About this talk page

I'm one of the server administrators for this wiki. If you are having any technical problems please drop me a note on this page. BrandonCsSanders (talk) 20:49, 11 March 2015 (UTC)

Old message

Still getting the message "This page is not enabled for semantic in-text annotations due to namespace restrictions. Details about how to enable the namespace is described on the configuration help page."Manorainjan (talk) 01:17, 12 March 2015 (UTC)

This is part of the interface for Semantic Media Wiki now ... there is nothing wrong here. BrandonCsSanders (talk) 03:48, 12 March 2015 (UTC)

It eats up 4 lines of my edit screen every time. Who needs this message? I do not even know what "semantic in-text annotations" are, what to talk of wanting to use them? Please remove it! Manorainjan (talk) 07:53, 12 March 2015 (UTC)

I can't just remove it. The authors of the Semantic Forms extension have decided that it is important and newer versions of the extension put it in. I can make a gadget that hides it ... which I did. If you go to preferences > gadgets you can select 'Hide SMWForm help' and the next time you reload your css (probably with a hard refresh) the box will be gone. BrandonCsSanders (talk) 18:16, 12 March 2015 (UTC)

OK, for me personally the problem is solved, also without hard refresh. But each and every of our visitors will get annoyed. Is it possible to make this gadget a default? Manorainjan (talk) 20:36, 12 March 2015 (UTC)

I made it default. BrandonCsSanders (talk) 00:18, 13 March 2015 (UTC)

Size template

Horizon Wiki size template does not work any more. Manorainjan (talk) 01:22, 12 March 2015 (UTC)

Putting 'YourWikiStatus' into the status property of that template is user error. It should either be fixed to be one of the allowed values for Property:Wiki_status, or Property:Wiki_status should be amended to allow YourWikiStatus as one of the values. BrandonCsSanders (talk) 03:57, 12 March 2015 (UTC)

In The old configuration it was not causing any technical problems when one let a default value unedited. 'YourWikiStatus' should be a legit content for that place. It should not even mess up that very line what to talk of messing up the size-template completely. Why did the new configuration stop to be fault tolerant? Manorainjan (talk) 07:57, 12 March 2015 (UTC)

I think the template needs to be rewritten to show a default value of 'YourWikiStatus' or whatever if there isn't a status set, and then the status will either be empty or one of the valid choices. I'll look into this later. BrandonCsSanders (talk) 00:18, 13 March 2015 (UTC)

endless load

All pages do never finish to load.

That sounds concerning. I'm unable to reproduce that on Chrome, Safari, or IE 10. So I'd guess it has something to do with your particular settings. Will you open up a console (for example on Firefox or chrome under developer tools) and see which asset is failing to load or if you are getting any javascript errors? BrandonCsSanders (talk) 04:12, 12 March 2015 (UTC)

I'm using Opera. Manorainjan (talk) 07:57, 12 March 2015 (UTC)

It does not happen with firefox.

This is also on my queue. Manorainjan, can you confirm whether index.wiki has the problem too?

Yes it does. Manorainjan (talk) 19:13, 13 March 2015 (UTC)

AdSense 403 forbidden

neat freak

I'm not so sure that it is good to remove all this from the server move page. I would appreciate to leave most of it as history of an important even and as an outline or prototype for further similar activities. Who knows how often this wiki will move in future??? Manorainjan (talk) 19:06, 13 March 2015 (UTC)

I'm a fan of Thread Mode to Document Mode so that a casual reader can get the quick summary without having to wade through a lot of back and forth. Perhaps you could move the part that you want to keep to the discussion page? BrandonCsSanders (talk) 19:13, 13 March 2015 (UTC)

Rather than just talk about it and ask you to do it, I moved some of the important content to WikiIndex:Recipe for server moves and then linked to it prominently from WikiIndex:ServerMove. Seem like a reasonable approach? BrandonCsSanders (talk) 19:34, 13 March 2015 (UTC)

Who is online

I can not get that extension to work. Special:WhosOnline Manorainjan (talk) 00:30, 14 March 2015 (UTC)

Fixed. I'm surprised this extension has ever worked. I pushed the fixes upstream to Wikimedia Foundation so future versions of extension should work. BrandonCsSanders (talk) 22:03, 16 March 2015 (UTC)
