how to fix error?
Hello! When I did the Template "Website" I got the error "Error Lua in Module: Wikidata on line 186: attempt to index field 'wikibase' (a nil value)." I think I need to enable the "Wikibase (client)" extension for the template to work. If I think correctly, how can I turn it on? Wiki — frog.miraheze.org	Kwack (talk)

Need assistance editting Common.css/Vector.css
Hello, I need assistance making some edits to my wiki's visual appearance, but haven't been able to change some aspects of the wiki due to poor knowledge of which assists are altered. I've listed what I'm trying to change in the list below.

I'm not sure what happened here, but for whatever reason the tab colors here are mismatched. I'm trying to make the colors similar to the tabs named "Flag", but it either reverts the primary #303030 rather than the desired #3D3D3D. I've been trying forever to convert the color of the tabs here to #3D3D3D, but it either reverts to the default Wikipedia color shown in the image, or it removes the boxes entirely and changes the appearance of the box.
 * Tabs/Navigation/Contents
 * 1) I wanted to make the tabs at the top fade similar to the system on other wikis, where the primary color of the article page (in this case #3D3D3D) is used as a solid color at the bottom of the tab, before turning transparent at the top. Whenever I made any edits to the Common.css, the tabs either turned completely solid, or disappeared. Likewise, there would still be a line from the top of the page running through the tab rather than disappearing for the tab you selected.
 * 2) I don't know what to change in the Common.css to alter the color of the navigation menu to the left to #EFEFFF. I've done it before but not anymore since it's been a while.
 * 3) I would like to make the color of all the hyperlinks #B0C4DE (or whatever color I used for the existing ones on the article). However, I don't know which part of the .css to edit to change the content bar's own link for the dropdown box.
 * 4) Another issue I'm facing is that I don't know how to change the color of the section numbers in the content bar itself. I've done it before on the Wikia site, but when Monobook was removed, I found that several of the assets I edited in the Monobook.css were incapable with Miraheze. Since then I have been unable to make any of the changes I need to the bar.
 * Wikitable Tabs
 * NavBox Tabs

Here is the link to the wiki: Wiki

I appreciate any help I can get to finally get this stuff out of the way. Thank you! Vivaporius (talk) 16:46, 11 August 2019 (UTC)
 * I've got some work into trying what you've asked for at xyon:User:Void/common.css. You can try out the changes I've made by copying the contents of that page to xyon:Special:MyPage/common.css before adding it to MediaWiki:Common.css or MediaWiki:Vector.css (whichever you're using). Let me know if anything needs changing. -- Void  Whispers 21:18, 15 August 2019 (UTC)

Report https://moderaterightpedia.miraheze.org
The Miraheze wiki, https://moderaterightpedia.miraheze.org, was initially on the Wiki Fandom as Moderate-Right Pedia. I am an admin for Liberapedia on the fandom and here to report that Moderate-Right Pedia, under the group name "A-Z," has continuously stalked us, vandalized our pages, and threatened to "take down our wiki (Liberapedia)" for the past year. They also have a YouTube channel and in one of the videos admitted to hacking our website (last Friday). They are only using Miraheze to escape the consequences of their actions and will probably continue hacking our website even when fully migrated. Also see this. Signed Rushwrj13, 13 August 2019
 * Page(s) found in violation of our policies are removed, and further action will be taken if necessary. Reception123 (talk) ('C' ) 18:05, 14 August 2019 (UTC)

Fandom n Hatedom Wars
I'm just wondering about some users make refuge from Wikia/Fandom, i've seen discussions that Wikia/Fandom is banning users that causes drama like Fandom wars and their toxicity. --Zirukurt01 (talk) 10:32, 15 August 2019 (UTC)
 * Sorry, but what is it really about? Gustave London (talk) 11:24, 15 August 2019 (UTC)
 * It's about a wiki that has been violating the Terms of Service from Wiki/Fandom, and the local wiki admins moved here to settle their own. I think they violated the ToS number 9.1 from the mentioned website (Wikia/Fandom), 9. Prohibited Conduct "create, upload, transmit, distribute, or store any content that is inaccurate, unlawful, infringing, defamatory, obscene, pornographic, invasive of privacy or publicity rights, harassing, threatening, abusive, inflammatory, or otherwise objectionable;". Does the Wikia/Fandom ToS have the similar Prohibited Conduct to Miraheze's ToS? --Zirukurt01 (talk) 11:47, 15 August 2019 (UTC)
 * This will depend on the Miraheze global rule or local rules. Did you read them? Gustave London (talk) 12:01, 15 August 2019 (UTC)
 * Only ToS, i'll decide to report complaint after i read the Content policy. --Zirukurt01 (talk) 22:05, 15 August 2019 (UTC)
 * If you have any specific complains about a wiki violating our Content Policy and/or Terms of Use please let us know. Obviously, there are differences between our ToU and Wikia' s. Reception123 (talk) ('C' ) 12:05, 15 August 2019 (UTC)

I can’t translate stuff on my own wiki
Hello, i wanted to translate an article on my wiki to tagalog, but apparently it wont let me. even though i am admin and bureaucrat and autoconfirmed user. please...

 * I've given a quick look at your Special:ManageWiki/permissions and it seems like you don't have the 'translate' permission assigned to any group. Once you assign that, it should work. Reception123 (talk) ('C' ) 07:59, 17 August 2019 (UTC)

Why is member in User Rights: Groups you cannot change?
That section in grayed out. What am I missing? Thanks, MarkDilley
 * You can configure groups in that category with Special:ManageWiki/permissions. Reception123 (talk) ('C' ) 06:41, 23 August 2019 (UTC)


 * Thanks, I am not trying to edit the groups, I am just trying to get access to turning them on. I don't see where I can do that there. Sorry for thickheadedness. Best,  MarkDilley
 * Jumped onto IRC today and RhinosF1 was able to help me, much appreciation.  MarkDilley

Talented Deviants Wiki
Hello, I would like to be an admin and bureaucrat on Talented Deviants Wiki, because there's only one admin and bureacrat there, and I want to enables some extensions. I did tell the founder to makes me an admin and bureaucrat, but she did not make it, so, I've needs your help to make me into one. --12:08, 24 August 2019 (UTC)
 * Hello. In order to be an admin and bureaucrat on that wiki, you need to have community consensus so that a Steward can grant rights. Reception123 (talk) ('C' ) 12:21, 24 August 2019 (UTC)

@Reception123 What is "Community Consensus?" --Theresnoname (talk) 12:31, 24 August 2019 (UTC)
 * It means that users from the wiki have to vote/comment and say that they would like you to be an admin and bureaucrat. Reception123 (talk) ('C' ) 12:36, 24 August 2019 (UTC)

@Reception123 Sorry, but we don't have it, Queenspace is the only admins and bureaucrat on that wiki. --Theresnoname (talk) 13:09, 24 August 2019 (UTC)
 * I don't quite understand what you mean, but unless there is a clear sign that the community wants you to be a bureaucrat Stewards will not grant the rights. Reception123 (talk) ('C' ) 13:13, 24 August 2019 (UTC)

Annoying popup when editing
After I enabled Visual Editor on my wiki, every single time I edit a page it gives me the "Welcome to (my wiki)" pop-up. While it's a nice (if intrusive) welcome message for first-time editors, it is very annoying to have to close it dozens of times a day on my own wiki. Is there a way to turn the pop-up off?

Thanks, -SuperIdiotMan00 (talk) 19:04, 24 August 2019 (UTC)
 * Hi . You can use the 'Enable VisualEditor Show Beta Welcome' option in the beta section of Special:ManageWiki/settings on your wiki to turn this off :) ~ RhinosF1 - (chat) · CA · contribs · Rights - ) 19:09, 24 August 2019 (UTC)
