Congratulations

Your RfA was successful, and you have been promoted. Use the tools wisely ;) Dusti*Let's talk!* 15:25, 30 July 2014 (BST)

I'll do. Thanks for (re-)closing it (perhaps the idea of closing it myself was a bit silly indeed :P)! Southparkfan (talk) 15:26, 30 July 2014 (BST)

== Orain Site Update #1 ==.

This can be called the official first monthly site update hence the #1 so; let's get on to what has happened during the month of July!

Technical

During July, Orain added two new servers to the cluster, there were two incidents and one long term fix.

  • prod5 was added as an additional webserver which we plan to use to help distribute the load of web requests and as a fail-over so if prod4 fails, we can continue to provide you all with your wikis.
  • prod6 was added and is still in the setting up stage. It is planned to take over the role of prod1, a server we are planning to decommission eventually.
  • We had a small security issue regarding ElasticSearch on our prod3 server. No unauthorized access to the data stored on the server was seen and the server has since been made more secure. As a security precaution, ElasticSearch was removed from the cluster and wikis were defaulted back to MediaWiki search.
  • From July 30th to August 1st; there were issues with out going MediaWiki mail. This has since been resolved however incoming mail to all @orain.org addresses are still not functioning as of August 3rd.
  • A long-term issue with images was resolved on July 15th.
New Features
  • A wikicreator group was added to metawiki so community users can handle new wiki requests which is one step into delegating new roles and responsibilities to the community. Wikicreators are chosen by system administrators using their discretion.
  • Cyberpower678's tool was given access to some database tables on public wikis. As a result the UserAnalysis tool works on all public Orain wikis.
  • UrlShortener was enabled on all Orain wikis to allow shorter URLs to be used. Currently URLs follow the form of 'https://$database.orain.org/o/$id'. If wikis want to use a shorten URL of their choice; please make a request to the system administrators.
  • Private wikis may now (on request) use image authorization for their wikis. This means images are made web-inaccessible as to preserve the security of images uploads while still being accessed by users with 'read' access to your wiki.
  • Orain now allows the use of OAuth. Please see the OAuth page on MediaWiki for more details. OAuth requests can be made on any wiki and will be approved by a system administrator on metawiki.

File Uploads

How do you upload files on Orain, I'm really having trouble building my wiki without pictures.

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.

Request features preload

Would you be able to include a section in the preload template that includes a request for a link to the extension from MediaWiki? It'll make it easier for the sysadmins. Dusti*Let's talk!* 19:16, 20 September 2014 (BST)

If you can post an example template layout (like url: whatever wiki: whatever *Extensions: **[linktoextension Extension 1] **[linktoextension Extension 2]), I can try. Southparkfan (talk) 19:17, 20 September 2014 (BST)
Right now it looks like:
{{subst:Request_features/Boilerplate|wiki|domain|features/extensions|reason=}}
That doesn't seem too user friendly. What about something like:
| WikiID = Replace this with the name of your wiki
| subdomain = Replace this with the subdomain of your wiki
| Extension name = Replace this with name of the extension you want
| Link = Replace this with a link to the extension you want (i.e. the MediaWiki URL description)
| description = What does this extension do and why do you want it?
What do you think? Dusti*Let's talk!* 19:24, 20 September 2014 (BST)
We should create multiple extension parameters + a separate section for non-extension requests. Southparkfan (talk) 19:25, 20 September 2014 (BST)
I'll take a look at this tomorrow. Southparkfan (talk) 21:23, 29 September 2014 (BST)
@Dusti: is it good now? :-) Southparkfan (talk) 14:32, 13 October 2014 (BST)

Your permissions request

I just wanted to let you know that I have closed your global permissions request as successful. Congratulations. Dusti*Let's talk!* 21:18, 29 September 2014 (BST)

Thank you! Southparkfan (talk) 21:23, 29 September 2014 (BST)

Deletion of Juppelwiki

Hi Southparkfan, as requested, a little confirmation that juppelwiki can be deleted. JurgenNL (talk) 17:24, 13 October 2014 (BST)

 Done - Southparkfan (talk) 17:28, 13 October 2014 (BST)

WRT my other wiki request

Hi Southparkfan, wrt the other wiki request, it was a mistake on my part. I had misunderstood how to fill out the form proposing a new wiki; the earlier one can be deleted. Many thanks, however, for the quick creation of the actual wiki! It will be of great use to myself and others.

How to import files

Hi Southparkfan, sorry for bothering you, but I have a question. How can I import files on http://isv.orain.org/? I remember I've performed such actions in the past, but here I can't seem to find it. Thanks in advance for your guidance! Best regards, IJzeren Jan (talk) 01:48, 26 October 2014 (GMT)

Hi. File uploading is enabled on your wiki, so that should work. If it are many images, we can install an extension like http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:MultiUpload, http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:UploadWizard or http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:MsUpload if you want. Alternatively, you can try http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Scripts/ImageFileMigrator or http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:File_upload_service/Script. I can't guarantee the last two script will work, but you are free to choose any of the extensions or other methods here. Let me know what seems the best for you. Southparkfan (talk) 09:47, 26 October 2014 (GMT)
Hi Southparkfan, no, that's actually no what I mean. I've seen that Orain also links to Commons, to uploading pictures etc. is not something that has to be done frequently. What I mean is importing the content of other wikis in .XLS format. Any idea how to do that? Cheers, IJzeren Jan (talk) 12:54, 26 October 2014 (GMT)
Ah, you mean files with the content of articles? Yeah, sorry, I thought you meant images with files. Assuming you want to import content from an other MediaWiki installation, you first should get a dump with the XML format (can be made with Special:Export on that wiki. Also, XLS? That sounds Microsoft Excel format, which is not compatible with MediaWiki and would require conversion.). If the dump XML file isn't too big (< 3 MB/60 revisions), you can request access for "Special:Import" on isvwiki. If the XML file is bigger than that, it will require a sysadmin to import the dump. In that case, you should upload the file somewhere (e.g. http://www.filedropper.com/ or https://wetransfer.com), and give us the link, and then we'll import it soon. Southparkfan (talk) 13:09, 26 October 2014 (GMT)
In that case I'd like to request access to Special:Import indeed. I have several .xml (I mistakenly wrote .xsl) files and only one of them is big (ca. 10 MB), so I could already get started with the rest. When it comes to importing the big one, I'll get back to you. :) Cheers, IJzeren Jan (talk) 18:44, 26 October 2014 (GMT)
I have granted you importer rights for a week. If any uploads hit the limit - please poke me and I will do a server-side upload. Thanks, John (talk) 18:48, 26 October 2014 (GMT)
Wow, that was quick! Thank you very much!! IJzeren Jan (talk) 18:50, 26 October 2014 (GMT)

Hi Southparkfan, it's me again. I've succeeded in most of the things I wanted to do. There's one big file with about a hundred of articles in it (one big article with a lot of revisions), which is about 10 MB. I've followed your advice and used https://wetransfer.com - here's the link. I'd be much obliged if you would be so kind to upload this one to isv.orain.org. Thanks in advance! Cheers, IJzeren Jan (talk) 22:29, 27 October 2014 (GMT)

Hello Southparkfan, sorry to disturb you, but to you think you'll be able to fulfill my request? I just got an e-mail with the text: "Ojee… je verzonden transfer gaat binnenkort vervallen". Again, thanks in advance! Cheers, IJzeren Jan (talk) 22:15, 1 November 2014 (GMT)
It isn't imported yet? I thought it was, can you confirm please it is (not) imported...? Otherwise I'll poke Arcane or John. Southparkfan (talk) 22:17, 1 November 2014 (GMT)
No, I've just imported a few pages myself, but most of what's in the big file hasn't been imported yet (and there's one article that has so many revisions that it amounts for ca. 5 MB). IJzeren Jan (talk) 23:13, 1 November 2014 (GMT)
@John: ^^ Southparkfan (talk) 12:20, 2 November 2014 (GMT)
The thing stopping me is, I can't get the file from the download source without doing the annoying process of downloading it to my computer then uploading it to another source etc. so this has been low on my list for this reason. John (talk) 13:39, 2 November 2014 (GMT)
Is the problem not that you should do "mv 3021497r42nbjf80352uhgr873u5bg28 dump.xml"? Southparkfan (talk) 13:40, 2 November 2014 (GMT)

Never mind, I've already managed to do it myself by splitting up the file into several smaller ones. Now I have only one small problem: I don't seem to have access to http://isv.orain.org/wiki/Special:MergeHistory. Could you please help me out here? I'd like to merge the following three pages into one (including their histories): https://isv.orain.org/wiki/INTERSLAVIC, https://isv.orain.org/wiki/INTERSLAVIC1 and https://isv.orain.org/wiki/INTERSLAVIC2. Thank in advance! Cheers, IJzeren Jan (talk) 21:15, 4 November 2014 (GMT)

I can do it for you, but I need to know which pages I should merge and in which order. Like: "first merge INTERSLAVIC2 into INTERSLAVIC1, and then merge INTERSLAVIC1 into INTERSLAVIC". Southparkfan (talk) 15:07, 5 November 2014 (GMT)
INTERSLAVIC1/2 merged into INTERSLAVIC. I've created a back up of the content in the case I did it wrong, let me know if this is what you wanted. Southparkfan (talk) 15:24, 5 November 2014 (GMT)
You did perfectly, thank you very much! Cheers, IJzeren Jan (talk) 15:59, 5 November 2014 (GMT)

Dear Southparkfan,

Thanks for right using widgets. But something is wrong, I cannot use. In my test page: https://szk.orain.org/wiki/Teszt2 there are some official demo but dont't working. Please see it and give me suggestions how to fix it.

Hi Southparkfan!

Sorry to bother you, but I have a little question. How can I change the logo of isv.orain.org? I've tried uploading the image under the name wiki.png, but that doesn't seem to work. Cheers, IJzeren Jan (talk) 16:37, 22 December 2014 (GMT)

If you can upload it under the name Wiki.png on your wiki (and notify me when done), I can change it for you. Southparkfan (talk) 16:39, 22 December 2014 (GMT)
Hello! Actually, it's already there under that name. Merry Christmas! Cheers, IJzeren Jan (talk) 22:42, 25 December 2014 (GMT)

Orain's FIRST donation drive!!

As many of you may have seen, Orain has been undergoing some significant changes. To be frank, we've outgrown our current home. With 288 communities, 1,000+ users, and sites like All The Tropes growing daily - we're beginning to look at the long term future of the project. With current funding levels, we can last four more months after we upgrade to some new servers. Our last server change wasn't that long ago, yes, but it was done to improve the overall stability and functionality of the site.

We've launched an Indegogo campaign to raise $5,000 to accomplish a couple of things:

  • We would be able to move to a stable, secure, short to mid term server that has the capability to not only host us now but continue hosting us even if we grow significantly
  • Begin the process of investigating solutions that include us purchasing our own private servers

Question

Bonjour, j'ai fais une demande d'ajout de MultimediaViewer, vous avez indiquer "done" mais l'outils ne fonctionne pas sur le wiki. Combien de temps faut-il attendre pour que l'outils fonctionne ? Merci --Bastenbas (talk) 18:23, 8 January 2015 (GMT)

Hello, you have to go to Special:Preferences on your wiki and then select "Fonctionnalités bêta" - and there you can activate MultiemediaViewer. Southparkfan (talk) 18:43, 8 January 2015 (GMT)

There were some temp technical issues which prevented people from being able to log in, they are fixed now. Southparkfan (talk) 16:45, 9 January 2015 (GMT)

Can I ask you for $1?

We're 9 days into our 30 day campaign, and we've raised $537. That's fantastic! The idea of Orain, our message, our purpose - it means something. The belief that there can be a community led, a community ran, and a community funded website that's not ad-driven or profit based works.

Our community has believed in us from the beginning, and I firmly believe that our community will stand by us and continue to support us. It's okay if we don't reach our $5,000 goal. $5,000 was a best case scenario. $1,000 enables us to stay online another year. It enables us to keep looking at alternatives and other ways to stay online and cut costs. $500 halves that time and shortens our research ability. 11% of our goal is better than 0% of our goal.

I've made a pledge from the beginning. I've vowed to never force ads on this community for the purpose of keeping Orain alive. Ads are what separate us from the other farms we compete with. I will give my personal funds before I enable ads by force. Ads are a nuisance that you should have a voice in. We've toyed with and are developing the idea of individual wikis who want ads within their community. Some people can't donate a dollar, and that's okay. That's their way of giving and I'm down for that.

To the backers who have helped so far, Thank you!

If you haven't had a chance to donate so far, please please do. Your $1 will help make a difference in the WikiFarm world. You can help us stay online, free, and ad free.

If you have a little more than a dollar and want an Orain t-shirt, we've got those. We've also got hoodies, coffee cups, and blankets. Most of these things will have to be purchased in bulk so there's likely going to be an online store for the leftover donation drive items once the campaign is over.

As always, I want to hear from you. If you have ideas to help our Indiegogo campaign please send them to me or email me.

With love,

Site news for January!

Hi there! It's been a wild ride over the last few days!!

We went from being dead in a couple of months to being certain of the next couple years to come! We're sitting at $2,100 in our Indiegogo fundraiser, just shy of 50% of our goal. Those of you who have contributed to the cause, I cannot tell you how blessed I feel. To know that the project I helped Kudu create a couple years ago is providing a service that is helping and impacting others makes me feel great.

If there's anything else you're able to give, it'd be greatly appreciated. We don't receive any other funds. We don't receive anything from advertising. We don't have corporate sponsors or government grants. We don't have staff who get paid. We survive because you want us to. Your generosity has ensured that at least for the next couple of years we'll be alive, online, and free. We'll probably have to do another donation drive in a couple of years, but that's the art of being community funded and supported.

With just a couple days left in the campaign, I urge you, if you haven't yet, to enter one of our running contests to win some free Orain gear. We have one via our Facebook page - all you have to do is enter! Also, any person donating $5 or more is entered into a chance to win some free Orain gear too!

Since this campaign has started we've started looking at what we can do to maximize the longevity of your contributions. We've began looking at the benefits of physical servers versus virtual servers and the overall structure and foundation of our setup. This month we welcomed Tanner to our Sysadmin team. Tanner has volunteered with Mozilla for the last couple of years and is a great asset to the Sysadmin team. Tanner will be teaming up with Addshore to lead our Sysadmin team. We also welcomed FastLizard4 from the Wikipedia Account Creations Team. FL4 is one of the roots for the ACC interface and brings a lot of knowledge to the technical team.

We've recently been challenged on the content that we allow to be hosted. Our staff stood firmly by our communities and made it clear that we support your freedom of speech. Over the next few days and weeks we're going to be updating some of our policies regarding wikis and the content they host to ensure that we have something we can point to when disputes and complaints like these come up. We want to ensure that we're giving our community the best while complying with local and federal laws. A wonderful quote that brings this theory home comes from Voltaire:

I do not agree with what you have to say, but I'll defend to the death your right to say it.

Hello Southparkfan!

Thank you for confirming my wiki request (hegelpedia).

Being a programmer, I started that thing on my "private" hompage.
It's free from ads, has enough space for MediaWiki and so on.

Webhosting there (xyzxyzxyz.com) is very fast but I faced a lot of
problems with SSL resp. https. I think that people don't like it to
see their IP on a wiki page or to send their password unencrypted.

So I like to thank all the staff of Orain.org for their good work.
The concept of Orain.org is fantastic for starting a lifelong,
(more or less serious) wiki project.

I hope my contributions will make Orain.org even more better.
Keep on rocking in the free open content world!

Regards, HB.

Import data from a previous wiki

Hi, is it possible to import a XML file from a previous wiki?

We can grant you importer rights, but if the file is big please upload it on a site (one with a direct link to the file and no captchas) so we can import it via the server directly. Southparkfan (talk) 18:47, 7 March 2015 (GMT)

Thanks. I'll upload the file (it's about 100 Mb) on Copy. May I send you the link via e-mail or should I post it here?

That's up to you, but posting a link here is preferred. Southparkfan (talk) 20:26, 8 March 2015 (GMT)

The zipped XML file is available here

Hi, sorry it took so long for an answer. The dump file you provided is not compatible with MediaWiki; are you sure your previous wiki ran on MediaWiki? Is the wiki still online? If yes, I can generate a dump file for you and import it. Southparkfan (talk) 17:00, 14 March 2015 (GMT)
Hi, do you have any update about the import process? No urgency, just to know :) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Matteodefelice (talkcontribs)

RE global sysop

You noted recently that you think I am possibly misusing my GS rights, for spamming the wiki only. This isn't true, in fact I requested GS rights to fight spam and make the problem better, not worse. There is no longer as much wiki spam as there used to be, so I'm less active in that respect. Is it clarified? Tau Ceti (talk) 07:37, 11 March 2015 (GMT)

Custom domain permanentfuturelab.wiki

Hi Southparkfan, I looked at the Orain wiki pages to find documentation about how to use your own domain name, but couldn't find the information about this. Can you explain me how to configure this? Do I have to point the DNS of the domain somewhere, or the CNAME record of permanentfuturelab.wiki to the Orion server? The wiki is permanentfuturelab.orain.org Thanks, Jurjen

(You sound Dutch, so if you prefer to talk in that language, you are free to do so) - It's generally a good idea to point permanentfuturelab.wiki to permanentfuturelab.orain.org via a CNAME record. Let me know (with the account you used to request the wiki, so I can verify that you are authorized to ask for that) when you have done this, and then I will change the wiki settings to serve the wiki over permanentfuturelab.wiki. Southparkfan (talk) 13:37, 20 March 2015 (GMT)

Hallo Southparkfan, Inderdaad Nederlands :-). Ik heb bij de provider www als CNAME verwezen naar permanentfuturelab.orain.org. , een @ record kon niet als CNAME verwerkt worden, enkel een IP adres. Als je http://www.permanentfuturelab.wiki op de server wilt afvangen, graag.

Dag Jurjendevries, als eerst sorry dat het zo lang duurde, maar ik heb de servernaam voor je wiki veranderd naar http://www.permanentfuturelab.wiki - veel success met je wiki, en als er wat is hoor ik het graag. Southparkfan (talk) 13:53, 22 March 2015 (GMT)

Hoi Southparkfan, geen probleem. Ik heb het zelf ook wat druk op het moment, en het was ook weekend natuurlijk ;-) . Als ik nu naar http://www.permanentfuturelab.wiki ga dan kom ik op een 404 pagina uit, en permanentfuturelab.orain.org redirect nu naar die 404 pagina. Ik zou verwachten dat die op de Wiki main page uitkomt, of moet ik zelf nu eerst iets doen om dat gedaan te krijgen?

Raar. Ik kan het op dit moment even niet fixen, maar vanmiddag ga ik er zsm naar kijken. Southparkfan (talk) 06:47, 26 March 2015 (GMT)
Het kan nog tot 10 minuutjes duren voordat alles weer werkt, maar ik heb de oorzaak van het probleem gevonden, en die heb ik opgelost. Hopelijk kan je nu rustig aan de slag met je wiki! Southparkfan (talk) 16:12, 26 March 2015 (GMT)

Nogmaals bedankt. Het werkt redelijk, ik kan wel pagina's aanmaken en bewerken, maar ongeveer de helft van de links verwijst naar http://permanentfuturelab.wiki ipv http://www.permanentfuturelab.wiki (met www. dus). Als ik handmatig in de browser de URL aanpas dan werkt het wel weer, maar ook voor de eindgebruikers die willen inloggen op de wiki, komen tegen dit probleem aan. Hopelijk is dit nog te fixen.

Ik vind het maar raar dat het niet goed werkt, maar ik heb wel een alternatief voorstel: Orain host ook dns-servers voor wiki's, en als mensen dat willen kan de DNS van hun domeinnaam gehost worden op ns1.orain.org en ns2.orain.org - zou dat in jouw geval ook mogelijk zijn? Dan is dat www-probleem er niet, en kan ik de 'hacks' die ik in principe geactiveerd had voor jouw wiki ook gewoon weghalen. Hoor graag wat je ervan denkt. Southparkfan (talk) 10:08, 4 April 2015 (BST)

Goed plan! Ik heb de aanpassing bij TransIP ingedient. Kan even duren. Zou je www en * willen redirecten naar @ en die verwijzen naar de wiki zodat http://permanentfuturelab.wiki als standaard staat? Mocht het handig zijn en voor jou ook uitkomen, ik ben tot 15 uur vandaag op IRC. Hallo Southparkfan, de DNS van Orain pakt het goed op.

Is het nog mogelijk http://www.permanentfuturelab.wiki te laten permanent redirecten (301 http status code) naar http://permanentfuturelab.wiki ? Zou mooi zijn om dubbele links te voorkomen. Bedankt!

Hoi, dat zou ik even moeten uitzoeken. Vooralsnog zijn de dubbele links geen probleem. Southparkfan (talk) 17:27, 7 April 2015 (BST)

Ceid wiki problem

Shell access to the End of Time Wiki to verify some things.

Good day, this is Dr. Swordopolis from the End of Time wiki. I submitted a couple of extensions to the request page about a month and a half ago for the TimedMediaHandler and WikiForum Extensions. Arcane and Wynter tried to verify their successful installations but without shell access they could only do so much. You can read more about the attempted installation on Arcane's Talk Page and on Wynter's Talk Page. Would you be able to finalize installation of those two extensions? Also, if Wynter is unable to do so, would it be possible for you to disable Dismissable Site Notices for this wiki? I want to use the Site Notice for a dropdown menu bar. --Dr. Swordopolis (talk) 16:53, 24 March 2015 (GMT)

Orain Spam Wiki

Questions

I had a couple of questions. Is it possible for me to replace the "Orain" logo with my own logo?

Wikipedia offers the ability to compile wiki articles into a book which can be downloaded in different formats. Is this something that can be added to my wiki? I wasn't sure if this was something that was available as a plugin or module.

Thanks,

Problems with permissions on eduguide.orain.org

I am having some issues on my EduGuide wiki that I hoped you could help me with. I had asked for it to be private, so I think that maybe the permissions for my account need to be reset. I am able to view the wiki site, but I am not able to access the special pages or create a new page.

Also, when I had asked for the wiki to be private, I was hoping that the pages could be made viewable only to members. Is that something that you would need to adjust on the backend, or is that something I can change once I have administrative rights?

Thanks,

NG23055

I've granted you your administrative rights. Go to Special:UserRights/anyusername on your wiki to grant your members the member/administrator/bureaucrat rights as you want. Southparkfan (talk) 17:26, 7 April 2015 (BST)

BGOWiki

Hi! Thank you for approving our new wiki so quickly! I believe that I made a mistake when asking for it however, I thought that "public" only meant that the wiki was view-able by all, not that everyone could post and add files to it. If possible, we would like to specify which users are able to edit, create any sort of pages, and upload files, preferably in a single group called Editors. Thank you, and sorry for the misunderstanding! -FastmanEX

EDIT: Additionally, while we would like the domain of our site to be bgo.orain.org, is it possible to change the name of the site to Board Game Online Wiki? or if no spaces, BoardGame-OnlineWiki?

SSL error in custom domain permanentfuturelab.wiki

Hi Southparkfan,

I visited the permanentfuturelab.wiki today and got an error in my Chrome browser I haven't before. It is an SSL certificate error "NET::ERR_CERT_COMMON_NAME_INVALID". As I remember our domain didn't used SSL before, so I guess there is a change in the configuration where it is using SSL now, but can't handle it because the SSL certificate isn't for our domain. Can you take a look into this please? Thanks in advance. Jurjen

Problem accessing wiki

Hi Southparkfan,

Thank you very much for approving my request for a wiki. But I am facing some trouble trying to access it. When I try to access its url (juswiki.orain.org) I am getting a 404 not found error. Could you please help me? Thanks in advance.

AbuseFilter & Pages not loading.

Per our chat on IRC, here's a note. Confirmed using multiple computers, accounts, and IP addresses: Whenever certain abuse filters are tripped, instead of loading the page, it fails to load just displaying a blank white page (entirely white, no loaded content. Not like [[Special:BlankPage or just showing the orain logo. literally nothing).
The abuse filter is still successfully tripped, and a corresponding entry is made at Special:AbuseLog, but even if the filter is set to allow the action, the action still isn't performed. Also, the page not loading prevents any warnings from being shown (ie: MediaWiki:Abusefilter-warning.

All my pages were flagged as spam

After spending a whole afternoon experimenting and trying to understand how I might structure a wiki, some agent has gone through and flagged every page I built as spam and deleted the content. What gives??

Barry ( User:Brainstorm )

You created like 9 pages on meta that appeared to be related to something else, and a lot of them had invalid links. Sorry for flagging them all as spam but I don't think the pages need to be on meta. Orain has a test wiki, and you are free to create you own wiki (even if you stop using it). Apologies, but after 2 accounts were just banned for making nothing but spam on their user page, I thought this might be the case (all pages were prefixed with the same name).

Hi Southparkfan! You responded to a request for a (Not So) EPF Wiki almost two weeks ago, saying that the content would be set up from the provided link asap. Is thee any chance you know about when that will be? Just curious because I'm excited to start editing there! Thanks. CK (talk) 03:16, 12 May 2015 (BST)

Hey, thanks for importing the (Not So) Elite Penguin Force Wiki! I really appreciate it! However, I checked and for some reason I don't have administrator/bureaucrat rights. If you could fix that ASAP, it would be fantastic. Thanks a ton! --Chill57181 (talk) 02:13, 13 May 2015 (BST)

I had a question (I'm CK from earlier but editing as an IP). On TropicalWikis, where the wiki used to be, my username was Cp kid. Here, I made it CK since I'm tired of Cp kid. Is there any chance you could move all of my old contributions and such over to the new name? I'm editing as an ip because I wasn't sure if editing from the new account would mess anything up.

In addition, I had some requests (if possible), mainly for new namespaces on the wiki. Chill hasn't given approval yet though, so I'll let you know when he does. Most of the "namespaces" already have pages under them (either they were namespaces on TW, or we just used the tag because we didn't know custom namespaces were a thing), will that be a problem? On the CPWN it was a problem setting up a Forum: namespace, but the tech staff found some way around that so the old pages weren't messed up.

  • Not So EPF Wiki: Redirect to project
  • Not So Elite Penguin Force Wiki: Redirect to project (I think technically the project namespace includes the parenthesis around (Not So))
  • Read: Where all of our stories are located. We didn't think to make this a custom namespace back in the day.
  • User blog: Numerous pages here too, currently in mainspace, along with all old project pages under Not So Elite Penguin Force Wiki:, and Read:

As I said, I'll let you know when Chill approves, but please give me some feedback if possible. Thanks :D 71.53.244.136 21:02, 13 May 2015 (BST)

Hey, Chill here chiming in :P I don't think a Read: namespace is necessary because that's pretty much all fixed now, but the others would be really useful. --Chill57181 (talk) 15:21, 17 May 2015 (BST)
