Wiki renaming request
Please rename Lexipedia to Linguapedia: https://linguapedia.miraheze.org/

This is because Lexipedia is already a company name used by someone else. Lingua (talk) 01:12, 29 November 2020 (UTC)


 * Thanks. I have also submitted the request at Phabricator. Lingua (talk) 01:29, 29 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Thank you for posting this request on Administrators' noticeboard, which I have procedurally moved to your user talk page, where it now notionally more in scope. At the same time, welcome to both Meta Wiki and to Miraheze, and thank you for signing your posts with four tildes . Please note this request is in scope of and handled by system administrators, as it involves renaming your wiki's database name and, in turn, your wiki subdomain. As such, Phabricator ticket #T6522 has been opened for you. You can create a Phabricator account at phabricator.miraheze.org, clicking on "MediaWiki signin," and you will be prompted, using OAuth, to link your Phabricator account to your wiki account. Hope that helps. Thanks. Dmehus (talk) 01:32, 29 November 2020 (UTC)

 * Thanks . I have trouble logging in though, since I keep getting a message saying "No active login attempt is in progress for your session." when I try to log in. Could you take a look into this? Lingua (talk) 12:53, 29 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Hi, could you please try to clear all your  cookies and try to log in again? Reception123 (talk) ( C ) 13:29, 29 November 2020 (UTC)
 * I already did, but that didn't work. I've tried different browsers and deleting all cache and cookies. However, I was able to log in from an alternative non-admin account, User:Lingua-public. See if anything else can work.
 * But if all this doesn't work, then maybe I can start a new user account, and you can give it local bureaucrat and sysop rights? Lingua (talk) 14:15, 29 November 2020 (UTC)
 * I'm not quite sure what the issue is if you cannot use your new wiki address from your main account, but it shouldn't be necessary to either recreate your wiki, as others can access it, or create a new user account. So, please don't do this. The solution is to resolve this. Personally, this could be a DNS propagation issue with your ISP where you use your main account, so I'd suggest waiting a few days, and just using other account for now (presumably via mobile and with your cell phone provider). Do you use your ISP's DNS, or some other DNS provider, like Cloudflare's 1.1.1.1 or OpenDNS? Dmehus (talk) 15:00, 29 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Can you access the wiki at its new address, and it is just a login issue? If so, I wonder if maybe can reset your login token (a system administrator task), since it is related to your login session? It possibly couldn't hurt. Dmehus (talk) 15:03, 29 November 2020 (UTC)
 * That's exactly what I did. Please try to remove and then restore user rights, reset the login token, tweak the wiki, or whatever you can do. Thanks. Lingua (talk) 15:19, 29 November 2020 (UTC)
 * In the meantime, just give full bureaucrat and sysop rights to User:Lingua-public, and that should be enough for now. Lingua (talk) 15:34, 29 November 2020 (UTC)
 * That would require a steward, unfortunately, and there are none available at the moment. So I'd rather have Reception123 try resetting your login token and having you clear all your  cookies again once that's done. Dmehus (talk) 15:36, 29 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Thanks! Once that's done, then I'm all good to go. Really appreciate your time and support. Lingua (talk) 15:40, 29 November 2020 (UTC)

has advised trying something else first, so can you please go to Loginwiki and logout, then your wiki and logout, then clear all web browser cookies again for, and relogin again? Thanks. Dmehus (talk) 15:58, 29 November 2020 (UTC)
 * I just tried that, but it didn't work. Anyways I don't need sysop rights for at least the next few days. Let me know when the login token gets reset. Lingua (talk) 16:37, 29 November 2020 (UTC)
 * has just reset your login token, so can you try repeating the above process, logging out on Loginwiki, Linguapedia, and clearing your cookies, and re-logging in again? Dmehus (talk) 17:05, 29 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Worked like a charm! No login problems now. Thanks everyone. Lingua (talk) 17:13, 29 November 2020 (UTC)
 * ✅ Glad to hear. You may also want to add  rights to your public alternate account as well, as a backup. Dmehus (talk) 17:49, 29 November 2020 (UTC)
