Uploads of files

We are resolving some technical issues that are preventing the uploading of files. --Dave Vanderburg 15:34, 14 October 2008 (UTC)

Perfect :-) Thanks a lot in advance for your help! --Mulleflupp 06:52, 15 October 2008 (UTC)

Hi all, I just noticed that uploads have been disabled on this wiki, which is a pity since it would be a great opportunity to show a picture of all the mice, traps, cheeses etc. on the respective page. Does anybody know more? --Mulleflupp 14:50, 6 October 2008 (UTC)

Hey, I believe Joel has administrative powers over the Wiki.

He's off on tour at the moment, but I'll try and contact him to amend this.

All we'll need to do is address the viewers that they could potentially stumble upon spoilers because I know some players prefer to unlock the mice images through their hard work.

Uploads have now been enabled. --Dave Vanderburg 21:03, 6 October 2008 (UTC)

Great! The only question is how to handle pictures, i.e. if it is a good idea to put the images in each article, which means that most articles with pictures could act as spoilers. In this case it would be useful to put a general spoiler warning on the Main Page. Another alternative might be to put all images the user uncovers through gameplay (mainly mouse pictures) on one page and before each link to this page, we put a spoiler warning. The other (non-spoiler) images could of course be integrated in the related articles.

Any opinions? --Mulleflupp 09:29, 7 October 2008 (UTC)

I'm up for the all-purpose spoiler warning on the Main Page, since the "mouseum" idea probably wouldn't work for people who only want to see the mice they've caught. How about a link on the silhouetted image pages, leading to the images of their revealed versions? "Spoiler: Go [here] to unveil this mouse.", for example. Still, I'm definitely in favor of the Main Page warning. Leaving all of the articles with silhouettes doesn't sound very Wiki-like.

Is anybody else still unable to upload? --Revengeance 18:44, 7 October 2008 (UTC)

Yep, the "File uploads are disabled on MHWiki." is still there. As long as this is the case, we don't have to worry abuot the spoiler warning. --Mulleflupp 09:10, 8 October 2008 (UTC)

I am not able to upload, though I think the site needs pictures, even if they are a spoiler, Is there a mouse-over that we can use to avoid the spoiler issue? --Sokolok 15:37, 8 October 2008 (UTC)

I am unable to upload files. I need this feature of the wiki to continue work in my Sandbox. Eepeng 07:02, 10 October 2008 (UTC)

I can't upload atm :) Daworm 11:21, 29 October 2008 (UTC)

This'll be fixed soon yes? I wanna do a couple of things but need image uploads :D Daworm 05:25, 31 October 2008 (UTC)

If HitGrab does not want to reveal the image i guess they will never put that option available. --Cizagna 23:56, 3 November 2008 (UTC)

Well they said it should be resolved... at the least allow upload but state no mouse images to be uploaded... and just means some volunteer sysops need to trawl added images :) Daworm 01:13, 5 November 2008 (UTC)

• This place needs more visual stimulus and less morons who can't construct a coherent sentence. The developer's really need to take control of this thing. Revengeance 07:16, 5 November 2008 (UTC)

Administrators

• I have created a List_of_administrators page, I'll add the users as I see on the Userlist of their status. Please keep me updated. Eepeng 06:36, 10 October 2008 (UTC)

Travel costs

See the above issue with uploading

Reward not given

Hello. I have no idea if I am in the right place for this but I was wondering why when I entered the code for the kings reward nothing happened. Not even a box to tell me I wasn't getting anything. If someone could either answer this for me or let me knoe who to talk to about it that would be great!

Thanks!

Links on Main Page...

Just wondering, should the Main Page of the wiki be more for MouseHunt itself? Should the community links to other sites be linked on another page somewhere?

Perhaps build up a "Community portal" page and link them there? Daworm 00:07, 3 November 2008 (UTC)

Events Addon...

Here's an idea for stream-lining finding out about up-coming events, perhaps put this addon in? Calendar Daworm 00:10, 3 November 2008 (UTC)

Mainpage Redesign...

Just messing about for now. How do you think it looks so far? User:Daworm/Sandbox

Obviously will need voting and approval, but until image uploads are fully enabled, it's at least giving a more functional front-page design.

If they get DPL installed, I'm thinking of having a section for displaying a random community site / tools link as well from a list. But yeah, need DPL added so can play around with it more to get that happening.

Daworm 03:03, 6 November 2008 (UTC)

Looks pretty good, though the colors seem a bit out of place compared to the rest of the page. Those links below the design are still cluttering the page too.

I made another version of the main page expanding on Eepeng's design. It cleans up most of the links. --Peter888 04:52, 6 November 2008 (UTC)

You're better than me :) Yeah, I only worked on the top part and left the bottom links as reference so i can play with them later if I wanted to, the colours are mostly temp just so there is something there to see what it looks like. I'd pick a softer variation later. Daworm 06:31, 6 November 2008 (UTC)

The design of the Main Page that I created is simply a base, feel free to take it and change it anyway you want. If you need to contact me, you can find me here: Puzzle Pirates Wikia. I am an administrator of the wikia located there. I stepped down from adminship when we moved over to the new wiki a few years ago. Eepeng 09:08, 2 December 2008 (UTC)

Info on Common Scams

Just wondering if anyone else feels this should be put in somewhere. I understand that the new trading system is meant to prevent this altogether, but we all know that's not going to happen. Its better to have a fixed source that players can refer to, rather than waiting for someone to get scammed before an alert goes out on the forums. And after a while the cycle repeats itself :P

Could call it something like "Mouse hunt safety tips" etc. -- Grexx 15:33, 1 December 2008 (UTC)
