Forward from SEU[edit]

I would like a few extra user rights groups. Namely, SkipCaptcha, Autopatrol, and Sysop-lite (Sysop minus Block). The last one may be impossible to do, and if so, okay. But I appreciate it if it was possible, to create a more plesant editing experience. Thanks.--Colonel Sanders 23:05, 20 August 2011 (UTC)

Backup[edit]

Came a question in Desciclopédia: Forum:Backup da desciclopédia: Exists data backups of Desciclopédia, and how often?

You were searching for http://download.uncyc.org ? I think it's updated monthly | CartoonistHenning (talk) 12:34, 22 August 2011 (UTC)
Yes! That is! But, just to confirm: If for example a disaster occurs today to Desciclopédia datas, we can recover the datas from 8-Aug-2011, right? Alhazred (talk) 12:53, 22 August 2011 (UTC)

This a returning problem. Can't you set $wgSitename permanently to UnMeta? Does LocalSettings constantly reset to a previous version? CartoonistHenning (talk) 20:05, 31 August 2011 (UTC)

Clean URLs cause Uploads to fail[edit]

Hi Carl,

I've just started a new wiki for the Illogicomedia Foundation. All is well with the site except for my edits to .htaccess and LocalSettings.php to clean the addresses up. Basically, the clean urls work, but when they're activated they prevent file uploads. Commenting out the changes to LocalSettings fixes the problem, but loses the clean urls.

I've read a bunch of advice sites but haven't found this problem fixed. Can you help, or point me to a good resource? Thanks. ~ The Bard (talk) 08:14, 3 September 2011 (UTC)

Never mind. Solved it myself. =) ~ The Bard (talk) 19:59, 3 September 2011 (UTC)

Edit Count[edit]

Can you point me to the working Edit Count extension that you've installed all over the place? I can't find any trace of the Peterson version, and the mw-editcount one hosted on MediaWiki (that supports the #ec: function) is badly of date, and the Special page function doesn't work. ~ The Bard (talk) 23:06, 7 September 2011 (UTC)

The last mention of Benjamin Patersen is here. The version of the extension I have appears not to work with MediaWiki 1.19 (it's still valid for MediaWiki 1.17) and the same limitation applies for "logcount" as a modification of this extension. There have been no updates since 2009-07-17 although the code is still on SourceForge at the address indicated in mw:extension:MW-EditCount. Disappointing that someone would claim to be "maintainer" of this extension, fail to do anything, but stick his name in place of the author's to take credit? --03:33, 8 September 2011 (UTC)
Hi Carl. Thanks for replying. Disappointing indeed, but also confusing because I'm already running the hijacked "Fahad Sadah" release. Your version seems to work perfectly even though you're running 1.17 alpha, and yet I've only had partial function with with 1.16.5 and 1.17. Specifically, the Special:EditCount fails at line 164. Have you made any fixes to the code to account for changes in MW over the past 3 years? ~ The Bard (talk) 04:55, 8 September 2011 (UTC)
EditCount.zip is the version I have; I recall a few extensions having to be changed to add "return true;" due to MediaWiki 1.14 but not sure if this one was affected. I know it won't run at all in MW 1.19 (stops with a blank page, error 500, and "PHP Fatal error" in the log) but is still alive in 1.17alpha. A few other extensions (such as <css> as a tag, not a parser function) also break in MW 1.19 --Carlb (talk) 06:33, 8 September 2011 (UTC)
Is this the reason why I can't access Niesiklopedia? EditCount has always been a detail for me, but it's still a damn nice tool. A probable reason why developers (developers, developers!) don't want to update their extensions, is something like [quoting fictional phone conversation] "!#%@& why can't you just stick to m*thaf*ckin 1.17 !#%@&" | CartoonistHenning (talk) 13:25, 8 September 2011 (UTC)
EditCount, LogCount and a few others (see full list on Report a problem#MediaWiki_1.19_extensions) are not available on niesiklopedia.org (af:) or the other MW 1.19 wikis at the moment (most of these, as new languages, appear to be one-page domains or empty, with the possible exception of mwl: at 46 pages). These extensions were removed from the MW 1.19 wikis a month ago as they were breaking things (but are still on the MW 1.17alpha wikis here). The problem is that the extension authors are often not among MediaWiki's authors and may not still be active on the project to deal with a so-called "upgrade" that breaks things. --Carlb (talk) 13:54, 8 September 2011 (UTC)

New extensions[edit]

Hello, Carl. I’m very glad that you have installed those 4 extensions. But a couple of them don’t work:

  • AbuseFilter — when I turn it on, it doesn’t allow to save pages anymore. Instead of it I get blanked page;
  • DeleteBatch — doesn’t work too. When I click to «Delete» on Special:DeleteBatch, it redirects me to editing of page named «Object» (!)

Could you please check them? Thanks. --This user is administrator of Ukrainian Uncyclopedia. Vox 22:54, 14 September 2011 (UTC)

New domain for Desgalipedia (desgalipedia.gal)[edit]

[1] for great justice!
  • ICANN, the international body that governs the directions of the Internet, announced Friday the approval of the application domain. Gal that will serve the linguistic and cultural community of Galicia.

The president of the Association PuntoGal, Manuel González González, will present the details of this historic success achieved thanks to the unanimous support of all the Galician society on Saturday at a press conference.

In a way, it would be interesting to have this domain desgalipedia beyond .org. I await a response. Rhubella selo-02.pngRhubella Marie, the rat sockpreppie 2,919 preppieditsRhubella selo-01.png 00:10, 15 June 2013 (UTC)

It looks like .gal as a top-level domain is approved but isn't live yet. That said, there's nothing preventing you from registering names yourself when they become available and pointing them at the existing server (as oncyclopedia.net and illogicopedia.org have already done).

Is appearing somethings as "?UNIQ428cf9b412407950-choose-00000000-QINU?" on Malucopedia, you can see it in the Main Page. Can you fix it? 189.81.128.248 17:23, 11 August 2013 (UTC)


Please[edit]

could add "require_once("$IP/extensions/Countdown/Countdown.php");" (without the quotes) in the LocalSettingsphp of Wikimerda??

Don't know if you got this message so[edit]

I'm putting it here.

I'm afraid the bugs have got me rather annoyed so I apologise if you should find me making less than civil comments...but anyway, thought you should know about that bit above. Llwy-ar-lawr (talk) 23:58, 12 March 2014 (UTC)

The wikis are all available for download at http://download.uncyc.org if you want to fork a version somewhere else. Wikimedia and even Wikia also let you download a copy of their stuff; it's just Wikitravel and a few independent Uncycs which do not. Carlb (talk) 00:01, 13 March 2014 (UTC)
Thanks, good to know. Llwy-ar-lawr (talk) 01:33, 13 March 2014 (UTC)
But...I don't want to fork it, I want to move it. Would you be willing to take down your version and/or redirect it to the new one, like you did with illogicopedia, or is that not acceptable? Llwy-ar-lawr (talk) 01:43, 13 March 2014 (UTC)
That depends if anyone currently on it wants to stay on it. Carlb (talk) 01:52, 13 March 2014 (UTC)
Well in that case I'll leave everything as is. There's no currently active community - I'll be sending emails to the formerly active users, and if they don't want to move, that's fine, nothing happens, but if they don't say no I'll set up a fork and expect you to redirect your copy to mine. Sound good? Llwy-ar-lawr (talk) 20:15, 13 March 2014 (UTC)

Spambots[edit]

Just a tip: protect a page when a spambot created that page, so he can't create it again. Tiz (talk) 11:57, 13 April 2014 (UTC)

Minor technical problems in Hikipedia[edit]

Greetings, Our Fearless Deus Otiosus! I am an admin in Hikipedia. I'd like to draw your attention to 2–3 technical problems we have. These have all consistently failed to work with me, and others confirm them all.

  1. The special page for browsing deleted contributions by user – I don't know what the page is named in English – doesn't work. Me and a fellow admin both get just a wholly white, blank screen before us.
  2. Same with Special:HideRevision and Special:Oversight.
  3. Also, captchas seem not to work at all.

As these are not very urgent (especially #3, heh heh), I'm not asking you to fix them right away or anything. But suppose you'd update our MediaWiki (you've done that, right? I'm new.), please take these into account. --Discipline (talk) 22:45, 7 June 2014 (UTC)

P.S. Out of curiosity, what exactly is this? I'm sensationally bad in all things zip. Can you download whole wikis and their image stores there?!

Spambots mass merge and deletion[edit]

Hi Carl, I wanted to ask your opinion on installation of some extension that would allow mass merge and deletion of spambot accounts. I found this BlockAndNuke extension and, from my understanding, using it in relation with UserMerge (which we have already) could let us merge and delete these accounts efficiently (since we, apparently, cannot stop their creation). That seems to be a good option as it would be wonderful to be able to delete all these spambots at once. Do you think there is use to installation and use of BlockAndNuke? --This user is administrator of Ukrainian Uncyclopedia. Vox 03:57, 22 June 2015 (UTC)

Stability issue in Traditional Chinese Uncyclopedia[edit]

I am Rewlf2, an ex-sysop from Traditional Chinese Uncyclopedia. I tried to add an article with about 10k byte size recently into the wiki and since the progress collided with memory flushing, it caused a system downtime of several hours in the wiki. I think the cause of long downtime is the low memory of the site (512MB) making the wiki thrash. Could you check if this wiki can increase its "Shared memory" by editing the LocalSettings.php for me? Many thanks. Rewlf2 (talk) 10:15, 11 August 2016 (UTC)

Any chance the issues were temporary and appeared because the XML backups were being generated at that time?

I see. I observed the wiki for a while and it seems to function well after XML backup generation. I made some edits recently and nothing bad showed up. I guess XML backup generation would take up much resource and caused site to stop responding for a while. Thank you. Rewlf2 (talk) 04:07, 14 August 2016 (UTC)

Halloween[edit]

Since it's Halloween, may I ask if/when Uncyc wikis will have scripts in Lua? Cthulhu.fhtagn (talk) 23:48, 31 October 2016 (UTC)

What does Halloween have to do with anything? One or more of the servers don't meet mw:Extension:Scribunto#Requirements due to compatibility issues. Carlb (talk) 01:43, 1 November 2016 (UTC)
Lua means Moon in Portuguese, that was the point of the joke. Lua, Moon, Witches, Halloween... Got it? It's a pity that support to Flash was disabled (due to virus issues), with nothing else to replace to add some animations to the pages. Cthulhu.fhtagn (talk) 15:46, 2 November 2016 (UTC)

Some affairs about Traditional Chinese Uncyclopedia[edit]

I am Abcabc2, an administrator of Traditional Chinese Uncyclopedia. I want to confirm that whether this page has been abandoned without posting warning messages for users and removing the link from the sidebar, and please tell me where to post new requests.

Also, the removal of mw:Extension:Titleblacklist cause continuous vandalisms from April to July 2016, can you explain why it is removed?

Besides, the conversion between Chinese and English namespace becomes a mess (especially "圖像" and "檔案"), can you try to fix it? --Abcabc2 (talk) 12:35, 3 January 2017 (UTC)

The page is not abandoned, what happens is that the last problems were referring to server crashes and have been directly requested by email. New requests can be made on the page quoted or directly here or by Carlb's email.

Extension request for Pekepedia[edit]

Thought I'd ask if you could install a number of extensions on the site, particularly DeletePagesForGood and most especially DeleteBatch, as there has been a rash of spam pages on the site in need of deletion, and yet Javascript-based hacks like those on Wikia don't seem to load properly.

He was informed by email. Of the initial requirements, only the removal of administrative powers to my sock account (MarceloRenard2), unfortunately, I do not know the other accounts and I believe that as they created account the system first gave these administrative rights.

The logo and favicon are uploaded as ordinary files, image:Wiki.png and image:Favicon.ico.

Both http://nonciclopedia.org/wiki/File:Wiki.png and http://nonciclopedia.org/wiki/File:Favicon.ico can't be uploaded because (who knows why) they're shared with jpe.gs and I can only edit the summary, not the files themselves.

Usopedia[edit]

Please excuse me but a user wants to make an application to include Usopedia as a Japanese version of Illogicopedia. From what I was informed, there was approval of the project in your community and the same user says that the scope of the site has humor similar to illogicopedias already created.

Hi, and I'm the user who talked to Rhubella Marie on this topic. Actually, it was approved in the English community (and waiting for a BC/sysadmin to work on interwiki links), and am requesting to make it sister wikis each other between other languages, and officially be treated as the Japanese version Illogicopedia (with mutual interwiki links). The wiki is located on Miaheze, like the Polish Uncyclopedia.
I'd also like to have admin/BC permissions on abandoned language versions (fr, nl, no), so that I can maitain the wikis and protect them from vandals. Thanks.--The Pioneer (talk) 13:10, 25 July 2018 (UTC)(modded)--The Pioneer (talk) 13:14, 25 July 2018 (UTC)
The English-language Illogicopedia isn't hosted here; the illogicopedia.org domain belongs to User:Silent Penguin and the site is hosted on en.uncyclopedia.co's server. You'd have to ask there, not here. A few domains were left behind here (on *.illogicopedia.com) when en: moved in 2012-13, but most likely only because the projects were inactive even way back then. I can change Special:Interwiki on those projects, but most of them are rather dead. Carlb (talk) 14:35, 2 August 2018 (UTC)
Well, I know that the English version is hosted on a different server, and am talking about it with Lyrithya (or Athyria on Illogico, and a sysadmin there) about it.

Let me know if you need any further help or clarification, or if it would be easier, upgrade my permissions to interwiki editor! Best, Sean, aka Hoof HeartedWikiIndex Admin / 'Crat / Staffgas2HH 21:29, 27 October 2018 (UTC)

There are no global permissions for "interwiki editor" on this server as each wiki has its own individual userlist and its own interwiki table. Any sysop/admin can edit special:interwiki on their local wiki. That leads to oddities like one Uncyclopedia refusing to link to one of the others for political reasons or interwiki tables which differ significantly from one Uncyclopedia language to another. It may also mean that prefixes like wikipedia: point to the local-language version (so Desciclopédia points to pt:) instead of en.wikipedia.org. Also, the only way I can propagate a change to every Uncyclopedia here at once is at the database level - and even then many of the wikis are not here but on Miraheze.org, on Wikia (which is hopeless as non-staff can't change anything) or hosted independently. Carlb (talk) 23:15, 27 October 2018 (UTC)
I appreciate the technical limitation of no global permission here, but I believe that Wikimedia Foundation have a global interwiki facility - do you know how that is implemented? As for differences between individual language Uncyclopedia wikis, we should naturally fully respect their specific linguistic/political/cultural requirements, and allow for individuality, and even autonomy. In respect of Wikia <spit>, Miraheze, or other hosting provider, it is a given that we here at UnMeta have no right to implement unilateral changes on those. For the Wikipedia issue, that is a slight red herring, as interwiki code allows for manually overriding locally defined language on the same primary domain; to use Desciclopédia as an example (and presuming that wikipedia is their interwiki prefix), if an editor on Desciclopédia wanted to link directly to the English language Wikipedia article on Jimmy Wales, they would type [[en:wikipedia:Jimmy Wales|Jimmy Wales]], and whilst that link would initially open the Jimmy Wales article on Pt wikipedia, it then nigh-on instantly redirects and opens the En wikipedia article.
As to my initial request, being as this is a 'meta' site, it should surely lead by example! :P Regards, Sean, aka Hoof HeartedWikiIndex Admin / 'Crat / Staffgas2HH 13:00, 28 October 2018 (UTC)
No, en:wikipedia:exploding whales wouldn't work on Desciclopédia; en: takes you to en.uncyclopedia.co/wiki/$1 which doesn't have the "local" bit set for wikipedia:. It might be possible to write this the other way, wikipedia:en:exploding whales, and have it work from Desciclopédia? WMF uses a script that updates from wikipedia:meta:Interwiki map once every several months but no editable Special:Interwiki. An "interwiki editor" global permission exists on Miraheze (I think user:The Pioneer had this, although he's probably AWOL now and ryu: is still missing any interlanguage links back to us). Changing UnMeta's special:interwiki table likely doesn't do anything useful, as it doesn't propagate to any other wiki; there's no separate 'global' and 'local' table, everything's local.
I recall Forum:Uncyclodata was proposed when Wikidata launched in 2013, but there seem to be many obstacles to deploying one unified interwiki scheme across Uncyclopedia. Carlb (talk) 17:04, 28 October 2018 (UTC)

Forum:Mediawiki 1.31[edit]

Hello my friend, about this, I must say the two major problem remaining in Desciclopédia is the Search Tool in pesquisa.la and most important the [show][hide] tool provided by div class=NavFrame div class=NavHead, essential to almost all templates of our site

A example: http://desciclopedia.org/wiki/Predefini%C3%A7%C3%A3o:Dead_or_Alive

the template just can't be closed. Any idea about how restore their function? Again, is something about the addOnloadHook, I just don't know where. Everyone will appreciate if you lend a hand in this issue. ABDUL ALHAZRED Salah, Zakāh, Ramadan, Hajj 15:04, 1 December 2018 (UTC)

Question[edit]

In recently, Is it true that you sent a question mail to User:Muttley about the number of accesses in the Japanese Ansaikuropedia? Please tell us the outline as much as possible on this page. Have a nice holiday! Thanks. --Dareka (talk) 14:31, 21 December 2018 (UTC)

The Desciclopédia urgency[edit]

Over the past week, the Desciclopédia's administrator Alhazred has reported problems encountered on his server and due to his delay in attending even a forum topic on a serious problem among Ansaikuropedia users, he was forced to ask CartoonistHenning for help without knowing that he himself is absent for more than a year.

I took advantage of the last days to do some editions in the other sites (Malucopedia, Wikimerda and Wikinet) and according to conversations with the local administrators and analyzing the problems described by Desciclo and using examples in those same wikis I can give a report of the problems in the forum, if it has conditions to appear. Since neither the other topic on vandalism in Psyklopedin and I also had difficulties in blocking a vandal.

PS: Yes, you're really going to ask me if it was true that they asked for help to vandalize the site, and I confirm this somewhat embarrassing to tell you. I can only tell you that I went there to block the vandal but by function of the task than by helping him himself.

Just to make sure[edit]

Hi, I would like you to understand all the users on that forum are thinking about the benefit of the whole Uncycs.

I'm not actually acting as a mere representative of the Japanese fork as well. I've worked to fix the conflicts between the two Polish uncycs (mainly on our global Discord by ZB), have fixed the broken DPL on en.uncyclopedia.co, and made other contributions across many uncycs.

If I were only thinking about the mere benefit of the fork, I wouldn't have done that. As for the forum on Uncyclowikia which you linked, it was you who first kicked Uncyclowikia out of the international relationship, and the deal I proposed was mutually beneficial back then (but not anymore). It wasn't intended as a "disruption", as well as our reorganization plan lead by .co and Miraheze.

You can find on that forum that some users are reporting issue logging in here. Without fixing it, you will add another evidence that your tech support is poor. With all due respect, I have to ask you this:

"Why do you insist on keeping them on your server, even if you can't (or, at least, take a long time to) resolve these reported issues by yourself?"

This is the point which both .co and Miraheze can deal better. And this is why we (.co and Miraheze) would like to reorganize the Uncycs on your server as well as those on Fandom. I think you can understand that all those errors you haven't fixed for years are one of the reasons of the downfall of Uncyclopedias as a whole, and I request you to deal with it (as good and quickly as the other hosters, .co and Miraheze), if you wish to keep them.

Regards,--The Pioneer (talk) 06:26, 1 March 2019 (UTC)

P.S. edits on talk page on UnMeta seems to result in error 524 (though the edit itself will be successfully posted). I would like to have that fixed as well. What we would like to see is whether you are still capable of handling all these problems. If you are, then I can possibly support your side, and if you are not, I will have to work with fellows on .co or Miraheze. Thanks again.--The Pioneer (talk) 06:30, 1 March 2019 (UTC)
Before you launch into another personal attack like the one you spammed across every wiki a month ago, could you please take a look into this issue: Forum:Reorganization of the whole Uncycs#Deadline is near.2C but not even the half of every articles are imported. It seems to affect all the projects which are/were still planning to to Miraheze in this batch (although I didn't check Italian as it is not a publicly-readable wiki, Russian/Olbanian has already left Miraheze for independent hosting and Poland has already left - what's on nonsensopedia.org is a fork and not the main project). At this point, Miraheze isn't a "solution" to whatever perceived problem you have, Miraheze is a problem. Wikia is shutting everything down on Monday, April Fool's Day. That's only half a week away. As they will be merely displaying This wiki is closed instead of saying where the Uncyclopedia communities went, it's imperative that the individual affected wikis display banners now to say where they have moved. The affected communities can't do that if the new wikis aren't imported yet, and the import of anything to Miraheze has slowed to the point where they quite clearly will not be ready in time. At this point, your actions have caused irreparable damage to the project. We only had a month to solve the problems which Wikia created for us; instead of working to advance the interest of the affected communities, you chose to advance your own interest or the interest of a wiki farm which looks incapable of completing the task on time. I could, with a press of a few buttons, bring tolololpedia.org to life right now (as I have grabbed all the data, and have been busy for weeks running damage control) but, if the time needed to get the word out to the community has been squandered, it may well be too late to reach enough users to ensure the new project - wherever it ends up - is a viable community.

SpecialNamespaces[edit]

Hey Carlb, do you have plans to update the Extension:SpecialNamespaces to work in MW 1.31 and later? --Coco 22:15, 1 March 2019

Domains: es, cs, and he[edit]

First of, thank you for pointing the cs and es domains at our servers. The wikis should be up in the next couple of days, and I'm sure the users will greatly appreciate being able to use the correct domains for them now.

Can you also point the he domain, eincyclopedia.org, at our servers, same setup? We've been working with Kakun, a long-term Eincyclopedia bureaucrat, on behalf of their community in order to get the site fully moved over, and just discovered you apparently also have a mirror of it up (and they weren't aware of this either). While this would likely be useful if we weren't going to be hosting the full site, having a second copy in this case is only apt to do more harm than good, so if we could get this resolved, that would be very helpful.

Thanks. -— Athyria 15:57, 24 March 2019 (UTC)

I've changed it on this side, but you will need to change your apache2 configuration files (ServerName he.uncyclopedia.co / ServerAlias eincyclopedia.org / ServerAlias he.eincyclopedia.org ...) and your LetsEncrypt client settings to add the extra domains on your end.

Awesome, thanks! We should have it properly set up sometime tomorrow, then. -— Athyria 02:54, 25 March 2019 (UTC)
I think you need to do the same about the interlink :fr as seen here Rhubella selo-02.pngRhubella Marie, the rat sockpreppie 2,919 preppieditsRhubella selo-01.png 09:50, 27 March 2019 (UTC)
