I edited some stuffs about the game modifiers on Wiki...
I was thinking of adding a template about the detailed effects of the Game Modifiers, like how hard it is to play a beatmap with HardRock mod on (e.g: the milliseconds timing) or having a criticism section (look what happened to the description here lol). But I'm not good enough to play around with Wiki. :?

I Don't get it really, Adding \[ and \] to the preg_match (use mediawiki this way? don't know), and it should work.

Those characters are used for formatting links throughout the wiki. Having them in usernames causes *huge* issues throughout the codebase. You are likely underestimating how fickle mediawiki is, too. The best option is linking stripped usernames correctly to their osu! counterparts, but this will take a bit of effort.

it...automatically uppercase my username's first letter...
I wil see what I could do there and keep translation,that could be done even I am at work xD

You or another Russian user can create it yourselves. That's the idea of a wiki ;).
er... Namespace != an article with RU:, only bureaucrats can create them. If ones creates an article with RU:, and then a bureaucrat creates the same namespace, horrible things can happen.
I just want to be sure that creation of a namespace is not nesessary.

Categories are being used for languages at the moment, which I believe you can create.

i forgott this thing, well, this is really a bit tricky, likely an complete rewrite of the code (a bit huge, but like so :D).

not really worked with mediawiki yet, and i don't plan this in the future. but i know the size of the Wiki, so i can intruduce how difficult it is to rewrite it.



BTW: the The German CTB Text should by Ready Now :D

I slightly broke the user login system for names with spaces and will look at fixing it today.

That is how mediawiki works. I am looking at whether it is feasible to change this, but for now just bear with it please.

Are we allowed to further edit some content that's already there? I feel IRC isn't as informative as it could be.
Ephemeral
of course you are, that's the entire point of a wiki

Okay, I think we need to split up the Distance Snap and Spacing pages. For some odd reason, the Distance Snap page serves as the Spacing page, and this really makes little sense; the Distance Snap feature is a feature that suggests a spacing for you, while Spacing is simply the distance between two hit objects and is something you can write entire essays on. The distance snap spacing is not necessarily always the ideal spacing, and therefore combining the two pages is just confusing.

Also working on the Mapping Techniques page. I'll finish it up after Wednesday if it's still not done by then.

Wow... It doesn't let me connect anymore, I could before but now, I can't.

Function: User::addToDatabase

The French Taiko entry page for it will wait a little :l

I believe to have fixed the issue with usernames with underscores/special charaters. Please note that your wiki usernames will still have a capital first letter, but this is something I am willing to live with for now.

Report back if you are still having any problems.

Question -- will it be a problem if I wanted to add a hebrew translation, since it's a right-to-left language?

Give it a try and see how it goes.
Rei Hakurei
wait... why "ReiFan49" instead of "Rei_Fan49" ?
also, i can't login using "Rei Fan49" (previous ID) D:

EDIT:
1. is my previous ID was deleted ? http://osu.ppy.sh/wiki/User:Rei_fan49

Usernames as a result may have changed slightly. I am not sure if this will be the final implementation, but I don't think changes this early in the wiki setup will be too harmful.

I'm noticing that capitalization is a little inconsistent for example "Ranked beatmaps" and "Pending Beatmaps" which one is generally better to use?

Also, should the wiki be written informally with things such as "Don't worry!" and/or "Delicious normal difficulties"?
K2J
I've added a bunch of stuff to the Storyboarding category. I know I've been out of practice for a while, so feel free to correct what I wrote if it's wrong.
Randy96
I was wondering, with capitalization again, should "Ranking criteria" be "Ranking Criteria" because it's "THE" Ranking Criteria

Titles generally should use Capitals for Most Words.
