| == An old question about hits counter from Enabran == | | == wanted to show you our cool new toys for wikia == |
|
| |
|
| Hi Joe,<br/>[[user:Enabran|Enabran]] asked some time ago if it is possible to retrieve the hits counter. I tried to install a stable version of [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:HitCounters Extension:HitCounters] on the [[:fr:|French wiki]]. It seems to work. You'll need to run an <tt>maintenance/update.php</tt> after installing the extension with the following in the <tt>LocalSettings.php</tt> file

| | :* A bit of potential, if not ironic, foreshadowing is seen regarding Tyrol being a Cylon in [[Season 2 (2005-06)|Season 2]]'s "[[Resistance (episode)|Resistance]]". In that episode, upon returning to ''Galactica'' from [[Kobol (RDM)|Kobol]], Galen Tyrol is suspected to be a Cylon agent by none other than Colonel Tigh. |

|
| I'm interested in assisting in regards to the summary pages of unproduced scripts of the 1978 series and its follow-up in 1980, but there are a few problems in this regard. First, it appears the wiki hasn't been updated in quite some time regarding these scripts (so I'm unsure if this is an active project or not). Second, the link to the Battlestar Pegasus page is dead. I have a few scripts printed out from the '78 series a few years ago, but I'd need access to the other scripts (especially The Beta Pirates, which I've wanted to read for many yahrens). Is this wiki still active, and can I assist? {{unsigned|Ninth Lord of Kobol}}

| == Battlestar Wiki's new skin == | | == Polish Wiki == |
|
| |
|
| Hi Joe,<br/>I hope you're well. I discovered the new skin you implanted for BW. Is that normal if everything is still in a white background even if you modified the css page to adapt? Thanks for your answer. Cheers! --[[User:LIMAFOX76|LIMAFOX76]] ([[User talk:LIMAFOX76|talk]]) 06:24, 20 April 2022 (UTC)
| | Hello, |
| | | I'm interested in set up the Polish version of BSG Wiki. Translating [[Battlestar Wiki:Standards and Conventions/pl:Battlestar Wiki:Standardy i Konwencje|first article]] and gathering the crew is in progress. :) But I have several questions to you. |
| : Howdy! Things are OK -- I hope things are good for you! For the background, it is adaptable, and there are three options if you click on the wheel/gear icon on the upper menu bar: Auto, Light and Dark. You might be on "light" or "auto," so if you click on Dark you should get the "darker" red theme.
| | 1. How it is with links in articles, that is being translating? For example if I have a link to "[[Water]]" episode, do I should change it to link to the "[[Water/pl: Woda]]", even if that article isn't existing yet? |
| | | 2. Spoilers. I don't really know, how to solve this issue. To be honest, '''no''' BSG episode has been aired in Polish TV yet. We have been watching it in foreing channels. So how should I treat the spoilers? What informations are spoiler informations? All? None? |
| : I'm trying to figure out what to do for the "light" theme (so I've left it alone for now), and might try something that invokes the cream/light brown paperwork from the series.
| | This is all for now. Hope my Engilsh is good enough to be understood by you. :) |
| | | --[[User:Glizda101|Glizda]] 04:22, 26 May 2007 (CDT) |
| : I'm tweaking the theme as I go as well, so if you have any thoughts or suggestions, let me know. Cheers! -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] <sup>[[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]]</sup> 23:38, 20 April 2022 (UTC)
| | :I can help with this.... right now in order to have the basic "[[Battlestar_Wiki:Translation_Project#Articles_Needing_Translation|things]]" ([[Battlestar_Wiki:Translation_Project/Required_Translations_for_Own_Wiki|plus here]]) need for your own wiki to function. We can take the "pl" files here on the and important them into the pl namespace... pl.battlestarwiki.org. They way you would link a pl.battlestarwiki.org/wiki/Woda with en.battlestarwiki.org/wiki/Water is add <code><nowiki>[[en:Water]]</nowiki></code> to the bottom of the "Woda" page as explained in the [[BW:SAC#Category_Rules|BW:SAC]] and [[BW:INTER]]. Then the interwiki bot maintains the links on all the wikis so everything is cross-referenced. Spoiler information is then BASED off the English wiki if it doesn't "Air" per say in Poland. Any questions? Hope this helps. [[User:Shane|Shane]] <sup>([[User_Talk:Shane|T]] - [[Special:Contributions/Shane|C]] - [[Special:Editcount/Shane|E]])</sup> 05:50, 26 May 2007 (CDT) |
| :: Things are good for me as well, thanks! Regarding the skin, I chose the Dark theme, yet it is still white. Did I miss something in my parameters??
| |
| :: Small update, it seems that the dark and light themes are linked to the browser main color theme. I managed to change it in Edge and Firefox but I had to purge the cache. If I switch the browsers' theme back to light, it comes back to the light mode. --[[User:LIMAFOX76|LIMAFOX76]] ([[User talk:LIMAFOX76|talk]]) 20:54, 21 April 2022 (UTC)

| | |
| ::: I loved the old cream-coloured theme developed by Paul Gu. I don't think that theme would work in the current versions of Media Wiki, though. But if you have the CSS of that light theme, maybe we can use the same colours in the current Citizen based theme? -- [[User:CylonU87|CylonU87]] <sup>[[User talk:CylonU87|I don't feel like a copy.]]</sup> 20:28, 3 July 2023 (UTC)

| |
| | |
| WiiFrakr had some fantastic and hilarious content back in the day. Sadly this was lost in time. Is there a way to restore those pages back if a backup is available? Maybe instead of a separate sub-wiki, those pages can live under a namespace on the English Wiki.

| :Awesome Corey! I expect there to be discontinuities as production didn't keep tabs on these types of things, particularly as the show went on. We should note any contradictions, particularly as background or bit actors tend to play different characters throughout the run of the show.
