User:kurieがグローバルブロックされたことを受けこちらでビューロクラット解任を依頼します. よろしくお願いいたします. Ysmreg (talk) 13:45, 3 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Uh, you really should write in English if you can (because they don't understand Japanese). Here's a translation:
 * "Since User:kurie is now locked globally, I'd like you to remove the user's bureaucrat permission on my wiki. Thanks."

 * Thanks! Why is jp local though? --Raltseye (talk) 23:42, 11 August 2018 (UTC)
 * How do you mean local? If you mean on only the local interwiki table, then that's intentional. As a specific request for a specific wiki, none of these got added to the global interwiki table. -- Void  Whispers 23:45, 11 August 2018 (UTC)
 * I mean as in, when I tested them all on my user page, jp, was excluded and was not moved to the sidebar but was instead contained as a link on the page. Why? --Raltseye (talk) 12:14, 12 August 2018 (UTC)

I conjured up a list of Proxy IPs to block
Hello, I have a list of proxy IPs you can block to enforce Miraheze no proxies policy. Linked in my sig, said Fair002 in a statement. | Proxy IPs for blocking 03:53, 8 August 2018 (UTC)
 * I could on publictestwiki and on my own Wiki but there are thousands over here on the English Wikipedia which a bot is constantly blocking so the list can never end. Pkbwcgs (talk) 08:09, 8 August 2018 (UTC)

Requesting non-deletion of OpenHatch wiki
Hi Stewards!

I've been importing the OpenHatch wiki to Miraheze, for the main purpose of keeping it online as an archive as the non-profit OpenHatch has wound down operations. You can read more about our history growing open source here: https://blog.openhatch.org/2017/celebrating-our-successes-and-winding-down-as-an-organization/

I'd love to keep our wiki online for posterity, so that people who are trying to run similar organizations in the future can use our information as a resource. The only edits I foresee in the future are related to updating historical information. The wiki is likely to go dormant over the next few monnths, but my preference is to keep it online even if it does go dormant.

I'm in the #miraheze channel on Freenode, and intend to be responsive to questions from Miraheze staff. Let me know what you think!
 * Sorry for the late response. I've given your wiki a Dormancy exemption. Reception123 (talk) ('C' ) 05:21, 12 August 2018 (UTC)

Delete wiki
Hello! I would like to completely delete these two test wikis without adoption option. https://virtualcommunity.miraheze.org/wiki/Hlavná_stránka https://thisreality.miraheze.org/wiki/Main_Page

Thank you Dami (talk) 18:27, 13 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Hi, this request has been moved to Phabricator as stewards cannot delete wikis. Amanda Catherine (talk) 18:42, 13 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Hi, out of curiosity, may I ask, why are you requesting deletion? Reception123 (talk) ('C' ) 09:59, 14 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Because the only thing that forced me to continue the wiki was an infobox that does not work. Unfortunately, no one was able to help me. Anyway, thank you to all who helped me somehow. For a very long time, I wanted to have my own wiki with functional infoboxes, but we probably can not have everything. Thank you Dami (talk) 11:09, 14 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Do you still need help for your infobox? I'm sure someone will be able to help you. Reception123 (talk) ('C' ) 11:55, 14 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Yes, I'll be grateful if someone helps me. But I still ask for a complete wipe of these wikis. When someone finds a solution, I'll ask for one new one. Dami (talk) 12:41, 14 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Ok. ^ Reception123  (talk) ('C' ) 13:26, 14 August 2018 (UTC)
 * I've mostly resolved the issue by simply removing  from the template that was throwing a Lua error on thisrealitywiki. The documentation will have to be accessed manually, but the template appears to be functional. --  Void  Whispers 19:33, 16 August 2018 (UTC)
 * I really appreciate it. I can not thank you enough. Dami (talk) 22:34, 16 August 2018 (UTC)

504 Gateway Time-out on template import
I've exported Template:Graphical timeline Template:Horizontal timeline Template:Horizontal timeline/doc Template:Horizontal timeline/sandbox Template:Include timeline Template:Include timeline/sandbox Template:Sidebar timeline Template:Simple Horizontal timeline Template:Simple Horizontal timeline/doc Template:Timeline Legend Template:Timeline of release years from Wikipedia - 451 kb. Apparently (in Recent changes) they've imported once into Miraheze template wiki okay. However the import page fails each time I've tried it, with the error "504 Gateway Time-out". --Rob Kam (talk) 11:47, 16 August 2018 (UTC)


 * Hi, we apologise for the problem your having. It seems mediawiki is slow at processing the xml files thus it is hitting the timeout. We have set the timeout at 400 but that doesn't seem to be helping much. If you would like us to import this please create a task on "https://phabricator.miraheze.org" with the wiki you want it imported into and the file you would like us to use as the import. Paladox (talk) 17:28, 17 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Thanks. I managed to import it after repeated tries. I'll ask first on Phabricator in future. Rob Kam (talk) 22:48, 17 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Can you import Template:info

Need help importing template
Hello can somebody please export the wikipedia template Template:Infobox to my wiki at [crazybloxianempireinfo.miraheze.org]? Thx
 * You can do this yourself by going to Special:Export on Wikipedia (check "full history") and then going to Special:Import on your wiki. Please remember to sign your posts with 4 tildes ( ~ ). Reception123 (talk) ('C' ) 07:49, 20 August 2018 (UTC)

Making Ansaikuropedia and Usopedia exempted from the Dormancy Policy
Hi, I'd like to request two of the wikis I'm involved as a bureaucrat/admin to be exempted from the Dormancy Policy.

The 2 wikis are: Both of them have over 1000 articles, and are read by many people. I'm also a committed member on Meta, meaning I have global activities.
 * 1) https://newusopedia.miraheze.org - Usopedia
 * 2) https://ansaikuropedia.miraheze.org -Ansaikuropedia

Thanks for your consideration.-- 08:01, 20 August 2018 (UTC)

Internet slandering
Hello, I would like to complain to users of the wiki Nonsensopedia: Sir Polskacafe, Mr obornik and Michsar for publicly slandering me on the internet. These users have written NonAnalysis [] about my work [] where I am insulting with my nickname (Inferno82) without any scruples. The slogans in the style of "Have a fucking schizophrenia" are there on the agenda. Unfortunately, none of the administrations has deleted this personal attack, so I am asking for help here. I am demanding to remove this work and to remove the permissions and blocking these users for publicly defaming me on the internet and not removing this work. Nobody even apologized for this creation. By law, I could accuse these users of the abuse on the Internet. I am deeply disappointed by the local community and I would like to ask for help here. My discussion is here [] Inferno82 (talk) 20:59, 20 August 2018 (UTC)
 * To start by picking a nit, written text is not slander but it might be libel. But only if it harms your reputation, and that is pretty hard to do to an anonymous wiki user operating under a nickname.  It could harm your reputation within Nonsensopedia.  However, smooth dealings among wiki users is generally one of the jobs of that wiki's Admins.  Meta is a separate wiki (a separate "community") whose only task relative to Nonsensopedia is to keep it operational.  Meta people are unlikely to take sides or intervene into the Nonsensopedia community to enforce standards of behavior, unless the behavior poses risks of getting Miraheze in trouble with the Law.  Also, I'm pretty sure that deciding who is right would require that the interlopers read Polish.   01:12 21-Aug-2018
 * There currently appears to be a deletion process open on the pages in question. I'd be more tempted to let that run its course as opposed to do anything more, especially since those pages seem to be leaning towards unanimous deletion (correct me if I'm wrong). -- Void  Whispers 02:40, 21 August 2018 (UTC)
 * If you believe that this may violate the Code of Conduct you can send an email to the Code of Conduct/Commission and we will review it. Reception123 (talk) ('C' ) 05:24, 21 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Also: Nonsensopedia is a humor wiki, and "Have a fucking schizophrenia" is not a serious threat. Please re-read and consider whether the whole thing was a crude attempt at humor.   13:17 21-Aug-2018
