15:09.24 | morgoth1145 | Ose: What about python? |
15:09.41 | Ose | welcome back |
15:10.00 | Ose | hear about pywikipediabot? |
15:10.47 | morgoth1145 | (Not so much back but more of my computer decided to restart for some stupid reason over the night) |
15:10.50 | morgoth1145 | and no |
15:11.00 | Ose | check out http://dev.wikia.com/wiki/List_of_Bot_frameworks |
15:11.13 | Ose | there's a wikia fork, check it out |
15:11.46 | Ose | also, check out [[Form:Creature]] |

15:22.55 | morgoth1145 | Not if you wait for a whole 33 seconds before leaving |
15:22.58 | morgoth1145 | also |
15:22.59 | morgoth1145 | that |
15:23.00 | morgoth1145 | form |
15:23.01 | morgoth1145 | is |
15:23.02 | morgoth1145 | sexy |
15:23.25 | Ose | hehe |
15:24.12 | morgoth1145 | I take it that this utilizes new wiki capabilities that wikia introduced? |
15:24.16 | morgoth1145 | .voice infobot |
15:24.16 | *** mode/#sporewiki [+v infobot] by ChanServ |
15:26.35 | morgoth1145 | Also, I assume that we're going to be making similar forms for the other types of content? |
15:26.48 | morgoth1145 | 'cause a few of these would be great for the main page |
15:27.11 | Ose | there will be more yes |
15:27.27 | Ose | and the technology isn't wikia's, I just asked them to turn it on |
15:27.46 | Ose | there are more examples of what can be done on vsk.wikia.com |
15:27.56 | Ose | (I got help from the guy who set them up there) |
15:28.25 | morgoth1145 | Well, for now I'm sure that we have enough of a reference from that one |
15:28.39 | morgoth1145 | for just setting up the other forms |
15:28.55 | morgoth1145 | I'll have to check out the forms on that wiki at some point |
15:29.56 | morgoth1145 | And when are we having the new namespaces opened for business? |
15:30.01 | Ose | i'm working on making more automated taxon pages |
15:30.08 | Ose | when uberfuzzy has time |
15:30.22 | Ose | he told me to keep poking him about it |
15:30.37 | Ose | check out [[Project:Sandbox]] |
15:30.38 | morgothBotPy | Ose meant: http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Project:Sandbox |
15:32.09 | morgoth1145 | I see that |
15:32.11 | morgoth1145 | that's also sexy |
15:32.38 | morgoth1145 | I always look at every change in the changelog when I log on, the only exception being if I've been away for a while. |
15:33.03 | morgoth1145 | Are you having {{Classification}} just show the parent, or all the way up to the kingdom if that exists? |
15:33.03 | morgothBotPy | morgoth1145 meant: http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Template:Classification |
15:33.14 | morgoth1145 | (Granted, the latter would be harder, but still quite possible.) |
15:33.37 | Ose | all the way, working on it |
15:33.59 | Ose | i'm adding a rank parameter that will sort it out |
15:35.01 | morgoth1145 | No matter there will be an annoying amount of code somewhere, but that was the better of the two solutions that I had in my head |
15:36.04 | morgoth1145 | The bigger issue that I forsee is with creatures. Mainly because for some creatures the creature is the genus page, so the parent would be the family, and for others the genus page exists so that would be the parent |
15:36.50 | morgoth1145 | There's a template thing to check if a page exists, right? |
15:36.59 | Ose | yep |
15:37.27 | morgoth1145 | Wait, right, that's in use in the Form page, isn't it? |
15:37.30 | Ose | also, i'm also working on a extra surprise, but i'm not making it official in case it doesn't end up well |
15:37.34 | Ose | want to see? |
15:37.39 | morgoth1145 | sure |
15:37.43 | Ose | http://ose.wikia.com/ |
15:37.50 | morgoth1145 | nice |
15:37.52 | morgoth1145 | your own test wiki |
15:37.55 | Ose | yes |
15:38.52 | Ose | just to be sure, you are seeing the custom css things right? |
15:39.05 | morgoth1145 | I'm loading it on my other compy at the moment |
15:39.24 | morgoth1145 | woah |
15:39.27 | morgoth1145 | sweet background |
15:40.16 | morgoth1145 | I'm probably not seeing the custom .css, since the twitter box doesn't seem to exist |
15:40.35 | Ose | if you see the galaxy you are |
15:40.46 | Ose | i'm also having problems with the twitter box |
15:40.50 | morgoth1145 | ah |
15:40.58 | morgoth1145 | Well, you might want to change the link color |
15:43.21 | Ose | yeah |
15:43.35 | Ose | it's far from complete |
15:47.30 | morgoth1145 | Anyway |
15:47.47 | morgoth1145 | Want me to work on the creature problem when I get back from fooding? |
15:47.50 | morgoth1145 | .away fooding |
15:47.50 | morgothBotPy | Goodbye, morgoth1145. |
15:48.21 | Ose | which problem? |
15:48.31 | morgoth1145 | the genus/family parent problem |
15:49.01 | Ose | well, it was my impression that genus pages were not to exist |
15:49.14 | Ose | so if you want to go and clean them out, be my guest |
15:49.40 | morgoth1145 | what it is is that genus pages are not to exist if only one creature is under the genus |
15:49.57 | morgoth1145 | There are a couple genus pages where multiple creatures fall under that genus, so those exist |
15:50.33 | Ose | hmm |
15:50.57 | morgoth1145 | I know exactly how to go about it on the infobox creature template, it's not that big a deal |
15:51.11 | Ose | so there are pages about creatures that are virtually identical? |
15:51.35 | morgoth1145 | theoretically |
15:53.32 | morgoth1145 | Well, I'm gonna go get food |
15:55.08 | Ose | me too |
16:11.05 | morgoth1145 | I'll just go for the infobox creature thing, shouldn't be too hard. |
16:16.08 | morgoth1145 | Okay, so the form doesn't have an #ifexist thing or whatever, so scratch that |
16:24.53 | morgoth1145 | .back |
16:24.53 | morgothBotPy | Welcome back, morgoth1145. |
16:30.33 | Ose | .back too |
16:30.33 | morgothBotPy | Welcome back, Ose. |
16:33.27 | morgoth1145 | What's the code to find if a page exists? |
16:39.27 | morgoth1145 | Do you not know offhand, or of any page that uses it? |
16:39.52 | Ose | http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Extension:ParserFunctions |
16:40.54 | morgoth1145 | sweetness |
16:40.55 | morgoth1145 | gracias |
16:41.02 | morgoth1145 | should bookmark the page |
16:42.47 | Ose | did that after having to ask like five times :P |
16:44.31 | morgoth1145 | hehe |
16:46.49 | Ose | do we know anyone with photoshop skills we can ask to make some graphics for us? |
16:48.52 | morgoth1145 | define photoshop skills. |
16:49.42 | Ose | look at http://memory-alpha.org/en/wiki/Star_Trek_%28film%29 |
16:50.29 | morgoth1145 | the indentation isn't right on the classification |
16:50.33 | Ose | I want something like the graphic under the page bar |
16:50.42 | Ose | I know, i'm fixing it last |
16:51.15 | Ose | but preferably one for each content/taxon namespace |
16:51.35 | Ose | I did an experiment on {{tax/dev}} |
16:51.36 | morgothBotPy | Ose meant: http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Template:tax/dev |
16:54.11 | Ose | {{infobox creature}} |
16:54.11 | morgoth1145 | Alright, the edit that I just made to {{infobox creature}} should work. Er...crap. Okay, after the next edit |
16:54.11 | morgothBotPy | morgoth1145 meant: http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Template:infobox_creature |
16:54.12 | morgothBotPy | Ose meant: http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Template:infobox_creature |
16:54.17 | Ose | lol |
16:54.25 | Ose | I was just making a link |
16:55.25 | morgoth1145 | that's rather humorous |
16:55.26 | morgoth1145 | alright |
16:55.33 | morgoth1145 | 2 edits down, I think that it should work |
16:55.34 | morgoth1145 | you? |
16:56.01 | Ose | checking what you did |
16:56.03 | morgoth1145 | And that seems like more work than I'd like to ask my friend about, so iunno |
16:56.53 | Ose | seems right |
16:57.42 | Ose | oh ,there are no brackets in #ifexist... |
16:57.53 | Ose | I remembered it wrong |
16:59.08 | morgoth1145 | what do you mean, no brackets? |
17:02.39 | Ose | no [[]] |
17:02.39 | morgothBotPy | Ose meant: http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/ |
17:02.48 | Ose | lul |
17:03.06 | Ose | [[]] is now our shorthand for the mainpage :P |
17:03.06 | morgothBotPy | Ose meant: http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/ |
17:03.58 | morgoth1145 | oh, right...why was I thinking {{}}? |
17:03.59 | morgothBotPy | morgoth1145 meant: http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Template: |
17:04.18 | morgoth1145 | and I just did a test by manually re-caching a page on the server |
17:04.25 | morgoth1145 | looks like it's working beautifully |
17:05.14 | morgoth1145 | Might want to make the parent property give a link instead of plain text, though. Iunno |
17:51.57 | Ose | I cannot believe it |
17:52.00 | Ose | it's working |
17:53.08 | morgoth1145 | What is? |
17:53.11 | morgoth1145 | your test wiki? |
17:53.35 | Ose | no, the infobox |
17:53.45 | Ose | gimme a moment to check something, then i'll save |
18:04.47 | morgoth1145 | saved? |
18:08.00 | Ose | grr... |
18:08.17 | Ose | i'd save if there hadn't appeared a new rpoblem with another part |
18:13.13 | morgoth1145 | You might want to put spaces between the }}'s, make it easier to read |
18:13.36 | morgoth1145 | I'm gonna go watch some Stargate Atlantis, I may work on one of the other Forms later |
18:22.42 | Ose | http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Content:Monstrosity |
18:29.11 | morgoth1145 | Got it working, I take it? |
18:29.21 | Ose | I think so |
18:29.31 | Ose | btw, I can has example of genus page? |
18:32.43 | morgoth1145 | I can give you one, but the one that I know of doesn't have creature infoboxes on the creature pages |
18:33.12 | Ose | doesn't matter |
18:33.37 | morgoth1145 | kk |
18:33.38 | morgoth1145 | finding it |
18:35.11 | morgoth1145 | hm, odd |
18:35.19 | morgoth1145 | the one that I was finding was done improperly |
18:35.45 | morgoth1145 | it's under [[Taxon:Unimerea |

18:40.10 | morgoth1145 | I'm looking for a proper genus page right now |
18:41.25 | morgoth1145 | there |
18:41.42 | morgoth1145 | [[Taxon:Sykiis]] |
18:41.42 | morgothBotPy | morgoth1145 meant: http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Taxon:Sykiis |
18:41.43 | Ose | hmm |
18:41.57 | Ose | well, the first case is a mis-classification |
18:42.08 | Ose | the two creatures are nothing like each other |
18:42.50 | Ose | same for the second ones really |
18:43.08 | morgoth1145 | Somebody (more knowledgeble [sp?] than I) should go through the entire taxonomy to figure out if things are good or not |
18:43.19 | morgoth1145 | still, you can use the second one for a test for right now |
18:43.26 | Ose | I may not be a classification expert, but I think being in the same genus implies being /very/ simillar |
19:32.22 | Ose | morgoth1145: did you like the darktable box design, or the current one |
19:32.27 | Ose | see http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Taxon:Chloridae |
19:33.55 | Ose | i'll make a taxon form now |
19:34.15 | morgoth1145 | That'll probably be the hardest of the forms |
19:35.06 | Ose | actually no |
19:35.12 | Ose | not with the new template |
19:37.21 | morgoth1145 | Oo, you're right |
19:37.42 | morgoth1145 | All you need is a name, a parent, and a description |
19:38.15 | morgoth1145 | also, what'd darktable look like, in comparison? |
19:38.49 | Ose | don't you remember? |
19:38.59 | morgoth1145 | nope |
19:39.17 | morgoth1145 | I don't pay all that much attention to that sort of thing |
19:39.22 | Ose | smaller text, header with background, grey border |
19:40.49 | morgoth1145 | Oh, you're meaning the box, versus what looks to be normal text? |
19:40.55 | morgoth1145 | I thought you were comparing two different box styles |
19:41.11 | Ose | yes |
19:42.28 | morgoth1145 | I personally prefer the box |
19:48.47 | Ose | morgoth1145: http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Form:Taxon |
19:48.55 | Ose | type in animalia and hit enter |
19:54.20 | morgoth1145 | kk |
19:54.56 | morgoth1145 | Nice |
19:55.23 | morgoth1145 | okay, maybe not |
19:55.33 | Ose | huh? |
19:55.34 | morgoth1145 | it's requiring that parent taxon not be blank |
19:55.38 | morgoth1145 | for a preview |
19:55.50 | morgoth1145 | or for saving |
19:55.58 | Ose | yeah, but i'm not expecting anyone ot add a lot of kingdoms... |
19:55.59 | morgoth1145 | not a problem for the kingdoms, as they're already made |
19:56.12 | morgoth1145 | yeah, it's just annoying. I wanted to test the preview thing |
19:56.56 | Ose | choose another taxon :P |
19:57.00 | morgoth1145 | Already did |
19:57.01 | morgoth1145 | quite nice |
19:58.08 | Ose | now i'm going to try to classify [[Content:Gurp]], using the two forms |
19:58.08 | morgothBotPy | Ose meant: http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Content:Gurp |
19:58.34 | morgoth1145 | Good luck |
