I know, you are sitting there at the computer thinking you just came up with something pretty unique. But damn it if I don't have a picture of almost exactly what you are talking about. I know, they all ask me. HOW DOES HE DO IT? The answer is a three parter: 1. Longevity. 2. Gumption. 3. A crippling physical deformity, and a lifelong battle with a sodium deficiency, what some insiders are calling "The Cancer of the 21st century.". All I ask for is your pity. And the money. I need that too. The Woodburninator

I remember now!

Do you recall when we were talking about the inability to upload via mobile, and we discussed a way to upload via sideload via flickr? Great times! Surprisingly though, that little gem of an idea didn't translate well when hosted on a new server, as the ability to sideload via flickr vanished. Of course if someone were to go into LocalSettings.php, set $wgAllowCopyUploads = true;, and add $wgGroupPermissions['autoconfirmed']['upload_by_url'] = true; this would add in that functionality. And then people who edit via mobile devices would be able to upload images. Nominally Humane! 12:39 01 Dec

Well, it's enabled now for rollbackers, although the implementation is buggy. (The preview function insists on populating the filename box with "Url", and then telling you "A file with a similar name exists already!".) As long as you set your own filename, it works fine. I'm working on fixing the bug. ~ BB ~ (T)

Da Troublemakers

Hi! You made such a nice comment about the Stanley Kubrick page that I'm wondering if you think you voted by didn't. It's stuck on the on-the-ledge number of four votes, fine if you've dining out with the voters but a little low for anything meaningful. Thanks! And did the Peter Falk voice carry you through most of it? I imagine Fadda Murphy as more of a heavy-voiced Italian mafia guy, workin fer da church, who's not very smart but must have been in the right place at the right time in his career to make it so high up in the Vatican. On the Kubrick page he has memories of Kubrick banging teen actresses, and that's what he focused on, and missed all the genius working around him which I attempt to get in the page by having him ramble on about the director and his movies. The key portion may be Meryl Streep's question, which seems to be a good summary of Kubrick's movie and career arc, and "Da Troublemakers" section to give the catholic child abuse horrors another spin. Thanks Aleister 12:17 2-12-13

Any idea why it says 1, 2, 8 and 3 rather than 1, 2, 3 and 4? 99.240.218.250 02:24, 5 December 2013 (UTC)

And did you know it won't expand on iDevices? (Although {{fakelink}} on sigexpand stuff will make it work.) Nominally Humane! 03:05 05 Dec

It says 1, 2, 8, and 3 because I'm funny.

And I thought I'd fixed sigexpand with a :focus rule. >_< ~ BB ~ (T)

~ Thu, Dec 5 '13 3:52 (UTC)

No mouse means no hover, but buggered if I know how focus works on an iDevice. With link added it will give first click will expand, and second will open. Fakelink will treat it as a link in regards to how the expand works. Nominally Humane! 04:56 05 Dec

Generally "focus" means something which is focusable is focused, i.e., clicked-on. Try clicking on it. ~ BB ~ (T)

~ Thu, Dec 5 '13 6:17 (UTC)

Tried again with no joy. I'll try it again later, as it may not recognise whatever you did to common.css until it updates or whatever it does. The “share” tab does work though.

As an aside, this refers to an alternate site. While there may not be the budget to build an iDevice app from the ground up, convincing the creator of this to direct to here may be viable. It does crack the sads when it comes across the links in your share tab, which makes it a nightmare to use even for the current site it displays, and it work allow native editing or history views, but it's an option. (Given I'm the only person I know who edits primarily via an iDevice, I figured I may be the only one to have discovered this.) Nominally Humane! 07:05 05 Dec

There's also the “write madly while on a smoke break” factor to add in there. Nominally Humane! 09:51 05 Dec

Whenever you have time again, do me a favor and do a hard refresh of your browser, then tell me if the :focus rule I added did anything. Also, cigarettes kill. ~ BB ~ (T)

~ Thu, Dec 5 '13 10:03 (UTC)

No difference, except for the logging me out. Nominally Humane! 11:58 05 Dec

I think it may be unsolvable. A quick search came up with this which shows that it appears to happen on other sites as well. This example expands, but this example doesn't. And it's your fault for making me think cig expand all the time. Nominally Humane! 12:08 05 Dec

You know, funny story, but {{Fakelink}} doesn't use any special HTML. It doesn't use an anchor tag or anything. So I'm a bit baffled by this. Both should work just fine. I have an idea, though: tell me if either of these expand:

And the winner is cursor: pointer. Title does nothing - I can't even view titles from here. Nominally Humane! 01:24 05 Dec

So now I know iOS Safari regards things with cursor rules as "focussable". How ...very special. ~ BB ~ (T)

~ Thu, Dec 5 '13 13:28 (UTC)

Yo dude, I have an idea. Try adding this to your user-js:

$( document ).on( 'touchstart', '.sigexpand', function(){} ).on( 'touchend', '.sigexpand', function(){} ).on( 'click', '.sigexpand', function(){} );

Then do a hard-refresh and let me know what happens. (I'm hoping it fixes the sigexpand for touch-enabled devices.) ~ BB ~ (T)

~ Thu, Dec 5 '13 13:43 (UTC)

It sort of works. A click will display, but it then hides again almost immediately and then displays again. I haven't had if give any other issues on the site, but I'm going to just browse around a bit and see if anything squirrelly comes out. Nominally Humane! 12:35 06 Dec

Ah - links in the newly displayed section are funky. It will recognise it as a link, a single click won't open it, and click and hold comes up with the normal dialog box (open/open new tab/add to reading list). Open new tab works, but open doesn't. Almost as though as soon as you've told it to open it navigates its way back. Nominally Humane! 12:40 06 Dec

Ok, I'll have to get an iOS emulator and check this behavior out myself. You're using Safari on the latest iOS, I guess? ~ BB ~ (T)

~ Fri, Dec 6 '13 1:58 (UTC)

Missed that last response. Either using Safari or Chrome for iOS - I tend to alternate as Chrome has a far better “full page” function. Responses on either are similar though. Nominally Humane! 09:12 06 Jan

What were we even talking about? You're gonna make me re-read this section again, aren't you? ~ BB ~ (T)

~ Mon, Jan 6 '14 21:16 (UTC)

Can you just add a cursor style to sigexpand? Seems the easiest fix to me. Nominally Humane! 09:33 06 Jan

Yeah, I guess. ~ BB ~ (T)

Looks to me like someone got the passwords for Mr Zuckerberg's website. Any chance of putting that brain article I did on there? That was kind of why I designed it. I think it's good you're pushing the horoscopes. They - and any other little "look and laugh" titbits - are what the social networking pages should be about. We can't expect people to wade through a whole article, but pictures, quotes, news headlines, etc are much more likely to be shared and commented on! . Leverage (talk) 17:52, 9 December 2013 (UTC)

Yeah, I'm not the one who handles the social media stuff (which is probably good, because I hate twitter and I want to personally destroy facebook). Hotadmin4u69 is the guy who handles it. Which is great, because he's never around. ~ BB ~ (T)

Hi Bizzeebeever

Recently I tried to log in as B222 after 4½ years of inactivity (see Special:Contributions/b222) but I got a message stating that no such account existed. After trying to report the issue, my IP was blocked indefinitely, perhaps because I included an external link to my Wikipedia talk page wp:user talk:b222.

Could you help me to fix the problem or advise me what to do now? I will check this page every now and then. You will also find a heading wp:user talk:b222#Uncyclopedia where you can communicate, if necessary. Thx, B222

Are you able to log into your account on the old Wikia site? We moved, but Wikia kept the old site open (obviously). If you can log in there and leave a message on your user-page, I can have somebody set up your account here for you. (Unfortunately, because Wikia doesn't allow wikis that leave them to have a copy of their own user table, we are forced to use a special extension.) In the meantime, if you are able to log into your account on the old site, I would recommend trying again here. It might work. :D ~ BB ~ (T)

~ Wed, Dec 25 '13 11:39 (UTC)

I tried, but the site claimed my password to be wrong, so I requested a new one. Then the site claimed to have sent one in the last 24 hours, but I did not receive any in the inboxes or spam folders of my primary addresses. If there is no easy way to reclaim the account, I will make another one, it's not such a big deal. Having my IP unblocked was the real issue. 82.171.6.217 12:34, 25 December 2013 (UTC)

Ok, and just to be sure, did you do the password-reset on the Wikia site, or here? You needed to try it on the Wikia site. (Doesn't really matter, I guess; I'm rather sure you're who you say you are. :D ) At any rate, I will see if I can get one of the other admins to set your account up for you. It may take a day or so.

As for the ban, it was lowered to a week by Frosty, who didn't check to see why the AbuseFilter banned you, and that week is already up, so... no harm no foul, I guess? ~ BB ~ (T)

For help with that block. I'm trying to create a real humour article but it is not simple to find the humour "codes" in a language different from my own one.

Scriptamajig

Would it be somehow possible to insert some magic into the QVFD scripts so that when someone adds something to QVFD via the QVFD gadget and a header for that particular day does not yet exist it creates it automatically? Because yeah people don't make headers and QVFD becomes a mess. RAHB will blow you if you make this happen, I promise. ~Sir Frosty (Talk to me!) 03:23, 7 January 2014 (UTC)

What if a header exists but it's a previous date? I only ask because unless you have a specific pattern for the format of the header (ie "dd-mm-yyyy *") you'll end up adding things to the wrong date, which is the position we're in currently. And do we have to be date specific on these? Nominally Humane! 03:38 07 Jan

I think Bizzee and I already discussed this here. Having it make a new header automatically should be doable, though. – Llwy-ar-lawr (talk • contribs • logs) 03:40, 7 January 2014 (UTC)

I mean if say a January 7th header was there but it was January 8th and something got added would it be possible for the script to "think" hang on, it's the 8th not the 7th and create a new header for the 8th and file the entry under the new header. This is my attempt to clarity yeah ~Sir Frosty (Talk to me!)

03:45, 7 January 2014 (UTC)

Oh...we did discuss this. I asked him if it could automatically make a new header when a new day started, and he explained that it was too hard for it to detect anything based on the existing headers, as it would have to decide if the existing top header matched the current date. People add silly stuff to the headers, etc. So that looks like it's a no go. But if there aren't yet any sections on the page, it should be able to add one. What do you say, Bizzeebeever? – Llwy-ar-lawr (talk • contribs • logs) 03:49, 7 January 2014 (UTC)

You mentioned you read the Stanley Kubrick page in Peter Falk's voice (wearing his trenchcoat and carrying that dog). Did you like it enough to vote for it? (hint hint, nudge nudge). It maybe needs one more to land it in the promised land. Thanks! Aleister 12:11 16-1-14

The thing is, I don't know enough about Kubrick to know if this is funny enough for highlight. It didn't make me laugh on first read-through, and it didn't make me laugh on second, even with Peter Falk doing the narration. But it's also not Mr-Ex777 getting bumsex from Matt Smith, or A Wizard Did It. So I'm torn. ~ BB ~ (T)

~ Sat, Jan 18 '14 7:51 (UTC)

Perfectly fine. To do a serious take on the article, I don't find it funny as much as satirical in nature (two different things in many cases) and it attempts to use that satire to give people a working knowledge of his work. The good padre is so stupid that he hung out with Kubrick all those years and throughout so many movies and yet didn't see his genius, but just thought he was chasing young actresses and mucking around. Within the page I try to honor Kubrick and actually expand the accumulated interpretation of his work and life (this goes on throughout the page, but I'm particularly proud of the Meryl Streep question in the questions and answers section), even in the many asides that Fadda Murphy spouts. Kubrick was an interesting director in that he put multi-layered symbolism into almost every scene he did, and those symbols and metaphors bounce around each other all throughout his better films. A reclusive genius in some ways, unlike Leverage, who is a clusive genius. Aleister 13:56 18-1-14

p.s. and oh, what I came here for originally. I see you have Puppy's Tropical Cyclone in your pages to fix. You don't mean fixing the swirling do you? The only fix I can see, and I meant to mention this to Puppy, is that in the past it seemed to get to the swirling quicker, and now it lags a bit and someone might have already left the page before it starts.

...I don't even see the image! Weird. I guess it's my computer or something... ~ BB ~ (T)

Yeah, it's one of our best effects here. I wouldn't even know how to look at that code, but it may be of interest to you and other people who know what code means other than morse. Aleister whoops, almost signed my real name, which is Senator Kay Bailey Hutchinson 14:04 18-1-14

I've asked a couple of people, and it seems that the problem lies in the Vector skin, which you apparently don't use (but which all non-logged-in users see by default). Since the old site uses a Monobook hack, the page works fine over there. If you take a look at it with the Vector skin, you should be able to see what I mean. ~ BB ~ (T)

~ Sun, Jan 19 '14 10:19 (UTC)

Ah, the problem is real. Maybe Puppy would have a fix, but you know coding like the back of Frosty's hand, so you would know too. Since this is one of the best effects here (or at least was...) can that single page itself be set to Monobook or whatever book? Thanks for explaining it with visuals. Aleister 12:10 19-1-14

Pretty please, with sugar on top

Can you change the front page so it says the featured article's name. I know it was changed to make it more inline with wiki, but the thing it, wiki always meantions the page's name in the first line, whereas we don't. It's almost impossible to guess the title of today's article, and worse, new readers to the sight might click on stuff simply because it's the first link in the article. It makes much more sense to me the way that the old uncyc page has it. Leverage (talk) 09:17, 18 January 2014 (UTC)

Take a look at the spoon's home page. The "Links under banner" section is missing from ours. This contains some links which I guess people didn't want to keep (like the Big Five) but I think some stuff towards the end must refer to the featured page.

Actually it's {{Featuredarticle/include}}, and after my fix to it, I have no idea how things are gonna look when there's no featured article lined up for that day. I'm thinking it just may say "From ". We'll know it when we see it. ~ BB ~ (T)

My page just shows from today's featured article as a hyperlink, it still doesn't display the name. It's definitely better, but I reckon the name is necessary to give the reader a grip on what he's looking at. Leverage (talk) 14:43, 18 January 2014 (UTC)

I pasted the spoon's include code to Template:Leverageballs and then its Featuredarticle code to User:Leverage/ContentWarning (an old sandpit page of mine). Seems to work. Leverage (talk) 15:08, 18 January 2014 (UTC)

Ok, I changed it to have a link to Today's Article, full name and all, just like it used to be. FYI, all those {{CURRENTDAY}} bits are for a previous best-of we had, so they're outdated; I guess somebody forgot to take them out. Also, you can make a template in user-space and still have it work as a template. I'll move Template:Leverageballs to your userspace, and then you can let me know if you want to keep it. ~ BB ~ (T)

~ Sun, Jan 19 '14 2:46 (UTC)

Cool beans. I wondered about the possibility of doing a template in my user space, but I played it safe with the option I knew would work. I get embarrassed if I am seen moving pages around and stuff. I think the page looks better now. The omly thing I still find weird is that "recently featured" refers to today's feature (both here and at the spoon). Considering we have obliterated "Yesterday's Featured Article", maybe we should try and make this link work for that. Leverage (talk) 10:12, 19 January 2014 (UTC)

Yeah, I was thinking about changing that, but I'm not a DPL wizz like Spang thought he was; also, it seems like every template he ever made is a labyrinthine mass of spaghetti and razors. I'll have a look into it, but I ain't promising anything. ~ BB ~ (T)

~ Sun, Jan 19 '14 10:16 (UTC)

I just took a look at it too. The problem is we don't have a featured article every day, right? So, right now it will display this Unbook unless we go 10 days back, to English language. It might just be easier to have it manually: Previous featured article: + link. Given all this talk of the front page, would you mind putting up a new article?

qvfd gadget

This is a pretty minor thing, but since I do weird stuff to my preferences I notice it. When I have a different language set in my preferences, the qvfd link in recent changes doesn't display; it only shows up when I tell it to use English. See for example recent changes in Welsh.

Parser functions

Hey. How's it going?

Spoony-floor has been playing with {{RL}} and it led me to wonder. This uses an "expensive" parser function. When I created that function the plan was to keep it to a minimum, but I'm wondering if it's as big a concern as I first thought. I know all the dynamic time-stamped signatures on this page made you archive. Is it something we need to be significantly concerned about? Nominally Humane! 09:12 10 Mar

The expensive-parser-function problem is only a page-by-page issue, and you'll know if it becomes an issue because things on a page with too many parser functions will stop working, and the page will show up here, allegedly. As for whether or not it slows down the server... that probably only becomes an issue if a page with lots of "EPF" calls gets extremely popular in the Intertubes. At which point, we'll just turn on Varnish or another cacher and have a laugh. Oh, the good times we'll have. ~ BB ~ (T)

Template:Colonized and similar badge stuff

The location of that badge was related to being able to fit FA and other similar badges at the top of the page. Is there a better way of coding this (say, something added to site js) that will put all the relevant badges in the top right of the page, aligned right, at a uniform image size? And if not, why not?! Nominally Humane! 05:07 30 Mar

When a web designer has a problem, he thinks "I'll use JavaScript!" Then he has two problems.

CSV file thingy

Hey you,

Odd question. I've been putting together a tool to do something funky with CSV files dumped into a page as raw text. What I'm wanting to do is grab a CSV file and change:

First value, second value, third value, fourth value

into:

|First value = second value / third value / fourth value

Now I know I can do {{#replace:string|search term|replacement term}} stuff, but (last time I was trying this) it dies when you hit 1000 characters. It also would struggle with the first "," becoming "=". Can you think of a way of doing this easily? Nominally Humane! 10:58 06 Apr 2014

Whenever I have a need to do large text-replacements, I use Notepad++, or else a javascript evaluation console I hacked together. For Notepad++ (or any other Scintilla-based editor with regex replacements), the search-string for your specific example would be (I think) something like

^([^,]*),([^,]*),([^,]*),([^,]*)

and the replacement string would be

|\1 = \2 / \3 / \4

But everybody knows awk/gawk and sed (or perl) are for real men. ~ BB ~ (T)

Penis. My email decided that a notification of a change to this page was junk, and every other wiki change was fine.

Not quite what I was thinking. Thinking more along the lines of if someone dumps the raw text of a csv, manipulating it with wiki fu into something a little different. I've got a vb script on my excel to do the conversion locally, so that's not the problem. But I've come across another snag anyway, so the whole plan is one the far back burner.

On wikis with the Scribunto extension (like us and Wikipedia) you could use a Lua module, I guess. ~ BB ~ (T)

~ Fri, Apr 18 '14 6:02 (UTC)

Yarp. Just started looking into Lua a couple days ago. Just to confirm - do these modules run server side? (In other words, can they be switched off by end-user? And can they be run prior to wiki parsing?) Nominally Humane! 08:28 18 Apr

I believe the Lua modules run after parser hooks and templates have been expanded, but before other wiki-text is parsed. Not 100% sure, though. They do run server-side, yes, not on your computer. I don't know any browsers that support Lua, anyway. ~ BB ~ (T)

~ Wed, Apr 23 '14 3:56 (UTC)

Yeah. When I say I was looking at it, I should say I looked and saw something called Lua, which I had never come across before, started reading the justification for that over js at Wikipedia, and then got distracted by a shiny object. The snippets of code that I saw aren't alien to me though - similar structure to other stuff I've played with. But it is still an almost completely new idea to me.

There is an app called "WikiEgg" that can currently access another site with the same name. I mention this only as I've used it in the past, and ended up going back to the browser version. Apps - in my experience - tend to have very little functionality on wikis comparative to what can be done otherwise on site, and make little or no difference to the user experience. However, if you are able to contact the developer of that app, they may be able to adjust the destination site.

Special:AbuseFilter/34

That apparently stops ips from creating user talk pages, and I think that's a bad idea because they can't create their own talk page and that means it's harder for them to appeal blocks. I tried to change it so you can create your own talk page but not someone else's and I think it disabled the filter because it had more conditions than the condition limit, but I don't know how many the condition limit is or why. I also had it so ips can create any old user talk page but RAHB said that was bad. I'm not happy with how things are now but I don't see a good way to fix it and I've been told to come to you for help. Besides you created the filter so you should something something. – Llwy-ar-lawr (talk • contribs • logs) 05:28, 23 Apr 2014

Unfortunately, <youtube> is a "parser hook" (I think that's the term) and is expanded before template parsing (I think?). So ...for whatever reason, you can't pass arguments to the <youtube> tag. Jean Valjean set up {{Thumbnail}} to deal with it, and ran into the same problem. ~ BB ~ (T)

extensions

Following up from my great work on the youtube thing, how do extensions work? I notice, for example, that <galllery> extensions work on wikia but not here. What do we have to do to get them? Leverage (talk) 10:33, 18 May 2014 (UTC)

<gallery> tags do work here; the syntax may or may not be different, but we definitely have them. Was there something else you wanted installed? – Llwy-ar-lawr (talk • contribs • logs) 17:02, 18 May 2014

I was after a slider function. The wikia page I looked up said this:

Thanks LaL. Gallery is listed, and we can obviously use that here. Just seems like this particular functionality doesn't work. Do we still use Mediawiki in the same way wikia pages do? Leverage (talk) 11:39, 19 May 2014 (UTC)

Wikia has a number of wikia-specific extensions that we don't have, and they run on an older version of mediawiki. The specifics of that should all be listed on that page I linked (and Special:Version for what we've got installed). There's also some stuff involving skins and css sheets but I don't know how that relates to this. – Llwy-ar-lawr (talk • contribs • logs) 15:10, 19 May 2014

Wikia uses an ass-load of (what I am told are) horrible custom hacks to MediaWiki Core along with (what I am told are) terrible extensions. I'll look into the "slider" for ya, though. Also, sorry I took so long to get back to you. Thanks for holding down the fort, Ll...Spoons. ~ BB ~ (T)

~ Mon, May 19 '14 21:57 (UTC)

Cool beans. My thoughts were we could jazz up the UnNews main page. We no longer look anything like Wikinews so I thought it might be useful to have a more animated lead articles template. What do you reckon? Leverage (talk) 12:56, 21 May 2014 (UTC)

~ Fri, May 23 '14 5:38 (UTC)

I'll see what we need to get a slideshow extension set up (and by that, I mean "I'll have to remember to ask legoktm if we can do that", because I don't know how to use git).

Chao

It seems you want not to give this article a cookie, but a time bomb. Since Llwr told me to ask editors I better ask you.

What made the article bad?

Was the consept bad?

Were the images crap?

Did the layout suck?

Was the article actually funny?

Were you the one who said if I nominated the article again I would get bann'd? Chaoarren Chaohead (talk) 21:29, 30 July 2014 (UTC)

Well, the article has several issues. One, you've made quite a few grammar and spelling mistakes. Two, it's just not funny. I don't know what a chao is, and while I pretty quickly got the general idea from reading your article (it's something from a video game, and by clicking the Wikipedia link, I see it's from Sonic the Hedgehog), the article doesn't make me want to care, and most importantly, doesn't make me laugh. Which leads me to your #2 question...
Is the concept bad? Um... well... it's flimsy, at best. Chaos are real animals. Ha. It's been done before, successfully, and it might work here, if you developed it. But you don't. It reads like a general description of a video game character, and then ...your jokes are all weak-sauce. Are there jokes, even? I mean, you assume your audience is familiar with chaos, but...? If I can't understand any of your jokes because I haven't played Sonic the Hedgehog, then you're already failing. (By the way, is the name of this character a play on the word "chaos"? If so, there's a vein of potential that you left completely un-mined.)
The images are "eh" at best, but they aren't the article's main problem, or they wouldn't be, with funny captions. Funny captions can make up for just about any transgression. (Except for the image with large capital lettering in it. The MemeGenerator.net-style images make an article look like something off of Imgur or ED, and those sites both suck infinity dicks. While I'm on the subject of images with embedded captions, why on earth do people use them here, anyway? In MediaWiki, there's a space underneath an image for a caption. So having an EMBEDDED ALL-CAPITALS CAPTION has two disadvantages: 1) it looks like shit, 2) it makes having a regular caption pointless, 3) it looks dumb, and 4) you can't change the caption in the future to something that's funnier, or works better with the article. Did I say "two disadvantages"? I meant five. 5) It looks like dumb shit. Still, that's a minor quibble here.)
Nothing wrong with the layout.
See #1 and #2.
I did not say that if you nominated the article again, you would be banned. I don't think. That was probably somebody else.

I hope that this answers your questions without hurting your feelings too badly, and you should remember that I'm the last person you should ask for writing tips, seeing as I haven't written anything comprehensively funny in about two years. (Or ever, depending on whether or not you ask Zombiebaron.) If this article were on my plate, I'd probably go balls-to-the-wall serious, and make like the chao was a Dodo or something. And then quit half-way through, after I ran out of ideas. ~ BB ~ (T)

Short pages question

Gerrycheevers asked a question on my talk page about removing certain pages from Special:ShortPages. This was solved on the old site (at least with the disambiguation pages) by adding a wall of text to the templates themselves. That doesn't seem to be working on the new site. I tried adding the text to several different templates (e.g. Undictionary, UnVoyages, etc.) but there doesn't seem to be any effect. It's been awhile since I've added them so I don't think it's an issue with the cache being updated. Is this something that can be fixed or should I just add the wall of text to individual pages? MadMax (talk) 18:18, 20 October 2014 (UTC)

I took a look at the code behind Special:ShortPages, and the significant stuff is this:

        function getQueryInfo() {
                return array(
                        'tables' => array( 'page' ),
                        'fields' => array(
                                'namespace' => 'page_namespace',
                                'title' => 'page_title',
                                'value' => 'page_len'
                        ),
                        'conds' => array(
                                'page_namespace' => MWNamespace::getContentNamespaces(),
                                'page_is_redirect' => 0
                        ),
                        'options' => array( 'USE INDEX' => 'page_redirect_namespace_len' )
                );
        }

        function getOrderFields() {
                return array( 'page_len' );
        }

...which indicates that Special:ShortPages sorts on the page.page_len field, which contains the "uncompressed length in bytes of the page's current source text". I don't think adding hidden text to a template transcluded into a given page will change this field for that page. That means you'll probably need to add hidden text to all of the pages in question. I suppose someone might add a hack to that special page to exclude certain namespaces (such as UnDictionary); would you like me to ask about that? (It would have to be one of the tech guys, because I am completely unfamiliar with hacking Mediawiki Core.) ~ BB ~ (T)

~ Mon, Oct 20 '14 19:21 (UTC)

Thanks, that would be great. I'm not too sure who the site's technical guys are these days myself. On an unrelated subject, I notice the "Uncyclopedia.com" no longer redirects to the old site. I was under the impression Wikia still owned the .com domain name. I haven't been able to access "Uncyclopedia.com" in almost two years. MadMax (talk) 04:27, 28 October 2014 (UTC)

The tech guys are me, legoktm, Emufarmers, Jack Phoenix, Isarra, and Skizzerz, although Skizzerz is usually busy (I think). I'll see what I can do about keeping certain namespaces off of Special:ShortPages.

On the other thing: you're thinking of uncyclopedia.org. Uncyclopedia has never owned the .com domain; some vineyard owner (lulz) in Washington state owns Uncyclopedia.com, and has never responded to our emails. Oddly, however, Uncyclopedia.org seems to be Not Working right now, although it still seems to be registered to Wikia (the domain owner's name is obfuscated, but their DNS record points to Wikia nameservers.) ~ BB ~ (T)

Oh, that's right! It's been so long I'd forgotten. So can either hold on to the .com or .org domains indefinitely? MadMax (talk) 01:32, 5 November 2014 (UTC)

As long as they renew each year? I think so. We might be able to force an auction for the .com domain if the guy forgets to renew, but I have no idea how that would work, and it would be fucking expensive. And Wikia probably will never forget. ~ BB ~ (T)

Why was sheep made into a redirect when it was once a featured article

This is NOT AMERICAN! ŤäŁķ ¿Ș₮áłĶ?฿¡฿↓¡ography 22:35 10.20.14

It was a featured article that was featured literally right before we moved, and was a bit of fabulous self-promotion on SPIKE's part, and was a mediocre article. That being said, I believe Zombiebaron was the one who deleted it during Forest Fire Week, so you'd have to ask him about it. ~ BB ~ (T)

What do you mean by "self-promotion"? Self-nom? Anton (talk) 10:44, 28 October 2014 (UTC)

There is a page called "Sheep", I don't know how you could think it was a redirect or deleted. -- MagicBus Talk to me! 11:06, 28 October 2014 (UTC)

Looks like Xamralco undeleted it and moved it back. ~ BB ~ (T)

Sorry for my overwhelming curiosity, but really, do you consider the fact that Spike nominated his own work as self-promotion or something else? Anton (talk) 14:20, 28 October 2014 (UTC)

Stop saying the s word ŤäŁķ ¿Ș₮áłĶ?฿¡฿↓¡ography 20:00 10.28.14

Self-promotion. Also, it's a crappy article. I dunno how it managed to get featured. But it did. And now it's back in the mainspace, so I guess Controversy Over. ~ BB ~ (T)

Everyone is a bot out here. Even you. Anton (talk) 14:22, 29 October 2014 (UTC)

So there is no shabidoo out there in the real world? "GASP" !!! --ShabiDOO 14:25, 29 October 2014 (UTC)

I saw this and it made me think of you.

Quite the family resemblance, eh? The Woodburninator

Hey I found this image you photoshopped together. You shouldn't let people see your genius like this. Someone might steal it. The Woodburninator

Re-feature queue

If you want, you can go to Uncyclopedia:Re-feature queue/Nominate and pick one featured article that you wrote to be re-featured. You can also pick three features written by someone else to re-feature. -- Sir Xam Ralco the Mediocre 20:44, 17 November 2014 (UTC)

Also, goddammit, I missed this. Are you still around? ~ BB ~ (T)
