Graphviz
Hi,
I'd like to use the Mediawiki GraphViz Extension (www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:GraphViz) in the Wiki oxygennotincluded.gamepedia.com - would it be possible to install it? Oh, and also I was not allowed to ```adding link at end or in heading``` Cheers, SchlauFuchs (talk) 03:26, 31 May 2017 (UTC)
- Adding the link was probably not allowed because you have not edited this particular wiki before. As for the extension, I don't think it is not among those we currently allow (at least not explicitly), so all i can do is submit a request to have it vetted (which i will do right now). If it passes that phase, then i can install it for you. I'll be in touch — Game widow (talk) 14:25, 31 May 2017 (UTC)
- The extension is now available on Gamepedia. — Game widow (talk) 20:49, 9 January 2018 (UTC)
- Thanks for that. I applied it first in https://oxygennotincluded.gamepedia.com/Guide/Food#Crunching_Numbers. Can you please find out for me how to
- - set the resulting image size or how to have it in scrollable frame?
- - how I can include images from in the gamepedia to appear in a graph? –Preceding unsigned comment was added by SchlauFuchs (talk • contribs). Please sign your posts with ~~~~
- OK, so i don't think it can be resized, but i you can wrap the entire thing in a div and apply style="overflow: auto;" to that (i did that right on the page you linked so you can see the result). As for including images, i don't know. Where did you first hear of GraphViz? was there an example of it being used that you like? i might be able to figure out how it works a bit more easily if i saw expertly used somewhere. — Game widow (talk) 22:34, 9 February 2018 (UTC)
- I started doing some serious graph and now I get the error message "Graph image creation requires permission to upload." (https://oxygennotincluded.gamepedia.com/Guide/Sustainability) –Preceding unsigned comment was added by SchlauFuchs (talk • contribs). Please sign your posts with ~~~~
- I think you keep forgetting to set the format (I've set it to png) — Game widow (talk) 12:49, 14 February 2018 (UTC)
- This seems to be a deeper problem, so i've filed a ticket with our support team — Game widow (talk) 13:05, 14 February 2018 (UTC)
- Thanks, please tell them that I was able to see and generate this graph for about 3 hours when I was producing preview and saved it repeatedly. Also, I noticed the the page reloads before the image is generated, that means I had to reload the page a second time to see my changes. SchlauFuchs (talk) 21:09, 14 February 2018 (UTC)

stuff
Hi, can you please add the RandomSelection and DynamicPageList extensions from the Extensions#Optional_Allowed_Extensions to our wiki pillarsofeternity Wiki. --AnotherArk (talk) 22:44, 14 April 2014 (UTC)
- The manager of that wiki is VaultAusir, i've passed along your request. — Game widow (talk) 00:11, 15 April 2014 (UTC)
- I am familiar with VaultAusir, I'll keep in mind that he can help with such matter as well. I got you because you made the "mistake" of advertising on your user page that you are a stuff member ;) --AnotherArk (talk) 00:52, 15 April 2014 (UTC)
Sorry to bother you, my name is Camber. I have been working on adding material cost for the weapons on the Life is Feudal wiki page, and I keep thinking about the way the info box's are displayed. I want to discuss them with somebody, before trying to just change them. What is the best way to go about coming to a concusses with who ever it needs to be talked out with? Basically my issue is with the Equipment having a "cost" when it's not really a cost it's more "skill" needed. But there are currently 800+ pages linked, which would all need " fixed" if cost was changed to skill. (I have no problem doing it) Also was wondering if you guys needed any more help, other than just general editing. Thank you for taking the time to read my little question.Camberme (talk) 18:00, 7 October 2014 (UTC)
- It's no bother at all, i left a more complete answer on your talk page — Game widow (talk) 20:18, 7 October 2014 (UTC)
- Hello, Camber here again. talking about the Life is Feudal Wiki page, is there a way to lock it down, so all the random ip address people (probally just one person can't make pages, but only registered users. I think we have enough pages :) Camberme (talk) 01:13, 12 January 2015 (UTC)
- It's not usually our policy, but the spam problem is really getting out of hand. First, i'll try a stricter abuse filter. — Game widow (talk) 13:50, 12 January 2015 (UTC)

- Have you tried clearing the Gamepedia cookies from your browser ? Also, we recently moved to https for the login protocol, is it possible you are trying to login with just http ? — Game widow (talk) 11:33, 2 April 2015 (UTC)

- Apparently there's an issue being caused if your IP address changes while logged in that then prevents it from recognizing your password. That's being worked on now. In terms of the infinite re-direct, how often and when are you seeing that? The dev team says there was a short window when something was causing that but it was fixed pretty quickly. CrsBenjamin 15:47, 2 April 2015 (UTC)
- As far as I tested, on my smartphone I get that when being logged in at (including, but not limited to) https://terraria-ru.gamepedia.com/ and recently https://ftb.gamepedia.com/, while on my tablet I get that on all wikis I was logged in.

- It turns out that the email I used to create my account is fake. I think there should be a feature where if the target account does not have a confirmed email address, it happens automatically. If the target does have a confirmed email, the confirmation process occurring can be set in your preferences and defaults to on. This way, I can delete my account even though I can't check my email.67.160.25.176 22:34, 20 April 2015 (UTC)
- We don't want to discourage potential contributors who value their privacy and use fake addresses, so that's not likely to stop. However, you can't have it both ways. You can't expect to not play the game and then get all the help. Register with a real address and benefit from the added level of user support or take the associated risks with fake addresses. — Game widow (talk) 00:48, 21 April 2015 (UTC)
- The thing is I don't have a real email. Users that use fake addresses should have the right to do these things, even if they don't have the cancel option, Alternatively, the notification can be sent directly to the IP address that was used to submit your request (would show in Curse.com).75.165.42.19 00:59, 21 April 2015 (UTC)
- For security, the email could be used as a backup password, as no one else would know what you provided.75.165.42.19 13:06, 21 April 2015 (UTC)
- Another thing I thought of is that most of the time, it works as it does now. The exception is if there are major changes to the login system (the changes would be automated).71.212.10.80 01:20, 30 April 2015 (UTC)

- We actually did previously have a french version of Path of Exile wiki and it languished. I can put you in touch with the bureaucrat to discuss possibly reviving it. — Game widow (talk) 15:47, 8 December 2015 (UTC)
- Hi, yes i would very much work on that project because it can't be found on the french Gamepedia and the french community can't enjoy, thanks ! --CaptainLOL999 (talk) 16:14, 8 December 2015 (UTC)
- Here you go. The main page needs to be translated first, the rest of the content that is there should already be in french, but might not be. — Game widow (talk) 21:01, 8 December 2015 (UTC)

- As it's the weekend, we won't get much fixed right away, but i will bring the issue to the attention of the platform team, first thing on monday morning — Game widow (talk) 17:48, 12 December 2015 (UTC)
- I figured out the problem with the images: because the french wiki was restored from an old version, all the image links still pointed to local copies of the images which had not been restored. The french and english wikis now share a common image store, with the english wiki as master. When i removed the old pages that pointed to the missing french copies, this allowed the calls to use the versions on the english wiki and resolved the issue. Basically, any image on the english wiki can be used on both wikis, but images uploaded to the french wiki can only be used on the french wiki. — Game widow (talk) 11:04, 13 December 2015 (UTC)
- Hi, yes thanks you did fast but I encounter some obstacle for exemple the table included in Life page, what can I do because I try to copy from the original wikicode and translate directly in the french wikicode (we have in the french version a visual editor so we're generally less talented than you for code) but the table refers directly to a model base. Thanks and sorry for this disturbance. --CaptainLOL999 (talk) 20:35, 18 December 2015 (UTC)
- I did ask Iamacyborg to help you out directly. The table i think you are referring to depends on the individual skill pages (like Axe Damage and Life using the passive infobox. I did a quick test on Dextérité (compétence passive) and used the table on Dextérité and you can see that it works. So for French pages, you must explicitly add the "icon" field. Please follow up with Iamacyborg. He knows that wiki best — Game widow (talk) 10:28, 19 December 2015 (UTC)

- That's good, i will spin up the wiki and move your pages over — Game widow (talk) 12:03, 10 May 2017 (UTC)
- All set. From now on, you should add directly to the Spanish help wiki and you no longer need to put the /es or put things in the ES translation catetory — Game widow (talk) 14:19, 10 May 2017 (UTC)
About a Bug of Achievements System in Chinese Minecraft Wiki
There is a bug in the achievement system in Chinese Minecraft Wiki.
All achievements are duplicate.
A few months ago, we translated all of the achievements in Chinese Minecraft Wiki. But after this update, we lost all of these translations. Now we are planning to re translate these achievements, will these translations lose again after the next update of achievement system? Thanks!SteveZihang (talk) 05:29, 6 May 2017 (UTC)
- This is being looked at but i cannot give you an exact timeline — Game widow (talk) 22:44, 9 May 2017 (UTC)
Users on Chinese Minecraft Wiki Lost a Lot of Wikipoints and Gamepedia Points
Before this update, there were many users have high wikipoints and Gamepedia points on Chinese Minecraft Wiki. But after this update, we almost lost all of our wikipoints and Gamepedia points. I think this is a bug. This bug also appeared on Chinese Gamepeida Help Wiki. But it doesn't appear on other wikis.SteveZihang (talk) 05:46, 9 May 2017 (UTC)
- Although wikipoint is just a kind of point, it can represent how much users contribute to the wiki. It can also let users have power to edit, so I think wikipoints are meaningful. Please fix this bug. Thanks a lot! SteveZihang (talk) 06:03, 9 May 2017 (UTC)
- We have made some major changes in the back-end handling of wiki points and the system is still retotalling. We expect your wiki points total to rebound shortly, so if you could just bear with us a bit longer, things should look more normal soon. — Game widow (talk) 17:46, 9 May 2017 (UTC)
- Got it. Will the bug above be fixed? Thx. SteveZihang (talk) 22:00, 9 May 2017 (UTC)
- I found that our Gamepedia points were much more than before the update.SteveZihang (talk) 12:30, 11 May 2017 (UTC)
- Do you mean they were more before and now they are less, or that the new total is greater than you expected ? — Game widow (talk) 15:29, 11 May 2017 (UTC)

- Perhaps not. I prefer the wikipoints I had previously owned. :)SteveZihang (talk) 14:26, 12 May 2017 (UTC)
A Suggestion
People who have "check user" right can get users' IPs. I'm afraid some check users will misuse their rights. Maybe they will get users's IPs and divulge them. That would be unthinkable. There should be at least one local user to supervise the usage of "check user" right on each of Gamepedia wikis.SteveZihang (talk) 08:03, 12 July 2017 (UTC)
- We don't give out that particular right, so don't worry — Game widow (talk) 12:12, 12 July 2017 (UTC)
- I can't undestand. You mean local users who have check user right can't check user?SteveZihang (talk) 12:27, 12 July 2017 (UTC)
- Correct — Game widow (talk) 12:48, 12 July 2017 (UTC)
- Wikimedia projects have a special policy on check users: there must be at least two check users in a projects, if any. They also require the user to be at least 18 years old (or 16 in rare cases) and to submit some personal information to the Foundation. — NickTheRed37 (talk | ru.gphelp Admin | ru.minecraftwiki editor) 15:19, 23 July 2017 (UTC)
- There's not currently a good enough reason to give checkuser to anyone; sockpuppetry hasn't been a major issue on Gamepedia as far as I know so I think Gamepedia staff can take care of that if that comes up. -Xbony2, WikiNerd (talk) 13:22, 24 July 2017 (UTC)

A Suggestion
Extension:CodeEditor may be useful. It can help users check js/css syntax. Could you please deploy this extension on Gamepedia wikis?--SteveZihang (talk) 14:48, 23 July 2017 (UTC)
- Generally? no. For individual wikis who want it, they can request it — Game widow (talk) 15:44, 23 July 2017 (UTC)

A Small Bug
SteveZihang (talk) 12:07, 25 August 2017 (UTC)
- I don't know what you are trying to describe, perhaps some words would help — Game widow (talk) 13:14, 25 August 2017 (UTC)
- The buttons and message boxes display incorrectly:
- 1. When clicked, the width of the "Alerts" button will be increased, and unless reload the page, it cannot be reversed;
- 2. The message boxes do not align with the center of the buttons;
- 3. The buttons' icons are not at the center of the buttons.

A Request
The Chinese Terraria Wiki is missing Favicon.ico. Could you plsase fix it up?SteveZihang (talk) 12:19, 25 October 2017 (UTC)
- Just upload one, it should be 16x16px and it must be called Favicon.ico — Game widow (talk) 12:36, 25 October 2017 (UTC)
- OK. Thank you.--SteveZihang (talk) 13:11, 25 October 2017 (UTC)
Help me
Help me I want to continue to edit Neverwinter Wiki. My old twitch was banned. And I asked for my account to be deleted. I created a new one and want to continue editing. I can not confirm e-mail. Barknar (talk) 14:13, 8 November 2017 (UTC)
- The problem is solved. I want to continue to improve the Neverwinter wiki. Barknar (talk) 17:41, 8 November 2017 (UTC)
- Well, if it's solved, you should be good then. -Xbony2, WikiNerd (talk) 12:13, 9 November 2017 (UTC)
Request
I'm busy studying so that I have no more time to edit. Please remove my "Wiki Guardian" permissions on Chinese Help Wiki.SteveZihang (talk) 04:48, 20 February 2018 (UTC)
- OK. Let me know if the situation changes and you want the rights back — Game widow (talk) 12:17, 20 February 2018 (UTC)

Translation of wikis gamepedia
It would be useful for Gamepedia to update the translations of their wikis in translatewiki.
In Brazilian Portuguese (pt-br) and European Portuguese (pt) in minecraft wiki brazil already everything is translated.--Eduaddad (talk) 21:34, 8 April 2018 (UTC)
- I've suggested this many times to our platform team but they don't use it so it would not hurt anything, but i doubt it would help anything either — Game widow (talk) 14:53, 9 April 2018 (UTC)
the gamepedia's own messages could be translated into a gamepedia translation wiki that translators can translate and other editors can copy and change the English messages to the wiki source language using Extension:Translate (example on FTB Wiki) on the wiki.--Eduaddad (talk) 00:53, 14 April 2018 (UTC)
- I am aware of the extension, we do not use it on the help wiki. — Game widow (talk) 13:07, 14 April 2018 (UTC)
Not the help wiki but in a wiki intended for the translations of Gamepedia (TGW -Translation Gamepedia Wiki)--Eduaddad (talk) 01:51, 15 April 2018 (UTC)
- Do you mean creating a separate wiki to do this? If so, ask Ben Robinson 14:50, 15 April 2018 (UTC)
Yes, a separate wiki for use in translations of Gamepedia--Eduaddad (talk) 19:10, 15 April 2018 (UTC)
Enquiry re achievements
Hey,
On here Gamepedia staff have written the page like a MediaWiki extension page. Since it looks awfully detailed for a public wiki and has no download link is it open or closed source?
Regards,
Sau226 (talk) 15:44, 29 May 2018 (UTC)
- Under licensing it says "All rights reserved" so i imagine it is also closed source. It is in-house — Game widow (talk) 15:54, 29 May 2018 (UTC)

Bot login
I am having trouble logging in as a bot because whenever I sign out and sign in it tells me to sign in using Twitch. I sign in, and it just redirects me to the wiki without giving me the option to use a bot. Help! Piggy McCool 23:33, 2 October 2018 (UTC)
Bot logins are for external tools usage, and you need to set up a separate set of credentials using Special:BotPasswords, see also Logging in to third-party tools. DSquirrelGM

- You may also have a cookie set with which ID you are using. If you delete your *.twitch.com cookies (and possibly *.gamepedia.com) you will be given the option to use a different ID when logging in. Alternatively, you could use a different browser where those cookies are not already set to log in with your bot ID — Game widow (talk) 11:06, 3 October 2018 (UTC)

Extensions configuration and requests on R6S Wikis
Hi; it's been 3 months since I asked Mr Pie 5 to get 3 extensions vetted and to configure 2 installed extensions (List - discussion here) but he has no answer from the dev team. Is there any problem with extensions dependencies ? Could the dev team configure extensions at first ? --CreativeC38 (talk) 19:35, 7 January 2019 (UTC)
- I can assure you that he did request that all those extensions be vetted. The reason for the delay in getting a response is that your requests coincided with our upgrade of the installed version of MedaiWiki. The requests have not been forgotten and they are still in our queue to be vetted. Since the dev team has not gotten to them, there really is nothing that we can report other than what i've just said — Game widow (talk) 19:50, 7 January 2019 (UTC)
- I always trusted him; I taught more of a mistake or some kind of bug in the ticket system. Thank you --CreativeC38 (talk) 20:01, 7 January 2019 (UTC)
