Report any namespace-migration problems here.


  • A number of DF2014 pages are still missing (the wanted pages list would be useful here if it wasn't crammed full of missing masterwork pages). (ex. DF2014:Brain‏‎, DF2014:Attributes, DF2014:Pump stack, etc.)
    • We intentionally did not migrate any redirects, just to be sure everything was working properly. I will probably go through and migrate redirects tonight. --Briess (talk) 22:07, 9 July 2014 (UTC)
      • Copying over the redirects is a lot of manual work that could have been easily automated. In the mean time, editors are fixing the plethora of red links in different ways, resulting in a hodge-podge of "solutions" that may cause problems down the road.--Loci (talk) 19:11, 11 July 2014 (UTC)
  • The {{UtilityVersion}} template is claiming 40.01 is an "older version" on utility pages.
    • This is functioning correctly. It will say older version until an editor updates the page for the most recent version.
      • The older version note is right, but the note claiming the page was for version 40.01 was incorrect. It should have claimed version 34.11, but a bug in the {{nsv}} template was causing it to return the current version for unrecognized input. I have fixed the template to be more discerning.--Loci (talk) 19:11, 11 July 2014 (UTC)
  • Redirects like v0.34:Animal need to be fixed. Besides categories are displayed as empty, but this seems to be normal lag. BartekChom (talk) 19:28, 11 July 2014 (UTC)
  • Anyone have an idea why Special:List of redirects shows almost all redirects going to the v0.34 namespace? I'm fairly sure this is either the origin or a symptom of the problems with redirects I've been encountering. Brightgalrs (talk) 19:29, 14 July 2014 (UTC)
    • Isn't there a wiki extension used here that redirects from the Main namespace to the appropriate versioned one? Maybe something about that is improperly redirecting to the old version's pages. —Lue (talk) 00:03, 18 July 2014 (UTC)
      • It's most likely another cache issue - I'll see if rebuilding the links table fixes it. —Lethosor (talk) 21:10, 21 July 2014 (UTC)

Cache problem, fixed. —Lethosor (talk) 02:40, 7 August 2014 (UTC)
  • Is there anything I can do to fix redirects (such as World Generation (not World generation)) when they redirect to v0.34 instead of DF2014? Or is this just something that requires more purging of the cache(s)? —Lue (talk) 03:48, 10 August 2014 (UTC)
  • Capitalization-only redirects can safely be deleted - they're handled automatically now. If you run across others like this, or ones that don't follow the redirect policy, feel free to tag them with {{delete}} or {{bad redirect}} and I can take care of them. —Lethosor (talk) 12:12, 10 August 2014 (UTC)
