fileadmin update
is it possible to get an upgrade for the fileadmin group to include delete files/pages, there are some corrupted files/thumbnails/extra pages i'd like to delete/reupload, or would it be better for me to just tag the pages/images new template for deletion for an admin to clear? anyways please let me know thx.

- Thank you for the update :) Lorak990 11:57, 8 April 2011 (CDT)
spam prevention extensions
looks like there are a number of antispam/blacklist/spambot lookup extensions that can be installed, or activate the ConfirmEdit extension that's already installed (the latter may just deter any legitimate edits as it requires a confirmation code to submit the edit) [1] Lorak990 23:21, 3 June 2011 (CDT)
Important !!
Hi, Zoy do you still play juggernaut? or you quit the game ? Thanks
spam/page changes
seems we have another bot attack, working on rolling back the changes and protecting the template/high traffic pages.
- This current attack, is out of control. i revert an exit and within 4 minutes it gets edited again.. can we implement the captcha with enter xxxxxx random code to confirm this edit for anonymous edits. Lorak990
Juggernaut game
Hi I am one of the Polish Illuminator and I would like to know if I can help in the development zoywiki, and more precisely the Juggernaut? I already have experience in editing Wikipedia:)

#varpull
Hi there,
I like some of the things you have done with the site. :) But in particular, I really love what you have done with the #varpull extension in templates. Is that extension downloadable or available for general use?

ColorLink and color variable
Hi Zoy, Not sure who to ask about this, but since you're the wiki owner... How come the colors for the Lots/ColorLink and the color variable used in the templates don't use the same colors? For example, I can't tell the Item Template to use the "yellow" color defined on the wiki (color template for yellow), and when the Light Blue gets used in the item template it produces a green color, and when I try and use it with the color link, it uses the real light blue color? I'm trying to figure out how to use the teal-ish green color for text on Screaming Barracuda's item page. The same result for violet and purple: if I use purple in the Item Template, it produces a violet color, but when I use it as a ColorLink, it produces the normal shade of nearly unreadable purple. I'm sure there's something I'm missing. Klaxxin 08:17, 23 July 2012 (CDT)
Captcha on account creation
Seems like we need a Captcha on account creation (if there isn't one already -- I don't recall). Wiki's started getting attacked by bots. Klaxxin (talk) 09:17, 31 July 2012 (MDT)
Add deletion category to special pages?
I finally added a delete template, Template:Delete to the wiki which automatically places pages into a special category called "Candidates for Deletion." Could you add Candidates for Deletion to the lists of special pages? You can use the delete template by pasting {{Delete}} onto any page. It makes a nice, shiny red banner on the page.

Sidebar
How to I access the sidebar? I did it once before, but I don't remember how I got there. Klaxxin (talk) 16:11, 3 August 2012 (MDT)
Cosmetic stuff for LotS
I'm still not great at making stuff look pretty, but the LotS wiki definitely needs a little help. Would you be interested at all in helping beautify the LotS wiki? Some of the things I'd like to do are beyond my knowledge and skill. I'm bringing this up, because that card template for LoH in your sandbox looks pretty spectacular.

Re: Strange Image on LotS
Per your question, 
in article LotS/experiment/omegadeathmachine is valid. It's a QR code that's used as part of puzzle hunt chain. Doomcat (talk) 15:31, 7 August 2012 (MDT)
- Cool. Thanks for checking up on this, though. Always appreciate your feedback. :-) Doomcat (talk) 07:33, 8 August 2012 (MDT)
Re: Collapsed Template
Aha! That's exactly what I was looking for. I've got a somewhat complex sort of representation I'm going for on some of these requirement displays, and that collapsed template is definitely what I need for this test.
upload error
getting this error: when trying to upload a blank/transparent placeholder LotS_Any.png
Upload warning

Personal CSS and JS files
Hey Zoy,
So, according to http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Interface/Stylesheets I should be able to create a file like http://zoywiki.com/index.php/User:Doomcat/common.css and it should get injected into every page that I see when I'm logged in. However, that doesn't seem to be working for me, and I wonder if you have some expert wiki knowledge that I'm lacking. Thanks! Doomcat (talk) 02:43, 11 August 2012 (MDT)
- I know that's true (needing capitalization) on MediaWiki: namespaced CSS, but I think the personal ones are lowercase. If you visit http://zoywiki.com/index.php?title=User:Zoycite/Common.css&action=edit it should give you some red text like Warning: There is no skin "Common". Custom .css and .js pages use a lowercase title, e.g. User:Foo/vector.css as opposed to User:Foo/Vector.css.
- Cool, as soon as you flipped whatever switch, my common.js (which just contained alert("test") started working. Thanks! Doomcat (talk) 14:17, 13 August 2012 (MDT)
deleting old users
Zoy, isn't there a feature that lets you delete old users that haven't logged on in a while? I think the best criteria would be to delete any users that haven't logged during the past 365 days, as opposed to users that just happened to make accounts during 2010.

- getting an error - You do not have permission to <action-usermerge>, for the following reason:
The action you have requested is limited to users in the group: Bureaucrats wondering if there's a way to filter by blocked, i know we blocked a whole bunch a while back that might narrow down the list Lorak990 (talk) 12:37, 13 August 2012 (MDT)
