I have a problem
Can someone look at this? I can not get any further.

What's happening with Labster and the finance pace?
Read up

My avatar doesn't show up whenever I write a comment?
Everyone else's does, though. This must be a bug or something.

I know I tried deleting my avatar and reuploading/changing it again, but it's still blank in the comments.

I hope there is one way to fix it. One way or another...

Special:MobileMenu
Hello everyone,

Is there a way to edit the MobileMenu special page so that when I am on a smartphone, i can have more information than Home and Random Page when accessing the menu ?

When I go on https://zw.fontainebleau-avon.fr/wiki/Sp%C3%A9cial:MobileMenu while connected with an admin user, I have no way to do it.

I tried to have a look on Mediawiki's website but did not understand where to find the information

Thank you for your help

Error when trying to access Main Page for Mashedpotaytoes wiki
Hi there,

I am getting the following error when trying to access the main page of my wiki, Mashedpotaytoes:

"MediaWiki internal error.

Original exception: [d4f17aeb11f7ddfbc43ec026] 2019-11-14 00:40:10: Fatal exception of type "MediaWiki\Storage\NameTableAccessException"

Exception caught inside exception handler.

Set $wgShowExceptionDetails = true; at the bottom of LocalSettings.php to show detailed debugging information."

This arose after setting up domain forwarding through GoDaddy. Could it be related to that?

Thanks! Jake Yeager (talk) 00:45, 14 November 2019 (UTC)
 * Jake Yeager Maybe, I recommend there's an request in Phabricator.
 * I have fixed this by removing the default Main Page as that seemed to be the only way to fix it. We will look further into this. Reception123 (talk) ('C' ) 06:18, 14 November 2019 (UTC)

Define license policie for Miraheze Commons
Saludos a toda la comunidad de Miraheze. Hace un año se aprobó la creación de Miraheze Commons, un repositorio multimedia con archivos que todas las wikis de Miraheze pueden usar. Ya ha pasado un año y la wiki aún no ha definido sus políticas siendo la política de imágenes la más importante. Por eso solicito comentarios de la comunidad de Miraheze para poder definir que licencias de imágenes se aceptarán en Miraheze Commons. En principio, se deberían definir estos puntos en comparación a lo hecho en Wikimedia Commons pero adaptado a este proyecto:
 * Fair Use.
 * Derechos de autor.
 * Simple design.
 * Derivative works.


 * Next I have two proposals for politics.

Thank you for your comments. Greetings. -Hispano76 (talk) 00:37, 17 November 2019 (UTC)

Extention:CategoryTree is acting up

Helper (talk) 10:05, 18 November 2019 (UTC)

Hello. We are using Extention:CategoryTree instead of Content, which is great ! However, noticed the count shows correct amount of articles, but in Category list shown all pages including translations ending /lang-code. The top category "Статьи Вера ИСВ‎ (8 С)" shows eight _original_ pages in russian which is correct or not does not matter now. Long subpages names I will rename later.

How can I remove bureaucrat status from a user?
I want to be able to remove bureaucrat status from a user on Horrible Vyonders Wiki. How do I do so? Thank u, next, Eiji (talk) 15:50, 18 November 2019 (UTC)
 * Go to here. 16:08, 18 November 2019 (UTC)
 * What permission do you need to implement in order to be able to remove it? Thank u, next, Eiji (talk) 16:20, 18 November 2019 (UTC)
 * that's not what he's asking for; here. Hispano76 (talk) 16:24, 18 November 2019 (UTC)
 * The problem is, I can't remove bureaucrat status from a user. That's why I'm asking. How do I do so? Thank u, next, Eiji (talk) 16:27, 18 November 2019 (UTC)
 * mh:horriblevyonderswiki:Special:ManageWiki/permissions/bureaucrat is the page to manage group assignments for 'crat. You'll want to use this setting to allow Bureaucrat to remove the Bureaucrat group. A better, albeit more complicated solution would be to create a new user group which has the ability to add or remove 'crat, that way it eliminates the possibility of 'crats removing each other. See mh:guide:Special:ListGroupRights for example. dross  (t • c • g) 16:29, 18 November 2019 (UTC)
 * Okay thanks. Thank u, next, Eiji (talk) 16:34, 18 November 2019 (UTC)

Infobox
Hey, does anyone know how to make infoboxes? I need seven parameters! @Solaris2019
 * Hey there, I might be able to help you with infoboxes. Would you mind clarifying what you want it to be? Hypercane  (  talk ) 03:16, 19 November 2019 (UTC)

|name       = |image      = |caption    = |homeworld  = |residence  = |membership = |family     = |species    = |gender     = |voice actor =


 * Just a side note, there are tons of different types of templates on the Miraheze template wiki, feel free to take a look. Best, --EK ● contribs 03:33, 19 November 2019 (UTC)
 * You may want to see this page if you haven't imported any infoboxes from other wikis yet.-- 07:26, 19 November 2019 (UTC)

Permission error
Now it's constantly saying "You do not have permission to read this page, for the following reason:

The action you have requested is limited to users in one of the groups: Administrators, Members." Even though I'm the owner of the wiki. Is something rwong? — Preceding unsigned comment added by CrashFire (talk • contribs) 15:46, 19 November 2019 (UTC)
 * Could you let us know what wiki this is on? dross  (t • c • g) 16:38, 19 November 2019 (UTC)

== When I try to make a page, the option to make it won't come up and when I try to make the page by making a link to the page I want to make that doesn't exist, it shows the discussion thing under page instead. ==

Is there an explanation to this?
