Welcome to Main Page talk. This is where technical issues go. For all general questions, please visit the FAQ.

New Features

So much to say!

  • Special:EditCount – available to everyone and counts all edits, giving a breakdown by namespace.
  • Special:Patrol – Only to sysops & patrollers, goes through an edit diff one by one and gives you the options to accept, revert, or skip it.
  • Special:Chat – The biggie. The chat is now accessed through the wiki. It's on the sidebar if you haven't noticed yet.
  • MediaWiki Version: 1.8.2 → 1.10.0. New features:
    • On recent changes, +/- # of bytes that were added or removed to the size of the page is now seen. Total size of article in each revision seen in history page.
    • When protecting a page (sysops only), option to make the protection expire at a certain point, or use "cascading protection": all pages linked to the protected page will also be protected.
    • When a new article is created, and an edit summary is not specified, the default is the first 100 or so characters of the article.

I'll add more as I see them. Wa Yoshihead.png TC@Y 18:53, 13 May 2007 (EDT)

How is it stupid, its more under control.  XzelionETC

A chat under control is stupid. Chats were made to be free.  Plumber 

Then make a seprate room... Great Gonzo

So, Special:Patrol just takes the most recent page edited and let you see the difference? Is there a way to choose which pages you wish to see? --  Chris  01:48, 14 May 2007 (EDT)

So far I don't think you can control what pages are seen, and I got pages starting from May 9th. Wa Yoshihead.png TC@Y 18:34, 14 May 2007 (EDT)
I understand what the practical use of such a feature is, I just don't understand how we are to utilize it. --  Chris  20:41, 14 May 2007 (EDT)

Short Articles

Um can't we merged short articles to longer articles such as Apple For example?Cause with short articles like this it doesn't look good.F g 

FAs

Uh,I dont like the idea of cancelling the FAs and I dont care if the new enforced article standard will be, but I liked it better when we had FAs nomination,Then who's idea is to cancelled it?Any comments?F g 

Mine and Wayoshi. Apparently, no one was following the standards set up on THIS Wiki. - A Link to the Past 14:17, 15 May 2007 (EDT)

What does it mean by peer review?--Aipom_Banana_2.gif Aipom  

You know what Mr.Past? you simply irritate me.F g 

And not only that, but your negative comments here annoy me as well.F g 

Does it look like I care? You're complaining because articles not up to THIS Wiki's standards were labelled as such. Get over it. - A Link to the Past 15:45, 15 May 2007 (EDT)
