Hello my name is CnocBride and I am a wikicreator here on Miraheze. I also like to give my opinion on various community discussions, such as invoking new policies, new staff members and many other things.
I like to help out by answering questions and constantly giving suggestions to the system admins and the stewards.
I spend most of my time editing on my personal wiki over at Aeross and on The Multilingual Encyclopedia.
Feel free to contact me here or on my meta talk page.
@Reception123 No worries - life has been so crazy with the COVID-19 pandemic that I have totally forgotten about this. Either way, it doesn't really matter - I got a bit of a shock when I went on to it and it was like "Wiki not found", totally forgot I requested this!
Happy leap year day!
Yes that's correct. I was just concerned about this: "Create magnaversewiki". That implies magnaverse would be recreated and Aeross moved on to that. What I would like is just to see magnaversewiki changed to cnocbridewiki and Aeross moved on to cnocbridewiki.
Thank you for your swift reply!
@Zppix Thank you! :D
Any movement on this issue?
@Paladox @Reception123 Hi! Haven't been on Miraheze in the last few days, very busy, but is there any progress on what the source of this issue would be? No rush, eitherway.
Experiencing likewise on my personal wiki.
Thank you, @Paladox! Going to close this now then.
Pull request created. If there are no errors, it should be merged ASAP.
I'm confused, a subpage is, as far as I am aware, any page that follows the main page with a '/'. For example, 'List:Test/Test' is a subpage of 'List:Test'?
I always think of foundation as an institute established for research or as a charity, we do have projects set up to research things but we inherently do not offer hosting to research ourselves. I agree with @Reception123. For the sake of accuracy, I wouldn't call ourselves a "foundation", but regardless, I really don't mind about the name.
Whoops, totally forgot the name "Wikipedia" is trademarked.
@Bachounda Any progress on updating the logo for your wiki?
Backup has been scheduled.
MsUpload would be the only one possible I believe? I ain't a bureaucrat on the wiki so can't change/request anything, so looking for opinions from the commonswiki bureaucrats.
Don't know if this task is relevant to you anymore but there may be some work still here that can be done on a sysadmin end.
This request is very confusing but I can help in regards to the favicon. Please follow these steps to update your favicon:
Thank you Reception and Amanda!
Definitely an issue. Have encountered it on Altverse myself and also during the short time of WikiBase existing on one of my personal wikis.
Needs review.
Both of these extensions are currently not offered by Miraheze and need to be reviewed.
Pull request should be ok.
Requesting @John @Void @Paladox @Reception123 to take a look at this.
I've added your wiki to our services list and your wiki should be able to use VisualEditor and Flow once you have checked them off at https://sainsterbuka.miraheze.org/wiki/Special:ManageWiki under extensions. Once the pull request is merged, the option to enable the two extensions should no longer be blanked out.
Handling now.
All changes done, as requested.
@Squarebob Great to see a Civcraft style server on Miraheze! I have played on quite a few and find them enjoyable.
This has been completed.
@EVTamlyn Could you please add me (User:CnocBride) as a member on your wiki so I can complete this action, otherwise, a person with access rights will handle your request.
Closing this. Thank you @Paladox and @Reception123!
@Sau226 Has this been completed? If yes, then this can be closed.
I'll handle this
I've made the pull request and it should be merged ASAP.
QuizGame has been removed and RandomSelection has been re-instated. Apologies @Arcane21 for my mistake. Task closed.
Apologies Reception.
@Void Thanks mate, I'm sorry about that.
@Arcane21 I have made the appropriate changes and a PR has been made. Is that everything you want enabled/disabled? If so, please close this task as 'Resolved', thanking you.
@Arcane21 Disabling QuizGame now.
Sorry for the slight wait. Pull request has been made.
Sorry for the wait, pull request has been made.
I have made the pull request. The request should be merged ASAP.
I'll be handing this.
@Vitiate Could you please add User:CnocBride as a member to your wiki for a temporary time period so that I can view the image and see if it is the correct size. If not, you will have to ask a steward or system administrator to do this task for you.
Made a pull request. Will have to wait until the request is merged. If Videojeux get's to this before me, he will install the widget for you.
This will require Widgets to be implemented. I will do so now.
This issue is still a problem, I think. I still get very enlarged vectors when they are put in templates on my personal wiki. It is kind of a pain but I get by. Any other news on this? @Zppix
If it is possible that I can do this by myself (I presume not without priveleges), I do not mind assisting with them.
I understand you want to get this done ASAP but system administrators are clogged up with countless other requests. They will endeavor to get to your request.
Then I'd say there is no longer much of a problem here. MacFan said with this extension it can be set to false by default, so therefore, I support the installation of GlobalUserPage.
Pull requests made. Everything should be merged ASAP. I'm gonna close this task for now.
Please include a more descriptive title in future requests.
Where is the WMF Phabricator task or RfC that states that this extension is being installed across the WMF systems? If it is true, then GlobalPreferences could be installed.
There has been discussion on the Community noticeboard about this. I am worried about this as it seems everyone who has supported the motion is already well versed in dealing with Mediawiki in a top level sense. I believe that is unfair to the countless number of people on Miraheze who are not experienced with Miraheze and may find it confusing and annoying having to disable something they don't want. I believe there should be an opt-in and I do not see why everyone cannot agree on that, it is simpler, makes everyone's life easier and allow both sides of this debate, happy.
PR made. Should be merged ASAP.
It seems the user is not replying but because the wiki is active, I will do this request for them out of courtesy. Please also include more descriptive titles in the future.
Need to be merged by a system administrator, shouldn't take long.
@John Cheers ?
I've made the pull requests and they should be merged as soon as a Mediawiki System administrators logs on to Github.
