Request for Interwiki table configuration
Hi Community, Please I hereby request that 1. 'fd:' links to https://famedata.org, 2. 'f:' links to https://en.famepedia.org. on the inter-wiki table Thanks. Cc: @ Ugochimobi (talk) 23:32, 5 April 2021 (UTC)


 * Ugochimobi Do you require either of the forward or transclude flags for either or no? (These can always be changed later.) Also, do you want me to add  on Famepedia as well, or just add   on Famepedia and   on Famedata? Dmehus (talk) 23:37, 5 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Its like this, 'f' for famepedia and 'fd' for famedata since we already have 'd' for wikidata. Don't know if we can override that. Ugochimobi (talk) 23:48, 5 April 2021 (UTC)
 * You can definitely use  for Famedata as a local override. My question, though, is do you want both prefixes on both your wikis, or just the prefix for the one wiki on the other wiki and the prefix for the other wiki on the one wiki? Hope that clarifies. Dmehus (talk) 23:54, 5 April 2021 (UTC)
 * yes both prefixes on both wikis please, and you can use 'd' for famedata locally. Thanks. Ugochimobi (talk) 23:57, 5 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Ugochimobi Understood. Both prefixes on both wikis have been ✅ now. Dmehus (talk) 00:07, 6 April 2021 (UTC)

Okay @, it hasn't reflected though but can this interwiki especially 'f' be global? Ugochimobi (talk) 00:30, 6 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Ugochimobi In keeping with Miraheze's commitment to have as much local control and discretion on each wiki, interwiki prefixes are added locally to each wiki's interwiki table. Thus, the changes are are already effected on Famepedia's interwiki table and Famedata's interwiki table. The global interwiki table is held on Meta Wiki at Special:Interwiki and is mainly used for interwiki prefixes used by many wikis or because they share a common pan-Miraheze purpose. As it would become quite bloated rather quickly, we instead created MirahezeMagic pseudo-interwiki prefixes, which are formatted in the format of . They even work in log actions now, thanks to Universal Omega's recent enhancements! The only things you cannot do is transclude them or use them for locally assigning imported edits, but that's why we can add interwiki prefixes to your wiki. Dmehus (talk) 00:42, 6 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Thanks man! Ugochimobi (talk) 00:49, 6 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Ugochimobi No problem at all. You may be interested to know that you can manage interwiki prefixes on your locally, if you wish. To do this, all you need to do is hold a local election on each wiki where requesting  and, provided you meet the global policy requirements for local interwiki administrators, can then request Stewards assess your local election after at least 5-7 calendar days. This is generally only required, though, if you expect to regularly add local interwiki or interlanguage prefixes to your wiki(s), but it is nonetheless an option available to you. Dmehus (talk) 00:56, 6 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Many thanks Ugochimobi (talk) 09:01, 6 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Hi @, Could you please guide me in this regards?? Ugochimobi (talk) 09:33, 8 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Ugochimobi Generally speaking, it just involves you creating either a special election page somewhere on your wiki or, if you have a specific permissions requests page, adding your request for local  to that page. Unless your wiki has rules defining how long permissions requests or elections should remain open, after at least 5-7 calendar days, you can then post a note on stewards' noticeboard requesting a Steward assess your local election. Hope that helps. Dmehus (talk) 14:19, 8 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Oh, @ you mean I should request local interwiki-admin permission on my local Request for permission page and then after 5-7 calendar days i can come request a steward to assess my request. For example in my Administrators' Noticeboard page??? Ugochimobi (talk) 14:58, 8 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Yeah, that's right, principally because it's a local user group. It's only restricted to Stewards to grant for mainly security and technical reasons. The page you linked would be fine, yeah. Dmehus (talk) 15:01, 8 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Okay Thanks @ I'll do just that Ugochimobi (talk) 15:11, 8 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Okay @ I'll do just that. Ugochimobi (talk) 15:20, 8 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Hi Its exactly Six (6) days that i place a request for interwiki admin in my wiki at the A N
 * I would love you to help check out and give grant. Thanks @ Ugochimobi (talk) 13:02, 15 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Ugochimobi, though local election assessment requests should be requested at stewards' noticeboard in the future, it's not a problem that it was here in this case&mdash;just more of a point for the future. Anyway, I've now ✅ your local permissions request for  as a successful election by acclamation. Dmehus (talk) 16:28, 15 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Thanks
 * No problems at all, furtherly I'd go to stewards' noticeboard.
 * Thanks once again. Ugochimobi (talk) 16:40, 15 April 2021 (UTC)

How to put a youtube video?
I add youtube extension but nothing changed in the editor. I'm unable to understand what do the the associated page speaks about: https://github.com/miraheze/YouTube And I can't do this kind of things : https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:EmbedVideo Emmanuel (talk) 12:09, 14 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Youtube extension does not change anything in the editor, it adds a tag to the wiki. You can embed a youtube video in a page using . I do not use EmbedVideo I guess it is the same as the youtube extension. I have tested the extension on your test page (OMG I really do hate those captchas with the ugly pics), embedvideo is not activated on your wiki, LilyLilyu - smile.svg talk and I will listen · Lilypond Wiki 20:36, 14 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Oh Thank you so much Lily ! lol
 * On my Wiki I can put an external link without captcha. Here it's the same, except with visualeditor. I can't put such a link here whih it because a bug captcha prevents me.
 * Emmanuel (talk) 23:17, 14 April 2021 (UTC)
 * You have admin rights on your wiki. Did you try to enter an external link with a user account without special rights? Happy editing, greetings, LilyLilyu - smile.svg talk and I will listen · Lilypond Wiki 03:06, 15 April 2021 (UTC)
 * As you gave me the idea I juste tested : There's well a captcha :) As I créated a test user, I wanted to test the rights changing for it but I didn't found. I will ask it in a better place, bellow.
 * What's strang is that, with wiki editor, here I can put a link without captcha...
 * I Just undersand : It beacause I puted it as text (question below)

 * You can change a user right by going to the special page  in your local wiki, thereafter you can insert the username of the user you want to change the right. Ugochimobi (talk) 12:13, 15 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Wouaw Great Merci :) Emmanuel (talk) 12:33, 15 April 2021 (UTC)
