Could you install the [http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:FormatNum FormatNum extension]? (And can you remind me where wiki-related requests are supposed to go? I couldn't find the page I was thinking of.) — [[User:Elembis|Elembis]] ([[User talk:Elembis|talk]]) 16:28, 16 October 2012 (UTC)

:Actually this would be nice, especially for the translations. For example 1,234&#8239;m could either mean 1&#8239;km and 234&#8239;m or 1&#8239;m and 234&#8239;mm depending where you are. With this extension it is possible to make the separators language specific (e.g. English use period as decimal separator and in German or French they use a comma instead). — [[User:XZise|xZise]] <small valign="middle">&#91;[[User talk:XZise|talk]]&#93;</small> 10:02, 28 March 2013 (CDT)

I was wondering if you could look at adding some sort of talk page archiving bot. I know that wikipedia has something like this, it will monitor sections of talk pages, and if they get no replies for while, moves it to a archive page. The helps keep the main talk page focused, whilst saves the discussions. I think it would be really nice if it could manage a table of archived sections so that it is easier to see what previous talks their have been. Maybe if people could then go to the archived talk, add a new topic, and the bot will move it back to the main talk page, or they can just start a new section if it works better for them. I know that at the moment it's only really main page's talk page where this is starting to get an issue, but it can't hurt to start to get such a feature in the works.

Hi, your program which generated the GIF thumbnails don't work for animated images. The thumbnails for [[:File:Jet engine gimbal.gif]]  don't work.

I'm gonna get karolus10 (he's a mod on forums) to check it later for bugs, but just wanted to know what should I do to get Polish/Polski language versions to show up in "languages" in the left side menu?

:Just ahead. Although the language doesn't appear on the left sidebar you can create pages like [[Main Page/hr]]. I'll add the language later today. — [[User:XZise|xZise]] <small>&#91;[[User talk:XZise|talk]]&#93;</small> 05:19, 15 January 2014 (CST)

:::I've added Croatian hopefully everywhere where it is needed. The main page didn't work properly because it didn't detected that the “hr” in the page name is a language code.

== Where do you live? ==
−
: Well, first, we need a [[Main Page/pl]] so there's a starting point for translators.  Once that's done, I'll add it to the sidebar.

: As for the templates, add {{tlx|lang|2=en=English version|3=pl=Polish version|4=(other languages, if they're present)}} to the parts needing translation.  If it's becoming a nightmare, you may want to make a {{tlx|Dictionary/Phrase}} with the {{tlx|lang}} template as content. -- [[User:N3X15|<span class="squad">N3X15</span>]] <sup class="plainlinks">([[Special:Contribs/N3X15|C]] &middot; [[User_talk:N3X15|T]] &middot; [{{fullurl:User:N3X15/Sig|action=edit}} E])</sup> 02:33, 1 November 2012 (UTC)

For the purpose of organization, I've been thinking about breaking off some of the smaller planets into a separate category because I imagine that as more bodies are added it's going to be harder to organize them and keep them all in one place.  What are your thoughts on this, and what do you think the cutoff for dwarf planets should be? --[[User:Craigmt1|Craigmt1]] ([[User talk:Craigmt1|talk]]) 00:40, 22 December 2012 (UTC)

== PNG thumbnail generation fails for SVG ==
 
−
 
 
−
Simple: The ImageMagick fails to generate PNG thumbs for svg files. Example:
 
−
 
 
−
[[:File:RemoteTech_Example.svg]]
 
−
 
 
−
That SVG was created with Adobe Illustrator and saved as a regular SVG 1.1, fonts converted to outline. You'll see in the file history that I tried various other formats (SVG 1.0, different subsets etc.), but every one of them causes the same error. Opening the .svg directly via the image link on the description page will work without issues.

I sincerely hope you can fix this. --[[User:Senshi|Senshi]] ([[User talk:Senshi|talk]]) 06:19, 8 February 2013 (CST)

: Well, since CentOS has a completely broken SVG converter for ImageMagick, I moved us over to using rsvg for that purpose.  Seems to be fixed.  -- [[User:N3X15|<span class="squad">N3X15</span>]] <sup class="plainlinks">([[Special:Contribs/N3X15|C]] &middot; [[User_talk:N3X15|T]] &middot; [{{fullurl:User:N3X15/Sig|action=edit}} E])</sup> 05:36, 10 February 2013 (CST)

:: The direct generation seems to be fixed, thanks for that. However, a "direct" implement (large thumb) with <nowiki>[[File:RemoteTech_Example.svg]]</nowiki>  still seems to fail. Look [[Tutorial:RemoteTech|here]]. I assume it's because the nominal pixel size of the svg is too big and the wiki does not use a maxwidth for those? I tried setting various fixed widths, e.g. <nowiki>[[File:RemoteTech_Example.svg|1000px]]</nowiki>, which work just fine. The limit width value to work apparently is <nowiki>[[File:RemoteTech_Example.svg|2785px]]</nowiki>. Go for 2786 and it immediately reports failure. You can test this by using the preview function on any page, no need to test-submit anything. --[[User:Senshi|Senshi]] ([[User talk:Senshi|talk]]) 16:37, 12 February 2013 (CST)

::Although it won't appear on the left sidebar (as long as it isn't added officially) you can simply add a page adding the language code. So if I'm not mistaken, for spanish it is '''es'''?
