RayWiki has been updated to the latest stable release of MediaWiki. Given the recent CSS glitches with Firefox, I recoloured the whole theme from scratch, so please let me know if you find any colours missing!

Great job in the recolours, Hunch! I think the RayWiki does looks more attractive and with more visible texting. :)

Ah ok sorry I was so busy dating I ended up missing that...

Only thing that needs to be recoloured is the bar at the top of each file which is still piercing white, otherwise I can't think of much else wrong.

The ‘includeonly’ template code doesn’t seem to be functioning for all articles.

I’ve edited some of the templates in the last few days to add some new headings and arrange them in a more logical way, but I’m fairly sure I didn’t do anything that could have caused this. Was it the upgrade?

Interesting, I was just viewing the RTAS Wiki not an hour ago to find some pictures of Lac-Mac so I could model him. I also found a problem with clicking on the pictures to expand them, they just give an error.

Also, do you have to be a contributor to create an article about yourself, or can you just be a standard user?

We don’t create articles about ourselves. Are you talking about user pages?

Nobody would complain if you made one, but I don’t really see the point of having a user page on a wiki you don’t edit.

Ah, I figured the user pages were more related to your activity on RaymanPC in general, not solely the Wiki.

Some colours are still missing (see the search page), but I can't figure out how to edit them in that damn CSS file.

As concerns the templates, class="hiddenStructure" is obsolete (not sure it's ever worked). Try style="display:none;" instead, that'll work fine.

Now, all that's left is the feature that will provide a view of the global usage of files on all versions of RayWiki. Since all of them store their files on the English version in order to avoid duplicates and errors, we need to see which versions are using each file over there.

Wasn't sure whereabouts to post this, but could one of the higher-ups update the news feed on RayWiki?

Those are templates, the one you're looking at is this one: https://raymanpc.com/wiki/en/Template:Game

If you want to add it into an article, add it in like so:

Code: Select all

{{Game
| name = 
| image = 
| published by = 
| developed by = 
| directed by =
| designed by =
| programmed by =
| art by =
| written by =
| soundtrack by =
| release date = 
| genre = 
| gameplay mode =
| platforms = 
| ratings = 
| distribution media =
| system requirements = 
}}
Delete the fields you don't want, and you end up with the information box you want. So for example, for the RTAS article, you get:

Code: Select all

{{Game
| name = Rayman: The Animated Series
| image = [[Image:Raymandvdf.jpg|center|180px]]
| published by = [[Ubisoft|Ubi Soft]]
| developed by = [[Ubisoft|Ubi Soft]]
| release date = 1999
| genre = CGI animated series
| platforms = DVD, VHS, televised broadcast
}}
Which gives:
