02:45.30morgoth1145.msg Ose If I could make a wikibot then I wouldn't be using AWB, now would I?
02:45.58morgoth1145.msg Ose Also, are you looking at the taxonomy section on pages for the classified by and year information?  Because you don't seem to be, and it's there a lot of the time.
02:45.59morgoth1145.back
02:46.00morgothBotPyWelcome back, morgoth1145.
02:46.03morgoth1145.away Sleeping
02:46.03morgothBotPyGoodbye, morgoth1145.
02:51.03morgoth1145.msg Ose Also, could you try and get rid of the four unneeded fields that are getting left on {{infobox creature}} pages when using the form?
02:51.29morgoth1145.msg Ose I'm meaning Kingdom, Phylum, Class, and Order.

11:28.15Ose.msg morgoth1145 the account creation error message is caused by being <13
12:32.09morgoth1145.back
12:32.09morgothBotPyWelcome back, morgoth1145.
12:32.16morgoth1145Well, he could have told me that
12:32.33morgoth1145(that he wasn't over 13)
12:33.41Osenobody reads the ToS
13:02.06morgoth1145That's kinda an obvious one, though
13:02.23morgoth1145If it asks you if you're over 13 and you say no
13:02.27morgoth1145and it won't let you register
13:06.02morgoth1145Also, I love how that one guy got all pissed because his page got moved
13:06.48Osewho?
13:08.14morgoth1145a couple of days ago
13:08.17morgoth1145Sunday, I think
13:08.27morgoth1145It's in the move log
13:08.43morgoth1145because he moved the page back to the content namespace, then back to the creature namespace 10 minutes later
13:10.05Osehttp://ose.wikia.com/wiki/Ose_Wiki geif comments
13:10.49Osedid you see the angry comments on my page? :P
13:10.59Ose"don't touch my pages"
13:11.56morgoth1145yeah
13:11.58morgoth1145I saw that
13:12.46morgoth1145I'm just seeing all this thinking "Dude, if you get any more beligerant you run the risk of being blocked and not being able to do anything about your pages..."
13:14.49Osealso, I found a cool JS
13:15.03Osetry changing the width of your browser window on http://ose.wikia.com/wiki/User:Ose/dev
13:15.49Oseoh wait, js is only applying to me, need to change that
13:16.39morgoth1145I don't want to change the width of my browser window...
13:17.04Oseuh, just un-maximize it and drag the side
13:17.13Osethen maximize it when you're done
13:17.35Osealternately, just open/close a sidebar in the browser (bookmarks for example)
13:19.20morgoth1145wikia borked
13:21.31morgoth1145Okay
13:21.33morgoth1145this is odd
13:21.35morgoth1145some pages load
13:21.38morgoth1145some don't
13:22.53Osejust keep refreshing
13:23.36morgoth1145I was refreshing the pages that didn't
13:23.38morgoth1145they still didn't
13:24.21morgoth1145okay
13:24.23morgoth1145I resized it
13:24.34morgoth1145Remind me what's so cool
13:25.37Oseif the js is working for you, you should see a difference in images pr. row when you resize
13:25.50Oseit automatically fills every row
13:26.18morgoth1145what rows?
13:26.21morgoth1145There was one big column
13:26.26Oseuh?
13:26.37morgoth1145pokes Google Chrome
13:26.41morgoth1145Do you not support js?
13:28.02Osetry http://www.sohtanaka.com/web-design/examples/smart-columns/
13:30.11morgoth1145That worked
13:30.14morgoth1145so yours is just borked
13:32.41Osenot for me
13:33.04morgoth1145You did enable the js for everybody, not just you, right?
13:33.29OseI did now
13:33.45Ose10 mins ago
13:34.04morgoth1145I didn't see an edit
13:34.31morgoth1145give me a recache link
13:34.37morgoth1145or refresh or whatever
13:34.37Ose<PROTECTED>
13:34.39Ose<PROTECTED>
13:35.16morgoth1145I didn't see that in the RC log
13:36.00morgoth1145I still don't
13:36.19morgoth1145oh...
13:36.23morgoth1145this is on your wiki...
13:36.25morgoth1145fail
13:36.28Osewell duh
13:36.39Ose[15:14]<Ose>try changing the width of your browser window on http://ose.wikia.com/wiki/User:Ose/dev
13:36.47morgoth1145I didn't look closely at the url
13:37.34Osehow about clicking it? :P
13:38.40Osehihi
13:39.17morgoth1145I did click the link
13:39.38morgoth1145It works on my other computer, but that might be because I'm logged in, or it might be because it's Firefox
13:41.10morgoth1145Also, is there any way to make the black border around the text a little bolder?  Because if the text is right over the center of the galaxy is hard to read, still.
13:41.11morgoth1145Also
13:41.11morgoth1145food
14:00.36morgoth1145back
14:13.42Osehttp://ose.wikia.com/wiki/Ose_Wiki does this work?
14:13.55morgoth1145Oo
14:14.22morgoth1145Can you make all text have that?  It shouldn't look too bad, and it helps a lot.
14:21.25Osedone
14:22.11morgoth1145I don't know about you, but I think that that looks pretty good.
14:23.10OseI guess it does :P
14:23.26morgoth1145Now, is there any way to make that happen automatically?  (Also, it might be cool to let users choose between this and our current skin, however that might work.)
14:23.37morgoth1145And I should be able to get more taxonomy conversion crap done later today
14:27.41Osemake what happen?
14:28.03Oseyeah, I think there's a way to make several custom skins
14:29.07morgoth1145the box thing around txt
14:29.12morgoth1145text*
14:29.17morgoth1145instead of doing that manually
14:29.34Osenope
14:32.13morgoth1145aw
14:34.55Osethe problem is, if I tell an element to be semi-transparent, so will the text and images within be
14:35.31Oseso I have to make a transparent element and then place another element "above" it
14:41.32Osemorgoth1145: http://sporefanfic.wikia.com/wiki/Forum:Fan_fiction_on_SporeWiki#Or?
14:44.38morgoth1145That would be good
14:45.49Ose<Honking>It's actually pretty simple, it just took API calls for all pages you'd want from the fanon (if you want their old forums, user/usertalk pages, project pages, and stuff like that) then you use that for aspecial:export , use notepad++ and some regex to change the page names to have Fanon: ahead of titles as well as change project pages' namespace and stuff like that, import it, then...
14:45.51Ose...get tech...
14:47.15morgoth1145yeah
14:47.17morgoth1145that's so simple

17:30.13morgoth1145Um
17:30.17morgoth1145Let me check it out
17:30.32morgoth1145and I think that I'll take a break from taxon conversions until tomorrow
17:30.42morgoth1145'cause I'm somewhat busy with other stuff
17:31.51morgoth1145Um, what's that pink box?
17:32.16morgoth1145and find out a way to not have to manually do the box thing so that users don't have to do that on other pages? :-P
17:33.53Osepink box?
17:34.42morgoth1145on the page
17:34.56morgoth1145right above the featured article thing
17:35.30Oseoh, the purple box
17:35.56Osethat's just a temporary thingy so that I see where the ad goes even though I use adblock
17:39.06Osehmm
18:00.02morgoth1145ah
