I'm a very active forum user and slightly inactive, but still occasionally on the regular pages, of a wiki where the most active members of staff only check in every month, give or take a few weeks. I'd really like to help my fellow users out, and seeing as there's currently a user that talks a little too much off-topic, and more on how they're supposedly "16" and their pet birds, I think we'd really need a staff member to work things out.

I'd tell the staff on Discord, now, but my parents don't allow me to use it. I do think it would be important, but not exactly necessary.

Now, how long does the staff have to be inactive for me to become an owner? How long do I have to wait so I can make sure the wiki's the best it can be?

WHAT? What are these users?? Are they bots? Hackers? Test accounts???

Hello.

I am an admin on Alphabetty Saga in French and English.

I would like to have a table regouping all the data from the different levels of the game (e.g. required score, number of moves, blockers) and use it in the level articles' infoboxes (as values of parameters such as score=, moves=, blockers=).

I am also a contributor to RimWorld Wiki (not part of Fandom), and there the Template:Q exists and allows to get the parameter value on one page from another page.

Its code is quite simple:

{{#vardefine:q|{{#if:1|{{#show: {{{1}}} | ?{{{2}}} | link = none }}}}}}{{#ifeq:{{#var:q}}-|-|{{{3|}}}|{{{5|}}}{{#var:q}}{{{4|}}}}}

Syntax

{{Q|page|property|default text|suffix|prefix}}

Required parameters:

• Page: The name of the page to be queried against.

• Property: Show the value of this property.

Optional parameters:

• Default text: Text to be displayed if the query has nothing to display. Typically this is N/A or a dash.

• Suffix: Text to be displayed immediately after the query result.

• Prefix: Text to be displayed immediately before the query result.

The problem is it uses the "#show" parser function, that is part of the extension Semantic MediaWiki, that Fandom does not want to add on request...

I look a bit around and found no real alternatives (except maybe Extension:Cargo, but I'm not sure how to use it).

So, does anyone know how I could export my data from a table to infoboxes located on other pages (or the opposite) on Fandom wikis ?

Kind regards.

Lets say I make a post that has quotes in the title - for some reason Fandom now changes the quotes in the title to "

How do you do that

I created a wiki for the worldbuilding of a fictional world I was working on almost 5 years ago. For numerous reasons, it wasn't used to its full extent at the time - however there was information there I didn't have a copy of anywhere else.

I've gone to start accessing it today and it appears to be completely gone. I can't find any version of it linked to my account or on wayback machine.

I've searched through my emails and don't seem to have received any warning that my wiki was going to be deleted due to inactivity, or I would have backed it up.

Is there any way for me to get my data back?

I cannot scroll down further to my other 12 notifications, it's not my mouse, can someone tell me what's happening? Thanks :>

I think the new layout is absolute crap! You said you were going to fix the notifications bug, and it still takes forever to load. I would like to go back to the previous layout, so as to not deal with this stupid bug.

Hello, discussions have sadly changed to FandomDesktop recently, and currently OasisRevived doesn’t work for it yet. This has caused notifications to stop working in the D-board and discussions, along with making the discussions a lot worse.

Anyways, even with OasisRevived, notifications don’t work in pages, only in profiles. But if profiles are changed before this is fixed (because when it’s fixed it’s only for a little bit) nobody will be able to access their notifications.

Although this once again shows how much of a pain and unnecessary FandomDesktop is, I was wondering how long it will be until notifications finally work again.

Hello, on Fandom lately, there is a malicious vandal who, from evidence told to me by a wiki representative, that an open proxy is likely being used to change IP addresses to circumvent global IP blocks. This is incredibly annoying and makes a great deal of undesirable work for the Harry Potter wiki rep Ursuul, along with content moderators and ordinary editors.

Open proxies, achieved by using VPNs, are used to change IP addresses instantly and can override Fandom policies on sock puppetry and ban evasion. Wikipedia, bans all editors from using them, for the obvious reasons of vandalism and block evasion, and also gives the opportunity for certain editors to contact Wikipedia and request an open proxy be approved for them, for legitimate reasons only. I believe Fandom should also follow the same policy on open proxies; they can be used for deception and vandalism done with them causes so much avoidable work for Fandom and its editors. Thank you.

• How do wikis get footers?

• This wiki has a slider but it's still on in the dashboard

• I've seen some wiki where they upload their fonts here. How can I do that?

• Am I the only one who likes the discussions design?

I think that's it
