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)

CheckUser request
Hello, can you please CheckUser the user “fuckyoucrazyblox”? I need the IP addresses for future reference. Thx

Incubator request
Please add the following new entry to the local Interwiki map of [//incubator.miraheze.org Incubator Plus 2.0]:, mapping to  , with no forwarding or transclusion. Thanks. StevenJ81 (talk) 20:21, 15 August 2018 (UTC)

 * That was fast. Thank you! StevenJ81 (talk) 20:46, 15 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)
 * I would also like to have "ウソペディア物置分室 (the junkyard of Usopedia)" exempted from the dormancy policy, because the wiki is a subproject of Usopedia, but are unlikely to be edited unless there are articles that should be moved to the junkyard. The URL of the wiki is:
 * https://usopediajunkyard.miraheze.org
 * Thanks again.-- 14:50, 25 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Should have gotten to this sooner, but ✅. -- Void  Whispers 17:43, 26 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Thanks :)-- 05:23, 27 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
 * My two cents, if you do not feel the community's internal disciplinary procedures or protocol for dealing with cases like these, we encourage you to send an email to the CoC Commission (see Reception's message above) so that we (the CoC Commission members) may take a look! &#32; Miraheze Logo.svg CnocBride | Talk | Contribs  16:32, 23 August 2018 (UTC)

Rename me!
Hello. Please rename me if can to Viewpedia. Thank you. علیرضا ایوز (talk) 16:06, 23 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Please use the special page designed for this process, Special:GlobalRenameRequest. Reception123 (talk) ('C' ) 16:28, 23 August 2018 (UTC)
 * That special page only works if the user has a verified email address set in their preferences. They can’t use it if they don’t. Amanda Catherine (talk) 16:30, 23 August 2018 (UTC)
 * ✅ John (talk) 16:07, 25 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Thank you.

Removal of bureaucrat right from プログラマリオ on Unpedia
Since he (I know it's a he) has blocked himself after shifting the user rights to me and Napoleon VIII, I would like to have his bureaucrat right removed. Though there are as many as eight wikis where he has taken such actions, for now, I'd like to request for the removal only for Unpedia, because other wikis are still in the same group, "Ourmedia," but Unpedia has left the group. Thanks.-- 14:47, 25 August 2018 (UTC)
 * ✅ John (talk) 16:07, 25 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Thanks as always :)-- 19:19, 25 August 2018 (UTC)

CMGIWIKI except from dorman policy
Hi staff miraheze

I have wiki that name is cmgi wiki, I want to input mywiki to except dorman list. I think I can contribute far with miraheze, and if I made mistake, please correct me. Cheers. Cmg (talk) 10:01, 26 August 2018 (UTC)
 * You need a reason to make it exempted (such as: read by many people, time-based, etc.). Otherwise, your request will be treated as "invalid".-- 10:38, 26 August 2018 (UTC)
 * I'm sorry I newbie in here, mywiki have potential for read by many people, so if it closed and rise the warn, it could make the people comeout from my wiki. Thanks for attention. Cmg (talk) 10:50, 26 August 2018 (UTC)
 * TBH, I don't think so, because your wikis are both private (which only permitted members can see).-- 13:18, 26 August 2018 (UTC)

Help me import
Hello can you please import infobox template and relevant templates? I have hard time doing it. Delete template infobox and relevant templates then export again thx
 * Please see User:Void/Infoboxes. You are simply missing a few pages you need. -- Void  Whispers 02:36, 29 August 2018 (UTC)

Speaking of editors on mobile
Speaking of Wikipedia, in which normal editing screens (non-courier) redirect to the courier editor, how do I recreate that one? For example if I edit a template on Wikipedia but takes me to the normal editor on mobile without the courier one it automatically redirects me to the courier editor. How to recreate that?

Spamming IP
202.126.127.114 has triggered global filter 18 and a global block may be necessary in this case. Pkbwcgs (talk) 11:01, 31 August 2018 (UTC)

Abuse Log false positive?
Apparently, it says in the abuse log that User:InternetArchiveBot has triggered the abuse filter. Is it a false positive or is it real? It is a bot. Pkbwcgs (talk) 19:21, 31 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Technically yes, but also the filter is doing exactly what it should be doing. That being said, I'll see about adding a few exemptions to the filter. -- Void  Whispers 19:26, 31 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Okay. Pkbwcgs (talk) 19:27, 31 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Yes. Say hello to Miraheze's newest bot.  It will primarily operate on the other wikis as provided they approve it.— CYBERPOWER  ( Chat ) 21:33, 31 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Nice. Pkbwcgs (talk) 07:01, 1 September 2018 (UTC)
