| I have unified [[Form:Wiki]] and [[Template:Wiki]], so now, when you click on "edit with form", the form is autofilled.
| |
| | |
| Also, I'm [http://wikiindex.org/index.php?title=Special:Contributions&dir=prev&offset=20120405171947&limit=500&contribs=user&target=Emijrpbot&namespace=0 creating thousands of new wikis], from Referata, Wikkii and Wikia. [[User:Emijrp|emijrp]] 04:08, 6 April 2012 (PDT)

| : Cool. There a Wikia version of Form:Wiki? (in the style of Template:Wikia Boilerplate ) --[[User:EarthFurst|EarthFurst]] 12:25, 16 May 2012 (PDT)
| |
| | |
| :: Template:Wikia_Boilerplate [{{fullurl:Special:WhatLinksHere/Template:Wikia_Boilerplate|hidelinks=1}} isn't being used]. There's nothing special on Wikia wikis except adding [[:Category:Wikia]]. --[[User:Ciencia Al Poder|Ciencia Al Poder]] 14:16, 16 May 2012 (PDT)
| |
| :::The Wikia boilerplate template definately IS being used - virtually every Wikia entry on here that I've personally edited is based on or updated with the boilerplate. The 'WhatLinksHere' command won't work (nor will it work on any boilerplate) - the boilerplates are simply used as a 'copy and paste' to assist experienced editors. And Wikia wikis have some very unique attributes, which is why the Wikia boilerplate is so useful.

| : Add [[Template:Size]] to Form:Wiki ? --[[User:EarthFurst|EarthFurst]] 09:48, 12 June 2012 (PDT)
| |
| | |
| : "edit with form" doesn't seem to work well with "Show preview". Tried "edit with form" and "Show preview" and gave up after getting no Preview after six minutes. Retried same edit with traditional "edit" and the "Show preview" worked fine. --[[User:EarthFurst|EarthFurst]] 14:55, 16 June 2012 (PDT)

| | |
| Edit with form seems to remove editmode line from infobox. Is that intentional? --[[User:EarthFurst|EarthFurst]] ([[User talk:EarthFurst|talk]]) 02:01, 14 August 2012 (PDT)

| Spam fighting, less spam fighting but it is still here with account spam. [[Ray King]] raised the question with me of requiring accounts to be authorized as a way to try and cut spam down to zero. We both loathe this option... but... we wanted to put it out to folks, especially the heros of spam fighting on [[WikiIndex]] - to see what you thought about it. Best, [[MarkDDidn't want to have to do it on anonymous edits without a link, but we were getting hit pretty hard the last week. Let's cross our fingers for a less spam 2012. Best to everyone here. ~~ [[MarkDilley]]

| ; January 2010: Using this wiki to [http://www.phoebeayers.info/phlog/?p=1398 organize other wiki work], an idea, what you think? ~~ [[MarkDilley]]
| |
| :: ''The idea is called [[WikiHorde]] and it is a crew of wiki people (checking to see if we can get that domain) - Best, [[MarkDilley]]'''
| |
| ::: That sounds like a cool idea. By the way, is there a place on WikiIndex for discussing ideas for running a wiki? That would include the above "good methods for inviting/advertising people elsewhere to come edit my wiki", etc. Is there a category for wiki where such "wiki on wiki" conversations are welcomed? Conversations such as, for example, the [http://wikispot.org/Building_community "Building community" guide]. --[[User:DavidCary|DavidCary]] 20:47, 30 January 2010 (EST)

| <big>''To avoid the Captcha, [[Help:Login / create account|Login]]!'' and Confirm via Email</big> [[User:John Stanton|John]] 18:24, 20 November 2007 (EST)
| |
| | |
| Changed reCAPTCHA permissions so that a logged in user who has confirmed via email address should be able to skip the CAPTCHA. We continue to tweek reCAPTCHA to combat the jibberish spam knowing that it was not meant for this purpose, it was meant for link spam. I can always ease off on the restrictions but the price we pay is more jibberish spam. [[User:John Stanton|John]] 18:23, 20 November 2007 (EST)
| |
| | |
| Upped reCAPTCHA permissions so that any anon edit will trigger the Captcha. This should cut out the jibberish spam but will likely annoy our non-logged in users - Sorry everyone but jibbersish spam is really bugging us. Let me know if any unintended consequences show up. [[User:John Stanton|John]] 21:24, 27 October 2007 (EDT)
| |

| | |
| Spam has been a growing problem for us so I have implemented a Captcha extension called [http://recaptcha.net/ reCAPTCHA] in an effort to reduce the workload on our dedicate volunteer patrollers. If you encounter any problems with it please let me know. [[User:John Stanton|John]] 14:04, 1 September 2007 (EDT)
