Your recent wiki request

Hi Whirlwind, 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! —cyberpower ^Chat_Online 14:37, 18 February 2015 (GMT)

Half private wiki

Abuse log and Titleblacklist filters do what you wish. Check the above on https://right.orain.org. Fiala1 (talk) 19:47, 18 February 2015 (GMT)

Hello! I am not sure, if I understood you. I clicked on the link, but I saw nothing above about filters. :( Whirlwind (talk) 19:56, 18 February 2015 (GMT)

The specific links are: https://right.orain.org/wiki/Special:AbuseFilter and https://right.orain.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Titleblacklist . Fiala1 (talk) 20:03, 18 February 2015 (GMT)

With abuse filter you can forbid, that unregistered users write into the wiki. With titleblacklist you can forbid exotic, irritating and otherwise badly formed user names. Fiala1 (talk) 20:05, 18 February 2015 (GMT)

That's amazing and very useful! Thank you so much! If you do not mind, I will use a few similar filters like you do. Lots of "Thank you" to you!

Sure, they are mostly from http://en.wikipedia.org. The abuse filter implementation at orain is not yet perfect, it just forbids, warning does not work. If you know this, both are absolutely amazing and very useful. Fiala1 (talk) 20:11, 18 February 2015 (GMT)

Orain is still very young, and is still in development. I am currently, for example, working on an extension that allows any registered user to create a wiki of their own without going through the request page. But it will still be some time before it will be ready for testing and then deployment. I wish you lots of luck and fun on your endeavors of creating your own wiki.—cyberpower ^Chat_Online 23:07, 18 February 2015 (GMT)
