Question about multi-language support
I am thinking about adding multi-language support to  (this is also discussed on a forum about the wiki's topic starting from this post:  ). (Seems it's not possible to post external links here.)

It seems like mw:Extension:Translate may be a good fit and it is available to enable in ManageWiki (after enabling mw:Extension:UniversalLanguageSelector).

However, the initial wiki request and the current wiki configuration specify just English as the wiki language (and there doesn't seem to be a way to specify multiple) and I'm not sure whether there is any policy regarding having multiple languages in one wiki.

Also, I couldn't easily find examples of other Miraheze wikis (excluding Meta, etc.) that support multiple languages via that extension (though there are examples of a different approach—using completely separate wikis). ImpliedMemory (talk) 20:56, 25 January 2023 (UTC)


 * In Miraheze, multiple languages in the same subdomain are currently not supported, i.e.  and   (Japanese version) cannot exist at the same time. However, you can add language code in front of (or behind) the subdomain name, e.g. wikis with these subdomains exist at the same time:   and   (or , i.e. the French version). You can remain your existing wiki's subdomain not to be changed, and follow above steps to build a foreign language version.
 * Thanks for the information that an approach like  isn't possible.
 * (1) Regarding using different subdomains (, , etc.), that is certainly an option, but it would mean that each language version of the wiki would be completely independent, needs to be requested and created separately, etc.
 * (2) Like I said in my original comment, I see that there's another approach though: using mw:Extension:Translate to translate individual pages (I believe the translated pages are accessible as "subpages" of the original page in that case, which seems like it should be supported on Miraheze). My main question is: is this approach allowed or disallowed on Miraheze by any policy, given that the wiki's language is specified as English? I would also be interested in looking at examples of Miraheze-hosted wikis (apart from Meta, etc.) that are using mw:Extension:Translate to translate their content, if there are any.
 * All that said, I'm not exactly certain whether (1) or (2) is better for the wiki. Approach (2) seems to be easier to set up and add new languages, though. ImpliedMemory (talk) 13:05, 26 January 2023 (UTC)
 * is this approach allowed or disallowed on Miraheze by any policy, given that the wiki's language is specified as English
 * Not at all, you're free to do that.
 * Overall, using the Translate extension is much better than fragmenting yourself across multiple language wikis. I don't really know if any other wiki which uses the Translate extension but I do know that MediaWiki.org uses it which could be useful to analyze. Agent Isai  Talk to me! 13:08, 26 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Thanks! We'll try using the extension then. ImpliedMemory (talk) 16:23, 26 January 2023 (UTC)

How can I disable anonymous edits on my wiki?
Hi! I'm ShawnTehLogoBoi, owner of the Charactapedia reboot which is currently a work in progress. For this reboot, anonymous edits will not be allowed due to fears that anonymous users can vandalize this wiki. Since I'm the bureaucrat of this wiki, how can I disable anonymous edits? ShawnTehLogoBoi (talk) 22:48, 26 January 2023 (UTC)


 * Do not delete the '(everyone)' user group as suggested, this can cause significant issues later on.
 * Instead, there are two routes you can go:
 * Under Manage Additional Settings > Anti Spam, enable Email Confirm To Edit
 * This will require users to log in with email-verified accounts in order to edit the wiki
 * Alternatively, navigate to Manage Permissions > submitting the (everyone) group to modify and remove the Edit permission from this user group
 * If you go this route, make sure that the permission is present on the Users user group to ensure that logged in users (with or without email) can still edit.
 * --NotAracham (talk • contribs • global) 00:11, 27 January 2023 (UTC)
 * I will take the alternative route. First, I should go to Manage Permissions. What should I do next? ShawnTehLogoBoi (talk) 00:37, 27 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Navigate to Manage this wiki's Permissions
 * Set (everyone) under existing group to edit then click Submit
 * Under Assigned Permissions, uncheck Edit if it is currently present, then save changes
 * Navigate to Manage this wiki's Permissions
 * Set Users under existing group to edit then click Submit
 * Make sure that Edit is enabled under Assigned Permissions
 * If not, go to Unassigned Permissions and check the box for Edit, then save.
 * --NotAracham (talk • contribs • global) 00:58, 27 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Alrighty! Now anonymous users can't edit here! This is to help prevent vandalism on Charactapedia. I will continue to develop the reboot. Anyway, sayonara! ShawnTehLogoBoi (talk) 01:10, 27 January 2023 (UTC)


 * I really don't know how to explain this well but I found a way how to disable it.
 * First you go do manage the wiki’s permissions. Make sure you click “(everyone)” and submit it. Tutorial by Caramel.jpg
 * Now that you got it, click the delete section and delete the user group. Don't worry, this doesn't mean that users won’t edit the wiki, only anonymous users. Tutorial by Caramel 2.jpg
 * Hope this helps!

-- Financier (talk༆) 23:36, 26 January 2023 (UTC)


 * Please do not suggest deletion of groups, this should be done only as a last resort and can break extensions that rely on certain permission groups existing. --NotAracham (talk • contribs • global) 00:12, 27 January 2023 (UTC)

How can I import Google fonts to Charactapedia?
Hello again. I'm ShawnTehLogoBoi. I'm planning to add the Gill Sans font to the Charactapedia reboot. It should be noted that a few other wikis, like Trollpasta Wiki, have imported Google fonts onto their mainspace. An example of a font imported onto that wiki uses this text: (@import url('https://fonts.googleapis.com/css2?family=Acme&family=Balsamiq+Sans&family=Bebas+Neue&display=swap'). How can I import Google fonts to CP? ShawnTehLogoBoi (talk) 00:10, 29 January 2023 (UTC)


 * You should be able to copy their code and do the same. Once have the @import statement, all you have to do is define what CSS classes should use the font (i.e. normal text or only headers, etc.) Agent Isai  Talk to me! 05:06, 29 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Alright. First, for the Gill Sans font on googleapis, where should I find it? ShawnTehLogoBoi (talk) 15:02, 29 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Dang it, it didn't work. Is there an alternate way to import Google fonts to Charactapedia? ShawnTehLogoBoi (talk) 16:13, 29 January 2023 (UTC)

Revert to MediaWiki 1.38
I understand this is an extreme proposal (and, frankly, I'm not sure it's even possible), but 1.39 is just that broken I feel warranted to suggest it. Even beyond the atrocious new default style, several pieces of formatting just plain old do not work anymore. These include, dropdown bars on the side (when using older styles) and more. This was not ready for "stable" release and I think Miraheze should go back to and stay on 1.38 until this catastrophe is fixed. Agiletek (talk) 02:55, 29 January 2023 (UTC)


 * Part of our commitment, as laid out in our main page, is that we will always upgrade MediaWiki versions when possible. On top of that, as you stated, it is technically impossible to revert back to 1.38, doing so is literally impossible. If you have a specific bug you've encountered, please do tell us so we may forward this to the upstream developers of the extension (Tabber is not a Wikimedia extension so MediaWiki 1.39 itself isn't directly to blame for any bug). Agent Isai  Talk to me! 03:06, 29 January 2023 (UTC)
 * For one, the collapsed sidebars on allthetropes (such as Troping Utilities) no longer function, even when using a legacy style. I'm forced to use Timeless because it removes the collapsing and has it always expanded. Agiletek (talk) 05:52, 29 January 2023 (UTC)
 * That's one issue, Miraheze has bugs a lot that need to be fixed (and wikis sometimes cause those bugs too). Can you think of anything that might have been changed on allthetropes (CSS, JS, gadgets, etc.) that might have broken it? Collei (talk) 05:56, 29 January 2023 (UTC)
 * The upstream developer of CollapsibleVector has been notified. This is a bug due to the way MediaWiki 1.39 deals with skins. I hope it's fixed soon. Agent Isai  Talk to me! 06:14, 29 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Or maybe your best bet is to choose "Switch to old look" in the sidebar if your wiki uses Vector 2022 (or if you're a bureaucrat, choose "vector" in ManageWiki/settings → Styling → Default Skin)? --Routhwick (talk) 04:15, 11 February 2023 (UTC)

Adding stylized custom font for use in a wiki
Hi, I would like to ask how if I'm able to upload custom fonts to use in a wiki.

DataDump download files
I am trying to test if I can download my wiki at once with DataDump. text seems to work with xml but cannot figure out how to download all files (images) at once. DataDump/File request produces too litle file, whereas I have 1.5 MB in total.

Also, is it possible to download mywiki and open it locally with folder structure; that is; all pages in separate txt file and files linked to it.

Araz (talk) 12:01, 31 January 2023 (UTC)


 * Currently, DataDump cannot dump images, but SRE is working on possibly restoring that functionality. Unfortunately, since MediaWiki is dynamically generated, there's no way to view the page contents of your wiki without importing it into a MediaWiki instance. You can install XAMPP if you want to have a personal wiki on your computer. Make sure that Apache and MySQL are installed and enabled every time you want to run MediaWiki.

How can I hide the recent changes bar on pages in the Cosmos skin?
Hello once again! I'm ShawnTehLogoBoi, and this time, I want to hide the recent changes bar (which shows 4 recent edits) that is on the left of most of the pages. Note that Polandball Wiki has done the same thing. How can I do so? ShawnTehLogoBoi (talk) 13:42, 31 January 2023 (UTC)

Is there an easy way to have a navbox template auto generate from a list?
At the Simple Electronics Wiki main page is a section "List of topics" - actually six bulleted lists of links. A navbox template at the foot of the page has the same links.

Where the list has === topic === the navbox template has a group and where there's a link in a bulleted list the navbox template lists the same link, (but only the first one of that line).

How to easily auto-generate the navbox template from the list so that the two stay in sync? --Rob Kam (talk) 18:17, 31 January 2023 (UTC)


 * Automatic generation of the template isn't really a thing, but setting up a navbox template to use dynamic page lists (DPL) is possible.
 * It's off-miraheze, but the OpenSUSE wiki makes use of this functionality:
 * https://en.opensuse.org/index.php?title=Template:NavboxDPL&action=edit
 * https://en.opensuse.org/index.php?title=Template:Nvidia_navbox&action=edit
 * --NotAracham (talk • contribs • global) 19:19, 1 February 2023 (UTC)

why the purge action not worked
The questions are as follows: I don't know what caused it, because it was working until the Wiki database went down, and the refresh cache action no longer works.

This is a bad situation, which can cause the changed Wiki page to refresh a too many times (including Ctrl+Shift+R refresh), and the page content is still the previous version, which is extremely inconvenient for later maintenance. Sucrose Fans Rosalina129 20:32, 3 February 2023 (UTC)

Issues about "Mass edit using regular expressions"
Extension:MassEditRegex is far inferior to Extension:ReplaceText. Some issues: Any workaround or better alternatives? Thank you. Revival (talk) 21:00, 10 February 2023 (UTC)
 * 1) There is no way to search and edit all pages (e.g. in Main namespace).
 * 2) The option "Page name prefixes (edit pages having names beginning with this text)" is completely broken. For example input "Friend" but it fails to find the page "Friendship".
 * 3) Preview is limited to the first 20 matches. It shows pages even if it matches nothing. Extension:ReplaceText only lists the pages with match(es).
 * 4) Unlike Extension:ReplaceText, you could not fine-tune and select which parts to apply edits. It must be all or none.
 * Oh, that's a good question. I also face some of the above issues when I try to use this extension. However, the ReplaceText has shut down in ManageWiki's extensions list. What happened?
 * ReplaceText is incompatible with wikis (or entire farms in Miraheze's case) with $wgCompressRevisions turned on. See T10185, T10227, and T10240. --Routhwick (talk) 15:08, 12 February 2023 (UTC)
 * But ... When will this extension be revived? Some popular wikis use it anyway!

Also, some volunteers say they are exploring how to make a patch to let ReplaceText work even if the CompressRevisions is set to true. Has the patch been done?

Clear notification for deleted wiki
3 months ago I forgot to mark a notification from Qualitipedia as read. Now, after enabling cross-wiki notifications, I'm stuck with it. How do I mark it as read?

 * Hi @Aaron Liu, you can mark the notification as read by going to Special:Notifications and clicking on the wiki source in the left-hand sidebar.

However, I am wondering is there any way to change some fo the presentation/styling of how the PDF displays on the page via css (or some other method)? I am hoping to do things like changes the default background color, border/margin width, etc. for the display window the PDF is in. Ideally do things like make the background white like the page body, add a rounded border radius to the frame, etc. Thanks in advance. – Mitchell Gore (talk) 01:21, 10 February 2023 (UTC)

Formatting and/or CSS styling for Module documentation pages
I have been scrapping a bunch of Modules from Wikipedia, to bold-out a lot of compatible content compatibility for some scrapped content, and I was wondering how I can go about setting up the formatting and CSS styling for Module documentation subpages so they render properly (i.e. like standard documentation pages) when viewed on their corresponding Module page(s)? – Mitchell Gore (talk) 03:24, 18 February 2023 (UTC) Mitchell Gore (talk) 03:24, 18 February 2023 (UTC)

Can't upload font, even with tff uploading enabled and "Ignore any warnings" checked
Hi, I'm trying to upload a font to a wiki of mine, but I'm getting an error when doing so. Upon pressing the "Upload file" button, instead of the file being uploaded, an error appears, reading: 'File extension ".ttf" does not match the detected MIME type of the file (font/sfnt).' This occurs even if "Ignore any warnings" is checked. What should I do to get around this? Realicraft (talk) 12:19, 22 February 2023 (UTC)

 * I'm not sure what you're asking. Could you provide a link to the page you want to access? Collei (talk) 19:20, 25 February 2023 (UTC)
