@TheAP Can you help me import it manually? This archive contains four files that should have the same content, but they differ in size, which might be a bug in the Fandom system. Please help me import them. https://www.mediafire.com/file/d78l78ur603dhep

import to 超理wiki --PandaFiredoge (talk) 08:58, 12 April 2025 (UTC)

A bug was previously discovered on Miraheze: if, during import, the option 'assign edits to local users with the same name' is selected, and the user has a global account on SkyWiki but no corresponding local account on the target wiki, then after the import, the user will be unable to log in. --PandaFiredoge (talk) 09:02, 12 April 2025 (UTC)

@TheAP How do I change the site name, as well as the names of the project and project_talk namespaces? I want to rename them from “超理 Wiki” to “锑星百科” (for compatibility reasons). PandaFiredoge (talk) 06:10, 14 April 2025 (UTC)

Visit Special:ManageWiki/Core on your wiki, and change the parameter from “超理 Wiki” to “锑星百科”.

To have your wiki appear on google search, you need to setup it through WikiSEO with Google Search Console. A guide is availabe here. The AP (talk) 19:17, 30 March 2025 (UTC)

Add Extension:NativeSvgHandler. GenerateDescription.php for countryhumans.skywiki.org.

I wondered why wikiseo didn't add the meta description to my wiki, and then I figured out that TextExtracts used the html heading of PortableInfobox as the real heading, resulting "first paragraph" has no content to extract, and wikiseo uses the first paragraph Extracts...

API Move Failure: Pages Stuck in NS0 on superscience.skywiki.org

Generated by Gemini 2.5 Pro!

Hello Administrators,

I'm writing to report a persistent and unusual issue on the wiki 锑星百科 regarding moving pages after the creation of a new namespace.

Summary of the Problem:

• Initially, a number of pages existed in the Main Namespace (NS 0) with titles following the pattern 超理文献:PAGENAME.
• A new custom namespace, [[Special:PrefixIndex/超理文献:|超理文献]], was successfully created. (API queries confirm this is Namespace ID: 3000).
• The goal was to move these pages from NS 0 into the new NS 3000, removing the "超理文献:" prefix from the page title (e.g., move page titled `超理文献:SomePage` in NS 0 to be titled `SomePage` in NS 3000).
• I attempted this move using the MediaWiki API move action via UserScript. Importantly, the script specifically used the fromid parameter to identify the source pages by their unique Page IDs.
• The API repeatedly reported success for the move operation for each affected page. No errors or warnings were returned in the API responses.
• However, the move operation consistently failed to actually execute. Subsequent checks (including direct API queries using action=query&prop=info&pageids=...) confirm that these pages still remain in the Main Namespace (NS 0) under their original full titles.
• Confirming this, API queries for the intended target titles within Namespace 3000 (e.g., action=query&prop=info&titles=超理文献:SomePage) correctly report these pages as missing in the target namespace. Attempting to view these pages directly also results in a "page has no content" message.

Affected Pages (Confirmed Stuck in NS 0):

Here is the list of the affected pages and their Page IDs, which the API falsely reported as successfully moved but are confirmed to still be in NS 0:

• Page ID: 3878, Title: 超理文献:《沙茶酱的声明》
• Page ID: 4215, Title: 超理文献:录金史
• Page ID: 4981, Title: 超理文献:氜气
• Page ID: 5550, Title: 超理文献:氡钨原
• Page ID: 3543, Title: 超理文献:氢氰酸之歌
• Page ID: 8025, Title: 超理文献:苏安可研究成果合集
• Page ID: 7483, Title: 超理文献:酰冰团之歌
• Page ID: 6360, Title: 超理文献:钅鸡铌锶世界纪录
• Page ID: 8270, Title: 超理文献:钅鸡铌锶世界纪录列表
• Page ID: 7819, Title: 超理文献:锑星成语词典
• Page ID: 7491, Title: 超理文献:阿米诺斯
• Page ID: 7971, Title: 超理文献:雷论/雷氏光学
• Page ID: 6087, Title: 超理文献:雷论/雷绍武回忆录

(Total: 13 pages confirmed)

Request:

It appears the standard MediaWiki API move functionality is encountering a significant issue or bug within this specific environment/scenario, causing it to fail silently while incorrectly reporting success.

Could you please assist by:

1. Investigating why the API move action (even when using fromid) fails to execute the database changes correctly under these circumstances, yet returns a success status.
2. Manually correcting the database records for the affected Page IDs listed above. This would require direct database access to update the relevant rows in the page table:
   • Change page_namespace from 0 to 3000.
   • Change page_title from 超理文献:PAGENAME to PAGENAME (i.e., remove the prefix).
   • Ensure associated data pointers (like page_latest) are correctly maintained/updated.

Direct database intervention seems to be the only viable path forward, as the API has proven unreliable for this specific task.

Please let me know if you need any more details or logs.

Thank you for your time and assistance! PandaFiredoge (talk) 12:29, 27 April 2025 (UTC)

"Could not open lock file" error when uploading a file in the Statistics Wiki

Whenever I try and upload a file in the Statistics Wiki, I get the error "Could not open lock file for "mwstore://local-backend/local-public/c/c7/Toasted_Clicker.png". Make sure your upload directory is configured correctly and your web server has permission to write to that directory." ToastedDev (talk) 07:39, 29 April 2025 (CEST)

Issues loading images

Some of the articles now have issues loading every image on an article at a time. For example: https://supermario.skywiki.org/wiki/Mario Gstar (talk) 20:00, 29 April 2025 (CEST)

Thumbnail generation failure

https://supermario.skywiki.org/wiki/File:WaxMario.jpg

As seen here, it's also refusing to generate thumbnails. I really hope this all gets fixed soon. Gstar (talk) 20:08, 29 April 2025 (CEST)

we are in the process of finding a resolution for this --Cocopuff2018 (talk) 20:09, 29 April 2025 (CEST)

Thank you! If it's resolved, will I have to manually reupload or will it auto-generate? Gstar (talk) 20:13, 29 April 2025 (CEST)

Please let me know when this is fixed. I check Meta daily. Gstar (talk) 20:56, 29 April 2025 (CEST)
