== Empty DF:2012 Articles ==
+
== Captcha ==
  
Hello, I'd like to offer a few suggestions:
+
The wiki system is set up to autoconfirm a user after 3 days of existence as a registered user.  Once that's done, you'll never have to enter a captcha again. (also, it's not possible, even as an admin / bureaucrat to manually add a user to the autoconfirmed group, sorry) --[[User:Briess|Briess]] 07:37, 13 March 2010 (UTC)
* Could the bot which went through and replaced all the v0.31 article links with DF:2012 links be modified to actually create those articles with a <nowiki>{{av}}</nowiki> template inserted, so that users can reference an older version easily while understanding that it could be outdated?
 
* Could a bot be created to go through all the current dead links and create those articles and place a <nowiki>{{av}}</nowiki> template within them?
 
* Failing that, I'd be willing to volunteer for this; I understand that I should talk to you for article creation. In that case, would I have to present you with a list of articles to be created?

''Two dozen'' consecutive edits? "Preview" just not a possibility?--[[User:Albedo|Albedo]] 20:14, 17 March 2010 (UTC)
  
 +
== cv ==
 +
So, forgive my continuing ignorance, but once the changeover happens, "cv" will then become whatever version 2010 is, right? And if so, how do we then distinguish between redirects appropriate only to the 40d legacy articles (which are currently being "corrected" using CV) and those that should go to the then truly "current version" 2010 articles?--[[User:Albedo|Albedo]] 21:45, 21 March 2010 (UTC)
  
 +
== search terms and redirects ==
  
== PROBLEM ==
+
So a redirect chain like Gold bars -> 40d:Gold bars -> 40d:metal is correct, don't change it. Emi
since you "upgraded" the wiki, sometimes when i try to load a page, any kind of page in the wiki, instead of loading the page, my browser (chrome) starts downloading a file like this:    DF2010-Magma.gz
+
Hi. I'm ''sure'' what you meant was to ask ''"Why did you delete that?"'', and not presume to lecture me about how redirects work.  And my response would be - ''"Why did you create it?"''  Because I didn't "change" it, I ''deleted'' it - and there's a difference, and a difference in the reasoning behind each.
the file never ends downloading and it contains nothing, so i dont know whats the deal with that, sometime is loads teh page as usual
 
*Take a look at [http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=96229.0 this forum thread] - most cases seem to result from using Avast Antivirus along with Google Chrome. --[[User:Quietust|Quietust]] 00:38, 10 February 2012 (UTC)
 
  
 +
"Gold bars" is not really a term to link from, just not appropriate for a page title.  It's not a term likely to be typed in to the search window, nor is it a wiki-article title in game terms. [[Gold]] is a perfectly valid (and existing) search term, and [[bars]] are as well, but not in the sense of "gold bars", unless you are [[construction|constructing]] horizontal or vertical bars from a single '''[[bar]]''' of [[gold]] ("bars" of gold being distinct from a "bar" of gold, for better or worse).  And it's not usually a policy to create redirects, even Search redirects, based on erroneous understandings of the layout of the wiki.  (If so, "silver bars", "copper bars", "bismuth bronze battle axe" and "narrow giant cave spider silk trousers" could all be included by some well meaning user based on one User's example - and that's more work than I want. Or any Admin.)  More, "gold bars" is plural, which breaks yet another rule.  So why, pray, do we need it in the first place?  Lastly, if "gold bars" ''were'' a valid search or redirect term, I would think it should redirect to either "bar", the item (to clarify what a "bar" is, gold or not), or "gold" (the [[material]], to address that aspect), rather than [[metal]], which doesn't address the actual term, but is only a generally related umbrella article - but that confusion gets back to the reason I deleted it in the first place.  I didn't even notice it was you that had created that page, but if I had I would have asked you this before deleting it.  So... since we're here, why ''did'' you see a need to create it in the first place?
  
== Upload Button Missing ==
+
And while we're on the subject, you seem to be fairly enthusiastic about redirecting every game term to cv:game term - even if they are NOT version specific. You may want to slow down before hitting every last one, since things like [[acronym]]s and such will then have to be tracked down and returned to mainspace existence. Several in the long, long list on [[:Category:Obsolete]] seem more than a bit suspect, but I suppose now that it's done only the new version will prove them so or not. --[[User:Albedo|Albedo]] 02:47, 27 March 2010 (UTC)
Hello. I've uploaded [[http://dwarffortresswiki.org/index.php/File:DA_Quarters.JPG,stuff]] before, but the upload link seems to have vanished for me. (I'd like to upload a small .exe file which makes the depot tradeing semi-automated so I can link to it from my user page.) What should I do?
+
I agree that it's maybe a silly redirect, however, right now I am making sure
 +
these redirects all work properly
 +
Use some discretion. I saw a page marked N(ew), and it didn't belong. If you recognize it as "silly", then don't go to the trouble to perpetuate it.   And allow me to make something else clear that you should understand. Before you replace a page that Admin has deleted, you should ask them "why?" first. Thanks so much for your understanding on that last point.--[[User:Albedo|Albedo]] 03:07, 27 March 2010 (UTC)
 +
Discretion only slows down serializable tasks like the one I was doing. It's much easier to follow the
 +
same pattern over and over and then go back and do all the stuff necessary to remove a silly redirect
 +
So you are going to cover all those "silly" redirects that require it? Reassuring to hear - so long as someone has it covered, no problem then.--[[User:Albedo|Albedo]] 03:18, 27 March 2010 (UTC)
 +
Also, because there's no real reason not to have most of these redirects, it's silly to bother 
 +
checking each one before fixing them. If the admins at this wiki are of the "I'm an admin, so my
 +
word is law" attitude, I'm not sure this is a place I want to be.
 +
If that were the case, I would have simply acted high-handed and slapped you and not explained my reasoning - but we both know I didn't, so I'm left wondering why you even mention it. Meanwhile, I'm still waiting for ''your'' reason for replacing the page that an Admin deleted rather than asking them why they did it. Even if you ''were'' Admin, do you think that is a good approach to the situation?--[[User:Albedo|Albedo]] 03:24, 27 March 2010 (UTC)
 +
I didn't notice that you had deleted it until after I had recreated it.
 +
I see.
 +
I ask again if you use either of those other communication methods...
 +
it's much easier to work these things out in real time.
 +
No, sorry. And as Admin of this wiki, I feel it's important to use this format to work these things out. Which (I hope) we've now done. Readya later.--[[User:Albedo|Albedo]] 17:45, 28 March 2010 (UTC)

== EmiBot's Standing Orders ==
 +
Will it do that daily/hourly? B/c new pages are flying up without it. I agree it's overly long, and I thought about that, but it'll only be long for these first few days, until the immediate flurry has calmed a bit, then we back off. Right now, it's amateur hour out there, so any help is a good thing in those directions.  (No automatic fixes? Urgh -that's a LOT of manual...) :P --[[User:Albedo|Albedo]] 20:08, 2 April 2010 (UTC)<br />

Again, I find myself waiting on an answer to my question while you focus on your own agenda - still waiting, thanks.--[[User:Albedo|Albedo]] 21:06, 2 April 2010 (UTC)
  
Why can't I create new pages? I want to create a page about normal eagles.
+
==Deletion Template==
 +
I explained my reasoning on the talk page, but in short: (1)The mod is not at all notable.  (I am not willing to claim a notable mod would not deserve a page on its own, but this is a mod that adds 4 creatures and no one talks about - hardly deserving of a page).  (2) There is only one relevant piece of information about this mod - where it can be found.  (3) The page doesn't even include that information, and is thus useless.  (4) A link to the mod on DFFD or its forum thread, and a very short blurb ("adds 4 new mega beasts") should be added to a general mod page if the mod is going to have a presence on the wiki. --[[User:Squirrelloid|Squirrelloid]] 05:43, 5 April 2010 (UTC)
 +
:Ah, sure, i can do that.  I honestly just took a stab in the dark that deletion was the right template, and didn't actually know there were options... la la la? --[[User:Squirrelloid|Squirrelloid]] 06:39, 5 April 2010 (UTC)
  
: This wiki is going through a lot now. New name space for the latest DF version has been created and articles are copied to it, as far as they are still valid for the new version. Also this wiki's cluster size has been increased by two new servers and many things around it are being configured. So I think the admins just prohibited new article creation for a while until they sort things out. --[[User:Nagidal|Nagidal]] 17:31, 19 February 2012 (UTC)
+
== [[Template:Alloy3]] ==
  
: I've seen Briss has created the Eagle page, maybe it's so that you can fill it with content. --[[User:Nagidal|Nagidal]] 18:50, 19 February 2012 (UTC)
+
I wasn't sure who to mention this to, and I apologize if it has already been noted, but this template is in use on 40d pages while the link built into the template for [[construction]] links to the "2010" namespace. Not sure what the best way to fix it would be, as I assume that the template will continue to be used. --[[User:Soy|Soy]] 16:10, 5 April 2010 (UTC)
 +
:Thanks for looking into that! However, it looks like this is going to be an issue with a lot of the existing templates that are used across both versions. I think I see what your fix does and if I get some free time this evening I would be happy to try to update what I can find unless you can think of any negative impact it would have. -- [[User:Soy|Soy]] 19:32, 5 April 2010 (UTC)
  
== a namespace just for me? ==
+
==nm==
 +
Yeah, I spoke before I read his talk page.  And I remembered it as CMD.  And he's right in that that's how it "should" be - the fact that it's not how it is in-game just an awkward DF reality. Altho', I see it as a style issue, not a coding issue.--[[User:Albedo|Albedo]] 02:36, 8 April 2010 (UTC)
 +
I probably still would have argued for Cmd with a redirect from CMD.
 +
That's not an issue to take up over one page - that's a global style issue, and would change the established, existing guidelines on [[Dwarf_Fortress_Wiki:Community_Portal]]. (Not that I wouldn't mind seeing some change, but (unsurprisingly) mine are style-based critiques.) --[[User:Albedo|Albedo]] 02:39, 8 April 2010 (UTC)

: A namespace is not the same as a user page. I'm almost sure you can't have a namespace just for you, but you can certainly have your own userpage where you can set up your own sandbox. I have created you your userpage, just click on the link on your name in the signature. You can start forging some good articles on your userpage. --[[User:Nagidal|Nagidal]] 23:46, 19 February 2012 (UTC)

:Personally, i would've gone for a template that marks an ip, or user. Maybe like it being called UserReport, or Report, and then people could do the template thing to report a user. Not sure how that could be coded in, but it could allow administrators to be more warned and prepared to provide a look at the ip. To be honest, all these spambots are just strange.

I, err, don't play the ANSI version.  Only tried it once for about five minutes.  Ever since then, I've downloaded versions with the graphics pre-installed.  So I'm not sure what a Dwarven Bathtub looks like if you use the default tiles?  The image is only used on the {{L|cleaning}} page, so it's not like there's a lot to change, though.  The only thing I'm sure about is that the ramps are the same in both.  [[User:Uristocrat|Uristocrat]] 09:16, 1 March 2011 (UTC)

:It seems like the wiki is a bit buggy in this regard. On [[Special:ListGroupRights]], only Administrators have the "createtalk" permission, which seems to be required to create talk pages. However, I was just able to create [[DF2012 Talk:Sedimentary layer]], but only after several attempts failing from a Permission error. Sometimes it would stop me immediately upon clicking the "Create" tab, and it always seemed to happen when I tried to Show Changes. I'm not really sure why this would happen, unless we're running on multiple servers and the configuration isn't synchronized. Hope this helps. --[[User:Timrem|timrem]] 21:26, 4 August 2012 (UTC)

== Stockpile setting info ==
 
 
 
Here's something I've been thinking to add to the wiki for a couple of months now, but am not really sure what would be the best way to do it. I often set up fairly specialized stockpiles. For instance a stockpile only for seeds, another one for picks, and yet another only for empty bags (but not chests). When I was new to the game I did not know how to do these things. I expected to find the info how to set up a stockpile just for one kind of an item in the item's respective wiki page. Sometimes I was lucky, sometimes not.
 
 
 
Most furnitures have a piece of text about such stockpile setting somewhere in the article or at least a hint, e.g. in [[Cage]]s you can read that "Cages are stored on the Animal Stockpile." In [[Seed]]s, however, there's nothing that tells you that they are in the Food stockpile, and the [[Pick]] page redirects to [[Equipment]] which doesn't say anything about a stockpile for picks either.
 
 
 
Let's see an example of a stockpile setting info I'd like to see about bags:
 
 
 
: Stockpile of Bags: Furniture > Types > boxes and bags. Disable Stone/Clay and Metal. Restrict Other Materials to cloth, leather, silk, yarn."
 
 
 
I'll probably find a better way to express it, I'll have to see that it looks more or less the same across wiki pages, too.
 
 
 
Three ways how to add this information to the wiki came to my mind, all have their pros and cons:
 
 
 
: '''1.''' A stockpile setting overview page. Basically a table of all the stockpile categories, subcategories, and item entries from the stockpile setting page ({{k|p}}-{{k|t}}) and tell the users to find (Ctrl-F) the item somewhere on the page.
 
:: '''Pro:''' Done quickly.
 
:: '''Con:''' I assume people would rather expect to find the stockpile setting info in the item's dedicated page and would not think of looking for it in a stockpile setting page. Also, users should not be bothered with a search in page.
 
 
 
: '''2.''' Adding a "Stockpile" section to the <nowiki>{{furniture}}</nowiki> float, where people could see how to set it up.
 
:: '''Pro:''' Stockpile setting would be found extremely easily.
 
:: '''Con:''' No solution for non-furniture items.
 
:: '''Con:''' Would contain too much text in some cases (e.g. for bags you need to restrict the material to differentiate them from coffers or chests).
 
 
 
: '''3.''' Each item which can have its individual stockpile could have its own wiki page with a "Stockpile setting" section (or maybe a <nowiki>{{stockpile}}</nowiki> float?) where you could see this kind of information.
 
:: '''Pro:''' Stockpile setting would be found easily. People would soon realize that every item which can have a dedicated stockpile has its own wiki page which has a section where they find the stockpile setting.
 
:: '''Con:''' Requires many new pages to be created, but most of them would not contain much other information except for how to set an individual stockpile for them.  Here I'm thinking of pages like [[Plump helmet spawn]], [[Hood]], [[Raw skin]].
 
 
 
Personally, I would go with solution '''3'''. I see that it is unnecessary to have an individual wiki page for each of the hundreds of animal species you can see listed in the Animal stockpile. Yet I think we should differentiate all the non-animal items as deep as [[skull]] is in the refuse stockpile, or each individual weapon is in the weapon stockpile.
 
 
 
So what do you guys think? Do you have any other ideas how and where to save this stockpile setting information in the wiki? Would you mind me starting to add a "Stockpile settings" section to the items' pages and creating new pages where there are redirects or no pages? I admit it would look a bit weird if there were a page about an item but no other info on it except for a stockpile setting. On the other hand this could motivate other active users to add something more.

This text seems inaccurate with 2012 on the DF2012:Container page: (any of these 4 container types can be used to satisfy the "Needs: X Chests" requirement for nobles).
 
 
 
There is no Discussion page for Containers. I'm a fairly inexperienced player and just got my first Mayor who demanded two chests and a cabinet. Based on the above text I made three rock cabinets and after placing them it did not satisfy the 2 chests requirement. When I made two metal chests and placed them the requirement was met.
 
 
 
Since there's no discussion page, should I just edit the page and remove that line or put a note next to it that says this may not be accurate?

:I figured out (after RTFM) that I just had to made three edits to upload files, so that's cool now.  However, what are requirements for getting permissions to create pages?

== Using This Wiki In My App ==
+
== search error ==
  
Hi Emi, was wondering if its okay for me to use data from this wiki in my android wiki app (which would be called Dwarf Fortress Wiki)? If anything, I can include copyright notes or any other required thing.
+
searching for "plant/animal" generates quite a few lines of "Warning: preg_match() [function.preg-match]: Unknown modifier 'a' in /var/www/dfwiki/includes/SearchEngine.php on line 1169"
Thanks!
 
:Hey, to the extent that it can be (e.g. game data files are a notable exception) everything on the wiki is covered under the GNU FDL. As long as you follow that license, you can generally use any content from this website (again, there are some exceptions, and usually they are noted). However, please do not call the app "Dwarf Fortress Wiki", since I'd like to avoid confusion as to how closely the app is related to the wiki.

== Wiki is being messed with ==

I want to have a user page - I've been doing some logic work on the forums (see [http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=86316 here] for the details so far), and I wish to be able to post designs on my user page temporarily, and/or for the more specialized logic (JK/T/D flip-flops; (de)multiplexers, et cetera. Can you please set this up for me?
  
Left this in the forums, but figure I'll leave it here too in case you check this more often:
+
Also, is there anything that you want me to do? I like doing minor editing, and also like doing logic-based things.
  
Looks like someone is messing with the wiki. Several pages are displaying a floating box with the text "I HATE N****RS" and several other pages have the goatse image edited in at the top. I haven't figured out how to block the float box with uBlock yet, but I'm not very good at html, so. Ya might want to freeze edits to the wiki for a minute.

(reply?) Hi Emi, I'm a random person who happened to see that the wiki was being vandalised and was looking for a place to report it / make it aware to moderators. I saw that you banned the first person, but then I noticed a series of new accounts created shortly after That first one was banned. They were all created within a few minutes of eachother, which I saw in the account creation logs page. So just wanted make you aware of that in case you didn't see that as well. Sorry If I'm not supposed to be editing other peoples talk page?

== Sidebar broken on Konqueror? ==
:I did notice that, I’m keeping an eye on them. :) And this is exactly what talk pages are for! [[user:Emi|<span style="color:#8a4e4e">Emi</span>]] [[user_talk:Emi|<span style="color:#6a3e4e">[T]</span>]] 00:16, 19 January 2023 (UTC)
 
  
Hey Emi. I highly recommend [[mediawikiwiki:Manual:RevisionDelete|enabling RevisionDelete]] if it isn't already and [[mediawikiwiki:Help:RevisionDelete|hide the edits]] made by the individual. This would prevent regular users and the public from having access to the offensive texts through the history or recent changes pages. - [[User:Doorkeeper|Doorkeeper]] 11:49, 19 January 2023 (UTC)

See [http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=85834 here] - basically the sidebar is pushed to down below the bottom of the page.
:Looks like it's already being looked into on discord. Sorry - [[User:Doorkeeper|Doorkeeper]] 11:59, 19 January 2023 (UTC)
