500 Internal Server Error

Still getting plagued by the above error, on quite a regular basis. And it has been occurring for maybe about a year? Any reason why we can not find a fix for this? Sean, aka Hoof Hearted • _{Admin / 'Crat} • talk2HH 08:32, 16 January 2018 (PST)

Dead wiki sites

Being as WikiIndex has wanted to list ALL wiki sites - 'dead or alive', and we no longer use the 'Inactive' template (for a variety of valid reasons), I am aware that some folks are still uncomfortable with the lack of instant visible identification that they are indeed dead. So I have long being chewing over ways to improve this. I currently have two different ideas, one is a basic method, but will need manual editing of every dead wiki article. The second idea is much preferred, but it requires new coding to our {{Wiki}} infobox template - and I am struggling to work out how!

Two options for dead wiki articles:

1. In the |name = field of the {{Wiki}} infobox template, use the strike-out function, eg, |name = <s>Felix Pleşoianu Wiki</s>. Felix Pleşoianu Wiki is an example currently like this. An additional strike-out can be done to the article title, eg, {{DISPLAYTITLE:<s>Felix Pleşoianu Wiki</s>}}. Unfortunately, I don't think this method complies with accessibility standards (but neither does most of Wikipedia!)
2. Change the {{Wiki}} infobox template so that when Dead is entered in the |status = field, the background colour within the infobox automatically changes from the default white to a darker colour - maybe dark-grey?

Thoughts please. Sean, aka Hoof Hearted • _{Admin / 'Crat} • talk2HH 01:17, 9 December 2021 (UTC)
