Questions about this website...
Greetings,
I am expanding the information on my 'Nationstates' history onto this website though for my rugby league page (PopularFreedom Rugby League) one of your admins noted it was probably best if I put that elsewhere.
Do you wish for me to relocate the entire information to another website or just the rugby stuff?
Also, what sites might you recommend? I currently have a geocities website for my nation but I liked the whole wiki idea for it too.
Again, sorry if I have not formatted or done anything here correctly, and if you wish me to move my stuff all good, and apologies for me not following any protocol I might have overlooked

BULBApedia database error
I am writing to you about a wiki i have been trying access for a few days, BULBApedia. It seems anytime you try and access the wiki all i get is:
Database error A database query syntax error has occurred. This may indicate a bug in the software. The last attempted database query was:
(SQL query hidden)
from within function "Article::pageData". MySQL returned error "1033: Incorrect information in file: './themozz_mediawiki/page.frm' (localhost)".
I was wondering if someone can fix this?
- Lord Ares
- do you mean - http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Main_Page ? if so, the contact information I found is: [email protected] - also, you might be able to get some contact information from the people who run this wiki - maybe you could build out their page here on WikiIndex? Good luck! Best, MarkDilley
make a main page for a wiki
i've built a wikipedia named Nepwiki and i want it to have a main page for itself. But i'm having problems in making one. Can you please suggest things i have to do to make a main page. Thank you
- I think you may be confusing a wiki page here at WikiIndex and an actual wiki, does that sound right? If not, please give me a link to your wiki. Best, MarkDilley
Conservapedia, RationalWiki etc
There’s an edit war in progress over Conservapedia, RationalWiki, and The Conservapedia RationalWiki war. More can be found on the talk pages of all 3 articles and in the page histories. I’m biased in favour of RationalWiki. Conservapedia supporters would an impartial administrator to intervene. I will try to summarize objectively.
- RationalWiki point of view: Conservapedia deserves the criticism. Conservapedia regularly blocks and deletes dissent on its website. They want to prevent criticism similarly here. There are especially large articles criticizing Conservapedia on Wikiindex because there are special problems with Conservapedia.
- Conservapedia point of view: RationalWiki are wiki vandals and irresponsible atheists. We struggle to keep our wiki Christian and fundamentalist and RationalWiki vandals cause us constant problems. (As a RationalWikian I feel this criticism is true of a few RationalWikians but not all). No other wiki has such long prominent criticism and Conservapedia shouldn’t either. If criticism is allowed here critical sections can spread to other wikis and explode out of control. Some users who appear neutral also feel that criticism shouldn’t be allowed because of this.
I’ve considered things. It can be a shock when a user doesn’t know that he/she is committing a blockable offense and suddenly is looking at a ban window. This can happen on many wikis. Problems with users being blocked for expressing dissenting views aren’t unique to Conservapedia. To address this I’ve made a new category, Wikis with a strong viewpoint. To be neutral I’ve included many secular wikis as well as religious wikis in this category. Proxima Centauri 04:47, 22 November 2008 (EST)
