The MFGG Wiki

I think I fixed it, it should also work if you directly call it in a member's page instead of using the mfgger template

And it should also avoid marking the mfgger template as a page with no account

Essentially what you've achieved is exactly what we had before I added the templates. They're pretty much redundant now and the Main Site Profile and Forums Profile links show up even if you haven't entered anything...

Weird, it's calling some members with forum accounts added as "members without forum accounts."

This can be fixed if MFGG's version of Wikipedia has #if statements, but if it doesn't, it can't be helped

Then Kyori is right, that must be a glitch ... since MFGGer checks for two different names for the number values and substitutes only if neither exists :/

Very odd

The whole reason I added the extra templates was because I couldn't find #if statements in MFGG's version of MediaWiki.

I'm pretty sure they're an extension that Wikipedia has, not a standard add-in to the MediaWiki releases.

If you're going to be technical on the name, the software is called MediaWiki, not WikiMedia, so both of us were wrong.

I know why valid pages are still categorized as having no accounts, but I can't stack includeonlies, so it doesn't seem to want to cooperate.

I edited my post just before you posted

I was guessing at the name until I saw it at the bottom corner of the MFGG wiki.

The main point here is that your edits have pretty much just reverted my workaround.

So, should I revert the templates, delete them entirely, or what?

Your call, guys, since it's your work.

I'd revert them back to my edits, it's the only way I can think to do it.

Or you could

go back to my revision that worked


The majority of forum goers have a main site account anyway.

If we have no reason to call the forum links outside of the MFGGer template, we can just copy the template code into the MFGGer template and it should all be dandy.

My workaround works, the only downside is that it puts the MFGGer template in the Without Forum Account and Without Site Account categories. We can live with that can't we?

I'd try that out and see if you can get it working, that would probably be the best way to go about things.

You could probably avoid this if the MFGGer template itself handled the categorization, otherwise one template or another will be categorized due to the inability to stack includeonly ...

ok, reverting to whatever worked last. Your other-worldly language of wiki technology confuses me.

Yup, like I said, that's probably the way to go.

Aaaand letting the list refresh itself.

Right, now back to working through the list
