:{{Ping|Reception123}} I don't think I have the technical ability to delete the wiki, just close them.

:{{Ping|Chemtrail Morgellons}} I'm so sorry that it won't let you add external links. I've gone ahead and assigned you the necessary permissions (I hope!) to not require you to complete the captcha and add the external links. I'll file a report with our system administrators and see what I can do about the captcha not appearing as well, it definitely should be working!

::Thank you for the account change. Hmmm... I notice the extension video is back off again. I don't know why the extension still has errors. It might be a combination of two extensions together like people taking multiple pharmaceutical pills as medicine and have bad interactions.

::{{ping|Joe G}} Thank you, Joe. I am finished importing the farming simulator wiki latest revision XML export from the Wikia farming simulator wiki, under creative commons license. After some discussion with {{ping|NDKilla}}, I've been made aware that some of the Wikia content needed to be deleted, as well as a large number of pages that were not written by me and not relevant to the new farming simulator wiki on orain. I believe I've completed all the obvious deletions, but still am going through each remaining page. I had also mentioned to {{ping|Reception123}} on the requests board, but I would like to ask that, because this is a new wiki, and I am the only contributor so far, and I'm deleting all content that may seem unattributed, I want to ensure no possibility of any complaint or future restoration of deleted imported data. Would it be possible to please have someone run the maintenance scripts [[mw:Manual:DeleteOldRevisions.php]] and [[mw:Manual:DeleteArchivedRevisions.php]] (obviously only for farmingsimulator.orain.org)? I may have to request it be done again in the near future once I've gone over the remaining imported data, but wanted to ask now since the bulk of the obvious has been either deleted or removed in edits. Thank you. --[[User:Slivicon|Slivicon]] ([[User talk:Slivicon|talk]]) 18:08, 21 July 2015 (BST)

The problem happened last month and it used to shut down Orain for days. It's many more extensions than this actually. There's embedvideo and there's what allthetropes uses on its article pages for a menu. I believe there's more. The adminstrators of Orain other than Addshore tried to fix it and could not so they disabled all the extensions. July 4, Addshore came in and fixed it, which lasted a day and then Orain started going down so I emailed him. Addshore, being the skilled technical person he is, fixed it so it permanently would never have Orain go down. He set it so the MWExceptions now get written into a logfile [https://github.com/Orain/mediawiki-core/commit/f1e5359d06f8186d05902e0ea6aad71d4a1f9558] so now Orain never went down from this again. (Wikia does the same thing [https://github.com/Wikia/app/blob/dev/includes/MagicWord.php#L293]). The extention error wasn't fixed, just the issue of Orain going down completely. There appears to be a conflict between multiple extensions or god knows what because when the error occurs, all the extensions I mentioned stop working like they're disabled, but nobody disables them. An hour later, they work again. Addshore has not replied to emails since July 10 and the issue has remained as is. Addshore is a brillian technical person it seems (I thought so since I read [http://addshore.com/2015/05/ddos-of-orain/ this entry on his blog]) but the issue still continues. Embedvideo itself is nothing more than some basic HTML code and it literally just needs a simple template with pure HTML that copies the exact code with a variable for the video and title and it would work the same -- the extension itself however appears to not cache its work for more than an hour and one option is replacing it with a pure HTML template (just copy the HTML code for each video site, likely only YouTube, and a Steward with permissions can make a pure HTML template). However invoking it while similar to invoking a template uses "#ev:youtube" and starting a template title with a "#" character is not allowed, though a template "ev:youtube" is allowed. Or perhaps Addshore or somebody can fix the extension issues permanently. It sounds like near the end of June an extension was either added or updated and multiple are conflicting. I am very happy with Orain very strong uptime this month though. [[User:Chemtrail Morgellons|Chemtrail Morgellons]] ([[User talk:Chemtrail Morgellons|talk]]) 01:42, 31 July 2015 (BST)

:This error can not you fix it? --[[User:MINT|MINT]] ([[User talk:MINT|talk]]) 00:40, 8 August 2015 (BST)
::Orain technicians are the ones who have access to fix it. It is in Orain's server-side configuration. Addshore sent the errors to logfiles and the errors which my guess is are just the vague errors it used to send publicaly, "MWException" followed by random numbers. If the errors can be logged in detail, the source can be found. I am not sure how many extensions are affected but multiple extensions probably are in conflict with one another.

== Request to enable importing ==
 
Hello! I'd like to ask to have importing (membership in importer group) of XML files enabled on [https://cwsplanet.orain.org cwsplanet.orain.org]. Thank you! :) [[User:ConWorkShop|ConWorkShop]] ([[User talk:ConWorkShop|talk]]) 20:22, 25 July 2015 (BST)
 
:{{ping|ConWorkShop}} how many pages are you going to be importing and how big is the XML file? Note that this right is assigned by stewards only and usually temporarily. I'm assuming you want it not permission to give it. -- Cheers, [[User:NDKilla|NDKilla]] <sup> ( [[User talk:NDKilla|Talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/NDKilla|Contribs]] ) </sup> 20:59, 25 July 2015 (BST)
 
== Notification of Extended Inactivity ==
 
I will be entirely unavailable beginning August 9th for an indefinite amount of time. I will be moving from Canada to the United States. During this time, if you need anything that's urgent, please email staff(at)orain.org or contact your next favorite Steward. Should that be unsuccessful or should you feel that your issue is unresolved, please contact [[User:Kudu|Kudu]]. He will have the final say on all issues during this time. You're welcome to still send me messages and I'll reply as able - just don't count on it. Thank you for choosing Orain, and have yourself a wonderful day. <font face="MV Boli">[[User:Dusti|'''<font color="#ff0000">D</font><font color="#ff6600">u</font><font color="#009900">s</font><font color="#0000ff">t</font><font color="#6600cc">i</font>''']][[User talk:Dusti|<sup>*Let's talk!*</sup>]]</font> 03:59, 3 August 2015 (BST)
