MediaWiki:Uploadtext
By default, MediaWiki:Uploadtext has in it, although not all wikis use that template, so was wondering if can be changed to like Note:. Bawitdaba (talk) 21:48, 14 September 2022 (UTC)


 * Thanks for catching that, I'll make a PR to change that. Agent Isai  Talk to me! 23:15, 14 September 2022 (UTC)


 * You're welcome. Also, I asked about fair dealing to Reception123 & am hoping it won't drastically affect the wikis that I run. I remember I already added U.S. fair use templates on the wikis, but if it helps, I manually added the notice into wikis I run, as most I've already customized the MediaWiki:Uploadtext (e.g. Sega Wiki, as shown in the link here).

About the wiki I'm planning
Previously I made a request to open the Programas Brilhantes da TV Brasileira, a wiki which will feature only well-received Brazilian TV shows from my country Brazil, due to the closure of Best Shows & Episodes Wiki and Qualitipedia as a whole, but was rejected, friends of mine wants the wiki be open and edit there, given the Brazilian television has a lot of well-received shows and the wiki will not have any relation with the now-defunct Qualitipedia, since it is separated MariaJúlia1718 (talk) 20:10, 27 September 2022 (UTC)


 * That sounds like a fork of Best Shows & Episodes Wiki, which is not allowed by the Content Policy (Agent correct me if this is wrong). Marxo Grouch (talk) 22:05, 27 September 2022 (UTC)
 * It won't be a rip-off of the now-defunct BS&EW, since it won't include shows from other countries, to avoid to be a complete rip-off from the already mentioned wiki, and also the wiki will be apolitical, with no mention of SJWs MariaJúlia1718 (talk) 11:03, 28 September 2022 (UTC)

Please lock this RfC

 * Requests for Comment/Allowing blog posts to be made here

This was an RfC created back in July that you closed on the day it was created, yet when I revisited it I noticed that despite being closed the RfC is still editable. Can you please fix this? Marxo Grouch (talk) 13:48, 29 September 2022 (UTC)


 * We generally don't protect pages unless disruption occurs, that includes all Requests for Comment. If someone edits the page, we'll ask them not to and if they repeatedly don't listen, we block them. Agent Isai  Talk to me! 13:50, 29 September 2022 (UTC)

The New Reception Wiki
Why is this wiki closed? FatBurn0000 (sandbox | CentralAuth) 03:09, 30 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Oh, sorry, I didn't realise it had been closed by a steward, but why didn't it appear on the logs, why was I allowed to reopen it, and why was it closed? FatBurn0000 (sandbox | CentralAuth) 03:11, 30 September 2022 (UTC)

LovingHaydeL (talk) 17:11, 30 September 2022 (UTC)
 * 1) You don't have any logs that say recent changes.
 * 2) Dunno, but it is now locked.
 * 3) to quote Reception123: "Vast majority of content is direct fork from other wikis which is not allowed by the Content Policy. The RfC in favor of allowing such a practice for QP wikis was not successful."
 * Well I was going to remove the imported pages. FatBurn0000 (sandbox | CentralAuth) 00:21, 1 October 2022 (UTC)
 * ok LovingHaydeL (talk) 15:53, 2 October 2022 (UTC)

So reception wikis are now banned for "Miraheze does not host wikis with the sole purpose to spread unsubstantiated insult, hate or rumors against a person or group of people."
And requesting one will be declined. So they are fully banned off of the site, this includes CGW, AMW, TTV, and many others Nidoking (talk) 16:35, 3 October 2022 (UTC)


 * Yet Terrible SML Videos is allowed, and that wiki also criticizes user's videos Nidoking (talk) 16:48, 3 October 2022 (UTC)
 * This is false. Reception wikis are not banned. The type of reception wiki you requested is banned. The Goose Named Zeus  (talk|contribs|accounts|uploads|email) 17:06, 3 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Then explain why Terrible SML Videos and Trashy Vyond Videos are allowed, when those wikis also criticizes user's videos. Nidoking (talk) 17:13, 3 October 2022 (UTC)
 * So? Will the wikis be removed or not? Considering I made a statement in the wiki request if it gets declined those 2 wikis may get closed for having similar content in it (In which criticizes user's videos) Nidoking (talk) 22:59, 3 October 2022 (UTC)

I have a question
Do you like Dhar Mann's content? And you don't want me to criticize it? Nidoking (talk) 12:04, 4 October 2022 (UTC)


 * I wasn't able to post this yesterday but I will get to the bottom of your issue here now. We've covered it on discord at length but I will summarize, and it is up to you to take it or leave it and preferably not take it personally. But I can't stop you if you do I suppose.
 * This has nothing to do with all reception wikis being topic banned, and it is absolutely disingenuous to assert that Agent is personally trying to protect Dhar Mann by rejecting the request. It would be rejected for the same reason a wiki would be rejected about any living person: Miraheze as a platform, as per Content Policy wants to avoid at all costs having wikis which direct negative attention to individual people by scope. Just because videos on wikis like 'Vyond Videos' were made by people doesn't mean that the wiki has a topic specifically addressed to that person, it's just a platform. Your request specifically singles out Dhar Mann and it is absurdly easy for that to extend to unacceptably bashing him via a wiki on the service. This wouldn't be accepted at any time no matter who you name as a person.
 * This is not the reception wiki world where decisions are made on a personal basis or for basically no reason whatsoever: there is precedence, background and caution in the decisions that are made here, especially by a Steward in accepting wikis. Mistakes happen but this is a mistake the platform has already made (scopes like yours) and doesn't plan to make again. So please, consider that there may be a sincere reason behind the rejection; spare me attempting to lawyer out of the basic point of targeting an individual by scope; and try not to insinuate basic bad practice and instead try to find the actual, policy based reason why the decision was made.
 * Finally to address the above topic: you are making a false equivalence. The reason above does not apply to the two wikis you're trying to glue into this. If they have violations of the content policy (not, as you stated in the request, 'code of conduct' which is unrelated) then they should be reported on their own merits and you will get reasons why that is accepted or denied at that point. --Raidarr (talk) 12:20, 4 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Doesn't Terrible SML Videos also have it's wiki addressed to one person? Nidoking (talk) 12:27, 4 October 2022 (UTC)
 * we are not criticizing celebs again. I mean, I could make a review wiki where I hate on an artist work and praise another, but that DOES NOT MEAN I hate the artist, I just don't like that music in particular. LovingHaydeL (talk) 14:53, 4 October 2022 (UTC)

Badminton
Your profile says you play badminton. I rarely hear of it here in America, though it is present on Mario & Sonic Olympics 2012 (London) and 2016 (Rio) games (i played the 3DS ones in particular). have you played badminton on the Olympic-sponsored Mario & Sonic titles?

(sorry if this sounded random -- I realized badminton was on games & it reminded me of your profile for some reason) Bawitdaba (talk) 02:57, 6 October 2022 (UTC)
