• Hi,how can I upload video in my wiki?--Msnhinet8 (talk) 14:33, 10 August 2014 (BST)

Hi, please request it on RF - since I am not sure if it is allowed, I want to hear from system administrators. — Revi_Complaint? 14:36, 10 August 2014 (BST)

It is alright. Just specify the file format and Revi will make a request. John (talk) 14:39, 10 August 2014 (BST)

• Ok,thanks.--Msnhinet8 (talk) 14:41, 10 August 2014 (BST)

IP Block

There's no need for you to have changed that block - I went ahead and applied a global block :) Dusti^{*Let's talk!*} 19:45, 12 August 2014 (BST)

It looks like you did the wrong range : I think you should have blocked 76.164.201.0/24 to block 76.164.201.1 to 76.164.201.255 - I tried to see 'it is already blocked' on 76.164.201.2 (random address) and nothing appeared. (I am going to bed, so I will check reply later.) — Revi_Complaint? 19:48, 12 August 2014 (BST)

This IP address is currently globally blocked. The global block log entry is provided below for reference:

Kudu's Reconfirmation

I know it's closed now, but the reason I did not changed my mind was because I was not convinced by his comment. — Revi_Complaint? 02:39, 7 September 2014 (BST)

Orain Site Update #2

This is an update of all technical changes and issues during the month of August.

Technical Changes

• prod1 was removed from active maintenance on August 6th and removed from the cluster a week later.
• Orain migrated from RamNode to DigitalOcean. The work began on August 17th
• We moved away from Memcached to Redis for session and general caching on all Orain servers.
• We added prod7 to the cluster during the migration. It is responsible for Redis and static content hosting.

Technical Issues

• The job queue did not run any job for 4 days as a result of permissions errors with Redis. We have rolled back to using the database for this for now.
• All wikis experienced database issues shortly after the migration as a result of MariaDB cache taking up excessive disk space. To fix this in the long term, prod5 was recycled as a new database server.
• For an hour on the 25th of August, users occasionally got caching errors and log in issues as a result of Redis taking up excessive disk space.

Global Sysop actions

If you continue to use your global sysop flags to do actions that are unrequested (i.e. deletions, protections) - you will lose the flag. Your rights are meant to be there to aid when requested or when needed (i.e. spam attacks). I see you using the bit all too much when you're not a part of the local sysop community. Please stop.
