Title: FreeSpace Wiki Problem
Post by: Snail on June 10, 2008, 09:33:49 am
Should be self-explanatory. Visit the Wiki, something is wrong with it.

Works for me.

Works now but I saw the error too. A few minutes ago. Some database **** or somethin', hmm.

Yeah, it's okay now but it wasn't a few minutes ago. Anyhow.

Christ, you guys are way too active. Wiki was just updated, nothing to do with bunnies and lazorz. :p

Actually, on further inspection, there is one problem: It can't display thumbnails. Try the FRED portal or the multiplayer page to see it.

Eh... I'll see about that once I'm done with forums upgrade.

Not too important. If it comes down to it I can upload versions of the images that are already scaled to fit the articles. Won't let people see more details by clicking it then, but at least it'll work.

It seems that MediaWiki 1.12 is full of problems, so I'm reverting back to old version and maybe see about upgrading to the latest version of the previous stable branch.

Edit: Yep, 1.11.2 works fine. So far.

****! All the changes since June 5th have been deleted!

I must have downloaded wrong backup file from which I restored the database after buggy 1.12 experience. Unfortunately today's backup doesn't exist anymore. Next time I won't remove backups so hastily just in case something turns up later.

My apologies. I hope there wasn't much new stuff added in the past four days. :nervous: :(

How often is the stuff added to the wiki anyway? :doubt:

Edits are made every day, thank you very much.

But in the last few days nothing really important has been added. Except those mission tables I spent about an hour on. :(

We did agree they weren't the prettiest things ever to grace the wiki, though.

Yeah and all of them were crap. So I can't be bothered to make them again. Anyway.

I liked those mission tables of yours.. First two of them were very good. But i personally didn't really like the last one.

Something odd just happened - not a few minutes ago I was looking at the main page of Getting_Started(Main). It still shows up in search, but now every time I try to go to it, it redirects to Getting_Started_Main and tells me there's no text for the page.

Strange. Seems to work fine for me, and there have been no changes to that page since September 2007.

Just found another problem: Delete isn't working for images. Page deletion works fine, though.

Just adding to the list: Uploading pictures to the Wiki is really inconvenient.
Title: Re: FreeSpace Wiki Problem
Post by: Shade on June 15, 2008, 03:48:19 pm
How so, is it broken or do you just not like the regular upload function? Because the latter I don't think there's much to be done about.

Always get inernal error. I have to check the 'ignore warnings' in order to upload successfully. However, then there is a risk of the picture not displaying properly.

Well, "Getting Started" is working for me again. :wtf:
