Many [[:Category:Wiki Engine|wiki engines]] use or place their source code for download away from their own website to an external repository (such as [[GitHub]] or [[SourceForge]]). The [[Template:Wiki Engine|wiki engine infobox template]] previously never had an option to clearly indicate this; however, it now does! A new field has been created in said infobox – <code>|source code URL= </code>, so please update wiki engine articles and / or categories accordingly. Thanks. --[[User:Hoof Hearted|<big>Sean</big>, <small>''aka'' Hoof Hearted</small>]] • <sub>[[:Category:Active administrators of this wiki|Admin]] / [[WikiIndex:Bureaucrats|'Crat]]</sub> • <small>[[User talk:Hoof Hearted|talk2HH]]</small> 22:25, 4 July 2022 (UTC) | |||

For those not yet emerged from hibernation, the off-wiki [[Internet Relay Chat]] (IRC) feature 'freenode IRC' has closed. We therefore need to find a new service provider for our [[WikiIndex: Chatroom]]. One popular [[:Category:Chat|chat]] option appears to be the service provided by [[WikiIndex:Discord|Discord]].[https://Discord.com] Other services are available, though I personally am not proficient with any; therefore, we need to have a community discussion to find a new chat [[:Category:Communication|communication]] service which everyone (or a majority) are content with. | For those not yet emerged from hibernation, the off-wiki [[Internet Relay Chat]] (IRC) feature 'freenode IRC' has closed.
