Something wrong on the Forums
Today I got a message from someone on the forums and in the message box under the logo it says My Messages [1] and I replied to it already, it keeps saying I have a new message and there is none. The My Messages [1] won't ever change. I don't know what is wrong, can you help me? YoshiGo99

Dynamic Page Lists
They are gone.
Now since you've deleted (or was it because or MediaWiki uppdate?) some articles, including MarioWiki pages are now left with "Invalid tag extension name: dpl". Examples: Super Mario World (television series), MarioWiki:Personal Check/Personal Images. I hope you'll reinstall it. SWFlash
- It wasn't working after the update and was a little too heavy on the database. Let's see how we do without it. --Steve (talk) 10:05, 19 August 2011 (EDT)
- So, is there any hope that it will return? I'm asking, because Help:DPL is linked from most of the talk pages from welcome template, as well as being mentioned on Help:Contents. SWFlash
- I've removed those links. I'd really love for us to work around not having it so we don't need to add it again. --Steve (talk) 11:17, 19 August 2011 (EDT)
- Also broken stuff: MarioWiki:Changing username, MarioWiki:Pipe Plaza. Link that needs to be deleted: MarioWiki:Rules. Also, the Help:DPL needs to be either deleted or marked as "doesn't work anymore". SWFlash
- I've removed those links. I'd really love for us to work around not having it so we don't need to add it again. --Steve (talk) 11:17, 19 August 2011 (EDT)
Thumbnails
It seems the thumbnail for some of the large images (ex: this and one of the revision of this) does not display correctly. Mind investigating that? --Glowsquid 13:40, 20 August 2011 (EDT)
- I decided to revert back to using the MediaWiki default maximum image area for creating thumbnails: 12.5 million pixels or about 3500x3500. Reasoning is that this puts less of a strain on the server, and it's not like we're using images anywhere near this size on the actual article pages. I'll help resize and reupload. --Steve (talk) 14:33, 20 August 2011 (EDT)
Question
How did you get this whole (awesome) Porplemontage Enterprises idea? I'm curious. WikiofSmash"The EarthBounder" 20:02, 20 August 2011 (EDT)
- Well, I started picking up wikis with the formation of NIWA and wikis jumping ship from Wikia (as you know). "Porplemontage Enterprises" is just what I decided to call my collection of wikis since I wanted something like a portfolio to throw up on my porplemontage.com website. --Steve (talk) 20:32, 20 August 2011 (EDT)
Minor question.
Did you updated the wiki? Looks like the parameter cellspacing of the tables isn't working (unfortunately, that's the only error I've seen for now) and the galleries are no longer centered... do we have to center the galleries manually? Another question: why the collapsible boxes of my userpage doen't work? well, they do work only when I log in but not if I log out... is it posible to fix that? ¢oincoll€ctor
- I don't know why cellspacing wouldn't be working now; maybe you could link me to an example on that? The galleries would need the center tag to be centered, see Gallery:Super Mario Galaxy 2 vs. Gallery:Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story. I fixed your collapsible stuff; it was a matter of clearing the cache for that page. --Steve (talk) 01:47, 22 August 2011 (EDT)
Oh, wait... I think I see the problem of the cellspacing. It seems that the thumbnail thing of the images inside the tables show them like that. No problem, I'll fix it myself and as for the collapsible tables in my userpage, thanks. ¢oincoll€ctor

This isn't my business
But should a userpage be locked from editing if the user is editing it too much? Dr.Wario ''Those who risk, win.'' 15:24, 10 September 2011 (EDT)

I've noticed
The wikis you run are having downtime more often. Why is this? Dr.Wario ''In a big country, dreams leave you.'' 18:04, 11 September 2011 (EDT)
- Combination of a couple factors. A modification I made kept getting reset, but that shouldn't happen any more. I picked a bad day to do something, and I may want some more RAM. --Steve (talk) 18:40, 11 September 2011 (EDT)

Userpage help
Hi, I'm Pichi-Hime6, I just became Autoconfirmed yesterday,
and I would like some help with my userpage. I have no idea how
to edit it, upload a picture, create a userebox tower, ect.
I've tried looking on all the Help pages for that stuff, but I
just can't seem to be able to do anything. --That's Bohogos 16:18, 25 September 2011 (EDT)
- I couldn't explain a given topic better than the help pages already do. Click on your username, add text, and save. View the source of other userpages for an idea of how to do stuff like userbox towers. The file upload link is in the toolbox on the sidebar, and it's pretty self-explanatory: browse for a file and hit upload. --Steve (talk) 21:39, 25 September 2011 (EDT)
Oh, I finally got my page up. it looks pretty good, actually! Thanks for the tip on viewing the source that was a big help. Now all I need to do is figure out how to make my sig look really cool......... --That's Bohogos 20:06, 10 October 2011 (EDT)

A Moralising Tale
From #Bowserpedia. I was asked to do this.
Neptune99 topic Smasher, MCD. I'm sorry. Will you please consider coming back to Bowserpedia, so we can be good bros again?
ChanServ changed topic to Smasher, MCD. I'm sorry. Will you please consider coming back to Bowserpedia, so we can be good bros again?

UltraMario hoove
Neptune99 punches UltraMario
Neptune99 awww

UltraMario WHAT WAS THAT FOR
UltraMario D:<
MrConcreteDonkey <insert FiM-style moral here>
Neptune99 and that was the only way to get rid of the guilt
Neptune99 that or retiring
Neptune99 i actually did consider retirement, due to my long long past of not being able to say sorry
Neptune99 aww SM isn't there to be twilight to write a letter to princess celestia about the moral of this incident. :'(
Neptune99 i guess rarity can do it then.
Neptune99 SPIKE (Doomship), TAKE A NOTE
Neptune99 Dear princess celestia
Neptune99 Today, i have learned not to be too hasty when asking for a friend's help
UltraMario Princess Celestia = Porplemontage
Neptune99 And, together, we can slowly but surely bring bowserpedia to some sort of high point...that is if MCD and Smasher would like to come back

In unrelated news, can't the admins just ban KKR's IP? Or is he using different ones? He's incredibly annoying now. I'm sure everyone is fed up of seeing Recent Changes flooded by yet another KKR sock. One last question: Is he Plumber690 as well? I'm not sure. This Is War 12:27, 11 October 2011 (EDT)
- Sorry, Edo informed me that they probably have dynamic IPs. Sorry about that. This Is War 08:27, 16 October 2011 (EDT)
