Sadly, there's no Japanese pages yet.
If you can do that, we'll appreciate that.
Alouthgh I know some Japanese, but I'm not native speaker of Japanese, so I'll just get rid of touching Japanese part.
Hope you could do a nice job on it

Very usefull thanks

just take a page. add JP: to the beginning of the page name in the address bar. Then edit the page and translate.

Just bumping this thread: I would like to see the wiki replace the FAQ and other help pages we currently have listed on the site, but would like people's opinions on whether it is mature enough for that to happen. There haven't been many changes recently so it would seem either people have lost interest or it has been fleshed out to the point it is quite a usable resource.

The wiki still needs more content to be a usable resource to the community. At most, the guides (or at least the half of them) needs to be ported over to start considering to replace the actual FAQ. I could port them over but my speciality is templating, not writing good articles.

On an unrelated matter: It can be possible to install ParserExtensions in the wiki? It will help when making templates because it allows the use of conditionals in them and reduce the need to create redundant templates.

wow nice

Tremendously educational many thanks, I reckon your trusty readers would definitely want even more writing like this carry on the excellent hard work.

Now this will come in handy ill try and visit occasionally.

I wish more was being done here .

What are we missing?

The ability to replace the FAQ, guides, etc. with wiki links. A better design for the front page, and easier navigation. Much more content and activity in general.

Well I can see that there aren't so many guides written in the wiki, when looking at this box.



We should fix that.

Did you just make that listing, or is it somewhere hidden on the wiki? There should be something front-page like that. And someone should organise teams to get each of those areas updated and migrated.

I found that from the FAQ article; http://osu-ppy-sh.cinevost.com/wiki/FAQ

And apparently it can be placed with {{Guides}}.

I just updated guides to redirect to it. Now just need people to write/move/be awesome.

I could write later today, but that would require someone who fixes all that amazing engrish.

I'm not talking about writing on a single day. I'm talking about organising and motivating people, and getting an ongoing effort involved. "I can write today" means nothing to me. I am looking for someone (or multiple people) willing to actually form a team and Get Things Done.

Also your sig is ugly. Make the osu! logo smaller or remove it please .

Wiki Team? Sounds cool. But yeah, I guess one day writing does nothing.

Also the signature COULD be better, but the image links (logos) in the FAQ are dead. I basically took that from the site.

Ive done a decent bit of wiki work myself. and I will try to do more. the front page should look like the front page of wiki.guildwars.com in of navigation.

I did the listing (And the used template on it) some time ago. It doesn't hurt to check the history of the template

The page looks good and if the main page here gets updated to look like that, it will (currently) be a sea of red links due to not having enough articles/guides/whatever to fill with. But still someone can try and make a draft of it on its page.

By the way: I fixed Template:Navboxaltrow because it was breaking Template:Navbox when used with Template:Navboxrow.

Thanks, I didn't really expect them to be used together, it was for when I just wanted a centered listing. We should make sure most pages are linked to a navbox.

If you need any extensions or things installed please PM me and I'll look at it ASAP.

Just a little heads up.

jpeg images aren't showing in any page in the wiki (See Interface article)

If someone tries to see directly those images, the wiki confuses itself and tries to render it as a page. jpg and png files aren't affected.

Example:
Wiki page: http://osu-ppy-sh.cinevost.com/wiki/File:Soloplay10.jpeg
Direct Link: http://osu-ppy-sh.cinevost.com/wiki/Images/1/11/Soloplay10.jpeg

See if it works now. You may need to try ing again. If not, renaming to jpg might be the best course of action for now :p.

It works now. Still, renaming them to jpg can be the safest route in this case (and disabling ing from that extension) if more problems appear from those images.

we shouldn't be using jpeg/jpeg for screenshots anyway. PNG is perfecty fine for screenshots. Jpeg is for Photos

Depends on the complexity of the screenshot. An easy way to decide is to use puush. It is smart with which mode it chooses (jpg or png) on the windows client, and will automatically decide which is best. You can make puush save locally and then use those to directly to the wiki, too

Something to share.

I was bored with Firebug and Stylish and decided to make a design for the wiki. The results were good and looks more like the rest of the site


The CSS is here if peppy wants to add it (It goes in MediaWiki:Vector.css)

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/26055736/osuwik ... 0style.css

thanks to K2J http://osu-ppy-sh.cinevost.com/u/2316 for working on the storyboarding section of the wiki

I think there's a problem with the wiki .

I logged in earlier on one computer, and later attempted to through another computer without logging out on the first and received the following error message:

A database error has occurred. Did you forget to run maintenance/update.php after upgrading? See: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Up ... ate_script
Query: INSERT INTO `` (_id,_name,_,_new,_new_time,_email,
_email_authenticated,_real_name,_options,_token,_registration,_editcount) VALUES (NULL,'kcaze','','',NULL,'',NULL,'','','45b2f6f3e4b63217d392ac47da59112d','20120512085825','0')
Function: ::addToDatabase
Error: 1062 Duplicate entry 'kcaze' for key '_name' (localhost)

I assume that the wiki still thinks I'm logged in when I'm not (I'm not logged in anymore on the first computer)?

this happens when you use the wrong case to , i think. i will look at fixing this in the near future, but please try logging in with Kcaze or kcaze and see if it helps.

Yeah, logging in with "Kcaze" did the trick. Are Osu! names case sensitive btw?

only the wiki. i plan on changing that. currently mediawiki forces capital first letters (due to that being the wiki standard).

I did some googling and it looks like doing so would require some ugly workarounds. Is it possible to edit the page to include a note telling s that the first letter in their name needs to be capitalized?

I believe it can be fixed.

Slightly off-topic but > http://puu.sh/uj3c Is there a way to actually capture in-game fullscreens without it being grey?

f12 to just store on your picture folder or shift+f12 to .

Sorry for not specifying but I was talking ing puush for more than just osu!. I'll assume the only current workaround is Print Screen into paint and then via puush?

You can printscreen then " clipboard". Or use shift-f12. Or use shift-f12.

Huh, is it fixed already? I was able to today with my name in all lowercase.

Yep, I already fixed it .

Cool, thanks peppy!

Is something like this (screenshot from Wikipedia, the one and only)
possible to achieve in the osu! wiki as well?

Because that would be major awesome, as well as much easier to jump to pages of other languages (if one's second language for instance has a 10x more detailled page).

For the rest. I really <3 the wiki.

I'd like to see a language selection like this. Can someone investigate how this is done and tell me if I need to do anything at my end to make this happen?

I found this:

http://www.art122-5.net/index.php/Media ... ageManager

but I'm not sure it will work for the osu!wiki version of mediawiki.

http://moinmo.in/Creating%20multilingua ... %20engines
This seems a useful link to me, though it gives me the impression that creating extra languages requires the creation of extra wikis? Or I completely misunderstood it - which is very much possible, since English is still my second/third language.

http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Multilang
This also seemed like an interesting link when I stumbled upon it. If it's not the ideal, then at least it might give some useful alternatives.


Though I need to add the note that I'm absolutely NOT knowledgeable in that kind of stuff ^. That's not even my tenth language. So looking into this closer, I will leave to the more professional :c

http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Langlinks_table

It should work since it only involves some database editing. The problem seems that requieres making a "hackish" Wiki Family (In the same wiki instead of making multiple wikis for every language)

Initial draft for Installation page.

Needing help in:-
1. Getting information about how to install for all Apple products. (Apple s and writers needed)
2. Proof-read the page. (Basically the page is made up of copy pasting)
3. Formatting the page. (Should be discussed later I think)

My idea of formatting the page is to use Template:Expand

I have a slight problem with this because I think installation guides should be 1-2 lines.
But it may be a good page to have for people to reference when they have issues.

You can use {{OL}} in articles which availible in other languages.

(How it looks)

I have a question... Should we ditch Template:Navbox in favor of Template:Group when making navigation templates?

Template:Navbox was good to make a quick table for navigation and Template:Group allow more personalization when making the templates but requires some (small) time setting up than the former.

See Template:Guides and Template:Contents for examples of each template.

but requires some (small) time setting up than the former.

No, it doesn't. If you don't need all the personalization, you can just ignore all secondary parameters in the template.

oh, since peppy is the only of the wiki, look at deletion requests please.

Request deletion (preferably renaming without the '.', but deletion if not possible) of this page. Presumably it's now throwing up a 403 as it starts with a Unix "hidden file" marker, so I can't even access it to throw up the Deletion template.

The page is now renamed. Maybe an upgrade caused the problem.

200 OK, thanks.

Hey, peppy, does the 's css enabled? I can't add any.

And check deletion requests please :<

[Request removed because it was fixed by Rei_Fan49. The newer language box (in which I put "after" the #ifexist for Thai box) was "outside" the template box, causing it to take on another different wiki coding than the coding that is supposed to be used.]

SO, thank you and sorry for taking your time due to my silliness.

What do you want to _fix_? It works exactly as I planned.

oh i see there's something wrong in the OL..
the '}}}}' not reached the end of #ifexists so if there's more then out of the OL box~

Nice work guys.

Anyway, I'm here to change the icon because I really think that weird smiley sucks.

Vertical flip, by x-axis.

because the vertical flip based from y = 0?

So, how to force the template not to collide with other headers and stuffs (other than countless <br> tags and enormous spacing like I did to Multiplayer)? Fixed.

I fixed it :>

This is only slightly related, but someone made a japanese translation of the pp diagram: http://puu.sh/1pnsF

I assume it's a joke from peppy.

Otherwise, random error or extremely complicated(,hard-to-explain) and classified pp calculation formula?

EDIT: Maybe your current ranking over number of people with ranked score on that difficulty? I recently got 1 pp from that recent beatmap (Normal difficulty) in roughly #~70 out of #450~950. Assuming I am staying at #~70 and the #450~950 gone to #2,000+, my pp may probably increase.
P.S. There is japanese wiki out there.

How do I give permissions?

The permissions are given in Special:Rights.

Permissions are in groups (s, Bureaucrats, etc.), so the group to give is s since it has the rights to delete/undelete and protect pages.

In this page are listed the rights of every group of the wiki and changing the rights involves editing configuration files.

Seems like tiper can't after unban. Can you help him, peppy?

I have given rights to dellirium and repflex for now.

Use the actual links, even if they're obsolete. The purpose of the page is to show the actual response from BanchoBot. If they're modified, then modify them in the wiki.

I already protected the main page to avoid possible vandalism. Use Sandbox-6 to do edits and ask in the talk section to merge them in the actual main page.

The deletion requests category is not updating even after I deleted some of the articles there. Maybe the cache of the category is not updated when an article is deleted.

Okay. I discovered CTRL + V is the miracle command. Working on it.
P.S. Despite I am one, I don't understood it sadly.

EDIT2: Already done that. I discovered Gamefaq have them methods on Hush-Hush achievement. (Some are not so correct tho. Still debating whether should I create a gamefaq just to fix the freaking grammar.)

Random note: "!faq perfect" will yield "!faq kr-perfect" instead. This seems to hold true for any command that do not have the english command but in other specific language only. It is not really an issue but what if...I wanted to tell someone what really is Perfect and Nightcore but I do not want to link it to wiki.

I've integrated the wiki with the main site design. Should make things a lot more cohesive. Let me know if you need any specific changes (point out bad-looking pages etc.)

nice! looks a lot better now!

It looks great! The only complaint I have is that it feels like it should automatically (it's kind of jarring that you seem to be on a subsection of the same site, but you suddenly have to all over again for just that section)

About squeezing.. It looks unaccustomed because the font size are the same as in the other parts of the website. I don't really think we should use increased font size only in the wiki, just got accustomed to this.

Please request css changes in this thread rather than editing Common.css on the wiki. I will be removing that css completely soon.

Why remove? Only 2 person can change this, just tell us and we (I mean me) won't.

And what about bugs? D:

Some random stuff I noticed:-
1. Wiki-sortable table isn't working for me.
2. OL doesn't appear on my side apparently. Nevermind, I noticed it is located at the lower left of the screen. False alarm.
3. 2. My Template:Expand is broken as heck. Not like I know how to fix it (sadly).

P.S. fund it! (I would hate it if deleted, I still haven't taken down all of it)
