| | {{dablink|Index of archives: [[/archive1|1]]}} |
| Hi Porplemontage. Anyways, are a forum and a chatroom going to be implemented when things are all sorted out? --[[User:Gamefreak75|Gamefreak75]]
| | ---- |
| :Yeah, they can be. Is there a preferred chat channel to connect to or do we need to create one? --[[User:Porplemontage|Porplemontage]] 22:14, 14 September 2010 (EDT) | |
| ::Like how MarioWiki connects directly to #mwikitalk? I say just create one on DarkMyst titled something like #pikchat or another related name. --[[User:Gamefreak75|Gamefreak75]]
| |
| :::In that case, the wiki admins can create the channel and then give me the info to connect to it. --[[User:Porplemontage|Porplemontage]] 22:25, 14 September 2010 (EDT)
| |
| ::::Doesn't [[Pikmin:Chatroom]] work? We were using the creator's libraries which could have moved, so it may not: instead of update right now, could you install the AddHTML extension to avoid extra JavaScript? Then upload the needed files from [http://www.pjirc.com/downloads.php the latest version].
| |
|
| |
|
| ::::Alternatively, if the server has Perl support, [http://cgiirc.org this] is a lot faster than any Java client. If you do this, it looks like you'll need room details - #pikipedia@irc.darkmyst.org - and will probably have to set it up off the wiki. [[User:Greenpickle|Greenpickle]] | | ==Javascript woes== |
| | Hey. There have been a few difficulties with [[MediaWiki:Common.js|our scripts]] lately. Mostly in the sense of scripts that used to be running weren't running any more. I changed some things, and now almost everything is up, except for the [[MediaWiki:PikipediaUpload.js]] script. From the little that I can gather, Common.js isn't even running on [[Special:Upload]]. What can you tell me about this? — '''{''[[User:Espyo|Espyo]]''<sup>[[User talk:Espyo|T]]</sup>}''' 09:09, 6 November 2016 (EST) |
| | :Fixed it! --[[User:Porplemontage|Porplemontage]] ([[User talk:Porplemontage|talk]]) 11:48, 6 November 2016 (EST) |
| | ::Looks like every script is working perfectly. Thank you so much! — '''{''[[User:Espyo|Espyo]]''<sup>[[User talk:Espyo|T]]</sup>}''' 12:02, 6 November 2016 (EST) |

|
| ::::Oh, missed the forum mention. There'll be the old DPL forum once it's moved, but we were considering a separate cross-wiki forum at forum.pikminwiki.com, IIRC. phpBB is good.
| | == Question == |
|
| |
|
| ::::Finally, could you change the wiki's name to Pikipedia? Whatever will affect SITENAME and page titles. I'd assume LocalSettings.php. [[User:Greenpickle|Greenpickle]]
| | Im curious what the first edit on this Wiki was. On what page was it? TabuuandPeach [[File:MarchShroomCertificateA.jpg|40px]] 18:28, 24 November 2016 (EST) |
|
| |
|
| ::::Oh, and could we have MultiUpload, please? I've found it useful in the past and realised we don't have it when I saw the link on special:upload. [[User:Greenpickle|Greenpickle]] | | :Well, I guess [http://www.pikminwiki.com/index.php?oldid=10 this] was the first non-bot edit. --[[User:Porplemontage|Porplemontage]] ([[User talk:Porplemontage|talk]]) 22:34, 24 November 2016 (EST) |
|
| |
|
| ::::Hey, why are project (at least) links case-sensitive for the first letter now? Is that something you can turn off, or is it enable and un-disable-able in newer MW versions? [[User:Greenpickle|Greenpickle]] | | == Mobile captcha problems == |
| | Hey. A user found a problem while editing the wiki under mobile: [https://twitter.com/KingCowfish/status/812699726848159745 link]. Basically, when trying to save, the wiki asks for a "confirmation code" (captcha, I'm guessing?) but there's no such thing anywhere. |
|
| |
|
| We could do PJIRC or use web chat [http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:WebChat like this]. MultiUpload is not compatible. Project titles are Pikipedia:X. I don't understand how Pikmin:X makes any sense since it implies that those articles are about Pikmin when they are actually about the wiki. --[[User:Porplemontage|Porplemontage]] 16:02, 15 September 2010 (EDT)
| | It doesn't look like this is anon-user triggered, since anonymous users can't even edit the wiki under mobile. That's also another thing – since under desktop, users can edit without an account, why can't they under mobile? If you could make anons able to edit under mobile, that'd be great, but if not, don't sweat it. I think it's more important to have the code problem solved. Me and [[User:Marty|Marty]] also tried to edit using smartphones, but we were never asked for such a code, so maybe this only applies to [[Special:ListGroupRights|non-autoconfirmed users]]. |
|
| |
|
| :Yeah, go on, Mibbit's good, I just didn't consider it since it's external. Make a note here once it's up and I'll delete the old one, remove the javascript and move the help page. Project pages: ah, I see; I just assumed 'Pikmin' remained the project namespace as it was at Wikia: so those pages are in the main namespace now, which explains the case sensitivity. I'll have to move them all and leave redirects behind. [[User:Greenpickle|Greenpickle]]
| | Oh, and a final thing. Do you mind if I send the older conversations here into an archive subpage? Your talk page is getting pretty heavy! — '''{''[[User:Espyo|Espyo]]''<sup>[[User talk:Espyo|T]]</sup>}''' 15:23, 27 December 2016 (EST) |
|
| |
|
| :The automated welcome is bad because it doesn't substitute the welcome template, it's impersonal (...more accurately as a contrast, has no potential to be personal), and it doesn't discriminate (could welcome a vandal; obviously not the biggest problem, but...). Could you disable it? I couldn't find anything in its documentation to indicate how you would do that beyond uninstalling it. [[User:Greenpickle|Greenpickle]] | | :Ok yeah, it looks like the captcha extension and mobile extension aren't playing well together. You're correct, autoconfirmed users would skip it, but now I've made it so all users skip it. We do need the captcha for anons though, so we can't enable mobile anon editing.

| | Greetings, Porplemontage. I am a Patroller of WiKirby. Currently, I am busy with multiple things there and elsewhere. However, in the near future, I may consider becoming more active around here. I'm familiar with editing wikis, but I know some wikis are quite different from each-other, regarding policies and such. That is why I've come to ask you if there is anything basic I need to know before I edit Pikipedia, and where the best place to get started is. -- [[User:MetaDragon|MetaDragon]] ([[User talk:MetaDragon|talk]]) 20:55, December 3, 2020 (EST) |

In Pikmin Fanon's current state, the article area runs all the way to the edge of the browser. I wanted to make it more like Pikipedia in order for Pikmin Fanon to look better on higher resolution monitors, like, say an ultrawide monitor.

| == Merge ==
| |
| Hey, Porple. There are some news, the folk from Pikmin Wiki, the one hosted at wikia, are moving in. The community is finally being united in a single place. Big changes will be happening here. Because the users at Pikmin Wiki don't want to lose their edit history, we figured the best way to keep the history but still allow the content to remain like normal was to import the wikia mainspace pages into an "Archive" namespace (edit history included), where we'd manually merge the best bits of the wikia page with the page we have already. Of course, this doesn't apply for pages we don't have, like loads of ''Pikmin 3'' pages. We want you to create that "Archive" namespace, please. If you have any better idea, that'd be great. If you need to talk this over a bit better, come on the IRC; GP is there from 19:00 or so until 23:00 or so, but I'm there from 11:00 to 1:00 most of the time (these times are GMT). Thanks! — '''{''[[User:Espyo|Espyo]]''<sup>[[User talk:Espyo|T]]</sup>}''' 15:13, 21 July 2014 (EDT)
| |
| | |
| :What about just importing the articles over our existing articles, then reverting them back to the newest Pikipedia revision? Merges can be done by comparing our latest revision to the newest Pikmin Wiki revision. If imports are done for pages that we shared pre-Wikia fork, then we'll be importing revisions that we already imported in 2010. Using a new namespace we'll have exact same revisions in two places, but if we import right over the articles then duplicate revisions will be skipped from import. Once the pages are merged it would be nice to have both sources of the merge in the page history so the contributions of members of both wikis are together in one place instead of having one off in another namespace where people probably won't know to look. --[[User:Porplemontage|Porplemontage]] ([[User talk:Porplemontage|talk]]) 16:45, 21 July 2014 (EDT) | |

Oh, and if it's not going too much out of your way, could you update the other extensions too?

| ==Request for Google Analytics access==
| |
| Hey there. I talked to [[inkipedia:User:Prod|Prod]] some days ago, and he said that with Google Analytics, it's possible to get a list of, amongst other things, pages that readers try to access but don't exist. It would be really useful to have that kind of info so we can improve user experience. Prod also said webmasters can give other users access to these stats. Would you mind giving me access to it? If not, my Google e-mail address is andreluis.g.silva. Thanks! — '''{''[[User:Espyo|Espyo]]''<sup>[[User talk:Espyo|T]]</sup>}''' 15:18, 15 August 2015 (EDT)

| ==Chugga and admins==
| |
| Hi Porple. I've got two things to talk about. First, it looks like you were in charge of the Mario Wiki Chuggaaconroy partnership. We needed to get in contact with Chugga without it being too public. Would you happen to know the best way we can go about this? Secondly, we need to give powers to the folk that used to be admins back on wikia. Those would be [[User:ShadowRaptor101|ShadowRaptor101]], [[User:Ymmot392|Ymmot392]], [[User:jpmrocks|jpmrocks]], and [[User:TheSneakySpy|TheSneakySpy]]. I was meant to ask for this before, but I admit it – I kept forgetting... Can you give them sysop, then? Thanks a bunch! — '''{''[[User:Espyo|Espyo]]''<sup>[[User talk:Espyo|T]]</sup>}''' 13:39, 28 November 2015 (EST)

| | |
| :Sorry, I don't have any info for contacting Chuggaaconroy. I didn't initiate the talks and I can't find any emails or anything about it. With the admins, there is supposed to be a power structure where the bureaucrats do this and I remain hands-off. Given their relative inactivity, I'm going to make you one. --[[User:Porplemontage|Porplemontage]] ([[User talk:Porplemontage|talk]]) 15:31, 28 November 2015 (EST)

| == Difficulty with this website. ==
| |
| | |
| Howdy Porplemontage, I just can't upload files from other Wikis I tryed files from Nookipedia and Mario Wiki, but keep on getting warnigs for the JPG images, and said this for an allowed image type: "Cannot upload this file because Internet Explorer would detect it as "text/html", which is a disallowed and potentially dangerous file type." It's a JPG image, please fix it. Thanks! [[User:TabuuandPeach|TabuuandPeach]] ([[User talk:TabuuandPeach|talk]]) 10:53, 23 April 2016 (EDT)

| Well, I put in the Source URL, in this case the source URL was: http://www.mariowiki.com/File:Special_Nintendo%27s_Facebook_Valentine%27s_Day_cover.jpg I done that, I put in the Destination filename in this case the Destination filenames were File:Special_Nintendo_Facebook_Valentines_Day_Cover.jpg and Special Nintendo Facebook Valentines Day Cover.jpg, and put in the summary and that's when I ran into problems...

| ==Javascript woes==
| |
| Hey. There have been a few difficulties with [[MediaWiki:Common.js|our scripts]] lately. Mostly in the sense of scripts that used to be running weren't running any more. I changed some things, and now almost everything is up, except for the [[MediaWiki:PikipediaUpload.js]] script. From the little that I can gather, Common.js isn't even running on [[Special:Upload]]. What can you tell me about this? — '''{''[[User:Espyo|Espyo]]''<sup>[[User talk:Espyo|T]]</sup>}''' 09:09, 6 November 2016 (EST)

| == Question ==
| |
| | |
| Im curious what the first edit on this Wiki was. On what page was it? TabuuandPeach [[File:MarchShroomCertificateA.jpg|40px]] 18:28, 24 November 2016 (EST)
| |
| | |
| :Well, I guess [http://www.pikminwiki.com/index.php?oldid=10 this] was the first non-bot edit. --[[User:Porplemontage|Porplemontage]] ([[User talk:Porplemontage|talk]]) 22:34, 24 November 2016 (EST)

| == Mobile captcha problems ==
| |
| Hey. A user found a problem while editing the wiki under mobile: [https://twitter.com/KingCowfish/status/812699726848159745 link]. Basically, when trying to save, the wiki asks for a "confirmation code" (captcha, I'm guessing?) but there's no such thing anywhere.
| |
| | |
| It doesn't look like this is anon-user triggered, since anonymous users can't even edit the wiki under mobile. That's also another thing – since under desktop, users can edit without an account, why can't they under mobile? If you could make anons able to edit under mobile, that'd be great, but if not, don't sweat it. I think it's more important to have the code problem solved. Me and [[User:Marty|Marty]] also tried to edit using smartphones, but we were never asked for such a code, so maybe this only applies to [[Special:ListGroupRights|non-autoconfirmed users]].
| |
| | |
| Oh, and a final thing. Do you mind if I send the older conversations here into an archive subpage? Your talk page is getting pretty heavy! — '''{''[[User:Espyo|Espyo]]''<sup>[[User talk:Espyo|T]]</sup>}''' 15:23, 27 December 2016 (EST)
| |
| | |
| :Ok yeah, it looks like the captcha extension and mobile extension aren't playing well together. You're correct, autoconfirmed users would skip it, but now I've made it so all users skip it. We do need the captcha for anons though, so we can't enable mobile anon editing. Archive away! --[[User:Porplemontage|Porplemontage]] ([[User talk:Porplemontage|talk]]) 15:43, 27 December 2016 (EST)
