MediaWiki Testers Wiki
I would like to request the following extensions be set up on the MediaWiki Testers Wiki, with included requested variables for the LocalSettings.php file.
 * Admin Links
 * ApiSandbox
 * CategoryTree
 * Would like to have the $wgCategoryTreeMaxChildren variable increased to 10000 (doubt I'll ever it need it that high, mostly for testing purposes)
 * CharInsert
 * CodeEditor
 * CreateBox
 * ✅ Kudu (talk) 00:49, 30 August 2013 (UTC)
 * Disambiguator
 * DPLforum
 * LiquidThreads
 * Doesn't seem to be installed on Special:Version. Arcane (talk) 00:17, 30 August 2013 (UTC)Arcane
 * ✅ Kudu (talk) 00:58, 30 August 2013 (UTC)
 * ImageMap
 * DynamicPageList (Wikimedia)
 * MediaWiki Language Extension Bundle - This bundle of extensions would be useful for my importation of pages from MediaWiki.org. Given it's usefulness, it may be better if implemented globally.
 * Babel is ✅ globally. ULS and Translate are ✅ locally. Clean Changes will be done locally soon, and CLDR, ULS and LocalisationUpdate will be done globally soon. Kudu (talk) 17:46, 7 September 2013 (UTC)
 * MultiBoilerplate
 * MyVariables
 * ✅ Kudu (talk) 23:59, 29 August 2013 (UTC)
 * Poem
 * Quiz
 * RandomSelection
 * ❌. I recommend using Scribunto's math.random instead. Kudu (talk) 23:59, 29 August 2013 (UTC)
 * RandomSelection is preferred, both as a non Lua alternative, and because the Lua version is for numbers, not text. Arcane (talk) 00:17, 30 August 2013 (UTC)Arcane
 * ✅, although I'd still recommend the use of a Scribunto-powered template. Kudu (talk) 00:49, 30 August 2013 (UTC)
 * Replace Text
 * SectionHide (cannot be downloaded from Git/Subversion, will have to get from MW.org page)
 * If installed, please set $wgSectionHideShowtop = 0; //default to $wgSectionHideShowtop = 1; //default
 * ✅ Kudu (talk) 00:49, 30 August 2013 (UTC)
 * Doesn't seem to be working properly. Arcane (talk) 23:04, 31 August 2013 (EDT)Arcane
 * Works for me. Kudu (talk) 23:17, 2 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Working now, seemed to be a page caching issue. Arcane (talk) 23:33, 2 September 2013 (UTC)Arcane
 * This extension is causing severe incompatibility with the Header Tabs extension (I confirmed this via testing Header Tabs with and without SectionHide enabled on a localhost wiki), and given the severity of the problem (which you can see here), I request SectionHide be disabled and/or removed due to apparent incompatibilities at this time. Arcane (talk) 04:09, 5 September 2013 (UTC)Arcane
 * ✅ Kudu (talk) 17:32, 7 September 2013 (UTC)
 * SkinPerPage
 * Tabber
 * ✅ for Extension:Header Tabs instead, is that good? Kudu (talk) 23:59, 29 August 2013 (UTC)
 * Tabber would be extremely preferred. Header Tabs is mostly good for making tabs at the top of a page, whereas Tabber can easily make tabs anywhere on a page and parser tags for tabber can be used as many times as required, while Header Tabs cannot. Also, despite the experimental label the extension has on MW.org, I have tested it on MW from 1.19 onwards, and I have found it to be quite stable. Arcane (talk) 00:11, 30 August 2013 (UTC)Arcane
 * ✅. However, before it's ever enabled on anything else than a testing wiki, this extension will have to be updated. Kudu (talk) 00:33, 30 August 2013 (UTC)
 * TemplateSandbox
 * Vector
 * WikiEditor
 * Works for me. Kudu (talk) 23:17, 2 September 2013 (UTC)

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. Arcane (talk) 19:56, 13 August 2013 (UTC)Arcane
 * 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. Arcane (talk) 20:27, 13 August 2013 (UTC)Arcane
 * 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
 * D u s t i *Let's talk!* 23:39, 14 August 2013 (UTC)
 * 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
 * The logo for my wiki can be found here. Arcane (talk) 23:56, 15 August 2013 (UTC)Arcane
 * Hi Arcane, the logo you submitted has a white background. While we can still set it as the logo for your wiki if you really want to, I strongly recommend making it transparent for aesthetic purposes. Kudu (talk) 14:47, 16 August 2013 (UTC)
 * I just submitted a transparent version (thanks for pointing that out). Also, I removed several of the extensions from the above list, as they would be nice but for now they aren't needed (and since I asked for quite a bit, I figured I'd be polite and pare the list down to the strict essentials), though the rest of them would be appreciated at your earliest convenience. And finally, what does it mean that LiquidThreads will be "opt-in"? Arcane (talk) 21:24, 16 August 2013 (UTC)Arcane
 * Hi Arcane, I'll only be able to handle these in about 10-12 days, unfortunately. Would you prefer having to enable LQT per-page (opt-in) or have it enabled on all pages by default (opt-out)? I'd recommend opt-in for a testing wiki like yours. Kudu (talk) 22:08, 16 August 2013 (UTC)
 * I understand, please take all the time you need. As for LQT, I can live with the opt-in option (I only really planned to use it for our site forums and for some pages on MediaWiki discussions), and besides, after having looked up the documentation on MW.org, that seems like the best option in any case for my needs. Arcane (talk) 23:12, 16 August 2013 (UTC)Arcane


 * CreateRedirect
 * Wikilog
 * Would also like the user documentation added to my wiki, instructions for doing so can be found on the extension page.Arcane (talk) 01:37, 17 October 2013 (UTC)Arcane

Subpages
I would like to request subpages be enabled on my wiki, according to the below:

$wgNamespacesWithSubpages[NS_MAIN] = true; $wgNamespacesWithSubpages[NS_TEMPLATE] = true; Arcane (talk) 23:42, 11 September 2013 (UTC)Arcane
 * 1) Enable subpages in the main namespace
 * 1) Enable subpages in the template namespace

Creating a skin?
I request a feature be set up on ALL wikis: Special:CreateSkin

Allows an Admin on the wiki to create a new skin to customize much of the wiki's look and feel. They decide on the name for their skin, and are directed to a page where they can write the CSS, JavaScript, etc. that customizes it.

Emilyr25 (talk) 22:13, 16 August 2013 (UTC)
 * Hi Emily, thanks for your suggestion. I don't think that creating a skin from scratch is something that's done often enough for it to warrant the development of an extension. If anyone creates a new skin, they're more than welcome to request that we (manually) add it to the site. Kudu (talk) 22:26, 16 August 2013 (UTC)

per the reasoning above. <font face="MV Boli"><font color="#ff0000">D <font color="#ff6600">u <font color="#009900">s <font color="#0000ff">t <font color="#6600cc">i *Let's talk!* 05:24, 26 August 2013 (UTC)

Variables and SyntaxHighlight
Could you please globally add a couple of very useful extensions? These are mw:Extension:Variables and mw:Extension:SyntaxHighlight. Beyond being necessary for my bot, the former is a required dependency for a lot of other common templates, as it provides the missing ability to define and use local variables. AugurNZ (talk) 02:38, 20 August 2013 (UTC)
 * I support both being added globally, especially the second extension, as it would be especially useful for my wiki, and it would be useful for anyone wanting to submit coding additions to Orain wiki style sheets or JS files. I have used both extensions, and they are quite stable and worth adding for a multitude of purposes. Arcane (talk) 03:36, 20 August 2013 (UTC)Arcane
 * --Zhuyifei1999 (talk) 16:29, 22 August 2013 (UTC)
 * I'd like to start setting up the pages for my bot No8WiredBot here on Orain, similar to the pages that support my test bot AbotTOIR. I mentioned on IRC that I intend to make a bigger and better bot here, but I'm going to need some tools to do that, particularly the Variables extension. Any idea if/when this is likely to happen? <font color="#000" face="Times">Augur <font color="#33f" family="Arial">NZ <font color="#000" size="4">&#x2710; <font size="4" color="#000">&#x2315; 09:58, 23 August 2013 (UTC)

✅ A sysadmin may add the values in a push. <font face="MV Boli"><font color="#ff0000">D <font color="#ff6600">u <font color="#009900">s <font color="#0000ff">t <font color="#6600cc">i *Let's talk!* 05:23, 26 August 2013 (UTC)
 * Any idea when this is going to happen? I don't mean to be pushy(pun intended) but my creativity is being stifled without the Variables extension. Much of what I do relies on the parser function. From there I tend to use a named variable, particularly when simplifying overly-complex templates. And I love to template things :-)  <font color="#000" face="Times">Augur <font color="#33f" family="Arial">NZ <font color="#000" size="4">&#x2710; <font size="4" color="#000">&#x2315;  19:39, 27 August 2013 (UTC)
 * ✅ Addshore (talk) 08:29, 29 August 2013 (UTC)

Labeled Section Transclusion
Would it be possible to add the Labeled Section Transclusion extension globally to all Orain wikis? This extension is extremely useful, allowing you to name and individually transcluded parts of a page into another page. This gives greater flexibility than any other inclusion control device, such as, , or even. Even if it isn't approved as a new global extension for all Orain wikis, please consider installing it at least on BotWiki. Thanks. <font color="#000" face="Times">Augur <font color="#33f" family="Arial">NZ <font color="#000" size="4">&#x2710; <font size="4" color="#000">&#x2315; 20:07, 27 August 2013 (UTC)
 * ✅ for botwiki only (also I added a name to the site) Addshore (talk) 08:50, 29 August 2013 (UTC)

Global (2)
mw:Extension:Interwiki with $wgInterwikiViewOnly = True -- to view the Interwiki table. --Zhuyifei1999 (talk) 16:29, 22 August 2013 (UTC)
 * This is something I use a lot. Maybe the Special:SiteMatrix pages could be included in it as well? <font color="#000" face="Times">Augur <font color="#33f" family="Arial">NZ <font color="#000" size="4">&#x2710; <font size="4" color="#000">&#x2315; 19:42, 22 August 2013 (UTC)

✅ A sysadmin may add this value globally. <font face="MV Boli"><font color="#ff0000">D <font color="#ff6600">u <font color="#009900">s <font color="#0000ff">t <font color="#6600cc">i *Let's talk!* 05:23, 26 August 2013 (UTC)
 * ✅ Addshore (talk) 08:56, 29 August 2013 (UTC)
 * This isn't very useful right now since the Interwiki extension only displays interlanguage links on our site, of which there are currently none. Kudu (talk) 23:31, 29 August 2013 (UTC)
 * I'm finding on the BotWiki that this extension is only returning the error message Error: The interwiki table is empty, or something else went wrong. Do I need to populate this myself, similar to the Gadgets issue below, or is this table populated at a global level by the Orain Stewards? <font color="#000" face="Times">Augur <font color="#33f" family="Arial">NZ <font color="#000" size="4">&#x2710; <font size="4" color="#000">&#x2315;  04:09, 2 September 2013 (EDT)
 * Same as TrainWiki too. and I am not sure, when my talk page changed, mail hasn't arrived. 레비 ReviDiscuss WMF wikis 04:14, 2 September 2013 (EDT)
 * To clarify what I said before, interwiki links are set globally at Special:Interwiki. On local wikis, Special:Interwiki is for interlanguage links. Kudu (talk) 23:29, 2 September 2013 (UTC)

Custom Namespaces
Could someone please add some custom namespaces to BotWiki. I would like to add the following custom namespaces... I have no preferences for the other index numbers. <font color="#000" face="Times">Augur <font color="#33f" family="Arial">NZ <font color="#000" size="4">&#x2710; <font size="4" color="#000">&#x2315; 06:56, 25 August 2013 (UTC)
 * Bot:
 * Bot_talk:
 * Script:
 * Script_talk:
 * Framework: (possibly as an alias of the predefined Project: namespace)
 * Framework_talk: (possibly as an alias of the predefined Project_talk: namespace)

✅: A sysadmin should add the following in a push:

$wgExtraNamespaces[500] = "Bot"; $wgExtraNamespaces[501] = "Bot_talk"; $wgExtraNamespaces[502] = "Script"; $wgExtraNamespaces[503] = "Script_talk"; $wgExtraNamespaces[504] = "Framework"; $wgExtraNamespaces[505] = "Framework_talk";


 * Thanks, <font face="MV Boli"><font color="#ff0000">D <font color="#ff6600">u <font color="#009900">s <font color="#0000ff">t <font color="#6600cc">i *Let's talk!* 05:22, 26 August 2013 (UTC)
 * Thanks for that. Can I also add Run: and Run_talk: to that list please? One thing I learned from my experiences at The Test Wiki is that my Scripts page didn't actually contain scripts. A script, as will be found in the custom Script: namespace you approved above, is a module of a framework. What I was calling a script previously was actually a "bot run" which implements a particular script or scripts. So this time I'd like to clearly differentiate scripts from runs. Thanks. <font color="#000" face="Times">Augur <font color="#33f" family="Arial">NZ <font color="#000" size="4">&#x2710; <font size="4" color="#000">&#x2315; 19:53, 27 August 2013 (UTC)

 * ✅ Kudu (talk) 00:23, 30 August 2013 (UTC)

Subpages
Could someone please enable subpages for BotWiki on the custom namespaces listed in the section above along with the Main namespace, and the following additional namespaces... This will allow me to, for instance, have a Documentation template that transcludes in a template's documentation from its /doc subpage. BotWiki really needs subpages to be enabled. I understand from reading the MediaWiki wiki that many namespaces have subpages enabled by default. <font color="#000" face="Times">Augur <font color="#33f" family="Arial">NZ <font color="#000" size="4">&#x2710; <font size="4" color="#000">&#x2315; 01:18, 26 August 2013 (UTC)
 * Category:
 * Category_talk:
 * Template:

Sitename
I think many default features have not yet been configured for BotWiki because of the way it was initially created. When Dusti created this wiki, it was only intended to be used for simple bot testing, and not as a full-blown wiki. Now that I'm trying to use it as a regular wiki, like any other wiki in the Orain wiki farm, I'm finding that there are things missing. For one thing, the $wgSitename is still set to Unconfigured. Could someone please go through and check all the default settings for the BotWiki wiki, against the proposal? Thanks. <font color="#000" face="Times">Augur <font color="#33f" family="Arial">NZ <font color="#000" size="4">&#x2710; <font size="4" color="#000">&#x2315; 02:46, 26 August 2013 (UTC)

✅ The $wgSiteName will be set in the next push. <font face="MV Boli"><font color="#ff0000">D <font color="#ff6600">u <font color="#009900">s <font color="#0000ff">t <font color="#6600cc">i *Let's talk!* 05:25, 26 August 2013 (UTC) ✅ <font face="MV Boli"><font color="#ff0000">D <font color="#ff6600">u <font color="#009900">s <font color="#0000ff">t <font color="#6600cc">i *Let's talk!* 18:26, 29 August 2013 (UTC)
 * Pages on the BotWiki that rely on the sitename are still showing as Unconfigured, such as the Community Portal link. I've tried  and also   but neither seem to help.

Gadgets
Although the Gadgets extension is installed in BotWiki, it doesn't seem to be enabled as I don't have a "Gadgets" tab in my Special:Preferences.

 * You'll actually need to import gadgets - as I did with TestWiki. (See the RC feed). You'll need to create the specific gadgets you wish to have iirc. <font face="MV Boli"><font color="#ff0000">D <font color="#ff6600">u <font color="#009900">s <font color="#0000ff">t <font color="#6600cc">i *Let's talk!* 09:31, 29 August 2013 (UTC)

Tabber
I was setting up a reciprocal arrangement with MediaWikiTesters when I came across the Tabber extension (I can see this arrangement is going to be beneficial for me, learning about cool things like the Tabber extension). Could Tabber be added to the BotWiki during the next push please? It's not urgent, so just whenever the next push happens will be fine. Thanks. <font color="#000" face="Times">Augur <font color="#33f" family="Arial">NZ <font color="#000" size="4">&#x2710; <font size="4" color="#000">&#x2315; 17:30, 2 September 2013 (EDT)

Foodopedia
Could you please remove the "List of Orain Wikis" and "AbuseFilter" special pages from my wiki? Thanks! Emilyr25 (talk) 04:32, 26 August 2013 (UTC)
 * - Unfortunately, as all wikis are within the network - The list of wikis needs to stay. This helps users find other wikis that may also be of interest to them. Also, as we utilize SSO and CentralAuth - if they click on those links their account is auto-created on the wiki locally, which aids with user interest. AbuseFilter is needed as we have global filters to help filter and prevent spam. <font face="MV Boli"><font color="#ff0000">D <font color="#ff6600">u <font color="#009900">s <font color="#0000ff">t <font color="#6600cc">i *Let's talk!* 05:18, 26 August 2013 (UTC)

Can you please install the PostComment extension on http://foodopedia.orain.org/wiki/Home. Thanks Emilyr25 (talk) 04:40, 26 August 2013 (UTC)

Thank you again, Guerreiro Wikinambá (talk) 00:05, 8 September 2013 (UTC)


 * Hi Guerreiro. Many of the extensions you requested are technical and are not features: MWSearch, SwiftCloudFiles, TrustedXFF, etc. Please limit your requests to new features; the best way to implement the backend for existing ones is off-topic for this page.

 * I didn't get, you are asking me to create another list, in another place (not specify), to install things that have similar installation?? Guerreiro Wikinambá (talk) 00:29, 9 September 2013 (UTC)

Computer Clan Wiki
To whom it may concern:

Can you guys put a rich text editor on my wiki? I don't really like the default one.

Thanks.

Edit:

I would also like the following custom namespaces:

ReelDealVideoCatalog

CCLPCatalog

Thanks

alleniawiki.orain.org
I would like to get my logo changed for my wiki, as well has have the wiki named(i.e. the tab says "Unconfigured"). The picture is at [|this] location on box.com. The logo is temporary and will be changed again after a few months when I have the time to create a proper logo.
 * I set up your wiki name. Could you please upload the logo to Wikimedia Commons? Kudu (talk) 22:13, 29 September 2013 (UTC)

patereswiki
I would like for a start to install for me

1)the Semantic Bundle extensions (http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Semantic_Bundle)

2)display external images using only the url
 * ❌ for security reasons. Kudu (talk) 21:56, 29 September 2013 (UTC)

3)widgets extension (http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Widgets)

4)quiz extension (http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Quiz)

6)Tabber extension
 * ❌ for now (not security-tested). Kudu (talk) 21:56, 29 September 2013 (UTC)
 * ✅ as it has since been enabled on another wiki but kudu  ·addshore·  talk to me! 17:29, 15 October 2013 (UTC)

Thank you...
 * (hijacking) While someone is installing the Tabber extension for this wiki, I had requested it some time ago also, for the [//botwiki.orain.org BotWiki].

GrayhawkWiki
I have two requests:
 * 1) I forgot to make sure that the logo was the correct size. This one is 135x135, which I think is right: |here
 * 2) Is it possible either get permission to add new user groups or to have new groups added? I would like to have some pages viewable to only some members.
 * New logo will be set shortly. For groups, you can add all members to the members group, if necessary you may ask for new rights to be added here but note this is not a CMS so page by page access is not possible. John (talk) 08:01, 6 October 2013 (UTC)
 * Understood. Does that mean that we cannot add something like the Improved Access Control extension: |here. I have read the page and understand the limitations. However, I think it would suffice for my purposes, if we could have it added. Thanks. --Fiero (talk) 15:24, 7 October 2013 (UTC)
 * Ok. I guess we will have to work something else out.

Can we add the MobileFrontEnd Extension? []--Fiero (talk) 06:12, 10 October 2013 (UTC)

Encyclopedia National
Hello, we would love to request the feature of uploading pdf files upon the wiki. For some reason it only allows us to upload images and not pdfs or mp3s.--Tyreek (talk) 14:46, 12 October 2013 (UTC)
 * This will need modification of $wgFileExtensions. This is currently set to ( 'png', 'jpg', 'jpeg', 'ogg' ). We should probably have a small discussion and decide what extra we wish to add. Addshore (talk) 16:57, 15 October 2013 (UTC)

A visual editor
Hi, it would be great to have a visual editor like VisualEditor. ;) Most of our expected users won't have any wikitext editing experience and for them it will take less effort to start editing with a tool like that. Thank you.--QuimGil (talk) 17:10, 12 October 2013 (UTC)
 * Kudu has said they are still testing it; VisualEditor also is resource intensive and Orain needs to precisely measure the level of strain caused. --Jeff (talk) (contribs) 19:05, 14 October 2013 (UTC)
 * Indeed I also think we should wait a little while longer and potentially improve our infrastructure first :)  ·addshore·  talk to me! 17:19, 15 October 2013 (UTC)

Logo
Hello, could you please change the default logo of WikiConstitució for File:Flag of Catalonia.svg? Thank you!--QuimGil (talk) 17:04, 14 October 2013 (UTC)
 * ✅ though logo size may be an issue with display. John (talk) 21:02, 14 October 2013 (UTC)
 * Please remove the custom logo at http://wikiconstitucio.orain.org/wiki/Main_Page . (long story, I will submit an image with the approriate size. Being an svg I thought it would scale automatically). Sorry for the hassle!--QuimGil (talk) 21:17, 14 October 2013 (UTC)

Subdomain should point to "Portada"
Currently https://wikiconstitucio.orain.org points to https://wikiconstitucio.orain.org/wiki/Main_Page but it should point to https://wikiconstitucio.orain.org/wiki/Portada instead. We could configure https://wikiconstitucio.orain.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Mainpage but I guess the rest requires access to the server. Thank you again.--QuimGil (talk) 17:39, 14 October 2013 (UTC)
 * QuimGil, all you need to do now is to move Main Page to Portada. --Jeff (talk) (contribs) 19:07, 14 October 2013 (UTC)
 * Yes, this has been done as well. However, users landing to the homepage after clicking https://wikiconstitucio.orain.org see the ugly "(S'ha redirigit des de: Main Page)". OK, I'll hide it via CSS.--QuimGil (talk) 19:37, 14 October 2013 (UTC)

Let's add some memcached daemons
Just to make things sweeter, let's use some Memcached.

Or, let's use Redis. :)

DAEMONS! --Jeff (talk) (contribs) 00:08, 16 October 2013 (UTC)

Mod-A-Mob
Hi guys, can you add namespaces Projet, Discussion Projet, Portail, Discussion Portail, Tutoriels, Discussion Tutoriels and Portail-Tutoriels, Discussion Portail-Tutoriels to my wiki ??

Thanks,

--Benjozork (talk) 21:38, 16 October 2013 (UTC)
 * Oh, and by the way, can you add the forum extension you have on the meta wiki ? (if this is an extension, if not,      installThis.)
 * Thanks,

Local uploads
Could local uploads be enabled on [//fmds.orain.org fmds.orain.org] please? I would normally be quite happy to upload images to Commons, and I'm a keen advocate of Creative Commons licensing. However, for this particular project I think it would be best to keep images local. I'll be generating network maps and images pertinent only to my home LAN which I don't really want to be making public. Any publicly available images, such as images of computer systems and components, I'll try to source through InstantCommons wherever applicable.
