II Wiki: Announcement and Discussion Thread

[New Carloso]

What happened to the images on iiwiki?

I believe this was addressed here:

Just as a note: I am currently in the middle of transferring the bulk of images to the new server. I had to take IIwiki off the public internet in order to keep the images folder stable during the transfer. It will be back in read-only mode soon, thank you for your patience.

THL has since appointed me, Il Douche, as head of the Department of IIwiki. I assure you, I will do as little as possible to save backups of our wiki pages.

This is the commitment we needed to hear. Good work, comrade!

Thank you loyal pinkshirt. Now, go commit some fabulous haram or something.

[West Aurelia]

I hope someone's make backups of the Atlas pages.

*cough, cough MoI*

I've backed up mine.

Hi everyone,

I have reenabled the wiki for editing. So you all enjoy! But I have not completed the server upgrade. I will keep you all updated, but enjoy using the wiki as normal!

P.S: Some pages may load considerably slow on the first load due to the caches (especially images) being flushed. But should be fine after that.

[Maltropia]

First edit! Awesome stuff, Solm. I love you.

Thanks for all the work done (including those of others involved) for IIwiki!

Thank you, Solm.

I'm in the process of backing mine up now.

Can you please delete the entirety of everything related to the "Uguria" category and the links related to the page "Korista"? I thank you in advance if you are going to.

Requests for deletions should be made on IIwiki so we have a way to track whether the user requesting the deletions is the original creator of said material. You can do this on the Article Review and Deletion Requests discussion page, or you can request it directly from one of the administrators by commenting on one of their talk pages: simply hit, "Add Topic," and do not forget to sign your request with "~~~~".

Thank you.

Remember that "Road signs in Esquarium" article that caused entire IIwiki to crash if you edited it? Well, I just discovered that if you even try to access the older versions of the page for viewing, IIwiki goes derp as well.

What the hell is wrong with that page?

Are all of the images in .SVG format, or are they high-resolution .PNG? If it's the latter, it may be a combination of an extensively large amount of image data in combination with native page formatting leading to the server to "burp" up an error or a timeout when someone attempts to access it. Solm might be able to look and see in the server logs, but no promises.

It's cursed.

For whatever reason that I may have not known of, and perhaps something to do with the ongoing upgrades, there are some rather egregious script errors present on IIwiki.

It's being looked into at the moment but we're not sure what's up (he said, accidentally looking like an admin). The only one I know of at the moment is the native name in {{infobox country}}; got any other examples?

Recognised regional languages. Also, the right side of this article now looks like something fresh out of a horror novel - ironic that it's about a political author.

[Kyrusia]

We are currently aware of the problem (script errors). It is in the process of being looked into to determine a cause and a course of action to correct the issue. The IIwiki Administrative Staff ask you for patience during this time, and we greatly appreciate your patience and error reporting. Thank you.

The birth date for some people is messed up as well.

Dear Incredible IIwikians,

So, about these script errors! I have finally had a chance to look into/research the issue and have discovered the problem. It appears that when the most recent version of the Infobox:Country template was imported (and the templates it is dependent on) it brought along versions of the template incompatible with our version of Mediawiki. Wikipedia is running Mediawiki 1.24 while IIwiki is running Mediawiki 1.23. So, no worries! We will upgrade our installation soon and hopefully they will all be fixed. I will keep you updated with the progress. There will probably be a short period of read-only mode involved.

Thanks all!

Question, so is the Infobox:Country fixed yet as of now? Or not yet?

Why won't the image for my civil war article work?

[Transnapastain]

Why won't the image for my civil war article work?

Needed to add brackets and "file:"

[[file:Sheiwanese civil war.jpg|300px]]

I got it for you

Is the script error detected only found on {{infobox:country}}?

Because there's errors on {{infobox:settlement}} as well, as can be seen here:
