• I'm not sure where is the best place to ask, on this site or elsewhere. But I'm looking for a simple way to get some statistics on which are the more popular pages at http://journalism.wikia.com/wiki/Main_Page. -- Maurreen 4.152.51.240 20:37, 30 September 2006 (EDT)
  • This is a question for Angela or [[email protected] Gil]. :-) Best, 69.241.226.9
    • Special:Popularpages was disabled since it's not accurate if a wiki uses caching, so there's no reliable way to get a list of the most popular pages. Google Analytics does provide some info, but it's not all that accurate. You can ask Michael Davis (mdavis at wikia) for data from there. Angela

I can't find anywhere here to give feedback on the UI/software etc, so I guess I'll do it here... It is a UI glitch to put the five-line copyright blurb right beneath the edit box, above the Summary/Save area. If the copyright blurb were moved down, wholly or partly, so that the Summary/Save could be right below the edit area, then everthing I need (from the edit toolbar down to the Save buttons) would fit on one screen; as it is, it doesn't all quite fit, forcing me to scroll up and down instead of being able to set-and-forget.--69.87.200.20 05:19, 30 January 2007 (PST)

Please add redirect from wikiinfo to wikinfo.

Please tell us how to do redirects.--216.236.252.235 09:42, 1 February 2007 (PST)

Click the word "REDIRECT" at the bottom of the edit screen and put the page to be redirected to inside the brackets. — User:Sean Fennel@ 14:07, 2 February 2007 (PST)

When I came here today, it seemed like the whole wiki was down! If you google wikiindex and try the top links, nothing works. It turns out that "http://www.wikiindex.org/Special:Recentchanges" is not working, but "http://www.wikiindex.org/index.php?title=Special:Recentchanges" is working. Has someone been fiddling with the wiki software? I think this is a MediaWiki configuration option. Please fix it!--69.87.203.22 06:18, 12 February 2007 (PST) *** Oh, I see here Community Portal that you are aware of the issue... So I just need to make the point that for the moment it is a PR issue, that would lead some seekers to being unable to find a working website.--69.87.203.22 06:51, 12 February 2007 (PST)
