We appear to have been subject to continual link-spam attacks on pages in the 'NSwiki' namespace for a small period of time, coming from a user editng through open proxies. I have banned a bunch of these IPs and have protected several pages temporarily, perhaps we should consider more permanent actions to prevent open proxy link spammers, if it becomes more frequent.

Just wondering if it were at all possible... Or if you would have to {delete} at the top, and create a new one. Fodmodmadtol Administration is a page I meant to name, and however small this might seem, "Fodmodmadtol Administration-Corporation." Just wondering. ;) [[User:Fodian Federa|Fodian Federa]] 01:00, 26 May 2005 (GMT)

Hall of Ex-Nations again

Goober, I replaced an edit by Fabusism2005 (the LOEL link, of course) with Hack's suggested text and reprotected the page. I'm too fuzzy right now to remember how to start banning procedures, or even to care whether we do. You unprotected the page with a statement (Rough consensus reached on talk page). If that's enough for you, ban him. If not, would you mind starting the proceedings for consensual banning? Thanks. → Fris Θtalk 04:47, 25 Mar 2005 (GMT)

Re: Upload

To be honest, I have no idea. I didn't even know that it didn't work usually. ;) I'm using Firefox, if that matters in any way. One thing I noticed is that it didn't generate a thumb for the image, so on my nation page the infobox shows up a broken image, though the link leads to the right picture.

I think I know the problem with the thumbnails

Several times when accessing a page that should have displayed a thumbnail image, I have received an error message like this:

Warning: shell_exec(): Cannot execute using backquotes in Safe Mode in   
/home2/sub003/sc434/ns/wiki/includes/Image.php on line 498
Warning: stat(): SAFE MODE Restriction in effect. The script whose uid/gid is 
933/933 is not allowed to access /home2/sub003/sc434/ns/wiki/images/thumb 
owned by uid/gid 99/99 in /home2/sub003/sc434/ns/wiki/includes/Image.php on line 971

The "Safe Mode" mainly causes problems in automatically created files and folders. If I remember correctly, a folder you create manually can only be accessed by a manually uploaded script, and a folder created by a script can only by accessed by an automatically created script (via the "fwrite()" command for example).

Hey, I think there is some problem...

Thanks, I think I fixed it all now. ta Sacco and Vanzetti 23:16, 24 Apr 2005 (GMT)

NSwiki:Factbook wikifying service

I set up a page about this, following your request and using the link you suggested NSwiki:Factbook wikifying service. The question is, where would be the best place to put a link to this site? Cobdenia 15:14, 28 Apr 2005 (GMT)

Changing uploaded images

I had proved to re-upload the TPP.gif image, but this is impossible. It seems that you must first delete it Rufus T. Firefly 11:32, 16 May 2005 (GMT)

Link spammer using open proxies

We appear to have been subject to continual link-spam attacks on pages in the 'NSwiki' namespace for a small period of time, coming from a user editng through open proxies. I have banned a bunch of these IPs and have protected several pages temporarily, perhaps we should consider more permanent actions to prevent open proxy link spammers, if it becomes more frequent.

Rename a page?

Just wondering if it were at all possible... Or if you would have to {delete} at the top, and create a new one. Fodmodmadtol Administration is a page I meant to name, and however small this might seem, "Fodmodmadtol Administration-Corporation." Just wondering. ;) Fodian Federa 01:00, 26 May 2005 (GMT)
