Something wrong on the Forums

Today I got a message from someone on the forums and in the message box under the logo it says My Messages [1] and I replied to it already, it keeps saying I have a new message and there is none. The My Messages [1] won't ever change. I don't know what is wrong, can you help me? Fuzzy in New Super Mario Bros. UYoshiGo99Artwork of a Yoshi egg on a tilt. It is unknown whether this artwork was released with a certain game or not.

Dynamic Page Lists

They are gone.
Now since you've deleted (or was it because or MediaWiki uppdate?) some articles, including MarioWiki pages are now left with "Invalid tag extension name: dpl". Examples: Super Mario World (television series), MarioWiki:Personal Check/Personal Images. I hope you'll reinstall it. SWFlashSWFlash.svg

It wasn't working after the update and was a little too heavy on the database. Let's see how we do without it. --Steve (talk) Get Firefox 10:05, 19 August 2011 (EDT)
So, is there any hope that it will return? I'm asking, because Help:DPL is linked from most of the talk pages from welcome template, as well as being mentioned on Help:Contents. SWFlashSWFlash.svg
I've removed those links. I'd really love for us to work around not having it so we don't need to add it again. --Steve (talk) Get Firefox 11:17, 19 August 2011 (EDT)
Also broken stuff: MarioWiki:Changing username, MarioWiki:Pipe Plaza. Link that needs to be deleted: MarioWiki:Rules. Also, the Help:DPL needs to be either deleted or marked as "doesn't work anymore". SWFlashSWFlash.svg

Thumbnails

It seems the thumbnail for some of the large images (ex: this and one of the revision of this) does not display correctly. Mind investigating that? --Glowsquid 13:40, 20 August 2011 (EDT)

I decided to revert back to using the MediaWiki default maximum image area for creating thumbnails: 12.5 million pixels or about 3500x3500. Reasoning is that this puts less of a strain on the server, and it's not like we're using images anywhere near this size on the actual article pages. I'll help resize and reupload. --Steve (talk) Get Firefox 14:33, 20 August 2011 (EDT)
I was wondering why the 4000x4000 pixel images that I uploaded two months back were having thumbnail errors today. At least I now know why that is. RedYoshiMK7Signature.png M&SG (talk) 17:32, 20 August 2011 (EDT)

Question

How did you get this whole (awesome) Porplemontage Enterprises idea? I'm curious. WikiofSmash"The EarthBounder" 20:02, 20 August 2011 (EDT)

Well, I started picking up wikis with the formation of NIWA and wikis jumping ship from Wikia (as you know). "Porplemontage Enterprises" is just what I decided to call my collection of wikis since I wanted something like a portfolio to throw up on my porplemontage.com website. --Steve (talk) Get Firefox 20:32, 20 August 2011 (EDT)

Please, don't erase the article named Wario enemies! I know that there exist a category about this, but I want to make an article! -- Super Radio 07:47, 21 January 2012 (EST)

Minor question.

Did you updated the wiki? Looks like the parameter cellspacing of the tables isn't working (unfortunately, that's the only error I've seen for now) and the galleries are no longer centered... do we have to center the galleries manually? Another question: why the collapsible boxes of my userpage doen't work? well, they do work only when I log in but not if I log out... is it posible to fix that? ¢oincollctor rsitem209.png

I don't know why cellspacing wouldn't be working now; maybe you could link me to an example on that? The galleries would need the center tag to be centered, see Gallery:Super Mario Galaxy 2 vs. Gallery:Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story. I fixed your collapsible stuff; it was a matter of clearing the cache for that page. --Steve (talk) Get Firefox 01:47, 22 August 2011 (EDT)

Oh, wait... I think I see the problem of the cellspacing. It seems that the thumbnail thing of the images inside the tables show them like that. No problem, I'll fix it myself and as for the collapsible tables in my userpage, thanks. ¢oincollctor rsitem209.png

Userpage help

Hi, I'm Pichi-Hime6, I just became Autoconfirmed yesterday,
and I would like some help with my userpage. I have no idea how
to edit it, upload a picture, create a userebox tower, ect.
I've tried looking on all the Help pages for that stuff, but I
just can't seem to be able to do anything. --That's Bohogos 16:18, 25 September 2011 (EDT)

I couldn't explain a given topic better than the help pages already do. Click on your username, add text, and save. View the source of other userpages for an idea of how to do stuff like userbox towers. The file upload link is in the toolbox on the sidebar, and it's pretty self-explanatory: browse for a file and hit upload. --Steve (talk) Get Firefox 21:39, 25 September 2011 (EDT)

Wiki

Hey, I was wondering, how do you create a non-Wikia wiki and put it in the NIWA? I want to create a Yoshi Wiki. PikaSamus (talk)

Please answer. PikaSamus (talk)

You need to buy a domain name, acquire web hosting, and install MediaWiki. Google search those three things and you'll have more than enough info to get started. Once your wiki has been around for a while with a healthy set of editors, you may apply to NIWA. Since this wiki covers Yoshi, I will have the final say on whether you may join. So you might want to get on my good side. --Steve (talk) Get Firefox 22:02, 26 October 2011 (EDT)

Maintenance Issue

  • Sorry to bother you, but there's a problem that I found while checking the list of double redirects. I saw that the 8-bit Club redirects to 8 bits, which redirects to 8 Bits, but for some reason, whenever I try to fix up the 8-bit Club redirect, the wiki acts like that article doesn't exist.

Preview thumbnail images

Hello Steve. Is there a way to turn off seeing the preview thumbnail images that appear in the image page? For instance, whenever I go into an image page like this, I can see a set of preview images at the bottom. Is there any way I can disable them? --RAP.pngRAP... 05:35, 30 October 2011 (EDT)

The file history thumbnails? --Steve (talk) Get Firefox 05:40, 30 October 2011 (EDT)
Yes. --RAP.pngRAP... 05:45, 30 October 2011 (EDT)
The best you could do is hide them with CSS such as
table.filehistory img {
	display: none;
}

--Steve (talk) Get Firefox 05:49, 30 October 2011 (EDT)

No way to make the option user-friendly? It would be useful to those who don't want to waste bandwidth due to bandwidth caps. Anyway, gonna plug this thing. --RAP.pngRAP... 05:52, 30 October 2011 (EDT)

The hidden image will probably still be downloaded; the CSS is just hiding it. I don't think those little thumbs are killing anyone bandwidth-wise. --Steve (talk) Get Firefox 06:05, 30 October 2011 (EDT)

How can you tell Steve? --RAP.pngRAP... 06:08, 30 October 2011 (EDT)

They are about 20 KB each on that page. I hope you don't accidentally click on the 5.44MB image, since it's equivalent to 278 of those 20KB thumbnails. You visit more image pages than anyone else. It's not something a general user would need. We have a small percentage of users who visit a ton of image pages time a small percentage of users who even have to worry about bandwidth times the fact that the thumbs are small to begin with. And you better use them to compare images since if you click on an image you're throwing any bandwidth savings from hiding the thumbnails out the window. --Steve (talk) Get Firefox 06:21, 30 October 2011 (EDT)

Probably not so - since I'm not an admin anymore, I can't really delete those duplicate images (assuming that most of them are duplicates). Seriously, 278 thumbnails? With the stuff you said, you observe all that data with Google Analytics? --RAP.pngRAP... 06:53, 30 October 2011 (EDT)
No, just division. --Steve (talk) Get Firefox 14:37, 30 October 2011 (EDT)

Broken Redirects

  • I recently ran into a good deal of redirects that are broken, but they require Sysop assistance to fix. The broken redirects seem to be related to the double redirect issue that I told you about earlier; the one relating to Chris Helper's user page sub-pages. RedYoshiMK7Signature.png M&SG (talk) 07:53, 2 November 2011 (EDT)
It's because you can't edit his userspace. --Steve (talk) Get Firefox 10:20, 2 November 2011 (EDT)
I'm aware of that, which is why I asked you to handle that request. RedYoshiMK7Signature.png M&SG (talk) 08:17, 3 November 2011 (EDT)
Next time just say it's in the userspace. Calling it a "double redirect issue" makes it sound like an actual problem. It's expected that you can't edit his userspace. --Steve (talk) Get Firefox 11:16, 3 November 2011 (EDT)

Template:Foreignname

Hello Porplemontage. Nintendo of Europe confirmed Mario Kart 7 will get a Dutch, Portuguese and Russian translation. These three languages need to be put in the Template:Foreignname. Dutch and Portuguese are already in the template, but Russian isn't. Because you protected the page it's impossible for me to edit it (I'm a patroller). Could you please add Russian to the template? Could you also change the order, so Portuguese comes behind Italian and Russian behind Portuguese? Thank you.

Userspace

  • Some more userspace maintenance issues have popped up, that may require your attention. RedYoshiMK7Signature.png M&SG (talk) 12:51, 4 January 2012 (EST)
    • Where? --Steve (talk) Get Firefox 14:29, 4 January 2012 (EST)
      • It was another double redirect scenario; I didn't want to make it sound urgent. It has been taken care of though. RedYoshiMK7Signature.png M&SG (talk) 16:10, 4 January 2012 (EST)

Since you seem to be online...

...and it also seems this page doesn't get checked often, to let you know, I requested a rename. Not to sound obtrusive, just see header.--Smg icon fastfoecomet.png PSIWolf (TCE) 05:34, 6 January 2012 (EST)

Just this once.. you weren't exactly waiting for very long. --Steve (talk) Get Firefox 05:40, 6 January 2012 (EST)
I know, that was just what I meant... But I was afraid the page never got checked. You see, I'm a bit new here.--Smg icon speedycomet.png PSIWolf (TCE) 05:41, 6 January 2012 (EST)

If you're online, please take care of this sock immediately. I have to deal with him for 40 minutes already and have already reverted 100 instances of his trolling. Thanks --Bryce emoticon-00159-music.gif talk emoticon-00159-music.gif contributions 09:22, 9 January 2012 (EST)

Thanks for everything. Don't forget to RevDel any inappropriate edits (attacking living people, attacking me using cuss words, etc.) --Bryce emoticon-00159-music.gif talk emoticon-00159-music.gif contributions 09:28, 9 January 2012 (EST)

Idea

Could you take a look at this post and see if my suggestion is possible. Thanks.--Knife (talk) 14:50, 10 January 2012 (EST)


Question about the forums

I recently joined the forum and have a question about profanity. How do the Super Mario Boards handle swearing? Are there auto-censors? Good Magikrazy (talk)

Yep, profanities will be censored unless you decide to turn off the censor in your settings. --Steve (talk) Get Firefox 17:27, 20 January 2012 (EST)
The problem with auto-censors is that sometimes they censor even words that contain swear words. Good Magikrazy (talk)

Admin Discussion

Hey Porplemontage, the admins have been discussing something and we'd like you to weigh in. This is where the important part of the conversation starts. Thanks! - Walkazo 19:31, 21 January 2012 (EST)

Hello Steve! We've never met before. Hi! I'm YoshiKong! I'm just wonderng, what is a Monobook? I did ask Phoenix, but he wasn't quite sure and he refered me to you.

Monobook is the skin used for this wiki. See also wikipedia:Monobook. --Bryce emoticon-00159-music.gif talk emoticon-00159-music.gif contributions 05:49, 22 January 2012 (EST)


Hey, Steve!

I have more than two problems with the auto-censors on the forums.

1. I can't find where to turn them off. 2. They won't let me talk about Cofagrigus, a Pokemon from the new game.

I checked the settings and nothing about the censor showed up. So how do I change the settings of the censors? Good Magikrazy (talk)

It's under Modify Profile -> Look and Layout. Talk to the admins about removing the wildcards and making a rule not to merge swear words. --Steve (talk) Get Firefox 21:48, 22 January 2012 (EST)

Wow

Wow, after 4 years I just realized you had all platforms (something I think a true gamer requires). You are REALLY admirable. Just a curious question, what game series do you most often play on The Playstation and Xbox? And how often?
