Mainpage welcome and FAQ
Hi, as I might not get on IRC today I am writing here. I think for the "welcome Mainpage" we should in the future include a request feature link and possibly stewards noticeboard. And I am currently working on a FAQ. --Reception123 (talk) 02:48, 7 August 2015 (EDT)

Wiki request
Holy hell you guys have out don yourselves! I love Special:RequestWiki and Special:RequestWikiQueue. Looking awesome! NDKilla (talk) 07:40, 7 August 2015 (EDT)

Admin
Hi, I would also like to help out with abuse filters/possibly protecting and other stuff. Could I please have temporary admin? --Reception123 (talk) 00:02, 10 August 2015 (EDT)

Hey
Hello! I see you are the guys who left Orain; its me the owner of that national wiki which was on Orain once.--Kaiser (talk) 15:39, 12 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Hi! Southparkfan (talk) 15:40, 12 September 2015 (UTC)
 * How come you guys split up?--Kaiser (talk) 15:52, 12 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Long story. If you come to IRC I can likely tell you more about it. Southparkfan (talk) 16:03, 12 September 2015 (UTC)
 * kk. By the way, where do I download IRC?--Kaiser (talk) 16:04, 12 September 2015 (UTC)
 * IRC try the webchat. Southparkfan (talk) 16:05, 12 September 2015 (UTC)

Orain dumps
Hey! Do you have the Orain backups? Would you be able to do me a huge favor and import degu.orain.org to degu.miraheze.org? Octodon (talk) 16:31, 23 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Sure. Please first request a wiki. Southparkfan (talk) 16:36, 23 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Wiki already exists here Reception123  (talk) ( contribs  ) 16:36, 23 September 2015 (UTC)

User:Southparkfan/Translate
Is this a test? Could you delete it or at least unmark it for translation so that translators don't get confused. Thanks, Wynter (talk) 03:35, 26 September 2015 (UTC)

Fiala1 lies
His replies are nonsense and totally delusional. Rightpedia was a harcore-Nazi holocaust denier site that even attached a "J" sign next to people (on entries) who were Jewish and called them parasites. Fiala1 is also an ex-sysop on the white supremacist site Metapedia called Hu1. His posts are logged there going back to 2008, including hundreds of posts of extreme anti-Semitism and race hatred. There is nothing "family orientated" or "pro-God" about his views whatsoever.

^ You will note his account says banned at Metapedia (if you search for it). This is because his anti-Semitism was considered even too extreme for Metapedia (which is a neo-Nazi site itself) but it tries to have a wider appeal so it tones it down. Hu1 and the other banned Metapedia sysops left to set up rightpedia - these are people not interested in even trying to moderate their racism. They just openly post crude images likening blacks to apes, or Jews to rats. Rightpedia's entry on "miscegenation" categorized mixed-marriages the same as paedophilia (see: screenshot). This is why these Metapedia users were banned in the first place - they were considered too extreme and crazy for the average-joe white supremacist. And yet, Hu1 will sit there and describe himself bizarrely as a man of god, with family values and even a non-racist. The latter has caused him to be labelled a troll across the web.

My talk page
I do not want to see smearing and cursing on my discussion page. If you want to see it, please move it elsewhere. Fiala (talk) 18:56, 1 October 2015 (UTC)

An other Orain backup request
I was running a wiki on Orain and I hope so you can recover it. Please recover this site:

szk.orain.org to szk.miraheze.org

Thanks a lot! --Lalo5555 (talk) 21:23, 2 October 2015 (UTC)

Editing Error
When I try to delete outdated thread posts, I'm redirected to this error page: https://allthetropes.miraheze.org/w/index.php?title=Thread:Talk:Complete_Monster/Kirby/%22Examples%22_that_should_NOT_be_seen_here./reply&action=delete It says I'm not an admin and thus cannot do that, and my username is now "Lee M." What is going on here?
 * Hi, I guess Redis, our object caching software had some issues again. Please let me know if you still experience this issue. Southparkfan (talk) 06:53, 29 October 2015 (UTC)

How can I add MediaWiki extensions to my wiki?
I'd like the templates in my wiki (Luismark Wiki) were easy to code as in Wikipedia, using the Scribunto extension.
 * Request features. I've enabled Scribunto on your wiki now, though. Southparkfan (talk) 10:20, 14 November 2015 (UTC)

Wiki not yet created
Help ! My wiki est not yet created ; is there something missing in the request ? Il will be a private wiki about the french rail network. See Special:RequestWikiQueue/199. Thanks... ! Babskwal (talk) 09:49, 23 November 2015 (UTC)
 * Good morning and many thanks ! Babskwal (talk) 06:53, 24 November 2015 (UTC)

My return
Hello,

I would like to say sorry for not being on here in a couple of months. I have become extremely busy due to school, and I will again after this week for end of course testing and finals.--Kaiser (talk) 14:58, 24 November 2015 (UTC)
 * Nothing that requires you to be here every day, right? School is very important :) Southparkfan (talk) 15:06, 24 November 2015 (UTC)
 * You're right. By the way, may you ignore my stewards' noticeboard post. I'd like to request for the deletion of this account and any wikis hosted under it. I've gotten too busy these days. Maybe one day I'll return.--Kaiser (talk) 15:20, 24 November 2015 (UTC)
 * It's impossible to delete user accounts. While I could delete your wikis, I see no reason to. Southparkfan (talk) 16:00, 24 November 2015 (UTC)

Subpages
Hoi Southparkfan,

Ik vroeg me af of de subpages nog op jouw actielijst staan? Zie https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Request_features#Part-up_.28Status:_Open.29. Er is geen haast bij, dus neem vooral je tijd :-) Misschien dat je kunt aangeven wanneer je het ongeveer kunt uitvoeren. Misschien dat je ook nog onvoldoende informatie hebt omdat ik niet weet wat namespaces zijn.

Met vriendelijke groet,

Tim Ruijters, Timboliu999 (talk) 20:14, 26 November 2015 (UTC)

How to add an email adresse to a user's account ?
I, as an administrator, can I do it ? He could receive a new password (lost)... Babskwal (talk) 14:28, 30 November 2015 (UTC)

Please make the wiki stop caching scripts
It's a nightmare. D4rkst4r (talk) 19:06, 30 November 2015 (UTC)
 * Please explain which scripts are being cached? Southparkfan (talk) 19:49, 30 November 2015 (UTC)
 * All the ones on pages on d4rkst4r.miraheze.org. Even the user page scripts are being cached and can't be purged.  D4rkst4r (talk) 22:16, 30 November 2015 (UTC)

I made a support forum
http://miraheze.lefora.com/ You and any other sysops from the Meta Wiki can be mods there. D4rkst4r (talk) 00:26, 5 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Looks nice! However, even if we would use a forum (we prefer that all communication goes via IRC or wiki, and if desired, mailing lists), we'd install the forum software ourselves (so we can host it at https://forum.miraheze.org/ and ensure only authorized staff has control to user/private data!). We want to keep the usage of third-party services to a minimum.
 * If the community wants a forum, then I'll install one and I'll use your nice forum as a base for it. Southparkfan (talk) 10:34, 5 December 2015 (UTC)

Being politically incorrect and making fun of people
Here's my own take on the rules that I will enforce on my wikis:
 * No promoting harassment or contributing to online bullying.
 * No personal information that endangers anyone's safety. (Addresses, phone numbers)
 * Political incorrectness can be used sparingly. It can have a place but it's my observation that people who rely on it are have a lot of repressed intolerance and hatred.

Is this consistent with what's expected of wikis here? D4rkst4r (talk) 02:47, 20 December 2015 (UTC)
 * I believe that yes, your policy is similar to meta, therefore is good. Reception123  (talk) ( contribs  ) 06:46, 20 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Not commenting related to any sort of elevated permissions but as a normal user, I think as long as you follow global policies (which aren't that restrictive) you should be fine. You can choose to place whatever restrictions on your users as you want, and they can choose to leave if they don't like it. Personally I think those are good guidelines :) -- Cheers, NDKilla ( Talk • Contribs ) 23:20, 20 December 2015 (UTC)

Deleting wikis
The steps you listed for deleting a wiki can be seen here. I just tried to do that for empty set wiki, and found out that I don't have write access to /srv/mediawiki/dblist/*, so I closed the wiki along with two other wikis (as logged here). Note that I still want emptysetwiki deleted, and the other two saved (for now) but closed. -- Cheers, NDKilla ( Talk • Contribs ) 02:08, 16 January 2016 (UTC)

"" (emptyset.miraheze.org)
Please drop the database "emptysetwiki" I founded the wiki and never used it. I added the wiki to deleted.dblist, ran /extensions/MirahezeMagic/maintenance/removeDeletedWikis.php --wiki metawiki, then manually deleted the cw_wikis entries. -- Cheers, NDKilla ( Talk • Contribs ) 16:44, 18 January 2016 (UTC)
 * ✅ -- Cheers, NDKilla ( Talk • Contribs ) 18:32, 18 January 2016 (UTC)

Games Wiki (games.miraheze.org)
Please drop the database "gameswiki" per User:SleepyMode's request. 5 local users, Sleepy was the only one with any rights. Added the wiki to deleted.dblist, ran removeDeletedWikis.php --wiki metawiki, then manually deleted the cw_wikis entries. Confirmed wiki 404ing :p -- Cheers, NDKilla ( Talk • Contribs ) 17:00, 18 January 2016 (UTC)
 * ✅ -- Cheers, NDKilla ( Talk • Contribs ) 18:32, 18 January 2016 (UTC)

Deletion on the wiki games.miraheze.org
This wiki won't be active, its my wiki and I rather abandon I just cant handle two wikis now. SleepyMode 16:49, 18 January 2016 (UTC)
 * ✅ earlier -- Cheers, NDKilla ( Talk • Contribs ) 18:32, 18 January 2016 (UTC)

Special:CentralAuth/NDTest2 throws MWExceptions
Topic pretty much says all I know right now. At school but can't debug. I've been noticing lots of CentralAuth issues lately. >~< at least little annoyances. -- Cheers, NDKilla ( Talk • Contribs ) 15:22, 20 January 2016 (UTC)
 * Not anymore? SleepyMode (talk) 14:52, 9 April 2016 (UTC)

Custom domains
Might be a dumb question but.. does it require you to have purchased a custom domain before it can host Miraheze? Or can Miraheze create its own domain? What if I want something like yourproject.wiki (Creative Commons owns .wiki), could you provide me with that? I know Wiki.Wiki does but it appears to be abandoned, or at least doesn't create new wikis anymore. Thanks for your attention. ZenSwordz (talk) 16:10, 24 May 2016 (UTC)
 * We automatically assign (wikiid).miraheze.org for most of the wikis, but if you purchase your own domain (we can do DNS stuff for you) and you buy the SSL/TLS Certificate, we are more than happy to set a custom domain on your server. &mdash; revi  17:56, 24 May 2016 (UTC)
 * How much would that cost? ZenSwordz (talk) 16:10, 24 May 2016 (UTC)
