MuseWiki in portuguese

I've read a post in which someone said that would like to create a musewiki in german. I don't actually speak german but I wouldn't mind translating stuff to portuguese too... I'm sure that there's a lot of people from different countries that wouldn't mind either. --InesMarques 01:20, 17 June 2008 (BST)

My first thought is that we'd need a trusted person for each language, whose responsibility it would be to ensure information is accurate and that it is presented in a wholly objective manner.

Secondly, can we have subdomains without a more expensive hosting/registra service? --Tene 18:22, 17 June 2008 (BST)

I personally don't think there's enough people to do an entire translation of an entire wiki. It also becomes a grey area since I wouldn't be able to manage it and it's probably not worth doubling the database up with a new language. Subdomains and what not are fine, I get unlimited amount, the problem is mainly the thoughts you've brought up Tene and the fact that I don't honestly see many people taking part. --crazybobbles 19:55, 17 June 2008 (BST)

Perhaps we could try one language with, say, a pledge of twenty people to regularly contribute? I just think that if there is going to be a non-English wiki, it'd be better to have it here, with a system in place to shove the groupieism out of the door, so to speak. --Tene 19:59, 17 June 2008 (BST)

Well the wiki was built with 25 people I think. Can't remember the exact number, but that should be my condition to have a section for it. The reason why I'm not too keen on this is also because it requires a lot of effort to actaully get another language sorted. But yeah, see if there's enough. --crazybobbles 20:53, 17 June 2008 (BST)

I think it's a good idea but there aren't lots of contributors to the English Musewiki, so imagine for a foreign language (I suppose a French Musewiki would be the one with more contributors, but not enough probably). I see this happening in the future, but not yet. --Susurr0 11:03, 18 June 2008 (BST)

MuseWiki German

Hi, I want to create a Wiki of Muse in German. So I want to translate the content and connect it with your wiki. --User:cag-live 22:55, 19 August 2006 (BST)

I'm fine with you using our content (as long as you credit our site) but perhaps connecting it would be a problem, we could easily make musewiki a multilingual page, so it would be de.musewiki.org or fr.musewiki.org but with stuff like that you'd need a whole troop of foreign people translating the stuff.--crazybobbles 00:30, 29 August 2006 (BST)

That magazine feature ...

When was the MuseWiki featured in the magazine (well, I seem to recall it was once featured in one) - was it the Rolling Stone? They liked the gigs section I seem to remember (yes, I'm daring to write this in my ucas statement xD). --Tene 00:00, 30 October 2006 (GMT)

Guitarist magazine hehe, I'll do a proper scan of it now --crazybobbles 10:36, 30 October 2006 (GMT)

Recent changes feed

As of the 1.12 upgrade, the feed no longer displays the changes table. Not sure if there's anything you can do about this, but if it's simply a matter of changing a setting, that would be nice. --Tene 13:33, 16 May 2008 (BST)

Could you elaborate on the issue, I've looked a recent changes, the rss import plugin and other stuff and they all seem to be working fine --crazybobbles 13:47, 16 May 2008 (BST)

The feed used to show both summary and changes table (like history pages). Now it just shows the summary, if there is one. --Tene 13:53, 16 May 2008 (BST)

New, sans-changes,

Old, with changes

Nintendo Piano Thingy

Hi Crazy bobbles,

I attended the Muse gig in Melbourne (Rod Laver Arena) on 15th of November 07, and right before they played Feeling Good, Matt had a bit of a play around on the piano and played a song that sounded a lot like a Nintendo song.

I loved it at the time, but was never able to find an audio snippet of this song (from the Melbourne gig or any other gig for that matter), until I looked again today and someone had uploaded the whole of Feeling Good to Youtube, so I extracted the audio.

I advise you to have a listen and see what you think. Maybe it could be put up in the Riff's and Jam's page.

Cheers, Butterflies and Microcuts. (26th August)

Ampersands

...would be nice if MuseWiki were fixed wrt ampersands in page titles ... it would make setlist templates a bit simpler. --Tene 03:39, 15 July 2009 (BST)

Tried it & it didn't work --crazybobbles 09:50, 15 July 2009 (BST)

Mm, it's working to a degree. Can't view special pages related to an article with an ampersand-containing title ... and it doesn't work on user pages: the wiki adds another first word to the end. The latter problem doesn't occur when using index.php?title= though. :-/ --Tene 10:32, 15 July 2009 (BST)

Shit stains, well that's the only implementation I found on mediawiki :( things would be smoother if i had htdoc access and all. though i probably can ask the support folks to add it....but yeah, restricted to htaccess implementation. Not to mention me trying this on a server with htdoc access and totally failling getting short urls altogether :( it's one of those tedious tasks that takes millions of trial and error attempts --crazybobbles 10:37, 15 July 2009 (BST)

Mm, the fact that it works at all now is good. ^^ --Tene 12:33, 15 July 2009 (BST)

Old Skins?

Hey Bob :) I was just wondering if it is possible to put the old skin up, the one before we got this current black one, I looked in the preferences, there isn't anything like the one we had back then. PLEASE!!?? I'm very crap with using the black one Thanks --Megglen 11:53, 17 July 2009 (BST)

Yup yup, will look into making a NEW white one... i prefer white myself so will be dishing out that bad boy at some point, mind you the black one does grow a bit... (just bad for my reading) --crazybobbles 11:56, 17 July 2009 (BST)

Wahey! Just what I love, new skins. But I am getting used to the black one a bit... But it puts me out when I'm flicking from black to white xD --Megglen 12:07, 17 July 2009 (BST)

Showbiz Picture Discs

Hi! I was wondering where you came across the Showbiz picture discs and if they are confirmed legit??? A couple of years ago I was obsessed with making a MUSE discography, (I still have tons of pictures on my pc) but I never saw those. And the last time I checked on here, they weren't added I think. Do you have info on them?

Its been a hard days night

And ive been working like a dog -tacojjj
