Welcome to Miraheze
Hello, Mazzaz, and welcome to Miraheze! Miraheze is a free, non-for-profit wiki hosting service. If you would like to start a wiki please fill in this form or, if you'd like to contribute to an existing wiki, please see a few wikis here or the full list of wikis here. Note that (private) wikis aren't accessible unless you are given access, and closed wikis cannot be edited.

For more information, please see our FAQ. If you have any additional questions, concerns, or comments, please feel free to contact us.

You are encouraged to create your user page, whether here on Meta (visible only when on Meta), or your global user page that visible on any Miraheze wiki where a user does not have a local user page and provided that the wiki has the GlobalUserPage extension enabled and, additionally, where the wiki is not using the SocialProfile extension. Should you decide to create your global user page on Loginwiki and wish for it to replace your Meta user page, simply add the delete template to the top of your Meta user page by copying and pasting this code, and an administrator should delete it promptly (usually within 24 hours).

If you have any questions, after first reviewing FAQ and the help center, please don't hesitate to ask at the community noticeboard, but please be sure to end all new topics or replies you make on talk pages, user talk pages (like this one), and noticeboards with four tildes to include both (a) a username and (b) a properly formatted timestamp for our talk page archiving bot.

wikipedia:WP:THREAD
Hello, So before answering I should add ":". Thank you! Fffv7787 (talk) 13:20, 21 July 2021 (UTC)
 * Not like this, see Special:Diff/187601. You were doing right but number of colons, you used, was wrong. Note that if a user has started a new discussion, you should start writing your reply with one : and if you are replying to a comment which starts with one :, you should start replying with 2 :: (colons) and similarly if the user uses 3 colons you should reply with 4 colons and so on. ~ Mazzaz (talk) 14:05, 21 July 2021 (UTC)
 * Additionally, you can enable Discussion tools, in your Special:Preferences, if you feel difficult to use colons. ~ Mazzaz (talk) 14:07, 21 July 2021 (UTC)
 * OK, Thank you! Fffv7787 (talk) 14:14, 21 July 2021 (UTC)

Question
Hello. I had created 3 pages with sources from the Greek Wikipedia and I had put the source. I deleted them a few days ago because I was not sure it was allowed. Do you know if allowed to I restore? Thanks! Fffv7787 (talk) 09:25, 7 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Fffv7787, do you copied the whole articles from Greek wikipedia or only the sources? If you have copy and pasted those articles from Greek Wikipedia (el.wikipedia.org), you'll need to give a proper attribution to Greek wikipedia and share your content under the same licence. Wikipedias share content under Creative Commons share-alike 3.0. Carefully read what can you do with that content here and here. ~ Mazzaz (talk)  13:00, 7 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Thanks. Although I think these are allowed according to https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/, can you see them?   and one image Fffv7787 (talk) 14:00, 7 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Fffv7787, I can see the pages, but I couldn't understand the language. Create a template like mh:Famepedia:Template:Source Wikipedia and place that on the pages which you copy form Greek Wikipedia. (This is also done on Famepedia).
 * Files are licensed under multiple licenses, some are even copyrighted and you can't use them and you might get the stike, if you do so. You need to see if the file is copyrighted or not. If the file is realesed under the same license as above (CC BY SA 3.0), then you can use it, given you follow the proper conditions. Also, note that pinging users without the signature will have no effect. You must include a signature if you want to ping anyone. ~ Mazzaz (talk) 14:30, 7 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Thank you! Fffv7787 (talk) 14:47, 7 August 2021 (UTC)
 * No problem! ~ Mazzaz (talk) 14:59, 7 August 2021 (UTC)

Shaw's Nightmare
Thanks for your help on the Shaw's Nightmare Wiki. Would you be interested in contributing to it? Mickey96 (talk) 16:45, 11 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Thank you for asking,, I feel like I am more busy editing Wikipedia and other miraheze wikis. And there is a little possibility to contribute to more wikis. In case if I'll have more free time and if the wiki interests me, I'll be there. ~ Mazzaz (talk) 17:23, 11 August 2021 (UTC)

Question
Hello. I created a template for pages from Wikipedia on my wiki. This template is comes even if I made changes to the page and it is not a copy-paste? Thanks! Fffv7787 (talk) 13:12, 7 September 2021 (UTC)
 * Hey Fffv7787, good to see you! Will you please explain any further and provide the links where the problem can be seen. I think I couldn't get you properly. --Mazzaz (talk) 15:29, 7 September 2021 (UTC)
 * Hello. Good to see you too! I would like to know when I use this template in my wiki. Thanks Fffv7787 (talk) 17:27, 7 September 2021 (UTC)
 * I created a similar on my wiki. Fffv7787 (talk) 17:29, 7 September 2021 (UTC)
 * Fffv7787, the template can be used on the pages which are copied and pasted to your or any other wiki from English Wikipedia. However, I would not recommend to copy from enwp and to create a template like Template:Source Wikipedia on FAMEPedia, instead, I would suggest to create your own content. --Mazzaz (talk) 17:41, 7 September 2021 (UTC)
 * If I use Wikipedia as a source but it isn't copy-paste do I need the template? Fffv7787 (talk) 19:13, 7 September 2021 (UTC)
 * I usually post my own content, I just get information from Greek Wikipedia(elwp). In that case, is it not necessary? Thanks! Fffv7787 (talk) 08:44, 8 September 2021 (UTC)

Hello, I did what you have said I am really confused and don't know what to do. I summitted a random namespace and don't see anything enabling Visual Editing or I may not know what it is or maybe both. DarRam (talk) 16:01, 29 September 2021 (UTC)

Quick deletion of User:Magogre/minerva.js
The page you wrote, User:Magogre/minerva.js, has been selected for quick deletion. If you think this page should be kept, please add wait below the line QD and say why on the |talk page. If the page is already gone, but you think this was an error, you can ask for it to be undeleted. You can find more information about the reason here. Ma͡gogre (talk) 09:07, 20 October 2021 (UTC)

Account confirmation requested
Hi Magogre,

Thank you for noting your apparent Wikimedia user account, and for later listing your prior Miraheze user accounts. However, those accounts Flarehot and Juslit were previously locked by self request of the user, so unable to provide the necessary confirmation edit, and previously confirmed Hulged as their alternate account, would you mind providing a confirmation edit, from Hulged on any Wikimedia wiki of your choosing noting that your apparent later account, Magogre, is also included? As well, noting your recent permission request for wiki creator, as a recommended best practice, I would recommend noting all prior Miraheze user accounts, particularly if either of Flarehot or Juslit have requested the permission.

Thanks,

 * Hi, please see this edit on Simple English Wikipedia. --Magogre (talk)  06:38, 25 November 2021 (UTC)
 * Magogre, . That's great. Feel free to stash that diff somewhere, should you have need to call upon it again in the future for some reason. I'll review and handle your  request tomorrow evening, if that's alright. Dmehus (talk) 06:40, 25 November 2021 (UTC)
 * , yes, I'll stash that diff somewhere, possibly on my userpage.
 * And for my patroller request, I am completely fine if that is reviewed tomorrow! --Magogre (talk) 07:11, 25 November 2021 (UTC)
 * Thanks. :) Dmehus (talk) 07:15, 25 November 2021 (UTC)

Patroller granted - 2021-11-26
Hi, Magogre. An administrator on Meta has granted you the  user group permission, which gives you the ability to   recent changes and new pages of other Miraheze users (both registered and anonymous) who are  not either autopatrolled or an administrator. In addition, this group also means that your edits are, so other patrollers or administrators don't have to patrol your edits. You should also be aware that the granting of this user group is at the discretion of Meta administrators, so different administrators will have slightly different criteria for granting. Likewise, just as it is a discretionary appointment, revocation is also at the discretion of Meta administrators and, again, each will have their own criteria for revocation.

In the medium-term, plans are in the works to develop a Meta Patrollers School, likely led by one or two active administrators, that will provide a comprehensive set of guidelines for patrollers and answers to commonly asked questions.

Nevertheless, the following are some of the main guidelines for patrolling. If you follow these guidelines completely, it is unlikely your patroller user group should ever be revoked. In technical terms, even when you find content that requires deletion by an administrator or otherwise requires remediation, undoing, reverting, or rolling back (if you are also a, of course), you should always first mark as patrolled any revisions regardless of whether that content is destined to remain extant to the page or even on Meta entirely.


 * 1) When patrolling talk pages, user talk pages, and noticeboards (in Main and Meta namespaces), you should first check to see whether the user properly signed their posts using four tildes . If they have not, you should add unsigned by substitution, where username is the user's username or IP address and the timestamp is the full timestamp from the diff page. As a best practice, you should also link to the diff in your edit summary, so other administrators and patrollers can easily tie your modification to the original edit being modified. To speed up this process, you can copy the   user script from line 5 of this page into either your (a) common.js or (b) global.js page (the latter applying globally on all Miraheze wikis);
 * 2) When patrolling the noticeboards, ask yourself whether this topic is on the correct noticeboard. If it is not, you should move it to the correct noticeboard, by either undoing the edit or manually removing the topic (if there have been intervening edits), again linking to the original noticeboard of the topic and the new noticeboard where it was moved in your edit summary. On the new noticeboard, you would simply paste in the topic (including the section header), linking to the diff page as in the first step. An example edit summary might be , where  ######  represents the numeric revision ID of the originally posted topic;
 * 3) Also when patrolling the noticeboards and talk pages (including user talk pages), as a best practice, take care to kindly fix any formatting mistakes (such as excess line breaks or incorrect wiki code), per WP:LISTGAP;
 * 4) If something requires deletion, you can add delete to the top of the page in question, taking care to follow the instructions on that template page;
 * 5) If you come across a user who repeatedly makes the same mistakes, send them a guidance note on their user talk page, informing of the steps need to edit and post constructively on Meta; and, finally,
 * 6) If in doubt whether something requires remediation or not, patrol it, and then ask any administrator via their user talk page or at Administrators' noticeboard if any further action needs to be taken.

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to reach out. Thank you! --Dmehus (talk) 05:14, 26 November 2021 (UTC)
