• Hi,Can I apply for a general wiki that has more than 300 language versions like Wikipedia?--Msnhinet8 (talk) 07:58, 2 November 2024 (UTC)

like to this wikipedia page languages。--Msnhinet8 (talk) 08:01, 2 November 2024 (UTC)

@Msnhinet8, in theory yes. You can use the Translate extension to have lots of language versions, and if the site grows more, we can create you different language versions. Zippybonzo (talk) 09:33, 2 November 2024 (UTC)

thanks.--Msnhinet8 (talk) 09:43, 2 November 2024 (UTC)

Hello

Where have you gone? Первый русский (talk) 12:03, 12 February 2025 (UTC)

You have two accounts to vanish

Just a friendly reminder that you have two accounts to vanish at Steward requests. 92.38.141.37 20:56, 15 February 2025 (UTC)

Can you please vanish my account

I have given the reason at SRG so can you please vanish my account. OasisOtis (talk) 21:13, 15 February 2025 (UTC)

@OasisOtis we have decided (and we did this a while ago) we rarely vanish unless for GDPR, so although I don’t really have the authority to do so I’m declining your request on those grounds. --zippybonzo (c • ca) 23:34, 15 February 2025 (UTC)

Oversight Request

Can you delete nearly all edits made by とんかつ総統閣下? Those edits are an invasion of privacy and defamation. (I'm reverting now) melt (talk) 08:10, 28 February 2025 (UTC)

Waki285 is now doing it. Harmicelli・春雨🌂(投稿記録│トーク) 08:12, 28 February 2025 (UTC)

👍 (I don't have time so I can't revert anymore now) melt (talk) 08:16, 28 February 2025 (UTC)

@Meltup just wanted to add, please if you can don't request this onwiki due to the streissand effect, email [email protected] or Special:EmailUser a suppressor. Thanks :) --zippybonzo (c • ca) 08:23, 28 February 2025 (UTC)

Ok, Next time something like this happens I'll post an email instead of a talk page. melt (talk) 09:59, 28 February 2025 (UTC)

Because the vanishing requests are for privacy, they also cause the Streisand effect at SRG. But the vanish request may keep old username but oversight doesn’t so fuck off. 69.50.92.18 01:57, 6 March 2025 (UTC)

Why did you delete these pages?

Why did you delete User:A and User_talk:A? A is globally locked so A has to use his IP address to declare that he is retired. 194.195.251.87 20:21, 7 April 2025 (UTC)

Editing while logged out, while being globally locked, is block evasion and will be met with further blocks. Globe (talk) 23:23, 7 April 2025 (UTC)

Dovepedia

Thank you for your concerns and I would like to explain why Dovepedia stands out from Wikipedia as well as its special role in the wiki world.

Dovepedia stands apart from traditional encyclopedias by advancing the principles of simplicity and inclusivity while prioritising mobile-first design. Dovepedia avoids the complexity and policy-focused nature that characterises Wikipedia.

• Dovepedia reaches general audiences and English learners through its straightforward writing style which matches the reading level of The Guardian or The Times.
• The platform offers mobile-friendly readability and easy-to-navigate formatting which makes it perfect for handheld browsing.
• Many wiki sites aren't truly mobile-optimised—Dovepedia is.
• Dovepedia focuses exclusively on human-generated content while avoiding AI-produced text and dependencies on Wikidata along with template overuse.
• Our platform accepts niche topics that Wikipedia typically rejects.
• Hobby articles along with local interest pages and lesser-known creatives and businesses find their home on this platform.
• The platform follows a radically open philosophy by implementing minimal gatekeeping policies and creating a welcoming editor environment for hobbyists and informal contributors.
• Dovepedia serves as a complement to Wikipedia by bringing back the initial wiki principles of speed, personal readability, and authenticity.
• We aim to create a curated open environment where the enjoyment of writing and reading has priority over bureaucracy, deletionism, or over-engineering.

I am willing to adjust the Dovepedia listing to align with this ethos if you approve. Let me know what you'd suggest!

Warm wishes, Dame Dove Hepburn -- LeicesterLass (Talk to me!) 18:56, 11 June 2025 (UTC)

@LeicesterLass, not going to comment strongly on this but my question to you is why did you write this message with AI? --zippybonzo (c • ca) 11:48, 12 June 2025 (UTC)

Excuse me? I did not! --LeicesterLass (Talk to me!) 20:49, 12 June 2025 (UTC)

I'm struggling to create articles! --LeicesterLass (Talk to me!) 00:11, 13 June 2025 (UTC)

Let me know if there is any way I can help! I would also recommend joining our Discord. Globe (talk) 00:18, 13 June 2025 (UTC)

Exempted without invalidation

• Hi,you can help me my this wiki set up become to Exempted without invalidation? thanks.--Msnhinet8 (talk) 02:40, 2 July 2025 (UTC)

  @Msnhinet8 what do you mean by exempted? We don't exempt wikis from inactivity checks without a valid reason, although at this time inactivity checks are not performed while we still have the capacity to run the additional wikis. --zippybonzo (c • ca) 07:07, 2 July 2025 (UTC)

ok, thanks.--Msnhinet8 (talk) 08:14, 2 July 2025 (UTC)

Need some help!

Hello Globe! I am struggling to enable the "page preview" navigation feature for Dovepedia. You hover over a link, and it should display a page preview of the article. --LeicLass 07:09, 5 August 2025 (UTC)

Should be  Done. I’m on mobile right now and can’t test it myself, though. Let me know if you run into any issues. Globe (talk) 12:39, 5 August 2025 (UTC)

The navigation popup still isn't working. Also, my wiki logo and favicon isn't displaying! --LeicLass 03:17, 6 August 2025 (UTC)

I’m not sure why your popups aren’t working and I’ll look more into that. As for the logo/favicon, follow the instructions listed here. Globe (talk) 12:23, 6 August 2025 (UTC)

Need help

Need 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 '/'. --LeicLass 03:15, 8 August 2025 (UTC)

Problems with Count Duckula Wiki

I originally posted this on the community portal. I can't seem to do anything other than viewing on Count Duckula Wiki. I am logged in and have the permissions to change the wiki's settings, yet the Administration links aren't showing up. These issues could be why I can't access Special:Import nor Special:RequestImport. Should I create a task on Phorge, and if so, what should I report this issue as? —PinkPugPrincess (talk) 17:56, 20 August 2025 (UTC)

Please could you confirm that you are looking into this? These technical issues are also present on three other wikis, including Roger Rabbit Wiki. Edit: Zippy confirmed that this is being looked into, and I have created a task on Phorge. —PinkPugPrincess (talk) 11:44, 22 August 2025 (UTC)

• Hi in wikioasia May I apply for a wiki with multiple language versions like Wikipedia?--Msnhinet8 (talk) 03:04, 30 September 2025 (UTC)

Because I want to create an encyclopedia with multiple languages like Wikipedia, thanks.--Msnhinet8 (talk) 03:11, 30 September 2025 (UTC)

General-purpose Wikipedia-like encyclopedias in any language aren't accepted currently, I think. Tali64³ (talk) 03:26, 30 September 2025 (UTC)

ok, thanks.--Msnhinet8 (talk) 03:28, 30 September 2025 (UTC)

@Msnhinet8 It seems you already asked a similar question previously and got a response. Tester (talk) 03:49, 30 September 2025 (UTC)
