Talk:Main Page

File namespace needs to be treated as a content namespace, and you should adjust Apache to open SWF files in-browser. (Or I might have Flash disabled a long time ago and not know it) --refractor this is a thing<staff/> 12:03, 13 December 2010 (UTC)

Wiki statistics

It's possible to list the number of uploaders by doing something like:

{{NUMBERINGROUP:Uploader}} users with [[Special:ListUsers/uploader|uploader rights]].

Which results:
42 users with uploader rights.

request for testing: swf rendering

Can people try the new SWF renderer on the server? It essentially automates what the guide does, but some people have rendering problems (it seems to vary by server)

Someday, I'll do a MW extension, but this will require regex voodoo --refractor 01:11, 14 February 2014 (UTC)

Login screens

New login pages use images instead of flash. Should they be archived? --Juca (discussão/talk) 00:40, 8 February 2015 (UTC)

I don't see the need as long as the images are uploaded to the main wiki.

--Kawkeetcp (talk) 01:21, 8 February 2015 (UTC)

French, Spanish, German and Russian versions aren't. --Juca (discussão/talk) 20:27, 8 February 2015 (UTC)

I think they should be, we're archives, we should archive also other stuff than SWFs --Misabr 【Talk•Club Penguin Wiki•Wikipedia】 10:01, 7 June 2015 (UTC)

Missions List

I can't seem to find a page listing the missions dialog (the machine in EPF and the paper in PSA, Media:Earlyfourpsasecretmissions.swf is a good example of what I mean...) --Misabr 【Talk•Club Penguin Wiki•Wikipedia】 19:07, 10 April 2015 (UTC)

Movie Clips

I found out, that on the wiki there are several movie clips, like File:ClothingSprites4690MovieClip330.swf extracted from the original SWF files... I think those are kinda useless, when we are an archive, so I suggest them being removed (I can do the job, I just need your opinion) --Misabr 【Talk•Club Penguin Wiki•Wikipedia】 20:10, 10 April 2015 (UTC)

BTW there are even pages based on listing movie clips, like Yarr --Misabr 【Talk•Club Penguin Wiki•Wikipedia】 20:11, 10 April 2015 (UTC)

The basic thing I meant here: Can I remove the movie clips I found? We're an archive to archive CP's files, not some edited crap! --Misabr 【Talk•Club Penguin Wiki•Wikipedia】 02:19, 12 April 2015 (UTC)

Archive other stuff than SWFs

Hello! I think that we can take archives to a higher level! By that I mean that we could not archive only SWFs, but even login screen images, mobile app game files, JSONs and so on! What do you think? --Misabr 【Talk•Club Penguin Wiki•Wikipedia】 12:32, 23 April 2015 (UTC)

File moving

The recurrent file moving in CP Archives is breaking a lot of links on CP Wiki Português. Does anybody know a solution for this issue? --Juca (discussão/talk) 02:34, 1 May 2015 (UTC)

Use interwikis on PT CPWIKI - make the links something like: [[:en:archives:Media:RoomsTown-CaveMaze.swf]] (for example), then redirects would work (if someone doesn't remove them...) --Misabr 【Talk•Club Penguin Wiki•Wikipedia】 08:26, 1 May 2015 (UTC)

I can't create direct links using interwiki. --Juca (discussão/talk) 15:05, 1 May 2015 (UTC)

Doesn't the Media: namespace work? --Refractor (talk) 21:47, 2 May 2015 (UTC)

When used in the URL, it redirects to the File: namespace, see User:Misabr/sandbox_2/Redirect --Misabr 【Talk•Club Penguin Wiki•Wikipedia】 15:04, 3 May 2015 (UTC)

2015 room parties template

Hello. I've come up with an idea (again). The idea is to use a template on all room pages to list the party rooms. Rooms that wouldn't be changed for the party would redirect to their normal version. Here's an example for Town:

Event	Music	Year
Star Wars Rebels Takeover	836	2015
SoundStudio Party	867	2015
Puffle Party	896	2015
Cave Maze	N/A	2015
Frozen Fever Party	N/A	2015

or for Coffee Shop (we would make the red links redirect to the normal version of the room)

Event	Music	Year
Star Wars Rebels Takeover	N/A	2015
SoundStudio Party	N/A	2015
Puffle Party	N/A	2015
Cave Maze	N/A	2015
Frozen Fever Party	N/A	2015

--Misabr 【Talk•Club Penguin Wiki•Wikipedia】 14:43, 4 May 2015 (UTC)

• I see no need to list parties if the room wasn't decorated. --Juca (discussão/talk) 22:04, 4 May 2015 (UTC) P.S.: We need to create a page for dicussions, because we are misusing the Main Page talk.
  • For the list, most of the rooms are missing most of stuff, have a look at Cave, this would make it easier to update - that's why I suggested it. As for the talk page, agreed here, we need something like Wikipedia's Village pump in one page... --Misabr 【Talk•Club Penguin Wiki•Wikipedia】 22:27, 4 May 2015 (UTC)

Evil Vision Goggles

I've been looking through special:UnusedFiles and I saw this: media:Paper1000102.swf media:Sprites1000102.swf media:1000102.swf. Here is the problem. What to do with these files? AFAIK we archive regular CP stuff, not custom stuff, but those ones were uploaded by user:ClubPenguinMaster. So, what to do with these files? --Misabr 【Talk•Club Penguin Wiki•Wikipedia】 13:31, 20 May 2015 (UTC)

Naming system

we REALLY NEED an unified naming system for rooms... Right now, when I create some missing room pages (or update informations), it's hard to find the rooms, because the names don't follow an unified system. I think, that all rooms should be uploaded as "File:RoomsNameOfTheRoom-Party.swf" for example "File:RoomsTown-TheFair2015.swf" --Misabr 【Talk•Club Penguin Wiki•Wikipedia】 18:00, 21 May 2015 (UTC)

• Yes, I agree with this model for uploading new files. Just don't rename old files. --Juca (discussão/talk) 00:14, 23 May 2015 (UTC)
  • If we want to move the old files, we should first run a PyWikibot replacing the occurences of the old name to the new name (I'm working on doing something like this for the already moved files) --Misabr 【Talk•Club Penguin Wiki•Wikipedia】 08:12, 23 May 2015 (UTC)
    • We shouldn't move old files because they break links at CPW PT. --Juca (discussão/talk) 14:52, 23 May 2015 (UTC)
      • That's why I want to use PyWikibot --Misabr 【Talk•Club Penguin Wiki•Wikipedia】 15:18, 23 May 2015 (UTC)
        • If you want, I can give you the bot flag at CPW PT. --Juca (discussão/talk) 15:24, 23 May 2015 (UTC)
          • It'd be a really good idea to give the bot flag to MisabrBot at CPW PT, because I only need to do a few adjustments to my user_fixes.py file and then the bot would be ready to fix the links --Misabr 【Talk•Club Penguin Wiki•Wikipedia】 21:14, 23 May 2015 (UTC)
            • Done --Juca (discussão/talk) 21:24, 23 May 2015 (UTC)
              • ok, thanks, I'm gonna do the replacements tommorow --Misabr 【Talk•Club Penguin Wiki•Wikipedia】 21:32, 23 May 2015 (UTC)

Broken widget

Can some admin please fix the links at {{Main-CPWN}}? The link to shops doesn't have <span class="plainlink> and the link to the protocol wiki is missing a space. I'd do it myself, but I'm not an admin --Misabr 【Talk•Club Penguin Wiki•Wikipedia】 15:49, 11 June 2015 (UTC)

Looks like Juca fixed it. --Tux (*** SERVICE NOTIFICATION *** clubpenguinwiki.info IS UP) 21:10, 17 June 2015 (UTC)

I asked him on IRC to do it --Misabr 【Talk•Club Penguin Wiki•Wikipedia】 13:00, 18 June 2015 (UTC)
