Minecraft Wiki talk:Admin noticeboard

Cite note labels
Can an administrator create the page MediaWiki:Cite link label group-note to basically be the same as wikipedia:MediaWiki:Cite link label group-lower-alpha? This would allow notes to appear as "a, b, c, etc." instead of "note 1, note 2, note 3, etc.", which would read better and be more compact. We really do not need the rest of the groups used by Wikipedia here here (we only have at most one group of notes per section), and "note" is the group we use for all our notes, so it makes sense to apply the labels there.

Also, is there an official usage of this page? (as opposed to the main noticeboard) I tend to think of this page as a place to discuss an idea that requires administrative attention, rather than an issue to report, though I feel the official usage may be different.

 * Also, to allow the list style to display the "a, b, c, etc.", I would need the following code in MediaWiki:Common.css to correspond to a class to be added to the template. The code is similar to some code from wikipedia:MediaWiki:Common.css.

 /* Enable custom list style types in Template:Notelist */ div.notelist ol.references { list-style-type: inherit; }

 * I dunno. Note is good because it makes it obviously different from references. You could use n if you want it to be short.
 * Also this page is intended to be used for discussing a request on the main page, but no one uses it for that because it's inconvenient. –Majr ᐸ Talk Contribs 03:23, 4 April 2015 (UTC)

Link Templates
I changed the template "EnvLink" so that it doesn't use Lua, but functions exactly the same. I would like same for BlockSprite, ItemSprite, and EntitySprite, but these templates are protected so that only administrators (which I am not) can edit them. –Preceding unsigned comment was added by Contrapple (talk • contribs) at 23:07, 23 March 2015 (UTC).

 * EnvSprite still uses lua, so all you did was break some usage and make it less efficient, and not using lua is usually not really an advantage (SimpleGrid was an exception, since grid could not be used in that case due to too many invoke calls, which was fixed by :Renewable resource/row) – KnightMiner  · (t) 23:33, 23 March 2015 (UTC)

Wiki updated, unable to view while logged in
My name is Exhelah, and I can no longer view the Minecraft wiki when logged in. As soon as I sign in all I see is a 10 pixel box that's half white and half gray. I believe this to be a problem with my custom CSS file in correlation to recent wiki updates (my CSS is designed to hide a bunch of stuff on the top bar that no longer exists). And since I cannot even look at the wiki while logged in I can't put a deletion tag on the page. Can an admin please delete my CSS to see if it fixes the problem? Thanks! -98.202.119.245 23:20, 28 April 2015 (UTC)


 * Should be fixed, you may want to update to the latest version from User:Majr/hydra.css. -- Orthotopetalk 00:04, 29 April 2015 (UTC)


 * Thank you. All fixed now! I'll go and check out Majr's thing. - Exhelah t - c 21:57, 29 April 2015 (UTC)

Modules
I notice that there is no "Show preview" button in the module namespace, meaning that unregistered users can't edit them, even if they are not protected. Can an administrator change this? 67.160.25.176 22:48, 21 May 2015 (UTC)


 * Create an account. – LauraFi -  talk  23:37, 21 May 2015 (UTC)


 * I mean a way to do it without logging in. I plan to create an account in the future, but I don't currently have email. 71.212.10.80 01:52, 22 May 2015 (UTC)
