A fix for some display anomalies for the Monaco skin
The Monaco skin doesn't play nice with the WikiEditor, which results in some display anomalies, such as a black line atop the main toolbar and it causes the search and replace button to bleed off the screen to the right.

Thankfully, I came up with a fix I implemented on my own wiki to solve the problem:

/* My fixes for display errors with the WikiEditor extension */ /* By Arcane (known as Arcane 21 on Wikimedia websites) */ /* Add these lines at the end of monobook_modified.css file in the styles/css folder of the Monaco skin */

.toolbar { border-top-style: none!important; border-top-width: 1px; padding: 0px 0px !important; }

/* Expandable Sections */ .wikiEditor-ui-toolbar .sections { width: 98%!important; }

Also, the buttons of the Monaco skin don't work properly with the Search and Replace menu, which will cause some display errors with the text not syncing properly with the buttons.

If you want to fix this the quick and dirty way, find the buttons.css file in the styles/css folder of the Monaco and erase everything in the file (don't delete the file itself). This will revert the buttons to use the monobook/vector look and will correct display anomalies in the search and replace menu.

Alternatively, you could hunt down the css file setting governing the button and text size and retain the Monaco button look, but the above is quick and dirty fix that I've tested on my own localhost wiki and it works fine for me.

I'd add this to the repository for Orain, but I suck at using Github, so please forward this information to your tech staff if need be.

Let me know if you guys need any further help. Arcane (talk) 00:01, 19 August 2013 (UTC)Arcane
 * The Monaco theme is supposed to have the button look to keep things consistent. --24.178.138.107 00:33, 19 August 2013 (UTC)
 * I'd like to add (in response to the above comment) that while the Monaco skin will lack most of the large rounded buttons if you use my quick and dirty fix, all other elements of the skin should function normally and look fine (just with the classic Vector/Monobook dull squared appearance). If you still want to keep the Monaco buttons as they are, the text height of the button text needs to have a lowered pixel value (the default is too high) to work properly with the Search And Replace box added by the WikiEditor extension. I don't remember what exact value needs to be changed, but that will need to be fixed if you want to keep the Monaco button schema as it originally was. Arcane (talk) 00:54, 19 August 2013 (UTC)Arcane
 * Wanted to add something: I noticed your Monaco skin sidebar doesn't have all the options available on the other skin sidebars. If you want to fix this, you just need to add the appropriate information to MediaWiki:Monaco-sidebar. I don't have administrator rights, or I would be willing to do the legwork myself. If not, I just thought this information would be of use to you. Arcane (talk) 01:18, 20 August 2013 (UTC)Arcane


 * I goofed and posted this on Timeshifter's page when I should have posted it to yours:


 * The Monaco skin used on Orain is the same port created by Dantman from Wikia, and it has some issues with WikiEditor. I have written a page on my wiki detailing these issues and fixes that can be implemented to solve several CSS errors and edit window issues, which can be found here.


 * I have also released my own modified fork of Monaco that corrects many of the problems with Monaco, but has the buttons default to the Monobook/Vector look as opposed to using the buttons the original port had used from Wikia.


 * You can find it here:


 * https://github.com/Arcane21/monaco-port


 * I'm still a novice at using Github, so I not sure I am competent enough to add these changes to the Orain core, but you may wish to look over this information and see if the rest of the more technically competent members of the Orain staff would either like to use my fixes for the Monaco port or use my modified version on Orain, as either would fix any issues with using the WikiEditor extension.


 * I would recommend the changes (if any) be implemented globally. They will not affect any wiki where WikiEditor is not installed, as the fixes are mostly CSS tweaks to fix issues with that extension, should it ever be installed on any wiki.

 * The above message in italics was meant for you or the rest of the Orain staff to look over when you got back (before I forget, welcome back ^_^), and I seriously implore you and the rest of the Orain staff to either use my modified port of the Monaco skin, or the notes on fixing the Monaco skin here, since even when not using the Wiki Editor, there are display errors, as you can see in this screenshot. The display problems are visible on all Orain wikis using the Monaco skin, and the fixes I have linked to can be quickly implemented with a few edits and should solve all issues with the Monaco skin.

Just something I thought would be useful, check on my wiki from time to time if you agree
I plan to find as many gadgets and user scripts that would be helpful to MediaWiki users and add pages on them as well as enable them so they can be used and tested in a live environment (i.e. - my testing wiki).

As far as Orain is concerned, that means that anything you see on the MediaWiki Gadgets page on my wiki has been proven, tested, and will come with technical information about any bugs, glitches, or settings needed for optimal use, and has been verified as functional on both my offsite localhost testing wiki and here on Orain.

I also plan to add a section for user scripts (which includes javascript snippets, CSS style sheets, etc.) with a similar purpose.

Unlike the Test Wiki, I plan to also include live testing areas for extensions not included on the Test Wiki, and since I like testing bleeding edge code and invite anyone to share their contributions, I would be delighted to offer my wiki as a testbed for bleeding edge Orain specific extensions, custom skins, and so on if the need arises.

Also, while I imported Twinkle from Wikipedia to Orain Meta, I don't believe it is functional, and though I have yet to do any extensive testing on it, I'll give you a heads up if I get it to work. Arcane (talk) 02:42, 25 August 2013 (UTC)Arcane
 * Did some checking, and Twinkle would need to be custom ported for use on another wiki as further detailed here. I had trouble cloning how it was done on Wikipedia verbatim, and it might be better to make our own version of the gadget or something similar. I have an idea or two about how to do this, will get back to you once I have something workable. Arcane (talk) 11:32, 25 August 2013 (UTC)Arcane

You have been granted admin/'crat on BotWiki
Hi Dusti, as per my original request, I have now granted you Administrator and Bureaucrat rights on BotWiki. I hope that the BotWiki will eventually become "the place to be" for anything to do with running bots on Orain wikis, whether on a local wiki or globally. <font color="#000" face="Times">Augur <font color="#33f" family="Arial">NZ <font color="#000" size="4">&#x2710; <font size="4" color="#000">&#x2315; 00:59, 29 August 2013 (UTC)

How would I transclude the Orain wiki logo on my wiki
I wanted to include a small picture of the Orain Meta wiki logo on the tab I have on my front page for "Sister Wikis" (wikis that are cooperating in conjunction with my own in some way), but I'm not able to transclude the Orain.png file correctly.

Wiki made private
Hello Dusti, thanks for creating the SACwiki on my request. Could you please clarify something for me – what does exactly 'private' mean for a wiki here, 'personal' and 'public' being the other two options? When I requested for the SACwiki to be created, I hoped that only those I authorize would be able not only to edit it, but also to view it. However, this newly created wiki can apparently be both edited and viewed by strangers. Is there a way on orain.org to create a wiki with limited editing and viewing access? Regards, --SAC SEC (talk) 17:15, 31 August 2013 (UTC)
 * Hello! We're actually working on that now :) <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!* 20:15, 31 August 2013 (EDT)
 * Alrighty - I believe we've gotten it fixed and taken care of. You now have to be logged in and have the "member" right to view pages. Bureaucrats and Administrators are able to grant and revoke that right. Creating an account is not restricted, as we use single sign on, however, the read restriction is what's made your wiki private. <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!* 21:00, 31 August 2013 (EDT)
 * Thanks. I think we are experiencing a problem creating new users at the moment, so I cannot have a test run to see if the restrictions work the way they're supposed to. Regards, --SAC SEC (talk) 22:47, 31 August 2013 (EDT)
 * I've tested the restrictions myself, and they appear to be solid. What issue are you have with creating accounts? I just created one to ensure that account creation is still working. <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!* 23:51, 31 August 2013 (EDT)
 * Random assigning of passwords returns an error message, blaming a PHP glitch, for one thing. Also, I created three test users: SAC01, 01SAC, and SACmem01, and even though they show up as created, none of them can be logged in, with an error message: "Login error. There is no user by the name "SACmem01". Usernames are case sensitive. Check your spelling."  Regards, --SAC SEC (talk) 00:58, 1 September 2013 (EDT)
 * UPDATE: Trying to log in with any of these three user names on meta.orain.org returns an error "Incorrect password" and, when trying to reset the password, reports: "The username SACmem01 is not registered on this wiki, but it does exist in the unified login system." That's what it's up to now. Regards, --SAC SEC (talk) 01:10, 1 September 2013 (EDT)
 * I believe Kudu has taken a look into this and the issue appears to be fixed. I had it happen to me when trying to create an account while logged in. I just tried and had to attempt to do it twice as my session expired and I needed to log back in, however, I was able to create an account and have a random password sent by email on both here and SACwiki. <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!* 19:24, 1 September 2013 (EDT)
 * Thank you, it seems to be working fine now. Could you please delete all those test users, including those created by me (SAC01, 01SAC, and SACmem01)? Regards, --SAC SEC (talk) 23:37, 1 September 2013 (EDT)
 * Because of Mediawiki(Software runs this wiki) doesn't provide account delete, anyone cannot delete account. 레비 ReviDiscuss WMF wikis 02:20, 2 September 2013 (EDT)

All right. Can we change their names then? --SAC SEC (talk) 02:34, 2 September 2013 (EDT)

Help for extensions and administartion rights
Dear Dusti.

Thank you for aprooving the wiki pateres.orain.org

I have some questions and if you do not mind, please answer me.

1) I need for the wiki to control, create users and gives rights to users to edit or view pages. maybe i need an account as administrator?

2) I have already a nearly similar wiki in the address http://gymnasioker4.referata.com

which works using the list of the extensions that are presented to this link (http://www.referata.com/wiki/Special:Version)

may i ask you which of them you can install for me? (do not yet install them, just tell me which you can, i will inform you when to do that)

This would be really helpfull in order to know how to build the wiki in orain.

Thank you

 * The blank PigaLore is not that useful to me yet, as I would like to merge in old data from this host http://pigasoftware.a.wiki-site.com/. From there I can get myself back up and running.
 * You can use Special:Import to import all of your old content.


 * I have however begun setting up the MWM Wiki, but lack file upload ability - why is this so? Also, I would like to know what file types you are set up to accept. On Tropical Wikis I had it arranged so I could upload JPEG, PNG, GIF, SVG, MIDI, Ogg Vorbis and FLAC, and would really like to have this ability on my new wiki.
 * I've enabled upload


 * Finally, I am wondering if you can create a way to link between my wikis as I also had on Tropical Wikis? E.g. something like piga:Article or mwm:Article.

Recent Orain Updates
Greetings all,

A lot has happened quite recently (I mean a lot), for those not actively involved in our IRC channel (#orain on freenode), here is a brief update of what has happened recently.


 * Upgrades
 * Orain updated to the latest stable release of MediaWiki, 1.23.
 * All extensions which have updates for 1.23 have also been updated.
 * We've moved over to MediaWiki 1.23's json style for i18n.
 * Downtimes
 * We have experienced a few downtimes over the past month. These include service failures (10 minutes in total), upgrade issues (5 minutes total) and issues with our host (15 hours).
 * We have looked into all downtimes and put into place methods we can use to prevent these reoccurring again.
 * New Stuff
 * After a few downtimes, we introduced Nagios to our infrastructure. Nagios can be viewed by any user on prod1.
 * We also introduced an IRC RC bot. All RC feeds on public Orain wikis are now sent to #Orain-feed on JDNet (irc.jasperswebsite.com). Users can join the channel manually as well as introducing bots to the channel.
 * We now have a twitter account! Follow us

We know the past two months have been rough with a few matters which have been occurring internally with our staff but we are working to resolve all issues which we are aware of as soon as possible. I thank you for your patience and I hope we can continue to work together to build an awesome wiki farm! Also, Orain will be 1 year old on July 12th 2014.

Thanks, on behalf of all Orain staff, John (talk) 21:21, 12 June 2014 (BST)

This message was sent using Orain's mass messaging system. If you have a concern regarding this message, please alert the steward team at the stewards' noticeboard.

Orain Site Update #1
This can be called the official first monthly site update hence the #1 so; let's get on to what has happened during the month of July!

During July, Orain added two new servers to the cluster, there were two incidents and one long term fix.
 * Technical
 * prod5 was added as an additional webserver which we plan to use to help distribute the load of web requests and as a fail-over so if prod4 fails, we can continue to provide you all with your wikis.
 * prod6 was added and is still in the setting up stage. It is planned to take over the role of prod1, a server we are planning to decommission eventually.
 * We had a small security issue regarding ElasticSearch on our prod3 server. No unauthorized access to the data stored on the server was seen and the server has since been made more secure. As a security precaution, ElasticSearch was removed from the cluster and wikis were defaulted back to MediaWiki search.
 * From July 30th to August 1st; there were issues with out going MediaWiki mail. This has since been resolved however incoming mail to all @orain.org addresses are still not functioning as of August 3rd.
 * A long-term issue with images was resolved on July 15th.


 * New Features
 * A wikicreator group was added to metawiki so community users can handle new wiki requests which is one step into delegating new roles and responsibilities to the community. Wikicreators are chosen by system administrators using their discretion.
 * Cyberpower678's tool was given access to some database tables on public wikis. As a result the UserAnalysis tool works on all public Orain wikis.
 * UrlShortener was enabled on all Orain wikis to allow shorter URLs to be used. Currently URLs follow the form of 'https://$database.orain.org/o/$id'. If wikis want to use a shorten URL of their choice; please make a request to the system administrators.
 * Private wikis may now (on request) use image authorization for their wikis. This means images are made web-inaccessible as to preserve the security of images uploads while still being accessed by users with 'read' access to your wiki.
 * Orain now allows the use of OAuth. Please see the OAuth page on MediaWiki for more details. OAuth requests can be made on any wiki and will be approved by a system administrator on metawiki.
