Your recent wiki request

Hi NDKilla, I just wanted to let you know that I have approved your recent wiki request. This wiki is now available for you to use. Check your wiki request for the appropriate URL (just in case we updated it). Also, I wanted to let you know that as the founder of the wiki, you automatically received the administrator and bureaucrat rights. These rights are quite powerful, so be careful using them. If you want a place to test them out to see how they work, check out our TestWiki. Feel free to leave me a message if you have any questions. On behalf of the Staff, welcome to Orain!

Thank you -- Cheers, NDKilla ( TalkContribs ) 20:51, 16 June 2015 (BST)

I have a question.

Hi, NDKilla. Thank you for creating my wiki.
But, I can't access my wiki(http://pkdb.orain.org).
Do you know the reason why this cause happen? --桃黒舞台行也 (talk) 04:40, 5 June 2015 (BST)

It does appear that there is an issue with the CNAME for your wiki. This will hopefully be resolved ASAP, and I'm sorry for the inconvenience. -- Cheers, NDKilla ( TalkContribs ) 12:44, 5 June 2015 (BST)
I've pinged a fellow sysadmin about this. -- Cheers, NDKilla ( TalkContribs ) 20:51, 16 June 2015 (BST)
Ping @Southparkfan: I mentioned this on IRC but still doesn't look done. Wikifen also isn't working and neither is Sammelung. -- Cheers, NDKilla ( TalkContribs ) 15:10, 17 June 2015 (BST)

How to create wiki

Hello! Thank you for the great news! My next step is of coarse creating the wiki, however I'm embarrassed to to ask this but how do you actually create it? I'm used to editing and adding to wiki's but never from scratch. This is all new to me. --Preceeding unsigned comment by User:Henosis

You can start by creating the main page on your wiki by hitting Edit or create in the top right. Then you can just type anything into the search box and if no page exists hit the button where it says 'Create page name' or similar. You can go to Special:UserRights on your wiki to add users to the member group. Because your wiki is private, only local 'members' 'administrators' and 'bureaucrats' (along with global Stewards) will be able to read your wiki. Let me know if you need any more help. -- Cheers, NDKilla ( TalkContribs ) 12:44, 5 June 2015 (BST)

Permission mishap?

Hiya my dear furry friend,

There seems to be a problem with my wiki permissions for izanagi.orain.org.

Although my request was approved, I wasn't given admin privileges...solo... I can't edit user groups or even upload files.

Kindly fix it at your convenience.

Thanks amigo! --Proceeding unsigned comment by User:Oberyn (signed by -- Cheers, NDKilla ( TalkContribs ) 20:35, 16 June 2015 (BST))

A similar problem was reported above. Please try to contact a Steward or sysadmin. I believe this was an error with the CreateWiki. I can not assign interwiki rights. -- Cheers, NDKilla ( TalkContribs ) 02:35, 6 June 2015 (BST)
I believe I can now assign interwiki rights and will hopefully fix this. -- Cheers, NDKilla ( TalkContribs ) 20:35, 16 June 2015 (BST)
@Oberyn: You have been given local rights. -- Cheers, NDKilla ( TalkContribs ) 20:51, 16 June 2015 (BST)

Hi, you sent me a message that st.orain.org is up, but it doesn't seem to be. Petrb (talk) 14:06, 9 June 2015 (BST)

Hey Petrb! It's been a long time since we've last chatted. I show that st.orain.org is up and running. If you still cannot access it, please let me, NDKilla, or a sysadmin know and it will be investigated further. Nice seeing you again! -- Joe G. (Talk) 00:20, 10 June 2015 (BST)

Hi, Congratulations on administrator! I think you deserved this position. --Reception123 (talk) 20:01, 16 June 2015 (BST)

Thanks! Did you see I got sysadmin too? :) -- Cheers, NDKilla ( TalkContribs ) 20:25, 16 June 2015 (BST)
Yes! That is wonderful! Now you can choose your own Wiki Creators.--Reception123 (talk) 06:17, 17 June 2015 (BST)
:P I have a say in who get's wiki creator, I don't just promote people. @Southparkfan: I was talking to @Reception123: about getting Wiki Creator. He's read the guide and I had him send me what he would add to the database list and type on Special:CreateWiki to make an example wiki, and what he would do if the wiki was still inaccessible. I have no objections to Reception123 being a Wiki Creator (to handle what I wanted to before I left) but since I will be out of the country I will leave the decision to others who will be able to watch Reception123's contributions more closely than I will be able to. -- Cheers, NDKilla ( TalkContribs ) 15:08, 17 June 2015 (BST)
Thank you. Of course I understand that your not going to pick people on your first days. --Reception123 (talk) 20:15, 17 June 2015 (BST)

@Reception123: I was going to tell you this on IRC but I haven't seen you on. I'm handling a whole bunch of wiki requests right now, but if you want you can create wiki's and then just ping me or leave a note on my talk page of which wiki's need CNAME's.. Don't make me scroll down the request page, just put a list of the wiki URL's or ID's somewhere. -- Cheers, NDKilla ( TalkContribs ) 21:04, 26 June 2015 (BST)

Sorry. I was busy these days and did not have the time to go on IRC, I have left some on SPF's talkpage, if you could do them that would be good. --Reception123 (talk) 18:42, 27 June 2015 (BST)
@Reception123: I have already done all 3 of those (among others) and notified the requester(s). -- Cheers, NDKilla ( TalkContribs ) 18:46, 27 June 2015 (BST)
Okay. I will probably create more wikis in the feauture and will list them on your talkpage for the CNAME's. Will the problem be fixed so the CNAME's get created automatically? --Reception123 (talk) 18:49, 27 June 2015 (BST)
@Reception123: @Addshore: should be looking in to the issues, we are trying to fix it. In the mean time please keep listing CNAME's below. Also if you could copy-paste the user-rights link so that I can do that too :) -- Cheers, NDKilla ( TalkContribs ) 19:03, 27 June 2015 (BST)
Okay. And thanks for auto-patrolled. Reception123 (talk) 05:06, 28 June 2015 (BST)

Admin/Bureaucrat rights on my Wiki.

Thank you for allowing my wiki. However, I am unable to access anything in my wiki that admins may access. I go to click on my prefs, contributions, or the 'special pages' under tools and it says that I do not have the permissions to access them. Help?

This was an issue with Special:CreateWiki I have given you administrator and bureaucrat -- Cheers, NDKilla ( TalkContribs ) 01:59, 26 June 2015 (BST)

Thanks for allowing my wiki!

However, I guess I missed Admin/Bureaucrat rights in my wiki after you have made my wiki so I can't acess my wiki. :(

So please check and give me those rights if possible? Thank you for read these! --Lagoon (talk) 20:58, 26 June 2015 (BST)

@Lagoon: Given founder rights :) Sorry for any inconvenience. -- Cheers, NDKilla ( TalkContribs ) 21:00, 26 June 2015 (BST)
@NDKilla: No problem and thank you so much again! <3 Cheers! --Lagoon (talk) 21:02, 26 June 2015 (BST)

Now listen....

You can't say that you're going on "vacation" and then end up working the entire time through your "vacation".... because that'd make you a Steward... which you're currently not. Must be a mistake, eh? I just fixed that mistake. Thanks for your help. Dusti*Let's talk!* 06:43, 27 June 2015 (BST)

Thank you so much, @Dusti:! I'll try to still be as active as I can <3 My vacation is out of the country away from my parents. I temporarily have a new home life, I'm not going out exploring every day :) -- Cheers, NDKilla ( TalkContribs ) 11:53, 27 June 2015 (BST)

It gives me this error Reception123 (talk) 05:12, 28 June 2015 (BST)
Fixed.. You didn't use Special:CreateWiki for that wiki, you just made the database.. I shouldn't have even made the cname. Oops for both of us -- Cheers, NDKilla ( TalkContribs ) 10:14, 28 June 2015 (BST)
I am very sorry. I have probably switched to another page to quickly after using CreateWiki. Next time I will be more careful. --Reception123 (talk) 16:39, 28 June 2015 (BST)

Is it possible to change titles?

Hi!

At first I would like to thank Orain for the opportunity to make my own wiki free of charge.

I am new to wikipedia so I have some trouble with the code. Is there a way to change the titles of the wiki articles without redirecting them or changing the URL? So far I have tried DISPLAYTITLE, CHANGETITLE and PAGETITLE, however using them seems to require editing of the wikipedia code.

Is there a way in Orain wiki to change the title of the page with magic words?

Thanks in advance, Tunavõrk

@Tunavõrk: Please try using {{DISPLAYTITLE:title}} where title is the title you want to display. This should probably be at the top of the wiki article. -- Cheers, NDKilla ( TalkContribs ) 15:12, 28 June 2015 (BST)

Thank you for the answer!

{{DISPLAYTITLE:title}} does not work (because it is used to change the titles only in a very small scale). I made an test: http://tunavork.orain.org/wiki/Oldtitle The title is "Oldtitle" despite the fact that {{DISPLAYTITLE:Newtitle}} was used. Is it possible to change the title to something totally different from the URL?

Access rights

Hi, Maybe there a problem of rights attribution because when I try to access to the url (wikiwhiteflag.orain.org), I have an error message saying this page can only be accessed by users of the group administrator, bureaucrat or member. Could you something about that ?

Thanks by advance.

Zirk

I've gone ahead and given you founder rights on that wiki. -- Cheers, NDKilla ( TalkContribs ) 13:06, 1 July 2015 (BST)

Wiki creator

Hi NDKilla, I would like to know your opinion about if I can become a wiki creator. I want to be one to help better to Orain. Cyborg (talk) 22:05, 2 July 2015 (BST)

Logo change

Hi NDKilla, Please is it possible to change the logo of my new wiki HSHS Summary Treatment Guidelines to http://static.orain.org/hshsguidelines.orain.org/images/e/ec/HSHS_Logo.jpeg

Legal Disclaimer

On the Bad Piggies Wiki (Orain), there's already a "Legal Disclaimer" saying "some content here was originally blah blah blah". Do I need to do anything more? Gabr guedes (talk) 13:01, 12 July 2015 (BST)

@Gabr guedes: thank you for your cooperative efforts in resolving this matter. Technically the CC-BY-SA license requires you to attribute it in a way the licensor specifies, possibly requiring a notice on every page. For the record, mindlessly copy pasting entire articles is generally bad practice. The articles could be exported, set to automatically include templates, and then they could be mass-imported and you cloud say "importing content from badpiggies.wikia.com" and that would probably suffice, but so many pages have already been copied. You should talk to the license owner about what notice they require. @Joe G: is also looking into the issue. -- Cheers, NDKilla ( TalkContribs ) 14:10, 12 July 2015 (BST)

Spoilers extensions

Hello, Coming back to this, what are we going to do with the extension? Are we going to add it some how? If I can help please tell me. --Reception123 (talk) 06:52, 13 July 2015 (BST)

@Reception123: I've forked the repo and shown you where the file is to add the download we just have to make it download from NDKilla/Spoilers instead of that other guys name. -- Cheers, NDKilla ( TalkContribs ) 10:51, 13 July 2015 (BST)
Okay. I'll do that now. --Reception123 (talk) 11:09, 13 July 2015 (BST)
here is the pull request. I'm not sure if I did the good modifications, if not tell me here or message me on IRC, and we will work it out. --Reception123 (talk) 11:14, 13 July 2015 (BST)
Here is the pull request for adding the extension to gamewiki. Could you merge it? --Reception123 (talk) 07:47, 14 July 2015 (BST)

Answer to granting global rights

Hello, here is the answer. Do you think we could do something or this means there is no way? Reception123 (talk) 06:04, 17 July 2015 (BST)

CreateWiki

Hello, back to CreateWiki, what I think (for the userrights+founder) there is something wrong with this : "php5 $IP/extensions/CentralAuth/maintenance/createLocalAccount.php script making it to not work. Could this be the problem? --Reception123 (talk) 18:46, 17 July 2015 (BST)

Possibly but why would this script randomly stop working when it was working before. I know the script still exists. -- Cheers, NDKilla ( TalkContribs ) 19:25, 17 July 2015 (BST)

Anthropocenewiki

The founder of Anthropocenewiki made a request (on my talkpage) for a custom URL wiki.anthropocene.link. I have done the changes on ansible-playbook 1 2 (not sure if they are right). Could you please check them (I have written DO NOT MERGE so anyone else doesn't merge them (as it might not be right)). --Reception123 (talk) 18:59, 17 July 2015 (BST)

Other custom urls aren't working why do you think this would? Other DNS changes have to be made too I think. -- Cheers, NDKilla ( TalkContribs ) 19:27, 17 July 2015 (BST)
Okay. I do not understand what's up with the other custom DNS. Addshore said to email him better than to ping him so I will about both issues. --Reception123 (talk) 19:46, 17 July 2015 (BST)

Your recent wiki request

It's  Done. Could you check the Request features page? I don't know how to add aliases or HotCat. --Reception123 (talk) 12:28, 19 July 2015 (BST)

@Reception123: I've replied there :) -- Cheers, NDKilla ( TalkContribs ) 12:56, 19 July 2015 (BST)
I'm not really sure how to install it (Set up that local "MediaWiki:Gadget-HotCat.js" as a gadget?) If you could go on IRC that would be great. --Reception123 (talk) 16:43, 19 July 2015 (BST) Silvicon said he will do it. Reception123 (talk) 17:24, 19 July 2015 (BST)

Wiki Creating

Hello, as you know I do not have rights, could you create the 4 wikis that are waiting? As Orain's main down-side IMO is response time is pretty slow. --Reception123 (talk) 13:13, 23 July 2015 (BST)
