[url=http://generic.website.here[/url][img]IMAGE LINK[/img][/url]
but i don't know how to do this on the wiki. anyone know how to, if more importantly, can you?

excellent. thanks for that :D

Should we block users for vandalism on wiki (only there, example)? If yes, for how long?
peppy
No, please report this to admins and they will be dealt with at a higher level.
[Dellirium]
Okay, then I have one more question
Can user edit wiki in restricted mode?
Because one could do it some time ago so it is possible to do some harm even in case of ban.
peppy
Not anymore.
[Dellirium]
Everything's fine then!
(exept js in the wiki still not working, hehe)

UPD:

really?

A question just in case. Can the wiki be upgraded to at least MediaWiki 1.19? Is mostly to request to install this extension (The other reason is that the current version installed has several vulnerabilities): https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Approved_Revs

It pretty much allows articles to have "approved revisions" which are shown in the article even if there edits in the future. Useful for important articles like Ranking Criterias and tournaments.

Or just give administrator rights to all approved users (Admins, BATs, Moderators, etc.) and then lock certain articles.

But updating the wiki is more preferable of course.

Some people seem to forget what the purpose of a wiki is.

If we wanted to display information then restrict and lock it, it would be in the form of a news post or forum post.
[Dellirium]
Some articles still shouldn't be open for everyone. [[Rules]], for example.

That's more tiring to keep tabs on that on the long run. I'm ok with admins having rights to edit protected articles.

Articles like the rules, the main page and templates that are used everywhere shouldn't be freely editable by everyone because of the disruption it can cause if someone vandalizes those pages, so all of those but the rules are currently locked.

Important articles that are begin used at the moment can be locked for any reasonable reason, like the OWC one that was locked at Loctav's request due to people vandalizing it.

In short, not every article should be editable by everyone. If there's a good reason to lock it (even if temporary), it can be locked.

Question. Is it possible to get the language ID of an article?
For example, I'd like to get "HK" in HK:Standard.
Repflez
Currently not, since they aren't in a real wiki namespace. It's possible to add a substring function to the wiki but is controlled by a setting in the configuration.
Nathanael
I see... I won't request to add it since the idea I'm thinking is not really important.
A translate template for mostly used words like "Names" in tables and such
Chaoslitz
so I think I have to ask here....
If anyone can tell me rather this table can be edited?

I started to add pages for some detailed information in mapping techniques, but I have no idea how different pages can group in this table together :/

Thanks.

Any error or something? Making a test page worked without errors.

(Extremely late reply) Done. Just added table formatting for it to ease comparison.

It looks that there's a new wave of Contributor badges since I found that I have the badge. I don't know who are the new ones but I went and added myself to the list. I really need to be more active on the wiki and the community but uni always gets me first :(

Oh, a little help here? I started working on it some weeks ago but didn't continued due to lack of information.
deadbeat
RaikireHiuduo added to that list as well. i'll see if i can get a list of when who given the badge and when

I was looking through the wiki and I noticed there isn't a page for the expert difficulty. Can someone please do this?

Three Two questions. Regarding osu! merchandises:-

1. Regarding the old http://market.ppy.sh/ page. [1] Is that page still active? [2] Can people still buy the hoddie/t-shirt/mugs sold there?

2. Regarding the image source for Sticker #1. [3] I need the post link. I found https://github.com/ppy/osu-artwork/commit/0c8029ac4a2d14d53dbbb76d343f0c2c9de89a18 but I do remember there is an announcement post of it. Link: https://osu.ppy.sh/forum/t/94466

For Mapping Techniques,


This is my current plan:-

1. C&P everything from forum to the template at their respective pages. Currently need to do page no.3 (41-60). Personally done in cold blood.
2. "#REDIRECT" work.
3. Sort them in Rhythm, Formations, Hit-circles, Slider Techniques. (Low priority)
4. Purge the orphan pages or short page remains of Mapping Techniques.

I need help in:-
1. The "C&P" work of page no.3 (41-60).
2. Getting lost image/update of the MT images. (13, 23, 38 [not needed I think?], 49, 54, 55)
3. "#REDIRECT" all 60 pages to no.1 (1-20), no.2 (21-40), or no.3 (41-60) to their respective header section.

Does someone know if it's possible to connect with Sublime Text 2 and the extension "Mediawiker" to the osu!wiki? If so, how? Would be handier to edit wiki articles.

username and password are the same as your osu! account

Remember to prefix ! on summary to get edits marked as minor.

Oh, thanks, the https to true was new for me but it still doesn't work. When I try to open a page it just opens an empty untitled page. No idea what I am still missing.

Tried to fix the Special:Preferences bug. It turns out that Common.js and Vector.js won't do anything on that page so I made it userscript.

Can someone add this userscript and test the page? It should work. https://gist.github.com/Repflez/7a68c28252e387f42042

Just did and it doesn't work for me, but I'm running Canary and that might be the reason.
EDIT: Okay, after some time spent on staring at the source of Special:Preferences and exploring w3schools.com (I don't know JavaScript at all) I managed to get it to work by fixing prefShowTab:

...
if ( id == selectedId ) {
prefTabLinks[id].parentElement.className = 'selected';
prefContentDivs[id].style.display = 'block';
} else {
prefTabLinks[id].parentElement.className = '';
prefContentDivs[id].style.display = 'none';
}
...

Wow you made the tabs work. I can't into Javascript too but they work. Thanks.
