes.<br />
<br />
5. Widgets<br />
<br />
6. SimpleCalendar<br />
<br />
7. CSS<br />
<br />
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:CSS<br />
<br />
8. Une extension boilerplate pour avoir des modèles prédéfinis pour inclure automatiquement dans un article de même catégorie. Par exemple, tous les articles qui ont une certaine catégorie, ont ce "draft", qui donne une structure pour entrer les données (par exemple inclusion automatique d'une certaine infobox, mise en page et titre prédéfinis).<br />
<br />
9. Je cherche une extension qui afficherait un champ de saisie, et je pourrais entrer la catégorie de la page (s'il y a une autocomplétion, c'est encore mieux). Comme dans Wikia.<br />
<br />
Je ne sais pas quelle extension fait ça.<br />
<br />
<br />
------- Problèmes/Dépannage<br />
<br />
<br />
10. <br />
Je n'arrive pas à utiliser l'extension Whitelist: http://www.shoutwiki.com/wiki/Forum:Whitelist_extension<br />
<br />
Je me suis déconnectée pour tester.<br />
<br />
J'ai créé la page http://mywikiname.shoutwiki.com/wiki/Test_page_publique<br />
<br />
Sur la page de type http://mywikiname.shoutwiki.com/wiki/MediaWiki:Public_read_whitelist, j'ai ajouté http://mywikiname.shoutwiki.com/wiki/Test_page_publique<br />
<br />
Mais ça ne fonctionne pas, car quand je suis déconnectée, il me dit que je ne peux pas visualiser la page "Test_page_publique" (sur le wiki privé).<br />
<br />
11. Je n'arrive pas à utiliser l'extension GoogleDocs4MW<br />
<br />
Testé sur mon wiki privé.<br />
<br />
Sur la page du document Google, j'ai été dans le menu File > Publish to the web.<br />
<br />
mais sur mon wiki, la connexion est marquée comme "non autorisée".<br />
<br />
<br />
''spreadsheet.google.com n'autorise pas la connexion''<br />
<br />
http://www.shoutwiki.com/wiki/Forum:GoogleDocs4MW<br />
<br />
<br />
12. Je n'arrive pas à connecter un bot avec le logiciel indiqué sur cette page: http://www.shoutwiki.com/wiki/Help:AutoWikiBrowser<br />
<br />
L'erreur vient peut-être du fait que le wiki est privé? <br />
<br />
J'ai bien lu la page d'aide Shoutwiki, mais elle n'est pas assez détaillée, ce genre de cas n'est pas abordé, et je ne sais pas du tout quelle est la bonne façon de créer un compte de Bot sur le wiki. Comment procéder de façon efficace?<br />
<br />
J'ai téléchargé AutoWikiBrowser, j'ai créé un compte de bot sur le wiki, mais impossible de le connecter au logiciel, donc je m'y suis mal prise.<br />
<br />
13. J'ai un problème avec les captcha, qui sont illisibles sur mon wiki. <br />
<br />
Une extension qui substituerait une captcha où il faut écrire plutôt que lire, qui poserait une question (Dans quelle ville est née l'administrateur de ce wiki, par exemple) ou une question mathématiques, conviendrait mieux.<br />
<br />
Par exemple: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:QuestyCaptcha<br />
<br />
Très cordialement!<br />

<br />
:Bonjour PERCE-NEIGE,<br />
<br />
:Votre rêquete n'est pas très longue, ne vous en faites pas !<br />
<br />
:1. J'ai activé InstantCommons dans votre deux wikis.<br />
:2. Voyez #4 (ci-dessous). (Je sais que WhitelistPages n'est pas aussi flexible que cette extension-ci. En plus, l'extension qui vous proposé n'est pas très configurable, comme il faut nous modifier le fichier des paramètres de votre wiki '''à chaque fois''' que vous voulez modifier, ajouter ou supprimer des catégories restreintes. L'extensibilité, c'est très important pour nous à ShoutWiki parce qu'on a plus de {{NUMBEROFWIKIS}} wikis ici !)<br />
:3. J'ai activé cette extension aussi.<br />
:4. Votre raisonnage est très admirable, mais comment j'ai ecrit sur [https://phabricator.shoutwiki.com/T250 T250 en notre Phabricator], ça que fonctionne par les autres sites MediaWiki ne pas automatique fonctionne par nous sur ShoutWiki. En plus, l'autre extension pour manager les espaces des noms—[[mw:Extension:SpecialNamespaces]]—n'est pas vraiment maintenue. Nous ne voudrions pas ajouter notre "dette technique", comme on l'appelle, et les extensions pas maintenues sont precisément cela. Désolé.<br />
:5. Fait !<br />
:6. Ce n'est pas [[Help:Extensions|une extension que nous normalement offrons]], et c'est la raison parce que [[ShoutWiki staff|nous]] devons réviser le code de l'extension avant de l'activer. Si elle passe la révision, nous allons l'activer.<br />
:7. Fait !<br />
:8. Peut-être [[mw:Extension:Preloader|l'extension Preloader]] ou l'une des autres extensions listées sur la section [[mw:Extension:Preloader#See also|"Voir aussi"]] de cette page ?<br />
:9. Hm, [[commons:MediaWiki:Gadget-HotCat.js|gadget HotCat]] suffirait-il? Cet gadget est utilisé par de nombreux sites, y compris Wikipédia. Pour plus d'informations, y compris les instructions d'installation, voyez [[commons:Help:Gadget-HotCat|la page d'aide sur HotCat en Wikimedia Commons (en anglais)]].<br />
:10. J'ai testé l'extension [[mw:Extension:WhitelistPages|WhitelistPages]] plus tôt aujourd'hui et ça marche pour moi. Verifiez que vous avez tapé les noms des pages avec ''espaces'' et pas avec ''soulignés''. Le logiciel ne pense pas que "Ma_page_publique" est la même chose que "Ma page publique" ! (En [[s:w:cogitopedie:MediaWiki:Public read whitelist|Cogitopédie]], le problème est que il y a une addresse web sur la page, pas seulement un nom d'un page; écrivez simplement <code>Test page publique</code> sur la page et après avoir sauvégarde, il devrait être possible de voyer la page (ou les pages listées) sans se connecter.<br />
:11. Vous avez raison, c'était un vrai problème. Merci pour le rapport ! On a mis à jour notre copie de l'extension, et je crois qu'il fixe le problème, mais confirmez SVP.<br />
:12. C'est très possible que l'erreur est à cause ces options-ci, mais vraiment, je ne sais pas, car il y a longtemps que j'ai utilisé le logiciel AWB moi-même. Avez-vous confirmé que le logiciel fonctionne avec les autres sites MediaWiki ? Je voudrais vous recommender à contacter des developpeurs AWB, par exemple sur [[wikipedia:Wikipedia talk:AutoWikiBrowser|la page discussion sur Wikipédia anglais]] ou sur leur canal IRC.<br />
:13. Ah oui, QuestyCaptcha, c'est une extension '''très''' efficace ! Le plus gros problème avec cette extension est car il n'y a pas unu interface—une page spéciale—pour les administrateurs a voir, modifier et supprimer les questions ou leur réponses. Pour être efficace, QuestyCaptcha faut avoir beaucoup de questions. [[Special:Contact|Envoyez-nous un courriel]] avec les questions et leur réponses et nous activerons l'extension pour votre wikis.<br />
<br />
:P.S. Désolé pour mon français ! --[[User:Jack Phoenix|Jack Phoenix]]<staff /> <sub>([[User talk:Jack Phoenix|Contact]])</sub> 14:55, 2 June 2019 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:: Merci beaucoup! Je te suis extrêmement reconnaissante pour ton aide! J'étais perdue.<br />
<br />
1: Pour Simple Calendar, j'attendrais le temps qu'il faut pour que le code de l'extension soit testé et approuvé. Je regarderais si une autre extension offre la même chose en attendant.<br />
<br />
2: Pour l'extension qui offre un boilerplate, je ne peux pas prendre preloader, car elle affiche le boilerplate en fonction de l'espace de nom, et comme je ne pourrais pas changer l'espace de nom, c'est à oublier. La seule de la liste qui ne marche pas en fonction de l'espace de nom, c'est MultiBoilerplate. Résolu.<br />
<br />
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:MultiBoilerplate<br />
<br />
3: Le Gadget Hotcat me semble effectivement parfaitement répondre à mon besoin, je demande donc son activation. Résolu.<br />
<br />
4: J'ai oublié aussi de demander une dernière extension (maintenant que j'en ai beaucoup d'activées, j'en ai pour un moment à les tester et les utiliser).<br />
<br />
Translate: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Translate<br />
<br />
Raison: j'en ai besoin dans le cadre de projets personnels de traduction de divers contenus.<br />
<br />
5: Whitelist marche parfaitement à présent, merci beaucoup! Effectivement, c'était un problème de syntaxe. Résolu.<br />
<br />
Je vais tester son utilisation, mais ça me pose quand même un problème, si j'ai énormément de pages qui s'ajoutent aux pages publiques, la page va devenir dure à gérer, fouillis et très longue. Je comprends les problèmes de modification d'espace de noms, ce sont des modifications très lourdes, et ça ne vaut pas du tout le coup si je dois à chaque fois vous demander de modifier ma configuration, c'est tout à fait exact. Donc, j'abandonne l'idée d'avoir cette extension.<br />
<br />
Par contre, n'est-il pas possible d'avoir un espace de nom qui s'appellera "privé" (ou l'inverse, un qui s'appellera "public")? <br />
Un seul espace de nom me permettrait de catégoriser les pages que je veux voir publiques ou privées. <br />
Ou alors, est-ce possible de faire ça avec des catégories?<br />
<br />
J'essaye de voir si c'est possible de tester le wiki hybride, mais si c'est impossible, je vais utiliser une astuce. Je mettrais un des wikis privé, et l'autre public.<br />
<br />
Mais dans ce cas, est-il possible de faire automatiquement des transferts de page de l'un à l'autre? Ou est-ce une idée bizarre?<br />
<br />
Car, une page peut être privée à un certain stade d'écriture, et devenir publique quand elle est suffisamment riche (ou inversement passer de publique à privée).<br />
<br />
Y a-t-il des logiciels avec lesquels je peux faire mes transferts d'un wiki à l'autre?<br />
<br />
6: Pour GoogleDocs4MW, pour l'instant ça ne marche toujours pas. Je ne sais pas si mon code est bon. J'ai fait "publier sur le web."<br />
<br />
<code> <googlespreadsheet width="600" height="200" style="width: 50%">https://docs.google.com/document/d/1aOW_Yuxe1xx-Qm2_L2gCTV1ORQQLzs1CIohFalhBYVs/edit?usp=sharing <br />
</googlespreadsheet><br />
</code><br />
<br />
Encore merci! Et au passage, c'est écrit en très bon français, et sans fautes! Félicitations!<br />

<br />
:4.: J'ai discuté avec [[User:Lcawte|Lcawte]] de cette demande et malheureusement je regrette à vous informer que nous ne supporterons pas cette extension-ci en ce moment à cause de sa complexité. La page [[Help:Extensions]] est notre "liste principale" des extensions que nous supporterons. Désolé !<br />
<br />
:5.: Ce n'est pas très facile à avoir les pages publiques et aussi les pages privées sur la même wiki, selon des raisons mentionnées à [[mw:Security issues with authorization extensions]]. Est-ce faisable ? Peut-être, mais les fuites d'information ne sont pas très impossible, et c'est la raison parce que à votre place je voudrais utiliser deux wikis séparées.<br />
<br />
:Pour transferrer des pages automatiquement, il existe [[mw:Extension:Push|une extension]] de faire precisement ça, mais la page sur MediaWiki.org s'indique que l'extension n'est pas maintenue. [https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/plugins/gitiles/mediawiki/extensions/Push/+log/master La journal git de cette extension] pratiquement le confirme. Je vais l'enquêter.<br />
<br />
:6.: Quand vous avez une adresse web de Google Docs comme <code><nowiki>https://docs.google.com/document/d/1aOW_Yuxe1xx-Qm2_L2gCTV1ORQQLzs1CIohFalhBYVs/edit?usp=sharing</nowiki></code>, la seule parte dont vous avez besoin est la parte après '''/d/''' et avant la dernière barre oblique (''la clé''): '''1aOW_Yuxe1xx-Qm2_L2gCTV1ORQQLzs1CIohFalhBYVs'''. Insérez simplement cela entre les balises <code>&lt;googlespreadsheet&gt;</code> comme ça : &lt;googlespreadsheet&gt;1aOW_Yuxe1xx-Qm2_L2gCTV1ORQQLzs1CIohFalhBYVs&lt;/googlespreadsheet&gt; et ça devrait fonctionner.<br />
<br />
:Ce n'est pas votre faute, la documentation de l'extension GoogleDocs4MW est incomplète et il manque des exemples d'utilisation; on doit cela remédier. <br />

== Advertising on the left side of the Aurora skin ==<br />
<br />
Hi Jack,<br/>There is a small issue with the advertising on the left side of the Aurora skin. The ad overflows on the wiki's content zone. I found a solution with the following CSS code in the MediaWiki page '''MediaWiki:Aurora.css''' like here on [[:s:w:fr.eureka:MediaWiki:Aurora.css|Eureka Wiki]]<br />
<syntaxhighlight lang="css"><br />
#menu-left {<br />

Hi Lewis,<br/>I have an error message like this on some page on [[s:w:fr.24]]. When I look for [[s:w:fr.24:Victor Rovner]] or [[s:w:fr.24:Jeff Ricketts]] (available articles in the wiki), I find this:<br/><br />

== Problem ==<br />
<br />
Lcawte DISPLAYTITLE doesn't seem to work on my wiki. --[[User:N64dude|N64dude]] ([[User talk:N64dude|talk]]) 00:45, 10 August 2013 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:What do you mean? What happens when you try to use that magic word? What do you think that should happen?<br />
<br />
:DISPLAYTITLE is [[mw:Manual:$wgRestrictDisplayTitle|restricted]] by default &mdash; that is, custom titles must normalize to the same page title. So if you have a page about the cell phone manufactured by Apple, you could use <code><nowiki>{{DISPLAYTITLE:iPhone}}</nowiki></code> on that page to render its title "correctly", because for MediaWiki (and especially in its default configuration), "iPhone" and "IPhone" are the same title. But you can't change the title of the iPhone page to "Apple iPhone" with DISPLAYTITLE, because whereas "iPhone" and "IPhone" normalize to the same title, "Apple iPhone" doesn't.<br />
<br />
:Some wikis have a template, usually named <code>Template:Title</code>, which requires additional JavaScript code to work. This template allows to change the title of a page to any arbitrary name, but honestly, that's a pretty scary ability, as it tends to confuse people. With DISPLAYTITLE and its default restrictions, it should be relatively obvious what the page's real name is and thus you'll know how to link to it. But what about if the page is called "IPhone" but its title is displayed as "The best cell phone ever"? Yep, many users would try linking to <code><nowiki>[[The best cell phone ever]]</nowiki></code> and then wonder why it isn't working...<br />
<br />
:In any case, if you need either the DISPLAYTITLE restrictions lifted and/or help with implementing <code><nowiki>Template:Title</nowiki></code> for your wiki, [[User talk:Jack Phoenix|let me know]]. --[[User:Jack Phoenix|Jack Phoenix]] <staff/> <sub>([[User talk:Jack Phoenix|contact]])</sub> 12:49, 10 August 2013 (UTC)<br />

:By your wiki do you mean [[s:w:en.userwiki]]? I'm asking to make sure that I have the correct wiki; many ShoutWiki editors are active on multiple wikis and there are several prominent users who have started multiple wikis on ShoutWiki, too, and in such cases, it's not obvious what wiki or wikis they mean. ;-) --[[User:Jack Phoenix|Jack Phoenix]] <staff/> <sub>([[User talk:Jack Phoenix|contact]])</sub> 20:39, 12 August 2013 (UTC)<br />

== Old request: Semantic MediaWiki ==<br />
<br />
Hi Lewis,<br/>I would like to ask you about an old Bugzilla request for upgrading Semantic MediaWiki. I know you've been quite busy recently, yet I think it should be great to update the SMW version up to 2.0 (last one). The actual ShoutWiki SMW version (1.8.0.1) has some issues, especially counting some property pages on statistics and I saw issues on Concept pages. Thank you for your answer. --[[User:LIMAFOX76|LIMAFOX76]] ([[User talk:LIMAFOX76|talk]]) 11:29, 30 April 2014 (UTC)<br />

<br />
:: Thank you very much. As tested in a personal home wiki, it seems that unlike the previous versions, the 2.0 installation is specific for each wiki. You'll have to use [[mw:Composer|Composer]] separately for each Semantic wiki. Installation seems quite, simple, may be the upgrade is a little bit more complicated.

<br />
::: Hi Lewis, just a reminder as there are some updating issues with this version of SMW; properties appear then disappear with no apparent reason. Even if I do an Edit/Save without modification, the issue still exists. The SMW version is now [http://www.semantic-mediawiki.org/wiki/Semantic_MediaWiki 2.3], according to the main SMW wiki site.

1 Vandal one (I am sure that it is only, because his IP address changes, but not for ranges, sinó that changes it with a program that surely he arranges in his computer.) there is vandalizado the page of Jack Phoenix's discussion and they are different IP'S, not for ranges, because the range is different, sinó because they are programmed by the computer of the user, this already goes from bad to worse, because, when the users, undo the editions, it returns to vandalizar. The content that it has put till now, for vandaliar is " Very nice site " or something like that, then, I ask for help him with this, because this one Problem, already multiplying this one (I want décir, that the vandalism repeating itself) and I ask for a checkup him to the IP'S that exist vandalizado, to see if my suspicions are true (my suspicions they are that it treats itself of same it presents, only that programming in the computer multiple IP'S) or that treats itself about another person. In this case, I ask for a solution him, I suggest him: 1-In the case of which my suspicions are accepted, so, would be necessary to go blocking the IP'S while they continue appearing, because in another wiki, I pass that a blocked IP, he said to me that IP and I was programming I suppose that he programmes them with his computer, there must be programs like that. Also I ask you, that pìense another solution, if the mia does not prove (I it created that if, that there will be another solution). 2-En the case of which they are different persons, also I ask you to think a solution and I think the same one that in the first case.Thanks in advance--[[User:Libros|Libros]] ([[User talk:Libros|talk]]) 17:40, 8 May 2014 (UTC)<br />

<br />
: <s>We actively spam ourselves to see how alive our community is.</s> I'm not actually sure, but I'm going to have a guess and hope I remember to file a Phabricator task about it when I get back from work. It may be that the anonymous spammer is using HTTPS, which is the only reason I can think of for it to go through Chirp. We've had some email spam from Vertex before, although this was through one of the forms so I guess it needs a little more validation as the address was probably just random@vertexsIPgoeshere. With this case, it would make sense if the IP header isn't getting forwarded somewhere in the horrible chain of servers for HTTPS requests<br />
:: User (DNS, etc) -> Vertex (HTTPS forwarding) -> Chirp (SSL Termination) -> Vertex (Varnish) -> Monolith (Backend) -> Grunt (Database) -> User (Browser)<br />
: It was initially set up as a test, and has been a sort of hidden feature for most wikis for a while. Once we sort out how we deal with the remaining issue (sub.sub.domains.com), I'll probably move it to Vertex as it makes more sense.

== Question concerning Module:Lua ==<br />
I had a question about Module:Lua, which is in-use on the main Wikipedia database. I understand this module — mostly used in the cases of infobox templates — was, at least for a short interim period, used here at ShoutWiki. However, I am also aware it was disabled, due to the ShoutWIki servers being unable to handle what the module called for. While I am sure there are no immediate plans to re-install the module, I did read that [some] ShoutWiki databases could have it installed. I was wondering: is there a downside to this happening? Like, does it crash the selected Wiki, due to [potential] instability? and, also, is there any potential of it coming back full-time to the ShoutWiki database? Thank you for your time! [[User:MusicNation|MusicNation]] ([[User talk:MusicNation|talk]]) 16:54, 4 December 2017 (UTC)<br />

::: It's very stable and quite common. It's also what Wikipedia uses. There's a good chance it's already on your wiki, but if it's not, you can have it added. --[[User:Saftzie|Saftzie]] ([[User talk:Saftzie|talk]]) 07:00, 5 December 2017 (UTC)<br />

An example of the issue I'm referring to is on this page:<br />

<br />
The numbering of the contents have a very dark gray background with black text. This is a terrible contrast, I can barely see the numbers. I would like to change the number text to white. [[User:Pikazilla|Pikazilla]] ([[User talk:Pikazilla|talk]]) 14:48, 10 May 2018 (UTC)<br />

: Pikazilla, I've changed the coloring of the numbers in the ''table of contents'' for you to white. I noticed you've now started signing your comments which is much appreciated. I meant for you to leave a message on your wiki as opposed to hub, but anyway. A further tip if you continue to use other ShoutWiki sites, is that when linking you can use [[Help:Interwiki links|interwiki links]], for example a link to that page using an interwiki link is <nowiki>[[s:sultans:Elena Alaxandria|whatever text you wish to show as the link]]</nowiki> ---[[User:Lcawte|Lewis Cawte]] ([[User talk:Lcawte|talk]]) <staff /> 15:26, 10 May 2018 (UTC)<br />

== Spam accounts started daily on my wiki ==<br />
Thanks for your work. I don't know if this is where I should discuss this. I am getting spam accounts started daily. I delete them every day or every other day, and block the user names for a month. That seems to be long enough to prevent reuse. <br />
<br />
Is there any way to filter this? I don't want to block good users. I get a rare few who register so that they have the possibility to edit the 2019 page via a specially created user right just to edit the 2019 page: <br />
*http://cannabis.shoutwiki.com/wiki/2019 <br />
<br />
Maybe the addition of links to user pages could be blocked until the user meets a minimum number of non-deleted edits? <br />
<br />
Or maybe user page creation could be blocked altogether until a minimum amount of time passes. A couple weeks maybe. <br />
<br />
User registration could occur right away, but not user page creation for awhile. And then no links until another couple weeks passes. <br />
<br />
Maybe this could be suggested to Mediawiki developers. <br />
<br />
The multi-step process could be built into Mediawiki. So no work would be required of admins on wikis. It would be automatic. It would be much rarer to see spam links since spammers would have to go through a multi-stage process for a single spam link. <br />
<br />
The time period could be set to vary automatically. Or an option to choose the time period could be given to wiki admins. This would help thwart any auto-timing software attempted by spammers. --[[User:Timeshifter|'''Timeshifter''']] ([[User talk:Timeshifter|talk]]) 07:30, 17 February 2019 (UTC)<br />
: Rather than core MediaWiki, it would be better to put such functionality in an extension. In fact, the capability (and much more) is already in the AbuseFilter extension, which is already installed on your wiki. --[[User:Saftzie|Saftzie]] ([[User talk:Saftzie|talk]]) 08:42, 17 February 2019 (UTC)<br />

==Protect your user page==<br />
Hi, Lewis! I'm Dove. I have noticed that your user page has been vandalized many times by disruptive I.P. addresses. Whilst I was looking at your user page history, I recommend that it gets protected to prevent it from happening again in the nearby future. It basically makes it much easier and less worrying to deal with. Plus, staff user pages should be protected anyway, right? Hope it helps!

== Getting more editors? ==<br />
<br />
Hi Mr. Cawte, I was just wondering if there was a way to get more editors for your ShoutWiki site? I'm an admin on a forked Wikia and I want to stay way ahead of the spoon (especially since someone there pissed me off recently). Thanks! --'''<font color="red">[[User:Rock-O-Jello|Listen to the beat of the soul]]</font> ☆ <font color="purple">[[User talk:Rock-O-Jello|Talk to me~!]]</font>''' 22:56, 24 April 2019 (UTC)<br />
<br />
: Hey! So there's some generic starter advice I'd give to most wikis and no single piece of advice below is guaranteed, or a single way to achieve your goals, but, use them with consideration and integrate them as a broader strategy, and you're far more likely to get better results.<br />
: I will note, however, it is far harder to make forks work. Forks by one person are probably the hardest to get going again. They work best when there's a group of editors. Having that community, however small, can make life a lot easier, especially as you're not fighting against your rival. Forks also have huge issues with identity and SEO which can hinder your efforts (and there really isn't a huge amount that can be done to fix this in any small timeframe)<br />
:* Get your wiki on social media - I created a wiki for the NBC show State of Affairs, and while the accounts didn't necessarily drive more editors, there was a trackable increase in visitors (staff perks) - the Twitter account to this day remains followed by some of the main actors in the cast, and was retweeted by them on various occasions. Admittedly, being in the UK following a US show did result in me pulling some rather painful early starts/late finishes being up until the very early hours of the morning to try and get as much interaction as possible.<br />
:* Engage new people - a wiki is nothing without editors. The HAWelcome tool will automatically welcome new editors to your wiki. If you use that, or even if you don't, make sure anyone new to your site has a friendly, relevant first experience that encourages them to come back and help again. You should assume good faith. Unless you are a Wikipedia clone, most new editors won't necessarily instantly understand or know about a manual of style, your wikis individual templates, etc. You may have to spend a bit of time cleaning up the good in their initial edits, and then slowly introduce them to complexities like a MoS and templates (though I would certainly include a link to the relevant documentation somewhere in that conversation in case they want to "skip ahead".)<br />
:* Work out who your potential editors are, and where to find them - this is something that is wiki-specific. Game communities you might find on a forum, entertainment communities perhaps on social media, etc. I don't know every corner of the internet or every topic, but, people that run wikis should know where their audience is. Once you've worked that out, be there. I'd advise you to be smart about how you advertise the site. If you find discussions about your wiki topic, for example, if someone notices a small detail in a forum discussion about a TV episode covered by the wiki that I haven't spotted, I'd reply with something like "Oh cool, I hadn't noticed that, I've just added it to the page on the (topic wiki)" and inline link somewhere that. In addition, I'd have a link in my signature if allowed, normally just with "admin at wiki", or just the wiki name. This would normally keep within the rules, and, you're not spamming. If you find someone that is constantly spotting things, you might approach them more directly and see if they'd be interested in helping out. Other platforms you might have to take a different approach, but, the general theme is don't spam, advertise in an appropriate and measured way.<br />
:* Bureaucracy kills small sites - play it cool with your first editors. There's a lot of things that appear on bigger wikis that impede the operations of small wikis. If you've got a lot of vandalism and you've only got a small team, be more liberal with your admin tools. I'm not saying give everyone that joins sysop after their first edit, but, you don't need a RfA process if you've got a team of 4 editors... this is just one example of some wiki bureaucracy that pushes people away. Give people the right tools to do their jobs and let them get on with it. This leads to my next point...<br />
:* It isn't your wiki - Just because you've founded a site, it doesn't mean you have all the control. Wikis are community projects, work as a community. Have discussions between your editors, have votes where necessary. You're not an army of clones, make people feel included in decision making, be bold, but don't push people around. It's a fine balance, but, it is important to get right. Your ideal end point in building a community is one where you could step away and the community could carry on like nothing happened. Don't take that as an invitation to do nothing or be a nobody, but, your team should have the skills/knowledge/drive to continue without you (even if they do notice you're missing!)<br />
:* Make your site unique - customize it a bit. You don't necessarily have to go overboard and write a custom theme for your wiki, but, make sure your wiki tone is different. Create a logo and favicon for your site. This gives your site identity, it means it isn't just a bulk standard generic wiki. If you need styling/design help, the [[Forum:Community help|community help forum]] is a good place to start. <br />
<br />

== Problem ==<br />
<br />
Lcawte DISPLAYTITLE doesn't seem to work on my wiki. --[[User:N64dude|N64dude]] ([[User talk:N64dude|talk]]) 00:45, 10 August 2013 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:What do you mean? What happens when you try to use that magic word? What do you think that should happen?<br />
<br />
:DISPLAYTITLE is [[mw:Manual:$wgRestrictDisplayTitle|restricted]] by default &mdash; that is, custom titles must normalize to the same page title. So if you have a page about the cell phone manufactured by Apple, you could use <code><nowiki>{{DISPLAYTITLE:iPhone}}</nowiki></code> on that page to render its title "correctly", because for MediaWiki (and especially in its default configuration), "iPhone" and "IPhone" are the same title. But you can't change the title of the iPhone page to "Apple iPhone" with DISPLAYTITLE, because whereas "iPhone" and "IPhone" normalize to the same title, "Apple iPhone" doesn't.<br />
<br />
:Some wikis have a template, usually named <code>Template:Title</code>, which requires additional JavaScript code to work. This template allows to change the title of a page to any arbitrary name, but honestly, that's a pretty scary ability, as it tends to confuse people. With DISPLAYTITLE and its default restrictions, it should be relatively obvious what the page's real name is and thus you'll know how to link to it. But what about if the page is called "IPhone" but its title is displayed as "The best cell phone ever"? Yep, many users would try linking to <code><nowiki>[[The best cell phone ever]]</nowiki></code> and then wonder why it isn't working...<br />
<br />

== Vandalism ==<br />

Hello, this message, already I it put to Cook, but it has not answered, like that that I you put to you, I suppose that your, you will not be inactive, Cook, this one inactively for time.<br />
<br />
1 Vandal one (I am sure that it is only, because his IP address changes, but not for ranges, sinó that changes it with a program that surely he arranges in his computer.) there is vandalizado the page of Jack Phoenix's discussion and they are different IP'S, not for ranges, because the range is different, sinó because they are programmed by the computer of the user, this already goes from bad to worse, because, when the users, undo the editions, it returns to vandalizar. The content that it has put till now, for vandaliar is " Very nice site " or something like that, then, I ask for help him with this, because this one Problem, already multiplying this one (I want décir, that the vandalism repeating itself) and I ask for a checkup him to the IP'S that exist vandalizado, to see if my suspicions are true (my suspicions they are that it treats itself of same it presents, only that programming in the computer multiple IP'S) or that treats itself about another person. In this case, I ask for a solution him, I suggest him: 1-In the case of which my suspicions are accepted, so, would be necessary to go blocking the IP'S while they continue appearing, because in another wiki, I pass that a blocked IP, he said to me that IP and I was programming I suppose that he programmes them with his computer, there must be programs like that. Also I ask you, that pìense another solution, if the mia does not prove (I it created that if, that there will be another solution). 2-En the case of which they are different persons, also I ask you to think a solution and I think the same one that in the first case.Thanks in advance--[[User:Libros|Libros]] ([[User talk:Libros|talk]]) 17:40, 8 May 2014 (UTC)<br />

<br />
: <s>We actively spam ourselves to see how alive our community is.</s> I'm not actually sure, but I'm going to have a guess and hope I remember to file a Phabricator task about it when I get back from work. It may be that the anonymous spammer is using HTTPS, which is the only reason I can think of for it to go through Chirp. We've had some email spam from Vertex before, although this was through one of the forms so I guess it needs a little more validation as the address was probably just random@vertexsIPgoeshere. With this case, it would make sense if the IP header isn't getting forwarded somewhere in the horrible chain of servers for HTTPS requests<br />
:: User (DNS, etc) -> Vertex (HTTPS forwarding) -> Chirp (SSL Termination) -> Vertex (Varnish) -> Monolith (Backend) -> Grunt (Database) -> User (Browser)<br />
: It was initially set up as a test, and has been a sort of hidden feature for most wikis for a while. Once we sort out how we deal with the remaining issue (sub.sub.domains.com), I'll probably move it to Vertex as it makes more sense. I'll have to look more into the forwarding theory, though... --[[User:Lcawte|Lewis Cawte]] ([[User talk:Lcawte|talk]]) <staff /> 12:37, 4 October 2016 (UTC)<br />

== Question concerning Module:Lua ==<br />
I had a question about Module:Lua, which is in-use on the main Wikipedia database. I understand this module — mostly used in the cases of infobox templates — was, at least for a short interim period, used here at ShoutWiki. However, I am also aware it was disabled, due to the ShoutWIki servers being unable to handle what the module called for. While I am sure there are no immediate plans to re-install the module, I did read that [some] ShoutWiki databases could have it installed. I was wondering: is there a downside to this happening? Like, does it crash the selected Wiki, due to [potential] instability? and, also, is there any potential of it coming back full-time to the ShoutWiki database? Thank you for your time! [[User:MusicNation|MusicNation]] ([[User talk:MusicNation|talk]]) 16:54, 4 December 2017 (UTC)<br />

== How to use Whitelist ==<br />
Hello! You told me to use the extension Whitelist, to make some pages of my private wiki readable by anyone, or a group of users. But could you explain me how to use it? I didn't find it by myself. (you can message me on my page)<br />
<br />
Thank you.<br />

== Spam accounts started daily on my wiki ==<br />
Thanks for your work. I don't know if this is where I should discuss this. I am getting spam accounts started daily. I delete them every day or every other day, and block the user names for a month. That seems to be long enough to prevent reuse. <br />
<br />
Is there any way to filter this? I don't want to block good users. I get a rare few who register so that they have the possibility to edit the 2019 page via a specially created user right just to edit the 2019 page: <br />
*http://cannabis.shoutwiki.com/wiki/2019 <br />
<br />
Maybe the addition of links to user pages could be blocked until the user meets a minimum number of non-deleted edits? <br />
<br />
Or maybe user page creation could be blocked altogether until a minimum amount of time passes. A couple weeks maybe. <br />
<br />
User registration could occur right away, but not user page creation for awhile. And then no links until another couple weeks passes. <br />
<br />
Maybe this could be suggested to Mediawiki developers. <br />
<br />
The multi-step process could be built into Mediawiki. So no work would be required of admins on wikis. It would be automatic. It would be much rarer to see spam links since spammers would have to go through a multi-stage process for a single spam link. <br />
<br />
The time period could be set to vary automatically. Or an option to choose the time period could be given to wiki admins. This would help thwart any auto-timing software attempted by spammers. --[[User:Timeshifter|'''Timeshifter''']] ([[User talk:Timeshifter|talk]]) 07:30, 17 February 2019 (UTC)<br />
: Rather than core MediaWiki, it would be better to put such functionality in an extension. In fact, the capability (and much more) is already in the AbuseFilter extension, which is already installed on your wiki. --[[User:Saftzie|Saftzie]] ([[User talk:Saftzie|talk]]) 08:42, 17 February 2019 (UTC)<br />

==Protect your user page==<br />
Hi, Lewis! I'm Dove. I have noticed that your user page has been vandalized many times by disruptive I.P. addresses. Whilst I was looking at your user page history, I recommend that it gets protected to prevent it from happening again in the nearby future. It basically makes it much easier and less worrying to deal with. Plus, staff user pages should be protected anyway, right? Hope it helps!

== Getting more editors? ==<br />
<br />
Hi Mr. Cawte, I was just wondering if there was a way to get more editors for your ShoutWiki site? I'm an admin on a forked Wikia and I want to stay way ahead of the spoon (especially since someone there pissed me off recently). Thanks! --'''<font color="red">[[User:Rock-O-Jello|Listen to the beat of the soul]]</font> ☆ <font color="purple">[[User talk:Rock-O-Jello|Talk to me~!]]</font>''' 22:56, 24 April 2019 (UTC)<br />
<br />
: Hey! So there's some generic starter advice I'd give to most wikis and no single piece of advice below is guaranteed, or a single way to achieve your goals, but, use them with consideration and integrate them as a broader strategy, and you're far more likely to get better results.<br />
: I will note, however, it is far harder to make forks work. Forks by one person are probably the hardest to get going again. They work best when there's a group of editors. Having that community, however small, can make life a lot easier, especially as you're not fighting against your rival. Forks also have huge issues with identity and SEO which can hinder your efforts (and there really isn't a huge amount that can be done to fix this in any small timeframe)<br />
:* Get your wiki on social media - I created a wiki for the NBC show State of Affairs, and while the accounts didn't necessarily drive more editors, there was a trackable increase in visitors (staff perks) - the Twitter account to this day remains followed by some of the main actors in the cast, and was retweeted by them on various occasions. Admittedly, being in the UK following a US show did result in me pulling some rather painful early starts/late finishes being up until the very early hours of the morning to try and get as much interaction as possible.<br />
:* Engage new people - a wiki is nothing without editors. The HAWelcome tool will automatically welcome new editors to your wiki. If you use that, or even if you don't, make sure anyone new to your site has a friendly, relevant first experience that encourages them to come back and help again. You should assume good faith. Unless you are a Wikipedia clone, most new editors won't necessarily instantly understand or know about a manual of style, your wikis individual templates, etc. You may have to spend a bit of time cleaning up the good in their initial edits, and then slowly introduce them to complexities like a MoS and templates (though I would certainly include a link to the relevant documentation somewhere in that conversation in case they want to "skip ahead".)<br />
:* Work out who your potential editors are, and where to find them - this is something that is wiki-specific. Game communities you might find on a forum, entertainment communities perhaps on social media, etc. I don't know every corner of the internet or every topic, but, people that run wikis should know where their audience is. Once you've worked that out, be there. I'd advise you to be smart about how you advertise the site. If you find discussions about your wiki topic, for example, if someone notices a small detail in a forum discussion about a TV episode covered by the wiki that I haven't spotted, I'd reply with something like "Oh cool, I hadn't noticed that, I've just added it to the page on the (topic wiki)" and inline link somewhere that. In addition, I'd have a link in my signature if allowed, normally just with "admin at wiki", or just the wiki name. This would normally keep within the rules, and, you're not spamming. If you find someone that is constantly spotting things, you might approach them more directly and see if they'd be interested in helping out. Other platforms you might have to take a different approach, but, the general theme is don't spam, advertise in an appropriate and measured way.<br />
:* Bureaucracy kills small sites - play it cool with your first editors. There's a lot of things that appear on bigger wikis that impede the operations of small wikis. If you've got a lot of vandalism and you've only got a small team, be more liberal with your admin tools. I'm not saying give everyone that joins sysop after their first edit, but, you don't need a RfA process if you've got a team of 4 editors... this is just one example of some wiki bureaucracy that pushes people away. Give people the right tools to do their jobs and let them get on with it. This leads to my next point...<br />
:* It isn't your wiki - Just because you've founded a site, it doesn't mean you have all the control. Wikis are community projects, work as a community. Have discussions between your editors, have votes where necessary. You're not an army of clones, make people feel included in decision making, be bold, but don't push people around. It's a fine balance, but, it is important to get right. Your ideal end point in building a community is one where you could step away and the community could carry on like nothing happened. Don't take that as an invitation to do nothing or be a nobody, but, your team should have the skills/knowledge/drive to continue without you (even if they do notice you're missing!)<br />
:* Make your site unique - customize it a bit. You don't necessarily have to go overboard and write a custom theme for your wiki, but, make sure your wiki tone is different. Create a logo and favicon for your site. This gives your site identity, it means it isn't just a bulk standard generic wiki. If you need styling/design help, the [[Forum:Community help|community help forum]] is a good place to start. <br />
<br />
: This isn't necessarily an exhaustive list, just a few tips that I've heard and/or used over far too many years being involved in a fair few wiki communities and web projects - both successful and unsuccessful. --[[User:Lcawte|Lewis Cawte]] ([[User talk:Lcawte|talk]]) <staff /> 13:07, 25 April 2019 (UTC)<br />

== Problem ==<br />
<br />
Lcawte DISPLAYTITLE doesn't seem to work on my wiki. --[[User:N64dude|N64dude]] ([[User talk:N64dude|talk]]) 00:45, 10 August 2013 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:What do you mean? What happens when you try to use that magic word? What do you think that should happen?<br />
<br />
:DISPLAYTITLE is [[mw:Manual:$wgRestrictDisplayTitle|restricted]] by default &mdash; that is, custom titles must normalize to the same page title. So if you have a page about the cell phone manufactured by Apple, you could use <code><nowiki>{{DISPLAYTITLE:iPhone}}</nowiki></code> on that page to render its title "correctly", because for MediaWiki (and especially in its default configuration), "iPhone" and "IPhone" are the same title. But you can't change the title of the iPhone page to "Apple iPhone" with DISPLAYTITLE, because whereas "iPhone" and "IPhone" normalize to the same title, "Apple iPhone" doesn't.<br />
<br />
:Some wikis have a template, usually named <code>Template:Title</code>, which requires additional JavaScript code to work. This template allows to change the title of a page to any arbitrary name, but honestly, that's a pretty scary ability, as it tends to confuse people. With DISPLAYTITLE and its default restrictions, it should be relatively obvious what the page's real name is and thus you'll know how to link to it. But what about if the page is called "IPhone" but its title is displayed as "The best cell phone ever"? Yep, many users would try linking to <code><nowiki>[[The best cell phone ever]]</nowiki></code> and then wonder why it isn't working...<br />
<br />

In this case, I ask for a solution him, I suggest him: 1-In the case of which my suspicions are accepted, so, would be necessary to go blocking the IP'S while they continue appearing, because in another wiki, I pass that a blocked IP, he said to me that IP and I was programming I suppose that he programmes them with his computer, there must be programs like that. Also I ask you, that pìense another solution, if the mia does not prove (I it created that if, that there will be another solution). 2-En the case of which they are different persons, also I ask you to think a solution and I think the same one that in the first case.Thanks in advance--[[User:Libros|Libros]] ([[User talk:Libros|talk]]) 17:40, 8 May 2014 (UTC)<br />

Hey, would you still be able to help me with [[User talk:Jack_Phoenix#Hoping you can help!|this issue]]? I know I am responding late, but I've tried fixing it myself, but it is clear I am missing some kind of template installation that is not letting the (Hide/Show) option happen on infoboxes, etc.? [[User:MusicNation|MusicNation]] ([[User talk:MusicNation|talk]]) 19:50, 13 June 2016 (UTC)<br />

== API returns invalid date format ==<br />
I know you really don't need another problem right now, but using the API to query the recent block<br />
:http://www.shoutwiki.com/w/api.php?action=query&list=users&usprop=blockinfo&ususers=Netkeeper<br />
returns a non-ISO time for blockexpiry, "20160818213400" instead of "2016-08-18T21:34:00Z". I haven't checked an exhaustive list (or other blocks), but the other timestamp in the same API (blockedtimestamp) returns an ISO time. Before the upgrade/rollback, both times were ISO, as I believe they're intended to be. --[[User:Saftzie|Saftzie]] ([[User talk:Saftzie|talk]]) 22:59, 15 August 2016 (UTC)<br />

: I went digging around the API some more. It seems not-ISO for that value is consistent with other MW versions. Oh, well. --[[User:Saftzie|Saftzie]] ([[User talk:Saftzie|talk]]) 12:04, 16 August 2016 (UTC)<br />

== OVH Montreal ==<br />
<br />
[[Special:Contributions/198.100.145.75|198.100.145.75]] reverse resolves to chirp.shoutwiki-servers.com hosted in OVH's Montreal data center with a DNS authority ns1.skizzerz.net and ns2.skizzerz.net. 198.100.145.75 has been the source of IP spam in the past. I'm kind of wondering what the story is there. --[[User:Saftzie|Saftzie]] ([[User talk:Saftzie|talk]]) 12:07, 4 October 2016 (UTC)<br />
<br />
: <s>We actively spam ourselves to see how alive our community is.</s> I'm not actually sure, but I'm going to have a guess and hope I remember to file a Phabricator task about it when I get back from work. It may be that the anonymous spammer is using HTTPS, which is the only reason I can think of for it to go through Chirp. We've had some email spam from Vertex before, although this was through one of the forms so I guess it needs a little more validation as the address was probably just random@vertexsIPgoeshere. With this case, it would make sense if the IP header isn't getting forwarded somewhere in the horrible chain of servers for HTTPS requests<br />
:: User (DNS, etc) -> Vertex (HTTPS forwarding) -> Chirp (SSL Termination) -> Vertex (Varnish) -> Monolith (Backend) -> Grunt (Database) -> User (Browser)<br />
: It was initially set up as a test, and has been a sort of hidden feature for most wikis for a while. Once we sort out how we deal with the remaining issue (sub.sub.domains.com), I'll probably move it to Vertex as it makes more sense. I'll have to look more into the forwarding theory, though... --[[User:Lcawte|Lewis Cawte]] ([[User talk:Lcawte|talk]]) <staff /> 12:37, 4 October 2016 (UTC)<br />

== Castaway2000 ==<br />
Hi Lcawte, I'm having problems editing on my account Castaway2000 because every time I try and hit the edit button it doesn't work. It makes no sense to me, and is beyond frustrating. I was referred to you by Rock-O-Jello because you're one of the directors here. <br />

:OK, I forgot to add more details but what adds to the confusion is that 30 minutes ago I could message Saftzie, and now I cannot because of stupid "Session timeout" errors.

== Question concerning Module:Lua ==<br />
I had a question about Module:Lua, which is in-use on the main Wikipedia database. I understand this module — mostly used in the cases of infobox templates — was, at least for a short interim period, used here at ShoutWiki. However, I am also aware it was disabled, due to the ShoutWIki servers being unable to handle what the module called for. While I am sure there are no immediate plans to re-install the module, I did read that [some] ShoutWiki databases could have it installed. I was wondering: is there a downside to this happening? Like, does it crash the selected Wiki, due to [potential] instability? and, also, is there any potential of it coming back full-time to the ShoutWiki database? Thank you for your time! [[User:MusicNation|MusicNation]] ([[User talk:MusicNation|talk]]) 16:54, 4 December 2017 (UTC)<br />
: ShoutWiki uses Scribunto to implement Lua. If you don't have it on your wiki, you can ask for it. --[[User:Saftzie|Saftzie]] ([[User talk:Saftzie|talk]]) 21:19, 4 December 2017 (UTC)<br />
:: Is it stable enough once implemented on a specific Wiki, or is it something that is discouraged against because it can crash the Wiki? [[User:MusicNation|MusicNation]] ([[User talk:MusicNation|talk]]) 00:51, 5 December 2017 (UTC)<br />
::: It's very stable and quite common. It's also what Wikipedia uses. There's a good chance it's already on your wiki, but if it's not, you can have it added. --[[User:Saftzie|Saftzie]] ([[User talk:Saftzie|talk]]) 07:00, 5 December 2017 (UTC)<br />
:::: I know it isn't, because a lot of the Lua modules do not work. Who do I potentially see about having it installed, and once it's installed, if I choose to, can I have it removed? [[User:MusicNation|MusicNation]] ([[User talk:MusicNation|talk]]) 03:18, 6 December 2017 (UTC)<br />
::::: Scribunto is a globally enabled extension on ShoutWiki. If your modules aren't working these days, it's probably an issue with the Lua code itself. --[[User:Lcawte|Lewis Cawte]] ([[User talk:Lcawte|talk]]) <staff /> 04:39, 6 December 2017 (UTC)<br />

==Forum:Need to change text for entire wiki==<br />

I sent you an invite to my wiki page.<br />

An example of the issue I'm referring to is on this page:<br />
http://sultans.shoutwiki.com/wiki/Elena_Alexandria<br />
<br />
The numbering of the contents have a very dark gray background with black text. This is a terrible contrast, I can barely see the numbers. I would like to change the number text to white. [[User:Pikazilla|Pikazilla]] ([[User talk:Pikazilla|talk]]) 14:48, 10 May 2018 (UTC)<br />
<br />
: Pikazilla, I've changed the coloring of the numbers in the ''table of contents'' for you to white. I noticed you've now started signing your comments which is much appreciated. I meant for you to leave a message on your wiki as opposed to hub, but anyway. A further tip if you continue to use other ShoutWiki sites, is that when linking you can use [[Help:Interwiki links|interwiki links]], for example a link to that page using an interwiki link is <nowiki>[[s:sultans:Elena Alaxandria|whatever text you wish to show as the link]]</nowiki> ---[[User:Lcawte|Lewis Cawte]] ([[User talk:Lcawte|talk]]) <staff /> 15:26, 10 May 2018 (UTC)<br />
