The MFGG Wiki

Excellent. This is gonna fix up some of the confusion people have been wondering.

btw I was cracking down on the "needs info/broken links" page. I'll spend some more quality time with it soon.

Should also point out

There is a list of things that will be deleted soon

unless they're fixed/used

they won't be instantly deleted (and that help page should never be deleted) but they will go eventually unless they're put to use

I like this

Makes things a little easier.

Meh, after a long MFGGwiki-editing haitus, I returned to see someone editing an MFGGer article that they had previously created, without an MFGGer template, and with only a single line of text.

Really? Guys? You still haven't read the first page of this thread?

I could've just deleted it like the MFGGwiki nazi I am but I'm not really sure that'd be very productive.

EDIT: Also vandalism. aaa mfgg i thought we were past this fourth grade stuff.

I deleted something on this list and the list hasn't updated itself. Should I give it time? Or assume it's broken?

EDIT: Giving it some time now, and the list DOES update itself.

Ugh, Wikis are so slow to update category lists. That's probably why we thought the mfgger template was broken back when we were messing about with it.

Afternoon

I've made this template... for a laugh really... I dunno it seemed like a good idea at the time

http://wiki.mfgg.net/index.p...mplate:Download

Basically it's just some slightly better looking download link thing that goes straight to the main site. Just pop in the game ID like so

and you're off. Colours are probably a bit... bad, but tbh the whole default skin is boring as hell anyway. But Mediawiki is an awful beast to work with so god knows if it'll ever be improved.

on a more interesting note check this out

http://wiki.mfgg.net/index.p..._to_be_Replaced

IMAGES TO BE REPLACED

yeah that's right ***** I've even made a Wiki Template to fight JPEGs

of course I say use <gallery> tags in one of those templates but that was before I realised this version of mediawiki lacks half the gallery attributes... so it's still probably going to look resized and ugly (and again, old version of mediawiki means no filtering). Still good practise to split things up however.

Important (for one person at least):

(diff) (hist) . . ! Visionary; 04:33 . . TheJoey (Talk | contribs | block) ("Intro" is in first person, in some kind of typed out german accent or something? Will be thrown in a fire if not rewritten soon.)


Not kidding about throwing it in a fire part. First you blank the article constantly, then.. what the crap is this? Haven't decided whether or not just to delete your article and rewrite it from scratch, or just revert it; Either way, after you rewrite this (or don't) it's getting locked from use outside the sysop group.

Hey, what's wrong with it? I thought it was it was creative and it has correct information. It's just in a form of a story. =/

I wasn't trying to do anything out of the rules. I thought I would make my wiki a bit more interesting.

It's whatever though, if you want to be anal about it then be anal, I could care less.

Wouldn't be the first, second, third, or fourth time we've told people to rewrite their articles because it's written in first person.

So it would be the 5th Time?

Well, maybe if you asked me nicely to rewrite it instead of being rude and blunt. I wouldn't have talked against you. It pisses me off when people get too serious over the internet, it's not like my article will do any damage to anyone else. like I've said before, I don't care. I'll change it, it's no big deal. I apologize for whatever behavior I had a few months back too.

There everything is said and done.


Edit, Also, I've been WANTING my wiki article to be deleted for ages now. Just go ahead and do that.

EDIT: For future reference, I am a little more blunt towards people who I've had issues with in the past. I told you something along the lines of "not taking your ****". I asked you (blunt or not) to edit it so it's not in first person and not replacing all your w's with v's, or DON'T and let me deal with it my own way. Instead you threw up a hissy-fit. Which, by the way, is typical behavior from you when it comes to MFGGwiki. I'm not the one taking this seriously, because quite frankly, I didn't have any problem with the actual content, just the way it was written. It just gets tiring to keep telling people "Please no first person or wacky spelling" so I just tell people to change it for me or I'll do something a lot easier than picking through each v and make it a w, and pick through each I/me and change it to "her" and "Visionary".


Issue resolved. Any further comments should be directed to my PM inbox.

Someone needs to take care of the recent bot attack.

OH MY GOOOOOOOOOOOOO...

DELETING LIKE THE FIST OF NORTH STAR actually not really they kinda come in clusters.

Damn, I saw the bot attack but forgot to post about it here.

The bots are at it again, apparently.

I hope this doesn't end up being a consistently ongoing problem.

Worry not, I've got one of these!




Nah I wish

Where do you get those. I want them so bad.

Someone needs to update the Wiki for the events that have recently happened.

Personally, I'd give it a shot but I have no idea how the Wiki works.
