Wiki restricted setting change requests
Welcome to restricted wiki setting changes requests!

This page can be used to request that Stewards change a setting that is restricted and cannot be changed by bureaucrats, including generation of image dumps on Special:DataDump, enabling or disabling extensions that require a Steward to enable them (such as Cargo, Semantic MediaWiki).


To make a request, copy the following code and place it at the very bottom of this page. Replace every section as needed:

== <Name of wiki> ==
{{SN wiki request
|status = <!-- Do not remove this! -->
|request = Enable <extension> or Change <restricted setting> 
|wiki    = <!-- subdomain of wiki -->
|reason = <!-- reason --> ~~~~
|discussion= <!-- link to discussion, if any -->
}}

Requests

Kagaga

Status:  Done
  • Reason(s): For replacing multiple strings. Hurohukidaikon (talk) 12:55, 21 August 2024 (UTC)
For stewards and tech folks: phorge:T12494 for context Waki285(talk|contrib|log|CA|Target) 13:30, 21 August 2024 (UTC)
On hold Waiting for a MediaWiki Specialist to comment at Phorge. --1108-Kiju/Talk 18:44, 21 August 2024 (UTC)
Task filled: phorge:T12498 Waki285(talk|contrib|log|CA|Target) 06:56, 22 August 2024 (UTC)
Please be advised this is not yet possible until an issue is fixed where wikis created before May 11th this year will break should the extension be enabled. --raidarr (💬) 12:25, 22 August 2024 (UTC)
Removing on-hold status, SMW is now compatible. @Hurohukidaikon:, please confirm if this request is still needed. --NotAracham (talkcontribsglobal) 18:33, 29 November 2024 (UTC)
I don't know what does SMW means. Anyway, our wiki users still need easy multiple replacing function. If we can do it, you can remove this request. Thank you. Hurohukidaikon (talk) 21:54, 29 November 2024 (UTC)
Many apologies, I read too quickly and conflated this request with the general Semantic MediaWiki fix, this issue is still pending a fix from our Technology team to allow enabling replacetext. --NotAracham (talkcontribsglobal) 21:57, 29 November 2024 (UTC)
Okay. Hurohukidaikon (talk) 23:05, 29 November 2024 (UTC)
Isn't this done? The linked phabricator issue is closed, and Kagaga wiki's s:version says it is enabled. 1something (talk) 03:48, 15 February 2025 (UTC)
Confirmed done by Reception, marking as such. --NotAracham (talkcontribsglobal) 04:06, 15 February 2025 (UTC)

星坠复生

Status:  Done
This is now  Done, thank you for your patience. --NotAracham (talkcontribsglobal) 01:12, 20 February 2025 (UTC)

Encyclopaedia Indica

Status:  Resolved
Please note that an extension you have enabled, WikiBase client is incompatible with SMW so you'd have to choose between one or the other. Reception123 (talk) (C) 06:59, 27 January 2025 (UTC)
I see. I'll stick to WikiBase client for now as I have a Database wiki, thank you! – 🏵️Metrago 16:38, 27 January 2025 (UTC)
Given decision to stick with wikibase, closing as resolved. --NotAracham (talkcontribsglobal) 01:09, 20 February 2025 (UTC)

Googlepedia

Status:  Done
  • Reason(s): Hello. Please enable CirrusSearch on Googlepedia. This is needed for the RelatedArticles extension to work properly, and will also make it easier to search the wiki. Thank you and best regards,  BZPN (talk)   17:14, 25 January 2025 (UTC)
Just to note that I tried to enable CirrusSearch but for some reason the script doesn't recognize that the extension is installed so I'll have to try again later or try a debug. Reception123 (talk) (C) 06:59, 27 January 2025 (UTC)
I see. Thank you for your help :). Best regards,  BZPN (talk)   13:17, 27 January 2025 (UTC)
Install now recognized and appears to be working, closing as  Done, please open a phorge ticket if you are encountering issues. --NotAracham (talkcontribsglobal) 01:11, 20 February 2025 (UTC)

bdawiki

Status:  Locally handled
You can switch it off locally by unticking "Manage this wiki's additional settings" → "Capital Links ($wgCapitalLinks)" in ManageWiki; to enable it by namespace thereafter, please use "Manage this wiki's namespaces" → "Manage existing namespaces" → NS + Submit → "Force the first letter of links to capitals. ($wgCapitalLinkOverrides)". --Routhwick (talk) 19:10, 31 January 2025 (UTC)
Closing this as a matter to be locally handled. --NotAracham (talkcontribsglobal) 19:53, 31 January 2025 (UTC)

FNAF: Management Wanted

Status:  Done
  • Reason(s): I would like /wiki to be removed and main page to be the root for cleaner URLS. ChrisArrived (talk) 05:54, 28 January 2025 (UTC)
This is now  Done, thanks. --NotAracham (talkcontribsglobal) 19:54, 31 January 2025 (UTC)

Eggnos

Status:  Not done
  • Reason(s): I request that Eggnos' wiki is exempt from the dormancy policy, as it is a wiki that is not edited often, but still has useful information for people to read. Cisaa (talk) 20:15, 29 January 2025 (UTC)
Thank you for making this request, however the wiki has an insufficient amount of content to meet criteria for a dormancy exception. Closing as not done. --NotAracham (talkcontribsglobal) 20:09, 31 January 2025 (UTC)

Eggnos

Status:  Done
  • Reason(s): I request that /wiki/ is removed from the URL of the Eggnos wiki, to make the links look cleaner and more organized. Cisaa (talk) 20:16, 29 January 2025 (UTC)
This is now  Done, thanks. --NotAracham (talkcontribsglobal) 19:57, 31 January 2025 (UTC)

Constant Noble

Status:  Done
  • Reason(s): Turns out {{Code}} (as used by MH Meta and my wiki) makes use of {{#tag:syntaxhighlight}}, which has been listed as "expensive" since mw:1.39. This mild snafu affects four geofiction-tutorial pages of mine, as tracked at that site's "Pages with too many expensive parser function calls" listing. If they still display it at the end of the pages, I'll reach back. Routhwick (talk) 18:48, 31 January 2025 (UTC)
This is now  Done, thanks. --NotAracham (talkcontribsglobal) 19:58, 31 January 2025 (UTC)
@NotAracham: Or so we thought; the only page left in this pool showed 190 when I checked a few days ago. So unless there are further issues, settling for 200 and calling it a day (before maintenance break hits again). --Routhwick (talk) 12:35, 20 February 2025 (UTC)

Untitled Farming Game Wiki

Status:  Done
  • Reason(s): cirrussearch for better search results, remove /wiki/ because i don't think /wiki/ is necessary Stackd (talk) 12:31, 2 February 2025 (UTC)
This is now  Done, thanks. --NotAracham (talkcontribsglobal) 01:13, 20 February 2025 (UTC)

nuclearwonderlandsys

Status:  Done
  • Reason(s): TransfemIcedagger (talk) 03:41, 4 February 2025 (UTC) Organization for my private personal wiki will involve creating a lot of categories, and it would make it much easier to organize without manually creating categories each time. Thank you.
This is now  Done, thanks. --NotAracham (talkcontribsglobal) 05:26, 5 February 2025 (UTC)

Install CirrusSearch on the Sunless Sea wiki

Status:  Done
  • Reason(s): Case-sensitive searching is a hindrance with the number of pages on the wiki.
 Done Reception123 (talk) (C) 15:42, 13 February 2025 (UTC)

Install CirrusSearch on the Sunless Skies wiki

Status:  Done
  • Reason(s): Case-sensitive searching is a hindrance with the number of pages on the wiki.
 Done Reception123 (talk) (C) 15:42, 13 February 2025 (UTC)

Install CirrusSearch on the Mask of the Rose wiki

Status:  Done
  • Reason(s): Would keep it consistent with the other two related wikis, even if it's smaller-scale page-wise than the other two.
 Done Reception123 (talk) (C) 15:42, 13 February 2025 (UTC)

TFF (talk) 19:20, 5 February 2025 (UTC)

UltiBlocks Wiki

Status:  Done
  • Reason(s): Cirrussearch would make searching easier and is necessary for advancedsearch/relatedarticles. I would like semantic mediawiki for similar reasons, such as searching for specific blocks and generating lists. AmpElectrecuted (talk) 19:39, 5 February 2025 (UTC)
 Done Reception123 (talk) (C) 15:42, 13 February 2025 (UTC)
Doesn't seem like cirrussearch is enabled though. AmpElectrecuted (talk) 09:43, 14 February 2025 (UTC)

Our Blue Marble Wiki

Status:  Done
 Done Reception123 (talk) (C) 15:42, 13 February 2025 (UTC)

PATHOS-I Research Facility Wiki

Status:  Not done
  • Reason(s): The wiki is meant as a place to host a storyline for my fan game, so it might be more inactive when I finish making the wiki pages.
This wiki does not meet the 'breadth of content' requirement at present for a dormancy policy exception. Declining as not done, thank you for your understanding. --NotAracham (talkcontribsglobal) 18:42, 19 February 2025 (UTC)

Archaeomysticism Wiki

Status:  Redundant
  • Reason(s): In order to implement Template:Reflist to its fullest extent. -- — Preceding unsigned comment added by TheYakKing (talkcontribs) 9 February 2025
Volunteer comment: There is no indication that Semantic MediaWiki is used for w:Template:Reflist it is not in the documentation nor the w:Template:Reflist/Transwiki_guide. The only extension that needs this is mw:Extension:Semantic Cite which is not available on Miraheze.

Install Replace Text on Pandora's Tale Wiki

Status:  Cannot be undertaken

Wiki: https://pandorastale.miraheze.org

Requesting: Install the Replace Text extension. The wiki was created before May 2024, so you'll need to do whatever it was you did for Kagana wiki and phorge:T12498.

Reasons: I think it will be easier for me to use than MassEditRegex 1something (talk) 22:36, 14 February 2025 (UTC)

Unfortunately the wiki is compressed. Please add a comment to this task about your wiki and we'll see if something can be done.
