Windows has had support for unzipping files itself without needing additional programs since I think windows XP, in windows 10 you literally need to open it and click Extract, as Sophiedp's link shows. I don't see anything on AutoWikiBrowser's page about needing WinZip, it just says to extract.
If you ever need to extract non .zip files, I'd recommend the 7-zip utility, which is free, non-commercial software, that just adds a right-click menu to extract stuff you need, but you really don't need it for zip files.

Nevertheless, it's wonderful, and I hope I could find out how to use it on other Wikias.
I'm not sure if stylish works with import of local urls. What I'd recommend is to copy the code to Special:MyPage/global.css and see if that works.
Frankly I'm supprised this hasn't been done sooner. I've always used monobook and I'll be sad to see it go but it has been here for a long time where other companies would have cut support for it ages ago.
I'm sure wikia has the stats on who uses monobook and that was used to form the decision. If I were them I'd weigh that against the estimated time a project like this would take, bearing in mind that the skin may need to be worked on again in the future. Honestly the reason it's been here this far is probably because something like this hasn't come up before now
I have addressed every point you've made in my previous posts. Put simply, your assumptions are false. As you can't let thes assumptions go, I don't believe repeating what i've said is a good use of my time. You may read what I've previously said about the matter
To put it simply, this case is closed. You will not be unbanned and so repeated asking about it will lead you nowhere. Please do not contact me about this again.
Thank you.
Happy new year.
I feel our previous discussion of this is conclusive and the ban will not be reconsidered.
No. The discord channel isn't an official wikia channel, and so moderation is at our discretion. There's no guarantee of access just because you have a wikia account. Bans are normally permanent but if you want to argue your case or feel there was a mistake please contact a mod on discord or on our wall. Thanks
So if you had a list of 2 pages that should have changes, and you started AWB it would say no changes, and then when there was 1 left it would work on that one? If so that sounds like a bug with AWB as it's designed to work with a large number of pages.
You can check and re-send email confirmations at your preferences under "email".
So what happens when you run AWB on the list, it simply says there are no changes?

As a helpful resource, you might want to check out http://www.regexpal.com/ - in options you can click multiline and include this Regex, and then you can test it against different strings.
The first id is 1.
?oldid=1
That'll normally be the main page of the wiki, so if you want to go forward in times, just keep increasing the number until you find what you're after.
Also the /bar is actually irrelivent here, as the page is looked up by id if you add an oldid field, http://community.wikia.com/?oldid=1 works fine
If possible, you shouldn't copy and paste to move the article.
The talk page can be moved back with the move tool, this preserves the history. If you're not the admin, ask the admin to do it - the move tool allows admins to get rid of the redirect.
If there are no active admins, then the best way to do this is probably copy and paste, copy the source from the talk page to the main article over the redirect.
Put simply a regular expression is a way of matching lots of strings of text together. For example the regex [a-z]ar would match on all 3 letter words that end in -ar (so bar, car, as well as zar, rar, far, dar, ear, aar, etc).
You can learn more about regex at http://regexone.com/ You can test your own ones here: http://regexpal.com/ - but go through the tutorial at regexone first
Hi. You say you're having issues adding new pages, what happens when you try to add a page?
Special:Contact/close-wiki on the wiki that needs closing
Quoting the relevant sections:
"We don't usually delete wikias once they have been created. Wikias are community-owned projects, and a wikia you are no longer interested in can wait for someone else to come along and adopt it.
If you feel this wikia is on a topic that no other users may be interested in (such as a personal project), please submit a request using the form below. Please make the request from the wikia that needs closing."
Weird. I've downloaded all 3 files (the one on MediaFile and the 2 from Wikia) and they are the exact same file (checked by doing an md5sum on them).
I also checked the URL you had on and I got the exact same file again. Are you sure this is not just the browser preview acting up?
In your previous thread in March, you were told that it is an admin's responsibility to choose who to block. This remains the case.
I feel as though the discussion, like the discussion in Thread:1006080 has ran it's course. You have been given the information, that's all we can do to help you. So I'm going to close this thread
