-Just a page for general OrbiterWiki discussions (for keeping the [[Talk:Main Page]] related to the main page).
+FUCK YOU URWUMPE

-== Suggestions ==
-I've got a couple of suggestions regarding this wiki:
-# <span style="color:red">(done)</span> Archive all the stuff we have on Village pump
-# <span style="color:red">(done)</span> Change the random addon voting: instead of casting votes, just list each one exactly once. Otherwise newly added addons are shown less often, and that's not very fair.
-# Write the words OrbiterWiki across the logo (I can upload some of my attempts)
-# Change the wiki back to case-insensitive. The development to make it _fully_ case insensitive never materialised obviously, so rather than sticking with the (as I see it) inconvenient _fully_ case sensitive we would be better off using the standard case sensitivity mode (same as Wikipedia)
-I'll do all of these things if no-one complains :) --[[User:RaMan|RaMan]] 17:13, 11 February 2008 (UTC)
-:Can you also check if the display of categories is still active? I just tested it and noticed that no article shows the category - though it should. --[[User:Urwumpe|Urwumpe]] 08:28, 12 February 2008 (UTC)
-:: Fixed. --[[User:RaMan|RaMan]] 23:16, 13 February 2008 (UTC)
-== Database error when banning registered user ==
-Database error when banning users:
-<pre>
-A database query syntax error has occurred. This may indicate a bug in the software. The last attempted database query was:
-    (SQL query hidden)
-from within function "Parser::replaceLinkHolders". MySQL returned error "1271: Illegal mix of collations for operation ' IN ' (localhost)".
-</pre>
---[[User:Urwumpe|Urwumpe]] 01:15, 17 February 2008 (UTC)
-:Will check this out asap. --[[User:RaMan|RaMan]] 21:53, 18 February 2008 (UTC)
-::Hmm it works for me. Might have been a temporary glitch. Post back if it happens again. --[[User:RaMan|RaMan]] 22:11, 18 February 2008 (UTC)
-:::I have the same error report now, when trying to access the article [[Ganymede]]. --[[User:Urwumpe|Urwumpe]] 10:28, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
-::::Confirmed, will be fixed soon. --[[User:RaMan|RaMan]] 12:38, 12 April 2008 (BST)
-== Bot users ==
-We have a large number of bot users around from looking into the user list, is there a way to remove them from the user list? I can only ban those directly, who are active, which means we have a large number of sleeping bot accounts in our wiki. --[[User:Urwumpe|Urwumpe]] 12:01, 11 March 2008 (UTC)
-: I could purge all users having 0 edits easily. With a bit of thought and SQL magic I might be able to purge all users who have all their edits marked as vandalism - not sure how hard this would be though. --[[User:RaMan|RaMan]] 12:40, 12 April 2008 (BST)
-== The latest vandalism and sock puppetry ==
-After a short study of the matter on Wikipedia, I have two questions and I want really good answers:
-What has [[User:Gerald Gonzales]]/[[User:Gerald Gonzalez]]/[[User:UrwumpeSHIT]]/[[User:FUCK YOU URWUMPE]],  to do with [[User:Ouch]]/Unknownquinones and [[User:CWii]]?
-And can I have CheckUser[http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:CheckUser] capability installed?
-:Will do. --[[User:RaMan|RaMan]] 13:03, 13 July 2008 (BST)
-Why I have this question? Follow these links:
-#Start here:[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Suspected_sock_puppets/Gerald_Gonzalez]
-#Go there:[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Gerald_Gonzalez]
-#Read the last entry and go there:[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Unknownquinones]
-#And finally locate:[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:CWii]
-I want really good answers.
-As long as this case is still open, I suppose not extending the user rights of anybody.

-:Read [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:Unknownquinones&oldid=219248563#Tex this] as to who unknownquinones is. I would say Cwii just got 'Gerald' mad at him, and that Cwii, knowing that Gerald had been here, came and reverted his edits here as well. That said, I don't know for sure, I can find out more later today. [[User:To be|To be]] 20:07, 21 June 2008 (BST)
-::Thank you, I will remember this one. What ever this whole mess is about, OrbiterWiki is not going to be a battlefield for brain-dead teenagers. Looks like the measures by DanSteph and Tex had been more visionary than mine here.--[[User:Urwumpe|Urwumpe]] 21:09, 21 June 2008 (BST)
-:::I am 90% sure his IP is (or at least was) 121.54.108.42. [[User:To be|To be]] 19:11, 23 June 2008 (BST)
-::::I am 100% sure banning a single wireless broadband Internet provider IP will be ''very'' effective. The full network is 121.54.0.0/15. Without statistical knowledge of the access point(s) used, this will not improve the situation. I work on it. --[[User:Urwumpe|Urwumpe]] 19:51, 23 June 2008 (BST)
-::::Got the confirmation on the address I needed. Lets hope the explicit IP ban works. --[[User:Urwumpe|Urwumpe]] 21:05, 23 June 2008 (BST)
-:::::I wouldn't have told you the IP if I wasn't confident it was static. [[User:To be|To be]] 23:20, 23 June 2008 (BST)
