WHEN I TRY TO CHANGE THE WIKI ICON THE SETTINGS RESET
WHEN I TRY TO CHANGE THE ICON (OR ANY OTHER SETTINGS) FOR MY WIKI, ONCE I SAVE THE SETTINGS AND RELOAD THE PAGE, THEY RESET :( Ghostie222 (talk) 05:53, 23 August 2022 (UTC)

Fair dealing
I think there need to be a page on fair dealing because there's a new notice that notifies that in UK (Miraheze is based in said country), the country goes by fair dealing whereas for Americans like me we're used to fair use. From what I've gathered in this Wikipedia article, fair dealing applies to non-commercial study and research, though it has a limited application to things such as software & has to show how it applies. I run several video game-related wikis that use a lot of images that would, under U.S. law, qualify as fair use & need them to show how various character artwork, game screenshots, sprites, and so forth look like. My personal guess is that uploading media without caption or context is a violation of fair dealing, although I always strive to do add them for proper documentation.

Does anyone have any input on this? I feel there needs to be a user-friendly list of examples of what is allowed and what is not allowed. I think I'm okay, but a fair dealing page here would help minimize the risk of violating fair dealing, especially at the risk of wiki closure. Bawitdaba (talk) 12:48, 16 September 2022 (UTC)


 * This is something that should be included in a primer about how UK copyright law applies to Miraheze, in my opinion. "Fair Dealing" in the UK is different from "Fair Dealing" in Canada or "Fair Use" in the USA, so having a quick explanation and a short list of common cases would be useful. --Robkelk (talk) 13:12, 16 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Yes -- I have stated to others before that I have set up U.S. fair use templates on my wiki before, although I've manually readded the UK fair dealing in my custom MediaWiki:Uploadtext notices, so there would be a bit of conflict.
 * I have wondered if the wikis I run recognize U.S. fair use while acknowledging that the host itself recognizes UK fair dealing due to being hosted within the UK, meaning that there cannot be conflict between the two & that fair dealing overrides fair use due to, again, where the location is hosted. If this is allowed I'd update the MediaWiki:Uploadtext notices accordingly. Perhaps I'd add that extra notice in Project:Copyrights because legal people are not likely to check Special:Upload Bawitdaba (talk) 13:48, 16 September 2022 (UTC)
 * The issue is quite complex since the UK only has case law about fair dealing but no statutory/clear definition of what it is. The best guide can be found on the UK Government webiste. While it may sound very vague it seems the main question is really just whether the use of the file in such a way is fair. While this isn't a legal opinion, I'd probably guess it can't be too far from the US definition of fair use (even though it is probably a bit stricter). Reception123 (talk) ( C ) 07:23, 17 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Would I be allowed to use U.S. fair use licensing templates on my wikis? I just ask because it would take all day for me to replace all of it to say "fair dealing." I can say in Project:Copyrights, MediaWiki:Uploadtext that although copyrighted files recognized under fair use, it cannot conflict with fair dealing due to Miraheze being based in the UK.

I'd like my account deleted (I'll explain why)
Hello. I was a former editor on the Miraheze "reception wikis", which consist of which are the best and worst. The negative ones are in particular controversial (which I won't explain), so I'd like my account to at least be deleted. I cannot change my username, I'd rather have it disappear until I can make a new one. I'm telling this mainly due to bad memories and regretting my contributions there, thank you! WannurSyafiqah74 (talk) 15:53, 18 September 2022 (UTC)

Date-Based Content?
Me again. Where would I look for help on inserting date-based content on the home page? Like, a 'this day in history' box or a 'it's such-and-such character's birthday!' box. It's hard to phrase this in searches because I just end up getting results for adding different types of date formatting. Do I have to cook up some forbidden magic or do I just not know the right official term to search? (getting a random page of the day is not the function I'm looking for with this question, but if that exists I'd like to know about it too) Chantolove (talk) 21:02, 20 September 2022 (UTC)

Request for Feedback: making syntax highlighting enabled by default
While visiting a few new wikis I noticed that syntax highlighting is not enabled by default. It's a really helpful tool that's also standard for most code editing software, which can help avoid simple syntax errors and make editing easier. And because it features a toggle, it can be easily disabled if anyone prefers to not use it at any time. Advantages of having syntax highlighting by default:
 * It would make the source editor (and code editors) more accessible to beginner wiki editors, who might not even be aware it exists in the first place.
 * People who migrate from Fandom and are yet to learn about ManageWiki would expect for this feature to be enabled by default. This would make it more intuitive for them.
 * Marking it as default would make it more widespread on new wikis. It would be beneficial for editors who edit multiple wikis, and frequently use the multi-select feature the syntax highlighting enables.

Because syntax highlighting for wikitext and CSS/JS/Lua are handled by two different extensions (CodeMirror and CodeEditor respectively), I made a proposal for each.

Note: I was told those extensions may have an impact on performance and to mention in this post.  Xena  (talk)  22:12, 20 September 2022 (UTC)

Issues with ProofreadPage and displaying transcribed books
I am hoping someone can provide some information regarding this issue, which I only noticed because I wanted to start up my transcribing projects again after a lengthy break.

I use the ProofreadPage extension and this has worked well in the past. Now there are missing tabs (previous, next and image tabs) and the side by side text and image page is now missing the image from the .djvu file as seen here on this random page Page:The_British_Blockade.djvu/12.

In addition to this, when all these pages are transcribed, they spliced together to form a complete document using the  tag, such as: But, I keep getting an error: Error:No such file as seen on this page The British Blockade

Can someone shed some light if this has something to do with the latest updates causing this problem. If this no longer works, there has been a lot of transcribing work in the past wasted.

Thanks for any advice. 10:15, 22 September 2022 (UTC)

Adding CSS Page Doesn't Work?

 * Hi @Chantolove. Sorry you're having so much trouble with this. The CSS you're trying to use relies on the TemplateStyles extension. This can be enabled at [ Special:ManageWiki/extensions]. In order to change the content model of the page, you'll first need to assign the  permission to the proper group for your wiki. You can do this with Special:ManageWiki/permissions. Once you have done this, the content model may be changed at Special:ChangeContentModel/Template:Divbox/styles.css. Happy editing!  dross  (t • c • g) 07:19, 26 September 2022 (UTC)


 * As Wikipedia has millions of pages, its templates are complex to accommodate all the needs. As your wiki will use it the same way, a basic system can be used:

 * create Template:Divbox/styles.css (as I use Lua → Module:Divbox/styles and Module:Divbox for the switch)
 * My alternative → Test Wiki PercyUK (talk) 17:17, 26 September 2022 (UTC)

Are reception wikis banned from being created?

 * No but they are subject to higher scrutiny due to the nature of them. Direct recreations of closed reception wikis are not allowed at the moment as they'd constitute a direct fork of a project which is prohibited by the Content Policy. Agent Isai  Talk to me! 13:23, 27 September 2022 (UTC)

 * Just realized The New Reception Wiki is now banned/closed. So I believe they are actually banned from Miraheze... Nidoking (talk) 12:46, 29 September 2022 (UTC)
 * It was closed by Reception123 for being mostly a clone of Qualitipedia's content, not necessarily because it was a reception wiki. ZeusDeeGoose (talk) 13:23, 29 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Indeed, ZeusDeeGoose is right. Creating reception wikis is not banned. Creating clones/forks of the ones that were closed following a community vote is however not allowed because they are direct forks of those wikis and that is not allowed by the Content Policy. Do note that that was the will of the Qualitipedia network/community. The only way the content from these wikis can be revived on Miraheze is either waiting until the other ones are permanently deleted or creating a new RfC which has already been tried and has been rejected. New reception wikis are allowed but the same exact content being copied isn't. Reception123 (talk) ( C ) 13:27, 29 September 2022 (UTC)

Qualitipedia topic ban and user conduct
It has become clear since the announcement of the closure of Qualitipedia on Miraheze that many Qualitipedia community members continue to maintain a strong attachment to the projects. Unfortunately, through several warnings, Blubabluba9990 has continued to insist that the closure be overturned and/or Qualitipedia users be allowed to create forks or clones of existing Qualitipedia projects. This extreme attachment, while not inherently disruptive, have become not only annoying, but disruptive from this user. Blubabluba9990 has also consistently refused to take a wikibreak.

Some users have also responded to this behavior inappropriately. I am proposing that the community impose appropriate bans for these users to ensure collaborative community interactions between users and topics. dross (t • c • g) 04:22, 2 October 2022 (UTC)

Proposal 1 (Qualitipedia topic ban for Blubabluba9990)

Whether they establish a reception wiki outside of Miraheze is their decision (and perhaps their burden to bear if drama follows them there, they lose respect from others who agreed to the closures, etc.).

Comments (1)

 * 1) The big problem is that I think this preceeds having a proper meta admin step-in to say 'woah cool off' and warning to minimize the issue. We're going from no warning to high community sanction. I'd like to see that warning take place, only then followed by topic bans - especially since a large portion of the comments are taking place on Bluba and Fatburn's talk pages, which should be entirely acceptable. That said I'm not fond of when it spills to central noticeboards. But again, that's where the warning/advisory comes in first. I do understand the frustration that made this come about. --Raidarr (talk) 13:29, 2 October 2022 (UTC)

 * 2) I will second above as Bluba is not present on any of the mentioned places and never struck me as willing to reach out to them. For phabricator especially it would be just plain off topic to be an issue and can be handled normally. --Raidarr (talk) 13:29, 2 October 2022 (UTC)

 * 1)  The only contributions of TF3RDL on Meta have been to antagonize Blubabluba9990, and are primarily speaking on missing authority and extremely out of turn.Examples: 1 2 3 4  dross  (t • c • g) 04:22, 2 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Now I realize that my interactions with Bluba is very disruptive (mini-modding, comparing him to a MOAB Glue and unnecessarily requesting for global ban on him), which is inconsistent with WP:DENY. Because of this, I will accept indefinite partial blocks (preventing me from editing his talk page). TF3RDL (talk &#124; contribs &#124; FANDOM &#124; Wikipedia) 11:17, 2 October 2022 (UTC)
 * 1)  This whole debacle between him and Bluba is getting out of hand beyond any reasonable doubt here. --DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) (contribs) 11:37, 2 October 2022 (UTC)

 * 4)  Per above  in preferring a proper oversight warning, and since the initial pushback TF3 has toned down his approach. However he's gone an extra mile overall and I am somewhat concerned. This would be a reasonable step. --Raidarr (talk)
 * 5)  From what I've seen of the beef between these two, this has gotten out of hand. A topic ban should suffice. Marxo Grouch  (talk) 14:44, 2 October 2022 (UTC)
 * 1)  He has tried to bet Bluba blocked numerous times, even making a RfC just to ban him. He crossed the line when he told everyone he deserved to be blocked when the topic was about HIS YOUTUBE CHANNEL, that it forced me to tell him to stop. With this, it's better if they stay apart.
