== Bot mentioned rule breaking content ==
Over [[https://en.scratch-wiki.info/wiki/User_talk:Vinvicbros#Please_categorize_new_pages|here]], your bot mentioned an article with a title not ok for scratch. I'm letting you know. I didn't remove it because it's not something that will scar people for life, it's just not okay to name browser extensions on Scratch. {{User:han614698/signature}} 21:56, 6 September 2022 (UTC)
:Thanks for letting me know. I removed the title. I am not going to censor the revision however since I don't think it's a major enough policy/guideline violation to warrant that.<scratchsig>jvvg</scratchsig> 14:30, 7 September 2022 (UTC)

== Invitation to help out ==
I'm wondering if you could help continue the conversation at [[User_talk:CookiesAreSoooYummy#Your_Signature]] since I think that you have a lot of expertize on this subject. {{User:han614698/signature}} 00:58, 21 September 2022 (UTC)

== The captcha isn’t working ==

Sorry to contact you about this. It's not exactly related to the wiki. But I need your help. My school iPad blocks just about everything. I tried signing into one of my alts, and I accidentally misspelled my long password multiple times. I got onto the captcha page, but it's not loading! (Sorry if this image is kind of big. I don't have a compression site.)
[[File:SliverusNoCaptcha.jpeg]]
It says to enter the test below, but there ''is'' no text below because it's not loading on my iPad. I tried waiting it out, and nothing's happening. What do I do?
{{User:Super Scratch Bros20/Signature}} 16:25, 30 September 2022 (UTC)
:I really have no idea unfortunately. I have never had this happen to me. Since you mention the iPad blocks a lot of stuff, it's possible that the site hosting the captcha is blocked, but this is only speculation.<scratchsig>jvvg</scratchsig> 16:53, 30 September 2022 (UTC)
::Okay, thanks anyway. I'm going to just wait and see if the captcha expires at some point. {{User:Super Scratch Bros20/Signature}} 16:58, 30 September 2022 (UTC)

== I undid your revision ==

I undid your revision that removed "multiple consectutive "o"s" because accounts like "adhdjfnoooooooooo" are not taken AND not allowed. {{User:han614698/signature}} 20:35, 5 October 2022 (UTC)
:Oh, interesting. I wonder what the reasoning for that is. Maybe it's for testing or something.<scratchsig>jvvg</scratchsig> 21:22, 5 October 2022 (UTC)

== Thoughts? ==

What do you think about this? [[User:ThisIsAnAccount#Contact_the_owner]] There's a google form link which collects my email if I go to fill it out. That's not allowed anymore, is it? {{User:han614698/signature}} 11:47, 21 October 2022 (UTC)
:I think that was created before the ST specifically banned Google Forms. The bot owner is inactive these days so I'll remove it; anyone that really needs to contact them can use their talk page or Scratch profile.<scratchsig>jvvg</scratchsig> 20:43, 21 October 2022 (UTC)

== uh ==
That text you relobed from aoembodies sandbox wasn't personal info. It's a well known name from an internet prank. {{User:han614698/signature}} 21:19, 22 October 2022 (UTC)
:My understanding is the general rule the ST uses is personal info shouldn't be shared, even if it's fake as a joke.<scratchsig>jvvg</scratchsig> 02:47, 23 October 2022 (UTC)

::::What is the question?<scratchsig>jvvg</scratchsig> 15:35, 31 October 2022 (UTC)
:::::So, i was looking at the test wiki https://test.scratch-wiki.info/ (its a little hard to explain since its in a different language) and in the "translate-about" section theres the language tamil (தமிழ்) which is the language i speak so i just wanted to look at it so i clicked it.  But when i click "தமிழ்" instead of bringing up the tamil wiki or something its bringing up chinese for some reason. Just wanted to let you know.<scratchsig>SpaghettiAG852097-</scratchsig> 23:06, 1 November 2022 (UTC)

== 9 o username ==

i saw on the create account page https://en.scratch-wiki.info/wiki/Creating_an_Account that it said you couldnt create an account with more than 9 o's. Just wanted to ask why.

::Ok. i's just weird that you cant create a username with 9 o's. It could just be a bug or something. i tried creating an account with the word "pizza" like a month ago and it said "username not allowed" so i put it on the disscussion fourms and they said it was a bug and they fixed it and now you can create one with "pizza" in it<scratchsig>SpaghettiAG852097-</scratchsig> 02:12, 5 November 2022 (UTC)

== Rules ==

Hi,
I saw on your userpage you gave a link to your Flikr. I don't think giving social media profiles and stuff is allowed by the community guildlines (I may be wrong). I mean, it is your userpage but i just wanted to let you know.<scratchsig>SpaghettiAG852097-</scratchsig> 17:03, 18 December 2022 (UTC)
:I think Flickr is ok since it's more intended as a portfolio than a social media site.<scratchsig>jvvg</scratchsig> 15:28, 19 December 2022 (UTC)

== Question ==

Dear Jvvg,

I am wondering if you can give me the wikitext for the navigation bar, which I would love to implement in my wiki page
<scratchsig>Scratch_hellopizza</scratchsig> 04:16, 23 January 2023 (UTC)
:If you mean the navbar at the top ("Create", "Explore", ...) that's not wikitext, that's defined in code, available [https://github.com/InternationalScratchWiki/ScratchWikiSkin2/blob/master/ScratchWikiSkinTemplate.php#L42 here]. If you mean the "Navigation" section to the left, we render it [https://github.com/InternationalScratchWiki/ScratchWikiSkin2/blob/master/ScratchWikiSkinTemplate.php#L146 here] but the actual contents are defined in interface text. For example, [[mediawiki:Currentevents|the "Current Events" text]] and [[mediawiki:Currentevents-url|the "Current Events" link target]].<scratchsig>jvvg</scratchsig> 04:30, 23 January 2023 (UTC)

== Thank You ==

Dear jvvg, 
Thank you for your wonderful welcome to the wiki!
<br/>
Additionally, I have a few questions:
<br/>
is the scratch wiki open source?
<br/>
does the scratch wiki use php?
Sincerely, <scratchsig>Scratch_hellopizza</scratchsig> 00:28, 29 January 2023 (UTC)
:Yes, the Scratch Wiki is open source. It's powered by [[mediawikiwiki:MediaWiki|MediaWiki]] and runs on a number of extensions listed [[Special:Version|here]]. You can see all the ones purpose-built for the Scratch Wiki at [https://github.com/InternationalScratchWiki/ our GitHub organization]. Both MediaWiki itself and all of our extensions are built in PHP.<scratchsig>jvvg</scratchsig> 00:55, 29 January 2023 (UTC)

== Edit ==

Hello Jvvg,
I saw an {{plain link|1=https://en.scratch-wiki.info/w/index.php?title=Scratch_Wiki:April_Fools/List_of_Mathematical_Functions_Done_in_Scratch&diff=prev&oldid=320508|2=inappropriate edit}} so I edited it, but I wanted to let you know just in case the revison needed to be deleted. Thanks,{{User:SpaghettiAG852097-/signature}} 23:49, 10 February 2023 (UTC)

== WikiMonitor  ==

Hello Jvvg!

I was editing the wiki, when I noticed that WikiMonitor has not cleared the [[S:S|sandbox]] yet. It has been 18 hours and WikiMonitor has not cleared the sandbox. It usually clears every 4 hours. 
Thanks{{User:SpaghettiAG852097-/signature}} 02:20, 12 February 2023 (UTC)
:Also, the edit that the user made in the sandbox was made on Visual Editor so it could maybe be a problem with the upgrade and visual editor because before the upgrade it worked fine.{{User:SpaghettiAG852097-/signature}} 02:22, 12 February 2023 (UTC)
::Note: Just because the edit summaries say (Tag: Visual Edit) does not mean they were made with VE.{{User:han614698/signature}} 03:24, 12 February 2023 (UTC)
:::Then what does it mean? I thought it meant it was made with VE{{User:SpaghettiAG852097-/signature}} 03:50, 12 February 2023 (UTC)
::::It means that it was made with Visual Editor unless it says "(Tag: Visual Edit: Switched). If it says switched then it means that it was source editor{{User:SpaghettiAG852097-/signature}} 03:53, 12 February 2023 (UTC)
:::::Its not only a problem with clearing sandbox, WikiMonitor is COMPLETELY not working! I made a test unsigned post and I got no alert. But the [[user:WikiMonitor/Disable]] is still true.{{User:SpaghettiAG852097-/signature}} 03:30, 13 February 2023 (UTC)
{{outdent|5}}
Believe it or not, WikiMonitor functioned exactly as intended when it didn't notify you for the unsigned post. I checked the logs and it registered the unsigned post, but it gives you three minutes to add a signature in case you realize you forgot right after saving, and it looks like you [[Special:Diff/320589|did add a signature within three minutes]].<scratchsig>jvvg</scratchsig> 03:57, 13 February 2023 (UTC)
:Oh, thats nice that it gives you time to add your signature! But it did not clear the sandbox yet and it has been  2 whole days{{User:SpaghettiAG852097-/signature}} 14:21, 13 February 2023 (UTC)
::Weirdly enough I see the log entries for making the edit but it's not going through. Most likely the version upgrade obsoleted the APIs it needed. I'll have to look into that.<scratchsig>jvvg</scratchsig> 16:41, 13 February 2023 (UTC)

:The page was protected prior to the existence of the restriction on New Wikians being able to edit userpages. At this point the protection is purely symbolic, but gives yet another warning message when attempting to edit it, and is another safeguard in case there is a bug in the userspace restriction.<scratchsig>jvvg</scratchsig> 16:45, 11 May 2023 (UTC)
:: Maybe also becuase of vandilisim?

== Restarted WikiMonitor ==

I '''restarted''' (not shut off) WikiMonitor because it has not contributed since April 29. (i even purposely didn't sign my post just to get a wikimonitor notification, nothing on my talk){{User:2tables/Signature|action=edited}} 11:13, 12 May 2023 (UTC)
:WikiMonitor is currently down due to some issues on my end. Please be aware that turning the shut-off page on and back on again will not do anything.<scratchsig>jvvg</scratchsig> 14:03, 12 May 2023 (UTC)

== Very late welcome ==

I found a topic where a user invited someone to Scratch Wiki with the Welcome template over half a year after the user joined. Should it be removed, or is it honestly not that big of a deal? {{User:Super Scratch Bros20/Signature}} 04:53, 14 May 2023 (UTC)
:It's not a big deal, just leave it be.<scratchsig>jvvg</scratchsig> 20:19, 14 May 2023 (UTC)

== wikimonitor warning template? ==

Should we make template WikiMonitor warnings instead of just importing the source code? For example:<br>
* <nowiki>{{User:WikiMonitor/Warnings/Unsigned}}</nowiki> for unsigned posts
* <nowiki>{{User:WikiMonitor/Warnings/Uncategorized}}</nowiki> for new pages that are uncategorized
{{User:2tables/Signature}} 20:37, 17 May 2023 (UTC)
:There is minimal benefit to doing this, and it means that if we ever change the template all previous messages will suddenly change.<scratchsig>jvvg</scratchsig> 20:39, 17 May 2023 (UTC)

== Is my signature okay? ==

Is my signature okay? I know it uses a border, but i've seen many others like mine. {{User:2tables/Signature}} 12:53, 20 May 2023 (UTC)
:Per the [[Scratch Wiki:Custom Signatures|custom signature rules]], "[your] signature may not contain any background colors, other images, or borders." I think maybe we can relax the rule a bit, but as the rule currently stands you are out of compliance.<scratchsig>jvvg</scratchsig> 00:06, 21 May 2023 (UTC)

== I didn’t know you didn’t want the 429 page ==

I’m sorry for adding a 429 wiki page, but I feel like some people want to know more about this page, like the 429 link, where the project came from, or the pictures. I feel like the 429 should have a page, but this is coming from a inexperienced user so you will probably say no, I hope you have a great day anyways.

:I'm not saying we shouldn't document it at all, but I don't think it's a big enough thing that it deserves its own page. That's why I think it's good to have as a section of [[Error]] and have the page "429 Error" redirect to it. That way it gets documented and can easily be searched, but we avoid having a full-fledged article for a fairly minor thing.<scratchsig>jvvg</scratchsig> 02:38, 15 June 2023 (UTC) 
::But why is there all the other error codes except that one? <scratchsig>Mariofan4820</scratchsig> 00:07, 15 June 2023 (UTC)Mariofan4820
:::The other ones are a lot more commonly found or more significant in the Scratch community.<scratchsig>jvvg</scratchsig> 16:59, 15 June 2023 (UTC)

== Change the WikiMonitor border to purple <small>(maybe)</small> ==

So, currently WikiMonitor has a blue outlines for messages. The Scratch Team changed most of the colors on the site (links, navbar, etc..) from blue to purple. Along with this, many users have changed their signatures/pfp to reflect the change. So, could there possibly be a chance the border on WM notificatoins turns purple? Or does it not matter as much?{{User:2tables/Signature|action=yeah, okay, my signature uses blue links, but that's only because links are blue in normal HTML}} 19:15, 29 June 2023 (UTC)

== Why are there only about 2000 users on the Scratch Wiki when there are over 100 million users registered on Scratch? ==

At the time of writing, there were 2379 users on the Scratch Wiki, and according to the Scratch Statistics, there are 111668277 users registered. Using a calculator, the percentage of users on Scratch that registered for the Scratch Wiki is about 0.000213%. Why is this the case? <scratchsig>Ilikecereal1</scratchsig> 04:43, 2 July 2023 (UTC)
:There are some factors contributing to this situation:
:* The wiki is a selective place, requiring users to request an account and be approved rather than automatic registration;
:* Multiple accounts and banned users are not allowed in the Wiki,
:* Not all Scratch users are English speakers, and
:* There always are only a limited amount of users interested in the Wiki within Scratch community.
:{{User:Ahmetlii/sig}} 18:56, 2 July 2023 (UTC)

==How is my edit "naming and shaming?"==
In the article [[Project Tags]], all I did was provide an example of a project with spam tags. How is that "naming and shaming?" I'm confused. <scratchsig>Cutebross260IsBack</scratchsig> 05:07, 18 July 2023 (UTC)
:Spamming irrelevant tags is generally considered to be bad behavior, and you are linking to a specific project that exhibits that bad behavior, which could draw negative attention to the user who posted it.<scratchsig>jvvg</scratchsig> 14:29, 18 July 2023 (UTC)
::Well, the user who originally made this project is not on Scratch anymore so therefore they wouldn't get negative  attention. Then again, I wouldn't want [[users:The_Scratch_Archive|The_Scratch_Archive]] to get this treatment either because they've managed to recover dead links for projects that used to be on the Scratch Wiki. I'll leave "[[Project Tags]]" as it is, in that case. <scratchsig>Cutebross260IsBack</scratchsig> 16:08, 18 July 2023 (UTC)
:::It doesn't matter if the user is on Scratch or not, it's still a violation of Community Guidelines.<scratchsig>jvvg</scratchsig> 16:47, 18 July 2023 (UTC)

==You deleted the page i created "No Scratch November"==
you deleted the page i created and said it was a joke page even though everything was factual. Also was wondering if im allowed to recreate the page. Also type "no scratch november" in the comments of my scratch profile if you saw this please. <scratchsig>Iw131</scratchsig> 21:42, 31 July 2023 (UTC)
:No, you may not re-create the page. It does not refer to anything notable on Scratch that fits our Wiki guidelines.<scratchsig>jvvg</scratchsig> 22:17, 31 July 2023 (UTC)
::How is it not notable and how is it against the guidelines, you have an entire article about kaj, how is that not against the guidelines, also the entire kaj account was a joke he didnt actually hack anything, even though you're saying that no scratch november is a joke even though it is not. the censorbot literally censors the phrase, no scratch november. <scratchsig>Iw131</scratchsig> 00:27, 1 August 2023 (UTC)
:::The article about kaj is an exception to our normal rules since back in the 1.x days, there were a lot of rumors spread about kaj and users pretending to be them, and they played a large role in Scratch culture (to the point of being included in an an announcement and April Fools' joke). Had kaj simply threatened to hack people and then been banned, then there would not be an article about them. Meanwhile, I have never once seen "No Scratch November" mentioned on the Scratch website, and the fact that it is censored is not sufficient reason to include it; there are hundreds of things that are censored that we do not document since there is no documentation or educational value in doing so.<scratchsig>jvvg</scratchsig> 00:53, 1 August 2023 (UTC)

== Two version of the block shape images ==

There seems to be two images for the block shapes that share the exact same purpose. One is found on the block shape articles themselves (such as [[File:The shape of a C Block SVG.svg|30px]]) and another version on the [[Blocks]] article (such as [[File:C block grey.svg|30px]]). Do you think we should keep the black version or the gray version?<scratchsig>Ametz807</scratchsig> 21:33, 8 September 2023 (UTC)
:The gray one came first, so probably that one.<scratchsig>jvvg</scratchsig> 21:39, 8 September 2023 (UTC)
::Do you have any preference over the color?<scratchsig>Ametz807</scratchsig> 22:27, 8 September 2023 (UTC)
:::I prefer the gray one solely because it shows up better in both dark and light mode, whereas the black one completely disappears in dark mode.{{User:Kenny2scratch/sig}} 00:15, 10 September 2023 (UTC)
::::Alright, I updated the pages to have the gray version (the black versions should probably be deleted but I can't be bothered to add the templates).<scratchsig>Ametz807</scratchsig> 02:25, 10 September 2023 (UTC)

== Scratch 0.x pages ==

There are currently 15 Scratch 0.x pages on the Wiki (plus an extra one that's a work in progress), although there are many more 0.x versions. However, making a page for every single 0.x version would be unfeasible and pointless since there are over 100 0.x versions that have been discovered. I suggest that pages should be made for versions in a specific time frame (for example, "Scratch versions from April to June of 2006") rather than pages for specific versions. What do you think of this idea?<scratchsig>Ametz807</scratchsig> 22:40, 10 September 2023 (UTC)

== Hi Jvvg ==

Can I ask you a question?

Like, the bot Template something is always zipping files up for me, compressing them online, but is there a way to make Scratch Wiki allow auto-compressing? Since compressing manually is difficult, maybe Scratch Wiki can embed an automated compresser can compress up files automatically every upload, so new uploads won't get a message "You didn't zip it!" in my talk?

Just a little suggestion. I guess that would make wiki editing easier.

Thank you!
