Curse?
You're not part of Curse. HotdogPi ⑬㊲ 23:15, 29 January 2013 (UTC)


 * Yes they are. Not all of the Curse wiki team is on every single wiki. They tend to focus on a few wikis rather than the entire team spread across all wikis. http://www.wikiswtor.com/User:Game_widow http://www.skyrimwiki.com/User:Game_widow http://www.falloutwiki.com/User:Game_widow  18:34, 30 January 2013 (UTC)


 * It would have been nice if the user had provided those links when creating their page. A new user claiming to be part of Curse without any evidence, not in the Curse rights group, and not on the Directors page, looked rather questionable. -- Orthotope 20:03, 30 January 2013 (UTC)

Install an extension
Hello im from the minecraft-es wiki. We want to install this extension.

Could you do it?

Thank you. --Trarsheise (talk) 09:34, 20 July 2014 (UTC)
 * No problem at all, I'll get that set up and let you know when it's active. — Game widow (talk) 14:38, 20 July 2014 (UTC)
 * And it's done. — Game widow (talk) 02:01, 21 July 2014 (UTC)

Gamepedia points/level
Hey Game widow, I know it's not a terribly important thing, but my profile still shows me as not having any Gamepedia points, and as a result, being at level 1, and it's shown this since the update in which it was first added. Does it appear correctly for others (viewing my profile while logged out shows the same thing, so I'm leaning towards "no"), or is there something deeper going on? 「 ディノ 奴 千？！ 」? · ☎ Dinoguy1000 20:28, 10 August 2014 (UTC)
 * I don't think the background process is actually done crawling through all the wikis and updating the information yet, but i'll check into it. I know my own profile is not up to date either — Game widow (talk) 11:35, 11 August 2014 (UTC)
 * Awesome, thanks. =) 「 ディノ 奴 千？！ 」? · ☎ Dinoguy1000 06:52, 12 August 2014 (UTC)

Add a group
Hello again,

I'm from the Spanish wiki and we want a new group called "Usuarios de confianza" with the right "autopatrol". Could you do it?

Thank you =) --Trarsheise (talk) 15:13, 12 August 2014 (UTC)
 * I believe so, I'll get back to you shortly — Game widow (talk) 15:57, 12 August 2014 (UTC)
 * I do believe it's done — Game widow (talk) 16:55, 12 August 2014 (UTC)
 * Great! Thanks a lot. --Trarsheise (talk) 19:15, 12 August 2014 (UTC)
 * EDIT: We have a little problem. Could you add a right for the group "burocratas" so they can add other users to the new group?
 * Thank you. --Trarsheise (talk) 16:59, 13 August 2014 (UTC)
 * Is this still not working for you, or are things working properly now? — Game widow (talk) 18:41, 14 August 2014 (UTC)
 * This is still not working. Image.
 * You can see it at es:Especial:ListaDerechosGrupos. At the group "Burócratas":
 * Agregar grupos(translate: add groups): Bots, Administradores y bureucrat
 * Eliminar grupos(translate: delete groups): Bots, Administradores, Burócratas, Usuarios, nopreviewrequire, directors y usuarios de confianza
 * I hope this help you ;)
 * Sorry about my bad english Trarsheise   ►Discusión◄►Contribuciones◄ 23:43, 14 August 2014 (UTC)
 * Yes, it helps, and i will look into it further — Game widow (talk) 03:08, 15 August 2014 (UTC)

Internal error when unwatching pages
Hello. These are the error messages returned when a user attempts to edit their watchlist. Reported by a user on the Russian wiki, I tested by trying to remove an entry from my watchlist (and received the same error messages) there and on this wiki.

Unwatching pages by clicking the Unwatch button in the page's options removes it from the watchlist without any errors.

--GreenStone (talk) 00:26, 23 August 2014 (UTC)
 * I have reported the issue to our Platform team — Game widow (talk) 00:40, 23 August 2014 (UTC)

2013 Minecon Cape contest
Hey Game widow, I just completed all but one of the "ways to enter" extra entry things (after no small amount of difficulty on my part) for the Enter to win a 2013 Minecon Cape contest, and it's now showing that I have 2111112 entries; refreshing the page hasn't changed this. I don't know if it's just a display bug and I only have 9 entries, or if something went seriously haywire and I really ended up with over 2 million, but if it's the latter, I'd really rather not be disqualified for something completely beyond my control. =) 「 ディノ 奴 千？！ 」? · ☎ Dinoguy1000 06:23, 23 August 2014 (UTC)
 * Don't worry, you would definitely not be disqualified for something that was not your fault. I'll look into it — Game widow (talk) 12:51, 23 August 2014 (UTC)
 * Aah, thanks! =D 「 ディノ 奴 千？！ 」? · ☎ Dinoguy1000 21:00, 23 August 2014 (UTC)
 * Seems it's fixed (it now shows me as having 9 entries); thanks for your help! =) 「 ディノ 奴 千？！ 」? · ☎ Dinoguy1000 08:33, 25 August 2014 (UTC)

About Chinese Minecraft Wiki
I've pinged minecraft-zh.gamepedia.com, I got 190.93.244.101. I found it is in Costa Rica. That's far away from China -- where most Chinese-speaker in. I know gamepedia use CloudFlare, and they have a panel point in Hong Kong. Could you switch the panel point to Hong Kong for Chinese Minecraft Wiki if possible?  a20001017 Talk 09:04, 25 August 2014 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure there's anything we can do about that, but i will ask — Game widow (talk) 12:18, 25 August 2014 (UTC)

About Bots
Hello Game widow!

How could I make a second account with the same email in order to create a bot account?

Trarsheise   ►Discusión◄►Contribuciones◄ 17:29, 2 September 2014 (UTC)
 * I'm afraid it isn't possible. You could create basically a dummy account on googlemail which redirects to your primary email address and use that. That's the only relatively easy workaround i can suggest. — Game widow (talk) 18:08, 2 September 2014 (UTC)


 * Thanks anyway, I'll do that. Trarsheise   ►Discusión◄►Contribuciones◄ 21:23, 2 September 2014 (UTC)

SyntaxHighlight GeSHi?
Could we finally have SyntaxHighlight GeSHi enabled? The original request/veto was almost three years ago, and with Lua, I believe it is more relevant than ever; it's not like the extension itself is unstable or the like, given the fact that it's been used on Wikimedia wikis - including the English Wikipedia - for close to a decade now, and has been bundled since MediaWiki 1.21. Thanks! 「 ディノ 奴 千？！ 」? · ☎ Dinoguy1000 04:57, 11 September 2014 (UTC)


 * Personally, I don't like GeSHi. Mainly because of its terrible class naming scheme which makes styling it difficult, but its also the sort of thing that I prefer to see done with JS. It gives you more control over what syntax it supports (no regex-based highlighter perfectly highlights all syntax), and you're not slowing down the page load waiting for it to parse a big script. I've been using Prism.js for ages and it works pretty well, and is really easy to extend (I added support for lua really easily) and theme. –Majr ᐸ Talk Contribs ⎜ 05:44, 11 September 2014 (UTC)
