Discussion
Today I upgraded the server significantly. We are now running 1.22 MediaWiki.
I also took some steps to steamline the system:
- Removed the other subdomains (such as pool.) and unified them all in one wiki.
- Removed a whole bunch of unused accounts.
- Installed an extension to combat spam (note: this is not in operation as of yet).
As a consequence of combining the 'wikis', some data was lost. I have re-imported all the lost images, but a lot have lost their descriptions. I apologise for this inconvenience, but the complexity of a MediaWiki makes these hard to tackle, particularly if you don't plan for them. Which I'll admit I did not.
Do please comment if you notice any issues remaining. --Sviptalk 13:24, 15 January 2014 (CET)
We look beautiful!
I'm glad our diffs are still different from Wikipedia's.
The "Navigation" and "Affiliates" headers are gone. Is that intentional? It looks a bit weird that the arrow for the icons is all by itself. And in order for the sidebar to be changed wouldn't MediaWiki:Sidebar have to be changed first?
