ManageWiki/ja

ManageWiki is a feature on Miraheze that allows users to easily modify the settings on their wikis, such as by enabling extensions and changing the logo. For any questions about this guide, please see the community noticeboard.

General Features
The first option in ManageWiki is the Database name of your wiki. This is the same as the subdomain of the wiki when it was first requested/created except it has the suffix -wiki. It cannot be changed without assistance from sysadmins.

The second option is for the Sitename. The sitename is generally a short word or phrase that sums up the purpose or subject of your wiki. It is also the name of an entire namespace in your wiki, generalized as being the Project: namespace. For example, on this wiki (Meta), the project namespace can be reached by linking to either Project:Page or Meta:Page.

The third option is for language, and it should be whatever language your wiki is supposed to be read in. It will change the language of the interface to the selected language for all users, however the language can be set in your preferences. If your wiki is not turning up in the language you selected, please first check to make sure that you don't have any other language selected in preferences, then file a bug report.

The next three options are checkboxes labeled Private, Closed, and Inactive. The Private checkbox modifies the visibility of your wiki. Any wiki with this feature enabled can only be read by users in the Administrator or Member groups. Please see here for more details. The Closed and Inactive checkboxes are enabled automatically when the wiki begins fulfilling the requirements of the Dormancy Policy. If either of these is selected on your wiki, and you wish to continue the project, you can disable them and continue contributing. Please note that it is not possible to contribute on a Closed wiki.

After those is the option for Category. This option allows you to put your wiki into a category of your choosing that will allow users to more easily find your wiki through WikiDiscover. If your wiki doesn't fit into any of the supplied categories, feel free to make a request for a new one.

The final general option is for changing the default skin on your wiki. Any skin you have enabled alongside the default skins will be made available. The skin you select will be made visible to all users, even those logged out, unless they change it in their settings.

Logo and Favicon
To change the logo and favicon of your wiki, you need to add a specific URL to the textbox below the option. This URL will always be in the form of //static.miraheze.org/yourwiki/XX/XX/File_name.X, where X is a stand-in character for something that will be different depending on the file. To get this URL, follow these simple steps:
 * 1) Open the page for the file you want to be your logo.
 * 2) Right click on the image and select an option to "Open image in a new tab" OR drag and drop the image into a new tab on your browser.
 * 3) Copy the URL of the current page.

Once you are done, make sure to clear the cache in your browser in order to see the updated image. Please be aware that the change may not be immediate, and can take several minutes to go through.

License
Each wiki on Miraheze is by default licensed under CC-BY-SA 4.0 although this can be changed to another supported license. If you would like to release the contributions on your wiki under another license, please let us know so that we can make it available to you. Be aware that changing the license on your wiki can have an impact on your community and should not be done lightly.

Extensions
There is a specific page for enabling and disabling extensions called Special:ManageWikiExtensions, as we have a large enough number of extensions that it makes it difficult to modify general settings due to the size of the page. This page should include all extensions and skins that we currently have enabled for use on Miraheze. To enable or disable an extension, simply check or uncheck the box next to its name and remember to save your changes.

Each extension name currently links to the extension documentation page on mediawiki.org, which should prove useful for finding general help specific to whatever extension you are working with. If any link does not work, please let us know so that we may fix it.

Some extensions have an icon i next to their names, this signifies that there is additional information that you should be aware of before enabling this extension. Several of these extensions may require additional work in order to enable them, and will require sysadmin assistance. Other extensions are simply not compatible with each other and will break your wikis functionality if enabled together. Don't worry though, the software will reject you changes if you enable two conflicting extensions.

If you would like to enable other extensions on your wiki that you don't see on this list, please make a task on Phabricator.
