Also, in accordance with a suggestion offered by Kudu on the IRC channel, I would like te rename my wiki the MediaWiki Alphatest Wiki, with the URL redirected as appropriate.
 * I suggest submitting a pull request for these. Some of them might not be accepted however if they either aren't used on any trusted wikis like Wikimedia or Wikia or mess with global accounts like UserMerge. Kudu (talk) 19:21, 13 August 2013 (UTC)
 * I understand. almost all of these extensions are used on Wikimedia websites or I have personally tested and found free of outstanding issues, so I'll submit the appropriate pull requests ASAP, but User Merge And Delete is not essential, so any extensions that may interfere with the appropriate function of global accounts I will drop from my list of requests.

 * I submitted a pull request for all extensions available from the Wikimedia Gerrit repository not already included in the Orain fork to be added. The other extensions are either available via Subversion only, as wikicode on MediaWiki.org, or available via third party downloads, so I was unsure what to do from there.

 * I have to admit I don't know what I'm doing. My attempt to submit the pull request only ended up in doing the exact reverse of what I intended, and it was closed because it was sent to the Wikimedia repository instead of the Orain repository. If I can only get the extensions installed that are already in the Orain repository, I would be satisfied with that. Arcane (talk) 00:00, 14 August 2013 (UTC)Arcane
 * No problem. You may find GitHub's help section to be helpful. Kudu (talk) 00:15, 14 August 2013 (UTC)
 * I can wait for these extensions to be installed eventually (at least the ones that don't cause problems for Orain at least), but I was wondering if someone could fix my wiki sitename to give the actual sitename instead of "Unconfigured" in the meantime. Also, I actually like the current name for my wiki upon reflection, please ignore the rename request. Arcane (talk) 09:47, 14 August 2013 (UTC)Arcane
 * Sorry, I've now set up the site name. Kudu (talk) 18:21, 14 August 2013 (UTC)
 * I'm doing all of the above extensions - will update you shortly. D u s t i *Let's talk!* 19:27, 14 August 2013 (UTC)
 * Thanks guys, I've been able to start getting my wiki set up thanks to your hard work :). Unfortunately, I just noticed there is no ability to upload files at all, so that needs to be fixed as well. Arcane (talk) 23:33, 14 August 2013 (UTC)Arcane

 * Hi Arcane, did you consider using Commons instead? We usually encourage its use since it encourages cooperation between projects. Kudu talk 23:56, 14 August 2013 (UTC)
 * Actually, I plan to use Wikimedia Commons extensively, but I wanted to upload a custom site logo for my wiki. Arcane (talk) 01:07, 15 August 2013 (UTC)Arcane
 * You're free to upload it to Commons - let us know the file name and we can set the logo for the wiki. D u s <font color="#0000ff">t <font color="#6600cc">i *Let's talk!* 01:27, 15 August 2013 (UTC)
 * I understand. I'm still designing my logo, but when it's ready, I'll let you guys know. Arcane (talk) 03:34, 15 August 2013 (UTC)Arcane
