Revision as of 21:45, December 4, 2010
Feel free to post questions or proposals here, although I'll probably read and respond faster if they're posted on the forum. Please note: I clear this page frequently.
Videos
You might want to have a look at this. Also, exactly how do we know what rules to follow? What I'm trying to say is, what are the standards here? Are there any official page where there are the rules to this wiki? Here is BP's site. ht14 (talk) 19:32, 21 November 2010 (EST)
- Videos are just <youtube>part after v=</youtube>. And you have a good point. I will start a rough copy in my sandbox. Super (duh...)Alpaca 19:42, 21 November 2010 (EST)
- We're currently working on writing up the rules. I know it's a bit late, but we wanted to take our time to ensure they are perfect for our community. They'll be up as soon as possible. --Jake 20:11, 21 November 2010 (EST)
- User:SuperAlpaca/Sandbox is the location for the BP thingy linked to earlier. For now, it is just a copy. Jake, you can edit it as you wish. Super (duh...)Alpaca 20:16, 21 November 2010 (EST)
In response to the original question about videos, I'll make it my priority to fix that page. It seems video tags were broken during the merger. --Jake 20:17, 21 November 2010 (EST)
New user message
This bot isn't quite working properly. It is giving the second parameter blank, which causes no username to appear (I'm not quite sure why that parameter is even needed). Even simpler, BASEPAGENAME could be used in the template so that no parameters are necessary at all. --SnorlaxMonster 03:27, 22 November 2010 (EST)
- Thanks for letting me know. The first parameter is automatically filled with the username of the newly registered user, and the second one is filled with the user's name. (If supplied during registration.) I was trying to create a switch to display the name is available, otherwise default to the username. Since it isn't working, I'll just switch it back to the first parameter only. --Jake 15:19, 22 November 2010 (EST)
Regarding ads
Any possibility to get rid of ads for logged-in users? ht14 (talk) 00:26, 29 November 2010 (EST)
- Ads strongly support our site financially. I've tried to make the ads as scarce as possible by having them appear only on articles and categories. If you are seeing inappropriate ads, I can have them blocked. But is there any particular reason that you need ads disabled for your account? (Other than the fact that they are somewhat annoying.) --Jake 15:07, 29 November 2010 (EST)
Forum Password
Hi Jake! :) I've forgotten my password and de-activated the email I used for registering so could you please change my email to matthewtelee@gmail.com. Thank you!!! Leem01 11:02, 30 November 2010 (EST) (Hopes you see this)
- On a related noted, the forum wouldn't accept my password after the switch, so I had to do the forgotten password thing to log in. I'm fine now, I just wanted to alert you to the problem.-Vulpes 11:35, 30 November 2010 (EST)
- I've changed your email as requested leem. Sorry to hear about the login problems guys. I know that forum passwords should have been converted, but if they aren't working then the converter must have screwed something up. I'll see if there's any mention of this on the IPS site. --Jake 15:04, 30 November 2010 (EST)
Adjustment suggestion for MainPageLogo
Hi Jake - I couldn't help but notice that the logo you uploaded, File:MainPageLogo.png, contained the Wikipedia logo on it. I think it would be best and would make the most sense if the Wikipedia logo was not included in the image. Wikipedia is Wikipedia, and to place it on the logo of Animal Crossing Wiki really doesn't make sense. They're two different things. It'd be like putting the Pepsi logo on a Coke bottle. Thanks, ~SuperHamster Talk 23:08, 1 December 2010 (EST)
- I didn't design the logo, so it's not possible for me to make any changes to it. If a better logo is uploaded and it passes a vote, then we can replace it. --Jake 23:13, 1 December 2010 (EST)
What can I help with?
Hi Jake, I'm Kumatora and I was wondering what can I help with? I just can't think of anything to write on. Please get back to me, thanks!--Kumatora 18:08, 3 December 2010 (EST)Kumatora
- Sure, I'll post a message on your user page to list some things. :) --Jake 22:03, 3 December 2010 (EST)
Issue
The template Template:BugInfoWW, the {{{PAGENAME}}} thing does not work. Did I do it wrong, or is it not something that works here? Super (duh...)Alpaca 16:51, 4 December 2010 (EST)
- It should work here, as it's a MediaWiki defined template. You must be using it wrong. --Jake 16:53, 4 December 2010 (EST)
Mass upload
Is there a way to get multiple images uploaded quickly? I am going to need it now that the bug template is working. Super (duh...)Alpaca 16:59, 4 December 2010 (EST)
- There's an extension that allows you to upload five images at a time. Is that acceptable? --Jake 17:03, 4 December 2010 (EST)
It only uploaded the first one on the list... And what are the dot things for? Super (duh...)Alpaca 17:32, 4 December 2010 (EST)
- I have no idea, as I've never used it before. Try experimenting. Maybe you have to click the dot next to each selector before choosing an image? --Jake 17:45, 4 December 2010 (EST)
Upload policy
I read it, and it looks good. The only thing is, it is not fair to limit the personal images without another way to have them displayed. I had images from PhotoBucket, but none of the links work. So, we need to have an external source that allows images to be displayed here. Super (duh...)Alpaca 20:33, 4 December 2010 (EST)
- I've just enabled the use images from external sources. All you have to do is post the URL. Thanks for the reminder SA! --Jake 20:44, 4 December 2010 (EST)
Question regarding scripts
Hi Jake - I've got a question. On Wikipedia, we are able to run scripts by placing a script code on, for example, User:SuperHamster/scipt.js, and then importing the script to User:SuperHamster/vector.js for it to function. I was wondering if you know if this works here?
In addition, if I were to run a script that would automatically tag all character images with the proper licenses, would that be all right? Thanks, ~SuperHamster Talk 20:45, 4 December 2010 (EST)
