== Question from [[User:Pauli1505|Pauli1505]] (19:33, 26 February 2025) ==

I came here to make a wiki about my game engine, i can kind of stay professional in writings, but often times my brain will just zip everything short, and i have a habit of typing everything lowercase, im working on the shortening stuff, but is the lowercasing a problem? --[[User:Pauli1505|Pauli1505]] ([[User talk:Pauli1505|talk]]) 19:33, 26 February 2025 (UTC)

:That’s not a problem. Feel free to request your wiki [[special:requestwiki|here]]. [[User:Globe|Globe]] ([[User talk:Globe|talk]]) 19:40, 26 February 2025 (UTC)

== Your blocking on test.wikioasis.org ==

Don't block users while waiting for CheckUser unless the behavioural evidence is strong enough. [[User:EPIC|EPIC]] ([[User talk:EPIC|talk]]) 08:41, 3 March 2025 (UTC)

:There's already enough behavioural evidence to essentially confirm it, however I'd also like a steward to double check and if CU evidence confirms it as well, then a global (b)lock can be implemented. --'''[[User:Zippybonzo|zippy]]'''[[User talk:Zippybonzo|bonzo]]''' ([[Special:Contributions/Zippybonzo|c]] • [[Special:CentralAuth/Zippybonzo|ca]]) 09:40, 3 March 2025 (UTC)

== Question from [[User:Flanvenus|Flanvenus]] (22:43, 28 May 2025) ==

Is this for making wikis or editions on wikipedia? --[[User:Flanvenus|Flanvenus]] ([[User talk:Flanvenus|talk]]) 22:44, 28 May 2025 (UTC)

:Hi! This is a wikifarm, similar to Fandom (but better) or Miraheze. We host sites on the same software that runs Wikipedia (MediaWiki), but with different scopes. For example, there is an Art Wiki, which is a “Wikipedia” that only contains content about art. Hope this helps, let me know if you need anything else! [[User:Globe|Globe]] ([[User talk:Globe|talk]]) 00:42, 29 May 2025 (UTC)

== Question from [[User:IulianArian|IulianArian]] (13:45, 12 June 2025) ==

Hi, I have a question...
For how many days does my wiki has to be inactive for it to be deleted? --[[User:IulianArian|IulianArian]] ([[User talk:IulianArian|talk]]) 13:45, 12 June 2025 (UTC)

:We don’t automatically delete wikis for inactivity as of right now. If it comes to a point where we need the additional storage space, it would probably need to go 6+ months with no edits to be deleted. [[User:Globe|Globe]] ([[User talk:Globe|talk]]) 19:04, 12 June 2025 (UTC)

== Question from [[User:Wikiball|Wikiball]] (00:27, 14 June 2025) ==

Hello, Zippybonzo, I have one question, are Countryballs allowed on WikiOasis if they're used in a politically neutral way? --[[User:Wikiball|Wikiball]] ([[User talk:Wikiball|talk]]) 00:27, 14 June 2025 (UTC)

:Not Zippybonzo, but I am a steward and I don’t see why this would be a problem. As long as it would follow the [[content policy]], it should be allowed. Specifically, I would make sure that it remains compliant with our prohibition on toxicity. [[User:Globe|Globe]] ([[User talk:Globe|talk]]) 01:21, 14 June 2025 (UTC)

== Question from [[User:IulianArian|IulianArian]] (18:36, 22 June 2025) ==

Is there a problem with the Portable Infobox extension?
Because for me the Special:InfoboxBuilder page doesn't load.
I've tried everything, refreshing the page, deleting cookies, everything! But nothing...
And yes, I do have the extension enabled. --[[User:IulianArian|IulianArian]] ([[User talk:IulianArian|talk]]) 18:36, 22 June 2025 (UTC)

== Question from [[User:Rrd257r|Rrd257r]] (03:39, 27 June 2025) ==

Hello. I was wondering if it's okay to create a wiki to use as a sort of personal knowledge manager. --[[User:Rrd257r|Rrd257r]] ([[User talk:Rrd257r|talk]]) 03:39, 27 June 2025 (UTC)

:Yes, that is absolutely okay! [[User:Globe|Globe]] ([[User talk:Globe|talk]]) 03:43, 27 June 2025 (UTC)

== Question from [[User:BTB Studio Code|BTB Studio Code]] (16:06, 11 July 2025) ==

Hello! Would it be possible to make the Wiki looks relatively the same in both mobile and on phone, since it currently appears bugged with my Wiki to render to far to the right. I also have noticed a very difficult time navigating your website, and changing my settings, so that's just something to note, but how would I add a custom CSS to my web page? Since it currently appears I'm limited, and unable to set a background image for it? And sorry for so many questions at once, but where are the rules for the wiki supposed to be, are you allowed to link other wiki's, and it appears that the home button is bugged on certain themes, such as the Citizen theme it appears in dark it renders as a square in Arch Linux, it also seems like I'm unable to edit my page in my phone, would my users have to deal with that issue as well? --[[User:BTB Studio Code|BTB Studio Code]] ([[User talk:BTB Studio Code|talk]]) 16:06, 11 July 2025 (UTC)

:I think it's because of a missing image with Citizen. Otherwise you have to set minerva as the default for both desktop and mobile if you want them to look the same, vector isn't really a good mobile skin. --'''[[User:Zippybonzo|zippy]]'''[[User talk:Zippybonzo|bonzo]]''' ([[Special:Contributions/Zippybonzo|c]] • [[Special:CentralAuth/Zippybonzo|ca]]) 18:29, 11 July 2025 (UTC)
::Okay, I meant whatever skin my wiki was using, I spaced out on the name, sorry. But as well as that may you answer a few of the previous questions pertaining to my Wiki, or at least stylizing it, and editing it [[User:BTB Studio Code|BTB Studio Code]] ([[User talk:BTB Studio Code|talk]]) 19:01, 11 July 2025 (UTC)

== Question from [[User:Kiragecko|Kiragecko]] (17:58, 11 July 2025) ==

Any major differences between here and Fandom? I've made and edited wikis before, but only there. --[[User:Kiragecko|Kiragecko]] ([[User talk:Kiragecko|talk]]) 17:58, 11 July 2025 (UTC)

:Generally more customisable, no adverts and we don't force the fandom skin onto you lol --'''[[User:Zippybonzo|zippy]]'''[[User talk:Zippybonzo|bonzo]]''' ([[Special:Contributions/Zippybonzo|c]] • [[Special:CentralAuth/Zippybonzo|ca]]) 18:28, 11 July 2025 (UTC)

:::Glad to hear! Wanted to pop by and say welcome—your request is approved. Thank you for choosing WikiOasis! [[User:Globe|Globe]] ([[User talk:Globe|talk]]) 20:17, 11 July 2025 (UTC)

== CSS Making ==

How would one go about adding a site-wide, or page wide CSS settings using this program? I'm having a very, very difficult time figuring out how in my limited use [[User:BTB Studio Code|BTB Studio Code]] ([[User talk:BTB Studio Code|talk]]) 20:49, 11 July 2025 (UTC)

:Not Zippy, but I hope I can provide a few answers in the meantime. Sitewide CSS is controlled by the page MediaWiki:Common.css. Users can customize their own styles by editing their personal CSS pages such as User:YourUsername/common.css. To apply CSS to a specific page in MediaWiki, you can assign a unique class or ID to elements on that page and then target those selectors in MediaWiki:Common.css. For example, you might use body.page-PageName as a CSS selector to apply styles only when viewing a specific page. Lastly, if you want to apply CSS to just a specific skin (like Vector or MonoBook), you can instead edit pages like MediaWiki:Vector.css. [[User:Globe|Globe]] ([[User talk:Globe|talk]]) 21:07, 11 July 2025 (UTC)
::Oh thank you so much! Took me a while to figure it out, but now that I did my sites acting a bit funky but that's likely because of the refreshed theme [[User:BTB Studio Code|BTB Studio Code]] ([[User talk:BTB Studio Code|talk]]) 21:41, 11 July 2025 (UTC)

== Question from [[User:Notedbilly|Notedbilly]] (13:10, 22 July 2025) ==

hello, me and my friends, being administrators on our wiki ([https://kabachok.wikioasis.org|wiki]), recently lost the right to edit absolutely any articles. theres still an admin panel, there is the ability to change articles names and delete them etc but somehow no to edit. is there any reason to it? --[[User:Notedbilly|Notedbilly]] ([[User talk:Notedbilly|talk]]) 13:10, 22 July 2025 (UTC)
:Hello! I’m really not sure what would have caused this change. I’ve tried re-adding the edit permission to the user group through managewiki. Let me know if that allows you to edit again! [[User:Globe|Globe]] ([[User talk:Globe|talk]]) 13:22, 22 July 2025 (UTC)
::thx! its back again [[User:Notedbilly|Notedbilly]] ([[User talk:Notedbilly|talk]]) 20:36, 23 July 2025 (UTC)

==Hello==
Hello! I need some help with importing Module:Documentation/styles.css and Module:Message box/ambox.css

There is an error saying: Import failed:
The content model 'sanitized-css' is not registered on this wiki.
See https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Content_handlers to find out which extensions handle this content model.

When I create the module manually it says: Lua error at line 1: unexpected symbol near '/'.

Also my wiki logo isn't displaying but my favicon is and how do I add "From Dovepedia, the Dove Hepburn encyclopedia" like "From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia" at the top of pages? Thanks! --'''[[User:LeicesterLass|<span style="font-family:Segoe print;color:magenta;text-shadow:magenta 0.2em 0.2em 0.4em;">Leic</span>]][[User talk:LeicesterLass|<span style="font-family:Segoe print;color:red;text-shadow:red 0.2em 0.2em 0.4em;">Lass</span>]]''' 11:47, 8 August 2025 (UTC)

== Invalid Discord Invite ==

The Discord invite link on the [[Main Page]]'s ''Contact Us'' section is invalid. Just a heads up! [[User:Metrago|Metrago]] ([[User talk:Metrago|talk]]) 14:14, 14 December 2024 (UTC)
:Hey mate, thanks for reporting this. It is now fixed by Waki. --'''[[User:Raidarr|raidarr]]''' '''('''[[User_talk:Raidarr|📡]]''')''' 09:50, 15 December 2024 (UTC)

== Trust and Safety groups deprecated ==

Because of lack of need at this time, WikiOasis [[Trust and Safety]] as a team has merged into [[Stewards]]. This means I am the 'Trust and Safety Representative', of sorts, but ultimately a Steward by role. Globe is now just Steward.

To refresh on how the farm is run, it is governed by an Executive Team that includes stewards and sysadmins, who respectively handle community and technology affairs on the farm (though membership can and does overlap). There are other possibilities, for example we have some advisors and are willing to work with people who have decent ideas how to push the farm forward (we could always use some energy), and if you have a wiki project you'd like to host we're open to discussing that as well.

Take care all,

--'''[[User:Raidarr|raidarr]]''' '''('''[[User_talk:Raidarr|📡]]''')''' 10:30, 20 December 2024 (UTC)

Administrators

'''Administrator''' is a default group enabled on all wikis by default. It can be granted and removed by [[Bureaucrats]] by default.
== On Meta ==
'''Administrators''' are users with additional technical capabilities on Meta. They use these technical capabilities to perform routine maintenance, such as deleting old pages and blocking vandal accounts. They have the technical ability to do the following (not an exhaustive list):

* Protect pages
* Delete and undelete pages, revisions and logged actions
* Block and unblock users
* Edit fully protected pages, and those in the MediaWiki namespace
* Grant and revoke certain user permissions
* Create and manage central notices globally
* Edit the [[Global title blacklist]]

=== Becoming an administrator ===
Administrator is a highly trusted role, giving users the ability to manage certain global functionality, such as central notices and the global title blacklist. In order for a user to become an administrator, they must request it on the [[Meta:Requests for permissions|requests for permissions]] page. For the request to be deemed successful, there needs to be the following:

* At least 5 users vote in the discussion
* At least an 80% support ratio
* The request must have been open for at least 7 days

=== Revocation ===
In the event that a request for the removal of administrator for a user is opened on the [[Community portal]], for the request to be deemed successful, there needs to be the following:

* A 50% support ratio
* The request has been open for at least 3 days
* At least 3 users vote in the discussion

== Globally ==
By default, administrators have access to:
* Protect pages
* Delete and undelete pages, revisions and logged actions
* Block and unblock users
* Edit fully protected pages, and those in the MediaWiki namespace

=== Appointment/Revocation ===
If a wiki has a local procedure for appointment/revocation of administrator access, that should be followed. If a wiki does not have any local bureaucrats, please post a request at [[Steward requests]] for a user to be granted administrator. If a wiki does not have any local administrators or bureaucrats, a discussion should take place as per local procedure, and upon closure, the closing user should request for the right to be given (if successful) at [[Steward requests]]. If a wiki has no local administrators or bureaucrats, and no local procedure, stewards follow these guidelines:
* A discussion should take place for 5 days on the community portal
* A 70% support ratio should be reached.
