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)

''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 ==
 
 
 
So a redirect chain like Gold bars -> 40d:Gold bars -> 40d:metal is correct, don't change it. Emi
 
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. 
 
 
 
"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?
 
 
 
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)
 
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)
 
 
 
== Bot edit request ==
 
 
 
Could you change all of the non-namespace-specific article links in template pages to use [[template:L]]? This is going to be a problem soon. [[User:VengefulDonut|VengefulDonut]] 11:43, 2 April 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)
 
 
 
==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)
 
 
 
== [[Template:Alloy3]] ==
 
 
 
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)
 
 
 
==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)

: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.

== "Indent with space" box should be monospaced ==
 
 
 
If you indent with text with a space, like this:
 
 
 
BLAH BLAH
 
 
 
It uses a proportional font.  However, a lot of pages use it as if it was monospaced, which messes up the diagrams in them. Rather than changing all of them to use a diagram template, it'd probably be easier to change indent-with-space to use a monospaced font. -- [[User:Khym Chanur|Khym Chanur]] 01:06, 27 July 2011 (UTC)
 
 
 
:Okay, the problem is on my end.  For some reason, my browser doesn't accept the CSS "font-family: monospace;", but wants "font-family: mono;" instead. -- [[User:Khym Chanur|Khym Chanur]] 02:20, 27 July 2011 (UTC)

I'm familiar with Ruby on Rails and would love to get involved in any sort of project to hone my skills.
 
 
 
I am also an avid Dwarf Fortress fan ( :P Ok, so that much was probably already obvious) and would love to work on a project to contribute to the community. :-)

== Dwarf Fortress Talk ==
 
 
 
I've just noticed that this particular page has been deleted previously for being an orphan. Since I feel that the official podcast certainly deserves a page, and should be easily linkable to due to containing information, I wonder what the policy on orphans is - simply that no pages link there, or too few links? I've previously added a few links to Dwarf Fortress Talk in an article and an article draft not knowing it had been deleted, and haven't found anything under the deletion policy regarding orphans.<br>

:Thanks for the answer. I think I can come up with something, but I guess I'll be drafting up the page first.

== Update Problem ==
 
 
 
Chrome doesn't seem to be taking the update very nicely. It's downloading all the links as .gz files. [[Special:Contributions/67.2.140.63|67.2.140.63]] 08:49, 6 November 2011 (UTC)
 
 
 
:Yeah, this has been a big problem for me as well.  It looks like the people at Reddit had [http://www.reddit.com/r/chrome/comments/fo76s/i_think_weve_got_a_workaround_for_the_downloadgz/ a similar bug] for a while, but then fixed it; unfortunately, I haven't been able to find out how.  Temporarily disabling any Chrome extensions and/or Avast's shields has been a workaround for some people, though. --[[User:Igfig|Igfig]] 18:07, 24 November 2011 (UTC)
 
 
 
== Visual Preferences ==
 
 
 
Is there any possibility to revert back to the old look? I hate how it now looks like Wikipedia, but there's no other options in the preferences :c Or at least move the search box to it's proper place, please? Or better, tell me how to do it myself, that would be the best option. --[[User:Haspen|Haspen]] 20:10, 7 November 2011 (UTC)
 
 
 
== Error on main page ==
 
 
 
The main page fails to load properly; most of the page loads fine, but the title is simply "<databaseerror>"
 
and the page content is "<dberrortext>". There is also some crazy text at the top of the page, replacing the two rightmost buttons' text. Using Chrome 15.0.874.106 on Windows XP. [[Special:Contributions/92.21.231.136|92.21.231.136]] 21:46, 9 November 2011 (UTC)
 
 
 
Bit more: the crazy text on the buttons reads "&amp;lt;vector-view-viewsource&amp;gt;". Both buttons still link to the "edit" and "history" pages correctly, and only the main page is affected. [[Special:Contributions/92.21.231.136|92.21.231.136]] 21:50, 9 November 2011 (UTC)
 
:I'm not seeing any problems here - perhaps it's already been fixed. --[[User:Quietust|Quietust]] 03:53, 10 November 2011 (UTC)

== Problem with the new layout. ==
 
 
 
can you put the searchbox back to where it was?
 
 
 
or at least copy it over there?
 
 
 
== Personality_Traits sync to Therapist ==
 
 
 
http://df.magmawiki.com/index.php/DF2010:Personality_trait
 
 
 
Is there anyway to add another column to the Wiki table above to list traits as they are listed in Therapist, for clarity?
 
Example:
 
FRIENDLINESS(wiki) vs FRIENDLY(therapist)
 
EXCITEMENT_SEEKING(wiki) vs THRILLSEEKER(therapist)
 
ASSERTIVENESS(wiki) vs LEADERSHIP(therapist)
 
 
 
Ignore this if its been mentioned or meta changes will void the efforts.  Sincerely, Knutor
 
:I would argue that Dwarf Therapist is what should be updated to match the wiki, since the names on the wiki come directly from Dwarf Fortress itself (specifically, the tokens that can be specified in the raws). --[[User:Quietust|Quietust]] 03:33, 17 November 2011 (UTC)
 
 
 
Argue the point all you want.  But all that I sought here was another column for clarities sake.  Many players don't play DF, without Therapist, why penalize them all because a Dev is asleep on the job.  -Knutor
 
 
 
== New page? ==
 
 
 
I'd like to add redirects for [[Ticks]] and maybe [[Tick]] to point to [[Time]].

== MediaWiki 1.17 Download Problem ==
 
 
 
Hi, ever since you upgraded to 1.17 (last couple of weeks or so?), every time I go to a new page, there is a 60% chance that my browser will try to "download the page" (it appears in the current downloads bar at the bottom of my chrome browser). It is really irritating and is probably taking up hard drive space. Thank you very much for your attention to this problem. The wiki has been immeasurably helpful to me, and I trust you to remedy this so it may continue to be helpful in the future :) -[[User:Bennerman|Bennerman]] 17:07, 14 December 2011 (UTC)
 
:By any chance are you using Avast antivirus? --[[User:Quietust|Quietust]] 21:18, 14 December 2011 (UTC)
 
::As a matter of fact, I am. Why do you ask? --[[User:Bennerman|Bennerman]] 23:06, 16 December 2011 (UTC)
 
:::See [http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=96229.0 this forum thread] - apparently, it's a bug with Avast. --[[User:Quietust|Quietust]] 01:39, 17 December 2011 (UTC)
 
::::I am encountering the same problem, about 50% chance of downloading a .gz file instead of opening a page. Opening the .gz files (~10kb) shows a file as big as 168mb, which shows no content. I am using MS security essentials. After getting a .gz download, other page requests seem to hangup for a while (saving this page gave me 3 downloads before actually saving) --Sj 13:08, 7 Januari 2012 (CET)
 
 
 
== Why are there no skins except default Vector? ==
 
 
 
I personally really like 'Simple' skin, present at every MediaWiki-powered site I visit. AFAIK, the default skin set is constant among these sites, so why not here? :(
