Image uploading?

User:Horace asked me "I am having trouble uploading an image file. Are you able to help?" I replied that I had no idea... that my own experience is that image uploading is very flaky, I get errors about 2/3 of the time. What I usually do is to keep making random changes in the local filename, and usually I succeed in uploading eventually. Whether changing the name actually helps, I have no idea.

Anyway, I suppose it ought to be brought to your attention. Dpbsmith 20:13, 8 March 2007 (EST)

We are aware of this problem and working for a solution, thanks Conservapedia Webmaster 09:10, 9 March 2007 (EST)

I'd like to help if I can.

Hi, my name is Tom Major. I am a wiki server administrator for about 4 other Christian wikis. I don't really know who's in charge here, but if you guys need any help in that regard (spam, etc), just let me know. The wikis I administer are http://wikible.org, http://theopedia.com, http://creationwiki.org, http://wikichristian.org :-) --Ymmotrojam 19:00, 16 March 2007 (EDT)

New Look

The modified look of the site is fabulous! ~ SharonS Talk! 10:01, 17 March 2007 (EDT)

Monobook and Conserv

Thank you kindly for your work with the new skin and for restoring the original Monobook skin as an option for those who prefer the old look. The extra effort is much appreciated :) --Sid 3050 11:33, 18 March 2007 (EDT)

"We The People" logo added

Conservapedia Logo - It is only just readable if you make an effort. I still think it's an improvement. I hope you like it also. --BillOReillyFan 15:13, 18 March 2007 (EDT)

Block

I recommend blocking for infinite duration for vandalism, as in the case of Rjohnson. Thanks.--Aschlafly 17:20, 18 March 2007 (EDT)

Accesskeys

I'm not sure if you're the right person to ask about this... if I should ask someone else instead, please let me know.

I support most of the changes recently made to differentiate this wiki from others... However, I noticed that the accesskeys just got removed (eg. alt-j ⇒ Special:Whatlinkshere, alt-k ⇒ Special:Recentchangeslinked, alt-x ⇒ Special:Random, etc). I suppose most people don't rely on these, but I personally use them quite frequently and find it a little distressing to have them missing. Is there any chance they might be able to be restored, since they're unobtrusive and don't contribute much to a site's identity? --Interiot 20:44, 18 March 2007 (EDT)

Ahh, I changed my skin to monobook, and it seems to be working soon after that. Did you do something to fix it?
I have a second question: The page: /archive1 should probably not exist, but while it does, I wanted to point out that this link strangely doesn't turn out correctly. (viewing the page source, I see it appear as <a href="//archive1" ...">, eg. clearly wrong) I don't know if this is a bug within MediaWiki itself, or it's somehow do to some mod_rewrite-ish rules that Conservapedia has written. --Interiot 15:44, 19 March 2007 (EDT)

Javascript extensions

Does this site support monobook.js extensions in Javascript? There are some very useful browsing and editing tools written for MediaWiki, which I'd like to use here. Like Lupin's pop-up's. --Ed Poor 08:15, 20 March 2007 (EDT)

Judging by the source code, Lupin's popups wouldn't actually work over here without modification. Don't know what the copyright situation is there, either. I'll look into it. Tsumetai 08:23, 20 March 2007 (EDT)
I am pretty sure this is already enabled, I'll double check though. Conservapedia Webmaster 09:00, 21 March 2007 (EDT)

I can confirm that this is now enabled, and working as it ought to. Thanks! Tsumetai 09:58, 21 March 2007 (EDT)

Account creation notification

On Wikipedia, when a new user account is created, this shows up on the "recent changes" list. Is there a way to allow this to happen here? This way, when obscenely named or suspicious accounts are created, we could delete them before they do any damage. MountainDew 03:54, 21 March 2007 (EDT)

I'll look into it. Conservapedia Webmaster 08:59, 21 March 2007 (EDT)

Scientific theory of evolution

...was the collaborative work of a few admins, myself, and a few other editors. It was coming along nicely. Could you please restore it or explain its deletion? Please use my talk page.-AmesG 21:36, 21 March 2007 (EDT)
