I would like to recover the wiki "https://fablac.miraheze.org/wiki/Accueil"
Good morning,

I am contacting you because I will wish to recover the wiki of our school. It's called "fablac". We are very disappointed not to find him again.

Thanks in advance. Have a beautiful day, Sophie
 * Hello and welcome! I am not a Steward, but I think your request would carry more weight if you were a registered user.  Please pick a username!   22:23 20-Mar-2019

How do i add a Infobox? i Know Barely anything about Coding on Wikis sadly.
Hi, i'm New here as i Moved from Wikia's Mass-Ad Festival to here which seems cleaner. Only Issue i have right now is Adding Infoboxes to my Wiki.
 * Hello and welcome! Please read FAQ.  (Better yet, read the entire page!)  Take care when importing code, because sometimes a template relies on other templates and you need to import them all.  You're right that it's "cleaner" to edit here than at Wikia, where they are always breaking stuff.  Templates are somewhat like subroutines in a programming language, and unfortunately, it will require learning about them, because even if you get them to work, you'll find you want to tweak them.   13:48 23-Mar-2019

How do I get to the Special:ManageWiki to uncheck the "closed" box to reopen it
My wiki was closed for dormancy - and I would like to re-open it, but I don't know how to get to the Special:ManageWiki page to uncheck the "closed" box. DebyJolley
 * Surfing to the page  (making an appropriate substitution for  ) should get you there, though I do not know if other problems will prevent you from completing the operation.   03:45 2-May-2019

Thank you, Spike!!

Hello, Special:CentralAuth/Pelle_95 is a temporary account of Special:CentralAuth/IPelle created in order to inherit its edits etc. so please merge the former in the latter. Thanks.--Wedhro (talk) 17:29, 17 June 2019 (UTC)

Hi
Can I create an alternative account? Now I lost the password of LegoMaster again, and since the account will and might not be used again, I have removed the email address on it. Can I create an alternative account Fung ster (contribs - email - CA) 06:07, 20 June 2019 (UTC)
 * You can create multiple accounts if you wish, as having multiple accounts itself is allowed on Miraheze (as a whole). However, I don't get your point what you are asking us for. If you don't use the account LegoMaster, you can leave it alone (even if you forgot the password).-- 10:04, 21 June 2019 (UTC)
 * If the use of multiple accounts are allowed, so how can Lawrence-Prairies be locked for using multiple accounts Fung ster (contribs - email - CA) 14:17, 21 June 2019 (UTC)
 * Because they use the multiple accounts to abuse/violate policies on MH Zppix (Meta &#124; CVT Member &#124; talk to me) 14:34, 21 June 2019 (UTC)

Changing my username
Hi, I was wondering if the username of my account (Special:CentralAuth/Insesistente) could be changed to 'Inesistente'. Thanks in advance Insesistente (talk) 09:52, 22 June 2019 (UTC)
 * Please use Special:GlobalRenameRequest. ——Fung ster (contribs - email - CA) 11:40, 22 June 2019 (UTC)

How can I see the progress of my new wiki?
Last night I requested a new wiki:MX Linux users en and it was created but only wiith the subdomain:mxlinuxusersen.miraheze.org. But I wanted it to be accessed by wiki.mxlinuxusers.org. Therefore I registered the domain, created the subdomain and point it to your site. I did also a request on Phabricator for a Let's encript certificate. So I ask: Is there a possibility to see the progress over all steps? --Peter Littmann (talk) 04:27, 23 June 2019 (UTC)
 * You can set up your notifications on phab from your setting page there, that will allow you to recieve e-mail notification of the progress of phab tasks. In addition, your phab ticket (in this case, which is T4486) page will note every related progress and comments.-- 05:46, 23 June 2019 (UTC)
 * So it hangs only at phab and Let's encript now? Do they work on sundays? Whats about the link from...
 * We are all volunteers, and if our tech staffs are active, they may work on Sundays as well. The link above shows the phab ticket page of your request.-- 06:45, 23 June 2019 (UTC)
 * ...my subdomain(I forward it to mw-lb.miraheze.org) to my Miraheze subdomain? There is also something to do or not? --Peter Littmann (talk) 06:51, 23 June 2019 (UTC)
 * After the setup is done, mxlinuxusersen.miraheze.org will be redirected to wiki.mxlinuxusers.org. I think you've already followed our guidelines on custom domains, but if not, please follow the process written there.-- 06:56, 23 June 2019 (UTC)
 * I think so, its not that difficult to understand. I like to update the german translation now to follow the english one which is most actual and accurat I think. --Peter Littmann (talk) 07:14, 23 June 2019 (UTC)

State of my new wiki: MX Linux users en?
What happens here? Should I worry me? Or is this normal at this state? The creation was not noted in the Farmer Log and I am only a user and not a bureaucrat so no chance to change something. --Peter Littmann (talk) 12:23, 23 June 2019 (UTC)
 * ✅ -- Void  Whispers 17:18, 23 June 2019 (UTC)

Request for exemption from the dormancy policy
Hello, we are currently working on our wiki "IKgroßeGruppenWiki" and I want to ask if our wiki could be exempted from the dormancy policy. We're gathering a pool of didactic methods that can be used in library courses. The wiki will be open for our community to add new methods but it will most likely be used primarily as a research-platform. So we can't guarantee that there will be enough changes and contributions within 60 days to prevent it from being deleted. We are very grateful for your great service! IKGroßeGruppenWiki (talk) 09:07, 25 June 2019 (UTC)
 * ✅ Now exempted.-- 11:09, 26 June 2019 (UTC)

Please enable Interwiki for MX Linux users
I am the founder of the german MX Linux users de wiki and also the english MX Linux users en wiki. Now I like to request Interwiki enabled so that we can use the links under languages in the sidebar and hopefully placing pagename when stated on a german page also works like on the german wikipedia articles. --Peter Littmann (talk) 03:20, 26 June 2019 (UTC)
 * ✅ en and de added.-- 11:09, 26 June 2019 (UTC)

Delete our wiki
I have already sent a request to delete a site to which there was no response. Stewards' noticeboard/Archive 9 But for some reason you moved my request to the archive. I repeat it again.

Please completely delete the unfinished site http://absurdopedia.miraheze.org, since it was created when the Absurdopedia's community on Wikia was looking for a place to move. None of the authors of the Absurdopedia will rule there. We have already created a site https://absurdopedia.wiki on an independent hosting, --Тэйтанка (talk) 19:12, 17 March 2019 (UTC) --Тэйтанка (talk) 13:51, 29 June 2019 (UTC)

Making The Notice A Global Notice
Can you make the global notice "There is currently a Request for Comment about changes to the Content Policy." ? Fung ster (contribs - email - CA) 12:21, 30 June 2019 (UTC)
 * I think it's handled by technical staffs.-- 13:35, 30 June 2019 (UTC)
 * Then email the tech staff! --Fung ster (contribs - email - CA) 13:38, 30 June 2019 (UTC)
 * Please calm down. Our activities are all done on a voluntary basis, and I would not want to see anyone asking us to take actions using an imperative form like this. We're not forced to do anything.-- 13:49, 30 June 2019 (UTC)

About a Recent Global Lock
A few hours ago, my main account, Marseillaise, was globally locked due to "cross-wiki abuse". (This was an account I had made for testing at the Public Test Wiki.) I know I have been disruptive here at Meta, and I can understand being blocked here, even indefinitely. However, I was not disruptive at any other wikis on the Miraheze network. I mostly tested at the Public Test Wiki, with occasional edits at a few other wikis. I would really like to have my Marseillaise account unlocked so I can continue testing on the test wiki, and I won't be disruptive any more. Thank you. Legend (talk) 00:21, 1 July 2019 (UTC)
 * I found out that you have been vandalizing our wikis mainly as an anonymous IP user. It's an obvious case of cross-wiki abuse, and thus dealt as so.-- 14:55, 1 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Please also lock this account as a sockpuppet. - PlavorSeol (T | C) 06:23, 2 July 2019 (UTC)
 * It's already been locked by Zppix.-- 14:25, 2 July 2019 (UTC)
