Another request for Foodopedia
Please change the domain name from foodopedia.orain.org to foodopedia.org? Thanks! Emilyr25 (talk) 21:58, 17 August 2013 (UTC)
 * That domain name is currently registered and outside our control. Please give us another domain name. --Tux (talk) 22:17, 17 August 2013 (UTC)

Wikifood.org ? CN you maybe install mediawiki for me, and set up that wiki? And maybe I can move all the information there? Or maybe something easier than that?? Emilyr25 (talk) 22:34, 17 August 2013 (UTC)
 * Again, that domain is outside our control. Please check for your desired domain name first. --Tux (talk) 00:18, 18 August 2013 (UTC)
 * Hi Emily! For you to have a custom domain name you would first have to own that domain. D u s t i *Let's talk!* 00:42, 18 August 2013 (UTC)

How do I check for desired domain name? Emilyr25 (talk) 02:04, 18 August 2013 (UTC)
 * You'll have to search via a domain registrar like GoDaddy, Namecheap, DreamHost etc. Once you secure a domain name, let us know and we'll take care of the rest. D u s <font color="#0000ff">t <font color="#6600cc">i *Let's talk!* 04:00, 18 August 2013 (UTC)

 * Isn't this a bit redundant to our existing [//test.orain.org TestWiki]? Kudu (talk) 15:07, 13 August 2013 (UTC)
 * If I'm understanding correctly - TestWiki is more geared towards flag testing, whereas this would be more towards extensions, skins, etc. - not exactly the scope of TestWiki. <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!* 15:27, 13 August 2013 (UTC)
 * Yes, that's the point to my proposed wiki, Dusti. I once looked into doing so on Wikkii, but their advanced hosting went belly up, so I was hoping to try creating this sort of wiki here. As for the URL, I would prefer http://mediawikitesters.orain.org. Arcane (talk) 16:08, 13 August 2013 (UTC)

Request
Hello Dusti, I would like to know will my account Tyreek on the wiki be given administrator status and also will my wiki be given the special privileges of being the only wiki to be "log in to edit" it?--Tyreek (talk) 23:13, 24 August 2013 (UTC)
 * Hi Tyreek! I've given you the Bureaucrat and Administrator flag locally. Your wiki does have single sign on currently - would you like it to not be? I'm sure one of our sysadmins could get that figured out - however, it does make things a bit tricky. We generally find people prefer SSO as it makes accounts much easier to handle. <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!* 23:16, 24 August 2013 (UTC)
 * I entirely misread that. Login to edit isn't a biggie - we can enable that if you wish. <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!* 23:18, 24 August 2013 (UTC)
 * Ah I will love to have log in to edit enabled, btw I came here because for some reason on my last wiki farm the staff member hasnt been active to reply to my messages yet, so I just decided to leave and join here! But anywho I find this uses 1.20.0 and or higher, which is ok with me but is there also a way my wiki could uh what you call it, oh the 1.19 version, I just dont like the sidebar of the 1.19.3 and up.--Tyreek (talk) 23:20, 24 August 2013 (UTC)
 * I'm not entirely sure if we're able to downgrade the wikis - as globally they're kept the same. You can actually edit the sidebar though to be how you want it to be. Checkout mediawiki:Manual:Interface/Sidebar to see how you can edit it and change it's look. I've passed off the require login push to a sysadmin who should put that through shortly. I'll let you know when it's done, or you can idle in our IRC room to see when it's done :) <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!* 23:23, 24 August 2013 (UTC)
 * Is there a way to possible downgrade a wiki? By the way, by the uh sidebar I can give an example, referata.com is an example of their sidebar because they are in 1.19.2 version. And I will wait.--Tyreek (talk) 23:31, 24 August 2013 (UTC)

BotWiki (Status: )

 * WikiCode: BotWiki
 * URL: http://bot.orain.org (already exists)
 * Type: public (editable by Orain registered SSO user accounts only)
 * Description: This wiki was created on the fly by Dusti for testing of my bot's ability to edit across multiple subdomains/wikis. Now that testing has been completed, I'd like to re-purpose this wiki for use by bot owners at Orain, whether single-site bots or global bots. The wiki would be used to document each bots inner workings and scripts, and to host the task requests and the logs related to the bots. There could be additional namespaces for Bot: and Bot_talk: (which would function similar to User: and User_talk: but for bots instead of regular users), Script: and Script_talk: (for documenting and discussing particular bot scripts), and Framework: and Framework_talk: for information pertaining to a particular bot framework, such as Pywikipediabot, AddWiki, Peachy, etc. I would like Administrator/Bureaucrat permissions on this wiki, and I would invite the Orain Stewards to oversee activity on the wiki, as managing a bot on any Orain wiki is no doubt of great interest to those who run Orain itself.
 * Requester: User:

 * Thanks for that Dusti. I'm sure that bot1 and bot2 will prove useful in the future for testing, so I'd only ask that they are not deleted for now (unless they start attracting spam). Thanks again. <font color="#000" face="Times">Augur <font color="#33f" family="Arial">NZ <font color="#000" size="4">&#x2710; <font size="4" color="#000">&#x2315; 06:17, 25 August 2013 (UTC)
 * Also, as this wiki is specifically about bots that are being run on Orain wikis, can I get permission to incorporate the Orain logo as part of the BotWiki logo? I would like to have the Orain "O" symbol in grey in the background of the BotWiki logo. Would that be okay? <font color="#000" face="Times">Augur <font color="#33f" family="Arial">NZ <font color="#000" size="4">&#x2710; <font size="4" color="#000">&#x2315; 06:25, 25 August 2013 (UTC)

Discussion

 * for two reasons. Firstly the name " fanon " is too vague, and could relate to a variety of different fandoms. I guess there is some sort of "first in first served" policy for wiki names here at Orain, but I wouldn't like to see "camping" becoming a common occurrence here. Secondly, there are several Club Penguin related wikis on TropicalWikis that are likely to be migrated to the Orain wiki farm as part of the merger process. I don't know when that is going to happen, and whether such an existing wiki would be appropriate as an alternative to this request, so this is only a "minor oppose" really. <font color="#000" face="Times">Augur <font color="#33f" family="Arial">NZ <font color="#000" size="4">&#x2710; <font size="4" color="#000">&#x2315; 01:13, 9 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Go ask the bureaucrat for bot rights if you must really "clog the wiki with test edits". --Tux (talk) 22:50, 9 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Also, if this wiki is only for use "as a test wiki", we already have test.orain.org for that purpose, where new users can gain Administrator privileges easily. <font color="#000" face="Times">Augur <font color="#33f" family="Arial">NZ <font color="#000" size="4">&#x2710; <font size="4" color="#000">&#x2315; 01:47, 10 September 2013 (UTC)
