Stewards' noticeboard/Archive 34

__NOINDEX__

Question
hi excuse me but in my wikitrash I can not see anything and I am told that in order to see my wikis or even the contributions I have to be part of my group. can anyone help me out of this situation ?? when I go to wikitrash the only thing I see is "NOT SUFFICIENT PERMITS" A1cb3 (talk) 22:15, 31 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Hi! So, a quick look at CentralAuth reveals that the issue is exactly that, you don't have the necessary user rights to access the wiki because it is a private wiki. The people that can help you are the Stewards, this is the Meta admin noticeboard, they can't help you. I'll move your thread over to the Stewards noticeboard.
 * I also noticed that you're not the original founder of that wiki, checked using the farmer log. If local admins decided to remove you, it is very unlikely Stewards will intervene. OrangeStar (talk) 22:23, 31 October 2022 (UTC)

Dormancy Policy exemption for
After an anonymous user made a report about Decyclopedia on this noticeboard in October, I announced that Decyclopedia was moving to an independent domain. That issue has since been resolved, but I still went ahead with the move, completing it by importing the images to the new domain last night. I would like a Dormancy Policy exemption for the Decyclopedia on Miraheze, since that wiki has now been archived and is no longer meant to be edited. Tali64³ (talk) 21:05, 1 November 2022 (UTC)
 * If the wiki moved, why does it need an exemption? Wouldn't a deletion be better? Agent Isai  Talk to me! 00:38, 2 November 2022 (UTC)
 * If the wiki were to be deleted, visitors would be confused on why the wiki suddenly disappeared. Google's search results still show the Miraheze version, so it would be necessary to keep it up until the new domain appears in search results and all the relevant links are updated.

Exemption Request
Can you please add an exemption to our The Lion King wiki? It's private and meant to be viewed by us and our other irl friends only. Admittedly we don't have much on it yet, but we will be adding more content to it soon.

 * ❌ I myself revoked your Dormancy Policy exemption as you had not used the wiki in years per Special:Log. Before today, you had 1 page with 2 sentences on the wiki. As such, I will not be inclined to grant it until much later once you have a good number of substantive pages. 1 page after 4 years of a wiki being open does not justify an exemption. Agent Isai  Talk to me! 15:18, 4 November 2022 (UTC)
 * If we add more full pages next week, would we still have to wait until "much later"?
 * Also, what would "a good number of substantive pages" be? We can go ahead and copy off one of the public TLK wikis and edit out the stuff that doesn't adhere to our canon if need be.
 * But we can't add something like 50 pages with full paragraphs when our TLK universe doesn't have that amount of content yet. It simply isn't possible. Most characters are minor and wouldn't have that much to be said about them.
 * Please clarify so we can decide whether to keep our The Lion King wiki here or try to find somewhere else to host it (ShoutWiki if that gets fixed, not sure where we'll move it otherwise since Wikia/FANDUMB is unusable). Keznen (talk) 22:07, 6 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Yes, you would have to wait. You've held an empty wiki for 4 entire years without any need to have activity on it, a privilege none of our 5,000 other wikis and 10,000 wikis ever created on Miraheze had, have, or will ever have, and would've probably not returned to it any time soon had your exemption not been revoked and an email sent to you about your wiki being closed. Please read Dormancy Policy for information on how we determine requests. We will be inclined to grant a request once your wiki has a good number of pages and once time has passed. Your pages don't have to be huge paragraphs but the wiki has to be of substantive value and not just the one singular stub page your wiki had for over 4 years. For example, if your wiki discusses more topics in depth and more aspects of your universe then that'd count as substantive and I'd be inclined to regrant the exemption. Agent Isai  Talk to me! 01:46, 7 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Well we will not wait another 4 years or even 1 year. We couldn't if we wanted to. We don't have that time even with schoolwork and writer's block aside.
 * If we have to wait a long time even after adding more content, we might as well not add anything at all. Why go through the effort for basically nothing? If the wiki is still in danger of being nuked we might as well not risk losing anything substantial. Especially infoboxes, which we don't have for our TLK Wiki yet and don't have any backups of. Maybe we'll add a little occasionally but we won't go adding tons of stuff if there's a looming threat of it being deleted.
 * Also, again, we mostly just have character pages in mind right now. We have a couple things of our own lore written down, but most stuff about the first movie (the only fully canon movie in our TLK universe; the sequel movie and show aren't for the most part) would have to pulled from elsewhere. We can only post what we have already and what we can find elsewhere that's usable. (Writer's block is a pain.)
 * We'll touch up the pages with some much-needed pictures and some basic info, and then just keep bumping it every few days until ShoutWiki finally fixes their broken creation wizard so we can move it there and delete the one here. Keznen (talk) 02:59, 7 November 2022 (UTC)
 * I'm very glad to hear that 4 more years or even 1 more will not pass. As a reminder, you can backup your own wiki at Special:DataDump and Miraheze wikis are only deleted after 6-12 months of inactivity. If you add character pages then that'd be wonderful and would certainly help build your case towards an exemption. Hope to see your exemption application in a few weeks. Agent Isai  Talk to me! 03:59, 7 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Oh, phew! We'll continue adding more character pages, then. The templates should be working now so hopefully we'll have at least half of the character pages up in the following weeks.
 * Sorry for jumping the gun on you like that. It's been stressful for us all lately. Keznen (talk) 04:50, 7 November 2022 (UTC)

Dormancy policy exception for hepro.miraheze.org
Please make a dormancy policy exception for the hepro.miraheze.org Wiki. This Wiki contains mostly unchanging information that does not need frequent updates. Thanks in advance!

 * Hi there, would you be able to provide a bit more explanation as to why you feel a Dormancy Policy exemption is necessary? I get that you feel the wiki has mostly unchanging information, but perhaps an example would be good? Thanks - BrandonWM (talk • contribs • global • rights) 03:07, 24 November 2022 (UTC)

Could you remove the link posted on MarioMario456's userpage?
https://login.miraheze.org/wiki/User:MarioMario456

It contains a link to a website that contains harassment pages filled with doxxed info and some of them harass the deceased, the contents on the site contain CP, Child Abuse, and other illegal content. I believe this needs to be done, for the safety of the users. Nidoking (talk) 14:27, 15 November 2022 (UTC)

Login Wiki
Okay, technically this doesn't need steward attention, but more like Login Wiki admin attention. The issue is that I want my userpage to be deleted. Thank you. CRAB-2 (talk) 17:25, 26 November 2022 (UTC)


 * Done. -- Void  Whispers 21:09, 27 November 2022 (UTC)

I forget my password!!!
I'm Korbsov, but I forget my password so that I create this account AtheistWH. I didn't enter my email when I used the account Korbsov so that now I have trouble...... AtheistWH (talk) 13:13, 27 November 2022 (UTC)


 * See reset lost credentials. As you don't have an email associated, SRE is unable to verify if you really are Korbsov, so we can't reset that account. Sorry. OrangeStar (talk) 13:40, 27 November 2022 (UTC)
